"He's your own nephew, can you really bear to watch other people's heads fall to the ground, and watch the eldest brother send a white-haired person to a black-haired person?"

Empress Dowager Wan said angrily: "You should ask Delin about this!" How has the mourning family educated him over the years, but he is good, he actually caused such a big incident, and he is afraid now, is it too late? ”

Wan Hou Ye couldn't raise his head when he was reprimanded by her, and it took a long time before he whispered: "But the minister only has this one son, if he dies, the minister's vein will be broken!" The Queen Mother thinks twice! ”

Wan Hou also had a lot of wives and concubines, and gave birth to a total of five sons and four daughters, but the rest of the four sons didn't know what was going on, and not long after they were born, they all died, leaving only Wan Delin alone.

Empress Dowager Wan looked at Wan Hou Ye, who was kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, she couldn't bear it, and hurriedly said to Ruoqiu: "Go and help Hou Ye up!" ”

Ruoqiu understood, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Wan Hou Ye up, "Hou Ye, everything is easy to discuss, you get up first!" ”

Wan Hou Ye refused Ruoqiu's support and said: "If the Queen Mother doesn't save Delin, I won't get up!" ”

"Don't worry, Master Hou, Wan Shilang will be fine!"

Hearing Ruoqiu's words, Wan Houye's eyes flashed, "Is this true?" ”

Ruoqiu nodded, and said to the Empress Dowager Wan, who was twisting the Buddha beads: "How dare the slave and maid deceive the prince for this kind of thing!" The Queen Mother has already thought of a way to save the waiter! ”

Empress Dowager Wan pointed her fingers and said slowly: "Although most of the people in the court are our people, not all of them. Otherwise, there would not have been a matter of Jia Fa's impeachment of Delin. ”

Wan Hou Ye gritted his teeth fiercely, "It's all this old horseman, I will never let him go!" ”

"Yes, this matter can only be handed over to the three divisions to deal with, and the mourning family and the emperor have no way to intervene, otherwise they will be tongue-stricken. If the third division really sentenced Delin to death, then he could only be secretly saved! ”

Wan Hou Ye was puzzled and said: "Please make it clear to the Queen Mother!" ”

"Why Liu Jin was convicted, the eldest brother knows. The mourning family had already agreed with the emperor yesterday that if the third division really convicted Delin of capital crime, then Li Dai Tao stiffened. ”

"So, Delin has to change his name and go away?"

"There's no way around it, it's better than losing your life! After a few years, the wind is not so tight, and you can still go to see him occasionally! ”

Wan Hou Ye sighed, "That's all it can be!" ”

After the Marquis Wan left, a palace maid walked in and said to the Empress Dowager Wan who closed her eyes and recuperated: "The Empress Dowager, the Lord of Evergreen is here!" ”

Empress Dowager Wan opened her eyes, frowned slightly, and said, "What is she here for?" ”

Ruoqiu on the side said: "I think it must be for Wan Shilang's business!" It's better to let the slave go back to the county lord and let her come back another day! ”

Empress Dowager Wan shook her head and said, "No need, let her in!" ”

After her words fell, Shi Fenglan walked in, and after she bowed to the Empress Dowager Wan, she sat on the chair brought by the eunuch.

Empress Dowager Wan looked at her and said, "I haven't entered the palace for so many days, and the mourning family thinks you have forgotten the mourning family!" ”

Shi Fenglan smiled lightly: "Aunt said that she was joking, how could Fenglan forget her aunt!" It's just that a few days ago, I occasionally felt a cold, and I was afraid of infecting my aunt, so I didn't come! ”

Empress Dowager Wan stroked her fair cheeks and said, "You are the juniors most valued by the mourning family, you must know how to take care of yourself!" It's not too young, one or two are like this, you are like this, and Delin is like this! ”

After hearing this, Shi Fenglan said softly: "Auntie, what will happen to Cousin Delin?" My mother was very worried when she heard about this yesterday! ”

"The emperor has already handed over this matter to the third division, and the mourning family doesn't know!"

