"I hope I'm wrong. He is just envious and jealous, thinking that you have robbed the emperor of his favor and his position. Otherwise, if he really wants to kill you, he will definitely choose a time when you and I will be present. "
Ning Wuyan didn't say anything, he had already thought about when Zhou An's best choice would be.
And, he would actively encourage Zhou An to choose this time.
Because someone like Zhou Jingxian, who is not very wealthy and can easily hide things, is not suitable to talk to her so much.
He only needs to let Zhou Jingxian take action at the most critical moment, and she will take action without hesitation.
"Mr. Ning, if Zhou An really wants to get rid of me, I will never show mercy!"
Zhou Jingxian is still clear on this point.
In addition, her father almost fell off his horse and died due to King Jin's evil tricks, and she had to consider whether Zhou An would treat her like King Jin did.
"Haha, Princess Xian, don't worry too much. As you said, even if Zhou An wants to kill you, he must have the ability to do so."
Seeing that Zhou Jingxian fully agreed with his statement, Ning Wuyan eased the tense atmosphere.
"Have you got a meal yet?"
"……not yet."
Ever since Zhou Jingxian received a letter from her father, asking her to be low-key and careful recently to prevent accidents, she was so angry that she ran directly to Zhangjiazhuang.
Afraid that Zhou An would be too arrogant, he gathered all the assassins and rushed into Zhangjiazhuang.
"Then you go and rest for a while. I'll call you when the food is cooked."
Ning Wuyang smiled slightly, as if he didn't care about summoning the killers.
This made Zhou Jingxian even more worried.
she decided.
Stay in Zhangjiazhuang tonight and go to the winery as a errand tomorrow morning.
If Zhou An dares to send killers to cause trouble, she will kill one or a pair of them.
If she was really offended, she might as well go to the Midnight Pavilion, drag Zhou An out and throw him back to the capital, asking Grandpa Huang to convict him!
"I won't leave. Yunfei has gone far. I'm here to guard him."
Zhou Jingxian said and opened the door.
Ning Wuhao saw the situation and didn't force it.
But thinking about what she just said about the summons, she still asked insinuatingly: "How many killers have gathered in Sangege Pavilion now who want to take my head?"
Logically speaking, Zhou An, who was deeply stimulated, must not give up until his life is taken this time.
Now that you have entered the killer's lair, it is only human nature to use extra money to offer a reward.
"Eight hundred or so."
Eight hundred...what?
The kitchen knife in Ning Wuyan's hand almost cut off his fingernails. He looked at Zhou Jingxian in confusion as if he was telling a joke.
It was rare for Zhou Jingxian to see the shocked expression on his face when his mentality was shaken, and she couldn't help but laugh: "Mr. Ning, can't you believe why there are fewer killers?"
"It's not that I don't dare, it's that I find it...unbelievable. Did the killers from Sangen Pavilion recently accept a big order collectively, and then killed a hundred people?"
Then his luck is really good.
Seeing that his guess was so outrageous, Zhou Jingxian could only tell the truth.
"The decrease in killers is due to the fact that many of those killers are veterans or wounded soldiers."
Just one sentence, no unnecessary explanation.
Ning Wuyang suddenly realized: I understand.
Sure enough, people are doing it, God is watching, and good intentions will always be rewarded.
Since there are still conscientious people in Sangenge's killers, and they are still a group of capable and useful talents, it would be too unfair to let them just be killers.
He looked at Zhou Jingxian who was still unaware of this opportunity, turned away, and showed a sly smile.
After Zhou An's death, Sangenge can change its name.
…
At night.
The imperial study room is brightly lit.
After dinner, Zhou Qian once again devoted himself to the daily routine of reviewing memorials.
After looking through twenty books, he picked up the memorial sent by the Ministry of Industry. When he saw that it was the memorial handed over by Zhou Jingxian, he pressed his right palm on the memorial with an unpredictable expression on his face.
Ever since girl Jingxian went to Yujiu Winery, she had more opportunities to submit memorials to him.
