Chapter 671: Human
In the early morning, as usual, the people who got up early, officials, etc., hurried on the royal street one by one, and the vendors and shops began to open and welcome customers after a night of turmoil.
"There was a large-scale fighting in Guanquanfang last night, and there were countless casualties ......." In front of the shop early, the people who seemed to be spies were muttering quietly with their heads down.
"I heard that it is said that most of the small tooth spring after the letter of the king's mansion was stained red with blood." The other echoed in a low voice.
"It is said that tens of thousands of people poured into Guanquanfang last night, saying that until now, the Guanquanfang is still lying on the corpses that have not had time to be cleaned up, lying horizontally and vertically, and the smell of blood is so strong that people can't open their mouths."
"I'm afraid that the prefect of Lin'an Mansion will not be able to secure his seat this time, right? Such a big thing happened, and even the Xinwang Mansion, which had just been recalled to Lin'an, suffered, and this Xiao Governor's Mansion ...... It's really unlucky. ”
"It's not, but I just don't know, last night, who was it, how could he be so bold and dare to make trouble in Lin'an, as an imperial city, and there is a forbidden army guarding it, how could it be ...... How could this happen, last night, I was so scared that I didn't dare to go out, and I shrunk in the cabinet with my daughter-in-law, thinking that it was the golden man who came to commit it. "At the door of the third aunt's tavern, there are also some people talking about the fight last night.
"Lin'an City, this name is not auspicious, Lin'an Lin'an, temporary quiet, a few years ago, didn't there be a large-scale fight in Dawazi? It's only been a few years since the days of stability have intensified, I see...... Sooner or later, we'll have to keep running south. ”
The people of Lin'an City were talking about what happened last night, and the officials of the court in the morning were also whispering at the Donghua Gate: Why did the saint cancel the court meeting for no reason today?
"Could it be...... Because I ...... last night. An official stroked his chin and said meaningfully.
"This matter, you and my grade, it's better to pretend that you don't know anything." The other also whispered.
"I found that no, Xiao Zhen, the prefect of Lin'an, did not come, and the two adults of the left and right ministers did not come, and the six books were ...... came to the military department, Shangshu Liuzheng and left one of the adults, but he was summoned to the palace by the saint alone. ”
is different from the Lin'an tea shop and the streets, and these officials who can obviously go to court know a little bit about what happened last night, but at the moment, they are all secretive, tacitly exchanging everything they know, and then secretly thinking in their hearts how they should stand in line next.
For three consecutive days, the court meeting was interrupted for three days in succession, and the court's unmoving posture not only did not make the people panic, but on the contrary, some officials who knew more or less about the inside story began to become self-endangered, staring at ghosts all day long, fearing that suddenly people from the Imperial City Department and the Criminal Department would rush in and take him away without saying anything.
Ye Qing, who was half-lying on the bed, had a pale face and a weak expression, and his fingers subconsciously wrapped around a strand of Bai Chun's hair, and said, "Splash Li San, Lao Liu Tou, are they okay?" ”
"It's okay, Li Heng has some injuries, but fortunately, it's not too serious, Zuo Yu and his left foot are fine, and the guards of the Prince's Mansion are dead and ......injured." Bai Chun sat on the edge of the bed, looking tired, but still with a gentle smile, watching Ye Qing's fingers fiddling with his hair.
"It is said that the saint fainted after seeing Wang Huai that night, but is there such a thing?" Ye Qing took the trouble to wrap Bai Chun's hair around his fingers, until Bai Chun felt the pain of tugging, and then he patted Ye Qing's hand and motioned him to be lighter.
"Well, Guan Li secretly sent someone over the next day." Speaking of this, Bai Chun looked at the bright sunshine outside the window, and said with a long sigh of relief: "Song Qian is dead, it was Li Heng who personally cut off Song Qian's head, and the body is still in the Imperial City Bureau, Lin'an's umbrella...... There were also heavy losses, that night...... Too many people died. ”
"What about Shi Hao and Han Cheng?" Ye Qing ignored Bai Chun's topic about Song Qian, and changed the topic again and asked.
"Han Cheng entered the palace after Wang Huai, Shi Hao ...... Now there is no movement, the Emperor Taishang did not issue an order to summon him, the next morning, only the military department of the six Shangshu Liuzheng was summoned into the palace, and then in the afternoon, the other five Shangshu, Tongzhi Privy Council several people were also called into the palace. Bai Chun frowned, watching Ye Qing's hand that was originally fiddling with her hair, and gradually moved restlessly towards her chest, until the hand was about to climb up her chest, she slapped the hand away with disgust: "It's not honest to be so seriously injured." ”
"Who made you look so pretty." Ye Qingtian smiled shamelessly, then took Bai Chun's hand and held it in his palm and asked, "Why did you run to Lin'an without making a sound, and how did you know that Zhao Gou would set up an ambush again in the Fengbo Pavilion?" ”
Bai Chun let Ye Qing hold her hand, glanced at Ye Qing angrily, and then slowly turned over obediently, lay down in Ye Qing's arms, hugged Ye Qing's arm in his arms, and muttered: "That night in Yangzhou, I was restless and couldn't sleep, so I met Zhong Qing by the small lake, and learned from Zhong Qing's mouth that Song Qian knew about her existence, at first I suspected that it was Li Heng, but ...... Because I was afraid that you would trust Li Heng too much, I didn't tell you, so I secretly returned to Lin'an, hoping to find out the truth secretly ....... ”
Bai Chun hugged one of Ye Qing's arms tightly, and looked up at the direction of the window from time to time, and the two mulberry trees in the courtyard outside stood there quietly, the branches and leaves moving slightly in the wind, as if they were greeting her happily.
