Chapter 152: Rewards (Monthly Pass)

Hearing the three words Chen Wuji, the empress dowager's shoulders trembled slightly, and she was in a daze and couldn't help but murmur: "Chen...Wu...Ji..."

These three words that are so obsessed with dreams come from the mouth of a vast thief in this faint dungeon, but touch every nerve of the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother took a deep breath and said, "What kind of person is he...?"

Jiang Chenjing was stunned, and he couldn't describe it.

Seeing that Jiang Chenjing did not answer, Zhang Jing sternly said: "Quick answer!"

Jiang Chenjing showed his eyes in his scattered hair, as if he was very scared. The interrogation these days had made him worse than death. He hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, he...he is a very smart person."

Extremely smart...

This is Jiang Chenjing's truth, and he dare not not tell the truth.

The Empress Dowager remained silent, while Zhang Jing only hunched over and looked at the Empress Dowager's face carefully.

Jiang Chenjing continued: "When I first met him, he was very calm. At that time, I felt that he was not a simple scholar. He was too calm, and even... gave people the illusion that he had a delicate heart and his eyes, as if he could see through many things."

"But I was still careless. I have been in the world for more than ten years. I have met a hero like this. How could a little scholar be able to make trouble? Oh, no, no, it's not like that. Later I figured it out. The most important thing about me is that this person...he can see through people's hearts. He used something to numb me."

"What?"

"Great profit! The most terrible thing about him is not his calmness, but his knowing what I need, so he lied that he could make the king of salt. For a thief like me, salt is silver, countless silver, and I just need silver. I need this king of salt so much. Only by getting these, then my salt is the rarest treasure in the world. No well salt sold by salt vendors cannot pose a threat to me, perhaps... and it is precisely because of greed.

He grabbed what I longed for the most in my heart. At that time, although I was guarded against it, the greed that was aroused by him in my heart was like countless insects and ants, scratching my whole body. This person... is really terrible. I was not defeated by that fire, nor was it a conspiracy, but a greed, because no matter how big the conspiracy is, there will always be negligence. No matter how many calculations are, you can carefully discover its clues. Only... the greed that is aroused is enough to make the horse lose its way."

The Queen Mother listened silently, but her eyes were filled with memories.

In fact, for her, whether it is good or bad, she is a mediocre young man or a resourceful person. In fact, this is not important at all. The Queen Mother just simply wants to know more about this person, even if it is just some clues or loopholes, she just wants to know and try her best to know more.

"He... wasn't injured, that fire..."

Jiang Chenjing tried hard to recall: "Yes, there are."

The queen mother suddenly clenched her fist and said to herself: "Hmm?"

Jiang Chenjing said: "When I left the fire scene, I saw him naked, taking off his clothes, and there were traces of fire on his waist and abdomen, and it was bloody and bloody."

Waist and abdomen...

The empress dowager's nose felt sour: "What else do you know?"

"I... I look at him, and he is definitely not like a young man. Although he has a young man's appearance, he gives me the feeling that he is like a thoughtful middle-aged man. He seems honest, but he is actually treacherous, simple and simple, but in fact... His words and smiles, and his every move seems to think twice before acting."

"Are there any more?"

"No...no."

The queen mother nodded, her face under her hood was hidden in the shadows, and no one could see the joy and anger on her face.

After a while, she grew up and turned around and wanted to leave. After walking a few steps, she suddenly looked back and said, "His name is really Chen Wuji!"

This sentence is enough to make people confused.

Jiang Chenjing was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer.

At this time, the Empress Dowager had returned to the corridor and walked slowly towards the end of the corridor.

Zhang Jing hurriedly trotted and chased after him.

The Empress Dowager said: "Kaizhi knew that she was Chen Wuji, and she must also know her life experience."

"yes."

"But..." The Empress Dowager exclaimed: "But he didn't come to recognize each other, what does this mean?"

"Explanation..." Zhang Jing paused for a moment before saying, "It means that Your Highness Wuji also knows that now is not the time to recognize each other. He is so smart. If he knows that such a thing, there will inevitably be danger."

"The man surnamed Yang must have told him something before he died."

"I just thought of this. Eunuch Yang, who was always taciturn in the palace, had chosen to take His Highness Wuji to nowhere, perhaps because he had something indescribable in his heart."

"These are nothing to do." The Empress Dowager walked step by step, but said, "Wuji, this child, knew that there was another mother in this world, but he did not dare to recognize each other. Is it because he blamed the Ai family? He blamed the Ai family for not protecting him at that time! Or maybe it was just because he simply sensed the danger."

"Empress, all the signs are that Your Highness Wuji is a very smart person. I think your Highness won't blame the Empress."

"I hope...this is the case." The Empress Dowager seemed depressed: "He is so smart, so the Ai family will feel more at ease."

The Queen Mother's words were full of warmth, and even Zhang Jing seemed to be infected.

But the next moment, the queen mother's tone became cold again: "I will kill Jiang Chenjing tonight, and I will write a new copy of the confession. The original confession, if you involve the three words Chen Wuji, you must completely erase it, do you know?"

"yes."

After walking out of the dungeon, the inconspicuous carriage outside had been long since.

The Empress Dowager suddenly looked up at the moon. The moon was seductive and with a faint halo, the Empress Dowager pointed at the moon and said, "Zhang Jing, look, this moon is like a hook, I don't know when it will be perfect."

"Empress, when the moon is full and waning, people will be separated by flesh and blood, and sooner or later there will be a day of harmony."

After hearing this, the empress dowager actually smiled, smiling very charmingly. This charm suddenly wiped away the dignity and gloom of the past. She took Zhang Jing's hand into the car, sat in the car, pondered for a moment, and then said: "The killing of the salt thieves is a great achievement. As for the kindness and reward, let King Zhao plan to make a charter. As long as his charter is reported, all the favors will be correct. The Ai family wants to see what King Zhao will do."

Zhang Jing said, "Empress is very smart, and she is involved in the Prince of Dongshan and is handed over to King Zhao for disposal. If the reward is light, it will cause a rift between the Prince of Dongshan and the Prince of Zhao's Mansion. If the reward is too heavy, the Prince of Wuji..."

The queen mother sneered, "But what if she favors one and the other?"

Zhang Jing was stunned and couldn't answer for a moment.
