Chapter 158: The Empress suddenly repented
At that time, the emperor was still complacent in the palace, planning how to build the Moon Palace licensed to the beauties after getting the real power, but because the budget was too large, he was vetoed by the ministers, especially the ministers headed by Ye Mingting.
It's really unpleasant.
This time Ye Mingting 'had an accident', and even in the Jing'an Hou Mansion, there were a large number of people who were rebelled, although they were severely punished by Ling Jin, but the entire Hou Mansion was still purged by Ye Mingting, he did not completely reject the eyeliner sent by the emperor before, this time, he was extremely disgusted.
But those who can be dealt with with by capital punishment have no way to live.
When it is time to be ruthless, you should not be soft-hearted.
The big move of the Hou Mansion obviously made some ministers with dark forces begin to wake up, and they all switched to Ye Mingting's column.
Early the next morning, the ministers all came to court, however, a snow-white carved carriage drove towards the imperial city, causing everyone to exclaim, followed by a familiar purple figure, slowly walking towards the main hall.
"Long live the emperor." All the ministers shouted in unison, and the purple figure, as commanded by the holy oracle before, did not need to kowtow.
He was alone, standing among the kneeling courtiers, with a long posture and a solemn expression.
When the emperor saw that Ye Mingting was here, his face was shocked, and there was no news under his hand that Ye Mingting was safe and sound.
He sorted out his expression, and after shouting 'Zhongqing is flat', he began to care for Ye Mingting for a while, and said: "Aiqing was assassinated a while ago and sacrificed his life for me, I am very moved, I don't know when Aiqing will return safely, and I won't report it, so that I can take care of Aiqing more." ”
What he said was fake and very satisfying, but Ye Mingting couldn't bear to sneer.
This drama is quite sufficient.
Of course, he has to give the emperor a face.
Thinking like this, Ye Mingting said with a smile: "Wei Chen is fortunate to have escaped from the hands of the gangsters, which is really a blessing from the emperor. ”
However, what is the matter itself, everyone should know in their hearts.
The emperor sighed: "Let Aiqing be in danger, I am very worried, why don't Aiqing cultivate for a while, and hand over the post of jurisdiction in the northern Xinjiang to the military department?" It is also necessary to let Aiqing recuperate well. ”
What he said was high-sounding was to seize power, and the ministers also understood it in their hearts.
"How dare the minister forget the country, or don't bother, the minister is in his position, and he should take his own responsibility." Ye Mingting said respectfully.
However, there was a sneer in my heart.
The emperor never thought that he would be able to make Ye Mingting hand over power like this, and if he failed this time, he naturally had no idea of achieving it overnight.
Therefore, he gave Ye Mingting a lot of rewards to show that Ye Mingting should be rewarded in that assassination, and by the way, he picked up his suspicion of harming the ministers, so as not to make the rest of the ministers feel cold.
Ye Mingting listened to the reward given to him by the emperor, which was no less than the reward for victory in a war, and did not comment.
And the emperor's heart seemed to be dripping blood, so much of the property he planned to start squandering disappeared so easily.
"In this case, then thank you to the emperor." Ye Mingting accepted all the rewards with a smile, and didn't even shirk the slightest.
This appearance made the emperor even more hateful.
The court meeting did not last long, and the gossip in the hearts of the ministers gradually rose, and the emperor encountered such a bad thing, and even the palace that he had planned to build for his concubine was also in the soup, so naturally he didn't have the heart to stay in the court.
The early dynasty will soon be over.
When Ye Mingting went down to court, there were still many ministers who planned to come to the court, but Ye Mingting walked extremely fast, and he did not give these people any loopholes.
When he left the palace, he got into the carriage directly and drove slowly towards the Hou Mansion.
And all the Shangshu were annoyed that they were almost on the wrong side.
Especially with the military department Shangshu first, he looked at Ye Mingting's carriage gradually moving away, on the one hand, he was sighing at the bumps in his official road, and on the other hand, he was glad that he had not received the 'reward' that the emperor intended to give him, otherwise, in a few days, maybe his head would not be able to grow well on his head.
Ye Mingting went down to the court, and saw Bai Yulan who was talking to the envoy of Fanbang.
This Fanbang envoy does look like a person from the Hui Dynasty, but his clothes don't look like a person from the Hui Dynasty, he should be from the Central Plains, but it's not my dynasty, this person, is it from the Central Kingdom?
"Husband, are you back?" Bai Yulan saw Ye Mingting and said with some joy: "I didn't expect you to go down to the court so early, and it would take a long time to delay it." ”
Seeing that Ye Mingting seemed to be very confused about Naka's identity, she said with some pleasure: "This is Naka, she said that she is from the country next door to us." ”
Speaking of this, Bai Yulan scratched her head, and after thinking about it for a long time, she still didn't come up with the name of that country.
"Yangguo?" Ye Mingting was the first to speak.
"Yes, yes, yes, it's the central country." Bai Yulan smiled, took Naka's hand, turned around, and said to Ye Mingting: "Naka, this is my husband." ”
Ye Mingting actually didn't like to deal with strangers, but Bai Yulan had good intentions and made friends with this Yangguo person, and Yangguo and Huiguo have always been good friends, so he naturally didn't want to brush her mind.
