Chapter 193: The Bet

"But Lord Shangshu refuses to let go, and we can't say anything, His Royal Highness has not returned to Beijing, and the prince is here alone, so he can't listen to the prince for everything!"

Lord Dong is still inquiring about the news of the crown prince, there has been no news from the East Palace for several months, even the secret guards and some officials have withdrawn from the capital, and the remaining oranges are either really pure ministers, or they have already stood on Xue Muyan's team.

Speaking of which, the two old men understood that there was anything to find out about the prince, it was obviously to see if he could tell him which team to stand on, but as far as the current situation was concerned, it was Xue Muyan's people in the imperial city, and it seemed that he couldn't say anything if he didn't stand in line.

"Lord Dong, I heard that most of the Shangshu of the six departments have already chosen their own path, do you want to throw stones to ask for directions, or do you want to stand in line!"

Where can Master Dong say what is in his heart, and he can't hide it from the two old foxes in front of him After laughing awkwardly a few times, he planned to leave, but he didn't expect that Hubu Shangshu would visit here after a long absence, and he happened to see his subordinates.

"Lord Chu doesn't ask his subordinates, why did he come here?" Fu Zheng has long looked at people uncomfortable, seeing people talking about people, talking nonsense, not a word in his mouth is true, and he didn't dare to say his purpose directly when he came here to inquire about the news, so he said secretly, and he couldn't ask the reason until now.

How could Lord Chu not know the purpose of this person's coming, and he had to hide his face, so he took out the holy decree in his hand and handed it to the little fox.

"Your Majesty said before that if something happens one day, I will hand over this decree to you, and it is up to you to choose what to do with it after that."

There are only those things in a holy decree, and a few of them know it even if they don't open it, but this Lord Dong is here for this holy decree, but he didn't expect him to hand it over to Fu Zheng now.

Anxious and didn't dare to speak, looking at the faces of the two old men, he had no choice but to step aside, and borrowed Fu Zheng to carry the holy decree into his arms, and then replied to Lord Chu with a letter, which was regarded as having something to prove that he had received it.

"You go back too, there are still a lot of things in this household department, and now there are only a few of you left in the six departments, if you have the ability, you will also be in charge of the criminal department."

Fu Zheng came back for a few days, the six departments have met a lot of people, and they have a lot of understanding of the current situation of the six departments, and a few of the above have already stood on the side of the prince, and their hearts can't be pulled back, and there are some big families who secretly stuff people in, and everything he can stop has been stopped, and the rest depends on Xue Muyan's own creation.

"Elder Ning, I recently heard that Your Majesty's health is not very good, if you have time to go into the palace to accompany Your Majesty, if you have any heart, you master and apprentice should also talk a lot, as courtiers, we can also listen to some holy will."

Always scolding people where can they stand this anger, they are left to be left unattended, and this stinky adult still has a smile on the faces of the two old men, not only to accompany the talk, even the tea last time is better, I feel uncomfortable, naturally I will not have a good face When I was about to leave, I found that the people in this house seemed to be broken, and those who stayed were either secret guards with kung fu in their hands, and they were all some old, weak, sick and disabled.

"A few days ago, I heard that there were a batch of good things in the capital, just among the various pharmacies, the two adults are not young, winter is coming, or buy more medicines to prepare for tonic." After finishing speaking, he threw up his sleeves and left him, no one answered the question in his heart, and he took advantage of the departure to look at some places near Ning Mansion.

The more he walked in front, the more wrong it was, he could always feel that there were people following him behind him, it seemed that Ning Hao was not completely able to trust himself, otherwise, where did the people behind him come from?

"Old thing, I just want to take a smooth career, and if you refuse to give me news, I have no choice?"

The carriage turned towards the alley on the left, and came to a dark room, where the news of the world was spread, as long as there was money, he could buy it, and he had bought a lot of news here, otherwise he would not have succeeded in the struggle of the imperial court, and preserved his strength to this day.

"As for the masters of your family, there is big news to buy today, and the silver will not be less than yours." There was anger in his tone, and when he saw it, he understood, and withdrew from the back of the darkroom.

The old man's body looked very bad, he had been coughing since he came out, and sometimes he was able to cough up blood, so he took a few messages from behind, and the price code on the table was going to go in, who knew that Lord Dong didn't touch the news, because he didn't come to ask for these things at all.

"I heard that someone in the rivers and lakes is betting on the throne, the dark room provides news, and secretly makes a comparison, I want to buy the news that I can win that side."

