Although he forgot the doubts that had almost been said because of gossip for a while, Liu Yan only needed to review the reasons that several people were talking about earlier, and quickly remembered the topic, he could barely understand why Shi Niang concluded that he could successfully provoke Yuan Dezhi to kill Concubine Shu, but he really couldn't figure out how Shi Niang deduced that Yuan Dezhi had also participated in Pei Zheng's rebellion case, and was even very likely to be one of the contributors.

After He Zhan listened to Liu Yan's question, he was quite annoyed that iron could not become steel, and he almost had to reach out to reward the two blows of "already a father", because Eleven Niang was in front of him, He Zhan didn't dare to be too rough with the little brother who was very beloved by the fifth sister, coughed heavily, and put on a serious appearance of being a good teacher: "Through the Concubine incident, Yuan Dezhi really has the Queen Mother to value this matter, San Lang has no doubt?" ”

Seeing that Liu Yan nodded twice, He Zhan asked again: "So, why does the Queen Mother value him so much, and even surpasses Mao Wei and does not lose to Xie Raoping, Yuan Dezhi can not be related to the Queen Mother, if he has not made great contributions, why does he have such weight?" ”

"That must be a meritorious service, but when Pei Zheng was in the case, he was just a local assassin, far away in the south of the Yangtze River, how could he know the situation in Kyoto and participate in it? Maybe it's the rest of the credit. Liu Yan was still confused.

"Over the years, what are the few things that can be regarded as a real credit to Empress Dowager Wei? First of all, after defeating Xiao Cui, he will be saved; secondly, it was the case of Pei Zheng, and the Queen Mother was in power from then on; Moreover, it is to liquidate Xue Feng a year ago, and then force the right to cede power today. Let's talk about the first thing first, when Empress Dowager Wei and Empress Cui fought the law, even Mao Wei was just a local assassin history, and Xie Raoping was not a climate at that time, and Empress Dowager Wei may not even have heard of such a person as Mao Wei, let alone Yuan Dezhi; Besides, a year ago, the Queen Mother forced us to hand over the power again, and we all know that it has nothing to do with Yuan Dezhi. ”

Seeing that Liu Yan had no objections, He Zhan knocked a few cases heavily: "Yes, only with Pei Zheng's case, he can make a contribution to attract the attention of the Queen Mother." ”

Eleven Niang also said at this time: "After the Pei Zheng case, Yuan Dezhi colluded with Liu Xuanqing to send his niece into the palace, He Yan was obviously repulsed, but the Queen Mother made her own initiative to make her a virtuous concubine, I have always felt quite strange about this matter, but if Yuan Dezhi played a key role in the Pei Zheng case, this matter can be interpreted as the Queen Mother's commendation of her merits." ”

"There is one thing that I have always thought is weird, before the Pei Zheng case, now on the throne, although the Queen Mother was forced to promote Xie and Mao, but at that time, the two of them were concentrated in Jingzhao, since the two of them had no contact with Yao Qian, who led the troops outside the pass, the Queen Mother was a woman in the deep palace, and it was impossible for Yao Qian to intersect, so how was Yao Qian bought by him and colluded to frame Pei and Zheng's two clans?" He Zhan frowned and said: "It's just that if Yao Qian recommended Yuan Dezhi, Yuan Dezhi was also an official in Jiangnan back then, and it seems impossible to connect with Yao Qian. ”

Eleven Niang bowed: "I also thought of this strangeness, and even thought, Xie Raoping has never been released, how did he form an alliance with Mao Weida, who is far away in the south of the Yangtze River?" Originally, although I had some doubts, because of my limited energy and manpower, I never thought of investigating this matter in detail, but now that I have basically concluded that Yuan Dezhi's heavy treatment should be related to Pei Zheng's unjust case, then it must be verified that no matter whether it is the mastermind or the accomplice, as long as it is involved, I will not let go of any of them. ”

He Zhan agreed: "Fortunately, since there is an inference at this time, there is always a goal in the investigation, I will arrange it to see if any of the Queen Mother's henchmen have been to Jiangnan before and after He Yande's prince." ”

After the matter was discussed and agreed, He Zhan talked about the progress of Ju Shinan: "After he left the palace, he really lived in and Enhou placed another garden in Zhongnan Mountain, although it was a simple residence, but it won the reputation of the Empress Dowager's trust, which naturally attracted many people who tended to be inflammatory, and the personnel exchanges were complicated, but all of them were Kyoto nobles, or those who wanted to climb the Empress Dowager's henchmen, there was no suspicion on the surface, only one person went to the meeting, but it attracted my attention, Eleventh Sister, you may guess who it is?" ”

Let's talk about how many days ago, Eleven Niang was still in the palace, waiting for the big battle between Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu, in Wei Xiang's mansion, the charming Western Lady prepared a table of wine banquet with her own hands this day, and she was not afraid of the wind and cold. The western woman sobbed and cried, and the pear blossoms brought the rain so coquettishly.

