Chapter 408 The Demon

The emperor summoned ministers from morning till night, from prime ministers Di Renjie and Cui Xiu to picking up relics Qiu Qi, Chen Ziang and others. In one day, at least three to 20 people were seen. Wan'er specially sent someone after Chen Ziang went out After asking, the courtier Fang, who was sure that he would never see him again, approached the main hall carefully, and leaned forward when he reached the door. The emperor saw him inside, and called "Awan" quite tiredly. Wan'er bowed in and saw the emperor. With an unconcealable tired look on his face, he walked behind her silently, and just put his hand on her shoulder, but the emperor stretched out his hand to hold her hand and said, "Walk with me."

Wan'er responded softly, helped the emperor up—it took a lot of effort because she had been sitting for a long time—followed her into the curved corridor, and walked quietly for a while.The chrysanthemums are in full bloom. I don’t know what species are planted here in the Zhenguan Temple. The petals are all golden scrolls. The flowers are large and densely planted. At first glance, only gold and green are seen.

The emperor stopped halfway and looked at the chrysanthemum for a while, Wan'er thought she was thinking about some important military affairs, and stood with her for a long time, holding her breath, but she laughed and said: "This flower is too rich and not worthy of you. "

Wan'er couldn't help laughing: "When people call chrysanthemums, they don't mean that this flower kills the cold, or that they are indifferent and secluded. For example, Tao Yuanming said, "Pick chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, and see Nanshan leisurely", and said, "Three paths are barren, The pine and chrysanthemum are still alive', it is the first time I have heard that this flower is rich and noble."

The emperor looked at her sideways and smiled: "That's because you don't understand—"The Song of the Autumn Wind" written by Han Wu said: "Orchids are beautiful and chrysanthemums are fragrant. Since this flower is in the eyes of the emperor, isn't it rich?"

Wan'er was stunned, and smiled softly: "If this is the comparison, then this flower is suitable for my concubine, why not?"

The emperor smiled but did not answer, took Wan'er away for a while, and asked her suddenly: "There are rumors about Qi Lianyao's rebellion, have you ever heard of it?"

Wan'er said: "Ah Qing heard it when she reported back in the morning."

The emperor smiled and said, "I forgot you were here in the morning—what do you think?"

Wan'er said: "A major case of treason is no small matter. Let reliable people push it in detail."

The emperor shook his head: "It's not that, it's a rumor."

Wan'er glanced at the emperor: "There have always been many rumors in the capital, and rebellion is a major event, so it's not surprising that people talk about it."

The emperor frowned slightly, and looked into the distance: "Yizong said he had the news and reported it directly, and he never told anyone else."

Wan'er smiled lightly and said, "Wei Wang and Liang Wang are the kings of Hejian, but they are not others."

The emperor turned to look at her: "Do you think they leaked it?"

Wan'er lowered her head and lightly smoothed the silk ribbon on her skirt: "I thought they would never reveal this matter." Looking up, she saw the emperor frowning tightly, and stretched out her hand with a faint smile, smoothing the frown between her brows: "But this matter is very important." As in general, if the person who first reported wanted to go to the gate of King Hejian, he would have to go through a lot of trouble. After receiving the report, King Hejian naturally did not dare to report it casually. Here, how many people have handled it during this period is not confidential, and it is possible for others to see the clues—otherwise, there are leaks from King Wei and King Liang, or they go out from the palace, but King Wei and King Liang are careful in handling things. There are people in the palace who are trusted by His Majesty, and the rumors are coming from the people..." The folds between the emperor's brows deepened and deepened, and seeing that it was not smooth, Wan'er turned to tidy her robe for her—sit for a day , the robe has been wrinkled, and it has not been straightened after being pulled for a long time.

The emperor frowned when Wan'er straightened her clothes, opened her sleeves, and motioned for her to straighten her sides as well, while humming softly, muttering, "You stupid fool."

Wan'er pretended not to understand, and raised her eyes to look at the emperor, who slapped her hand and said with a smile, "It's not about you."

Wan'er smiled and lowered her head, straightened the two sides, then went around to the back, and straightened the back for the emperor: "King Hejian also wanted to share his majesty's worries, so he was enthusiastic about current affairs, otherwise he was born and lived in seclusion like King Anping, or like King Anping Wouldn't it be easier for King Qiancheng to guard his private affairs and live a small life than he is now?"

The emperor sneered and said: "Is he indifferent to fame and wealth, and sticks to his duties? I still remember that there was a time when the banquet was in full swing. He suddenly got up and shouted, 'The minister urgently informs the king, and the son urgently informs the father'. What's the big deal, I hurriedly called to the front to ask, the result was that I remembered that the closure of the household was changed from the self-collection of the family to the prefecture and county, and I felt that there was a loss, so I wanted to complain to me!"

Wan'er was also present at that time, and she smiled unconsciously when she heard the words. The emperor heard her laugh, and when he looked back, he also laughed: "I thought that although he was stupid, he would always do small things well, but he didn't want to even keep secrets." I can't even do it, but I still like to inquire around..." Speaking of "inquiring", he suppressed his smile and asked Gao Yanfu: "The prison guard leaked Taiping's whereabouts last time, who will handle this matter?"

Gao Yanfu replied tremblingly: "I have ordered the prison gate guard to investigate, but there is no return in the past few days."

The emperor was quite displeased: "The reason for not going through Taiwan is to show them face, not to tell them to slack off on the king's affairs—and ask someone to remind them again. Within this month, it is necessary to find out who leaked the ban."

Gao Yanfu agreed, then walked a few steps, and ordered his servants to go out to spread the word. The emperor sighed when he saw his staggering steps, and said to Wan'er: "A Gao has been with me since he was ten years old, and now he is over fifty."

Wan'er laughed and said: "It turns out that Gao Weng is only in his fifties. We talked in private and always thought he was seven or eighty years old." Seeing that the emperor didn't understand, she explained: "When the concubine was elected to the Zichen Palace, everyone called him ' Gao Weng', when I saw his stooped appearance, I always thought he was 80 or 70 years old at that time. Recently, I thought that Gao Weng was already at such an age, and he was not slow in doing things at all. It turned out that he was only in his 30s back then— —But this is also good, at least when I was young, I was exactly the same as when I was old, so I don’t look old.”

The emperor laughed and said, "You can just laugh at him behind his back, and you won't be afraid that he will annoy you if he hears it."

Wan'er smiled and blinked: "Only Qiniang and I know this. If Qiniang didn't tell him, and I didn't tell him, how would he know?"

The emperor was stunned, then blinked and said: "Qiniang said, it's fine if you want her to keep silent, but you have to bribe her."
