Chapter 360: Prince Xuan
Liang Yiming hurriedly entered the palace and had a secret conversation with Empress Li for two whole hours, during which no one was there, and no one knew what they said!
I only knew that it was already dark when the second prince left, but Empress Li still summoned Qin Yuru, the wife of Zhaohou Mansion.
As soon as they met, he scolded her with a face, and then said directly: "Qin, what's the matter, didn't you promise me that there would be no accidents back then?" ”
Qin Yuru was scolded so much that she lost her temper, and tremblingly knelt down and begged for mercy: "The courtiers know that they are wrong, and the courtiers remember that they did order someone to secretly trick the grandmother who served my eldest sister and delivered her to the northern Xinjiang Forest of No Return.
It is said that the birds and finches can survive if they go, and it is impossible for her, an old and weak woman and child, to come back alive for so many years! ”
Although Qin Yuru said yes on the surface, she was actually quite empty about this matter in her heart.
Because before that, Zhao Jing and his wife broke into the forest of no return and brought out the prince of the Duke of Qi and all the people under him.
It's hard to say if that old lady will have such a skill!
"Hmph, you said no, no, but now someone else has brought back an old eunuch from Northern Xinjiang, and that person keeps saying that he knows Zhao Jing's life experience!"
"Zhao Jing's life experience?" Qin Yuru's eyes flashed, what else did Zhao Jing have, wasn't he her eldest sister's son?
And he is just the eldest son of an ordinary Hou Mansion, why is the queen so nervous? Besides, the old lady who she sent someone to trick into the forest of no return was obviously an old lady who delivered a baby, when did she become an old eunuch?
Qin Yuru hid her stomach with questions, but she didn't dare to say anything in front of the angry Empress Li!
"You don't care about his background, it's time for you to make up for the mistakes you made back then." Empress Li asked her with a cold face.
Qin Yuru cautiously asked her how to make up for it.
"I asked you to kill him back then, but you said that the old lady sent someone to watch closely, and you couldn't do it after so many years of raising it in the mountains and wilderness, so now is your deadline!"
Hearing this, Qin Yuru's face suddenly turned pale, and she trembled, "Now...... Now, in the past, the courtiers were not his opponents, and now that his wings are stiff, I can't do anything about him, the courtiers ......"
It wasn't that she didn't kill Zhao Jing when she was in Nancheng before, but she let him hide every time, and she was warned again during this period, so she had to retreat and ruin his future.
It's a pity that it still didn't work out!
Now seeing Zhao Jing rising step by step, she has become more and more powerless, she has even accepted her fate, and only hopes that her son will successfully attack the title of the Hou Mansion by relying on the protection of the emperor, Zhao Jing will not come to provoke them.
But now Empress Li wants her to take the initiative to attack him, she doesn't dare, but if she dares to refuse Empress Li, it is not easy to mess with here, Qin Yuru lowered her head, feeling embarrassed by both sides!
There was no way, after thinking about it, Qin Yuru finally told the truth, saying that it was an old lady who gave birth to the Qin family who knew that the Qin family gave birth to the child, not the old eunuch!
Empress Li's phoenix eyes widened, and she repeatedly confirmed that Qin Yuru raised her hand and swore that she was absolutely not mistaken, it was definitely the old lady at the beginning, not some old eunuch.
Empress Li was immediately anxious, and unexpectedly let Qin Yuru leave safely, without mentioning the attack on Zhao Jing.
Qin Yuru is not stupid, things have developed so far, she has a little idea of Zhao Jing's identity, but she doesn't dare to speculate anymore, after she goes back, she finds Zhao Gan and explains to him that he is fine, it is best not to provoke Zhao Jing.
Zhao Qian was puzzled, and Qin Yuru impatiently warned that Zhao Jing was no longer something they could afford to provoke.
"Then will you just let him go?" Zhao Qian was still unwilling to Zhao Jing's previous design for him to marry Yelu Qingqing, gritting his teeth and clenching his fists hatefully.
"Anyway, you don't have to worry about it, someone will naturally clean him up when the time comes!" Qin Yuru said helplessly.
Everyone felt that everything was very secret, but they didn't know when they were looked at, and then they were gathered in an inconspicuous house in the capital like snowflakes through pieces of rice paper.
Zhao Jing's eyes flashed, full of calculations!
