MTL - All Over the World To Save My Wife-Chapter 12 The emperor and his daughter (11)
==============================
"Xiaguan has been concerned about the adult's injury since that day. However, the government is busy. Today, I have time to visit the adult. I also forget that the adult is not bothered by the official."
Chen Moxian lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head respectfully.
It was just a passing scene, and Ling Yan also ended up clean.
It stands to reason that Chen Moxian can be regarded as half of their saviour, and it is normal to visit.
It's just a coincidence.
"I'm so curious, why did Chen Kuling leave the city that day?"
In the face of smart people, it is boring to hide and tuck. After the assassination, it is normal to be suspicious.
"The avalanche was very wide that day, which alerted the county guard.
It was inconvenient to march or transport food, so the county governor sent several teams to clear the official roads in all directions, and by the way, inspected whether there was any damage in the nearby county.
Fortunately, the lower official met His Highness and His Excellency. "
Chen Moxian's expression was as usual, and there was no guilty conscience at all.
"So it is."
A reasonable statement, Chen Moxian is just a mere arsenal order, how can he decide which side he is arranged on?
However, Ling Yan's intuition is not so simple, why is he?
There was a former assassin with a krait mark at the scene. As a former prince, if he didn't know anything about it, it would be unreasonable.
Ling Yan couldn't figure out why he went to search and rescue Gu Zhong? Is it just to exchange for the life-saving grace of a princess?
Compared to Gu Zhong's life, this transaction is really not worth it.
"Can you find out the cause of the avalanche that day?"
"Not yet, it's strange to say, according to the local geography, there has also been a major snow disaster in Beiling, but there has never been an avalanche. According to the natural conditions here, there should be no avalanches."
"I would like to thank Chen Kuling for saving me that day. I wonder if Chen Kuling has anything else?"
Ling Yan thanked him perfunctorily, and then began to chase people away.
"I always feel... the adults seem to hate subordinates? I wonder if the adults can explain a thing or two?"
Chen Moxian smiled wryly, with inexplicable doubts in his eyebrows.
"Chen Kuling doesn't need to think too much, I always treat people like this." Ling Yan denied it.
This person feels really sharp, although she does detest the wolf-hearted person who dares to make a big decision. But Ling Yan thought that he didn't show it clearly, and moreover, Tonggong didn't talk to him a few times.
"It's a subordinate, isn't it?
Chen Moxian is not a stalker, since Ling Yan said so, he believed it for now, and stepped down without any hesitation.
Ling Yan then turned her attention to the plum blossom that was blooming just right, reached out and folded it, and inserted it on Gu Zhongshu's desk just right.
"Blossoms can be folded straight and need to be folded, don't wait until there are no flowers to break the branches..."
In a blink of an eye, the day of the banquet came, and Gu Zhong temporarily borrowed the county governor's mansion as a place for the banquet. A few days ago, he arranged for people to arrange it well, and there were a lot of warning signs hidden in the whole mansion. guard.
.
"His Royal Highness is now attending the banquet, but it is a lot more calm, and there is no migraine?"
In the quiet room, Ling Yan stood behind Gu Zhong, straightened her hair and made a joke.
"This is a Hongmen banquet led by a single force. It is much more interesting than those flashy and boring palace banquets in the palace."
Suddenly, Ling Yan mentioned the excuses she used in the palace to escape the palace banquet.
"Can you read the information of the noble families in Beiling that the Gyeonggi Guards have sorted out over the past two days?"
"Don't worry, sir, you will understand."
"It's time for a banquet, isn't Your Highness going out?"
I can hear the bells ringing in the front hall, it's time for a banquet.
"Why do you have to make a face for these self-proclaimed noble gatekeepers?"
Gu Zhong disdainfully, took a sip from the teacup on the table, making up his mind to give those who are ill-intentioned a disdain today.
The patience of those who are searching the front hall should also be worn down. People with ghosts in their hearts are afraid that they will be impatient.
"His Royal Highness Chitose!" All the ministers in the hall stood up and bowed.
Gu Zhong lifted the cup on the chopping board, covered his face with his sleeves, and took a gulping gesture, but Ling Yan could see clearly from her side, she poured the wine on the ground, only The cuffs are wide and unnoticeable.
Everyone in the lower seat said that they did not dare, and they all raised their glasses and drank together.
"Feast!"
Gu slapped a high five, and the maids filled the table.
