Since the twists and turns, Fu Ge Lao has closed the door and "meditated on himself" in the house. It's been seven or eight days.

State affairs are cumbersome, without the first assistant of one dynasty, and the rest of the pavilion elders are far less shrewd and decisive than Fu Gelao, Xiao Xu has indeed been busier these days.

However, if Fu Ge Lao thought that the imperial court really couldn't do without him, he would take it for granted.

"In the past, a few cabinet elders took the lead in handling some court affairs, and important state affairs were decided by me and the cabinet elders and scholars. said that it was a discussion, but in fact, most of them had discussed it privately and had a tacit understanding. Sometimes I disagree with them, and I have to talk a lot. Sometimes you have to take their 'advice'. ”

Xiao Xu's expression turned cold, and he said slowly: "As the head of a hundred officials, Fu Ge has been operating in the court for many years, and he has many protégés, and he is extremely prestigious. Several cabinet elders looked at him as the first to look. The six books are also good friends with him. I want to divide and pull together, first, it is not easy to start, and second, to get grace and power and slowly try to do it. ”

"He picked his son and went home this time, which was exactly what I wanted. ”

"I'm of the same mind as you. took advantage of this time to rectify the Fu family and suppress the prestige of Fu Ge Lao. Since he took the initiative to go back to his home, he wanted to come back again, but it was not so easy. ”

Gu Wanning's eyes flashed, and he said coldly: "These days, rumors in the palace have been continuous, and they have already spread outside the palace. I have ordered people to spread rumors among the streets, and the city has been filled with storms. The notorious reputation of assassinating the queen with ill intentions, the Fu family has to bear it if they don't have it. ”

"I want to see how long Fu Ge Lao can last in the mansion!"

……

Fu Mansion.

Fu Ge Lao sat in the study, his expression was quite ugly.

Several staff members sat around Fu Ge Lao's side, and their expressions were not very good.

Elder Fu Ge broke the silence: "What is the situation outside now?"

One of the staff members who was in charge of finding out the news responded cautiously: "Elder Ge, rumors have become more prevalent outside these days. It is said that the Fu family plotted for the position of queen and bribed the dancing queen in the palace with the intention of assassinating the queen. Because the assassination failed, the old man was guilty, so he closed the door. The people in the market are rumoring about this. The officials in the capital also took this matter as a talking point......"

Seeing that Fu Ge's face was getting more and more ugly, the staff didn't dare to say any more.

Another staff member tentatively opened his mouth and said: "I heard that Concubine Fu Niangniang is also in a bad situation in the palace, and her condition is getting worse. Why don't you take Concubine Fu back to the house to recuperate?"

The emperor and queen are deeply affectionate, and everyone knows it.

Due to the will of the first emperor, Emperor Yuanyou was inconvenient to take the initiative to order the concubines out of the palace. If Fu Ge Lao took the initiative to come forward to play, the situation would be different. It not only does not damage the reputation of the emperor and queen, but also shows the sincerity of the Fu family's concession.

This is also the best way to resolve the current impasse.

Fu Ge Lao's eyes swept over with a heavy face: "Since Concubine Fu has entered the palace, how can she go out of the palace and return to the house to recuperate at will?"

This staff member touched his nose and suddenly did not dare to say anything. I sighed secretly in my heart.

The emperor's attitude has been made clear, Fu Ge Lao is not convinced at this time, how should it end in the future?

Relying on the old and selling the old, there must be a limit! If this stalemate continues, it is strange that the Fu family can get a good deal!

With such an obvious truth, Fu Ge, who has been shrewd all his life, couldn't see it clearly...... This is being in the middle of the game, and being dazzled by power!

Fu Ge Lao pondered for a moment and ordered: "The rumors are so rampant, someone must be instructed by them. You guys find a way to quell the rumors. ”

Several staff members looked at each other, and finally the first staff member who opened his mouth boldly opened his mouth: "There are only two ways to quell the rumors. The first is to confuse the public, the true and the false. The second is to release other rumors to divert everyone's attention and muddy the waters by the way. I don't know what method Elder Ge wants to use?"

Fu Ge Lao said lightly: "Come and ask me for such trivial matters, what's the use of asking for a few of you?"

As soon as these words came out, several staff members could still sit still, and immediately got up to plead guilty.

Fu Ge Lao's voice sounded: "Empress Gu's younger brother Shen Jinyan has now opened a good hall. It's a good thing to want to do good. It's a pity that Shen Gongzi's background is really disgraceful. Such a person should hide in the shadows for the rest of his life and never show his face. He appeared in front of everyone with such a high-sounding appearance, and regarded the law of etiquette as nothing, and in a few days there would be an impeachment in the imperial history. I think the people will also talk about it. ”

The staff immediately understood and bowed down to receive the order.

……

Cui Mansion.

"Master, you've been sick for more than ten days, do you want to stay in the mansion all the time?" asked Mrs. Cui in a low voice.

Cui Shangshu, who "lost his beloved daughter", has never been sick and lies on the bed every day.

These days, Cui Shangshu has been reducing the amount of food. If you raise your face red and go back to court, you will immediately be noticed by everyone that something is wrong.

"Don't worry," Cui Shangshu said slowly: "When Concubine Gu died of illness, Gu Shilang was sick for nearly three months. I've only been in the past ten days, and it's too early to go to court. ”

Mrs. Cui frowned and whispered: "However, the situation in the palace is unknown, and it is rumored that Concubine Fu is frightened, delirious, and has nightmares all day long. The rumors outside spread fiercely, and they all said that Fu Ge Lao secretly instructed the assassin to assassinate the queen's mother...... It was rumored that there was a nose and an eye, and even I was about to believe it. ”

However, the assassin was obviously arranged by the queen's mother!

The golden hairpin is specially made and can be retracted freely.

Of course, Cui Junying is not dead, the chest injury is fake, and the poisoning is also fake. Of course, the dancing girl didn't die.

Cui Junying was taken out of the palace that night, and the dancing girl was also sent out of the capital overnight with Cui Junying, changed her name to her surname, and changed her identity to a new one. After a year or two, I will be able to find a safe family for Cui Junying.

The woman in the house rarely shows up, as long as she is far away from the capital, who can know about Miss Cui Er's resurrection?

Why did something that had been arranged go wrong?

How could it be involved with the Fu family?

Cui Shangshu looked at Mrs. Cui and said meaningfully: "When the matter comes to this point, it's not for you and me to ask more." ”

"You just need to know that our Cui family has jumped out of this pool of troubled waters. The matter of the harem has nothing to do with our Cui family. Our daughter, who died for the Queen's mother. Our Cui family is loyal to the emperor. ”

"The emperor is heavy on Saburo, and Erlang is not worried about having a good future. If there is a vacancy in the cabinet, I, the secretary of the ministry, will have the opportunity to enter the cabinet first. ”

"That's the most important thing. Other things have nothing to do with our Cui family. ”

Mrs. Cui realized something, and only said after a while: "The old man is reasonable. If the Fu family can't think about it, they want to die, it's the Fu family's business. It has nothing to do with our Cui family. ”

Cui Shangshu nodded happily: "That's right." ”

The emperor and queen are like the sky, and they are all powerful.

Fu Ge always wanted to toss, so he let him go. The Cui family will not be stupid!
