Chapter 3: The Mystery

Stolen?

What is written on the old man's note?

Xuzhou... Xuzhou...

Wei Ning stood in front of the window, unable to understand what he was thinking.

"Princess, subordinates are derelict in their duties, please punish the princess!" Ah Zhao knelt on the ground.

Wei Ning looked at the layers of palaces outside the attic, and muttered as if to himself: "Ah Zhao, it's been eleven years, you've been by my side for eleven years..."

"I don't blame you..."

Ah Zhao couldn't help but look up at her.

Wei Ning seemed to have a lot to say, but in the end, he calmed down. She waved her hand: "That's it, get up!"

"I have my own plans for the twist and turn, so I'll stop this matter! You don't have to look it up again. ”

"Yes."

Ah Zhao hid her figure, and she seemed to be the only one left in the bedroom.

Shengjing City.

Eat the whole restaurant.

At this moment, the restaurant is full of people, and the seats are full. Xiao Er'er was busy coming and going, sweating profusely, serving tea and pouring water.

Suddenly, I heard someone shouting: "I heard that Ji Xiang has solved the flood in Xuzhou, and he is about to return to Beijing!"

"Sure enough, he is the first son of Shikoku, but in a month, the flood has been cured, which is really gratifying!" Some people were amazed.

All of a sudden, everyone in the restaurant was full of praise.

But a man in blue shook his head and said in a loud voice: "If it weren't for Your Majesty's quick knife to cut through the mess when he discovered the disaster, the flood in Xuzhou would not have been dealt with so quickly."

A white-faced scholar looked puzzled, seeing that he was dressed in cloth and was full of energy, but his bearing was extraordinary, and he was not an ordinary person. Then he asked respectfully, "Sir, I don't know how to say this?"

"The floods in Xuzhou and the bursting of the Lijiang Dam have affected hundreds of people. If it weren't for His Majesty's immediate decision, he ordered all parts of the city to open its gates to accept refugees, distribute disaster relief money, and set up porridge sheds to give porridge. Ji Xiang will not take only one month to put the flood control in Xuzhou in order. ”

After hearing this, everyone in the restaurant couldn't help but nod yes at this moment.

But there was an abrupt voice mixed in, and the tone was quite contemptuous. "It's just a female streamer, and she can't get on the big stage. At the age of eight, Ji Xiang cracked the ancient chess game that no one in the world could solve for a hundred years, and at the age of twelve, the first emperor said that he had the talent to govern the world, and before the weak crown, he succeeded to the throne, and then the official to the phase. In this world, can An have someone to compare with him? ”

For a moment, the restaurant fell silent.

Ji Xiang is indeed such a person, who in this world can compare with him?

But the man scoffed. "I haven't heard such a ridiculous thing in years! I didn't expect such rumors in the market! ”

but the man could be heard. "What about men? What about women? ”

"In the past, the Emperor and Empress of the Holy Ancestor founded the country and ruled a country together; During the Xili period, there was a talented woman Qiyi because of her talent in the world, and the emperor allowed her to be an official in the previous dynasty, and later promoted to the prime minister. What's more..."

He changed the subject. "What's more, His Majesty's talent today is not inferior to Ji Xiang, and it is comparable to it!"

The words of the man in cloth were loud, and for a while, the hearts of those present were flooded with monstrous waves.

Although since His Majesty ascended the throne, the country and the people have been peaceful, the wind and rain have been smooth, and Dongchu has become stronger and stronger. But most of the people think that it is the credit of the first emperor's hard work, and now His Majesty is just stained with the light of the first emperor. Besides, Your Majesty is a woman... But now listening to the old gentleman's words, it seems that he is quite appreciative of His Majesty.

"Your Majesty is really as you say? How do you know so much about Your Majesty? "But it's the white-faced scholar just now.

As soon as these words came out, the people in the restaurant were shocked again, indeed, listening to what this gentleman said, it seems that he knows His Majesty very well.

But the man laughed: "How can there be a master in the world who doesn't understand the apprentice!" Then he got up, took out the silver from his bosom, put it on the table, and left with a long smile.

But the crowd was stunned.

A very low voice sounded faintly. "I heard that His Majesty has been studying under Li Jing University since his enlightenment. Your Majesty only has this one master! ”

Li Jing, Taikang 26 years of scientific examination three yuan and first, for the history of the defense of the country in the top three people. He is shrewd, wise and brave, the first emperor is very happy to see it, he is a scholar of the palace pavilion, a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, a scientific examination supervisor, and is in charge of the collation and compilation of books on the defense of the country...

