"Don't you really want to ask about Cen Xi?" Du Rong's tone of this question changed subtly, as if he was looking forward to my question.

I couldn't help frowning, thinking about it for a while, but I still shook my head resolutely.

Du Rong is used to digging traps for me, and I have to guard against them.

Du Rong looked at me with disappointment, and sighed, "Poor Royal Highness the Prince, he is still locked up in the Forbidden Speech Pavilion and suffering, and I don't know if anyone else will care about him." ”

"What did you say?" I was so shocked that I almost jumped out of bed, "What are you locked up in the Forbidden Word Pavilion?" How could he be locked up in the Forbidden Word Pavilion? ”

Du Rong didn't answer my question right away this time, but said, "Don't you want to ask about him?" Why, so quickly reversed? ”

Damn, I already knew that he would dig a hole for me, and I still fell into it by all precautions!

"I repented, I admit I repented." I surrender" You quickly make it clear, otherwise today, no, every day in Qi Country in the future, I won't be able to sleep well, eat well, and think about things well. ”

"What does that matter to me? Anyway, I can sleep well, eat well, and think things through. "Du Rong looked like 'it's none of his business, hang high', and he was not moved at all.

"Tell me what you want." Du Rong has always been soft and hard, no matter if I threaten him or plead with him softly, it may not have any effect, but just just order it directly, and save me from embarrassment.

"Well...... Du Rong raised his head and thought about it carefully, and finally looked down at me in distress, "I haven't thought about anything I want you to do for me now, so let's save this for later, and when I think the time is almost right, I will ask you for it back." ”

Inexplicably, I felt as if I had lost all my money in this transaction.

"Deal." Although I am nervous, the present is much more important than the unknowable future." ”

"It's a long story." Du Rong hesitated.

"Let's make a long story short." I gritted my teeth.

Du Rong looked at me like this way I wanted to get angry but didn't dare to do so, and laughed happily in my heart.

"Du, Rong!" I have decided that when he will ask me anything, I will tease him like this, so as to avenge my revenge today.

Du Rong saw that I was about to get annoyed, but he didn't tease me anymore.

"A few days after you left, there was news in the palace that the prince forcibly broke into the imperial study, spoke harshly to Concubine Mei, and spoke disrespectfully, the emperor was furious, and asked the guards to arrest him into the Forbidden Speech Pavilion, and put down his words, as long as the prince refused to apologize to Concubine Mei for a day, he was not allowed to leave the cabinet for a day. The prince is arrogant and refuses to bow his head, and the ending can be imagined. “

"Why did he break into the study? Crazy? "I really want to fly to the Qinguo Palace right now and punch Cen Xi hard to make his mind clearer.

Where is it not possible to be arrogant? It's the emperor's imperial study!

Now the emperor is just punishing him for seclusion, if he lets Pei Dang provoke this matter in the future, a forced palace to commit a saint, he will wait for the head to fall to the ground.

"How do I know that?" Du Rong spread his hands, "It is rumored in the palace that the prince broke the good thing of the emperor and Concubine Mei in the imperial study, and he was not angry for a while, so he spoke out and humiliated him and faced the crime. But what is the truth, and you will have to ask the prince for yourself. ”

"Aren't you familiar with him?" I frowned, "Why don't you send someone to sneak in and ask?" ”

The corners of Du Rong's mouth twitched, and he said with a smile: "When did I get acquainted with him?" Besides, even if he and I were really good friends, would he be willing to tell my subordinates about this? Think about it. ”

I understand what Du Rong said, but he was a little confused by Cen Xi.

The current situation is how hard it took him and me to get it here, and once it is out of control, it will be difficult to make a comeback.

The more I thought about it, the more I couldn't stay in this bed, so I simply lifted the quilt and got out of bed, put on a coat and sat down behind the bookcase.

"At the beginning, I said that I wanted to keep a few people by his side, so that everyone could communicate and exchange information, but he looked at me to death, and he refused to let me arrange people around him, but now it's okay, and I lost the opportunity!" I was so angry that I couldn't help but flick the brush, and the ink splattered, staining my own clothes.

"Damn!" I was so irritated that I dropped my pen on the table.

Du Rong looked at my impatient appearance, couldn't help frowning, and walked to my side.

"When you meet him, you can't help but be too unsettled, since he is willing to be locked inside, he must have his own plans, he is not a passive person." Du Rong comforted me.

I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself.

"You know, Bai Zhi was still sent by the emperor to guard the mission." I said to him.

Du Rong nodded, "He is Lu Xuan's righteous son, and if Lu Xuan wants the emperor to be promoted to his official, he naturally has to give him a chance to perform." "E-book shop

I groaned and shook my head.

Du Rong's analysis is right and wrong.

"Bai Zhi is still Cen Xi's person." I said.

"Really?" Du Rong was a little unconvinced, "I still have heard a little about Bai Zhihuan's past deeds, he has never had any deep intersection with the prince at all, how can he be the prince's person?" ”

I didn't doubt that, because the evidence was overwhelming.

