Chapter 101: Worthy of Trust

Looking at Ning Yuanzhou's hesitant look, Yang Ying couldn't help but remind, "It was in the mission that His Majesty and Sister Ren were there."

At this time, Ning Yuanzhou suddenly realized: "It's the lower official's clumsiness, and he didn't recognize His Majesty."

Li Hao smiled faintly: "It's okay, Concubine Xian has been away from her homeland for many years, and it is difficult to hide her homesickness in her heart, you and Concubine Xian are also old acquaintances, so stay here to talk to Concubine Xian."

I still have state affairs to deal with, so I'll leave first."

After leaving the Chongde Palace, Li Hao went directly to the inner library, wanting to check the gifts sent by Xia Wuguo.

Of course, this is not Li Hao's greed for money, but he wants to see if these things are mixed with private goods.

After all, letting Ning Yuanzhou, a former Sixth Dao Hall Master, escort the gift, no matter how you think about it, you feel that there is something strange in it.

After arriving at the inner library, Li Hao first asked the eunuch on duty: "Are those gifts that Wuguo sent to Concubine Xian still here?"

The eunuch on duty replied: "Yes, according to the rules, these things must be registered first and then sent to the palace of the virtuous concubine, so they are usually kept in the inner inventory for a day or two."

"Okay, then take me to see those things."

The eunuch on duty had some doubts in his heart, and he didn't understand what Li Hao wanted to see.

But there was no obstacle in action, and he immediately got up and led Li Hao over, and at the same time asked people to bring the gift list.

Immediately, he opened the boxes one by one and introduced them to Li Hao according to the gift list.

Li Hao didn't react to anything else, and it wasn't until he saw a box containing several boxes of rouge of different colors that Li Hao made a move.

Because Liudaotang has a precedent of using rouge to attract letter birds to deliver messages, this is how Ning Yuanzhou contacted him when he rescued Yang Xingyuan in the play.

It's just that Li Hao opened it and looked at it, but he didn't notice any difference between this and other rouges, so he put it back again.

"When you send the things to Concubine Xian, don't you say that I have come to see them?"

The eunuch replied, "The slave understands that His Majesty has never been to the Inner Treasury."

When Yang Ying saw Ning Yuanzhou, the whole person was extremely excited, so she kept pulling him to chat.

cared about his imperial brother and sister-in-law, and inquired about Qian Zhao, Yu Thirteen, and Yuan Lu.

Yang Xingyuan and his wife are nothing, after Queen Xiao gave birth to a daughter in the first child, they gave birth to a son to him every two years, which gave the couple more motivation to work hard.

And Qian Zhao and the others have their own different experiences, as the person who once held Yang Xingyuan hostage in Anguo, he began to be targeted after Yang Xingyuan's position was stable.

In the end, it was Ning Yuanzhou who was able to get out safely, resigned from all official positions, and returned to the mountains and forests.

After that, Sun Lang and Yu were hit by the 13th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and they also chose to resign and go into hiding.

And the worst thing is Yuan Lu, who has always been by Ning Yuanzhou's side and has passed the hurdle of being twenty years old.

But it was just a strong support, and after all, it was because of heart disease, and he fell at the age of twenty-two.

For this reason, Yang Ying's mood also began to become heavy, and it was Ning Yuanzhou who took the initiative to talk about Female Officer Pei and his own children, which made Yang Ying feel better.

Yang Ying has endless things to say, if it weren't for the fact that this palace couldn't let the ministers stay overnight, I was afraid that she would want to pull Ning Yuanzhou to talk all night.

Ren Xin sat with him for a day, and waited until the evening to come to Li Hao.

"You can sit still, don't you want to know what Yang Ying and Ning Yuanzhou said today?"

Li Hao smiled: "It's nothing more than talking about the past, after all, in front of you, even if Ning Yuanzhou wants to do something, he doesn't have the guts."

"Oh, listening to your tone, could it be that this Ning Yuanzhou really has other purposes, but I don't think his concern for Yang Ying is like a fake."

Li Hao explained: "Ning Yuanzhou's mother is Yang Ying's daughter-in-law, and the two have known each other for many years, so this concern is naturally true.

However, as long as people have concerns, they will have weaknesses, and sometimes they are forced to do things that go against their hearts, which is also a common thing."

Saying that, Li Hao told Ren Xin about the few pieces of rouge in the gift.

And told her the most

Pay more attention to Yang Ying recently, after all, Yang Ying is too emotional, and she is easy to be used.

Seeing Li Hao defending Yang Ying like this, Ren Xin couldn't help but smile, and said with a little jealousy: "You care about her, so you are not afraid that I will deliberately frame her and let her bear the charge of Wuguo."

