Chapter 109 Quick and First
This meditation only lasted for a while, and Huang Baiju began to explain the context of the matter.
It turned out that on that day, the second prince would suddenly send someone to thoroughly investigate and store and lose the Chang'an Hall of the Jiulong Monument. It was indeed for a reason. On that day, after the second prince witnessed Yunshang's torture and returned to his own Chixia Hall, he began to feel uneasy for no reason, and his whole heart seemed to hang up and hung on his throat. The whole person sat in the study. There were unfinished official duties on the desk, and there were unfinished picture scrolls at hand, but these two things that usually formed the whole of his life did not arouse his interest at this time.
This kind of depression has rarely appeared in the past 20 years of His Royal Highness the Second Prince.
He was irritable and called Huang Baiju to accompany him, drinking tea and chatting to relieve his discomfort in his heart.
A night of dim lights, the restless second prince, the inexplicable summoned yellow and white orange, and so on. This night must be an unusual night.
Sure enough, when their tea was slightly cold, a cold light floated by without warning. With a sound, the cold light passed over the head of the red oak holding the tea tray and waiting to serve, and nailed it on the pillar behind the two of them. The red oak was scared to death, and the tea tray and tea cup in his hand fell to the ground and smashed it.
This sudden noise disturbed the surrounding bodyguards. The bodyguard ran in with a white face. Seeing the gloomy phoenix purple, he knelt down on one knee and immediately pleaded for the death penalty. This is because Feng Zifeng didn't make any mistakes. In case he really made a mistake, not to mention his life, it is not enough to compensate for the lives of the whole guard.
How can they make up for such a huge mistake?
Looking at the trembling bodyguard, Feng Zifeng raised his hand and waved it and motioned him to get up. "Who's coming? Have you caught up?"
The bodyguard's face turned red and he kowtowed heavily to the ground. "Dast hell, I didn't catch up with that man."
When they chased them out, they didn't see anyone, let alone people!
Being able to escape from the stacked houses in the palace, and to escape with such elegant demeanor and so quiet, I have to say that other people's escape is very good at a level.
It can also be proved that their group of people are simply... wine bags and rice bags, dragged out and beheaded, and it is not enough to cut a hundred times!
The bodyguard thought of this, and his face, which had just turned red because of shame and anger, turned white in an instant.
Feng Ziqi looked at his face white and red, red and white, and sighed. He couldn't blame them about this matter. "Add more patrols tonight, don't take it lightly."
The bodyguard was relieved. Although his master usually had a gloomy face and looked very scary, in fact, he was definitely a lord of benevolence and righteousness. There was no punishment for such a mistake, just telling them to strengthen the patrol.
The bodyguard warmed his heart and kowtowed heavily on the ground and said, "Yes, Your Highness!"
They retreated, and the yellow and white orange pulled the dart shot into the house from the pillar. As soon as he started the dart, he was stunned. This dart was actually made of sterling silver. May I ask, who would be so generous to ordinary thieves or assassins? Use sterling silver darts to give the other party a warning?
The red man who woke up got up from the ground and saw this strange sterling silver dart and said, "Ah! This man is afraid that we will misunderstand that the dart is poisonous!" Huang Baiju was stunned and instantly reacted, "Yes, in our Medicinal Diet Bureau, silver needles and silver chopsticks are used to test poison the masters."
After saying that, Huang Baiju opened the thin letter nailed to the dart.
The letter is very simple.
It's only a few lines, but it seems to weigh a thousand pounds! The two people present were stunned. It is not too much to say the word "stunned", because when the two people saw these words at that time, their faces froze in an instant.
What they have been looking for is that side represents the supreme Jiulong Zhenbei, which represents the Dafeng Dynasty. At this moment, it is in the hands of the two Hanhai envoys!
Why is that?
The Hanhai envoy who should have walked away with the Jiulong Monument, but now he is unexpectedly holding the Jiulong Zhenbei! Not only that, they also shouted to catch the prisoner and found the Jiulong Zhenbei, and there was a tendency to stop if they didn't find it.
This alone is strange enough!
Coincidentally, at this time, Lou Yunshang has become the head of this headless public case!
Feng Zizhen, who had given up and ignored Yunshang, seized this opportunity and sent someone to the Chang'an Hall to thoroughly investigate before the prince took action. As a result, I really picked up the Ziluo ear with very different knots on the floor of the Treasure Pavilion.
Everything seems to have nothing to do with it from beginning to end, and everything is a separate individual. However, when we think about these things carefully, it is not difficult to find that this is not as simple and independent as it appears on the surface. It seems to be a big weave. The airtight net is linked to this ring. The prey of this net is the royal family of the Dafeng Dynasty, the interests they protect day and night!
It's just that the only thing that people can't see through now seems to be...
Who is holding this big net in his hand? When will this most critical lock fall on this big net? These problems are what Feng Zijing can't figure out at the bottom of the time.
