stop cloud out Xiu

Wei Zheng hurried into the palace early in the morning, but was told by the inner eunuch that the emperor had not risen, so he had to wait at the gate of the palace for more than an hour.During the period, many officials passed by, expressing comfort to him and ridiculing him secretly.His fists were tightened and loosened, the wind and internal fire combined, and he was forced to suppress it even if he wanted to cough, making his face swell into a liver color.

Prime Minister Xiao Qianlin walked with his hands behind his back very leisurely, stood still in front of him, and said: "The spring is cold, the morning dew is bleak, the general is sick, he should rest more, why did you come to face the saint so early?"

Wei Zheng said coldly, "Isn't Xiao Xiang also so early?"

Xiao Qianlin twirled his short beard, and said with a smile, "I don't know why, I haven't slept enough recently, and I can't stay at home, so I just came out for a walk. It just so happened that the Empress Dowager invited me to the imperial garden to enjoy the flowers. Come, why not go together?"

Wei Zheng said: "No need, this kind of arty thing, Wei is vulgar and doesn't know how to appreciate it."

Xiao Qianlin said: "Hey, why should General Wei be self-effacing, remember that you and I were sworn brothers in the past, didn't we go to the south of the Yangtze River to enjoy pear blossoms together? At that time, you and I wrote poems together, and I still remember the truth now."

Wei Zheng's face became more and more ugly: "It's hard for Xiang Xiang to remember the past love."

Xiao Qianlin said: "General Wei knows the kindness of being promoted, so I remember the truth. After all these years, the truth still wants to have a drink with the general, but it is a pity that the general does not give this face. Alas, the power of the world must be divided for a long time, and so is human relationship. In this way, the general already has people who drink and get drunk together, how can he remember his old friends? Mr. Liu’s name, Xiao has heard of it for a long time, but he only hates different ways and it is difficult to make friends. It is really a great pity in life.”

"Damn!" Wei Zheng scolded angrily, "Stop talking nonsense here, we both know who will break the promise first!"

Xiao Qianlin said: "Breach of faith, the general's words are serious. Back then Miss Xiuning had not yet entered the family, and the matter of the husband's concubine love, the truth is that he is innocent, and dare not bear these four words."

"Innocent?" Wei Zheng snorted coldly. Although he said that he never cared about it to outsiders, it would be against his will if he said he didn't mind wearing such a big green hat.

"If you hadn't deliberately teased her, how could she be so modest as a lady who doesn't go out of the door? That's all, there is no need to mention this matter." Wei Zheng stood aside, "Xiao Xiang, please."

Xiao Qianlin smiled, but refused to invite: "Just now when I came here, I heard people talking about the affairs in the palace. I thought the general was in trouble, and there was nothing wrong with the truth, so I waited for the first class with the general, and also helped the second son. Sentence."

Wei Zheng grabbed Xiao Qianlin's lapel, and said angrily, "You have the nerve to mention it! You know why Wei Hong is like this!"

Xiao Qianlin looked bewildered: "What is the general talking about? How can the second son know the truth because of his audacity to molest Concubine Huan?"

Wei Zheng's fists were creaking, and he couldn't bear it any longer. He punched him, but he was caught halfway and couldn't move.

"The palace is important, General Wei, please respect yourself." Xiao Changli calmly pressed Wei Zheng's arm.

Wei Zheng felt his arms go numb, and he couldn't exert himself any longer.

Xiao Shaoqin walked slowly, with a smile on his face: "General Wei and father are old friends, just now we are just reminiscing about old feelings, brother, you are too nervous."

Xiao Qianlin also said with a sullen face: "Changli, how can you disrespect General Wei and not make amends."

Xiao Changli bowed to apologize, Wei Zheng's face was cold and his teeth were about to be gritted.He was subdued with one blow, even though he has made great military exploits all his life, he can't help lamenting the ruthlessness of time at this time.

Xiao Shaoqin said: "General, don't be angry. It's not worth it if you get angry. I heard that the general has caught wind and cold and hasn't improved for many days. My nephew is very worried. The general is an important minister of the country, and he must not collapse. My nephew will soon I got a secondary prescription in a day, and it is the most effective for wind and cold, so I will order someone to deliver it to the house in another day."

