Chapter 214: Tempting the King of Ruyang

The luncheon did not end until three o'clock.

Xiao Yan, Zhang Lianchuan and Tian Boguang were drunk and were sent back in a carriage arranged by Xiao Rui. Zhuge Liuying still had something to do, and he also took the first step, leaving Xiao Qingqing to accompany Xiao Rui.

"Qingqing, I'll send you home." Xiao Rui turned to look at her, it seemed that it was because of drinking, and his cheeks were crimson like peach blossoms, which made Xiao Rui can't help but think of the time in Ling Xiaolou, and his heart was hot.

Xiao Qingqing seemed to feel something, and bowed his head slightly shyly, and said: "It just so happens that last time you went to visit my father at my house, but unfortunately he was not at home, and afterwards I talked about it, and he also said that when you have time to go there, just chat." ”

Xiao Rui was stunned, and a basin of cold water was suddenly poured on his fiery heart.

When I went to Ruyang Wangfu that day, the visit was fake, and the temptation was real. The people behind the collusion with the Cao family caravan to assassinate Xiao Rui were able to enter and leave the Ruyang Palace freely, so Xiao Rui had to be cautious. It's a pity that there was no progress in the last trial, although Jia Xu also secretly investigated these days, but the water in the Ruyang Palace's mansion was too deep, and the clues found were limited, and the number of staff of the King of Ruyang alone was not investigated, let alone found that person.

Moreover, what made Xiao Rui even more uncertain was whether King Ruyang was also involved.

It stands to reason that when the king of Ruyang learned about Xiao Qingqing's relationship with himself, he must be someone from his own side, and the facts are so, but Xiao Rui can't believe the self-righteous facts.

Xiao Rui has learned to be cautious.

"What's wrong? Suddenly motionless? Xiao Qingqing asked.

Xiao Rui has already practiced without pretending, so naturally he will not let Xiao Qingqing see his inner thoughts, he smiled: "I was thinking about meeting Master Yue, what gifts to bring, would it be rude to go empty-handed." ”

Xiao Qingqing was ashamed and snorted: "Who is your father-in-law, your father-in-law is the champion Hou, don't talk nonsense." Besides, you brought a lot of stuff with you last time, so forget it this time. ”

Xiao Rui nodded and said with a smile: "Okay!" ”

Immediately, Li Yuanfang went to drive and escorted Xiao Rui and Xiao Qingqing to Ruyang Palace.

The king of Ruyang was feeding the fish in the garden, and when he heard that the king of Xian was coming, he hurriedly greeted him, and then invited the king of Xian into the main hall.

"Last time King Xian visited, I happened to go to King Zhou to play chess, but I didn't return for a long time, so I kept you waiting." King Ruyang smiled.

Xiao Rui said respectfully: "Uncle Huang is serious, I also came to sit casually, there is no big deal." ”

King Ruyang said: "I heard that Your Majesty appointed you as the escort of the martial arts?" ”

"Yes, my father trusted, and handed over this errand to me, I'm worried, don't be careless." Xiao Rui looked melancholy.

"How so!" King Ruyang admired: "King Xian is not only both civil and military, but also cares about the people, this charity auction for the affected people to raise funds, the people word of mouth, all praise His Royal Highness's kindness, willing to set up a longevity tablet for you, a small martial arts to accompany the prison, how can you?" ”

"To borrow the emperor's uncle's auspicious words, as long as you don't disappoint your father." Xiao Rui said.

King Ruyang replied: "Your Majesty's eyes are like a torch, as long as you perform well, you will be able to get what you want in the future." ”

"It's difficult, there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck, so we can only say that we live in the moment!" Xiao Rui said deliberately.

King Ruyang nodded, and said leisurely: "That's right, people have good and bad luck, which no one can control, so you can only be careful." ”

The gossip was almost over, Xiao Rui looked back at Xiao Qingqing, and said, "Qingqing, you go down and rest for a while, I'll talk to Uncle Huang for a while and then go back, you drank a lot of wine with Liuying and Zhang Ruoxi at the luncheon, and it's not comfortable at this time, go and rest." ”

King Ruyang smiled and said: "Yes, you go down, it's boring to sit here, and talk to King Xian for your father." ”

Xiao Qingqing nodded, and then left.

As soon as she left, King Ruyang asked, "Your Highness, Qingqing is gone, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly!" ”

Xiao Rui pretended to be curious and said, "What does Uncle Huang mean by this?" ”

"Don't pretend, you kid. The last time I came to me in a hurry, this time I talked in a hurry, and it was an unforeseen situation, and it was a blessing and a curse, something must happen! King Ruyang scolded with a smile: "Pretend in front of me, I eat more salt than you eat!" ”

Xiao Rui wanted to refute him, this sentence is wrong, because according to the measurement of human salt, the daily consumption of 6g, a year is 2190g, and fifty years is...

Shaking his head, Xiao Rui felt that he was off topic.

Hurriedly pulling his attention back, Xiao Rui smiled and said: "Let Uncle Huang laugh, my nephew does have something, but let's say it, I'm afraid of angering Uncle Huang, don't say it, I'm afraid of making a big mistake." ”

"Oh? What's the matter? The king of Ruyang immediately sat down and asked.

Xiao Rui said: "Uncle Huang, do you remember the incident of me and King Tang being assassinated in the east of the city?" ”

King Ruyang nodded and said, "Naturally, I know, because of the arrogance of the assassins, His Majesty sent Dongchang and Jinyi Wei to strictly inspect the capital, what's wrong?" Got a clue? ”

"Not only did the clues be found, but all the people involved in the case were hunted down, among which the leader of the assassination, Cao Hanbing of the Cao family of the Great Zhao State, was also captured by Dongchang." Xiao Rui said: "After this person was arrested, my father asked me to interrogate him personally, and under my coercion and temptation, he confided the truth and confessed to the assassination, but he mentioned one thing, that is, he was able to successfully calculate me in the capital, and almost succeeded in the assassination, all because there were black hands in the capital to give them advice, and this person was extremely cunning, every time they met, he was dressed in disguise, and his whereabouts were cautious, and it was extremely difficult to track." ”

While Xiao Rui spoke, he always looked at the expression of King Ruyang.

