720 into the palace

As soon as Wen Shu left the palace, he asked someone to send a letter to Lu Mansheng and invited her to come to Mingyue Fort to see her.

She is outside the palace, there is only one hour, and after finishing her work, she must return to the palace as soon as possible, and if she is late, things will change.

Lu Mansheng was worried about how to see Wen Shu, and Wen Shu's subordinates came. She immediately packed up and rushed to Mingyue Castle.

"You say, the emperor asked you to secretly find out about this matter for him?"

Wen Shu nodded, in fact, the emperor is not only close to Mingyue Fort and the County Mansion, but also to Xie Xiaoji. Two years ago, a shocking case in Dayang was brought forward by the emperor and asked Xie Xiaoji to be responsible for solving it.

Who called Xie Xiaoji's cleverness and ability to solve cases, not only famous in the rivers and lakes, but even the imperial court knew about it.

"Xie Xiaoji's whereabouts are uncertain, and no one can find him if he wants to hide. It just so happened that we were all friends of Xie Xiaoji, and the emperor couldn't find him, so he left us on an errand. Xie Xiaoji knows that we are in charge of this matter, and he will appear when the time comes. ”

If Xie Xiaoji investigates this matter, then the matter will be simple.

"There is one more thing, Mansheng, in this matter, I am afraid that the county mansion will be suspected by the emperor again. I'm also in an awkward situation, and many things may be powerless......"

"What does this have to do with the county government?"

It is understandable that Lu Mansheng did not react, the emperor's words were extremely vague, and Wen Shu realized the emperor's true meaning because he was in it.

"The emperor said that this matter was a conspiracy carefully brewed within the Dayao royal family in collusion with important ministers of the Dayang court. did not point to the Dayang royal family, but named and said that he was an important minister, so I can't think about it too much. ”

The Pingnan County Duke of the County Mansion has always been loyal to the imperial court, and the emperor does not doubt the loyalty of the County Mansion. But after the big case two years ago, the emperor was very jealous of the Quartet generals who controlled the military power. And the prince of Pingnan, who can mobilize 200,000 soldiers and horses of Dayang, bears the brunt of the attack and has become the object of the emperor's vigilance.

No matter how loyal the courtiers are, they can't stand the emperor's suspicion and suspicion. In the past two years, although the Pingnan County Mansion has maintained its prosperity on the surface, the situation has actually deteriorated greatly.

"A year ago, the death of my second brother hit Grandpa Jun hard. His mind has changed drastically, and he is not as cautious as he used to be, and I am worried about his ......"

The second brother in Wen Shu's mouth, Lu Mansheng had heard her talk to Miss Wang.

Wen Ting, the world's first piano master, is said to have been unparalleled in the world with graceful piano skills. Countless literati and writers wrote poems and praised: This song should only exist in heaven, and it is rare to hear it in the world. Wen Ting has the reputation of the saint of the qin, but for the sake of a century-old feud, he buried himself.

"In order to save me, the second brother was infected with a body of poison. After that, he disappeared. No matter how many people I send to look for him, there is no whereabouts of him. Until a year ago, he returned to the county mansion, had the last meal with his family, and left Linyang City. I followed him all the way to his mother's grave, and there he fell......"

Wen Ting, the most beloved son of Wen Zheng, the prince of Pingnan County, died like that. His mother has left him with irreparable regrets, and his son is like this. If he could eliminate the hatred in his heart as soon as possible, then Wen Ting would not have achieved such a result.

Wen Zheng took all this as his responsibility, and after that, his body deteriorated all of a sudden, and he also suffered from headaches.

He refused Wen Shu to treat him, and Tong Qiuyu and the eldest lady and the second lady were worried. There was no choice but to let Wen Shu go in while Wen Zheng was sleeping, secretly check his pulse, and treat his headaches.

Because the health of the county grandfather is getting worse and worse, the eldest lady and the second lady, who originally had a lot of opinions about Wen Shu, regarded her as a savior. Even with Tong Qiuyu's status in the county mansion, it has risen in a straight line.

Several women who were originally fighting fiercely gradually united when their master had an accident. If the master is gone, what's the point of them fighting to the death?

But Wen Zheng's headache was cured, but his problem was not fully recovered.

Wen Shu said that his headaches were psychological, not physical. His headache has recovered, but his body and his brain already have deep memories of headaches, and he is psychologically driven, so that every time he is stimulated, the headache will be committed. For this problem, he can only let the pain in his heart slowly ease, and when he lets go of his second brother's affairs, the headache may be cured.

