When Zheng Yong entered the Qingfeng Palace, Zhao Heng seemed to be in a good mood, and the table was spread out with a piece of Zhang Xu's wild grass authenticity, and when he saw Zheng Yong entering the hall, he waved his hand and asked him to come closer: "Zheng Qing is good at calligraphy, and I will appreciate this character together." ”

Naturally, he didn't step forward, his face was a little anxious, and he knelt down after thinking for a moment.

As soon as Zhao Heng saw him like this, he immediately lost any good mood, stared at him with a dark face for a while, and asked him coldly, "What is this?" Now that I've even rewarded a note, are you going to bother? ”

Zheng Yong's heart sank uncontrollably, and his cognition of the Son of Heaven's intention to intercept and kill the British King became a little heavier. His hands were slightly closed, he arched up, leaned down and bowed: "Your Majesty, please accept your majesty." Wei Ming, a close attendant of the British king, entered Yecheng this morning, and found the minister's mansion because he replied to the cabinet to no avail, "He explained first, then raised his head to meet Zhao Heng's gaze, and clearly saw a trace of displeasure and dodging in the eyes of the Son of Heaven, and his eyes narrowed, "The prince and the king of England were attacked in Dingxian, and more than 100 people were damaged by the three hundred guards. ”

Zhao Heng stared at him for a long time, but he didn't want him to suddenly raise his head to meet his gaze, and he was a little dodging for a while, he expected that with Zheng Yong's wisdom, he could probably guess the beginning and end of this matter, so he was a little speechless.

He is the Son of Heaven, but he even sent someone to secretly intercept and kill his uncle, and among this group of people is his own son - he holds the throne of the East Palace Prince in one hand. coughed lightly at the moment, and looked angry: "How can this be true!" The British king led the emperor's order to Jiangbei, did anyone dare to commit a black hand on the way! Zheng Qing, inform the military department and order them to send people"

Before he could finish what to say, Zheng Yong had already kowtowed again and interrupted him: "The King of England asks for an order, please appoint the Marquis of Guning to Jiangbei," he knew how embarrassed Zhao Heng should be at this time, but he couldn't tear his face, Fang continued, "The minister seconded His Highness's request." In terms of the use of troops and martial arts, no one can compare with the Marquis of Guning, and she has been in Jiangbei for many years and is familiar with the situation in Jiangbei. ”

As soon as his voice fell, Zhao Heng already figured out what was going on. No wonder before leaving, the crown prince would suddenly ask Rong Jiang to accompany him, and his eyes were almost bloodthirsty scarlet. He still remembered that the queen advised him to endure for a while, and he needed to take care of the reputation behind the Rong family, but what did the Rong family do? From Rong Jiang's return to Beijing, to today's invitation from Zheng Yongdai to the King of England, all of them are their subordinates who should be loyal to the country and the monarch, and they have joined hands to calculate him. What is this? Don't you really dare to kill him!

"Zheng Ge thinks that the Marquis of Guning should return to Jiangbei?" Zhao Heng's voice was cold, and even Wei Jin, who was looking down on the side, didn't dare to come out.

"The minister thinks that the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the most important." Zheng Yong avoided mentioning whether Rong Jiang should return to Jiangbei, but instead threw out Zhao Yan's safety.

Rong Jiang will never be able to return to Jiangbei, although he knows that the Rong family will never be disobedient, but from the perspective of the monarch, Rong Jiang's military merits are too heavy, and he has only retreated from Xirong for less than half a year, at this time it is most appropriate to detain her in Yecheng, if there is another war on the border in three or five years, it will be inappropriate to let her go back to command the three armies, this is the imperial power technique. But the safety of the prince is even more related to the foundation of the country, and in contrast, Zhao Hengzong is unwilling to let Rong Jiang go back, and has to let her go back.

Zheng Yong couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Zhao Heng has always been very deep in the city, the first emperor is virtuous, and he never has such a deep scheming, but Zhao Heng is a skilled person and has no virtue in governing the country. If he hadn't been too eager to get rid of the king of England this time, and didn't want the prince to stay in the capital and have close contacts with the Rong family, he would not have let the prince go with the king.

Zhao Heng didn't agree to Zheng Yong's invitation in the end, and casually perfunctory him, only saying that he would think about it carefully, and sent him out of the palace.

