When Zhou Jingxian entered the royal study, she saw the dark-faced Grandpa Huang walking towards her, looking anxious, which shocked her heart.
What happened?
Or is the message in the letter important?
Thinking of this, she quickly apologized: "Grandpa Huang, it's all my fault that my granddaughter didn't want it. When passing by Huangcheng Street, I heard the students from Luohe Road talking about Mr. Ning's injury. He stayed for a while, and then he was delayed. Deliver the letter.”
"Deliver a message?"
Zhou Qian's dark face froze for a moment, then he immediately changed his face and started laughing.
"So, girl Jingxian, you are here to deliver a message... No, who did you say was injured just now? Mr. Ning? Is Ning okay?"
This didn't make him more angry than if something happened to the fourteenth old man.
Zhou Qian hurriedly took the letter from Zhou Jingxian, took a look at the special paint, the pattern corresponded to the dragon head Qin Shishi, and tore the envelope open in front of Zhou Jingxian.
When Zhou Jingxian saw this, she realized that Grandpa Huang had misunderstood the meaning of her words, and quickly explained: "Grandpa Huang, the letter did not write about Mr. Ning's injury..."
"yes."
Zhou Qian only glanced at her briefly before answering her firmly.
"The letter is about Ning Wuhuang being injured in Luohe Road. Girl Jingxian, thank you very much for delivering the letter. You still need to work hard to receive the mission from the Western Regions. Today is the first day, and I specially asked the cavalry to The sharp stirrup weapon is displayed in front of the countries in the Western Region, and there will definitely be no peace today."
Yeah?
Zhou Jingxian thought to herself: Why do I feel that with the stirrups intimidating those forces who want to take advantage of the Western Region mission's arrival in the capital, they will be caught off guard by the appearance of the stirrups, so that they can wait for a few days to wait for Mr. Ning to arrive in the capital. There are other actions.
Didn't Grandpa Huang want to use stirrups in this way, so he revealed it himself after keeping the news secret for so long?
But seeing the anxious look on Grandpa Huang's face, Zhou Jingxian immediately cupped her fists and bowed: "Grandpa Huang, don't worry, my father and I will definitely do our duty, live up to Grandpa Huang's trust, and prevent any accidents from happening at today's reception banquet." .”
"Okay, okay, girl Jingxian, you are dedicated to serving the country and the king. The emperor knows what you are thinking. Su Peiyuan, please send Princess Jingxian away."
"Granddaughter resigns."
Zhou Jingxian, who was full of enthusiasm for her errand, didn't realize what she was doing until she walked out of the imperial study room and was shaken by the cold late autumn wind outside.
Eh?
Did Grandpa Huang deliberately find a reason to drive her away?
Just as she was thinking about it, Su Peiyuan, who had sent her out, was called back by Grandpa Huang.
She listened attentively, and vaguely heard the emperor's angry voice asking Su Peiyuan to call Uncle Jin to come to the imperial study.
If there was no such thing as the Qiao Family of Imperial Shang, the person responsible for receiving the envoys from the Western Regions should be Uncle King Jin.
Two days ago, Uncle Jin Wang sent a special list.
It is rumored that the list contains many Beidi spies who have been lurking in the capital for many years, which is the unexpected gain of the Qiao family of the imperial merchant.
Uncle Jin Wang didn't say exactly how he harvested it, and it seemed that Grandpa Huang didn't intend to ask carefully.
Anyway, the uncle of the King of Jin was given the power to investigate and arrest all the involved personnel.
At this time, Uncle Jin Wang should still be investigating cases and arresting people. Beidi's details will be very important for the next competition. I don't know what was written in the letter that made Grandpa Huang so angry.
"You said that Mr. Ning's injury cannot be related to Uncle Jin Wang, right?"
When the two sword-carrying dragon guards heard this question, they wished that when they left the princess's mansion, they had turned their ears to the princess's mansion and didn't bring it with them.
They also admire Princess Xian from the bottom of their hearts, who dares to speak out.
Your Majesty bestows a sword-bearing dragon guard to protect you. Although it is an honor, it is also a form of supervision.
They need to regularly inform His Majesty of Princess Xian's words and deeds.
Just like what I said just now, it is hard not to suspect that it was Princess Xian who wanted to convey it to His Majesty through them.
"I hope Mr. Ning's injury is not serious, otherwise Uncle Jin Wang's contribution to catching Beidi Xizao will not be worth such a big mistake."
"..."
"..."
The two dragon guards with knives wanted to find a crack in the ground to slip in and pretend they didn't exist.
While they sympathized with themselves, they couldn't help but silently light a candle for King Jin in their hearts.
If Ning Wuchang's injury had nothing to do with Prince Jin, then that would be fine.
If it was really related, then during this competition, King Jin would probably have to stay in the palace and think about his mistakes, and would not have the opportunity to show his face in front of other countries.
…
At this time, the King of Jin did not know that the letter came from Luohe Road and had been quietly sent to the capital.
He already knew about Zhang Zhida as early as yesterday.
I was panicked for a while at first, but fortunately Zhou Yu thought of a comprehensive method. After praising Zhou Yu mercilessly, King Jin didn't take the matter to heart.
Both Zhang Zhida and Huang Nanming were abandoned sons.
Neither the Zhang family nor the Huang family could betray him. In addition, Zhang Zhida was dead and the post had done a clean job. Even the dragon guards sent by his father to Ning Wuhuang gave up on sending messages to Beijing. There is no proof of this idea, so the Dragon Guard must have done more than done less.
Except for the pity that he lost two dogs, King Jin had nothing to be sad about.
What he has to do now is to get the credit for the arrest before Ning Wuyan and the Long Wei beside him go to the capital to make trouble in front of his father.
Prove his loyalty to his father.
King Jin rode his tall horse through the lively crowd and stopped in front of the bustling Xiyi Pavilion.
Seeing the people from the Western Regions Mission coming in and out, he could imagine how prosperous King Kang, who was in charge of the reception today, must be as the host representing his father.
They will definitely be praised by many envoys from small countries or princes and nobles. I only hope that King Kang can arrange a more comfortable place for them to stay and a larger area for activities. If they encounter trouble in the future, they can also get protection from King Kang.
Whether it is between people or between countries, these people who adapt to the situation are rare and strange.
but.
This does not mean that King Jin is happy to watch King Kang steal the show.
"Old Fourteen, Old Fourteen, didn't you put all your efforts into arranging so many soldiers and horses here just to make today's Jie Feng Banquet pass in peace? I just won't let you get what you want!"
He came here specifically to steal King Kang's limelight.
Let the people in the entire capital take a good look.
While King Kang was drinking and chatting with the envoys from the Western Regions, he was still working silently and hard to shoulder the safety of the entire capital.
He used to not be good at such painful roles, but now, the situation in Prince Jin's Mansion is lagging far behind others. When it is time to pretend to be pitiful, he still has to pretend to be pitiful.
Especially this pretending to be pitiful can not only steal King Kang's limelight, but also disrupt King Kang's carefully prepared reception banquet. Killing two birds with one stone, why not?
When his father came to see him, if King Kang blamed him, he could just put the blame on King Kang's failure to do a good job in the review, which caused Beidi Xizuo to infiltrate the reception group, and also allowed King Kang to be criticized by his father.
"Somebody come!"
King Jin was ready to arrest people in public, and made an agreed gesture towards Amao who was standing at the door.
When he saw Amao turning around and running towards the Xiyi Pavilion to start arranging the details of his arrest, he shouted orders to his men who were already preparing to attack.
"Surround the Xiyi Pavilion, and not a single fly is allowed to be released without my order!"
