The verandah is narrow and there is only one road, and it is not easy to avoid when the two phases meet, so Ye Pei had to walk over and say to Fan Zhongyan Wanfu: "Fan Xianggong is good!" ”

Fan Zhongyan was not rude, and he also returned the salute: "The minister sees the lord of Le'an!" ”

Seeing that the ceremony was closed, Fan Zhongyan dodged and left.

Ye Pei felt aggrieved and resentful, and couldn't help asking: "Fan Xianggong, where did I offend you, you want to go against me?" ”

Fan Zhongyan stopped, didn't look back, only lowered his head and said, "When did I go against the county lord?" ”

"What do you mean by going to me? I respect you as a loyal minister of the Great Song Dynasty, but I have also contributed to the country, why do you always look down on me? ”

"Since I am a loyal minister of the Great Song Dynasty, I only think about the Great Song Dynasty and do things, and I will not take into account my personal feelings! It's not just those good old people who only say good things! After Fan Zhongyan finished speaking, he walked towards the main hall without looking back.

Ye Pei's face turned pale with anger, and he rubbed for a while before returning to his seat, and instructed Xia Qinyuan to pack up his belongings and prepare to return to the palace. But she hadn't left yet, but she saw Fan Zhongyan walking in her direction.

Ye Pei was puzzled, but saw Li Shi say to Fan Zhongyan: "Official, are you here?" ”

Fan Zhongyan said: "Well, I've already gone to see the eldest princess, let's go." ”

Ye Pei was shocked, "Sister is Mrs. Fan?" "I was so scared that I almost coughed.

Li patted Ye Pei on the back and said gently: "Be careful, the county lord is careful, I said a long time ago that we will meet if we are fated." I also hope that we will meet again in the future. ”

Ye Pei said: "Yes, yes, I hope we can meet again if we are fated." ”

Ye Pei stood for a long time, she looked at the back of Fan Zhongyan and his wife Li Shi, and had mixed feelings in her heart.

Xia Qinyuan saw Ye Pei in a daze and asked, "County Lord, County Lord?" Let's go, too. ”

Ye Pei came back to his senses with an "um" sound, and followed Xia Qinyuan out of the princess's mansion.

Sitting in the carriage, Ye Pei thought about today's events repeatedly. Fan Zhongyan participated in her and slandered her, but she was a good official for the country and the people, what kind of attitude should she use to face him?

Before I knew it, I arrived at Fantai Street, and the curtain of the carriage was blown up by a fast horse galloping outside.

Xia Qinyuan was busy covering the curtain, but the hand holding the window stopped there, looked out of the window stupidly, and muttered: "Elect Lang!" ”

Who would have thought that the galloping fast horse would stop more than a dozen paces away, and the handsome boy on the horse glanced back and sighed in surprise: "Xiao Weaving? ”

Xia Qinyuan realized that he was out of shape, and quickly let go of his hand, the curtain fell, and he could no longer see the scenery outside.

"The lord of the county forgives sins. Slave, slave didn't mean to......" Xia Qinyuan said timidly.

Ye Pei smiled and asked, "Do you know?" ”

Xia Qinyuan nodded, "Well, it's the neighbor's second brother, Song Qi." ”

"Song Qi?" Ye Pei felt that this person's name seemed to have been heard somewhere.

"Oh!" Ye Pei suddenly realized: "Is it the Song family brother who won the champion at the same time?" ”

"It's him!" A hint of blush drifted across Xia Qinyuan's face, and he nodded lightly.

It turned out that this Song Qi and his brother Song Zhen were last year's new science and technology scholars, and the list originally reported by the Ministry of Rites was Song Qi first, and Song Zhen was third.

Empress Dowager Zhang Xian looked at it and said, "How can there be a younger brother who is ranked in front of his elder brother?" He named Song Zhen as the champion, and Song Qi as the tenth in the first class.

In this way, it has the reputation of "one door and two champions", and it is a good story in Bianliang City.

In order to distinguish the two brothers, the world called Song Zhen the Great Song Dynasty and Song Qi the Little Song Dynasty.

Song Qi's nickname is Xuanlang, it is said that her mother dreamed that the immortals left a anthology for her when she was pregnant, so her nickname is Xuanlang.

Ye Pei thought about his own affairs and didn't pay too much attention to it, and after a while, the carriage entered the Ouchi and returned to Qifeng Pavilion in a blink of an eye.

Ye Pei tossed and turned, and today he met Fan Zhongyan's wife, a clean official who worries about the country and the people, but she regards herself as a thorn in her side. The words of the eldest princess of Wei also lingered like a hazy sky.

Should you insist on yourself, or self-sacrifice, or give in and forbearance. It's not easy for the sixth brother to be in power, can she really watch the hard-won achievements go to ruin? If the monarch and the ministers continue to oppose each other like this, the holy name of the sixth elder brother will not be guaranteed, and perhaps the Great Song Dynasty will decline.

Ye Pei didn't dare to think about it anymore, but these terrible thoughts turned into a nightmare.

In the dream, Ye Pei stood in the wilderness where her parents died tragically, the executioner held a knife at her, some people accused her of Daji, and some people scolded her for being a compliment.

Suddenly, a person slashed at her with a knife, and she just wanted to raise her palm to shake this person to death, but when she looked closely, it was Fan Zhongyan's wife Li. The palm she raised stopped in mid-air, but the knife that slashed her had already fallen......

Ye Pei screamed and woke up from his dream.

