Chapter 145: Will
Two days later, when I woke up one morning, I heard a woman's cry outside the palace. I don't usually care about the affairs of the palace, but this time I have a vague feeling as if it has something to do with me. So I summoned Duhuli over and asked. Since she saved me last time, she has now been promoted to the head of the palace maid by Wan Yan Yue, and I also like her honesty, and with the progress of my Hu Zhen and her Chinese, we communicate more and more, and I also like this little girl who doesn't like to talk, but is very sensible.
But this time, Duhuli was not as honest as usual, and after asking for a long time, she also said that she didn't know, and asked me to leave it alone. I was shocked, stood up and said, "But what happened to Wanyan Yue?"
Duhuli shook her head and said, "No, the lord of the country is fine, nothing happened." “
I sat down and asked, "So what's the matter, why are so many women crying?"
Duhuli still looked like she was not open-minded, I pouted my lips indifferently, and said, "If you don't say it, I can naturally ask others, and someone will always tell me." “
Duhuli gritted her teeth when she heard this, and said, "Miss doesn't need to provoke me, anyway, I won't tell Miss about this, and Miss can't do anything if she knows, but she will embarrass herself." Besides, don't tell the young lady that this is the order of the lord of the country, and the slave maid has ten thousand guts, and she never dares to say it. I don't think I'll tell Miss except for the lord of the country. ”
I saw that she was soft and hard and didn't eat, so I had to clean up and go out of the temple to have a look. Now I am familiar with the road in this palace, and I have come all the way, but I have never seen so many palace maids on weekdays. It seems that all the palace maids are now guarding their master's palace, and those cries are coming from those palaces. After speaking, Yan Yue's harem is not very crowded, and there are about a dozen masters of all sizes. It can't compare to the three thousand beauties in the harem of the Central Plains Emperor. And I heard that in fact, except for a few main wives and concubines, the others don't seem to be very lucky. And he hasn't come out yet, and the average girl says that he thinks the lord doesn't like men and women. The palace maids I occasionally met also saw me just saluting, and they shook their heads when they asked anything, and I didn't know whether it was Wan Yanyue's order that he couldn't tell me, or whether my nonsense was still not good at learning, and they didn't hear what I asked clearly. In a word. As Duhuli said, I didn't get anything along the way.
Before I knew it, I walked to the place where Wanyan Yue went to the court-"Qinzheng Palace", the name of which I gave it. That time, I talked to Wan Yanyue about the name of the place where the emperor went to court. I casually asked if it was called "Qinzheng Palace", and he thought the name was very good, so he changed it to "Qinzheng Palace". But today this place is a crowd of kneeling people. Wan Yan Yue also stood on the highest staircase outside the hall, standing with his hands in his hands. The expression is serious. Noncommittal.
And the kneeling people have no one to speak, and the scene is like ...... It's like the earliest silent films: a lot of people, but no sound. This silent scene is more suffocating than loud arguments. I don't know what decision Wan Yan Yue made to make almost all the ministers kneel here to let him take back his life, and Ah Zhe, who has always supported him, is actually among them.
I was anxious to know what was going on, but no one spoke. No minister raised objections, and Wan Yanyue did not explain his reasons. In short, the more anxious I wanted to know what was going on, the less anyone came to explain. I hid in the shadows. Waiting for someone to argue word for word.
Finally, just when I waited until my legs ached. Wan Yanyue finally spoke.
"Come back, everyone, this matter will not change its original intention. Besides, it's all a lonely family matter, and you shouldn't point fingers like that. "This is the first time I've seen Wan Yan Yue facing a courtier, he is completely different from usual, very dignified, and speaks in a very tough tone.
I suddenly thought that it was because he wanted to make me a concubine, and the result was ...... It shouldn't be, although I am a Han, but it will not attract opposition from the government and the opposition, not to mention that Ah Zhe should not object, right? I guessed that he was a little panicked because of the word "family matter". To tell you the truth, I am afraid that he will be so opposed to his courtiers, and I am even more afraid that the reason why he is so antagonistic is because of me.
"Your Majesty, can you listen to the minister?" It turned out to be Ah Zhe who spoke.
"Oh, Little General Huyan, you really impressed Gu today. Do you have something to say? Permit! Wan Yanyue didn't call Ah Zhe by his name, but called him "Little General Huyan", which already expressed his deepest dissatisfaction.
Sure enough, Ah Zhe's face changed, but he still swallowed his saliva and said: "Your Majesty issued this will early this morning, of course, as Your Majesty said, this is Your Majesty's family matter, but Wei Chen just wants His Majesty to grant this will to take effect tomorrow, and I want Your Majesty to think twice about it." If Your Majesty still does not change your original intention tomorrow morning, then I Hu Yanzhe will definitely no longer stop Your Majesty. Ah Zhe said this to the courtiers, and also to Wan Yanyue a step down. It can be seen from these words that Wan Yanyue already has a very high prestige in Hu Zhen, and even if the minister opposes it, he does not dare to argue with him loudly, even if he is a Huyan family with heavy troops, he is very concerned about his small title and a little dissatisfaction.
I think that Yan Yue should not refuse this suggestion, and Ah Zhe is obviously also a delaying tactic, he should have a lot of reasons that are inconvenient to say in front of all the ministers. Then he will definitely make good use of the time from now until tomorrow morning to persuade Yan Yue well.
Wan Yan Yue's promise was expected by me, and after he agreed, he announced his retirement and walked away. He left before the courtiers, and when he walked to the tree where I was hiding, he smiled and said, "How long are you going to hide here?" The voice was as gentle as the two of them.
I was embarrassed to come out from behind the tree and said, "You see me?"
He nodded thoughtfully, stretched out his hand, and said, "You know what? It's cold in high places, but many people want to stay in high places, and one of the reasons is that they can see better from high places. “
I hesitated for a moment, and finally handed my hand over, and he grasped it as if he cherished it for a long time. I was a little unaccustomed to it, but I didn't want to withdraw my hand so I had to let him go. His hands are also used to holding weapons, and like Jiang Yunxiu, he also has calluses at the base of his fingers. But his hand is bigger than Jiang Yunxiu's hand, and he can wrap all my hands in his palm.
It took a long time for him to stop and pull me forward. I wanted to ask, but seeing that he kept looking ahead, as if he didn't want to talk to me about it, I wasn't sure if I should say anything. Since he has ordered all the palace maids and palace slaves not to tell me, I think he really doesn't want me to know.
"Want to know the content of my will?" Wan Yan looked at me and stopped talking for a long time before he spoke.
I nodded again and again, and said, "Yes, I want to know what your will is, to make the women in this palace cry and cry, and let the courtiers of a country kneel there and make you think twice." ”
He stopped suddenly, turned to look at me, and smiled, "If I told you that the content of this will does not concern you, would you still want to know?" (To be continued......)
