Chapter Ninety-Five: Today's Shame

Congratulations to Master Zhou, but he has been promoted by one level. The eunuch said with a smile.

This is mocking Zhou Rui'an.

Zhou Ruian said lightly: "What my father-in-law said," After a pause, he glanced at Luo Bei: "Come on, send your father-in-law out!" ”

The eunuch who announced the decree was so angry by Zhou Rui'an's attitude that his face turned even paler, and he threw himself into the dust and turned to leave.

As soon as the eunuch left, Luo Bei hurriedly returned to the study: "Master, what the hell is going on?" ”

Zhou Rui'an's eyes flashed, "It seems that my estimate was wrong...... However, there is nothing wrong with that. ”

He didn't expect that the queen didn't choose Qin Guifei, but directly attacked him, in addition, this incident also proved that Dong Cheng's disappearance was indeed related to the queen!

"Send someone to keep an eye on Fang Mingkun! Definitely find Dong Cheng as soon as possible! Zhou Ruian said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" Luo Bei replied with a solemn expression.

Luobei knew the seriousness of this matter, so he naturally didn't dare to be careless, but fortunately, because Fang Mingkun had kidnapped Jiang Qingyue before, and then Jiang Qingyue came back without danger, and then Zhou Rui had palpitations, and specially sent someone to check Fang Mingkun's old bottom again, it can be said that the power of the Dingguo Mansion in the capital is now in Luobei's hands.

Zhou Rui'an continued: "Also, over there in Jinyiwei, you send a fresh face over to say hello, so that they can calm down and not come to the mansion to show up." ”

Zhou Rui'an has been the commander of this Jinyi Wei for many years, and he has already held the Jinyi Wei in his hands, and Emperor Xuande wants to take back the authority in his hands by virtue of his dismissal, I am afraid that he will be disappointed.

However, now Zhou Ruian does not plan to expose his strength too early, especially now that Emperor Xuande has a heart for him, so he asked Luobei to spread the word, even if he is removed, he must let Jinyiwei's subordinates be a little calm.

Luo Bei shook his head and led the order.

Jiang Qingyue came soon, she heard the news, knew that Zhou Rui'an had been removed, and came over to visit Zhou Rui'an with an anxious face.

At this time, Zhou Ruian was in the study, with a sad face, and there was still a little depression between his eyebrows, looking extremely melancholy.

Zhou Ruian saw Jiang Qingyue and forced a smile: "You also got the news, didn't you?" Don't worry, it's okay if I'm dismissed, I can just stay at home and spend more time with you, I was really busy some time ago. ”

He forced a smile on his face, as if he didn't want Jiang Qingyue to worry about him.

Jiang Qingyue looked at him silently for a while, so long that Zhou Rui'an had a bad premonition in his heart.

Jiang Qingyue opened his mouth and said: "You have been in charge of the Jinyi Guard for so many years, with your wrist, I'm afraid that this Jinyi Guard has already obeyed you, right?" I don't think that a holy decree can make you lose control of the Jinyi Guard, which is ...... It's just what the emperor himself thinks. ”

Her father, who had no chance, would not have known what kind of tiger he had raised.

But it's no wonder that Emperor Xuande, after all, Zhou Rui'an was 'Jun Mochou' in his previous body, he recognized himself to control Zhou Rui'an in the palm of his hand, so he naturally wouldn't be on guard, in the eyes of Emperor Xuande, Zhou Rui'an's life and death were just between his thoughts.

However, Emperor Xuande didn't expect that he would be pitted by his own queen.

Far from it.

Zhou Rui'an: "......"

Jiang Qingyue continued: "What's more, with your ambition and mind, a small Jinyi Guard commander, you may not be able to see it, even if you are removed, you will not have the slightest nostalgia, what is there to be depressed!" ”

Zhou Rui'an: "......"

He knows, he knows! His Qingyue is really not comparable to an ordinary woman, he knows it, he has tried so many times, why don't he give up?

Again, Zhou Rui'an wanted to stage a drama of being comforted by a beautiful man in distress and failed, but fortunately, the prince had long been used to it, and he didn't even feel frustrated, so he accepted the result very calmly.

