Chapter 91: Arrogance

Hearing this, the people present almost didn't fall to the ground, this King Ling is really different from ordinary people.

Sure enough, Nangong Jinheng's face finally couldn't hold back, he never thought that Nangong Jinchen would say this, it seems that he really knows too little about this person.

No wonder he was able to mix well in the court of Chu State before, just with this mouth, it is enough to make people angry to death.

Nangong Jinheng gritted his teeth and said: "The Sixth Emperor Brother is really upright and admired. ”

"Thank you." Nangong Jinchen pretended not to hear the meaning of his words and said.

The singing and dancing in the hall have stopped for some time, and at this time, there are quite a few swords and crossbows in the hall, and the hearts of some ministers have also begun to be nervous.

Seeing this, Taifu Xie Qian opened his mouth and said: "I think His Royal Highness King Ling is also drunk, so he is so unscrupulous, and please don't be surprised." ”

"What did Taifu say, is Lone such a cautious person?" Nangong Jinheng said with a smile, took a pot of wine and his own cup and walked in front of Nangong Jinheng, picked up Nangong Jinchen's wine glass and poured it full, handed it to him, picked up the wine glass and said, "Come, Sixth Emperor Brother, I will respect you with a glass." ”

Nangong Jinchen sneered in his heart, he really thought that he couldn't see his intentions?

He reached out to take the wine glass, but when Nangong Jinheng let go, he also let go, and in an instant, the sound of the glass falling to the ground remembered and fell apart.

In the stunned eyes of Nangong Jinheng and everyone, Nangong Jinchen said lightly: "Sorry, I didn't hold it steady." ”

How could Nangong Jinheng not know that he was deliberate, but he was helpless, gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay, come here, bring another cup." ”

Nangong Jinchen said: "The prince has forgotten what I just said? I don't use other people's things. It's almost time for today, and I've had enough of the wine, so it's time to go. If you're not having enough fun, you can continue, but I'm going to go first. Leave. ”

Without waiting for Nangong Jinheng to speak, Nangong Jinchen walked straight out in the eyes of everyone.

Nangong Jinheng was embarrassed, but he was angry but had nowhere to go.

I had no choice but to say: "Since King Ling has left, then this banquet will be dispersed." ”

Everyone got up and took their leave, and they didn't want to stay here any longer.

Nangong Jinchen was about to get into the carriage, but he heard someone behind him shouting: "His Royal Highness King Ling." ”

He stopped and looked back, Xie Qian was hurrying towards him, and he arched his hand and said, "Taifu, is there something?" ”

"Your Highness." Xie Qian arched his hand at him, "Please forgive the old man for saying bluntly, His Royal Highness treated the crown prince at the banquet today, which is really too inappropriate. After all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is respected, and you are like this, and you are really tongue-in-cheek. ”

Hearing this, Nangong Jinchen said disdainfully: "It's too much to worry about." From the time I didn't kneel to the emperor, everyone knew my temperament, but a mere prince can be bigger than the emperor? ”

Xie Qian frowned and disagreed: "Your Highness, I know that you have a deep grudge against Your Majesty, but at least you have to pretend." ”

"Pretending? Like the Prince? Nangong Jinchen snorted coldly, "This king can't do it." I might as well tell the prince that my mother was shot by the prince himself. ”

Therefore, he can't be kind to the prince, not to mention, he doesn't need to be kind to the prince now.

"What?" Xie Qian's pupils dilated suddenly, "Concubine Jing, Niangniang, she...... Does Your Highness have any evidence? ”

Nangong Jinchen shook his head and said, "But although there is no definite evidence, I can be sure." There was chaos in Chengqian's palace that day, he wanted to shoot me, but my mother blocked it for me. ”

Nangong Jinchen's eyes showed pain.

"I see." Xie Qian said a little sadly, "But His Royal Highness has offended the prince so blatantly, and he has lost the face of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, I am afraid that they will ......."

"Taifu's words, Jin Chen understands. But I'm not even afraid of offending the emperor, am I still afraid of them? And my behavior at the banquet today is to clearly tell them that I Nangong Jinchen's ambitions. Nangong Jinchen's tone was arrogant, and the ambition in his eyes was also undisguised.

Xie Qian was stunned for a moment and sighed: "That's it, this right is really fascinating." However, today I have also told Your Highness clearly that I will not participate in His Highness's seizure of the throne. ”

Nangong Jinchen said without hesitation: "I never thought of involving Taifu in it. ”

Xie Qian looked at him in astonishment, not knowing what to say.

Nangong Jinchen said: "Jinchen thank you Taifu for taking care of me over the years, in Jinchen's heart, you will always be a teacher." ”

Xie Qian's heart was shocked, Nangong Jinchen, no matter how he changed, he would never change his heart. He was both moved and admired.

Xie Qian said: "Since Your Highness said so, the old man also told Your Highness that although I will not help Your Highness seize the throne, my affection for Your Highness will never change." ”

Nangong Jinchen smiled slightly, "Okay, if Taifu is fine, then Jinchen will leave." ”

"Your Highness, go slowly."

Xie Qian watched the carriage gradually move away, and his mood was very complicated. Nangong Jinchen's words shocked his heart.

When Nangong Jinchen was in the palace when he was a child, Xie Qian taught him for a while, and Nangong Jinchen's temperament was quite good at that time, very smart, and diligent and studious, so he always liked Nangong Jinchen very much.