At first, the people who came to the banquet thought it was Her Royal Highness the concubine who did not know where to find a team of actors to help the banquet. Gradually stopped the cups and chopsticks in his hands, sweating profusely, he didn't dare to move at all, like statues.
"What? Don't you like this show?"
Gu Zhong sat on the top, with all the gestures under his eyes.
Ling Yan sat aside, and secretly wrote down the people who overreacted in her mind, corresponding to all the information in her mind one by one.
Most of the people present fell to their knees again, and those who didn't know why had a bad intuition and followed suit.
In an instant, the whole hall was silent, only the actors in the hall were still singing "Yah ah ah", but they were performing the scene of "God descends to earth, shelters all living beings, only knows gods, not emperors".
"Lonely but not knowing, what's your fault?"
Whether His Majesty in Beijing has also known.
Since ancient times, theocratic power has only been a tool for emperors to rule and educate the people. There has never been such a thing as theocratic power over the monarchical power, let alone fooling the people and stealing the court's credit to settle for religion. .
The princess was outside the city when she was assassinated, so she must have gone to Xia County and happened to see the Wuzhu sacrifice.
Gu Zhong waved his hand to let the actor troupe retire for the time being, and coldly swept the silent crowd in the hall, the number of people who were very convenient for witch sects was far beyond her expectations.
The so-called up and down effect is the same in Beijunfucheng. It is no wonder that the county magistrate is difficult to manage, and the people of the city are fanatical believers.
However, this also made Gu Zhong see through one thing, these aristocratic families don't really have much respect for the emperor, and if it was not as good as the army, they would not be so obedient at all.
After all, the rise and fall of dynasties, ranging from decades to hundreds of years, who knows that you will be on the throne today, and who will sit on the throne tomorrow?
Ling Yan coldly looked at His Highness as a low-lying crowd, presumably in his previous life Gu Zhong was overthrown by Chen Moxian in one fell swoop.
It's just that these Beijun bureaucrats who eat imperial food are in sympathy with them, which is really chilling.
"Why is no one answering the lonely question?"
Gu Zhong stood up and walked down the steps slowly, holding the imperial majesty that shocked the soul.
There is still silence, and no one wants to be the first to bear the wrath of the wife.
"I don't know, this Beiling can be renamed the Wu Kingdom. In a few years, the army in the north will have to change its course."
"Look at what this is?"
Gu Zhong flicked his sleeves and threw a square handkerchief on the ground.
No one dared to step forward.
"I'll let you see!"
Gu Zhong suddenly shouted, and many people below couldn't help but shiver.
Under the advice of the surrounding colleagues and various noble families, the county governor had to bite the bullet, climbed forward tremblingly, and picked up the Fangpa.
"This...is this a krait?"
The county guard was shocked when he saw it.
"Oh? The Sheriff knows what the logo means?"
Gu Zhong asked.
"The minister...the minister saw it more than ten years ago...this is the logo of the imperial guard of the previous dynasty."
The county governor stuttered and said this sentence, and leaned down again, not daring to let out the air.
"It's a coincidence that Lone's whereabouts can be said to be secret, so why did the remnants of the previous dynasty choose a good place to ambush?
I don't know which one of you is here, willing to pay for the life of an orphan? Today, I will have a good talk with you. "
Gu Zhong walked back to the seat above and sat down, posing as if she was going to have a long talk with everyone, she did enough deterrence in the hall, just to disturb the behind-the-scenes people's mood.
But with just a few days of investigation and bluffing in words, it is impossible to find the spy hidden in this Beiling County.
.
good time.
Ling Yan paid close attention to Chen Moxian. He only moved slightly when the county governor called out "The Ringed Snake", and the rest of the time was completely silent, completely out of the way, as if everything It really has nothing to do with him.
The more so, the more terrifying it is. Aside from the means and conduct of this man, he is indeed a difficult opponent.
"Report! Your Highness! Emergency report from the northern border! 50,000 barbarians are attacking!"
An unexpected military situation suddenly broke the dull silence in the hall.
"Oh... It's really good to calculate, fornicating foreign bandits, it's really good!"
Gu Zhong gritted his teeth, the barbarians didn't come sooner or later, but it happened to come at this time to disrupt the situation, and no one believed that there was no traitor.
No matter how unwilling she is, Her Royal Highness can only take the lead in handling the military situation. She hurriedly strode out of the hall, and Ling Yan quickly followed.
"No one is allowed to enter or leave this door without the edict!"
