Chapter 410 Ukyo Imperial City
The two close maids beside Xiao Wentao's mother were also hard-working people. When his mother went to burn incense and worship Buddha, Lu met these two sisters begging in the street, so they were brought into the mansion as maids.
The two girls also knew that the Xiao family was benefactors, and they were diligent and diligent in their daily life, serving their mother with great care, so the Xiao family also regarded them as family members.
"Master, we've finished breakfast, and there's still some noodle soup in the pot, why don't you go to my house and warm it up for you, Master?" Xiaocui said.
At this moment, Wang Jiu walked in. Since he reunited with his old lover, Wang Jiu's complexion has improved a lot.
From an old man who looked like 90 or [-] years old, he turned his old age back into a child, and now he looks like a half-century rich man.
Of course, the care of Xiao Wentao's mother is indispensable.
"Uncle Ninth." Xiao Wentao said.
Hearing Xiao Wentao calling him Uncle Nine, Wang Jiu was still very sad, and blamed himself for not fulfilling his father's responsibility.
"It's great that Wen Tao is back..." My mother came back from the back room at this time, "Come, let's have dinner together."
"Yes." Xiao Wentao nodded.
At the banquet, Wang Jiu said: "How is it in the capital recently?"
Now Wang Jiu bought a house near the pier in the capital, and would come back to live there for a few days every month, while Xiao Wentao's mother was placed in the capital.
"Uncle Nine...I accidentally put Li Huaiyu to sleep." Xiao Wentao ate with a sullen head.
Wang Jiu spit out his wine, stood up and pointed at Xiao Wentao angrily: "What did you say?!"
"Boy, you did a good job... Eh?!" Mother stood up in shock, but quickly realized that Li Huaiyu... Could it be the daughter of the former emperor, the Seventh Princess of the dynasty?
She hurriedly said: "You, you, are you going to be so mad as a mother? It's true that mother wants to see you get married early, but...but who is not good for you to sleep with? You have to sleep with the princess!"
"Father, I met a novel master I liked in a restaurant when I was idle and bored. At that time, I thought she was a talented woman, so I chatted with her a lot. I couldn't hold it back for a while..." Xiao Wentao looked aggrieved.
Wang Jiu is also helpless, now everything in the Wang family is given by the imperial court, and Princess Li Huaiyu is indeed beautiful, although she is not in good shape, but she has a good face, and Xiao Wentao does not know the identity of the other party, then again, if at that time It's me, if I really see a beautiful court lady, can I hold it back?
After a while, Wang Jiu said: "I will send a letter to Tianji City to propose marriage to Your Majesty."
"Ah?" Xiao Wentao stood up in shock.
Just at this time, a servant girl came over and reported: "Master, madam, there is a girl outside the door who wants to find the young master."
"What's it like?"
"There are two ponytails." The maid replied.
People in this family looked at each other in blank dismay.
A few days later, in the military camp outside Tianji City, Emperor Xuanwu was looking at the map, and You Qiansui came over quickly and said, "Your Majesty, there is a letter from the capital."
"Huh? Is it the prime minister's?"
"It belongs to Master Wang Jiuwang." You Qiansui said.
Emperor Xuanwu was also puzzled, thinking that Wang Jiu was in charge of the water department with Zhao Gonglu, why did he write a letter now?
But when she unfolded it, she smiled. It turned out that Wang Jiu explained it clearly in the letter, and she said: "Yes, Huaiyu is not young anymore, she should get married, and the young master of the Wang family, He is also a talent, and my spies reported that he used his own power to revitalize a family of escort agencies that were on the verge of bankruptcy."
"Yes, Your Majesty." You Qiansui said, he thought for a while, and then said, "Your Majesty, there is another piece of news."
"Oh?" The current Emperor Xuanwu is indifferent to the so-called good news and bad news. After all, she wants to quickly resolve the crisis in Tianji City, and then mobilize the whole country to deal with the Langya Kingdom. It used to be a vassal state of Yan Kingdom.
If a child is disobedient when he grows up, he must be punished as an adult. Otherwise, if the disobedient child has not been taught a lesson when he was young, he may cause even more difficult troubles when he grows up.
Emperor Xuanwu accepted the secret letter from You Qiansui. This letter was encrypted, and only extremely important information would be encrypted in this way.
"Mom, I'm awake, but I don't plan to announce this matter immediately. I have dug up a lot of clues. It can be judged that this operation is led by the blood sect, and they even arranged Lin Shu in Langya. Kingdom, let her become the queen of Langya Kingdom, Lin Shu wants to be a woman too much, I think she is being used."
"From the information I have obtained so far, it can be inferred that the current emperor of Langya Kingdom has been controlled, which is equivalent to becoming a puppet in the hands of Lin Shu. I think only by finding the root cause of the problem can we completely eliminate all these scourges. , otherwise we will never have the key to end the war."
