Waiting for Mu Bicheng to leave, Ah Shan's face was gloomy, and he said quietly: "Does the girl think that this way you can test whether Xiaolang is on your side?" ”

"Fang Cai's words are half-true, and he didn't say everything, and he didn't care if he said it." Mu Bi frowned slightly, and said softly, "Now that my heart is very chaotic, where do I still have the heart to test him?" ”

"The senior deputy commander has always treated Xiaolang well." Ah Shan said, "The Gao family is also a very good backer, if Xiaolang tells the Xu family today's words, the slave dares to pack the ticket, and the Xu family would rather choose the Gao family." ”

Mu Bi said lightly: "She wants to join the Gao family, but she also has to see if the Gao family wants her?" ”

He said, "You think too much, even when I am the most favored, the first hated person in the eyes of the Queen Mother will not be my turn, and now that there is a new person in the palace, I will not be able to hinder the Queen Mother." ”

Ah Shan sighed: "Don't talk about this, even if those words reach the ears of the senior deputy commander, he has a way to get out of Yedu, how can he come to this palace?" ”

"He's been in the Feihe Guard for some days, and he's from the Yecheng Army again." Mu Bi said casually, "Now the palace is the Feihe Guard inside and the Yecheng Army Guard outside, why can't he enter?" ”

"But it's ...... be honest like this," Ah Shan muttered.

"It's not us who are telling the truth." Mu Bi said leisurely, "Didn't I even find an excuse for him?" Gao Jieyu! ”

Four days later, on the night, Gao Jun really came at night.

Mu Biwei had already prepared, and when she heard the knock of the window lattice unhurriedly, she straightened her skirt and sideburns, and after a while, the window was pried open, Gao Jun turned over, and the first sentence was: "Such a heavy medicinal smell?" ”

"I'm recuperating from a sick bed right now." Mu Biwei knew that the time was urgent, and she didn't say hello, so she told him bluntly, "Originally, I planned to take the opportunity to force Bu Shunhua to deal with Su Zijun, so as to test what is the way behind Bu Shunhua?" I didn't want Your Majesty to hear about it, so I asked a doctor to diagnose it...... I'm pregnant! ”

Gao Jun was stunned for a moment, and said first: "Are you worried about ......" Then he suddenly came to his senses and said in surprise, "Could it be...... You...... This ......"

Mu Biwei said calmly: "At that time, because there were many waiters around, I didn't dare to ask the imperial doctor to say it for a few months, and now I don't know very well, in short, I have to tell him about this matter, otherwise, if I have any clues here, don't let him know nothing and let someone calculate!" ”

"I really have to tell the second brother about this." Gao Jun's face was solemn, and he looked at her again, "But what the hell is ...... Always have to ask clearly, in this way, this time in the Feihe Guard on this side of the palace, I also have a few henchmen, you managed to ask the Taiyi month clearly, if so...... I'll have someone shut up for you! ”

He said slowly, "As for the medicine, I will also inquire about it." ”

Mu Bi was slightly stunned: "What medicine?" ”

"Nature is the medicine for abortion." Gao Jun said seriously, "If it matches the time when His Majesty summoned you, then it's okay, if it is...... So how can you stay? Now it's easy to create an accident in the palace to kill the mouth of a imperial doctor, and when you return to the palace in Yedu, can you still hide it for ten months? Even if you can hide it, the day of birth is not right! Isn't that trivial? It is not easy for you and your second brother to get to where you are today, not to mention that there are families behind you, don't be confused! ”

Mu Bi gasped slightly: "You——! ”

"Don't blame me for being ruthless!" Gao Jun said calmly, "This is not the time to be unbearable!" ”

"I've got my own way of coping!" Mu Bi gritted her teeth and said, "You don't have to worry about this matter!" And that imperial doctor, don't touch him before returning to the palace, at most bothering you to find out his details! ”

Gao Jun was not at ease: "What are you going to do?" How do I know if you're going to hurt my second brother by doing this? Do you eat dry rice in Yedutai Hospital? What's more, there is also the imperial doctor in charge, although he does not easily diagnose the pulse of the concubine, but if you know that you have a body, who knows if the queen mother will give you a grace? ”

Mu Biwei was asked by him, so she had to say angrily: "When did I say that I would go back to the palace?" ”

Gao Junyi frowned: "What? ”

"I'm going to stay in the palace until I give birth." Mu Bi narrowed her eyes slightly, "This time the Queen Mother didn't come, and many imperial doctors stayed in Yedu, so it's just right, so I simply stayed in the name of being seriously ill now, and when I was about to give birth, ...... she gritted her teeth, "At most, drink oxytocic medicine in advance!" ”

"Although I am a man and I have no children under my knees, I have heard people mention that women struggle between life and death when they give birth to children, especially the first child." Gao Jun disagreed, "Especially deliberately born prematurely, isn't Princess Xiping's biological mother an example?" Now that there is the eldest son of the emperor in the palace, you don't have to keep this heir, not to mention, I don't know if it's a man or a woman. ”

Mu Biwei said impatiently: "You go!" ”

"If you don't make up your mind, how can I leave with confidence?" Gao Jun insisted.

