Chapter 50
Xingwang peeked at Ye Xun from time to time on the carriage, he knew that it would be useless to say anything now, he didn't say anything, just patted his hands. When he arrived at Yefu, Xingwang helped Ye Xun get out of the carriage, and when he saw that he was still a little swaying, he asked, "Are you okay?" I'll send you in? ”
Ye Xun shook his head and entered the door by himself.
Ye Xun walked into the small garden in despair, Ruoyu was playing in the yard with four little hairy heads, he bowed and stepped back to tease a few children, "Come on!" Chase me! It was hitting Ye Xun, Ye Xun was unstable, and he fell to the ground. Ruoyu turned around and said angrily, "You don't have long eyes!" Rampage! ”
When Le'er saw her father, she leaned over and climbed on top of her father for Ye Xun to hug. Seeing that Ye Xun was sitting on the ground and couldn't get up, those boys also climbed on top of Ye Xun.
Ruolian heard the voice, "What's wrong?" Ruoyu, what are you yelling about? ”
Ruoyu was afraid that her sister would talk about him, so she hurriedly defended, "Eldest sister, it was my brother-in-law who hit me, but he sat on the ground and couldn't get up." This...... Isn't it touching porcelain? ”
Ruolian smiled, "Can your brother-in-law still lie to you?" I'll see what's going on? When she saw Ye Xun's trance-like expression and the wound on her head, she immediately woke up, "Ye Xun! What happened to you? Ruoyu, you get the children away! Ruolian tore the children off Ye Xun and handed them to Ruoyu, and asked eagerly while helping Ye Xun up, "How did you get this?" What happened? ”
Ye Xun was afraid that Ruolian would be worried, so he pretended to be relaxed and said, "I'm fine, I'm just too tired." Just go back to your room and rest for a while. ”
Ruolian saw the gauze on Ye Xun's hand, "What?" Injured hand too? You're ......."
"It's all a small injury, it's not in the way. Let me lie down in bed for a while. I didn't eat dinner. ”
Ye Xun has been sleeping since he returned to his room. At night, Ruolian finished cleaning up and returned to the room, and found that Ye Xun's eyes were closed, his expression was painful, his face was flushed, and when he touched it with his hand, his forehead was hot and hot. Ruolian panicked and didn't know what to do, so she hurriedly ran to call Xiaohu and Tao'er. Xiaohu went to ask for a doctor, Ruolian and Tao'er used a lot of local methods to reduce his fever, wiped his body with a hot towel, wiped his feet and palms with wine, and the medicine that Xiaohu grabbed was also poured down for Ye Xun, tossing for half a night, Ye Xun always had a high fever. Ruolian was frightened and asked Xiaohu to ask for a doctor. But it was already the middle of the night, and it took me a long time to knock on the door. The doctor said angrily, it's useless to eat herbs for fever, you can wipe your body with soju when you go home, if the fever goes away, it's fine, and if you can't go away, there is nothing he can do.
Ruolian asked Xiaohu and his family to go back to the room to rest, and stared at it alone. Throughout the night, Ruolian kept wiping Ye Xun's body with soju, and she couldn't sleep all night.
In the morning, Ruolian sat in front of the bed and held Ye Xun's hand, staring at him anxiously and distressedly. Finally Ye Xun woke up quietly, he squinted his eyes to look at the sunlight outside, "It's dawn?" What happened to me last night? ”
"Are you awake?" Ruolian touched Ye Xun's forehead, "Finally no fever." You had a high fever all night last night! Scared the hell out of me! ”
Ye Xun saw the bloodshot in Ruolian's eyes and the haggard face, and squeezed Ruolian's hand distressedly, "You haven't slept all night?" Hard work lady. You can rest for a while. I'm fine. ”
Ruolian smiled, "It's okay with me. As long as you are well, I will be happy, and I will be full of energy without sleep for three days and three nights. You...... What happened yesterday? What happened? ”
Ye Xun smiled miserably, "It's all over, don't mention it." ”
Ruolian didn't force him, "Okay, it's all over, don't mention it if you don't mention it." You didn't eat last night, I'll make you some white porridge. ”
"I had a nightmare last night, it was so uncomfortable!" Saying that, Ye Xun tried to sit up, but failed, and lay back on the pillow, "Huh? What's going on? My head hurts, and my whole body feels like I'm falling apart. ”
"Don't be in a hurry. I had a fever all night last night, and my body must have hurt. You can sleep a little longer. I'll go and bring you the porridge. Ruolian helped Ye Xun fold the quilt and said pitifully.
