The most powerful minister in the world

Chapter 241 Rumors of Improper Position

Feng Zhuoyi wiped his face and kept trembling: "You, you, people say you are arrogant, domineering and lawless. In the past few months of getting along with me, I thought people in the world were wrong. I didn't expect you, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, are really I betrayed you!"

"You must be sick, I didn't say I wanted to kill her."

Jing Xi caressed the jade pendant: "There is a nunnery outside the capital. When the time comes, just kidnap the people and send them there to hide."

"You said I'm sick, so you're the only one who's sick. My second son, I'm afraid that all the officers and soldiers in the city will search from house to house. How can I hide it?"

Mu Sheng, who had been silent for a long time, stuffed the wet handkerchief back into his long sleeve and murmured: "Maybe it can be hidden there."

Although Feng Zhuoyi didn't have much interaction with Mu Sheng on weekdays, as a person of Mu Sheng, and now that he has said so, there is probably something in it.

"According to rumors, the host of that nunnery is His Majesty's wet nurse..."

Feng Zhuoyi slumped on the chair and said vaguely: "Is it possible that the rumor is true?!"

Since ancient times, imperial power struggles have been full of cruelty and bloodshed.

Rumor has it that the late emperor could not decide who would be the heir apparent between Qianyang Yungong and Annan Wang Yunjie.

In terms of talent, the two are equally matched, and in terms of controlling and governing the country, the two are indistinguishable.

Just when it was most critical to win the heir apparent, the Jing family army sided with Yun Gong.

But this is still not enough to settle the matter.

Until the late emperor suddenly became ill and the dragon soul passed away, the situation in the court was in turmoil and many forces started to turmoil.

The imperial edict stated that the throne was passed to Yun Gong, and Yun Gong also ascended the throne with the support of the Jing family army.

But I don’t know when this story began to spread among the people.

It is said that Yun Gong teamed up with the wet nurse who was favored by the late emperor to poison him to death, and the edict of passing the throne was just fabricated out of thin air, so the rumors that the throne was obtained improperly have been spread to this day.

According to legend, this wet nurse was born with a charming body. When she was working as a female official in the palace, she was forcibly visited by the late emperor, and she held a grudge...

Jingxi waved his hands and said, "It's an old score. The adults in the family won't talk about it, so we can just treat it as a joke."

Feng Zhuoyi drank a large glass of water and said, "How did the second young master meet..."

"If you're done with it, just tell me whether you want to do it or not!"

Feng Zhuoyi pouted and said: "My family has been silent for many years. I don't have much ability in Jiangnan, a place where I was born and raised, and I have no friends in the capital and am nothing. How can I help you?"

Their Feng family had ceased to be as prosperous as it had been more than ten years ago, and only the ancestors of her natal family still had some residual power.

But who would have expected that Jingxi suddenly walked up to him and put a hand on his shoulder with a strange smile...

The next morning, Jingxi was feeding the fish by the pond. They had been discussing it until evening yesterday.

When Jingxi just returned to the yard last night, he saw that there was still light in Lian'er's room, so he thought about sneaking in.

When he reached the edge of the bed and was about to take off his shoes and go to bed, he saw that the charming beauty under the bed was Liu Ningmei, who was only wearing a cream-yellow undershirt.

He was so frightened that he ran out without even wearing any shoes.

These two girls must have discussed it!

Just when he was gnashing his teeth and thinking about how to punish Lian'er, there was a rapid knock on the door, which startled the fish that were eating and dived out of sight.

Li Dongyang appeared and bowed: "Second Young Master, the imperial edict has arrived."

Jingxi threw all the fish food in his hands into the water, clapped his hands and walked over to open the courtyard door.

Facing him was Sun Liwei, the newly appointed governor of Jiangnan Province. The original governor was raped by Jing Xi. After all, the entire Jiangnan Province officials had undergone a lot of blood changes.

The newly appointed governor of Jiangnan Province was selected by the imperial envoy Wu Qingfeng to present the case to the court.

When Sun Liwei saw Jing Xi opening the door, he quickly bowed and greeted him, but he did not dare to offend the man in front of him at all.

"Second Young Master, I'm sorry for bothering you so early. It's just that the father-in-law who delivered the order has already arrived at the government office. I'm going to lower the official..."

Jingxi had already seen the three eunuchs behind him. The leader was wearing a blue eunuch uniform embroidered with a unicorn pattern. He was a general manager.

Seeing Jing Xi's eyes falling on him, Qin Shun, the eunuch chief who was out to deliver the order this time, immediately smiled and said, "We have met the second young master."

After saying that, he turned to Sun Liwei and said, "Okay, it's none of your business. Just go back home and wait."

The local officials always had their tails between their legs when they met the capital officials, not to mention Sun Liwei, who had received great luck, even bowed and nodded and retreated quickly.

