The First Traitor [Rebirth]

It turned out that there was no one around to find Nan Lian.Hearing what Chuu Yu said, he realized that it was Yuan Ye who ordered his servants to have no other orders in the future, except for the girl Nan Lian brought, no one should go to Xiuwei Garden.

Yuan actually vaguely understood that Yuan Ye knew that he could not stop them, so he just kept out of sight, and in order to prevent rumors such as "Yuan insulted his sister-in-law while his brother died" from spreading, he had to keep the others from seeing them. .

Without thinking about other things, the Yuan family brought the porridge and vegetables in front of Nan Lian, looked at her eyes reflecting the candlelight, and said, "Eat while it's hot."

Nan Lian looked at her half swollen face and didn't say much, she sat beside Yuan Jing silently, and put a spoonful of porridge to Yuan Jing's mouth.

"It's just that the face was slapped, so it's not like I can't even hold the chopsticks." Yuan actually wanted to show a smile, but he felt pain in the flesh of his face when he moved slightly.She picked up the chopsticks, picked up a vegetable and put it in Nan Lian's bowl, "Eat it, don't wait for it to cool down."

Nan Lian stared at Yuan Jing and said, "Eat it, don't wait for it to cool down, and don't wait for my hands to get sore."

"..." I don't know why, but I think this kind of Nan Lian is more attractive than the Nan Lian who showed her vulnerable side.

She looked around for a while, and then she opened her mouth to eat the porridge Nan Lian fed, and Nan Lian ate the meal in front of her with satisfaction.

"I didn't ask you at the beginning, what happened to Ying Hong, the old maid in Pingyao's former residence?" Yuan Jing asked suddenly.When Ying Hong appeared and said that "the embezzlement incident" had nothing to do with Yuan Ye, she even wondered if she made a mistake in her previous life.But she has seen the ledger, and she is very clear about whether Yuan Ye is innocent or not, having experienced the things in her previous life.

That being the case, why did Ying Hong stand by the Yuan family?At that time, she didn't ask any questions, but now she talked with Nan Lian about many things, and asked questions that had been buried in her heart for a long time.

"Her children are in my hands, she must do this." Nan Lian said lightly.

Yuan Jing's movements froze, and then he smiled clearly: "Good trick, are you not afraid that Ying Hong will tell Pingyao the truth?"

"She knows how to do it." Nan Lian always had confidence in this that Yuan Jing couldn't fathom. She didn't know where it came from before, but now it seems that Nan Lian has experienced a lot more than her.

After eating these meals, Yuan actually went back to his room.She lay on the bed tossing and turning for a long time before slowly falling asleep.She thought she would be dreaming, dreaming about things in her previous life, but before she had time to dream, it was time to go on duty.

She had just handed in her resignation letter, which caused disputes in the court, but she felt that it was still not enough, and the fire was still not strong enough.Using the excuse that she couldn't keep her eyes open because she didn't sleep much this time, she directly wrote a sick note, hid in her room and had a good sleep.

However, not many people believed her sick leave note: "Ill? I'm afraid she is hiding and unwilling to come out to calm the matter?"

"Maybe Yuan Siye really has the intention of resigning?" She didn't want to be an official anymore, and the emperor refused to let her resign, so she had to complain about illness.

"She shouldn't do it too much, so as not to offend the emperor. At such a young age, she wants to learn tricks before she even grows hair, so she is more tender!" The prince's party members cursed in a low voice.

Even the emperor was a little displeased when he heard about it, and said, "She really kicked her nose, is she really sick or is she trying to play something?"

"The doctor said that the residual poison in the original Siye's body has not been cleared." Liu Xiao replied.

"The remaining poison has not cleared up? Oh, then let her rest for a while." The emperor laughed and scolded, "Also, send me an imperial decree to let her have less troubles and come back when she recovers, otherwise don't go back. In my world, it would be nothing if there is one less court.”

Seeing this, Liu Xiao chuckled lightly, and the emperor glared at him, and shouted, "What are you laughing at?"

Liu Xiao restrained his face, but the expression on his face was still not so serious, he replied: "It doesn't seem like the emperor's attitude towards his subjects, it seems to be right..."

"For what?" asked the Emperor with interest.

"May the emperor forgive this old slave for his innocence."

"I know if you don't tell me, do you want to say that I am as tolerant to her as I am to my own child?" said the emperor, he picked up the booklet and glanced at it, and then said again, "I just think she is better than my child." The sons are much more interesting, of course, if such people can become my own family, it will save me a lot of worry.”

Liu Xiao knew what the emperor meant, and said in a low voice, "What does the emperor mean?"

"The Yuan family has no children except Yuan Jing."

Liu Xiao was secretly startled, the emperor's abacus was clever.If Yuan actually married a princess and became a consort, she would be considered a member of the royal family. This would not only stop the fact that the Yuan family would become too powerful and endanger the throne of the country, but also allow the Yuan family to help stabilize it out of benevolence, loyalty, and filial piety. The country of their Long family.

Furthermore, the emperor really appreciated Yuan Jing.The matter of bestowing a marriage to Princess Xuhua that was proposed earlier on the queen's birthday was finally ignored, and in his opinion, it was quite appropriate.

"The emperor wants to give the original Siye a marriage? But is it out of date and the rules at this time?"

"What's the hurry, this matter can be discussed in nine months. Right now, I don't know whether it should be a fall or a vain..." The emperor thought seriously.

