Chapter 76: Clever Tongue
Ran Yune knelt down with a "poof", his head slammed on the ground, "Wronged, the emperor, the old minister is wronged!" ”
Emperor Ji Wu didn't have a trace of emotion on his face, but a pair of gloomy eyes looked at Ran Yune burningly, "Wronged, how wronged?" Let's hear it. ”
"Your Majesty, yesterday the old minister did invite the dancing girl from Tianxiang Music Workshop to enter the mansion, and he really wanted the dancing girl to teach my eldest daughter Ran Xianchen, who came back from Jiaozhou, to dance.
That's because, in two months is the birthday of Weichen's mother, my eldest daughter grew up in the countryside of Jiaozhou, and she doesn't know anything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, in order to let her show her talent on Weichen's mother's birthday, and give Weichen's mother a surprise, Weichen went to Tianxiang Music Workshop and invited the dancing girl to come to Ranfu to teach her to dance, but she didn't expect that this matter would be used by someone with a heart to frame Weichen. ”
Ran Yune, an old fox, is really good at quibbling, if he wants to bring down Ran Yune, how can Shao Mingyuan not prepare? "Your Majesty, after I learned about this last night, I asked the guest to invite a few guests who were watching the dance and listening to the music in the Tianxiang Music Workshop to enter the palace, if the emperor allows it, they can be announced to enter the palace as a proof, proving that what Weichen said is absolutely true."
Without waiting for Emperor Ji Wu to ask, Ran Yuni hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the Emperor is wise, as we all know, I have a perennial disagreement with Lord Shao, and it is inevitable that I will not be used by people with intentions. ”
Then, Ran Yune kowtowed to Emperor Ji Wu reverently, "Your Majesty, what do you think, my eldest daughter grew up in the countryside of Jiaozhou, she is a vulgar country girl, and after returning to Kyoto, she is even more famous for her ugliness throughout Kyoto, how could I be so stupid to send such a girl to the palace?" ”
Ran Yuni is like a spring.
He dared to say this because he knew that most people in the court had never seen the Xianchen himself, only General Xia and General Qiu had witnessed the Tianzi of Xianchen, and both of them were Gu Zichen's people, even if these two were dissatisfied with themselves, at this time, for the sake of Gu Zichen's face, they would choose to be silent.
Emperor Ji Wu, who is ugly and ugly, has also heard of it, even if he recently heard that Xianchen is not ugly, Gu Ziqi also sent someone to protect Xianchen, threatening to scatter all the concubines for Xianchen, but he didn't see Gu Ziqi have any actual actions, the concubines who should be there are still in his mansion, and he has never mentioned Ran Xianchen in front of him, so Emperor Ji Wu only thinks that Gu Ziqi is messing around, and doesn't care too much about the rumors that Xianchen has become beautiful.
Even if Xianchen is really a beauty, she stupidly shook out her old bottom and made Ran Mansion lose face, this is always true, right? Sending a foolish daughter to the palace, Ran Yune will not be so stupid, because the woman is not smart, she has empty looks, and she will not live long in the palace, this truth Ran Yune should understand.
Emperor Ji Wu wondered, what was Ran Yune's motive?
At this moment, the eldest prince Gu Ziang said: "This king heard that Lord Ran's daughter who came back from the countryside looks like a country and a city, and it is not impossible for Lord Ran to move his mind because of this. ”
King Jing Gu Ziang coldly came up with a sentence, which caused everyone to talk about whether the eldest lady of the Ran family in the Ran Mansion was an ugly girl or a beauty?
Puzzled, confused, surprised...... Everyone's eyes looked at Ran Yunne.
Xianchen's beauty can't be hidden, so Ran Yune, the old fox, played a little word game in what he said.
He said - Xianchen is a vulgar girl in the countryside with an ugly reputation, he didn't say it - Xianchen is an ugly and ugly country vulgar girl, a few words in a sentence are different, the meaning of the words is completely different, and others can't catch his pigtails that bully the king.
