Chapter 99 A Glass of Wine

Imperial Palace.

Ning Zheng ran all the way back to his palace and ignored the servant and maidservant who greeted Shi Li. His beautiful face was full of resentment, which was completely different from the usual light and bright fresh activity.

She complained that the royal brother regarded Ye Xingchen as a chess code to seize power, and that he pushed the star, which had finally gained a foothold in the imperial capital, to the danger of death, and complained that her brother, who had always spoiled her, did not even care about her feelings! Does he know how much he expects the stars to come to accompany the imperial capital?

She complains, but she doesn't hate it. After all, they were born into the royal family and have the surname Huangfu, which can't be held by ordinary people.

At this time, she only had one idea in her mind - she had to do something to help the stars!

When she was in Shangji City, she saw Li Qingqi's methods and did not care about her princess status, forcing her and Xingchen to jump into Jiaxiu Lake to escape. Now that he has dared to kill the royal family, what a dangerous situation should it be to wait for the stars?

The two royal brothers are gamed with each other, urging all the forces under their command to strangle each other. What can she do to kill each other? She can't even gather ten warriors who are good at fighting. How can she protect the stars? Are you going to ask your father to send troops? As soon as this idea came out, it was dispelled in an instant - the father had acquiesced in the private confrontation between the two brothers. He just waited for the result and would never intervene. Just now, the second royal brother has warned her to remain neutral. Don't admonish in front of his father that the queen is not allowed to run the government. This is the old patriarchal law that has not changed in 300 years since the establishment of the Fanyang Empire.

She ran back to her bedroom restlessly. The old eunuch Guo Amon put his hands in his sleeves and took a nap with his eyes. Hearing the sound of the door, his eyelids immediately opened, but he saw the princess's face full of anxiety and grief.

He quickly got up from his seat and walked up quickly, with a kind smile on his wrinkled face, "What's wrong with your Highness? It can be said to listen to the old slave..."

He wrapped the girl's slender arm, helped her sit down, turned around and poured a cup of warm flower tea from the crane-billed copper pot on the ground dragon bronze stove, and handed it to Ning Zheng's hand, "The honey jasmine tea that the old slave has just boiled is fragrant! It's almost the twelfth lunar month. It's cold. Your Highness is drinking to warm up! How do you feel in the hall? Is the temperature of the earth dragon suitable? If you feel a little wet and cold, you have to tell the old slave that the old slave will add some firewood and coal to the dragon. The female doll's body must not suffer from the cold... Ning Hui's mother suffered a big crime when she was giving birth to you, that is, she didn't pay attention to the wind and her body was weak when she was young. As a result, she didn't even have time to grow up and went back to the west to bliss... So don't think that your Highness is old slaves and talkative, okay?"

The former chief eunuch, the former seal of the big mink, the head of 5,000 eunuchs in the imperial capital, the first master of Fanyang... What's the difference between Guo Amon and the kind-looking and warm-hearted old man after stripping these terrible titles? The emperor's loyal dog, the first murderer of the chaos in the first year of Mingchan, the first person in 20 years, slaughtered the talents of Fanyang Jianghu alone, and all sects did not dare to make trouble... Who can associate the old man who spoke softly and smiling softly with the eunuch in a red python robe?

Ning lowered her head and held the cup stuffed into her hand by the old eunuch in her hand. The warmth flowed into her body along the palm of her hand. The fragrance of honey tea made her heart full offal, but her heart was still blocked, as if she was desperate to do something, but she felt anxious that she could not do anything. She sat without saying a word, like a stone, and the old eunuch's soft words made her more sad.

The old eunuch who has lived in the deep courtyard of the palace for nearly 70 years has long been living as a human spirit. How can the girl's thought escape from his speculsion? You don't have to think about it. It has something to do with the newly appointed General Beichen. Since Shangji City came back, the girl often sat at the gate of the palace with her face and looked up at the sky, smiling at the corners of her mouth, as if someone had dropped a stone in a pool of blue water, rippling out thousands of layers. It was also after returning from Shangji City that the strange Princess Ningzheng became quiet, quiet and quiet, as if holding a secret that only she knew.

But this secret can be seen with a slightly lively heart.

