Chapter 25: The Storm
A dim light, mixed with the sound of water waves churning and knocking, in a small secret room, Xiaoxi was lying groggily on a simple stone bed, on the opposite side of the bed sat a menstrual man with a mask and dressed in fine clothes, at this moment, a beautiful woman was kneeling in front of him in fear, but he did not have the slightest pity for the jade.
The masked man played with a medicine bottle in his hand, and his voice was cold: "Rouge, Huang Que said that you have always refused to kill Xiaoxi, and insisted on bringing her here, should you feel that you will hand over a useless person, and I will forgive you for missing again and again." ”
Rouge was so frightened that he couldn't help but shrink his body, and said in a trembling voice: "There are too many capable people around Bao Zheng, and every time Rouge is in a mission, he is destroyed at a critical moment, but Rouge has already thought of a foolproof plan, if it is not successful, Rouge will let the master fall." ”
"It's up to you to take all possible measures, now that your identity and face have been exposed, Bao Zheng has sent a sea fishing document to arrest you, I really can't think of any other way for you to do it except die?"
Rouge said unwillingly: "Master, Rouge must have a way, so he dared to ask the master to raise his noble hand, master, please see." ”
As he spoke, he took out a brocade box from his arms, opened the box, and there were two pills the size of a fingernail, Rouge picked up one and swallowed it without hesitation, and took out a mirror from his arms, hung his head, and kneaded his face in front of the mirror, only a cup of tea, when Rouge raised his head again, the masked man's hand playing with the porcelain bottle stopped instantly, and a face exactly the same as Xiaoxi appeared in front of him.
Rouge saw the performance of the masked man in her eyes, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, knowing that she had passed the life and death hurdle again, she said proudly: "This is the disguise pill, as long as you don't take the antidote after eating it, you can keep it like you are now, master, if Rouge mixes into Bao Zheng's side as Xiaoxi and waits for the opportunity to kill Bao Zheng, isn't it much more interesting than killing Zhanzhao or Xue Feifei?"
"Hahahaha..... "The masked man laughed mockingly, "Kill Bao Zheng? Rouge, you overestimate yourself." ”
Rouge said hurriedly: "Master, as far as I know, Xiaoxi and Xue Feifei have been living in Kaifeng Mansion during this time, and they are already very familiar with the people there, especially Xiaoxi, Bao Zheng seems to like the dim sum she makes very much, so Bao Zheng's diet during this period is often cooked by Xiaoxi himself." ”
The masked man said "oh" and said, "That's kind of interesting, but how do you know that?"
Rouge smiled slightly, took out a small and delicate silver bell in his hand, walked to the sleeping Xiaoxi, shook it a few times, and a series of crisp and pleasant bells sounded in the secret room, and when the sound gradually stopped, Xiaoxi slowly opened his eyes and got up to look at Rouge.
"This is...?" The masked man was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, "You used Gu magic on her?"
Rouge said, "Yes, only then can I completely control her." ”
The masked man said, "Do you know that people who are hit by Gu will not live for more than 3 months, and they will eventually be devoured by the Gu worms in their bodies. ”
Rouge looked at Xiaoxi fiercely and said, "As long as you can kill Bao Zheng and complete the master's plan, what is the point of dying a few people." ”
The masked man snorted coldly and said, "I didn't expect you to be so ruthless, I actually underestimated you in the past, but even if you pretend to be Xiaoxi, how can you explain to Bao Zheng how you escaped?"
Rouge glanced at Xiao Xi, who had a blank expression, and said, "Bao Zheng, Bai Yutang, those rats went around to inquire about my news, and I did as they wanted, let them catch me, and then take me and Xiao Xi back to Kaifeng Mansion together, so that I can stay in Kaifeng Mansion smoothly." ”
"Oh..... That's how it works, hmph, it's hard for you to come up with such a method," the masked man said, "That.... What are you going to do with Konishi?"
