Chapter 127: Rescuing Feng Yulan (32)
Dali Siqing Changju has been a little worried recently.
First of all, Changju has a brother-in-law named Wang Liyun. Chang Ju, as the secretary of Dali Temple, can be regarded as a super master, even if he looks at the capital full of vermilion and purple, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the grade and power of this Dali Temple are not small. Because of this, his relatives and friends will feel that Bei'er has face.
It's just that Bei'er has face, and some people have "made good use" of this advantage, including this Wang Liyun.
Wang Liyun opened a restaurant, which is in the west market of the capital. In the capital, the west market is dominated by the catering industry, the east market is dominated by agricultural and sideline products, the south market is mostly textiles and other sundries, and the north market is entertainment venues, such as green buildings and casinos.
Wang Liyun's restaurant is not large, after all, there are many luxury restaurants there, and the place is also expensive.
When a restaurant opens, it is inevitable that the chef will open up the wasteland. The so-called wasteland chef is hired with a high salary to attract guests at the beginning of the hotel's opening, and he generally does not stay for a long time, and there are also seconded from major restaurants.
As the brother-in-law of Dali Siqing, Wang Liyun still found a few good celebrity chefs to help him take care of the early restaurant. However, two months later, after the chefs left, the restaurant's business gradually deteriorated. The guest doesn't care about you, he only thinks the food is good or not. So, this Wang Liyun began to play the idea of those chefs. Where would other restaurants agree? So, this Wang Liyun took advantage of his brother-in-law's reputation as a frequent gathering, and even coaxed and frightened, and finally got two. It's just that. The most famous chef, but he can't dig it up. Because the other party's boss also has a background, his relationship is the relationship of the prince. That's the uncle of the red girl Wanqing next to the prince.
Prince, Wang Liyun didn't dare to offend. However, he was so bold that he actually found someone to kidnap the famous chef to his restaurant, and if he didn't agree to join me, he would fight! As a result, the cook was very tough, and he didn't agree with it, and scolded him. Wang Liyun was angry. He was beaten so hard that he was beaten to death.
Now the uncle of the Wanqing girl was not happy, and sued Wanqing here; Wanqing told the prince about this again, and the prince asked Chang Ju about it. However, the prince didn't pay much attention to it, after all, this matter was too far away from him.
But that's no longer the case. I don't know why, the prince suddenly summoned Chang to gather in the East Palace to see him. Chang Ju was apprehensive and saw the prince. The prince first praised him greatly, and just when he was so happy that he got carried away, his tone suddenly changed and he said, "But. As the old saying goes, the embankment of a thousand miles is destroyed in the anthill, and the adults are always clean. It's hard to guarantee that someone will smear you. ”
Chang Ju also understood, and quickly stood up. He arched his hand and said, "Your Highness is talking about my brother-in-law?" ”
The prince nodded slightly, and Chang Ju hurriedly said, "After going back." Weichen made a special trip to make amends to Sister Wanqing for the unfinished thing, and she wanted to be beaten and punished, and she listened to it! ”
At this time, calling my sister does not mean that the other party is old, but an honorific title.
The prince said: "This matter, for the time being, there is one more thing I want to ask you." ”
Chang Juxin said it, and sure enough, he just stuck me with that thing, so that I could comply. So he asked, "I don't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince commands?" ”
The prince said: "Lone has a friend named Zhou Xiaocao."
After coming out of the East Palace, Chang Ju Chang thought all the way, wanting to sort out this matter.
On the same day, he was ordered by the emperor to go to Cangzhou and copy Feng Zigui's house. At that time, he thought, why would a Hu businessman who was far away in Cangzhou work for him to go to his house with a dignified Dali Temple? And is it the will of the Holy Majesty Himself? Also, why did they pardon their family's son-in-law, Zhou Xiaocao and Zhou Juren? You must know that this kind of major case of rebellion is generally at least the three clans, and even the six clans and the nine clans, not to mention Zhou Xiaocao, who is already a son-in-law of the Feng family. However, the impossible thing happened, it just appeared, and it was something that the emperor personally asked.
