Zhou Heng was blocked by Wang Zhe on the road and went directly to the palace.

"Little four, quickly persuade your uncle of the Yue family." When Emperor An saw Zhou Heng as if he was a savior, he didn't care about putting on his shoes, jumped off the kang, and pulled Zhou Heng's sleeve.

Zhou Heng looked dazed: "What happened?" ”

Emperor Zhi'an concisely said the matter, and urged Zhou Heng to say: "Go and persuade Cui Qing, it's really not a problem to make trouble like this." ”

Zhou Heng was embarrassed: "The imperial brother also knows that scholars are all tendons, where can I persuade them to turn?" Besides, the courtiers are from the royal family, not scholars, and they don't know how to listen. ”

Wang Zhe helped Emperor Zhi'an speak: "The prince is right, it's just that October in the capital is cold, and it's okay for the sun to hang in the sky during the day, and when the sun goes down, the night wind rises again, and it's cold and freezing." Adults are not young, and if they freeze, wouldn't it be a sin? ”

Those who have passed the two rankings of Jinshi in the examination and can face the king of the court must be forty or fifty years old at the youngest.

"If these old ministers are really frozen, how can my conscience get by?" Emperor Andi is sad and authentic.

Zhou Heng said to himself: "This is also true, the imperial brother has always been kind-hearted. ”

He seemed to have made a lot of determination: "The younger brother tried his best to persuade him, if it didn't work, it wouldn't be too late for the imperial brother to think of other ways." ”

"Go, go, go!" To Emperor An urged repeatedly.

There were two or three hundred civil officials sitting in Zuo Shunmen, which was really mighty.

The civil servants sent felt mats and clothes to eat, and sat in groups of three or five, or talked about newly made poems, or talked about some wind and snow, where it seemed to be sinned, it was completely the rhythm of receiving wages and not working.

saw Zhou Heng and Wang Zhe coming one after the other. The civil officials said: "The lower officials are quiet/sitting, and they can't salute, so please don't blame the prince." ”

Zhou Heng found Cui Zhenyi, took the felt mat handed by the chamberlain, sat down opposite him, and said, "Lord Cui, there is no accident in your house, the imperial brother has reprimanded the Marquis of Dingxing, why are you entangled?" ”

Cui Zhenyi naturally knew Zhou Heng's intentions, in order to cooperate with the acting. I wiped the tears that didn't exist in the corners of my eyes with my sleeve. Whimpered: "Where did the prince speak, where is it okay in my house?" Obviously a loyal servant died, that loyal servant, but he grew up watching Neiko grow up since he was a child. If you let the murderous escape go unpunished. Who knows if I will be able to see the prince again tomorrow? Can the niece survive to get on the sedan chair. When you marry into the prince's mansion? ”

You have to help the emperor speak. Maybe my wife will be gone.

The civil officials kept nodding their heads and said, "That's exactly the truth." ”

Otherwise, why would everyone be so united and even put aside political opinions. Together, we can do it as one. Isn't it just a threat to life?

Zhou Heng looked very embarrassed, looked up and asked Wang Zhe: "What did Manager Wang say?" ”

When you mention your wife, you become a soft egg. Wang Zhe sneered and said, "This ......"

He didn't want to care about it in the first place, not to mention that now that Zhou Heng has taken over, he doesn't want to do much.

Zhou Heng didn't get a hint from Wang Zhe, scratched his head, and said, "It's not a matter if it goes on like this." How can Master Cui give up? It's better to say it, wait for the king to convey it to heaven, and let the emperor consider it. ”

This is the purpose of Zhou Heng's appearance. There has to be a middleman in the negotiations.

Many civil officials looked a little pale, and they all felt that Zhou Heng had finally said something human.

Zhou Heng got up and stood ten zhang away, and the civil officials discussed on the spot. There were few disputes, and finally under the mediation of Guo Shouning, the secretary of the ministry, an agreement was finally reached.

