Chapter Eighty-Eight: Rescuing the Minister of the Protector of the Nation
"Niangniang, Niangniang, I was worried in my heart, and quietly ran to Yufeng Palace to take a look, Miss was wronged! I was imprisoned with King Pingdong, what should I do!"
Xin'er rushed in, closed the door and said a series of words. With an anxious face, he looked at Shu Zhaoyi, who was reading at night.
After Shu Zhaoyi closed the book, she calmly looked at her sweaty heart, and asked softly, "But it's because of the shaking." ”
"Yes, it is said that the dead Princess Zheng is holding a gold bead scattered on the step shake in her hand, and the step shake is still under the young lady, what should I do......"
After Xin'er finished speaking, she finally looked at Shu Zhaoyi ignorantly, and quietly asked, "Niangniang, how do you know?"
Shu Zhaoyi chuckled silently, got up and covered the bed curtain, glanced back at her dazed heart and said, "Go to sleep, I have my own way tomorrow." ”
"So today, is there any way to save Miss. Xin Er asked anxiously.
"There are also ......," Shu Zhaoyi lowered her head, her long hair was scattered to her waist, and she raised her eyes, "It's just that I want to go again tomorrow." ”
Xin Er was anxious, stood behind Shu Zhaoyi and hurriedly asked, "Why, Niangniang." The young lady is now suffering from a fever and going to prison, which must be very painful!"
"How can you be hated if you don't suffer from it. Shu Zhaoyi combed her hair and looked in the bronze mirror, reflecting the indifference on her face.
"Mother's ......"
"You don't have to say anything about this, I know it in my heart, you go down. ”
"Yes, Niangniang......" Xin'er didn't understand what Shu Zhaoyi meant, but she didn't dare to ask again, so she had to withdraw from the door helplessly.
Bang.
Shu Zhaoyi was still combing her hair, and suddenly heard that the door that had just been closed was vigorously pushed open.
"Xin'er, I said, don't ask again!" Shu Zhaoyi was slightly angry, and before she turned her head to look, she saw Dong Chufan in the bronze mirror standing behind her with an angry face.
"Fan'er?" Shu Zhaoyi turned to look at Dong Chu and smiled, "I also went to play with Kelan today, where did you go, did you have fun?" ”
Dong Chufan stood on the ground, looking at Shu Zhaoyi silently, and his face was angry.
"Why, Kelan has made you unhappy again. Shu Zhaoyi got up and walked to Dong Chufan's side and went to pull Dong Chufan.
"Why didn't the mother save Xi Huan!"
Dong Chufan ripped off his sleeves, glanced his eyes to the side, panting slightly, and didn't look at Shu Zhaoyi.
Shu Zhaoyi's hand stopped, slowly fell, and looked at Dong Chufan's appearance, a layer of thinness stained the tail of his eyebrows.
Shu Zhaoyi didn't respond, only sat back in front of the bronze mirror, and said in a dissatisfied tone, "The mother concubine is sleepy, you can go to sleep too, and you have to study tomorrow." ”
"Mother, if you don't save Xi Huan, the sons will go to their father's palace to bow down now. "Then he walked out.
"Fan'er, you are presumptuous. Shu Zhaoyi said coldly.
"Mother!" Dong Chufan knelt on the ground, and his tone became earnest, "Mother, Xi Huan was imprisoned, and she still has a fever, if she dies in prison, the mother concubine will have no daughter!"
"There is your second brother Pingdong Wang in the prison to take care of, what do you have to worry about?" Shu Zhaoyi drank.
"After all, the second brother can't do a lot of things in prison, and only when we are outside can we rescue Xi Huan, mother, please, you just said that there must be a way, you can save Xi Huan, how can she endure the pain of prison. Dong Chufan's expression darkened, and he felt distressed when he thought of Qing Xihuan suffering in prison.
"It's a good thing for Fan'er to care about her sister as an older brother, but if you care too much, people will inevitably think cranky, Fan'er still has to do things in a disciplined way, don't follow your own temperament, this is not what a husband does. Shu Zhaoyi stood up and walked back to Dong Chufan's side, seeing that Dong Chufan was anxious, she squatted down and patted Dong Chufan's shoulder.
"Then do you want to help Huan'er?"
"Of course!"
"Mother told you, it's too late today to do it, you have to ......do it like this tomorrow," Shu Zhaoyi whispered a few words in Dong Chufan's ear, and Dong Chufan nodded solemnly after listening.
"Mother, can you really save Xi Huan in this way?" Dong Chufan looked puzzled and worried.
"Don't worry, I believe in the mother, and there is ......" Shu Zhaoyi put the comb in front of the bronze mirror, looked at Dong Chufan's worried face, and said seriously, "In the future, I will call Sister Huan'er, and always remember that you are brothers and sisters." ”
"Yes......" Dong Chu Fan was unwilling, but he was helpless, in short, he knew that he could save Qing Xihuan, so he was relieved.
......
