Chapter 80: Exhortation

When Du Zhiyi came to the door, Zhao Ying was sitting under her grape trellis peeling lotus seeds, preparing to make a bowl of lily lotus seed porridge for Zhao Chengyan himself.

The little girl outside came in layer by layer, saying that Du Sanlang sent someone to send an invitation to the palace, and she was slightly surprised.

originally thought that even if Du Zhiyi wanted to look for her, he would ask his cousin to tell him, but he didn't expect him to swagger and send a worship post.

So she put down the lotus canopy with the big mouth of the bowl in her hand, and ordered no one to touch her lotus pod and lotus seeds, turned her head and went into the house to change her clothes, and then took Huichun and Shuxia out of the house.

Yunyi Lou in the city is a very magnificent restaurant.

It has been opened in the capital for more than ten years, it is magnificent and has big rules, and it is all high-ranking officials and nobles who are ushered in, and ordinary people can not afford to spend silver to eat a table of banquets in Yunyi Building.

Zhao Ying ran outside the palace, but she liked the dishes of Yunyi Building very much, all of them were exquisite, and it made people appetizing when they looked at it.

The second child in the building recognized her, and Du Zhiyi had already ordered her, as soon as he saw her enter the door, he bent his waist to meet her, but he didn't dare to make a mistake, and led people straight up to the fourth floor.

Zhao Ying raised her eyebrows.

The reason why even she thinks that Yunyilou has big rules is because Yunyilou doesn't even sell her face.

Going back and forth to Yunyi Lou so many times, whether she is or Xue Xianting, she has never been on the fourth floor.

The shopkeeper who sat in the hall in the building said that this is a perennial package for people, and they gave silver to cover the entire fourth floor.

At first, they all felt that the mystery was mysterious, and they wanted to explore it more and more, but later it was Song Yunjia who preached them, and as they got older, they faded this thought.

Therefore, it is Du Zhiyi who has been on the fourth floor of Yunyi Building all year round.

No wonder no one dares to sell face.

Zhao Ying went upstairs with her skirt, only to find that the fourth floor was a cave.

Sure enough, in this familiar layout and furnishings, she saw Du Zhiyi in brocade clothes.

The coarse linen shirt is the appearance of the idle cloud and wild crane, and he changed into a brocade shirt and jade crown and turned into a noble son with an elegant bearing.

Zhao Ying chuckled: "I never knew that the fourth floor of Yunyi was owned by Du Sangongzi all the year round. ”

Du Zhiyi sat with his back to the staircase, the distance was not too far, and when he heard the words, he turned around, slowly got up, and pretended to take two steps: "Yunyi Building was originally mine." ”

The smile on Zhao Ying's face froze for a moment.

It's really a big business.

She propped her forehead: "That's no wonder." ”

Du Zhiyi laughed: "Has Your Highness been clean in the past two days?" ”

Zhao Ying sat down according to his momentum, waited for him to sit down directly opposite, and squinted at the past: "What's not pure?" Whether it is interception or Siliyuan, there is an imperial uncle who stands in the way for me, and I think I am a rich idler, just eat, drink and have fun. ”

"But His Highness is not a person who teases cats and dogs, and his heart is big." He held his cheeks and pushed the white sugar osmanthus cake in front of him over, "Your Highness said last time that if I was attached to you, I would have to come and leave as soon as I was summoned?" ”

"I didn't say that." Zhao Ying lowered her eyebrows and glanced at the plate cake, but she didn't move, "Who dares to call and drink to the third prince?" So the third prince invited me to come today, did you think about it? ”

He shook his head: "I haven't completely thought about it, and I want to see His Highness's attitude - in order to win people's hearts, how far His Highness can go." ”

"I can do nothing." Zhao Ying didn't answer at all, "Do you think I'm short of manpower?" ”

He still shook his head, the expression on his face was always so faint, and a pair of eagle eyes stared at Zhao Ying, as if he wanted to see through the truest thoughts in her heart.

It's ridiculous.

Obviously a teenager, sitting in front of him, he always felt that he couldn't see through her.

In the end, he sighed slightly: "Since I invited His Highness, it is not interesting to freeze with His Highness, His Highness is a person who can figure people's hearts, no matter how much I ask, I will not pay attention to it." ”

Du Zhiyi sighed, lowered his head and tidied up his cuffs: "Over the years, the Bofu has been getting worse day by day, my father has long been concerned about the affairs of the family, and he has relied on his brother to support him, but the huge Bofu, if there is no silver I have earned in business, I am afraid it will be difficult to support."

