Chapter 31 The Storm is Coming

As the days passed, the imperial capital of Yunguo gradually filled with a tense atmosphere, with more and more strangers coming and going, and the early dynasty in the palace was dragging on day by day.

"There are so many people who are short of money today, and they are going to be busy, so do they give me a temperament!"

The emperor was furious in the court again, but no one dared to say that those who did not come were kept at home by Her Royal Highness the princess and could not go out.

It's only been half a month, and Wu Jinghong has already caught a dozen officials who colluded with other countries three years ago, and some of these people have been handed over to Wei Ting, and finally they all got a satisfactory result from her.

The court also became more and more depressed, and the civil and military officials felt unprecedented rigor and restraint.

Emperor Yunguo has not been a strict emperor since ancient times, and has always encouraged hundreds of officials to speak freely, but he often fails to grasp the essentials. Hundreds of years have passed, and all the officials of Yunguo only regard them as officials in the court and eat the food of the country, and they do not have the intention of making a difference.

That's why they contacted other countries without scruples just after the end of the Eighteen Emperors Rebellion, and even colluded with each other to murder the princess, thinking that they could get away with the crime. As everyone knows, inaction and seeking to usurp the throne are completely two different concepts, and losing your job and losing your head are not two very different concepts?

As a result, Wu Jinghong's big move ruthlessly rectified the hundreds of officials in Yunguo, and the news spread out, sounding a big alarm for the county officials.

Accompanied by more and more dangerous assassinations.

"Your Highness!" Outside the carriage, Chimang's fierce gaze moved away from the assassin's corpse, and he walked to the side of the carriage while shouting, and was relieved when he heard Wu Jinghong's response.

"I'm fine, how many are there this time?"

"There are more than a dozen of them, like rivers and lakes." Chimang glanced around and waved his hand at the rest of the Qimang, and the rest of them immediately dragged the corpses to the side.

"Even the people from the rivers and lakes have been called, it's really not too troublesome." Wu Jinghong laughed contemptuously, three years ago, she suffered a secret loss from Gu poison, and now she still has medical skills and poison skills, how can she be injured by them so easily? Come hard? Qimang's martial arts are not beyond the reach of ordinary people, so she doesn't have any worries.

"Your Highness, ...... now" Chimang was a little worried, now for her, the safety of Wu Jinghong is the first priority.

"Continue to the Slender Dance Building, Jiuzun has been waiting for a long time."

The carriage was splattered with a little blood, decorating the gorgeous carriage with a little more evil feeling, and Wu Jinghong picked up the corner of the curtain and showed her undisguised smile to the outside of the carriage.

"This king has drunk all the tea, you really made me wait!"

As soon as he entered the door, he heard Jiuzun's voice full of resentment, and Wu Jinghong responded coolly, "That's really rude, but King Shura didn't think to pick up the palace, this road is really not easy to walk." ”

"It's hard to go? Can it be harder than a mountain road? ”

"It's a lot harder." Seeing Jiuzun raise his eyebrows, Wu Jinghong couldn't help laughing, "The carriage is much more comfortable, but there are a lot more roadblocks, which is really annoying." ”

Jiuzun slowly lowered his high eyebrows, and his bright phoenix eyes blinked as he looked at Wu Jinghong, looking like he wanted to say something and stopped. Wu Jinghong glanced back, but did not say a word, poured tea and tasted tea.

After waiting for a while, Jiuzun really couldn't wait for Wu Jinghong to speak, turned around and landed in front of Wu Jinghong, and looked left and right, "It seems that he is not injured, who is it this time?" ”

"Jianghu people."

"Oh?" Jiuzun thought for a while, "Now people from all countries are suspicious, and you are mixed here, so it's not easy to investigate." ”

"No need to check, I know who it is." Wu Jinghong sipped tea leisurely, "He thought that this murder with a knife was very exquisite, but in fact, it had already been exposed, and now that the wedding day was getting closer and closer, he was getting more and more anxious." ”

"Nangong Chen?" Jiu Zun glared suddenly, and the turbulence under his eyes loomed, "Those who dare to touch me, that kid is not small!" ”

Wu Jinghong gently put down the teacup and shook her head helplessly, she didn't expect that this Shura King's way of courting her was such a dead-faced situation, and her father began to entangle her every day if it didn't work, making her cry and laugh repeatedly.

"But how can you be sure it was his hand?"

"He wants to control me before the wedding, according to his words, he wants to marry me, but he doesn't know that Miss Hongyun has already been dropped. Presumably, my move three years ago had already broken his layout, and now he is just trying to make amends. ”

"Tsk!" Jiuzun closed his eyes fiercely, controlling his thoughts. He was annoyed in his heart, but Wu Jinghong didn't let him move Nangong Chen, saying that it was still useful, and he could only hold this breath and wait for the day when the ban was lifted.

"Alright, let's start the treatment!" Wu Jinghong took off his heavy outer skirt, removed the obstruction of the wide sleeves, and then picked up the needle bag and swept it one by one, signaling Jiuzun to lie down.

Half an hour passed, and Chimang whispered outside the door, "Your Highness, it's time to go back to the palace." ”

Wu Jinghong lightly put away the needle bag, covered the quilt for Jiuzun, who was already asleep, and left quietly.

