The wind is blowing

"Your Highness Prince Jing, do you mean that you would rather believe the words of a group of mountain peasants who came out of nowhere than Wei Zheng is the person arrested by Xuan Jing Division?"

"Xia Shouzun is worrying too much. It's not that I don't believe in Xuan Jingsi, it's just that I feel a little strange. Although the mountain and field peasants you mentioned have no official position, they still have a lot of status and words in the world. People with power. People won't suddenly wrong Xia Shouzun for arresting their young master for no reason."

Xia Jiang felt as if he had guessed Xiao Jingyan's intentions, but he didn't realize that since Xiao Jingyan spoke, he had lost the initial initiative and could only be passively led by the nose.

"I thought who it was. It turned out that His Highness Prince Jing met someone from Yaowanggu. Just now I have explained to His Majesty that the Meiling battlefield was chaotic back then, and one or two of the main culprit generals did not find their bodies. And this Wei Zheng is one of them, he has deceived many people by pretending to be the owner of the Valley of the Medicine Kings these years, fortunately Xuan Jingsi has never slacked off for many years, after 13 years, he finally found and caught him."

"Does Xia Shouzun think that I don't know what the battlefield is like? Not to mention that there are unrecognizable corpses everywhere on the battlefield. Besides, if the traitor you are talking about is really Wei Zheng, He has been hiding for more than ten years without you being able to find out, and he was suddenly caught by you recently, so his luck is really bad."

Seeing that Xiao Jingyan bit the man to death without oil and salt, Xia Jiang felt like he had hit the cotton with his fist and had nowhere to go.

"Okay, stop arguing. Back off, all back off..."

When Emperor Liang saw that they still wanted to continue arguing endlessly, the old emperor who had passed his ears suddenly felt disturbed.

"Yes, Erchen retire."

Among those who obeyed the order, Xiao Jingyan was the most straightforward.Although it seems that he has not gained any benefits from this argument, his goal has actually been achieved.

His father is suspicious by nature, once the seed of doubt is planted, as long as there is any slight disturbance in the future, the seed will quickly take root in his heart.

Regarding this situation, King Yu was actually a little disappointed. He wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Xia Jiang's eyes, so he had to endure it, saluted and exited with everyone.

Outside the hall, Xiao Jingyan sullenly walked away without looking at them.King Yu had played peaceful Tai Chi Kungfu for many years when he was fighting with the prince, but he was very uncomfortable with the cold and hard style of his new opponent. It took him a long time before he stomped his feet and turned around:

"Xia Shouzun, look at him..."

"Your Highness, please be patient. Although His Highness King Jing desperately denied that the traitor was Wei Zheng today, it also shows that he is serious about this matter. Your Highness can just look down."

Xia Jiang simply answered him a few words, then left after cupping his hands.

Just a moment after the three of them left, the emperor's chariot had arrived at the gate of Zhiluo Palace, and Gao Zhan carefully helped Emperor Liang out.

In the past few months, Emperor Liang's feet suffered from foot wind disease, and he was often in pain. The medicine prescribed by the imperial physician did not have much effect, but the medicinal bath and foot steaming therapy prepared by Concubine Jing could relieve the symptoms.

Concubine Jing certainly didn't know about the turmoil just now, but even if she knew, it's hard to say that her calm and peaceful attitude would change because of it.After receiving the driver into the palace, she didn't say a word except what she should say about etiquette, and was busy serving Emperor Liang as usual.

About half an hour later, after the steam treatment was over, Concubine Jing began to massage Emperor Liang's legs.While he was busy, Emperor Liang suddenly leaned forward and grabbed Concubine Jing's wrist, pulled her in front of him, and called her.

Concubine Jing was pulled over by him obediently, without any strange expression on her face.

"What's your majesty's order?"

"Tell me, what do you think of the Chi Yan case back then?"

Concubine Jing's eyes, which were usually as peaceful as water, rarely rippled at this sudden question, and she asked with some hesitation:

"Why does Your Majesty ask this..."

"You just answer me. What do you think, I want to listen to the truth."

