Chapter 859: Father-in-law Zheng's identity
Green Tao couldn't help nodding: "That's right!" This is what I went to the household department to check! It'sā"
She glanced at Su Huo and immediately changed her words: "It's true!" I've also sent someone over there, and Jasmine should be back soon. ā
"Then we'll wait!" Wen Qingzhu sat down.
But she felt that something was not right, Mrs. Zheng said that Gonggong Zheng was being used, so after she found out, she immediately sent out the medicine to kill the corpse eating insect powder.
If she did find out in advance, why didn't she just stop it?
What's more, Zheng Xu and He Wenru actually returned to Beijing at this time, and they happened to appear when she left.
It seems to be casual, but Wen Qingzhu knows Zheng Xu very well, he is a very cautious person.
What's more, the relationship between him and He Wenru is not suitable for disclosure now, isn't it better to be more cautious?
What is the reason why Zheng Xu and He Wenru must appear in front of her?
"Zheng family!" Wen Qingzhu remembered a detail, and Mrs. Zheng told her about the corpse eater very directly.
It's as if the corpse eaters aren't causing much of a problem.
Wen Qingzhu looked up at Su Huo: "The relationship between the Zheng family and you is not bad, do you know when Old Madam Zheng came back?" ā
"It's about two days before I ascended the throne, and I'm in a hurry to come back, is there any problem?" Su Huo began to wonder in his heart, could it be that the Zheng family was related to the Xiongnu spies.
Two days before the enthronement?
At that time, Gonggong Zheng's power had been withdrawn, and with the current status of the Zheng family, they could come back, but there was no need to dare so.
But what if Mrs. Zheng insisted on rushing back?
And just now, Mrs. Zheng affectionately called Gonggong Zheng Xiao Zhengzi.
In addition, she had previously confirmed that the Zheng family was the backer of Zheng Gonggong.
If it was really for the good of Gonggong Zheng, wouldn't the best way be to take him out of the palace?
After all, Empress Zheng is dead, the first emperor is dead, and Jiang Yuansheng will not return to Beijing.
There is no reason for Gonggong Zheng to stay in the palace at all, and he is a little different from other fathers-in-law, he is not very good at doing things, but because of the support of the Zheng family, he has always mixed well.
What is the reason why Gonggong Zheng must stay in the palace?
Wen Qingzhu was puzzled, and always felt that this was a very critical point.
Just when she couldn't find her way, someone brought a pastry, saying that someone had given it to her.
Wen Qingzhu frowned, the people who knew her here, in addition to Old Madam Zheng, would also have-
It's Zheng Xu!
She immediately opened the basket and saw that the pastry inside the basket was mare's milk cake.
"Mare's milk cake?" Wen Qingzhu looked puzzled again.
Su Huo saw it on the side, reached out and took a piece and sniffed it, and couldn't help asking, "Did you release Gonggong Zheng?" Why did he only send you a box of mare's milk cakes that he loved? ā
"You said it was sent by Gonggong Zheng?" Wen Qingzhu was stunned.
"Isn't it?" Su Huo frowned.
Wen Qingzhu took a deep breath: "Tell me, why do you think that this mare's milk cake was given by Gonggong Zheng?" ā
Su Huo put down the pastry in his hand and explained: "The taste of mare's milk cake is relatively strong, and few people in the capital like it, but Zheng Gonggong likes it very much, in fact, there are very few delicious mare's milk cakes, which are basically exclusively for Zheng Gonggong, even if ordinary people want to send pastries, he will also send you what you like." ā
"How do you know so much about Gonggong Zheng?" Wen Qingzhu listened to him in detail, and couldn't help but ask.
Su Huo smiled: "I grew up in the palace when I was a child, and I was very taken care of by Empress Zheng before, when Gonggong Zheng was still a little eunuch, and the things he liked were special, I was naturally impressed." ā
Wen Qingzhu reached out and took a piece of mare's milk cake, and took a bite gently, it was soft and glutinous, full of milky flavor, and a little too sweet.
It's not a taste that people in the Central Plains like.
