Chapter 290 What the hell? !
You could hear a pin drop in the room.
The officials present looked at each other, and then all turned their eyes to Emperor Mingze who was sitting in front of the window.
The moonlight was like a silver thread, shining through the window lattice paper directly onto Jiang Yanchuan's body, casting a dark silhouette on the ground.
His face seemed to be hidden in the darkness. People couldn't see his complexion clearly, but they all felt inexplicably...
This young emperor, who was usually decisive in killing people, now seemed to be feeling a little guilty.
The sound of footsteps came closer and closer, and finally stopped outside the door.
【Um?】
【Why is there no sound inside? 】
[This should be the right place, right?! ]
Gu Ruizhou glanced at everyone's faces with a puzzled look, and when no one answered, he opened his mouth to respond -
Among the officials present, several of them kept their eyes on Gu Ruizhou. Their scalps went numb when they saw him and they immediately rushed over!
“Have—mmmm??”
The others reacted quickly upon seeing this, and they all shoved him into the closet in the corner.
Guide General Lei Zhixin felt particularly uneasy, frowned and thought for a moment, then squeezed in.
【Ah! There’s a sound!!】
The space inside the cabinet was extremely small. Two grown men stood shoulder to shoulder inside. It was crowded, stuffy, and...
I have no idea.
Gu Ruizhou looked confused.
Just now...
Isn't that the little guy's voice? !
Emperor Mingze spoiled the little girl so much in the daytime, but now no one even opens the door for her? !
Amidst the doubts, the young man's voice rang out again.
"Father, Father, are you in there, Father?!"
There was a long pause between the two voices. Gu Ruizhou guessed that the young man must have been leaning against the door and listening for a while. After confirming that there was someone inside, he opened his mouth to ask.
Suddenly, Gu Ruizhou finally realized something was wrong!
Although the timbre of the young man's voices before and after were the same, the first few sounds seemed to echo directly in his mind, clear, bright and crisp.
The last sound was faint, distant, and unusually obvious as if it was coming through a barrier.
He suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of Lei Zhixin beside him, but all he saw was darkness.
"Don't make any noise, we'll talk later." Lei Zhixin said briefly, almost in a whisper.
The nervousness in Lei Zhixin's voice was too obvious. Although Gu Ruizhou didn't understand what he meant, he subconsciously held his breath and listened attentively to what was happening outside.
Just at this moment, a crisp "creak" sound came from outside the door.
The moonlight was very bright tonight, and Jiang Yingcheng could see the scene clearly the moment he entered the door.
Her angry expression froze and she greeted the uncles very obediently.
Looks like a very sensible person, but actually——
[While Cheng Cheng is asleep, I will snatch my father from him!!]
Qingliu at the scene: "..."
Jiang Yanchuan: “…”
Everyone was afraid to even breathe, fearing that the little girl would be unhappy and run back to ask her "Tong Ge" to check the information -
If what happened tonight was revealed exactly in front of the little guy, their biggest secret would no longer be hidden!
In the silence, Jiang Yingcheng looked straight at the closet in the corner: [Chengcheng seemed to hear the sound of the closet door closing just now...]
A group of clear streams felt their scalps tingling: Hiss! !
Minister of Rites Chu Jiaxu quickly spoke: "Young Prince, we can discuss with His Majesty for a while and finish the important matters. Why don't you go back and wait first?
Jiang Yingcheng nodded blankly: "Oh oh oh, then——"
【Brother Tong, Brother Tong, what are they discussing——】?
"Your Highness!" The Minister of Personnel Chu Dong suddenly raised his voice and secretly kicked Chu Jiaxu, his voice concerned, "It's so dark outside, why did you run out by yourself?!"
The conversation with 007 was interrupted by this voice, but Jiang Yingcheng was very happy.
She had been waiting for an opportunity to complain, and now someone finally brought the stage to her!
"Father, Father told Chengcheng before he fell asleep that he would stay with Chengcheng all day!"
But she had just fallen asleep for a short while, and when she woke up, she found that her handsome father was gone!
After the complaint, the topic suddenly changed: "So what are the uncles talking about? Is it urgent?"
She had clearly checked the world line before setting out, so nothing major should have happened during this period of time!
The topic that they had tried so hard to change was brought back so easily. Everyone looked at the boy's eyes full of curiosity and for a moment, they didn't know how to start the conversation.
In the tense atmosphere, Jiang Yanchuan suddenly spoke: "Chengcheng."
"Come to Father."
Jiang Yingcheng turned his head suddenly, his eyes sparkling in the moonlight: "Okay!"
She opened her arms and, like a sugar glider, she took a "tick-tick" step towards her handsome father with her short legs.
Jiang Yanchuan took advantage of the situation and held her in his arms.
"Lu Yao sent a secret report to the emperor today," he casually fished out the "excuse" he had prepared in advance from his sleeve, "the matter happened suddenly, so the emperor had an urgent discussion with your uncles."
Jiang Yingcheng was always very easy to coax when she was in the arms of her handsome father. Hearing this, she no longer bothered about the previous problem and honestly took out a small snack: "Then father, you guys say, Chengcheng will wait for you here~"
Jiang Yanchuan: "Already——"
[Brother Tong, Brother Tong, what did Uncle Lu say in the secret letter?! ]
Jiang Yanchuan didn't have time to say the word "end" as it rolled over his tongue before he swallowed it back.
Lu Yao mentioned in the secret letter that Chi Yimian, the noble concubine of Yishui Kingdom who intended to murder Jiang Yingcheng on the New Year's Day banquet, woke up halfway and said that she knew a shocking secret and wanted to exchange it for the antidote.
——Before leaving, the young man gave her a drug that could delay the effects of the poison, so that Lu Yao could get more information from her.
Lu Yao said in the letter that he was "greatly shocked" and "at a loss" after hearing the secret. He could only gallop on his horse as soon as he got the news, in order to rush there in person as quickly as possible to listen to his "teachings."
The letter paper seems to be filled with dense handwriting, but in fact there is only one thought throughout the whole letter:
He is coming.
When the ministers saw that Emperor Mingze had prepared this back-up plan, they all felt relieved.
The joy gradually crept up on me——
【hold head high?】
[Chi Yimian, she wanted to use the news that Zhu Jinguo was hiding his strength and preparing to deal with Da Rui in exchange for the antidote?!]
That's it?!
She already knew this, okay?
Jiang Yingcheng glanced at it and then looked away, secretly deciding to add another note when he returned, so that this would not be regarded as a prank.
[Cheng Cheng not only knows that Zhu Jin State wants to deal with Da Rui, but also knows that the King of Zhu Jin State has already established contact with Prince Xin at the New Year's Day banquet. The two are preparing to——]
“Boom—”
A sudden muffled sound from the corner of the wall interrupted Jiang Yingcheng's thoughts. For a moment, everyone's eyes turned to the closet in the corner!
Jiang Yingcheng trembled unconsciously.
【Wha, what the hell? ! 】