"No need!" Wei Zheng said sternly, "Don't dare to touch the things of your Xiao family!"

Xiao Qianlin said: "Brother Wei, why bother? Forget it, don't delay the general and wait for the emperor to summon you. Let me take my leave."

The father and son greeted the servants into the palace together, Xiao Qianlin said: "Changli, you shouldn't have made a move just now, let him do it, and there will be more drama in front of the emperor."

Xiao Changli said: "The child is in a hurry."

Xiao Qianlin said: "You, if I'm half as flexible as your second brother, I'll be relieved."

Xiao Shaoqin said: "Eldest brother is also worried about father's safety. Eldest brother's martial arts should be more advanced, and he can even block Wei Zheng's blow. It's a pity that he lives in Dali Temple. If the army kills the enemy, how can there be a place for Wei Zhan?"

Xiao Qianlin glanced at the eldest son reproachfully: "What Qin'er said is true, you, alas, what can you do if you insist on entering Dali Temple?"Xiao Changli followed behind, silent.

Wei Zheng was still waiting for the summons, his body swayed from exhaustion, his mind was muddled, and he remembered the past for no reason.

That year, the pear blossoms in the south of the Yangtze River were like snow, and that person was also dressed in white, as if he was going to blend into the rain of flowers.

Brother Wei, getting to know you is the greatest blessing in my life.

When he said this, his face was slightly drunk, but thinking about it now, it was indeed just drunken talk.

Inside the Donghua Palace, Sun Xing removed the imperial food, looked at Emperor Jin's expression, and said, "Your Majesty, General Wei has been waiting for almost two hours to see you."

Emperor Jin said: "Why so early?"

Sun Xingdao: "I think it's because of Concubine Huan."

"Concubine Huan...oh, yes."

Emperor Jin has often been in a trance recently, just staring at this old piano in a daze, and forgot such a big event, Sun Xing carefully said: "Your Majesty, Wei Hong has been imprisoned in Dali Temple and is waiting to be dealt with."

Emperor Jin plucked the strings of the zither, and said calmly: "Concubine Huan has always been gentle and courteous, and Wei Hong has a certain amount of advances and retreats. I don't think she would do such a thing, but can I find out?"

Sun Xingdao: "According to Concubine Jing and several concubines, I saw it with my own eyes."

"See with your own eyes the two of them doing things together?"

"No, at that time, Concubine Huan's clothes were in disarray, and the second son of Wei was outside, and the clothes were not indecent." Sun Xing looked at Emperor Jin's expression, and said, "According to several palace people, the appearance of Concubine Huan , like being drugged."

Emperor Jin shook his head and sighed: "They, they always have to find some unhappiness for me to be happy."

Sun Xing asked, "Your Majesty, how should we deal with this matter?"

Emperor Jin said: "Concubine Huan lost her manners in front of others, and ordered her to self-examine in Wuya Palace. As for Wei Hong, there are still important matters in the palace to deal with. If you stick him for twenty and lock him up for three days, that's all."

"Your Majesty is wise."

"Do you really think it's wise?"

Sun Xing smiled apologetically: "What the emperor does is naturally wise."

Emperor Jin said: "They are just too rigid. They don't use tricks or tricks. How can they defeat the enemy? They can only be calculated and calculated. They are very stupid. Xuan Weizheng, come in."

Sun Xingdao: "Yes."

Wei Zheng came in in a hurry, and knelt on the ground to plead guilty as soon as he entered the hall.Emperor Jin ordered him to flatten his body, and said: "Wei Qing, don't be impatient. Wei Hong is not such a ignorant person. However, there are many witnesses, and I can't bear my face. I will punish you a little. Wei Qing, don't want to be angry with me. .”

Wei Zheng knelt down again to thank him, Emperor Jin ordered him to sit down, and said: "The prince knows that I love orchids, and yesterday he presented a Molan Cuiping carved in Lantian to the palace, saying that it was a gift from Wei Qing, and I borrowed flowers to present Buddha, so I didn't know the truth. Wei Qing also has this intention."

