Chapter 115: Uncle and Nephew Conspiracy
On a rainy night, he hurried back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, "Madam, you must hide this, and wait for King Chen to come back from the border pass and give it to him." After finishing speaking, Chu Xiang handed over a scroll of things to Mrs. Chu.
Mrs. Chu unfolded it, it turned out to be the emperor's handwritten edict, the edict was very clear, King Chen was the future emperor, the picture turned, Chu Xiang accused him of plotting to usurp the throne on the day of Nangong Anyi's accession to the throne, and the Empress Dowager Bai immediately ordered Chu Xiang to be dragged out and killed alive.
Then, the picture changed again, a team of Praetorian Guards rushed into Chu Xiang's Mansion, drove everyone to the front yard without saying a word, and then searched vigorously, smashing all the valuable things in the mansion, they searched for nothing, and finally had to leave and take care of Chu Xiangfu. Seeing this, Chu Lixue clenched her fists, she was really a group of hateful dogs, because Chu Xiang was a good official in the hearts of the people, they didn't dare to plunder the Chu family's property, so they could only destroy it.
"Elegant, elegant." A female voice softly called out her modern name, Chu Lixue turned her head to look, it was the woman who looked the same as herself, what was going on? Chu Lixue looked at the object in front of her vigilantly, saying that it was because she didn't have a real shell, just an image.
"Qingya, don't be afraid, I'm Chu Lixue, I'm here this time to thank you for taking care of my family for me."
"You don't have to thank me, I came here all because of the care of Mrs. Chu and Miss Chu, and I thank them."
"Qingya, my family will bother you to take care of it more in the future, and ...... And...... I also want to ask you to help King Chen, help him regain the throne, and help our Chu family Zhaoxue. Chu Lixue's soul said with tears in her eyes.
"Okay, I promise you."
Hearing this, the soul disappeared in an instant, Chu Lixue suddenly opened her eyes and sat up, because she was in a bit of a hurry when she got up, and knocked down the box next to the bed.
The person who kept vigil tonight was Ning Xiang, who heard a voice in the house, and hurriedly got up and walked in, "Princess, are you okay?" ”
"It's fine." Chu Lixue lifted the curtain on the bed with one hand, Ning Xiang walked in with a candle, and when she saw Chu Lixue sweating profusely, she couldn't help but be a little worried: "Princess, what's wrong with you?" Look at the cold sweat. Ning Xiang said as she wiped the cold sweat from Chu Lixue's forehead.
"Ningxiang, let me ask you something." Chu Lixue said lightly. If you want to help King Chen regain the throne, you have to figure out everything in your dreams. And the one who knows this matter best is only Ning Xiang at the moment.
"Princess, just ask if you have anything, Ning Xiang will tell the princess what she knows."
"Ning Xiang, do you know where my mother put the roll of things my father brought back?" Chu Lixue said softly.
"A roll of things? Madame put it? Ning Xiang blinked and scratched her head. But she hasn't seen anything, since Mrs. put it, should she ask Mrs.
"Princess, what are you looking for, since Madame put it away, do you want to ask Madame?" After finishing speaking, Ning Xiang hurriedly closed her mouth, Mrs. and Miss were not in Cloud City, and the Queen Mother's words implied that Mrs. and Miss had been assassinated.
"You know, we don't have any news of my mother and sister right now, so I can only ask you first." Chu Lixue said lightly. It's not that she doesn't believe Ning Xiang, but the things about her mother and sister in Yunshui Villa, the fewer people who know, the better, and not telling Ning Xiang is also for her safety.
"Princess, but when they searched the Chu family, they didn't find anything, could it be that what they were looking for was what the princess was looking for?"
"Well, it's very likely, it's just that it's been many years, and I don't know if that thing has been lost." Chu Lixue said lightly. Thinking of this, she is really a little sorry, she has been married into the Chenwang Mansion for several years, but she has never been back to the Chu Mansion, especially her current identity, it is even more embarrassing, now she is the county lord of Qinghe, the daughter of the eldest princess, if she goes to the old mansion of the Chu family, wouldn't it make those who doubt her more sure of their identity?
Thinking of this, Chu Lixue looked at Ning Xiang, "Ning Xiang, you take the time...... Forget it, I also said let the others go. ”
"If the princess has anything, tell the slave and maid to go, Ningxiang will be careful not to be discovered." Ning Xiang smiled lightly.
Hearing this, Chu Lixue looked at Ning Xiang, but she didn't expect this girl to guess her thoughts, such a delicate and clear girl, it was also her blessing to be by her side.
"Then you must be careful, if you find something wrong, you must come back first, don't be impulsive." Chu Lixue said solemnly.
"Rest assured, princess." Ning Xiang smiled lightly.
While talking, it was already dawn, and Chu Lixue didn't feel sleepy, there were more and more things she was worried about, whether the eldest brother Chu Lifeng was safe now, and who was the behind-the-scenes boss of the Crescent Tower, and who leaked the news that Chu Lifeng was still alive? Everything is unknown, and it seems that she will meet a strong opponent in the future.
