523, his heart can be punished
Qin Zixu and Nangong Xu each took orders to leave, and Nangong Mo changed the arrangement of the dark guard with Xingwei again. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 The secret guards of the Chu Palace's Mansion were about equal to half of the killer power of the Zixiao Palace back then, and these people, except for the protection of the two children and Princess Changping, were all temporarily sent to the palace to protect the Taichu Emperor and the Empress. Of course, this matter also has to communicate with the palace guards. He also sent Qu Lianxing to see Zi Yan, and tried his best to collect all kinds of news in the Jinling Imperial City and send it to the Chu Wangfu as soon as possible.
After finishing all this, Nangong Mo took a breath before he asked people to prepare a carriage to enter the palace to meet Emperor Taichu.
Although Emperor Taichu didn't have to go to court in the past two days, he was really a little busier than usual. When Nangong Mo arrived in the palace, he was invited by the chamberlain to wait in the side hall of the imperial study, and Emperor Taichu was summoning several important ministers to discuss matters. Even in front of Nangong Mo, there are still two groups of courtiers who want to see Emperor Taichu waiting. It is said that Emperor Taichu got up early in the morning and had breakfast and never rested after that. As for Wei Junmo's brothers, they are also very busy, Xiao Qianchi was sent to prepare for tomorrow's banquet for the Halloween Festival, Xiao Qianwei is busy dealing with the vassal kings, Wei Junmo and Xiao Qianjiong are arguing with envoys from various countries from morning to night, commonly known as negotiations. In fact, this kind of activity has been going on for several days. Originally, His Royal Highness the King of Chu did not like to speak by nature, but he was sent by Emperor Taichu to do this kind of work that must be able to speak lotus. Fortunately, although Wei Junmo couldn't make the tongue of the lotus, but the momentum of his body was enough to make others unable to speak of the lotus, and the negative was positive, and the negotiation record of these days actually made the Taichu Emperor very satisfied.
Nangong Mo was sitting in a daze, and a chamberlain came in carefully and respectfully said, "Princess, the queen mother is invited." ”
Nangong Mo saw that it was the chamberlain beside the queen, so he had to get up and follow the chamberlain to the harem to see the queen first.
The queen's palace is very lively, today is the day of the monthly maiden visit, and it will be the longevity festival again, the women and magnates of Jinling, and the vassal princes and concubines who have entered Beijing from all over the country have poured into the palace one after another. As soon as Nangong Mo entered, he was almost startled when he saw the people sitting in a hall bustlingly. The queen saw Nangong Mo smiling and beckoned, "Flawless, come in." ”
Nangong Mo stepped forward and saluted respectfully, "I've seen the queen mother." ”
The queen smiled: "I know you are busy, but now that all your aunts have arrived, you should still meet you." It's hard to find such a good opportunity in the future. ”
"Thank you to the queen mother, it's the son-in-law who didn't think about it." Nangong Mo smiled and got up in response.
Princess Zhou, who was sitting at the bottom of the queen, covered her lips and smiled: "When I saw Princess Chu this year, I thought I was going to call my aunt, but now I want to call my aunt." The world is changing, and no one can say for sure. The queen glared at her angrily and said, "Your mouth... Flawless, this is your Fifth Emperor Aunt, can you remember? ”
Nangong Mo naturally remembered this beautiful Princess Zhou, and even remembered that the matter of Princess Zhou's only son had something to do with Wei Junmo. Although it was actually Xiao Qianye's hand, who let it frame Wei Junmo? So this pot Wei Junmo has to carry at least half of it.
"I've seen the fifth aunt, and the fifth aunt is still outstanding after not seeing it for a few years, and the younger generations are not as good as what if." Nangong Mo smiled and saluted.
Princess Zhou sneered: "Look at this little mouth, no wonder Your Majesty and the Queen Mother are so fond of it." Nangong Mo pursed his lips and smiled, smiling lightly.
The queen introduced many princesses to Nangong Mo, including the original concubines and step-concubines, these princesses also brought various princesses and princesses around them, etc., even if Nangong Mo boasted of his outstanding memory, he also vaguely felt unbearable. When he finally gave all the princesses a salute and got to know each other one by one, Nangong Mofang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and walked to an empty seat in front of Sun Yan'er and Zhu Chuyu and sat down.
