Mrs. Yuan went home with a heavy heart, and sent her servants to inquire several times, and it was easy to learn that Du gradually knew that she had finally returned, and went straight to the study of the outer house, regardless of the fact that the husband was discussing with her son and nephew, and ordered the younger generations to avoid it, so she recounted her experience in the palace today in detail and added her own opinions.

"The concubine has no intention of interfering in political affairs, but today's experience, she also woke up to the fact that Empress Dowager Wei wants to use the concubine, to be precise, she wants to use her husband to put pressure on the queen! On the way to leave the palace, Mrs. Pan invited the concubine to ride together, and lobbied again, claiming that the queen mother's worries were not unreasonable, and even if the queen reformed the legal system, the means were too impatient, and it was likely that the real purpose was to exclude dissidents and want to gain power, otherwise why He Shilang distinguished everyone, even if there were many impeachments, he would not be removed from office and prosecuted. ”

Mrs. Yuan took a deep breath: "I wait for the women of the house, because of the shallowness and short-sightedness, I shouldn't have discussed the political situation, Mrs. Pan's words and deeds today, I am afraid that it is instructed by Feng Shilang, and the husband is suspicious of the concubine, maybe the husband should really listen to Tao Shilang's warning, be careful with Feng Shilang, and be more vigilant, otherwise...... The concubine is really worried that her husband will be used by others, and her behavior will be detrimental to the society. ”

"Then did the queen promise the queen mother's instructions?" Regarding Feng Jizheng's loyalty and traitor, Du Yanzhi still avoided talking about it.

The queen did not say anything, but only agreed to think twice.

Du gradually knew that he said: "Gong Feng had already expected that the queen would not compromise easily, the queen's purpose is nothing more than to eliminate dissidents, in order to achieve her desires, she will not care about the honor and disgrace of the party at all." ”

Seeing that her husband was still obsessed, Mrs. Yuan was very anxious: "But if the queen agrees to compromise, Feng Shilang will question the queen's dismissal for personal reasons!" Even the concubine's body can be seen clearly, how can the husband and the owner not know, the queen mother uses this means, no matter how the queen chooses, it will cause a discussion? ! ”

"Duke Feng has the grace to save my life, how can Madame be so thoughtful about Duke Feng's intentions?" Having said that, Du Yanzhi's confidence has also been shaken.

Knowing that her husband is not like a wife, Mrs. Yuan sighed: "The husband and the master only talk about their private feelings, which shows that their hearts have already been shaken. ”

Du gradually felt tired, and waved his hand: "Whether the queen has the heart of the country or not, it remains to be seen how to deal with He Chengtai, it's just that, Mrs. is painstaking, the old man is grateful to remember, and please don't worry too much, the old man is not stubborn, because of private abolition, I am ashamed of my surname Du, and the ancestors are loyal and righteous." ”

——

Eleven Niang was indeed embarrassed, because she knew that although most of the crimes listed by the officials were exaggerated and untrue, He Zhan did accept bribes.

At that time, in order to win Wei Haichi's trust, He Zhan had to take the road of power, and it was impossible to be alone in the turbidity current, although he had been careful to avoid disasters to the country and the people, but if others took the initiative to bribe, He Zhan could not refuse.

But He Zhan never recommended the traitor, and some of the bribes he received were "filial piety" to Wei Yuanping, and most of them were used to help the poor, but these two reasons could not be used to defend He Zhan.

He Zhan originally did not seek reputation, but only peace of mind, it was impossible for him to leave evidence for his good deeds, and even those poor people who were helped did not know that the original credit was due to He Zhan, and it was used to defend at this time, which could not convince the court.

Not to mention the money that changed hands and honored Wei Yuanping.

But this is not He Zhan's fault, the responsibility actually lies with Shi Niang, because if He Zhan didn't help her, why would she cling to the Wei Party and take the shortcut of "power rape"?