"He's a Huns!" Wen Qingzhu stepped back!
Su Huo hurriedly asked: "Who are the Huns!" ā
Wen Qingzhu said in a daze: "Gonggong Zheng! ā
"Huh? He doesn't look like a Hun, does he? Although he is in the same size, he is indeed considered strong. Su Huo couldn't believe it.
But she couldn't hear anything else, just quietly looked at the mare's milk cake on the table.
This was sent by Zheng Xu, and he was pointing out the identity of Zheng Gonggong.
In that case, it all makes sense!
She immediately rushed to the Shen Criminal Division and saw Gonggong Zheng.
Wen Qingzhu also carried the basket of mare's milk cakes just now and placed them at the door of the cell.
Gonggong Zheng, who was resting on the bed, seemed to smell the fragrance and turned around to look.
Seeing that it was Wen Qingzhu, he immediately got up, ran to the door of the cell and knelt, and kept crying: "Princess! Please, spare the minions! The minions are really wronged! Minions really don't know anything! How the hell did those ghouls get in, the minions really don't have a clue! ā
As he spoke, he looked at the basket at the door of his cell.
The mare's milk cake had a strong smell that made him smell it as soon as he smelled it.
I thought to myself, since he brought his favorite pastries, it must have washed away his disgust!
Old Madam Zheng really protected him!
Seeing that he couldn't stop swallowing saliva, Wen Qingzhu couldn't help laughing: "Gonggong Zheng, do you know who gave me this mare's milk cake?" ā
"For the princess?" Gonggong Zheng was stunned, and he had a bad premonition in his heart.
I saw Wen Qingzhu looking at his eyes deeply: "The name Xiao Zhengzi was given by Mrs. Zheng, and it was the Zheng of the Zheng family, and it can be seen that she likes you very much and wants to protect you." "59 Stacks
"Yes, yes, the old lady originally regarded the slave as a member of the Zheng family, so she has been taking care of it all the time, if there is no old lady Zheng, the slave may not have died somewhere."
Gonggong Zheng's throat was a little dry, and he felt that his throat was itching.
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "Yes, Old Madam Zheng believes in you, but you have betrayed her trust." ā
"The minions don't! Not really! Gonggong Zheng couldn't stop shaking his head, but Wen Qingzhu's expression became colder and colder, and his whole heart hung up.
"No?" Wen Qingzhu curled the corners of his mouth, and used the Xiongnu dialect full of mockery, "If not, how could you hide Old Madam Zheng?" ā
Gonggong Zheng opened his mouth to speak, but he stopped abruptly, his eyes wide.
The hand that grasped the bars of the cell let go, and he kept stepping back, trembling and not daring to reply.
Seeing his reaction, Wen Qingzhu sighed heavily, resumed his Central Plains dialect, stared at him and said: "You are really a Huns, and you still understand Hun dialect, if I remember correctly, you entered the palace at the age of fifteen, and there are still a lot of injuries on your body, I heard that you were beaten by bandits, and now it seems that I am afraid that the Huns will be hunted down and killed." ā
Gonggong Zheng's eyes became bigger and bigger, and he retreated to the base of the wall, his face full of horror, and he didn't dare to meet Wen Qingzhu's eyes at all.
He was just trembling all over, clutching the stone wall with both hands, and blood was oozing from his nails, but he didn't even notice it.
Wen Qingzhu said lightly: "You really did the internal response of the Huns, if it wasn't for the palace's thoughtful planning this time, I'm afraid that you would have succeeded." ā
"The princess spares her life! Spare your life! Gonggong Zheng began to kneel down and kowtow, and his voice rang out.
After a while, his head was covered in blood, but he still didn't stop!
Wen Qingzhu heard him shouting and shouting, and changed his words: "If the princess wants to kill, she must listen to the respect!" Please don't tell the old lady! A minion is a cheap life! Broke his old man's heart! Beg the princess not to tell the old lady! ā
"Then you have thought that Old Madam Zheng is so old and rushes all the way back to the capital for you! But what about you? lied to her and didn't say it, and pulled the Zheng family into the water, this matter really needs to be investigated, the Zheng family is going to raid the house and destroy the door! ā
Wen Qingzhu was a little angry, Gonggong Zheng has been in the palace for so many years, he has always been supported by the Zheng family, and he has no ability, for the sake of the face of the former queen, others will also give face.
