The emperor's plan: to rule the world

Chapter 870 Uncle Still Knows Your Highness

The capital of the Great Yan Emperor, Qinglong Palace.

Under the leadership of the housekeeper, Rong Qian entered the palace, looked at the man who had been injured for two months and hadn't recovered, frowned slightly: "Your Majesty is back."

Si Zhuoyuan's writing hand trembled, and a drop of ink dripped onto the paper, smudged into a large group of ink stains: "Where are you?"

Rong Qian said: "King Xuanwu married Qin Shu's younger sister in the capital city of Qi State that he left five days ago. They left with the bride and dowry unhappy. At this time, there is still some distance from the border."

Si Zhuoyuan put down the pen in his hand, looked down at the big black ball on the paper, and said calmly: "This king knows."

Rong Qian nodded: "Then I'll go first."

After finishing speaking, he didn't care about Si Zhuoyuan's expression, he got up and left here.

When Si Zhuoyuan was assassinated in the Qianji Building, he accidentally discovered that the woman in the building was actually a spy from another country, so everyone in the building was imprisoned. But what happened, no one except himself. people know.

No matter what the truth of the matter is, when His Majesty returns to the capital, what happened in these days must be explained to His Majesty.

Si Zhuoyuan's heart sank.

Before His Majesty left, he had already begun to doubt Li Jin's identity. Although he stayed in the imperial capital these days without going anywhere, as long as his identity was unknown for a day, he would always be in danger in front of His Majesty.

Neither His Majesty nor Qin Shu could rub sand into his eyes. It would be fine if he stayed honest, but that person has never been able to keep his own place.

Si Zhuoyuan pursed his lips, feeling a little helpless for the first time.

He was worried, but the person he was worried about didn't know what he was thinking at the moment. Li Jin was staying in an orchard outside the capital at this time, looking at the trees full of fruits with bright eyes.

He asked the fruit grower for a bamboo basket, gave the money and discussed with them, and then went into the forest, and then, without washing, he picked the fruit and ate it.

Oranges, chestnuts, apples, pears... Most importantly, Li Jin actually found pomegranates here.

He excitedly picked one after another, thinking of taking some back to give Si Zhuoyuan a try, after all, these fruits grow very well, and the taste is no worse than the tribute ones.

Seeing him standing on the tree, the fruit grower stretched out his hand to the pomegranate tree again and again, and said a little bit tangled: "Young master, you can pick as much as you can eat, but don't waste these pomegranates. The nobles in Beijing like it very much."

Li Jin paused and looked down at him: "Uncle, are there a lot of these... pomegranates in Yan Country?"

"Not many, the best plant in the entire capital is here, as for other places, I don't know."

"However, those nobles said that even His Highness likes this kind of fruit."

Li Jin said in surprise, "Uncle, you still know Your Highness!"

"Of course." The uncle replied very frankly: "Who in Yan Country doesn't know His Highness, five years ago His Highness ordered the establishment of an audit department in every prefecture city, if ordinary people like us encounter injustice, the Yamen will come again." If we don’t make the decision, we can go directly to the Audit Department to file a complaint.”

"Hey, son, be careful, don't fall down."

The fruit grower saw him staggering as if he was about to fall, so he quickly reminded him.
