Chapter Forty-Eight: Infighting
On the evening of the day when Zhang Mian was ordered to go to Nanhuai, He Kuan also came out of the mansion in disguise and invited Ouyang Jie to go out, wanting to inquire about Chunyu's family from him.
At a tea stall in the west of the city, two adult men dressed in ordinary clothes sit facing each other, talking about what it is like to do some fur business after autumn.
"This morning, the two aunts and uncles took the children to the house, saying that there was a delay in the past, so they returned home to visit their in-laws." Ouyang Jie frowned and took a sip of crude tea, and said in a deep tone.
He Kuan raised his eyebrows, hooked the corners of his mouth and said: "I know about this, I guess I am afraid that Your Majesty will be suspicious and come back to dispel suspicion." ”
Ouyang Jie raised his eyes to look at him, the expression on his face seemed to be a little indifferent, "Chun Yuyan's father-in-law has indeed passed away, the eldest aunt and aunt only returned home in March, and the Wei family is also because of the brother-in-law, so they stayed in Luning for these days. ”
Finding that Ouyang Jie's face had changed, He Kuan also suppressed his playful affection, frowned at him and said with some hesitation in his tone: "The Li family is excusable, but how can the Wei family stay in Luning for such a long time because of their kinship?" ”
"It doesn't matter, the point is that they're back."
"Have you told Your Majesty about this?" He Kuan asked.
"Not yet." Ouyang Jie said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, He Kuan frowned slightly, looked Ouyang Jie up and down, and said with some doubts: "What do you want to say." ”
Ouyang Jie took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and said in a calm tone: "Your Majesty doesn't want the queen to be hurt in the slightest, and I don't want the inner body to live in pain for the rest of the year." ”
After hearing this, He Kuan couldn't help laughing, "Brother Ouyang, I thought you weren't a person who loved children. ”
Ouyang Jie was not annoyed by He Kuan's ridicule, his tone was still as calm as water, "You haven't married yet, you don't understand......"
"Okay, okay, I know what you're going to say. But I can't be the master of this matter, everything is up to Your Majesty to decide. He Kuan waved his hand and smiled.
Ouyang Jie looked at him quietly, and when he smiled, he spoke: "Your Majesty has selfish intentions in doing things, let alone you and me?" I just came to tell Brother He that in the matter of Chun Yu's family, Brother He must be cautious, since His Majesty has handed over this matter to you, you must not transfer it to others. ”
He Kuan heard it in a fog, and was about to ask a question or two, but Ouyang Jie got up and said with a smile: "It's been a long time, it's time to go back, and the business in the north will have to worry Brother He." ”
Although he didn't understand what he was talking about, He Kuan didn't want to ask again, so he got up and clasped his fists and saluted, "Brother Zhang is polite." ”
On the way back to the inn, He Kuan kept thinking about Ouyang Jie's words, but he couldn't think of a reason. Ouyang Jie is not a person who likes to play dumb riddles, but why is he so secretive? Thinking like this, I was so distracted that I was almost hit by a rushing carriage.
"Hey, you don't have long eyes when you walk?" The coachman scolded.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." He hurriedly apologized.
"If you're blind, don't come out and harm others......"
"Aqing, don't be rude." Inside the carriage, a man scolded.
He Kuan was a little familiar when he heard the voice, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Nie Yan lifting the curtain to look at him, his eyes sinking like the water of a deep pool. He was stunned for a moment, then bowed, "I've seen sir." ”
Nie Yan didn't have the slightest surprise on his face, bowed his head slightly, and said calmly: "Come up." ”
He Kuan looked around, didn't find anything wrong before getting into the car, and as soon as he sat down, he heard Nie Yan say in a deep voice: "The families of the Chun Yu clan and the Wei clan have returned." ”
Hearing this, He Kuan was a little surprised, he was in charge of monitoring Chun Yu's family, how could he know about it in one day? Could it be that he also secretly sent someone to spy on him? He was full of doubts, but his face was as calm as water, "I came back yesterday." ”
"Chun Yu's heart, now everyone knows, since he dares to show his shortcomings in front of others, we have to seize this opportunity. Chun Yu Jiafeng King Day, it must be Chun Yu's death. ”
He Kuan glanced at him and said with some hesitation: "This is what Your Majesty meant?" ”
Nie Yan smiled, "Your Majesty is young, and it is inevitable that you will not be thoughtful in doing things, you and I, as courtiers, should check and fill in the gaps for Your Majesty." ”
He Kuan's heart sank, and he vaguely understood something, in addition to the Chun Yu clan, I was afraid that there would be another Nie clan. Thinking about it this way, I also understand what Ouyang Jie said today. Once the Chunyu clan is destroyed and the Nie clan sits on the throne, then the Yong Dynasty will probably not have the status of the Ouyang clan. It turns out that on the surface, everyone is single-minded, and they all have their own little abacus in their hearts.
"Chun Yu's clan is destroyed and the world is decided, and when you and I are all ministers of the dragon, it is better than relying on others before. The old man has always admired his vision, and he must not be wrong this time. ”
He Kuan knew that because of Chun Yu Nian's face, Zhao Huan would not kill Chun Yu's family, since the emperor had such an attitude, of course he would not be stupid enough to get on Nie Yan's boat for this little profit, and do things that harm others and himself.
"There seems to be something wrong with what Mr. said," he said with a smile, "You and I are courtiers after all, and we always look up to others, and if these words are heard by others, I am afraid that it will not be good for Mr. ”
Hearing this, Nie Yan couldn't help laughing loudly, "Thank you Mr. for reminding you, the old man must be careful in his words and deeds." He paused, and then continued, "I just wonder if Mr. is willing to work with the old man to solve problems for His Majesty?" ”
"Mr. Zai Xia is also an old acquaintance, and he is all for His Majesty, so how can he say that he is not a fellow believer? The gentleman was overwhelmed. He Kuan's tone was mild, but anyone could hear that it was perfunctory.
