Chapter 38: King Rui relieves the siege
Xiao Jinxuan will lose her mind, not because she is greedy for the other party's handsomeness, after all, after seeing Zhou Xianyu, the face of all beings upside down, looking at others, is a little inferior.
And she will lose her mind because in her previous life, she has almost died many times in the hands of His Royal Highness King Rui.
Ji Lingfeng doesn't talk about character, he is indeed a rare talent, when the Second Highness and the crown prince were in dispute, he was the person that His Royal Highness relied on the most.
And King Rui, who supported the crown prince, naturally regarded him as a thorn in his side, and poisoned, assassinated, and assassinated him many times, and wanted to get rid of him quickly.
Xiao Jinxuan ate poisonous snacks for Ji Lingfeng at that time, and was hunted down and killed as a stand-in, these were all the handiwork of King Rui.
There was even a time when His Royal Highness the Rui King kidnapped her directly, originally to force Ji Lingfeng to comply, but the good husband in her previous life didn't care about her life or death at all, and in the end, it was the Rui King who said that she was useless and let her go, which can be regarded as escaping.
If you talk about the previous life, who she hated and feared the most in the years when she and Ji Lingfeng were suffering together, except for this Rui King, she couldn't find a second person.
Now that she is a human being, it is really amazing that she will now ask this former enemy for help, and speak calmly to each other.
Zhou Xianrui saw that the little girl in front of him, who was ten years younger than himself, looked at himself directly, and couldn't help but smile again.
asked jokingly: "Why, this is stupid, the king is going to take back what he just said, you are still a little woman." ”
Xiao Jinxuan blinked, came back to her senses, and said with a slight smile: "His Royal Highness King Rui said that she laughed, Jinxuan is already a woman, and she deserves your previous praise." ”
Zhou Xianrui glanced at Xiao Jinxuan deeply, smiled, and didn't say anything.
Turning to look at the six princes, taking in the other party's panic, Zhou Xianrui said calmly: "Sixth brother, why don't you speak, if you can't give me a suitable reason, you people, I can only make trouble by gathering a crowd and arrest them all." ”
The body of the sixth prince trembled, this fifth brother, the calmer his voice, the more panicked it was.
looked at the guards who knelt on the ground in a row, there were not many people he brought this time, without them, what they wanted to do, they would have to be tied.
Enduring the fear in his heart, the sixth prince smiled and said ugly than crying: "Fifth brother, it is that Xiao Jinxuan, who is demagogic here, and forced Lord Song to open a warehouse to release grain, which makes people panic, and I am afraid that it will cause a worse impact, so I want to take her down." ”
But Zhou Xianrui smiled, then looked at the six princes with cold eyes, and said slowly: "People are panicking, that's because the people can't eat, and they can't see hope. Song Peng, you are guilty. ”
Song Peng, who was listening to the theory of the two princes, didn't expect Zhou Xianrui to suddenly point the finger at him, so he knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said: "His Royal Highness King Rui Mingjian, the minister doesn't know what the criminal is." ”
Zhou Xianrui's deep eyes stared at Song Peng's figure, and said in a low voice: "As a parent official, in the face of natural disasters, I don't know how to be flexible, I would rather watch the people starve to death and freeze to death, than give relief to disasters and release grain. ”
Song Peng saw the sweat on his head, and he didn't dare to distinguish half a sentence, but just knelt there and kowtowed, sincerely afraid.
King Rui wears a golden dragon sword, and his words and deeds are like His Majesty's presence, Song Peng dares to reason with Xiao Jinxuan, but he does not dare to be presumptuous in front of King Rui.
After taking care of Song Peng, Zhou Xianrui looked at the sixth prince from a new perspective, and said solemnly: "I know that the sixth brother and Lord Song have always been close, but you shouldn't be indistinguishable from wrong, you also defend such a confused official, but as a prince but don't listen to the voice of the people, as a royal brother, I am really sad." ”
The sixth prince was already afraid of King Rui, and when he heard this, he hurriedly lowered his head, not to mention refutation, but he didn't dare to defend a word.
Seeing that Zhou Xianrui thought for a while, he said again: "Sixth brother, you are so confused today, for the sake of brother, I will punish you to reflect on the Song Mansion again, when did you divide the loyalty and traitor, when are you coming out." ”
When the sixth prince heard this, his eyes closed, knowing that this was the end, he was no different from being under house arrest, but King Rui was reasonable, and he was his brother. He couldn't refute it, so he could only respond.
Finally, Zhou Xianrui's gaze looked at Ji Lingfeng, and a touch of disgust flashed through his eyes.
I saw him say in a low voice: "Ji Lingfeng, as a guest next to my sixth brother, he did something wrong that he didn't know right from wrong, if you don't dissuade him, the responsibility will not escape, today I will give you thirty canes to set an example." ”
Ji Lingfeng didn't refute, but knelt down in a dashing manner, and said in a loud voice: "King Rui is wise, Ling Feng is convinced." "After that, it was a bow.
It was just that the corners of his mouth sneered when his head hit the cold ground.
I didn't expect that in this game, King Rui actually joined forces with Xiao Jinxuan, he lost today, although you have disaster relief and food, I will let you know that good things are not so easy to do!
Xiao Jinxuan, who was standing on the side, smiled, sure enough, this Rui Wang is Ji Lingfeng's nemesis, he was in his previous life, and he is still now, which is really interesting.
And Zhou Xianrui, who was beside her, just turned around, and took in Xiao Jinxuan's smile.
This little girl doesn't have a cold face, and she is so sweet when she laughs.
