Chapter 199: Retirement
"Father, son, ......" Wei Jin's heart felt cold, he opened his mouth, and found that he couldn't say anything to justify.
The evidence is ironclad! hateful Chen Ze, this cousin, not only can't help himself, but also drags himself back everywhere!
Wei Jin's mouth was bitter.
The eyes of those courtiers fell on him, and Wei Jin felt a strong disdain from them. Probably these people feel that they are not worthy of being the prince. The dignified prince will be deceived by his own wive-in-law and his minions!
"Father, the son has disappointed his father." Wei Jin didn't even dare to look at the emperor's eyes. He's afraid! I'm afraid that the disappointment in my father's eyes will be unbearable!
Wei Zhao sneered. The prince became more and more stupid, and chose to attack the chief eunuch beside him at the Pangu Festival. Even if he intended to expose the matter, the courtiers all opened their eyes and saw that they couldn't do it lightly.
Wei Zhao's thoughts, Xie Yanhe now also understood a little. She pursed her lips lightly and took the initiative to give Wei Zhao a step.
Xie Yanhe said softly: "Your Majesty, the courtiers have a saying, I don't know whether to say it or not. ”
"You say." Wei Zhao's index finger rubbed the dragon pattern wrench on his thumb, and the meaning of his eyes was unclear.
Xie Yanhe's voice was tactful, and he said eloquently: "Your Majesty, the courtiers and housekeepers have been in charge for a few years. This slave has always deceived his superiors and not concealed them. If the master is not careful, he will be fooled by some cheating and slippery slaves. The Hou Mansion is still like this, not to mention the Imperial Palace. ”
Xie Nahe said, her cherry lips curled, a bright face opened a shallow smile, her eyelashes blinked lightly, and she said with a little playfulness: "Your Majesty, it is not the courtiers who intercede for His Royal Highness the Prince." It's just a good day, so why should Your Majesty make everyone's hearts uneasy. ”
"Are you dissatisfied with me?" Wei Zhao looked at the woman beside him, his dark eyes were dim.
Xie Yanhe's peach blossom eyes widened blankly, as if she didn't understand why Wei Zhao would say such a thing, she said coquettishly: "How can I be dissatisfied with Your Majesty?!" Your Majesty's heart ...... me"
Xie Yanhe bit his rosy cherry lips, glanced at the seat of the minister of the court, and quickly withdrew it. Her eyes were shy and timid, looking at the emperor beside her, a pair of beautiful eyes ready to speak.
It seemed that the blazing sun pierced through the dark clouds in the sky, and the haze in Wei Zhao's heart was swept away.
Wei Zhao picked up the wine bottle on the table and drank a sip of the jade liquid golden pill in the cup, the fine wine that he used to think was acceptable has now become a throat burn, Wei Zhao only took a sip, and felt that he was already slightly drunk.
"Prince, today's events are a lesson for you. I hope you don't do it again in the future. ”
Although his father bypassed him, it was all because of Xie Yanhe's intercession, and his father changed his mind. Wei Jin felt even more uncomfortable in his heart, and even complained about Xie Yanhe's many things.
The prince admitted his mistake with a good attitude, and Wei Zhao only bowed slightly. He glanced at Feng Hui and ordered: "Cheng Ji will be dismissed from his post and investigated, and he will be beheaded after the autumn." The position of supervisor of the Wine and Vinegar Bureau allowed Li Youfu to fill the vacancy. ”
"Slave, thank you, Your Majesty." Feng will be grateful. The supervisor of the Wine and Vinegar Bureau changed his apprentice to do it, and Feng Hui was still dissatisfied.
From an angle where the emperor's line of sight could not be seen, Feng Hui handed over a grateful look towards the county lord of Yonghe.
If there is no genius pen of the county lord of Yonghe, if he wants to move Cheng Ji, who has the prince behind his back, he will inevitably break his muscles and bones.
The county lord of Yonghe gave him a big favor!
The sound of silk and bamboo in the field sounded again, and everyone pushed the cups and changed the lamps, as if the extremely embarrassing scene had never happened.
