Chapter 165: Zheng Jieyu

Without Ma Gonggong's company, Mo Yu walked faster, and the oil-paper umbrella was lowered. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

A pair of honor drivers in front of him walked towards him, and if there was a place to hide around, Mo Yu had no choice but to bow his head and salute with his legs half-bent, secretly hoping that the honor driver would be able to walk quickly.

The master who passed in front of her, sitting on the throne and being held high, was wearing a purple palace dress, smeared with the popular blood-red Danko, pink and high-haired, and looked ahead. She hadn't paid attention to the person who was bending down at her feet, but the corners of her eyes swept slightly as she passed by.

Ben didn't care too much, but the ghost sent the gods, and the ceremonial driver had already passed her, but she still turned her head to look at the back of the palace maid leaving at her feet, and she was suspicious. This back image is very similar to someone, but shouldn't that person be grounded at this moment?

"Stop." She shouted.

Mo Yu's heart was tight again after she had just escaped, she was afraid of something, and she wanted to let people know that she had run out secretly, and it would become okay. But even if you run now, you can't escape. So I had to turn around, bow my head and bend my body and say, "The slave maid asks Lian Jieyu for peace." ”

Lian Jieyu's original surname is Zheng and she is Zheng Xi's daughter. Lotus is a name given by the emperor. Since the death of Concubine De, Princess Jingde has changed her mother, this Lian Jieyu. Moyu didn't have a deep friendship with her, but they had only met a few times.

Lian Jieyu's majestic voice came from overhead, "Raise your head." ”

"The slave maid has an ugly face, and she is afraid that Jieyu's eyes will be dirty, and she hopes that Jieyu will forgive her sins."

"Presumptuous." Lian Jieyu's personal palace maid shouted: "In front of Jieyu, you have no dignity, what crime should you be guilty of?" Jieyu asks you to raise your head, you have to raise your head. ”

Mo Yu sneered in her heart, if she really raised her head, she wouldn't scare them. Just as Mo Yu was struggling with whether to raise his head, a voice came from not far away.

"Yo, what's wrong with my sister? This rainy day is so angry? ”

Although Mo Yu was the owner who couldn't see this voice, he was finally relieved to hear his voice. is also a ceremonial driver, the former is obviously slightly inferior to the latter in terms of number and momentum, which shows the level of position between the two.

"The concubine asks for peace to the concubine."

Concubine Shu's cold voice came, and said, "She is the palace maid in my palace, and I asked her to get some things from the Internal Affairs Office just now." What, my sister is interested in her? ”

Lian Jieyu said a little funny: "Oh, yes? The people in my sister's palace are really unusual, and this road doesn't seem to be the way to go to the Internal Affairs Office! ”

Mo Yu's heart sank, and he bent around and said: "Master, the slave maid originally wanted to go to the Internal Affairs Office, and he didn't want to meet Ma Gonggong halfway, so he asked the slave and maid to go to the imperial dining room and tell the imperial chef, saying that the emperor wanted to drink a bowl of mung bean soup at noon, so the slave and maid would pass by here." If Jieyu doesn't believe it, she can go to Ma Gonggong to ask what is going on. ”

Go to Gonggong Ma and ask what is going on, that is, if you can't get along with the emperor, who would dare? Lian Jieyu sneered and said, "My sister was wrong just now, the minions in my sister's palace are all sharp-toothed. ”

"My sister laughed, the minions in the palace are all rough people who can only dance and make guns, if my sister is interested one day, you can go to the palace to ask for a lesson or two, and the palace will definitely teach you."

"No need, my sister still has to go to the queen to say goodbye, so I won't bother my sister." After Lian Jieyu finished speaking, she waved her hand slightly. The slave carrying the ceremonial driver willingly gave way and let the concubine's ceremonial driver pass first.

Mo Yu followed behind Concubine Shu's ceremonial car, still holding her oil-paper umbrella with her head down, unable to see half of her face. Far away, Mo Yu could still feel Lian Jieyu's gaze on her, which was very uncomfortable.