But he is an old Jianghu, frowning and listening to Xiao Rui's narration, there is no discoloration in his eyes, and he can't see his inner fluctuations at all.

"The killer of the Cao family came out of the capital, and it is extremely difficult to find out your whereabouts, and even to kill you, unless someone who is familiar with you can design to lure you into the game. It seems that the people behind the scenes are familiar with you... No wonder you would say that people have good and bad luck. King Ruyang sighed with emotion.

"The dispute between the princes cannot be prevented by all means, and you must be prepared for this matter in advance. Otherwise, it will be difficult to persevere to the end. "King Ruyang said very implicitly.

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "What Uncle Huang said is that I have long been mentally prepared for this matter. As I just said, it is extremely difficult to follow the person behind the scenes, but that Cao Hanbing is also cunning, so he is afraid of being used, so he designed to follow and finally succeeded in following that person! ”

King Ruyang raised his eyebrows and hurriedly asked, "Who is this person?" ”

Xiao Rui sighed and said, "Cao Hanbing recruited from the truth, saying that this person has entered... Ruyang Palace! ”

"What? Entered my mansion? King Ruyang was taken aback and said in surprise: "Impossible! ”

Xiao Rui said: "I naturally won't believe it, but after exhausting many means, Cao Hanbing has always bitten the people behind the scenes to enter the Ruyang Palace, and enter through the back door." I naturally knew that it was impossible for Uncle Huang to send someone to kill me, so I didn't dare to say it, for fear of making Uncle Huang angry. But the palace is so big, if there are really wicked people hiding here, if I don't say it, won't I put the emperor's uncle, Qingqing, and the princess and aunt in danger? ”

King Ruyang nodded and said: "This is reasonable, I will send my henchmen to check all the people in the palace tomorrow, you can rest assured, if the mastermind behind the scenes is really hiding here, I will immediately inform you to see if I can follow the vine and find the person who is hiding deeper." ”

Xiao Rui smiled: "This will trouble Uncle Huang." ”

"One family doesn't talk two words." King Ruyang sighed and said: "Although I am far away from the court, but after all, the false name of the generalissimo of soldiers and horses will also arouse jealousy and suspicion, and now it is an example, it seems that I have to find an opportunity to tell Your Majesty, remove the false name of the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, and I will also plant my flowers and raise my fish leisurely, wouldn't it be happy?" ”

Xiao Rui smiled, his heart fluctuated, but his face showed no expression, and said: "I think my father will never allow the imperial uncle to resign from the position of generalissimo of soldiers and horses, once there is a major war, there must be a prestige commander, throughout the Great Xia military generals series, only the imperial uncle finally has such a prestige!" ”

"Haha...... No, no, old, next is the world of you young people! Wait a few more years, and the champion Hou is the most military meritorious and prestigious person among the generals, and he will be caught by your kid. King Ruyang smiled.

……

Xiao Qingqing had just come out of the main hall and was about to go back to the house to rest, and drank some liquor at luncheon, and his mind was a little cloudy at this time.

She took a few steps and suddenly thought that Xiao Rui had also drunk a lot of wine, and she didn't know if he needed to drink some hot soup to sober up.

So she turned around and went back, and when she first arrived at the main hall, she happened to hear Xiao Rui say that the mastermind behind the scenes had entered the Ruyang Palace, so she stiffened and did not go in, but secretly hid outside the door and listened to the conversation inside.

……

Xiao Rui was still chatting with King Ruyang.

"Although I have a marriage contract with my Zhuge Liuying, but the champion Hou is loyal to my father, if he has other thoughts, he is not the champion Hou, and he will not get the trust of my father, and the same is true for Zhuge Yuanba. Of course, the nephew can use their prestige to pull the tiger skin, so that the people who are secretly peeping will not dare to do it without permission, and this is enough. Xiao Rui smiled.

King Ruyang said: "That's right, the Zhuge family has been loyal for a generation, and they are only loyal to Your Majesty." But don't be presumptuous, now that you and Qingqing have a good relationship, I will definitely help you! What's the difficulty, even if you come to me, I still have some face among civil and military officials! Haha..."

Xiao Rui was overjoyed and said, "Thank you Uncle Huang for your support!" ”

King Ruyang nodded, quite emotional: "I have no children under my knees, only Qingqing has a baby daughter, I don't help you, who will I help?" Life does not bring death, and death does not take away. ”

Xiao Rui smiled back and did not answer.

He saw that the temptation was almost the same, and there would be no breakthrough if he continued to talk, and the king of Ruyang was shrewd and sophisticated, and it was difficult to test through language.

However, Xiao Rui has already caught what he wants.

"Uncle Huang, it's getting late, so my nephew won't disturb Uncle Huang to rest early." Xiao Rui stood up and saluted.

King Ruyang also got up and said, "Okay! Go back and get an early rest. ”

Xiao Rui nodded, and the King of Ruyang sent him out of the main hall and asked the steward to send Xiao Rui out of the mansion.

King Ruyang stood in front of the door and watched Xiao Rui leave his sight, and the smile on his face returned to calm.

Then he turned and left.

Xiao Qingqing hid in the shadows, and waited for the two of them to leave before coming out.

Her face was unpredictable, and her teeth were clenching her lip.
