Chapter 228: Zheng Boke Section
He picked up his article and read it through several times, and the more he read it, the more he felt that this was the most satisfying one of his theories in the past few months. This joy made him happy for a while, but when this joy passed, he felt that his heart had become empty again.
When he has something at hand, he can still stuff this whole heart into the things to do, but as soon as the things are done, he has to face the reality of a little sadness again, and now he tastes the taste of missing his sweetheart for the first time, only to know that the sweetness of seeing his beloved is actually to be exchanged for very chagrin and bitterness.
But he didn't want to run away at all, he just wanted to run straight towards this bitterness. In the past, he never imagined that one day he would suddenly fall in love with a woman like this, but now that he has realized this love for Bai Ling, he feels that he has always liked her.
This personal relationship, on weekdays, may be able to discuss with Zeng Jiuyan, but in view of Zeng Jiuyan's also showing some appreciation for Bai Ling, a certain instinctive vigilance rose in his heart, and he was only worried that maybe once he said that Bai Ling was good, he would make other people see Bai Ling's goodness and want to compete with him.
He was never willing to give up his friends for the sake of his children's private affairs, and when he thought of having to choose between his best friend for many years and his beloved girl in the future, Chen Yicong only felt a pang in his heart.
But can he give up his sweetheart?
No! That must not!
He sighed again in the study alone, lamenting how difficult life is.
Night.
Bai Ling still gave a lecture in the courtyard for about half an hour like yesterday, during which she took a break for a cup of tea, and she directly approved the homework handed in by the palace people yesterday.
As usual, Qu sat on the couch in the dormitory, quietly reading a book. Zheng Shu came back almost in the unitary time, her movements have always been very fast, just when Bai Ling went to Donglin Temple, she went out of the palace alone and went back to Qu Mansion, and personally returned the things that were born in the palace in the past few days to the old lady and the eldest master.
The concubine sent Bai Ling to Donglin Temple on the front foot, and the Donglin Temple on the back foot was burned, and several monks said that it was a coincidence, and they didn't believe it if they were fools. The old lady brought back a few ideas and asked Zheng Shu to implement them in the palace, and Qu Shi barely listened with some energy, but was obviously not interested.
"By the way, the old lady also asked, do you need her to go to the palace the day after tomorrow and personally dismantle this matter with her mother." Zheng Shu looked at the concubine with a somewhat consoling tone.
The concubine still looked at the book in her hand, but she didn't turn the pages again.
After a long time, she frowned slightly, "Don't come." ”
Zheng Shu was stunned, "But"
"The harem is not a place where mothers should come often," the concubine's voice was still a little weak, "They keep running to me, but they are easy to cause gossip." ”
"I understand, the slave is afraid, in case the old lady doesn't listen to the persuasion, she still comes"
Qu Shi looked at Zheng Shu, and suddenly realized that this was indeed a problem, she thought for a while, and finally said in an uncertain tone, "Then let's close the palace door?" ”
Bao Yuan snorted and laughed, Zheng Shu was startled at first, and when she saw that Qu and Bao Yuan had smiles on their faces, she couldn't help but ask, "Niang Niang is joking, right?" ”
"No." Qu Shi smiled and shook his head, "Granny Shu will just reply like this." Mother is also old, don't keep running to me, I will inform her if there is something like today. ”
This night, Bao Yuan and Zheng Shu were on duty again. Bao Yuan guards the first half of the night, and Zheng Shu guards the second half of the night.
That's basically how this time is arranged. Because Qu Shi generally can't sleep in the first half of the night, even if he falls asleep, it is easy to wake up, and Bao Yuan talks a lot, and he can talk with him to relieve boredom, and in the second half of the night, Qu Shi sleeps, and often has nightmares, easy to kick the quilt and get cold, Zheng Shu is careful and willing to endure, and he is not at ease to hand over this work that is repeated over and over again and easy to make mistakes to others.
When Bao Yuan returned to the east side hall from the main hall yawning, the moon had sunk to the west. She pushed open the door, but saw that Bai Ling hadn't slept yet, not only hadn't he slept, but was still writing at his desk.
"You're still awake!" Bao Yuan exclaimed.
Bai Ling didn't raise his head, "Sister Baoyuan is back." ”
Bao Yuan quickly closed the door, "Niang Niang said that you ran on Donglin Temple for a long time today, and you have to give a lecture at night, you must be tired, so I let you rest for a night, but you actually stayed up until now?" ”
Bai Ling put down his pen and looked over with some concern, "Is something wrong?" ”
"Something is wrong!" Bao Yuanyuan deliberately exaggerated the gesture, "Do you want to know?" ”
Originally, the news that Zheng Shu was going to tell in person this day was brought by Bao Yuan this night first, and since the concubine planned to take the prince back to take care of her soon, it was necessary to kill Lin Jieyu and her henchmen in the palace as soon as possible.
Two suggestions brought by the Qu family outside the palace.
First, the three of Qinglian, Chulan and Rouge were transferred to the side of the concubine to serve and listen to Bai Ling's judgment, and it seemed that the suspicion of Rouge was greater, so she could be allowed to take on some additional palace affairs.
Second, make a game, and then wait and see what happens.
"Mother, all agreed?" Bai Ling asked.
"No refusal anyway." Bao Yuan sighed with emotion, "You say this is not strange, you have to recruit suspicious people to your side, and then make a game?" That's just a fox in the Teaching Workshop Division, who has no power and power, and everyone seems to be afraid of her? Why? ”
Bai Ling didn't speak, just scratched his forehead with the pen in his hand, of course, it was because of Emperor Jianxi's different preference for Lin Jieyu.
There are some things that she can't explain to Bao Yuan, but she does think it's understandable, for example, why Lin Jieyu has not been attacked on a large scale since she entered the palace, but everyone seems to have a lot of tolerance for her.
In order to get rid of his brother Gongshu Duan, Zheng Zhuanggong deliberately connived at him to gain an inch, and when Gongshu Duan was insatiable and raised troops to rebel, he sent troops to exterminate his team in Yanyi in one fell swoop. In the Spring and Autumn Period, it was written that this is the allusion of "Zheng Boke Duan Yuyan" that the so-called self-destruction will be killed if he does too much injustice comes from here.
Now, Lin Jieyu is from the Teaching Workshop Division, and she has won the favor tirelessly, and everyone deliberately connived at Lin Jieyu's misconduct in the palace, and she really lived up to expectations, and every step was vicious and ruthless.
Bai Ling suddenly became curious, when she really saw the eyes and ears that Lin Jieyu had planted in the Chengqian Palace, did the old lady also have the mood of waiting for Gongshu Duan to rebel back then?
Give the other party what they want little by little, use themselves as bait, and only wait for the other party to stretch out the hand that crosses the bottom line, and once the other party makes a move, he will immediately crusade on the premise of putting him to death.
"Tomorrow Granny Shu will come to talk to you about these things," Bao Yuan said with a yawn, "Anyway, there is no need for you to do anything now, we will just wait for Granny Shu's arrangement." ”。
