Chapter Seventy-Three: Leaving the Imperial Capital
In the blink of an eye, it was already afternoon, and there was no news from Zhou Li's side, and the black prison was not dispatched, so everyone secretly thought, could it be that they guessed wrong?
Of course, the thought only crossed their minds for a moment, and they knew that it was just a quiet moment before the storm!
Since the emperor is silent like that, it means that he has made up his mind, although for some reason the emperor did not cut through the mess quickly, but they know that His Majesty the emperor will not stop there!
Maybe this Emperor is waiting for something......
When the people in the imperial capital were restless, Ying Kongchen also came to the palace again, and he was accompanied by Jian Mingyue.
In addition to Zhao Ling, there are two people behind him, one has a resolute complexion, giving people a solemn feeling, and the other has a long and deep scar on his face, which makes people shudder.
Ying Kongchen knew that among these two people, one of them was an imperial envoy, and the other was a cuiting guard, but judging from his face, the person with a resolute face should be the imperial envoy, after all, the other person with such a long scar on his face didn't look like an imperial envoy.
What Ying Kongchen didn't notice was that when Jian Mingyue saw Wang Zhao with a long scar on his face, he sighed in his heart, how could he ...... It's him?
Ying Kongchen didn't know Wang Zhao, but Jian Mingyue was very familiar, a genius boy back then, and then gave up the Wang family out of love and broke with the Wang family.
still remembers that when the prince and the queen got married, it was this eldest brother who blocked the door and almost didn't beat the prince.
It's just that since Wang Zhao was adopted by the royal family, there has been no news, and thinking about the conversation with Ying Kongchen at noon today, Jian Mingyue couldn't help but sigh, it turned out to be a guard for Cuiting.
It's hard to imagine that a genius of the military family, the former young master of the Wang family, is really willing to become a guard!
Even if it is to be a guard for the emperor, it is an insult to a genius!
Jian Mingyue also knew the meaning of Ying Kongli, and asked Wang Zhao to protect Ying Kongchen, who was related by blood, and would definitely be much better than those who didn't know him.
Ying Kongli looked at Ying Kongchen, pointed to the two people behind him, and said with a smile: "Xiao Chen, these two are called Chen Jiaguan and Wang Zhao respectively, Chen Jiaguan is the imperial envoy this time, and Wang Zhao is my Cuiting guard, responsible for protecting the imperial envoy and protecting you." β
Ying Kongchen nodded, but looked at Wang Zhao's eyes with some curiosity, there was nothing wrong with the imperial envoy's gaze, but why did Wang Zhao's eyes look at him with a kind of gentleness?
Ying Kongchen shook his head, he must have felt wrong, the deep scar on Wang Zhao's face has already shown that Wang Zhao is not easy to get along with, and he will look at himself gently?
And what Ying Kongchen didn't know was that Wang Zhao was indeed looking at him gently at this moment, if there was a master of the Xuandao Realm here, he would definitely be able to see it, the corners of Wang Zhao's mouth kept muttering: "It's really like......"
Wang Zhao's eyes were a little excited, no one knew how eager his heart was at the moment, although he said that he had cut off contact with the Wang family, but how could he let go of the Wang family so easily in his heart.
Especially his sister, everyone who is an elder brother has an inexplicable desire to protect his sister, so, from childhood to adulthood, he has always protected his sister strictly, better than his father.
However, that year, when he heard that a gentleman was going to marry his sister, Wang Zhao was angry, unprecedentedly angry, his sister was very smart, how could she marry this kind of person.
Especially Ying Yuanming also went directly to the door to rob people, which made Wang Zhao even more angry, so when Ying Yuanming came to the door to propose, Wang Zhao was so angry that he almost beat Ying Yuanming, but fortunately, Jian Mingyue's strength at that time was not bad, and Wang Zhao was stopped.
If it weren't for Jian Mingyue to stop him, Wang Zhao would really have beaten Ying Yuanming.
Thinking about it now, Wang Zhao felt that he was too stupid and naΓ―ve at that time, and at that time he thought that Ying Yuanming would definitely not be good to his sister, after all, Ying Yuanming's reputation was there, how could a gentleman be worthy of his baby sister in his eyes?
