Chapter 52: Entrustment
The queen said slowly, "It's not that I haven't thought about it, it's because I have thought about it and thought it through, so I hope that the person recognized by Jinghong is safe and reliable, and can help her wholeheartedly." ”
"I see." Jiuzun nodded and stood up, "Then Niangniang doesn't need to worry about it, in this world, only this king can stand side by side with Hong'er!" ”
"Why did the prince say this?"
"Niangniang, it's not a secret, the first time this king saw Hong'er was in the council hall in this palace, but that shocking glance made this king change the will of the royal brother without authorization." Jiuzun took some pride and paced leisurely, "At that time, Niangniang and Emperor Yun would refuse, which was expected by this king. Many years later, Benwang saw Hong'er's amazing dancing again, which was even more unforgettable, so he kept following her until three years ago. ”
The queen nervously lifted her heart, she knew what Jiuzun was about to say.
"Three years ago, Hong'er suffered Gu poison in this palace, did Niangniang and Yunhuang really not know at all?" Jiuzun pressed on the queen step by step, but he was always at a distance, "Even this king can see some clues, how can you hide from Hong'er!" ”
"Yes, Hongu, Hongu doesn't want to either!" The queen shook her head, she was aware of the emperor's intention to use Jinghong to make a dangerous move, but she couldn't participate in it, let alone change the emperor's mind.
"Hong'er is poisoned and in more and more pain, but you don't care about it and let her go out alone to seek medical treatment? It's a shame that Hong'er thinks so much about you and Yunguo, but I don't know that you are also sacrificing her! ”
"Nope! No! The queen took a few steps back, was helped by the grandmother to sit down, and said with red eyes, "Jinghong is the heart of this palace, how can this palace be willing to give up!" But since they have made a move against Jinghong, Your Majesty and the palace, how can they let it go! ”
"......" Jiuzun stopped and looked at the queen quietly.
"They are bold and harbor evil intentions, as soon as Jinghong stepped out of the palace gate, someone chased after them, His Majesty was worried about Jinghong's safety, and sent Wei Ting and others out." The queen was in pain when she thought of those days, "As a result, the next day, the palace and His Majesty were both poisoned, and it was difficult to protect themselves!" ”
"Niangniang...... "Niangniang held the queen in distress, and raised her eyes to shake her head at Jiuzun, "Your Royal Highness Shura, don't ask anymore, Niangniang has easily improved these days, do you know that Niangniang and Your Majesty have both walked through the Ghost Gate!" ”
"That's why you need Hong'er to grow stronger as soon as possible, don't you?" Jiuzun returned to his chair and sat down, his expression became cold again, "The strength of this king is not only the title of King Shura, this king has been fighting for eight years, and there are eyes and ears of this king in the eighteen imperial dynasties, as long as Hong'er needs it, all this can be her strength!" ”
The queen held her breath and said softly, "Really? ”
Jiuzun picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, because no one dared to come in to change the tea for a long time, and the tea was already a little cold.
"But how do you teach this palace and His Majesty to believe in you? And why can you do this for the sake of Thriller? ”
"With his monstrous ability, if he is an enemy, his son has no chance of winning." Wu Jinghong stepped in, his face was a little solemn, "Queen Mother, my father has already promised my son, why don't you think about it again?" ”
When Jiuzun saw Wu Jinghong, his eyes lit up, and he stood up obediently, followed behind Wu Jinghong, and was silent.
"Hey...... That's it, your father and the emperor have opened their mouths, what else can this palace say? The queen waved her hand, "Jinghong, the queen mother believes in you." ”
"Thank your mother for the fulfillment!"
"Go back, the palace is tired, and it's time to rest."
Withdrawing from Zhaohua Palace, Wu Jinghong's expression was still not relaxed, Jiuzun glanced at it a few times, and saw that Wu Jinghong didn't care about his intentions, so he had to quietly follow until he was in the study of Nihua Palace.
"Uh-huh!"
"Huh? Is His Highness Shura having an uncomfortable throat? Lu Mang stared at Jiuzun strangely, "Wasn't it okay yesterday?" Could it be that the soil and water are not sick? Or did you catch a cold last night when you couldn't sleep? ”
Wu Jinghong's gaze finally looked over, and Jiuzun glared at Lu Mang vigorously, "Which eye do you see that this king is not in good health?" ”
"Huh?" Green Mang blinked innocently, she didn't see, she heard.
"Hehe, Lu Mang, tell me to go down, and there will be one more meal in Nihua Palace in the future. From now on, Jiuzun is the personal guard of the palace, unique. Wu Jinghong chuckled, took out a silver medal from a drawer in the bookcase and handed it to Jiuzun, "This is specially made for you, you only need to claim to be the silver medal guard in front of the palace." ”
"The silver medal guard in front of the palace?" Jiuzun flipped the silver medal over and over again, "Is there a grade?" ”
Qingmang waited for Wu Jinghong to change his robe, Wu Jinghong lifted his hem and sat behind the table, and said indifferently, "When the palace ascends the throne, you will be the second product." Now, just from the four pins. ”
Jiuzun happily took the silver medal in his arms, thought about it and took it out and hung it on his waist, and played with it twice, "It seems that Ben, my subordinates are going to help His Highness get a big position as soon as possible." ”
"The big position can be ascended at any time, and what this palace wants is a suitable time." Wu Jinghong looked at Jiuzun seriously, "Ning Pu has two very interesting test questions, it is better to test you first in this palace." ”
"Your Highness, please speak." Jiuzun looked in a good mood and came to the front of Wu Jinghong.
