A Thousand Gold Order: Inheritance

Chapter 254 Revenge
What if Gu Zhan doesn't come back?
This is indeed good news for Qin Song!
But the premise is——

He would not personally go to kill Gu Zhan's life, and he would never even participate in the planning.

because--

He knew Qi Huan too well.

The more he wants her, the more he must never do anything that touches her bottom line!
"What's the matter? His Royal Highness King Ning has the ability to keep him in the south forever?" Qin Song smacked his lips, showing some interest.

He was playing with the riding whip in his hand, and he was not in a hurry to leave.

"This king doesn't want to rob him of a woman." Yun Zheng thought he didn't understand what he meant, but seeing that he was being persuaded, he continued to lobby, "I just kindly reminded Lord Hou that there are opportunities, they are opportunities." Don’t lose it and never come back.”

"Heh..." Hearing what he said, Qin Song finally couldn't help laughing softly.

He laughed so presumptuously and blatantly.

Yun Zheng faintly felt that something was wrong.

Qin Song still looked at him like a joke, and said slowly: "I'll kill Gu Zhan, and then leave this handle in your hands, so that you can always threaten me in the future..."

This comment is too straightforward and hits the nail on the head.

It was so sharp that Yun Zheng never thought that he would be able to comprehend this in an instant, and even made it clear to his face.

The conscience of heaven and earth——

It is true that Yun Zheng urged him to kill Gu Zhan, but so far, his so-called mastermind has not thought that he can continue to use this matter as an excuse in the future and tie him to his boat. At this stage, all he thinks about is killing people with a knife. If Qin Song could really kill Gu Zhan out of jealousy, it would be like cutting off the most powerful arm of the prince!

Yun Zheng couldn't hold back, his complexion changed slightly.

Qin Song looked at him with calm eyes like looking at a fool, and continued to sneer: "His Royal Highness Ning thinks that this Marquis is a fool or something? Kindness? Your so-called kindness, I am afraid that this Marquis will not be blessed. "

Even if the Yunzheng in front of him is the prince, his status is higher than him...

But anyone with a bit of blood and temper can't bear this kind of clumsy face-to-face calculation like playing people like fools.

Therefore, Qin Song's attitude has been completely merciless.

His expression and tone became directly cold and stern.

Yun Zheng originally planned to pretend to "encounter" Qi Huan first, and asked Qin Song to see the intimacy between Qi Huan and the Gu family siblings, which was already like a family, so as to arouse the man's desire for victory and possession.

In this way, at the moment when Qin Song's mentality was out of balance——

He can take advantage of it!

It turned out that I didn't expect that when I met someone who was sober in the world, oil and salt would not enter!
He was at a loss for words for a moment, and his face couldn't be controlled. It was extremely gloomy and ugly, but he had to hold on to the last face, and said coldly: "Wu Chenghou insists on trying to figure out the king's mind with malice, and the king has nothing to say." Can say."

He turned his head coldly to the side, in order to maintain his last dignity.

But he didn't want to, Qin Song, who didn't think much about entangled with him at the beginning, left now instead in a hurry.

He stood tall, continued to face Yun Zheng, and then took the initiative to speak: "Reciprocity is reciprocal, so would this Marquis 'kindly' say something to His Royal Highness King Ning?"

In order not to lose his momentum, Yun Zheng only glanced at him out of the corner of his eye.

Qin Song didn't care about such a cold reception, he just said coolly: "The side concubine in your mansion is usually tricky and likes to be clever. If His Highness Ning Wang wants to live longer, he should listen less to her nonsense and so-called Make a plan, otherwise sooner or later, one day you will regret it!"

When Yun Zheng heard this, his breathing stopped for an instant.

It never occurred to him that Qin Song's words hit the nail on the head, thinking of Ye Xunyi.

And what he said—

It seems...deja vu!
That's right, not long ago, that crazy girl from the Qi family had commented on Ye Xunyi face to face.

Thinking of the stumble in Qi Huan's hands, Yun Zheng's eyes turned cold again.

Qin Song keenly captured this change in his emotions, but just took advantage of his absence...