"Isn't it possible for my aunt to pardon my cousin?"

Empress Dowager Wan sighed lightly and said, "Why don't you want to do it, but Delin was too wrong this time, and he was also taken by someone, and there is no way for the mourning family to pardon him!" As she spoke, she clasped her hands together, "Buddha bless!" Feng Lan, you have to be more restrained in your actions outside these days, you can't be the same as before, understand? lest you be like Delin, if you are caught, you will be in trouble! ”

After Shi Fenglan responded, she bit her lower lip and said, "It's not been peaceful in Kaifeng City recently!" First the kings were assassinated, then it was discovered that King Xin was in collusion with the kingdom of Heshe, and then there was the matter of Cousin Delin, as if he had been cursed! ”

How could Empress Dowager Wan not understand her little thoughts, she said: "Okay, just say what you want to say, don't go around the corner!" ”

Shi Fenglan glanced at the Empress Dowager Wan and whispered: "These things only happened after Ye Xuemei came to Kaifeng City, she is an ominous person!" ”

Empress Dowager Wan frowned slightly and looked at her, "Then what do you want?" ”

"Feng Lan heard that Xia Guo sent an envoy over?"

"You're well-informed!" Empress Dowager Wan glanced at the drizzle outside that she didn't know when, and said, "Yes, last night, Xia Guo sent a messenger, saying that he wanted to take Ye Xuemei back!" ”

This sentence made Shi Fenglan's eyes light up, "Auntie, that Ye Xuemei was originally a talented person of Emperor Moxuan of the Xia Kingdom, and there is nothing wrong with letting her be taken back!" ”

Empress Dowager Wan lowered her eyes to the ground and said, "Should she be taken back or do you want her to be taken back?" ”

Shi Fenglan's heart trembled, and said, "Auntie, we are talking about Ye Xuemei, why did you bring the topic to me again!" ”

Empress Dowager Wan sighed and said, "How can you hide your little care!" Feng Lan, you have always been smart and clever, why do you want to be confused in this matter? The twisted melon is not sweet, even if there is no Ye Xuemei, he will not like you. As long as you are willing, the mourning family can also point you to a better husband! ”

Shi Fenglan said: "In my aunt's eyes, there is a better person than Brother Yuzhi, but in my eyes, he is the best person in the world!" ”

Ruoqiu on the side also followed: "County Lord, please forgive the slave and maid for being blunt, King Ning often has a straight face and does not smile, I really can't see what is good!" ”

A smile appeared on Shi Fenglan's face, and she said, "Maybe this is the so-called flower into each eye!" ”

"The gloomy wooden language you sent last time stopped him and he sent it back later, and I heard people say that you quarreled, and he said that you will not be allowed to step into the palace half a step in the future!"

Shi Fenglan hurriedly said: "Where is this the case, in fact, the two of us have argued a few words together, and it is not a quarrel." Who would have thought that they were all passed down like this by their descendants! ”

Empress Dowager Wan pitied her in the end, and did not expose her lies. Shi Fenglan hurriedly diverted the topic, "Auntie, can Your Majesty agree to the request of the envoy of the Xia Kingdom?" ”

"Ye Xuemei was saved by Yu Zhi desperately, Your Majesty naturally has to ask Yu Zhi before he can make a decision!"

Shi Fenglan became anxious when she heard this, "Auntie, Brother Yuzhi was not lightly confused by that woman, he definitely won't agree." ”

Empress Dowager Wan stretched out her hand and stroked her skirt, "That's also a helpless thing!" ”

"That woman is an ominous person, if she stays in the Song Kingdom, she will only bring endless disasters to the Song Kingdom!"

"Shut up!" When Empress Dowager Wan heard this, she was furious, "Feng Lan, although the mourning family cherishes you, you must not forget your identity, this is a political matter of the previous dynasty, and it is not your turn to interfere!" ”

Shi Fenglan was also very scared after seeing Empress Dowager Wan angry, but she couldn't help but whisper: "But ......"

