Chapter 336
As soon as the Wing King came back, he once again did something that made the Manchu Dynasty civil and military star, and the fifteen candidates in the household department eliminated eleven people, and the crime was even more unthinkable.
This incident involves the eldest prince, Mu Zhao can no longer stay out of the matter, the secret curses are all sour Confucians who read books and read bad brains, can you use your brain before doing things, what are you doing so quickly, you can't wait until the end of the palace examination to select an official position on the gold list, but at this juncture, the Wing King caught a shape, and dragged himself into the water, these brainless people are really angry and hateful.
The courtiers were speechless, and there were no words to refute the felony set by the Wing King, and it was a great gift for the Wing King to allow the eleven people who dug a pit to bury themselves to participate in the palace examination, and at least he had no regrets in his life after passing the three imperial examinations, and he did not kill him for the crime of betraying the lord, and the crime must be carried out according to the law, enough to behead the public to set an example.
On the surface, the Wing King's move is to open the net and be regarded as benevolent, but in fact, the four words of never hiring have blocked the passage of the Eleventh Bosuo, once everyone knows that these people can drown people with a mouthful of spit in the previous life, and there is no place to stand, who can afford to bear the stigma all their lives, such a life is wasted, and it is even more crazy and cruel than a killer.
Mu Jinming didn't say anything, staring at Mu Zhao kneeling in the hall for a long time, the hall was silent for a while, the courtiers almost held their breath and shrank to minimize their sense of existence, the intention of the eldest prince can be said to be Sima Zhao's heart, everyone knows it, but this layer of window paper has never been pierced, and the emperor can't get the evidence of the crime of killing the eldest prince, and no one can help the two ministers, and the two sides have been deadlocked so far.
What is the emperor's mind now? It is useful to meditate, anger is necessary, and no emperor can tolerate anyone who wants to see his throne, even if he is a sibling or bloodline. The eldest prince was miserable by the sour Confucianism this time. Although there was a little bit of eyeliner to control the household, the eleven people were too eager for quick success, and felt that the Wing King was not there, but unexpectedly, the cleverness was mistaken by the cleverness and ate the consequences, which made the atmosphere extremely tense, and the slightest sound was comparable to thunder and lightning shocking.
Mu Jinming wanted to take this opportunity to clean up Mu Zhao, who was in the way, but when he noticed the sight cast by Xi Chao, he restrained the killing intent in his eyes. At this time, it is not the best time to do it, and I know that I am still unwilling.
There is no conclusive evidence to prove that Mu Zhao has anything to do with those eleven people, and Mu Zhao can completely infer that those people committed crimes in his own name. It is very easy to clean yourself, in Mu Zhao's opinion, it is not a big deal, it can be solved in a few words, but it can't cure Mu Zhao's sins, but it will cause him to be vigilant and find it difficult to find an opportunity.
Mu Jinming retracted his cannibalistic gaze. I made up my mind and turned to the temple exam. Speaking of the rotation of military generals and border generals, he didn't mention anything about what happened just now, let alone call Mu Zhao.
The courtiers were not relieved by the emperor's sudden change of topic, but trembled even more and recovered their breath a little, not daring to answer as before.
Mu Zhao knew that half of the ten people he recruited were wine bags and rice bags, and his brains were on others, and he didn't know how many times he had been pitted by himself, but he couldn't get angry because of this, and he had to do it with it, and the current punishment of kneeling without pain was the result of Mu Jinming's compromise. Moreover, the Wing King did not get to the bottom of this matter, otherwise this war of words would have been fought.
Kneel and kneel. Today, he Mu Zhao knelt on top of this hall, he will definitely reverse in the future, and he will witness Mu Jinming bending his knees and bowing, and it is best to kneel and lose his legs.
At this time, Mu Jinming repeatedly blocked himself in order to take revenge on Mu Zhaoyi, and also thought of kneeling Mu Zhao to death on the main hall, and his legs were abolished and he would not be able to win the throne, because there was a rule in the ancestral system that he could not be the emperor if he was fixed or disabled.
However, Mu Jinming can't do this, the momentary pleasure will anger Mu Zhao and even the courtiers who follow him, and the court can't be in chaos before he has his fledglings, and he must always take it step by step and never give others the opportunity to pick up cheap.
The early dynasty dispersed, Mu Zhao was supported by the little eunuch and went to the Qinzheng Palace, his heart was very angry, and he was cheated by someone for no reason, no matter how good his temper was, he couldn't bear this breath.
"You come with me." Mu Jinming's heart was in a panic, Mu Zhao was a cartilage stuck in his heart, hello when he didn't touch it, hello, hello, everyone, but unfortunately he had to eliminate things that shouldn't be stored, even if the blood was dripping.
Xi Chao quietly accompanied Mu Jinming aimlessly for a while, and Mu Jinming stopped at this time to look at the sporadic greenery in the distance.
