Chapter 281
Ever since King Cheng's daughter, Princess Jiulian made a mistake at the imperial concubine's flower viewing banquet, King Cheng went to Zhennanhou's mansion to make amends, but was also turned away.

Cheng Wang, who was already in jeopardy and was about to be squeezed out of the elite circle, was left in the cold even more.Not to mention the guests, even the birds are unwilling to land in this mansion.

Tonight, the master of Jiulian County lost his temper again, beating the slaves in a yard until they cried and howled, and just stopped.A foreign visitor came to the door, and King Cheng looked at the person in front of him in surprise and fear.Mr. Liu, the most trusted guest in Prime Minister Su's mansion.

Even a down-and-out prince like him knows this person.

It is said that the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's gate, then this Mr. Liu is equivalent to a third-rank Dayuan.

Now, he is sitting in his study, coming in the dark.Even if he thought with his toes, he knew that something big must happen.

"Well, Mr. Liu, but what is Xiangye's order?"

Mr. Liu has a beard, and his eyes are not big, but they are shining brightly.

"Your Highness is being polite. The Prime Minister has always said that His Highness is the most generous and wise person in the royal family. Today Liu took the liberty to visit and disturbed His peace. I hope His Highness will not blame you."

"Mr. Liu, you are a person whom the Prime Minister relies heavily on, so no one knows your name. But this king has always ignored the world, so I really can't think of anything to bother you."

King Cheng was not only unhappy when he heard the other party's flattery, but even more disturbed.

Mr. Liu understood clearly, and he was not polite, and got straight to the point.

Cheng Wang's eyes widened as he listened, and finally wished he could cover his ears.

"This... this, Mr. Liu, I am not feeling well today, dizzy, and I didn't hear anything. Tomorrow, no, I will be bedridden at home for the next month to recuperate..."

"My lord!" Mr. Liu put away the smile on his face, tapped his fingers on the table, and his expression changed into a gloomy expression, "I heard the words in your ears, so it's a bit late to say you're unwell now?"

Cheng Wang cursed inwardly, his guts were turning green with regret, he knew that he would hear such a horrific thing tonight, even if he drank medicine and feigned death, he would not be able to see this person.

But what to do now, it's hard to get off the tiger.

"Sir, please forgive me. Sir, I know that this king is a good-for-nothing. If you can't play martial arts, you can't do it. It's okay to eat and die. This king is really afraid... that the arrangement of the prime minister will be ruined. Don't worry, sir. This king must completely forget what happened today, and will never reveal a word to others."

King Cheng clasped his hands together, begging his grandpa to sue his grandma, he was really cowardly.Where is the noble appearance of the royal blood, it is not even as good as the country rich man.

Mr. Liu was contemptuous in his heart, but smiled again on his face.

"My lord, don't underestimate yourself. The Prime Minister is wise. Since he has his eyes on the lord, he naturally believes in his ability. Besides, even if the lord doesn't believe in the lord, he always has to plan for himself. The palace is already in great trouble, and it might be ransacked and beheaded. The prince is still going his own way in this matter, I am afraid that it will be too late to regret it in the future."

"No, it's impossible, my king has always..."

King Cheng was so frightened that his face turned blue, and he wanted to refute a few words, but he still lacked confidence.

"Does the lord know how well His Royal Highness treats that woman? I heard that the woman has never left His Royal Highness's arms since she had a fever. His Royal Highness was so angry that His Majesty the Emperor vomited blood, and she never gave in. If the Crown Prince ascends the throne, this The woman won the second place. The persecution of Princess Jiulian at the flower viewing banquet that day may be the first one in Chengwang's mansion to be liquidated. It will end well if the family is raided and beheaded, maybe there are more insidious methods."

Mr. Liu spoke in a leisurely, unhurried manner, but what he said was that King Cheng was sweating profusely.

"Sir, save me, what should I do, what should I do?"

Mr. Liu smiled faintly, "My lord, Mr. Liu has pointed out the way for you a long time ago. You just need to follow Xiangye's instructions. After the matter is completed, the lord will be a dragon. Chengwang's mansion will definitely regain its former glory. In addition, Xiangye Grandpa's eldest grandson, who is about the same age as Princess Jiulian, has a good-looking talent, both civil and military..."

That's all for the rest, Cheng Wang's eyes finally lit up when he heard the prime minister's eldest grandson.

How could my son be a hero if I was a coward.

King Cheng gave birth to four concubine sons and concubine sons, but it is a pity that all of them are good at eating, drinking and having fun. When it comes to studying and practicing martial arts, every time they have headaches and butt pains, none of them can stand up.On the other hand, Jiulian, although she has a bit of a temper, is more successful than her brothers.It is impossible to say that in the future, the palace will be supported by this girl.

If the big event is achieved, the Su family must be extremely prosperous, then as the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law Jiu Lian, as the in-laws and the royal family's dual identities...

King Cheng gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, "Cheng, this matter... this king has agreed. I have to trouble you, sir, and talk to this king about how to proceed."

"It's natural," Mr. Liu smiled finally, but his contempt remained in his heart.If the eldest princess hadn't been too loyal, she wouldn't have found this coward.

However, regardless of the size of the chess pieces, they can also have unexpected functions when used at critical moments!
Although Kyoto is big, it can't stand the crowds, and there are not many eyeliners for any high-ranking family.The prime minister's mansion, Weiyuanhou's mansion, Cheng Wang's mansion, and half of the mansions of the first and second-rank officials came in and out like this, and naturally they would fall into the eyes of those who cared.

In Zhennan Hou's Mansion, Mrs. Tie stood in front of the window wearing a thin jacket. The night wind was cold, and Mother Dao was worried, so she persuaded, "Ma'am, let's rest and be careful of the wind and cold. At this time, Miss is still waiting for your support." , if you fall ill, I am afraid that the young lady will be even more dangerous."

