In the south study room of the palace, the lights are bright, and the current saint Xuanhan is frowning. For the great cause of the country, I have worked hard to find out all the opportunities, and the daily review of the folds is piled up enough to be one person high, and I can only sleep for two hours a day at most, and I have to get up and go to the court before dawn, and I have never been hindered by rain or shine. It is said that the saint is the ninety-five, above ten thousand people, sitting on mountains and rivers, but behind it is unimaginable hard work for ordinary people.

Prime Minister Nie had just left the South Study and was stayed in the palace by him. For the sake of the Xiao family, there are some things that have to be done, even if they have to bury a few lives.

As an emperor, he not only has boundless power, but also has the power of one person to deal with the jackals, tigers and leopards around him. Above the court, there are many gangs, and many henchmen led by those ministers of the humerus stock control his decision-making and control the situation in the court, and sometimes even his high-ranking emperor has to compromise and seek perfection.

Sometimes, for the sake of their own interests, those important ministers pull together the ministers and force each other with great principles, so that he has to rely on them. Who still said that when the emperor is at ease, he wants the wind to be the wind and the rain? It's just a puppet with a will.

He is by no means such an emperor, nor will he be such an emperor on his son.

In the Changchun Palace, Queen Wei took off her high knotted bun, although she was about forty years old, her long waterfall hair was still black and bright, she stood and let the personal palace maid change into a Su Aya bedclothes, ": Is the saint still in the south study?" ”

"The south study where Nie Cheng left when Prime Minister Nie Cheng left, the saint is still reviewing the folds at this time." The palace maid replied.

"Prime Minister Nie? He really has good intentions for his daughter and grandson. "Queen Wei saw that Ju Cao behind her did not reply, yes, how dare she criticize a servant girl in the court, and she talked about it again": Yesterday, Nie Guifei mentioned the marriage of the eldest prince to the saint, and she thought about it very beautifully, and as soon as she came, she opened her mouth to ask for marriage and marry the county lord of Linghui. I can't even guess the mind of the saint, because she has to be spoiled for so many years, the older she gets, the more confused she becomes, which is ridiculous. ”

Prime Minister Nie Cheng holds a lot of power, and the saint has to be afraid of him a little, this dynasty has not set up a prince, and Nie Cheng's relationship puts pressure on the saint, how can such an assertive king as the saint be at the mercy of others? If you want to get rid of it and then it's too late, how can you let Zhen Guohou add wings to him?

The eldest prince had to sigh at the beauty this time.

"According to the master's mother, the eldest prince must not ask for a beautiful woman because of Prime Minister Nie, so what should the five princes ask for? There should be a happy event in the palace. "Today, the princes came to say goodbye, and Queen Wei talked about the marriage of the five princes. The princes in the palace have complicated customs to marry concubines, and it takes a long time to prepare, and they generally have to get married two or three years before the wedding, and they will come to the door to marry when they leave the palace to build a mansion.

The fifth prince, who has always been indifferent, didn't want to say that if the queen mother really wants to get engaged to me, then let me choose, I think the girl of the Ji family is good.

These five princes grew up in Changchun Palace since childhood, and Empress Wei had no children for many years, and she was pregnant with her first son in her early years and died in her womb. Later, Concubine De went due to illness, leaving her only son, the saint thanked Concubine De's affection, and pity the five princes who lost their mother at a young age, so they took him to the queen to raise, the queen had no children, and regarded the five princes as her own, and after many years, the queen finally got the six princes, grateful for the kindness of God, and became better and better for the five princes.

"Yan Chen, this child, has never asked for the mourning family for many years, this girl of the Ji family is the granddaughter of the former Ji Taifu, but she is also a woman from a family, from a decent background, although she is younger, it is okay, I will mention it to the saint tomorrow. It's really been a long time since this palace was lively. ”

In front of the openwork window, the moonlight sprinkled through the shark. Because of the long years of holding the sword and the rough hand rubbing the delicate embroidery, crookedly embroidered the word "Ning", at first glance is a lazy and does not love female workers. Today, the queen suddenly asked about marriage, and Yan Chen's mind inexplicably remembered the delicate little woman again. I've been carrying this handkerchief with me for a few months, and I took it out for the first time today, and I'm afraid that the owner of the handkerchief should be in a hurry. Seeing things and thinking about people, this made him suddenly think of a poem, one side of Supa sent lovesickness, horizontal and vertical silk. Yan Chen hurriedly shook his head and said with a wry smile, he was really a demonic barrier.

On the other end, Master Ji sat at the table and finally stayed up until dawn. I didn't sleep all night, my eyes were widowed, my face was pale, my face was tired, and I aged a few years overnight.

