Reborn to marry ex-husband's nemesis

Chapter 230 Inquiring About Han Zhan
After Taiyi Wu finished making the medicine for Chu Zhi, and watched Chu Zhi drink it with his own eyes, he got up to leave.

Before leaving, Imperial Physician Wu suddenly asked: "Have the county lord heard of the eldest princess?"

Chu Zhi looked at Imperial Physician Wu.

"The eldest princess of the former dynasty is a very powerful person. She is the most wise and transparent person I have ever seen. The county master just said that his ability is limited, and I am afraid that he can't do anything, but the official thinks that in time. , the county lord will be the second eldest princess."

This evaluation was extremely high, and Chu Zhi would not dare to accept it for two lifetimes, nor could he bear it.

"Emperor Wu must not say that. What a noble person the Eldest Princess is. Her talents are even inferior to men. How can I compare with the Eldest Princess."

Physician Wu shook his head slightly: "There is a gully in the heart of the county magistrate, so naturally he will get what he wants."

Just as Physician Wu was about to boast out of the room, Chu Zhi suddenly asked, "Physician Wu, can I ask you something?"

"Master, please speak."

"You..." Chu Zhi hesitated, "Master Han, how have you been these few days?"

Imperial Physician Wu was surprised: "Master Han Xiaohou went to the northwest, but he is not in the capital, the county master doesn't know?"

"Northwest?" Chu Zhi's smile froze at the corner of his mouth.

How did Han Zhan go to the northwest?She didn't know the slightest bit.

Seeing this, Imperial Physician Wu was even more surprised. At the beginning, the young master was framed in the East Palace. If the county magistrate hadn't entrusted him to speak before his majesty, and deal with it, the young prince might be now... He saw that the relationship between the two was extraordinary, and the young The news of Lord Hou leaving the capital is known to everyone, how could the county magistrate not know?

Then I thought about the night when the young master left, the county lord happened to be ill and fell asleep all the time, I don't know if it's normal.

He said: "Go back to the county lord, that's right! His Majesty summoned the young master overnight and said that there were refugees in the northwest making trouble, so he sent the young master to suppress it. Counting the days, I am afraid that he has just arrived in the northwest."

Chu Zhi's heart skipped a beat, and he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell for a while, so he forced a smile and said, "That's how it is."

Imperial Physician Wu didn't know about the dispute between Chu Zhi and Han Zhan, so he said straightaway: "Your Majesty heard from the Crown Prince that His Majesty had previously asked the young Lord to go to the Northwest on purpose. It was just because of the farce of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the Holy Majesty changed people. That person was not good at doing things, which made His Majesty very angry, so he announced the young master to enter the palace, saying that he was going to go to the northwest, and promised that if the young master could make meritorious service this time, he would definitely be appointed as an official. It is strange to say that it is strange to officially enter the court as an official, the young master didn't pay much attention to these things before, but this time he suddenly accepted, even the Holy Majesty was unexpected."

"Really?" Chu Zhi twitched the corner of his mouth.

She was disturbed, and after socializing with Imperial Physician Wu, she asked Nanny Qian to send Imperial Physician Wu away.

After the doctor Wu left, Chu Zhi thought about it and felt that something was wrong, so she asked Mother Qian to go to the Meng Mansion to invite Meng Wan over.

Meng Wan is well-informed, so she must be able to find out something from her.

Coincidentally, as soon as Nanny Qian asked someone to deliver the letter, she ran into Meng Wan at the gate of the mansion.

It turned out that she heard the rumors that Chu Zhi was drunk in Huajian, the poison entered her lungs, and there was no antidote, so she rushed here in a short time.

Seeing that Meng Wan was really frightened, Chu Zhi comforted her: "That's what I made on purpose to confuse the public. It's actually nothing. The prescription for detoxification has already been prescribed. After three doses of the medicine, you will be alive and kicking again. Don't worry."

"That's good. As long as you're fine, I'll rest assured. You don't know. There are all kinds of rumors outside, and you want to say anything. I'm going to be scared to death!" Meng Wan was terrified. ?”

"The left and right are just the people inside."

"You suspect the Queen?"

"On the contrary, this time, the queen is the least suspicious one."

"So sure? Why?"

"Just because I had an accident, you were the first person to suspect her." Chu Zhi said, "Since you can suspect that the empress did it, other people must think so too. The empress is ambitious, but not stupid, and the Mid-Autumn Festival Since then, His Majesty has been staring at the central palace, and has become even more afraid to act rashly."

"So she also knows that if she makes a move, she will not be able to clear up the suspicion." Meng Wan suddenly realized, "If that's the case, who do you think?"

"Hard to say."

Chu Zhi's eyes darkened.

She really thought it was Concubine Zhuang, but Concubine Zhuang is such a deep-minded person that she would never make a move until the last moment. She also said just now that Concubine Zhuang doesn't know her at the moment, there is no entanglement with her, and she has never made a move. reasons are also excluded.

Besides, the sixth prince, the fourth prince, and Hai Xinlan, Chu Zhi counted and counted, she offended only these people, and they were the only ones who could not understand her.

"It would be great if Han Zhan was here." Meng Wan rested her chin and said with emotion, "He seems to be foolish and ignorant, but he is quite powerful if he wants to inquire about something."

"how do you know?"

"Of course my grandfather said it!" Meng Wan approached Chu Zhi and whispered, "He said that Han Zhan had a hidden guard in his hand, which seemed to be left to him by his mother. Few people know about it."

"Since it's a hidden guard, no one will notice?"

Since ancient times, except for the royal family with dark guards, the rest of the people, privately raising dark guards is a death penalty for the entire family.

The eldest princess of the previous dynasty also had dark guards, but after the death of the eldest princess, the first emperor took back the dark guards. Now only the emperor has dark guards. Unexpectedly, Han Zhan also has them.

"Of course not. Even the Holy Majesty doesn't know about this." Meng Wan said, "My grandfather also found out by accident. He was too scared to say anything. He quietly told me the secret before he left."

Chu Zhi instinctively felt that this matter might involve a lot.

"Your grandfather told you such a confidential matter?" Chu Zhi couldn't believe it!

"It's natural." Meng Wan showed an awkward yet polite smile, "Did you forget that I was the person my grandfather loved and valued the most?"

Chu Zhi: "..."

It really is!
"I have something to ask you." Chu Zhi finally asked what was on his mind, "I want to know, well, why did the Holy One send Han Zhan to the northwest?"

Meng Wan secretly said: "When Zhongyonghou was young, he guarded the northwest border, and the people there spoke highly of Zhongyonghou. The Holy One was afraid that his meritorious deeds would shake the Lord, so he was transferred back to the capital for retirement on the grounds of his hard work, and left General Qi in the northwest. Keep guarding, but many of the refugees in this riot are the remnants of the previous dynasty and the spies of the enemy country. Coincidentally, those people were terrified of Zhongyong Hou when they heard about it. He couldn't bear the responsibility, so he was ready to move and wanted to rebel. And Han Zhan is the young master of the Zhongyonghou mansion, the biological son of the old master Han, and it is most suitable to send him to suppress the refugees."

Not only can you use Zhongyonghou's prestige to arrest those thieves without a fight, and play a deterrent role, but you can also ask Zhongyonghou to stay in the capital, which is the best of both worlds.

"I heard that the Holy Majesty promised Han Zhan that if he succeeds this time, he will be allowed to enter the court as an official?"
