Chapter 393: The King of Chu wants to take revenge
When the edict from the palace came down to the East Factory, Wei Dabao sat down on the chair with mixed feelings in his heart.
He was transferred back to the Inner Court Division, and the position of steward was held by Wei Zhongxian, and the fact that he and Xiao Jing continued to cooperate was known to Hai Dafu, so Hai Dafu was ruthless. And after thinking about it, Wei Dabao finally understood that this was a trap set by Wei Zhongxian, waiting for him to jump down!
Coincidentally, just when Wei Dabao was thinking, Wei Zhongxian walked into the room in high spirits, looking at this bright and spacious study, it will be his own from now on, and the huge East Factory is also responsible for himself, and his smile did not close.
Looking at Wei Dabao, who was still sitting on the top position, Wei Zhongxian lost his previous respect, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law Wei, you are still resting, do you want this official to pack your bags for you?" ”
Wei Dabao was furious in his heart, gritted his teeth and said, "Wei Zhongxian, it's very good!" Very good! Our family underestimated you, but do you think you will be safe and sound when you sit in the East Factory manager? We'll see! ”
Wei Zhongxian was not afraid of him at all, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law Wei, you have to use your brains before you speak, your transfer and the appointment of the official are both the ideas of Father-in-law Hai, so the person you have to complain about is something else." In addition, as a former subordinate of Father-in-law Wei, this official has the obligation to remind Father-in-law Wei that the position of the manager of the East Factory is easy to attract hatred, and now that you have been transferred to the Inner Court Division, you should be careful when walking at night! ”
"You dare to threaten me?" Wei Dabao was furious.
Wei Zhongxian snorted coldly and shouted: "It's not too early, this official won't send Grandpa Wei!" Please! ”
Wei Dabao was trembling with anger, but he was no longer the manager of the East Factory, so he could only hide his hatred in his heart, and then find an opportunity to retaliate!
Seeing Wei Dabao leave in a hurry, Wei Zhongxian sat on the top and looked intoxicated.
Xiao Rui was chatting with Xiao Yan in the mansion when he suddenly heard a prompt sound from the system.
"Ding-dong... Wei Zhongxian and the host's entanglement value is +20, and the current entanglement value is 85/100. ”
Xiao Rui immediately smiled, it seemed that sitting in the position of steward had brought the relationship between the two closer. It is believed that when he sits on the throne of the crown prince or he sits on the position of palm print, the entanglement value will be full, and thus converted into loyalty value.
"Seventh brother, why are you smiling so ill-intentionedly?" Xiao Yan looked at Xiao Rui and asked.
Xiao Rui came back to his senses and said, "You're about to leave Kyoto, I'm naturally happy!" ”
Xiao Yan pursed his lips and said, "We are brothers, you are really gloating." But why hasn't my father's will come down yet? ”
His Majesty has agreed to appoint Xiao Yan as the assassin of Hangzhou, calculate the time, and the will should also come down. After all, if you don't come down again, it's going to be the New Year.
Xiao Rui has been so busy recently that he forgot that he had entered the wax moon and was about to celebrate the New Year, and there was already a New Year's atmosphere on the street at this time.
"There have been too many things happening recently, and I don't want to rush my father." Xiao Rui said casually, as for His Majesty's intentions, it is actually easy to guess.
Once the white tiger waits to return to Beijing, it is not just as simple as Xiguo Gong being corrupt and perverting the law, but involving the enemy and betraying the country, the collapse of the Zhou family's gate valve, plus the king of Chu is happy to be his father, and now it has become the laughing stock of the people of Kyoto, and he has lost the qualification to compete for the crown prince!
Therefore, His Majesty wants to delay, and when the time comes, let him be sent abroad as an official with Xiao Yan, which can be regarded as saving him enough face.
However, two princes are sent abroad, how can there be three princes sent abroad together?
Xiao Rui's plan is not over, Wei Zhongxian has served as the manager of the East Factory, and the next thing is to find a way to deal with Xiao Jing.
"By the way, Brother Seven, Lian Chuan sent me a letter!" At this time, Xiao Yan sounded something and said, "Now Your Majesty has given marriage and asked Seventh Brother to marry Sister Liuying and Sister Ruoxue, but have you thought about Sister Ruoxi's feelings?" ”
The corners of Xiao Rui's mouth twitched, and he said this as if he had abandoned it from the beginning.
Xiao Yan said again: "Although Lian Chuan's letter did not complain, I expressed sadness, regret, and concern for Sister Ruoxi and disappointment in Brother Qi!" ”
it! is worthy of being a good friend, he can taste so many emotions between the lines, when did Xiao Yan become so powerful? But when you think about it, it's not surprising that they make eye contact and talk all the time.
"Don't make trouble, I just asked His Majesty for marriage now, if I provoke Ruoxi again and win over the Marquis of Zhongyong, what does my father think of me? What does the world think of me? What do you want our other brothers to think of me? Xiao Rui explained.