Qin Song actually took the initiative to take another half step forward, getting closer to him.

The two of them broke up talking just now, so they should break up unhappy now!

Yun Zheng was alert, his body's reaction was prior to his thinking, and he took a step back instinctively.

Qin Song saw it and didn't care.

He just lowered his voice a little, and asked suddenly: "At the beginning of the month, Hussar General Gao Changjie was assassinated and killed in the Southern Border Army. The news...His Royal Highness King Ning probably didn't know about it?"

Yun Zheng's complexion changed instantly, and he suddenly widened his eyes and looked at him without caring about his temper, and blurted out: "What? What did you say?"

To him, this news was like a thunderbolt.

He lost his composure for a moment, and grabbed Qin Song's neckline suddenly.

Staring at close range, it seems that he wants to see in the eyes of the other party that the other party is talking nonsense.

Although they were some distance away from the palace gate and stood by the side of the road, officials entered the palace one after another not far away.

Originally, the two of them, a prince and an important minister, stood together to give and receive in private, which was enough to attract attention...

Yun Zheng moved his hands rashly, and immediately some people couldn't pretend to be calm, and began to openly turn their heads to look this way.

This is what Qin Song wants!

He didn't want anyone to misunderstand that there was something personal between him and Yun Zheng.

So under the watchful eyes of everyone, he directly took Yun Zheng's hand away, and pushed him staggeringly without mercy.

Then, as if nothing had happened, he lowered his head and flicked his collar, and said in a cold voice: "Although your Highness and I belong to the monarch and ministers, but this Marquis is also an official of the imperial court after all, please show some respect, Your Highness."

However, Yun Zheng could no longer care about the embarrassment of being pushed by him, he was in a daze, his eyes wandered around without any focus.

"You..." It took a lot of effort for him to regain his composure.

He looked at Qin Song in front of him again, his eyes darkened, he gritted his teeth and said, "When did this happen? Are you deliberately using this to deceive me?"

The main forces in the Great Hajj Dynasty, except for the big camp in the suburbs of the capital guarding the capital, and the Lingcheng army stationed a hundred miles away in case of emergency, the other large forces were all on the borders.

The Lingcheng army and the camp in the suburbs of Beijing are under the firm control of the emperor himself.

Although there are small groups of local armies all over the place, they are strictly limited in size. They are only used to assist the government in maintaining local law and order, and they are never allowed to grow.

In addition, these forces are too scattered, although if they are all gathered together, the scale and strength will be quite impressive...

However, it is scattered all over the place and is under the jurisdiction of different officials and factions. Even if someone wants to take it for his own use, he can't use it.

This also led to the border garrisons becoming a force that the princes who wanted to compete for the throne scrambled to win over.

Although the military forces on this part of the border cannot be easily transferred from the station, the attitude of the military——

There is a world of difference between having this attitude and not having it!

Originally, Yun Zheng was not in a hurry to reach out to the military rashly, but after Yun Heng's accident and downfall, His Royal Highness King Ning was instigated by his side concubine and drifted away after a few words. Then he hastily started to expand his power, and took the risk to attack the Gao family hand.

If the news Qin Song threw out was true, it would be a blow to Yun Zheng.

He couldn't tell whether he was scared or excited for a moment.

Qin Song remained calm, watching the rapidly changing expression in his eyes, just hooked his lips and sneered: "Your Majesty does not make this news public, so there is a reason why it cannot be made public for the time being. I need to arrange this kind of thing." Came out to deceive you?"

Yun Zheng's eyes moved slightly.

He also realized that Qin Song didn't need to lie.

If it is not true, he has made it up now, and as long as a little verification is done, the lie will soon be self-defeating.

These days, he had been annoyed at failing to accomplish Gao Yunmiao's affairs, and now if Gao Changjie was really assassinated and killed——

Then he has an opportunity to take advantage of it again, and he has to discuss with his uncle and concubine mother to see if there is anyone from his own faction who can step up and grab the post of coach of the southern border.

Here, his thoughts drifted away in an instant, and he was already calculating quickly.