But only now, Wang Zhao understands that all of Ying Yuanming's deceitful behaviors are also for self-preservation, and he also realizes that officialdom is sinister and people's hearts are complicated.
And after Ying Yuanming married his sister, he did not have the image of abandoning his wife and children as he imagined, but took care of his sister meticulously and became the queen.
This made Wang Zhao see a different Ying Yuanming, and also made Wang Zhao feel a little guilty, he obstructed Ying Yuanming's marriage in every way, and even beat him, but as a guard of Cuiting, he couldn't see Ying Yuanming on weekdays, and gradually, he could only transfer his guilt and love for his sister to Ying Yuanming and his sister's son Ying Kongchen.
In the years when Ying Kongchen was a proton, although he couldn't show his face, he still secretly followed Ying Kongchen and was unwilling to give up any news about Ying Kongchen.
Secretly observing and protecting Ying Kongchen, every time Ying Kongchen came to the imperial capital, he would watch quietly in secret, and he couldn't come out to see him.
He is naturally very clear about Win Kongli's thoughts this time, so Wang Zhao is a little grateful to Win Kongli, he knows that this is the only opportunity for him to contact Win Kongchen openly.
Therefore, after hearing Ying Kongli's request, Wang Zhao immediately agreed, how could Wang Zhao not know that this was Ying Kongli creating an opportunity for him.
And Chen Jiaguan on the side, his face was calm, obviously, he was not a simple character, Ying Kongchen glanced at Chen Jiaguan, Chen Jiaguan smiled and nodded at him, for some reason, at this moment, Ying Kongchen actually had a feeling of being targeted by a poisonous snake.
Ying Kongli received the change in the demeanor of the four people, and then said: "This time to Shuzhou, let the four of you go together, Chen Jiaguan and Wang Zhao are responsible for the issuance of the imperial envoy's order." Xiao Chen, you just play casually, there are some things that don't need to be too deliberate to find. Soon you will know what I have worked hard for. β
There are obviously other meanings in Ying Kongli's words, and Ying Kongchen naturally heard it, but Ying Kongchen doesn't know what Ying Kongli means, just play?
In Ying Kongchen's view, since Ying Kongli is sure to move Li Zhe down, it means that Ying Kongli has already made arrangements in Shuzhou, but the implication of Ying Kongli's words is to let Ying Kongchen find it by himself and find it by himself.
This...... Isn't it embarrassing?
Ying Kongchen was a little helpless, but there were still Chen Jiaguan and Jian Mingyue, Wang Zhao and the three of them were here, and Ying Kongchen had no way to ask, so he had to nod his head and say yes.
Then, Ying Kongli said to Chen Jiaguan: "Chen Jiaguan, this time to Shuzhou, your task is to convey the imperial decree in a stable manner, if there is anyone who obstructs it, report it back, and I will not spare it!"
Chen Jiaguan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty issued the emperor's order, and the people of the world will definitely follow it, and those who obstruct it are just asking for their own death!"
Ying Kongli waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't bring me these high hats, as long as I see the results, do you understand?"
Chen Jiaguan's face changed, and he hurriedly said: "It's a minister!"
Immediately afterwards, Ying Kongli looked at Wang Zhao again and said, "Uncle Zhao, I have also told you about your task, no matter what, Uncle Zhao, you must know that your task is the most important!"
Wang Zhao's face was cold, and he said: "Your Majesty, the minister knows, and the minister will live up to Your Majesty's love and complete the task perfectly." β
Listening to the conversation between the two, Ying Kongchen, who was standing next to him, Jian Mingyue and Chen Jiaguan were all at a loss, what did Your Majesty and Wang Zhao say?
However, looking at the meaning of winning and emptying, I don't want them to know, otherwise, I would have announced it directly and honestly, where would I still use it to play dumb riddles with Wang Zhao here.
Ying Kongchen looked at Wang Zhao with interest, not because Ying Kong Li didn't tell Wang Zhao's task, but because Ying Kong Li called Wang Zhao, Uncle Zhao, an emperor's name for Wang Zhao!