Ruoqiu on the side was afraid that she would annoy the Queen Mother, so she hurriedly said: "County Lord, many times, the Queen Mother also has a lot of helpless things. Besides, the envoy of the Xia Kingdom will have to wait for a few days before leaving, so why should you rush at this time! ”

Shi Fenglan reluctantly agreed, she actually didn't know that no matter how she asked, Empress Dowager Wan would not send Ye Xuemei back to Xia Kingdom. Many times, family affection is as weak as paper!

She glanced at the Empress Dowager Wan, who had a cold face, and then said: "Feng Lan said vain for a while, and I hope that my aunt will forgive her sins!" ”

"It's good to know that it's wrong, the mourning family is tired, you kneel down!"

Shi Fenglan had no choice but to come out of Ningshou Palace, and as soon as she walked out of the palace gate, the maid standing aside immediately put an umbrella on her. She looked at the droplets of water that flowed down the edge of the umbrella and thought about the reprimand she had just received, and she couldn't help but cry.

Seeing this, the maid hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the county lord?" ”

"It's fine!" Shi Fenglan wiped her tears, and happened to see Xiao Shunzi talking to a man in a lake blue shirt at the gate of the palace.

The man said, "Father-in-law, doesn't Your Majesty still have time to see me?" ”

Xiao Shunzi replied with a light smile: "Your Majesty has a lot of opportunities, I really don't have time to see the messenger, I hope you will forgive me!" ”

The messenger said eagerly: "I know that Your Majesty is busy with state affairs, but the things that Your Majesty has asked for are not complicated, as long as Your Majesty makes a will!" ”

"Our family understands the envoy's feelings, but Your Majesty really doesn't have time at this time, and I hope the envoy will forgive me! The envoy is also the first time to come to Kaifeng City, so it is better to take this opportunity to take a good stroll and relieve your mood! ”

Seeing Xiao Shunzi's resolute attitude, the envoy had to sigh and leave. Xiao Shunzi turned around, turned around and saw Shi Fenglan, and hurriedly walked over to salute, "Meet the county lord!" ”

Shi Fenglan responded, looked at the departing back, and said, "He is the messenger sent to pick up Ye Xuemei?" ”

Xiao Shunzi replied: "Isn't it? It's not the right time for him to come, just in time for an accident with ten thousand adults, where does Your Majesty have the mood to pay attention to him? Let the minions come and send him away! ”

Shi Fenglan's eyes flashed, and she asked, "Then Your Majesty has ever seen him?" How so? ”

Xiao Shunzi replied: "I met in a hurry yesterday, and I didn't say anything. Your Majesty has not been interested in this matter recently, so the minions don't know either! County lord, Your Majesty still has the servants waiting there, and he retired first! ”

Looking at the back of Xiao Shunzi leaving, Shi Fenglan muttered for a while, "Dead eunuch, your mouth is really tight!" ”

A small vermilion sedan chair stopped in front of the palace gate, and after seeing Shi Fenglan come out, she immediately opened the sedan curtain and waited for her to go up. Shi Fenglan stood in front of the sedan chair and did not go up immediately, but looked at the figure in front of her thoughtfully. After a while, she got into the sedan chair and said to the sedan chair man: "Follow the person in front!" ”

After the palanquin driver responded, he wore a hat on his head and carried the sedan chair in his cloak to follow the person in front. The man was just walking, not noticing that someone was following him.

Because of the rain, there were few pedestrians on the road, and the messenger suddenly heard a piano sound, and although he did not understand the rhythm, he also heard that the tune was "Qingping Tune".

When the messenger heard this, he could not help sighing, and at the end of the song he lamented, and turned to leave, but was pulled by a man by the sleeve.

It was a woman, and the woman said to the messenger, "Lord Wang, my girl invites Lord Wang into the house!" ”

"Who is your girl?"

