The eldest lady closed the door in Yiningju and questioned Luzhi. Luzhi finally managed to deal with it. As soon as he left the door of Yiningju, Xinghuang was already waiting here. He followed Xinghuang to Songhe Hall. The old lady He gave her detailed instructions again, telling her to serve Yuxin well, and to point out any inappropriate things the Crown Princess did.

It was almost dusk when Green Branches left Yang Mansion.

At this time in the Qianqing Palace, the emperor had just finished his dinner, and Meng Chong was helping him spread the food in the courtyard. Thinking of what happened in the past few days, the emperor was also upset.

Meng Chong was on duty today, and Wang Ying really wanted to squeeze out this old guy Meng Chong, and dominate the Qianqing Palace alone, and dominate the emperor alone. However, although Meng Chong is old and dim, he grew up with the emperor. Due to different sentiments, he encouraged the eunuchs of Qianqing Palace to say a lot of bad things in front of the emperor and scratched his painful feet several times. However, the emperor just scolded Meng Chong every time and then turned around and used him again.

Wang Ying was very depressed.

Meng Chong chatted with the emperor. The emperor was older, so he liked the tone of Meng Chong's speech. Meng Chong only talked about the past, and intentionally or unintentionally guided the conversation in the direction of Uncle Cheng En. It turned out that The prince's aide left in the capital was a veteran in the officialdom, and the first person he approached was Meng Chong, the eunuch in charge of the ceremony.

Meng Chong received a large sum of money from the prince, so naturally he had to do things for the prince and speak for Uncle Cheng En. After Meng Chong's reminder, the emperor also remembered that when Taizong died, the court was in chaos, and many ministers did not support him. At that time, Uncle Cheng'en has a low position, but he wrote letters repeatedly to support his ascension to the throne. He must have contributed to his support. Over the years, Chen Xun, his uncle, has been kind to him. He knows his preferences and contributes to him. He had a lot of beauties and prostitutes. The emperor just thought of him at this time.

The emperor pondered for a while, and finally said to Meng Chong: "Go and tell the Ministry of Punishment to suspend the interrogation of Chen Xun, the uncle of Cheng'en. Ask Niu Hongshi to take good care of him and not to torture him. If he loses a hair, I will find him." That's the question." Niu Hongshi is the envoy of Jinyiwei North Town and Yu Fei's father-in-law.

Meng Chong was overjoyed after hearing this. He bravely asked, "Your Majesty, why don't you just... let Uncle Cheng En go?"

The emperor shook his head and said: "I'll lock him up for two days and let him learn a lesson!"

Meng Chong retreated to deliver the order. The emperor thought about his decision again. Xiao Zongchang's plan was not imprecise, but his calculation revealed a little. The prince was indeed inferior to King Zhao in all aspects. On the surface, this was A fatal flaw, but before the current emperor ascended the throne, his abilities were not even as good as the current prince. He didn't care about Chen Xun's life or death, but the prince was his son after all. Thinking of the way he was respectful and careful in front of him, it was almost like It was so terrible how he looked in front of Taizong back then. When he thought about it, he felt sympathy for the prince again.

We both have the same problem and pity each other!

Xiao Zongchang quickly got the news, and he was not someone to be trifled with. That night he came to discuss with Li Yan. Li Yan pondered for a moment and said, "The affection between the emperor and the prince, and between father and son, is still undiminished!"

The next day, under the instruction of Xiao Zongchang, Zhang Peng, the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, wrote a letter to Meng Kai at the same time, impeaching the prince for his illegal behavior. The prince first heard that his father had removed the officials from the Ministry of Justice who were interrogating Cheng Enbo, and then he got the Those two memorials to impeach myself.

Seeing the above items one by one, embezzling people's fields, building villas privately, and hoarding beautiful women, it was all what he had done over the years. The prince was frightened at that time and hurriedly found Ye Minchun to discuss it.

Although Ye Minchun is capable of literary and military skills, machinations and tricks are not his strong point. He has no idea what he can do.

