Chapter 19: Punishment

A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, tearing apart the night sky above Kyoto, and the white and black were intertwined, and it was extremely terrifying; Then, the roar of thunder resounded in the sky, and the whole of Kyoto was shaken.

Emperor Chengyan's hand holding Rong Gu tightened suddenly.

"Your Majesty is afraid of thunder?"

Emperor Chengyan was silent and didn't bother to refute, glanced at Rong Gu with a puzzled face and worried eyes, and took something out of his arms.

"This is ......," Rong Gu's voice was hesitant.

"That's right." Emperor Chengyan replied, pinching the ink-colored dragon-patterned jade pendant in his hand, with an unpredictable expression.

This jade pendant is the personal thing of the emperors of the past dynasties, it is rumored that the founding ancestor got it by chance, this jade has the effect of turning auspicious into good fortune in distress, and it is regarded as a divine object by the emperors of the past dynasties and does not leave the body for a moment.

When Cheng Xiang was killed, Emperor Chengyan didn't believe it very much, but this jade pendant is actually heating up now.

Now that I think about it, the moment he woke up in this life, wasn't what he was holding in his hand was this jade pendant? Maybe... Emperor Chengyan's eyes narrowed slightly, and his face was calm in the candle flame, and he was clearly unfazed, but he inexplicably had a terrifying power.

Rong Gu's heart sank, and he raised his voice and called: "Your Majesty! ”

Awakened, Emperor Chengyan came back to his senses.

Perhaps, he thought, maybe that's why he was able to come back and hear the "system" speak. And the fever ...... Thinking that something has happened or will happen is a wake-up call. As for the good thing or the bad thing......

"It's okay, you don't have to worry." He said lightly.

"If Your Majesty has anything, you might as well say it, and Wechen will refer to it for you."

Emperor Chengyan glanced at her and smiled: "It's okay, let's rest." ”

He didn't want Rong Gu to get involved, although he wasn't, but he had already classified Rong Gu as "his own woman", his own woman was protected by himself, and he didn't want her to take risks.

Lowering his eyes and looking at the jade pendant in his hand, he secretly said that things are indeed troublesome, and the affairs of the system have not been sorted out yet, and now they are ......

"Your Majesty, believe it or not."

Emperor Chengyan raised his head and looked into his Rong Qing's eyes, and suddenly found that his Rong Qing's eyes were as beautiful as the jade pendant in his hand. No, where can Yu Pei compare to the living Rong Qing?

"I believe in you." Only he knows the sincerity of this sentence.

"Then why don't you talk to Weichen?" She asked lightly, in a tone that was too bland, as if she was asking about an ordinary matter. Emperor Chengyan stroked the head of the person in front of him funny, this is his Rong Qing, apart from her, who dares to peek into the emperor's mind generously? Well, not snooping, it's an open-minded inquiry.

"I don't want to hurt you." Another truth.

"Your Majesty doesn't look down on the ministers?" Do you think the minister is greedy for life and afraid of death?

The hand that touched the top of the person's head and went down paused in the same direction. looked at her carefully, and nodded helplessly for a while. His Rong Qing is not a little sapling that can't withstand the wind and waves, hiding from her and protecting her in the name of being good for her, and not telling her anything, which is an insult to her.

What's more, his Rong Qing standing in the court "coercive king" is naturally not a simple person, in his previous life, he took a lot of effort to get rid of her, but it was not only because he was too young and his methods were too rough at that time.

Rong Gu is very smart, in the previous life, she felt that she was not yet at the time to die, so she dragged on in his anger and resentment for several years, and then she didn't want to live anymore, so she ...... Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so easy to get his hands on.

"Since you want to know, I won't hide it from you." Although he wanted to say something serious, Emperor Chengyan still smiled ambiguously: "This is for the sake of Qing is sweetheart." He winked and nodded affirmatively.

Rong Gu said: "Thank you, Your Majesty." Emperor Chengyan raised his eyebrows in surprise, he seemed to see a "helpless" look on his Rong Qing's face?

Broken ice? His eyes widened.

"Your Majesty!" There was another call, but Emperor Chengyan didn't hear it, he carefully observed his beautiful face, and sure enough, it was helpless! Hey, why is there a burst of emotion in my heart, excitement, excitement, sourness and sweetness, how can I stop it?

