Chapter 183: Changes in the Capital
Walking half-asleep and half-awake like this, a careless stepped on a small stone covered with moss, and Jiang Tingliu planted it on Xiao Yun's back with a sigh.
Xiao Yun found that the girl behind her was already looking like she couldn't open her eyes, and she suddenly felt funny and helpless.
Half-squatting down, Xiao Yun turned his head and said, "Come up, I'll carry you." ”
Jiang Tingliu struggled for a while, and found that the sleepiness was surging and uncontrollable, so he finally raised the white flag and surrendered, and obediently jumped onto Xiao Yun's back.
Carrying the person steady, Xiao Yun hadn't taken ten steps yet, and the breathing sound from his shoulder had stabilized.
Although he also thinks that the girl he loves is quite cute, he still has a faint worry in his heart.
It's just that Xiao Yun couldn't tell what he was worried about for a while, and after thinking for a long time to no avail, he had to hold Tuojiang Tingliu's body and walk more and more steadily step by step.
Now they can't go back to the capital, and after arriving at the open place, Xiao Yun identified the direction and turned southwest towards Yuyu.
When Jiang Tingliu was asleep, there was a mess in the capital, first Xiao Yue and Su Nianqing made a decisive move, and before the matter started, let Qingping pretend to be nothing and go back to Jiang's house.
found a reason to bring Qingguo and Fusheng out, and then Xiao Yue came to the door and visited Wang on the grounds of "checking the apprentice's skills", and stuffed the note into Wang's hand when he pretended to diagnose the pulse.
When they were busy, the court that had been quiet for several days finally moved, Tan Chengqi was announced into the palace by a holy decree, and soon after the palace gate opened, the forbidden army in red armor rushed out, and the sound of horses' hooves resounded throughout the capital.
The forbidden army had a clear goal, and directly surrounded the Tan family without revealing a drop of water, which made the atmosphere in the city tense suddenly.
Even those ministers don't know what the saint is planning now, is this going to tear his face directly with the Tan family?
But the Tan family holds the power of the army, half of the generals of the army guarding the northwest border are confidants of the Tan family, and several elite troops are trained by Tan Chengqi.
The next development of events deeply made the people who watched deeply understand what it means to be "unpredictable".
It was only a quarter of an hour before the Tan family was surrounded, and another team of forbidden troops surrounded the Huo family.
Who doesn't know that Huo Sitong is the emperor's henchman, and the Huo family is also a benchmark deliberately held up by the royal family to fight against the old family, why is it suddenly going to be killed?!
Not to mention the ministers now, even the people who eat melons are dumbfounded, and they just want to shout "Don't guess what the emperor thinks".
Who would have thought that this was not over, with the Tan and Huo families as the prelude, one team after another of the forbidden army was dispatched, and soon the Guo, Ping, and Bai families were also tightly surrounded.
Well, all the old and new families are under house arrest, and the direction of this wind is becoming more and more incomprehensible.
But at least one message was sent: the emperor was in a very bad mood.
How long will it take to be a man without his tail between his legs at this time? The people of the capital, who were originally happy because of the imminent festival, spontaneously and consciously fell silent, and for a while there was a lot of noise in the capital, and even the dogs in the homes did not dare to bark loudly.
Xiao Yue entered the palace at this time, and met the young son of heaven in the palace.
Even if it is a miracle doctor who moves the world, he knelt respectfully when he saw the Son of Heaven, although the words "Doctor Xiao is exempt" immediately came from above, but Xiao Yue still bowed with a big salute, and then got up with the support of the Son of Heaven's close attendants.
Emperor Mingxi gave a seat but did not speak, this silence, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became extremely heavy, and the cold sweat of the surrounding eunuchs and palace maids was about to drip down, but Xiao Yue looked at his nose and nose, as if he did not feel the tranquility before the storm.
After a while, Emperor Ming Xi suppressed his anger and asked, "Why did Divine Doctor Xiao enter the palace today?" ”
Xiao Yue said respectfully: "The grass people are here to resign today. ”
Emperor Ming Xi was surprised: "Leave so soon?" ”
Xiao Yue smiled: "Humble Jing and I originally planned to spend the rest of our lives in seclusion, and this time we went out of the valley just for the marriage of our apprentices, but now that the matter is over, we naturally want to go back." ”
He hammered his arm, and sighed with a look of "old age and weak strength": "I am used to the life of idle clouds and wild cranes in the valley, and I really feel tired these days." ”
Emperor Ming Xi seemed to be in a better mood, and said with a soft smile: "If it weren't for your extraordinary medical skills, it would be rare to go back to the capital, how could the families be so excited." ”
Xiao Yue also smiled: "I'm old, and I will be a young man's world in the future." ”
Emperor Ming Xi didn't seem to ask often: "Your apprentice, how much skill have you learned?" ”
Xiao Yue was slightly silent and replied: "It's not that the grass people are boasting, my apprentice is talented, and he has learned all my skills." ”
Emperor Mingxi became interested: "Oh? If so, I'm going to see it. ”
Xiao Yue was not surprised, and only said earnestly: "It is appropriate to share worries for Your Majesty, but the disciples of the grass people grew up in Yueqing Valley, and their hearts are too simple, so I implore Your Majesty to protect one or two." ”
Emperor Mingxi smiled: "Your master is quite worried. ”
Xiao Yue smiled softly: "The grass people are destined to have no children in this life, this apprentice is almost like his own child, how can parents not worry." ”
Emperor Mingxi was silent suddenly, and then sneered: "But some parents are just too worried......"
Xiao Yue didn't dare to answer, and the Son of Heaven, who was surging up again with anger, said to himself: "Look at this group of so-called courtiers, all of them should be damned!" ”
There was a loud bang, and the people in the palace knelt together, and the eunuchs and palace maids shouted in unison, "Your Majesty is angry."
Emperor Ming Xi overturned the incense burner on the table, watching the delicate purple gold copper furnace clatter down the steps, and the incense ash sprinkled on the expensive carpet, the angry Son of Heaven slightly controlled his emotions.
Xiao Yue also knelt on the ground, and this was the second time he was invited to get up, and he heard Emperor Mingxi say: "You can go, your apprentice must come to help me." ”
The sharp gaze pierced Xiao Yue's body from a height, and Emperor Ming Xi said word by word: "Help me like you." ”
Xiao Yue smiled bitterly, although such a situation had been expected, it was still extremely stressful for him to be really mentioned by the Son of Heaven.
He bowed his head deeply and replied, "Do as you wish." ”
The sense of oppression of the superior was reduced a little, and Xiao Yue took the opportunity to say: "The grass people are brave, I want to ask Your Majesty for a will." ”
Emperor Mingxi's expression was a little lighter, and he asked, "What will?" ”
Xiao Yuefu knelt down again: "This apprentice of the grass people is an infatuated species, and he has a deep affection for the third lady of the Jiang family......
Emperor Mingxi sighed, and asked in a low voice with joy and anger: "Do you want me to give marriage?" ”
Xiao Yue said yes.
Emperor Ming Xi muttered: "But this Jiang family is not a noble family, and your apprentice has no official position, so this marriage seems inappropriate." ”
Xiao Yue bowed his head and was silent, knowing that the Son of Heaven must have guessed what he meant.
Sure enough, in the next second, the Son of Heaven had already come to a conclusion: "It's better for me to give your apprentice an official position first, and this marriage will be justified." ”
