Chapter 30 Clever Schemes

Emperor Xuanwu was happy to be coaxed by him, and smiled heartily, "Since I was a child, Yuchen's mouth has been sweet, well, much better than my sons." Your princess is pregnant, so you naturally have to spend more time with her, and I'm afraid I won't have time to play chess with me in the future. ”

Jing Rong pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, looked at the empty space on the chessboard that was eaten, and said: "As long as Uncle Huang wants to let the imperial nephew accompany you to play chess, the imperial nephew will definitely come back to accompany you even if he is thousands of miles away." ”

"It's all coaxing words, but I'm happy to hear it!" The smile on the corner of Emperor Xuanwu's mouth faded, and he made another move, blocking Jingrong's white son, "Today I have a headache because of Lu Liangzhen's case, and you accompany me to talk, and I am also relieved a lot." ”

Jing Rong also fell behind, stood out of the encirclement, ate a piece of sunspot, and said solemnly: "Today's trial of the three divisions should be over, is this Lu Liangzhen really the murderer behind the scenes?" ”

Emperor Xuanwu unhurriedly picked up a sunspot, flipped his fingers, and then fell, his voice was as calm as a bell, "Well, there are all human and material evidence, and he has no way to quibble." For his own selfish desires, he killed the king of Pingjun and framed the Marquis of Jingyuan and the prince of the Marquis of Jingyuan, which is really intolerable. In addition, it is found that he has done evil things such as embezzlement and bribery, bending the law for personal gain, and disregarding people's lives over the years, which is simply too numerous to write. I really misunderstood him, so I entrusted him with a heavy responsibility. ”

Jing Rong lowered his eyes, hid the sneer in his eyes, and said: "It's all because he is narrow-minded and evil, and the imperial uncle was also blinded for a while, so he simply found out the truth of the matter and ripped off his true face, otherwise the reputation of the court would be ruined by such a faint official." ”

"You've done a lot of work in this matter, and you've done a good job, and I'll give you another reward later." Emperor Xuanwu looked at him deeply, his face moved, and said: "Marquis Jingyuan has been wronged in this matter, so I thought about promoting Xiao Li's official position, and I wanted him to take over Jing Zhaoyin's position, but Dali Siqing and they said that he was too young and had little experience to bear the heavy responsibility of Jing Zhaoyin." You say that these people are really stubborn. Later, I thought about it, and there was a vacancy under Jing Zhaoyin, so I thought about letting him fill it, first train in Zhaoyin's mansion for a few years, and if he performed well, I would give him a promotion. ”

"What the adults said is right, Xiao Li is still uncertain, and he loves to cause trouble, and he can't afford the heavy responsibility of Jing Zhaoyin. Uncle Huang looked up to him and let him experience it, which was already a great grace to him. In the face of the strong siege of Kuroko, Jing Rong quietly resolved the crisis of Baizi, watching Kuroko's pressing offensive step by step, he can only overcome rigidity with softness, neither highlighting his superb chess skills, nor letting himself fall into trouble.

Emperor Xuanwu saw that he had escaped from his own encirclement and interception, and he was even more ruthless, "Which man is not romantic?" Besides, it's not like you're married to a woman from a house. After killing Jingrong's white son, he seemed to sigh and said: "Your uncle is really stubborn, if he stays in the court, he will definitely do something." It's a pity that his talent is buried in the mountains and rivers. ”

Jing Rong was calm and unhurried, facing Emperor Xuanwu's fierce chess skills, his face did not change color, and he said leisurely: "It is my uncle who is too strong to be unsuitable for walking in officialdom, and I don't know how many people I will offend with that temperament." He is envious of his current imperial nephew, and he also looks forward to one day living a life of idle clouds and wild cranes like him, isn't it a great joy in the world. ”

"Nonsense, I have entrusted you with a heavy responsibility, you can't learn from your uncle." Emperor Xuanwu's chess is mainly attacking, making moves and killing machines, and he is sharp every step, although he has the upper hand, but it makes people see the loopholes. Jing Rong pretended not to see the loophole, but changed his way, only defended but did not attack, and deliberately left a gap.

Emperor Xuanwu looked at the loophole, Lang Lang smiled, crisply landed a chess piece, and swallowed a large piece of white, "Your chess is like you, too focused on defense." The man must be ambitious and attack aggressively in order to kill the enemy without leaving a single piece of armor. ”

"Every time Uncle Huang doesn't say let the imperial nephew, the imperial nephew is getting less and less confident." Jing Rong patted his forehead in annoyance, looked at the white child who was picked up with regret, and said.

"Haha, who told you not to be diligent in practicing, I see that your chess skills are not as good as before!" The chess game has been decided, the outcome is obvious, Emperor Xuanwu waved away the chess pieces, and Lang Lang said.

Jing Rong stood up and bowed, "Shame and shame, next time I ask the emperor's uncle, you must be merciful, don't let the emperor's nephew lose too ugly." ”

"You, you, will make me happy." Emperor Xuanwu smiled and pointed at Jing Rong, "Well, at this moment, I feel comfortable, and it's all your credit." ”

"If you can make the imperial uncle happy, it can be regarded as a useful imperial nephew." Jing Rong said humbly.

