[Qing Chuan] Mu Emperor's Grace

Qian Feng followed Hai Lancha, leaving Heshen's house with awe-inspiring righteousness, but the closer he got to the emperor's other garden, Qian Feng felt his calves were shaking.

After finally getting to the gate of the hall, Hai Lancha gave Qian Feng a self-contained look, led him into the hall, and reported to the gloomy Hongli: "Your Majesty, Qian Feng has brought..."

Hongli waved away the crowd, leaving only Qian Feng who was kneeling on the ground, but he just stared at him heavily, making Qian Feng's brow sweat.

"Golden Pavilion, Silver Pavilion and Jade Bridge, I can't miss the beautiful scenery of Shu." Hongli stared at the manuscript, and slowly read the words on it.After a while, I couldn't help sneering: "Look at the good poems you wrote. They are plain and vulgar, and the sentences are incomprehensible. It seems that you are really afraid that others will not understand, and forced you, a great talent who was born as a Jinshi, to such a point."

Qian Feng wiped the sweat from his brow, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty... I am wronged..."

However, Hongli didn't seem to have heard his words, and said coldly: "Don't think that I don't know what you think in your heart, since the matter of Zhou Yuanli, you have been dissatisfied with Zhen Dongxun, and now you are finally telling the truth gone."

Qian Feng has a criminal record in Zhou Yuanli, and now he is suddenly brought up by Hongli, which just confirms the words in the document, and it is simply beyond debate.He could only kowtow over and over again: "Your Majesty... the salary of a humble minister who eats the emperor, the matter of loyalty to the emperor, I dare not have such thoughts in my life, I ask the emperor to learn from me."

Hongli heard the words, but his face did not ease in the slightest: "Except for you, I really can't think of anyone in the civil and military society of the Manchu Dynasty who would criticize my east tour like this. If you keep calling for injustice, then tell me, who wrote this article?" Zhe, and painstakingly signed your name?"

Qian Feng stared blankly at the document that was thrown on the ground by Hongli, feeling bitter in his heart.There are countless people who want him to shut up, but who can he correct this undocumented right now?

Hongli saw that he had a bitter face and did not speak, and his tone suddenly became sharp: "Say it, why don't you say it?"

Qian Feng tried his best to suppress the trembling of his body, and closed his eyes in despair.Seeing his appearance, Hongli became even more angry, and shouted loudly: "Hai Lancha, take Qian Feng down and put him in prison pending trial."

Hailan looked at Qian Feng who was struggling to hold his neck, and said hesitantly, "Your Majesty..."

Hongli obviously didn't want to say more, he waved his hand and said: "Press it, otherwise I will deal with you together..."

Hai Lancha had no choice but to escort Qian Feng out of the palace gate, and said in a low voice: "Master Qian, I offended you..."

Qian Feng was completely trapped in a state of self-abandonment. He was usually a stubborn donkey, but at this moment he didn't struggle at all. He closed his eyes and let Hai Lancha drag him away.

Seeing his appearance, Hai Lan rolled her eyes, and forced Qian Feng to change course, passing He Shen's residence along the way.Standing in the courtyard, He Shen saw Qian Feng being detained from a long distance away, and saw Hai Lancha winking at him, and instantly understood: Qian Feng must have messed up the matter, and now he has put himself in it.

Although He Shen felt that Qian Feng was really out of tune with this worldly officialdom, he always admired his character.If this matter had been left on a normal day, He Shen would have interceded for Qian Feng in front of Hongli if he wasn't sure, but now He Shen hid whenever he could and would not provoke Hongli easily.

Hongli is very depressed these days. He also asked Hai Lancha insincerely, and the response he got was that He Shen's body has recovered.But on weekdays, the most diligent person who met with the emperor seemed to be slack suddenly, and he didn't see anyone for several days.

The person whom he could see all the time in the past suddenly disappeared for several days, and Hongli always felt that something was missing.Sometimes when I pick up the teacup at hand, I drink cold tea.He wanted to call He Shen, but suddenly remembered that that person was not by his side.

Hongli had no choice but to make do with calling Hailancha.Helplessly, Hai Lancha is a rough man, he is good at marching and fighting, so it is really difficult for him to make a cup of good tea.Hongli resisted and gave it a try, but he never wanted to take a second bite.

Things like this abound: when you pick up a pen when you are practicing calligraphy, you find that there is no familiar person beside you, and you lower your head and concentrate on studying the ink; when encountering ambiguous memorials, Hongli blurts out the name of He Shen, and waits for a long time. It should be, just realized that He Shen is not in front of him.

Hongli fell into an unprecedented state of anxiety, and Hailancha, who was on duty in front of the imperial court, and Ji Yun, who was serving as a student, both had this realization by coincidence.

Hongli began to run towards the school field, shooting with a bow and arrow.However, the emperor, who was almost perfect in the past, has missed several times in succession.The officials waiting on the side all bowed their heads and kept silent, fearing that Hongli would take them down if he got upset.However, the seemingly irritable emperor suddenly stared at the bow in his hand.From the point of view of the guards, it was nothing more than an ordinary royal bow, and it even looked old.But Hongli's eyes were extremely focused, as if he was holding a rare treasure in his hands.

