Chapter 50: Reinvigorating the Majesty
When the army came to the gate of Jiangzhou, Bai Shuqin saw He Zhizhou waiting there at a glance, and she knew in her heart why he came.
Sima Liang knew that they had something to say, so he took people to stop where they were.
Zhuo Jinxuan turned over and dismounted, and Bai Shuqin followed closely behind. Seeing them dismount, He Zhizhou hurriedly walked over, knelt in front of the two of them, and arched his hand: "Minister He Zhizhou, send off His Royal Highness the Third Prince." ”
"Get up!" Zhuo Jinxuan said.
He Zhizhou got up from the ground, wanting to say something but was too embarrassed to speak. Bai Shuqin smiled and took the lead in saying to him: "The third prince promised you, and he will definitely not break his promise." ”
He Zhizhou's tense emotions relaxed at this time, and he once again arched his hand to Zhuo Jinxuan and said, "Minister, thank you to His Royal Highness the Third Prince, thank you to the Third Imperial Concubine." ”
For what he did, Zhuo Jinxuan could understand, but he didn't agree. However, if a person is not a sage, he can do no wrong. "I can save you once, but I can't save you for the rest of your life. I hope you will work for the welfare of the people of Jiangzhou in the future and atone for your previous crimes. ”
He Zhizhou lowered his head and only felt that his face was flushed, and he was ashamed in his heart.
After leaving the city gate, Bai Shuqin asked Zhuo Jinxuan: "Aren't you going to report what He Zhizhou did to the emperor?" ”
Zhuo Jinxuan didn't answer her, he didn't want to involve her in the court. When I go back this time, I'm afraid that what awaits him is not a reward.
She didn't hear the answer Bai Shuqin didn't ask, she looked up at the cloudy sky, and returned to the capital, not knowing what kind of task Nangong Che would arrange for her. The poison in her body restrained her after all.
There is no light in the dark palace, only the burning candle brings light. Nangong Che, who was already silent, was more like a king from the underworld in such an environment.
He flipped through the document in his hand, which recorded Han Yu's information. Dealing with trouble for the emperor every day, he hadn't encountered such an interesting thing for a long time.
"How many days does Bai Shuqin have to arrive in the capital?" Nangong Che asked the messenger standing next to him.
"Ten days to go."
Nangong Che put down the documents in his hand and instructed him, "Let her come to see me in ten days." ”
"Yes, Pavilion Master!" The messenger hugged his fists.
The return trip was the same, but at least Bai Shuqin didn't need to make a fire by herself, she sat around the burning bonfire with a group of soldiers, and the light of the fire turned her face red.
Zhuo Jinxuan sensed that she had something on her mind, and there were too many secrets in her that he didn't know. Who was her captor that day? What is the purpose?
"What are you thinking?" Sima Liang walked up to him and took a sip of wine, and handed the wine bag to him, "Take a sip?" ”
Zhuo Jinxuan took the wine bag and took a sip of the liquor into his throat, which made him feel a lot warmer.
They sat down with their backs against a dead tree, and on the way they came, the two were worried about whether they could successfully eradicate the pirates, but they did not expect that after the pirates were eradicated, they were still preoccupied.
Sima Liang saw that Zhuo Jinxuan had been looking at Bai Shuqin's back, and quipped: "She is right in front of you, do you still miss her?" ”
Zhuo Jinxuan took a sip of wine, and only then did he open up to this old friend: "Do you know where the person who controlled Shu'er that day came from? ”
Sima Liang hadn't seen that person, but judging from the information he already knew, it should be someone from southern Xinjiang. However, this place in southern Xinjiang is too mysterious, and he doesn't know. He shook his head and said, "If you want to know the truth, you can only go to southern Xinjiang." ”
"Shu'er has lived in the capital since she was a child, don't you think everything is too strange?" Zhuo Jinxuan's heart was faintly worried.
Sima Liang sighed with emotion: "It's strange enough that you are married to her!" ”
Zhuo Jinxuan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth when he remembered the day he got married, if this was the strangest thing, it must be the luckiest thing for him.
