A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City - Chapter 87

Yun Yanze knew in his heart that these twists and turns of the conspiracy in the harem, even if the “true murderer” is found, they are not necessarily the real masters behind the scenes.

He knew it, Queen Su knew it, even Yun Duqing might know it.

Now he was declared here by Empress Su, it was Empress Su who was showing his attitude. She did not doubt him, and at the same time asked him to show sincerity.

“Behind the scenes, the master made his heart cruel and disturbed the peace of the harem. The crime is unforgivable. The child minister asked the father and the queen to investigate this matter thoroughly.” He stood up and saluted: “Please make the father and the queen complete.”

“How can you worry about these bad things.” Su Hou smiled: “Let the palace or the dragon guard check it out.”

If things in the palace weren’t too ugly, they wouldn’t let the officials in the court intervene.

“It is a blessing for the children to share the worries for the father and the queen.”

“Then this matter is left to you.” Emperor Longfeng said: “The queen is tired, you all retreat.”

This “you” does not seem to include Chen Wang and his wife.

Sun Caiyao stood up: “Daughter-in-law retire.”

When she walked to the door, she turned her head and glanced at Ming Jiuzhu. The other party was playing with the doll in the tray. The nonchalant expression made her back chill.

“Cai Yao, be careful of the steps.” Yun Yanze supported her arm: “Pay attention to your feet, don’t fall.”

“His Royal Highness.” Sun Caiyao recovered and smiled sweetly at Yun Yanze.

“Some people have a good skin.” Zhang Yan didn’t dare to offend King Chen, but he ridiculed Yun Yanze without any scruples: “Someone was scratched with a knife by an assassin. It was even lighter than a cat’s scratch. For a long time, the assassins were not caught, but many princes and princes were involved.”

“Could it be…” Zhang Yan mocked: “The thief shouts to catch the thief?”

Sun Caiyao couldn’t help but want to reply, Yun Yanze held her hand, not letting her speak.

“Manny Zhang.” Yun Yanze asked with a smile, “I was assassinated at Princess Roude’s house of marrying horses. This person bought an official and sold a knight, but also hid the assassin. So bold and reckless, I don’t know who is fighting?”

“Princess? Princess? Or a certain lady in the palace?”

“It’s not clear who is fighting. But if the fourth prince doubts who, it’s better to show the evidence first.” Yun Yanze hadn’t lost his knighthood, if he said such a few words, Zhang Yan would have been scared. Don’t dare to say much.

However, this time is different. Zhang Yu is well versed in the way the harem bullies the soft and fears the hard, and immediately retorted: “The palace still suspects that it may be a bitter prince who framed this palace.”

Yun Yanze’s bad luck seemed to have started after he was assassinated.

In detail, the person who hates her and Princess Chen the most is really Yun Yanze.

“Who knows that some people will automatically ask to investigate the behind-the-scenes leader, whether they really want to help investigate the case or to cover up the evidence.”

“Manny Zhang, you can eat whatever you want, but you can’t talk nonsense.” Sun Caiyao couldn’t bear it. “If you have suspicions, you can go directly behind the father and the queen and say it, you don’t need to be in front of us.”

“Presumptuous, although the position in this palace is not too high, it can be regarded as the master of the first house. In front of you, you can also call yourself the elders. As juniors and daughters of the Sun family, don’t you know how to respect the elders? The rules?” Zhang Yan glanced at her coldly: “If you don’t have a mother-in-law to teach you the rules, my palace would be willing to teach you.”

Sun Caiyao paled, and took two deep breaths: “Manny Zhang Bie gave me a lesson.”

Her Royal Highness is losing power now, in order not to cause more trouble to His Royal Highness, she must bear this breath.

“Manny Zhang Bi.”

Zhang Bi’s arrogant expression turned into a pleased smiling face the moment he heard Ming Jiuzhu’s voice. She turned around, her voice was very kind: “What is the princess’ order?”

“I can’t tell you.” Jiuzhu walked to her and handed her a wooden box: “The empress said, you are frightened today, good jade bracelets, you take this pair of jade bracelets back and wear them.”

“Thank you empress empress and princess.” Zhang Bin took the wooden box and thanked you before opening it.

