Chapter 713
Due to the high land price in Lin'an, a spacious Juchang was built in the Jia Mansion by the West Lake.

The uncle and nephew who played Cuju this day were not very interested, they only played for a while, and then sat in the small pavilion by the lake to rest.

Zhao Jin was drinking a cup of agarwood boiled water, occasionally bulging his cheeks, showing some troubled look.

"what happened?"

"Uncle, tell me, why do people have to be born, grow old, get sick and die?"

This question was so difficult that Jia Sidao found it difficult.

As he stirred the tea in his hand, he felt that he was no longer as agile as he used to be.

I have not yet reached the age of knowing my destiny, and suddenly I am old.

Zhao Jin thought for a while, and then said: "Mother left early, father also left, even that bad woman is seriously ill, why did you leave me?"

Jia Sidao can answer this question.

He looked towards the West Lake, hesitated, but finally said: "Taiwan Yan is pretending to be sick."

"Really?" Zhao Jin was a little surprised, and said, "She won't die?"

"She wants to fake death and leave Lin'an."

"Why?" Zhao Jin thought for a while and asked, "Because it's too boring to be locked up in the princess mansion? Uncle knows everything."

"Your uncle is capable." Jia Sidao said casually, "Tave Concubine Yan wants to go to Hanzhong to find Li Xia."

"Why are you looking for Li Xia?" Zhao Jin asked again.

She always asks questions directly.

Jia Sidao hesitated again, pondering, feeling uncomfortable to answer.

He glanced at it for a while and saw the innocent eyes of his niece, and he didn't want to dirty her ears with those words.

"Princess also knows that Li Nizhi's alienation has been clearly revealed..."

"Is it because of a different surname? Did you misunderstand him?" Zhao Jin asked again: "If you can persuade him well and treat heroes well, is there any way to prevent him from rebelling?"

Jia Sidao hesitated for a while again, but failed to give an answer immediately, and finally said: "The princess is not ignorant of the official family's behavior."

"Well, Brother Huang is really..." After a long silence, Zhao Jin said: "Even though Brother Huang is like that, as a subject, you should persuade rather than rebel."

"In short, Li Ni is going to rebel." Jia Sidao didn't want to talk about this topic any more, and said: "Taifei Yan has always been Li Ni's party, so she is going to defect...Aren't you angry? She has been cheating and using the princess."

"A little angry."

Zhao Jin took another sip of the agarwood boiled water and looked at the West Lake, feeling really not in a good mood.

Jia Sidao turned his head and looked at the female guards standing outside the pavilion.

It was cultivated by the first emperor back then, and it was specially used to protect Zhao Jin.

"Is that Wang Cui?" Jia Sidao raised his finger and asked one of the guards.

Zhao Jin turned around and replied, "That's right, Wang Cui, you've got the skills."

"How about the princess doing something important for the country? Order Wang Cui to follow Dowager Yan into Shu and kill Li Xia."

Zhao Jin didn't agree, put down the tea bowl in his hand, thought for a while, and said seriously: "I don't care about the government."

"Princess, as the nobleman of the emperor, should do something for the society."

"Then I don't know if the bad girl is really going to enter Sichuan, if Li Xia is really rebellious, what if she kills the wrong person and causes an unjust case?"

"Don't you believe in uncle? Concubine Yan asks you to protect Guan Degu and she will do her best."

"That's the guarantor. If the bad woman wants to kill someone, and my uncle asks me to be the guarantor, I will definitely help him. Killing people is different. How can I kill someone at will?"

Jia Sidao was silent for a while, squinting at Wang Cui's hand holding the knife, the muscle bulging from the clothes, and the sharp eyes.

He had inquired about Wang Cui's superb martial arts skills and tenacity, and he obeyed the orders of Princess Rui.

He tapped his knees, pondered, and said slowly: "There is a secret matter, uncle didn't want to tell it...but I have to tell you that the murderer of the late emperor was not Pang Xie."

Zhao Jin was taken aback for a moment, and looked straight at him.

Jia Sidao let out a long sigh, a little bit unbearable, but still said: "Kingslayer, Li Xia."

When his eyes fell, he saw that Zhao Jin had already clenched his small fists. He couldn't bear to look at the expression of this niece, and continued: "Ms. Yan helped Li Xia."

