Finally relenting! Zhu Feng almost cried with joy, and hurriedly said: "My subordinates are going to tell Miss Weinong!" β
"Wait," now that the decision has been made, Yunchen has also instantly turned passive into active, "I can tell Wei Nong the secret of the four great divine soldiers." But if she wants to save me, she is not enough alone. Since she asked Yuan Che for help, she must have promised him some benefits, rather than that, why don't I negotiate terms with them. β
Zhu Feng suddenly became nervous: "What are you going to talk about?" β
"You let Wei Nong go and tell Yuan Che that I am willing to exchange the secrets of Long Yin and Jinghong. As for Qingluan and Huofeng, let her hide it for the time being. β
*****
A day later, the Marquis of Wei's residence.
"So my dragon sword still has a secret?" Yuan Che was surprised at first, and then suddenly smiled: "No wonder Yunchen has not yet arrived in Ningguo, so he took the initiative to show favor to our Weihou Mansion." β
At the beginning, Yuan Che thought that Yunchen wanted to find a backer in Ningguo, so he fell in love with their father and son. I didn't expect ...... It turned out to be for this sword?
"Qingluan, Huofeng, Longyin, Jinghong, I have also heard of these four divine soldiers." Yuan Che thought thoughtfully, "But since Long Yin Jinghong has a secret, does Qingluan Huofeng have it?" Where are those two divine weapons? β
Wei Nong couldn't figure out how much he had guessed, and whether he was playing his own words, so he replied: "Qingluan Fire Phoenix is not a sword weapon, it is my pair of Emei thorns." According to Yunchen, Qingluan Huofeng is just a foil, and the real secret is in the Dragon Yin Sword and the Shocking Sword. β
Yuan Che was obviously skeptical.
Wei Nong sighed deliberately: "Think about it, if Qingluan Huofeng also has a secret, how can it fall into the hands of a wasted queen of mine?" How could the Yan royal family be brought out by me? β
Yuan Che raised his eyebrows slightly: "Maybe the Yan royal family doesn't know this secret?" β
"Then Yunchen always knows, right?" Wei Nong immediately retorted: "If Qingluan Huofeng really has a secret, it is too late for Yunchen to approach me, how can he push me out?" β
This reason is very practical, and Yuan Che believes it a little. However, he is not a fool, so he naturally will not take the bait easily: "How do I know if this secret is big or small?" If I had tried my best to save him, and he only gave me a few cabbages, wouldn't I have lost a lot? β
Slightly thick laughed: "How is this possible!" β
Yuan Che shrugged: "I'll just make an analogy." Unless it's a very tempting secret, why should I take the risk? If the Dragon Yin Sword is only hidden in some gold and silver treasures, then I am not rare. β
Certainly not gold and silver treasures! At least, it's not just gold and silver treasures! Wei Thick speculated that the four great divine soldiers who could make Chu Li plan for many years, and even took his own marriage into it, did not hesitate to find it, and even after the death of the country, he still remembered it, and spent a huge price to approach the Wei Hou Mansion to obtain the Dragon Yin Sword...... The secrets hidden in these four divine weapons must be very important!
But after all, her experience is limited, and she doesn't know much about the affairs of the court, so she really can't imagine what this secret will be. She could only say vaguely: "It is absolutely impossible for Yunchen to change his face and come to Ning Kingdom after the death of the country, and to get close to you to obtain the Dragon Yin Sword." β
Yuan Che also thought about it when he heard this, thought about it, and then asked with a smile: "Seeing that you are so attentive, do you also want to come and get a piece of the pie?" Or do you really have a deep affection for Yunchen, that's why you want to save him? β
Wei Nong was silent and did not answer immediately. She thought about it before and after, only a half-truth and half-truth answer could convince Yuan Che, a thief peacock, so she replied half-truthfully: "I don't have a deep affection for him, but I want to keep the bloodline of the Chu royal family." Of course, I don't deny it, I'd love to know the secret. β
Yuan Che was completely interested: "Oh? You, a relative of the Yan Kingdom, the daughter of the eldest princess, how could you want to keep the Chu royal family? β
Wei Nong deliberately made an unspeakable look and looked at him defensively.
Yuan Che pretended to sigh and retreated: "If you don't want to say it, forget it." Anyway, if you don't say it, I can't make a judgment; If I can't make a judgment, I don't know how to rescue it; I can't be rescued, and it's not me who dies; As for the secret of the Dragon Yin Sword and the Thrilling Sword, I don't have to think about snatching the Thrilling Sword and then slowly pondering it myself. β
Wei Nong listened to this speech, and almost wanted to give Yuan Che four big words: inch by inch! However, she also knew that her entanglement with Yunchen couldn't be hidden, rather than waiting for Yuan Che to investigate, it was better for her to confess herself, at least what to say and what not to say, she knew best.
