From the moment she came in, Zhang Cong told her how good King Lu Zhouzheng was, which was probably what King Lu meant.
"That's right."
Zhang Cong nodded.
"These gifts were given to Lord Qu by His Royal Highness King Lu, I hope His Excellency will accept them!" Zhang Cong said, pointing to the gifts in front of him.
Zhou Zheng wanted to win over Qu Xu, and I believe Qu Jingning could also see that.
"A gift from King Lu?"
Qu Jingning did not expect that Zhang Cong actually brought the gift from King Lu.
This is to put their Qu family in a desperate situation.
Once these gifts are accepted, their Qu family will be tied to King Lu, and their Qu family can only choose King Lu in the future.
King Lu wanted Qu Jia to completely enter his camp.
"That's right, His Royal Highness the King of Lu appreciates Master Qu very much, so let me send you a gift, but don't worry, this gift has no other meaning."
Zhang Cong saw a change in the expression on Qu Jingning's face, and immediately explained to Qu Jingning.
no other meaning?
Qu Jingning couldn't help sneering in her heart, I'm afraid Zhang Cong can't convince herself of this reason, there is no other reason, why do you give gifts?
King Lu's mind is clearly revealed.
"Since there is no other meaning, please take these gifts back, and tell His Royal Highness King Lu that we have accepted the favor, but we dare not accept the presents."
Qu Jingning rejected Zhang Cong's gift, but it should be said that it was a gift from Lu Wang Zhouzheng.
"Jing Ning actually doesn't need to be so decisive in this matter. These gifts are all ordinary things, and I have already sent them. You are asking me to take them back. I am afraid that something is wrong."
Zhang Cong said.
How can I take this gift back.
"Zhang Cong, do you know the consequences of my Qu family accepting this gift?" Qu Jingning was a little angry after hearing Zhang Cong's words.
Zhang Cong said so lightly, this is related to the future of the Qu family, and even the lives of all of them, Zhang Cong actually said it so ordinary.
"What are the consequences of this? His Royal Highness King Lu's gift is not poison, you should accept it, and it is a gift for Mr. Qu. How do you know that Mr. Qu will not accept this gift."
Zhang Cong persuaded.
He promised in front of Zhou Zheng that he would be able to accomplish this, so he couldn't fail.
"It's not that poison is better than poison. What's the meaning of His Royal Highness King Lu suddenly giving gifts to my Qu family? If you accept these gifts, how will my Qu family face His Royal Highness Lu in the future? If His Royal Highness Lu has something to do, my Qu family will Do you want to help?"
Qu Jingning asked Zhang Cong back.
She wasn't targeting these gifts. Although she, Qu Jingning, had never seen anything in the world, these gifts really couldn't impress her.
What he was targeting was the nature behind this matter.
King Lu Zhouzheng is trying to win over the Qu family. The emperor's most taboo is the position of ministers. Isn't Zhang Cong harming the Qu family?
"You are serious. His Royal Highness Lu Wang is not such a person. Even if he gave a gift, he would not ask your Qu family what to do." Zhang Cong listened to Qu Jingning's words and began to defend Zhou Zheng.
"You don't need to say, this thing is impossible, I will never allow such a thing to happen, the Qu family cannot accept this gift."
Qu Jingning answered Zhang Cong's words very decisively.
This gift is a hot potato.
"Jing Ning, why are you so stubborn."
Zhang Cong didn't expect Qu Jingning to be so stubborn, she didn't even show any affection to herself, so she just didn't want this gift.
"It's not that I'm stubborn, this gift is too heavy for me, the Qu family, to bear."
Qu Jingning said.
"I'll put the gift here. Since you don't want to accept it, let's wait until Master Qu comes over to talk about it. His Royal Highness King Lu has other things waiting for me, so I'll go first!"
Zhang Cong was about to leave after speaking, as if he was saying that the Qu family had to take this gift if they didn't want it.
"Stop!"
Qu Jingning called Zhang Cong to stop.
"Zhang Cong, this is the Qu family and it's not your turn to force our Qu family to do things. There is no relationship between you and me. Please take this gift away."
Qu Jingning said in a serious tone.
"His Royal Highness King Lu has no malice, why are you so hostile to His Royal Highness?"
"I'm not hostile, I'm cautious." Qu Jingning said, she was cautious, and it must be King Lu who accepted the giftpeople, so this gift cannot be accepted.
"It's up to you!"
Seeing Qu Jingning's firm attitude, Zhang Cong didn't say anything.
Zhang Cong ordered people to leave Qufu with gifts.
"What should I do about Mr. Zhang?" The person next to him asked Zhang Cong. The gift they gave was rejected, so it would be difficult to go back and deal with Zhou Zheng.
"We still have to go to Qu Xu for this matter."
Zhang Cong said.
After all, Qu Jingning is a woman, and the Qu family still needs Qu Xu to decide what they can know, so Zhang Cong thinks they should go to Qu Xu.
If Qu Xu agreed, even if Qu Jingning insisted, it would be meaningless.
"Young Master Zhang is right."
The person beside Zhang Cong nodded and said
The Imperial Study Room.
Qu Xu handed all the evidence to Emperor Guangxiao.
"You mean that Xu Ang changed the ordnance?" Emperor Guangxiao looked at the testimony with a cold tone.
"That's right, Wei Chen made a clear investigation. When we found the ordnance, we happened to capture Xu Ang's lieutenant Xing Tonghua and the Xu family's official family. It can be regarded as stolen goods."
Qu Xu said.
Now it's personal evidence and physical evidence, and the stolen goods are taken together. Even if the Xu family is covered with mouths, it will not have any effect.
"The Xu family is so bold." Emperor Guangxiao did not expect Xu Ang to do such a thing.
"Do you know why?"
Emperor Guangxiao asked, everything has a reason, and I believe Xu Ang must have his own reasons for doing so.
"Yes. His Royal Highness King Qi beheaded Xu Ning according to the national law. Xu Ang held a grudge, so he thought of exchanging ordnance to defeat my army, and killed His Highness King Qi with the hands of the Northern Wei Dynasty."
Qu Xu explained the reason of the matter.
"It's simply lawless. Xu Ning deserves to die, but Xu Ang actually cheated the soldiers of our three armies for his own selfishness. This matter will never be tolerated."
Emperor Guangxiao said angrily.
Emperor Guangxiao was very angry about Xu Ning's matter, but Zhou Heng killed Xu Ning, which can be regarded as a lesson for the Xu family, so he will not pursue it.
Unexpectedly, the Xu family did not learn their lesson, and even worsened.
"Your Majesty!"
Emperor Guangxiao and Qu Xu were discussing matters in the imperial study when the queen rushed out from the outside.
"Your Majesty, I heard that King Qi has arrested my younger brother Xu Ang. Your Majesty, please be the master of my Xu family. King Qi is clearly targeting my Xu family."
The queen came in from outside the imperial study, and asked Emperor Guangxiao to give the Xu family justice.
"Your Majesty, King Qi killed my younger brother Xu Ning, and now he is arresting my younger brother Xu Ang. Please let the Emperor decide."
When the queen saw Emperor Guangxiao, she continued to cry without speaking.
The queen heard the news of Xu Ang's arrest just today, and immediately came to Emperor Guangxiao after hearing the news, hoping that Emperor Guangxiao could give the Xu family justice. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