Li Hao smiled, "That's because I believe you won't, after all, your heart is softer than mine."

The affairs of the harem, Ren Xin must be more convenient than Li Hao to stare at, as for the others, they still don't know.

After all, it's okay if Yang Ying doesn't make any moves, otherwise he will become a handle in the hands of others, Li Hao's harem is still harmonious, and Li Hao doesn't want it to mess up.

Ning Yuanzhou, who left the palace, also had a solemn face after returning to the Siyi Pavilion, and all the people who wanted to inquire about the Liudaotang around him were also sent away by him.

But in these Siyi Pavilions, not everyone listens to him, such as Xiao Pu, the deputy envoy of the mission who came this time, he is a member of Empress Xiao's family, and he is also a close confidant sent by Yang Xingyuan to supervise.

"Lord Ning, have you seen the princess today, did you ask anything?"

Ning Yuanzhou replied, "Although I saw the princess today and was left to speak, there were other people around me at that time, so I couldn't help but have some scruples when I spoke, and I didn't get any useful information."

Xiao Pu also felt reasonable when he heard this, so he said, "Yes, it doesn't matter, anyway, the things have already been sent in, so find a way to contact them privately after that."

But the problem Ning Yuanzhou was worried about here, when he was in the mission, Li Hao and Ren Xin had been following, and they had also used rouge birds at that time.

So Ning Yuanzhou couldn't be sure if this way would be detected.

So he took the initiative to say, "Lord Xiao, I think this matter should be cautious, Su Guo Jinyiwei is amazing, my lord doesn't know it.

Now that the mission has just come to deliver something, I am afraid that Su Guo Jinyiwei will pay attention to this matter to some extent, so it is better to wait for the mission to leave Su Guo later, and then let people contact the princess with this.

After all, before leaving, Niangniang also asked us to pay attention to the safety of the princess."

However, Xiao Pu was obviously not very cold, and said: "Niangniang's words can't be ignored, and the rest of the news can be ignored, but we must ask clearly whether Emperor Su wants to use troops against Yan State, as well as His Majesty's true attitude towards refusing to meet the alliance this time, which is also the purpose of our visit this time."

Ning Yuanzhou couldn't help frowning and said, "But ......."

Xiao Pu ignored Ning Yuanzhou's thoughts: "Lord Ning, I know that you are good friends with the princess, but loyalty to state affairs is the foundation of our courtiers.

Besides, Emperor Su is already very fond of the princess, and it is not a confidential news for us to inquire about, even if it is really discovered, there will be nothing, so Lord Ning should not think about it."

Ning Yuanzhou really wanted to slap Xiao Pu to death like he did at the beginning, slapping Zhao Ji to death with one palm.

What does it mean that there will be nothing, this is to probe the emperor's mind, and it is taboo to say anything.

But thinking of his wife and children in Wudu, Ning Yuanzhou could only endure it after all.

"Okay, then I'll find another time, it's always safety first."

When Xiao Pu saw that Ning Yuanzhou knew each other, he also changed his posture, and said with a smile: "Then everything will be up to Lord Ning."

In this matter, Ning Yuanzhou had the mentality of dragging it out if he could, and it wasn't until he was about to leave that he released the signal of Kong Ming's lantern under Xiao Pu's urging.

And in order to ensure that they could be seen by Yang Ying, they also specially organized a large number of them in the name of the celebration of the restaurant chamber of commerce.

Of course, the Kong Ming lantern with the signal is naturally specially made, and a few more have been added.

With the rise of Kong Ming lanterns, in the Chengxiang Hall in the palace, Yang Ying also noticed those special Kong Ming lanterns under the reminder of the palace people.

I saw that her expression changed color slightly, and then she broke everyone up and returned to the temple alone.

He found a box and took out a box of rouge and smeared it on the table.

Soon, a bird with a secret letter stopped on the table following the taste.

took down the bamboo tube on the bird's leg and took out the secret letter inside, which Yang Ying recognized at a glance

This is Ning Yuanzhou's handwriting.

Just looking at the question above, Yang Ying fell silent for a while.

After thinking about it for a while, Yang Ying picked up the pen and began to write a reply, then put it into a bamboo tube and let it go.

The bird flew out of the Chengxiang Hall and began to return the same way, but as soon as it reached the wall of the imperial city, it was knocked down by a stone sent out by someone.

With such a blatant display of lights, how could Li Hao not find out, and he was waiting on the city wall in a straight line near the Siyi Pavilion early in the morning.

Taking out the bamboo tube inside, Li Hao picked up the secret letter on it, and he was quite relieved to read it.