In the morning, Wen Du presented yesterday's daily report to the emperor, he licked his lips, and finally couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty, Ye Xun had a high fever last night, and his family went to knock on the doctor's door in the middle of the night, and it seems that he is not lightly ill." Ignorance...... What happened yesterday? How did he react so much? ”
The emperor glanced at him and didn't bother with him, "I just wanted to scare him." He had a better attitude, begged for mercy, and said a few nice words and passed! As a result, he ran out of patience and began to educate! and openly disobedient! I almost didn't get mad at him! So, I didn't hold back, and I started a little harder. ”
"Ruthless? For a person like Ye Xun who doesn't eat oil and salt, apart from you threatening him with his family, I can't think of any other way to make him like this. ”
The emperor nodded reluctantly.
"But the emperor, you know that family is his weakness, if you use this, he will definitely be obedient, but his heart is getting farther and farther away from you."
The emperor said angrily, "Do I want his heart to do?" As long as people are obedient. ”
Wen Du looked at his expression, knowing that he was duplicitous, and it was inconvenient to say more.
The emperor suddenly spoke, "You go with me to see him." ”
Ye Xun heard that the emperor was coming, he was very surprised, and finally struggled to sit up, the emperor had already entered the house, Ye Xun wanted to get out of bed and salute, but the emperor stopped him, "Don't get up!" No more salutation! The emperor moved a chair and sat in front of Ye Xun's bed, and said to him very kindly, "Are you better?" Rest well and take care of your body. ”
Ye Xun dodged the emperor's gaze, "The minister has nothing to do, and he can return to the military department tomorrow." is also tired of the emperor's worries, and the ministers are grateful. ”
"Don't be in a hurry to go back, keep your family in a down-to-earth manner, and I won't let them detain you." The emperor saw that there were no outsiders in the house, and Wen Du stood by the window without glancing at him, so he whispered to Ye Xun, "Don't hold a grudge against me, I just wanted to scare you yesterday, so you should make a joke with you." ”
"This ...... How so? Minister... Can't. Ye Xun said timidly.
"And we're still the same as before?" The emperor could feel the fear and alienation in Ye Xun's eyes, and he knew that he might never go back to the past, but he still asked.
"Of course." Ye Xun squeezed out a smile and smiled.
After a while, Ruolian came in a hurry, "Ye Pan's greeting to the emperor." ”
"Mrs. Ye, quickly excuse me." The emperor said kindly. "I heard that you took care of Ye Xun last night, it's hard work."
"That's what a woman should do. Your Majesty, we are so honored that you can come to see Ye Xun in your busy schedule! Xiaohu told me just now, I don't believe it. Alas? Wendu also came. What are you doing there? Come and sit. I'll pour you tea. ”
"Ma'am." Wen Du nodded at Ruolian and moved over as if reluctantly. When Wendu entered the house, he just glanced at Ye Xun in a hurry, and he never looked in Ye Xun's direction again, let alone collided with his eyes.
After the emperor and Wen Du left, Ye Xun finally breathed a sigh of relief, Ruolian felt his discomfort just now and his heart was heavy at this time, and deliberately said, "You are getting worse and worse now, and even the emperor will come to see you in person when you are sick." Just now, the colt also brought a gift, and when he heard that the emperor was there, he put down the gift and left. Say I'll see you again when I have time. ”
Ye Xun just weakly hooked the corners of his mouth and didn't speak.
"By the way, how do I feel weird today, my eyes are shining?"
"He?" Ye Xun's tone was a little contemptuous, but his eyes were very sad, "I'm afraid I've done something wrong." Ignore him! Don't pay attention to him in the future! ”
"What's wrong with you two?" Ruolian smiled at him helplessly, and touched his forehead dotingly, "Don't have a fever, do you have anything you want to eat?" I'll do it for you. ”
A few days later, on this day, Ye Xun was working on official documents in his own office of the Ministry of War, and his secretary came to report that someone had summoned him to the emperor. Ye Xun suddenly felt a 'chuckle' in his heart, he hurriedly took care of the work in his hand, tidied up his clothes and went out, and it was Wendu who was waiting at the door. Ye Xun ignored him and walked towards the imperial study alone, and Wen Du silently followed behind him.
