Chapter 138: The Talk of Wangbei Pavilion
King Rong had just returned to Beijing for only two days, and he naturally didn't know who Su Jin was, so even in the entire Jin Tomb, any ordinary person who had never met him could introduce Su Jin's identity at a glance, and Zhong Rui didn't know who the woman he saw and was about to go to the interview was. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Or in fact, he only needs to ask people to inquire a little, and he can know Su Jin's identity almost without even checking, but he doesn't either.
So what he was going to was an invitation from a strange woman whom he knew nothing about.
When he arrived at the Wangbei Pavilion outside the East City, Su Jin had already arrived there in advance.
Although he didn't know the identity and purpose of the other party, since he invited the appointment in this way, it was obvious that the other party should not want to attract the attention of others, out of respect, Zhong Rui chose to leave the house from the back door, only brought one of his confidants, and went to the appointment in a low-key in the most ordinary civilian carriage.
Zhong Rui left the carriage next to the official road a few miles below the Wangbei Pavilion, stopped the lieutenant who wanted to accompany him because he was worried about his own safety, and walked alone along the stone steps and path to the pavilion.
In the Wangbei Pavilion, on the stone table is a chess game that has been paved, a pot of burning charcoal fire next to the table, and a pot of Yunding fog tip that has just been boiled.
Next to the stone table, Su Jin was wearing a thick fox fur cloak, his hands were gently hanging on the charcoal fire, with a light smile on his face and a calm expression.
Seeing Zhong Rui coming up, Su Jin got up and smiled, "The folk girl has seen Lord Rong!" ”
Zhong Rui stepped into the pavilion, looked at the thin woman in white in front of him who was wearing a thick fox fur and a moon silver mask, as if she was weak, and then looked at the chess game that had been laid out on the stone table but the chess pieces had not moved, and said with a smile, "The girl invited this king to come here, but I don't know why?" ”
"Shouldn't the prince ask me who I am first?" Su Jin said with a smile.
, Zhong Rui smiled faintly, "If the girl wants to tell the king, the king naturally doesn't need to ask, if the girl doesn't want to tell the king, is it useful for the king to ask?" ”
Su Jin raised his hand, "Lord Wang, please take a seat!" ”
Zhong Rui sat down on the side opposite Su Jin, and Bi Xi behind him hurriedly stepped forward to make tea for the two.
Naturally, he looked at the thick fox fur on Su Jin's shoulders, and then at the charcoal fire burning on the stone table, as if he had guessed something, and said with a smile, "It seems that the girl seems to be very afraid of cold?" ”
"It's already the root of the old disease, so that the prince can laugh!" Su Jin smiled lightly and said, "I heard that the prince knows chess and loves chess, would you like to fight with me for a game?" ”
Zhong Rui smiled faintly, "I don't dare to know chess, I love chess, like-minded people are rare, the girl is invited, why not?" ”
"Then the first son, will the prince go first or will I go first?"
"Let's go first, girl! The order doesn't matter! ”
Su Jin smiled and nodded, picked up the sunspot in his hand, and said with a smile, "Then, I'm not welcome, I'll go first!" ”
Zhong Rui smiled and nodded, and after Su Jin fell, he followed a white son into the game.
Then he picked up the teacup and raised it to his lips, blew it gently, took a shallow sip, looked slightly, and then smiled lightly, "This tea is Nanling's new Genting Mist Tip this year?" ”
Su Jin smiled and nodded, "Lord Rong lives in the Beishu Desert Pass with difficult conditions all the year round, and he doesn't want to know so about tea!" ”
"It's not, it's just that the day before yesterday, Brother Qing gave Benwang a box of tea, and specially emphasized that it was this year's newly produced Yunding Wujian, and Benwang drank it once, and remembered it!"
"Does the prince like this tea?"
Zhong Rui shook his head with a smile, "I can't say I like it, I can't say I don't like it, as the girl said, this king lives in the difficult Beishu Desert Pass all the year round, and he has long been accustomed to coarse tea and light rice, and this kind of good tea is not much different from other ordinary tea!" ”
Su Jin smiled and nodded, "This is also true, the prince is different from those of us who live a comfortable and luxurious life, what is the hardship of hard work, what is the sweetness of wealth and nobility, what is the heart of the prince, it is the family and country of the people of Li." ”
Zhong Rui smiled faintly, "Being in his position is just a matter of duty and perennial habits, and the girl has promoted this king!" ”
Su Jin touched the sunspot from the jade bowl, looked at the place where Zhong Rui fell lightly, and smiled slightly, "Lord Wang's eyes, such a secret secret can be seen!" ”
"But the girl doesn't seem surprised, or rather, it's more like the girl deliberately set up to test the depth of the king's doubts, and the drunkard doesn't mean to drink, right?"
