Chapter 158: The Woman
Now Ji Zhengrong lives in the Dingwang Mansion, as if announcing to the outside world that he has successfully defected to the Dingwang.
All the officials in Kyoto are more or less inextricably linked, and the slightest disturbance can be noticed, from the moment Ji Zhengrong walked into the Dingwang Mansion, everyone's eyes were focused here.
The current court is changing, and no one knows what will happen in the next second, especially in the recent days, the emperor and the king have had differences in several major changes, and the court smells like gunpowder every day.
The prime minister represents the emperor's faction, and the high-ranking university prince Taifu has something to do with Chi Jingyu's side, and the two of them represent their own positions, and they always have to argue every morning.
Although this has been the case in the past, it has become different these days, because the recent topic has revolved around Nandan.
What is Nandan? Since ancient times, it has been a war-prone place, and the middle point between the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Western Jin Dynasty is a heart disease of the emperors of all dynasties.
Today's King Nandan is still the emperor's uncle according to his seniority, and the bones that the emperor can't eat, he naturally feels that it is difficult to bite.
Although there is still General Yan, but General Yan's duty is to protect the imperial city, if he brings his own troops to Nandan, the imperial city is almost defenseless.
As far as the eye can see, there is only one man in the entire Eastern Jin Dynasty who is suitable for going to Nandan.
That is Chi Jingyu, who has just returned to Kyoto for less than a year.
Chi Wenyuan summoned him back at that time for the military power in his hands, and now that the poison on Chi Jingyu's body has been completely unraveled, the scene is about to erupt, and it is not something he can control at all.
The troops couldn't be recovered, and Nandan began to move again, which can be said to have forced Chi Wenyuan into an embattled situation.
It was such a tense moment, and Ji Zhengrong, who was originally the only Nandan person in the court, directly dominated King Ding's mansion.
Ji Zhengrong, who is usually looked down upon, is now being pushed to the cusp of the seal, and some people even speculate that Ji Zhengrong has been traveling from Kyoto to Nandan for many years, but in fact, it is to inquire about the news for Chi Wenyuan.
Previously, Chi Wenyuan provoked him because of the Spring Banquet, but now he can only directly turn to the position, and share all the news he knows in Chi Wenyuan with Chi Jingyu.
If this is the case, then the position of the emperor may not be able to sit securely.
The person who was most angry about this matter was Chi Wenyuan.
He can't wait.
Ji Zhengrong, an old fritter, originally refused to tell him the news he wanted to know, and Chi Wenyuan just wanted to make him scared, force him, and let him feel the threat of the emperor.
But he didn't expect that the other party was still a wall grass, and he went to Chi Jingyu shamelessly.
Now Chi Wenyuan's biggest fear is that Chi Jingyu knows the secret, and what he is even more afraid of is that Chi Jingyu is interested in this matter and starts ahead of him.
Things are starting to get tense.
The Eastern Jin Dynasty, which had been stable for several years, once again entered a stage of dire straits.
And Ji Zhengrong himself only cares about his own life and death, and he doesn't think about things so deeply at all.
All he wants is glory and wealth, to be able to become a man with a head and face in Kyoto, what Chi Wenyuan promised to give him before was not given, and now he has no patience, it is better to mix with Chi Jingyu, maybe a god of war prince can give him more.
Not to mention that Ji Yuexi and him are still father and daughter, this can be described as a kiss and a kiss, he is now also the father-in-law of the God of War, and he doesn't have to worry about other people's eyes when he comes here for a long time.
The Ji Mansion is in tatters, and it can't live at all, on the contrary, in the Dingwang Mansion, not only can you eat and drink well, but you can also enjoy some excellent treatment, and the whole person's pace began to lighten.
Since they have all come in, it is inevitable to have a good relationship with the so-called Princess Ding.
Ji Zhengrong hadn't considered Ji Yuexi at all before, but now it's like having complete amnesia, dangling in front of Ji Yuexi every day, and actually showing the care of his father that he had never had before.
"You don't have to pretend to be a cat crying mouse fake mercy trick in front of me, now you can live in Dingwang's Mansion entirely because I want to know about my mother's death, if you say it, I can still save your life."
Ji Yuexi avoided the guests and said such a sentence to Ji Zhengrong at the door.
Next to her is Chi Jingyu.
Chi Jingyu told her before why she needed to know the secret of Ji Zhengrong's stomach so much.
It's about war.
The previous Great Jin Dynasty had not been divided into the East and the West, collectively known as the Great Jin, and Chi Jingyu's grandfather caused a war between the East and the West, which led to a later rupture.
Later generations of emperors have a new goal, that is, to combine the East and the West and restore the strength of the previous Jin Dynasty.
In recent years, the two places have been separated, and although the Western Jin Dynasty is short of materials, there are ores and gunpowder.
And although the Eastern Jin Dynasty has a lot of land and abundant resources, it is still a little difficult to fight hard in the war.
