Chapter 136: Flying Misfortune 3

When Lu met Shen Xuan, the team of more than [-] people immediately increased to more than [-] people.

Since the servants summoned were all unfamiliar faces, Meng Qinghe failed to find out much useful information.

Along the way, we can only get a glimpse of one or two from their attitudes.

Something must have happened.

Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, we can't say for sure.

The emperor summoned him to Beijing, and also summoned Shen Xuan, but he didn't say why, which made Meng Twelve Lang's heart beat all the time.From Daning to Shandong, from land to boat, all the way south, the closer to Nanjing, the deeper Meng Qinghe's frown.

Standing on the bow of the boat, watching the water waves being split by the bow, and the shadows in the water becoming fragmented, Meng Qinghe smiled wryly, shouldn't he be glad that it was the servant who came here, and not the Jinyiwei with the driving ticket?

Is he really thinking too much?

Having lived in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, if you don't think too much about everything, there is no guarantee that you will suffer a disadvantage at any time.

As the evening approached, the wind in the river was a bit cold, Meng Qinghe sneezed, but didn't want to go back to the cabin.

He and Shen Xuan live in different cabins, separated by several rooms, and there are no beauties to seduce him when he goes back, so why not stand here and enjoy the wind, so as to clear his head.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the flag planted on the official boat was blown violently by the wind.

Meng Qinghe sneezed again and rubbed his nose, but if it didn't work, if he continued to blow it, he would most likely catch a cold.

It seems that scolding Fang Qiu, romantic figures and so on is really not suitable for me.It's better to go back to the cabin and nest in the cabin, don't think about it.Maybe he really thought too much.Maybe the emperor called him back to Beijing for reward?

Looking up at the sky, if that's the case, it wasn't Zheng He Hou Xian who came, it should be Bai Yanhui, right?

Squeezing his forehead, a cloak suddenly covered his body, wrapped in the familiar cold fragrance, he knew who was standing behind him without turning his head.

It's really... there is no sound when walking.

Meng Qinghe looked sideways, "Master Hou, when did you come?"

"Just now." Shen Xuan tightened the cloak on Meng Qinghe, "Is Twelve Lang worried about going to Beijing?"

"En." Meng Qinghe nodded and lowered his voice, "I have to worry, I always feel that there must be something hidden in His Majesty's summoning this time."

"No need to worry." Shen Xuan grabbed Meng Qinghe's shoulders, saw him stiffen, and immediately looked around, feeling amused, and hugged his arms even tighter, "It's just that there is impeachment by the censor, Your Majesty summoned you and me back to Beijing Play it right."

Meng Qinghe asked suspiciously: "How does Lord Hou know?"

"Yang Neiguan informed."

Yang Neiguan?

After thinking for a while, Meng Qinghe matched the name and face, the eunuch who went to Beijing to announce the decree?

"That's right." Shen Xuan nodded, "Yang Neiguan is an old man of Yan Palace."

Meng Qinghe's mouth was wide open. He was also in charge of the security work of Prince Yan's Mansion. How did he never know that there was such a number one person in the Palace?Judging from his attire, he is definitely at the level of a chief eunuch. To be able to achieve this position in the twelfth prison, it is impossible for him to be unknown in the hidden mansion.

"Neiguan Yang is serving Her Highness the Queen." Shen Xuan pinched Meng Qinghe's earlobe. He had wanted to do this since just now. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, he might just say, "Twelve Lang has never seen him before." ,Not surprisingly."

"Oh."

Meng Qinghe nodded, it was not surprising that he was not familiar with the people around Empress Xu at all.

Foreign ministers and the internal officials around the queen are definitely courting death.Of course, the queen's natal family and godson are exceptions.

The ear was pinched again, and Meng Qinghe soon realized that he had strayed from the topic.He clearly talked about the reason for being called to Beijing this time, so how could he talk about the identity of Yang Neiguan?

"Hou Ye said, Your Majesty called you and me to Beijing because we were imprisoned?"

"Yes." Shen Xuan nodded, held Meng Qinghe's wrist, and led Meng Qinghe to the cabin.

"Does Lord Hou know who it is?"

"know."

"Then..." Should we exchange information and share?

Shen Xuan stopped, "Twelve Lang wants to know?"

"nature."

"Oh."

"Master Hou?"

"Twelve Lang asked, and Xuan naturally knew everything." Shen Xuan tilted his head, with a smile on his lips, and under the twilight, he became more and more charming, "But, would Shi Twelve Lang talk to Xuan Bingzhu at night?"

Talking at night by candlelight?

Thinking of the consequences of these four words, Meng Qinghe subconsciously covered his neck and took three big steps back.

