Chapter 28 Consultation
Just as he was about to reach for the remaining powder floating in the boiling water, Sequoia threw out his whip and pulled him back in time, and the handyman pounced on him and pinned him to the ground, finally calming him down.
The little palace maid looked at the little eunuch in shock, she never thought that her younger brother, who had always been tame, would make such a crazy move.
She touched the little eunuch's wet hair with trembling hands, and looked at his sallow face, and tears couldn't help but fall.
"Sister?" The little eunuch looked confused, "Why are you crying?" Who bullied you? ”
The little palace maid hugged her younger brother and choked up: "Do you blame Sister? ”
The little eunuch shook his head: "Sister, I'm so uncomfortable, can you let them let me go?" ”
"Okay, Sister and Niangniang said to go."
The little palace maid straightened her clothes, knelt in front of Su Nian uprightly, and said, "Please be gracious to the mother and let the slave and maid brother have a way to live, and the slave and maid's fault will be borne by one person." ”
"Can you write?"
"Yes, the slave and maid learned to write with their father before entering the palace."
"That's good." Su Nian nodded, "You write down everything you know, and I'll send you away." But in your brother's case, be mentally prepared. ”
"Slave and maid thank you for your kindness." The little palace maid grabbed the ground with her head and banged.
After a while, the little palace maid took a piece of paper full of "incriminating evidence" and handed it to Su Nian, who glanced at it a few times and handed it to Yue Jin.
After seeing this black and white letter, Yue Jin had the last trace of disillusionment in her heart about Younan, and the things described in it explained Younan's abnormality recently.
What scared Yue Jin the most was that it was mentioned that the little palace maid had seen Younan meet a ghost-faced man.
It's no wonder that on that day, Younan opened her mouth and asked if she had seen anyone, as if she was sure that person would catch up with her.
If everything is a game, then when is the game played, by whom, and what are the bets? A series of questions followed, and Yue Jin became so confused for the first time.
She clenched the hand in her sleeve and secretly made up her mind that she would not sit still.
But she knows very well that there is no way to find the answer by relying only on her current ability, and rash action may be counter-killed, what should she do?
The queen's intentions were too obvious, and she didn't want to get involved in such a troublesome matter as taking the heir; The other co-opters, except for saying some good things, have no real skills and are not good choices
Yue Jin set her eyes on Su Nian.
She took the initiative to stretch out her hand to Su Nian and said, "Su Nian, let's form an alliance." ”
"Alliance?" Su Nian didn't move, "What do you want from me?" What benefits do I get? ”
"I want to ask you to help me investigate the matter of Bei Li, this is also beneficial to you, isn't it?"
Su Nian showed an interested expression and said, "Princess Heqin from Bei Li, turn around and investigate the matter of Bei Li. ”
"I'm just a pawn on the surface for them now, and I'm still a disobedient pawn." Yue Jin paused, "When they find a replacement, there will be nothing to do with me, I just want to protect myself." ”
"Well, that's a good reason, but it's not enough to impress me."
"If you help me, I will return the crown princess to you."
Yue Jin's words are quite precise, she did not use words such as "give" and "send", but said "also".
This time, she grasped Su Nian's mind extremely accurately.
Sure enough, Su Nian laughed and said, "Yue Jin, do you know what you're talking about?" ”
"Yes."
"It's not as simple as a sentence." Su Nian sighed, "You should know, why even if I have a little imperial grandson, I can only be a side concubine, right?" ”
Yue Jin knew, but she didn't know whether she should say she knew.
"Because King Pingyuan, no, my father ...... him" Su Nian hesitated and said slowly, "I was convicted of treason, and the Su family was beheaded." ”
Treason, Yue Jin's heart was lifted.
Suddenly, she remembered the last time she saw Su Yu's eyes, there was grief, helplessness, reluctance, but no ambition.
How could a man like him, who could save the children of another country from the side of the road, bear to hurt his own compatriots? How can you step on morality and etiquette to climb to the top of power?
Anyway, she would never believe it.
"You're not going to believe it, are you?" Looking at Su Nian's expression, Yue Jin was a little worried.
"Yes."
"How can you not trust your father?"
Su Nian said seriously: "It's not a question of whether you believe it or not, but the facts are right in front of you, and it's not that I can't change it if I don't believe it." ”
"He definitely won't." Yue Jin emphasized word by word.
"You know him better than I do, don't you?" Su Nian said softly, "I was four years old that year, and I was able to survive because I was secretly taken out incognito by the old mother of the family.
"The most ridiculous thing is that I didn't know that King Pingyuan was my father until three years ago, and what awaited me was accountability. If His Highness hadn't married me against all the odds, I would have been able to ask my father in person now. ”
Speaking of this, Su Nian's eyes showed bitterness and helplessness.
"Su Yu I know, he will never do this." Yue Jin emphasized again.
"Agreed."
It was Xiao Yongqing's voice, and Yue Jin and Su Nian both looked over in surprise.
Xiao Yongqing paused and continued: "The eldest brother said that if King Pingyuan really wanted to rebel back then, the current Han Su should change his surname. ”
Your Highness. Yue Jin thought about it in her mind, and vaguely remembered that she had said in the information she had checked before coming to her relatives that Xiao Yongxian was the most talented prince and the first to be canonized as the crown prince, but he resigned as the prince and became a monk, as for the reason, there is no detailed record in the information.
"Don't discuss these things outside in the future." Xiao Yongqing reminded.
In addition to the redwoods, several handymen in the house couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat.
"Why did His Highness come all of a sudden?" Su Nian asked.
"You go home with Princess Shunhe first." Xiao Yongqing said to Su Nian.
Realizing what Xiao Yongqing wanted to do, Yue Jin and Su Nian blurted out at the same time: "Your Highness......"
"Please take her back first." Xiao Yongqing said this to Yue Jin, with a meaning that could not be distinguished.
Yue Jin was still a little hesitant, and Sequoia shook her head at her.
Su Nian picked up Yue Jin and left there quickly.
Until she got into the carriage, Yue Jin's hands were still a little trembling, and she asked Su Nian: "Does he really want to ......?"
Su Nian looked at the changing street scene outside the car window, and said in a deep voice after a long time: "The only way to keep it a secret is to let the people who know it disappear." ”
