The expression on Zhao Jing's face disappeared in a flash. However, her perception was as sharp as the east, so how could she let the slightest fluctuation of emotions on her face? There was still Zhong Fu in this girl's heart. Otherwise, how could she become like this upon hearing these words? She had never been nervous for anyone before. The two of them had only met a few times, and Zhong Fu was a ruffian, so what was the good of it?
Dongfang Wenming thought for a bit. Some people's good points were hard for others to say, only the people around them knew. He wondered when Zhao Jing had found out about Zhong Fu's condition. Dongfang Wenming tightened his sleeve and looked at her thoughtfully. He didn't say anything for a long time. He sat on the edge of the soft couch, contemplating deeply. Zhao Jing was flustered, his heart pounding furiously.
"Father Zhong …" The little girl opened her mouth. From Dongfang Wenming's perspective, she wanted to plead on behalf of Zhong Fu.
Dongfang Wenming's heart was inexplicably agitated. He slowly withdrew his gaze from her body, looking like he was sitting upright. His expression was indifferent and there was not a single trace of emotion on his face, "What do you want to say? Just let it go like that? I can forget about it, but does Qi Yunshan agree? What about the Prime Minister's Estate? With a word from Cobb, "Long live the Emperor," did the Emperor really think he was willing to give in to you? "Childish!"
Zhao Jing pouted at him, "Then what do you think we should do? I was the one who gifted him to you, using Nangong Zhe's hand to avoid arousing suspicion and allowing the Prime Minister's Residence to interfere. Now that Nangong Zhe is prepared, what can I do? Since we can't repeat the same old trick, I have no other choice. "Father Zhong only wants to scold me. If I have the free time, I might as well help me clean up this mess. After all these years, hasn't Father Zhong gotten used to helping me clean up?"
"So the Emperor took habit for granted?" The East looked at her coldly.
The little girl humphed but didn't say anything. After a while, she lifted the blanket and got off the bed, disappearing into the dragon bed. The bed today was made using the best materials, so that it wouldn't collapse with just one palm from him! She wrapped herself in the blanket, only revealing a pair of eyes that were staring straight at him.
Dongfang Wenming rubbed his glabella, he cursed a bit, but wasn't he happy? [Is this little girl trying to go up to the sky?] He stood with his hands behind his back and looked coldly at Zhao Jing on the bed. "Does the emperor plan on being a hands-off manager who will hand over the entire matter to this humble subject to handle?"
"You … Will we still be able to send him away like we did in Jiangbei? " Zhao Jing asked in a low voice, "Even if I have to hand it over to the people of Phoenix City!" As the Zhong Family's promise fell into the hands of Qi Yunshan and Cobb, I'd rather have it from you! At least with Father Zhong, he will do his best to protect me, but they … "You want my life to be far more important than mine!"
"It's good that Your Majesty understands!" Dongfang Wenming narrowed his eyes, "That kid, Zhongfu, is a stubborn donkey, and his temper is carved from the same mold as his father." Thus, sending him away was just a matter of treatment. If he didn't know the reason for his visit to the capital, then the nine head oxen might not be able to pull him away! You must know, if Qi Yunshan wants to take the risk and force Zhong Fu to be the proton in the capital, then the enmity between the Emperor and Phoenix City will erupt! "
Zhao Jing nodded as his face paled. "I understand!"
"The Emperor doesn't understand!" Dongfang Wenming said, "You don't understand how ruthless Zhong Zhangtian is. If he comes to the capital, I'm afraid …"
Zhao Jing's body subconsciously shrunk back. "I am Zhong Fu's friend. Even if his father doesn't look at the Buddhist Sangha, he still has to look at the Buddhist Sangha!"
"His father dotes on him, but you have to understand that no matter who does it in Grand Xia, the world is still the world." Dongfang Wenming turned around and left, "Qi Yunshan is on his way back, the emperor has been causing trouble elsewhere, but this official will clean up the mess for you!"
As he said this, he was already out the door.
