Chapter 4 004
It turned out that the main character doesn't approach women because he likes men, and other weird thoughts quickly rolled through his subordinates' minds. He suppressed his eagerness to share this earth-shattering news with his colleagues, and bowed his head to Ji Ji. Lang got down to business.
Cheng Xiezhi looked away boredly, he was not interested in anything other than Ji Lang himself, but this matter could have something to do with him.
"The little emperor committed suicide by cutting his wrist."
This is what the subordinate opened his mouth.
Ji Lang put down the vermilion pen, his expression couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry: "What's going on?"
The subordinate said: "The little emperor woke up this morning. The subordinates saw that he didn't overreact, so they didn't let people monitor him all the time. Unexpectedly, he cut his wrist with a piece of porcelain, and he still cleaned up the dishes. The servants went in and found out. The child was not strong enough, and the wound was shallow. The doctor had already rescued him. But the little emperor kept crying after being rescued. Without the jade seal, he would have no face to live in the world anymore. .”
"The subordinates were too annoying to hear him yelling, so they just knocked him out."
He frowned and said.
Ji Lang obviously didn't care about the little emperor's life or death: "Let him go."
In troubled times, a subjugated young master who has no use value is not as good as a commoner.It's cruel for a child, but it's true.
"This subordinate knows." The subordinate laughed twice, impatiently dealing with the crying little emperor, "There is one more thing. Didn't we intercept the little emperor and Yuxi from Xihaihou's people? That old man is in our The manpower was lost on the site, and he refused to let it go. What the spies mean is that the old man is going to tear us apart, relying on his status as a royal family member to snatch the little emperor away, so that he can coerce the emperor to make the princes !"
It is a good idea to hold the emperor to make the princes, but it also needs to have this ability.
Ji Lang chuckled softly: "Then give it to him, my small place can't afford to serve a heavenly nobleman or Nine-Five Supreme."
When he said these two titles, there was an inexplicable sense of irony.
"Let Mr. Ning prepare for this matter, and be sure to send it back respectfully."
Mr. Ning is one of Ji Lang's advisers, he is especially good at talking nonsense and pretending to be confused, and he is a good hand in diplomatic matters.
"Yes."
Let Mr. Ning go, Xi Haihou will have to cut off a large piece of fat from his body this time.The subordinate thought gloatingly.
Cheng Xiezhi propped his forehead, and the voices of the two discussing occasionally drifted into his ears.
The system thought of the little emperor who ran miserably with them for five years, and couldn't help but sigh: "The heart of a politician is really dirty. Look at how he treats the little emperor, there is no guarantee that he will not break the contract and stab you back .”
"Oh." Cheng Xiezhi rolled his eyes, "If he breaks the contract, I can justifiably kill him, and all the luck in him will be mine. What's wrong?"
System: I don't know why it actually heard a hint of expectation from the host's tone.
Cheng Xiezhi, who was planning to maximize his own interests in his heart, asked slowly after his subordinates went out, "You want to send the little emperor to Xi Haihou, will you send me there too?"
He speaks softly, it sounds like a young man has been wronged, but Ji Lang has no doubt that as long as he dares to nod and say "yes", the beautiful and harmless young man on the couch will immediately break his neck .
Ji Lang really had no intention of sending Cheng Xiezhi's "Jade Seal" there.He is different after all...
Ji Lang lowered his eyes and said, "My life is in your hands now, how could I treat you like this?"
Cheng Xiezhi benefited from his weakness, "I won't let you die."
Ji Lang gently pulled the corners of his lips, and his smile spread.
System: ... The host is in a daze.
On the other side, the subordinate went out to find Mr. Ning, and the two discussed how to deal with the little emperor's matter, and couldn't help but gossip.
Subordinate: "Let me tell you a shocking secret! You must not know what I saw in the master's study today! Tsk tsk!"
Mr. Ning, who was over fifty years old, was shocked by his loud voice and rubbed his ears, his eyelids twitched: "What?"
"A great beauty! A great beauty!" The subordinate gestured exaggeratedly, "Such a big living person, as beautiful as in the painting. Sitting on the couch where the lord usually rests! He is still wearing the lord's clothes! The lord didn't let him avoid it all the time!"
"This is a rare iron tree blooming in a hundred years! Maybe we will have a wife soon!"
He said and looked at Mr. Ning expectantly, but his colleague immediately became serious after hearing this: "Let me ask you, have we seen anyone brought back by the lord these days?"
"You only saw this man for the first time when you entered the study."
The subordinate touched the back of his head in puzzlement.
Mr. Ning hates iron but not steel: "It's really such a rare and peerless person like you said, why haven't we heard a little bit of it before?"
"So—" the subordinate suddenly realized, "It must be a fairy in the sky!"
Mr. Ning froze his goatee hand, and angrily scolded: "Absurd! It's clearly a spy with ulterior motives sent by an unknown force!"
He judged Cheng Xiezhi's identity loudly and vigorously.