"There will be a way." Xi Chao can't say words of comfort, that's too barren and hypocritical.
"You're right, there will be a way, the hard thing is that it takes a long time to wait, I'm about to lose my patience, even if Mu Zhaoming didn't do anything on his face, he stayed in the Great Prince's Mansion in peace, but the court was full of officials who supported Mu Zhao, and they jumped out from time to time to stir up, which was really disgusting."
"I've endured it for so many years, and it's not bad right now." Xi Chao didn't think that Mu Zhao's matter would drag on for too long, and in his own judgment, even if Mu Jinming didn't do it, Mu Zhao would be difficult to sit still, and when he lost his original patience, it would be a matter of time before it broke out.
"Xi'er, sometimes I wonder why I have to be born in the emperor's family, it's too difficult." Mu Jinming's words revealed indescribable bitterness and bitterness.
"If you are not born in the emperor's family, it is difficult to be at ease as a common person?" Xi Chao shook his head and said, "The people are pressed by the officials, and they are breathless like a layer of pressure, sometimes even if they make compromises and concessions, it is difficult to get a good end, at least now that the power is in their hands, they are fearless and fearless of threats from others, which is enough." ”
"You're always so perceptive and see things much better than I do." Mu Jinming exhaled the turbid breath that was pressed in his heart and smiled at Xi Chao.
"It's not that you can't figure it out, but you like to drill the horns." Xi Chao can't talk about real enlightenment, they know each other, not for one thing, people who stick to it and fall deeper and deeper.
"It's good to have you." Mu Jinming stepped forward to hug Xi Chao and kiss his forehead, how long has it been since he closed the distance so much, his father had never only kissed Xi Chao and ignored him before, but now he has changed himself, and finally experienced the good taste of his father at that time.
At the corner of the corridor, Mei Chang, who was originally going to deliver sweet soup, saw the scene of the emperor and the king of wings hugging each other intimately and carelessly, and the sharp nails pierced the palms of his hands and were unconscious, and he pursed his lips in a straight line. There was a deep hatred in his eyes.
The harem has heard the news of the return of the Wing King to the palace, and it is very likely that it will be difficult for the emperor to set foot in the harem again, and it is rare for the five only Chang Zai to have the same lament. They can't compare to the Wing King no matter what, let alone want to have children, and even the favor is lost.
Mei Chang was unwilling to be reconciled, and tried every means to figure out how to win the emperor's heart, but fortunately, she had a child by her side, and she had such a slight advantage, so she wanted to attract the emperor's attention. After all, this is the emperor's own flesh and blood, the first prince of Mu Kingdom, and the significance is extraordinary.
After inquiring for a long time. After learning that King Yi was often called into the imperial study by the emperor after going to court, he decided to try his luck today, and offered the sweet soup to the emperor to taste, to show his sincerity to the emperor. Second, let the emperor pay attention to his prince. The three Duopeng are pregnant, and they have to do so in order to win more attention from the emperor.
Who would have expected to see a heartbreaking scene in the middle of the way, the emperor's eyes were so gentle and natural, Mei often remembered the night when the emperor came to his room, the cold eyes without any emotion, couldn't help but shudder, and the eyes in front of him were really apart, how could a woman not be angry, why not be jealous! She went crazy with jealousy. But he didn't know what to do with the Wing King, and his identity was added to his father's official position. As long as the Winged King moves his little finger and says a word, the rich family will face a catastrophe, and what will he fight with the Winged King! The more I thought about it, the more angry I trembled.
"Little master, this ......" to go or not, they are halfway there, as a personal maid, they were brought into the palace to become a palace maid, and they were dazzled by a qiē in the palace, and they served Mei Chang wholeheartedly, maybe one day they can be summoned by the emperor and enjoy the glory and wealth like Mei Changzai.
"Go, why not." Mei Chang was holding her breath to see what kind of expression the Wing King would look like when she saw that she was pregnant. Then all kinds of pictures appeared in my mind to please myself, and my mood was a little better, and I raised my feet and continued to move forward with the support of Yahuan.
How could the scattered secret guards not know who was around, and gestured to the two masters to wait for things to develop, and concentrate on protecting their masters.
The concubines in the harem can only come here for one thing, that is, the emperor and show his delicate side, use the existing beauty to confuse the emperor to exert grace, and the small means between women cannot be elegant.
"Your concubine is here." Xi Chao blinked at Mu Jinming, with an indescribable hint of ridicule in his eyes.
"Whatever she does." Mu Jinming didn't care, and pinched the tip of Xichao's nose and smiled dotingly.
At this time, Mei Chang stepped forward cautiously and saluted the emperor, "The concubine has seen the emperor, the emperor is blessed, and the prince is a thousand years old." ”
"Get up, what's going on?" Mu Jin knew that the advisor was too lazy to give alms.
