Chapter 228: In the Rain
"Yi'er is a prince after all, how can you lock him up in the Zongren Mansion?"
Emperor Xingyuan guessed that it was Concubine Shu who had sued, suppressed the anger in his heart, and explained in a good voice: "He went to Dingbei for disaster relief and made a big mistake. ”
"It's so hard to go to disaster relief, what mistakes can you make? Didn't Yi'er come back with the Wanmin umbrella? ”
Emperor Xingyuan didn't want to tell the Queen Mother about this, but seeing that the Queen Mother had no intention of giving up, he had to say: "This bastard is greedy for ink and silver, and he is suspected of slaughtering the people." ”
The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment.
Emperor Xingyuan took the opportunity to persuade: "It's all this time, the queen mother should go back to the palace to rest as soon as possible." ”
The Queen Mother didn't answer this at all: "Emperor, the mourning family doesn't understand. ”
"What doesn't the queen mother understand?"
"Isn't this Great Xia all our family's, Yi'er got some silver money after a hard trip, isn't that also our family's money?"
How can your own money be called greedy?
The Queen Mother's natural tone made Emperor Xingyuan's chest blocked.
Whenever another person said this, he did not hesitate to order someone to push out the noon gate and beat him to death, but it was his old mother who was nearly seventy years old and illiterate.
Emperor Xingyuan had no choice but to persuade with the most simple truth: "For example, if you are in charge of the family, and a farm in our family is burned, you allocate money from the public account to rebuild, but the people who go to do the work are greedy for the money." The farms were not built, the farmers froze to death and starved to death, and the land was barren. Even if the person doing the work is from our family, shouldn't he be punished? After that, everyone will follow suit, and our family will be defeated......"
The Queen Mother was a little moved, and hesitated: "Then it's serious to be locked up in the Zongren Mansion, right?" ”
"I won't torture him, but I'm not allowed to be free for the time being, what's serious."
"Okay then." Before leaving, the Queen Mother was worried and advised, "Don't be too angry, how can there be an overnight feud between father and son." ”
"My son got it."
After sending the queen mother away, Emperor Xingyuan's face sank, and he ordered his servants to go to Hanlian Palace to spread the word.
In the palace, Concubine Shu paced restlessly.
Can the Queen Mother make the emperor change his mind?
"Niangniang, someone is here in Qianqing Palace."
Concubine Shu walked out quickly.
The messenger was a twenty-seven, eighteen-year-old eunuch.
"Spread the word of the saint, the concubine has no way to teach her son, and from now on reflect on her own body in the Hanlian Palace......" The attendant eunuch hurriedly left after passing the message, as if the Hanlian Palace was a flood beast.
Concubine Shu stayed for a long time, picked up a teacup on the table and threw it on the ground.
The palace people were silent, and only an old lady dared to come over and persuade: "The more this time, the more the mother must calm down." ”
"Hongu just didn't expect—"
I didn't expect the emperor to be so ruthless.
Concubine Shu didn't say the next words, grabbed the old lady's hand and muttered: "The Qianqing Palace came so soon, it means that the Queen Mother will go back soon, did the Queen Mother say that the emperor was moved?" ”
The old lady comforted gently: "The emperor is the most filial to the queen mother, and the queen mother can go back so quickly, which means that the emperor listened to her words." Niangniang relaxed, and when the emperor was angry, His Royal Highness King Qing would be fine. ”
"I hope so......" Concubine Shu felt that it was not so simple, and couldn't help but hope for the Queen Mother.
The sky was completely dark, the crescent moon was silently hanging in the air, and the Hanlian Palace, which had infinite scenery in the past, fell into the silence of the night.
The next day, it was drizzling, and Xin Yu held an oil-paper umbrella and left Shaoqing's mansion.
The letter sent by Liu Zhou yesterday said some things that happened after Miss Zhu stopped the sedan chair and complained, and also mentioned that He Qingxiao would leave for Dingbei today.