Even if the god of war is like Chi Jingyu, he does not have a 100% victory rate every time he goes out, but it is also because he has won many battles, recaptured several cities over the years, and has the current temporary peace.
Since it is a temporary peace, there will be a day when it will break.
I heard that the king of Nandan has already set up a good relationship with the Western Jin Dynasty, if he joins forces with the Western Jin Dynasty, the Western Jin Dynasty will attack the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and after the unification of the Great Jin Dynasty, Nandan will become independent and become a small country of its own.
This plan is the latest intelligence obtained by Chi Jingyu's secret agents, and there are frequent contacts there, maybe after the weather warms up, the war will start to break out.
After all, the Western Jin Dynasty was short of products, and Nandan could not provide the food of an entire country, so it was impossible to recruit troops and horses in a hurry, but there were already signs of imminent action.
And the secret that Ji Zhengrong knows is about the Nandan Li family.
The Li family is a family with a unique skill, that is, it can be the most delicate treasure in the world.
It can be as small as the girl's jewelry hairpin, and as large as the organ building.
The Li family's mechanism technique can be said to be the most powerful of all people at present, it can attack and defend, and it is the best to use it as a weapon.
is because he is too good, he is targeted, even if he acts in a low-key manner, he has many enemies in the rivers and lakes silently.
It was completely wiped out overnight, and the Li family's house was burned to the ground, and it is said that the whole family, including the remaining disciples, did not escape this catastrophe.
Since then, there is no longer the Li family on the rivers and lakes, and there is no longer this mechanism that can be manipulated.
Speaking of which, Ji Yuexi's brocade box is exquisite, and the mechanism inside should not be underestimated.
It just so happened that Li Qingqing's surname was Li.
All this is connected, and people have to suspect that Li Qingqing is a member of the Li family.
Regarding Li Qingqing, Ji Yuexi remembered the life experience of the original body, and for some reason felt a little melancholy in her heart, feeling that she had to participate in this matter.
The Li family, Li Qingqing, and even more about her own life experience, as well as this seemingly prosaic but strange thing, seem to have pushed her to an uncomfortable and suffocating top.
It seems that her coming to this time was not an accident, but a providence in the dark.
Now it's like being driven to the shelves.
Although she is not the original owner, if she is not sad about her life experience, she will definitely be discovered, and she will feel that she is not herself at all.
That's the case, I had to discuss it with Chi Jingyu, trying to pry out this secret from Ji Zhengrong's mouth.
The other party's scoundrel himself has seen it, and now he can only use strong methods to force him to spit out those unclean things.
For this, Ji Yuexi just developed a poison.
Not dead yet, but capable of giving people a rash all over their bodies, which is a derivative of the poison on her face.
Now he only needs to snub Ji Zhengrong for a few days, make him afraid, make him panic, and make him feel that this king doesn't care about him at all, and this secret is not important.
If he leaves the Dingwang Mansion, where can he still be a place to stay?
In this way, things are simple and straightforward.
It was definitely not for them to beg Ji Zhengrong, but for Ji Zhengrong to beg them to squeeze all the news in it, so that they really responded to the words that were innocent.
Since he has to be hung for a few days, Chi Jingyu will not show up on his side, and Chi Jingyu can't be found, Ji Zhengrong can only annoy her every day, making a pretense that the relationship between father and daughter is very good.
For Li Qingqing, even if she is not her biological mother, she must have feelings for growing up by her side for so many years.
What Ji Yuexi wants to know is the news from Li Qingqing's side.
It's just that Ji Zhengrong didn't want to say it at all, his face sank when he heard this, his language stopped, and finally he walked away.
Obviously, this secret didn't seem so easy for him to tell.
The more this happens, the more curious it becomes, and I always feel that there must be more secrets under this that people don't know, as long as they can get it.
It's like a barb, I didn't notice it, but it didn't hurt, but as it got into the flesh, it became more and more uncomfortable.
It's just that Ji Yuexi hasn't been uncomfortable for long, and there is new news on the other side.
The woman hiding in the Prime Minister's Mansion seemed to be about to make a move.
She is amazing, she is not idle at all over there, and it only took a few days to walk into Ji Ruochu's courtyard in a bright light.
I heard that it was an accident that caused Ji Ruochu to be hurt by the concubine in the side room, and she happened to have medical skills and saved the other party.
After the incident, Ji Ruochu really regarded her as his savior, and directly took the woman to his yard and got along all day long.
As everyone knows, this woman is her mother-killing enemy, and now the purpose of coming to the Prime Minister's Mansion is not so simple to save her.
Ji Ruochu and Ji Yuexi rarely communicate on weekdays, and now they can only wait and see what happens.
What exactly did she want?
Chi Jingyu couldn't guess, and Ji Yuexi could only watch from the sidelines.
But now Ji Zhengrong and that woman collided at the same time, I really feel that all of this is connected, and that thing may also be related to Nandan......