Ran Yune looked at the eldest prince Gu Ziang respectfully, "His Royal Highness King Jing praised falsely, Chen'er is indeed not ugly and has a bit of a posture, when Chen'er returned home, the skin on his face was burned by the sun in Jiaozhou, and his face was coated with ointment, at that time, everyone saw Chen'er with ointment on his face, and he always felt that Chen'er looked ugly, so he also had a reputation for being ugly, even if the burns on Chen'er's face were healed and his beauty was restored, but because of Chen'er's reputation for being ugly, the old minister was loyal to the emperor, How could he do that kind of thing to send a daughter with an ugly stigma to the palace? Your Highness, it's better not to chase after the wind and blindly guess. ”
Caught off guard, Ran Yune also fell to Gu Ziang's army.
Emperor Ji Wu didn't like this eldest prince Gu Ziang, as soon as Ran Yune said this, a trace of coldness flashed in Emperor Ji Wu's eyes, and then it was fleeting and no one noticed.
Emperor Ji Wu couldn't think of any benefit to Ran Yune who sent his eldest daughter into the palace to his old fox, and he didn't believe in groundlessness, but as soon as Gu Ziang opened his mouth, he would inevitably think, isn't all this a game that Gu Ziang deliberately made in order to bring down Gu Zichen's power?
"Since it's a misunderstanding, forget it." Emperor Ji Wu said lightly, without the slightest intention of pursuing it.
A good opportunity was missed like this, Shao Mingyuan seemed unwilling, but when he saw His Highness Gu Ziang shaking his head at him, Shao Mingyuan also retreated with interest.
Gu Ziang knew that Ran Yune's matter could be big or small, and to put it mildly, he tried to use a woman to charm Junxin, and his intentions were punishable; To put it mildly, don't people just want to send a woman to the emperor? What's the big deal?
He also knew that this matter alone would not bring down Ran Yune, but the reason why he agreed to let Shao Mingyuan take this matter to Ran Yunni in the court was because he knew that Emperor Ji Wu was devoted to Concubine Yun and hated those unscrupulous courtiers who sent women to the palace for their own selfish interests.
After this incident, even at this moment, Emperor Ji Wu let Ran Yune go, he would have a dislike for Ran Yune and gradually lose trust.
Ran Yune is Gu Zichen's arm, as long as Emperor Ji Wu has a dislike for him and no longer trusts Ran Yune, he will be like cutting off one of Gu Zichen's arms.
There was no danger, Ran Yuni was shocked into a cold sweat, and even his underwear was wet.
On the streets of Kyoto, the news of the Tim Xiang Music Workshop last night also spread, and the Lord of Lingxi, who was walking on the street, heard this, and ran to the Ran Mansion in a hurry before he had time to think about it.
This time, the little guy guarding the door didn't dare to slack off when he saw the Lord of Lingxi coming, there was a lesson from the past, the little guy who once blocked the Lord of Lingxi from the door of the Ran Mansion has now been beaten and crippled and thrown out of the Ran Mansion, and they don't want this kind of thing to fall on their heads again.
The little guy was also a lot more enthusiastic about the county lord of Lingxi, and when he heard that the county lord of Lingxi was here to find the eldest lady, he brought the county lord of Lingxi all the way into the Guilan Courtyard of Xianchen.
The county lord of Lingxi was anxious, and when he entered the Guilan Courtyard and saw Xian Chen, he pulled Xian Chen and said, "Xian Chen, let's take a step to speak." ”
Seeing the nervous look on the face of the Lingxi County Lord, Xian Chen thought that something important had happened, so he brought the Lingxi County Lord into her room.
As soon as he stepped into Xian Chen's room, the Lingxi County Lord couldn't wait to say, "Xian Chen, do you know? Your father wants to send you to the palace! ”
It turned out to be this thing, seeing that this girl was in a hurry, the sweat wet her clothes all the way, and it could be seen that the lord of Lingxi really cared about herself, and Xian Chen's heart was slightly swaying, and the warmth instantly filled her heart.
