Chapter 344: The Imperial City (6)
Yan Wu did as she said, and just as she was preparing the invitation, Fang Yaqing suddenly changed her mind. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"No need to send it."
"Huh?"
"I thought about it, but it's better not to show up." Fang Yaqing shook her head. "Li Qianshan's relationship with our family is still unknown, if I come forward, although I can protect him, but his relationship with the Fang family has also been exposed, but it is easy to make people embankment, and it will not be of much use in the future. A useless Shuntian Mansion Yin, it is useless to protect him. ”
"But people can't help it, if we don't say anything, wouldn't it be chilling?"
"So be it." Fang Yaqing thought for a while and said, "You ask the Cheng family to prepare a generous gift and go to the Zhou Mansion for a trip, it is best to settle it with money." In addition, he managed to send someone to inform Li Qianshan and let him be soft, it was not a big deal, and when Zhou Ang was smooth, the matter would pass. Gong Xi's case, we still don't get our hands dirty, at this juncture, there is no need to provoke that mad dog. ”
Fang Yaqing made the final decision, and at the same time, Ji Qiyun of the East Palace of the Imperial City was also furious about this matter.
took down Shuntian Mansion Yin on his own initiative, although Zhou Ang did things neatly, but he was a little apprehensive in his heart. After sending Li Qianshan to prison, he immediately entered the palace to see Ji Qiyun. When he came to the East Palace, Ji Qiyun was sitting opposite the table with Liu Fengzi, drinking and chatting.
Hearing what Zhou Ang said, Ji Qiyun was stunned at first, then suddenly got up, pointed at his nose and scolded. "Shuncheon Mansion Yin? You took down Shuntianfu Yin? Zhou Ang, you are getting bolder and bolder, you don't even ask for the consent of the palace in advance for such a big thing! Heh, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid that it won't be long before Lord Zhou should send Bengong to prison. ”
This remark was very heart-wrenching, Zhou Ang's face suddenly turned pale, and he sneered. "Why did Your Highness say this, the villain would never dare."
"Your Highness, Xiao Ang is indeed a little impulsive this time, thinking that he is young, you must not worry about him." Liu Fengzi hurriedly put down the wine glass, stood up and opened his mouth to make a round.
Ji Qiyun's face eased slightly, but his tone was still extremely dissatisfied. "This palace warned you at the beginning, the six departments and military officials must not be easily touched, how many pairs of eyes are staring at the entire Great Zhou? The forces of all parties are intricate, and once they get involved, they will become the public enemies of the imperial court if they are not careful. Although the Shuntian Mansion is not among the six ministries, it also has inextricable interests with the yamen of various ministries, how can it be said that you can take it? ”
"With Your Majesty's support, Your Highness, what are you afraid of." Zhou Ang's attitude was deferential, but he obviously didn't agree too much.
Liufengzi immediately glared and said, "Shut up." ”
Zhou Ang shrunk his neck, not daring to say more.
"Do you think that if the emperor is behind the support, you can really be lawless?" Ji Qiyun sneered: "This palace might as well tell you that there are many forces in the Great Zhou that the imperial grandfather does not dare to offend easily, and in those important positions, no one can be sure which officials will have a relationship with them, if you continue to disobey the advice of the palace, sooner or later you will provoke people who should not be provoked and cannot be provoked, let alone the palace, even the imperial grandfather will not be able to protect you." Killing you is no different from slaughtering a dog. ”
Zhou Ang finally knew that he was afraid, and hurriedly asked, "Then what should the villain do now?" People are caught. ”
Ji Qiyun was silent for a moment, thought for a while, and said: "You go home immediately, if the palace estimates well, someone will soon come to the door to intercede for Li Qianshan." You only need to make a little appearance, and then immediately get off the donkey down the slope, and hurry up to release Li Qianshan. ”
Zhou Ang nodded and obediently responded: "Then the villain will go back." ”
"Yes." Ji Qiyun waved his hand. "Remember, the officials of the six ministries should not be easily touched. And also... That Jiang Yun of Honglu Temple, don't provoke him. ”
"Huh? This villain has heard of it, and he planned to rectify him before, but he didn't meet anyone, could His Highness have an old relationship with this person? ”
"This palace can't wait for him to die early!" Ji Qiyun gritted his teeth and said, then shook his head again. "This person is a bit tricky, and it is a critical period for the palace to take over power, so you try to stay away from him."
