Chapter 294: The Emperor's Test
In Ningyuan Palace, the emperor summoned Yan Liu, who was busy choosing a daughter-in-law for his son, came to the palace very unhappily, listening to the drunken emperor say a lot of trivial words about his father, when he came, Shu Ruhai had already told him what happened in Rui Wangfu, and Yan Liu, who had never lost a bet, ushered in another victory in his life before this old life was about to die.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to lose the bet!"
Yan Liu knocked on the table with an empty wine glass, and said with some complacency: "The junior's affairs, the elders should interfere less, otherwise they can only end up being a person inside and out, the emperor looks at the old minister, and tries his best to find a daughter-in-law for his son, but people don't appreciate it, just like the old minister wants his life!" Ay! Look at the old minister! King Rui has always been assertive, and the emperor should put aside the matter of Princess Rui for the time being! ”
"Fart!" The emperor slapped the table in anger, shaking the tea set left and right. "I am his son, and it is only right that he is in charge of marriage! You don't have the ability to discipline your son by yourself, and you still come to me! ”
"Since the emperor said so, the old minister also opened up and said, there are four princes in the emperor, the eldest prince has now gone to the Zongren Mansion, and King Su has gone to Lingyin Temple, leaving these two, one is seriously ill and dying, and the other has not been on the battlefield by the emperor to the Governor's Mansion, if the emperor has the ability to discipline his son, how can he leave this mess!"
Yan Liu calmly took a sip of jasmine I flower tea, and smashed his mouth beautifully.
The emperor was already drunk with half a pot of wine, and as soon as the door of Ning Yuan Palace was closed, he was no different from an ordinary man, listening to Yan Liu so underestimate and despise himself, the emperor's not very sober mind suddenly became angry.
He slapped the table a few times angrily, stretched out his trembling finger and pointed at Yan Liu and said: "I am the king of a country, and all the people in the world are my people, I can take care of the country, but I can't cure these little rabbit cubs?" ”
"People are close and alien, can the emperor be ruthless to some people, and can he be ruthless to his own flesh and blood? Be a daddy! It's all the same! Yan Liu raised his eyebrows with emotion and sighed, and helped the emperor to sit down: "King Rui has already started a family, since the emperor only wants him to spend the rest of his life happily, then he should not interfere with him, Princess Rui is living with him, of course he knows whether it is good or bad!" In the matter of Shen Ke, Princess Rui did nothing wrong, and the emperor still has to read the relationship between father and son! Seeing that the emperor was covering his head, Yan Liu and Shu Ruhai made a look, and Shu Ruhai immediately stepped forward to rub his eyebrows for the emperor.
The pain subsided, the emperor was drunk and sobered up for the most part, spread out his hands on the armrests, leaned against the back of the chair, closed his eyes, and he comfortably enjoyed the book like a sea, which had the best strength and speed, and smiled bitterly: "Old fox! Old fox! Or turned to this, hey! Children are debts! Whoever made me owe them in my last life, I am willing to gamble and lose! But I still have a hurdle in my heart, can you help me overcome it? ”
Shen Ke is the emperor's can.
Yan Liu, who had a drama in his mind, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, please speak!" ”
"Come here!" The emperor beckoned to Yan Liu.
Yan Liu walked forward quickly, leaned over and put his ears in front of the emperor, and the emperor shook his arm and covered his ear with his hand and muttered.
"If it's sincere, if there's true love, I'll just turn a blind eye!"
Yan Liu, who straightened his waist, glanced at Shu Ruhai and the emperor, nodded and responded: "The old minister is willing to serve!" ”
"You don't have to go to great lengths to find your daughter-in-law everywhere, you can do this well, I will give Yan Xinglu a marriage!" The emperor, who had half of the stone in his heart, was a lot more relaxed, although he still couldn't accept this matter, but he had already seen the powerful relationship.
Yan Liule responded with a word of thanks, and then left the palace with the emperor's instructions, just happened to meet Ning Zhiyuan's sedan chair and Chang Liu on the road, and he left without saying hello.
He would be so enthusiastic about this matter, it was just because of Yan Xinglu, if it weren't for Yan Xinglu's resoluteness and later assurance, he would never have been stirred into this pool of troubled waters, thinking of his son who was still on a hunger strike in the house, he could only sigh bitterly, love words, it was really harmful!
Since the day of the triage of the three divisions, Yan Xinglu was locked in the house by Yan Liu, in order to show his determination, he refused the doctor's diagnosis and treatment and has been on a hunger strike, which made Mrs. Yan distressed and could only put pressure on Yan Liu, and Yan Liu, who couldn't stand Mrs. crying, making trouble, and hanging himself, could only compromise to find Yan Xinglu, and after the two fathers and sons discussed a countermeasure and promised each other, Yan Xinglu finally ate a bite of food.
I didn't see Yan Xinglu for a few days, it was Zhang Jing who was idle and had nothing to do who came to Yan's Mansion to visit, looking at Yan Xinglu lying on the bed with a sallow face and a former judgment, Zhang Jing sighed with emotion.
