Nian Huajiao: The cold-faced treacherous minister spoiled her unconditionally after breaking his vow

"Why not? If it weren't for the mighty Prince Jing, how could the Northern Rong barbarians submit to the Great Yong and sign a contract that the two sides would not fight for twenty years?"

After hearing this, the other people also became much more sober.

Someone advised: "If you know it, how can we not know it? Brother Ren, don't forget how Prince Jing died. Trouble comes from the mouth..."

At that time, she seemed to understand what was said, so she also wanted to find out what was going on.

She stood behind a pillar and looked out.

But the person who spoke last stretched out his finger and pointed to the sky.

Everyone shut up immediately and dared not talk anymore.

Even the man who was so proud just now blocked his mouth with wine.

She didn't understand at the time.

How come the conversation between these people also involved something related to the sky?

Now that I think about it, that person must be referring to the current emperor.

Therefore, Emperor Zhaoding was worried that Prince Jing would become too successful and would be discarded after peace was restored in Dayong.

This is this...

She seemed to have discovered Lu Jinan's secret.

How to do?

You won't be silenced, right?

She suddenly realized that knowing too much would really put her life in danger.

Come to think of it, no one knew that she had already died once.

As long as she doesn't say it, no one will know.

"Sister Luo, do you know Master Wuyan?" Xie Qing turned around and asked.

Jiang Luo looked at her and nodded: "I have only heard of his name, but have never seen him in person."

"Master Wuyan is the most powerful monk in Zhenguo Temple. I heard that he knows everything about astronomy and geography, and is also very good at predicting marriages." Xie Qing was excited when she mentioned Master Wuyan.

"Really so smart?"

Xie Qing nodded her head as she heard this: "It works. Young ladies and ladies in Yongjing City go to Zhenguo Temple to pray when they have nothing to do. When we are free, why don't we go and pray as well?"

"Okay." Jiang Luo said with a smile.

"By the way, aunt, I asked my cousin to find a rare copy of a book from the previous dynasty for me a few days ago. I wonder if he has found it?" Xie Qing looked at Princess Jing with anticipation.

"He hasn't been back for a long time. If you find him, he is probably in the mansion in Yongping Lane. You might as well go there and look for him." Princess Jing put down the teacup in her hand and said angrily.

Seeing that she was angry, Xie Qing rolled her eyes around and hurriedly coaxed her, "Okay then, I'll accompany my aunt for lunch and then go to the Lu Mansion to look for it. A rare copy is not as important as your aunt!" Upon hearing this, Princess Jing glared at Xie Qing in reproach.

Jiang Luo sat there, looking at the warm scene of the aunt and niece getting along with each other, feeling a little envious.

The two of them chatted with Princess Jing again...

And Lu Jinan was indeed at the Zhenguo Temple just as Princess Jing had said.

In Zhenguo Temple, there is a most remote courtyard leaning against the back mountain, and the interior is no different from an ordinary courtyard.

It's just that there is one more century-old banyan tree.

At this time, there were two people under the tree. From a distance, one was black and the other was white, sitting cross-legged.

Just like chess pieces in the hands of two people.

"Lord Lu's chess game is still unstoppable. Amitabha, I lost." Master Wuyan, who was dressed in gray and white monk's robes, looked at the man in black clothes in front of him who was extremely cold and stern, and said with his hands clasped together.

Lu Jinan put down the black piece in his hand, raised his cold eyes slightly, and said with a sense of superiority: "Master, I appreciate your concession."

"You're in a hurry to get me out, but is there something wrong?"

He worked for Prince Jing a few years ago.

Now, he is working for Prince Jing again.

I couldn't help but think in my heart: He is going down this path to the end.

But it doesn't matter. He and Prince Jing are good brothers in private, and this path is his own choice. He has many important people to protect, so he is not afraid.

"I wonder if Master has been able to refine more effective elixirs in the past three years?" Lu Jinan asked, looking at the person in front of him.

“There are some breakthroughs.”

"That's good. Master, it's time for you to go to the palace to offer medicine. Otherwise, that person will be uneasy." Lu Jinan stood up and murmured as he looked at the lush banyan tree.

Emperor Zhaoding had only one young son, the eldest prince Fu Zhen, born to Concubine Hui, who was only five years old.

In order to have more princes and consolidate his rule, Emperor Zhaoding put a lot of thought into it.

But it's still useless.

In recent years, batches of beautiful girls have entered the palace, but none of them has been able to give birth to a princess, let alone a prince.

The court officials also became anxious.

Of course, the plan to select concubines from the palace was proposed publicly by Lu Jinan.

Emperor Zhaoding also adopted it.

Later, Emperor Zhaoding saw that this did not work, and heard that Master Wuyan of Zhenguo Temple was good at making elixirs. He summoned Wuyan into the palace and secretly ordered him to make elixirs for him to strengthen his body.

Later, somehow the news got out. Combined with the previous incident of selecting extra concubines, Lu Jinan was scolded by the court officials.

Some called him a traitor, some called him a disruptor of the government, and some called him a man with wolfish ambitions.

He has all the reputations.

The Yong Dynasty had become increasingly stable and prosperous in recent years, and Emperor Zhaoding was no longer satisfied with the elixirs that could strengthen his body.

He wanted immortality more and more.

In this way, even if he has no useful son, his empire will not fall.

The throne will never be replaced.

"What's the news from the palace?" Master Wuyan asked in a low voice.

Lu Jinan nodded imperceptibly.

"When will you enter the palace?" Wuyan asked again.

"The sooner the better."

"Amitabha, then let's do it tomorrow."

Lu Jinan lowered his head and bowed to Master Wuyan as a junior: "Okay, I'll take my leave." Then he turned and walked out of the courtyard.

After he left, Master Wuyan sat cross-legged under the banyan tree and looked at his tall figure. The emotions in his eyes were very complicated, which was more complicated than ever before...

Prince Jing's Mansion.

The two of them had lunch with Princess Jing and drank a cup of tea before sending Princess Jing back to Jingyin Pavilion to rest.

Xie Qing then took Jiang Luo to the side room. This was the side room that her aunt prepared for her every time she came to Prince Jing's Mansion. It was right next to the Quiet Pavilion.

The two of them rested together for half an hour before saying goodbye and leaving for Lu's residence.

Jiang Luo originally declined. Although Princess Jing was very close to her, she was not very familiar with her temperament and did not dare to act rashly.

Today was also her first time coming to Prince Jing's Mansion. If it weren't for Xie Qing, she would definitely not have eaten in the palace.

But Xie Qing insisted that she go with him, and Princess Jing didn't say anything. Seeing that she couldn't refuse, and not wanting to spoil Xie Qing's interest, she agreed.

The two of them got on the Xie Mansion's carriage and headed towards Yongping Lane.

When they arrived at Lu's Mansion, they got off the carriage and were welcomed in by Xu Da at the door.

Jiang Luo thought to himself: It seems that Xie Qing comes here often.

Xu Da looked at Jiang Luo and felt that he looked familiar.

It seemed to be the young lady who came to see Mr. Wu San a few days ago.

He then bowed and said, "Meet the two ladies."

Jiang Luo avoided his greeting and said, "Manager Xu, there's no need to be so polite."

Xie Qing raised her hand and continued to walk into the yard: "Uncle Xu, please don't be polite to us."

Xu Da hurriedly caught up with the two and said, "Miss Xie, you haven't been here for a while."

Xie Qing smiled with eyes curved, and said as she walked: "Yes, I was worried that Uncle Xu would forget about me!"
