Chapter 49 The Truth
"Zuo Ming?"
Guan Hongfeng knocked on the door, and when he entered the room, Zuo Ming was sitting at the table in a daze.
It wasn't that his eyes were dull, nor was his expression dull, Zuo Ming sat quietly with a cup of tea, Guan Hongfeng could tell at a glance that he was in a low mood.
"Why did you come back?"
Zuo Ming couldn't figure out King Ren's attitude. Now that King Ren and Mr. Xu closed the door and talked without knowing what to say, he was a little impatient and panicked. Seeing Guan Hongfeng who just came back, Zuo Ming couldn't help complaining, and even got angry: "I'm everywhere. Can not find you."
"Haha, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Guan Hongfeng touched his nose resentfully, and didn't say that he searched the entire venue to find him.
Zuo Ming stood up, feeling restless, and wanted to go for a walk.
"Hey, where are you going?"
"What? You know you need to report it?" Zuo Ming suddenly became sensitive, and Zuo Ming was a little suspicious. Did Guan Hongfeng monitor his movements and report to King Ren?
"No." Guan Hongfeng couldn't figure it out, Zuo Ming was rarely seen with such a temper, "What's the matter, what's bothering you?"
"All!" Zuo Ming regretted it as soon as the words came out, what kind of words are it like to spread his temper on others like this!What a shame.
Guan Hongfeng didn't care, and showed a gentle smile: "Don't be angry, I have something for you."
As Guan Hongfeng said, he stretched out his left hand, which was always behind his back, and handed Zuo Ming a palm-sized brocade box.
"what?"
"Look at it."
Zuo Ming took the brocade box, and inside lay a piece of clear-colored jade pendant, the pattern was simple and not complicated, and it was very satisfying to look at.
The color of the white jade suits Zuo Ming's wishes, but he will not be rewarded for his merits.Zuo Ming closed the brocade box and handed it back to Guan Hongfeng: "It's very beautiful..."
"You don't like it?" Guan Hongfeng pursed his lips, a little disappointed.
"You really want to send me?"
"It's for you!" Guan Hongfeng said anxiously, afraid that Zuo Ming would not accept it: "Didn't you just throw away a jade pendant..."
"But..." The jade pendant was expensive at first glance, Zuo Ming suddenly remembered something, "You didn't buy it at the Blue and White Fair, did you?"
Guan Hongfeng smiled embarrassedly, "It's not expensive..."
Zuo Ming didn't know what to say for a while, how could the price of Blue and White Club be so cheap?
"I can't take it." Zuo Ming muffled, and stuffed the box into Guan Hongfeng's arms.
Guan Hongfeng was suddenly anxious, and held Zuo Ming back to prevent him from going out, "I just thought it suits you, I bought it for you, if you don't want it, throw it away, don't give it back to me." After that, Guan Hongfeng sternly, I really threw the brocade box out.
"Hey! You!" Zuo Ming cursed inwardly, stretched out his hand to grab the brocade box, and seeing Guan Hongfeng's stubborn face, he couldn't help but feel helpless. "Then tell the truth, how much money did you spend?"
Guan Hongfeng kept his mouth shut, he knew he couldn't say anything, Zuo Ming gave him the money after talking about it, he didn't want money.
"Do not say?"
Guan Hongfeng shook his head.
Zuo Ming raised his eyebrows, as if he was annoyed, his angry expression made his whole body come alive, "If you don't tell me, then I won't accept it! I love it!" Zuo Ming said as if throwing the box.
Knowing that Zuo Ming wouldn't really lose it, Guan Hongfeng hurriedly apologized with a smile: "It's done, I told you that you are not allowed to give me money."
"Row……"
"Don't give it back to me."
"Can……"
"To wear..."
"I don't want any more trouble!"
"Okay, okay!" Guan Hongfeng quickly coaxed him again, "Not much, really, only 200 taels."
"Uh..." Looking at Guan Hongfeng, Zuo Ming put two big words on his face: I don't believe it!
"300 taels..."
