Chapter 2424 The girls meet
At that moment, Kinderman was like a tame little beast encountering a natural enemy, and the hairs all over his body seemed to stand on end...
Who is this? !
Seeing Kinderman's expression as if facing a formidable enemy, the woman took two steps forward, gathered her train and saluted, and said in a soft and charming voice: "I am Wu Mei Niang, and I have met Her Highness the Princess."
Kinderman breathed out softly. She had naturally heard of Wu Meiniang's name and knew that although this woman was a concubine, she was also from a famous family. She was now in charge of all of Fang Jun's properties and had no say in the Fang family. Under Princess Gaoyang.
Not daring to show off, she gathered her skirts and returned the courtesy, saying softly: "How dare my subordinates still regard themselves as princesses? Madam Wu must not be too polite. She should be more intimate with her in the future."
She had to lower her body because she was too afraid of Wu Meiniang.
It has been a while since I came to Chang'an, and I often have banquets with wealthy ladies in Chang'an City. Kinderman has heard too many rumors about this woman.
She recommended herself to the palace at a young age, gave up her status as the legitimate daughter of a wealthy family and became a palace maid, and then was given Fang Jun as his concubine by the emperor...
This person does not have the status of a princess, but she can still gain Fang Jun's unreserved favor and manage Fang Jun's extremely wealthy industry in an orderly manner. Many wealthy businessmen and dignitaries bow to her in front of her. Her methods are really powerful. .
How dare Kinderman look down upon such a person?
As for the ladies who often openly or secretly instigated her to compete with the warrior lady for Fang Jun's favor in her ears, Kinderman just wanted to laugh and didn't bother to pay attention.
Seeing Kinderman's kind attitude and sincere words, Wu Meiniang smiled slightly and said softly: "What the princess said is that she will be her sister from now on. I hope the princess will take care of her and take care of her."
Kinderman thought to himself: How can I dare to take care of you?
As long as you don't look for trouble with me, thank God...
He immediately stepped forward, took Wu Meiniang's hand affectionately, and said with a smile: "I haven't left the country yet, and my sister's words make me feel ashamed... Let's go and visit Fang Shaobao together, so that my sister won't worry." br>
The corners of Wu Meiniang's mouth twitched.
elder sister?
You can really shout... It seems that this Silla princess is not just as pure as a white lotus as she appears on the surface.
At least he is thick-skinned and cheerful...
The two of them entered the inner hall hand in hand, and saw Princess Gaoyang sitting on the edge of the building, holding Fang Jun's hand tightly, crying profusely, and said with sobs: "Tell me, as an important minister of the imperial court, Who has offended so many people like you? You can be assassinated in the blink of an eye. How can we sisters survive if the error is even an inch or two?”
Fang Jun looked helpless, stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears on her tender face, and said comfortingly: "Isn't it okay? This arrow wound seems serious, but in fact, even if it's a little off, it's not a big deal. It’s just a pity for Brother Zhuzi...”
Thinking of the soldiers who died trying to save him, he looked sad and sighed.
These soldiers followed him in the south and north, and conquered the world. Instead of dying on the bloody battlefield, they died in Chang'an City. It has to be said that it is a pity.
Seeing Kinderman and Wu Meiniang walking in hand in hand, I was a little surprised. How come these two people have such a good relationship?
However, he didn't care. He knew very well about Wu Meiniang's methods.
As long as she wants to make friends, there will be no one who does not treat her as a rebel; but of those she wants to teach, few will be able to do so safely...
"The future generations of Zhuzi must be properly arranged. He died for me, and the compensation must not be frivolous."
"Don't worry, sir, I've already made arrangements for my concubine." Wu Meiniang let go of Kinderman's hand, took two steps forward, looked at Fang Jun's injuries with concern, and said softly: "Zhu Zhu's funeral arrangements are already being taken care of. If the wife wants to remarry, her family will give her a dowry and will not stop her. His son is now studying in a school and will be sent to the army for training and training. If he is promising, he will be supported. If he has ordinary qualifications, he can also return to the army. As a general in the family, everyone will be prosperous.”
After all, Wu Meiniang was extraordinary. Although she felt extremely distressed, she still controlled her emotions and handled everything properly without Fang Jun having to worry about her.
Feeling relieved, Fang Jun patted her hand and said softly: "With Mei Niang here, what else do you have to worry about? By the way, how is Shu'er doing?"