It's good to be young. A little affection can grow the poetry of the whole spring.

He stood down and cringe his waist, "Your Highness, don't worry, there is a solution to everything! The bridge crossed by the old slave is longer than yours. Come and tell the old slave that as long as the old slave can, he will do his best to do it. If he can't catch it, the old slave will use his best..."

For a moment, Ning Zheng felt that this old eunuch was more like a relative than his father and brothers. From childhood to age, she always told Grandpa Guo about almost big and small happy things and annoying things first, and several royal brothers, if they didn't ask, she would not take the initiative to speak. As for her father, she rarely bothered with her own troubles.

In fact, when she just returned to the palace, the first thing she thought of was to ask Grandpa Guo for help, but she thought that the old eunuch was so old that it was getting colder and colder in the twelfth lunar month, and she couldn't bear to run around again. But at this time, the only one who can listen to her quietly is Grandpa Guo, who has served the Huangfu family all his life.

"The eldest brother and the second brother want Xingchen to fight with Li Qing Qiu. They are all on the way. I'm worried about Xingchen..." Ning Zheng sipped honey jasmine tea and eased his anxiety. "They don't care about Xingchen's life or death. My father acquiesces them to do so, and the third brother will also intervene and even want to move troops..."

The old eunuch squeezed his lips tightly and put his hands in his sleeves. "Your Majesty is going to find a candidate for the crown prince at the end of the year. The eldest prince and the second prince are anxious. Now everyone is in danger in the temple. The situation forces them to stand by. I heard that the Wang family in Luzhou stood on the side of the second prince. The old man of the Wang family in Luzhou brought a coffin into the court yesterday, dug out the dead Li Siam and severely criticized him. The upper beam was not correct and the lower beam was crooked, and even Li Qing Qiu was killed! I heard that a few days ago, the young man destroyed Wang's mansion in Luzhou and dragged several servants to death with a horse. Li Qing Qiu inherited his father's domineering arrogance!"

"We Fanyang are good at everything, but the military is not young and yellow. If it hadn't been for the order of riding general Wang Zhongli, who was in danger and damaged Li Siam and the territory of Fanyang, only General Yan of the Imperial Palace would have been struggling to support him. Therefore, His Majesty made an exception for Li Qingqi to inherit the position of his father's Cang navy. It is also for this reason that Ye Xingchen can cross the threshold of six grades and four grades and rise directly from the fourth grade Beichen General. But Your Majesty's mind is unpredictable. Will he really let two young people in their early 20s control military power? His Majesty acquiesced in the fight between the two people. At least one of them will die, and the other will fade his skin even if he doesn't die. It's not so easy for him to be a messenger for Huangfu's family. It's just to grind their spirit! But if you survive, you will really set foot on the road of Qingyun. In your early 20s, you are very young. As long as you are willing to drill patiently and continue to go up, it is a matter of certainty! His Highness took Li Qingjiao, and the Second Highness took the night star, a Cang navy and a general Beichen, who did not give in to each other. This backhand is about killing and who to protect whom! Your Highness, please rest assured that the second prince will not watch Ye Xingchen die. If he breaks the bargaining chip of Ye Xingchen, he will completely lose to the eldest prince! With the old slave's understanding of the second prince, he will never do business at a loss!"

He thought that when he said this, Ning Zheng could be relieved, but the girl's eyes were more confused. The old eunuch was annoyed that it was a bad thing! Ning Zheng does not need these realistic-based analysis at this time. There are 10,000 in everything. He analyzed it very well. Who can accurately predict this danger of fighting on the battlefield? Although he tried his best to put himself in the shoes of His Royal Highness Ning Zheng, he still could not touch the most fundamental fears and worries in the girl's heart.

How can a girl who is less than 20 years old be compared with his 80-year-old immortal? He has lived too long. How many times has he encountered a life-and-death situation? I can't count myself! If you live for a long time, you will be more afraid of death, while others will be more and more comfortable. He is the latter.

At this moment, he understands what His Royal Highness Ning Zheng needs!

"Your Highness, the night stars will be safe!" The old eunuch said plainly, as indifferent as the moon climbing the night sky every night.

