Chapter 91: Secrets

Shameless?

Chen Shide felt that this was wrong.

He raised his head, his neck also leaned back slightly, and when he caught a glimpse of the anger on Zhou Yan's face, he was stunned again: "Lord Zhou has been in Shuntian Mansion for almost five years, right?" How could such naïve and ignorant words be uttered? ”

Yes, courtesy, righteousness and shame, in the eyes of these people, hanging on the lips is not the most naïve and ignorant.

But that should be the last pure land in Zhou Yan's heart, and it is also his initial insistence.

When a scholar encounters a scoundrel, there is always no way.

I'm half angry with myself, what are you trying to do?

Zhao Ying called Zhou Yan and motioned for him to shut up.

Zhou Yan was not very convinced.

He has been an official in Shuntian Mansion for nearly five years, and what he has heard and seen is indeed a lot of dirty things, those unsightly deeds, he told Zhao Ying that day.

But those who have been found out and put on the bright side are really rare like Chen Shide, who will not repent!

Zhao Ying pointed to the handrail: "According to Lord Chen's meaning, you are not wrong, and you are not guilty?" ”

"According to the Law of Great Qi, it is not an exaggeration for me to divide the corpse of five horses, but ask my own heart, of course I feel innocent."

Chen Shide took a deep breath and returned his gaze to Zhao Ying: "Your Highness is now in charge of the Sili Academy, and he is in power, what are you thinking about every day in your heart?" ”

"Your Highness is innocent and clean, your heart is clear, the most unselfish, and the most unbiased, so why did Your Highness take me back to Chen's Mansion today, and ask me to answer the three questions asked by His Highness with the threat of my family's life?"

As far as he spoke, the ridicule and mockery were clear: "The first question, even if His Highness's life is in danger, it's fine. But as for what I have to do with Feng Kun, and what kind of person stands behind me, does it matter to His Highness? ”

In the eyes of these people, these things are of course unimportant to Zhao Ying.

Whether it was in the past or now, they always tied her to Zhao Che.

It seems that everything she does is indispensable for Zhao Che to have a plan.

It's ridiculous.

Her life belongs only to herself, what does it have to do with Zhao Che?

In fact, even Du Zhiyi and Zhou Yan are still thinking like this.

Zhao Ying lowered her face coldly: "Do you think it's important?" ”

Chen Shide knew that he couldn't hide today, so he simply let it go: "Of course, it is not important to His Highness, but for His Royal Highness, it is crucial.

Her Royal Highness is the daughter's family, the most noble princess of Daqi, and she will become a family in the future, as long as the horse has a noble character, a noble background, and is worthy of the princess, it will be enough.

Could it be that His Royal Highness is standing in the Taiji Hall and stirring up the situation in the court, can he still go to the high platform and sit on the dragon chair in the future? ”

He was so insane that he dared to say such a rebellious thing.

"You are quite open-minded, you can't take care of your life, just want to be happy for a while, Lord Chen is about to confuse Lonely, do you care about the lives of your family members, or don't you care?"

And he was wrong.

In the coming day, she is going to climb the platform and sit on the dragon chair!

It's just that Chen Shide has never had a chance to see it alive in his life.

Chen Shide eased a little: "I was excited for a while, but His Highness should also be true to his word, I opened my mouth, Your Highness will stop embarrassing my family." ”

"But if I'm not mistaken, you still have a problem that you haven't made clear, Lord Chen."

To say one is to say, and to say two is to say.

However, Chen Shide still hesitated.

The first two are not the top of the list.

He can't protect himself, and he has to give up his life, so what does Feng Kun care about Feng Kun or not?

But the man behind him......

"The water in the court is deep, there is some truth, didn't His Royal Highness King Yan and Song Shilang mention His Royal Highness?"

Zhao Ying knew that he would not explain so happily: "Do you still want to talk to Gu about the truth that when the water is clear, there are no fish?" ”

Chen Shide was choked by her words, and he had nothing to say for a while.

"Lone doesn't have so much time to listen to you talk about the big truth here, three questions, one less is considered to be your Lord Chen's dishonesty, since you are not honest, then the cooperation will not be able to be discussed, and the things that Lone promised will not be counted."

As soon as Zhao Ying's originally cocked Erlang's legs were released, he was about to get up.

Chen Shide remembered her ruthlessness, so ruthless, as noble as her, she didn't even blink her eyes when she used a knife or a gun.

It's born with an imprint in the bones, like a ...... Emperor Zhaoning.

"Your Highness—"

When he spoke, he failed to hide his emotions, revealing his nervousness and panic.

Zhao Ying's figure paused: "Say." ”

"When I go back to Dali Temple, will I tell His Highness privately about this matter?"