Rouge said: "Master, this is the reason why my subordinates didn't kill Xiaoxi immediately, I want Rouge to die in front of Bao Zheng, now that Yue Qi and Jia Ren have been arrested, I expect that they can't fight Bao Zheng, and they will eventually recruit all of them, as long as I die, Bao Zheng will definitely think that the case is over, and then, when he relaxes his guard, it is my chance to start." ”
The masked man already understood what she meant, and lazily got up from his chair and said to Rouge: "Remember, you only have this one chance, if you miss again, you don't have to come to see me again, you know what to do, and ..... A trace of murderous intent flashed in the masked man's eyes, and he looked at Rouge coldly and said, "When you see Yue Qi, there is no forgiveness for killing!"
After that, she left the dark room without looking back, Rouge was erected by the hair on her body that the masked man had just seen, she clenched her teeth, her eyes flashed with a cold chill, and she raised her hand and put the pill into Xiaoxi's mouth, and after watching Xiaoxi swallow it, she said to herself: "It's the last time, this time it's either you die or I die." ”
After Bao Zheng and his party returned to Kaifeng Mansion, there was not much time left from the emperor, he didn't care about resting, so he hurriedly found Prime Minister Wang Cheng to tell the ins and outs of the matter in detail, after Wang Chengxiang listened, he was shocked and angry in his chest, he always thought that Zhang Yao was a villain, but he didn't expect to be such a cruel and vicious person, and he was fortunate to insist on not marrying his daughter to him. After thinking about Yu for a while, Prime Minister Wang Cheng discussed with Bao Zheng, this Zhang Yao is Zhang Guifei's own brother, once the trial starts, that Zhang Guifei will do everything possible to protect her shortcomings, if there is no conclusive evidence, I am afraid it is really hard to say how things will end in the future.
When Bao Zheng heard this, he got up and said: "Zhang Yao's criminal evidence, the human evidence is Na Jia Ren and Yue Qi, and the physical evidence is the red flame red porcelain he confessed. ”
Wang Cheng saw that Bao Zheng was so sure of what he said, so he immediately asked Bao Zheng to write a good recital overnight, and he would face the saint together early tomorrow morning.
Besides, Zhang Yao entered the palace to celebrate Zhang Guifei's birthday, and by the way, he sent red flame red porcelain to his favor, and the emperor gave the royal seat in Zhang Guifei's splendid palace, and the three of them wanted to talk very happily, and the emperor also boasted that Zhang Yao was ingenious and capable, and he was able to find this rare red porcelain, and he was happy to invite Zhang Yao to stay in the palace for a few more days.
Zhang Yao began to be honored with Youyan, feeling that the emperor looked up to himself, and the days of soaring in the future would be just around the corner, but after a few days, he went to ask the emperor to resign, the emperor not only maybe, but also let him continue to stay in the palace for a few more days, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that things were not quite right, it is said that if the emperor appreciates himself, how can he not see him since that day? He also asked Zhang Guifei, Zhang Guifei was also confused, saying that the emperor had not come to her palace for several days since that day, both of them were shrewd people, and after a little total, they immediately came back to their senses, the emperor took a fancy to Zhang Yao, this is a disguised detention of Zhang Yao, but it is inconvenient to say it because of face.
Thinking about it this way, where can Zhang Guifei still sit still, and he urged Zhang Yao to ask where something went wrong, Zhang Yao thought about it, the only reason was that the red porcelain, but he couldn't tell Zhang Guirong the origin of the red porcelain, and in the face of Zhang Guifei's questioning, he couldn't tell him clearly.
Zhang Guifei is a smart person, what kind of material her brother is, she knows better than anyone else, she saw Zhang Yao's words flickering in her question, and when she mentioned red porcelain, she was vague, her face was full of nervousness, and she was nine points sure in her heart, the origin of this red porcelain was not very glorious.
But at this moment, since the emperor has intervened, it means that this matter can no longer be mixed, maybe the emperor is secretly investigating, thinking of this, Zhang Guifei couldn't help but shudder, looking at the brother in front of her, she was even more angry, so her tone of voice to Zhang Yao also became stern, and under her repeated questioning, Zhang Yao had to tell the matter as it was.
