Chapter 810: The Former Mustard
A moment later, Zhao Hongrun and Wen Qi came to the side hall. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
At the same time, he asked Zong Wei Mu Qing to go to the wine cellar in the mansion to get a jar of wine and let Wen Qi drink it freely, as an apology for teasing the latter with Zong Wei.
At first, Wen Qi gritted his teeth with hatred, but when he smelled the wine, he immediately gave up the insistence in his heart, so that Zhao Hongrun once again refreshed his understanding of this Mr. Wen.
may be because he was bored, so Zhao Hongrun drank two glasses with Wen Qi, during which he told Wen Qi the results of the investigation of Zhou Shangshu's case.
Unexpectedly, Wen Qi actually supported Wei Tianzi and supported the speedy conclusion of the case.
"Your Royal Highness King Su, why are you looking at me like this?" Perhaps thinking that Zhao Hongrun's eyes were a little strange, Wen Qi hurriedly explained: "The subordinates are not flattering to Your Majesty, but they just feel that Your Majesty has made the safest disposition." ”
Hearing this, Zhao Hongrun frowned, and said unhappily: "The dignified criminal department Shangshu was killed, but the father actually wanted to check it off, as if it had not happened, this is called the safest treatment?" ”
"Or else?" Holding the wine glass, Wen Qi asked with a smile: "Publicize this case to the public?" Wantonly arrest the remnants of the Xiao family that His Royal Highness King Su said? …… His Royal Highness King Su, don't forget, those remnants have infiltrated the imperial court, and the Criminal Department alone has arrested five people, two of whom are in the high position of Lang Guan, can you guarantee that among the six departments and twenty-four divisions of the imperial court, there will be no other remnants of the Xiao family? ”
"......" Zhao Hongrun was stunned, and then came to his senses.
"The subordinates knew that His Royal Highness King Su wanted to find the murderer of Zhou Shangshu, but the subordinates thought that this matter was urgent. Those remnants of the murderous party did not engrave the words I am a villain on their faces, and now that the clues have been broken, how can they be arrested? …… If the other party is in a hurry, and the guys lurking in the court on the other side deliberately catch some innocent ordinary people by mistake, and even frame some nobles, wouldn't it be even more chaotic when the time comes? Saying that, Wen Qi shook the wine glass in his hand and said lightly: "Therefore, it is better to close the case of Zhou Shangshu earlier." But the closure of this case doesn't mean that His Royal Highness King Su can't pursue this matter anymore, does it? According to the subordinates, His Majesty probably also means this, openly asking Dali Temple to close the case, and privately, handing over the matter to others. ”
…… Inner Chamberlain and Gong Guard?
Zhao Hongrun took a sip of wine and felt that Wen Qi's words were reasonable.
According to his understanding of his father, Wei Tianzi is not a person who will tolerate thieves, not to mention, these remnants of the Xiao family have also infiltrated the imperial court.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongrun was in a good mood, he felt that Wen Qi was right: since there are no clues, it is better to simply close the case of the murder of Shangshu Zhou Yan of the Criminal Department, and quickly settle the matter, anyway, the murderer has been determined, nine times out of ten it is those remnants of the Xiao family, and there is a chance to catch the murderer in the future.
"Not bad, not bad." Gently patted the table and praised Wen Qi twice, and Zhao Hongrun, who had become in a good mood, walked to the backyard.
Looking at the back of Zhao Hongrun's departure, Wen Qi shook his head slightly.
He can't deny that His Royal Highness King Su has an excellent character and is also very intelligent, but sometimes he will make some negligence in small things, just like the last time he was in the treasury of the Ministry of Officials, and at this time, some thoughtful and intelligent people are needed to make up for all kinds of small omissions in the overall situation for His Royal Highness King Su, such as him Wen Qi.
Anyway, I have offended too many officials in the court, and my career is basically useless, do you want to ......
Wen Qi pondered with a wine cup.
And just then, a scream rang in his ears.
"Ah——!!h
Wen Qi was startled, and subconsciously turned his head, but saw a certain green housekeeper rushing to the table in a few steps, looking at the wine jar with wide eyes, and then screamed: "Wen Qi, are you crazy? How dare you steal wine? Do you know that this wine is for our guests?! ”
"I ...... I didn't. Wen Qi, whose face was a little pale, hurriedly shook his head and denied: "This is an apology from His Royal Highness King Su." ”
"Apologies?" The chief steward of Lu'er stared at Wen Qi suspiciously, and asked, "Why did you apologize?" ”
"......" Wen Qi opened his mouth, his face flushed, and he couldn't speak.
How dare he tell the truth.
Seeing this, Lu'er narrowed her eyes, gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, you don't count stealing wine, you actually lie and deceive people?" …… I thought you had changed your way in the past two days, but I didn't expect you to be premeditated, no, it was deliberate, and it was not right. Anyway, you're mad at me! Come with me, if you don't finish chopping that pile of firewood for me today, my aunt and grandmother are not finished with you! ”
"Ah——!h
With a scream, Wen Qi was grabbed by the ears of a certain green steward.
Before being arrested, he looked at the jar of wine on the table with reluctance.
At the same time, Zhao Hongrun, who was walking towards the backyard, glanced back suspiciously.
"Wei Jiao, I seem to have heard someone's screams?"
"Yes?" Wei Jiao also looked back a few times, and said suspiciously, "Your Highness heard it wrong, right?" ”
"Oh." Zhao Hongrun was skeptical, and after shrugging his shoulders, he continued to walk towards the backyard.