Zhou Zhizhi was waiting outside the door, "Master!"
"Have you checked it out?" Dongfang Xi asked as he walked.
"Yes sir!" Zhou Zhiqian nodded, "They are together now. The news will be locked in the Full Moon Residence as much as possible, and no one will dare to reveal it!"
"The paper cannot hold the fire. Cobb will know soon enough!" Dongfang Wenyi's eyes were cold. "I'm afraid we won't be able to leave this time!"
Where else could Zhong Fu run to when Cobb called him from the city and Qiyun Mountain outside the city? Once Qi Yunshan found out about Zhong Fu and Zhao Jing's relationship, he would understand that he had no way to interfere. Since that was the case, he might as well stir up some trouble and forget about falling into the lake! Ten thousand li away from Phoenix City, that Zhong Zhangtian had always been headstrong, so he only believed in the truth and didn't believe in anyone's explanation! The so-called truth was probably the fact that Zhong Fu would become a proton in the near future!
Zhou Zhizi panicked a little as he hurriedly followed behind Dongfang Wenming. He could only curse in his heart: "An inconsiderate little emperor, why are you messing with me?" This was a good thing. The lord had planned to quietly bring the people out from the palace and send them back to Phoenix City under the watchful eyes of Qi Yunshan while they were still busy returning to the city. This time, he was going to be messed up by the little emperor. Not only was he going to mess things up, he was also going to use a few more sh * t sticks to stir things up. This was completely hopeless!
As soon as Dongfang Wenming left, Wei Shuge and Zhao Yuannan hurriedly entered the house. Zhao Yuannan closed the door behind him. Wei Shuge walked up to Zhao Jing with a flustered expression. "Your majesty, something terrible has happened. I'm the crown prince of the Duke's estate …"
"He returned to the city!" Zhao Jing narrowed his eyes.
Wei Shuge was stunned for a moment before she slowly squatted in front of Zhao Jing's bed. "Did the Regent know?"
Zhao Jing nodded. "He helped me clean up this mess!" Qi Yunshan would be returning to the city very soon. If he didn't send his men out before then, Cobb would probably call for them to move on. There was also the culprit behind this string of murders. He probably wasn't going to stay idle either, so this time … I'm afraid I've caused a huge disaster. " She looked fixedly at Wei Shuge, "Shuge, did I do wrong? "I should believe that the reason why the East is unfathomable is that he was able to let off Zhong Fu in Jiangbei. It is likely that he did not wish for Zhong Fu to land in Ke Bo Ling's hands. If I did not make the decision this time …"
"Your majesty!" Zhao Yuannan interrupted her, "Even the emperor would not have expected such an outcome. Who knew that the heir to the Duke's Mansion was such a clown!"
"If I knew this would happen, I would have tied him up and thrown him back to Phoenix City!" Wei Shuge narrowed her eyes. "It's my fault. I thought everything would be fine if I could just send him out. Who knew he would come back so soon!?" Qi Yunshan will be here soon, it will not be so easy to send them out! "
"The people of the Prime Minister's Estate have been keeping an eye out for any movements in the city, especially the Regent's Estate. They were originally looking for Zhong Fu, so …" Zhao Jing took a deep breath. "This Emperor has made a mistake!" "I've always felt that I could do these things well, but only in the end did I realize that my abilities were insufficient to do this!"
Zhao Yuannan choked with sobs. "His Majesty has done very well! Think about two years ago, we had nothing, not even our own lives. But now, have you all survived? "
The three of them looked at each other in dismay. Wei Shuge lowered her voice and said, "She's at Full Moon Restaurant!"
Zhao Jing raised his head and Wei Shuge added, "Together with Wen Yuye!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Jing suddenly recalled the unspoken words of the East. If he wanted to send Zhong Fu out, he would need to know Zhong Fu's true purpose in coming to the capital. Zhong Fu and Wen Yuye? Wen Yuye and Zhong Fu? Zhao Jing frowned slightly. "These two shouldn't have some kind of unspeakable secret, right?" Zhong Fu returned to the capital to look for Wen Yuye? Wen Yuye hid the Zhong Fu? "Two people …"
"Your majesty, what are you muttering about?" Zhao Yuannan asked.