Your Highness should know that I am not a real idle cloud and wild crane, maybe my heart desires, but after all, I will be burdened by the world. ”

"The third son is a man of temperament, attaches great importance to affection and righteousness, and values his family." Zhao Ying raised her eyebrows, "I said, the third prince will help me succeed, and I will give you everything you want." ”

Du Zhiyi smiled sincerely: "I heard that Chen Shide's case was handed over to the Criminal Department, but His Royal Highness didn't go to the prison of the Criminal Department to see him?" ”

"I wanted to come yesterday, but Uncle Huang stopped me, and I also thought that I was a little too anxious, and if I gave Shen Ge Lao and them the handle to hold me, the matter of Si Liyuan would only be more tricky."

Zhao Ying sighed, and her mood was visibly low: "But I still have to find a time to go, after all, he is not just involved in a case of embezzlement of ink, he can't tell him about sending someone to intercept and kill me, as a victim, it is reasonable for me to ask two sentences." ”

"His Royal Highness King Yan is just distressed by His Highness."

Where are they afraid of Shen Dianchen, what so-called handle they hold.

Is Zhao Chengyan afraid? Zhao Ying is even more afraid.

Zhao Ying breathed a sigh of relief: "You invited me out today, there should be something else, right?" ”

Du Zhiyi smiled and said naturally: "Since it is a refuge, I should still have some sincerity." ”

He said as he took a bronze medal-like thing from his cuff.

Zhao Ying's eyes were sharp, and he immediately recognized that it was the iron certificate of the silver number.

"Are you going to send me some silver first?"

She teased in a mocking tone, Du Zhiyi had already put Tie Ping firmly in front of her: "I know that His Highness is not short of silver, but the only thing I can give His Highness now is silver." ”

Zhao Ying remembered what Du Zhiyi said to him that day, covered her lips and coughed twice, stretched out her small hand, and accepted the iron certificate, her face did not change.

Seeing her so calm, Du Zhiyi breathed a long sigh of relief: "It should be a very pleasant thing to work with His Highness, at least I recognize His Highness as the Lord, His Highness's words and deeds, every move, are not too twisted and concealed." ”

Of course.

Zhao Ying thought so in her heart.

But what Du Zhiyi recognizes at the moment may not be her Zhao Ying.

She knew it, she just didn't poke it.

"After the establishment of the Sili Academy, are you interested in coming on a two-day errand?"

Du Zhiyi immediately shook his head: "Your Highness should spare me, if there is really no one available, I can think of someone available for Your Highness, as for me, I will not go to cause trouble for Your Highness." ”

He's a talented man, but he doesn't want to get involved.

But Zhao Ying also understood what he meant, and his face was slightly gloomy: "How much silver can be used for me, but if you want to enter the court, you can't?" ”

Du Zhiyi's eyelids jumped: "The Conningbo Mansion is crumbling, I don't intend to let people know now, I am doing things for His Highness." ”

He said it seriously, but hesitated for a moment when the words fell.

Zhao Ying saw his hesitation, and was unhappy: "If you have something to say, just say it, since you know that I am the most unawkward, don't be like this." ”

"If Your Highness is powerful and has a stable position now, I'm afraid no one will dare to intercept and kill. His Royal Highness wants to set up a small Sili Academy, with His Royal Highness King Yan coming out for you, and there are hundreds of officials obstructing it, it is very difficult, now at this time, how can His Royal Highness protect the Cunningbo Mansion? ”

It's the truth, it's just not good.

Zhao Ying couldn't get angry.

The Bao Bai family is not burdened by Chen Shide, and Bao Kang Ningbo's mansion is comprehensive, which are two different things.

"Then be whatever you want."

But she lacked interest, and Du Zhiyi couldn't see it: "Becoming a big thing is not informal, Your Highness should know, right?" ”

Zhao Yinghu glanced at him suspiciously, and saw that the corners of his lips moved, and what he said was clearly the word Bai family.

She is not a saint and a bodhisattva, and she did think about it before, Chen Shide's case was returned to the Criminal Department, although the Criminal Department has physical evidence, but the first accuser is not Zhao Chengyan, but the Bai family.

If you want to do something on the Bai family and make a fuss, it is Chen Shide's talisman, and under the power of Emperor Zhaoning, there are still people who dare to make small moves, and at that time, Zhao Chengyan will take the lead, and the establishment of the Sili Academy will only be more imminent.

It's just that she agreed to Du Zhiyi first-

"That night, I remember that you asked me to promise you that the Bai family would retreat and leave the capital without being affected by Chen Shide's affairs?"

Zhao Ying's tone was a little calm, but he didn't want Du Zhiyi to chuckle: "I didn't ask His Highness to kill the Bai family now?" ”

However, he also breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought His Highness didn't expect this layer, it turned out that he was just believing in his words." ”

Zhao Ying could hear the implication of his words, and rolled his eyes: "It's stupid to believe in the enemy, if you can't even believe in your own people, what can you use to convince people?" ”

She changed her words and retracted her gaze: "But since you also have such thoughts, it is not untrustworthy." ”

·

It was unexpected for Zhao Ying to meet Shen Mingren when he came out of Yunyi Building.

