"Find!" Yan Qingge's brows furrowed tightly: "Call the person watching the horse and ask about the situation." ”

Because after these horses are brought back to the capital, the environment will inevitably not be as good as those raised in Qingzhou, and in a few generations, they will degenerate into the same quality as the horses raised in the capital now, so there are no additional barbarians who can raise horses to go back, but a few people from the Yanwang Mansion are divided to watch, and they don't care much.

After a while, five men came to watch the horses.

All five of them were sincerely frightened, and when they entered the house, they knelt down with a thud.

It's okay to say if you lose another horse, as long as you beg Princess Ning Niangniang, for the sake of their contribution to accompanying them all the way, I am afraid that they will not be punished, but everyone knows that the phantom is the heart of Niangniang, and it is the hero who saved the lives of Niangniang and the young master, this can also be lost, and the sin will be great.

Without waiting for these subordinates to take the initiative to admit punishment, Yan Qingge frowned and asked, "Where are these horses placed?" ”

"Hui Niangniang, because Qingzhou horses are cold and not heat-resistant, and the weather has been good recently, let's stay soon, so we will follow the practice of this road, do not build a horse shed, keep the horses free range outside the village, and also ask them to eat some grass." One said.

Another person said: "At noon, I also gave the phantom a bath, paid a villager a silver, and asked the phantom to eat some green wheat seedlings on the side of the road, usually the phantom is very well-behaved, if no one rides, never leave the group, who knows how to find the phantom when the horse comes back, and then order a little more, and the other horses are also lost." ”

Yan Qingge's brows furrowed tightly.

The Phantom is a mare with a very good personality, and never picks the owner, if it is like tricking it, it is not very difficult.

These subordinates couldn't help but regret secretly in their hearts, why didn't they allocate someone to watch it all day and night.

Yan Qingge pondered carefully and asked, "Are the nearby villagers suspicious?" ”

"There should be no suspicion, many villagers here have never seen horses in their lives, especially Qingzhou horses, which are tall, and they can't avoid them for fear of being trampled by horses, and we have already revealed our identities, they will not risk being imprisoned to steal horses." These horses were stolen, and it must have been done by someone who knew how to ride them. ”

Yan Qingge listened to the analysis of the horse breeder, which was similar to what she thought in her own heart.

"Niangniang, the villain has a guess, but I'm afraid it's too abrupt." A man who raised horses said through gritted teeth.

"Speak!" Yan Qingge said.

"Could it be that the fathers-in-law took the horses away? When they left, there was no one of us to send them off, dragging the roots of the tree from the main road to leave, along the way to see the Qingzhou horses we brought back to the capital, will they like it in their hearts, and take it without telling them? After all, the place where we raise horses is not close to the main road, and there are very few people passing by, and only those fathers-in-law can ride, and the number of people can just take away so many horses......" The man said while looking at Yan Qingge worriedly.

"Catch up with them!" Yan Qingge Huo Ran stood up.

If it weren't for the mention of this horse breeder, she really didn't expect that it would be this group of fathers-in-law for the time being, and if you think about it, only they are the most suspicious. She only thought that these eunuchs were greedy for money, but she didn't expect that they would be so greedy that they plucked their feathers.

Yan Qingge's order went down, and immediately someone from the Yanwang Mansion who was in charge of this matter came in to report: "Niangniang, when we first found out that the horse was missing, we sent someone to chase those fathers-in-law, and there may be a letter in a while." ”

Since he decided that it was these fathers-in-law who stole the horses, Yan Qingge felt a little relieved, thought about it, and waved his hand: "Bring the phantom back, other horses can be given to them, just say that it is the one I like very much, and I can't cut it." ”

These eunuchs went back to restore Yan Shuyu's life, and they still have important uses for keeping them, and they can't tear their faces for the time being.

In the middle of the night, the people from the Yanwang Mansion who were cold came in and said to Yan Qingge: "Niangniang, then Eunuch Zhao refuses to return the phantom to us, saying that he also likes that horse very much." ”

Yan Qingge sneered again and again, doesn't he still want to deduct money? With a wave of her hand, she instructed Xunshuang and Wenxue: "Put the red copper in a box and send them to change horses." ”

These coppers with red colors were originally used by her to look at the beautiful color and luster, and she was going to take them back to make a batch of bronze ware. According to his uncle Le Yi, the red copper associated with this gold mine is made of a clear color and luster of utensils, because there is a small amount of gold contained in it, there will be beautiful restrained patterns, dazzling light, and it looks better than ordinary bronze.

She only brought a cart with her, and today she gave a quarter of what she gave to these eunuchs in a day.

With this box of red colored copper, the phantom was brought back in the middle of the night.

The subordinate of the report kowtowed to Yan Qingge through the window and said, "Those fathers-in-law asked, do you want the rest of the horses, these horses are very good, no worse than phantoms." ”

Yan Qingge had just fallen asleep at that time, and he was irritable when he heard it, so he waved his hand and said coldly: "Don't do it, tell them to stay on the road to transfer." ”

After listening to Yan Qingge's words, the people outside said yes, and then reported: "There is another thing to tell the mother, the roots we took away from these fathers-in-law are gone." On the way back, we searched carefully with torches and found one in a barren grassy beach on the side of the road. ”

The eunuchs, apparently not going to take the roots with them, deliberately discarded them.