When Ji Yun was lecturing the scriptures and history for Hongli, he also clearly felt that the emperor was absent-minded: the emperor would often stare blankly at a corner of the page, and Ji Yun couldn't get a response even after calling several times.

That day Ji Xiaolan withdrew from the hall, turned around and looked at the closed window next to the throne, sighed and shook her head, just as she was about to leave, she was stopped by a person.

Ji Xiaolan looked up in surprise, and saw Hai Lancha looking at him with a worried face: "Master Ji, can I take a step to speak?"

Ji Xiaolan hugged the book and followed him to the corner outside the hall.After holding back the words for a long time, he finally found an outlet. The sturdy man said with a bitter face, "Master Ji, tell me, what happened to the emperor? I've been out of my mind for a while, and I was terrified when I saw the aim of the arrow. The emperor ordered the guards to compete, and we tried our best to fight to the death. When I looked up, I found that the emperor didn't know where to look, and even the result of the competition was just announced hastily."

Ji Xiaolan looked helplessly at Hai Lancha, who was full of bitterness, and sighed: "Master Hai, you can be content, the emperor is just out of his mind in front of you. I am a frightened person who reads in front of the imperial court every day. A few days ago When I talked about a collection of poems, there was a sentence in it: "Ji Zhenhe of the Ming Dynasty went to Qingdu in one fell swoop." After hearing this, the emperor was furious, and threw the collection of poems into the charcoal basin in front of me. It was so cloudy that it almost scared my heart out."

Hai Lancha scratched her head in confusion, and said with a puzzled smile: "Master Ji, you know I'm a rough person. I don't understand those verses at all. Is there anything wrong with this verse?"

Ji Xiaolan frowned and looked at Hai Lancha, feeling powerless towards Niu playing the piano: "There is nothing wrong with this poem. Ming Dynasty refers to tomorrow, and it is about the poet's hope that he can make great achievements, get a title on the gold list, and come to the bustling city. The capital became an official. But the emperor said that this Ming Dynasty refers to the previous generation, and removing characters means removing them, and this poem contains the ambition to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty."

Hai Lancha heard the first half of the sentence in a daze, half understanding, but he completely understood the last sentence, and immediately changed his face: "Master Ji, this... this is a serious crime of beheading... "

Ji Xiaolan smiled bitterly and said, "Who says it's not? That poem was written by a Juren in Jiangsu during the reign of the Grandfather, who had passed away a few years ago. The emperor intended to capture the descendants of the Juren, or I had to say something good, so I reluctantly stopped it." Come down. But the back of my neck is chilly every day, and I always feel that if I don't pay attention and offend that master, I will end up with a neck split."

Hearing the words, Hai Lancha asked urgently: "Didn't you be fine a few days ago, why did you become like this after being ill?"

A meaningful smile appeared on the corners of Ji Xiaolan's lips: "Master Hai, you shouldn't ask me this question." Seeing Hai Lancha's confused expression, he pouted in a certain direction again: "You should ask me about the past days. The guy over here."

Hailancha didn't react for a while, and blurted out: "What do you mean...you mean...He Shen?" Hailancha looked in the direction of Ji Xiaolan's pouting mouth again, and went down in that direction. Shen's residence.

"Speaking of which, it's true that I haven't seen him for a long time. In the past, when he came to visit the emperor, he could always see him face to face. Although his attitude was not salty, but now he couldn't even meet him. Didn't it mean that he was sick. "

Ji Xiaolan sneered: "Sick? This precious medicinal material is being sent to his room continuously. What intractable disease can't be cured after so long? If it is really impossible to cure, there is only one disease."

Hai Lancha wondered, "What disease?"

Ji Xiaolan faintly uttered two words: "Heart disease." Seeing that Hai Lancha didn't understand, Ji Xiaolan felt a sense of anxiety that it was hard to find a friend: "The emperor and He Shen, who came down from Mount Tai, not only fell ill, but also lost their lives. Meet. The emperor did not summon He Shen, nor did He Shen ask to see the emperor. As for what happened on Mount Tai, we cannot know."

Hai Lancha was half confused and half surprised: "So, the emperor's anomaly these days is because of the cold war with He Shen?"

Ji Xiaolan's heart trembled, and sometimes she really had to admire the courage of honest people.He talked about it in a roundabout way for a long time, but it was still explained by Hai Lancha.

Seeing his dull face, Ji Xiaolan couldn't hide things in her heart for some reason.Ji Xiaolan curled her lips: "Otherwise, why do you think that the emperor asked you to take Qian Feng in such a hurry? With the emperor's intelligence, even you can see tricky things. Could it be that the emperor can't see it? The emperor ordered you to take Qian Feng." , put him in prison but didn't question the crime for a long time, just to force Heshen to intercede with him first. But this time, Heshen was also very stubborn and never asked to see the emperor. Doesn't this make our emperor anxious? It only suffers from those of us who work in front of us, and Mr. Qian who stays in prison."

Hai Lancha was dumbfounded by Ji Xiaolan's remarks.He never imagined that there were so many mysteries hidden behind this case.The man who has always been outspoken feels inexplicably uncomfortable in his heart. He always feels that he has become the object of confrontation between Hongli and Heshen, and he is still foolishly kept in the dark, worrying about the two of them.
