In the depth of winter, it was less than a month before the New Year's Eve, and all government offices gradually began to close their books, and more and more people were walking around in the capital.
At this moment, news suddenly came out from nowhere that Old Master Luo Yuanjing intended to accept the commander of the Jinyi Guards, Lu Hanjiang, as a closed disciple.
This is more shocking news than the return of the Lu family commander to the Lu family in the past few days. What is even more unbelievable is that some people couldn't help but go to the academy to find out the news and found that there seemed to be signs of this matter.
You must know that the old master has established himself in the court with an upright image. Many people can't understand why he suddenly compromised on Jin Yiwei and made such a big concession.
Many people speculate that the possible reason is that the three people currently imprisoned in the Jinyi Guard Prison, excluding Han Cheng, and the remaining Zhao Ziyi and Fang Huayu, are all disciples of the old master.
Perhaps it was because the disciple was captured and the old master was threatened, so he had no choice but to take this step? Now that the old master himself has not expressed his position, this kind of speculation seems to be the most logical.
As a major power in Beijing, the East Palace naturally heard such rumors, so it was summoned by Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess. Qi Yunzhou, the vice president of Meihua Academy, once again went to the palace to pay homage to his good junior sister.
After the two met and chatted for a few words, the Crown Princess got to the point. She asked warmly: "I heard that the teacher intends to accept Mr. Lu as a disciple. Senior brother, is this true?"
"Ah haha, it turns out that junior sister has also heard about this," Qi Yunzhou smiled dryly, and then said: "Teacher never cares what others think about his work, so I don't know about this either."
The Crown Princess nodded with a smile. Qi Yunzhou's answer did not exceed her expectations. Now that the situation in Beijing is dark and unclear, it would be reasonable for Old Master Luo to really want to place bets separately.
As his disciple, how could Qi Yunzhou take everything out of his hands, let alone her top smart brother, who is a master at pretending to be fake.
However, the Crown Princess called Qi Yunzhou over because she didn't really want to ask anything from him.
"Senior brother, please don't be nervous. Regarding this matter, I have a few words to say. Is it okay?" the Crown Princess said with a warm smile.
Qi Yunzhou hurriedly replied: "Junior sister, this is really killing senior brother. If you have anything to say, just ask."
The princess smiled and said: "I think it is a great thing for the teacher to accept Mr. Lu. Now there are many misunderstandings between the academy and Jinyiwei. If we can form a fate at this time, it will be a blessing to the teacher and the academy.
It’s a good thing.”
Qi Yunzhou's eyes flashed slightly, and he immediately put on a face of joy, and said loudly: "Junior sister is right, it would be great if the misunderstanding between Jin Yiwei and Jin Yiwei could be resolved."
The Crown Princess smiled and said nothing. After that, the two chatted some more. Qi Yunzhou saw that the time was almost up and said goodbye.
Before leaving, the Crown Princess ordered a palace attendant to bring a food box and hand it to Qi Yunzhou, who asked in surprise: "This is it?"
The Crown Princess said: "It's just some pastries. Senior Brother Fang has been falsely accused and imprisoned. It's not easy for me to visit him, so I have to trouble Senior Brother to go instead."
Qi Yunzhou shook his head and sighed, and said: "Junior sister, Lao Fang is already unlucky enough, why can't you change his position?"
Thinking of his junior brother Fang Huayu, Qi Yunzhou couldn't help but said: "In order to force him to become an official, you kidnapped his wife and children. If he didn't obey, you killed them. Later, you kidnapped his old mother and forced him to do so out of filial piety.
If you don't become an official, you will commit evil."
After listening to Qi Yunzhou's words, the princess's smile finally changed slightly. She lowered her eyes slightly, and her smart eyes were instantly filled with sharp edges.
The Crown Princess raised her face slightly and said softly: "If it were up to me to handle it, there would be no one left alive in Senior Brother Fang's family. Now those people have left his mother as a hostage, forcing him to act like a puppet.
, on the contrary, it looks like a small family."
