Chapter 130: An Anecdote

Throwing down the piece of music that he was looking at in his hand, Emperor Hao Xingxiao pinched his painful eyebrows with his fingers, and Zheng Yong on the side hurriedly handed over a cup of hot tea. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Taking the tea and taking a sip, Haoxing Xiaoqi squinted his eyes and pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Zheng Yong, don't you think that the recent cabinet has presented a lot less concerts than before?"

Zheng Yong blinked his small eyes and pondered for a moment, and replied: "Your Majesty said this, the old slave really remembered it, in the past, there were two people in the cabinet who came to send the concerto, but now there is only one person, all because the number of this concerto has decreased." ”

Haoxing Xiaoqi put down the tea cup in his hand, frowned and asked, "What do you think could be the reason?"

The old slave thought that this should be because the war with Beirong had ceased, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, the place was peaceful, the government was smooth, and the courtiers had nothing to do. As soon as Zheng Yong opened his mouth, it was all those flattering words that he had long been accustomed to.

Haoxing Xiaoqi was not persuaded by the old eunuch's compliments, shook his head and said: "No matter how little it is, it shouldn't be less than half! You send someone to the cabinet to inquire about it, see what is going on, and then go back and forth quickly!"

"Yes, the old slave will do it!" Zheng Yong hurriedly retreated.

After a long time, Haoxing Xiaoqi had finished approving the remaining pieces of the case, and Zheng Yong trotted back again.

Haoxing Xiaoqi saw that the expression on his face was a little strange, and asked unconsciously, "What's wrong?"

Zheng Yong didn't seem to have completely sorted out his thoughts, and stood there with blinking eyes for a moment before he remembered to answer the emperor's question: "Back to Your Majesty, nothing big happened, but the old slave just got a news that Yan Shizi of the Xiangguo Marquis Mansion was acquitted today." ”

Haoxing Xiaoqi gave him a strange look, "What kind of news is this! Didn't I ask Jingzhao Mansion to release people?"

"It's the old slave who is confused! The words are not clear!" Zheng Yong said again and again, "What the old slave wants to report to His Majesty is that as soon as this Yan Shizi was released from Jingzhao Mansion, something happened again!"

"Oh?" Although Haoxing Xiaoqi was still not very interested, he saw that Zheng Yong's attitude seemed to be a little unusual, so he listened patiently to him.

"Early this morning, Jingzhao Mansion closed the case of Yan Shizi, and Yan Shizi was found not guilty and acquitted on the spot. Who knew that this Yan Shizi had just left the gate of Jingzhao Mansion, and happened to meet Miss Sun Xia Huan'er of Jingguo Mansion, but he was stopped by this Miss Sun, and the two sides quarreled. What was even more unexpected was that Yan Shizi was beaten by this Xia Huan'er again, and in the end, she was forced to pay a large amount of money, so it was over!"

At this time, even Haoxing Xiaoqi was interested, and asked, "How old is this Xia Huan'er? Why is a dignified Miss Sun from the Imperial Mansion able to hurt people? And that Yan Xingbao can't even beat a little girl?"

Zheng Yong saw that the emperor was interested, and hurriedly explained the news he heard in more detail: "This Xia Huan'er should not be in the age of the Jiaxuan, and it is said that she knows some martial arts, but her skills must be no match for those guards in the Marquis of Xiangguo's mansion." I heard that after she and Yan Shizi got started, the guards in the Xiangguo Marquis's Mansion were going to step forward to stop them, but they didn't expect the passers-by who were watching the excitement on the side to stop doing it, and they stepped forward to entangle with those guards, and as a result, Yan Shizi, who had no one to protect, was violently beaten by Xia Huan'er. ”

"In this way, this Xia Huan'er is still a heroine among women! It's just that what is she doing in Jingzhao Mansion, and why is she beating Yan Xingbao?"

"The old slave also just heard that there was a murder in a theater two days ago, and the deceased was a female guard of the Jingguo Mansion, when she was accompanying Miss Sun Xia Huan'er to listen to the play in the garden, but somehow died there. After receiving the report, Jingzhao Mansion summoned Xia Huan'er for questioning.

