Chapter 365 Let the Tiger Return to the Mountain
Wu House.
Ye Zhi came here after leaving the palace, it was pouring rain outside, he and Wu Shilang were drinking in the hall, talking about things that were beneficial and interesting to each other.
"Major General, I still say the same thing, the young general's great kindness to the Wu family, the Wu family is unforgettable, this cup is to the young general, if the young general has a place to use the Wu family in the future, just open your mouth." Wu Shilang said seriously, and raised his glass to toast Ye Zhi.
Ye Zhi only smiled and drank the wine in the cup with Wu Shilang.
The next person came to pay tribute: "Master, the concubine Niangniang sent someone to say that she had something important to report." ”
"Please invite him to the side hall ......" As soon as Wu Shilang's words came out, his gaze turned to Ye Zhi. He was still showing his loyalty, and now he was going to speak behind the back of the young general, which was really inappropriate, so he changed his words, "Please come here." ”
A palace maid hurriedly entered, bowed and said: "I have seen the squire, the mother asked the slave to tell the lord that things have changed......
When Ye Zhi heard this, he looked at the wine in the cup with heavy eyes, and was slightly surprised: "Things? ”
Wu Shilang's face immediately revealed a little uneasiness, since the major general had already asked, he couldn't hide it, so he had to tell the young general everything truthfully.
Ye Zhi's hand holding the wine glass paused in mid-air, and the smile on his lips gradually stiffened.
Before the palace maid finished what she said just now, Wu Shilang hurriedly asked, "Tell me quickly, why has there changed?" ”
"Lord Hui, Your Majesty did bump into Mei Fu Yin and Li Guiren in the room, and brought the two to the Qianyuan Hall for questioning, everything was originally smooth, Your Majesty even waved a sword to behead this pair of adulterers and adulteresses, who knew that Mei Fu Yin suddenly confessed that she was a woman."
Wu Shilang was shocked: "What, she is a woman?" ”
"The female official has verified her identity, Meifu Yin Qianzhen is indeed a woman, and she looks like a flower, and the result not only makes Your Majesty angry, but also moved her heart......"
Ye Zhi didn't say a word, his hand was still there, and the wine glass in his hand quietly slipped out and smashed on the table.
Even though the wine drenched his clothes, he didn't come back to his senses.
Wu Shilang was still incredulous, "Is this true? ”
The palace maid nodded vigorously, "My lord, it's true, Niangniang is afraid that His Majesty will not only not deal with it, but will also include her in the harem, so she asked the slave maid to ask the lord and the lord of the country to have an idea." ”
Wu Shilang was at a loss, and wanted to ask Ye Zhi for advice, "Young General, how is this good?" ”
This time he still couldn't finish his words, the young general had already abandoned the wine glass and got up, didn't even bother to play the umbrella, rushed straight into the rain, and rushed out of the mansion......
The rain was pouring down, and Ye Zhi rode a horse and galloped in the rain.
Wu Shilang told him that his father-in-law had taken great pains to dismount for Lamei Xiaoren, and had prepared a game early.
He first borrowed the hand of the concubine to send the portrait of Miss Li to His Majesty, and asked His Majesty to appoint her to enter the palace; then asked the concubine to gain the trust of Miss Li in the palace, confirmed that Miss Li had affection for Mei Xiaoren, and then designed to make Miss Li suffer some hardships, so that she missed Mei Xiaoren more and more; In the end, the concubine took Miss Li's token and asked Mei Xiaoren to enter the harem......
Mei Xiaoren and the Li family have a deep friendship, this is simply a trap tailored for her!
In fact, these are not enough to make him panic, what makes him flustered is...... She was a woman.
Ye Zhi knew that he couldn't enter the palace, so he rode his horse to the Wei State Mansion, and learned that his father-in-law had already set off one step ahead of him, so he rushed to the palace non-stop.
Now all that flashed in his mind was her appearance in the southern suburbs, her clothes, her makeup, her smile...... It all seemed to be seared into his heart......
He was so stupid that he didn't even notice it for years of getting along day and night.
