Chapter 222: Xigong Han [I]

In June, summer has come to an end, but there is still a heat wave.

The breeze is blowing, the wicker is swinging, and the sound is not stopped.

Yang Shufei was wearing a green skirt, a light red armor, and a tulle fan in her hand, sitting in the gazebo. On the opposite side stood a low-eyed eunuch in Tsing Yi, a person in Tsing Yi, an official robe! This is already an official body. Eunuchs are not as good as civil officials, and their official positions are very low, taking Yan Wenying, the great eunuch in the palace, as an example, but he is the official body of the sixth grade.

Just from this scene, it can be seen that the two of them are definitely not resting here, and there are Yang Shufei's henchmen Gong'e and eunuchs around them.

Yang Shufei asked leisurely: "Xu Chengan! Are things well prepared? ”

This eunuch is Zhao Yu's close eunuch Xu Chengan in the palace, and he has a younger brother who serves under Yang Shufei, so he is naturally close to Zhao Yu.

Hearing Yang Shufei's inquiry, Xu Chen obviously had a draft in his heart, and without blinking his eyelids, he replied: "Don't worry, little lady, in a few days it will be the court meeting, because we have to discuss the summer harvest this year, so at the court meeting, those old ministers will come." The little lady took out the will of the Empress Dowager Ming Su at the court meeting, and even if the official family was dissatisfied, she had to temporarily obey the little lady! ”

When Concubine Yang Shu heard this, she paused, sighed, looked at the willow branches swaying in the wind, and recited the famous poem of Cao Zhi, one of the seven sons of Jian'an. "Boiled beans are used as soup, and soaked beans are used as juice; The beans are burning under the kettle, and the beans are crying in the kettle; This is born from the same root, why is it too anxious to fry each other! ”

Xu Chengan sighed: "I didn't expect the official family to be so ruthless, after listening to the words of Lu Yi Jian, he wanted the king of Changsha to send an envoy to Liao and secretly contact the Heishui Jurchens." It is already very dangerous to send an envoy to the Liao State, I heard that the Western Xia is about to move, so there is the Liao State behind the back, in case the Liao State wants to go south again, the king of Changsha will go, wouldn't it be to send sheep into the tiger's mouth? Not to mention contacting those Blackwater Jurchens, once discovered, the corpses of the five horses will be light! The official family is borrowing a knife to kill people! ”

Yang Shufei shook her head and was silent, if she didn't know about this situation, Yang Shufei would not have taken the risk of taking out the edict left by the Empress Dowager (Liu E) of Zhang Xianming and Mingsu (Liu E) to compete for power and profit with Song Renzong. In the final analysis, it's not that Song Renzong is going to let Zhao Yu send an envoy, this matter is causing trouble!

…… Xiangguofu ......

The back garden is full of green bamboo, although it is summer, just entered the back garden, but there is still a quiet atmosphere in the face.

Lu Yijian, who was wearing white civilian clothes, was leisurely learning the five bird opera with an old Taoist priest, with elegant movements and a smell of dust. At this time, a chaotic sound of footsteps suddenly sounded, and Lu Yijian frowned slightly.

The old Taoist priest paused, and said to Lu Yijian: "It seems that Lu Jushi is going to be haunted by red dust in the near future!" The poor road is now retired! ”

Lu Yijian said: "Immortal Master, please stay, it's just some miscellaneous matters, and the old man will deal with it quickly!" These five poultry plays, the old man loves them deeply, and I hope that the immortal master will give more guidance! ”

Although the old Taoist priest smiled, he shook his head and said: "The poor Dao has already pinched his fingers, and then look at the face of Lu Jushi, there must be a big event today, and the poor Dao can't be kept!" ”

Although Lu Yijian was skeptical, he still kept it. The old Taoist priest saw that there was no way, so he stood with a wry smile.

Sure enough, two people came from the corner of the bamboo forest, one of them was the old housekeeper of Lu Yijian's family, this was nothing, the problem was that the other person, a low-level eunuch in costume, looked delicate, and looked only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Lu Yijian's heart jumped, don't look at the young age of this little eunuch, but he recognized this person as Yan Wenying's youngest son. The parents at home love their young sons, and this Yan Wenying is not exempt from this cheesiness, and he loves this little righteous son very much. At this time, he came from the mansion, and Yan Wenying must have been assigned, and looking at his anxious face, he was afraid that Yan Wenying had discovered something great in the palace.

Lu Yijian was shocked in his heart, and said to the old Taoist: "Immortal Master is really a god, I don't know what the old man's future is?" ”

The old Taoist priest moved away and let Lu Yijian salute. But he didn't refuse Lu Yijian's request, he looked at Lu Yijian's face with blazing eyes, pinched his fingers, but in the blink of an eye, his face suddenly changed.

Seeing this, Lu Yijian couldn't help but show a little shocked look on his face. "Immortal Master, how's it going?"

However, it is inevitable that there are some doubts in my heart, is this method of peeping into the heavens so fast?

The old Taoist priest looked at Lu Yijian's eyes, and also knew Lu Yijian's heart, but he didn't care much, sighed and said: "There is no danger, it's just ...... Alas! That's it! That's it! ”

As he spoke, the old Taoist priest walked outside, Lu Yijian called a few times, and the old Taoist priest didn't pay attention to it, at this time the little eunuch was already close. Lu Yijian had to put the old Taoist priest aside for the time being.