After Zhang Guifei heard this, she was angry and afraid, angry that Zhang Yao was so bold that she dared to blatantly kill people and seize treasures, and she didn't know how to give her the stolen goods as tribute, and even with her, she would be implicated, what I was afraid of was that the emperor had always been diligent and thrifty, and this time he had given himself a great honor to hold his birthday, but his brother actually committed such a big crime, and slapped the emperor's face, if he provoked Long Yan's anger, his efforts for so many years would be ruined in an instant.
She looked at the younger brother in front of her, who had been frightened, and wanted to let go, but she remembered her father's promise to take care of her brother for the rest of her life before he died, and her heart softened, after all, it was her own brother, how could she watch him go to the guillotine, how could she help.
However, how to help still has to take some thought, she thinks about it and feels that the key to the matter is to find out first, the emperor is locked up with his younger brother, but how to figure it out?
Here Zhang Guifei is calculating how to get the news from the emperor's mouth, over there, Bao Zheng and Wang Chengxiang have been in the imperial study and the emperor to inform Songjiang and his party of the investigation, in fact, Wang Chengxiang will be Bao Zheng wrote the fold to Renzong early in the morning, Renzong after reading it, his heart is already angry, after the early dynasty, he hurriedly announced the two of the imperial study deliberations, at this moment, Wang Chengxiang is righteously citing evidence to accuse Zhang Yao of his evil behavior, the angry emperor smashed the cup again, and slapped the table," Hmph, bold Zhang Yao, he is simply lawless, and he dares to do such a thing that destroys human nature, it is simply an unforgivable sin. ”
Bao Zheng observed his words and expressions, and saw that Renzong was so angry, and planned to add another fire, and directly sent Zhang Yao to the tiger's head, so he stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Zhang Yao's behavior like this not only left the word Wang Fa behind, but also damaged the image of the royal family among the people. ”
"Oh, what did Bao Qing say about this?" asked Renzong Tie with a blushing face.
"Back to the emperor, what Zhang Yao robbed is a rare treasure of time, how many people in this world have hollowed out their minds to get this thing, but now Zhang Yao has turned this treasure into stolen goods and sent it to the emperor's harem, if it is spread out, how will the people think of the emperor? People in the world will only think that it was the emperor who instigated Zhang Yao to take the treasure and have won the concubine with a smile, let me ask where is the face of the royal family? How should the emperor deal with himself in front of the hundred officials?"
"Bold," Renzong's eyes widened angrily, and he angrily threw the fold in front of him at Bao Zheng, "Bao Zheng, you dare to slander me like this, are you really impatient?"
Prime Minister Wang said secretly: Bao Zheng, Bao Zheng, you are not in such a hurry, this fire is burning, and you are not afraid of burning yourself. In the end, he still favored Bao Zheng, and when he saw that Renzong was angry, he hurriedly played a round and said: "Your Majesty, Bao Zheng is also worried about the emperor, so he doesn't choose to speak, and asks the emperor to calm his anger, and don't worry about him for the sake of the emperor." ”
Renzong snorted lightly, which can be regarded as giving Prime Minister Wang Cheng a face, in fact, he never knew in his heart that what Bao Zheng said was indeed reasonable, which was also what he was worried about, but this kind of mind was bluntly broken by Bao Zheng, but how could he not be angry?
Renzong pondered in his heart, as soon as his will came out, it was undoubtedly equivalent to sentencing Zhang Yao to death, and Zhang Guifei and Zhang Yao's sisters and brothers had a deep affection, and they would not ignore it.
If he kills her younger brother, according to Zhang Guifei's temperament, it may be difficult to stay with her in the future, thinking that although he Renzong has many beauties in the harem, there are only a few who can really enter his heart.
Now, although he knows that killing her brother who depends on her life is like taking half of her life, although he is reluctant to give up, he is the emperor, and the prince is still guilty of the same crime as the common people, not to mention the younger brother of a concubine, he must not ignore the law for personal reasons, besides.... The emperor glanced at Bao Zheng, who was standing with his eyebrows lowered and his head down, and sighed in his heart, even if he had the heart to let Zhang Yao go, some people would definitely not let him get his wish.
