Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 462 The real master

The magistrate of Yingzhou had no idea that Xia Zijin had set a trick for him a long time ago, and finally ran out of the woodshed, so he ran to the government office with all his strength
On the other side, those guards who went out to search for a show had already received orders to return to the inn to guard.After the man escaped from the prefect of Yingzhou, Xia Zijin made excuses and called him into the house.

Although the man was scared, when he thought that he had just reported to Xia Zijin, he was considered a hero, and Xia Zijin called him now, maybe to reward him, he immediately became emotional and went upstairs.

As for the possibility that Xia Zijin found out that he helped the prefect of Yingzhou escape, the buddy didn't even guess.After all, when he went to secretly release the magistrate of Yingzhou, there was no one around, and he did it without anyone noticing. In his opinion, Xia Zijin would never know.

However, just as he pushed open the door, he was kicked on the buttocks. The clerk turned pale with fright, screamed and rushed in, then hit the stool, and fainted as soon as his eyes went dark.

Seeing his useless look, Xia Zijin involuntarily raised the corners of her lips, and ordered someone to bring a basin of water to wake him up.The woman who had fainted from starvation before had woken up now, and was drinking porridge with the child each holding a bowl.

Suddenly a person rushed into the room, and she passed out immediately. This accident caused the spoon in her hand to fall into the bowl, making a crisp sound. Looking at the scene in front of her in shock, she asked unconsciously. , "This...princess, isn't he dead?"

Although the woman had seen this guy's dog-eyed attitude before, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous when she thought of such a person falling here, and she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

Seeing that she couldn't bear it, Xia Zijin sighed secretly, and comforted her, "Don't worry, he just came in too fast, hit the stool and fainted, he should wake up soon."

While she was talking, Xin'er went to bring a basin of cold water, and according to Xia Zijin's instructions, poured it on the man's head and face.The man shuddered unconsciously, gritted his upper and lower teeth, opened his eyes slowly, and met the smile on Xia Zijin's face.

The buddy was stunned for a long time before he asked why he came here. Just as he was about to jump up, he found that his clothes were completely soaked. When he turned his head, he saw Xiner going out with a copper basin.

Even a fool can guess what happened.The person who kicked him earlier must have been the guard at the door, but what happened, Xia Zijin wanted to call him here and give him a blow.

Xia Zijin looked at the confusion in his eyes, and sneered, "My princess, let me ask you, why did you let the prefect of Yingzhou go?"

The buddy thumped in his heart. Although he was very scared, his body reacted quickly. He immediately knelt down in front of Xia Zijin's feet and kowtowed, "You little one dare not, how dare you let this person go? Princess Mingjian!"

Xia Zijin looked at him screaming, desperately wanting to prove his innocence, picked up the tea on the table and took a slow sip.

In the capital, Xia Shengqing received Xia Zijin's reply, flattened the letter paper, read it several times in a row, and then carefully folded it and put it in the small box at the bottom of the cabinet. This letter should be Xia Zijin's before going to Yingzhou Written on the way, vividly describing the situation along the way to him, but did not mention the disaster at all.

But according to the note sent to him by the dark guard after he arrived in Yingzhou, Xia Zijin's mission this time is really heavy and has a long way to go.The magistrate of Yingzhou is so domineering, there must be someone behind him, I just hope nothing happens to Xia Zijin.

Xia Shengqing took a sip of the tea cup, thinking about what happened in court today, her brows became tighter and tighter. Although Qinglian had calmed down a bit these days, the prime minister obviously didn't intend to let her go, and she was going to court again today, saying yes A strange stone was found in the southwest region, on which was written the words that the demon concubine is alive and the country is in danger.

Ming Shengdi was furious, and reprimanded the prime minister, but with hesitation in his expression, he didn't take the prime minister to the court to be executed by the old-fashioned nonsense, and the index was punished by twenty sticks to bring the matter over.

It can be seen from this that Emperor Ming's heart is still more serious about the country. Although he does not believe what the prime minister said on the surface, he is afraid that he has already thought about it. The Taoist was dragged out and beaten to death with sticks.

Xia Shengqing frowned, and secretly sent a letter to Qinglian in Xia Zijin's name, telling her about the matter in detail.

Qinglian was holding two plum blossoms in the palace and gesticulating in front of the blue-and-white glazed vase with two ears, when she saw a maidservant in a pink skirt and jacket come in with cakes, she inserted the plum blossom branches into the vase, and took the one waiting at the side. The handkerchief handed over by the palace maid wiped her fingers, then turned and walked to the table.

The servant girl who just brought in the cakes lowered her head and set a plate for her, then put away the food cups, and said in a low voice, "This cakes are newly made in the imperial dining room, and they are a little different. Your empress, please pay attention." Taste, servants go down first."

