After a house full of cannon fodder read my voice, the whole family went crazy.

【King Jing? How could he come back now? 】

Qiao Wanshu was stunned.

This person is very hidden in the original text and refuses to return to Beijing easily.

I was afraid that I would be plotted against by the emperor, and I would be detained in the capital from then on, and would never be free again until my death.

But he actually appeared now, which was really beyond her expectation.

"King Jing? Why is he here?"

The Ninth Prince heard Qiao Wanshu's thoughts, glanced at her calmly, and casually asked the guard why.

"King Jing declared that he was shocked that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince passed away at such a young age, so he rushed back to see him off. He also wanted to comfort the Emperor and Queen to show his sincerity."

This reason sounds like mere talk.

Not to mention that the Ninth Prince didn't believe it, even Qiao Wanshu didn't believe every punctuation mark in what King Jing said.

[This kind of person is too deep in the city, and lies come out of his mouth. You would be a fool to believe him! 】

Qiao Wanshu began to complain in her heart.

[If I remember correctly, that King Jing should be a king of the opposite sex from the previous dynasty. But at that time, he knew that he was keeping a low profile and settled in a corner of the border. He was very content. 】

[Later, in the early days of the founding of this dynasty, the world was in chaos, and he did not participate in the disputes. He even curbed his troops and closed the escape route for the remaining royal family of the previous dynasty, so the emperor stepped aside and preserved his clan and fiefdom. 】

[However, King Jing’s father was accused of unfounded charges because he unintentionally offended the queen’s mother clan, and forced the emperor to kill him. 】

[So King Jing secretly held a grudge and was not at odds with the queen's family, and even had thoughts of regaining the former dynasty. However, he has always hidden it very deeply, for fear that the emperor would catch him again. 】

[This sudden return to the capital must have some ulterior purpose! 】

Although the Ninth Prince's eyes were fixed on the file, his ears were always listening to Qiao Wanshu's inner voice.

Of course he knew King Jing's background very well, but he didn't know that this person also wanted to regain the previous dynasty.

"Your Highness, King Jing is also here to check the files on the Prince's case, but you are here first, so he also wants to meet you."

The guard added.

Qiao Wanshu guessed that this was the real purpose of King Jing's coming here.

"Meet me? I've never met him before. What's the need to meet?"

As soon as the Ninth Prince finished speaking, he heard Qiao Wanshu saying in her heart: [How come there is no intersection. Since King Jing is the king of the opposite sex in the previous dynasty, he must know your mother. Maybe it is because of this relationship that he wants to come to see you. 】

His heart moved, and he just changed his words.

"However, since he is considered an elder and is here to review the prince's case files, he cannot be avoided. It will also make people think that this prince does not understand etiquette."

So, while Qiao Wanshu was stunned, the Ninth Prince stood up and walked out calmly.

After walking a few steps, he turned around and looked at Qiao Wanshu.

"Anyway, I have read all the files. Come and say hello to King Jing. Then we should leave here and give these files to others."

"Oh, okay, then I'll go take a look too."

Qiao Wanshu also extended her hand to Sang Zhi.

Anyway, she was now "loaned" to the Ninth Prince, so naturally she would follow him wherever he went.

As soon as the Ninth Prince walked out of the file room, he saw a formidable-looking middle-aged man walking over in a hurry.

He has thick eyebrows, big eyes, a face with Chinese characters, and a wild beard. He looks more like a tough military general.

"Your Highness the Ninth Prince, haha, I finally see you."

He walked over with a big smile and actually hugged the Ninth Prince into his arms.

[What's going on? What's going on? 】

Qiao Wanshu watched from behind, dumbfounded.

No, she couldn't understand this plot unfolding mode.

[How do I remember that this King Jing hates the Ninth Prince very much, and the two of them are even incompatible with each other. But this King Jing... he is too enthusiastic about the Ninth Prince now! 】

Not to mention Qiao Wanshu being stunned, even the Ninth Prince himself froze.

He was reborn, and he knew very well what his relationship was with King Jing.

Not to mention that there shouldn't be any intersection between them at this time, even if they do, it's not a good fate.

So King Jing gave him a bear hug when he came up, which made him almost subconsciously want to fight back, but he finally suppressed his instinctive reaction.

"His Royal Highness King Jing, I have long admired you."

The Ninth Prince took a step back and held his hands as a gift.

King Jing didn't seem to mind the alienation shown by him, and even the eager smile on his face did not diminish by half.

"Haha, His Highness the Ninth Prince is too polite. After all, your mother and I are old acquaintances. Seeing you is like meeting an old friend, so I am a little too excited. Please don't mind, His Highness the Ninth Prince."

After hearing what King Jing said, the Ninth Prince and Qiao Wanshu were stunned at the same time.

The Ninth Prince's eyes were dark and unclear, with a cold light flashing.

He still avoids hearing people talk about his biological mother.

After all, as a former princess, she is too sensitive.

The entanglement with the current emperor has been criticized among the people.

Thinking of everything he had with King Jing in his previous life, it was really difficult for him to convince himself that King Jing's words would have any good intentions.

Qiao Wanshu was stunned because she thought of something that had been ignored for a long time.

[I remember that when Liu Zhan successfully usurped the throne and established himself as emperor, King Jing was the first to stand up and wanted to "kill the rebels and restore the right path." Later, I don't know why, but Liu Zhan was convinced. 】

[Later, he devoted himself to assisting Liu Zhan and even helped him put down many rebellions, large and small. Because of this, he became the first king with a different surname across three dynasties, and became a legend. 】

[I was very surprised by this paragraph at the beginning and couldn’t figure out why King Jing would help Liu Zhan. Now it seems that he has a close relationship with the Ninth Prince. 】

The Ninth Prince's ears moved and he heard all Qiao Wanshu's inner thoughts.

He was suddenly also curious about what Liu Zhan said to King Jing.

If it is under one's own banner, in what name is it used to pull off one's tiger skin?

"His Royal Highness King Jing has had a hard time returning to the capital this time. I wonder how long he will stay in the capital?"

His proactive inquiry seemed to flatter King Jing.

I was stunned for a moment, and then quickly responded: "When I come to Beijing this time, I have to catch up with the emperor. I will stay here for a while, and I am not in a hurry to leave."

"That being the case, I wish His Highness King Jing to live comfortably and peacefully in the capital. I have some things to do, so I won't be with you much. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will invite His Highness King Jing to have tea together."

The Ninth Prince showed sufficient etiquette and then expressed his intention to leave first.

Naturally, King Jing couldn't keep him any longer, so he actually sent him and Qiao Wanshu out of the Ministry of Punishment in person.

Sitting on the carriage, Qiao Wanshu couldn't help but turn her head and look back.

[It’s really strange. In what name did Liu Zhan use the Ninth Prince to convince King Jing? 】