There are so many people here, Chen Shide is probably afraid that the people of the Chen family have heard it, and they will seek revenge or destroy their mouths when they turn back.

He won't care about the people in Siliyuan.

Zhao Ying was not in a hurry at this time, and she didn't really want to force Chen Shide to a dead end.

The dog is still in a hurry and jumps over the wall, Chen Shide is already a dying person, and it is no good to force him to be in a hurry.

So Zhao Ying agreed, explained to Chen Suming to ask a doctor to bandage the wound, and ordered someone to go to Yunyi Building to order two tables of exquisite dishes to improve the Chen family, and then ordered someone to take Chen Shide and go back to Dali Temple all the way.

On the way, Zhou Yan was still sullen, obviously still sulking for the collusion between Chen Shide and Feng Kun.

Li Chongzhi's face is not good, but compared to Zhou Yan, he is already a lot stronger.

In the end, it is the person under her, Zhao Ying thought about it, and she really had a lot more patience with Zhou Yan than usual, and persuaded a few words: "What do you have to be angry about?" I think what Chen Shide said is right, you have been an official in the court for a few years, this kind of thing is not uncommon, and you are angry like this today? ”

"The two of them, one is Yushi Zhongcheng, and the other is Shaoqing of Dali Temple, what is that place? Picketing hundreds of officials, impeaching superiors, taking charge of prisons, and trying unjust cases, what is the result? ”

Even though Zhou Yan was angry in his heart, he still restrained himself when he spoke to Zhao Ying, and after speaking, he couldn't stop sighing: "The atmosphere of the court is all ruined by these people. ”

Actually, that's not the case.

Zhao Ying suddenly remembered that when she accompanied Emperor Zhaoning to dine in the Qingning Palace, Emperor Zhaoning also mentioned Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan's talent, Emperor Zhaoning knew very well in his heart, he was worthy of the heavy responsibility, and Emperor Zhaoning also understood.

Therefore, the uncle personally mentioned Zhou Yan to the Sili Yuan as the supervisor of the Sili Academy, and Emperor Zhaoning would not ask, if he was really a mediocre and talentless person, I am afraid he would not let it go.

But in the past few years, Emperor Zhaoning never thought of reusing Zhou Yan.

Isn't it just because he came from a humble background?

In the past, Yan Chongzhi was also from a poor family, but he was able to achieve the position of the six books, where is the difference between Zhou Yan and Yan Chongzhi?

It's the wrong time.

At the beginning of Emperor Zhaoning's reign, he slaughtered his siblings and dismissed hundreds of officials, and no one did better than him.

At that time, the Great Qi court urgently needed fresh blood, and he needed Emperor Zhaoning to pull it up, and his henchmen would stabilize the court for him, and it would also be convenient for him to control the court faster.

Yan Chongzhi came to prominence at that time and naturally fell into the eyes of Emperor Zhaoning.

But these decades have passed, and what Emperor Zhaoning wants is no longer a poor student like Zhou Yan.

A mere Zhou Yan will not help him stabilize his court, so whether Zhou Yan can get ahead or show his talent is not important to him.

Because he knew very well in his heart that if Zhou Yan formed a party, in seven years, no one would recommend him.

Until now—

Zhao Ying squinted at the past.

So in the eyes of Emperor Zhaoning, Zhou Yan was already Zhao Che's person.

Sure enough, he acquiesced in the brother's discord.

In his opinion, the same room is the law of the jungle, and only those who can survive and go to the end are qualified to inherit the unification and be his prince.

It's just a madman.

Zhou Yan touched himself with his backhand: "Why does Your Highness look at me like this?" ”

Zhao Ying shook her head.

He may not yet know what kind of strife he is involved in.

But that doesn't matter.

In this game of betting against Zhou Yan, her bet was also very large.

Li Chongzhi held back one thing in his heart, endured it for a long time, and when he saw that Zhao Ying and Zhou Yan finished speaking, he really couldn't hold it back, so he wanted to ask.

But as soon as the corners of his mouth moved, Zhou Yan immediately stopped him, even cut off his words, and asked Zhao Ying first: "Then when you go back to Dali Temple later, will you still detain Chen Shide alone?" Your Highness has asked everything you want to ask, is it more appropriate to convict as soon as possible? ”

Zhao Ying turned a deaf ear, and went to call Li Chongzhi after him: "What do you want to ask me?" ”

Li Chongzhi hesitated for a moment, but instead laughed at Zhao Ying: "I heard my uncle say that you are a very straightforward character, whether you were in the army back then, or later under the command of the commander of the Qin capital, what is wrong today?" Feng Gong stopped you, and you honestly shut up? ”

It turned out that she saw it all.

