Chapter 137 The spy who fell in love with the male protagonist
Chang'an City.
royal palace.
The emperor looked at the young eunuch beside him and spoke.
"King Kang, is there any news from over there?"
The young eunuch presented the note he had just received to the emperor with a serious expression.
There were only four words written on the note.
"everything is normal."
Seeing the words "everything is normal" again, Emperor Qi Lan's face darkened slightly.
He didn't believe at all that King Kang would be so obedient.
"Xicai, is there something wrong with the person assigned to Prince Kang?"
The young eunuch named Xicai shook his head affirmatively.
"Impossible, their families are still in Chang'an, so they can't possibly betray their master."
Every spy sent to various places has family members in Chang'an.
If they betray their master, their families will be the first to suffer.
Anyone with a conscience will not betray their master for the safety of their family.
Of course, there are also some people who are not clear-headed and forget their original intentions for the so-called love.
At the same time that the emperor received the news, Queen Mother Song Jia also received the news from Prince Kang.
The two messages are exactly the same, and everything is normal.
Queen Mother Song Jia placed the note in her hand on the lamp, lit it, and threw it into the basin beside her.
"Qiu Chan, do you think Prince Kang and Rong Ji are really as well-behaved as they appear?"
As for Rongji and her son, the Queen Mother did not believe at all that they would be so obedient and do nothing.
Qiu Chan thought for a moment and said in a low voice.
"Queen Mother, what do you mean?"
Queen Mother Song Jia said affirmatively.
"The people we placed in Prince Kang's Mansion may have been exposed."
The Queen Mother would rather believe that the people she arranged to go there would be exposed than believe that they would betray her.
"Queen Dowager, Luo Yuxi has only been in Prince Kang's mansion for a month. She should not have been discovered yet."
Queen Mother Song Jia sighed.
"She just arrived and has no foundation, so there's no way to find out any information."
Although Luo Yuxi had not yet reported the news, the Queen Mother knew that she had just gone to Prince Kang's Mansion and could not find any information.
The Queen Mother could never have imagined that Luo Yuxi got the news, but the news was only delivered to the Emperor.
The reason why Queen Mother Song Jia chose to send Luo Yuxi to Prince Kang's Mansion was because of the Emperor.
The Queen Mother accidentally noticed that there was something wrong with the way the Emperor looked at Luo Yuxi.
The Queen Mother is very clear about her son.
She knew at a glance that the emperor had other thoughts about Luo Yuxi.
In order to put an end to the emperor's little thoughts, it is time to send beauties to the princes of each fiefdom.
The Queen Mother saw that Luo Yuxi was quite good-looking.
He secretly arranged for Luo Yuxi to fake her death, changed her identity, and sent her to King Kang together with several other beauties.
The Queen Mother thought she could do nothing about it.
Little did they know that all this was done intentionally by the emperor.
The emperor saw all her actions.
The emperor is now twenty-one years old and has long reached adulthood, but the empress dowager is clinging tightly to power and refuses to give it up.
He was an extremely incompetent emperor. All the ministers in the court obeyed the empress dowager's orders and were sent directly to her residence on foot.
And he was placed on the dragon throne by the Queen Mother like a mascot.
He was not reconciled.
You have to know that this was the Qi family's kingdom, and now it is almost becoming the Song family's.
The people only knew about Empress Dowager Song, but didn't know there was an emperor.
He also privately met with the Queen Mother and said that when he grew up he could help her share her worries.
But the Queen Mother said that he was still young and asked him to gain experience for a few years first.
But he knew that the Queen Mother was unwilling to share power with him.
If it were him, he would not be able to share the power.
But after all, this is still the Qi family's kingdom.
The Queen Mother shouldn't go too far.
In order to appease him, the empress dowager had some unimportant memorials delivered to him.
Looking at the trivial matters reported every day...the emperor's desire for power became even greater.
It doesn't make sense from the Queen Mother's perspective.
The emperor had no choice but to find another way.
He began to pretend to be obsessed with beauty and often asked the palace maids to play hide-and-seek with him.
He wanted to use this to make the Queen Mother relax her vigilance so that he could take the opportunity to build up his own power.
But it’s been a long time.
He found that any woman he favored or looked at for a few more seconds would always encounter various accidents after a few days.
He knew that the Queen Mother must be unhappy with him and secretly dealt with those women.
Although he didn't like those women, he was the one who implicated them.
So he secretly instructed the people around him to give some money to the families of the women who had accidents as compensation.
After processing.
He stopped favoring women and started drinking every day.
The reason why he got close to Luo Yuxi was because he found out that Luo Yuxi had a younger sister serving the Queen Mother.
He wanted Luo Yuxi to work for him.
If you want a woman to help you willingly, you must make her fall in love with you.
The emperor is not bad looking, and most women would like his appearance.
Sure enough, it didn't take him much effort to make Luo Yuxi fall head over heels in love with him.
