Yonghan 5th year, mid-February.

Torture Cao.

Sima Jun is even older, this eighty-year-old man, rain or shine, never late, let alone leave early, according to the shift and on point.

The affairs of Xing Cao are also handled in a decent manner, with occasional small mistakes and never major mistakes.

In addition, Sima Jun rarely spoke out in the court, which made his 'prestige' more grand, and no matter how big or small his official position was in the court and the opposition, he was a polite 'Sima Gong' and respected him.

Sima Lang came in from outside, his face was full of urgency, and his steps were a little chaotic.

Sima Jun didn't raise his head, and said: "Don't mess up, calm down." ”

Sima Lang paused, then took a deep breath, stepped forward with a deep face, and said in a low voice: "Grandfather, it suddenly went viral outside, saying that it was a slave in the Prime Minister's Mansion, who occupied a large area in Hongnong, hurt the people, and even expelled the officials. ”

Sima Jun paused the pen in his hand, slowly raised his head, and said, "Someone can't wait to get rid of the prime minister?" ”

Sima Lang nodded, although he was full of uneasiness, he still maintained his composure, and said, "Grandfather, I'm worried that this case will fall into the criminal case." ”

'Investigating and dealing with the prime minister' is not a good errand, especially the Yang family of the fourth and third dukes, no matter whether it succeeds or fails, it will only be harmful to their Sima family!

Sima Jun's old face was waveless, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, suppressing the discomfort in his heart, then looked at Sima Lang, and said lightly: "Who do you think will do it?" ”

"Yingchuan ......"

Sima Lang almost blurted out the 'Yingchuan Party', and quickly glanced outside, knowing that it was his grandfather who was taking the school, he thought about it again and again, and said: "I think that the possibility of the official Cao is the highest. ”

Cao Shangshu Xunyou, the official, has been in charge of the appointment of officials of all sizes in recent years, and it is no exaggeration to say that the entire Han Dynasty has officials appointed by him everywhere!

Hongnong is no exception!

Although the Sima family is also from the Yingchuan family, they keep a distance from Er Xun and others, and the outside world does not think that the Sima family is the 'Yingchuan Party', and the Sima family does not recognize it.

Sima Jun had a hint of discoloration on his face, and said, "This matter will not be the handiwork of Er Xun." ”

Sima Lang was stunned for a moment, and then he was terrified, and said, "Isn't it, Zhong Servant Shooting?" ”

Sima Jun was silent for a moment, shook his head and said, "Not necessarily." In the game, you can't trust the unknown, even if you see it with your own eyes. ”

Sima Lang raised his hand and said, "My grandson is taught." ”

Sima Jun's throat was itchy, he wanted to cough, and took a big sip of strong tea into his throat, and after a while, he said: "At this time, the one who wants nothing to happen the most is the Yingchuan Party, and it is most likely not their handiwork." Involving the prime minister, this so-called case will not fall on me in any case. ”

Sima Lang furrowed his brows and said, "Grandfather, if it's not their handiwork, who could it be?" Grandfather has always stayed away from the court, isn't grandfather the best candidate for this case? ”

When Sima Jun heard this, he laughed rarely, and said, "You can think like this, which means that you are indeed serious." However, you overlooked the fact that that he was the prime minister after all. Although Xing Cao's character has gone up, in the end it belongs to Shangshutai, and with my relationship with the Yang family, this case will probably not be resolved. ”

Sima Lang was stunned, the amount of information in his grandfather's words was too great to react for a while.

Immediately, he hurriedly said: "No, grandfather, he, isn't he, not going to change his appearance?" How could it not be? ”

Sima Jun was satisfied with Sima Lang's reaction, and said, "Don't worry, just take your time." ”

Seeing that his grandfather was not panicking, Sima Lang breathed a sigh of relief, and then said in a low voice, "Grandfather, should we do something?" ”

Sima Jun shook his head, suddenly raised his head again, stared at Sima Lang, and said, "Your father? ”

Sima Lang's face changed, but he didn't expect that his grandfather noticed it with just such a sentence, and said a little stiffly: "Yes, my father wants to go back to Luoyang." ”

Sima Jun snorted coldly and said, "Wait until I'm dead." ”

Sima Lang's heart trembled, only to feel that his neck was cold, and he didn't dare to breathe.

