Chapter 256: The Imperial Front

The brother thought that his identity was exposed, and he didn't dare to make any moves. Even if he knew about Li Zhan, he couldn't send the news for a while. Early this morning, there was news from above, saying that the mole had been cleared. That's when the door opened. Does the young grandmother suspect that there is something else hidden in this matter? ”

Seeing Xie Ke frowning and contemplating, Lin Changyuan suddenly became distracted, and finally asked.

Xie Ke nodded.

"Things won't be so coincidental, it just so happened that on the day the second master left Beijing, Gyeonggi Wei also caught a traitor. Since Li Zhan was captured three or five days ago, why is there no news from the emperor?

Did His Majesty deliberately withhold it, or did the other party not report it at all?

Or did he deliberately choose the second master to make trouble when he left Beijing? And since Li Zhan came to 'send' the silver to the master, how could he be captured by the Gyeonggi guards outside the capital. Is someone tipping the news? Or is this a game?

Or is it someone who is ventilating? Who is going to plot against the second master. With Li Zhan's courage, he may really come to give the lord silver. As for buying and selling officials, it should be that he is blowing up his cowhide, and in the end it is difficult to ride a tiger.

So he could only take a risk and come to the capital to ask for the second master.

What if this is a game? So who is behind it? ”

Xie Ke's question made Lin Changyuan frown. "Your Majesty should not know, if you know, with Your Majesty's temperament, you must ask clearly no matter what. The other party should have deliberately chosen a day like today. The second master has just left Beijing, and he is anxious to make trouble for convenience, thinking that he has been planning for a long time. ”

"Daya's matter, Li Zhan's matter, no matter who the other party is. have been paying attention to the Qi clan for a long time. Xie Ke said softly. Then he thought about it and spoke again. "The reason why the other party chose to make trouble at this time must be to make us mess up. The second master is not here, if we mess up again, we will really fall into the trap of the other party.

Don't be in a hurry, let's go and find out what happened?

As for Li Zhan's matter, let me think about it before deciding. Lin Changyuan nodded and quickly took the order. Xie Ke returned to the inner house and directly asked the girl to invite Wang's mother.

Tell all about Li Zhan's family.

Xie Ke didn't think that Mother Wang was just an inner house woman. She has been following the eldest princess of Yuyang for so long, so she is naturally not an idle person, and sure enough, Xie Ke's voice fell. Mother Wang couldn't help but smile and nodded. "The young grandmother is a decisive person. He told the slave and maid about it.

Since the young grandmother believes in the slave maid, the slave and the maid will naturally think for the young grandmother.

Thinking that the other party chose to do it at this time, it was to bully the young grandmother and the mother and daughter of the little county lord. I think this game is for the second master......

Young grandmother, don't worry, listen to the slave maid carefully.

The slave knew that the second master had left Beijing. But the young grandmother needs to know. The second master's errand is a life...... But because of this life. The other party can't rest assured, so there is this game. Your Majesty will know about this by tonight at the latest. Your Majesty can't see the idea of officialdom the most, and he hates buying and selling officials.

It is the doubt in the heart, but the matter of Daya can be added. He will be furious. I wanted to confront the second master. But the second master has already left Beijing. His Majesty may think that when the second master left Beijing, he also calculated in advance, in order to escape.

Even seriously, His Majesty will suspect that the second master has a rebellion.

After all, this errand is really difficult for His Majesty to know in his heart...... The second master set up such a situation because of his grudge, and it may not be impossible in His Majesty's opinion.

The slave knew that what the slave said was a bit far-fetched. But the young grandmother should not forget that it is the emperor, the emperor who has always been high and does not allow anyone to question the blasphemy...... Li Zhan's words may only be believed by the emperor by three points, but with the addition of 'Daya trouble', His Majesty may believe by five points.

Five points is enough to shoot at the little county lord who is a young grandmother.

Therefore, the young grandmother should rush to the palace before the other party enters the palace, and enter the palace first to ask for guilt. ”

Please?

"Mom, please continue, Ake listens." Xie Ke had also thought about this method, but how to explain to His Majesty that she had learned about Gyeonggiwei's movements in advance. If this is studied carefully, Qi Lu inserted eyeliner into Gyeonggi Wei, which also touched the emperor's bottom line. "Naturally, the young grandmother can't mention the matter of Gyeonggi Wei. I just said that I suddenly received a message from Hele this morning.

The news made it clear about Li Zhan.

The young grandmother was frightened, so she hurriedly entered the palace to plead guilty. As for how the news spread from Hele to the capital, and then to the ears of the young grandmother? Xie Ke's eyes lit up: "I only said that Hele has the second master's courtyard, and I will go to the north, pass through Hele, and even tell me about the loss of food." ”

"Young grandma is really smart." Wang's mother praised.

"Thank you Mother Wang for mentioning it, and ask my mother to think of a way for me, I have to meet the saint before the head of Gyeonggi Wei sees His Majesty."

"It's easy, the slave maid has the token of the eldest princess of Yuyang here, as long as the young grandmother holds this token, she will naturally be able to enter the palace and face the saint...... It's just that when the time comes, the slave doesn't dare to guess. The slave will also send a message to the princess immediately. When necessary, let the princess come forward, and the young grandmother will definitely be saved. ”

Xie Ke took the token, and then solemnly put it into his sleeve pocket.

