Narada world

Chapter 14

In troubled times, troubles come one after another.The Ji Dynasty, which was originally peaceful, is secretly turbulent.Since Qin Junlan ascended the throne, there have been many forces ready to move.

The first emperor had many sons, and the four sons had only one princess, but he became the heir to the throne.If it wasn't for Yiqing Huan's domination of the harem, the prime minister Yi Hongchuan's secret communication with the court, the academicians lobbying the officials, and the Bai family's military force to suppress, there would be no Qin Junlan today.

It's just that after being loyal to the emperor for many years, some people still fulfill their duties, while others have a different heart.Although Qin Junlan was suspicious, it was not groundless.At this moment, visiting the prime minister's mansion at night just gave her a hint that there are some unknown secrets hidden there.

The missing 8 taels of tribute silver has disappeared, and it may have been melted and recast.On the day of being robbed, the guards clearly stated that there were only five thieves, and they took away a box at random, but only 2 taels.

"Your Majesty, there was a discrepancy in the amount of silver taels when the Ministry of Accounts collected them. It's just that they didn't think about the amount stolen by the robbers at that time. Now that they were short of silver taels before they were put into the warehouse, it's a pity that there is no proof, otherwise we will be able to follow the vine." Ji Qiuchen reluctantly waved his sleeves.

"There is no perfect modus operandi in the world. The Grand Scholar continues to investigate secretly, and must not let a trace of clues go."

"The old minister obeys the order."

Qin Junlan didn't believe that such a heavy silver would disappear.

On the fourth watch, before dawn, Liyue washed and put on makeup for Qin Junlan, and the four maids changed the dragon clothes for her. Every corner and pattern must be smoothed out without any wrinkles.

"Why hasn't the shadow guard come back?"

"The slave has sent someone to meet her, and it's time to come back."

After a while, the three shadow guards sent out finally returned, but they all had heavy responsibilities.Qin Junlan sent the left and right back, leaving only Liyue.

"What's going on? Are you still hurt?" Li Yue at this moment is very handsome, with the aura of a female official.

"Returning to Your Majesty, my subordinate found out that the Prime Minister's Mansion is heavily guarded. I wanted to sneak in quietly and then return, but I didn't expect to be attacked by hidden guards."

"You mean that there are hidden guards in the prime minister's mansion?" Qin Junlan thought, she hadn't set foot in the prime minister's mansion for a long time, and it seemed that there were too few places she could see.

"Exactly, unlike ordinary sergeants, those two men are very skilled, their subordinates are incompetent, they are not their opponents, they struggled for a long time before they were able to get away, ahem." The shadow guard was originally a master of the Ouchi, trained by Li Ruoliyue himself.

Li Ruo comes from Jianghu, although he is not at the pinnacle, his unfeeling swordsmanship can still stand alone in the world.Li Yue's chivalrous shadow tracking skills are also superb, and every member of the shadow guard, whether it is light work or swordsmanship, is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"Can you tell what sect it is from?"

"The subordinate is stupid, the other party deliberately concealed his true identity, otherwise we might die and return to the palace."

"Has there been any news?"

"The prime minister's mansion is heavily guarded, it is the place where the prime minister handles government affairs, and the prime minister has already returned to the mansion from the state of Luo."

"I really will come back at a certain time, let's go down to recuperate." Qin Junlan waved her hand, hoping that her uncle would do her part, at least not to embarrass the Queen Mother.

It was still early, and all the officials of the court came to the palace one after another to wait for you.Qin Junlan is wearing a red-bottomed yellow-patterned dragon robe today, entwined with gold threads, and flying dragons in the sky, lifelike.The eyebrows are just blooming, and the corners of the eyes are hooked up, which is extraordinarily enchanting but still has the demeanor of an empress.

"Liyue, the police sent the supplements and medicines to Suyuan Building."

After leaving these words, Qin Junlan stepped forward, approaching the dragon chair one by one, and all the officials paid homage.Wearing a general's court uniform, Bai Yifei was very mighty. He reported the situation of the border town to the emperor with formal debriefing etiquette.

