Chapter 137: Someone from the Palace
Since Zhao Yuan left Xu Hong's mansion, Xu Hong ordered to find the woman who belonged to the dragon.
In the past few days, there have been a lot of women who have been found to be dragons in Linzi City, but Zhao Yuan said that they have already met, which makes Xu Hong difficult.
He is basically at home on weekdays, except for the last court, how has he ever seen any dragon woman.
If you see him, how can you not be impressed, he only has two hobbies in his life, one is power and wealth, and the other is beauty.
He thought about it and focused on the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet.
That night, all the women with identities were there, and after such a check, there were really a few young women who belonged to the dragon.
A stack of portraits is placed on Xu Hong's table.
Xu Hong checked them one by one, but he was not impressed.
He turned his head to look at He Zhang on the side and asked, "Are all the portraits of all the dragons of the Miaoling women at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet here?"
He Zhang is the leader of his shadow guard, and he specializes in doing some shady things for him.
Under his gaze, He Zhang thought carefully, and suddenly his eyes lit up and looked at Xu Hong and said: "When the adult said this, the subordinates thought about it, and there was a dragon woman at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, and the adults also ordered their subordinates to secretly investigate her." ”
As soon as He Zhang said this, Xu Hong instantly remembered, he frowned and looked at He Zhang and said, "Are you talking about the Ji family's Ji Man with a bad name?"
At the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, she really amazed him.
So when he returned, he ordered someone to investigate her secretly.
He has always only cared about the major affairs of the DPRK and China, and rarely cared about the rumors on the streets, but he did not expect that although the beauty was beautiful, she had a evil name, which instantly extinguished his enthusiasm.
At that time, people believed in ghosts and gods, and he did not dare to risk his life.
He Zhang arched his hand and said: "Lord Hui is her, and her subordinates have checked that she happens to be a dragon." ”
Xu Hong didn't even think about it and said: "She is an ominous person who is evil, the person Zhao Yuan said will not be her, I order you to continue to investigate, even if the world is turned upside down, you will find out the person for me." ”
"Yes, sir. He Zhang arched his hand and said.
In the blink of an eye, it was already night.
After coming back from Ji Man, Ji Yu stayed in the room.
After lunch, she wrote a letter and asked Magu to hand it to Zhao Yuan quietly.
Xu Hong still has to add more fire there.
The candles flickered in the room.
Ji Yu practiced calligraphy for a while, and when she looked up, it was already the hour, and Magu and Mrs. Zhao were still waiting on the side.
She washed up briefly and let Magu and Mrs. Zhao go down to rest.
Ji Yu sat in front of the dressing table and looked at herself in the bronze mirror, she was more beautiful than a few days ago, her complexion was fairer and more delicate, not to mention, her eyebrows and eyes were also opened, and there was a touch of gloss between the eye waves.
She frowned and reached out to touch her face.
Such a face is a scourge after all.
"Jiaojiao. Mrs. Zhao left for a moment and then turned back.
Ji Wei looked up at her.
Under Ji Wei's gaze, Mrs. Zhao lowered her voice and said, "The master mother sent someone over to pass the word and ask Jiaojiao to come over and talk about it." ”
Ji Wei bowed slightly, as far as she knew, Ji Boyan was staying in Li's room again tonight.
In the past, when the Qin family was here, there were only two concubines in the mansion, the Wei family and the Li family, and now there is only one concubine in the mansion, the Li family.
Li is not yet thirty years old, and she will definitely get pregnant in the long run, but it is only a matter of time.
Without an heir in this backyard, it is difficult to gain a foothold after all.
Ji Yu was neatly dressed and took Mrs. Zhao to avoid everyone's eyes and ears and went to Wei's room.
Since Wei couldn't get pregnant, there was a hint of gloom in her eyes.
"Auntie has seen her mother. Wei was lying on the couch, and Ji Yu was blessed with her.
Wei slowly fell on Ji Yu at this time, and she sent everyone in the room without saying a word.
"Auntie, I invited you here this time because I want to discuss something with you. Wei's face was pale, and her voice was very low.
"If there is anything my mother commands. Ji Yu said softly, in all fairness, she didn't want the Wei family to fall, after all, she was now raised under the Wei family's name, which could be regarded as a combination of honor and disgrace.
"I've thought about it carefully, it's just a trivial matter to stuff a woman into the backyard, how to please the husband is the most important thing, what should I do in your opinion?" Wei Shi said as he looked at Ji Yu fixedly.
Ji Yu hooked her lips and smiled faintly: "Mother, how did Aunt Yue enter the mansion in the first place?"
Wei Shi was slightly stunned, and she looked at Ji Yu with a puzzled face.
Ji Yu said softly: "It's better to concoct it like this." ”
Wei Shi instantly understood what Ji Yu meant, and her eyes lit up: "This method is good." ”
Ji Yu stayed in her room for a moment and left.
After returning to the room, Ji Yu kept wondering why Gao Yin was angry?
She had a profitable deal, and she wanted to invite him to do it together, which could be regarded as repaying him a little favor, but he looked like he was rejecting people thousands of miles away.
Ji Yu lay on the couch, and after about half an hour, she fell asleep groggyly.
The night is as cool as water.
Gao Yin was still in the study, and he knew that Gao Chen and Jiang Ce had joined forces to commit the assassination of Jimo, but he didn't find any evidence, and their hands and feet were really clean.
If there is no evidence for this, then he will not be able to show it to the surface.
