Chapter 797: Revisiting the Office of the Ministry of Personnel
"It's all your fault! It's all your fault!"
On the way back, Manager Lu'er angrily kicked the calf of a guest of the house and shouted angrily: "I'll let you offend the princess, I'll let you offend the princess!"
After being kicked seven or eight times in a row, Wen Qi couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily: "Boss Lu'er, where did you offend the princess?"
Hearing this, Lu'er said angrily: "Although the princess never showed it, she was unhappy. It was all caused by your questions... What was the purpose of asking those questions?" Then, she forced
Take a step forward and squint your beautiful eyes
He threatened: "Let me tell you, Princess Yulong is my young lady's eldest sister-in-law. His Highness loves the princess very much. Therefore, the princess's opinion may determine whether my young lady can become Princess Su. If it is because of your relationship... hum,
I will never forgive you!"
As soon as he heard the topic in this women's circle, Wen Qi's head was as big as a bucket, and he had to apologize again and again: "Okay, this thing is all my fault, I am all my fault. I will go back and apologize to His Highness Prince Su, and I will not be implicated."
When we get to Lu'er, the manager and your lady are settled, right?"
Hearing this, Lu'er wanted to say something more, but suddenly a voice came from behind him: "The two of you in front of me, please stay."
Lu'er turned her head angrily, but when she saw clearly who was coming, the anger on her face subsided, and she saluted respectfully: "Captain Wang Zongwei."
It turned out that the person who called Lu'er and Wen Qi to stop was Wang Jian, the clan guard chief beside King Yi Zhao Yuanli, who had just accompanied Princess Yulong.
"Miss Lu'er." Wang Yan nodded towards Lu'er, then smiled and said, "Miss Lu'er, can you let Wang and Mr. Wen have a private chat?"
Lu'er looked at Wen Qi, then at Wang Jian, and said in a low voice: "Captain Wang Zongwei, Wen Qi is just a new member of our family, His Royal Highness Prince Su. If there is any offence, can Lu'er teach him a lesson for Captain Wang Zongwei?"
good?"
After hearing this, Wen Qi glanced at Lu'er in surprise. With his intelligence, he couldn't tell that Lu'er was trying to protect him. Otherwise, there was no need for her to deliberately mention the new retainer of Prince Su.
This sentence.
This girl really has a good heart...
At this time, recalling Zhao Hongrun's evaluation of Lu'er when he comforted him two days ago, Wen Qi, who had scoffed at it at the time, now vaguely believed it.
He couldn't help but have a good impression of Lu'er, even though this sharp-tongued little girl had scolded him to shame and anger, kicked him in the calf more than once, and trampled his reputation as a scholar under her feet many times...
…
Wang Yan, who was opposite him, also understood the hidden meaning of Lu'er's words and said with a smile: "Thank you, Miss Lu'er, for reminding me. Even if he is a valued guest of His Highness Prince Su, how dare Wang dare to offend Mr. Wen? Wang is just
I just want to chat with Mr. Wen for a few words... With the relationship between my prince and your highness, is it possible that Miss Lu'er still can't trust Wang?"
Seeing that Wang Jun had revealed her meaningful words, Lu'er's pretty face turned slightly red, and she quickly saluted and said: "How dare Lu'er doubt Captain Wang Zong... Then, Lu'er will leave first." After that, she gave it to him.
Wenqi looked at himself with a self-conscious look and walked away to the other end of the path alone.
After watching Lu'er's leaving figure for a while, and seeing her figure disappearing behind the rockery in the courtyard, Wang Yan turned to look at Wen Qi and asked coldly: "Mr. Wen, what exactly did you ask Her Highness the Princess about just now?"
Purpose?"
At this time, Wang Yan's face did not look as kind and friendly as when he treated Lu'er. His face was expressionless and his eyes were cold, which was really scary.
However, Wen Qi was not afraid of him, even if he thought about it, this was a student who had the courage to cheat in the examination hall to take revenge on the imperial court.
"Captain Wang Zongwei, right?" Wen Qi curled his lips and smiled, and said meaningfully: "I just find it strange that Prince Yi returned to Daliang at this time and came to see Prince Su immediately after entering the city.
Where is Your Highness?"
"At this time?" Wang Jun heard the word that was deliberately emphasized in Wen Qi's words, and his heart moved slightly. He frowned and said, "Are you referring to the murder of Zhou Yan, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice?"
"..." Wen Qi smiled but said nothing.
Seeing this, a trace of doubt flashed across Wang Jun's face, and he couldn't help but recall the time he was in Sanchuan a few days ago.
That day, they originally planned to go to the Qingyang Tribe, but for some unknown reason, Zhao Yuanli suddenly changed his mind and insisted on returning to Daliang.
Could it be that note...
Wang Yan's heart beat twice.
In fact, he knew very well that although he, Wang Jian, was the chief of the clan guard of King Yi Zhao Yuanli, there were actually many things that Zhao Yuanli kept hidden from him. In fact, there was actually another group of powerful people under this prince.
manpower……
But because Zhao Yuanli never mentioned it on his own initiative, Wang Juan just pretended not to know, because he was Zongwei, and Zongwei meant loyalty.
While Wang Jun was deep in thought, Wen Qi was also carefully looking at the head of the clan guard of the Sixth Prince in front of him.
Wen Qi felt very surprised, because he judged from Wang Jun's expression that the Zong Wei Chief didn't seem to know much about his prince. Otherwise, when he said this, he would either be shocked or angry, or laugh at him, so he wouldn't
Show a thoughtful look.
