Dark clouds rolled in the gray sky, thunder roared, and downpour rain poured down. Outside the east side hall of the Jinxiang Hall in the rain curtain of the pen fun www.biquge.info pavilion, the roof raindrops are noisy, the eaves of the corridor are tiled, the crystal clear water curtain pours like a waterfall, splashes down in the water tank outside the white marble moire stone carving guardrail, raises a string of water splashes, rushes to the drainage ditch under the pedestal, overflows the square is full of water.

Fu Yanqing was dressed in a purple robe, wearing a mourning crown on his head, standing in front of the hall with his hands behind his back and looking into the distance, his slightly squinted eyes were full of loneliness. The seventeen-year-old queen mother was dressed in plain clothes and scarves, and the palace maid stood at the door of the main hall with her support, covering her mouth and choking quietly.

The seven-year-old little emperor Zong Xun also leaned on his mother's side in filial piety clothes, looking at the strings of water droplets under the eaves of the porch, wanting to catch water and have fun, but no one spoke, and the little children also felt the strangeness of the atmosphere. The inner attendant ordered Yang Sicheng to stand aside with a few inner attendants, although the queen mother and the official family were young, but with this old Wei king, the inner servants did not dare to take it lightly.

In the side hall, Fan Zhen, Wang Pu, Wei Renpu, Han Tong, and Yuan Yan were all there, and Wang Pu was missing, and several people had solemn faces, their eyes and noses, their noses and hearts, and they were silent.

"Come out! It's almost noon, don't wait any longer, Wang Wenbo is sick and on leave, Zhang Yuanzhen is simply serving the woman at home, what else to discuss! Fu Yanqing sighed, waved his sleeves, looked up at the gloomy sky, his eyelids fluttered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"It's been seven days, neither going to court nor asking about things, it's really unusual, do they still have loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness in their hearts?" Fan Zhen stomped his feet angrily, with a black old face, and his words were full of resentment.

"You go to Wang Wenbo's house to visit the sick, and invite someone over in the afternoon! This Duke Qin is so majestic, the old man wants to go and see it! Fu Yanqing shook the sleeves of his robe angrily, took the umbrella from the hand of the inner attendant, strode down the imperial steps, and rushed into the rain.

A short distance outside the Donghua Gate, the hem of the robe was already soaked, Fu Yanqing didn't care about this, hurriedly got into the carriage until the south of the city, and soon arrived outside the gate of the Qin Mansion, let the coachman go to the front to call the door, Fu Yanqing got out of the car by himself to follow, and it happened that the porter opened the door, and saw that it was a distinguished guest who was about to go in to report, Fu Yanqing grabbed it, snorted coldly, and strode in.

The porter glanced at the carriage outside, and although the flag was soaked, there was still a Wei character appearing, and he immediately shouted in shock: "King Wei has arrived!" Hurry up and meet Ah Lang! ”

It's a pity that the wind is howling outside, and the soybean-like raindrops are beating on the roof tiles, and the whole courtyard is noisy, and no one can hear it. Fu Yanqing had a calm face, strode into the gate and the second gate, and looked around in the middle hall, the windows inside were bright and clean, and the curtains were floating lightly, but there was no one in sight.

Just as he was spontaneously fluting, a young maid appeared at the door, her hands crossed on her hips, and her mask was frosty: "Who are you? Uninvited, is this the place you can break into? ”

"Where is Zhang Yuanzhen, call him out!" Fu Yanqing was furious, what is the identity of a little maidservant, and she dares to reprimand when she sees the guests, what kind of decency is it.

"Wait! Don't run around! The servant girl softened her breath slightly, folded her hands and squatted down to make a blessing salute, turned around and went quickly.

At this time, on the north hall of the back house, Fu Jinqiong was sitting in front of the screen doing needlework, glancing at Zhang Yuezheng and Bian Yu from time to time, they were playing leaf play, and the three children were chattering and frolicking around the side, but the others did not come.

