Chapter 237: The Secret of the Prime Minister Zhen
Liao Nishang finally wanted to escape by snatching the door. Every time she saw this poor emperor, she never had a good ending. Is the dignified emperor too unofficial? Thinking of Cao Hong standing outside, she couldn't help but feel sympathetic to the man who smiled a little cunningly. No matter how cunning he was, he would not be as good as Zhou Bapi in front of him!
When she walked out of the palace, she saw Cao Hong standing not far away. She looked at him with a faint smile and greeted him. This time she didn't care about her before and nodded to him with a very sympathetic attitude. It was this attitude that Cao Hong instantly made him alert.
He was able to expand his ancestor's family business to this point now, and he had no shortage of vision and intelligence. Seeing the cunning vixen in the shopping mall smiling at him, he instantly felt that his treasure seemed to be targeted.
"Liao everyone..."
He arched his fist at Liao Nishang. Although he was a businessman, he did not have many businessmen's belly with a round waist. If he ignored the unhidden shrewdness in his eyes, he would look a bit gentle.
"Um."
Liao Nishang said a word lightly and left with sympathy. He was about to take out the silver and ask a few more questions, but the eunuch had already waved his hands and said, "Master Cao, where are you going in?"
The little eunuch dared not collect his silver at this stall. After all, the master inside was thinking about how to chew more flesh and blood. If he collected the silver, he still couldn't tell one, so he would easily be missed.
Besides, this Master Cao is not without branches. The Empress Cao in the palace is a powerful master, and her methods are ruthless! In comparison, Empress Li, who is most trusted by His Majesty, is considered to be a little inferior in his wrist, but her affectionate face is really unbearable.
Thinking of this, he suddenly looked shocked, and he cursed in his heart and hurriedly led Cao Hong into it. Cao Hong, who was following behind, was even more confused. However, at this time, no one except the one inside could solve his doubts.
The emperor's marriage entrustment made Gu Jinshu wake up from a dream. She didn't expect that Cao Hong would finally marry a royal family member, the Ruyi Princess who had been widowed for many years. To be honest, this Ruyi Princess was indeed quite tragic in her life. Although she was the same generation as the late emperor, she was not favored. When she was in the age of her father, she married a low-profile imperial examination scholar. However, her husband died in less than two or three years, and she had to return to the capital with a daughter.
I thought there would be no ups and downs in this life, but I didn’t expect that I would be given a marriage to Cao Hong by the current emperor. This is really incredible.
Not to mention Gu Jinshu's eyes widened, even Shen Qingci, who knew the cause and effect of this matter, had a slightly pause. The wolf brush originally held in his hand gently waved it and wrote a few words on the rice paper: The king is ruthless.
After taking a look, he tore the word apart and threw it into the brazier beside him. His eyebrows gradually rose when he sat on the chair.
After hearing this, everyone Liao almost sprayed out a sip of water. The originally weak man now widened his eyes, and finally leaned back on the chair, muttering in his mouth: "How much money has he sold?"
If the Zhen family had just happened before and the wind was one-sided, then the emperor's imperial edict gave marriage was outstanding and no one dared to say more, and even the memorials prepared by the censors were hurriedly run back and tore up.
The clan daughter married a merchant. Who dares to say that the emperor was too rude to the Zhen family? Who dares to say that he is now killing a donkey?
On the third day after the emperor gave the marriage, the Zhen family's giant, the old Prime Minister Zhen, directly decided on Zhen Xinyu's marriage, and this person happened to be Ye Qinglin.
Less than half a month after the marriage discussion, the old prime minister who had been hanging with medicine had never been able to survive this cold winter. He swallowed his last breath. However, when he died, he still handed the note he still treasured to Zhou Nianzhen, which was a reward for his favor.
Looking at the secret fold that was enough to pry a small half of the court, Zhou Nianzheng's breathing was a little tight. People in the world thought that Prime Minister Zhen was a waste of resources to occupy this position, but who would have thought that he would do such a big thing quietly.
If this secret letter is true, then he can completely eliminate Anzi from the Caicang Kingdom. Although his memorial said that except for those with conclusive evidence, the rest of these people are just his suspicion, but since they can be suspected, where will they be clean?
"Shadow, you said that if I ignored the Zhen family's marriage, would he bring this secret to the soil?"
"There is no airtight wall in the world. He is old and he has to think about the descendants of the Zhen family. It's fine if these skeptical people make a mistake, then the blow to the descendants of the Zhen family will be huge. I don't know how many spearheads will be shot at them at that time."
The shadow was hidden behind the screen and looked at it very clearly, and Zhou Nianzhen sighed slightly: "Since that's the case, I will accept this favor from him. Let's silence those who know these things! Give their family a pension."
Although he stood there with his hands behind his back, Shadow could feel his determination, because this not only protected the Zhen family, but also ensured that this matter would never be exposed and facilitated his future arrangements.
Sometimes people must be sacrificed for some things. This is the law of kings.
"promise."
Shadow bowed slightly and was about to leave, but suddenly heard him say, "You just said that there was a suitable person to go to the capital of Beikang Kingdom? Have I seen this person before?"
His words made the Shadow pause slightly, and after a while, he said: "Because of the oral order of the late emperor, this person's identity is extremely secret, so Your Majesty has never seen it."
"I want to see him before leaving."
This matter is related to whether the rear of Kitakura Kingdom can make a fuss as he expected. He naturally wants to meet him and see if he is competent.
Seeing the shadow standing there for a long time without saying a word, Zhou Nianzheng frowned: "No matter how much he said, it was just a secret son left by his father. Can't I meet him yet?"
"He is now in the Kingdom of Kitakura, so it is difficult for His Majesty to see him at first."
“…”
Zhou Nianzheng pulled the corners of his lips, why didn't he say it just now? However, in order to force his respect, he continued to calmly face: "Then I can always meet the secret son who is placed on Zhou Xia's side! But this Gu Mingsheng's man is too unsatisfied, and he has not yet fully controlled the military power in his own hands."
"I'm afraid I can't meet for the time being. My subordinates suspected that An Zi, who was stationed in the late emperor, was very likely to have a rebellion. Otherwise, the Qin army would not have died when it retreated."
"Do you suspect it's Gu Mingsheng? Aren't he injured too?"
He naturally paid great attention to this matter. After all, the Qin army was the army left by his father. Now it was just for Zhou Xia Yao to show his power for two days. Sooner or later, this military power will be taken back by him.
