Chapter 31 Planning (1)
The next day, Yang Ming wrote to the emperor and recommended Shen Wei to serve as the secretary of Dali Temple and take over the Liuxiangfang fire case. In terms of the family, it immediately boiled, this poor man, not long after he took the position, he promoted another cold man to an important position, and took over the criminal case related to the family, how can they feel at ease. Then they wrote one after another, asking the emperor to reject Yang Ming's proposal to recommend Shen Wei, however, the emperor waved his pen and ordered Xu Hai to announce Yang Ming's proposal on the spot, sweeping away the public opinion!
Bang! Mu Tiantuo clenched his fists and hammered the table, and the people who were waiting were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, their bodies shrunk, and they didn't dare to raise their heads. Shen Junya sat beside him, looking at the anger on his face, and at the frightened demeanor of these subordinates, sighed silently, and ordered, "You guys should retreat for the time being." Shen Junya's words made those subordinates breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts, and they hurriedly retreated, at this moment, no one dared to wander around in front of the eldest prince, so as not to make the master unhappy, and when the time came, he would be punished.
"Father's move is to support the second brother!" Mu Yunxiao has always had a very high prestige among the cold doors, if he has the heart to recruit Yang Ming, then he will have the strength to fight against himself, how can Mu Tiantuo not be anxious in his heart! What's more, this Yang Ming is in the position of the secretary of the ministry, and he grasps the transfer of officials in the DPRK and China, and this time he recommended a Shen Wei, next time, I don't know which Han Shi to recommend!
"Husband, don't think too much. Junya heard that the second prince had not intersected with Lord Yang, and as for his father, he did not make any moves to weaken the strength of the family. Shen Junya didn't know much about the affairs of the court, but she was just thinking about how to make Mu Tiantuo dissipate some anger.
"Junya, you don't know anything about the court, although the second brother doesn't make any moves on the surface, but if he has a heart, with his prestige in the cold family, then it will be a matter of time before Yang Ming takes refuge. He was anxious, but in the face of his beloved wife, Mu Tiantuo was still patient and slowed down his tone to speak.
"Didn't that husband think about it, and let Meng Xiu and Meng Gongzi take Yang Ming's place. "Shen Junya didn't know about Meng Xiu, but a few days ago I heard Mu Tiantuo mention that he wanted Meng Xiu to take over the secretary of the ministry, so that he could feel at ease.
When it came to Meng Xiu, Mu Tiantuo was even more irritable in his heart, that kid was still hiding in the Meng Mansion, and the people from the official mansion had already heard the news that those people detained in Liuxiangfang would not let go, and they were determined that Meng Xiu was murderous, and they refused to give in. He ordered someone to tell Meng Xiu that as long as he didn't leave the house that night and didn't go to Liuxiangfang, he would try to save him. But these witnesses, how to deal with them, he really has a headache. People are in the government and can't move, if it's one or two, it's okay, as long as God handles it unconsciously, saying that he is sick in prison, and if the treatment is not timely, he can also prevaricate in the past, but there are more than ten people, and they can't all die of illness overnight.
Mu Tiantuo was worried over there, and in the midst of the flowers, Zhuo Yucheng was happy to be at ease. Dressed in light blue clothes, with a water ladle in his hand, he is watering a flower pot. Over there, Xin Yao hummed a little song and held a book and studied it carefully. It's all a booklet of some anecdotes, and it's really interesting to read. The expression on Xin Yao's face changed constantly with the ups and downs of the plot in the book.
Zhuo Yucheng looked at her sideways, such a scene was really leisurely and pleasant, and there was a faint tenderness in his eyes. Qinglian came out of the house with Pujia in her arms at this time, and said to Xinyao: "Miss Xinyao, it's cold in autumn, you can wear this cloak, don't suffer from the cold." As she spoke, Pu Jia threw the clothes she was holding in her arms on Xin Yao, impartially, and the cloak unfolded just to cover Xin Yao's body.
"Lady, look, I'm amazing. Looking up at his fleshy face, he smiled and praised Qinglian, that look was really cute. Zhuo Yucheng couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart, he couldn't imagine that the dignified king of plants and trees would have such a cute side.
Qinglian smiled at him, kissed Pu Jia's eyebrows, and praised: "Husband is so powerful." The next action made Pu Jia unbearable. The buds on the head became whiter and whiter as the leaves rose and fell in the air, just like the faces of the leaves now.
"Lady, just praise me for what I say, don't fly high, don't fly high! Help!" Pu Jia screamed in the air, with tears in her eyes, and her lovely demeanor suddenly became a little pitiful.
These days of getting along, Zhuo Yucheng can be regarded as understanding one thing, Qinglian, although she seems to be knowledgeable, gentle and considerate, in fact, she is still a little funny in her bones, and even sometimes a little out of it. It's really unpredictable.
Seeing that Pu Jia's face had turned from pale to iron-blue, Zhuo Yucheng hurriedly said, "That, Miss Qinglian, Yucheng has something to ask you for." Qinglian stopped her hand and put it down. As soon as her feet touched the ground, Pu Jia silently came to Xin Yao's side and lay down, her head was dizzy, her little arms and legs were lying on the ground in a big shape, and the small buds on her head shook slightly. Seeing him like this, Xin Yao couldn't help but put down the book in his hand and poked his fingers at his soft face.
It's really soft, glutinous, like glutinous rice dumplings. A pair of hands kneaded Pu Jia's face, squeezed it together, and pulled it apart, and it was also a lot of fun. Soon, Pu Jia's white and tender face became red under Xin Yao's ravage.
