Chapter 704: Questioned by the Temple
Chapter 704: When the temple asked
Xiao Ying smiled and nodded.
"Yes, as long as the two of us are together, we have nothing to fear."
“…… The trial is tomorrow's business, and we haven't done today's business yet. Feng Ge raised his eyebrows, and said meaningfully.
Xiao Ying looked puzzled. "Concubine Hui has settled down there, and Empress Dowager Qi has also settled down. What else hasn't been done? "Do you only have Concubine Hui and Empress Dowager Qi in your heart? Ah Ying, there is only one thing you should see in your eyes...... That's me. ”
So, what he said didn't do. Could it be...... Xiao Ying thought, and she didn't know whether God was kind to her or harsh on her.
sent a domineering emperor to her, but this guy will make trouble at night......
The emperor got married, and the dynasty was boycotted for three days. On the first day, they greeted the Empress Dowager Qi and Concubine Hui, and on the second day, the emperor and queen set up a banquet to invite civil and military officials. Feng Ge gave them this opportunity. It's just that today several elders of the Zongren Mansion took leave, saying that they were sick.
Yun Chi took the lead in saluting Xiao Ying.
In front of each of them there was a small table, on which were a few dishes.
The dishes were naturally good, but the hundred officials were obviously more interested in the young empress kneeling beside the emperor.
Changning.
This name has been known to everyone for more than a year. From the original laughing stock to the current country. The last time Changning went to the palace to sue Feng Ye, at that time, people just thought that this little girl was really bold and stubborn.
At the beginning, he stalked Feng Ye to death, but now that he and Feng Ge have come together, they turned their heads and dealt a ruthless hand to Feng Ye.
Although it is indeed inappropriate for the second prince to do it.
But in the middle of the night, she was not afraid of ruining her reputation.
Anyway, if this is done to other girls, it will definitely not be possible. But Xiao Ying did it very calmly, and in the end, she let Feng Ye lose the throne. In the end, even the crown prince was surrendered. The new emperor could not yet discern how his temperament would come. It's really that this Fifth Highness is inconspicuous on weekdays, but as soon as he makes a move, it is a killer move.
There were still people who thought that Feng Ge's life was good.
It is also a few princes who are not angry, and they fight fiercely in the nest, so that Feng Ge can reap the benefits of the fisherman. Later, I learned that although the reputation of the Fifth Highness in the capital is not obvious, but in the counties, the reputation is excellent.
It can even be said that only when the five highnesses succeed to the throne, the counties can be safe and sound, and if any prince succeeds to the throne, it will cause a shock and catastrophe. Obviously, I haven't seen how the Fifth Highness moves, how can he have such a high reputation......
Only then did the courtiers react.
Feng Ge is also ambitious, but the methods he uses are different from others.
He did not try to compete for power with several princes in the capital, his vision was farther and broader.
So in the end, Feng Ge won, which seems to be reasonable. What's even more surprising is that he actually married Changning. That's the princess of the Xiao family, and none of the previous Feng Emperors could marry a foreign woman as a wife, let alone be canonized as a queen.
How did he do it?
And this time it's still like the last time I fought for the crown prince's position, and it is not obvious.
Zongrenfu likes to pick bones in eggs the most, but this time he didn't make a sound. Moreover, at the big wedding banquet two days ago, the new emperor directly refuted the most senior sect elder in the Zongren Mansion, and their previous speculation that the new emperor and the Zongren Mansion had a close relationship was obviously nothing.
Some people are worried that the Zongren Mansion will eventually control the government by promoting Feng Ge to succeed to the throne, and then take the new emperor.
Now this concern is clearly unfounded. Because the new emperor doesn't seem to have a good relationship with the Zongren Mansion.
It can be seen from the fact that the emperor and queen came forward to feast the courtiers today, and the entire Zongren Mansion took leave.
Everyone had different thoughts, but no one dared to despise the young and excessive Empress Changning who was sitting next to the emperor.
That's a ...... How to describe it. When I saw her for the first time, I only felt calm. She sat beside the emperor without saying a word, and she seemed to have a sense of reassurance. At second glance, I found that although Queen Changning was not a beauty in Allure, her appearance was indeed just right. If you add one point, you will be excessive, and if you lose one point less. The eyebrows and eyes are light, quiet and pleasant.
She lifted her eyes and swiped.
Everyone who was swept by her gaze couldn't help but sit upright.
It was as if she didn't have to open her mouth to know what was in their hearts.
But she looked gentle, and everyone seemed to have a smile in their eyes.
Some people sighed lightly, at a young age, it was already like this. This queen lady is really not simple.
