Chapter 116 There is no fate

Guo Zhaobin was a little disgraced when he left.

Xue Xianting watched him lead people out of the gate of Sili Courtyard, smiling very presumptuously, completely looking like he was watching the excitement.

After all, there are still the patrols and captains on errands, he is too presumptuous and always gives people a handle, and makes people gossip in plain terms, so Zhao Ying slapped him on the arm: "Have you laughed enough?" ”

He pursed his lips, probably thinking that she was making a big fuss and didn't care at all, but he still restrained himself and took away the smile on his face: "Guo Zhaobin has been showing off his martial arts all these years, and he is so proud of his majesty, seeing him eat deflated like this, he doesn't dare to return the mouth with a belly of anger, and he can't laugh enough." ”

"What is he so majestic with me? What are you proud of? Zhao Ying's eyes turned cold, "According to what you said, I went to my father to accuse him of pouring dirty water on me today, and you testified to me in Sili Academy, and he couldn't tell it clearly." ”

As she spoke, she turned around and entered the door, Xue Xianting followed her quickly, and heard Zhao Ying say slowly: "Yan Chongzhi ran to me two days ago and said those words, which shows that in my father's heart, he still intends to support and promote Che'er.

They have been officials in the court for more than ten years, or even decades, and they are better than us in the affairs of the court. ”

Xue Xianting savored these words: "What you said is also true, if you sharpen your head all your life, you have to climb up, and none of them are fuel-efficient lamps." ”

"So, Yan Chongzhi didn't say anything, but his father opened this mouth with him, and he also came to me to try it out for some reason, I thought in my heart that it would be sooner or later."

With her hands behind her back, she stepped on the blue-limestone brick-paved road step by step, very slowly and elegantly: "I've been running fast recently, Shen Dianchen and Jiang Chengde have suppressed me so many times, and it doesn't help, those people know in their hearts that it is my father and uncle who are protecting me."

They also took advantage of my lack of deep foundation to create some trouble for me, otherwise seeing that I was steadily fighting under the neutrality of the DPRK, wouldn't they be even more unable to move me at all?

Now that you're back in Beijing, cousin Yunjia......

I never asked him about the big and small things in Si Liyuan, and he didn't take the initiative to mention it to me.

What kind of person is he from childhood to adulthood......"

At this point, Xue Xianting's face darkened, obviously remembering what kind of attitude he had when he met Song Yunjia outside King Yan's mansion.

Zhao Ying saw that his face was not good, and sighed with a smile: "In private, we all know that he is still dissatisfied with my entry into the court.

Ke Mingli, standing on the Taiji Hall, he is always willing to speak to me.

With the Marquis of Guangning and the Song family as my backers, Shen Mingren said those frank words in Yunyi Building, and next year my uncle will be promoted to the secretary of the ministry.

After this kind of calculation, don't people want to find trouble for me?

Or ruin my reputation, or make my father think that I am not doing well, and so on. ”

"You can see it thoroughly." Xue Xianting paused slightly, "Then these ordinary people, what are you going to do?" ”

"You heard what they said just now." Zhao Ying took three or two steps forward, and realized that there was no one behind him, so he stopped and turned around, and didn't ask anything else, "Do you know this when you were in Gansu Chahu first?" ”

This matter in the northwest is very important, and it is the first major event that Xue Xianting is far away from the capital and handles it himself.

On that day, he invited himself to go to the northwest for Zhao Ying's words, and when he returned home, he was scolded.

But after his father scolded him, he told him to be cautious, and he must do this errand well, and he must not lose the face of several generations of the Marquis of Guangning.

At that time in Gansu, he really didn't dare to relax for a moment, although he didn't work day and night, but out of twelve hours a day, he was busy investigating the case for six or seven hours.

The details, as for today, are still deeply remembered.

He nodded at first, but before Zhao Ying could ask him, he shook his head again.

Zhao Ying raised her eyebrows: "What are you doing?" ”

"I checked Hu Wei first, Gu folded into Beijing, and the chapter was detailed, and this matter was written very clearly in the recital - Gansu was the most severely affected, Hu Wei was the governor of a province, but he couldn't borrow grain from other provinces, and even after the imperial court ordered to open a warehouse for grain relief, he still refused to open a granary, but instead said that there was no grain to give, and asked the court to transfer grain from a neighboring province to Gansu."

