The man frowned and paced back and forth in the room.

"Steward Zhang, you also know the situation in the mansion. I went to Beijing this time and only brought a dowry of 3,000 taels. That's it, it's already hollowed out most of the family's foundation. Will the county lord dislike my dowry too thin? ”

Thinking of his current predicament, the man's pair of heroic sword eyebrows furrowed tightly.

Steward Zhang comforted him and said, "Don't worry, my lord, since the elders of the county lord have agreed to marry, I don't think I will embarrass you at the dowry."

"That's what I said......"

Despite the comfort of Steward Zhang, the man's dark eyebrows still couldn't hide his worry.

"If you marry me, you will already be very wronged by the county lord. If I can't let the county lord marry in a glorious way, I'm just afraid that the county lord will hate me in the future. ”

The man also knew that he was taking advantage of others now, but his aunt's proposal really moved him too much.

If he can marry the fairy in his dreams, the man swears that he will be good to her in his life.

Listening to the man and Steward Zhang talking about the short gossip of the parents, the red kite was in no mood to continue listening.

She turned out of this inconspicuous courtyard with a heavy heart, and at this moment she knew that a catastrophe was coming, so she didn't dare to delay any longer, and rushed to the palace with a deep foot and a shallow foot.

Inside the Taihe Palace.

When Wei Zhao heard that the red kite asked to see him, he raised his sword eyebrows that flew obliquely into his temples, he threw down half of the approved folds, and went to the side hall alone.

"Your Majesty, the slave is guilty!"

The red kite knelt on the cold floor tiles in the side hall, and when she saw Emperor Jianyuan recently, her white forehead knocked the floor tiles to the ground "bang".

Wei Zhao raised his eyebrows with a grim expression: "What's wrong?"

The red kite stopped kowtowing, her fair forehead was already bleeding, but she didn't dare to wipe it, and replied respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, the slave is dull, and I only found out today, the eldest princess of peace made a private promise to the county lord......"

Before the red kite finished speaking, she only heard a crisp sound of "pop" in her ears, a teacup fell on her lap, and the hot water poured her skirt.

The red kite trembled and lay on the ground.

"Rubbish!"

Wei Zhao reprimanded in a deep voice!

The more furious Wei Zhao became, the calmer the whole person became, and only the blade-like cold glow in his ink eyes revealed his truest emotions.

"Don't say it yet."

As one of the best secret guards in the Green Dragon Guard, Red Kite knows his majesty's methods better than anyone else. She held her breath and hurriedly told the details of the news she had found.

"Your Majesty, the person selected by the eldest princess is a person from Liaodong, named Li Mu, who is thirty out of twenty this year, and holds the military position of Zhengwupin in the Zhenyuan Army.

Li Mu was born in a poor family, his parents died, he lived dependent on his uncle and aunt, and his family assets were also very thin.

The media's protector is the county lord of Jinghua, who is her husband's nephew.

The slave maid sneaked into the Li Mansion today to inquire about the news, and happened to meet the subordinates of the eldest princess's mansion who secretly sent Geng posts to Li Mu. ”

After the red kite finished speaking, he knelt on the ground without saying a word.

I didn't hear the emperor's voice for a long time.

The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin dropping.

The red kite knelt on the ground, the sweat from her forehead dripping into her eyes, and her eyes were in a hot pain, but she didn't even dare to wipe it, and she didn't even dare to come out.

Just when the red kite's underwear was soaked with cold sweat, Wei Zhao pulled his lips and sneered.

"She's such a good aunt! I see that she is old and confused, and even my reverse scales dare to move. ”

Wei Zhao sneered: "Feng Hui! "Loud proclamation people come in.

"Your Majesty!" Feng Hui heard the sound and entered the hall.

Feng Hui is the old man who serves by Emperor Jianyuan's side, although Emperor Jianyuan looks like he is moody.

Feng Hui could clearly feel the suppressed anger in Emperor Jianyuan's heart through Emperor Jianyuan's eyes and demeanor.

Emperor Jianyuan rested one arm on the table, his index finger slightly bent, and tapped the imperial case rhythmically.

After a while, his majestic and handsome face lit up, and he said lightly: "Spread my will, the lord of Jinghua County has not been summoned to Beijing, tandem with the clan, plotting against him, and submit it to Zongzheng Temple for trial, which will be co-organized by Huang Anshi, the Zhengqing of Dali Temple." ”

Feng Hui's heart trembled, and he raised his eyelids and quickly glanced at the emperor.

I saw that Emperor Jianyuan's face was cold, and he didn't look different from usual, but the lines of his jaw muscles were tight, and it was obvious that the whole person was in a state of anger.

Feng Hui was secretly frightened.

Your Majesty has not been so angry in a long time.

I don't know what a rebellious mistake the county lord Jinghua has committed, and he actually made His Majesty move the murderous intent at this moment.

With such a serious punishment, Emperor Jianyuan didn't even want to find a decent excuse, when would even ordinary officials and dependents be summoned to Beijing, not to mention, the county lord of Jinghua was still a clan.

Feng Hui thought, Your Majesty is really a crime that you want to add, and there is no excuse for it.

It's just that Feng Hui has been with His Majesty for a long time, and his heart has become very cold, even if the county lord of Jinghua is really wronged, His Majesty says that she deserves to die, she deserves to die!

Huang Anshi, the Zhengqing of Dali Temple, is His Majesty's henchman, His Majesty appointed Huang Anshi to intervene, Huang Anshi was born in prison, and he didn't have to worry about not being able to judge what His Majesty wanted.

