Chapter 366: The Quarrel Started
The upright tall man didn't seem to realize the ambiguity of the word "pick-up", and although he looked disgusted, he still cleared the empty seat in the pile of books that could accommodate two people.
Shangguan Li sat down unceremoniously.
Catching a glimpse of a half-cool pot of hot water on the low table, she took out a handful of small, green grass from her bosom and asked as she crumpled it and added it to the water.
"What do you want to ask?"
Gao Yong watched her movements, and didn't see anything Mingtang from it.
"The county lord only needs to tell me everything he knows, everything that may be related to spider incense."
Shangguan Li finished kneading the grass and began to hold the kettle up and down and left and right again.
"That's a long story, does Lord Gao have this time?"
Gao Yong wanted to reply confidently as usual.
"Of course there is, even if the county lord says yes."
But now he's really short of time.
"How?"
As soon as Shangguan Li raised his eyes, he saw Gao Yong's indescribable face, was he really right?
"It's true."
Gao Yong said with a bitter face.
"The county lord may not know that the situation in the court may be more urgent than you imagined, otherwise Your Majesty would not be so distressed today."
"What big move did King An make? Drink? ”
Gao Yong glanced suspiciously at the cold water that Shangguan Li poured out of the teapot, the original clarity was dyed with a faint green shadow, and there was a thin layer of leaf residue at the bottom.
Can you drink this thing?
"Oh yes."
Shangguan Li remembered something, and took out a small bottle of honey from his arms.
"I almost forgot the most important thing, I just asked Dr. Li to get it."
As she spoke, she dug out a small spoonful and added it to the teacup in front of Gao Yong.
"Try?"
Although Gao Yong couldn't think of any difference between this and sugar water, for the sake of Shangguan Li's face, it was difficult to resist the enthusiasm, so he still reluctantly took a sip.
"Huh?"
The look of disgust on his face froze, and his eyebrows widened.
"What kind of water is this, sweet and sour, but it tastes good."
Shangguan Li smiled.
"The simple version of the lemonade...... Mr. Gao hasn't answered my question yet. ”
Lemonade...... Strange name, but after drinking half a glass, his mood was rarely much more relaxed. Seeing Shangguan Li ask, he nodded.
"His Royal Highness King An is estimated to be determined to target the Prime Minister this time......"
Since the news of Shangguan Li's incident spread, there has been no calm in the court in the past two days.
The day after she entered the palace, King An put this matter out with great fanfare in the early dynasty, and the core concept was one: the Prime Minister's Mansion abused the county lord.
However, Shangguan Xun also denied it. On the morning of the second day, Shangshu of the Ministry of War revealed that Shangguan Xun had secretly bribed the army, and Shangguan Xun almost hit his head on the pillar to prove his innocence.
In the early court yesterday, King Yu also understood that King An was now trying his best to pull Shangguan Xun off the horse, so even if he made up nonsense, he had to pour dirty water on him.
On this day, Shangguan Xun did not defend himself, but went against the norm and directly began to impeach a minister of King An's faction.
This counterattack is out of control.
King Yu and King An seemed to be facing the two dogs who had been talking about their tongues for many years, and suddenly tore a thin layer of "brother, friend, brother and brother" skin on their faces, and began to bite each other.
All kinds of dirty water and small tricks on both sides emerged in an endless stream, and some cannon fodder with insufficient official positions were pushed down like this, and everyone in the court was suddenly in danger.
Especially this morning, the two highnesses quarreled in front of the emperor, and the reasons used were of course the old things about Chen Sesame and rotten grain, but what they were fighting for, the people in the court knew it.
The emperor's heart is even clearer.
The emperor, who was so annoyed by the noise, found him alone yesterday and explained the matter. And he told that it must be done as soon as possible.
"As soon as possible?"
That's too vague, isn't it?
Gao Yong sighed.
"If it were normal, of course I wouldn't have to be in such a hurry. But if you look at it in conjunction with your situation......"
As soon as he said this, Shangguan Li immediately understood.
In the final analysis, the cause of this matter is still her. Now the Tai Hospital has not only confirmed that she has indeed been poisoned by spider incense, but also has even prepared an antidote.
When her face really starts to improve because of this so-called antidote, the emperor will have to give an explanation to the world.
Because this matter has not only stirred up a storm in the court, but also spread among the people of the capital.
Today's emperor prides himself on being a wise monarch and wants to do a great cause that will last for thousands of years, of course, he will not ignore the aspirations of the people.
Gao Yong saw this clearly, so he hurriedly came to Shangguan Li to confirm the situation.
"So please ask the county lord to pick up the important ones, long story short."
Shangguan Li nodded in understanding, and after raising his head and drinking a large glass of lemonade, he roughly told the story of the original body when he was ten years old.
It's just that he hid the cause of Qi Yi's death, and he didn't even mention a word about the "master" behind Zhang Yuanniang. She just told the story of ten years ago from the perspective of the original ten-year-old child.
Because if she revealed those things, would she be alarmed? With a mediocre mind, it is estimated that you will soon doubt: since you all know that those people are suspicious, how can you only doubt your face until now?
Shangguan Li didn't bother to repeat what happened in the morning.
Although Gao Yong asked her to make a long story short, he asked a lot of questions halfway.
is not only to understand the events of the year, but also to knock on the side whether what she said is true or false.
is worthy of being the secretary of the criminal department, and he can control the only pure land that is not involved in party disputes in the heavy land of the six departments, and his ability is definitely good.
However, Shangguan Li's whole person was the words "not leaking" in capital letters, and Gao Yong's problems were resolved one by one, and the two drank two large pots of lemonade halfway.
Li Zhan also came to take a pot away.
And so it came to the twilight of the day.
It wasn't until the wind blew outside the window that it was not normally cool that Gao Yong realized that it seemed to be raining outside again.
Shangguan Li estimated that the rainy season in the capital might be advanced, and the leaves were swaying slightly, brewing a heavy rain that was destined not to be silent.
"It's time for me to be careful."
Gao Yong moved his stiff shoulders.
"Well, yes."
Shangguan Li echoed unconcernedly.
Gao Yong looked at Shangguan Li, who was holding his chin with one hand, and there was indescribable pity and sorrow in his heart.
He now basically knows how she went step by step from a little girl who didn't know the suffering of the world and was favored by her mother to a woman who was still disfigured in the back mountain.
