Chapter 66: Go Home and Have a Look
"Exactly." Guan Qianyi nodded in approval again, "Yi Xiaoxian asked His Majesty if he wanted to repair the examination room in the Gong Academy?" β
Exam? It's also called the number house. This name made Li Wei suddenly remember that when she discussed with Lu Xiao that day, she unintentionally revealed her stupid behavior of not understanding the term "number house".
Li Wei nodded, "I plan to do a major renovation of the examination room." It may have to be demolished and rebuilt. I want to improve the state of students during exams, and I don't want them to take exams in a state of extreme physical discomfort and tension, because it will affect the students' performance in on-site exams. β
"There are still more than a month before the scientific expedition time, and if you want to rebuild, I'm afraid it's too late." Guan Qianyi disagreed.
"Then I will discuss with the courtiers tomorrow to see if I can unite the houses in the Gongyuan and several inns outside as a rest place for students after the exam."
The regent directly vetoed this time, "No, the students of the Tribute Academy are likely to have more cheating methods." β
Li Wei made a difficulty, did she just take the exam this time and then repair it? But she felt that she couldn't tolerate that kind of scientific research environment, and she didn't want Lu Xiao to enter the Gongyuan Answer Sheet that had no improvement again. Well, Lu Xiao has already experienced it twice, and maybe he doesn't care about doing it again. However, she worked so hard to persuade Lu Xiao to participate in the scientific expedition, she always had to make some efforts for her own words and deeds, right?
Li Wei paced back and forth, obviously annoyed by this, and finally said, "This matter, wait for me to think about it." Shouldn't I go to the Gongyuan to see for myself before making a decision? That's right. She asked herself questions and answered herself, revealing the matter.
The two of them read all the twists and turns related to the scientific expedition, and postponed other things.
When the regent was leaving, he told her again: Cheng Guogong is a calm person, and he has always taken loyalty to the country as his family motto, but his people's hearts cannot be measured after all, no matter whether the Cheng family participated in this assassination or not, from now on we must be vigilant against the Cheng family. And Cui Yue and Cui Lei recently discovered that Chonghua Palace had obviously broken into the palace, and when they looked closely, they disappeared very strangely.
"For Beichenluo, you also have to be vigilant."
Guan Qianyi's last sentence was obviously much lower, and Li Wei nodded silently after hearing it, thinking about whether she should tell them about the secret passage in Chonghua Palace?
Before falling asleep, Li Wei was still thinking about her hostile relationship with Beichenluo. The two sisters and brothers are opposed because Beichen Luo is the grandson of the Cheng family and the person who is qualified to inherit the throne. So, will the Cheng family rebel because of such a grandson?
The next morning.
Li Wei told her about her assassination in the court, and vaguely pointed out that someone deliberately framed Mrs. Wei, and pretended to be very angry to seek justice for Mrs. Wei, so that Mrs. Wei could testify against the enemy who wanted to take revenge on him.
When Wei Taifu saw that the imperial daughter maintained his reputation in this way, he was naturally moved to tears.
Li Wei is just pretending, she also knows that it is impossible for Wei Taifu to say that his political enemy is Cheng Guogong in front of the ministers, you know, Cheng Guogong is the most upright idol of the whole people, and his protΓ©gΓ©s and martial artists are also all over the capital, especially those young people who are still martial, they are the most protective of the Cheng family, didn't he Wei Taifu argue with the Cheng family back then, and the next day someone actually threw rotten eggs at the door of his house!
Although Wei Taifu is a pedantic scholar, but after so many years of officialdom, he has also learned some roundabout ways, so he touched his tears and said-
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for returning the innocence of my Wei clan. The minister has only now learned that the minister has always been friendly with people and gets along with his ministers without incident, and he can't think of which black-hearted thief wants to trap the old minister and even the entire Wei family in injustice, and I beg your majesty to investigate thoroughly! β
Wei Taifu's words show that he believes that His Majesty can handle it well, or he can consult with His Majesty after the next court, His Majesty is so holy that he may have guessed who is behind the scenes. The fact that he and Cheng Guogong had an enmity once caused a sensation in Kyoto, who doesn't know?
