The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 214: : Exploring the King of Ruyang

  The luncheon did not end until a quarter of Shenshi.

   Xiao Yan, Zhang Lianchuan and Tian Boguang were so drunk that they were sent home by Xiao Rui in a carriage. Zhuge Liuying still had something to do, and she also took the lead, leaving only Xiao Qingqing to accompany Xiao Rui.

   "Qingqing, I'll take you back to the house." Xiao Rui turned to look at her, as if it was because of drinking, her cheeks were flushed like peach blossoms, and Xiao Rui couldn't help thinking of the time at Lingxiao Tower, and her heart was hot.

Xiao Qingqing seemed to feel a little bit shy, bowed her head slightly, and said, "It just so happened that you visited my father last time, but he was not at home. I talked about it afterwards, and he said he would wait for you to go there when you have time. , Just right to chat."

   Xiao Rui was startled, and his fiery heart was suddenly poured with cold water.

   When I went to Ruyang Palace that day, the visit was false, and the temptation was true. The people behind the assassination of Xiao Rui in collusion with the Cao family caravan were able to freely enter and leave Ruyang Palace, so Xiao Rui had to be cautious. It’s a pity that the last trial did not make any progress. Although Jia Xu also secretly investigated these days, the water in the Ruyang Palace was too deep, and the clues found were limited. There was no clear investigation on how many staff members Ruyang had, let alone found. that person.

   What's more, what makes Xiao Rui even more dare not to be sure is whether King Ruyang is also involved.

   It stands to reason that King Ruyang learned that Xiao Qingqing's relationship with him must be on his own side. This is the truth, but Xiao Rui couldn't believe the fact that he was self-righteous.

   Xiao Rui has learned to be cautious.

   "What's wrong? Suddenly motionless?" Xiao Qingqing asked.

   Xiao Rui has already practiced to be unpretentious. Naturally, Xiao Qingqing will not let Xiao Qingqing see his inner thoughts. He smiled and said, "I'm thinking about meeting Master Yue. What gifts should I bring with you? Will it be rude to go empty-handed."

   Xiao Qingqing was ashamed, and hummed: "Who is your father-in-law, and your father-in-law is the champion, don't talk nonsense. Besides, you brought a lot of things last time, so forget it this time."

   Xiao Rui nodded and smiled: "Okay!"

   Immediately, Li Yuanfang went to drive and escorted Xiao Rui and Xiao Qingqing to Ruyang Palace.

   The King Ruyang was feeding the fish in the garden. He heard that the King Xian was coming, and he hurriedly greeted him, and then invited the King Xian into the main hall.

   "The last time King Xian came to visit, I happened to go find King Zhou to play chess, but I have not returned, so you have been waiting for a long time." King Ruyang smiled.

   Xiao Rui respectfully said: "The emperor is serious, I also come to sit and sit casually, there is nothing serious."

   Ruyang Wang said: "I heard that your majesty appointed you to accompany the martial arts examination?"

   "Yes, my father trusts him and gave me this errand. I'm worried, don't be too frustrated." Xiao Rui looked melancholy.

"How come!" Wang Ruyang admired: "Wang Xian is not only civil and military, but also caring for the people. This charity auction raises funds for the people affected by the disaster. The people pass by word of mouth. They all praised His Highness for his kindness and are willing to help you live forever. The memorial tablet, a small martial arts examination escort, how can it be you?"

   "By the emperor's uncle's words, as long as you don't let the father down." Xiao Rui said.

   King Ruyang replied: "Your Majesty’s insight is like a torch, as long as you perform well, you can get what you want in the future."

   "It's difficult, there are unexpected events in the sky, and people have misfortunes and blessings. I can only say living in the moment!" Xiao Rui said deliberately.

   King Ruyang nodded, and said leisurely: "Yes, people have good fortune every day, no one can control this, and you can only act carefully."

The gossip was almost done, Xiao Rui looked back at Xiao Qingqing and said, "Qingqing, you can go down and rest for a while. I have a chat with the emperor and I will go back. You accompany Liu Ying and Zhang Ruoxi at the luncheon to drink. Don’t drink, you’re not feeling well at this time, go and rest."

  Ruyang Wang laughed and said, "Yeah, go down. It's boring to sit here, and talk to King Xian for his father."

   Xiao Qingqing nodded, and then leaned forward and left.

   As soon as she left, King Ruyang asked: "His Royal Highness, Qingqing is gone, if you have something to say, you might as well speak directly!"

   Xiao Rui pretended to be curious: "What does the emperor say?"

"You kid, don't pretend. The last time you came to me in a hurry, this time you talked eloquently. It was unexpected, and it was a blessing and good fortune. There must be something wrong!" Ruyang Wang scolded with a smile: "Pretend in front of me, I will eat You have more salt than you can eat!"

   Xiao Rui wanted to refute him, this sentence is wrong, because according to the human salt measurement, the daily consumption of 6g, a year is 2190g, 50 years is...

   shook his head, Xiao Rui felt that he had digressed.

   hurriedly pulled his attention back, Xiao Rui smiled and said: "I made the emperor laugh, my nephew did have something, but let's talk about it, I am afraid of angering the emperor, let's not say it, and I am afraid of making a big mistake."

   "Oh? What's the matter?" King Ruyang immediately sat down, and asked.

   Xiao Rui said, "Uncle Emperor remembers the assassination of King Tang and I at the East Tube Tower?"

   King Ruyang nodded and said, "Naturally know, because of the assassin's arrogance, your majesty sent Dongchang and Jinyiwei to investigate the capital. What's wrong? Did you find a clue?"

