Chapter 148: The Emperor's Mission (Part 1)

Facing Sima Qing's inquiry, Princess Changle did not know her true intention and replied: "I was just eighteen years old, how many years younger than me. Aunt, do you think he will dislike me for being old? Will I become old and have a weaker color?"

At this moment, Princess Changle suddenly became worried about her appearance and became sentimental.

"Eighteen years old!"

Sima Qing murmured to herself.

His child, not long after his birthday, was eighteen years old.

His name is Chen Ning, and he was eighteen years old. He knew Xu Qishang and had a relationship with Li Yuanxiao. All kinds of relationships were intertwined, which made Sima Qing unable to help but guess: when Xu Qishang rescued the child, he went to find Li Yuanxiao, and then dressed up as a child from the Shen family in Youzhou, and was able to hide his identity.

That's right, it must be like this!

My own revenge can finally be avenged!

At this moment, Sima Qing believed in her own speculation and she was very excited. Her plan had been buried for more than ten years and finally broke out and could take revenge!

Although she worships Buddha and prays for blessings, she never gave up on taking revenge. She would not let Shen family Zhonglie die in vain, nor would her husband die tragically. He would let the enemies who were about to participate in the design pay all their blood debts.

"Aunt, what's wrong with you?" Changle asked quickly when he saw her in a daze.

Sima Qing came back to her senses and smiled and said, "I remembered what happened after reading the letter. The slightest effort of the past actually gave birth to a talented man with both civil and military skills for the Great Jin Dynasty. I really couldn't imagine that."

Changle did not doubt at all and nodded obediently.

Sima Qing said again: "You sit down first, it's impolite to come and visit me. I'll send you a letter back and you can help your aunt take it back."

"Okay!" Changle responded.

Sima Qing left the main hall and went to the study to write a letter.

A quarter of an hour later, Sima Qing returned and handed the envelope to Changle.

Next, Changle chatted with Sima Qing for a long time before she left.

Sima Qing stood in the courtyard, looking at the deserted environment, she let out a long breath and muttered to herself: "My child, are you okay? The time is here, it's time for you to avenge your father..."

Thinking of this, Sima Qing's thoughts became more and more firm.

When Changle left the palace, he asked someone to invite Chen Ning.

Chen Ning heard the summons and hurried to see him and received the letter.

Open the letter in front of Princess Changle. The book contains beautiful handwriting. Sima Qing's words were calm and she praised Chen Ning. There was no problem on the 3.

But Chen Ning was very excited because he knew that his mother had seen the code words he left behind.

However, Sima Qing did not leave a code word for Chen Ning. He split the contents of the letter from left to right, and tried all the ways to hide code words, but none of them were left.

When Chen Ning was a little disappointed, he suddenly smelled the sour smell of the paper, which was extremely light.

"So that's it!" Chen Ning immediately understood what the code word left by his mother was, but now was not the time to verify it. Chen Ning accompanied Changle and did not express his excitement.

Just as Shen Ning was about to say goodbye and leave, he didn't expect Xu Chongzhi to come.

The purpose of Xu Chong coming straight was very simple. He gave Chen Ning a task to investigate the content of the Eight Kings' secret discussion a few days ago.

"Young Master Chen, this is an important task assigned to you by Your Majesty. If you do it well and do it beautifully, Your Majesty will be happy and will definitely reward Youth Chen. Moreover, with the princess's respect for Youth Chen, she will definitely be able to make a fortune in the future, and it is unlimited! The small Xuzhou will only restrict Youth Xiangyao to rise straight up." Xu Chong said with a smile.

Chen Ning did not expect the emperor to test him with this trick. He immediately thanked Dai Ze. When he took over the task and sent Xu Chongzhi away, Chen Ning did not forget to say: "Eunuch Xu, this is a bill for the villain's Xun Family Trading Company in the imperial capital. It contains 50,000 taels of silver. I am very careful and I don't respect it."

No one would think that the money was small, and the same was true for Xu Chongzhi. He also had his own family, and the 50,000 taels of silver were almost all Chen Ning's possessions.

Chen Ning knew the importance of winning over Xu Chongzhi.

Xu Chong raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect Chen Ning to be so generous in his actions, and his adopted sons did not have the filial piety either.

Only by being willing to give it means deep affection.

"Young Master Chen, our family cannot accept it." Xu Chong refused politely.

Chen Ning said seriously: "The villain admires Eunuch Xu very much. My father-in-law is the guiding light of my life and my mentor. This tuition fee is very small, but it is all my savings. Please forgive me! Please accept it and use it as a tea for normal use!"

After saying that, Chen Ning presented the bill with both hands and couldn't afford it.

Xu Chong laughed loudly, and he became more optimistic about Chen Ning.

"Then our family is not polite. When you find out the secret of the Eight Kings' conversation, our family will advise His Majesty and ask you to go to the palace to report to the saint in person. From now on, we will be our own people." Although Xu Chongzhi is a treacherous person, he knows the principle of using money to do things, and this is a slaughter for him.

Chen Ning thanked him so much that he sent Xu Chongzhi away.

Then, Chen Ning went to Zuixian Tower and met Meng Xingchen and He Xuanwu.

"The princess replied?" Meng Xingchen and He Xuanwu were excited.

Chen Ning nodded and took out the letter.

After the two of them looked at it, He Xuanwu wondered: "I didn't say anything in the letter!"

Meng Xingchen was so smart that he also smelled the ink on the letter, not only the smell of ink, but also the slight sour smell. At this time, Chen Ning had already brought the candle.