“…… That Qingyue, why are you in such a hurry? Zhou Ruian asked puzzled.

Since she didn't care about his dismissal, why was she in such a hurry?

"Is something wrong? How could the emperor remove you from your post for no reason? Is this the revenge of the Dingguo Mansion? Jiang Qingyue asked with a solemn expression.

Zhou Ruian smiled bitterly, how could he always ignore her intelligence and cleverness?

He sighed, "I let the Dingguo Mansion lose such a big person, of course the queen will not let me go, don't worry, it's just a normal thing, don't worry." ”

Jiang Qingyue raised his eyebrows: "Is that so?" You're not the commander of Jinyiwei, will Concubine Qin still ally with you? And you have offended so many people before, and most of them want to seek revenge on you, but now that the emperor is disgusted with you, they will not let go of this opportunity, and your trouble is big. ”

Zhou Rui'an: "......"

Jiang Qingyue glanced at him and said lightly: "You are always like this, you always show a serious exaggeration for things that are in your chest, and those things that are really important, you are used to acting lightly. ”

Zhou Ruian smiled lightly, a gentle smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, he was really happy, how lucky he was, he could have a person who had the same heart as him.

Being seen through by a person is not a good thing for him, but being seen through by her, he is only left with irrepressible joy.

"Qingyue, you have to understand that as a superior, it is a very dangerous thing for your subordinates to see through your emotions, so I can only be light-hearted." Zhou Rui'an explained.

"Isn't it because you don't want me to worry?" Jiang Qingyue squinted at him and asked.

Zhou Ruian held her hand and said softly: "Because, as long as it is related to you, no matter how I hide it, I can't be light." ”

Jiang Qingyue pursed his lips and pulled out his hand pretending to be without a trace, but he stubbornly held it and didn't let go: "Qingyue, you have to know one thing, I can deal with any tricky matter, whether it is the Dingguo Mansion or the emperor, I have the confidence to face it, but you, you frown, I am helpless." ”

Jiang Qingyue's eyes lit slightly, and he stubbornly withdrew his hand: "This time the queen made a move on you, the emperor wouldn't listen to her so easily, but find out the reason?" ”

Zhou Ruian sighed slightly, what could he do? He wanted to fall in love with her, but she only gave him advice.

However, Zhou Ruian was a little hesitant about this matter, and he didn't know if he should tell Jiang Qingyue that he hadn't told her about Dong Cheng's disappearance.

Jiang Qingyue understood his thoughts as soon as he saw his expression, and couldn't help but make a pretty face: "By the way, this should be considered your secret, right?" Can you tell me? After all, I'm ...... Not! ”

Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Ruian took her into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her lips fiercely.

Jiang Qingyue symbolically struggled twice, and then found a faint anger on his body, he was angry, so, this is a punishment?

Don't ask Jiang Qingyue how he knows, he is self-taught, this is probably also a woman's instinct?

His kiss was more menacing than any before, so that she had almost no ability to resist, and let her brain gradually become cloudy, in this regard, probably a man's instinct?

Jiang Qingyue will rarely lose his mind, and only he can do it.

After a long time, Zhou Ruian gently let go of her, and his voice was hoarse and low: "If you say such things again in the future, I will punish you like this, did you hear that?" ”

Jiang Qingyue's brain has not yet recovered the ability to think, and only paste is left in it.

Zhou Ruian continued: "Nod and say okay." ”

Jiang Qingyue obeyed the voice in his ear and nodded obediently: "Okay." ”

Her cheeks were flushed from the kiss, and her eyes were also covered with a layer of mist, and his eyes couldn't help but darken.

But now Zhou Ruian doesn't plan to do anything to her, because there is still something to say.

"You have to remember, you are just Jiang Qingyue to me, the only woman I love, no matter whose daughter you are, no matter what your background is, I have complete trust in you, no matter who is against it, no matter how difficult it is, I will condemn you! Not even you have the right to leave my side! Zhou Ruian looked at Jiang Qingyue's eyes and said solemnly.

