Born short-lived
Chapter 58 The Eve of the Summer Festival
Even if Jiang Huailan has been away from home for too long and is "embarrassed and burdened", she is Jiang Huaibi's biological sister after all, so she still has a lot of authority in the Jiang clan.One day before submitting the confidential letter, she went to the library of the Jiang clan.
In addition to various spiritual books and medical books, there are also documents from the past years, including the candidates who are responsible for submitting secret letters every year.
The Jiang Clan has practiced literature in the past dynasties. The Cangshu Pavilion is the largest room in the entire Jiang Clan compound. The whole body is built of stone, and the walls inside are covered with a layer of pepper mud, and the floor tiles are hot-waxed.But even so, there is no open fire in the Jiang Clan Library Pavilion, all the lighting depends on the white crystal magic lamp, and even a match is not allowed to enter the door.
But things like the white crystal psychic lamp are extremely undurable, mainly because the white crystal wick that supplies psychic energy is too fragile, and it will be scrapped if touched lightly, so you have to be careful when you carry it.
Jiang Huailan went in in the middle of the night, lightly lighted a carved glass lamp with white crystal psionic energy, went through all the lamps for nearly 20 years, and soon found the problem.
Since ten years ago, the candidates for submitting the secret letter have not been changed every year. There are always one or two people who have always stayed in it, but the specific positions have changed.
At this point in the matter, it is impossible for Jiang Huailan to temporarily drag these two people down.
She thought that the people of the Jiang clan had not been involved in government affairs for decades, and the fundamental problem certainly did not lie with the Jiang clan—then who would have the guts to make a hidden stake in the Jiang clan?
Jiang Huailan took out a pen and paper from his purse, and copied the names of the two people.However, in the end, she found to her own embarrassment that these two people from her own family were only familiar to her, and she didn't even know which relatives they were.
For the first time, she realized so clearly that she had really been away from home for too long.
Jiang Huailan folded the paper and put it into her sleeves, carefully lifted the white crystal lamp, and put all the documents she had dug out back to their original positions, and fiddled with a few unimportant ones The medical book, quickly back out after finishing.
Holding the thin piece of paper tightly in her bosom, she quickly stepped out of the Jiang Clan compound, and walked along the back wall into a small alley.
"Miss Jiang." A man dressed as a forbidden soldier stood at the corner of the alley and called her in a low voice.
Jiang Huailan looked around for a few times, walked towards him quickly, grabbed the man's arm, pulled him into a dark corner, and quickly stuffed the paper into the man's hand , said: "That's all I can help"
"Thank you Miss Jiang for your help..."
Jiang Huailan raised his hand to stop, pointed to the note in his hand, and said in a low voice: "Give this to the prince, everyone he wants is on it."
After finishing speaking, he turned impatiently and wanted to leave, but was stopped by that person: "Your Highness asked the girl if there is anything else you want to explain?"
Jiang Huailan paused and was silent for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said without looking back: "No more, I will leave the rest to you."
The man didn't say anything else. Seeing Jiang Huailan leaving, he also turned around and hid in the darkness.
The patrol at this point will be a little looser than at other times, because people are most tired at this point, so no one notices that he is going in a different direction than planned.
When he returned to the East Palace, he saw Dong Sheng standing by the well again, staring in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.
The well was completely opened up, and the well water also came up. Dong Sheng kept saying that when the watermelons were ripe in a while, he would get some watermelons and put them in the bottom of the well to freeze them. When he was thirsty, he would fish one up and eat it.
That's why the unsuspecting maids and eunuchs in the palace thought he was greedy every time they saw him rape the well like this.
"Here." He walked over and handed Jiang Huailan's note to Dong Sheng.
Dong Sheng raised his eyelids, looked up and down viciously, and smiled very unkindly: "Passing away? All right, you look like a dog."
I am in a hurry to die: "Don't fucking talk nonsense, take it quickly, and remember to burn it after reading it."
Dong Sheng raised his eyebrows and winked at him, then took the sweaty note: "Did she say anything?"
Past life: "She said to leave it to you."
Dong Sheng gradually suppressed his smile, nodded, unfolded the note, read it, and then returned it to the past life, saying in a deep voice: "Then you should go for a trip and clean up."
The moon this night was surprisingly bright, but in contrast, the shadows under the moon were extremely dark.Dong Sheng's face was hidden under the shadow of the trees in the courtyard, it was too dark to see clearly.
The past life didn't say anything, turned around and left holding the note.
Those two are not from the Jiang family, nor from the Huai generation. They should have been unknown members of the Jiang family, but for some reason, they have been entrusted with many important affairs over the years, and their ranks have been promoted. soon.
No matter how you say it, those who come out to mess around will have to pay back.
However, it may still be a little late.
Dong Sheng thought, the high priest was not alone in the divination for the Xia Ji, and there were many other minor priests beside him, so Jiang Huaibi was definitely not the only one who knew the result of the divination.And this hidden stake has been driven in for so long, and now there is only one day until the Linxia Festival Ceremony, the news that should have leaked out may have leaked out long ago.
