"See the emperor."
In the imperial study, Nangong Yue bowed his knees and saluted him. After the emperor ordered him to lie down, he stood up.
Her waist was straight, her hands crossed in front of her abdomen. She was dignified and calm, and she did not have the slightest formality for facing the emperor.
All of them had been dismissed by the emperor, leaving only Duke Liu who was close to him.
"Girl Yue." The emperor's voice calmly asked, "do you know what I sent you to do?"
Nangongyue was called out in the warm Pavilion of fengluan palace. The empress wanted her to evaluate song Yuci's "cold plum painting". When she got out of the warm Pavilion, Xueqin told her that the emperor had summoned her, so she went to the imperial study.
Nangong Yue knew that it was mostly related to Xiao Yi or Zhennan palace, so he asked tentatively, "emperor, but a Yi is coming back with a great victory?"
"Today, I got a letter from Princess Zhennan." The emperor looked at her and said, "you should be blamed for one unfilial parent and two guilty of tongue fault. Please ask me to divorce my wife."
Nangong Yue's small face turned white. She knelt down and bit her lower lip without saying a word.
The emperor said sternly, "what do you want to distinguish?"
Nangong Yue said firmly, "the minister's wife has no fault. Ask the emperor to decide. "
"How can I decide for you?"
Nangong Yue said forcefully: "parents are wrong, as children, out of filial piety, dare not argue. But if the minister is wrong, as a king, he can blame one or two of them. "
The emperor looked at him in silence, and Nangong Yue continued: "as for the property, the officials and wives did not act cautiously, thus implicating the reputation of the mother and concubine. Mother and concubine have blame, the minister's wife should bear it. However, the minister's wife comes from Nangong family, and the word "divorce" is too big to make Nangong family's hundred year old reputation suffer from his wife. What's more, there's nothing wrong with the officials and women, and they can't deserve the name of "seven exits."
Nangongyue was kneeling all the time, and the Emperor didn't cry out. The imperial study was quiet. Even Duke Liu, who was waiting on the side, could not help sweating. In his heart, he secretly praised the princess's liveliness and showed no fear.
For a long time, the emperor made a voice, still repeated the words just said: "how do you let me make the decision?"
"The emperor. As a result of the invasion of the southern barbarians, the lives of the people in southern Xinjiang were ruined. The mother and the imperial concubine were kind-hearted. She wanted to pray for the southern Xinjiang in her own body, and hoped that the emperor would grant her permission. " Nangong Yue's hands crossed, against the forehead, line kowtow ceremony.
Duke Liu was so stupid that he couldn't help but stare at the stone. He thought: the princess is too bold to ask for such a fantastic request.
All of a sudden, the emperor blurted out his laughter and broke the silence. He laughed and shook his head and said, "my girl Yue, I really don't know how to say you. All right, get up free. "
"Thank you very much."
Nangong Yue didn't ask the emperor whether he agreed, but stood up according to his orders.
The emperor asked, "the imperial edict issued by the empress should not have arrived in southern Xinjiang. Do you know what the princess of Zhennan is for?"
Nangong Yue thought and replied, "when he was rectifying liuhezhuang, he only took the nephew of the chief administrator, but the chief steward never caught him. He guessed that he might have returned to southern Xinjiang. What's more, more than a month ago, a mother, who was given by her mother's concubine, violated the rules of the Royal Palace and was expelled back to southern Xinjiang by yue'er. There should be nothing else. Even if there is... " She sighed a little and said, "maybe it's because of a Yi's recent great victories."
The emperor pondered for a moment and waved her back.
Nangong Yuefu a gift, out of the Imperial Academy.
"Huairen, what do you think?"
"The emperor." Waiting on the side of the Liu Gonggong busy said, "the son of a concubine is really smart."
"Yes. Smart indeed. " The emperor nodded slowly and said with a smile, "even the courage is great."
Seeing the emperor smile, Duke Liu was also relieved and said, "that's not true. The princess dared to stay in the epidemic area in those years."
The emperor nodded with approval and said, "she is calm and calm, and even the day when the palace changes, she doesn't see any panic. It really made her anxious The princess of Zhennan is acting like this. If she only knows how to cry like an ordinary girl, it will not be her, but deliberately pretended to be. "
Liu Gonggong laughed twice, but he didn't dare to say more.
