Ren Xiaoyao's eyes widened, and he shouted with an aggrieved face: "Your Majesty! Wechen is wronged! In fact, Weichen was sneered at by her ************ the emperor: "Do you think I will believe it?" ”

Ren Xiaoyao opened his mouth and stammered, but he couldn't say half a sentence. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Spread my will, Yuezhou raised the case of the murder of Ye Wenjiang, and instructed the Inspectorate to investigate it freely, and be sure to catch the real culprit as soon as possible and give an explanation to the people of the world! Hum! Retreat! ”

The emperor angrily announced the dispersal of the dynasty, and then flicked his sleeves, turned around and entered the harem, not bothering to look at Ren Xiaoyao.

After Baiguanshan shouted long live, they all turned around and walked towards the door of the hall, passing by Ren Xiaoyao's side, looking at him with different eyes, it was very complicated.

Ren Yao knelt on the ground, looking at the empty emperor's dragon chair in front of him, motionless, his mind was a mess.

The emperor asked him to investigate the murder of Ye Wenjiang, which ...... Isn't this forcing him to turn his face with the British king? What does the emperor think?

If you really don't want to be an enemy of the King of England, you can just find a substitute for the dead ghost to come out and convict the murderer, there are so many death row prisoners in the prison, it is easy to find a substitute for the dead ghost, which not only smoothly resolves the contradiction invisibly, but also sells personal favors to King Shou and King Ying, and both are happy.

Do this...... Probably can, right? Does the emperor mean the same thing? But is the prince so foolish? If the king didn't turn his face with himself and let the prince's wishful thinking come to naught, would the prince be willing to give up?

"Lord Ren, Lord Ren ......" The old voice sounded in Ren Xiaoyao's ears.

Ren Xiaoyao was startled, came back to his senses, and found that the entire Jinluan Hall was empty, and only Wei Chengde, the secretary of the military department, kindly woke him up.

"Ah...... Lord Wei, I haven't seen you for many days, the boss is good-looking, hehe, I guess I've been living a tight life lately, right? Ren Xiaoyao smiled.

Wei Chengde stroked his beard, looked at Ren Xiaoyao with a worried face, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Ren, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today is not good, when you deal with Ye Wenjiang's case, you have to be more careful, don't fall into the trap of others." ”

Ren Xiaoyao smiled bitterly: "The emperor insists on sending me on this errand, do I dare to resist the decree?" But I really don't understand what the emperor thinks, the boss has been through ups and downs for a long time, can you give some guidance to the lower officials? ”

Since Wei Chengde and Ren Xiaoyao met, he has admired Ren Xiaoyao, a young courtier, although Ren Xiaoyao's personality is sleek and frivolous, but he has never been disappointed in major matters. From offering advice to retreat from the Turks, to negotiating with the Turks, to the rebellion of Pan. Ren Xiaoyao stepped forward to escort him, which is enough to show that Ren Xiaoyao is a loyal courtier. So Wei Chengde's impression of him has always been good, and even getting better and better.

Wei Chengde saw that Ren Yao was distressed, and couldn't help but smile and stroke his beard. smiled: "How dare the old man speculate on the holy will? It's just that Lord Ren is in the game and doesn't know it. If you can jump out of the game and look at the whole game, you will definitely benefit from it......"

Ren Xiaoyao said helplessly: "Lord Wei, just say it directly." Don't go around in circles, I'll only play backgammon......"

Wei Chengde lowered his voice and said: "The emperor's meaning is actually not difficult to guess, based on the overall consideration, the emperor really doesn't want you to have trouble with the two princes of Shouwang Yingwang." The prince and the important ministers poured into each other, and it was useless for the country and the court, which was the way to destroy the country and bring disaster. But...... The emperor also doesn't want you to be too good friends with the two princes, in case you secretly collude and do something that the emperor doesn't want to see, which is also the way to destroy the country and cause trouble. ”

Ren Xiaoyao was dumbfounded: "In other words, the emperor wants my relationship with those two princes to be unbeatable and unharmonious?" ”

