Chapter 179 Conspiracy
"There is such a thing!" Jin Liu turned to look at Qin Zhijian, but he didn't say a word, his face was as cold as ice.

"It is said that there is a lot of rumors about this matter in the capital. I am afraid it will not be fake. This king is afraid that my nephew will be kept in the dark before telling you." Prince Duan was secretly happy when he saw this, he was busy and angry Said: "The emperor has gone too far this time. Master Mingfei is his own aunt. Since the death of the concubine Xian, the wife has taken care of him. Now that he has entered into such a thing, if the common people Knowing that this matter is true, the hearts of the people will be in chaos. How can an emperor who disregards filial piety and righteousness make the people of the world submit to him, how can all the officials be loyal to him, let alone my nephew, you drive away the Huns for the sake of the emperor. Plague, how can the emperor forget all these things!"

"Enough!" As soon as Prince Duan finished speaking, Qin Zhijian stood up with a stern voice, looking straight at him, as if he wanted to eat him alive.

Seeing that Prince Duan's face turned pale with fright, Jin Liu hurriedly got up and pulled Qin Zhijian's sleeve. Qin Zhijian turned his head to look at her, and the resentment in his eyes slowly faded away, but his face was still ugly. Going to look at Prince Duan and cupping his hands, he said: "Uncle Wang, my nephew is rude. I suddenly heard that my mother passed away, and my nephew felt very sad, so I will not talk to Uncle Wang, please!" After finishing speaking, he turned around without waiting for Prince Duan to respond walked out.

"My lord..." Jin Liu called all over her body, but Qin Zhijian didn't turn her head back. She hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Prince Duan, she couldn't just leave him here, she smiled helplessly, and said, "Duan My lord, I'm really sorry, my lord..."

"This king understands, this king understands! No one can accept such a sudden news!" Prince Duan touched the cold sweat on his forehead, and pretended to be magnanimous and said that he wanted to make Qin Zhijian sad and angry. The more sad and angry he was, the faster he could achieve his goal. When he thought of Qin Zhijian's expression of hating the emperor when he heard what he said just now, Prince Duan was very happy, and even thoughtfully said to Jin Liu: " Ms. Jin San should hurry to see my nephew, he is young and easy to ignore, hey... the emperor is really too!" At the end, Prince Duan did not forget to blame the emperor.

Jin Liu had already learned about Prince Duan's purpose from Qin Zhijian, and did not accept his words, and sent him out respectfully, before going to Qin Zhijian's house.

Here Qin Zhijian went back to the house, and Jin Liu chased after him, naturally he was relieved and bluntly said nothing. Over there, Prince Duan had just left the Yang Mansion and was about to get into the sedan chair, but a beautiful girl chased him out of the Yang Mansion. He called out loudly to the prince.

Prince Duan turned his head when he heard the sound, and saw the girl standing on the steps. Although her hair was not long enough, the pink dress wrapped her precocious body, and she already had the embryonic form of a beauty, her eyes suddenly lit up.

Prince Duan's personal bodyguard Zhao Yuan stood on the other side of the sedan chair. Seeing that he didn't respond, he thought he was displeased, so he hurriedly shouted: "Who dares to stop our prince!"

The woman was not afraid, she smiled slightly, stood on the steps and saluted, and said: "Little girl, Jin Xingxi, I have something I want to tell the lord."

"you……"

"Hey!" Zhao Yuan didn't know who Jin Xingxi was, so he opened his mouth to scold him, but Prince Duan turned his head and glanced at him. He had already guessed her identity from Jin Xingxi's name, so naturally he couldn't neglect her, not to mention she was so beautiful. Free from vulgarity, he turned around again and with a smile on his face, he asked, "I wonder if there is anything you want to tell me, Miss?"

Jin Xingxi glanced left and right at the guards in front of the door, "Can you ask the prince to move to another place to talk?"

