Chapter 686: Zhenbei Hou
Zhan Ge frowned slightly, listening to Qi Yan's eloquent words, the scope of the man in black was too large, and he had no clue.
"Leave that alone, at least we already know who is behind it, so we can be careful."
Yan Wushuang understood his entanglement, and stepped forward to comfort him, Qi Yan had just recovered his memory, and it was difficult to think too much for a while, and it was not good for his body.
He nodded, and asked Qi Yanqiuruo to go back to rest, he was tired for so many days, physically and mentally exhausted, and he would go to court tomorrow, I don't know if there will be any bloody rain.
Yan Wushuang has not slept very well, and she woke up when Zhan Ge moved slightly, so she simply got up to help him sort out his clothes.
"No matter what those people say, don't get angry, or you'll really get them the handle."
She still knows that the officials in the court are all top afterthoughts, and she always has to tell them their merits through their mouths.
Zhan Ge has been reined in a lot these days, but it doesn't mean that he is a good-tempered person, in case of an argument, he didn't take care of it, and it really made them take advantage of the loophole.
Zhan Ge gently scratched her nose and said softly: "Don't worry, I know in my heart, I was worried that I didn't sleep well all night last night, so let's go now." ”
Before leaving, he also specially told the housekeeper not to disturb her and let her sleep until she woke up naturally.
Before the early dynasty began, the ministers walked towards the main hall in a sparse manner, thinking that everyone was a little farther away from the battle than they had used to before.
Zhan Ge didn't care at all, and even ended up idle.
In the days when the emperor was kidnapped, there was a lot of backlog, and since he came back, in addition to recuperating his body, he has been staying in the study, and there is no major event in the court, but he quarrels every day, which is quite a headache.
"If there's nothing to do today, let's retreat." The emperor rubbed his temples, and the waiter on the side saw that his face was not very good, so he hurriedly looked down to make them more interesting.
But everyone should not be able to see it, and soon someone came out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has a book." ”
"Say."
"Before the king went out with the emperor side by side, he put the emperor in fire and water, and the ministers suspected that his heart could be punished, and he must be strictly investigated and punished."
A gray-haired minister came out of the ranks, afraid that he would not be able to do it alone, so he specially called others.
Many people echoed it, Zhan Ge didn't say a word, Quan Dang couldn't hear it, and the emperor's face was as heavy as the bottom of a pot.
"The king side by side is silent, is he already empty-hearted? The emperor didn't have an accident this time, so does the prince give everyone an explanation. ”
They regarded Zhan Ge's silence as a weakness of heart, and they became more and more inch-inch.
Zhan Ge's hand hidden in his sleeve was clenched into a fist, and Yan Wushuang reminded him that he couldn't be tricked, so he could only sneer and sarcastically: "If you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse." ”
"You! The prince still wants to quibble when the matter is approaching, it is really powerful, the emperor must be aware of everything. The old minister's face was so angry that he suddenly fell to his knees, as if he was being bullied.
The emperor felt that the green tendons on his forehead were beating, and these people were still noisy here.
"Shut up to me, do you know better than I do?" The emperor slapped the dragon chair violently, and the hall was silent for an instant.
"The prince tried his best to save me, but when it came to your mouth, he became a ghost, what? Do you think that a touch of your mouth can make me believe you, who knows who has a ghost in his heart? ”
The emperor's position is self-evident, Zhan Ge must be protected, and everyone is not stupid, so they will not fight against the emperor at this time.
Even the old ministers who spoke out at the beginning silently returned to the hundred officials, completely pretending that they did not exist.
"Okay, I know this matter in my heart, scatter the dynasty, I don't want to hear any more messages about the side by side king."
Zhan Ge took a deep breath, and suddenly felt a little relaxed, the emperor spoke, no one dared not listen, and it also made these people reassess the status of the palace in the emperor's mind.
When he was about to go to the next court, the personal attendants around the emperor stopped Zhan Ge in front of hundreds of civil and military officials.
"The prince is here, please, the emperor has something important to look for you."
He didn't ask in detail, followed the eunuch to the study, the palace people had already retreated, and the emperor was the only one.
"Sit, thanks to you this time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." If the king of a country dies at the hands of the kidnappers, the eternal kingdom will really be in chaos.
"I don't know why the emperor called me over this time?" Zhan Ge didn't want to discuss this topic anymore, and it was enough to be able to explain it to him in the court today.
"There is new information from the Ministry of Supervision about this kidnapping."
Zhan Ge's eyes narrowed, and the three words of the man in black instantly popped up in his mind, he remained silent, waiting for the emperor to speak again,
"The Ministry of Supervision secretly came to report, this time it may be related to Zhenbei Hou, and it may even be planned by him."
"Zhenbei Hou? He wasn't so focused in the backyard that he still had such a mind. ”
The Marquis of Zhenbei is also a famous family in the capital, but there has been no war for many years, and his family has gradually moved away from everyone's field of vision.
He remembered that the current Marquis of Zhenbei was completely a gentleman, with countless wives and concubines in the backyard, not like an ambitious man. said that he kidnapped the emperor, he would never have imagined it.
"Maybe it's just the surface, knowing the face but not the heart, everything has to be carefully checked to reach a conclusion." The emperor said leisurely with one hand behind his back.