Of course, Eleven Niang does not want He Zhan to be slandered, but she is now facing only two choices, and to protect He Zhan, she must repeal the new law, which is not only not good for the country, but also not conducive to Pei Zheng Zhaoxue.

How difficult is this choice?

He Zhan invited him to see him, and he still looked like a child: "Fifth Sister finally realizes how difficult it is to be at the peak of power?" The overall situation and affection, sometimes it is really impossible to have both, but Fourteen has to say, Fifth Sister, you are disturbing yourself, in fact, Fifth Sister, I and you are heart-to-heart, okay? I have always been lazy economic career, my ambition is to travel the mountains and rivers to have fun, if it were not for Master Jiang's advice, and then I found out that the reincarnation is actually the fifth sister, I don't want to get involved in the court at all. ”

On a cold day, He Zhan even deliberately carried a feather fan and shook it twice: "When today's son is working hard, the danger of Huaxia will be solved, I can help the fifth sister, and I have done my best, the fifth sister must not compromise with Wei Haichi for the sake of this black gauze hat on my head, resulting in a failure, otherwise Zhan will be ashamed to see Jiang Shi and Xuanzhi in the future." ”

"Fifth sister, Zhan should also be liberated, from now on, the mountains and rivers of the world, wanton and chic, the rest of his life is dissolute, death can be blind, there is no He Zhan above the court and there will be no turmoil, but Xie and Wei's generation still exists, and the disaster is still unfinished! There is no need to dismiss the inspectorate, the fifth sister can simply dismiss me, Zhan, no complaints, only gratification. ”

He Zhan does feel that he does not live up to morality, fame and fortune have always been like clouds for him, he even once hated the court, and was not ashamed to be a child surnamed He, but people can't change their background, although he is free and free, it is inevitable that he will feel guilty about the origin of the clan, and he should not only want to enjoy himself, but ignore the responsibility.

Such a result is nothing unacceptable, but it really makes him feel relieved.

Eleven Niang thought for a long time, and finally did not decide to dismiss He Zhan directly, but allowed to suspend the prosecution, but even Xie and Wei Zhiyi were not arrested and imprisoned, He Zhan's only crime that could not be cleared was only bribery, which naturally saved him from prison, Eleven Niang decided that even if He Zhan had to be temporarily dismissed, He Zhan could not be allowed to take on slander such as misleading the country and dereliction of duty, Wei Haichi had a saying that was extremely right, even if she wanted to investigate the lawlessness, she should not indulge in slander between officials, judicial reform, and not to grant authority, Cool officials are allowed to fabricate charges at will.

He Zhan was suspended from work and stayed at home, and he was not depressed at all, but he somewhat experienced the "suffering of the world".

As in the past, in front of him, scratching his head and posing as a servant, he refused to add fragrance to his red sleeves, and said with a serious face: "Although the slave and maid are lowly, they are also serious people, and they are willing to serve real people all their lives, and they also ask Lang Jun to respect himself." ”

"It's really cold!" Although it was a sigh, of course He Shishi would not take it to heart, that is, he laughed it off.

His wife Wanluo was indignant and wanted to punish the servant, but He Zhan dissuaded: "Let her go, these slaves and maids are already living a difficult life, so they are naturally afraid of a more difficult situation, and it is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages." ”

Another example said: "Don't say slaves, this time the eleventh sister has investigated the lawlessness, even His Royal Highness the prince has slandered, not to complain about the eleventh sister, but to complain about those bitter masters, specifically the Zhen Yan case, the women who were tortured and killed by him, among which there are many people who were sent to the door by their fathers and brothers, and the women themselves are greedy for wealth and wealth, and they are willing to be the concubines of Zhen Xuan, but they didn't expect to end up being tortured and killed, and the prince didn't know who to listen to, saying that those women and the bitter masters were to blame, and they thought so, and they complained to the queen, and the weak were not all innocent. Just as the saying goes, there must be something hateful about the wretched. ”