Shen Xuan raised his eyebrows, and there was something different in his smile.

Noble, elegant, cold, very attractive, but also extremely dangerous.

Meng Qinghe swallowed, and wanted to back up again, but it felt like a nail had been planted under his feet.

"Master Hou."

"kindness?"

"This is on a boat." The sound insulation of the cabin seems to be not very good, and the waiter Yang lives next door.

"I know."

"..." Do you know that you still have to talk to him by candlelight at night?

Meng Qinghe's expression became stiff for a moment, but Shen Xuan took two steps forward at this moment, put one hand on Meng Qinghe's shoulder, and leaned over, like a prairie wolf pressing its prey, "Twelve Lang, don't think too much, Xuan is a person who keeps rituals."

"..."

Meng Qinghe was unable to complain.

Shen Houye's observance of etiquette is absolutely far from the traditional ritual observance.Besides, even if Master Shen suddenly changed to vegetarianism, he wasn't sure if he would suddenly pounce on him.

"Master Hou, I suddenly don't want to know."

According to Marquis Shen's attitude, even if he is involved, the emperor is more likely to be on his side.Since there is no risk of being beheaded, is there any difference between knowing in advance and knowing the details after arriving in Beijing?

It's really clever to be misunderstood by cleverness. When encountering Shen Xuan's head, he won't turn around.

Beauty misleads people!

"Twelve Lang doesn't want to know?"

"Do not want to."

"But," Shen Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and approached slowly, "Xuan wants to have a detailed talk with Twelve Lang, what should I do?"

"This...let me go back and think about it..."

Meng Qinghe retreated instinctively, but suddenly his eyes turned upside down, he was carried on Shen Xuan's shoulders, he struggled to stand up, and happened to meet Yang Neishi's staring eyes.

Looking at each other, Meng Twelve Lang was stunned, gritted his teeth, and covered his face.

This goes beyond the realm of humiliation.

Things got so bad that Meng Qinghe calmed down.

Putting down his hands covering his face, Meng Twelve Lang said solemnly: "I am exchanging martial arts with Marquis Dingyuan, but my skills are not as good as others, and Eunuch Yang laughed at me."

The river wind blows, but unfortunately there are no fallen leaves.

The round-eyed Eunuch Yang has already turned into petrification.

Ding Yuanhou, who was carrying people, suddenly felt weak.

Hearing the sound, the guards who dutifully rushed to check were shocked, and admired Meng Qinghe.

Dare to learn martial arts with Marquis Dingyuan, such a fearless heroism is really rare in the army.

Mr. Xingning Bochun, a real man, must give a thumbs up!

The next day, the pure man Xing Ningbo got off the boat, changed to a horse at the official post, and continued on his way.

Nothing unexpected happened on the road, and Marquis Dingyuan didn't talk to him again by candlelight, and fell asleep on his feet.It's just that the enthusiastic eyes of the soldiers really made Meng Qinghe a little overwhelmed.To be admired so much is really stressful.

Eunuch Yang hesitated to speak several times, but after carefully observing Shen Xuan and Meng Qinghe, he felt that he was thinking too much.Secretly beating his chest, Dingyuanhou and Tongxing Ningbo are both true-tempered and calm in doing things, how can our family speculate on the sincere friendship between them with such a **** mind?It is simply too inappropriate!

As the distance from Nanjing got closer, Eunuch Yang became more and more sure of what he wanted.The attitude towards Meng Qinghe unconsciously carried a trace of kindness born of guilt.

Meng Twelve Lang touched his face, looked at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and was extremely puzzled. What did he do wrong? Why was he so favored by the eunuch?Could it be an additional skill of time travel?

After getting this answer, Meng Qinghe was embarrassed.

Even though they were rushing all the way, it was already the middle of May when Meng Qinghe, Shen Xuan and his party arrived in Nanjing.

During this period, several major events took place in the court. The popularity and sensational effects completely overwhelmed Chen Ying's memorial to impeach Meng Qinghe.

First, there was a censor in Jiangxi Province who impeached Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, and his eldest son Zhu Panxuan, who had resentment against the emperor and slandered the town.In short, Zhu Quan and his son Zhu Panxuan were dissatisfied with Zhu Di, secretly engaged in a series of illegal activities such as feudal superstition and dancing to the gods.

As soon as the imperial censor's impeachment report arrived, the court immediately fried the pot.

That's not bad. In history, any matter involving the Nightmare Town of Witch Gu is a major case, and if it is not strictly investigated, it must be strictly investigated!

