Chapter Seventy-Eight. A little bit of the secret of the Taiping Palace.

The Jade Rakshasa followed Gong Jiu to his study.

"This is the most famous refreshment in Shengjing's Hefangzhai, the Jade Sect Master has worked hard all the way, why not taste some?" Gong Jiu poured a cup of tea for the Jade Rakshasa, and the maidservant lightly served exquisite refreshments.

The chef of the prince of Pingnan naturally doesn't even know how to make refreshments, and the reason why he uses Hefangzhai's dim sum to entertain the Jade Rakshasa is a little careful thinking of Gong Jiu. The relationship between Hefangzhai and Ximen Blowing Snow may not be known to others, but Gong Jiu still noticed some clues.

The Jade Rakshasa raised his eyes and glanced at Gong Jiu, and then picked up a piece of hibiscus jade cake and took a bite as usual. Jade Rakshasa and Gong Jiu both knew that they were holding each other's handles. And the reason why this handle is a handle is because whether it is the Jade Rakshasa or Gong Jiu, they are not ruthless people after all.

"You've done me a favor, and I'll pay you back."

Eating all the hibiscus jade cake in his hand, the jade rakshasa took a sip of the tea in his hand. He stared at Gong Jiu with a pair of deep eyes, and a sarcastic smile rose on his lips: "It's just that using Hibiscus Biluo to deal with me is a little bit out of the flow." ”

The hibiscus jade cake from Hefangzhai on that side is soft and glutinous, but as soon as the jade rakshasa is eaten, it tastes a little bitter. Hefangzhai was created by him for Ximen Blowing Snow's mother, and every dessert in it, Ximen Blowing Snow's mother made it for the Jade Rakshasa with her own hands. Although the Si people have passed away, but that kind of taste, the Jade Rakshasa can never forget it.

The Jade Rakshasa has been crisscrossing the Western Regions for more than 30 years, and there are countless assassinations and poisons encountered. If you don't know anything about poison and Gu, Jade Rakshasa doesn't know how many times she has died. As soon as the hibiscus jade cake was put into its mouth, the jade rakshasa knew that it was hibiscus. Pick up the tea and taste it, and the tea in the cup is really Huangshan Biluo.

Hibiscus itself is not a toxin, because of its rich smell, it is mostly used in women's rouge. However, once the hibiscus is taken with the Biluo tea produced in Huangshan, it will immediately turn into a highly toxic poison.

Poisoning tea and food is indeed a little less popular. Gong Jiu did this only because he was not sure that he could defeat the Jade Rakshasa by force, but the matter was too big to control the unstable factor of the Jade Rakshasa that he would never be able to feel at ease.

Seeing that he was recognized by the Jade Rakshasa, Gong Jiu just wanted to open his mouth to argue, but he saw the Jade Rakshasa turn his hand and slam it into Gong Jiu's chest.

Gong Jiu flew out more than ten steps away in an instant, his throat was fishy, and a trace of blood appeared on Gong Jiu's lips. However, he swallowed this mouthful of hot blood, stroked his chest and gasped for a while, and he actually stood up with a smile.

"The juniors are rude, and the jade seniors forgive me." Gong Jiu arched his hand to the Jade Rakshasa as if Fang Cai's poison was just a junior who didn't know how to take proportion.

After receiving his own palm, he was still able to stand up. Jade Rakshasa raised his eyebrows in some surprise and looked Gong Jiu up and down again.

Gong Jiu was still smiling and looking at Ren Yu Rakshasa, if it weren't for the strange aroma of the pastries and tea on the table, and there were also a little red marks on Gong Jiu's white clothes, almost no one would be able to detect what had happened to these two people.

After a while, the Jade Rakshasa withdrew his gaze. He slowly drank the tea in the cup, and then said: "It's just a small country in Qiuzi, and this seat should be down." ”

This time, Gong Jiu's smile was finally more sincere, and he bowed his head to the Jade Rakshasa again, and said solemnly: "Thank you, Sect Master." ”

The Jade Rakshasa snorted coldly, and his figure dissipated suddenly, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Gong Jiu was not annoyed, he sat back at his sandalwood table, and suddenly smiled—it was the smile after finally unloading the heavy burden in his heart, and it was a relaxed smile that Gong Jiu had not had for more than ten years.

Seventeen years ago, Gong Jiu was a child less than four years old.

It was also an extremely ordinary spring day in the Taiping Palace, he slept through the afternoon nap, and while the nurse was not paying attention, he sneaked to the study to find his father. At that time, for the four-year-old Gong Jiu, no, maybe it should be said that Jun Jianming, his father was the most powerful person in the world, and there was no one who made him worship more than his father.

But when Jun Jianming opened the door of his father's study, he saw a scene that almost frightened him. He saw his father holding a sword, and his mother was about to pounce on it!

Even if he is a genius and born precocious, Jun Jianming is still a four-year-old child after all. Seeing such a terrifying scene, he instinctively screamed.

Such an exclamation made King Taiping turn back slightly, and the sword that was supposed to pierce Princess Taiping's heart was also deflected, and only fell into Princess Taiping's shoulder.

Later, in fact, Gong Jiu couldn't remember it clearly, he only remembered that the old man of his family was almost crying out of sight, and his mother was stabbed with a sword, but he seemed calmer than the old man. The Taiping King stabbed the Taiping Princess, and as soon as this incident came out, the Taiping Palace's palace was in chaos almost immediately.

Gong Jiu only remembered that he was picked up by his mother, and finally he was hugged into a soft and fragrant embrace.

"Good boy, don't be afraid, grandmother is here, your mother will be fine soon."

