55: Temptation
Early the next morning, the old lady went to Rong Jiang's house, and stayed there without moving, lest the granddaughter's condition worsen, and Rong Yu really put on a first-class national uniform and went all the way to the palace.
Rong Yu entered the palace, no one dared to stop him, but he couldn't enter the Taiji Hall - he was no longer in the court, and if he wanted to enter the palace, he had to nod and agree with Zhao Heng before he could enter the palace.
But there are Zheng Yong, Zhou Youshen, and Zhao Liang in this Taiji Palace, even if Zhao Heng doesn't want to let him in, he has to nod and call for him to enter the hall.
Rong Yu entered the hall and finished worshipping, leaned to the side and stood in front of Zheng Yong.
Zhao Heng sent Wu Guixiang, the son of the country, and exiled him to Gupan Mountain, all the family property was confiscated, and all the relatives in the three clothes were sold into slavery, which can be regarded as a complete decline inside and out. And what about Qin Zhi? Because his son was the top of the second-class rank, he was directly sentenced to death, which can be regarded as an explanation to the students of the world.
He sent Wu Guixiang and Qin Zhi down, naturally no one said anything, but he lost this will, and immediately called Cao Bin to the palace, and reprimanded him in the palace, which was nothing more than saying that he had close contacts with Qin Zhi on weekdays, but he was so careless in this matter, and after the reprimand, he didn't give Cao Bin a chance to argue, so he sent him out.
Zhao Liang looked at his posture, and knew in his heart that it would be the prince's turn next.
Sure enough, Zhao Heng leaned back on the dragon chair, made a sad look, and said to the ministers: "I raised the prince single-handedly and hoped that he would become a great weapon, but now his subordinates are so confused that they don't even pay attention to the court Enke, which really makes me sad." So last night I issued an edict, let him think about it behind closed doors in the prince's mansion, I have instructed the province of Zhongshu, and after the dynasty, I issued an edict to the world to apologize for the prince's sins. ”
Rong Yu and the others were stunned in their hearts, what did Zhao Heng want to do? People of the world? Does everyone in the world know that Qin Zhi is Cao Bin's person? Not necessarily. But as soon as Zhao Heng's edict was issued, everyone knew that the prefect who was pulled up by the prince's maternal uncle bought and released the imperial court's Enke exam questions, what would the people in the world think of the prince? The prince's reputation was completely ruined.
Rong Yu looked at Zhao Liang, and when he saw that he nodded slightly, he raised his feet and stood up, saluted and then spoke: "The minister returned to the court today, and he came here for the prince's matter. ”
Zhao Heng sneered almost invisibly, a trace of disdain and hatred flashed in his eyes, and he looked back and forth on Zhao Liang and Rong Yu twice before waving his hand and calling Rong Yu to speak.
Rong Yu was not stunned, straightened his waist and said: "What the students of the world want is nothing more than justice, Your Majesty exiled Wu Guixiang and also cut Qin Zhi, this justice has been given to them." The minister thought that this matter should not drag the prince into the water. ”
"Drag it into the water?" Zhao Hengpi looked at Rong Yu with a smile, and asked rhetorically, "Does Guogong think that the prince should not be punished this time?" As a prince, he can't even control people," he said, snorting, "It's really disappointing to me." ”
Zheng Yong's heart was shocked when he listened to it, how could he think that Zhao Heng's words and words revealed the intention of abolishing the prince, so he couldn't stand anymore and stood next to Rong Yu: "The minister seconded what Rong Guogong said, even if the prince has negligence, but in fact, Qin Zhiyuan is in Yangcheng, and it is impossible for the prince to send people to keep an eye on him every day, he does such a thing in private, although he ruins the prince's face, but in fact, the prince is innocent." ”
Under the protection and request of everyone, Zhao Heng finally agreed not to issue this edict, but soon he came up with a new idea, and after dispersing the dynasty, he asked Wei Jin to hold the holy decree, shouting all the way from the imperial city to the prince's mansion, and reprimanded the prince for "not knowing and not distinguishing, fainting and not knowing".
Rong Yu was out of the Taiji Hall with Zheng Yong, Zhao Liang was in front, he saw Zhao Liang's figure with sharp eyes, and he was still thinking about Rong Jiang's affairs, so he said goodbye to Zheng Yong and others, and chased after him.
