Fairy Road Return [comprehensive]

A farewell to Chunfenglou, Mrs. Yao and others need time to calm down, but Yunyao is fine, she is still secretly observing Duke Wei's mansion and General Gao's mansion.

These two, Duke of Wei's Mansion and Duke of Qi's Mansion are hostile forces. Duke of Qi's Mansion has the second prince, the nephew of the prince, and Duke of Wei's mansion does not want the second prince to be liquidated after he ascends the throne, so he desperately pulls the Duke of Qi and the second prince together in the courtroom. Back then, Duke Wei’s mansion did not have a daughter of the right age, so Duke Wei’s mansion had not taken refuge in any prince, but he was very kind to all princes except the second prince, and now the situation is getting more and more serious , Wei Guogong is also considering the issue of standing in line.

Back in the mansion, Duke Wei frowned deeply. After entering the study, he discussed with the two staff members. Seeing that the second prince was getting more and more attention from Emperor Jiayuan, they had no choice but to make a next step.

Thinking of the five princes, Duke Wei sighed. Although the first prince is not as charismatic as the second prince, he is a prince anyway, and he is not much worse than the second prince. Back then, there were no girls of the right age in Duke Wei's mansion, otherwise he would not be like this now. Difficulty, if the eldest prince is his son-in-law or niece-in-law, he will go all out to support the eldest prince behind his back.

Now his pro-daughter is only ten years old, so young, the only match for her is the fifth prince, but unfortunately the fifth prince lost his chance, the first prince, the second prince, and the third prince have already formed a relationship.

After the staff left, the Duke of Wei was still thinking deeply, thinking about it, is it possible that he really wants to see the second prince rise to the throne, and then the Duke of Wei's mansion will be disgusted?

The door was knocked, and a voice rang out, "Father, can the child come in?"

"Come in!" No matter how difficult it is, Duke Wei will not show a trace of cowardice in front of his children. When necessary, he will arrange the retreat of Duke Wei's mansion so that the Lu family will not have their children cut off.

The person who came in was the eldest son of the Duke of Wei, and brought a cold wind. Lu Mingrui looked exactly like the Duke of Wei, but he was young and had no beard. His long beard covered his handsome face when he was young, and his more attractive face when he was older.

"Father, our people have discovered a force from outside recently. They are monitoring the Duke of Qi's mansion, and they are still inquiring about the affairs of the Duke of Qi's mansion, regardless of men or women inside or outside." Lu Mingrui frowned, because they didn't have enough time, they only knew that the outsider lived In a place where merchants live together, the main family name is Wen, and the origin is unclear.

It is said that the person who knows oneself best is an enemy or opponent. Duke Qi's mansion has not discovered Yunyao's actions yet, but Duke Wei's mansion discovered it first.

Duke Wei was really interested and said, "Do you know what's going on?"

Lu Mingrui shook his head, but said: "Today our people discovered that the person in charge of the Wen family met Yao Shangshu's wife, Mrs. Ji Liu of Lu'an Houfu, and Mrs. Jiang of Dongxinbofu. According to the speculation of the people below, these three When Madam left, her eyes seemed to have been crying. The person in charge of the Wen family is a woman with a child, and there are no more than a dozen people in the Wen family."

The father and son couldn't figure out who was trying to do what the Duke of Qi's mansion wanted to do, so they had to order the people below to investigate, trying to find out what the outside force was trying to do.

Now Yunyao is basically sure that the Duke of Wei and the Duke of Qi are indeed political enemies, and it is impossible to become allies. It is probably because more than ten years ago, there was a fight between the two children of the Duke of Qi and the Duke of Wei. Although the two children did not die, However, Second Lord Yang of Duke Qi’s mansion was disabled in his left hand, and Lord Lu Wu of Duke Wei’s mansion lost his chance to be a father. The two families approached Emperor Jiayuan for an argument. After a while, the matter was settled, and then the two families became enemies.

As for General Gao Guangxi Gao's mansion, General Gao Guangxi himself is not in the capital, he is a first-rank general stationed in the frontier, even if he is over 60 years old, he has not returned to Beijing to live up to his old age, and is still defending the frontier, is the Great Wei A mythical figure of the dynasty.

Five years ago, there was a war between the Great Wei and the Northern Man. General Gao Guangxi was over 50 years old at the time, and fought bravely on the front line, but someone in the rear put resistance on them. The imperial court allocated batch after batch of food and grass. Before the last and most critical battle, the grain and grass were delayed on the road. The army that would deliver the grain and grass happened to encounter heavy rain. The grain and grass that could arrive in ten days took five more days before it was delivered to the army. During these five days, Wei suffered heavy losses. Gao Guangxi had five sons in total. Except for the youngest fifth son in the capital, the first four The sons are all in the army, the food and grass are delayed, and the northern barbarians are staring at them. They have been clamoring at the gate of the city for a few days, and they attacked the city. The attack was eager and arrogant. The soldiers fought with the enemy hungry. Lost his eldest son and fourth son, the fourth son is his most promising successor with the most military talent.