"Stop."

After walking around a corner, Concubine Shu shouted. The little eunuch carrying the instrument frame heard the master shouting to stop, so he stopped and lowered the honor car. Concubine Shu stood up and ordered the little eunuchs who carried the car to go back first. Then he walked up to Moyu. Said with a little reproach: "Why did you run out?" ”

Mo Yu raised her head, her whole face was revealed under the oil-paper umbrella, and said with a smile: "If I say that I am bored in the palace and want to come out for a walk, will Niang Niang believe it?" ”

"What do you think? Even if you want to go to the imperial dining room? ”

"Hehe, I don't care about the eyes of the lady concubine."

Concubine Shu said helplessly: "I'm not smart, but I'm not stupid either. You must have come out at this time for yesterday morning? ”

Mo Yu stepped forward and said, "Although I didn't kill the person, it was a living life. In her short life, many things have not been seen yet, and there are too many beautiful things that have not had time to be experienced, so Xiang Xiaoyu died, which is somewhat regrettable. ”

"O woman in this palace! You can't escape fate. The best time of her life was before she stepped through this palace door. After entering the palace, what I encountered was not beautiful, but invisible gunsmoke. It's just that for her, if she didn't enter the palace, the ending would still be the same, and the Zhang family would still fall. I also see it now, and it is not necessarily a bad thing that the emperor cut my father's military power in the first place. At least my father still has an official name, and although he has no authority, he can still save the life and honor of the family. ”

"Niangniang and the general are both open-minded people who never stick to fame. What happens when you pass by, even if you fight for your head and bleed, you still can't take anything away in the end. ”

Concubine Shu turned her head and smiled: "You are not very old, but you speak with a straight eye." ”

"Let the lady smile, it's just that when I'm bored, I just read a few scriptures."

"What you say makes sense. Hey, where did you go just now, how did you come from the direction of Renming Hall? ”

Mo Yu explained: "I went to be the gentleman of Liangshang in Renming Hall just now, and it was indeed Gonggong Ma who came with him, but when something happened later, he left first." ”

Concubine Shu was shocked and said: "You ran to Renming Palace, could it be that Zhang Jieyu's matter is related to the Renming Palace?" ”

Mo Yu shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it's more or less related!" ”

"This matter is really complicated, the queen is involved."

"So Concubine Niangniang, don't mention this matter in front of people, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

Moyu kindly reminded her, but Concubine Shu was wrong, and said: "Moyu, how can I be a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, you look down on me too much." ”

When they reached a crossroads, Mo Yu stopped and said with a smile: "No, Concubine Shu misunderstood what I meant." This matter is really not allowed to interfere. ”

"Why?"

"Lady Niangniang, you should trust me. I have survived so many winds and waves, what else can stump me, I have the ability to save myself. ”

Concubine Shu thought about it, "But you are alone, and you are always a little weaker." ”

"Otherwise, Concubine Shu will help me advise the queen mother that I will thoroughly search the entire harem."

"Search the entire harem?" Concubine Shu was surprised: "This is not a trivial matter! ”

"That's why I want the help of the lady! Since Zhang Jieyu was poisoned, there must have been some evidence left in the murderer's hands. If you find out this evidence, won't you be able to clear my name? ”

Concubine Shu happily agreed: "Okay, you are smarter than me, I will listen to you." I'll talk to the queen in a moment. ”

Mo Yu shook his head and said, "No, I want you to talk about it tomorrow morning, it's not the time yet." She didn't know what the emperor meant.

"Why?"

Mo Yu tilted his head and smiled, "I can't tell you yet, but you'll know when the time comes." ”

"You girls, I don't know what to say about you." Concubine Shu is a bold person, and she speaks funny. "Then where are you going now, back to the palace?"

Mo Yu shook his head and said, "I'm going to Wende Palace, and I have to ask the emperor about some things in person." ”

"Then you have to be careful, the emperor has not been in a very good mood recently."

