Qu clear as promised

Sure enough, being with a king is like being with a tiger, he doesn't know where he has offended this person again.

The four eyes met, and there was an inexplicable confrontation for a moment, Zhu Zhiyi pleaded guilty: "My humble minister is dull, please make it clear to the emperor."

The more he is so clear about business affairs, the more Liang Hui thinks he is hateful.

Zhu Zhiyi's chess piece is too active and self-conscious, so self-conscious and interesting that it is unpleasant.

Liang Hui repeatedly pushed him out to test the bottom line of this person, just waiting for him to talk to him, who knew that he would accept everything without saying a word, even if he was bent on doing business for the public.

Only when one person has expectations beyond the boundaries of the other will there be demands and disappointments.

Zhu Zhiyi does not exist.

Liang Hui was not surprised, and raised his lips: "If the empress is dull, then there will be no wise people in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty."

"..."

Liang Hui looked at him intently, and softened his tone: "Does Qinggui really want to try this case? If not, you can tell me."

Zhu Zhiyi's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly said: "There is absolutely no such thing!"

"..."

Liang Hui took a deep breath, endured patience, and eased his breathing: "Then Qinggui, what do you want?"

"Promotion, promotion, or anything else, you can ask me."

Zhu Zhiyi doesn't want anything: "Back to the emperor, I don't want anything." What he really wants, Liang Hui can't afford to give back now.

"..."

Liang Hui pulled him back and sat down expressionlessly, added some more food for him, and said in a low voice: "If you don't have any, eat some more, and see how thin you are. The investigation is not in a hurry."

Zhu Zhiyi asked again: "Can I ask the emperor for anything I want?"

Liang Hui paused, his face softened a bit: "Of course, what does Qinggui want?"

Zhu Zhiyi got up, stood up solemnly, and bowed in a very formal way: "I hope that after the matter is completed, the emperor will abide by the promise, return my grandfather, and wish the family a clean line."

The smile in Liang Hui's eyes sank again, he looked down at him, and asked softly, "Is there anything else?"

"?" Zhu Zhiyi looked up in doubt, with a puzzled expression.

Liang Hui's eyes were bent, and he asked again patiently: "After the matter is done, you only want this? Is there anything else?"

As long as he said, anything is fine, Liang Hui lowered his eyes and said in his heart, he passed the steps so many times, so many times, as long as Zhu Zhiyi can reveal the slightest hint, he is willing to take the risk to go Be the one who shows his clumsiness first and shows his hole cards first, but maybe he will be defeated in the end.

It would be too hurtful if Zhu Zhiyi didn't have a ten-millionth friendship with him.

Liang Hui really hated all risks, hated being self-indulgent, hated being caught as a weakness, but he was tortured so much that he was eager to try.The cat teases the mouse, Liang Hui is used to being the cat who is sure to win, but now he has become a mouse under the claws of others.

Zhu Zhiyi thought for a moment, thought that Liang Hui was suspicious of his ambition and desire for power, and immediately expressed his loyalty in a solemn way: "No more, Your Majesty, I will do my best and do my best, and don't ask for anything."

"...Okay." Liang Hui's complexion remained unchanged, he was silent for a moment, and lightly pulled the corner of his mouth, "very good."

Zhu Zhiyi: "..."

Somehow, the lunch broke up badly.

Zhu Zhiyi’s hard work when he was studying is now a waste of sleep and food. His grandfather investigated the Jiangjin salt storage account case ten years ago when he was in Dali Temple, but it was fruitless. Later, when Daotai was turned over, he was convicted of an extra crime.

If this matter can be thoroughly investigated, there will be one less crime on my grandfather's body.

It is easy to convict a person, but it is very difficult to rehabilitate a person or a group of people.

Zhu Zhiyi is not sure how much effort and how long it will take to clean his grandfather's blood-stained tombstone, but he can't stop, and he will go all out for any chance of rehabilitating his name.

In the past, Qiao Yi might have hoped that the emperor might be sincere to his young master, but now he follows Zhu Zhiyi in and out of the court, helping Zhu Zhiyi handle some simple official affairs, and he no longer looks at things so superficially.

He sorted out the account books over the years, and muttered with some annoyance: "Why did the emperor try to get the young master to offend people?" Is that place in the south of the Yangtze River also free to check?It seems to be prosperous for ten miles, but in fact it is a dragon's lake and a tiger's den. The last time Zhuangzi changed his farmland, it was the same. It really becomes a lonely ghost, a lonely smoke in a vast grave.

Zhu Zhiyi buried her head in writing the notebook and laughed, "What do I want that false name for?"

"That can't be the case! You go to the south and hurt the hearts of those supporters, so who will follow you in the future, it's too bad—"

"Qiao Yi!" Zhu Zhiyi raised his face and said in a solemn voice, "What about the rules? I am strict with the law, but the people around me speak freely and disregard the holy will. How do you tell me to govern the palace?"