Perhaps noticing Wen Qi's gaze observing him, Wang Jian calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Wen, Wang saw that you are a newcomer to Prince Su's Mansion, so there is something he wants to tell you...His Royal Highness Prince Su Qiba."
When I was 2 years old, I met my prince and we have been as close as my father ever since.
Son, so no matter what, the prince will not do anything detrimental to His Royal Highness Prince Su... Mr. Wen's heart to protect the Lord is commendable, but this precaution is really unnecessary...Wang doesn't want it either, because Wen
The relationship between you, sir, caused some bad blood between His Royal Highness Prince Su and my prince."
"..." Wen Qi pondered for a moment after hearing this, and did not refute Wang Jian's words. After all, the relationship between Zhao Yuanli and Zhao Hongrun, before Zhao Hongrun left the palace, he had secretly asked Zongwei Mu Qing, and it was indeed as Wang Jian said.
General.
Seeing that Wen Qi seemed to be thinking about what he said, Wang Jun nodded secretly with satisfaction, cupped his hands and said, "That's all Wang said, I hope Mr. Wen will take care of himself... Mr. Nao Nuo is very sorry, and I hope Mr. Wen will forgive me.
Farewell."
"..." Wen Qi also cupped his hands and watched Wang Yan leave.
King Yi Zhao Yuanli... It seems that there is indeed something wrong with this prince, but... should I tell Zhao Run?
Wen Qi let out a breath, a look of struggle flashed across his face.
At the same time, Zhao Hongrun and his uncle Zhao Yuanli, the Sixth Prince, were riding in a carriage on their way to the official office of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
On the way, Zhao Hongrun told Uncle Liu Wang exactly what happened in the case. Even the matter of Yu Yan was revealed to Zhao Yuanli after some hesitation.
Of course, what he revealed was another version, that is, the version in which Tong Xin, the right commander of the Gongwei Si, killed Yu Yan.
After all, the relationship between Zhao Hongrun and his father is no longer as cold as it was back then. Therefore, even though Zhao Hongrun knew very well that Yu Yan was ordered to be killed by his father, or even killed by his own hands, he did not want the truth to be told from his mouth.
After hearing Zhao Hongrun's revelation, Zhao Yuanli fell into a long silence.
"Uncle Liu, what are you thinking about?" Seeing Zhao Yuanli not speaking for a long time, Zhao Hongrun asked in confusion.
Hearing this, Zhao Yuanli glanced at Zhao Hongrun with a smile and said, "Hongrun, my sixth uncle is also very happy to see you and your father abandon their past feud..."
Zhao Hongrun was stunned for a moment, and then said unnaturally: "What did Uncle Six say? The relationship between me and the old man is still very tense at the moment."
"Haha." Zhao Yuanli laughed twice but said nothing.
He knew in his heart that Yu Yan's death must be closely related to Emperor Wei.
With Zhao Hongrun's intelligence, he must have guessed this matter, but since he chose to conceal it, it meant that Zhao Hongrun had gradually accepted the father of Emperor Wei, who already had an important position in his heart.
This made Zhao Yuanli feel slightly disappointed.
After all, although Zhao Hongrun is said to be the son of his Fourth Prince brother Zhao Yuanxi, the current Emperor of Wei, Zhao Hongrun has been following Zhao Yuanli for seven years, and regards him as the object of admiration, and keeps saying that he wants to be like his sixth uncle when he grows up.
Being a dandy prince made Zhao Yuanli fall in love with his nephew more and more, so much so that he later treated his nephew as his own child.
Just as Zhao Yuanli's clan chief Wang Jian said to Wen Qi, Zhao Yuanli does have a lot of secrets, but he has never done anything detrimental to Zhao Hongrun, not in the past, not now, and never in the future, because in
In Zhao Yuanli's heart, there is actually no difference between Zhao Hongrun and his son, except that he is not his biological child.
But now, feeling that the relationship between Zhao Hongrun and his biological father has gradually become harmonious, the Sixth Prince, who has no heirs and has always regarded Zhao Hongrun as his own, will naturally feel disappointed.
That’s fine too…
After thinking for a moment, Zhao Yuanli said to himself secretly.
At this time, Zhao Hongrun also felt the strange atmosphere and was secretly worried.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and changed the subject and asked: "Sixth Uncle, do you know that some of our armies in the Wei Dynasty use loyalty as their slogan?... Before Yu Yan died, he seemed to be shouting loyalty. I doubt it.
Loyalty? That's not... how could it be? Is it really...
With all kinds of thoughts going through his mind, Zhao Yuanli shook his head and said hesitantly: "Well... Uncle Six is not sure. As far as Uncle Six knows, the Sixth Battalion of the Garrison doesn't seem to use the word loyalty as a slogan, right?"
If Wen Qi were here right now, he would definitely notice something different about Zhao Yuanli's expression. Unfortunately, Zhao Hongrun and his clan guards in the carriage all trusted Zhao Yuanli very much, so no one paid attention to Zhao Yuanli's expression.
"Your Highness, the official department has arrived."
After the carriage slowly stopped, Zongwei Lu Mu, who was driving the carriage, shouted outside.
"Yes." Zhao Hongrun responded, and then said to Zhao Yuanli: "If I guessed correctly, Lord Zhou Yanzhou, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, must have left some clues in the official department before he was killed, which could identify the murderer.
Clues to Party Identity.”
With that said, he got off the carriage.
Following Zhao Hongrun, Zhao Yuanli also got off the carriage and looked up at the palace in front of him.
At this moment, he felt quite uneasy.
Could it be...those people?
Uncle Liu Wang thought to himself. (To be continued.) 8
