[Rebirth] The lord wants a minister to die

Chapter 115

Ning Qi frowned deeply, and looked at Ning Zuo with eyes as cold as ice: "I don't understand King Shen's meaning."

Ning Zuo looked around, as if he was on guard for something.

Ning Qi: "Don't worry, Prince Fengming's mansion is made of copper and iron, and the flies outside cannot come in."

Ning Zuo said in a deep voice: "Some people have been staring at me in Qingzhou. At first, I thought it was the eyeliner sent by Ning Jin, so I sent someone to follow me, and found out that these people have contacts with Jiang Guo."

"People from the Jiang country?"

"It's Jiang Guo Xie Jinghong's people." Ning Zuo suppressed his voice again, and said, "The king's people followed Xie Jinghong all the way to the capital, and found that he had sneaked into the palace, and it was Concubine Shu who was protecting him." People in the palace, and he took Ning Ke out of the palace. Ning Ke called him foster father."

Now that Ning Zuo has become a useless person, people will no longer cast their eyes on him, and no one will think about what a useless person can do, so they will relax their vigilance against him.After Ning Zuo left the capital, many things could be seen clearly, which is probably what the authorities meant.

Ning Qi was shocked, his eyes were full of surprise.

Ning Zuo said: "When the news came back, I didn't believe it, so I searched along the line of Concubine Shu. At first, Concubine Shu was only the concubine of the father in the palace. She was redeemed, and my people went to the flower building to ask, and it was Xie Jinghong's people who sent Concubine Shu to the flower building. I remember that the news of Concubine Shu's pregnancy came out not long after she entered the mansion, and Ning Ke was a Seven Star Son, so I suspect that Ning Ke is not the biological son of the emperor, his father is Xie Jinghong."

"You mean, Xie Jinghong wants to steal the country?"

Ning Zuo pursed his lips, clutching his inner sleeves: "Ning Jin seems to have been tracking down Xie Jinghong's movements, and he found out that this matter is only a matter of time. The third uncle is Ning Ke's elder brother. Once Ning Jin After discovering this, will he spare third uncle? Xie Jinghong wants to steal the country, so I hope you can exile third uncle to Yongzhou, save his life, and protect our Ning family."

Ning Qi was silent for a long time.

Ning Zuo knew it would take time, he believed in King Feng Ming.The master of the great country said that he is the destiny of protecting Luan Xing. From the moment he took the surname "Ning", no matter what, Ning Qi must put Jiangshan Sheji first.

"If it really comes to a time of desperation, please ask King Fengming to put the world's people, the country, and the country as the most important thing."

Ning Zuo left Fengming Palace after talking to him.

In the early morning of the next day, Ning Zuo made people prepare to return to Qingzhou, while he went to Prince Rui's mansion to pick up Yongle.

Now that there is an early winter chill, He Zhan's health doesn't seem to be recovering very well, so Ning Jin took him to Prince Rui's residence to recuperate.When Ning Zuo came, He Zhan was listening to an opera in the back garden, Ning Jin didn't allow him to leave the house, he thought he was bored, so Ning Jin invited an opera troupe to entertain him.

Yongle looked fresh, and also played with He Zhan.

Yongle had been running for quite a while, sweating profusely, leaning on He Zhan's lap and saying, "Dirty, hair..."

He Zhan saw that her hair was messed up like a chicken coop, took the red string and tied it up again: "Uncle will tie it up for you."

Ning Zuo saw He Zhan tying Yongle's hair from a distance, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he shouted, "Yongle."

Ning Zuo asked someone to push him closer, Yong Le looked up and saw Ning Zuo, his round eyes were bright, and because He Zhan was holding his hair, he didn't dare to run forward, so he could only shout: "Foul King!"

He Zhan tied up Yongle's hair, patted her little head, and told her to find Ning Zuolai.Yongle ran up to Ning Zuo's side in a bouncing manner: "Foul King..."

Walking in front of He Zhan, Ning Zuo nodded lightly: "Third Uncle."

He Zhan smiled and said: "I haven't been in good health recently. I was afraid that I would overwhelm you with illness, so I didn't dare to visit you. How is the prince recently?"