After leaving the imperial study, Nangong Yue went back to fengluan palace. He first thanks the empress for letting her enjoy the painting of cold plum. Then he sat down and talked with him as if nothing had happened. Until the queen was tired, he bowed down and left with other wives.
Sitting in a soft sedan chair and leaving the palace gate, Nangong Yue took a deep breath against the cold wind.
Cold wind into the nasal cavity, she hit a thrill, the brain is also instantly clear a lot.
Lily, who had been waiting on the zhulun car, jumped down and took a warm stove. She replaced the one that was slightly cooler in her hand and helped her get on the car.
Zhu wheel car slowly driving, Nangong Yue lazily leaning on, in the heart carefully recalled the situation just in the imperial study, repeatedly confirmed whether his answer had omissions.Baihui just went to the imperial study with her just now. She was just waiting under the porch. Seeing that she has been thinking, Baihui can't help but worry. At this time, she can't help but ask, "princess, are you ok?"
Nangong Yue raised the corners of his lips and did not conceal the two maids who served him closely. He said faintly, "the imperial concubine asks the emperor to divorce his wife."
"What?" Baihui and lily were surprised at the same time and looked at each other. The latter said angrily, "how can this follow the princess like this? It's just like being naughty and wild!"
Baihui is a little worried to say: "that emperor won't allow?"
"I am the emperor's gift of marriage. I am going to divorce my wife with these words alone, and the emperor's face will not pass." Nangong Yue said with a smile, "the second princess should also know that it's impossible to leave me with this fold, but she wants to give me a power by virtue of her mother-in-law and Princess fan's identity. In the new year's day, the book was openly handed to the emperor. According to the law, no matter if I did something wrong, I would be called by the queen to reprimand me for a second, so as to give her a face. I'm afraid I'll be the laughing stock of the whole king if I'm reprimanded in the new year. It's a pity She didn't choose the time well. The fact that the stepmother encroached on her stepson's property has just come to light, and she will only annoy the emperor by telling a villain first. "
Hearing that the emperor would not blame Nangong Yue, the two servant girls were all relieved.
Nangong Yue covered the stove and drank a cup of hot tea. The brazier in Zhu Lun's car was so warm that she felt dizzy and sleepy.
Xiaofang's actions undoubtedly gave her an opportunity. The more aggressive Xiaofang was, the more vulnerable Xiao Yi was. Her attitude in the imperial study also clearly expressed her dissatisfaction with Xiaofang's family. Although the emperor valued filial piety, xiaofangshi was only a stepmother, not a mother. Her dissatisfaction with her would not disgust the Emperor, but sent a letter Interest -- a message that there is no harmony between two generations of Zhennan Wangfu.
Since Xiao Yi was weak, the emperor would naturally support him.
That's enough
Nangong Yue gently breathed a breath. She had already done what she should do. Next, it depends on the emperor's intention.
But in any case, Yi's industry has passed the Ming Road. After the new year, she will be able to take it back.
Nangong Yue closed his eyes and fell asleep for a while, until zhulun car stopped at the second gate of Zhennan Wangfu, which was awakened by Baihui.
It was near noon.
Just arrived at the Fufeng courtyard, Nangong Yue didn't have time to change his clothes. Magpie quickly reported that the emperor had a reward.
Nangongyue went to the two gates to meet him. The emperor generously gave five thousand taels of silver, as well as some valuable medicinal materials, silk and jewelry, etc., on the ground that Xiao Yi was on a campaign abroad and could not return to the capital for the Spring Festival.
After thanking him for his kindness, Zhu Xing personally sent the palace people away.
Nangong Yue looked at the box of rewards, and finally put his heart down.
She raised her lips and laughed. She was in a good mood and joked: "the emperor's reward is really timely. Originally, the annual gift given this year has lost more than 4000 Liang. This is good. It just filled up the pit."
Lily was stunned. She said something in her mouth. Then her eyes brightened and she said excitedly, "princess, you are right. We can still earn nearly 800 taels."
This year is the first time that Nangong Yue sent New Year gifts to other governments as his son's concubine. The white silver flowed out like water, which made Lily feel distressed. Although he also received part of the reward, he still spent more than his income. But now, with the emperor's reward, it was a proper profit.