This, Zhuo Yucheng saw it, and couldn't help laughing, Lord Pujia, it's really not that Yucheng won't help you, it's really, hehe, don't blame Yucheng.
"Shenwu Jun doesn't know what's going on?" Qinglian stepped forward and asked with a smile.
"Oh, that's right. He took out Xinyao's blood jade from his bosom and said, "Miss Qinglian has experienced a lot in the world, so I don't know if I know a little about this piece of blood jade. Yucheng searched all the ancient books and records, but did not find anything. "Qinglian is a demon spirit, she has been in this mortal world for a long time, and her knowledge is wider, I don't know if she can know where this blood jade came from and why.
Qinglian thought for a while and said, "This piece of blood jade was born into this world with Miss Xinyao. In the vast time and years, Qinglian has only heard of two people, and she was born with jade. One is the Xinyao girl, and the other is the former Danyang Jun, Yin Man. ”
Zhuo Yucheng was shocked, he never knew that the master was also born with jade!
"Miss Qinglian, can you be more detailed?" It was about Yin Man, Zhuo Yucheng was naturally concerned, but Qinglian sighed lightly and said: "Concubine Rong thinks about it, after all, time flies, these past events, the concubine body needs time to sort it out well, so as to give Shenwu Jun a reasonable explanation." "Also, this kind of thing can't be explained clearly for a while. Zhuo Yucheng didn't ask any more, took a step back, and said, "It's okay, when Miss Qinglian has sorted it out, it's not too late to talk to Yucheng." ”
At this moment, a flying pigeon flew into the flowers and landed on the stone table in the courtyard, cooing softly, Xin Yao raised her eyes and said, "The message of the hidden guard, you can take a look." After speaking, he turned around again and continued to pinch Pu Jia's steamed bun face.
Zhuo Yucheng carefully grabbed the pigeon, took off the small bamboo strip tied to his leg, and quietly read the information in the bamboo strip, and then, with the palm of his hand, a cluster of flames jumped, and burned the letter paper along with the bamboo strip.
"What's the news?" Xin Yao asked without looking back.
Lord Yang recommended Shen Wei to the emperor as the secretary of Dali Temple, and began to investigate the fire in Liuxiangfang. Miss Fu has already handed over the evidence we sent to Shen Wei. While speaking, Zhuo Yucheng sat on the stone bench and poured himself a cup of tea.
"Oh, then Meng Xiu really can't run away. Hearing this, Xin Yao stopped ravaging Pu Jia, let him lie there motionless, put the cloak on his body over his small body, got up by himself, and came to Zhuo Yucheng to sit down: "I heard that he has been hiding in Mengfu recently, claiming that he did not go out that night and has never been to Liuxiangfang. ”
With a smile, Zhuo Yucheng put the tea in his mouth, and then said: "The eldest prince wants to give him the position of the secretary of the ministry, and this wishful thinking is completely wasted." Presumably, he also knew the news that Shen Wei took over, but he didn't know that we had already set the ending for this bureau, and now he must be full of anxiety, thinking about how to dispose of those people who were imprisoned in the government so as to keep Meng Xiu. ”
"You mean, he will do something to those people?" Xin Yao said in surprise, if the people in the custody of the government are fine, it is more than ten lives, he will really take this dangerous move for the sake of a Meng Xiu?
"The dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, if he was determined to protect Meng Xiu, it was not impossible to deal with those people. It's a big deal, staging a fire to burn down the mansion, and then putting the blame on others. "It's not that he can't do it, even if the emperor thinks that he did it, there is no evidence, and he can't really make up his mind and kill him.
It's just that Zhuo Yucheng put down the teacup in his hand, how could he let him ruin his game so easily.
"Then what can I do? Those are all living people!" Unexpectedly, Mu Tiantuo could be so frustrated, disregarding human life, Xinyao secretly smacked him hard.
"I have my own way. The eldest prince wants to protect Meng Xiu, just to let him sit in the position of the secretary of the ministry, so that the people of the ministry can be used by him. Actually, it doesn't matter who is in that position, just listen to him, it's fine, isn't it. Zhuo Yucheng said slowly.
Xin Yao suddenly understood the meaning of his words, and asked, "Do you want to..."
He nodded: "That's right, I want Yang Ming to sit firmly in the Ministry of Officials, so that Mu Tiantuo no longer has the idea of moving Yang Ming." Didn't he want Fu Qingqing to persuade him, this time was a good opportunity. Zhuo Yucheng said.
"Then, are we going to the study now?, looking for Sister Fu?" Xin Yao said, then stood up and looked at Zhuo Yu Chengdao.
At this time, Pu Jia raised her head lying on her stomach, and the little bud on her head moved suddenly, and said in a sullen voice: "Boy, someone is here at the door." ”
When Qinglian heard this, she immediately closed her eyes and condensed, probed, and then said, "It's His Royal Highness the Great Prince." ”
Zhuo Yucheng straightened the hem of his clothes with his hands, got up slowly, and said to Xin Yao: "Let's go, I'm going to see the guests." He had already guessed that when he learned about this today, Mu Tiantuo would definitely come to Hua Wujian to find him, Mu Tiantuo was not a fool, he knew that Meng Xiu was difficult to protect, if it was really for Meng Xiu, it would be really worthless to provoke the emperor to be suspicious and disappointed, but if he abandoned him, how to explain to the Meng family.
While walking, Zhuo Yucheng's mind was spinning, since the eldest prince was so embarrassed, as a courtier, he would definitely make a contribution to solve his problems.
