Chapter 328: Xia Guo's Tricks
I don't know if it's because there is no palace maid to serve and comb, Haoyang's clothes are dressed casually, and his hair is only coiled behind his head with a hosta, and he walks slowly to the front of the Frost Palace.
Haoyang glanced at Mei Xiaoren proudly, and met Gu Chuyu's gaze in a blink of an eye, so her arrogance was replaced by a weak heart, and she bowed and said, "Brother Yu, what happened last night ......"
"Thank you for the princess's hospitality, for the sake of the princess, some things will not be pursued for the time being, and I hope the princess will do it herself in the future."
Gu Chuyu said the word "go" to Mei Xiaoren, took her, and walked down the steps.
The palace maids stepped back and gave way, and Mei Xiaoren and Gu Chuyu passed by Haoyang, who was standing still.
After they walked a distance, Haoyang shouted behind him: "Brother Yu, Mei Fu Yin was so disrespectful to me last night, shouldn't you punish him?" ”
Gu Chuyu's footsteps did not stop, leaving a faint sentence: "The princess still doesn't understand the meaning of her true appearance?" ”
Haoyang was silent, why didn't she understand, so even if she was unwilling, she had to swallow the bitter water into her stomach and send the two away with angry eyes.
Where did she dare to let him punish Mei Xiaoren, when he said "not to be investigated" before, he added the word "temporary" in front, which is to remind her that she has to continue to do what she should do, for example, if Li Guiren has a good person, he will expose her bottom like this!
The figures of the two had disappeared at the end of the corridor, and Haoyang was so anxious that he stomped his feet, "Brother Yu, how can you do this to me!" ”
The carriage leaves the palace.
In the car, Mei Xiaoren pillowed on Gu Chuyu's shoulder and closed his eyes to recuperate, he held her hand, and said to her while she was still asleep: "Xiao Xiao, Wei Shuying has reconciled with the Zhu family. ”
Mei Xiaoren sat up with a "rub", was so startled that he was completely drowsy, and asked, "Really?" She was really puzzled, and frowned, "Why, weren't they okay before I left Beijing?" It's obviously us who quarreled, why did the scholar ...... with his wife?"
"Wei Shuying has his considerations, you and I don't need to interfere in this matter anymore, just leave it at that."
"Got it." Mei Xiaoren's tone was filled with deep regret.
The carriage drove into Shangjing, Mei Xiaoren got off the carriage outside the Shangjing Prefecture Office, waved goodbye to Chu Yu and entered the yamen.
Before Maozheng, there was no one in the yamen, and the officials who came early all gathered outside the lobby to chat in twos and threes.
She was out on business for a few days, and she didn't wear an official uniform today, and when she entered the yamen, she didn't attract the attention of everyone, and she happened to hear a few people chatting behind the door.
Someone asked, "Why are you listless today and didn't sleep last night?" ”
Another person replied: "When I saw him like this, he wanted to sleep with his daughter-in-law, but he was kicked out of bed by his daughter-in-law, and he was dissatisfied!" ”
Someone teased: "That's quite uncomfortable, isn't it?" If you don't go to the kiln to find a kiln sister to make do, it will be a big loss if it is suffocated. ”
Mei Xiaoren answered casually: "Who is going to find Sister Yao?" ”
As soon as the voice came out, the officials in the courtyard were all startled, and then they sorted out their clothes and hats, ran to the courtyard with their respective guys and stood up, and said in unison: "I've seen adults." ”
The head catcher at the head of the row smiled and said: "Boss, you are back from the old age, you just came back from running outside, why don't you stop, come to the yamen so early, don't be tired." ”
"Let's see what you're all talking about." Mei Xiaoren smiled on his lips, walked to the backyard, and beckoned, "Let's disperse, and then we will be busy with our own work." ”
Mei Xiaoren washed and changed into her official uniform in the yamen, and after sitting on the bookcase, she found that her desk was unusually clean, and there was no mountain of official documents as she imagined, only a few books that had just been delivered today.
