Chapter 40: The Secret Decree

On Fujian's side, Feng Wuxian is anxiously waiting for the will of the imperial court. To be honest, although he took the responsibility, he has always had a bottom in his heart, after all, it is not a trivial matter. However, before the decree came, the man who announced the good news from the palace came first, and he listened to the news of the man almost dumbfounded.

"Red is pregnant?" He muttered to himself, "Why at this time? ”

As soon as the words fell, he felt a sharp pain in his vest, turned his head to look, and found that Chen Lingcheng was standing behind him with a straight face, his eyes were fierce. Feng Wuxian woke up to his slip of the tongue, in fact, he was too irritable, I don't know when the matter here in Fujian will be finished, Hongru is about to give birth, but he is about to become a father but it is impossible to catch up no matter what, in a hurry, he smashed his fist on his head.

Chen Lingcheng's face was also a changeable expression, over the years, he had already regarded the well-behaved Hongru as his own daughter. As a doctor, he naturally knows that women are the most dangerous during childbirth, even if they are pampered and noble, what will happen when they give birth is unpredictable. He began to regret listening to Hongru's request, otherwise, he would have been able to take care of his daughter at this time.

"Old Chen, you can go back." Feng Wuxian struggled for a long time, and barely burst out with a sentence, "This king is really not at ease, there are too many entanglements in the capital, red as a single person, if there is a ,...... with three long and two short"

"Phew!" Chen Lingcheng took a heavy sip, "What kind of frustrating words did His Highness say!" The old man wants to go back, but things here are even more tricky, if Hongru asks, how should the old man explain? With Prince Min watching in the capital, there shouldn't be anything wrong, right? Still, he spoke with great weakness, unlike his usual confident appearance.

Feng Wuxian fell on the chair a little weakly, and couldn't help cursing the culprit behind the scene who caused the trouble, but he had no choice but to investigate the yamen for a long time, but there was no clue, it was the same unsolved case as when he assassinated himself. "Dexi, did Madame Red tell you anything else?" He asked casually.

The little guy called Dexi is a subordinate trained by Fan Qingcheng himself, and he is also quite popular and trusted. Seeing the sad face of the master, I don't know what he is thinking. Simply kowtowed, and Dexi said hesitantly: "If you go back to Your Highness, before the slave leaves, Madam Hong only said that Her Highness should not remember her, do her errands with peace of mind, and don't disappoint the emperor." He also said that Prince Min sent several subordinates to serve, and various palaces also sent a lot of precious medicinal materials and supplements, and the Tai Hospital took care of them, so there would be no problems. ”

Feng Wuxian sneered, extremely uneasy in his heart, there will be no difference? I think that when Concubine Yu was pregnant, the emperor was so cautious, but in the end he let his beloved concubine go, otherwise, how could his body be so weak at the beginning? The heavenly family has no flesh and bones, as long as it is for that position, nothing can be done. Although he has repeatedly stated that he has no intention of taking the heir, there must be no few people who are obsessed with the child in the red belly. "Dexi, you go back and tell Qingcheng, no matter which palace sends the things, they must be checked by someone before they can be used, especially the things in the palace. Do you understand? ”

Dexi pretended to understand, "The slave understands, Madam Hong is weak and needs to be supplemented, in case it stimulates the little master in the abdomen, it is not good." The servant will definitely tell Chief Fan and the Imperial Doctor, and Madam Hong will also inform you, please rest assured. ”

Chen Lingcheng looked at this clever boy, and couldn't help but show a smile, although Fan Qingcheng was not good back then, but he did have some skills in the two years in the palace, although it is impossible to be as inaccessible as an iron barrel, but each of these subordinates serving in the inner courtyard is loyal, but it is really commendable. He also knows a little bit of the art of matchmaking, of course, he can see that although Dexi is a little slippery, his nature is still good, and he can be regarded as a person who can be cultivated. "Your Highness, there are a lot of people serving in the palace, according to the old man's opinion, it is better to ask Manager Fan to invite a reliable Xixi, select some people with good qualifications among the subordinates, and teach them so that they can be called in the future, I don't know what Your Highness thinks?" Chen Lingcheng suggested.

Feng Wuxian only understood what he meant after a little thought, yes, which of these young people from humble backgrounds has no dreams in their hearts, and which one doesn't want to get ahead? If they can really study and improve, they will be recommended to be officials in the future, and they will be able to have more strength in their own hands. "Just according to what Chen Lao said. Dexi, go back and talk to Qingcheng, let him find a Xixi, the silver is not tight, the important thing is to be reliable, and the knowledge should be good. If possible, it is not impossible for him to enlighten the future son at that time. "Feng Wuxian doesn't care about the name of the Confucian family, his own children, it's better not to be tainted by those pedantic things.

"Slave thank Your Highness for your grace!" Dexi was so happy that he kowtowed a few times, and he sold himself to take refuge at the beginning, just because he couldn't open the pot at home, let alone read and write. Now that you have a good master and can still read, it is really a good thing that you can't meet with lanterns, "Your Highness and Lord Chen's grace, the slave will definitely let everyone in the palace know about it, so that they can all be grateful for your kindness." ”

"It's just a little thing." Feng Wuxian also seemed to be a little emotional, "Okay, Dexi, you have worked hard all the way, and you should rest for a day or two before rushing back, but this king is not manpower here, so I have to let you go back overnight." Go back and let Qingcheng treat you, keep the things you tell in your heart, and you don't need to publicize them. ”

Dexi agreed repeatedly, not to mention the reward of silver, but for the grace of the master just now, he couldn't care about fatigue. "Then the minions will go back first, don't worry, the minions will definitely serve Madame Hong, and you will get good news soon."