Suddenly, the gate supervisor came to report: "Report to the emperor, Huke has something to ask for an interview."

"Biography." The emperor put on a serious face, and there was a majestic aura around him.

Hu Ke presented an impeachment document to Feng Ying's hometown of more than [-] mu of land to the empress. The emperor laughed angrily after reading it: "This Feng Ying is just a mere prince and a teacher, but he has so many fields. land?!"

"According to the Linjin government's investigation, the Feng family has a total of 12 mu of land, [-] mu of which are listed under the clan's name, and [-] mu of their own. And Feng Ying also indulged his clan's children in Yurou Township. Everyone in Linjin Prefecture I only know the Feng family but not the imperial court." Hu Ke said in the middle of the matter.

"Bastard!" The emperor's expression was very bad.

The matter continued: "Your Majesty, someone wanted to impeach Feng Ying before, but the paper was intercepted by Jiang Shangshu, and then the matter was over."

"Is there such a thing?!" The emperor looked at Liu Xiao, and Liu Xiao couldn't explain it clearly, so he hurriedly said, "At that time, the emperor's dragon body was not in good condition, and the government affairs of the court and China were handled by a few senior scholars."

"Yuan Ye knows too?"

"This..." Liu Xiao didn't dare to say more.

"I let him be the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and a scholar, because I hope he can share my worries. Is he doing this to share my worries?" The emperor complained, but Liu Xiao still didn't dare to say more.He knew that although the emperor complained, he also understood that Ye Zhongyuan, a bachelor, was the youngest and had the lowest qualifications, so he couldn't speak much among them.Moreover, Jiang Guang is from the prince's side, and the other scholars have not said anything, so why should Yuan Ye fight against the prince? !

Putting that back, the emperor said with a sneer: "The prince only listens to him now, and even my officials are rushing to curry favor with him. He really has great skills!" Suddenly, he thought of something and asked Liu Xiaodao , "Is Luo Hanlin still able to eat?"

"Earlier, Mrs. Luo's [-]th birthday, this old slave heard from the little ones who came back with congratulatory gifts that he looked very good."

The emperor stroked his beard, leaned back on the chair, and his thoughts drifted back to decades ago: "When I was a child, he was already a famous talent. Shaoli, but he has been in office for so many years, and he has never asked me for anything."

Liu Xiao said with a smile: "I heard that Old Luo Hanlin was in the mansion every day, either arresting people to play chess with him, or studying the scriptures, he lived a very comfortable life."

"He has such a temperament." After the emperor finished speaking, he changed the subject, "Heh, he is not like that old man Feng Ying, and he doesn't want to learn from Luo Hanlin."

Liu Xiao knew that this was the emperor's thoughts when he mentioned Luo Lao Hanlin. The courtiers who had been appointed as officials wanted to serve the country, and they would always contribute where they were needed.This is also a habit that has been established in the past dynasties.But Feng Ying committed a taboo, making the emperor think that he still wanted to hold on to the power after he retired, making the emperor feel that his imperial power had been touched by others.

"Zhao Yuanye," said the emperor.

It was the first time for Yuan Ye to formally visit the gate of Luo Lao Hanlin's mansion. Today he brought the emperor's will, hoping that Luo Lao Hanlin would become an official and continue to serve the court.

Luo Lao Hanlin declined with a smile, "I'm old, I really can't take on important responsibilities anymore, I also ask the original Shangshu to plead guilty to the emperor on my behalf."

"Old Luo, do you really not understand what the emperor means? If you become an official, you will be the prince and grand teacher."

Although Luo Hanlin refused, he still had a private chat with Yuan Ye because of Yuan Jing's relationship: "I understand what the emperor means, but I am old and don't have much energy to deal with the affairs of the court. Now the old man My greatest wish is for my two grandchildren to get married as soon as possible, and maybe in my lifetime, I can have a great-grandson in my arms.”

Yuan Ye could only deal with him a few words: "Then Luo Siye has a girl in mind?"

Old Luo Hanlin sighed, the former Luo Qilang had an unmarried wife who was well-matched, but died of illness not long before getting married.Later they told him about another marriage, but as soon as they wanted Najib, the family's house was ransacked because of the crime, and the girl was also confiscated into slavery.

More than two years ago, Luo Qijiao fell into the water and almost drowned, so some people said that Luo Qilang's fate was hard, that he killed his parents and all the women around him.Although these are all nonsense, Luo Qilang has never mentioned the matter of getting married since then.Old Luo Hanlin and Mrs. Luo were anxious, but Luo Qilang always seemed not in a hurry, so they could only resign themselves to fate.

Yuan Ye thought to himself: You tell me this, and I don't have a daughter to marry him.

Luo Lao Hanlin suddenly changed the subject, and said, "I heard that Yuan Erlang is not in good health?"

Yuan Ye remembered Yuan actually pretending to be sick, and his expression became more complicated: "Well, I got some cold."

"Then you have to take care of it carefully. The granddaughter of the old man also took care of her for a long time. Although she lost a lot of weight, her body is completely recovered..."

When he heard this, Yuan Ye suddenly understood the significance of Luo Lao Hanlin's words to him, and the way he looked at Luo Lao Hanlin changed immediately.When he met Luo Hanlin's eyes, he seemed to see a pair of eyes with wisdom hidden in the old man's face.

"Old fox." Yuan Ye murmured secretly.
