Chapter 247 It’s Jiang Zuo’s fault

After seeing Su Shaoxun off, Chen Xiu felt a little more worried for some reason and asked, "Meng Cheng, what time is it now?"

Meng Cheng looked outside and said, "About 3 p.m."

"Wei Shi..."

Chen Xiu suddenly remembered something.

"What's the matter, Master?"

Meng Cheng asked in confusion, noticing the change in Chen Xiu's expression.

"nothing."

Chen Xiu shook his head.

When I was silent, a beautiful face appeared in my mind.

"How about we go to that Xinghualou?"

Chen Xiu suddenly said again.

Hearing this, Meng Cheng's eyes lit up, but at the same time he asked with some doubt: "What is the young master going there for?"

In a place like this, what else can you do besides drinking wine...

Meng Cheng also understood. Recalling Jiang Zuo's hospitality a few days ago, it was indeed not bad. It was just that he was so drunk that Meng Cheng almost forgot what happened that day.

Chen Xiu pondered for a moment and said, "I just think it's quite strange there. There must be some clues. I want to check it out again."

I don’t know if this reason is a bit far-fetched.

Meng Cheng nodded and said, "I understand. I'll go get ready now."

After a while, Chen Xiu came to the Xinghualou again.

After standing in front of the door for a moment, Chen Xiu stepped in.

There was still a lot of noise in here, which made Chen Xiu feel uncomfortable, but he came here for only one purpose.

"Master, what are you looking for? Why don't we split up?"

Meng Cheng said.

He came here this time to look for Miss Chun'er.

Chen Xiu also knew Meng Cheng's purpose, so he didn't stop him. He just said, "Go ahead, but remember not to drink."

"Don't worry, Master. I'll be back soon."

Meng Cheng was already a little impatient.

Chen Xiu ignored him, his eyes remained on the stage.

After an unknown amount of time, the cold and beautiful woman walked up.

Just like last time, she was still holding the pipa and behaving gracefully.

The sound of the pipa.

Looking at her face, Chen Xiu felt a little moved.

"It is impossible that this king would fall in love with a singing girl..."

Chen Xiu had complicated thoughts in his mind.

Just as he was absorbed in watching, he suddenly heard someone behind him say, "Master Jiu, what a coincidence."

Chen Xiu turned his head with a little confusion.

The person behind him is Jiang Zuo.

……

Beijing.

Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.

Chen Qingyun was reviewing memorials as usual.

The Empress has been quite busy with government affairs recently.

The area north of the desert no longer posed much of a threat to the State of Yan.

Ever since Jiang Zuo used a strategy of sowing discord, the tribes in Mobei have been fighting each other, and it has become difficult for them to unite.

What's more, because of Jiangzuo's various vicious schemes, the population loss in Mobei was extremely serious, and most of them have now become new Yan people.

There are no hidden dangers in Mobei anymore.

What Chen Qingyun is most worried about now is the south and the northwest.

The south has just signed a peace agreement with the State of Chen. Moreover, the internal situation of the State of Chen is in chaos now. It will definitely not launch an attack on the State of Yan in the next few months.

The biggest threat now is from the northwest.

Chen Qingyun did not trust the Fourteenth King who was in charge of guarding the northwest, and had already sent Thousand Cavalry to monitor him.

The countries in the Western Regions have already taken action, coveting Liangzhou of Yan State.

Chen Qingyun could only hope that there would be no chaos in the northwest. Only after Jiangzuo destroyed the Chen Kingdom would the imperial court have enough energy to resolve the hidden dangers in the northwest.

While thinking about that, the guards brought two letters.

They were all letters sent from Jiangzhou by Jiangzuo.

"I am fully committed to my work, Your Majesty, please rest assured..."

The content of the letter was almost the same as before.

After seeing the letter from Jiang Zuo, Chen Qingyun was actually not reassured.

The other letter was completely different.

"Siyue, do you want to come to Jiangzhou City for a tour?"

Chen Qingyun read the letter and smiled helplessly.

With so many government affairs at court, there is no time for entertainment.

Jiang Zuo is so good. He has such an important position in his hands, but he is still thinking about having fun. It's really worrying.

At this time, a guard brought a letter from the Ninth Prince sent back to the capital.

"I have arrived at Jiangzhou City. Everything is fine. Your Majesty, please do not worry."

It is a handwritten letter from Chen Xiu.

After hearing these words, Chen Qingyun felt relieved.

At first Chen Qingyun was worried. After all, this ninth brother's personality was most similar to hers. He hated evil and had a straightforward character.

It would be difficult for Chen Xiu to get along well with a dishonest guy like Jiang Zuo.

However, since there was no conflict between the two of them, the empress felt relieved.

"Your Majesty, Zhang Huan is back."

At this time, Qiuyue came to the empress.

"Let him in."

Chen Qingyun said.

A moment later, Zhang Huan came to the imperial study and brought news from Jiangzhou City.

These days, Zhang Huan has been in charge of "looking after" Jiang Zuo and others at the Qianqi Division.

"What's going on over there in Jiang Zuo?"

Chen Qingyun said in a low voice.

Zhang Huan reported truthfully: "Your Majesty, the Jiang patrol officer has been busy with his own business these days and does not seem to have started preparations for the attack on Chen."

Hearing this, Chen Qingyun put down the memorial in his hand, but he was not surprised.

This guy Jiang Zuo has always been unwilling to tell the truth in his memorials to the emperor.

If Chen Qingyun hadn't sent the Thousand Cavalry Division in the capital to monitor him, it would have been impossible for him to get the truth.

Forget it. The empress is used to Jiang Zuo’s lip service anyway.

Let him make some money, as long as he can destroy the State of Chen later.

Putting away his thoughts, Chen Qingyun asked again: "I heard that the Ninth Prince and Jiang Zuo get along well. What have they been doing these days?"

As for Jiang Zuo and the Ninth Prince, two people whom she trusted extremely much, the empress was still very concerned about their daily lives.

But Zhang Huan's expression at this moment showed a little more nervousness, and he did not immediately answer Chen Qingyun's words.

Chen Qingyun raised his head and noticed Zhang Huan's expression. He frowned and said, "If there is anything wrong, just say it."

Zhang Huan lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Jiang and the Ninth Prince, they, they have been visiting brothels these days..."

"What! A brothel?"

Chen Qingyun stood up suddenly.

"Did you see it with your own eyes?"

The empress didn't quite believe it.

Zhang Huan said, "Yes, I saw them walk in with my own eyes."

"Where would the Ninth Prince go? Impossible!"

Chen Qingyun already knew the answer and sighed helplessly.

Jiang Zuo, you are such a lustful man, not only that, but you even led the Ninth Prince astray.

Chen Qingyun, the ninth brother, has been a well-behaved man since he was young, and it is absolutely impossible for him to go to such places of entertainment.

The only possibility is this guy Jiang Zuo...

It’s all Jiang Zuo’s fault!

Chen Qingyun was so angry that he wanted to grab Jiang Zuo's ears and beat him up.

This guy used to appear to be very affectionate, but maybe he was a womanizer all the time!

A big liar!

"If I knew that you were having affairs with Jiang Zuo, I would definitely make you a eunuch in the palace!"

Chen Qingyun felt a little angry.

I asked you to prepare for the plan to destroy Chen, but you have time to visit brothels.

How presumptuous!
