Yijuan cloud

Chapter 128
What the Queen Mother said is definitely true.

No wonder the Cao family asked many questions on the night of the accident, but they didn't know what happened.

They didn't even know that Cao Junlei and Liang Xianyi had an accident together, and they didn't even know that the two of them were left in the palace.

And Prime Minister Xu already knows many inside stories.

It turned out that it was not because of his high position, but because he conspired with the emperor to commit this case.

I can't figure it out, why did Prime Minister Xu expose Liang Xianyi?He should not do such a thing either emotionally or rationally.

Liang Xianyi was his son-in-law. He was banned from the clan for life and demoted to commoners with the imperial surname along with his family members. Didn't he also harm his daughter?

Xu Ruxin has been suffering for the past two days, running back and forth to save Liang Xianyi. Doesn't he feel distressed?
Xu Ruxin is a legitimate daughter and the youngest daughter. It can be seen that Prime Minister Xu treats her very lovingly. Why should he watch his daughter suffer?
The Queen Mother said that he was killing relatives out of justice, but if Liang Xianyi really supported his troops like King Jin, he would have rebelled. Liang Xianyi obviously had nothing but secretly walked around with Cao Junlei. How could Prime Minister Xu deceive them? The crime of rebellion?

He is not doing this for righteousness, he is clearly looking at human life!
He knew that things would be difficult to change, so he locked up Xu Ruxin and did not allow her to leave the Xu Mansion.

If Xu Ruxin hadn't stolen his badge and brought me into the palace to seek help from Concubine Hui, we would still have been kept in the dark by him.

It was quiet outside for some time, and Concubine Hui said softly: "She's gone, please come out."

I walked out from behind the cabinet with hurried steps and top-heavy steps.

Concubine Hui leaned on the bed, looking at me like the setting sun in winter, and said: "Have you heard it? Prime Minister Xu is also involved in Xianyi's trouble. After you leave the palace, you must go far away and never come to the capital again. ”

I said in a hoarse voice: "The daughter of the people doesn't understand why Prime Minister Xu wants to harm Xianyi?"

Concubine Hui whispered: "You and I are both women, how can we understand the affairs of the court?"

There were hurried footsteps outside, and two slaves walked in quickly. They were shocked when they saw me: "You...why are you still here?"

Concubine Hui said: "She was measuring clothes for me behind the screen just now. The Queen Mother also knows, what are you making such a fuss about? Send this girl out, she is still busy catching up with Eunuch An's errands."

Cining Palace is remote. There is a long corridor to walk out of. There are high red brick walls on both sides. Being in it, one feels as if one is in a deep well and can only see an inch of the sky. I was so depressed that I couldn't help but run away. got up.

Far away, the young eunuch on duty outside Qianqing Palace drank me down.

I calmly handed over the veil containing Concubine Hui's ring and said with a smile, "Excuse me, please give this to Eunuch An."

The young eunuch had been gone for a while, and then a eunuch in his thirties came over. When he came up to me, he whispered, "Come with me." I followed him hurriedly.

After passing through several corridors, we arrived at a small courtyard.

There was a young eunuch standing at the door. When he saw Mr. An, he smiled apologetically and said, "Why is my godfather back at this hour today?" While speaking, he looked at me with his eyes and bowed to me, "This sister has very narrow eyesight..."

"Talk too much." Eunuch An scolded me and led me into the small courtyard.

There were two bungalows, one facing the other side. After entering the main room, Eunuch An told the young eunuch at the door: "You didn't see anything about what happened today. Do you understand?"

"Son, I understand." The little eunuch said and quickly closed the door.

Because I had dealt with Tang Shou, I was very resistant to the eunuch, so I couldn't help but take two steps away from the door.

Eunuch An looked at me deeply, as if he knew what I was thinking, but he didn't care. He said quietly: "The girl is not from the concubine's house, how can she have the concubine's things."

I said: "Back to father-in-law, the daughter of the people is not a member of the palace. Today she entered the palace with the Liang Xu family. She left, but the daughter of the people did not follow. My mother-in-law said that my father-in-law can help the women of the people get out of the palace."

