Chapter 95 The only confidant

Many people have forgotten the name of King Ji.

The years that have been sealed in dust for eighteen years have long been submerged in the long river of time.

But Xie Ding will never forget it.

The connection between the clouds and the ground is so far away that the eight characters are hung in the hall of the palace. They were written by the old monarch himself. Xie Ding can see them every day when he comes in. How could he forget the name Yunji.

Now, King Ji is back!

The panic quickly turned into fear. Xie Ding knocked over the cup and fell to his knees with a thud.

"Grandpa Ji Wang! If you don't want to close your eyes, don't come to me. I, Xie Ding, am just a concierge, helping you take care of the servants in the palace. You and I have no grudges at all."

"If you, old man, can't stand the prince-in-law, go to the prince-in-law's house and strangle that bastard to death. I also wish that guy who brought disaster to the country and people would die soon. If you want revenge, you have to go to the palace to find the king. When the Yu family was wiped out, I was still a

My child, you don’t understand anything, just let me go.”

"I have received a lot of benefits from the Prince Consort's Mansion in the past few years, but I didn't know that the ecstasy they stored was Ecstasy. If I had known it was such a poison, I would not have agreed to anything. I don't want the money anymore. When the time comes, it will be all

Change it into paper money and burn it to His Highness King Ji."

Xie Ding was greatly frightened.

You must know that King Ji died a long time ago. To put it bluntly, Prince Ji's Mansion is a cemetery. What Xie Ding is looking at is not Prince Ji's Mansion, but King Ji's Tomb.

In the middle of the night, a young man came, spent a lot of money, and claimed to be the King of Extremes. Who wouldn't be frightened?

With a clang, a jade pendant fell in front of Xie Ding.

Xie Ding knew the goods well and saw at a glance that the jade pendant was extraordinary. He picked it up shivering and said to himself: "This is the Night Ming Jade. I have seen several princes wearing it..."

As he spoke, he turned his jade pendant to the bright moon, and the words "clouds and ground meet, extremely far away" immediately appeared in the jade.

Genuine!

Xie Ding did not dare to raise his head. He held the jade pendant in both hands and bowed his head and said: "I respectfully welcome King Ji back to his residence. Your Majesty will live a thousand years ago!"

After finishing speaking as usual, Xie Ding was stunned again.

If Ye Mingyu is real, doesn't it mean that King Ji is also real?

Not a ghost?

Xie Ding raised his head tremblingly, and saw the face of a harmless young man, but the smile at the corner of his mouth was very strange, like an old cat facing a mouse.

Xie Dingxin finished saying that King Ji might as well be a ghost. If he wasn't a ghost, he would be dead.

After taking back the Night Ming Jade, Yun Ji weighed it and said, "Xie Ding, right? You know clearly that the goods in the Prince Consort's Mansion are ecstasy smoke, but you still use the Prince's Mansion as a warehouse. You are quite courageous."

"Your Majesty, forgive me! The villain is forced to do nothing. I am a concierge. How dare I disobey the people of the Prince Consort's Mansion? I also want to refuse, but I dare not. The Prince has not returned from a long trip, and the villain has become a slave without an owner.

He will bully and bully everyone he sees."

Xie Dingting was good at talking, begging for mercy again and again, choosing nice words to say, as if he had been wronged a lot.

"Get up, because you dare to scold the prince-in-law, I will spare your life."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me!"

Xie Ding was covered in cold sweat. If a servant made a mistake in the palace of a royal relative, many people would be beheaded. He had seen it many times in the past few years, so he secretly said it was a good thing and then stood up.

Seeing that the prince's wine glass was empty, Xie Ding quickly poured wine and served him.

"Could it be that Your Majesty escaped the disaster back then? I'm afraid he must have suffered a lot these years while living abroad. I don't know what His Majesty's plans are when he comes back this time."

Xie Ding knew very well that King Ji had a special status. He was right to say that he was a prince. He was the fourth prince who was an upright person. However, King Ji also had an identity as a remnant of the Yu family. The old king had issued the order to kill him, but now King Ji is still alive.

, I wonder if the old king will kill this fourth son a second time.

Xie Ding wanted to find out how King Ji made a comeback, but he didn't take it seriously.

"I plan to buy some cows first." Yunji said while eating: "You go to buy them tomorrow. If you want a hundred cows, remember to pick the ones with long hair and strong bodies."

"Hey, I remembered it." Xie Ding was confused.

"By the way, don't tell anyone about my return. If you don't keep your mouth shut, you may not be able to save your head."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty! I won't tell you even if you kill me!" Xie Ding swore pointing to the sky.

Yunji threw out three thousand taels of silver notes and said: "The money you paid for buying cattle is yours."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xie Ding hurriedly took the bank note and hesitated: "Your Majesty, the three hundred taels before..."

"Thank you."

Xie Ding thanked him profusely and was elated. He finally realized the pride of those palace concierges and couldn't help but straighten his back.

"Your Majesty, what should I do with the goods in the yard? The prince is not easy to mess with. I think it is better to stay away from the edge for now. The old king has been lying in bed for many years. I am afraid that his end is coming. If the prince can fight for the position of prince, he will become a distinguished talent in the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

It’s good to deal with the prince-in-law.”

Xie Ding consciously regarded himself as King Ji's confidant and spoke completely from Yunji's point of view. Anyway, he was the only servant in the palace. If he was not a confidant, there would really be no one.

"Is the prince-in-law so difficult to deal with?"

"It's more than difficult! The prince-in-law is not alone. There is also a national master behind him. Together, these two people can shake the foundation of Jiyun. Even several princes are afraid of him. According to my estimation, the prime minister will track down the ecstasy smoke."

We should have some clues, but it was only because of the prince-in-law and the imperial master that we didn't take action."

"It seems that the prime minister is concerned about the country and the people, but it is difficult to gain the upper hand against a powerful figure."

"Prime Minister Wang Fu'an is indeed upright and has the talent to govern the country, but because a villain is in power, it is difficult to display his ambitions."

"Tell me about the princes."

Xie Ding's status is not high and he has many acquaintances in the Imperial City. He is somewhat familiar with all aspects of the Imperial City and he also has some understanding of the three princes.

From Xie Ding's mouth, Yun Chi learned more about the three princes.

The eldest prince Yuntian was mature and prudent, and won the support of civil servants. He was the most powerful candidate for the crown prince. However, he had a hobby and liked to go to the theater. He had a stage in the palace, and the gongs and singing continued all year round in the palace.

The second prince, Yun Hua, was good at winning over each other. He had friendships with various princes and was very close to the Imperial Preceptor. His emotions and anger were invisible and it was difficult to figure out his heart. The servants of Prince Xiang's Mansion were always on guard, fearing that they might cause trouble somewhere.

He killed his master and lost his life.

The third prince, Yun Guang, was not outstanding in both civil and military affairs, but he valued filial piety above all and was upright. He liked music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he had the best temper among the three princes. He once had a dispute with the consort over matters related to the princess's palace, but the matter was settled later.

, it is said that the prince-in-law did not continue to keep private concubines for a long time, but he lived in peace for a while.

"What is the background of the Imperial Master?"

Xie Ding's face turned bitter and he shook his head and said: "National Master Xie Changfeng is too mysterious. I have only seen him from a distance once. However, there are rumors that the National Master is related to the grassland barbarians. What is the connection?

.”

"Xie Changfeng..." Yun Ji knocked on the table leisurely and said lazily: "He may be related to the Yu family murder case back then. This account must be settled slowly and clearly."

"Settling the accounts? How will the prince settle the accounts?" Xie Ding began to worry.
