Chapter 287 Bao Xia (first update)
Yu Shian’s calm mood fluctuated again. He said excitedly:
“Yuan Niang is not yet eight years old. I do these things and say wait After he ascended the throne, he gave me a healthy Yuan Niang. I, I don’t know how Yuan Niang is doing now!”
“You don’t know where Prince Cheng is now?”
“I don’t know! ”
"He only asked you to delay time. Instead of Su Chang, he didn't ask you to do anything else? How could he give you orders?"
"I received a letter when I first arrived in Yang'an County. Later, The soldier next to me is the one who went into the cave with us. He is Prince Cheng, and he is the one who sends messages to me if anything happens. "
Song Gu said 'Oh' and said, "So. You sent out all the real soldiers, but left that person alone with you."
Yu Shi'an sighed and said:
"I did have something on my mind that night. It must be dangerous, and I would look for an opportunity to kill that soldier, but... that soldier protected my life several times when we were in the Taoist temple, but when we got to the cave, I couldn't do it. "
"When was the last time you saw Prince Cheng?" Wu Chen asked.
“After the Five Colored Jade Case was reported to Kyoto, he ordered someone to secretly send me a message to see him. I went, and he confided in me, saying that Emperor Zhongzong was going to pass the throne to him. Yes, but the late emperor used destructive methods to force Zhongzong to pass the throne to the late emperor. Zhongzong figured it out before he died, but he also knew that nothing could be changed, so he Leave a legacy to Prince Cheng. If the late emperor or his descendants are found to have misbehaved, the throne can be deposed immediately..."
"Have you ever seen this legacy?"
< br>Yu Shi'an shook his head and said:
"Since ancient times, the struggle for the throne has always been based on this rhetoric, whether it is the former emperor or the officials, at least I have not I feel there is something wrong. I just care about Yuanniang. Prince Cheng said that if he had never told me about this matter, he would let Yuanniang go with me immediately. But I already know about this, so I can't let Yuanniang go. Mom, he also said that this is not for himself, there are many people following him, if he lets me go, the lives of these people will be in my hands, he can't do this What to do, I told him to kill me and let Yuan Niang go. He said, "How difficult is it for you to get the position of deputy minister of the Privy Council?" I asked him what exactly he wanted from me. He said pleasantly that he would not let me kill anyone or raise an army, but he would just get the opportunity to go to Yang'an County and keep an eye on the people investigating the case."
Wu Chen frowned and asked, "But then he arranged a task for you."
"Yes, in fact, in the final analysis, he didn't expect that you would really investigate Lao Jieshan so clearly. Since you started investigating the case, all his plans have changed. He had to use me as a last resort. He knew that there were some things that I would not do even if he killed me. This angered me and made me react. It’s not good for him.”
Wu Chen pointed to the table of food in front of him and asked, “Is this table of food poisonous?”
“No! I've done you wrong."
"Then why did you come back so late? Wasn't it because you were waiting for Song Tixing and me to eat poisonous food?"
"If it was poisonous, why would I come here? I don't need to know anything from you. I came later because I really couldn't continue the performance and was worried about Yuan Niang's safety, so I rode alone. Walked around the street a few times.”
“You sometimes make mistakes!”
The voice of the sophomore came from the roof, and after a while, the sophomore and Xu Da opened the door and came in. .
Wu Chen scratched his forehead in embarrassment and said: "Quick, sit down, let's eat together! Let Uncle Qin add two pairs of bowls and chopsticks. Stop drinking the wine now. When Yuan Niang is rescued, you Treat us to a drink again!”
Yu Shian couldn’t understand, and asked in shock: “What do you mean?”
"What do you mean by this? I protect you!" The sophomore sat down, grabbed a piece of meat with his hands and put it into his mouth.
“Yes, where are the officials...”
Wu Chen waved his hand and said:
“You are different from Chen Zhong. Chen Zhong has followed Prince Cheng for many years, regardless of the reason. You are just temporarily captured and used, as long as you are willing As a deputy to the Privy Council, I guarantee that nothing will happen to you! If the officials insist on doing anything, I will rescue you and we will find a place with beautiful scenery..."
"Don't let me farm at any time. ." Datou yawned and walked from the back room to the table and sat down.
Wu Chen was stunned and asked: "Why did you come to me if you weren't resting in your own yard?"
Big Tou picked up the chopsticks and said: "I thought you would definitely want to eat when you came back, so I came here." You were waiting in the room, but you fell asleep while waiting.”
The second year of high school students looked at Wu Chen in surprise and asked, "You don't know there is a person lying in your room?"
Wu Chen shook his head and said, "I really didn't pay attention."
Xu Da said:
"The two of us first went to Datou's house and found no one. We were really shocked. We thought we were a step too late. When we found you, we found Datou lying there sleeping soundly. Then we felt relieved. Just now We both heard what you said, Deputy Ambassador Yu I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my position, alas."
Yu Shi'an lowered his head and said, "As long as Yuan Niang can be rescued, I can do whatever the officials want."
"Eat first, no. Speaking of which, is Uncle Qin yours?" Wu Chen asked.
Yu Shi'an said: "Of the people I brought here, only Uncle Qin is mine, the others are all people who were waiting at my house when I got back last night."
"You guys Eat first, I’ll go take a look.”
After Wu Chen finished speaking, he left the room.
Song Gu patted Yu Shian on the shoulder and said, "It's been difficult for you during this period. To be honest, I didn't notice it at all."
The sophomore year of high school had a mouth full of food and chewed hard. He chewed and swallowed and said: "It's not that there are no flaws, it's that we have no suspicion about Deputy Ambassador Yu."
Yu Shi'an smiled bitterly and said: "Sometimes As you talk, you forget that you still have such an identity. When you think about it, you feel uncomfortable."
Xu Da said: "In fact, Deputy Ambassador Yu should have talked to Brother Wu a long time ago. Talk about it, the sooner you tell it, the easier it will be. Now that many things have been found out, even Chen Zhong has been found out, some things will be much more difficult to deal with. "
"I know, I've thought about it along the way, but how can it be so easy to talk about this? And Wu Chen doesn't even have much time to eat and sleep. I..."
"It's useless to talk about it now. "The sophomore waved his hand: "Since Brother Wu said it's okay, it means it's okay. Hurry up and eat..."
"I haven't asked yet, why did you two come to Datou?" Song Gu asked, holding up his chopsticks. .
Xu laughed and said:
“Brother Wu knew that Deputy Commander Yu could not help himself, but the house was full of Deputy Commander Yu’s people, and they were afraid that tonight would be bad for Datou, he said These people in the yard don't know how to set up defenses tonight. After all, they haven't broken through yet. We can still find a chance to come in and protect the big head. I knew by looking at him that he planned to talk to Deputy Ambassador Yu tonight. ”
"That means the officials don't know yet?" Song Gu asked. (End of this chapter)
