Chapter 215: The Truth

It turned out that the reason why this arrogance was rampant in the imperial court under the pretext of Fu Cao's distant relatives was only because her grandmother, the niece of a small attendant, had saved Fu Cao's life. Therefore, when the Zhang family took this matter to ask Fu Cao to help Zhang Huan get a half-official position, although Fu Cao was very disgusted, he remembered that he had indeed received soft favors from others, so he did not refuse.

However, she only told them that she could give them the opportunity, but whether she had the ability to be reused depended on the arrogant creation. In this regard, the Zhang family can be said to be grateful to her, and kept telling her that she must help the Zhang family say good things, and also said that Zhang Huan will work hard and will not live up to her expectations.

For this time, Fu Ke really took it to heart, after all, she owed someone a favor, as long as it was not too much, she would be happy to have the opportunity to repay this love.

But because she was going to go out with Leng Yue at that time, she couldn't handle this matter herself, so she handed over the matter to Mu Xiuyu, saying that Zhang Huan was her distant relative, and asked Mu Xiuyu to see if there was any suitable position, and casually ranked Zhang Huan.

At that time, she also emphasized to Mu Xiuyu that when arranging positions, Zhang Huan's talent must be strictly assessed to see if Zhang Huan is really competent, if he can, he will use it, and if he can't, he will give up. Don't mess up the discipline because of her.

Although Mu Xiuyan was full of promises at that time, she was thinking in her heart that the characters who could be recommended by Fu Ke in person would definitely be outstanding. And it seems that this person has a good relationship with Mu Cao, otherwise, he would not have let Fu Cao come forward to help her in person. Therefore, she also took this matter to heart. After all, this was the first time Fu Ke asked her to do something. If she can't even do this little thing, then I'm sorry for their friendship for so many years.

Therefore, when she later recommended the position of a court official for Leng Yue, she directly pushed Zhang Huan to a five-grade official, although it is not very big, but it is not small, plus Zhang Huan This person does have some ability, as soon as he entered the official career, he used the name of Fu Cao to form a gang in the court. has accumulated a lot of popularity for himself. Even if someone doesn't like it, they will look at Fu Cao's face and give her three points.

After a long time, he slowly developed a more and more arrogant temperament. In just two years, she not only climbed from the fifth rank to the high position of the third grade, but also made the civil and military officials in the court in awe.

Because behind her, there is not only the backer of General Fu, but also the blessing of Prime Minister Mu, in the past two years, although Prime Minister Mu has not done anything for Zhang Huan in the open, but in secret, he has helped her a lot, as long as he is a clear-eyed person, anyone can see it. This Mu Zai is relatively arrogant.

Therefore, such a person, let me ask the world, apart from Your Majesty, who else dares to provoke her? It is also because of this idea that Zhang Huan will act more and more lawlessly. Because she knew that even His Majesty, in the face of the Mu and Fu families, would definitely give her three points of face.

After all, His Majesty's country was built by relying on these two families. Without the help of these two families, His Majesty would not have been able to sit on the number one country in the world. Therefore, she didn't have a lot of respect for Leng Yue in her heart, and even said that she had some contempt. And the Yun family is even less regarded by her. Now that she has the support of the Mu and Fu families, no one in the world dares not to sell her face.

It's just that she never dreamed that Leng Yue not only didn't give her face, but even the Mu and Fu families were almost implicated because of her.

Leng Yue was thinking about it, when she suddenly heard Fu Cao's shouting voice from outside the imperial study, "The criminal minister Fu Cao and the daughter of the criminal minister, Fu Ling, ask your majesty to surrender." ”

Leng Yue twisted her eyebrows a little funny, who said that generals are brave and unscrupulous? How does she feel now, this Fu is more cunning than a fox?

If this Fu Ke cries out for himself as soon as he comes, then he can also punish her with a crime that he doesn't know well. But now, as soon as she came, she took the initiative to ask for sin, so she just wanted to have a seizure, but she couldn't have a seizure.

Because, now no one knows better than himself that in this matter, Fu Ke is wronged and can no longer be wronged. If you want to say that you are guilty, then you should first investigate Mu Xiuyan and his own crimes.

Leng Yue knew that if she hadn't let Fu Ke go out with the army, and Fu Ke would personally deal with the arrogant matter, then such a thing would not have happened. Besides, if it weren't for Mu Xiuyu's deliberate indulgence, such a thing would not have happened either.

Now, if I understand all this, I will come to punish her sin. That would seem to be very unconscionable. If she cried out for herself as soon as she came, even if the matter had nothing to do with her, but it was caused by her, then it would be reasonable to punish her for the crime of not knowing people.

But now, she came to ask for her guilt with great fanfare, but she couldn't cure her crime, otherwise, after the news spreads in the future, people in the world will say that she is narrow-minded and has no room for others, and she may even bring a right and wrong by the way. It's not good for you.

