Chapter 213: The Most Fickle Is the Human Heart!
Shen Ninghua pinched the paper with the news in his hand and threw it into the charcoal basin on the side.
Chu Junyi entered the door with the cold wind, handed the cloak to the side to serve Bai Wei, and waved them down: "Ning Hua, have you heard?" ”
"Well, Baili Jinchuan's muscles and veins are damaged, and he can't lift heavy objects without internal strength, let alone go into battle to kill the enemy, even if a person stands still and lets him lift his sword and cut it over, he may not be able to hack people to death, if he goes to the battlefield, his father will easily agree?"
Chu Junyi sat beside her, and her eyebrows frowned slightly: "Originally, the emperor would not agree easily, but it may not be necessary after someone around him said something." ”
Shen Ninghua raised her eyes: "The people around you? You mean...... Dust? After thinking about all the people around Baili Qingcang, Shen Ninghua finally thought of someone. Only the words of the dust can easily sway the emperor's opinion, after all, he is a master who has always been famous!
Chu Junyi nodded: "In the past few days, the emperor has summoned Chen one after another, and I heard that he often has long talks in the palace, and even, the emperor personally ordered to reward Chen, but he refused on the grounds that it is not suitable for monks to accept the reward." ”
Shen Ninghua sneered: "If the monk really can't accept the reward, why would he go so hard to drill the camp?" I think that my father should have realized that something was wrong, so that he could take advantage of it. ”
"Well, the princes in the harem have had accidents one after another, the second prince has been abolished for martial arts, and the five princes have been punished for mistakes one after another, the emperor may not have no doubts in his heart, but he buried his doubts in his heart because he was angry before, and now he has calmed down, and there is dust around him, so he will inevitably not think of the conspiracy to fight for power."
"As a king, suspicion is a common problem, and it is inevitable for him to be suspicious, but once he feels that he has done something wrong before and starts to use the prince again, then our previous arrangement will be in vain."
During this period of time, Baili Jinchuan's life was not easy, and the fifth prince Baili Jinze was even more miserable. He was already from a humble background, his mother passed away early, and now the emperor abandoned him, he was struggling in the palace, and even the charcoal fire was picked by others in winter, and the servants were even more down.
originally wanted to take the opportunity to completely suppress him, but now that the emperor has noticed the struggle for power, then it will inevitably deepen Emperor Ang's suspicions, if he is sure that the second prince and the fifth prince have been calculated before, then she doesn't know when her revenge will be avenged.
"Ning Hua, they are in the light, we are in the dark, rest assured, there is an opportunity to retaliate." Seeing the sorrow and unwillingness on Shen Ninghua's face, Chu Junyi stepped forward and hugged her tightly in his arms.
"yes, I know."
Chu Junyi smiled, but he was extremely uncomfortable in his heart. When he heard Baili Jinchuan ask for his life to go to the northwest, he immediately thought of what Baili Jinchuan said to Shen Ninghua when he was in Baili Anning Palace.
"I'll make you regret it, I'll make you regret the decision you made!"
The decision he said in his mouth must have been that Shen Ninghua chose him and gave up marrying into the Second Prince's Mansion. There are many ways to make Ning Hua regret it, with Baili Jinchuan's temperament, he will definitely use the most relieving one, that is, holding power in his hands, ascending the throne as the emperor, and trampling him under his feet.
Thinking about it this way, it seems somewhat understandable that he would take the initiative to invite Ying to go to the battlefield again.
The second prince re-led the troops to stir up an unknown storm above the court, but thinking of his ruined appearance and injured body, the active minds of the hundred officials suppressed two points downward. After all, being disfigured is equivalent to losing the throne, and even if he is in charge of the military again, he may not be able to be as beautiful as before.
In the palace, Baili Jinchuan, who was confined in the palace, was even more excited at this time, he looked at the newly sent charcoal fire in the palace, and his eyes burned with the light of hope. His father did not issue an order to lift his captivity, but he punished the minions who detained his share of the house. Such a beating is like a signal, a signal to see the light of day.
Last time, he was too confident, but he didn't expect that the hidden other village was also turned out, if he could make a comeback, he would definitely be careful and forbearing!
He has endured it for more than 20 years, and he doesn't care about enduring it for a few more years, as long as he can ascend to that supreme position, he can smear it as much as he wants in the history books, who dares to say half a word!
His cold eyes were filled with evil joy, and the waves were full of arrogant ambition, and it took a while for him to suppress the excitement in his heart and return to his usual gentle and polite appearance.
"Someone."
"I've seen the Fifth Highness."
"Go and prepare pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and I will copy the scriptures for my father."
"Yes, Your Highness, the servant will go and prepare the best proclamation and emblem ink."
Baili Jinze shook his head, and the smile on his lips deepened: "No, with the most ordinary shengxuan, the ink block doesn't need to be too good, it is the most commonly used in the palace." ”
The waiter was stunned, and he couldn't react at once, but he didn't dare to ask more, so he hurriedly prepared as instructed.
Shen Ninghua and Chu Junyi started to investigate from the Internal Affairs Office, and the more they investigated, the more shocking the results became, and even faintly found the queen in the end.