If this network was originally woven by the two envoys of Hanhai, then what role did the person who sent him a letter play in the whole story now?
vaguely, Feng Ziqi felt that this invisible big net was quietly closing.
"Your Highness, what should we do now?" The yellow and white orange held the physical evidence in his hand.
Feng Ziqi took the picture, played it carefully in his hand, and suddenly smiled gently. This kind of smile rarely appeared on his face.
"To my father, in any case, it is most important to stick to the territory of my Dafeng Dynasty." On his young face, the king's temperament and calmness suddenly appeared.
At this point, it seems that there has been a huge turning point. What's more rare is that the corner of this turning point is quite beneficial to its own side.
Huang Baiju also breathed a sigh of relief and took over the ears. "This matter is arranged," he also smiled. "In this way, not only can you keep the territory of the Dafeng Dynasty, but I'm afraid Your Highness is still thinking about this other thing in your heart?"
Feng Ziqi's eyes moved slightly, and her hand to get the official document unconsciously paused in mid-air.
*****
After listening to the whole story, Lu Jin fell into meditation.
In the final analysis, all the clues and the turning points of all the follow-up stories are due to this hard-won short but not simple letter.
Then, this messenger has become the root of all the puzzles.
Who are they and why do they help them like this?
Not only the phoenix purple and yellow and white oranges, but also Lu Jin can't understand.
"Do you have any ideas?" Seeing that he was meditating, Huang Baiju couldn't help asking.
Lu Jin shook his head regretfully, "At present, I have to put my hope on my second brother for the time being."
Out of the window, the time is coming. Tomorrow, what kind of dawn and morning will these people in the small building of Lianxin usher in? Will they get what they want with common concern?
At this time, in the palace, the old emperor gathered several of his sons and the minister was discussing how to solve the problem of Hanhai's envoy shouting to catch the thief.
This matter is related to the national body of the Dafeng Dynasty, but also to the relationship between the two countries. Especially the second point, between such a hot Feng Dynasty and the Hanhai Kingdom, even if a needle is dropped, it will startling splashes everywhere. What's more, is it such an earth-shaking event?
After several discussions, everyone finally reached a compromise method that does not affect the state.
The next morning.
Above the Yin'an Hall, the old emperor summoned the civil and military officials and went to court as usual.
Eunuch Wei announced in the court that what was lost a few days ago was not the Jiulong True Monument, but another treasure in the Chang'an Hall. This matter was actually a self-made thing, which was not worth hanging on everyone's mouth and heart, and the real Jiulong True Monument was also well worshipped after the spiritual position of Chang'an Hall. As soon as the auspicious day arrives, you can entrust it to the envoy of Hanhai and ask them to invite the national treasure back to the Hanhai Kingdom to continue to uphold the worship of incense.
This sounds like a happy ending.
Unfortunately, there is a minister who doesn't know how to look at the amorous feelings. Although he is a minister, he is just a petty official, but he is an extremely righteous person. After listening to it, he pointed out the loopholes and flaws in the imperial edict at that time, so that the emperor and Gu Wenlun, the bachelor who drafted the edict, They are all ashamed.
To tell the truth, he was not wrong, but unfortunately, he said the wrong place and the wrong time.
An old face of the old emperor was thrown into the vast sea, and the national dignity of the Dafeng Dynasty was questioned by this series of questions.
Therefore, this official who dared to speak bluntly was immediately pushed out of the Yin'an Hall and beheaded to the public.
From here on, no one dares to talk about the loss and recovery of this Jiulong True Monument, and no one dares to question it.
Needless to say, the envoy of Hanhai is very satisfied with this result, but outsiders don't know whether this satisfaction comes from the bottom of his heart.
At least, they have to hand over the two small places of Liuzhu and Pingfu for this time. Generally speaking, it was the Dafeng Dynasty who exchanged this dead thing for two living small ports. This business is only profitable.
This side was finalized. Next, Lu Jin and Lou Yunyu had prepared the best soft carriages and horses. They came to the gate of Sizhengyuan and were ready to pick up the unjust Lou Yunshang. He heard the latest news about Yunshang.
Lord Si Zheng of Sizhengyuan greeted him from Sizhengyuan with great regret. However, there was no half-person figure of Lou Yunshang behind him except for some attendants!
"Little marquis, Lu Shaojian, it's really unfortunate. You two came half a step late. This morning, Princess Yunshang has been taken out of Sizhengyuan. At present, she is not here." When Si was talking, his head was hanging very low. Naturally, he didn't see it. After their carriage, there was a smaller carriage parked, with a dragon with four claws painted on it, which was the prince's seat.
Lu Jin and Lou Yunyu looked at each other and were full of surprise. They couldn't help asking, "Lord Si Zheng, do you know who picked up Yunshang?" Who will grab them before they and pick them up?
Lord Si Zheng's face was even more strange. He swung his gums and made a thought-provoking voice, "This... back to the little marquis, this man was picked up by the carriage of His Royal Highness."
