Chapter 68: It's done

Fortunately, God had mercy on him and let him meet Xue Ge Lao. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Xue Ge is an upright person, seeing that he has real talent and learning, he immediately recommended him to the Shengshang, and after some investigation by the Shengshang, he was also a little surprised that such a person had sat in the position of the Wupin official for so long, and promoted him to be Jing Zhaoyin who was in charge of Gyeonggi.

He was proud, and secretly guessed whether Xue Ge Lao also wanted to cultivate his own power like Song Ge Lao.

As far as he knew, over the years, the prince has frequently handed olive branches to the Xue family, but the Xue family has never given a clear statement.

Such a hairpin house, but the general trend is ambiguous, the prince is naturally dissatisfied, but it also gives some neutral parties in the DPRK and China, and even officials who are not optimistic about the prince's position have a chance of life. He is one of those people.

With the old incident in the early years, maintaining neutrality is already a very broad mind, if it weren't for the fact that there was no powerful prince in the court who dared to declare war with the prince's faction, he would have sided with another team a long time ago.

Just thinking about it like this, I can't help but feel weird. Since there is no prince who can compete with the crown prince, why should the Xue family, which has not fallen after several dynasties, not give face to the future prince? This is really not a far-sighted method.

After all, the Xue family is different from him, a small family who fights alone, that is, whoever provokes the prince's faction among the children of the family will most likely not be able to do it and tolerate each other. And he, once he waits for the crown prince to ascend to the throne, I am afraid that he will be suppressed by the enemies of the year and will never have a bright future. Therefore, for him, he has to work against the prince, but for the Xue family, it is not necessary.

But at this moment, the long road that appeared in front of him couldn't help but make him think differently.

Today, Xue Shangshu was facing Chen He in the court, and he could see it clearly. As soon as Xue Shangshu left Beijing, the people of the Chen family hurriedly transported the silver, most of which was stolen silver, but it was interesting to let the people of the Three Princes' Mansion expose it.

The third prince has been cautious about Queen Song and the crown prince over the years, like a shadow, and he doesn't know whether he is cowardly or pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, but tonight's incident is ......

He doesn't believe in coincidental "passing by", and even the third prince has already caught up with the Xue family or Xue Shangshu......

"Lord Hui, the later chariots and horses were all filled with silver. After the investigation, the government servant paused again and said, "Moreover, it is all official silver." ”

Zeng Jia was not surprised when he heard this, from the time he heard that he saw the Chen family crest, he guessed that most of these carriages were stolen silver.

Chen He's family is not clean, he has long known that it is only because this time the matter is so big that he has such a stupid way to remedy it.

It's just that at this moment, he carefully looked at the long road standing aside, and saw that he was not surprised at all, and he was even more sure in his heart.

Immediately ordered: "...... Temporarily detain this group until tomorrow morning, and then the official will personally present his case to the Holy One. ”

Changlu was a little surprised to see him so decisive. He didn't know very much about the festival between Zeng Jia and the prince's faction, but after the matter was done, he sent someone to keep an eye on Jingzhao Mansion all night, and he was not afraid that he would make any demon moths. So he politely said goodbye to Zeng Jia, and didn't say anything else.

Chen Congze's face turned pale and he looked at Zeng Jia in disbelief. After a moment, his eyes darkened. From the very beginning, it was he who thought about it, this Lord Jing Zhaoyin was not a character who couldn't stand up.

Tonight, their Chen family really jumped into someone else's trap.

The long road went smoothly, and he returned to the palace briskly.

He walked towards Li Yun's study, but was stopped by a crisp voice.

"Lord Changlu, why did you come back so late?"

When he looked back at the long road, it turned out to be the small ring beside Concubine Gao.

So he smiled briskly, glanced at her, and said lightly: "I am helping His Highness outside, and I often come back at this point, but you didn't see it." It's you, at night, don't be on duty at the side concubine Niangniang, what are you running in the outer courtyard with a cup?"

Xiaohuan didn't care, and said with a smile: "It was my mother's mother who heard that His Royal Highness had been sleeping lightly recently, so she specially boiled a bowl of soothing soup and ordered the slave maid to send it over." ”

Changlu nodded and said, "Your Highness's study has never allowed outsiders to enter, you give me the soup, and I will help you deliver it." ”

Xiaohuan thanked him for the long way, handed him the food plate, and withdrew with a satisfied smile.

Everyone in the house knows that the guard Changlu, who grew up with His Highness, is His Highness's first confidant, who is steady and wise, and His Highness's temper is very similar.

Originally, when the princess was favored, Changlu treated her almost as respectfully as His Royal Highness, because they didn't dare to compare their edges, and only guarded their days peacefully. However, the man was unlucky after all, and went early.

Now in the palace, the only one who can get a few words of advice from Lord Changlu is their side concubine. It is also a matter of course, after all, their mother still has a small county lord by her side, this is the first in the house, if she is blessed to give birth to a grandson in the future, with a good background, you can also think about the position of the concubine.

So these days, Niangniang's mind has also begun to come alive.

Xiaohuan pursed her lips and smiled, and walked quickly towards the courtyard of the high side concubine.

When Changlu walked into the courtyard with a food plate, Li Yun was sitting on a stone bench under the tree, wiping a sword.

He respectfully put the food plate on the round stone table and said, "Your Highness, this is a soothing soup made by the side concubine Niangniang herself, and she just sent someone to send it." ”

Hearing this, Li Yun just glanced at the soup lightly and then withdrew his gaze, noncommittal to the "hand-made", and said, "Is it going well tonight?"

So Changlu stopped looking at the soup. There are only three princes left and right about him, and it is not his turn to worry about any wives and concubines competing for favor.

"Back to Your Highness, everything is going well. He replied with a smile: "Everything is as His Highness said, the little one sent more than ten guards to disguise themselves as foreign bandits, robbed the two carriages of the Chen family at the gate of Jingzhao Mansion, and after alarming the government officials, he cut off the cover of one of them, revealing the silver of a carriage.

Then taking advantage of the panic, he secretly kidnapped a house slave of the Chen family, asked him to go back and lie that everything was okay, and let the remaining ten carriages leave the house.

This Chen Conggang had just bluffed Jing Zhaoyin, and then the carriages behind him came. The little one took the opportunity to say that those were the Chen family, but he didn't expect that Jing Zhaoyin to be so cooperative, and immediately asked them to be imprisoned, and the silver was temporarily placed in the treasury of the mansion. The little one was afraid of fraud, so he left about twenty people to watch over there. ”

Li Yun listened carefully and said, "Don't worry, Zeng Jiaqi will never help Chen He deceive his father." Changlu didn't know the entanglement, but he heard Xue Ge Lao mention it by chance. has been suppressed by the prince's faction so far, where will he help them and make himself fishy?

The long road is unknown, so he didn't ask much, but said: "Then tomorrow above the court, what does His Highness plan to do?"

Li Yun glanced at the glowing sword and said with a smile: "The sword is out of its sheath, and it should be pointed straight into the sky." He picked up the soup, drank it all in one gulp, and then went into the inner room next to the study.

Long Lu thought thoughtfully, and went down with a food plate.
