Chapter 301: Watching the Fire from the Other Shore (4)
Uncle Guo smiled, "Naturally, if the Punishment Master doesn't dislike it, then if the Punishment Master wants to get something from us, please don't hesitate to say it." β
Cao Tingyue also laughed, "What Uncle Guo said, what's the matter, aren't you afraid that my lion will open his mouth?" β
"If the Executioner is willing to speak, then it will be our blessing, and now, I am afraid that the Executioner will not speak."
Cao Tingyue lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and then was silent, Uncle Guo beat a drum in his heart, thinking that he was still a little late, did he regret it?
If the Great Prince's people had found him nowβit wasn't impossible.
After all, the people in the Great Prince's Mansion are only afraid that their donkey skills are poor, even if the Great Prince no longer likes the eunuchs in Dongchang, but if he thinks that if he has the opportunity to fish out the Great Prince now, he is afraid that they will be willing to do anything.
Then it seems normal that he will really ask for Cao Tingyu.
If you think about it this way, maybe they will come up with more attractive conditions, what will it be?
At least Uncle Guo didn't think of it now, but he was just worried that if it was ...... Cao Tingyue really chose the Great Prince's Mansion, which means that they buried the great advantage that was already at hand in this way.
Uncle Guo couldn't sit still, he moved in the chair, and then said, "Please don't be polite, no matter what the master wants, if it is something that the lower official or the queen's mother can take out, we will definitely offer it with both hands, it is absolutely sincere." β
Cao Tingyue put down the tea bowl, and then sighed, "Why should Uncle Guo be like this, I have never doubted your sincerity." β
He twisted his fingers again, "It's just that I'm afraid, this matter is our wishful thinking, if the queen mother refuses, this is blunt......"
"How could the mother refuse." Uncle Guo immediately took over the conversation, "Today, the lower official entered the palace to meet Niangniang, and what he said was about this matter, Niangniang listened, I don't know how much relief and happiness, thinking that the master of the punishment did not care about the previous suspicions, before, there was indeed some unhappiness between the queen and the queen, but where is there an eternal enemy in this world, if you can take this opportunity to shake hands and make peace, why not?" β
Cao Tingyue smiled, "Niangniang is also Ken?" β
"Niangniang is very happy, how can Niangniang not know what status is in charge of punishment in Dongchang now, and what status is it in His Majesty's heart, Niangniang knows it very well, in the end, now we are evenly matched......"
Cao Tingyue glanced at him, in fact, he knew how could it be evenly matched now, no matter what, I was afraid that it was also the queen's side that was climbing.
The second-in-command of the East Factory is willing to help her, this is to send the ladder over, what else is there to say.
In Uncle Guo's heart, the queen is still twisting, isn't this burying herself?
Fortunately, Cao Tingyue really doesn't know that the queen is twisted, otherwise he would have to hesitate even more.
"So, please don't hesitate to take charge of the punishment, now that the eldest prince is already in the Zongren Mansion, our second prince must be the best hope today, and the punishment should also be seen clearly?"
Cao Tingyue smiled, "What Uncle Guo said is extremely true. He nodded, "I already know about this, Uncle Guo, please don't worry, just go back to the house and rest." β
Uncle Guo hurriedly asked, "What about the eldest prince......
The queen is working the emperor's side, but the uncle pinned his hopes on Cao Tingyu at this time, as if he hoped that Cao Tingyu could do something from it, so that the eldest prince would have no chance to turn over.
Cao Tingyue smiled, "The eldest prince is already in the Zongren Mansion, what else is there to disagree with Uncle Guo?" β
"It's just that he hasn't been questioned yet...... "He was uneasy after all.
"Asking about the crime, this is the prince's business, and Your Majesty will definitely ask in person. But if he does it, it will definitely be difficult to escape the responsibility, and the so-called Son of Heaven should be guilty of the same crime as the common people. This prince broke the law, and it should be so. β
Uncle Guo understood, he was a little relieved, stood up, and then arched his hand at Cao Tingyue, "Then if that's the case, Weichen will thank the master here." β
Cao Tingyu really took out his posture at this time, just sat in the seat, and then had a little smile on his face, "Uncle Guo is very polite." β
Uncle Guo suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, and then hurried out.
After going out, the little guy who was waiting for him outside sighed, "Master, why doesn't your face seem to be good?" Isn't it unpleasant to say in it? β
Not really, it went well, but it wasn't very pleasant.
He shook his head, "It's okay, let's go home." β
It's just that he said 10,000 words Cao Tingyu in his heart, and he only felt that this rootless eunuch was so big that he was doing this in front of him.