"The concubine personally blunted the sweet soup and invited the emperor to enjoy it." Mei often reveals the charm of a woman's bones in a coquettish and timid manner, hoping to attract the emperor's sideways.
"This kind of thing will be prepared by the Imperial Dining Room." Mu Jinming didn't want to touch something of unknown origin, and his father's lesson was especially in front of him.
Mei Changzai's smiling face was a little unbearable, and she pursed her lips and carefully looked at the emperor who was an arm's length away.
"Your Majesty, the concubine has always been unable to sleep well these days." Mei Chang stroked the slightly convex abdomen with one hand, and her eyes swept to the Wing King on the side, and the intention was understandable to the blind needless to say.
"Let the imperial doctor go to check the pulse, and you don't have to step out of the palace gate if you have nothing to do." Mu Jinming was too lazy to entangle with the woman, "I still have something important, step down." ”
Mei Changzai was just about to open his mouth to speak, but was stopped by the emperor, stared at the Wing King with annoyance, and bowed unwillingly to leave.
"It's a stupid one, I don't understand what it means to be happy and angry." The Xi Dynasty is accustomed to unprovoked hostility towards women, and looks down on this kind of little trick.
"There is no woman in the world who can match you." Mu Jinming stretched out his hand and stroked Xi towards his cheek, sighing that there was a sense of accomplishment that my family had a girl who had just grown up.
"Go to work, don't talk about this uselessness." The tide of time is strong and strong, and the things to be dealt with are put first.
"You're so ruthless." Mu Jinming lowered his face and pretended to be pitiful, "I'm praising you for being beautiful." "I wasn't moved at all.
"Pack less." Xi Chao glanced at Mu Jinming and didn't eat this set, "I'm going to be an adult, and I'm still pretending to be a child." "Be shameless.
"You will be in front of you as I am." Mu Jinming was very straightforward and straightforward in stating his original intentions.
"Let's go, I'm going to go to the Ministry of Engineering to see the progress, don't wait for me to give you a review." Xi Chao ruthlessly exposed Mu Jinming's little Jiujiu.
Mu Jinming, who was exposed, did not feel uncomfortable at all, but said with a bright smile: "You want to watch me die of exhaustion." The father has a spirit in the sky, and he can't bear it. ”
Xi Chao was too lazy to say something uncontained to Mu Jinming, so he walked away, leaving Mu Jinming standing in a daze.
Mei Changzai, who went back, only felt that she had lost face in front of the emperor. I was laughed at by the slut of the Winged King again, and it was strange that my heart was smooth, and I couldn't find a way to move to the Winged King to make the emperor change his mind, and the power in the hands of the Winged King was the root of the emperor's had to intersect, what is the way to call himself nothing!
No, no, I'm not nothing. Mei Chang was stroking her lower abdomen, smiling very weirdly, and her face turned blue with fright when she saw Yahuan. Appear to be screaming.
"Is the little master uncomfortable, do you want to call the imperial doctor?" Playing her duty of due diligence, Yahuan carefully inquired about Mei's constant presence.
"Go and call it." Mei Chang suddenly had a new plan to use this child to make it difficult for the Wing King to step into the palace. Coupled with the pressure of the courtiers, the emperor also let the winged king stay in the palace frequently. In this way, I have the hope of regaining my favor.
The imperial doctor arrived soon, because it was the first child of great significance, the imperial doctor was extra attentive when diagnosing the pulse, this child was the key to stabilizing the situation, and the imperial doctor who had been secretly told by the minister of the court did not dare to be the slightest neglect, and he had diagnosed the pulse and asked the daily food prescription to diagnose the situation.
There is nothing major to do, but I still need to meditate and recuperate, and I have prescribed a few warm and tonic prescriptions. Just as he was about to leave, he was suddenly stopped by Mei Changzai.
"The doctor may have diagnosed whether my baby is male or female?" Mei Chang can't wait to know the gender of the child in her womb, and the boy had better have a better chance of winning by himself.
"This. It's hard to say. "I can't diagnose it now, and I can't wait until five months to be sure." "Sometimes the pulse direction of the diagnosis is not necessarily accurate, and the child is too young.
Mei Chang raised her hand to ask Yahuan to send the imperial doctor, and she hesitated in her heart, did she really have to wait for two or three months? What if the Wing King leaves the palace again?
Mei Chang is not sure whether the emperor cares about this child or doesn't pay attention to it at all, the only thing he can use is the child, even if the emperor doesn't care, the court should care, so as to cure the sin of the Wing King, even if he can't hurt his muscles and bones, he will also have this bad breath.