Rong Xiang smiled and said, "Lord Wang really doesn't know me?" ”

The messenger kept thinking about this girl who looked a little familiar in his mind, and after thinking for a long time, he finally remembered, and then he said, "It is you!" "So, isn't her girl Ye Xuemei?

When she entered the house, Ye Xuemei was sitting behind a seven-stringed guqin, and after the messenger saw her, he bowed to her, "The minister has seen Ye Cairen!" ”

Ye Cairen, once this identity made her not embarrassed or embarrassed, but later because of this identity, she reminded her of the tragedy of the whole family. For her, she really doesn't like this title.

She smiled lightly and said to the envoy: "Lord Wang doesn't need to call me that anymore, I am no longer a talented person in the Xia Kingdom!" ”

The envoy heard the resistance in her words, and knew that she was now inseparable from the Xia Kingdom, so how could she use this title, and after sighing silently in his heart, he said, "The minister has seen Miss Ye!" ”

After motioning for the envoy to sit down, Ye Xuemei looked at him and smiled lightly: "I really can't imagine that I will be able to see Lord Wang again in my lifetime!" ”

The messenger was also emotional, "I didn't expect that after four years, I would still be able to hear Miss Ye's "Qingping Tune"! ”

Fingers brushed over the strings, and a piano sounded, "Lord Wang still remembers?" ”

"Miss Ye used the song "Qingping Tune" to save the minister and the minister's family, how could the minister forget?"

At that time, Wang Yanliang was the prince's person, and he was implicated and imprisoned because of the prince's affairs. Murong Yu took a fancy to his talent and wanted to pull him into his command, but he insisted on not complying, and after Murong Yu persuaded him several times to no avail, he wanted to kill him.

Later, Ye Xuemei entered the prison and played a song "Qingping Tune" to persuade Wang Yanliang to submit to Murong Yu, and after a long talk, he finally changed his mind.

His words made Rong Xiang quite sad, "It's a pity that not all people know how to repay their kindness!" ”

Wang Yanliang knew that she was talking about Murong Yu, so he sighed, "Nine times out of ten, life is unsatisfactory!" ”

Ye Xuemei's fingertips crossed a slender and hard string, and said: "Everyone in the world is chasing the peaceful and prosperous world, but they don't know that this peaceful and prosperous era is formed in the accumulation of many white bones. ”

Wang Yanliang knew that she remembered that Murong Yu had slaughtered her entire family, so he persuaded: "Please also ask Miss Ye to mourn that matter!" ”

"Murong Yu is here this time to let you bring me back to the Xia Kingdom, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty ordered the ministers to bring the girl back anyway, otherwise ......" He couldn't go on with the rest of the words. The corners of Ye Xuemei's mouth raised a hint of sneer, "Otherwise, you will try to put me to death, right?" She said this, brought a pot of tea, and poured the tea for Wang Yanliang, "Although his idea is good, he doesn't know that not everyone is as unkind as him!" ”

Wang Yanliang said with a straight face: "The grace of a drop of water must be reciprocated by a spring, and the minister has received the favor of the girl, and he will definitely not do such a thing!" At the beginning, His Majesty did too much about the affairs of the girl's family, and the minister did not know at that time, and missed the best period of persuasion, otherwise he would have to persuade him! ”

Ye Xuemei said: "Thanks to the fact that the Lord did not advise, otherwise Murong Yu would have known that your heart is for me, where would he send you to the Song Kingdom?" ”

At this time, Rong Xiang interjected: "Did Your Majesty say anything when Lord Wang entered the palace yesterday?" ”

Wang Yanliang replied: "I met in a hurry last night, and Your Majesty only read the national letter I brought, and didn't say much else. He refuses to see me today, thinking that he is unwilling to let the girl go back to the Xia Kingdom! ”

After hearing this, Rong Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good!" Otherwise, if she returns to Xia Kingdom, where will the girl still have a way to live? ”

Wang Yanliang gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, if it really comes to that time, I will also release the girl halfway, so as to repay the kindness of the girl who saved me that day!" ”

Ye Xuemei smiled slightly, "When it won't come that far!" ”

Wang Yanliang also breathed a sigh of relief at the moment, "That's the best, with Your Majesty protecting the girl, the minister will be relieved." ”

Ye Xuemei didn't correct his words, but said, "I invited Lord Wang to come this time to ask Lord Wang to do me a favor!" ”

"Girl, please speak!"

