Chapter Ninety-Eight: Disobedience to the Decree

I ran to the front hall and saw a father-in-law sitting there with two attendants. Yuanhang stepped forward to salute and said, "My father-in-law has come from afar, and I have worked hard all the way. ”

The father-in-law hurriedly got up and returned the salute and said, "This is Lord Ye, our family is Wang Jin of the Inner Servant Mansion." ”

Yuanhang had a smile on his face and said, "It turned out to be the prince, please take a seat." ”

Wang Jin was polite, sat down, took out a letter from his bosom, and said: "The emperor ordered our family to hand over this letter to Lord Ye. ”

Yuanhang got up and took the letter, opened it, and looked at it. The letter reads: The sky will be warm, and the magpie has branched. Say goodbye to Qing, a few days apart. I will get married, and all the people will celebrate together. Looking forward to getting together and enjoying the flowers together, I don't know if the trees in the garden can be moved?

Yuanhang closed the letter, pondered for a while, and asked, "When is the emperor's wedding scheduled?" ”

Wang Jin replied, "It is scheduled for the twenty-sixth of this month." ”

Yuanhang was shocked, it was two days before he got married, if he went to the back hall, he would not have time to rush back. The emperor's letter hinted that he was going to discuss sending troops to attack Xiaoliang, what should be done?

Although Yuanhang was anxious, he still smiled and said to Wang Jin on the surface: "I already know, please rest in the father-in-law's mansion, and I will return to the emperor later." ”

Back in the study, the voyage paced back and forth to think. If you don't go, you are disobedient. If you go, you won't be able to get married. Tangled in the tightening of his brows, thinking about Liqiu and the others, Yuanhang secretly decided not to return to the back hall. Pick up the pen and write back: The emperor's wedding, the ministers are very happy. However, how to eat the king's Lu and serve the king's life. The city of Yizhou is heavy, and the ministers dare not leave privately, for fear that the enemy will be moved. I had to wait for the opportunity to pull out the tree and urge the city to serve the emperor's order.

After writing it, Yuanhang handed the letter to Wang Jin, and instructed his subordinates to take some silver taels and send them. Wang Jin politely said goodbye to Yuanhang and returned to the back hall to resume his life.

After the voyage saw Wang Jin away, he always felt uneasy. At this point, I didn't want to think about it too much, so Yuanhang simply didn't think about it, and turned around and went to the West Courtyard to exchange feelings with Hai Dongqing.

In the evening, I went to the East Courtyard and told Yilan about the letter from the back hall, and Yilan blamed Yuanhang for being confused, how dare I disobey the order. Wanyu pondered for a moment and said: "If it is really as said in the letter, it will be okay, if the emperor knows that you will not return to the back hall because you are married, he will condemn you." ”

Yuanhang thought for a while and said, "Yes, I didn't think it through. ”

Wanyue glanced at Yilan and said, "Sister, why don't we change the wedding date." ”

"The letter has been sent, what is the meaning of the change?" Yuanhang scratched his head and said: "It's Yilan's words that reminded me, I'm afraid that someone in the court will use things to talk about things." ”

"If that's the case, it's better to take offense as defense and know with the emperor first." Yilan looked at the voyage calmly and said.

Yuanhang looked at the slender woman, nodded lightly and said, "She is worthy of a famous lady and has some foresight." ”

Yilan's face was slightly red, and he smiled silently.

"Get a pen and paper." The voyage rolled up his sleeves and had an idea.

The letter paper was smoothed, and Yuanhang wrote another letter for Emperor Yinwen. The gist is that I will stick to the city and not go to the city for your wedding, so I decided to marry a wife two days after your wedding.

"Xianggong, this ......" frowned after looking at it gracefully.

"It's okay, the emperor knows me." Yuanhang said with a smile.

"The emperor always has to know, otherwise it will be a big mistake." Yilan nodded in approval.

Yuanhang echoed and said yes, saying to himself: "The emperor has never forgotten to recover Xiaoliang, and it seems that it is only a matter of the near future to send troops again." ”

Emperor Yin Wen sat in the hall of peace of mind, Chen Gonggong Chen Fu stood beside Emperor Yin Wen, and Situ Hao and Zhan Hu stood at the bottom.

"I got married, and all the state capitals gathered in the back hall, but I couldn't come to the long voyage, and I have a little regret in my heart." Zhang Xian said tremblingly with the voyage letter in his hand.

"Your Majesty, Ye Yuanhang's move is against the Holy Order." Chen Fu bowed with a gloomy face and said, "The holy wedding is celebrated by the whole world." The above county guards all entered the palace to congratulate, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty took this as the first priority. Could it be that he can't be called by the Holy Lord's own letter? ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thought that although Ye Zhizhou was suspected of disobedience, he was not guilty of disobedience. The little beam soldiers and horses are strong, watching the gaps. Ye Zhizhou can have this concern, which should be beyond the reach of others. Zhan Hu glanced at Chen Fu and bowed to Emperor Yin Wen and said.

Chen Fu's eyes narrowed, and he secretly scolded Zhan Hu in his heart. Secretly, you can just say good things for Ye Yuanhang, and wait for me to do something. looked at Zhan Hu and said, "I heard that Ye Zhizhou runs several shops in Yizhou, so I guess I can't get out because I'm busy making money." ”

"This ...... Xia Guan didn't know. Zhan Goyi said with a frown.