This was the first time Zhou Ruian had spoken to her in such a serious tone, Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but be shocked, she heard his seriousness, and understood what he meant by this.

Indeed, since she knew her life experience, her feelings for Zhou Ruian have always been her most hesitant and contradictory, and there are really too many obstacles.

But just like when they were together, he didn't know these questions, on the contrary, he had thought about them a thousand times, but he still never hesitated to extend his hand to her.

The more Jiang Qingyue thought of this, a deep sense of guilt welled up in his heart, she had always been more worried, but he never hesitated.

Thinking of this, Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but reach out and hug him, buried his head in front of his chest, and said in a sullen tone: "I'm sorry." ”

I'm sorry, she always has too many concerns, I'm sorry, she can't always be as brave as him.

In the face of feelings, she was sluggish and didn't know how to express it, and he never learned, he just treated her with the purest feelings.

What a precious feeling, he is the prince of the King of Jin and the leader of Jinyiwei, and it is his instinct to disguise, but when facing her, he shows his truest side and treats her with the most sincere feelings.

"I like you very much, yes, but Qingyue, I want to hear you say three other words." Zhou Ruian touched her head and said with a smile.

In fact, he should be glad that he met her when she was still ignorant of feelings, and not too many people have found out about her goodness, she is already his.

Zhou Ruian couldn't help but feel proud of his vision at this time.

Jiang Qingyue raised his head, looked at him with a wink, and said, "Since I am the person you trust the most, what did the queen do?" ”

Zhou Rui'an's eyes flashed, and finally sighed: "Dong Cheng is missing." ”

In a word, Jiang Qingyue understood the whole thing, and she couldn't help but gasp: "If Dong Cheng is in the hands of the queen, then you ......"

Zhou Ruian shrugged his shoulders: "So I was removed today." After a pause, he continued: "The queen's trick is really clever, in this way, my alliance with Qin Guifei will collapse, maybe the emperor will still suspect Shangqin Guifei, kill two birds with one stone, I underestimate the queen." ”

In the end, Zhou Ruian couldn't help but squint.

Jiang Qingyue understood Zhou Rui'an's words, the queen's move, using a Dong Cheng, made Emperor Xuande believe that Zhou Rui'an intended to use the death of King Jin to plot misdeeds, Zhou Rui'an and Qin Guifei are natural allies, as a superior person, with the emperor's position, it is inevitable to wonder if Qin Guifei is also involved in this matter?

Even if Emperor Xuande doesn't fully believe it now, as long as a seed of doubt is planted, sooner or later there will be a sigh, and this seed will take root and sprout.

On the other hand, Zhou Rui'an was removed from his post and lost the rights in his hands, which in the eyes of Qin Guifei and Zhao Tianqiao, Zhou Rui'an has lost the capital of the alliance with them, and a person who cannot bring them benefits is bound to be given up by Qin Guifei, and even Qin Guifei will complain about the trouble caused by Zhou Rui'an, so that she is suspected by Emperor Xuande.

When the time comes, Zhou Rui'an has lost the trust of Emperor Xuande, and Concubine Qin will not help him, plus for so many years, Zhou Rui'an has offended the minister under the leadership of Jinyiwei, and Zhou Rui'an has become the target of public criticism and is slaughtered by others.

Thinking of this, can Jiang Qingyue not be in a hurry?

"So what are you going to do to save yourself now?" Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but ask.

Zhou Rui'an didn't see the slightest embarrassment on his face, he lowered his eyes, covered the emotions in his eyes, and said in a light tone: "The queen has been suppressed for too long, and it's time for her to be proud." ”

Jiang Qingyue was slightly stunned, she understood what he meant, but she couldn't guess his intentions.

According to Zhou Rui'an's meaning, the queen has been in a state of disadvantage and suppression before, and even the phoenix seal has been lost, which can be described as humiliating, and now the queen can't help but fight back, and it is so smooth at the beginning, the queen will definitely feel proud.

But what good is it for them to make the queen proud?

Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but ask.