On the side of Xing Cao, the Yushitai, who had just moved in, was also discussing this matter, which was different from what Sima Lang thought, they felt that this case would fall to the Yushitai, and Xi Zhicai negotiated with Liu for a long time.

On the other side, Wang Lang, who was appointed as the court captain, didn't care about anything else, so he left the court governor's mansion and went straight to the prime minister's mansion.

The location of Liucao is relatively calm, as if nothing has happened, and he is busy with various things.

Imperial Palace, Yong'an Palace.

Liu Wei sat on the edge of Liu Yu's bed, looking at the little guy with a pale face and a trembling corner of his mouth, his expression was full of worry.

The doctor on the side slowly withdrew his hand and argued with Liu: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Your Royal Highness is just infected with the wind cold, and there is no big problem, Weichen will prescribe a few medicines, and he will be fine after a few days of rest." ”

Liu Bianchang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's hard work." ”

"Wechen doesn't dare." The physician responded, turned around and went to prescribe the medicine.

Liu Wei stretched out his hand and touched the little guy's face, only to feel hot, and his body was cold, and his heart couldn't help but be as heavy as a stone.

This little guy was born with a congenital deficiency and was often sick, especially in winter, which was worrying every time.

Tang Ji wiped her tears on the side, distressed.

At this time, Zuo Li quietly walked in and whispered in Liu Wei's ear for a while.

Liu Wei waved his hand and said, "Keep an eye on it." ”

Zuo Li was just about to retreat, and said, "Your Majesty, Cao Cao's daughter has entered the palace and is playing with the princess." ”

Liu Wei didn't care much, and said, "Let them play, don't let her know." ”

Liu Jing and Liu Yu are dragon and phoenix fetuses, the little girl is only four years old, and until now, the palace has hidden her brother's affairs.

Zuo Li responded, quietly walked and withdrew.

After a while, Tang Ji took the medicine and carefully fed it to Liu Yu.

The little one spat out the medicine, his brow furrowed, and from time to time he let out a moan of pain.

"Come on."

Seeing this, Liu Wei took the medicine bowl from Tang Ji's hand and fed it to the little guy himself.

I don't know if Liu Yu heard it, but when Liu Wei's spoon came to his mouth, the little guy actually opened his mouth.

Liu Wei blew the cold medicine soup and fed it to him little by little.

After drinking a bowl of medicine, the little guy's face seemed to be much better, and his brows showed signs of loosening.

Liu Wei took the handkerchief, wiped the cold sweat for him, and then folded the quilt, sighing lightly in his heart.

He has two sons, this one, and I don't know if he will live to adulthood.

After sitting for a while, seeing that the little guy was relaxed, Liu Wei left Yong'an Palace silently.

At this time, Wang Lang was already in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Yang Biao, who was plump, was sitting at the head of the bridge at this moment, holding a fishing rod, fishing with great interest.

Wang Lang didn't have the etiquette of seeing the prime minister, strode over, and said urgently: "You still have the heart to fish, they are going to do something to you." ”

Yang Biao didn't care, stared at the ice cave, and said loudly: "Mr. Wang, have you eaten?" ”

When Wang Lang heard this, he came closer, looked at his side face, and his heart moved, and said, "Do you have a countermeasure?" ”

Yang Biao didn't turn his head, and said in a cheerful tone: "Mr. Wang, it's not a meal now, there is no food to eat." ”

Wang Lang saw Yang Biao's posture, his voice was not as cautious as before, and he became more and more suspicious, and said, "Are you really not worried? ”

Yang Biao sighed suddenly and said, "Jingxing, I'm finally a little interested, and I've ruined it all for you." ”

Wang Lang was on Yang Biao, as if he had seen the appearance in the Zhongping period, he was stunned and stunned, and said, "You, are you in the book?" ”

Yang Biao's fat face was no longer as tight as before, he smiled calmly, and said, "Well, I was sent to the palace early in the morning." ”

Wang Lang furrowed his brows and said, "For such a long time, there has been no movement in the palace. What exactly are you going to do? ”

Yang Biao looked back at him, and when he saw that Wang Lang was worried, he couldn't help laughing, and said, "Wang Jingxing, Wang Jingxing, ......"

