Chapter 389: The Imperial City Takes the Throne 43

The high priest's eyes are blue, that is the color of the sky, every time he looks at his eyes, he always thinks of the vast sky, and then he loves the house and Wu, and he will subconsciously raise the person's style a few points.

Luo Jia generally does not deal with the high priest, because this person is full of the breath of a god stick from the inside out, if you are not careful, you may be taken into the ditch by him, and it is willing!

However, apart from the jade seal, he couldn't think of anything as important as it for a while.

The high priest smiled with an unclear smile on the corner of his lips, and said flatly: "In addition to the jade seal, the most important thing is naturally the inheritance. ”

"Inheritance?" When Luo Jia heard this, he frowned, and he looked at the high priest hesitantly, trying to tell the truth from his face, but it was obviously impossible.

There was no way, he had to shift his gaze to Qiu Yue again, wanting to see if he saw anything, Qiu Yue shook his head, indicating that the high priest was not lying now, and at this moment, even Luo Jia was confused.

Inheritance, this thing is important and important, not important, really unimportant, he thought about it roughly, among the current princes and princesses, there are more than a dozen of them who have the right of inheritance, although they have the right of inheritance, they have a bargaining chip to compete for the throne, however, it is just one of the chips, in the battle for succession, inheritance has never been the key thing they care about.

Because, those who can ascend to the throne must have the right of inheritance, but it is not the right to inherit, there are bargaining chips for the heir, troops, grain and grass, and backup, which are all indispensable.

And among these things, inheritance is really the most inconspicuous. But now the high priest told him. The right of inheritance is as important as the jade seal, how can he accept it?

As soon as the high priest saw Luo Jia is expression, he knew that he was skeptical of his words, but it was no wonder that how could these people, who were born with the right to inherit the throne and were still in a high position, understand the feelings of those who are princes and princesses, but do not even have the right to inherit the throne, so he understands it very well now.

The high priest exhaled. He asked with a smile: "The prince seems to be suspicious. You might as well say it all. ”

Luo Jia's eyes locked on his body, as if he was going to eat him alive, and said, "Why do you think so, high priest?" Is inheritance the key in this battle? ”

"Huh...... Would think so. Naturally, I have a point. The High Priest smiled. He said generally, paused again, and then looked around. Stick your gaze to a chair and don't move.

Luo Jia's gaze also followed the high priest's line of sight, and saw that he had been staring at a chair, his brows furrowed slightly, and then he commanded the subordinates outside, "Come, give the high priest a seat." ”

Soon, the servant brought a chair and asked the high priest to sit down, and when everything was done, the high priest still didn't say anything, but just coughed, touched his neck with his hand, his expression was a little strange, and his eyes fell on the teapot on Luo Jia's desk.

This time, Qiu Yue stepped forward, picked up the teapot, and saw that the tea was a little cold, so he walked to the front of the house, and ordered someone to change a new pot of tea, make tea for the high priest, and then handed him the teatea, "High priest, please." ”

With a warm smile on his face, the high priest said, "How do you know that this priest is thirsty?" Thanks a lot. ”

As he spoke, he drank all the tea, almost blistering his tongue, the high priest's face suddenly became very strange, Qiu Yue saw this, the corners of his lips turned up slightly, and he couldn't help but smile, and said, "High priest, are you still thirsty?" Would you like another drink? ”

The High Priest put up a reluctant smile, stiffened his neck and nodded, then shook his head again, "I have a heart, I don't need it now." ”

Qiu Yue sneered, took the high priest's cup, lightly placed it in the tea tray, and then turned behind Luo Jia and stood with his hands in his hands.

Luo Jia looked at the high priest with a smile and asked, "High priest, you have sat and drunk, can you talk about business?" ”

The high priest's tongue was hot and painful, it was really impossible to steal chickens and rice, he laughed dryly, and said: "The prince thinks that Princess Pingning is not a threat, because she has neither the support of the family behind her, nor does she hold the military power in her hands, is this so?" ”

Luo Jia raised his eyebrows, but did not refute, isn't it because of this?

But the high priest shook his head and said, "How can the prince see that Princess Pingning has no support from the family?" Could it be that in your eyes, the Wei family is just an ornament? In this battle, they haven't said a word. ”

"Then the high priest wants to say that Ping Ning has a secret connection with the Wei family?" Luo Jia banged on the table in disapproval.