After Renzong made up his mind, he cleared his throat and said: "Bao Qing listens to the order, I order you to have full authority to try the red porcelain case, and no one is allowed to interfere in the Kaifeng Mansion case. ”
Bao Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, knelt on the ground to receive the decree of thanks, and exited the imperial study with Prime Minister Wang.
As soon as the two of them walked out of the imperial study, they saw Zhang Guifei coming from a distance with a group of people, it turned out that when Zhang Guifei first entered the palace, in order to get the holy favor, she actually sent her personal palace maid Ruyi to seduce Cui Gonggong beside Renzong, this Ruyi was also a person with some means, and he secretly communicated with Cui Gonggong when he came and went, and for a while the two were hot, Zhang Guifei often asked Ruyi to go to Cui Gonggong to inquire about the emperor's preferences, so that she could do what she liked.
This time, she concocted the same method, and still asked Ruyi to inquire about the news, Ruyi did not live up to expectations, pestering Cui Gonggong to inquire several times, Cui Gonggong finally couldn't resist her soft grinding and hard bubbles, so he told her that as soon as the dynasty ended this morning, the emperor left Bao Zheng and Wang Cheng's imperial study to discuss the matter, as for the specific content, he really didn't know, and the emperor did not leave anyone to serve.
After Ruyi came back, she told Zhang Guifei what Father-in-law Cui told her, the more Zhang Yao listened, the more panicked she became, and she faintly felt that it was not good, Zhang Guifei looked at her brother and had a premonition, she didn't care about comforting Zhang Yao, and hurried to the imperial study with Ruyi and other palace people.
As soon as she arrived at the door of the imperial study, she bumped into Bao Zheng and Wang Chengxiang coming out of the imperial study.
Bao Zheng saw that Zhang Guifei's face was sinking like water, and his eyes were angry at him, and he knew in his heart that most of them were interceding for Zhang Yao, he had been handling cases for many years, and he had always been iron-faced and selfless, and many imperial relatives had fallen into his hands.
Who knows, Zhang Guifei ignored him, and stopped him hard, helplessly, Bao Zheng had to respectfully salute the concubine, Zhang Guifei said in a strange voice: "Lord Bao's gift, this palace doesn't dare to accept it, look at Lord Bao's proud face, dare to get what he wants, and eradicate a thorn in the eye." ”
Bao Zheng said: "The concubine's words are wrong, in Bao Zheng's eyes, there is only legal principles, and there is no selfish feelings, how can he say a thorn in his eye? Bao Zheng's wish is nothing more than that one day there will be no more injustices in the world, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment." ”
"Hmph, it's nice to say, let's not talk darkly, Zhang Yao is my own brother, if you dare to touch him, I will be with you. Zhang Guifei suddenly lowered her voice and said a cruel word, and then returned to her normal voice and said, "Yes? Then the palace should take a good look at how you manage this injustice." After that, he didn't look at Bao Zheng and continued to walk towards the imperial study.
After Zhang Guifei walked away, Prime Minister Wang Cheng said to Bao Zheng: "Lord Bao, I'm afraid she already knows the truth of the matter, and the emperor will have a headache now." ”
Bao Zheng looked at the back of the concubine in the distance, and said categorically: "Depending on who she is, Bao Zheng will uphold justice to the end even if he fights this black gauze hat." ”
Zhang Guifei walked to the door of the imperial study and said to the father-in-law on duty: "As soon as the father-in-law of labor is tired, he will say that the palace has something important to see the emperor." ”
Coincidentally, it was Gonggong Cui who was on duty, he glanced at Ruyi behind Zhang Guifei, and knew the meaning of the concubine, so he looked around, and when he saw that no one was paying attention, he whispered: "Niangniang should go back, I don't know what Lord Bao said when he went in today, the emperor was angry and smashed the cup and slapped the table, the slave has served the emperor for so many years, and it is the first time he has seen the emperor lose his temper." ”
Zhang Guifei said with a crying voice: "This damn Bao Zheng is actually trying to force people to death, if this matter is not related to the life of the younger brother of the palace, how can the palace touch this mold? ”
"Niangniang, why do you bother, you also know the emperor's temper, the emperor has always advocated thrift, and governs the world with benevolence, even to those of us who are subordinates, and rarely say a word of heavy words, a little temper, at this time today, don't say that the emperor will not see you, even if he sees you, he will not have a good face, why hurt the relationship between you and the emperor in vain?"