Wanluo's attention was successfully diverted by He Zhan, and she said with concern: "How can the queen answer?" ”

"The queen rewarded the prince with two bursts, first saying that those women who coveted wealth and invited themselves to be concubines, although their conduct was wrong, but their sins were not as good as death, not to mention that because their father and brother were greedy for money and profit, they were sent to a desperate situation, how innocent and pitiful, how hateful? In this world, some people regard the law of the jungle as the principle of heaven, but the sages and sages, regardless of faction, all advocate those who are in high positions, holding the power of life and death, and cannot lose their compassion, there is no perfect person in the world, if the offense is severless, it is innocent of death, and how many people can survive? ”

Borrowing the prince and waking up Wanluo, He Zhan said the main topic: "I ask for recall, although the eleventh sister can't bear it, but the times are persecuting, and in the end it can only be like this, I don't want to stay in the capital, taste the heat and coldness of the world, and later plan to pack my bags and go to the mountains to live for a while, the mountains are secluded and bitter, and Wanniang doesn't have to accompany me." ”

"The concubine is not afraid of hardship, but she is just worried...... Disturb the elegance of the Lang Lord. Wanluo lowered her eyes deeply, and her thick eyelashes concealed the sense of loss.

"What is elegant, if Wanniang is not bitter, you can go with her, the fish is still listening to the teaching, handed over to the aunt to take care of, and I am not afraid that he will be naughty, let's bring the algae."

He Zhan and Wanluo's young daughter, nicknamed Zao'er.

Wanluo was overjoyed, and immediately went to Zhang Luo to pack, He Zhan saw that she was busy, and finally sighed secretly.

He owes his wife a lot, and it is indeed a lot, although he has not accepted a concubine over the years, but his temperament dictates it, and it is still inevitable to show mercy everywhere, and Wanluo, although he respects each other like a guest, there has always been an inexplicable estrangement among them, until now, all secrets can no longer be an excuse, but he still can't really have a heart-to-heart relationship with his wife.

Xu chose Wanluo in the first place, not out of admiration, but because he needed such a wife.

But He Zhan could feel Wanluo's affection for him, but it was really difficult for him to repay the same amount of sincerity.

It's like...... He really didn't want Wanluo to accompany Bishan, but after noticing her loss, he could only change his words against his will.

When he was young, he was happy to be spontaneous, but he didn't think about being limited by marriage at all, at this time He Zhan was quite remorseful, maybe he shouldn't have implicated Wanluo such a virtuous and simple woman for the sake of the overall situation, he knew what she was expecting, but he couldn't give it.

It's my fault.

He Zhan sighed secretly: Then, try your best to make amends for the rest of your life, at least I won't let you feel it, I just pity and feel guilty.

But Wanluo, who was overjoyed, did not expect that the trip to Bishan would not be possible.

Eleven Niang ordered He Zhan to be suspended, which is a reply to Empress Dowager Wei - I will never compromise!

Of course, Wei Haichi will not simply hope that the queen will act according to her wishes, and her counterattack will not be limited to the deposition of He Zhan.

Soon, Dali Siqing was cautious and "discovered" an important case - He Zhan had already colluded with the Turks, and through Chai Tori's wife Liu, he lobbied Chai to sacrifice the city for glory, and later crimes such as violence and slaughter of the people, all of which were for He Zhan to lobby Liu, admonishing Ashina Qisang to cause tragedy, He Zhan's purpose was to arouse public anger and question the Queen Mother's ruling and misleading country!

This is a heinous crime, and he seriously kneels down and begs the queen to approve the arrest of He Zhan and interrogate him strictly!

Eleven Niang's insistence has angered the Queen Mother, and it is decided to put He Zhan to death!

In the Chang'an Palace, Wei Haichi smiled with a smile: "The Liu family will not give up in order to achieve the goal, then, let's see if you have such a ruthless heart, and use He Zhan's head to sacrifice the flag!" ”
