Chapter 619 Good idea

   "It's absolutely true, the officials dare to risk their lives, the posthumous son of Prince Ting'an is indeed still alive, and he is in our Pingning Prefecture."

   Seeing that Chu Nanzhi refused to believe it, Xing Huan began to talk in detail in a heavy tone: "The next official is under the tutelage of Sir Situ Yang Runchen. Although his family teacher Yang Lao is a high-ranking and powerful person now, there are people who are afraid of him in his life."

Looking intently at Chu Nanzhi who had a calm expression, Xing Huan reminded him almost word by word: "That is the Prince Ting An back then. Ever since he learned that the posthumous son of Prince Ting An was still alive, my teacher almost It’s hard to sleep every night, and when I was released from Beijing many years ago, I told my official to find out the whereabouts of the posthumous child for him.”

  Hearing Yang Runchen's name, Chu Nanzhi couldn't help muttering.

   Isn't that Wu Enrong's father-in-law, the head of Jingling's old ministers, and the head of Nandu Wang Lin Tingkai's good confidant adviser?

   Didn't expect him to have such a student who is greedy for life and afraid of death, who would give up everything just to survive.

  But after thinking about it, this guy probably didn't know that Lin Jinxiao was the posthumous son, so he dared to mention it to him so frankly.

  Looking at the unsuspecting Xing Huan, Chu Nanzhi pretended to be surprised and asked, "Then, did Governor Xing find the rumored posthumous son of the former crown prince?"

   "Never."

Xing Huan shook his head dejectedly, and when he raised his eyes, his eyes suddenly lit up again: "However, I dare to conclude that my teacher must have found this person. When I went to Beijing to report on my duties at the end of last year, I discussed this matter with my teacher. , he showed a very indifferent attitude, although his teacher didn't say it clearly, he transferred his adoptive son Xiao Dingfang from the north to the Pingning County garrison camp at the beginning of the year."

   "Xiao Dingfang?"

  Chu Nanzhi was very unfamiliar with this name.

   "The princess may not know this person, but the imperial concubine should be very aware of the illustrious name of Chen Chuan, the school lieutenant of the palace."

  Xing Huan explained: "Xiao Dingbian is the two most feared generals in the northern garrison who are as famous as General Chen Chuan. Wherever they go, no grass grows, and they are famous for killing people like hemp."

"I see."

  Chu Nanzhi suddenly realized.

  She has seen Chen Chuan's ruthlessness before, as long as he is given a knife, he can cut a **** path through thousands of troops.

   "Xiao Dingfang is the most powerful confidant of the family teacher, and he is also the most loyal soldier supported by the Yang family. The reason why Mr. Yang transferred this person from the North to the Pingning Prefecture garrison must be to perform the most important task."

Xing Huan half-closed his eyes, and analyzed seriously: "The princess should know that Mr. Yang and Jingling's old ministers have always supported Nandu King, hoping that His Majesty can make Nandu King the emperor's uncle, but His Majesty has been reluctant. I'm afraid it can only be because of the posthumous child."

   "Yes, if this posthumous child is really alive, it will endanger not only the Nandu King, but also the other princes who want to seize the throne. Naturally, we must try to get rid of him."

  Chu Nanzhi let out a long breath, it seems that this matter is no longer a secret.

  “This is indeed a threat, but it is also an opportunity.”

   Xing Huan's thick eyebrows trembled slightly and gradually stretched out: "If Your Highness can find this posthumous son, it's up to His Highness to decide whether to kill or keep him."

At this point, he changed the subject abruptly, and sincerely suggested: "However, I suggest that you keep this person. You can coerce His Majesty and the Empress Dowager to appoint this person as the emperor's younger brother. Afterwards, His Highness will personally **** this person to Beijing. Entering Jingling City, after the overall situation is stable, you can let this posthumous son Zen sit under His Highness, so the name is justified, and it will come naturally."

