In fact, the situation in the court has completely fallen into a stalemate.

Either way, it's not good for Emperor Qitai.

If Emperor Qitai investigated and punished the people involved in this matter, then many people would think that Emperor Qitai was partial to the Confucian family, or maybe they would think that a son of heaven was afraid of his courtiers.

But if Emperor Qitai turns a big thing into a small thing, then with the character of the Kong family, he will definitely resign.

If the Kong family leaves, Dongfan will definitely take the opportunity to win over the Kong family, and the border is once again in turmoil.

The most important thing is that Yingzhou is extremely important, Yingzhou leads to Huizhou, and once Huizhou is taken, then the Jingwei Canal will become a sharp blade to break through Yanjing.

This is also why, as the right minister, Liu Lian has won over the Kong family several times.

Emperor Qitai met Song Linyuan at night, and he just asked this question.

Gu Yaolian didn't know how Song Linyuan would answer, but he could see that Emperor Qitai was also a smart person, and he knew that he had to find the bottom of the stairs from the Kong family.

Song Linyuan didn't speak, he walked a few steps ahead alone, he turned around and saw that Gu Yaolian didn't follow, and said, "You go with me." ”

The mansion of the Kong family is very large, and most of the subordinates raised in the Kong family are brought from Yingzhou.

Although they are not people with many tongues, they always have to take care of something......

As a result, before she had time to think about it, she saw Song Linyuan approaching and wringed out the sleeping hazy eleven from her cuffs.

He looked up, revealing his knife-like jaw, "Huh? ”

Gu Yaolian subconsciously raised his hand and caught the eleven that Song Linyuan had dropped.

Her ignorant appearance was very similar to the sleeping dazed Eleven, which made Song Linyuan couldn't help laughing, "Can you go with me now?" ”

Gu Yaolian: "......"

Song Linyuan coaxed her like a sister, but she was a human being in two lives, and she was not much older than this young man combined.

However, Eleven is really cute.

It quickly came to its senses, rubbing Gu Yaolian's palm frantically with its little head, as if it wanted to remember Gu Yaolian's breath forever.

Gu Yaolian had no resistance to small animals, she looked at the smart little things, and finally led the little maid to follow Song Linyuan.

It was not the first time Xiang Ming had seen Song Linyuan, so she was also used to her own young lady talking to Song Linyuan, after all, Aunt Song had helped Wang Ruolan a lot over the years.

On the contrary, it was fragrant, staring at Song Linyuan a little nervously.

Xiang Yu has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, so he can naturally see the thick cocoon on the tiger's mouth on Song Linyuan's hand.

She was worried that Gu Yaolian would suffer.

"You're waiting for me here." After Gu Yaopian saw that Song Linyuan had found a remote pavilion to sit down, he asked Xiangwei and Xiangfu to wait on the side.

Xiang Yu hurriedly said, "Miss, the slave and maid will accompany you, the slave and the maid will never mention the conversation between you and the son to outsiders." ”

"Slaves and maids can swear."

"Poof-" Gu Yaolian said, "I naturally believe that you won't say it, but if you're here, my cousin won't say a lot of things." ”

Gu Yaolian lowered his voice, and deliberately pressed Eleven's ear, "My cousin is shy. ”

Song Linyuan: "......"

Xiangfu: "......"

However, Gu Yaolian said so, and it was not easy for Xiangfu to continue to follow, so he could only wait not far from the pavilion.

Eleventh poles are human, after Gu Yaolian said this, it barked happily at Gu Yaopian a few times, looking as flattering as it wants.

Even though Gu Yaopian lowered his voice, Song Linyuan still heard it clearly.

His ears are more sensitive than ordinary people.

"Cousin." Gu Yaolian seemed to know what he was thinking, blinked and smiled at him, "You are an adult, you should not care about villains." ”

Song Linyuan was helpless, "What do I have to be shy about?" I'm looking for you, of course. ”

"I know." Gu Yaolian sat down on the spot, and stroked Eleven's soft and warm little belly with his right hand, "Cousin is thinking about how to calm down this matter so that both sides will not lose." ”

When she said this, she raised her head and looked at Song Linyuan, "But why do you want to calm down?" ”

"Whether it is the Ji family or the Feng family, since they dare to do such a thing, they must bear the corresponding responsibility. Cousin doesn't want to say that the dead are just a few ordinary women, so there is no need to toss like this. ”

"Although Miss Xiao and I are dangerous, nothing has happened, and we shouldn't embarrass Your Majesty."

"However, we didn't have an accident not because we were dead, but because I was prepared. And Miss Xiao is because she was lucky to meet Sister Kong Zhao. ”

Gu Yaolian's appearance was gentle, but his words were very sharp, "Because it's ordinary, should you be damned?" ”

In the eyes of the aristocracy, people are born with high and low.

The life of a lowly man is like an ant.

Although Gu Yaolian and Xiao Ting almost had an accident this time, there was no accident after all, and even Pei Lan's whereabouts were found, in fact, it was completely possible to turn a big incident into a small one.

Those who died on the other side of the Xiangsheng Lake in Nanshan were just the children of a few ordinary merchants......

These people are all ants.

In the eyes of the nobles and officials, in fact, this matter can be completely settled by paying some money to these women's families.

As for Kong Zhao -

Kong Zhao will have an accident, and it is completely Kong Zhao's own fault.

Kong Zhao likes Xiao Guqing, so he will save Xiao Ting. But the funny thing is that the Xiao family doesn't care about this disfigured concubine at all. Now that Xiao Ting is living in the Kong family, the Xiao family has not sent anyone at all, and they don't care about the life or death of this concubine at all.

The Xiao family, who has always been benevolent and righteous, would be so ruthless, and they also felt that Kong Zhao was not doing it right.

In private, many people are speculating that if Xiao Ting returns to the Xiao family, the Xiao family will also let Xiao Ting commit suicide.

In this way, the reputation of the Xiao family can be rounded.

But no matter what, many of the habits left by the first emperor are engraved in the hearts of these people, making them cruel and unkind.

"Why do you think that?" Song Linyuan's slender eyebrows furrowed, and he looked at Gu Yaolian with some doubts, "Why do you think that I think ordinary women deserve to die?" ”

"Or, why do you think that I won't be on the side of the Kong family and you?"

Gu Yao looked at Song Linyuan in astonishment, his eyes full of doubts.

Based on her understanding of Song Linyuan in her previous life, the current Song Linyuan should be trying to persuade the Kong family not to embarrass Emperor Qitai and take the initiative to suppress this matter.

Because only in this way can Song Linyuan use the fastest way to go to the eyes of Emperor Qitai and become a person with power in his hands.

A person who wants power will not care about the life and death of ants.

"You little girl, I'll wronged you." Song Linyuan smiled bitterly, Jun Xiu's face was full of helplessness, "How do you think the matter of Lingming Temple and the Temple of Sending Children to Niangniang was spread out?" ”

Gu Yaolian stood up, and his movements paused as he touched Eleven.

Her voice trembled, "You did it?" ”