There has always been a voice in his ears comforting him softly, Gong Jiu opened his eyes hard, but he felt that his eyelids were extremely heavy, and under the soothing of the warm hands behind him, he finally fell asleep groggily. And that person didn't lie to him, when he woke up, the Taiping Mansion was still the Taiping Palace, and the Taiping Princess was still a good Taiping Princess.

It wasn't until Gong Jiu was sent to the palace to study with the prince's children that his grandfather, Emperor Mingde Shenwu, explained to him what happened that day.

On that day, King Taiping accidentally broke his princess's biggest secret. It turned out that his princess was not an orphan girl, but the eldest princess of the country of Qiuzi. And she deliberately mixed up with herself, but it was for the sake of going undercover for Da'an, and she was always aware of Da'an's troop movements to the country of Qiuzi.

The country of Qiuzi is just a small country in the Western Regions, if there is anything special about it, it is probably that it is rich in gems and beautiful women. The old king of Qiuci had more than 30 sons, and they fought for the throne for many years, so that the current king of Qiuci finally defeated his brother, but because of the decline of the country, he had to surrender to Da'an.

The king of Qiuzi was not willing to pay such a large number of gems to Da'an every year, so he sent his daughter to go undercover for Da'an, and once he found out that Da'an was lax in the Western Regions, he announced his departure from Da'an.

As the eldest princess, Gong Jiu's mother-in-law felt that her father's idea was too simple, but she also had to take three or two people and go to the Central Plains alone—otherwise, her father would marry her to the eighty-year-old king of the neighboring country as the successor queen.

Later, after some careful planning, the eldest princess of Qiuzi Kingdom became the princess of Taiping and gave birth to a smart and lovely son for him.

But at this time, her biggest secret was discovered by the Taiping King. Marrying an orphan girl in a foreign land has already made the Taiping King criticized in the court and the opposition, if it is found that he is not an orphan girl, but a real princess of a neighboring country - even if that country has been subordinated to Da'an, what Emperor Shenwu will do with the Taiping King, the Taiping Princess does not dare to bet.

At that time, the princess had a deep love for King Taiping, and after some struggle, Princess Taiping chose to commit suicide. She talked calmly with the King of Taiping, only hoping that he could arrange for her to "die of illness", and she didn't ask him to keep his son's position as the son, she just asked him to let his son grow up safely.

So, there was the scene that Gong Jiu witnessed.

King Taiping loves Princess Taiping very much, although he is not a person who is in love, only knows the wind and the moon, and does not care about the overall situation, but he stabbed his beloved with his own hands, not to mention that person is the mother of his own child, and King Taiping is still a little overwhelmed.

Just when the prince of Taiping screamed, the Taiping King was stunned, and the Taiping princess was seriously injured and fell to the ground, Emperor Shenwu came with Concubine Yi. Concubine Yi picked up the prince of the Taiping Wang, who was screaming so much that he almost fainted, to the side hall to coax him carefully, while Emperor Shenwu dealt with the chaos in the Taiping Palace.

The iron-blooded emperor did not hesitate to clean the entire Taiping Palace, and solved the two or three people brought by the Taiping Princess. After that, he sighed and called his son to the study.

Love is deep, and no one is not bitter. If it was in the early years, Emperor Shenwu would definitely let his son solve the princess. But when he also had cherished people around him, he couldn't bear to give such cruel orders.

After hesitating for a long time, Emperor Shenwu left Princess Taiping's life, but from then on, Princess Taiping could only "hold onto illness" to recuperate in the mansion. As for Gong Jiu, who was mixed with foreign blood, Emperor Shenwu had the same attitude as before. First, he himself loved this intelligent grandchild very much, and he also accepted the fact that his "blood is not pure" early on. Second, Emperor Shenwu is not a rigid person, and the theory of bloodline is just ridiculous in his opinion, not to mention that the child is innocent after all, because he is disgusted with this kind of thing of a junior, and he can't do it.

The goddess engraved by Gong Jiu on the fake Rakshasa card that day was actually not Jun Xuan, but Jun Xuan's mother concubine. The tenderness that the woman gave him in his most difficult time, Gong Jiu will never forget in his life.

In Gong Jiu's young heart, except for his mother, Grandmother Yi is the best and best woman in the world.

Because his mother and grandmother were too good, Gong Jiu felt that the Jun family who had lost them was particularly hateful. It is precisely because of this that he is reluctant to use the surname "Jun", and even reluctant to mention the name "Jun Jianming".

Over the years, the country of Qiuzi has been like a cancer. If this cancer is not removed for a day, Gong Jiu will feel that his mother and even the old man of his family will not be safe for a day. After all, the events of the day were forcibly suppressed by Gong Jiu's grandfather, and now that his grandfather has passed away, if his mother's affairs are turned over one day, even if Jun Jianyu's kid has the heart to protect him, I am afraid it will be difficult to be good.

It's a pity that the entire Western Regions is now the territory of the Jade Rakshasa , even if he can insert people into it, but he can't subvert a country.

Therefore, there is a layout that he painstakingly isolated.

Fortunately, the Jade Rakshasa is not a person who breaks his word and becomes fat. However, in just ten days, the people sent by Gong Jiu to the Western Regions went back and forth to say that Qiuzi had been destroyed.

Playing with the gems that came with this news, Gong Jiu finally smiled.

Here Gong Jiu has solved the big problem in his heart, and is about to set off to return to his nameless island in the South China Sea. But even though the ninth prince is resourceful, he can't calculate, and now his island is in turmoil. One person and one sword are destroyed, as if they are going to destroy Gong Jiu's more than ten years of operation!