Ye Mingting smiled at the little girl, nodded his head, and didn't say much.
The little girl was interested in Ye Mingting, and teased Bai Yulan loudly: "White girl, your husband is so handsome, that is, in our central country, he is one of the most beautiful men, handsome and tall, with a healthy complexion. ”
In the Hui Dynasty, it was the appearance of Bai Yulan disguised as a man, and a kind of feminine beauty was used as the definition of beauty, and it seems that there are still some differences between the cultures of the two countries.
"My husband has always galloped on the battlefield, so he naturally has to have a tall figure." An inexplicable sense of pride swelled up in Bai Yulan's heart.
Naka was obviously attracted by other affairs, Ye Mingting had just gone to court, Bai Yulan thought that he might have something to explain to her, so he let Lu Yi play with Naka temporarily.
After Naka and Luyi left, Ye Mingting frowned, pressed his eyebrows, and said, "Who is this little girl?" Yang Guoren, why did you suddenly meet you? ”
"Naka, you say?" Bai Yulan raised his head.
Ye Mingting raised her eyebrows, and she smiled and said slowly: "Naka bought some jewelry in my shop, and I only knew her." ”
"She was born petite and exquisite, not very old, and interested in the culture of my capital, speaking an awkward Huiguo dialect, but she is simple and kind, and she was almost deceived by traffickers to Hualou, I thought that she was alone outside, and she was in a foreign country, so she should naturally help, so I will help."
What's more, this little girl is quite like her.
Ye Mingting saw Bai Yulan with a smile on her face, rubbed her hair, and said, "Then it's up to you, but you have to control everything, don't put yourself in danger, and keep a few more eyes on everything." ”
Bai Yulan nodded, looking obedient.
Naturally, he didn't say much, according to Bai Yulan's age, he was actually not too old, but he had been wandering for six years with two children, and naturally some of her bad things were wiped out, and he felt a little pity in his heart for a while.
No, Bai Yulan, who replaced the original master, has already changed his shell, and there is no such thing as a mess, and he is a person who has lived for two lifetimes.
"How is it going to court today?" Bai Yulan interrupted his movements.
"Naturally, it's business as usual." Ye Mingting said with a smile: "The emperor also gave the Hou Mansion a lot of rewards, when the time comes, you let the account room go to take inventory, I look at the emperor and probably get rid of some of his old books." ”
"Above the court, looking at such a big living person in front of him, what else don't you understand, the power can't be taken away, and it can't be divided, so naturally you should stand in line, those ministers, they are all clear in their hearts." Ye Mingting sneered.
The list that Ling Jin sorted out last time was considered to have asked him to dig out some of the wall grass in the court, and specially put a red mark on them, so as not to step on the pit in the future.
That Naka is obviously not a simple one, it depends on whether it is really simple or falsely simple.
After listening to Ye Mingting's analysis of these court matters, Bai Yulan firmly remembered in her heart that she couldn't make mistakes in some major matters.
"In this way, there are no big accidents in the Hou Mansion this time, which is a good thing." Bai Yulan smiled.
"Madam, Mr. Li wrote a letter, saying that before you went to the palace last time, the pastry shops that he asked him to open have doubled, and now they are particularly prosperous, and he plans to let Madame take a look.
After listening to Hongli's words, Bai Yulan agreed with her mouth, and didn't care about Ye Mingting's somewhat tasteful appearance.
Brother Li has some thoughts now, and she has long since stopped, and she is also thinking about choosing a good day to find a good girl with an innocent and kind background for Brother Li.
"Ma'am." Dressed in an emerald green shirt, Lu Yi hurriedly walked towards Bai Yulan, and Naka was not in the same place as her.
"Where's Naka?" Bai Yulan didn't see anyone, and asked with a frown.
"Miss Naka is taking a nap right now." Lu Yi said anxiously: "But the queen mother came and said that she was asking the lady to go and administer justice." ”
"Justice?" Bai Yulan was a little stunned for a while.
"Madam, don't you remember, it was when I was in that palace, Little Prince An Ling and Miss Xu, that incident, the queen mother suddenly regretted it now, I have to say that Little Prince An is not good for Miss Xu, and I came to find Mrs. as a witness." Greenwill said distressedly.
Madame didn't see this with her own eyes, so why did she want Madame to play such a double-sided and difficult role? must be trying to use the power of Jing'anhou behind his wife's back to suppress everyone's mouth.
Bai Yulan could naturally think of this, and she was a little embarrassed, even if she saw it with her own eyes, she didn't want to go.
"Madame is slightly ill, since the last desperate escape, she is still sick, this witness, Madame can't do it." Ye Mingting saw Bai Yulan's embarrassed face, and immediately helped her refuse: "You just tell the queen like this, just say that Benhou said it, and Madame didn't hear any words about going." ”
Lu Yi was a little stunned for a while, but he still respectfully responded, and he slowly retreated.
"Wait." Bai Yulan called out to the green.
"If I don't go, will the queen be ......?" she hesitated.