Because on this, Yang Ying described the content of the harmonious coexistence of the two countries, and as for the affairs of Yanguo, Yang Ying did not speculate at all.

Even in the end, Yang Ying took the initiative to reiterate her position, hoping that they would be able to say something in the future and not do such senseless things.

After showing the letter to Ren Xin, Ren Xin smiled and said, "Now you can rest assured, Yang Ying is still very measured."

But Li Hao still shook his head: "State affairs are different from private affairs, Yang Ying can stand firm in her position in the face of state affairs, which does not mean that she can be indifferent in the face of Ning Yuanzhou's grievances.

Besides, you also know that there will be a battle in Suwu in the future, and then she will face a more difficult choice.

So as long as you know her attitude, let's put an end to it."

Ren Xin agreed, "Okay, then I'll arrange for someone to find a way to make a few boxes of rouge that look the same to replace these on her hand.

In addition, her handwriting is not difficult to imitate, and when the secret letter comes, I will help her reply."

"You do it, I don't worry." After Li Hao finished laughing, he was put back by the secret letter.

Then use Yangzhou to wake up the unconscious bird and let it embark on the road back again.

Xiao Pu was nesting in a room with Ning Yuanzhou at this time, and when he saw the bird flying back, he rushed up with an arrow step, and directly held the bird in his hand, wanting to be the first to check the content of the secret letter.

As a result, when I saw this, I looked anxious: "It's really a girl who is outgoing, I didn't expect that our princess would forget her homeland completely when she got married, it's just ungrateful."

When Ning Yuanzhou heard this, his heart was full of disdain, after all, Yang Ying was in the Wuguo Palace before, and his life was not very good.

After that, the envoy was almost abandoned by Yang Xingyuan, where did he dare to use grace to oppress people.

It's just that on the face, Ning Yuanzhou didn't show it, but calmly asked Xiao Pu for a secret letter.

After reading it, Ning Yuanzhou said, "Actually, it's not without gains, at least the princess has explained that Emperor Su still has an attitude of getting along with me Dawu.

Now that the four countries are opposed, Yi'an and Su are the strongest, and Su needs us to maintain balance after all, and with the princess's words, this is even more proof."

Xiao Pu sneered when he heard this: "Lord Ning is content, but I am afraid that such a thing will not be able to deal with His Majesty.

So please write another handwritten letter to Lord Ning to persuade our Royal Highness the Princess?"

Ning Yuanzhou replied, "I'm afraid that it will take a few more days, after all, this method can't be used too much, otherwise it will be easily detected by others.

That will not only easily affect His Highness, but will also make Emperor Su resentful of me, and then the two of us will not be able to get out of it."

Xiao Pu was blocked by these words, and his tone softened, he was not worried about Yang Ying, but he was afraid that he would be punished.

"But how can we have time to wait, now that we have an errand, and the time to leave has been reported to the Suguo Honglu Temple, where can this be changed."

So Ning Yuanzhou thought for a while and said, "Then if I don't come back quietly after leaving the capital, anyway, the mission has Lord Xiao to take care of, and it will definitely not be discovered, right?"

Xiao Pu didn't want to agree to this, after all, he came over this time, and he also had a task to monitor Ning Yuanzhou, where was he willing to let him out of sight.

After all, Ning Yuanzhou has a lot of ideas, and Yang Xingyuan has been guarding against him while using him.

And Ning Yuanzhou saw that Xiao Pu was silent, and continued

continued, "Then why don't Lord Xiao stay and I will take the mission away?"

Xiao Pu smiled: "Forget it, let's do this first, anyway, now that this contact channel has been built, we will find a way later."

On this matter, the two agreed on this matter, and then led the mission out of the capital according to the original date.

Ren Xin's original preparations turned out to be empty, but fortunately, Li Hao and Ren Xin's patience is enough, and I believe that this thing will always be useful.

Now that Wuguo can't be persuaded here, it is not good for Li Hao to start a war lightly, lest he fall into the situation of fighting three at the same time.

After all, the current Su country borders all three countries at the same time, and this fight is easy to turn into a full-scale war, and even if it wins, the loss will not be small.

At this time, Li Hao could only find another opportunity, such as provoking Li Falcon to see if he could let him fight Wuguo.

In this way, he forced Wu Guo to the battlefield first, so he couldn't help but disagree.

It's just that it's hard to do this, and after Li Falcon has gone through so many things, his original violent temper has been forced to take a lot.

But since Li Falcon can't do it, is it possible to change the emperor, anyway, Li Falcon's two sons are not talented people, compared to Li Falcon, they are a lot worse.

In this matter, Li Hao found Ren Xin again, because Linlang was in the Jinyiwei branch of Andu at this time.