One last glance at his daughter, who was sleeping soundly on the couch, then turned around and walked away.

Mother Wang looked at Xie Ke's back with a bit of appreciation in her eyes...... She grew up in the palace since she was a child, and later married Princess Yuyang. Princess Yuyang is newly married and widowed, which is not acceptable to any woman. Yuyang is a princess, so it is not difficult to remarry.

But the princess didn't.

A twenty-eight-year-old woman guarded her posthumous son, and twenty years passed in a blink of an eye.

In the eyes of Wang's mother, her princess is a decisive person. And in Xie Ke, she seems to see a little bit of the same decisiveness as her own princess.

After losing her mind for a moment, Wang's mother quickly went out.

At this hour, the emperor should be taking a nap, she once heard Qi Lu mention it, saying that after the emperor rested, he used to go to the garden for a walk. After that, the courtiers will be received...... Presumably, the people behind the scenes have made arrangements, and at this time, the leader of the Gyeonggi Guard is probably already waiting outside the palace. So Xie Ke directly showed the princess token, and then directly ordered the chamberlain to lead him straight to the queen's bedroom.

She is the wife of a foreign minister, and she is not allowed to summon her, so naturally she cannot go directly to see the emperor.

But the queen can.

Time was pressing, Xie Ke saw Queen Song and fell to his knees with a thud. Empress Song was taken aback and hurriedly asked Xie Ke what had happened...... Xie Ke choked up and explained Li Zhan's matter, and finally vaguely mentioned that before Qi Lu left Beijing, he once talked about playing with the prince when he was a child.

Empress Song seemed to be very concerned, but when Xie Ke talked about Qi Lu, she listened very carefully.

Xie Ke clenched his fist and slammed his head on the ground.

Empress Song seemed to be a little embarrassed, and finally sighed heavily. bluntly said that he liked Qi Lu since he was a child, and thought that Qi Lu could become half of her son, but he didn't want to make people ...... These words were obviously squeezing Xie Ke, but at this moment, the queen was her lifeline, and she could only listen quietly.

She came to beg the queen, even if the queen was actually looking forward to her begging.

But after all, she has to ask for others. It's nothing to be caught by the queen with a gun and a stick...... In the end, Empress Song would definitely take her to see the emperor.

She was gambling, and Queen Song was also gambling.

If Empress Song helps her this time, I don't believe that Qi Lu will really assist the prince sincerely. And Empress Song didn't need to take any risks, she just needed to lead Xie Ke to see the emperor.

This is a good deal, how could Queen Song let it go.

Sure enough, Queen Song said a few words, and then said, 'Drive the Imperial Garden'...... Xie Ke's clenched fist slowly loosened. Empress Song agreed to help, and the matter was already half done. When Xie Ke and Empress Song arrived at the garden, it happened that the emperor was about to return to the main hall. Seeing Xie Ke here, Emperor Renhe was naturally very surprised.

"The concubines don't dare to disturb Your Majesty's tranquility if they have nothing to do. It's ...... The Xie family had something important to say to His Majesty, and the concubine saw that she was anxious and moved with compassion, so she helped her. If Your Majesty has nothing to order, the concubine will retire first......" Emperor Renhe waved his hand, Empress Song smiled gracefully, and then took the palace maid and turned away.

"Xie Shi, if there is anything urgent, just say it's okay."

This was the first time Xie Ke faced the emperor alone. Although Xie Ke is not afraid of this emperor, such a thing as imperial power instinctively makes people a little timid...... Plus the gaze of Emperor Renhe looking at her. It seems to be scrutinized, and with a little dislike.

There is naturally a reason why the emperor doesn't like her, and the emperor originally regarded Qi Lu as half a son who was being raised.

She suddenly appeared, not to mention ruining the emperor's plan, and Qi Lu almost broke with Emperor Renhe. In short, I am definitely not popular......

The emperor walked towards the garden pavilion, followed closely by the attendants behind him, Xie Ke saw this, and also stepped forward gently, and finally knelt outside the pavilion and bowed. "Your Majesty, the reason why the minister's wife asks to see him at this time is really an important matter...... and then he suddenly received a message from Hele, which said that someone in Hele was doing the thing of buying and selling officials in the name of Qi Lu. and will take revenge on Li Zhanen one by one. When the emperor heard this, he was silent for a long time. Finally asked in a deep voice. "A message from Hora? Why did someone send a message to Qi Fu...... Who sent the message? ”

Xie Ke's heart sank, knowing that it was time to live and die.

If you are about to say something, it will inevitably make the emperor angry.

But instead of being beaten passively, it is better to take the initiative to admit the mistake. There is a silver lining to the better.

“…… Qi Lu has a separate courtyard in Heleben, and the last time his wife went to the north with Qi Lu, she lived in that courtyard......"

Xie Ke's subsequent words were a little stumbling, as if he was recalling, and he didn't seem to know how to speak. In short, in the emperor's opinion, Xie Ke was very embarrassed, but he had to say it. This made the emperor feel angry in his heart, and at the same time a little hearty. Thinking that because of himself, Qi Lu was unwilling to tell him, but after all, he still spit it out through his wife's mouth.

Especially after listening to Xie Ke's talk about throwing away grain and looking for food, Emperor Renhe suddenly swept the steaming tea cup on his body to the ground with a 'snap'. [Mo Da, the second update, thank you for having a monthly pass.] (To be continued.) )
