Chapter 57: Partisanship
By the time Xue Wenfu returned to Guanghua with the Criminal Department, it was already the beginning of the day. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Min Yuan waited anxiously, and was relieved to see that he had finally returned.
Hurriedly greeted him and helped him change into civilian clothes, and Xue Wenfu showed a smile on his face: "Just let the subordinates do this kind of thing." ”
Min Yuan didn't listen to him, he helped him change it in three times and two times, and another maid came in with water, she twisted the veil and helped him clean his face, so that people went down, and the couple sat on the kang together and talked.
Xue Wenfu shook Min Yuan's hand, knowing that this was Min Yuan's desire to make him feel lighter, but it was also very useful.
"I entered the palace this afternoon and told my mother about it, and the queen mother said that she would look at the royal brother's side, so you don't have to worry too much. ”
Xue Wenfu smiled, his heart slightly warm. No matter how messy and chaotic these things are, when he thinks of having such a considerate and noble and elegant wife at home, he has the courage to fight against them.
He patted Minyuan's hand and said, "Thank you, madam." ”
Min Yuan's eyes also glowed with some brilliance, and his worries dissipated a lot. This marriage was obtained by her countless efforts and hardships, and for the rest of her life, she wanted to use it to protect this family, and no one would want to destroy it.
"It's a big deal, but the relationship with our Ministry of Industry is not very close, so you can rest assured, I'll be fine. ”
Min Yuan was a little incredulous: "Then why did you come back so late?"
Xue Wenfu sighed and told Min Yuan what happened in the palace today, Jin Shuimen and the Ministry of Industry.
When facing the saint today, Huang Zheng and Chen He, with their excellent acting skills, have already led the disaster to the prefect of Hanyang Mansion, although the saint may not be fully convinced, but the vigilance against the two of them has been eliminated a lot, and the next thing, but look at the results of the investigation.
However, there are also many people from Song Jingran in the Criminal Department, and if he says that he can find out something terrible, he doesn't believe it. It's just that this matter is very widely implicated, and the Holy Authority may not hand it over to the Criminal Department......
When Min Yuan heard about Xue Wenli, he couldn't help asking, "Wenfu, do you think the fourth uncle has been involved in this matter?"
Xue Wenfu was silent, and after a long while, he said, "Compared to Zuo Qin, I still believe in the fourth brother more." Over the years, he has never done anything out of the ordinary, and he has helped the princelings without a head or a brain, I don't believe it.
It's just that...... I think Zuo Qin's behavior today is also a little strange, his previous words are clearly confident...... But if it is said that Xiao Si stole my official seal, it is unreasonable......"
Min Yuan nodded when he heard this: "Your official seal has always been carried with you, and it will only be temporarily placed in the study when you are resting." The fourth uncle hasn't been a guest for such a long time, where can I have the opportunity to use your official seal? If it is said that there are ghosts in the house...... It was the servants of the world who were guarding the study, and there were guards in the palace and my guards outside watching in turn, so I don't think it's possible. ”
After a while, he said: "Let's check this matter, after all, it is difficult to prevent thieves, and if there is really any inappropriate person among them, it will be a big trouble to put it aside in the future." ”
"Then I'm sorry for you, Madame. Xue Wenfu glanced at her with a smile when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "Since you have said so, I should also check on Xiao Si's side, Huang Zheng suddenly mentioned him, it is really a little strange." ”
"Could it be that they just want to blame the fourth uncle and let your brothers get separated?" Min Yuan hurriedly reminded him again, she knew that he had always valued brotherhood, and she didn't want to make the brothers dislike because of his woman's opinion.
Xue Wenfu stood up, took Min Yuan's hand, and said, "It's okay, I'll find out, if Xiao Si hadn't done such a thing, I wouldn't let those who framed him have a good time." A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes as he spoke.
Seeing that the matter was over, Min Yuan ordered someone to serve the meal.
Xue Wenfu was busy all day, and he was also a little hungry, so he ate several bowls of rice before stopping.
The couple went out for a walk together.
Min Yuan looked at the gurgling water on the edge of the water pavilion, and couldn't help but be distracted, and after a while, he asked softly: "Wen Fu, this time, are we going to tear our faces with the prince?"
Xue Wenfu raised his eyes and said with a faint smile: "Originally, I had never been close, with the prince's temperament, if I don't take refuge in him, I will be an enemy of him, and I have two hearts, so it doesn't hurt to tear my face this time." ”
Min Yuan sighed lightly when he heard this: "Over the years, he has also frequently handed olive branches to the Xue family and me, but I have never been willing to accept it. Whenever I think of my deceased imperial sister-in-law and the current Song family, my heart is not very happy...... Am I too persistent? In the royal family, I am still full of kindness...... It was also me who affected the Xue family. ”
Xue Wenfu hugged her and said, "Where is your fault? It's those people who are too heartless...... If you want to pursue power with one mind and don't care about anything, what's the point of living like this?"
He was really grateful to the Zhou family back then. If it weren't for Zhou's insistence on taking her to Biansai, getting out of the control of Concubine Yu, trying his best to explain her, and treating her sincerely, let her forget those dirty things, maybe Min Yuan would no longer have hope for him and agree to marry him......
The cute girl who grew up with his childhood sweetheart, but he could only watch her become less and less like himself, more and more closed herself, that kind of anxiety, he still can't forget. It was the Zhou family that made her still have a sincerity and a glimmer of sunshine in her heart, so that he later had the opportunity to completely dispel the haze in her heart and marry her as she wished.
Min Yuan was a little relieved when he heard this, but his brows were still frowning: "It's just that in this way, in case the second child ascends to the big treasure in the next day, and he comes to settle accounts after the autumn, wouldn't it involve Zhaoyuan and them?" But speaking of which, I think the second child is really not a material to be a prince, and I don't want to support him, not just because of the Song family." ”
Xue Wenfu nodded, and also sighed: "The prince's qualifications are actually quite mediocre. With the support of Song Jingran's group, he has not made any great achievements over the years, and the tasks assigned to him by the Holy Lord have only been completed. But the people of that group still boasted everywhere and held him up to the sky......"
"Wen Fu," she paused, "Then what hope do you think Brother Yun has?"
He shook his head: "It's hard to say. Over the years, he has been following the rules, not pinching the tip or being competitive, he can't see the depth, and he doesn't know if his qualifications are mediocre, he really doesn't have that heart, or he is just hiding himself......"
After speaking, he glanced at Min Yuan and persuaded: "Although Empress Yuan is kind to us, this matter cannot only depend on affection, but also on the mind and ability of the third prince himself." ”
Min Yuan had no choice but to nod: "That's it, I just looked at the two sisters and brothers, it's really pitiful, Anyang is better, and the queen mother has always been protected like an eyeball." But Brother Yun'er has been fighting alone, and the Song family doesn't know how many times he has been secretly harmed, and it is really not easy to hold on until now......"
Xue Wen took her shoulders back: "Which of the royal children is easier? You don't see much better than him." He looked at the sky: "It's not early, let's go back and rest early, I still have to get up early tomorrow, as for the matter of Lichu, let's think about it in the long run." ”
Min Yuan bowed his head, and the two went back to the upper room.
