The First Traitor [Rebirth]

The weather has been getting cooler recently, with the feeling of early autumn.The people in the capital felt that the nearest capital also responded to that sentence - troubled times.

First, there was a riot in the capital because of the medicinal materials, and then because the daughter of the former scholar's family was forcibly accepted as a disciple by the masters of the Western Regions, she was taken away from the capital.

Some people's thoughts are not simple: "What kind of master in the Western Regions, I'm afraid he eloped with someone, and deliberately said that he followed the master to practice martial arts in order to cover up the scandal?!"

"Elope? How could a former bachelor's daughter do such a thing!" Someone retorted.

"Why can't it be done? The eldest son has been wandering around the place of fireworks all year round and behaved badly; the second son also took the woman from the Goulang Pavilion back as a concubine; naturally, the daughter will not be much better!"

"You don't seem to have been to the land of fireworks, you don't seem to have a concubine! Being able to give birth to a person like you, does it mean that your father and his family are all misbehaving?"

"Don't you insult my parents!" The man was furious, and immediately started beating him.

Fights and troubles are naturally dealt with by the government, and the spectators began to discuss again: "I heard that the master of the Western Regions is Xuan Lanzi, one of the ten elders of the Qingling Sect in the Tianshan Mountains of the Western Regions, and she is a woman with excellent martial arts! She met the daughter of Nayuan Mansion at the Xianghuo Temple three months ago, and felt that she had amazing bones, suitable for practicing their Tianshan Qingling Sect's martial arts, so she said at that time that she would come to take her as an apprentice in three months."

"Then the former bachelor is happy?"

"I'm not happy! What's more, King Qi is proposing marriage to the Yuan family for the eldest prince. How can the Yuan family be willing to let the daughter of the Yuan family go to the people to suffer? When she comes back, there may not be many men who dare to marry her." Already!"

"In that case, why didn't the Yuan Mansion set up its defenses earlier, and only came after him now that he was taken away?"

"Hey, who is the original bachelor? That's the Wenyuan Pavilion scholar! Who would dare to touch his daughter? He thought that no one would dare to touch his daughter, so he didn't take Xuan Lanzi's words to heart. But who would have thought that this People in the rivers and lakes are reckless people, who cares about the affairs of the court?!"

"What about the original family?"

"What else can I do, let's post a list and offer rewards!"

"But the Western Regions are different from the Central Plains, can they be recovered?"

The affairs of the Yuan Mansion are always irrelevant to the common people, so it's fine to talk about them after dinner.What they cared about was always the things that were closely related to them, just like how soon after the riot happened because of the medicinal materials, the matter suddenly reached the ears of the emperor.

The emperor felt that there was something wrong with this matter, so he ordered a thorough investigation of the matter.It doesn't matter if you don't investigate, but the investigation involved the prince, Liang Wang, and Zhao Wang.

Knowing that it was because of the matter of offering medicine for himself, the people inside and outside the capital were disturbed, what a bastard!What made the emperor most angry was that his son didn't know how to respect brotherhood. Although Liang Wang and Zhao Wang were suspected of following suit, they did so out of filial piety. With the mind of an older brother, how can he care about the world in the future? !

The emperor called the prince in alone and scolded him. If the palace servants hadn't prepared the medicine long ago, the emperor would have been pissed off by this incident.But the emperor was most annoyed when he found out about it, he was so angry that his chest was tight and short of breath, but fortunately Liu Xiao asked someone to bring the medicine so that he would not pass out.

The palace people had received the news a long time ago, and they mentioned a few words when the emperor summoned the prince.The crown prince's officials offered their words one after another, and they went in first to complain about their grievances and to separate themselves from the relationship!

Coincidentally, Feng Ying, who was once a good teacher of the prince, has retired, and still bears the title of the prince's young teacher, came back to Beijing to look for the prince after recovering from illness. The dragon body is fine, let His Royal Highness take full charge of presiding over the queen's birthday banquet?"

How could the prince forget that he had slandered the emperor at that time, obviously the emperor asked him to be in charge of the birthday banquet, so don't worry about the emperor, but turned around and blamed himself for not visiting!

"His Royal Highness, the emperor said so, but he hoped that you would persist in your filial piety after all. If you could learn from Na Yuanye, the emperor would not blame you, but would praise you greatly." Feng Ying said.

"Then what should I do?"

"His Royal Highness, the emperor only summoned you and didn't let anyone else enter the palace, because he doesn't want this to become a big issue. As long as you tell the truth and show that you are only for the emperor, you don't want to compete with the two princes." Meaning, even if the emperor scolds you, he will never deal with it." Feng Ying said, "It's just that we have to give up some people for this matter!"

The prince was a little unwilling. Since Zhang Songwei was dismissed from the position of Minister of the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Officials had carried out a small transfer, and it could not be said that he was completely in control of it.Although the household department is still in his hands, the emperor suddenly wanted to deal with the embezzlement of the Luochuan mansion, and many of his party members were cut off.Now that he is asked to give up some people, his loss is also very heavy.

"His Royal Highness, the world will be yours in the future, how can you fight for it?" Feng Ying said.

The prince got an idea, went to the palace to meet the emperor, and did not refute, but sincerely admitted his mistake, and said that he was only for the emperor, and never thought of competing with his two younger brothers for medicinal materials.

Although the emperor did not fully believe his words, his mood improved a lot. Seeing this, the prince finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, the emperor asked, "Then why did the Ministry of Punishments sentence an innocent citizen to exile?"

The prince pretended to be at a loss: "My son doesn't know about this matter!"

However, it was found in the submitted memorial that Yue Xianliang, the shopkeeper of Qiaochuntang, was framed by someone for dispensing the wrong dose of medicine, causing a patient to be poisoned.After receiving the report, the magistrate of the capital went to arrest Yue Xianliang, tortured him, and finally handed over his confession to the Ministry of Punishment, but the Ministry of Punishment did not verify it and sentenced him to exile for thousands of miles.