"Gonggong Cui, the truth is understood in this palace, but ..... This palace can't see death without saving it, you also know the relationship between this palace and my younger brother, if he really has three long and two short, wouldn't he kill me?"
Father-in-law Cui sighed helplessly and said, "In this case, then please wait for a while, and the slave will go to report." ”
Not long after Grandpa Cui entered, he heard the emperor shouting loudly inside: "No, I don't see anyone, Cui Fugui, you are so big, you dare not listen to my words, what benefits did she give you, let you dare to disobey Zheng's words, get out of here." ”
As soon as the words fell, Cui Fugui was asked to trot out of it with a white face, trembling, crying with a face, and made a gesture of invitation to Zhang Guifei.
Seeing this, Zhang Guifei's heart trembled together, and she didn't care whether she would lose her manners, she suddenly shouted inside: "Your Majesty," and knelt outside the imperial study with a bang, crying and saying: "Your Majesty, the concubines don't know what they have done wrong, the emperor has avoided the concubines these days, if the concubines are at fault, the emperor will beat and scold, and the concubines will never complain, what does it mean to be so cold to the concubines?"
Zhang Guifei's voice was as tactful and crisp as a pechoin, and at this moment, because of her crying, people couldn't help but feel a sense of pity, but no matter how much she cried, there was always silence in the imperial study.
Zhang Guifei cried for a while, and when she saw that the emperor did not move, she changed her mind and said: "Your Majesty, the concubines know that the emperor is really annoyed by the concubines this time, but even if the emperor wants the concubines to die, he must let the concubines die to understand." ”
Zhang Guifei just cried and knelt at the door of the imperial study, no matter who came to persuade her, she followed a cadre of palace people, and also knelt on the ground with Ulala, the master cried, and they also cried, making an emperor's office miserable and miserable.
Renzong was disturbed by Zhang Guifei in the imperial study that he couldn't stand or sit, and he wanted to go out and scold her, but he couldn't bear it, and he always felt that her brother always owed her a little bit to her, but he let her toss like this, and where did he put his majesty, and where was the face of the Son of Heaven?
After thinking about it, Renzong sighed, walked out of the imperial study with a cold face, and said angrily to Zhang Guifei, who was kneeling on the ground: "Look at you like this, do you still have a little bit of a concubine's appearance? Why don't you get me up quickly, the imperial study is also a place for you to cry? I indulge you too much on weekdays, making you more and more unruly." ”
Zhang Guifei saw that the emperor was finally willing to come out to see her, and she was secretly happy in her heart, and when she heard the emperor reprimand herself, she said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, the concubine is wronged, and the concubine just wants to know why the emperor has ignored the concubine these days? What did the concubine do wrong?"
Renzong glanced at the group of people kneeling on the ground, and said coldly: "What do you all want to do? Cui Fugui, you are about to finish your errand? You can't even forget the rules of the palace? Do you still want me to find you to carry you back one by one? ”
When Gonggong Cui said this, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and he hurriedly got up and shouted to the kneeling palace people: "You are all deaf, haven't you heard what the emperor said? What are you all doing here stupidly, waiting to lose your head? Why don't you all go down and ..... quickly." ”
Renzong glanced at Zhang Guifei, who was still kneeling and sobbing, frowned impatiently, and said in a low voice: "Why are you still kneeling, don't let me in." After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and raised his legs into the imperial study.
Seeing that the goal was achieved, Concubine Zhang hurriedly stopped crying, and followed into the imperial study pitifully.
