King Pei Yu made a lot of nonsense on the Golden Palace, and Prime Minister Su Shi revealed each other, and the two were embarrassed, trying in vain to discredit the Son of Heaven and confuse the public...... Jingzong is generous, reciting the past merits of the Su family, and the tolerance of the wide, everyone who hears it is said to be 'benevolent'. ”

Today's incident in the Xuanzheng Palace, many years later, turned into a few strokes in the history books, compared with the prosperous era created by Pei Zhao, such a thing is just a drop in the ocean, but in the eyes of the current officials, this matter involves the current emperor, and even the reputation of the first emperor and the queen mother, naturally not to be underestimated.

In particular, when they saw that His Majesty had really agreed to Su Shi's unreasonable request and announced the handsome young man wearing a pale cyan official uniform and holding a jade box into the hall, an unprecedented fear rose in their hearts.

Imperial court ministers, harem concubines, and court people...... Now that even the decree of Danqing Pavilion has been stirred in, how long is the hand of King De and the Su family! However, compared to Pei Yu's almost leakless personal network, what frightened them more was still the king who sat quietly on the throne.

Everyone knows that no matter what Pei Yu says and does this time, he is already a lost dog sunset, and at this end of the road, he is so bold to expose his deeply hidden layout in broad daylight. As the saying goes, after Pei Yu is disposed of, what kind of tough and ruthless wrist will His Majesty use to carry out a bloodbath on the forces left behind by Pei Yu? !

A few months ago, the tragedy of the Mo family appeared in front of them again, they didn't dare to think about it anymore, and they didn't want to think about it anymore, but they subconsciously set their eyes on Ye Jingzhi standing in the hall, he used to be just a prince who painted for his ladies in the harem, and later was transferred to the palace by His Majesty's grace to paint for His Majesty alone. Is such a person who should have been far away from the court standing here in the open now?

Not everyone here may know that the bride who married the queen mother is the most faceable female official beside the queen mother, but he is like a mirror for the fact that he has always been good friends with the Su family, Sun Li took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, everyone in Tianjing City knows that Ye Jingzhi, the Cheng of Danqing Pavilion, has close contacts with the Su family, and it is common for the two families to visit each other in the wine shop. Such a person must be devoted to the Su family, if he says any nonsense and ridiculous words, he is afraid that he will insult the saints! ”

"There's no hurry." Pei Zhao looked at Su Shi with a smile and said, "Danqing Pavilion has never asked about the government, I want to know, what do you want to do when you bring him?" ”

Su Shi's old and peaceful face showed a meaningful smile, if what he planned was regarded as a game with Pei Zhao, then Ye Jingzhi was his last and most lethal chess piece. If you are not careful, you will lose the whole game, and he Su Shi, even if there is only one last chess left, he is completely sure that he can recover the decline in front of him!

Ye Jingzhi still knelt at the bottom of the stairs respectfully and quietly as before, Su Ying looked at the jade box he was holding in his hand, and his heart "groaned", and he was occupied by anxiety.

She has been the queen for five years, and she has been the queen mother for more than a year, for more than six years, every year she has to sit patiently all day, waiting for the decree of Danqing Pavilion to make a painting for her and put it in the royal palace, once it was Mr. Shen, and then it was his closed disciple Mr. Ye, today Ye Jingzhi is holding it in his hand, is it, is it ......

Pei Zhao seemed to notice her uneasiness, and brought the tea cup in his hand to her lips, fed her a sip of tea, and whispered: "Ah Ming, don't be afraid." ”

Such an intimate move naturally set off a silent storm in the court, but Pei Zhao didn't care, and even wiped his mouth for Su Ming, Fang said lightly: "What are you holding in your hand?" Open it. ”

Ye Jingzhi replied "yes", then slowly opened the jade box, and said, "Please send a few people to help the lower officials." ”

Tong He made a gesture, and seven palace ladies stepped forward, and there were seven painting scrolls in the box, and one person happened to be holding one. Ye Jingzhi was not in a hurry to let them unfold the scroll, but said slowly:

"Last night, Su Xiang came to Xiaguan's house, took Wanjin Meiyu as a gift, and asked Xiaguan to help him do something. But this matter is not trivial, the lower officials have no choice but to bring the relevant things to the court in person, and ask His Majesty to solve the doubts of the lower officials, this favor, should the lower officials help? ”

Pei Zhao said quietly: "You can talk to me and listen to it." ”

"Su Xiangtuo's subordinate made six paintings for him, these paintings are not flowers, birds, insects and fish, but portraits." Ye Jingzhi pointed to the first Gong'e, who hurriedly unfolded the scroll, only to see a young woman in palace clothes on the snow-white paper, standing among the red leaves of Lishan Mountain and pondering something. The woman had a beautiful appearance, fair complexion, and a pair of bright eyes that were extremely smart and moving, and it was Su Ying who was sitting on the throne with Pei Zhao.

