Chapter 39: Edge
A hint of excitement flashed in Princess Zhaogui's eyes, and she took the key and was pleasantly surprised: "Really? Have you finished the follow-up album? ”
An Jin nodded affirmatively: "That's right, Your Royal Highness Princess, I have nothing to do recently, and it just so happens that the third volume of "The Peerless Princess" has been selling well recently, and the little girl happens to have no creative inspiration in her heart, so she redrew the sketches drawn in the old days. ”
Princess Zhaogui was greatly surprised, she grabbed An Jin's arm and said: "It's really good An Jin, there are no new painting books to see in this palace recently, and they are about to die of idleness." ”
An Jin also smiled and said: "That's just right, it seems that the little girl happened to solve problems for Her Royal Highness the princess." ”
Princess Zhaogui shook An Jin's arm and said a few words with a smile, then her eyes rolled slightly, and she whispered to An Jin: "Miss An Jin, this palace still has a few words to entrust to you." ”
An Jin was puzzled: "I don't know what Her Royal Highness the princess has to teach?" ”
Princess Zhaogui paused, and thought for a long time before continuing: "An Jin, you have to be careful, some time ago, Lu Yunjing, the county system that General Lu admonished to the Holy Lord is probably also something you came up with, right?" ”
An Jin was stunned when he heard this, and recalled Lu Yunjing's words to him that day, and replied hesitantly at the moment: "Back to Your Highness, that incident was what General Lu Yunjing Lu personally thought, and it really has nothing to do with Miss Ben." ”
Princess Zhaogui saw that An Jin didn't admit it, she waved her hand indifferently and smiled: "Forget it, it doesn't matter if you don't want to admit it, but to be honest, the emperor's brother and I have already thought about it, we know Lu Yunjing very well, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is witty, but no matter how witty he is, it is impossible for him to be so shrewd in such a major matter involving the national body, there must be someone else to help, and recalling what Lu Yunjing said to the emperor's brother in the imperial study that day, anyone can hear the partiality in that words." ”
As he spoke, Zhaogui sighed softly: "Speaking of which, it is precisely because of this that the emperor's brother will summon you to the palace because of the third volume of the "Pianpian Gongzi Unparalleled" that you drawn. ”
An Jin raised his head with some confusion, looking at Princess Zhaogui's meaningful eyes, An Jin shivered for no reason.
A sense of fear from her heart instantly spread all over her body, she shivered fiercely, Princess Zhaogui nodded and confirmed: "That's right, it's true, you may be in danger this time, but to be honest, it is only when Your Majesty perceives that you have bad intentions, as long as you truthfully report the situation to Your Majesty, with the emperor's brother's heart, I think he will not be embarrassed for you." ”
An Jin nodded slowly, only to feel that his back was already wet with cold sweat.
Sure enough, as Princess Zhaogui said, the two of them didn't stay in this side hall for long, and someone came in and said, "Your Majesty has an invitation, please Miss An go to the imperial study to meet the saint." ”
Princess Zhaogui glanced at An Jin, nodded with encouragement in her eyes, An Jin smiled reluctantly, followed the palace attendants who came to pass the word and left, and went to the imperial study together.
To An Jin's surprise, before she went to the imperial study, Lu Yunjing had already knelt in the imperial study, and when they suddenly met on this occasion, they were both surprised, but in front of His Majesty the Emperor, the two of them couldn't say anything in person, so they had to pretend that they were fine.
An Jin knelt beside Lu Yunjing and kowtowed deeply.
The emperor waved his hand indifferently and said, "Okay, okay, no need to be polite." ”
After a pause, the emperor continued to ask: "Then again, Miss An, I recently heard rumors that there is a picture book on the market, called "The Peerless Princess", the third volume, in the album, a new character has been added to the two sides than before, it is rumored to be based on Lu Yunjing and General Lu, dare to ask, this picture album is painted by Miss An?" ”
An Jin sighed heavily in his heart when he heard this, and it was really as Princess Zhaogui said, His Majesty the Emperor summoned himself to come here for the third volume of this "Pianpian Gongzi Wushuang".
