Time has passed, and within a few days after the envoy Liang entered Shu, the case of Tuoba Tao began to emerge—he was actually hiding in the Murong Mansion in the middle of Shu!Once this news was sent back to Beijing, there was an uproar in the court.

In order to clear himself up, the king of Shu naturally ordered a thorough investigation!

Murong Shen, the head of the Murong family, argued that he didn't know about it, saying that his wife, Dugu, was the mastermind of this matter: because Tuoba Tao was her cousin-in-law, she took in the traitor couple who came to the south because of nostalgia!It's a pity that this theory is difficult to win Daliang's trust, because the Murong family and the Tuoba family were ministers in the same dynasty, which can be called old acquaintance.

Everyone with a discerning eye now knows that if the king of Shu wants to protect himself, he must use the Murong family to block this arrow!

After the first lunar month, there is still no sign of warming up in Beijing. Instead, it has been raining for days, and the damp and cold air is pervasive, making people feel more chilly.

Such weather is not conducive to the recovery of the sick body.Rousu has been ill for more than ten days, and she is still not getting better. Apart from careful treatment, there is no other way for her.Shijie had already recovered, but he cared about his younger sister and couldn't bear to leave, so he asked him to stay a little longer to wait for Rousu to recover before leaving for Shu.Nangong Ji couldn't bear to refuse, thinking that if he stayed, not only would he comfort Rou Su, but he could also relieve his boredom.Then promised.

Spring nights are empty and silent, and you are always bored. If you have to drink alone, the time will be much easier to pass.

After drinking for three rounds, Shijie seemed to be drunk, and his behavior became more casual. He looked at the people sitting above him and said: "The case of Tuoba Tao has attracted criticism from all courts, but His Highness didn't look at it in the slightest. , do you have a bottom in your heart?"

Nangong Ji said: "What's the use of being alarmed when something happens? It's better to watch the changes quietly and let fate!"

Shijie said: "I heard that Lord Liang thinks highly of His Highness, since the case has not been settled, why don't His Highness take this opportunity to come forward and settle the case, or you can persuade Lord Liang to avoid being held accountable!"

Nangong Ji couldn't help but laugh when he heard that: "It was said that you, Yuwen Shijie, are extremely intelligent, but you can still make such absurd remarks? This case can stir up such a storm, it must not be groundless, let alone now that the matter has been verified. What is the crime of taking in traitors, do I still need to say? If I want to argue more now, don’t I know it myself?”

Shijie was dumbfounded.After a while, he seemed to say to himself: "So, what should I do?"

Nan Gongji didn't take it seriously, and said: "It's easy for Daliang not to go into the matter, but the one who pushed out the instigator will be charged with this crime!"

Shijie was stunned: "This... Your Highness means... But Murongshen, who has been in charge of the military academy with my father for many years, can be called a minister of the brawn in the middle of Sichuan!"

Nangongji smiled: "This is just my unintentional speculation. I don't know what daddy is thinking! Besides, this matter has nothing to do with your Yuwen family in the end, so what are you doing so leisurely? Let's just drink!" , Then teach people to pour wine again.

The two families of Yuwen and Murong have always been in the same party, and they have long been feared by the King of Shu. Now that the case of Tuoba Tao has come out, the Murong family has been convicted. The King of Shu will not miss this opportunity!If the Murong family falls, the Yuwen family will not be spared sooner or later!This is normal.Nangongji really didn't want to see Yuwen Shijie go astray after only meeting him once, so he made this remark in the hope that he could learn from it, so that he could reflect on himself, and Mo Yan passed on his father Yuwen Yuanying's wolfish ambition.

But it is not known whether Shijie listened to his advice at the moment, but what happened in Beijing a few days later made Nangongji feel dangerous again.

Regarding the case of Tuoba Tao, the reason why Nan Gongji is not very worried is that he has already foreseen it in his heart!However, what would have been expected was that one wave would not settle down, another wave would arise again, and what happened afterwards made everything confusing again, and it also made Nangongji confused: it seems that somewhere, there is a conspiracy brewing, the purpose is to kill him in Sichuan. Push into the realm of treason!

It turned out that in the past two days, a shocking news came out from the court---Xia Zhiwang, the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, was assassinated!Fortunately, he was only slightly injured, and the murderer was caught on the spot: the four assassins were all from Qiang Jie!