"You have to be careful, there are quite a few people who have been trying to kill you lately!" Zhao Yu reminded maliciously.
"It's him who waits!" Zhao Jing pinched the empty teacup in his hand and turned it around!
Zhao Yu held a tray with three silver cups in it, which were full of wine, and the wine was fragrant when he came in.
Zhao Jing raised his hand and took a cup, and motioned to the two: "Cheers, for the layout of the past ten years!" ”
"Cheers, the master is finally going to come out!" Zhao Yu's beautiful red lips brushed the silver cup, and his eyes were shining.
Zhao Yu followed with a sip, poured two more glasses alone, and one cup with Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu was puzzled, and went to pour it for Zhao Jing again, but he stretched out his hand to stop him: "No need, the lady doesn't like the smell of wine!" ”
Zhao Yu paused, her eyes flashed with loneliness in an instant, her eyes were distracted, she thought he was ......
He still has a soft spot for that woman after all!
Zhao Jing said that he didn't put down the wine cup and got up to leave, he had to rush to the Guogong Mansion to accompany the lady, recently the lady passed the first trimester of pregnancy, morning sickness was much better, but the mood was a little bad, Mr. Lu said that he had to talk more with him!
"Don't think about it, if he belonged to you, he moved you ten years ago, five years ago, and he wouldn't have left you until now!" Zhao Yu persuaded Zhao Yu.
"I, big brother, I, I just can't let go!" Zhao Yu raised his head and took a sip of wine.
"Stop dreaming! He doesn't belong to you! It was, it is, and it will be! If you continue to be obsessed, this position will probably not be your turn to sit! ”
Zhao Yu has always spoken so directly, as deep as a knife into Zhao Yu's soul, but as he said, if she insists on going on like this, it will only make them unable to get along normally in the future!
That's it, that's it, it's enough to be able to see him every day and know that he's doing well!
Out of the first month, all the departments of the Liang Dynasty returned to normal, and everything was as usual in the court meeting and on duty.
It's just that the difference is that Zhao Jing was promoted from the Ministry of Rites to Dali Temple and served as Zuo Shaoqing.
Dali Temple is a relatively busy department, over the years from all over the country and the criminal department to transmit difficult and miscellaneous cases, there are countless people. k
As soon as Zhao Jing went, he was assigned by Dali Temple to sort out the old cases, and he was busy until sunset before leaving Dali Temple.
As soon as he went out, he met a person who surprised him: Luo Yi.
"Congratulations, you have been promoted one after another in a short period of time!" Luo Yi bowed his hand to greet him.
Zhao Jing looked at Luo Yi's red forbidden army costume and said, "You are back, on duty in the palace?" ”
"That's right, I am the imperial guard, dedicated to protecting the emperor's safety!" This also happens to be the fourth product.
It is not lower than Zhao Jing's grade, but he is different, he is a child of a family, he has been in the officialdom for five or six years, and he has always been very trusted by Emperor Showa.
Luo Yi got straight to the point: "Recently, the palace has been very lively, and I accidentally heard something about you!" ”
Zhao Jing tilted his head: "How did you come up with it and tell me?" "He's the emperor's man, and he didn't need to do that.
"Because I have been in the palace for a long time, I know too many secrets that are unknown to the royal brothers, and I thought about it, although you robbed the people I liked, but you are more decent than them, at least there is only one woman in your backyard!" Luo Yi laughed as he spoke, this reason even felt perfunctory to himself!
Zhao Jing believed it, he raised his lips and said, "So who wants to do it?" ”
Luo Yi's eyes widened, and then he shook his head and smiled: "It turns out that you already knew, it seems that you are more powerful than I imagined, I am optimistic about you!" As he spoke, he pointed to the west of the palace, where Empress Li's Kunning Palace was.
Although it was exactly the same as Zhao Jing's guess of the answer, he still solemnly thanked: "Thank you for informing!" ”
"Be careful, I hope Yun Shu and the Qi State Mansion didn't choose the wrong person!" Luo Yi wanted to pretend to be free, but when he turned his head, he couldn't help but feel a throb in his heart.
A few days ago, he had been running around outside the capital, he wanted to forget the love he had for Qi Yunshu, after all, she was already married, he was not as strong and cheeky as the second prince, and he had to destroy his relationship with Zhao Jing.