Mu Bi was slightly furious, stood up, and shouted: "If I refuse to ask for the medicine you sent, you plan to kill me directly to protect your second brother?!" Now it's me who is pregnant, even if someone finds out that the day is wrong, except for me, who can prove that it must have something to do with him?! ”

Seeing this, Gao Jun sighed and said, "Okay, now that you have hidden the matter, I will explain to my henchmen to pay attention to your imperial doctor here." He added, "But I'll tell the second brother the news, and if he also thinks he can't stay, then don't blame me for being rude!" ”

Mu Biwei sneered and said, "I also want to know what he will say!" ”

Gao Jun nodded: "When I get his reply, I will try to come and tell you again." ”

He walked to the window, suddenly remembered, and said, "Your brother, it's really easy to deceive - your words, but he didn't even return home after returning to Yedu, and went directly to the palace to find my Ai Ai before leaving, but he still knew how to pick no one to tell me alone, otherwise, it is not easy for me to believe!" ”

"He's innocent by nature. Zi ...... "Mu Biwei said absentmindedly.

………………………………………………………………………………

When Nie Yuansheng got the news, he had already arrived in Yan County.

Hao's and Zhan's are famous for their Yan and Zhao counties, the former Wei Ruyin King is divided here, although ambitious, but it is excellent for the people in the county, in the last years of the former Wei Dynasty, the officials of these counties are clear and clear, it is said that even the Ye at the feet of the Son of Heaven can not catch up, and therefore, these counties are dedicated to the King of Ruyin, even if the princess of Ruyin later killed her husband, and the Liang Dynasty sealed the King of Shanchang, in the end, the people's hearts are more towards the King of Shanchang rather than the officials appointed by Liang Gaozu.

Hao's and Zhan's are several families that have always been devoted to the King of Ruyin, and later because the King of Shanchang has no heirs, there are only two daughters under his knees, Liang Gaozu in order to appease the princess of Shanchang, and crowned them as the county lords, one of these two county lords married into the Hao family, and one married into the Zhan family, Gaozu was extremely courteous, and gradually made Hao, Zhan's power in several counties more and more huge, and gradually even the court officials did not pay attention to it.

Because there is Rouran in the north and Southern Qi in the south, when Gaozu first decided the northern world, he still had some plans to go south, and he didn't want to make extraneous branches, so he let the local officials Xiang Hao and Zhan Huairou govern the county through these two.

Later, because several southern expeditions were disrupted, Gaozu was getting older and older, and he slowly lost his mind, but at this time, Gaozu didn't think of dealing with these counties - because the first emperor and the king of Jiqu competed for the prince was the most important thing, and when the matter of the prince was over, Gaozu didn't live for a few years and went......

In this way, these two have dragged on to a situation where they can't get rid of it.

Originally, after the first emperor ascended the throne, he also wanted to solve this problem, but not long after the first emperor ascended the throne, he felt that the royal body was not safe, and he felt that his life was not long, and he was too late to consolidate his position for the young prince, where was there still effort to manage the two so-called big clans in a few counties?

When Ji Shen ascended the throne - the king of the last dynasty who was willing to knock on the court, he was even more lazy to care.

Now that the Hao family and the Zhan family have driven away their nephew Ji Xiao, who was both right-hand minister, they are becoming more and more arrogant, and they even take Nie Yuansheng's edict into the county seriously, neither to visit the yamen, let alone deliver the post, and even plan to wait for Nie Yuansheng to come to the door to serve softly.

Nie Yuansheng took the Feihe Guard, who was guarded by the family and rationed by Ji Shen, first galloped through the starry night, and when he arrived near Yan County, he slowed down, disguised himself from time to time, and investigated the details of the county.

Although it is not said that the ground is full of hunger because it is still full of vegetation when the grass and trees are still flourishing, the scene after the water recedes is still in sight, and the group is a little silent.

After checking privately for seven or eight days, Nie Yuansheng ordered his entourage to play the angel banner and rush to the county office.

