Deeply, Mrs. Xu looked at the emperor.

The emperor leaned on the back of the chair, his face tense and displeased.

Fan Taibao coughed lightly, broke the dull atmosphere, and said, "Since there is an old lady in Xu Guo who scolds him, why don't you send someone to the Taiping Mansion?" ”

"Who to send?" Mrs. Xu asked rhetorically, "As soon as the fire burns and the water soaks, the old man might as well dissect his heart first." ”

Huang Taishi looked at the emperor's color, and played a round with a hard head: "Three divisions, red-clothed guards, imperial guards, where do you choose the boss?" ”

"That's still the Red Guard," Mrs. Xu said, "Lin Xiaozi is annoying, don't cheat people." The old man can trust him, and the emperor should be able to trust him too, right? ”

The emperor's forehead was full of green tendons.

How could he say that he didn't believe the commander of the Red Guard, whom he had appointed himself?

The emperor raised his chin at Gonggong Xu.

The Xu Gong Guild decided and withdrew to summon Lin Fan.

Lin Fan was waiting in the yamen.

He did not follow him to the imperial study when he retired from the court, and this matter was not suitable for him to be too active.

The emperor called, and it is appropriate to come again.

Mrs. Xu said: "It's hard for you to go to Taiping Mansion and get the letter." ”

Lin Fan pretended to think about it, and then said: "The Taiping Mansion said that it is not close, and it will take three or four days to come back if it is fast and fast, day and night." Boss, what is the letter to the family, there are back and forth, did Lord Xu reply to you in office? ”

"Returned," at this mention, Mrs. Xu remembered, "The family letters are all stored in my study, and the steward knows how to collect them, so let him find them for you." ”

Lin Fan said again: "Have you mentioned it to anyone else?" ”

"Xu Chen, my eldest son, the letter is also in the study." Mrs. Xu said.

Lin Fan saluted the emperor and went out to do something.

In the afternoon, Lin Fan took a stack of letters and entered the imperial study.

"It's so fast to command people to do things." Gonggong Xu took the letter and smiled.

Lin Fan ignored him, and only said to the emperor: "The reply letter from the two prefects, Xu Chen and Xu Kuang, was taken out of Mrs. Xu's study, and he sent someone to Xu Chen's office. ”

"Can you run back and forth in half a day?" The emperor asked.

Before Lin Fan, Qin Yin answered with the emperor seriously: "Back then, the cavalry ran faster than this, that is, the old minister was older, not as old as he was back then, otherwise the old minister would go in person, and send this letter to you half an hour earlier." ”

The emperor pursed his lips and regretted it in his heart.

What to ask?

These courtiers must have known early on that the Xu family's letter could prove it for the old lady, how could they not be prepared?

Who knows when this letter was delivered to Kyori.

Flipping down, the emperor saw the letter from the Taiping Mansion.

Is this not pretending to be installed?

Lin Fan lowered his eyes and said: "Shili Pavilion outside the city met the person sent back to the capital by the prefect of Xu Guo from the Taiping Mansion, saying that he could not come back to accompany the old man for the New Year, and gave a New Year's gift a year ago, and then bought a set of unique books, thinking that he could be loved by the old man, so he hurriedly sent it to the capital again, and by the way, he packed up some calligraphy and paintings, and a piece of family letters, and transported them back to the mansion. The minister flipped through it, and it happened to be there. ”

The emperor sighed: "That's really a coincidence." ”

He didn't believe a word!

However, no matter when, where, and how these letters arrived in Lin Fan's hands, it didn't matter whether he doubted it or believed it.

What matters is what is in the letter.

Xu Kuang and Xu Chen's handwriting can be compared with their own past documents, and the emperor is even more familiar with Mrs. Xu's handwriting.

In a few letters, Mrs. Xu's attitude was very clear.

The old lady was merciless when she scolded the emperor, let alone scolded her son and grandson.

Let them abide by their duties and be loyal to the emperor, a few stinky boys are young and the milk smell has not dried, Xu Kuang and Xu Chen have both joined the government as officials, don't they know how to do things?

Between the lines, there is no dirty word, and it scolds people to the top.

These letters really prove that the old lady definitely did not take the emperor in his eyes, nor did he mean to curse the emperor to die early.

On the contrary, he is extremely protective of the emperor.

The emperor put the letter down.

In fact, from the moment Qin Yin opened his mouth on the Jinluan Palace, it must have been these things that were sent to the imperial study.

The emperor was not surprised, he only felt upset.