Xie Yanhe personally poured a glass of wine for Wei Zhao, and his peach blossom eyes were full of guilt. Her sweet voice was even more full of self-reproach: "Your Majesty, it's all my fault, if it weren't for my mouth, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would not be blamed." ”
Xie Yanhe's approach was very white lotus, and Princess Fuqing hooked her lips playfully, looking at ease and leisure, as if she was enjoying a good show. The crown princess Chen Rong was diametrically opposed to Princess Fuqing's expression, her eyes were full of resentment, and she couldn't wait to eat Xie Yanhe's flesh raw.
What an idiot! On such an occasion, I can't even cover it up.
The eldest princess of peace half-closed her eyes, thinking in her heart that she had underestimated this granddaughter in the past.
Today's Yan He's move not only sold Feng Hui's favor and made the prince cut off his arm, but also made the prince leave an image of nepotism, lax governance, and no distinction between loyalty and treachery in front of the courtiers. Three birds with one stone, what a cleverness!
The eldest princess of peace picked up the wine bottle on the table and took a sip of the black plum drink in the cup. The drink is sweet and sour, clearing heat and relieving the heat, but the eldest princess of peace has an indescribable taste in her heart.
Since the death of her eldest son, the spirit of the eldest princess of Heian has not been good.
The Xie family's reputation plummeted.
In the past, the Hou Mansion was crowded with cars and horses, but now it is full of doors. The youngest son was also implicated because of the eldest son.
In the previous palace banquet, their husband and wife could still be assigned to a relatively high position. Now, although the youngest son still has the false name of an uncle, he has to squeeze together with the officials of the fourth and fifth grades, and the brothers have become enemies because of this. The youngest son wished that he had never had such a brother!
The eldest princess of peace thought very bitterly: once she goes, I am afraid that the eldest son's family will even cut off the incense offered in the future!
The details that the eldest princess of peace can notice naturally can't escape Wei Zhao's eyes. Wei Zhao snorted lightly in his heart, looking at Xie Yanhe's ink eyes, but they were as deep and gentle as a lake.
He said softly, "What do you have to do with it! Such silverfish must not be tolerated. ”
After Wei Zhao finished speaking, he glanced at Feng Hui, his eyes were calm, and his indifferent tone was full of warning: "I will write down your board first this time." If you dare to know about it in the future......"
Wei Zhao snorted coldly, everything was silent.
Feng Hui's face turned pale, and he knelt down to plead guilty: "Your Majesty is magnanimous, and the slave thanks Your Majesty for not punishing you." ”
Xie Yanhe looked at Wei Zhaosen's cold face and gently shook Wei Zhao's sleeve.
"Your Majesty, the winner has been decided!"
When Wei Zhao heard this, he followed Xie Yanhe's gaze and saw that the team in blue had successfully obtained the hydrangea.
This hydrangea was hung on the shelf on the other side of the Yudai River, and many guards in the lake fell into the water, which shows what a fierce battle several teams on the Fangcai River experienced!
It's just that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince made too much noise, and the officials and ladies attending the banquet were attracted by the changes at the banquet and forgot about the dragon boat race for a while. When we look at it again, the five teams have already decided the winners.
"Feng Hui, reward!" Wei Zhao's ink eyes were dyed with a hint of pleasure, obviously very satisfied with Jin Wuwei's bravery.
Every year, the capital of the dragon boat race is two hundred taels of silver, and a six-grade shadow seal. Silver is a trivial matter, and the shadow seal of these six grades is the reason why these guards compete so fiercely.
Xie Yanhe's beautiful eyes sparkled, and he pointed to the person who received the award and said, "Your Majesty, this person is a little familiar, is it the son of Lord Jiang?" ”
Wei Zhao looked at the man who was walking towards this side, and saw that the man was wearing a blue tight-fitting uniform, with a blue ribbon tied around his arm, a burly figure, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he was seven points similar to Jiang Liuqu.
Wei Zhao nodded, turned his head sideways and whispered to Xie Yanhe: "Mianmian has good eyesight, this person is Jiang Liuqu's eldest son, and he is a promising." ”
Xie Yanhe's peach blossom eyes flashed. can get a word of praise from the emperor, Jiang Liuqu will not have to worry about his son's future in the future.
