Chapter 231: Being smart is mistaken by being smart
Besides, on King Li's side, after promising Li Wenfeng that he would intercede for Lu Li in front of the emperor, he went straight to the emperor's imperial study.
The emperor, who was supposed to rest, couldn't sleep because he was in a depressed mood, and was still dealing with official business, and from time to time he would complain to his chamberlain Zhao Chang about a few topics related to the situation in the capital. ”
King Li bent down respectfully, and said with a respectful expression: "When the younger brother heard about General Lu, he specially came to the palace to inquire about the situation. ”
Another person who came to intercede for Lu Li!
The emperor's anger did not dissipate, because King Li's words became more and more intense: "One or two of you have come to speak for Lu Li, what benefits did he give you, and make you so desperate?" ”
Before, when Wang Zhen said that Lu Li might want to mess up the court by colluding with others, the emperor still had some doubts in his heart, but now there is no more at all.
There is Li Wenfeng in the front, and King Li in the back, this is ironclad evidence!
The emperor's anger was undisguised, and even if King Li was sluggish, he could see that the situation was not suitable.
But he was unwilling to change the topic, so he changed his mind and said to the emperor: "Brother Huang is angry, my brother came today to ask about the specific situation of General Lu's case, and he also wanted to appease Brother Huang Ming to investigate. Brother Huang, you think, General Lu just came back from the border pass not long ago, and he has made great achievements, if an important minister of the court like him can be arrested and convicted casually, the hearts of other soldiers will be cold. ”
There is some truth to what he said.
The Emperor's anger calmed down slightly, and he asked with doubt, "Then what do you think I should do?" ”
"General Lu's case must be tried carefully, in order to avoid villains from secretly working in it, the case should be transferred to the Criminal Department, instead of Wang Guard's unilateral trial." King Li raised his head and persuaded sincerely, "In addition to being convincing in this trial, General Lu's belonging can also be confirmed, and if he is guilty, he will be punished, and if he is not guilty, he will be released, only in this way can the people's hearts be calmed." ”
The emperor still remembered Lu Li's contribution to the country's conquest before, but now after King Li put forward a relatively pertinent suggestion, the emperor began to waver.
"Since the imperial brother proposed, I will leave this matter to you." The emperor paused, suddenly remembered something, turned his head and asked King Li, "How is your personal relationship with Lu Li?" ”
Although King Li usually has contacts with Lu Li, they are not close, and these are exactly the preparations for today's events.
"I've said a few words, but the relationship is not very close," King Li said nonsense with his eyes open, "Why did the imperial brother suddenly ask about this?" ”
"It's okay, I just remembered it suddenly." The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, saying that it was okay, but his heart was already drifting away.
King Li and Li Wenfeng, the two of them are also interceding for Lu Li, but the gap between the performances is too obvious, King Li is really for the country and the people, but Li Wenfeng is because of Lu Li's personal relationship with him, he showed, his firm trust in Lu Li made the emperor panic.
Li Wenfeng disappeared before, was it really just because of injury?
The more the emperor thought about it, the more he felt a chill in his back, and when he thought of it, he didn't dare to continue, and directly cut off the thoughts in his heart.
"By the way, do you know where Lu Li's family is?" After the emperor had an accident, the Lu family ran away, and once ordered Wang Zhen to watch them, but was told that the Lu family was not in the mansion.
Where did they go, it can't really run away, right?
"Mrs. Lu and her two children are in General Li's mansion at this time, and it is said that after the accident, General Li took them to the mansion as soon as possible."
It's Li Wenfeng again!
The anger in the emperor's heart suddenly rose again!
Li Wenfeng went against himself everywhere, helped Lu Li everywhere, and was embarrassed to say that he had no personal relationship with Lu Li?
He has to find a way to check Li Wenfeng!
The matter of Lu Li being imprisoned by the official messenger soon spread throughout the capital, and it reached Mo Siya's ears together, as well as the fact that Mo Simin was locked up by his father and was not allowed to go out, this is really good news, for several days, he was strictly guarded and not allowed to go out, and now he finally has the opportunity to go out!
Taking advantage of the fact that no one noticed her heartbeat, Mo Siya sneaked out onto the street, and the first thing she did after going out was to go to the restaurant to watch the excitement.
Mo Simin usually treats people arrogantly because she has shares in the restaurant, but now that the restaurant is about to close down, she has to go to see the situation and see how the other party can be majestic in the future!
Although Mo Simin can't go out easily now, it's not bad to have a reason to mock her!
Mo Siya thought gloating as she hurried to the restaurant.
What is different from what she imagined is that although the restaurant business is a little involved in Lu Li's affairs, the business is still there, An Xiabai is nowhere to be seen, and there are other people in charge of the restaurant's business, and it seems that it is still a long time away from going out of business.
This made Mo Siya feel frustrated.
I heard that there was a kind of herbal tea in the restaurant that tasted good, so Mo Siya sat down and ordered it to try.
The taste is really good, better than the herbal tea outside!
Hearing that this herbal tea also has the function of clearing heat and lowering the fire, Mo Siya's mind moved.