Qiu Ruo, who seems to be pitiful and weak, actually joined forces with the kidnappers, so why wouldn't Zhenbeihou be acting.
He doesn't look at people at face value anymore, and the price he pays is too high every time.
"Anyway, Zhenbei Hou is staring at it more, if it has nothing to do with him, it's best, if it's really him...... I am free to arrange. ”
"The minister will definitely live up to the emperor's expectations."
Since the emperor told him, he naturally handed over this matter to him, and sighed in his heart that the emperor had finally grown up, and the burden on his body could be much easier.
Zhan Ge did not delay, he came out of the palace and went directly to visit the Marquis of Zhenbei, his house was close to the palace, but he did not waste too much time.
Because there was no post, Zhan Ge came suddenly, and the porter was not prepared for a while, and welcomed people in in a cramped and uneasy manner.
"Lord Wang, you wait here first, and the little one will go and invite Master Hou to come over."
The subordinates did not have the master's order, so they could only serve Zhan Ge with trepidation, he looked around left and right, except for the Hou Mansion was a little more gorgeous than the people next to him, the rest were not much different.
"Master Hou, the king is waiting in the front hall." The subordinate trembled and stood outside the door and said, trying not to listen to the movement inside the door,
The Marquis of Zhenbei hugged the charming concubine with one hand, and his face was red: "Go, go, don't disturb my Yaxing, side by side with the king, how can there be a beauty important." ”
Although the woman in his arms was happy in his heart, she still pretended to be on the surface.
"Master Hou, it's important to get down to business, what if the prince is looking for you in an emergency, as long as Master Hou wants someone to accompany him, people can do it at any time."
"Oh yo, this little mouth is sweet, how can we be willing to go, it's just a prince, just say I have something, let him wait."
He spoke with the smell of alcohol, and he didn't know if he really looked down on Zhan Ge or if he was drunk and unintentional.
The subordinates waiting outside complained bitterly, and they definitely didn't dare to tell Zhan Ge what they said, otherwise if they didn't wait for the Hou Ye, the prince would kill him first.
"Wang, Wangye, Hou Ye is in a bit of a hurry, please wait here for a while, this is the latest tea harvested, you can taste it."
The housekeeper was covered in sweat and stammered to deal with the battle, hoping that his marquis would wake up sooner and not let him risk killing his head.
But Zhenbeihou seemed to have completely forgotten that Zhan Ge was waiting for him, and fell completely drunk in Rouxiang.
When he remembered that Zhan Ge had already drunk three cups of tea outside, and seeing that he was late and disheveled, he couldn't help but be sarcastic: "What the hell is a beauty, Hou Ye has even forgotten the time." ”
Zhenbei Hou's eyes widened, and he was instantly unhappy: "Beauty naturally needs to accompany more." I don't know what the prince is doing here. ”
He sat casually in the first place, with a perfunctory attitude, obviously to protect the concubine.
"It's not a big deal, but it's just a matter of coming to visit Hou Ye, it seems that Hou Ye doesn't seem to be very convenient, so don't bother anymore and say goodbye."
The Marquis of Zhenbei was so drunk that he must not have been able to get useful information out of his mouth, but it was a pity that he waited here for a long time.
Don't let him send it, just leave, the clay man still has three points of anger, not to mention Zhan Ge, his lips were pursed, and he didn't relax a little until the palace.
"How? No one in the court today embarrass you. When Yan Wushuang heard him coming back, he immediately went to the front hall to meet him.
Zhan Ge had already returned at this time in the past, but today was so late, no wonder she was worried.
Zhan Ge subconsciously shook his head, it had been solved anyway, there was no need to say it to make her unhappy.
"There was something else going on today."
"Oh? Let's talk about it. ”
Zhan Ge talked about the kidnapping and the matter of Zhenbei Hou, Yan Wushuang touched his chin and said, "If this matter is really related to him, then his purpose is definitely not pure." ”
He nodded, but there was nothing to gain from going there today, and as soon as he arrived, Zhenbei Hou was drunk, which seemed to be a bit too much of a coincidence.
"I'll go and see it again in the evening, I always feel that Zhenbeihou is a little strange today." Zhan Ge's suspicions were not unreasonable, everything had to wait until he went to see it again.
In the evening, Zhan Ge changed into his night clothes and ran in the direction of Zhenbei Hou's Mansion, and during the day he found that the layout of Zhenbei Hou was the same as that of an ordinary aristocratic house, so he could quickly find the direction of the bedroom.
There was no one there, so Zhan Ge could only look for it in the study, which was not brightly lit, and there were people inside.
He didn't dare to get too close, squatted under the window and listened to the sound inside, but fortunately it was quite loud and not too difficult to listen.
"The matter has been handed over to you, and I hope you can give me a good answer for the rest."
"The subordinates will not disappoint the master."
As soon as a few voices fell, Zhan Ge hid in a corner and watched those people go out of the study.
Why did Zhenbei Hou send so many people? Could it be that the goal is the emperor?
Zhan Ge had a lot of stories in his mind, and he had to keep an eye on the direction in which the gang had left.
He is sending these people out now, it must have something to do with the emperor.