The little eunuch stepped forward, and although he was curious about the old Taoist priest, he hurriedly told the matter. "Lu Xianggong, something is wrong! Your plan to let the King of Changsha envoy to Liao was known to the little lady. The little lady is ready to meddle in this matter, and she wants to take out the will of the Empress Dowager Mingsu to force the official family to comply! ”

Even if Lu Yijian said that the city was good, when he heard this, he couldn't help but change his face slightly. As Song Renzong's most trusted minister, Lu Yijian naturally knew that Song Renzong's weakness was there, and his ears were soft! Especially for relatives, otherwise Zhao Yu's sectarian order would not have been successful.

If Concubine Yang Shu came forward, although Song Renzong, who had always been filial, was dissatisfied, most of them would still submit in the end. Although Yang Shufei's handling of state affairs will set off a lot of opposition from the government and the opposition, he knows that what Yang Shufei wants is not power, but for his son Zhao Yu, the king of Changsha. This period of time is enough to suppress Lu Yijian!

Although Lu Yijian can be used again after being demoted, this will at least have to be silenced for a while. And even if it is used again, there will be another stain on this career. Why is it degraded, famous virtues are at a loss. And during this time, Lu Yijian knew more about how many people he had offended, and he was afraid that they would not give him a chance to use it again.

Not to mention anything else, Yin Fan Zhongyan of Kaifeng Prefecture, Kong Daofu in Yushizhong, Yang Kai, Hezhong Governor, etc., have very opinions about themselves, and even a few ministers are afraid that they have a lot of complaints about themselves being so strong.

Thinking about it, Lu Yijian couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"Lu Xianggong! Lu Xianggong! Seeing Lu Yijian's ugly face, the little eunuch was silent for a long time, but he was so young that he couldn't help but be anxious, and called out repeatedly.

Lu Yijian took a deep breath, barely made her face look better, showed an ugly smile, and said, "Your father can say it, when is the little lady going to come up with the will?" ”

Although the little eunuch was in a hurry, it was not bad to remember his surname, but after a little hesitation, he remembered and said: "Daddy said that it was the court meeting two days later, because the matter of the summer harvest was to be discussed, and some old ministers who were sick at home would also go to the court. Daddy said, the little lady probably wants to be so more sure of the following, the old ministers are all nostalgic people, although most of them will support it! ”

Lu Yijian couldn't imagine that Concubine Yang Shufei was silent and silent, and she actually had such political wisdom. It's just that the time is so short, it's only two days, how can this be good?

For a while, even though Lu Yijian had rich political experience, he couldn't think of a good way, so he said helplessly: "You go back first, and tell your father, in the past two days, looking for a chance to get out of the palace, it's really not possible, just find a time to meet in the palace!" ”

The little eunuch wrote it down attentively, nodded his head, and asked: "I have already written it down, such a young one has retired, and he has been out of the palace for a while, and I am afraid that it will arouse the suspicion of people who have a heart if it is too late!" ”

Lu Yijian nodded, and asked the old housekeeper to give the little eunuch ten times, and the little eunuch did not refuse.

After a while, the old butler suddenly returned.

Lu Yijian asked, "What's wrong?" In a hurry? ”

The old housekeeper said: "Something strange happened, the old Taoist priest who treated him politely suddenly left silently, and what is even more strange is that the next person came to report, and the gift and money sent by the old man were not taken, and they were all left in the room, just took the cloth clothes he brought with him!" ”

Lu Yijian was shocked, what the hell is going on? He knew that this old Taoist priest had great power, so although he was a prime minister, he still did not neglect him at all, and he treated him with courtesy.

Thinking that it seemed to have the ability to foresee heavenly opportunities, Lu Yijian's heart couldn't help but be shrouded in a layer of haze. Could it be that he saw Yang Shufei win this time? It shouldn't be!

Although the old Taoist priest is gone, Lu Yijian is still confident that he knows the old Taoist priest's personality, he just said that he is in danger this time, so there must be nothing wrong. It's just why did it go?

Although he couldn't figure it out, Lu Yijian could only say helplessly: "You can keep the money for the time being, don't move the things in the immortal master's room, and you can't send someone to clean it every time." ”

The old butler couldn't help but ask, "Master, have you forgotten what to say?" ”

Lu Yijian glanced at the old housekeeper suspiciously, and said, "Forgot? What do you think the old man forgot to say? ”

The old butler replied, "The master forgot to send someone to find the old Taoist!" ”

When Lu Yijian heard this, he shook his head and said with emotion: "That's the immortal master, he wants to hide from the old man, no matter how many people the old man faction is, it is useless!" Just hope ......"

Speaking of this, Lu Yijian didn't know why, suddenly stopped his mouth, shook his head and said, "That's it!" Tell my wife to eat dinner by herself tonight, and the old man will stay in the study! ”

The old butler said yes and retired.

…… Palace......

June 3rd

Because the time was too tight, Yan Wenying did not find a gap to go out, and Lu Yijian had no choice but to take the risk of meeting Yan Wenying in the palace. One is the most trusted minister of the Son of Heaven, and the other is the great eunuch who serves by the side of the Son of Heaven. If they were encountered, Lu Yijian and Yan Wenying would definitely lose their holy family.

But at this point, Lu Yijian and Yan Wenying had no choice, no matter how dangerous it was, they had to risk meeting each other. (To be continued.) )