Miao Jinhe, who was keeping vigil at night, heard it and hurriedly ran to Ye Pei's bedside, "The county lord has a nightmare?" ”

Ye Pei broke out in a cold sweat, and fell into Miao Jinhe's arms and cried: "Sister Miao, what should I do?!" ”

Miao Jinhe stroked her head and comforted: "Good county lord, it's okay, everything will pass." ”

------

These days, Ye Pei has not seen Zhao Zhen because he has been grounded. A few days later, Zhao Zhen came to Qifeng Pavilion to dine by asking about the birthday banquet of the eldest princess of Wei Kingdom.

Zhao Zhen looked at the three or two light side dishes and a bowl of vegetarian porridge on the table, and asked, "Didn't Chen Zhongyi tell you that I came to eat at noon?" Do you eat these on weekdays? ”

Ye Pei said while serving Zhao Zhen's clean hands: "I heard that there is a great drought in the world, and the people are all fed on grass and mustard. ”

Zhao Zhen sat down and said, "Then I'll make do with some vegetarian food." After eating a few bites, Zhao Zhen turned his head and asked again: "You go to the eldest princess's mansion to pay respects, is her old man okay?" ”

"The eldest princess is fine, but her eye disease still doesn't heal."

Zhao Zhen sighed: "This is also an old problem, no matter how many imperial doctors I have sent over, it has not worked." ”

Ye Pei nodded, and said, "I met Fan Zhongyan's wife in the eldest princess's mansion. ”

Zhao Zhen's eyebrows immediately stood up and said, "No wonder you talked about the drought in the river today." That Fan Zhongyan returned to Beijing without an edict, and he still thinks I didn't degrade him far enough? ”

"Sixth brother, don't think badly of her."

Zhao Zhen said: "Then what did she want to deliberately approach you?" is a good prime minister's wife, but now she has become an ordinary wife, and she has complaints in her heart, right? Or do you want to say a lot of kind words for her officials in front of me, and quickly transfer back to Beijing? She even has the face to come to you! ”

Ye Pei hurriedly said, "His wife didn't say this when she saw me. ”

"And what can she say as a woman?"

Ye Pei took out the weed that Li gave her and said, "Official, Mrs. Fan showed me this. ”

Zhao Zhen glanced at him disapprenosingly, "What is this?" ”

"Weeds on the side of the road."

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

"What do you do with it?"

"Sixth brother, do you want to taste it?"

Zhao Zhen frowned, "It must not be delicious." ”

Ye Pei continued: "The drought is severe, and the people are eating this to satisfy their hunger. If the official eats some vegetarian food, he feels bland and tasteless, and who can understand the suffering of the people?

Fan Zhongdrowned to die, was it for his own fame and fortune? He pleaded for the people, if the official family is not allowed, who will dare to plead for the people in the future, and who will be willing to be a clean and good official who worries about the country and the people? ”

Zhao Zhen listened to Ye Pei's words, and he couldn't eat the vegetarian porridge in his mouth. "Well, I just didn't expect the disaster to be so severe."

"Now that the sixth brother knows, he must have something to say."

Zhao Zhen looked at Ye Pei faintly and said, "Why can't they see your goodness?" You are the best candidate for the Empress of the Middle Palace. ”

Ye Pei also shook his head and said sentimentally: "Sixth brother, Pei'er doesn't ask for any queen title, I even volunteered to take the Avoiding Zi decoction to not conceive a dragon heir." ”

Zhao Zhen heard this, and directly covered Ye Pei's mouth with his hand and said angrily: "I don't allow you to talk nonsense!" ”

"Sixth brother, this is what I say from my heart, please listen to me. I only wish that the world will be peaceful, the people will be healthy, and the country will be prosperous. If I become a sinner in the country, how can I have the face to see my parents and brother underground when I die in the future? ”

Zhao Zhen hugged Ye Pei in his arms and sighed: "I know, you are my good Pei'er, really my good Pei'er!" ”

The two of them snuggled for a while, and Ye Pei said again: "Is the sixth brother going to be a generation of saints?" ”

"I naturally want to be a good emperor, but I don't know how difficult it is to sit in this position!"

"That day, the eldest princess advised me not to let you embarrass between the courtiers and me. The opposition between the monarch and the minister, the political affairs are scattered, and the dynasty will be weakened because of this, I can't watch this happen! I implore the sixth brother to make the queen early, and ask Fan Xianggong to return to Beijing to calm down the court discussion! ”

"But, but it's so unfair to you!"

"There is no absolute fairness in the world, and Emperor Han Jing was in the same mood when he killed Cao Cuo. To become a generation of emperors, it is inevitable to make sacrifices. ”

"This sacrifices our love!"

"At least I'm still alive, and I can still be by my sixth brother's side!"

Zhao Zhen stroked Ye Pei's face and sighed: "I want to be a generation of saints and share weal and woe with you, can't there be a method of double perfection?" ”

Ye Pei couldn't sleep that night, she kept examining herself, is she really not worthy of being a queen? All his advantages have become disadvantages in the eyes of the courtiers, his high martial arts are feared, and his ability is criticized.

She missed her parents, she thought of her brother who had died in her place, how could they make such a big sacrifice?

She thought of the Empress Dowager Zhang Xian again. Now that I think about it, many of the things that the Empress Dowager Zhang Xian said are very reasonable.

Ye Pei only wants to do things, do good things, and do big things, and has never had the selfishness of forming a party. But when she had an accident, no one in the court spoke for Ye Pei.

She remembered what Empress Dowager Zhang Xian said, it is impossible to do without her own power, and she understands Liu E more and more, why did she become like that? Those were the ones who forced her to be like that.

Ye Pei thought of his master again, he wanted to be a good person, and he also had a heart for love. But in the end, he did a lot of bad things and was considered a murderous demon.

Ye Pei couldn't help but sigh: "It's really hard to be a good person!" ”