Zhao Liang looked at Rong Yu, who was walking side by side with him, and turned sideways slightly: "Grandpa Guo has something?" ”
Rong Yu looked at him once, and said to him very seriously: "The matter of the prince, even if everyone who doesn't make trouble knows about it, it's almost the same. Wei Jin shouted all the way to the Prince's Mansion, I estimate that in a few days, the people of Yecheng will spread the word of mouth, "He is a little paused," His Royal Highness still has to say a favor for Rong Jiang. ”
Zhao Qi squinted, and only said that he knew, so he didn't say more.
Rong Yu saw that he didn't answer, so he followed Tian and said: "I was supposed to let her go with you to the prince to ask for a crime, but last night she started to get hot, and she hadn't woken up before I entered the palace, so I'm afraid I can't go." ”
The hand in Zhao Liang's sleeve immediately clenched into a fist, his face was also cold, and he wrung his eyebrows to look at Rong Yu: "How can it be hot?" ”
"When I found out yesterday, I took a rattan and whipped her a few times, and the doctor said that it hit her in the left shoulder injury, and then she knelt in the ancestral hall and suffered the wind, and she couldn't bear it." He deliberately said it lightly, as if Rong Jiang had just accidentally fallen, got up and dusted off and would be fine.
The two had already left the palace while talking, and Zhao Liang was about to get angry when he heard this, but he suddenly saw the seriousness in Rong Yu's eyes - he had been staring at himself.
Zhao Liang took a deep breath, saw Wei Ming from a distance, he didn't look at Rong Yu again, and dropped a sentence "I'll visit the house in the afternoon, and take a look at Gu Ninghou by the way" and hurriedly walked away, really didn't dare to walk with Rong Yu again.
Rong Yu was behind him, staring at his figure leaving in a hurry, thoughtfully-leaving, a little anxious.
Besides, Zhao Liang got into the car, Wei Ming glanced at Rong Yu, who was not moving in the distance, turned over and drove away.
After walking farther, he rushed into the car and asked, "What's wrong with the master?" When I just left, I saw that Guogong was still there, as if he hadn't moved. ”
There was no answer in the car, Wei Ming was a little sneering, but Zhao Liang opened his mouth: "He is testing me." ”
Outside, Wei Ming let out an "ah", a little unclear, and Zhao Liang's sigh reached his ears: "He told me that he beat Rong Rong, Rong Rong had a fever and fell into a coma last night, and he didn't wake up this morning, he was testing me." ”
Wei Mingxin said badly, it must have been too obvious last night, Rong Guogong, he is like a human spirit, his own master rushed at him yesterday, he must have seen something.
So Wei Ming didn't dare to answer anymore, and he didn't know what to say, and Zhao Liang spoke again after a long time: "I can't let the Rong family know right now, I'm interested in Rong Jiang." He said a little helplessly, and Wei Ming was still a little sad when he heard it, "Rong Yu came to test me, just because I was afraid that I really had a heart for Rong Jiang, and it would affect her in the future, and if I knew about it, I would probably never let me enter the door of Rong Mansion again, and I would never be protected by me again." ”
Wei Ming's eye sockets were a little sour, he felt that his master was the pride of the sky, even if there was an emperor above, but when the master faced the emperor, he did not avoid more than half a point, and now he wanted to hide his feelings for Shangrong Guogong, and he was very sad when he thought about it: "Why is the master bothering?" Don't you like Gu Ninghou, won't His Majesty attack her? He paused for a moment, "I remember when we came back, you said that because she is Rong Zhen's daughter, Her Majesty will always take revenge, what does it have to do with whether you like her or not?" ”
Zhao Liang never thought of avoiding Wei Ming, and he also knew that Wei Ming understood his thoughts when he said 'jealousy', and after listening to Wei Ming's words, he also had a stunned moment: "You don't understand." If I like Rong Jiang and Zhao Heng knows, then her time of death will come, at least for now. ”
Wei Ming opened his mouth outside before throwing out the word "for", and Zhao Liang's words sounded in his ears again: "If the King of England has soldiers, can Zhao Heng still sleep peacefully?" Wei Ming, don't ask any more, in short, now is not the time. ”