"If Your Majesty refuses Murong Yu's request at that time, I hope your lord can say a word to him! Let's just say that Murong Yu said it. ”

Wang Yanliang knew that she was asking him to falsely pass on the holy decree, so he said, "Okay, what are you talking about?" ”

"Just say I'm not allowed to marry anyone!" When she saw Wang Yanliang's surprised gaze, she continued: "You know that the affairs of Xia Guo make me sad, and I categorically do not want to marry anyone again. Your Majesty and the Queen Mother kindly want to point out another marriage for me, but I can't refuse, so I can only ask for help! ”

Wang Yanliang nodded, "Don't worry, girl, leave this matter to the minister!" As he spoke, he said meaningfully: "The past has been investigated, and the girl is asked to forget it from now on!" It doesn't do any good to keep it in mind! ”

Ye Xuemei knew that he wanted to let go of the hatred of his entire clan being destroyed, but how could such hatred be forgotten? Long ago when she left the Xia Kingdom, she had already sworn that she would also let Murong Yu taste the ruins of her family.

After sending Wang Yanliang away, Rong Xiang excitedly returned to Ye Xuemei's side and said, "Girl, it's really good, the slave thought it would take a lot of speech this time!" ”

Ye Xuemei smiled faintly and said, "If I don't know what Wang Yanliang is like, how can I come?" ”

Rong Xiang said with a smile: "This Emperor Xia just chose Lord Wang as an envoy, and it can really be regarded as a good thing!" ”

Ye Xuemei was about to speak, when she heard a voice from the next room, "You are presumptuous, so bold." I know you, you're the guard next to Brother Yuzhi! ”

After a while, I saw the prisoner knife twisting a person's arm and walking in, this person was Shi Fenglan.

The prison knife pressed her dead and said, "She came after the envoy of the Xia Kingdom, she heard what you just said, do you want to kill her?" ”

Shi Fenglan was stunned all of a sudden, she didn't expect that the prison knife would actually make such a suggestion, she kept struggling, "Let go of me, if you dare to kill me, my father, mother, and aunt will not let you go!" By this time, she had also understood that the prison knife was no ordinary guard.

"Let her go!" Her words made Prison Dao's brows frown slightly, but she still let go of Shi Fenglan.

As soon as Shi Fenglan let go, she immediately leaned against the wall in horror and looked at Ye Xuemei.

Seeing her like this, Ye Xuemei smiled slightly and said, "I haven't seen the county lord for a long time, you might as well sit down and drink tea." ”

Where does Shi Fenglan have the heart to drink tea now, she looked at Ye Xuemei and said, "What do you want?" ”

"I should have asked the county lord for this sentence! Why did the county lord follow the envoy of the Xia Kingdom? ”

Shi Fenglan turned her face away and said, "Who said I was going to follow him?" I just happened to meet it. ”

Rong Xiang heard what she said, and said, "That's right! I happened to walk the same road, I happened to enter the same teahouse, and I happened to sit in the room next to him. County Lord, what a coincidence! ”

Shi Fenglan's face was red and white for a while, "What about you?" Not to mention that it's a coincidence! ”

Ye Xuemei took a sip of tea with a light smile and said, "Of course not, I know that this is the only road leading from the palace to the post house, so I specially waited for him here!" ”

Seeing her admit, Shi Fenglan's face became more and more cold, "You dare to join forces with the envoys of the Xia Kingdom to deceive Your Majesty and the Queen Mother!" It's a pity that there are no impermeable walls in the world! ”

Ye Xuemei looked at her and smiled indifferently, "What, is the county lord going to denounce me?" ”

Shi Fenglan sneered: "What? Do you want me to keep your secret? ”

"That's not it, it's just that if the county lord goes to denounce me, then it will be the prince who suffers!"

