Feng Gouqing, after abandoning, walk alone in the world

Chapter 426 Old Fox

Since the palace banquet, Ji Xun has never summoned any vassal kings, nor has there been any decree, and there has not even been any rumors about when he will ascend the throne, which makes the vassal kings who have been living in the posthouse a little panicked.

Although during Yun Wansheng's reign, many vassal kings had thought about raising troops and establishing their own imperial court, but the current ruler is Ji Xun, who is not only the purest descendant of the royal family, but also the emperor's decree. The prince also has the jade seal in his hand. If these vassal kings raise troops, they will only be stigmatized as rebels. It is difficult for one side to respond to the support of all parties.

But what makes the feudal lords most disturbed is that they stay in Beijing for too long. They are afraid that their heirs and cronies will bring troops to the rescue as agreed, and they believe that Ji Xun will know when the soldiers and horses leave. There is no way out.

Among the vassal kings, King Qin Nan was the most stable, spending more than half of his time at his desk practicing calligraphy and painting every day.

"My lord, there is news from the eldest son." The guard stood at the door of the study and reported in a low voice.

King Qin Nan frowned, looked at the copybook that was shapeless due to the nib of the pen, and threw the wolf hair on the table. Anger flashed in his eyes, but was quickly suppressed by King Qin Nan, and he sat down slowly and took a sip of tea. Only then did he say: "Send it in."

The personal guard lowered his head and raised his hands above his head, and brought a small bamboo tube in front of King Qin Nan. After King Qin Nan reached out to take it away, he immediately bowed and backed away without daring to delay at all.

After reading the news sent by Ji Yun, King Qin Nan frowned. He immediately took out the torch and lit the candle. He lit the note and threw it into the copper basin by his feet. Said: "Prepare the carriage, the king is going out for a walk."

Although King Qin Nan's voice was soft, his confidantes knew that the master would not be free to go out for a stroll at this time, so he hurriedly took orders to prepare for his departure, and the guards who stood guard in the dark immediately sent a signal for the guards on the outside to prepare to follow .

At the moment, Su Mianyue is tasting wine in the garden of the Right Prime Minister Wei's mansion. Those so-called famous ladies reciting poems against each other make her feel extremely boring, but Ji Xun needs to win over a faction now, so the Right Prime Minister is the best choice. From the day Yuan Zijing designed Su Mianyue, she was doomed to end up with the opposite party.

"Miss Su is a good drinker, don't you mind if Baojuan bothers you for a while?" Although Wei Baojuan was asking, she was already sitting opposite Su Mianyue, and said in a low voice, "Actually, I don't like poetry and songs. It's really boring to have fun just like this, if I can, I'd rather be born as a general, and see those little sisters with swords riding horses in Kyoto, don't mention how envious they are."

Su Mianyue smiled and did not respond, since Wei Baojuan must have something to say when she came to her, and Wei Baojuan is not the kind of woman with deep thoughts, so she must not be able to hide her words.

Glancing at Su Mianyue from the corner of the eye, Wei Baojuan rubbed the brocade handkerchief in her hand, turned to look at Su Mianyue and said, "Miss Su must also be a straightforward person, and Baojuan doesn't want to play tricks, just want to ask Miss Su, Really don't want to take revenge for the Zhengyang Tower incident? Even an outsider like me can't help being angry for a few days after hearing the news."

Still smiling, Su Mianyue said lazily, "I didn't open Zhengyang Tower, so what kind of revenge did I take?"

"There are no outsiders here, and Ms. Su doesn't have to play tricks with me. No one in Beijing officials knows about Yuan Zijing's plan to frame Ms. Su. Is this what Ms. Su intends to do?" Wei Baojuan asked more bluntly, without giving Su Mian Opportunity to play sloppy.

With a low sigh, Su Mianyue looked away from the beauties, put down the wine cup and looked at Wei Baojuan seriously for a while, Wei Baojuan looked very uncomfortable, thinking that there was something wrong with her appearance.

"Miss Baojuan, is today's banquet the intention of you and your sisters, or your father's intention? My patience is limited, and what I dislike the most is Tai Chi." Su Mianyue asked eagerly.

Wei Baojuan froze for a moment, and then said with flickering eyes: "Although the folk customs in Yan Country are open, my father doesn't want to meet Miss Su in private. Naturally, I invited Miss Su to enjoy the flowers."