What a shrewd person Prince Duan is, seeing Jin Xingxi's face, he knew what she was going to say, smiled and nodded, and walked together with Jin Xingxi to a teahouse not far away without getting into the sedan chair.

The two asked for a private room in the teahouse, ordered a pot of tea and some snacks, sat down, and then listened to Jin Xingxi say: "Please don't whisper in front of people, the little girl's identity must be known by the prince, little girl." The woman also knows why the prince has repeatedly searched for the king of Zhenbei, but she is afraid that he will be disappointed!"

Prince Duan was taken aback. Although Qin Zhijian's intention to plot rebellion was obvious, it was not known to everyone. The little girl in front of him had a childish face, and she looked only thirteen or fourteen years old. , unexpectedly knew about this matter, and he couldn't help but make him a little vigilant. Since she knew whether Qin Zhijian would agree to his request, she must have a special relationship with Qin Zhijian, so she knew his plot. It's not surprising, it's just that he was full of confidence when he saw Qin Zhijian's performance before, but now he hesitated after hearing her say that, and tentatively asked in pretended surprise: "Oh? Why did the girl say that?"

Jin Xingxi talked about two things, one was Prince Duan's plot, and the other was Qin Zhijian's wishes. Prince Duan only asked why, but he didn't say what he was asking about, that is, he didn't admit or deny his plot in person. By the way, he also asked the answer he wanted.

How can Jin Xingxi understand the tact honed in the court, but she knows that the prince in front of her is not a man who is easy to plan. After thinking about the good things and following her original intention, she said sadly: "Please Forgive the little girl for nothing, but the little girl has heard what the prince and the king of Zhenbei said in the main hall before, to tell the truth, the little girl is a disciple of Master Mingfei, who once practiced in Shifei nunnery for 4 years. The next time I came to Fuyuan County, it was also a difficult mission, but I didn't expect that it would be the last time to see the capital."

"So that's how it is." Prince Duan responded falsely, nodded and said, in fact, he wasn't very interested in Jin Xingxi's identity.

Jin Xingxi noticed this, and was about to speak, when Xiaoer's voice sounded outside the door, she hurriedly shut up, and waited for Xiaoer to serve tea, turned around and went out to close the door, and then said: "The little girl has served the master for many years. , I also have some understanding of King Zhenbei's character, King Zhenbei is extremely filial, this time his master died tragically in the palace, King Zhenbei must be furious, and wants the emperor to pay for his blood..."

"This... seems to be a bit contradictory to what the girl said before!" Prince Duan picked up the tea bowl, scraped off the foam on the tea with the lid, and said unintentionally.

"My lord, please listen to the little girl." Jin Xingxi was not in a hurry, and said slowly: "It is good that the king of Zhenbei wants to seek justice for the master, but the lord's identity is sensitive and he has such a purpose. What you said in your mouth must be discounted in the ears of King Zhenbei. Even if you believe it five points, you must first find out the matter. If the little girl guessed correctly, the emperor will definitely call the prince back as soon as possible. If it is delayed until the prince returns to the capital, the king of Zhenbei has not made a decision, so the matter of the prince may be delayed."

Having said this, Jin Xingxi looked up at Lord Duan, only to see that he was still drinking tea unmoved, Jin Xingxi frowned involuntarily, thinking in his heart, this old fox, after hearing so much from her, has no attitude at all. He didn't show it, could it be that he was so sure that Qin Zhijian would turn against the emperor because of Mrs. Ming Fei's affairs? Although this was what she wanted, it was not what she wanted most!
Jin Xingxi hesitated for a moment, and decided not to reveal his old background. After all, he could only put himself in a passive state. After thinking about it, he said, "It's just that this is not because the little girl judged that the king of Zhenbei would not cooperate with the prince. The main reason." After finishing speaking, he stopped talking, and picked up the tea bowl to sip lightly.