As soon as she came in, Zhang Guifei knelt down in front of Renzong and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine has served the emperor for many years, and I have never seen the emperor make such a big fire. ”
Renzong was already affectionate to her, at this time, seeing her crying eyes red and swollen, a delicate appearance of pear blossoms with rain, thinking that at this time the truth has nothing to do with her, how can he not sprinkle his anger on her, so thinking about it, the anger in the original stomach was extinguished by this cowardly appearance of the concubine.
Renzong stretched out his hand to help Zhang Guifei to his side, asked her to sit down, and said softly: "I'm just too busy to go to you these days, why did you make trouble in the imperial study? It's all because Zheng usually spoils you too much, and you are used to not knowing the height of the sky, and you don't want to think about it, you make such a fuss not only let the minions see jokes, but if this reaches the ears of the queen mother and treats you for the crime of dereliction, what should you do?"
Zhang Guifei said coquettishly: "The concubine is not afraid of other people's jokes, nor is she afraid of being reprimanded by the queen mother, the concubine is only afraid that the emperor will not tell the concubine if there is something, and treat the concubine as an outsider." ”
As soon as Renzong heard this, he knew that this concubine Zhang was here for Zhang Yao's business, and this time he had already begun to pave the way.
Renzong didn't want to directly expose her and embarrass her, so he asked pretendedly, "What does the concubine mean by this? When did I treat you as an outsider? Except for the affairs of the court, what do I not discuss with the concubine?"
"However, the emperor, the concubine heard from his younger brother that he wanted to go back out of the palace a long time ago, but the emperor didn't allow it, why is this?"
Renzong glanced at her and thought, 'Why is this, don't you know yet?' Playing stupid here is not just a request for it, alas..... That's it, that's it, and it's up to her to say it. ’
Thinking of this, Renzong pretended to be confused and said, "Yes, it's true that I won't let him go back, isn't it good to invite him to stay with you for a few more days?"
Zhang Guifei said: "The emperor's words are wrong, my brother is a relative, how can I always live in the palace, this is too unruly, it is better to let him out of the palace today, and the red porcelain, the concubine also wants to return it to his younger brother." “
"Oh, why, it's your brother's heart. ”
"Your Majesty, you have always admired diligence and thrift, never extravagant and wasteful in food and clothing, and your concubines are favored, so you should take the emperor as an example.
Renzong nodded and said: "Concubine Ai is so deeply aware of righteousness, I am very pleased, Concubine Ai knows, how did Zhang Yao get this red porcelain?"
When Zhang Guifei heard the emperor ask this, she couldn't help but chuckle in her heart, and said in her stomach: "What does the emperor mean by asking me this? It stands to reason that after Bao Zheng meets the emperor, he will always say something, but I don't know what the bag of sunspots said to the emperor, if he doesn't investigate anything, but only suspects what his brother has done, and now, I seem to tell the emperor everything, won't I hurt my younger brother? If I talk nonsense, I will definitely provoke Long Yan again, and then let alone my brother, even I am afraid that I will suffer. ”
Renzong saw that Zhang Guifei bowed her head and was silent, her eyes couldn't help but turn around, knowing that she must be thinking about how to reply to her words, and couldn't help but believe Bao Zheng's words a little more, and sighed secretly: Guifei, Guifei, how did you become such an empathetic person to this bastard brother, now, I only hope that you can understand the righteousness, don't do anything that makes me sad, and don't waste my affection for you.
Renzong coughed deliberately, and said to Zhang Guifei, who was still entangled: "Guifei, what's wrong with you, why didn't you answer what I asked you?"
Seeing the emperor's urging, Concubine Zhang had no choice but to say vaguely: "The concubine heard from my brother that this red porcelain was given to him by someone else." ”
"Oh, who is so generous to give such a treasure to your brother?"
"This ...... The concubines don't know, or the concubines will go back and ask for the emperor?"