No, he can't sit still.

Mrs. Ji also couldn't sleep all night, she didn't dare to tell the old lady about what her brother said yesterday, it was just speculation, the old lady just reacted, if she knew the truth, how could she bear it.

Mrs. Ji's elder brother entered the Linshu Pavilion early in the morning.

As soon as Lord Yang entered the door, he asked, "How did you go to the Prime Minister's Mansion yesterday?" Is there a way for the Prime Minister? ”

"Where did it come from, I haven't seen the face of this prime minister. When I went, he had already been summoned to the palace by the Holy Lord, and he had not returned all night. ”

"How coincidentally?" Few courtiers stayed in the palace, except for discussing military affairs all night, but recently there was no disaster and no war, and it was calm and peaceful, how could the prime minister be retained by the saint? "Isn't it that the Holy One already knows about you and me!"

Ji Yihuai had this idea for a long time, but he didn't dare to make this inference, and then thought about it: "No, no, Song Thief's hands and feet should not be so fast, since he has chips in his hand, he is not in a hurry, and if the saint knows about this, it will not be Prime Minister Nie Cheng who will be kept." ”

"My brother-in-law is right, it's me who messed up. When do you plan to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion again? ”

"I have sent someone to guard the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, just wait for the Prime Minister to come back and someone will come to report to me. I'm on top here, but you should go back to Qingzhou earlier, there is no one to preside over there, I'm afraid there will be chaos again. Ji Yihuai said.

"What my brother-in-law said is right, the account book is enough for our heads, if something is stabbed out again, it will really be a catastrophe......" Lord Yang didn't keep his lunch, so he said goodbye to Mrs. Ji and returned to Qingzhou.

Even if Mrs. Ji was full of worries, she didn't dare to go to the study to disturb Master Ji. This is a big disaster, and she can't help the woman in the house, so she can only stop blocking the master.

"Madam, a few aunts and sisters have come to say goodbye.

"Let them in." Even if the sky is going to fall tomorrow, in the face of a group of children, you still have to cheer up.

Ying Ning and a few sisters invited An, and when they sat down, they saw that something was wrong with their mother, "Mother didn't sleep well last night?" ”

Ji's mother deliberately pounced on a layer of powder today, covered her face, and pretended to be fine, but she was still seen by her youngest daughter, "The weather is getting cooler, and I cough at night, but I don't care, I add clothes and drink a cup of medicine, and I will be fine." ”

The second sister asked, "I heard that my uncle went back early in the morning?" Why are you in such a hurry? ”

Mrs. Ji forced a smile, only thinking that this group of children was really good, and it was her heart and soul that she couldn't let them suffer a little bit of hardship, "Xu is Qingzhou has something to do, your uncle is the third grade, and he is busy with affairs, so he will go back first." He just said goodbye to you in person, and when we go to Qingzhou next year, he will definitely entertain us well. ”

Ying Ning felt that this matter was not as easy as her mother said, her mother frowned, and she had something on her mind at a glance, but everything was easy to bring. It's just that what happened, even she and her second sister refused to say?

"Mother, we are all daughters of the Ji family, and we were born to share the glory and disgrace with the Ji family. What the hell is going on in this Jifu? Even if we can't help, we should know it. ”

The Yang family didn't expect the seventh sister to say such a thing. Seriously, I carefully looked at the girls here, they have indeed grown up, and I hid it so much that it made them speculate. But if you really want to tell the truth, Yang doesn't know where to start, after all, my brother didn't say much, and he didn't know much about it, if he said it all, it would inevitably cause panic, she couldn't do it, and Master Ji didn't allow her to do it.

"Ning'er, you think too much, what can you do. It's just that your father encountered something in the officialdom, and he didn't sleep well yesterday, which caused me to be affected. ”

Ying Ning will be suspicious, she lives in the inner courtyard, and she doesn't know about her father's stay in Linshuge overnight, but her uncle suddenly came to Beijing and left Beijing in a hurry without saying goodbye, and her mother was so uneasy, so she didn't think about it. Although she doesn't know about government affairs, her uncle is a salt transportation history, how could he rush to Kyoto to discuss important matters with her father? What kind of important thing is this, making it difficult for my father to sleep, my uncle is full of worries, and even my mother is full of thoughts?

How did Miss Ren ask, Ji's mother was still tight-lipped, it was enough for her to bear it silently, why was she willing to let the little girl worry and be afraid.

Ying Ning went back full of doubts, the mother refused to say, she couldn't do it, and she had nowhere to ask.

