Chapter Seventy-Eight: Confusion (2nd Watch)
"Fang Jin's inner court is turbulent, if you want to sit firmly in the position of the master of ceremonies, you must have great courage, otherwise if you are not careful, you may have to go to Feng Bao as a companion. After all, the ancestor has an age, and his ambition is no longer there, he just wants to spend his old age in peace, and he doesn't want to wade into this troubled water again......" Chen Ju said this, raised his eyebrows, and said: "Otherwise, how do you think our Qianqing Palace steward brand came from?" According to the qualifications of the father and the degree of the saints, it is still a little unqualified! ”
I see!
Chen Mo nodded secretly, and said in his heart that Gao Zhong was a good calculation, and he pushed Chen Ju up by retreating, and then he had his own "royal celebrity" righteous grandson, his position naturally became more and more stable, and it didn't matter if he was the master of ceremonies.
Chen Juxu had something to do, and he didn't stay in Chen Mo's room for a long time, and as soon as he left, Chen Mo, who had been holding on for a long time, finally didn't have to pretend to be relaxed anymore, and turned around in the room anxiously.
At lunchtime, he went to the canteen once, but he didn't hear the news about Feng Bao, and he didn't see Chen Ju, I don't know if it was Zhao Pengcheng's absence, the delicious food was like chewing wax in his mouth, and he used two mouthfuls at will, so he stopped eating and got up and went back to his residence.
It was another long afternoon, during which he copied two pages of the Analects, circled the house 1,136 times, and walked to the back door three times and the gate of the small courtyard eleven times......
At the beginning of the lanterns, Chen You, who hurriedly broke into the house, finally brought back the news that Chen Mo had been waiting for for a long time: "Say less and say less, long live the decree, Xu Jue and others cut their posts and went to the official, detained Dongchang, Zhang Dashou was demoted to a small fire, and sent Nanjing Xiaoling to grow vegetables, old, Feng Bao ......"
"How is Feng Bao?" Chen Mo felt that his heart was in his throat, and he grabbed Chen You's shoulders with both hands, and he didn't feel any pain when the wound burst out.
"Feng Bao is perverse, mad, Ling Chi is not an exaggeration, I remember that he was the minister of the former emperor Tuogu, and he made a slight contribution to Sheji, Bai Aya gave death, leaving his whole corpse ......"
"Impossible!" Chen Mo had a loud bang in his head, glaring at Chen You: "Where did you get the news from, is it a holy decree, but this is not like the words of the holy decree?" ”
"It was Wang Hai who said it, and he followed the uncle into the palace...... If you don't believe it, we'll call him for you and let him tell you! ”
Wang? Chen Mo sneered and shook his head: "No need, let's go down, let's be quiet, now my brain is a little messy, we have to take care of it." ”
Chen You looked at Chen Mo carefully, and saw that his face was gloomy and he looked frightened, but although his brows were tightly wrinkled, his eyes were very focused, which was by no means the same as the dejected appearance a few days ago, so he was slightly relieved and nodded: "It's okay to be quiet, it's okay to be quiet...... We're next door, you can call us if there's something! With that, he left.
Chen Mo didn't even hear Chen You go out, he lay down on the bed in a large shape, staring at the bed curtain. He couldn't figure out why there was such an ending, and he said that he was degraded to Fengyu? How can you give white silk to death? He smiled bitterly, in fact, he should have expected it a long time ago, Chen Ju has become the steward of the Qianqing Palace, what is impossible to give Feng Bao death?
Maybe it's not bad to die, right?
Chen Mo gritted his teeth, after all, if he continued to develop like this, he finally broke away from the original historical trajectory. The top priority is to prevent Zhu Yijun from holding on to this matter and wantonly punishing him, in that way, Feng Bao's death will be meaningless, and if it is not good, there will still be a situation in which the civil officials recorded in history are agitated and wantonly attack Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng.
This is the situation that Chen Mo is most unwilling to see.
Is it just that he can influence Zhu Yijun's thoughts? After the experience of failing to persuade Feng Bao, Chen Mo was no longer so confident in his abilities, especially now, he didn't know what position he had in Zhu Yijun's heart. Because his relationship with Feng Bao was too close, those deliberate approaches at the beginning may have no weight in Zhu Yijun's heart, right?
Rescue?
Thinking of this word, Chen Mo couldn't help but smile bitterly. The feelings of the heavenly family are different from ordinary people, when it comes to imperial power, fathers, sons and brothers can wield knives against each other, not to mention the merit of saving the driver. Besides, under that circumstance at that time, it would be impossible for someone else to watch Zhu Yijun die.
Now Lao Tzu is unable to protect himself, what do you still want to do with what you don't have?
Chen Mo rubbed his face vigorously, only then did he realize that the wound burst again, and the pain came unexpectedly, making him subconsciously gasp, and his uninjured arm hammered the bed board hard, scolded Malegobi, and closed his eyes in a dejected manner.
It's just that now where does he have the heart to sleep, and the experience since the time crossing appeared in his mind one by one, like a slideshow, and his head was about to explode.
"Uncle, didn't Wang Hai say that you won't come back tonight? How ......" Chen You's voice came from outside the window, which made Chen Mo feel excited, Gollum got up from the bed, didn't even bother to lift the heels of his shoes, and rushed out with a pull, and saw that Chen Ju had just entered the courtyard.
Chen Mo had come back to his senses at this moment, and felt that it was inappropriate to rush forward to inquire about the news so rashly, so he took a breath and calmed down, grinned, and tried to pull out a smile, and then stepped forward to say hello.
"Long live Lord is going to stay in Yanqi Palace tonight, so you don't need to wait for our family...... Don't say much, it's not good to lie down, it's a cold day, you can run out if you wear so little, how can you get it if you get cold? Get back to the house! ”
Chen Mo was shocked to realize that he was in a hurry, and he actually only wore a middle coat (also known as a liner or a middle single, which is a shirt of Hanfu, which plays a role in matching and foiling, just like the current shirt, which cannot be worn outside, and can be used as home clothes and pajamas) and ran out.
The corners of his mouth grinned, this time it was not intentional, but frozen. Chen Mo shuddered and said, "Hearing that the father-in-law is back, the child came out to take a look...... Did your stepfather have dinner? ”
"Used it...... Chen You made a pot of tea and brought it over...... Shao Yan, go to your house, there are some things that my father can't see through, let's discuss and discuss. ”
"What's the matter?" Chen Mo let Chen Ju into the room, invited Chen Ju to sit on his bed, and he sat on the bed opposite where Siqi had slept before, I don't know if it was an illusion, but there was still a faint fragrance.
"Long Live Lord originally ordered Feng Bao to be executed, and the rumors spread out, in the afternoon, Zhang Cheng and Sun Xiu went to ask for the decree but touched a nose of ash, and then Zhang Whale also went once, Long Live Lord simply didn't see it...... You kid is smart, pondering, long live the Lord should not change his mind, right? ”
Zhu Yijun's character is indeed a little indecisive, lacking the courage to act decisively, and it is very likely to change his mind and let Feng Bao go, which also echoes the historical record. After all, the rebellion of the "Great Companion" was passed on to future generations, Feng Bao's reputation was stinky, and he, the victim, did not necessarily have a better face.
But in that case, how is it different from what was originally recorded in history?
It stands to reason that Chen Mo should be disappointed, but for some reason, he felt relieved, and suddenly became very down-to-earth-maybe, Lao Tzu really has feelings for the old guy, right?
Chen Mo smiled bitterly, he couldn't say it clearly, he suddenly had an impulse: "Father-in-law, the child wants to go into the palace to have a look!" ”
