Chapter 9: The Return and the Imperial Sister-in-law

In the Wellcome Inn, Xiao Mu has not been able to seriously think about how to clean up Lin Ye, because Xiao Mu is being brainwashed by everyone - since the queen mother has fallen, then persuading the emperor to return to the palace has become a top priority. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"The emperor is the chosen hero, inheriting the unification, the people of the world are all excited. Now the emperor has left the palace to patrol, ignoring the government and politics, and the subjects of the world are like hungry children who have lost their parents, and there is no rain for a long time. I want to be more than 200 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, passed to this day, natural disasters continue, the war is endless, at this critical autumn, the burden of the world, are all the emperor's body, the ministers and other implores the emperor to return to the palace to govern, the Ming Dynasty, thanks to the emperor's management. ”

First of all, he came to the sect Dao Ying Lord, the Mandate of Heaven or something, and then Luo Yangxing further brought Xiao Mu an explosive news:

"Knowing that the emperor is reluctant to return to the palace, Empress Zhang in the palace has personally led all the pavilion elders to come to Daxing together, and Weichen calculates that he can arrive this afternoon."

It seems that it is just an appetizer now, and when the big army comes, Xiao Mu will face a more fierce siege......

So Xiao Mu hurriedly called off the army and made a truce, and changed the topic: "The whereabouts of the queen have not been found yet, the top priority is to rescue the queen first, and the matter of returning to the palace will be talked about when the queen is found." ”

"Your Majesty, great joy, great joy, the queen is back, safe and sound." Wang Chengen trotted all the way into the room and said, giving Xiao Mu's last line of defense a heart-wrenching blow.

Lai Zongdao and Luo Yangxing looked at each other and smiled, and secretly applauded Wang Chengen in their hearts, the queen mother is also back, now the emperor has no reason not to return to the palace, right? God bless me Daming, congratulations.

can make the civil officials, eunuchs and Jinyiwei, who originally looked down on each other, get along and cooperate so well, think in one place, and work hard in one place, Xiao Mu feels that he is really indispensable.

Then Lin Yi led a woman into the room. In front of everyone, Xiao Mu pretended to be concerned about two sentences: "It's good to come back, the queen has suffered, has the thief ever dared to be rude to the queen?" The queen is pregnant, take a good rest and recuperate with peace of mind......" After caring about Lin Yi, Xiao Mu said again: "Where are Yang Tao and Hu Yun?" The two of them have made meritorious contributions to the rescue, and I want to reward them well! ”

"Back to the emperor, the queen mother came back alone, and she didn't see Yang Tao and Hu Yun......," Wang Chengen replied.

Later, Lin Yi also said that she came back on her own and did not meet the two.

"Well, I think the queen is witty and decisive, and she escaped from the thieves alone, so it's good to come back anyway." Everyone then followed and patted a sycophant, the queen was clever, Jiren Tianxiang, God blessed Daming and the like.

Then Xiao Mu saw the woman brought behind Lin Ye, the woman saw that Lin Ye turned out to be the current queen's mother, and it was the current emperor who talked to her, needless to say, the people in the room must be the princes and ministers, and her heart was surprised and happy, terrified, kneeling on the ground and not daring to speak.

"Your Majesty, there is a miasma of smoke in this Daxing city, officials and bandits collude, and the people have no way to redress their grievances, please be sure to make decisions for it." Lin Ye pointed to the woman behind him and introduced Xiao Mu, "This is the Feng family, who has been wronged ......" It turned out that Lin Ye could still speak so seriously, which made Xiao Mu feel very surprised.

"Oh, but the wife of the shopkeeper of the Hongyuan Restaurant?" Xiao Mu asked.

"Exactly, the emperor knows about the Hongyuan Restaurant?" Lin Yi asked in surprise.

"I listened to what Da Zhuang said about that kid, and I know a little bit about it......

