Chapter 172
Tang Yuan looked at Shen Xi, and then looked at Lantern Festival. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
He always felt that he didn't understand what the master and Lantern Xiao were talking about.
Shen Xi directly ignored this stupid little guy and nodded approvingly, "You're right, then...... The five girls of the Xu Mansion, what troubles are you encountering this time?"
Lantern Xiao said that Xu Yujian wanted to force Xu Yujian to intervene in Shen Xi's refusal to return to the mansion, and finally said: "For this matter, the old lady of the Hou Mansion is sick, and she led the five girls to the Zhuangzi at the foot of Linghua Mountain in the suburbs of Beijing early this morning to recuperate. ”
Shen Xi's face turned a little cold when he heard this.
The Wang family said that he couldn't move the county lord of Anyang, and he didn't move him, but he started the idea of someone who had nothing to do with this matter.
Shen Xi was silent for a moment, and then asked, "How is the investigation of that matter?"
Saying "that incident", Shen Xi's face was so cold that it seemed as if he could scrape off a layer of frost at any time.
This is probably what Shen Xi really looks like after these five years.
At the mention of this, Tang Yuan also put away the doubts on his face, and said in a deep voice: "Back to the master, the investigation has been almost done, if we present these investigations to the emperor, the emperor will definitely not reprimand you because of the Guogong Mansion, but if the emperor knows about these ......"
Shen Xi also knew Tang Yuan's doubts.
But he raised his lips and said with a little sarcasm: "Do you think that the emperor really knows nothing about what happened in the Chengguo Mansion? If this is the case, how could I, the emperor's uncle, fight his way out of the encirclement of several brothers and finally win the throne?"
Emperor Jingtai, who is now in power, is the second son of the current Empress Dowager Hua.
The Empress Dowager Hua was not favored by the first emperor Emperor Qiande, but because of the rules of the ancestors handed down from the ancestors, the eldest son of the Empress Dowager Hua was still established as the crown prince, which is now the prince of Minghua in people's mouths.
In the ordinary back house, it is natural that the mother is more precious than the son, but in the palace, it is the son who is precious to the mother, if it were not for this, the Prince Minghua, who was not very liked by Emperor Qiande at that time, would never have been awarded the title of prince.
Originally, since Prince Minghua had become the crown prince, as long as he didn't make any stupid moves, he would definitely be able to inherit the throne smoothly, but who would have thought that Prince Minghua did not take the wrong path, but he didn't wait to inherit the throne, and died early because of a sudden serious illness.
The crown prince was born, which was naturally a great joy for the other princes at that time, which meant that they had such an opportunity when they could never sit on that dragon chair.
As a result, several princes each brought their own supporters and made the court into a miasma.
At that time, today's Emperor Jingtai was the youngest and weakest of the princes.
But who would have thought that this most unnoticeable one would be able to fight his way out of the encirclement step by step, and finally sit on the chair that all princes want to sit on.
Emperor Jingtai's means can be seen from this.
Tang Yuan was stunned when he heard Shen Xi's words.
If Emperor Jingtai has long been clear about the affairs of the Chengguo Mansion, then how could his own master almost die in the hands of an aunt who was born in a girl?
Shen Xi could see that Tang Yuan was wondering about something, but he didn't say a word about it.
He is now the only male in Mu Zong's lineage, even if he is not surnamed Mu, how can the royal family not be wary of him?
Even if decades have passed since Muzong's affair is now, the people have never broken off the throne of Anzong's lineage to get such a remark that the name is not right.
I have heard too many words like this, and it would be strange if Emperor Jingtai had no defense against him.
It is impossible for Emperor Jingtai to have no one in the Chengguo Mansion, when Aunt Tao calculated that she wanted Shen Xi's life, Emperor Jingtai was afraid that eighty percent of them knew, as for why they didn't stop it?
Scold.
As soon as Shen Xi died, Mu Zong's lineage had no bloodline except for the county lord of Anyang, with the relationship between the county lord of Anyang and Shen Zhaolin, if something really happened to Shen Xi, where could he still give birth to another son?
A childless county lord, even if he has the blood of Mu Zong's lineage, what can he be worth in the eyes of Emperor Jingtai?
In this way, you don't have to do it yourself, and you won't attract any criticism, so you can cut off the bloodline of Mu Zong's lineage, how can Emperor Jingtai stop it?
It's just that the people of Liaocheng are really going to make a fuss, and they will directly push the culprit out, isn't it okay?
Shen Xi guessed that this was probably what Emperor Jingtai thought at that time.
Since Emperor Jingtai has seen the affairs of the Chengguo Mansion in his eyes, he can naturally know more.
What did Shen Xi find, where was the accident?
Even if he didn't send these to Emperor Jingtai, Emperor Jingtai must know it, but for some reason he didn't say it.
Thinking of this, Shen Xi said: "Sort out all these things I found, and I will immediately enter the palace and present these to the emperor." ”
Tangyuan immediately responded with a "yes".
After giving these orders, Shen Xi's topic changed again, and the expression on his face became relaxed, "After handing these over to the emperor, I should also go out to avoid the limelight, and when we come back, presumably the emperor can also deal with it." ”
Tangyuan and Lantern Festival bowed their heads and promised.
Then, Shen Xi said seemingly inadvertently: "In my private property, at the foot of Linghua Mountain, there is also a Zhuangzi, right?"
Lantern Xiao responded immediately: "If you go back to the master, there is indeed a Zhuangzi located at the foot of Linghua Mountain under the master's name. ”
Shen Xi nodded with satisfaction, "I heard that the beauty of Qiu Ju in Linghua Mountain is famous in the capital, and now it happens to be about to reach Chongyang, so let's choose this Zhuangzi to live for a few days." ”
Lantern Xiao nodded, already thinking about how to arrange this trip.
But Tang Yuan looked at his master with a puzzled expression, and then looked at Lantern Festival.
"Master......" Tangyuan was very puzzled, "Why don't you remember, there is a Zhuang ...... located at the foot of Linghua Mountain under the master's name"
Before Tang Yuan's words were finished, he was covered by Lantern Xiao.
Lantern Xiao's face remained unchanged, and he bowed to Shen Xi, "Master, the little one will go down and arrange to go to Zhuangzi to live in a small house." ”
Then he couldn't help but drag the rice balls and walked out, leaving only the whimper of the rice balls.
It wasn't until he got out of the yard that Lantern Xiao let go.
Tang Yuan first took two breaths, and then glared at Lantern Xiao with an angry face, "Lantern Festival, we have been waiting for the master together for so many years, why are you a little affectionate, why do you want to cover me in front of the master?"
Lantern Xiao looked at the rice balls with a foolish look.
It was also the first time he knew that Tang Yuan had served his master for so many years, and he still didn't know how to look at his master's eyes.
patted Tang Yuan on the shoulder, and Lan Xiao said sympathetically: "Tang Yuan, do you know how you will die in the future?"