Later, due to the turbidity of officialdom, his own weakness, his parents were old, and there was no one to support him, he resigned and returned to his hometown.

"Your Majesty and Ji Xiang are both his students, and as a master, he will not know the level of the two apprentices?"

There was silence in the restaurant.

Private room on the second floor.

"Interesting! It's so much fun! The man in brocade played with the tea cup in his hand, looking playful.

The front window of the private room is open, and there is an apricot blossom in the cloisonnΓ© porcelain vase on the windowsill, surrounded by a piece of pink in bloom, which is very beautiful.

He looked at the porcelain vase and said, "I didn't expect that there was more than Ji Yan in the defense of the country."

A man on the opposite side was also sitting, dressed in black, but his face was full of sadness. "Second Prince, if the Emperor Wei is really what they say, things will be a little difficult..."

"What's so interesting," he grumbled.

"How funny?" The man in brocade asked rhetorically, his face frivolous. "Qi purlin, this king... I've never seen a woman calling for wind and rain in the court..."

Qi Purlin was a little angry. "Second prince, I'm not here for fun, if this doesn't work out, we won't be able to go back."

"Of course, this king knows."

Know? Look at the way you just don't know. Qi Purlin simply ignored him.

In the rising smoke, the jade carved railings, the pavilions and pavilions are hazy, and the hall is full of the smell of ambergris.

In fact, she didn't like ambergris, but when she sat in the hall, it burned every day.

Why? She asked herself...

After losing her mother at the age of five, she stayed with her father to teach herself.

Since then, she has been accompanied by endless strategies in the imperial study, the increasingly heavy homework of the Taifu, and the never-dissipating ambergris on her father's body and in the palace...

Only when she smells this smell will she feel a little relieved, and feel that she can live up to the people of the world like her father, and she can be a bright monarch.

Maybe since then, my father has decided to make her emperor...

But why her?

Why?

In the white expanse, the man in the dragon robe turned around, and she grabbed his sleeve.

He smiled warmly and touched her head. "Ning'er, good..."

Wei Ning suddenly woke up from the case.

Candle tears leave traces on the wax, one by one, ugly but beautiful.

The lights have been lit.

Wei Ning was stunned, opened his mouth to make a sound, and felt that his throat was a little dry. "Zhao, how long have I been asleep?" The voice made was a little hoarse.

Ah Zhao's voice floated out from the beam: "Half an hour." ”

"Princess, can you pass on the imperial doctor?" Ah Zhao heard that something was wrong with her voice.

"No problem." As she spoke, she poured water from the tea cup on the table, and her white fingers added a little charm in the candlelight, and after entering the mouth, she found that the tea had already cooled.

I drank it in one gulp, and my mind cleared up a lot.

Wei Ning put down the teacup and looked through the pages on the table. "Ah Zhao, have you read all the information?"

"Pretty much done."

Wei Ning: "It's important to hear about it. ”

"The emperor of Qi is seriously ill, and the second prince Gong Huipu entered Shengjing yesterday."

"All officials at all levels in Xuzhou are imprisoned in Xuzhou Prison, and Prime Minister Ji is being tried and will be returned in a few days,"

"King Qi has also made some small moves recently."

Wei Ning smiled lightly: "I really can't bear it, I'm afraid that Gong Huipu came here with ill intentions, this person is insidious and cunning, it's really a little difficult to do." ”

"Has the third brother made fewer small moves over the years? It seems that he has stayed well in Jingzhou. ”

Ah Zhao said again: "King Yan came with a letter a few days ago, under the information. At that time, the princess was busy with the flood in Xuzhou, and her subordinates did not report it. ”

Wei Ning's eyebrows were crooked, but he smiled. "It's okay, the eldest brother has received the most letters over the years, and he hasn't had time to see him, I'm afraid he will complain about me."

Hurriedly opened the three pages, the familiar font fell into his eyes, and Wei Ning's heart swelled with an indescribable meaning.

Sister Ning'er, see the words as faces. ...”

Wei Ning slowly chewed the meaning word by word, the wax tears gradually dried up, and she didn't know how many times she had read it...

The candlelight flickered, the woman held the letter, her slender figure flickered on the wall, and her face bloomed with a warm smile.