Zuo Ming made another gesture to throw the box, this time it was even bigger, swinging his arms as if to hit someone.
"400 taels, 400 taels! Really! No more!" Guan Hongfeng promised solemnly, while reaching out to press Zuo Ming's hand, he took out the jade pendant from the brocade box: "I just want to give you something, so you can accept it." let's go."
The jade pendant was similar to Zuo Ming's previous one, but after losing the jade pendant, he also untied the rope that hung the jade pendant and threw it away, not knowing where to put it.
But the jade pendant given by Guan Hongfeng is matched with a black tether, which looks very nice together.Guan Hongfeng gestured with the jade pendant, and tied it on the leather belt for Zuo Ming.
Looking at it twice, Guan Hongfeng said with satisfaction: "It looks good..."
Zuo Ming lowered his head to look at it, and he really liked it in his heart, he tweaked it a few times, and said thank you bluntly.
Guan Hongfeng also breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Zuo Ming's expression, and asked him, "Have you eaten?"
Zuo Ming shook his head, he hasn't touched a drop of water since he came back.
"Then let's go eat." Guan Hongfeng walked out first.
Zuo Ming nodded in agreement, followed him out of the room, and met Eunuch Quan without taking two steps.
"Captain Zuo, Your Highness is here to invite you."
Zuo Ming was taken aback for a moment, and he replied vaguely, telling Guan Hongfeng to eat by himself, and then he followed Quan Gonggong.In just a few steps, Zuo Ming was so nervous that he was sweating, and his palms were clenched tightly.
"Left captain?"
"Huh?" Zuo Ming came back to his senses, the two stood at the stairs, Grandpa Quan called him several times, and looked at him worriedly. "Tell me." Zuo Ming said respectfully.
Eunuch Quan shook his head imperceptibly, "Speaking of which, I am older than you, and I see more about some things. Don't be offended by what I said, after all, the prince does not treat you as an outsider."
Eunuch Quan is reminding him?Zuo Ming was at a loss. Could it be that his undercover job was so obvious?
Walking into Chen Ke's room with a complicated expression, Zuo Ming found that Xu Qingfeng was not there.
"See Your Majesty."
"En." Chen Ke just responded in a low voice, and didn't tell him to get up, and didn't say anything else. Zuo Ming just knelt like this for a quarter of an hour.
"Know why I made you kneel?"
"I know." Zuo Ming didn't dare to raise his head, he answered whatever Chen Ke asked, respectfully, and didn't say anything else.
"Then how did you find the golden bell flower?"
"A few people guided me to go there, and I found it."
"Do you know what's in that flower?"
No matter how dull a person is, I'm afraid they can understand it, but Zuo Ming never thought that there was something wrong with the golden bell flower.
But after thinking about it, I regret it, who guarantees that all the things in the Blue and White Club are genuine?When he suddenly found a golden bell flower, he should first suspect that there is something wrong with that flower!
"There is a poisonous spider hidden in the flower."
Zuo Ming's eyes widened, and he suddenly raised his head, "My lord! This subordinate doesn't know! That flower, that flower..." The more anxious Zuo Ming became, the more he was at a loss for words, and he was very annoyed.
Zuo Ming's expression did not seem to be fake, so Chen Ke stopped asking.When Xu Qingfeng said he didn't have it, he already believed it, believed in Xu Qingfeng's subconscious actions of loving him, and believed that he would not harm him.But Chen Ke's tenderness is only aimed at Xu Qingfeng.
"How did you poison this palace?"
"Use incense." Zuo Ming said frankly, "The maid who bought the clothes used the incense made of golden bell flowers. The smell is very light and the effect is not strong, but..."
But over time, the root cause of the disease was finally buried.
"No antidote?"
"Master Xu only gave poison."
Although this result was expected, Chen Ke was still a little disappointed.
"When you enter the palace, I will treat you well. I will not pursue the past, but I will not keep you in the future."
Zuo Ming's face suddenly turned pale.
He was an orphan since he was a child, and the Xu family raised him and taught him martial arts, and he never criticized him for anything, and he accepted the task of entering King Ren's Mansion without a single complaint.
