Chapter 227 Xijin National Fortune
The thirty-fourth year of Zhenrong, the sixteenth day of the first month.
The second prince of Tianyu absconded to Li Wushan on the way to the Ashan Department, and was slaughtered by ambush bandits in the process.
In the same month, there was news from the Tianyu royal family that Qin Xuanlang framed his siblings and brothers for plotting against him and was removed from the royal family.
Emperor Tianyu made an exception to set up his third son Qin Xuanming as the crown prince, gave the daughter of Mrs. Hua Yujing Xuan Paper as the crown princess, the first female official Mu Guanqing as the marriage envoy, and the princess Qin Huai assisted the director from the side.
Seeing this, the person in the bright yellow auspicious dress on the dragon chair suddenly put down the jade she was holding in her hand, and she smiled slightly, as if she was very satisfied with this ending.
"Shuoyue, what kind of charm do you say this Liu Yanxin has, my cousin has never been tempted by women since he was a child, what is unusual about her."
In a blink of an eye, this palace is very spacious, and all the furnishings are made of jade, which shows that the owner of this palace is very fond of jade.
Shuoyue, dressed in a purple palace robe, placed a jade bamboo cup made of jade on a table full of music, and replied in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, didn't Fourteen make it very clear in the letter, she is the Holy Daughter of Chu State and a disciple of Guan Yan, and she can still play the Tianyu Royal Family around, can an ordinary woman have such a plan?"
Hearing such a theory, Luo Yunke crushed the secret letter in his hand and thought for a while.
"As long as she doesn't have other thoughts, I don't care about the rest, among so many pieces of information, only this holy daughter of Chu is okay, so we and Chu are still in-laws."
But the more she said this, the more relieved Shuoyue became, and there was always something in her heart that faintly reminded her.
"Do you think the prince will forget our great cause because of this woman?"
Luo Yunke smiled, couldn't help but straighten up the wide dragon robe, picked up the cup and walked to the window.
"Don't worry, I grew up with this cousin, he is not the kind of person who will forget about state affairs because of women, just to go to Biyun Island, anyway, our business with Biyun Island has not yet settled."
The coral ornaments of Biyun Island have always been Luo Yunke's favorite, but the salt they produce has always been the highest need of the Three Kingdoms, and it has always been the royal family doing business with them.
Shuoyue hurriedly stepped forward to explain her gaffe.
"After all, we've been waiting for so long, and we've finally found a way to crack it, and the slave is just anxious."
Thinking of the efforts that the Xijin royal family has secretly made over the years, Luo Yunke knows that this matter cannot be wrong, and she can understand it.
"I've been in Xijin for hundreds of years, three dynasties earlier than Tianyu, if I hadn't been confused by the small clan of the Ashan Department back then, how could I have been hit hard, anyway, I've been persisting for so many years, and I don't care about these years."
Luo Yunke may not be in a hurry, but Lu Henian is an outlier.
"Yes...... Lu Cheng is pressing very tightly, and these days he is ready to introduce a group of women into the harem. ”
At the mention of the name Lu Henian, Luo Yunke was immediately angry, so he could only take a sip of tea to moisten his throat and said: "This Lu Henian doesn't know what medicine is sold in the gourd, and he has to mix it with the women around me." ”
"If it really doesn't work...... I heard that Guan Yao's concubine has a concubine who has been pregnant for a month, do you want me to secretly take her over and hide her in the harem to take Bei Zhaoyi's place? ”
Shuoyue has done too many things like this, she also used to be Xijin's secret guard, and she has become Luo Yunke's henchman in the royal family over the years, and Fourteen is one of her junior disciples.
"Now it's the only way, if there is no more concubine in my harem who is pregnant, maybe he will personally assist the imperial doctor to diagnose my pulse. If he let the old fox know that I am a daughter, I don't know how much chaos there will be in the court. ”
She put the cup on the side of the bed casually, looking at the huge palace of Xijin thoughtfully.
In order to help Luo Yunke clear her thoughts, Shuoyue put forward what she thought was a reasonable idea, with her understanding of courtiers for so many years, she felt that Lu Cheng's attention to His Majesty was indeed too much, and his eyes were also strange, which was far from what a courtier should have.
"After all, Prime Minister Lu Cheng is the son of Lao Xiangguo, and we can't move him, so we can only work hard for you to be careful. Can...... The slave maid always felt that Prime Minister Lu Cheng was a loyal minister of our Xijin after all, and he might not pose a threat to us. ”
Luo Yunke rubbed his head, she had to support the recent state affairs that were complicated by herself, and she wanted to say that if Luo Yunxi was willing, she would give him the throne, but unexpectedly, this cousin was not interested in the throne at all, and the rest of the royal family were not suitable candidates.
"The less people know about this matter, the better, I still can't rest assured about him, and is there any movement on King Yu's side? Do not be deceived by his appearance. ”
King Yu is not a good thing, although he is his uncle, but he has always been plotting for this throne, three or four times to coerce from it, if it weren't for the emperor's repeated reminders that King Yu could not be allowed to seize the throne, otherwise Luo Yunke would have done his best to assist him in ascending the throne.