"Alang! Oh no, an old man in a purple robe broke into the middle hall directly, it looks like a nobleman, but it's fierce, you better go and have a look! Huang Ying hurried in and shouted.

"Whatever, there are often people who force themselves to break into the door these days, let's hang it for a while!" Zhang Yue sat still and didn't move, and continued to deal cards in his hand. It is also a coincidence that since he saw the car of King Wei driving into Beijing that day, Zhang Yue guessed that this old man came to Beijing, most likely to mediate and repair the relationship between the parties, so he simply used various excuses to push and take leave and not go to court.

But within two days, I heard that Wang Pu was also sick at home and did not go to the privy council, and secretly thought that there might be something between them that could not be discussed. Soon, Li Tao, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Bian Guangfan, the waiter of the Ministry of Households, came to the door one after another to express their goodwill, and took the initiative to reveal the news of why Wang Pu was sick.

"Humph! What a pleasure! Do you still have a court in your eyes? A tall figure appeared in the doorway, and snorted coldly with black lines on his head.

"Wow...... What a beautiful white beard too! Zhang Yue and Fu Jinqiong in the hall were taken aback, looking at each other head-on, Weiwei and Xuan'er clapped their little hands and shouted with a grin.

Fu Yanqing recognized his niece at a glance, and his peaceful and smiling demeanor comforted him for a while, it can be seen that Zhang Yue was actually playing leaf play with his concubine, and he was suddenly angry, and the innocent laughter of the two little girls blocked him full of anger, and he couldn't help but flick the sleeves of his robe and turn around and go out, standing under the eaves of the porch and waiting.

"Unknown uncle is coming, I missed the distance, please forgive me!" Fu Jinqiong hurriedly got up and came over with Zhang Yue to salute.

"Alright, alright! Yuanzhen, come out, the old man has something to tell you......" Glancing at his niece, Fu Yanqing waved his hand, turned his head to look at Zhang Yue, and his eyes gradually became stern.

"Speaking of which, the fourth uncle is still the first time to come to the door, and the son-in-law is flattered!" Zhang Yue smiled, his eyes flickered, and his mind turned, although he was his wife's fourth uncle in front of him, he was also the dignified King of Wei, the grandfather of the emperor, but if he made himself subordinate to others, then there was no need to say more.

People are in troubled times, and my life is up to me.

Zhang Yue said again: "Although the middle hall is good, the dry sound is very loud, but the study is more elegant, what is the intention of the fourth uncle?" ”

Fu Yanqing was stunned, and scolded in his heart: What a boy, I haven't seen my wings harden for a few years, and I dare to test the old man, how can this be true? But after thinking about it, it's better to study it, and some words still can't be passed on to outsiders.

。。。。。。。。。

At the same time, Fan Zhen and Han Tong and other five people appeared outside the gate of Wang Pu's mansion in a carriage, and a young man in a round-necked green robe came out to open the door to greet him, bowing down to salute, and his words were full of worry.

"My father beat his chest and cried day and night, saying that he should not have said early to let the first emperor establish a prince, so as to cause today's situation, crying and actually took off his robe and hung on the top of the beam, wanting to follow the first emperor, fortunately the old servant found it in time, and the younger generation knocked on the door to be saved, these days without saying a word, sighing every day, how to be good!" This young man is the second son of Wang Pu, named Wang Xu, and his father is a worship official in the west, but he only receives a salary, and does not actually hold his position.

When they heard this, they were shocked, and they all turned their heads to look at Fan Zhen, but the old man looked resolute, as if he hadn't seen it, he was unmoved, let out a heavy nasal voice, and walked in with his hands behind his back.

A few people entered Wang Pu's bedroom, Wang Xu walked in front, quickly opened the doors and windows, moved a low couch and invited a few people to sit down. Fan Zhen looked into the couch raised by the curtain, Wang Pu was wearing a middle coat, half-covering the quilt and lying facing inward, obviously moving his hands and feet, but he didn't hear the voices of several people.

