The queen has so many tricks

Chapter 109 Secret meeting ([-])

Chang Ji went out of the palace today, and for the convenience of movement, he wore a men's suit with black arrow sleeves.At this time, the two of them were standing together, and at a glance, they looked like a pair of gifted men and beautiful women traveling by the lake.

Nie Chuanzhen also did not salute as a courtier, but collected his clothes and saluted the elder with the etiquette of a woman.

Chang Ji stretched out his hand to support her and said, "You and I will meet in private, Mr. Zuo Xiang doesn't need to be too polite."

She put her hand on Nie Chuanzhen's arm, and Nie Chuanzhen's slender hand covered in the sleeve couldn't help trembling slightly. She looked down at Chang's hand, then slowly raised her eyes, staring deeply at Chang'an.

The two stood close to each other, and Chang Wei carefully looked at the makeup of Nie Chuanzhen's woman, and felt a strange sense of familiarity in his heart.But after thinking about it, her biological mother, Empress Jingshan, was Nie Chuanzhen's aunt. She and Nie Chuanzhen were cousins ​​and cousins ​​connected by blood.

She decided so, and she didn't want to investigate further.

Nie Chuanzhen had already smiled softly and said: "Your Highness is taller than ordinary women. With such makeup, you really look like a man, with a heroic appearance and a radiant look."

Chang Ji said: "I often went to the barracks in Shenshan Mansion, and I'm used to wearing men's attire. I made Mr. Zuo laugh."

While talking, the two sat opposite each other in the gazebo.The servant came up to deliver tea and snacks, then quietly retreated, Chang Wei looked around carefully, but there was no one around here.

This hexagonal gazebo is built near the water, and is covered by the vegetation beside the water. On the distant bank, only the flying corners of the gazebo can be seen vaguely. But sitting in the gazebo, you can see the east, west, and north sides clearly through the gaps in the vegetation. The scenery on the shore and the pedestrians coming and going.

This place is extremely secretive, and the situation on the shore can be seen clearly, which can not only prevent the partition wall from having ears, but also check whether anyone is following behind.Nie Chuanzhen invited her to come to such a place, and naturally it was not to drink tea and enjoy the scenery and talk about commonplace.

Chang Ji cut to the chase and said, "What do you think, Mr. Zuo Xiang, about the current situation in Shen Shan Mansion?"

Nie Chuanzhen took a sip of the tea, put down the teacup, the pretty Danfeng eyes flashed across Chang's face with a little smile, and slowly looked towards the lake and said: "Shen Shan's mansion has today, no wonder others are all made by Shen Shan. Created by himself."

Hearing this, Chang Wei couldn't help frowning.

Nie Chuanzhen continued: "Your Highness went to Shenshan Mansion when he was ten years old. He has been in Shenshan Mansion for many years. He must know better than me how loyal Shenshan Mansion is to Luoshui and the Luoshui royal family. As a minister, Naturally, you must be loyal to the king. But if you don’t ask about the king’s virtues, and don’t remonstrate with the king’s faults, that’s foolish loyalty. Shen Shan’s mansion is just a foolish and loyal minister.”

She turned to look at Chang Ji, and asked, "Your Highness said, is it true or not?"

Chang Ji agreed: "Master Zuo's words are not bad, Shenshan Mansion is indeed the case. I have been in Shenshan Mansion these years, every time I hear that the royal family is suppressing Shenshan Mansion, I can't help but think, if I am the King of Shenshan, I It is necessary to support the soldiers with self-respect, and use the authority of the soldiers to intimidate the royal family. With the strength of the Shenshan Mansion, even if they do not seek rebellion, they can still stand on their own, so why are they so desperate for the royal family."

Nie Chuanzhen said: "The Shenshan Mansion has held the military power in Luoshui for tens of thousands of years. When the ancestors of the Shen Shan family took over the military power, they made a blood oath that the Shen Shan family would never be a traitor. The Shui family has no other intentions. But even so, the royal family still cannot tolerate the Shenshan Mansion, and the royal family is sure that the Shenshan Mansion will never rebel, so they dare to keep suppressing the Shenshan Mansion, so that even now, it is better to get rid of the Shenshan Mansion. The situation of Shenshan Mansion. If at the beginning, when the royal family suppressed Shen Shan Mansion, Shen Shan Mansion would have dared to resist and give color to the royal family. The royal family knew the bottom line of Shen Shan Mansion, so how dare they press it step by step? How did the head of the family fall to the point where he is now?"