How could Mrs. Tie not know this truth, but she always felt uneasy.So he ordered, "Forget it, I'd better invite Lord Hou to come over."

Mother Dao didn't dare to stop her, so she hurried to send a message, and Tie Wushuang rushed over soon.

A candle as thick as an arm was lit in the hall, which naturally reflected Tie Wushuang's frowning clearly.

Mrs. Tie asked directly, "But there is news from the palace? Has Xiaomi's condition worsened?"

Tie Wushuang shook his head, thought for a while and said truthfully, "Mother, there is news from the palace. It seems that Xiaomi is... a holy girl of the Fire Worship Cult. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wanted to save Xiaomi, but His Majesty the Emperor rejected it. There was a rift between father and son, Your Majesty the Emperor. .He vomited blood and fell into a coma!"

"what?"

Mrs. Tie turned pale with shock, others didn't know, but she knew all too well about the Emperor and the Zoroastrianism.Back then, she was about the same age as the queen, she practiced martial arts, and the queen loved writing. They met by chance and became handkerchief lovers.Even after she found out her identity later, she often went to the palace to chat.

Later, Lord Hou died in battle, and she went to the southwest, where she heard that the queen had died of a sudden illness. Because she was guarding one side, she couldn't easily return to Beijing, and she was very sad for a while.

Over the years, with the accumulation of clues and the emperor's subtle influence to drive away the Zoroastrianism, how could she not have guessed that the Queen's death was related to the Zoroastrianism.

Today, Xiaomi's status is so amazing that he is almost the enemy of the prince and the emperor.

And the prince is like this, still wants to save Xiaomi's life, which shows the deep affection.

Tie Wushuang obviously thought of this too, and Danfeng's eyes were a bit complicated and difficult to describe, "The flower viewing feast that day, Xiaomi was so decisive, if I knew that the crown prince treats her like this, I'm afraid I'd be happy. It's a pity..."

"It's God's will to trick people!"

Mrs. Tie also sighed, walked around the ground with her hands behind her back, and asked again, "Apart from this news, is there anything else?"

"Mother is so wise! How did you guess that the capital is a little unstable? The prime minister's mansion came in and out tonight, and the back door was never closed. Someone in the palace also came out to deliver letters. I don't know what this old fox is plotting. It stands to reason that even the emperor and the prince Even if he is born, he will not shake the position of the crown prince. What is the purpose of the Su family like this?

Tie Wushuang poured himself a cup of tea and drank it down, his two dark brows frowned together, a little annoyed.

"Mother, I will enter the palace early tomorrow morning and bring Xiaomi back. No matter what, she is in the palace. If something happens, we will be beyond our reach."

"No, I'll go in person, even if the crown prince won't let her go, I'll live in the palace and take care of Xiaomi. This girl... really has a hard life, if she falls into the hands of the Fire Worship Cult, I'm afraid she really won't survive."

Mrs. Tie gritted her teeth, glanced at Tie Wushuang who was full of doubts, and said in a low voice, "You don't know, the saint of Zoroastrianism is going to marry the leader, and the current leader is Xiaomi's...uncle!"

"what?"

Xiaomi has just reached the age of Ji, and the leader of the Zoroastrian Cult is over forty years old, and the blood relationship...

"Beasts are worse!"

Tie Wushuang slapped the red pine table almost to pieces, "I'll make arrangements now, and I will accompany my mother into the palace tomorrow. No matter what, I must take Xiaomi back!"

As he spoke, he was about to go out.In the end, it was Madam Tie who was careful, and followed up with orders, "Someone send a letter to Xiaozhuang, tell the truth."

"Okay, mother."

In the small village outside the city, the sky has completely collapsed since the moment Xiaomi fell.

Although Li Wuye came back from the city with news, Chen Xin rushed over in the evening.

But even if they are all-powerful, they can't find out about the inner courtyard of the palace.

Can only burn down the house in a hurry, turning around.

Cuilan simply held a statue of Guanyin, offered incense directly, and kowtowed non-stop.

Li Wuye, who had always only believed in spirits and large pieces of meat, also kowtowed, hoping that Xiaomi would survive the catastrophe safely.

"Fifth Master, do you want to send a message to the family? In case something happens to Xiaomi..." Jiang Dali rubbed his hands and almost pushed the bluestone floor out of the pothole. The more he thought about it, the more panicked he became, but Cui Lan glared fiercely, "Bah, bah! What nonsense, Xiaomi is a blessed person, and he will surely turn disaster into auspiciousness and turn disaster into good luck."

Jiang Dali was humiliated by his wife, and he wasn't annoyed at all. Instead, he sighed, "I'm also thinking about Xiaomi, and we can't help you at this time."

Li Wuye was smoking dry cigarettes desperately, choking and coughing non-stop, and finally said, "At this time, it is too late to send a letter home. If the letter arrives and Xiaomi recovers, it is not a false alarm. In my opinion, we can only Wait, wait for the third son to pass the exam. It is justifiable for him to come forward and enter the palace.

After finishing speaking, he looked at Chen Xin and said, "How does Shopkeeper Chen feel?"

Chen Xin had no choice but to say, "Fifth Lord is right, this is the only way to go now. I will guard the examination room tomorrow, and as soon as the third child comes out, I will explain it to him. In addition, Zhennanhou Mansion I'm afraid I know the situation better than we do, so I'll go there tomorrow and ask a few more questions."

"Okay, then you will be tired."

"My family, fifth master, don't be too polite, Xiaomi is just like my sister. Besides, it's a mess of business, and she needs to make up her mind."
