Chapter 32: Speculation
Listening to Chen Zixiu's explanation, Murong Zhen and Qin Feng were obviously stunned for a moment, and some couldn't believe it.
"About our family history...... Didn't we find out before we entered the palace? Murong Zhen said puzzled. If they don't investigate their ancestors for eight generations, the emperor can't eat and sleep steadily. The emperor may not care about their family background or something, but a few fathers-in-law and the commander of the guard and the commander of the forbidden army will definitely always remember and knock at any time.
"Even if, even if the investigation has been clarified a long time ago, but, the emperor ...... The man has nothing to do, write it all down and keep it in his hand, and look through it at any time, what is he doing? Chen Zixiu struggled to herself. If it weren't for the conspiracy, he would have paid attention to what they were doing with these humble little people who were eating under the tiger's mouth every day! It's just a matter of caring about them, but they can barely warm the bed and pretend to be a servant to make the king happy, but their family is far away outside the palace, how can He De attract the attention of the emperor?
"Moreover, a few days ago, Lin Xiaoxu, who was in the back of the small courtyard, went to sleep once, and disappeared on the third day after coming back, saying that he had left...... What do you say about this? ”
Lin Xiaoxu's disappearance did not attract too many people's attention, because there have been cases in the past where the waiter was quietly carried away and dealt with a few days after returning from bed, and there were even palace maids who disappeared inexplicably, as for the whereabouts of these people, everyone did not dare to ask deeply, but their mouths were locked, and they did not reveal a trace of wind, for fear that the next one to disappear would be themselves. However, there are still rumors that have angered the one and been dealt with.
Of course, the king will not do it himself, but with a look and a movement, someone will take care of it for him. That unlucky Lin Xiaoxu couldn't say that he was cleaned up, and most of his fate was death.
Chen Zixiu couldn't help but shudder.
"He's trying to hold everything in his hands......"
Qin Feng, who had never expressed any opinions, rarely spoke, his face was condensed like frost, and his eyes were as dark as ink.
"The whole world is his, he has been in that position for several years, the generals who hold the military power and the Dong family and the Li family are all working for him wholeheartedly, what else can he not rest assured of." Murong Zhen said irritably. The last time he went home from the palace on vacation, his father vaguely mentioned a few words, saying that he had wronged him, and asked him to take care of himself no matter what, not to disobey that one, and to stay at home in the future, the emperor was happy, and he couldn't say that he would give grace to let him go home to make meritorious contributions, marry a wife and have children, and life will always get better slowly......
With such a body that has been favored by the king, what qualifications does he have to stand side by side with other young talents in the court and laugh and guide the country? On the way back to the palace, he met a classmate and friend from the past, and the disdainful eyes and mocking smile were enough for him to be aggrieved!
Murong Zhen closed his eyes angrily, opened them again, and suppressed the anger in his eyes.
Qin Feng glanced at him and said lightly: "The treasury is empty. "It's hard to say who the world is now, all parties are obedient on the surface, but secretly they are ready to move, how can that one really rest assured.
Chen Zixiu blinked, "The empty treasury is also heaven (home)...... It's too extravagant. "It's ridiculous that I can't even get the food money for disaster relief!" It can't be said that the hands and feet of the household department are not clean. "A few days ago, the group of old-fashioned people in the household department were brought into the palace and taught a lesson, and the court knew about it. But......
"Why are they okay?" He cried out in surprise. Didn't the tyrant kill a few people in his wrath?
"Of course they're fine, it's someone else who is in trouble." Murong Zhen said coldly, "I heard that recently, Lord Zhang led the officials of the household department to go to each house one by one to collect debts. ”
Chen Zixiu didn't go home this vacation because he cared about Lin Aike, some things didn't know in detail, and when he heard the gossip, he immediately came to his senses.
"What's wrong?"
"You also know the disadvantages of the family, and if the family's money can't be turned, you can borrow money from the household. Now is the time to collect the debt. Murong Zhen replied listlessly. The emperor was furious, and it was impossible for those people not to pay back the money. Don't you want to die?
The strange thing is that the emperor was happy when he had money to spend, and the accounts in the treasury were right, and he never asked about the money, how to go out hunting and come back, as if the whole person felt wrong......
"You said just now that the emperor ...... when you fell. I pulled you, but I didn't pull it? Murong Zhen recalled what Chen Zixiu had said, and asked again uncertainly.
"yes. If I hadn't been afraid of falling him, I wouldn't have fallen so hard. "My waist and hips still hurt! Chen Zixiu wrinkled his face and rubbed his waist.
Murong Zhen opened his mouth, but he couldn't make a sound. Qin Feng obviously thought of something as well, his eyes widened suddenly, and he glanced at Murong Zhen in disbelief!
Feeling the strangeness of his friend, Chen Zixiu was silent for a while, and suddenly came to his senses!
"He, he, he...... Isn't it him? Chen Zixiu secretly exclaimed!
Although they have not been fortunate enough to see how high and powerful the emperor's kung fu is, the guards have privately spread that the emperor can kill a mad cow with one punch, kick a hundred and ten pounds of mastiffs to the palace wall several feet high, and beat down several teams of first-class guards at the same time with one enemy and one hundred, Li Ming, the commander of the most martial arts forbidden army in the palace, was defeated in only thirty moves under him, and the brave and fierce Meng Huai'an also admitted that he could only take more than ten or twenty moves from the emperor......
However, it is such a martial arts wizard and a ruthless and moody king in everyone's eyes, who can't even hold him, a person who only has three-legged cat kung fu? He doesn't have any internal strength at all!
Chen Zixiu felt that something must have gone wrong!
Murong Zhen opened his mouth and was speechless.
"Could it be that from Meng...... Since that night, there have been substitutions? "Qin Feng is the fastest to react, his family is in business, he has never seen anything in the business field, and his family still deals with the people of the rivers and lakes, otherwise how can those goods continue to travel from south to north to ensure that the minimum loss is exchanged for the greatest profit?
"You say, could it be that he was seriously injured that day and is still recuperating in the dark, so he found a similar replacement?" Qin Feng paced two steps in the room, turned to stare at the two friends, his eyes shining, and said in a deep voice: "The opportunity has come!" ”
Chen Zixiu and Murong Zhen also came back to their senses, and the two of them couldn't hide the joy on their faces, and secretly clenched their fists!
Gao Shenghan didn't know that he was being remembered again. Now, she is dealing with Uncle Wang, who is kneeling in front of her and crying poorly, Wang Ye An.
It's the one who borrowed money to build a dragon boat during the Dragon Boat Festival and didn't pay it back.