Jingxi stepped aside and allowed the three father-in-laws to come in.

When the three of them stood still, Jingxi knelt down to receive the imperial edict. Qin Shun stepped forward to help him and said, "Hey, Second Young Master, there are no outsiders here. His Majesty also said that it was just an oral edict, but Second Young Master now He is also a serious official who has been sent to the outside world, so he issued an imperial edict."

The more Jing Xi looked at the eunuch, the more familiar he looked. He took the imperial edict and asked, "Eunuch Qin, have we met somewhere?"

Qin Shun raised his fly whisk and said, "Second Young Master has a good memory. On New Year's Eve, it was the royal meal sent by our family."

"Oh~~~I remember, my father-in-law makes a hard trip every year."

No wonder Jing Xi remembered him. As long as he was in Beijing, every New Year's Eve when His Majesty would reward him with holy food, it was this manager Qin Shun who went to Jing Mansion to deliver food.

I remember Jingxi asked his father specifically.

Seeing Jingxi receiving the imperial edict without saying a word, Qin Shun immediately squinted and said, "Okay, if our family wants to talk to the second young master, it doesn't matter. You two can follow the governor back to the Yamen first."

"Here~"

After the two gray-robed eunuchs left, Jingxi took Qin Shun's hand and sat down on the stone bench in the pavilion. As soon as he sat down, Yan'er came out and filled the table with fresh fruits and dried fruits, and brewed two more. Cup of fresh pre-rain tea.

After being glared at by Jing Xi, she pretended not to notice. Qin Shun grinned and praised, "Hey, Miss Lian'er has become more and more beautiful. Even His Majesty often mentions you~"

"My father-in-law has broken the curtain. Please try this tea."

Qin Shun took a sip: "Yeah! It leaves a lingering aroma in your mouth, refreshing your heart, great tea!"

Jingxi and Liang'er looked at each other and nodded: This should be one of them.

"Ahem, Eunuch Qin, why don't you ask me why I haven't read the imperial edict until now?"

Qin Shun chewed melon seeds, raised his lotus flower finger, and said with a smile: "Our family only delivers orders and doesn't care about the rest."

"Ahem, Eunuch Qin, does your Majesty know that Liu Ningmei..."

Qin Shun suddenly said: "What's wrong with Miss Liu? Isn't she always in the capital?"

"Ah hahaha, yes, yes."

Jingxi rolled his eyes secretly, being so conciliatory again.

Upon seeing this, Lian'er peeled an orange for Qin Shun and handed it to his hand. He smiled sweetly and said, "Eunuch Qin, we haven't been back to the capital for more than half a year. Is there anything new you can tell us?"

Qin Shun seemed to like Lan'er's appearance very much. He ate the tangerine in his hand and said with a smile: "Hey, our family has been in the palace all the time. We don't know much about those things. I just heard that Li Guogong's granddaughter returned to Beijing. Moreover, the Li Mansion is now protected by the City Patrol Department and the people from the Six Gates."

Lian'er wondered: "Ah, did Duke Li Guo commit something?"

"Look at what you are saying. Li Guogong is the leader of the six princes. He is so favored by His Majesty. How could he commit any crime?"

Qin Shun suddenly changed the subject and asked: "Oh, by the way, look at our memory, we almost forgot that the prince has given you another letter."

After saying that, he took out the envelope from his sleeve and pushed it to Jingxi.

"Tch~" Jingxi mocked while opening the envelope, "What the hell can this little brat hold in?"

Laner pushed him aside to signal him to stop talking nonsense.

Qin Shun laughed twice.

After reading the letter, Jingxi curled her lips and said, "I knew it wasn't a good thing."

After handing the letter to Lian'er to put it up, Jing Xi and Qin Shun started the communication mode of "you try to trick me, I'll make fun of you".

An hour later, Jingxi drank a large glass of water.

Today he has met the right person. This Qin Shun is very comprehensive, and he has never come up with any useful words.

"Okay, it's getting late. It's time for our family to go back to the government office to rest for a night before returning to the capital."

Jingxi stood up to greet him, took out a 10,000 tael silver note and handed it to Qin Shun with a smile: "My father-in-law, it's hard work. He finally traveled all the way to the south of the Yangtze River and didn't have much fun. Please bear with me. On."

Qin Shun said a few polite words without hesitation and put the banknote into his sleeve.

When Xiang Xiang arrived at the door, Qin Shun had already stepped out of the door with one foot.

Suddenly he turned around and said, "Oh, by the way, the handsome master has already broken camp and is on his way back to Beijing. He can arrive in Beijing in three days. Second Young Master, you...hehehe."

Looking at Qin Shun's retreating figure, Jing Xi punched the door hard with his fist.

Jing Lixiao's return to Beijing will mean which marriage is possible...