When she said this, she poured out the herbal tea in front of Chang Wei, made hot tea again, and pushed it to Chang Wei's hand.

Looking at the steaming tea in front of him, Chang Ji already understood what Nie Chuanzhen meant, that she wanted Shenshan Mansion to rebel.

But this is by no means the best strategy to save Shen Shan Mansion.

Or, Nie Chuanzhen was deliberately trying to test her mind and Shen Shan Mansion's loyalty.Although she is connected with Nie Chuan's blood, but in the political struggle, the blood relationship is almost negligible.Whether Nie Chuanzhen is an enemy or a friend, and the purpose of this trip is still difficult to determine.

Thinking of this, Chang Wei stood up, bowed his hands to Nie Chuanzhen and said: "Master Zuo Xiang is right, but the matter has come to this point, Shenshan Mansion is in crisis, and the people of Luoshui are now in deep flames of war. Mr. Zuo Xiang tried to help a group of Shenshan Mansions and save the people of Luoshui."

Seeing her saluting solemnly, Nie Chuanzhen got up and avoided the salute and said, "Does Your Highness really want to save Shen Shan Mansion?"

Chang Ji said: "It's natural. As long as Mr. Zuo Xiang is willing to help, under any conditions, as long as I can do it, I will definitely die."

Nie Chuanzhen said: "If His Highness has such a heart, it is not in vain for Shenshan Manor to raise His Highness."

She slowly walked a few steps along the fence of the gazebo, facing the water of Haohao Lake, said: "Your Highness is the blood of my Nie Chuan clan, so I had to send His Highness to Shenshan Mansion back then. The kindness of Shenshan Mansion's nurturing , I, Nie Chuan, also keep this in mind. Now that Shenshan Mansion is in trouble, because of reason, Nie Chuan will not stand by. According to the current situation, it is not difficult for Shenshan Mansion to get rid of the predicament in front of it. But it’s better to draw fire from the bottom of the pot to stop the soup from boiling.”

She slowly looked at Chang Wei, who immediately asked, "What is the method of drawing salary from the bottom of the pot?"

Nie Chuanzhen didn't answer and asked instead: "In your Highness's opinion, how can we save Shenshan Mansion?"

But without waiting for Chang'an to reply, she continued: "Does Your Highness want me to persuade the royal family to let Shen Shan Mansion go? Or to prevent the Cang Yu Clan from making trouble? Or, at the cost of protecting Shen Shan Mansion, support the royal family who is seizing the throne." King Chuanping or King Chuan'an? Even if I can persuade the royal family to transfer the military salary to Shenshan Mansion, I can also stop the Cangyu Clan and support King Chuanping or King Chuan'an to ascend the throne as the new emperor? Then what?"

She fixedly looked at Chang'an and said: "Then, can Shenshan Mansion really get rid of the crisis? Your Highness should also understand in his heart that no matter whether it is the royal family or the Cangyu family, they will not tolerate Shenshan Mansion. The previous emperor was like this, and His Majesty is also the same today. In this way, in the future, King Chuanping and King Chuan'an, no matter which one seizes the throne, they will try to suppress Shenshan Mansion. Look at them, no matter how they are fighting now, they will kill you, but when it comes to regaining the military power of Shenshan Mansion, Their hearts are unprecedentedly consistent. Your Highness, you saved Shen Shan Mansion this time, what about the next time? What about the next time?"

Chang'an's face was pale and he couldn't answer.She knew very well in her heart that none of what Nie Chuanzhen said just now was wrong.

After a while, she raised her eyes to look at Nie Chuanzhen and said, "According to Master Zuoxiang, what should we do?"

Nie Chuanzhen looked directly at her, walked over step by step, and said in a manly voice: "Your Highness, you are enthroned as emperor."
