Chapter 226: Things happen for a reason
Regarding that letter, it was not Prime Minister Du's intention. The people of the cold palace are dispensable in the harem, and there is no need to bother to deal with the people inside, according to the usual practice, the woman who lives in the harem still wants to come out, it is just a fool's dream, in this case, why should he spend effort on a dignified prime minister. Everything is unpredictable, I never thought that the queen who was beaten into the cold palace would have a grudge with people from other countries.
A few nights ago.
The manager said: Master, the people of the Zhang family are waiting outside the house, saying that they want to see you.
Prime Minister Du raised his head and asked: Who is here?
Pipe: The man didn't get out of the carriage, it seems that he should be the master of his family.
Prime Minister Du Cheng said: Okay, go and ask someone to come over.
The steward immediately retreated. After a while, I saw that the manager came back, and the person behind him was indeed Master Zhang.
After inviting people into the study, the chief manager left quickly under the signal of Prime Minister Du Cheng.
Prime Minister Du Cheng got up from the chair to greet him and said, "Why did Master Zhang come over today?"
On weekdays, Prime Minister Du Cheng went to Zhang's Mansion in person, and he deliberately chose it in the evening to try not to be seen. No one has ever been to Du Mansion in that Zhang Mansion, which is really confusing. Prime Minister Du suddenly felt that something was wrong.
But Master Zhang doesn't seem to matter. I saw him put on a smiling face and said: I should have come to your mansion to sit down a long time ago, and when the matter came, I thought of coming over to meet Prime Minister Du Cheng, which was really rude.
Hearing this, Prime Minister Du Cheng smiled and said: Master Zhang has said this, how can it be rude? Since it has been explained, what is the reason for this, Master Zhang said it and listened.
As he spoke, Prime Minister Du Cheng stretched out his hand and asked Master Zhang to sit down on the Taishi chair against the wall on one side, while he sat on the adjacent chair.
After sitting down, Master Zhang said: Then I will be blunt. I hurried here today, not for anything else, it was the news from over there, and there was a sentence in it that only Prime Minister Du Cheng could do anyway.
When Prime Minister Du heard this, he asked: What is the matter?
Master Zhang continued: I asked before, and it is not a difficult matter. But as he said it, he could only ask Prime Minister Du Cheng for help, and Zhang couldn't do anything.
Hearing this, Prime Minister Du Cheng asked: What is the matter?
Master Zhang looked at Prime Minister Du Cheng and said: That's the case, there has been a promise that Prime Minister Lu will be killed in the near future, but before that, Prime Minister Du Cheng must come forward and write a letter to the daughter in the palace and ask her to deal with the queen.
After listening to the words, Du Cheng pondered for a moment, and then asked: How can she be the queen? Hasn't she been beaten into the cold palace by the emperor? What good will it do you to kill her?
Prime Minister Du Cheng will ask this question as early as planned. Seeing this, Master Zhang said unhurriedly: It is natural for the prime minister to have questions. But Zhang didn't know the details, so he just sent a message. In my opinion, the prime minister should not ask too much about this matter, just do it, and as for other things, people will naturally help us do it.
As long as he talked about that side, Master Zhang showed a strict and obedient appearance, and Prime Minister Du Cheng had already looked unpleasant, so he couldn't help but sink his face and said: It's just a matter of doing it well, if you want to do it like last time, I haven't done anything I want to do. As for the military defense layout map, Du was also happy and lacked strength.
Hearing this, Master Zhang hurriedly smiled and said: Prime Minister can't say this, you know, we are already people in the same boat, and if we help me, we will help you, don't you say?
Prime Minister Du Cheng nodded and said: The words have already been said about this, so naturally I have nothing to say. It's just a reminder. I will do what you say.
Master Zhang said: It's okay to explain it. As long as Prime Minister Du Cheng has a move, he will immediately arrange the assassination after knowing about it, so it depends on Prime Minister Du Cheng in terms of time.
Prime Minister Du Cheng said: I understand.