"Very good. Qingzhou raises people, no wonder Third Uncle liked Qingzhou the most before."

"Is this time looking for Prince Rui? He's not at the residence right now, maybe he has to wait a little longer."

Ning Zuo shook his head: "I'm leaving soon, this time I'm here to bring Yongle back to Qingzhou."

"...Really?" He Zhan took Yongle with him for a few months, but Ning Zuo suddenly said that he wanted to take him away, but he was still a little bit reluctant.But Yongle can't always be without his father.He Zhan said: "I will let the nanny pack Yongle's things, the prince will wait?"

"it is good."

He Zhan gave some instructions to the boy beside him, and then waved to Yongle: "Come on, Yongle, ask uncle to hug you for a while."

Yongle was also obedient, nestled into He Zhan's arms, played with He Zhan's hair after a while, and learned to tie his hair.

Ning Zuo smiled lowly, and said: "Yongle is very good." After a pause, Ning Zuo said again: "Does Third Uncle want to go to Qingzhou? Put your health first. I heard that you are not feeling well recently, so why not go to Qingzhou to recuperate, the climate there is better, and it is not as difficult as the winter in Kyoto."

He Zhan was silent for a while, then smiled and said, "Kyoto is also very good."

The implication is that I don't want to leave.Ning Zuo knew that he would answer like this, so instead of going to He Zhan directly, he went to ask King Fengming for help.

The two sat for a long time, and He Zhan kept making Yongle laugh.Yongle had been playing for a long time, and he was really tired. He fell asleep after lying in He Zhan's arms for a while.He Zhan patted her gently to coax her to sleep.

He Zhan hugged her to Ning Zuo after she was sound asleep.

Ning Zuo took it over, looked down at Yongle's sleeping face for a long time, and waited until the sky became twilight, Ning Zuo asked, "Did Third Uncle know about the attack on me?"

He Zhan's body froze, and he answered after a while: "I don't know."

Ning Zuo couldn't say he was happy or worried, he was happy that He Zhan didn't participate in this matter, but worried that Ning Jin didn't trust He Zhan.

It was late at night when Ning Jin returned to the mansion, and the people in the mansion said that Ning Zuo had already picked up Yongle. Ning Jin was a little unhappy, and when he went to Poyue Pavilion to see He Zhan, he saw him secretly drinking again.This time it's not about getting drunk, his body is cold, drinking some warm wine to warm him up will make him feel better, but alcohol is also harmful to the body, so it's not advisable to drink too much.

"I caught it this time." Ning Jin came over and saw He Zhan hiding the wine glass in his sleeve.

He Zhan was caught straight, his face was a little red: "I just smell it. Really." He didn't say it firmly.

Ning Jin smiled and said, "You said the same thing last time. You've been taking medicine recently, and you should drink less because of your health."

He Zhan said: "Yongle is gone, I always feel that there is something missing when I lack someone."

"I know you like children, how about I pick a well-behaved one from my relatives called uncle to take with me later?"

"No need."

How can we separate the flesh and blood of others?

When mentioning flesh and blood, He Zhan seemed to think of something, his eyes dimmed, and for the first time he had a tentative thought.He said: "In the future, when you have an heir, the minister will help take care of it, and it will be the same."

"I don't know how to marry a concubine."

"My lord..."

Ning Jin held He Zhan's hand: "I know my uncle likes children, but I don't want you to marry another woman. Even if it will make you regret your whole life, I don't want to. You have such a big heart, let me be a concubine After that, I didn’t.” Ning Jin put his hand on his heart and said, “You are the only one I want.”

After getting the answer he wanted, He Zhan was not happy at all.There was a dilemma in the past, no matter how Ning Jin answered, it was not satisfactory in the end.He Zhan said: "There is no such rule. When you become the emperor, how should the people talk about you? Longyang's obsession, disobedience to etiquette, these will become symbols in the annals of history."

Ning Jin: "The common people have also slandered you, why don't you care?"

"What's wrong with slandering me? You...you are different."