Wei Chengde nodded and smiled: "Yes." The so-called imperial mind. To put it bluntly, there are actually only two words, 'checks and balances'. Hold one head, press another head, maintain the delicate balance in the court, and the court can be peaceful. The court is at peace, and the world is at peace. Now that the crown prince is in charge of the country, it is the time when the imperial power is changing, no matter what the emperor plans for the prince. Whether it is a waste or a stand, we are courtiers. You can't have branches in the middle, otherwise, even if you are favored again, when it is related to the inheritance of the country, the emperor will mercilessly remove you! The reason why the emperor is called a lonely man is because the most important thing in his heart is only the country. ”

Ren Xiaoyao felt a chill for no reason, Wei Chengde was right, the power of heaven is unpredictable, the emperor is already in his last years, and he is about to hand over the imperial power in his hands, at this critical and sensitive time, anyone who sets off a little bit of a small storm is what the emperor does not want to see. For example, the Yuezhou Juzi named Ye Wenjiang was killed, and it was just an ordinary homicide case, but the prince got involved, and tried to use this matter as a weapon to bring down the fat man and the two princes, this matter is not ordinary, I believe that the emperor is also very clear about the prince's intentions, so he pushed the boat down the river and ordered himself to deal with this matter.

The emperor has created a problem for himself.

Wei Chengde's words were a little vague, some of the words could not be said clearly, and the old man was very interesting enough to be able to talk about it to this extent.

Ren Xiaoyao realized, arched his hand at Wei Chengde and smiled: "Thank you Lord Wei for your advice, they all say that ginger is old and spicy, this is really true......"

Wei Chengde stroked his carefully trimmed beard and said with a smile: "Lord Ren is polite, the old man can only say so much to you, if you want to stand in the court and not fall, you still have to rely on yourself to understand many things." ”

Out of the palace gate, Ren Xiaoyao went straight back to the house.

Just about to sit down and think about what to do with Ye Wenjiang's case, the next person sent a post, saying that King Ying invited him to the Yueyue Building for a gathering.

"This king is very good at being a man." Ren Xiaoyao flipped through the beautifully made post and looked at it for a while, and said angrily.

Everyone in the capital knows that Invite Yue Lou is the property of the Ren family, and the British king chose to invite Ren Xiaoyao to a banquet in Invite Yue Lou, which first released the greatest sincerity and goodwill to Ren Xiaoyao.

Ren Xiaoyao looked at the post and sighed, this meal is really not easy to eat.

The emperor hopes that he and the king of England will maintain a relationship that is not salty or light, and the prince hopes that they will pinch each other, and it is best to end up together, the fat man is the weakest, and he is still counting on himself to support him, and the attitude of the king today seems to be to take the initiative to marry him.

Each has different attitudes, different eyes, different thoughts, and where to go, which is really nerve-wracking.

changed into civilian clothes and went out to the meeting.

No matter what the king wants to say to himself, at least this meal is his treat, he was beaten by Ren Xiaoyao in the morning, and he had to invite Ren Xiaoyao to eat at night, Ren Xiaoyao felt that he was quite a long face for the crosser.

Invite Yuelou is actually not far from Ren's mansion, and it is just a street away. Ren Xiaoyao didn't take a car or a sedan chair, he played with a gold ivory folding fan in his hand, and came to the Invitation Moon Tower as easily as a leisurely stroll.

At this time, it is already the time of the palm lamp, it is very strange, today the Yueyue Building is deserted, and there is no guest.

There was a middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper standing outside the door, and when he saw Ren Xiaoyao coming, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down and said, "The villain has seen Lord Ren." His Royal Highness has been waiting for your Excellency for a long time, please. ”

Ren Xiaoyao glanced at the empty building and said strangely: "What's wrong today?" My Ren family is going bankrupt? Why don't you have a single guest? ”

The middle-aged man said with a smile: "The prince likes to be quiet, and he specially chartered the entire Invitation Moon Building today." To show the sincerity of the banquet. ”

Ren Xiaoyao's eyes widened in surprise: "Packaged?" ”

Immediately, Ren Xiaoyao pursed his lips. Walking in with both hands, he muttered as he walked: "Bao Qinglou, Bao Huafang, what are you not good at." Do you have to buy a restaurant? It's a waste, how good it would be to discount me......"

The King of England sat in a private room on the fifth floor of the Invitation Moon Building, admiring a picture of a lady hanging on the wall with great interest, and when he saw Ren Xiaoyao coming in, he immediately laughed and said, "Lord Ren appreciates his face. This king confessed. ”

Ren Xiaoyao's eyes swept quickly, and found that there were only two people in the private room, he and the king, this was a sensitive period, in order to hide people's eyes, the two of them did not even bring a guard.

