Royal gift of little crazy concubine

Chapter 128 Eavesdropping
Chen En carefully hid this manuscript in his arms, "Princess, what can Caomin do for you?"

Jun Runing said frankly: "The handwritten copy just now is actually a song. When the day of the competition comes, I want you to sing this song with me."

"Sing a song???" Chen En was stunned.

On weekdays, he didn't even listen to the music, let alone rap.

Hong Yi was also surprised and said: "Princess, is your request too..."

Jun Runing didn't answer, cleared her throat, and then sang the song "Serving the Country with Loyalty"——

"Looking north from the mountains and rivers, the dragon flag curling up the horse and neighing like frost, the sword energy is like frost, and the heart is like the vastness of the Yellow River. Who can resist in 20 years...Let the Quartet come to congratulate!"

After she finished singing, Chen En and Hong Yi were stunned again.

After a long period of silence, Hongyi first applauded: "So this is how the song is sung, Princess, you sing so well!"

Jun Runing said modestly: "This song is called "Serving the Country with Loyalty". Unfortunately, I am a woman, so I can't sing the masculinity of Dongxia men and the ambition of defending the country, but Chen En, those of you who have been on the battlefield Anyone is fine, would you like to sing this song with me?"

Chen En couldn't help but gave another military salute: "Cao Min is willing!"

For the poetry and spirit expressed in this song, he will die!

Jun Runing breathed a sigh of relief: "Very well, I'm going to find another nineteen people next, would you like to invite others with me? Maybe you know some of them."

"The grassroots obey!" Chen En gave a heavy military salute.

Jun Runing smiled, with Chen En joining, it would be much easier to invite other people later.

For the next whole day, Jun Runing kept running around in the suburbs of the capital.

Huang Tian paid off, after a whole day, she finally got together twenty people,
In addition to the disabled, there are also a few who retired after getting old, and all of them are heroes in the army.

Jun Runing considered that some people had trouble with their legs and feet, so he made an appointment with them and met them at Huayulou at noon the next day.

When her carriage returned to Jun's house that day, it was already very late, so she missed dinner time, so she had to go into the back kitchen to find something to eat.

After dinner, she returned to Xiyuan.

When he was about to reach the door, he heard someone talking in the room.

"My lord, my subordinates have verified that, except for Jiabaifu, almost all the people who have reported to the yamen recently have been levied different amounts of silver. For those at the level of Jiabaifu, 1000 taels have been collected, and other restaurants and inns have reported cases. It is charged between three and 500 taels, if it is a private case, the money will be less, but the minimum charge is ten taels."

Mu Tingyao's cold eyes narrowed slightly: "Liu Puzhi has eaten the heart of a leopard, and dared to openly search for people's fat and people's anointing at the feet of the emperor!"

"My lord..." Sixteen glanced at Chu Yun who was doing nothing, and hesitated to speak.

Mu Tingyao said in a deep voice, "Speak!"

Sixteen continued: "In addition to County Magistrate Liu, my subordinates also found out that county governments in small towns near the capital also did the same. Some small officials couldn't raise enough money, so they could only pretend to be robbers and go to the people to rob."

"It's lawless!" The brush in Mu Tingyao's hand broke in two.

Chu Yun sighed: "Every year on the birthdays of the fourth prince and the sixth prince, the two brothers always have some troubles in order to compare whose birthday party is bigger. But in previous years, it was just two factions fighting each other. It didn’t hurt others, but it’s too much to blatantly plunder from the people this year.”

Mu Tingyao narrowed his eyes slightly, trying to suppress his anger in his tone.

"They want to fight for power and power, and ignore people's livelihood. It's just for the sake of ostracism, and they did such an outrageous thing. If this king continues to sit idly by, how can he be worthy of those dead souls who died fighting for Dongxia!"

He raised his head and ordered: "Go and invite Qu Xueqiao out, it's time to find a father for Qu Zi."

"Yes!" Sixteen replied, turned and left.

Chu Yun flipped through a copy of "The Analects of Confucius" casually, and said with a faint smile: "When the child was born, I looked like the sixth prince. I saw him again a few days ago, but he looked more and more like the fourth prince, so Who is his father? It's hard to guess..."

Mu Tingyao didn't answer, and took a new brush from the pen holder as if nothing had happened, and began to dip in the ink.

Chu Yun looked up at him, suddenly remembered something, and quickly closed the Analects.

"Speaking of which... my lord, now that the evidence for that matter is conclusive, how do you plan to deal with Chen Zhiru?"

Mu Tingyao was about to speak, when Shiliu's voice suddenly came from outside the door: "My subordinates will see Princess Mu."

She has come back?

Mu Tingyao subconsciously put down the brush and looked up in the direction of the door.

Chu Yun sighed regretfully: "Hey, I'd better go, so as not to be bullied by you couple again..."

When he walked to the door, Jun Runing, who was caught eavesdropping, just opened the door.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Jun Runing immediately asked: "Master Chu is leaving now, why don't you stay a little longer?"

"The night is dark and the wind is high. I'm afraid I'll die if I continue to stay. It's better to walk..." Chu Yun bowed politely, then bypassed her and left.

Jun Runing took it to the door, and then walked up to someone, consciously admitting his mistake.

"My lord, I know I'm wrong. Just now I overheard something I shouldn't have heard outside the door, just about that child..."

She said she was admitting her mistake, but in fact she wanted to know what happened to that child.

No way, everyone is curious.

Mu Tingyao looked up at her pretty face without sincerity, and said calmly, "Since you are Princess Mu, you will know these things sooner or later."

Jun Runing immediately changed his words: "My concubine is all ears!"

Mu Tingyao compared the chair not far away with his chin, "Sit down."

Jun Runing walked over briskly, pulled out a chair and sat down.

Mu Tingyao just said: "Although the fourth brother and the sixth brother are of different ages, they have the same birthday. Every time the two birthdays come, the two of them will throw a big feast and compare each other.

On that birthday three years ago, an official couldn't come up with a decent gift, so he gave his daughter to the Fourth Prince..."

That woman is called Qu Xueqiao, and she is well-behaved and kind-hearted. In order to save her father, she willingly boarded the largest flower boat in the capital——Chunyu Jushang.

It is a pity that after the fourth prince took away her innocence that night, he disembarked from the boat without giving her any title.

It just so happened that the sixth prince was also on this flower boat that night, seeing Qu Xueqiao's beauty, he also laid hands on her after getting drunk.

Qu Xueqiao's reputation was ruined, and she became pregnant not long after. Since then, she could not return home. Her father felt guilty for this, suffered day and night, and finally hanged himself.

When Qu Xueqiao heard the news of her father's suicide, she also wanted to throw herself into the river, but Jun Ruyun saw her and rescued her.

Hearing this, Jun Runing couldn't help cursing: "Trash! Scum! Beast! Fortunately, my sister saw it, otherwise it would be a pity for such a good woman!"