"Mr. is loyal and patriotic, if the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are like Mr., why is the world uneasy?" Nie Yan said approvingly, "But monitoring the two clans, this matter is serious, and the old man wants to send a few cadres to help Mr. in case of emergency." ”
He Kuan couldn't help but glance at Nie Gan, he didn't have the ability to monitor the Chun Yu clan and the Wei clan, so he stretched out his hand to his side, although he didn't want to participate in the struggle between them, the royal relatives and nobles, but he didn't have an excuse to fully refuse, let alone dare to offend him, so he had to reluctantly agree. As for Nie Gan's banquet, he refused because he should not be out for too long.
Nie Yan watched He Kuan get out of the car and go away, and couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth, Zhao Huan was worried about the personal affairs of his children, and it couldn't be a big deal, and the world of the Yong Dynasty still couldn't be handed over to young people.
……
Let's say that Zhao Huan, after a busy day, finally had time to see Chun Yunian, and happened to meet Ouyang Yu to invite Ping An Pulse, he felt strange, how could it be so late to ask Ping An Pulse?
"The nephew at home has a stomach problem, so it was delayed." Ouyang Yu said in harmony.
Zhao Huan sighed, asked Chun Yunian's condition, and said that he would definitely reward him after the queen gave birth to the prince safely. Ouyang Yu didn't shirk it, and hurriedly said thank you, Your Majesty.
"The minister doesn't seem to be looking very good at His Majesty, why don't you let the minister help you clear your pulse?" Ouyang Yu asked.
Zhao Huan sighed, "I haven't slept well these days, and I may be a little angry." ”
Ouyang Yu took out the pulse pillow again, and said in a harmonious voice: "The world depends on you, you should focus on the jade body." ”
Chun Yunian looked at him and said with some reproach: "I never cherish myself, there are three illnesses and two pains, and it is not you who is distressed." ”
Zhao Huan smiled, "What's the matter?" It's just a few days of insomnia, so don't worry. ”
Chun Yu Nian snorted coldly, looked at his scratched hand and said, "I have never seen anyone who still has eczema after the heat." ”
Ouyang Yu glanced at her, held back a smile, withdrew his hand and said to Zhao Huan: "Your Majesty's pulse is short, but it is no big problem, wait for the minister to prescribe two flavors of fire and calm the nerves, it will be fine in a few days." As for eczema," he glanced at Chun Yu Nian before he said slowly: "It's caused by excessive anxiety and insomnia, although it's not a big deal, but Your Majesty must also pay attention to rest, and it is not advisable to overwork, otherwise if you have herpes, it will not be just the extent of scratching the skin." ”
Zhao Huan hurriedly nodded and said yes, for fear that Chun Yunian would count him down in person if he said it was too late, and he would not save face at all. Sure enough, as soon as he finished saying this, Chun Yunian spoke, "Peace, after the second watch, I must remind Your Majesty to go to bed, if I go to see that I haven't gone to bed after the second watch one day, this palace will ask you!" ”
"The little one understands, the little one understands." Ping An said in fear, but in fact, he was bitter in his heart, when will His Majesty go to bed, which is his one of his ministers who has the final say?
Ouyang Yu smiled and said nothing when he saw this, got up and saluted and retired, and did not forget to tell Zhao Huan to live well when he left. Zhao Huan glanced at him and asked Ping An to send people out.
After the person left, he smiled and reached out to touch Chun Yunian's head, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm strong, but I have eczema, and it's not a serious illness." ”
Chun Yunian sighed helplessly, held his hand, and said in a harmonious voice: "The battle is almost over, you should quickly summon them back, so as not to have too many dreams at night." ”
"They fled to South Vietnam under the pretext that they could not be called back." Zhao Huan sighed, held her hand and kissed it, "Don't worry about this, no one is as important as you." ”
Chun Yu Nian didn't feel good in his heart when he heard it, "If you can't call back a holy decree, you will have two, and if you can't do two, you will have three, if it still doesn't work, you will say that he is disrespectful to the decree!" ”
"That would have been worse," he said in a slow tone, "and it would have forced him to do the opposite." ”
"Just let him go?" Chun Yunian frowned.
"It's not, Liu Song has already gone to Zhongshan, and then he will use Pingzhong Mountain as an excuse to transfer the army away, which is safer." In fact, he had a bargaining chip, but he didn't tell her, for fear that she would worry. The people of the Chunyu clan have been controlled by him.
Chun Yunian nodded, sighed and said, "It's hard work." ”
Zhao Huan smiled and pointed to his cheek. Chun Yu Nian glared at him, but couldn't help but laugh and dropped a kiss on his lips.
At night, when Chun Yunian fell asleep, Zhao Huan got up gently, walked outside the bedroom and greeted him safely, presenting a note, "This is what Imperial Doctor Ouyang asked the little one to hand over to you." ”
He saw Ouyang Yu's meaningful eyes, so he let Ping An send people out of the door, and sure enough, this person who has nothing to do with himself here really has something to say to him.
"Yongzhou nursery rhyme: 'Nanyang He Gong, Fubi Tao Zhu. Yin Tong Sima, send food to the army. Fill your own pockets and make a fortune in the war. Situ pleaded, and the Son of Heaven only had money. Flee and stay at home'. ”
After looking at it, he squeezed the note tightly in his hand, it turned out that Chun Yujia was waiting for him here! Then don't blame him for being unkind!
