Chapter 610 Strange

The two of them sat facing each other holding hands, and the candles flickered slightly, casting their figures on the window, it was a pair of beautiful couples, very intimate.

But not far away, in the eyes of those who rushed over, they were full of suspicion, their hurried footsteps suddenly stopped, they frowned and thought to themselves, why is there a woman in father's study?Who is it?

You know, father's outer study has always been a forbidden area, and the people who enter and exit are all trusted confidantes of King Ning. After all these years, even Princess Ning has never entered, but why did a woman appear in the middle of the night?
While he was in doubt, the hidden guard outside the study had already spotted his trace, turned from the dark place to the bright place, bowed towards the visitor and cupped his fists and said, "Third Young Master."

The two people who were looking at each other without distraction in the study were suddenly startled. After looking at each other, Concubine Xian jumped up suddenly, and glanced outside the door, showing a panic in her expression.

But the doors and windows of this study are closed, but where can I see anything?
It was Zhu Jingyu who came from outside the door. He raised his hand to make the hidden guard stand up, and then glanced towards the study, "I have something urgent to report to my father. I just went to the main courtyard, and I said that my father came to the study."

King Ning also stood up, frowning slightly, seemed to ponder for a moment, but raised his voice, "Third brother, come in!"

Unexpectedly, King Ning said that, Concubine Xian was taken aback, then panicked, hearing the sound of people outside responding, footsteps approaching, Concubine Xian subconsciously turned around, trying to escape.

However, King Ning held her tightly, not letting her hide, his eyes and movements were full of comfort.

In an instant, the footsteps stopped outside the door, and when you turned your head, you could see the figure reflected on the door, and it was too late to hide.

Concubine Xian's heart skipped a beat, and she twisted the hand tightly held by King Ning.

King Ning frowned and looked at her pleading eyes, hesitated for a while, but finally compromised, and let go of Concubine Xian's hand just before Zhu Jingyu pushed open the door.

Concubine Xian took a step sideways, putting a little distance away from him.

Almost at the same moment, there was a soft "squeak" on the door, and Zhu Jingyu, who was dressed in a bamboo green Taoist robe, pushed the door open and entered.

Zhu Jingyu is very good-looking, with a handsome face and a straight figure, not to mention that noble and free and easy demeanor, even in the crowd, he is also a person who is so outstanding that people can see it at a glance. How can the girl fall in love with him and insist on marrying him?

Zhu Jingyu thought he was used to the way women looked at him, but it was a different matter when he was looked at eagerly but timidly by such eyes as soon as he entered the door.

What's more, this person is still...

After Zhu Jingyu entered the door, he first bowed his hands to salute King Ning, then raised his eyes and looked at the person beside King Ning. He thought it might be one of his father's confidante, but unexpectedly, there was a picture that looked familiar. , but it should not appear on the face at this time and place, "Ms. Xianfei?"

Zhu Jingyu was completely stunned, he had naturally seen Concubine Xian, and when he occasionally saw Concubine Xian at the palace banquet, he once briefly said a few words, Concubine Xian treated him very kindly, he was a little strange at that time, but It turned out that it was because of his father.

He didn't know that the relationship between Concubine Xian and his father was so close that Concubine Xian could leave the palace and enter and leave his father's study at will?

Zhu Jingyu's heart was full of doubts and surprises, but he kept it deep in his eyes after only a moment, and remained calm.

King Ning seemed to want to say something, so he glanced at Concubine Xian, only to see her shaking her head towards him imperceptibly. Shang, you just left the palace at night. What about you? What's the point of finding a father at this time?"

Zhu Jingyu calmed down, "Father, we haven't heard from Nanbian'er for several days."

The so-called Nanbianer, of course, is the Shuzhong, or the Xia family, which is to be watched closely.

"Of course, it's possible that our informants were secretly captured. However, there is another possibility. My son has dealt with Shen Yue. This person is not easy. If he wants to hide some information, There must be his means."

"And the news he wants to hide must be big news." Naturally, King Ning did not dare to underestimate Shen Yue, especially after the short few days of confrontation, King Ning couldn't be more clear about the thoughts of the Xia family. However, no matter what the purpose is for sending Shen Yue and his wife to the capital, he will never let them do what they wish.

"If the father also has doubts, he might as well give the child a chance, and the child will go out of Beijing immediately to investigate."

"No! That's too dangerous." As soon as these words came out, King Ning hadn't said anything yet, but Concubine Xian, who hadn't spoken since he entered the door, suddenly spoke, with an anxious expression on her face.

Prince Ning and his son frowned, and they all looked at him, but the emotions in their eyes were completely different.

King Ning's eyes seemed complicated, but Zhu Jingyu's eyes were full of puzzlement and surprise.

After a while, he twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Of course I know the danger, but if we want to find out about this matter, we really have to take a risk."

If it is possible to stop their news outside the city, then Shen Yue must have set up an immeasurably dense net around the capital, and if he wants to investigate, how can he avoid danger?

However, in the past few years, he managed to gain face in front of his father, and his father trusted him more and more, secretly entrusting him with tasks that even surpassed his two eldest brothers.

But last time, he failed to handle the matter of secret collection in the previous court, which disappointed his father. Although his father didn't say anything, he couldn't just let it go.

When it was so critical, he had to do his best to help his father ascend the throne, so that he could hold power in the future, and there would never be a time when he wanted to save the person he wanted to protect, but he was powerless.

So why not take a risk?
King Ning said lightly, "No need."

Zhu Jingyu frowned suddenly, and opened his mouth to say something, but King Ning raised his hand to stop him, "It's nothing more than a waste of time to investigate these things now, it's better to just take Shen Yue down and take it down." yes."

Zhu Jingyu was startled, but he didn't expect his father to have such a plan.

"In fact, today, Concubine Xian went out of the palace at night, and she came here to discuss this matter with Father. Shen Yue's wife, Mrs. Ye, has been in Concubine Xian's palace these days, and she has made a lot of moves... From Father's point of view, It is impossible to continue to appease."

Mrs. Ye...Thinking of that person, the healed wound on Zhu Jingyu's left shoulder blade suddenly felt a dull pain again, and he gritted his teeth secretly, just thinking of that woman who was always somewhat similar to A Huan... There were always two lingering thoughts in his heart... Very complicated.

Although Concubine Xian was out of the palace, she couldn't stay for long. Taking advantage of the darkness of night, King Ning personally sent her back to the palace.

When Zhu Jingyu bowed to see him off, he always felt that Concubine Xian looked at him a little strangely.

When the night was dim, he turned around and walked back to his courtyard.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, Rong Feng, his close servant, came forward and said, "My son, why did you come back? Fortunately, this servant is lucky, otherwise, you might not even see him when you come back now." gone."
