Chapter 9: Helpless Purple Lotus (1)
"I Li Yongzhen bowed to the Empress." Li Yongzhen came to Kunning Palace with great anxiety to see Queen Zhang Yan. He didn't know why Queen Zhang Yan suddenly helped him like this. With his knowledge in the palace for many years, there would be no fillings in the sky.
Zhang Yan still hates people like Li Yongzhen. She has targeted Wei Zhongxian a lot when she was doing things for her before, so she felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Li Yongzhen. However, in order to deal with Wei Zhongxian, she still resisted not showing that disgusting look and said lightly: "Get up."
"Empress Xie." Li Yongzhen responded, stood up from the ground, and stood down to the side.
"Do you know why I gave you such a chance?" Zhang Yan asked in a very peaceful voice. He cultivated his energy. After a few years, the mother of a country did it. No matter when, every word she said revealed a sense of majesty, which made people feel the pressure of not daring not to answer.
Li Yongzhen might not have this consciousness before, but now he felt that why he always spoke so tremblingly in front of her before. It turned out that people who are mothers of a country were born with an irresistible temperament, and hurriedly replied: "Report to the Empress, I don't know."
"It's good if you don't know." Zhang Yan paused for a moment and continued, "The emperor handed over the heavy responsibility of the draft to you. What are you going to do?"
"But according to the instructions of the Empress." Li Yongzhen knew that this was the time to show his loyalty.
"What's the best way to tell me? The state has national laws and the family has family rules. Do whatever you should do." Zhang Yan reached out and picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said calmly.
"I understand." Li Yongzhen wondered. Did the queen find herself to say these useless nonsense?
"I heard that Wei Zhongxian arranged his son and Nake's son to be your deputy?" Zhang Yan felt that it was almost done. Li Yongzhen did not show an impatient look and decided to get to the point.
"Yes, Empress, the factory is in charge of the state affairs, and I have to follow his arrangements." Li Yongzhen was also very slippery. He had already expected the danger. Although the power was brought back, he also buried a disaster for himself. He understood it after he decided to rely on the queen's tree, but he could not imagine that he would reach such a high level at once. If he followed his vision, he would slowly gain the queen's trust, save his life, and then slow down the other things, so Wei Zhongxian would be
He is still a small person and cannot play much role. He will be much less willing to kill him. Then he will slowly consolidate his position and cultivate his own strength. At that time, it will be difficult for Wei Zhongxian to kill him. Now he has no power to accumulate at all, and he jumps to such a high position. In order to save his life, first, he can only obey Wei Zhongxian, at least he can get rid of his time later. Second, rely on the queen Zhang Yan to do things for Zhang Yan, get support, and keep himself safe.
"Where is your destination?"
"I heard from the factory that it seems to be Henan." Li Yongzhen replied truthfully. He didn't know that the real destination was actually Kaifeng, so Wei Zhongxian gave him a large area of location.
"Aren't you going to Yangzhou, Suzhou, Hangzhou and other places in Jiangnan?" Zhang Yan wanted to test it further and asked.
"I don't know this. The factory arranged for me to go to Henan, so I could only go to Henan." Li Yongzhen's heart also turned around. Going to Henan, is Wei Zhongxian going to deal with King Xin? There is this possibility, no wonder the queen suddenly helped her at this time, and it turned out to be for this?
"So that's how it is." Zhang Yan seemed to know and did not continue to say anything.
"I heard that Wei Zhongxian sent five beautiful girls to the Xinwang Mansion in Beijing. He said that the Xinwang came to Beijing in a hurry, and there was no maid who could serve him. He chose a few beautiful girls who could serve him and sent him over, right?"
"It seems like this, and I have heard of it."
"But I always feel that the emperor's approach is a bit inappropriate. Most of the beautiful girls are from poor families. They are served by others at home. How can they serve others? That's it..." Zhang Yang lowered his eyebrows and thought for a while, and called out to Zihe beside him: "Zihe, how many years have you been in the palace?"
Zi He's heart trembled, and his voice was somewhat unnatural, and he replied: "Report to the Empress, it's been seven years."
"It's been seven years, and it's not too short. In another three years, you should leave the palace and get married, right?" Although Zhang Yan hated her for betrayal, Zihe was indeed very good at taking care of people, otherwise she wouldn't leave her by her side for seven years without changing people.
"Yes." Zihe said nervously.
"Well, you have been taking care of me for the past seven years. Let's do this. I'm willing to leave the palace early, how about it?"
"Empress, don't drive me away!" Zihe knelt down suddenly, tears burst out from her eyes.
"Zihe, after hearing from me, I won't drive you away. You are still young now. If you stay in the palace for another three years, you may not be able to get married when you go out. Now you have a chance. If you go to the palace to serve the prince, you will be much more free outside. Maybe you can find a good man sooner, and it will be vain for your care for me over the past seven years." It is false to say that there is no relationship between Zhang Yan and Zihe. It's a pity that this person who has always regarded as a sister in her heart is actually the one who has been betraying her. She is really heartbroken. She can't keep her by her side. It's the best way to leave it to King Xin to deal with it. She really doesn't want to deal with her with her.
"Empress, don't leave, don't leave Empress." Zihe suddenly woke up and cried.
Li Yongzhen, who was standing aside, couldn't help but secretly glance at the queen Zhang Yan. This glance was enough to scare him. Zihe was a member of Wei Zhongxian's sect next to the queen. This secret can be guessed for him, a person who was once a confidant. He had also thought of threatening Zihe to help him build a bridge between him and the queen through Zihe's line. But seeing Zihe's plea just now, the queen looked indifferent. He immediately understood that the queen had already known Zihe's identity, but because of the relationship, she handed the person over to Prince Xin to deal with it. As a result, Prince Xin had joined forces with the Queen. After reaching this conclusion, Li Yongzhen felt his scalp numb and his body was sweating coldly.
"Li Yongzhen!"
"I am here." Li Yongzhen couldn't take care of it and thought deeply about the conclusion he had just analyzed, and quickly responded with a low head.
"Zihe, please ask Eunuch Li to take a trip and send someone to the palace to the palace in person." Zhang Yan's powerful words extinguished Zihe's fantasy while still crying, and also pushed Li Yongzhen into a path that could not be turned back.
