  Chapter 629 Treacherous and cunning

   "Since Director Hai is unwilling to reveal the truth, why not let Ben Gong guess."

Chu Nanzhi stood up slowly, and walked towards the stables with small steps: "Director Hai is the closest person to the Empress Dowager, and he has served her for many years. It is not easy for her to let you out of the palace. Serving and taking care of His Highness is so simple, it must have explained the things that only Director Hai can do for her old man."

   "Why did the princess make such a statement?"

  Haida asked in surprise.

   "This matter is not difficult to guess."

  Chu Nanzhi picked up the bale of hay and threw it into the stable, saying in detail:

"I have always been puzzled by His Highness's rapid promotion. You said that His Highness has been hiding in the village for twenty-two years. Even when he came to Beijing as an official, he was never appreciated and summoned by the Empress Dowager and His Majesty. After the tax and bank case, all these calms came to an abrupt end, and the situation changed drastically?"

   "Naturally, it is because of His Highness that he has known people, and he is also the leader of the Lin clan in Luyan Port."

  Hai Da'a replied unhurriedly: "Now the imperial court is employing people. Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager need someone like His Highness who can command the heroes to rise up and protect the southern border."

   "Hey, Director Hai, we are all our own people, why bother to say such polite words."

Chu Nanzhi turned her head, blinked playfully and smiled at him: "You know many things and I know them too, but Your Highness doesn't, that's why I called you here to say, if Director Hai still wants to Go around in circles with me, then we can only go to His Highness to reason."

   "It can't be done, absolutely can't be done."

  Ah Haida was so anxious that his gray and thin eyebrows trembled: "What does the princess have to say, but this old slave says it's all right, and I will never dare to deceive the princess again."

   "This is Director Hai whom I respect."

Chu Nanzhi nodded in satisfaction, and continued to analyze: "A few days ago when Taiwei Yin came here, when I and the two benefactors mentioned His Highness's life experience to him, they all realized that the matter of the late prince's posthumous son had been leaked. Wind, I'm afraid that even the Empress Dowager doesn't know who did it?"

   Hai Da, who has always been cautious, did not answer this time in silence.

"His Royal Highness was almost framed by someone in the tax and silver case, and his family was ransacked, and then he was assassinated in Duanlong Mountain. The Empress Dowager and Taiwei Yin couldn't find out who was trying to harm His Highness. They were anxious, so they had to fight against everyone's opinions. , Promote him quickly at the risk of exposing His Highness's identity, only in this way can His Highness have the ability to protect himself."

   At this point, Chu Nanzhi raised his eyes to stare at him, and asked casually: "I don't know if Director Hai thinks what I said is true or not?"

  Haida gritted his teeth and nodded silently.

   "It wasn't until news of Xiao Dingfang's death reached the city this morning that Director Hai suddenly realized that the people who wanted to harm His Highness were Xiao Dingfang and Na Yang Situ."

  Chu Nanzhi turned her head away, while feeding the horse leisurely and comfortably, she continued to explain his doubts:

"Hey, this Yang Situ is probably very powerful. He was able to escape from the tragedy of the year and still get the respect of the Empress Dowager and His Majesty. Even Xing Huan, who has been doing evil in Funing County for many years, the last There are quite a few officials involved in the Haikang County case, but he was able to secure his position as Sheriff of Funing County as peacefully as Mount Tai, and he couldn't do without the protection of Yang Situ."

   "The old ancestor is also helpless."

Hai Da'a burst into tears suddenly, crying as sadly as a child: "If it wasn't for balancing the political situation back then and preventing those Qinghe dignitaries from monopolizing the power, how could the ancestors endure this anger and continue to rely on Yang Runchen? Dang, this is just an expedient measure, I only hope that the princess and His Highness can understand the painstaking efforts of our ancestors."

   "The empress dowager's move is naturally a safe move. Although Qinghe dignitaries are quite powerful in the court, they can't cover the sky with one hand. This is all due to her old man's original plan."

