Chapter 771
Seeing him deep in thought, Cao Jing felt somewhat comforted. Now that Zhao Lun was among the civil servants, after experiencing the unpredictable nature of people's hearts, he now behaved more tactfully than before: "Your Highness, this matter is the responsibility of Mr. Qin to the fourth prince."
Learn about it everywhere.”
Zhao Lun was stunned. He didn't expect the profound meaning of these words for a while. Cao Jing sighed in his heart. Just now he felt that the fifth prince had improved, but it didn't seem obvious, so he had to remind him: "The fourth prince is in Yiting Academy and rarely interacts with him."
Dealing with outside."
"If even he knows the news that Her Royal Highness the Princess is still alive, it shows that the time and scope of the spread of this rumor are wider than imagined. This is what Young Master Qin cares about." Cao Jing said: "The news that Her Royal Highness the Princess has received will definitely
Will check it out."
"Your Highness, please be careful recently to prevent someone from deliberately snooping on you and being deceived."
As soon as Cao Jing finished speaking, Zhao Lun turned pale, and after a pause he said calmly: "I have been drinking with my colleagues recently. Someone indeed asked me about my sister and asked why she wanted to find my life experience for me.
Evidence, and I recognize my ancestors and return to my ancestors."
Zhao Lun was so drunk at the time that he almost forgot about it. Cao Jing's reminder made him feel like he was struck by lightning!
Cao Jing's face was slightly stiff. He glanced at an old man and a woman not far away and whispered: "Your Highness must be tired. Go ahead and change your clothes and drink ginseng tea before talking. We will go and prepare now."
Lin Xian was a person with sharp ears and eyes, and Cao Jing was not on guard against them. He had already listened to Zhao Lun's words, and for a moment he felt a little resentful: "If you are so defenseless, what should you do?!"
Seeing him stomping his feet angrily, the female official Meng beside him was just glad that Zhao Lun had gone far and did not notice his kindness. She said calmly: "This is the reason why Your Highness brought us to the Fifth Prince's Mansion. If the Fifth Prince can succeed,
Why bother using us for such a big thing?"
Lin Xian snorted from his nostrils: "There are rumors flying all over the world, involving Her Royal Highness the Princess. What will happen if we don't find out? This matter is unusual. It seems that our fifth prince has been tricked by others?"
This was exactly the truth they wanted to explore. When Zhao Lun changed his clothes and came out, he met four pairs of eyes that wanted to get to the bottom of it.
Zhao Lun drank cold water and had a clear mind. After sitting down, he said: "Now that I think about it, someone should be trying to fish in troubled waters. I just thought about it carefully and found that there are two people who are suspicious. One is named Luo Jin, who has the same position as me, and the other is named Luo Jin.
Shen Yun."
"Chen Yun comes from a poor family and has little foundation in his family. Both of them once asked me about my sister, and Luo Jin tried to get me drunk several times just because I had the inner strength to get close to him. Although he would not refuse anyone who came, he
They all used internal affairs to force the wine out, but did not actually drink it."
Lin Xian's face finally looks better, he's not too stupid! He's just a little less thoughtful!
"After the two of them inquired about it and there was no movement, I thought it was just ordinary curiosity." Zhao Lun clenched his fists: "If this matter affects my sister, I will arrest them both and ask them to find out!"
Ms. Meng took a breath and reminded: "Your Highness has no evidence, why would you arrest someone and rely on your status as a prince? With such a guilty conscience, you are playing into the hands of those who are watching. Your Highness, Your Highness the Princess invites us.
Just to bind you."
Zhao Lun couldn't help but feel frustrated. He knew that Qin Feng had always looked down on him, thinking that he was brave and foolhardy, but the facts made him realize time and time again that he was indeed not as smart as his sister. He was obviously born from the same mother, but it was a natural difference.
Different places.
"I was careless." Zhao Lun still respected the two former ministers: "From your perspective, what should I do next?"
"If the fourth prince hadn't exposed this matter, it would have been hidden. It's really dangerous. But fortunately, it started. It was Her Highness the Princess who took action to find out the source of this rumor. Her Highness is on duty as usual. If someone comes to inquire, it will be like that just now. Just remember the taboo."
"As for the relationship with His Highness, according to His Majesty's previous words, who dares to discuss the Emperor's words?" Meng Meng said unhurriedly: "Being immobile in response to all movements is better than anything else."
This is a critical moment. We must not hold back Mr. Qin. This is what Lady Meng did not dare to say.
After being in the house for so long, she could also tell that Zhao Lun was slightly jealous of Qin Feng. It was normal for a younger brother to dislike his brother-in-law, but a younger brother-in-law didn't want to spoil his brother-in-law. , what a pair of living treasures.
Zhao Lun didn't sleep well that night, lying on the couch and tossing and turning. Sometimes he thought of the hard days he endured in Beiguan, and sometimes he thought of the time when he and his sister depended on each other after his mother disappeared, and how his sister was sent away by his uncle later. Alone.
His uncle instilled many thoughts into him, most of which were hatred towards Emperor Yuan. Coupled with the things he had experienced personally, and seeing the uncles and aunts who escorted them die tragically with his own eyes, there was an empty place in his heart.
After meeting Emperor Yuan, there was no excitement about seeing his father, only hatred surged. It was not that he had never thought about killing his own father, but his sister saw it. She stopped him and told him that there was nothing better than taking it away. The Xiao family's empire made Emperor Yuan even more miserable.
What's more, it wasn't just Emperor Yuan who wanted to kill them back then, there were also many people involved.
Zhao Lun suddenly opened his eyes, sat up quickly, stretched out his arms like an ape and hooked the neck of the person beside the couch, but the person easily avoided his blow and whispered: "It's me."
It was a familiar voice, and Zhao Lun shouted hurriedly: "Sister, why are you here?"
"If it weren't for me, how could I let Cao Jing let me into the mansion?" The medicine that changes the voice will lose its effect at night. She also took advantage of this opportunity to enter the Fifth Prince's Mansion. She had just met Cao Jing and went to see him. The Duke of Lin and the female official Meng.
Zhao Lun felt a little sour in his heart. He could count the number of times his sister had been to the Fifth Prince's Mansion with just one slap. She had not been there since she had taken care of the flowers and plants in the mansion. However, he heard that she was now a partner of Kunpeng Trading Company and was working with Qin. The wind can move in and out at the same time.
"Sister, have you ever thought of me?" Zhao Lun couldn't help but complain, which made Xiao Lingyao think of them when they were children.
Zhao Lun has relied on her since he was a child. They say that an elder sister is like a mother. But after her mother left, she also entered the palace. Her uncle instilled some bad ideas into Zhao Lun, and it took her a lot of effort to correct them. Come here, but this awkward temperament has been developed.
"Put this thing away. You should need it in the future." Xiao Lingyao stuffed something into his hand.
Zhao Lun never lit a lamp when sleeping at night. He could only feel the shape of the thing in his hand. He was excited and immediately lit the oil lamp. When he saw it again, it was a half-face talisman. He couldn't help but swallow his saliva: "This is it?"