Ren Xiaoyao saw that the king's face was still swollen, and he couldn't recognize what it was, so he grinned, his face twitched in pain, but he still forced himself to laugh. It seems that only laughter can show his sincerity.

However, the King of England was smiling on his face, and there was a hint of imperceptible resentment in his eyes when he looked at Ren Xiaoyao. Ren Xiaoyao knew that the king of England must have known by now that the fat beating in the morning was caused by him, and the capital said that it was not a big deal. You can't hide it. It's just that for some purpose, it's just that the king of England is temporarily inconvenient to turn his face with Ren Yao.

Seeing the disgusting appearance of the King of England, Ren Xiaoyao couldn't help but smile in his heart, and arched his hand: "His Royal Highness the King is so polite. How dare the lower officials not come? ”

The two exchanged a few polite words and took their seats.

Not much. The dishes were served, and the two chatted a lot, and after three rounds of drinking, the king of England got to the point.

"This king invites Lord Ren today, and if he asks about something, I hope that Lord Ren will not hesitate to give advice."

"Although the prince speaks, the lower officials will never agree."

"Huh?"

"Oh...... I'm sorry, the lower official said it was smooth. Although the prince said that as long as he did not borrow money, everything was negotiable. Ren Xiaoyao smiled and poured wine for the king of England.

When the king heard this, a little contempt flashed in his eyes, such a philistine, I don't know what luck he had, he was actually in a high position, God is really unfair.

Then the king said it bluntly. Early this morning, my father ordered my lord to investigate the murder of Ye Wenjiang, but I don't know what my lord meant......"

The King said this in a tentative tone, his eyes kept on Ren Yao's face, as if he didn't want to miss any expression on his face.

Ren Xiaoyao still looked smiling, took a sip of wine, and said in a slow and orderly tone: "As a courtier, of course, you must be loyal to your duties and share worries for the emperor, and the emperor's will, the courtiers must be meticulous in doing it, this is called a loyal minister, right?" ”

"This ...... Of course, of course, hehe. Ying Wang Qiang laughed a few times.

Ren Xiaoyao suddenly said coldly: "The prince took the initiative to mention Ye Wenjiang, could it be that his death is really related to the prince?" ”

The king was taken aback and stammered, "Hu ...... Nonsense! This king is innocent and knows nothing about this case, but it is...... But someone maliciously framed this king, and let him ...... You can't get me wrong. ”

Ren Xiaoyao said happily: "It really has nothing to do with the prince?" That's great! Xia Guan can finally let go of the investigation of the case, and he doesn't have to have any scruples......"

The king's face was a little ugly, and he smiled dryly: "This ...... Ah, haha, Lord Ren, drink, drink......"

The two had a drink, and the king changed the topic in a timely manner: "I don't know what your lordship thinks of the current situation in Beijing?" ”

Ren Xiaoyao had a satisfied expression, learned the posture of a great man, exaggerated waved his hand in mid-air, and said loudly: "The situation is very good!" ”

"Huh?" The King was dumbfounded, "This ...... What does this mean, Lord Ren? ”

Ren Xiaoyao counted one by one: "The emperor is sage, the prince is also effective, the court has been peaceful and clear since Pan was punished, the courtiers respect and love each other, quite the style of ancient sages, the princes abide by their duties, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, so they say...... The situation is very good! ”

The British king's face became more and more ugly, he invited Ren Xiaoyao to the banquet with the respect of the prince and the prince, but he didn't expect that Ren Xiaoyao's attitude was perfunctory from beginning to end, as smooth and cunning as a loach, he felt that the decision to meet Ren Xiaoyao today was a mistake at all.

Ren Xiaoyao glanced at the King of England with a smile and said, "Doesn't the prince have a unique view of the situation in Beijing?" ”

“…… Lord Ren, there are only you and I in this private room today, and I can speak out. If it is in your ears, no third person will know. Let the king tell you clearly. ”

The king of England paused, and said in a deep voice: "This king knows that the person you support is the blessed king, and this king supports it." is the second son of the emperor. Shou Wang. You and I are our own masters, but we have a common enemy, and that is...... Prince. ”

"Only when the crown prince falls, King Fu and King Shou have a chance to compete for the position of the prince. So. For now, we should not be enemies, but allies, Lord Ren, the words of this king. I don't know if you think so? ”

Ren Xiaoyao smiled: "What the prince means, let's join hands to bring down the prince, and then we will be enemies of each other to see who can compete for the position of the prince?" ”

The King of England also smiled, and his smile was a little gloomy: "Lord Ren is really smart, in fact, even if the crown prince falls, we don't have to be enemies......"