Wei Zheng's heart trembled, and he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, my humble minister..."

Emperor Jin waved his hand and said with a smile: "Wei Qing, don't be nervous. You are very close to the prince, and you should do everything according to the rules. It is good to be flexible. I heard that Wei Qing has been ill recently, so he needs to rest more. "

Wei Zheng said: "I'm fine, thank you Your Majesty for your concern."

Emperor Jin said: "Today, the Empress Dowager invited all officials to enjoy the spring in the imperial garden. Wei Qing and I should go and see it together."

Wei Zheng said in fear and fear: "I dare not go because I have committed a crime." If he went, he would be ridiculed by all the officials, especially Xiao Qianlin, he really didn't want to go.Emperor Jin didn't force it, and allowed him to leave first.

It's April in the world, and the spring atmosphere is strong in the imperial garden. The Empress Dowager held a banquet and invited the important officials of the court to enjoy the flowers.Xiao Changli didn't like to deal with this kind of situation. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he went to a withered apricot tree to hide and be quiet, but he saw that there was already a person sitting alone under the tree. , it is the fourth prince Yun Yu.

After a slight pause in his footsteps, Xiao Changli still walked over: "See Your Highness."

Yun Yu came back to her senses, glanced at him, and lazily said: "Lord Xiao, you don't need to be too polite."

Xiao Changli said: "The lower official came here on foot, and did not intend to disturb His Highness's peace, so I will take my leave."

Yun Yu said: "Master Xiao doesn't have to be like this, since he's here, he must think it's too noisy there, why don't we avoid it together."

Xiao Changli stood aside.He already knew about Concubine Huan, and he could probably guess the inside story, so it was inconvenient and difficult to say anything at this time.

When a gust of wind came, only a few residual flowers remained on the tree, which was very different from the prosperous scene over there, and it was infinitely desolate.

After a long while, Yun Yu said: "Master Xiao must have known about my mother and concubine. There are many things involved in this matter, and anyone with a discerning eye will know it at a glance, but I still don't understand it. Everyone in the world says that Master Xiao is upright and upright. I think Listen to the truth, if you can’t ask others, let’s ask you.”

Xiao Changli said solemnly, "What does Your Highness want to hear?"

Yun Yu said: "Whose path am I blocking?"

Xiao Changli was silent.Yun Yu said: "I'm not involved in government affairs, I have no power or power, it doesn't matter if I say something wrong or it doesn't please you, Mr. Xiao don't have to make trouble."

Xiao Changli said: "Since that's the case, why should your Highness be persistent?"

Yun Yu smiled wryly and said: "Actually, I don't care. I was born in the emperor's family, and there will always be times when I can't help myself. It's just that this matter is related to the reputation of my mother and concubine. If I admit it blindly, I might be charged with unfilial piety."

Xiao Changli sighed secretly, and said: "Temples and courts have always been turbulent and treacherous, and there are many calculations, among which there are thousands of knots and intricate knots. Even the lower officials have not seen it clearly, so I am afraid they cannot tell His Highness the answer."

Yun Yu smiled, got up and shook off the falling flowers and grass, and said: "Forget it, Mr. Xiao doesn't understand the officialdom, so let's solve the case with all his heart, but I just want to remind you, whether people's hearts or unsolved cases, you can't judge from the surface in many cases. Things that are obvious at a glance often have far-reaching implications behind them. Take the matter of King Xing as an example, Mr. Xiao concluded that King Xing did something harmful to the world and reason based on the words of the farmer and the bronze cup found in the palace, it seems a bit too hasty, right?"

Xiao Changli said: "We have all the witnesses and material evidence, so we can decide the case."

Yun Yu said: "Then, have you ever thought about someone deliberately framing him? The law is nothing more than human feelings. I have been with King Xing since I was a child, and I know what he is like."

"It is precisely because of the strong relationship between His Highness and King Xing that he was deceived."

Yun Yu's eyes froze: "Then this time, do you also think that Concubine Huan will take the medicine by herself and make peace with Wei Hong?"

"This matter, the lower officials dare not speak nonsense."
