1169: The Emperor's suspicions
Fu Yuanling showed a wry smile and looked at His Majesty, "Father, do you remember the Mei family?" ”
"The Mei family?" The emperor frowned slightly, obviously he couldn't think of which this Mei family was for a while, and after a while, the emperor looked at Fu Yuanling with a soothing brow, "I remember that there is a person in the Mei family who is beheaded, right?" ”
Fu Yuanling nodded, "Yes, it was Mei Chenghai, the eldest of the Mei family, who beheaded him, and the problem encountered this time was Mei Chengchuan, the third eldest of the Mei family." ”
The emperor looked at Fu Yuanling, "This Mei Chengchuan is so powerful, can it still give you such a headache?" ”
Fu Yuanling didn't know whether the emperor's words were a temptation or ridicule, she could only say: "Father, don't make fun of your daughter-in-law, there are thousands of powerful people in this world, and your daughter-in-law is just a drop in the ocean and a little smart." Moreover, it is only because the daughter-in-law is older than the merchant family and has some experience in doing business, and the daughter-in-law is really ...... about other things."
Fu Yuanling shook his head with a wry smile on his face, looking helpless.
The emperor was happy to see her like this, it was rare to see her like this, but he was really interested, "Tell me, what trouble did this Mei Chengchuan cause, he actually asked Xiao Jiu to go and arrest people in person, and he didn't even return to the palace for a few days." ”
Fu Yuanling saw that His Majesty was really interested, so he thought about the origin of the Mei family briefly, His Majesty may not know, but Mei Chenghai's affairs have passed for so long, and His Majesty will definitely not take the affairs of the Mei family to heart, she has to let His Majesty recall.
The Mei family's history outside the customs was not glorious, and the origin of the Mei family was not glorious, and a Ming monarch like His Majesty, who was injured and stained with blood like this, must be disgusted, which is very important.
Sure enough, after listening to Fu Yuanling's words, the emperor's brows furrowed unnoticeably, but he didn't say anything about the Mei family.
His Majesty was very calm, Fu Yuanling felt that the sweat on her back was coming out, obviously it was the height of summer, and the soles of her feet were bursting with cold air.
Fu Yuanling simply talked about how many times he fought with Mei Chengchuan, and then talked about Mei Chengchuan's defeat and departure from Que Zhou Xingang, and then mentioned that Mei Chengchuan went to sea but appeared in Peach Blossom Town.
Among them, Fu Yuanling did not mention a word about King Wu, let alone Tan Guifei in the palace.
It's as if Mei Chengchuan has nothing to do with King Wu, but His Majesty knows that the Mei family has a daughter who is a concubine for King Wu and gave birth to a son.
It is also a fact that the Fu family and Mei Chengchuan have fought several times in Que Zhou Xingang, and the business contacts and confrontations can be found clearly at all, these Fu Yuanling are not concealed at all, and they deliberately lead the grievances with Mei Chengchuan to business, which seems to have nothing to do with the dispute for the reserve.
Fu Yuanling focused on Mei Chengchuan's disappearance from the sea and his sudden appearance in Peach Blossom Town, "Because the Mei family and our Fu family have always had business friction, the prince is not at ease, so he took someone to investigate the purpose of Mei Chengchuan's appearance here." ”
The emperor carefully looked at Fu Yuanling's expression, and said for a while: "Just for this kind of thing? ”
Fu Yuanling said a little crampedly: "Yes, I know that this matter is a little inappropriate, but this is the palace and not when I was in Beijing, there was no one around me to do this, so I could only work hard for the prince, and ask my father not to blame the prince, this matter is all because of the daughter-in-law, if you want to blame me." ”
The Emperor smiled lightly, "Okay, I know, you can step down." ”
Fu Yuanling's heart sank, and she was even more uneasy when the emperor made her like this, she could only bow down and retreat, and she couldn't show any abnormality.
Out of the main hall, Fu Yuanling squinted at the sun, the blazing sunlight fell on his body, but he couldn't drive away the coldness behind him.
In the hall, the emperor sat with a calm face for a while, and then spoke, "Luo Changying." ”
"The minions are here." Luo Changying immediately stepped forward and bowed in response, "Your Majesty, what do you command?" ”
"Let Lu Bai investigate this matter, and we must find out clearly."
Luo Changying's heart jumped, "Yes." ”
The commander of the Imperial Dragon Guard has always been responsible for His Majesty's safety, but now he has been arranged by His Majesty to investigate this matter in person, Luo Changying really doesn't know a Mei Chengchuan, how could His Majesty take such a fancy to this matter?
Don't say that Luo Changying didn't figure it out, Lu Bai was also taken aback when he suddenly received such an errand, and grabbed Luo Changying and didn't let go, "Manager Luo, you are so thorough, what the hell is going on?" ”
"Master Lu, it's not that our family doesn't say it, I really don't know." Luo Changying spread his hands, "This matter must be kept secret, Lord Lu stays, there is no need to send it." ”
Lu Bai looked at Luo Changying's back and gritted his teeth with hatred, this was really tight-mouthed, and he couldn't ask a word.
Lu Bai has a headache, he knows a little about going to Beijing, isn't Mei Chengchuan the brother of Aunt Mei of King Wu's concubine?
Mei Chenghai's matter was so big at the beginning, and it was not easy to know about the Mei family.
But Mei Chenghai is dead, and the Mei family doesn't know how to be restrained and low-key, what is this going to do now?
I don't know if King Wu knows it, and whether it has anything to do with King Wu.
If it had anything to do with King Wu, Lu Bai would feel hot, this was still an errand for an offended person.
Lu Bai ordered Wu Zhe to take someone with him to investigate the matter, and asked Yu Jian to stay behind to protect the holy car.
Wu Zhe ordered all the people and followed Lu Bai out, and said as he walked, "My lord, what are you going to do about this?" ”
Lu Bai snorted lightly, "Official." ”
They are His Majesty's guards, and they only obey the orders of the Son of Heaven, and no matter who is involved at this time, they must report impartially and never show favoritism.
"My subordinates heard that the third master of the Mei family didn't go south to Que Zhou Xingang to do business earlier? Why did he come here again, did the emperor check on him? "Wu Zhe doesn't understand, Luo Changying, this bastard is very slippery, and his speech is unclear, which makes people blind.
"It doesn't matter so much, anyway, the order we got is to check Mei Chengchuan, find people first." Lu Bai said with a straight expression.
"Yes." Wu Zhe didn't dare to say anything else, and set off with a straight expression.
The Imperial Dragon Guard left quietly, and Fu Yuanling was completely unaware of the fact that the emperor sent people out.
replied to a letter handed to her by Ni Shang Xuan Zhongchun, "Princess, this is Sister Yuanli's letter, which arrived half an hour ago." ”
Yuanli's letter?
Fu Yuanling remembered that she was asked to investigate the Mei family, and immediately took the letter and went into the house to check.
Unfold the letter and take a closer look, Fu Yuanling had a bit of suspicion on his face, Mei Chengjiang was still in Beijing and did not leave, according to the news found by Yuanli, it seems that Mei Chengjiang and Mei Yingyu had a conflict, and the two brothers and sisters have not been in contact for a long time.
Conflict?
Look at Yuan Li wrote on it that the Mei family in Shangjing has become a decadent trend.