Now that the case has been found out, it was the magistrate who designed to frame the shopkeeper because Yue Xianliang didn't follow his orders and had a relationship with the truth.Yue Xianliang's wife brought her children to find Yuan Jing, but she didn't understand anything, and thought that they were protecting each other, that's why Yuan Jing let her husband go.

The magistrate was recruited as soon as he was beaten by the board. Back then, he wanted to marry Yuan Ye and marry his daughter to Yuan Li.Unexpectedly, Yuan's family looked down on his daughter's background in every possible way, and he has always held a grudge, but Yuan Ye's position is high and powerful, and he has nothing to do.This time, with the crown prince backing him, he vented his anger on Yue Xianliang, and intentionally spread the news that it was the original man who did what he did before and what he did behind.

But the emperor understood that if the yamen were really tortured, then the Ministry of Criminal Justice would not be so confused when reviewing the case. This shows that someone in the Ministry of Criminal Justice was in collusion with the prefect, and a lot of people were involved after a vigorous investigation.

The emperor thought again: "What's the matter with the minister of the Ministry of punishment and the minister of the Ministry of punishment? This happened under their noses, so they don't know at all? How can they manage the Ministry of punishment with such incompetence?"

So Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice was scolded by the emperor, and his official achievements at the end of the year might not look very good.Not to mention the two servants below, not to mention one of them is Zhang Songwei.

When the emperor saw his name, he almost forgot about him. Unexpectedly, this happened again in the place under his jurisdiction.Because of heart disease and bad mood, he hated this person even more, and said: "I'm afraid this person is not good enough to take on important responsibilities!"

When Zhang Songwei heard the news, his face turned pale. It was clear that not only was he hopeless for promotion, but he might even be demoted!

Liu Xiao, the emperor's confidant and chief eunuch, saw all this, and when he saw Yuan Jing again, he couldn't help but speculate in his heart: She just said that to the emperor unintentionally, so no one would believe her. It's just that the emperor must have known it, so why did he follow Yuan Jing's intention?

But he quickly figured it out: the emperor naturally knew it, but he enjoyed the feeling that he could still easily decide the fate of the people below.They fear him and come to flatter him, only he can give them glory and wealth, only he is the only one in the world!Only with this feeling, he felt that this seat was not so boring!

At this time in the Yuan Mansion, Yuan Lu was full of anger, watching Yuan Mixue's maid being whipped: "Why didn't you talk about it at the time?"

The servant girl was whipped ten or so times before being rescued by Yuan Ye. Her face was covered with tears mixed with sweat: "I don't know what happened."

"You are Miss's personal maid, don't you know? Where were you at that time?"

Yuan Ye said: "Enough is enough, the person has been taken away, what's the point of blaming the servant girl again?!"

"Master! That's your own daughter, your only daughter! How can you bear to watch her being taken away? Not to mention whether there is any danger, her innocence is hard to guarantee! In the future, in the future..."

Yuan Ye had a serious face: "I have sent someone to look for it, what do you want from me?! You don't need to mention this matter in the future, whoever dares to mention it again, the family law will serve you!"

"Master..." Amid Yuan Lu's angry and crying voice, Yuan Ye walked towards Yuan Mixue's courtyard.

The day before Yuan Mixue was taken away, Yuan Ye felt that Yuan Mixue was unusually quiet.It is said that Yuan Mixue was the only person who had contact with Xuan Lanzi at that time, why was she not nervous or worried when the three month period was approaching?

No matter what, every time he sees the items in Yuan Mixue's boudoir, he will always think of him.He didn't know whether Yuan Mixue would suffer hardships or be bullied outside, so he regretted turning a blind eye to let someone take her away.

The day before Yuan Mixue was taken away, she was still relaxing in the garden with the rabbit in her arms. As Yuan Ye saw, she did not show any abnormalities.

"Little Er." Yuan Mixue called out while hugging the rabbit, "You're growing so fast, in a few days, I won't be able to hug you!"

The servant girl asked, "Miss, why did you suddenly name the rabbit 'Xiaoer'?"

Yuan Mixue snorted: "Because some people don't count what they say and lie, their teeth will grow like rabbits! That's why I call it Xiaoer!"

The servant girl was confused when she heard that, Yuan Mixue played with the rabbit in her arms for a while, her expression flashed with loneliness again: "Xiao Er, don't forget this place."

Yuan Mixue doesn't want to get married, so even if she doesn't want to part with her family and everything here, she thinks she should just let it happen!If that person really took her away by force, then if she has no ability to resist, then let it go!If the original family protected her and allowed her to stay, then she would also obey her fate and marry according to the arrangement...

When Xuan Lanzi came in front of Yuan Mixue, the entire Yuan Mansion was plunged into darkness and silence, and Xuan Lanzi's arrival did not attract the attention of the guard.

Yuan Mixue was a little at a loss for her own destiny that was about to be changed: "You really came!"

"I, Xuan Lanzi, will do what I say."

Yuan Mixue remembered the same words, she smiled, picked up the bag she had packed long ago, and then picked up the rabbit, and was led by Xuan Lanzi quietly over the wall.

It was quiet outside Yuan Mansion, only the two lanterns in front of the door swayed slightly when the autumn wind blew.

Suddenly, Yuan Mixue saw a figure in a white robe in the darkness, standing quietly at the corner outside the wall of Yuan Mansion.

Yuan Mixue suddenly remembered those words: "When did Second Brother lie to you? Since you don't want to marry, then don't marry!" Her heart suddenly became hot.

The author has something to say: Xiaoxue has gone to great things.