Wu Meiniang smiled softly and said: "Shu'er is pregnant, so Your Highness and I did not ask her to come with us. Her mother has gone to her to take care of her, and the husband is only injured. Shu'er is worried for a moment. But she is soft on the outside and strong on the inside. She knows the severity and will be fine.”
Fang Jun was completely reassured, nodded and said, "That's good. Is there any news from Gao Kan?"
Wu Meiniang nodded and said: "We have found the crossbow and set it up in the Qiu family's ancestral house. When Gao Kan arrived, he had a conflict with Chai Zhewei. The thief took the opportunity to dismantle the crossbow and discarded the parts in the pond in the backyard of the Qiu family's ancestral house. , now Gao Kan is already leading the effort to salvage.”
"Qiu Xinggong?"
Fang Jun thought about it, and it was not unreasonable if Qiu Xinggong assassinated him, "But why did he conflict with Chai Zhewei? How dare Chai Zhewei protect Qiu Xinggong in this matter?"
Wu Meiniang explained: "Chai Zhewei may not have known about Lang Jun's assassination. His reason for protecting Qiu Xinggong was not sufficient. Gao Kan found many coin-making molds in the Qiu family's ancestral residence. Perhaps, Qiu Xinggong's private coin-casting, Chai Zhewei was involved, but Qiu Xinggong took it upon himself. His Majesty has now ordered Zhao Guogong to take charge and merge the two cases and try them together with the three judicial departments. "
"Qiu Xinggong minted coins privately?"
At this time, Fang Jun was really shocked.
The private coining of coins has been a capital offense in all dynasties. No matter how meritorious or noble a minister is, he has never had his family destroyed.
Unless he intends to usurp the throne, no matter how greedy he is for money, he will not do such stupid things as destroying his family at every turn.
Qiu Xinggong himself was not qualified to usurp the throne. Even if all the Li and Tang royal families were slaughtered, he would not be able to become emperor. So it is obvious that there must be someone behind this matter, and the person in charge must be someone qualified to overthrow Li Tang. The person who can ascend the throne after His Majesty the Second.
However, the focus at the moment is not who the mastermind behind the scenes is, or even who the mastermind behind his assassination has to be put aside, because His Majesty Li Er actually put Changsun Wuji in charge of the case...
What kind of character does Changsun Wuji have?
This person smiles like a Maitreya Buddha in front of his face, but behind his back he is full of conspiracies, and the most important thing is that he is ruthless and does not recognize his relatives.
Nowadays, the Guanlong nobles have been suppressed by His Majesty Li Er and are miserable. Their voice in the DPRK has been reduced again and again, and they are no longer worthy of the title of "Guanlong nobles". Now His Majesty Li Er has let Changsun Wuji After investigating the case, everyone knows that Changsun Wuji will definitely take this opportunity to cause trouble, eliminate dissidents and attack political opponents.
A foreseeable storm is about to sweep through the court, and it is unknown how many people will be involved. At this time when the Eastern Expedition is about to begin, maintaining the stability of the court is the top priority.
First, Li Yuanjing was placed in the position of military minister, and now Changsun Wuji was asked to investigate the case...
What did His Majesty Li Er think?
Fang Jun couldn't figure out what His Majesty Li Er was thinking, and suddenly felt a splitting headache.
It is said that accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger. This does not mean that the king is as powerful as a tiger, but that the king's mind is different from that of ordinary people. It is as unpredictable as a tiger, and one cannot guess his happiness and anger... one moment he is as docile as a cat. , and at the next moment, it may open its big mouth and show its sharp teeth, and swallow you whole with your skin and flesh.
On the other side, Jin Shengman and his sister looked at each other, both a little shocked.
Even though she had heard countless rumors and already knew Wu Meiniang's status in the Fang family, even Fang Xuanling treated her with utmost courtesy and never regarded her as a concubine. However, she saw that Wu Meiniang handled almost all official matters in front of her. , answered, and as the head wife, Princess Gaoyang looked like she was taking it for granted, which was still a bit unbelievable.
Of course, as an imperial princess and being so favored by Fang Jun, Princess Gaoyang's status is unquestionable and no one can shake it, but shouldn't the power to deal with all things in the family be tightly held in her hands?
Even if Wu Meiniang could never pose a threat to her status, who could be so cynical as to hand over the power they deserve to others?
This Wu Meiniang is really amazing...(End of Chapter)