After the early dynasty, King Chen and King Jing went out of the palace gate at the same time, "Uncle Jingwang, if you want to get rid of that person, come to the Moon Tower." Just such a sentence, what King Chen said was light and light.
He knew that King Jing was a suspicious person, and if he directly told him that he wanted him to help deal with that person, he might believe it, but he would definitely not act according to their plan, but would only follow his own methods, if he just said that he wanted to get rid of that person, his tone would be different, and it sounded like he wanted to consult with him, and this kind of success rate was very high.
Sure enough, King Jing immediately followed King Chen's carriage out of the palace gate successively, King Jing did not go directly to Deyue Tower, but went back to his palace first, wearing court clothes, it was still too eye-catching, and he changed into civilian clothes, just like going to the medicinal food workshop before so as not to attract attention.
King Chen took the lead in coming to Deyue Tower, found a private room facing the street and sat down, Xiao Er quickly put on a pot of Biluochun and quietly retreated.
Although they are all doing things in Deyue Tower, they don't look at what they know they shouldn't see, and don't ask what they shouldn't ask, this is what Princess Chen warned when they entered Deyue Tower to do things on the first day. Even when they saw the royal family and nobles, they were still able to properly serve the dishes and then withdraw, and they would not come until someone called them.
"Little Er, another plate of crab roe cake, a plate of jade hibiscus cake, and a plate of butterfly rolls." King Chen said lightly. In his memory, most of these dim sum were what King Jing liked to eat, and although King Chen was not as close to King Jing as before, he still hoped that this Uncle Wang would turn back as soon as possible.
After waiting for about half an hour, King Chen heard a creak, the door was pushed open, and it was King Jing who walked in, King Jing glanced at King Chen, walked in, and sat opposite King Chen.
King Chen smiled faintly, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of Biluochun, and pushed it in front of King Jing, "Uncle Wang is in a hurry, let's take a sip of tea first." ”
King Jing was not polite, took the tea and drank it in one gulp, "Is there any way for you to make that person show his feet?" ”
"It's not that I have a way, it's that my princess has a way." King Chen still said with a faint smile.
"Lord Qinghe?" King Jing wondered. In his eyes, no matter how shrewd Chu Lixue is, she is just a woman, and there is no way to compare a woman's vision with a man, it is just some small means.
But King Jing underestimated the so-called small means of women, and even more underestimated Chu Lixue's methods, a woman who seemed harmless to humans and animals, her mind was vicious, and she was better than men.
"Since it is your princess who has a way, why is it not her who comes to talk to this king, but you? Is it to entertain the king? King Jing was a little displeased.
I thought there was a good way to finally avenge my brother, but I didn't expect it to be such a result.
"Uncle Wang blames his nephew, my princess is a woman, it's really inappropriate to meet Uncle Wang like this, I'm just a messenger, Uncle Wang just needs to listen to me." King Chen took a sip of tea.
"Then let's talk about it, this king, what can your princess do to surprise this king." After finishing speaking, King Jing picked up the pastries on the plate and ate them.
"Okay, my princess said that that person originally didn't have a jade pendant, since he had already let him know about the jade pendant, he may have already inquired about the origin of some jade pendants, and maybe he had already prepared, and besides, Ling Shaogu Lord looked at his face carefully, and the other party did not change his face, so this is not our breakthrough point."
Hearing this, King Jing was a little annoyed, and said some useless nonsense for a long time, doesn't this still mean that there is no way to solve it? That's a hateful woman who tricked herself into coming over.
Thinking of this, King Jing stood up suddenly, and was about to leave, he really regretted coming here to see King Chen, how could Princess Chen be so kind to help him, just wanted to tease him.
"Uncle Wang, don't get excited, it's not too late to leave after listening to me." King Chen said lightly.
"What else do you say?"
"What I just said is just the truth, although the other party is not disguised, and the behavior is very similar, if you want him to show his feet, you can only start from people's preferences and taboos."
"What do you mean?" King Jing turned around and sat down.
"I remember that Uncle An Wang can't peanuts, he is allergic to peanuts, if he gives the other party peanuts, he is not allergic, isn't this the best proof? And even if he prepares an identical jade pendant, it will not be the same as the original, the refractive index of each jade pendant is different, and the twelve jade pendants in our hands are cut from the same piece of jade, carved by the ancestor emperor himself, each craftsman's technique is different, even if it is the same regiment, the carving is not the same, so this is also a evidence. As for his appearance, my princess said, then try your best to find a person with a similar appearance, as for why he wants to pretend to be King An, everything still needs to be investigated. ”
After listening to King Chen's words, King Jing had to admit that Princess Chen was really a smart woman, but they were not allies, but hostile positions, "What do you want?" ”
"We know that King Jing sent someone to watch King An's Mansion quietly, as long as we share resources, please tell us what Uncle Wang knows."