When the storm was surging, it was inconvenient for her and Master He to meet and chat in detail, but they couldn't help but take a walk on the street to see if there were any changes.
The streets are full of people, the bustle is still the same, in fact, there is no change, and the capital seems to be like this forever.
Xin Yu put away the umbrella and walked into a teahouse casually.
In fact, it's not casual, this teahouse is near the Shuntian Mansion, and when Xin Yu sat down to drink tea, he listened to some people who came to the teahouse to spend time talking about yesterday's events.
"That little girl was put in prison yesterday, right?"
"Are you saying it's true? Those disaster relief chasms not only corrupted, but also killed? ”
"It must be fake, I have a relative in Pingcheng, and I wrote a few days ago, saying that the government has sent a lot of rice grain......
When I heard that someone had relatives in Pingcheng, many people asked more carefully.
"So, that little girl is talking nonsense! What is she trying to do, isn't she afraid of killing her head? ”
"Maybe it's something wrong with your brain."
Xin Yu didn't bother to listen anymore, so he checked out the account and walked out.
The drizzle was endless, and the discussion of the tea guests behind him was no longer clear.
"Girl, don't listen to those people, they don't use their brains." Xiaolian persuaded intimately.
Xin Yu smiled: "That's true." ”
The people at the feet of the Son of Heaven still know a lot, and some remote mountain people don't even know the geometry of the year name and who will be the emperor. King Qing and others knew this very well, so they dared to do all kinds of evil and deceive the world.
There was a caravan of horses and chariots heading north.
"Girl, it's Lord He!" Xiaolian hurriedly pulled the sleeve of Racine Yuzu.
Xin Yu saw the tall figure on the tall horse at a glance.
At this time, He Qingxiao happened to turn around.
There are many people running in a hurry with their sleeves to protect themselves from the rain, and those with umbrellas are much more calm, and the umbrella flowers are blooming faintly in the drizzle.
He Qingxiao sat on the horse and also saw the girl holding an umbrella.
The subordinates followed He Qingxiao's gaze and recognized Xin Yu, and asked in a low voice: "My lord, it's Miss Kou, do you need to pass the word on your job?" ”
"No need." He Qingxiao quickly turned his head.
A convoy of carriages and horses faded out of sight.
"Girl, Lord He seems to have seen you."
"Hmm. Let's go back to Shaoqing's Mansion. ”
The two went out on foot, and when they went back, Xiaolian called a carriage on the side of the road.
At this time, the Shaoqing Mansion ushered in a headache guest.
"I want to see Miss Kou." As soon as Dai Ze opened his mouth, he was stunned by the old lady who had imagined countless possibilities.
Gu Changbo has not yet come out of the funeral, King Qing was imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion, and what is the prince of Gu Changbo who is still in the heat of filial piety come to do?
Originally, Re Xiaozhong should not have gone to the door of other people's houses, but the old lady also knew that this Guchang Boshi was a bastard, and if he made trouble outside the mansion, he would be in trouble if he wanted to hide in the recent right and wrong.
"Looking for whom?" The old lady confirmed again.
"I'm looking for Miss Kou." Dai Ze's face was numb, and only when he mentioned Miss Kou, his eyes were bright.
The old lady's face couldn't control it, and it was hard to look at.
She thought that the biggest possibility of this gentleman coming to the door was that he was worried that Shaoqing's Mansion would regret his marriage, and as a result, he came to find his granddaughter as a quasi-grandson-in-law?
"Let's go back, it's inconvenient for the girls in our family to see foreign men."
Although Dai Ze seems to be a lot more stable because of his father's death, in fact, how can a person who has been lawless since he was a child change for the better.
As soon as Dai Ze heard it, he jumped up: "The old lady's words are not right, I am not a foreign man, I am her cousin-in-law!" ”
When Xin Yu stepped into the Ruyi Hall, he heard Dai Ze's shout.