Before entering the office, Wang Lang was calm and comfortable, and he saw the court situation very thoroughly. But since I joined the company, I have been deeply immersed in it, and I have completely lost the clarity of the past.

Wang Lang didn't know, but the court situation was too obscure, and if he wasn't careful, he would never recover, how could he be like before?

However, Yang Biao's reaction made Wang Lang not as nervous as before, sat next to him, and said lightly: "Are you sure to retreat?" ”

Yang Biao's smile slowly retracted, stared at the ice cave, sighed, and said, "Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven." ”

Wang Lang thought silently and did not rush to answer.

Yang Biao's words are not frustrating.

Yang Biao wants to retreat with his whole body, first of all, he has to agree to the government and the opposition, so that he wants to 'do his best' to appease all parties, not only can he not attack him now, but also ensure that after he leaves Shangshutai, he will not be counted by the autumn queen and counterattack.

And 'obeying the destiny of heaven' is the attitude of the palace.

The dissatisfaction of the palace with Yang Biao is not because of Yang Biao's 'inaction' after he became prime minister, but because Yang Biao, as the third prince of the fourth world, and the Yang family are too deeply involved with the past eunuchs, He Jin, and the Yuan family, and the relationship is complicated.

If the palace is always 'suspicious', or even 'grudge', then Yang Biao will definitely not be able to leave in peace, and it will be peaceful.

"What do you think, what is the attitude of the palace?" For a long time, Wang Lang said softly.

Yang Biao's small eyes blinked, his face was expressionless, and he said, "I can't guess." I've tried to find out, and no one has leaked. ”

Wang Lang's expression moved, his brows furrowed subconsciously, and said, "In this way, either Your Majesty didn't mention it." Or, it's secretive and doesn't dare to talk too much. ”

"That's what I thought too."

Yang Biao was calm on the surface, but he was always worried in his heart.

Once he is 'guilty', the consequences are unimaginable, and the Yang family of their 'Four Worlds and Three Dukes' may have to follow in the footsteps of the Yuan family.

After another long silence, Wang Lang turned his head to look at Yang Biao and said, "Do you want to talk to Zhong Xuan?" ”

Zhong Xuan is recognized as the next prime minister to succeed Yang Biao. He is also Wang Lang's former court lieutenant.

Yang Biao shook his head and said, "I talked to Er Xun, they shouldn't be, after all, if I am guilty, it will not be good for them." As for Zhong Xuan, I heard that Liu Yu is going back to Beijing. ”

Wang Lang was stunned and said, "Duke Liu returned to Beijing?" Why? He, where did he come back? ”

Liu Yu is the sixth lieutenant of Zhongping, or the imperial family, in terms of the current government and the opposition, the prestige is grand, and even overwhelms the emperor Fu Song!

Before last year, Liu Yu was a popular candidate to succeed the prime minister, and the government and the opposition were looking forward to it.

Yang Biao said: "I don't know. ”

Wang Lang moved, and said: "In this way, I suddenly remembered that in the palace, it seems that it has never been said that Zhong Xuan will succeed as prime minister?" ”

Yang Biao's small eyes blinked, and he suddenly came to his senses and said, "You mean, Liu Yu?" ”

Wang Lang said angrily: "At this time, you are still pretending to be stupid? ”

Yang Biao smiled a little reluctantly, and said, "That's it, let's take a step and see a step, it's still the same sentence, do your best, and obey the destiny of heaven." ”

Wang Lang was still thinking about Liu Yu's return to Beijing, if Liu Yu was the prime minister, many things would get better.

Liu Yu has always been 'fair', 'steady', and 'knowledgeable', not the kind of person who acts radically.
