After I disguised myself as a man, I became everyone's white moonlight
Chapter 54 I Invite You to Ningxiang Tower
"Qibai, you didn't see it today. Rong Qingzhu almost lost his composure in front of the emperor." Tang Yuhuai knew that Rong Qingzhu came out because he was interrupted when speaking in front of the emperor, and felt aggrieved.
"Why?" Chu Xi asked casually while eating slowly.
When Tang Yuhuai said this, he actually didn't even notice that the smile on his face had long faded, leaving only a hint of indescribable gloom.
"Rong Qingzhu wants His Majesty to thoroughly investigate the origins of the flood and epidemic in Yunzhou, as well as the connection between Qingshan Peak and Yunzhou officials, including the assassination attempt on us."
In fact, the answer to this matter is already very clear. It is not the point to attack Rong Qingzhu, Chu Qibai, or even the medicinal materials they are escorting. What they want to destroy is King Yan, the leader of disaster relief in Yunzhou City.
Who is eager for the King of Yan to die quickly? Who is eager for the King of Yan not to return to Beijing?
Of course, it is a conflict of interest with Prince Yan. If Prince Yan falls, the ones who will benefit most from them are...several princes.
No matter how foolish Your Majesty is, it is impossible for him to not guess it. He is just pretending not to know. No one can wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep.
"His Majesty has refused." Chu Xi said in a firm tone.
She picked up a piece of fresh fish and ate it slowly. Just as Tang Yuhuai said, the white pear blossoms in Wangyue Tower were unique and the dishes were also good.
"How do you know..." Rong Qingzhu asked subconsciously, but before he finished speaking, he quickly realized that Tang Yuhuai's words at the beginning hinted that he had hit a snag in front of the emperor.
"Your Majesty will not investigate this matter thoroughly. He will be forced to send people to investigate this matter due to the pressure from the court and public opinion, but this matter will not have much result. We can only find out the person behind the scenes ourselves and keep this account."
"There will never be any real answers to this case from the beginning."
Because there were too many people involved in this assassination, the Seventh Prince was behind the Nalan family, and the Eighth Prince was behind the Yao family. She was not sure if there were other princes involved.
These two things alone are enough to make His Majesty give up the idea of a thorough investigation. Losing two princes at once is not the balance His Majesty wants to see.
The Yao family, the Eighth Prince, the Seventh Prince and other forces will take the opportunity to destroy the evidence, and what will be found in the end will be nothing more than the pawns they have discarded.
Chu Xi only said a few short words, but Tang Yuhuai and Rong Qingzhu understood. It should be said that they understood it from the beginning, but... they were unwilling to accept it.
I am unwilling to accept that so many people died on the road to Yunzhou, and so many Yunzhou people were displaced and lost their families, only to get such an unfair answer.
"It has been said since ancient times that a prince who breaks the law is guilty of the same crime as a commoner. In fact, is it really like this?" Chu Xi should be the only one among the three who can eat.
Rong Qingzhu had put down his chopsticks as soon as Tang Yuhuai started talking. He came out to relax and didn't have much appetite.
As for Tang Yuhuai, he was drinking silently, and no one knew who he was competing with.
Chu Xi had been hungry for a long time, and there was a table full of delicious food in front of him, so of course he had to eat.
So what if I can't eat? I'm so angry that I'm going to get sick but I can't catch the person behind it. I might as well be nicer to myself.
To be honest, based on what Chu Xi had experienced in Yunzhou, she felt that it was not unreasonable that the Great Zhou Dynasty experienced four years of civil strife and that there were uprisings and rebellions in several places.
If she had not taken over Chu Jiang's identity and was already tied to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion, any action she took would have implicated innocent people.
She wanted to recruit soldiers and rebel.
This kind of person makes me feel sick even if I work for him.
"Qi Bai is right. We should have known this long ago." Rong Qingzhu sighed, "But I feel a little unwilling in my heart."
So many lives were taken so hastily.
Tang Yuhuai didn't want to have to worry about these things during his rare visit, so he quickly changed the subject, "After you finish eating, I'll invite you to Ningxiang Tower to listen to some music."
"Okay." Chu Xi thought it was a good idea. If the royal family wanted to remember her, then she would first dye her "reputation" from blank paper with some color.
She could see that Zhou Qingmin was a proud person and would not be able to tolerate a husband like her who lived a life of debauchery and loved going to brothels.
Under the gaze of the two people, Rong Qingzhu was about to say forget it, but then he was pulled aside by one of them and dragged down the stairs.
"Stop talking nonsense. If you are brothers, then go together. After all, we are in a relationship of life and death." Tang Yuhuai fooled people.
Chu Xi simply said, "Just listen to the music, don't do anything else."
What could shake Rong Qingzhu was naturally the following sentence.
Outside of Wangyue Tower, the streets are very lively. Wangyue Tower is two streets away from Ningxiang Tower, both of which are main streets.
When they passed the second main street, the three of them unexpectedly saw a large arena where people were fighting.
"What is the purpose of their competition?" Chu Xi remembered that the original owner seldom went out at night. One reason was that he was worried about his identity being exposed, and the other was that he did not like going out.
People in the capital are free to do whatever they want before curfew, as long as they don't occupy the space of other shops and don't disturb public order.
Although Tang Yuhuai was a disciple of General Tang, because he personally loved martial arts, he collected many martial arts secrets from various major sects.
"The person on the left is from the Qingfeng School. Their martial arts emphasize beauty. They move with the help of the wind. Every move is as smooth as flowing clouds and water. It is beautiful and graceful."
"The one on the right is the Meteor Sect, which focuses on external skills. It tempers the whole body into copper and iron, making it invulnerable to swords and guns and difficult to break through."
With a martial arts fanatic like Tang Yuhuai around, the two of them had no way of getting away. He pulled one in each hand and led them in.
Rong Qingzhu was not familiar with martial arts, and his mediocre skills were not enough to protect himself. "Who will win between the two of them?"
"The former is a combination of speed and lightness, but lacks in damage, while the latter has practiced external skills to the extreme. As long as he keeps attacking, the former cannot hurt him and can only flee, which will deplete his physical strength. The one on the right has a better chance of winning."
Although Chu Xi did not understand their martial arts, he could tell from their moves that the former was having a hard time coping. He could not win by using tricks, and he could not avoid running out of energy if he kept dodging, and he had already been hit by a punch.
Rong Qingzhu was just asking casually. He didn't care who won or lost. The three of them were just passing by and he didn't know why they were fighting.
The young man from the Qingfeng School on the stage seemed to have heard Chu Xi's analysis. During the fight, he even found the energy to glance at the position of Chu Xi and the other two below the stage.
The look in his eyes was a little cold, and a little...resentful, as if he was blaming Chu Xi for speaking.
Tang Yuhuai noticed the man's eyes and silently took a step forward, with the intention of intimidating the man to some extent.
Unfortunately, that person...soon lost interest in looking at Chu Xi, because he was defeated within three moves.
When a person's external skills are practiced to the extreme, no matter how good his lightness skills are, he will not be able to withstand long-term physical exertion.
Losing is inevitable.
The man from the Qingfeng School was knocked off the ring, fell to the ground, vomited blood, and coughed a few times.
