Chapter 264: Heavy Duty

When the emperor saw Zhao Jingxuan avoiding his topic, he couldn't help but snort coldly.

"You know you're wrong? You! It's good to have anything, but the horizon taught by your master is too narrow! “

Zhao Jingxuan couldn't help but think of his master when he heard this, and he couldn't help but sigh.

As secret guards, they are weapons in the Emperor's hands, and there is only one thing they need to do, and that is to do as he is told, and to solve all threats to the Emperor that might endanger his own rule.

However, the Secret Guard only acts in the shadows, with limited rights, and sometimes they are powerless when they encounter things.

It's just such a knife, those who don't know don't understand their horror, but those who know them are afraid of hurting themselves, and they can't wait to get rid of it as soon as possible.

Zhao Jingxuan is not without thoughts about this embarrassing identity.

But he was led into the door by the master, and there was no way out.

"Tell me, how do you make meritorious deeds?"

The emperor looked at Zhao Jingxuan silently, as if he felt bored, and mentioned the matter again.

Previously, Zhao Jingxuan collected the matter of King Cheng colluding with bandits to make money and reported it to the emperor, but the emperor never had the intention of disposing of King Cheng.

Zhao Jingxuan is also young and vigorous, knowing that King Cheng will inevitably regard them as a thorn in his side, if he can't get rid of the hidden danger of King Cheng, the entire secret guard organization will suffer because of this matter.

Since the emperor doesn't care about a piece of evidence, then he will investigate further and make sure that the emperor takes this matter seriously.

It's just that he didn't expect that after he investigated King Cheng's collusion with foreign enemies, someone in the secret guard betrayed them and took him into the army.

If Zhao Jingxuan hadn't met Jiang Li, he was afraid that he would have died.

However, he still insisted that this matter must be thoroughly investigated, and after recovering from the injury, he had been secretly arranged, just thinking about catching Cheng Wang, a slippery loach.

However, it seems that the emperor finally couldn't bear what he was doing, and summoned him directly to the palace.

"In the past, the minister was too radical and reckless of the consequences. Let your majesty fall. However, knowing that His Majesty is in danger around him, the minister can't abandon it! ”

Seeing Zhao Jingxuan's stubborn appearance, he said that he admitted his mistakes, but in his heart he didn't take it seriously at all, the emperor was not very angry, but sighed.

"I am very pleased that Aiqing is so loyal. However, there are some things, don't just look at the surface, some things remove this layer of the surface, there will be unexpected gains. ”

Zhao Jingxuan couldn't help but be clever when he heard the emperor say this, and suddenly realized that the emperor meant something.

The secret guard is only responsible for secretly investigating and grasping the evidence of the crime, and he will not and dare not think deeply about the connection in other things.

What's more, as a royal noble, King Cheng also involves royal secrets.

He also knew that being too involved in it would easily lead to death, and he was just doing his job in his position.

However, Zhao Jingxuan is not stupid, he knows that what King Cheng is doing is to accumulate wealth and establish a network led by himself, which is all in preparation for the completion of a certain big event.

At first, he only thought that the king had the intention of rebellion, but after such a little influence from the emperor, he suddenly thought of a certain possibility.

King Cheng has no heirs under his knees, but only a concubine.

Even if he is in the prime of life, he has already passed the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, and the chance of having an heir is a little slim.

So, why did this prince rebel for?

When Zhao Jingxuan thought of this, a layer of cold sweat couldn't help but break out on his back.

"It was the minister who betrayed His Majesty's trust, and the minister stabbed His Majesty with such a big basket......"

"Well, you don't have to take it personally. These things are true, and you are not all wrong. ”

The emperor waved his hand absently, seeing the change in Zhao Jingxuan's attitude, the corners of his lips rose slightly.

"But there is one thing you do well, you are different from your master, not as pedantic as him. He was afraid that he would die and not know why he ended up like that. ”

Speaking of this, the emperor sighed again.

"Tell me honestly, if you had to do it again, would you do it again?"

Zhao Jingxuan replied very simply this time, "Yes!" ”

"It's a matter of Your Majesty's safety, whether it's again, again and again, the minister will do it!"

The Emperor couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

"You're stubborn, but for the sake of your loyalty, I'll let you go this time."

The emperor's words made Zhao Jingxuan breathe a sigh of relief, but before he could rest assured, his heart was lifted again.

"I want to put you in the place."

"Locally?"

Zhao Jingxuan was startled at first, and soon a thought came to his heart, but he was not very sure.

He took a deep breath to calm his tension before he spoke slowly.

"Your Majesty is going to let me out...... For officials? ”

"Well, I want to appoint you as the superintendent of the imperial history, the official position is not big, but it is the seventh grade. However, although the grade is not high, the authority is not low when patrolling the locality, and the big things are judged and the small things are decided. How is it? ”

When Zhao Jingxuan heard the emperor say this, his heart jumped.

"That'...... Darkguard ......"

When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help but wrinkle his eyebrows, paused, and said, "I'll leave it to you, you can do it." ”

Hearing that the emperor had delegated power to himself in such a way, Zhao Jingxuan felt a lot of pressure at the same time, but he had a completely different mood from before.

The emperor is willing to let him enter the court as an official, which means that from now on, he is no longer just a knife in the shadows!

Suddenly breaking away from this identity, Zhao Jingxuan was undoubtedly very excited in his heart, but he was also nervous.

You must know that if it were not for some special reason, the emperor would not have done this.

People in the position of the emperor have thoughts that ordinary people can't guess, but their every move has a deep meaning that ordinary people can't understand.

Zhao Jingxuan felt a hint of wind and rain from the emperor's move.

But he was very knowledgeable and didn't say much.

He knew that he was just a courtier, and all he could do was be true to his duty.

"Do your Majesty's will!"

The Emperor looked at him like this and nodded with satisfaction, "Do a good job, don't live up to my expectations of you." ”

"In this way, I will give you another grace, this jade plate will be rewarded to you, see this jade plate if you see me, if you are indecided, I will allow you to cut it first and then play!"

When Zhao Jingxuan heard that he was going to bow down again, he saw the emperor wave his hand.

"Don't be in a hurry to thank you, if the errand is broken, come and see you!"

Zhao Jingxuan's expression was stunned when he heard this, and he responded seriously.

"Since there is a problem with King Cheng, you should go and find out all his crimes."

After speaking, the emperor waved his hand and let Zhao Jingxuan retreat.