"Brother Yuzhi? How so? ”

"I was rescued by the prince, if the county lord goes to denounce me, then the prince will naturally intercede for me, isn't it the prince who will suffer at that time?"

Shi Fenglan held back the throbbing pain in her heart, and said stiffly: "You don't have to use this to bluff me, my brother won't!" ”

"I've already reminded you, if the county lord insists on not believing it, I can't do anything!" With that, she got up and left.

Shi Fenglan didn't expect Ye Xuemei to leave like this, and by the time she came back to her senses, Ye Xuemei had already walked down the stairs. Shi Fenglan looked at Ye Xuemei's back and shouted, "Hey, how can you let go of Brother Yuzhi?" ”

Ye Xuemei didn't reply, and sat straight into the sedan chair. Rong Xiang asked on the side, "Girl, is this really okay?" ”

"King Ning is her biggest weakness, as long as she says that King Ning has something, she will definitely not mess around!" Although Ye Xuemei said it so firmly, Rong Xiang still couldn't help but be a little worried.

At the moment, the rain has become much lighter. In the drizzle, the group returned to the palace. Because he has been helping Gongliang to stop planning during this time, his body is overdrawn a lot, so he quickly rested.

Rong Xiang wanted to tell Gongliang about this matter and ask him to ask a doctor to come back, but Ye Xuemei didn't let her say it, so she just asked her to quietly go to Kaifeng City to find a doctor with better medical skills.

Rong Xiang had no choice but to follow her orders and find the doctor. After the doctor prescribed the medicine for Ye Xuemei, he left. Rong Xiang sent the doctor away, and when he was about to go back, he happened to meet Gongliang Yuzhi. Gongliang Yuzhi went up to inquire and see what the man was doing.

Rong Xiang told him that the girl saw that autumn was coming and the weather was cold, so she thought about going to the Caiyi Fang to make some clothes, which was the person who came to the Caiyi Fang to tailor the girl. Gongliang stopped hearing the words, and asked Manager Cai to hurry up and deal with the matter. Mr. Cai got the advice of the public and was about to leave, but was stopped by Rong Xiang, she knew that if Mr. Cai went, she would definitely be exposed. But she was in such a hurry that the prescription hidden in her sleeve fell out. After Gongliang Yuzhi picked it up, he saw the words on it, and knew that it was a prescription, and after careful questioning, he knew that Ye Xuemei was sick.

He didn't care about the heavy rain again, so he hurriedly handed the prescription to Manager Cai and asked him to let his subordinates boil the medicine, and then he braved the rain to visit Ye Xuemei in the east courtyard.

At this time, Ye Xuemei was resting on the bed, and after seeing Gongliang's words, she asked in surprise: "Why did the prince come in the rain?" This dress and hair are soaked, go change your clothes and don't catch a cold! ”

Gongliang stopped and said: "It's okay, my body is strong, and this rain can't help me." But girl, you don't keep the promise! ”

Ye Xuemei was slightly surprised: "When did I not abide by the agreement?" ”

"You said that you would assist me in ascending to the throne of God, and you also said that you would protect me and my mother, but you have worked so hard to defeat the imperial brother without your help? If the girl really keeps the agreement, she should know that she should cherish her body! ”

At this time, Ye Xuemei glanced at Rong Xiang beside her and said, "You told the prince about this matter?" ”

Rong Xiang hurriedly said: "No, girl! Slaves don't! ”

Gongliang said to her: "She didn't tell me about this matter, but you shouldn't hide it from me!" I've already asked someone to boil the medicine, and you'll have to take it on time later, understand? ”

Ye Xuemei's autumn eyes gradually bent, "I understand, you can rest assured!" In the future, I will definitely follow the doctor's instructions, take medicine on time, and not be tired! ”

After Rong Xiang, who was standing on the side, saw this scene, she quietly withdrew from the house, leaving only the two of them.