As for why Xia Huan'er beat Yan Shizi, I heard that the reason was also to listen to the play. This Xia Huan'er was obsessed with a female singer's singing, and later the female singer was insulted by Yan Shizi and fell off the building and was injured. Therefore, as soon as Xia Huan'er saw Yan Shizi, she wanted to seek justice from him for the injured woman. ”

"Injured female singer?" Haoxing Xiaoqi couldn't help frowning, and suddenly remembered, "You say, this injured female singer and the female actress who had a conflict with Yan Xingbao last time, could it be the same person?"

Zheng Yong was stunned for a moment, clapped his hands and said: "That's right! It should be the same person! I didn't expect such a lowly female girl to let three sons and young ladies from a family quarrel for her!"

Haoxing Xiaoqi snorted disappreciatively, "This matter will never be so simple! For the sake of a little girl, it is not uncommon for two gentlemen to fight, but if you want a Miss Sun from the Guogong Mansion to stand up for her, I'm afraid something is not right! Zheng Yong, you send someone to investigate, what is strange in this?"

"Yes. Although Zheng Yong responded verbally, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, why would the emperor take such a trivial matter to heart? The reason why he mentioned this matter to the emperor was just because he felt that Yan Shizi was unlucky, and he was really funny and pitiful, and he wanted the emperor to listen to it as an interesting anecdote.

But later, when the news came back one by one, Zheng Yong had to admire the emperor's holy wisdom, it turned out that there was really such a big mystery in this whole thing!

After listening to Zheng Yong talk about how Han Bing and those young people conspired against Yan Xingbao in the Yuanfang Pavilion, Haoxing Xiaoqi felt a little funny at first, but after laughing, his face gradually became gloomy, and he asked Zheng Yong slowly: "So, that Xia Huan'er didn't know that there was an assassin by his side?"

Zheng Yong shook his head and said, "I don't know." I think she didn't care too much about the assassin, so the person died next to her, she didn't even realize it, and ran away with the killing Han Bing to drink in a place like Yuanfang Pavilion. Such a young lady from a family is really rare!"

Haoxing Xiaoqi was silent and did not speak, and asked again after a while: "Then you say, who sent the assassin who died in the Zheng Family Theater?"

Zheng Yong pondered: "According to Duan Puqing, that assassin should have wanted to assassinate Han Bing, but Han Bing borrowed the secret weapon she sent and shot him instead. Since Xia Huan'er didn't know the origin of the assassin, presumably the people in the Guogong Mansion didn't know about it, otherwise, with the old man Xia's love for this granddaughter, how could he put such a dangerous figure by her side? If it wasn't for the Jingguo Mansion, then if it was not for the Jingguo Mansion, then if you want to kill Han Bing and can afford to hire such a powerful assassin, except for the Yan family, I am afraid that there will be no one else. ”

"Yan Yuguang has long been frightened, he won't dare to do such a thing that doesn't outweigh the losses again!, so who else in the Yan family will want to kill that cold ice so much?"

Zheng Yong's small eyes blinked a few times, and he said authentically: "This Yan family ...... Even...... Even...... There are really not a few...... ...... with this guts"

Haoxing Xiaoqi snorted coldly, knowing that Zheng Yong, a minion, didn't dare to say it, so he said it himself: "I'm afraid there is only one person who has the courage to do this, and that is the King of Ji!"

"His Royal Highness King Ji—" Zheng Yong hesitated for a moment before asking, "Why does he have to get along with that cold ice?"

"Naturally, it is for the sake of Zuo Xiang's cold clothes! King Ji must have noticed that I was suspicious of him, especially as soon as the news of the prince came out, he knew that he had no relationship with the storage position, and he must have started to think about other things. ”

"But His Royal Highness King Ji never said that he would help him at the beginning, if he killed his son again, wouldn't he have formed an insoluble grudge from now on?"

"What do you know! King Ji should have never been dead to Leng Yiqing, and he may have mistakenly thought that Han Bing was the eyes and ears I sent, and not Leng Yiqing's real son!"

Zheng Yong pretended to have a sudden realization at this time, and said: "Your Majesty, Shengming! The reason why His Royal Highness King Ji wants to get rid of the cold ice is that he is afraid that His Majesty will use him to control Zuo Xiang. ”

Haoxing Xiaoqi shook his head and said, "No, what King Ji is afraid of is not me, but that cold ice!"