"Not only were clues found, all the people involved in the case were all hunted down. Among them, the leader of this assassination, Cao Hanbing of the Cao family of the Great Zhao Kingdom, was also captured by the East Factory." Xiao Rui said: "After this person was arrested, my father asked me to personally After interrogation, I was threatened and lured. He confessed the truth and confessed to the assassination. However, he mentioned one thing, that he was able to count me successfully in the capital, and almost succeeded in the assassination, all because of the black hands in the country. They make suggestions, and this person is extremely cunning. Every time he meets, he is dressed in disguise, and his whereabouts are cautious, which is extremely difficult to track."

   Xiao Rui always looked at King Ruyang's expression while speaking.

   But he is an old river and lake, frowning as he listens to Xiao Rui's account, there is no different color in his eyes, and he can't see the fluctuations in his heart at all.

"The Cao family killer came out of the capital to find out your whereabouts, and even the layout to kill you is extremely difficult. Only someone who is familiar with you can be designed to lure you into the game. It seems that the people behind the scenes are very familiar with you... No wonder you will It is said that people have blessings and misfortunes." Wang Ruyang sighed with emotion.

   "The prince controversy can't be prevented by all means. You must be prepared for this matter. Otherwise, it may be difficult to persist until the end." Wang Ruyang said very implicitly.

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "What the emperor said is that I have been mentally prepared for this. I just said that the person behind the scenes is extremely difficult to track, but that Cao Hanbing is also cunning, lest he be used by others, so The design followed, and finally succeeded in following that person!"

   Ruyang Wang raised his brows and asked quickly, "Who is this person?"

   Xiao Rui sighed, and said, "Cao Hanbing recruited from the truth, saying that this person has entered...The Royal Palace of Ruyang!"

   "What? Into my mansion?" Ruyang Wang was taken aback, and said in surprise: "Impossible!"

Xiao Rui said: "Naturally, I would not believe it, but after exhausting many methods, Cao Hanbing always killed the person behind the scenes and entered Ruyang Palace and entered through the back door. I naturally knew that the emperor could not send someone to kill me, so I don't dare to say, I'm afraid to make the emperor angry. But if the palace is so big, in case there are wicked people hiding here, if I don't say it, wouldn't it be putting the emperor, Qingqing, and aunt Wang in danger?"

King Ruyang nodded and said: "This is reasonable. I will send my confidant to check all the people in the palace tomorrow. Don't worry, if the black hand behind the scenes is really hidden here, I will inform you immediately to see if I can follow the vine and find Zangde. Deeper people."

   Xiao Rui smiled and said, "This will trouble the emperor."

"The family doesn't talk about two things." Wang Ruyang sighed and said, "Although I am far from the court, after all, wearing the false name of Marshal of Soldiers and Horses will arouse people's envy and suspicion. Now is an example. It seems that I have to find an opportunity to report to your Majesty and remove the imaginary name of the Marshal of the Soldiers and Horses. I will also plant my flowers and raise my fish leisurely. Wouldn't it be nice?"

Xiao Rui smiled, his heart was ups and downs, but there was no expression on his face, and said: "I think my father will never allow the emperor to resign from the position of marshal of soldiers and horses. Once there is a major battle, a man of prestige is bound to be needed. Commander, in the series of generals in the Great Summer, only the emperor has such authority!"

"Haha...No way, no way, old, the next is your young people's world! Wait a few years, the champion Hou will be the person with the most military merit and prestige among the generals, and he was caught by your kid." Ruyang Wang smiled.

  ……

   Xiao Qingqing just came out of the main hall and was about to go back to the room to rest. After drinking some white wine at the luncheon, he was a little confused.

   She took a few steps, and suddenly thought that Xiao Rui had also drunk a lot of alcohol, not knowing whether he needed some hot soup to sober up.

   So she turned and went back. When she first arrived in the main hall, she just heard Xiao Rui say that the black hand behind the scenes had entered the Ruyang Palace, so she stiffened and didn't go in. Instead, she hid secretly outside the door and listened to the conversation inside.

  ……

   Xiao Rui is still chatting with King Ruyang.

"Although I have a marriage contract with Zhuge Liuying~www.wuxiahere.com~, the champion is loyal to my father. If he has other thoughts, he will not be a champion, nor will he be trusted by my father, Zhuge Yuan The same is true for Ba. Of course, the nephew can use their prestige to pull the tiger's skin, so that people who are secretly peeping will not dare to do it. This is enough." Xiao Rui smiled.

Ruyang Wang said: "Yes, the Zhuge family is loyal and good, and only loyal to your Majesty. But you should not be scornful. Now that you and Qingqing are in harmony, I will definitely help you! If you have any difficulties, please come to me. I am among civil and military officials. There is still some face! Haha..."

   Xiao Rui was overjoyed, saying: "Thank you, Uncle Emperor, for your support!"

   The King Ruyang nodded, feeling quite emotional: "I have no children under my knees, only Qingqing is a baby girl. If I don't help you, who can I help? Life will not bring death or take away."

   Xiao Rui smiled back, but did not answer.

   He sees that the temptation is almost the same, and there will be no breakthrough if he continues to talk. Ruyang Wang is shrewd and old-fashioned, and it is difficult to test through language.

   However, Xiao Rui had already caught what she wanted.

   "Uncle Emperor, it's getting late, so my nephew won't disturb the uncle and rest earlier." Xiao Rui got up and saluted.

   King Ruyang also got up and said, "Okay! Go back and rest early."

   Xiao Rui nodded, and Wang Ruyang sent him out of the main hall and asked the steward to send Xiao Rui out of the house.

   Wang Ruyang stood in front of the door, watching Xiao Rui leave his sight, only then did the smile on his face return to calm.

   then turned and left.

   Xiao Qingqing hid in the dark, and walked out after both of them had left.

   Her face is unpredictable, her teeth biting her lips tightly.
