Chapter 16: But the king's heart is the same

"Tell this king, who are you?"

After hearing Zhong An's words, Su Jin wanted to laugh, so she laughed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Such a clear laughter, as if everything had nothing to do with her, made Zhong An feel deeply angry for the first time in many years, "This king asks again, who are you?" ”

"If I still don't say it, then, will the prince kill me?" Su Jin chuckled.

"Don't test the bottom line of this king, otherwise, this king will make you regret it!"

"Yes! But I, Su Jin, do things, but I have never regretted the word! ”

This time, it was not only Su Jin who was smiling, but also Zhong An, and it was as clear and clear as Su Jin's smile at the beginning.

Then, Zhong An put away the dagger around Su Jin's neck, slowly returned to the desk and sat down, and laughed loudly, "Kezhi, make tea for Miss Su Jin!" ”

The man in Tsing Yi, who had been standing beside the door, guarding against Su Jin's every move with his saber in his hand, heard Zhong An's words, looked at Su Jin coldly, and then let go of the saber at his waist, walked to the opposite side of Zhong An, and bowed to Su Jin and said, "Miss Su, please!" ”

Su Jin smiled lightly, walked to the opposite side of Zhong An and sat down without humility.

The man in Tsing Yi took another teacup and made a cup of tea for Su Jin and put it on the table in front of Su Jin, although the action was handled lightly, but his face was not very polite, and when he sat down next to Zhong An, he also shook the hem of his clothes into a gust of wind, and then sat there stiffly with an iron face, without even looking in the direction of Su Jin, which shows how unkind he is to the strange woman in front of him who doesn't know her appearance, identity, or purpose.

"Say it! Who the hell are you? What do you want to tell this king when you asked him to come here? And what is the purpose? Zhong An said lightly.

"Is it convenient to say?"

"Kezhi is not an outsider!"

Su Jin smiled and nodded, "Then, let me ask the prince a question first: in the palace change eleven years ago, Prince Yin was worried that the first emperor would abolish the prince, and he raised troops to force the palace in order to protect the succession to the throne, and King Gan, King Yi, King Ting, General Xiao Zhi, Marquis Yong, Xue family, Yang family, etc. are all henchmen of Prince Yin, I don't want to ask what the prince knows, I just want to ask the prince, all this, do you still believe it now?" ”

Zhong An smiled suddenly, "It turns out that Miss Su actually looks at this king like this!" Not only does this king not believe it now, but he never believed it in the past! ”

Su Jin smiled lightly, "Then the prince must also remember the Jiangzhou Thorn History Xie Hongji back then!" ”

Zhong An frowned slightly, and said lightly, "Remember!" ”

"Su Jin's real name, Xie Qingciao, and his father is Xie Hongji!"

Zhong An was suddenly startled, not only Zhong An, but even Zhou Kezhi, the commander of the Acting Wangfu Army, who had been drinking his own tea quietly, was already shocked at this time, and looked at Su Jin in disbelief.

"You want to say that the Xie family back then has already been beheaded by the whole family, and it is impossible to have a living daughter, right?" Su Jin smiled lightly, "But who stipulates that the daughter of the Xie family must grow up in the Xie family?" Who says that no one can survive a family disaster? ”

Zhong An frowned slightly, was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice, "So, you are the daughter of the Xie family, but you are not raised in the Xie family, and you are a survivor of the disaster after the destruction of the Xie family?" ”

Su Jin nodded with a light smile, "Because I am a concubine, and according to the soothsayer, my eight characters are in conflict with my father, so I was sent by my mother to raise my relatives, and I can only return to my house as an adult. After that, my cousin, who had adopted me for more than ten years, was also worried about my identity and was affected by me, so he gave me some money and swept me out of the house and broke off any relationship. Later, I went to Yingzhou, and encountered some changes in the middle, and was taken in by the head of the Su family, a big merchant in Yingzhou, and thought that he was a righteous daughter, so he had Su Jin who stood in front of the prince today. ”

"Since you are the Xie family, you should know that you come to Jinling, once your identity is exposed, what will be the consequences that will await you, can you tell this king, what kind of motivation can make you take such a huge risk to come here?"

