The Submissive Emperor

Chapter 23: Wind blows

The queen was a martial artist and got up early. When Lou Jing arrived at Fengyi Palace, the palace people led him directly into the garden.

There were no precious flowers and trees in the garden of Fengyi Palace, only large tracts of short grass and a few flowers and trees were planted. At this time, the sky was just getting bright, and a dark blue figure was dancing in the middle of the garden.

The swordsmanship was extremely delicate, and there was an unstoppable momentum between the ups and downs. It breaks through the sky like a young phoenix, light and tactfully; the sword light falls like frost and snow, and the chill is pressing. There is a saying, come like a thunder to take away the anger, let it be like a river of light!

The sword technique passed down by the Jingnan Hou Ji's family, Lou Jing was also able to see it for the first time, and could not help being photographed by the mystery in it.

Empress Ji turned his sword back and turned to look at the princess who was standing upright. Seeing that he was also holding a sword in his hand, her eyes flashed, "You are also good at swords?"

Lou Jing first stepped forward to salute the queen, and then smiled and said: "The child minister has no good weapons. This sword is used by the child minister to honor his father." He said like this, he held the Chixiao sword in his hand with both hands. superior.

"Oh?" Ji Zhuo looked at him. Raw material thought that the kid was trying to please him, and he took the sword to try his best. He didn't want to openly admit that he knew his preferences and gave the sword frankly. A glimpse of appreciation flashed in the queen's eyes, and the heir of Lou's family, as expected, was extremely thoughtful in doing things and behaving, which made it hard to be unhappy.

The Chixiao Sword is one of the more magnificent artifacts. The sheath is inlaid with colorful beads and the handle is inlaid with Jiuhua jade. Those who are good at swords love swords very much. Ji Zhuo took Chi Xiao in Lou Jing's hand and looked at it carefully from top to bottom, before he grasped the hilt of the sword and slowly pulled it out.

The blade is like frost, and the murderous aura is restrained. Although the scabbard of the sword is gorgeous, the sword body is very clean and simple. Pulling the sword out of its sheath suddenly, the Chixiao Sword "hum" let out a dragon chant, "Good sword!" Empress Ji couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

Lou Jing showed a soft smile like a refreshing breeze, and said warmly: "A sword is matched with a hero, and Chi Xiao is in the hands of his father.

"Hahaha," Ji Zhuo smiled heartily, and threw the sword he had just used to Lou Jing, "Come on, let this palace try this Chixiao."

"Yes!" Lou Jing specially wore a narrow-sleeved robe with wristbands today. He took off the wide-sleeved gauze and threw it to Le Xian.

The queen was also not polite with him, clasped her fists slightly, then rubbed her body and attacked.

The needle dropped in the hall is now audible, and Prince Xiao Chengjun is standing in the head of the civil servants, bowing his head and eyes without saying a word.

Someone has just been impeached, saying that the prince privately misappropriated the silver used to build the embankment of Qinghe, causing Qinghe to burst its embankment, destroying countless fertile fields, and displacing the people of Qinghe.

"Prince, what do you say?" Emperor Chunde looked at Xiao Chengjun coldly.

Xiao Chengjun stepped forward, his hands and four fingers joined together, and he bowed and said: "Erchen has never embezzled Qinghe's construction silver."

"The accounts of the Ministry of Household have verified that the two silvers of Qinghe were approved by the prince," said the Shangshu of the Xing Department, and said righteously. "The Qinghe county magistrate confessed that the money used to repair the dam was used to repair the ancestral hall. People have gone to Qinghe to investigate, and that ancestral hall is a royal ancestral hall dedicated to Huguo Temple."

Xiao Chengjun glanced at Shangshu of the Xing Department, frowned slightly, as if he didn't understand what was going on.

"Weichen dare to ask His Royal Highness, that the Zhezi for repairing Qingliang Temple was approved by His Highness?" Right-hand Chen Shichang walked out, bowed and saluted, and asked unhurriedly.

Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry is not qualified to directly ask the prince, so this is the case that governs the Central Letters of the Criminal Ministry, that is, the right minister asks him.

"It should be." Xiao Chengjun tilted his head and met Chen Shichang's eyes. Those eyes were very similar to those of Concubine Chen's. The tails of the eyes were picked up, with a somewhat hidden calculation.

"The silver used to build the Qinghe dyke, but his Highness approved the Huhu?" Chen Shichang asked immediately.

"This is also true." Xiao Chengjun no longer looked at him, but looked at Emperor Chunde on the dragon chair with a frown.

"Have you ever explained that the magistrate of Qinghe County built the imperial shrine?" Chen Shichang's voice was calm and quiet, as if he was asking if his Highness had eaten meatloaf today.

"I've never heard of any imperial shrine!" Xiao Chengjun's voice suddenly brightened, and his calm voice echoed in the sorghum hall of the Red Pillar Panlong, sonorous and shocking. He immediately knelt down and said, "Father, son yesterday Fang Congjingyishan returned to the palace, but I really don’t know what happened!"

Emperor Chunde looked at the grand prince with a stern face, with some doubts in his eyes.

"Then it's better to find the county magistrate of Qinghe to confront." Someone among the officials said such a sentence, but did not dare to stand up, and there was a riot in the hall for a while.

Zhao Duan, the leftist, glanced in the direction of the sound, and then lowered his eyes again without saying a word.

"My lord Qi, the county magistrate of Qinghe is dead this morning." The Xingbu minister knelt down with a thud.

The commotion suddenly stagnated, and the hall returned to deathly silence again. Only then did Shen Lian breathe a sigh of relief, and cast a gloomy look at You Xiang.

