Chapter 8 The Imperial Concubine and the Prime Minister Have an Affair 8

[You seem to be in a bad mood lately? 】

Since returning to the palace from winter hunting, Jiang Xinlian has not left the palace. Whenever anyone comes to ask, they only say that they were frightened and were weak, and they are recuperating peacefully.

In fact, he sneaked out of Tingyuxuan every day and found a deserted pavilion to find peace.

"How could I be unhappy?" Jiang Xinlian lazily leaned against the pavilion pillar, slowly piercing the needle and thread in her hand, and the embroidery was twisted and twisted.

"I have been promoted, and the position of Zhaoyi is within my reach. Completing the task is like grabbing something from a bag. I am very happy."

086: ...If you just smile, it might believe it.

[You are not in the palace every day on the excuse of recuperating. What if the emperor discovers...]

"I'm just here for a mission. Do I really want to be like the people of this dynasty, who regard my husband as my heaven and my emperor as my respect?"

She came here to find peace, but 086 kept chattering in her ears every day, making her good temper irritable.

"If you still want to get along well with me, just keep your mouth shut and don't tell me what to do."

During this period of time together, Jiang Xinlian's mood was always light. Except for that time when she expressed her dislike for the emperor and showed a trace of disgust, she was usually calm and calm.

And now...

086 kept her mouth shut, for fear that it would really piss her off and do something crazy. If the world was fundamentally shaken (the hero and heroine died), it would be greatly affected or even destroyed.

With the host's meager conscience and morality, don't doubt it, she can definitely do it, 086 thought sadly.

"Sir, Mr. Li is here to visit. He said he has important matters to discuss."

There are a large number of books stored in the huge study room. The owner of the house stands in front of the bookshelf, holding the book in his hand and reading quietly, as if he didn't hear anything.

The guards did not dare to disturb the prime minister and lowered their heads to wait for orders.

"Li Shilang?" After a long time, Zhuang Heming closed the book, sat behind the desk, and said softly, "Let him come."

Li Shilang waited impatiently in the front hall. It took him a long time to see the butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion come in and said:

"Your Majesty, Mr. Prime Minister, please tell me. Please move to the study."

"Okay, okay," Li Shilang responded repeatedly, and was led into the study by the butler.

Without waiting for Li Shilang to salute and flatter him, Zhuang Heming asked him directly: "You said you have something important to tell me. What is it?"

Li Shilang wanted to get close to him, but when he met the prime minister's cold eyes, his flattery was stuck in his throat.

After thinking for a while, he smiled and said, "Master Zhuang, I'm here to propose marriage to my little girl."

The study fell into silence. Standing in the corner, the guard responsible for guarding the prime minister's safety showed an expression of disbelief.

He didn't know whether to laugh at Li Shilang's whims or to praise him for his courage.

"I seem to have announced to the public that I will not marry or take concubines," Zhuang Heming looked at Li Shilang with a cold expression, "Why do you think I will agree?"

Li Shilang came from a poor family, and it was obviously difficult to climb up to the position of Shilang. He was not a dull-minded person who could not see clearly.

The Imperial Tutor once took a fancy to Zhuang Heming's dazzling talents, but when they failed to negotiate with him, he asked the emperor for an imperial edict to confer marriage. Thinking that it was a sure thing, the Imperial Tutor's house began to prepare the wedding dress for his legitimate daughter. Unexpectedly, Zhuang Heming came with an expressionless face. One sentence:

"If you force me to marry someone who is not the one I love, it would be better to kill the humble minister."

Although the emperor was very angry at his disobedience, he had to bow his head in the end.

After all, Zhuang Heming supported him in ascending to the throne and was his support for so many years. Only with the Prime Minister on his throne could his throne be stable.

Now, Li Shilang, who was the best at judging people, dared to propose marriage to him. Such a bold move must have given him some confidence.

Only kindness and support can give people confidence, and he never owes anyone any kindness.

so......

"What hold do you have against me?" His slender index finger tapped on the table, bringing endless pressure.

Li Shilang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. It had only been a quarter of an hour since he stepped into the study, and before he could even say what he needed to say, he found out the details.

But when I think about the situation in the house, the head wife is the daughter of an emperor's merchant, and she can't provide any help except gold, silver and jewelry;

The legitimate son has no future, he spends all day entertaining cats and dogs, and is unable to bear the responsibility;

The legitimate daughter was stunningly beautiful and entered the palace as a virtuous concubine. However, she got into great trouble during a winter hunt and was rejected by His Majesty. Now only the legitimate second daughter...

But no matter how good my daughter is, what can I do? When he resigns, there will be no one to support the Minister's Mansion!

There is no way out, but just when he was despairing, he actually got hold of the Prime Minister!

Li Shilang wiped away his cold sweat and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, the Prime Minister really knows things like a god."

"During the winter hunt some time ago, His Majesty was attacked by a swarm of bees while he was resting in the camp. Everyone said that it was Concubine De who caused the trouble, but it seems that this is not the case for the subordinates."

Winter hunting? Zhuang Heming stopped tapping his fingers. He finally knew what Li Shilang was talking about.

After the swarm was driven away, while the emperor disliked the concubine, he also had some doubts in his heart. Was it just caused by the improper competition for favor among the concubines in the harem?

Or is it that someone is using the help of Concubine De to assassinate the emperor?

So Zhuang Heming was ordered to investigate the matter thoroughly.

He found the wooden box where De Fei placed the captured butterflies, and there were still subtle clues pointing to that person.

In other words, he already knew it well, so he understood it immediately when he saw this subtle clue.

Eventually he disposed of the crate without reporting the matter to the emperor.

It should have been seen at that time.

"So, what do you want to do?" Zhuang Heming looked at Li Shilang with sharp eyes.

"Prime Minister, you are a talented young man. You were supposed to win the first place in the Emperor's Palace Examination back then, but you were replaced by someone else. I really feel sorry for the Prime Minister."

Li Shilang said, "Now His Majesty actually wants to do what the late Emperor did. Fortunately, Your Excellency was wise enough to dissuade him in time.

The imperial examination is the foundation of the country, and it would not be the actions of a wise king to undermine the fairness of the imperial examination.

Now the second prince has grown up. Although he is weak and sick, with the Prime Minister helping him, the Great Zhou Dynasty will surely become more prosperous! "

After making these treacherous and unjust words, Li Shilang trembled and raised his head to look at the Prime Minister's face. As expected, he saw that there was no anger at all, but an expression of indifference and indifference. He felt happy in his heart and continued:

"The lower officials have little power, but they can help the Prime Minister."

Li Shilang knew very well that the Shilang Mansion had been rejected by the emperor, and he had to find another source of support for the Shilang Mansion!

His Majesty was assassinated, but the Prime Minister knew about it and did not report it. Doesn't it mean that the Prime Minister did it?

Zhuang Heming stood up, walked to the window, and said in a faint voice, whether he responded or not: "Send the waiter out."

Before Li Shilang could anxiously say a few more words, the guard stood in front of him and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, please."

When Li Shilang left unwillingly, Zhuang Heming felt helpless and laughed at himself: "On the contrary, I ruined her plan."

Jiang Xinlian did not send anyone to deal with the wooden box because she knew that even if there was evidence left, it would not be able to point to her. Instead, he would cause trouble for herself.

He stretched out his hand and knocked on the window lattice. A black shadow flashed past, and a person immediately appeared behind him.

"Let's go find out if Shilang Li has publicized this matter in the Shilang's Mansion. If..."

If only he knows, then he alone will die;

If everyone in the family knew about this, they would seize the palace and exile them all.

The secret guard handed over his hand and disappeared in a flash.