What a great honor this is, then the question is, who is Wang Zhao? He actually assumed such a big title of his imperial brother!
Win Kongchen knows that for their royal family, especially the Zhenbei Wang and the Emperor, Uncle is not screaming, under normal circumstances, even the ancestors of the princes and nobles in this imperial capital have to salute them when they see them, this is the rule of Daqin, and it is also to show the noble status of the Daqin royal family in Daqin!
However, there are always some people who have spent their lives for the empire, and finally returned to the imperial capital to return to their hometowns, or after those founding ministers, only these people can afford to be uncles of their royal family.
Of course, these are just ordinary royal families, if it is the emperor and the king of Zhenbei, then the requirements are even more, if you want the emperor and the king of Zhenbei to call uncle, then you have to let the empire recognize, let the emperor or the king of Zhenbei approve, this is possible.
And this Wang Zhao, Ying Kongchen dares to guarantee that he has never heard this name, and it is the first time he has heard it, but the question is, what kind of virtue does Wang Zhao have, how can he make the emperor win Kong and call him uncle?
Ying Kongchen knows that his imperial brother has always been arrogant, let him call him uncle, unless it really touches him, otherwise, even if the founding minister comes here later, he still has to salute his imperial brother.
And Jian Mingyue looked at Wang Zhao deeply, he was really a genius, he was in the Xuan Dao realm, this was still after being abolished and cultivated once, this kind of talent was simply appalling!
However, Jian Mingyue was also a little puzzled, the emperor actually gave Wang Zhao a task, what task?
However, thinking that Wang Zhao wanted to protect Ying Kongchen, Jian Mingyue's eyes had a hint of gloom, if Wang Zhao wanted to protect Ying Kongchen, then he would definitely let Wang Zhao know if he left Ying Kongchen.
But I figured it out in a blink of an eye, I didn't think about hiding this matter from anyone, it was good for the emperor to know about it, this was supposed to be something that the whole world would know.
While speaking, Wang Zhao and Jian Mingyue glanced at each other, Jian Mingyue was a little helpless, he actually saw a few traces of war intent in Wang Zhao's eyes, Jian Mingyue was a little speechless in his heart, sure enough, just like back then, the same kind of martial arts idiot, has not changed, at this point in time, he can think of fighting, and there is no one.
And when Wang Zhao saw Jian Mingyue, his heart did ignite a few traces of war intent, after all, Jian Mingyue was also a person who could compete with him in martial arts, so Wang Zhao was also very "concerned" about Jian Mingyue over the years!
Ying Kongli saw Wang Zhao's eyes, followed Wang Zhao's eyes, and then looked at Jian Mingyue playfully, and didn't say anything, Jian Mingyue, the guard of the Zhenbei Palace, this is Jian Mingyue's identity on the bright side.
However, Ying Kongli is not a fool, back then, there was a stir about a traitor in the Heavenly Sword Sect defecting from the sect, and Kyushu was shaken, and the black prison followed the genius disciple to Liaozhou, and wrote down the address and identity characteristics.
Therefore, the true identity of Jian Mingyue is not only known to Zhenbei Wang Ying Yuanming, but also to Ying Kongli.
And the purpose of Jian Mingyue's trip to Shuzhou this time, he can naturally guess a little bit, Ying Kongli did not make a hindrance from it, for Ying Kongli, Jian Mingyue went to the Heavenly Sword Sect is not a good thing for the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Just as Jian Mingyue thought in his heart, and Ying Kongli also thought like that, the Heavenly Sword Sect would not believe in Jian Mingyue, there is no why, this is human nature!
Several people looked at each other in the middle, the scene was a little awkward, and Ying Kongchen came out and said, "Your Majesty, when are we leaving?"
Ying Kongli smiled and said: "Hahaha, this time, in order to let you go smoothly, I have taken out all the special black-winged eagles of the Great Qin Imperial Family, but now I am still recuperating, just wait." β
Hearing what Ying Kongli said, several people were shocked in their hearts, the black wing eagle for the royal family, this is not something that ordinary black wing eagles can compare.