But when he came back from the northern frontier, he found that she was still hidden in his heart and couldn't forget it, so he chose to help him!
Zhao Jing is good, she can be good!
Therefore, he took advantage of the convenience of being an errand in the palace to find out a lot of news that Empress Li and the second prince wanted to deal with Zhao Jing, and he just took this opportunity to tell Zhao Jing.
"Your Majesty, you have to be careful!" Zhao Jing reminded behind him that if some people fail in their plans, they are likely to jump off the wall in a hurry!
Luo Yi didn't look back, his hands were raised above his head, and he arched with his back to him, indicating that he had listened, and turned around to set up defenses.
If anyone dares to break in, he, the new commander of the forbidden army, will let them walk around without food!
After this incident, news came out of the palace that Emperor Showa was going to summon Zhao Jing on the second day of the second month of February.
Some people were anxious and felt that they couldn't wait any longer, on the first night of the first month of February, Zhao Jing rarely drank two more glasses of wine in his intelligence station at one time, and did not go to the Qi Mansion to accompany Qi Yunshu, but returned to the Yuqing Courtyard of the Zhao Mansion.
This night, the Zhao Mansion entered the thief, or the assassin, and set fire to the Yuqing Courtyard, causing ten people to die, and Zhao Jing was seriously injured!
However, none of the Assassins who infiltrated the palace escaped, and more than half of them were killed, and the rest were all wounded and captured.
Zhao Hou Mansion reported to the official, originally thought it was just an ordinary assassination case, but he didn't expect that in that group of assassins, he found a waist card to enter the palace.
In order to keep the secret and find out the truth, the case naturally fell into the hands of Luo Yi, the commander of the forbidden army.
Luo Yi forgot to sleep and eat, and interrogated Du Wenqian, the secretary of Dali Temple, for several days, and three days later found out that the mastermind behind the assassination of Zhao Jing was Empress Li of Kunning Palace.
On the imperial study, Emperor Showa was furious.
Even summoned Empress Li and Zhao Jing, who was recuperating from his injuries, to meet him, and the royal secrets that had been deliberately concealed for more than 20 years in the imperial study came to light again.
There is a lot of evidence to prove that Zhao Jingnai is the child born to the Qin family, the most beloved woman of Emperor Showa - the eldest son of the emperor who died at birth in the palace secrets!
Involving the biggest secret of the royal family, Emperor Showa blasted all the people out, leaving only the parties Zhao Jing and Empress Li, the three of them locked up in the imperial study, but a quarter of an hour later, the door opened, and Emperor Showa announced the first holy decree, Empress Li moved out of Kunning Palace and temporarily lived in Shuihe Palace.
Hand over the right to rule the six palaces, not allowed to step out of the palace gate within a year, only allowed to eat fasting and recite the Buddha, and copy Buddhist scriptures.
The second holy decree is to summon the identity of Zhao Jing in the world and crown him as Prince Xuan!
The decree was issued, which caused an uproar for a while.
Everyone was wondering what was going on!
But no one dared to ask Emperor Showa.
And Empress Li has moved to Zhao Jing's side, and now Prince Xuan is no longer the little official he used to be, and no one dares to ask about the coldness of his face and his face thousands of miles away.
Only Luo Yi didn't believe in evil, and quietly asked while escorting Zhao Jing out of the palace to the new mansion: "Lord Wang...... What the hell is going on, are you really a prince? ”
The young man standing in front of him was still the same person he had seen in Nancheng Town, with a handsome face and a gentle smile.
Zhao Jingdan smiled silently, but Luo Yi was not a willing to give up, he habitually broke the casserole and asked the end.
"It turns out that what was rumored in the palace a few days ago is true!" In fact, he had also heard a few words about Zhao Jing's identity, but he didn't take it to heart at that time. At that time, I was still thinking about making fun of Zhao Jinglai, but I didn't expect his identity to be confirmed so soon!
"Thank you for setting the facts straight!" Regarding Luo Yi's enthusiasm in investigating the case before, Zhao Jing said quite sincerely!
"You are the prince, then Ashu is ......"
"Naturally, it's the princess!" Zhao Jing did not hesitate.
Luo Yi's hanging heart let go.
Although he knew that Zhao Jing was not the one who would abandon his wife when he was so rich. But people's hearts are fickle, and some things are always hard to say!