Yunyao learned from the head of the family that the landslide was man-made. As for whether it was ordered by the Duke of Qi, the head of the family is not very sure, because the person who did it was from another village. It came out, and I didn't say much afterwards, it was just a sentence.

Now Yunyao is hesitant, do you want to see Mrs. Gao and Mrs. Gao Si?Because Mrs. Gao is related to the Yang family of the Duke of Qi’s mansion, and Mrs. Gao’s Luo Shi is considered to be the cousin of the Duke of Qi. She and the deceased old Duke of Qi are considered cousins, although the relationship is far away, more than three generations, not more than five generations. Bar.

So the Duke of Qi's mansion not only cheated his opponents, but also cheated his teammates. The teammates who were cheated by him never found out, and they still regarded him as a good teammate!

Three days later, someone asked a beggar on the street to deliver a letter, and Yun Yao was a little ridiculous holding the letter, because she had contacted Mrs. Yao in this way before, and now someone is using this method to find her?

After opening the letter, Yun Yao's face darkened. They were careful enough, but they were still detected, so if she made a bigger move, she would definitely be detected by the Duke of Qi.

"Uncle Wang, we seem to be known by others."

Wang Quan took the letter paper and looked at it. There were only two lines of characters on the letter paper, one line was 'Mingyuelou Dongxiang', and the signed word was 'Lu'.

"Miss, who could this be?" Thinking of being found out, Wang Quan felt chills in his heart, they were afraid of being found out by Duke Qi, otherwise how would the Wen family's revenge be avenged?

Yun Yao rolled her eyes, pursed her lips and said, "I'll go meet him for a while, if I'm not wrong, it should be Duke Wei's Mansion."

Sure enough, it is "the person who always pays attention to himself is an opponent", but the enemy of the enemy is a friend. She originally wanted to use a quiet method to attract the Duke of Wei's attention to the secret deeds of the Duke of Qi. Now they automatically send Come to the door, then don't blame her for being rude.

There is no time written on the letter paper, so it must be the present moment.

Mingyue Building, like Chunfeng Building, is one of the best teahouses in the capital, and is more popular with literati and refined scholars. Lu Mingrui only set off from the Duke of Wei's mansion after the letter was delivered.

Lu Mingrui only knew about Yunyao's identity and origin, and didn't know about Miss Yang San and Mrs. Pei's framing. He only knew that this girl from the Wen family must have malicious intentions towards Duke Qi's mansion. Is it really an affair with a servant?

After Yunyao arrived at Mingyue Tower, she only said that there was an appointment in the Dongxiang, but the shopkeeper actually took her outside the box on the third floor. Yunyao guessed that the boss behind the Mingyuelou must have a close relationship with the people in the box.

Wang Quan kept silent and acted as Yun Yao's follower.

After entering the box, Yun Yao was not surprised to see the heir of Duke Wei's mansion.

Going straight to the point, Yun Yao didn't intend to play tricks with Lu Mingrui, and said directly: "What is the son of the Duke of Wei looking for the women to know?"

Lu Mingrui looked Yunyao up and down, smiled, raised his hand to signal Yunyao to sit down, and poured tea himself, "Madam, please sit down." This person has a beautiful appearance and an unforgettable temperament. To do such a despicable thing, it seems that the marriage between Miss Yang San and that Pei Jieyuan is tricky.

"I know a thing or two about Madam's origins, but I don't know what Madam wants to do in Duke Qi's Mansion? Maybe this son can help me a little."

Yun Yao pursed her lips and smiled, thinking secretly in her heart, but said on the face: "Then what does the prince want?"

"The Duke of Qi's mansion is in trouble, and this son is happy." Lu Mingrui did not hide the malice of the Duke of Qi's mansion. Up to now, his fifth uncle is all alone, and has almost become a monk. He lives in Taoist temples for a long time, studies scriptures and Buddhism, If it wasn't for his Fifth Uncle's hostility and great hatred for Duke Qi's mansion, he might have already become a monk.

Yun Yao lowered her head and turned the teacup in her hand. The fragrance was wafting. The tea was really good. She took a sip of the tea and said, "Then how difficult is the Duke of Qi's mansion, Lu Shizi will be satisfied? Confiscating the family? The woman is charged in the Jiaofang Division? Maybe it can also implicate Qi Guogong's prince and nephew, so that he will be removed from the heir to the throne?"

