Chapter 56: Drunk Sleeps in the Official's Room
With the help of Zheng Guoxian's favored ministers, Sima Saizhong and Lang Zhongling, who is also his father-in-law Yongfu, Gongzi Ji Tu chose to usurp the throne on the day of Lichun and was named Duke Li.
In the court, those who dared to stand up and speak for Zheng Zhaogong were immediately dragged out and beheaded by Yongfu's people to show the public, in order to set an example, all of them were silent, no one dared to object, seeing that the general trend had gone, Zheng Zhaogong had no choice but to take advantage of the chaos.
Fortunately, Ji Tunian and Zheng Zhaogong were brothers connected to their bloodlines after all, and they did not kill them all.
And Zheng Zhaogong also found a problem in the process of escaping, in the Praetorian Guard, there is such a team that is actually secretly protecting him, and it can even be said that it is helping him escape, so that he was cowardly and cowardly to escape smoothly, and finally settled to defend the country.
He secretly wondered in his heart: who would dare to help him secretly at such a time?
Zheng Li Gong Ji Tu new king ascended the throne, excited, the first thing that came to mind is to have long-term stability, although over the years have also raised a lot of guests, but in the court also need to win people's hearts, stabilize their own power, he knows in his heart, after all, there are not a few people who have the heart of opposition.
Sai Zhong is Zheng Zhuanggong's favorite minister during his reign, because he is a veteran of the first dynasty and a high power, so he is deeply respected by the ministers, and Zheng Ligong does not dare to regret it easily, but from the heart, Ji Tu is very jealous of Sai Zhong's monopoly on the dictatorship of the army, and is extremely dissatisfied, and must find ways to gradually weaken his power, and even treat him as a confidant.
Therefore, Ji Tu thought of quickly encircling another person, that is, Yongfu's eldest son, his eldest brother Yongjiao, this person belongs to a simple-minded, well-developed limbs, brave and unscrupulous reckless man, as long as he gives some benefits, he will do whatever others ask him to do, Ji Tu took a fancy to him and felt that it was useful.
However, there are many reckless people in the world, and there is a more important point why he was selected.
That is, it just so happens that Yongjie is the son-in-law of the priest, as the saying goes, the living are afraid of water, and the acquaintances are afraid of ghosts, and it is precisely because of his relationship with the priest that it has more meaning to win over.
As his eldest brother, Ji Tu still understands that Yongjie is also a drunkard, which is enough to prove from his salivating eyes when he peeks at Zheng Ji.
As long as you find the weakness of human nature, it is not difficult to win over someone.
This night, Ji Tu and Zheng Ji pushed the cup and changed the lamp, you and me, the two drank a glass of wine, in order to help the wine, Zheng Ji also got up and sang and danced.
After three rounds of drinking, Zheng Ji was obviously a little overwhelmed, her face was flushed, but she suddenly felt abdominal pain, so she got up and prepared to go to the official room.
Ji suddenly looked drunk and hazy, and saw that Zheng Ji who stood up was like a willow blowing in the wind, so graceful and graceful, and even more delicate and cute, so he stretched out his hand and said with a big tongue: "Where is the beauty, don't let the widow stay alone in the empty room for too long!" ”
The rickety Zheng Ji leaned against the wall, smiled at Ji Tu with red eyes, and said coquettishly: "Don't be impatient, don't be impatient, Xiaoya will come when she goes!" ”
Seeing that Zheng Ji couldn't walk steadily, a slave and maid hurriedly came over and helped her all the way into the official room.
But Zheng Ji is gone.
Until she woke up the next morning, Zheng Ji only felt a splitting headache, her whole body was sore, her hands and feet were cold, but she couldn't remember what happened last night for a while, and she couldn't see anything in the darkness in front of her.
"Qiu Ping, Qiu Ju, why is there no light in the house?"
After calling a few times, no one responded, Zheng Ji wondered in her heart, this Qiu Ping Qiu Ju was the personal maid she brought from the Song Kingdom, and she has always acted very carefully, what happened today? Not only did they not light the lights, but they also called the no, what happened?
She closed her eyes and opened them again, and by the faint light that came in through the crack in the door, she gradually got used to it, and then she realized that she had fallen into the official room, and had curled up on the cold floor for the night.
How could I sleep here? Zheng Ji couldn't remember what happened for a while? I was stunned for a long time, and finally remembered what happened last night, and it seemed that I was drunk and slept in the official room for a night.
Zheng Ji suddenly muttered in her heart, why didn't anyone help her back to sleep? Then I remembered that I felt that I was a little embarrassed to let the slaves and maids follow when I was making love with Ji Tu, so I didn't bring them out, and they shouldn't have known about it at all.
Rubbing her unconscious legs, Zheng Ji stood up against the wall, but her legs and feet suddenly became numb, like several ants biting, she had to sit on the ground again, kneaded her legs and feet with her hands for a long time before gradually getting better, and then staggered to stand up against the wall again.
When she reached for the door, huh! can't pull it, pull it again, or don't move at all, Zheng Ji thought to herself: With her usual drinking strength, you won't be drunk like this after three glasses, and you can't even open the door?
Could it be that someone deliberately corrects himself? Who could it be?
A person jumped into Zheng Ji's mind, she is Ji Tu's wife? Who else but her?
Zheng Ji knew that Ji Tu's wife was Lang Zhongling Yongfu's daughter Yonglan, and he only had this one wife, although he had never seen Yonglan, presumably Ji Tu's relationship with her was not too good, otherwise why would Ji Tu prefer to leave his wife alone in the empty room and maintain this relationship with himself for so long?
It must be that Yonglan saw that her husband had been with other women for a long time, and she was snubbed and wanted to take revenge.
Thinking of this, the corners of Zheng Ji's lips rose, smiled contemptuously, raised her right foot, took off the clogs, and slammed them into the door with her hand, and the door of the official room was smashed with a "knock" sound.
Zheng Ji heard the sound of running footsteps outside the door, so she stopped slamming the door and hurriedly shouted at the crack in the door, "Is there anyone?" Anyone? Come and open the door to the main palace. ”
At this time, a palace person heard the movement and ran over, saw the sign hanging on the door "The official room is under repair", looked into the door again, and did not find anyone in the door, touched his head, turned around and prepared to leave.
Zheng Ji, who was looking out through the crack in the door, saw that he was leaving, and was so anxious that she hurriedly smashed the door with clogs again.
The figure outside the door turned back again, this time leaning his face against the crack in the door and looking in.
"What do you see, hurry up and open the door, which immoral thing did it, let Bengong catch it, don't peel off his skin!"
Zheng Ji put on clogs and kicked twice at the door of the official house, but the kick hurt and made her even more upset.
"Who's in there? Don't panic, don't panic, this is on, this is on. ”
The palace people outside said and pulled out the wooden bolt on the door, and when they saw that it was Zheng Ji, they hurriedly stood sideways.
"How could Madame be in there? The slave saw that there was a repair sign hanging on the door, and the door was inserted from the outside, so he didn't expect that there were people inside, and he asked Mrs. to punish him for neglecting his wife! ”
"Humph! Hongu will definitely find out! ”
Zheng Ji snatched the sign of "Under Renovation of the Official Room" from the hands of the palace people, was so angry that she threw it outward, but she didn't actually throw it far.
Zheng Ji vaguely remembered that last night she suddenly felt unbearable abdominal pain, and a servant girl helped her into the official room, and then she didn't know anything. In this way, there must be a problem in the wine, and there must be a problem with the servant girl who helped herself into the official room, it seems that there must be someone behind this matter, and if you find the servant girl for interrogation, the truth should be revealed.
