Song Wenyu brought up the old matter again and impeached the prince for the corruption of the Huainan eunuchs. On the day the fold was handed over, all the ministers of the court held their breath and silenced, and if anyone made a sound other than the slightest breath, it seemed that they had done something terrible wrong.

The situation is surging in the DPRK and China, but it is still calm outside the government and the opposition. Ah Jin sat in the courtyard and kept staring at the gate of the east wing, but the slightest movement at the gate of the courtyard could attract her attention.

Finally, when it was almost evening, Song Wenyu's figure finally appeared at the gate of the east wing.

"Wen Yu", Ah Jin stood up and watched Song Wenyu drag his tired body into the courtyard. The setting sun stretched his figure long and cast it on the ground.

The blood-colored sunlight shone all around him, and when he looked up at Ah Jin, the pair of amber pupils were also dyed red.

"I'm back", Song Wenyu smiled at Ah Jin.

This smile made Ah Jin's eyes red. She rushed into his arms, hugged him tightly and said, "I thought something was wrong with you." ”

"Fortunately, nothing happened", Song Wenyu replied calmly. But Ah Jin knew that these few numbers might have hidden a lot of ups and downs, "You waited for me here for a day?" ”

"It's not a day, I feel a little strange when I see that you didn't come back after eating at noon. On weekdays, if there is something in the government and the opposition that leaves you in the palace, you will definitely send Huairen back to deliver a message. But today, I don't see your people, and I don't see Huairen's message. I knew something must have happened", and as he said that, Ah Jin looked at him, and seeing that he didn't mean to say anything, he asked again, "Have you eaten?" I'm afraid you haven't eaten, and your lunch is still simmering in the pot. ”

Song Wenyu didn't say anything, and Ren Ajin dragged him into the room while chattering. The two sat opposite each other, and Ah Jin suddenly fell silent. She looked at Song Wenyu's eyes carefully, and her serious appearance made Song Wenyu couldn't help but smile, "What's wrong?" Why are you looking at me like that? ”

"You tell me the truth, what did you do in the court today?"

Song Wenyu lowered his eyes and looked at the hands he put on his lap, "I handed over a copy of the fold and impeached the prince." ”

"Sure enough......" Ah Jin sighed, and said nothing more.

"When did you guess?" Song Wenyu heard Ah Jin say this, and raised his head to look at her.

"I just guessed it. Thinking about it, this is the only thing that can make you stay in the inner court for so long...... Was it the saint who rebuked you? ”

Song Wenyu shook his head, "Not really." After the fold was handed over, the sage Long Yan was furious, but he did not reprimand me, but later left me in the imperial study and interrogated me a few words. ”

Ah Jin glanced at him, and then his eyes unconsciously drifted to the already dark sky outside the window, "Is it just a few questions?" ”

Song Wenyu smiled slightly, and was teased by Ah Jin's playful appearance, "Well, it's just a few words." Then...... It's a long silence. ”

"You saints have always been so interesting," Ah Jin commented, dragging his chin with one hand. After all, he was talking about the saint, and Song Wenyu was not easy to talk to, so he had to be silent, "I guess, he wants to know if you mean by handing over this excerpt, or if King Run's meaning." ”

"Yes."

"Didn't that knowingly ask?" Ah Jin pursed his lips, not understanding what Xiao Wusheng was going to do.

Song Wenyu thought about it and tried to figure out the sage's thoughts, "Probably." He didn't want to see his brother anymore. ”

"Hehe", Ah Jin felt that Song Wenyu's conjecture was simply a joke, "As early as when Xiao Shuo colluded with the gang of corruption in Huainan County, their brothers were already destined to be incompatible. No, perhaps...... Their brothers were at odds, and it should have been much earlier. It used to seem like brotherly harmony, but it was just an illusion. How? The saint loves to see this kind of whitewashed illusion of peace? ”

Song Wenyu looked at Ah Jin's face sideways, and suddenly reached out and touched her hair, "When people reach a certain age, they more or less prefer to be deceived by such an illusion. ”

It's a pity that the heavens don't fulfill people's wishes.

