Chapter 199: The Palace's Reaction
At the same time, in the Kunning Palace.
"Xiao Chen is really amazing."
The queen was reclining on the soft couch, and an unpredictable look flashed on her majestic and graceful face.
The female officer beside him said softly: "Lord Xiao's growth is indeed very fast, and it has only been a little more than a month, and he has already attracted a group of masters and severely defeated the siege of Zhou Tianfu's old dog...... Regardless of the past, Lord Xiao acted drastically in Jiangdong Province and other places, not only raiding all the major families, but also arresting Taijiang Rongfeng in Jiangdong Province! ”
The queen also raised her hand slightly, rubbed her temples, and said, "It can be seen that Xiao Chen is not only outstanding, but also has extraordinary courage...... It is no wonder that His Majesty promoted him to the overseer of Dongchang in the first place. ”
"He's the overseer, and he's really worthy of his name!"
The female officer smiled again and said, "It can only be said that Your Majesty has vision." ”
A smile flashed in the queen's eyes again: "But as far as I know, Your Majesty's opinion of him is still quite complicated...... On the one hand, they want to use him as a sword in their hands, and on the other hand, they want to prevent him from devouring the Lord. ”
When the female official heard this, a trace of surprise flashed on her face, and she asked thoughtfully: "Queen Mother, ...... are you?"
"Actually, you guessed it."
The queen's tone was casual, but with a kind of majesty: "This palace wants to draw him to her side...... This time, he copied His Majesty's heart, as long as he didn't go too far, he obediently gave most of the money...... His Majesty will not say that he will be promoted and knighted, but he will definitely reuse it. ”
"A superintendent of Dongchang who has real power and is deeply trusted by His Majesty, even if it is the main palace, he has to weigh it carefully."
The female officer flattered again: "What Niangniang said is extremely true! ”
"If you can succeed, you will be brought under the command of Governor Xiao, and your voice will become even greater."
The queen's eyes were slightly cold, but the corners of her mouth hooked a charming arc.
Concubine Jing Palace.
"Xiao Chen was assassinated?"
Concubine Jing was a little surprised in her tone, and hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" ”
The messenger was her liaison with Bai Zhi, a young female martial artist in her twenties who often traveled between the palace and the people.
The female martial artist's tone was a little calm: "This matter was also heard by the subordinates by chance, there are two theories in the court and in the harem, the court only said that Xiao Chen was assassinated, and did not explain the situation carefully, and the news from the palace was more detailed...... It is said that he was attacked by hundreds of martial arts masters, including three seventh-rank and twenty-four fifth-rank masters, as well as hundreds of martial arts masters! ”
Concubine Jing was a little worried in her eyes: "Did Xiao Chen have an accident?" ”
"Niangniang, don't be impatient."
The female martial artist said with a smile: "Lord Xiao is said to have recruited a lot of masters, and his own strength has improved, he is safe and sound, and he has also wiped out all the killers!" ”
"He's fine."
Concubine Jing's tone was soothing: "Presumably, he will also return to the capital soon." ”
When she said this, Concubine Jing stretched out her slender fingers, nodded her chin, and said with a bit of ridicule in her tone: "If he returns to the capital, the palace will have to discuss it with him." ”
"How to get ahead in the coming fall!"
The female martial artist nodded: "Lord Xiao uses miscanthus to make ice, so that Niangniang has benefited a lot, judging from the wisdom of Lord Xiao, even if it is autumn, there will definitely be a lot of clever ways to make money!" ”
"Mother, you definitely don't have to worry."
Concubine Jing hooked the corners of her mouth, and her tone was heavy and soft: "Now it's just a matter of waiting for him to return to the capital." ”
"By the way, you also have to help the palace pay attention to the news from Xiao Chen's side at any time, and if there is any change, it will be transmitted to the palace immediately!"
The female martial artist nodded quickly: "Yes." ”
In the palace where Zhao Jieyu is.
She also learned the news, but the person who sent her the message was her personal maid.
This is the henchman she brought out from the Zhao Mansion, and she is also the only servant girl in her palace who knows that she has a good relationship with Xiao Chen.
After Zhao Jieyu heard the news, she confirmed again: "Did Xiao Chen really escape from more than a hundred powerful killers?" And they all wiped them out! ”
"That's right!"
The little maid with a round face nodded: "The news from outside is like this, and everyone says so...... They also said that Lord Xiao had obtained a lot of treasures in the Dali Temple, and now he has become very strong, and a well-known master in the rivers and lakes, Qin Changfeng, the "Ten Thousand Swords", has also invested in his command and secretly protected him! ”
Zhao Jieyu was born in Jiangmen, so she naturally knows what the situation of the so-called Dali Temple is.
The holy land of Buddhism, which has also gathered countless masters.
There are really a lot of magical exercises.
Xiao Chen's movements in Dali Temple before, she was also very clear.
She couldn't help but hook the corners of her mouth: "Those thieves in Dali Temple are not a good thing, Xiao Chen, don't flatten them, I feel a little regretful...... However, it was a good thing that their treasure was given to Xiao Chen! ”
"It's just that who sent those more than 100 killers is a little worrying......
Although Zhao Jieyu knew who sent those people.
It's just that it's inconvenient for her to say.
After all, Zhao Jieyu is a person from the harem, and it is inconvenient to interfere in the affairs of the court.
The round-faced maid smiled again and said, "It is said that Lord Xiao has done other things!" He went to Jiangdong Province, which can be described as a big killing, not only to arrest Jiang Rongfeng, but also to copy all the major families in Jiangdong Province, and it is said that the gold and silver treasures copied out were filled with hundreds of large boxes. ”
When she said this, the round-faced maid stretched out her hand and made an exaggerated gesture in the air.
Zhao Jieyu couldn't help but smile, and said, "This is also quite normal...... The major families of Jiangdong Province have been dominant for a long time, and with these hundreds of years of accumulation, their wealth must be extraordinary...... Otherwise, how could Xiao Chen dispatch five hundred Xuanjia guards and ask to escort the convoy? ”
"But this time, he stabbed the hornet's nest! The major families of Jiangdong Province have also cultivated many officials in the court, and when he returns to the capital, I am afraid that he will be in trouble again......"
Speaking of this, there was a little more worry in her eyes.
Xiao Chen did his best to help him before, and even saved her from the fate of being killed, which can be said to be a grace for her......
However, he has been living in the palace, and there is no way to help Xiao Chen.
She had some decadence and chagrin.
Although the round-faced maid didn't know why Zhao Jieyu was worried, she still appeased: "Lord Xiao Ji has his own natural appearance, and there will definitely be no problems!" ”
"Don't worry, mother!"
"Of course, I'm sure he'll be safe."
Zhao Jieyu's brows stretched a little, but there was always a bit of gloom in her eyes.
