Chapter 527： Protect your husband

Chapter 527 Protecting the Husband

Without evidence, Chu Nanzhi didn't dare to speculate any more, but said: "According to the students, it is not enough to rule out the suspicion that any prince wants to murder the foolish husband, even the old ministers back then, maybe There is an inner ghost in the East Palace, or there are people from the kings who have been planted beside the empress dowager."

She remembered that Lin Jinmu was able to instruct the imperial physician in the palace when she poisoned Da Chen's family that day, so it would not be difficult to place people in the palace.

Her reminder made Chang Yanjue start to ponder: "Not many people know what happened back then, except for His Majesty and the Empress Dowager, and the Princess."

Thinking of one more person, Chang Lao suddenly frowned: "Grand Concubine Ji, Jinxiao's biological mother, she collapsed after Prince Ting'an was bestowed to death, and the fetus in her womb is still the nanny next to her." Fazi was born smoothly, and when the new emperor ascended the throne, the empress dowager took the concubine and the old nanny out of Jiaofangsi and placed them beside her to take care of her, the old nanny had passed away many years ago."

Staring deeply at Chu Nanzhi, Chang Yanjue's tone became extraordinarily heavy: "The concubine has been insane for the past few years, talking crazily all day long. Last time Princess Shu came here, I asked her carefully. The Empress Dowager did not inform the Concubine about this, and even the two envoys who were brought back from the Jiaofang Division to take care of the Concubine in the East Palace were placed in the Empress Dowager's palace, and they have never seen outsiders in these years."

"What about the people around His Majesty?"

Chu Nanzhi asked hesitantly.

"With His Majesty?"

Chang Yanjue frowned even deeper.

He really can't guarantee this.

He also began to doubt his inference just now.

"This matter is very complicated. Let's wait for the students to enter Beijing before considering and inquiring."

Chu Nanzhi looked at the two elders quite sadly, so she had to change the topic and said: "Nowadays, people in the world only regard the poor man as the blood of the Luyan Port clan, but His Majesty and the Empress Dowager tried their best to restore his title. Let him become the focus of everyone's attention, did you not plan for him?"

Chang Yanjue naturally understood what she meant.

The re-establishment of the prince who has been cut off will undoubtedly be feared, especially when the new emperor ascends the throne in the future.

"Regarding this matter, the old man has not received a definite order. Although he has exchanged letters with the Empress Dowager occasionally, he dare not mention Xiao'er's life experience in the letter. The last time Princess Shu came here, he only brought a sentence The Empress Dowager's oral order."

Chang Yanjue sighed deeply: "It's hard to send it out, and it's even harder to get it back."

Nie Huai'an also lamented: "Back then when the old Qinghe King entered Jingqin King, he was assassinated on the way to sacrifice to heaven. Although His Majesty is grateful for the support of the Empress Dowager and sympathizes with his cousin born by his aunt, he has never thought about it. To welcome Jinxiao back, you, Mr. Chang, secretly bestowed the Emperor Sword when you returned to hermitage, so that he could protect the members of the Luyan Ganglin clan from any danger.

It wasn't until recent years that His Majesty's dragon body became weaker and he had no heirs, so he confided his heart to the Empress Dowager, and wanted to welcome Jinxiao back, but now the court is no longer in His Majesty's hands, and even Jingling's old ministers have turned to Nandu King , without complete assurance, neither dared to announce Jinxiao's identity hastily, nor dared to mention the matter of welcoming him to Beijing, the best way for the current plan is to let him inherit the title with the blood of Prince Pingning of Luyan Port , to guard southern Xinjiang, to observe the changes of time. "

"But going on like this is not an option after all."

Chu Nanzhi had a lot of worries in his heart. At this time, in front of the elders, he simply said bluntly: "Now all the kings are coveting the high position, sorry for the students' boldness, don't the elders worry that those highnesses in the capital will take advantage of His Majesty's dragon body?" Is there a rebellion in instability?"

"I'll see who dares."

