Chapter 12 The Past (Completed)(1/2)
Xiao Yu leaned back, put down his pen, and said lightly: "What did the person I asked you to investigate?"
Lu Ze took a step forward and touched the tip of his nose: "Weichen seems to be really... it was not the time to come."
Eunuch Sheng shook the corner of his mouth and couldn't help but complain: If you know it's not the time, you should leave.
Chunnan Hou Luze, currently the commander of the Jinyiwei, was his majesty when he was young, and his confidant during the Qianlong period. Now, he is outside the palace and is a close minister of the emperor.
It's just too close.
Xiao Yu said: "Tell me."
Lu Ze said slowly: "This matter is a long story."
When Eunuch Sheng heard this, he wanted to roll his eyes.
Otherwise, this person is extremely hypocritical and "a long story", which is obviously going to be left in the Palace of Yangxin for a night.
Eunuch Sheng sighed and stepped back.
Xiao Yu said: "Sit down."
Lu Ze made a tribute, and the three words "Thank you Your Majesty" have not been said yet.
Then Xiao Yu said, "Lu Yanqing, you will be spared."
Lu Ze sat down and said, "Your Majesty is right at all. As soon as the draft was over, the Ministry of Revenue allocated silver to the Ministry of Works. However, He Chengmao was happy, but the Mu family couldn't laugh."
The reason why the Mu family can't laugh is very simple.
He and the Mu family are family friends and have been in love for many years. In this election, both families sent people to the palace, but the emperor just wanted He Yuru and did not want Mu Wanqi.
Anyone with discerning eyes knows that this is provocation, but the facts prove that what if it is provocation?
The older the method, the better it is.
Xiao Yu pressed his fist against his lips, coughed a few times, and said, "You will personally escort the silver sent to Tongjiqu."
"I accept the order." Lu Ze said again: "According to what Your Majesty had ordered before, I released the news that Your Majesty belonged to the Qin Beauty. Now everyone outside the palace is asking about this Qin Beauty. Zhuangsheng has sold hundreds of thousands of taels of taels."
Xiao Yu said in disguise: "Where is Qin Wang? Have you made any moves?"
Lu Ze hesitated for a moment and said, "From the news I have obtained, Qin Wang is a bit ridiculous in the back house, but his political achievements are innocent. Qin Meiren did indeed have his own birth, and it was not intentionally inserted. These two documents are Qin Wang's life and performance evaluation. One was presented to His Majesty by Zhuang Sheng, and the other was retrieved by me at the Ministry of Personnel."
The document records Qin Wang's life preferences, trivial matters in the back house, and the performance of officials who went from Qian'an to the capital.
A son from a poor family, he entered the imperial examination and was honest and honest, and was a good official in the mouths of the people of An'an.
After seeing it, Xiao Yu raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows. He said, "What did Zhuang Sheng say about Meiren Qin?"
Lu Ze remembered the day he went to Qingfenglou.
He asked Zhuang Sheng about the news about Meiren Qin, but Zhuang Sheng inexplicably told many of the grievances of Meiren Qin since childhood.
So he asked Zhuang Sheng again if there was anything suspicious about Meiren Qin before entering the palace.
Zhuang Sheng pressed the red marks on half of his neck and cut his decisively: "No."
Lu Ze suspected that Zhuang Sheng was drunk, but there was no evidence, so he could only say truthfully: "Zhuang Sheng said that before Qin Meiren entered the palace, she had a miserable life. Her biological mother was angry to death by her aunt at home, but her father was not sure about others. She only had the second girl in the palace in her heart. She had to go to the palace."
Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Is it necessary?"
That day, there was no way she had to look at all?
If you don’t voluntarily, can you still invite the Siji in the palace to your home?
Lu Ze realized his words and immediately said, "It's not that he has to, it's..."
Xiao Yu said: "Can I do anything else to her? If you have something to say, just say it."
Lu Ze thought for a long time before saying, "The Grand Historian of Qin intends to straighten his aunt and send Miss Qin into the palace. Meiren Qin was so angry that he found Chen Siji and learned the etiquette in the palace... But after hearing that after Miss Qin entered the palace, Qin Wang suddenly realized that he had sent the aunt in the palace."
Xiao Yu had no intention of continuing to listen to the Qin Mansion. He turned the white jade ring on his hand and said, "The prescriptions prescribed by Doctor Liao from Sichuan last month are useless, so continue to look for them."
When talking about the miracle doctor, Lu Ze looked dark and said, "Your Majesty, I dare to say today that the eldest prince's illness is not urgent, but some things are imminent. Now, let alone the court, even the people of the world are staring at the lord of the harem of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The position of the crown prince and the descendants are the foundation of the country. I hope Your Majesty will think twice."
Lu Ze's words are implicit, but the meaning inside is that it is very obvious.
The eldest prince has not spoken for three years and is destined to be out of the crown prince. Your Majesty should make plans early.
Xiao Yu did not refute Lu Ze, but said lightly: "Don't worry, wait a little longer."
