Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 702
Xiao Fu had no idea that he had sold out just because of Hong Fu's inadvertent words.Originally, Xia Zijin couldn't think of him, but Xiao Fu was the only person who could help the Emperor of Liang, who had a feud with the couple, and who could catch Xia Shengqing.

Xia Zijin felt a little irritated involuntarily. At the beginning, she saw Xiao Fu as an upright person, so she supported him. She didn't expect to raise a tiger, maybe he was deliberately pretending to be in front of her that day. Xia Zijin sneered, and pointed Impatiently knocking on the table.

It's a pity that what happened outside is destined to keep her from being clean, and soon Dali Temple Minister came to visit in person, but said that he wanted to see the eldest princess.This scene was really weird, Xia Zijin thought about it for a while, and then asked the maid to spread out the screen of Shanhe Sheji in the middle of the room, and then asked Xin'er to invite the Minister of Dali Temple in.

As soon as Dali Temple Minister came in, he slapped his sleeves left and right and made a big salute. Xia Zijin didn't move his eyebrows, Xin'er immediately went up to help him up, and stood by the screen again.Xia Zijin hadn't shown his face these days, but now there was a screen behind him, and the people behind him couldn't see clearly at all, Dali Siqing couldn't help muttering in his heart, guessing that the person in front of him might not be Xia Zijin.

"Master He, what are you doing here today?" Xia Zijin's cold voice came from behind the screen before he could form his guess.

Although the face cannot be seen, through the shadow, Dali Siqing can still see the dignified posture of the woman sitting behind, and the court ceremony is very good, plus this voice is exactly like Xia Zijin's voice, The Minister of Dali Temple immediately dispelled his doubts and bowed respectfully, "This matter... I also ask the eldest princess to forgive me for my innocence. If not, I dare not say anything."

"Say." Xia Zijin's face was indifferent, and even his voice was three points colder, like an ice-hardened arrow that pierced directly into Dali Siqing's heart, making him break out in cold sweat, and immediately bowed his head, not daring to hide anything Speak up.

"Reporting to the eldest princess, the lower officials have already found out the source of the dagger." Dali Siqing was trembling, afraid that what he said next would kill Xia Zijin, "The dagger belongs to Rong Shizi."

"Rongyu?" Xia Zijin didn't expect this to happen. It was a good thing. Rongyu was crazy to assassinate the Xidi envoy. If he really wanted to kill someone, he would do it on the battlefield.But speaking of it, the person in the capital who is most likely to do it is indeed the honor of having fought with Xidi to form a beam, at least, it seems so to the people of Xidi.

It seems that the people behind the scenes are determined to blame Rong Yu, but is the other party after her, or Rong Yu?If it's because she got Rong Yu involved...

Xia Zijin's brows were immediately stained with sadness, and he didn't speak for a long time.The minister of Dali Temple was flustered and uneasy, winking at Xin'er from time to time, hoping that she would give him some hints, at least tell her about Xia Zijin's current expression.This feeling of not knowing anything is really terrible.It's a pity that Xin'er has always been very strict with her duties, and she didn't even raise her head. It is doomed that Dali Siqing's eyes are for nothing.

"Does anyone else know about this?" After waiting for a long time, I heard movement from behind the screen, but the words didn't sound warm at all, more like Xia Zijin was going to kill someone to silence her.

Dali Siqing suddenly became nervous. He was afraid that Xia Zijin would kill him here in order to keep this secret. His face collapsed. If he had known, he would just find a scapegoat and come here to talk nonsense. What, whether he can get out alive later will become a problem.

I hope the eldest princess can spare his life for the sake of his loyalty. Dali Siqing's expression seemed to be about to cry, and he stammered: "No...no."

Xia Zijin's heart immediately relaxed, and she motioned for Xin'er to go to the cupboard and bring out a box full of gold leaves, and Xin'er respectfully handed it to Xia Zijin.Xia Zijin laughed, grabbed a handful from the inside, stuffed it into Xin'er's hand, and pointed to the teacup on the table.

Xin'er immediately understood what it meant, walked to the front of the table, put the gold leaf in a small white jade porcelain bowl, poured the tea herself, and brought it to Dali Temple Minister, "My lord, the princess said you did a good job, these are rewards My lord, my lord, let's continue, and my lord has come and talked for so long, I must be thirsty, drink some tea to relieve fatigue."

Dali Siqing didn't dare to look at the pile of gold at all. As the saying goes, if you have money, you can't spend it.Dali Siqing's first reaction was that Xia Zijin let the servant girl do something in the water. This was to poison him to death. Immediately, her upper and lower lips couldn't stop trembling, and the blood on her face faded. Son, looking at Xia Zijin sitting motionless behind the screen from time to time.

For a long time, Xia Zijin didn't respond. Dali Siqing finally gave up. His whole body was like a deflated ball. He took the teacup tremblingly, drank it down, and then looked in Xia Zijin's direction with an expression on his face. "Eldest princess, I will never tell others about this matter now, but I just ask the eldest princess to spare my family for the sake of my sacrifice for the country and loyalty."