It's, it's getting closer to me, isn't it?

Feeling that the efforts of the past few days have paid off, Emperor Chengyan's heart is agitated, but he still remembers to reply: "Then I won't hide it from you." "There is no need to conceal and protect, his appearance is clearly an eagle flying in the sky.

Looking at his Rong Qing's serious face, Emperor Chengyan smiled knowingly and spoke eloquently.

Emperor Chengyan said in detail, except for the things in his previous life, which he didn't plan to let Rong Gu know about in his life, because he couldn't afford it, at least for now.

So, from the jade pendant to the system, from the raider to the task, everything that can be said, he said, including how to deal with Gu Sanniang and how to explore the mystery of the system, although he was looked at by his Rong Qing, his face was quite hot.

He sees the system as a tool for the mastermind behind the scenes to control the raiders, just like the Gu worms in Southern Xinjiang.

At the beginning, Rong Gu was still extremely surprised, but he calmed down in a moment, his eyes were bright, and inside, Emperor Chengyan had no choice but to support his forehead, and it was a fighting spirit. Sure enough, he also thought that Rong Gu likes to challenge, just like in the northern frontier, every time she fights forward, not only to protect the frontier, but also because of ...... She likes it.

"Your Majesty hears only part of the conversation?" Rong Gu hit the nail on the head.

"That's true." Recently, he could hear Gu Sanniang and Ling Chuchu in the inn, but he didn't hear anyone else. The several groups of people who came out yesterday to provide evidence of Gu Sanniang's plagiarism, he was not sure that there were a few raiders hidden behind them, but he had never heard them talk to the system.

Emperor Chengyan's eyes were dark: "Take Gu Sanniang as an example, the reward she received in Yangzhou is supposed to be related to qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, but I don't know at all, I guess what I can hear is the part after she started to 'attack' me, and Ling Chuchu is the same example." ”

All in all, it can only be heard after the favorability exceeds "0", and the "talent" given to him by God is really limited.

Ling Chuchu in the inn had a favorability of "+5" because he had seen him once, so he heard her medicine every day very clearly, but he didn't understand it very well. It was a potion with strange powers: a potion that made people tell the truth, a medicine that made people fall in love with anyone, a medicine that made people transform into another person...... It's inconspicuous, but it's extremely difficult.

Although he was extremely shocked at first, he got used to it, and he would gloat because the girl seemed to have a bad talent, and she rarely succeeded, and the casserole that was blown up could fill the barn......

But......

Emperor Chengyan said: "There is a problem with Ling Chuchu's identity. Her eyes are mixed with blue, not like those from the Central Plains. "This is what Joan has discovered.

Ling Chuchu has a magic weapon that can see through people, and Qiao An has also spent a lot of effort, he doesn't know the principle of that magic weapon, so he can only cover it up to ensure that nothing goes wrong. He hired countless civilians to go in and out of the inn as if nothing happened, and sent lazy beggars to squat, as well as the temptation of Jiangyang's thief killers...... In short, you must not expose yourself.

Facts have proved that Ling Chuchu can see the location of the person clearly, and he can recognize it if he is easy to face, but he can't see the specific identity of the person.

Her strength is amazing, and her exercises are also very evil, people can't see how she kills, they only know what she is babbling about, but it seems to be a beginner, and there will always be a time when she can't do it...... In addition, the speed of the body is very poor. This is a conclusion heaped with countless appointments.

"Her eyes are blue." Repeating it again, Emperor Chengyan looked at Rong Gu and pointed out.

Turquoise? Rong Gu looked at the north with a complicated expression. Northern Xinjiang, where the Zhenbei Marquis of the past dynasties were stationed, and their enemies, the enemies of the entire Great Jin Dynasty, had blue eyes.

"It's not her body, but it's a big problem." Rong Gu said. She wasn't going to be surprised by the resurrection of a corpse.

"Aiqing, what you said is extremely true."

"Your Majesty, what will happen if you don't complete the mission?" Simply asked.

Emperor Chengyan's secret way is really hearty: "Those who are in high positions will be rewarded and punished." The people behind the scenes don't raise waste people and idlers. ”

"Can you rebel?"

"I guess there are people who are unwilling to drive, and I have the opportunity to give it a try."