Now Mo Qiyan is angry about the fact that he framed Mo Simin before, if he shows an appearance of admitting his mistake and makes him tea himself, maybe he will be angry, and treat their mother and daughter the same as before!
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that the plan was feasible, so she sneaked into the back kitchen while the others in the restaurant were not paying attention.
I happened to bump into a guy head-on.
"Guest, why did you come to the back kitchen, you are not allowed to enter and exit at will here!" The little guy saw the living person and tried to drive Mo Siya out, but he didn't expect to be directly held by someone.
The young girl's soft hands made him feel addicted, and coupled with Mo Siya's deliberately thrown eyebrows, his bones were about to be crispy.
"I heard that the herbal tea in your restaurant tastes good, so I want to buy some and brew it at home, can you help me, little brother?"
In front of the beauty, the little girl tried to resist: "Girl, it's not that I don't want to sell it to you, it's mainly because our restaurant has a rule, generally don't sell tea outside, and don't tell outsiders the recipe of herbal tea, you see that it's not easy to live a small life, just let me go." ”
The temptation didn't work, and Mo Siya decided to take a different approach.
"Then I'll make you an offer." As soon as she spoke, it was Xiaowu's salary for two years, which finally shook his heart.
Recently, the business of the restaurant has been sluggish, and the number of customers is far less than before, I heard that the husband-in-law of the boss is also a big crime, and it is not certain that the restaurant can still be opened, so what about secretly selling the recipe and tea?
Anyway, it's not the first time he's colluded with outsiders!
The little servant nodded solemnly: "Guest, you go and wait in your own box for a while, and I will get some tea in the treasury and come later." ”
There's obviously a drama going on!
Mo Siya laughed so hard that her mouth almost closed: "I'll wait for you in the box, you hurry up." ”
After she obediently returned to her position, she didn't wait long to see Xiao Er sneakily running over, holding an Eastern Evil in her hand.
"What you're holding in your hand is tea, and what's added to it?" Mo Siya raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Yes," the little girl nodded and said, "I just took these tea leaves from the storehouse, and so is the tangerine peel, girl, after you bring them back, you can make herbal tea according to the method I told you." ”
Mo Siya smiled with crooked eyebrows, and after giving Yin Liang happily, she immediately returned to Mo's house with tea.
The embroidery lady hadn't seen anyone for a long time, and she was about to be anxious: "Where did you go to me today, why did you toss and go home now?" ”
"Mother, I'm going out today for something important!" She smiled and winked at Xiuniang, and then raised the tea bag in her hand, "This is the tea I took from the restaurant, and I bought the recipe from someone, saying that it is to make tea according to the recipe, and you can make herbal tea sold in the restaurant. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Xiuniang was puzzled, "Can a cup of herbal tea make people discouraged?" ”
Mo Siya didn't like to hear this, she finally spent a lot of money to buy the herbal tea from the restaurant, where is the ordinary herbal tea outside can be compared: "Mother, you do what I say, I won't harm you." ”
She said that to this part, the embroidery girl can't do it.
With doubts, she personally used the tea leaves that Mo Siya brought back to make tea, and then brought the tea to Mo Qiyan, who was working in the study.
Although it has been a while since Mo Simin was kidnapped and framed, Mo Qiyan's face was still not very good for their mother and daughter, and when he saw Xiu Niang entering the door with tea, he just asked coldly: "What are you doing here?" ”
The stark contrast made the embroidery girl sad, and she couldn't hold back her tears at once, and immediately turned red: "Today's weather is hot, thinking that this weather is easy to get angry, I made a pot of herbal tea and sent it to the master, to clear the heat and quench your thirst, and also to quench the fire by the way." ”
After all, it was someone he had really liked, and Mo Qiyan's expression eased slightly.
He asked the embroiderer to send the herbal tea over and took a sip in front of the embroiderer.
His face changed slightly.
Xiuniang couldn't see what he was thinking, and thought that Mo Siya's herbal tea was really useful, so the corners of her lips smiled a little: "How does this herbal tea taste?" ”
Mo Qiyan didn't answer and asked, "Where did you get this tea?" ”
Xiuniang felt that this was a good opportunity to save their mother and daughter's position in Mo Qiyan's heart, so she truthfully told Mo Siya about the tea she had sent, but Mo Qiyan's face became worse.
Others may not be able to drink it, but he has tasted tea for many years, how can he be wrong?
Isn't it fatal to take moldy tea leaves to make tea for people to drink?
With a bang, the teacup fell directly to the ground by him.
It was the first time for Xiuniang to see his angry appearance, and she was so frightened that she fell to her knees, and she didn't even dare to take a breath of air: "Master, why is this herbal tea ......?"
"Are you too embarrassed to ask?" Thinking of the last time Mo Siya harmed Mo Simin, he was furious, "I wanted to hurt Simin last time, but this time I hit my head again, you will go back and ask your own good daughter later, if I am poisoned to death, what good will it do to her!" ”
Without waiting for the embroidery girl to react, Mo Qiyan ordered Guan Mo Siya to be closed tightly, and as for the embroidery girl, she was also locked in.
