"Mother, you?" Cheng Yu looked at his mother Han Ji in shock. He did not expect that the person who betrayed him in the end was his mother.
"Cheng Yu, you did something wrong in this matter. You should not plot against your brother Wang." Han Ji said, ignoring Cheng Yu's shock and anger.
"Han Ji, what on earth is going on?" Queen Mother Xia said angrily.
Her anger was not because Cheng Yu had plotted against Ying Zheng and spread the secret of Xianyang Palace, but because of Cheng Yu's stupidity.
What would they do if they spread the secret about Xianyang Palace? Apart from exposing the fact that they have their own people in Xianyang Palace, what else can they gain?
Although Ying Zheng is not very old, he is not too young when it comes to matters between men and women. Isn’t it time for Chenglong to get married?
If the identity of Queen Qin hadn't been so important, and that hateful woman Queen Mother Huayang insisted on pushing her natal family into that position, Ying Zheng's marriage might have been arranged long ago.
In addition to bringing some unhappiness to Ying Zheng by spreading those things, Ying Zheng has nothing to lose and may even gain more.
If Ying Zheng was alerted because of those rumors, then in the eyes of Queen Mother Xia, it would be more gain than loss. Ying Zheng, who is addicted to women, would be better for them.
From the Empress Dowager Xia's point of view, what Cheng Yu did was an act of sacrificing herself to save Ying Zheng. This made her not angry, but more disappointed.
Cheng Xi really disappointed her. She once had high hopes for Cheng Xi, and even now, those high hopes have not diminished.
However, the higher her high expectations, the greater her disappointment now.
"This matter is my fault. The Queen Mother told me about that matter that day. After returning to the palace, I accidentally let it slip, so that Cheng Yu knew about it, and that's what happened now." Han Ji blamed herself.
road.
Cheng Xiu learned about the incident from her, but her original intention was to warn Cheng Xiu that even if they got married, they could not learn from Ying Zheng. Who would have thought that Cheng Xiu would do such a stupid thing?
.
"Mother, you?" Cheng Yu was very angry at this time, staring at his mother. He was hurt, and his heart was hurt.
"Cheng Xi, you were wrong in this matter." Han Ji ignored Cheng Xi's anger and said.
"Mother·····"
Cheng Yu still wanted to argue, but Queen Mother Xia, a grandmother whom he did not dare and could not resist, spoke up, "Cheng Yu, for the next three months, you can work on your marriage with peace of mind. Before the first child is born,
Just don’t leave the house.”
"Grandma?" Cheng Yu's heart couldn't help but feel cold.
He worked hard to get engaged to the daughter of the Bai family, and thought of using this opportunity to develop his strength in the military with the help of the Bai family's connections. How could he be willing to live in seclusion in his mansion and be a human-creating machine from now on.
Womanizing? Humph, womanizing doesn’t matter. His goal is the Qin Kingdom.
It’s just that the facts are in front of you...
Cheng Yu couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
Han Ji looked at her down-and-out son with a look of pity on her face, but she also thought that it would be a good thing if she could make Cheng Yu settle down. It seemed to be worth it. She was thinking a lot for a while, all kinds of things.
The taste is varied.
······
Xianyang Palace.
"Jing Salamander, you have become famous this time." Ying Zheng, who sent Zhao Ji away, teased Jing Salamander who had returned to his original appearance.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with this slave?" Jingyu, who was sorting out Ying Zheng's books, asked in surprise.
"There is a witch in Xianyang Palace." Ying Zheng said.
Frightened Salamander's lips parted slightly, unable to follow Ying Zheng's thoughts for a while.
"Now, almost everyone in Xianyang knows about it," Ying Zheng continued.
Only then did Jing Salamang realize what Ying Zheng was talking about.
After realizing this, Jing Salaman subconsciously avoided Ying Zheng's sight, feeling a little guilty and aggrieved.
I just can't say no.
However, Jingli's grievances are even more filled with guilt, because she knows that she actually likes that feeling a little bit, and likes the feeling that she can tolerate everything about Ying Zheng.
That feeling made her addicted, and she was more spiritually satisfied than materially happy.
"Xian Yang Palace has a lot of eyes." Just when Jing Salad didn't know how to answer, Ying Zheng's words helped to make things clearer.
"What is your Majesty saying?" Jing Salamander quickly took over Ying Zheng's words.
This is what she is good at. The previous topic really made her at a loss.
"Gu and your private affairs can be spread out, which shows that Xianyang Palace has other people's eyes." Ying Zheng said.
"Do you want me to kill them?" Jing Salamander said with a cold expression.
This kind of thing is what she is really good at.
"Jing Salamander, don't always think about killing people. You are no longer a killer." Ying Zheng said distressedly.
Jing Salamander's killer instinct is too strong. When can I train her into a qualified snare manager?
Ying Zheng only felt that he had a long way to go, but there was another thing. The progress of Jing Salamander could be described as rapid.
"What does the king want?" Jing Salamander hesitated.
"Be calm and look at who they are and who is behind them," Ying Zheng said.
"Then what?" Frightened Salamander asked.
"Then do nothing." Ying Zheng said.
"It's not bad at all. Since it's an eyeliner, it should be completely removed." Jing Salamander said softly, his voice gentle but unable to conceal his murderous intent.
"Although the eyes can see many things, they often create illusions. We must learn to control them so that they can be used by us unconsciously instead of destroyed." Ying Zheng transformed into the most patient teacher at this time.
, teach the frightened salamanders by words and deeds.
"The king means that by leaving these people behind, they can mislead the people behind them at the critical moment." Jing Salamander suddenly realized.
"Wouldn't this be better?" Ying Zheng said with a smile.
"However, there is still a problem. How can we ensure that we can control those informants?" Jingyu said the problem, which is also the most difficult part.
"It's very troublesome, so I have the opportunity now." Ying Zheng said.
"What if, even so, we still can't guarantee complete control?" Jing Salamander asked.
"Then we can only kill him," Ying Zheng said.
The expression on Jingli's face froze following Ying Zheng's words.
Kill. Isn’t this the same as what I said before?
Thinking of this, Jing Salamander couldn't help but look at Ying Zheng, and saw the undisguised joking in Ying Zheng's eyes. His face couldn't help but blush slightly, and then he felt a little happy again.
We will always be the same in many places. Jing Salamander said this in his heart.
"I'll leave this matter to you," Ying Zheng said.
The affairs of Xianyang Palace should be considered as training for Jing Salamander, and the next ones will be Xinzheng and Luo Sheng.
Of course, if Jingyu is really not up to the task, Ying Zheng will have no choice but to find someone else.