  After the words fell, Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but sighed sadly: "It's just that she never thought that Yang Situ not only failed to repay the favor, but supported the King of Nandu, and even secretly wanted to attack His Highness."

   "Who says no, this man is ambitious. He instigated the kings to frame the prince, and now he wants to attack His Highness King Pingning. He really owes the respect of his ancestors."

Haida's indignation choked up again and said: "This old slave is incompetent, he can't share the worries of our ancestors, he can't kill this traitor, but the situation is unstable now, His Highness's life experience must not be revealed, Xing Huan was just released from prison yesterday, Xiao Dingfang committed suicide In the army, the princess is more aware of the reason than the old slave, and the old slave can only get rid of this person for the ancestor."

Saying so, Hai Da'a bent his old knees and knelt down, and confessed without a sound: "This old slave knows that he is guilty and is willing to be punished. I also hope that the princess will put the overall situation first and keep this secret for the time being. Don't draw me to death for Your Highness." disaster."

   "Director Hai, please get up."

  Chu Nanzhi looked at him with such grief and indignation, and felt very sad in his heart. He helped him to sit back on the stone bench, and persuaded him earnestly:

"I don't know the loyalty of Director Hai, how can I not understand the painstaking efforts of the Empress Dowager and her old man, His Highness is jealous of evil, if he finds out about his life, he will rush to Beijing to avenge his father-in-law and loyal ministers and generals, let alone King Qinghe now The momentum is menacing, and he wants to advance eastward, if he finds out about His Highness's life experience, he might not be able to hold back for a moment, and he will immediately point his troops at Jingling City."

   "The concubine is extremely intelligent and full of strategic strategies. You can see the power of it at a glance. This old slave really admires it."

  Haida wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, nodded in relief and said: "If the ancestors know that the princess is so far-sighted, they can sleep soundly."

"Looking at the current situation, Yang Situ would rather let Xiao Dingfang commit suicide than expose His Highness's secrets. It can be seen that he is also afraid of this matter, and only dares to frame His Highness secretly, so we can pretend that we don't know about it, and don't go there again. As for how to explain Xiao Dingfang's death, I have just explained to Kang Xiu that the two deaths are purely coincidental, although it is not convincing, but it is the official conclusion after all, and no one dares to question it."

  Chu Nanzhi smiled secretly, the reason was indeed absurd, but as long as Yang Runchen didn't commit suicide, it would still only become a secret matter tacitly understood by everyone.

Hai Da agreed and nodded: "What the concubine said just now, the old slave has been mentioned by Kang Sili, it is indeed a safe way. Now that the king of Nandu has lost power, even if Yang Situ is not reconciled, he dare not expose His Highness's life experience. After all, there are still many people in this world who are still thinking of the former prince's virtuous name. Once they know that His Royal Highness's flesh and blood is still alive, they will definitely come to follow him. For the benefit of the fisherman, I am afraid that the first to be slaughtered is the old minister of Jingling."

   "Exactly."

Chu Nanzhi suddenly looked at Hai Da'a curiously, and jokingly said with a smile: "Director Hai is so self-effacing that he can get rid of Xing Huan in the prison of the state capital without anyone noticing. I know how Chief Hai did it."

   "It's not difficult."

  Haida Lao Shen gradually showed a treacherous smile on his face:

"To be honest, this old slave came here just to find out the secrets of His Highness for our ancestors, and to get rid of the disaster. Corruption has been going on for a long time, and His Highness will definitely punish corrupt officials drastically after taking office.

But this state capital still has the influence of the Tang family after all, those punished officials will definitely try their best to survive when they have nowhere to go, so the old slave has planted some eyeliners in the state capital prison in advance, and learned yesterday Xing Huan secretly begged to see the princess, and today Xiao Dingfang died in the army. The old slave thought that there were not many things that Xing Huan could do with the princess, and probably only His Royal Highness's background. "

"I see."

  Chu Nanzhi heaved a sigh of relief, this old eunuch's city mansion is not as deep as usual, it is not an exaggeration to describe him as treacherous and cunning.

  If it weren't for my old lady who is still smart, I really can't play with him.