"The villain obeys." Kowtowed, Zhou Ang cautiously withdrew from the East Palace. As for what Ji Qiyun said, he had forgotten it in the blink of an eye. Knotty? Who else could be more tricky in today's court than him? Is it all others who walk around him, let him hide from others? How could Zhou Ang be convinced, but he made up his mind, and after Song Qing's matter was settled, he immediately dealt with Jiang Yun.
Zhou Ang went home not long ago, and as Ji Qiyun expected, Cheng Xin came to the door with a generous gift. Li Qianshan's wife is Xingu's aunt, and the two families are related, so it is appropriate for the Cheng family to come forward to do things. According to Ji Qiyun's instructions, Zhou Ang pretended to be pretending, and then let him go.
Li Qianshan was released from prison, although he held back a resentment in his heart, he didn't dare to provoke Zhou Ang at this moment, and there would be a second time again, there was no law in the eyes of this mad dog, and he acted according to the emperor's favor, which really couldn't be provoked.
After returning to Shuntian Mansion, Li Qianshan immediately set about withdrawing Song Qing's case, and sent someone to inform him: Gong Xi's case has conclusive evidence and no doubts. Such a reply was like a bolt from the blue for Song Qing. Even Shuntianfu has no ability to intervene, who else in this world can help her? Nope. Seeing the days passing, Song Qing gradually became desperate.
For three days, she did not visit Gong Xi in the prison again, but locked herself in her home and did not go out. It wasn't until the evening of the fourth day that she walked out of her home again, with a pretty face full of absolute color, and walked straight to Zhou's mansion.
Song Qing will definitely come back, Zhou Ang had expected this, but he didn't expect her to come so quickly. It seems that Gong Xi's family does not have any background, and as soon as Shuntianfu rests cooking, she will be poor in donkey skills and desperate.
Zhou Ang loves Song Qing from the bottom of his heart, as the biggest winner, he did not show a domineering posture, and still politely welcomed Song Qing into the living room, and only after serving a cup of tea did he cut to the chase.
"Sister figured it out?"
Song Qing was silent, and her drooping head nodded slightly.
Zhou Ang was overjoyed, hurriedly got up and walked up, held her little hand into the palm of his hand, stared at her and said, "Then you won't leave tonight, right?" ”
Song Qing instinctively wanted to withdraw her hands, but when she thought of Gong Xi, her arms stiffened suddenly, and they gradually softened again. She shook her head firmly and said, "Unless the prince escapes, otherwise... ”
"What's so hard about that?" Zhou Ang immediately shouted loudly: "Someone! ”
After a while, a small house ran into the door.
"Can you write?" Zhou Ang asked.
"Back to the adult, the villain has been in private school for a few years."
"That's good." Zhou Ang pointed to the table beside him. "I say, you write."
Song Qing was concerned in her heart, and listened carefully with her ears pricked up. Zhou Ang's general meaning is that although Gong Xi committed a serious crime, after repeated examination by the Imperial Historical Observatory, it was found that there was indeed a reason. Although Gong Xi's sin is inevitable, it is excusable. Yu Shitai commuted his sentence as appropriate, took his official position according to the order, and deposed him as a citizen. Gong Xi was immediately released, but he needed to be expelled from the capital, and he could not enter the capital for the rest of his life.
After the little guy finished writing, Zhou Ang took out the official seal from his arms, pressed it the paper, and then said: "Take this to the Yushitai prison and do it according to the will of the above." In addition, notify the accounting office, take 10,000 taels of silver, and give it to the prisoner and take it away. ”
Zhou Ang is not a good person, but as a ruffian, he also has all the advantages of a ruffian. Righteousness, commitment, and never repentance of what he said, in this respect alone, most of the officials of the court are much dirtier than him. Turning your face is faster than turning a book, and it is a compulsory course for officials.
"The villain obeys." The little guy answered, hurriedly turned around and ran out.
The same thing is like this, some people can do the same thing even if they risk their lives, but some people only need to say two or three short sentences, but they can do it beautifully. When the little guy ran out with the official documents, Song Qing's nerves, which had been tense for many days, finally relaxed, and the first smile in many days, a relieved smile, appeared on her face.
This is the first time Zhou Ang has seen her smile, the so-called lover's eyes are out of Xi Shi, and there is nothing more shameful than this when he smiles. He swallowed his saliva and stepped forward. "Satisfied?"
"Yes."
Zhou Anglang smiled, unceremoniously picked her up by the waist, and went straight to the bedroom.
Song Qing put her head against his chest and didn't dare to raise it, and two lines of tears slipped quietly.