"uncle……"

Zhao Jin's voice was already crying.

"Uncle didn't lie to me? A bad woman did such a thing? I don't believe it. If so, why would grandma protect Li Xia? Grandma is daddy's biological mother..."

Jia Sidao thought to himself, because that old woman Quan Manniang is too stupid to be cured.

Really, eradicating rebellion has never been difficult, the difficulty is to make those stupid people a little smarter.

One by one will never see the precariousness of the country, and do not understand who is supporting it alone.

These years, it was like being on a slowly sinking broken ship, watching the idiots still desperately digging the ship, in the thunderstorm, he held one, and another...

Fortunately, with Li Xia's letter to the king, Quan Manniang's old blind eyes should be able to see clearly.

"Mrs. Cixian was deceived back then. If the eldest princess doesn't believe it, go see Mrs. Cixian tomorrow..."

~~
Jia Sidao did not say any more evidence.

Although he has.

He and Cheng Yuanfeng worked together to analyze the scene of the late emperor's death, and have restored the process of Li Xia's slaying the king.

It's a pity that today's officials were deceived by Li Xia. In order to cover up Li Xia, they once personally testified that Pang Xie killed the king. It is no longer appropriate to reveal this matter.

And on the surface, the officials still claimed that the late emperor died of illness, and they had no choice but to take revenge secretly...

~~
The next day.

Ouchi, watch the hall.

"My aunt went to Fajing Nunnery to recuperate for three or two months, and she just came back recently. It's hard for her to pray for the community at an age where she can take care of herself, and travel back and forth."

Quan Jiu sat there upright, with a calm and solemn tone.

She looked at Zhao Jin, and finally no longer needed to look up.

Already overlooking.

Now, she is the queen of the world, and Zhao Jin is just a daughter of the former emperor who gradually moved away from the palace.

It's a pity that Zhao Jin didn't realize the difference, she seemed to be worried, she just looked outside the hall and said, "Cousin, I have something urgent to see my grandmother."

"No hurry, no, my aunt just came back, so she was anxious to see the official family. The official family was busy with state affairs last night, so I only saw you this morning."

Quan Jiu lowered her brows and looked at her fingers with a little thoughtful look in her eyes.

She understood why Mrs. Cixian had stayed in Fajing Nunnery for so long.

Shelter.

At the beginning of March, when the news that Li Xia was about to become king came out, many officials mentioned that Mrs. Cixian trusted Li Xia at that time.

Mrs. Cixian rushed to Fajing Nunnery overnight, but no foreign ministers were seen.

How else?
Now that Li Xia has not rebelled, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty have criticized Mrs. Cixian a lot.If Li Xia really rebelled in the future, and the history books mentioned the birth mother of the late emperor, I don't know how to comment.

Thinking of his own tactics of machination and palace fighting, which was taught by Mrs. Cixian herself, Quan Jiu was speechless for a while.

suddenly.

"Not good! Not good..."

"Why are you panicking?" Quan Jiu stood up and looked at Gong'e who was rushing over, still maintaining a dignified posture.

"Empress, something is wrong. Mrs. Ci Xian fell down in the Yanhe Palace and fell unconscious. I'm afraid it's... I'm afraid it's..."

~~
That night.

"The old fool is dead?"

Jia Sidao turned his head, his eyes were quite complicated.

Liao Yingzhong's tone faltered, and she said, "Mrs. Cixian is dead."

"It's cheaper for her." Jia Sidao became more and more depressed, and murmured: "I really want her to live and let her see the day when Li Xia raised the flag with her own eyes. I want to ask her why she slapped me that day?" feel."

Liao Yingzhong had to say a few words of relief.

"Duke Pingzhang is in power now, so why bother with a woman?"

"I don't have to worry about her. Now that Li Xia is ruling the southwest and northwest, Da Song Sheji and Zhao's Ancestral Temple should worry about her, stupid woman."

Although a year and a half had passed, Jia Sidao was still very angry, and he scolded Quan Manniang for a long time before asking, "How did the stupid woman die?"

"At that time, she and the official family were the only ones in the palace. She must have wanted to ask the official family whether they were deceived by the Li family and his son, and... about King Rong."

"What else can I ask? I've found out for her. The official's family is her own grandson. The official's family has already known about it. How much more talk does a stupid woman have?"

