Chapter 11 The Conspiracy under the Moon

At night, Chen Zhi was tangled in bed.

The reason is that the note that the old minister stuffed him was an invitation: Moon Passes Mid-Tian Fubiting.

He was wondering if the date would be canceled if there was no moon tonight?

Unfortunately, this assumption did not happen.

So when he was struggling to leave, whether to leave any clues or not.The last few times he went back to Tiangong, he used a double to sleep on the bed instead of himself, without leaving any traces, but this time the date was initiated by the old minister, and the error rate was very high. Two secrets; if you don't let it go, according to Cui Yan'ai's habit of creasing her quilt, she will be discovered soon.

After hesitating again and again, based on the stereotype of the old minister's incompetence, he still chose not to let go.

So, when the moon was big and bright, he quietly got up and climbed the window.Posted an invisibility talisman and walked smoothly all the way.

Approaching the Fubiting Pavilion, Chen Zhi had just withdrawn his invisibility, and found that this place was a trap.Fubiting, which is ventilated on all sides, is a feng shui house surrounded by walls and besieged on all sides. Whoever enters will be arrested.

He turned to leave, when he heard a pee-inducing "shush" sound behind him.

A bamboo raft slid out from under the Fubiting Pavilion.

Chen Zhi saw that they created such a date place by taking advantage of the geographical advantages of the Fubiting Pavilion built on the bridge and connected to the river, so he continued the tryst with his heart.

With bamboo poles as support, Chen Zhi jumped onto the bamboo raft with "difficulty".A pair of arms with Lanxiang encircled his body from behind, helped him to stand firm, and then quickly evacuated.

As soon as Chen Zhi turned his head, he saw a familiar face.

If you are familiar with it, it is also a general who is pulled out of the bag.

Yang Zhongju regarded Chen Zhi very closely during his lifetime.You have to know who you meet, who you know, who you joke with, and who you associate with.After a long time, those who want to get close to him will not get any benefits, but will also be blamed by Yang Zhongju.

This one in front of him is one of those people.

He is Chen Yingke's cousin by name, but he is not related by blood.Chen Yingke's biological mother was originally a court lady. After giving birth to a child, she was promoted to Liangdi and died not long after.After Chen Yingke came to the throne, Yang Zhongju made him a concubine in order to appease him.That was already a great favor, and the queen mother was going to give it to the former queen, who was the aunt of this cheap cousin.

Being able to produce a queen shows that the family background is extraordinary.

After Duke Guo, grandson of Grand Tutor and son of Shangshu—Nian Wuxia was born with a golden spoon, and he was destined to have a lifetime of glory.No matter how arrogant and domineering Yang Zhongju is, facing these deep-rooted old aristocratic families, he always has to save some face.Therefore, Nian Wuxia dared to go past Yang Zhongju to contact him. After a few times, he found that he was indeed a dead wood that could not be carved, so he broke contact.The status of the Nian family is detached. Since the emperor is hopeless, they don't have to put all their eggs in one basket to fight Yang Zhongju head-on.

He didn't know if there were Nian family members in Yang Zhongju's funeral list before he broke the city, but he didn't see them anyway, and he didn't expect to meet again, it turned out to be in the bridge hole in the middle of the night.

Nian Wuxia held a string of bean-sized night pearls in his hands, and bowed to Chen Zhi.

"Excuse me." Chen Zhi said while taking the Ye Mingzhu from Nian Wuxia's hand.

"..." Nian Wuxia was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I was afraid that the lights would attract attention, so I used night pearls to illuminate it. If it is inappropriate, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

Chen Zhi played with the beads: "It's indeed a good thing."

Nian Wuxia hurriedly said: "It is the good luck of this bead to please His Majesty, and only His Majesty's grandeur can keep the treasure from being dusted."

It is worthy of being produced by a century-old family. Elegance seems to be born with it. Even flattering against one's will is refreshing.Chen Zhi looked at Nian Wuxia's handsome face through the pearl light, smiled and said: "I haven't seen you for several months, Mr. Nian is becoming more and more likable."

This is quite frivolous.

However, Nian Wuxia accepted it calmly: "Your Majesty's heart for my ministers, I am ashamed to accept it! However, my heart for your Majesty is as clear as the sun and the moon, I hope your Majesty will not doubt it. Seeing your majesty trapped in a tiger's den, the ministers are anxious and restless day and night , I can only sacrifice my life to feed a tiger, just to earn an inch of life for His Majesty!"

Chen Zhi: "..." An inch of life is just to take a breath, and you will definitely die.

Nian Wuxia sighed: "Unfortunately, no matter how much we do, it will be useless."

Why does every play hard to get have a strong sense of hypocrisy?