"What's the plan for the Great Plains?"
Wu Jinghong looked at Jiuzun's strange expression with great satisfaction, and continued, "Is it in line with the ancestral rites for the empress to ascend the throne?" ”
"This ...... What's so hard? Jiuzun shook his eyebrows, suddenly fixed his gaze in Wu Jinghong's eyes, and said word by word, "The rules of the Great Plains are actually what the imperial brother is doing, if you want it, I will take it for you!" ”
Wu Jinghong was stunned for a moment, and then listened to Jiuzun continue, "This second question is even more of a joke, Zu Li?" How many ancestral rites are there? How many people in the world know? Isn't it all the truth that the winner is king, and the loser is the loser? ”
"......" Wu Jinghong quietly looked at Jiuzun for a while, trying to see something from those bright phoenix eyes, but finally escaped in his increasingly enthusiastic gaze. She shook her head and said helplessly, "You know what this palace wants." ”
"That's now." Jiuzun's eyes didn't blink, only following Wu Jinghong's eyes, "When you become the Cloud Emperor and open your vision, you will see more, and you will want to protect more." At that time, you will also want more. ”
Wu Jinghong continued to shake his head, "No, as long as this palace is in the cloud country, it can only protect the cloud country." ”
Jiuzun blinked, leaned back in his chair, and said in a brisk tone, "It's okay, in short, the subordinates are now His Highness's people, where His Highness is, his subordinates are there." In this life, His Highness can't run away! ”
I don't know when, there were only two of them left in the study of Nuoda, Wu Jinghong only felt that after listening to Jiuzun's words, her face began to get hot, fortunately, there was no one else left and right, she knelt on the table, rolled up her sleeves and took a pen, and said in a faint voice, "In this case, the back of this palace will be handed over to you." ”
"Your Highness, Liu Yuan and Qin Ruan Wen ask to meet."
Wu Jinghong, who had just put down the pen, trembled her wrist, and the rice paper was soon stained with ink, and she put down the pen without changing her face, "Call them in." ”
"The criminal minister Liu Yuan knocked to see Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"The criminal minister Qin Ruan Wen knocked to see Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Wu Jinghong didn't raise his head and said, "You two are positive, this palace hasn't looked for you yet, so you will appear in front of this palace by yourself." ”
Jiuzun stood in front of the table with a big knife that he had taken out of nowhere, looking at the two heads condescendingly.
Liu Yuan and Qin Ruanwen didn't dare to answer, they only knelt down, unable to see what Wu Jinghong was doing, let alone Jiuzun's unscrupulous gaze.
"Tell me, you took the initiative to find it, what do you want to say?" Wu Jinghong put down the pen, blew dry the ink, and slowly handed the note to Jiuzun, "Give it to Chimang, she knows how to do it." ”
Jiuzun took it in his hand, glanced at Wu Jinghong, and saw that she didn't react, so he secretly opened the note and looked at it, and the hairpin on it was neat and beautiful-rest the palace gate and clean up the imperial capital.
Chimang was guarding outside the hall, and when she saw Jiuzun waving at her, she walked over with a cold face, "Your Highness has an order?" ”
"Whoa." Jiuzun flicked the note over, "For you." ”
Chimang took it in his hand, and when he looked up, he only saw Jiuzun's arrogant back.
"The guilty have come to receive their punishment."
"Receiving the penalty?"
"The guilty minister is guilty, please make a decision on your highness!"
Wu Jinghong stopped talking, this Liu Yuan's attitude was too upright, or did he know that he couldn't move him for the time being, so he had no fear? It's just another one, looking at it like this, it doesn't look like he took the initiative to confess, this Qin Ruan Wen, Ning Pu seems to have said that he is a stubborn temper.
"Qin Ruanwen, are you guilty?" Wu Jinghong intended to try him, "Since you also took the initiative to come, you must have come to receive the punishment, then the palace will dismiss you and investigate it, are you convinced?" ”
“…… Your Highness! Qin Ruan Wen held back the weather for a while, and finally raised his head unwillingly, "Your Highness! Wechen is not convinced! ”
"Oh? What else do you have to say? ”
"Wechen is a man who stands up to the sky, he is innocent as an official, Wechen and Liu Hanlin are brothers in the same class, because they have more personal relationships, and we are also innocent, neither the rumors in the market that broke their sleeves, nor did they form a party for personal gain, Wechen is wronged!"
Wu Jinghong nodded and looked at Liu Yuan, who had been refusing to look up, "Liu Yuan, why don't you come and tell this palace what crime you know and what punishment you will receive!" ”
Liu Yuan slowly raised his head, his eyes only fell to the ground, and said lightly, "The criminal minister knew that the rumors in the market ignored it, disrupted the order of the imperial capital, and set a bad example for the students of this winter examination. ”
"What nonsense are you talking about! The rumors were made up by those idlers, what do we have to do with it! What bad example have we made? Can't drink in Hualou? None of us stayed there overnight! What's more, you and I don't have a family, what's wrong with going to Hualou once in a while? None of the Manchu officials have ever been there! ”
