Sure enough, soon, there was a twist and turn to attack Sun Zhaoyuan, and this twist and turn came from Shi Mengxu in the matter.

Shi Mengxu knelt down on top of the hall and said, "The minister has something to play." ”

Emperor Yan said: "Play it." ”

Shi Mengxu said: "This performance was originally to refer to Sun Shoucheng, the father of Sun Zhaoyuan, the champion of the new department. Sun Shoucheng, in his early years, was a landed talent, and he failed repeatedly, but suddenly, he got a fortune. Originally, some officials, seeing that he was close to the governor of Yong'an Prefecture, gave him a huge amount of silver, so he was rich. Although Sun Shoucheng is not an official of the imperial court, he is also suspected of accepting bribes, and he can be questioned according to the laws of the Nie Er clan. ”

Sun Zhaoyuan broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, and said in his heart: "This Nuyid, I can't find a handle on me, but he has moved my family's idea." It's just that what he said is true, and if he interrogates him carefully, my father will definitely go to prison, and in this process of collecting evidence, if he finds me a little handle, he can punish me. But fortunately, this matter not only involves my family, but also involves the officialdom of Yong'an Prefecture, and it is not a matter of shaking the country, and the Son of Heaven will not be too pursued, after all, bribery is also a double-edged sword. And now that I have preliminarily obtained the approval of the Son of Heaven, he should let this matter go. ”

Sure enough, after hearing this, Emperor Yan frowned and said, "That Sun Shoucheng is just an ordinary talent, and he doesn't have a heavy responsibility, how can it be regarded as accepting bribes." I think it's just that some officials are good friends with him and give some gifts to each other. There is no need to make a big fuss about this. And he turned it into a matter.

Although Sun Zhaoyuan knew that this matter had been suppressed by Emperor Yan, he had already murdered Nuyid, and said in his heart: "This person is now going to attack my family, if he really has a handle in his hands, he will not slaughter all my Sun family." Even if he doesn't have a handle, he has been against me for a long time, and he can't stand the crowd's mouths, and the Son of Heaven will have many opinions about me, and when the Son of Heaven no longer protects me, I will be a fish on the case and let him slaughter it. I'm going to fight back. ”

Sun Zhaoyuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, remembering what Nu Mingshu said, the door of his house is a broken road, and the road is extremely heavy. Sun Zhaoyuan thought of this and said in his heart: "No matter what, we must first destroy the Feng Shui of the Nu family before we can defeat Nu Yide so that he will not hurt my Sun family in the slightest." ”

The plan has been decided, Sun Zhaoyuan went to the bookstore, took a lot of feng shui books, went home to study carefully, found a way, late at night, along the outer wall of Nu Mansion, every other zhang, put a town house charm at the root of the wall, with glutinous rice sticked, and covered with soil, outsiders can no longer see the buried things underneath. This town house charm was originally a charm for Tibetan wind and gathering qi, if any feng shui is not easy to gather, then use this town house charm to calm the wind and gather qi.

Sun Zhaoyuan thought that there was a lot of evil qi in Nufu, if it wasn't for Tai Chi Liangyi to dissolve the evil qi and dissipate it, then the evil qi would fill Nufu, so Sun Zhaoyuan thought of using this spell to gather qi so that the evil qi could not be dissipated, and it would accumulate more and more in Nufu, destroying the fortune of the Nu family.

Sun Fei carefully observed Nuyid in the past few days, and saw that Nuyid's face was green, thinking that he had been affected by the evil qi.

On this day, Deng Changcheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites at the court meeting, said: "Qi Yu Shengshang, tomorrow is the birthday of Prince De, according to the practice of the Nie Er people, the birthday of the prince, civil and military officials are all on a day off to celebrate, and the ministers asked the saint, is this year also in accordance with previous years, a day off, for Prince De's birthday?" ”

Emperor Yan said: "Prince De is the younger brother born to the first emperor's mother, appointed by Taizong as the prince, the highest person in the dynasty, and also my own uncle. Although he goes to court from time to time on weekdays, he is a little greedy for pleasure, but he has also done a lot of practical things for the community. Today, I saw that Prince De did not go to the court, so Sun Zhaoyuan drafted a birthday edict for me, and went to Prince De's palace tomorrow to read it for me to show his favor. Spread my will, tomorrow the ministers will rest for a day and congratulate Prince De on his birthday. ”

The ministers knelt on the ground and shouted long live.

On the evening of the second day, Sun Zhaoyuan was escorted by several guards and rode to Prince De's mansion. It turned out that this Prince De's Mansion was next to Nu Mansion, but Sun Zhaoyuan walked by in a hurry every time, and he didn't pay attention to the surrounding people. At this time, Prince De was already at the door to greet the holy decree, along with many courtiers. Sun Zhaoyuan glanced at it, and the officials of the previous dynasty were basically gathered, and even the three major confidential ministers such as Tu Catalogue were all present. Thinking about this Prince De, he usually has accumulated a lot of official power, such a powerful person, because he usually does not have to go to the court, and Sun Zhaoyuan has never seen it.

Sun Zhaoyuan got off the horse, took the holy decree handed over by the guard, and said, "Prince De takes the decree." ”

Prince De immediately stood up and said, "The minister's decree." And they all knelt down.

Sun Zhaoyuan glanced at Prince De, who was in his thirties, with a beard, blazing eyes, not angry and arrogant, and his appearance was extraordinary. Sun Zhaoyuan was suppressed by his momentum, and almost forgot that he was the messenger sent by the Holy Lord to read the holy decree.

Sun Zhaoyuan fixed his mind, opened the holy decree, and said: "Fengtian carrier, the edict of the Son of Heaven said: Today is the birthday of Prince De, my own uncle, I am very happy. Prince De has not been to the court for a long time, I am very worried, if my body allows, I still often go to the court, let me also see it, to see how it is doing. Moreover, the Empress Dowager also misses Prince De very much, and often mentions it in front of me, and Prince De can also go to Cining Palace after the meeting to meet the Empress Dowager to relieve her thoughts. Chin this. ”

Prince De bowed and said, "Thank you, Lord Longen." ”

After receiving the order, everyone introduced Sun Zhaoyuan into the courtyard. Entering the courtyard, Sun Zhaoyuan saw that dozens of tables of banquets had been set up in the courtyard, and Sun Zhaoyuan came on behalf of the Son of Heaven, so he naturally wanted to sit in the main position, so he sat at a table with Prince De, Tu Lula, Satulu, and Jindeha, and other officials also sat down according to their official qualities.

Prince De raised his glass and said: "This king is not talented, deeply favored by the emperor, the saint sent the minister to come to celebrate the birthday, but also thanks to the love of the ministers, come to the palace to celebrate the birthday, the king is very grateful, specially prepared wine and delicacies, and the ministers to appreciate, today, but I hope you have fun, a drunk return." ”

All the officials said: "Today is a day of great joy, and we must be drunk before resting." ”

There were people playing music and singing on the stage next to it, and the people were also passing food and wine like running water, so it was not lively. A joyful and peaceful scene.

The catalogue raised his head, stood up, and said: "Today is the day of Prince De's great joy, come on, come on, everyone, we respect Prince De for a cup, and wish Prince De 9,000 years old." ”

Sun Zhaoyuan hurriedly picked up the wine glass and stood up, Satulu and Jin Deha were a little dissatisfied in their hearts: "Your catalogue is good at stealing the show, first stand up and respect Prince Jingde, let us also accompany us, let others wait to see it, I don't think you have pressed us." But the opportunity has been robbed, and I have to stand up, and I can't embarrass Prince De on this big day. ”