Chang Yanjue immediately flew into a rage: "The defense of central Beijing is now guarded by Princess Shu herself, and these princes will not dare to make mistakes even if they have the courage."

"Princess Shu's ability, Nan Zhi, you should believe. She will definitely ensure that the capital is safe. I'm afraid that your majesty's body will not be able to last for a long time. I heard from Yin Jia Erlang that your majesty is coughing up blood every day, and his health is getting worse."

Nie Huai'an couldn't help sighing, "Even if Jinxiao's identity is announced right now, with his current prestige, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to compete with King Qinghe. There are many hidden worries, the murderer who assassinated Emperor Ai is still unsolved, if you can't make sure everything is safe, you must not expose Jin Xiao's identity."

Emperor Ai is the posthumous title given by the old Qinghe King Lin Tingxian after his death. After he was assassinated that year, everyone suspected that it was the henchmen of Lin Tingyu, the second highness of the Changrong King who initiated the palace coup. After that, he was arrested and searched. The gang in Tingwei's Mansion exhausted torture but did not find any whereabouts.

"Does the second elder think there is such a possibility that the assassination of Emperor Ai was the same group that is now trying to murder Lin Dalang?"

Chu Nanzhi always felt that there was something strange behind this matter.

Being able to assassinate the emperor during the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, the person who framed Lin Jinxiao now has many people covering up for him, which shows that his prestige is extraordinary.

There must not be too many people with such powerful strength in the world.

Chang Yanjue and Nie Huai'an both shook their heads blankly: "It's really hard to speak nonsense without evidence."

Nie Huai'an said with a wry smile: "Nan Zhi, although Chang Lao and I can accompany you when we enter Beijing, there are so many eyes and ears in Beijing, we cannot accompany you into the palace. When the time comes, the Empress Dowager will summon you and the little treasures." , you can talk to her more about the doubts in your heart, and also check out her old man's tone, so that you and your wife can make plans next time."

“Students remember.”

Chu Nanzhi knew that many things could only be said here, and it was inconvenient to say more in Beijing.

But Chang Yanjue didn't remind me about this anymore, but said instead: "You are Jinxiao's wife now, if it's convenient for you after entering the palace, you can take the little treasures to visit the concubine, she likes children the most in her life .”

It is unrealistic for them to recognize each other at the moment, but when he thought of when he was the prince and tutor, every time he saw the princess, such a gentle and dignified lady was forced to become a crazy woman, and he felt very sad in his heart.

"Student wrote it down."

Chu Nanzhi originally thought that she would not have a mother-in-law in this life, but she never thought that the mother-in-law was still alive, and she was a lunatic. This is really hard work.

Just thinking that Lin Jinxiao treated her well, and Concubine Ji had such a hard life, she couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic in her heart, and began to think about whether she could visit the concubine after entering the palace.

At any rate, she is a former princess. When she is cured, she will not be as tricky and difficult to get along with as Chen.

After chatting about things, seeing that it was getting late, Chu Nanzhi got up immediately, and ordered: "Today Lin Dalang personally organized the banquet, I'm afraid it's almost ready, and the two elders just happened to go to taste his handicrafts together."

"What, the banquet he arranged personally?"

Chang Yanjue's eyes were full of contempt: "He is a rough man, how can he know how to cook, isn't this intentional to harm the old man and you, Mr. Nie, you eat by yourself, we will go back now."

Nie Huai'an also had a bitter expression on his face: "What kind of wind is Jinxiao today? Why do you want to cook by yourself? I've never heard that he can cook?"

"Hey, the second elder might as well go over and try it. The students and little treasures have all had the honor of tasting his jasmine shrimp tofu soup. It is indeed delicious, and the second elder will not be disappointed."

Chu Nanzhi was embarrassed to tell the reason why Lin Jinxiao was cooking in person, but Mr. Chang always belittled the little boy so much, she couldn't help but feel protective, and sincerely invited the two elders to go there together.

Seeing her expression of sincerity, Mr. Chang and Mr. Nie reluctantly had to follow her to the living room.