She was nervous for no reason, and then suddenly remembered that Yunyi Building was Du Zhiyi's property, and he didn't have to go downstairs to see someone, and he would know that since he knew that Shen Mingren was here, he didn't want to reveal his secrets, so he wouldn't come out, but he didn't need to be afraid that Shen Mingren would find out about her private dealings with Du Zhiyi.

"Lord Xiao Shen, such a coincidence."

Zhao Ying's pleasant face made Shen Mingren's whole body comfortable, and he took two steps forward, kept a certain distance, and bowed his hand: "Your Highness, is you here to eat alone?" ”

She hummed: "Lord Xiao Shen made an appointment?" ”

Shen Mingren covered up the past and didn't mention it, but it attracted Zhao Ying's attention.

He works in the Criminal Department......

Zhao Ying's eyebrows curled: "Interrogating Chen Shide in the past two days, can Lord Xiao Shen participate?" ”

Shen Mingren sighed: "That's a case that Lord Shangshu personally intervened into, I haven't listened to it, Your Highness wants to know?" ”

She sighed: "Maybe Chen Shide sent someone to intercept me, of course I want to know, but Uncle Huang didn't ask me to go to the prison of the Criminal Department, I thought about Lord Xiao Shen working in the Criminal Department, and I thought you could know some inside information." ”

Her bright expression dimmed, and even the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were lowered, which was really pitiful.

Shen Mingren narrowed his eyes and took half a step back quietly: "Your Highness doesn't want me to take you to the prison of the Criminal Department to see Chen Shide, right?" ”

Zhao Yingcai raised his head again and looked at him: "You think too much, I really want to see him, go to the prison of the Criminal Department by myself, who dares to stop me from entering?" ”

"That's just as well." Shen Mingren's eyes continued to explore and scrutinize, "However, in a place like the prison of the Criminal Department, His Royal Highness is noble and not suitable for stepping in, so you should listen to His Royal Highness King Yan." This case alarmed the emperor, and there was a personal trial by Lord Shangshu, who would always give an explanation to His Royal Highness. ”

It is one thing to confess, and it is another thing to take back the right to handle the case.

But it's not good for her to expose the old bottom of the criminal department Shangshu now, and drag him into the water, otherwise the fool will know what she wants to do.

Chen Shide's family property, I'm afraid she really won't be able to touch a penny.

It hurts to think about it.

Zhao Ying raised his hand and covered his heart: "What Lord Xiao Shen said makes sense, then I won't disturb Lord Xiao Shen's friends." ”

She said as she stepped past Shen Mingren's side.

That sense of alienation came to my face.

Shen Mingren's eyebrows moved, and he subconsciously reached out and grabbed Zhao Ying's wrist.

realized that his abrupt offense was after touching Zhao Ying's sudden look.

He let go of his hand suddenly: "The minister is abrupt...... If His Royal Highness really wants to see Chen Shide and ask clearly, he might as well go and meet Lord Shangshu. Adults will always give His Highness this face, and bring people to the lobby of the Criminal Department, and His Highness will not be afraid of bad luck when he sees him in the hall. ”

Zhao Ying withdrew his hand and turned his wrist: "I have no official and no quality, and I broke into the lobby of the Criminal Department for nothing, does Lord Xiao Shen think that the official of the Imperial History is not enough to participate in me?" ”

Shen Mingren's lips stiffened: "Your Highness is comparable to the respect of the prince, and you don't have to be in charge of any department before you can set foot in the lobby of the Criminal Department." ”

It seems that the father and son of the Shen family have already discussed the matter of the Sili Academy.

Last time, Shen Mingren refuted Shen Dianchen's meaning in the Taiji Hall and stood on her side.

Hearing this now, the father and son finally breathed out of one nostril.

Zhao Ying lowered her face coldly: "I understand what Lord Xiao Shen means, but you might as well tell Uncle Huang about this." It's not my intention to set up the Sili Academy, but it was chosen by the emperor's uncle, and I just happened to be the main thing, how did it get to your mouth, and I became the one with cholera superclass?

When the imperial uncle refused to go to the northwest before, I heard that Shen Ge Lao even stopped the imperial uncle's frame, and now he said that he wanted to set up a Sili Academy, you asked Shen Ge Lao to go to the Yan Wangfu to find the imperial uncle's bad luck, what do you want me to do? ”

"The minister didn't mean that-" Shen Mingren saw that she had misunderstood, and hurriedly raised his voice to explain, "It's just that His Royal Highness is involved in it, and the minister looks really ...... Heart-wrenching. It is not His Royal Highness's intention to set up the Sili Academy, and it is not His Royal Highness's wish to be in charge of the Sili Academy, so His Royal Highness returned to His Royal Highness King Yan and asked His Royal Highness King Yan to reject this thought, wouldn't it be troublesome? ”

"Shen Mingren, did you make an appointment to meet friends for dinner, or did you find out that I was in Yunyi Building and came to stop me from saying this?"