"I heard that Lord Yan has been asking the matchmaker to find you a daughter-in-law these days, I thought it was a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true! Look at you like this, we really have the same disease! "Since the last time the queen planned to marry him and Ding Yanxiang's second daughter, Mrs. Guo has not been idle, a few days ago I happened to go to the home of Dong Yi, the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu, to visit the eldest lady of the Dong family, and began to think about it, although Zhang Jing is a person who is used to playing in Yanliu Lane on weekdays, but he is not ambiguous about his feelings when he is close to Zhu Zhechi, and he is also very cautious about his wife who wants to get along with him until he is old in the future.
"Why are you willing to leave your Miss Chen to come to me today?" Yan Xinglu, who was lying on the bed, tilted his head to look at Zhang Jing, and his face buried in the pillow was only half exposed.
"My mother went to ransom her, saying that she was going back to her hometown!" Zhang Jing helplessly spread his hands and slapped his legs.
Yan Xinglu stretched out his hand and put it under his face: "They all say that Zhangfu is rich, this is not a lie, the red card in the stunning building, it will cost at least four or five thousand to redeem yourself!" With such a generous spending, Miss Chen is really blessed! ”
"I won't talk about it, but I'll talk about you, now that you're prestigious, and you've become a cabinet scholar, don't you recognize our friends? Don't tell us about such a big thing, with your character, isn't it just a matter of one sentence to find a daughter-in-law? Do you have any favorites, I'll help you check the gates? ”
"Come on, don't scare others, you rarely came to me in the past, what is the big thing to do today?"
Zhang Jing glanced outside the house, sat down in front of the bed with a chair, leaned over and whispered: "Yesterday, King Chao came to find the Marquis of Zhenguo, I drank some wine and fell asleep on the lawn, and I happened to hear their conversation. ”
King Chao looking for the Marquis of Zhenguo? Yan Xinglu glanced up at Zhang Jing, saw that his expression was nervous and serious, and it seemed to be something important, so he continued to listen.
"They talked about General Shen and said some things, I feel that I should come and talk to you!"
"General Shen?" At this time, Shen Ke is a taboo topic, and judging from the relationship between King Chao and Shen Ke, Zhang Jing will definitely not bring good news. But as Zhang Jing, why did he do such a detrimental thing to him? "Why did you tell me?"
Zhang Jing didn't surprise Yan Xinglu's rhetorical question, he leaned back and looked up at the roof: "Although I am a member of the Zhang family, I am also a member of Dahe, there are some things, I can't stand it, he plans to take this opportunity to clean up the three armies, you also know how many people died last time the Fuhu army mutiny!" Now most of the three armies still trust General Shen, and if King Chao starts to clean up, more than half of the soldiers of the three armies of Oga will die tragically in prison. ”
"The affairs of the military department, our cabinet can't take care of it!"
"Jinyiwei has laid a net of heaven and earth, General Shen can't escape, now Jinyiwei is targeting the mountains and forests between the capital and Jinzhou, according to the days, the search is almost over, General Shen is alive or dead, at most there will be news the day after tomorrow, Xintonghou is suppressing bandits in that area, I also firmly believe that General Shen is not rebellious, you are friendly with King Rui, and that's all I can help him!"
Xin Tonghou and King Rui are friends, King Rui and Shen Ke are in-laws, and Zhang Jing's words can be understood by Yan Xinglu.
"On weekdays, looking at your appearance, I didn't expect you to have such a benevolent heart, but Xintonghou is going to suppress bandits, and General Shen is now a criminal in the imperial court, so he can't help!"
"Delay for a few days, as long as you can delay for a few days, there will definitely be changes, Xin Tonghou is a rare person in the court, and he is friendly with King Rui, planning and planning, he will definitely be able to help General Shen!"
Zhang Jing is so enthusiastic? Yan Xinglu still had some doubts in his heart, Zhang Jing's identity was here after all, if this matter was revealed, King Rui would be involved.
"Zhang Jing, you have selfish intentions!"
Zhang Jingyi said indignantly: "How can I have it! ”
"The Marquis of Zhenguo has always wanted to pass the throne to Zhang Shizi, the hope of the uncle is all on you, you want to take such an opportunity to please Queen Chao I don't blame you, you also know the situation in Beijing, if King Rui interferes, it is equivalent to self-destruction of the future, and the Marquis of Xintong is also the time to show his edge, killing two birds with one stone, you can't fool me! I think you'd better go back! The Tao is different, not the same! ”
Looking at Yan Xinglu's calm eyes, Zhang Jing lowered his voice impatiently and excitedly and shouted, "Why don't you believe me!" There's going to be a big move soon! Do you really want to watch so many innocent soldiers suffer? ”
"If the emperor really treats the soldiers who shed blood for Dahe like this, someone will naturally stand up, this person can't be me! Friends, don't talk about that! Let's go! ”
Before the situation is clear, whoever wants to stand up is blocking their own way out.