Prince Duan was waiting for Jin Xingxi to say more, but she didn't say anything. He was a little disappointed, but he gave her a high look, pointed at the hibiscus cake on the table with a smile, and said, "Come on, this is Fuyuan. The county's most famous Furong cut cake, I don't know if Yang's mansion has it, but I like to eat it very much. These days, I eat a few pieces almost every day. It is soft and sweet, sweet but not greasy, golden Ms. Jin should try it too!" After Jin Xingxi took a bite of the hibiscus cut cake obediently, he smiled again and said, "It's delicious, the main reason Miss Jin said just now is..."

Prince Duan's question showed that he cared about whether King Zhenbei would cooperate with him, which also indirectly admitted the fact that he had rebelled. The handkerchief gently brushed off the cake crumbs on her hands, and said: "To tell you the truth, after the little girl came to Fuyuan County, she heard that the grandmother and the eldest lady were invited into the palace by the concubine Ning. The grandmother has always loved the third sister. Youjia, since the third sister came to Fuyuan County, she chanted scriptures and prayed for her at home every day, and the aunt is the biological mother of the third sister. After learning about this, the third sister was very anxious and clamored several times to return to Beijing. When the Northern King refused, she started a quarrel with the Zhenbei King."

"Is there such a thing?" Prince Duan said pretending to be surprised. In fact, he hadn't been to the Yang Mansion quite a few days ago. He naturally saw that there was some discord between Qin Zhijian and Jin Liu in those days, but he didn't expect it to be because of this. thing.

"Isn't it?" Jin Xingxi sighed, and said: "Speaking of which, the little girl shouldn't say anything about her sister, after all, she is only filial, but there are priorities, and it is a fact that grandmother and aunt were invited into the palace. If she returns to the capital, won't the emperor have another handle? Presumably, the prince has also seen the influence of the third sister on King Zhenbei!"

"My lord can see that my nephew is really infatuated with Miss Jin San." Prince Duan said, otherwise, Qin Zhijian should have sent Jin Liu back to the capital long ago, and the emperor would not be able to threaten Jin Liu even if he detained her. He was able to dispel the emperor's doubts about him in the past, but he did not allow Jin Liu to return to Beijing for a long time, even though the emperor ignored the three imperial edicts.

"It's also because of this." Jin Xingxi looked at Prince Duan with raised eyes, "In order to protect the safety of the relatives at home, the third sister will definitely not let King Zhenbei cooperate with the prince!"

Now that the emperor holds Jin Liu, it is equivalent to holding Qin Zhijian. The prince can clearly see Qin Zhijian's attitude towards Jin Liu. In addition to what Jin Xingxi said before, the key is Jin Liu. Liu!
Regardless of whether Prince Duan believed what Jin Xingxi said, if she dared to come to him and say such a thing today, there must be something left unsaid. Prince Duan pondered for a moment, then smiled softly, and said, "Since If that's the case, what can Miss Jin do?"

What Jin Xingxi was waiting for was Prince Duan's words, and said with a smile: "Of course there is a way, but I don't know if the prince can do it.

"Hahaha..." Jin Xingxi's contempt did not make Prince Duan angry, but he laughed out loud, and said, "Miss Jin might as well talk about it!"

Regarding the old fox in the hall, Jin Xingxi did not dare to take it lightly, thought it over, and said: "Third sister is stubborn, if she is to be made to ignore the comfort of her grandmother and aunt, she will definitely not be able to do it, but no matter whether she returns to Beijing or not, Surely King Zhenbei will not be allowed to act rashly so as not to hurt them, so it seems difficult for King Zhenbei to cooperate with the prince, but it is not difficult, as long as one of the factors is resolved!"

"You mean, Miss Jin San?" The smile on Prince Duan's face froze for a moment, and he raised his eyebrows and asked. Seeing Jin Xingxi nodding with a light smile, his eyes narrowed slightly. The woman in front of him was not very old. But it was such a ruthless person who actually wanted his sister's life. Among them... there must be fraud!