Qin Song saw it in his eyes, but poured cold water down again: "His Royal Highness Ning Wang will not continue to ask for the exact news? For example-when did the accident happen to General Hussar?"

Yun Zheng's thoughts were interrupted, and his expression had become irritable and impatient.

He could only gather his mind again and look at Qin Song in front of him.

Qin Song smiled meaningfully, and reminded word by word: "The timing is very coincidental. General Gao died two days earlier than the Qiyuan arson case at the beginning of the month."

When Yun Zheng heard this, the blood in his body seemed to stop flowing in an instant, and the expression on his face froze.

Qin Song continued to strike while the iron was hot: "If it's just God's will, then that's fine, but if someone has already predicted the changes in the southern border, but deliberately played tricks, and made a plan for Prince Ning to marry the Gao family... Then, this People can really be punished!"

After Qin Song finished talking indifferently, he ignored the cloudy Yun Zheng on his face, bypassed him, and strode forward to the palace gate.

Yun Zheng stood there for a long time, until his guard saw that the auspicious time was approaching and stepped forward to remind him, then he hurriedly turned and entered the palace gate.

Matters related to the ceremony, no matter how big or small, were coordinated and prepared by Qin Tianjian, the Ministry of Rites, and Taichang Temple.

The emperor led the courtiers to go through the process step by step, and everything went smoothly without any deviation.

After the ceremony was over and all the officials were dismissed, the emperor took his two sons in Beijing back to the harem.

Empress Gu's ceremony to welcome the autumn was also finished, and a family banquet was arranged by the way. She brought the harem concubines and the emperor's princes to the luncheon.

Princess Zhaoyang was also very sensible and never absent from such sacrificial occasions, and she also returned to the palace today.

So at the royal family banquet that day——

There are only two outsiders, Qi Huan and Yang Pan'er.

When the emperor came over, Empress Gu couldn't bring Qi Huan by her side, so she waved her hand and said, "Go and sit with Cheng'er, you are about the same age, you can chat more, talk about your daughter's private room."

"Yes." Qi Huan agreed obediently.

But I couldn't help complaining in my heart——

What kind of temperament is your own daughter? You still pretend not to know?As for that aunt, she is dragged to heaven, and I have nothing to say to her!
That being said, she still had to pretend to sit down with a proud expression on her face.

Yun Cheng also considered saving face, after hearing what Empress Gu said, he took the initiative to step aside to make room, and waited for the palace servants to arrange a place for Qi Huan at her table.

Qi Huan sat on the table in a regular manner, there was no way to avoid it, so he met Yun Zheng face to face.

I thought that I would receive a few supercilious and cold stares, but I didn't expect that His Royal Highness Ning Wang turned out to be preoccupied, and he just buried his head in eating during the whole process, and didn't even give her a look.

and--

Ye Xunyi did not enter the palace today.

When something went wrong, Qi Huan became more vigilant, taking a glance at Yun Zheng from the corner of his eye from time to time.

Yun Cheng endured her a few times, and finally said: "This is in the palace, even if he holds grudges, he won't dare to do anything to you, you can eat with peace of mind."

Qi Huan was slightly stunned, then smiled gratefully, and said in a low voice: "I'm not afraid that he will wear small shoes for me in the palace, but I think his state today is a bit abnormal..."

Yun Cheng followed her gaze, and couldn't help but look at Yun Zheng twice more, only then did he realize that Yun Zheng's state was indeed wrong.

But she has always been open-minded, so she didn't think about it for a while when she couldn't figure it out: "Father hasn't lifted the restraint on him yet, he has to go back to the palace after he leaves the palace, so there shouldn't be a chance to do anything bad."

What Yun Cheng drank was strong wine. Although Qi Huan was greedy, he knew himself, so he didn't drink the same pot with her.

Then I looked at the house of their two unmarried girls, sitting side by side, each with a flagon in hand, drinking as a companion.

In the past, the emperor disliked his daughter for not being well-behaved. He sneaked a few glances here from the throne and found out that other girls also had such...