What's going on?
At the beginning, he thought that there was some master behind Zhou Xiaocao, so he was always kind to Zhou Xiaocao, at least in his opinion. Later, I learned that this "master" was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself! That's easy to explain.
What happened later began to confuse Chang again.
After arresting the Feng family and going to prison, the emperor seemed to have forgotten about it and never mentioned it again. This is a month.
Now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince called him to threaten him with his brother-in-law's affairs, and asked him to help Zhou Xiaocao.
He, help, or not help?
If you don't help, you will offend the prince, and the prince will give an order, and there will be a division to check on the death of the cook, and his brother-in-law Wang Liyun will be found out. Wang Liyun is certainly guilty of killing someone; However, if the prince instructs someone to make a fuss about this matter at the court meeting and accuses himself of negligence in front of the emperor, then this official will have to move his nest.
If you help, problems will arise.
First of all, this matter is obviously a ghost caused by the little prince, he helped Zhou Xiaocao, which is equivalent to being an enemy of the little prince, which is enough for him to drink a pot.
His Royal Highness the Prince, the little prince, he often gathers and doesn't want to provoke anyone, and he can't afford to provoke him.
What to do?
Unconsciously, he had walked to the vicinity of Wenyang Pavilion, where the emperor did his daily work, and happened to meet Emperor Tianze coming towards him.
Chang Ju hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "Weichen often gathers, knock to see the emperor!" ”
Emperor Tianze just nodded at him slightly, and continued to walk forward. Chang Ju knelt on the ground, the emperor didn't go far, he didn't dare to get up.
At this moment, he suddenly heard the very favored Gonggong Zhu say to the emperor: "Shengshang, Zhou Xiaocao has been active more frequently recently, the prince's place, and Prince Gong's mansion, he has been there. Moreover, the slave maid heard that he was visiting everywhere trying to clear his father-in-law's name. ”
Chang Ju heard that what Gonggong Zhu said happened to be related to the prince's confession to him, and immediately pricked up his ears to listen, what he wanted to know was what the emperor thought of Zhou Xiaocao.
This Changju is also a smart one, and now he is struggling with whether to help the prince offend the little prince, or help the little prince to offend the prince. What the? You say that you are not guilty of two things? How is that possible? Does he often gather to be qualified to be a peacemaker for these two people? In that case, I'm afraid that both sides will be offended.
I only heard Emperor Tianze say with a smile: "That child, in the end, is a filial piety and affection. Although he is a son-in-law, he does not forget to exonerate his father-in-law, nor does he forget the wife of a one-day husband and wife. Well, it's a lover! ”
Chang Ju knelt on the ground, motionless.
Until the emperor had already gone far away, he could no longer hear the sound, and he was still kneeling there like a clay sculpture. Suddenly, a sharp pain came, and he rubbed his aching knee and stood up.
Looking in the direction of the East Palace, Master Chang nodded heavily. He knew how to decide this case.
The Prince's opinion is not important; The opinion of the little prince is not important. The important thing is the emperor's opinion, what kind of result the emperor wants!
He didn't believe it, the emperor happened to be passing by here, and Zhu Gonggong mentioned Zhou Xiaocao fairly.
This qiē seems to be deliberately arranged!
The emperor will definitely not sue him, you go and favor Zhou Xiaocao! "Secret hints" like today's are already obvious. The emperor's words were a reassuring pill for Chang Ju, and he knew what the emperor wanted to end.
However, then again, since the emperor wanted to favor Zhou Xiaocao, why did he arrest Feng Zigui? Because this time it was obvious that the little prince falsely accused Feng Zigui. 30,000 catties of pig iron, what a joke!
Master Chang walked all the way, thinking all the way, hoping to find an entry point to better handle this matter for the emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince (to be continued......
