Zhang Zheng just climbed up from the stairs below and was too tired to speak. He waved his hand and calmed down for a while before saying, "My disciple was brought into the palace by Concubine Xiao. I came to ask for someone from your master. "
The next moment, an angry voice was heard coming from the imperial study room.
"Why do you want someone from me? You go to whoever took him away. Your disciple is not here with me."
Hearing the voices inside, the eunuch whispered in Zhang Zheng's ear, "The ministers of the DPRK and China, headed by the Prime Minister, have always been opposed to your Majesty's implementation of the New Deal. They have been sulking inside since they left the DPRK. We don't dare to enter that room anymore." .”
Zhang Zheng nodded when he heard this, patted his clothes, and pushed back the messy hair on his cheeks. He thought he was clean and tidy, and then walked towards the royal study.
"What did you say, old boy? It was your woman who took away my disciple. If I don't come to you, could I go directly to your harem? If I really do this, your ministers will be killed tomorrow. Do you believe that you can spray me into a sieve with your saliva?"
While talking, people have already entered the imperial study room.
Although Zhang Zheng shouted like an old boy, the emperor was only forty-five years old and in his prime.
However, Zhang Zheng and the late emperor were brothers who were inseparable from each other. It was because of his seniority that he was always suppressed by this stubborn old man.
Gu Jinghe glanced in Zhang Zheng's direction with disgust on his face.
"Look at your appearance. If you don't know better, you might think you are a beggar on the street. Don't ever say you are my uncle when you go out."
Zhang Zhengman waved his hand nonchalantly.
"Forget about other things, please quickly send someone to find Concubine Xiao's place to find my disciple."
"Your disciple? Which one are you referring to specifically?"
This old man traveled all over Nanyuan Kingdom and had disciples all over the country, hundreds if not thousands.
"Chu Yue." As if he was afraid that Gu Jinghe wouldn't be able to figure it out, Zhang Zheng also reminded him specifically, "The one you personally named Heyue County Lord."
Surprise flashed across Gu Jinghe's face.
"The little girl who solved the crisis on the battlefield last year?"
"Exactly."
Zhang Zheng nodded proudly.
Gu Jinghe frowned in frustration, displeasure flashed in his heart.
"Why did Xiao Guifei bring her to the palace for nothing? That girl is the second-level county owner with the title of my own. She was brought into the palace like this without informing me in advance. This is not nonsense. What?"
Concubine Xiao relied on the power of her natal family and had been misbehaving in the palace for many years.
Concubine Jin was disappointed with him because of Concubine Xiao, and finally forced her to leave the palace. Qian Yu never called his father again from then on, and even took the surname Gu to the outside world.
Qianyu's original name was Gu Qianyu, Gu was the surname of the Nanyuan royal family, and Qian was the surname of Concubine Jin. For the concubines in the harem, this was a unique favor.
Now that he has taken off his surname Gu, it looks like he is taking his mother's surname.
Qian Yunjin is the daughter of Zhang Zheng's good friend. In the past, when Qian Yunjin's father was still alive, Qian Yunjin would call Zhang Zheng his godfather.
He felt his eyes light up the first time he saw her, and then the two of them joined forces and took her to the palace.
When she learned his identity, she was surprised on her face and resented the concubines in the harem, but she still had feelings for him in her heart and finally accepted her identity.
However, the place where she used to live was too clean, and she was not good at the overt and secret fighting in the palace, so she ended up covered in scars.
After she had a miscarriage, she dragged her weak body and led the six-year-old Qianyu out of the palace in despair. The old man even scolded him. If it weren't for his identity as the Lord of Nanyuan, this old guy would have Take action.
It was him who failed to protect their mother and son.
It is precisely because of this matter that Zhang Zheng has never had a good look towards Concubine Xiao.
"Who knows what's going on with her? I leave my words here. If my disciple loses a hair later, let alone the old man, I will never set foot here again, and the Holy Hand Sect will never be given to the palace again. Work, as for Concubine Xiao..." He glanced at Gu Jinghe with hatred, "You dare not touch her for the time being, old man, I will use my own connections."
After hearing Zhang Zheng's extremely protective words, Gu Jinghe realized the seriousness of the matter.
It seems that this old guy is really interested in that girl Na He Yue. Although he defended Yun Jin in the past, he never said such harsh words in front of him.
Whether Concubine Xiao died or not was secondary. In the past, the support of the Holy Hand Sect was crucial for him to secure the throne. If this part of the power was suddenly withdrawn, he would not be able to bear the loss.
Now that he knew the seriousness of the situation, Gu Jinghe hurriedly gave instructions outside the imperial study room.
"Li Dezheng, go to Changqiu Palace and bring Lord Heyue County to the Imperial Study Room." At the end, he specifically asked, "Remember, you must bring him back unscathed."
Outside the Imperial Study Room, the eunuch chief who had just supported Zhang Zheng bowed respectfully after hearing this.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will go right away."
He did not dare to be careless about Gu Jinghe's instructions, and hurried to Changqiu Palace with a few young eunuchs.
…
Chu Yue was brought into the Changqiu Palace by Zhao Shicai, who only claimed that she was the distant niece of Concubine Xiao and came to the capital to visit her elder.
When she entered Changqiu Palace, Concubine Xiao was resting. All the servants in the palace did not dare to disturb her and made her wait outside for two quarters of an hour.
It took two-quarters of an hour to walk from the palace entrance to Changqiu Palace, and now she stood outside Changqiu Palace for another two-quarters of an hour. Chu Yue felt that her legs were numb.
She thought to herself.
I wonder if Master has come to the capital?
But regardless of whether the master comes or not, she will definitely find an opportunity to repay the injustice she suffered now in the future.
She has always wanted revenge, and even if she couldn't do it at the time, she would remember to do it later.
"Ningdong, follow me later." Chu Yue turned her head and told Ningdong who was standing beside her.
"Yes, Miss. Your servant will definitely follow you closely. Wherever you go, your servant will go. Make sure they don't bully you."
Although Ningdong felt a little uneasy, she was more courageous than ordinary girls because she had learned some skills since primary school, so she did not suffer from stage fright this time.
Chu Yue pursed her lips and smiled.
"Fool, if they really want to bully me, it's useless for you to be here. We are outnumbered. I'm mainly afraid that they will bully you."
She has the status of the county head, and Concubine Xiao wants to deal with her, but she has to think carefully, and Ningdong is just a little girl. There is no chance that Concubine Xiao is not in the right position, and it is possible to take out her anger on her maid.
Hearing this, Ningdong's nose felt sore and she almost shed tears.
"Miss, you treat your slave so well."
No one had ever been so kind to her, and no one had ever cared about her life or death.
At this moment, the aunt in charge of Concubine Xiao led the two maids out of the house and happened to catch the scene of the two talking. She looked Chu Yue up and down with a trace of disdain on her face.
A woman from a peasant background really has little education.
How appropriate would it be to talk and laugh outside the imperial concubine's Changqiu Palace?
Due to Chu Yue's status, she still looked towards Chu Yue with a proud face.
"Miss Cousin, your Majesty is awake and wants you to come in."