Joking, the master and servant returned to Fufeng courtyard.
After changing a heavy make-up, Nangong Yue changed into a simple ordinary clothes.
From afar, from time to time, you can hear the sound of firecrackers from the street outside, which is very lively. By contrast, it also seems that the palace is particularly lonely.
On the first day of the lunar new year, nangongyue returned to Nangong house from the palace. Nangongmu, Lin and nangongxin would wait for her in the palace. Nangong mu can take a few days off for the new year's Eve. Therefore, in addition to going out to pay New Year's greetings, the family of four often stay in the courtyard, chatting, playing, writing and painting Very comfortable.
Nangong Yue looks at himself in the bronze mirror, frowning slightly, and his heart is a little empty: I don't know how Yi is now in southern Xinjiang. Is it like her to spend the new year alone No, according to the rules, I can go back to Nangong mansion tomorrow to pay New Year's greetings to my parents. Unlike AI, he is really alone.
In the early morning of the palace of flowers, it's no wonder that the mood of the south palace is so low that it's no wonder that they are still in the low mood in the morning.
If there was anything that could distract the princess, Baihui thought about it and said, "shizifei, all the gifts prepared when I went to Nangong house to pay a new year's visit tomorrow are all ready. Would you like to have a look?"
Nangong Yue said listlessly, "no need. You can arrange it. "
The two cousins looked at each other again. This time it was Lily's turn to say, "princess, or Or... " After racking her brains, she finally came up with an idea, "can I show you the sword dance?" The color clothes amuse the host, Lily consciousness also spell.Nangong Yue looked up and down at lily. A smile flashed in his eyes and said, "since you are free today, why don't you look at the account books for me. There are still several boxes of books in the study
Lily suddenly fell down on hearing this, feeling sad and made all the servants in the room laugh. The atmosphere was much lighter.
Nangong Yue is just joking. It's better to sit in a daze than to look at the account books!
Nangong Yue laughed and said, "forget it, you guys play leaf cards with me for a while, but I have prepared a lot of silver and naked sons. This year's lucky money will have to be won by your own ability."
Lily happily said: "this is good! I'm going to get the leaf card
So, those who take the leaf card take the leaf card, the one who places the table sets the table, and the one who takes the silver nude takes the silver nude. After a while, a room full of people are playing, and there is a little festive atmosphere.
The second day of junior high school is the day when the married daughter returns home. Nangong Yue happily prepares a cart of gifts and can't wait to return to Nangong mansion to visit his parents and brothers. Lin has already known this kind of rumor in Zhennan Wangfu. As soon as he saw Nangong Yue, he pulled her to talk and wished to keep her for a long time.
Next, on the third and fourth day of junior high school, Nangong Yue went to other familiar places to pay New Year's greetings.
In this way, until the fifth day of the ninth day, a ceremony was held in the palace to take out the twenty-five seals and imperial pens which had been sealed up a year ago. This means that from this day on, the emperor will officially begin to deal with the government affairs again.
On the same day, the emperor personally drew up a decree and sent people to the south of Xinjiang at a speed of 3000 Li.
When he got the news, Nangong Yue had just finished his lunch. She smelled the words and said nothing more, but the corners of her lips rose.
"Princess." At this time, Lily came to report: "aunt Ye has brought her granddaughter to celebrate the new year for you."
Nangong Yue naturally remembers this aunt ye, but he didn't expect that the other party was so interested that he specially came to pay New Year's greetings to himself.
Nangong Yue pondered for a while and ordered: "lily, you take them to the small flower hall." Although Wu Shou hall is the main hall of the inner house, its layout is too masculine and imposing. Nangongyue himself does not like to entertain guests there. By contrast, the layout of the small flower hall is much more elegant and quiet.
Lily took the order.
Nangong Yue picked up a little bit and took Baihui and thrush to the small flower hall.
Aunt ye and her granddaughter have already sat down in the small flower hall. Lily is talking with them. She is lively, and aunt Ye is familiar with her, so the atmosphere is very harmonious.
As soon as Nangong Yue entered the small flower hall, aunt Ye's eyes immediately looked at her. She quickly stood up and gave a slightly stiff salute: "I've seen the princess."