Xiao Yan caught the meaning of Xiao Rui's words, and said in surprise: "I'll just say, Seventh Brother is so greedy for money and lustful, how can he let Sister Ruoxi go?" ”
Xiao Rui glared at him and scolded, "Get out!" ”
Xiao Yan pinched his fingers and calculated: "Champion Hou, Zhongyong Hou, Shoufu Lord, Song Shilang, Cui Shilang, Guo Shilang... Hey, Brother Seven, you're so good now! Who can stop the invincible, and becoming the prince is just around the corner! ”
Xiao Rui said angrily: "I feel like you're more excited than me?" Who said that if you are powerful, you will definitely become a prince? Becoming a prince once and for all? ”
Xiao Yan said seriously: "The second brother is sad, I have already taken the initiative to give up." Among the remaining people, King Xiao Lie of Jin, King Xiao Ze of Wu, King Xiao Feng of Duan, oh, and King Jing Xiao Jing, he just forget it. Among the eldest brother, third brother and fourth brother, I feel that the third brother can compete with you, but he must not be your opponent! ”
Xiao Rui smiled, is it really as simple as Xiao Yan said?
is still the same sentence, there are big fish hidden in troubled waters, and masters like to hide clumsy, and only fools will show off. And with Xiao Rui's in-depth investigation, the hidden forces in the shadows of Kyoto slowly surfaced.
sent Xiao Yan away, and Xiao Rui invited Guo Jia and Jia Xu.
"Calculate the time, Yang Yuji should have arrived at Lanling Mansion!" Xiao Rui said.
A few days ago, Xiao Rui missed Xiao Qingqing a little, so he sent Yang Youji to Lanling.
Moreover, Xiao Qingqing was sent back to the ancestral land of Lanling by King Ruyang, and to himself and externally, he claimed that he was worshipping Buddha for his mother, which is unpredictable.
In addition, Xiao Rui had long suspected that King Ruyang had something to do with the assassin who assassinated him at that time, and after the trial, he also found that he had a problem, so he asked Yang Youji to go to Lanling to check and check, and it was best to see Xiao Qingqing.
When Xiao Rui and Guo Jia inspected the state capital, Jia Xu was not idle, and sent Lu Xian to investigate King Ruyang, but unfortunately the other party was vigilant and did not find any reliable evidence.
Guo Jia and Jia Xu nodded, and Jia Xu said: "The Lord of Lanling must know something, otherwise he will not be sent back to the ancestral land by the King of Ruyang." In addition, the king of Ruyang hides relatively deeply, after all, if he doesn't hide deeply, how can he hide it from His Majesty's ears and eyes? ”
Guo Jia said: "What is the conspiracy of King Ruyang, this is a top priority that needs to be figured out. ”
"You say, will the king of Ruyang want to seek to usurp the throne?" Xiao Rui has obviously watched too many TV series, and his ideas are quite amazing.
Jia Xu and Guo Jia glanced at each other, but frowned and shook their heads.
"Although the King of Ruyang is one of the four county kings, and he also has the false name of the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, but without the tiger talisman, he can't dispatch troops at all! And even if there is a soldier, who will follow him to rebel if he is not trained by himself! So how did he plot to usurp the throne? Jia Xu said.
Xiao Rui said again: "Could that be a spy of the enemy country?" Just like Han Xing, the king of Pingnan in Yan Kingdom, turned out to be a chess piece sent to Yan Kingdom by my maternal grandmother! ”
Guo Jia said: "This is possible, but everything has a cause and effect, if he colludes with foreign enemies, then he must have something to ask for, but the king of Ruyang is a smart man, he only has one daughter, and he has become the king of the county, and then what is there to ask for in addition to the throne?" So I can't figure out what he was asking for. ”
Xiao Rui nodded and said, "Then let Lu Xian continue to stare at it, and pay attention to Yang Yuji's reply." Tomorrow, the embassy of Qi will come, and my uncle, I don't know what role to play, so the two gentlemen will come with me to welcome guests. ”
"Yes!" The two of them stood up and replied.
In the afternoon, after Xiao Rui had a meal, the will of the palace came.
It turned out that His Majesty's will to give marriage came down, and Qin gave Xiao Rui the marriage to Zhuge Liuying and Li Ruoxue on March 15 next year. At the same time, the will to give marriage also went to the mansion of the champion Hou and Li Mingchong.
The marriage is finalized, and Xiao Rui can be regarded as a prospective groom.
What Xiao Rui didn't expect was that he had just received the order to send off the eunuchs, but suddenly received an invitation letter from the Chu Palace.
The content of the invitation letter is very simple, the king of Chu set up a dinner party, invited Xiao Rui to come over the house for a talk, and there were important matters to discuss.
The person who sent the invitation letter was the steward of the Chu Palace, and he said that it was written by the King of Chu himself, and he must ask His Royal Highness King Xian to come in person.
Xiao Rui hesitated for a moment, and couldn't guess what conspiracy Xiao Yiheng was playing, could it be the Hongmen Banquet?
For Xiao Rui, it doesn't matter if he goes or not, but Xiao Rui still wants to see what tricks he plays, so he agreed.