The Criminal Department of Dali Temple immediately went to the evacuation, and the Jinyi Guards also dispatched one after another. During the court meeting, Zhu Di's face never cleared up again.

This matter is not settled, and Prince Chen of Annan entered the court again, crying and complaining about Hu's usurpation of power and throne, please Shangguo to uphold justice.According to the words of later generations, it was the surname Hu who engaged in conspiracy, launched a rebellion, killed the king's family, conspired to seize the throne, and succeeded.Prince Chen survived the catastrophe, and went to Daming to ask for political asylum. He hoped that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty would carry forward the spirit of internationalism, uphold justice for him, drive Hu from power, and help him regain the throne.

Annan surrendered to the Ming Dynasty. Members of the Annan royal family who want to inherit the throne must be canonized by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Only the golden seal and imperial edict issued by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty will complete the procedure and the succession will take effect.Not sending envoys to court, ascending to the throne by oneself, and engraving one hundred and eighty seals are also illegal regimes and must be banned.

The same example also includes North Korea and Ryukyu.

After the Hu family usurped the throne, they also sent envoys to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, and reported to Zhu Di that the royal family of the Chen surname was dead, and that the Hu family's ascension to the throne was what the people wanted.Zhu Di's envoys to Annan also reported that Hu's words were basically correct.

Therefore, Zhu Di issued a gold seal and imperial edict to the Hu family, and also rewarded Qiyi with money.

Not long after the reward was issued, Prince Chen appeared.After multiple verifications, the identity confirmation is correct.You can't drive someone away, you can only arrange him to live in the Huitong Hall.After Prince Chen lived in, he would cry when he saw people in the sky, crying how miserable he was, how abominable the Hu family who usurped power, Ming Dynasty was the king of heaven, and he must be the master of his subordinates!

However, he speaks Chinese very well and is familiar with multiple languages. When he found that the other party could not understand, he immediately changed the language channel.Can you understand me this time?Well, keep crying.

What's this?Naked slap in the face.

Zhu Di became angry, and threw the minister who had been sent to Annan for investigation into Jinyi Prison, and told Yang Duo clearly that he didn't want to see this person again.

Yang Duo worked very hard, and within three days, he found all kinds of evidence of the minister's corruption and perverting the law. It was impossible for him to be exiled into the army, so he beheaded him directly.

He let out a sigh of relief, but Zhu Di was still annoyed.

But at this time, the matter of setting up the crown prince was brought up again, and a group of Qing nobles from the Imperial Academy called on the seniors of the army and civilians in Beijing to come forward to persuade the emperor to set up the crown prince.

Anyone with a normal head should know that making Zhu Di uncomfortable at this time is purely out of curiosity, and he is running wildly on the broad road of losing his official position and losing his head.

Xie Jin and others who were behind the scenes were also very helpless, and they didn't expect to catch up with this effort.

The original plan was very good. Chen Ying would lead the battle, and King Han and King Zhao would go into the water. As long as the two were able to meet the suspicion of the emperor, the matter would be considered a success.

Then came the ministers and the elders of the common people.

The emperor can refute the memorials of the officials, but he cannot turn a blind eye to the hearts of the people.As long as the emperor is a little bit loose, and the ministers' mouths are shining like lotus flowers, maybe things will be done?

The emperor doesn't like the son, but he likes the son very much. This is the biggest bargaining chip in the hands of Xie Jin and others.

What a grandson!

Originally, the plan was one after another, and the dawn of victory was just around the corner. Even Yang Shiqi said that it was rare that Xie Jin would come up with such a good idea.

But who would have thought that as soon as Chen Ying took action, and as soon as the Hanlin's invitation was delivered, the incidents of Annan's usurpation of power would come up one after another in the town of King Ning's Nightmare.In addition, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui took retreat as an advance and asked the emperor to surrender. Even the empress, who had never cared about political affairs, expressed dissatisfaction because of this. No matter how politically minded they should know, the matter is serious.

Empress Xu was really angry.

She is queen and mother.She is virtuous, but she also has a bottom line.

The two sons had been away from her for so long, and they finally came back to celebrate her birthday, but they were forced to ask themselves to be feudal vassals. They dared not go to the north, but only invited them to the southwest. What is the difference between this and exile?

Zhu Gaochi is her son, and so are Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui!The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, she feels distressed!

Although Zhu Di has a preference among the three sons, Empress Xu has always been able to keep a bowl of water level. At critical moments, she has spoken for Zhu Gaochi many times, which shows her attitude.

But this time, because of Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, she was not only angry with Chen Ying Xie Jin, but also a little bit dissatisfied with her eldest son.