……
Cheng Xiezhi didn't care about what Ji Lang's subordinates thought of him, so he didn't know that there were as many as a dozen versions of the rumors about him. The most outrageous one was that he was a fox spirit transformed into a human, and came to report him. The kindness of the previous life.
When the system told him these rumors, Cheng Xiezhi was looking at the topographic map.
The topographical drawings of this era are very crude, and only the general topography can be discerned.He traced a route with his fingertips, and finally stopped at the upper left of the map.
This is a small city close to the capital of the former dynasty, and the only medicinal herb in the world that could save Ji Lang's life is located here.Judging from the video of Feng Qinghan, this herb was regarded as an ordinary weed, and was almost taken by the peasant woman to be mixed with firewood and burned. Fortunately, Ji Lang's men who passed by to rest recognized the weed and rescued it in time.
System: "Then shall we go find this medicinal herb now?"
Cheng Xiezhi: "No hurry, I don't know where this medicinal material is when I look for it now, let's go when it is about to be burned as firewood."
"What's more, it's useless for us two outsiders to go to something that can change the direction of the world."
The system knew that what Cheng Xiezhi said was correct, but he was still worried in his heart: "What if we still can't find the medicinal materials..."
"So make preparations in advance." Cheng Xiezhi said decisively, "Take Feng Qinghan with you. It should be useful."
System: ... I feel that the host is going to make trouble.
The last time it had such a premonition, Cheng Xiezhi blew up half of the Imperial scientific research institute, live-broadcasted to the entire galaxy the theoretical experiments in the scientific research institute that violated the imperial human rights and laws, and triggered the largest demonstration in the history of the empire.
……never mind.
The system turned the topic back to what it said to Cheng Xiezhi at the beginning: "...I didn't expect the ancient rumors to spread so fast, and it is estimated that in two days it will become a vixen's demagogic version. "
Cheng Xiezhi twitched the corners of his mouth with great interest, propped his head up and said to Ji Lang, "Your subordinates seem to be very concerned about your relationship?"
Ji Lang was stunned: "What happened?"
"They might think I'm yours..." Cheng Xiezhi thought for a while, and chose a term that fits the times, "...boy favorite?"
His tone was downplaying, and he didn't seem to care about being described as an Israeli male favorite, but found this statement very interesting.
really.
"No one has ever thought about my identity like this." Cheng Xie said in one sentence, "You have a lot of male pets? Do they think so?"
Ji Lang rubbed his forehead with a headache: "No. I don't like keeping male pets."
Cheng Xiezhi said "Oh" to express his understanding. After all, a workaholic who has to work at least six hours a day, it's normal not to like entertainment.
but……
Cheng Xiezhi asked again: "Then do you have a concubine?"
Ji Lang squeezed the vermilion pen tightly in his hand, "...not at all. I will instruct them not to speculate on this matter, and it will not affect your reputation."
"This is nothing." Cheng Xiezhi waved his hand, "I can solve it myself."
Ji Lang was silent for a while, seeing that he didn't care about this matter at all, so he didn't mention it any more.
Cheng Xiezhi looked at him with his chin resting in boredom, and asked, "You have neither a concubine nor a male pet, so do you usually have any other recreational activities?"
"Riding horses, archery, writing, and playing chess." Ji Lang casually said a few things.
Cheng Xiezhi was not interested in the several activities he mentioned, "The emperors in the previous dynasty didn't like these things. They all liked to marry concubines. You can learn more about the ways of emperors from your ancestors."
Ji Lang: "..."
Of the five emperors in the previous dynasty, except for the last emperor who was too young to understand human affairs, the other emperors were indeed quite feminine and accepted many concubines. The most absurd one had three queens.
But is this something worth learning?
"If you feel bored, I will take you there next month on King Qi's birthday. Qi is beautiful and bustling. You should like it."
"Okay." Cheng Xiezhi replied.
The system remembered that he just wanted to capture Feng Qinghan as a treasure hunting detector: "Host, I have loaded the map of this world. If you want to go to Qidi to find Feng Qinghan, we can start now."
Cheng Xiezhi: "Following Ji Lang, you don't have to eat and drink, and you don't have to worry about your itinerary. Why do you have to make trouble yourself?"
system:"……"
Very good, this approach is in line with the host's style.
Cheng Xiezhi didn't care about the complaints from the bottom of his heart, and said to Ji Lang: "In this case, I will take some time to solve the rumors outside."
……
After a few days in a row, Ji Lang found that his subordinates stopped talking while looking at his expressions, so he couldn't help but ask one more question, only then did he know how Cheng Xiezhi clarified the rumors.
He did address the rumors that damaged his reputation, but turned them into another version.
In this version, he was originally a boy from a good family, but he was kidnapped by Ji Lang.But he himself is proud and would rather die than surrender.
Ji Lang: "..."
That night, he still couldn't help asking Cheng Xiezhi: "Is this the way you clear up the rumors?"
