Chapter 335 Fire Phoenix Ancestor Minister
Lin stepped forward, rubbing his eyes again and again. Damn!
He was not mistaken.
It was really Emperor Jiaoyang.
Wasn't Emperor Jiaoyang imprisoned in a side hall? Or was he brought there personally?
How did she suddenly appear in his inner room? When did she come? Did this girl hear what he and the national teacher Tianlin just said?
Could she understand it?
Can a one-and-a-half-year-old child understand the plots between adults?
Minister Lin's mind was in a thousand turns in an instant, and he had already thought of several questions in his head.
"You..."
"I'm hungry..." A Bao rubbed his little belly, which was flat. He had never been so hungry in his life.
Minister Lin gnashed his teeth and said, "When did you run out of the palace? How did you get to my house! No, you got to my room!"
A Bao pointed at the wall, "From here."
Minister Lin's heart skipped a beat. Oh no!
He forgot that there was a secret passage in the side hall.
The side hall was where the imperial concubine lived. Last year, the imperial concubine was ill. The side hall was too gloomy. Under the order of the emperor, the imperial concubine moved to the palace next door. The side hall was left idle. Over time, it became an empty hall.
The prime minister's wife asked doubtfully, "Did you come out of the palace?"
A Bao nodded his head, "Yes, yes."
"Master, how is our prime minister's mansion connected to the palace?"
[This lady is not very smart, of course your husband is secretly communicating with someone in the palace and is secretly giving and receiving things.]
"He's not connected with the palace, he's connected with the royal concubine." A Bao said in a baby voice.
The prime minister's wife's face changed, "Master, what's going on?"
"Oh, of course it's because of your master and the imperial concubine..."
"Madam, please keep your voice down, be careful that there are ears on the other side of the wall." Prime Minister Lin hurriedly interrupted A Bao's words, "This matter is really a secret. It concerns the country, the world, and the secrets of the Fire Kingdom."
[Alas, this Prime Minister Lin has begun to deceive the prime minister's wife]
"This secret passage was specially authorized by His Majesty the Emperor to build it, so that I could find a secret passage and transmit some confidential matters to the emperor alone." Prime Minister Lin said with an embarrassed look on his face, "I just never thought that now that you have discovered it, you are still making it public. If this gets out and is used by colleagues, I can't explain it even with ten mouths."
"What is there to be unclear about? Since it was the emperor who ordered it, he will definitely stand up and explain it clearly for the prime minister's mansion."
"Madam, you are still short-sighted. The emperor is the ruler of a country. Since the secret passage is a secret, he certainly doesn't want others to know about it.
Once the matter is exposed, will the emperor take the blame for his subjects? He is the emperor!"
The prime minister's wife wanted to ask something else, but Prime Minister Lin became a little impatient, "Madam, as a woman, you should not participate in the affairs of the court. Go to the backyard and see if our son has come out. I have to deal with the matter immediately. You also know that the matter of this little princess is the top priority of the Fire Country at present."
Prime Minister Lin called the housekeeper and took the prime minister's wife away.
Prime Minister Lin wiped the cold sweat from his head. He was not afraid of the prime minister's wife.
The main thing is... if his wife knows about his adultery with the imperial concubine, it will definitely be reported to the court. If the emperor finds out, he will be dead.
"You are a liar." A Bao flirted with her little feet, "You and the imperial concubine stole... money, and deceived your own wife, you are a big liar!"
Stealing money?
Prime Minister Lin thought about it, could it be that Emperor Jiaoyang was talking about... having an affair? It's
just that this little girl is young and her words are not clear.
How did she know about him and the imperial concubine!
Prime Minister Lin looked sinister, "Emperor Jiaoyang, now that you have discovered my secret, I..."
You can't stay.
"You dare not kill me, hehe." A Bao grinned.
Prime Minister Lin narrowed his eyes gloomily. He did have murderous intentions towards Emperor Jiaoyang just now, but then he thought, why didn't Emperor Zi'an follow him?
The two of them were obviously under house arrest together.
Could it be that Emperor Zi'an was keeping watch for the little girl in the palace?
If something happened to the girl, and Emperor Zi'an made a scene in the palace? ? ?
By then, the news that the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Imperial Concubine's bedroom were connected by a secret passage would spread in the palace.
The old emperor was suspicious and ruthless, and it would definitely be disadvantageous to him.
In a short while, Prime Minister Lin had an idea in his mind.
He smiled, "Don't be afraid, little princess. Who said I would kill you? You are so cute, how could I bear to kill you? Come on, tell me, how did you know there is a secret passage here?"
A Bao snorted, "I know a lot of things."
"What else do you know?"
"You and the Imperial Concubine last night..."
Prime Minister Lin's old legs trembled, "Don't say it, don't say it."
Since the old emperor was paralyzed in bed, the Imperial Concubine would go to the palace occasionally during the day to visit him, and at night, she would enter the Prime Minister's Mansion through the secret passage. She came every night. The two of them had a separate secret room, and they were inseparable. If the old emperor
knew about this, not to mention the Prime Minister's Mansion that was a hundred years old, even the thousand-year-old Prime Minister's Mansion would not be able to be preserved.
"Butler! Butler!" Prime Minister Lin called the old butler over anxiously, "Hurry up and go to the Imperial Master's Mansion to ask the Imperial Master to come over, and say..."
Prime Minister Lin gave a few instructions.
Stabilize Emperor Jiaoyang.
When the Imperial Master comes, let him find a way to completely conceal the mechanisms in the palace and the Prime Minister's Mansion, and then he will destroy the body of Emperor Jiaoyang.
By then, even if Emperor Zi'an goes out of the palace to call for help, the secret passages will be destroyed, the mechanisms will be covered up, and no one will be able to find any clues.
"The little princess just said...you are hungry?"
A Bao looked obedient, "Yes, yes, I am very hungry."
Prime Minister Lin's eyes rolled. It would be very easy to destroy the body of such a little girl.
This girl obviously knows a lot of his secrets, so she must be silenced!
"Little princess, you've come to the right place. There's a place in our prime minister's mansion that's full of delicious food."
"I know." A Bao waved his hands, looking like a prophet.
"I'm not talking about the kitchen."
"I know."
Prime Minister Lin: ?
This girl wouldn't know about the fire phoenix, the family beast of their Lin Mansion, right?
Prime Minister Lin frowned and quickly denied it. The little princess must have used a secret passage to guess what happened between him and the imperial concubine, but the little princess had never seen the fire phoenix, the family beast.
Prime Minister Lin continued to deceive, "That wonderful place is full of meat."
"Roasted chicken legs? Roasted duck? Sweet and sour pork ribs?"
"Yes, yes, yes, we have everything. As long as the little princess goes with me, you can have whatever you want to eat. I guarantee that the little princess will be full. To be honest, the water in there is all natural spring water.
You know the spring water, it comes from the snow-capped mountains, and it is comparable to the legendary spiritual water. It's so sweet." Prime Minister Lin was like a big bad wolf coaxing Little Red Riding Hood.
"Let's go." Po jumped down from the table.
Prime Minister Lin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and a trace of calculation flashed in his eyes.
Little fool!
How can you have a brain when you haven't even grown all your teeth?
Look, after a few words of coaxing, she followed him obediently.
