Chapter 191: Moths to the Fire (1)
"Chu Li helped you? It was for him that you brought Chu Heng to Jiang Guo? Wei Nong immediately woke up from the past.
Queen Jiang nodded: "When I ran away, it was the six-year-old Fuxi who pretended to be sick and dragged my father to escape. Later, when Yan and Chu fought, he sent people to Jiang Guo to ask for help, and I promised him that I would keep the Chu family in the name of diplomatic relations. If it weren't for his face, I wouldn't have been nosy! ”
Haven't you thought that you hurt Chu Heng, should you compensate him? Wei Nong wanted to ask that, but from beginning to end, she didn't ask. After all, this is Queen Jiang's family matter.
She just pondered for a moment, and then asked sideways, "It seems that you have a good relationship with Chu Li?" ”
"After I returned to the palace, I took care of him for a long time." Queen Jiang had slowly calmed down at this moment, revealing a rare and rare soft color.
Wei Nong thought for a while, and then asked, "Then how did Yunchen's identity come about?" I have seen the results of Momen's investigation, and they are detailed and well-founded, not like a fraud. ”
"Yunchen does have someone, I'm afraid Momen's investigation is true." Queen Jiang sighed lightly: "He is the grandson who was abandoned by Chun Yuye, the prime minister of Ningguo, and he is indeed a master and has the talent to pass through the heavens and latitudes. However, when I visited him in the 100,000 mountains, he had not long passed away. ”
"He's sick?" Wei Nong asked hurriedly.
"yes." Queen Jiang's tone was quite regretful: "His ambition has always been to raise his eyebrows for mica, but unfortunately before he could come out, mica died of illness." He was sad and depressed, and he used to study day and night, and he had already exhausted himself. At that time, Brother Heng was treating his face injury in the 100,000 Mountain, and after hearing about his background, he wanted to replace his identity. He agreed before he died, but put forward two conditions, one was to bring down Chun Yu's family, and the other was to take care of his sister Yunxiao. ”
So today's Yunxiao is the real Yunxiao, but Yunchen is Chu Heng's pretence. This explains the meaning of Yingluo's "brother fetish", I'm afraid Yunxiao is really in love with her fake brother.
Wei Nong had thousands of questions in her heart, but she didn't want to reveal her details all at once, so that Queen Jiang could take precautions. She thought about it, picked out the most superficial question, and then asked: "I don't know if Niangniang can tell me why Chu Heng went to Ningguo instead of Yunchen?" ”
"If I say I don't know, do you believe it?" Queen Jiang asked rhetorically.
Wei Nong didn't answer, and the meaning was obvious.
Queen Jiang sighed helplessly: "Brother Heng has never had a heart-to-heart with me, and after he arrived in Ningguo, he only let me do four things." ”
Listen to the ears and ears.
"Help him restore his appearance, arrange a new identity for him, build momentum for him to go to Ningguo, and lend him 10 million taels of silver."
These four things are not difficult to do with Queen Jiang's strength. If Chu Heng was really not very close to her, it would not be too much for him to put forward these four conditions, at least one sister and brother, Queen Jiang should not refuse. Wei Nong thought so, and didn't ask anything more: "Thank you for telling the queen mother, the people have remembered these words of yours." ”
Queen Jiang naturally heard her perfunctory meaning, so she also said bluntly: "Brother Heng sent me a letter to let me explain his identity clearly, so that you can die." ”
The implication is to ask her not to disturb Yunchen anymore. He pursed his lips slightly and didn't answer.
Queen Jiang looked at her with pity and softened her tone: "You are a good girl, and you are infatuated with Fuxi, and he is also comforted by the knowledge of the spring." But you'd better not ask about Brother Heng's affairs, he has been suppressed since he was a child, and now he has encountered the difficulty of breaking the country, and he is very angry. ”
Angry? Wei Nong savored the meaning of these four words in his heart.
"He may treat you well for Fuxi's sake, but if you sabotage his plan, how can he spare it?" Queen Jiang's words were quite warning.
How does Micro Brown not understand? It's one thing to understand, it's another thing to die.
When Queen Jiang saw her reaction, she knew that she would not die easily, so she sighed softly and hinted: "Actually, it is not difficult to guess what Brother Heng is planning, you are a girl who knows how to measure, why do you want to put yourself in danger?" Isn't the lesson in the 100,000 mountains enough? ”
"Lessons?" Wei Nong suddenly raised his eyes to look at Queen Jiang, and a cold light shot out of his eyes.
Queen Jiang was finally shocked by this gaze, and then her face was as usual: "Lian Kuo said." ”
Wei Nong immediately continued: "Mr. Meng Liankuo has rescued him three or four times, and the people are really grateful. ”
While she said this, she kept staring at Queen Jiang. The latter no longer had any expression, but asked faintly: "Since someone has attacked you, it can be seen that you have threatened others." Find out who did it? ”
Isn't this knowingly asked? Even Nie Xingji knew who it was, how could Queen Jiang not know? However, Wei Nong didn't pierce it in the end, thought about it, and replied directly: "It's the guard next to Yunchen, Zhufeng." I only know him. ”
Queen Jiang raised her eyebrows slightly: "Oh? That's kind of interesting. He first repaired the book to me and let me tell you the truth. He sent guards to attack him again, did he regret it? ”
Wei Nong smiled, didn't respond, and didn't look at Queen Jiang again. This was actually a very rude performance, but the three people in the hall did not show a trace of emotion, and they were all silent.
After a while, Wei Nong turned to Ji Feng and said, "Master, I have something I want to say to the queen mother alone, can you go back to the inn and wait for me first?" ”
Ji Fengzhi's eyebrows frowned slightly, as if he was considering.