"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”

"The trend of the world will be combined for a long time. If King Fu is willing to join forces, King Shou promises, after the matter is completed, he will wait for his father to die. He is willing to rule the river with King Fu, with the Yangtze River as the boundary, King Fu rules the north, and King Shou rules the south. From now on, it will be passed down from generation to generation, and it will never be offended. ”

Ren Xiaoyao was surprised when he heard this: "What King Shou means." Could it be ...... Divide the Chinese Dynasty in two? He accounts for half, and King Fu accounts for half? ”

The King of England nodded with a smile and said: "Yes, I would rather be the head of the chicken than the queen of the ox, rather than gambling all my life for the position of the Ninety-Five, it is better to retreat and be the king of the half country." This king believes that His Royal Highness King Fu will not object. ”

Tsk, what do you call a loser? Look at the realm of others! What is a loser's property? If you have the ability to defeat the whole country, that's what you call it powerful.

Ren Xiaoyao shook his head secretly, this ...... It's too fake, right? If the prince falls, it's strange if you don't immediately stab me and the fat man's knife! You can tell all this kind of deceptive nonsense, do you think I'm a fool?

"Lord Ren, I have formed an alliance with you and King Fu, this king and King Shou have shown great sincerity, this king knows, King Fu is a person who has no ideas, and many things are Lord Ren, you are making ideas, I don't know what the adults want about this king's proposal?"

Ren Xiaoyao sneered in his heart, extremely sincere? Just that bullshit "row the river and rule"? Are you sharing a birthday cake? It doesn't matter if you insult my personality, it's too wrong to insult my intelligence.

After being silent for a long time, Ren Xiaoyao was about to speak, when the door of the private room opened, and Xiao Er brought food in.

The King of England was eagerly waiting for Ren Xiaoyao's reply, and when he saw Xiao Er coming in, he frowned very dissatisfied, and said in a deep voice: "Who asked you to come in without my orders?" ”

Who knew that Xiao Er lowered his head and didn't say a word, just holding the plate and approaching the two of them unhappily.

Ren Xiaoyao couldn't help but feel strange, Invite Yuelou is his family's property, the shopkeeper inside, the account room and the junior second in the running hall have all been screened and trained, this guy walked in without saying a word with his head down, and didn't answer his questions, so rude, could it be that he is new?

When the king saw that Xiao Er dared not answer, he couldn't help but feel a little angry on his face, and he was about to drink, but who knew that the situation in the elegant room had changed abruptly.

Xiao Er suddenly threw the wooden tray in his hand at Ren Xiaoyao, and the steaming vegetable juice and vegetable leaves on the tray suddenly stained Ren Xiaoyao's face.

Ren Xiaoyao was so hot that he bounced up from the chair, wow wow screamed and hurriedly wiped his face with his sleeves, although his eyes were covered by vegetable soup, but Ren Xiaoyao also knew that the situation was not good, and while wiping his face, his body shrank under the table smartly.

After the little two who came in threw the tray out, he pulled out a cold dagger out of nowhere, and shouted at the king: "Traitor! Come on! ”

The voice is delicate, like the first cry of a yellow warbler, this person is actually a woman.

As she spoke, the woman took the dagger in her hand and stabbed at the king.

The king was not slow to react, and when he saw someone assassinating, he was busy learning from Ren Yao, and shrank under the table.

Ren Xiaoyao just wiped his face, and when he saw that King Ying also shrank in, he couldn't help but hurriedly say, "Why are you coming in?" Get out! ”

The King of England looked horrified and said, "How could anyone commit an assassination?" Is it here to kill you or to kill me? ”

"Of course I killed you, I have always been honest and duty-free, I don't recruit anyone and don't mess with anyone, how can anyone kill me?"

"Nonsense! This king has not offended anyone, can the assassin kill me? ”

As the two spoke, the female assassin also leaned down and got under the table, her pretty eyes full of anger, and she couldn't distinguish anyone, pinching the dagger and stabbing at the two of them.