“Don’t say thank you.” Jiuzhu nodded slightly at her, turned to look at Yun Yanze and Sun Caiyao: “Brother Sihuang, Sisao, I will send you out.”

Sun Caiyao stared at Ming Jiuzhu in a daze. Did she hear what Zhang Bie said just now, so she came out to help them out?

Zhang Yan glanced at Ming Jiuzhu, then at Yun Yanze and his wife, and found an excuse to slip away quickly and walk faster than the cat.

“Brother Sihuang, Sister-in-law, please.” Jiuzhu walked ahead to lead the way, and Sun Caiyao silently followed behind her. She turned her head to look at Yun Yanze.

His Highness looked at Ming Jiuzhu’s back at this moment, what was thinking in his heart?

The Royal Highness in her dream should have liked Ming Jiuzhu, because of the wedding in the dream, he smiled so happily.

It’s a pity that Ming Jiuzhu’s face is hidden behind the Tuan Fan, she doesn’t know if she is happy or sad.

But compared with the wedding that Wang Chen prepared for her, the wedding in the dream was eclipsed.

Walking out of the gate of Mingyue Palace, Yun Yanze stopped: “Thank you brother and sister all the way, please stay.”

Jiuzhu stopped and turned to look at them: “Emperor brother and sister-in-law go slowly.”

Yun Yanze glanced at her, arched his hands, and departed gracefully.

Jiuzhu looked at their backs without much expression on his face.

“I know you came out to rescue them.” Wang Chen walked to her, wrapped her hand into his palm, not looking at the direction Yun Yanze had left: “Go, go back to eat.”

After the two of them had eaten in Mingyue Palace, Jiuzhu didn’t want to take the footsteps, and the two slowly walked side by side on the palace road.

“His Royal Highness, are all the people in the palace like this?”

“You mean Zhang Bi?” Wang Chen knew what Jiu Zhu was talking about, and laughed: “There is never a shortage of people in the palace. Zhang Bi can only be regarded as a real villain, but not to be afraid. What’s really scary is the kind of poisonous snake that seems to be warm and harmless and cannibalistic.”

“This is not only the imperial palace, but also the pinnacle of the power of the entire Dacheng.” Wang Chen took Jiuzhu’s hand and walked slowly forward: “In the late years of the first emperor, the concubines competed for the throne in order to help their heirs, and various methods of harm were endless. Unclear innocent men and women are involved, the death of death, the disability, and the most miserable thing is that the whole family is involved, and the blood flows into a river.”

The wind was blowing a little bit cold, Jiuzhu came closer to him.

“The uncle with a gentle smile in the past became a twisted evil spirit in the battle for imperial power, and lost his ethical wisdom.” Wang Chen sighed: “So over the years, I have stayed away from the throne.”

“Sixteen years ago, I raised a dog. Wherever I go, it wags its tail and follows it. Until one day, I accidentally dropped the snack on the plate and was eaten by the puppy… “

“and after?”

“It’s dead.” Wang Chen still remembered now that it was a little white dog with short limbs, and it ran like a little hairy ball.

“The snack… is poisonous?” Jiuzhu’s eyes widened.

“Yes, it’s poisonous.” Chen Wang sneered, “From then on, everything that comes into my mouth will be eaten by people around me first.”

Jiuzhu suddenly thought that the mints and snacks she gave to His Royal Highness had never been tried by others.

“You are not someone else. Why don’t I dare to take the things you brought?” Wang Chen knew what she was thinking by looking at her expression: “What’s more, when did the food you brought with you ate better than me? More?”

“Then if I start thinking of going to death with you, aren’t you fooled?” Jiuzhu snorted: “Your Highness, your vigilance is still not high enough.”

“I am self-confidence.” Chen Wang raised his eyebrows: “Believe in your own eyes, and believe that you will not hurt me.”

Jiuzhu laughed, and the two looked up at the moon hanging in the sky.

“His Royal Highness, it’s almost the peach blossom season.”

“Ok.”

“So when shall we go painting together?”

“…”

“His Royal Highness, why don’t you speak?”

“Oh, I’m thinking about where the scenery is the most beautiful and more suitable for painting.”

Zhang 嫔 suddenly moved to the palace, arousing the curiosity of other concubines. Since His Majesty became the throne, Zhang Bie has lived in this palace, so why did he suddenly begin to move to the palace?

