Chapter 454: Murderous Heart
Chang Kang could see it very clearly, and what flashed in Emperor Chongde's eyes was a strong murderous aura. Who did the emperor murder him? Westside, Westside, or someone else?
Chang Kang didn't think much about it, as an inner servant and the leader of the secret guard, he knew very well that he only needed to listen to orders. Whether the murderous aura in the emperor's eyes will become the task he performs, this will soon be known.
He did know it very quickly, because then Emperor Chongde gave an order, and this was really his next task. Moreover, he had a strong premonition that this task would be one of the most difficult tasks for him to complete.
As a result, he didn't know what would happen, but it wouldn't be too early, after the Wuling vein appeared.
Si Tian's young eunuch Sui Yong was summoned to the Zichen Hall at night, which also attracted the attention of many well-intentioned people. What is the emperor summoning the officials of Tiantai for? It's just that Sui Yong's mouth is too tight, and no one can know anything from his mouth.
However, some people, without going through Sui Yong's mouth, can know what Emperor Chongde summoned Sui Yong for, because he has eyes and ears in Yonghe Palace, and he is still a big ear and eye, that is, Qingluo, the maid of the palace.
In Kunning Palace, Xie Zi's attitude was still leisurely. Months of solitary confinement, instead of making her face haggard, made her radiant, and her face moistened as if it would glow.
Pampered, the only thing is to be carefully pampered, and wait until the one-year period of Kunning Palace arrives. This is Xie Zi's whole life, can he not raise it?
When His Highness the black robe saw Xie Zi, his eyes flashed. No wonder, the father would come to Kunning Palace from time to time. Such a beauty is indeed very attractive.
"Your Highness, why is it so quiet today? Isn't something wrong? Bengong has heard that Shen Du is going to leave Jingzhao and go to Wuling. Xie Zi spoke, glancing at His Highness the black robe.
She would ask about the Shen family, or because of the Xie family's guild hall and Qin Ji. The news that Xie Dao found out, of course, was also sent to Kunning Palace. - If she knew that the matter after the death of the demon was related to the Shen family, she would hate it even more.
Being asked by Xie Zi like this, His Highness the Black Robe came back to his senses, and he coughed unnaturally. Only then did he reply: "Don't worry, the queen mother." Shen Du is not in trouble, the emperor has already killed them. It's just that the child thinks about what benefits the child can get from the matter of Wuling. ”
If the veins of the Fog Ridge are alive. That must be a good thing for the dynasty. It's just that. The good deeds of the dynasty did not increase his power. He didn't get any benefit from it, which made people not like it very much.
Hearing these words, Xie Zi frowned unhappily. Said: "Your Highness is still thinking about the matter of Wuling? Isn't His Royal Highness going to accompany the emperor to Jiangnan? If His Royal Highness doesn't follow the emperor on his tour, how can that plan be realized? Your Highness, don't be half-hearted! ”
In Xie Zi's view, the Jiangnan patrol is much more important than the Wuling vein. The Wuling Mountains and forests are vast, and there is Xisheng wrestling with them, so there is really no benefit.
Patrolling Jiangnan is different, if it is used well, it is a matter of golden scales encountering the wind and clouds. Seeing that he wanted to get even the Wuling Mineral Vein, and the people's hearts were not enough to swallow the elephant, Xie Zi remembered this lesson.
"What the queen mother said is that of course the child will follow his father to Jiangnan. The Wuling vein will definitely not affect the Jiangnan plan, please rest assured. His Highness the Black Robe replied immediately.
Although he replied so, he would never let go of such an important matter as the Wuling Ore Vein. Sheng Lie's situation was kept very secret, if he hadn't installed someone in Yonghe Palace, he wouldn't have known that Sheng Lie was leaving the prison.
Heavenly prison, shenglie. Thinking of the person who had come to contact him a few days earlier, His Highness the Black Robe couldn't help but have a hint of interest in his eyes. No wonder, Sheng Xi would be in such a hurry, if Sheng Lie really left Dading Heavenly Prison, I am afraid that Sheng Xi would not be able to sit still.
Xisheng, his father, and the Cheng family are all eyeing the Wuling veins. In this way, he can reap the benefits of the fisherman in the middle. Thinking like this, he wished that Sheng Lie would leave the prison sooner.
These things, he would not say to Xie Zi. No matter how smart and ambitious Xie Zi is, he is only in the harem, and his vision is still too narrow. It's just that now, he still needs Xie Zi, and he also needs her help.
If the whole world were his, anything would be possible......
His Highness in the black robe glanced at Xie Zi, and when he saw her fingers folded and her tail armor fingers gently stroked, he couldn't help but swallow his throat.
At this time, in the Cheng family, Concubine Shu's maiden family, there were also people discussing the matter of Sheng Lie and Wuling veins.
The most proud thing in Cheng Fan's life is that he has cultivated a daughter, Concubine Shu. This daughter gave birth to the crown prince and brought too much blessing to the Cheng family.
This is of course due to the green smoke coming out of the ancestral tomb of the Cheng family, which is also one of the reasons why Cheng Pan is complacent. After all, there are so many girls sent to the palace every year, but there is only one like Concubine Shu.
But at this moment, Cheng Pan did not have any joy. He was thinking about how to stop Shen Du from making meritorious contributions in Wuling. Cheng Pan has already become a scholar, he has been observing the Shen family in the dark for the past few years, and found that Shen Du, a young man, has a mysterious ability.
But whatever Shen Du handles, it will always work out in the end. This is true of the imperial treasury, the division of soldiers, and even the order to withdraw the book. Which of these things is not a major national matter? But he met it!
Sometimes, luck is also a person's strength, but if you are lucky like this three or four times, it will only be real strength, not luck.
Cheng Pan didn't expect that the situation would develop to this point, and he would confront Shen Du on the matter of the Wuling vein. The Wuling vein must not be discovered by Shen Du, and Sheng Lie, after saying the vein, he must die!
"Father, the emperor will definitely send someone to escort Sheng Lie and Shen Du, it's not easy to start." Cheng Guanji said.
He is Cheng Fan's eldest son and the younger brother of Concubine Shu, but he is not a leader, he just takes care of all kinds of chores of the Cheng family, but he is Cheng Fan's most relied on son. -- For a big family, general affairs are the foundation of a family.
"It's okay, let's go to Wuling to find an opportunity. The only thing I'm worried about is the Western Frontier Guard there. Shen Du and Fu Tong's granddaughter are married, Fu Tong will definitely make a move! With the intervention of Xijiangwei, there are more variables in the matter. Cheng Pan said. Cheng Pan wants more than this. He is the same as His Highness the Black Robe, and the Wuling Ore Vein is the most important thing.
How can we get these Fog Ridge veins? Cheng Pan couldn't think of any good ideas for a while, and the father and son were silent, and finally agreed to send more people to Wuling.
Obviously, the emperor also sealed Shen Du and Sheng Lie's mouth, but
Not long after Cheng Pan and Cheng Guanji discussed, a small note wrapped in beeswax was also sent out of Cheng's house and went to Dongcheng Street. (To be continued......)
