Luo Liancheng was still unable to get out of bed after two months at home, and his throat was damaged, and the doctor said that he would be dumb in the future. Qi Xia also changed her previous cold temperament, and came to the princess's mansion every now and then, sometimes with children.

Shen Mengxi felt that to a certain extent, Qi Xia was very similar to herself, and she was unwilling to do such a subservient thing if she didn't force her part. It's as if she deliberately said something that Emperor Wu liked to hear this time, pretending to be intimate, because she was afraid, three months ago, her own nephew, Emperor Wu's eldest grandson, was beheaded for treason.

It is said that fatherly love is conditional, and whoever is in his interest, he likes whomever he likes, and the mother is unconditional and selfless, having experienced ten months of pregnancy and once giving birth, the mother does not love the part that separates from her body all the time.

But Shen Mengxi didn't believe it, because the royal family had no family affection.

But people always have to learn to know the current affairs, An Ning has been sent by the Wang family to Zhuangzi outside the city to recuperate, and more Li women have died, or committed suicide, or died of illness, Li women are only peaceful and alive, and can go to prison to fish people.

In comparison, Qi Xia is also lucky, she really shouldn't complain.

******

Emperor Wu believed in Taoism and believed in the way of picking up yang and replenishing yin. Maybe that's why she lived healthy enough to be in her eighties. There are more and more faces in the harem, and the palace has also set up a crane supervisor to manage the harem for this purpose.

The clan gate lords were ashamed of this, but no one dared to speak out against it. He scolded in a moment of anger, and when he died, he died, and the hundreds of family members who followed him were beheaded and exiled, so he had to think about it.

These noodle heads are all young and handsome, some can play the piano, some can sing, some fan dance, some are good at playing, some are given to Emperor Wu by others, some are self-recommended, and even, one is sent to the door by his biological father.

On this day, Shen Mengxi went to the palace to say goodbye, saw an elegant man sitting behind Emperor Wu, saw her come in, got up and saluted. The man was about forty years old, with a clear face, a beard, and a very flowing white robe, presumably this was the new favorite of Emperor Wu recently.

Sure enough, Emperor Wu smiled and said that his name was Shen Nanxuan (qiu Ersheng), and he was the imperial doctor of the Imperial Physician's Department. Shen Nanxuan didn't raise his head, and bowed to Shen Mengxi in a proper manner, calling him His Highness.

This one is completely different from the Huaiyi monk, the Huaiyi monk is rough and rough, with wild and uninhibited, with masculine vitality, and this imperial doctor, gentle and elegant, mature and steady, is probably a portrayal of the state of mind of Emperor Wu after the stabilization of imperial power.

What is the difference between the three thousand beauties and the three thousand faces in the harem, there is no difference in detail, the highest seat, no matter who sits on it, will be lost. Probably out of animal instinct, the first reaction to ascending to a high position is to possess more of the opposite sex.

Once a woman reaches the point where she can do whatever she wants, she will be more ruthless, and it will be a disaster for the country, the people, and herself.

It is rumored that Emperor Wu's face also includes a cadre of courtiers, which Shen Mengxi can't be sure, she thinks that with the degree to which Emperor Wu attaches importance to the government, he will not attack the courtiers.

There are many wise and outstanding talents among the ministers, and it is possible to say that Emperor Wu appreciates his heart. For example, Di Renjie.

A month ago, Wu Chengsi and Di Renjie had a dispute over the government, one was Emperor Wu's nephew, and the other was the prime minister of the dynasty. Afterwards, Wu Chenghei held a grudge and secretly reported Di Renjie and other six ministers for rebellion, among which Di Renjie, Li Youdao, Yuan Zhihong and others were all newly appointed prime ministers and important ministers.

Emperor Wu has always admired Di Renjie, and he didn't believe it when he received a report, but according to the law, if someone exposes a report, he must be investigated and reviewed, even if the object of the revelation is the prime minister of the dynasty. So, Emperor Wu explicitly ordered Lai Junchen to find out the truth and not to be punished.

Lai Junchen and Wu Chengsi have already colluded and united, Lai Junchen was happy when he saw Di Renjie becoming a prisoner, and he did not interrogate, but ordered someone to torture him directly, where could Di Renjie, who was already in his sixties, survive, faint after two rounds.