Before Qinglian could speak, she backed away with a low eyebrow.Seeing her look like this, the servant girl who was waiting on the side couldn't help but sneered, "Mother, she is too rude."

Qinglian turned her head to look at her, and the servant girl immediately fell silent.Seeing that she had stopped talking, Qinglian lowered her head, picked up a piece of pastry, frowned and looked at it for a while, then suddenly asked the serving maid to go out.The servant girl raised her head to look at her in confusion, and saw that she had an ugly expression and was unhappy, so she hurriedly lowered her head and retreated as she ordered.

Since the rumors of the demon concubine started outside, Concubine Xin's temper has become worse and worse, and she has become even more unpredictable. The assassins came to the palace earlier. Although Concubine Xin was not injured, after that, she obviously treated them The maidservant was alienated.

Thinking of this incident, the servant girl gritted her teeth with hatred.It was a gift for her to serve in front of Qinglian.Now in the palace, who doesn't know that Concubine Xin is favored and can serve in front of such a master, they all have some shame.It turned out that Concubine Xin was very gentle with these servants, and she blamed the assassin, it was not good to pretend to be a palace servant, it was really annoying.

When Qinglian saw her go out, she opened the pastry in her hand, and as expected, she saw the note inside.After reading it for a long time, she opened the note as if resigned to her fate. After reading the contents inside, her complexion involuntarily became strange.

She thought it was the man who couldn't enter the palace during this time, so she ordered her to do things in a different way, but she didn't expect that this letter was arranged by Xia Zijin, reminding her to pay attention to the conspiracy in the court.Qinglian couldn't laugh or cry, the people behind her wanted to find a way to kill Xia Zijin, but even though Xia Zijin used her to spy on the palace, he never treated her badly.

If she hadn't met Xia Zijin a little later, there would be nothing wrong with such a master.Qinglian sighed, with some melancholy on her face.

In the next second, the hairs all over her body stood on end, she turned around almost subconsciously, and slapped the person with her palm.As always, the other party effortlessly held her snow-white softness in the palm of his hand, sniffed her nose all the way down her wrist, and forcefully brought her whole body into his arms.

Qinglian was taken aback by the sudden force, before she could react, her hands were held by her, and the note in her hand fell to the ground.The man looked at her and frowned, and his lips and teeth fell on her neck deliberately, "Why, are you very reluctant?"

"How come, the prince is joking." Qinglian grinned. When she was bought back by this person, she was taken over that night. It is ridiculous to say that she thought she would meet a loving person, but she didn't expect him to He turned around and sent her to that hellish place, making her suffer the pain of cutting her bones and changing her face.

Then, he threw her into the street like throwing garbage, designed and arranged for her to be bumped into by Xia Zijin, and then sent her into the palace to confuse Ming Shengdi according to the plan.She thought that she could just complete the task like an ordinary secret guard and take revenge along the way, but she didn't expect that the other party was relentless and chased her into the palace to force her to do something.

Qinglian's clear eyes were full of sarcasm, but unfortunately she lowered her head, the man couldn't see the expression in her eyes clearly, his eyes fell on the note on the ground, he let her go, squatted down, picked up the note, and swept it away. With one glance, he smiled softly, "A letter, has it moved you?"

The cynicism in the words made Qinglian's body stiff, and then she sat back at the table as if nothing had happened, with a sarcasm smile on her face, "Your Majesty thinks too much, Qinglian understands her identity. It's just that my son is at this sensitive time. Come into the palace to see me, can't you let it go?"

Being poked by her lukewarm tone, the man didn't show any extra expression on his face, didn't even move his eyebrows, and didn't feel how embarrassing her words were, on the contrary, he raised the corners of his lips happily, "Naturally, with your beauty, no ordinary man would be able to refuse you. This son is also a normal man. He has used a top-quality product like you. Of course, he doesn't like others."

Qinglian stopped breathing, turned her head, and stared at him quietly, not seeing him stepping back in the slightest, and unconsciously took a deep breath, "The emperor still has a quarter of an hour to come, if the son doesn't want to do everything I have painstakingly planned It’s better to leave as soon as possible.”

The man cast his eyes on her instantly, squinting his eyes and staring at her, with undisguised killing intent in his eyes.Qinglian looked back without fear, and finally, the man chuckled and squeezed her chin with one hand, "You are getting more courageous. If this is the case, this son will leave first, it's just what this son ordered you to do." , don't forget, otherwise..."

The naked threat in his words made Qinglian's body tremble, and she trembled twice, before she could speak, he had already let go of her hand, turned around and exited from the window.Qinglian rubbed her red jaw, gritted her teeth, with an unpredictable expression on her face.
