Chapter 375: Looking at each other
But he saw a eunuch hurrying towards him surrounded by a group of palace guards, and as soon as the eunuch saw this tense scene, he screamed: "Ouch, what are you doing here?
After persuading the guards on both sides to put down their hands and press the scabbard, the eunuch turned to Jiang Mi and General Li and said, "Three, the hour is not early, Your Majesty is still waiting for you in the main hall." ”
Urged by Father-in-law Zhang, everyone didn't dare to delay, Cui Ziying just helped her grandmother get into the carriage, and hurriedly shouted to Jiang Mi: "Sister Yang, you can sit with us." ”
Jiang Mi was explaining to the guards at this time, and when she turned around and saw the eyes of Cui Ziying and Old Madam Cui, she thought about it, nodded and said, "Okay." ”
Almost as soon as Jiang Mi's good word fell, Mrs. Cui felt relieved. And at the next moment, her eyes became complicated again: the Yang family in front of her had only met with herself twice, how could she feel a sense of security in her heart after hearing that she was sitting in the same car?
Thinking about Mrs. Cui's life, there are really few people who can give her a sense of security, so since Jiang Mi sat down, Mrs. Cui's expression has been very complicated.
Looking at Jiang Mi, who had been in the carriage since she got into the carriage, she closed her eyes and recuperated, Cui Ziying leaned closer to her and asked in a small voice, "Sister Yang, why did Your Majesty call us into the palace?" She was a little scared, so she bit her lips tightly.
Jiang Mi opened her eyes, she glanced at Cui Ziying, couldn't help but reach out and stroke her hair, and said gently: "It should be for the public case of the restaurant that day." ”
Cui Ziying's face turned white and gray.
She grabbed Jiang Mi's sleeve tightly and asked in a trembling voice, "Then Sister Yang, how will Your Majesty try this case?"
Jiang Mi knew what she was worried about, and she was about to speak, when on one side, Old Madam Cui's deep and majestic voice had come down, "The public case of the restaurant?" Ah Ying, what happened to the restaurant that day, what was the truth, are you still ready to hide it from your grandmother?"
It doesn't matter if Mrs. Cui doesn't say this, as soon as she says this, Cui Ziying's face turned so white that she even burst into tears.
Jiang Mi turned her head to look at Old Madam Cui, and she said warmly: "Old Madam, this era is really different from the previous peaceful and prosperous times, what do you think?"
Under the staring gaze of Old Madam Cui, Jiang Mi continued to say softly: "For example, today, there are countless countries, large and small, and those military generals, with some soldiers and horses in their hands, dare to occupy land and claim the title of a country. In the countries established by these illiterate military generals, some of them also exterminated the scribes and scholars, and they also did their best to the famous scholars in the past. Has the old lady heard of this?"
If it weren't for the fact that Old Madam Cui had subconsciously convinced Jiang Mi, with her identity, she would really be impatient to let a junior teach herself like this. She sank her face and said, "What does Mrs. Yang want to say?"
Jiang Mi sighed lightly and said softly: "What the concubine means is that in this world, there is enough persecution inflicted on us by outsiders, and there is no need for the family to be bound by the previous concepts and used to persecute their own heirs." ”
Old Madam Cui understood, she suddenly turned her head to look at Cui Ziying, and asked in a deep voice, "So, Ziying, you were in the restaurant that day?"
When Cui Ziying heard her grandmother's words, her face turned pale in an instant, and she covered her face with her sleeves and sobbed.
Hearing her granddaughter's cry, where did Mrs. Cui not understand? For a moment, her face turned blue and white.
For Mrs. Cui, the heirs of a family like them are the last people to die, and they should die innocently. Troubled times are short-lived, but the inheritance of the family is eternal.
And this concept is also the reason why they knew that Jiang Mi's existence was greatly beneficial to the family, but they did not hesitate to expel her from the clan after suspecting her innocence. In their opinion, as long as the family survives this troubled era, it will be able to continue for hundreds or thousands of years as before, and once the family style changes, even if their family finally carries it over, it will become a laughing stock in the world.
But in the same way, for Old Madam Cui, there are enough dead people in the family, and she really doesn't want to lose any more of the few remaining bloodlines.
Just when Mrs. Cui's face was extremely ugly and hesitant, and Cui Ziying was crying, Jiang Mi reached out and gently stroked Cui Ziying's hair, and she whispered: "Old lady, the most important thing for this person to live in the world is to go with the flow." If you are too stubborn, I am afraid that you will be like the big tree in the storm, because you can't bend your waist, you can only be uprooted by the wind!"
As soon as Jiang Mi's words came out, Mrs. Cui's face changed greatly.
Jiang Mi ignored her cold eyes, and said slowly: "History books are written by victorious people. Maybe the Boling Cui clan also had a lot of such things happen in the troubled times of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties three hundred years ago, but the human nature at that time was dissolute, so they didn't care at all. And then as soon as the world was peaceful, the higher-ranking people waved their hands, and there was a matter of re-establishing the family rules?"
Almost as soon as Jiang Mi's words came out, Old Madam Cui shouted coldly: "Mrs. Yang is cautious!"
Because Jiang Mi was guessing about her ancestors just now, Old Madam Cui's face suddenly pulled up.
Jiang Mi saw that Mrs. Cui didn't want to pay attention to herself anymore, so she looked away, she saw that Cui Ziying seemed to be frightened, so she leaned into her ear and whispered a few words.