Lu Ze clenched his fists.
He wanted to say that people cannot be resurrected after death. It has been three years, so don’t wait.
He also wanted to say, what will a prince who is treasonable in his mother's family use to establish authority in the court in the future? If you want the eldest prince to have a stable life, you should call him a free prince.
You don’t want a daughter from a noble family, then Xu Shuyi and Meiren Qin, you have to want one.
However, there is a difference between the monarch and the minister, and he can't say these words.
At the third hour, Eunuch Sheng pushed the door and placed two bowls of ginseng soup on a long table with nanmu embedded bamboo and dragon patterns. He smiled and said, "It's late at night, Your Majesty might as well take a break, drink a bowl of ginseng soup and then discuss matters with Commander Lu."
"Commander Lu, please use it." Eunuch Sheng said with a flat mouth.
Commander Lu.
Lu Ze heard the meaning of gritting his teeth.
He calmed down his emotions and turned his head to smile at Master Sheng, "Is my father-in-law so tired of me?"
Lu Zesheng was fair and handsome, and his smile made him look like a peach blossom, which made Eunuch Sheng no longer annoyed when he saw it.
Xiao Yu raised his eyes to Eunuch Sheng.
Eunuch Sheng was old, but he didn't expect that this man was so shameless that he complained in front of the saint, and could only pile up a few folds and smile for him, "Where is this? The commander is really joking."
Lu Ze nodded and said, "Oh? That may be because I was wrong. I hope my father-in-law will not blame him."
Eunuch Sheng laughed like crying, "How dare you, how dare you, I'll leave now."
After Eunuch Sheng left, Lu Ze continued: "Next month's first martial arts examination..."
At dawn, Eunuch Sheng stood outside the Yangxin Hall and opened his mouth and yawned. The door was opened with a "bang", and Eunuch Sheng's yawn suddenly disappeared.
It was Lu Ze who came out.
Eunuch Sheng narrowed his eyes and said, "Thank you for your hard work in Commander Lu."
Lu Ze said: "It is a top priority for the royal family to spread branches and leaves. How can I do my best to do as my father-in-law?"
Eunuch Sheng looked unsure of what to say.
I just said in my heart: You still know that it is a big deal to grow branches and leaves! Then why are you competing for favor when you come here late at night?
Lu Ze put his hand on Eunuch Sheng's shoulder, smiled again, and leaned into his ear, "If you want me to say, my father-in-law is doing well, so he has to go and remind the empresses of each palace."
Eunuch Sheng's eyes lit up, "What do you say in Commander Lu?"
Lu Ze said in a very serious tone: "The essence of this favor is the word "active". How cold is our Majesty's temperament? The land of the Forbidden City has become frosted. If I weren't very proactive, could I remain favored in the Heart Hall?"
Eunuch Sheng nodded, felt something was wrong, and frowned again.
After a moment, Eunuch Sheng ignored it and said, "Then... how can we take the initiative? We can't take the empresses of each palace to Yangxin Hall."
Lu Ze said: "It's up to you, father-in-law, to put some effort into it."
Eunuch Sheng was confused and couldn't help but say, "Where can we work hard?"
Lu Ze smiled again and said, "I can't see the empresses of each palace, and I can't help much, but..."
Eunuch Sheng actively said: "But what?"
Lu Ze said: "Tonight, there are many Jinyi and I have to deal with the two cases. I won't come to the Yangxin Palace tonight. My father-in-law will seize the opportunity."
After saying that, Lu Ze turned around and left.
"Hey—" Eunuch Sheng looked at his back, took a breath and muttered: "Mr. Marquis, you are so incomparable to join the Jinyiwei."
The sun was shining brightly, and Eunuch Sheng was wandering around the Imperial Garden. His mind was filled with what Commander Lu said. Not to mention it, the more he thought about it, the more he made the more reasonable it was. No wonder he was favored for three years.
Put some effort...
Eunuch Sheng raised his chin and went to see the entire harem.
Concubine Xue from Xianfu Palace, Concubine Li from Changchun Palace, and Concubine Liu from Yikun Palace, none of this will happen.
The newly entered the palace, He Shuyi, the surname He, probably won’t be able to do it either.
Then only Xu Shuyi and Qin Meiren were left.
Eunuch Sheng first went to Yilanxuan in Zhongcui Palace.
After seeing Xu Shuyi, Eunuch Sheng couldn't help but sigh that he was worthy of being the daughter of Xu Bowei, the left censor. He was dignified and did not look impatient. He was a clear person, but if he had a better time than the queen, he would still be a little worse.
Thinking of the Queen Xian, Eunuch Sheng couldn't help but sigh.
She was kind and kind in succession and treated each of them very well. She even remembered the preferences of him, a castrator.
Eunuch Sheng glanced at the sundial in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
I thought of three years ago.
At that time, there were often laughter in Kunning Palace, and the land of the Forbidden City had not yet been frosted.
