Chapter 19: A New Future

Prince Han was a little stunned, and after listening to Sima Jingling's words, he didn't know how to refute for a while.

And Sima Jingling didn't give Prince Han a chance to reorganize the language, and after seeing Prince Han open his mouth and not knowing what to do, he pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, and said slowly:

"Fifth brother, you have always been an independent individual.

I know that although you look cold on the outside, you have always had a sincere heart. If that weren't the case, you wouldn't have indulged me so much because of the simple care my mother gave you back then, and did everything you could to help me do whatever I wanted, even if it might not be a good thing.

But have you ever thought that there will always be one in the future, and I don't need you anymore, Fifth Brother? At that time, what should you do, fifth brother? ”

"I, I'm ......," Prince Han muttered, then bit his lip and said to Sima Jingling,

"Ling, you should know that I have never thought about the future.

If it weren't for you and the queen in the past, I wouldn't have the present at all, so how can I talk about the future?

So I've thought about it a long time ago, if there is a future and you don't need me anymore, then I won't have any complaints, but I've just fulfilled my mission. ”

"How can this be your mission? At the beginning, the queen mother said that, but she just wanted you not to be overly immersed in self-blame, and you didn't have anything to do with the original thing.

Fifth brother, now that you have a sister-in-law, you should also think about her, and you can't take yourself seriously anymore like now. ”

"yes." Prince Han's expression softened suddenly, "Now that I have Lingyi, I should indeed change." So, the one who should really be sorry should be me.

It's that I can't keep the promise I made with you anymore. ”

Sima Jingling shook her head,

"No, it's not your fault. If you have a sister-in-law, you should plan more for your sister-in-law.

So, leave the capital and go back to the fiefdom. ”

"What?" Prince Han's eyes widened sharply and he asked in disbelief.

As if he had suddenly thought of something, he immediately sternly refused:

"No, I can't leave at this time, as soon as I leave, your safety will be guaranteed."

"Fifth brother." Sima Jingling called Prince Han calmly and solemnly, "You should know that you are here now, and you can't let me complete my plan."

And I've been waiting for this for a long time. ”

Prince Han looked at Sima Jingling's extremely calm and even somewhat cold eyes, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

He clenched his fists tightly and sat down.

Pei Ling's people were rushing to find out Lao Zhao's details.

Sima Jingling's side is already preparing to go out of the city.

After meeting with Mrs. Lin and the old subordinates left behind by his father, he began to spend a lot of energy to make up for the development and changes of the situation in the Northern Proud Kingdom over the years and various affairs, filling in the gaps in the situation of the Northern Proud Kingdom over the years.

He signed one plan after another, so that all the people scattered all over the Northern Proud Country, who they called orthodox, took action, and the entire Northern Proud Country was lively.

Only the capital city has not moved so far, as if waiting for an opportunity.

Sima Jingling had already ordered Qiulan and the others to pack up their things, and at this moment she was sitting in the courtyard, watching the hot sun be covered by the clouds from time to time, and then burst out with a more intense light, as if she was fighting against the clouds in anger, and was covered by the clouds for a while, and then she wanted to release her absolute heat even harder, so that the whole earth was covered with a hot atmosphere, and there was no cherry blossoms at all

In this way, although the clouds eventually completely covered the sun, it could not stop it, and the sun did its best to release the terrifying heat.

After Ah Pu arranged the latest task instructions, he accompanied Sima Jingling and sat in the shade of a tree in the courtyard.

He looked at the somewhat gloomy emptiness, felt the stagnation of the air around him, and seemed to sigh, "It's going to change." ”

Hearing this, Sima Jingling looked at Ah Pu, and it didn't matter how Apo had progressed in the past two days, and how far they had come, but echoed it,

"Well, it's going to change. I've been in Beiao for so long, and this is the first time I've felt what the rain is like in Beiao.

But if you want to enjoy the rain, outside the city is a good place to go. ”

Ah Pu nodded, as if he agreed with Sima Jingling's words.

He opened his mouth to ask for something, then shook his head again, swallowing the words he wanted to utter.

He thought to himself, it was just a short separation, and after he stabilized the things here, he would follow Sima Jingling back to the Southern Imperial Kingdom, and at that time, they would still have a lot of opportunities to get along, so why bother with this time?

Besides, it's a bit strange to say this.

So, Ah Pu laughed, just like the kind of true and cunning, pure and bewitching appearance he always showed in front of Sima Jingling.

Sima Jingling also smiled.

The two sat quietly for a while, and after a while, Sima Jingling should leave.

For a while, they didn't do anything, they didn't do anything, they all seemed to understand something, and they seemed to be hazy and vaguely hiding something that was about to come out, and finally they all returned to peace.

Sima Jingling and them, it was very smooth to go out of the city.

After learning that Sima Jingling had successfully left the city and found a suitable place to stay, Ah Pu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and continued to cheer up and deal with the next matters.

Since Wei Rong was announced into the palace that day, except for an occasional return in the middle, he has never been able to come back, and he has been left in the palace by Wei Jing every time, not knowing what he is discussing.

Therefore, when Ah Pu finally finished dealing with the affairs in hand, when he walked out of the door and saw Wei Rong, he was indeed a little surprised.

He raised his eyebrows, sat down beside Wei Rong, and asked, "Wei Jing is finally willing to put you back?" ”

Wei Rong glanced slightly to his side, and said slowly: "In the end, I just went to the palace to drink tea and be a guest, how can I compare to you being busy?"

Why, Your Highness, are you finally baring your fangs? ”

Apo chuckled, but didn't admit or deny it.

From the moment he decided to meet those old subordinates, he had already been prepared not to hide, so Wei Rong knew something, it was all something he expected.