"This story is very long and boring, and it also involves some palace secrets, I hope you will be patient to listen to it." Wei Nong gave a reminder first.
"Don't worry, don't worry, I like to listen to the secrets of the palace the most!" Yuan Che sat down with a smile, with a look of deafness, ready to "fight a protracted war".
Wei Nong had to start recalling, starting from being mistaken for the illegitimate daughter of King Yan, and continuing to talk about how he became Nie Xingyi's queen by mistake. In the meantime, she subconsciously erased the entanglement with Nie Xingji, and did not say that she was the queen of the queen's life, let alone Chu Li's motive for marrying her back then, only that the queen Helian Biyue was reluctant to marry Princess Jincheng far away, so she pushed her, the princess of Qingcheng, who had just recognized her ancestors and returned to her ancestors, to get married. And the pair of Emei thorns are one of the dowries given to her by King Yan.
Yuan Che, like all those who heard about this affair, mistakenly thought that after the fall of the Chu State, King Yan felt ashamed of her, so he promised the position of Princess Yan and let her change her name and surname to become the daughter of the eldest princess.
Therefore, Yuan Che, like everyone else, couldn't help but sigh: "Yan Gaozong still has a conscience, and he didn't leave you alone." β
Wei Nong chatted and smiled after hearing this, and didn't defend anything.
Who knew that Yuan Che's words changed: "But Yan Gaozong is too stupid, and you are not the material for the queen at first glance." Back then, no one had the option to be the princess of Chu, why did you let you be the princess again after returning to China? It's better to give you a few mountains of gold and silver. β
It was obviously a sad thing that he didn't want to mention, but when Yuan Che said this, Wei Nong couldn't help laughing.
Yuan Che also understood her obsession with the Chu royal family, including why she turned against Nie Xingyi back then, and why she was abolished in the end. Although he doesn't agree with Wei Nong's "love house and black" temperament, he can also understand her obsession for so many years.
It seems that Chu Li treated her well back then.
"Wait!" Yuan Che suddenly realized something: "Speaking of which, how many years older are you than the real Twilight?" β
"Five years older." Wei Nong not only did not feel ashamed, but smiled: "After the New Year, I will be twenty-five." β
"Twenty-five? Are you embarrassed to say that? You old woman! Yuan Che was angry and sarcastic. He suddenly had a feeling that he had been deceived for a long time, and this feeling was far more unpleasant than knowing Wei Nong's true identity!
"You're five years older than me!" He still felt incredible.
"So I have to thank you." Looking at him with a slight smile: "You think I am too young!" β
"I'm five years older, and I'm still so naΓ―ve!" Yuan Che snorted coldly unconvinced.
Who the hell is naΓ―ve? Wei Nong didn't want to fight anymore. Seeing that he was getting farther and farther away, and there were signs of anger, she hurriedly pulled the topic back: "Having said so much, you just want to know why I keep pestering Yunchen." Now that you know, are you willing to lend your noble hand? β
Yuan Che glanced at her, and then slowly explained: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not an old lady who likes to inquire about things." I want to know the cause and effect, and how to save him. β
If you get cheap, you can sell well! Wei Thick slandered in his heart, but his face was perfunctory: "Yes, yes, yes!" Your great kindness, Yunchen must be 'toothless and unforgettable'. β
Yuan Che suddenly turned his anger into a smile, and he laughed so happily that Wei Nong was confused.
"I suddenly thought of something," Yuan Che laughed so much that tears were about to come out, "Do you like Chu Li or Chu Heng?" β
"What do you mean?"