The prince finally sent him to rush back to the capital overnight to find Yang Peishi and ask him to intercede in front of the emperor. Ye Minchun rushed to the Yang Mansion overnight to ask for an audience with the old man. The old man met him at Songfeng Bookstore. Ye Minchun told the old man what he wanted to say.

I thought that this prince was too impatient. But he calmly sat down and fished.

Yutai: "Go back and tell the prince, tell him to handle his errands well and never leave his duties without permission! Don't worry about this matter, the emperor will take care of it for him. As for going to the palace to plead for mercy, there is no need!" Prince, please take advantage of this.

It’s time to wipe your butt clean and stop doing those illegal and illegal things!

Ye Minchun wanted to ask his grandfather for advice, but the old man had no intention of explaining it in depth. In this dangerous officialdom, others cannot be trusted, and many things must be understood by oneself.

Ye Minchun returned to Tongzhou camp overnight with questions in his head, and told the prince what the old man said. After hearing this, the prince felt a little relieved, but he was still uneasy.

When the emperor read the impeachment memorial of the two minor officials, Long Yan was furious. On the second day, the emperor issued a decree. Zhang Peng, the imperial censor, punished the offenders below Meng Kai and ordered them to be sent to the Liaodong army with eighty sticks outside the Meridian Gate.

Two low-level officials were beaten eighty times and taken to Liaodong. Xiao Zongchang suffered a loss and stopped making any noise. The old man actually knew it well, and Xiao Zongchang also knew that this impeachment was impossible to succeed. This was just

It's a trial.

He just wanted to see what the prince's status was in the emperor's mind.

The prince breathed a sigh of relief. Ye Minchun was impressed by his grandfather's insight into the future. As expected, ginger is really hot!

The military situation on the front line was urgent, and the battles for the heirs in the previous dynasty were raging one after another. The Yang Mansion soon became lively again. For a time, there was an endless stream of official ladies who came to visit the old lady and asked to see the eldest lady. The purpose of these people was clear to the old lady, and they were all

He took a curveball path to save the country and used his wife's diplomacy to get information.

The old lady's illness has not yet healed, and she has been taking all the troubles for a while. Yulan's leisurely days have come to an end. Every day, she is pulled out by the eldest lady to accompany the ladies of the official family. Now all the legitimate daughters of the Yang family are

After getting married, there are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkey is the king. Even the ninth girl has no time to spare, and is pulled out to entertain guests with Yulan.

On April 25th, Yinyue bid farewell to her parents with tears. Under the protection of hundreds of guards, she left the capital and headed for Chengdu, which was a long way away. The left deputy censor of the capital procuratorate led a group of officials, large and small, to

Along with the bride-seeing group and envoys, Yinyue also had a number of beautiful dowry girls, including Li Niang. Of course Yu Lan knew that these so-called dowry girls were actually secret spies sent by Da Chu.

The day before, Yu Lan gave Yinyue a purse that she had sewn with her own hands as a souvenir - it is shameful to say that Yu Lan inherited the original owner's talents and abilities, and was proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, except for embroidery.

After all the hard work, it was not satisfactory. She wanted to give Yinyue a piece of clothing made by herself, but she really couldn't get it.

The two of them shed tears relative to each other. This era is not like modern times. Beijing and Chengdu can be reached by plane in a few hours. At that time, it would take several months to travel between the two places. Plus, Yinyue was married to

The prince of Shu Han, once he leaves, the two of them will probably never see each other again.

After Yin Yue left, Yulan was also feeling gloomy and lacked energy. On this day, after taking a nap, Yulan went to Songhe Hall to meet the old lady as usual.

When we arrived at Songhe Hall, Mother Su who was beside the old lady came out to greet her. The yard was silent, and Mother Su said softly: "The old lady had already taken a nap, but she got up and sat down for a while and then took a nap again.

Girl, please sit down for a while."

Yulan smiled and nodded. After sitting for a while, the old lady woke up, and Xinghuang came over to call her in.

