Yang Hai smiled slightly, looked at the soft and quiet woman in front of him and said: "Although the concubine has not seen Gege, but she has heard about Gege, and knows that Daoge is noble and noble, and her talent is outstanding, but because of what happened to her family, so it has been delayed so far, and now she can be given a marriage by the emperor to Prince Guo, which is really a great joy. ”

Fu Ying intuitively felt that Yang Hai still had something to say, but she didn't ask any more, and said, "I see, please thank Yang Gonggong on behalf of the little girl for her love." ”

"Our family must convey it to Gege, and our family will retire." After saying this, Yang Hai led the people away, leaving a thoughtful cherry blossom.

When Yang Hai returned to Chengqian Palace, he unexpectedly found that there was an official in the palace that he didn't know, dressed in a four-grade official uniform, and was sitting in the palace talking to Ling Ruo.

Ling Ruo stroked the edge of the teacup and said with a smile: "Zhang Cheng, have you seen Ah Yi?" ”

This person is the dog who used to wait for Yinzhen, and when he was released to be an official outside the house, he was given the name Zhang Cheng by Yinzhen, "If you go back to Niangniang, I have already seen it, and I heard the doctor say that Ah Yi will be born at any time during this time, and someone must watch it at any time." Speaking of this, Zhang Cheng said gratefully: "If it weren't for Niangniang to intercede for the slave, the slave would not have had this opportunity to return to Beijing, and the slave really didn't know how to thank Lu Xie Niangniang." ”

"It's just a matter of moving your mouth, what's there to thank, besides, it's the emperor who really promised you to return to Beijing, and if you want to thank you, you should go to thank the emperor." After that, she looked at Zhang Cheng's official uniform, and said with a smile: "This palace remembers that when you first left the palace, you were just a seventh- or eighth-grade petty official, but now you have achieved a dignified fourth-grade job, and you are very capable." ”

Zhang Cheng said with a smile: "Don't make fun of the minions, when it comes to skills, the minions can't match Li Wei next to the mother, he is now the governor of Zhejiang, and he is a product in the dynasty." When the slave is the same as Master Li, it is not too late for Niangniang to praise the slave. ”

"Whether it is a product or a fourth product, you should be praised for your loyalty to the emperor." Saying this, Ling Ruo said again: "You are now a court official, and you should no longer call yourself a slave in front of this palace." ”

Zhang Cheng bowed in the chair and said: "No matter what kind of official the slave is, in front of the emperor and his mother, he will always be the dog he used to be, and he has never changed." ”

Ling Ruo nodded slightly, and said with some emotion: "In this life, the most difficult thing to do is not to forget your roots, you are very good, and you have not wasted the emperor's attention to you." ”

Zhang Chengzheng said: "The emperor and the mother treat the slaves well, and the slaves never dare to forget." ”

Ling Ruo raised his eyes and glanced at Yang Hai and the others, the latter hurriedly retreated, leaving only Sanfu to wait in the house, but when Yang Hai was about to cross the threshold, he was unexpectedly stopped by Ling Ruo, and quickly stopped and lowered his hand to wait for the order, but this time the waiting time was a little long, and after a long time, Ling Ruo spoke again, "Go and ask Father-in-law Xi to come over, this palace has something to say to him." ”

After Yang Hai retreated, Zhang Cheng whispered: "I don't know what Niangniang has to tell the slaves?" ”

Ling Ruo nodded and said, "This palace remembers that Ye Xiu was ordered by you to go to Wuhua Pavilion to give death, and the reason why it was changed from deposed to death is because the emperor found many pinch marks on the second elder brother's body, and it is suspected that Ye Xiu deliberately strangled the second elder brother in order to pay attention to the emperor and go to her more, right?" ”

After many years, Zhang Cheng didn't expect Ling Ruo to suddenly mention it, and he couldn't react for a while, and after a while, Fang said: "If you go back to Niangniang, it's really like this, I don't know why Niangniang mentioned the old things many years ago." ”

Ling Ruo didn't speak, and Sanfu on the side said: "Because in fact, those pinching marks were all done by the queen, and they have nothing to do with Ye Xiu at all." In Zhang Cheng's surprised gaze, he said: "I believe that Master Zhang also knows that the slave of Lu Dao was the one who served the queen before, and no one knows the inside story at that time better than the slave." ”

Zhang Cheng said suspiciously: "Even if this is the case, the Ye family is not worthy of sympathy. ”

Ling Ruo put down the tea that was halfway drunk, and said, "This palace is not to sympathize with her, but to let the second elder brother know how his biological mother died and who died in whose hands." ”

"Since that's the case, it's good to let Gonggong Fu tell the second elder brother." Zhang Cheng's words made Ling Ruo smile bitterly, "The second elder brother was raised by the queen when he was a child, and he believed in the queen's words, do you think he would believe it just by a few words of Sanfu?" ”

Zhang Cheng thought about it, and said tentatively: "Could it be that Niangniang wants the slave to say?" The slave is no problem, but I'm afraid that the second elder brother still won't believe it. ”

This palace knows this way, and if you tell him clearly, he will not listen, and if he wants to believe it, he can only take a circuitous road. Because of this, the palace asked Yang Hai to invite Sixi to come over. ”

Zhang Cheng frowned and said, "Forgive the slave for being stupid and not understanding what Niangniang meant." ”

Ling Ruo hesitated slightly, and told Zhang Cheng in detail about the plan he had prepared before, Zhang Cheng was shocked, and looked at Ling Ruo speechless.

"This palace knows that it is really difficult for you to do this, but apart from you, this palace really can't find a suitable candidate, and I hope you can read that this palace has helped Ah Yi in the past, and help this palace." Saying that, Ling Ruo actually got up and was rude to Zhang Cheng, so frightened that Zhang Cheng almost jumped up from the chair, and hurriedly said: "Niangniang, don't do this, the slave really can't stand it." ”

After Ling Ruo straightened up, he looked at Zhang Cheng without speaking, the latter knew that she was answering in her own way, which made him very embarrassed, and this matter can be said to be very important, especially the last sentence...... Zhang Cheng couldn't think about it, if he was told by another person, he would definitely refuse without hesitation, but this is Concubine Xi, who once saved Ah Yi's life, how could he refuse.

After hesitating again and again, Zhang Cheng finally nodded in agreement, gritted his teeth and said: "Meng Niangniang is so trusted, the slave must do his best not to disappoint Niangniang." ”

His words made Ling Ruo let go of his apprehension, and said gratefully: "Thank you, this love will definitely be firmly remembered in this palace and left for the next day." ”

Zhang Cheng shook his head again and again and said: "Niangniang's words are serious, even if you want to pay it back, it is a slave who will repay your life-saving grace to Ah Yi." However, whether the second elder brother will believe it or not, it is not something that a slave can control, and I hope that Niangniang will forgive me. ”

"Hongu understands." While speaking, Yang Hai had already invited Sixi over, and after he came in, he called Ling Ruo and said, "I don't know what Niangniang wants to find a slave?" ”

"There's something in this palace that I want to ask Grandpa Xi for help." After a pause, she said, "This palace remembers that Gonggong Xi has an apprentice named Xiao Wu, right?" ”
