Chapter 40: The King of Brocade

Kaoru Yutai has no impression of the man in front of him, and he is not a local when he listens to the accent, and with the phrase "this king", the identity of the other party is clear at a glance.

"Lord Ye is not in Qinzhou recently, I don't know if His Highness is ......"

"Oh...... Not there. The man didn't answer her question, and looked straight at her with deep eyes, "So, you have full authority to deal with the recent affairs of the government?"

Kaoru Tandai wasn't sure what he meant by asking the question, and nodded slowly. Although this person is smiling all the time, he doesn't feel very kind to her. People who are direct to others tend to have very sharp instincts, and sometimes inexplicable feelings can reveal something very unusual.

She looked back, and the two men who had been with her were gone.

"That's really hard work. The man closed the curtain of the carriage, and the driver drove his horse willingly. Kaoru Tai was about to speak, but he heard the other party say again, "No need to entertain, this king has a place to live." ”

Kaoru stood in place, watching the other party go away, and some of the incongruous voices around him quickly disappeared. The lights on the street are dim and dim, and they are all colorful and green, and there are some that are not clear.

***

The person who came did not hide his identity, he was the uncle of the five emperors of the Holy Emperor today, and the regent King Lian was a brother, because he had stayed in the fiefdom for a long time, he often went to the capital to run, and he came to Qinzhou on the way back this year.

Of course, Yutai Kaoru heard that this was fake, and out of Qinzhou was the country of wild geese, and there would be no mention of it at all.

The return date of Ye Chi's side has not been determined for a long time, and Qinzhou has ushered in another prince, she is inexplicably a little irritable, so she simply plunges into business.

King Jin has been honest for a few days, and it seems that he really just came to Qinzhou to play as he said. Kaoru knew that it was definitely not that simple, and sure enough, she received an invitation from King Jin three days later, inviting her to have a meal.

Ye Chi once said that King Lian was his benefactor, and although this sibling brother didn't look very friendly, he might really be Ye Chi's old acquaintance. She had a slight doubt in her mind, but decided to go anyway.

The place where King Jin invited her to eat was one of the largest restaurants in the city, and the most expensive private rooms were independent pavilions surrounded by ponds, which were elegant and chic.

When Kaoru Yutai arrived, King Jin was already sitting there waiting for her, with a silver crown in his hair and a white robe inlaid with patterns that looked extraordinary, and when he saw her, the corners of his lips curled: "When I was in the capital, this king had seen many female officials, but most of them were not young, and Lord Tantai was really young and promising." ”

Kaoru Tantai doesn't like to talk politely to people, and these social things are usually done by Ye Chi. She didn't answer, but smiled symbolically, "Your Highness is looking for me for the Fan family's coal kiln?"

King Jin raised his hand and poured her a cup of tea, even this action looked very arrogant, "How do you know?"

"Because the timing of your appearance is too coincidental. Yutai Kaoru looked at him without waves, "Fan Yuan was fearless when he came to me, presumably the backstage is very hard, except for the state officials, it is probably the prince." ”

"Now that you know, the king won't beat around the bush. King Jin narrowed his eyes and took a sip of tea, "The Fan family is indeed related to this king, except for the illegal coal kiln last time, the rest of the industries are legitimate and legal, and adults can check this as much as they want." Illegal assets do need to be rectified, but ...... If the legitimate business declines because of this, it is not a good thing for Qinzhou. ”

The implication is that she wants to reduce the amount of the fine to a minimum.

Commercial bribery is not uncommon in the National Defense Commission, and Kaoru Tantai often heard her mother tell about it when she was a child, but it was the first time she encountered it. She was a little glad that the bet with Ye Chi had lost, otherwise she couldn't imagine how she would face such a situation when she was a newborn calf.

She bowed her head politely and said, "Your Highness should also know that during Lord Ye's mission, the lower officials are only temporarily in charge of the affairs of the state capital, and have no real power, or is it better to wait for the state pastor to come back and then deal with it, what does Your Highness think?"

"Since Lord Tantai said so, this king naturally has no opinion. King Jin smiled with her, couldn't see the love, and pointed to the cold dishes on the table, "Don't talk about such a disappointing topic today, just eat an ordinary meal." ”

He was about to summon someone to serve hot dishes, but Yutai Kaoru covered his stomach silently, and said, "I'm really sorry, Xia Guan is unwell today, and I don't want to disturb His Highness Yaxing, so I will leave first." ”

King Jin didn't say anything to keep her, staring at her back for a long time, until she disappeared through the corridor, and then he slowly withdrew his gaze. At this moment, a tall, thin man in black walked out from behind, looking like an entourage, and stood without saying a word.

"I don't have any scheming, but I'm very smart and knows how to push everything on Ye Chi. King Jin took a sip of tea, and a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, "I really can't wait to meet him." ”

***

Kaoru felt a little hungry when she got home, she hadn't gone to buy vegetables since Ye Chi left, and when she was hungry, she went to Meng Yuqing's place to eat. But it's getting late, and it's over tonight.