When he said this, he was still angry, and his voice unconsciously became much duller: "Everywhere the common people gathered around the government and refused to leave, and even surrounded his governor's house, Hu Weixian not only tried his best to appease the people, but ordered the arrest of people, and indeed put the leader in the government prison on the charge of making trouble for the people.

But this is all what we learned from the people when we investigated.

When I first arrived in Gansu, you didn't say this in your letter, and His Royal Highness King Jin and I thought that Hu Weixian was really a good official dedicated to the people.

It was later mentioned in your letter, saying that what kind of mountain bandits, that is, outlaws, and did not go out to oppose the imperial court to this point, and told me to pay attention to the officials of Gansu Province.

At that time, all the people who were arrested had already been released, and no one could say exactly who took the lead in the trouble, and when they were released. ”

"So you just think that there is a word of mouth from the people in the market, and this matter is evidence that Hu Weixian can't get rid of, and you don't want to bother to know who was arrested in prison."

Zhao Ying took his words and gave him a blank look: "It's true, but whether people are like these people, you don't know, right?" ”

Xue Xianting was obviously a little embarrassed: "After all, it's the first time I've gone out on an errand, and I haven't thought about some things carefully enough, and I really didn't expect such a thing to happen today......

Hu Weixian's case is so big, and there are still people in the court who dare to make a fuss about this case, which is quite fatal, right? ”

Zhao Ying sneered in her heart.

It's just that some people can die just for the sake of power.

Besides, this road is a life-and-death struggle, and whoever spares his life will only have a dead end in the end.

However, what Xue Xianting said is also reasonable.

Zhao Ying sighed: "No one could have thought that there would be people in the capital who would do such an article, but now it's too late to send people to Gansu." I asked someone to inform Du Zhiyi, and arranged for some people from all walks of life to inquire about some news and test the tone. ”

Xue Xianting probably didn't agree, and his face was slightly gloomy: "People have the intention to make trouble for you, how can they casually ask someone to probe your mouth?" ”

"That's all oil, wandering around the market all day long, the most good at looking at people's eyes and inquiring about news, otherwise what is Du Zhiyi raising them for?" Zhao Ying rolled her eyelids again, "If even they can't find something, these so-called ordinary people are really the problem." ”

He suddenly understood: "Didn't you tie up the safety of these people with the Si Liyuan in a big way, and you justifiably sent people to monitor them?" ”

"But if they really come to seek justice for the victims, and all their expenses in the capital will be paid by the household department, I think it is understandable, and even when they leave the capital in the future, I can give them a sum of silver each."

Zhao Ying raised his eyes to look at him: "You must always think more about everything, think about the good, think about the bad."

I have never been to the Northwest, let alone for disaster relief, but natural and man-made disasters, the most suffering is always the common people.

Even in a catastrophic year, will people like us still lack food and clothing?

But they can't. ”

She hasn't had a hard life, never.

Sometimes I think about it, she is actually happy.

In her heart, her father, who has been loved for more than ten years, is actually not her biological father, and even her mother was forcibly robbed into the palace.

maintained, her own brother who has loved her for more than ten years, because of her background, she wants her to die.

Although she died under the bowl of medicine by Zhao Che and Shen Mingren, her death was miserable, and she was even more painful before she died, but these unbearable truths, the suffocating net, were already the last moment of her life at the moment when they swept in.

If it weren't for God's extra kindness to let her start over in life, after her death, all this would have disappeared with her death.

It is said that life is short, but if you really want to calculate it, the hardest and most difficult days in her previous life were just the two or three years that supported Zhao Che to take the position.

But even at that time, she had no worries about food and clothing, and she was the eldest princess who was the most beloved by the Son of Heaven.

So people always think that she Zhao Ying has a good life.

If she were an outsider, she would have thought that this life was really good.

was born to be the proud daughter of the sky, and gradually grew into a good husband, his younger brother Yuji became the emperor, respected her, let her be the regent princess, and be the most noble woman in the world, who can live better than her?

She was distracted, and Xue Xianting shook his hand in front of her eyes several times before she suddenly came back to her senses.

Xue Xianting looked at her with a good eyebrow: "What are you thinking?" ”

Her eyes were full of mockery, but there was an indescribable weirdness.