Zhou Yan was also a little embarrassed.

Li Chongzhi cleared his throat and said no, but probably because of Zhou Yan's obstruction, he still hesitated.

Zhao Ying didn't urge him anymore, so he hesitated and hesitated, and then turned his heart sideways: "His Royal Highness asked who was behind Chen Shide and what was his intention?" Since His Highness's almost interception and killing has nothing to do with Chen Shide, it has nothing to do with the people behind him, even if His Highness investigates this matter, ask this...... It doesn't make much sense, does it? ”

"So you're afraid that I'll be angry and annoyed with him, so you stop him from asking him?"

Zhao Ying didn't laugh angrily, and asked Zhou Yan with raised eyebrows.

Zhou Yan hesitated for a long time before he stiffened his neck and nodded, and hummed: "In Chen's house, he held back and wanted to ask, I pulled him back, and he has been wanting to ask since he got out of Chen's mansion and got into the carriage." ”

Li Chongzhi couldn't hide something in his heart, so he asked him to swallow this confusion in his stomach, which could make him uncomfortable to death.

It's hard for him to listen to Zhou Yan's words like this, he has endured it for most of the day from the Chen Mansion, and he has only shown it until now.

Of course, she knew that the interception and killing had nothing to do with Chen Shide, and she also knew that Chen Shide was behind the Jiang family, but so what?

"Doesn't it say that knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles? I am in the court, I can no longer avoid those treacherous clouds, I always know what the power of the DPRK and China is, and I will have a way to deal with things in the future, do I count on the emperor's uncle and uncle to settle these things for me all my life, and I will sit back and relax as my subordinate order? ”

She said as she leaned back on the previous three-legged table, squinting her eyes over the two of them, "And I know what you're thinking." ”

The two looked at each other, but neither of them said a word.

"Zhao Che is still young, and I haven't planned to let him get involved in court affairs in the past few years.

Otherwise, I will harden my heart and be ruthless, and the affairs in the northwest will call him to go, establish his authority in the northwest, and solve the urgent need of my father.

When he comes back from the Northwest meritorious service, my uncle is speaking for him in the court, and I will go to the emperor to talk to my father and the emperor, isn't it natural for him to go to the Taiji Hall to listen to the government? ”

Zhao Ying looked at the two of them and sneered: "What? Think I'm coaxing you? ”

"No......" Zhou Yan's throat tightened, "I just didn't expect His Highness to say this." ”

"It's funny that you've been with me for so many days, and you think the same thing as those people out there."

She was a little helpless, and she didn't know how many times she rolled her eyes in her heart: "How old is he, what does he understand?" When I was his age, I was running around with a kite all day long, and I just knew how to eat, drink, and be merry.

When you are working under me, you should know my heart. ”

But as far as this highness's heart is concerned, she is so strong and so unyielding, as her own brother, she will only hope that her third highness will become a talent.

Now I said something like this again......

It really doesn't match her behavior these days.

"Your Highness is naturally justified in thinking about the three highnesses like this, probably because the minister is too shallow and blind, and when I heard His Highness ask about the forces behind Chen Shide in the Chen Mansion, I thought that His Highness was paving the way for the future."

After all, raising a person like Chen Shide, how many years have supported him to sit in the position of the middle of the imperial history, but as a result, he lost such a big person, and he was corrupt and perverted the law for nearly ten years, just under the nose of the Son of Heaven, which is really bold!

If Zhao Ying holds the person behind him, it will be a good weapon to hit the opponent in the future.

No wonder they think so.

In fact, after Zhao Ying finished speaking, he didn't believe it.

Zhou Yan and Li Chongzhi, if they hadn't been on an errand under her, I'm afraid the misunderstanding would have been even deeper.

"Then you're thinking too much."

She is paving the way, but not for Zhao Che.

Zhou Yan pursed his lips: "But His Royal Highness asked Chen Shide about such a thing in front of everyone, and he said that he told His Highness in private, and the minister was a little worried, His Highness is still careful these days, so as not to ......"

He may have been a little taboo about the latter words, and his voice simply stopped abruptly.

Zhao Ying understood, and burst out laughing: "Afraid that I will be intercepted and killed again?" ”

Zhou Yan looked at her indifferent appearance, thinking about having Xu Yan by her side to protect her, although Xu Yan is strong in martial arts and has excellent skills, which is indeed reassuring, but as noble as her, it is still indispensable to be frightened when encountering such a thing.

So he was a little helpless, and sighed in a low voice: "In this world, there are more secrets to know, and there will always be all kinds of dangers coming one after another, Your Highness should be careful, there will be no mistakes." ”
