Chapter 422: Stepping on the Point in the Late Night
Several people were listening carefully, and then they answered:
"Where is King Rui?"
"In the palace! Three days later, the crown prince ascended the throne as emperor, and he presided over the overall situation in the palace for several days. ”
As soon as Zhou Zheng's words came out, several people looked at Xiling Yu beside them suspiciously.
Without the crown prince, how can the crown prince enthronement ceremony be held? Moreover, didn't Xiling Yu say that it was Prime Minister Li Cheng who wanted to manipulate him to ascend the throne, and his great emperor King Borui wanted to seek power and usurp the throne?
How could it be King Rui, presiding over the crown prince's enthronement ceremony in the palace?
Xiling Yu was also stunned, and was seen by several people, and he waved his hand hurriedly.
"I, I don't know anything. When I came out, they were still arguing and inconclusive. I didn't hide it. ”
Several people retracted their gaze and looked at Zhou Zheng again. Chu Yunxi asked:
"Do you know that the crown prince of Xizhao Kingdom is not in the palace?"
Zhou Zheng frowned slightly.
"A few days ago, there were rumors that the little prince was missing, but later he said that he had found someone."
Bai Xiao had a flash of inspiration, and remembered the stand-in that Jun Lingyun had prepared when he left Beijing.
"Could it be that King Narui has prepared a fake prince?"
If they can think of using a stand-in, why can't others? A few people nodded, which made sense.
Zhou Zheng didn't know what they were going to do, but based on the things they inquired about, he also knew that their trip was not easy.
"Young master, if you need our help, you can always ask."
"Okay, thank you."
Chu Yunxi thanked him politely, and Zhou Zheng retreated with his fists in his hands and went to arrange food for them.
Jun Lingyun and Bai Xiao began to discuss tonight's actions.
Chu Yunxi only then had time to care about the girl they rescued.
"What's your name?"
"Mrs. Hui, the slave and maid are called many children. I'm eight years old. ”
Listening to her respectful words "Mrs. Hui", Si Qi pursed her lips and smiled, not knowing how she would feel when she found out that she recognized a queen mother as her master.
Chu Yunxi was tasting her name, many times, her ruthless father and mother, whether she thought she was redundant, or wanted to have more sons, so she gave her such a name.
"I'll give you two options. First, follow me, sign the deed of sale, and when you are ready, I will let you go out and marry. Second, I will send you to study at the academy, and in the future, you will be responsible for your own life. ”
"The slave is willing to sign the deed of sale and follow the lady."
Many children didn't think about it, so they chose the first path. She hadn't read since she was a child, and she didn't know what life was.
She only knew that the young lady in front of her, who saved her life, was a good person. With Madame, life will never be too bad.
Chu Yunxi nodded, not everyone is suitable for their own adventure.
She glanced at Si Qi, Si Qi understood, so she went into the house to find pen and ink, wrote down the deed of sale, and asked many children to draw a pledge.
It's not that Chu Yunxi is ruthless, it's just that the heart of guarding against people is indispensable, even if there are many people who seem harmless to humans and animals now, she doesn't want to leave a hidden danger around.
Wait for many children without hesitation, press down their handprints. Chu Yunxi asked:
"How about I give you another name?"
Many children have heard that the big families recruit maids, and they are all given names by the lady and the young lady, so they quickly nodded.
"Yes, ma'am."
Chu Yunxi thought for a moment.
"Then I will call you, the first song, may you say goodbye to the past, like the first life, and from now on life will be like a song."
The girl listened to Chu Yunxi's interpretation of her name, and her heart was happy.
"The first song is given by Mrs. Xie."
She had just knelt halfway before Chu Yunxi reached out and helped her up.
"You don't have to kneel at every turn, I don't like that."
Chu Ge wiped his tears gratefully, and followed Si Qi to prepare tea.