Master Ji was in a hurry in the study, and even the barley and red date porridge sent by Mrs. Ji was cold. I couldn't wait, and just when I was about to open the door and go out, Zhao Shilai reported that Xiaoliu was coming and Xiangye was back.

Ji Yihuai handed over the fold early in the morning and asked for leave, saying that he was not feeling well today and could not go to court. In order to avoid the limelight, in order to find a solution. As soon as he heard Zhao Shilai's report, he immediately opened the door and went out, ": Come with me to the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”

In the study of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Prime Minister Nie Cheng had just come back from the court, and last night the saint came to him to discuss the matter of establishing the prince, although this matter was discussed with him, but the final result, before the saint died, no one knew, and it was too late to know. He couldn't guess what the Holy Will was. It's just that he doesn't dare to reveal half of the words of the great prince between the lines, and the so-called recommendation to avoid suspicion naturally can't say such words from his mouth, which will arouse the suspicion of the saints.

The prime minister's wife was waiting for the prime minister to change his clothes, and someone outside came to report that the imperial historian Master Ji was here, and he was waiting outside.

What Lord Ji asked for this time, Prime Minister Nie Cheng probably guessed seven or eight points. Today's court, General Song Shen ruthlessly participated in the history of Ji Yu, those words are to put him to death, but the evidence has not yet reached the hands of the saint. Is it deliberately unjustly provoked out of nothing, or is someone deliberately manipulating behind it? It seems to be a copy of the Ginseng Adult, but it is actually aimed at him. Fortunately, today Master Ji is not there, so he can't confront him face to face, and he is maneuvering around it, and the other party is suffering from not being able to produce evidence, so the saint also refutes General Song's reference. If this happens, it won't be that simple.

Master Ji was invited into the study of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Meet Xiangye." Ji Yihuai bowed.

"Master Ji doesn't need to be polite, have you heard about today's court?"

"Then the Song thief is planning to harm me!"

Prime Minister Nie hurriedly asked, "Do you have a handle in his hand?" ”

Ji Yihuai replied: "This is also strange, Lord Yang has an account book missing, I always thought that the old thief of the Song Dynasty did it, but today the saint rejected his reference book because he could not produce evidence, I really can't think of who did it except him." ”

"Lost?" As soon as Prime Minister Nie heard that the account book was lost, his anger surged up, "What did you do?" That's a net worth of life, how can you lose it? "This is a bad thing, he is also involved in this account book, if he really wants to be investigated, he has also committed the crime of shielding, although the crime is not to death, but at least the evening is not guaranteed, and it is not appropriate to make this prime minister.

This prime minister is in a hurry, Master Ji is more anxious than him, the prime minister is cautious, every time he makes a move, he enters the account in his name, if the east window incident happens, the first person to bear the brunt is himself! "Yes, yes, the lower officials were negligent, but this account book has been lost, and it is useless to pursue it, can the prime minister have a remedy?"

Even if it is the scheming Prime Minister Nie Cheng, he can't guess who did it at this time. If anyone wants to expose him, then he can stand up in the court today, if it is not to bring him down, where is the intention to steal the account books? "I don't even know what can be done about this."

Ji Yihuai was anxious when he heard Prime Minister Nie Cheng say this: "This disappearing ledger is like a dark arrow behind the back, if I don't find it, how can I eat and sleep, I only feel that my head is on the waistband of my pants all day long"

"Are you in a hurry now?" Prime Minister Nie Cheng snorted, "I see that this thing must not have reached the hands of the saint yet, I will go to talk to Wei Zhengshi, he is responsible for the saint's folds, if there is anything abnormal, do something from it, and change the fold." In addition, this book must be found, and I can only rely on my secret guard...... "Xiangye even sent out the secret guard, this will be saved......

Hearing Prime Minister Nie Cheng say this, Ji Yihuai's heart was relaxed, he had always been in the same boat as Prime Minister Nie Cheng, and he knew that Xiang Ye would not stand idly by even if he was for himself.

"It's all up to Xiangye."

"Okay, you go back quickly, if you don't have anything important, don't come to my house, and you have to be very careful to hide your letters from others. In addition, when it comes to going to court, you only say that you are not feeling well, so don't come forward for these two days. ”

"I see. Then the next official will take his leave first! "When Ji Yihuai said goodbye to Prime Minister Nie Cheng and left the Prime Minister's Mansion and got into his own carriage, he exhaled heavily, God must bless everything well.

At the end of the Prime Minister's Mansion, in a corner of the courtyard wall, a dark-clothed guard disappeared.

Xuan Han threw the secret report in his hand into the incense burner, and the tissue paper instantly turned to ashes. He had been planning for a long time, and the long line was so fruitful that it seemed that the big fish was about to come to the surface.
