In the blink of an eye, another half a month has passed.

"Childe, I'm back."

"Oh! Yuna! Come! Sit! Warm your hands! ”

“…… It's okay! How can it be so cold! The leaves on the trees outside are still there! That is, Childe, you will feel cold when you are idle every day, and it will be okay if you move more. ”

Lin Yun'er glanced at Xu Huabiao, but she still sat beside him obediently.

"How? How did you go so long today? ”

"I was about to tell you, tomorrow morning, Soon-gyu and Mi-young want me to go with me, and they will come to pick me up early tomorrow morning."

“…… Tomorrow on the court? Jung Yun-ho still can't wait? ”

"It's not Yunho, everyone can't wait." Lin Yun'er smiled, "After all, everyone's identities are different now, and the current group of people here in Xuchang are either the guards here or the guards there, and it is easy to mess up after coming out for months." Just like Zhu Xian said today, there will be envoys from Hedong County to Xuchang every two days to find her recently...... She's annoyed. ”

"There's no way around it! Who thought of cleaning up the queen this time...... Well, things are so bad for the former queen's father's remnants! ”

"No! When we talked about this matter today, Shun Gui also said that it was much smoother than the last time when Xue Jingqiu's remnants were cleaned up. It's only been half a month, and not only have all the people who should have been locked up have been locked up, but several people have finished their trials......"

"What a trial! Whoever has something wrong with it is decided before the arrest is made. Xu Huabiao waved his hand, "Well, anyway, now is tomorrow when you go to court, pay attention." Even if it's arched to the front, don't be too eye-catching. Raise the conversation appropriately, and then there will be people who are much more active than you rush forward. ”

"I know." Lin Yun'er smiled, "It must be General Taeyeon who takes the lead, after all, she was the one who played more than half a month ago......"

"It's hard to say, most likely they will arch you to the front when the time comes."

“…… Yes? Why? ”

"Because you represent me! Quan Baoer had returned to Puyang some time ago, and before she left, she told me that she had already explained everything that should be explained, this time...... They should have done so. ”

"This ......" Lin Yun'er was a little flustered, "Then what do I say?" ”

"Anyway, tomorrow the court will definitely have something to do with the queen's father's rebellion. The news of Li Sailun has arrived, this time the queen and her father will be killed, and the prince she gave birth to will be demoted to a concubine. After that, An Junying, who retreated this time, should mention something like the harem can't be left without an owner for a day, and then ask the Son of Heaven Jin Park so-young to be the queen. ”

“…… Ahn Jun Young? That person is really ......" Lin Yun'er looked disgusted.

"Okay, he's just trying to survive, so don't dislike him too much. Once when he was in Jiangdong, he was also a good official. Xu Huabiao looked at Lin Yun'er's expression and smiled, "If you see him tomorrow, you can be impatient, but don't put on this nasty expression." ”

"I know." Lin Yun'er waved her hand, like chasing flies, "So, I need to deal with him?" ”

"No, I don't. The housework of the Son of Heaven, he himself counts, and An Junying's messy sycophants are only left to be hated. This time, the Son of Heaven was obviously moved with compassion, so he almost begged him not to bite the queen's family to death, and he threw the pot at them like a mad dog...... Well, he saved his own life, and even this time he might be promoted because of his meritorious service, but the Son of Heaven should be annoying him to death now. Xu Huabiao shook his head with a smile, "But there will definitely be people who can't figure out the situation, follow the advice, you have to stand up and say...... The housework of the Son of Heaven, or please ask the Son of Heaven to decide for himself, if Concubine Park Xiurong is suitable, the Son of Heaven will naturally make her the queen and share the burden of the harem for the Son of Heaven, and now it should be said that it is the person who shares the burden of the world for His Majesty. This time, the Duke of Wei was pretended to be in the name of His Majesty, and even tried to assassinate the Duke of Wei in a vain attempt, precisely because some people felt that His Majesty was suspicious of the Duke of Wei, and the minister hereby asked His Majesty to promote the Duke of Wei as the King of Wei, so as to set the record straight and let the people of the world know that His Majesty has unreserved trust and reliance on the Duke of Wei. ”

“…… Childe, can you say that paragraph you just said again? I'll memorize it. ”

"......" Xu Huabiao nodded with a speechless smile.

Sentence by sentence, teach Lin Yun'er to remember and memorize.

It took half an hour......

"Remember?"

"Yes." Lin Yun'er nodded, and then memorized the paragraph.

Even the tone is the same as Xu Huabiao.

As long as you know the two of them, you can hear that this is completely Xu Huabiao saying what he wants to say through Lin Yun'er's mouth.

