Chapter 614: A Cat

Wang Zhixuan looked down at Fang Jinyan, who was sleepy, with fair and smooth skin, delicate face, and a quiet expression, as if no one had ever hurt such a beautiful woman.

"Forget it, I don't know if the Fang family knows about it, will there be extraneous branches, so ......"

Leng Yi interrupted Wang Zhixuan's words and said, "I think the same way, and there is another thing, I have thought about it for a long time and want to come over and talk to you." ”

Wang Zhixuan said: "My lord, just say it, and my subordinates will do it." ”

Leng Yi glanced at Fang Jinyan and said, "Carry her back to the room and let Xiyan look at it, let's go for a walk." ”

Wang Zhixuan easily picked up the thin Fang Jinyan and followed Leng Yi out of the door.

There are three gardens in Lengfu, one in the Zhixiang Garden, one in the courtyard of the second lady, and the other is their back garden, which is also the largest garden, with an artificial lake and a variety of exotic flowers and plants, all of which are rare varieties.

Leng Yi took Wang Zhixuan to the island in the middle of the lake in the back garden, where there was a small pavilion with wine and food already on it.

Leng Yi walked to the table and motioned for Wang Zhixuan to sit down opposite him, and after Wang Zhixuan gave a salute, he bowed down and sat down.

"My lord, what is the important matter, I actually want to avoid Jinyan to say, and I have specially prepared wine and food, and the lower officials really dare not be it." Wang Zhixuan arched his hand and said.

Leng Yi smiled and poured Wang Zhixuan a glass of wine himself, Wang Zhixuan was flattered, and quickly got up to thank him, Leng Yi waved his hand and said, "Today, you and I pour ourselves a drink, so that no superfluous people stand aside and are eyesore." ”

Wang Zhixuan sat down again, and Leng Yi said again: "This can be regarded as a practice for you and Jinyan." She's just not good now, but when she's in good health, the amount of alcohol is still excellent. "With that, raise your glass.

The two men drank the wine in their glasses. Wang Zhixuan said: "Xia Guan has also seen the amount of Jinyan's wine, and he really doesn't let the women shave their eyebrows." ”

After saying that, the two of them burst out laughing.

Leng Yi said: "Yesterday, when I went to Ciming Hall to pick up Xiyan, I heard about something. After speaking, he grabbed a few peanuts directly from the plate and chewed them in his mouth.

Wang Zhixuan glanced at Leng Yi, couldn't see the clue, couldn't think of anything. I had to say: "Is it related to Jinyan?" ”

Leng Yi said: "It's okay, Fang Shuli had a miscarriage, I heard that someone put medicine in her sugar water." ”

Wang Zhixuan was stunned: "When did it happen." Xia Guan didn't hear Chang Zai mention it when he saw him a few days ago, and although he didn't treat this concubine very well, he didn't treat him badly, how could he ......?"

Leng Yi said: "And this matter is not what Chang Jae told me. It was said by a bachelor from the Hanlin Academy, Fang Ziqing's former subordinate. ”

Wang Zhixuan sneered: "A big man plainly talks about the rights and wrongs of other people's families. I'm afraid it won't be unintentional. ”

Leng Yi nodded, raised his glass and toasted with Wang Zhixuan again, then said: "He said it to me because I am now Fang Jinyan's eldest brother and Bai Hong's younger sister." ”

Wang Zhixuan said curiously: "Could it be that someone really wants to have something to do with Jin Yan in this matter, she has been away from the Fang family for so long, and she has been calm, who wants to make a ghost." ”

Leng Yi said: "I have also thought about this question. I can't think of a reason, but I just said it casually and found a topic. People talk about the shortcomings of parents, and we also talk about it, just to relieve boredom. ”

But in Wang Zhixuan's opinion, Leng Yi is not a person who casually takes one thing to relieve his boredom, and this matter should be something to talk about, so he got up and said: "Please also make it clear that no matter what it is, the lower officials are willing to do it for Jinyan." ”

Leng Yi motioned for him to sit down, and said with a smile: "It's really okay, I came to you today, and I have another serious matter to discuss with you, but that Fang Shuli is Fang Jinyan's eldest sister, I will tell you when I think about it, anyway, you are leaving, and no one will splash these dirty water on Jinyan's body in the future, it is better to leave early......" After speaking, he lowered his head and ate the vegetables.

Wang Zhixuan sat down slowly, looked at Leng Yi's expression, and thought to himself, since Fang Jinyan has nothing to do with the Fang family for so long, is Fang Shuli really having a miscarriage now? If it really is, does anyone really want to use this matter to splash dirty water on Fang Jinyan? If not, then what does Leng Yi mean by himself?

Leng Yi ate a few bites of food, and saw Wang Zhixuan sitting there thoughtfully without speaking, he was amused, but he didn't show it, and said secretly: "It's just for you to think about what I mean, anyway, you and Li Changzai are the best friends, I dare to take your good friend's concubine and joke with you, if you don't believe it, you can ask, the most important thing is that I want you to fly away with Jinyan tomorrow, don't come back, there are always people in this place who will not let go of your wife, whether she is still from the Fang family." ”

"By the way, I heard that yesterday at noon, the Empress Dowager asked you to enter the palace?" Leng Yi asked unhurriedly, and he didn't look at Wang Zhixuan, he just drank and ate by himself.