She took the teacup and cleaved the foam, and smiled to herself, no wonder he was so angry at that time last night.
Less than a stick of incense after Mao Zheng, Emperor Tianhong suddenly summoned his ministers into the palace.
In the past, His Majesty would notify officials to enter the palace one day in advance, and it was the first time that he was summoned in such a hurry.
Mei Xiaoren didn't dare to delay and hurried to the palace.
When she entered the palace hall, the officials were more than halfway there, and before long, Chu Yu came, followed by the Wei scholars.
Mei Xiaoren bowed down with the hundred officials, but she liked to see him in court clothes, so she waited for Chu Yu to walk in front of her and quietly looked up at him.
Gu Chuyu was also looking at her.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and were caught by Wei Shuying's eyes.
Wei Shuying complained in a low voice: "Didn't you just quarrel? Do you want to do it! ”
"You're jealous."
After the hundred officials arrived, Emperor Tianhong came.
Mei Xiaoren found that in the past, His Majesty was always supported by palace maids or internal eunuchs when he came here, but today it was Jiang Rong who helped him sit on the dragon chair.
After His Majesty sat down, Jiang Rong was still standing beside his father, and he no longer looked like he used to be a deputy hanger and just want to have fun.
After the ministers finished saluting, Emperor Tianhong spoke: "I ordered King Yu to re-investigate the case of General Zhenguo's collaboration with the enemy, King Yu said that he had found out the facts, and I summoned Zhongqing here today to let King Yu return the case in front of Zhongqing. ”
After Emperor Tianhong finished speaking, he looked at Jiang Rong.
Jiang Yi understood, and shouted outside the hall: "Bring it up!" ”
The ministers looked out of the hall together, and after a while, several guards escorted a man in prison uniform into the main hall.
Mei Xiaoren also looked at the prisoner, and always felt that she had seen the man with a scruffy beard and who was not young.
Emperor Tianhong was curious, pointed to the person who came and asked, "Ei'er, who is he?" ”
"Back to my father, he is a native of the Xia Kingdom."
As soon as Jiang Rong said this, Mei Xiaoren suddenly remembered that she had indeed seen this person, in the suburbs of Yunxian County, in Chu Zifeng's Flowing Fire Gang!
This man is the elder sent by the Xia Kingdom to support the Flowing Fire Gang, half of Chu Zifeng's master.
This person was captured when Zhao Dutong led their troops to exterminate the Flowing Fire Gang, she thought that he had already subdued the law like other evil gangs, but she didn't expect that he was not only alive, but now he has also arrived in Shangjing and in front of Daning Jun.
Xia Guoren was escorted to the palace, and the guards shouted at him: "Kneel! ”
His heart fell to his knees reluctantly.
"Ei'er, does he have anything to do with General Zhenguo's case?"
"Father, it is not Daning's officials who framed General Zhenguo's collaboration with the enemy, but the people of Xia Guo, this is a trick of the Xia people's envoys, intending to use Daning's hand to get rid of the brave and warlike General Ye."
Tai Kangdi looked at Xia Guoren and asked, "Is that really the case?" ”
Xia Guoren drooped his head and did not speak.
"Father, this person was one of the bandits who wandered in the south of the Yangtze River, and was later captured by the border guards, and should have been executed, at that time, in order to save his life, he told the secret story of General Ye's collaboratorship with the enemy."
Jiang Rong also said, "However, the generals of the defending army did not believe his words, so they secretly reported the matter to Wei Guogong, who has been running around for several months, verifying the truth of his remarks in many ways, so he did not dare to bring the witness to his father until now." ”
Hearing this, Wei Shuying couldn't help but sigh, and whispered to the people in front: "It seems that the border guards are really wary of your Gu family, such a very important matter, they actually hid it from you and told Ji Heng." ”
