Chapter 198: The Truth
Thinking like this, You inspired the 'girl' and said: "The prince of Qiguo is with that Chen Luojia - now Chen Luojia is indeed not dead back then, and she also deliberately let the Xie family find out that she is not dead, why do you think this is?" ”
Zhuo Zhaojie replied quickly: "In order to tell Jiulang? ”
You was a little surprised: "You thought of it?" ”
"The Ning family's big house and the second room are not in harmony, this beat me since I came to Chang'an, but whenever I hear the Tining family, I almost have to hear such a sentence, Chen Luojia snatched Jiulang's wine beads back then, but now he is with the prince of Qiguo, this is not for Jiulang, what else will it be? As the prince of Qiguo, if you want to deal with Xie Niangzi, there is no need to be so troublesome, and Chen Luojia also knows the relationship between Xie Niangzi and me, I have made a marriage with Jiulang, and I am among Jiulang and Xie Niangzi two years ago. ”
After a pause, she said again, "Fang Cai's mother asked Xie Niangzi why she didn't do it after discovering Chen Luojia, Xie Niangzi was repeatedly 'forced' by her mother to ask before she said that the prince of Qiguo and Chen Luojia were together, she explained that she didn't want to get involved in the Ning family's big house and the second room, and thought that with the hands of the Zhuo family or Jiulang, as long as Chen Luojia was mentioned, it should be easy to find out the prince of Qiguo - in fact, if there was only one Chen Luojia in this encounter, Xie Niangzi would do it, but the Qiguo Mansion obviously didn't want them to do it, That's why the prince of Qiguo will accompany Chen Luojia...... Therefore, there must be a reason for them to do this, Xie Niangzi found out that Chen Luojia was not dead, and she was shocked to see the prince of Qiguo again, afraid of the power of Qiguo Gong, naturally she didn't dare to do it, but she definitely had to tell me, I will tell Jiulang next! ”
"So I think that the prince of Qiguo went around in such a circle, in the final analysis, in order to convey the news that Chen Luojia was not dead and was protected by him to Jiulang."
Speaking of this, Zhuo Zhaojie 'revealed' his hesitation, "Strange, why is this?" But why bother with such news? ”
You Shi said lightly: "Xie Shi immediately turned his head when he saw the prince of Qiguo, because she couldn't afford to provoke the prince of Qiguo...... But can the prince of the country afford to mess with Jiulang? If it was Jiulang or you encountered that scene, would you spare Chen? If Jiulang met him, he would probably kill Chen Luojia on the street! Pray for the prince of the country to dare to stop him, do you believe that Jiulang can break the 'leg' of the prince of Qin, and he can also break his 'leg'? ”
Zhuo Zhaojie was stunned, and You continued, "Chang'an knows Chen Luojia, except for the 'attendant' guards of the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion who hunted her in Moling back then, there are only three people, one you, one Xie, and one Jiulang, the prince of Qiguo now just wants Jiulang to know that Chen Luojia is in his hands, but he can't let this Chen die, let alone let the Chen family be snatched away by Jiulang, the 'waiter' guards have been following Jiulang, and letting them see it is equivalent to Jiulang seeing it, so he wants to get the news through Lu' to Jiulang, naturally you can only choose between you or the Xie family, although our family is only the Hou Mansion, slightly lower than the Qiguo Mansion, but it is not a family that can tolerate others to hurt their children at will, plus the Qiguo Mansion and your grandfather are both the king of Yanchang County, and now that the king of Yanchang County is suppressed, they don't want to attract too much attention to each other, not to mention the contradictions? In contrast, isn't the Xie clan, who has martial arts but no power, a good choice? ”
"But what are they doing it for?" Zhuo Zhaojie asked in surprise, "Do you want Jiulang to know that if the two rooms are not in harmony again, will it be impossible for individuals to talk about it?" Why wait for Xie Niangzi to play such a play on the street? ”
You Shi frowned and said, "You keep saying that you like Jiulang, why don't you know him at all now?" Because of the preference of the eldest princess Jiyang, Jiulang will put a mere prince of the country in his eyes? On the side of Qi Guogong, now as long as Jiulang knows about such a thing, they may not be willing to admit that Chen Luojia is in their hands! If you directly ask someone to go to the 'door' to talk about this, with Jiulang's 'temperament', if you get this handle, I am afraid that you will directly lead people to rush into the Qiguo Mansion to find out Chen Luojia and execute him! Even if no one can be found when the time comes...... Jiulang can also say that this matter was deliberately done by the Qiguo Mansion! But now ......"