This is a comfortable time that has not been seen for a long time, although in the original time, the two of them could not snuggle up to each other as tightly as they do now, but even if they look at each other from afar, they have an indescribable steadfastness and satisfaction in their hearts, just like now, it is rare to be able to stick to each other's hearts.
"Li Heng is not accurate, and besides, you and I have paid attention to Zhao Gou, so we ignored Shi Hao's solicitation of Song Qian and Lin'an's umbrella...... Don't do it in the future. Ye Qing smelled the fragrance in Bai Chun's hair and said.
"So what are you going to do next? Emperor Taishang...... Obviously, he will not admit defeat so easily, and if he is coerced by us and does not fight back, he will inevitably make a comeback. Bai Chun wanted to get up, but he was still pressed down by Ye Qing on his chest, and a strange feeling came from his chest, making Bai Chun snort involuntarily, and for a while, the original "ward" became spring again.
"Wait and see, let's see what Shi Hao will do next." Ye Qing's tone involuntarily became a little colder, and the ambiguity that had just been condensed in the room was instantly diluted, which made Bai Chun in his arms breathe a sigh of relief, and he was afraid that this injured guy would think about bullying himself.
Ye Qing nodded silently in his arms, enjoying the rare tranquility, and after a while, he still asked uneasily: "It is obviously impossible for the Holy Lord to remain unconscious, and he has not been to the court for the past three days, and other officials have not been summoned to the palace, and the imperial court ...... What is the court trying to do? ”
"It's nothing more than the distribution of interests, Wang Huai is not a fuel-efficient lamp, I can make such a bold move on Huainan East Road, I can't do without Wang Huai's support, but in today's situation, how can I miss his shadow? Han Cheng was also not satisfied with forcing Shi Hao back that night, presumably he still wanted more court benefits. And Shi Hao never appeared in the palace...... Presumably, Zhao Gou is also watching now, seeing what the saint will do, and then make a decision. Ye Qing analyzed the situation in the court and said.
"Negotiations?" Bai Chun asked with some understanding, but some incomprehension.
"Yes, Wang Huai and Han Cheng want to control the court, seeing Shi Hao's fall, Wang Huai's position on the left is extremely stable for a while, naturally, Han Cheng must be bargaining in a roundabout way, such as the phase of the left is expensive and the right is light, can it be through the instructions of the saint, and finally slowly tilt the power to him as the right phase, and then over time, subtly, gradually form a situation of right respect and left subordination. How could Wang Huai not see this, so in the palace these days, it must be very chaotic, and I am afraid that chaos can make the saint have a headache. Ye Qing gently bit Bai Chun's ear and said.
"Nasty." Bai Chun snorted again, hurriedly got up from Ye Qing's arms, diverted someone's attention and asked, "Then it's not a way to keep being in such a stalemate, is it?" As he spoke, he subconsciously touched the position of his buttocks outside his shirt and skirt, and just now, he was ...... by that bad guy again.
"Yes, it is naturally not a way to stalemate all the time, the Emperor Taishang seems to have made up his mind to protect Shi Hao, the Duke of Wei, so he will definitely not reconcile from it, for today's plan, it depends on the will of the saint." Ye Qing closed his eyes to recuperate, or he was reminiscing about the moment when the sudden desire impulse just now disturbed the white beauty.
"Holy will, what do you say?" It wasn't Bai Chun's voice, but a female voice that sounded arrogant and sounded outside the door.
Bai Chun was taken aback, and hurriedly looked at the door, only to see that the crown princess was standing at the door of the outer room under the guidance of Liang Xing, Zuo Yu, and her left foot.
"Is it a gentleman's work to listen to other people's husbands and wives talking through the wall?" Ye Qing beckoned to Bai Chun and motioned for Bai Chun to help him up.
Without waiting for Ye Qing to let her in, Li Fengniang walked into the room proudly, looking at Bai Chun's graceful posture of leaning over to help Ye Qing sit up, she felt a little jealous in her heart, and instantly couldn't help but snort slightly: "This palace is a daughter, not a gentleman." ”
"Chen Yeqing has seen Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess." Ye Qing sat cross-legged on the bed, and Bai Chun on the side also stopped helping Ye Qing sort out his clothes while Ye Qing was talking, and saluted Li Fengniang.