Chen Ning took the letter paper and gently baked it on the candle. After a moment, the blank space of the paper revealed the handwriting.

"Write vinegar on paper, and after drying, the handwriting will disappear, so you will smell the sour smell of vinegar. Bake it above the flame and the handwriting will turn brown." Chen Ning explained.

This is a chemical reaction, not a magic trick.

The handwriting was revealed, and the three of them quickly watched:

"See you at Yunzhi Pavilion tomorrow at 3 noon."

The words "touching" made the three of them happy.

"Second uncle and third uncle, you can go with me tomorrow." Chen Ning said excitedly.

Meng Xingchen nodded and said, "Okay! But the princess can't leave the palace. In my opinion, the princess is sending her confidant to the palace."

"It's okay, one day, I will see my mother!" Chen Ning couldn't stop smiling, and found the closest relative. The joy was something that Chen Ning had never felt before.

Next, Chen Ning told the task assigned by Emperor Sima Zhou.

"This time, I have established a relationship with Princess Changle. Sima Zhou must be impressed by me and reuse me. But I finally convinced Jia Xu to cover up the alliance between the Eight Kings. How should I deal with Sima Zhou's task? To tell the truth, but to tell lies?" Chen Ning expressed his inner worries, and he was unsure of his mind.

To be honest, once Sima Zhou knows that the Eight Kings have formed a complete alliance, he will definitely take action.

But if you don’t tell the truth, Chen Ning is afraid that the insult will be revealed in the future.

Meng Xingchen thought about it and said, "You still can't tell the truth. The Eight Kings also know that the alliance is a secret. Once the emperor knows, it will inevitably add fuel to the fire. So in the past few days you will find that the seven kings have started acting and started to create conflicts, just to deceive the emperor. So you can only tell lies, but this lies still have weight. Now the Eight Kings are in a focal position. Maybe in a few months, there will be changes in the process of alliance, and someone will secretly tell the emperor about the alliance. These things are possible."

The Eight Kings alliance hosted by Sima Liang is not as simple as supporting the eight sides in trouble. They signed an alliance, including doing business, mutual assistance and mutual benefit, etc. Of course, these were all Jia Xu's ideas, in order to make the Eight Kings alliance look solid and form a scale so that Emperor Sima Zhou would know about it, and would be deeply afraid that he had to take action.

"How to reply, think of a complete solution." Meng Xingchen didn't have a good idea for the time being.

Chen Ning nodded, there is still time to do this matter.

The next day, at the agreed time, Chen Ning, Meng Xingchen and He Xuanwu came to Yunzhi Pavilion. This was a cloth shop with a huge scale. It is said that they undertake the business of tribute fabrics to the palace and are one of the largest large cloth shops among the imperial capital.

After the three of them arrived on time, they were invited by the shopkeeper of the cloth shop and came to the back house.

Here, the three of them met an old palace maid.

"I dare to ask, Mr. Chen Ning?" the old palace maid asked respectfully.

Chen Ning nodded and said, "It's me!"

The old palace maid immediately knelt down and said, "Palace maid Yunori, pay homage to the young master!"

Because of excitement, she was already crying like rain.

Chen Ning quickly helped her up and said, "Get up and talk!"

Yun Zhi burst into tears. After looking at Chen Ning up and down, he sighed: "General Chen has a spirit in the sky. He can be relieved to see the young master so outstanding. If His Highness can come to see the young master in person, he will definitely cry with joy."

Chen Ning hurriedly asked, "Aunt Yunzhi, you should have followed my mother for many years. Is my mother in good health?"

Yun Zhi nodded and said, "I have taken care of the eldest princess since I was a child. When the princess married General Chen, I also went to the Shen family. After the Shen family suffered, the eldest princess cried and almost cried blind. If she hadn't cared about the young master, she would have to make an accusation for the Shen family. The eldest princess had long followed General Chen. Now the young master is back. The eldest princess was so happy that she didn't sleep all night last night. She ordered the slave to come out early in the morning and wait here. Please rest assured that the eldest princess is very strong."

"That's good!" Chen Ning felt relieved and asked again: "Do you know what your mother has to tell me?"

Yun Zhi replied: "The eldest princess asked me to tell the young master that she was going to admit her mistake to His Majesty. Before, news came from Pengcheng that the son of the Shen family was dead. The eldest princess wanted to take this as an opportunity to ask His Majesty to leave the palace. As long as the eldest princess left the palace, the young master would be able to see the princess."

"That's great! With my mother here, I have a backbone." Chen Ning said happily.

Yun Zhi said again: "The eldest princess also said that this matter will not take long. Your Majesty should be able to do it before his birthday, so that the young master will not be anxious and wait and see what happens."

Chen Ning nodded and replied, "I may enter the palace to meet the saint in a few days. Tell my mother that if you have the chance, you may be able to meet."

Although he knew that his mother would not be out of the palace for too long, Chen Ning couldn't help but want to see her earlier.

Chen Ning had never seen his mother in his previous life. Although he was a time traveler in this life, his life from childhood to adulthood was vivid in my mind with the fusion of memories.

Although Aunt Hong Mian treats Chen Ning meticulously, she is not her mother after all.

Once upon a time, Chen Ning felt that the word mother was too far away from him and could not be called in this life. Unexpectedly, God pityed and protected his mother, and Chen Ning, who had been a human being for two lives, finally had a mother.

mother!

Although it is just a title, some people hide in their chests and have never called it out.
