Chapter 110: Let go of the master
Since King Yi said that he would go to Fengyi Palace for dinner at noon, Tu En ordered him to go down early and handed over the letter to Fengyi Palace.
Seeing that it was time for dinner, Thun approached King Yi and said, "Your Majesty, it's time for dinner, and the king said that he would go to Fengyi Palace for dinner at noon today." ”
"Hmm." King Yi took the letter and stood up, and Thun's slender voice shouted: "Drive the Fengyi Palace." ”
When King Yi and his entourage arrived at Fengyi Palace, Empress Wei was waiting outside early, and when she saw King Yi coming, she hurriedly greeted him and bowed, "The king is safe." ”
King Yi took Empress Wei's hand and said with a smile: "Ning'er doesn't have to be polite. ”
The ceremony has already been done, and the queen of the guard got up and said with a smile: "The ceremony cannot be abolished." ”
The two went in hand in hand, and the palace maids and eunuchs followed in a large group, stopping outside the hall, and only a few snow belly followed up to serve.
The dishes were ready, and as soon as Queen Yi Wang Wei sat down, the eunuch sneaked in, put the dishes on the table one by one, lifted the lid and left.
Snow belly stands next to him, serving the two of them.
"By the way, Ning'er, Jiaojiao has a letter." King Yi Road.
"Jiaojiao has sent a letter, what did she say?" Empress Wei looked at King Yi, "But you're not used to living outside?" ”
"It's not." King Yi took a bite of cold lotus root, took out a letter from his chest, and said, "This letter is for you." ”
Snow belly took it and handed it to the queen guard.
There are four words written on it, "The Queen Mother's Initiation", the handwriting is chic, and there is a hint of sharpness, not like a girl's writing.
Empress Wei was a little unsure if this was a letter written by Ning Yu, after all, most of the women's characters she had seen were delicate and soft.
"Why don't you look at it?" King Yi asked, "But is it cowardice?" If you dare not look at it, I will take it open for you. ”
“…… No need, the concubines will see for themselves. Empress Wei smiled and opened the envelope, which was a thin piece of paper.
opened the letter, the first sentence was "ask the queen mother to be safe", and the last few sentences were the same as King Yi's letter, saying that she had been away for a long time, and she missed the queen of the guard, and then talked about her recent situation, and finally wrote: "Everything is fine with my daughter, please don't remember the queen mother." ”
The corners of Wei Hou's lips hooked slightly, and he smiled: "Jiaojiao is really a good child." ”
King Yi nodded, "Jiaojiao is indeed well-behaved." "None of his children can compare with Jiaojiao, they can't compare with them when they were young, and they can't compare with them when they grow up.
Jiaojiao is not only good-looking, but also sensible.
"What is written in the letter?" King Yi asked, glancing at the letter from time to time.
King Yi's careful thinking, who can't see through it?
Empress Wei smiled and said: "I didn't say anything, just a simple greeting, the king might as well take a look for himself." ”
Empress Wei raised her hand, and when Xue Xuan saw this, she hurriedly took the letter and handed it to King Yi.
When King Yi saw the letter handed over, he hurriedly put down his chopsticks and took the letter and looked at it.
The front of the letter is similar to the one given to him, but the back says her daily life, because the daily life is cumbersome, the whole letter has grown a lot, Yiwang is a little sour, and it is not good to show it, after reading it, he sighed lightly, and began to eat.
Empress Wei couldn't hold back a laugh.
King Yi looked up at her, "What are you laughing at?" ”
The ignorant Empress Wei couldn't help but laugh again.
King Yi frowned and asked, "What are you laughing at?" ”
"I didn't ...... It's nothing. Empress Wei finally stopped laughing.
King Yi looked at her and didn't speak, obviously waiting for her to come up with a reasonable explanation.
"Concubine...... The concubine ...... "Empress Wei looked at King Yi with big eyes, she couldn't say that she was laughing at him, it was too rebellious."
Looking at the carved dishes placed in front of her, Empress Wei had an idea, pointed to the dishes and said, "Concubine...... I'm laughing at this dish. ”
"What's so funny about this dish?" King Yi looked skeptical, not very convinced.
"This dish...... It is obviously a dish, but it is carved into a flower, and it is so beautiful and realistic. Empress Wei smiled: "The concubine thinks, if this dish is not placed on the table, but in the imperial garden, the concubine will definitely recognize it as a real flower, thinking of this, the concubine can't help laughing." ”
Empress Wei said, laughing again, as if she was really amused by the flowers.
The queen is well maintained, and she looks like a young woman in her twenties on weekdays, and this smile is even more charming.
King Yi's heart was hot, he looked at the flower carefully, and said with a smile: "It's quite similar." ”
After finishing the meal, Empress Wei sent King Yi out, King Yi walked to the sedan chair, turned back and whispered in Empress Wei's ear: "Come over tonight, don't you go to bed early." ”
Empress Wei blushed and smiled.
……
……
After the illusion was posted, he told Ning Yu the details.
The accounts that the soldiers got were from last year to this year, and they were all black accounts. Just one year's account, it must add up to 50,000 taels of silver, not to mention that he has been the prefect of Yicheng for five years.
The local wealthy family has a lot to do with Xu Zhili, as well as the filial piety of lower-level officials, and even some landlords in small counties.
All sorts of things, too many to count.
Ning Yu's eyebrows and eyes were cold, and he took Phantom Color to Ning Ze's side and handed over the account book to Ning Ze.
Ning Ze received the account book and looked at it, and then listened to Ning Yu's words, and the addition of Phantom Color, his handsome eyebrows frowned tightly, "This Xu Zhili is really greedy!" ”
The prince was about to hold Xu Zhili accountable, and Ning Yu secretly followed over to watch the excitement.
Just finished eating, Xu Zhili was resting in his aunt's room, when suddenly several soldiers rushed in, Xu Zhili looked confused, and before he could react, he was pulled up by the soldiers and escorted away.
The aunt didn't know who the soldier was, so she pulled the soldier and shouted, "What are you doing, let go of the master!" ”
Xu Zhili had already reacted, and hurriedly scolded his aunt, "You go back, don't come out if you don't know anything!" ”
Xu Zhili's roar frightened the aunt to let go immediately, and looked at Xu Zhili at a loss, the soldiers did not react, they have seen too many shrews, and their task now is to take Xu Zhili to the court.
"But does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have any orders?" Xu Zhili asked with a shy smile.
The soldier's expression was indifferent, and he only escorted Xu Zhili to hurry.
During this time, because Ning Ze and the others lived in the prefect's back office, Xu Zhili didn't dare to go to the dark pavilion, and naturally he didn't know that his account book was lost.
Xu Zhili is very careful, the account book will be burned after checking the accounts every year, but this year because he was busy with the prince's affairs, he didn't care about this.
The soldiers didn't speak, and Xu Zhili didn't have a way to inquire even if he wanted to, and finally shut up.
Unexpectedly, he was escorted to the court.
Xu Zhili's heart suddenly struck, maybe they had discovered his treasure.
Impossible, impossible, his treasure is so hidden, who can find it? The clasp is also very hidden, and the people who participated in the construction of the dark pavilion and the drawing in the early years were secretly executed by him, who can know his secret.
But what else could it be?
He was also diligent during this time, and he didn't socialize with those friends, and he was either in the government office or in the back office every day.
