Chapter 81: Two-phase utilization
The conversation between the two just now did not deliberately avoid Junchen, he glanced back at Chen Sansi and asked more: "Does the third prince want to go to tea with General Ben?" ”
Chen Sansi shook his head and sneered: "I'm not interested in folk tea, the general should go by himself." ”
Hearing this, Zhou Shiren glanced at Chen Sansi, who was indifferent, and his eyes were a little pity.
How can I say it, if one day Chen Sansi knew that the opportunity to see Prince Changrong slipped in front of his eyes like this, he should vomit and vomit a mouthful of blood, right?
The vehicle was waiting in front of the King's Mansion.
In order to be more in line with her identity as a 'lifter', Qi Changrong specially ordered someone to prepare a low-key and luxurious car, without the logo of the East Palace.
will not let anyone implicate her with Donggong.
Qi Changrong stretched out his hand to Jun Chen, ready to help him, and said gently: "General, please." ”
Jun Chen was in a delicate mood, and he didn't know what kind of medicine was being sold in this person's gourd.
He stretched out his hand to block Qi Changrong, glanced at her meaninglessly, and jumped up by himself.
Withdrawing his hand casually, the corners of Qi Changrong's lips curled slightly, and the smile in his eyes did not decrease, which was very pleasant.
Until finally, Junchen noticed that there was something wrong with the direction of the carriage, and it seemed that they were not going to the tea shop they frequented.
"Your Highness has found a good place to go again?"
Qi Changrong didn't answer, but took out a bunch of small food boxes containing all kinds of delicate snacks from under the small table, and asked him with a smile: "Does the general eat?" ”
Junchen: "......"
Seeing that he didn't move, Qi Changrong didn't mean to be polite, so he picked a piece of jujube paste cake and tasted it carefully, answering his previous question.
"Don't go to the tea shop to drink tea today, Lone does have a better place to go, Miss Zhao held a camellia party in the house, invited the young boy and girl in Beijing to participate, Lone was fortunate to get an invitation."
Junchen: "......"
"I didn't want to go, so as not to cause trouble to Miss Zhao, but I thought that if I didn't go, I was afraid that Miss Zhao would be sad and worried."
Junchen: "......"
"Thinking about it, I still need to go and say hello, in order to avoid suspicion, it is not good to go alone, so I have to go with the general."
Junchen: "......"
Faced with the silence of a certain guy, Qi Changrong thought a lot.
As the saying goes, if you don't explode in silence, you die in silence.
She doesn't want to be the object of extinction, but she is struggling on the verge of death with every word and deed.
After a pause, looking at the obvious blankness in Jun Chen's eyes, she asked curiously, "Didn't the general receive an invitation from the Zhao Mansion?" ”
“……”
Jun Chen, who had been silent, heard this, and his whole person was not good.
Can he still not understand Zhao Yueqiu's careful thoughts?
was obviously afraid that he would block the communication between her and Qi Changrong, so he deliberately ignored him when he issued the invitation.
The girl's careful thinking is getting more and more.
Junchen was holding back a fire all the way, and his expression was not very good.
When the carriage arrived at Zhao's mansion, Zhao Yueqiu had already heard the news and was waiting outside the mansion, and the thirteenth princess Qi Ziruo came with her.
In front of outsiders, Junchen didn't want to scold her, so she had to hold back the fire.
Zhao Yueqiu was stared at by Jun Chen's deep gaze, and endured that creepy feeling, she took out her most decent side, and smiled softly at Qi Changrong: "Your Highness is here to appreciate your face, and Yueqiu is overjoyed." ”
Zhao Yueqiu was dressed in a lilac flowing fairy dress, and her every move was as elegant as the person in the painting.
With a delicate face like a flower, and a gesture of wanting to refuse and welcome under the flow of eyes, a man can't help but be tempted when he sees this beautiful scenery.
However......
Qi Changrong is a fake man, incomprehensible and amorous, in her eyes, there are only those that can be used and those that cannot be used.
Now Zhao Yueqiu is available, so her attitude is unprecedentedly good.
"Since it was Miss Zhao's invitation, Lone should naturally go to the appointment."
If it were someone else, maybe the invitation wouldn't even be able to enter the East Palace, let alone reach her.
Zhao Yueqiu understood Qi Changrong's words, and a faint joy slowly rose from the bottom of her heart, and two red clouds flew on her cheeks like porcelain jade, which was even more shy.
Faced with the sight of such a concubine having a concubine, Jun Chen stood between the two with an expressionless face, and said coldly: "Cousin, just entertain other guests in the house, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be received by me." ”
Zhao Yueqiu shuddered at the coldness of his words, didn't dare to pluck the hair on the tiger, and reluctantly said after coughing: "In this way, it will trouble my cousin." ”
After speaking, she looked back three times in one step, and led Qi Ziruo to leave reluctantly under the embrace of her personal maid.
Seeing Zhao Yueqiu showing a look of deep feet of mud, Jun Chen suddenly glared at Qi Changrong angrily.
Looking at her face, Jun Chen's anger increased instead of decreasing.
It's all her fault, why does a man look so delicate?
It's just a matter of being exquisite, but he wants to go to his cousin to attract bees and butterflies!
Now it's okay, my cousin's desire to be the crown princess is afraid that it will become stronger and stronger.
It was impossible for him, a cousin, to pull his cousin out of the quagmire.
Qi Changrong touched his nose, a little embarrassed, and hurriedly promised him: "General rest assured, Lone has nothing to think about Miss Zhao, and everything you think will not come true." ”
It's okay if she doesn't say it, but when she says it, the more unpleasant Junchen looks at her.
