Yu Guizhi's cramped and uneasy expression had betrayed everything.

The displeasure in Pan Zisu's brow flashed.

"I just asked casually, it's not early, Sister Guizhi should rest early, and we'll talk tomorrow morning."

Pan Zisu pretended not to be aware of it, and politely gave the order to expel the guest.

Yu Guizhi was panicking in her heart, wishing that she would be like this, so she was busy telling her to cover the quilt at night and something like that, so she pretended to retreat calmly.

As soon as Fang went out, Yu Guizhi let out a long breath and muttered, "Fortunately, she didn't see any signs, otherwise I really don't know how to fulfill this lie." ”

She was relieved, and then looked into her room.

But he didn't know that at this time, Pan Zisu was standing sideways by the window, looking at Yu Guizhi's secretly happy demeanor, the corners of Pan Zisu's mouth couldn't help but pout slightly.

In the front hall over there, Shi Wei was chatting with Fan Ruoshui about business.

"Brother Shi, according to what you say, Your Majesty has really made up his mind and plans to move the capital to Luoyang?"

Fan Ruoshui came from Bianjing, and he was not a high-level official, so he didn't know much about what happened in Luoyang.

Shi Wei nodded and smiled: "I said Ruoshui, you can't just keep your head down and do things, your ears have to be smart, you are still at a loss for such a big thing." ”

Although there were complaints in Shi Wei's words, he had already acquiesced to what Fan Ruoshui asked.

Fan Ruoshui's expression couldn't help but become serious, and he frowned: "Moving the capital to Luoyang, according to the dangers of mountains and rivers to control the Quartet, is also a long-term and long-term policy, but I am only afraid that His Royal Highness the King of Jin will not agree." ”

"You're not stupid, you can see it." Shi Wei praised him again.

Then, Shi Wei pulled the people around him back.

When there was no one around, he told Fan Ruoshui what was happening in the palace today.

Fan Ruoshui listened to this, and couldn't help but change his expression: "King Jin is really bold, he even dares to threaten the Holy Lord!" ”

The threat is still light, maybe the rabbit is in a hurry, and he can even do such a thing as killing his brother and seizing the throne.

Shi Wei remembered the rumors about the sound of axes and candles in history, although it was a rumor, but with Zhao Guangyi's ruthless surname, it may not be impossible to do it.

Of course, this kind of thing, Shi Wei naturally can't come with Fan Ruoshui.

He sighed: "The King of Jin has worked hard to run Kaifeng Mansion for more than ten years, and he wants to be the prince with all his heart, and His Majesty is now moving the capital to Luoyang, which is equivalent to pulling out his life, can he not be in a hurry." ”

Fan Ruoshui nodded slightly, but said with emotion: "Yuanzhi, you are really bold enough, when you were in the palace, you even openly refuted King Jin like that, I think he may have hated you to the bone now." ”

"If I hadn't inadvertently offended King Jin, I wouldn't have eaten enough to oppose him now, if I didn't support His Royal Highness as the prince, not only me would be in the future, but if you and Zijun would not have a good end, I had to do it."

Shi Wei's words shocked Fan Ruoshui.

He knew very well that he and Shi Wei had long been in the same boat, and in the future, they would be both prosperous and loss-making.

Their future and destiny may have been closely linked on the night of Jinling's decision.

After pondering for a moment, Fan Ruoshui resolutely said: "If it weren't for the noble brother Shi, how could I Fan Ruoshui have today, Brother Shi rest assured, Ruoshui will stand firmly on your side." ”

Fan Ruoshui expressed his determination, Shi Wei felt relieved, and said with a smile: "Very good, with your help, why worry about big things." What you have to do now is to do a good job in this canal repair, which is not only a major matter related to the country, but also related to your future. ”

Fan Ruoshui said proudly: "Yuanzhi, don't worry, I'm not even afraid of the Yangtze River, and I'm not afraid of a canal." ”

"Good, very good." Shi Wei patted Fan Ruoshui's shoulder and was very pleased.

……………………………………

Since the debate in the Golden Palace on that day, no one in the court and China has raised any objection to the relocation of the capital.

On the surface, it seems that King Jin has no intention of inflicting it on the Son of Heaven anymore.

However, Zhao Kuangyin did not forcibly issue an order to move the capital, but still used the discussion of the relocation of the capital as a reason for discussion.

In private, Zhao Kuangyin sent someone to the three towns of Heyang secretly, wanting to summon Zhao Pu to talk about the old friendship between the monarch and the minister.

It's just that Zhao Pu's response is that he is sick and can't make the trip, please forgive me.

The three towns of Heyang are just north of Luoyang, and Luoyang City is only separated by a Yellow River, even if Zhao Pu is sick, he will not even be unable to walk these few steps.

Zhao Kuangyin knew very well that Zhao Pu didn't want to get involved in the whirlpool of the dispute over moving the capital, so he deliberately didn't want to come under the pretext.

Zhao Kuangyin was angry and helpless, I thought that you would not come, but I thought that except for Zhao Pu, I was afraid that no one would be able to suppress his good brother.

After weighing it, Zhao Kuangyin ordered Shi Wei to go to Heyang to diagnose Zhao Pu, but privately instructed Shi Wei to persuade Zhao Pu to take the initiative to stand up and share his worries for the king.

It is Shi Weixian's plan to summon Zhao Pu back to the court, and now the Son of Heaven has regarded him as a close confidant, and Zhao Pu refuses to return to the court under the pretext of refusing, so naturally he has to go out to "get Zhao Pu back".

