Chapter 324: Brother, do me a favor(1/2)

"So you two have already been in Zheng's Mansion?" Yue Jiangying looked at them suspiciously. It was indeed Zhang Lian, but the stinky girl's eyes were very recognizable. The cunning female fox looked like she was not a good person.

From the first time he saw her in Yunhe Mountain, he had the intuition that he would have to fall into her hands sooner or later. But it turned out that it had been more than once!

"That's not the case. I met at Zheng Cheng's birthday party a few days ago." Chen Xianbai corrected.

"Birthday banquet?" He remembered that Prime Minister Zheng's fiftieth birthday had sent posts to many colleagues and friends. General Hongwei's mansion was naturally among them. He wanted to go to the banquet with his father, but because there was something unexpected happening in the market near the inn, he rushed to deal with Ning Qingzhi and failed to go to the Zheng Mansion.

Later, when he heard that the eldest son of the Zheng Mansion had lost his manners after drinking, he teased Hu Ji, who was the emperor in public, and almost started a fight with a guest in the mansion. He was worried that although Chen had nothing to do, he was lucky that he did not pursue the matter.

Now that he saw Gu Ruxu, he had roughly guessed the clues he had made in the past few days.

He just said, who else can make Chen Xiantian messy?

"I am guarding the city gate every day, how did you come in?" He was puzzled. Lin Xu's big pig's hooves entered the city until he knew when this stinky girl had sneaked in, but he didn't even know at all. Can the people of the Red Shadow Sect fly to the sky and escape?

Gu Ruxu looked at him with a look of "Are you a fool?" and stared at him for a while, sighed, "I don't know who is so arrogant. He dares to let you guard the city gate and turn around and put a bunch of assassins in. You may not know."

"You!" Yue Jiangying stared at her in annoyance, "Gu Ruxu, can you stop being like a thorny head?"

She smiled and said, "Okay, I will tell you that I entered the city among the sluts who were offered anger. On the night I entered the palace and showed you to the palace, I saw you standing outside the palace gate on duty."

Upon hearing this, Yue Jiangying was surprised: "...You are so brave."

She can even get away with the dance in front of the emperor. Should she be considered a scheming female devil who has been living in the world for many years?

"You look like you are secretly scolding me." She glanced over and Yue Jiangying felt guilty.

"Let's talk about the serious matter." Chen Bai interrupted them helplessly, "giving Hu Ji to the ministers to enjoy it seems to be a generous act of the king and the ministers to enjoy it, but these Hu Ji never gained the trust of the Great Zhou from beginning to end, and they still have to be more careful when they regard them as playthings. Before they figure out their details, they will definitely take strict supervision. Eleventh, now living in the Zheng Mansion as Hu Ji, is under Zheng Cheng's surveillance. If they hadn't changed their faces today, they would probably not have been so easy to leave the mansion."

Yue Jiangying thought for a moment: "My father told me that after Zheng Chengguan became the right prime minister, the power of the left prime minister in the court gradually declined. It must be to gradually regain the power of the prime minister who was divided into two parts. My father was in the court to prevent him from being the dominant. This person has a good reputation among the people and is very diligent in the court. Your Majesty still relies very much on him. You must be more careful in his house."

Although he had been practicing in the military camp, he was careful about the affairs in the court. This Lord Zheng and his father were also the entire General Hongwei Mansion. He was known as the right-hand mansion of the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He may have some differences in the eyes of His Majesty. However, since the Ningguo Mansion was learned from the previous lessons, he naturally would not underestimate Zheng Cheng.

Your Majesty is now using the General's Mansion and the Right Prime Minister to restrain each other. If anyone makes the lead, the Great Zhou Dynasty will probably be turned upside down.

"I and Eleven cannot leave the mansion for too long, so I will tell a long story. I met you this time to check this Prime Minister Zheng." Chen Xianbai said solemnly.

"You want to investigate Zheng Cheng?" Yue Jiangying looked at Gu Ruxu in shock, "It seems that you want to investigate."

Gu Ruxu did not answer, which was a default.