"Fengcheng faces Zhengyi, the capital city of Yuguo, and a hundred thousand red armor troops are stationed to show off our country's prestige. It's just that Fengcheng originally belonged to Yuguo. In recent years, they have been eager to move. , My minister, please allow your majesty to kill chickens to scare monkeys." Bai Yifei tolerated it for a long time, if it wasn't for the covenant between the two countries, he would have killed those Yu Kingdom spies.

Qin Junlan's expression was solemn and expressionless, after listening to Bai Yifei's report, he remained silent.

"What do you guys think?"

She doesn't express her heart easily, she always listens to the words of the officials first, observes the words and observes the situation, so as to grasp the situation in the court.

"The old minister seconded the proposal." Ji Qiuchen walked out, bowing his hands, standard court etiquette, neither humble nor overbearing, "Yu Guo has committed a heinous crime by placing spy workers in the palace, and there are still spy workers who have not been caught, and his intentions can be seen."

"The bachelor also supports teaching Yu Guo a lesson?"

"Exactly, if you violate our territory, you will be killed without pardon!" Ji Qiuchen was filled with righteous indignation. People who are loyal to the emperor and patriotic can never tolerate the territory being coveted by other countries.

"What does the prime minister think?" The situation in the court was clear, and if the prime minister didn't speak, no one would dare to reveal his feelings easily.

"The minister seconded the proposal." Yi Hongchuan's mind was not above the court at all.He was very disturbed when two people broke into his mansion in recent days.

"Okay, I have exactly the same intention. Bai Yifei listened to the decree. Fengcheng is the territory of the Ji Dynasty. All the soldiers from other countries will step into it one by one, and the corpses will be divided into five horses. They will hang their heads on the top of the city as a warning to others!"

"Minister obeys the decree!" After finally waiting for this imperial decree, Bai Yifei was finally able to let go of his hands and feet and teach Yu Guo a lesson.

"Anything else to report?"

"Qizou Your Majesty, the crops in Yuzhou are failing again, the farmland is dry, and the people are in dire straits. The local officials are here to ask the imperial court to allocate funds for disaster relief."

Qin Junlan glanced at all the officials, "One hundred thousand people in Yuzhou have been affected by the disaster for several years, and the local officials have no solution? The imperial court has allocated funds many times, and it is not a long-term solution. The officials sent out are also helpless. I have a good idea."

"Man-made disasters can be solved, but this natural disaster is really..."

"I don't believe that there will be unsolvable things in the world. Within three days, officials above the third rank will each present a set of solutions."

"I will obey your orders!"

Qin Junlan saw that Yi Hongchuan was very quiet today.The mission to Luo State went well, but when he returned to the mansion, he found that he had encountered thieves twice. Yi Hongchuan had to wonder if it was Qin Junlan who did it. He sent him to Luo State first, and then sent someone to spy on the prime minister's mansion.

Although they are blood relatives, the gap between the monarch and his ministers is getting bigger and bigger after all.

"Prime Minister, I heard that there are assassins in the mansion, who was hurt and what was lost?" Qin Junlan asked intentionally.

"The old minister is doing his best to investigate. Your Majesty is taking care of everything, so don't worry."

"It's a great fortune for the country to be sympathetic to the prime minister." Qin Junlan smiled at the corner of his mouth and looked at Yi Shuchuan meaningfully. The monarch and his subjects maintained a peaceful appearance, but each had their own concerns.

After coming down to court, Qin Junlan hurried to Fengqing Palace, and heard that Bai Ruoxi had made trouble with the Queen Mother again.

After Bai Yifei finished his duty report, he had to return to the station. One hundred thousand Red Armored Army could not be leaderless.Bai Ruoxi refused, she finally took the opportunity to sneak back to Jidu, how could she go back obediently.

Fengcheng is far away, and it takes six days to go back and forth. She stays in that small place all day, and most of the contacts are military sergeants, which is really boring.

Qin Junlan couldn't bear it, Bai Ruoxi was in her prime and was about to get married, so it might not be a bad thing for her to stay in Jidu to find a good family.

