It turns out that Wen Zhan's surname was Ji and he was the only son of King Zhennan. No wonder he didn't speak and act like ordinary people.
"So you ran away from home because you suspected that your father was rebelling?" Lu Qingtang's face became serious, "This is not a trivial matter, you should find out."
Ji Wenzhan smiled. He looked at Lu Qingtang, his beautiful eyes shining.
"Originally I had doubts, but I just couldn't accept it for a while, but later I realized that this was impossible." Ji Wenzhan sat up straight, his voice was very low, "My father acts aboveboard, even if he has intentions To overthrow Daheng, we will definitely not join forces with Wang Biao and others. What's more, he doesn't need to. With our military strength in Nanzhou, and combined with the local chieftains, it is no problem to attack Yanling."
His words may be bragging, and Lu Qingtang did not comment on this, but being able to talk about rebellion shows his trust in himself.
So Lu Qingtang asked him: "So you concealed your identity because of this matter, right?"
Wen Zhan nodded and continued to say to Lu Qingtang: "I asked you to live in the county government office because my selfish intention was to find out who wanted to frame my father for injustice. It is already difficult for a king with a different surname to carry such a big burden. Damn it, the lives of hundreds of people in Zhennan Palace cannot be saved..."
At the end of his sentence, a sad look appeared on his face.
Lu Qingtang immediately patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, this matter is simple. I will take you to live in the county government office so that you can do your investigation more conveniently."
Wen Zhan smiled immediately, and while thanking her, he also apologized for his behavior just now.
Lu Qingtang thought it was nothing. Drugging people was indeed a bit disgraceful. She herself felt despicable.
"But please Madam Tang, please keep it a secret for me. I don't want anyone to know, especially Prince Chen who came to investigate my father. There are rumors in the court that Your Majesty wants to cut off the vassal and pave the way for the current Prince Yuan. This cannot be said. This is your Majesty's excuse for wanting to cut down the vassal vassal. After all, Mo Zeshen is a member of the imperial court. If he finds out, I'm afraid it will be true." Ji Wenzhan looked at Lu Qingtang with a pleading look on his face.
Lu Qingtang nodded, "Don't worry about this, I will keep it a secret for you. Don't think too much. Although Mo Zeshen is a bit sinister in his actions, in the end he is still very just. If it's true as you said , the imperial court wants to reduce the vassal status, and then makes such a weak excuse, Mo Zeshen will definitely not agree."
Ji Wenzhan smiled helplessly and looked at her with a grimace, "Ms. Tang is still naive, and Mo Zeshen is righteous, which does not represent the justice of His Majesty behind him. Your Majesty... forget it, I won't say more, you actually know it very well. "
Lu Qingtang smiled and said nothing, and then the two of them walked out of the room. Lu Qingtang told Dong Chengbin that he was willing to stay at the county government office for a few days.
Before Dong Chengbin said anything, Mo Zeshen beside him started to feel sour, "The Prince Consort's personal invitation was rejected. How come the kid agreed immediately after entering for a while? It's really strange."
There was a strange tone in his voice, and he knew it was not a good word. Lu Qingtang didn't want to argue with him, but he chose to scold him, so Lu Qingtang was not polite.
She folded her arms and leaned against the door of the inn, looking at Mo Zeshen with disdain, "That's because Brother Wen is very obedient. He begged me. If you beg me, I will naturally agree." Yes. Why don’t you beg me? Can’t you?”
Mo Ze took a deep look at Dong Chengbin beside him and immediately curled his lips, "Who asked you? If it weren't for the sake of the three children, I wouldn't want to see you at all."
Lu Qingtang was startled, but he didn't expect that Mo Zeshen had changed his skin again.
Who was that stalker last night? He used to shamelessly stick to people, and now he is showing off his indifference.
Lu Qingtang's lungs were about to explode with anger, and he immediately choked back, "Yes, then gouge out your eyeballs. If you don't, you won't be human!"
After saying that, she brushed past Mo Zeshen and almost didn't knock him down. Fortunately, Yuan Lang was there to support her.
Yuan Lang sighed and said helplessly: "Your Majesty, why bother? You can say a few nice words without losing any weight."
Mo Zeshen immediately withdrew his arm that was supported by Yuan Lang and snorted coldly, "What do you know? There are people around me now, so I can't guarantee the princess's safety. If I show kindness to her, Dong Chengbin will look at her." , I might as well tell my father about this."
Yuan Lang stretched out his hand to scratch his head and looked at him with a puzzled expression, "Then the prince means that your majesty will not let the princess go?"
"I don't know. The king's power is unpredictable, and I don't dare to guess it." Mo Zeshen said, leaning out to look downstairs, and then turned back to Yuan Lang and said, "Just do as I said, keep an eye on that kid. He’s not a good guy.”
As he spoke, his eyes continued to look at Ji Wenzhan.
He always felt that this kid looked familiar, not a simple person.
…
A large number of people arrived at the county government office. The county magistrate Li Zhi had already dressed in official uniform to greet them at the gate of the county government office. Seeing so many people coming, Li Zhi was immediately dumbfounded.
What kind of wind is this today? It actually blew all these noble people into the county government office of Fangcheng County.
In addition to Mo Zeshen and Dong Chengbin whom he already knew, there were also Shui Yunxi and his wife, and Shui Lingxun who came to ask him to send troops to suppress the bandits.
Unexpectedly, she was really the daughter of the regent, and now she was in big trouble.
Li Zhi immediately knelt down in front of Shui Lingxun. Shui Lingxun knew that officials were always tactful, especially these local officials. Based on the pretext that the sky is high and the emperor is far away, they were very clever in doing things and making arrangements for others.
Li Zhi tried to shirk responsibility again, and had a better attitude towards admitting his mistakes. For a while, he really couldn't do anything to him, so he stopped arguing with him.
Then, Li Zhi led everyone to the back hall of the county government office, a room dedicated to resting. There are more than a dozen vacant rooms here long ago, all of which are clean and tidy. There are also maids and mothers-in-law to assist them, which is quite considerate.
Sumukoudan was making the bed, and Lu Qingtang was holding Mo Yue, and Mo Xinyu Shui Lingxun and his sister-in-law were playing outside while carrying Mo Bao and Mo Mo. At this time, Li Zhi led his wife and daughter out to meet the guests.
Li Zhi's wife is in her forties and is not very beautiful. However, this daughter has inherited Li Zhi's appearance and is a little bit pretty.
She was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and as soon as she saw Mo Zeshen, her starry eyes revealed the shyness of a young girl.
Ignoring everyone else, she bowed deeply to Mo Ze alone, "Jing Shu has met King Chen."
Looking up, the expectation in the beautiful eyes is self-evident.
Mo Zeshen nodded slightly, "I've met the girl."
Li Jingshu had a smile on her face, her face flushed with embarrassment at this sentence, and everyone present had goosebumps.
It seems that Li Zhi deliberately pushed his daughter to Mo Zeshen's bed. Being able to climb the vine of King Chen is considered his good fortune.