Ah Jin stretched, and just as Ah Zhen also put the meal on the table. So she raised her chin at the dinner table and said to Song Wenyu, "You better eat something quickly." I guess you'll have to see your father-in-law later. ”

"I guessed it by you again, I really can't hide anything from you", Song Wenyu nodded Ah Jin's nose, stood up and walked towards the round table.

……

On this night, there was a harmonious scene in the Song Mansion. On the other hand, in the East Palace, there is a slaughter. The queen's late-night visit was already a sign of disproportionateness, but now she couldn't care so much.

"What the hell is going on", Zhu Liangxin sat opposite Xiao Shuo with a pale face, looking at Xiao Shuo with blazing eyes. She looked quite calm on her face, but the hands hidden in her sleeves and clenched together had already revealed her true emotions.

"Song Wenyu said that he found new evidence about the Huainan flood, so he brought up the old matter again", Xiao Shuo held his forehead with one hand, and half of his face was covered by his wide palm, making it impossible to see his true emotions.

"New evidence? What new evidence can he have? Zhu Liangxin frowned, going over and over again in his mind every detail of dealing with these things before, but he couldn't see what went wrong.

"My father didn't say it in the court, and Song Wenyu didn't say it explicitly. Although his father called Song Wenyu to the imperial study later, he didn't seem to talk about it", Xiao Shuo is actually puzzled by Xiao Wusheng's attitude, as if he didn't take this matter to heart, and it doesn't seem to be. The monarch's heart is unpredictable, and it is precisely because of this that he is so uneasy to sleep, "Queen Mother, it's night, you better go back early." ”

"It's okay, I came here through the origin of visiting Xiao Meng's family. Coming in a hurry, and leaving in a hurry, it arouses suspicion", speaking of this, Zhu Liangxin suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Shuo and said, "It's all this time, don't you have any plans to take the Great Meng Clan back?" ”

Xiao Shuo was stunned for a moment, and asked quietly, "Why did the queen mother suddenly mention her." ”

"What this palace means is that since she is the crown princess, the wife you are marrying will always have to advance and retreat with you, what do you say?"

When Xiao Shuo heard this, his eyes became more and more gloomy. He only hoped that he had thought too much about it before he could hear the words of the words, "Queen Mother." She raised the fetus in the other hospital with peace of mind, and she was already advancing and retreating with the emperor. ”

Zhu Liangxin was unusual, but he was not angry, and continued to say slowly: "The emperor is right. She can raise the fetus in another hospital with peace of mind, and she can still share the worries of the emperor. ”

"Mother, what do you want to say?" Xiao Shuo exhaled a breath of turbidity, and simply opened up with Zhu Liangxin.

"Emperor, there are some things that are not good to say too clearly. Since you have this question, it means that you already know what the queen mother wants to say. Isn't it? Zhu Liangxin's voice was cold, and even a little unkind.

Xiao Shuo furrowed his eyebrows, clenched his hands tightly in front of him, and did not answer. Although Zhu Liangxin was a little impatient, he also knew that he couldn't force her at this time. Seeing that the other party had understood what she meant, she stood up and left the main hall of the East Palace with Mama Kong.

As soon as the door was closed, there was a sound of smashing utensils from within. Zhu Liangxin frowned slightly, but did not look back, but continued to walk forward.

"Niangniang, if you say such a thing today, I'm afraid you will hurt His Royal Highness the Prince's heart", Mama Kong lowered her head and said while helping Zhu Liangxin to move forward.

"So what", Zhu Liangxin's eyes reflected this boundless cool night, "Nurse, even if this palace cuts his heart with a blunt knife today, it is for his good." ”

"Niangniang is working hard, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely be able to understand."