"Your Highness, Xian Wulou has also been visited by several waves of people, and they have all been wiped out by King Shura."

"Leave it to Jiuzun outside the palace, now we are also an alliance, he needs me to treat him, and I also need his strength." She paused and thought for a moment, "But Wei Ting can't be exposed yet, and Qimang will continue to contact him." ”

"Yes!"

Chimang raised his eyes, and the big stone in his heart also put down. These days, King Shura has been showing favor to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and she has volunteered to do a lot of things for Her Royal Highness, and she is also worried that Her Highness will gradually let down her guard because of this! You must know that the Shura King may become the biggest threat to them at any time, and it is necessary to be vigilant.

Now it seems that Her Royal Highness the princess still retains some sanity.

Wu Jinghong caught a glimpse of Chimang's face out of the corner of his eyes, guessed what she was thinking, and could only smile helplessly.

Beware of Jiuzun, it's just a guaranteed strategy, who knows whether Jiuzun's current mood is child's play or serious? She only has so many right-hand men on her left and right, if they are all turned upside down by Jiuzun, in case it is necessary to do so, I am afraid that I will regret it.

For now, at least, Jiuzun was her allyβ€”just the one who could not help her on behalf of Shuo, even though he was the disputable King of Shura. Just from Ming Yuedong's serious Shuo envoy, it can be seen that the Shuo Emperor Jiu Yao's attitude towards her is not so friendly.

Seeing that there was less than half a moon left before Nangong Chen and Lin Qingyan's wedding day, her heart became more and more worried, and she always felt that she had missed something, but when she thought about it, she was comprehensive. Originally, I was going to discuss it with Jiuzun today, but I changed the hexagram temporarily-these are her own affairs, and it is okay to get some help, and it is absolutely impossible to rely on them completely!

She wants to rely on her own strength and wisdom to repel those who have bad intentions one by one!

In the dark night, Wu Jinghong's eyes became brighter and brighter, and she stared at the top of the bed, her eyes focused on the eyes of the fire phoenix embroidered on the curtain on the top of the bed.

Her mind floated in an orderly manner, with faces corresponding to a list. In addition to the portraits that Chimang had shown her, there were also people who had been hidden on the corner of Yunhuang Street and were identified by Jiuzun for her one by one.

"Shuo came to make Mingyue Dong, the righteous sister of the queen of Shuo; Yan Guolai envoy Zhao Qian, Yan Guo Guanglu doctor; Chen Guolai made Li Xiao, the princess's concubine; Xia came to make Wang wise ......"

While recalling each person and their identities, he drew a diagram of the relationship between these people in his mind - Ming Yuedong and Li Xiao are familiar with each other, and it is said that Yuedong was recognized by the queen as a righteous sister and traveled back and forth between Shuo and Chen to deliver news to the queen, and had intersections with many people in Chen Guo. This Zhao Qian of Yan State and Wang Zhizhi of Xia State are also old friends, but they have never greeted people in front of people, and they have avoided private contact with their eyes and ears.

At this moment, Wu Jinghong had to sigh in his heart that Jiuzun was powerful, he could always identify so many people from different countries at a glance, and he could also tell their identities and general backgrounds in passing, but this was what she urgently needed.

There was silence in the general's mansion, and Mao Fan heard that the two staff members had a night talk in the study, looking worried.

"General, even if Her Royal Highness the princess speaks about this matter, she has to come up with real evidence, right?"

"Yes, General Nangong can be regarded as something we grew up watching, how could he have such a mind? He is still young, and you have carefully raised him, and he has experienced a lot after eight years of war, and his future is limitless! How can you do this and destroy your future? ”

Mao Fan raised his eyes and looked at the two staff members, and sighed, "The two gentlemen don't know, if you want to ask who is most familiar with my disciple in this cloud country, that is, Princess Jinghong." ”

The staff all showed puzzled expressions, although Her Royal Highness the princess once had a love for General Nangong, in the end, it was also separated by a layer of etiquette and always kept a distance, how can you be familiar with it?

Mao Fan listened and said slowly, "Although the princess of Jinghong back then was amazing and gorgeous, her love was true and pure, and there were no curves. I can see very clearly that she can't get close to her sweetheart because of etiquette, but she is secretly collecting information and getting to know each other bit by bit. The two gentlemen also said to me that knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is the best way to know from the bits and pieces of life. ”

The staff nodded their heads, these words were correct.

"So when Princess Jinghong came to me to explain this matter with a straight face, I ...... in my heart" Mao Fan shook his head, "I originally thought that the two of them were childhood sweethearts, and the two of them had no guesses, and they could become a good story in the future, but who knew that it was where they are now." Even if the princess didn't come up with evidence, I believed her words, after all, she had no reason to wronged a young talent in Yun Kingdom! ”

At this point, the two staff members were stunned and couldn't help shaking their heads and sighing.

The same general's mansion, different courtyards, were guarded by soldiers who were waiting for them, and there was only one bedroom in the courtyard with the faint light of candles.

In the room was Nangong Chen, who had a blue face, and he sat in front of the bed, staring at the sword hanging on the wall next to the bed.