Xu Shi found the control group, and unexpectedly gave the two alcoholic girls a good look.

On the front side, Qin Song followed the crowd out of the palace after participating in the sacrificial ceremony.

The next day is the Fifteen Ghost Festival. The temple fair in West Market lasts for half a month, and today is the last day.

In order to ensure that there is a beginning and an end, after leaving the palace, he still dutifully rushed there directly.

Jian Xinghai followed him, thinking of the confrontation between him and Yun Zheng in the morning, he felt lingering fear, turned his head and looked in the direction of the palace, and asked, "Will there be any problems with King Ning? Lord Hou has completely offended him this time." gone."

Qin Song's expression was cold, and it was obvious that his anger was still lingering. He said angrily, "So what if I offend you? Benhou didn't even plan to be with him."

"General Gao's matter is still a secret in the court, you tell him privately..." Jian Xinghai was worried.

"What did I say? Is he still stupid enough to go to His Majesty to confirm in person?" Qin Song interrupted him impatiently, and then changed the subject, his eyes became cold and stern, "I will tell him this matter, Of course I have my intentions. Find something for him and that Ye family to do, so as not to cause trouble and scheming people everywhere in their spare time. Besides...she should pay back the revenge of that poisonous woman who seriously injured Sister Ying. "

Originally, he didn't spare his hand, and he didn't bother to plot against that woman Ye Xunyi.

He was too lazy to argue with a woman because he didn't want to demean himself, but since the other party took his disdain as incompetence...

Then simply settle the score and ask her to taste the bitter bar that she brewed.

In the palace, everyone also dispersed after the luncheon.

Everyone else lived in the palace, and only Qi Huan, Yun Zheng and Yun Cheng needed to leave the palace.

Qi Huan was still a little apprehensive at first, thinking whether he should find a reason to hang around with Queen Gu for a while, so as not to have to go all the way with Yun Zheng.

As a result, Yun Zheng obviously had something on his mind, and after the banquet was over, he asked the empress to resign, and left alone in a hurry, not even taking the opportunity to go to Concubine Sheng Xian's palace to talk to him.

Qi Huan looked at his back, the more he felt that there was something wrong behind it, but for a while he couldn't figure out what happened.

After Yun Zheng left the palace, he returned directly to the mansion without delay.

Because the emperor sealed Ning Wangfu, for the sake of caution, Ye Xunyi has temporarily cut off news communication with Dacheng recently.

But she is in no hurry!
She had already received the news of Gao Changjie's death. Now that the matter had come to an end, she just stayed behind closed doors to hide from the limelight.

Therefore, during this period of time, she was considered leisurely.

Yun Zheng does not have a concubine, and she had the opportunity to attend today's palace celebration, but recently she is not in the mood to go out and confront people head-on, and Yun Zheng is also afraid that her belly will be exposed, and she does not want her to go out to meet people. People hit it off in this matter.

Ye Xunyi had just woken up from her afternoon nap, and was being helped by the maid to get up to wash up, when there was a bang at the door——

Yun Zheng kicked the door and barged in.

This movement startled the servant girl, and she woke up completely.

The maid hurriedly bowed her knees to pay her respects: "I have seen the prince..."

Before he finished speaking, Yun Zheng rushed to his eyes with a gust of wind, and angrily said: "Go out."

"Yes!" Although the maid was subdued by Ye Xunyi, she didn't want to be exposed in front of him, so she walked out without hesitation.

Ye Xunyi didn't have time to react, and the angry Yun Zheng grabbed his wrist and pulled him to him.

He stared at the woman's face, gritted his teeth and asked, "Gao Changjie was assassinated and died in the southern border, did you know about it?"

Ye Xunyi knew it.

But she didn't think there was any problem with the news spreading to the capital at this time.

Therefore, she immediately frowned, and said displeasedly: "I am locked up in this palace with you, Your Highness. Regarding the matter in the southern border, how could I..."

Her reaction was too quick and too logical...

Yun Zheng had been lucky enough to give her some leeway, but when his anger rushed straight up, he slapped Ye Xunyi to the ground with his backhand.