However, Wei Jing's side has not reacted yet, which actually makes Ah Pu's heart have a lot of thoughts.

He glanced at Wei Rong meaningfully, as if he meant something,

"You've been with Wei Jing for so long, haven't you talked to Wei Jing about something else, and lived to remind him that his country can't sit still?"

Wei Rong also smiled and said to Ah Xuan: "How do you know that I didn't get up with him?" ”

Hearing this, Ah Gui turned his head and glanced at Wei Rong a few times, but he didn't have anything, but continued to sit, looking at the more and more gloomy color.

At this time, there is already a cool breeze blowing.

"The ambition of Donglinguo is very straightforward in front of Wei Jing, he is now on the verge of anger, and he can't wait to personally break the corpses of those people in Donglinguo.

But he couldn't do that yet.

How many people were sent by Donglinguo, in addition to these people who are now entering the city, are there any other people hiding in the shadows, these are all unknown things for Wei Jinglai. Therefore, he couldn't move, and he had to suppress his impatience and anger, and everyone in his faction tirelessly stared at what those people were doing.

Hmm, do you know how many people have been killed and injured in the palace recently? How can he still have enough mind to take care of you, our returning Highness Proton? ”

"I'm not His Highness the Proton." Agui interrupted him with a smile, "I'm just an ordinary person with no name and no share. ”

Ah Pu heard the little unwillingness to please Wei Rong's words, but at this time, he couldn't fully trust Wei Rong.

Wei Jing's tyrannical nature became more and more undisguised, and although the interior of the capital city looked the same as usual, after Ah Pu came into contact with Mrs. Lin and them, he was still keenly aware of a potential change in the capital.

The hotter the more people showed their dissatisfaction with Wei Jing.

Although most of the people in the palace were sold into the palace in order to subsidize their families, not all of them willingly sent their children to the palace, and most of them were forced to abandon their children.

They don't have their own land, and they don't have anything else to make a profit from, so they rent land and make very simple things by hand to exchange them for money in the market.

If, at this time, those county lords and the like, whatever name they use, increase these taxes, then they can only send their children out in tears.

If he really resists to the end, it is not a big deal to severely injure the head of the family and make him completely lose the ability to work and resist.

So in the end, their children will still be forcibly escorted to Gong Zheng

Originally, the number of people who were sent to the palace every year was fixed and there was a certain limit.

But because of Wei Jing's tyrannical nature, sometimes he can't hold back his hands, and it is really common to beat people to death directly.

As soon as this man died, there was a shortage of people in the palace, so they had to enter from outside the palace.

As there are more and more dead people in the palace, the demand for Rao is getting bigger and bigger.

It's just one family, two families, two families, three families, and thousands of households, and the resentment in the hearts of the people naturally increases exponentially.

The reason why he hasn't resisted yet is that he is still missing that opportunity.

Wei Rong and Ah Pu are actually telling Ah Pu that the opportunity has come.

But is this opportunity really the most suitable opportunity? Abu wasn't convinced.

Therefore, he did not take Wei Rong's words, but remained silent.

Wei Rong saw that Ah Pu was just smiling, but he didn't answer for a long time, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.

Just as he was preparing something more, the subordinate hurried over, and after glancing at him and Ah Pu, he said,

"Something's wrong."

Torrential rain suddenly poured down.

With lightning and thunder, Ah Pu and Wei Rong all went out.

Wei Rong, as the person who was summoned by Wei Jing on the surface, as soon as he got out of the alley, there was a carriage waiting to pick him up; Ah Pu, on the other hand, hid in the shadows and followed Mrs. Lin to the place of the incident.

Both of them listened to Lairao's report, and then they knew that it was the group of people from the east who had an accident.

There was another poisoning incident in that group of people, except for the leader Pei Ling and some of the team members, everyone else was poisoned and died.

And the poisoner was pierced through the heart by Pei Ling's sword and was silent.

Xu is riot was too much, and when he saw someone reporting to the official, Pei Ling knew that he was in trouble, so he left with a part, preparing to attract the attention of the Beiao Mansion, while leaving the other part, pretending not to know anything, and continued to stay where he was.

Wei Jing came to Wei Rong for this matter.

Apo and Mrs. Lynn are the same.

This time, because Wei Jing was staring at this group of people all the time, he came in a timely manner, and he was not passive when he couldn't go to the scene.

When Wei Rong and Ah Pu, who were hidden in the shadows, came, they saw that in the two connected rooms, there were dead people who were not looking at each other, and there was a sharp sword, directly stuck in the chest, leaning against the wall, and the blood stained the wall behind him.

But there was a twisted smile on his face.

After taking one look, he quietly left, returned to the carriage and asked Mrs. Lin, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Mrs. Lin said: "I heard that there was an internal contradiction, and the specific Zheng is still being verified."

But what is certain now is that the person who was killed by the sword was indeed the one who poisoned him. He poisoned the food, intending to kill the leader.

But unexpectedly, the leader did not use food for the first time, and by the time he came, someone had already died. ”

"That's why he killed people in a fit of rage, didn't he?" After listening to Linfu's words, Ah Pu thought about it carefully and said to Mrs. Lin, "No, there must be other problems here, the poison may really be caused by their own people, but the person killed by the sword is not necessarily. ”

Mrs. Lin was surprised: "You are, there are others here?" ”

Apo nodded his head,

"There must be someone else in this, but I don't know if this person is friend or foe."

When Mrs. Lin heard this, her face suddenly became solemn.

She said to Ah Cui: "I will definitely find out about this matter." ”

Ah Pu shook his head and said to Mrs. Lin: "No, you don't need to do anything in this matter, I want to test someone by taking this opportunity." ”

Raising the king is a problem