"You should know why I came to Chujing. Among the three charges that accused the Gu family of Gu, there was a testimony of affair between Ningguo Mansion and the Queen. I have found out that it was from Zheng Cheng's mouth." Since he asked for help, these things must be explained to him in advance. "I wonder if you have heard that Zheng Cheng was a disciple of Wenxian Academy, but because of his background, he did not seem to have made a lot of achievements. Later, he was sent to Jiangbei as a parent official for three years before returning to Chujing to join the court."

Yue Jiangying was stunned: "This matter is serious?"

He knew that Zheng Cheng was the one who was appointed as a minister after he was appointed as a minister and knew that he was from a poor family. As for how he used to be, he never delved into it.

Unexpectedly, he was still a person from Wenxian Academy.

"There should be no falsehood. This person has a great relationship with that case. His original testimony should have been left in the Ministry of Justice. I am afraid it will not be so easy to get it. Even if I get it, it will be difficult to clarify the truth if it cannot be proved that the innocence between the Duke of Ning and the Queen." Gu Ruxun said.

"So you hope to use the connections between General Hongwei's mansion and this prince to find out how Zheng Cheng gave this testimony back then?" He understood her intention.

"Not only that, I want to know how he left Wenxian Academy and why he wanted to repay Ningguo Mansion with kindness."

"It's interesting." Yue Jiangying smiled meaningfully, "I am a little curious, but I am living a good life, so why should I work hard to help investigate the case? You should know that the three words "Ningguo Mansion" will not end well in Chujing. Even if I am not afraid of death, I have to consider the General Mansion?"

Gu Ruxu pondered for a moment and said, "You don't need to interfere in the case of Ningguo Mansion. You just need to help find someone who had been in Wenxian Academy five years ago and tell me that you can. In this way, General Hongwei Mansion will not attract suspicion."

Wenxian Academy was enfeoffed and Rulin Pavilion was reduced to prison. His disciples naturally went their separate ways. Not long after they entered the court, they would inexplicably get into trouble. At the least, they would be exiled to the common people, and at the worst, they would be demoted to the common people. They could be said to have been implicated. Now that they want to find these people, it is inconvenient to rely on her and Lan Zhou's current situation.

He raised his eyebrows: "I have been to Wenxian Academy. This prince is quite popular. You may find one or two people inquiry, but what benefits can this prince help you?"

"Jiangying..." Chen Xianbai knew that he was fighting against her for the past. When was it time? He didn't bother to be confused.

Gu Ruxu was calm and calm, pointing to Chen Xianbai: "Aren't your elder brother asking you too?"

Yue Jiangying was so angry that she saw her shameless appearance: "I am not helping him, this is a helping you, right?"

She huh: "...I was your junior sister too."

Upon hearing this, Yue Jiangying's smile froze on his face: "You are so embarrassed to say that you are my junior sister, a stinky girl. For five years, you haven't even called me "Senior Brother"?"

"Senior Brother." She smiled very politely, "Can you do a favor?"

"You!..." The veins on his forehead were so angry that she was blocked by her that she forgot what he originally wanted to say, "You are willing to use this trick, and this prince is not fooled. You used this prince to beat me and let the dog bite me. I haven't settled with you yet!"

He suddenly felt the pleasure of a serf turning over and gave her a fierce look.

It is true that a man should not be petty with a weak woman, but given that she is not a weak woman, she is a mountain king. He was a lot of troubled by her back then. He could not resist her using force to use secret tricks, and then he was surrounded by her reasoning. The prince of General Hongwei's mansion fell into her hands. He could not swallow this revenge for three or five years.

Gu Ruxu looked at him quietly and suddenly turned his fingers with a kind expression.

Kara sounded so crisp.

He shook his heart and sat up straight: "You, what do you want to do?"

She bent the corners of her lips: "I'm itchy and scratching my hands."

Yue Jiangying: "..."

Liar! I believe you!

On the other hand, Chen Fanbai was sipping tea on the ground.

Recalling the losses she suffered in the past, his scalp numb: "...I didn't say I wouldn't help, it's a trivial matter, it depends on your anxiety."

She smiled slightly: "Where is there, I am not very anxious, and I have to worry about this matter."

She bit the word "Senior Brother" hard. Yue Jiangying, who used to be called out by "crying bags", couldn't help but get goosebumps all over her body.