"What's wrong with slandering me? The third uncle is different from me. This is my family business, why should I take care of others? The world can blame you, but you can't."

"Ning Jin..."

Ning Jin didn't want to get entangled with him anymore, and he didn't want He Zhan to feel uneasy about it.He Zhan has protected him from the wind and rain for so many years, and now he should stand in front of He Zhan, otherwise how can he be worthy of He Zhan's scars and illnesses all over his body?

Ning Jin turned and said, "The enthronement ceremony will be here soon. Uncle, get well soon, and everything will be fine in the future."

"Emperor Jing Zhao..."

"It's almost the same, that is, these two days."

He Zhan looked at Ning Jin's expression and asked, "Are you really... not sad?"

"I'm just an outsider." Ning Jin smiled, "What's so sad." An outsider like Ning Zuo and Ning You.Because of Emperor Jing Zhao, there was a lot of estrangement between him and He Zhanping.Anyway, when Emperor Jing Zhao killed He Dazhong, He Zhan couldn't forget this grudge.Ning Jin still remembers that when He Zhan came out of Wutong Hall, he held a knife to his neck, his eyes were so fierce that he wished to cut him into pieces, but the words he said were sharper than the knife, and every word was life-threatening .

"Anyway, he is also your biological father."

These four words seemed to touch Ning Jin's sensitive nerves. He paused and asked, "If Xie Jinghong were replaced, what would Uncle do?"

"...I understand."

On the day of Emperor Jing Zhao's death, the white silks hanging all over the city, as if the first snow fell in this winter.

Those who watch the night outside the palace walls can hear the mournful cries of Ai Ai in the palace, and there is always a chill down their backs when patrolling at night.

"The past few years have been turbulent. The emperor has left one after another. The emperor has a shorter life than us miscellaneous workers. It seems that his life will be shortened in that position." A soldier held a lantern, and another man dressed as a commoner talking.The two were patrolling the deserted street, and the commoner replied: "I always feel that the imperial city is very cloudy these days, it's really cold recently."

"Isn't that right! When the snow falls, the weather will be really cold." The soldier said, "Ah... Actually, it's no big deal, the emperor is dead, and Prince Rui will succeed to the throne. When the time comes, there will be a lively enthronement ceremony. What monsters and ghosts have seen it?" True dragon, isn't that just running around like a mouse?"

"That's the reason. A country cannot be without a king for a day, so calm down quickly, and don't make any more fools."

The soldier suddenly remembered something, looked around, and said in a low voice, "Hey, do you know? I heard a big secret recently. It's true from the palace!"

"What's the matter?"

"Let me tell you, don't spread the word. People in the palace won't allow it."

"Who are we with whom? You still can't trust me!?"

The soldier leaned towards him, and said in a low voice, "Do you know how He Zhan, the first-rank Duke of the dynasty, managed to get to that position?"

"...Isn't his father the Duke of Zhongguo?"

"Oh, think about it. Duke Zhong committed a serious crime and wanted to die, but the emperor didn't rehabilitate him. It can be seen that their family's corruption and cover-up is true. In this way, you say that He Zhan can still accept it. Sir?"

"What's the matter? I heard people say that this person has a bad reputation. Does the Jinchai Pavilion know? I heard that the man is a regular customer, and no girl in the house has ever asked him to sleep with him. She is also rich."

The soldier sneered and said, "Hey, let me tell you that this is a big secret! Do you know that this Duke is actually a Duanxiu?"

"Huh? He's good...that bite?"

"He thought he was hiding deep. There is no impenetrable wall in this world. He became the Duke of Zhong because of his ability on the bed. Look at his face, he is impartial. He looks really good-looking, right? The man will lose his mind when he sees it."

When he thought about it, he said in surprise: "No wonder. I heard that he used to be a ninth-rank Zhong Yilang, but after he met Prince Rui, he... ah... Could it be that his... is Prince Rui?" He felt as if he had discovered it. A shocking secret!

The soldier covered his mouth and looked around quickly: "Shh, don't say it! Be careful with your head."

"I'm sure I won't say it, I'm sure I won't say it."