"good idea."

  Chu Nanzhi smiled knowingly: "It's just that where is this posthumous son now, does Prefect Xing have an idea?"

Xing Huan sighed blankly: "I really don't know about this matter, but according to what I think, Mr. Yang is willing to assist the concubine and His Royal Highness to achieve this wish. Right now, the Third Highness, the King of Nandu, has lost power, and the King of Beibin The power is too weak, King Qinghe is surrounded by countless powerful advisers, only King Pingning can continue to reuse the Yang family after he takes over Jingling City, and he can also get rid of his serious troubles for the old man."

Looking at Chu Nanzhi solemnly, Xing Huan pleaded respectfully: "If the princess can help this official out of the sea of ​​suffering this time, the official is willing to be a lobbyist and persuade Mr. Yang to support His Highness King Pingning. , when the overall situation is certain, even though King Qinghe has thousands of troops, he will not dare to go east easily."

   "Well, I will discuss this matter with His Royal Highness."

  Chu Nan Zhi smiled at him and bowed to him: "Master Taishou, stay in the prison well, and I will definitely rescue you."

   "The next official is here to wait for the good news, and I hope the princess will not break her promise."

Xing Huan solemnly reminded: "Even if it is for the great cause of the princess and her highness, as long as she can help her enter Jingling City, the princess can be regarded as the number one hero at that time, and a mere Princess Yuanxi will no longer pose any threat to the princess. .”

   "I have written it down."

   After saying that, Chu Nanzhi turned and left.

  After walking a few steps, she suddenly turned her head and smiled at Xing Huan who was full of expectations: "Thank you, Lord Prefect, for giving me the horse."

  If what Xing Huan said is true, then the chief envoy of the tax and bank case was assassinated in Duanlong Mountain, and all of this cannot be separated from Situ Yang Runchen and his confidant Xiao Dingfang.

  Combining with Lin Jinxiao's deduction at the beginning, the assassin came from the army, so it is more consistent.

  And the Princess Luochu of Nanhuaguan would rather die than guard the Southern Capital Wang Lin Tingkai behind the scenes, which is also reasonable.

  After all, they all want to regain the foundation of Emperor Chonghua.

   What puzzled Chu Nanzhi was that she had dealt with that Uncle Three Emperors many times, until he lost power and was escorted to Beijing, but she had never noticed any information about it from him.

  I always feel that this person doesn't know about Lin Jinxiao's background, otherwise he wouldn't be fighting against Lin Jinxiao everywhere, and would only regard him as an unpopular clan in Luyan Port to be contemptuous and dismissive.

Both Lin Tingkai and Lin Tingyan were raised in the Empress Dowager's palace since they were young. If they knew Lin Jinxiao's background, even if they wanted to get rid of him quickly, they should pretend to be respectful on the surface. Only in this way could they win over the Empress Dowager and The favor of the gang of Jingling old officials behind them.

   "Not quite right."

Walking out of the dungeon, Chu Nanzhi suddenly stopped, looked at the setting sun, and murmured to himself: "As the confidant of the King of Nandu, Yang Runchen, why didn't he tell Lin Tingkai about such an important matter? He shouldn't be blinded." In the drum."

   "Princess, but that prefect Xing offended you with his harsh words?"

  Looking at Chu Nanzhi with a sluggish face, Tang Weiming couldn't help but cautiously said with concern.

  Hearing the voice, Chu Nanzhi turned her head, only to find that everyone was already waiting around, waiting for her order.

  Chu Nanzhi shook his head lightly, turned to Guan Erbai who was at the side, and said in a cold voice: "Guan Si Prison, from today onwards, no one is allowed to approach Prefect Xing except this Palace."

  Guan Erbai frowned in confusion: "Then what if His Highness personally comes to interrogate Prefect Xing?"

  Chu Nanzhi thought for a while, then pursed her lips and smiled slightly: "Your Highness will not come here."