The girl next to Aunt Ye stood up almost at the same moment and saluted Nangong Yue. She was a girl of thirteen or four years old. Her dark green silk was only tied with a simple wooden hairpin. Her skin was more than snow, her appearance was beautiful, and she had a kind of elegant temperament like an empty valley and orchid. Her eyes, as clear as spring water, were shining brightly and unforgettably.
"Aunt Ye is exempt. Sit down While Nangong Yue spoke, he gave lily a look. He warmly supported aunt ye and sat back.
Nangong Yue sat down on the chair of pear blossom wood and asked with concern: "aunt ye, how is your grandson's condition now? Is it better? "
"Much better! He's much better already Aunt Ye was flattered and said, "thank you for your concern. Today, the old lady specially brought her granddaughter to thank the princess, and also paid new year's greetings to her She said, she looked at her granddaughter, "Li sister, I haven't seen my son and Princess soon!"
The Ye girl stood up and said to her again, "Yi Li has met Princess Shizi. Thank you for your help. I remember it in my heart."
Eli? Nangong Yue was stunned, his eyes slightly gaped, and he was surprised to look at this girl ye, or Ye Yili. Many things suddenly appeared in his mind.
I didn't expect that she was Ye Yili In other words, I am more familiar with her another name - Fengqi. In the past, Fengqi was once the flower queen of Wangdu's most famous brothel and drunken flower building.
Nangongyue's eyes flashed, and he clearly remembered that the story about Fengqi had once been spread all over the Wangdu
In order to see her elder brother seriously ill, ye Yili sold herself to zuihua house Later, her brother, ye Yinming, was No. 1 in high school, but he didn't forget his sister who died for him. He worked hard to find Ye Yili, who had become a famous flower. However, ye Yili didn't want to affect his brother's reputation and future, so she ran into a wall and died.
As a result, ye Yinming lost his only family member, so he vented his hatred on Xiao Yi. He felt that it was because Xiao Yi's shop put money in his shop that the Ye family's family was destroyed. For this reason, ye Yinming once impeached Xiao Yi, who had killed his father and killed his younger brother, openly in southern Xinjiang, and wrote a lot of criticisms and criticisms about Xiao Yi He also had a good reputation among the literati, and those comments spread widely, so that later Xiao Yi was reviled and infamous.Thinking of this, Nangong Yue looks at Ye Yili's eyes almost a little complicated.
I have to admit that she still admires this girl Ye. She pays more attention to love and righteousness, and is determined and resolute In the past life, she became the most popular flower queen in the capital city not only because of her appearance, but also because of her talent and integrity!
In this life, because of my accidental act, I helped such a strange woman change her fate. It was unintentional to insert willows into the shade
Seeing Nangong Yue all the time looking at his granddaughter, aunt ye asked anxiously, "princess, I don't know what's wrong with my granddaughter?"
"Aunt ye, it's OK. I just look at Miss ye and feel familiar. I think I'm wrong." Nangong Yue laughed as if nothing had happened. "Aunt ye, your granddaughter is really beautiful. Did you promise someone else?"
Madame Ye seemed to have been praised. She laughed and said, "princess, you flatter me." But soon she frowned again, "Sister Li hasn't made a promise yet. Ah, it's my old lady who delayed her... "
"Grandmother!" Ye Yili interrupts aunt ye with a voice, and a trace of blush appears on her face But soon this point turned to be firm, she suddenly stood up and said, "princess, please forgive Yi Li for taking the liberty, Yili has something to ask for!"
"Sister Li..." Aunt Ye was obviously surprised and blurted out.
Nangong Yue said in a hurry: "Miss Ye doesn't have to be like this. If there is anything I can do, please feel free to say it."
Ye Yili looked up at Nangong Yue and said, "Princess Shizi, because of the poverty in her family, Yili feels that her needlework is pretty good. She wants to find a sewing workshop to help her family..."
"Sister Li, I still have a long life at home..." Aunt Ye was heartbroken and looked at her granddaughter with reluctance. If she was not useless, she would not need to consider family planning at a young age.
