Chapter 735: Bewitched
Chu Nanzhi hurriedly stood up to welcome Hai Lian into the Nuan Pavilion, and asked in surprise, "Director Hai came to the residence so late, but what happened in the palace?"
Hai Lianying first saluted everyone respectfully, seeing everyone smiling, she couldn't help but frowned tightly: "Presumably the princess and everyone have already known the report sent by His Highness to the capital, but at the same time The ancestors and His Majesty also received another memorial."
Looking at her husband's frowning look, Chu Nanzhi immediately asked: "Please show me, Director Hai."
Hai Lianying sighed: "Feng Yue actually accuses King Pingning to monopolize the power, kills Yuanxi Princess and Sili Captain Kang Xiu, and imprisons Princess Qian and Tang Concubine. The disturbance in the De Palace made His Majesty's condition worse."
After finishing speaking, he looked around carefully, and continued in a low voice: "The old ancestor is worried about the safety of the princess and the princess, so he sent this old slave to ask the princess when she plans to leave Beijing?"
Chang Yanjue shook his head in wonder: "Even if Jin Xiao doesn't like Princess Yuanxi, how could he kill her? Now that Nan Zhi's mother and son are in Beijing, it is impossible for him to do such an unwise thing."
"According to His Royal Highness's report, it is said that Tang Concubine himself killed Princess Yuanxi, but the Empress Dowager concluded that this was a false accusation made by King Pingning."
Hai Lianying also sighed with some uncertainty: "It is indeed strange to say that Princess Yuan Xi died, Tang Concubine, as Tang's elder brother, loves his two younger sisters the most, let alone Princess Yuan Xi is Xu Xian. The wife of the great general, born of Tian Yumo, the queen mother's younger sister, is deeply loved by the queen mother, so he should not kill his own sister."
"Even a compatriot from the same mother may kill him when it is a last resort, not to mention that Princess Yuan Xi was born to his stepmother."
Chu Nanzhi guessed that this must be King Qinghe's deliberate accusation of Lin Jinxiao in order to confuse the public.
As long as a special official is sent to investigate this matter, the truth will be revealed. I am afraid that he did this to delay time.
Hai Lianying also nodded in agreement: "What the princess said is very true, but His Royal Highness only sent a report to the capital, and did not mention escorting Tang's son-in-law and Princess Qian and his wife back to Beijing, and the old servant also heard that Princess Qian killed Lu. Tan, the second chamberlain of the Yangang clan, logically speaking, the couple should be brought back to Beijing for trial."
"I'm afraid it's not easy to **** the two back at this time."
Chu Nanzhi replied with a smile.
Even if I am in Luyan Port, I will find a way to detain the couple in the state capital.
If they were allowed to return to Beijing, they would lose even the last bargaining chip to restrain the Queen Mother.
Although Lin Jinqian is a stupid head, after all, she is the queen mother's favorite, she can't ignore the life and death of her petite heart.
Everyone could understand the deep meaning of Chu Nanzhi's words, Hai Lianying said with a bitter face: "At present, the princess should make plans early and leave as soon as possible, and don't stay in Beijing any longer."
"Well, I have plans."
Chu Nanzhi nodded and looked at Lin Jinshu: "Princess Shu, for now, I can only follow the Queen Mother's wishes and send special officials to Luyan Port. I will try to bring Prince Xie out of Beijing together in the next few days."
"Nan Zhi, you and the second elder must be careful."
The parting is imminent, Lin Jinshu is not only reluctant to let go, but also worried about their safety on the way.
"Don't worry, I will take care of everyone."
Chu Nanzhi couldn't keep her and Ji Cen'an anymore, so she got up quickly and sent them out together:
"I know Lin Jinke. He relies on the military power in his hands, and neither the Queen Mother is willing to go to extremes, especially the Queen Mother. In the next few days, you have to go to Yong'an Palace to stabilize the Queen Mother. She doesn't want to see Qinghe. Wang raised his troops to rebel, although Qinghe Land has 300,000 cavalry, it is difficult to mobilize now, as long as you stick to Jingling City, I will persuade your brother Wang to return to Jingling City as soon as possible."
"Okay, please go back and tell Brother Wang that Mrs. Wang, as long as I, Lin Jinshu, is alive, I will swear to protect the imperial grandmother and the concubine to the death."
As soon as Lin Jinshu finished speaking, Ji Cen'an quickly echoed, "And I have a full family of Ji, we will definitely not let King Qinghe's cavalry step into Jingling City."