Chen Zhi really wanted to know what would happen if he didn't follow the routine: "Since death is inevitable anyway, why don't we spend more time sleeping? There shouldn't be such a meeting at the expense of sleep."

……

Produced by a century-old family, elegance seems to be born with it, produced by a century-old family, elegance seems to be born with it, produced by a century-old family, elegance seems to be born with it...

During the period of Nian Wuxia's silence, these words seemed to circulate endlessly in the frozen air.

The place where they met was on a bamboo raft. Unless they were swimming, they had to rely on the boatman to prop up the bamboo raft.Nian Wuxia was not afraid of him running away, so he thought for a long time. When Chen Zhi yawned for the third time, he said, "Cui Yan started to attack the family. Uncle Yuyang, Marquis of Tongchuan, and Duke Yinshan were suppressed one after another. The mansion given by the imperial court cannot be kept, if this continues, even if we want to put all our eggs in one basket, we will be powerless."

Chen Zhi frowned and said, "Yin Monkey has also been suppressed?"

Although Nian Wuxia didn't know why Yin Shangong was "favored" alone, it was a good thing to have a reaction, and he said persistently: "Not only that, even the flowers and plants in the mansion were not spared, they were all looted."

Chen Zhi was speechless.Could it be that Cui Yan wants Gao Delai and Zhang Quan's army to eat grass?

Nian Wuxia believed that Chen Zhidao was stupid and didn't expect him to give advice, and said bluntly: "For the current plan, only Your Majesty will cooperate with us internally and externally to kill Cui thief!"

……

From the perspective of the lineup, it is indeed very reasonable to form a fairy to fight monsters, but there are many kinds of fairy-fighting type, tactical type... the cautious type.Anyway, he definitely does not belong to the first two.

Chen Zhi stroked Ye Mingzhu: "We need to have considerable strength to cooperate internally and externally. I'm the only one inside. Who can answer?"

Nian Wuxia said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, we have a perfect plan."

This meeting is a test for Chen Zhi.If he could not avoid the eyes and ears of the black armored soldiers and come here, they would not count him in the plan; since he came, they would naturally not let him go.

Nian Wuxia described his strategy impassionedly.

After hearing this, Chen Zhi had only one thought: he is still too young.

"What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Chen Zhi said: "Outside the city, there are Gao Delai and Zhang Quan watching."

Nian Wuxia said: "The King of Southwest has sent troops to serve the King. At that time, we will cooperate with the King of Southwest once again."

Chen Zhi: "..." Did he come here from the Raksha Kingdom to sell dolls?Inside and out, one set after another.

Nian Wuxia urged: "Tie Yang is dead, apart from Thief Cui, the world is in His Majesty's hands. What worries does Your Majesty have?"

Chen Zhi said, "I still have to think about the kidnapping of Cui Yan."

Nian Wuxia secretly scolded him for being cowardly, and encouraged him with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. How can I let you go into danger alone? At that time, I will definitely enter the palace in disguise to help Your Majesty."

Chen Zhi was annoyed by him, and he missed the benefits of Yang Zhongju.When Yang Zhongju's power and interests are not involved, he is still easy to talk to, but if he shows any dislike for his courtiers, Yang Zhongju will immediately transfer that person out, even if he goes to Beijing to report on his work, he has to make a detour.

Without Yang Zhongju, he had no choice but to agree perfunctorily.

Nian Wuxia said worriedly: "If thief Cui knows about His Majesty's deal with us, it may be bad for you. Please, Your Majesty, don't relax your vigilance and show joy."

Chen Zhi smiled and said: "Don't worry, this kind of thing will never happen." Because... why do you like it?

Before leaving, Nian Wuxia claimed that Ye Mingzhu's target was too big and would be easily exposed, and wanted to let him "release" temporarily, but Chen Zhi vetoed it.Chen Zhiyu was very upright: "Don't worry, I will be buried in a place where no one can find it except me." Cosmos bag.

Nian Wuxia: "..."

After bidding farewell to Nian Wuxia and returning to Qianqing Palace, before entering the gate of the palace, he had a premonition that he was about to be caught.After crossing the threshold, seeing Cui Yan wearing a cloak and reading a book under the lamp, she knew that she was right.

"Cough cough." Chen Zhi coughed.

Cui Yan put down the book, looked up at him, and said expressionlessly: "Your Majesty, why don't you wear an extra layer of clothes when you visit the imperial garden at night? If you catch the wind and cold, wouldn't it be our servants?"

Chen Zhi said, "I thought I'd go and come back quickly, so I didn't bother to put on my clothes."

Cui Yan's eyes sank: "Your Majesty thought he was going to go back quickly, but he didn't want to linger. It can be seen that this date with the beautiful woman must be very pleasant?"

