Chapter 171: Palm
You Xue looked at the farce in the field coldly, and turned around silently and was about to leave, but saw a familiar figure.
It's Qingyang in disguise.
Isn't Zhen Yunze busy with the Zhong Yan Festival, why is Qingyang, who is serving on the left and right, here?
She quickly swept up to the third floor, and when she saw Qingyang flash into a private room, she thought about it and knocked on the door.
The door quickly opened.
It was no surprise that Qingyang's expressionless face glanced at You Xue silently, and he stepped aside to invite her in, but he walked out of the private room and closed the door softly.
Zhen Yunze was kneeling in front of the black and white chess game, and beckoned to her with a slight smile on his head.
Since the separation last night, it has only been a day, this person seems to have changed somewhere, You Xue can't say, she pressed the strangeness in her heart, and stepped forward to ask, "Why are you here?"
"I'm going to enter the palace to see Brother Wang later, do you want to come with me?"
You Xue smiled in surprise: "I plan to enter the palace, but I save my energy with you, then I will continue to be your little follower!"
Zhen Yunze coughed lightly with his fist to his lips, but his smile couldn't stop rippling, as if there was nothing embarrassing last night, which made You Xue a little ashamed.
You Xue sat down and played with the cup: "You have also seen the situation on the first floor, right?"
"I haven't seen him for many years, he is getting more and more interesting, Wanfulou's new gadgets have only emerged three months ago, judging from the means he is so familiar with, it is not ten days and eight days to play. Zhen Yunze chuckled faintly.
"So, he's already in the royal capital?"
"The king of the South China Sea is not inferior to the first emperor in a good war, his ambition is unpredictable, this time, the only son openly made this kind of movement here, with the family motto of the South China Sea Palace, it should be deliberate, if it is not for you and Miss Yuan secretly intervening, there should be something more interesting. β
You Xue raised her lips and smiled, and tapped the chessboard with her knuckles very unceremoniously, "Lord Rui, this is the territory of the Blazing Li League, and you can't make trouble here." β
"You," Zhen Yunze smiled helplessly: "Why do you think I'm here, don't worry, if you don't show up, I can also make him deflated, but what did you say to Miss Yuan, Qingyang said that she was very exaggerated when she smiled and bent over." β
You Xue smiled: "Yanqing will not lose, and this prince of the South China Sea sent his head over, as a benevolent citizen, as long as he strips naked and runs around the city, shouting that he is the prince of the South China Sea." β
Zhen Yunze was stunned, and glanced at the smug woman opposite with a very complicated mood, not knowing where she learned such a bad thing.
However, although rough and brutal, the effect should be better, win-win!
"He's not really stupid, don't be fooled by his disguise. Zhen Yunze said, but his eyes fell on her slender and white fingertips playing with Baizi, and the hand in the sleeve moved, recalling the events of last night, he sighed in his heart, after all, he still stopped paying respect.
You Xue smiled slyly, with an indescribable and profound appearance.
Zhen Yunze looked at her thoughtfully for a moment, his eyes flashed slightly, and he nodded, "Don't overdo it, the king of the South China Sea is unfathomable, although he was far away from the royal capital in his early years, he is still a big tree with deep roots." β
"Don't worry!"
Only then did Yunze get up, and naturally stretched out his hand to her, "Let's go." β
You Xue looked at his bony, slender and powerful palm, tilted her head and smiled lightly, stretched out her hand and struck lightly at his palm, "I'll go and change my clothes first!" β
The night was dark and the air was damp, making it very uncomfortable.
However, it was wonderful to be able to step into the palace gate and enter the front hall for the first time in the dark night.
You Xue followed behind Zhen Yunze, a little proud fox fake tiger might, raised her eyebrows to look at Qingyang, and asked softly: "Why are you so strange recently, could it be that the whiplash has recurred?"
Qingyang glanced at her silently, then turned his head and remained silent, continuing to be expressionless.
This time, the emperor was waiting for them in the imperial study.
After the three of them saluted the emperor, You Xue unexpectedly did not see the figure of the rising person, and it seemed that Zhen Yunze had settled his matter.
"The King of the South China Sea, the Marquis of Zhenxi, the King of Guanxiang, and the envoys of all countries have all stayed in Tongwu Garden today, and I heard that Guluo You summoned the imperial doctor twice, do you know?"
"Both times it was Doctor Chen, and the younger brother has been sending people to keep an eye on it, and there is nothing abnormal. β
"Since the envoys of the Jialuo Kingdom arrived in the royal capital, they have handed over three excerpts asking to see, but they were all pressed by the widows, and after they settled in Tongwu Garden, they did not go to the Yilan Palace to see the Guluo You?"
"Since Si Yao, the general of Luoluo City, fled to the northwest and joined the Tianjiu Ge army, the royal family of Jia Luo has a clear attitude towards Gu Luoyou, and it seems that he is left to fend for himself and no longer cares, and his ministers think that this is an illusion they have made. β
"The queen suggested to the widow today that she should be relieved of the trap of Guluo You, and let her walk freely in Tongwu Garden. β
Zhen Yunze glanced at the emperor's expression, frowned, and said: "Please think twice, Brother Wang, this woman has demon magic and bad intentions, and it is already the mercy of the monarch to imprison her in the Yilan Palace." β
Zhen Tengfeng's expression was indifferent, noncommittal.
These two people did not shy away from her when discussing state affairs in front of her, You Xue had a cold sweat on her forehead, but she still calmly checked the emperor's pulse and withdrew her hand, opened the small wooden box in her sleeve, and pushed a pill with a golden luster and a refreshing medicinal fragrance in front of the emperor.