Shi Wei got the king's order, and he didn't dare to delay a little, so he went back to the house and cleaned up and went on the road.

Located on the north bank of the Yellow River, Heyang City is the most important ferry port in the middle reaches of the Yellow River.

Shi Wei left Luoyang, crossed the Yellow River north two days later, and arrived at Heyang City smoothly.

After entering the city, Shi Wei went straight to Zhao Pu's Jiedu Embassy.

Hearing that the Hanlin medical envoy was there on the spot, Zhao Pu didn't dare not see it, so he ordered someone to invite Shi Wei into the front hall.

Shi Wei sat in the hall and looked around the hall, but found that Zhao Pu's mansion was very simple.

When Zhao Pu was the prime minister in Bianjing, although Shi Wei did not come to the house to pay respects, he also heard that the prime minister's mansion was magnificent, and it was also one of the best mansions in the entire capital.

Looking at this mansion now, it is so simple that even Shi Wei feels a little shabby, which is not at all consistent with his identity as an envoy.

"This Zhao Pu probably resented the Son of Heaven for giving him a break in the name of taking bribes, so he deliberately lived so shabby, he was doing it for the Son of Heaven."

When Shi Wei was speculating in his heart, he heard a burst of coughing, and Zhao Pu staggered out with the help of several maids.

Shi Wei hurriedly got up to greet him, and arched his hand: "Xia Guan has seen Zhao Xiang." ”

"Doctor Shi makes it sit quickly...... Ahem...... The old man is sick...... Ahem...... Can't go far to meet ...... Cough...... I hope that the stone doctor will forgive me. ”

Zhao Pu coughed intermittently, and from time to time he had to spit a few mouthfuls of phlegm into the small spittoon held by Yahuan, and his breath was weak, as if he was really seriously ill.

"Zhao Kuangyin told me that Zhao Pu is mostly pretending to be sick, and now it seems that his surname is really sick, he can't really be sick at this critical time."

Shi Wei suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart.

After watching Zhao Pu sit down tremblingly, Shi Wei said: "Zhao Xiang, the Son of Heaven heard that Zhao Xiang was infected with a disease, and he was very worried, so he ordered the official starry night to come to Zhao Xiang to diagnose his condition. ”

Zhao Pu coughed a few more times and sighed: "Your Majesty's care for the old man, the old man is really moved, but the old man's illness is an old problem, and it will pass in a month or two, so I won't bother with the stone doctor." ”

Shi Wei originally suspected that Zhao Pu was really sick, but now when he heard Zhao Pu's words, he immediately confirmed that the old boy was pretending to be sick.

Shi Wei's medical skills are high, no one in the Manchu Dynasty knows about the civil and military affairs, if Zhao Pu is really sick, under normal circumstances, he should wish that Shi Wei would treat him and relieve his pain.

But now Zhao Pu abnormally let him not bother, and said that he just had to endure it, such words and deeds were obviously afraid that once Shi Wei was diagnosed, he would see that he was pretending to be sick.

Shi Wei's eyes rolled slightly, and he immediately had an idea.

He then got up and stepped forward, put his hand into his sleeve, and said in a low voice: "I really don't hide it from Zhao Xiang, the lower officials came this time, not only to see Zhao Xiang, but also entrusted by the Son of Heaven, there is a secret letter to be handed over to Zhao Xiang." ”

As soon as Zhao Pu heard the secret order, his tired expression moved, and he struggled to stand up, stretching out his hand to receive the order.

Shi Wei saw the opportunity, and at the moment when he stretched out, he suddenly stepped forward half a step forward and grabbed his wrist with one hand.

"Doctor Shi, you are—" Zhao Pu's expression changed slightly, and his eyes showed surprise.

Shi Wei grabbed his hand tightly and said with a faint smile: "Zhao Pu slow down, the lower official is supporting you, the letter is in my arms, and let me look for it." ”

As he spoke, Shi Wei put his other hand into his arms as if he was taking something, but he didn't stretch it out after looking for a long time.

Zhao Pu is also a human spirit, and soon realized that Shi Wei wanted to take the opportunity to peek at his pulse.

It's just that Shi Wei said it nicely, and he didn't mean to be offensive at all, and he didn't want to let his subordinates push him away.

Zhao Pu had no choice but to exert force on his arms and try to struggle Shi Wei, but Shi Wei was young and strong, how could he fight for an old man in his forties and fifties.

Just as he was anxious, Shi Wei suddenly let go.

Zhao Pu leaned back, and in a panic, his legs instinctively moved before he stood firm.

In this way, he is free to move, which is diametrically opposed to Fang Cai's faltering state.

When Zhao Pu stood firm, he knew that he had fallen for Shi Wei's strategy again.

At this time, Shi Wei stared at Zhao Pu with a smile, and said in a mysterious tone: "Isn't Zhao Xiang seriously ill, why is he still very agile?" ”

With Shi Wei's medical skills, he only needs to spy on it for a moment, and he will know Zhao Pu's pulse.

This cunning old man, with a normal tight pulse, is clearly pretending to be pretending where there is any disease.

However, his play was extremely realistic, and even Shi Wei was almost deceived at the beginning.

Zhao Pu also knew that his performance had been seen through by Shi Wei at this time, and a little shame suddenly flashed on his face, and he was embarrassed for a while, not knowing how to deal with Shi Wei's suspicions.

The atmosphere in the lobby suddenly became a little awkward.

At this moment, in the inner courtyard of the Suddenly, someone shouted hysterically: "It's not good, Miss, she killed herself by cutting her wrists-"