After Ji Xiao was escorted back to Yedu, the official office was vacant and left cold, after Nie Yuansheng and his entourage arrived, the subordinate officials saw it, knocked on Sheng'an, read out the edict, and after the ceremony was over, Sima in the county came forward listlessly and replied, saying: "Tell the angel, the back house of the official office has been cleaned now, the angel is far away, presumably the journey is hard, it is better to rest for one night today, and visit the big households in the county tomorrow." ”

Nie Yuansheng snorted slightly: "This official went to visit the big households in the county?" ”

"Since the angel came from Yedu, he must know about the affairs of the king." This Sima didn't know if it was because he was an official of the imperial court, but he had been suppressed by the big families in the county for a long time, so he was disheartened, and now he knew that Nie Yuansheng was made by the Son of Heaven, and he also heard that he was a close minister of the Son of Heaven, but he was not very enthusiastic, but he just persuaded in a decent manner, "Since the angel's trip is to appease the people, if you act in these counties, if you don't go through the Hao and Zhan families, it will definitely be difficult." ”

Nie Yuansheng pondered for a moment and asked, "Is it just Hao and Zhan?" ”

That Sima didn't seem to expect him to be so easy to speak, and was stunned for a moment before he said: "There are still big clans in the county, but now they are all dependent on the Hao and Zhan families, if these two families visit, it doesn't matter if the other families don't visit, after all, angels ...... Well, if the angel has time, it doesn't hurt to go. ”

Nie Yuansheng nodded and smiled gently: "Since this is the case, then the official will rest today, and then discuss the matter of visiting tomorrow when he bathes and changes clothes." ”

Na Sima nodded: "In that case, then the official will retire and come back tomorrow to listen to the angel's dispatch." ”

After Sima left, Jiang Yan couldn't hold it back, and almost jumped up: "How can this be?" The dignified envoy of the Son of Heaven and the edict to appease the people, but he still has to look at the faces of the wang clans in the two counties!? Even if Ye is curved and high, there is no such majesty! How bold they are! ”

He also questioned Nie Yuansheng, "Isn't it enough for Nie Sheren to visit Hao and Zhan, but even other big families have to visit them one by one?" Sheren is the grandson of Linyi County Gong, a close minister of the Son of Heaven and the first person praised by Emperor Gaozu as the first person under his subordinates, how can these mountain and village men insult him? ! ”

Nie Yuansheng smiled and said, "If this can make things solve faster, why not?" As for the close ministers of the Son of Heaven, the Zhongshu Sheren is only six grades, how can they be compared with the four grades of Taishou? ”

"You!" Jiang Yao and Ji Jianran were ordered to assist the government, cooperated with each other tacitly, and the children of the two families also had a good relationship, after Ji Xiao was escorted back to Ye to ask for the guilt, not only the Ji family was aggrieved for him, but many people in the Jiang family also looked at the Hao family and the Zhan family very unpleasantly, this time Nie Yuansheng personally asked Ji Shen for Jiang Yan, although Jiang Ruo was also worried that this would give Gao Jun a chance, but he also thought that this was an opportunity to help Ji Xiao reduce his guilt or even get rid of his guilt, so along the way, Jiang Yan has been thinking about how to provoke Nie Yuansheng's dissatisfaction with Hao and Zhan.

Originally, when he entered Yan County, he saw that no one had come to greet the two families, Jiang Yan was still happy in his heart, and Sima said something just now, Jiang Yan thought that according to Nie Yuansheng's young and vigorous identity, and he had been a close minister of the Son of Heaven for a long time, he would definitely not be able to hold back, let alone visit the door, it would be good not to immediately go to the table to impeach the two families, I didn't want Nie Yuansheng's temper to be surprisingly better, and he didn't care about his instigation, and he couldn't help but be angry.

At this moment, a person suddenly came in from outside and said: "Nie Sheren, someone from outside is chasing from Yedu, saying that he is a servant of the She's family, saying that a letter from his family has been delivered." ”

Nie Yuansheng's eyes flashed and said, "Bring it in." ”

Seeing that the servant who delivered the letter was indeed one of the servants left by Nie Jiezhi to the big house, Nie Yuansheng knew in his heart that this person was the messenger he told Gao Jun to send if there was something urgent before leaving.

In the back house, in the main room that was specially cleaned out and replaced with new bedding to welcome the angel, Nie Yuansheng read the letter at a glance, his face suddenly changed, he closed his eyes and thought for a moment, called a guard, and whispered a few words......
