Chapter 51 Secret Letter
In the Prime Minister's Mansion in Qiyang, there was a man kneeling in the Prime Minister's study. This man lowered his head and did not dare to look at the Prime Minister standing in front of him. He could feel the anger in Prime Minister Luo Lun's heart.
"Trash, a bunch of trash, I've raised you for so many years, but you can't even kill a brat."
Luo Lun clenched his fist tightly and punched the table with a bang, which made the person kneeling in front of him tremble. Then Luo Lun asked people to get off. He sat alone in front of the table and thought.
What are you wearing?
"Father..."
Luo Lun's son, Luo Qi, entered the study and saluted Luo Lun. Luo Qi was narrow-minded and cunning. In terms of scheming, he was even better than Luo Lun.
"What are you here for?"
Luo Lun only had an only son, Luo Qi, and he doted on this son since childhood. Coupled with the authority of the Prime Minister's Palace, Luo Qi developed a bold and reckless character.
"Father, I know that my father has been worried about Lin Xiao's death recently, but I have a plan. Not only can my father kill Nangong Jianyu in a bright and powerful way, he can also raise troops to punish the Nangong family."
Luo Qi smiled very sinisterly. He took out a document and handed it to Lauren. After Lauren opened it and read it, a smile gradually appeared on his face. In the end, the two father and son burst into laughter.
"Qi'er, I'll leave this matter to you. Remember not to leave any clues, otherwise our Luo family will be doomed."
Luo Lun warned again and again that this matter was too big. If it was not done well, it would bring disaster to the Luo family. If it succeeded, it would also make the Luo family a deep-rooted and undefeated family in the Great Zhou Kingdom.
In the palace, there was a person rushing towards the Fengqing Palace. This person was none other than Gongsun Qi. He was ordered to investigate all the officials. As the investigation went deeper, he learned more and more, and became more frightened and frightened.
"Father, I want to meet the Holy Father."
Gongsun Qi held a secret letter in his hand, which was sent back from the Western Wei Kingdom. The things in the secret letter involved too many people, and some of them shocked him.
"Lord Gongsun, Your Majesty is negotiating with several elders of the royal family about the sacrificial ceremony. How about Lord Gongsun come back tomorrow?"
There was one day left before the royal sacrificial ceremony. Eunuch Wei looked at Gongsun Qi in embarrassment because the emperor told him that he would not see any ministers today.
"Father-in-law, this matter is of great importance. Gongsun Qi must face the emperor. Please let me know."
Eunuch Wei knew that Gongsun Qi had always been steady and nothing important, so he could not be in such a hurry, especially when he saw the secret letter in Gongsun Qi's hand. Eunuch Wei finally nodded, turned around and walked towards Fengqing Hall.
"Your Majesty, Lord Gongsun Qi and Gongsun are outside the palace asking for an audience."
As soon as Eunuch Wei finished speaking, the emperor's face turned ugly. He turned around and glared at Eunuch Wei, who was so frightened that Eunuch Wei immediately knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, the old slave also told Lord Gongsun that Your Majesty is not here today, but Lord Gongsun held a secret letter and told the old slave that the matter was of great importance, so the old slave came to inform His Majesty."
Eunuch Wei lowered his head and lay on the ground and said tremblingly, he knew that this emperor, who usually looked cheerful, was superficial, and his real methods were ruthless.
"Your Majesty, the matters for the sacrificial ceremony are almost finished. Since it is Lord Gongsun who wants to meet the saint, it must be a big event. We can take care of the rest of the sacrificial ceremony. Your Majesty should give top priority to state affairs."
"In that case, I'll bother the elders. Elders, walk slowly."
Several elders resigned to the emperor, and the emperor also expressed his gratitude to the elders. After the elders left, the emperor announced that Gongsun Qi had paid an audience.
"Call Gongsun Qi in."
After the emperor finished speaking, Eunuch Wei immediately went to summon him. After a while, Gongsun Qi knelt in front of the emperor and presented the secret letter in his hands. Eunuch Wei took the secret letter and handed it to the emperor.
"Are you the only one who has read this secret letter?"
"Go back to your majesty, I've only seen it."
Facing the emperor's solemn look, Gongsun Qi also knew the seriousness of this matter. If it didn't involve some people he couldn't touch, he wouldn't need to report it to the emperor.
"Gongsun Qi, I want you to go to the Western Wei Kingdom as soon as possible to find out this matter. You can only go to the Western Wei Kingdom alone."
The emperor held the secret letter in his hand, and anger gradually rose in his eyes. If the things in the secret letter were true, he would never tolerate it.
Gongsun Qi took the order and left. Not long after he left, another person hurried towards Fengqing Hall. This person also had a secret letter in his hand.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, do you have any business coming to Fengqing Hall?"
Eunuch Wei had just sent Gongsun Qi away and welcomed Luo Lun. He was very curious. The two men came one after another, holding a secret letter in their hands. However, although he was curious, he did not dare to ask.
"Please tell me, father-in-law, that Luo Lun is going to meet the Holy Spirit."
Eunuch Wei asked Luo Lun to wait. Soon after he entered the Fengqing Hall, he came out to let Luo Lun in, and then brought Luo Lun to the emperor.
"I pay my respects to Your Majesty. May Your Majesty live long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long lives."
"My beloved, please get up. I wonder what your beloved is talking about when you see me?"
The emperor personally helped Luo Lun up and looked at Luo Lun with a smile. He had already seen the secret letter in Luo Lun's hand.
