Chapter 191: Goodbye Xiao Zhen
As soon as Yang Chan left, I had to personally go into battle for the big and small affairs in the academy, and I was a little busy for a while. In fact, for more than a year, Yang Chan has organized everything in an orderly manner. Yet I relied on her too much.
Maybe I shouldn't have exposed her. But whether she meant it or not, she had touched my scales, and I couldn't forgive her.
Alas! I always call her Yang Chan. Is that obviously Yang Jian!
Fortunately, at this time, it was close to the end of the year, and there were not many classes. My statement to the students is that Teacher Yang Chan was recalled to Huashan by her teacher and could not come for a short time. When the students heard this, they all expressed extreme regret.
The same goes for my debriefing above. My boss is still Ji Dan. After the new king succeeded to the throne, he was still in charge of the etiquette and music. But everything else has undergone a major change.
I originally thought that when Ji Fa succeeded to the throne, people from his faction should occupy a key position. It turned out that this was not the case.
Jiang Shang still occupies the position of prime minister and prince, but he has no real power. Ji Zheng, who was formerly in charge of the Imperial Prison, was transferred to foreign affairs. Uncle Yu is the main sacrifice, Ji Xian Sikong, Ji Du Sikou, most of the internal affairs and military power have been concentrated in the hands of Ji Xian's faction.
Perhaps this is exactly what King Wen of Zhou arranged when he was dying? For some reason, the memories of my past life that I think of at this time are not about King Wen of Zhou, but about Tang Gaozu, Nurhachi, Kangxi and their sons.
After the death of King Wen, the royal family who originally lived in the Lingtai Palace have moved back to the Fengyi Palace. I am the only one who still lives in the Lingtai. Now the royal family who lives in Lingtai for a long time only has the fifth royal brother Ji Du. And this is one of the last people I want to meet.
The other corner opposite the women's academy has been converted into a training ground for the army. Shouts of killing were heard all day long. It often makes our students nervous. Normal teaching has been severely affected.
In the blink of an eye, the New Year has arrived again (1050 BC). The college is closed. The army also stopped training. The whole palace was silent. Naturally, I won't take the initiative to pay New Year's greetings to Ji Du. He came to the door on his own initiative, looking specifically for my disgust.
So I wrapped my short body in the quilt and leaned on the pillow, saying that I couldn't afford to be sick. Jidu got bored, sat next to me for a while, and then left.
Then I packed up, put on my coat, and got into a carriage and went into town.
First to meet the new king, then Mrs. Taiji, and then the queen Yi Jiang. Yi Jiang didn't see the slightest joy of being a queen, but looked very melancholy, perhaps just a natural reaction to pregnancy.
Coming out of the palace, I went directly to the Prime Minister's Mansion. I can't think about avoiding suspicion anymore, so I have to go.
As soon as we met, Mrs. Shen Jiang asked me if my legs were starting to grow. It's really a pot that can't be opened. It's been more than a year and a half since I removed my legs. My bare hip bones were still unremarkable, and my acetabulum was still sunken and empty.
I blushed and shook my head.
Shen Jiang turned his head to look at Jiang Shang, "Old man, is your senior sister reliable?" Don't hurt our little girl Nezha! ”
"Ahem!" Jiang Shang coughed, "What do you mean?" In the past 200 years, Senior Sister Cihang has healed countless people. How can it not be reliable? ”
When Jiang Shang and I were alone in the house, I asked him, "Have you found out the spy who committed the assassination?" ”
He pondered for a moment, "I already have eyebrows." But the background is deep, and I don't want to startle the snake yet. ”
"Does the king of Zhou know?" I asked.
"He knows." Jiang Shang replied, "That's what he meant." ”
"The Assassins......" I asked again.
"They have all returned to Northern Lebanon."
"Let's just forget it? Waiting for Wen Zhong's army to press the realm? ”
Jiang Shang looked at me, "How can you forget it?" In the past two years, although we have not launched a major expedition, we have not left behind any other actions. You know what? The king of Shang had deprived Wen Zhong of his position and sent him to Beili, where his old friend Li Gong went to guard the pass. ”
My eyes lit up, "Really? ”
"Of course it's true!" Jiang Shang said, "But how can Wen Zhong give up? Bound to bring troops. But in that case, he can't represent the king of Shang, but only Li Gong! ”
"And there is even more reason for us to send troops to Beili, right?" I asked.
Jiang Shang smiled and patted me on the shoulder. "Yes, kid. You are very smart. It's just that I hope that by the time of the decisive battle, your legs will grow and grow completely. ”
I asked, "But Uncle Shi, Wen Zhong has the support of the immortals of the Biyou Branch behind him." With our current strength, can we fight him? ”
Jiang Shang frowned, "So we also have to enlist the support of the Jade Void Branch." Uncle Shi, I am contacting you, Master and others to try to suggest that the dean change the meeting of the Yuxu Branch to be held in Qishan this spring. At that time, King Zhou will personally visit the immortals of Kunlun. ”
"Parties? Do I need to go? ”
"Go!" Jiang Shang said categorically, "I have already asked your master and your uncle Cihang. Their opinions, whether you arrive with or without legs, are to participate. ”
"Oh!" I answered.
It's March. I'm preparing for the next season of the girls' branch. On this day, the guard suddenly came to report: "Princess, there is a prince outside the door, saying that the old man is visiting." ”
Who is it? "Let him in!"
When the familiar white-clothed figure appeared in front of me, I froze.
"Uncle Shi, Brother Xiao!"
I retreated, "Brother Xiao, in the past two years, you have suffered!" As he spoke, he couldn't help choking.
"Silly girl," he picked me up and dragged my lower body with one hand, "It's just two years of retreat." You are the one who really suffers! ”
"Brother Xiao......"
"But," he touched my crotch, "you're prettier than ever!" ”
I laughed, "I'm all legs gone, and I'm still beautiful?" ”
"yes!" He said, "It doesn't affect you!" ”
I asked, "Are you here to see me?" Or is it because of something else? ”
"Something else indeed." He smiled slightly, "I'm here to pick you up to attend the Yuxu Qishan party." Senior Brother Cihang wants your legs to grow before the Qishan party, so let me come and pick you up in advance. ”
"Okay!" I immediately said goodbye to Ji Dan, said goodbye to Ji Fa and Jiang Shang, and went to Qishan with Xiao Zhen.
At the foot of Qishan, there was originally a piece of palace of King Zhou. At this time, it was used by Ji Fa to entertain the Kunlun immortals. When we arrived, there was almost no one.
Xiao Zhen leaned close to my ear, "Still want to do it?" ”
What more do you want? I immediately understood what he was saying, and I couldn't help but blush.
"Uncle Shi, aren't you afraid of being punished again?"
He smiled, "We're not going to make that much of a fuss this time." God knows, the earth knows, you know, I know, who knows? ”