Su Jin picked up the tea that had been brewing in front of him for a long time, took a sip, and then put it down, then looked up at Zhong An, and said with a light smile, "If I say that I am here for the prince, will you believe the prince?" ”

"For the king?"

Su Jin smiled and nodded, "Yes!" For the king! ”

Zhong An smiled faintly, "Can you give this king an explanation?" ”

"Well, Su Jin still has a question to ask the prince, if the so-called palace change eleven years ago, I have sufficient evidence to prove that this is simply a conspiracy designed by someone, and it is a shocking unjust case, then ask the prince, will you be willing to overturn the case for those who bear the infamy and die unjustly?"

Zhong An's face changed suddenly, and he said quickly, "What did you say?" Do you have ample evidence? ”

"The prince hasn't answered my question yet!"

"Of course I do! Don't say it's me Zhong An, anyone in this world who still has a conscience will do this! Zhong An said in a deep voice.

Su Jin bowed his head and smiled lightly, "It's not that there are no people without conscience in this world, it's just that many people's consciences have been deceived by false appearances!" The rest of the people can only have the heart to be powerless and would rather remain silent forever, the prince should be the only person who can still say this sentence in this world! ”

Zhong An took a sip of tea and raised his eyes to look straight at the woman in white under the mask on the opposite seat, "Now, can you explain what you said before?" ”

"Because I have to overturn the case of Zhaoxue for my Xie family, but this premise is that we must first be able to completely overturn the case of the palace change back then, and you, Lord Wang, are the only people in the world who are willing and able to overturn the case for the palace change of the year!"

"That's why you deliberately approached Meng Ying and entered this king's mansion, and then passed those information to this king through Kong Ruoshu?"

Su Jin smiled lightly, "You can also say the same!" At least for now, we have a common purpose, but there is one thing that the prince must be clear, once we overturn the case, the first thing to bear is Emperor Chen! That is, Prince Yu who rescued the driver in the palace change back then. And then there is King Qing, there is Empress Dowager Xian, etc., etc., they will never allow such a thing to happen! ”

"This king knows!"

Su Jin picked up the teacup, gently shook the tea inside, and said lightly, "Lord Wang, let Su Jin say a big contradictory word, as long as Zhong Jing is still in power for a day, this case will definitely not be overturned!" ”

Zhong An's brows furrowed suddenly, "What do you mean Miss Su?" ”

"It means that if we want to overturn the case, we must first bring down Zhong Jing! What's more, until now, hasn't the prince understood what role Zhong Jing played in the palace change that year? Su Jin said in a deep voice, "The person who wanted to seize the throne back then was not Prince Yin Zhong Ci at all, but King Yu Zhongjing!" The most ironic thing is that he even succeeded! ”

Zhong An smiled faintly, "Throughout the ages, the king has been defeated and defeated, and the bottom is like this!" ”

"So now, I want the prince to take the throne of Zhong Jing, is the prince willing?" Su Jin said with a light smile.

Zhong An's face sank, his right hand holding the teacup paused in mid-air, and when Su Jin's words just fell, Zhou Kezhi next to him instantly drew his sword, and the sword pointed directly at Su Jin, "Presumptuous!" In front of the prince, you dare to say such a rebellious thing! ”

Su Jin smiled faintly, "It's a big rebellion, it's a big rebellion!" My Xie family was wiped out by the word "great rebellion" back then, and now I, Su Jin, am probably destined to embark on a path of great rebellion! ”

Zhong An put down the teacup, motioned for Zhou Kezhi to put away the sword and sit down, then looked at Su Jin again, and said in a deep voice, "The case will definitely be turned over, but this king will not agree to the way Miss Su said!" ”

"The prince must agree!"

Zhong An smiled faintly, "Miss Su, is this persecuting this king?" ”

Su Jin smiled, "Naturally I don't dare, Su Jin just wants the prince to understand that in this Da Chen's world, only the prince is the master, and it is possible to overturn the case for the palace change of the year!" ”

"But if this king really did this, then what is the difference between the current king and the prince Yu back then?"