It's also strange, I don't know what this Yang said to Cui Ziying, Cui Ziying stopped choking in a blink of an eye, and in a blink of an eye, she slowly looked up at Yang, gradually, Cui Ziying's eyes became brighter and brighter, only to see her nod her head towards Yang, and said in a thick nasal voice: "En!"
At this time, I arrived at the palace gate.
Old Madam Cui slowly got out of the carriage, and as soon as she got out of the carriage, she saw several guards surrounding the Yang family, and then, they bowed their waists and respectfully handed a stack of documents to the Yang family, and the Yang family looked at it casually a few times, and then stuffed it into the sleeve pocket.
In a blink of an eye, Jiang Mi and the three of them entered the palace gate.
Chai Rong was an incorruptible emperor, and he had not been on the throne for a long time, so the palace of Bianliang was built very simply, that is, the courtyards of the previous large families were united and renovated.
When Jiang Mi and the three of them arrived, the inside and outside of the hall were full of civil and military ministers, and as soon as Jiang Mi went up the steps, he met the eyes of the Zhao brothers.
Jiang Mi paused slightly when she walked in front of the Zhao brothers, and she didn't know what she said, but Mrs. Cui found that the pair of brothers who always looked a little deep seemed to smile.
When Jiang Mi and the three entered the main hall, Cui Ziying found that the hall was full of people, and it was the crown prince Chai Zongxun who was standing at the front.
After Jiang Mi and the three of them stood up, Chai Rong on the main seat spoke, and his tone was a little tired and helpless, "Mrs. Yang." ”
Jiang Mi stepped forward in response.
Chai Rong sighed and said slowly: "In the past few days, I have repeatedly heard people tell me about my wife. Speaking of this, he said to a eunuch according to the stack of folds on several cases, "Show these to Madame Yang." ”
"Yes. The eunuch took the fold and strode in front of Jiang Mi.
Jiang Mi stretched out her hand to take the fold, opened a copy and flipped through it.
Cui Ziying was standing not far behind Jiang Mi, she looked up and saw a copy of the recital, saying, "The Yang family is arrogant and domineering, coercing the weak girl of the boudoir to write unbearable documents. Then, she saw the second copy of the memorab, saying, "A merchant woman of the Yang family sent people around to collect information, but I don't know what I wanted. The third part of the recital is to say, "The Yang family is offensive to the concubines of the harem, and their attitude is extremely disrespectful, and they are afraid that they will not be subordinate." ”
Looking at this piece of music one by one, even if Cui Ziying only glanced at it, she felt terrified. Suddenly, Cui Ziying's palms were soaked, she looked up at Chai Rong who looked unknown on the main seat, and felt that if the Yang family was not a woman, she would only be afraid that Chai Rong had ordered her to be killed in court!
Soon, Jiang Mi finished reading the stack.
As the eunuch put the recital away, Chai Rong's faint voice came, "Does Mrs. Yang have anything to say?"
Almost as soon as Chai Rong's words came out, the crown prince and General Li, who were most familiar with his character, as well as the relatives of Concubine Xian, suddenly showed a smile at the same time: With their understanding of Chai Rong, His Majesty said such a thing, it is a killing machine for this Yang family!
For a moment, the temple was extremely quiet.
For a while, Cui Ziying and Mrs. Cui, who were not clear about Chai Rong's character, also felt the panic of killing and catastrophe at this time.
In silence, Jiang Mi took out a stack of documents from his sleeve pocket, bowed respectfully and said, "The concubine does have something to say, and please look at it." She is still so calm at this point, including Chai Zongxun, she can't help but look sideways.
Chai Rong bowed his jaw, and he ordered: "Take it." ”
"Yes. ”
In the blink of an eye, the stack of documents presented by Jiang Mi was placed in front of Chai Rong's case.
Chai Rong just glanced at it casually, and after he looked at Jiang Mi fixedly for a while, he lowered his head and looked at the stack of papers seriously.
And he looked at it very seriously, and it wasn't until more than half an hour later that Chai Rong's deep voice came, "I remember that Mrs. Yang arrived in Bianliang less than a month?" He slowly closed the stack of papers, looked at Jiang Mi and said seriously: "Madame's talent, it is indeed extraordinary!"
As soon as Chai Rong's words came out, the ministers, you look at me, I look at you, and they really can't figure out what the Yang family has offered to Chai Rong, which actually makes him change his style of speech, and instead admires her intelligence.
At this moment, Chai Rong stood up, only to see him pressing the stack of documents with his hand, and ordered in a deep voice: "Okay, the hour is not too early, you Qing family retreat." ”
Yes?
Ahh
The crown prince Chai Zongxun and General Li, as well as the ministers, were stunned.
Chai Rong just waved his hand, and he said in a hearty voice: "Okay, don't be staggered, go down quickly." ”
With that, he waved away the eunuch who had rushed forward to help, picked up the stack of papers, and strode out.
Amid the buzz in the hall, Jiang Mi and the three of them also withdrew from the main hall.
Until she got into the carriage, Cui Ziying was still confused, the carriage was driving, and the old lady Cui, who had been looking at Jiang Mi, suddenly asked politely: "The old body really can't understand, just now Madame is clearly full of enemies, that is, Your Majesty also has a prejudice against Madame in her heart, I don't know what Madame did, so that Your Majesty let Madame go without asking anything?" She was really polite at this time, and even respectful. When Jiang Mi looked up at Old Madam Cui, she found that this old woman, who had always judged people by her identity, looked at her with a kind of respect in her eyes at this moment
