Chapter Seventy-Four: Seeking Que and Criticizing (5)

Lan Yuan walked out of the main hall, but he was not in a hurry to get the medicine, but went around to the corridor on the side of the hall, and saw a small official standing there, holding a document wrapped in yellow satin, as if waiting for him.

"Just now, I was afraid that the prince would be suspicious, and the emperor's will was not heard. Now you can read it to me. Lan Yuan pointed to the document in his hand, it was obviously the Holy Decree.

"Won't you show it to Your Highness?" The man looked at him hesitantly.

"Even if it is handed over to the prince, he will come back to me and ask me, more is better than less. The great sin of the sky is on the top, you don't have to worry. ”

The official unfolded the scroll in disbelief and read: "Tell the prince: The affairs of the new army are related to all departments, and the stakes are not light, and I still need to be careful. You should consult the feelings of the public secretary and choose the best policy, so that the public opinion will not be suspicious of partiality. You went to the Ministry of War, discussed it again with Jieqing and others, and reverted to the rules. If you can't go because of something, you can send someone to know. Regardless of the outcome, the East Palace must not be held responsible. Chin this. ”

"The military department has already discussed, and the fight is over, what can be done?" After Lan Yuan heard the holy decree, he wandered between the two doorposts, "Plus the last paragraph...... I'm afraid that the emperor is suspicious of the prince. ”

These words startled the little official: "What...... What is the method of skepticism? ”

Lan Yuan glanced up at him and said, "Then I'll tell you the truth." It is suspected that His Royal Highness conspired with Jie Wenwu and others to form a party. Now the Liu Party is powerful, and this group of people is precarious, once it falls, it will inevitably affect the pond fish. The emperor didn't want the crown prince to implicate himself and repeat Rong Qing's mistakes. This edict is clearly to warn His Highness to dissociate himself from them as soon as possible, just in case of accidents. ”

After hearing this, the official looked down at the edict for a long time, but he still shook his head: "I can't see these doorways." If it weren't for the Lan attendant's reading of the Wisdom and Wisdom, not only our East Palace, but even the emperor's side would be in danger. It can be described as the work of saving the community! ”

Lan Yuan sneered: "You are underestimating the emperor. With this edict, the suspicion can be completely cleared up at that time. If it is not handled well, we are the only ones who are unlucky, and no one else. ”

He was patiently explaining to the little official, when he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, and then a shout came: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is available? The people from the military department ask to see you! ”

These words frightened Lan Yuan into sweat, he hurriedly walked back to the front door, signaled silence to the sergeant who shouted, and whispered: "The prince is frightened, go into the apse to rest, don't disturb, tell me something." ”

"It was someone sent by the military department to ask about the prince's situation. He was carrying a lantern outside the gate. I wonder if I invited him in? ”

"Dare to pick up a lantern?" Lan Yuan was slightly stunned, "Are these people bent on pulling the prince into the water?" Tell him that the crown prince has been tossed a lot, the situation is completely uncontrollable, and those who want to be sent to death should be sent to him quickly, so that His Highness can be idle for a few days! ”

"Yes!" The sergeant saw that he had a tough attitude, and that he had the confidence to speak, and received the order, and then turned and left.

Lan Yuan looked at the back of the sergeant, couldn't help but let out a heavy breath of relief, turned around and instructed the little official: "You go to the pharmacy for me to get the pills, and I will take them and feed them to His Highness...... By the way, tell him to sleep well, and today's business is over. ”

When the secretary office rushed back to the yamen, a light rain was already falling in the sky. Jiewenwu and the others were still talking secretly in front of the stove, and after hearing the rapid knock outside the door, they all got up and looked at each other, shocked.

"I'll do it." Jiewen took a breath, walked up and opened the door.

"Gift...... Lord Yusuke, "I saw that the clerk was panting, his body was wet in a few places, and the lantern in his hand was also extinguished," the East Palace replied, "The prince has been tossed and frightened, and the situation is uncontrollable!" Don't even let the little ones in......"

Jie Wenwu instantly had a pair of worried eyes and swept towards the two.

"You stand down first." Liu Mian waved his hand and ordered, and the door was closed.

"Fortunately, the old man was not hasty," Liu Mian continued, "If we really follow the common words, our lives will be in danger!" ”

"If the society is in trouble, how can our generation sit idly by!" Jie Wenwu said awe-inspiringly, "Go, go to the forbidden gate and ask the emperor for advice!" ”

Liu Mian dusted off his sleeves and stood up immediately, only Chen Tongpao was still looking straight at the stove, motionless.

"Are you going?" Liu Mian's tone was harsher than before, but it was still a negotiating tone.

"What are you afraid of?" Jie Wenwu took a step forward, "My generation is not Rong Qing, I have never committed a major crime, and I am a prominent minister of the court, what is there to fear?" In the past, this method was used to make Niu Yuan's new deal stillborn. ”

"Two seniors, I can't explain this matter clearly, why do you argue about it? By the death of the second duke, I went back to my ministry. ”

"You want to go back?" Jie Wenwu took a few steps back, and his fat body slowly blocked the door, "I relied on you to point fingers and fan the flames by my side, but now I want to hide when something happens, what do you mean!" ”

Chen Tongpao glanced at him and was speechless.

"Alas, Jieshangshu," Liu Mian said to him with a smile, "these are all colleagues of the Sixth Division, and they will have to rely on it in the future." This also offended Gao Gong, so why bother. ”

Jie Wenwu was finally afraid of Liu Mian's high esteem, and with one side of his body, he allowed his comrades Chen to stride into the rain. He stood under the eaves, looked at the rain that was falling heavier and heavier, and thought to himself: 'I was going to use this as a way out, but now I let him go, but how dare the Liu Party touch me? I have a huge burden on my body, and hundreds of officials and ministers also have a lot of requests from the master, and the willow thief can control it! I thought it was true, so I resolutely grabbed Liu Mian and went out of the yamen together.

The dark clouds completely covered the previous bright moon, and everyone in the dark night had to light the coal lamps and observe the rain curtain that poured down. The forbidden soldiers stationed at the forbidden gate were also dressed in oil suits, but their eyes were still shining, and they were watching closely at any pedestrian on the road.

"Master Shi is here! Master Shi is here! ”

The cheers of the city were everywhere, but they were soon drowned out by the sound of rain.

I saw a sturdy man, dressed in black, walking up to the city gate, and the sergeants he met along the way all bowed down and saluted, not daring to look up - that was the only foreign surname in the dynasty, Shi Xiushen.

"Your Excellency has come here to inspect today, and my subordinates feel extremely honored!" The soldiers shouted hoarsely, trying to get past the incessant rain.

"Although the weather is worse today, I am not idle, I have looked at three or four places in a row, and I am not satisfied; You are the only one here who is conscientious and attentive to guarding the city gates, and the officials are very pleased! Shi Xiushen said with a smile. At this moment, only his bell-like voice could penetrate the entire rain curtain and reach the ears of Jiewenwu under the city gate.
