Chapter 542: Crooked

readx;

The fifth day of the fifth month of the fifth month of Xining, the Dragon Boat Festival!

In the wee hours of the morning, a lot of strange things happened. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 At the beginning of the time, the eldest son of the Marquis of Weiyuan was born; Almost at the same time, lightning struck the Funing Hall of the Imperial Palace, and Emperor Zhao Ji was frightened and fell ill. During this period, the people of Bianjing vaguely saw the black dragon rising into the sky in the rain curtain!

The torrential rain continued, and the officials got up early, and they were all willing to go out in the rain.

It's raining!

Wang Anshi's resignation is inevitable, they just want to witness such a grand occasion with their own eyes, and see how Wang Xianggong left in disgrace!

But when I arrived at the palace, I heard that the court meeting had been canceled, and even the celebration of the Dragon Boat Festival had been canceled. What's with? After a little inquiry, the faces of the officials changed!

Lightning struck the Funing Palace, and the official family was frightened and sick!

From a physical point of view, open or high-lying buildings are susceptible to lightning strikes, so later generations of taller buildings were equipped with lightning rods.

Unfortunately, there were no such installations in ancient buildings, but there were not many tall buildings in those days, and the only tall buildings were mainly concentrated in the imperial palace. It is precisely because of this that it has become the main target of lightning.

For example, the Taihe Hall of the Ming Dynasty in later generations was damaged by lightning strikes and fires many times, and it has been renovated many times before and after.

In this day and age, lightning disasters are almost inevitable!

But the world doesn't think so, in this era of feudal superstition, pay attention to the induction of heaven and man, and lightning strikes often represent God's damnation! If someone is killed by lightning, they must have done something good. In the famous opera "Qingfeng Pavilion", the unfilial son Zhang Jibao was struck by lightning and died.

What if the lightning struck the palace instead? Everyone will probably wonder if the royal family is not doing good deeds? The emperor has no way, so he will attract the curse of heaven? In particular, the lightning struck the Funing Hall of the Emperor's Bedroom. This seems more revealing.

It's definitely a first-class event!

The reason why Zhao Ji vomited blood and fell to the ground, in addition to being frightened, was more because he thought of this, too much pressure, and was caused by anger and heart!

The official family is sick. But it's not too important that the word is spread in the palace!

The hundred officials naturally understood what the situation was, and after conveying their condolences to the officials, the officials all left in a low-key manner, but they were not disappointed!

Wang Anshi's resignation is a foregone conclusion, and it may end even worse!

It rained last night. It proves that Wang Anshi's change of law to bring disaster to the country and the people is against the sky. The reason why lightning struck the Funing Hall was that this was God's punishment for the officials.

No, it should be said to be a warning.

Heaven wants the official family to depose Wang Anshi! Many people are thinking in their hearts that if it weren't for the previous suspension of Wang Anshi's position as prime minister, he would still be stubborn. I'm afraid that the official family will be directly hacked to death last night! Of course, the officials only thought like this in their hearts, and everyone knew that no one dared to declare the big rebellious words.

The official family naturally understands this truth, and I heard that he is still in a coma. When he wakes up, what will happen to Wang Anshi?

It is light, and it is not impossible to raid the family and exterminate the family!

I heard that Wang Anshi's son was frightened by thunder and lightning last night and was seriously ill and bedridden, what kind of rhythm is this? It must be a loss to do too much!

The rain in Bianjing was still falling, but the mood of the old party officials was particularly bright, of course, except for the official family who was sick and a little anxious, everything else was schadenfreude.

The officials of the New Party were all in danger, and the Funing Hall was struck by lightning. It is a warning and punishment from God for dissatisfaction with the change of the law, and this point has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

I heard that Wang Yan was sick, and in the past, they would visit the Wang family as soon as possible, but today they are afraid to avoid it. But. There are always exceptions, such as Lu Huiqing, who came out of the palace and went to the Wang family's mansion in the rain. He is a smart man, is Wang Anshi a plague god now? Not necessarily!

Wang Yan blew cold wind all night, rained, and most importantly, suffered a huge blow, and his condition became more and more serious. Ever since he fainted in the rain last night, he has been in a coma. In the middle of the night, several doctors jointly treated me, and I woke up after the morning!

"Madam, what is your will to the house?" The first thing Wang Yan said when he woke up was this, which shows how much he misses something.

"Nope!" Mrs. Wang's eyes were red and swollen like walnuts, and she didn't know how many tears she shed last night!

"Is there any news on that?"

"No, it's raining outside and no one is going out!" Mrs. Wang said anxiously: "Husband, don't think about anything else, the doctor has instructed you, and your husband should have a good life and recuperate!" ”

"It's raining!" Wang Yan sneered, as for the word recuperation, the word "recuperation" was completely ignored.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang shook her head again and again, tears couldn't help but gush out, and she was afraid that her husband would be sad to see it, so she hurriedly got up to avoid it, and when she went out, she happened to meet Lu Huiqing, who was visiting!

"Brother and sister, how is Yuan Ze?" Lu Huiqing is a student of Wang Anshi, and she is very familiar with Mrs. Wang, so she will not avoid suspicion.

"Please also ask the eldest brother to persuade Yuan Ze well, the condition is not very serious, the doctor said that he can be cured by resting, but Yuan Ze he ...... "Little Mrs. Wang is like grasping a life-saving straw, please help this senior brother."