"Okay, I see, thank you for reminding me."

In this palace, Concubine Shu is a person who treats her sincerely. It's just a pity that the red face was broken before the old grace was broken, and let her remember alone in this big palace.

**********

The Wende Hall is still as majestic and towering as ever, the heavy hall door is large, and you can see the golden and brilliant furnishings inside when you get closer.

When was the last time I was here, I think it's been a long time! It was so long that she couldn't even remember.

He still sat behind the bookcase, his brows furrowed, looking down at the notebook in his hand, and occasionally the cinnabar pen drew a few circles on it and dropped a few words. Engrossed and meticulous, he didn't even notice when she came in.

Ye Tian said that although he is not as good as Qin Shi Huang, he is comparable to Liu Bang.

Unconsciously, the footsteps had already walked over, and Mo Yu stood beside him, looking at the fold in front of him. It was a report submitted by Sikong about the displacement of people in a certain state and county due to floods, and asked the imperial court to allocate silver and reduce taxes.

"It's back, grind!"

He treated her as Ma Xing.

Slender Jade took the inkstone in his hand and was about to polish the ink, but when he saw him raise his head suddenly, he said in surprise: "Why are you?" ”

Mo Yu lowered his head, rubbed the ink in his hand, and said softly: "It's boring to stay in the palace, so come out for a walk." ”

The emperor looked behind Mo Yu, didn't see Ma Xing, and asked, "Where is Grandpa Ma?" ”

"I've sent him to the prison to do something."

He put down the pen in his hand, moved to the other side of the chair, pointed to his side, and said, "Come and sit!" ”

Mo Yu didn't shirk either, walked over and sat down, picked up the fold in front of him and looked at it, and said, "Tianze County, is it a county under the jurisdiction of Yuan Shiyi?" ”

"Hmm. When the Tianjiang Dam was destroyed, Tianze County was the most severely affected. Funding for disaster relief every year, and building dikes every year, I am tired of dealing with this kind of thing, but it is also the most headache for me. I really have a good relationship with you, and I'm annoyed that you're here. Why don't you give me an idea? ”

Mo Yu put down the fold and said, "The emperor can even collapse the Zhang family, what is this matter?" ”

"The news is very good! It seems that the guards I sent to the official Jade Immortal Palace are very familiar with your maid. ”

"Really?" Mo Yu pretended to be stupid and said, "I thought the emperor asked them to tell me!" ”

He stretched out his hand, took her into his arms, and sighed, "I have wronged you." ”

A slap in the face, and then a sweet date. Regardless of whether she lives or dies, now that she has such a comfort, Mo Yu sneered in her heart, is she so easy to coax?

"How is Luo Ying's investigation going?"

The emperor pointed to the stack of materials on the table, which was brought to her by Ma Gong just now. "It's all written in this, haven't you seen it?"

Mo Yu shook his head and said, "Then the emperor thinks, who will be the murderer?" ”

He stood up and walked to the opposite window, looking at the drizzle outside, and the coldness in his eyes was revealed. "Moyu, you said it, the centipede has to hit its head, which is the fastest way to kill it."

Now above this court, isn't the centipede head the prime minister? Mo Yu stood up and walked behind him and asked, "Is the emperor sure?" ”

"I don't know."

Mo Yu stood side by side with him, looked out the window at the drizzle, and said, "Now that Concubine De is gone, there is no one in the Wang family in the harem." "If something happens to the Wang family, I don't know what Zhen'er will think. Her intelligence must also be associated with her, where should the friendship between them go when the time comes?

"There is no one in the Wang family, but there is still the Zheng family."

The Zheng family? Mo Yu's heart was cold, Lian Jieyu. It's Lian Jieyu who was talking to her just now, Moyu doesn't know much about this woman, that is, the number of times they have met, ten fingers can be counted.