"What's the matter?" Emperor Chunde frowned. Qinghe County magistrate died at this time, really strange.

"Emperor Qizhen, the Qinghe county magistrate was tortured to death." The servant of the provincial governor, Shen Ying, Shen Lian's godson, immediately replied.

The Ministry of Internal Attendance has one Internal Attendant, a second grade, and two minor supervisors, both of which are grade three and are qualified to go to court. Shen Lian was in charge of supervising this matter, and the young prisoner Shen Ying went to mention the prisoner this morning.

The court immediately exploded. The two factions of the prime minister in Qinghe had their own countermeasures, but the county magistrate of Qinghe died so suddenly. Except for Chen Shichang and the initiator Shen Lian, who had been eagerly informed by the Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice before the court, the rest were all I don't know at all.

"Qinghe's case could not be simpler. Why did the Ministry of Penalty be used to repeatedly torture the magistrate of Qinghe?" Yang Youting, the official secretary of the bureau, couldn't keep talking, and immediately stepped forward to question.

"I'm afraid it's a trick."

"Maybe it's killing people."

...

The officials talked a lot, and each said it had its own reason.

Queen Ji's swordsmanship is really superb, but Lou Jing, who knows a little bit of swordsmanship, is quite difficult to deal with, but fortunately, he has internal skills, a flexible body, and slippery like a loach. Ji Jue can't ask for any cheap.

The Chixiao sword cuts iron like mud. It is naturally much sharper than the sword in Lou Jing's hand, but every time it collides with it, it won't be crushed in the slightest. Ji Zhu can't help but be surprised secretly. This situation must be the sword. Human strength is above him. The queen, who hadn't encountered a strong rival in the past two decades, suddenly became interested, no longer a point-and-stop gesture, and began to truly compete.

The concubine went to Fengyi Palace on time to ask for peace. The chief **** came to inform him. Seeing that the two were still fighting inextricably, they had to go back to the nobles.

"Kang Dang!" When the two blades collided, Lou Jing suddenly leaned back, Chi Xiao drew a little spark on the sword, and backhand pressed Chi Xiao down to try to get out, but unexpectedly Chi Xiao came back to kill at an extremely tricky angle. Lou Jing raised his leg and kicked Ji Zhuo's sword on the wrist. When the man stepped back to help cut his calf, he suddenly stopped. The hand struck the queen's head.

Ji Zhuo was taken aback, and quickly turned sideways, using ten percent strength to slash the sword that broke through the air from the side. But after hearing a "click", the Chixiao Sword was sharper in the end, and the sword in Lou Jing's hand broke in two at the moment it hit Ji Jue's shoulder.

"Erchen is rude." Lou Jing received the dagger and knelt down on one knee.

"Hahahaha, I haven't played a game like this in many years!" Ji Zhuo took the sword into its scabbard, and lifted the prince with one hand. A pair of eagle eyes were full of joy and joy, "Although your sword skills are average, of course The body law committee is really flexible, but have you learned the internal martial arts?"

"I can't hide from my father's queen." Lou Jing smiled obediently.

The chief **** came to report that the imperial concubines had left, "The dynasty has already been dispersed, and the emperor alone summoned the prince to the imperial study room."

Ji Zhuo put down his sweat-wiping cloth and glanced at Lou Jing beside him. Seeing that he was showing some concern, he nodded secretly, "Zhuoyu will go to the pavilion with the palace for a cup of tea."

"Yes." Lou Jing handed the broken sword to the eunuch, and personally helped the queen to walk into the only small pavilion in the garden.

"Do you really know this matter?" The court didn't argue for a reason. Emperor Chunde was a little irritable, staring at Xiao Chengjun who was kneeling on the ground and said.

"Erchen was in charge of Qinghe's relief work. As for why Qinghe broke the bank and what Qinghe County magistrate did, I really don't know." Xiao Chengjun lowered his head, took out the veil from his sleeve, and wiped the sweat from his face. The chilli water on the veil immediately made his eyes red.

"Do you have anything to say about the affairs of the court today?" Emperor Chunde looked at the prince who kept wiping sweat, and the fierceness in his eyes gradually disappeared.

"Emperor Father," Xiao Chengjun raised his head, his voice no longer as clear as he had just been, "The son-in-law was ordered to marry him, and he never came to court in ten days. Unexpectedly, such a major event happened. It is exhausted by the father and the son and the son is ashamed of the father. "After speaking, he leaned over and knocked his head to Emperor Chunde.

Emperor Chunde looked at the prince with red eyes. He never expected that Xiao Chengjun, who was silent and self-controlling, was forced to cry, and he couldn't help feeling a little guilty in his heart. In this way, the prince really has no other tricks. Perhaps Xiao Chengjun was really not a scheming one...

"His Royal Highness is very kind to the children, and the children want to pay back one or two." Lou Jing personally poured tea for the queen.

Ji Zhuo smiled and took the prince's tea, "You are so pleasing to me today, but in the final analysis, are you trying to please the prince?"

"My son is not to please my father," Lou Jing said without blinking. "My son has admired the bravery of his father since he was a child. Now he can see it, so he naturally wants to get close. The next day after the wedding, his father warned him The minister should treat the prince well, and the child minister is also acting according to the will of the queen."

"Hahaha..." The queen couldn't help laughing.

"Then father, can you tell the son, what kind of snacks your Royal Highness likes to eat, what kind of music, do you have a baby name?" Lou Jing leaned closer and asked in a low voice with a grin.