Yan Qingge said lightly: "Don't care." ”

Yan Shuyu sent a eunuch who pretended to be the eldest princess of Roufu to instruct the false letter, which made Yan Qingge's heart feel troubled, but fortunately, this matter was quickly turned over, Yan Qingge only wrote it down in his heart, and soon stopped thinking about it.

Time flies, and half a month has passed, and the thin jacket can't be worn during the day, so everyone changes into a much lighter spring dress. The road is full of lush greenery, spring flowers, bees buzzing, and farmers busy.

The closer they are to the capital, the faster they go, the more official posts, and the night's accommodation is in the official posts, so you can learn a lot about the latest situation in the capital for the first time.

The Yanwang Mansion is still as low-key as ever, and there is hardly any news about the Yanwang Mansion. However, for the Yanwang Mansion, no news is good news.

What is in the limelight now is the battle between the emperor and the grandson who has been stirred up again in the court, and the battle over who should be appointed as the new queen.

The original queen's family background was not obvious, and she didn't have any additional strengths, although she was very innocent and there would be no danger of relatives interfering in politics, but now that she is dead, a big hidden danger will be revealed - she doesn't have a family member who lives in the town, so she naturally goes to tea and cool.

The emperor is over fifty years old, and although he has always been sick, who doesn't want to support a new queen who is beneficial to him. Several princes naturally stood up, and even the second prince and the fifth prince spoke out separately, made their stands, and urged the emperor to establish the queen as soon as possible.

Looking at the news in the official mansion newspaper, Yan Qingge smelled a different atmosphere.

Unlike last time, in this battle between the emperor and the grandson, the ministers almost overwhelmingly supported Yuan Jin, and I don't know why, the only one who is still fighting against the ministers is the silent prince.

The dispute between the queen is much more complicated, that is, the concubine Hou who has been under house arrest in the palace for her guilt has been mentioned repeatedly, because she gave birth to two sons, which is a great credit to the royal family, whose heirs have not been rich.

In addition, there are also those who propose Concubine Rong, as well as those who propose that the two statements are not obvious, and they have no children, but Concubine Gu and Concubine Lin, who have a good family background.

What surprised Yan Qingge the most was that the name of the talented concubine was also impressive.

When you think about it, she can understand it. After the chaos at the beginning, the palace is no longer the situation where a hundred flowers bloomed at the beginning. The puppet fake emperor has always lived in seclusion, for fear of revealing his identity, he naturally will not choose a concubine easily, and it is impossible to be lucky with the women of the real emperor before. There is only Yan Shuyu who comes and goes all year round by his side.

is so deeply favored, coupled with the Yan family, who was born in the four scholarly families, the partial birth of the mother's family has declined again, but the sister in the family is married well, Princess Ning. And she has no children, even if she is made the queen, it will not have any impact on the status of the current prince.

Therefore, whether it is the people on the prince's side, or the people who want to tie up the Yan Palace, or those who want to make profits from it and cling to the new queen, they all invariably fall in love with Yan Shuyu.

All this has become a favorable condition for Yan Shuyu to stand out in this post-seizure battle.

As the capital got closer and closer, there were more and more names about the talented concubines in those palace newspapers, and Yan Qingge was secretly frightened when he saw it.

She knows best, sometimes things in the court can't be done by one person or two people, when everyone speaks in unison, a torrent will be formed, in it, everyone can't help themselves, their original opinions are no longer important, and they can't stop it when the time comes, and they must have a result before they stop.

Only when things subside and the craze calms down will you see what a stupid decision you made at that time.

The only thing Yan Qingge can hope for now is that the prince can control the situation and suppress all this. But judging from the current situation, it seems a bit dangerous.

Since entering the palace, Yan Shuyu is not as naïve as before, after a lot of blows and adversity, her methods have become a lot more sophisticated.

She is used to being good at fanning the flames, grasping people's hearts, and using public opinion and public sentiment to build momentum for herself.

But this time, Yan Shuyu did it seamlessly, and even Yan Qingge couldn't do anything to refute her. After all, if she didn't always know that Yan Shuyu had a second heart, she would also feel that Yan Shuyu was a good candidate for the seal in all aspects.

Before you know it, it is only less than five days away from the capital.

There are two subordinates from the Yanwang Mansion who have already taken their horses first, and they are going to the Yanwang Mansion to report the news, informing Yan Qingge that he has returned, and asking them to prepare for greeting.

At the same time, the news that Yan Qingge could see in the post station about the battle after the closure of the capital was already the closest to the things that were happening in the capital now.

This day's Di Bao made Yan Qingge frown, and there were more and more people who supported Yan Shuyu, and even the right minister stood up.

Is there really no room for redemption in this matter?