When he came to Beiyuan, Zhao Hongrun saw Miss Su, Mi Jiang, Mi Rui, Una, Yang Tongue Apricot and other women talking and laughing with Princess Yulong in the garden.
"Ah, the husband is here." The sheep's tongue apricot eyes were the sharpest, and he was the first to see Zhao Hongrun, and hurriedly came to Zhao Hongrun with a little shyness, with a happy expression on his face.
"What are you talking about?"
Zhao Hongrun followed the thoughts of the sheep's tongue and came to the garden, his eyes swept over the women in the garden, and greeted them - except for Mi Jiang's stupid sister, this girl was still stuffing a lot of dried plums into her mouth, and Zhao Hongrun shook her head secretly.
"Sister, don't eat it." Mi Jiang quietly pulled her sister's sleeve, although she had long been used to it, she still felt quite embarrassed, but it was a pity that at this moment, Mi Rui only had the plate of dried plums in her eyes.
"The sisters are listening to the dispute between Her Royal Highness the Princess and Sister Una, about who is more skilled in riding." Miss Su replied softly.
Sisters...... Guys?
Glancing at Miss Su, who was full of gentle smiles, and then at Mi Jiang, who looked out of place, Zhao Hongrun felt that this word was really a little awkward.
"Una's riding skills, of course." Picking up a dried plum from the plate and throwing it into his mouth, Zhao Hongrun ignored the angry glare of a stupid girl who seemed to be protecting food, and said with a smile.
"Hee-hee!" Una was very happy to hear this, and jumped to Zhao Hongrun's side and grabbed the latter's arm.
However, Una was happy, which meant that a certain princess Her Royal Highness was unhappy, she snorted lightly, looked at Zhao Hongrun unhappily and said, "What do you know?" I'm pretty good at riding. ”
"Come on." Zhao Hongrun rolled his eyes, rubbed Una's hair, looked at Princess Yulong angrily and said, "You have only been practicing riding for a few days?" Una grew up on the Sanchuan grassland from childhood to adulthood, and her riding skills are not better than yours? ”
"Yikes!" Princess Yulong jumped up and said indignantly: "I won Uncle Wang!" ”
Zhao Hongrun naturally knew that the Uncle Wang in Princess Yulong's mouth was referring to Wang Qi, the head of the sect guard of his sixth uncle Zhao Yuanyan, and he rolled his eyes speechlessly and said: "Come on, Wang Qi, the head of the sect, that is the one who has obtained the qualification of a warrior in the Qingyang tribe, unless he has the heart to let you, it is impossible for you to win against Wang Qi in your life." ”
"Yikes!" Princess Yulong stomped her feet angrily and said angrily: "Hongrun, are you deliberately angry with me? ”
Zhao Hongrun grinned and said with a grin: "Who told you not to bring me a gift." ”
Hearing this, Princess Yulong glared at Zhao Hongrun with a puffed face, and then pretended to sneer and said: "Oh, Brother Hongrun is getting more and more terrible now, no wonder, oh, the hero of the two conquests of the Chu State, the commander of the 200,000 Wei army......"
"What do you want?" Zhao Hongrun asked with a smile.
I saw Princess Yulong glaring at Zhao Hongrun angrily, and suddenly smiled: "I told my stepmother that you bullied me!" ”
Hearing this, Zhao Hongrun's complexion fell, after all, the stepmother in Princess Yulong's mouth was referring to Concubine Shen Shu.
Sometimes, Zhao Hongrun really suspects that in the eyes of Shen Shufei, parents and children are not as good as adopted sons, and adopted sons are not as good as righteous daughters, and I don't know if Shen Shufei sympathizes with Princess Yulong's childhood, in short, she is exceptionally good to her. (Digression: His Royal Highness King Huan, who was in northern Xinjiang, sneezed violently.) )
"Don't you?" Zhao Hongrun said curtly.
To be honest, he is not stunned by others, but if it is Concubine Shen Shu, who he regards as his biological mother, he is still a little stunned in his heart.
"Know it's wrong?" Princess Yulong looked at Zhao Hongrun proudly, and snorted and said, "Then hurry up and coax the imperial sister and me, otherwise, I will go to the Ningxiang Palace to complain later." ”
Seeing this scene, all the girls smiled and avoided for the time being, even the expressionless Mi Jiang pulled her sister away, so as to save some face for Zhao Hongrun.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun had no choice but to say something good and make Princess Yulong happy.
No, Princess Yulong, who was coaxed to be happy, also took off a bone necklace from her neck and handed it to Zhao Hongrun.
"Well, a gift for you. …… The day before yesterday, you were so angry with me, I originally planned to keep it for myself. ”
Zhao Hongrun took the bone necklace, he knew that this thing was the most common ornament on the girls of the Sanchuan tribe, and on the Wei side, it was more mainly hand ornaments and headdresses.
"Keep it well, it took a lot of effort to make this necklace. …… Look here, there is also the words I carved by my own hand, given to Hongrun. Princess Yulong, who was still angry just now, pointed to the necklace and introduced it with great interest.
Although he was very moved in his heart, Zhao Hongrun's face showed disgust: "The words are so ugly. ”
"You!" Princess Yulong stomped her feet angrily: "Do you want it or not?!" ”
"Absolutely." Zhao Hongrun smiled triumphantly, and then, he hesitated for a moment, and said coldly: "Yulong, I saw He Xinxian today." ”
"Who?" Princess Yulong was stunned, looking a little puzzled, and after half a ring, she seemed to have just remembered something, and pouted and said, "It's him, ......" (to be continued.) )