Seeing the surprised eyes of several people, "This is the first one, it depends on the effect of the king to increase or decrease the formula, please take it before going to bed tonight." β
Zhen Tengfeng nodded, and without the slightest doubt, he closed the box with his own hands and tucked it in his sleeve.
You Xue breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to take the opportunity to retire, only to hear the emperor hand to Zhen Yunze a drawing in front of the table with neat lines outlined with a thin wolf pen, "This is the reconstruction map of Luocheng in Northern Xinjiang handed over by Zhenxi Hou this time." β
Zhen Yunze took it without looking closely, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Lin Zijian is really worthy of being a genius." β
The emperor smiled faintly: "The one who drew this picture is a new guest he recruited, called Yu Mingxuan." β
You Xue's heart suddenly suddenly, peeking at Zhen Yunze's expression, seeing that his face remained unchanged, he just looked at the sketch drawn and concentrated, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and guessed in his heart that such a roundabout way to raise Yu Mingxuan to the surface, could it be that King Rui and Lin Zijian were secretly plotting?
It seems that Zhen Yunze is also a drama spirit.
But Yu Mingxuan moved quickly, and he didn't confess himself, which is good!
"After tomorrow's sacrifice, the widow will hand over this matter to the Ministry of Industry at the court meeting to start advancing, this matter is imminent, and one more day of delay is a hidden danger in northern Xinjiang, and you will personally supervise all matters at that time, if there is disobedience, the black armor army can exercise the right to cut first and then play. β
"Brother Wang, the Black Armor Army is mixed, and it will take time to complete the army, can the subordinate brother first transfer people from Aoshan to the Black Armor Army to carry out the king's order?"
"Everything is fully deployed by you, and there is no need to play everything," Zhen Tengfeng paused, and then said: "Although this Yu Mingxuan was born in a merchant family, he is quite respected by the Marquis of Zhenxi, if it is really as he said, you can make an exception to promote, and take advantage of this to clean up, the frontier is heavy, and there can be no more cool celebration!"
"Brother of the courtiers!"
At this time, there was a muffled thunder and tremor outside the closed door of the temple, and the lightning suddenly appeared outside the carved edge window.
You Xue stood beside Zhen Yunze, endured it, and still asked: "There is something unknown about the people's daughter, if it rains heavily tomorrow, will the sacrifice still be carried out?" Although she is not a god stick, but looking at the sky tonight, tomorrow will definitely be a rainy day, maybe it will rain heavily in the second half of the night.
Zhen Yunze glanced at the emperor, and he was also worried in his heart.
The emperor nodded and said, "If it is really heavy rain, it will be a blessing from heaven, which is a good thing!"
You Xue was helpless, "Are you sure the king can complete the sacrifice ceremony for two hours in the heavy rain?"
She said it very politely, but no one present meant to blame.
Zhen Tengfeng smiled faintly: "The widow can trust you." She knew, so she deliberately sneaked into the palace late at night to deliver medicine to him.
You Xue rolled her eyes inwardly, and unceremoniously pulled Qiong Qi out as a cover, "This medicine is from the hands of Dr. Qiong, and her old man said that the king must be calm and calm when taking this medicine, and he can't worry about being affected, otherwise it will be difficult to exert the effect of the medicine." β
"Is Dr. Joan's injuries getting better?"
"I can get out of bed and walk. β
Zhen Tengfeng got up and smiled faintly, "That's good!"
He didn't say anything more, just looked at Zhen Yunze: "Tomorrow is the first time in seven years that you have ascended the altar with the widow, and from tomorrow, the widow will restore all your power and honor, what to do, do you understand?"
Zhen Yunze's face changed, and he immediately knelt on the ground, "Brother Wang, it is not appropriate at this time, no matter what the identity of the younger brother is, he will do his best to assist Brother Wang's great cause, just this matter, please Brother Wang take back his life!"
The emperor closed his eyes deeply, "In the hearts of widows, you are a brother first, and then a courtier. He stretched out his thin pale hand and gently pressed it on the shoulder of Zhen Yunze, "Now, when the brothers were of the same heart. β
He squinted at the dark night outside the hall, and his eyes were also heavy: "Since you were born in the emperor's family, you inherit the responsibility of the dawn of the world, even if you die, your blood is the blood of the royal family, even if you are relieved of your military power and willing to be robbed of your title, you still can't escape the responsibility." β
"Brother Wang..."Yun Ze has been traveling all year round, and he has been used to secretly assisting the emperor in acting, and he doesn't want to get involved in the intrigue of the court and politics at all, he frowned tightly, but he couldn't say anything to refute.
You Xue understands that after the defeat of You Hong's battle, if Zhen Yunze did not take the blame, and stayed away from the court only to find a miracle medicine for the emperor, the emperor would not be in a difficult situation until now, he endured all kinds of criticism from the people against him as a king, and walked on thin ice to balance the forces of all parties in the court, promulgated strategies, he sacrificed all his personal love, wrestled with his descendants, and maintained the difficult acting skills of respecting and loving the queen, even though he was tortured by illness, he clearly remembered his responsibilities and missions as an emperorγ
And now, after holding on to the battlefield for so long, is he finally about to start a quiet transfer of power?
Could it be that even if she couldn't bear to say it, Zhen Tengfeng herself realized that even if she was cured, there would not be a few years to waste?
Just when she was thinking wildly, she heard the emperor's cold voice say word by word: "The widow knows that the death of the emperor's aunt and General You's ambush are a thorn in your heart, and you are devoted to it, and you have fled the royal city and gone away for many years, all because of her!