Renzong glanced at the concubine in disappointment, nodded and said, "It's okay, you can ask clearly." ”
The two of them sat silently, each thinking about their own thoughts, Zhang Guifei wanted to say a few words for her younger brother, but she couldn't guess the emperor's thoughts, and she didn't dare to speak rashly, so she had to bow her head and play with the Yingluo on her body.
The emperor was stunned for a while, and finally looked at Zhang Guifei as if he had made up his mind: "Guifei, since you want Zhang Yao to leave the palace, I will allow him to go out today, this red porcelain is a treasure in the world, it is really not suitable for you to stay by your side, so you can return this thing to Zhang Yao and order him to take it out of the palace together." ”
When Zhang Guifei heard this, she hurriedly jumped up and wanted to kneel down to thank her, but the emperor stretched out his hand to stop her and said, "Don't thank you, if you have nothing to do, go back first, I still have government affairs to do." ”
After that, he called Grandpa Cui to come in and sent the concubine out.
As soon as the two left, Renzong immediately lowered his face, asked Zhan Zhao, who was on duty in the palace, to find Zhan Zhao, who was on duty in the palace, and ordered him to leave the palace immediately to inform Bao Zheng that Zhang Yao would leave the palace today, and let him prepare early.
When Zhan Zhao heard Renzong's arrangement, he knew that he had made up his mind, and after receiving the order, he was just about to retreat, but suddenly thought that no one was watching Zhang Yao's side, so he knelt down again and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers have the courage to borrow 2 father-in-law from the emperor, and let them wait for Zhang Yao outside the palace gate, and wait for him to leave the palace, so that he can follow him to see where he goes, so that Lord Bao can take people." ”
Renzong thought for a while, and said with a smile: "It's still the Zhou Dao you thought of, I actually forgot about this one," so he ordered someone to find 2 little eunuchs for Zhanzhao, and after Zhanzhao thanked him, he hurriedly walked out of the palace with 2 people.
Besides, as soon as Zhang Guifei left the imperial study, she went straight to her Yushu Palace, at this time, Zhang Yao was jumping up and down in the palace in a hurry, uneasy, and when she saw Zhang Guifei coming back, she hurriedly asked: "Sister, why have you been there for so long, how are things? What did the emperor say?"
Zhang Guifei shook her head gloomily and said: "I don't know, I met Bao Zheng at the door of the imperial study, and I have warned him not to beat your idea, but with my understanding of Bao Zheng, if he really targets you, I'm afraid it won't be that simple." ”
"What about the emperor? What did the emperor say?"
"Your Majesty, the Emperor refused to see me at first, but then he couldn't help but beg me again and again before letting me enter the imperial study, but he didn't mention anything to me, but only asked me, how did you get this red porcelain?"
"And what do you say?"
"The emperor asked so suddenly, I had to say that it was given to you by someone else, anyway, you also said that it was given to you by Yue Qi, in case something happens, you will definitely give it away, and Bao Zheng can't do anything about you. ”
"Sister, do you think the emperor already knows the whole thing?"
"Even if you know, as long as the emperor doesn't pursue it, you will be fine, the most troublesome thing now is that Jia Ren, in case he is arrested and confesses to you, how can this be good?"
"As long as I deny it, I don't know this person, there is no evidence, and I can't do anything to the bag of sunspots, sister, the key is the emperor, he can't face the bag of sunspots. ”
"Well, I know, don't worry, in a few days, I will go to the emperor to probe the wind and see what the bag of sunspots has found, by the way, the emperor has agreed to let you out of the palace, but I can't keep this red porcelain, you hurry up and take the red porcelain back to Songjiang to see, if Yue Qi is fine, you will return this thing to him, remember, don't be greedy for money, understand?"
Zhang Yao nodded solemnly and said: "Sister, don't worry, I don't dare to come nonsense this time, you have to take care of yourself in the palace, the queen and the queen mother are not fuel-efficient lamps." ”
Seeing that her younger brother still cared about her at this time, Zhang Guifei couldn't help but be moved and her eyes reddened, and the sister and brother comforted each other again, and Zhang Guifei let Ruyi take Zhang Yao out of the palace quietly.
