The Cute Peasant Wife: Mian Niang - C324 Deploy
“The prince has made his preparations long ago. Today, a minister has come forward to speak on behalf of the prince, to seek justice for him, to ask for His Majesty’s opinion. The officials in the mansion have also made their moves, but these people’s subordinates cannot get in touch with them, and they do not listen to the royal consort’s orders, so I have no idea what they are planning to do, or what they are planning to do.”
“It’s like this?” Xiao Zongxian pondered for a moment, then said: “Since royal father has already prepared everything, there shouldn’t be a problem. How about this, I’ll send a message to mufei.”
“Yes.”
Jiang Ting took a step forward, then said in a low voice: “Tell mufei that the lotus seed in the western suburbs of Courtyard has bloomed, and tell her not to forget to pluck a little lotus seed. royal father likes to drink lotus seed porridge the most.”
Although he did not know what to say, Jiang Ting nodded his head and remained silent. Xiao Zongxian was secretly satisfied with what he had said, it was true that he wanted this kind of person to be by his side.
“One more thing, keep an eye on Gu Han. See if this little person riding the wall has joined the side of the Emperor.”
Jiang Ting agreed once again.
Xiao Zongxian was relieved, he pretended to be angry and kicked Jiang Ting out.
This made Xiao Zongxian even more satisfied. This fellow had a dull, taciturn personality, but he did not expect that at the time he should act, he would actually be unambiguous.
He chased Jiang Ting out of the house, and after a while, he started to torture the young eunuch again, saying that he wanted to take a bath.
When he came back, he was no longer Jiang Ting, but had another familiar face. It was one of the fiercest little eunuchs he had tormented in the past two days.
There was no sound from outside. Presumably, Jiang Ting had already slipped out of the palace.
Xiao Zongxian was very confident in Jiang Ting’s skill.
This time, his heart lit up, and he felt even more at ease tormenting the young eunuch.
What the Prince Rong didn’t know was that Jiang Ting, whom he should have long since slipped out of the palace, still hadn’t left.
He then made his way to the emperor’s chamber with ease and familiarity.
Then, he took advantage of the darkness of the night to silently sneak in.
No one had noticed.
When the emperor saw the young eunuch who had suddenly appeared in front of him, he almost threw the paper in his hand out.
Fortunately, he was able to clearly see that face in time.
“If my hand was slightly faster, wouldn’t you be disfiguring me?” The emperor put down the paper and smiled gently, “However, it is not a disfigurement. The face you have is not a deity’s face.”
This sentence seemed to be somewhat disdainful.
The king was not in a good mood. If there was someone who knew what was good for him, he would definitely go along with what the king said and make the king laugh.
Ignoring the fact that the one standing here was Jiang Ting, it seemed like everything was already set in stone.
Jiang Ting bowed and replied: “My body is covered with skin, and even my parents are the same. Even if Your Majesty despised me, I have long since changed my appearance.”
“You … “Ai, forget it, I’m too lazy to compare notes with you. If I really ruin your looks, then even if the Imperial Tutor found out, he would still have to rely on me to interrogate him.”
“Father won’t, he doesn’t dare!”
“…” “Yeah, he doesn’t dare to do that. He was wrongly accused back then, yet he didn’t say a single word. Truly, it’s like thunder rain, a blessing from the heavens.”
These words were said in anger, it was not that Tutor Jiang did not submit his information, but the evidence was conclusive. Furthermore, he was nailed to the ground by King Rong, so he had no way of knowing what had happened.
However, at that time, the late emperor was already ill and the authority in his hands had long ago fallen. Furthermore, the King Rong still had the support of the empress dowager, whose beloved son was like a dying snake.
But now, he regretted his actions from the beginning. He had indulged in adultery, resulting in his authority falling. He himself had been the puppet emperor for more than ten years.
It was still a taboo to throw a rat now, and he had a lot to worry about.
His Majesty threw the papers on the desk to Jiang Ting: “Take a look, this has only been closed for two days, but there have already been countless people who submitted their letters containing hidden truths, and even said that for my Xiao clan and mountains, all the people in this world must toil and bow to the best of their abilities, all the way to Hai Qinghe, living a peaceful life, and tell us not to be discouraged from working for our subjects, and not to be disheartened anymore!”
The hearts of the common people in this world. “As for this internal conflict, even if they call Hai Qing He’s prosperous times peaceful, they would call it toiling for power and even bowing with all their might. This Emperor does not know that all of these subjects of mine are actually so eloquent.”
Jiang Ting bowed and accepted the imperial report, opening it to take a look, and indeed, it was true.
“What do you want to say?” His Majesty stared at him.
“I know that you are unwilling to speak, and even more unwilling to participate in such matters. Your heart only wants to do as I tell you, doesn’t it?”
Jiang Ting lowered his eyes in silence.
His Majesty was angered. “I don’t understand you anymore. You were taught well by the Imperial Tutor when you were young. It’s impossible for you not to understand these things. How can you not say a word?”