"Your Majesty, I have received a secret letter. The minister in the secret letter does not dare to make the decision, so I came here to report to Your Majesty and hope that Your Majesty will make a decision."
Luo Lun handed the secret letter to the emperor. The emperor opened the secret letter and read the contents. He yelled loudly and angrily that this was unreasonable and ordered Luo Lun to investigate the matter strictly.
"Your Majesty, this matter involves the Nangong family. I'm afraid that the Queen will..."
"I will take care of the queen's side, so you can go and investigate without any worries."
Luo Lun was overjoyed. He accepted the order and left in a hurry. The emperor took the secret letter he handed over and sneered a few times. If the ministers below wanted to fight, let them fight.
"Send this secret letter to that boy Nangong Jianyu. Judging by the time, that boy should have arrived. Send someone to watch under the city gate. When Nangong Jianyu arrives, bring him to see me."
The emperor handed the secret letter to Eunuch Wei, and also told Eunuch Wei to pay attention to the arrival of Nangong Jianyu.
"Old slave, let's do it now."
Eunuch Wei left the palace and personally waited for Nangong Jianyu's arrival under the city gate. It was not until evening that he saw a group of carriages approaching the city gate. In front of the carriage was Qin Huan on horseback.
"Hey, General Qin, you are here now. Where is Nangong Jianyu? Let him go with me to face the saint."
When Eunuch Wei saw Qin Huan, he happily greeted him. As soon as he opened his mouth, he wanted to take Nangong Jianyu away, but the person who got off the carriage was Qing Swordsman.
"Why is it you? Where is that boy?"
Eunuch Wei was not surprised at all when he saw the Green Swordsman, as if the two had known each other for a long time. He pushed the Green Swordsman away and went to lift the carriage door curtain, but there was no one inside.
"Let me ask you, where is the man? Do you know that His Majesty is waiting for him."
Eunuch Wei stared at the Green Swordsman and asked loudly. Qin Huan turned his head to the side and did not look at the Green Swordsman. Anyway, he would blame the Green Swordsman if something happened.
"Don't be anxious. I'm fine. I'll be here tomorrow."
The Green Swordsman was very polite to Eunuch Wei. He whispered in Eunuch Wei's ear, and then told him about the attack on the road. Eunuch Wei frowned after hearing this. He really didn't expect that Luo Lun would dare to rob and kill him on the road.
Nangong Jianyu.
"Don't tell me about this. Go and tell His Majesty yourself. It's useless to talk to me."
After Eunuch Wei finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the green swordsman accompanied him into the palace. The green swordsman carefully followed Eunuch Wei along the way, not daring to speak.
"Beautiful, please greet your Majesty."
In front of the emperor, the green swordsman knelt on one knee. He lowered his head and did not dare to look at the emperor. When he was living on the street, it was Eunuch Wei who rescued him and sent him to practice martial arts. Later, it was Eunuch Wei who recommended him to become the emperor's sidekick.
A sharp sword.
"Get up, I asked you to protect that kid, why did you protect everyone from me?"
The emperor pointed at the green swordsman and asked loudly. The green swordsman told the emperor the whereabouts of Nangong Jianyu, but he didn't even have a trace of anger about Luo Lun's robbery and murder of Nangong Jianyu.
"Meili, I want you to appear in front of Luo Lun tomorrow. Also, let him know that Nangong Jianyu will arrive in Qiyang City tomorrow. It is best to let Luo Lun go find Nangong Jianyu."
Since Nangong Jianyu hadn't come yet, the emperor thought of changing the method. Originally, he planned to give Luo Lun's secret letter to Nangong Jianyu. He wanted to see how Nangong Jianyu would do it, but now he changed his mind.
"Your Majesty, isn't Nangong Jianyu in danger?"
"Didn't you say that he is protected by experts? Since there is someone protecting him, nothing big will happen. You are watching in secret, and you will take action when it's time to take action."
The emperor then explained some things to the green swordsman. After the green swordsman left, the emperor showed a playful smile.
"Aren't you afraid that boy will get impatient and kill your prime minister? I tell you, that boy will definitely do it."
Behind the emperor, Ji Sisi walked out while talking. She knew Nangong Jianyu's temper very well. He wanted to kill someone, no matter what his identity was.
"If Luo Lun is killed so easily, then Luo Lun, the prime minister, is no good. For so many years, I have been unable to figure out Luo Lun. Let Nangong Jianyu figure it out for me this time."
The emperor looked at Ji Sisi proudly, and the two looked at each other and smiled. He knew that his sister also liked Nangong Jianyu very much and often praised Nangong Jianyu in front of him.
"That girl Caiyun is not young anymore. I think she acts like a wild girl all day long. Is it time to find her a husband? I wonder if my sister has a suitable candidate in mind. I can give Caiyun a marriage."
The emperor suddenly mentioned Ji Caiyun's marriage. This was not because he wanted to mention it, but mainly because Ji Caiyun always caused trouble in the palace. As an uncle, he also had a headache, so he thought about marrying this wild girl as soon as possible.
"What? Do you think Caiyun caused trouble for you?"
Ji Sisi looked at the emperor. She saw through the emperor's little thoughts at a glance. Knowing that Ji Sisi had seen through his own thoughts, the emperor could only smile awkwardly.
"How can I dislike her? I am her uncle. I have liked this girl since she was a child. What I mean is that as an uncle, I have to look after her."
At this time, the emperor stopped talking about me, and instead called himself "me". The two of them hadn't talked so easily for a long time. It reminded him that when he was a child, every time he was bullied by other princes, it was his sister who stood in his way.