Emperor Xuanwu raised his hand and beckoned Xu Shou, "Go and bring the glow-in-the-dark grape beads sent by Eyun to King Chen." Then he turned to Jingrong and said, "This is for your princess, this grape has a good meaning, your princess happens to be pregnant, take it to play with her." I will reward you with this jade chess piece, go back and drill and grind more, and you can't lose so badly in the next game with me. ”

Jing Rong said happily: "Thank you Uncle Huang for the reward, this chess piece and the imperial nephew have already been in love, I was thinking about which errand was done and then begged the imperial uncle, today the imperial uncle can be regarded as letting the imperial nephew get what he wants." ”

Emperor Xuanwu stroked his hands and laughed, looking at Jing Rong lovingly and helplessly like an elder, "You kid! It turns out that I've been looking at my things for a long time, and I've been holding it in my heart, okay, you did a good job this time, so I should reward you for this. ”

Jing Rong entered the palace to play chess with Emperor Xuanwu, and as soon as he left, the post on the side of Mufu arrived. Mu Xuefu naturally knew that Mu Zhaolin was looking for her because of the killing of King Pingjun, so she didn't hesitate, and went back to Mu Mansion directly after changing her clothes.

As soon as he returned to Mu Mansion and entered the study, he was faced with Mu Zhaolin's gloomy face.

"You're getting more and more self-conscious now, and it's been so long since the last Praetorian Guard incident that you've been in trouble like this. King Pingjun, Marquis Jingyuan, and Jing Zhaoyin are all involved, do you want me to praise you for your good plan, so that King Chen and the Criminal Department will follow the clues you left to pull down Lu Liangzhen? You think what you're doing is seamless? King Chen is such a smart person, as long as he thinks about it, he knows that he is being led by the nose. ”

Mu Xuefu didn't care, sat on the chair leisurely, completed a set of tea-making process actions like a cloud, took one of the cups and handed it to him, "Don't be angry, beware of being angry." I don't know if King Chen will find out, I only know that even if he finds out, he won't suspect me. Besides, this matter is beneficial to him, he will only bite to death, this matter is done by Lu Liangzhen, maybe he will say thank you to me in his heart. ”

Mu Zhaolin took the tea and drank it all, obviously wanting to use the tea to extinguish the knot in his heart, but he was still angry, "For King Chen, it is good and harmless, but not for King Rui!" This Lu Liang is really King Rui's person, and if you do this, it is equivalent to breaking a line that King Rui buried beside the emperor. ”

Mu Xuefu took the tea for a moment, frowned, and said, "Is it King Rui's person?" After a pause, his eyebrows stretched out, and he snorted: "I can't blame me, who let this Lu Liang really do a lot of evil, but unfortunately let me know that he was bought by those thieves and implemented the plan to drop the bag." I pushed the boat down the river, turned against the guest, and became a thief and was bribed by him to assassinate the king of Pingjun. Maybe God wants to take him in, so I will use him to do everything as if he did it. ”

"You are calculating step by step, knowing that Lu Liangzhen only goes to the Buddha hall on the fifteenth day of the first month of every month to offer incense, so he steals the Jade Buddha after he finishes the incense."

Mu Xuefu snorted slightly, glanced at a red-clothed maid with a double-ring bun and a delicate appearance, and said, "That's why I didn't take Hong Shao to King Chen's Mansion first." The three of them first disguised themselves as thieves to assassinate King Pingjun, and then left behind the spice-stained darts. The darts leave a scent on them, and it's likely that someone who tinkers with spices is the work of someone who often tinkers with spices, so I bought the spice shop in the name of one of the thieves. It is understandable that the thieves used the spice shop as a cover for their identity, and Jin Lu sprinkled some spices along the spice shop to lead them to the city gates. At that time, the city gate was closed, so the outside affairs had to be done by Hongshao, who had left the city early. Actually, I didn't do it very well, but I think in this case I hope things will develop like this. ”

Mu Zhaolin glanced sideways at Mu Xuefu, who looked as cunning as a fox, and analyzed: "Hong Shao led the spices from the city gate to the farmhouse, and then secretly poisoned the wine of those thieves, and also stained their hands with incense powder, which created the illusion of buying murder and killing people, this trick was indeed done carefully. What's going on with the people of the Lu Mansion? Mu Zhaolin looked at her meaningfully, as if he wanted to see her through, but his heart was deepened by Mu Xuefu's jealousy.

"Of course, you don't need a dignified Jing Zhaoyin to come forward in person, you only need a subordinate to do it for you. And this game needs a dead man to be the scapegoat. Mu Xuefu looked at the vigilant look in Mu Zhaolin's eyes, sneered in her heart, pulled Jin Lu and patted her hand, "It's really hard Jin Lu, not only do you have to bury clues, but you also have to do the thing of poisoning and killing, master, I haven't rewarded you yet." ”

As soon as the words fell, Jin Lu's hand was empty, and Jin Lu's hand was dragged away by Hong Shao, "Master, I am also very hard, why didn't you say that you would reward me?" Hong Shao leaned up and massaged Mu Xuefu's shoulder, and said: "The master can't be partial, Hong Shao risked his life to steal from that Jing Zhaoyin's house in broad daylight, and there was no corruption, it was really hard." I don't want any reward, but give some silver, for without silver, gold will be made. ”

Hong Shao is good at everything, but this money-hungry nature really makes people helpless. Mu Xuefu angrily pouted at Bai Yi, and said helplessly: "Give this money-greedy ghost, or we won't be able to go back to the palace today." ”

Hong Shao happily took a purse of silver, and smiled even more pretty, but after recalling the master's words, he suddenly paused, stared at the big round eyes, his lips opened into the word "oh", and blinked quickly a few times, before he seemed to come back to his senses, "Huh? Won't the master let me go to King Chen's Mansion to serve? Although Hong Shao loves money very much, he loves his master more and doesn't want to be separated from his master. ”

"Oily Tone!" Mu Xuefu glanced at her, shifted her gaze to the mist rising from the tea, and said quietly: "You are my hands outside King Chen's mansion, or don't take them back too early." ”