Qiao Yi sincerely pleaded guilty: "The little one is wrong, please punish the queen."

Zhu Zhiyi rubbed the roots of the mountain and explained: "I didn't become an official for fame and support, I really wanted to accomplish something, let alone for Liang Hui, something that is beneficial to the people, I am not afraid of being scolded."

"If you are afraid of offending others, then I will let other people do these things in the future—"

Qiao Yi quickly admitted his mistake: "My lord, calm down, I am narrow-minded."

Zhu Zhiyi coughed a few times, stayed up all night, her lips were pale, looked at him and said: "You are indeed narrow-minded, let me ask you, in all fairness, Yu Gong, is the emperor doing something wrong? Is it not beneficial to the people?" ? Is it useless to straighten the court and clean up the government?"

Qiao Yi had to admit: "...No."

"It's not, that's what my heart wants. What the emperor does is also my wish. Just remember, no one in this world can force me to do what I don't agree with or what I don't want to do." Neither can Liang Hui. .

"……Yes."

Zhu Zhiyi knew that he was not convinced, and also knew that he was loyal, so she said patiently: "Yu Zi, the emperor is the emperor, and I am a subject. It is a matter of loyalty to the emperor, and it is natural for the minister to obey the emperor's orders. You always listen to those who instigate discord and fan the flames." The rumors complained about my injustice, and I have no injustice, and I did everything willingly, with a clear conscience."

"How can there be eggs under a full nest? If you don't completely rectify the government, cut down the powerful officials, how can you return the integrity of the officials? I know you are loyal to me and worried about rehabilitating the clan, but this will not happen overnight." He was silent for a moment. , softly said, "Compared to rehabilitating the Zhu family, I hope to purge the court and restore the prosperity and Qingming to prevent future troubles, so that in the next ten or a hundred years, there will be no more such grievances and wrongs. Can you understand?" ?”

Qiao Yi was shocked by Zhu Zhiyi's long-sightedness for himself and others: "I see, son, I am short-sighted and eager for quick success."

Zhu Zhiyi smiled in relief and coughed again.

He roughly listed a few pages of suspicious points that could be obtained and ordered someone to copy them to Liang Hui. His subordinate said that the emperor was discussing with Shen Sizheng, Zhu Zhiyi was startled, smiled and said: "Then let's talk about it next time."

Liang Hui stayed overnight in the imperial study room recently, and specially ordered people not to turn off the lights at night, waiting left and right for those who did not see the door, and asked someone to ask, saying that Feng Suigong had called back to the imperial hospital yesterday.

Liang Hui's face was gloomy, and he carried the lamp and strode out. Zhang Fuhai couldn't catch up with him because of his long legs.

When we arrived at Fengsui Palace, Zhu Zhiyi was not there at all. Yuping said that he had gone to the government office before dawn, and he hadn't come back yet.

Liang Hui asked her again about yesterday's announcement about the Imperial Physician, with a more serious tone.

When he was not smiling, his eyebrows and eyes were even more lacquer and gloomy. Yuping saw that his expression was mixed and did not dare to hide Tai Chi, so she had to truthfully pass on the original words of the imperial physician, that he was tired, tired, and overworked.

After hearing this, Liang Hui was silent, looked at her for a moment, and said in a low voice, "The master forgets his body when he is busy, and a slave must know how to persuade him."

When the emperor was not smiling, his eyes were dark and cold, unfathomable, and Yuping's heart was trembling, and he hurriedly pleaded guilty.

When Liang Hui arrived at Yuanying Pavilion, Zhu Zhiyi was the only one left, and a young eunuch was left by the door to add oil and tea, dozing off little by little. In this remote and small government office, the palace servants are not allowed to accompany them on weekdays, and the front and rear palaces are clearly separated.

Zhu Zhiyi frowned and checked the account, unaware of the late-night visitor, until a deep black shadow fell heavily, and he raised his head to meet Liang Hui's expressionless face.

There is frost on the shoulders, and it looks like it has been standing by the door for a long time.

Zhu Zhiyi's heart skipped a beat, her head was dizzy, she squinted her eyes, thinking that she was hallucinating.

Liang Hui's deep and calm eyes swept over his tired eyebrows and pale lips inch by inch, and he could still laugh when he was dumbfounded. He tried his best to ask gently with his usual gentle appearance, "Aren't you going back so late?"

Zhu Zhiyi woke up like a dream, the gloom on this man's face just now seemed to be his hallucination.

"There are a few chapters left, so I won't leave the end."

Liang Hui nodded in understanding, and didn't persuade him to go back. He just walked over and touched the back of his hand, frowning, and went to change a new stove and stuffed it into his arms.

Zhu Zhiyi blinked a little sleepily, not knowing why.

The tea was re-brewed, the wick was cut off, and oil was added to the fire. Liang Hui felt that it was too dark and worried that he would hurt his eyes, so he moved another lamp from another place.The room suddenly brightened up, and it wasn't so gloomy anymore.