"Good." Xu Huabiao smiled and kissed his wife.

"But, Childe, why aren't you going tomorrow?"

"It will become very embarrassing for me to go, and even His Majesty may throw the pot on me whether to crown Li Xiuman as king. I definitely can't go...... And, I have important things to do tomorrow. ”

"Something important? What? ”

"Save people."

“…… Is it Su-yeon-sama? ”

"Hmm. If I enter the palace, I will definitely be left by His Majesty to say something after the court meeting, and it will be delayed...... I'm afraid of mistakes. ”

"Childe, are you saying that what will happen after the court meeting ends tomorrow?"

"She'll be arguing with you at the court. I...... I really don't want to see that scene. Xu Huabiao sighed.

“…… Do you want me to go, son? I don't want to quarrel with Su-yeon-sama either! ”

"The Tao is different, and they do not conspire with each other." Xu Huabiao shook his head, "You are doing this for her good." That's what you think. ”

“…… Oh. Lin Yun'er nodded.

It's just that his expression still looks a little uneasy.

……

The next morning.

The main hall of the Royal Palace.

Courts.

"Your Majesty, please judge!"

Suddenly, beside Lin Yun'er, a row of people stood up and knelt down in front of the Son of Heaven sitting on the throne.

What Lin Yun'er said just now is reasonable and well-founded, and it also points to the core of the queen's father's matter this time: it is because some people feel that the Son of Heaven does not trust Li Xiuman, so many people will be bewitched and oppose Li Xiuman.

Therefore, Lin Yun'er's angle of persuasion is very special, not about the old routines such as merit, but in terms of the Son of Heaven showing his trust in Li Xiuman.

It's not what Li Xiuman wants, it's what the Son of Heaven rewards.

gave enough face to the Son of Heaven.

"Your Majesty! No! The prince is different from others, the surname is not the king, it is the regulation left by the ancestors, and it cannot be abolished! Zheng Xiuyan also hurriedly stood up.

However.

Behind her, not a single person seconded the proposal.

It seems obvious what people want.

"A different surname is not a king? If there was no Duke of Wei, Jin Guangzhu would even be called the emperor! Cui Xiuying, who was next to Lin Yun'er, said coldly, "If there is no Duke Wei in this world, I don't know how many people are called emperors and how many people are kings!" ”

"That's what General Xiuying said." Kim Taeyeon also answered next to him, "With the presence of Duke Wei, we can suppress those petty people and dare not trespass." ”

"The ministers will ask Your Majesty again, the Duke of Jin and Wei will be the King of Wei." Lee Soon-gyu answered next to him.

"Your Majesty, please wait for you, the Duke of Jin and Wei will be the King of Wei!" The group of generals who were beside Lin Yun'er said to the Son of Heaven.

Then, the courtiers on the side also stood up and seconded the proposal.

"Your Majesty! No!! ”

Zheng Xiuyan looked at the Son of Heaven, and her expression was no longer anxious.

It's desperation.

Take a look at these two classes of civil and military forces! Behind him, there was no one to ......

Are you all scared by the case that has just been decided?

Her gaze fell back on Lin Yun'er, who lowered her head and arched her hands.

What Lin Yun'er just said, in fact, she also somewhat agreed with it in her heart.

His Majesty's distrust of Duke Wei is engraved in the bones of many people, and only His Majesty can show unconditional and unreserved trust to stop people like the Empress's father......

However, it's not to be crowned king! The prince can't touch it!

And also......

Zheng Xiuyan's gaze moved from Lin Yun'er to his side.

Except for Cui Xiuying, who has relatively little contact with her, the others ......

Kim Taeyeon, for so many years, she has been fighting outside, and she is in charge of it herself, so she thought she was the best sister!

Huang Meiying, she persuaded herself to stay and work for Lord Li Xiuman, right?

Quan Yuli, Jin Xiaoyuan, for the sake of tigers and leopards all these years, I am afraid that there are more contacts between myself and them than between me and Xiujing!

There are also Lee Soon-gyu and Seo Joo-hyun...... You guys......

"Xiuyan Aiqing, what you said is naturally right." The Son of Heaven, who was sitting above, finally spoke, "It's just that the ancestors may not have thought that the world would collapse to this point one day, let alone that there would be a loyal minister like Li Xiuman Aiqing, a capable minister, who would help the world for his descendants and sweep away the ...... So be it. ”

Speaking of which, the Son of Heaven has made a decision.

Everyone present knelt down in a very neat and swooping moment.

Only one person was still standing.

Alone, with a little desperate smile on her face, Jung so-yeon.