Ren Xiaoyao and the King of England had a very tacit understanding of "wow" yelled, and then at the same time from under the table drilled out, the female assassin seemed to have expected them to run, as soon as the two of them got out of the table, the female assassin also came out, the three of them ran out of the table from the three Ren directions, as if someone put a stinky fart under the table, smoked the three out.

Ren Xiaoyao's heart was once again filled with grief and indignation at this moment, how many times? How many times have you been hunted down? What kind of luck did Lao Tzu go? Why have you been assassinated endlessly in this life?

The female assassin wielded a dagger and chased after the two in the cramped private room, and it was evident that she was not good at this, and the goal of the pursuit seemed to be very unclear, one moment chasing Ren Yao, the other chasing the British king.

Ren Xiaoyao shouted loudly as he ran: "There are assassins!" Catch the assassins! ”

What's worse is that the two met today, in order to hide people's eyes and ears, they didn't bring guards, and the king of England in order to show his magnanimity, and the entire Invitation Moon Building was contracted, that is to say, at present, in this five-story restaurant, in addition to the unknown shopkeeper and buddies, there are only him and the king.

Ren Xiaoyao took advantage of the chaos to open the door of the private room, and was about to run out, as long as he got out of this door, he would have the hope of escaping from the assassins.

But the female assassin chased after him reluctantly, and when she saw that Ren Xiaoyao wanted to open the door, she didn't say a word, and stabbed Ren Xiaoyao in the abdomen with a dagger.

Seeing the assassin's dagger stabbing at him, Ren Xiaoyao let out a shout of "wow", and then grabbed the king next to him without hesitation, and then raised his right foot, kicked the king of the king's ass fiercely, and kicked him towards the female assassin.

People don't do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed, didn't you just say that we are allies? Now it's up to you to block the sword for your allies.

The King of England obviously did not expect Ren Yao to be despicable to this extent, and was kicked out by Ren Yao without warning, and the King of England shouted: "Ah! You're shameless......"

Then he heard the sound of "snorting" and tearing his clothes, and the king of England touched his bleeding arm with a pale face, and said in a trembling voice: "This king ...... This king was stabbed ......"

Ren Xiaoyao's heart is full of disdain, it's all at this time, and he hasn't forgotten to put on a score, and he still this king and this king, I don't know whether to live or die!

When the female assassin saw that she had stabbed someone, her expression panicked, and then she bit her silver teeth, tightened the dagger in her hand, and stabbed Ren Xiaoyao again.

"Wait! Stop it! Ren Xiaoyao shouted. There are too many people dying every day in the world, but he can't die in a daze, this assassination is too strange today, Ren Xiaoyao must ask first.

The female assassin was drunk by Ren Xiaoyao, and suddenly stopped her figure, her pretty eyes glowed with cold light, and she stared at Ren Xiaoyao for a moment.

"You can't kill blindly when you kill, you first say, who are you going to kill today?" Ren Xiaoyao asked.

The female assassin hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted her teeth and said hatefully: "I am Ye Ling'er, the younger sister of Ye Wenjiang, the son of Yuezhou, and I vow to kill the King of England today to avenge my brother!" ”

Ren Xiaoyao and King Ying let out an "ah" at the same time when they heard this. The difference is that Ren Yaoyao's voice is relaxed, and the king is full of horror.

Ren Xiaoyao leaned his back against the door, sighed like a prostration, pointed at the King of England with a face full of fear, and smiled as kindly as a blessing from heaven: "Let me introduce you solemnly, this is His Royal Highness the King of England, don't kill the mistake, I'm a good person......"

As soon as the female assassin Ye Ling'er reported her identity, Ren Xiaoyao immediately understood what was going on.

Yuezhou's son Ye Wenjiang was brutally beaten to death, this matter has already caused a storm in the city, and now his sister has come to seek revenge from the king of England, which is really reasonable and fair.

The most important thing is that this matter has nothing to do with him today, he has been hunted down and killed many times, and today I finally met him playing a supporting role, which can't help but make Ren Xiaoyao, who is used to being the protagonist of being hunted down, feel happy, and at the same time have a little schadenfreude in his heart.

I'll just say, Lao Tzu's character is so noble, it is impossible for me to be hunted down and killed every time, and it should be someone else's turn. (To be continued.) )