Master Zhang opened the corners of his mouth again and smiled: Everything has been explained clearly, then it's time to leave.
I saw him get up and raise his hand, and then said: If there is a chance next time, Zhang Mou will bring a heavy gift to visit again.
Prime Minister Du Cheng also stood up and made a move.
Master Zhang raised his hand, turned around and walked out of the house, and happened to meet the chief steward who came over, and then the chief steward took him out of the Du Mansion.
After Master Zhang left, Prime Minister Du Cheng stayed in the study, what is the deep meaning of dealing with Ren Qingqing in the cold palace?
It is said that since Du Youlan received the letter, she has been planning in her heart. Before, I also asked Zijuan to go to the Cold Palace to have a look, and when I came back, I knew that after the last repair, the appearance of the Cold Palace had changed, and it didn't look like a place where no one went, but the Cold Palace was still dilapidated and simple from the outside.
The weather was very good, and early this morning, Du Youlan decided to go and see for herself. Zijuan and a group of palace maids and eunuchs.
Come to the cold palace, the scene seen all the way is not bad from the imperial garden, the flowers and trees are taken care of, although it is not yet spring, but in the spring season, the jade cistanche, delicate and dripping compared to the imperial garden is more flavorful.
I saw a patch of verdant color in the distance near the sky, and after seeing it closely, it turned out to be the century-old forest. Du Youlan didn't take the path that needed to go through the forest, but walked straight along the path to the Cold Hidden Palace. The crowd behind him hurriedly followed.
At this time, Qi Xuan was going out of the palace gate, and as soon as she opened the palace gate, she saw Du Youlan and others who were walking towards her not far away. Seeing this, Qi Xuan, who was about to walk out, withdrew his feet and retreated, and his hands holding the door frame were about to close the door again.
Zijuan in the distance had already seen Qi Xuan's figure, and when she saw that she was about to close the door, she hurriedly shouted loudly: Stop, don't close it!
Qi Xuan closed the door as if he hadn't heard, and then inserted the latch.
Seeing this, Zijuan was about to shout, but Du Youlan on the side said: Don't shout.
Zijuan hurriedly swallowed the words back.
In front of the gate of the cold palace, there were two guards on both sides of the near wall of the palace gate, and Zijuan had already known about the two of them, and it was not surprising. Ignoring them, she walked to the palace gate and knocked on the door.
After waiting for a while, he didn't listen to the human voice. Zijuan knocked a few more times, a little harder.
At this time, Qi Xuan was in front of Qingqing and said: Don't pay attention to them.
Someeda, who heard a knock on the door, was coming out of the side room to open the door. But he was summoned by Qi Xuan, and heard her say: Dye Zhi, come here! Let them knock it.
Since Qi Xuan said that the person who came outside was Du Youlan, Qingqing felt strange, she and Du Youlan did not have a deep friendship, not to mention that her own situation was not to the point where the harem concubines came to visit.
The knock on the door rang again, more urgent each time.
Dye Zhi asked, "Master, can you just let her knock it down?"
When Qi Xuan heard this, he said: Naturally, you know, there must be no good thing for her to come, and the words she said are purely good, who knows what bad things have been done behind it?
Qingqing listened, laughed, and said: Even if we are chickens and she is a weasel, she can't eat us. Okay, let's just let Dye Zhi open the door. It's not good to keep guests waiting outside for too long.
Qi Xuan wanted to say something, but when he saw Qingqing's eyes, he didn't say anything anymore. Dyeeda turned away to open the door.
After a while, Qingqing saw Dye Zhi walking in front of Du Youlan on the right side to guide her way.
After entering the palace gate, Du Youlan looked left and right, and the simple and dilapidated Lengyou Palace made her satisfied. The corners of his mouth smiled, and he walked inside. Soon, she saw Qingqing sitting not far away, sitting under the window holding a book, wearing a long white cotton jacket embroidered with white peonies, the same white cotton skirt below, plus a pair of white cloth finely forged embroidered cotton shoes; I saw that she was sitting upright and looked up at her slightly, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.