You must know that the black wing eagles for the royal family have been trained by those professionals, not only that, but the food of these black wing eagles is much better, speaking of which, some people are not as good as the black wing eagles for the royal family.
Therefore, the staying power of the royal family's exclusive black wing eagle is not nonsense, it is twice as good as the ordinary black wing eagle, but this is in the second emperor, those people in the royal family played and trained, so these black wing eagles have become the black wing eagles for the royal family, and others can watch from a distance and cannot sit.
Unexpectedly, Ying Kongli actually took out all the black wing eagles dedicated to the royal family, which shows that Ying Kongli is very attentive to this mission in Shuzhou and attaches great importance to it.
couldn't help but win Kongchen, Chen Jiaguan, and Wang Zhao all sighed in their hearts, this mission must be done well, otherwise, who knows what this young emperor will do?
Ying Kongli looked at everyone's faces and knew what they were thinking, but he didn't pierce it, that's fine, maybe this will allow them to complete the task well, but the most important task, thinking, Ying Kongli glanced at Wang Zhao.
Wang Zhao saw Ying Kongli's eyes and nodded without a trace.
Only then did he relax his mind.
Several people stood in the middle of the field like this, and suddenly, an eagle whistle came, and then a black-winged eagle with a yellow logo flew in front of everyone, which was the black-winged eagle for the royal family that Yingkong Li said in his mouth.
The Blackwing Eagle flew in front of everyone, looked at everyone, and said, "No matter if you can do this mission well or not, I hope you can come back completely!"
Hearing this, everyone nodded, but their hearts were full of vigilance, and it was obvious that they couldn't believe it, and what task could not be done.
The implication of winning the empty is obvious, the task must be done well, even if you have no life, you must complete the task for me.
And it was also because of Ying Kongli's words that they couldn't help but feel a little worried in their hearts, that is, from Ying Kongli's words, they heard the smell of danger, and even the danger was not small, however, they had no right to regret it.
The matter has come to this point, and the implication of winning the empty leave has also been made clear, whether you can come back alive or not, you must complete the task.
They know that these are helpless, they know better than anyone that going to Shuzhou must be full of dangers, all they can do is to wait and see what happens, and try not to take the lead in Shuzhou.
After everyone said goodbye to Ying Kong, they sat on the Black Wing Eagle, but when Ying Kongchen was on the Black Wing Eagle, he took a deep look at Ying Kongli, and Ying Kongli did not dodge, at that moment, Ying Kongchen actually had a feeling that Ying Kongli was really treating him.
Of course, this is just a momentary feeling, after sitting on top of the Black Wing Eagle, Ying Kongchen stabilized himself, and the conversation with Jian Mingyue that day was deeply seared in his mind, he was no longer the simple him of those years, he knew, he was not qualified to say the word sincerity, and his imperial brother, the emperor of the Great Qin Empire, Ying Kongli, was even more disqualified.
Since they want power, then, the word sincerity, must stay away from them!
Ying Kongchen stabilized his mind for a while, and when he opened his eyes, he was already in the air, and he knew that the Black Wing Eagle had taken off.
And on the ground, Ying Kongli looked at the black-winged eagle that gradually turned into black spots in the sky and disappeared from sight, sighed deeply, and then asked Zhao Ling: "Zhao Ling, you say, will they go well?"
Zhao Ling's heart tightened, and he hurriedly said: "The task assigned by His Majesty, presumably they will definitely work hard to complete it and do it perfectly!"
Ying Kongli looked at Zhao Ling, shook his head, and said with a smile: "Zhao Ling." You're getting more and more slippery, and you really don't let me catch any loopholes. β
As soon as he heard this, Zhao Ling knew that Ying Kongli was joking, but he still said: "Why did Your Majesty say this, if Your Majesty really wants to catch the loophole, how can the minister not be caught, it must be Your Majesty's subordinates who show mercy." β
Ying Kongli looked at Zhao Ling and laughed without saying anything. Just squinting at the black-winged eagle that had gradually disappeared from view, the meaning in his eyes was inexplicable.