"He acquiesced, and he seems to be an apprentice of Master Yang in private, Master Yang is Cen Xi's teacher, if Cen Xi wants this person, Master Yang will not give it." I thought about it.

"Are you saying that Bai Zhi is still the talent that Master Yang specially prepared for Cen Xi?" When Du Rong heard me say this, he suddenly felt that everything made sense.

I nodded.

Since I entered the palace to meet Emperor Qi, I have been thinking about the friendship between the two countries in the guest house, but I haven't done much research on Bai Zhi, and now that I have said this, I also understand the twists and turns.

Bai Zhi or Lu Xuan recommended it to the emperor well, but behind this was Cen Xi's calculation. Now the position of the commander of the Praetorian Guard is temporarily replaced by him, Pei Dang has long been staring at this piece of fat, although the emperor wants to reduce the power of Pei Dang, but there is no available person at the moment, and all those who have a little ability are enveloped by Pei Dang, or they are cowardly and afraid, and the burden of this Praetorian Guard cannot be resisted at all.

This Bai Zhiyou can also think of a clear lotus in the mud, the traces of loyalty are in front, the power of Shangshu is behind, and he is a very capable person, if you want to say that the emperor does not want to take advantage of this escort to protect him as the commander of the Praetorian Guard, I am afraid that people with a little longer brains will not believe it.

But if the emperor wants to achieve his goal, he has to break through the blockade of the Pei party, and Cen Xi, who is temporarily in charge, is an excellent excuse, so Cen Xi will be so disregarded about the consequences and make a big fuss in the imperial study.

"If the emperor hadn't borne the pressure of the Pei Party, I'm afraid Cen Xi's plan would have to fall through completely." In any case, I feel that Cen Xi's approach is too risky.

If the Pei Party exerts too much pressure, let alone the position of the commander of the Praetorian Guard, I am afraid that the emperor will let Cen Xi go around in anger, and when the time comes, coupled with the instigation of the Pei Party, maybe the crown prince will not be able to keep his position.

"This is the courage of those who have achieved great things, and the road taken by the emperor and the prince is destined to move forward only by relying on the luck of God." Du Rong said, "And the prince has always been angry with the emperor because of the events of that year, and the matter of the imperial study is not a coincidence, but it may not be the prince's intention." ”

This is right, Cen Xi rarely has such a time to vent his grievances openly.

"It seems that Qi's trip to the country must be accelerated a little faster, so that it can end and return to China as soon as possible." I pondered, "The emperor probably can't resist the pressure of the Pei Party, and besides, it is really inappropriate for the crown prince to be locked up in the forbidden pavilion all the time." ”

Of course, this is what Du Rong expected, and he said boldly at the moment, "If you have any difficulties, just ask me for help, and I will definitely not shirk more." ”

My eyes lit up, and I smiled at him, "If you are willing to be so generous, I might as well be respectful." ”

"What's wrong?" Du Rong paused.

"Of course," I took it for granted, "Do you know Qi Guo Wei Ren, Wei Shangshu?" ”

Du Rong thought for a while and nodded, "This person can't talk about loyalty and treachery, and the position of Shangshu can be regarded as a seniority, and it is precisely because of this that he became the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites." ”

"I think there's something wrong with this guy." I said to him, "I don't have many opportunities to deal with him, a few days ago, I took the opportunity to fool him at the big banquet in the womb, and he was so scared that he didn't even dare to show his face." ”

"You want me to check him out for you?" When Du Rong heard me say this, he was a little interested.

I nodded, "This may have something to do with Emperor Qi's purpose, Emperor Qi let him go, or induced him to do so many funny things in a row, I don't believe there is no reason behind it." ”

"Okay." Du Rong nodded, "Since I have already promised you, you just wait for the good news." ”

Du Rong can be so happy, this is something I didn't expect in advance, but there is no need for me to pretend to be a gentleman, pretend to be high or something.

"There is news from the Gongqin Guo Mansion that Gu Yuancheng is going to marry Princess Huizhong, do you know about this?" After being silent for a while, Du Rong suddenly asked me.

I was stunned for a moment, then lowered my eyes and nodded, "I know." ”

"Then you ......" Du Rong looked at me, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

"His private affairs have nothing to do with me." I took away the white paper stained with ink on the bookcase, re-dipped the ink with my pen, and then began to write letters, and I just replied indifferently to Du Rong's words.

Du Rong didn't know why, but he shook his head and sighed.

"Well, since you have said so, I don't need to say anything more, I think with your friendship with him, a glass of wedding wine should always be able to be drunk."

After speaking, Du Rong walked to the window and was about to leave, but suddenly remembered something, turned back to me and said, "Your right hand has been injured, it's better not to write, this kind of errand is handed over to Bai Zhihui, Cen Xi always trusts him." ”