There are well-informed people, and they can't help but think of several major events that Changning has done recently. At first, he secretly laughed at the Fifth Highness in his heart for having no vision, how could he pick and choose such a person.
is not an honest husband and child at home, but likes to go in and out of the government punishment room.
What is the one thing a girl should do?
Such a girl...... Marrying home is also a peaceful day for the family. Some people even used Changning as a teaching material to reprimand their daughter. Let her daughter not learn Changning everywhere, how Changning does it, she will do the opposite, that is what everyone should be.
But at this moment.
They looked at Changning, who was dignified and clear-eyed. I suddenly felt stupid about myself.
What's the point of a cookie-cutter girl. Raising and raising it is like a mold carved out. Only a girl like Changning, who looks gentle and gentle, but can actually be compared to a man, is hard to find in the world.
Most of the courtiers were only interested in Changning and did not really mean to provoke.
Imperial power is supreme, and obedience is an instinct. After seeing the emperor, my heart was steady, thinking that I should assist the young emperor well and strive to be the emperor's right-hand man.
But there are also some arrogant people who think that the emperor and empress are too young, and they don't believe the rumors about Changning that they heard in private.
A little girl, a year ago, she didn't know anything and had a brutal temperament. Could it be that after wandering outside for a year, I learned a skill?
Autopsy? Solve a case? Murderer? I heard that it seems that he has fought with people in formations?
It's incredible.
They didn't want to provoke the imperial power, they admired Feng Ge, they submitted to the new emperor, but they were only superficially respectful to the queen. If they were to be as loyal to Changning as they were to Feng Ge, they wouldn't be able to do it.
There are two prime ministers.
One is Xie Xiang, who is now a grasshopper after the autumn, and he has been jumping for a few days.
The other is Lou Baiyun, Lou Xiang. This is the shadow of the ancestors. Because his father was the former Zuo Xiang, the former Zuo Xiang was old, and he returned to his hometown and recommended his son.
Emperor Geng thanked the Lou family for several generations of loyalty, so he nodded.
So the youngest son of the Lou family took over the position of prime minister.
When he succeeded to the throne, this little prince of Loufu was not even thirty years old. He knew that he was young and he was afraid that he would not be able to suppress the position of prime minister, so he asked to be released.
After three years of exile, the position of prime minister was barely secured after returning to Beijing.
He is different from Xie Xiang, Xie Xiang is an outgoing personality, and he likes to circle around Emperor Geng the most, but Lou Baiyun is very introverted, except for going to court every day, he does not form a party, does not make friends, and does not go out.
It's simply a model of modern otaku.
However, it is very authoritative among the officials.
If the territory is divided for the imperial court. Yun Chi occupies most of the country, and the other half is controlled by Lou Baiyun, and he controls it very casually and secretly, and outsiders can hardly see it.
But he did hold a lot of power, and he never participated in the struggle for power.
In other words, he has no opinion on which emperor is the prince.
However, whether he is loyal or not depends on his mood.
From beginning to end, from Emperor Geng's decree to establish Feng Ge as the crown prince, to Emperor Geng's death, Feng Ge's marriage and succession, this young Lou Xiang has behaved very casually.
It should be worshipped, it should be safe, and there is no word on the side.
Everything Yun Chi arranged, he also did everything he did, without the slightest displeasure.
But Yun Chi has mentioned this Lou Xiang more than once in private. Say this man...... Beware, be vigilant. On the other hand, he praised him for being a talent, if he can be used by Feng Ge and sincerely do things for the court, Feng Ge can save half of his strength.
So when everyone finished saluting and sat down, Lou Baiyun suddenly got up, and everyone's eyes instantly looked at him.
Lou Xiang is over thirty years old, and he looks like he is twenty-five or sixteen years old. Although he was dressed in official robes, he behaved like a scholar.
The courtesy of the line is also the courtesy of a gentleman.
Feng Ge's expression was indifferent, his face was not happy or angry, Lou Baiyun smiled faintly, and then arched his hand and said: "The minister listened to some of Empress Changning's remarks, and he was really curious. I believe that the ministers are also like the ministers, but it is inconvenient to speak, since the ministers occupy the position of the prime minister, they must always be anxious about the urgency of the adults, so the ministers can only throw bricks and lead the jade. Queen Mother, are the rumors true? ”
Feng Ge looked sideways at Xiao Ying.
The two are very close, and the two small tables are also very close. Under Xiao Ying's wide skirt, the hands of the two were tightly pulled, and Xiao Ying shook Feng Ge's hand back with a slight gas, signaling that he didn't have to care.
Yun Chi reminded him.
Lou Baiyun is a decent gentleman. No matter who he is dealing with, he will never play yin.
Therefore, such a person, whether as an enemy or a friend, is worthy of respect. Since he opened his mouth, Xiao Ying felt that it was a good phenomenon, at least he already had some affection for Feng Ge, the new monarch, in his heart.