Concubine Jing slowly put away the hand that was beating her leg, took a step back and knelt down, bowed her head and said:

"Your Majesty asks a question, and my concubine dare not not answer. It's just that no matter how the concubine answers, it will inevitably make His Majesty sad, so I apologize first, please forgive me."

Emperor Liang was touched slightly, sat up and asked:

"how do I say this?"

"The concubine was born in the Lin family and had a close relationship with the old concubine Chen. Your majesty knew it long ago. If the concubine made a bad comment, wouldn't your majesty feel that the concubine Chen has no close friends in her life and no memory of her death? But the case of Chiyan is up to your majesty." To deal with it personally, with your sageness, the purpose must be to stabilize the court. If the concubine cares about the private relationship with the concubine Chen and excuses the people in Chiyan, His Majesty will inevitably think that the concubine does not understand your painstaking efforts to stabilize the overall situation... The concubine is just a little concubine in the deep palace, no matter how you think about the Chiyan case, it is a trivial matter, but if your majesty is sad because of the concubine's answer, it is a big sin for the concubine , so my concubine is bold, please forgive me first."

Regarding Concubine Chen Lin Leyao, in fact, Emperor Liang himself has often secretly thought about it these years, so Concubine Jing mentioned her old relationship with her, which hit the softest part of Emperor Liang's heart. Not only did he not get angry because of it, but he felt sympathetic In agreement, he sighed:

"Forget it, you are as gentle and kind as Concubine Chen, so I won't embarrass you anymore. Don't I understand you when you are by my side? In the final analysis, you are different from Concubine Yue, and you should not be involved in matters outside the palace. , It's just... so many years have passed, and now the only person in this palace who dares to chat with me about Concubine Chen is you."

Emperor Liang stroked the back of Concubine Jing's hand and said with emotion:

"You entered the palace less than a year after Jing Yu was born. Of course you know how good I am to their mother and child... I saw Yan Que at the palace sacrifice the day before yesterday, and he rarely appears in front of me throughout the year. I forgot, but after meeting the day before yesterday, I realized that there are some things that I can never forget..."

"The concubine is wondering why His Majesty is so emotional today. It turns out that it is because of meeting Yanhou..."

"That's not true. The reason why I remembered these things is because Xia Jiang entered the palace today and told me that he had caught a Chiyan traitor who slipped through the net..."

Concubine Jing was taken aback, she almost used all her strength to control the hand she was holding from shaking, but her face couldn't help changing, she hurriedly lowered her head, calmed down, and said for a long time:

"It's been more than ten years... I don't know which traitor it is?"

"You don't know him. It was Xiao Shu...uh... a lieutenant general in the Red Feather Battalion back then. His name was Wei Zheng."

Only then did Concubine Jing calm down, she let out a deep breath, and said:

"How could it be? Didn't the case report back then say that the entire army of the Chibane Battalion was wiped out by fire, so there should be no survivors?"

"You and Jingyan are worthy of being mother and son. He also meant the same thing today, and because of this, he had a big fight with Xia Jiang, saying that Xia Jiang must have arrested the wrong person."

Concubine Jing heard that Emperor Liang's words didn't mean to be angry or dissatisfied, she felt a little relieved, but stated regardless of whether she was busy:

"Your Majesty knows that this kid Jingyan is too straightforward, and he will only keep turning his horns in the direction he thinks, so it is necessary for His Majesty to remind him from time to time to help him grasp the direction."

Concubine Jing's words made Emperor Liang feel more at ease, and he patted her hand to reassure her.

After talking with Concubine Jing for a while, Emperor Liang felt sleepy, so he moved to the bed to sleep peacefully.Concubine Jing put down the gauze curtain, changed the incense in the stove, and just sat down, the worry that had just been suppressed rose in her heart.

There is a saying that knowing a son is like a mother, Concubine Jing can't understand Xiao Jingyan's temperament very well.Although she is not familiar with Wei Zheng, Concubine Jing also knows that Jingyan will never sit idly by because of his status as the deputy general of the Chiyu Battalion.

But what to do... No matter what Jingyan does, with the Chiyan case still hopeless, any action will only make Emperor Liang feel dissatisfied, let alone successfully rescue him.

Now I can only hope that he can have a good discussion with that child Xiaoshu after he returns, and think of a perfect plan.