When Xiao Mu answered, Yang Tao was hurrying in from outside, and said:

"Your Majesty, I am incompetent and incompetent, and I have failed to find the queen mother." As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Tao saw Lin Yi beside Xiao Mu, "It turns out that Niangniang has returned safely, congratulations." ”

"You have put a lot of effort into finding the queen, and you have also been rewarded! It's been a hard journey, so let's go down and rest first. Xiao Mu said.

"This time, I brought Daxingzhi County and the owner of the Hongyun Restaurant back together......"

"Oh? If you catch the thief, you will be even more rewarded! Bring the thieves up, come to the sect, and cultivate the nature, and you will meet the thieves with me. Xiao Mu said.

"Ministers obey ......"

Hu Yun led Liang Yuehao of Daxingzhi County, who was soaked in cold sweat, and Liang Yanyang, who had fainted and fell unconscious, into the house, Xiao Mu found that even though his room was the highest and most spacious upper room of the Wellcome Inn, now that so many people came in, it seemed very crowded and cramped.

"Weichen Liang Yuehao knocked to see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Xiao Mu said: "Calm down." ”

"Your Majesty." As soon as Liang Yuehao's words fell, Luo Yangxing asked, "Lord Liang, did you catch this thief with your own hands?" ”

"Exactly."

Lai Zongdao said: "Lord Liang is really capable and talented, and he can be of great use, but there is still something unclear about this official, please ask Lord Liang to answer." ”

"My lord, excuse me."

"Then the official asked, this thief's name is Liang Yanyang, and it is somewhat similar to Lord Liang's name, I don't know what the relationship between this thief and Lord Liang is?" Lai Zongdao asked.

"This ......" Liang Yuehao hesitated.

Luo Yangxing smiled: "Lord Liang doesn't need to panic, the official should ask this thief first." Come on, wake up this thief who is pretending to be dead. ”

was busy getting water to wake up Liang Yanyang, and Wang Chengen hurried in to say:

"Your Majesty, Empress Zhang and the elders in the palace have arrived."

Xiao Muxin said that he could hide from the first day of junior high school, but he couldn't hide from the fifteenth, so he had to bite the bullet and go to meet people.

"Keep this thief under strict guard, and don't let him escape. Lord Liang worked hard to catch the thief, so go back to rest first. Xiao Mu said, "Go with me to meet the imperial sister-in-law." ”

While Xiao Mu was talking, the people below had already brought a basin of cold water and splashed it on Liang Yanyang's face, but poor Liang Yanyang was unconscious, he had just been splashed awake, and in the words of Lin Yi in 2333, he was in a state of "stupidity", and he was pulled down again...... Hu Yun led someone to "escort" Liang Yuehao back, and it was obvious that Liang Yuehao didn't want to take a step out of this Daxing Yamen.

……

With the absence of Liang Yuehao and Liang Yanyang, but the addition of Empress Zhang and a large number of pavilion elders, Xiao Mu's room seemed even more crowded.

"Let the imperial sister-in-law worry, the labor imperial sister-in-law came in person, it really makes me ashamed." Xiao Mu said that in the memory of the original Zhu Youzhen that was incomplete in his mind, Empress Zhang gave great help when he ascended the throne, and without Empress Zhang, Zhu Youzhen might not be able to ascend the throne smoothly and get rid of Wei Zhongxian. Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen respected Empress Zhang very much, and after ascending the throne, he honored her as "Empress Yi'an".

So, as if a conditioned reflex, Xiao Mu also had a lot of respect for Empress Zhang in front of him, and even had the feeling of being discovered by his parents after doing something bad - although Empress Zhang and Zhu Youzhen's brother Zhu Youxiao were of the same age, they were only twenty-three or four years old now, and they were even slightly younger than Xiao Mu's age in his previous life.

