Chapter 330: Refusal
Shen Nianyi shook his head, most of the Xishu people who stayed in Tiandu City were doing business, Liangzhao Mountain was originally a sparsely populated place, how could these people know the inside story, there were headless flies all over the street, it was better to wait for Ah Yi to wake up, maybe he could find the doorway.
I didn't expect that my parents would touch such a remote place, my father has always done things in a decent way, could it be that my mother proposed to hunt for curiosity, so I walked to the junction of the two countries, this Liangzhao Mountain, maybe there are some secrets hidden.
He took out the bracelet that his mother gave Ah Yi, probably thinking about why his mother could take it off, this long journey, his mother was afraid that it would be reduced, so the jade bracelet that was originally stuck very tightly could be easily taken off, but his mother deliberately left such a commemorative object to Ah Yi.
It was prescient and knew that it was easy to enter the mountain and difficult to get out, so he deliberately left a piece of evidence that could allow him to distinguish the true from the false at a glance, or rather, his mother deliberately wanted Ah Yi to go to Tiandu City to find him.
Shen Nianyi boasted that his thoughts had always been concise and clear, but he was put on the table by his biological mother, and he couldn't guess the real purpose of Ah Yi's appearance, and the terrain of Liangzhao Mountain was really weird, which made people suspicious.
"My lord, I'll let them continue to rummage, even a little more words is good, if the adults are anxious to understand the situation, it is not so difficult to talk to the emperor in person." Qiu Cheng knew that the situation was serious, otherwise Shen Nianyi would never be in a hurry like this.
His finger was on the corner of the table, and he tapped lightly twice: "Perhaps, you should really enter the palace once." ”
"Things have to be traced back to the source, that's what adults taught me." Qiu Cheng said in a low voice.
"Yes, that's right." It's just that once he opens his mouth to the emperor, he must tell the truth about his parents' accident together, and when the time comes, if it reaches the ears of the queen mother again, it is inappropriate to frighten the old man, and he must say it subtly and tactfully.
Without further ado, since he decided to enter the palace, Shen Nianyi arranged for the inspection here not to stop, and entered the palace alone, when he arrived at the palace gate, the genius had just dawned, and the guards at the palace gate rubbed their eyes and couldn't believe it: "Shen, Shen Shaoqing!" ”
He nodded, signaled the waist card that could enter and exit the palace at will, strode in, his ears were very good, and he heard the whispers of the guards behind him, and came to the palace at this time, could it be that something big happened outside, he lowered his head and smiled bitterly, there were too many eyes inside and outside the palace, and it was almost impossible to hide it.
When Gonggong Mo saw him, he was taken aback again: "Shen Shaoqing, the emperor hasn't gotten up yet." ”
Of course he knew, but he just wanted to see the holy car as soon as possible, as for where the emperor stayed last night, it was really inconvenient for him to ask, fortunately, Gonggong Mo, the old slippery head, guessed the right thing, and before he could speak, he said first: "It's time for Shen Shaoqing to come, the emperor watched the music in the imperial study last night too late, and he didn't have to go anywhere, so he went to bed in the study." ”
Although Shen Nianyi is a foreign minister, it is inconvenient to ask more, but he also knows that the emperor has been very fond of Lin Guifei in recent years, Mo said that there is no important matter recently, that is, when he was at war with Shuntian and Tian, it did not prevent the emperor from going to see Lin Guifei at night, it seems that the two must have had some estrangement.
"Shen Shaoqing, please come with me, wait a while, maybe the emperor will wake up." Father-in-law Mo didn't seem to have a good night's sleep, and his eye circles were heavy, and a little eunuch sent a bowl of white porridge over, and the three of them stuttered and ate their stomachs, and their complexion eased a little, "Shen Shaoqing don't want to laugh, he is old, and his body is useless, and there were people who didn't fit his eyes for three or four days in the past, but now he doesn't stop his eyes for a day occasionally, and even people can't see clearly." ”
After speaking, he put down the empty bowl and scolded: "If you don't have long eyes, why don't you hurry up and bring a bowl to Lord Shen." ”
As soon as Shen Nian saw that he knew how to behave, he didn't excuse himself, anyway, he was waiting, waiting for the hot porridge to be delivered to him, and when he took a sip, he realized that it was a bowl of bird's nest porridge with rock sugar.
In this way, after waiting for half an hour, Grandpa Mo came out to pass the word, saying that the emperor asked him to go into the imperial study to speak, Shen Nianyi received Grandpa Mo's favor this time, and walked in quickly, the emperor's complexion was not very good, after all, he slept in the imperial study for one night, and no matter how he thought about it, he knew that he was gambling with the same people.
"Shen Aiqing hurried to the palace early in the morning, is there something important?" The emperor yawned, obviously not waking up yet, "What went wrong?" ”
"Your Majesty, I would like to ask the Emperor for permission to use the case files in the Imperial Study." Shen Nian said straight to the point.
The emperor only woke up for six or seven minutes, and his words were more effective than sobering soup, and his eyes widened: "You want to check the information in the imperial study, what is the important case for?" ”
"It's for Weichen's family affairs." Shen Nianyi said truthfully.