Li Wei naturally guaranteed a thorough investigation at the moment.
Li Wei, who bought people's hearts, gave Mrs. Wei a reassuring look after the court, indicating that she knew everything. Mrs. Wei went back even more gratefully.
At this time, Cheng Guogong stepped out of the palace gate with a calm face.
In the inner city of the palace, he stopped.
Cheng Dandan followed from behind and stood behind him, "Grandpa? β
"You are now wearing two hats, and you follow His Majesty every day, can you still adapt?" Cheng Guogong touched his beard, looked calmly at the eaves under the rising sun in front of him, and did not turn around.
"His Majesty treats people kindly, and his grandson can still adapt to it."
"Your Majesty is indeed benevolent. Grandpa may be old and neglect to understand the things in the palace, and he doesn't know that the relationship between His Majesty and Taifu Wei is so good. He sighed with emotion, looking at the black bird flying high from the palace, "Since your father led the troops to the frontier, you were promoted to the former palace secretary, and the house has been much empty." In the future, you will have to go home more often. β
"Dan'er is very worried about her family, so she will go home and have a look when she is free."
"Hmm."
The grandfather and grandson stood for a moment, and Cheng Guogong took the lead and walked towards the palace gate. Cheng Dandan was behind him, watching him walk out of the palace gate, and then turned around and walked back.
After Cheng Guogong left the palace gate, he still looked calm, and then got into his own carriage.
In the carriage, he quietly looked at the teapot, his fingers rubbing the rim of the cup.
Even in the court, His Majesty did not look at him Cheng Guogong, nor did he see him as the mastermind behind the scenes, but he just knew that His Majesty maintained Wei Taifu in the court in order to give him a dismount. After all, the people who have an enmity with the Wei family, everyone in the world knows that only his Cheng family is the only one.
When he arrived at Cheng's mansion and got off the carriage, Cheng Guogong entered the mansion accompanied by a small servant.
Cheng Guogong went straight to the study, and the little guy hurriedly went to grind the ink and prepare the pen and paper. The old man's face was a little calm when he came back today, and it was better for him to be careful.
Cheng Guogong thought about it for a while, and was just about to write it, only to hear the doorman report that the fruit farmer had picked fruit and wanted to come in. Cheng Guogong asked the doorman to let him go, and then asked the fruit farmer to come over.
The little servant quietly retreated, went out, and sure enough, he saw a man dressed as a fruit farmer with a broken hat carrying a load of fresh fruits and vegetables, so he quickly avoided it, he always did not like to see such inferior people, but his own master seemed to like their vegetables and fruits very much, and every time he came, he could go to the master in person to ask for rewards.
The fruit farmer went into the master's study, and the little servant closed the door for them, and waited not far away.
As soon as the fruit farmer entered the house, he still lowered his head, sat on the chair next to him casually, and asked in a deep voice, "Lord Guogong, did you hear good news in the court today?" β
Cheng Guogong was not angry, and asked calmly, "Then Chen Duozuo was sent by you to find someone?" β
"It's just a little trick, has Mrs. Wei suffered?" The farmer asked pleasantly.
"Hmph, you are indeed a trick, and the emperor saw through it at a glance. Today in the court, he openly ordered to find out the person behind the framing of Wei Taifu. You, a fruit farmer, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it for long. Cheng Guogongli looked at him.
"What?" The fruit farmer didn't seem to believe it, and raised his head slightly, revealing a pair of narrow eyes, "How could the emperor find out so quickly?" After all, Chen Duozuo is a distant relative of Wei Taifu, this distant relative wants to assassinate the emperor's daughter, shouldn't Wei Taifu pay a little price? β
"Li Yuetian, you, just be your lieutenant in An'an, don't make any more trouble." Cheng Guogong issued a warning.
**It's almost the New Year, often go home to see. I allowed officials to buy holidays with tickets. The recommendation is on the list, and I am happy to add more. **
