Chapter 386: Questioning

Before the pearl could speak, the soybean-sized raindrops fell and fell on the ground, splashing the old high.

Cui Keyin looked out the window, but was silent.

Lu Ying couldn't bear it in her heart, and wanted to intercede for Jiang's family, but when the words came to her mouth, she looked at Cui Keyin and swallowed it back. She understands Cui Keyin's temperament, and since she doesn't like Jiang's lack of care for her body, Jiang is still the same, she must not like it.

The Jiang family at the gate of the palace didn't think so. Seeing the wind and torrential rain pouring into the carriage, and the bedding on her body was also wet by the rain, she was so angry that she just wanted to scold, but the words didn't come out, but the tears came down first.

Cuihuan persuaded: "Madam, let's go back." ”

The queen obviously doesn't want to care about this matter, so why suffer here.

Jiang gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't leave, I'll be killed by the rain here." ”

If the Su family is alive, if the Su family is here, will Cui Keyin be so ruthless? In the final analysis, it's just an aunt who deceives her, not a biological mother, no matter how you treat her, she won't be truthful.

The more Jiang thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, his face was wet, and he didn't know if it was rain or tears.

The big Jiang family was still indignant at first, and when she saw Cui Keyin treating everyone equally, she didn't even pay attention to the Jiang family, she felt a lot better, no matter what, she couldn't cross the Jiang family.

Shi kept lifting the curtain to look at the two carriages in the wind and rain, the more he looked, the happier he became, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that his master had hope, and he didn't feel anything when the wind and rain were shining and thundering.

In the overwhelming wind and rain, a group of officials in court clothes walked in. The rain fell too suddenly, and the little guy waiting outside the palace gate didn't have time to go back to the house to get rain gear. As usual, it faces backwards. If the emperor did not summon him, the courtiers could not stay in the Chongzheng Palace. There was a sudden rainstorm today, and Zhou Heng asked the courtiers to wait for the rain to rest before leaving, but Zhou Kang rebelled, and the counterinsurgency affairs were complicated, how could he have time to enjoy the rain and watch the sky here? The courtiers still thanked the emperor for his grace and braved the rain to leave the Chongzheng Palace.

Zhou Heng immediately rewarded the courtiers with silver frost charcoal to dry their official robes, and these silver frost charcoal would soon be sent to the yamen where the courtiers worked.

Cui Zhenyi walked among his colleagues, and his face hurt from the heavy rain, and the rain splashed into his eyes. He had no choice but to squint. Walk slowly outside. When I came to the gate of the palace, I saw three carriages in the wind and rain, and the guards around the carriages had been drenched in rain, one by one.

He felt a shock in his heart. Stop.

"Sir!" A familiar female voice called to him. He wiped the rain from his face. exclaimed: "Cuihuan, why are you here?" What about Madame? ”

Cuihuan saw a group of officials walking out of the gate at noon and hurriedly got out of the car. She was young and had good eyes, although the light was dim, she still recognized Cui Zhenyi from her figure at a glance, and hurried over.

It's okay not to mention Jiang's, but as soon as Jiang's is mentioned, Cuihuan is so distressed that he can't do it, and he said with a crying voice: "Madame is in the car." ”

"What!" Cui Zhenyi was startled at first, then angry, and strode to his carriage.

As soon as Jiang saw Cui Zhenyi, he cried.

Cui Zhenyi turned around and left, he was a cabinet scholar, the uncle of the current queen, the palace gate guards did not dare to stop him, and watched him stride in.

Cui Zhenyi came to Anhua Palace in a fit of anger, went straight inside, stood under the corridor and said: "Minister Cui Zhenyi asks to see the queen's mother." ”

The pearl waiting in the side hall hurriedly came out and said, "Master, why are you here?" Is it scattered? ”

"Yes, the old minister asked to see Niangniang, please let me know." Cui Zhenyi said with a straight face and a businesslike tone.