The princesses seemed to be full of curiosity about Nangong Mo's nephew and daughter-in-law, and even after sitting down, Nangong Mo felt that the gaze that fell on her was not less. Princess Zhou looked at Nangong Mo with a smile and said, "Princess Chu is a busy person, we haven't seen much people these days." Even today, if the queen hadn't sent someone to invite her, I'm afraid I wouldn't have seen it. ”
Nangong Mo smiled lightly: "The fifth aunt is serious, I saw the fifth aunt at the banquet of the second aunt a few days ago, but the fifth aunt is busy, and as a junior, I don't dare to disturb it." ”
"I can really speak, if I have this daughter-in-law, I will love it so much." Princess Zhou said with a smile.
Nangong Mo couldn't laugh or cry a little, this sowing discord was too obvious.
Princess Qi, who was sitting next to Princess Zhou, sighed helplessly and said, "Fifth sister-in-law, Princess Chu is a junior, don't scare others." ”
Princess Zhou snorted lightly and whispered, "You are a philanthropist." ”
Princess Qi smiled faintly and didn't care about her, nodded and smiled at Nangong Mo, with a little kindness in her expression. Nangong Mowaner smiled and nodded back with a bit of gratitude.
Nangong Mo is a junior after all, so many princesses and ladies are present, and it is impossible to talk around her all the time. When everyone started talking about other topics, Nangong Mo secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It's really better to have a good fight with those assassins and killers than to have a verbal confrontation with these people.
"Sister-in-law." Sun Yan'er leaned over and chuckled in a low voice.
Nangong Mo smiled at her, "I'm fine, you guys were okay last night." ”
Sun Yan'er shook her head, she actually found out about the assassination after she returned to the mansion last night. I was a little scared, but I really didn't know anything at the time. Zhu Chuyu guessed some, but there were people around to protect her, and she herself was a life-sparing person, so naturally there would be nothing wrong. Zhu Chuyu asked with some curiosity: "I heard that the sister-in-law has entered the palace, and we have waited for a long time and have not seen the sister-in-law come." Did you go to see your father? ”
Nangong Mo nodded slightly, "There are some important things to tell my father, but the imperial study is very busy, so I waited for a while." Thinking that the queen mother is only afraid that she will be very busy here these days, she doesn't dare to disturb. ”
Sun Yan'er nodded, "The queen mother is really busy these days." "Every day, I have to summon these noble ladies and princesses, as well as the envoys of various countries, and the queen is really busy. The whole person looks two points thinner, but the spirit is very good, so I can't see it. Nangong Mo is studying medicine, but he can see the exhaustion hidden between the queen's eyebrows. Just when I was thinking about going back or sending some medicinal materials that can warm and nourish the body to the queen, the waiter waiting in the imperial study in front of me came to ask for a meeting, saying that His Majesty had summoned Princess Chu to meet her. There was a moment of silence in the hall, and the queen smiled: "Since Your Majesty has summoned you, Flawless should go quickly." Don't get me wrong. ”
Nangong Mo followed and got up, slightly blessed, "Erchen will retire first." ”
"Let's go." The queen nodded.
Out of the queen's palace, Nangong Mo couldn't help but glance back and silently wiped a handful of sweat. There are dozens or hundreds of people in the palace, even if every voice is well controlled, but the buzzing sound is enough to deal with those princesses and wives at any time, and the position of the queen is not easy to do.
When Nangong Mo stepped into the imperial study, Emperor Taichu was losing his temper, Nangong Mo was neither surprised nor afraid, Emperor Taichu was indeed not a good-tempered person, she was used to it. Being able to lose his temper proves that he is not very angry, and when Emperor Taichu is really angry, he will be very calm. It's like a sea brewing in the turbulent ground, and the seemingly calm internal force contains infinite danger and killing intent.
"Father."
Emperor Taichu snorted lightly and waved his hand to signal her to sit down and speak, while asking, "What clues are there about the assassins?" ”
Nangong Mo shook his head and explained something briefly. Emperor Taichu was speechless, "What did you do without you deliberately entering the palace?" Nangong Mo took out a drawing and handed it to the waiter beside him, and the waiter took it with both hands and didn't dare to look at it, and immediately served it to Emperor Taichu. Emperor Taichu glanced at Nangong Mo suspiciously, and then he took it and opened it with a slight expression, "This is what you think?" ”
Nangong Mo nodded and said, "Yes." ”
Emperor Taichu nodded, and pondered, "It's a little more thoughtful than they thought, it's good." In this case, I should let them learn from you. A bunch of waste can't do anything! Nangong Mo sighed, lowered his eyes and said: "Father's words are serious, and different angles of looking at problems have their own merits. The internal guards in the palace are naturally top-notch, and I'm just making up for one or two, my father thinks it's usable, and if it's not available, just take a look. ”
Emperor Taichu rolled up the drawings and put them into the box on the side, and said, "Jun'er told me before that the secret guards of the Chu Palace's palace would be transferred to the palace, but I can tell you." ”
Nangong Mo nodded slightly, slightly hesitating, "This... Is there something wrong? "This is also where Nangong Mo is worried, the palace must be where the Son of Heaven lives, a forbidden place, and secret guards are sent from the palace to protect the emperor. But at present, the Ouchi guards around Emperor Taichu are indeed still a little untouchable, after all, they have just been promoted from the vassal king's guards. There is still a big gap between marching and fighting, charging into battle, and defending and guarding. Originally, there were naturally a lot of internal guards, but Emperor Taichu would not use them so reassuringly.
