50: Storm is coming
The atmosphere in the car was very oppressive, and Rong Jiang could feel the chill around Zhao Liang, and that he was indeed angry now. Although she is not so transparent in love, she can also faintly feel that this trip to Jiangbei, Zhao Liang is very different to her, but she doesn't understand what this is.
In the dead of night, the sound of the carriage rolling across the ground when it was moving, mixed with the calls of unknown birds in the night sky, came into the car together, and the sound hit Rong Jiang's heart, she never felt that staying with the same person would be so breathless.
Zhao Liang said that she cared too much about Cheng Yi, which was true.
The ancestral home of the Cheng family is in Daizhou, and the ancestors of his family started with Emperor Taizu, and later Emperor Taizu set the capital of Yecheng and gave the ancestor of the Cheng family a hereditary title, and then returned to Daizhou to guard. When Cheng Yi's grandfather's generation arrived, Emperor Taizong moved his grandfather back to Beijing and received the title of secretary of the military department.
So Cheng Yi and Rong Jiang really grew up together since childhood.
When she was a child, Rong Jiangsheng was good-looking, and Rong Zhen was the first female general since the founding of the country, no one in the capital clan dared to provoke her, but Cheng Yi was the thorn in the head, and the two of them beat each other. Rong Jiang is a girl in the end, basically she has to be beaten eight times out of ten, but she is stubborn, she never goes home to complain when she loses, and over time Cheng Yi no longer fights with her, but protects her very much.
Rong Jiang still remembers her birthday when she was eight years old, when Rong Zhen had been dead for four years - I don't know whose little fat man it was, mocked her with a 'motherless child', told Cheng Yi to chase and beat her fatter, and also alarmed the elders - Cheng's family was very harsh, punishing Cheng Yi to kneel in the ancestral hall for three days. Since then, Rong Jiang and Cheng Yi's relationship has been better.
When the two of them grew up, Rong Jiang inherited her mother's knighthood and was sent into the barracks by Rong Yu, Cheng Yi begged in front of Mrs. Cheng to send him to the barracks.
Rong Jiang is seventeen this year, and she has known Cheng Yi since she can remember, and in the past seventeen years, she has relied on Cheng Yi more and treated him as a family member, so Zhao Liang said that Cheng Yi might be in danger, and she was anxious - her thoughts were suddenly interrupted, she turned her head to look at Zhao Liang who was laughing, and her brows were twisted together for a while.
"After returning to Beijing, Wei Ming will say that he killed the Zhizhou Mansion, and hurried all the way to the barracks to move troops to save people," he lost a sentence, and saw that Rong Jiang's brows were not relaxed, so he added, "Wei Ming has kung fu, and His Majesty will not believe it." β
Rong Jiang's face turned a little pale, she thought for a while and asked, "Then the others, what is Your Highness going to do?" β
Zhao Liang knew that she was asking Qin Zhi, and he was not in a hurry to reply to her, so he asked her with a smile: "What do you think?" β
"It's impossible not to go back, but if you say it too seriously, it will inevitably hurt His Royal Highness the Prince." Rong Jiang paused slightly, and then said, "Anyway, what Jiang Rongzheng gave His Highness is also directly referring to Lord Wu of the Guozijian. Wu Guixiang is the national prince's sacrificial wine, although it is the same product as Qin Zhi, but the amount is very different, and he pushes the responsibility on him, saying that he colluded with Qin Zhi in private to buy and release exam questions, so that Cao Bin and the prince will no longer be involved, right? She thought seriously about it again, "Your Highness is the crown prince after all, if you have this scapegoat, Your Majesty should not embarrass him." β
Zhao Liang hummed noncommittally, he didn't speak for a long time, Rong Jiang was about to ask him if it was feasible, but he shook his head and said: "Before entering Yecheng, I will instruct the prince, this matter, just return to Your Majesty as you said." β

This was the evening of the first day before entering Yecheng, and it was already dark, so Zhao Liang ordered to stop and rest, and asked Wei Ming to call Zhao Yan to his car.
When Zhao Yan got into the car, he only saw Rong Jiang still sitting next to him, frowned almost invisibly, and immediately stretched out to salute Zhao Liang, and chose a place to sit down, and after receiving Rong Jiang's salute, he waved her hand and told her to continue sitting, and did not speak, just waiting for Zhao Liang to talk to him.
Zhao Liang saw that his rules were as good, and he couldn't help but feel a pity in his heart, and he was a little more dissatisfied with Queen Cao, only feeling that a good child like Zhao Yan was all ruined by the queen's doting, he sighed and said to Zhao Yan: "I'm going to enter the city in a while, and I will accompany you to the palace to face the saint, and I have to tell you about something." β
Zhao Yanjaw should be first, and then said: "You say, I listen." β
"The first case is the case of Jiangbei, I have evidence in my hand, Qin Zhi is also involved, and he colluded with Wu Guixiang to buy and release exam questions, his son is the first in the second class, I will tell him truthfully about this matter, you also know," Zhao Liang's voice paused, and went to see Zhao Yan, and sure enough, he saw that his face was slightly pale, and his sideburns were soaked with sweat, so he followed, "Qin Zhi is your uncle's person, I estimate that His Majesty XiΓ will reprimand you a few words, when the time comes, you don't refute, and don't excuse yourself, naturally I and Ronghou will say something for you, Remember? β
Zhao Yan nodded busily, where did he dare to say a word. Qin Zhi knew who he was, he couldn't know it very well in his heart, the person who Cao Bin picked up was now involved in the corruption and fraud case, and if he didn't get it, he would have to bear the blame.
Rong Jiang on the side listened to Mr. Zhao's words but only frowned, and didn't say anything after all. Just listen to Zhao Liang continue: "Second, you have to remember that we didn't see Chengyi in Dingxian, and when we came back, he didn't send us out of Jiangbei. It's just that when the **** and the Marquis Rong went to Xie Mansion, you rested in the inn because of the water and soil, and later General Cheng led his troops to rescue the two of us and send us back to the inn. Got it? β
Zhao Yan is not a stupid boy who doesn't know about state affairs, as soon as he heard this, he understood what Zhao Yan meant, so he subconsciously went to look at Rong Jiang, and smiled on his lips, but he didn't say anything, just remembered it in his heart.
After that, Zhao Liang instructed him a few innocuous words, then let him go back to his car, and then supported Wei Ming to order him to set off, and the group rushed into the city at night.
Before Zhao Yan left, Rong Jiang smiled and joked to Zhao Liang: "Why did Your Highness scare the prince?" Where is the use of us in front of His Majesty to say something for him, as long as this matter is just right, he could have stayed out of it. β
"You don't understand," Zhao Liang shook his head and looked at her, "The prince is too inexperienced, he must always make him feel the existence of the crisis, so that he will not be so comfortable." β
After that, the two of them didn't say much, each recuperating their spirits, and just waiting for the Qingfeng Hall to deal with the Son of Heaven.
Ke Rao is as smart as Zhao Liang, and at this time, he would never have imagined that the prince and the Cao family would usher in the first turmoil of the Tai'an Dynasty after he stepped into the Qingfeng Palace to present Zhao Heng Jiangbei case.
