Your Majesty will suffer

Chapter 52 Backyard

After a night of rest, Nan Gongji returned to the mansion early in the morning, slept in the cage again, and woke up at noon.Chaoyun came to serve him lunch, but he seemed a little absent-minded, hesitant to speak several times.

Since this couldn't escape Nan Gongji's eyes, he said, "What's the matter? Could it be that the government's expenses are tight again?"

Chao Yun hurriedly said: "It's not a matter of expense. Now that the house has entered the account every month, if it is still tight, it means that the concubine's family has not done well!"

Nangong Ji smiled and said, "It's not good."

Chao Yun lowered his head and wrung the handkerchief in his hand, pondered for a moment, and said: "Actually, there is something that needs to be decided by my lord today!"

In the main hall, Zhao Yun said lightly: "Bring it up."

Then a servant escorted two maidservants in: it turned out to be Lanxiang and Guier from Liu's room.The two of them knelt under the hall as soon as they entered, with panic on their faces.

Chao Yun gave Huai'an a wink, and said, "Boss Zhou, it's up to you to ask about this matter."

Huai An agreed, and went forward to interrogate the two servant girls: "Last night at the second watch, where are you two?"

Seeing his stern expression, the two became more and more frightened, and neither of them could speak for a moment.

Huai'an snorted coldly, took out a sweat towel from his sleeve, threw it in front of the two of them, and shouted: "Nowadays people have all the stolen goods, bold and lowly maidservants, and you still don't recruit them for the truth!"

When Gui'er saw this thing, she collapsed to the ground.

The two just kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Nangong Ji frowned, and picked up the sweat towel.

Chao Yun hurriedly stopped: "This filthy thing, don't dirty your eyes."

Nangongji only taught people to unfold it and take a rough look, and saw that it was a picture of a willow blowing in the breeze, and the poem mentioned beside it was clumsy, and it was full of three points, it was really unbearable!

Momentarily angry, he said coldly: "Whose person is this?"

Chaoyun glanced at Huai'an.

The latter replied: "Last night, there were thieves breaking into the mansion, and the younger one led people to arrest them, but blocked the two maidservants at the back door, and found this thing on Gui'er, and I heard that the two of them often wandered in the backyard recently." , so bring it back for scrutiny."

Nangong Ji's face was stern.

Huai'an kicked at Gui'er, and said sharply: "You little maid, don't recruit!"

Guier fell to the ground weeping.On the other hand, seeing this, Lan Xiang knew that she had passed this test today, so she gritted her teeth and said, "It belongs to the servant girl!"

Chao Yun stepped forward and slapped her on the cheek, and shouted: "Bad maid, how dare you talk nonsense! If you go to do that dirty thing, you will still take her with you?" He pointed to the sweat towel on the ground: "If your Why do you paint willows and not orchids?"

Huai'an continued, "Yesterday's thief was found dead in the back lake early this morning, or he panicked and lost his footing last night. After identification, it is said to be Liu Niangzi's cousin..."

Nangong Ji waved his hand, Huai An hurriedly stepped aside.

After a moment of silence, Chao Yun's anger gradually subsided, and he said tentatively: "This matter... How do you think Lang Jun will deal with it?"

Nan Gongji got up and walked out, and said in front of the door: "You see."

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it is Zhongqiu again, Nan Gongji takes leave and returns to Shu.

He has been away for many years, it is a great comfort to see his parents well when he comes back this time.After meeting, he confessed to his father.Having not seen each other for several years, how could De Chong have the heart to blame him at the moment? At the beginning, he hated him for causing trouble because of love and worry, fearing that he would have something wrong.Let's say that he had no choice but to send him to the court back then, but who would have expected that he would never return, and every time I think about it, I feel guilty, but now seeing him in high spirits, thinking that Emperor Liang never treated him badly, I am relieved.

It's just that his mother knew that he was especially weak, so she couldn't help worrying, so she asked someone to search for a girl in private, hoping to get a girl with more quality to be by his side.When Nangong Ji heard about it, he naturally reasoned it out bluntly --- after experiencing the past, now, he really doesn't feel that way.

When I returned to Bianliang, the autumn wind was already bleak, and I heard that a major event had happened in the court --- Lu Zi was reinstated as Prime Minister for only half a year, but he was defeated again!

Speaking of this disaster, it still originated in the harem.