Zhou Ruian gently touched her head and smiled meaningfully: "Nature is beneficial, if you don't let her be proud, how can you raise her ambition?" ”

Jiang Qing glanced at her more and more puzzled, and she couldn't understand Zhou Rui'an's layout more and more, but she looked calm and relaxed, and she was not worried about the situation in front of her.

Jiang Qingyue frowned and said suspiciously: "The ambition of raising the queen? All she wants is to get the position of prince for the second prince, isn't this ambition big enough? ”

Zhou Rui'an glanced at her meaningfully: "Prince, after all, you are not a gentleman!" ”

Jiang Qingyue understood what he meant in just a moment, and couldn't help but raise his head in shock and look at him in amazement.

Zhou Ruian smiled lightly, unable to hide his smugness: "It seems that even you didn't guess it, so it seems that I can rest assured about this plan." ”

"Wouldn't it be too risky for you to do that?" Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but say.

"It's a bit risky, but if the calculation is accurate, it may not be impossible." Zhou Ruian said lightly: "I believe that things are man-made!" ”

Jiang Qingyue glanced at him, endured and endured, and sighed: "You're going to be bad!" ”

Zhou Rui'an's eyes were shining at her, and his tone softened: "Then don't dislike me, okay?" ”

Jiang Qingyue glared at him, didn't speak, and turned around and walked out directly.

Zhou Rui'an's tone became surprised again: "You don't stay?" ”

"My master said he wouldn't let me play with the bad guys!" Jiang Qingyue said without looking back.

Zhou Rui'an: "......"

Early the next morning, Lin Zheyuan and Chen Xiuer both heard about Zhou Rui'an's dismissal, and they both felt that Zhou Rui'an might be hit hard, and the couple ran next door to visit Zhou Rui'an early in the morning.

Lin Zheyuan and Chen Xiu'er were very grateful to Zhou Rui'an, and couldn't wait to walk in, followed by Shen Yanniang and Jiang Qingyue.

Shen Yanniang muttered: "I don't believe that Zhou Rui'an will be hit, maybe I feel bad in my heart!" ”

Jiang Qingyue glanced at her approvingly, and looked, there were still people who understood!

But soon, Jiang Qingyue began to be distressed again, will anyone still see this?

Thinking of this, the two of them had already walked into the lobby.

Lin Zheyuan and Chen Xiu'er looked at Zhou Rui'an without saying anything, and their expressions were even more bitter and hateful than Zhou Rui'an, the person who was removed.

Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but feel a little funny.

Zhou Ruian was inexplicable and frowned impatiently: "Do you have something?" ”

Lin Zheyuan opened his mouth, and finally said sadly: "It's okay, Lord Shizi, even if you are not the commander of the Jinyi Guard, at least you are still the prince of the King of Jin!" It's hereditary, there will be no unemployment! ”

Jiang Qingyue burst out laughing, he had never thought that Lin Zheyuan was so good at comforting people!

Zhou Rui'an's expression.

"If you're okay, go back quickly, I'll have to go to the palace in a while." Zhou Ruian said.

"Into the palace? Haven't you been removed from your position? Lin Zheyuan asked in amazement.

As soon as Lin Zheyuan asked this question, he saw that Zhou Rui'an's expression was obviously gloomy, and he grabbed his hair, could it be that he said the wrong thing?

Jiang Qingyue sighed, didn't he say the wrong thing, the prince of the world is going out to pretend to be miserable, which is not easy for Zhou Rui'an, who has always been arrogant.

Chen Xiu'er grabbed Lin Zheyuan with a look of shame, and then looked at Zhou Rui'an with a smile: "The prince can go and get busy." ”

Zhou Ruian nodded at Jiang Qingyue and walked in.

Zhou Rui'an went to the palace to ask to see Emperor Xuande, but Emperor Xuande did not see him.

Zhou Rui'an stood outside the imperial study, looking at this place that he was extremely familiar with, this place that can be called the most secret place in the whole country, he was actually very familiar with it, when he was very young, he often came here, and he came in and out unhindered, and at that time, the first emperor would always hold him in his lap.