"What if you perfunctory me again?"

Ye Xuemei stretched out her finger and entangled her little finger with his, "In this way, do you believe it?" ”

The gentleness from her fingers softened Gongliang's heart, "Okay, then you remember, it's hard to chase after a word!" ”

Ye Xuemei also smiled lightly: "Okay! ”

"By the way, what's going on over there with Wang Yanliang?"

"Don't worry, like the prince, he is also a person who values love and righteousness!"

"Okay, if that's the case, I'll be relieved, and you won't have to worry about dealing with the queen mother!"

"What happened to the court?"

"It's still like that, one faction is wide, and the other faction is strict. The royal brother handed it over to the third division to deal with, and I believe that there will be results soon! ”

"That's it, that's good! I want the prince to bring a message to the Seven Kings, so that Yang Nan can continue to defend Wan Delin and help him speak. ”

After Gongliang stopped listening, he pointed to her finger, "Why did you forget again?" ”

After hearing this, Ye Xuemei pointed to her head and said with a smile: "It's blank now, do you want to open it and take a look?" ”

After Gongliang stopped listening, he also laughed and said, "You, talking nonsense again." You're weak right now, you need to get some rest, you know? Wait a while, the next people will boil the medicine, and I'll feed you myself! ”

Ye Xuemei smiled indifferently and did not speak.

Gongliang looked at her and asked suspiciously: "You asked Yang Nan to help Wan Delin speak, are you really not afraid that the imperial brother will let him go?" ”

"No, Wan Delin is dead this time, if Emperor Song really lets him go, he will only discredit himself, and he will have no credibility in the future. If I were Emperor Song, I would kill him! ”

"But Wan Delin is the only son of Wan Hou Ye, and neither he nor his mother will agree!"

His words made Ye Xuemei's eyebrows jump, looking at the rain outside the window and not knowing what she was thinking. After a long time, she said, "Maybe we will have something else to gain in this matter!" ”

"What is it?"

"I don't know yet, but we'll know then!"

Gongliang didn't ask her, but said, "In that case, you can rest early, and I won't bother you!" ”

When he was leaving, Ye Xuemei said: "Those group of dart masters, please try your best to protect them!" ”

Gongliang Yuzhi turned his head to look at her and nodded, "Don't worry, since I promised them, I will definitely protect them!" With that, he left.

Looking at his departing back, the corners of Ye Xuemei's lips raised a gentle smile, which even she didn't notice.

On September 22, the third division finally decided on the result of Wan Delin, although he had been mentally prepared, but when he really saw the content of the fold, Gongliang Rongruo's eyelids still jumped hard.

Under the constant arguments between the two factions in the court, Gongliang Rongruo chose to protect his reputation and sentenced Wan Delin to be executed. This choice was the right one, but it also laid a hidden danger for him in the future. It's just that Gongliangruo didn't notice it at this time.

Hearing this decision, Wan Jin collapsed to the ground with a pale face, although he knew that all this was just a show, but it still made him extremely sad. Thinking of his majesty, only when he is old, he will be separated from his only son. His efforts over the years and Wandelin's future have been ruined.

After retreating from the court, the hundred officials left in turn, looking at Wan Jin, who was still kneeling in the main hall, Gongliang looked down and said: "Uncle, don't worry, I will protect Delin, and I won't really take his life." ”

Wan Jin raised his face, which had suddenly aged a lot, and his lips trembled: "The old minister knows, it's just ...... The old minister really couldn't swallow this breath in his heart, Jia Fa deceived people too much! ”

"I can't swallow it, it's just that this time he took advantage of it, and I can't do anything about him, but don't worry, Uncle Delin's hatred, Uncle's hatred, I will definitely ask him back."