"According to what you said, the reason why you chased Ning Guo was because you mistook Yunchen for Chu Li. I can't even recognize my husband, do you think you're stupid? Yuan Che smiled and patted his thigh: "My brother is dead, you shouldn't take a fancy to your younger brother, right?" β
This incident poked at the bottom line of Weiqiang, and she turned around and left. Seeing this, Yuan Che hurriedly shouted behind her, "Hey, hey...... Queen, I haven't finished asking yet! I have one last word to say! β
Wei Nong knew that he was very good at playing tricks, and he was afraid that annoying him would make the rescue plan fall short, so he had to stop and turn around again, and said expressionlessly: "If it's sarcasm, you don't have to say it." β
Yuan Che had already restrained her smile when she heard this, and her face was solemn that she had never seen before: "I can say ugly things ahead, I didn't save him all for the secret of the Dragon Yin Sword, but also believed that he had no intention of subverting Ning Guo...... Once he deceives me, you can wait to collect his body! β
*****
The next day, Yuan Che entered the palace and waited for an afternoon before waiting for King Ning to receive him. He walked into King Ning's bedroom with a sad face, and as soon as he saw him, he knelt down and pleaded guilty: "Grandfather Wang, grandson knows that he is wrong. β
King Ning was very surprised, because today Yuan Che was dressed very plainly, and he was not wearing red and green as before. However, this did not eliminate his anger, and he still had a calm face: "If you come to admit your mistakes, accept them alone." You're good to go. β
"Grandfather Wang......" Yuan Che urgently pleaded: "Grandson, I implore you to let Lord Yun live!" β
With a "bang", a jade Ruyi flew towards Yuan Che and smashed heavily on his forehead. Suddenly, his forehead was red and swollen, and his skin was broken.
However, he still didn't realize it, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Grandfather Wang! Lord Yun, he really doesn't have two hearts! β
"Are you the prince of Wei Hou after all?" King Ning asked in a deep voice: "Intercede for him indiscriminately, do you know who he is?" Yes? β
"My grandson knows." Yuan Che said with a wilt: "He is the second prince of Old Chu, and he is known as Hou Chu Heng." β
"Then you dare to intercede for him?" King Ning's anger was a little higher: "Do you know how dangerous it is for him to design the commander of the Gyeonggi Defense Division to become his man?" It is no exaggeration to say that he just wants to take the entire city of Li into his pocket! He is trying to subvert the power of King Ning! Pave the way for his restoration! β
"No, no, no! That's not true! Yuan Che hurriedly explained: "Grandfather Wang! Although he is a descendant of the old Chu, he just wants to eradicate Nie Xingji with the help of Ning Guo. He never thought of subverting us! β
"Are you the roundworm in his stomach? You know exactly what he thinks? King Ning was furious when he heard this, and reprimanded him angrily: "Don't think I don't know what your idea is!" Who else can you hide from your filthy mind? Shameless! You ridiculous! β
The more King Ning thought about it, the more angry he became, others were confused by beauty, but his grandson was indistinguishable from right and wrong for the sake of men, and even disregarded the righteousness of his family and country! It's all a joke of their Ning royal family!
"Grandfather Wang! Why is your grandson so manly, don't you know it? Yuan Che seemed to think of something terrible, his face was very frightened, and he was slightly aggrieved.
Seeing this, King Ning's heart softened suddenly, and he also regretted that he had spoken too heavily and hurt Yuan Che's heart. He was silent for a moment, sighed and shook his head: "Don't mention the things back then, you have refused to get married for so many years, you have refused to be an errand, and you have been left alone!" But Yunchen, you are not allowed to interfere in this matter again! β
"Grandfather Wang, Shengming, there is no favoritism between your grandson and Lord Yun, it's not what you think!" Yuan Che was so anxious that he almost cried: "Lord Yun is definitely not a broken sleeve...... Even if you give your grandson a hundred dares, your grandson will not dare to blaspheme the important ministers of the country and bring shame on the royal family. But this time...... It's all your grandson's idea, you really wronged Lord Yun! β
"All your idea?" King Ning was taken aback: "What do you mean?" β
Yuan Che covered his swollen forehead, trying his best to cover up his gaffe: "The intersection between Chen Gong and Lord Yun...... It's all at the behest of grandchildren. β
One sentence made King Ning very angry: "Yuan Che! Do you know what you're doing? β
Yuan Che nodded: "Grandson is just unwilling...... Unwilling to ......"
King Ning looked at him with a pale face, and the crane-haired old man who originally seemed to be a mercy haze instantly became murderous.
Yuan Che finally shed a few tears, and his face almost became distorted: "Uncle Prince...... He clearly belongs to me! Why didn't you choose me? That Qi Zhan, an illegitimate son who came out of nowhere! You'd rather believe him than me! I'm not convinced! Defy! I'm going to fight him! β
When it came to the end, Yuan Che almost forgot about the dignity of the elders and the young, and stood up from the ground in a daze. His handsome eyes were filled with tears, both fragile and stubborn: "Where can I compare to him?" Except that he is a few years older than me, and he can kill people better than me, is he as smart as me? If he hadn't come out halfway, I'd ...... I...... ...... long overdue"
He didn't finish his sentence, because to go any further would be to commit a great sin of treason. But he believed that King Ning must have understood, and he just wanted to take the opportunity to probe King Ning's tone.
