Chapter 363: The Best of Both Worlds
The emperor was discussing court affairs with several ministers, and saw that the great eunuch An Ying seemed to have something important to report. Then he gave a few words and sent the ministers down.
Father-in-law An came to the emperor's side and whispered a few words to him. The messenger didn't dare to learn He'an's scolding words to Grandpa An, and Grandpa An even embellished the words. It only seemed that Ye Guogong's wife and Lord An went to Yao Niangzi, said a few words and left.
The emperor's face sank. He knew that his cousin was so strong that he didn't want to make a fuss about the man's "outer room", and it was impossible to take the "outer room" into the house for the sake of virtue. Most likely, this is how to knock the tiger across the mountain and knock Ye Chaoquan......
Just thinking about it, I heard the report of the guards outside the hall, and Ye Guogong asked to see him.
The emperor snorted coldly and said, "Xuan." ”
Ye Guogong knelt down, wiped the sweat on his forehead and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is derelict in his duties." Yao Niangzi's affairs were somehow known by the courtier's wife, and she took someone to Yao's house in the morning. Fortunately, for the sake of the minister's reputation, the minister's wife didn't dare to make things bigger, and only said a few angry words and left. What is the temperament of the minister's wife, the emperor also understands, the minister, the minister can no longer pretend that nothing has happened......"
It means that I am afraid of guilt and can no longer help you carry the evil scourge.
The emperor looked at him angrily and said, "Ye Aiqing got up and replied. He also said, "There is no impermeable wall, my cousin is smart, she lives in the capital, and it is only a matter of time before she finds out the clues...... paused, and said, "I like Yao's gentle nature very much, and I don't exceed the courtesy, so let her enter the palace." ”
Several members of the Ye family have already discussed that Yao Erniang must not be allowed to enter the palace directly, wouldn't that be the right thing for the Empress Dowager Qi and the Qi family, and Yao Erniang will also be used by them......
Ye Guogong hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, it's not good to pick up a woman directly from the market into the palace like this, just send those officials to be honest." ”
The emperor became angry and said, "I haven't had a draft for nearly ten years, and it's rare to see a woman, and I have to listen to the chatter of those officials." Hmph, those people are holding the court's money, and it's useless to take care of it. Since they want to be outspoken loyalists, I'll give them a chance. ”
Ye Guogong thought for a moment, bowed down and said with a smile, "I heard that the Marquis of Dongjin made a lot of jokes in the left guard camp, and once he went to the barracks with a rooster and wanted to take time to go out to play cockfighting. The rooster was wrapped in a package and was sat to death by a big guy in the ass. Dongjin Hou was so distressed that he cried, he didn't want the thousand total silver, as long as he lost the chicken...... Hahaha......"
After a few haha fights, he hurriedly hugged his fists and said, "The minister is out of shape, and the emperor atones for his sins." ”
As soon as the emperor thought of the stupidity of the Marquis of Dongjin, he thought of Qi Lin, and then thought of the joke between his father and mother and Qi Lin, which was known to almost half of the court. Since he inherited the throne, he has been more self-denying, but he is afraid of making a big joke again.
He was a little annoyed, knowing that Ye Guogong deliberately said it to him at this time.
He really doesn't want to be talked about because of a woman, and that woman is still raised outside...... However, he is the king of a country, so he can't stop the woman he likes because he is afraid of being talked about.
When the emperor hesitated, Ye Guogong said again, "Your Majesty, the ministers have a way to get the best of both worlds, which can not only block the mouths of the officials, but also let Yao Niangzi enter the palace." ”
The emperor was very interested and said, "Speak." ”
Ye Guo said fairly, "Let Yao Niangzi go to the nunnery to lead the practice, and after a month, the emperor met her by chance on the way to the ancestral temple in Weifu." And the reason why she led the practice was because she had the guidance of the immortals in her dreams, and she would see the dragon's face there...... Go to the Royal Ancestral Temple and make a detour to the west, and there is a nunnery called 'Qingci Nunnery' on the way. ”
The emperor laughed, thinking that this was indeed a good idea. Nodding his head, he said, "It's very good, to ensure the safety of the Yao family." ”
Ye Guogong bowed to be.
This result is what the three of Ye Guogong's ancestors and grandsons want the most, and it is also the best ending for Yao Erniang. But thinking of Yao Erniang's words, his heart was a little faintly sour.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard the emperor ask, "What happened to the thing I asked you to do yesterday?" ”
Yes...... Did the emperor let him do something?
When Ye Guocheng was wondering, he heard the emperor scold, "Such an important matter, Ye Aiqing actually forgot?" I don't have a long memory, and after eating so much imperial food, I ate it all into the dog's stomach...... Get lost! ”
Then, a tea bowl smashed on him, splashing him with water and tea.
Ye Guogong knelt down and said, "The minister deserves death." "Get up and stand down.
Although this was ultimately as the emperor wanted, it also took care of his face. But the emperor was still unhappy that Ye Guogong dared to ridicule the royal family about Qiu Ze's affairs, of course he was going to be angry.
When Ye Guogong left the palace, the sun was setting, and he ordered his subordinates to take care of Yao Erniang, and asked people to hurry to Qingci'an, and they couldn't get out of the city if it was too late.
After going home, Ye Guogong summoned a few men to the study to discuss, and did not enter the inner courtyard, but rested directly in the study of the outer courtyard.
And He'an in the main courtyard thought that the Ye Guo Guild came to her and confessed her mistakes and begged for peace. She sat on the Luohan bed and waited, but she didn't expect that people still didn't even see each other.
Early in the morning of the second day, Ye Guogong did not go to the Shangya, but went directly to the Ye family's courtyard, and after hearing the situation of Qingci'an, he took someone to settle Yao Erniang. He did not come forward, but stood in the courtyard to the right of Yao's house and listened to the movement.
The person who picked up Yao Erniang only said that the Holy Will asked her to go to the nunnery to wear her hair and practice.
To Ye Guogong's surprise, he didn't hear Yao Erniang's crying, but heard a burst of sad singing. The singing is melodious and beautiful, not very loud, but he can hear it clearly from next door.
The sea of people is vast and hateful, and lovesick tears are like water.
It is difficult to gather at the end of the world, and the fate comes and goes.
Tears ripple and sorrow, and sorrow is endless.
Love and hate you, love and hate are intertwined with tears.
The love is still the same, and the love is eternal.
……
Those in the know felt that Yao Erniang was singing for the emperor, but Ye Guogong knew in his heart that this was sung to him.
Yao Erniang got into the carriage, and Ye Guogong walked over. said to her in the car, "Please take care of Mrs. Yao." ”
Yao Erniang said softly, "People like me shouldn't be tempted, if they do, they won't be far from death...... "She will die if she dies, but she is afraid of affecting her family and younger brother."
Ye Guogong wanted to say "You won't die", but he held back. He also felt bad in his heart, and he would lose this titular outer chamber forever. He knew that if Yao Erniang had relied on him and let him have no words, the Ye family and him would be unlucky. The emperor will not raid the door of the Ye family because of such a woman, but his bright career will be ruined......
The three families of this alley came quietly and walked quietly. The puzzled neighbors talked for a few days and then put it away.
