Chapter 387: The Assassin
The courtiers congratulated Emperor Shengxi one after another and praised Zhao Guohua Tianbao.
was very happy, Emperor Shengxi did not refuse, drank cup after cup, and Concubine Yu took the opportunity to sing a song. The beautiful and beautiful singing overpowered the sound of silk and bamboo, and the dancers danced one after another, bold and unrestrained.
Seeing Emperor Shengxi drunkenly enjoying the song and dance, Su Zhiyu secretly muttered that something was wrong with the emperor.
Seeing that all the ministers were holding wine glasses and Su Zhiyu was empty-handed, Du Ruonan hesitated for a little and stuffed a glass of wine to Su Zhiyu, and said in a low voice: "Take it and pretend, Zhiyu, have you seen the bright moon?" ”
The palace man who poured the wine couldn't help but remind: "Miss Du is cautious." ”
Looking around and seeing that no one was paying attention, the palace people whispered: "Don't mention the queen in front of Your Majesty, Niangniang has been grounded in the Jiaofang Palace for a long time, and the back seal was taken away a few days ago, and Your Majesty is not allowed to mention Niangniang." ”
"If it weren't for the mother who saved the slave, the slave wouldn't have told you this."
Ma Li poured a full bottle of wine, and the palace man turned to Concubine Yu with the wine jug, and whispered a few words in Concubine Yu's ear.
With a bright smile, Concubine Yu returned to Emperor Shengxi and quietly raised her glass to Du Ruonan, which was the reward for the queen's storytelling.
What does Concubine Yu mean?
Deliberately letting the palace people talk about Su Mingyue's situation, is it a deliberate trap?
Knowing that it was a trap, she had to jump down.
Pulling down the corner of Su Zhiyu's clothes, Du Ruonan whispered: "I want to go to see Mingyue." ”
"If you want to go, I'll go to the banquet." Su Zhiyu agreed without saying a word, he also wanted Du Ruonan to meet Su Mingyue, at least he would not read Su Mingyue's name in his dreams occasionally at night.
A daughter-in-law shouts someone else's name in bed, even if it's a woman.
Happily sneaking out of the palace banquet, Du Ruonan met a palace person who had just informed Su Mingyue of the situation at the banquet.
"The slave maid was ordered by Concubine Yu to lead Miss Du to see the queen's mother, and the mother said that the time was limited, please Miss Du hurry up." The palace people saluted and urged Du Ruonan to hurry up to the Jiaofang Palace.
That anxious look is questionable.
"It's not the queen who saved you." Du Ruonan is sure.
"This is the corner gate of the Jiaofang Palace, the slave and maid will guard here, and the girl will enter from here, don't exceed two quarters of an hour."
The palace people avoided answering and signaled Du Ruonan to hurry up to see Su Mingyue.
From the Yufei Palace to the Jiaofang Palace, the palace people stopped and walked, just avoiding the patrolling guards, and successfully arrived at the corner gate of the Jiaofang Palace.
As soon as she wanted to ask Concubine Yu's intentions, Du Ruonan was urged not to waste time.
After all, the idea of wanting to see Su Mingyue prevailed, and Du Ruonan gritted his teeth and entered the Jiaofang Palace.
The palace people in Jiaofang Hall are very familiar with Du Ruonan, and they can recognize it with their eyes closed, and they are surprised that she has come to Jiaofang Palace.
"Miss Du, did His Majesty also let you come here to be grounded?" The people of Komiya are bold and curious.
"No, what about your mother? I don't have much time to stay, so take me to Mingyue first. Du Ruonan didn't want to waste time and went straight to Su Mingyue's bedroom.
In the dormitory, there was no thought of Emperor Shengxi, Su Mingyue's whole person was drained of energy, she was lying sickly, her face was sallow and her eyes were blank, as thin as paper that ran away when the wind blows.
Sitting on the edge of the bed quickly, Du Ruonan grabbed Su Mingyue's arm and choked softly.
"Mingyue, why did you become like this? Your Majesty has wronged you? ”
Back then, he and Su Mingyue jointly ran Ruoyu Building, Du Ruonan remembered how many young talents were wandering at the door of Ruoyu Building.