According to the matter, if there is no case of Tuoba Tao, there would be no suspense.It's a pity that things didn't happen by coincidence, because of this gap, and Xia Zhiwang insisted on prosecuting the people in Sichuan in the case of Tuoba Tao, which inevitably made people suspicious.

Suspicion in the imperial court was unstoppable, but Nan Gongji was frightened after hearing only a few words in it.I want to enter the palace to make a statement, but I am afraid that people will think that I am trying to cover up, so I hesitate.

Several days passed, and finally heard the news that Tuoba Taojiao was escorted to Beijing.Along with him, the younger brother of the King of Shu, Rong An Hou Nangong Dechang, came here on the grounds of expressing his feelings, and thanked him for the crime of ignorance on behalf of the King of Shu!

Let's talk about the Murong clan: Murong Sheng was old and sick, and when this happened, he was frightened and paralyzed by a stroke. No need to mention it; his sons Murong Hao, Murong Hao, Murong Hao, etc. were involved in it, and the guilt cannot be escaped, so they were bound to Beijing and waited to be punished!

Hearing this, Nan Gongji had to praise his father for being wise: he made a decisive decision, he not only got rid of his confidant's serious troubles, but also explained to Daliang, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone!

Time flew by, and it was mid-February in a blink of an eye.The weather seems to be getting warmer suddenly, and the flowers and trees in the courtyard are also full of vitality.

Walking alone in the backyard, looking around, the grass is still sparse, and the new branches that have just been pulled out are only adorned with fresh yellow and green.Looking up and looking far away, the eyes are attracted by a few clusters of pink. After thinking about it, I think, aren't those two red plums that I planted together with Chaoyun in the early years?Now the flowers and trees are still there, but the human face is not, which is really impressive.

As I approached, I saw a person standing under the flowers: the blue dress, and the pink flowers that flourished on the branches, also formed an interesting contrast.

This situation makes people fall into a trance again, and the sentimental woman Yiting whispers softly in the past, amidst the colorful flowers and reds. . .It is also this elegant green like water, which is the same delicate and slim. . .

The woman under the flower finally heard the sound and turned around: Lihuayumian, but not Yiren.

After being ill, Rousu's figure is now more and more slender, and there is still a little sickness in her elegant smile, which makes people feel pitiful.

Although it was afternoon, the sun was very bright, but the breeze was still a bit chilly.It's the time when it's warm and cold.

Nangong Ji raised his eyebrows: "Why did you come out?" There seemed to be blame in his words.

Rou Su was startled, but she didn't know what wrong she had committed, so she had to apologize.

Nangong Ji knew that she had misunderstood, so he had to put in a good word: "You are still sick, and the weather is hot and cold this day. I am afraid that you will catch cold easily if you are blown by the wind. If you think about it, you should rest more and move less."

Only then did Rou Su get rid of her uneasiness, and replied: "My concubine's illness is almost healed, but she just lays down in the room for a long time, and feels rather bored. I heard that there are plum blossoms blooming here just right, so I took advantage of the warming up in the afternoon. Going out for a walk in the green might give you some refreshment if you think about it.”

Nangongji nodded, and said with emotion: "You are new here, you are not accustomed to the environment, and there are few people around you, so you should be lonely. This is really hard for you. But what do you want and ask for right now, you can tell me, I will Do your best to be satisfied."

Rousu thanked herself, but said: "I am accompanied by the maid who has been with me since I was a child, and my elder brother is still by my side, so I don't feel lonely; besides, in this Bianliang environment, I am gradually docile now! Besides! The mansion takes good care of everything, and I have nothing else to ask for."

Hearing this, Nan Gongji admired it in his heart, but said: "However, you have left your parents for the first time, so it is inevitable that you have something to worry about."

Rou Su seemed a little sad when she heard it, turned around and said quietly: "Mother has passed away, father... he is busy with foreign affairs all day long, and he is not often at home..." Then he thought for a while, or felt that this statement was not very human , Then he said again: "It's natural to worry about it, but fortunately it won't become a worry."

Nan Gongji also sighed, but saw her turn around and said with a smile: "In the end, when the concubine left, the princess was the one who was most reluctant."