Or instigated the courtiers to marry the Wing King, Mei Chang suddenly thought of such a good idea, what can the Wing King's status be high, not a woman can not avoid marrying after all, the heavier the weight of the Wing King in the emperor's heart, the more important it will be to the courtiers' house to be drafted in the future, and the Wing King will be sent away when the emperor has not opened his mouth to collect the Wing King into the harem, which is a good thing for a good job once and for all, I believe that the courtiers will not feel that they are taking advantage of it, but it is an opportunity to send at hand.
The emperor alone can't convince the courtiers, and he can't back down and compromise at that time, the ancestral family law has to be followed if he doesn't follow it, and Mei Changzai is dreaming of completely getting rid of the haze of the Wing King.
With this decision, Mei Chang was gently stroking her lower abdomen and muttered, "Don't blame your mother for being ruthless, if you're lucky, everyone will be happy." "On the contrary, I can get what I want, and I don't feel at all at a loss.
One morning after the court, the Xi Dynasty was about to go out of the palace to the household department, on the way a small eunuch ran over to spread the word that Mei Chang was going to see him, and he was suspicious, he had little contact with the women of the harem, which one was played today, he didn't go, he didn't have the time to see the tricks of the harem women, and he didn't want the little eunuch to live or die, so he had to go by himself.
Xi Chao didn't really can't avoid the little eunuch who stopped him, but he was just curious about where the little eunuch got the courage to block his way, who lent him the courage!
"Lord, the slave is acting on orders, begging the prince to have mercy on the poor little one." As he spoke, he knelt down and kowtowed, and his voice was muffled, and his forehead turned red after a while.
Xi Chao wanted to see what kind of medicine this Mei Chang was selling in the gourd, ignoring the kneeling little eunuch, and walked in the other direction with his feet raised, the place where Mei Chang was invited was not far from the imperial study, near the edge of the imperial garden, where there was a step.
Mei Chang was anxious waiting left and right, unsure if the Wing King would come, if he didn't come, wouldn't it be a waste to prepare in vain.
The little eunuch saw that the Wing King was gone, and went to the place where Mei Chang was staying, so he hurriedly stood up and followed, the back of his palms and head were full of sweat, if it weren't for Mei Chang threatening himself, how could he eat the bear's heart and leopard gall to block the way of the Wing King, just now it was really Xuan, what if the Wing King surrendered and directly called the guards to drag him down and cut off his head, fortunately, he escaped with his life, wiped off the sweat and trotted to catch up, his task was not over.
Mei Chang saw the Wing King walking towards this side at a glance, put away the undeserved look on his face, and stood dignified on the steps.
When the Winged King was about to arrive, Mei Chang turned his foot to the outside, and before he could salute, he leaned backwards, and the next moment he fell under the steps, and his outstretched hand grabbed the person next to him out of instinct, and this person must be the Winged King, even if he grabbed a piece of his sleeve, creating the illusion that the Winged King was pushing people.
In Mei Chang's calculations, the moment he fell, out of subconscious, the nearby Wing King should come forward to help him, so that he could pull the Wing King's placket and cause others to misunderstand, he was crying, with a skill, and finally fell to the ground and accidentally miscarried, and it was impossible for the palace people to come and go.
It's a pity that the plan seems to be thorough but ignores the essence, Xi Chao is so easy to deceive, and besides, Mei Chang is really unsightly in waiting for the little tricks that are not in the stream.
Xi Chao has good eyesight, and he saw at a glance that Mei Chang was standing in a position that was so prone to accidents, and at this time, there was no need to guess at all, just by his toes, he could imagine the effect that Mei Chang was trying to achieve in one fell swoop, which was really ridiculous.
Xi Chao did not walk close to the pace of the pace, but paused slightly and fell Mei Changzai had a staggered half-arm distance, just watching how Mei Changzai turned around, how to step on the air, how to make a posture of leaning back, fell down and fell heavily on the cobblestone ground, and fell so heavily that he immediately blurted out a cry of pain, and then Xi Chao was watching from the side and watching on the wall with no intention of making a move.
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and the little eunuch ran to see this scene, and his heart suddenly rushed to his throat, his eyes were round and his face was incredible, but he did not forget Mei Changzai's previous warning, although the situation deviated from the expected result, he still shouted for help to expand the situation for a while, and lowered his head and did not dare to look at the Wing King on the side.
Mei Changzai didn't expect that the Winged King didn't make a move, and when he fell, he glanced sideways at the Winged King, and the ridicule drawn by the corners of the Winged King's lips was imprinted into his eyes and filled his mind, the dull pain of falling on the uneven ground was something he hadn't expected, it really hurt very much, the screams of pain and the screams coexisted, and he didn't need to act a real experience to drink a pot for himself.
What happened here alarmed many palace guards, and they rushed to take a look, and when they saw the Wing King standing on one side, Mei Chang was lying on his back on the ground and moaning in pain, and his jaw dropped completely. (To be continued......)