"Grandmother." Ye Yili firmly interrupts aunt ye and looks at each other for a moment and says, "although the imperial concubine is kind and gives us a sum of money to see the elder brother, grandmother, now there is no land or livelihood in the family It's no way to sit on the mountain like this. My granddaughter also wants to do something for her grandmother, for her brother and for her family. "
"Sister Li..." A layer of water vapor appeared in aunt Ye's eyes. She was moved by her granddaughter's understanding.
Nangong Yue looked at Ye Yili for a long time, and a trace of appreciation appeared in his eyes. This girl Ye is really extraordinary. She seems to be as lofty as the spirit rain of an empty mountain, but she knows how to judge the situation and seize the opportunity.
After all, even if Xiao Yi had nothing to do with the money, it was the princess of Zhennan who owed the Ye family.
What's more, arranging a job for her is just a piece of cake for myself, but it can solve the urgent need of the Ye family.
Nangong Yue chuckled and said, "Miss ye, there is a rouge shop in Wangdu under my name. Although the shop mainly sells rouge and gouache, it also sells some embroidery from her daughter's house. Would you like to try it there?"
Ye Yili was so happy that she said, "princess, Yili is willing to. Thank you for your kindness. "
Her bright eyes sparkled at this moment, and even her white skin seemed to glow. Nangong Yue secretly praised: it's no wonder that Miss ye could become a unique figure in her previous life. Even her own daughter's family, she felt a little excited.
Aunt ye did not speak, neither supporting nor opposing. Her muddy eyes were extremely tangled. On the one hand, she could not bear her granddaughter's hard work, but on the other hand, she knew that her granddaughter was right. Although Nangong Yue gave them a sum of money, most of his grandson's illness had been spent. Even after he recovered, he needed to take good care of himself What's more, my grandson has to study for the Jinshi!
If you continue to sit on the mountain and empty, you will only repeat the same mistakes and go to despair again.
Seeing aunt Ye's hesitation and entanglement, Nangong Yue suggested: "aunt ye, why don't I ask lily to take you and miss ye to my shop to see how it works. First, we can see the environment of the shop. Second, we can meet with the manager of the shop and talk about the details."
Nangong Yue's proposal was thoughtful and considerate, but aunt Ye got up to thank him.
With that, Lily took his grandparents and grandchildren out of the small flower hall.
Looking at Ye Yili's graceful back, Nangong Yue's eyes flashed a touch of complexity. She was also a woman. She also hoped that ye Yili would live a more smooth and happy life.
Not long after, Lily came back to Fufeng courtyard to find nangongyue and told him: "princess, the maid has already brought Miss ye to know someone. She said that after fifteen leaves, she would go to Huayan to work..." The matter finished, but Lily did not retreat, but looked at Nangong Yue with an expression of some solemnity.
Lily is always smiling and heartless. She is so strange today. How can Nangong Yue not see it and ask, "lily, what's the matter? What can't you tell me? "
Lily pursed her lips and finally said, "princess, when I was just going to Huayan, I saw Yimei hiding in the room quietly crying When she saw the maid coming, she pretended as if nothing had happened. The princess... " Thinking of Yimei's bad mother-in-law, Lily Mu Lu is worried. After thinking about it, she will make her cry like that, and only her mother-in-law can make her cry like that.Nangong Yue lowered his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and then ordered, "lily, you and thrush should pay attention to the situation in Yimei's house, and then report to me."
"Yes, princess."
The lily went away.
Nangong Yue, the capital of Wang, had a myriad of thoughts. In southern Xinjiang, thousands of miles away, Xiao Yi's shoulders were heavy. It can be said that he shouldered the fate of Southern Xinjiang.
Ten thousand men and horses led by him have been in the outskirts of Fuzhong city for ten days. From the year before and after the new year, they only surrounded and did not attack.
As time went by, these people started to be on standby at the beginning, and then the whole army became agitated.
Mo Xiuyu took Qianliyan and looked at the gate of Fuzhong city for a long time, and finally put it down.
