Chapter 131: Conversation
Countless eyes fell on Wang Yi's body, as for Ma Shun next to him, although he was the grandson of the main planner of the prince's case back then, there was no comparison with what Emperor Ming said just now.
If it weren't for Wang Yi mentioning the Youzhou case, no one would be stupid enough to mention this matter in front of Emperor Ming, because from the time Emperor Ming rehabilitated King Qi, it meant that Emperor Ming admitted that he was wrong.
This is a very faceless thing, and it will also make Emperor Ming very unhappy.
The unpleasant result is that the person who brings it up will suffer.
But the Ming Emperor didn't, but named Wang Yi as the homecoming marquis, so that people can't help but wonder what the Ming Emperor wants to do.
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Wang Yi and Ma Shun walked out of the Taihe Hall and came to the corridor on the side, there were too many people sent by Jinyiwei to Nanchu, and the Ming Emperor could not see them all, but let Wang Yi and Ma Shun enter the main hall, and as for the rewards, they would send the father-in-law in the palace to Meridian Lane in the follow-up.
Lu Zhong, as one of the big men who led the Jinyi Guard, was also in the Taihe Hall just now, but he was just in the back of the seat.
The door of the Taihe Hall closed slowly, the sun shone on Wang Yi's face, warm, Wang Yi's heart was a little happy, but there were also some doubts, the prince and uncle, the five titles of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Emperor named himself a homecoming marquis, what is the intention, what is the mind, he is still a little confused.
After greeting his colleagues, Lu Zhong came to Wang Yi's side, clasped his fists with both hands, and looked abusive, "I've seen the prince." ”
Wang Yi smiled bitterly and said to Lu Zhong: "Lord Lu joked that I wasn't, I don't know how to come to this homecoming until now." ”
Lu Zhong was relieved on his face, nodded, and was very satisfied, "It's good that you can think so, I'm afraid that you will get carried away if you get the title, but you don't, but since Your Majesty has given you this title, then you will be safe when you come, and you don't have to worry about anything." ”
Wang Yi sighed lightly, it can only be like this, now that he has known through the investigation that Yang Zhao is one of the masterminds behind the Youzhou case back then.
But a Yang Zhao, no matter how powerful he is, how can he calculate a vassal king by himself in the Ming Dynasty, or a vassal king with real power and soldiers and horses, is tantamount to a fool's dream.
So who else?
Wang Yi still needs to investigate, or directly ask Yang Zhao to tell the people behind the scenes, of course, this is also impossible.
"Someone from the palace will come in a while, and the gold that His Majesty has given me, please leave ten taels for yourself, leave twenty taels for me, and the rest, please share it with my brothers, follow my brother in crisis, and there is nothing to express my gratitude, so give him this bit of gold." ”
Lu Zhong's eyebrows were raised, and his expression was delighted, "Okay, good boy, Wang boy, it's really condescending that you don't want to be an official." ”
Wang Yi pointed to the flying fish suit on his body and puffed up his chest, "Aren't I a person from Jinyiwei now." ”
Lu Zhong laughed, glanced at Wang Yi, and saw through it without saying anything.
Walking along the royal road, under the leadership of Lu Zhong, the Jinyi Guards and the others quickly walked out of the scope of the Taihe Hall and walked towards the noon gate.
Not far away, Yang Zhao stood in the sun in an official robe, looking at Jinyiwei and his party, with a calm expression.
Lu Zhong glanced back at Wang Yi and said to Yang Zhao in front of him: "Why, Lord Yang doesn't go to supervise hundreds of officials, and now he is in the business of robbing roads?"
Yang Zhao smiled slightly, and he was not angry, he was born in the Yang family, he had excellent cultivation, and touched his beard, "Lord Lu said with a smile, I just came to congratulate the prince and the prince, they are all courtiers of His Majesty the Ming Dynasty, and the prince was named the homecoming marquis by His Majesty, so lucky, the official prepared a generous gift for the prince, and now it has been sent to Meridian Lane." ”
Wang Yi glanced at Lu Zhong, as if asking if he could talk to him, Lu Zhong nodded slightly, and then hugged his arms angrily, and glanced at Yang Zhao, everyone in his mother knows that Jinyiwei and your Yang family are mortal enemies, and you still give gifts?
Wang Yi walked out in one step and came to Yang Zhao's face, this was the first official meeting between the two people, and it was also the first time that Wang Yi saw Yang Zhao's appearance up close.