Nangong Ji also laughed: "Biyue has had few playmates since she was young, but she is only close to you. If you leave, she will be lonely!"

Rousu sighed softly: "When I went to Beijing, the princess was really reluctant to give up in every possible way. Although I grew up with her, it was the first time I saw her like that... She wanted to come with her, but she didn't have the king's permission, so for a few days I don't think about food...at the moment, I don't know what to do..." As he spoke, the circles of his eyes turned red.

Nangong Ji shook his head helplessly, this is indeed what Bi Yue's temperament can do.After turning around for a while, he asked, "Then... how about the second brother? How is he?"

Rou Su seemed to think back for a moment, and said: "Second Highness... seems to be quite different from before, always unhappy, and I don't know why..."

Nangong Ji turned around and sighed: Second brother Yu, I really owe something.

Now that Rou Su is well, Nan Gongji also felt relieved, and was about to say a few more words of comfort to her, but he heard that he came to report: Someone is coming from the palace!

As he was going forward, Nangongji couldn't help but doubts arose in his heart. Thinking of what happened in the past, could there be another change in his mind?still. . .What's new?When asked about Ling Qi, he replied that there should be nothing important, but that it was inconvenient to give the rewards given in the first month according to the rules, but now he thought of it, so Pei Yuanshi led two yellow gates to send it.Nangong Ji felt relieved.

He ordered him to take the opportunity to say: "Since Mr. Pei came here in person, Mr. Lang might as well inform the lady about her entry into Beijing. The earlier the instructor knows, the better she will be granted the title earlier. Besides, the cold food festival is approaching, and it is uncertain when the wife will be able to get it." Some extra rewards."

Nan Gongji pondered for a long while, and said: "The matter before has not subsided, so I am in a hurry to ask for the title for my wife, it is not appropriate."

Ling Qi said: "Sooner or later, it is common sense, why should you hesitate?" Seeing that he was still noncommittal, he turned to laugh and said: "Speaking of which, the lady's illness is always cured, and the gentleman can go to Ningxiang Pavilion tonight ?”

Nangong Ji swung his sleeves and scolded: "You bastard, you are troublesome again!"

In the front hall, Pei Yuanshi had been waiting for a while.Seeing Nangong Ji, he explained the purpose of coming, and it was exactly the same as Ling Qi's previous words.Nangongji thanked him for his thanks, so he ordered him to go and collect some gifts.

There are only two hosts and guests in the room at present.

Yuan Shi took a sip of tea and sighed: "These days there are frequent turmoil outside, which is really embarrassing for Mr. Lang."

Nan Gongji said: "If a villain causes trouble, he should reap the consequences for himself! I am in the middle of Shu, and it is my duty to be a minister. I have no two hearts. I will not lightly indulge those who have different ideas! I am loyal in the upper body, and I will not be moved by rumors. A thorough investigation has finally revealed the truth, and Ji Zi is very grateful."

Yuan Shi praised: "Lang Junguo is a Qingming person! But in the past, although the rumors have passed, the rumors have not stopped. I hope you will be cautious, keep a low profile, and leave no room for outsiders!"

Nangongji claimed to be.

The gifts have been ordered and collected, and it's getting late, Yuan Shi wanted to say goodbye, but when he got up, he seemed to have no intention of saying: "I heard that there are guests from Sichuan near the house?"

Nangongji was slightly surprised, and said truthfully: "This person is my wife Yuwen, and his brother Yuwen Shijie was ordered to send him to Beijing, but unfortunately, he was caught in the wind and cold for two days and had to stay in the mansion. I will take care of you, so I delayed my return trip. I should have entered the palace to report this matter, but I was caught up in the turmoil, and there was no time for a break. Since the high official is here today, please go to Datian to listen. I will enter the palace in the future Thank you for the crime of delaying the report and keeping guests privately."

Yuan Shi waved his hands when he heard this, and said, "Your Majesty is overwhelmed, I just heard this when I came here, so I just asked casually! Since the new wife came to Beijing, it was a happy event, and I didn't have anything to say about it originally, but... Unfortunately, Xia The Privy Councilor was assassinated just now, and since the newcomer in the Langjun's house, he could have reported it earlier, so as to avoid suspicion!"

When Nangong Ji heard it, his heart trembled slightly.