He Hui entered the Shangshu Hall and angrily threw a large pile of political papers, pacing to dissipate his anger, but he couldn't go on.
"You say!" He Hui angrily pointed to his father-in-law, and Ming's father-in-law shook his body and bowed, "The slave doesn't dare to say anything." ”
"Say, don't say kill you. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, the slave thinks that Miss Qing will not kill Princess Zheng......" Father-in-law Ming grinned and responded in fear.
"Then who do you think?" He Hui raised his eyes.
"The slave doesn't know, the slave doesn't know even if he dies!" Ming Gonggong knelt down in fear and buried his head on the ground.
He Hui sighed loudly, yes, I don't know, why bother the slave.
"Get up. He Hui pinched his eyebrows and sat down.
"Your Majesty, take a break, this is not a big deal, don't get tired. Gonggong Ming got up and sighed beside He Hui.
"Hmm...... Cheng Qi said that there was a flood in the front that was scorching and difficult to treat, and there were dead people who did not distinguish the real murderer, which called me how to rest assured, Concubine Xian's father Wu Chu, Qing Xihuan's father Qingyuan, which one of them offended me again, speechless in the face of the people of Yangzhou, and unable to govern the trivial matters of the harem...... Why am I so......"
He Hui sighed and showed sadness, and the Ming Gonggong who called Tian Tea was sad, and said again and again, "Your Majesty, what did you say, it's not your fault, since ancient times, which emperor can have the best of both worlds, both inside and outside, there are suffering, you do your best for the court, and the harem is also wet with rain and dew, you are tired of hard work, why do you still say such things sadly, don't say it." ”
"Hey!" He Hui held his forehead, exhausted.
"Your Majesty, General Qingyuan asks to see you!"
Just when He Hui had a headache, the guards at the outer gate came to report.
"No, no. He Hui's eyebrows furrowed even more, and he felt that at this moment, Qingyuan had nothing else to do, except for the fact that his daughter Qing Xihuan was in prison, what else could it be in the middle of the night.
"Yes!" the guard left with a shout outside the door, but after a moment he knelt outside the hall to report.
"Reporting to the emperor, General Qingyuan said that this matter is urgent, if the emperor does not see, blood will be splashed outside the Shangshu Palace. ”
"Hey!" He Hui angrily threw his teacup and immediately said to the guard, "Go!
Gonggong Ming hurriedly picked up the teacup, and ordered the servant next to him to wipe the tea, and at this time Qingyuan had already entered the door and knelt on the ground.
"The minister carries the evidence of the list of corrupt officials in Yangzhou sent by Zhou Yunkai, the imperial historian, at the risk of death, see the emperor!"
"What?" He Hui was shocked, and after being stunned for a moment, he hurriedly walked down the small steps in the hall, took the cloth in Qingyuan's hand with his own hands, and unfolded it to see.
It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, you will be shocked when you see it.
"If it's really the emperor who is far away, let them all go to the sky!" He Hui was furious with a cloth in his hand, his hands trembled, and he was excited. was so frightened that everyone in front of the palace knelt down.
"Please ask the emperor to learn clearly, punish corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and return peace to Yangzhou!" Qingyuan said sadly.
"Okay, okay, good, good, Aiqing, okay!" He Hui didn't know whether he was happy or sad, and his expression was weird. I am glad that this flood can be managed, but I am sad that this corrupt official has emerged in an endless stream, more than imagined, and even bigger, and it is inevitable to be sad.
"I am worthy of being a Qing general, and I am worthy of being a Qing general! The flood in Yangzhou has been saved! I will thoroughly investigate and dismiss my post in a few days, and I will definitely pull out a nest of snakes and rats and uproot them!
He Hui patted Qingyuan's shoulder and sighed, but when he saw Qingyuan kneeling on the ground again, his face was full of excitement and shouted, "Your Majesty! This is a secret report sent by Lord Zhou desperately to send the minister eight hundred miles to the court, and the minister has nothing to do but hope that His Majesty will send troops to rescue Lord Zhou and return to the court!"
"How is Zhou Yunkai?" He Hui was stunned and looked at Qingyuan.
"I don't know, I'm afraid it's nine deaths!" Qingyuan looked painful.
"Qingyuan listens to the order!" He Hui stood up and looked up at the sky, and shouted loudly.
"The last general!"
"I ordered you to immediately lead five thousand elite fast horses to Yangzhou to meet the rescue of Zhou Yunkai, the minister of the country, and hand over the talisman to you, and the checkpoints are not allowed to stop, God blocks and kills God, and Buddha blocks *, it is bound to ensure that Zhou Yunkai is safe and sound and sent back to Zi'an!"
"Your Majesty is wise!" Qingyuan bowed and shed tears. tremblingly, he took the talisman from He Hui's hand.
"The last general orders to say goodbye!" Qingyuan got up and left quickly.
"Wait!"
He Hui raised his head, looked at Qingyuan, and said solemnly, "There is also an 'important item', bring it with you." ”