It is not a secret matter for the Zhao family to control the Department of Internal Affairs, after all, the queen is the master of the harem, and many things in the Department of Internal Affairs also need to be ruled by the queen, but the queen can have what she wants, and the queen will send whatever she says, and the department serving the royal family is completely in the hands of a woman, which is a problem.
In recent years, millions of taels of silver have been lost from the Department of Internal Affairs, and countless precious porcelain, wood, and tributes have flowed out. The most shocking thing is that the things sent by the Department of Internal Affairs to the palaces of the concubines were all ordered by the queen herself, and they were all concocted by special means, no wonder the concubines in the harem had not been seen for many years and gave birth to heirs safely.
Shen Ninghua looked at the content she found, and she was also shocked in her heart: "The queen mother is really a good means, she controls the harem like this, and she is afraid that there will be any chaos?" ”
"I have always only known the privacy of the harem, but I didn't expect that this shady method is not inferior to the previous dynasty." Chu Junyi was also shocked when he saw it, "I don't know if there is a secret to the death of my mother?" ”
Shen Ninghua raised his head, put his white fingers on his palm, and comforted him warmly: "Although it has been so many years, it is not easy to kill a concubine, there will always be clues left, besides, even if there are no traces, if you want to take revenge, just create a little trace." ”
Chu Junyi's heart warmed, and she pressed her hand tightly into my palm: "Well, I understand." ”
Shen Ninghua smiled and looked down at the content he found: "Do you have any plans for these things, do you want to report them directly to your father?" ”
Chu Junyi muttered: "The Department of Internal Affairs is too deeply involved, the Zhao family, the crown prince, and the queen, none of them can be moved by us now, and besides, the queen's order is very timely, and many evidences have been directly destroyed, even if we report these things to the emperor, there is no evidence to prove it, in this way, it is very likely to be bitten back by the queen's people." ”
Shen Ninghua nodded approvingly: "Yes, but we can't let it go so easily, otherwise we have been investigating it with great fanfare for so long, wouldn't we have not investigated anything at all, and when the time comes, my father will definitely have doubts in his heart." ”
"Well, that's good," Chu Junyi frowned and thought about it, and suddenly raised his lips and smiled, "I remember the dead Yin noble, her father also served in the Department of Internal Affairs, although we can't move the queen, we can cut off one of her arms first!" ”
Shen Ninghua's eyes lit up, thinking of the shocking content he had investigated before, and nodded: "Well, then I'll enter the palace." ”
"Well, be careful."
With the previous peace of mind, Shen Ninghua was always at ease when he entered the palace now.
"Rest assured, it's okay."
When the queen received the news of Shen Ninghua's entry into the palace, her brows tightened, and she turned her head to look at Master Lichen on the side: "Master, Princess Zhaohua is deeply loved by the emperor, but she is a righteous daughter after all, and she treats a righteous daughter more than a daughter like An Ning, so doesn't it make An Ning and them sad." ”
Lichen's face was compassionate, and he recited the Buddha's name with his eyes: "Amitabha, the emperor is the lord of the world, and all the people in the world are the emperor's people, and all beings are equal, what is the difference between a righteous daughter and a biological child, the mother doesn't have to mind." ”
Zhao Huiying's eyes moved: "It's right for the master to say this, it's just that it is inevitable that An Ning and An Qing will feel uncomfortable in their hearts." ”
"The human heart is the most difficult to control, and there are a few people who can maintain a normal mind, Amitabha, good, good."
"People's hearts ......" Zhao Huiying slightly hooked the corners of her lips, "Yes, the most difficult thing to control is people's hearts." "An Ning and An Qing's jealousy, the emperor's favored heart, and Shen Ninghua's ordinary heart, these are all easy to change, as long as there is a little guidance, who knows what will become.
The queen was in a better mood, sent away the dust, and called Fang Xue directly: "Recently, Princess Anning and Princess Anqing are preparing to get married, their wedding dates are similar, and they are both princesses rewarded by the emperor. ”
"Yes, sissy."
The queen has a successful plan, and she is in a good mood. In the south study, however, there were clouds, and the tense atmosphere was like the sky before a rainstorm and wind, thick and oppressive, almost breathless.
Baili Qingcang slammed the fold to the ground, and his vigorous anger carried a chilling killing intent: "Internal Affairs Division, Yin Clan...... What a good means! Chen Aiqing, you can also take a look, Yin's success is indispensable, and the hospital can't get rid of it! ”
Chen Yun hurriedly knelt down and picked up the fold, and read the above content at a glance.
Yin's father borrowed the hand of the Department of Internal Affairs to transport the fake pregnancy grass into the palace, which gave her the illusion of pregnancy, and even these people had the audacity to think of the follow-up path, and used the secret threat of the Taiyi who knew through the Department of Internal Affairs, bought off a Taiyi preparation, and even privately raised more than a dozen pregnant women, just waiting for the day of Yin's birth through the hands of the Department of Internal Affairs and the Taiyi, and sent a boy into the palace to become a "prince".
"Confuse the royal bloodline, slut, this slut!" If it weren't for the fact that the Yin clan was dead, Baili Qingcang would definitely cut her with a thousand knives now!