After walking a little way, Wen Du suddenly said, "Don't remember the events of that day, it has nothing to do with me." ”
Ye Xun sneered and ignored him.
Wen Du said a little excitedly, "I admit that I did it, and I won't take the blame if I didn't do it!" I know you've decided that I was in front of the emperor. Yes, I said that you received calligraphy and paintings, but I really don't know what happened next, and it is not something I can control. After the incident, you should feel that the emperor had a seizure because of this incident? Without this, the emperor will still find something else to treat you, this is just an introduction. ”
Ye Xun just walked forward vigorously, not picking up his stubble at all.
"You're not going to talk to me for the rest of your life, are you? If you ignore it, ignore it, I'm not rare, anyway, I have a clear conscience. Wen Du suppressed his anger and pretended not to care.
Entering the main hall, Ye Xun kowtowed and saluted, "Flat." Ye Xun, you... Check this out. The emperor looked a little embarrassed and handed Ye Xun a fold.
Ye Xun got up and took the fold with both hands, and after reading it, he was shocked and frightened, and knelt down again. It turned out that this was an excerpt to impeach Ye Xun's father, Ye Shiqing, for embezzlement and bribery, but the most unpredictable thing is that this excerpt was an excerpt from six years ago, and Yingyun, the original six subjects who wrote this excerpt, has also resigned and returned to his hometown.
"Your Majesty, this was all six years ago. Ye Xun didn't believe that his father would do such a thing, and there was no excuse for the crime he wanted to add. Moreover, after many years, it is now inconvenient to visit human and physical evidence, and it is not easy to prove my father's innocence. Please also ask the emperor to be clear. Ye Xun said indignantly.
"You get up first!" When the emperor saw that Ye Xun was still stubbornly kneeling on the ground, he gave Wen Du a look.
Wen Du stepped forward to pull him, "The emperor asked you to get up and speak." ”
Ye Xun shook off Wen Du's arm and stood up by himself. Ye Xun saw that the emperor and Wen Du were looking at each other, and their eyes kept communicating something, as if they didn't know how to speak. Ye Xun seemed to understand something, "Your Majesty, if you have anything you need your ministers to do, please make it clear." As long as you give the order, the minister will definitely go to the soup and fire, and he will not give up. It's true...... It doesn't have to be. Ye Xun looked at the impeachment note in his hand and said.
The emperor smiled a little embarrassedly, "I don't want to do this, but you, sometimes...... I can't help you. We have a program that we would like you to join. This plan is now known only to the three of us. Wendu, you tell him. ”
Wen Du cleared his throat and said, "Our plan is...... Assassinate the Marquis of Qingyuan, clean up the remnants of his party in the capital, and put his scattered power back into the hands of the emperor. You are the most critical step in the plan......"
"Let me assassinate the Marquis of Qingyuan? Why...... Will you choose me? Ye Xun asked a little puzzled.
"Because the emperor trusts you, and because you are good at kung fu, you have the best chance of assassinating the Marquis of Qingyuan. After the assassination, the emperor will arrange for you to go to other places to hide from the limelight. Seeing that Ye Xun wanted to speak and stopped, Wen Du hurriedly said, "Don't worry, we will guarantee the safety of your family, and when it is almost dealt with here, you can come back." Now the problem is just in case, we have to make a scene first to clear up your relationship with the emperor and make you grudge with the Marquis of Qingyuan. ”
Seeing Ye Xun bowing his head and being silent, the emperor said sincerely, "Ye Xun, you know how uncomfortable I have been pressed by the Marquis of Qingyuan all these years, you must help me!" ”
"Minister, obey!" Ye Xun bowed his head and said.
"Ye Xun, don't be so restrained. Let's touch the plan together in a moment. After a while, I will deliberately alienate you, and let Wendu communicate with you if there is anything. The emperor looked at the two of them back and forth, and when he saw that the two of them were awkward, he smiled and said, "You two won't still make trouble, right?" Come and shake hands, hug it, the unpleasantness is over, and we will have to cooperate sincerely in the future. ”
Wen Du smiled a little embarrassedly, "It's that he has been ignoring me." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to Ye Xun.
Ye Xun looked at Wen Du's outstretched hand and patted it perfunctorily.
