Chapter 625: Take a Risk
"What?" When the Li family heard this, they were anxious, and they didn't care about quarreling with Huang Fuyue, so they pulled An Mingchen's sleeve and asked the ins and outs, "Hasn't the emperor always valued you?" Didn't you say yesterday that these are rumors, and you can't do it, the emperor is smart and wise, and he won't blame you for this? It's only been less than a day, why did the emperor dismiss your official. Boss, you're the backbone of your mother. If something happens to you, what will you do with your mother? ”
Li began to cry as he spoke. An Mingchen was a little irritable, and dragged the Li family to the West Courtyard, Huang Fuyue thought it was a rumor, and it was just to get over his mouth, but he didn't really want to see An Mingchen unlucky. An Mingchen is nominally the son-in-law of the Huangfu family, and if he loses power, he will not benefit the Huangfu family at all. Originally, he thought it was a rumor, but now ......
"Miss, shall we still go out?" The maid reminded Huangfu Yue to come back to her senses, "Let's go." ”
In the palace, the emperor is not in a very good mood today, he has already punished several ministers in one morning, after hearing that An Mingchen was dismissed, Concubine He was very happy, and personally went to the imperial dining room to make the emperor's favorite pastries, and came to the imperial study, and her father-in-law stopped her outside, "Niangniang, the emperor doesn't see anyone now, you better go back." ”
"Even if the emperor doesn't see everyone, he won't see the concubine, you go inside and tell it, and say that the concubine personally made the emperor's favorite osmanthus cake."
The father-in-law saw that Concubine He didn't listen, and he didn't dare to offend him, so he had no choice but to go in and tell him, and after a while, the father-in-law walked over with his head down, and Concubine He smiled proudly, "How about it, the emperor agreed." I said Father-in-law An, you have been serving in front of the emperor for so long, why can't you see through the emperor's thoughts, the emperor likes this concubine, and the whole harem knows that you dare to block the way of this concubine......"
Concubine He muttered, and Gonggong An interrupted him, "Concubine He, the emperor said, you will be grounded in the Hehuan Hall for the past few days, and you are not allowed to enter and leave without the emperor's order." After speaking, he turned his head to the side and said, "Come on, personally send Concubine He back to the palace." ”
"What do you say? Grounded, why did the emperor want to grounded the concubine for no reason. It must be that you reversed black and white and deliberately said bad things about the concubine, Gonggong An, the concubine originally thought you were a smart person, but now it seems that you are not honest at all, do you think that if you do this, the concubine will never be able to turn over again? Concubine Ben tells you that Concubine Ben will not let you succeed. ”
Concubine He angrily took the palace maid and eunuch back to the Hehuan Palace, and Grandpa An's expression was indifferent, as if everything just now had nothing to do with him.
After dinner, the emperor went to Yonghe Palace. An Mingchen was dismissed from his post and the news was spreading, Lan Tingyu naturally got the news, she originally wanted to ask the emperor to intercede, but An Mingchen sent the news in, asking him to wait and see what happened, don't act rashly, she was originally unwilling, and halfway through hearing that the emperor had grounded Concubine He to know the seriousness of the matter.
Lan Tingyu sat at the table thinking about how to help An Mingchen, when the voice of Father-in-law An came from outside, and then the palace maid hurriedly ran in, "Master, the emperor is here." "It's so late, why did the emperor come over.
Lan Tingyu thought about the emperor's intention to come over, and helped the maid to go out. When he was about to walk to the door, the emperor walked in with Gonggong An, "The emperor's ......" Lan Tingyu wanted to salute, and the emperor directly helped him up. "Concubine, please get up."
"The emperor is busy with official business, how can I have time to come over today" The next person went to serve tea, and Lan Tingyu helped the emperor to make it soft. The emperor glanced at Lan Tingyu, and then looked at the familiar palace, but in just a few years, many things in the harem have become different.
"Today, I reprimanded Lord An on the top of the main hall and asked him to go home and rest, what do you think about this matter?" The emperor suddenly mentioned this matter, Lan Tingyu didn't understand the emperor's intentions, and looked to the side in confusion, "Your Majesty...... Why are you talking about this to your concubine? The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, the emperor and Lord An are because the opinions of the court and politics are to the left, the emperor punishes Lord An is the right thing, and the concubine is a person in the harem, who does not understand the government and does not understand the government, let alone interfere in the government ......"
In and out of the words, I don't want to get involved in this matter.
The emperor originally thought that Lan Tingyu would definitely follow her words to speak for An Mingchen, but who knew that he would be uncharacteristic and directly threw his question back. The emperor stared at Lan Tingyu for a while, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.
"I was negligent, what was Concubine Ai doing just now?" The emperor took the book next to him and looked at it twice, "Talking about the book?" I remember that Mrs. Ann also likes to read books, and you like to read this too. I remember that you used to dislike these things the most, and they didn't feel real enough. It's better to read some travelogues to be real. ”
"Yes, the concubine did think so at the beginning, but since Sister Wen and Sister Xue both left the concubine, the concubine has changed, sometimes looking at the things they like, they feel as if they are right in front of them, they have nothing to do, they also want to see what they like, they want to find fun in it, and they can't leave it over time."
