Chapter 821: Chen Zumo's New Courtyard

His son actually colluded with outsiders to privately mine iron sand for smelting!

A few days ago, the eldest son designed to frame the fourth son, and connived at his guards to use private acts against Tian Shouyi, which were within the tolerable range of Emperor Jianlong, but Chai Yanchang and Yuan Tiancheng colluded to bury the Qing king and smuggle iron sand in iron mines, and Emperor Jianlong absolutely couldn't bear it. Chai Yanchang was sentenced to be a monarch by doing this, and he was plotting rebellion!

What iniquity has he created, how can he raise such a rebellious son! Emperor Jianlong's hand holding the fold was trembling with anger, his brain was buzzing, Dexi didn't dare to speak, and silently knelt aside and waited for Emperor Jianlong's order. This kind of thing has no part for him to talk about at all.

Emperor Jianlong trembled for a long time, and finally made up his mind, "Xuan Sheng'er." ”

Sure enough, it's King Sheng again! Today is different from the past, a few years ago, there was a major event in the saint, and the first one to find was either Ning Taifu or Zuo Xiang, but now it was replaced by King Sheng, Dexi responded, and got up to pass the decree.

The third master entered Yishou Palace and stayed for more than an hour, which was the longest time the third master stayed in Yishou Palace after the last time the father and son dined in Yishou Palace. It must be known that Emperor Jianlong is suspicious and never refuses to let people stay in his palace longer, only Zuo Xiang can stay in the palace for so long before, and now he has added King Sheng.

When the third master came out, the guards looked at him differently. This difference can make people flutter and not step on the ground, but the third master stepped on every step solidly, walked very steadily, he held the holy decree, and walked out step by step.

As soon as he came out of the palace gate of Yishou Palace, the third master saw the eldest prince's mother, Concubine De, kneeling on the cold stone slab outside the palace. When Concubine De saw the third prince come out with the holy decree in her hand, her bloodless lips began to tremble, and she wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask. King Sheng bowed slightly towards her, and after a few steps forward, he was stopped by An Shun, the great eunuch of Cining Palace.

Seeing that An Shun bent down and saluted but did not speak, the third master knew that this was the emperor's grandmother who also got the news, and was worried. He stopped and said gently, "Father-in-law, my father has been busy with the government and hasn't eaten yet, I don't know if the emperor's grandmother can have lunch?" ”

After listening to the words of the third prince, Concubine De's tightly held hand loosened a little, at least her son's life was saved. An Shun also agreed, and bent his waist deeper, "The villain is following the words of the Queen Mother, and I came here to invite the saint to go to Cining Palace for dinner." ”

Seeing that King Sheng had been to Yishou Palace for a long time, and had come back with the holy decree in his own hands, the right minister immediately stood up, "Lord Wang, this is?" ”

There was no need for the third master to explain to him what the holy will was, he just said, "Xiao Wang went out for a trip, and the excerpts in the pavilion asked Lord Cheng and Lord Lu to bother more." ”

Lu Zhengqi immediately stood up and saluted, "Yes." ”

Zhuang Likun immediately asked, "Can the prince go alone, or will the old man go with you?" ”

"Don't dare to bother the Guogong, Xiao Wang can go alone."

Seeing the third master turn around, he walked out. The right phase turned three steps into two steps to catch up, "The prince stays, but the prince wants to go to Dali Temple?" If...... The prince, although the nephew and the dog are stubborn, their nature is not bad, please ...... Say a few kind words for them before the Holy One. ”

Nephews and dogs? It seems that he was really said by that idiot, if something really happened, Cheng Wujie must have saved his wife and nephew first, not his concubine. The third master didn't look back, "Xiao Wang doesn't go to Dali Temple." ”

Don't go to Dali Temple? The right minister was stunned before he reacted, and he was glad and then lifted his heart. The only person who can let King Sheng personally go to pass the decree is only Zongzheng Temple in addition to Dali Temple.

"Could it be Zongzheng Temple?" Zhuang Likun also figured it out, jumped up and asked hurriedly, "Li Xiang, what is written in the fold handed over by the second prince?" ”

How does he know! When the right minister returned to the cabinet with a calm step, he had already calmed down. Panic is a big taboo, it is about his children and nephews, if he can't hold his breath and makes a mistake, then it is not only his children and nephews who will die, but the Cheng family will also suffer. Looking at the capital and the eldest prince, he has a close relationship with Prince He, and it is inevitable that he will look cold at this time if he does nothing. The right minister decided to send a letter to Prince He as soon as possible, so that King He would suffer with him, no, prepare early.