Lu Huiqing understood as soon as she heard it, nodded again and again, and after saying goodbye to Mrs. Wang, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth!

There is a good saying - take advantage of your illness and kill you!

"Yuan Ze, are you okay?" After entering the house, Lu Huiqing's face was instantly full of concern.

When Wang Yan saw Lu Huiqing, he was very excited, and hurriedly struggled to get up and asked, "Brother Jifu, what's the situation outside?" ”

"Yuan Ze don't worry, everything is fine, the top priority is to calm down and recuperate!" When Lu Huiqing saw this situation, he knew even more in his heart, and at the same time, he was also very good at the art of wanting to capture and indulge!

"Brother Jifu will tell me the truth, right? Otherwise, how can I have peace of mind? Wang Yan did not suspect Lu Huiqing's motives, but asked with a little pleading.

Lu Huiqing hesitated for a moment, the expression on his face seemed to be struggling, and only after Wang Yan's constant urging did he say: "The official family has not been to the court today, so there is nothing to do for the time being!" ”

"Didn't go to court? How so? Wang Yan had a hint of luck in his heart, could it be that he became an official or decided to defend his father, and dropped out of the dynasty to confront hundreds of officials?

It's a pity that Lu Huiqing's words completely shattered his extravagant hopes and sent him into the cold abyss!

"Last night...... Last night......" Lu Huiqing stumbled: "Last night, lightning struck Funing Palace, and the official family was almost killed, but fortunately the guards rescued him to get out of danger; However, he was too frightened and was sick in bed at the moment, so he ...... Never went to court! ”

"Ahh

Wang Yan was so smart that he thought of it with the officials in a flash, and his eyes were instantly full of horror, and he collapsed on the bed weakly, his face like ashes.

Lu Huiqing comforted: "Yuan Ze don't think about it more, the matter may not be so serious, you take care of your illness, I will discuss countermeasures with the boss!" ”

"Everything has Brother Laojifu!" Wang Yan reluctantly said this, and then coughed repeatedly, and his condition undoubtedly worsened.

Little Madam Wang, who came in a hurry, inevitably had some resentment towards Brother Lu, but Lu Huiqing whispered to her: "Yuan Ze is smart, hide it, he will be suspicious constantly, with his intelligence, he may not be unexpected." It's better to tell him honestly, it's better to get through it! ”

There seemed to be some truth in this, and Mrs. Wang didn't doubt Lu Huiqing's motives, so she just nodded lightly and went to take care of Wang Yan.

Lu Huiqing laughed secretly in her heart, Wang Yan is smart, but his mind is limited, whether he can hold up this encounter depends on creation! Then I went to the study to meet Wang Anshi, and there were too many things to foreshadow!

That's right, pave the way for yourself!

"I've seen the Boss!"

"Jifu, come and see Yuanze?" Wang Anshi sat on the chair in the study, like an old monk in a meditation, and did not open his eyes until Lu Huiqing entered the door.

"Yes!"

"What else?" Wang Anshi knew very well that Lu Huiqing must have another purpose when he could come to see him.

"Boss, there are some things that the student thinks should tell you, ...... lightning struck last night," Lu Huiqing said what happened last night.

"What? Do you think that this matter is caused by the old man? Wang Anshi is stubborn, but he is not stupid, so he naturally understands the meaning.

"It's all speculation and villain's nonsense!" Lu Huiqing hurriedly expressed her attitude, hesitated for a moment and said: "However, there is a way that three people become tigers, and now rumors are spreading. Furthermore, will the officials believe it? Dowager...... Will even the Empress Dowager believe it? ”

The emperor was frightened and bedridden, endangering the dragon's body, and the matter was even more serious!

No matter how calm Wang Anshi is, he can't sit still at the moment, the matter is no longer him, and the emperor can no longer control it! Not to mention the pressure of hundreds of officials, it is estimated that the two noble old ladies in the palace will also be mad this time, and it will never be as simple as crying anymore!

"What do you think, Jifu?" Wang Anshi was shaken, and in the face of reality, he had to retreat.

Lu Huiqing was overjoyed in his heart, which was the second purpose of his coming today, but he restrained his emotions well, hesitated for a moment, and said: "You can't give up halfway when you change the law, and you want to come to the official family to save it; If you don't have to worry about running out of firewood, if the student says something inappropriate, will the elder consider protecting himself for the next day? ”

The meaning of these words couldn't be clearer, if it were someone else, Lu Huiqing would say it so bluntly, I'm afraid there would be no good fruit! But people are different, Wang Anshi has always trusted Lu Huiqing and regarded him as a good student and helper. Seeing him like this, I felt that he was sincere! Especially today, there are many people, so the old students are the only ones who come to the door, and Wang Xianggong naturally looks at it differently!

"I'll think about it!"

Wang Anshi was shaken, that was enough, he knew what to do!

Seeing this, Lu Huiqing said goodbye and left, leaving the Wang family's mansion, the rain had weakened a little, and the water level in the river had risen a lot. As a bachelor of Hanlin, Lu Huiqing is very proud, he knows that it won't be long before his status will be like this in front of him - a rising tide lifts all boats!

After walking a short distance, he suddenly heard a commotion in front of him, and Lu Huiqing in the car asked, "What happened?" ”

The coachman who drove the horse said: "Lang Jun, it is the common people who are sacrificing to the Dragon King!" I heard that last night someone saw the black dragon out of the Bianhe River, the clouds and rain, and the sky rained, so the people came to thank them! (To be continued.)