Qi Yunzhou raised his eyebrows and glanced at the Crown Princess, and said quietly: "In this case, does Lao Fang have to thank Junior Sister for not taking care of him personally?"
The Crown Princess raised her eyebrows and smiled, and the unhappiness she felt just now disappeared instantly, as if it had never appeared before. She smiled and said, "Senior Brother, speaking like this will hurt my heart."
"Junior sister is joking."
Qi Yunzhou chuckled, then opened the food box and took a look. There were indeed some exquisite pastries inside. He picked up a piece, smelled it, and said casually: "Junior sister, you won't poison it, right?"
The Crown Princess covered her mouth and chuckled: "Senior brother always likes to joke like this, how could I behave like this?"
Qi Yunzhou muttered, "I don't think so. It wouldn't be strange if junior sister suddenly had a sudden impulse and killed Lao Fang to cheer her up."
Then, Qi Yunzhou put the piece of pastry into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it. His expression was slightly startled at first, and then turned into one of surprise.
This pastry was smooth in the mouth. There was indeed a lot of stuff in it, but it was not harmful. Instead, it had a great tonic effect. After eating it, he felt a sense of relief in the meridians in his body.
After feeling it, Qi Yunzhou asked curiously: "Junior sister, could it be that she has changed her gender and finally remembered the friendship of classmates? How rare it is."
"presumptuous!"
It was the maid behind the Crown Princess who scolded her. Qi Yunzhou repeatedly made sarcastic remarks, but she couldn't stand it anymore. She wanted to humiliate her to death, and she couldn't tolerate the other party's continued arrogance.
The maid gave a sweet scold, and came from above. The energy of her Dantian was accumulated in the palm of her hand, and she concentrated 10% of her palm power to hit Qi Yunzhou. The wind from her palm swept around, sweeping all the tables and chairs below into the air. The wind was strong, like a ghost.
Cry and howl.
The maid took action boldly and slapped Qi Yunzhou on the chest. The whistling force of the palm shook the palace door like fallen leaves in the cold wind. It let out a squeaking whine and looked like it was on the verge of collapse.
But what is shocking is that this fierce palm hit the vital point, but Qi Yunzhou did not move at all, and did not even frown.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In the maid's shocked eyes, Qi Yunzhou's movements never stopped. He repacked the food box, then took a step to the side and got out of the way.
The maid turned towards the Crown Princess who was smiling deeply and bowed respectfully.
"Since it is a great gift from junior sister, senior brother dare not disobey, so he will run errands for junior sister."
The Crown Princess seemed not to have seen the scene just now. She smiled and said, "Then I'll leave it to my senior brother."
Qi Yunzhou picked up the food box and turned to leave. The maid turned around reluctantly and bowed: "Your Highness, could it be that you let this person go so easily?"
The Crown Princess didn't seem to take the maid's words to heart. Instead, she looked at the retreating figure outside the palace and murmured to herself: "Senior brother's skills are becoming more and more profound."
"Your Highness!" The maid raised her head anxiously.
"Okay," the Crown Princess waved her hand lazily, interrupting the other party's words, and asked instead: "How is the matter that I asked you to check last time?"
The maid lowered her head in disappointment. After waiting for a while, she changed her face to a calm one and replied slowly: "The person who ordered Han Cheng to take action has already admitted that this is an order from the north.
Compared to us, he seems to be more willing to go to that side."
"Then send him away. I can't keep him here." The Crown Princess said calmly.
The maid hesitated for a moment and asked: "Send the person over, or the body?"
The Crown Princess shook her head: "So what if I kill him alone? It will only make him more fearful of me."
"Slave, I understand." The maid responded and then left.
At this moment, she heard the Crown Princess behind her again, and suddenly asked: "By the way, Commander Meng, is he really dead?"
The maid was slightly startled, then turned around and knelt down again to answer: "Back to Your Highness, the news sent back by Dharma King Youyun did indeed say that everything was done in accordance with your instructions."
"That's good. It's a pity that this rare understanding person in the Xuantian Sect was lost in the hands of Jin Yiwei without knowing it." After saying that, the Crown Princess was silent for a while and then said: "Okay, please step back.