Zhu Liangxin smiled bitterly and shook his head, "No matter how much he complains about this palace in the future, this palace only hopes that he can make the right choice at this moment and get through this pass." ”

"Mother, that ...... Xiao Meng's side, do we still want to go over and take a look? Seeing that the master and servant had already walked to the door of the East Palace, Mama Kong suddenly asked.

When Zhu Liangxin heard this, he subconsciously turned his head sideways and glanced in the direction of the side hall, and after a while, he turned around and said, "No need." The main palace is tired, so go back. ”

"Yes", Mama Kong heard this and saluted Zhu Liangxin.

……

Meng Yihan sat in the side hall, looking at the gifts placed in front of her with interest. At her behest, Ruby counted them one by one, until by the time she had registered the last gift, the candle was half burned.

Hongyu rubbed her eyes, raised her eyes and saw Meng Yihan holding her chin with one hand, looking at this side with bright eyes, so she handed over the booklet in her hand, "Madam, the queen mother has given a total of ten gifts, most of them are high-quality herbs for body supplementation, this is the registration booklet, please take a look." ”

Meng Yihan just glanced at the big red booklet and didn't take it. She lazily changed her posture and allowed herself to continue to nest in the chair, but her eyes did not take her eyes off the gift boxes, "All along, whether it is the queen mother or His Royal Highness the Prince, they have all ignored the concubine and the child in the concubine's belly. You say, why did you suddenly send such a thing today? ”

Hongyu shook her head, looking ignorant, "The slave is dull and can't figure it out." ”

"Do you know about the impeachment of the crown prince today", Meng Yihan said, and set his eyes on Hongyu's body.

Ruby stood there a little confused, nodding slightly. She understood what Meng Yihan meant, but she didn't understand the connection.

"I guess, today's queen mother borrowed the excuse to visit me to the East Palace, but in fact, she has been in the main hall", Meng Yihan closed his eyes.

"But...... Why did the Queen do this? ”

"Hide people's eyes. These gifts are the hush money that the queen mother gave to the concubine", Meng Yihan raised his chin towards the splendid boxes piled on the table, "Put them all away, don't take the kindness of the queen mother." If there is something good to inquire about, he will say that the concubine and the queen have a good conversation until late at night. ”

"Yes, the slave can save it", Hongyu nodded, and went out the door to send two little palace maids in and carry the gifts into the small room on the side.

When she returned to the room after all this was arranged, Meng Yihan didn't mean to go to bed yet, so she stepped forward and persuaded: "Madam, it's not early, it's time to sleep." ”

Meng Yihan suddenly asked at this time: "You said, did the queen mother come to see the prince at this time, did she think of any way?" ”

Hongyu was stunned for a moment, and shook her head with a smile, "Madam, the slave maid's brain didn't even think of the key to the incident just now, this ...... The slave and the maid did not know. ”

"If something so big happens, I don't know if my sister will be picked up by the prince," Meng Yihan said to himself. Suddenly, there was a glint in her eyes, and she sat up sharply. The action was so big that it really scared Hongyu.

Hongyu subconsciously stretched out her hand to support her somewhat bulky body, but she gently pushed her away, "Madam? ”

Seeing that she didn't speak, Hongyu looked at her in bewilderment.

"You have been staring at the main hall for the past two days to see if my sister has come back", after a while, Meng Yihan suddenly turned around and stared at Hongyu and ordered.

"Yes", I don't know if it's my own delusion, Hongyu always felt that when the girl said this, her eyes were full of excitement. Although she had doubts in her heart, she didn't dare to ask more.

"Let's go down, I suddenly feel a little tired", Meng Yihan said as he stood up with the help of Hongyu and walked to the edge of the bed and sat down.

Ruby waited for her to fall asleep before leaving the room lightly. It's just that as soon as she left, Meng Yihan's tightly closed eyes opened again.

"If that's the case...... God help me, sister, the sky is on my side, you really can't blame me. ”

……

Annex.