Zhao Jing snapped out of his daze. "N-nothing!" It was just a guess, but he felt goosebumps all over his body. Forget it, she had better think about what she should prepare for Qi Yunshan's return!
A headache! What a headache!
The weird thing was that the mountain collapsed in the afternoon, causing the Imperial Tutor to be unable to return to the city. He had to wait for the rocks to move before he could continue on his journey. In other words, the collapse of this mountain had given Zhao Jing and the others some time to rest.
Zhao Jing pondered. Could it be that the East wasn't clear?
However, when Dongfang Wenming heard this news, he only frowned, but didn't say anything. Zhou Zhiqian knew very well that this order did not come from his master. It had nothing to do with the Regent's Mansion. Of course, it couldn't possibly be the words of the Prime Minister's Estate. Qi Yunshan and Ke Bo Ling were people with the same pants, how could they go back on their word? The question was, who was it?
"Wen Rusheng?" Zhao Jing stared blankly at him for a long time. "Why is he looking for me?"
Wei Shuge handed over the note. "This servant doesn't know either. The person just sent you a message."
Zhao Jing opened the slip of paper and saw that it read: "Long time no see, long time no see. I'm looking forward to it!"
These few words were concise and concise. He didn't say what the matter was, nor did he have any other intentions, but it made him feel at ease to let others read it. Zhao Jing handed the paper slip to Wei Shuge. "Burn it and leave no trace behind." "Since Qi Yunshan will not be able to return in a couple of days, I shall have to ask Wen Rusheng to do something for me in the future when I am out on a trip. You can't be negligent!"
"Yes sir!" Wei Shuge nodded and burned the note to help Zhao Jing change clothes.
This time, Wen Rusheng was invited to a tea house. The tea house was somewhat secluded and quiet. Since everyone was listening to books in the main hall, she went up the stairs to the private room. When he pushed the door open and entered, Wen Rusheng was sitting by the window. There was a faint glow of worry between her brows. His face was gloomy as he thoughtfully looked out of the window. His white clothes were like lotuses, and for a moment, he felt as if he had transcended the mortal world.
Wen Rusheng heard the commotion and slowly looked back at the door with a cup in hand. The moment he saw Zhao Jing, his lips curved up into a smile. "You're here!" It was as if he had been friends for many years. His voice was calm and familiar, but it felt very comfortable. He was a very comfortable person.
Zhao Jing sat down, completely different from his sickly appearance. Although Zhao Jing's face was pale, his youth's demeanor was refined and refined. The two years of pampered living in the palace had caused her to exude a modesty and elegance that ordinary people would not have. Zhao Jing lowered his head and looked at the plum blossoms floating in the cup. He brought the tip of his nose close to smell the faint plum blossoms' fragrance and took a sip. His lips revealed a faint sweetness, sweet but not greasy.
"Plum blossom tea?" "Why is it sweet?" Zhao Jing didn't understand.
"I put some sugar in!" Wen Rusheng smiled and said, "I was wondering if someone as active as you would like to eat sweets!"
Zhao Jing nodded. "I really like it!" Instead, he asked, "What business do you have with me today?"
Wen Rusheng coughed lightly and looked at her tenderly, "If there's nothing important, I can't look for you? I don't have many friends in the capital, so I feel lonely after a while. Right now, you are the only one who is close to me, so … " He began to cough again, his face as pale as paper. "Brother Zijing, do you know what it's like to be alone?"
"Don't you have brothers and sisters?" Zhao Jingzhong was stunned.
Wen Rusheng shook his head and said faintly, "I do. How about you?"
Zhao Jing laughed bitterly. "At least you still have some relatives, but I …"
Upon hearing this, Wen Rusheng could only smile at her in a somewhat strange manner.
