Chapter 301: A Conspiracy
Mu Yunge took the letter and quickly scanned it.
She looked at the card, her face suddenly turned solemn, and she handed the letter to Wei Shi: "Wei is Wei Quan's business." ”
"Wei Quan?" Wei Shi chuckled: "Did he not help it and shot at me?" ”
Mu Yunge nodded: "Now that the Zhao family has fallen, and the courtiers have also fallen, there are very few people who can help him ascend to the throne." Seeing you show your face more and more in front of His Majesty, how could he bear it? ”
Wei Shi read ten lines at a glance, and laughed more and more ridiculously: "There are only thirty people, and my third brother looks down on me too much!" ”
"Last time, it is estimated that Wei Quan thought that it was our luck, and it was you and Wei Yunyi who fought side by side, so that they could support themselves until Nangong came, and he dared to underestimate the enemy so much." Mu Yunge looked at him mischievously: "Wei Quan is ready for the wolf's den and tiger's den, if so...... Why don't we go at all? ”
"You're going to stay with me?" Wei Shi's eyes lit up and he rubbed over to her.
Mu Yunge nodded, and instructed Pei Xin Peiying: "Pei Ying, you go to the main courtyard to return to the old lady, just say that His Royal Highness is drunk and will rest in the guest room tonight." Pei Xin, you go and sort out the Green Bamboo Pavilion and give His Royal Highness King Yu a rest. ”
The two girls responded, quickly stepped back, and went to clean up the room.
Mu Yunge picked up the pen and replied, handed it to Hongyi and brought it back to Qiao Fengqi. When Hongyi came back, she didn't expect her to bring back another letter: "Miss, Childe said, it will be calculated." ”
Mu Yunge and Wei Shi both turned their heads strangely and looked at the red clothes. Qiao Fengqi's meaning is very clear, he wants to take this opportunity to deal with Wei Quan, but Wei Quan is now at the end of his rope, he has no trust status in the eyes of Emperor Wu, and there is no threat to their plans, so why do they continue to deal with him and waste this spirit?
The two of them opened the letter together, and after reading it, Wei Shi burned the letter to ashes with a candle flame.
Looking at the black powder, Wei Shi said happily: "Reincarnation Zhuge is true. Fortunately, this person is a friend and not an enemy, otherwise, there will be endless troubles! ”
Mu Yunge nodded in agreement, Qiao Fengqi was terrifying, she had already learned it in her previous life, so on the day she was reborn, she made up her mind that she would definitely get him!
Mu Yunge replied to the book again and approved Qiao Fengqi's plan.
That night, Wei Shi rested in Luzhuxuan and had a good night's sleep. Mu Yunge was also recuperating in the Ning Bi Pavilion, waiting for the storm of the second day.
Early the next morning, the people from the Yuwang Mansion hurriedly came to Mu's house, waiting to see Wei Shi. The emperor is not in a hurry, and when Wei Shi came out slowly, the housekeeper of the Yuwang Mansion was circling in front of the Mu Mansion, and his forehead was full of cold sweat: "Your Highness, why did you come out?" Something is wrong! The emperor summoned him, and the father-in-law who announced the decree had been waiting in front of the palace for a long time. ”
"What's the big deal?" Wei Shi asked knowingly.
The housekeeper said: "Last night, the county lord returned from the Lin family and was assassinated, and the inscription of our palace was found from the weapons left at the scene. His Majesty was furious, and His Royal Highness Xuan entered the palace to confront him! ”
Wei Shi smiled faintly: "That's nothing, just go." ”
With that, Wei Shi lifted the curtain, boarded the carriage, and told the coachman to go home. The housekeeper hurriedly stopped and said, "Your Highness, the front door is all guarded by forbidden soldiers, and the slaves are running from the back door, go through the back door." ”
"Not necessarily." Wei Shi waved his hand: "Just go to the front door." ”
The housekeeper couldn't resist him, and followed him with fear along the way, but Wei Shi seemed to be fine, still closing his eyes and recuperating in the carriage. The carriage swayed leisurely, and soon crossed most of the street from this end of Suzaku Street, and came to the front of King Yu's Mansion. The forbidden army guarding at the gate was taken aback when they suddenly saw Wei Shi get out of the carriage.
