Chapter 1449: Despicable Xiao Zheng!
The emperor's death was too unexpected. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The emperor's death an hour earlier shocked Xiao Zheng even more.
Before he died, there was chaos in the palace. even woke Xiao Zheng up twice. But why, when the emperor passed away an hour ago, the palace was unusually calm and fell into a strange calm?
It was so calm that Xiao Zheng didn't hear any sound!
It's so unusual!
Moreover, what Prince Ling Lainei just said about coordinating the relationship between all parties, including her. And what does that mean?
Is it Prince Tianxiong who wants to talk one by one?
What to talk about?
Alarmist? Coercion and inducement?
Xiao Zheng didn't expect that overnight, there would be drastic changes in the palace. It was unexpected.
Of course, fundamentally speaking, these things have little to do with the current Xiao Zheng. But since he chose to support Prince Ling Lainei, he would try his best to bring himself in. Even if it's just a suggestion, it's not in vain.
"What are you going to do?" Xiao Zheng asked with a solemn expression.
"If the prince wants to coordinate the relationship and stabilize the overall situation, I will naturally listen to him." Prince Ling Lainei said slowly. He closed the news and tried not to let the outside world know about it, just to control the palace in the shortest possible time. Sort out the context. Preventing the death of the emperor from causing a sea change that is beyond his control. ”
Xiao Zheng nodded in understanding. Immediately, he asked curiously, "Apart from you, is there anyone else fighting with him?" ”
"Uncle Huang is disqualified. But I won't give up," said Prince Linglaine.
Xiao Zheng's eyes lit up: "Prince Miyamoto? ”
"Hmm." Prince Ling Lainei said.
"So, he's going to take some of the pressure off of you?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"He'll take the initiative to help me." Prince Ling Lainei said with a smile. "You can only help me."
Xiao Zheng nodded and took a sip of soy milk: "There are enemies within ten steps." Your Royal Highness, I wish you success. ”
Prince Ling Lainei smiled: "Chinese culture is really broad and profound. This sentence won my heart. ”
Watching Prince Ling Lainei leave the mansion. A maid Xiao Zheng was very familiar with walked from outside the door. Cleaning and tidying up the house. After making sure that Xiao Zheng had finished eating, he immediately cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks. Do things carefully, and there is not much movement.
The first time he came to Prince Ling Lainei's mansion, Xiao Zheng had seen her. Belongs to the confidant servant of Prince Ling Lainei. But his temperament is soft, he has no temper, and he has no city. It's a bit of an intimate little padded jacket.
"Don't be busy." Xiao Zheng took the fragrant tea handed to him by Ying Xiang and waved his hand. "Sit down and talk to me."
When Ying Xiang heard this, she was sincerely frightened and said: "I am a subordinate, how can I sit with you..."
Xiao Zheng couldn't cry or laugh, and immediately said with a straight face: "Since you are a subordinate, do you dare not listen to my orders?" ”
When Ying Xiang heard this, she had to sit next to Xiao Zheng quite uneasily. But he only dared to sit with half of his ass, and his little eyes flashed with panic.
She is a rare maid in the mansion of Prince Ling Lainei. It can be regarded as half a lineage. Before, because Prince Ling Lainei was not favored, he didn't pay much attention. Naturally, the resources of the palace could not be tilted towards her. Now that the status has gone up and the influence is great, it stands to reason that the maids and servants in the mansion should increase day by day. But Prince Ling Lainei is used to being quiet, and there are many people with mixed eyes, so it is easy to mix with spies. Therefore, they did not continue to recruit. It's still the three or two maids who serve her daily life. Yingxiang is an old seniority, and is called a sister by the other two. But she has been conscientious and conscientious, and An An is doing her own work. Never pretend to be a tiger.
The status of the palace has improved, but the mentality has not changed. As a result, in the face of distinguished guests like Xiao Zheng, her posture was extremely low.
Seeing Yingxiang's restrained expression, Xiao Zheng smiled and said in a very gentle tone: "You work beside the prince all year round. You should know something, right? ”
"Sir, I'm just a maid. Your Highness won't tell me anything—" Yingxiang explained, rather uneasy.
"Don't be nervous. I'm not going to ask you some gibberish questions either. Smiling, Xiao Zheng took a sip of tea. Isn't there a lot of pressure on the prince these days? ”
"Yes—yes."
That's what it can say. Ying Xiang also noticed that His Royal Highness the Prince had lost his appetite recently, and his mental state was also a little abnormal. Probably due to too much stress.
"And has she received any guests at the mansion lately?" Xiao Zheng asked with a smile.
It's not that he is gossiping, but he wants to knock on the side and ask for some information. Of course, he also knew that Ying Xiang couldn't know the content of Prince Ling Lainei's conversation with the guests. But as long as he knows who has come, Xiao Zheng can also have a little bottom.
"There were quite a few people coming. I can't remember it all for a while-" Ying Xiang thought for a moment, and then told Xiao Zheng one by one.
In the past half month, Ling Lai's mansion has been visited, including his father, Prince Miyamoto, and even a small number of government officials. Presumably, they are also discussing how to deal with it. It's good to be prepared. Although he knew that Prince Ling Lainei was not a person who was waiting to be killed, his eyes were black and completely unaware, which made Xiao Zheng quite irritable.
After chatting for a while, Ying Xiangcheng asked in fear, "Sir—I still have work to do." ”
The implication is, I have to go.
"There's no hurry." Xiao Zheng shook his head and quipped. "I see that you are not very old, and you are also beautiful. How can you be willing to work here? Is there anything hard to say? ”
To understand a person, you can start by their identity and background, or by the people around them. Xiao Zheng seems to know Prince Ling Lainei very well, but how can he grasp her mind?
This woman, who seems to be gentle and polite to herself, is actually extremely dangerous.
"I'm an orphan..."Ying Xiangqiao's face was slightly dark, and her eyes were watery. From an early age, he was sent to the palace for training. The only thing they can do is to serve people. ”
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he was also quite sympathetic: "I, like you, am also an orphan. ”
"Huh?" Ying Xiang raised her eyes slightly, incredulously. "You're an orphan too?"
"Don't I look like it?" Xiao Zheng quipped. "There's nothing wrong with being orphaned. Uninhibited, unfettered, and unmanaged. Is that right? ”
"That's what I said-" Knowing that Xiao is an orphan, Yingxiang is a little close. He also spoke a lot. "But without relatives, there will always be times of loneliness. It's fine during the day. At night, it's a little sad. ”
It turned out to be a sentimental little beauty. Xiao Zheng smiled, took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to the other party: "In the future, if you are bored and don't delay your work, call me." I'll chat with you and entertain you for loneliness. ”
Seeing this, Yingxiang couldn't help but have some tears in her eyes. I don't know what to say for a while.
Xiao Zheng saw the other party like this, but in his heart, he secretly scolded himself for being despicable. But at this point, he had to do something. Whether it's for his own safety, or to some extent, he can help Prince Ling Laine.
"Yingxiang, since you have been living in the palace. You must know something that others don't know, right? Xiao Zheng changed his words and asked intriguingly. For example, there is a forbidden place in the palace. Or is there something unknown that ordinary people would not dare to mention? ”
