Chapter 140: Flattery is supreme

is obviously talking about Yuan Zishan's disaster relief in ** Mountain, but Yuan Zishan always goes around the east and west, and also pulls Mu Qinyi in, as if Mu Yuanan only needs to say something, he is protecting his own minister, and bullying him, a foreign minister. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Mu Yuanan frowned, his throne was not easy to come by, and a lot of the credit was due to the fact that Yuan Zishan, the leader of the Praetorian Guard in the capital at that time, supported him, and the road to power was bumpy, if there was no loyal and brave general, it was tantamount to a dagger without struggle in his hand, and it was precisely because of Yuan Zishan's loyalty that Mu Yuanan had never been stingy with any rewards, even his own sister, who was overly publicized in the palace, he did not blame much, but only occasionally mentioned it.

I only hope that Yuan Zishan will not look at himself now that his wings are stiff, and he begins to have other ideas.

The dialogue between Yuan Zishan and Mu Yuan'an, even the plateau could not be present to serve, only knew that Yuan Zishan had stayed for a long time this time, and only came out after about an hour and a half, and looked displeased, Gao Yuan Zi cautiously led Yuan Zishan out of the gate, Yuan Zishan came by sedan chair, and the eunuch who carried the sedan chair saw Yuan Zishan coming, and was busy bowing down, Yuan Zishan snorted coldly, and stepped over, but suddenly looked back at the plateau, the plateau just made a low shape, without saying a word, Yuan Zishan said as if mocking:" General Ben was wrong before, Gonggong Gao was not pampered in the palace. ”

Gao Yuan just bowed his body more respectfully, and he also understood in his heart that Yuan Zishan would definitely not say anything to apologize to him seriously, and sure enough, Yuan Zishan snorted disdain from his nose, and said: "After all, to please the emperor like a pug is also a high father-in-law who has to work hard." ”

Gao Yuan's voice was still slow: "The miscellaneous family is fortunate to be able to serve the emperor, it is the luck of the miscellaneous family, and naturally they should do their best." ”

Yuan Zishan didn't say more, got up the sedan chair and left, Xiao Yuzi looked at Yuan Zishan's back and felt unhappy, he had followed his master for so long, and it was the first time he saw someone dare to speak to the master like this, and pouted: "It's just a murderous butcher, but he dares to turn around like this and scold the master." ”

Gao Yuan didn't care: "Xiao Yuzi, remember, this General Yuan is not scolding your master and me alone, but the eunuchs in the palace, and he has scolded them all." ”

Xiao Yuzi was stunned for a moment, but then he understood, he only felt that his master was too scheming, if he spread Yuan Zishan's words to his master, and exaggerated it a little, he would say that those who were eunuchs were pugs to please their masters, and this Yuan Zishan offended a large group of eunuchs.

The reason why Gao Yuan is not angry is that he looked at Yuan Zishan's face today, and he thought that he had hit a wall with the emperor, and sure enough, on the second day, there was a will handed down, probably that Yuan Zishan General Yuan was in the ** Mountain disaster relief matter, in order to dig Tai Sui and did not rescue the trapped victims in time, but considering that the Queen Mother's birthday has just passed, the Queen Mother has always been benevolent, so she just punished Yuan Zishan for three months.

However, Mu Yuanan did not give an order, and Yuan Zishan could not continue to deal with the affairs of the army, so there was still a steady stream of military affairs directly to the General's Mansion, and even many officials would visit the General's Mansion every day.

Although this punishment seems insignificant, for Yuan Zishan, he finally persuaded the emperor to leave Prince Su's three thousand dragon and tiger riders at that time, and then let the three thousand dragon and tiger riders go to dig Tai Sui, just to push this unknown crime to the dragon and tiger riders, and then move out of a dragon and tiger rider who did not obey his own orders, naturally he could make these three thousand elite soldiers criticized, but he didn't know what was wrong with this, and someone among his own people actually turned against the water and took the initiative to prove that it was indeed his own order at that time.

At that time, there were not many people left when he gave the order, they were all some personal veteran generals who followed him all the year round, just a check, Yuan Zishan had confidence in his heart, but anyone who betrayed him would not end well.

Sure enough, before Yuan Zishan began to investigate thoroughly, a veteran under him suddenly left the capital with his family, and his whereabouts are still unknown, Yuan Zishan was furious in the general's mansion for this matter, and broke a piece of Yuezhou blue and white porcelain given by the emperor before, and his hand was cut by porcelain fragments.

However, Yuan Zishan has been grounded because of the previous incident, and Mu Yuanan doesn't want to pursue the matter of a vase, but Yuan Zishan obviously touched Mu Yuanan's bottom line for the first time this time, although Mu Yuanan did not have a seizure, he had already drawn a line for Yuan Zishan in his heart.

On the third day after Jinglan Palace caught fire, everything was almost packed up, Mu Chenghuang went to ask Empress Dowager Pei for peace as usual, counting, tomorrow is the wedding period of the eldest princess, and the eldest princess will inevitably come today, Yu Dong opened the curtain and invited Mu Chenghuang to enter, and before the front foot entered the door, he heard Concubine Xi's voice sound softly: "Queen Mother, is this strength okay?"

