Chapter 123: So It Was Like It
After everyone had lunch, Ye Xiaoyan knew that Nangong Chen had something to say when she was looking for Nangong You, so she called someone else to go to the office, and only Nangong You and Nangong Chen were left in the private room.
The waiter came in with a pot of tea, put it on the low coffee table, poured the tea and went out.
Nangong You pointed at the dwarf and said, "Go and sit over there." ”
Nangong Chen took a cushion and sat upright. Nangong You took a pillow and leaned on it.
Nangong Chen has always seen the three emperor brothers upright, and he has never seen him so lazy.
Nangong You asked, "What do you want to talk to me about?" ”
Nangong Chen thought about the wording and said: "Yesterday, Prime Minister Ye Cheng came to see my mother, and asked my mother to help him tell several ministers that he was willing to pay a high price to take back the treasured calligraphy and paintings that his uncle gave them before." Later, I learned that it was the Three Emperor Brothers who asked Ye Fu to return the dowry of that year, and the treasured calligraphy and paintings he sent out were the dowry gifts that the Three Emperor Brothers gave to Ye Fu that year. He also said that his father ordered him to return the dowry clearly and when to go to the court. ”
Nangong You's expression was faint, and he didn't react, he had expected this. Ye Fusheng is used to taking a roundabout route, and people talk to him around the corner.
Nangong Chen said: "Brother Sanhuang, the things that have been sent out have to come back again, which is really difficult. I don't know, can I use something else to offset it? ”
"With what?" Nangong asked nonchalantly.
"This ......" Nangong Chen was not good at making decisions for Ye Fusheng, and said: "As long as the third emperor brother agrees to use other things, my uncle will discuss the rest." ”
"Heh" Nangong You chuckled lightly and asked, "Is it Ye Fusheng who asked you to help him be a lobbyist?" Or did your mother ask you to come? ”
Nangong Chen's face was embarrassed. In fact, in front of his mother, Ye Fusheng didn't say that he would let his mother go to the emperor to intercede for him, nor did he say that he would come to the Third Emperor Brother to help him be a lobbyist, but his mother took the initiative to tell his uncle to be calm and not be impatient, and wait for him to come to the Third Emperor Brother to discuss and discuss, and then see what to do next.
Nangong Chen said: "It was my mother who asked me to come." ”
Nangong You raised his eyes and glanced at Nangong Chen, and said, "It's a good thing that Ye Guifei cares about the feelings of brotherhood, but be careful not to be taken advantage of by someone with a heart. ”
Nangong Chen also felt that his uncle was a little pretentious, and he obviously wanted his mother to help him intercede, but he didn't say it, he just talked about his difficulties.
Nangong Chen asked: "So, Brother Three Emperors, ...... this matter?" ”
Nangong You said: "It's better for you and your mother to leave it alone and find an excuse to shirk it." Whether it's talking to me or going to the minister's house to help him ask for something. ”
Nangong Chen hesitated, and he hadn't figured out how to say the next sentence.
Nangong You asked: "Regarding the matter sent by the Ye Mansion Wang Clan to Dali Temple, did Ye Fusheng go to your mother's concubine?" ”
"I found it."
"He wants your mother to intercede for him?"
"Nope. He only said that he was going to divorce the Wang family. ”
Nangong You sneered and said, "Didn't he not leave the Wang family." ”
Nangong Chen thought for a while and said, "That day, my father talked to me and warned me. said that although my mother concubine is from the Ye family, my surname is Nangong and I am from the Nangong family. said that the Nangong family's country should be guarded by the people of the Nangong family, so that I have time to ask the three emperor brothers for martial arts. On that day, I also told my mother what my father said, and my mother probably didn't take the initiative to intercede for my uncle because of what my father said. ”
Nangong You looked up at Nangong Chen, it turned out that his father had knocked on the side and told him.
Nangong thought about it, although the fourth emperor brother was not close to him, they were the same father after all, and they were connected by blood, so he said: "A few days ago, Ye Wanting, the eldest lady of the Ye Mansion, came to Xuanwang Mansion to find me and asked me to divorce Yan'er and marry her as a concubine. ”
Nangong Chen was shocked when he heard this, there was such a thing.
Nangong You continued: "Ye Wanting told me that marrying her can get the help of the Ye Mansion and the Wang family, and can help me ascend to the throne of the crown prince. ”
Nangong Chen was shocked, is this eldest cousin crazy to dare to say such a thing. Not to mention that the Wang family still has to rely on the Ye Mansion, and the Ye Mansion still has to rely on his mother...... Wait a minute! Nangong Chen suddenly realized.
Nangong You said: "At that time, I asked her, is this her own idea, or what Ye Fusheng meant?" She said that Wang had discussed with Ye Fusheng that this was the family's idea. ”
Nangong You looked at him with a shocked expression, and added: "Ye Wanting's words, my father and emperor have heard them with their own ears." ”
Nangong Chen only felt a "buzz" in his head, his heart jumped in a panic, and cold sweat seeped out of his back.
This is a capital crime of raiding the house and destroying the door! No wonder his father said that to him. It's hard to say, maybe my father thought that the Ye family's rebellious thoughts had been discussed with his mother. If they can do this to the Three Emperor Brothers, they can do the same to him. And logically speaking, if the Ye family wants to support someone to be the crown prince, maybe he is more convenient than the third emperor brother.
Nangong Chen had a feeling that he and his mother were about to be killed, and hurriedly said to Nangong You: "Third Emperor Brother, my mother and I never knew about these things!" Except for the fact that their Ye family would come to my mother when they asked for help, they never told me and my mother about other things! ”
Nangong You saw that this kid was frightened, pushed the teacup on the table in front of him, and said, "Don't worry, take a sip of tea." Father was only angry with Ye Fusheng, but he was not angry with you and your mother. After all, your surname is Nangong, and Concubine Ye is also a gentle and generous person. If your father really had anything to say to you and your mother, he wouldn't have said that to you. The father attaches the most importance to family affection, we just need to do our duty and know what we should do and what we should not do. ”
Nangong Chen was still in a cold sweat, he didn't expect things to be like this. He knew that Ye Xiaoyan was injured when she returned to Ye Mansion, that Ye Wanting of the Wang family was sentenced by Dali Temple, and that several people went to confront his father. He always thought that this was because of the change of daughter and marriage, and he held a grudge against Ye Fu and waited for an opportunity to take revenge, and his father defended the three emperor brothers because he loved them.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be like this! The Ye family has a heart of disobedience, and the father is using the matter of the three emperor brothers to attack the Ye family.
Nangong Chen thought of his stupid mother, Ye Fusheng didn't tell the truth to his mother, and his mother was used by him like this. Fortunately, the three emperor brothers told him the truth today, otherwise, maybe one day he and his mother were imprisoned in the prison, and they didn't know what was wrong.
Nangong Chen looked at Nangong You with gratitude, and said sincerely: "Thank you, Third Emperor Brother!" ”。
Nangong smiled and didn't say anything. Even if he is not close to these brothers of his, they are also his blood brothers. If one day in the future, he has many sons, he will also hope that they will go on a blind date and help each other.