"Father-in-law, I didn't go back to the house last night, I came a little late, so I kept you waiting." Wei Shi stepped forward and politely stuffed a silver ticket to the little eunuch who announced the decree: "Declare the decree." ”
The little eunuch's face suddenly bloomed, and he put away the silver ticket, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Yu is polite!" ”
It was a subordinate of Wang Jian who led the forbidden army to come, and he was angry with Wei Shi in his heart, and he couldn't see such a scene, so he reminded coldly: "Father-in-law, Your Majesty is still waiting!" ”
The little eunuch was interrupted by him and Wei Shi's reminiscence, gave him a blank look, and then took out the holy decree and read it.
Wei Shi received the holy decree, and when he got up, his face was already a little pale: "The Criminal Department is really getting more and more hasty in handling the case, with a few arrows, such a big charge will be detained on my Wei Shi's head." Even if my father doesn't make paper, I have to enter the palace! As he spoke, he flicked his sleeves, took a horse from the hands of the forbidden army, turned over and rushed towards the palace.
As soon as he left, the forbidden army immediately reorganized the army and escorted the inner prisoner to the palace.
Emperor Wu went to the Guangming Hall when he announced Wei, as soon as he came, Emperor Wu smelled the strong smell of wine on his body, frowned and sniffed, the anger in his heart seemed to be extinguished by something instantly, and asked softly: "Shi'er, where were you yesterday?" ”
"Back to my father, Erchen accompanied Yun Ge for a while yesterday, and it happened that Shaoqing was also there, so he drank a few more drinks at Mu's house." Wei Shi replied: "Yun Ge saw that I was drunk, so he cleaned up the Mu family's guest room and let me sleep all night. ”
Emperor Wu obviously didn't believe it, and looked at the inner supervisor who announced the decree.
The inner eunuch immediately stepped forward and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, Your Highness is telling the truth, the servant arrived at the Yuwang Mansion, and after waiting for a while, His Highness came from the Mu Mansion in a carriage, full of alcohol, and he didn't even change his clothes, so he went directly into the palace." Father, is Jin'er seriously injured? ”
"It's skin trauma." Emperor Wu shook his head: "Just raise it for a few days." ”
He leaned forward and said, "Shi'er, when you came, my father-in-law also told you, those weapons are engraved with the words of your mansion, do you have anything to say?" ”
"Father, if it was really the son-in-law who hurt people, would the son-in-law be stupid enough to use the weapon engraved on his mansion? Isn't this the place where there are three hundred taels of silver? Wei Shi sneered: "Are these people the emperor who can't even see this conspiracy?" Joke! ”
Emperor Wu was stunned for a moment, then nodded and asked, "In your opinion, who did this?" ”
"Erchen doesn't know. Erchen has not offended anyone recently. Wei Shi thought about it, and then looked at Emperor Wu: "My father will be the master of the son, and the son-in-law will wait." ”
Emperor Wu's answer to this scoundrel was obviously very weak, and he was too busy to go, but he forgot the original intention of coming in when he was Xuanwei. However, if he is not angry, it does not mean that he will completely clear his suspicions about Wei Shi. If it was in the past, when he doted on Wei Shi, he would probably ask his opinion, but after yesterday, as soon as he saw Wei Shi, he always looked up with the face of Concubine De, and there was a little bit of bad taste in his heart. After Wei Shi finished speaking, he waved his hand and asked Wei Shi to retreat.
Wei Shi came out of the palace and saw the new Dali Temple Secretary Song Yaming, the two were old acquaintances, nodded and hurriedly passed by.