This yin and yang emphasis is not as good as catching a rape in bed!

Thinking about it, Chen Zhi still said nicely, "It's just Nian Wuxia, what kind of beauty is she?"

Cui Yan said: "Young Master Wuxia in the capital is not considered a beautiful woman, so who can you keep in His Majesty's eyes?"

Chen Zhi said: "Sad tears."

……

Cui Yan pushed a bowl of hot soup on the table forward: "This ginger soup has been boiled several times, whether it's hot or cold, and I don't know how many times I've boiled it. I'm afraid the smell of ginger is gone, so drink it as hot water. Alright."

Chen Zhi drank it all in one gulp.

Cui Yan's face paled slightly: "It's late at night, Your Majesty should rest early."

Chen Zhi pulled the stool over and sat down: "You haven't asked me what we talked about together."

Cui Yan silently looked at him.

Chen Zhi immediately looked back.However, I regretted it when I saw it.Looking at the peach blossoms under the lamp, the eyes are charming, with autumn water, shining in the heart.

"Cough cough cough."

He cleared his throat and said, "We had a serious discussion about how we can kill you."

Cui Yan said: "Oh? How is it?"

Chen Zhi said: "First let me flatter you in every possible way, flatter you in every way, and obey you in every way. After you let go of your vigilance, I will join hands with Nian Wuxia, who came into the palace, and hold you hostage in one fell swoop."

Cui Yan raised her eyebrows and smiled: "The plan sounds very good. If you don't tell me, maybe it will happen."

Chen Zhi shook his head: "It's impossible."

"Why?"

"I can flatter you, flatter you, and obey you in every way, but I can never hold you hostage. So the plan has failed from the very beginning." Chen Zhi knew that going out tonight had already stabbed the suspicious Cui Yan in his heart. A thorn, he can only lower, lower, and keep lowering himself to win his trust.

Cui Yan really showed a smile: "Why don't you want to hold me hostage?"

This reason has been said a thousand times, and when I say it again, it is almost sweet, but Chen Zhi still insists on repeating: "Because you are the one in my heart, I am willing to entrust the country and never change it."

"Then why did you come to the appointment?"

Hearing Cui Yan's question, Chen Zhi knew that he had regained some trust, and hurriedly said, "It's your fault."

Cui Yan frowned: "Blame me?"

"Didn't you say that I'm more beautiful than a woman with 'Liu Meiming'?" Chen Zhi held his cheeks and sighed, "Wherever I go now, I worry about being molested."

……

Cui Yan said: "Then you shouldn't go to the appointment alone?"

Chen Zhixuan covered his mouth with tears in his eyes: "But, but, if I don't go, what if he takes advantage of no one and drags me to a corner, and treats me..."

"That's all." Cui Yan couldn't help interrupting, "I take back my previous evaluation of your appearance."

Chen Zhi immediately returned to normal: "I'm curious about his purpose, and I'm even more afraid that he's playing some tricks, which will be bad for you."

Cui Yan held his hand on the table and said softly, "I believe you."

For the sake of him saying "believe in himself", Chen Zhi resisted the urge to pull out his hand.

"However, I want you to follow the plan." Cui Yan said.

Chen Zhi said, "You want to deal with them?"

Cui Yan said: "These aristocratic families face Qin, Mu and Chu all day long, swaying from side to side like weeds on the wall. Surrendering to me today is just a matter of life and death. It is a last resort. When the Southwest King enters the capital, they will definitely turn against each other. Nian Wuxia's plan This is the best example. Instead of waiting for them to act and being passive, it is better to strike first."

Chen Zhi said, "What do you want to do?"

"Nian Wuxia regards you as a pawn, but I can praise you as a chess player." Cui Yan said, "From tomorrow onwards, I will let you be a pacification ambassador to quell the rumors in the city, and you can leave the palace at will."

Chen Zhi: "..." He just wanted to be a fake emperor quietly.

He declined, "I'm afraid I won't do well."

Cui Yan said: "The sky is falling, I will hold you back, what are you afraid of?"

Chen Zhi said truthfully, "I'm afraid of being tired."

"...Are you willing to be manipulated by a villain like Nian Wuxia?"

Chen Zhi tentatively asked, "What will happen if I say I am willing?"

Cui Yan insisted: "If you don't go, you have to go."

Chen Zhi: "..." Since this is the result, we should have said it earlier, so why put on a face of negotiating.

Cui Yan stood up and put the cloak on Chen Zhi's shoulders.

Chen Zhi complained: It's all gifts.They just loose a string of night pearls, and you just send an old cloak that was worn... Why is there such a big gap between people?

Cui Yan didn't know what he was thinking, and said softly, "I'll take you somewhere."