"General Yue is an important official in the court, and General Hongwei's mansion is also under many eyes. You can take a good grasp of this matter by yourself. If someone is suspicious, you can stop immediately." Chen Xianbai reminded him.

Originally, it was a helpless move to come to him for help. Whether it was the Red Shadow Cult or the Xiqu Villa, there was nothing to be sent in Chu Kyoto. If you want to find out the relationship between Zheng Cheng and Wenxian Academy and even Ningguo Mansion, you had to inquire about it. He and Eleven are now under Zheng Cheng's nose and will find it difficult to get out for a while.

Yue Jiangying nodded and turned to Gu Ruxu: "I heard that you are a member of the Gu family, but I have never heard of the descendant of a side branch of 'Gu Ruxu'. Now you suddenly returned to Chujing and investigated this case. Why did you dare to take such a big risk? Speaking of which, you know a lot about the Gu family's situation. Could it be that you have been in Ningguo Mansion?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Ruxu's eyes flashed and looked at Chen Xianbai: "What, you haven't told him yet?"

He had long guessed the relationship between Gu Zhao and Gu Ruxu, and she thought Yue Jiangying knew it too.

Chen Fanbai shook his head: "It's not time to tell him."

Seeing them talking to each other, Yue Jiangying was even more confused: "Why, I'm hiding something from this prince?"

Chen Xianbai glanced at him: "Actually, eleven..."

Before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Gu Ruxu.

"I have indeed lived in Ningguo Mansion for a few years. If Prince Yue is so curious about who I am, you might as well check it out yourself."

Yue Jiangying frowned: "You are a person who is also a good person... Just check it out, can this prince be afraid of you?"

She smiled silently, not saying anything.

Chen Fanbai remembered that he seemed to have said that he almost got engaged to the little princess of the Gu family, but was intercepted by the late emperor, and he couldn't help but cough in embarrassment.

I don’t know what kind of mood he would feel after knowing Eleven’s identity.

"I will think of the matter about Wenxian Academy. I will tell you if there is news." Yue Jiangying hesitated for a while and looked at her, "I have something to ask you."

"explain."

"Since you are in Chujing, who has also entered the city?" He seemed to be avoiding something.

"Do you want to ask A Shu?" She understood it, "She is also in Zheng Mansion."

He choked: "Ben, I didn't ask her!"

"Don't you want to know the whereabouts of Ashu?" Her eyebrows raised.

"...I don't mean this. In short, she's fine." He scratched his hair awkwardly, "I want to tell you the serious matters. Don't let me break the prince!"

She nodded: "If you don't ask A Shu, then who do you want to ask? Could it be Lin Xu? If the news is correct, he should be in General Hongwei's Mansion."

"Tsk, don't mention him. If my sister hadn't stopped him, I would have thrown him out!" He sighed upset, "I'm asking about the...that little doctor beside you."

Gu Ruxu froze: "What did he do?"

His face darkened, and he glanced at her impatiently: "Do you really think that this prince knows nothing?"

The words have come to this point, there is no need to point them out.

Gu Ruxu's expression became a little more serious: "If I say he is in the city, what do you think? If he is not there, what do you think?"

Yue Jiangying was silent for a long time and took a few sips of tea in annoyance.

"What can I do? Can I still win the prince who escaped death?"

Although he had only met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he had never believed in the affair between Duke Ning Guo and the Queen, so he naturally would not believe in the bloody recognition of his relatives.

When he saw Lan Zhou again, he could not recognize him at first. After realizing his identity, he once hesitated about how to deal with this matter.

After weighing the trade-offs for a long time, he couldn't draw a conclusion.

But no matter what, at least this secret will not be revealed from him.

After a moment of silence, Gu Ruxu said lightly: "You should know less about this. Let's do the business of Wenxian Academy first. We will come out for a while and it's time to go back."

She stood up and signaled Chen Fanbai to leave this.

Yue Jiangying pulled Chen Xianbai and asked, "You are now a disciple of the Zheng Mansion. She is the Hu Ji, the emperor's gift. How can you and the two of you speak in the mansion on weekdays? Can you still leave the mansion together smoothly?"

Chen Xianbai glanced at him: "You haven't come to your birthday party. I guess you didn't know that Zheng Cheng had given her to my house as a maid. She lives with me now."
