Chapter 11 Morning and Night Detective
Yan Ge Lao received his daughter's notice and hurried to the palace. The arrival of Princess Nanchu a few days ago made him feel deeply uneasy, he didn't expect his daughter to be crowned a concubine so soon, even if the concubine position is high, it means that she will not have a chance with the queen. Thinking that he Yan Ge Lao had worked for Murong Hao for so many years, although he did not kill people and set fires, but because he was firm in his position, he had done a lot of things, and he also married his daughter to him, but after he ascended the throne, Murong Hao left them, and Yan Ge Lao regretted being used by Nangong Hao for so many years for the first time.
Questioning along the way, Yan Ge Lao had unknowingly arrived at the gate of the palace. After getting off the sedan chair, he hurried to the Jade Concubine's bedroom. He was still thinking about things all the way, and suddenly, a little eunuch bumped into him.
The little eunuch hurriedly stepped back and knelt down, "The adults spare their lives, the adults spare their lives, and the small ones don't mean it." ”
Yan Ge Lao, who was already upset, was even more angry, but this was the palace, and it was not easy to attack, so he flicked his sleeves violently: "Get out." ”
It's just that he didn't notice that after he left, the little eunuch behind him turned his head and looked at him deeply, without the slightest look of fear on his face. Instead, he ran in the direction of the Imperial Study.
The Jade Concubine's Bedroom "has seen the Jade Concubine Niangniang." "Yan Ge old saluted.
"Father, please get up." Concubine Yu helped Yan Ge Lao up, turned her head to the palace man beside her, and said, "You all go down." ”
"Qing'er, you have been wronged."
"Father, how can the emperor treat me like this." Concubine Yu began to cover her face with a veil and wipe away her tears.
"Qing'er, don't worry, wait for your father to find the emperor."
"The holy decree has been issued, how can there be a reason to take it back, father, as soon as Princess Nanchu enters the palace, I am afraid that there will be no way for her daughter to live."
"Qing'er..."
Yan Ge Lao looked at his daughter's bloodless face, becoming thinner and thinner, and couldn't help but feel distressed for a while, he was bent on seeking justice for his daughter, and immediately rushed to the imperial study.
"See the emperor."
"Yan Aiqing, please get up, I don't know why Yan Aiqing is so anxious." Ask while knowing the answer.
"The minister dares to ask the emperor if he wants to marry the princess of Nanchu. Could it be that the emperor has forgotten the promise he made to his ministers? ”
"Bold, are you reprimanding me?" Murong Hao threw the fold in his hand and threw it on the table.
"The old minister doesn't dare." The monarch is the king, the minister is the minister, Yan Ge Lao had to kneel, face the respect of the Ninety-Five, and bow his head to the small.
"That's right, I did promise to make Qingyu the queen, but I never expected that Nan Chu wanted to marry the princess Yu Zhen. My foundation is unstable, and I cannot afford to refuse. Yan Aiqing has worked hard for me for many years, and I think Yan Aiqing will understand this simple truth. ”
"It is rumored that Nangong Qi, the princess of Nanchu, is rude and willful, cruel to others, your emperor, you have harmed Qingyu and chilled the hearts of the old ministers. What's more, this Nanchu princess is suddenly going to marry, and she has bad intentions, so she has to guard against it. ”
"Nonsense, I have been married to Qingyu for many years, and I will never harm her. Southern Chu is my ally. ”
"Your Majesty..."
"Say no more, go on." The emperor seemed to be angry, and as a courtier, even if he was dissatisfied, he had no choice but to comply.
"The old minister retired."
Yan Ge returned to the mansion in a gray manner.
Soon, the eunuch took the holy decree to read it, which was nothing more than the emperor rewarding Yan Ge Lao with a large number of rewards, Yan Ge Lao forced a smile, and after the eunuch left, he smashed the cup on the table fiercely, and his face was darker than the bottom of the pot. This scene has long been reported to Mu Ning.
The night is dark and the wind is high, and the night is haunted by the peak.
Yan Ge Lao sat in the study and remembered his only daughter Yan Qingyu, his wife died early, and his daughter was his life. never willing her to be wronged, and wanted to satisfy her with everything, until a hundred flowers banquet a few years ago, his daughter cried and cried to marry Murong Hao, who was still the second prince at the time, from the moment he promised his daughter, he knew that he was no longer a courtier who could not be offended, but a henchman of the second prince, but now, ......
Suddenly the door was opened, and two men, one black and one white, walked in, this black is the morning sun of a man dressed as a woman, and it is Na Mu Ning who is still dressed in white clothes in this night.
Yan Ge stood up in a panic, but did not shout. There were a lot of guards around him, plus there were dozens of people sent by Murong Hao to monitor, these two people were extraordinary, and they walked in generously, so those people should not be dead and were put down.
"Sure enough, it's Yan Ge Lao, so calm and composed." Chenxi raised his eyebrows.
"If Your Excellency comes to take the old man's life, I'm afraid the old man has already gone to Huangquan, let's say, what's the matter." Yan Ge Lao's voice remembered.
"Elder Ge knows very well that Murong Hao is not as good as Murong Jing, and this throne will return to the right person sooner or later. Why should the elder do a senseless struggle. Mu Ning said lightly.
"Hmph, now that the emperor has succeeded to the throne, it is not so simple for the former prince to take the throne."
"As soon as the emperor succeeded to the throne, your daughter was treated like this, and after that..."
"No, Qing'er is at least the emperor's concubine, and glory and wealth are indispensable."
"Glory and wealth, hum, there are so many emperor women, you can't bear to see your daughter alone in the empty room, watching your husband and other women happy." Chen Xi was excited, and then took another dose of fierce medicine, "Then he became a victim of jealousy between women, and finally together with your Yan family, he will never recover." ”
"But Qing'er is already married to him, and she is already his person." Elder Yan Ge was already moving.
"Then what, your old Yan Ge's daughter is not bad, will no one want it? It makes more sense to find someone who loves her to live well than to marry into the royal family. ”
"Qing'er, she..."
"Your daughter will not love the emperor, it was a mistake for you to marry him to Murong Hao, I believe you have also seen it." Chenxi saw that Yan Ge was embarrassed, and said again.
"Our purpose is simple, as long as you stop helping Murong Hao and tell us where the old emperor is, we can save your life and your daughter's life and your official position."
Is that true? It really can save our lives. ”
"Seriously."
"Okay, I'll believe you once."
"It's just that this old emperor..."
"There are a lot of Murong Hao's other courtyards, you can pay attention, I don't know about the others."
"Thank you, seniors, I'm leaving."
Mu Ning and Chenxi left with their hands, leaving the elder standing in place. Many years later, when he looked back on this day, he was extremely honored to receive a thank you from these two people, which changed his life and that of his beloved daughter.
Out of the old mansion. Mu Ning suddenly hugged Chenxi and whispered in her ear: "Xi'er, I won't let you be wronged, it's good to believe me." ”
Chen Xi didn't speak, and hugged Mu Ning with both hands, those words to Yan Ge Lao were also her heart's words, he just understood.
The night was hazy, and the two embraced each other affectionately. The corners of his mouth are raised, and a smile blooms.
