Chapter 207: Rumors

The courtiers left one after another, Zong Zhengcheng Feng Luyang walked last, and after the courtiers walked away, Feng Luyang turned his head and walked towards Moyun Hall.

Liu Heng has a habit that after the dispersal of the court, he will first return to the cuttlefish hall to sit for an hour, so that some officials have things that are inconvenient to explain in the court and need to be played separately.

It is also convenient for the problems that could not be solved in the court before, and after the dispersal of the court, some ministers came up with a way to ask for clarification.

"Great King, Master Zongzheng Cheng Feng asks to see you."

"Let him in."

Feng Luyang entered to see, Liu Heng allowed him to be exempt from courtesy, and asked him what he was doing here.

"The minister has something to report to the king."

"Why didn't you say it in the palace?"

"I think it's inconvenient to make a public statement."

Liu Heng looked at his expression and wanted to figure out what it was, but it was not easy to see a person's mind.

"What's the matter?"

"It's about Mrs. Dou."

"Yifang? What happened to Yifang? ”

Feng Luyang wanted to speak and stopped, hesitating.

Liu Heng looked anxious and let him have something to say. Only then did he say: "Recently, there have been bad words about Mrs. Dou in the market......

"What did you say?"

"Say...... Say...... Madame is raising male pets outside......"

"Nonsense!" Liu Heng was furious, slapped his palm on the table, and the teacup jumped up.

Feng Luyang arched his hand and said, "The king, please calm your anger." ”

His woman was slandered, how could he not be angry, Liu Heng asked what the market said.

Feng Luyang said: "Mrs. Dou once went to Baiyun Temple to practice, but met bandits on the way, and was later rescued by one person. ”

The man was infatuated with Mrs. Yu, so he followed Mrs. to Baiyun Temple in the name of escort. Later, he also became a Taoist priest at home in Baiyun Temple, and only accompanied his wife all day long......"

Liu Heng felt evil when he heard it, and the hand on the table was clenched into a fist, and the green tendons on the back of his hand were exposed. Holding back his anger, he said, "How did this rumor come about?" ”

Feng Luyang said: "It seems that the Taoist priest has recently found the capital, and he is asking people about the method of entering the palace, as for why there are such obscene rumors, Weichen does not know......"

"What's that Taoist priest's name, and where is it now?"

"It seems that his name is Yu Nianchu, and he has no fixed place to live, but as long as he is in the capital, it shouldn't be difficult to find him."

When he heard the words "Yu Nianchu", Liu Heng was stunned.

Yu Nianchu's feelings for Dou Yifang couldn't be clearer, and although Dou Yifang didn't admit that she also liked Yu Nianchu, she had begged him to let Yu Nianchu go, and there was no love in it, Liu Heng didn't believe it.

If it was really Yu Nianchu, Liu Heng felt that this rumor had some credibility.

"Stand down, and don't talk to anyone about it."

"Yes, Weichen retired."

After Feng Luyang withdrew, Liu Heng immediately ordered Wanquan to summon Zhang Wu.

After about a cup of tea, Zhang Wu came, see. Liu Heng asked him to calm down and asked him if he had met Yu Nianchu on the way to escort Dou Yifang to Baiyun Temple.

Zhang Wu learned about the relationship between Yu Nianchu and Dou Yifang from Jiang Yanxiang, and now seeing that Liu Heng had an angry look on his face, and asked this question for no reason, he knew that his answer would affect Liu Heng's attitude towards Dou Yifang.

However, Liu Heng asked, and he couldn't help but say. After thinking about it, he said with a blank face: "Wechen has heard this name, but he doesn't know it......"

"This king asks you, when Mrs. Dou encountered bandits on the way to Baiyun Temple, did someone help her?"

Zhang Wu really has no way to hide it, he can only say it.

"And then what about this man?"

"Leaving ......"

"Left?"

"Yes."

"You said you would leave if you left, how can this king believe it?"

Zhang Wu was speechless.

Liu Heng couldn't ask why, and his heart was even more annoyed, so he asked Zhang Wu to retreat first. Wanquan offered him tea and persuaded him to dissipate his anger. Liu Heng said angrily: "How do you feel that the people around this king are deceiving this king!" ”

Wanquan knelt down in panic, "Our family is loyal to the king and dare not bully each other." ”

"Get up, this king didn't say anything about you!!"

"King Xie."

Liu Heng pondered for a while and came up with an idea, "Wanquan, you send someone to Baiyun Temple to investigate." This king believes that the Jade True Daoist will not lie......"

Wanquan answered and arranged to go.

……

Minglan Palace.

"Niangniang, Lord Feng has news......"

"Tell me what news."

"After the king heard Lord Feng say about Mrs. Dou and Yu Nianchu, Long Yan was furious, and now he has sent someone to Baiyun Temple to investigate......"

Mrs. Han was overjoyed when she heard this, although those Taoist priests in Baiyun Temple would not say that Dou Yifang had an affair with Yu Nianchu, but at least they could confirm that Yu Nianchu had become a monk in order to stay by Dou Yifang's side.

"Let Lord Feng find out again, who is the spy who went to Baiyun Temple!" Mrs. Han said excitedly.

Youlan Palace.

