Chapter 21 The King of Zhennan Returns to the Capital
Wang Yilong walked to Chen Jing's tomb, holding the tombstone, and the tears came down involuntarily. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
I remembered that the last time I returned to Beijing, it was four months ago, when Chen Jing took Wang Yilong's hand, and was very excited, saying that the person who assassinated the master brother Zhao Yuanling had an eyebrow, and now he is visiting everywhere to find out the whereabouts of witnesses.
But two months ago, he was so depressed that the flying pigeon sent a message to Wang Yilong, saying that the witness had found it, but he was one step too late, and the witness died of a violent illness somehow.
At that time, Wang Yilong replied and told him to let it go and not pursue it again, but Chen Jing did not listen.
"Fourth brother, why are you so axial?"
Wang Yilong sat in front of the tombstone, sprinkled wine on the ground, and burned paper money.
I think that at the beginning, not long after Li Ju became the emperor, Wang Yilong vaguely felt a little uneasy. Where this uneasiness came from, he couldn't tell. He once advised Chen Jing that it was better to settle on the East China Sea, which was the scope of Chen Jing's defense. There, you can be at ease and do whatever you want.
Wang Yilong understands Chen Jing's character, he is bold and straightforward, but he is also easy to offend people.
Chen Jing didn't take Wang Yilong's words to heart, he coveted the excitement of the capital, and he still had something to do, that is, to track down the murderer.
He handed over the task of patrolling the coast of the East China Sea to his deputy, and he himself has been living in the capital city of Dongwangfu.
Six years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the clues to assassinate Zhao Yuanling have been broken one after another, but Chen Jing is still unwilling to let go. As a result, his life was lost in the hands of Yang Ji, which Wang Yilong did not expect in any way.
Wang Yilong stood up, what he had to do now was to find Chen Jing's sons and daughters immediately and take them to southern Xinjiang. There, at least, he could keep them safe.
However, where will these two children go, and will Yue Xiao be with them? With such a big target, how could they hide it so well? Who else is helping them? Will they be assassinated?
All kinds of doubts appeared in Wang Yilong's mind.
The capital is too complicated, and when Wang Yilong walked back, he remembered that when he came back last time, many ministers secretly came to visit him and gave him gifts.
The gang struggle in the palace has always been very complicated, Wang Yilong knows in his heart that he is in the whirlpool of power, and it is impossible to clean himself, he can only play the role of not refusing to come in the whirlpool of power. Because he won't stay in the capital for long, he doesn't want to have a bad move against anyone. He had no interest in the struggle for power, believing that no one had yet been able to shake his position as King of Zhennan.
However, a repression invisibly hung over his heart.
Sister Wang Xinhui said in the letter that her power in the harem was gradually deprived. Now the queen Yang is awake and showing her talents.
Wang Yilong has little interest in the harem, and the open and secret battles between women are nothing more than for an emperor.
Speaking of this, Wang Yilong was like eating a dead fly.
At first, Li Ju arranged Wang Xinhui in the harem, which was offered as a gift to the queen mother, but later there were too many rumors, and it was said that the emperor often went to the queen mother to discuss things, and he stayed in the middle of the night.
Although Wang Xinhui is the queen mother, she is still young after all, and she is also a widow, the so-called widow has many rights and wrongs in front of the door, which is not bad at all.
However, the outspoken Chen Jing told him that this was true.
Once Li Ju drank too much, he told Chen Jing that he liked Wang Xinhui when he was young, but later she married Zhao Yuanling.
Chen Jing said that as soon as Li Ju drank too much, he mentioned Wang Xinhui in his mouth.
Until one day, Wang Xinhui sent a girl to find Xue Ying, telling her that she wanted to go to Dongwangfu to live for a while, asked her to clean a yard, said that she was pregnant, and asked her to help find a reliable Langzhong to have an abortion for her.
When Wang Yilong heard the news, he sat there all afternoon without saying a word.