After waking up, Lai Junchen induced Di Renjie to confess, saying that if he pleaded guilty in the first trial, he would be exempted from the death penalty and would not implicate his family. Di Renjie, who knew that he couldn't be good, immediately pleaded guilty, and Lai Junchen thought that he had a plan and sent Di Renjie back to prison.

Then the judge Wang Deshan came to the prison again, trying to trick Di Renjie into implicating and framing Cui Jin, Cui Jin is Cui Jiu, the son of Cui Xijiu, who once served in Yuzhou, is Di Renjie's subordinate, and has had a disagreement with Wang Deshan. Di Renjie was furious when he heard this, he could confess his guilt for the sake of his family, but let him frame others, it would be beyond the bottom line. Simply slammed his head into the prison wall, his head bleeding, and he would rather die.

Emperor Wu didn't know all this, Shen Mengxi heard that Junchen was examining Di Renjie, and he knew that Di Renjie was going to be unlucky. I entered the palace today to ask for peace, just to rescue Di Renjie.

If she doesn't make a move, Di Renjie should also be able to solve the predicament, but she will suffer a little more. But the opportunity is in front of you, you can not only make friends with Di Gong, but also hit Junchen, why not? Yuanfang, what do you think?

Shen Mengxi coughed, looked at Shen Nanxuan again, Emperor Wu understood, and let Shen Nanxuan go out.

"Ah Niang, Yue'er heard that even Di Renjie has entered the Push Academy, Di Gong is sixty years old, and he has no beautiful wife and concubine, why did Junchen arrest him?"

"Hugh is talking nonsense, someone reported the rebellion, and he was ordered to review it when he came to Junchen."

"Then Guild Di won't be killed?"

"I have ordered Lai Junchen not to be tortured."

"Really? I don't believe it! It's better for Yue'er to make a bet with A-Niang, I bet that Junchen will definitely be tortured, and bet four hundred taels of gold! ”

Emperor Wu couldn't cry or laugh, "This is a major event in the court, not a child's play!" ”

Shen Mengxi snorted, "I can't look at that scoundrel's pride, relying on Ah Niang's attention, I don't even care about me, a princess, now I think of his eyes, and I feel disgusting like a worm crawling on my face!" ”

Emperor Wu couldn't help but glance at Shen Mengxi again when he heard this, "Don't open your mouth and shut up scoundrels!" ”

"Ah Niang, Yue'er is just worried about Di Gong, if the important ministers of the country are ruined by scoundrels... Destroyed at the hands of that cheap slave, it is the loss of Da Zhou, and it is the loss of A-Niang! After Shen Mengxi finished speaking, he looked at Emperor Wu's face and softened, "Ah Niang, it's better to send the Metropolitan Procuratorate to the Magistrate's Court to try the case together." ”

As soon as he said this, Emperor Wu was also a little worried, "I'll talk about it tomorrow." Shen Mengxi retreated, and Emperor Wu fell into deep thought.

Shen Mengxi returned to the princess's mansion, and as soon as he got off the carriage in front of the mansion, he saw a man of about forty rushing to the car and kneeling, the guards quickly blocked Shen Mengxi, and two people stepped forward to restrain the man. The man shouted, "Princess, help!" I am Di Guangyuan, the son of Di Renjie, my father suffered a strange injustice, and I was beaten into a trick, begging the princess to save my life, and I will hear my father's grievances to the heavens! ”

dared to fish back to Luolian City, and was regarded as a life-saving Bodhisattva.

There were neighbors' servants and maids watching curiously from afar, Shen Mengxi wore a hat, stood in front of Di Guangyuan, and said loudly: "Di Gong has always been diligent and loyal to the king, bright and fair, this palace is convinced that Di Gong is innocent, Your Majesty is wise, and he will definitely give Di Gong justice!" ”

Di Guangyuan listened to this set of words, his eyes were full of despair, he looked up at Shen Mengxi, and helplessly couldn't see anything through the hat. Suddenly, I heard the princess whisper: "Tomorrow, the Metropolitan Procuratorate will intervene." Di Gong's life is worry-free. If there is no progress, he will find someone to report to Junchen in person. ”

Shen Mengxi Shi Ran entered the princess's mansion, leaving Di Guangyuan kneeling at the door in a daze.

