Chapter 764: queen
Chapter 764 Queen
After being scolded by Chang Lao Nie, seeing Chu Nanzhi, Ji Rongheng thought she would give him a severe reprimand to vent her resentment, but what surprised him was that the woman didn't even say a word of reproach nor.
Her attitude made Ji Rongheng feel even more uneasy.
"Princess, please don't worry, I dare to guarantee with my life that such things will never happen again."
Ji Rongheng swore a promise.
"After all, it's okay to be used to this kind of thing."
Chu Nanzhi looked at him with a light smile, and sighed meaningfully: "The governor should be more careful, it's too cold to be high."
"What does the princess mean by this?"
Ji Rongheng didn't know why and asked.
Looking at his eager eyes, Chu Nanzhi ignored him, and led the little treasures back to the house slowly.
Now that some people want to kill themselves, I am afraid that there are also people who want to murder this upright governor.
After all, Lin Yanjing's desire to detain her was the result Qinghe King wanted, but Ji Rongheng's thoughts were elusive to them.
If you want to maintain the current situation, the best way is to get rid of him.
But she can only give advice so far.
Seeing her lukewarm attitude towards him, Ji Rongheng knew that she was jealous that he lured her family to the state capital and failed to fulfill his promise to send them away, so he didn't dare to blame him, so he left the posthouse sullenly Governor's House.
Along the way, he was carefully savoring Chu Nanzhi's words, and he suddenly realized when he came to the governor's mansion: "Could it be that the eldest princess also wants to do something to the governor?"
As soon as the thought came to him, he immediately denied it.
It should be impossible. I lead the Langzhou iron cavalry anyway. If I die in Langzhou, before King Pingning enters the city, the state capital will be the first to fall into chaos.
Dispelling his worries, he went straight into the Governor's Mansion.
At this time, Lin Yanjing had just received a letter from Princess Yanjun. When she learned that the governor had entered the mansion, she hurriedly put away the letter and went out to greet her with a smile.
Unexpectedly, the moment he saw Ji Rongheng, this guy put on a bad face: "Why did the eldest princess arrange a killer to assassinate Princess Pingning?"
Lin Yanjing also learned about what happened in the posthouse just now, but she didn't know why he suspected her head, and replied with a sneer: "The governor thinks it's the princess who did it?"
"If it wasn't for the eldest princess, who would dare to do such a bold thing in Langzhou?"
Ji Rongheng asked again aggressively.
"The governor is really confused. If this princess wants to harm Princess Pingning, why should she be brought to the state capital?"
Lin Yanjing shook her head helplessly: "Isn't this making things difficult for myself?"
I also guessed that he was resentful because he treated the mother and son coldly, so he hurriedly said: "Recently, the son-in-law is not feeling well, and this princess is in a state of distress all day long, and I have no intention of receiving Princess Pingning and her party. I was setting up a grand banquet to entertain their mother and son, and I never thought that the governor would come to the mansion to ask the teacher for their crimes."
"The eldest princess really thinks so?"
Ji Rongheng was overjoyed, and asked with a smile on his face.
"Naturally."
Lin Yanjing led him unhurriedly into the living room and sat down, and smiled slowly: "The governor doesn't have to question this princess, although I have temporarily left Princess Pingning in the state capital, it is also for the sake of the tens of thousands of people in the state. For the sake of the army and the people, as the governor of Langzhou, you should understand the painstaking efforts of this princess."
"The eldest princess is very happy to be appointed as an official because she cares about the common people, but now that His Majesty is in trouble, we shouldn't prevent King Pingning from going north. Wouldn't this be infamy?"
Ji Rongheng saw that her attitude was indeed much more gentle today, and tried to persuade her again.
"How can I not know this."
Lin Yanjing suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart, and still explained with a smile on her face: "At present, the matter of Princess Yuanxi has not been clarified. When the truth comes out, I will personally talk to Wang Dao of Pingning about the cause."
"The next official will feel relieved."
Ji Rongheng was finally relieved, stood up and cupped his fists: "Then I won't bother the eldest princess."
"The governor walks slowly."
Lin Yanjing watched Ji Rongheng leave, and then someone called Pei Jian, and immediately ordered: "Tomorrow, the Japanese princess will entertain Princess Pingning. Before that, this princess wants to give her a big gift?"
Pei Jian's eyes paused, and he stared blankly at her.
"Pei Jian, you are hosting a big event for me."
Lin Yanjing's eyes became sharper: "Send someone to get rid of Ji Rongheng tonight, and this princess will give his head to Princess Pingning."
"Get rid of the governor?"
Pei Jian was stunned and stunned: "Eldest princess, the chief governor is from the famous Ji family. Although he has only been in Langzhou for a few months, he has already won the support of the generals and soldiers. If there is something wrong with him at this juncture, he will definitely arouse suspicion."
"Afraid of what?"
Lin Yanjing showed a sinister smile: "If my princess's guess is correct, the person who assassinated last night must have been sent by King Qinghe. Now Ji Rongheng is the one who is most reluctant to see Ji Rongheng staying in Langzhou. He is not even afraid of being accused of treason, so how could he be worried about being accused of murdering the governor of Langzhou."
After saying that, he hurriedly urged: "Hurry up and prepare. After tomorrow, I will let the world know who is the most intelligent and prestigious woman in the world."
Pei Jian has long seen that the eldest princess's heart is no longer with the royal family in Beijing, and what she wants is definitely not to dominate the court like the empress dowager, but to become an empress that people worship.
Since his elder brother fell ill, the rise and fall of the Pei clan can only be entrusted to this ambitious eldest princess.
Pei Jian gritted his teeth, and replied firmly: "Please rest assured, the eldest princess, the end will definitely help the princess to achieve her ambition."
After finishing speaking, he walked away with a turbulent heart.
In the posthouse, Chu Nanzhi was sitting in the courtyard, sipping tea slowly.
Just now, she has received an urgent report from Lin Jinxiao, knowing that Xie Jingchen has safely returned to Shita City, and that Bai Yu's army is retreating from the border one after another.
And Lin Jinxiao had already sent Zhang Yu to lead the navy to go north, while he himself led eight thousand light cavalry to secretly rush to Langzhou.
Thinking of reuniting with him after a long absence, and handing the little treasures back to him safe and sound, Chu Nanzhi couldn't stop feeling excited.
While she was full of joy, news suddenly came from the Governor's Mansion, saying that Princess Yan Jing held a banquet tomorrow and invited everyone to the mansion.
Chu Nanzhi glanced at Sang Qi silently, thought for a moment in her heart, and suddenly told her: "Sang Qi, you don't have to stay by my side these few days, you hide in the captain's mansion secretly, and protect the governor Ji .”
Sang Qi dare not rest assured, suspiciously said: "Master, if the servant is not by your side"
Before she could say anything, Chu Nanzhi quickly waved her hand and said, "Don't worry about me. After what happened last night, the Langzhou Army will definitely not take it lightly."
On the contrary, it was Ji Rongheng's safety that made her feel uneasy.
Langzhou is tightly guarded. Since the assassins can flood into the city to attack him, they will naturally find the opportunity to attack Ji Rongheng.
Regardless of whether these assassins are related to Lin Yanjing or not, as long as Ji Rongheng is kept, she firmly believes that Langzhou can be taken.
I have to make sure that this stubborn donkey is fine before Lin Jinxiao enters Langzhou.