Guo Shouning and Cui Zhenyi walked towards Zhou Heng one after the other, and Guo Shouning took the lead and said: "Lord Wang, the evidence of Dingxinghou's poisoning is conclusive, and there is no way to refute it. This wind must not last long, otherwise, the lives of the lower officials and others cannot be guaranteed. Please convey to the emperor that as long as the Marquis of Dingxing is beheaded, the lower officials and others will naturally disperse. ”

Emperor Zhi'an was taken aback and said, "How can that be?" The title of Marquis of Dingxing was still rewarded by Emperor Taizu, how could it be lost in my hands? ”

How not? It's just a marquis. In all dynasties, most of them were cut by Ming Jun. Zhou Heng said in his heart.

Emperor Zhi'an thought for a long time, couldn't make up his mind, and said, "What do you say?" ”

Where was Zhou Heng willing to say more, he only said: "Brother Huang, why don't you ask the queen mother's meaning?" ”

When Emperor An heard that it made sense, he pulled his legs and went to Kunning Palace.

Li Xiuxiu knelt in the corridor of the main hall of Kunning Palace for most of the day, and had already greeted Cui Keyin's ancestors for the eighteenth generation in her heart, and when she greeted again, she suddenly saw a bright yellow figure passing by like a gust of wind, and couldn't help but widen her eyes.

Why did the emperor make such a gaffe?

"Queen Mother, you see ......" Emperor Zhi'an said the request of the civil officials and sincerely asked the Empress Dowager for her opinion.

The Queen Mother asked rhetorically: "What does the emperor mean?" ”

Emperor An was dumbfounded, he wanted to know what to do, did he need to be in such a hurry?

The Queen Mother sighed heavily and said, "How did your father teach you when he was here?" Why did you panic when you encountered such a small thing? If this matter was instructed by Dingxing Hou, of course, it couldn't just be a few reprimands, but Cui Shuping had to give an explanation. Otherwise, how can people be willing to give up? ”

The son has been soft-hearted since he was a child, otherwise, how could he be threatened by the courtiers?

Emperor Zhi'an couldn't bear it, and said, "So it's ......."

The Queen Mother was impatient and said, "Then it's good to cut the knight." If you can't afford to let go of such a little thing, what big thing can it be! ”

"Yes." Emperor An was blushed by the old lady's training, quit, and was hugged by Li Xiuxiu when he walked under the corridor: "The emperor saves his life, the concubine's father is wronged." ”

Looking at Li Xiuxiu, who was crying with pear blossoms and rain, Emperor An's mind came to Lin/Fortunately the night she was happy, she looked reluctant. He was a dignified man and never touched her since.

Li Xiuxiu looked up, with tears on her face, and cried: "It is clear that the Cui family framed and begged the emperor to be the master of the concubine." ”

A woman who couldn't look down on herself fell at her feet and begged for help, which made Emperor Zhi'an's self-esteem as a man swell sharply, and male hormones surged in her body.

"I have my own ideas, you don't have to worry." Emperor Zhi'an comforted Li Xiuxiu: "Where the Queen Mother is, you go and make it clear." ”

Li Xiuxiu was overjoyed, became more docile, and rubbed her chest against Emperor An's thigh.

Emperor Zhi'an's heart fluttered, his brain was a little dizzy, and the words he said to Zhou Heng became: "The Marquis of Dingxing has been demoted to Dingxingbo, in this way, it can be regarded as an explanation to Cui Qing." ”

Zhou Heng has been waiting in the Qinzheng Palace, where do he know the cat, although he feels that the disposal is too light, he still went to Zuo Shunmen and passed on the message.

The civil officials were divided into two factions at once, one faction thought that the punishment was too light, and even if it was not beheaded, it should be cut down and pushed to the end; One faction thinks that the emperor has made concessions, so forget it and accept it when it is good.

The two factions quarreled and threw Zhou Heng as the "middleman" aside.

Zhou Heng glanced at Cui Zhenyi, Cui Zhenyi understood, and nodded. (To be continued......)
