As soon as Lin Tingyan left, the King of Qinghe, Lin Jinke, came to visit him again.
Before Chu Nanzhi could recover, she saw Chen Chuan leading the barbarian striding towards him.
Just as Chu Nanzhi was about to stand up, this guy actually sat directly where Lin Tingyan had just sat, picked up the tea bowl on the table and poured a few sips of tea into his mouth.
"That"
Chu Nanzhi wanted to explain that it was the tea that the Six Emperors Uncle drank, but the man had already quenched his thirst and asked carelessly: "Brother and sister, what kind of tricks are you doing? Why did Jin Shu's people attack Tingwei Mansion?"
With so many people around, how was Fang Qingyue's interrogation going, and who was the mastermind behind it?"
"Why is King Qinghe so anxious? The princess has already asked His Majesty to report the results of the trial before the end of the year."
Chu Nanzhi explained with a calm look: "Your Highness should know that this case is not simple. Naturally, it must be interrogated secretly to avoid leaks."
"I naturally know that this case is not simple."
Lin Jinke suddenly stood up, glanced at the cup of tea in front of her, picked it up and drank a few more sips, grumbling: "This little lady from Xiangyue Tower is really inconsiderate. I didn't know that I was the king last night."
The food and wine that were prepared are so dry that my throat is still dry and tight."
After finishing his words, he realized that something was wrong, and quickly restrained himself: "Well, you are a woman, why do I bring this to you? You should hurry up and hand over Du Jiuzhen and the assassin captured last night to me.
I, the king, have suffered this burden for you, and I will cut these two people into pieces with a thousand swords, not only to relieve your hatred, but also to avenge the old Tingwei's shame. The most important thing is that these two people must be related to the death of my father."
"How can I see it?"
Chu Nanzhi watched him intently as he put the tea cup back in front of her, then sat back, frowning and replying: "Obviously, the death of Old Tingwei was not due to a fight between wives and concubines in the mansion. You have also confirmed this.
, and I also heard from people in Tingwei’s mansion that they found the files on my father’s murder in Old Tingwei’s study. It’s not clear that the people behind the scenes are worried that Old Tingwei will find out what happened back then.”
"As for the dossier, it has been explained before. It is not surprising that there is only one dossier."
Chu Nanzhi deliberately said something perfunctory, and then sneered: "Is it because King Qinghe insists on linking two things in such a forceful manner that he has some deeper meaning?"
"What deep meaning can I have?"
Lin Jinke scolded impatiently: "My late father has been murdered for many years, and the real culprit has never been caught. Now that we finally have some clues, how can I give up so easily?"
Seeing that she seemed unwilling to hand over the two of them, Lin Jinke began to threaten in a threatening tone:
"My army of 300,000 Qinghe soldiers are sharpening their swords. They have been waiting for many years to avenge their former master. Yesterday I went out of the city to reward the army. Those 30,000 cavalry, ah, they are the personal bodyguards who protect me. Listen.
After something happened in the city, they all clamored to enter the city to clear the king's side and avenge his late father. I spent a lot of effort to appease them. My brothers and sisters, please don't let me take away all my painstaking efforts."
"Yeah?"
Chu Nanzhi looked at his fearless face and couldn't help but grinned and said coldly: "Since King Qinghe is so sincere, he should go and ask for instructions from his ancestors and His Majesty. Why come to me to test and embarrass a woman like me?
After all, I am only in charge of the prison, and it is up to Your Majesty to decide how this prisoner will be executed."
After a pause, she continued: "When it comes to avenging the old King Qinghe, as His Majesty and Princess Shu are the legitimate sons and daughters of His Highness, their sincerity should not be weaker than yours."
"Ahem, sister-in-law, you don't know something."
Lin Jinke waved his hands disapprovingly and said: "Your Majesty was supported by the ancestors and those ignorant old Jingling ministers, so you would have some scruples, let alone Jinshu. Even though she is so majestic and majestic all the time, that's just
I am relying on the protection of your majesty and my ancestors. If I want to avenge my father, I have to be the king."
After thinking about it, his eyes suddenly became angry, he patted the coffee table next to him with dissatisfaction, and said loudly:
"My father was assassinated back then. This was obviously done deliberately by the remaining evildoers of the late emperor out of dissatisfaction and to vent their personal anger. They should have been executed one by one long ago. My younger siblings are from the Luyangang clan lineage and did not know about Jingling City.
The temperaments of these clan members are nothing but sanctimonious hypocrites. Old King Pingning was so noble and upright back then, but what happened in the end is that your clan relatives have been left out in the cold for hundreds of years."
"makes sense."
Chu Nanzhi listened to what he said plausibly, and then looked at his angry expression, but couldn't help but want to laugh, and pretended to test: "How will Brother Wang plan to avenge His Highness this time?"
Lin Jinke waved his hand and said without any scruples: "As long as you hand those two people into Brother Yu's hands, Brother Yu will have a reputation as a master and will lead the Qinghe Army into the imperial city, slaughter all the members of the Kyoto clan, and then bring down the old family."
The officials involved in the world found out the crimes one by one, executed the entire clan, and shocked the world."
After he finished speaking, he realized that this woman was not happy with him, so he quickly added: "Of course, I and Jin Xiao are both princes of foreign vassals, so they know how to cherish each other. After I have conquered all directions, if you are willing to stay in Kyoto,
, I will never treat you mother and son badly. If you want to return to Luyan Port, I can swear to God that I will protect the royal family of Luyan Port for eternal wealth and will never again do such unjust acts as cutting down vassals and demolishing bridges.
.”
"Brother Wang is still loyal."
Chu Nanzhi pretended to smile happily and said: "Looking at the current situation, it is natural that Brother Wang is the most suitable heir to the throne. He holds 300,000 Qinghe cavalry, the general leads the country's troops from afar, and his disciples have old friends all over the world.
, to be able to get this promise from Brother Wang, I’m afraid I will only follow your lead when I find out.”
Just when Lin Jinke was whetted by her, Chu Nanzhi suddenly changed the topic: "Let's wait a few more days."
"How many days to wait?"
Lin Jinke pursed her lips angrily: "Why?"
"Brother Wang, think about it, right now the general of Qinghe Land is confronting the Rongdi tribe, and Tataraka's bandits are disturbing the border. Even if Brother Wang is eager for revenge, it is really difficult to transfer 300,000 cavalry to the capital.
, with 30,000 troops garrisoned on the outskirts of Beijing, even if we force their way into the city, I'm afraid it will be a lose-lose outcome at best, and the fisherman will gain in the end."
Seeing that he was listening with rapt attention, Chu Nanzhi patiently explained to him: "To be honest, the reason why I had people guard Tingwei Mansion very closely is because I was afraid that the people behind the scenes would have some countermeasures."
"Aren't my brothers and sisters worried that the person behind the scenes will jump over the wall and endanger the capital?"
Lin Jinke asked.
"Wouldn't this just suit Brother Wang's wishes?"
Chu Nanzhi smiled coldly.
"Yes, yes, my siblings are really smart."
Lin Jinke nodded happily.
If there is chaos in the capital, the generals will definitely rely on themselves. Why worry about not being able to lead troops into the city then?
For a moment, his admiration for her became even stronger, and he sighed affectionately: "It would be a great blessing if my brothers and sisters could assist me."
"When Brother Wang takes over Jinling City, I won't be the only one who will be supported by thousands of people."
As soon as Chu Nanzhi finished speaking, Sang Qi's voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Master, Princess Shu wants to see you."