Dou Yifang held a bamboo slip in her hand and sat in front of the window reading a book, but her eyes were focused on the book. She was distracted again.

Danhe came up to change the tea that had cooled down, and replaced it with a cup of hot tea, but Dou Yifang was still in a daze.

"Madame, what's wrong with you?" Danhe asked uneasily.

Dou Yifang came back to his senses and looked at Danhe, "What did you say?" ”

"Madam, what do you think about all day long?"

"It's nothing, by the way, hasn't Changhuan been here today?"

"How could you not know that she is here?"

Dou Yifang thought about it and smiled to himself. As soon as Ju Changhuan came to this Chunyan Pavilion, it would be lively, but she didn't notice this, it seemed that she was really thinking about things too much.

Dou Yifang is thinking about the queen again, the harem lord can't be empty for a long time, this queen will be elected sooner or later, if she doesn't seize the opportunity now, maybe there will be no chance next time.

But she was worried that if she stood up to run at this time, she would become the enemy of Mrs. Han and Mrs. Zhen, and now that she was pregnant, she was afraid that there would be an accident.

This question has been bothering her for two days, and she has not been determined until now. Ju Changhuan would come over almost every day to ask her if she had any intention of being elected, but in fact, she hoped that Ju Changhuan would be selected.

That way, she would have to take few risks and still be protected. It's a pity that the concubine doesn't like Ju Changhuan very much.

Is there a way for the concubine to change her prejudice against Ju Changhuan? I'm afraid not, the concubine likes to stereotype people, and she thinks that this person is what he is.

Alas, Dou Yifang was full of helplessness. Look out the window, the sun has deceived the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun is like a golden veil, gently swooping down on the earth.

Dou Yifang remembered that Liu Heng had said that he would come to her today, and said that he had something very important to ask her. So, it asked the light lotus to prepare.

As night falls, the lights come on. The breeze blows through the courtyard, the shadows of the flowers sway, and the palace lights in the flowers flicker and dim, like stars in the sky.

Dou Yifang deliberately asked duckweed to arrange the wine and food under the moon before the flowers, just to have a romantic dinner with Liu Heng. But after waiting for a long time, Liu Heng still didn't come, and he didn't send to inform him.

The dishes on the table were already cold, and duckweed showed an impatient expression and said, "Is this king still coming?" ”

Dou Yifang didn't hear it, and Danhe immediately said: "Maybe something is delayed......" and then signaled her with her eyes not to talk nonsense, duckweed snorted.

After waiting for another stick of incense, Danhe came up and proposed to take the dish to heat it up, Dou Yifang shook his head, "Withdraw, the king should not come......" said and got up and went back to the room.

"I said the king won't come......" duckweed said.

"As far as you know, you're good!! Pack up this place, and I'll go see Madame." ”

"Why am I cleaning up ...... again?"

Duckweed complained about the kung fu, and the light lotus had gone away.

Dou Yifang returned to the bedroom and sat sulking. It was clearly said that there were very important things to explain, but people did not come.

If you don't come and don't send someone to say it, it's obvious that you forgot about it, how can this not make people angry?

Danhe walked in and said, "Madam, you haven't had dinner yet, if you want to eat something, the slave will let you prepare." ”

"I don't have an appetite."

"Why don't you eat some too, you're not hungry, the baby in your belly is hungry."

Listening to Danhe's persuasion, Dou Yifang's anger disappeared a lot, "Go and prepare something light!" ……”

"Yes."

Dou Yifang told himself that Liu Heng forgot his appointment with her tonight because he was busy with government affairs, but he didn't know that Liu Heng had doubts about her loyalty.

Now, Liu Heng asked the Tanma sent by Wanquan to come to the post station outside Qinghe County, and they were having dinner together.

At this time, the carriage stopped in front of the post station, and the post manager saw that the carriage was gorgeous, thinking that it might be a certain official, so he came out to greet him.

It was Feng Luyang who walked down from the carriage, and he was dismissive of the post manager's enthusiasm and asked if there were any horses from the capital today.

The post manager replied, "There is only one ride." ”

"Is it over?"

"Not yet, it's in the dining room."

Feng Luyang was overjoyed and walked in quickly.

Speaking of this Feng Luyang, he is a good friend of Han Kuang.

Now that Han Kuang has passed away, he has become Mrs. Han's only support outside.

If he can help Mrs. Han become the queen, then his career will be on the rise, and it is precisely because of this plan that he works so hard.

The dining room was not large, with only four tables and only one person, and there were spies sent by Wanquan over there.

Feng Luyang didn't step forward, he stood at the door of the dining room and sent his coachman in. The coachman had been with him for a long time and was his confidant.

The coachman sat down before the spy, who looked at him and went on to eat his own meal.

The coachman smiled and asked, "Brother, where are you going?" ”

The spy didn't look up, and said, "What are you asking?" ”

"I've been sent out on business, so maybe we're on the same road?"

"I'll go north."

"Coincidentally, so did I. By the way, what are you going to do? ”

The spy became vigilant, raised his eyes to look at him, and said solemnly: "What are we doing on our own errands, what are you asking for?" ”

The coachman laughed again: "Isn't this curious? You tell me your errand, and I tell you my errand, how about it? ”

"Not interested." After the spy finished speaking, he buried his head in eating.