"Why did the emperor leave the palace suddenly and leave that edict?" Empress Zhang asked eagerly, although the words were not harsh, they still made Xiao Mu nervous, and made Xiao Mu vaguely remember the scene in the TV series he had watched before, when Emperor Shunzhi wanted to become a monk and was severely scolded after being discovered by the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang. It is estimated that Empress Zhang has also prepared a lot of big truths to educate herself, Xiao Mu feels that in the ancient society that pays attention to the eldest sister-in-law as a mother, it is estimated that he can only listen obediently......

sorted out his thoughts and confirmed that he did not have a mother-lover complex, nor was he a pervert such as sister-lover or sister-in-law fetish. also confirmed that it is impossible for him to be reasonable, and it is impossible for him to be able to talk about the imperial sister-in-law in front of him and a large group of pavilion elders behind him - these pavilion elders can achieve this position, they must all be the great Confucians of the world, not to mention the ability to govern the country, when it comes to quoting scriptures and the great principles of sage governance, looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, he can't find an opponent, in the face of such an all-star lineup, Xiao Mu directly gave up the illusion of resistance.

Especially since so many things have happened in the first few days since he ran out, Xiao Mu also feels that it is really safer to be outside than to be inside the palace, and it is not a bad choice to return to the palace.

So Xiao Mu replied: "The imperial sister-in-law misunderstood, I heard that there was an injustice in Daxing the day before yesterday, and I came to this county with a micro-service to visit the people. Xiao Mu directly beautified his early escape into a private visit to Weifu and observe the people's feelings. This reminded Xiao Mu of the picture of Emperor Kangxi paying private interviews everywhere in the TV series he had watched before......

"As for the edict that the imperial sister-in-law said, I don't know what it is, I didn't leave any edict before I left the palace." As for the edict he wrote that was incompetent and virtuous, and abdicated to make way for Xian, Xiao Mu completely denied it and pretended to be ignorant to show it to Empress Zhang.

Anyway, if he doesn't admit it, no one will force himself to confront him, and after he goes back, he will burn the edict, Xiao Mu thinks that he can fool the past in this way.

Empress Zhang naturally understood Xiao Mu's intentions, but since the emperor had no intention of abdicating, there was no need for Empress Zhang to break it, in front of so many courtiers, she naturally wanted to save some face for the emperor. So Empress Zhang asked, "Oh? I don't know what the emperor's petition has found out about the people, and what grievances are there? ”

"Sister-in-law, there is indeed a collusion between officials and bandits in this Daxing City, officials at all levels ignore it, and the people have no way to redress their grievances." Xiao Mu replied, seeing that the ministers below were all ashamed, Xiao Mu was even more convinced of the justice and necessity of his actions.

"Even if there are indeed grievances among the people, it is enough to send someone to visit, why should the emperor come in person, I have thousands of counties in Damingzhou, and the affairs are continuous every day, how can the emperor lose a big one because of a small one? Besides, the emperor is out of the palace, if he encounters a bad plot, won't my foundation be shaken? ”

"What the imperial sister-in-law said is very true, this time out of the palace is indeed dangerous, the queen was once held by thieves, I also deeply regret it, fortunately the queen is safe and sound, mother and son are safe, otherwise I am really my face to see the ancestors and ancestors." Xiao Mu said as he betrayed Lin Ye by the way.

"Oh? The queen is pregnant, and the emperor has a queen, which is really my joy. When Empress Zhang heard that Lin Yi had really encountered danger, she first felt afraid, and then she was overjoyed when she heard that Lin Ye was pregnant.

Lin Yi scolded Xiao Mu half to death in his heart, the pregnancy was originally made up, now everyone knows, where do you want me to conjure up a child when the time comes? Do you really want to sleep with Xiao Mu yourself? There are no doors, don't even think about it. It seems that you can only fool the past first, and then pretend that you fell and ate the wrong thing and the fetus was not saved......

When Lin Yi was thinking about how to get through the trick, Empress Zhang asked again: "In this case, I don't know when the emperor plans to return to the palace?" ”

"I will return after I avenge the grievances of the people of Daxing and severely punish the evildoers." Xiao Mu first replied to Empress Zhang, and then said to the elders: "Since you are here, you will try this case with me." ”

"The ministers obey."