"Poor mouth!" Chen Lingcheng reprimanded, "Hurry up and get on the road, the city gate will be closed later." ”

The decree of the imperial court finally arrived on the twentieth day of September, and to the surprise of Feng Wuxi, it was an insignificant little eunuch in the inner palace who was in charge of announcing the decree, and the expected court officials did not come. And this little eunuch also received a secret decree, and he galloped on a stagecoach along the way, but he didn't say anything about the envoy's pomp. The will is also an understatement, although it is a severe reprimand of Feng Wuxi, but when it comes to punishment, it is very small, the penalty is one year, plus a month of thinking behind closed doors, and thinking of the heavy responsibility of Feng Wuxian in his body, he will think about it behind closed doors and will be carried out after returning to Beijing. As for Guo Hanjin and Lu Simang, the punishment is very subtle, one is to remove the hereditary title, downgrade one level plus a fine for one year, temporarily take the position of political envoy, and still act as governor before the new governor takes office, in order to see the after-effects, and the other is also reduced to one level and fined for two years, but he is still in charge of the Yamen. For the post of governor, the imperial court will send a new official to take office within the month. In terms of their sins, this punishment can be said to be very small, and it is not even enough to deal with the mistakes they committed in dealing with the great disaster, let alone the two major events that followed.

"What does Father mean?" Feng Wuxian felt his head tingle, "This is an understatement, will the government and the opposition think that I am protecting these two people?" Could it be that those officials in the DPRK and China, who are eyeing this piece of fat in Fujian, let their father make such a decision easily? ”

"Shi doesn't understand either, Your Highness should go and visit Lord Guo and Master Lu first." Shi Jingqi smiled bitterly, "Rather than going into detail alone, it's better to let the two of them use their brains too, and by the way, let those two make up their minds." ”

"Rather than let me go, it's better for them to come." Feng Wuxi's face also became serious, "Since I took such a big risk for them, it's worth them to take one or two steps, isn't it?" ”

"Someone!" Feng Wuxian shouted loudly, "Go and ask Lord Guo and Lord Lu to come over to the mansion to discuss matters." ”

Guo Hanjin and Lu Simang got off the sedan chair almost at the same time, and the two glanced at each other, each revealing a trace of imperceptible hostility, and then greeted each other warmly. The entourage beside him knew that the two had been friends for many years, and no one knew that they were already in harmony at this time, and they were on the same page.

Walking into the study, the buttocks of the two of them were not yet hot, and as soon as the tea cup touched their hands, they heard Feng Wuxian say lightly: "Today's imperial envoy from the imperial court has come." ”

Guo Hanjin's hand trembled, and the boiling water in the teacup couldn't help splashing a few drops, which happened to hit his fingers, and he almost snorted in pain. Lu Simang was no better, he simply put down the teacup, and the person stood up in embarrassment.

"Your Highness, I don't know what the emperor will do to the criminals?" Lu Simang said tentatively.

Guo Hanjin also stood up, and also looked at Feng Wuxian with an inquiring eye, feeling uneasy in his heart.

"You don't need to be so nervous." Feng Wuxian said with a smile, "Although the emperor has been punished, however, this king has also received it, but it is a punishment such as a penalty and a knighthood, and the lack of the two is not lost." ”

The penalty is a trivial matter, after all, Guo Hanjin and Lu Simang don't look down on that bit of money. But it is a bit tricky to win the title, Guo Hanjin's title comes from his uncle, because the long house has no queen before it falls into his hands, if it is passed on to his generation and lost, it will undoubtedly be lost when the time comes. But at this time, it was the time to think about this, Guo Hanjin hurriedly confessed, "The emperor's grace is remembered by Weichen." However, His Royal Highness said that the lack of the two of us has not been lost, is the emperor ......?"

"Two more downgrades." Feng Wuxian also felt that the emperor's disposition was a little ironic, "In this way, in terms of grade, you are the lowest-ranking feudal officials in my dynasty." ”

If you add the three-level downgrade in the previous will, Guo Hanjin and Lu Simang have already been downgraded by four levels in a row. Others are all high-ranking officials, and they are good, and they are not lost, but this grade is getting smaller and smaller. The faces of the two of them were a little unnatural, and Lu Simang barely squeezed out a smile, "Can Your Highness make the emperor's will clear?" ”

"That is the emperor's secret decree, and it will not be announced to the Fujian officials for the time being, and the king will only inform you. During the month, the court will appoint a new governor, and the official will be announced. However, the punishment of this king is also in the secret decree, and if you are interested, this king does not mind reading it to you. ”

Although the two were a little embarrassed, they still cared about their own affairs in the end and thanked them busily. After listening to the whole text, they were all stunned. The will only brought them up, and most of them were sent to the prince, although the punishment was not heavy, but thinking of Feng Wuxi's identity, the two couldn't help but be more worried about their future, after all, their backstage had been lost, if Feng Wuxian sprinkled fire on their heads, the two of them would not even have a place to hide.