The emperor gasped and said, "Father-in-law Mo, go and bring the porridge and side dishes first, so that I can slow down." ”
Father-in-law Mo was pushed away, and the emperor said with a playful smile: "No matter how complete the dossier records in the imperial study are, Sun Shining's background cannot be found. ”
Shen Nianyi suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and said softly: "Your Majesty, Weichen's parents have lost their traces in Liangzhao Mountain on the border of Xishu Kingdom, and Weichen has checked all the information at hand, but he can't get more records of Liangzhao Mountain, so he thinks that maybe there are still some records in the imperial study." ”
The emperor was really taken aback this time: "You mean Shen Xiang is missing!" ”
"Weichen wants to go to Liangzhao Mountain to find out the whereabouts of his parents, but he is thousands of miles away, and he is really embarrassed for a while, if he ignores it, these cases in his hands have not yet been resolved, I am afraid that he will leave a bad reputation for disloyalty, but let his parents disappear, and turn a blind eye, and he will be infamous for unfilial piety." Shen Nianyi raised his eyes and looked at the emperor and said, "So, Weichen begged the emperor to be kind and agreed to Weichen." ”
"This matter must not be known to the Queen Mother." The emperor's thoughts were surprisingly consistent with his, but the words he said were simply desperate, "It's just that it's useless for me to promise you, there is no record of Liangzhao Mountain in the imperial study." ”
"How did the emperor know?"
"Because I've rummaged through it more than a decade ago, and I've searched through almost every book in the corner, and it's still gone. It wasn't until I saw the uncropped edges in one of the maps that I realized that someone had taken the first step and taken all the information. ”
Thinking like this, the emperor suddenly opened his mouth, took out several related scrolls, and groped with his fingers, and sure enough, they were all cut in advance, if it wasn't for one of them not being handled properly, it would be difficult for him to find out the reason.
"Your Majesty, what is the secret of Liangzhao Mountain?" Shen Nianyi didn't care about anything else, the safety of his parents was imminent, just looking at the emperor's expression, he could know that the other party knew far more than him.
"I don't want to say it." The emperor refused, "There are some things that it is not good for you for me to say them. ”
Shen Nianyi was silent, the emperor had directly refused, as a minister, it was impossible for him to put pressure on the emperor, and he had already made the matter clear, and the emperor still refused to let go, which means that Liangzhao Mountain does hide a big secret, and his parents are not greedy for the beautiful scenery over there and unintentionally settled.
A few words from Ah Yi came to mind, his parents have been boarding in the village at the foot of the mountain for a while, if it is just to see the beautiful scenery along the way, they can't stay in the same place for so long, the emperor said that more than ten years, and the vision of Liangzhao Mountain suddenly has a related connection!
The emperor didn't want to speak, as soon as he heard Liangzhaoshan, he was inexplicably a little frightened, and thought that Shen Nianyi had spied on the secret, and then looked at his expression carefully, he was slightly relieved, it seemed that Shen Nianyi didn't know much, Shen Xiang still kept his promise and didn't tell him about it.
The silence in the room is almost depressing, Shen Nianyi has never encountered such an unsolvable problem, and he thinks that although borrowing the imperial study is also a big deal, the emperor will at least refuse it without thinking about it, as if the real murderer is in the mouth of the person in front of him, as long as he says a name, he can solve it, and those who know it must be tight-lipped.
If you change someone, you may be able to pry the other party's mouth, but the other party is the emperor who can't move anyone, Shen Nian smiled bitterly again and again, unless the emperor himself is willing to speak, he can only go home, and then continue to inquire about other clues.
The emperor didn't speak, he didn't leave, he didn't stay, Grandpa Mo knew to avoid suspicion, but he didn't go back, and the scene was embarrassing, and the emperor's face was also a little stupid, as if he was thinking about how to remedy the words that blurted out, Shen Nianyi's ability, he knew it better than anyone else, and Fang Cai's refusal had already shown a few details.
If so, Shen Nianyi has time to think about it, I'm afraid he can guess a lot before and after, but Shen Nianyi's expression is still very calm, there is no surprise that he is about to get close to the answer, or perhaps, he has really seen too many big scenes, even if he guesses, he will not reveal it from his expression.
As usual, there are no courtiers in the world who the emperor can't see through, and Shen Nianyi is afraid that is the exception.
After a stalemate for a while, the emperor opened his mouth first and said: "Shen Xiang is cautious, presumably the disappearance is just a temporary contact, there will be no other differences, Shen Aiqing doesn't have to worry too much." ”
Shen Nianyi looked squarely at the emperor and asked: "Weichen just wants to ask, Weichen's parents arrived at Liangzhao Mountain and were eager to enter the mountain to explore, is it the emperor's dictation?" ”
"It's not!" This is a true sentence, so the emperor also secretly breathed a sigh of relief and lied in front of Shen Nianyi, that kind of taste was really suffocating.
"If not, Wechen knows it." Shen Nianyi saluted again, "Weichen has nothing else to do, so he will resign first." ”
The person had already arrived at the door, but the emperor called out to him: "Shen Aiqing, stay first." ”