But it was this plain sentence that made Ning Zheng's eyes shine.

"Grandpa Guo, are you sure? Can you guarantee that the stars will come back alive? Her eyes are full of expectation.

At this moment, Guo Amon hesitated.

The world thinks that he is a vicious and obedient demon. He created a bloody case in the first year of Ming Chan. One person slaughtered Fanyang Jianghu for 20 years and could not raise his head. Everyone's color changed, but few people knew that he was a person who must practice his words.

Guo Ameng was the most affectionate. He assisted Huangfu Mingchan to sit on the throne, killed a group of old ministers, and killed a Jianghu talent. A big red python robe seemed to be stained with blood, and he was alone with a great reputation, just to repay Huangfu Mingchen's kindness in those years. The almost indulgent love for Princess Ning Zheng is also to repay her long-long respect. Grandpa Guo, how many descendants will be called an eunuch? Similarly, he has a crush on the young man named Night Star, isn't it because of the bow, the gentleman when he was in Shangji City?

Guo Amon, who is the best person, easily doesn't promise. If he promises, he will definitely practice it.

It's almost obsession.

The old eunuch's eyes are deeply embedded in the skin, and his turbid eyes look directly at Ning Zheng's expectant eyes. His white hair is better than snow, and his hands are withered and entangled.

"Okay, the old slave guarantees that the night stars will be safe and sound." Guo Amon whispered.

Ning Zheng suddenly got up and hugged him tightly, with his arms around him like crane wings, pure and beautiful.

Guo Amon was flattered, "I can't do it, Your Highness, there is no difference between superiority and inferiority, I can't do it!"

The girl hugged him tighter.

The old eunuch smiled helplessly and burst into tears in the corners of his eyes, "Well, Your Highness, I'm not a child now. The old slave's old bone can't stand tossing!

He gently patted the girl's head and smiled happily, like a happy old man full of children and grandchildren. Every wrinkle curve was full of relief and emotion.

——————————

On the same day, the eunuch Guo Ameng came out of the palace at night, with a black horse and white hair in red robes, and one horse galloped away.

At the beginning, His Majesty granted him three death crimes without dying. It was a crime to find His Royal Highness Ning Zheng to leave the palace without authorization, and it was another crime to act recklessly in Shangji City. Although His Majesty did not punish him, he still stripped him of the position of printing Diao.

This time, what he wants to intervene is a killing with the acquiescence of His Majesty. Li Qing Qiu and Ye Xingchen are involved in the battle between the prince of the eldest prince and the second prince, and the entanglement between the two major factions of the temple prince party and the second prince party, involving the Southwest Cang navy and the new Beichen general. The core rights of the army. It seems that no one knows silently. In fact, after the 100 light riders brought by the night stars came out of the city, the whole Fanyang temple and dignitaries turned their eyes to that battlefield, one of which were the current Emperor of Fanyang.

Will your majesty still ignore him this time when he stirred up such a big situation?

The old eunuch has decided to use the gift of death for the third time. If not, what's wrong with handing over the position of eunuch in charge and peeling off this red python robe to your majesty?

He has been killing too much in his life. As he is old, he has formed such a good relationship with such young people, which is also a yin virtue.

Then let people all over the world see each other again. How did Guo Amon slaughter the branches and leaves of the whole Fanyang Jianghu alone?

Then, let's get old safely!

————————————

Zhenghe Hall.

Bai Hong, the new head of the seal, bowed in front of him and whispered, "Your Majesty, Guo Amon has just left the palace and went west."

The emperor clasped the throne with five fingers, and his face was as calm as stagned water and silent for a long time.

Bai Honglian is respectful and careful and dares not speak without permission.

The emperor took several cups from the case beside him and raised his head.

"It's not too much to give you a glass of dove wine!"

He looked up and drank all the good wine in the cup, lowered his head, and said to himself, "Having served the Huangfu family for 70 years, Guo Ameng, I respect you for a cup."

"The wine gives good ministers, and Bai Ling rewards the beauty! That's all, that's all!" The emperor threw the cup out, threw an arc and fell to the ground, dongdong, and rolled out of the hall.

It seems that decades of incense have been abandoned in this way.