Wang Jian, who was beside him, said with some impatience: "Captain Mo, when do you think the prince will order to attack the city in Fuzhong? As the saying goes, "keep up one's spirits, and then decline, and three will exhaust." "he moved his knuckles." it's been ten days, and the brothers can't wait to wait... "
Mo Xiuyu tightly grasped Qianli eye and did not speak. Xi Jue on one side said: "Wang Jian, calm down. He must be waiting for the opportunity. In his nature, he will never act rashly because of his greed for meritorious service, and let us lose our lives in vain. "
According to the information now known, the strength of both sides is equal. Our army's victory lies in the unity of heart and momentum. However, some of the southern men's army were unstable because of repeated defeats, but the enemy was in the middle of the government, so it was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Not only did they lack food and arrows, but they did not even have a decent weapon to attack the city!
Wang Jian became more and more impatient and made two circles in the same place. In fact, Xi Jue understood what he said. Now the son of God dare not rashly attack, also do not have enough assurance, so need to wait for the best opportunity.
If it is
If the prince was willing to give some support at the beginning, even if there was no siege vehicle, as long as enough arrows were given, the city of Fuzhong must have returned to the territory of Dayu again!
But the king just didn't agree!
Wang Jian's eyes were dark and pressed in his heart for a long time. Finally, he couldn't help asking, "why don't you agree with the support?"
Mo Xiuyu and Xi Jue took a look at each other. This problem has been lingering in the army for more than ten days. Even if they did not understand it, most of the officers and men knew it.
The prince is afraid that the son of a son will earn too much military achievements. The son will be strong and the father will be weak, which will affect his prestige in the south of Xinjiang and in the army!
These days, a thought that can almost be called treacherous emerges from time to time in Mo Xiuyu's mind. Is this Zhennan King worthy of his loyalty?
The so-called: scholars die for confidants. Mo Xiuyu once heard that the old Zhennan king, who had passed away, was a hero. He took his brothers to the front, threw his head and shed his blood to protect the land and people of Dayu. Even if he died in a foreign land, what was his fear!
In contrast, the king of Zhennan is so narrow-minded that he can't even tolerate his own son. Even for his own sake, he ignores the safety of Southern Xinjiang. It's really chilling!
It's not like shiziye
On the contrary, it is quite like the ancestor!
Like shiziye, he is worthy to be the master of Southern Xinjiang.
Mo Xiuyu's face was a little gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: "this war, shiziye must win!"
"Not bad." Xi Jue said solemnly.
The prince has ordered the emperor to return to Jiangcheng immediately, but for the sake of the people in southern Xinjiang and for the soldiers who died in the battlefield, he did not hesitate to disobey the king's order.
In this war, they must not lose!
Once the war is won and the city is recaptured, even if the prince is not happy, he will not be able to care about the prince's disobeying the military orders.
But if this war is lost, the son of the world must face the censure from the king!
Wang Jian scratched his head impatiently. He could not help looking at the central camp. "It's been nearly half an hour since shiziye called general Tian in."
Early this morning, Xiao Yi called all the officers and men to the central camp to discuss the military situation. Until now, there is no movement in the camp. On the contrary, it leads people outside to think about the East and the west, and a lot of speculation
Just then, a soldier came running in a hurry.
Seeing his anxious appearance, Wang Jian stopped him: "Liu Er Gou, what's the matter? In a hurry? "
Liu Ergou stopped panting and said, "reinforcements Reinforcements are coming After a pause, he said, "I'm going to inform the prince."
Without saying that, Liu Ergou has already strode to the central camp.
Reinforcements are coming! Wang Ye changed his mind and sent reinforcements here!?
Wang Jian was so happy that Mo Xiuyu and Xi Jue couldn't suppress their excitement. They looked at each other and ran towards the entrance of the camp.
With reinforcements, they will be able to capture the city as soon as possible!
There was a commotion in the direction of the entrance of the camp. Many soldiers nearby heard the news of the arrival of reinforcements, and came in waves after wavesSoon, a young man in silver armor was leading dozens of officers and soldiers marching towards the central camp. From a distance, we could see a black copper helmet and iron armor around the camp. The number of soldiers was tens of thousands, which should be the reinforcements.
Mo Xiuyu's complicated eyes fell on the young man who was the leader, and said: "second young master..."
Yes, the man who brought reinforcements this time is xiaoluan, the second son of Zhennan king!
As if a bucket of cold water poured down, Mo, Xi, Wang's original hot heart and blood instantly cooled down, only feel the bone chilling cold.
Zhennan Wang's mind is just Sima Zhao's heart. Everyone knows it!
