Chapter 235: Sleepless at Night
As a mature politician, of course, Zhang Gui would not fall out with the emperor who came to greet him in front of a group of civil and military ministers; And Qi Yu specially arranged such a big scene, of course, he also tried his best to show his respect for the teacher and his trust in the cabinet.
Huang Yi'an knows that his worries are actually redundant, but it is difficult for a heart to settle down.
In his previous life, it was not until Zhang Gui's death that Qi Yu dared to liquidate him, and even in order to vent his old grudge for many years, he almost let Zhang Gui die; Now that Zhang Gui is still firmly in control of the court, there are countless followers of the Shoufu faction up and down, inside and out, and it is difficult for Qi Yu to regain power from Zhang Gui in advance.
If Qi Yu is defeated, not to mention that she will fall with her, even the world will have to fall into turmoil......
Because of the inexplicable worry, Huang Yi'an didn't use much for dinner, so he sat under the window, holding a book, and frowned quietly.
Seeing this, Ah Mei retreated under the curtain and waited for the dispatch, and instructed the others not to come forward to disturb him, so as not to make Huang Yi'an more upset.
……
Qi Yu didn't return with a cold air until the early morning of the second day.
Huang Yi'an had already washed up and rested.
Qi Yu quietly instructed the palace people not to disturb her, and went to the clean room to freshen up and bathe, changed into a soft and clean middle coat, and put on a cotton robe to warm up her body, dispel the cold brought back from outside, and then gently lifted the curtain and entered the tent.
By the hazy candlelight, Qi Yu saw Huang Yi'an's brows frowning slightly, turning over from time to time, obviously unable to sleep very unsteadily.
Qi Yu thought about it and gently pushed Huang Yi'an with his hand.
As soon as his hand moved, Huang Yi'an woke up immediately.
"Your Majesty!" Huang Yi'an rubbed his eyes and whispered.
The voice is clear, and there is no confusion when you wake up from a deep sleep, which shows that Fang Cai really didn't sleep well.
"Well, I'm back." Qi Yu also replied in a low voice, "I just saw that you were not sleeping well, and I was afraid that you would have a nightmare in your dream, so I woke you up." ”
Huang Yi'an nodded, glanced outside the tent, and asked quietly, "What time is it?" How long has it been since His Majesty returned? ”
The tip of the nose has the fragrance of just bathing faintly, which is Qi Yu's usual spice.
"It's almost ugly." Qi Yu replied with a low chuckle, "It's been half an hour since I came back, and I saw that you had fallen asleep, so I went to freshen up and take a bath first." ”
Does it take half an hour to freshen up and bathe?
I'm afraid I'm soaking in the tub again and thinking about things.
It seems that it is not so pleasant to go to the Shili Changting on the outskirts of Beijing today to welcome Zhang Gui back to Beijing.
"Why is it so late?" Huang Yi'an thought for a while and asked quietly, "Is something wrong?" Delayed? ”
Since Qi Yu is willing to talk to her about court affairs, it is not considered a political interference if she asks like this, and she doesn't have to worry about being punished for being questioned.
Sure enough, Qi Yu didn't feel that there was anything wrong with Huang Yi'an's question, shook his head calmly, and said with a smile: "It's okay." I had a good conversation with Motosuke, and we had a good meal, so I came back a little late. ”
In this way, it is not considered to deceive Huang Yi'an, at least on the surface. As for how it is in private, even if he doesn't say it, Huang Yian can guess it.
Huang Yi'an was surprised when he heard this: "Yuanfu has always paid the most attention to etiquette rules, how could he indulge His Majesty to feast and drink and have fun, and he didn't return until the early hours of the morning?" ”
This is also one of the reasons why she waited for Qi Yu for a long time and was very worried.
With Zhang Gui's character of attaching importance to etiquette, how could he condone Qi Yu to feast, drink and have fun outside until the palace gate was locked?
Qi Yu pulled the corners of his mouth when he heard this, a sarcastic look appeared in his eyes, and he said slowly: "The monarch and the minister are in harmony, and the guests and hosts are happy, this is also the etiquette rule!" Since Motosuke attaches great importance to etiquette, why don't you know this. ”
He wanted to take advantage of this personal welcome and banquet to reassure Zhang Gui, and Zhang Gui wanted to take this opportunity to show the prestige of his ministers.
When Huang Yi'an saw it, he sighed and didn't speak.
She can ask appropriately, but she can't really meddle in political affairs, otherwise, with Qi Yu's personality, I'm afraid that she will soon be suspicious and wary.
"Rest early." After a while, Qi Yu sighed and said, "Tomorrow's big court meeting, I'm afraid that it won't be very calm, so I have to cultivate enough spirit to have the strength to deal with them." ”
Huang Yi'an nodded, obediently lay in Qi Yu's arms, was silent for a moment, and said in a low but firm voice: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much, you are the Ninety-Five Supreme, this world, after all, will be in charge of you personally!" ”
In response to her, Qi Yu hugged her tightly.
Maybe Huang Yi'an's words were just encouraging and comforting him, but when he thought of someone around him who believed in him and worshiped him wholeheartedly, Qi Yu couldn't help but be excited, and felt full of strength!
What's more, this person is none other than his wife who will be with him for life - Huang Yi'an!
That's right, he is the Ninety-Five Supreme, and Zhang Gui has passed the year of the Mandate of Heaven, and his life has just begun, and the world will truly belong to him after all!
……
Zhang Fu and Zhang Gui also stayed awake late at night.
Zhang Wei and other officials of the same faction, who had already received a message from Zhang Gui, as well as several staff members of Zhang Guixinzhong, were all sitting in the study at this time, waiting for Zhang Gui, who was at the top, to give a speech.
Zhang Gui was not polite, his expression was solemn, and he directly pointed at Zhang Wei to ask the guilt: "When the official left Beijing, he entrusted the cabinet to you, and all the contacts in the DPRK and China were at your disposal, why can't you even protect Gonggong Feng?" ”
Zhang Wei immediately stood up and bowed deeply, and sincerely pleaded: "The student has the trust of the first assistant, and please ask the adult to surrender!" ”
Zhang Gui heard the word "student", and his stern expression softened slightly.
After all, Zhang Wei is the successor he personally selected, and he has carefully taught and cultivated over the years, just so that in the future, after a hundred years, Zhang Wei can inherit his mantle and legacy, so that his decree can be implemented in Daqi for a long time, in order to enrich the country and strengthen the army, the country and the people, and the country will be long.
Although Zhang Wei is not doing things well, but after so many years of hard work, Zhang Gui is always a little more tolerant of him than others.
But that's about it.
For Zhang Gui, nothing is bigger than his lofty ambition - to implement the new policy, enrich the country and strengthen the army, lead Daqi to the prosperous era, leave a name in history, and sing forever!
For this lofty ambition, let alone the successor of the pro-family, that is, his own son has done something wrong and hindered the realization of the grand ambition, he has to be scolded and punished!
Besides, Zhang Wei's failure this time was very strange, if it weren't for the fact that the person sent to deliver the letter to him didn't meet him in time because of himself, and it was delayed for nearly a day, he couldn't help but suspect that Feng Yongting was questioned and expelled, and there was a shadow of Zhang Wei in secret.
"Since you admit the punishment, then tell me how the official should punish you to offset your sins?" Jang Gyu asked coldly.