As for her, the queen...... The rumors out there are indeed true and false. In some rumors, she is simply a hopeless lady, domineering, vain, and a big carrot.
In short, if she hears such a rumor, she also thinks that this girl is simply a sven scum, and she does not abide by the woman's way and should sink into the pond.
According to some rumors, she has saved countless people and is very capable. It can almost call the wind and rain......
It's just one day and one place. Sometimes even Xiao Ying herself sighed that the ancients were really powerful. It's comparable to modern Internet public opinion.
Lou Baiyun directly questioned her, which was a good thing in Xiao Ying's opinion. It's better than never being able to get into the eyes of this Lou Xiang. "Lou Xiang, how can you question Niangniang like this? It's too much. Xie Xiang saw the stitches, hoping that he could get into the eyes of the emperor and queen by flattery. Recently, Xie Xiang's life has been really difficult, so now as long as he has the opportunity, even if he sees a needle, he has to refute his favor in front of the emperor.
Lou Baiyun and Xie are different.
He has always looked down on Xie Xiang. So he didn't even blink his eyes at Xie Xiang's accusation.
He asked, and Emperor Changning was willing to answer. What are you doing? Have a finger in the pie!
Xie Xiang didn't feel embarrassed at all, Lou Baiyun and him didn't agree at all, and the two of them didn't talk much on weekdays.
But in front of the emperor and queen, Lou Baiyun is still like this, Xie Xiang feels that the surname Lou is too ignorant. The courage is too big, maybe, he can take the opportunity to step on the surname Lou. Thinking of this, Xie Xiang's expression became more and more respectful.
"Your Majesty, Niangniang, Lou Xiang is a little younger after all, and he owes a little bit of proportionality in his speech, and I ask Your Majesty Niangniang to forgive me one or two."
Lou Baiyun sneered. "It's always been like this, Lord Xie should take care of it." "Lou Xiang, we are ministers in the same hall, and I can't bear to see the adults anger Tianyan, so I opened my mouth to persuade each other. In the next kindness, I hope Lou Xiang will be considerate. Lou Baiyun looked away, disdainfully ignoring Xie Xiang. Xie Xiang touched his nose and his face was gloomy, and at this moment he could only hope that this Empress Changning was a pampered temper as rumored outside, and his daughter Xie Fei also said that she was not easy to mess with.
Being questioned like this by the surname Lou, she will definitely be furious?
Xie Xiang thought to himself that he would definitely be able to suppress the surname Lou this time.
But......
Whether it is Lou Baiyun or the young emperor, they don't seem to take Xie Xiang in their eyes.
Xiao Ying had a faint smile in her eyes, but instead of being angry, she asked rhetorically with interest. What does Lou Xiang think? Which ones do you want to be true? Which ones are fake? ”
Lou Baiyun's eyes lit up slightly.
Changning was not angry, he was not stage frightened, but his smiling rhetorical question had already made Lou Baiyun feel good.
He has lived too smoothly in his life, the prime minister, he himself is a good brain, and he can recite the poems that others can only understand after reading them three times. What others think is obscure, he thinks it's nothing more than that.
When he was a child, successive gentlemen praised him as a prodigy.
In the end, he took over his father's class, and even if he didn't take over, he was confident that he would be able to pass the exam. His family affairs are good, so he won't go to the name of the champion with those poor children.
From childhood to adulthood, Lou Baiyun felt that everything was not a test for him.
It is not difficult to study, do learning, and become an official.
When Emperor Geng was in power, he couldn't raise much interest, because he felt a miasma everywhere he looked. He alone could not change anything.
He is very self-aware of this, and Emperor Geng is not an emperor who can do great things.
The emperor is like this, and these courtiers are naturally subservient.
Emperor Geng likes to be honest, so he should be an honest courtier. Every day I go to the court, go home and chant a poem and make a painting, and my life is easy. But such days are also hard to eat, especially those who are ambitious, and they will feel that they are living like years.
In a sense, he is actually connected to Yun Chi with the same disease.
They are all full of ambitions, but they meet an emperor who can't take care of things.
In the end, I could only shrink into my own small yard and be in a state of confusion all day long. Lou Baiyun watched the vitality on Yun Chi's body get stronger day by day, and every day seemed to be in the wind, but the smile on his face became more and more dazzling.
Lou Baiyun thought, maybe, he can too.
That's why he spoke in public. Questioning the emperor and queen is naturally disrespectful. If he was reprimanded and punished, he wanted to ...... My life is destined to be a mess.
But no.
The young emperor even asked him with great interest, which sentence he hoped was true and which was false?
Interesting, really interesting.
