The man wore a silver mask, and his face could not be seen, but the eyes revealed were profound and unpredictable.
Chen Feng rode forward and said, "Who is blocking the way?"
The man ignored Chen Feng and looked at the carriage, "Where is Prince Ling?"
Xie Jingyan looked at him, "Are you looking for me?"
The man grabbed the reins and said, "A man named Chen Qi asked me to deliver a letter to you on his behalf."
Before he finished speaking, the man flicked his hand and a letter flew towards Xie Jingyan.
Xie Jingyan stretched out his hand to catch the letter.
Seeing him catching the letter, the man said nothing and turned around on horseback to leave.
Xie Jingyan accepted the letter, but kept looking at the man.
For some reason, this man gave him a vague feeling of déjà vu...
He withdrew his eyes and fell on the letter in his hand.
Chen Qi.
It was the secret guard he sent to Wangzhou, the fiefdom of King Cheng, to inspect the iron mines.
There was no news for so long, and he asked others to carry the message. Sure enough, something happened.
Xie Jingyan opened the letter, glanced at it a few times, and then frowned.
Shen Wan looked at him and asked, "What did Chen Qi find out?"
Xie Jingyan said, "Not only does the iron mine exist in King Cheng's fiefdom, but it has been mined for two years."
Shen Wan was shocked.
After Xie Jingyin ascended the throne in his previous life, King Cheng took the initiative to report that iron ore had been discovered in his fief. Xie Jingyin trusted King Cheng so much that he not only did not change King Cheng's fiefdom, but also handed over the mining of iron ore to King Cheng.
Because King Cheng took the initiative and did not take the iron ore as his own, Shen Wan thought that King Cheng had not discovered that there was iron ore in his fiefdom, but it turned out that he had been mining it silently for two years.
Without the permission of the court, mining without permission is a capital offense.
The emperor is the brother of Wang Cheng's mother. Wang Cheng chose to hide it from the emperor, but took the initiative to tell Xie Jingyin, what did Wang Cheng want to do?
The more she got to know Cheng Wang, the more terrifying Shen Wan felt.
In her previous life, her father and brother died tragically, and Xie Jingyan raised troops in the northwest to rebel. On the surface, it was Xie Jingyin and Queen Song's work, but she knew nothing about what King Cheng did behind the scenes.
After the death of Prince Cheng, Princess Cheng sought death in the palace. The Queen Mother married Princess Yongan away from home during her period of filial piety. From then on, she closed the Shoukang Palace tightly, neither Xie Jingyin nor King Cheng was seen...
The Queen Mother must have known that Xie Jingyin was able to ascend to the throne of God and that he had contributed a lot to becoming the king. Perhaps even the death of the emperor in his previous life was actually caused by someone as she had guessed. His biological son avoided seeing him.
Shen Wan took the letter from Xie Jingyan and glanced at it a few times. It probably said that Chen Qi was ordered to check the iron mines. The iron mines were strictly guarded. After sneaking in, he couldn't send the message, so he was delayed for some time. After finding out the mining time of the iron ore, Chen Qi was about to leave, but was discovered by the people guarding the iron ore, who chased him all the way.
He was assassinated and fell off a cliff. Fortunately, there was a lake at the bottom of the cliff, so he was not thrown to death. He was floating in the water with only his last breath. A man passed by on a boat and found him floating in the lake holding a piece of wood, and took him away. He was rescued from the water and recognized him as King Ling's man from the token he carried with him. Chen Qi didn't know how the man recognized him. Only Xie Jingyan and his trusted secret guard knew the token, but the man just recognized it. Out.
Chen Qi was seriously injured and could not return to Beijing until he recovered. Knowing that the man had something to do and wanted to go to Beijing, Chen Qi thought about it again and again and decided to take the risk and asked the man to bring this letter to Xie Jingyan.
It was sealed with fire paint and there was no trace of opening before it was sent to Xie Jingyan. This shows that the man wearing the mask just now is trustworthy.