When he was sure that Luo Yuxi fell in love with him, he began to complain to Luo Yuxi intentionally or unintentionally.
After a long time, Luo Yuxi felt sorry for him and felt sorry for him.
He patted his chest and said he would help her.
After hearing what Luo Yuxi said, the emperor was moved and hugged her.
He promised that as long as he could successfully get back what belonged to him, he would make Luo Yuxi the queen.
Luo Yuxi was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes when she heard this.
He said he would definitely help him get back what belonged to him.
So the two of them discussed it privately and put on a play.
The Queen Mother would certainly never have thought that the son she thought was innocent would plot against her behind her back.
All the news that Luo Yuxi gave to the Empress Dowager passed through the Emperor's hands.
Not long after, the Queen Mother received news that Prince Kang was secretly training soldiers in his fiefdom.
The Queen Mother looked at the note in her hand and thought for a long time while sitting in the main seat before speaking.
"Qiu Chan, send someone to the Song Mansion to summon General Song to the palace."
The General Song that the Queen Mother mentioned was her eldest brother's son, Song Yan.
Song Yan went to the street corner, changed into official uniform and hurried into the palace.
"Your servant, Song Yan, pays homage to the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother live a thousand years."
"Get up!"
"Qiu Chan, please sit down!"
"I wonder what's the matter, aunt, that has me in such a hurry to come into the palace?"
Queen Mother Song Jia briefly expressed her thoughts.
"Your Majesty, take the order."
Song Yan returned home and soon started to claim illness.
Upon hearing the news from the spies in the Song Mansion, the emperor raised his eyebrows.
People outside only thought that Song Yan was sick, but they didn't know that he had already left Chang'an and was on his way to King Kang's fiefdom.
The emperor knew about his mother's situation because he saw the letter and wanted to find out the truth.
The emperor was not at all panicked by this.
He had already sent the message to the spies in King Kang's fiefdom.
Song Yan rode at full speed for ten days before reaching King Kang's fiefdom.
He did not contact the spies in Prince Kang's mansion immediately, but went into the city to find an inn, washed up, had a meal, and then took a nap. Only then did he feel refreshed and began to observe around.
He learned some things from the people in the city and also knew several places that King Kang Qi Rui often went to.
They are brothels, casinos...
In order to confirm the authenticity, he put on a human skin mask and waited in these places.
Don’t worry, he actually encountered it.
He watched King Kang enter the brothel and go straight up to the second floor and into the private room. It was obvious that this was not his first time there.
He pretended to pass by the box and heard the flirting between King Kang and the beauty in the room.
He couldn't help but curl his lips, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
Such a person is obviously a playboy, how could he possibly have the ability to rebel.
But the Empress Dowager spoke so confidently.
He had to believe it.
He dipped his finger in saliva and gently poked a hole in the window paper.
Through the hole, he looked at King Kang, who was disheveled and blindfolded, playing hide-and-seek with several beauties, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.
If the news the Empress Dowager received was not false, then it would seem that this was all a show.
But he came out of Chang'an secretly. Who was King Kang putting on this show for?
He stood in front of the window and watched for half an hour, and the sound inside never stopped.
After standing there for a while, seeing that there was no sign of stopping, he yawned and turned to leave.
Little did they know that he had already left, and several people in the box stopped.
King Kang winked at the woman in red.
The woman nodded slightly, smiled sweetly, and opened the window. Seeing that there was no one outside, she closed the window and returned to the side where she had finished watching.
"My Lord, the person has already left."
"Okay, I understand, you guys can leave now."
After the woman in the box left, King Kang walked gently to the shelf and turned the vase on it.
A secret door slowly opened, he stepped in, and the secret door closed again.
This secret door leads directly to King Kang's study.
As soon as he entered the brothel today, he felt an unusual gaze.
To be cautious, he staged a scene with a group of women in a box.
The reason why Song Yan didn't notice it was because King Kang was already used to it.
Every year, the Empress Dowager Song would send people to comfort the mother and son.
On the surface it is a condolence, but in reality it is a test.
For this reason, every time the Empress Dowager sent someone to visit, he would go to the brothel to perform.
This brothel is his property, and the girls inside are all his trained subordinates.
After returning to the palace, Prince Kang first went to find Rong Ji and told her what had happened today.
He told Rongji to pay attention to the situation in the mansion recently.
Then he returned to the brothel from the study and left through the main gate openly.
As soon as he reached the door, Prince Kang was stopped by Bao Ling, who was serving Nie Yingying.
Prince Kang heard that Nie Yingying was ill.
Acting very anxious, he followed Bao Ling to Nie Yingying's residence.
On the other side, Rong Tian received the news and sat alone at the table, looking at the table full of food without any appetite.
She knew in her heart that someone like King Kang could never belong to her.
But the recent interactions between the two of them had given her some inappropriate fantasies.
Now, hearing that Prince Kang had gone to Concubine Nie's place, she suddenly came to her senses and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