Zhou Ruian knelt down straight, his back was as firm as a pine, and there was no expression on his handsome face, which was obviously a humble posture, but looking at him, no one felt that he was humble, but with an awe-inspiring momentum, even if he stood in front of him, he couldn't find the slightest sense of superiority if he was condescending.

This kneeling is a full two hours.

The sun is setting.

Emperor Xuande looked at the sky outside and asked lightly, "Is he still kneeling?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the word has already been passed on, but Lord Zhou is still kneeling outside." The eunuch replied in a low voice.

Emperor Xuande frowned slightly: "Tell him, let him go back, I won't see him." ”

The eunuch answered, hurriedly walked out, and came back after a while, and said in a low voice: "Lord Zhou said that His Majesty is dissatisfied with him, and he should also give him a chance to explain." ”

Emperor Xuande rubbed his forehead a little tiredly, "I'm tired, let him go back." After a pause, he continued: "Let people continue to stare at him, if there is any abnormality, report it immediately, and, is there an abnormality over there in Jinyiwei?" ”

"There is nothing wrong with Jinyiwei's side, after the holy decree was issued, no one went to see Lord Zhou, and accepted the dismissal of Lord Zhou very calmly, Your Majesty can rest assured." The eunuch hurriedly said.

Emperor Xuande sneered: "Don't worry? I can't let go of this heart! After a pause, he couldn't hide his disgust and said, "Let him go!" I don't want to see him! ”

The eunuch answered, and hurriedly retreated to pass the word.

This time Zhou Ruian did not refuse, respectfully kowtowed in the direction of the imperial study, and then stood up and walked out.

The eunuch looked at his back, kneeling for so long, but his back was always straight, although he was kneeling, his dignity was always upright, even if he saluted in the most humble posture, but no one could make him truly surrender, maybe this is the reason why Emperor Xuande was jealous of him.

Zhou Ruian knelt for so long, and it spread throughout the capital, saying that Zhou Ruian somehow offended and angered Emperor Xuande, first was removed from his post, and then fell out of favor with Emperor Xuande, and now the emperor doesn't even want to see him.

Zhou Rui'an walked outside the palace, but met Wang Miao, the waiter of the Criminal Department, halfway.

Speaking of Wang Miao, he is also an acquaintance, when the Weiyuan Dart Bureau was destroyed, Emperor Xuande ordered the Criminal Department and Dali Temple to jointly investigate, Wang Miao was the official who investigated with Guan Youwei at that time.

However, later, because Wang Miao was eager to solve the case, but he was unable to find the murderer, he pushed back and forth, and even planned to point out that Lu was a trick for Ma Qu, and later Guan Youwei found key evidence and excluded him.

Later, Zhou Ruian learned that Wang Miao was a member of the queen's faction, and he did everything he could to block it at that time, also to cover for the queen's mother.

After the case of Weiyuan Dart Bureau, the queen was implicated, and Wang Miao was really low-key for a long time, but he didn't expect to meet it today.

Wang Miao saw Zhou Rui'an greet him with a smile: "Ouch, isn't this Commander Zhou?" After a pause, he deliberately slapped himself in the mouth: "Look at the memory of this official, now I can't call Commander Zhou, I have to call Lord Zhou, Lord Zhou has been promoted, it is really gratifying, this official actually said wrong, it should be beaten, it should be beaten!" ”

From dereliction of duty to an idle official position, this kind of thing of rising and falling in secret, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Wang Miao deliberately said this to insult Zhou Rui'an.

Zhou Rui'an glanced at him lightly: "Taifu Temple, the official residence of the temple is a product, how many products is Lord Wang?" ”

Wang Miao's expression froze.

Although the status of the Criminal Department is not obvious in the six departments, it is much stronger than an idle Taifu Temple, but he, the squire of the Criminal Department, is only a third-grade official, and in terms of official rank, he is lower than Zhou Rui'an.

But officials are not so simple! He is one of the six servants, what is Taifu Temple? It's just a yamen to assist the household department, it's just a fictitious thing, and he dares to put an adult's money with him?
