incense as a medium

Chapter 147

"Didn't my son go to Jingwei Port a month ago?" The fifth prince also reacted: "My son just came back today."

He also complained a lot, and before he could figure out what was going on, he was pulled over to save his mother and concubine.

"When did you go?" The imperial concubine had already calmed down completely, and she invited someone in to re-groom her.

The fifth prince got up and sat opposite the imperial concubine, and said: "My son left more than ten days ago, and he said he was an envoy from the Wa country."

The Fifth Prince is in charge of the Ministry of Rituals, so he should be the one to deal with this matter. In the past, no one would have thought about it, but now the concubine has to think about it, and picked up a jade comb to play with: "Then It was just a few days before the incident, it seems that they have already made a plan!"

The noble concubine slapped it down with her palm, and the jade comb in her palm was shattered, and the maid who combed her hair quickly knelt down without a sound.

The noble concubine got up and walked back and forth with her hair loose. Seeing this, the confidant maid hurriedly led everyone back down. With the sound of closing the door, the noble concubine stopped suddenly, looked at the fifth prince, and said: "It seems that this matter has something to do with that Can't get rid of it!"

"Who?" The fifth prince didn't react for a moment.

The imperial concubine narrowed her eyes and looked outside, and said: "Emperor noble concubine! She is the only one in this palace who can quietly seal the news around me!"

The Fifth Prince frowned, a little puzzled: "The imperial concubine has always lived in seclusion... Besides, what good does it do her?"

In fact, he wanted to say that the imperial concubine is extremely simple and kind, and she doesn't look like the person who does this, but in this palace, is there anyone who is really simple and kind?

The imperial concubine sneered, and said: "Aren't the women in this palace just thinking about those things? She doesn't have a son to rely on, but Concubine Yu has one! These two good friends are like one person, and they can't be kept together. She is for Concubine Yu and for Concubine Yu." What is the Ninth Prince doing!"

The Fifth Prince was taken aback, and murmured: "Ninth Brother is still young."

In my impression, the Ninth Prince should still be the little kid who followed behind me to play outside the palace, unwilling to do homework, asked me to help him with writing, had to clean up for him when he got into trouble, and refused to take medicine when he was sick. Can you compete with yourself for that position so quickly?

The imperial concubine gave him a sidelong glance, and said coldly: "You are small, but you have a big heart. You are too honest, and everyone will bully you!" As she spoke, her eye circles turned red again: "Otherwise, I will It’s not like you’re going to bully you anymore. It’s been really difficult for Bang Geer these few years. His mother said that when he came home a few years ago, the scars on his body filled up his thin body. This He didn't have to charge forward for two years, and he got better just now, but he earned it back with his life..."

The noble concubine started crying again, and the fifth prince hurriedly persuaded him: "Although I just found out about this, but now is really not the time for us to move. The mother and concubine can rest assured that the emperor will not touch my uncle."

"Really?" The imperial concubine was really confused these days, and asked hastily after hearing what the fifth prince said.

"It's natural," the fifth prince hurriedly handed over the handkerchief, and said, "Even we can see the flaws, and it's impossible for the father not to see it, so mother and concubine don't worry, it's good for the little uncle to rest at home .”

The imperial concubine felt worried when she thought of the tight defense of the imperial study today: "Then what is your father doing in the imperial study?"

The fifth prince was a little distracted, and hurriedly said after hearing the words: "What Yi Erchen means is to discuss giving Qi Peiyun a reward."

The noble concubine frowned and said, "Didn't Qi Peiyun work for you?"

The noble concubine didn't know about the quarrel between Qi Peiyun and the fifth prince, and the fifth prince didn't want to talk about it, so he mumbled a few words and comforted the concubine, reassuring that Kang Yibang would be fine, and the concubine finally felt relieved.

However, after this side survived, the rewards and punishments for Qi Peiyun over there were also discussed, and the imperial decree was drawn up, and the Qianhu who escorted Kang Yibang to Beijing also entered the palace and met with the emperor.

"Master Kang said that the imperial decree is to 'remand to Beijing' instead of interrogation, so we can't force him to go to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, but he just sent him home." The words were repeated.

The emperor didn't say anything and waved people to go down. In a blink of an eye, people drafted an order to ground Kang Yibang in Kang's house. As for the time limit, he didn't say anything. It might not be a few days, or it might be infinitely long.In short, this life was saved.

The imperial concubine was really satisfied that such a crime of collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country would have such an end. After learning of the imperial decree, the imperial concubine specially dressed up and went to the emperor to plead guilty.

People say that a husband and wife have a hundred days of kindness, and the emperor and the noble concubine also have a long time of kindness. Anyway, the emperor followed suit and forgave the noble concubine's previous gaffe, and also rewarded her with something to comfort her previously injured heart.

