Chapter 36: The Secret War Never Ends (1)
Jingyue Palace, Jingyue Tower.
Zhong Lixiang was upstairs playing chess with King Chu Jinlin of Jingyue, Zhong Lixiang was fierce in chess, and King Jingyue was steady and conservative, and the two fought fiercely for a long time, and King Jingyue was already at a disadvantage.
A person hurried upstairs, "Lord and Princess, someone asked to see the princess." ”
"Whoever has to see the princess, but the king can't see it, let him come upstairs." King Jingyue was playing chess and refused to let Zhong Lixiang leave.
But Zhong Lixiang heard King Jingyue's jealousy, "Lord Wang, are you complaining that I snubbed you?" ”
"Isn't it?" King Jingyue muttered, "Who is it who is not in the room and goes to see someone every once in a while?" ”
"Lord Wang, I'm all for you, if you look at me like the world, I'll be so wronged, I'm full of grievances and no one will confide in me from now on." Zhong Lixiang held the white son in his hand, and he didn't fall for a long time, staring at the Jingyue King with resentment.
"Xiang'er, I was wrong, I was wrong, don't be sad." King Jingyue stretched out his hand and held Zhong Lixiang's hand, rubbing it back and forth, "What does it matter who comes, you go to see him, I will play this game of chess when you come back." ”
"Forget it, since the prince is suspicious, it's better to see him, Yeguang, you call someone to talk back and forth." Zhong Lixiang put aside the restless hand of King Jingyue and put Bai Zi lightly on the chessboard, as soon as this son fell, Bai Zi immediately became a golden rooster and became independent, and King Jingyue who held the black son was annoyed.
"Yes!" The housekeeper called Luminous said yes, turned back and went downstairs, and after a while, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps going upstairs, and there seemed to be more than one person.
Zhong Lixiang stood up, his expression a little solemn.
The person who came was dressed ordinarily and looked ordinary, and King Jingyue didn't know him, but Zhong Lixiang frowned when he saw it, and his face was cold, "Streamer, wave light, it's you?" How did you get here? Have you forgotten what I said, everything you do has nothing to do with the Jingyue Palace! ”
"Princess, things are a bit tricky, and my subordinates don't dare to make decisions indiscriminately, so I go back and forth." Streamer and Wave Light lowered their heads.
"Well, let's talk about it quickly." Zhong Lixiang returned to his seat and sat down, smiling at King Jingyue, "Lord Wang, do you really want to hear it?" ”
King Jingyue gave a "haha", but he just didn't leave, obviously still wanting to hear what Zhong Lixiang was doing recently.
Seeing that Zhong Lixiang didn't want to avoid King Jingyue, he said: "The subordinates found that there was something unusual in the East Palace that day, and dispatched a lot of palace maids and eunuch guards, they disguised themselves and went deep into the market, behaving strangely, and the subordinates were worried that it would be unfavorable to the princess, the princess and the prince, so they followed, and it turned out that it was the prince of the East Palace who left the palace and did not know where to go, as if it was because the emperor had issued some secret decree." ”
"Is there such a thing?" King Jingyue muttered, "No wonder, the emperor's brother has been frowning for the past few days, and he has not been able to go to the court, and his father's face is not right, it turns out that such a major event has happened?" You have done a good job, and you must keep this king behind. ”
"Lord Wang, they are my people." Zhong Lixiang smiled and glared at King Jingyue.
"It's the same, it's the same, husband and wife are of the same heart." King Jingyue also smiled, and did not have any objection to Zhong Lixiang sending people to monitor the East Palace.
Streamer nodded and arched his hand, "Yes, my subordinates obey." The subordinates followed all the way, and they found the prince first, and wanted to get acquainted with him, who knew that the prince was also attacked by another group of people, and had become a frightened bird, so we decided to increase the number of people, and secretly wanted to help, so as not to give birth to any trouble, but it was still a step too late. ”
"What? Late? Did the gang do it? King Jingyue stood up suddenly, his expression was a little terrifying, "Chu Yuan, he ......"
"Don't worry, Lord Wang, the prince is still fine, the prince fled into the general's mansion, but his subordinates have a strange feeling, those people seem to have forced the prince into the general's mansion." Streamer hesitated and said his thoughts, "Those people have martial arts, but they didn't kill the prince, they just chased after them all the way." ”
Zhong Lixiang and King Jingyue glanced at each other, "What's the matter?" ”
"After those people entered the General's Mansion, they quickly dispersed, but their subordinates did not dare to leave. The subordinates took people to guard near the General's Mansion, and in the early morning, the prince came out alone, but lingered nearby, as if waiting for someone, as a result, the second lady of the General's Mansion came out in men's clothes, and left with a smile with the prince, and the prince was very happy. Streamer looked at Zhong Lixiang, "What's even more strange is that the seventh prince arrived at the General's Mansion, and not long after he also took the third miss of the Ye family and some people out of the mansion, his subordinates sent people to investigate, and sent back the news that they were going to find the second miss, and the subordinates were confused, afraid that the general's mansion would be bad for the princess and the prince's affairs, and that the seventh prince had any special intentions, so he didn't dare to take action at will, so he came to the palace, not wanting to disturb the prince and the princess's Yaxing." ”
After Zhong Lixiang listened, he was silent for a long time, and King Jingyue saw that Zhong Lixiang seemed to be in deep thought, so he waved his hand, "A few of you go out first, and King Rong Ben and the princess will say a few words." ”
Streamer and the other three withdrew, Zhong Lixiang looked at King Jingyue and said softly, "What does the prince think?" ”
"What do I think? I can't tell the eldest brother first, if the son of the world is crazy and disappears, we can't find it, how can I explain it? King Jingyue smiled bitterly.
"Then now the people in the East Palace don't know that someone wants to be unfavorable to the prince? Is it possible to calculate the plan? Is it possible to invite you into the urn? If it is really found that someone from mine is meddling, then it will be worth it? It's strange if you don't take the opportunity to make trouble, why does Hui'er have to go to the General's Mansion at this moment, if something happens, what can I do? Zhong Lixiang paced back and forth, shaking his head and sighing repeatedly.
"So, what do you say?" King Jingyue spread his hands.
"If I say, it's better to withdraw the troops." Zhong Lixiang said slowly: "The matter of the son of the world, it has nothing to do with us, why should we go to this troubled water, the prince and Ye Huanqing are together, and if something happens, it is also Ye Tan's business, can it still be relied on on us?" I asked Lan Xian to get drunk and send someone to find Hui'er back. ”
"It's not right, it's not right." King Jingyue shook his head, "Hui'er is already involved, isn't it strange to withdraw at this time?" It is better for me to let others enter the palace at this time, meet my father, and inadvertently disclose this news to my father, so that my father can judge the intentions of the East Palace, and I can also let my father send someone to protect Chu Yuan. ”
"You are kind-hearted, and a good person will let others do it, but even if my father learns about it in the future, he may not think that you are kind and accept your affection." Zhong Lixiang sneered.
"This king has a clear conscience, I'm going to find someone to teach me in person, it's not good if it's late." Jingyue King Chu Jinlin smiled mysteriously, "You can still find Lan Xian drunk over there, and let him secretly protect your baby Hui'er." ”