In fact, it's no wonder that the county grandfather was hit by this.

His four sons, the youngest of whom had epilepsy since he was a child, had a high fever and burned out his brain, and was still a child in his twenties.

After Wen Shu came here, he began to treat Wen Liang's epilepsy, and after so many years, Wen Liang's epilepsy has been cured. It's just mentally, because I've never grown up, I've always been a child.

His third son is sound, but he is a standard gentleman, and he comes back from time to time, which makes Wen Zheng so angry that he blows his beard and glares.

The second son is Wen Ting, who was originally Wen Zheng's most outstanding and proud son, but he became a public enemy of the rivers and lakes. In the end, he turned back in time, dragged his disabled body, and went away to the end of the world.

and his apologetic eldest son, a good man, but he practiced himself and couldn't turn back, and he was ashamed to see it.

Thinking that Wen Zheng is such a proud and majestic person, his four sons broke his heart, and the Pingnan County Mansion has also become the laughing stock of Linyang City. Wen Zheng was extremely angry and hurt, and gradually, his body collapsed.

In the past, Wen Zheng was wise and decisive, and he saw the movements of the imperial court and the thoughts of the current emperor through everything.

Ginger is still old and spicy, so to speak. Although the current emperor is good at scheming and likes to control people's hearts, Wen Zheng is much older than him in this regard.

But because of Wen Zheng's headache and the constant blows, he became more and more annoyed by the emperor's suspicions, and his temper became more and more irritable. Sometimes, dissatisfaction with the emperor and the court is directly expressed on the face. did not carefully resolve the emperor's temptation, which made the emperor more and more dissatisfied with Wen Zheng.

When a courtier does not respect the emperor as much as before, or does not grovel, then the superior will not tolerate it.

The prince of Pingnan County also tolerated the temptation and suspicion of the emperor to the limit. When he had a headache, he even shouted in the palace that the little emperor would do whatever he wanted, the old man had been fighting for so many years, and he had been on the battlefield for Dayang, and when he killed the enemy and the first emperor killed the Quartet, the little emperor had not yet been born.

The Pingnan County Mansion has the eyeliner of the imperial court, which is something that Wen Shu knew when he first came over. Wen Shu and Wen Ting are very cautious in what they say and do, and sometimes they deliberately do something to show the emperor. Now, Wen Zheng shouted these words in the mansion, and he really didn't care about it.

Several ladies were so frightened that their faces were as pale as earth, and they wept and pleaded in front of the master, but the master just refused to put down his body. When there is no way, you can only consult with Wen Shu.

Pingnan County has four sons and three daughters, and the four sons have already said that they can't rely on it now. Of the three daughters, the wisest and gentle, married off to a neighboring country and became a famous female military division. The second daughter is stubborn and willful, only thinking about attracting bees and butterflies every day, and at the critical moment, the only one who can be relied on is Wen Shu, who was the least valued before.

Although Wen Shu was not born to the Pingnan County Prince, the County Mansion was her mother's husband and her mother's dependence. It is impossible for her to break away from the Pingnan County Duke like this, and for the sake of her mother, she cannot let the emperor attack the county princess.

"Since the emperor is suspicious of the county mansion, why do you want to hand over this matter to the third young lady, just to test your loyalty?"

"It's because of the suspicion of the county government that we are asked to do these things." Xie Xiaoji's temperament is known to the whole world. Even if his best friend commits a crime, he will not tolerate mercy, all he cares about is the truth and the justice in his heart.

And Wen Shu and Admiralty Tower, these two people are the same. The emperor believes that these two people have not been involved in this matter for the time being. If Wen Zheng really has different intentions, they will definitely stop it. Until the last resort, they will not let go of the peaceful life, hang their whole wealth on this unrelated father, and accompany him to commit the great crime of exterminating the nine clans.

Of course, there is also a purpose to hide people's eyes. I'm afraid that the emperor's all-pervasive eyeliner in Linyang City, as well as his great commander of the Shenji Pavilion, are also secretly investigating this matter. As soon as they have a different heart, they will be immediately monitored.

When the time comes, the official army will be dispatched, the mansion will be raided, and no matter how powerful you are, you will become a prisoner before you can react.

"Third Miss, I know some information, let me go and meet the captured Princess Yuling, maybe I can ask for some clues."

