Rebirth of the Black-bellied Princess Mo

Chapter 179: who is real and who is fake

Xiao Zimu was infected by his sudden collapse, and his eyes were broken.

He got up and walked in front of Mao Xianchun, helped him up, and said to him, "Don't be sad first, let me ask you, the famine is so serious, why didn't you report it to the court?"

"I think about my humble position. I mentioned it several times, and every time I was refuted by Master Zheng. He even said..." Mao Xianchun looked frightened and carefully peeked at Zheng Zhongguang with his peripheral vision.

Zheng Zhongguang's angry eyes had already widened, and he stared at him with a strange look on his face.

If his eyes were really like knives, Mao Xianchun would have been riddled with holes long ago.

"What did he say, you boldly explained it clearly, no one can threaten you!" Xiao Zimu looked at Zheng Zhongguang again after speaking, his eyes were full of warnings.

"Master Zheng said that reporting will affect his official reputation and tarnish his political performance." Mao Xianchun paused in a timely manner.

There was a cold snort from the Seventh Highness.

Mao Xianchun swallowed his saliva and continued: "Master Zheng also said that the current situation is a good time to make money. If the court knows and sends people down to provide food, wouldn't the price of rice they drive up go to waste, and the bamboo baskets will fetch water? It's empty."

"If that's the case, why don't you go to Beijing alone to present the performance?" Xiao Zimu raised his eyebrows in an unhappy tone.

"Everyone who has been to Beijing has died. Zheng Zhongguang sneered and threatened us afterwards, saying that he had a deep background in Beijing and wanted to participate in one of his books, which is really wishful thinking. Only then did we know that the person behind him was actually..." Mao Xianchun I looked at Xiao Zimu.

After a 'cough', he continued: "Afterwards, we naturally dared not."

Xiao Zimu's complexion was already extremely ugly, and he looked at Zheng Zhongguang, who also had a dark complexion.

Seeing his ten fingers gripping the armrests on both sides of the wooden chair, the blue veins on the back of his hands all burst out.

The joints bulged, and the finger pulps were pale on both sides.

"Since when did I actually become your arrogant and extravagant dependant for forming a party for selfishness?" Xiao Zimu pressed towards Zheng Zhongguang step by step.

When he raised his eyes again, the cold light in his eyes condensed coldly towards Zheng Zhongguang's eyes, making him wake up from his anger.

"His Royal Highness, he is lying, I am wronged." Zheng Zhongguang looked at him calmly with the cold light.

"His Royal Highness, what kind of person is Mr. Zheng, where do I need to repeat the slander, everyone in the city knows that the governor of ancient Anhui, Mr. Zheng, is a lecherous person and is insatiable. Your Highness, you just don't ask, take a look. The concubine in this mansion also knew it in her heart, not to mention that the villain also kept the book of rice grains ordered by Master Zheng as a proof..." Mao Xianchun was sobbing blood, and every sentence was jerking her to tears.

"Go back first, and bring the book tomorrow." Xiao Zimu instructed Mao Xianchun.

"I also hope that Your Highness will be the master of the people in this city, and I will remember His Highness's great kindness." Mao Xianchun looked at Xiao Zimu's handsome and clear face. At this time, he was trying his best to suppress his anger.

"His Royal Highness, I am really wronged. I did receive a lot of gifts and gifts. But I don't know anything about the rest. I really don't know what he just said..." Zheng Zhongguang couldn't argue, his eyebrows were wrinkled , the mouth also flattened up.

However, Xiao Zimu suddenly restrained the chills all over his body, and his face was full of anger. He glanced at Zheng Zhongguang with a solemn expression and said, "I know."

"Ah?" Zheng Zhongguang opened his mouth wide, but was stunned.

The overwhelming voice of abuse in his imagination did not come as promised, and he even said calmly and calmly that he knew, what did Xiao Zimu mean?

"Does Your Highness believe me?" Zheng Zhongguang asked uncertainly.

"You shouldn't know about the price of rice." Xiao Zimu walked back to the chair, resting his forehead in thought.

Zheng Zhongguang heard a touch of warmth in his heart, and suddenly had the urge to cry.

"Why does Your Highness believe me?" Zheng Zhongguang's voice was choked up.

Mao Xianchun was so aggressive just now, and his accusations were smooth and transparent. If it wasn't him who was criticizing him, he would have believed it long ago.

"At first you wanted to call him to testify for you, but I really thought you wanted to find a scapegoat. Unexpectedly, he did not hesitate to put all the blame on you, and the words were so skillful that it was like reciting It's been a few times. It made me suspicious." Xiao Zimu's eyes filled with a strange brilliance.

Zheng Zhongguang couldn't help but take a step forward and wanted to see more clearly.

Xiao Zimu looked up at him, his eyes exploring.

Only then did Zheng Zhongguang suddenly stop. He almost called out to his cousin due to the situation just now.

"His Royal Highness, I really saw that the price of the book was only ten cents, so I put the official seal on it." Zheng Zhongguang remembered the key to this matter.

The rest are Mao Xianchun's words without evidence, but this is real evidence.

"I also want to see what's so strange about this book." Xiao Zimu nodded, frowning lightly, and his jade-like face got a hint of sadness.

"Since Your Highness knows that he was so angry just now, could it be..." Zheng Zhongguang was not a fool either, and suddenly came to his senses.

"I have an idea in my heart, but I don't know if they will come on stage as I expected." Xiao Zimu had a doubtful look on his face, and he had already thought about it in his heart.

"I wonder if there is something that needs my cooperation." Zheng Zhongguang asked tentatively.

Xiao Zimu beckoned to him, and when he came over, he attached to his ear and whispered his plan.

Zheng Zhongguang's eyes flickered and his expression fluctuated. When Xiao Zimu finished speaking, he asked with a startled face, "Will it develop to this point?"

Xiao Zimu's complexion returned to his usual lukewarm, jade-like appearance.

There was a slight smile on the corner of his lips, and the hot summer was like a cool breeze blowing, which made people feel more comfortable.

"Who knows, let's take a step by step, I'm just guessing ahead of time. If there are no incidents, it will be the best, otherwise, if the price of rice is implemented on your head, the consequences will be unimaginable." Xiao Zimu got up. When I was about to go out, I stopped when I walked past the lotus image.

"Your Highness, if Xiaguan can't clear up his grievances, I hope you can take care of Xiaguan's parents in the future." Zheng Zhongguang used the word 'Xiaguan' in front of Xiao Zimu for the first time.

"If you haven't done this, I will keep you safe and take care of your own parents." Although Xiao Zimu's voice was soft, his meaning was deep.

"Xiaguan, thank your Highness." Zheng Zhongguang knelt down to pay homage.

Xiao Zimu walked to the door, suddenly turned his head to look at Zheng Zhongguang, who was kneeling on the ground, and asked, "Do you like that lotus flower very much?"

"Yes, although Xiaguan doesn't know Danqing very well, he has a special liking for this pair of lotus flowers. It's just that the painting is not signed, and Xiaguan doesn't know who it came from." Zheng Zhongguang didn't know why he suddenly asked such a sentence, but he was still truthful. back.

"After this matter is over, I will come back to sign this lotus image for you."
