Chapter 92: Bad News

Before the four wives and the others left, another express letter was sent back from the capital, which was brought back by Zhen Mingjie's handmaid Li An, but the old lady Zhen was frightened, for fear that Zhen Mingjie would be a good person. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

When Zhen Wanyi was called to Changkang Hospital, all the people who stayed at home in the house came, and Li An was standing in the middle of the hall, and the fourth wife had a pretty face and slightly red eyes. Zhen Wenyi was also worried, and when she looked at Zhen Wanyi, the trace of pity in her eyes made Zhen Wanyi's heart sink, and she looked at Ang Li, could it be that Zhen Ming had done something outstanding?

The fourth wife pulled Zhen Wanyi over, and before she could speak, tears fell again.

Old lady Zhen frowned when she saw it, "Don't worry, the fourth daughter-in-law, the matter has not been decided, don't be scared of yourself first." ”

Seeing this, Zhen Wanyi asked in a low voice, "Mother, what happened?" But the sixth brother? ”

The fourth lady shook her head and wiped her face, "It's not your sixth brother, Li An hurried back to report the news, saying that Mu Zigui was taken away by Dali Temple." ”

Zhen Wanyi was taken aback, "Dali Temple? What happened to Brother Mu? Didn't he just get into the Jinshi? ”

Li An turned around and saluted first, "Miss Jiu, when the little one came back, I only heard that His Majesty personally ordered the arrest of Mu Gongzi, and at that time he took people from the third master's house, but it was scary, Hu Dahai beside Mu Gongzi also fought with the people of Dali Temple, but he was stopped by Mu Gongzi." ”

"Did the people from Dali Temple say what it was for? Everyone else is okay, right? ”

Li An shook his head, "The third master's family, the sixth master, and the prince of Qi are all fine, and the people in Dali Temple didn't say anything, they only said that they were arrested by His Majesty's order, and they didn't say anything else. ”

Zhen Wanyi frowned, this Li An didn't know anything, they were so far away, it was even more out of reach, not to mention that it was His Majesty the Emperor who gave the order, so the people involved were afraid and didn't dare to let go.

The fourth lady shouted anxiously, "Father, you should think of a way, Mu Zigui is a newly admitted jinshi who has not seen His Majesty, why did he offend His Majesty and let Dali Temple take it down?" ”

Old lady Zhen also had a gloomy face, "Yinshan should have seen Your Majesty, after the examination, it will be the palace examination, and the first-class and second-class jinshi will enter the palace to face the saint, and then Your Majesty will personally examine and point out the top three, could it be that Yinshan offended Your Majesty in the palace examination?" ”

Li An replied: "It shouldn't be possible, when the palace test came back, Mu Gongzi was not abnormal, and the third master also inquired, and Mu Gongzi performed very well during the palace test and did not anger His Majesty." ”

"Then you have to find out why Yinshan let His Majesty take people? By the way, why did you come back when you weren't in the capital? ”

Hearing the old lady's question, Li An hurriedly said: "It was the third master who asked the little one to come back to report the news, so that the masters were panicked when they heard the news from outside." Then let the little one bring a handwritten letter from the old lady back to Beijing. ”

Old lady Zhen was puzzled: "Handwritten book? To whom? ”

"In the past, Lord Xu Simin of the Imperial Historical Observatory is now in Dali Temple, and the third master wants to ask you to write a letter to Lord Xu, and the third master can ask him for help, at least you can see people first."

Old Man Zhen first raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then said, "He's all in charge of the temple now?" The old man will go to write a letter later, you go down to rest first, and take the letter tomorrow morning and rush to the capital. ”

After Li An retreated, he breathed a sigh of relief and comforted everyone: "This Xu Simin has done things under my office, and he has a hard temper, with him, Mu Zigui will at least not suffer innocent crimes." ”

The fourth lady deliberately showed a relaxed expression on her face, "That's good, if you want to come to Mu Zigui, you won't make any big deals, at most, you will offend a powerful person by committing a book business, if there is an acquaintance to help with it, the apology will be a big thing, and a small matter." ”

Old Man Zhen nodded, "Okay, let's disperse." After speaking, he took the lead in going out, and went directly to the study to see the direction.

Zhen Wanyi walked in the shade of the tree with the fourth wife, and the fourth wife patted the back of Zhen Wanyi's hand, "Don't worry too much, with your grandfather here, it will be fine." ”

Zhen Wanyi just nodded, she is not a little girl who doesn't know the world at all, there are only ten second-class jinshi in this subject, and Mu Zigui is ranked sixth in the grades, shouldn't such a new jinshi with no background and no qualifications be the object of competition among those faction-lined bigwigs? Besides, Mu Zigui's temperament is not a flamboyant one, on the contrary, he is still very cautious, Zhen Wanyi didn't believe what the fourth wife said about the comfort words that offended the scholarly anger and collided with the nobles, not to mention that Mu Zigui was imprisoned by the emperor's personal order. Just, what is it for?

Looking at Zhen Wanyi's bitter little face, the fourth wife was very distressed and regretted it very much, "If I knew this, I shouldn't have set this family business for you in the first place, if that Mu Zigui has three long and two short, what can you do?" ”

Zhen Wanyi looked up in amazement, looking at her mother's flustered appearance, she was moved and amused in her heart, "Mother, don't be scared of yourself, you just said that it was okay, maybe as you said, this is just a false alarm on us." Maybe by the time Li An returns to the capital, Brother Mu will already come out. ”

The fourth lady wiped the corners of her eyes, this is really a disaster from the sky.

Li An disappeared on the post road alone and one horse, and the old lady of the Zhen family pressed down the itinerary of the fourth master and the fourth wife, and now the affairs of the capital have not yet been decided, so it is better not to step into it first.

At the end of July, a letter arrived in Qinghe City with Di Bao through the post road, when the old lady Zhen received the letter from the servant, Zhen Wanyi was counting the days with her hands, at this time Zhen Mingjie's letter should have crossed the Qinghe River, and it should be there in four or five days.

When the fourth wife entered the Yunyi Building, Zhen Wanyi was in a daze, and when she saw someone coming, she hurriedly got up to greet her, "Why did my mother come over?" ”

The fourth lady handed over the letter in her hand with an ugly face, Zhen Wanyi's heart sank, and she tightened her head before taking the letter and sitting on the Luohan bed with the fourth wife, only to look carefully.

This is written by Xu Simin, and it is no wonder that the official post is so long earlier than Zhen Wanyi's calculation. It's just that after reading it, Zhen Wanyi was stunned there, and Mu Zigui was not only not wanton, but also handed over to Zongzheng Temple. Xu Simin also expressed his doubts in his heart in the letter, after His Majesty the Emperor asked Dali Temple to take away Mu Zigui, he did not give him a charge, nor did he let him be arraigned, but only detained him, and sent an imperial doctor to the prison to check Mu Zigui's pulse and take care of Zhou Xi. But after July 20 was transferred to Zongzheng Temple, he was also beyond the reach of the whip. After all, Zongzheng Temple is in charge of the royal internal affairs, not for others to interfere in. (To be continued.) )