"With the two of you here, I believe that neither the ancestor nor the concubine will make any mistakes."
Chu Nanzhi showed a gratified smile, seeing Hai Lianying's anxious expression, and hurriedly urged the two to enter the palace as soon as possible.
Watching the three of them out of the mansion, she returned to the warm pavilion and asked Chen Chuan to secretly go to the post house to invite Xie Jingchen out to meet them.
In Yong'an Palace, Empress Dowager Tian Yuchan was complaining about Tang Yuanxi's death, when she saw Lin Jinke rushing in anxiously.
"Mother, I have asked the princess to send an order for the trilogy in the suburbs of the Tang family to gather in secret, and I will be able to take Jingling City in one fell swoop after the New Year's Eve."
Lin Jinke greeted her with a smile, and when she was happy, she even forgot the greetings, and picked up the tea on the table and drank it vigorously.
"What did you let the Tang family perform in Beijing?"
Tian Yuchan glared at him angrily.
Lin Jinke smiled contentedly: "Naturally, he forced the emperor to issue an edict to make me the heir apparent."
"It's absurd, the emperor's life is not long, why do you need to persecute him again, we just need to stand still and strictly guard the pass, and after he dies, we can take over Jingling City smoothly, this is the solution once and for all."
Tian Yuchan curled her lips disapprovingly: "Even if Ting An's posthumous son has disappeared, it is not easy for our ancestors to welcome him back to the capital. Even the Qinghe nobles would not agree to it, but it is your move. Don't you want to attract verbal criticism, who gave you this bad idea?"
"The matter has come to this point, and the queen mother still has illusions. I will have a fierce battle with King Pingning sooner or later. It is better to take advantage of this great opportunity to preemptive strikes."
Lin Jinke clenched his fists and said aggressively: "With the 300,000 cavalry in my hand, how can he be my opponent."
"You don't care about your sister's life or death? The land of Qinghe is the foundation of your ancestors, and you don't care?"
Tian Yuchan scolded in dissatisfaction: "Jinqian is still trapped in Pingning Prefecture, and your father-in-law is leading the army to fight against the rebels from the northern kingdom Rongdi. If you force the palace at this time, how will the officials think of you?"
Paused, she forced to ask again: "Who gave you this bad idea?"
After seeing her mother, Lin Jinke cared so much about the love of her children and was only thinking about Jinqian's safety, how could she tell her that this was the sixth emperor's uncle's high opinion.
Tian Yuchan shook her head helplessly: "Jin Ke, you just need to closely monitor Princess Pingning's mother and son, and exchange Jinqian and his wife after the New Year's Eve, and then try to recall the general for your mother, and ask him to contact you. All the ministers, please Your Majesty, even if you are slandering King Pingning and intending to rebel, you can justifiably send troops to Pingning Prefecture. If you do this unjust act now, you will fall into the tricks of others, even if you are lucky enough to get the Zen throne The imperial edict will also be reviled by all generations."
"We have to wait until the Year of the Monkey."
Lin Jinke obviously disagreed with her idea, and scolded: "The queen mother actually wants to exchange Princess Pingning for the safety of Jinqian alone. I must never let this woman return to King Pingning. What I can't get People would rather let her die in the middle of the capital, has the queen mother not learned the danger of this woman?"
Tian Yuchan reprimanded angrily, "Your father-in-law is the only son-in-law. If you can't let him return to Beijing safely, how can you make him work for you with peace of mind?"
Lin Jinke was taken aback when he heard this, but this was also a hidden worry.
But after pondering for a long time, he replied resolutely: "As long as the mother and son of Princess Pingning stay in the capital, and when the minister wins the big position, I don't think that poor son-in-law will dare to punish the son-in-law and Jinqian. They came back unscathed."
Besides, he now has a new confidant and think tank, and Tang Ru is dispensable to him.
Furthermore, even though Tang Yao felt sorry for his son, he would not give up his bright future and turn to others regardless of the honor and disgrace of the whole family.
After speaking, he clenched his fists hard and said firmly: "The queen mother can rest assured to wait in the palace for the good news of my son. It won't be long before you don't have to be angry with the emperor's grandmother anymore."
"Jin Ke."
Tian Yuchan wanted to call him to stop, but he turned and left without looking back, his heart was burning with anger, and he gradually realized that it might be that evil villain Beibin Wang who bewitched his son.
It’s really a thousand dollars.