How could Emperor Taichu not know what Nangong Mo was thinking, and said indifferently: "What's wrong?" If I can't even trust my own son, who else can I trust? ”
In this regard, Nangong Mo is noncommittal, are there few things that the royal father and son are opposed?
Emperor Taichu waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's do it." It's only been a few days. When Jun'er is free, let him temper these individuals in the palace again. ”
"Father, you promised to give him a holiday." Nangong Mo reminded him not to forget the reward he gave himself.
Emperor Taichu was not angry, "One or two are not productive, I think about being lazy when I am young, and I haven't been able to rest when I am old." Alright, alright, I remember, you have to take your time. What else? Nangong Mo shook his head, entering the palace was originally for tomorrow's guards to arrange things, after saying this, everything else is a trivial matter, "Since my father has no opinion, I will let them enter the palace in a while and obey the command of the guards." ”
The emperor nodded in response, and Nangong Mo wanted to leave, she was also very busy.
Emperor Taichu still had something to say, "You and Xie Qi went to the Champion Tower last night?" ”
Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows suspiciously, didn't you know about it yesterday? I also saw Xie Qi with me.
Emperor Taichu snorted lightly, and a book of folds fell lightly on the table in front of Nangong Mo, and said, "Take a look." Nangong Mo picked it up and opened it, and it was an impeachment letter. The targets of impeachment were Lin Changfeng and Xie Qilang, and Nangong Mo was spared because she was a woman and borrowed the name Xie Qi's sister and entered the wing room early.
As for the content of the impeachment, it is nothing more than Lin Changfeng's misconduct and desecration of court clothes, Xie Qilang's self-pride in his talent, teasing students who are waiting for the exam, and suppressing talented people with a prominent reputation. Nangong Mo admired that the creature of Yanguan can have the ability to tell an ordinary trivial matter as if heaven and earth do not tolerate heinousness. During this period, the rhetoric was fierce, and it is said that Xie Qilang did his best to humiliate a certain talent in the examination, and hated to destroy other people's interest, subvert other people's outlook on life, and blow a promising talent into a slump from then on, intending to destroy the future pillars of talent. Its intentions are vicious, and its heart can be punished!
...... "Why do I always feel like I'm not seeing the same thing as them?"
"What's your opinion?" Emperor Taichu asked.
Nangong Mo touched his nose and said, "This... The psychological endurance of the talented man is inevitably too weak. During the palace test, will you faint before entering the main hall? ”
Hearing this, Emperor Taichu's originally angry face couldn't help but smile a little strangely, "Oh? How do you see it? ”
Nangong Mo said: "Although Erchen was not present, Xie Qi and that genius could hear every word clearly. If the impeached adults need it, they can confront the genius on the spot. If there is a difference of half a word, it is all the fault of the son. Of course, if the talented man who was humiliated by Xie Qi mentioned in this excerpt is not the one I know, then I can only ask my father to send someone else to investigate. As for Lin Changfeng, his father had his own judgment, and his sons did not dare to interfere in the affairs of the court. ”
Emperor Taichu said angrily: "That's it, these scholars like to be idle and have nothing to do." What kind of Lingzhou genius is that? Emperor Taichu showed a trace of disgust on his face, and snorted lightly: "It seems that if he is really talented, he can make so many people praise him as a pillar of the country, and I also want to see what kind of talent he is." I heard that this person is married to the Zhao family? ”
You know what else you ask me for?
Nangong Mo nodded slightly, "It seems that there is such a thing." ”
Emperor Taichu frowned, "It's a clever one." That's it, let's talk about this matter in the next two days, I heard that Xie Hou plays chess? I have a pair of black and white exquisite jade chess sets here, you can have someone send them to the Xie family. ”
Is this what it means to support the Xie family?
Nangong Mo got up and said slightly: "The son obeys the order, if there is nothing to do, this will be retired." ”
"Go ahead." Emperor Taichu nodded.
Nangong Mo was blessed again, turned around and exited the imperial study.
