Chapter 398: Being Taken Advantage of
Chen Tairan sat in the carriage, and his relatives hurriedly wiped his wounds, but the wounds were too deep, and the blood would flow out again immediately after wiping it. And Chen Tairan was in a cold sweat in pain, he really regretted it at the moment, he shouldn't have stopped Dingguo Gong from talking.
Someone told him, don't look at the power of Dingguogong, but he is very kind and reasonable. After he took control of Shangjing, he only made a move against the first emperor and did not embarrass others, which is a good explanation. It was after hearing such words that he dared to go to Dingguogong's side today.
The words "pawn" came to his mind again, and he realized that he was really being used.
The carriage arrived at Chen's mansion after a while, and he was carried into the mansion by his subordinates. When the Chen family heard that he had been beaten, they all hurriedly ran over to see, and for a while there was a commotion in his yard. By the time the doctor had bandaged him, the wound was no longer so painful and his brain was back in operation.
After sending others away, he left Mrs. Chen behind and asked, "How about you see the Duchess of Dingguo today?" ”
The old husband and wife, Mrs. Chen was still very worried about him, and did not answer his question, but said, "Master, how are you?" Dingguo Gong was too ruthless. ”
Chen Tairan's brows furrowed into pimples, "I'm fine, just raise it." Say it quickly, what did the Duchess of Dingguo say. ”
Mrs. Chen's face was a little confused, "I said vaguely, in the future, when Sister Rui enters the palace, she will obey the county lord of Kangle, but Duchess Dingguo didn't answer my words at all, and directly changed the topic." ”
Chen Tairan leaned on the couch, frowned and thought for a while, and then said, "Could it be that the Duke of Dingguo doesn't want to marry his daughter to the emperor at all?" I was also whipped by him today because I mentioned her daughter to the emperor. ”
"Won't it?" Mrs. Chen said: "Dingguo Gong abolished the first emperor, he is not the emperor, and he does not let his daughter be the queen, what is he trying to do?" ”
"He and the first emperor are either you dead or I live, and his purpose is probably to save his life." Although Chen Tairan couldn't understand Xiao Huai's approach, he felt that only this reason could make sense.
"This...."Mrs. Chen is also very incomprehensible, if you don't have a good future in front of you, is Dingguo Gong a fool.
Chen Tairan closed his eyes and thought for a while, and then said, "It seems that the emperor really doesn't want to be drafted." "
"Then what should we do with Sister Rui? She can't afford to wait! ”
Mrs. Chen was still struggling with the fact that her daughter could not enter the palace, but Chen Tairan glanced at her dissatisfiedly and said, "Who said to you to let Sister Rui enter the palace?" ”
Mrs. Chen was stunned for a moment, "No one told me!" Sister Rui is the same age as the emperor, and she has met a few times, and our concubine and the queen mother have some affection, if the emperor drafts, Sister Rui will definitely be able to enter the palace! ”
Seeing that she still didn't understand that she was being used, Chen Tairan felt a burst of anger in his heart and roared, "Where did you hear these words? Who told you? ”
Mrs. Chen was flustered for a while, and thought for a while: "A few days ago, when I attended a banquet, several ladies talked about the emperor's draft, and I... I think that if it is a draft, our sister Rui will definitely be selected. ”
The old husband and wife, Chen Tairan still knows her very well, and he knows that he is not completely telling the truth by looking at her expression. He sat up straight, stared at Mrs. Chen and said, "You still can't figure it out?" We were taken advantage of. ”
"This ....." Mrs. Chen looked confused, she really didn't feel that she was being used, she really felt that her daughter should enter the palace to be a mother.
Chen Tairan saw that she still didn't understand, and the anger in his heart was even stronger. He was annoyed with Mrs. Chen and also with himself, and as soon as Mrs. Chen told him to let her daughter enter the palace as a mother, he was moved.
Clenching his fists tightly, he asked, "Who else told you anything other than those ladies talking about the draft?" ”
Mrs. Chen thought for a while, and then said, "It's my aunt's third daughter-in-law." ”
Chen Tairan frowned and thought about who this person was, and after a while he said, "She is from the Zhao family." ”
"Yes, she is the concubine of the cousin of Lord Zhao of the Cabinet." Mrs. Chen said.
Chen Tairan clenched his fists and panted, and Lord Zhao of the cabinet was punished by the emperor, but he still did not give up. They are also stupid and are used by him.
"This.... This... Is she really trying to hurt us? Mrs. Chen didn't feel that she was being taken advantage of, because this was what she thought in her heart.
Chen Tairan glared at her fiercely, and was about to say something of reprimand, when there was a knock on the door, and then the housekeeper's voice was a little flustered, "Master, the holy decree, the holy decree has come to the palace." ”
It's no wonder that the housekeeper was flustered, Chen Tairan was beaten by Dingguo Gong at the gate of the palace, and at this time, he came to the holy decree, and he knew that it was not a good thing to think about it.
Chen Tairan and Mrs. Chen in the house were also flustered, and the two hurriedly got up and walked out, they also had a hunch that this holy decree was definitely not a good thing.
The family walked to the hall in a panic, and a justice sat there drinking tea. Seeing that the Chen family had arrived, he got up and said, "Lord Chen, take the order." ”
Chen Tairan hurriedly knelt down, and the rest of the Chen family also knelt behind him. The eunuch opened the holy decree and began to read, the general meaning of the holy decree was that Chen Tairan did not distinguish between dignity and inferiority, and was fined for one year.
"Thank you, Lord Long."
Chen Tairan was relieved when he heard that it was only a one-year fine, and then wiped his sweat and sent the eunuch to the gate of the mansion, of course, he gave a lot of silver. The eunuch took the purse containing the silver ticket back to the palace, and then went to the imperial study to reply.
Li Jingyi heard that the holy decree had been passed down, and waved his hand to let him out. Then he said to the great eunuch Ye Deben: "Zha Chen Tairan." ”
"Yes."
Ye De hurriedly went out to make arrangements after answering the question, and at the same time ordered a piece of wax for Chen Tairan. As long as he is an official in the court, he will definitely be able to find out some things after checking, not to mention that Chen Tairan is not an upright and honest official.
Punish him for a year, but the emperor doesn't have his handle for the time being, but he can't swallow that breath and just find an excuse to punish, and the big head is behind. And he believes that the husband and wife of Dingguo will never let him go.
Some people just live in peace, but they have to find their own death.
Ye Deben guessed well, Tang Shuyi and Xiao Huai were talking about the Chen family. Hearing that Xiao Huai shook Chen Tairan with a whip, Tang Shuyi's heart was happy.
Today, Mrs. Chen came to her and said those nonsense words, and she was also angry. But Mrs. Chen didn't say it explicitly, she also had to take into account Yuzhu's reputation, so she didn't scold her on the spot.
As for the draft, in fact, she and Xiao Huai don't plan to take care of it, and leave everything to Li Jingyi to deal with. But what they didn't expect was that some fools ran to them and said that they didn't. They can't ignore this, otherwise some people really think that anyone in their Dingguo Mansion can step on it.
