59. Tanuki for the prince (11)
Zhao Rongrong's sharp accusation reminded everyone that a completely unaware person had just broken into the room; And Zhao Rongrong's words also reminded the emperor of the Queen Mother's eyes that were crying blind because of herself.
"Please ask the emperor and the mother to forgive the little girl for the crime of disrespect!" The eighth prince suddenly knelt on the ground, bowed his body, and said sincerely.
Di Niangniang also knelt down and followed the eighth prince to plead guilty; At the same time, he pulled Zhao Rongrong's skirt again, and said in a low voice: "Don't kneel down quickly and ask the mother for guilt!" ”
"I don't want it." Zhao Rongrong looked at the eighth prince and Di Niangniang, who had fallen to the ground with a look of grievance, and then looked at the emperor who was silently holding the hand of the blind old woman; secretly guessed in his heart what happened, so that the emperor's brother, who had always loved him very much, would not even speak to him......
Zhao Rongrong pursed the corners of her mouth, looking at the blind old woman she had always looked down on and calling her parents, and suddenly felt cold all over her body, and a feeling she had never experienced spread all over her body; Zhao Rongrong turned her head blankly, and saw Yu Xiaoyu standing silently on the side, thinking that the reason why everyone's temperament changed so much was that even Yu Xiaoyu could know it, but she didn't know it; Thinking of running out that day, Zhanzhao didn't even chase her, so Zhao Rongrong couldn't help but get angry: "Yu Xiaoyu, you leave my house quickly, you are not welcome in my house!" ”
Yu Xiaoyu, who was pointed at by Zhao Rongrong, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Obey, county lord." ”
Nodding at Di Niangniang, Yu Xiaoyu turned around and left the room, guarding outside to prevent others from accidentally breaking in; And Zhao Rongrong was dragged to another room by Di Niangniang to listen to Di Niangniang talk about the things of the year; The emperor summoned the imperial physician Lu Zheng to check the pulse of the queen mother to see if her eyes could still be cured......
Two hours later, the emperor called everyone into the room again, only this time there was another Zhao Rongrong with a shocked face.
"Brother Emperor," Zhao Rongrong flattened her mouth, looked at the Queen Mother, looked at Di Niangniang, and said with low eyebrows: "I'm sorry, I was wrong." ”
"It's okay," the Queen Mother said with a smile: "Brother Wang, brother and sister, you two are not allowed to embarrass this child, do you hear?" ”
"The minister/concubine obeys the order."
Zhao Rongrong stood aside stupidly, glaring at Xiaoyu from time to time.
The emperor held the hand of the queen mother and said to the eighth prince: "Father, this matter, I have decided to hand it over to Yin Baozheng of Kaifeng Mansion for trial, and I will give an explanation to the queen mother." ”
"Your Majesty."
The emperor nodded, and then said: "In addition, the queen mother still has to live in the Nanqing Palace for the time being; When the case is over, I will use the due honor guard to pick up my mother and return to the court. ”
"The minister will not pay the emperor's trust."
"Yu's ......"
Yu Xiaoyu hurriedly took a step forward and knelt on the ground, waiting for the emperor's next words.
"The queen mother has been taking care of you all the way," the emperor said with a smile, "When the matter is over, I will definitely reward you well." ”
"Thank you for the emperor's reward!" Yu Xiaoyu lowered his head and said, "A qiē is what a courtier should do." ”
"For a while," the emperor nodded: "You can go back to Kaifeng Mansion with Chen Lin; When Lord Bao hears the case, the queen mother will go to Kaifeng Mansion to observe, and you need to take more care of it. ”
"Yes!" Hearing that he could finally leave Nanqing Palace and return to Kaifeng Mansion, Yu Xiaoyu was really happy. After all, in her heart, compared to the heavy reward promised by the emperor for the brave husband (brave woman), Kaifeng Mansion is more secure and attractive.
The emperor accompanied the queen mother and talked for a while, and then reluctantly left the Nanqing Palace, but left the imperial physician Lu Zheng to treat the queen mother's eyes.
Yu Xiaoyu waited in the Nanqing Palace, waiting for Chen Lin to wait for the emperor to return to the palace, and then take the holy decree to Kaifeng Mansion to deliver the decree.