Why not marry?
Yueqiu's cousin is really afraid that she has fed the dog.
Facing Jun Chen's wordless accusation, Qi Changrong shrugged his shoulders innocently: "It's just a different place to drink tea, the general doesn't have to mind." ”
Hearing her say this, although Jun Chen was still angry, he was a smart person in the end, more rational than those vulgar people who only had love in their hearts, and he understood a little bit when he heard it.
The two walked side by side, slowly entering the house,
Sure enough, as Qi Changrong said in his words, she really just changed places to drink tea, and outsiders only knew that the prince of the East Palace had agreed to the appointment of the girl of the Zhao family, but they couldn't see her true face.
The bamboo pavilion of Zhaofu is quiet and elegant, surrounded by heavy green bamboos, Junchen's thoughts are becoming clearer and clearer.
He believed in Qi Changrong's character, and since she said that she had no wrong thoughts about her cousin, it meant that he had never thought of marrying her cousin as the crown princess.
In this way, she approached her cousin for only one purpose - to take advantage.
Although my cousin is well-known outside, she is a daughter's family in the end, and her role is very limited.
She is deeply favored by her uncle, not so much that the prince wants to use her cousin, but that the prince wants to use Zhao Chengxiang.
Jun Chen's eyes were full of scrutiny: "What does Your Highness want to do?" ”
Qi Changrong sniffed the breeze with a faint bamboo fragrance, and his expression was calm and indifferent: "Taishi Jiang is the only one in the court, so he has to find a few opponents." ”
Jun Chen asked: "So His Royal Highness has taken a fancy to the Zhao family?" ”
Qi Changrong did not deny it: "It's not so much that Lone has taken a fancy to the Zhao family, but that Lone and the Zhao family have taken a fancy to each other, otherwise how could Lone appear here?" ”
"Prime Minister Zhao Cheng can't be wished by His Majesty."
Jun Chen's voice calmly pointed out the facts.
The world says that he is stubborn and has never had the royal law in his eyes, but who knows that his temperament is almost the same as Zhao Li?
It is said that the nephew is like an uncle, and his stubbornness is both Zhao Li.
"Lone knows, but so what?" Qi Changrong smiled faintly: "In the eyes of the courtiers, Lone represents the royal family, and Lone is standing here at the moment, what to do next, I think they know it in their hearts." ”
"Your Highness is not afraid of His Majesty's wrath?"
Qi Changrong's lips did not change: "In the eyes of my father, Lone represents the future of the Great Jin Dynasty, the meaning of the prince, even if my father is tired of Prime Minister Zhao, he has to re-evaluate his value." ”
She is like an indestructible bond that connects the royal family and the Zhao family.
Jun Chen understood what she meant, was silent for a long time, and said: "Jiang Bowen has been operating in the court for decades, and he has worked hard to win over the courtiers, which cannot be shaken by His Highness in a few days or months. ”
This is an inescapable problem.
Most of the people in the court are Jiang Bowen's people, as long as Jiang Bowen gives an order, it is not an exaggeration to say that the East Palace is embattled.
If it weren't for the fact that there was only one prince in the Great Jin Dynasty, maybe Jiang Bowen would have the idea of replacing the East Palace.
"Lone knows, so there is an important matter that needs the general's help now."
Under Jun Chen's puzzled gaze, Qi Changrong said slowly: "I hope that the general can ambush Jiang Bowen on his way back to Beijing. ”
Jun Chen was shocked, and the Buddha beads in his frightened hands almost fell to the ground.
He said: "Your Highness wants to kill Jiang Bowen?!" ”
This decision is not good, and it is even a little ridiculous.
As the leader of the court, Jiang Bowen's role in it is unimaginable, and once he dies, the courtiers will be in chaos.
Moreover, there is no evidence that he collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, let alone that he was a fine work sent by the enemy country, and it was too nonsense to kill the Taishi who was important to the Great Jin Dynasty with his inexplicable suspicions.
The prince has always been calm, how could he suddenly have this idea?
Faced with Jun Chen's rare doubts, Qi Changrong had to try to explain clearly.
Reliving a life, Junchen was the only surprise she didn't expect, how could she let him down?
So, she explained: "The general misunderstood, he didn't want Jiang Bowen's life, he just wanted him to return to Beijing later." ”
No matter how much she wants to kill Jiang Bowen, she will not choose to do it at such a time.
It's too simple to want a person to die, and it's rare how to publicize the ugly things he has done.
Even if she wants to die, she wants Jiang Bowen to die in the scolding of the people of the Great Jin Dynasty, instead of becoming a loyal minister in the hearts of the people after he makes meritorious contributions.
Only in this way can the hatred in her heart be dissolved.
Jun Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and changed into that gentle appearance again.
"It's not difficult to delay his return to Beijing, but the difficult thing is that it's just a few more days, does Your Highness think the Xie family will be able to compete with him?"
"The Xie family can't do it, then what about the Yang family, if the Wang family is willing to wade into this troubled water, and the Sun family can't look at him...... What is lonely is that Jiang Bowen is the enemy of all the courts. ”
Jiang Bowen is suspicious, and no one can believe it.
He may have made enemies in the DPRK for many years, but he could never know every enemy well.
Once he is undetermined and begins to doubt, the entire court will become the object of his suspicion.
It doesn't matter whether those people are really enemies of Jiang Bowen, the important thing is that in Jiang Bowen's eyes, they are all imaginary enemies.
Now there is only one fuse, a fuse that makes Jiang Bowen completely impatient.