After dinner, the sky was dark, Jun Lingyun, Bai Xiao, Wu Wei and Wu Wei changed their night clothes.
In the palace of the Western Zhao Kingdom, is there any fake Xiling Yu, and what is the depth of those four people, they have to find out in person.
"Be careful."
Chu Yunxi's concern and worry are all in these two words. Jun Lingyun nodded, signaling her to feel at ease, and a few people disappeared into the night.
After Chu Yunxi washed, he lay on the bed alone, completely sleepy, Jun Lingyun and the others were going to explore tonight, but they were all the mansions of the rulers of the Xizhao Kingdom, where did it seem so simple on the surface.
Among them, it is dangerous, but Jun Lingyun doesn't say it.
It wasn't until the second half of the night that Chu Yunxi heard the sound of the door slowly opening. Jun Lingyun had already changed his clothes, walked lightly, and walked to the bed, only to see Chu Yunxi open a pair of bright eyes.
"Did I disturb you?"
He asked, stripping off his coat and squeezing into the covers.
"I'm worried about you, I can't sleep."
Chu Yunxi said bluntly. Warmth flowed through Jun Lingyun's heart, and he took her into his arms and pillowed his arm.
"Youxi'er is waiting for me to come back, how dare I have something?"
Chu Yunxi was amused by his words and raised his eyes to look at him.
"Is it going well? Is there really a Xiling Yu in the palace? ”
Jun Lingyun responded.
"The situation is similar to what Zhou Zheng said, and there is indeed a prince in the palace who looks the same as Xiling Yu. If it weren't for the prince seal in Xiling Yu's hand, I would have to wonder which one was fake. ”
Chu Yunxi also sighed in his heart, the art of disguise is not easy, there are not many people who know it, but I didn't expect that there are also people in Xizhao Kingdom who understand this technique.
"And what are you going to do?"
Jun Lingyun looked at Chu Yunxi's expression and curled the corners of his lips. Instead of sorrow, her eyes radiated a light of calculation.
"Xi'er has an idea?"
Chu Yunxi was not hypocritical, and said what he thought in his heart.
"Since Xiling Yu's Great Emperor Borui King is the most difficult one to deal with, it is better to unite with the other three parties and send him away first. Among the other three parties, Prime Minister Li Cheng is the weakest, and he can lobby him, pretend to support, and encroach one by one. ”
Jun Lingyun's smile widened, "cannibalize one by one", and Xi'er's words were the same as what he said.
"Xi'er is not only my treasure trove, but also my military advisor."
Chu Yunxi didn't believe it, Jun Lingyun would have no idea in her heart, but she was still very happy when he praised her. Then he drilled into Jun Lingyun's arms again. provoked Jun Lingyun to be full of tenderness and hugged her tighter.
"Xi'er, get some sleep, it'll be dawn soon."
As soon as his words fell, he had already heard Chu Yunxi's shallow breathing, and the corners of his mouth that had just relaxed were bent back again.
When Chu Yunxi opened his eyes again, the sky was already bright, and Jun Lingyun was no longer around.
Prime Minister's Office.
Prime Minister Li looked at the front of him, and he didn't know when Jun Lingyun and Bai Xiao in his house appeared, and he was shocked, the sky was blue and the sun was white, and his guards were all dead?
He secretly moved a few steps to the window, and was about to call someone, when he was caught by the white owl's sword against his neck. He didn't dare to move again, but only dared to ask in a low voice:
"Who are you? What do you want to do? ”
Jun Lingyun sat down at the table. looked at Prime Minister Li Cheng, who was forced to be calm.
"Prime Minister Li Cheng is not afraid, I am not here to harm you, I am here to help you achieve your wishes."
I? Li Chengxiang listened to this self-title, and his heart jumped suddenly. The emperor of their Western Zhao Kingdom died not long ago, where did I come from? Still so young?
The white owl was there to explain his doubts.
"This is the new emperor of our Cloud Heaven Kingdom!"