Poor Jinghua County Lord is delicate and expensive, and when he enters Zongzheng Temple, he has to shed his skin even if he doesn't die.

Feng Hui quietly retreated.

Wei Zhao looked at the red kite kneeling on the ground, and commanded in a cold voice: "Remember your punishment first, there must be no one around the county lord, don't arouse her suspicion, what to say and what not to say, you should know in your heart."

"Yes, the slave and maid have thanked Your Majesty for your grace."

Knowing that he had escaped, when the emperor was gone, the red kite would live for the rest of his life, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person collapsed on the floor tiles.

Wei Zhao returned to Hanyuan Palace, picked up the fold on the table, Jiangxi prefect Wu Youdao officials and businessmen colluded, corrupted the law, squeezed the people's fat and people's ointment, he was originally going to sentence Wu Youdao to travel three thousand miles, but at this moment, the imperial pen Zhu criticized and directly sentenced the decision.

After more than an hour, Wei Zhao was still angry, and the imperial pen in his hand was broken.

Li Mu, this name was chewed between his lips and teeth, and he wanted to immediately drag the person in front of him and break the corpse into thousands of pieces to vent the anger in his heart.

"Feng Ying!" Wei Zhao let out a low snort.

Emperor Jianyuan was furious, Feng Ying was suddenly named by name, his face suddenly turned cold, he suppressed the panic in his heart, and tried his best to make his face look normal.

"What does Your Majesty command?" Feng Ying bowed respectfully.

"You go and order a few people, I want to go out of the palace."

Wei Zhao dusted off the dust that didn't exist on his sleeves, and glanced at Feng Ying carelessly, sharp and cold.

Feng Ying's body trembled in fright, and said loudly: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Feng Ying didn't need to ask much to know where His Majesty was going, so he hurriedly went out of the palace to count the manpower.

After only half an hour of effort, the imperial horse supervisor brought the emperor's mount, a jade lion with an incomparable divine horse.

Wei Zhaofei got on the horse, raised the horsewhip, and the horse under his crotch went away.

Several guards hurriedly urged their crotch mounts, lest Emperor Jianyuan have an accident, and they chased after Emperor Jianyuan's figure.

Wei Zhao galloped all the way, and when he arrived at the Jingping Marquis Mansion, he neatly turned over and dismounted, and broke in directly without waiting for the next person to pass through.

The guards at the gate of the Hou Mansion were about to chase after them, and Feng Ying arrived later.

He untied the belt card from his waist and threw it out.

Seeing this, the guard guarding the door hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it, and when he saw the words engraved on the waist card, he suddenly made a "poof" and knelt on the ground.

Wei Zhao walked all the way unimpeded, striding straight in the direction of Wuyuan.

Wei Zhao walked into the courtyard and saw the girl sitting on the swing rack at a glance, and most of the anger in his heart suddenly dissipated.

The girl was wearing a homely honey-colored grape-patterned blouse, a crepe silver mouse skin shoulder, a Xiangfei-colored water ripple skirt, a pair of pearl embroidered shoes with lotus leaves on her slender and delicate feet, a pair of snail buns on her head, a string of pearl beads wrapped between the black green silk, and a row of jasmine hairpins of mutton fat jade inserted in her hair.

Under the early spring sun, the girl with simple clothes has green temples, her skin is like clotted fat, and a pair of curved emerald eyebrows are gently frowning, as if she is enveloped with a pool of sorrow; The starry eyes and long eyelashes that are as bright as autumn water droop slightly, as if they are carrying endless thoughts, like an orchid with wind and dew, which arouses infinite pity.

Wei Zhao stopped, his eyes locked on the little man swinging leisurely, and even his breathing was lightened, and he stared intently at the shadow, as if he wanted to engrave the person in his heart.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?"

The sight behind him is extremely hot, and it is like a man's back.

Xie Yanhe couldn't continue to pretend to be confused, she restrained her thoughts, slowly got off the swing frame, stopped a few steps away from Emperor Jianyuan, and curtsied.

Wei Zhao took a few steps forward and helped her: "Your body is just right, how can you go to the courtyard to blow the wind, these servants are too careless."

As he spoke, his sharp eyes swept over Xie Yan and the maidservants who followed him.

The few maids kneeling on the ground did not dare to defend themselves, so they could only hang their heads lower.

Xie Yanhe smiled lightly: "I always don't go out, and if I don't get sick, I have to hold back my illness."

She looked lazy, and there seemed to be a hint of discouragement in her soft tone.

It seems that Mianmian does not want to marry far away from the capital. Wei Zhao had a bottom in his heart, and a tightly held heart was put down.

Looking at Xie Yan and his listless appearance, Wei Zhao couldn't help but feel very distressed.

"It's cold outside, let's talk about it when we go inside."

Wei Zhao waved at Xie Yanhe and motioned for her to follow.

When he arrived in the inner room, Xie Yanhe poured a cup of tea for Wei Zhao with his own hands: "Why did Your Majesty come here at this time?"

Wei Zhao didn't speak, his eyes looked at Xie Yanhe without a trace, and seeing that there was no unwilling expression on her face, he simply pierced the layer of window paper: "Aunt is confused, I regard you as the pearl of my palm, you are so squeamish, the bitter cold land of Liaodong, where is the place where you can stay!"

Xie Yanhe's heartstrings trembled, and he made a confused look: "What is Your Majesty talking about?" Why can't I understand? ”

This girl dared to pretend to be confused in front of herself.

Wei Zhao's eyes deepened: "I have even found out where Li Mu lives, Mianmian, do you still want to hide it from me?!" ”