"Having said that, she must be relying on her status as the emperor's grandmother to train the officials. It seems that she fell because of her anger when she left."

"What else is there to teach? Look at the officials, if the stupid woman is calm, she can live better than the officials..."

Jia Sidao also had nothing to say.

He has already exposed the lie of Li's father and son's blood confession to Zhao Yu, and let him know that he is the son of King Rong and has a deep blood feud with Li's father and son... Zhao Yu still doesn't care.

That official seems to just want to die early while drinking.

"What a miasma!"

Jia Sidao cursed angrily, and asked, "Did the stupid woman miss me again?"

"No, I still met Princess Rui before dying..."

Not long after, a woman in black wearing a bamboo hat quietly entered Jia's mansion.

Entering the hall, she raised her head, it was Wang Cui.

"Pingzhanggong, according to Pingzhanggong's wishes, the eldest princess will send a villain to accompany Yan to Hanzhong. Please give Pingzhanggong instructions on how to eradicate Li Ni."

"Follow the trend." Jia Sidao showed confidence, "I will find out how Yan Shi escaped, and ask the eldest princess to go and expose it, pretending to be worried about her safety along the way, and order you to accompany. After you arrive in Hanzhong, wait for Li Xia and Yan Shi When you get carried away, kill it..."

~~
Wang Cui left Jia's mansion and returned to the princess's mansion.

"Princess."

"What did uncle say?"

Wang Cui reported in a low voice.

Zhao Jin wiped away his tears, thought seriously, and said: "I have sent someone to see Cheng Xianggong in She County, you go to Hanzhong first, and we can discuss the rest after hearing from Cheng Xianggong..."

~~
Hanzhong.

"Pay money?"

Yan Yunyun raised his head, took a look at Hu Zhen, and pondered: "A thousand guan... The county king has never spent such a large amount of personal expenses on me."

"This is the article. In addition, please keep the envoy strict on this matter."

After Hu Zhen followed Guan De to Hanzhong, he temporarily served as the chief of the inner palace and the chief of the outer palace of the county prince's mansion, and he was regarded as the steward of Li Xia's family.

Yan Yunyun has a special impression of her.

All are prostitutes.But Hu Zhen's starting point is much higher than her. Lin'an is a performer, good at poetry, singing and dancing, has rich contacts, and is good at dancing.

When Hu Zhen was running big business and interacting with high-ranking officials and celebrities, Yan Yunyun was just a country prostitute.

"Director Hu, wait a moment, I'll send someone to raise money."

"Yes, I'll wait outside."

"Let's talk, wait a moment."

After Yan Yunyun went out to order, he turned back to the hall and poured a cup of tea for Hu Zhen with his own hands.

"Is the envoy Yan busy?"

"Who is going to be assigned to, and Mr. Hu is not busy. I don't know if the county king wants this money to do it..."

"This is the county king's private and trivial matter. I can't say anything else that shouldn't be said."

After Hu Zhen finished speaking, he took the tea and said with an apologetic smile: "This is the rule of doing things. Don't blame the strict envoy."

This matter is not difficult to guess, Yan Yunyun has already guessed it, and he just wanted to ask if he could buy another yard for Hu Zhen.

But since she couldn't say it, she found a way to go down by herself.

"It's because I shouldn't be too busy, I just want to chat more with Manager Hu, and yearn for the prosperity of Lin'an."

"Speaking of Lin'an, before I left, I had an anecdote about Jia Pingzhang's scandal..."

The news that it took only half a cup of tea, far away in Lin'an, has been described in detail between the two women.

Taking advantage of this opportunity to make irresponsible remarks to Jia Sidao behind the scenes, they also quickly increased their friendship.

Yan Yunyun once tied Hu Zhen back then, so it can be regarded as the end of all grievances.

Because they all know very well that there is a fight when the king of Pingling County doesn't like his subjects...

"There is another theory that the man in the lake was named Zhao Yuan, and he was the servant of Jiancha in Jia's mansion. He was often brought into the back hall because he served tea. He was young and handsome, and he and Li Huiniang admired each other. He gave a tortoise shell powder box, and she gave him embroidery in return. Purse, one night, two people..."

Yan Yunyun couldn't help shaking his head.

"Jia Cricket, Jia Cricket, even I can see that sooner or later he will betray his relatives..."
