085 captivity
Liu Quanzhong closed his eyes and sniffed deeply at the fragrance that spread in the air. The coldness in his eyebrows gradually opened, and a light smile slowly bloomed on his bright red lips.
Jun Qinglan only glanced at him and buried her head deeply. Don't think that the person's smile is because he is in a good mood, the legendary time when Liu Quanzhong laughs the most is the happiest time to kill. She didn't want to fall victim to his big smile.
So, Jun Qinglan fell to his knees with a puff: "I am honored to be a member of the factory, and I will definitely do my best for the factory." ”
I used to hear people say this when I was in the Suppression Division, why did others say it so smoothly and so naturally, but when she was asked to say it, she was so awkward?
"Huh." Liu Quanzhong smiled lightly: "How can you do your best for this seat?" You and I are both people of Northern Xia, so naturally only the emperor should be loyal. ”
"The factory teaches you a lesson."
Liu Quanzhong pursed his lips, put his clothes on the main seat and took a seat, staring at Jun Qinglan with half-squinted eyes: "I like the thing you sent by Liu Chengfeng very much." I'm curious, what's the name of that thing, and where did you get it? The monkey cubs from the Imperial Pharmacy gathered to identify them, but none of them could see why. ”
Jun Qinglan smiled slightly: "The one that is as clear as water is the rose dew, and the one that is light brown and thicker is the rose brine." The techniques and craftsmanship of their production are very simple, and only the materials are rare. It is a kind of exotic flower of the Western Regions, called rose. ”
"Rose?" Liu Quanzhong groaned and said: "I have heard of such a strange flower in Yanjing City, but I have never seen it. That flower is only planted in Dingguo Gongzhong. ”
"The factory is well-read, and the humble position is the flowers that I asked for from the Dingguo Mansion."
"Oh?" Liu Quanzhong's eyes froze: "How did you think of giving such a gift to this seat?" ”
"I was fortunate enough to meet the factory boss last month." Jun Qinglan thought for a while and said, "At that time, I saw that my father-in-law was sweating non-stop, and he seemed to be a little lacking in breath when he spoke. Although it was June and the heat was unbearable, the symptoms of the factory were still slightly severe. In addition, the factory father occasionally had a low cough when he spoke, but there was no phlegm. Therefore, there is a bold speculation about the lowly position. ”
Jun Qinglan raised her head and looked at Liu Quanzhong: "I thought that the factory should have passed the summer, but it was not very serious. So there was only a slight loss of appetite and mental fatigue. A dry cough without phlegm means that your liver is stagnate and cannot be vented. Therefore, he boldly asked Jiang Xiaoye for roses and made those two things. Roses can soothe the liver and relieve depression, which is the most symptomatic of the factory. The rose dew can beautify and nourish the skin, make the skin white and delicate, and the face will last forever. Therefore, he dared to give these two strange things to the factory, hoping that they could share the worries of the factory. ”
"Huh." Liu Quanzhong hooked his lips and smiled: "I can't see that your kid can have such a delicate mind." It's a pity that it's a man's body, if it's a woman, this seat will definitely send you, a beauty with a delicate heart, to the emperor's side, to ensure your glory and wealth. ”
Jun Qinglan didn't think that Liu Quanzhong was complimenting her with this. When I heard this, I felt a cold sweat all over my body. If she is a woman? She was meant to be a woman!
Liu Quanzhong said suddenly...... It can't be that there is a clue to it, right? That's bad!
"It's a pity." Liu Quanzhong smacked his lips and said, "You are a man." ”
"It is precisely because he is a man that he can better share the worries of the emperor and the factory and be loyal to the country!"
Although Liu Quanzhong was relieved, Jun Qinglan did not dare to relax at all. She can't judge the truth or falsehood of Liu Quanzhong's words, and if she relaxes, she will die. When necessary, it is necessary to pat yourself on the back and show loyalty.
"It takes at least a month to make good rose dew and rose brine and it only takes one day and night to give it to the factory. Just because he wanted to solve problems for adults as soon as possible, he used some extraordinary means to shorten the production cycle. Although there are some effects, the effect will be much worse than the normal production process. When the humble job is free, go back and make a batch again, and then send it to the factory to enjoy. ”
"Yes." Liu Quanzhong nodded: "It's difficult for you to be sensible and smart, this seat will give you a chance." Tell me, you sent these rare objects here, what do you want to ask for? ”
"Humble position." Jun Qinglan took a breath and said, "I hope that the factory will allow the lowly to interfere in the case of Puning Temple." ”
"I heard that you have a great friendship with Duan Wangye. It seems that this is true. Liu Quanzhong said with a smile, and he couldn't tell whether he agreed or not.
"There is still a clear distinction between favor and lawsuit." Jun Qinglan said solemnly: "Before and after the Puning Temple case, the lowly position was at the scene. From the first day he entered Jinyiwei, he swore that he would not let any wrong case happen in front of him. Now, the lowly office also has some experience in this case, and the lowly office thinks that the Duanwang Mansion should have suffered an injustice, and there is another hidden truth in this case. Therefore, the lowly does not want to see innocent people unjustly imprisoned. However, the lowly position is still in the period of recuperation, and it is not normal to have access to any cases. ”
"So." She solemnly bowed to Liu Quanzhong and said, "I ask the factory to allow the lowly to investigate the case." In order to reveal the truth to the world as soon as possible. ”
Liu Quanzhong narrowed his eyes: "I can't believe your words." Do you dare to say that you are not here to be the king? ”
Jun Qinglan pursed her lips: "Duan Wang Ye and his humble position are all the people of Northern Xia. I believe that if Northern Xia is strong, we can be healthy. Of course, this act of humility is for the reputation of our Northern Xia, and of course, finding out the truth can also save Duanwangfu from unwarranted disasters. Why not? ”
"Jun Qinglan, you really don't understand why King Duan is still under house arrest in the palace now?"