But he has always been a man who will repay him.
What he said to Gao Chen today, firstly, he wanted to warn Gao Chen, and secondly, he wanted him to mess with himself.
The flickering candles in the room stretched his figure long.
His eyes sank: "Jiangling, Jiangfeng." ”
"Lang Jun. Two people appeared in front of him in an instant.
Gao Yin looked at Jiang Ling and Jiang Feng intently, and said in a low voice: "Let people keep an eye on Jiang Ce and Gao Chen." ”
The two men arched their hands and said, "Yes." ”
Su Yun's voice sounded outside: "Lang Jun." ”
Gao Yin didn't speak.
Su Yun knocked on the door a few more times: "Lang Jun!"
"What's the matter?" Gao Yin said indifferently.
The master's mother asked the slave to come over and pass the word, asking Lang Jun to go to Tianning Temple with her early tomorrow morning to pray for three days. Su Yun said slowly.
Gao Yin lowered his eyes and said, "I know." ”
"Lang Jun rested earlier, and the slave retired. Su Yun Yingying Yifu turned to leave.
Gao Yin looked at Jiang Ling and Jiang Feng and said, "Stand down!"
"Yes. Jiang Ling and Jiang Feng turned around and left.
In the morning, before dawn, Gao Yin went to Tianning Temple with the Borage family.
The East vomited, and all the courtiers got into the carriage and went to the early court.
At this time, the vendors on the street have not yet come out, and the whole street seems deserted.
Xu Hong held the hand stove and sat drowsy in the carriage.
"Squeak......" At that moment, the carriage made a strange sound from somewhere.
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked up at He Zhang.
He Zhang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he listened intently to the movements around him.
"Bang......", the carriage made a loud noise.
The carriage suddenly tilted to the right, and there was a great tendency to tear apart.
"Ah......" Xu Hong's body fell to the right uncontrollably, and he shouted: "He Zhang." ”
"Squeak......" The whole carriage cracked at once.
Seeing that Xu Hong was about to fall.
He Zhang landed on his shoulder with one hand, grabbed him and landed firmly on the ground.
"Your Excellency, are you fine!" He Zhang looked at Xu Hong with a worried expression.
Xu Hong looked at the carriage that was still galloping, the wheels on the right side of the carriage had been left behind, the carriage was cracked, and the coachman was holding the reins tightly, but the horse seemed to be crazy, and he couldn't stop.
There are no pedestrians on the road, otherwise you have to hit people.
Seeing that Xu Hong didn't speak, He Zhang called again: "My lord!"
Xu Hong retracted his gaze at this time, he looked at He Zhang and said, "Let the carriage stop." ”
"......" He Zhang waved his sleeves.
......The horse that was running suddenly fell to the ground, and a long sword with a flickering cold light was inserted into the horse's belly, and a large amount of blood gushed out.
"Ah......" The coachman fell heavily to the ground, and his mouth was bleeding.
Xu Hong stood motionless in the cold wind, he looked at He Zhang with narrowed eyes and said, "Do you say this is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster?"
He Zhang arched his hand and said: "I don't know what Lord Hui said. ”
"Let's go back!" Xu Hong's eyes sank.
He Zhang looked at He Zhang with a puzzled expression: "Aren't you going to go to the morning court?"
"I sent a message to the king, I fell from the carriage, and fainted from my injuries. Xu Hong said word by word.
He Zhang looked at him intently.
Xu Hong turned around and left.
He had only taken a few steps before he fell backwards.
Fortunately, He Zhang helped him in time.
The news that Xu Hong was seriously injured and fainted soon spread throughout the government and the opposition.
The king himself ordered the imperial physician to treat him.
Although Wei exempted a group of people from asking for peace.
But Ji Yu also went to Wei's room every day to say goodbye.
The same is true of Li and Ji Yin, the two of them dare not slack off.
Wei Shi is in a bad mood these days, and she really doesn't want so many people to hang in front of her eyes, especially Li.
After they said goodbye, Wei said softly, "You all stand down!"
"Yes. "Everyone is blessed and ready to turn away.
At that time, Mrs. Ruan hurriedly walked in, she looked at Wei Shi in a panic and said, "Mastermother, the temple people in the palace are here, saying that they are here to pass on Mrs. Hui's message." ”
Everyone present was shocked.
Ji Yu stood there with her eyebrows lowered, her eyes full of doubts.
In the last life, Mrs. Hui never sent anyone to the mansion to spread any message!
Ji Boyan is just a historian, and in this powerful Linzi City, the battle for the throne definitely does not need to win him over.
Wei was seriously injured and couldn't get up.
Ji Yu followed the others and hurried to the front hall.
Zhu An, the eunuch next to Mrs. Hui, was already waiting in the front hall with someone.
As soon as they entered the front hall, everyone knelt down.
Now that there is no queen in the harem, Mrs. Hui has always acted in the style of a queen, and she is really majestic, even a temple man beside her, Zhu An, also looks like no one in her eyes.
Zhu An sat on the main seat, he took a sip of the tea on the table, and swept his gaze over everyone one by one.
After a moment, he slowly put down the tea cup in his hand and said casually: "Who is the concubine of the Ji family?"
At that moment, everyone looked at Ji Yu.
Ji Yan looked panicked, she slowly raised her head, looked at Zhu An timidly, and said in a trembling voice: "If you go back to adulthood, I will be the Ji family's aunt!"
She said as her body trembled uncontrollably.