When Wei Ruiqiang asked and asked softly, the beauty finally said what was on her mind: "The concubine's parents died early, she was lonely and miserable since she was a child, and now she is away from her hometown and abandons the well, and she especially misses her ancestors during the festival or when the wind and rain are sad, but when her parents died, the concubine was still young, and she couldn't even remember her voice and smile clearly, and she was often ashamed and unfilial...... The concubine heard that Chang'an came to Mr. Ju, who would summon spirits, and often thought that if there was that lucky to ask the master to cast a spell, if the concubine could meet the soul of her parents again, she remembered that the voice of the ancestors was also a little regretful, only to hear that Mr. Ju was edicted to drive, and I only thought that there was no such opportunity, but recently I heard that Mr. Ju had left the palace, so he meditated in Zhongnan Mountain, and the concubine regenerated expectations...... I am only afraid that it is as cheap as a mustard, and I cannot be superior to others. ”

I heard that it was such a trivial matter, how could Wei Rui disappoint the beauty, and immediately patted his chest to guarantee that the western girl would get her wish, and finally coaxed the beauty to burst into tears and laugh.

Therefore, the other garden where Ju Shinan lived ushered in this pair of distinguished guests the next day.

Wei Xiang's son came forward and implored Ju Shinan to summon spirits, so as to comfort the concubines and concubines, Ju Shinan would not give face, but the spiritualism must be carried out in the secret room, and outsiders cannot be present, so the two naturally have a chance to be private.

The doors and windows had just been closed, and Ju Shinan and the West Lady had just stepped into the hanging thick curtain, and the West Lady was Shi Shiran and smiled: "Third Brother Ju, don't come to harm?" ”

After taking a seat, the West Lady followed up and asked a word if the King of Yoshikawa County heard it, he would be shocked!

"What the young master ordered, Third Brother Ju has been successfully completed? That dog emperor should not be long! ”

Regarding Ju Shinan's private conversation with the Western Woman, He Zhan could not know even if he had great powers, but among Ju Shinan's many visitors, it was this Western Woman who attracted his attention.

"In the past year, Xi Yu and Yu Wensheng's favorite concubine have appeared in the West Market Clamp Shop no less than five times, although I have not found out what is strange about the Clamp Valerian, but I can basically conclude that Xi Yu and Xuanji 8/9 out of 10 are in the Clamp Shop meeting, Xi Woman's identity is by no means simple, so she went to see Ju Shinan this time, maybe there is something weird." He Zhan asserted.

"Even you can't find out that Na Xiyu's life experience, and she is planning to break into the aristocratic mansion, but it was only after she entered the Wei Mansion that Yu Wensheng climbed on Wei Yuanping, was promoted by him, and was transferred back to Beijing." Eleven Niang pondered for a moment: "It seems that I have to find a way to meet that Xuanji, or have a chance to test and test what her attitude is towards that Valerian shop." ”

After discussing the matter, Liu Yan saw that he couldn't help anything, and he was worried about his wife and children at home, he finally looked forward to a day off, seeing that he didn't need to go out to socialize, he cherished this opportunity to spend a day with his wife and children, so he politely refused He Zhan's hospitality to stay for dinner, and couldn't wait to trot home, causing He Zhan to support his forehead again and again, and sighed: "I tried my best, San Lang's temperament is straightforward, and it is indeed not suitable for insight into people's hearts and tricks." ”

Eleven Niang didn't care: "He is a child of the family, he should be glorious and beautiful, and he should not be involved in treacherous conspiracy, if the monarch is virtuous and the country is safe, although the officialdom will always be inevitably intrigued, but as long as he does not want to be powerful and ambitious, it is not that there is no place for a righteous man and a gentleman, San Lang or Shao Jiu, if in the world of rule by virtue, there is no need to change the nature of Tibet, just that, those open and secret battles let us worry about it, and hope that Jiang Gong's fortune is true, if Emperor Ming comes to the world, when the prosperous era of virtue rule is restored, there will be a time for them to shine. ”

Speaking of Shao Guang, He Zhan sighed again and again: "Although Xuan Zhi and Ning Zhi repaired the book and persuaded him, Bo Rong's temperament did not have the slightest restraint, and he went to Lingnan on the way to his post, because he took pity on a person who was bullied by Haoqiang, and couldn't help but make a fuss about the county government, he himself was almost hit by the board, but fortunately, the county order searched the job from his bag, so he didn't dare to make a mistake, but it happened that Haoqiang was friendly with the county order where he went to work, and Borong was excluded again, this time he didn't even catch Fa Cao, and was squeezed out to the outskirts of the county's native village, fortunately, I have always left someone in Lingnan." , the Xue family also has a lot of old posts in Lingnan, so they will not let Borong be persecuted by those barbarians. ”

"Shao Jiulang's temperament, it is not useless to be tempered more in Lingnan, although the officialdom is corrupt now, it is not all greedy and deceitful, especially in Lingnan and other places far away from the political center, and it is not allowed to be degraded by the imperial court at present, Jiulang may not meet like-minded people there, and maybe it will be beneficial to us in the future." Eleven Niang is obviously helpless against Shao Guang's temperament, but according to her heart, she admires this kind of upright gentleman very much, since she can't be convinced, she has to let him go, at most it is just to spend some effort to keep him safe, a little tribulation is not a big deal, just don't worry about your life.
