Time-traveling Bastards Are Politics

Chapter 227 Cold Mountain Jade

"That's true...then do you know who this person is?"

"Before the fourth prince went to Wenzhou, I asked the fourth prince to bring a letter to a friend. You know, my lord, that the fourth prince is gentle, so he would naturally agree. Later, when the fourth prince arrived in Wenzhou, he asked someone to bring a letter, and I said the letter had already been delivered, and the person who delivered the letter at that time was the one who assassinated me. You said, even if the fourth prince is so stupid, he would not send someone I have seen to assassinate me, right? And, at that time, the fourth prince When the prince brought the letter, he once vaguely mentioned to me that there are other people around him. On his way to Wenzhou, there were countless hardships and difficulties. There should be one of the four princes."

"What? Someone assassinated the prince? Is this true?"

"Of course, at that time, I couldn't help it. I thought, the fourth prince was so righteous, and I definitely couldn't just leave him alone. I even asked His Royal Highness the seventh prince to send someone to save the fourth prince! Unexpectedly, the seventh prince is also a A benevolent person actually agreed!"

"Nonsense! According to what you said, His Highness the Crown Prince wants to assassinate the Prince? His Highness the Crown Prince is already below one person and above ten thousand people, so why would he have such thoughts? Besides...the Crown Prince and Qing'er... "

"My lord... there is something... I don't know whether to say it or not..."

"Speak! There is no one else at the moment! You tell me, can I still kill you?"

"Actually... the little prince was ordered by His Royal Highness to assassinate the fourth prince when he went out for a long time... but he didn't succeed... and after the little prince came back, he has always had something on his mind... I don't know. Does it have anything to do with the assassination...Old prince, you also know that the little prince has been in contact with me...Maybe the person who came here is to assassinate the little prince..."

"What nonsense are you talking about?! Let me tell you, I heard it today. If someone else hears it, let alone your life, everyone around you will be buried with you! Be careful! Don't think that Fengwang Mansion After the matter is over, you can speak without restraint!"

"My lord, when did you become so careful? Standing shoulder to shoulder, king, are you also afraid of this? When did you generals who are so powerful on the battlefield and make the enemy fearful, you are afraid of getting into such a small trouble... ...My lord...If I hadn't been known to you for a long time, I would definitely not tell my lord these things today...It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. No wonder, now we can only use these vulgar things to soothe our cold hearts... Sigh..."

"you……"

"My lord, I know what you are afraid of, so I just told you that I will not ask you to investigate this matter. If you investigate this matter, I am afraid that the end will be the same as that of Fengwang Mansion. I don't want to drag you down. I Just to let you know the cause and effect. There are three most painful things in the world, bereavement of a father in childhood, loss of a wife in a young age, loss of a son in old age, I know, the old lord, you have all of them... So I can't let the little lord die unknown Not in vain... Please believe me... Although I am nothing now..."

"My lord, there are some things that can be resolved without your stepping back. The sage is suspicious, everyone knows that, let alone a hero, even a brother, he will not let it go... something happened to the little lord, you can't do it again." Something happened, if you trust me, you will leave this matter to me, I will definitely not let the little prince die in an unexplained way. But, you have to lend me a few people... This person must be someone you trust There can be fewer people, but it cannot be uncertain..."

"I understand this, but if you are like this, what can you find out? If you could find out, the Feng Prince's Mansion wouldn't be where it is today, right?"

"My lord, you will understand even if I don't tell you about the matter of the Feng Wang Mansion, but please believe me about the matter of the little lord. If I am arrested, I will become a traitor again. If you are arrested, this matter will be settled. I'm old, although you are alone now, but if something happens to you, who will avenge the little prince? I don't ask you to give me much help, I just ask you to protect yourself in this matter , you can only avenge the little prince if you protect yourself, and you won't let the little prince suffer innocent injustice."

"I'm very grateful that you think so. It's just that if this matter is as you said, it must involve a lot. I'm afraid you don't have that ability..."

"Don't worry, my lord. Some things can only be found out with a humble identity. Moreover, only I know the appearance of the assassin. If you ask others to investigate, you must also bring me. What is the difference between that and my own investigation? You Just believe me once, if I can't find anything, you will have time to go out. As you said, this matter involves a lot. Even if you investigate, it is impossible to find clues all at once. Why don't you let me, a grassroots Try it, if you can find something, it will be regarded as worthy of your trust. The little prince treats me like a younger brother, how can I do anything that is not good for you? If I am arrested, it is nothing more than thinking that I am a rebellious minister It’s just a thief. If you are arrested, I’m afraid it will cause turmoil in the government and the public, right? If one of your former subordinates, close friends over the years, speaks for you, I’m afraid that a big family will be implicated. This matter, just leave it to me, if I need someone, I will go to Wang Ye."

