Chapter 9 Let's take the blame together
"Mr. Zhou, you have been saved this time." After figuring out this joint, Cheng Runnian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Zhou Qi looked puzzled and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Cheng Runnian's face was stunned, he couldn't figure it out, no wonder the emperor said that Zhou Qi was not good at being an official, and his brain was really not bright enough.
Just as he was about to explain, he suddenly heard a weak voice from behind.
"Brother Cheng's intention is to let the king of Zhenbei fight against this crime with his father?"
After Cheng Runnian's eyes surrendered, he saw Zhou Qi's son Zhou Ming sitting up.
Zhou Qi's eldest son died early, and this youngest son Zhou Ming is an old man, so Zhou Ming's age is just a little older than Cheng Runnian, and he is called Brother Cheng.
Looking at the mind, Zhou Ming is undoubtedly better than his father.
"yes, that's what I meant." Cheng Runnian said, looking at the scars on Zhou Ming's body, and couldn't help frowning.
Maybe he was afraid that Zhou Qi, an old bone, would not be able to stand the punishment, his criminal law seemed to be all added to Zhou Ming, and now Zhou Ming's injuries do not have to be less, or even much more, the situation is really tragic.
Zhou Ming coughed twice and said, "But Brother Cheng, aren't you afraid of causing the disgust of the King of Zhenbei by doing this?" ”
Cheng Runnian laughed: "Of course I'm afraid, so before that, I have to go to the king of Zhenbei to ventilate." ”
"In addition, since it is clear that your father was framed, then your father's crime can be big or small, besides, isn't the relationship between your father and the king of Zhenbei not bad? It's just a small black cauldron, and it does have the responsibility of the king of Zhenbei in it. ”
"I want to come to Zhenbei, since the king of Zhenbei has a good relationship with your father, he shouldn't refuse, otherwise he ......"
Otherwise, the king of Zhenbei is a ghost.
These words were not spoken, but Zhou Ming had already understood and remained silent.
This kind of topic is not dare to be discussed.
"If you wait for me for a few more days, I will protect your lives, but this official position is probably not guaranteed."
Cheng Runnian said, finally saying goodbye.
Out of the prison, Zhang Lian was really waiting outside, and as soon as he saw Cheng Runnian coming out, he immediately greeted him.
"Master Cheng, where are we going after that?"
It was also cleverly said, without the slightest intention of exploring what was going on inside the prison.
Cheng Runnian didn't answer in a hurry, but bowed his hand to Zhang Lianyi: "Father-in-law, I see that Zhou Ming has a lot of wounds on his body, and I'm afraid he won't be able to last a few days if he goes on like this, I wonder if I can bother my father-in-law to send some food and medicine in?" ”
Zhang Lian was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said in horror: "Your Excellency is holding your majesty's jade plate, if Your Majesty is here in person, how can you salute the slave and maid, your lord must not!" ”
"As for what the adults say, there is no problem."
Cheng Runnian didn't expect Zhang Lian to react so much, and smiled apologetically.
"Then thank you father-in-law."
"Don't dare."
Zhang Lian said, then got up and ordered the matter, the jade plate in Cheng Runnian's hand was still very useful.
After that, Cheng Runnian said, got up and went to Zhenbei Wangfu.
There is also a Zhenbei Wangfu in the capital, but it is not a place to live for a long time, every year the Zhenbei Wang's family will return to the capital to live for about a month, and the rest of the time is empty.
It's just that before he left the imperial city, he saw a group of maids and eunuchs flocking towards Cheng Runnian, and the one leading the team at the front was the little princess Ruoyun.
"Brother Fairy, where have you been, I have searched several places but I can't find you."
The little princess ran a lot of places along the way, first went to the imperial study, learned that Cheng Runnian had left, and then went to the Vermilion Bird Gate, but did not wait, and then chased to the prison, but it was still too late.
Fortunately, before Cheng Runnian left the imperial city, he was blocked.
"Little princess, why are you here?" Cheng Runnian also likes this cute little Lori, but now that he has something to do, he is ready to send her away, "I'll come back and play with you, I have something important now." ”
Cheng Runnian is only a little princess because of his playfulness, after all, he is a child.
However, the little princess shook her head and said, "Brother Fairy, I'm afraid, don't leave me, okay." ”
"I feel like something has been staring at me, could it be a ghost again."
The little princess said, really showing a frightened look, it didn't look like a fake.
Cheng Runnian was a little puzzled, isn't the little princess's fright?
After looking at it carefully for a few seconds, I found that the little princess was just a little scared, not to the level of frightening.
I guess it's because the time is too short, and I haven't fully recovered.
After thinking about it, Cheng Runnian squatted down and said softly: "Little princess, I'm going to find King Zhenbei now, and I'll go to you when I come back, okay?" ”
The little princess looked a little embarrassed, and hesitated: "Are you going to find the imperial uncle?" Can the fairy brother take me with you? ”
Cheng Runnian scratched his head, he used to find the king of Zhenbei to take the blame, and he didn't go to chatter, how can this be brought together.
But at this time, the old palace maid came over and said, "Mr. Cheng, the king of Zhenbei is also the uncle of the little princess, so you can take her with you." ”
Cheng Runnian was entangled for a while, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
This is the emperor's favorite little princess, if he turns around and complains, what will the emperor blame him.
"Okay, then take it."
Hearing this, the little princess smiled again, stretched out her little hand and grabbed the corner of Cheng Runnian's clothes.
Cheng Runnian was directly taken aback, where is this done, and hurriedly took his little hand in his hand.
The old palace maid watched from behind, and a little surprise flashed in her eyes.
You know, the little princess is a little scared, except for those familiar people, no one else even wants to touch it, the little princess and Cheng Runnian have only met for two days, and the little princess actually took the initiative to hold Cheng Runnian's hand?
Cheng Runnian is now distracted elsewhere, as if he hasn't noticed what kind of seed he planted with his psychological hints yesterday.
That's it, saving the little princess from the brink of collapse is no less than a life-saving benefactor.
……
Riding the princess's carriage all the way to the Zhenbei Palace, the porter recognized it as the royal carriage, and when the carriage had not stopped, he went in to report.
Cheng Runnian took the little princess down, and just happened to see a mighty man walking out, it was the king of Zhenbei.
When King Zhenbei saw Cheng Runnian holding the little princess, he couldn't help but be surprised.
You know, if he wants to hold the little princess, he can't hold it.
Surprised, King Zhenbei couldn't help but look at Cheng Runnian, seeing that this person was so strange, and he didn't seem to be like a eunuch in the palace, he was immediately puzzled.
At the same time, Cheng Runnian was also quietly looking at the king of Zhenbei, the king of Zhenbei was not tall, but with this domineering temperament on his body, he could also afford the name of the king of Zhenbei.
"In the next Cheng Runnian, for Zhou Qi's matter, I came to meet the king of Zhenbei."
