Chapter 80: Zheng Guifei is punished again
The letter said that Mrs. Li should keep her mouth shut, and then find an opportunity to leave Jiangnan, otherwise, she would kill people and kill her.
An Mingchen thought about it for a long time, at the moment he was busy with the matter of the dam and had no time to estimate the three of Mrs. Li, thinking about it, for their safety, An Mingchen decided to send them out of the post house temporarily, but his house was full of eyeliner, and he had to do a full set of plays, otherwise his previous efforts would be in vain.
So on the second day, An Mingchen personally took Mrs. Li and the three out of the city, and Lord Liu was very happy when he heard the news, thinking that even if An Mingchen was arrogant, there was nothing he was afraid of, hmph, since Mrs. Li and the three had already left the station, his opportunity would come.
After sending off Mrs. Li's mother and son, An Mingchen went back to the city directly, went back to the post house directly after entering the city, and quietly left through the back door when he got home, hiding his whereabouts to chase Mrs. Li and the three, and the killer sent by Lord Liu was already on the way, and met Mrs. Li and her group ten kilometers outside the city, Mrs. Li sat in the carriage, originally very scared, but thinking of An Mingchen's advice, thinking of his two children, he was not so afraid.
Suddenly the carriage began to sway, Mrs. Li saw that the situation was not right, opened the curtain and looked out the window, Dabao sat beside him, although he was young but after this period of experience and maturity, seeing his mother like this, he knew that things were not simple, and took Mrs. Li's hand to comfort him silently. Mrs. Li was originally quite scared, but she turned her head and glanced at Dabao, and suddenly she was not so afraid.
Outside the window, more than a dozen black-clothed people fell from the sky, and then surrounded the carriage, the coachman seemed to be dead, the carriage lost its balance, and was crashing everywhere at this time, Mrs. Li was so frightened that she hugged the two children, and when she was at a loss, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded outside the window, and soon there was a sound of fighting outside, and then the carriage stopped, but Mrs. Li was so scared that she didn't dare to look out at all.
"Mrs. Li, don't worry, you are safe." A familiar voice came, and Mrs. Li's uneasy heart calmed down a little, "Mrs. Li, you take care of the two children, and I will take you to a place here." ”
The carriage ran out again. An hour later, the carriage stopped at a small foot, and several people got out of the carriage, only to see a thatched house not far away, and Mrs. Li turned her head to look at him suspiciously.
"Mrs. Li, the people who chased and killed your mother and son just now have been solved by the official's people, but the official has been busy with official business recently, and he really doesn't have time to help you find evidence, but for your safety, the official can't bring you back, so after thinking about it, the official ordered someone to find this place, this place is extremely hidden, you don't have to worry, the official will also leave someone to protect you, it only takes ten days, the official will come to pick you up."
"My lord, are you busy building the dam?" Although Dabao doesn't go out often, he has heard from the people in the house that the adults haven't even had time to sleep recently because of the dam.
Mrs. Li had also heard of it, and nodded a little apologetically, "Thank you, sir, we caused you trouble." ”
"You're welcome, the official promised you to help you find out the real culprit, which is what the official should do. Okay, it's not early, you hurry in and pack up, the official is going to leave first, if Lord Liu finds out that the official is not in the house, he will be suspicious. ”
An Mingchen left behind to protect their mother and son and led people back to the city in a hurry, things outside the city, Lord Liu has already received the news, hearing the master said that the assassination failed, none of the people they sent came back, and the angry Lord Liu opened his mouth and scolded, "An Mingchen, it must be An Mingchen, he is really the nemesis of the official, and he is against the official everywhere, and there will be no one else in this matter except her." ”
"My lord, if it's really Lord An as you say, then what should we do next? If Lord An hides their mother and son, it will be difficult for us to find someone. Master reminded. Lord Liu snorted coldly, "Don't forget whose territory is here, the Tibetan in the official's territory is still a little tender." ”
Lord Liu sent someone out to look for it that day, not only Lord Liu left a spy in the post house, An Mingchen also put a spy in Liu's mansion, Lord Liu's every move is now under An Mingchen's surveillance, hearing the news, An Mingchen only said a word and continued to stare and went to the dam.
The construction of the dam is going very well, and if nothing else, it will be completed in three or five days, and the excerpt for the construction of the dam has been sent out a few days ago, and the day should be almost to the palace now.
In the imperial study, the emperor read it in one breath after receiving An Mingchen's excerpt, and after reading it, he showed a smile that he had not seen for a long time in this time, "Lord An really did not disappoint me, not only helped me solve the flood, but also thought of a wonderful way to prevent drought, okay, it's really good." ”
"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, the people of Jiangnan will definitely be grateful to Your Majesty." Gonggong Li stepped forward to congratulate. The emperor smiled and waved his hand, "At this time, it is too early to congratulate, Lord An said, there is still a shortage of food in Jiangnan, and the grain harvested in autumn this year should have been collected, and tomorrow I will send someone to allocate some relief grain to Jiangnan." In addition, Mr. An has been going to Jiangnan for a while, and when the relief food arrives, Mr. An should also return to Beijing.