After entering the house, Yulan saw the old lady leaning on the couch. Although she had rested, she still looked tired. The old lady said: "The chaos in the house is too noisy. I can't have a quiet day!" Those who came to see the old lady were just some people.

Although the old feudal lord and the old lady are tired, they are not in a bad mood and they refuted their reputation.

Yu Lan finally understood deeply what it means to be in a world where one cannot help oneself!

Yulan sat on the bedside of the old lady and gently squeezed her shoulders with both hands: "Your health is the most important thing. If these officials and wives come again, you'd better not see them again!"

The old lady closed her eyes comfortably: "How come? Your grandfather has been an official for many years and never puts on airs. It took him many years to accumulate such a good official reputation. You can't ruin his reputation because of me."

Yulan asked anxiously: "What's the best? Your condition has finally improved a little, but in the past few days, you can't see each other anymore." When the old lady talks to those old feudal lords, she talks about what should and shouldn't be said.

How to say something is very particular, it is a waste of brains and energy, so the illness has just started to improve, and after a few days of socializing, my health is not good again.

The old lady said: "Why would I want to entertain them..." At this time, winter has turned to spring, the sunshine is warm in the yard, and green leaves have grown on several vines, creating a scene where everything is revived and full of spring. The old lady took a look

Outside the window, he suddenly said: "I have a dowry village in Changping.

Son. Why don't you accompany me to live there for a few days! On the one hand, you can avoid the official wives in Beijing, and on the other hand, I can take you to relax. Since Yinyue left, I see that you are also depressed. So

For many years, except for going to the temple to offer incense, you haven’t even left the house very often!”

Yu Lan couldn't help but overjoyed after hearing this: "Really?" She could only move around in the Yang Mansion, which was one-third of an acre every day, and it was indeed going to make her sick. Now that the spring is just right, if she could go for a walk in the suburbs of the capital,

A lap, wouldn’t it be a spring outing? It’s so beautiful. After thinking about it, I still think

I felt something was wrong: "Changping is quite far from the capital, and the road is not easy to walk. My grandmother is still ill, no way, no way!" The official roads at that time were just dirt roads with potholes, nothing like modern asphalt roads.

Yes, it is really tiring to walk such a long distance in a carriage.

Seeing that she was still thinking about herself at this time, the old lady felt warm in her heart and said with a smile: "Don't worry, ask your mother to prepare a more comfortable carriage. I also want to go out and relax!"

Yulan thought about it, and now she became happy: "Bring Sister Jiu with you too! She has the liveliest temperament, and she will definitely be happy to know this news."

The old lady actually had this intention: "Okay, I'll send someone to talk to your second aunt later." As for the fifth girl, Yulan didn't mention it, and the old lady also knew that she and Yulan didn't want to deal with each other, so she took her with her.

Qi Yatou was afraid that her original good mood would be ruined, so she didn't mention this issue.

After all, the elderly are also partial.

Prince Jin's Mansion.

"Brother Sixteen, do you really want to go out to investigate? The son of a rich man cannot sit in court. Now the war is fierce and the war is dangerous. Your status is precious and you must not put yourself in danger!" Ye Fengqi looked at Ye Yichen with a worried face.

.

Ye Yichen was dressed in military uniform and had been neatly packed. His hundreds of soldiers, led by Yuan Datou, were neatly arranged in the yard. Ye Yichen wore a white helmet and white armor, holding a riding whip in his hand, and said with a smile: "Seventeenth brother, from the front line

The soldiers were beating me to death, but I was sitting here in the capital, almost getting moldy. Although your spies didn't find any abnormal movements of the Jurchens, I still don't worry. This time I just went to Juyongguan to take a look, so there is nothing to worry about.

of?"

Ye Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Then Brother Sixteen and I will go together!"

Ye Yichen patted his younger brother on the shoulder: "Good brother, I know you are concerned about my safety, but don't worry, every one of the soldiers I brought out can be as good as ten. Besides, I'm not going to fight on the front line, so what's the danger?

Yes! This part of the capital cannot live without you!"