"Li Xiuman loves Qing Gong and is loyal to the country, and has made great contributions to my expedition to the east and west...... I am here, and I named Li Xiuman the king of Wei. Someone! ”

"In!" The eunuch who was with him stood up.

"Go to the draft, announce that Li Xiuman Aiqing will enter Beijing, I want to be beautiful, and hold a ceremony for him to be crowned the king, so that those who still feel that they really don't trust Aiqing can see that between me and Li Xiuman Aiqing, they can't be separated!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Zheng Yunhao, who was kneeling in the crowd, was the first to shout.

"Your Majesty Shengming!" The crowd chimed in.

Only Zheng Xiuyan is still standing there alone.

"Alright, today, so be it! Jung Yun-ho Ai-qing, ah......"

"Ahh Your Majesty! Minister! ”

"Please go and ask your father to come to Xuchang again!"

"Weichen takes the order!"

……

"Su-yeon-sama, are you alright?"

“…… General Yun'er, what you said today was taught to you by Lord Xu? ”

“……”

"Yes! Lord Xu is right, Lord Li Xiuman's Duke Wei came later than Duke Yiguo, and indeed some people will think that Duke Wei is easy to bully because of this......" Zheng Xiuyan smiled bitterly, "But...... But you don't have to be crowned king! This will make many people think that adults have a disobedient heart! ”

“……”

"Forget it, General Yun'er, go back, I'll ...... I'm tired too, and I'm going back to rest. Zheng Xiuyan barely pulled out a smile.

“…… Su-yeon-sama, are you alright? Lin Yun'er's face was still full of worry.

"It's okay, I'm leaving." A smile hung on Jung so-yeon's face.

Although it seems reluctant.

Lin Yun'er left, Zheng Xiuyan got in the car, and all the way, without saying a word, returned to her Shangshuling Mansion.

"Adult ......"

"Go down, you are not allowed to come to the backyard without my orders." Zheng Xiuyan waved her hand at the subordinate.

“…… Be. The few subordinates who followed him nodded although they were a little reluctant to speak.

Retire.

The small Shangshuling Mansion has a smaller backyard.

Slowly walked into her room, Zheng Xiuyan originally wanted to lie down and rest.

However, something appeared in front of her.

An empty food box.

A wry smile appeared on Zheng Xiuyan's face again.

Recently, Lin Yun'er will always find an opportunity to set her own words, what did Lee Soon-gyu do when he came to Xuchang.

Do what?

I just gave myself such a thing!

An empty food box? Is it to tell yourself that you have eaten everything you can eat and that you can die?

So, the lord is really already ...... Don't want to continue being a courtier?

Only yourself...... Well, maybe there is Xu Huabiao, do you still believe that he is still the loyal and high-spirited person back then?

Suddenly, the sense of despair that had faded away on the way back from the palace reappeared.

Yes, the meal has been eaten, and it's time to finish.

A little ignorant, Zheng Xiuyan untied her belt, stepped on the stool in the room, and hung it on the beam.

Tied up and put the head in.

Took a deep breath.

Kick your feet.

Just when it was all about to end.

Whoosh.

There was a snap.

The belt, which was originally very strong, was broken.

Zheng Xiuyan fell from the sky.

And at this moment, the door suddenly opened.

"Auntie, are you back? Look at the pony I folded today...... Grandma, are you alright? ”

A small figure barged in.

“…… World achievements......"

"Grandma, what's wrong with you? Did the fall hurt? Don't cry, don't cry...... Whew, it doesn't hurt if you blow it! ”

“……”

"Grandma, come and see my folded pony ......"

"Well, look! See! ”

Zheng Xiuyan wiped the tears from her face, and then, squeezed out a smile.

looked at the beams of the room.

The belt that hung there had a neat cut.

And next to it, there was a short dagger, nailed to the roof.

……

"Master Xu, thank you."

“…… What else are you telling me about this? But when you came to Xuchang this time, didn't your uncle and sister know? ”

"Let her know, she will definitely pull me with her to oppose Lord Li Xiuman's crown. If I don't have any achievements, I might as well go with her...... But after all, isn't this a world achievement? I came here secretly, just because I was afraid that she wouldn't be able to think about it like she had just done...... Fortunately, you have Master Xu. ”

"Well, it's thanks to you that you can think of this method to let Shiji come forward...... But I think you'd better go back to the party as soon as possible. If someone finds out that you have left your post without permission, it is also a big crime. ”

"But my uncle's side is ...... I'm not at ease! ”

"Then you must be careful in Xuchang, don't let people know that you are here."

"I understand."

Zheng Xiujing nodded at Xu Huabiao.