The lively guy got acquainted with this suitor, and came back to learn that they called Su Mingyue the goddess of Mingyue, and Du Ruonan made fun of this matter in private.
But look at the appearance of this life thinner than paper, who dares to say that this is the goddess of the bright moon?
"Ruonan, don't cry, I was sick with the night wind two days ago."
Comforting Du Ruonan at a loss, Su Mingyue struggled to get up, "Your Majesty is confused, you have to be careful." ”
"And Prime Minister Su, as far as he slandered in front of His Majesty, saying that you and Su Zhiyu wanted to rebel." Su Mingyue said whatever she wanted, and after speaking, she urged Du Ruonan to leave quickly, Jiaofang Hall is not a place to stay for a long time.
Seeing that Su Mingyue was sick, Du Ruonan didn't worry that she was taken care of by the palace people.
At this time, the palace people came in and said: "The palace people from the corner gate asked to transfer to Miss Du, saying that the Imperial Forest Army is about to change its guard and cannot be delayed any longer." ”
"Ruonan, don't worry, I'll take care of myself." Su Mingyue repeatedly assured.
Knowing that the matter was urgent and could not be delayed, Du Ruonan gritted his teeth and left the Jiaofang Hall with a ruthless heart to join the palace people in the corner gate.
The palace people took Du Ruonan all the way, wanting to rush back to the Yufei Palace as soon as possible.
She had just received a message from Concubine Yu.
The old fool of Hubu Shangshu auctioned Ruoyu Lou at the palace banquet, and Emperor Shengxi agreed.
The courtiers all knew that Ruoyu Lou was Du Ruonan's property, and the public bid was to show that he was hostile to Su Zhiyu, and if he did not bid, he lost face to the emperor.
Seeing that the emperor's face was bad, Concubine Yu was worried that the palace banquet would end early, so she urged Du Ruonan to go back quickly.
She was willing to give Su Mingyue a convenience, but she was unwilling to put herself in. Fat cat bar
Understanding the cause and effect, Du Ruonan silently quickened her pace, and when she slipped into the palace banquet, she happened to meet Yang Cheng's voice.
"The scholar does not understand mundane affairs, and he also knows that Ruoyulou is a treasure, so he throws bricks and leads jade here, bids five thousand taels of silver, and is shy and shy." Yang Cheng pretended to be in pain and handed over five silver tickets.
The book of the household belongs to Pixiu, and it only enters and does not leave.
Letao put the silver ticket in his pocket, and the head of the household said: "Thank you Lord Yang for donating 5,000 taels of silver to the treasury, and your colleagues should not be stingy." ”
"Isn't this talking about Ruoyulou?" Yang Cheng raised his eyebrows.
"It's one thing, the high price takes away Ruoyulou, and the rest are all colleagues to share the worries of the treasury, and they don't owe credit."
Aiming straight at the courtier's money bag, the household department Shangshu shrewdly calculated.
are all officials in the same dynasty, who still doesn't know whose bottom line, if someone dares to pretend to be confused, the head of the household doesn't mind lifting people's old bottoms.
"I also joined in the fun, and gave out 10,000 taels of silver, Master Su's family has a rich background, and the shot must be something that poor scholars like me can't match." Prime Minister Su joined in the fun in a weird way, and squeezed Su Zhiyu as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Old thing, you just got a calligraphy and painting worth 10,000 taels of gold two days ago, so you took 10,000 taels of silver to prevaricate?"
Without waiting for Su Zhiyu to make a move, Hubu Shangshu dismantled the stage first.
Gritting his teeth and glaring at the Hubu Shangshu, Prime Minister Su Cheng's face was distorted, this is something that can be said in front of the emperor?
If you don't do it, you will be a bribe, and you won't be able to keep your head, Prime Minister Su Cheng said painfully: "You can also use calligraphy and painting to offset the price, then add calligraphy and painting, and I will let someone send it to you when I go home." ”
"Is there any other offer?" Tobe Shangshu asked beautifully.
The courtiers hid back one after another, and they didn't want to be named by the head of the household, and they were a little unclean under their hands after being an official for a long time.