She groaned for a moment and said, "Now the Qiguo Mansion should not want to make a fuss about the matter, which is also true, the sage did not say this reason before, in the end, it was just 'private'...... Now that the holy will has only come out with such a little light, even if he tells the saint now, the saint will not change his mind so quickly for the sake of face, this is not a trivial matter! How can you change your order overnight! ”
You Shi muttered, "They will pick the most critical time...... But I don't know, what kind of time will this be? ”
Zhuo Zhaojie was stunned and said, "Mother? ”
"Still don't understand?" You glanced at her, "Chen Luojia is in the hands of the Qiguo Mansion, which is very unfavorable to Jiulang!" I'm talking about this, have you thought of it? ”
“…… Chen Luojia! Zhuo Zhaojie stared for a moment, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed, and he covered his mouth and exclaimed, "She...... She...... Don't?! ”
You looked at her calmly.
Zhuo Zhaojie was sluggish for a long time before he asked his mother: "Chen Luojia - two years ago in Moling, she ...... She's at the instigation of Kuro?! ”
"Not necessarily him, how old was he two years ago? But he knew for sure. You snorted and said, "I think it's probably Su Shi's doing, this Yue's famous general was famous for his good strategy when he was on the battlefield in the past, and this person is extremely loyal to Shen Lige, after Shen Lige's death, how could he not plan for Jiulang?" ”
Zhuo Zhaojie's hand holding the tea bowl trembled slightly, so she quickly put the tea bowl back on the table and said at a loss: "That...... Then Chen Luojia kidnapped me...... She's going to ...... Still want to kill me? ”
You Shi said lightly: "You didn't have a relationship with Jiulang at that time, whether this plan was thought by Su Shina or decided by Jiulang himself, all in all, you had only one identity in their minds at that time, including Chen Luojia, that is, the granddaughter of Marquis Minping!" ”
"......" Zhuo Zhaojie simply didn't know what to say!
You Shi continued: "The reason why I suspect Xie Yingmai is because it is very strange that Chen Luojia went to Moling to grab the wine beads, and she passed by the small river by Qujiazhuang after holding you hostage, and actually let you escape!" No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a seasoned Jianghu person, because since you couldn't help at that time, although she threatened you, why didn't you think of an accident? Why don't you tie you up and gag you again? Actually let you be alone in the cabin for a long time to take the hairpin and 'shoot' the sunset to lead down the falcon! ”
"So at the beginning, I thought it was the 'yin' plot of the Qiguo Mansion against Jiulang, and when you escaped halfway through and killed you, when Jiulang was present, he would naturally be involved, and your grandfather would not let him go." You sighed, "But now from this matter, we underestimate Jiulang or the entire Yongcheng Hou Mansion, and underestimate it too much - this is simply the ruthlessness of the Yongcheng Hou Mansion to the Qiguo Mansion!" ”
Zhuo Zhaojie was dizzy when he heard this: "Mother, I don't understand. ”
"yes, you wouldn't want to go together." You said, "You didn't grow up in Chang'an, you are not as keen on court affairs as other little ladies, what might you think of when you think about this matter to the court and politics, especially the recent major events?" ”
Zhuo Zhaojie bit his 'lip' for a long time, wondering: "The recent big event? Event...... The big thing is that the king of Zhending County stayed in Daming Palace, and the king of Yanchang County was personally ordered by the saint to close the 'door' to study? This...... This and two years ago? ”
You Shi was a little disappointed, and reminded again: "I just said that you can't underestimate the eldest princess of Jiyang!" ”
"......" Zhuo Zhaojie was silent for a long time this time, and then asked uncertainly, "The wine bead case two years ago is related to the fact that the saint and the queen chose the current king of Zhending?" ”
You secretly breathed a sigh of relief - sure enough, his 'daughter' is still very smart, he really didn't grow up around him, although Ban really loves his grandson's 'daughter', and he also tried his best to teach, in the end, the 'door' lintel and heritage of the You family are there, Ban can teach his grandson' 'daughter' to be a qualified lady, but it is just everyone, but he can't teach Zhuo Zhaojie to become a qualified Hou 'door' girl.