What's more, as long as Bai Ruoxi is around, there will always be laughter. She is like a little sun, illuminating the whole world.

It's just that she was too worried about Hong Yuan's wind and cold, and she received her palm again.Every time she thinks of this, she blames herself even more, and even wonders if she is too suspicious to be like this.

She wanted to go out to visit the palace, but she was caught up in the famine in Yuzhou. She had to come up with a countermeasure. In the country under her jurisdiction, it was absolutely impossible for the victims to starve to death and the place to be devastated.

At noon, the Suyuan building had not yet opened, and it was always quiet during the day.Hong Yuan sits in the □□garden, holding a zither in her hand.

The slender fingers are fragrant and the strings are flying, and the voice is tender and tender.

Looking for a bosom friend in the high mountains and flowing waters, who will get drunk with the beautiful music.

This timbre is mesmerizing and intoxicating, with slender fingertips on the thirteen strings, conveying the deep hatred.The melody of the red kite is sad, and the jade pot is sad, and the listener is heartbroken.

Ye Ming stood in the distance, staring at her obsessively.She hadn't recovered from the cold poison, but she was as sick as a flower. Her slender fingertips plucked the strings lightly, but her eyes were as dim as water.

She was seriously injured, but she didn't talk about the pain. She had something on her mind, and she never said it to others.Ye Mingduo hoped that there would be someone who could accompany her by her side, who would play the piano and play in harmony with her, and hold hands with her.

Originally, he had no distractions, but his heart was disturbed by one person.Hong Yuan looked at the medicine bowl on the table, the medicine arrived before Qin Junlan arrived.They are all rare treasures in the world. She wanted to send someone down, but Qin Junlan would not know about them anyway, but she couldn't bear it, so she let the hibiscus boil and send them over.

A moment of distraction made her feel pain from her fingertips, the string stopped, and a bright red dripped.

"Come out!" Hong Yuan's face changed slightly, and a red figure leaped down. Ye Ming raised his sword and came up, only to relax his vigilance when he saw clearly.

The man was wearing a fluttering red dress, with hair hanging down the sides, and the hair was simply tied up but without a bun. He was clearly a man, but he was born delicate and beautiful, and looked like a woman.

"Lin Wuming, what are you doing here at Suyuan Building instead of accompanying the sect master in Yuguo?" Ye Ming put away his sword.

"Ouch, little leaf, you're seriously hurt." Lin Wuming's voice was like a swallow, and it was as sharp as a woman's.He has light makeup, brown eyes like monsters, but a face like Pan An. He is a well-known handsome man in Yu Country. It is rumored that he is the male favorite of the head of Shuramen.

"If you have something to say, get out!" Hong Yuan had always been indifferent to him, the two were out of tune, and never had a good face when they met, but Lin Wuming was naturally good-tempered and never took it to heart.

Maybe he feels that he is favored by the sect master and has an extraordinary status.

"Xun'er is still stabbing people like this when he's injured, you have to take care of yourself." He smiled charmingly on his face.Seeing how sissy he is, Ye Ming clenched his fists and stepped back a few feet, fearing that he would not be able to control himself, he slapped him. He really couldn't bear his unmasculine appearance.

"Ye Ming, see off the guests." Hong Yuan didn't want to talk to Lin Wuming, so she turned around and wanted to leave.

"The master will see you." Lin Wu took a step forward, Hongyuan raised her cold eyes slightly, and the corners of her mouth opened into an inconspicuous arc.

"Understood." She still remained calm, no matter how turbulent her heart was, she hid it in her heart.

"It's over, you should go." Ye Ming ordered to evict the guest, Lin Wuming was not angry, he flicked his sleeves and flew away.

After all, she came, Hong Yuan coughed lightly twice, stroking the iris on her shoulder with her fingers, full of thoughts.

"Lord, the medicine is cold." Ye Ming brought the medicine bowl to her, and she raised her hand to take it, looking deeply at Qin Junlan's heart, suddenly sneered, and smashed the medicine bowl to pieces.

Even Ye Ming could clearly feel the suppressed anger and melancholy.For some reason, when the sect master came, she would be in such an abnormal mood.
