Chapter 318: Tokens
318
A mediocre-looking man walked towards them, and he made a gesture, "Subordinate Lin Yang, if the princess wants to know something, the subordinate must know everything." ”
Chu Yueqing took Mo Lian to the main house, and there was a panel in the room, and there was a picture staring at the panel. The mountains and rivers clearly visible on it, the county Yazhou Mansion, made her stunned.
Great rivers and mountains.
She was amazed, but her eyes didn't stop on the map, she just glanced at it, and sat down at a long table, "Did you fight those people last night?" ”
Lin Yang looked slightly surprised, "Princess, how did you know about this matter?"
Although Lin Yang thought so, he hesitated for a moment, and still didn't say anything in the end. Chu Yueqing knew the meaning of his words, his fingers tapped lightly on the long table, and he said after a while: "Steward Zhang fainted, presumably you must have fought with each other last night, didn't you?" By the way, have all the people in black who were captured in the book quarantine been rescued? ”
She didn't tell the truth, after all, the person in front of her was not enough for her to trust.
Lin Yang felt that the princess's explanation was very reasonable, and immediately said: "Thanks to Steward Zhang's clever calculation, those people are still locked up in various rooms. ”
"Still closed?" As soon as these words came out, Chu Yueqing was slightly surprised in her heart, she checked them one by one yesterday, and every room was empty?
"Yes," Lin Yang smiled very smugly, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth, and then he continued: "If the princess sees them, her subordinates will lead you to meet them." As he spoke, he turned sideways again, pointed to a wooden screen across from them, and said, "It's right behind there." ”
Mo Lian couldn't help frowning, and her tone was quite displeased: "Isn't there a couch behind the screen?" "What does this guy think, is he trying to be disrespectful to the princess?
However, Lin Yang didn't seem to understand the meaning of Mo Lian's words, and continued: "Those people are locked in the small cubicle behind the bed, and they happen to be blocked by the bed, and their subordinates have just sent someone to take a look, and there are not many people inside. ”
Chu Yueqing was silent for a moment, as if she was thinking about whether she should see her, but after thinking about it, she simply didn't have anyone she wanted to see, so she said: "That's it, when Steward Zhang wakes up, this matter will be handed over to him." ”
After saying that, he stood up and took Mo Lian back to Zhuxin Courtyard.
Lin Yang stood behind, a little unsure of what the master was thinking, so he scratched his head and simply didn't want to.
……
After another half an hour, Steward Zhang finally woke up leisurely, but as soon as he woke up, he didn't care about anything else, and asked Lin Yang a few people about the black-clothed people who were imprisoned. Knowing that these people were still staying in the rooms, Steward Zhang breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he did not rest, and then ordered people to go to the mass grave to look for people, "I am anxious to be a young child, and his stature is not very high, the people who went to the mass grave yesterday have returned, but he is missing, you go to the vicinity of the mass grave to search, see if you can find it." ”
Although a small guy is not important, but it is a human life, and he sent it to lure the enemy, and Steward Zhang has the mentality of "dealing with the aftermath" and let people find it.
This search made him know a big thing.
The guards who went out to look for him found him by the mass grave, and when he was still unconscious, they probed him to sniff, and when they saw that he was not dead, they carried him back, but found a token under him.
The token was handed over to Steward Zhang.
Steward Zhang flipped over and over with the token, and his eyebrows were gloomy.
It's going to be hard!
After pacing in the house for a long time, Steward Zhang went to Zhuxinyuan in the afternoon to look for the princess.
As soon as he entered the door, Steward Zhang said that he had to report it.
For such a long time, it was the first time for Chu Yueqing to see such a nervous look on Steward Zhang's face, so he felt that this matter was not small, so he withdrew from the people, leaving Mo Lian alone to wait in the house.
Steward Zhang looked at Mo Lian, his face was embarrassed, the meaning was so obvious that Mo Lian couldn't hear it.
Chu Yueqing couldn't help but be surprised, what would make Manager Zhang so cautious? But even so, she couldn't send Mo Lian out, thought about it, and said, "Mo Lian is waiting outside, Manager Zhang, you can go into the small study with me." ”
This is the most appropriate way, Chu Yueqing has to admit that the identity of a woman will still have a lot of inconvenience in many things. Steward Zhang wiped the sweat on his forehead, and he had no choice but to respond.
After entering the small study, Steward Zhang handed over the token to her.
She took it, rubbed it in her hand, and her face was slightly condensed: "Dong? What does this mean? ”
It should be a mark worn by a certain family for secret guards or guards, but she carefully went through all the nobles in the capital in her mind, but she did not find a family surnamed Dong. can look at the meaning of Steward Zhang, the word "Dong" has a lot of origin.
Steward Zhang's face was solemn, and he didn't care about the choice of words at this time, so he only said in a low voice: "Today's queen mother's surname is 'Dong'!" This token engraved with the word 'Dong' should have disappeared more than 20 years ago. ”
Hearing this, Chu Yueqing was slightly shocked, and things that seemed to be unbeatable gradually converged in her mind, and the slightest bit of it was finally connected into a line.
She raised her face to look at Steward Zhang, her eyes becoming more and more calm, "Tell me about this in detail." ”
Steward Zhang looked at the princess's expression, and remembered what the prince had told him before leaving Beijing: No matter what happens in the capital or the palace, you must tell the princess about the matter, and the princess will decide.
Originally, Steward Zhang still had a lot of complaints, what they wanted to do was not something that a woman could understand the princess, and if they couldn't understand it, how could they help make a decision?
But at this time, looking at the quiet color and steady bearing of the woman in front of him, Steward Zhang had slowly trusted Chu Yueqing unconsciously, and when he encountered something, he didn't even think about it and came directly to Zhuxin Courtyard to report to her.
Steward Zhang thought about it for a while, and then he was slightly surprised. When did he really regard the princess as his master?
This thought passed by, and Steward Zhang was surprised in his eyes, and slowly, in detail, told Chu Yueqing about the affairs of the Dong family in the past.
The queen's surname is Dong, which is no secret. It's just that the Dong family has been destroyed for a long time, and the queen's position is so high, no one dares to call her by her name on weekdays. She was young, so she didn't know anything about it.
Thirty years ago, the current queen mother is just a talented girl, the ancestor of the Dong family is the founder of the country, the world is timed, the ancestor emperor named the ancestor of the Dong family as Dong Guogong, and when it comes to the queen mother, the children of the Dong family have been entrenched in the court, and the father of the queen is the son of the saint today.
Because of this relationship, it was natural for the queen mother to marry the emperor, who was still the crown prince at the time.
