Chapter 139: Temptation and Provocation
As soon as she heard this, Fei Ranchu immediately felt that things were not so simple.
It is impossible for the prime minister not to know when Zhao Yufeng will come, he is now choosing this time to ask himself, just to test whether he knows Zhao Yufeng's reaction.
Could it be that my instincts from the first two days were really accurate? Is there a lot of interconnectedness in everything that has happened lately?
Fei Ranchu calmed himself down, went to the table and picked up the teacup, poured himself a cup of tea and tasted it lightly.
She was not in a hurry to speak, but drank most of the tea unhurriedly before opening her mouth slowly.
And the first thing she said was not to answer Fei Zhipu's question, but to give a little comment on the tea she had just drunk.
"This tea tastes like the big red robe of the year before last, although the taste is enough, but it always has a little musty smell, it is indeed not a good tea, the palace drinks it in the palace, it is much better than this."
In fact, the tea that Fei Ran drank in the palace at the beginning was not as expensive as this at all.
She also has more expensive tea, but she always feels unpalatable, with a taste of silver, which is not as good as honeysuckle tea to quench fever and quench thirst.
Fei Zhipu was unwilling to be hung by Fei Ranchu, a little girl, so he pretended to sit opposite her easily, poured himself a cup of tea, and pretended not to care.
"Have you heard any interesting rumors lately?"
This time Fei Ranchu did not continue to pretend to be deaf, she thought about it for a long, long time, as if she suddenly remembered something.
"Oh! When the prime minister said this, the palace really heard an interesting rumor two days ago. I heard that a little guard died in the palace guard camp, and His Majesty was furious because of this, saying that he wanted to punish the person in charge of the guard camp, I heard that ...... It seems to be called Tang Jia. ”
Fei Zhipu's hand holding the teacup clenched suddenly, his fingers were slightly white, and his face was still deliberately pretending to be the same as usual.
"Oh? Is it? ”
"Yes! This is not Your Majesty to let Dark Moon stay in the palace to deal with this matter, I want the palace to say, what is this Tang Jia, it should really be severely punished, the place under his control is the guard camp of the Imperial City Gen'er! ”
"Your Majesty handed over such an important place to him, and even caused a human life, although it was just a small guard, but it was also known to everyone, which is really a loss of royal face."
Fira Chu revealed several key points to Fizhipu.
First, this matter is handled by Darkmoon, who is her own personal bodyguard.
Second, Your Majesty, since this matter is handed over to Dark Moon to deal with, it must be according to Fei Ranchu's intentions, and this matter is to be severely punished.
Third, Fira was tempting at the beginning.
At that moment, Fishipu felt as if a huge wave was surging in his heart.
Obviously, Fei Ranchu should not know anything, but why does he always feel that Fei Ranchu's eyes seem to see through everything.
Could it be that she really already knows something?
"Does the queen mean to be punished severely?"
"What does the prime minister think?" Fei Ranchu did not answer directly, but threw the question back in its original form.
If this Fei Shipu answer was what she expected, then it proved that she was really right.
Fizhipu was silent for a long time, as if he was also secretly measuring.
Fei Ranchu didn't urge him, but continued to drink tea with his head down, and after drinking a bowl of tea, he refilled half a cup of tea.
Finally, he spoke.
"According to the old minister...... This is nothing more than a simple bullying incident, the dead little guard has no family background, no background, and most of the guards in the camp are sons and brothers with prominent families in Beijing, if you really want to investigate this matter thoroughly, I am afraid that there will be more officials involved, and Your Majesty will not end well at that time. ”
His answer made Fei Ranchu finally sure that he was so nervous about this Tang Jia, there must be a connection between the two of them.
Dai Li once said that this matter was handled in the name of the Ministry of Rites, but in fact, Fei Zhipu did it himself.
In Fei Ranchu's impression, these two people have no special connection, there must be a special bond between the two of them, and this bond is not Tang Jia who Fei Ranchu wants to keep?
Fei Ranchu's inscrutable expression made Fei Zhipu realize that he might have unintentionally exposed something, so he quickly stopped the topic and did not continue to discuss it with her.
The two of them were discussing the killing of the guard word by word, but when Fei Jiqing watched from the sidelines, he just felt extremely aggrieved in his heart.
Why did her father refuse to deal with her? Until now, I'm still discussing those inconsequential topics with her.
Could it be that if her daughter is bullied, she is not as good as a nobody?
Thinking of this, Fei Jiqing felt more and more angry in his heart.
She stood up and walked over to Fishiura, shaking his arm and coquettishly.
"Father, I'm afraid that your kindness will be let down by your sister!"
As she spoke, she glanced at Fei Ranchu consciously or unconsciously, and the sarcasm and smugness in her eyes were fully revealed.
Without waiting for Fei Zhipu to answer, Fei Ranchu took a step ahead of him and asked, "How do you say this?" ”
Fei Jiqing wiped the corners of his lips with a handkerchief, deliberately removed all the sharp light in his eyes, and pretended to be pitiful, but still cared about Fei Zhipu.
It was not easy for my father to hold this funeral under pressure, but in the end, my sister embarrassed my father so much at the gate of the house, and said such a rebellious thing as severing the relationship...... If Your Majesty knew about it, I think I would definitely misunderstand my sister. ”
How could Fei Zhipu not know what Fei Jiqing wanted to express?
It's just that...... Now she can't mention this matter to Fei Ranchu at all, she is still holding a grudge against herself because of what happened last time, and the anger on her body is too heavy, if she has to argue with this matter, she will not get any benefit from being afraid of things in the end.
"That's it! Qing'er, speak for your father and the queen, and you don't interject. ”
"Father!" Fei Jiqing couldn't believe what he had heard.
She spoke for her father, why did he let him go in the end?
Just listening to this time, Fei Ranchu laughed twice.
"Guifei, you better eat more walnuts to grow your brain, if you are so open-mouthed every time, I am afraid that it will be easy to offend people in the future."
"You!"
Fei Jiqing was speechless, and looked at her father with an aggrieved face, hoping that her father could make decisions for her, but now Fei Zhipu no longer went to see Fei Jiqing, but waved her hand to let her go down.
She couldn't believe why all the people today didn't look to her.