"Mrs. Zhan," Imperial Physician Lu Zheng cautiously approached Yu Xiaoyu and said softly, "Can you take a step to speak?" ”
"Imperial Doctor Lu," Yu Xiaoyu smiled, "Is there something wrong?" ”
"Excuse me," Lu Zheng looked left and right, and asked cautiously, "Who is that old lady?" ”
"This ......" Yu Xiaoyu blinked: "You'll know later." Is it possible for the old lady's eyes to regain her sight? ”
Lu Zheng nodded: "The old lady's eyes are not hurt to the root, it is still possible to regain her sight." ”
Yu Xiaoyu bowed his head lightly, and was about to wait for Chen Lin at the gate of the Nanqing Palace, when Lu Zheng opened his mouth again: "I heard that Mrs. Zhan's surname is Yu, and she is from Lingnan?" ”
"Yes," Yu Xiaoyu looked back at Lu Zheng and nodded gently; However, he didn't speak anymore, just waiting for Lu Zheng to say the next thing.
Lu Zheng looked at Yu Xiaoyu, thought for a while and said, "Mrs. Zhan's surname reminds me of a person, a friend who has been gone for a long time!" ”
Yu Xiaoyu blinked: "There are so many people with the surname Yu in the world, why should adults be sad." ”
After a while, Lu Zheng said with a smile: "The official is fine, go first." ”
Yu Xiaoyu shook his head, didn't take Lu Zheng's words to heart, and went directly to the gate of the Nanqing Palace, waiting for Chen Lin's arrival.
When Chen Lin came back, Yu Xiaoyu hurriedly greeted him, and looked at a person who was walking side by side with Chen Lin and wearing the same color as Chen Lin: "Father-in-law Chen, who is this?" ”
"This is Guo Huai Guo Gonggong in Renshou Palace," Chen Lin forcibly suppressed the hatred for Guo Huai in his heart and said: "Guo Huai, this is the wife of Zhan Zhaozhan, the fourth rank of the imperial guard with a sword. ”
"Hello Father-in-law Guo!" Yu Xiaoyu nodded with a smile, and said the pre-ordered words: "Gonggong Chen, it's troublesome for the two of you, the eighth prince sent me back to Kaifeng Mansion." ”
"It's okay!" Chen Lin replied with a smile.
Guo Huai nodded arrogantly at Yu Xiaoyu and did not speak. The secret calculation in his heart said: "Zhanzhao's woman doesn't know when she will catch the Nanqing Palace again; It seems that I have to discuss it with the Queen Mother when I go back; However, this bag of sunspots is in full swing, and the emperor not only did not punish him, but asked me and Chen Lin to announce the decree and give a reward; If it goes on like this, I don't know when the princess's revenge will be avenged! ”
All the way, in Guo Huai's cranky thoughts, Yu Xiaoyu and Chen Lin's tacit, they arrived at Kaifeng Mansion.
Kaifeng Mansion has already set up an incense case, waiting to welcome the arrival of the holy decree.
Seeing that Yu Xiaoyu actually came back with Chen Lin and Guo Huai, Zhan Zhao was happy at first, and then began to worry, worried about whether Yu Xiaoyu had caused some trouble?
Yu Xiaoyu nodded lightly to Lord Bao, and then looked at Chen Lin promptly, indicating that the emperor already knew the truth about the tanuki changing the prince.
Guo Huai took the holy decree that the little eunuch behind him had been holding in his hand, and shook it: "Bao Zheng takes the decree!" ”
Yu Xiaoyu hurriedly knelt down with the people of Kaifeng Mansion.
Seeing Master Bao, Zhanzhao and others kneeling in front of him, Guo Huai actually had a perverted sense of superiority, and he couldn't help but clear his throat: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor said: There is a eunuch Guo Huai today......"
Looking at Guo Huai's suddenly pale face, Chen Lin sneered and took the holy decree from Guo Huai's hand, and then read: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: There is a eunuch Guo Huai today, who has a bad plot and a bad ......."
A holy decree, Guo Huai was in a cold sweat when he heard it, he didn't expect that the old things of more than 20 years ago would be turned over at this moment.
Taking advantage of the fact that everyone was listening attentively to the content of the holy decree and not paying attention to him, Guo Huai quietly moved a few steps to the side, pulled his legs and ran out.
Yu Xiaoyu has been kneeling at the end, just inadvertently blocking the only way for Guo Huai to escape; Seeing that Guo Huai was planning to escape, Yu Xiaoyu quietly stretched out his leg and tripped, directly tripping Guo Huai to the ground.
Coincidentally, as soon as Guo Huai fell, Chen Lin's edict was finished: "Lord Bao, don't accept the edict and thank you!" ”
"The minister Bao Zheng took the order." Master Bao respectfully accepted the holy decree, turned his head to Zhan Zhao and the others behind him and said, "Don't take down that Guo Huai quickly!" ”
Zhan Zhao and the others reacted and quickly grabbed Guo Huai, who was paralyzed on the ground.