But even if Jiang Kun cannot be prevented from knowing the result of the divination, at least he can control the content presented to the queen.
Before the summer festival, all the news submitted to the Golden Luan Hall must be carefully screened, and things that can be "discussed later" will be temporarily stored in the cabinet, and will be presented together after the summer festival.
This gave people a lot of room to flex their fists, and intercepting news at this time would not appear abrupt.
However, some important matters will still be reported as usual, such as the case of Panyang.
"By the way, I heard that Panyang is still not defending. How is Zhou Zirong?" Dong Sheng raised his head, and looked over with a pair of eyes that looked extremely bright under the moonlight. Feeling a little nervous, "Did Your Majesty say anything?"
Passing away: "Your Majesty didn't say anything, General Zhou is now in the palace."
Dong Sheng frowned; "Although the situation in Panyang is serious, there's really nothing we can do here."
The deal is done, they are foreign countries after all, and they have no friendship with Panyang, so the intervention they can do is very limited.It's just that after this, things will be a little tricky. Not only will the patrols in the East China Sea have to be stepped up, but I'm afraid they will have to confront them in the Quartet Federation in the future.
Dong Sheng: "Let Jia Zi and Yun Xiao keep an eye on it, and help if there is anything you can do. Don't let him see it, and don't let him know that I ordered it."
The look of the past life eased a little, nodded and said: "Don't worry."
There are some things in the world that cannot be achieved with hard work.No matter how hard Pan Yang stared at him, something happened.The old emperor of Panyang burped his fart so suddenly that he didn't even have a will, leaving two bloody sons staring blankly.
During his lifetime, the old emperor always felt that his second son was too extreme and did things in an unusual way, so he was not suitable to sit in the court.And the eldest son is too straight-eyed, born in vain in the temple of open guns and dark arrows, he turned out to be an out-and-out solid eye.
So until his death, the old emperor did not have a reserve.
Maybe I still want to wait and see if there is a more suitable son, but unfortunately, the old emperor squatted in the latrine and stood too fast when he got up. On the ground, I couldn't get up again.
With his death, the entire Panyang Palace of Eternal Life was in chaos.
The second son went abroad all the year round, gathered a lot of dubious forces, and he was also close to Da Ling. When the old emperor was in power, he repeatedly proposed to further cooperate with Da Ling. At that time, the old emperor only read He was too young, he scolded a few words but didn't care about it.
The eldest son advocates improving relations with neighboring countries, and advocates re-establishing the old relationship with Hua Xu. At the same time, he has long been displeased with this younger brother who is a monster every day. As soon as their father died, they began to punish him.
The two were arguing red-faced, and the second son jumped over the wall in a hurry, and finally attacked the mission—aren't you going to make friends?I want you to fight to the death!
In this way, the eldest son was completely out of control, and the second son knew that his brother was going to kill him, so he simply took a slanted sword and recruited all the crooked ways he had wooed in the early years, and acted first.
The envoy from Panyang came to report the day before yesterday, saying that the eldest prince of Panyang died suddenly in the bubble pool.
The reasons for this are well known.
Because the summer festival was approaching, Zhou Zirong couldn't just rush to the East China Sea in such a hurry, he sent an order to step up the patrol in the East China Sea, and spent several days in the palace to sort out the information on Panyang.
Until the spies came to report that two members of the Jiang family had died, and the time, place and method of death were different—but the death was too inappropriate.The empress got angry and directly imposed a palace ban. Before the grand ceremony, all officials other than the royal family were forced to return home for vacation.
In this way, who is in the best interest?
Zhou Zirong's heart tightened, and he wanted to go to the East Palace to have a look, but suddenly remembered that he should also be the one who was forced to "retire".
This method is really effective, but it is also really too ruthless.
Yuan Li has already withdrawn, but there are still a few of his eyes in the forbidden army.
As soon as he thought of this, he hurriedly pulled out a few sheets of paper from the drawer, and was about to write, but when the pen stopped on the paper, he suddenly felt that there was nothing to write.
There is nothing wrong with Dong Sheng doing this, at least in this game.
It's just that Zhou Zirong can't adapt to it yet.
The ink smeared a large ink blot on the paper, he was silent for a while, and finally put down the pen.
Nothing bad either.
Zhou Zirong thought so, but the look in his eyes became darker and darker, and a sense of powerlessness spread from his heart to his limbs.He couldn't help asking himself in his heart, what the hell am I doing? How could this child who grew up under his nose be forced to come to this point?
Those two people can be regarded as their acquaintances, and they have never violated the river water, and have no enmity or grudge.
He sat in that chair all night, his eyes wide open, and he was finally pulled back by the noise of the morning.
The long sheng music was faintly heard, and the main street was full of people.
It's summer festival.
