Chapter 36: Loss
When Huo Yanyi woke up, he felt that the world was exceptionally pure.
Familiar bed tents, familiar bedding, familiar bedclothes, this is back to the palace?
He quickly remembered the last scene before he lost consciousness, as if someone had rammed his carriage, causing him to accidentally knock himself unconscious.
Anger gradually crept up in his heart, and Huo Yanzhi snorted: "Someone! ”
Zhao Jiufu, who had a surprised face, came over with red eyes, and the expression on his face was very familiar, almost exactly the same as the accident the day before the Flower God Festival.
After asking what happened, Huo Yanzhi wrinkled his eyebrows.
"Is it Princess An's little cousin? I remember that the Luo family seems to be also the home of poetry and books......"
Zhao Jiufu looked at his face and said slowly: "Your Majesty, this rude fanatic who rushed into Your Majesty is named Luo Zhang, and he is the cousin of Princess An's next room, and he is called Uncle Anpinghou. His father was a member of the staff department, and he himself only took the test for a show of talent, and now he has been won the ......"
Huo Yanzhi's face remained unswerving.
It seems that he is a side branch relative who relies on the nepotism of Princess An and Marquis Anping, although the relationship is not close, but he dares to gallop on Chang'an Street, and takes pleasure in colliding with civilians.
"Where are the people? Jingzhao Mansion? Dali Temple? ”
Zhao Jiufu smiled bitterly: "Just a talent and fame, where do slaves and maids dare to send people to Dali Temple?" happened to meet the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and the slave maid 'asked' them to send that Luo Gongzi to Jingzhao Mansion for reflection. ”
What he didn't say was that it was estimated that Princess An would take King Xiao'an into the palace to visit the Queen Mother soon, and maybe Mrs. Anping would also go to Kunxu Palace to visit.
Huo Yanzhi only had disgust for this kind of gentleman, and threw down the sentence "Tell Jingzhao Yin to handle it impartially and not for personal gain", and then fell asleep according to the pumping temple.
In the gloomy prison, Luo Gongzi, who was dressed in a satin robe, finally noticed that something was wrong.
He used the jade pendant on his body to try to bribe the jailer and send a message to his family for help, but the other party accepted his things, his expression was still faint, and no one came to see him from daytime to dark.
Where can he eat the cold rice and vegetables in the prison, and the night in late spring is still a little chilly, let alone such a prison that does not see the light of day.
In the midst of hunger and cold, Luo Gongzi's few talents were finally stimulated by Qi Qi, and he suddenly remembered that among the several slaves who angrily reprimanded him today, there was a short and fat man, whose voice was too high-pitched, and his face was pale and unnecessary......
Luo Zhang suddenly became suspicious: "Shouldn't you bump into a prince who entered the palace to face the saint?" But how could the prince use such a crude civilian carriage? No, it seems that King Xiaojun has returned to Beijing a while ago, and that foreigner mud leg may really be able to do this kind of thing......"
He was frightened all night, and early the next morning, he took the hosta on his head and the embroidered gold belt around his waist and gave them to the jailer yesterday, and begged very earnestly.
After waiting for another long time, he finally saw his uncle, and the first thing he said was that his father had fallen ill in bed with his anger, and he was going to expel him from the family tree.
Luo Zhang almost didn't faint from anger, and when he knew who the person he collided with yesterday was, his face was completely dead.
The middle-aged man shook his head and wanted to leave, and the disheveled young man in the prison cried, "Please uncle save me!" Aren't we still going to ask the princess and the queen mother? I don't want to die, I really don't want to die......"
The Luo family's quick knife cutting through the mess shocked Jing Zhaoyin, and he was even more hesitant to deal with it.
Although His Majesty opened Chrysostom and told him not to show favoritism, there is still a sentence in front of him to handle it impartially. Does Your Majesty want to kill him, or do you really want him to punish him impartially?
It stands to reason that if there are no casualties on the street, the most you can do is a fine and hit a few boards. But Luo Zhang's unlucky man injured His Majesty's dragon body, and this situation is unprecedented.
The attitude of the Luo family is obvious, and they directly push Luo Zhang out as an outcast. Now there are not many people in the know, and when there are more people who know, they will only clap their hands and praise them for the courage of the strong man with a broken arm. But who knows what the Luo family really thinks?
If he really sentenced Luo Zhang to death, would he be the king of Ri'an and the Marquis of Anping and his family would retaliate against him because of their face damage?
They didn't dare to complain about His Majesty, but the little Jing Zhaoyin was still very easy to deal with.
Jing Zhaoyin stayed awake all night, sat in the house all night, and didn't come up with a good way, so he could only order a three-thousand miles of exile.
didn't hit the board, didn't tattoo the words, and could "unfortunately die" on the road, which was completely a punishment for the powerful family to take advantage of the loopholes.
Jing Zhao Yin said in his heart, if the Luo family really didn't want this kid and didn't move, then he couldn't be blamed. At least, Your Majesty should always be satisfied, right?
His Majesty in the Qiande Palace was in a very bad mood.