"Your Majesty must not be gullible."

"That's nature." Those who dare to resist the "system" are either stunned or have the right idea, and to form an alliance with the stunned youth is to seek death, and to form an alliance with someone with the right idea...... Then it depends on the person's heart.

He was absolutely sure that none of those people saw the people of this world as human beings.

Rong Gu nodded in understanding. She asked, "Your Majesty, ...... that jade pendant?"

"I think there are some origins, next time I try to leave that jade pei, I can still hear them."

"Your Majesty wants to set up Gu Sanniang as a target?"

"That's what it means."

"How does Your Majesty treat those 'raiders'?"

"Yes. After using itβ€”" said lightly: "Kill." ”

"Does Your Majesty have any plans for the people behind the scenes?"

"Not really." It's really not, so you can't just kill it, you have to kill it so that people can't see that it was his hands and feet, otherwise, it will be very dangerous for the people behind the scenes to know his differences.

He thought about these things for a long time, and there was nothing else to say. Seeing Rong Gu's careful thinking, Emperor Chengyan's bad heart rose again, and he leaned over and said pitifully: "Rong Qing? ”

"Your Majesty?"

Continue to be pitiful: "Qing look at how hard I am, so many people fight my idea, I can't deal with it, it's nothing if something happens to me, but I don't have an heir, how should the Jiangshan Sheji of the Great Jin Dynasty be good when the time comes, Rong Qing ......"

"What does Your Majesty want?" The cold voice that made Emperor Chengyan discouraged.

"Qing will be my queen." If you don't feel at ease if you want to come, then be my queen...... Bar...... Bar...... I'll let you take care of it.

"Your Majesty is burned? Your queen should be a woman. "It's still cold and calm.

"I, I, you're justβ€”" You're a woman!!

Interrupted. "Your Majesty, the minister suddenly remembered something important." Extremely serious, not fake.

Emperor Chengyan's words were held in his mouth, but he also knew that Rong Gu was not a casual person: "What's the matter." ”

"Your Majesty, what kind of person do you say Ling Chuchu is?" Rong Gu's face was so bad that Emperor Chengyan thought that something was wrong with her injuries.

What kind of person is Ling Chuchu, what kind of person...... Emperor Chengyan slammed when he thought of something, and looked at Rong Gu in disbelief, and when Rong Gu saw it, he nodded his head.

Damn it!

Ling Chuchu was extremely ruthless. It's not terrible to be ruthless, but what is terrible is that she still has extremely strong force and is unscrupulous.

Unbridled!

Emperor Chengyan stood up abruptly and called out to Qiao An. It was he who miscalculated, this group of people did not act according to common sense, and they couldn't speculate with ordinary people's ideas, as long as they couldn't find their heads, they would dare to do anything, and he listened to Rong Gu's advice and agreed to a small-scale draft in the capital, and the news has been released for two whole days......

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty is not good, the daughter of the twenty-three ministers in Beijing died bizarrely and violently, the cause of death is unknown, Your Majesty! The daughters of small commoners, the dead are one hundred and twenty, Your Majesty! It is rumored outside that you are punishing your wife and concubine, Your Majesty! ”

Bangβ€”β€”! Emperor Chengyan's heart was on fire, and he smashed several cases with one palm. What a brazen slaughter of his people!

"Your Majesty!" Rong Gu was shocked, regardless of grabbing his hand.

"Your Majesty forgives you." Rong Gu dragged him to the edge of the bed to bandage, and Emperor Chengyan moved by her, her movements were gentle but fast, thinking that she had bandaged the wound too many times.

Emperor Chengyan continued to be silent, and after a long while, he slowly spoke: "It's okay, I'm fine, this is not all bad." "The reputation of the wife and concubine can scare off many real Jin people, and those who have come up like this are almost certainly the raiders. Let alone...... Staring carefully at Rong Gu's serious side face, he also knew that his eyes were focused and hot.

Rong Gu's hands stiffened, frowned, then lowered his head and continued the movements in his hands, after the bandaging was completed, he said for a while: "Your Majesty, it's not a joke?" ”

"Naturally, no." "Your Majesty, the minister is a man, you ......" is ready to speak at length." Needless to say, Lian understands. "He didn't want to talk to her anymore, he was tired.