Bai Shuqin smelled the smell of the group of soldiers drinking, and was a little sick to his stomach. These days, morning sickness makes her uncomfortable, and she complains in her heart that there were no condoms in ancient times. Being pregnant was so uncomfortable, she vowed never to let Zhuo Jinxuan go to her bed again in the future, unless he was infertile!
Zhuo Jinxuan saw Bai Shuqin holding the tree with one hand and vomiting on the side, so he quickly got up and came to her side, and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" ”
Bai Shuqin had just finished vomiting, and finally got better, and when he smelled Zhuo Jinxuan's mouth full of wine, he couldn't help but run and vomit. Zhuo Jinxuan just wanted to walk over, but she hurriedly stretched out her hand to ask him not to come.
Zhuo Jinxuan stood motionless and looked at her, and after a while, she finally relented.
She covered her stomach, and when she saw that Zhuo Jinxuan was coming over again, she took two steps back in fright, stretched out her hand to stop him, and said, "Don't come here!" ”
Zhuo Jinxuan's face was full of doubts, he was fine during the day, why is it like this now, is a woman's heart really a needle under the sea?
Before he could figure it out, Bai Shuqin told him: "The smell of wine in your mouth is too strong, and it smells disgusting." ”
Zhuo Jinxuan covered his mouth with his hand and sighed, and sure enough, there was a strong smell of wine. It seems that from now on it is time for him to quit drinking.
When he returned to the capital, before Zhuo Jinxuan could return home, the emperor summoned him to the palace.
Zhuo Jinxuan sent Bai Shuqin to the door, and time did not allow him to send her into the room. He stroked Bai Shuqin's cheek and said softly, "Wait for me to come back." ”
"Hmm!" Bai Shuqin nodded worriedly, judging from his expression, it was not a good thing for the emperor to summon him into the palace.
Bai Shuqin watched Zhuo Jinxuan leave before returning to the house, and the moment she stepped into the mansion, she felt a sense of ease when she returned home.
In the room, as if she hadn't left, there were four or five plum blossoms in the vase on the table, and the fragrance of plum blossoms could be faintly smelled. Next to the vase was a letter with no signature on the envelope.
This is Bai Shuqin's room, and the letter was obviously given to her. She frowned and opened the envelope, revealing a yellowed piece of rice paper that read, "Come quickly!" ”
Bai Shuqin threw the letter and the envelope into the brazier next to the table, and the charcoal fire instantly swallowed up the letterhead, leaving only the ashes that were still reddening.
The letter was put by the people of the Dark Night Pavilion, Bai Shuqin sneered, they were not small, and they were not afraid of being discovered.
Beizhu handed it over to Du Zijun to arrange, since he likes other people's little girls, Bai Shuqin is willing to be a matchmaker. It would be nice if they did.
There are still a lot of things to deal with when she comes back, and Qingluan can't take care of her for a while. Although it was not the first time he had come to the Dark Night Pavilion, Bai Shuqin still felt very depressed.
The candles and torches lit for illumination burn off most of the oxygen, and there is no ventilation underground. In the past, Bai Shuqin didn't feel any other discomfort, but pregnancy made her very sensitive to the air and felt very stuffy in her chest. The old man said that pregnancy changes people's preferences, and she now thinks that this is true.
Nangong Che had been waiting in the main hall for a long time, and when he saw Bai Shuqin coming in, he only raised his eyes.
Although Bai Shuqin is his subordinate, no matter what, he also has the name of the Third Imperial Concubine, so naturally he will not salute him.
She had already guessed Nangong Che's intention of calling her over, so she got straight to the point: "Is it about Han Yu?" ”
Nangong Che showed a hint of appreciation, and he was really a smart person. He didn't sell it either, "The person you asked me to check is interesting." ”
The word funny came out of his mouth, and Bai Shuqin felt uncomfortable.
"How much does the sun and moon teach you?" Nangong Che asked her suddenly.
Bai Shuqin didn't know much about the things on the rivers and lakes, and what Du Zijun heard was only scratching the surface, she shook her head: "I don't understand." ”
Nangong Che appreciated her honesty and said to her: "The Sun Moon Sect is currently the number one sect in the rivers and lakes, and there are many disciples. Han Yu is the young master of the sect, but there is not much news about him outside, don't you think it's interesting? ”
"I don't think so!" Bai Shuqin bluntly said that she was also the country's No. 1 agent at the beginning, but ordinary people had never heard of her. Even if hackers hack into the system, they may not be able to find a trace of her, all this is just a good job of secrecy.