Meng Yidi sat in the room and sewed small clothes for the child in her belly with stitches and threads, and sometimes her eyes were tired, so she raised her head to look at the spring light outside the window.

Zhu'er was waiting on the side, and couldn't help but persuade: "Niangniang, this kind of work is too eye-consuming, and I can't rush it." ”

Meng Yidi glanced at her and smiled slightly: "Don't worry." If you don't let me do these things, what can I do now? ”

When Zhu'er heard her words, she stopped talking, afraid that if she continued to persuade her, she would have to return to her previous state of being a walking corpse. After a moment of silence, Meng Yidi suddenly sighed again, raised his head and looked out the window and said, "What you just said, he also said to me. ”

It goes without saying who the "he" in Meng Yidi's mouth is.

Zhu'er pursed her lips and didn't speak. Meng Yidifu lowered his head again and continued the work at hand. Suddenly, her hand shook, and the embroidery needle punctured her finger. Meng Yidi subconsciously retracted his hand, only to see that the red blood droplets had soaked the embroidery.

"Niangniang, you are injured", Zhu'er smelled the smell of blood, and hurriedly stepped forward to check the injury on her finger.

Meng Yidi let her take her hand to check, and her heart was in turmoil. Suddenly, she stood up, causing Zhu'er to be stunned for a moment.

"Zhu'er, I want to go see Ayu", Meng Yidi turned around and looked at Zhu'er.

"Niangniang, you are embarrassing the slave," Zhu'er responded.

"I know it's hard for you, but if I can't see her today, I won't feel at ease", Meng Yidi withdrew his hand, looked at Zhu'er expectantly and said, "Zhu'er, let me take another look at Shen Yu." ”

Zhu'er was thoughtful, and spoke straightforwardly, "Niangniang wants to see if Shen Yu is okay?" ”

"Hmm. That omen just now made me feel uneasy. I'm worried about ......" Meng Yidi pursed his lips and didn't say any more.

"The slave maid wants to find a way, but it may not be possible", Zhu'er saw that Meng Yidi was very distressed, so she agreed to come down, "Niangniang, you stay here for a while, and the slave and maid will come when they go." ”

Meng Yidi was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly. After that, he sat in the room and waited patiently for Zhu'er.

……

Because of the assistance of the injury medicine sent by the junior brother, in just a few days, most of the injuries on Shen Yu's body were healed. On this day, she was sitting down to pour a cup of tea when the door was pushed open again. Shen Yu looked at the door of the room suspiciously, and saw that it was Zhu'er standing at the door expressionlessly.

"Tea?" She came back to her senses and asked Zhu'er with a smile.

Zhu'er didn't say anything, just quickly closed the door and sat down at the table, "Niangniang always remembers you in her heart, she originally wanted to see you herself." I'll think about it, I'll see if you're more insured than her. Your injuries, how are you recovering? ”

"It's not bad", Shen Yu said, taking a sip of tea, "The injury is already half healed." ”

Zhu'er furrowed her brows and looked at her suspiciously. Shen Yu looked up and saw her looking at herself with such a look, and laughed with a snort, "What? You think I'm talking big. ”

"Isn't it? With such a serious injury, I thought you would have to lie in bed for at least half a month. ”

Shen Yu looked at her with a smile and said, "It seems that you have a lot of experience in healing. ”

Zhu'er pursed her lips and didn't refute, "Since you're fine, I'll go back to my life." lest the mother wait for a long time, she will not be able to sleep well. ”

With that, she stood up and walked out.

"Zhu'er", Shen Yu saw this, and hurriedly called her, "Niangniang's situation is good recently?" ”

Zhu'er paused, and only after a while did she turn around and look at Shen Yu with mixed tastes: "Niangniang's situation is not good. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hasn't been to the other courtyard for a while. ”

What Zhu'er didn't say was that Xiao Shuo would still come over and sneak a glance at Meng Yidi before. Now, there is not even a figure. She also knew a little about what was going on in the palace. Zhu'er was worried that if Xiao Shuo didn't come for a long time, Meng Yidi would be aware of those things.