The reason is simple, the "ability" that he was proud of yesterday and was ready to use as a hole card is suddenly gone!
At first, he found that his little cutie Wan Nianqing who had just recovered from a serious illness began to "fall asleep for a long time", and then the old lady Luo Hansong, who was stolen from Cining Palace, ignored him, and then he heard the little palace man named Zhiwei tilting his head and talking to that smiling smile, but he could only hear a person's voice.
Huo Yanzhi didn't believe in evil, and when Zhiwei left, he went out through the secret door and destroyed it with his hot hands, but no one responded to him, whether it was Yulan, Hanxiao, or the little daisy on the side of the road.
The sighs, whispers, and whispers that usually fill my ears suddenly disappeared, as if the whole world had lost its voice and became eclipsed.
This sense of loss surrounded him like an icy tide, making him feel helpless as if he were drowning.
Coincidentally, this time the injury was not serious, and he hid the matter of leaving the palace without letting the queen mother and others know, and this time there was no concubine to visit him diligently, and most of them were crowded in front of the Cining Palace, and the huge Qiande Palace suddenly showed a sense of loneliness.
Huo Yanzhi could only be angry at the culprit Luo Zhang, and when he learned that he had been sentenced to exile for 3,000 miles and had already gone on the road, he was still a little uncomfortable in his heart, and he always felt that it was too cheap for the other party.
When he saw the little palace man who was tied up when serving tea again, his mind suddenly became active.
Zhi Wei was trembling when she was looked at, and almost thought that His Majesty had changed his mind and was going to "kill people", so the other party spoke slowly.
"Want to know about your brother?"
Zhi Wei's face turned pale, and she immediately reacted, Wang Dexi "sold" her again.
However, this is also expected, after all, his master is the emperor himself......
She nodded yes with difficulty, and before she could plead guilty according to the process, the emperor asked again, "Do you want to see him?" ”
Zhi Wei's eyes widened in disbelief: "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?" ”
His Majesty did not squeak, but only stared at her deeply.
Zhi Wei bit her lip and nodded without hesitation: "The slave naturally wants to see it, but ......"
"But the palace rules are strict, and the two of you naturally can't see each other."
Zhi Wei's words before she had time to finish were intercepted, even in front of the emperor, she inevitably had a trace of resentment in her heart.
This young majesty must have deliberately played tricks on her, right?
She stopped talking, and stared at the patterns on the floor, trying to count the arcs on it.
Huo Yanzhi cleared his throat dissatisfiedly: "There is nothing difficult in the world, but I am afraid of people with hearts." If you can do a good job, and don't feel like a wandering spirit every day, I may be able to reward you with a grace. ”
Zhi Wei was stunned by this surprise that fell from the sky, and when she reacted, she had already nodded and agreed to the "secret mission" from His Majesty.
His Majesty wants her to go to the harem more, listen to the private words of the flowers and plants, and monitor the dynamics of the harem for him?
This task sounds a little strange, but Zhi Wei is not incomprehensible.
After all, His Majesty is a busy person, and there is no shortage of himself in front of the emperor, a strong man who serves tea and water, and throwing her to the harem to hang out will allow her "ability" to exert light and heat.
However, to find out the news, she also needs a reasonable name, she can't wander around the imperial garden, run to the palace of the concubines and ask for a visit, right?
Zhiwei was worried, and His Majesty's will came down.
The emperor, who seemed to have turned into a boy who scattered wealth, first sent more precious medicinal materials to the queen mother of Cining Palace, and then said that he took pity on the loneliness of the old ladies of Ci'an Palace, and sent them a lot of books and folk gadgets. Even Princess An and Xiao An, who have served the sick recently, have been rewarded once, but the queen has not moved for a long time.
waited until the first day of the fourth month here, and the emperor finally opened his mouth and sent a gift to Kunxu Palace.
The gift giver naturally didn't think about it, and directly ordered Wang Dexi and Zhiwei to take the lead in running errands.
They didn't dare to say anything about the emperor's arrangement, but they were also a little embarrassed in private, especially Zhi Wei, who had "played" a brainless and unhappy role in front of the queen.
Fortunately, when the things were sent to Kunxu Palace, the queen seemed to be unwell, or in a bad mood, and she did not show up, and was only received by the palace maid Lu Tao and others. Before leaving, Zhi Wei vaguely felt that Lu Tao seemed to take advantage of her unpreparedness to glare at her, and she could guarantee that Lu Tao would turn her head and scold her with others for being a fox and showing off her power.
The young man in front of the candle looked slightly cold, and after listening to Zhao Jiufu's report about "the queen is suddenly unwell and unable to serve His Majesty", he only smiled coldly.
He waved his hand to signal Zhao Jiufu to step back, and called Zhi Wei to come in.
"So, what did you hear?"
Zhi Wei stood aside with her hands down and replied in a low voice.
Huo Yanzhi only listened quietly, rarely interjecting, and occasionally showed a mocking smile.
The figures of the two were reflected on the screen, and suddenly a gust of wind blew, and the shadows were stretched long and distorted, and the two shadows that were originally far away seemed to be entangled in one place.