Su Jin held the teacup in his hand and smiled lightly, "The prince can see the chess game so thoroughly, so what about the court game?" ”
Zhong Rui smiled, "This king knows that the girl invited this king to come here, definitely not only to make tea and play against this king, but most of it, it is related to the current situation in the court, right?" ”
Su Jin smiled and nodded, "The prince really understands people, so I don't need to analyze the current situation of the dynasty, everyone knows what King Qing wants to do, Emperor Chen has begun to act against King Qing, and King Qing is almost silent, I only ask, Da Chen's throne, is King Rong willing to continue to sit on King Yu back then, or change to King Qing now?" ”
"Girl, do you know how disrespectful you are to the royal family by saying this?"
Su Jin took a sip of tea with a smile and said lightly, "I know, a capital crime, and even more so a full house of beheadings, right!" ”
Zhong Rui's hand as he picked up the chess piece paused slightly, and his expression was slightly different.
"Since I can say that, I have the capital I said, or I don't care about life and death, or I have the absolute ability to protect myself, but the prince guesses, do I belong to the former or the latter?"
"There is no contradiction between the two, from the time the girl saw this king to the present, except for the first sentence of claiming to be a people's girl, everything else is 'me', so this king speculates that you are the one who has been standing behind the ninth brother for the past year, right?"
"So the prince knows about me?"
Zhong Rui smiled lightly, "That's it!" I don't know, but I speculated that there might be such a person, because many things before, with the ninth brother's own ability, may not be able to do it! But the further I got, the more I doubt that my previous speculation is correct! ”
"Because this person is becoming more and more like nothing, and many of King Qing's actions are becoming more and more chaotic and even stupid, right?"
"You are the man of the Four Emperor Brothers?!" Zhong Rui squinted his eyes and said, but quickly shook his head in denial, "No, you're not, the fourth emperor brother won't be stupid enough to make some trouble for himself, but he is definitely not the ninth brother's person, so, who is the girl?" Or, neither?! ”
Su Jin smiled lightly, "Neither of these two are true!" But the prince also knows that I am a woman, of course, it can't be myself, as for who it is, is there no more suitable candidate for this position in the prince's mind? ”
Zhong Rui was surprised, what does a more suitable candidate for this position mean...... "You won't mean...... Acting king? ”
Su Jin smiled lightly, "It's the acting king!" ”
"So, who are you?!"
"The prince finally asked this question! But why don't we discuss this after this game? ”
Zhong Rui nodded, "Okay!" ”
An hour later, the game was settled.
"The prince's chess skills are very high!" Su Jin smiled.
Zhong Rui smiled lightly, "If you don't look at the chess game and only listen to the girl's words, this king may mistakenly think that this king has won!" ”
Su Jin smiled lightly, "I am ashamed to say it, not only in Da Chen, but in the whole world, there will never be more than five people who can surpass me!" ”
"The girl reminds me of a man in this king!"
"Xiao Mi, is it?"
Zhong Rui was shocked, "How does the girl know? ”
"Of course I do!" Su Jin raised his eyes to look at Zhong Rui and said with a light smile, "Because the person sitting opposite the prince now is the one that the prince remembers!" ”
Zhong Rui was stunned, and suddenly smiled.
"The prince doesn't seem to believe it?" Su Jin asked with a smile.
Zhong Rui looked at Su Jin fixedly, "You said you are Xiao Mi, but the Xiao family ...... Xiao Mi was no longer in the world twelve years ago, this sounds like a big joke, how do you want this king to believe you? ”
Su Jin smiled lightly, "Has the prince seen Xiao Mi's corpse with his own eyes?" Isn't it? Since there is none, how can the prince conclude that Xiao Mi must have died a long time ago, and there is no possibility for her to live well in the world? ”
Zhong Rui was silent, half paid, and then raised his eyes to look at Su Jindao, "You, are you really Xiao Mi?" ”
Su Jin smiled and nodded, "Or it seems that it is indeed unbelievable, a person who was no longer in the world more than ten years ago actually appeared alive in front of him today, however, this is the truth!" Xiao Mi not only did not die back then, but now in front of the prince, I am Xiao Mi! After a lapse of 12 years, Xiao Mi is back now! ”
"Me, can I see what you look like?" Zhong Ruidao.