For the sake of safety, Xiao Rui brought Li Yuanfang and Dian Wei.
At the beginning of the night light, Xiao Rui came to the palace of the king of Chu by carriage.
In front of the palace of the king of Chu, compared with the prosperity and atmosphere of the past, it suddenly seemed depressed.
The steward directly invited Xiao Rui into the house, and when he came to the living room, he saw Xiao Yiheng drinking alone.
I saw that he was not properly dressed, his long hair was scattered, and he was sitting here alone drinking stuffy wine, looking dashing. A person who used to be high-spirited suddenly suffered a blow and became like this.
"Second brother!" Xiao Rui arched his hand and shouted.
King Chu put down the wine jug, raised his head and looked at Xiao Rui, his drunken eyes were suddenly filled with anger, and he roared: "King Xian! ”
Seeing him like this, Xiao Rui asked, "Did the King of Chu invite me here just to vent his inner anger?" If that's the case, then my brother thinks highly of you! ”
The King of Chu was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Do you think that if you overthrow my grandfather and snatch the support of the Li family, you will be able to defeat me?" Dream! I am still the son of my father, and my mother is the queen mother of a country! ”
Xiao Rui nodded, not wanting to argue with him.
When the white tiger waits to return to Beijing and the Zhou family collapses, even the queen will be implicated to a certain extent, and now Xiao Yiheng doesn't know that he is standing on the cliff at all, and he thinks that he is very bullish, and he yells when he is terminally ill, don't stop me, I can still be hi.
At this time, Xiao Yiheng said again: "Looking at the powerful people in the world, which person and family has no sins? This time, you caught the evidence of my grandfather's crimes, so I can bring him down, although I am angry, but I don't hate you! I hate someone else! ”
In the end, Xiao Yiheng's eyes were full of anger and anger.
"Do you hate Eighth Brother?" Xiao Rui asked.
"That's right! Xiao Jingqi's heart is vicious, let me make a fool of me, ruin my reputation, and become the laughing stock of the people, if I don't take revenge, how can my heart be stable? Xiao Yiheng gritted his teeth.
Xiao Rui raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "The second brother said that there is something important to discuss, could it be that he wants to take revenge?" Let me help you deal with King Jing? ”
"The seventh brother is worthy of being the seventh brother, he is extremely smart, and he can guess it! Isn't Xiao Jing extravagant to be the crown prince? I'm going to make him never get it! Xiao Yiheng said viciously.
Xiao Rui asked rhetorically: "Did the second brother find the wrong person?" I hurt your grandfather, and you want to cooperate with me in turn? And why do I have to deal with the eighth brother, and why do I want to help you take revenge! ”
Xiao Yiheng said: "Your goal is the crown prince, and any prince is your enemy!" Also, if you promise me, I can tell you a secret! A secret that will make your heart flutter! ”
"What's the secret?" Xiao Rui asked.
Xiao Yiheng smiled mysteriously and said, "It is said that your mother Concubine Rong died of illness, but is the truth true?" I know a person who is probably related to the death of your mother! ”
Xiao Rui immediately sat up straight, his face filled with coldness.
"Don't look at me like that, what I say is true, if it's false, you won't die well! How's the secret? Xiao Yiheng ate Xiao Rui.
Although Xiao Rui learned the mystery of his mother's death from Emperor Xia, Ye Qianying, and Bai Suzhen, it was Emperor Zhao who secretly commanded people to give chronic poison in order to extinguish his mouth, a little bit of poison, and finally died of medicine and stone, but Emperor Zhao could not do it himself, and it must be borrowed from the hands of others.
Zen Master Jingxiu, who was killed, was once the bodyguard of his mother's concubine, in addition to him, there must be other people involved, and even a mastermind who colluded with Emperor Zhao was hidden in this harem!
Xiao Rui has suspected Empress Zhou Xiangyun, the imperial concubine Lin Yuer, the deceased Empress Dowager Xiaoshen, and even other concubines, but there is no evidence just suspicion, what can be done?
I believe that even His Majesty is suspicious, and he can't kill all the harem concubines.
Now Xiao Yiheng actually knows some insiders...
"Good! I can promise you to deal with King Jing with you. It's just that how can I believe that the secret you say is true? What if you're taking advantage of me? Xiao Rui asked rhetorically.
Xiao Yiheng took a sip of wine and said, "I can swear!" In addition, if Xiao Jing is ruined, it will also be good for you, and you have one less opponent, why not do it? ”
Xiao Rui nodded and asked, "Okay, then that's how it is." Now can you tell us how you plan to deal with Xiao Jing? How can I help you? ”
"I have my own plan, and I will explain it to you then." Xiao Yiheng smiled gloomily, looking like he wanted to deal with Xiao Jing.
Xiao Rui said: "That's good! Then I'll wait for good news! Leave! ”
With that, Xiao Rui turned around and left.
Who knows, when leaving the Chu Palace, he suddenly saw the carriage of the Li Mansion stopped, and Li Xiu'er was slowly getting down from the carriage.