"Really?" Su Mianyue raised her eyebrows and asked.

"Does Baojuan have a reason to lie to Miss Su?" Wei Baojuan frowned delicately, and there was a bit of girlish coquettishness on her baby-fat face, but it was a pity that Su Mianyue was not a man, so she didn't plan to buy it.

After flicking her belt, Su Mianyue stood up and said, "In that case, the flowers have already been admired, so I will leave."

Seeing that Su Mianyue really walked away after cupping her hands, Wei Baojuan stomped her feet anxiously, hurriedly took two steps to catch up and said, "Miss Su, please stay, can you talk?"

"Miss Baojuan, please lead the way." Su Mianyue didn't make any embarrassments, and just made a gesture of invitation.

Humming at Su Mianyue, Wei Baojuan didn't like the feeling of being restrained very much, so she walked ahead quickly and led Su Mianyue away from a corner gate in the garden.

And those ladies who were still admiring the flowers seemed to have not seen the two of them leave, no one looked this way, let alone discussed where they went.

After walking for nearly a stick of incense, Wei Baojuan stopped outside a courtyard and said to Su Mianyue, "Miss Su, please, Baojuan is waiting for Miss Su here."

Seeing Wei Baojuan walking away with flushed cheeks, Su Mianyue couldn't help lamenting that it was good for the ancients to have money and power. In such a house, if you want to see each other, you need to exercise. No wonder most of the ladies are slim.

Pushing open the courtyard door and walking in, Su Mianyue looked at this elegant small courtyard. It seemed that it did not match the rest of the Youxiang Mansion, but every decoration was carefully prepared, definitely better than those gorgeous and dazzling decorations. Much more expensive.

Su Mianyue walked directly to the most central room, except that no human presence was detected here, and the door of the flower hall was open, so Su Mianyue was not worried that there would be unsafe factors inside.

"Miss Su, forgive me. In order not to attract attention, I can only use this method to invite Miss Su to come over to the house." The right minister was dressed in casual clothes, which was very different from the powerful figure in the court, and his gray hair was even worse. showed his old age.

Su Mianyue bowed her hands to say hello, followed the gesture of the right minister and sat on the chair at the head of the guest seat. Before she could speak, she was startled by the right minister who suddenly lifted her robe and knelt in front of her.

"What's the meaning of the right minister?" Su Mianyue didn't get up, but used her internal force to move the chair a little to the side, barely avoiding the right minister's kneeling.

"Also ask Miss Su to save the nine clans of the Wei Mansion." The right minister said with his eyes flushed.

Frowning and looking at Prime Minister Right, Su Mianyue pondered for a while before asking, "What does Prime Minister Right mean? I'm just a commoner, how can I save your nine clans of the Wei family?"

The prime minister on the right sighed: "When that rebellious minister Yun Wansheng was in power, I didn't know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was still alive, so I accepted the invitation of King Qinnan to serve him in order to protect the Ji family from being taken away by traitors and thieves. But now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has returned safely, King Qin Nan still has the heart of disobedience, but I have no evidence to prove that King Qin Nan has the intention of treason. Once King Qin Nan raises his troops to rebel, I am afraid that I will be the first to be sacrificed It is not a pity for the people of the banner to die alone, but how many innocent people will be implicated in the nine clans?"

With a cold snort in her heart, Su Mianyue cursed secretly: Old fox, seeing that A Yu wanted to rely on you, he thought of betraying King Qin Nan. Why didn't you take action before?Knowing that you are a guilty minister, but you keep calling yourself an official, you really know your crime.

Rubbing her fingernails, Su Mianyue asked softly, "If Prime Minister Right has something to say, why don't you go directly to His Highness the Crown Prince? I'm just a woman and I can't manage the affairs of the court. Prime Minister Right may be asking the wrong person."

Intentionally emphasizing the word of begging, Su Mianyue got up and wanted to leave. Although the Prime Minister on the right didn't dare to touch Su Mianyue, he knelt in front of Su Mianyue and blocked her way. I dare not say that I have done nothing wrong, but the only thing I do not regret is that I have the Ji Dynasty in my heart. Miss Su is the closest person to His Royal Highness. At this moment, we can leave a way for innocent people to live."