An Jindeng was very impatient in his heart, and scolded softly: "What's the matter, it's just a picture album, it is necessary to make it so exciting?" And let His Majesty the Emperor know? ”
Immediately, the emperor had already asked like this, and An Jin didn't want to delay too much, so she hurriedly nodded and responded: "Back to the saint, the third volume of "Pianpian Gongzi is unequaled" is indeed written by the little girl. ”
However, Lu Yunjing, who was kneeling on the side, was a little anxious when he heard this, he hurriedly got up and wanted to say something, but he shivered fiercely at the emperor's secretive eyes, and hurriedly lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
After An Jin finished speaking, his face was also covered with cold sweat for a while, and the emperor continued with a smile: "Since the characters in the book are all archetypal references, then I dare to ask, can the details in this book refer to the truth?" ”
An Jin carefully wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and continued: "Back to the Holy Lord, although the prototype of the little girl in the book refers to General Lu and is based on General Lu Yunjing, the actual specific content is all fabricated by the little girl and has nothing to do with the facts. ”
Without waiting for His Majesty the Emperor to continue, An Jin hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, the purpose of the little girl to draw a picture book is to coax the villains in the market, just to have fun for a while, it really has nothing to mean, and there is absolutely no intention to slander the general." ”
When the emperor heard this, he scolded with anger on his face: "What kind of system! Lu Yunjing is an important minister in the DPRK, how can he be slandered so casually, if this matter is not deliberately suppressed by me, General Lu would have been stabbed in the back at this time, and no matter where he goes, he will be pointed at and poked in the backbone. ”
"Do you know that this move is detrimental to the national body, how should those ordinary people think of Lu Yunjing, and how should they think of me who reuses General Lu!"
"An Jin, do you know that your unintentional actions will bring such great trouble to me and General Lu, and will damage our reputation so much!"
An Jin was terrified for a while, in other words, if anyone was scolded by the emperor like this, I am afraid that he would be terrified at this time, An Jin was not scared to pee his pants on the spot at this time, which was already considered good, and the smiling face on His Majesty's face at this time seemed to be extremely terrifying in An Jin's eyes, no different from a ghost.
After the emperor reprimanded him, he continued to ask Lu Yunjing: "Speaking of General Lu, according to the practice of the current dynasty, if someone slanders and seriously injures a senior member of the court in public, what kind of crime should such people be guilty of?" ”
Lu Yunjing's body shook suddenly, he forced a smile in his heart, and said respectfully with a straight face: "Back to Your Majesty, according to the practice of our dynasty, this kind of person should be punished with a felony of the Nine Clans." ”
Lu Yunjing grew up with the emperor since he was a child, and he knew a lot about the emperor's temperament, he knew that this move was because the emperor was intimidating Anjian, not that he had really moved to kill, as the saying goes, the dog that bites people does not bark, although it is inappropriate to put this kind of metaphor on the emperor, but the words are not rough, the emperor really wants to kill people is definitely not like this, the emperor himself has no interest in intimidating the dying person, and handed her over to the Taibao to torture her to obtain a confession, and directly drag it down and behead it.
Lu Yunjing understood that it was completely His Majesty the Emperor's intention to protect himself, so he also continued to follow His Majesty's words.
Sure enough, as he expected, as soon as these words came out, An Jin was trembling with fright, Lu Yunjing lay on the ground and peeked, only to feel that An Jin was trembling like a frightened kitten, and for a while he thought she was extremely cute.
An Jin said in a trembling voice: "But, Your Majesty...... Isn't there a saying that the ignorant are not guilty? The little girl didn't know the laws of the dynasty before. ”
In a hurry, An Jin stammered a little when he spoke: "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, those who do not know are not guilty, so, therefore, the little girl begs Your Majesty, begs Your Majesty to forgive the little girl, the little girl, the little girl is willing to do whatever it takes. ”
Hearing this, the emperor smiled inexplicably: "Oh? At any cost? What to do at any cost? ”
An Jin gritted his teeth and persevered: "The little girl is willing to compensate General Lu at any cost to help the general save his reputation." ”
The emperor nodded and continued to inquire, "Then, according to what you said, how can General Lu's reputation be restored?" ”
An Jin gritted her teeth: "Little girl, little girl was confused for a while, I really don't know." ”
The emperor leaned back on the dragon chair, and a smile flashed on his face that had succeeded in his strategy: "Then according to what I said, how about you marry General Lu Yunjing Lu?" ”
Things have reached this point, and there is no room for An Jin to refuse, An Jin knows that if he refuses on the spot, he will definitely not even be able to get out of the door of this imperial study today, and he will definitely be beheaded by the emperor on the spot.
Helpless, An Jin nodded and responded: "Everything, everything is as Your Majesty said, the little girl is willing to marry Lu Yunjing, marry General Lu, and become the general's wife." ”
The emperor looked at the trembling woman kneeling below with some satisfaction with his chin, he was quite satisfied with today's meeting, since An Jin entered the imperial study, he had been quietly observing An Jin's every move, until now, he could basically be sure that An Jin, this woman, did not have the wolf ambition that he expected, and in the future, she would not do anything unscrupulous to threaten her rule for a while.
Since this is the case, just find a way to tie her up, and it is certainly a good choice to include her in the palace by yourself, however, now the emperor has not married a few concubines, most of them are still for some so-called political marriage, in fact, there is not much actual emotion.
However, under the same roof, the emperor didn't want to watch them die tragically, those concubines were just some timid people, and they would never dare to do anything to disturb the harem, but An Jin was different, she was quite a city government, and her resourcefulness was enough, if she wanted to move to any of the existing concubines, I am afraid that even if those few people joined forces, they would not be An Jin's opponents.
At that time, there will be no peace in the huge harem.
