() Gu Chen's eyes flashed, and he said very loyally: "The minister doesn't dare to assert anything." ”

"Look at the way you collided with the prince just now, what else do you dare not assert." The emperor snorted, but he was not angry, "Okay, I don't need you here, let's go with you." ”

Gu Chen answered, and went out with his fists clenched.

At night, Lanxi Palace.

Qin Niang lay on the wide bed, only to feel that the night was terriblely quiet.

Suddenly, the window was pushed open from the outside, and a black shadow rolled in, Qin Niang mentioned it in her heart, sat up with the quilt, staring at the black shadow with her eyes, and didn't dare to make a sound.

"Qin'er~" A familiar voice sounded.

Qin Niang's eyes widened, looking at the figure who was getting closer and closer to her, and said in a low voice: "Why do you even dare to climb the palace wall, so many internal guards, so many secret guard masters, you don't want to die." ”

Qin Niang grabbed his shirt and beat him indiscriminately.

However, in his opinion, her strength is just tickling.

"Don't say it's the palace wall, even if it's the underworld of Lord Yama, I will not make a mistake, who let you be there." Gu Chen grabbed her little fist, sat on the edge of the bed, and looked at her face fixedly by the moonlight, "Where did you and Song Huai go today?" ”

Qin Niang said: "He probably wanted to do something unseemly, so he didn't take me later, and I stayed in the palace for most of the day." ”

Gu Chen let out an "oh", and he was not very surprised, after all, in Song Huai's opinion, Qin Niang did not have him in his heart, so he would never dare to show any flaws in front of Qin Niang.

"If my inference is right, the people under Song Huai's hands must have done a lot of things like embezzlement and wealth, this northwest border is afraid that it is small, and there must be such things in the southwest." Gu Chen said, "He even indulges in the greed of the people below for his military salary, not to mention the people on the side, if I hadn't sent someone to quietly send a letter to Cheng Anhou in advance to let him enter the palace to fight for this errand to go to the northwest to pacify, I am afraid that it will fall into the hands of Song Huai." ”

Once Song Huai went to the northwest, then he alone had the final say.

If he said that General Soldier Hu was unwilling to be a small chief soldier, subject to the imperial court, wanted to occupy the mountain as the king, and would be crowned as the prime minister in the future, and the military salary would be paid to the soldiers every month, it was they who were too greedy and not satisfied, so they launched a mutiny with General Hu Bing.

When the time comes, he just killed Hu Zongbing, and then came back to tell the emperor that Hu Zongbing resisted at that time, and the sword and arrow had no eyes in the melee, and Hu Zongbing died, and then threw all the black pots on Hu Zongbing, and finally appeased those rebel soldiers, saying that they were deceived by Hu Zongbing, and those who did not know were not guilty.

At that time, the matter was a foregone conclusion, and he had the final say on the black and white alone, and he had a reputation for appeasing and meritorious.

"That Mr. Hu probably endured this action for a long time, anyway, the report said that he would not be paid for half a year, I think this is polite, if it is really only a short half a year, how could Mr. Hu not think of a way to solve the problem? Or, send a cronie back to Beijing to inquire, but for so many years, no one has reacted to the lack of food and salary in the northwest, which can only show that either the people sent back to the capital encountered obstacles on the way, or the mutiny of General Hu Bing may not be true, but it was just deliberately made to attract the attention of the imperial court. Qin Niang pondered.

Gu Chen stretched out one

A finger tapped the tip of her nose and said dotingly: "My wife is smart." ”

Qin Niang tilted her head and glanced at him, and asked, "Could this be the bureau you set up?" ”

Gu Chen took advantage of the situation and rubbed on the bed, lay down with her in his arms, and adjusted a comfortable posture before he said lightly: "I just found out that there are some problems with military salaries and salaries over the years, and the disaster relief funds in those states have shrunk a little over the years, and my people also found out that Qian Shankun actually has a son who is outcast." ”

It stands to reason that Qian Shankun and his son Qian Zhongliang are dead, the men of the Qian family have been sent to the army, and the women have entered the slave register, and none of them should be spared, and when copying the Qian family, Dali Temple has repeatedly checked, according to the number of greedy ink recorded in his account book, far more than those copied from his home.

But they almost rummaged through the Qian family, and dug three feet into the ground and found no remaining property.

At that time, it was inferred that there were still people behind Qian Shankun, and most of the property should be supplied to the big man behind him, but they couldn't find out who the big man behind him was for a while.

At that time, I still doubted whether it was King Ling, but now it seems that King Ling is indeed hiding his strength, but he does not dare to be so blatantly greedy.

"That guy surnamed Qian actually has a son? Where is it? How old is it? Isn't it the same as King Ling? People are cunning rabbits, and they are all cunning rabbits one by one! Qin Niang sighed, this is no one, could it be that they have already thought of a way out before doing bad things, and when the East Window incident happens, at least they can keep a trace of their blood.