"Seeing that you are sweating profusely, drink a cup of tea first." Xianchen poured a cup of tea for the Lingxi County Lord, handed the tea to the Lingxi County Lord, and then said, "I know what you said. ”
Slim Dust's answer was calm.
Lord Lingxi opened his big eyes like copper bells in disbelief, and looked at Xian Chen fiercely, thinking that this girl was so calm, probably because she had only been in Kyoto for a short time, and she didn't know who Emperor Ji Wu was.
The lord of Lingxi County didn't drink water, put the water cup aside, took Xian Chen's hand, and said to Xian Chen seriously: "Do you know Xian Chen? What does it mean to enter the palace? It means that you will be sent to serve Emperor Ji Wu, no one in the Ji Kingdom knows, Emperor Ji Wu only has Concubine Yun in his heart, how many young and beautiful women in the country were selected to enter the palace as show girls, Emperor Ji Wu has never touched any of those women, those women who have the opportunity to leave the palace are lucky, and those who have no chance to leave the palace are now guarding the widows. ”
The county lord of Lingxi spoke earnestly, and Xian Chen's heart was slightly astringent when he heard it, even the county lord of Lingxi knew that the palace was a fire pit, what about her scumbag father? He still wanted to push her into the fire pit.
Xian Chen's eyes were red, no one knew how much she wished that her scumbag father was not so scumbag, so that she wouldn't hate him, she would listen to her grandmother's words, and when she found out who was the person who chased and killed the master back then, she would leave Ran Mansion, calm down, let Ran Mansion and let herself go.
However, she wanted to let go, but Ran Yune and Yao kept pushing her into the cliff, forcing her to make another move.
"County Lord, don't worry, after today, he will dispel the idea of sending me to the palace." Xianchen said.
Lord Lingxi frowned, puzzled, "Why?" ”
Xian Chen looked at the county lord of Lingxi and smiled at her with relief, "The county lord knows about this, he must have heard it on the street, right?" ”
"Hmm." Lord Lingxi nodded.
Xian Chen continued, "Think about it, the people on the street know about it, and this matter will inevitably spread to the court, after Ran Yune's heart to give her daughter to Emperor Ji Wu is known to everyone, will she dare to send it?" Even if she dares to send it, will Emperor Ji Wu still accept it? ”
Lord Lingxi felt that what Xian Chen said also made some sense, and suddenly, she seemed to remember something, and said: "You know the rumors on the street without leaving home, did you release the news?" ”
Lord Lingxi looked at Xian Chen playfully, her bright eyes were rolling, as if to say, don't lie to me, I'm smart, I guessed right, right?
"Why should I put such a message out? It was just my luck that someone brought me a pillow when I wanted to sleep. ”
Xian Chen smiled, her smile was like a flower, the county lord of Lingxi naturally didn't understand what Xian Chen meant, she thought, as long as Xian Chen was not pushed into the fire pit, it would be a happy thing, so she scratched her head and laughed with Xian Chen.
The county lord of Lingxi entered the Ran Mansion, and naturally someone would tell the Yao family about it.
The Yao family knew that the county lord of Lingxi came to the mansion to find Xianchen, and secretly calculated in his heart, this Xianchen's ability was too big, and when he went to Cuiyue Lake once, he hooked the prince, the county lord, and the palace master, if she really entered the palace, it was inevitable that she would not hook Emperor Jiwu.
Yao's family knows a truth, dedication, men only love young and beautiful women with means, she doesn't believe in the beautiful legend of a lifetime and a couple, let alone the rumors outside - Emperor Ji Wu only loves Concubine Yun in his life.
She is a woman, and she is a woman who is relatively close to Concubine Yun, and she can see Concubine Yun's loneliness and loneliness from Concubine Yun's blue and waveless eyes.
She knew that the haggard and forced smile on Concubine Yun's face was definitely not what a favored concubine should have.
The Yao family didn't dare to think that if Emperor Ji Wu really favored Xian Chen, if Xian Chen gave birth to a son and a half daughter for Emperor Ji Wu again, how desperate and unwilling the Shen family's daughter would be after she soared into the sky, how unwilling she would ......!