Wang Yi said: "Thank you, Lord Yang, but we don't know each other, so the congratulatory gift will be waived." ”
Yang Zhao was not angry, continued to smile, pointed to the imperial road in the distance, and said to Wang Yi: "Lord Wang, let's go together?"
Wang Yi smiled and waved his hand at Lu Zhong in the distance, "Lord Lu, I will catch up with Yang Yucheng, you go first and wait for me outside the noon gate." ”
Seeing this, Yang Zhao took the lead and walked on the royal road, while Wang Yi walked behind with his hands behind him.
Yang Zhao asked, "Lord Wang, do you know His Majesty's intention to do this?"
Wang Yi did not answer Yang Zhao's question, but asked Yang Zhao rhetorically, "Why, shouldn't Lord Yang know everything about His Majesty's actions?"
As soon as these words came out, it was tantamount to pushing Yang Zhao to the edge of the cliff, and a courtier could guess His Majesty's thoughts, but if you understand all of His Majesty's thoughts, then you will not be far from death.
Yang Zhao turned around, stopped, and for the first time looked at this Wang Yi, who had grown from an ant that he could pinch to death with his own hands, to a returning homecountry.
He admitted that he really underestimated Wang Yi and didn't treat him as his opponent, but now it's different.
"The prince has to think twice as an official, and he has to think twice when he speaks. ”
Wang Yi looked puzzled, and said with a smile: "What are you thinking twice? Zai Xia is just a small homecoming marquis, not as good as Yang Yucheng who has been an official in the court for many years. ”
Yang Zhao rolled up the sleeves of his official robe and put his hands behind his back, "I remember that the prince has studied, and it seems that he is still a student of Baizi Academy." ”
Wang Yi's eyes were like a tiger, staring at Yang Zhao, squeaking
The voice came from Wang Yi's mouth, "Thank you Lord Yang for reminding me, I remember it better than you." ”
Yang Zhao was in a good mood, and the depression in his chest was swept away, "Don't be angry, didn't Baizi Academy admit your identity in the end, but it's a pity that the prince can't go there to practice, it's a pity." ”
Yang Zhao continued: "Starting with my nephew, to arresting my clansmen, to assassinating Jiechen. We can say that we have fought no less than ten times. ”
"Maybe my luck is too bad and I lose every time, but does the prince really think you can have the last laugh?"
Wang Yi's hands hidden behind him clenched tightly, "Lord Yang is really confident. ”
"It's easy to say, but even if you kill Liu Cheng and Zhang Xianzong, what's the use?"
"The old man has been an official in Daming for more than ten years, and he can have today's achievements, do you really think I am a waste?"
"In the past, you were just a commoner, even if you joined the Jinyi Guard, but you didn't have the official documents of the imperial court, and you were still a commoner, but now that you are the marquis appointed by His Majesty, then the old man will tell you about the rules of the court. ”
Wang Yi took a deep breath, and then said, "Then ask Lord Yang to make a move, and then you will follow." ”
In addition to the noon gate, Yang Zhao walked a few steps and came to the front of a carriage. Standing beside the carriage, Yang Zhao looked at the courtiers on the imperial road in the distance, intentionally or unintentionally.
"The books of the saints are for others to read, and they are useless for doing things. This sentence is given to you by the old man. ”
"In the Spring and Autumn Period, people often say that useless is a scholar, which is not unreasonable. ”
Yang Zhao looked through everyone, and his eyes fell on Zhang Juzheng, who was walking on the royal road with Yao Xian and Lord Liu, and he didn't know what to think.
"Lord Wang, since you don't want a gift, then the official will save it and leave. ”
Yang Zhao saluted Wang Yi, turned around and walked into the carriage and left. Even as an enemy, there is still etiquette before you completely turn your face.
Wang Yi had to admire Yang Zhao's cultivation, and after taking a deep breath, Wang Yi walked to the place where everyone in Jinyi was sitting.
Li Yuan quickly returned to the Jinyi Guard, just now Li Yuan was left by his father, I don't know what to say, but seeing Li Yuan's extremely happy appearance now, it should be a good thing.
"Wang Yi, you can, you are all Hou Ye, worthy of being my brother, with a future. ”
Wang Yi forcibly took down Li Yuan's arm that he put on his shoulder, "Don't talk about these useless things, how is Miss Xiao now." ”
Li Yuan rubbed his arm and said reluctantly: "What Miss Xiao, now it's Li Wenxuan, Miss Li, you know." ”
Wang Yi was a little anxious and wanted to know about Li Wenxuan, so he had to follow Li Yuan and say, "Okay, Li Wenxuan, tell me about her." ”