After that, it was the evidence that Jiang Han got, which was already his speculation.
These contents are very detailed and well-founded.
When he saw that Jiang Han was planning to sneak into Langya Kingdom alone to find out information, Emperor Xuanwu not only clenched his fists tightly. "This kid..."
She closed the letter and said to You Qiansui: "It seems that Feng Zhengxiong and Ye Chen have gained an advantage." Emperor Xuanwu said.
You Qiansui was overjoyed: "This is a great thing."
"It's a great thing, but right now we can't publicize it too much. Those Jianghu people in Yaoguang City have reached a temporary cooperation with the imperial court, and their suzerain Leng Wuyue has not yet shown up in Tianji City. Before, I felt a powerful aura rise from the ground, nine times out of ten it is because Leng Wuyue has improved again." Emperor Xuanwu threw the letter paper into the brazier next to it, and the letter paper was immediately burned.
You Qiantui said yes respectfully.
Emperor Xuanwu smiled and looked towards the south. At this moment, she suddenly felt that the sun seemed to be much brighter at this time.
On Maojing's side, Fang Qing'er had already used Xue Meigui's identity to come to the palace.
Because although Xueying is a Jianghu sect, it cooperates deeply with the imperial court, so naturally, it has the right to enter the imperial city without reporting.
In the main hall, Fang Qing'er knelt on one knee, with her left hand protecting her right heart, she said, "Your Majesty."
On the high platform, a middle-aged man in a purple dragon robe was sitting majestically. He said slowly, "How is it going?"
"Your Majesty." As she spoke, Fang Qing'er lifted up the golden hairpin, and the eunuch next to her put the golden hairpin on a plate and handed it to the emperor. The emperor took a look at the golden hairpin, and nodded: "very good."
He said it was very good, but to Fang Qing'er it sounded like a needle prick.
Beside the emperor is the newly promoted empress. This person is so glamorous, with red lips and white teeth, especially those captivating eyes, that even Fang Qing'er, who is also a woman, feels overshadowed.
"Queen, now that Princess Qing'er has sacrificed her life for the country, it's time to tell the world." The emperor said.
The queen smiled slightly and nodded towards the emperor: "The courtiers and concubines are all according to His Majesty."
Chapter 411 Crow
The emperor's face was ugly, which made Fang Qing'er feel even more strange.
When she left Beijing, although her father had many old problems, generally speaking, her body was very healthy.
However, seeing it now, it was too different.
His face was bloodless, as if he had suffered from excessive blood loss.
Although he spoke neatly, his unnatural expression made him look like a puppet.
What surprised Fang Qing'er the most was that her father's heartbeat was very slow, much slower than normal.
"Okay, I'm tired, so Ai Qing will step down." The emperor said.
Fang Qing'er nodded and said good, and left with doubts. In fact, she really wanted to know the whereabouts of her mother, but if she said it now, the queen would obviously suspect her.
When she came outside, Fang Qing'er looked around for no one, and quietly sneaked into the courtyard of the harem.
Several royal servants were wandering around loyally, but Concubine Zhen's palace had already been sealed. At the gate of the harem, Fang Qing'er gave a small eunuch a piece of silver, and she said, "Concubine Zhen is not here now. Well, this palace is also deserted, what a pity..."
The little eunuch looked at the silver happily, he weighed it, and then put it in his arms, he said: "Your Excellency, it is better not to come in the future, I know that the Lord and Concubine Zhen have some friendship, but you also know that Concubine Zhen's death is not a coincidence , and now everyone in the palace is silent about it."
"What happened when I left?" Fang Qing'er asked.
The little eunuch looked around and said, "My lord, take a step to speak."
Xue Meigui is also a frequent visitor to the harem, because she was Fang Qinger's master before, so many eunuchs and maids in the harem recognize her.
Near a short tree, the little eunuch's eyes were red: "Sir, don't worry about this matter, I know you can't help it, and you have a very good relationship with Concubine Zhen. After all, Your Excellency and Concubine Zhen often drink tea together. It's served by the slave family... But Concubine Zhen contradicted His Majesty before, you know..."
"Little Yunzi, it's me..." Fang Qing'er took off the human skin mask and said.
Because seeing the little eunuch's eyes turn red, Fang Qing'er thought he was one of her own.
At this moment, the little eunuch saw Fang Qing'er, and his body trembled with excitement: "It's Your Highness the Princess!?"
"How did my concubine mother die?" Fang Qing'er asked, she grabbed the little eunuch's shoulder.
The little eunuch burst into tears, and he shook his head and said: "Concubine Zhen died so resentfully... She persuaded His Majesty not to abolish the Empress three times, but was discovered by the Demon Empress, and finally the Demon Empress... The Demon Empress confused Your Majesty and rewarded him with a glass of poisoned wine." and the three-foot white silk, saying that Concubine Zhen should choose one of the two."