"Oh, has the concubine found the fun?" The emperor turned two pages and was not interested, he had read a lot of twists and turns today, and now he had a headache when he saw the text, took a teacup and took a sip of tea, waiting for Lan Tingyu's answer.
"Some of the words are very interesting, such as this, it talks about groundbreaking things, and there is one thing that the emperor may not know." Lan Tingyu picked up the book and shook it towards the emperor, "This book was written by Sister Xue, and it will be a story of a monkey making trouble in the Heavenly Palace, and then following a monk to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, which is very interesting." If the emperor likes it, he can also take a look. ”
"How do monkeys and monks learn from the scriptures?" The emperor was interested, but she didn't want to read, so she lured Lan Tingyu to talk a little bit, and after an hour, the emperor finally came back to his senses, "This book is really different, Mrs. An is really talented, not an ordinary woman." The emperor remembered yesterday's rumors, and then thought about her selfishness, and felt a little guilty in his heart.
The reason why he was angry was because he felt that An Mingchen didn't believe him, and he mentioned it in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, she felt that An Mingchen was slapping him in the face, he was his most trusted courtier, after the accident, he was not the first to stand up and clarify for her, but followed those people to coax and want to see her laugh. It just doesn't make sense. But later, he thought about it for a long time, and finally understood An Mingchen's intentions, but she was the emperor, even if he was wrong, his pride would not allow him to apologize to a courtier.
"Sister Xue is indeed different, it's a pity that his life is so unknown and he died in vain, and yesterday's rumors and concubines also heard about it." Lan Tingyu put down the book and stood up, "Your Majesty, the concubine has a reluctant request, the emperor, as the king of a country, has been slandered and slandered like this, the concubine has been wronged for the emperor, and also for Sister Xue, please look at the emperor for Sister Xue's sake, the emperor must thoroughly investigate the rumors and give Sister Xue justice." ”
The emperor looked at Lan Tingyu and squinted his eyes and asked coldly, "This morning, Lord An proposed in front of the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty to let me strictly investigate this matter, I not only rejected it, but also severely punished Lord An, in less than a day, you came to me again to plead, aren't you afraid that I will punish you?" ”
Lan Tingyu couldn't see the emperor's thoughts, but this matter was carefully thought out by her, even if the emperor was angry, she didn't regret it, "The concubine is afraid of the emperor's punishment, but the concubine is even more afraid that the emperor and Sister Xue will be slandered and misunderstood." Please ask the emperor to seek justice for yourself and Sister Xue. ”
Lan Tingyu knelt on the ground, as if the emperor didn't speak, she wouldn't get up. Time faded a little, and the emperor's face gradually improved, "Okay, let's get up first." I will definitely investigate this matter, but how to investigate it, who I want to investigate, I will decide. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lan Tingyu thanked her, the emperor got up and left, Mama quickly stepped forward to help Lan Tingyu up, helped her to the table in distress, and then squatted down to help her rub her legs. Lan Tingyu hurriedly stopped, "Mama, you are old, don't do such things in the future." Hurry up and let Cuiyun help me. Mama thanked her and then stood aside, "Master, it's not the old slave nagging, you were so reckless just now, Lord An clearly reminded the master not to say this, how can you ......"
"Mama, don't be angry, I also mentioned it after seeing that the emperor was not so angry, Sister Xue is gone, Lord An and her husband and wife have a deep relationship, plus Ping An only has such a relative, if he has any three long and two short, what should Ping An do, for Sister Xue, I will help her no matter what the price is."
"The master has a good heart, but now it is not what it used to be, the master has this heart, and the emperor will inevitably listen to the master's words. Today is also the master's good luck, if the emperor is in a bad mood...... "Mama thought of the one in the Hehuan Palace, "The favor of the heavenly family is the most uncountable, the master must always stay sober, and never take a wrong step." "The Lan family can't count on it, and the master can only rely on himself in the harem. But the master is kind, and she will repay him ten times and a hundred times if he is good, and she is really worried that one day he will delay herself.
"I took note of Mama's worries. Don't worry, you've been watching me, and you'll remind me even if I forget. Lan Tingyu coquettishly smiled at Mama, Mama smiled dotingly, and then thought of something, and became depressed again, "Master, the old slave is old, and I don't know how many years I can accompany you, you have to learn to protect yourself, otherwise the old slave will not rest assured even if he goes." ”、
Over the years, Mama has regarded Lan Tingyu as her own daughter, she knows that her master doesn't like Huang En, she is not motivated, and she just wants to live comfortably. But the harem battle is fierce, there is no imperial favor, can only be bullied, fortunately, the master climbed to the An family, stained with Mrs. An's light, the emperor can also take care of the master for Mrs. An's sake, and therefore the master was not bullied by other palaces. It's just that Concubine He is getting more and more favored, and the emperor's mind is becoming more and more unpredictable, and Mama is starting to worry.
"Mama, don't talk nonsense, if you have me by your side and God to protect you, you will definitely live a hundred years old."