Xie Yan and Mei's eyes flickered, and they were about to ask Wei Zhao a few more words, when the corner of their eyes swept over the sleepy eldest princess of Ping'an, and their eyebrows frowned.
"Grandmother, grandmother......" There seemed to be a delicate whisper in his ears. The eldest princess of peace came back to her senses in an instant, her cloudy gaze followed the source of the sound, and she unexpectedly collided with her granddaughter.
Xie Yanhe's eyes seemed to contain a lot of worry, like a good granddaughter who was filial. The eldest princess of peace had already seen through the fangs hidden under this layer of skin, she didn't dare to take it lightly, and said softly: "Yan He, what's wrong?" ”
Xie Yanhe bit her lip, the worry in her expression did not seem to be fake, and she said softly: "Grandmother's spirit is a little weak, it is better to go to the main hall to rest for a while." ”
The eldest princess of peace hooked her lips, she was very old during this time, her smile not only looked kind, but the high cheekbones on her face highlighted the indifference and meanness in her smile.
The eldest princess of Ping'an refused Xie Yanhe's care, and her tone was light: "Don't worry about this palace, this palace can still hold on." ”
The eldest princess of Ping An has been proud all her life, and this answer has long been expected by Xie Yanhe. Hengzhu has already done her duty as a junior, since her grandmother is unwilling, why should she force it.
The smile on Xie Yanhe's face was flawless, and she said softly: "If grandmother can't hold on, you must tell me." Your Majesty respects you, and your body is the most important thing. ”
After Xie Yanhe finished speaking, he smiled sweetly at Wei Zhao, and his tone was delicate: "Your Majesty, am I right?" ”
Wei Zhao took advantage of the cover of the sleeves of his robe, and his fingers on the table gently pinched Xie Yanhe's palm.
Xie Yanhe's heart was slightly frightened, and he was about to pull out his arm, but Wei Zhao grabbed Rouyi.
Wei Zhao lifted his lips quietly, and said softly to the eldest princess of Ping'an, "What Mianmian said is true." If my aunt is unwell, she doesn't have to hold on. ”
Wei Zhao's "aunt" reached the ears of the eldest princess of Ping'an, which made the eldest princess feel very ridiculous.
The man in front of him is the supreme emperor in the world. is both her nephew and her future grandson-in-law. If the two have a child in the future, should they call her aunt and grandmother, or great-grandmother?
The eldest princess of peace lowered her eyes slightly, and said in a light tone: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
Wei Zhao didn't take the coldness of the eldest princess of peace to heart. It is said that the eldest princess of Ping An is still his aunt, just for the sake of her cousin and sleeping, Wei Zhao will also respect the eldest princess of Ping'an.
"It's all my own family, and my aunt doesn't have to be polite." Wei Zhao raised his glass towards the eldest princess of Ping'an. "I salute my aunt for a cup."
Even if the eldest princess of Ping An was dissatisfied with the emperor in her heart, she would not dare to lose the emperor's face in public. She picked up the wine bottle on the table and drank the black plum in the cup.
At this moment, there was an "oops" in my ears.
Xie Yan and the wine jug on the table were accidentally knocked over by the palace maid, and all the wine in the pot was poured into her sleeves, and at the moment it was dripping "tick, tick".
Seeing that she was in trouble, the palace maid knelt on the ground with a "plop" and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Damn it! Slaves and maids should be damned! The county lord of Yonghe spares his life! Because she was too frightened, the palace maid gritted her teeth and gurgled and pleaded incoherently to Xie Yanhe.
"Get up, you're also unintentional." Xie Yanhe's delicate and sweet voice was like a spring breeze, instantly resolving the fear in the palace maid's heart.
Seeing that she had no intention of pursuing it, the palace maid kowtowed to Xie Yanhe heavily and retreated with great gratitude.
Xie Yanhe got up, smiled and said, "Your Majesty, allow me to retire and change into a dress." ”
Wei Zhao bowed his head and looked at Feng Ying.
Feng Ying instantly understood what the emperor meant, and hurriedly handed over the affairs at hand to his apprentice, trotting to follow the county lord of Yonghe, and waiting behind her.