On the second day, Emperor Wu suddenly drove to the Governor's Court, and the unprepared Lai Junchen had no time to cover up, so that Emperor Wu saw Di Renjie who was covered in scars and blood scabs on his forehead.

Emperor Wu was furious and directly demoted Junchen to Langzhong of the Criminal Department. Half a month later, the six officials were all acquitted of treason and all released, but they were still not reinstated, but were demoted to various localities to serve as magistrates.

Unconsciously, autumn in Luoyang has arrived, and the yellow leaves fall without wind.

Ten miles of long pavilion outside the south of Luoyang City, Di Renjie, with a gray beard, still had obvious scars on his forehead, he drank all the wine in the cup, and persuaded Cui Jin: "Huaiyu, see off thousands of miles, you must say goodbye in the end, so let's go here." ”

Cui Jin also toasted the wine sideways, "Di Gong is righteous, Cui Jiu will never forget it in this life!" This way is far away, I don't know what year goodbye, Di Gong cherishes! Cui Jiu was supposed to escort him personally, but his official duties were urgent, so he couldn't get out, and there were four guards here, who were sent by Di Gong. After speaking, he pointed to the four horsemen on the side of the road, and the four immediately turned over and dismounted, and came over to greet Di Renjie.

Di Renjie is really a light car, two thousand miles away, with only one carriage, two or three servants, in addition to two people at the city gate on this way, that is, the descendants of the Di family who are now wiping tears by Di Renjie's side.

"Huaiyu should be careful of Wang Deshan and his ilk in the future, they will not give up." What Di Renjie wanted to say was that sooner or later Lai Junchen would be activated by Emperor Wu.

"Di Gong rest assured, those thieves have all been demoted by His Majesty, and they are no longer capable of turning over!"

Di Renjie sighed, and before he could speak, a team of people came from the direction of Luoyang, and there was a lot of movement. Ten gorgeous carriages, two hundred guards, carriages and horses, mighty and mighty, raised the dust on the official road.

Di Guangyuan hurriedly ordered the coachman to drive the carriage to the side of the long pavilion to make way.

The large group of men and horses marched to the long pavilion, but they stopped.

A general dismounted and entered the long pavilion and bowed to Di Renjie, "It turned out that Di Gong was traveling far away!" He greeted Cui Jin again. Di Guangyuan recognized Commander Lu, and with a sigh, he hurried to the carriage at the front, and saluted through the curtain to thank him.

"Commander Lu, this is ......" Cui Jin looked at the team on the side of the road suspiciously, and was also surprised by Di Guangyuan's actions.

Her Royal Highness the princess said that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books, and when the autumn is cool, she will take Ah Lang and the lady at home to travel far away and increase her knowledge. I don't want to, I met Di Gong here! After speaking, he bowed his hand to Di Renjie.

"Oh? I wonder where the princess has gone? Cui Jin hurriedly asked.

"Princess Shicai said that she plans to go to Luzhou, or to Hangzhou and Fuzhou, and the return route has not yet been determined." Di Guangyuan, who walked back, said excitedly.

Cui Jin's eyes lit up, he looked at Di Renjie, then at the carriage on the side of the road, and said in a low voice: "Commander Lu, Di Gong's trip to Peng Ze has been going for two thousand miles, and the journey is difficult, I don't know if I can allow Di Gong's carriage to follow behind the car, and avoid being attacked by grass bandits." "It is inevitable that the grass robbers will rob, but as long as they are not left alone and go together with others, their safety is still guaranteed, and Cui Jin is afraid that there will be traitors who will retaliate.

When Commander Lu heard this, he hurriedly went to the princess's carriage to inquire, and came back after a while and said, "The princess has admired Duke Di for a long time, and it is a blessing that she can go the same way on this trip." Di Gong is leisurely, if I can advise my family one or two, I will be even more grateful. ”

"Di Mou is thin and shallow, Her Royal Highness Princess Meng and Da Lang will not give up, do not suspect Di Mou of misleading people's children, Di Mou will do his best to know and live up to the princess." Di Renjie saluted to the carriage on the official road. turned around and said goodbye to Cui Jin, waved to his crying children and grandchildren, got into the carriage, followed the team, and headed southeast.