Chen Lin sneered and said to Guo Huai: "Father-in-law Guo, I didn't expect it, paper can't contain fire after all." ”
"The miscellaneous family wants to see the queen mother," Guo Huai, who was pressed by Wang Chao and Ma Han's twisted arms, shouted: "The miscellaneous family wants to see the queen mother!" ”
Lord Bao originally planned to directly try the case on the spot, but Chen Lin directly asked Guo Huai to be taken down, and told Lord Bao that the emperor and the queen mother would observe the trial of the case.
Chen Lin turned his head to look at Lord Bao and said, "Lord Bao, the emperor has handed over this matter to you, you must try this case well!" ”
"Please also ask your father-in-law to tell the emperor," Lord Bao arched his hand in the direction of the palace, and said loudly: "The minister Bao Zhengding will live up to the emperor's expectations, and will hear this case clearly, and vow to return justice to the world and a queen mother in the world." ”
"The miscellaneous family will definitely repeat Lord Bao's words to the emperor." Chen Lin took Master Bao's hand and said with a smile: "Lord Bao, if there is a need for miscellaneous families, miscellaneous families will do their best." ”
"Father-in-law, I may need you to testify in court then."
"The miscellaneous family must be here." Chen Lin stopped: "Master Bao, please stay, and the miscellaneous family will go back first." ”
"Father-in-law walks slowly."
When Chen Lin left Kaifeng Mansion with a group of entourage, Zhanzhao had the opportunity to talk to Yu Xiaoyu: "What the hell is going on, when did you know?" ”
Yu Xiaoyu stared at Master Bao tightly: "What's the matter, you should ask Master Bao who is?" Xiaoyu also wants to ask Mr. Bao, why did he do this? ”
Master Bao stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Mrs. Zhan has already thought of it?" ”
Yu Xiaoyu pouted: "What's the use of wanting to come again?" It's good to barely survive! ”
"Mrs. Zhan's words are serious," Master Bao smiled with a smile on his face: "With your intelligence, how could you not have imagined that since we met the Queen Mother at Caozhou Bridge, we were already destined to be unable to get out of this matter." ”
Yu Xiaoyu didn't expect this, and couldn't help clenching his fists: "Then the adult still asked me to be a maid?" ”
"At that time, the government really couldn't find a suitable candidate - after all, the identity of the Queen Mother was too special, and once the news leaked, none of us could afford it."
Yu Xiaoyu let go of his fist and muttered in a low voice: "So I am the ghost who died for me." ”
Master Bao smiled awkwardly and said to Zhan Zhao: "Zhan Guard, you accompany Mrs. Zhan to have a good chat, and the mansion will go and collect the holy decree." ”
Looking at Mr. Bao and his entourage, they left the lobby faster and faster, and Yu Xiaoyu approached Zhanzhao aggrievedly: "Lord Zhan, I was bullied." ”
Zhanzhao gently hugged Yu Xiaoyu, full of apologies: "Because of me, I made you suffer." ”
"Huh?" Yu Xiaoyu raised his head and looked at Zhanzhao puzzled.
Seeing Zhan Zhao touching his head silently, Yu Xiaoyu pouted and said, "Lord Zhan, you don't know, the eighth prince is so treacherous. He obviously has a way to help the Queen Mother, but he just doesn't speak by himself, he has to force me to find a way; However, I didn't let him get any cheapness, everything happened in his Nanqing Palace, did he think he could run? ”
Zhan Zhao remembered the situation when he saw Yu Xiaoyu in the Nanqing Palace before: "Last time, in the Nanqing Palace, did you already know?" Why don't you sue me? ”
"Sue you," Yu Xiaoyu said with a smile, "What can you do?" It's just one more person to worry about. ”
Yu Xiaoyu's distrust made Zhanzhao feel deeply frustrated: "Xiaoyu, you should believe me!" ”
"I believe it!" Yu Xiaoyu nodded: "Otherwise, how could I let you chase Zhao Rongrong?" You must know that she is the daughter of the Eighth Prince and Di Niangniang......"
"After I chased him out that day," Zhanzhao said about the events of that day, "I have been following from a distance......
"Lord Zhan," Yu Xiaoyu didn't want to listen to Zhao Rongrong's matter, so he simply interrupted Zhanzhao's words: "You invite me to a big meal!" ”