It's not that Ban's heart is not attentive or Ban's own ability is insufficient, it's completely because of the different thinking of the environment, Ban's with her husband and eunuch Chang'an, You Ruoheng is a person who can only read, in Chang'an all those years rely on her busy, but after returning to Moling, Ban's suddenly became idle, far away from Chang'an's place, the 'women' have to deal with all kinds of trivial things in the backyard, and Ban's can't think that Zhuo Zhaojie was born in Hou's 'door', and will continue to marry into Hou's 'door' - according to Ban's and You's discussion, Zhuo Zhaojie should marry Ruan Yunshu, the Ruan family is not only neutral, but also the mother-in-law is a sister-in-law and aunt, and the population is so simple that it can't be simpler, if so, it doesn't matter if Zhuo Zhaojie is simple and relaxed.
What's more, in the case of Moling, most of the Ban clan's want to teach is just talking on paper, in the end, Moling is not Chang'an, there will not be such an atmosphere that everyone from the princes and generals to the peddlers and pawns can say two sentences to the new decree of the imperial court to soak in 'lewdness'.
Although Zhuo Zhaojie can only think of the main topic after repeated reminders, it is already very good in terms of her experience.
You and Yan Yue praised the intelligence of the 'girl', and asked her to speculate in detail.
Zhuo Zhaojie bit his 'lip' before he said: "Mother just reminded me twice, one is the recent major event in the court, naturally it is that the king of Zhending County is the saint who is the emperor's grandson, and the other time is not to be underestimated by the eldest princess of Jiyang, if it is connected, it is that the saint made such a decision, and it has a great relationship with the eldest princess of Jiyang." ”
After a pause, she said hatefully, "Eldest Princess Jiyang-didn't my father and mother say it when they speculated about what happened two years ago?" The eldest princess is eccentric to the Marquis of Yongcheng, but she is not partial to the point that she can ignore the life and death of the Duke of Yongcheng for the Marquis of Yongcheng, but she is not as patient and loving to the Marquis of Yongcheng, and the eldest princess is the only sister of the saint, and she is highly respected by the saint and the queen! ”
"Originally, the queen was more interested in the king of Zhending." Zhuo Zhaojie paused and continued, "But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince favors the King of Yanchang County, and the courtiers are divided into three factions. ”
You Shi's face 'revealed' the 'color' of approval, and nodded: "That's right!" ”
"The eldest princess of Jiyang prefers the Marquis of Yongcheng and Jiulang, but the matter of establishing the prince is not trivial, and the eldest princess is also from the eldest princess, and the eldest princess does not want to change her preference for the Marquis of Yongcheng and Jiulang, but she is not guilty, so even if Jiulang and the king of Zhending are 'friendly', the marquis of Yongcheng is clearly on the side of the king of Zhending, but the eldest princess of Jiyang is still hesitant in her heart - I think the eldest princess may be planning to make up for the prince of Qiguo in this matter." Zhuo Zhaojie raised his sleeves to cover his mouth and said softly, "But...... Jiulang's side, maybe not Jiulang, but Yongcheng Hou and Zhending County King don't want to see the eldest princess Jiyang speak for this to help the king of Yanchang County, so they have to make the eldest princess change her mind! ”
"However, the eldest princess has the heart to compensate for the country, and she is not easy to persuade her, but ...... If Jiu Lang had been conspired by the Qi Guo Mansion two years ago and intended to put him to death, then the eldest princess would inevitably be worried that once the king of Yanchang County inherited the throne, the Marquis of Yongcheng and Jiu Lang's 'life' would be difficult to protect, so that the eldest princess would turn around and stand on the side of the king of Zhending County! ”