Previously, King Cheng secretly poked and poked at King Jin, making them suspicious, but the iron mine incident completely exposed King Cheng's fox tail.
The boy drove the carriage back to Prince Ling's Mansion.
In the carriage, Shen Wan looked at Xie Jingyan and saw that his brows were furrowed. She said, "Do you know that you want to report this to your father?"
Xie Jingyan said, "It's about becoming a king, so my father may not believe me."
King Cheng is the younger brother of the same mother as the emperor. In addition, he asked the emperor to ask the emperor last time which one of the eldest prince and the king of Jin is more optimistic about being the crown prince. As a result, King Cheng said that he is more optimistic about him. He then told the emperor, "Wang Cheng is more optimistic about him." There is iron ore on the fiefdom, which is more like trying to provoke the emperor and Cheng Wang.
Shen Wan said, "If you don't tell me, how do you know the emperor doesn't believe you?"
At most, if they say that the emperor doesn't believe it, there will be no other hindrance to them, because the emperor will not ask the king.
Xie Jingyan said, "Next time I go to the palace to mention it to my father."
After he finished speaking, seeing Shen Wan looking at him, hesitant to speak, Xie Jingyan asked, "What do you want to say?"
Shen Wan said, "My father's birthday banquet is coming soon. What birthday gift are you going to give me?"
Shen Wan intended to take over this matter, but recently Xie Jingyan had been calling the emperor "Father" in private. Shen Wan changed his mind again. It would be better for Xie Jingyan to prepare the birthday gift for the emperor himself.
"Draw a picture as a gift."
Xie Jingyan spoke directly without thinking.
However, Shen Wan's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, and she quickly said, "Don't..."
Xie Jingyan looked at her, "With such a big reaction, why can't you send paintings to your father?"
It is already good that he is willing to give a painting he painted, otherwise he would just pick something from the warehouse as a birthday gift, maybe the one he picked was gifted to him by the emperor.
Of course it's okay to send paintings, but the problem is that the painting Xie Jingyan sent in his previous life was of Concubine Chen.
The emperor was very happy to receive Xie Jingyan's birthday gift. When he opened it and saw that the portrait was of Concubine Chen, the emperor's expression changed immediately. Really, if Xie Jingyan hadn't been sitting in a wheelchair, the emperor would have wanted to chop off his head. .
Concubine Chen was taboo to the emperor and could not even be mentioned. He also sent Concubine Chen's portrait to the emperor on his birthday. Wasn't this deliberately causing trouble for the emperor?
Shen Wan said nothing, and Xie Jingyan asked, "Why don't you let me send the painting?"
Shen Wan said, "Then you promise me not to draw pictures of mother and concubine."
Xie Jingyan, "..."
The black line on Xie Jingyan's forehead slid down, he pinched Shen Wan's nose and said, "In your eyes, am I so heartless?"
Shen Wan, "..."
I have never seen anyone scolding myself like this.
She looked into his eyes and said word by word, "In my dream, what you gave me was the portrait of my mother and concubine, which made my father very angry."
Almost instantly, Xie Jingyan's brows twisted into knots.
He knew that in Shen Wan's dream, before the emperor died, he was in a wheelchair. He hated his father in his heart, but no matter how much he hated his father, he would not take advantage of his mother and concubine on the day of his father's birthday party. He wanted to find a way to make his father angry, but he would never do such a thing to his mother and concubine, which would make people think of his mother and concubine again and criticize him behind his back.
Xie Jingyan believed Shen Wan when he said that he had a sweetheart, and even died of being pierced by thousands of arrows to save her. However, Xie Jingyan didn't believe it. He looked at Shen Wan and said, "Are you sure I gave her the portrait of my mother and concubine?" ?”
Shen Wan nodded. In his previous life, the emperor saw that the portrait was of Concubine Chen. Long Yan was furious and threw the painting on the ground. She was sitting close to the emperor and could see clearly.
Xie Jingyan's brows were knotted.