"Just because you sit on the bed and bow to this palace, this palace can cure you of a great crime of disrespect." Li Fengniang snorted coldly again, and then sat down on the chair next to her.
"Then the minister will thank the princess for her magnanimity and not worrying about the rudeness of the minister." Ye Qing pulled the corners of his mouth and said with a smile.
Looking at Ye Qing, who was pale and weak, Li Fengniang didn't bother to argue with him, and after his eyes shifted to Bai Chun next to him, he couldn't help but sneer, and said with some jealousy that he couldn't even notice himself: "Why, this palace came to see you in person, isn't Lord Ye reluctant to let your wife send a cup of tea to this palace?" ”
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Princess, don't blame it, the folk girl will go." Bai Chun was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly apologized.
But before she took two steps, she was suddenly stopped by Li Fengniang, and then looked at Bai Chun, who was a little unclear, Li Fengniang slowly got up, walked up to Bai Chun and said: "I don't know where Mrs. Ye got the blessings, in such a situation, she can still be as deeply favored as your husband, even I, the crown princess, are a little puzzled." ”
Looking at Bai Chun, who didn't know why, he glanced at the minister who was sitting on the bed, and suddenly felt a little bored and said: "The injury of Ye Qing, who is visiting you in this palace, is true, and it is also true that I came to pass on the decree." ”
"Preaching? Whose will, the Emperor or the Holy One? Ye Qing was stunned and asked.
Li Fengniang glanced at Ye Qing, then turned to Bai Chun again, and said in a slightly softened voice: "In the future, you don't have to call yourself a people's daughter, the will of the Emperor and the Queen Mother, Ye Qing is now an important member of the three grades of the Great Song Dynasty, and you, as the wife of the minister of the Great Song Dynasty, should also have a fate: read that you are a pure housekeeper, and Ye Qing has made great contributions to the Great Song Dynasty, so I gave you the title of Bai Chun Sanpin, and made a three-grade order." ”
As Li Fengniang's words were finished, before Bai Chun could thank him, he heard Lord Ye, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, ask, "That...... Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess, can you explain a little bit, whose will is this? ”
"Idiot!" Li Fengniang turned her head, looked at Ye Qing, who was happier than he was given, and couldn't help but roll her eyes and scold.
There are two kinds of women, internal and external, and the internal women naturally refer to Li Fengniang, and the external women naturally refer to the wives and mothers of officials in the court who were given the title by the imperial court.
So at this delicate moment, Zhao Gou and the Empress Dowager suddenly jointly issued a decree to give a small folk girl as the third grade, which not only surprised Bai Chun, but also Ye Qing, obviously did not expect that Zhao Gou would suddenly show favor to him at this time.
Glancing at Bai Chun, there was still a tacit understanding between husband and wife for many years, Bai Chun nodded silently, took the will he had just received from Li Fengniang, and left after saluting.
After only Ye Qing and Li Fengniang were left in the room, Ye Qing had not spoken, and Li Fengniang said with jealousy: "The tacit understanding between husband and wife is really not comparable to dewy mandarin ducks like you and me, Ye Qing, are you deliberately letting this palace see your love and tacit understanding?" ”
"If you had a normal mind, you would know that I was here to give you a chance to be alone." Ye Qing's head was big for a while, this girl's sarcastic ability is really powerful, no wonder the prince was able to be driven crazy by him.
"Let me ask you, what is the relationship between you and the Emperor? That night, what happened, in the storm pavilion of Dali Temple, what did you talk to him? Why all of a sudden, he's so nice to you? I actually asked this palace to give you that cheap ....... ”
"You dare to say the next word, Li Fengniang, believe it or not, I Ye Qing made you never be the queen of the Great Song Dynasty!" Ye Qing, who was sitting on the bed, grabbed Li Fengniang's chest and pulled it hard.
Li Fengniang obviously didn't expect Ye Qing to care so much about Bai Chun, let alone that Ye Qing would move roughly, and the soles of her feet were unstable, so with Ye Qing's arm exerting force, she suddenly knelt down in front of the window.
"You...... I...... Ye Qing, is it true that I, Li Fengniang, am nothing in your heart? For the sake of your wife, can you practice me Li Fengniang like this? Li Fengniang, who was kneeling in front of the bed, didn't plan to get up at all, and raised the originally charming cheek, but at the moment it was a little sad and asked.
Ye Qing, who was still holding Li Fengniang's chest, quietly looked at the angry cheeks, sat on the bed several times, and wanted to pull Li Fengniang up, but the dead woman was as strong as a donkey, and she didn't want to get up anything!
You have to wait for Bai Chun to come in for a while, and let Bai Chun see with his own eyes how your husband treats the crown princess of the dignified Song Dynasty!