When Shen Yu heard this, he was silent for a while. Zhu'er saw that she had nothing to ask again, so she didn't stop there. Seeing the sound of Zhu'er's footsteps fading away, the young man paced out slowly from behind the screen.

"Senior sister, that little girl can also do kung fu?" The boy asked, raising his chin toward the door.

Shen Yu glanced at him and said, "There is a dragon and a crouching tiger hidden in the inner city, and there are a few little maids who can do kung fu, which is not surprising. It's you, the monkey's tail is clamped tighter, don't let them find out. ”

"Of course I know that. I don't dare to mess up the errand ordered by the senior sister", the young man touched his nose and asked tentatively: "Senior sister, you see, your injuries have already healed most of them." How is it? Can you go with me? ”

"Put this aside for the time being, I have something to ask you", Shen Yu said, moved his body, and sat facing the young man, "Is there something going on in the palace?" ”

The boy blinked, looking innocent and ignorant, "What's the matter?" I really don't know. Senior sister, we are not from Tongtian Pavilion, where can we know about the things in this palace. ”

"Do you really not know, or do you not want me to know?" Shen Yu squinted his eyes slightly and continued to ask.

"Senior sister, you can spare me. I was able to get out of the valley this time just to bring you back. I really don't know anything else", the young man spread his hands, and his tone was very innocent.

“…… You go back, you don't have to come back again", Shen Yu lowered his head and thought about it, and finally made such a decision. The boy stared at her with wide eyes, not understanding why she had said such a thing all of a sudden. He opened his mouth, and just wanted to persuade a few words, but was interrupted by Shen Yu again, "I will write a letter, and you can bring it back to restore your life." Don't worry, she won't embarrass you. ”

"Senior sister......" The young man trembled when he thought of the valley master's cold eyes, "If you don't go back with me, I won't dare to go back." ”

"Then you will send my letter to the Yunlai Inn, and let the people of Tongtian Pavilion run for you", Shen Yu looked at the young man expressionlessly, and said unmoved.

The boy was dumbfounded. Let the people of Tongtian Pavilion appear at the door of the Medicine King Valley, and it is also to send Shen Yu's handwritten letter, then he is really dying.

He hung his head in resignation, and said with a little crying: "Come on, I'll run for you myself." You are really my sister-in-law, the sister-in-law of the Medicine King Valley. ”

As he spoke, the young man arched his hand to Shen Yu, indicating that he was willing to bow down.

Shen Yu saw that the young man had given in, so he immediately took a pen and paper and began to write a letter. When the payment was made, she hesitated for a long time, and then handed the letter to the young man after writing and sealing it, "You take this letter back, she will definitely not blame you." ”

The young man didn't believe that a letter could have such a great effect, so he took the letter into his arms and looked at Shen Yu curiously: "I'm just curious, why does Senior Sister insist on staying." ”

"If you don't tell me, I have a vague feeling that something big must have happened. As you can see, the crown princess has always been worried about me, and if I leave, it will only make her current difficult situation worse. I can't leave now, at least I have to see that she's safe and sound before leaving. ”

These twists and turns of the struggle for imperial power, the young man can't figure it out. But Shen Yu's chivalry, he can still understand. So he nodded and bowed his hand to Shen Yu: "Since Senior Sister has made up her mind, then I will also take this letter back to the Medicine King Valley to resume my life." It's just that...... If I'm gone, you'll be here alone. If the original intention of the senior sister to stay is to protect others, she must protect herself first. ”

Shen Yu felt that the boy's proposal also made sense. She thought about it, but finally sighed and said, "You're right. Before you leave the royal capital, go to the inn and inform the shopkeeper of my decision. ”

"Okay, I'll go now", the young man got the order, stood up and said goodbye to Shen Yu, "Senior sister, take care." ”

As he spoke, he flew out through the small open window beside him.