Wang Zhixuan nodded and said, "It's just some words of advice, and then I also said some government affairs in Hangzhou, and the officials kept them in mind one by one and didn't dare to forget them." ”

Leng Yi smiled, raised his eyes to look at Wang Zhixuan, and said, "I always thought you were smart. ”

Wang Zhixuan saw Leng Yi's eyes looking at him, it was so cold and sharp, like a murderous blade that would stab him at any time, he couldn't help but tremble, but there was nothing else in his heart, and there was no such thing as a weak heart, so he dared to look at the other party directly, but he was puzzled in his heart, Leng Yi meant by these words, although he had been with Leng Yi's side for so many years, and he was not the kind of stupid person, Leng Yi entrusted himself with a heavy responsibility, but now Leng Yi's words really made him confused.

"The subordinates are not talented, so the adults laugh at it." Wang Zhixuan felt the sweat on his forehead come out, and couldn't help but reach out to wipe it.

Leng Yi smiled: "Actually, it's not that you're not smart, but in Fang Jinyan's matter, you blindly took into account her thoughts, but let your feelings blindfold you, and you can't see clearly some things that you should see clearly." ”

Wang Zhixuan arched his hand and said: "The subordinates are dull, and I hope that the adults will make it clear." ”

Leng Yi got up and walked to the guardrail, Wang Zhixuan also got up and went over, and the two of them stood together, looking at the lake and mountains, and the breeze was clear.

"What do you think the Empress Dowager meant when she told the emperor half a year ago that you would go to Hangzhou as a governor?" Leng Yi asked.

Wang Zhixuan thought for a while and said: "My subordinates really don't know, my father once told my subordinates that people who are officials should not only look at the present, but should take a long-term view, in fact, to be honest, if it weren't for the foolish brother's poor health, the subordinates would feel that his character was more suitable for being an official, and his subordinates would be willing to be an idle nobleman, wandering the world, and not asking about government affairs." ”

Leng Yi sighed, leaned on the railing with both hands, and said, "Who wants to fight with others all day long, and fight with themselves?" But I believe what you said, your character is actually not suitable for an official, the governor of Hangzhou has always been the most fat official position in the opinion of the court officials, the land of fish and rice, the main road on the water, is the granary of the world of the imperial court, such an important position to a deputy court of the criminal court, do you think it is the credit of your parents, or your own credit? ”

Wang Zhixuan didn't dare to say anything, so he had to say shamefully: "The Empress Dowager and the emperor have always been kind to my parents and have treated me well, but my subordinates also understand, and even with these two points, it is not enough to let my subordinates be officials in such an important position, but my subordinates don't understand, why did the Empress Dowager do this?" ”

Leng Yi looked into the distance, for a while, and said: "I didn't really want to understand before, and I also asked the emperor what he meant, but although the emperor is young and talented, very wise, but sometimes it is not enough for a person to be smart, what is also needed is the tempering and exercise of time and events, the emperor said, it is also time to train his own right-hand man, it seems to be reused, but if it is really reused, put it by his side for a few years before becoming a foreign official, wouldn't it be better?" ”

Wang Zhixuan saw that Leng Yi was analyzing the head of the way, and couldn't help but become more and more suspicious of the intentions of the empress dowager and the emperor, but he was carried away by joy, and he really couldn't see the true intentions of these people anymore.

"Hearing what the adults said, the subordinates were also puzzled, but they still couldn't open their mouths, but they became more and more confused."

Leng Yi turned around and patted Wang Zhixuan's shoulder with a smile, and said, "Don't worry, I only figured it out recently, after all, you are the authority, and it is normal to not see clearly." Let's go, let's continue to drink, this time after raising a glass, I don't know when and where, you and I can drink like this. ”

Back in his seat, Wang Zhixuan poured Leng Yi full of wine, raised his glass and said, "My lord, my subordinates please have a drink." ”

Leng Yi raised his glass and said: "Do you like the days when you pick chrysanthemums under the east fence and see Nanshan leisurely?"

Wang Zhixuan said: "That's naturally the best, and my subordinates also believe that Jinyan likes that kind of day very much." ”

Leng Yi took a sip of the wine first, put down the wine glass, and said: "If one day you can live such a day, let people come back and let me know, I really want to raise a glass with you and see Nanshan leisurely." ”

Wang Zhixuan couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I don't know when I can drink with adults tomorrow." ”

Leng Yi said: "Forget it, let's not talk about these sad things, let's tell you an interesting story about the Queen Mother." ”

Wang Zhixuan knew that Leng Yi was favored by the Empress Dowager and the emperor on weekdays, and this time the emperor left the capital, Leng Yi exercised the heavy responsibility of supervising the country, which shows that the Empress Dowager attaches great importance to Leng Yi.

"My subordinates would like to hear about it."

Leng Yi first drank a glass of wine, and while watching Wang Zhixuan pour himself wine, he generally spoke unhurriedly.

"Did you know that cats are not allowed in the harem?" Leng Yi asked first.

Wang Zhixuan smiled indifferently: "To be honest, my subordinates have rarely walked in the palace in the past few years, and I really don't know much about the affairs of the harem, but I have heard of this thing of not allowing cats, and I heard that it was the Queen Mother's starling who was very good at talking that let a cat eat it, so this is ......"