Xia Zijin listened in a daze, but Xin'er immediately understood, thinking of Dali Siqing's ashen face just now, she angrily slammed the glazed cup in her hand onto the table, and put her hands on her hips, " Well, Dali Temple Minister, the princess saw that your mouth was dry, and you kindly invited you to drink tea, but you didn't appreciate it, and accused the princess of taking your life! I really don't know what to say!"

Dali Siqing was stunned by her scolding, and it took a while to realize what she meant, and asked stupidly, "Isn't this poisonous wine?"

It was only then that Xia Zijin realized what he had misunderstood. He couldn't help laughing for a moment, and comforted Xin'er who was pointing at his nose and scolding, "Xin'er, don't be rude!"

Seeing this scene, if Dali Siqing couldn't react anymore, then he was really an idiot, and his face turned red like a monkey's butt.But he has been in the officialdom for most of his life anyway, and he is used to watching his face, so he quickly adjusted, and said to Xia Zijin respectfully: "My lord princess has a lot of people. It was just a momentary whim of the officials, which almost destroyed the princess. The reputation of the lower officials should be damned!"

He said damn it, but his expression was much more relaxed than before. Knowing that his life was not in danger, Dali Siqing couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and the stone in his throat fell back into his stomach.Xia Zijin knew that he was sycophanting, so she didn't expose it, "Master He is loyal, so I naturally won't blame him, Xin'er, give the things to Master He."

The golden leaves just entered Dali Siqing's pocket, and after receiving the hush money, Dali Siqing smiled like a chrysanthemum.Xin'er looked away uncomfortably.Xia Zijin pursed her lips, "That's the end of this matter. For the next thing, you will send the dagger back and I will deal with it. You should find out who dared to assassinate the prince today!"

In the last sentence, Xia Zijin's tone suddenly increased by an octave. Through the screen, Dali Siqing could feel her anger and shook his head secretly. He didn't know who dared to stroke the tiger's beard. You know, the eldest princess Husband and wife with Jiu Qiansui have always had a harmonious relationship, this person dared to assassinate Jiu Qiansui, if found out, the eldest princess will definitely not let him go easily.

If he can handle this matter well, the eldest princess will definitely value him more.Dali Siqing quickly sorted out his thoughts in his mind, showing a faint look of excitement.Xia Zijin couldn't see his expression, didn't know his psychological changes, and asked him to retreat after explaining the matter.

When Dali Siqing went out, he saw Rong Yu coming in through the courtyard gate. Seeing him familiar with the way, Dali Siqing felt a chill in his heart. He took out his handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and lowered his head. He saluted and left quickly.The rumors outside are indeed true, the relationship between the eldest princess and Rong Shizi is indeed extraordinary.

When he thought of how he had sued Rongyu in front of Xia Zijin just now, he couldn't help but quicken his pace, as if there was an evil spirit chasing after him.Rong Yu looked at him suspiciously, without thinking too much, he pushed the door open and went in, feeling a little excited in his heart.

This was the first time Xia Zijin took the initiative to find him, especially now that Xia Shengqing was not around.When he walked in, he showed a standard smirk, "Zijin, do you miss this son? You sent someone to find him? Have you changed your mind?"

His unscrupulous words made Xin'er's brows furrow tighter and tighter, and she couldn't help but said: "Senior Rong, the princess respects you, so she tolerates your presumptuousness, but if you continue to talk nonsense and ruin the princess' reputation, you Can you afford it?"

"Xin'er!" Regarding Rong Yu, Xia Zijin couldn't help being indulgent. In fact, he owed a lot to this person, "Remove the screen."

As soon as Xin'er turned her head, she saw Xia Zijin's complex expression, and then thought of what Rongyu had done for her princess, she couldn't help being dumbfounded, but her eyes fell on Xia Zijin's belly, she clenched her fist again, but she still pushed Together with the screen.

The barrier between the two of them was pushed away, and Rong Yu's fiery eyes immediately fixed on Xia Zijin's body.God knows how much he missed Xia Zijin after going to the battlefield, the more restrained she was, the more she couldn't help thinking about it.However, his eyes fell on Xia Zijin's swollen belly, and his expression suddenly dimmed.

Until now, he still couldn't accept it.I thought Xia Shengqing was an eunuch, so he still had a chance.Unexpectedly, things were not what he thought at all.That's right, how could a perfect person like Xia Zijin choose a flawed man.A few days ago, Xia Zijin told him the truth, but every time he saw it with his own eyes, he still felt as uncomfortable as if his heart was being eaten by ants.

Xia Zijin deliberately avoided his gaze, and Rong Yu was touched by her embarrassed expression. He took a deep breath, gave Xia Zijin a meaningful look, and quickly put away the fiery light in his eyes, "Zijin, you Looking for this son, but is there something urgent?"