Mo Yu turned around and sat down on the couch under the window, face to face with him. said: "Last year, the son of the Wang family married the daughter of the Zheng family and became a family of in-laws. Zheng Xi is in charge of the Ministry of Engineering, presumably the matter of the Tianjiang Dam is inseparable from him, and some of the silver that is scavenged every year is probably also transported to the Wang family. ”

"Zheng Xi is treacherous and cunning, and he does things well, which is really difficult to deal with."

"Since you have done it, you will definitely leave evidence, and the emperor can't be too anxious."

The emperor turned around and sat down, turned his head to her and said, "The affairs in the palace will be hard for you, and I will handle the affairs above the court by myself." ”

"Hmph, as if I was willing."

He took her hands, wrapped her small and cold hands in his thick hands, and sighed: "I know that it is immoral to threaten you like this, but I have no choice, in this harem, I trust you and Concubine Shu the most, but Concubine Shu does not have a brain like you." So, I have to wronged you. ”

Little by little, Mo Yu pulled out his palm and met his eyes, as if she saw a string of flames suddenly rising in his cold and gloomy eyes, and the flames were getting stronger and hotter. Then she saw a man in the flames, whose face kept magnifying, and kept getting closer and closer to herself. She shuddered, panicking, for she found that the person in the flames was herself.

"Moyu, Moyu."

She suddenly came to her senses, and was shocked to realize that a cold sweat broke out behind her back. What she had just seen was just an illusion, but why did she think it was so real? Will one day, she too be burned to death like her hallucinating self?

"What's wrong with you? What do you think? He asked.

"It's nothing, it's just that I listened to the emperor's words just now, and I feel uncomfortable."

The emperor patted him on the shoulder helplessly and said, "I asked you to do these things, and I feel very uncomfortable in my heart. ”

Hmph, he will feel uncomfortable in his heart, it is really strange that there are many things, especially this year. Mo Yu stood up and turned her head to look out the window. But when he saw the abrupt red in the sky, his face changed abruptly. She hurriedly ran out of the Wende Hall and came to the eaves, and sure enough, she saw that the little red came from the direction of the Jade Immortal Palace.

"What's wrong? What happened? The emperor saw her look strange and ran out with her. Looking in the direction she was looking, she saw a red cloth fluttering under the sky in the distance, and asked curiously, "What is that?" ”

"There should be an uninvited guest in the Jade Immortal Palace."

"Uninvited guests?" The emperor said suspiciously, "Didn't I say that no one can enter or leave the Jade Immortal Palace?" How can anyone still go. ”

Mo Yu said in a deep voice: "Don't forget, the emperor, there is still one person in this harem who can not listen to your holy decree." ”

"The Queen Mother?"

"The Queen Mother has a token given by the emperor in her hand, and she can go anywhere."

The emperor was still puzzled and asked, "But what is the Queen Mother doing in the Jade Immortal Palace at this time?" Is it to find you, or to find Concubine Xian? ”

The Queen Mother shouldn't go to the Jade Immortal Palace for no reason, what is she going to the Jade Immortal Palace for? Mo Yu suddenly remembered the last words she heard the queen say in Renming Palace, "The evidence has long been in her palace." ”

What evidence will be in her palace, and when did the queen put the evidence in her palace? And what kind of evidence will it be? Could it be the evidence that she "killed" Zhang Jieyu? Zhang Jieyu died of the poison of quinine. A flash flashed in Mo Yu's mind, quinine, black pearl.

"Your Majesty, I have to rush back now."

When the emperor saw that she was leaving, he hurriedly said, "Moyu, do you need me to do anything?" ”

Mo Yu turned his head, smiled, shook his head, and said, "Your Majesty, if I die today, for the sake of me helping you so much, fulfill our original agreement." ”

He looked at her back as she turned and flipped away, like a dream, he could see it but couldn't grasp it. Her last smile was the second time he had seen her, the first time on the street a few years ago, when she smiled at the little boy who had stolen her things, and it was a heartfelt smile, and it was so picturesque. Today, it was her second sincere smile to him. But that smile was full of determination and never returned. (To be continued.) )