"Your Majesty," Mrs. Xu said in a deep voice, "The old minister's loyalty can be seen by the sky, but he was misunderstood like this, and the old minister was cold. ”

The emperor looked straight at Mrs. Xu.

Seeing this, Taishi Huang sighed secretly.

The boss wants the emperor to admit his mistake, but the emperor, can he admit it?

"Boss," Huang Taishi gave Mrs. Xu a look, "The emperor must trust you." ”

The old lady persuaded left and right, and signaled Fan Taibao, Qin Yin and others to help, so that he could barely stabilize the tension between the two monarchs and ministers.

Mrs. Xu finally came out of the imperial study and was with the others.

And the emperor, with a dark and calm face, sat behind the big case and didn't say a word.

When Mrs. Xu returned home, she knew that the imperial forest had been besieged for many days, and it was rare that she did not rush to the crown in anger.

He went into the study, washed briefly, and lay down on the couch.

On this trip, Mrs. Xu didn't get up, and he didn't show up the next morning.

The old man refused to go to court on the grounds of recuperation.

The emperor's mood is worse than yesterday.

After returning to the imperial study, he said coldly: "What do you mean by Taifu?" Do you want me to visit him myself and make amends to him? ”

Father-in-law Xu didn't dare to answer this.

Deng Guoshi said: "Your Majesty, the ministers and generals will not take the emperor who made mistakes in their eyes, you really apologize for this......"

"What do you mean by that?" The emperor's voice was icy, "Are you saying that I am an incompetent king who is suppressed by those domineering ministers?" ”

Deng Guoshi hurriedly took a step back, his head buried low: "You're not, it's Taifu who has lost his sense of proportion, so he can't threaten you from the court." ”

"If he doesn't want to go to court, don't go to court!" The emperor's airway.

At noon, Fan Taibao was still pulling Huang Taishi to ponder how to resolve the conflict between Xu Taifu and the emperor, and heard that the imperial forest that had been withdrawn from Xu's family had returned.

This time, they also pulled two cartloads of red bricks.

Jingle bells, red brick walls, sealing the gate of the Xu family.

For a while, around the thousand-step corridor, they looked at each other, and before everyone could come to their senses, there was movement in Xu's house again.

Mrs. Xu ordered the servants to tear down a courtyard wall, put together the broken bricks, and erect another wall on the inside of the gate.

When Fan Taibao heard the news, he covered his heart and coughed for a while.

Huang Taishi held his forehead and couldn't say a word for a long time.

This is really a veritable teacher and student, with a stinky temper in the same vein!

Between the monarch and the minister, there was a complete freeze.

At the head of the Xu family, only one family builds a ladder every day to go in and out to buy what they need, and the rest of the people, regardless of the old and young, do not go out one step further.

After seven days like this, Fan Taibao couldn't hold it anymore and went to Qin Yin to discuss.

"I heard that this morning, the Queen Mother went to the imperial study, it should be for the sake of the Taifu, the mother and son broke up unhappily," Fan Taibao said, "If it goes on like this, it will not be a way in the end, old marquis, you say, when His Royal Highness comes out of the funeral, will the old lady come out?" ”

Qin Yin shook his head.

It's not that he doesn't know, but he's been having an idea for the past two days.

If such a stalemate continues, the emperor will be provoked by Deng Guoshi again, and there may be a more extreme response.

"Jie Zi pushes ......," Qin Yin said in a low voice.

When Fan Taibao heard this, he was so frightened that the hairs on his back stood on end: "Old marquis, don't say such scary things!" ”

Having said that, Fan Taibao also muttered in his heart.

In order to force out Jie Zitui, who was hidden in the mountains and forests, Duke Wen of Jin set fire to the mountain, and the fire burned for three days and three nights, and Jie Zitui did not go down the mountain even if he died.

He just listened to the name, it really reminded the emperor of this stubble, and he also learned from Jin Wengong to take fire and smoke......

Damn!

"The emperor won't be so, so ......" Fan Taibao had a bitter face, so worried.

Yongning Hou put his hands behind his back and didn't say a word.

If it was a few years ago, he would have thought that he wouldn't, but now or in the future, Qin Yin is no longer sure.

The emperor is now going more and more deviantly.

Bidding farewell to Fan Taibao, Qin Yin returned to the Hou Mansion.

Without returning to the study, he went straight to the ancestral hall.

After standing quietly for two quarters of an hour, Qin Yin came out and explained, "Go and invite the eldest girl to come." ”

He thought that he needed to talk to Ah Luan carefully.