"What's the situation?"

"I'm sorry, but I can't tell Miss Three first. You're worried about whether the county government is involved in this matter, I'll try to get it out of that woman's mouth. Knowing whether the county grandfather has a rebellious heart, you can also concentrate on what you want to do next. ”

"This ...... The palace is heavily guarded, and even I rarely act alone. To bring someone into the palace, I'm afraid it's not easy. "If it were usual, Wen Shu would still have a way. Now that the emperor has just been assassinated, Ouchi is under martial law. Not only are others not allowed to leave the palace easily, but no one is allowed to enter the palace at this time.

"Please, Third Miss, I have something very important to confirm. If you know the answer, it will be very helpful for this case. ”

"Do it yourself?"

"Yes." Lu Mansheng's eyes were sincere.

Wen Shu nodded, "Although there is a risk, if the emperor knows about it, he will suspect that we have ulterior motives, but since Mansheng said so, then we can still afford to take a little risk." The emperor's illness is at a critical juncture, and I went out of the palace this time just to get medicine, so I happened to bring an assistant over. It's just that I was wronged and wanted to be my apprentice. ”

Lu Mansheng laughed, "Not aggrieved, being able to be the apprentice of Doctor Wen is an honor for many doctors." ”

Wen Shu snorted, and looked Lu Man up and down. "With the apprentice of the great imperial doctor, the pressure of being a master is great."

The two of them looked at each other and suddenly smiled.

"Be careful in the palace, if you want to see Princess Yuling, I will find a way to arrange it for you. At other times, they all follow me, asking them to know the identity of your imperial physician, for fear that there will be new incidents. ”

Now those people in the palace are catching the murderer of the emperor all over the street. If such a person is sent to the door, no matter how clean and innocent he is, they will insist on putting some charges on you. The Shenji Pavilion directly under the emperor is the information department responsible for the entire Linyang City, they are the ears of the emperor, and they are also the flies that others hate the most.

These people, in order to please the emperor, do not do evil. Although today's emperor is still quite wise, listening to these people buzzing in his ears all day long, he will inevitably make a lot of wrong judgments and unjustly kill a lot of good people.

But since ancient times, there has been a monarch who dares to guarantee that every person he kills and every family he copies is a heinous crime. Imperial power was originally to maintain his supreme authority. Truth and loyalty are not the whole story, but whether you displease him or hinder him.

Lu Mansheng agreed, this was her first time going to Dayang Palace, and Wen Shu, who should pay attention, told her on the way. If the guards asked, they would follow what they had agreed upon. On the side of the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, Lu Mansheng will explain to them.

On the way, Wen Shu told the Queen Mother what she had promised her.

"The Queen Mother promised to give you a wish, even if things are really bad, they will not embarrass you for your meritorious role in saving the emperor." This wish is difficult to save the entire county mansion, but Wen Shu's mother and daughter are absolutely no problem.

She believes that the emperor is a smart person, a little ****, there is only good for him, there is no harm, and he can't do it so badly.

"The Queen Mother is a kind old man, although when she was young, she also experienced a bloody storm. But in recent years, eating fasting and reciting Buddha has been a lot of benevolence. The queen is a good woman. If she wasn't the empress of Emperor Qingming, maybe we'd be friends. ”

"The county government, in your opinion, is it involved in this matter?" Lu Mansheng couldn't help but ask.

"Probably not, even if the prince of the county is angry with the emperor's suspicion of him, he will not do anything that is unfavorable to his family and country. Moreover, it is impossible to commit deception and provoke contradictions between the two countries. ”

The prince of Pingnan County has been fighting for most of his life, and finally the world is peaceful, and he will not bury all these efforts. That's right, Wen Zheng is a little stubborn, but when it comes to major rights and wrongs, Wen Shu can definitely trust him. Even if his heart changes greatly this year, he will not think about assassinating the emperor, let alone the idea of replacing him.

"Since the third young lady is convinced that the county government is not involved, why is she so worried?"

"I'm afraid that the county government will be used for no reason and become someone else's scapegoat."

"How so?"

"Only a few people know about this, and I didn't intend to tell you about it, because if you do, you can't help but worry about me. But since you have come to the palace, many things can only be known to you in advance. Wen Shu's expression was a little solemn, "The poison in the emperor today is very scarce in the rivers and lakes, and it is even said that only one person has it." ”

"Who?"

"Me."

"......" (To be continued.) )