When Gonggong Li heard this, he knew that the matter was really resolved, and a smile gradually appeared on his face. Seeing that the emperor was still laughing one second ago, and the next second he was starting to be depressed again, he was suddenly a little puzzled, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?" ”
"It's okay, I'm a little tired and go for a walk in the Imperial Garden." got up and left the imperial study with his hands behind his back, Gonggong Li followed, lowered his head and quickly thought about why the emperor's face suddenly changed.
In Kunning Palace, Zheng Guifei gave birth for a few days and began to sit still, this day, I heard that the emperor pampered a new show girl who entered the palace last night, and not only sealed the show girl as a beauty in the morning, but also rewarded a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, Zheng Guifei was immediately anxious when she heard it, thinking about her distant grounding, and then thinking about the concubines in the harem, dressed up early in the morning, and took the palace maid to the gate of Kunning Palace.
"You are so bold, you dare to treat this concubine like this, don't think that this concubine is grounded now, you can ignore this concubine like this and get out of the way, otherwise, don't blame this concubine for being unkind to you." Zheng Guifei rushed forward directly, although the guards were afraid of the emperor's punishment, but they were even more afraid that Zheng Guifei would be injured, if Zheng Guifei was injured because of this, the emperor would punish him, and they would be unlucky.
Seeing that Zheng Guifei bumped into it, the guards retreated, and Zheng Guifei smiled proudly when she saw this, "It's good to know each other like this earlier, I have to lose my temper." After tidying up his clothes, he walked to the imperial study with the palace maid and eunuch, and when he passed through the imperial garden, he saw that the emperor was taking Li Gongcheng for a walk, his face was happy, and he turned around and walked forward.
"The concubines see the emperor." The delicate voice came, and the emperor didn't have to look back to know who the person behind him was, but, how could she be here, wasn't she grounded? The person who turned his head to see him clearly, and knew that she had broken out without guessing
"Your Majesty, I haven't seen you for many days, have you missed the concubine very much these days, the emperor's concubine really knows that it is wrong, the emperor will spare the concubine this time in the face of our many years of love, the concubine ......"
"Concubine Zheng, you are so bold, again and again disobedient to my insistence, leaving Kunning Palace without permission, do you really dare not punish you or what?" The emperor stepped forward step by step with a calm face, Concubine Zheng rarely saw him angry, and was a little afraid, "No, the concubine really just misses you, the emperor punished me for grounding for so long, the concubine is afraid, the concubine is ......"
"So you can disobey my will and leave Kunning Palace without permission?" The emperor didn't wait for him to explain, and questioned again, "I see that I am too tolerant of you, so I let you be so presumptuous again and again." Come, escort Zheng Guifei back to Kunning Palace, and send the grandmother who teaches the palace rules to the past, if such a thing happens again next time, I want you to follow Zheng Guifei to be punished by the entire Kunning Palace. ”
The palace maid and eunuch were immediately frightened when they heard this, and hurriedly knelt down to admit their mistakes, Zheng Guifei didn't expect the emperor to be so ruthless to her, with an angry face, the emperor turned around and left as if he didn't see it, just now he just missed Huangfu Xue a little, and when he saw Zheng Guifei's appearance, he missed her more and more. The emperor even couldn't wait to go out of the palace to find her.
He couldn't remember the name of the restaurant he said that day, but it didn't matter that Dongcheng was that big, as long as he looked carefully, he would definitely find it. The more the emperor thought about it, the more anxious he became, and he hurried back to the dormitory without caring about Gonggong Li and the others.
Gonggong Li stayed behind to watch Zheng Guifei being sent back to Kunning Palace, and on the way back, Zheng Guifei suddenly spoke, "The matter of the little sixth son was done by Gonggong Li." ”
"The slave just obeys the emperor's orders to do things, and if the concubine Niangniang has complaints, she can only blame the little sixth son for her own happiness." Father-in-law Li took himself out with a word. Concubine Zheng Guifei became more and more angry when she heard this, "What kind of blessing, you are the emperor's cronies, the palace maids in the entire palace, who is not respectful to you, you want to find someone and you can't find it, but don't forget what you promised the concubine?" ”
Gonggong Li stopped and looked up at Concubine Zheng Guifei, "Niangniang, please be cautious, the slave is a slave, the status of the mother is noble, and it is really not a good thing for the mother and the old slave to be related." Gonggong Li planned to clear up the relationship, but Concubine Zheng Guifei was unwilling, "Do you think you can clear up the relationship by saying this, Gonggong Li, do you really think there is any secret in this palace?" ”
"The old slave doesn't know what Niangniang is talking about, Niangniang Kunning Palace has arrived, Niangniang, please take it." After a pause, "If the old slave is a mother, she will not be so impulsive, and in the end, the gains outweigh the losses, and harm others and yourself." After speaking, Zheng Guifei, who was displeased with her face, left Kunning Palace directly with people.
Just now, Gonggong Li specially read out the emperor's will, and the people in Kunning Palace were all worried, for fear that their master would make something happen again.