"Okay then. What's the matter with you, you just ask someone to come to your door, no one will check anything, but, you have to pay attention, don't be followed by someone, I will send someone over to give you some news regularly, If it is inconvenient for you to ask someone to go, just give the information to this person. In order to verify your identity, you keep half of it. If the person who comes can't take out the other half, you just kill him. I will take care of the rest If you can catch it and keep it alive, that would be the best, but I look at your body, if you want someone to live and tell the truth, I'm afraid it will be harder than death, so don't force it. Remember, be careful in everything You and I are well aware of the matter of the Fengwang Mansion, and I feel guilty for not saying a word at that time, but please understand my difficulties, I want to protect, not only me, not only Qinger, but also my brother. Big group of old comrades-in-arms, it is impossible for me to say anything, if you hate me because of this, then hate me, I have nothing to say, but this matter, you must be careful!"

"Thank you, my lord, for your concern. I have already guessed about the matter of Fengwang Mansion. I can't blame you. I understand your suffering. No matter what, I will not blame you. I will definitely be careful about this matter. Yes, don't worry, even if I lose my life, I will give the little prince a clean slate."

"Then I'll leave first. I can't stay any longer. You must remember that you cannot live in the restored Feng Prince's Mansion under any circumstances. Remember what I said, you must not live in it!"

"Even if you don't tell me, I won't go. I won't go to a place called recovery but actually under house arrest."

Thinking back then when she was king with Yizi, and thinking about it now, Feng Yong really felt sad.

Although I knew for a long time that the king of the word side by side did not believe me at all, but I never thought that I would not trust me so much.

Feng Yong sighed softly: "Alas..."

Bai Lan turned her head and asked, "What's wrong?"

Feng Yong took out an object that was still warm from her bosom, it turned out to be half of the Nine Dragons Jade Bi that was given to her by the King of Side by Side.

Bai Lan finally took a look: "This jade is warm and cool to the touch. It must be good jade. Where did you get this thing? It's only half of it?"

"Let me take a look." Jing Mo took a look, frowned and asked, "Is this Hanshan Jade, or the fineness of the tribute, Rui Jue's status is not enough, it should not be enough to reward this, where are you coming from?" of?"

Feng Yong smiled helplessly and said, "Where else did it come from? You also said that Lord Feng's position is not enough to reward this, and Wei Huaqing is not favored, so he would never have this. Of course, he is a king side by side. That is The token that the old prince gave me at the beginning, said that if there is any inconvenience, I can use this as a token to inform the news. Unexpectedly, it will not be used anymore. "

"He was willing to do so. Such a fine jade was actually split in half. It seems that your agreement at that time should be about the little prince, right?" Jing Mo sneered.

Feng Yong nodded: "You do know him well. At that time, I promised to help him find out the cause of the little prince's death. But now that the truth is revealed, we are strangers."

"You can't say that. If I were him, I wouldn't trust you completely. Because you have to know, he is an elder after all. You are single now. You are not afraid of heaven and earth. He can carry many people's wealth and lives behind him." "Jing Mo said coldly: "Although I have some contempt for his behavior, I cannot deny that if there is something that involves my whole family, I will do the same."

Bai Lan frowned and said, "Lord Jingmo, even though that's what he said, we have lived and died side by side with Yiziwang many times, and the people around him are also doing things for us. They are already on the same rope." Isn't this kind of distrust chilling our hearts? Not to mention anything else, even if we arrive in Wenzhou, we will try our best to help him, but what about him? He didn't care, you said if you were us, what would you think? To put it bluntly, we have been treated as donkeys with good intentions."

"Of course I know what you are thinking. I also said that I despise his behavior, but if it were the whole clan who was carrying the burden, I would become such a person. After all, the emperor cannot kill you, but the emperor will mess with him. Although he is alone, how many people follow him to fight in the north and south? If he falls, how many families will be destroyed, have you ever thought about it? Feng Yong said, he sympathizes with that bitch, the same, you use this idea, think about it With the word "side by side, king", you will understand what I want to say. I didn't ask you to look away, I just wanted you not to be too persistent." Jingmo said helplessly.