However, the food-saving wine-making method has never had good results, but her subordinates from Jiangnan Road came to report that she had opened an ice drink shop with the Shen family and the Ji family and was making a lot of money.
Making ice from saltpeter can not only help King Kang revitalize the mineral resources in his fiefdom, but also create profits.
He couldn't help but worry that after girl Jingxian got her first taste of power, she began to benefit from the public good for her own benefit, focusing only on her personal affairs and ignoring her true business of making wine.
"His Majesty."
Until Su Peiyuan called softly, Zhou Qian, whose neck was a little stiff, raised his head with a sharp look in his eyes.
"Have you checked it out?"
Zhou Qian asked about King Kang's frightened horse and his horse falling off five days ago.
At that time, the horse feeder was dragged into the prison, but because many people on duty at the racecourse testified that the horse had no strange reaction before it was frightened, and there were no traces of drug use, he had no choice but to leave. Of.
He couldn't tell at the time, but it was the King of Jin who was supported by him during the time when he met King Kang. In addition, the two Hanlin Academy bachelors confirmed that they were classmates and friends of King Kang, so King Jin took the risk and asked the brothers to close the wall.
King Kang wanted to use this incident to defeat King Jin.
But afterwards, the King of Jin sent this attack on King Kang to seize the military power from King Kang, and their unyielding attitude made him suspicious.
"Back to Your Majesty, I found out that the horse feeder purchased a 300-acre house and 100 acres of fertile land in the county town of his hometown outside the pass eight days ago."
Su Peiyuan found out only this.
Naturally, it was impossible to find out who ordered the horse feeder to do what.
But just this change was enough to make Zhou Qian understand one thing.
"I used to be too biased..."
Zhou Qian sighed.
How dare Su Peiyuan accept these words, lowering his head and pretending to be deaf and mute.
"I understand, let's go down."
Zhou Qian waved his hand helplessly.
Until Su Peiyuan left and he was the only one left in the entire hall, his shoulders slumped slightly, he put his hands on the table and his head. After calming down for a long time, he punched the table.
boom……
The table shook, and fine lines appeared on the legs of the table, just like the irreparable cracks caused by Zhou Qian's attitude towards King Jin at this time.
"I dote on Imperial Concubine An, and I also prefer Zhou An. I found an excuse to give Zhou An the title of Marquis early on, just to tell Lao Shi that even if he doesn't fight, as long as his child falls in my eyes, he won't compete with him for that position. , it will be up to him to entrust the prince himself!"
Of all the prince's sons, generally only the one who became the crown prince received more attention.
However, the Jin Palace did not establish a heir apparent at all, so he promised Zhou An a young marquis. Even the two deposed princes would not have such an honor.
Not to mention the several grandsons in Prince Kang's mansion, who he usually couldn't even identify.
did not expect!
Never imagined!
His love for Lao Shi's mother and son gave Lao Shi the confidence to kill his siblings.
"Lao Shi was not like this before. Sure enough, a horse's power can be seen from a distance, and a person's heart can be seen over time."
However, when thinking of King Jin's decisive and decisive temperament, even Zhou An had the domineering power to dominate the world, but the old fourteenth seemed much more meek.
Such as this horse fall.
Since he is innocent, he can take the opportunity to check the person who feeds the horse, criticize the king of Jin, and then show his grievances.
But King Kang chose to endure.
"Sometimes, blindly forbearing doesn't mean how deep the city is. It can only show that the disparity in strength between the enemy and ourselves forces the Fourteenth to be forbearing."
Zhou Qian glanced at the elegant handwriting on the memorial and sighed.
It’s not King Kang’s fault.
It is true that he has not paid much attention to Prince Kang these years. In addition, Prince Kang's mother's family is weak. If Jingxian had not been promoted, there would be no one in the entire Prince Kang's palace who could deliver the memorial to him.
"Old Fourteen has been wronged."
Zhou Qian said and opened the memorial.
After reading the above content, his face, which was slightly dark due to anger, suddenly became energetic and he said "Okay" three times in a row.
"Su Peiyuan!"