Eunuch An's face was deep and there was no expression on his face. He thought for a moment and then said: "I understand. Don't be anxious. I can't take you out of the palace until I turn in my shift at noon. You can rest here first. Later, I will take you out of the palace." Wei Lan will give you his clothes in exchange."

After he finished speaking, he hurried away and the door was closed from the outside.Finally, it was noon. I wore the clothes and hat of the young eunuch Wei Lan and followed Mr. An towards the city gate.

Not far away, a young eunuch hurried over and said while wiping his sweat: "I finally found your old man. Your Majesty asked you and Eunuch Feng to go to the Xu Mansion."

"Didn't the emperor take a nap? Why are you going to Xu Mansion now?"

"I had rested, but for some reason I got up again. I wrote an edict and called for my father-in-law to go to the Xu Mansion."

An Gonggong said: "You go back first, I will be there right away."

As soon as the young eunuch left, Eunuch An lowered his voice and said, "It can't be done now. You go back first and look for opportunities later."

I agreed and went back along the same path. When I looked back, I saw Mr. An walking away in a hurry.

The emperor seems to have written an imperial edict on the spur of the moment. What is it?Is it a good thing or a bad thing?Considering the relationship between Prime Minister Xu and the Emperor, it must not be a bad thing.

I sighed secretly, now I can't protect myself, and I don't know if I can get out of the palace smoothly, so why should I worry about other people's affairs?What's more, the Xu family doesn't need anyone else to worry about it.

When Wei Lan saw me leaving and coming back, he was surprised and said with an apologetic smile: "But what happened to my godfather?"

I said "hmm" and said, "I'm going to the Xu family to deliver the imperial edict."

Wei Lan hissed and said, "This is weird."

He held his chin and thought for a while, then said, "Don't worry, girl, your godfather is here, and I'm sure the girl will be able to leave the palace. Please rest, girl, and eat something." After that, he closed the door and went out.

There was a box of exquisite pastries on the table. I had not touched any water since the morning. I only felt thirsty and not hungry, so I only drank some tea and sat quietly on the chair to wait.

I took a nap, sometimes awake and sometimes confused. I vaguely felt that the sun was setting and the room was getting darker.

The door creaked softly, and I quickly stood up. Wei Lan came over with a lamp, lighting the lamp in the room and saying:

"I guess there are a lot of things ahead. My godfather hasn't come back yet. The girl won't be able to leave tonight. The palace gate is locked."

At Haishi, Eunuch An came.

He looked serious, sat on the chair, and said after a while: "Liang Xu committed suicide."

The emperor issued an edict, reprimanding Xu Ruxin for trespassing into the palace, and asked Liang Xianyi to write a letter of divorce. He also ordered Xu Ruxin to shut up and think about her mistakes, and was banned from the Xu Mansion for a year.

Xu Ruxin accepted the order, and in the middle of the afternoon, while the maid went out, she hung the beam with a silk handkerchief.

When the news came back to the palace, the emperor was so angry that he threw the teacup and scolded Xu Ruxin for being "ignorant."

The emperor's dragon body was already in bad shape, so he became angry and fainted. All the people serving in front of him were in a panic for most of the day.

After Eunuch An finished speaking, he looked at me and said, "I wonder what the relationship between the girl and this Xu family is? If she can leave the girl to go to the concubine to intercede for the prince, she must be treated with great respect."

I recovered from the shock and said softly: "By scolding Sister Xu for being ungrateful, is it because the Prime Minister and the Emperor want to protect her?"

I shook my head gently and said in a solemn voice: "What better way is it to ask the prince to write a letter of divorce... They underestimate Sister Xu's affection for the prince."

I turned my face and looked at Eunuch An with blurry eyes: "The concubine trusts the father-in-law. A daughter of the people should tell the truth. The daughter of the people is surnamed Lin. She was once engaged to the prince. Now these are not important. Sister Xu After picking it out, what are they going to do next? Are they searching the palace like they did with the Cao family? They just want to get rid of their worries. In the past, they said they were relatives of the emperor, and the princes who were personally named by the emperor were all fake, right? How did they ever put it? Has he seen it in person?..."

"Shh-" Mr. An shook his head and said, "Even if the girl is rotten to her stomach, don't say this a second time."