Yang Meiren is proud of being favored, and Nan Gongji has also witnessed it, but she doesn't want her to dare to interfere in the government: Kaifeng Mansion has an order, and all gardens and pavilions that invade the people's rivers and roads will be demolished!Unfortunately, his Yang family's private property is also listed!In order to protect the family, the beauty sent her servants to proclaim the edict to exempt from this order!The Kaifeng government refused, and took the servants to the court to confront him. As a result, Yang Meiren failed to protect her family, and instead fell into the crime of coercion!

Let it be vivid and vivid, and narrate how Lin Zhaoyi scolded the beauty in front of the emperor on the day of the incident, how the beauty contradicted Zhaoyi, and how Zhaoyi smashed the beauty. . .

Nangong Ji took a sip of the fragrant tea, and switched his legs on the stool up and down, and said, "This Yang beauty is really reckless! But what does this have to do with the dismissal of old Lu?"

Make him answer the question: "Mr. Lang, do you know how Yang Meiren entered the palace?"

Nangong Ji waved the fan away with one hand: "How do I know, could it be that Old Lu sent it in?"

Ling Qi nodded first, then shook his head: "But it's not the same as saying that."

Nan Gongji looked annoyed: "If you want to say it, say it, it's so mysterious."

Although he made him agree repeatedly, but when the voice changed, he repeated his old trick and asked, "Do you know Cao Ximiao, Mr. Lang?"

Nangong Ji thought for a while, and said, "Old Lu's family?"

Make him laugh and say: "Exactly. He is in Jixian Academy. He knows the edict. He has a lot of power. Speaking of this person, he still has some reputation. Back then, he was the one who taught people to send peonies to the harem from Xijing. He! The so-called 'a concubine who rides the world of mortals laughs'...these two beauties, Yang and Liu, were brought in by him."

Nangong Ji sneered: "That's the case, he, Mr. Lu, can also pretend that he doesn't know!"

Ling Qi said: "The so-called one hundred secrets are lost. Unexpectedly, that beautiful woman Yang is actually Lu Xianggong's aunt and niece! Knowing the details, how can Lin Zhaoyi give up? On the day of the Mid-Autumn Banquet, he was asked face-to-face. I can't dispute it. Unexpectedly, I have been calling the wind and rain in my life, but I have lost half a lifetime of fame because of this small failure. The next day, the gang of Yushitai jointly signed a letter, please punish them! The official had no choice but to issue an order to let the matter go."

Nangong Ji clasped his fans together and laughed loudly: "It's true that one thing is one thing! Then Lu Laoer is still alive today, isn't it that the people of the Outer Court are very happy?"

Make him laugh and say: "No! However, there are also people who suffer innocently, such as that Liu Meiren, who entered the palace with Yang at the beginning, but now he is burdened by him, so they are sent out together, although the official family is lenient , to teach her that she doesn't have to enter Taoism like Yang's, but if she is placed in another house, it may be difficult to see Tianyan again in this life."

Thinking of the beautiful woman in green clothes, Nan Gongji couldn't help sighing.

Besides, now that gardens and pavilions are being demolished in Beijing, the timber business should have plummeted, but Li Qi made a countermeasure and set up a place to buy back old timber at a low price. There is also no shortage of high-quality materials. Ordinary people do some renovations, and they are happy to get benefits, but the poor ones can be sold to craftsmen, and they can be used to make some tables, chairs and cabinets.

Thinking about it, Li Qi had already made a move!Apart from admiration, Nangongji had to sigh, the fruit in his stomach is a business book!

The so-called happy and sad families, the official family recently, life is not very proud.

Lu Zi was demoted, fortunately there was still Wang Sui in charge of the court, although he was not as tactful and decisive as Lu Zi, but he was calm and experienced, and his rule lived up to expectations.

The court is still peaceful, but the urgent need at the moment is the predicament in the west. Previously, the officials accepted Wang Sui's remonstrance and sent the minister Yang Dingzhen to the west to find out the truth!Dingzhen returned to Beijing a month ago, and reported that Tuoba Wenjiao was an arrogance, and he really disdained the proposal of recruiting security, and all parts of the territory were recruiting soldiers to cast weapons!It can be seen from this that his betrayal has become clear!

When Yue Ling heard about it, he was worried, so he asked Wang Sui.He recommended Du Yun, the right secretary, to defend the frontier. Although Yue Ling had doubts in his heart, he had no choice but to follow him.