"You can't imagine who that son of his." Gu Chen looked at her mysteriously and said.

Qin Niang looked at him for a while: "I also recognize this person?" ”

Gu Chen nodded, playing with her hair.

Qin Niang's curiosity was instantly aroused by him, and she grabbed his hand that ruffled her hair from time to time and asked, "Who is it?" ”

Gu Chen chuckled lightly and pinched her face: "Wasn't you curious before?" ”

At that time, as long as he sold half a coffin, she immediately turned around and left, which was really ruthless.

It's much more real now.

"If you don't say it, if you don't say it, get out quickly." Qin Niang grabbed the placket of his clothes and shook it vigorously, "Hurry up and say, who is it?" ”

I hate this the most, I hung up people's appetites, and then I didn't say anything for a long time, just watched her anxious.

It's so annoying.

"Okay, okay, I said okay." Gu Chen grabbed her hand, quickly put it to his lips and kissed it, and said without hesitation, "You are much more vivid now than before." ”

This is the Yang Qinyan he first knew.

Qin Niang was stunned for a moment, it seems, it seems, it seems, it is true.

Since she entered the palace and couldn't see him every day, she couldn't suppress her thoughts about him anymore, and she couldn't pretend not to care, she knew that she was still like in her previous life, deeply in love with this man in her eyes.

When they finally met, her hungry heart could no longer be controlled, and unconsciously revealed the little daughter posture of the first love.

"Ahem, don't keep looking at me like that, in the middle palace here, you'd better not do anything." Qin Niang looked away and reminded with a dry cough.

Gu Chen

Turned her face and smiled: "What are you thinking in your head!" Am I such a beastly man? ”

Even if he can't help it, he knows that this is in the palace, and Song Huai's main hall is next to it, if it is discovered by his people, then the husband and wife will not have to sing at all.

"You don't say I slept." Qin Niang was uncomfortable with him, his eyes were too hot, and she couldn't stand it.

"Alright, I said no." Gu Chen pinched her face and said word by word, "That person is Qi Shangshu." ”

Qin Niang was stunned at first, then her eyes widened, and she almost didn't exclaim: "You, you're not mistaken?" ”

Qi Shangshu and Qian Shankun don't look alike, these two people don't look like father and son.

"There's certainly nothing wrong with that." Gu Chen smiled with confidence, "Have you forgotten that I have twelve secret guards under me?" Each of them has its own specialty, and they have never made a mistake in detecting information. ”

Qin Niang opened her mouth, and she was really shocked that she didn't make a sound for a long time.

"He looks like his mother, so naturally others won't suspect him on Qian Shankun." Gu Chen said, "But his son is different from the situation of King Ling, King Ling secretly gave birth to a son in order to retain a trace of blood, and this Qian Shankun and his son are of course all the way, there were many women when he was young, Qi Shangshu's mother is naturally a drop in his thousands of dew love, as for why he didn't let Qi Shangshu recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, it is unknown, but Qian Shankun likes this son very much, and many things are handed over to him to do, and even intends to train him to be a successor." ”

It's just that before this successor could show his edge, Qian Shankun capsized, so there is naturally no need for his unknown son to be made public, so as not to cause trouble to his son.

Qin Niang heard a shocking gossip today, and she couldn't help but want to go out of the palace to find Fang Yuanyuan.

It's a pity that without Song Huai's permission, she can't go out of the palace.

"Qian Shankun's methods Qi Shangshu has basically learned, and before that, he was just a small head of the military department, if Song Huai didn't promote him, who knew who Qi Hang was?" Gu Chen sneered, "However, this time, I want Song Huai to cut off even this last arm." ”

Qin Niang shrank into the quilt, only revealing half of her face to him, and said with bright eyes: "Knowing such a big secret, I think I won't be able to sleep tonight." ”

Gu Chen stretched out his hand and hugged her into his arms, rubbed the top of her hair with his chin and said, "Sleep, I'll leave when you fall asleep." ”

Although Gu Chen is the commander of the close guards in charge of Emperor An, he does not live in the palace, so he really avoided all the masters of Ouchi to climb over the wall and enter the hospital, and he had to take advantage of the night to quickly climb out of the wall for a while, otherwise, if he was discovered and reported to the emperor, he would not dare to do anything, I was afraid that he would be attacked by Song Huai with ill intentions.

Qin Niang closed her eyes and nestled in his arms to sleep with peace of mind.

At this time, something seemed to flash outside the window, and Gu Chen looked outside vigilantly.

Qin Niang keenly sensed that something was wrong with him, opened her eyes again, and asked in a suppressed voice, "What's wrong?" ”

Gu Chen patted her shoulder and said, "You sleep first, I'll go out and have a look, you don't have to wait for me." ”
