Chapter Seventy-Seven: Ill-Thought
Han Qinglan only smiled disapprerovingly, and said while laughing:
"It's not a big deal, it's just a broken wooden card."
As he spoke, he shrugged. Bowing his head and sweeping the military attache uniform on his body, he continued with self-deprecation:
"If it weren't for this body, I'm afraid that others wouldn't be able to remember which one of the Zhongyong Bofu in Beijing was written on the wooden plaque. Even if he is temporarily cut by the saint, he ......"
He said it lightly, but Hong Ze was already anxious to become an ant on a hot pot.
Before Han Qinglan could finish speaking, he had already shouted in a low voice:
"No way!"
Although his teeth were itching, he learned the lessons of the past, and Hong Ze didn't move again this time. Only after he gasped for a moment with his own breath, he waved his hand and said hurriedly:
"You're too autocratic! I can't drag you down anymore. ”
After drawing conclusions, Hong Ze didn't even care about his own job.
His eyes quickly lowered, and while he grabbed his head with one hand, he was engrossed in thinking, and at the same time muttered:
"After seeing you wearing an official uniform and forcibly breaking into Lixiangyuan, I guess you kid didn't want to hide your identity. But don't even ...... official position"
"Do you really think that the last time I was drunk by you and secretly sent to your house, I really woke up and sneaked out of Uncle Zhongyong's mansion?"
These words really surprised Han Qinglan. After raising his eyebrows slightly, he only slightly adjusted his posture of leaning against the branch, and then asked with curiosity in his eyes:
"Huh? But didn't you tell me that yourself? So, what happened to make you not speak directly to me? ”
The appearance of Hang'er Langdang almost made Hong Ze angry again. But in order to make Han Qinglan realize the seriousness of the problem, and for the sake of his own thinking.
After he took a deep breath, he still threw out the words that came to his mind for a moment.
"I don't want to lie to you. Mrs. Kebo thought that I, who was full of alcohol, was a fox friend and dog friend you recruited outside, and I was a friend of wine and meat......"
Thinking of the words that the other party humiliated Han Qinglan and him at that time, Hong Ze added another big stone to his chest.
After taking another deep breath, he skipped Mrs. Zhongyongbo's specific words and continued:
"Anyway, if you still want to stay in the Bofu, you must not be dismissed by Your Majesty! Even if you resign yourself, it's much better than that. ”
The last lament, almost lightly, only passed by Hong Ze's mouth, and then dissipated in the wind at the top of the tree.
But in fact, Han Qinglan didn't need to say much from her friends, she just heard that her stepmother had been to his yard, and she had already guessed what would happen in that yard at that time.
Therefore, after he casually responded to Hong Ze, he squinted his eyes and didn't pay attention to how his friend responded.
Hong Ze sighed for his friend, and immediately brought the topic back on track.
"Fortunately, your kid didn't hurt the third prince and the others, and judging from the results, it can be regarded as saving the lives of the third prince. He came and went in a hurry the whole time, and he didn't say a word. ”
"In this way, you will go back to the palace with me in a while. I only said to Your Majesty that I have entrusted me to do what I am doing today. Then report all kinds of clues about the assassins, so that the Holy One will not blame you for acting on your own. But it's a pity that I didn't think about it before, and I confessed my guilt to His Majesty in a hurry, and I neglected this. Let me think about it again, can I earn a credit for you. ”
Hong Ze is not good at thinking deeply, and when he is forced to be anxious and faces a trusted person, he will be like now, and he will declare everything in his heart.
Han Qinglan hadn't seen her friend for a while, and because she had a plan in her heart, she had to lean on the branch at the moment and enjoy the scene of being "cared for".
It's just that when he heard that Hong Ze had a showdown with Emperor Xuande, he immediately sat up straight, frowned, and interrupted his friend's broken thoughts.
"Wait. Lao Hong, did you just say that you have already told the Holy Lord and the things of today, no, these days? When? ”
With Han Qinglan's understanding of her friends. The truth has not yet come out, and the situation is so chaotic, Hong Ze, who has always tried to be safe, would never be so impulsive.
Not to mention, if Hong Ze had the courage to take the initiative to "throw himself into the net", things would not have dragged on until now.
Therefore, there must be some kind of external force in this, which intervenes when he does not know it.
Who exactly?
On the other hand, Hong Zegang's calm heart because he thought of a way, and once again felt a little guilty because of Han Qinglan's nervousness.
"Well, not long ago, when I went to buy dim sum halfway through the county lord of Danyang. After pleading guilty to His Majesty and explaining that he exceeded his authority, he directly asked for orders and continued to investigate the matter. ”
In other words, Hong Ze took all the risks alone. And in a desperate gamble, he risked his life to get a justifiable chance to investigate the whole incident.
Han Qinglan listened with bated breath, and at the same time looked at the person in front of her carefully, and thought about it again, since she first met and now, her friend did not have a depressed demeanor, and she was slightly relieved.
Therefore, at this time, he can ignore everything else and concentrate on one point.
When Hong Ze's words fell, Han Qinglan took a light breath and immediately asked:
"Is it the Lord of Danyang?"
The one who instigated Hong Ze to be so dangerous, the culprit!
Hong Ze completely misunderstood Han Qinglan's intention to ask, and immediately nodded with a smile after being surprised:
"yes. Hey, no wonder this girl can be favored by His Majesty, and she can't even compare to the holy princess. ”
After Han Qinglan received an affirmative answer, her eyes fell from among the branches and leaves to the Danyang County Lord who was talking in the hall below.
And the moment he saw the person, the cold light flashed in his squinted eyes, and he was obviously angry.
At this time, Hong Ze didn't notice anything unusual, and still sighed:
"Tsk, it's a pity that she has the keenness, the ability to speculate on people's hearts, and the courage and courage that ordinary men can hardly match. But, then again, how did you guess? ”
But before the words were asked, Hong Ze immediately suddenly let out an "oh".
Last time, he was drunk by this stinky boy in the princess's mansion! And the two of them came to visit that day, it was the county lord of Danyang.
The two of them should have seen each other a long time ago, and even in retrospect at this time, all kinds of things today, it seems that the two of them have cooperated?
"You ......"
Because of this unexpected discovery, Hong Ze's face immediately turned bad again.
But Han Qinglan had already taken precautions, and at this time, as if she had just remembered, she suddenly turned her head and smiled at Hong Ze:
"That's right, I think your last guess can be true. The Assassin was indeed a Beidi person, and it was not a pretense of others. ”
When it came to business, Hong Ze was immediately distracted.
"What? It's true?! Quick, elaborate. ”
Because Han Qinglan has her own family history, when the other party fought with this inexplicable assassin, he could give such a certain conclusion, and nine times out of ten it was already the truth.
And the ultimate goal of his exhaustion and fear is to find out the real culprit and avenge his vain subordinates.
Now that he has a direction, Hong Ze feels full of strength in an instant.
Han Qinglan shook her head and said:
"You confess first, and after taking the initiative to ask for sin, how will the Holy One deal with you?"