And this result was expected by Zheng Yong. From Zhao Heng's point of view, the prince's safety and his jealousy are probably not enough to compare.

He left the palace in a hurry but did not return to the Zheng Mansion, but instead instructed the palanquin man to divert to the Qian Mansion. At that time, Qian Zhizheng accompanied his wife to play chess, and when he heard the head manager return to Zheng Yong, he smiled and called for a later battle after the chess game, so he went to see him in the middle hall.

Qian Zhi is now at home, and there is nothing to do in the town, but Zheng Yong, as the first auxiliary minister, is busy with daily affairs, and there is not much to walk around the Qian family. Therefore, as soon as Qian Zhi saw him, he dragged him with a smile, and said a few more words: "It's hard to have time for me to fight a game of chess with you now, Zheng Daren is too pressed, how can I have time to come to my door today." ”

How did Zheng Yong not joke with him, he was strict, sent the minions to withdraw, and then said directly with Qian: "What you said that day was fulfilled one by one." I have just come out of the palace on behalf of the King of England. ”

Qian Zhi's smile immediately froze on his face, his eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and he paced back and forth to think deeply, Zheng Yong didn't bother him, and listened to him speak in a moment: "In this way, Siniang is going to Dingjiangbei this time." But he changed the conversation and asked him, "You came to me when you left the palace, I think your majesty didn't allow you to invite you." ”

Zheng Yong nodded, sat down on the Taishi chair, leaned back on the back of the chair, and didn't look at Qian Zhi, but sighed: "The longer I am in the court, the more disappointed I become, I even carried out the safety of the prince, but His Majesty was unmoved." I'm really afraid that he won't be able to cure Siniang in the future, and the king of England-"

He didn't have to say anything later, Qian Zhi naturally understood, he didn't answer, the room was silent for a while, or Qian Zhi spoke first: "You can't go to ask for this matter anymore, like this," he paused to look at Zheng Yong, "You quietly let people go to Rong's mansion and tell Old Man Rong about this matter, and he will naturally send someone to tell Sister Yuan." ”

"Sister Yuan knows, she is bound to enter the palace and return to the middle palace, and at that time, the middle palace will naturally invite His Majesty to play the king, and let Siniang take people to Jiangbei." Zheng Yong had a smile on his face, stretched out his hand to point at Qian Zhi, and scolded with a smile, "Old fox." ”

Later, according to what he said, he sent his henchmen to Rongfu quietly to inform Rong Yu of the matter, not wanting outsiders to know, and making trouble to Zhao Heng.

At dinner that day, Rong Yuan handed over the sign to the palace to ask for peace, but knelt in the Kunning Hall with a solemn expression, and waited for Queen Cao to ask about what grievances she had suffered, she cried and told Zhao Yan about the attack in Dingxian one by one, and muttered again: "I know that this is a matter of the DPRK and China, and I shouldn't say much, but my heart is really uneasy, if His Royal Highness has anything, if His Royal Highness has something, His Royal Highness will tell him."

"No!" Empress Cao has always been gentle, and she rarely even raises her voice when she speaks, but at the moment she interrupted Rong Yuan's words loudly. Realizing that there was some disrespect, he asked someone to help her up, comforted her carefully, and ordered someone to send her out of the palace. After that, he put on makeup and stepped out of the temple door to the Qingfeng Palace.

Empress Cao has never had to pass it on when she entered the Qingfeng Palace, so when Zhao Heng saw her, he was stunned, and he understood why she came, and his face was a little ugly, so he asked: "Where did the queen hear the news?" ”

She knew that Rong Yuan's entry into the palace must be related to the Rong Mansion, but saving people at this moment was the most important, if she pulled out Rong Yuan, she was afraid that Zhao Heng would not let go of it, and just took the opportunity to suppress the Rong family, she never objected to Zhao Heng doing this, but at this moment, she had to take Zhao Yan's safety as the most important, and replied as soon as she was short: "Zheng Ge Lao looked solemn when he entered the palace today, I just need to send someone to ask him, and I will know." Her Majesty," she choked up a little and knelt in front of Zhao Heng, "In my life, I only have one son, the crown prince, does Your Majesty want me to be old and have nothing to rely on?" ”