The rules in the secret visit have always been that the one with the highest price gets it, and the Lord Dong in front of him, the amount of money that his family can take out is also limited, and the most important thing is that he has always had a career, and they also feel hopeless.

"Adults don't have to bother talking, you have always understood the rules of secret visits, if I sell this news, my master will definitely not be able to spare me, and the things circulating in the rivers and lakes have always been true and false, you might as well wait for some time to have new news flow out, and when you come to me again, you will definitely get what you want."

Not to mention how much oil and water he has made in the officialdom, let's just say that all the gifts they have given him over the years add up to enough for him to eat in the darkroom for a few years.

"Wait a few days, the official wants to wait, will the people outside let me wait? I might as well make the news clearer, and I can take it back and discuss it with my colleagues. ”

"All major events in the world have meaning, the darkroom has never only watched the affairs of the world, and did not ask about the struggle of the imperial court, if you have the intention to let us get involved in the struggle, we naturally can't accept Lord Dong, please leave."

A man who walked in from the outside happened to meet the Master Dong, and he saw this person handsome and delicate, and the fragrance of the sachet in his hand was very strong, and he could smell it from a distance.

"What is this person asking about, why did he leave with such a stinky face, did you mess with my business?" He is the young master of this dark room, and he has come here not only for news, but more importantly, he has come to see who else in the capital can do business, after all, everyone wants to stand in line at this time, and silver is also the easiest to deceive.

"That person came to ask about the gambling game on the rivers and lakes, not only that, but also secretly threatened us, the young master has nothing to do, please leave early, otherwise when we all leave, you will have to stay here alone."

"I just arrived in the capital, you plan to leave, could it be that you have an opinion on me, my father said that you have to take care of me, if I have anything wrong, I will ask you."

The other people who made secret visits were ready to leave, after all, this place was no longer safe, according to the temperament of that Lord Dong, within three days, they had to find a way to find someone to come here to make trouble, and it would not be good to leave when the time came.

The handsome son was not happy, but he also understood, found a place to sit there and watch them pack up quietly, but he was thinking about other businesses, I heard that there is a Si Mei Zhai in the capital, where not only rouge gouache is extremely famous, but also the news is extremely well-informed, according to usual, this place is also a good place to make money.

"The situation in the capital is very chaotic, no one dares to stand in line now, the prince is stationed outside the capital, and the prince is serving the emperor in the palace, there is no last holy decree, no one knows what the final situation will be, so you should leave the capital as soon as possible, but it is safer in other places or go to Guanwai first according to the will of the lord."

He may have guessed that his father was also involved, and even made a big bet to stand in line that he shouldn't stand, so he couldn't go.

"What you say is not right, my father gambled money, and if the son doesn't watch for my father, the morality of the rivers and lakes is gone."

The shopkeeper himself couldn't explain it, so he covered his mouth and went to the attic, and at this moment, Lord Dong Ming glanced back and found that the door of the secret visit had been closed, and there seemed to be some sparse movement around.

"Sure enough, it's not a good thing, Lao Tzu just came and you left, isn't it news?"

Lu Xiaowan on the other side is very entangled now, whether she should leave him or stay here, she is already restless in the room, whether she wants to eat or sleep or not.

"We're going back to the capital."

When Lu Xiaowan heard the voice outside, she was still a little expectant, and after opening the door, she saw Xue Muyan standing there stupidly, with a little expectation in her eyes, it seemed that she hoped that she would return to the capital with him.

"I know, so I'm packing up my things, let's go back to the capital together, let's talk about the future later, it's my fault as far as the past is concerned, since I misunderstood you, I should untie my heart knot."

When she said these words, in fact, no one forgave the other party, because in the depths of her heart, she still couldn't forgive him, and there was a somewhat perfunctory smile on her face, Xue Muyan nodded and went downstairs after nodding her head at the moment.

The grandmother next to the concubine was already waiting downstairs, telling me about Xue Muyan A concubine should know her identity, if it is always so chaotic, the harem will inevitably be chaotic in the future.

"The prince forgives the slave and the maid bluntly, Miss Lu's identity is here, and she will be just a concubine in the future, you will not only be used to it, but it will also make the people in the harem respect and inferiority in the future."

When she spoke, she didn't notice that Xue Muyan's face was already very bad, and she was going to continue, and the people who had been following her took Mama away cleanly.

"Don't, let her go on, where did I come from, I only have one wife in my life, no matter what my identity is, there is only one." After saying that, he threw his sleeves and left, it was not the first time he had heard such a thing.
