Liu Yue was surprised when she heard Ji Wu Jiu asked Ji Li You, "Master, who are you talking about? I have never heard of Ji Li You."
“Don’t you know him?” Ji Wu Jiu raised his eyelids and glanced at Liu Yue, which made her heart skip a beat, “Or maybe he is Li You, and you already know him?”
Liu Yue looked sad, her voice was soft and soft, and she said calmly, "Master, I don't understand what you are talking about. I have always abided by the law. You... think you have arrested the wrong person? Master, he is a good person at first sight. Please, please Find out the truth quickly and let me go back. This place is very scary."
Her eyes were red and tears were welling up in her eyes. She looked so pitiful that a normal man would feel pity for her when he saw her. Ji Wu Jiu didn't accept her behavior. He raised his calf slightly, tapped lightly on his foot, and pushed away Liu Yue who was about to lean forward and move forward. The latter didn't expect him to do this, and was pushed back to sit down, with her **** hitting the ground heavily. This time her tears fell smoothly.
"If I hadn't found out the truth, I wouldn't have invited you here," Ji Wu Jiu sat up straight and said slowly, "I had a doubt from the beginning. Da Qi's national fortunes are prosperous and its border cities are strong. What kind of drug did the Jurchens, Tatars, and Turpan take to make them decide to attack Daqi together? After thinking about it, there is only one reason. It must be that someone promised them great benefits and gave them enough confidence. Such a person will not be an outsider, but a traitor. And he is not an ordinary traitor. He must have some connections with the royal family and be qualified to be emperor in the future. Don't you think so?"
Liu Yue lowered her head and said, "Sir, I don't understand."
Ji Wu Jiu thought to himself and said, "In the past, when the palace was in turmoil, the prince gave way. The prince's son, who was only three years old at the time, accidentally died in the palace chaos. In fact, a three-year-old child may not be able to survive unless he is closely guarded by someone. You can recognize him, so it's not difficult to switch the bag. The child's name is Ji Liyou. After being rescued, he lived incognito among the people. Now he has grown up and wants to shake things up. You first try to bribe him. The guards in the palace, or maybe the guards are with you. You use the name of the women in the palace to compete for favors and assassinate the emperor. If you succeed, Ji Liyou can receive a great treasure in the name of royal blood. If you fail, you can also be rejected. When it reaches the palace concubine’s head, no one can notice it.”
Liu Yue lowered her head, her eyes rolling around. Ji Wu Jiu glanced at her and continued, "Actually, there are not many opportunities to assassinate the emperor. The palace is heavily guarded, and the emperor is accompanied by experts when he travels. You don't dare to act rashly, for fear of exposing the enemy. But you can't assassinate him. It doesn't matter, Ji Liyou has been planning another plan. He wants to ask the barbarians outside the pass to help him in his rebellion, and promises to send money and land after the success. Therefore, he will appear in Jizhou when the war is about to start, and will also appear in Jizhou when the war is about to start. The Jurchens appeared in his army when they were fleeing to the west. It's just that he underestimated the true combat effectiveness of Da Qi's army, so he was defeated because his plan could not be implemented." When he said this, Ji Wu Jiu thought of Ye Zhen Zhen. The Da Qi army was invincible this time, thanks to the skillful use of firearms, among which Ye Zhenzhen naturally took the greatest credit. Well, I must reward her well when I get back.
"The young master's story is very nice, but I don't know why you want to tell it to me? I am just a woman in the world, and I am not very interested in these grudges about my family and my country."
"I'll say it again, I won't arrest you if I don't have complete evidence. I don't need you to confess anything else now. You just need to tell me where Ji Liyou is. Tell me, and maybe you can leave a note. If you don't tell me about your life, you probably won't die, but I have a way to make your life worse than death." Ji Wu Jiu said, stood up, stopped looking at her, and walked straight out.
Liu Yue stood behind him and raised her arms. Silver light flashed from her sleeves, and three silver needles flew out, aiming towards the back of Ji Wu Jiu's head and vest. Ji Wu Jiu reacted very quickly, put down a little step, and used the force to turn over. Liu Yue's eyes flashed, and he was close to her. There was a tinkling sound in my ears, which was the sound of a silver needle hitting the iron railing.
Ji Wu Jiu had no idea of mercy and kicked Liu Yue in the face. The latter was hit hard and fell backwards. Her head hit the iron bed, and her vision went dark again. Ji Wu Jiu stepped forward and put his foot on her neck, raising his voice and shouting, "Here comes someone."
A cell leader led several jailers and quickly arrived and said respectfully, "Sir, what are your orders?"
"Put her into prison clothes and be sure to pick off all the pieces on her body."
"Yes." The prison head nodded and responded, looking at the people on the ground with bright eyes.
"Also, treat her well...don't kill her."
"Yes, yes...that," the cell leader asked hesitantly, "can I entertain you in any way?"
"What do you think?" Ji Wu Jiu gently nudged Liu Yue's chin with his foot.
The cell leader didn't know who he was talking to, so he wasn't lying. Liu Yue, who was on the ground, looked pale. She weakly supported Ji Wu Jiu's feet, "Please, don't..."
Ji Wu Jiu put more strength on his feet and said, "I will only give you three days to think about it. Don't wait until it's too late."
***
After returning to the palace from the Ministry of Justice, Ji Wu Jiu planned to tell Ye Zhenzhen about Li You’s true identity, but when he thought about the matter, there was no result yet, and it involved the grudges of the previous generation, and it was very likely that he would be involved in the court. There are other things involved, so there is no rush at this moment. It won't be too late to talk to her when we see the truth.