But soon she calmed down and asked quietly: "I only want to ask you one thing now, who are you, what does it have to do with Old Madam Zheng, and why does she protect you like this?" ā
Looking at his appearance, Wen Qingzhu tried to think about what he would have been like if he hadn't been castrated.
Black eyes and black hair, but the body is taller, the facial features are more three-dimensional, and the skin is whiter than that of ordinary eunuchs, but rough.
Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but think in his heart, if he looked closely.
Zheng Gonggong did have some Hun characteristics on his body, but because he was castrated, some of the characteristics disappeared.
"Slave, slave is ......" Gonggong Zheng suddenly held his head and began to be frightened, stammering incoherently.
Wen Qingzhu saw him like this, quietly waiting for his mood to stabilize.
Until the voice of green pottery came from outside: "Lord Hei stays, the princess is interrogating the prisoner inside." ā
"Well, the little man is waiting outside." Hei Jiren quickly answered her.
Wen Qingzhu looked sideways, she didn't have much time, and Jiang Yuanhan must have to do it.
She beckoned, Beidou appeared, directly split the iron lock with the Xuantie sword, and went in to knock Gonggong Zheng unconscious.
At Wen Qingzhu's signal, he quietly left here with Gonggong Zheng.
Wen Qingzhu walked to the door and looked at Hei Jiren who was waiting: "Lord Hei is really busy, I can't see you in this palace?" ā
"The princess forgives the sin, this time the emperor has something important, and the villain has spent more time. Now that the villain is back, what does the princess command, just say. ā
Hei Jiren bowed very widely, and he couldn't wait to fold his body into a right angle.
Wen Qingzhu just smiled lightly: "Since the emperor has orders, then this palace will not trouble Lord Hei, and the affairs of this palace will be found by others." ā
Hei Jiren's heart was shocked, did he believe him?
Wen Qingzhu left here with the green pottery, and Hei Jiren immediately turned around to send him off.
He slowly straightened up, looked at the man's back, and felt a chill in his heart.
It seems that the princess has already known all about the actions of the emperor.
So what happened next, did he want to do it?
When he went into the prison to take a look, he found that Gonggong Zheng was not there!
Hei Jiren turned his head and wanted to order his subordinates to chase after him, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly remembered that Wen Qingzhu was here just now!
That Gonggong Zheng must have been taken away by her.
It was getting dark, and the capital fell into silence.
However, there are still many hawkers with lanterns of different shapes hanging at the entrances of their shops.
Wen Qingzhu folded his black hood and stood at the corner of the alley, looking at the sparse lights on the street, as well as the men and women occasionally walking together, his heart was a little low.
Lu Tao knew what was on her mind and comforted: "It's almost Tanabata, if the prince escapes smoothly, he will definitely be able to receive the princess's letter." ā
"It's good to get it, it's okay if you don't receive it, I'll always go to him anyway." Wen Qingzhu lowered the brim of his hat, turned around and disappeared into the darkness, and the green pottery followed closely behind.
When he was about Mozi, Wen Qingzhu finally met Zheng Xu in the private room of Baiwei Building.
Seeing him again, Wen Qingzhu was very emotional.
Compared with before, Zheng Xu has really matured a lot.
"You've got it all done here?" Zheng Xu lowered his voice, in order to avoid having ears on the wall, he didn't need to be honored at all.
Wen Qingzhu comprehended, and pointed to a sack in the corner of the room: "It's done, but he won't tell me his identity, can you tell me?" ā
Zheng Xu hesitated silently for a while, and when he raised his eyes, he still told Wen Qingzhu.
"He is the son of the dead king of the Huns!"
"He-" Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but look back.
saw Zheng Xu's voice dim: "But it's also Aunt Tang's son." ā
Wen Qingzhu turned his head sharply and stared at Zheng Xu.
