Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night in the palace. Even if the palace lanterns are bright, the light seems unable to penetrate this inexplicable gloom.
"Are all the envoys safe?"
In the imperial study room, Emperor Jing could not find any outlet for his joy or anger.
Eunuch Chen next to him suddenly had a subtle expression on his face, and looked at Emperor Jing cautiously, "The envoys from the big countries didn't go out, but the envoys from the small countries went to eat, drink, whore, and gamble one by one. Still, they were full of talk.
If it’s pure.”
Eunuch Chen didn't want to say it, but his loyalty did not allow him to hide it.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Jing immediately raised his head and looked at Eunuch Chen.
Eunuch Chen was stung by Emperor Jing's eyes and immediately lowered his head, not daring to look at him.
"If it's dirty? Say it!" Emperor Jing already had some idea in his mind.
Eunuch Chen had been with Emperor Jing when he was still a prince. Naturally, he knew that Emperor Jing was a sign of anger, and he did not dare to hide it. He could only bite the bullet and reply, "It is said that Dajing's sky... is... it is a photo...
His Royal Highness the Prince Regent."
When Emperor Jing heard this, his already droopy eyes narrowed sharply, reflecting a cold light inside.
He raised his hand and waved, and the golden sleeve robe immediately waved the memorial on the table to the ground.
The things on the table "crackled" fell to the floor.
The memorials scattered on the ground were also stained with black ink... they were all messy.
Eunuch Chen's knees suddenly softened and he immediately knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, calm down! Your Majesty, calm down!"
"Calm down?" Only in front of the eunuch who was absolutely loyal to him, he would release his repressed self a little. During today's trip to the garden, he had swallowed up so much humiliation.
Yes, you still need to calm down.
Emperor Jing is still Emperor Jing after all.
As if the previous anger was an illusion, his brows and eyes had returned to calmness, and he sat down again with a puff of sleeves.
"Over there in the Northern Desert?"
Just as I was asking about this, an eunuch outside said respectfully, "Your Majesty, Your Highness the King of Qi would like to see you."
"Let him in."
"yes."
Soon, Changsun Jue appeared in the imperial study. Eunuch Chen knew that they must have something to say, so he led everyone out.
"Father, the origin of the secret passage at the bottom of the lake has been determined. It is in an ordinary forest on the outskirts of the city. There are fresh blood stains in the secret passage. I think that the man who destroyed the ship hiding in the lake left through that secret passage."
"only……"
Emperor Jing sneered, "It's just that the presence of fresh blood means that the person was injured. But if Ling Jing hurt him, Ling Jing must have said it early. However, Ling Jing's reaction at that time was not like finding someone else at the bottom of the lake."
"So, the person who hurt that man could only be the young prince of the Regent's Palace - Changsun Qing!" It couldn't be Yin Li, the young prince of Southern Xinjiang who couldn't float on water. Emperor Jing came to the conclusion directly.
He wasn't too surprised that it was his eldest grandson Qing who hurt someone. Although this child had appeared frequently recently, it was taught by the regent. Even if he was only five years old, it was really not unusual for him to hurt someone.
Then he asked, "Did you find out your identity?"
Changsun Jue frowned, "There should be someone outside the exit to help. The blood trail suddenly stopped at the exit. There are no clues about Erchen's people yet."
"If you haven't found it, don't check it. Of course, someone will check it." Except for the fact that there was a secret passage at the bottom of the lake, Emperor Jing didn't care at all.
Those three people, in the final analysis, had nothing to do with him.
However, Changsun Jue is still unsure about one thing, especially after a series of events during today's visit to the garden. "Father, have you ever thought about the true origin of Changsun's love?"
Since the regent must be a eunuch, the child cannot be his biological child.
So the origin...
Emperor Jing narrowed his eyes slightly, "You mean, it has something to do with Ling Jing?"
Changsun Jue's eyes were dark and bottomless, "Ling Yanran would not deceive her children." That's the same sentence. Although I don't know what methods she used at the birthday banquet before, the mothers who took the test returned to the palace.
I was questioned, but nothing unusual was found.
What's more, there was also Prince Gong's concubine who went in with him at that time.
Therefore, no one else speculated on that bold and absurd idea. But he was different!
The look in Emperor Jing's eyes was unpredictable, thinking about the closeness between the child and Ling Jing.
Changsun Jue further revealed the conjecture that could shock anyone on the spot, "If more than five years ago, the child in Ling Jing's belly had been successfully born alive..."
Then who is that child?
Emperor Jing and Changsun Jue looked at each other silently.
——Chang Sunqing!
Otherwise, how to explain that their regent, who is not a womanizer, treats Ling Jing so specially!
The eldest grandson Qing is Ling Jing’s child, and the eldest grandson Wuji knows that he is her child.
Otherwise, why would he cut out Princess Ningyang's tongue for her during the spring hunting party between two people who had never crossed paths before?
Emperor Jing's eyes were filled with darkness.
After a long while, he said without guessing, "Don't get involved in this matter for the time being."
"My son knows."
Emperor Jing looked up at him again, "What's going on in the Northern Desert?"
Upon hearing this, the viciousness in Changsun Jue's eyes flashed away.
Emperor Jing frowned slightly. In his opinion, apart from her status as the Princess of the North Desert, Tuobaliya, the Princess of the North Desert, was not worthy of any of his sons, let alone the son he was most focused on.
However.
The faces of their father and son have been completely disgraced today!
Without waiting for Chang Sun Jue to speak, he added, "Since you have taken a fancy to it, you must firmly hold what should be in your hands. Otherwise, you would rather destroy it than keep it!"
Regardless of whether this son was for the purpose of consolidating his power or for the crown prince's position, in short, he was satisfied with the marriage with Bei Mo. Although, the Bei Mo Princess could not catch his eye at all.
But don’t make a wedding dress for someone else!
A trace of gloom flashed across Emperor Jing's eyes.
"I understand." Changsun Jue didn't know that the one million taels of gold 'Phoenix Tail' Qin was not given in vain!
"Father, it has been confirmed that although Bei Mo left early today, among the heads brought by the Nine Emperors Uncle's people, there are also spies from Bei Mo."
Emperor Jing sneered, "Bei Desert has always been full of greedy slobbering tigers and wolves!"
When the internal problems are resolved, how can he let go of this covetous foreign threat?
Marriage, of course, only temporarily stabilizes the situation! They are just using each other for the time being!
Changsun Jue's eyes flashed with a faint light. One day, he would skin that tiger and wolf!
at the same time.
In a certain room in a pink-scented flower building in Kyoto.
After the girls accompanying the wine went down, the expressions of lust and pleasure on the faces of the foreign ministers who had been indulging in wine and sex in the room instantly faded away. They looked at the silhouette that had appeared behind the screen at some point. One of them lowered his voice and said angrily.
, "Our country spent so much effort to install the spies, but today they were destroyed in one fell swoop! It was you who said that we would not lose anything to us, but now!"
