Chapter 149: Mountain rain is coming
When the clouds heard that Cheng was coming, they came out to greet him in person. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć She couldn't suppress her excitement, and said in a trembling voice, "How is Your Highness?" ā
Cheng Chuhuang is an honest man, he relayed the words of Li Su, the king of Liang, he said; "Khan, His Highness asked his ministers to say to you, the original words are: Dark clouds, I miss you."
When Qibi Wuyun heard this, tears couldn't help but fall. After a while, she wiped away her tears and invited Cheng Chuhuang and Yu Chi Baoqi into the sweat tent.
After reading Li Su's letter, she said: "Please tell Your Highness, I will definitely handle this matter, please rest assured." ā
Cheng Chuhuang and Wei Chi Baoqi rested for half a day and then returned.
The Imperial Court (Heavenly Prison) where the Imperial Court prisoners were imprisoned. (hereinafter referred to as the Heavenly Prison)
These days, the life of Li Ke, the king of Shu, is very difficult. Li Ke is a proud person, he has always thought that he is talented, conceited, and outstanding, and has always been above the top.
He was most unconvinced by the crown prince Li Chengqian, who felt that he was inferior to himself and was a wreck, so he had always been determined to replace him.
At this time, he was involved in an inexplicable case of the enemy, and the first thing he thought of was not his own situation, but that after such a change, it would be more difficult to compete for the position of the prince in the future. I can't help but feel a little disheartened.
In the prison cell, he found that the warmth and coldness of the world were really unacceptable. Usually those who talk about themselves all day long, since he went to prison, there has not been a single person who has come to visit him, and most of them are afraid of being implicated in a relationship with him.
However, he has not completely failed as a man, and his sworn friends, Chai Zhewei, the son of Chai Shao, the Xianggong of the State of China, and Fang Yiai, the son of Fang Xuanling, the secretary of the Ministry of War, did not abandon him and came to visit him in prison.
Li Ke advised them not to come again, so as not to be implicated. These two close friends who have followed him since he was a child firmly supported him and encouraged him.
Concubine Yang came to see him twice in three days and brought him some clothes and food.
On this day, Concubine Yang came to see Li Ke, and she said to the cell boss: "You all stay away, and the two of us have to talk alone." ā
The cell boss said flatteringly: "Niangniang, please." "After that, hurry up and leave.
Regarding the idea of rescuing Li Ke, both Li Su and Cen Wenwen repeatedly told Concubine Yang to keep it secret and not to tell anyone, but to try to inform Li Ke. Concubine Yang Niangniang came to inform him.
Seeing Li Ke's disgraced face and a depressed look, she said: "Ke'er, you have to cheer up, the mother concubine is trying to rescue you." You must remember not to take charges against you, and you must bite the bullet and refuse to admit it to the death in the case of the enemy. ā
Li Ke said: "And the minister didn't know about it, so of course he wouldn't admit it." ā
Concubine Yang said: "That's good, that's good." You are in prison, take care of your body, and your mother will definitely rescue you. ā
Li Ke said: "Mother, you don't have to comfort your son, your son knows that this matter is too big, and it will be difficult for your son to get away with it." Wei Zheng is selfless, I'm afraid even his father can't do it.
Erchen knew that someone was framing Erchen, but he only blamed Erchen's father-in-law Lan Yu for being involved, alas, this is fate. ā
Concubine Yang said: "You have to be confident, Cen Wenwen is trying to rescue you, and even your brother is actively trying to find a way for you." ā
"He, Li Su still rescued me? It's good if he doesn't fall into the ground, Erchen suspects that he and the prince did this matter, and they must have stabbed him in the back and framed Erchen. ā
Concubine Yang said: "You can think like this? He is your brother after all, and he will help you even for the sake of the mother. He said he had a way to get you out. ā
Li Ke listened to Concubine Yang's words, and a glimmer of hope suddenly rose in his heart. This three-pested younger brother of mine is really powerful, he is simply a demon. If he could really come to the rescue, maybe there would be a way.
Since Concubine Yang revealed the news of rescuing him to Li Ke, Li Ke's mental state has also improved a lot, and he even bit himself to death that he did not participate in the case.
People are warm and cold, and the world is hot and cold. Concubine Yang's life is not easy, the concubines in the palace used to be jealous of Concubine Yang, and now when they see Li Ke's accident, they are waiting to see how unlucky she will be next.
What is embarrassing is that the eunuchs in charge of the affairs of the palace have always looked down on people. Seeing that Concubine Yang was going to be unlucky, she also began to follow her to wear small shoes, either by deducting the things that were given to her, or by dragging them out.
Concubine Yang can only endure silently, and her personal maids and servants can only swallow their anger.
Seeing that the days are passing day by day, there has been no progress in the case of Li Ke, the king of Shu. Li Tai, the king of Wei, couldn't sit still.
Wei Wangfu.
In Li Tai's study, surrounded by his sworn friend Zuo Shilang (the first deputy Shangshu, Zheng Erpin) Wang Qi, the Zuo Shilang (the first deputy Shangshu, Zheng Erpin) Yan Liben of the Criminal Department, Du Wei, a member of the Ministry of Officials Wailang (from the fifth grade), and Ma Qianli from the Yushi Tai Yushi Tai (from the fourth product) who impeached Li Su last time.
Yan Liben, the right attendant of the Criminal Department, made great contributions to the investigation of the Yantie case this time, and he had a lot of face among the henchmen of the King of Wei, and he had the greatest say in discussing matters related to this case.
He said: "The facts of this case are clear, the evidence is conclusive, and it is said that Wei Zheng has decided the case, and it is a case of the enemy. In this way, the king of Shu will definitely die. However, the emperor has not replied for a long time, and there must be a reason for this. ā
Wang Qi, the teacher of Li Tai, the king of Wei and the chief adviser of the Ministry of Rites, said: "The matter is obvious, this is because the emperor does not want Li Ke to have an accident and is trying to rescue him. The emperor's delay in replying is that he is stalling for time and trying to find a solution to the problem. ā
Yushitai Yushi Niu Lu said: "What can the emperor do? The evidence in this case is ironclad, even the emperor cannot overturn the case, and the king of Shu is dead this time. ā
Du He's elder brother, Du Gou, a member of the ministry, said with some concern: "I'm a little worried, that King Liang, the head of the three evils of demons, is the younger brother of the King of Shu after all, he is very powerful, he is afraid that he will not stand idly by, if he intervenes, maybe things will change." ā
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.
After a year's struggle, everything aimed at the three evils, even against the crown prince Li Chengqian, the king of Wei, Li Tai and his group have never taken advantage of it, and they have been made gray every time. Now, when they hear the name of the three evils, they are all a little touched.
Especially the Yushitai Yushi Niu Road, he is now very afraid of sticking to things related to the three evils, and he has been thwarted again and again. If it weren't for Li Tai, the king of Wei, to protect him, his imperial history would have been taken away a long time ago.
He said worriedly: "If King Liang comes to the rescue, maybe the King of Shu will turn over." ā
Wang Qi said: "The minister also thinks that things are a little weird. The emperor has been delaying again and again, as if he is waiting for some news, maybe they have thought of some way to rescue the king of Shu. ā
When Li Tai, the king of Wei, heard them say this, he was also a little worried, and he said: "Then what should we do, we finally have this opportunity, can we just watch it slip away?" ā