"Since he secretly robbed the prince of Yunxi before, although King Yu is looking for it openly and secretly, he would never have imagined that the prince has arrived in Tianyu and met the holy daughter of the Chu State."
Shuoyue was a little proud when she said this, she had been planning for so long, but she didn't expect that a small mistake that was not planned would become the key to victory.
"Now that I think about it, all this is destined by God, Yue Yuan's nerd is just a little beggar who squatted in a dog hole, who knows that she is the holy daughter of Chu State."
Luo Yunke was also full of shock about this matter, she probably knew the whole story from Luo Yunxi's letter and Fourteen's secret report, but every time she heard about Liu Yanxin's decision and feat, she really wanted to see this woman with her own eyes.
Perhaps noticing the faint movement outside the window, Shuoyue gestured with her eyes and said, "Maybe God bless me Xijin, don't think about it, let's rest first." ”
Luo Yunke deliberately moved away from the window and glanced at her, indicating that it was now.
"Who?"
As soon as the words fell, the silk thread in Shuoyue's hand had already gone straight through the window and wrapped around a person's neck.
Shuoyue immediately pounced out the door and grabbed a woman.
"Chen Guiren, why are you here?"
After seeing the woman's face clearly, Shuoyue was also taken aback and asked casually.
Chen Guiren was trembling at this moment, and the ginseng soup he was originally holding was also knocked to the ground, and the whole person couldn't even say a sentence coherently.
"Concubine...... I'm here to deliver ginseng soup. ”
Shuoyue looked her up and down, took her pulse by the way, and casually debunked her identity.
"I'm afraid Chen Guiren didn't come to deliver ginseng soup, I heard that your breathing is not like that of ordinary women, it should be that you have been trained for many years to achieve it."
"I ...... What is Miss Shuoyue talking about, how can I ...... Why can't you understand it? ”
Chen Guiren still wanted to say something, but at this time, Luo Yunke stepped out of the room and said frankly: "Let me guess who is behind you?" King Yu or Lu Henian? ”
Before Luo Yunke could finish speaking, Chen Guiren was already lying motionless on the ground, and a trace of dark blood slipped from the corner of her mouth.
Shuoyue breathed a sigh of relief and reported truthfully. "Your Majesty, she took poison."
"It seems that Lu Henian's hands are getting longer and longer, if he is not controlled well, I am afraid he will really turn the sky upside down." Seeing the special tattoo on the back of Chen Guiren's neck, Luo Yunke clarified her identity and said indignantly.
Shuoyue called two Jin Wuwei for interrogation, and after confirming it, she relayed it to Luo Yunke: "The guards didn't stop her when they saw that she was indeed here to deliver the soup, but she really eavesdropped at the door, what should we do now?" ”
"Since he dares to send a beauty to my harem, why can't I send a beauty to his mansion?"
Luo Yunke stepped back indoors, casually flipped through the picture of the lady on the table, and had a plan.
She never dared to respond to His Majesty's orders, and hurriedly asked, "Then what to do with this woman?" ”
"Let's just say that I accidentally fell into the lotus pond and drowned, harem, it's normal to cheat me in order to compete for favor, even if she is a killer, how can she be considered a no-miss?"
She put down the picture of the lady in her hand and pursed her mouth, as if a dead woman was nothing to her.
"Slave and maid, let's do it." Shuoyue nodded, and she was ready to leave.
"Wait, go and arrange a new identity for me, I want to go and see for myself what Lu Henian wants to do."
She didn't think that in Shuoyue's opinion, it was indeed a major event that was enough to shake the Xijin government, so she hurriedly asked again.
"What? What about the government? ”
Luo Yunke shrugged his shoulders, this action was exactly the same as Luo Yunxi. "Isn't King Yu eager to replace me, then leave the recent political affairs to him to take care of for a while, let's just say that my dragon body is not happy and ready to rest for a while."
"This ...... How can this work? In case King Yu takes this opportunity to ......"
The ambition of the wolf son of the king is well known to everyone, if he really puts this opportunity in his hands, how can the ministers in the court be willing.
"Relax, wouldn't it be more beneficial for us if he didn't do well, and it would be even more difficult for him to accept a sudden good thing, which was enough for him to ponder for a while. Besides, I haven't worn women's clothing in a long time, and the least likely thing to happen will be even more beneficial to us. ”
Luo Yunke took off the crown on her head as she spoke, and it seemed that this decision was the most satisfying decision she had made in the past month.
Looking at His Majesty's smug expression, Shuoyue could only swallow his stomach even if he had a hundred worries in his heart, and only hoped that His Royal Highness the Prince could break the curse of a hundred years ago as soon as possible, so that His Majesty could withdraw from these things as soon as possible.
"Sister Shuoyue, our people followed Tianyu's team all the way to Li Wushan, and took advantage of the chaos to intercept this volume of Taoism from the hands of the second prince of Tianyu."
Soon after Luo Yunke left, a little maid presented a long box and replied cautiously.