Ye Zhi came to the palace gate, the heavy rain was still falling, and the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion was still parked outside the palace gate and did not move.
The carriage of the Duke of Wei was also there, and his father-in-law was the only one who could take him into the palace.
Ye Zhi dismounted and walked towards the palace gate, and within a few steps, he saw a light at the palace gate. Two palace maids led the way in front with lanterns, and eunuchs held umbrellas in the back.
There were two people under the umbrella, a man holding a woman with long flowing hair. They were walking towards the right side of the palace gate, where the carriage of the Prime Minister was parked.
Ye Zhi stopped moving, watching Gu Chuyu carry her and board the carriage, and then watch the carriage leave the palace......
He was alone in the heavy rain, and let the shower pour him thoroughly, in addition to regret and hatred, there were worries in his heart, worried about whether she would be hurt before she would be taken away by Gu Xiang in such a way.
Qianyuan Palace.
When Wei Guogong walked into the main hall, the concubines had already retreated, and only Emperor Tianhong, the Queen Mother, Haoyang and Ji Nanrou were left in the palace.
"See Your Majesty." Wei Guogong arched his hand and sighed again, "Your Majesty, the minister is late, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me." ”
He had met the person who had left in the vestibule square just now, and even though he had heard that Mei Xiaoren was a woman, he was still shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.
At that time, Gu Xiang hugged her and braved the wind and rain, he saluted, but Gu Chuyu turned a blind eye, and was a little angry and frivolous.
Haoyang rolled his eyes, "Even if Lord Guogong comes early, he may not be able to deal with anyone." ”
Wei Guogong frowned, puzzled: "Your Majesty, letting Mei Xiaoren go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion is like letting the tiger return to the mountain, and it will be difficult to arrest her and punish her again, why is Your Majesty not like last time, putting pressure on Gu Xiang and locking her up first?" ”
Emperor Tianhong rubbed the corners of his forehead, not wanting to answer.
"You don't have to complain, Gu Xiang called one lady at a time, how dare Your Majesty touch her?" The Queen Mother sighed.
"Ma'am?"
Haoyang grinded his back molars and buried his head in anger: "Brother Yu said that they have a marriage contract, and they just have to visit the church to get married." ”
Wei Guogong said: "So what, the Son of Heaven is still guilty of the same crime as the common people when he breaks the law." ”
The Queen Mother had a sad face, "She seems to be pregnant, and Gu Xiang is also trying her best to maintain it, if it is true, it is the eldest son and grandson of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and it is the Jiang family who suffers if she is a little worse." ”
Wei Guogong showed a helpless look on his face when he heard this, and he arched his hand towards Emperor Tianhong, "Your Majesty rest assured, the ministers will do their best to help Your Majesty recover the imperial power as soon as possible, no one will dare to be so presumptuous in front of Your Majesty from now on!" ”
"I know that you are loyal, since you are here, I will go to see Ei'er, teach him well for me on weekdays, and talk about other things when you have the ability." Emperor Tianhong was a little impatient, and after speaking, he got up and left.
His Majesty's words were like a basin of cold water, and the Queen Mother was busy comforting Wei Guogong: "Your Majesty wants the stability of the country, and when you are not sure, you want to fight with the Prime Minister, and it will damage the foundation of Daning, and Your Majesty is naturally unhappy." ”
Wei Guogong said solemnly: "Stability? If Daning can continue to be at this peak for a long time, will Your Majesty want to be controlled by the Prime Minister's Mansion for generations? ”
"Okay, Your Majesty doesn't like to be entangled in government affairs, but Rong'er is different, you go and see Rong'er, he is the person you should have high hopes for."
Wei Guogong nodded, and was about to leave, when he saw that there was another person beside the Queen Mother besides Princess Haoyang, a person with six gods and no master.
He looked at Ji Nan and said, "Rou'er, you have heard it, Gu Xiang not only has a wife, but also an heir, and the rest of the words should not be said to you for the sake of your father, you should think about it yourself!" ”
Ji Nanrou's eyes were blank, and she still looked absent-minded......