Where has all the kindness and humility in the past gone?Can't tolerate his two brothers so much?

It is also a skill to make Empress Xu angry like this.

Zhu Gaochi could only smile wryly after being rejected twice.

If he couldn't see his mother's face, he couldn't make excuses, so he could only kneel in front of Kunning Palace, unable to get up for a long time.

If he can't be forgiven by his mother, he will really fail.

Thinking of the years in Peking and all the troubles after entering the capital, Zhu Gaochi was full of tears.The matter was not done by him at all, why should he be blamed?

The concubine Shizi came to persuade and knelt down together, but Empress Xu still didn't see her.It wasn't until Zhu Zhanji knelt beside the prince that Empress Xu couldn't help but feel soft-hearted.

The palace servants were sent to invite the eldest son to come in, Empress Xu moved to the Nuan Pavilion, sighed, as if she was talking to herself, "I am old too."

The palace people did not dare to make a sound, and carefully offered the decoction to persuade the queen to take the medicine.

After the turmoil broke out in the imperial court, Empress Xu's family couldn't rest well, her spirits were weak, and her phoenix's body was in disharmony.

Because of the queen's illness, the emperor's temper became more and more bad, and he was not pleasing to anyone.The Fifth Army Commander's Mansion and the Sixth Department both suffered a lot.The Imperial Academy, the Sixth Division and the Metropolitan Procuratorate were the hardest-hit areas. The attendants who were dragged down by the big Han general, the attendants, lecturers, censors and givers, could not be counted in two slaps.

Empress Xu had used the medicine, Zhu Gaochi took Zhu Zhanji into the Nuan Pavilion, and the concubine Shizi was stopped outside.

Standing in front of the door of the Nuan Pavilion, watching the door of the Nuan Pavilion close in front of her, the concubine Shizi lowered her eyes, still dignified, but her nails dyed with Koudan had already dug into her palm.

It was in this tense atmosphere that Meng Qinghe and Shen Xuan arrived in Beijing.

Originally thinking that he would be greeted by a violent storm, Meng Qinghe was even prepared for the iron bond to stay with him.After entering Beijing, he found that all the preparations were useless.

Compared with the few major events in the court today, what is his little matter?Not to mention the storm, if the emperor hadn't specially summoned him and Shen Xuan to Beijing, there might not even be a wave of water.

Meng Qinghe and Shen Xuan returned to the mansion, after understanding the situation, they waited for the emperor to summon them with peace of mind.

This wait is five days.

Zhu Di was busy writing a letter to King Ning, telling his brother, I believe that the slander against Nightmare Town was not done by the virtuous brother, but must be instigated by the villains around him to frame the virtuous brother and alienate the brotherhood.I care about the affection of my relatives and will not go into the details, but my brother must also recognize the mistake and hand over the villain who did this to Jin Yiwei.In addition, if you are always idle and have nothing to do, why not drink tea, grow flowers, read books, listen to music, and cultivate your sentiments.

"This is a plan for my virtuous brother."

This is for the good of my virtuous brother, and also for the harmony within the royal family, so don't be too grateful to me.

Regardless of what Zhu Quan would think after receiving the letter, in Zhu Di's view, this is definitely lenient treatment.

After dealing with King Ning's matter, Zhu Di sent someone to Annan to find out what happened, and made it clear that if the Hu family really usurped the throne, this matter could not be done well.

The matter of setting up the crown prince was temporarily put aside, and Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui's request to join the feudal clan was also suppressed.

Yang Neiguan returned to the palace to resume his post, and Zhu Di learned that Shen Xuan and Meng Qinghe had arrived in the capital.After pondering for a moment, he ordered Zheng He to go to Dingyuanhou's Mansion and Xingningbo's Mansion to send a message, and to see him at Xinuange after the court tomorrow morning.

Zhu Di had a very good idea. He first talked with the two of them in private, and then opened up the whole matter. Using Chen Ying's introduction, he directly pressed the Imperial Academy.

If it was just Meng Qinghe and Shen Xuan, there would be no need to be so troublesome, but the matter involved the emperor's own son and the prince of the country, so it cannot be taken lightly.

It's a pity that no matter how good the plan is, it doesn't change quickly.

It never occurred to Zhu Di that there was someone who was not afraid of death, and with the look in his eyes that wanted to kill someone, he fired at Meng Qinghe again in the morning.

The person who is not afraid of death is none other than Chen Ying, the left deputy capital censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Meng Qinghe, standing in the ranks of military officials in the right class, was dumbfounded.

Did he mess with this man?

Think about it carefully, no.

What is the reason for holding onto him like this at the cost of his life?