On the surface everything looked fine, however, after a few days, the imperial concubine found that she had fewer people under her command, at least the hidden stakes planted in many places in the palace were pulled out silently.

Although the imperial concubine was angry, but now it is better to have one more thing than one less thing, so she didn't dare to investigate.As for the Kang family outside, Mr. Kang was reprimanded by the emperor several times because of his poor handling of affairs, and even the few people who were promoted with Mr. Kang were also dismissed. The fifth prince was much more patient than the imperial concubine, and when the Kang family came to him, he only talked left and right and didn't say anything else.

Here is safe, the emperor went to the imperial concubine's place again, chatting with the concubine, somehow the children's marriage was discussed.

The imperial concubine sighed faintly, and said: "Speaking of which, my niece's fate is unlucky. She died before she became a relative. My younger siblings are really crying like tears."

"The one you said to the Kang family boy?" The emperor thought for a while before matching up.

The imperial concubine rubbed the corners of her eyes with her handkerchief, and said, "That's right. The marriage we made in 27 years didn't exist in 28 years. If you say that this kid from the Kang family is a character on the battlefield, he also values ​​friendship. It's okay if he doesn't go through the door." After so many years of hard work, how old is he now? Is he in his twenties? It's time to kiss him."

The emperor was playing with the teacup in his hand, and suddenly said with a smile: "Is the imperial concubine crying to you?"

The imperial concubine laughed and said: "Then how can it be? It's too late for my sister to avoid it now. I only remembered it when I was my younger brother and sister. I delayed him because of my niece in the early years, and now I am grounded at home again. It's not easy to find such a marriage. I'm afraid the Kang family is also anxious to have a grandson."

"They don't have any grandchildren yet?" The emperor sneered, threw the tea bowl away, and said, "Come on, I'll go to Concubine Yu to have a look."

The imperial concubine suppressed her smile, got up and sent the emperor out, looked at the teacup that was still spinning on the table in a daze for a while when she came back, and then laughed again.

Liu Bailu lived in Xiongtang County for more than ten days and did not return to Yongkang Pass. There was nothing he could do. The folks here were too enthusiastic.

After eating the flowing water banquet that day, someone came to ask Qi Peiyun to go out for dinner. At first, Qi Peiyun was reluctant to go, but there were too many people here, and he wanted to leave but couldn't. Being able to bring a pair of daughters to a banquet, among other things, bringing a daughter at least prevents drinking, right?

As time passed, the saying that the great hero who defeated the Dayan tribe was afraid of his wife came out. Qi Peiyun didn't care, and still wandered the streets with his daughters every day.

During this period, Master Du brought Du Shuang to the door with various gifts and thanked him formally. Liu Bailu looked at Du Shuang, probably she didn't tell Master Du anything, which made Liu Bailu feel guilty. Du Shuang repeatedly said that it was just an accident, and she was relieved only after she didn't take it to heart.

After living in her natal family for half a month, she should go back no matter how happy she is, not to mention there is a Qin family staring at them all day with a straight face, Liu Bailu really can't live anymore.

They had just packed their things that day and were about to leave in their car when they heard the sound of "Imperial Decree Arrived" spread throughout Lihua Lane.

Liu Bailu's heart skipped a beat, and she felt a little scared when she looked at Qi Peiyun.

These days, there has been no news. Liu Bailu feels that no news is good news. After all, it is a great credit to others, but it is a big taboo for the superiors. It is very fragrant.

As for Kang Yibang not being convicted, Liu Bailu really felt it was a pity, but it was also within Qi Peiyun's expectation. After all, the Kang family's deep-rooted desire to move Kang Yibang did not take a while, let alone , He still has a more important piece of evidence that he has not presented.

If the emperor really wanted to deal with Kang Yibang, he would order a thorough investigation, and the evidence would be handed over, but the emperor didn't think about investigating, and he was still rushing to send things up here, so the motive was not quite right. Simple, even if this is true, but in the eyes of the emperor, there are many doubts.

Liu Bailu hugged the child and knelt to listen to the decree, only to hear that the decree was very long, one was over, and before she realized it, another decree came down, waiting for Liu Junge and Qi Peiyun to meet each other After realizing the purpose, when she was helped up by someone, she came to her senses and asked Liu Sushi: "Mother, this is..."

Liu Su nodded with tears in her eyes and said: "Your father's case has been overturned, and your father-in-law's case has also been overturned. Your father has been promoted to a small county magistrate. Although he has to start from scratch, it is better than staying here. Your father-in-law has regained his title, although it is a vacant position, but he will have a salary in the future, and you can go back to Beijing."

For people like Liu Su who grew up in Beijing, the border is bitterly cold, and nowhere is as good as Beijing.

But Liu Bailu thinks it is very good here, at least it is free, and there are not so many calculations between people.

Liu Bailu was stunned for a while listening to his mother's words, and then asked: "Mother, what about that matter?"