Su Jin nodded, "Yes." I don't know if the prince still remembers Xiao Mi's appearance back then, but the current Xiao Mi is no longer what he was back then! ”
Zhong Rui didn't understand what Su Jin meant by this, but when he watched Su Jin put down the teacup and raised his hand to slowly remove the mask on his face, he was completely shocked by what he saw, "Are you really Mi'er?!" ”
Su Jin looked at Zhong Rui calmly, smiled lightly, and said in a faint voice, "The right side of the face has been destroyed, and the left side of the face should still be able to recognize some of the appearance of the past!" ”
"But why is the right side of your face ......?"
"Is the prince surprised why my face has become like this? When I desperately escaped from the back door of the fire in Xiaofu, because I couldn't dodge in time, I was accidentally hit on the right side of my face by a falling burning wooden bar, and I fled thousands of miles before that, and I didn't even have food and shelter, let alone the conditions to heal the wounds. ”
"These thirteens know about it, huh?"
Su Jin shook his head with a smile, "He doesn't know, don't say this, I didn't even tell him my true identity!" ”
"Why didn't you tell him? But you are helping him now, I don't believe you will not have any contact with him, so what identity and position do you use to help him do this? ”
"My current public identity is Miss Su Jiasan of Yingzhou, and her hidden identity is the head of the 'Undercurrent', and what I explained to him is Xie Qingcian, the widow of Xie Shiji, the assassin of Sangyang back then!"
"What about King Qing?"
"Naturally, no, I haven't even revealed my true identity on the shore, let alone King Qing!" Su Jin shook his head with a smile, raised his hand and gently put the mask he had taken off again.
Zhong Rui smiled sadly, "I really don't dare to imagine, Mi'er, you...... It's still alive! If Thirteen knew, he would be very happy! ”
"He's going to be happy, but I can't tell him, not that I don't want to, but I can't!"
Zhong Rui frowned, shook his head lightly, and said, "I don't understand!" ”
"The prince is an outsider, I don't know how the prince thinks of the so-called 'forced palace' change twelve years ago, with the transparency of the prince, I must have guessed some of it, the hidden prince was framed, the seven princes were wronged and sat together, implicated thousands of people, the prince's mansion, Gan Wangfu, Yi Wangfu, Tingwangfu, Xiaofu, Yonghou Mansion, Xue Mansion, Yang Mansion were all bloodbathed...... Do you know how many lives they have taken when they are all settled? It was the lives of more than 17,900 people, who were implicated in death by a trumped-up charge at all! ”
"I am already a person who has died once, and since I have survived, I cannot live in vain! The truth of the disclosure must be revealed, and the accounts of the liquidation must also be liquidated, the responsibility I shoulder is too heavy, but no one can predict what this road will face, so I will bear this responsibility alone, even if there is an abyss in front of me, I can only be the one who falls, and anyway, I am already standing under the abyss, and I can't get out! ”
"You want to move the Four Emperor Brothers and the Queen Mother, right?"
"It's not just Zhong Jing, it's the whole Da Chen that I want to move! Do you know why no matter how much effort the imperial court puts in, it can't control a small inch of Yingzhou? Because, that's my place! As long as I don't want to, he Zhong Jing will never want to stand firm in that place. ”
"So, you're ready to change hands, aren't you?"
"Yes, and not only! Of course, I believe that after the shore is in power, even if I don't interfere with these things, he will do better than I thought! ”
"Mi'er invited me here today, so sure I'll be on your side and Thirteen?"
"If the prince is still the Seven Emperor Brother who always likes to go against Mi'er, loves to pick and tease, I believe it will! Of course, even if it is not, I still believe that the prince will stand on the thirteenth side, because the prince is concerned about the family and the country, and the people of Li, not for anything else, but for the people below to live a better and more stable life, for this great Chen country, the prince will not fail to see that compared to Zhong Jing and Zhong Qi, the shore is more suitable for this position than any of them, isn't it? ”
"So, what does Mi'er need me to do?"
"I need the prince to cooperate with my next step of arrangement!"
"Please!"
"First of all, at the right time, promise King Qing's wooing!"
"Promise? Isn't it a rejection? Zhong Rui was puzzled.
Su Jin shook his head with a smile, "Promise, it doesn't mean that you must honor it!" ”