“Teach.”
Jiang Ting cupped his hands, “This humble subject does not dare speak carelessly because of such a big matter.”
“Pui!” “Come on!” His Majesty was furious. “Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re thinking. You only have the goal of avenging yourself, so you’ve never thought of entering the imperial court. If I’m right, you’ll probably retreat when the dust settles, won’t you?”
His Majesty the emperor pressed on.
Jiang Ting raised his head at a leisurely pace, and shook his head in front of the emperor’s gaze.
Just as the Emperor was about to get angry, Jiang Ting had already said: “My clan’s grudge is not avenged, my lord has not been eliminated, everything has happened way too early, this humble subject has never considered about it, about the matters of the imperial court, His Majesty has his own plans, and also have a loyal general to help you share your worries, but this humble subject has his own thoughts, it is just that everything still needs His Majesty’s permission, Jiang Ting will follow his orders!”
His Majesty the Emperor was comforted by these words.
His mood gradually calmed down.
He said to himself: “Yes, he is such a person. You already knew about him. That is why you can be assured that you will hand over the most important matter to him.”
It was because he only had the heart for revenge, but no right to be ambitious.
More importantly, they had a common enemy.
The emperor calmed himself down and sat back on the dragon throne. He finally asked about Xiao Zongxian’s situation.
He understood that his Imperial Uncle could only have a son like him, and that everything that would happen in the future would be his. But you tell me that he’s smart, and that he’s really unable to put all his thought into women, and that if he doesn’t, he wouldn’t be helpless now, and would only be able to depend on his royal father and mother for everything. ”
Even though she said that, the emperor did not dare to underestimate this younger cousin. After all, the King Rong couple was behind Xiao Zongxian.
However, there were already cracks between the Prince Rong’s Mansion, the husband and the wife, and the father. Right now, they had to seriously think about how to make use of this.
“Just wait and see. These people won’t be submitting their love letters in a few days.” His Majesty’s tone was icy as he said, “The next step is probably to kneel outside my chamber and plead for the loyal king who has died in the prison.”
“Your Majesty?” Although he had expected such a thing, the king didn’t seem to see it as clearly as he had expected. There was even a trace of heaviness in his tone.
“When that time comes, we will know exactly how many people stand by the side of the King Rong in this imperial court, and how many people are truly serving the nation and the people.”
Jiang Ting looked at the emperor, waiting for his next step.
His Majesty took out two anthology of Tang poetry from under his desk and placed them in his hands. Then, he stood up and walked to Jiang Ting’s side and placed the two books in his hands.
Jiang Ting, I can’t be at ease leaving this matter to anyone, I can only leave this matter to you, you must definitely settle this matter well. “Su Yun said in a low voice.
Jiang Ting took the collection of Tang Shi’s poems and opened the cover. Sure enough, it was not Tang Shi’s book but an account book.
“We want these two people to be the first to admonish and discipline Prince Rong!”
Jiang Ting agreed.
“There’s still one more sect that needs to let Xiao Zongxian know that his royal father’s final path of retreat is to take him on as punishment, you know what to do right?”
“This humble subject understands!”
Jiang Ting kept the collection of Tang Shi’s poems in his arms. It was no longer convenient for him to wear the clothes of a young eunuch, so Jiang Ting took off his clothes to reveal the clothes he wore at night.
The eunuch’s uniform was placed in a suitable place.
It was a rare act of his to be presumptuous. His Majesty the emperor would not feel offended if he did not enter, but it was rare for him to feel pressed in his heart.
If Jiang Ting found out about this, he would definitely silently curse how lonely he was since he had such a high position.
Walking out of His Majesty’s chamber, he ran out of the palace.
The palace was now under martial law, and its defenses were even more heavily guarded than before.
When Jiang Ting left the emperor’s chambers, he thought for a moment before rushing towards the Sky Prison.
Along the way, they met the brothers from the dark guard camp. After giving a signal and knowing they were on the same side, they brushed past each other. They came and went in a hurry and no longer had the mood to joke around.
The Celestial Prison was heavily guarded.
However, Jiang Ting naturally had a way to sneak in.
It had been a long time since anyone had been locked in this place. There was only the sound of rats and the smell of blood mixed in.
The leader of the Celestial Prison guards was reprimanding his subordinates, speaking with righteous words. He did not allow them to submit to him just because of the high status of the people they had locked in.
He was as righteous as a god.
After dispersing, he stood at the door of Prince Rong’s room. He seemed to be reprimanding and jeering, but in reality he was passing on the news, simply explaining the situation outside.
Prince Rong joined in the scolding, expressing his disdain for a small commander. In reality, she had already sent a long prepared paper slip to him.
He was a cunning old fox and had already anticipated the situation. Seeing that everything was progressing according to his plan step by step, even though he was extremely shrewd, he could not help but let out a satisfied smile.
Jiang Ting crouched on top of the beam in the room, looking at everything with his eyes.