Waving his hand to the people kneeling around, Zhou Xianrui raised his voice and said: "Everyone, get up quickly, this king is now in Yangzhou, and he will never ignore this snow disaster. ”
Xiao Jinxuan also said at this time: "Today's five truckloads of grain, I will arrange people to distribute it according to the head, you can come to receive it now, I believe that we in Yangzhou will be able to survive this natural disaster." ”
Rui Wang represented the royal family of the Son of Heaven, Xiao Jinxuan represented Xiao Heng, these two repeatedly assured that the people were relieved and grateful, and they knelt on the ground again, shouting Rui Wang Xianming, Xiao Jinxuan Bodhisattva's heart.
Seeing that everything was in order, Xiao Jinxuan was naturally not suitable, so she stayed here all the time, leaving Baizhu and Zhuxin behind to help distribute rice and grain, and she was ready to go home.
Before getting into the carriage, she found that Wen Xin was already sitting in the position of driving the car, Xiao Jinxuan smiled and said: "Please come to King Rui this time, you have to remember the first work, let's go back to the house quickly, there is still something busy." ”
In the past few days, she has collected a lot of cotton clothes and herbs, and after the disaster relief site is built, these things can come in handy.
Although she does have the intention of taking advantage of this snow disaster to make a name for herself, she also really wants to help these victims.
After all, she has also experienced this snowstorm, and she has lost her relatives because of it, this kind of suffering can only be deeply experienced by those who have suffered, and now that she has the ability, she is naturally willing to lend a hand to help others.
Wen Xin smiled and said excitedly: "Originally, you said that there was a noble person in the inn who asked me to invite me, but I never thought that it would be a prince, but your token is still easy to use, and King Rui came with me when he saw it." ”
As he spoke, he took out the Black Tiger Token from his arms and handed it to Xiao Jinxuan.
Just when Xiao Jinxuan put away the token from the new, Zhou Xianrui rode over on a jujube red horse and said with a chuckle: "The Black Tiger Token, the symbol of the Xiao family's lineage, use this thing to invite, I'm afraid that few people in our Great Zhou Dynasty will miss the appointment." ”
Xiao Jinxuan gave a salute and said with a smile: "Thank you today, His Royal Highness King Rui, come to relieve the siege, but Jinxuan still has something to do, so he has to leave first, and he will prepare a gift to thank him in the future." ”
Today, she attracted the other party, but it was not that she couldn't get out of the way, but she had to wait for the other party to save her.
It's just that this Rui Wang is Ji Lingfeng's nemesis, she has long wanted to make friends with the other party, and today's matter is the final entry point, not to be abrupt and not presumptuous.
Zhou Xianrui nodded, but said: "Seeing that most of the people left by the fourth lady are here to help put the grain, this king is not very worried that you will go back to the house by yourself, anyway, it is also a stop, so let's go together." ”
Xiao Jinxuan was stunned for a moment, this Rui Wang is notoriously indifferent and serious, why did he suddenly become enthusiastic today.
But in the end, it was a kindness from others, and Xiao Jinxuan was inconvenient to refuse, and after thanking her again, she got into the carriage, and Zhou Xianrui really rode a horse, followed the right side of her body, and escorted her back to her home.
Xiao Jinxuan came out today to do business, so she didn't bring anything to pass the time in the car, it was really boring, so she opened the curtain and looked out.
Whoever wants to look at it this way, he saw Zhou Xianrui covering his mouth with his fists, coughing in a low voice, and occasionally snorting his nose twice, obviously suffering from the wind cold.
Xiao Jinxuan frowned, thought for a while, and said softly: "Your Highness, are you okay, it seems that you are not feeling well." ”
Zhou Xianrui looked at her, shook his head, and said calmly: "It's just a little typhoid fever, it's not in the way, it's bothering the fourth lady." ”
Who knew that at this time, following Zhou Xianrui, a woman in a strong suit drove forward and said dissatisfiedly: "Lord Wang, your high fever has not subsided now, how can it be okay, you could have recovered well, but it is really troublesome to make a broken brand to annoy you." ”
After the woman finished speaking, she turned her head and glared at Xiao Jinxuan fiercely, and the dislike in her expression was not concealed for half a minute.
This woman is tall and slender, heroic, dressed in a black and red patterned suit, with a long soft whip two fingers thick tied around her waist, and her body is full of anger, and she is not an ordinary woman at first glance.
Zhou Xianrui frowned, and said unhappily: "Chiling, when did you talk so much, and you still didn't retreat." ”
The woman, who was called Chi Ling, looked anxious, but she didn't say anything after all, but when she turned around, she glanced at Xiao Jinxuan again with sharp eyes.
Xiao Jinxuan naturally felt Chi Ling's hostility, but she ignored it, and just said softly: "King Rui, it's cold and the road is cold, you really shouldn't be riding a horse when you're sick now, if you don't dislike it, just come in the carriage." ”
After all, this week, Xianrui came here to relieve her siege, and now that the other party is sick, she can't pretend not to see it, and she doesn't say anything with peace of mind.
Zhou Xianrui glanced at Xiao Jinxuan deeply, and after a while, he nodded and smiled, which was considered to be an acceptance of this proposal.
When the carriage drove forward again, the two people sitting opposite the car, because they were more quiet, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere around them was inevitably a little embarrassing.
Xiao Jinxuan also realized this, coughed lightly, and felt that she should say something.
"King Rui, I ......"
"Fourth Miss, you ......"
As if they had discussed, the two of them either didn't speak, but now when they spoke, they opened their mouths at the same time.
Glancing at each other, both of them smiled, Xiao Jinxuan said softly: "What does King Rui want to say, you can say it first." ”
Zhou Xianrui nodded, and then asked: "I'm just curious, if I hadn't arrived in time today, I'm afraid that the fourth miss would have become the soul of my sixth brother's sword, I don't know how the fourth miss will repay me." ”