At this time, Leng Yue was blocked in her throat in one breath, unable to spit out or swallow, this feeling made her particularly uncomfortable. Although she is very confident in the loyalty of the Yun, Mu, and Fu families to her. But this incident was like swallowing a fly, and although she was not seriously hurt, she felt particularly disgusted.

The people outside the imperial study couldn't hear Leng Yue's response for a long time, so they kowtowed vigorously on the ground. He also shouted in his mouth: "The sin deserves death, please give it to your majesty..."

Listening to the sound of the head slamming the ground hard, Leng Yue felt that her head hurt more than theirs, and when it was half loud, she sighed helplessly and walked towards the outside of the imperial study.

As soon as I went out, I saw Fu Ke and Fu Ling's mother and son kowtowing on the ground, because they were too hard, their scalps were broken, and blood slid down their cheeks, looking so miserable.

Leng Yue hurriedly walked over to help them up, and said sharply in confusion: "What is wrong with you, is it because something happened at the border pass, what happened to make you so anxious, as long as you tell the reason, I will not cure you for leaving your post without permission." ”

The implication is that if something doesn't happen at the border pass, then they will be punished for the crime of leaving their posts without permission, which can be big or small, the small one is a light punishment to teach a lesson, and the heavy one is a capital crime.

As soon as Fu Ke heard this, his face turned white, it seems that her trick was seen by His Majesty, and now His Majesty will not condemn her for arrogance, but this crime of leaving her post without permission will definitely not be escaped.

Fu Deng didn't think as much as her mother thought, and when she heard Leng Yue say that they left their posts without permission, she hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, although that arrogance was recommended by the minister's mother to become an official, but my mother only thought about repaying her kindness at that time, and she didn't think that she would do whatever she wanted in the court in the name of her mother..."

Before she could finish speaking, Leng Yue interrupted her and said, "What I asked is why you left your post without permission. Didn't I ask you about your arrogance, and what does this arrogance have to do with you? One of you is in the army and the other is in the DPRK, how can you get involved? Or is it related to Zhang Huan? ”

Fu Ingot was stunned by her words, didn't the Taishi say that His Majesty might be angry with the Fu family because of his arrogance, so he asked them to come back immediately to ask for guilt? But what does Your Majesty mean now, is it that Your Majesty doesn't know that Zhang Huan is the person recommended by his mother.

Thinking of this, she couldn't wait to bite her tongue off, if His Majesty didn't know, then if she said this, wouldn't that mean that she didn't confess? She just wanted to open her mouth to put this matter to rest. Fu Ke immediately glared at her fiercely. Then he kowtowed to Leng Yue again before saying, "Please Your Majesty don't listen to the little girl's nonsense." She wants to be beautiful and crazy, that's why she's like this. ”

Fu Deng looked at her mother with an incredulous face, her eyes full of surprise and puzzlement. They are obviously here to ask His Majesty for their guilt, how can my mother say that she wants to be beautiful and crazy before she talks nonsense? But the one who is talking nonsense is obviously her mother, okay? She wanted to quibble for herself, but when she saw her mother's warning eyes, she could only shut up unwillingly.

Leng Yue chuckled lightly and asked with interest on her face: "Oh! Yes, what does this have to do with you leaving your post without permission and coming here to ask for guilt with great fanfare? ”

This time Leng Yue was really interested, and Fu Ke's attitude at this time obviously saw that she would not blame the Fu family for the arrogant things. It's just that this sin of desertion is difficult to escape.

However, the old fox did not seem to be willing to bear the charge. Leng Yue was very curious, she wanted to see what excuse this old fox would use to prevaricate her now.

When Fu Ke heard Leng Yue ask like this, he looked sad and blamed himself, and even his voice began to choke up a little, "Your Majesty, it's all the minister's fault for this, it's the minister's daughter who has no way." Over the years, Ingot has been following the ministers to fight in the south and the north, seeing that they are in their twenties, and the ministers have no time to marry a husband for her, although she didn't say it, but she is extremely concerned in her heart. No, as soon as she heard that His Majesty was going to draft a draft this time, she secretly left the barracks and ran back by herself, saying that she wanted to choose a husband for herself from those eliminated show men. The minister was afraid that she would not know what to do and would cause a catastrophe, so he hurried to stop her. Fortunately, it was too late to let her get into a big disaster, but for her ridiculous behavior, the minister felt deeply guilty. Therefore, I had to pull her to ask His Majesty for her guilt. ”

Fu Ding's eyes widened, looking at her serious, emotional and nonsense mother in disbelief. It seems that all three views of her life have been ruined at this moment. Is this person in front of her still her righteous and awe-inspiring, majestic and righteous mother?

After Leng Yue heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and then she laughed out loud, laughed heartily, and laughed very indistinctly, as if she had heard a particularly funny joke. Laughing breathlessly.