Fang Qing'er was struck by lightning, her whole body stood still on the spot, her hands were trembling, and she quickly clenched into fists: "Father...has the heart..."
"The current emperor is no longer the former Emperor Ren. Since his establishment, His Majesty has become moody, and at night, he must stay overnight in the Queen's Palace. The other concubines have not been blessed for a long time. Although the Queen is young, she The method is unrivaled in the harem..." the little eunuch said while wiping away his tears.
"I see, you too...be careful..." Fang Qinger said.
At this time, there were footsteps in the distance, and the little eunuch hurriedly said: "Your Highness, you should leave the palace quickly and find a place where no one is around to live. The current palace is no longer the original palace, and people are often missing. Ladies and eunuchs Everyone thinks that the queen is a monster, a monster that eats people..."
As he spoke, he bowed to Fang Qing'er, and then left.
Seeing the direction the little eunuch was leaving, Fang Qing'er also put on a human skin mask, and was about to leave first to meet Jiang Han.
But Fang Qing'er didn't see it, just above her head, a crow with red eyes had already settled on a branch.
The whole body of the crow was pitch black, and it was not angry at all. Some parts of its body had exposed bones, which made people shudder.
The crow flapped its wings and flew high. However, in mid-air, a sudden dart flashed and shot the crow down.
It turned out that Jiang Han was squatting on the roof of a palace not far away, playing with a handful of darts in his hand.
"This girl is really worrying."
In the inner garden of the imperial palace, Empress Leng's pretty face changed, and she suddenly opened her eyes because a piece of blood jade in front of her was shattered.
This is a piece of corpse jade, also known as seven orifice jade, which is used by the deceased to block the seven orifices during funerals, and it contains extremely strong corpse aura.
As the corpse keeper of the Corpse Sect, Empress Leng is naturally very proficient in this method of controlling corpses. She pinched the corpse jade in her hand and turned it into a handful of powder: "There are masters."
Looking back at the dragon bed behind him, it was empty, and the emperor was lying in a coffin next to the dragon bed, with a few talismans pasted around the coffin.
She walked to the emperor's side, and uncovered a talisman, and immediately a gloomy silver light appeared in Empress Leng's eyes.
Like a zombie, the emperor stood up straight from the coffin, and he came outside: "Come on."
"Your Majesty." Several eunuch-like people immediately came up and surrounded the emperor.
The emperor said: "Let the Blood Shadow Seven Stars come over, uh... Blood Rose will be spared."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The eunuch immediately took out an incense burner, put it on a plate, and then put a special kind of burning material into the incense burner.
Another eunuch brought incense sticks and lit the fire, and suddenly colorful smoke slowly floated up, like a ribbon floating in the air in the night.
……
In the inn, Jiang Han was reading a newspaper. He held a teacup in one hand and the newspaper in the other. There was also a plate of peanuts and melon seeds on the small table beside him.
squeak...
The window opened, and it was Fang Qing'er who jumped in from the window at this time.
Fang Qing'er was dumbfounded when she saw Jiang Han eating melon seeds inside, "You..."
"How was your stroll?" Jiang Han said, he didn't go to see Fang Qing'er, but continued to read the newspaper. This newspaper is the newspaper of Langya Country, and the newspaper of Dayan Country is the Dayan edition of Jianghu Daily. The newspaper of Langya Kingdom is naturally the Langya edition of Jianghu Daily.
It's just that compared to the Dayan edition, which is as long as fifty or sixty pages, it is obvious that Langya Kingdom's page is much smaller, only twenty pages.
This is no wonder, after all, the size of the country determines what happens in it.
Moreover, Langya Kingdom had always been a vassal state before, but this time there was a sudden disturbance, and most of the news was about the records of this war.
However, like newspapers in many places, the Langya edition basically reports good news but not bad news.
There was no mention of Xingchenhai and Kaiyang City's faux pas.
"Well, you came back so early." Fang Qing'er smiled sarcastically, "You went out?"
"Yeah, I went to buy a newspaper, at least I have to understand some major events in Ukyo."
She suddenly discovered something, she said: "This piece of jade is really interesting."
She saw a piece of golden jade in front of Jiang Han, which Jiang Han used as a light.
This is a piece of jade shaped like an hourglass, and there seems to be a mysterious liquid in the middle.
Jiang Han glanced at the golden jade: "You like it? Then I will give it to you, anyway, it's the same for me to light an oil lamp."
"Okay!" Fang Qing'er was overjoyed, holding the jade and said, "From now on, I won't be afraid of getting lost when I walk at night."
Chapter 412 New Meaning
Jiang Han took a sip of tea.
He is very interested in the Jianghu rankings in newspapers.
One is Jiqiaofang.
The second is the Pleiades.