Liu Quanzhong's voice suddenly became a little cold. Jun Qinglan took a breath and closed his mouth. Li Congyao has never been out of the palace since the day before yesterday, and it is rumored that he was left in the imperial study by the emperor to discuss matters, but Liu Quanzhong bluntly said that he was under house arrest. What he said could no longer have been false. Li Congyao's situation is worrying.
Jun Qinglan could vaguely feel that the emperor didn't seem to like Duanwangfu very much, but he was barely able to maintain the peace on the surface. He is now putting Li Congyao under house arrest in the palace, but because there is no conclusive evidence in the Puning Temple case. Otherwise, house arrest would have become captivity long ago.
Your Majesty, do you want to use this case to hit Duanwangfu hard? Wrong!
Jun Qinglan looked at Liu Quanzhong, and the person's eyelids were drawn with a deep eyeliner with a good snail dai, and it seemed that a pair of eyes were deeper than the dark night. It is like a dark whirlpool, and there is no bottom in sight.
Liu Quanzhong is not a master who is willing to talk to others. He said so much to himself, did he want to tell her that the emperor was going to make a move against the Duanwang Mansion?
Therefore, no matter whether this case can involve Duanwangfu or not, must the emperor let it involve Duanwangfu?!
imprisoned Li Congyao just to guide the people's public opinion. Isn't it time to get to the point where the imperial history platform is written, the hundred officials ask for orders, and the Duanwang Mansion is severely punished!
"You are a wise man, and you will understand what this seat means." Liu Quanzhong casually took a handful of human skin pipa beside him, and plucked the pipa strings with his long well-trimmed nails.
There was a clanging sound in the air, as if someone was holding a sharp nail and nailing it into Jun Qinglan's ear, which made her shiver.
"Tsk." Liu Quanzhong pursed his lips and threw away the pipa in his arms. He said in disgust: "The strings are loose, it's really ugly." These monkey cubs, while this seat is not there, do not carefully adjust the baby of this seat, it is really impatient! ”
Jun Qinglan held her breath, for fear that she would accidentally make this demon king unhappy and give up her efforts.
"Although this seat is in charge of the East Factory, he is actually just a member of the inner court, and he did not participate in court politics in the past. This case was ordered by the emperor to be investigated by this seat, what do you think is the reason? ”
Liu Quanzhong's voice was slow and melodious, and although the strings of the pipa were loose, he still found the rhythm in it. The rhythm of this speech is in harmony with the rhythm of Fang Cai, and it sounds soft and soft. Jun Qinglan didn't dare to let herself be confused by his voice.
If you slack off on him, the end will be very miserable.
"The emperor's intentions are not understood." Jun Qinglan said with a blue chin and did not raise his eyes to look at Liu Quanzhong.
She said that she didn't understand, but where could she not understand?
At the beginning of the founding of the country, Emperor Shengzu relied very heavily on eunuchs, and the eunuchs at that time had the right to kill and kill in the court. After Gaozu moved the capital to Yanjing, for some reason, he greatly weakened the power in the hands of the eunuchs, and issued an edict that the eunuchs should not interfere in politics. Over the years, the eunuchs have done nothing in the struggle for power and power. Liu Quanzhong is an outlier.
No one knows what means he used to help the current saint get out of the North Palace and seize the throne, and since then he has been on the rise. Dongchang has completely become a lingering shadow in the hearts of hundreds of officials in Yanjing City. However, he doesn't actually come into contact with people very often. Even the people in the brocade guard rarely see him in person. It is said that when he was old, he began to indulge in the way of cultivating immortals, focusing on self-cultivation.
Jun Qinglan doesn't know if the rumors are true, but it is undeniable that Liu Quanzhong is a smart person. He is not like others who are in power and lose themselves and end up in danger. He was able to decisively stop when he was at the height of his power, and willingly retreated into the background. Such a person can live a long and comfortable life, and it is even more fearful.
Since he semi-retired, Taishi Yan Lu's power has been rising day by day. In contrast, the Confucian forces led by Zhang Hanju, the national abbot. Yan Lu is the Taishi Taifu and is in charge of the cabinet, and almost the entire six departments are under his control. Zhang Hanju was born in the Zhong Ding family of the Shili heirloom, and was ordered to establish the Northern Xia Academy after the founding of the Holy Ancestor Emperor to cultivate and select talents for the Northern Xia. After several years of operation, more than half of the officials in the Northern Xia Dynasty have studied in the National Academy.
The Zhang family has a very high reputation among students, and Guozijian, Yushitai, Hanlin Academy and Dali Temple are all friendly with Zhang Hanju because of this relationship. Especially in the year before last, after Zhang Hanju's eldest daughter was elected to the palace, the Zhang family's power was in the limelight for a while.
In the struggle between Zhang Hanju and Yan Lu, only Dongchang and Duanwangfu did not have anything to do with either party. Liu Quanzhong is in charge of the East Factory, so naturally no one dares to make up his mind. Duanwangfu is different.
Although the Duanwang Mansion has been in decline since eight years ago, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse. If he can obtain Li Congyao's support, with his prestige among the border generals, he will undoubtedly be like a tiger with wings.
Now that the case of Puning Temple is quite unfavorable to Duanwangfu, Yan Lu and Zhang Hanju are afraid that they have both moved their minds. However, the emperor must not allow the power of Duanwangfu to belong to any of them. Therefore, the most suitable person in the world to investigate the Puning Temple case is only Liu Quanzhong, who seems to have lost interest in power!