Later, Nangong Jinchen went to Yuheng Mountain, and he was still very reluctant in his heart, but at that time, every time Nangong Jinchen came back, he would visit him in the house, and he was also very moved.

And as Nangong Jinchen gets older, the mode of getting along between them has gradually changed from teacher and student to friend, and they have maintained their intersection over the years, although Nangong Jinchen has never told him what he is doing outside, but he also has a faint guess in his heart, until the news that Ye Zichen, the left minister of Chu State, is a fine work of Yun Guo, spread all over the world, and he completely confirmed the guess in his heart.

At that time, he only felt that Nangong Yue Peng was too ruthless, and he really felt a little sorry for Nangong Jinchen in his heart, so he was also willing to give Nangong Jinchen some help in the court, but after he saw Nangong Jinchen's ambition, he thought that Nangong Jinchen would want to win him over, but he never thought that he was so affectionate and righteous, and he didn't want him to get involved in the slightest.

He smiled bitterly in his heart, it was he who lived the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, but at the same time, he was also relieved, and Nangong Jinchen did not disappoint him.

Although his approach made him disagree, he could also understand it, not to mention that Nangong Jinchen now had arrogant capital.

Nangong Jinheng held this banquet today, just to make Nangong Jinchen ugly in front of everyone, but now, it made him lose face, and he was really angry.

Thinking of this, Nangong Jinheng's eyes were cracked, and he crushed the teacup in his hand violently, and the blood immediately flowed down his fingertips, but he didn't seem to feel anything.

"Your Highnessβ€”"

Liuyun and Liuguang were walking in to report the matter, but when they saw Nangong Jinheng looking so angry, they were all stunned in their hearts, His Royal Highness has always been as gentle as jade, no matter what happened, he had never lost his temper like now.

This King Ling is really not a simple person, so he should not report it at this time, otherwise I am afraid that His Royal Highness will be even more angry.

Nangong Jinheng's chest rose and fell violently, he tried to calm his mind, and asked gloomily, "What happened to the things I asked you to check before?" ”

The hearts of the two trembled, and Liuyun took the lead and said: "Your Highness forgives your sins, your subordinates sent out to investigate the people who were attacked in Murong Villa, and there is no news so far, and your subordinates suspect that they may have ......."

Hearing this, Nangong Jinheng's face turned even more blue and white, and he slammed his fist on the table.

The two of them were so frightened that they knelt on one knee, and the streamer looked at Nangong Jinheng's expression in fear, and said, "The assassination of the eldest princess of Changning, which His Highness asked his subordinates to investigate, has already had a result. ”

This news made Nangong Jinheng's mood a little smoother: "Say." ”

"Yes, the assassination of the eldest princess that day was indeed the killer of the Boundless Palace that the concubines in the Chu Palace paid for, and Emperor Xi and Emperor Xi were able to find out so quickly because the Boundless Palace was behind it." Liuyun said.

"What?" Nangong Jinheng looked slightly startled, and said coldly: "Reason? ”

Streamer lowered his head in shame: "Your Highness forgives the sin, and the subordinates did not find out the reason." ”

Nangong Jinheng sneered, and his tone was cold and piercing: "After checking for so long, you brought me such a little news, and now there are even no people." Isn't it that Lone has been indulging you too much lately, huh? ”

The two of them trembled slightly, Nangong Jinheng hadn't been angry with them for a long time, "It's the incompetence of the subordinates, and I ask His Highness to surrender the crime." ”

Nangong Jinheng lowered his eyes, and then said slowly, "That's it, you don't have to investigate these things."

Anyway, if you continue to check like this, you will definitely not find anything.

The two finally breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

Nangong Jinheng said again: "However, Lone still has a task to hand over to you." ”

The two clasped their fists and said, "But by the orders of His Highness." ”

"Liuyun, you go and find out which ministers in the court are King Ling's people. Lone gives you five days, and if you still can't find anything, you don't have to come back. Nangong Jinheng said coldly.

"Yes, Your Highness." Liuyun thought to himself, this time he had to find out no matter what, otherwise he would really have no face to see His Highness.

"Alright, you step aside, the streamer stays."

Liuyun Fox glanced at Streamer suspiciously, and then retreated.

At this time, only Nangong Jinheng and Streamer were left in the hall.

"What does Your Highness command?" Streamer asked.

Nangong Jinheng said: "I want you to ......"

When the words fell, Streamer was stunned in his heart, and then said firmly: "The subordinates will not disgrace their mission." ”

Nangong Jinheng nodded with satisfaction, "Stand down." ”

After the streamer left, Nangong Jinheng leaned lazily on the back of the chair, and tapped the armrest with his index finger.

Although Liuyun didn't find anything, he also had a number in his heart.

Intuition told him that all this was inseparable from Nangong Jinchen.

And Wujie Palace, Nangong Jinchen, there is definitely a connection between the two. From the time he began to investigate why his identity was suddenly exposed, to the time he went to investigate the six princes of Yunguo, and now when he re-investigated the attack on Murong Villa and the assassination of Yue'er, there have always been people who have stopped him, and now he has directly sent someone to kill him.

He suspected that the person behind this should be Nangong Jinchen. And these things almost all involve the Boundless Palace and Nangong Jinchen, so Nangong Jinchen is likely to be the mysterious Palace Master of the Infinite Palace.

When you think about it, you can figure it out.

Now, Nangong Jinchen is marrying Yue'er again, and this time, he will never let him succeed.
