Those days when Mrs. Yazhai

Ye Linjiang took a sip of hot tea, and slowly said to Zhong Mo, "They've arrived at Nanling, they're safe."

Zhong Mo heaved a sigh of relief, "I haven't heard from my brother, so I thought it was an accident."

Ye Linjiang put down his teacup and explained: "Young Master Gu sent three letters in total, all of which were to report your safety, but I stopped them all. I was afraid that Shen Qi would see the letters when they were sent to the palace."

Zhong Mo understood Ye Linjiang's approach, but he really didn't want to understand Ye Linjiang's approach.

"What is General Ye doing all this for?" Zhong Mo asked curiously.

"Actually, I don't really know what I'm doing this for." Ye Linjiang sighed lightly, and continued: "There are obviously better solutions, but I always choose the most complicated and troublesome one."

In order to seek justice for his aunt, he issued a military order and went to the battlefield to fend off the enemy and make meritorious deeds. He went around a long circle, but it seemed that his aunt's justice was not recovered.

In order for Shen Qi to leave the throne smoothly, he had to go around such a big circle again.

He is actually afraid.He was afraid that Shen Qi would not be able to get away in the end.

Zhong Mo hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Does General Ye want to untie Prime Minister Ye's knot?"

Ye Linjiang glanced at Zhong Mo in surprise, and asked back, "Why do you ask such a question?"

Prime Minister Ye's heart knot, Zhong Mo, happened to hear about it from those court ladies in the palace.At first Zhong Mo didn’t care, thinking that the women in the harem were full of food and had nothing to do to make up some ridiculous stories every day, but then Ye Chengxiang’s repeated persistence made Zhong Mo believe in the story that was circulating in the harem. story.

Prime Minister Ye followed his parents all the way from Nanling when he was young. He endured a lot of hardships, endured a lot of anger, and suffered a lot of ups and downs. Only then did he obtain fame and become an official in the court. However, after entering the court, he was squeezed out everywhere. The exclusion reached its peak when Shen Qi's mother was named queen.

After Shen Qi's mother passed away, Prime Minister Ye attributed everything to the lack of power in his hands, so he began to plan carefully.He wants Shen Qi to sit on the throne, he wants to use his own nephew as a pawn, and he wants to hold the whole Donghe firmly in his hands.

Even the women in the harem could see these things clearly, but Prime Minister Ye couldn't realize what was wrong with him.

All the grievances he has suffered in the past have made Prime Minister Ye ignore his right and wrong.

Ye Linjiang wanted to let his father know that what he suffered had nothing to do with power, and Shen Qi should not be separated from his beloved because of his obsession.

Thinking of this, Ye Linjiang said softly to Zhong Mo: "No one can solve my father's knot except himself. I just hope that what I do can be useful."

Zhong Mo shook his head, sighed, and said, "Your family is really tired."

After the snow stopped, the group set off to return to the imperial city. Shen Qi was very obedient all the way, sleeping when it was time to sleep, and eating when it was time to eat.

Ye Linjiang only thought that he had heard his own words in his heart, and secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

But before he breathed a sigh of relief, Shen Qi started to make trouble again.

Ye Linjiang's eyelids twitched as he watched Shen Qi appearing in filial piety at the court.

The following ministers were very puzzled and began to ask:

"Why does the emperor dress up like this above the court? Even if you want to wear filial piety for the former emperor, you shouldn't dress like this."

"It's too late to wear filial piety for the late emperor now."

"There haven't been any funerals in the palace recently, have they?"

"..."

Shen Xi calmly watched the discussion of the crowd below, and after the voices of the crowd faded away, he slowly opened his mouth: "I met a close friend when I was living outside the palace. A very important person, I just learned that he passed away, so I decided to bring him a filial piety to express my grief."

Even if it is a very important person, it is not appropriate to wear filial piety above the court.

So some people remonstrated: "It is really valuable for the emperor to value love and righteousness, but the emperor is the king of a country. It is not appropriate to wear filial piety for people outside the royal family. I hope the emperor will think twice."

Everyone began to echo:

"yes......"

"Think twice, Your Majesty..."

"This is really inappropriate..."

Ye Linjiang looked at the red-eyed Shen Qi who was sitting above him, and he felt a pang of guilt in his heart. After thinking about it again and again, he stood up and said, "What kind of life the emperor has lived in the palace these years, all the ministers know in their hearts. The people in the palace probably never gave the emperor any warmth, so no one in the palace could bear the emperor's act of wearing filial piety. And the friends the emperor met during the time when he was living outside the palace must have been sincerely kind to the emperor. The emperor thinks that He is a person worthy of his filial piety. If so, why can't the emperor wear it? What's wrong?"

What Ye Linjiang said was really disrespectful.But now the Ye family is unshakable by others, even if it is disrespectful, few people come out to refute it.

But there are still a few people who are not afraid of death to refute: "General Ye's words are not right, what do you mean that there is no one in the palace to warm the emperor? Where do you put the late emperor?"

Ye Linjiang smiled lightly and said, "The late emperor has passed away, so the people I'm talking about naturally don't include the late emperor."

The person who argued was still stubborn: "Even so, what General Ye said just now is really inappropriate. Those who don't know may think that General Ye is trying to provoke the relationship between the emperor and other members of the royal family."

Prime Minister Ye, who had never spoken all this time, laughed loudly, and asked the man back: "May I ask who is trying to sow discord? Is it General Ye, or you, my lord?"

The man shut up and stopped talking.

Shen Qi indifferently looked at the discussion of the people below, and he opened his mouth after everyone was quiet: "The late emperor was blessed with only five sons, but unfortunately, my three elder brothers are no longer alive, and now only My fifth brother and I. So, did that lord just want to provoke my relationship with my fifth brother?"

The man hastily knelt down and hurriedly explained: "I don't have such intentions, I hope the emperor will find out."

Shen Qi sneered and said: "You all object to my wearing filial piety for people other than the royal family, and tell me that it is inappropriate to do so. But how to do it properly, did any of you tell me? In other words, apart from telling me that it is inappropriate What else can I do besides that?"

Ye Linjiang knew that it was indeed inappropriate for Shen Qi to do so. The ministers became more afraid of him, but lost their respect.But looking at Shen Qi and Ye Linjiang, who was indeed a little different from before, he couldn't say anything to remonstrate.

Prime Minister Ye took a deep look at Shen Qi, and then said: "The emperor is a person who values ​​love and righteousness. Wearing filial piety for a close friend is also an expression of affection and righteousness. You don't have to use the previous rules to restrain the emperor."
