C158

The atmosphere in the Qianyuan Hall had become a bit awkward, as if they were standing in an icehouse. Zhao Jing squeezed the hand inside his sleeve, and started to think about how he could resolve this awkward situation.

But before she could say anything, Ke Bozhao seemed to have noticed Zhao Jing's dilemma and automatically retreated from the battle. Ke Bozhao bowed and said respectfully, "This subject will not make things difficult for Your Majesty. This subject will definitely let Your Majesty see my loyalty. Long live the My Emperor, this subject shall take his leave! "

"Go down!" Zhao Jing nodded in agreement.

Before Ke Bozhao left, he glanced at Zhao Jing, and then shifted his gaze to Dongfang Weiming's body. The two men looked at each other, and the smell of gunpowder that was emitted from their eyes sent shivers down one's spine.

Zhao Jing was forced to issue the military order because he thought that the matter this time might be related to Taifu Mansion. In order to prevent suspicion with regards to Taifu Mansion, Ke Bozhao had to thoroughly investigate and restore Qi Yunshan's innocence. Otherwise, Qi Yunshan would become the target of public criticism. Everyone in the world would spit at once, even if Qi Yunshan jumped into the Yellow River, he would not be able to wash away his anger. Prime Minister's Estate without Taifu Mansion would become a very independent existence, but to Ke Bozhao who was used to relying on Taifu Mansion, it wouldn't be a good thing for him for a short period of time.

When Dongfang Weiming looked back, he realized that the little girl was staring at the door, standing there motionlessly! Heh … What deep feelings. Look at the frustrated look on her face. It was good to be young, it was easy to be tempted by young ladies!

He coughed lightly and mocked coldly, "Almost like a watchstone!" As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows and stood by her side. The tip of her nose unconsciously snorted. Her face was filled with disdain.

Zhao Jing came back to her senses, curled her lips and crawled back into her blanket to stay there. She rolled her eyes at him, laid down without saying a word, and turned her body away from him.

"Heartache?" Someone was sitting on the edge of the bed, and his words were filled with an uncomfortable emotion.

Why did he say it was uncomfortable? It was because Zhao Jing felt that when he said those words, there seemed to be a needle piercing his own body, which was so piercing that it made him angry and wanted to fiercely beat him up. Zhao Jing suddenly realized that this was the feeling of asking for a beating! The Eastern Bastard who deserved a beating! Suddenly, someone squeezed his back, causing Zhao Jing to realize what was going on with the Bastard. Then, he wrapped himself in the blanket and quickly moved towards the bed.

But Dongfang Weiming knew everything, with a wave of his hand, it just so happened to land on her lower abdomen, and directly pulled her back into his embrace. She angrily turned her head, but he had one hand around her and the other on his forehead. He just calmly looked at her.

It was true that Zhao Jing did not know what the current Dongfang Weiming was thinking. He was the one who helped her to this position, who was also the one who nurtured things within her body. Even now, it was still him … She clearly wanted to use her power to seize over Qi Yunshan and Ke Bozhao, but why did she object to her contact with them? She couldn't figure out what this man meant.

Teasing her like a doll? Or was he playing around with it like a puppet? Or was it just a product of his momentary joy? He had previously been threatened by her mother, but now he felt bored?

His rough fingertips pinched her delicate lower jaw as he looked at her with a warm and cold gaze. "Is Your Majesty trying to guess what this humble subject is thinking at this moment? You guessed it? Or can't you guess? "

Zhao Jing looked at him. This man was also from a noble family, but why did he look like a rogue thug? Even though he knew that she was at his daughter's house, he still went up to her bed without any hesitation. Not only that, the rich and powerful juniors had calluses all over their hands. It was one thing for them to be rough on her, but they had to do it on her. Especially on her face, the pain was bone-deep. Seeing him like this, when he saw her frowning, he became even more excited and did not care if she would hurt or not!

"I guessed it!" She looked at him.

Dongfang Weiming was not in a rush, the warmth in his eyes increased by quite a bit as he slowly lowered his head. Warm breathing, with an ambiguous expression that shouldn't exist, wandered on her face. "But the word 'lie' is written in the emperor's eyes! "Actually, the emperor doesn't even know what this humble subject is thinking, does he?"

"I've long since guessed it. You knew that I wouldn't have guessed it, yet you still intentionally asked me that question." Zhao Jing moaned twice, and brushed off the hand he was using to pinch his own jaw, "It's so painful, don't touch me anymore. Others don't know, does Uncle still not know the principle that this man and woman shouldn't be close?"

"Who set up the beauty trap at the beginning?" He retorted sarcastically, "Could it be this humble official?"

"Did This Emperor let you climb into bed?" Did I let you touch my face? " Zhao Jing cast him a sidelong glance, "The things Uncle has said, aren't they afraid of making people laugh? Walking out of the door, let us see, the Uncle has a strong and sturdy body, I am so weak, who exactly bullied who? Anyone who saw it would know that Uncle did not have any excuses. Since Ke Bozhao has already made the order, then I will have to trouble Uncle to go back and watch! "I am not feeling well today and am going to rest!"

Dongfang Weiming inhaled a breath of cold air, he looked at the little girl who was wrapped in blankets, her temper was not small, this girl rarely got angry, and now she was angry at him for Ke Bozhao's sake?! He put his hand on her shoulder and pushed a little. "Have you forgotten the pain?"

Zhao Jing trembled violently. Only then did she remember that there was a bite mark on each of her shoulders. Subconsciously patting the place where the wound was, Zhao Jing snorted twice without uttering a word, with an angry look on his face. She pouted her lips as if she was angry, but instead of looking angry, she looked like a cute girl.

He discovered that she seemed to fade from her Young Man's modesty only when she was in front of him, revealing the feelings of a young girl that should have belonged to her. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? It meant that she didn't care about him? Or is it... Just think of him as an elder?