As soon as she sat down in the room, she heard someone knocking on the door outside, and when she opened the door, she realized that it was Peaches standing at the door, and there was a middle-aged man on crutches beside her, described as withered, haggard, but with a bright smile, holding a basket in her hand, which contained eggs and other food, and stretched out her hand to her: "...... I'm Momoko's father, and I haven't been able to thank you because of my health, which is a little bit of heart. ”

Kaoru Yutai hurriedly took the basket that looked heavy, and accepted it after some hesitation, "Sir, come in and sit down." ”

"No, no, I have other things to do. The man obviously didn't want to enter the door, rubbed his hands embarrassedly, and pushed the peach forward, "It's this kid who wants to borrow a book again, so I'll drop by to deliver something." ”

He really didn't mean to stay long, his cloudy eyes showed obvious joy, and he limped away after leaving the peach behind. Kaoru Yutai stood in place with the basket, and suddenly heard the peach and said, "Daddy is very happy, and when he goes out, he is afraid that you will feel shabby and refuse to accept it." ”

Kaoru Tandai didn't answer, inexplicably feeling that this heavy basket made her feel very steady, and couldn't help but smile.

In fact, Momoko didn't just come here to borrow books this time. Children's imagination is always very rich, and the students in the academy think that Ye Chi's errand is just an excuse, but in fact, they were dumped by Kaoru Tai, and they have no face to face their parents and fellow villagers, and they feel that the gentle and elegant Lord Ye is really pitiful.

Lord Tantai is a negative man.

Of course, Momoko knew that this was impossible, and in order to confirm that she was right, she specially ran to inquire, and sure enough, just as she thought, Kaoru Yutai was also waiting for Hachike to return.

With the ingredients, Kaoru Tandai steamed a bowl of egg custard in the kitchen and then went into the room.

Although the Fan family's coal kiln makes money, it will not let a prince come to Qinzhou in person. King Jin must have had other reasons to come, but she couldn't guess it, she just thought it had something to do with Ye Chi.

Is it an acquaintance? Intuition sues sΓΉ her, not quite like it.

Kaoru Tandai closed her eyes, probably because she had been so tired lately, that she had fallen asleep unconsciously. Momoko came to her after choosing a book, and when she found that she was asleep, she tiptoed to cover her with a dress, copied the name of the book she had borrowed on a piece of paper and put it in her hand, and carefully closed the door and left.

However, Kaoru Tandai only slept for an hour when he was awakened by a sudden knock on the door.

Coming to knock on the door was Tao Xun, the head catcher who had just risen this year, although he was more mature, but he was still a little impetuous, and he hurriedly knocked on the door, until Kaoru Tai rubbed his eyes, and hurriedly said: "My lord, King Jin has been attacked!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦οΌβ€

Yutai Kaoru woke up in an instant, and hurriedly followed him to a separate courtyard where King Jin temporarily lived. Although the other party refused her hospitality, she did not do nothing, and ordered people to stay outside for twelve hours in case anything went wrong.

She wasn't worried about it originally, although Qinzhou was chaotic, it was just fighting with each other, no one was stupid enough to do something to a prince, and there was no motive or meaning. So the Assassins...... Where did it come from?

Tao Xun spoke to her incoherently along the way, probably saying that they changed shifts twice a day, each time two people guarded, and when they changed shifts half an hour ago, they found that the catch at the door was almost dizzy, and when they entered the house, they knew that King Jin was attacked, but the guards around him were masters, and in general there was no danger.

Kaoru Tai breathed a sigh of relief, and when he arrived, he saw King Jin lying behind the screen, and standing outside was a man in black holding a sword, which should be the "guard" in Tao Xun's mouth.

"Your Highness...... Frightened, aren't you?" She looked around, there was no sign of a fight in the room, and the guard was neatly dressed against the wall, not at all like he had just met an assassin, "Your safety is still ...... by the government office"

"No need. King Jin interrupted her, and despite the screen, she could hear that the other party was very relaxed, "The two catchers you arranged fainted without even making a sound, I don't count on them." ”

Kaoru heard his sarcasm, but there was no way, although these fast punches and kicks were not bad, they would definitely not be able to hold three moves when they met a real master.

She sighed, and was about to say something, when she suddenly glanced at the window, and immediately took a step, and at the moment when the window was wide open, she made a few moves with a person who had been hiding outside, but the other party's steps were very light, and when she saw that she couldn't beat it, she ran away. The black-clothed guard immediately chased after her, and she also withdrew her fist and chased out, her fiery red skirt fluttering lightly, like a rose standing proudly in the wind.

"Adults don't have to chase after them. King Jin looked at it all in his eyes, smiled slightly, and walked out from behind the screen, "This kind of little assassin, this king is used to it." ”

After he finished speaking, he sent Tao Xun and the others away, and said to the Tai Tai Xun: "I just saw that the Lord of the Tai Tai is good, and before the king's guards come back, there will be Lord Lao." ”

Kaoru and the catchers motioned for them to wait outside, and when they turned their heads, King Jin was already sitting at the table, taking out two wine glasses and pouring wine, as if he was not afraid of assassins at all. She hadn't had much contact with the people in the capital, and she didn't look unusual when the eldest princess came last time, so she wasn't sure if the assassins were really "accustomed" to these royal clansmen, but she felt that the person in front of her was a little strange.

She sat down slowly, "Does Your Highness know where the Assassins are coming from?"

"I don't know. King Jin spread his hands leisurely and said, "It's not surprising that once you stand in line in the court, there will be these things." ”

He quietly raised his eyes to look at Kaoru Yutai, and savored her skills in his mind. This girl was amazed at the first sight, and her keen observation skills were no less than that of any guard, and such a person was too rare.

And it's ...... The people around Ye Chi.

Kaoru Tandai drank the wine he had handed him, but the door suddenly opened.