"There is a difference, of course there is a difference! Let's not talk about how King Yu was back then, only about Emperor Chen today! Does the prince think that he is a qualified king? Under him, what has become of the current court atmosphere? Up to the six Shangshu, down to the local officials and pawns, all of them are gangs and factions who climb fame and follow the power to pursue merit and profit, and see the wind and rudder, honest and honest and serving the people is simply like a big joke for these people, what kind of court is such a court? How many mob riots have occurred in various parts of Dachen every year in recent years, and what are the reasons? Every year, how many homeless people leave their homes and pour into Jinling just to survive? And so on, no one should know these better than you, Lord Wang! If you were in that position, would you allow this to happen? ”

This time, Zhong An was silent, and together with Zhou Kezhi, who was sitting next to him, he didn't say a word.

Su Jin was not in a hurry, he made another cup of tea by himself, held it in his hand and shook the tea leaves floating on it slightly, drank it slowly, and waited patiently for Zhong An's answer.

Zhong An got up and walked to the window, looking at the long street outside, all the way to the north, and at the end of the street was Da Chen's Imperial Palace.

"This king promises you!"

Su Jin smiled, "Su Jin knows that the prince is not for the case of the past, but for the millions of Li people in Dachen today, and he will definitely agree to Su Jin!" ”

"But this king has the conditions of this king, and this king will never use the way to harm others to achieve himself, and don't bring the cruel and vicious methods you commonly use to this king!"

"These princes can rest assured! Su Jin has Su Jin's own proportions, and he also knows that the prince's heart will definitely not use those means that harm others and benefit himself, but within the bottom line of the prince, Su Jin still hopes that the prince can do his best to cooperate, because although Su Jin is planning things, but to succeed, it must be in the prince! ”

"Good!"

"Since the prince has agreed! Then Su Jin let the prince see someone again! Su Jin smiled lightly, raised his hand and slapped his palms crisply.

Then, the door of the private room was pushed open, and a man in a dark robe walked in, bowed to Su Jin, and stood still in a position where several people could fully see.

From the moment the man in the robe stepped into the room, Zhou Kezhi was already completely in shock, he raised his hand and pointed at the man who had just come in, and then looked at the other man in the room, "Lord Wang, why is he...... You ......"

"He's exactly the same as your lord, isn't he?" Su Jin smiled and said, "If Commander Zhou is not here but outside now, and then he walks out from here, will Commander Zhou just follow him away?" ”

Zhou Kezhi didn't seem to be listening to Su Jin's words, but only looked at the man who was almost exactly the same as Zhong An's clothes, appearance and body shape, and shook his head vigorously and muttered, "It's too similar!" It's so much like ......."

"The prince may not know that Su Jin's current identity is from King Qing's side! I slowly explained the reason to the prince later, but in the current situation, it will be very inconvenient for me to meet the prince in the future, so I prepared a stand-in for the prince! In the future, if the prince needs to see me, it will still be this private room, and my people will take the prince from the secret passage directly to the brocade house where I live now, as for here, he will hide his eyes and ears here! If necessary, I will also go to the prince's mansion through the princess! ”

Zhong An smiled faintly, "This king, but listen to Miss Su's arrangement!" ”

"Su Jin has one more thing, he wants the prince to cooperate, that is, this stand-in for the prince, externally he can be said to be almost the same as the prince himself, but one thing is that in terms of words and deeds, he can't be exactly the same as the prince, and most of the time this point may not be used at all, but if you encounter special circumstances, such as in a person who is very familiar with the prince, the consequences may be serious!"

"Then what do you want this king to do?"

"It's very simple, let him go back to the palace with the prince, the prince doesn't need to teach him anything, just let him have more opportunities to see the prince, occasionally have some ordinary exchanges with him, his understanding is extremely high, anyone who has seen it once, no matter what it is, can do it without forgetting, and it only takes seven days, Su Jin dares to guarantee that even if it is King Qing or Princess Meng, it is difficult to see the flaws for a while!"

"But when this king came, he only brought one person with him, and there was no way to mix it, not to mention that his appearance is so similar to this king, how can this king take him back?"

