Chapter 400 Exchange of Information
Chapter 400 Exchange of Information
In the following time, Luo Xiaoran and Chen Ji shared their experiences during the time they were apart.
Although messages are sent on weekdays to inform people of important matters, the details still need to be discussed in detail.
Luo Xiaoran first talked about how she set out from Yizhou and was poisoned and assassinated by Chen Lingyi along the way.
After she moved into the palace, the Empress Dowager did not make things difficult for her and directly agreed to Chen Ji's marriage with her.
After that, on the second day of the Qianqiu Festival, Lin Yuanfang was found dead in Fukang Palace. The palace eunuch Xiao Xingzi falsely accused her of being the murderer, so she was imprisoned in Tianlao. Finally, she teamed up with Huo Qingyun to push Concubine Tang out as a scapegoat.
He had just been released from the prison, and then he was put in jail again for the Red Coral case. That night, he was poisoned, and the Queen came to pick a fight with him. Last night, he was almost burned to death...
In addition, Luo Xiaoran also expressed her doubts about Doctor Zhang, feeling that this person could no longer be trusted.
The last thing was the death of the former crown prince. During her conversation with Huo Qingyun, she suddenly guessed that the former crown prince died of allergies, and Jiang Bin might be related to this...
Luo Xiaoran talked a lot in one breath. Fortunately, after Chen Ji had received a lot of modern knowledge from Luo Xiaoran, he had already gotten used to Luo Xiaoran's "stormy" output.
Last time, Chen Ji was numb.
This time, he was not numb.
After sorting out everything Luo Xiaoran had said in his mind, Chen Ji also told Luo Xiaoran that the mutual trade was functioning well.
In addition, there was an assassin who went to Luo's house. In order not to make Luo Xiaoran worry, Chen Ji did not tell her at that time.
He knew very well that Luo Xiaoran cared about her family and friends the most, and now was a good time to say it all at once.
"...I have already brought the people from Luo's residence to Yizhou to live with Chen'er."
Luo Xiaoran broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, before she left, she asked Chen Ji to send people to secretly protect her in Hexi Village. Otherwise, Qiu Niang, Uncle Xiang, Aunt Ji and Ruyi would have been implicated and killed by her.
"I don't want to say thank you anymore. I asked you to send someone to Hexi Village just to be on the safe side. I didn't expect that she would be so shameless and vicious!"
Of course Chen Ji knew who the "she" Luo Xiaoran was talking about, but he also didn't want to reveal that person!
Speaking of Qiu Niang, Luo Xiaoran suddenly remembered Cheng Yiwen who had impeached Chen Ji in the court, so she said:
"Today, I am reporting you to the court for Cheng Yiwen, the husband of Qiu Niang's late husband's sister, Lu Zhu'er.
I once heard Qiu Niang say that Cheng Yiwen passed the imperial examination last year and entered the Hanlin Academy. According to the procedure, he should study in the Hanlin Academy for three years, and then be granted an official position after the examination. How come he became a censor of the Inspectorate in just one year?"
Cheng Yiwen is just a minor character, and Chen Ji didn't really take it seriously, but since Luo Xiaoran mentioned it, he planned to find someone to investigate.
"And Zhu Jingxing? Why would he report you?" Luo Xiaoran was puzzled.
Chen Ji was very clear about Zhu Jingxing's affairs. After all, he was one of the few officials in the court who came from a humble family and was promoted so quickly.
"Zhu Jingxing is on the surface a good friend of Lin Yuanxuan, the third son of the Lin family, but in reality he is a loyal minister who supports the imperial power. This time he came forward to impeach me just to show off to the Lin family."
For some reason, Luo Xiaoran breathed a sigh of relief. She told Chen Ji truthfully:
"Zhu Jingxing is my brother in this body after all. I don't want to stand on the opposite side of him one day."
……
Outside the imperial study, Zheng Tianbao stood guard at the door, secretly curious.
But it was only in his heart and never showed on his face.
Early this morning, before the court session, the Emperor sent someone to summon Princess Qingyi to the palace, saying that he wanted to see her as soon as the court session was over.
When Princess Qingyi arrived outside the imperial study, the emperor, who had just finished court, changed his route and went to visit Concubine Bai.
Princess Qingyi waited in front of the imperial study for two hours before the emperor, who had just finished lunch, finally arrived and summoned Princess Qingyi, whose thighs were shaking from standing.
In the imperial study, Emperor Tianqi did not sit behind the desk, but walked around the desk to digest his food.
One lap, two laps, three laps...
After an unknown number of rounds, Chen Lingyi finally couldn't help herself and asked first:
"Your Majesty, I wonder why Xuan Qingyi came here today?"
Emperor Tianqi stopped walking.
"Can't I announce the emperor sister if there is nothing else?"
"Your Majesty has misunderstood. Qingyi did not mean that."
Chen Lingyi already knew the reason why the emperor summoned her here. Lan Zheng had actually fallen into the hands of the emperor!
Over the years, Lan Zheng has killed many people for himself. If his mouth is pried open, many of his secrets will be revealed!
However, compared to Lan Zheng falling into the hands of Emperor Tianqi, Chen Lingyi was more concerned about the fact that Luo Xiaoran actually survived the fire in the Heavenly Prison!
Last night she had been waiting for the news that Luo Xiaoran was burned to charcoal, but what she waited for was the news that her uncle broke into the palace to save Luo Xiaoran, and in the end Luo Xiaoran was safe and sound!
She was so angry that she smashed all the treasures in the room and killed several maids who looked like Luo Xiaoran, but the rage in her heart did not ease in the slightest!
Is this Luo Xiaoran blessed by the gods? Why can't she be killed no matter what she does!
Now that his uncle has come to Beijing, he actually did such a heinous thing as breaking into the palace for Luo Xiaoran!
He will definitely protect Luo Xiaoran!
He missed the last chance to kill Luo Xiaoran!
Looking at Chen Lingyi who dared to be distracted in the imperial study, the coldness in Emperor Tianqi's heart appeared directly on his face.
When Chen Lingyi collected her thoughts and looked up at Emperor Tianqi, what caught her eyes was a pair of extremely cold eyes, which frightened her heart!
Under the chill, Chen Lingyi's body couldn't help but collapse, and she fell awkwardly on the floor of the imperial study!
"Your Majesty..." She couldn't help but murmur.
Emperor Tianqi looked at the embarrassed figure on the ground, feeling angry, hateful, and sad. All kinds of complicated emotions mixed together, running rampant in his imperial heart!
"The Ministry of Works has completed the repairs of Prince Yan's Mansion in Kyoto. I will go to the Empress Dowager in the near future to ask for an imperial decree to grant marriage, so that my uncle and Luo Xiaoran can get married as soon as possible."
After a long time, Emperor Tianqi's mood calmed down a little, and he forced himself to speak gently to Chen Lingyi.
But Chen Lingyi was obviously not as calm as Emperor Tianqi. When she heard the word "marriage", she couldn't control herself.
"Your Majesty! Luo Xiaoran is of humble status and she raised the late crown prince's posthumous son, Chen Xingchen. How can you let such a person marry the King of Yan?
Even if you don't care that Luo Xiaoran's humble status will tarnish the honor of the royal family, aren't you afraid that the Prince of Yan will have the child named Chen Xingchen in his hands, which will give him leverage, and the structure of the court will change in the future?"