Pearl was in a panic, and wanted to say something, but she only stood under the porch for a while, her clothes were wet from the rain, and she hurriedly said, "Master, please wait, the slave and maid will go in and report it." ”

Cui Zhenyi heard that Pearl was still the old name, and felt a little better, so he snorted heavily and stood up straight.

Cui Keyin had already heard the answer between the two in the house, and before the pearl had entered, Lu Ying had already greeted her with an umbrella, with a smile on her pretty face, and said, "Master, please come in." ”

Cui Zhenyi glared at her fiercely, and this glance only made Lu Ying tremble.

The little palace people opened the curtain, Cui Zhenyi went straight in, the official robe on his body dripping straight down, walking all the way, leaving wet footprints along the way, he just didn't care.

Seeing Cui Keyin sitting under the candle and holding a book in his hand, Cui Zhenyi's heart was even more angry, and he looked at it according to the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, and said: "The old minister sees the mother." ”

Cui Keyin said: "Excuse me." Then he got up and saluted him: "I've seen the eldest uncle." ”

Cui Zhenyi is so angry that he can't do it, although every time they meet, they give a great gift to the monarch and the minister first, and then perform a family ceremony, but in the past, Cui Keyin was exempted from the great gift of the monarch and the minister early in the morning, and he had to see it, where did he receive his gift like today?

Cui Zhenyi looked coldly at Cui Keyin saluting him, did not avoid it, did not speak, and his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Cui Keyin stood up and said, "Is the eldest uncle here to ask about the sin?" If the eldest uncle really feels sorry for the eldest aunt, he should not let her go to the palace gate. ”

Cui Zhenyi was speechless. Last night, when he learned about what happened at the gate of the palace yesterday, he persuaded Jiang not to go again, and with Cui Keyin's temperament, he had already indicated that he would not care about this matter. But Jiang Shi refused, and said: "My sister and Shi are going, but I am the only one who will not go, how can I make it?" What if they had taken the credit for this great achievement? ”

The one who has a marquis in the Cui family is the deceased Cui Zhenjing, but he is not the husband of a cabinet scholar and a secretary of the ministry. In any case, she had to help her husband fight for a knighthood.

Cui Zhenyi persuaded her again and again, but she just didn't listen. Today, he went to court early in the morning, and Jiang really rushed to the gate of the palace to ask for a meeting despite the bad weather, but he refused to return home even if there was thunder and lightning and heavy rain.

Cui Keyin was indifferent to her and let her freeze in the wind and rain.

Cui Zhenyi rushed to Anhua Palace with a sense of anger, but he was speechless in Cui Keyin's expression.

Cui Keyin sighed lightly and said, "The eldest uncle should persuade the eldest aunt to go back, there is no point in suffering like this." The emperor has his own opinions, and you don't need to fight. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Cui Zhenyi wanted to grasp the meaning of Cui Keyin's words, but he couldn't catch it, so he had to open his eyes and say, "What is the emperor's idea?" ”

Could it be that the candidate for the prison has been decided? Cui Keyin said this, did she mean that the original candidate was him, and the Jiang family didn't need to ask to see her at the palace gate, let alone speak in front of Zhou Heng? Or is it that the candidate has been decided, not him, even if the Jiang family is bathing in the rain at the palace gate, it can't change Zhou Heng's decision?

Cui Keyin said: "The eldest uncle waited patiently for a few days and knew the result. ”

Is this unwilling? The anger in Cui Zhenyi's chest burned again, and he said sharply: "Are you entertaining me?" ”

Wouldn't it be torturous to say it halfway through the sentence and not to say it?

Cui Keyin lowered her head and thought for a while, and said, "It's really not the time to say this at this time." Please forgive me. ”

Turning his head to Lu Ying, who was standing in the corner, he said: "Send someone to send the eldest lady back, and then persuade Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Shi, if they refuse to leave, they can do it." (To be continued.) )