A concubine sent someone to inquire about the news, and the palace clerk who was serving by Zhang’s concubine said mysteriously: “This is an order from your majesty and the queen.”

The scenery in Qingfeng Tower is indeed better, but Zhang Bi is unpleasant, and there is a daughter who has offended Wang Chen. Why did the queen move her to the palace?

They should be more like the queen than Zhang Bie.

“Master, the Mingyue Palace side suddenly moved Zhang Bie to the palace. Have you found out that there is a problem with Zhang Bie?”

“When did Su Meidai become so smart, our plan was just beginning, and she saw it through.”

“Then what should we do now?”

“What can I do, of course I can only wait. Now not only does her majesty support her, but the Ming family is also on their side.”

“Ming’s family?”

“At the New Year’s Eve banquet, Ming Jinghai and Ming Jingzhou, two brothers, sang and suppressed the Yun Yanze faction cleanly. What do you think of them for?”

“To pave the way for King Chen?”

“Besides this reason, what else can make them press harder and not give Yun Yanze half a leeway? This action means that they are standing on the opposite side of Yun Yanze. As long as the Ming family does not fall, it will never be possible for Yun Yanze to fall. Enthroned.”

“But it’s been spread all the time outside that the Ming family doesn’t like Wang Chen, why would they start to help him?”

“Perhaps, the unlearned king Chen has better control than other princes.”

“But the slave and maid thought…”

“Think that the Ming family is not such a person? Oh, the three Ming family brothers back then were arrogant. It’s a pity that people will change.”

“People can change.” Wang Huai said to his two younger brothers: “Maybe the fifth brother can really recite “Nongsang Ji”.”

His Majesty is unwilling to agree to King Chen’s proposal to add Kai Enke, unless King Chen recites the “Nong Sang Ji” within five days, which has become an open secret in the court.

Not only the officials in the court knew about this, but even the people heard the rumors.

Compared with the uneasy civil servants, the people are full of confidence in Chen Wang, and this confidence is given to them by the domineering Wangye series of stories.

The literati who secretly scolded Wang Chen did not scold him anymore. Some scholars even secretly put incense on the image of Confucius, begging him to bless Wang Chen to memorize the “Nongsang Ji” intact.

The “Nong Sang Ji” of various bookstores has also become a bestseller in just a few days, because many scholars have speculated that Your Majesty will let the King Chen memorize this book, which shows that His Majesty values ​​the content of this book.

The most excessive is some gambling houses, also betting on this matter.

Some people who thought they knew Wang Chen couldn’t recite him.

The people who joined in the excitement almost took him to recite.

“Outrageous, too outrageous.” Yun Qirong strolled around the major gambling houses, and said to several other friends after coming out: “The odds that the king can’t recite are actually higher.”

“It seems that our people in the capital have a lot of confidence in the prince.” A dude asked, “What did you take?”

“Then you have to ask, of course, it is possible to bet on the prince.” Yun Qirong said with his hands on his hips: “It doesn’t matter whether you make money or not. The most important thing is that you must have sufficient support for the prince.”

“Qi Rong made sense, and we can also go to the prince to recite it.”

Is there any **** who doesn’t cheer for his boss?

Isn’t it silver? They have it!

After betting the money, a few people looked at the sky too early: “Qi Rong, where are we going now?”

“Go to Yuyingtang.” Yun Qirong said: “His Royal Highness asks us to do more good deeds. Let’s listen to him.”

A few of their brothers have accepted the position of the third-class guards of the imperial court, and they have all been promoted to the second-class positions in the first two days. These are the benefits of listening to the orders of their Highness.

“We can’t go to the nursery empty-handed.”

“Yes, buy some grain and oil toys or something.”

“The enlightenment book can also bring some of the past. It is good for children to recognize a few words.”

“Brothers, walk.”

At this moment, several family patriarchs gathered together, looking forward to the plan that was about to succeed.

“Things are arranged, sure there is no problem?”

“Don’t worry, there will be no more accidents.”

“What are those dogs of Wang Chen doing?”

“They are betting on the game at the gambling shop.”

“Very good. I don’t believe it anymore, there can be someone else to disrupt the situation today!”