Nangong Che hooked the corners of his mouth and said: "Of course it's not interesting if it's just like this, what's interesting is the things he used to do!" ”
Bai Shuqin showed a trace of doubt, what could make Nangong Che feel interesting must not be an ordinary thing. After all, she used to think that he was a robot and had no emotions for everything.
"Twenty-five years ago, the Sun Moon Sect was not known in the Jianghu sect, but after Han Yu joined, everything was different." Nangong Che showed a playful expression.
"Twenty-five years ago? Are you sure? Bai Shuqin asked rhetorically, "Han Yu's appearance is no more than twenty-five years old, it doesn't matter if he was born twenty-five years ago, right?" ”
"This is one of the interesting places!" Nangong Che said, "In addition, he also has the ability to predict the unknown, and he can even manipulate the gods!" ”
Bai Shuqin looked at him in disbelief, if she said that she could still understand the unknown prophet and manipulate the gods? It's a bit bizarre.
Seeing her shocked look, Nangong Che felt very satisfied. He threw a letter on the table to Bai Shuqin, "Take a look for yourself." ”
Bai Shuqin took the letter and opened it suspiciously. Han Yu's deeds are recorded in detail on it, no one knows his origin, and the first time he appeared was twenty-five years ago.
At that time, the Sun Moon Sect had a dispute with other sects, which almost led to the destruction of the sect, and it was at this time that Han Yu appeared. Not only did he revitalize the Sun and Moon Sect, but he also expanded the number of Sun and Moon Sects to 10,000 in just one year.
It recorded an incident that happened ten years ago, when the whole country did not rain for four months, and the people were in dire straits. At this time, Han Yu asked the people of the Sun and Moon Sect to spread information to the outside world, saying that they could make the heavens rain.
On the day of the spell casting, only a few elders of the Sun Moon Sect were on the scene, and after Han Yu cast the spell, the originally clear sky was instantly closed with dark clouds, but it rained heavily in a moment.
What's even more amazing is that that day, they also saw the thunder gong and thunder mother in the sky making rain, and her movements and demeanor were no different from Han Yu's.
Bai Shuqin sneered and said: "Casting the spell to rain, it is very likely that he has rheumatism, and he has a sense before the rain." Do you believe this kind of trick of pretending to be a god and a ghost? ”
Nangong Che had long expected her to say this, and threw her a national chronicle, "You turned to the day ten years ago!" ”
The National Chronicles are recorded by historians, and the contents recorded on them are all seen by the historians themselves, and even the emperor has no right to change them, so the credibility is extremely high.
To get the national chronicles, Nangong Che is really not simple. Bai Shuqin sighed in his heart, and casually opened the national chronicles to the day ten years ago.
It is recorded that before Han Yu cast the spell, the emperor had organized a large-scale worship to the heavens, and all the hexagrams showed that the drought would last for at least three months.
Han Yu cast a spell half a month after the Heaven Sacrifice event, and there were witnesses in many places who testified that he saw Lei Gong and Lei Mu that day, and the appearance described was not much different. The most powerful evidence is that the historian witnessed it with his own eyes.
However, the people didn't know that it was Han Yu who cast the spell, they only knew that it was the rain that the Sun and Moon Sect begged from God, and the Sun Moon Sect became the first sect in the rivers and lakes.
If it weren't for Bai Shuqin's request to ask Nangong Che to investigate Han Yu this time, he wouldn't have known such an interesting thing.
Bai Shuqin still had questions in his heart, "Since Han Yu is so powerful, how did his wife die?" ”
"Everyone knows that he is married, but they don't know who his wife is, let alone whether she is dead or alive." None of the people sent by Nangong Che found the result, and he guessed that Han Yu was not married at all, and the so-called lady was just a disguise.
Bai Shuqin didn't have much interest in other things, but there was no news about the things he was most interested in. She put Nangong Che's letter and letter back on his desk, "Thank you!" ”