It's not difficult to be an undercover agent, if you treat King Ren as your master, you just need to serve him well.
At the beginning, he only thought that the undercover mission was extremely dangerous and might kill him, but Xu Kuining asked him to simply and ordinaryly monitor and not do anything else.
So he stayed by King Ren's side, changing from an ordinary guard to a hidden guard, from a hidden guard to the leader of the hidden guard, walking up step by step, higher and higher.
Zuo Ming entered the palace at the age of 20 and has served King Ren for the sixth year.
The Xu Mansion collapsed suddenly, all the family members were hacked, Zuo Ming didn't have time to react, and he didn't know what to do or where to go, so he had no choice but to stay by King Ren's side and maintain a peaceful life on the surface.
But he knew in his heart that King Ren might die soon.The secret was tormented repeatedly in his heart, and he didn't know what would happen in the future.
Looking at the people coming and going in the Taiheng Palace, Zuo Ming felt even more guilty and uneasy when he thought of the unknown fate of these people who lived with their heads up to King Ren.
He dare not live alone.
After the Xu Mansion fell, Zuo Ming stopped using the incense made of golden bell flowers, and silently estimated the time when King Ren's poison would occur.Unexpectedly, Xu Qingfeng suddenly appeared.
Things turned around again and again, and Zuo Ming accepted it passively.Zuo Ming knew better than anyone that the crime of assassinating the prince would be beheaded.
In all fairness, King Ren is a good master. He controls Yan Jin, appoints people on their merits, and never misses rewards from anyone during the festivals.Leaving the palace, this kind of punishment is the greatest kindness of King Ren.
Without begging for anything, Zuo Ming kowtowed three times.
Nimble and decisive, daring to act, Chen Ke actually admires such a person very much.His eyes fell on Zuo Ming's waist, and Chen Ke suddenly remembered that Guan Hongfeng always seemed to be holding such a jade pendant to caress before his rebirth.
"How much do you know about the Xu Mansion case?"
"My lord, very rarely, the Xu family has only contacted me three times in the past two years."
"Yeah." Chen Ke nodded, he didn't have anything else to ask, and waved him away.Suddenly remembered something again, and asked him: "You didn't let your master know about the decree from the capital, did you?"
Your master?My master?Zuo Ming was immersed in the emotions just now, he didn't realize it for a while, and when he did, he became stupid again. Since King Ren didn't want him just now, then this master...means Mr. Xu?
"Yeah." Nodding his head, Zuo Ming walked out in a daze, forgetting to salute.
Guan Hongfeng outside the door looked anxious, if he hadn't bumped into Eunuch Quan thinking about it alone, he wouldn't know what happened.
"You..." Looking at Zuo Ming's pale face, Guan Hongfeng didn't know what to say, he gritted his teeth and said, "If you leave, then I will..."
Eunuch Quan laughed and interrupted Guan Hongfeng, "Captain Zuo, Mr. Xu is in the room of Little Master Tianwen."
Although he is no longer King Ren's secret guard, Mr. Xu is his master, and Mr. Xu has such a relationship with King Ren, shouldn't he be kept in disguise?
Only then did Zuo Ming come to his senses, his face became bloody again, and he looked at Eunuch Quan gratefully: "Thank you, Eunuch Quan!"
Grandpa Quan covered his mouth and smiled, Guan Hongfeng didn't understand the situation, but he also smiled along with him, Zuo Ming couldn't help being delighted, and then remembered a big event:
The secret decree in the capital is to let King Ren go back to the capital, Mr. Xu didn't know it? !What should I do now, Mr. Xu is his master now!
Zuo Ming raised his eyes to see Tianwen's closed door, and suddenly felt heartbroken, King Ren will return to Beijing tomorrow!
Guan Hongfeng knocked on the door, and when he entered the room, Zuo Ming was sitting at the table in a daze.
It wasn't that his eyes were dull, nor was his expression dull, Zuo Ming sat quietly with a cup of tea, Guan Hongfeng could tell at a glance that he was in a low mood.