He and Ye Zhenzhen have other things to be busy with these days. The peace delegations from the Three Kingdoms arrived in Beijing one after another. Although they were entertained by the Ministry of Rites, as the emperor, they had to receive them repeatedly. Moreover, he still needed to know more about Li You's collusion with foreign countries and his intention to rebel, so he was particularly concerned.
The Tatar and Jurchen missions arrived on the same day. Turpan Khan arrived two days late due to the long journey. After the envoys from the three countries arrived, Ji Wu Jiu held a banquet in honor of them. Those in the harem who are of rank four or above can also participate in the state banquet. Of course, the only one who can sit next to the emperor is the queen.
Since we are here to seek peace, we must give you some gifts. The things donated by the three kingdoms have been submitted to the Ministry of Rites for registration and registration. However, things can be registered, but living people cannot.
When two countries are at war, it is not unusual for the defeated country to send women to the victorious country. During this peace negotiation, the three kingdoms all selected beautiful women to present to Ji Wu Jiu, and also selected noble-born women from their clans to bring to him for marriage. Those beauties can be given away easily, but the married women cannot be given away casually. Ji Wu Jiu didn't think much about it, and gave the two princesses and the princess to Zhaoyi the title of Zhaoyi respectively, and placed them in the palace. Anyway, there are enough women in the palace, and a few more are not too much.
Although Ye Zhenzhen felt unhappy, considering the emperor's face, she didn't say anything.
It is summer at this time, and the lotus flowers in Taiye Pond are in bloom. Ye Zhenzhen wanted to appreciate the lotus, so Ji Wu Jiu and her went to Bixin Pavilion hand in hand. Taiye Pond is sparkling blue, the surface of the lake is as smooth as a mirror, and the warm wind carries the fragrance of lotus softly, like the hands of a beauty brushing across the cheek, making people feel relaxed and happy. Ye Zhenzhen walked down from the pavilion, looking at the red lotus flowers reflecting the sun in the pond, and wanted to row a boat over to get closer. Ji Wu Jiu also thought that it would be very interesting to get close to her among the green leaves and red flowers, so he called for people to row a boat.
After giving the instructions, I looked into the distance and saw someone walking slowly on lotus flowers not far away. Ji Wu Jiu thought his eyes were dazzled, but when he looked more closely, it was indeed the case. It was a woman, wearing a pink dress, whose face could not be seen clearly from a distance. There were many lotus flowers gathered at her feet, some red, some white, some yellow. The patch of lotus flowers was several feet wide, supporting her as she moved forward slowly, as if she were a fairy in Lingbo.
Ye Zhenzhen looked a little dumbfounded and opened her mouth unconsciously. Ji Wu Jiu turned his head and saw her like this, and raised his hand to help her lift her chin in a funny way.
The person gradually approached, and Ye Zhenzhen saw her face clearly. She was the princess sent by Turpan for marriage. Everyone in the palace called her Hua Zhaoyi. This person has high eyebrows and deep eyes, a high nose bridge, and although his mouth is larger than that of the Central Plains woman, his lips are plump, which matches her face shape, eyes and nose, and complements each other perfectly. The most valuable thing is her fair and delicate skin, which is more beautiful than fine white glazed porcelain.
In short, this is a great beauty, and a great beauty with an exotic style.
When Ji Wu Jiu saw the pile of flowers approaching, he realized that there was a raft underneath. The bamboo raft was thin and more than half of it was submerged in the water. It was covered with flowers. From a distance, it looked like the people on the boat were stepping on them. Flowers are coming. This Taiye Pond is a living water that goes in and out. Her raft follows the direction of the current, so she can move forward without rowing.
I see, that's quite interesting.
Hua Zhaoyi got off the bamboo raft, Shi Shiran saluted Ji Wu Jiu and Ye Zhen Zhen, and said in unskilled Central Plains dialect, "See you, Your Majesty, the Queen."
Ji Wu Jiu said, "Pingshen, raise your head."
Hua Zhaoyi raised her head and looked at Ji Wu Jiu with wide eyes.
Men, although their hearts are occupied, their eyes are still full. Seeing how beautiful this woman was, Ji Wu Jiu took another look at her and asked, "Who are you?"
"Back to the emperor, my concubine is Hua Zhaoyi." Although the words were awkward, the rules were pretty good.
Ji Wu Jiu nodded, "Not bad."
Hua Zhaoyi couldn't figure out what he was praising, but he was praised anyway, so she said, "Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."
At this time, someone rowed a canopy to the shore. Ji Wu Jiu became interested and waved everyone away, then pulled Ye Zhenzhen to get on the boat. Ye Zhenzhen withdrew her hand and said, "I won't play anymore." After saying that, she turned around and left.
Ji Wu Jiu followed up, grabbed her hand, and said with a smile, "Why don't you play anymore? Do you want to play with that flower raft? It just so happens that it's still there, let's get on it."
Ye Zhenzhen shook off his hand, "Who wants to play with that? I'm going back."
Ji Wu Jiu was a little confused and didn't understand why her attitude changed so quickly. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"I'm dizzy." Ye Zhenzhen lowered her head and replied in a low voice.
The author has something to say: Ji Wu Jiu was a little confused and didn’t understand why her attitude changed so quickly. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"I'm dizzy." Ye Zhenzhen lowered her head and replied in a low voice.