The former caused him to feel slightly consoled in his heart, while the latter caused him to feel furious for no reason.

Dongfang Weiming suddenly stood up, he then flicked his sleeves and left, the speed at which he changed his expression was so fast that even Zhao Jing felt ashamed. He still had the heart to tease her just now, but now she suddenly turned hostile, so quickly that it caught people off guard.

Wei Shuge hurriedly came in, looked at Zhao Jing who was sitting blankly on the bedside, and asked, "Your majesty, what happened? Regent hurt you? Just now … "Just now, he …"

"Have they left?" Zhao Jing asked.

Wei Shuge nodded his head, "Let's go, we're walking very fast, it's as if there's a dog chasing us from behind, we can't wait to fly out!" The description was overstated, and was indeed the truth. When Dongfang Weiming left, many people saw his rushed look.

Zhao Yuannan took the medicine and carefully asked, "Your majesty, this medicine …"

"It's the poison of the three parts of the pill. I have nothing to do with it, let's pour it on the table!" Zhao Jing rubbed between his brows.

"Yes sir!" As usual, Zhao Yuannan poured the medicine into an empty bottle. "Your Majesty, things have blown up so much this time, it will probably not end well. Add to that the fact that this Tutor Qi suddenly met with a roadblock outside the city, it would inevitably arouse suspicion. Do you think it's really Tutor Qi who did this? "

"Go find Wen Rusheng!" Zhao Jing said.

Zhao Yuannan returned the bottle to its place and looked at Wei Shuge with a puzzled expression. Both of them stared at each other, not sure why Zhao Jing did not check on Qi Family and Ke Bozhao and instead went to check on Wen Rusheng who had saved Zhao Jing. Regardless if it was Qi Yunshan's doing, if he could make use of this situation, wouldn't he be able to eliminate Qi Family in one fell swoop? Killing a king and seizing the throne was something that everyone could see. Even if he had the greatest excuse, he would still not be able to escape punishment!

Wei Shuge nodded, "This servant understands!"

"But your majesty, why didn't you strike while the iron was hot? This time, no matter who the real culprit is, as long as they maintain their belief that it is Qi Family, then the title of monarch slayer will be enough to annihilate all nine families of Qi Family! " Zhao Yuannan was anxious.

"Aren't you afraid of being pushed around?" Zhao Jing asked.

Zhao Yuannan was shocked in his heart, and his expression darkened, "But this is a rare opportunity, the emperor is sparing it for now. In the future, when Qi Yunshan returns to the capital, he will definitely increase his power! Your majesty, don't forget, this Qi Rufeng died in prison! Even if it wasn't killed by the Emperor, he died because of the Emperor. Qi Yunshan will definitely hold a grudge in his heart and will definitely take revenge! "

"Qi Yunshan is old!" Zhao Jing laughed coldly, "Even if he wanted revenge, he would have to find the person to succeed the mantle first. Otherwise, with his age, we can torture him to death, no? He had lost his beloved son, and the white-haired man must have hated him for giving away the black-haired man. However, Qi Yunshan did not flare up then, and it was impossible for him to do so now. He preserved his strength just so that he could make a comeback! "

"Back then, when Qi Rufeng rebelled, it was known by the entire palace, but the news outside was completely sealed off. Even if the people were to criticize him, no one would dare to say a single word. Do you still not understand the reason behind this? Many people are watching and waiting for me to fall from the Dragon Throne! Those fence-sitters, they were all waiting to see which one of the final victors was Dongfang Family! If we win, we will be changing dynasties. If we lose, we lose our lives and we have to pay the nine great families! "

Qi Yunshan had stayed in the capital for such a long time that he did not receive a single bit of news regarding the border trials. It could be seen that he was proficient at it, and it could be seen that during this period of time in the Royal Tomb, Qi Yunshan must have planned something out properly. Rather than letting the tigers return to the mountain, it would be better to keep them in the cage beside him. At the very least, he would have some confidence, since Dongfang Weiming was still in the capital.

"So, Qi Yunshan came back this time to find an heir?" Zhao Yuannan suddenly realized.

Zhao Jing slowly stood up, "He will gradually grow old, and then he will become more and more powerless. Now that he had lost his son, he would definitely rack his brains to find someone to take over his mantle and let this glory and wealth continue to be passed on. No one is blind, Qi Yunshan who has lost his son is like a tiger with its teeth pulled, it's useless no matter how beautiful you are right now, your heart will gradually loosen! "

"The Emperor's words are extremely true!" Zhao Yuannan nodded, "But … What if Qi Yunshan is looking for the Prime Minister? "

"Ke Bozhao has hidden some information about Qi Rufeng. In other words, Qi Yunshan has some complaints about his student. Furthermore, the most important thing is that Ke Bozhao is simply too smart. In the future, Qi Yunshan will not be able to hold him back, and in the end, he will still lose everything in his hands. " Zhao Jing squinted his eyes, "Qi Yunshan, you're not that stupid!"

Wei Shuge said, "So these two people were actually fighting openly and secretly as well?!"

"As long as there is power, there will be strife." Zhao Jing laughed, "If blood brothers are like that, then there is only master and disciple! It was not related by blood, at most, it was just a bundle of benefits, that's all! This time, we want to see what kind of tricks Ke Bozhao can play! Five days? "If we don't find out in five days, I really don't want to kill him!"

"Will the Emperor really kill him?" Zhao Yuannan asked, "Do we still have to keep him to deal with Qi Yunshan? Qi Yunshan would definitely not agree to it. "

Zhao Jing shook his head, "Dongfang Weiming, I already have the heart to kill you, this time Ke Bozhao …"

Suddenly, hurried footsteps came from outside.