Emperor Yin Wen looked at Situ Hao and asked lightly, "How is Situ Aiqing's injury?" ”

Situ Hao hurriedly bowed down and said, "Thank you, thank you for the love of the saint, it's already a great deal." ”

Emperor Yin Wen smiled, nodded and said, "Very good, very good." Then he asked: "What do you think about Yuanhang's opening of a bank in Yizhou?" ”

Situ Hao was shocked and said lightly: "Your Majesty, it is reported that Ye Zhizhou opened a bank in Yizhou, as if it was to distribute dividends to the people. ”

Chen Fu interjected: "If you don't earn silver taels, can't you take out silver taels from your own mansion and distribute them to the people?" ”

"This Chen Gonggong should ask Ye Zhizhou, and I didn't open a bank, why are you aggressive with me?" Situ Hao looked at Chen Fu coldly.

Chen Fu knew that he was in a hurry, so he bowed down and said, "What Lord Situ said is that our family is in a panic. He turned to Emperor Yin Wen and said: "Your Majesty, in addition to the bank, Ye Zhizhou has also opened a pawnshop and a dart bureau, both of which have earned a lot of silver. ”

"Oh?" Emperor Yin Wen frowned, looked down and said, "Do you know this? ”

"I don't know." Situ Hao bowed and said.

Zhan Hu also hurriedly bowed his head and said, "The minister doesn't know. ”

Emperor Yin Wen slapped on the table with a 'snap', got up and said angrily: "Ye Yuanhang, as an official of the imperial court, dares to do business privately, it is really audacious. ”

Seeing that Emperor Yin Wen was angry, Zhan Hu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, take care of the dragon body." In the opinion of the ministers, the wedding should be the most important first, and then the matter should be investigated. ”

Situ Hao understood that Zhan Hu was delaying time for the voyage, and he also followed up and said: "Lord Zhan is reasonable, please calm the anger of the saint." ”

Emperor Yin Wen walked down slowly, stood beside Situ Hao and sighed, and said, "Yuanhang is a rare talent, I hope he can do it himself." If I really pamper him, I won't tolerate him. ”

Situ Hao hurriedly bowed down, understanding that the emperor was saying this to himself.

"Your Majesty, Yizhou Zhizhou Ye Yuanhang has a letter to submit." A father-in-law came in and delivered the second letter from the voyage.

After Emperor Yin Wen opened it and read it, he pondered for a while, sneered himself, and said, "In order to congratulate me on my wedding, he also wants to get married." ”

Chen Fu was so cunning, his eyes rolled and he stepped forward and bowed to Situ Hao and said, "Our family congratulates Lord Situ first, I don't know if you know about the marriage between Lingnu and Ye Zhizhou?" ”

Situ Hao ignored Chen Fu, bowed to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know. ”

Emperor Yin Wen glanced at Situ Hao and said lightly: "Knowing or not knowing for the time being, after my wedding, there will always be a conclusion." ”

Chen Fu originally wanted to play Situ Hao's crime of bullying the king, but when he saw Emperor Yin Wen passing by, he said in a dark voice: "Your Majesty, is it possible that Ye Zhizhou did not come to the back hall, because of this?" ”

Zhang Xian didn't think much about it, but when Chen Fu mentioned it, he frowned. Secretly said: Yes, this guy is not guarding the city, he didn't come because he got married.

"Your Majesty, Ye Zhizhou is a person who attaches great importance to the overall situation, and he will never come to the back hall for personal matters, and the ministers will vouch for it with their necks." Zhan Hu saw that it was not good, and hurriedly stepped forward and said.

Emperor Yin Wen pondered for a while, turned around and walked up, turned his back to them and said, "Stand down." ”

Zhan Hu and Situ Hao glanced at each other, bowed and retreated.

"Do you know that you are married?" Zhan Hu asked quietly after coming out.

"I only received the letter in the morning, how did this kid choose this time to get married, alas!" Situ Hao sighed and said.

"Then Chen Fuding will hold on to it, and you can send a letter to Yuanhang as soon as possible." Zhan Hu said anxiously.

"Well, it looks like I can't go there on the voyage." Situ Hao said regretfully. has only one daughter, but she can't be there when she gets married.

"Let's think about it first and help Yuanhang escape this catastrophe." Zhan Hu shook his head and said.

"Young master, there's a letter from Jingzhou." Tang Ling handed the letter to the voyage. Yuanhang put down Hai Dongqing in his hand and took the letter.

"Haha, Du Heizi has already opened a Jingwei dart game in Jingzhou." Yuanhang said with a smile.

"Young master, someone came to say that he would take Du Lao back to Jingzhou." Tang Ling said softly.

Yuanhang sighed for a moment, looked at Hai Dongqing on the ground, and asked, "Do they listen to you now?" ”

"Hmm." Tang Ling nodded vigorously.

"Since you can, then let Du Lao go back." Yuanhang thought for a moment and said.

"My lord, Lord Situ Hao of the back hall sent someone to deliver a letter." A subordinate ran to deliver the letter.

Yuanhang took it and opened it, and after reading it, he put the letter paper into his arms with a heavy heart, and instructed Tang Ling: "Take good care of them." After speaking, he walked out of the west courtyard and went straight to the east courtyard.

"Yilan, the store's paperwork is written in Daddy Chen's name, right?" Yuanhang asked, sitting at the table.

"Yes, it was written as you told me." Yilan poured tea for the voyage and said.

"Well, that's fine." looked up at Yilan and said softly: "Your father has a letter, and we may not be able to come when we get married." ”

Yilan didn't speak after hearing this, lowered her head and sat down gently, and said, "If my father doesn't come, there must be something big." ”

"Well, Chen Fu will refer to me in front of the emperor. The uncle said that the emperor was angry, and he could not come at this time. Yuanhang took a sip of tea and said.

Yilan raised her head, looked at the voyage, and asked with concern, "But what about getting married?" ”

"Hmm." Yuanhang nodded and said.

"Do you have a complete solution?" Yilan asked.

Yuanhang sneered and said, "Brake quietly." ”

Yilan immediately smiled lightly and continued: "See the move." ”

The two of them looked at each other and laughed together.