Su Jin smiled lightly, "Zixu, take off the mask and let the prince see what you really look like!" ”

The man in the black robe smiled at Su Jin and bowed, "Yes, girl!" Immediately raised his hand, and under the surprised gaze of Zhong An and Zhou Kezhi, he actually tore off a mask from his original face, and then another face appeared, but it was completely different from what he had seen before.

"His current identity is a very good pianist invited by Qingfeng Building, so is it still convenient?"

Zhong An smiled faintly, "Miss Su is well-arranged, of course you can!" ”

"Zixu, you go down first!" Su Jin said in harmony towards the man in the robe.

"Yes, girl!"

"There is another question, and I think the prince himself should be very clear about this question, that is, the acting princess Meng! I don't think the role of the Meng family in the relationship between the prince and Emperor Chen is not unaware of it, and almost all of the prince's mansion are Meng people! As long as she wants to, it will be difficult for any of the prince's actions to escape her eyes, and naturally she can't hide from Emperor Chen! Before meeting the prince, I had already considered whether to get rid of the Meng clan, but this was not the best way, and I think the prince would not agree to me using this method! But now this problem can't be delayed, and the prince should know this! ”

Zhong An smiled faintly, picked up the teapot and made a cup of tea for himself, "So, is Miss Su going to let this king divorce her?" ”

Su Jin shook his head with a smile, "I think if I could really take a break, the prince would have done this a long time ago!" Maybe maybe in the first place, the prince wouldn't marry her at all! ”

"So what?"

"The best way is not to let the Meng clan leave, but to let the Meng clan stand on the side of the prince! I know that there is no real name between the prince and the Meng family, but I can also see that the Meng family actually has feelings for the prince, so I want the prince to try to accept the Meng family! ”

Zhong An's face suddenly paused, and he said lightly, "This, I'm afraid this king can't do it!" ”

"The prince can do it! I'm not asking the prince to fall in love with Meng or whatever, but just to ask the prince not to deliberately alienate, not to be too silent, just treat it like an ordinary friend, it's enough! In fact, if the prince could have treated her like Concubine Kong from the beginning, I think the situation would not have been the way it is now! It's just that the prince doesn't want to. ”

"Miss Su, is this, take advantage of it?"

Su Jin smiled, "I admit it, yes!" I am going to use the Meng family's feelings for the prince to win her over and make her a pawn for us to deal with Emperor Chen's eyes! The prince must think that there is no morality, but I am just a businessman, and businessmen have always only been for a good word, so what morality is there to speak of? ”

"This king doesn't mean this, and it can be seen that Miss Su is not that kind of person, if it wasn't for the forced choice, Miss Su shouldn't have done this, since that's the case, then, this king promised Miss Su that's it!"

Su Jin smiled faintly and bowed slightly, "Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!" ”

"This king takes the liberty of asking, is this Qingfeng Tower, like Jiyue Pavilion, also part of your Su family's tea shop?"

Su Jin smiled and shook his head, "No! Su Jin can call the power of the entire Su Tea House at any time anywhere, but the Su Tea House is not all of Su Jin! ”

Zhong An smiled faintly, "This king understands!" ”

Su Jin smiled and quietly drank the tea in his hand and did not speak again.

Zhong An put down the teacup in his hand, straightened the hem of his clothes, and then slowly got up, "It's not too early, this king should go back!" Miss Su, farewell! ”

Su Jin stood up, smiled and said, "Although this is Su Jin's place, after all, there are many people outside, so Su Jin won't send the prince out!" ”

"Miss Su is polite!"

Su Jin bowed slightly, "Congratulations to the prince!" ”

Zhong An bowed slightly to Su Jin, and then turned around and walked out of the room with Zhou Keyi.

After seeing Zhong An and the others go out, Su Jin sat back in the position just now, looking at the remaining half of the unfinished tea on the opposite side, his eyes were a little sluggish, but at this time, Su Jin was actually like a mirror.

Shore, those things you don't want to do, I'll do it for you; If you don't want to hurt, I'll hurt you......

With me on this road, you don't need to worry about it.