If it weren't for the fact that there was really a place to use him now, he would not have been connived at like this.
Uncle Guo consciously endured humiliation.
But apart from him, no one would know that he had made so many efforts, after all, at this time, the queen had just arrived at the door of the imperial study.
Lu Cheng came out, "I've seen the queen." He looked inside, "Why is Niangniang here now, Your Majesty is seeing the Minister of Military Aircraft inside." β
The queen said, "This palace has something to ask to see Your Majesty, but I didn't expect it to be so coincidental." β
Lu Cheng said, "These adults have been here for a while, and it is estimated that they will be okay in a while, why don't they ask someone to send a chair over, and the mother will rest outside first?" β
The empress nodded, anyway, she was definitely going to see the emperor today.
However, why did the Minister of War and Aircraft come at this time, she was a little strange, and asked, "What's going on inside?" Why is this time coming? β
The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, not to mention that since the matter of the previous dynasty has passed the ears of this Lu Cheng, it is absolutely impossible to talk about it.
The queen was originally prepared not to hear anything.
But Lu Cheng actually said it.
He whispered, "The specifics, the minions are not clear. It's just that...... It seems to be about the Northern Yin. β
"What?" The queen's voice suddenly rose up, "Beiyin? How could it be about the North Yin? β
Jiahe just had a relationship with Beiyin last year, and it is estimated that the ass in Beiyin has not yet been hot, why is there another war between the two places?
If that's the case, then how can Jiahe live in Beiyin?
Speaking of which, I haven't talked about Jiahe for a long time, but last month, the queen received a letter from Jiahe, saying that the child in her belly was not saved.
The queen also cried fiercely for this, it should be a tiring journey all the way, and Jiahe's body was originally delicate, this just arrived in Beiyin, I am afraid that it is even more unadaptable, these are all five or six month children, if there is another month, they can be born and raised, but they went like this.
Jiahe paid so much for this child, but in the end, it turned out to be a bamboo basket for water, Jiahe was depressed, and the letter to the queen was full of tears.
But even so, what can the queen do, she can only cry thousands of miles away for her grandson, who has disappeared without a mask.
But soon, the news that the second princess was pregnant made the queen erase all those sadness.
Jiahe is now in Beiyin, she is a person from Beiyin, she is thousands of miles away, no matter what, she is beyond the reach of the whip, and the reply letter can only explain that she must take care of her body, and the child will have it in the future.
After all, she is the princess of Chen Guo, and this Beiyin doesn't look at the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha, and he definitely doesn't dare to treat her.
But how Jiahe lived in Liu Chuchen's harem, no one really knows. But now it is said that the border between the two countries is not very peaceful, and perhaps to a large extent, it represents the attitude of Liu Chuchen and Beiyin.
If they have this attitude, they are afraid that it will not be easy to live in Jiahe.
The queen thought so, and her face turned pale.
Lu Cheng hurriedly said, "Niangniang doesn't have to worry now, it's just a matter of the slave listening to it, what is the actual situation, the slave is indeed not clear, this Beiyin and the border of our country have conflicts from time to time, but there has not been a real fight, this time may be the same, Niangniang can rest assured." β
The queen nodded reluctantly, and she took a deep breath, "I hope so." β
During the conversation, the people inside came out, they saluted the queen in a regular manner, and then Lu Cheng went in to reply, and after a while, he came out and invited the queen in.
The queen nodded, now her heart is in turmoil, and she has the matter of Beiyin Jiahe, the second prince and the eldest prince in her heart, and she doesn't know what to say first when she sees the emperor.
But in the end, it is easier to worry about what is invisible, and after the queen saw the emperor, she first said, "Your Majesty...... A few ministers came over just now and talked about the war in Beiyin? β
The emperor frowned, and his tone sank, "Empress, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, you are the master of the harem, is there no sense of proportion?" β
The queen hurriedly said, "The concubine is not to interfere in politics, the concubine is just ......" She pursed her lips and lowered her head again, "Your Majesty, Jiahe is in Beiyin, she has just been married for less than two months, this Beiyin means, the concubine is really worried about Jiahe." β
The emperor snorted coldly, "When she did such a shameful thing, I already didn't recognize her as a daughter, since she had to marry Beiyin, she would be a person from Beiyin from now on, then Beiyin's life and death is her life and death, you are the queen of Chen State, and what does it have to do with Beiyin's concubine?" β
The queen just knew, but she was afraid that Beiyin's side was really going to fight with Chen Guo, so she knelt down in a daze, "Your Majesty...... That's, that's our Jiahe. β