The high priest nodded, "After all, Princess Pingning is still the wife of Wei Qingxian, the son of the Wei family, and it's not a big deal that they have dealings, right?" Nor can it be said to be a secret connection. ”

Luo Jia raised his eyebrows and said, "But does the high priest know?" The Wei family bit Ping Ning to death as the murderer of Wei Qingxian, although there is no evidence, they still hate her to the core, so how can they support Ping Ning to the throne? ”

So you're still a little too tender~ The high priest looked at Luo Jia, chuckled, and in his words, he was like a knowledgeable elder who had not grown up in educating a disciple, and said: "Prince, do you know that in this world, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests, for the sake of the Wei family's prosperity, how could the Wei family patriarch give up such a great opportunity?" ”

Luo Jiayi was speechless.

The high priest said: "Now the three major families in the imperial city, the Du family, the Lu family, the Wei family, and the Du family are the prince's people, and the Lu family supports Princess Zhen Ning, and the rest of the Wei family, if they want to protect themselves in this battle for succession, they naturally have to find a backer." ”

As soon as these words came out, Luo Jia sneered: "Do you think the Wei family will use a powerless and powerless Pingning as a backer?" The puppet is pretty much the same. ”

However, as soon as Luo Jia said this, even he was stunned, and the expression on his face suddenly became very exciting, and he saw that the high priest showed a relieved expression, frowned, and hesitated: "Could it be ......?" ”

"That's right, isn't what the Wei family wants is the empress who can become a puppet? When the time comes, the Du family and the Lu family will be eradicated in one fell swoop, and his Wei family will be the dominant family and control the overall situation of the government, wouldn't it be beautiful? With the high priest's impassioned words, Luo Jia's face became darker and darker, and in the end, he stood up directly and slapped the table, "What a fool! ”

"Huh?" The high priest was stunned for a moment, and a triumphant smile crossed his blue eyes, but he inadvertently saw that Qiu Yue's gaze had been glued to his body, making his entire body seem to be overpowered.

The high priest's mouth twitched, thinking to himself how he had forgotten this little girl? But those eyes are really beautiful~ No matter how many times I look at them, I feel pleasing to the eye, and these eyes can always look at themselves, which is actually quite good.

The high priest knew that Qiu Yue was staring at him at the moment, in case he was lying, as if his left eye was distinguishing between truth and falsehood, if he lied, his left eye would sting, this setting was really bad, why did his eyes hurt when he told a lie? Qiu Yue uses his eyes frequently, and if the other party keeps lying, isn't he going to be hurt to death?

Even for the sake of those beautiful eyes, he couldn't let him find out that he was lying!

"Hehe, the prince believes it now?" The High Priest asked with a smile on his face.

Luo Jia glanced at him, frowned, and asked, "The high priest is not the person of his father, is it okay to tell me such an important matter?" Even if you want to say it, you should tell Zhen Ning and the gang, right? ”

The sudden visit of the high priest made Luo Jia very suspicious, this person has always been in the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and now he suddenly gave him such a big gift, which will only make Luo Jia feel that he has nothing to do and is either a traitor or a thief!

The high priest waved his hand a little innocently and said, "How can the prince doubt me? I'm so kind~"

Luo Jia sneered and asked again, "Then did the high priest tell Zhen Ning the news about it?" ”

The high priest pressed his right hand on his heart, put on a decent face that usually purifies all beings, and said, "I swear to the gods, this priest only told the crown prince about this matter, and Princess Zhen Ning definitely didn't get any news from me!" ”

Luo Jia didn't bother to look at him, he turned his head and glanced at Qiu Yue, who shook his head, indicating that this person was not lying.

The high priest laughed secretly, he didn't lie in the first place, because he didn't have the news of the princess in person at all~

Young people are really easy to fool, and a little word play can make them go around, which is really funny.

"Is your high priest a confession to us?" Luo Jia asked again, he was not easy to fool, the high priest had not yet explained why he told him such an important matter, he could not give up!

The high priest smiled and said, "This priest is not a surrender, you royal people compete for the throne, and it has nothing to do with the temple." ”

Luo Jia frowned, "Then what is your purpose?" Why help us? Or, what do you want? ”

"Haha......." The high priest laughed, his gaze fell on Qiu Yue, looking her up and down.

Qiu Yue was uncomfortable with him, and Luo Jia also had an ominous premonition in his heart, he subconsciously moved his body and blocked in front of Qiu Yue, isolating the unconcealed naked-naked-naked gaze of the high priest.

The high priest retracted his gaze regretfully, then stretched out his hand and pointed at Qiu Yue behind Luo Jia, and said with a smile: "This priest sold such important information to the prince, of course, he also has to repay it, why don't the prince lend Qiu Yue to me for a few days, how about it?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the teacup on the table finally died gloriously in Luo Jia's rage, the teacup was shattered into countless scum, and he lay on the desk miserably, and the tea splashed all over the table, like tears of sadness.

And Luo Jia, his face was so gloomy that he was about to drip water. (To be continued.) )