Every time he uttered a word, Lu Mingrui's heart trembled. They want to completely smash the Duke of Qi's mansion into the dust. Their Duke of Wei's mansion is just thinking about it, and with the living sign of the second prince, as long as the Duke of Qi's mansion does not rebel Little things can't shake its foundation at all.

The veins in Lu Mingrui's hand holding the teacup were exposed, and he thought a lot in a flash. After thinking deeply, he asked, "Mrs. Wen has such a great ability that she can kill the Duke of Qi, but can't she turn over?"

"Yes, it depends on whether Lu Shizi has sincere cooperation. Without Lu Shizi, I can achieve my goal, but I have taken a lot of risks. It must be safer to have Lu Shizi participate." Yun Yao smiled lightly.

Lu Mingrui blurted out: "Have you got hold of something important about the Yang family?"

Yun Yao smiled without saying a word, and raised her eyebrows: "Does Lu Shizi want to join? As an ally, I will let you know."

After saying this, Yun Yao stood up and said: "If Lu Shizi wants to join, please come to the Wen family in the evening, and you will know everything you want to know, and the woman will introduce three other allies to you. Of course, if Lu Shizi It would be better to call Duke Wei."

Today is the day when Yunyao meets Mrs. Yao, Mrs. Ji Liu, and Mrs. Jiang. The meeting place is at Wen's house. Anyway, the places where Wen's house is located are only some foreign merchants and local small traders, and Yunyao has good ears and eyes, no doubt It's a bit safer than outside.

Yunyao and Wang Quan opened the door and left, leaving Lu Mingrui in a tangle. He was very interested in the handle that Yunyao held that could completely bring down the Duke of Qi's mansion. He was being led away by her during the conversation, Lu Mingrui's expression was a little unsightly, he never thought that one day he would be no match for a merchant woman, and that person was ten years younger than him.

When Lu Mingrui went back to talk to his father Wei Guogong, he was scolded by Wei Guogong. Wei Guogong felt that his son needed to exercise, so he was led away by a woman, and was frightened by the woman.

However, Duke Wei is also very interested in what Yunyao has about Duke Qi’s mansion. Sometimes Duke Wei can put on airs, but sometimes he is eclectic. People's evaluations are different. Some people think he is a rascal, some people think he is a warm-hearted person, and some people think he is worthy of being the Duke of the country. His aura is so majestic that people dare not look directly at him.

Chinese New Year is coming soon. Looking at the weather, there is heavy snowfall. Thinking about the New Year, it will be a cold year. I heard that during the Chinese New Year in the south, half of them will have a warm year and half will be a cold year. People in the capital have never Feel what it is like to spend a warm year, if there is no heavy snow, the weather for the New Year will be considered good.

Wei Guogong and Lu Mingrui rode together in a carriage with a green roof and a white horse. The driver was also an uncommon person. He sometimes walked the busy streets and sometimes walked the remote and quiet streets. It took less than half an hour for the carriage to arrive at the location in the northwest. Regional writers.

Wang Quan personally waited at the gate, and when he heard the sound of the horse, he immediately ran out to greet the guests. The people in the carriage did not need to get out of the carriage, and the carriage drove directly into Wen's house. The three of Mrs. Yao also came to Wen's house in the same way.

Seeing Duke Wei, Wang Quan was a little surprised. He didn't expect Duke Wei to actually come in person. Duke Wei raised his face with an inscrutable look on his face.

The three of Mrs. Yao were surprised to see Duke Wei, and then suddenly remembered that Duke Wei's mansion and Duke Qi's mansion have always been hostile.

Duke Wei felt weird when he saw Mrs. Yao and the three of them. When his son reported it earlier, he ignored the strangeness. Since the daughter of the Wen family wanted to deal with Duke Qi's mansion, why did she seek Mrs. Yao and the three of them?What do the three of them have in common?

There is no need for Wei Guogong to think too deeply about this point. After Yunyao told what she knew, Wei Guogong naturally understood. He didn't have any feelings about what happened to Mrs. Yao and the three of them. What he hated was Qi Guogong's mansion Dare to take action in the matter of escorting food and grass, this is a sinner who has endangered the great Wei through the ages!

"It's unreasonable, Yang Hongmo, he is really insane. If he really colluded with Beiman, he can't be spared!" Wei Guogong slapped the table fiercely, his face was full of anger.

Yun Yao also had this idea, but she didn't say so because she didn't get conclusive evidence.

"Master Guo, what's your opinion? Whether Duke Qi is in collusion with Beiman, as long as he catches his thugs and bandits, you will know."