"O Wenbo! Don't you know that you are sick of heart, why do you have to do this, even if the situation is all kinds of hardships and dangers, you and I have to tide over the difficulties together, as long as you live these years, there will always be a time when the hardships will come. Of course, Fan Zhen knew the dissatisfaction in Wang Pu's heart, and persuaded him softly.

On the day when the King of Wei arrived in Beijing, Fan Zhen met with several important ministers of Tuogu, and talked about the current situation, Wang Pu actually proposed in front of several people: wait for the coffin of the first emperor to go down the mountain, issue an amnesty, and add the seal Yuanzhen as the king of Beiping County, enter the middle book order, and participate in political affairs.

Before Fu Yanqing could say anything, Fan Zhen's face changed greatly, and he jumped up suddenly, yelling and refusing sternly. Not to mention martial artists like Zhang Yue, even if Wenchen such as Wei Renpu, Li Tao, Bian Guangfan and others were vetoed into the prime minister, how could he agree. It's not that he doesn't understand, the current situation is different, giving great benefits to make Wei Wang Zhou spin around, and shackle Zhang Yuanzhen to the young lord of Beijing, driving the tiger and devouring the wolf, how can a Zhao Yuanlang be enough.

But in this way, the distance between the dynasties is very bad, and in the future, the martial artist will be crowned the king and worship the prime minister, if something happens, who can control it? Even if nothing happens, Wufu is pressed on the head of the civil official. Finally, since the Taizu sacrifice to the Confucian Temple, the status of the scholars and doctors has gradually improved, and once they are stepped on again, not only can Fan Zhen not accept it, but many civil officials in the world will have complaints, and he Fan Zhen himself and the ministers will have to bear the infamy, and they are not people inside and outside.

"If you act like this, we will be bitter and happy, he Zhang Yuanzhen will be ruined sooner or later, do you think that in today's world, such martial artists can be called at will?" Wang Pu turned over and sat up, and pointed at Fan Zhen with an angry face: "Fan Wensu, Fan Wensu, how can you be virtuous, you have been in charge of the phase for nearly ten years, and you are such a mind, how can you do great things." The emperor's good testamentary strategy made a mess for you, how can you bear it? ”

"The times are wrong, the first emperor went too fast, is it someone's fault? Moved to Lanzhou Xuanchongwen Town Dengzhou Wusheng, he Zhang Yuanzhen can get gold to fill the deficit, but the court wants to cancel the armor workshop, can it really be done? You didn't see Wang Yanchao start to say that he was sick and didn't go, but suddenly he went and there was no news, why is this? He Jurun went all the way slowly, and when he arrived in Shaanzhou, he simply asked him to return to the DPRK with his illness, so what could he do? Fan Zhen was in a complicated mood, although he was accused by Wang Pu like this, he also endured it.

"The two ministers are angry, and don't argue anymore, this will not solve the problem. He Zhang Yuanzhen finally took care of the overall situation and didn't mess around, but Zhao Yuanlang was about to return to Beijing, and the two had a dispute when they were in Youzhou, how can they clean up if something happens again? To put it mildly, up to now, without Zhang Yuanzhen's nod, the two armies of the Guards Division can not be moved in a big way. Han Tong was also very worried in his heart, some time ago, he beat the two military envoys who made trouble, and many officers spontaneously came to intercede, which made him tremble.

"That's it! The tail is too big to fall off! You can't move, but you can't let it go! There is also the front division of the palace, that Zhao Yuanlang is also far-reaching, and the first emperor found out too late! Yuan Yan also has no good way, he and Han Tong agree with Wang Pu's opinion, but Fan Zhen, Wang Pu, and Wei Renpu are still difficult to decide.

Wang Pu scolded a few words, lay down again and never said a word, deaf to the discussions of several people. Fan Zhen lowered his head and exchanged glances with Wang Pu and the others, but it was still difficult to make up his mind.