"I gave 50,000 taels of gold, is the head of the Dog Emperor worth 50,000 taels of gold?" An unfamiliar voice suddenly came out of the palace banquet, the palace people and courtiers were in a mess, and Su Zhiyu stopped Du Ruonan's waist in front of Emperor Shengxi.
"You stand with Your Majesty, and I'll stop the Assassin." Su Zhiyu was not afraid of danger and was very calm.
Looking at Su Zhiyu's back with a complicated expression, he drank a lot of wine, Emperor Shengxi even wanted to persuade Su Zhiyu not to pretend, even Concubine Yu was more sincere than him. Concubine Yu had already seized the opportunity to roll on the ground, she wanted to be glorious and rich, but she didn't want to live and die with the emperor.
In a panic, the courtiers' palace returned to calm.
This Assassin couldn't do it, and he was caught by the Guards after just a cruel word.
The assassin was twisted in front of Emperor Shengxi, with obvious characteristics, one tall, one short, one thin and one fat, and everyone who had dealt with him recognized it as the Song Gao duo.
"Your Majesty, these two people are Chen Shusheng's accomplices, and what they say is not credible."
Afraid of extraneous branches, the third prince preemptively revealed the identity of the assassin and implored the emperor to dispose of the two as soon as possible.
"Shi can be killed, but not humiliated, Lao Tzu is Su Zhiyu's dead soldier, today is here to take the emperor's dog's life, Lord Su saves our brother." Lao Gao retorted vigorously, dutifully pulled Su Zhiyu into the water, and rolled his eyes and kicked his legs before the words fell.
It's very dead.
The brother is gone, and Song Fatzi doesn't want to live alone, so Su Zhiyu quickly clicked the acupoint and couldn't move.
"What does Su Aiqing think about this matter?" Emperor Shengxi stared at Su Zhiyu playfully.
He knew that Song Gao and the others were not Su Zhiyu's subordinates.
also knew that if he wanted to rebel, Su Zhiyu would not use such low-level means, and Emperor Shengxi wanted to wronged Su Zhiyu.
"This fat man once turned into the Su Mansion and stayed for three hours before coming out, this is what I saw with my own eyes, Su Aiqing wants to say that you don't know these brothers? Someone came to take down the traitor Su Zhiyu and put him in the prison, and no one was allowed to visit him without my will. ”
didn't want to listen to Su Zhiyu's defense, and Emperor Shengxi was directly convicted.
"Your Majesty, please think twice." The courtiers and daughters knelt on the ground, and Emperor Shengxi's eyes hurt.
Again.
It's exactly the same as in the study.
As long as they wanted to convict Su Zhiyu, the courtiers would work together.
How terrible this scene is, it was the founding emperor who had this treatment in the history of Zhao State.
As long as he raised his arms and shouted, the imperial power changed hands, as long as he thought of such a person before the couch, Emperor Shengxi would have trouble sleeping.
Whether it is wronged or misunderstood, Emperor Shengxi just wants to sleep peacefully.
"There is no need to discuss this matter, put Su Zhiyu in prison, this little thing still needs to be done by me? Or do you also think it's good to mix with Su Zhiyu and follow the dragon's skills? Emperor Shengxi's face was hideous, and his eyes were full of red bloodshots.
It's like a person who smokes five stones.
"Whoever dares to move Su Zhiyu will step over my corpse!" Du Ruonan angrily blocked in front of Su Zhiyu and opened his arms, as if he knew Emperor Shengxi for the first time.
"Miss Du, please don't embarrass us." The Guards are in a dilemma.
"If you want me to tie my hands, I can arrest it, I want to say a few words to Ruonan alone." Su Zhiyu grabbed Du Ruonan in time.
Emperor Shengxi waved his hand and agreed, as long as Su Zhiyu confessed to his guilt, he could say anything.
was led to the side hall of the Warm Pavilion, Du Ruonan was angry, "I just wanted to plead with the emperor, why did you pull me?" ”
"The emperor can't listen to anything now, it's useless to talk more, I have a guess that you can tell the third prince and General Lin to investigate." Su Zhiyu lowered his voice and paused word by word, "I suspect that Your Majesty has been infected with five stones." ”