It's not like it's for the Northwest Thing, it's not like it's for Hu Weixian's case, and it's not like it's for those "ordinary people" who may have been arranged by someone and have unknown origins.

She was thinking about something else, something he didn't know.

Of course, Zhao Ying shook her head and said no: "If I have the opportunity, I really want to go out for a walk, instead of being trapped in the capital for the rest of my life, it used to be Shangyang Palace, now it is Yanwang Mansion, and it will be my princess's mansion in the future." ”

"If you really see it, you will regret it."

Her eyebrows moved slightly: "It seems that you have a lot of feelings in the northwest line." ”

Except for the matters related to Hu Weixian's case and the specific arrangements for disaster relief, Xue Xianting did not mention anything else to the northwest this time.

And only today did Zhao Ying know that Xue Xianting also covered up many things in the details and did not tell her.

This is not a cover-up.

It's just that in his heart, she shouldn't know this.

He wants her to be carefree, to be a happy girl, to live a life full of light and beauty, and to live forever in the sun.

The filthy, the dark, he didn't want her to be tainted.

Even if she is now in the court and there is no way to avoid it, he wants her to be as little contaminated as possible.

Zhao Ying took a small half step forward: "You know what it means to be happy with the people, right?" ”

Xue Xianting made her confused: "What do you want to say?" ”

"But I think it's right to share the suffering with the people."

She saw the corners of Xue Xianting's mouth move, and didn't let him speak: "Share weal and woe, isn't this what you say?" Whether it is in the history books or classics, even my father's mouth is usually open and closed, and he is happy with the people, which is really difficult for me to understand.

The Son of Heaven always says that all the people of the world are his people, but when his people are in dire straits, where is the Son of Heaven? ”

She raised her hand, and the direction of her fingertips was the direction of Miyagi: "That Miyagi, majestic and magnificent, the Son of Heaven is there." ”

Xue Xianting's pupils were shocked, and he was about to cover her mouth, so he hurriedly swept around, and was relieved to see that no one was there: "Are you crazy?" I think you've been in the court for a long time, and you're stupid, which is very disrespectful! ”

"Others say it's disrespectful, I say it's a suggestion to my father, and I didn't tell anyone else."

Zhao Ying was still smiling, the corners of her lips were raised, and she didn't care: "Do you just say that what I said makes sense?" ”

Of course, there is a reason, and he understands what she means.

So what she did......

"Do you think that the emperor can't share the suffering with the people, sit on the high platform for a long time, and no longer feel the pain of the people, and Zhao Che will not be able to do it in the future, right?"

Zhao Ying said yes without thinking, the voice was sonorous and powerful, and it firmly made people's hearts tremble: "None of them can do it." ”

"What about you? You think you can do it, so you think you will be better than them, splendid mountains and rivers, a prosperous era of Qi, only you can create? ”

Zhao Ying squinted: "Do you think I can't do it?" ”

They didn't talk about it openly and honestly.

And she has always been almost paranoid that Xue Xianting will support her unconditionally, just like her uncle and cousin.

But his tone was indifferent, and her breath was sluggish: "Or do you think I'm not worthy?" ”

"I think you can do it, and I think you deserve it."

Xue Xianting's warm palm fell on top of her head: "It's just too difficult, and it's too bitter." ”

The girl he loves, what she wants to do, is shocking, and she must overcome obstacles along the way.

Either Caesar or nothing.

But even if she does, it's the top of no one.

The girl he wanted to take with him since he was a child and took care of him all his life, if one day, really let her sit in that position......

She doesn't want a child's affection.

What Zhao Ying wants is Haiyan Heqing, a prosperous world.

She didn't know when her heart had become so big.

A strong sense of powerlessness rose in Xue Xianting's heart.

He couldn't stop her, and he couldn't stop her.

With such a difficult road, he was even more reluctant for her to go alone, no matter what, he wanted to accompany her and guard her.

But he had to watch his little girl's heart harden as iron, and completely cut off any possibility between them.

Zhao Ying seemed to understand something from Xue Xianting's eyes, and she hesitated for a long time before raising her arm and holding his hand.

After only a moment's backgrip, she let go and patted him on the shoulder: "With you with me, no matter how difficult it is, I am not afraid of my own choice." ”

You guys.

The light in Xue Xianting's eyes went out.

He and Zhao Ying are probably destined by God to be inseparable.