In King Li's mansion, Wei Quan got the news in the middle of the night that none of the people he sent met Wei Shi, but Nangong Jin was attacked, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
However, before I had time to think about it, I heard that Emperor Wu had announced that Wei Shi had entered the palace. He sent someone to inquire about the news, and heard that the assassin who assassinated Nangong Jin had the words "Yuwangfu" written on the weapons in his hand, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed. He knew that Wei Shi and Nangong Jin had always had a good relationship, and it was impossible to assassinate her, but he had some luck in his heart after all. What if the two suddenly turn out to be at odds for unknown reasons? Or, someone like himself has long been unhappy with Wei Shi?
Now isolated and desperate, he has the illusion of an alliance.
King Li happily waited for half a morning, waiting to see Wei Shi unlucky, but he waited left and right, and did not wait for the news of Emperor Wu's anger, the whole person was a little dazed, and there was a little panic.
This feeling lasted until five days later.
On the seventh day of the first lunar month, according to the practice of previous years, during the entire New Year, civil and military officials do not have to go to court, and if they have something to play, they can hand over the fold on the seventh day of the first month. As soon as the door of the seventh palace was opened, Song Yaming, the secretary of Dali Temple, and An Bohou, the secretary of the criminal department, couldn't wait to hand over the excerpts of the joint performance.
This fold was handed up layer by layer, I don't know what happened, and at noon, Emperor Wu suddenly issued an order to recruit Wei Shi into the palace again.
When Wei Shi came out, he held the holy decree in his hand, and Emperor Wu ordered him to thoroughly investigate the assassination of Nangong Jin.
Wei Shi received the order, but he was not in a hurry to immediately go to the Criminal Department to interrogate the witnesses, but went back to the Yuwang Mansion directly. Mu Yunge was waiting there, and as soon as the two met, Wei Shi said: "Qiao Feng was very accurate, and handed over those two witnesses to the Criminal Department, and Song Yaming and An Bohou knocked out a lot of things from their mouths. My father really asked me to be the chief judge, this time, I must let Wei Quan no longer have the slightest threat! ”
"You have to be careful." Mu Yunge sorted out his big hand: "Although Empress Zhao is not liked by Her Majesty now, her foundation is still there, this matter has touched the secret in her heart, and she will definitely do whatever it takes to stop you." ”
"Can she stop it?" Wei Shi sneered: "If she is a smart person, she should be hanged in her middle palace as a white silk!" ”
Mu Yunge was gloomy, yes, if Empress Zhao was conscious, she should apologize for herself when Yun Rao jumped off Jiuyao Mountain!
Mother's revenge, mother doesn't revenge, she will revenge!
Mu Yunge raised his head and looked at Wei Shi fixedly: "Then act according to the plan." Qiao Fengqi's elites have all been dispatched, and this time we are bound to win. ”
"You have to be careful, too. They can't move me, and they're going to shoot you. Wei Shi held her hand, put it on his lips and kissed it lightly, looking at her with soft and pity: "You are my lifeline, I only have you." ”
Mu Yunge nodded heavily, and watched him leave the palace and go to the Criminal Department.
When Wei Shi's car left the distance, she put on her cloak and boarded the car from the back door of the palace. She closed her eyes and rubbed her eyebrows, according to the time Qiao Fengqi said, the night of the Lantern Festival will be another night that many people will not be able to sleep. She has to protect herself, and she must not become Wei Shi's weakness!
The carriage went around and around, but did not return home immediately, but drove into Qiao Fengqi's Zhuangzi.
Now, with the marriage contract between Pei Xin and Qiao Fengqi, the Mu family's carriage enters and exits this splendid village, which is reasonable in the eyes of outsiders, but there is not much criticism.
Qiao Fengqi personally went out to greet her and helped her get out of the car, Tsing Yi had already brought a brazier and put it in the hall, as soon as the two sat down, they felt warm.
"Wei Shi received the holy decree, this matter will have a result soon, doesn't it matter to you over there, after all, ......" Mu Yunge looked at him and his gaze softened: "That involves you and your mother." ”