In the end, it was his wife Zhou Jie who comforted him.
"Now that Zhao Yuanling is dead, what do you want your sister to do? Find another person to marry, do you think it's possible? Even if you are a rich family, how can you compare with Zhao Yuanling? He is your elder brother, and he is respected as the first emperor of the northern country. Can't stand it, aren't you looking for a face? Do you want your sister to do the same? Then you have face? This is her own willingness, Li Ju is good to her, they are happy with each other, what do you have to worry about? What's the matter with you? Isn't it just that between men and women! ”
"It's just ??????"
Wang Yilong got up from the cemetery, and there was already a carriage sent by the Queen Mother waiting there.
Wang Yilong entered the harem, and the concubines avoided it one by one.
In the harem of the northern country, the only men who can enter are Chen Jing and Wang Yilong.
When she arrived at the Queen Mother's Palace, Wang Xinhui sent all the father-in-law's palace maids. Personally pour tea for Wang Yilong.
"Is there the whereabouts of Chen Yu's brother and sister?" Wang Yilong asked.
"No, Chen Yu and Chen Yao were taken away by a girl named Su Man!"
"Didn't you say that you were taken by Yue Xiao?"
"No, Xue Ying told me that Yue Xiao was just buying time for Chen Yu and them to escape, and luring away the officers and soldiers. As for where they would go, even Xue Ying didn't know, saying that Su Man didn't tell her for safety. ”
"Oh, so they're still alive? Will he be assassinated by Yankee? ”
"How is that possible? Yang Ji even killed Chen Jing blatantly, and will assassinate Chen Yu and them? ”
"Oh!" Wang Yilong said excitedly: "Then will they go to me?" ”
"Su Man said that the road to southern Xinjiang is far away, and I am afraid that if I am halfway there, I will be intercepted by Yanji, and she will not go to you for the time being. However, Xue Ying has two girls, called Xiao Cuilinghua, who will go to your house to find you. ”
"Two girls, what's this called? A Zhennan Palace, can't arrange them? What do you mention them for? Wang Yilong was not interested in the two girls at all.
"Chen Jing said that it was not Yang Ji who wanted his life, but someone else!" Wang Xinhui stood up and refilled tea for Wang Yilong.
"Who is it?"
"He didn't know that Yang Ji had seen him in prison and told him that Yang Ji was strict and didn't say who it was."
"I already knew!"
"You know?"
"Although Yang Ji is powerful, he has not dared to touch the East Palace, I am sure of this. Otherwise, I'll raid his house as soon as I get back! ”
"Before you came back, I heard that the ministers were talking about how you would take revenge!"
"How? Yang Ji's old fox has already arrived, but I'm afraid that even his son doesn't understand what happened to his father, why did he frame Chen Jing, and he is still in the dark. By the way, how did Dongwangfu get the news? ”
"You mean Chen Yu and they escaped?"
Wang Yilong nodded, he took a sip of tea and put down the cup.
"It was revealed to me by the manager Lin Huawen quietly!"
"Letter from the German Gazette?"
"His goal is too big, how could I arrange for him to go? I'm afraid that as soon as he walks on his front foot, Yanki's cronies will find out that there are many people staring at him, so I let Yanzi go. ”
"It's her, I said!"
Wang Yilong suddenly realized, but he forgot about her.
The swallow in Wang Xinhui's mouth, known as Feiyan, is now twenty years old, but he is only as tall as an eight- or nine-year-old child, thin, pale, and sick.
She has followed Wang Xinhui since she was a child. On weekdays in the palace, she speaks only and has low self-esteem, if it weren't for the Queen Mother's side, no one would look down on her at all.
Even so, the palace maids and eunuchs didn't take her seriously.
However, her light skills are by no means comparable to the palace guards. Because of her light body, she fell silently, and she had a black fox fur coat given to her by the master, and she went up to the room at night and crossed the wall, even if she was discovered, she thought it was just a fox.
She was the one who sent the letter to the East Palace.