When Mu Chenghuang entered, Concubine Xi actually sat next to the Empress Dowager Pei, took off her armor, and personally held her calf for the Empress Dowager Pei, and the little palace maid who was supposed to massage the Empress Dowager Pei on the side stood aside, a little redundant, the eldest princess also came, like Mu Chenghuang, even if she sat quietly on the side, she couldn't help but look at Concubine Xi from time to time, and I don't know what Concubine Xi meant by being so attentive today.

Empress Dowager Pei never asked, and when she saw Mu Chenghuang coming, she greeted Mu Chenghuang kindly, and then half-closed her eyes, enjoying Concubine Xi's service.

Concubine Xi Xu rarely did such a massage before, and after a while, the fingertips had no strength, although they still held on, but the strength of the fingers became significantly smaller, and the Empress Dowager Pei could feel it, even Mu Chenghuang and the eldest princess, who were drinking tea and eating snacks on the side, could find that Concubine Xi had no strength, but the two were still chatting by themselves.

Speaking of Mu Chenghuang's drunkenness at the banquet of Empress Dowager Pei a few days ago, most of them were jokes and laughter, but when it comes to the back, it is inevitable to sigh a few words, fortunately, Mu Chenghuang temporarily lived in Qianli Pond, otherwise the fire would be bigger, and it would burn to Mu Chenghuang's bedroom.

"Can you find out the cause of the fire?" asked Empress Dowager Pei.

"I don't know yet," Mu Chenghuang replied, "but it is estimated that it should be dry and dry, and there is fertilizer in the back garden, and the weather itself is easy to burn when it is hot, although the fire is under control, but the things are extremely fragmented, and nothing can be found." Mu Chenghuang did not inform the Empress Dowager Pei of what had been investigated, firstly, there was no direct evidence that Ying Baolin sent someone to set fire, and secondly, now that Ying Baolin is pregnant, if she is really convicted, the emperor will not seriously punish her, not to mention that she is unharmed, and when the time comes, Ying Baolin casually pushes which of her palace maids on, this is a startling snake, this matter, Mu Chenghuang is not ready to put it on the table, but it does not mean that she swallowed this breath, this matter, she will slowly calculate it with Ying Baolin.

Concubine Xi also listened all the time, occasionally interjecting a few words, all of which were words of concern, and she looked like she cared about Mu Chenghuang very much.

Not long after, Yu Dong led two little palace maids in to serve tea, one of them held a tray in his hand, and two teas were placed in it, one of which served tea to Mu Chenghuang and the eldest princess, and the other steadily walked to the Empress Dowager Pei and Concubine Xi to serve tea.

"This is my brother's subordinates specially brought from Fuzhou Zhengshan small species, I heard, this tea tree is only three plants in the whole mountain, every year to bear tea, that is a thousand gold is hard to find, brother has been waiting for this under the kindness, this is to visit relatives in Beijing, this relatives have only sent a small box of tea, but to the brother sent two boxes, the brother left a box, this left a box, is to let people bring into the palace, the concubine is dull, do not know how to taste tea, know that the queen mother loves to drink tea, so, will take this box all, filial piety to the queen mother. ”

As soon as Concubine Xi said this, Mu Chenghuang and the eldest princess played with the lid of the tea slightly, but they didn't know whether to drink it or not, Concubine Xi took this tea, obviously she wanted to speak for Yuan Zishan, but she didn't know that it was for that matter, if it was for Yuan Zishan when he was angry and broke the blue and white porcelain given by the emperor, Mu Yuanan didn't care much about this matter, but he didn't care that it was fake, and asked the Empress Dowager Pei to persuade a few words in Mu Yuanan's ear, maybe he could really make Mu Yuanan's anger really disappear, but if it was for this grounding thing, it must not have been said, Mu Yuanan's punishment was already very light。

Mu Chenghuang looked at the face of the Empress Dowager Pei, but the Empress Dowager Pei calmly uncovered the lid of the tea, tasted it carefully, and praised: "Sure enough, it is a small species of Fuzhou Zhengshan with one or two thousand gold, but although the mourning family loves tea, now that they are older, this excessively rich tea is also not drinkable, but I heard that Cheng Huang has been studying the tea ceremony recently, and the tea brewed is very in line with the mind of the mourning family. ”

Mu Chenghuang was flattered, and on the other hand, he felt that Empress Dowager Pei was not digging a pit for herself, Concubine Xi originally resented herself, and now she also transferred such a precious tea to herself, which was another knife in Concubine Xi's heart, but after thinking about it, anyway, Concubine Xi already hated herself to the bone, and it was the same whether she took the tea or not, so she simply curtsied and thanked her facelessly, and smiled at Concubine Xi and thanked her.

Concubine Xi's smiling return gift obviously told Mu Chenghuang how unhappy she was in her heart.

But anyway, Empress Dowager Pei still drank tea, Concubine Xi still said the words of intercession for Yuan Zishan, and she didn't dare to be grounded, just said that this Yuezhou blue and white porcelain was really not deliberately broken by Yuan Zishan, Empress Dowager Pei Xu expected, just nodded all the way, and didn't make much comments, but this tea is not less drunk, to be honest, this tea is indeed the best of the best, Mu Chenghuang praised in his heart again and again, he can drink such a good tea in his life, and it is not in vain to come to this world.

Seeing the harmonious atmosphere, Concubine Xi said again: "Isn't Mu You, the son of the Grand Governor of the Lingnan Metropolitan Mansion, going to Beijing?" Friends who read books, you can search for "", you can find this site as soon as possible.