Wei Nong smiled and said, "The queen is heavily guarded here, what are you worried about?" ”
Ji Fengzhi looked at her confident smile, and finally nodded, but he meant something: "You are here with the queen's mother, so you will naturally not worry about being a teacher." I'm afraid that on the way back to the inn, you will encounter something to cause trouble. ”
"No, it won't." smiled slightly, and then glanced at Queen Jiang: "The queen will definitely send someone to escort me." ”
The master and apprentice sang and harmonized, and from beginning to end, Queen Jiang did not react, did not say escort, nor did she say no send.
Ji Fengzhi nodded with satisfaction, got up and saluted.
As soon as he left with his front foot, Queen Jiang showed a faint smile: "What else do you want to ask?" ”
"A lot, but I'm afraid the mother won't tell me anymore." Slightly thick, neither humble nor overbearing.
"Actually, your straightforward personality is very similar to me when I was young. If it weren't for Fuxi's affairs, I would have liked you. Queen Jiang was also blunt.
Wei Nong had nothing to say about this matter, she took a sip of the tea that had already been cold, and considered how to say the following words. After thinking about it for a while, he thought that he was not a person with twists and turns, so he went straight to the point: "If the folk girl is not wrong, Niangniang will not let our master and apprentice go to Ningguo again." ”
"Not bad." Queen Jiang admitted with a smile: "It seems that my words were not in vain. ”
"You are the queen of Jiang Kingdom, if you want to stop our master and apprentice, I'm afraid we won't be able to get out of Cangyu City." Wei Nong has long recognized the facts.
Queen Jiang's smile did not change.
Wei Nong asked lightly: "Are you afraid that after I go to Ning Kingdom, I will spoil Yunchen's major affairs and put him in danger?" Or are you afraid that once King Ning discovers something, it will affect your friendship with Ning Guo? ”
"Both."
"Since you are worried, it can be seen that you must know the purpose of his going to Ningguo." This sentence is not a question, and no one needs to answer it.
But Queen Jiang still replied with a smile: "He really didn't mention it to me." ”
Wei Nong felt that she had never been so sober and calm as she was now, and she had never been so nervous, whether she could get out of Jiang Wang's palace today, whether she could achieve her goal, was at this moment!
She pointed at the plum blossom case at hand with her index finger, and deliberately pretended to be indifferent: "Actually, Yunchen's motive for going to Ningguo is not difficult to guess. As the prince of Chu, he must have wanted to use the power of Ningguo, either to take revenge or to restore the country. Now it seems that revenge is the most likely, because the two countries of Yan and Ning have formed a confrontation, as long as he instigates a little, maybe a war will break out between the two countries, and he can use the hand of King Ning to eradicate Nie Xingji. ”
"It's just your guess, not mine." Queen Jiang still smiled noncommittally.
So far, Wei Nong really doesn't know what the two sisters and brothers have to hide. Regardless of whether Yunchen is Chu Li or Chu Heng for the time being, there is no doubt that he is the prince of Chu State. Even Nie Xingji guessed that he was Chu Heng, could he still guess his intention to change his name and surname? Fools should know to guard against him.
As for how much King Ning knew, Wei Nong was really a little uncertain. But Qi Zhan had seen Chu Li's true face, so he must not be able to dispel his doubts so quickly. With such an analysis, although Yunchen has no worries about his life at present, his future may not be clear.
Wei Nong informed Queen Jiang of his analysis.
But this woman was too difficult to be moved, and she still insisted on refusing to let go: "Even if it is true as you said, Brother Heng's situation is worrying, then why should I believe you?" Could it be that you went to Ningguo to help him? ”
"At least I won't hurt him." Wei Nong immediately threw out his chips: "King Ning and Wang Taisun both know that I am the princess of Qingcheng, so they will naturally pay special attention to my movements." If I insist that Yunchen is not a member of the Chu royal family, King Ning will definitely relax his guard against him and entrust him with heavy use. ”
Hearing this, Queen Jiang immediately asked sharply: "Don't forget, you are from Yan Kingdom." If Brother Heng really wants revenge, what will you do? Who knew you wouldn't report to Nie Xingji? ”
Wei Nong couldn't deny that she was asked by this sentence, which is also the most contradictory thing about her now. Which side is she going to be on? Who the hell is she supposed to help? But this hesitation in her heart, she didn't plan to let Queen Jiang know.
"I won't get involved in the struggle between them, I just want to help Yunchen gain a foothold in Ningguo. Whether he wants revenge or revenge, the first step must first gain the trust of King Ning. But King Ning's grandson, Yuan Zhan, was already suspicious, and Yunchen was not so easy to stand on his feet. Wei Nong paused and persuaded Queen Jiang: "I won't tell you, I have some personal relations with Yuan Zhan, if I say a word, maybe he will believe it." ”
Personal friendship? Queen Jiang looked up and down slightly, and did not hide her sarcasm: "It seems that you are doing well now." has the support of the regent of Yan Kingdom, and also intersects with the grandson of King Ning. ”
If it was left in the past, Wei Nong would definitely be eager to defend himself when he heard this, declaring his loyalty to Chu Li. But now she won't, but will smile subtly: "Then you should also understand that if I stay in Jiang Guo for a long time and there is no news, these two will not stand idly by." ”
"What a 'borrowing power'!" Queen Jiang couldn't help but applaud her for her, and finally didn't dare to underestimate her anymore.
Wei Nong was not modest, so he simply said without scruples: "It's just that you are too unintelligent, and you don't let the bamboo wind cover your face." Or maybe you should have been ruthless and let him kill me with a knife, but unfortunately you showed mercy. ”