Xiao Shunzi came to Wan Jin's side and helped him up, "It's very cold on this ground, so the slave will help you up." ”

With the support of Xiao Shunzi, Wan Jin stood up with difficulty and said sadly: "The old minister wants to go to see Delin, and he will ...... in the future I don't know when we'll see each other again. ”

"Go ahead, I'll take care of the rest of the work." After Wan Jin left, Gongliang Rongruo slammed the dragon vermilion pillar next to him, so frightened that Xiao Shunzi hurriedly took his hand to check. Fortunately, it was only slightly red and swollen, and it was fine. "Your Majesty beware of the dragon body, if this is injured, it will be terrible!"

Gongliang Rongruo said with a gloomy face: "Some people don't think so. ”

Xiao Shunzi knew that he was still angry about what happened just now, so he persuaded: "Master Jia is a little too much, but he has that temper. If not, that's weird! ”

"I know that I just regret that I didn't pull out this thorn sooner, so that he had the opportunity to make such a fuss."

"The slave understands that when this matter passes, His Majesty will find a reason to dismiss Lord Jia's official, and no one else will say anything if he thinks about it."

Gongliang Rongruo calmed down a little, and said in a cool voice: "Jia is easy to solve, and the others are really tricky." ”

Xiao Shunzi said on the side: "Your Majesty is talking about King Yan and them?" ”

"You have seen the way they are jumping up and down in the past few days, and it is clear that they are against me."

Xiao Shunzi smiled and said: "No matter how much they toss, in the end, they are just little fireflies, and how can the light of fireflies compete with Haoyue." ”

Gongliang Rong snorted coldly, "It's a pity that they don't have this self-knowledge, if they haven't found out who is in the hands of the night camp, where can they be allowed to run rampant!" ”

Xiao Shunzi said softly: "King Xin is dead, and the only princes summoned by the first emperor on his deathbed are King Yan, King Rong and King Mu. The old slave believes that it will be found out soon, and His Majesty does not need to be too anxious. ”

Gongliang Rongruo also knew that this matter was in a hurry, so he breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the dragon chair and sat down, "Who do you think is appropriate to hand over the matter of Delin?" ”

Xiao Shunzi's eyes rolled slightly, and he bowed down and said: "Lord Wan is now imprisoned in the Criminal Department, if there is no accident, it must be the Criminal Department who is responsible for the beheading, so the slave thinks that he should choose someone from the Criminal Department to do it." ”

Gongliang Rong bowed his head slightly, and spit out a name, "Yang Nan? ”

After thinking carefully for a long time, Xiao Shunzi said: "Lord Yang is now in charge of the Criminal Department, and he has always advocated leniency in the case of Lord Wan, he is the most suitable person, but he is not a descendant of His Majesty, and rashly handed over this matter to him, the slave thinks that the risk is too great." ”

Xiao Shunzi waited for a while, but didn't see Gongliang Rongruo talking, but stared at himself vigorously, and couldn't help but say, "But the slave said it wrong?" ”

Gongliang Rongruo said with a smile: "Yesterday, Yuan Wang said to me that since you entered the winter, you have suffered from rheumatism, and you often have pain at night and cannot sleep steadily. I wonder why you are a young man, why are you sick? If it's serious, it's time to take a break and recuperate. ”

Yuan Wang is Xiao Shunzi's apprentice, and he has been waiting in Xingde Hall with Xiao Shunzi all these years.

When Xiao Shunzi heard this, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there has been a lot of autumn rain recently, and the slave is a little cold, but it is only a minor illness, and it is by no means as serious as Yuan Wang said." After a few acupuncture sessions by the imperial doctor, he has gotten a lot better, and he can't hinder waiting for His Majesty, so I beg Your Majesty not to drive the slaves away. ”

"If I had driven you away, I wouldn't have said that." After a pause, he continued: "Although Yuan Wang is quite careful in his work, he is not as cautious and careful as you after all, so let him continue to learn from you." As for Delin's matter, what you said is right, it is indeed not appropriate to hand it over to Yang Nan, and I will choose someone else to do it. As he spoke, he stretched out his arms, got up and said, "I will go to Ningshou Palace, you don't have to follow." ”