However, perhaps the treacherous and cunning Chai Zili has already been prepared. His behavior in the past six months or so is very different from before, it seems that he has received guidance from a master, although he has no great merit, he is not wrong, and he is quite stable.

When the news reached King He's mansion, King He, who was discussing with Chen Zumo in the study, was so shocked that he couldn't keep his mouth shut. Chen Zumo rejoiced, "Fortunately, my uncle was prepared, otherwise it would have been too late to regret it." The eldest prince invited you to the palace last time, but fortunately you didn't go. ”

"It's thanks to you." Since the eldest prince was demoted to the prince of the county last year, Chen Zumo analyzed the situation to King He and let him understand that the great prince was gone. According to Chen Zumo's words, King He gradually distanced himself from the eldest prince and surrendered to the second prince, and now it seems that this move is really right. King He said in a low voice, "Zu Mo, what do you think should happen now?" ”

"Avoid. The eldest prince is imprisoned, the princess of Changjun must walk around to find someone to intercede for the eldest prince, if the princess comes to the door, you are also in a dilemma, it is better to go out of the house for a while, and the affairs of the yamen can also be delayed for a few days. "Chen Zumo gave advice to King He

King He frowned, "Now that the four gates of the capital are closed, where can this king go!" ”

Chen Zumo said with a smile, "There is always a place to go, uncle, think about where you go has nothing to do with the government and politics, and it will not cause criticism?" ”

"Genmyokan and Eifukuji!" King He's eyes lit up, "This king will go and arrange it." ”

King He went to the inner house, and Chen Zumo also planned to go back to his small courtyard to write a book. He didn't know that he had walked a few steps, and the housekeeper of the palace chased after him, "Uncle, the prince said that the little cotton girl needs a wider yard to walk, so he will give you and the third girl the two-entry courtyard on Dongqiao Street, and the villain will let Zheng Chong take you to see, if there is anything missing, you will tell Zheng Chong and let him buy it for you." ”

Zheng Chong is the husband of Chai Yuyuan's martial maid Nuanshu, and he is also a decent steward in King He's Mansion, so it is also a very shameful thing to let Zheng Chong run errands for him, Chen Zumo knew that this was King He's own reward, and he showed a smug look on his face.

Zheng Chong took Chen Zumo to Dongqiao Street, and introduced the benefits of this place to him as he walked. Although the people living on Dongqiao Street are not high-ranking officials, they are also decent people in Beijing. It's better than the backyard of the palace where Chen Zumo lives now, but it's not a little better. After Chen Zumo turned around a long time, he was extremely satisfied with the clean and bright two-entry courtyard on Dongqiao Street, so he rushed home with the key in his arms. He now has a wife, a concubine and a daughter, plus cooks, housekeepers, maids, nurses, maids and others, all of whom are crowded in the current courtyard.

Back at home, Chen Zumo swept around and found that he could see clearly what everyone was doing. His wife was playing leaf cards in the main house with the little concubine Chunni and the warm tree who came back to visit the door, the nurse helped Xiaomian to walk in the courtyard, the little maid Tinglan was washing clothes, and there was also the sound of washing in the kitchen, which was really crowded.

Chen Zumo walked into the courtyard quickly, and before he could tell Chai Yuyuan the good news, Chai Yuyuan threw down the leaf card and asked, "Master, can you find out the news of Brother Zheng?" ”

Chen Zumo's face sank, did his daughter-in-law pay too much attention to Zheng Duchu's affairs, "Zheng Duchu's affairs have his own right minister to work for him, and my uncle is going to Yongfu Temple to copy scriptures for the concubine, so he has no time to ask about this matter." ”

Chai Yuyuan only went to King He's Mansion yesterday to greet her grandmother Concubine Jing, knowing that she was fine, and now King He must be praying for something else. So, Chai Yuyuan grabbed Chen Zumo's arm and dragged him inside, and asked in a low voice, "Master, is there something wrong?" ”