The next few people expressed their opinions. Wei Guogong is an important minister of the court. He does not see his heart for the Great Wei or the emperor of the Great Wei. Han, what he hates most is that he colluded with the Northern Man. You must know that in the wars with the Northern Man over the years, countless soldiers of the Wei Dynasty died.

"Now is the Chinese New Year season. In this way, Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Ji Liu, you should contact your brothers and nephews who can mobilize the army to capture the bandits, and let them take advantage of the cold weather, and those bandits will hide in the stockade. At the same time, I will write a letter to General Gao Guangxi, asking him to send someone to capture the bandits in the two cottages in the north, and the rest There is another one, I will arrange cronies to catch them. It is not so convenient to pass the news now. After the Duke of Qi finds out, it will be too late. When you are in Beijing, you must be careful, because Qi Guogong is definitely not just this kind of person, he will definitely send people to kill the head of each village. And don't worry about General Gao and Mrs. Gao, who are cousins ​​compared to their sons Or the relationship between cousins ​​and nephews is not enough to worry about."

Duke Wei pondered for a moment, and then said: "Madam Wen's complaint is feasible, but the Holy Majesty will not be happy, because knocking on the drum means that there is a mistake in the Wei Xing prison, which extends to the emperor's lack of virtue. Even if we achieve what we want, Mrs. Wen will be disliked or even disgusted by the Holy Majesty, and these officials in the court will inevitably do some bad things."

It seems that in the middle of each dynasty, the emperors are extremely concerned about face, thinking that the world under their rule is really peaceful, Haiyan and Heqing.

Yun Yao shook her head: "It's okay, when this matter is over, I will still go back to Huadan County. I don't care whether the Holy One likes it or not. Besides, I have a good reason to beat Deng Wengu, because Qi Guogong is the left servant of the Ministry of Punishments. I’m going to be an official soon, the Ministry of Punishment is almost the official office of Qi Guogong, and the minister of Dali Temple and the left and right censors are all related to Qi Guogong, how dare I go to these three divisions to complain? Isn’t this a self-inflicted trap?”

Mrs. Yao and the others were thinking about the relationship between the bosses of the third department, and even Wei Guogong looked at Yunyao suspiciously, let alone Lu Shizi.

"The relationship is deep. The Minister of the Ministry of Justice has a favorite concubine and a concubine who is dear to the Minister of Dali Temple are sisters. This is a relationship that I finally found out. The Minister of the Ministry of Justice and the Minister of Dali Temple will meet there every ten days. The concubine's natal family met, and Zuo Du Yushi, Zuo Du Yushi was the cousin-in-law of the Minister of Justice, and Youdu Yushi's daughter-in-law was the cousin of the Minister of Criminal Justice's daughter-in-law's natal sister-in-law. Although the relationship is a bit far away, it does not mean that there is no Moreover, I also discovered that Youdu Yushi often meets Young Master Yang in Mianhualou."

When the world looks at kinship, who would count the concubine's natal family?

Mianhualou is a golden cave somewhere in the capital, it is a brothel in disguise, but it is more elegant than the brothels in the red light district, and of course it costs more.

Duke Wei's face is already very ugly. In an equivalent institution like the Third Division, the imperial court will not appoint officials with close relationships, and the censors on the left and right must be hostile to each other, so that they can restrain and monitor each other. Thinking that without them knowing, Yang Hongmo has already controlled the entire Xing Prison of Da Wei, this is a very dangerous thing!

After this meeting, everyone acted on their own, and Yun Yao was the most leisurely one. She only needed to beat Dengwen Drum after Duke Wei and Mrs. Jiang were ready.

There are only a few days until the Chinese New Year, and both inside and outside the government are stepping up to do the final work. Just two days after Emperor Jiayuan announced the sealing of the seal, the capital was enveloped by a news that the Duke of Wei's mansion Lu Wuye and Qi Guogong The second master Yang met on a narrow road, and the fifth master Lu beat the second master Yang seriously. The fourth son Lu who was with the fifth master at that time also beat the second master Yang who was with the second master Yang into a pig's head by surprise. Suddenly, it brought back memories of more than ten years ago.

Emperor Jiayuan was so annoyed, the end of the year was the busiest time, and the weather was cold, Duke of Wei and Duke of Qi's mansions continued to cause trouble for him.However, the grievances between the two governments have been going on for a long time. Compared with the second master Yang who just lost his left hand, the fifth master Lu's loss of the chance to pass on his heirs can arouse the sympathy of the world. After all, that place is damaged. For men, this is speechless The pain, as well as the dignity, Emperor Jiayuan also sympathized with Lu Wuye.But the concubine Chong and his son were crying in their ears, and Emperor Jiayuan couldn't see Erye Yang, who was barely his brother-in-law, suffering in vain, so it was hard for him too!

The author has something to say: Good weekend (^o^)/~