In the surprised gaze of the hundred officials, Ye Jingzhi continued: "Su Xiang asked the subordinate officials to make six more portraits according to this portrait, and specially instructed a few of them to find ways to make a sense of age, so as to confuse the real with the fake. He also instructed the subordinate officials to bring the painting to the court today, and pointed out that the person in the painting was his biological daughter, the queen mother of the dynasty. ”

Su Shi had already realized that something was wrong when he heard Ye Jingzhi talk about the gift of jade, and when he saw Ye Jingzhi actually say something unnecessary, his heart sank, and he said: "You don't want to talk nonsense here!" The old man gave you a beautiful jade last night, but he asked you to bring the portrait made for the Queen Mother to the court, why did you ever let you copy it?! ”

Ye Jingzhi didn't pay attention to him, but stepped forward in person, while carefully unfolding the remaining six painting scrolls, he said loudly: "The thing entrusted by Su Xiang is really bizarre, and the paper and ink for painting in the palace have always been regulated, where can the lower officials easily find it?" Therefore, the lower official thought about it, so he had to bring the portrait painted for the Queen Mother to the palace and ask His Majesty for advice. ”

The six paintings are different due to the time and day, some are as white as new, and some are slightly yellow, but the woman painted above, the first five are wearing the queen's clothes, and the last one is wearing the queen mother's clothes.

is still a person who has never seen it before, and looks completely different from the queen mother on the throne.

"This is the portrait made by Mr. Shen and Xia Guan for the Queen Mother."

As soon as these words were spoken, things became clear. Obviously, the Su family and Pei Yu have long been colluded in a vain attempt to rebel, but Pei Yu is really mediocre and collapsed under the blows of His Majesty's understatement, this group of traitors are angry and embarrassed, and they actually came up with such a ridiculous method. In a vain attempt to confuse the identity of the current queen and the queen mother, let Ye Jingzhi use the portrait as an intermediary to frame His Majesty's mother, such a crime is really innocent!

Pei Yu was keenly aware of the changes in the court, if there were still so many people who were disturbed by his words just now, he could be said to be a thousand people now. So many eyes of ridicule or disgust or disdain were like thousands of sharp arrows, piercing his heart and mouth, and even speaking became difficult:

"You talk nonsense!"

He pointed at Ye Jingzhi and glared angrily: "As the commander of the Danqing Pavilion, you dare to swap out the portrait in the imperial palace without permission, and join forces with this faint monarch to act and deceive the world!" ”

"For the queen and the queen mother, you must use good Lingxiao paper and pine smoke ink." Ye Jingzhi said lightly: "These two things are tributes, only the heavenly family can use them, and the amount of tribute paid every year is recorded by the procurement office, if you don't believe it, you can ask Your Majesty to summon the procurement office to inquire." Many of you here are well-informed people, so you can ask them to see if this painting is a tribute! ”

Pei Yu was so angry that his eyes turned red, and he almost lost his temper: "You bastard, you dare to do such a deceitful thing!" He yelled at the minister behind him like crazy: "And you! Some of you must have seen the Queen Mother, and you haven't come to expose this fake bastard! There is also procurement, where is the procurement, to this king Xuan into the palace! ”

In response to him, there was only deathly silence and Pei Zhao's mocking gaze, Pei Yu looked at Su Shi tremblingly, and shouted in despair: "Su Xiang, we haven't lost yet!" Come and see, come and see! ”

Now that failure is a foregone conclusion, what is the difference between watching and not seeing? Su Shi's always radiant eyes finally shed two lines of muddy tears, it turned out that Pei Zhao had already calculated everything, this person even knew his every step of the plan clearly, he guarded a person like Pei Yu, how to fight him!

With tears in his eyes, he saw his daughter who had loved him for many years sitting next to Pei Zhao, and his eyes were so pure that he could not tolerate a trace of impurities, at this time, he gritted his teeth and smiled miserably: "The matter has come to this, the old minister has nothing to say, but the old minister has something to ask the queen mother, I don't know if the queen can agree?" ”

Su Ying tried her best to hold back her tears, and said casually: "Su Xiang, please speak." ”

"Old minister...... Ask the queen's name, I don't know if the mother is willing to tell? ”

Famous ......

When she was in Lishan, in fact, she was also distressed, after returning to the palace again, if you want to grow up with Pei Zhao for a long time without incident, changing the name is naturally the best way, she didn't say anything on her face, but she was a little sad in her heart, her "瑗" word was written on rice paper by her father himself, at that time the family said, "瑗" is beautiful jade, and she is the most cared for baby in the Su family.

This name carries too much warmth, she has given up her family, and this name is her last thought.

At that time, Pei Zhao noticed her thoughts, so he comforted her and said that she didn't need to change her name, just use such a name to enter the palace, he would take care of everything, let her not worry, she asked a few more words, and Pei Zhao said solemnly:

"What I want is for Ah Ying to be upright and happy to be with me, if I don't have this name, how can others know that my queen is called 'Su Jin', how can you be happy?"

The temperature of her palm pulled her back from her distant thoughts, and Su Ying noticed that Pei Zhao was holding her hand tightly, and the panic in her heart disappeared for the most part: "This palace and Su Xiang ...... It is the same door, with a single name...... Single name one ......"
