Chapter 91 091
As a result, Yuan Cixian fell unconscious after touching the pillow, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the sky was dim, and it was almost 10 o’clock. She turned over, thumped her sore back, and saw that Lu Shiqing, who was used to getting up earlier than her, was still fast asleep, showing no sign of waking up.
She tried her best to open the eyelids that were about to close back, counted the days with her fingers, and then pushed him violently: “Lu Shiqing, you are not going to court? It’s time to be late!”
Lu Shiqing was drifting in a dream, and when she woke up abruptly, he frowned and closed his eyes tightly. He didn’t know if he heard it clearly, so he casually said “oh”.
She got up and continued to push him: “You should get up.”
He was so annoyed that he pulled off the quilt and covered his face, and said desperately: “…I can’t get up.”
Yuan Cixian couldn’t laugh or cry.
Who told him to torment her for most of the night last night, now it’s over, let’s squeeze it out!
She struggled to tear off the corner of the quilt that was tightly held in her hand, and said angrily, “You want the whole capital to know what you did last night?”
Lu Shiqing turned over, pressed his face to the bed and buried it, and said “um” unmoved.
In a fit of anger, she stretched her long legs, straddled his waist, leaned over to straighten his face, squeezed his chin and said, “Can’t you afford it?” Pull him with both hands, “Get up, if you don’t make it, your salary will be deducted!”
Lu Shiqing finally raised his eyelids, and seeing her warrior-like posture, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he seemed to be firing a gun again. He took a deep breath and restrained himself before saying, “You will dress me?”
Yuan Cixian originally wanted to say “beautiful thinking”, but seeing his bleary-eyed appearance is really cute, she couldn’t help but feel soft, and even most of the anger from last night disappeared, she lowered her head and held his face, throwing him a charming look With a wink, he said, “Get up and I’ll dress it for you.”
He stretched out his hand aggressively, motioning for her to pull him.
Yuan Cixian wrinkled his nose at him, stretched out his hand and pulled him up, but because of his posture, he knocked him unsteadily and fell back.
Hearing her “Ouch”, Lu Shiqing’s reaction was sharp, and he quickly reached out to support her waist, and held her firmly in his arms.
The noses of the two touched together because of this movement. He looked down at her slightly red and swollen lips, stretched out his thumb, and stroked her in a comforting manner.
Yuan Cixian also said that he was going to kiss her, and hurriedly stepped back: “You are sleepy, I haven’t rinsed my mouth yet.”
Lu Shiqing hesitated when he heard the words. He didn’t intend to do this at first, but if he doesn’t kiss her now, it means he dislikes her.
He had no choice but to half-open his eyes sleepily, lowered his head and pecked her, and said, “I haven’t either.”
Yuan Cixian glanced at him, but with a smile on the corner of her mouth, she tucked her sideburns behind her ears, urged him to hurry up, and then climbed down to get his official uniform by Mu Shi.
Lu Shiqing sighed and followed, stretched out his arms and continued to doze off. He was so sleepy that he didn’t enjoy the feeling of being dressed by Yuan Cixian for the first time in his life, until he heard her doubtful voice from below: “Is this belt yours?” Button the third jade button?”
He stood there squinting his eyes and let out a weak “hmm”.
Yuan Cixian continued to bend over to trouble him, and it looked so strange when it was over, but she couldn’t tell what was wrong, so she hesitated and said “Okay”, until Lu Shiqing finished washing and went out like a wandering soul. He slapped his head violently.
She forgot to ask whether it was the third from the top or the third from the bottom.
She immediately ordered Cao An to chase after Lu Shiqing, wanting him to check and confirm quickly, but unexpectedly, Zhao Shu’s driving skills have improved so much that he didn’t even see the end of the chase, so in the afternoon of the same day, Lu Shilang went up to buckle the gold and jade belt. It spread throughout Chang’an City.
Yuan Cixian anxiously waited for Lu Shiqing to come back with a dark face and scold her. When it was dusk, he looked refreshed and didn’t even change the wrong belt. The next day, I went out to have a look again, and I saw men, women and children in the streets and alleys, four or five out of ten used this method of reverse buckle to tie their belts, which is called popular.
“…” This world is too tolerant of good-looking people.
It’s a pity that the sage tolerated the dishonorable behavior of his favorite minister, but he didn’t tolerate others. Within a few days, the shocking reversal of the two major cases blew up the entire court.
One is the case of Cai He, which has been going on for more than ten days. Given the conclusive evidence, Cai He’s crime was a certainty. However, what everyone did not expect was that the servant of the criminal department who exposed him before was exposed to a scandal at this juncture, saying that he had hidden tens of thousands of unidentified people in his private house. Wear silver coins and a dozen beauties.
It is not a rare thing to be rich and lustful, but the reason is that the origin is unknown. The “sharp” sage immediately ordered the supervisory censor to arrange for the investigation, and after following along the way, he “discovered” that these things were all made by the Shaoqing of Dali Temple.
When Cai He, the Minister of Dali Temple, was taken into custody for accepting bribes and wrongly convicted, the Shaoqing below gave a meal to the servant of the Ministry of Punishment who exposed him.
The saint with “eyes like torches” ordered people to investigate further, and then “smoothly” found the secret letter between the two of them. This proves that it was the Shaoqing of Dali Temple who failed to be promoted before, and Cai He leapfrogged him to the position, so he felt dissatisfied and intended to frame him and drag him down.
Cai He’s grievances were cleared away, but his body was weakened after receiving more than ten days of criminal law. When he was taken to the Xuanzheng Hall, he was already skinny and covered with bruises. In an instant, the crowd in the court was agitated.
Of course, it is not that no one has seen the loopholes and doubts in the entire process of overturning the case. It’s just that they also saw that the root of this matter was that the sage wanted to cover the sky with one hand. In this man-eating place, the truth is never as important as power and the general trend. Those with a little discernment naturally chose to shut up and pretend to be stupid.
Therefore, the whole court begged the saints to severely punish the sonorous voices of the Shaoqing of Dali Temple and the servants of the Ministry of punishment. Outside, smiling on the sidelines.
After Yuan Cixian learned of this, he could only sigh that he was old and cunning.
But it was her husband who was treacherous and cunning, so this was a compliment.
The second case is the Qujiang case that shocked the government and the public. The two princes were assassinated together by the Qujiang River. Just when everyone was suspicious of who was so daring, news came out from the Jingzhao Mansion that the suspect had been successfully captured and was being tortured and interrogated.
As soon as the news came out, the second prince couldn’t help being a little confused, and sent his cronies to investigate the matter. Unexpectedly, the news was a trap to lure him into a trap—the Jingzhao Mansion didn’t catch any suspects at all, but now, they caught him The secretive confidant.
Zheng Ji was sure that his cronies would never betray him, but the old emperor was already extremely disappointed in him. As long as the result was correct, he didn’t care about the process at all, so he directly ordered someone to draft a confession, and forced that person to commit the crime.
The story of the second prince’s thief shouting to catch the thief quickly spread throughout the court. The saint was furious, and smashed a jade pen pillow on his son’s head in public, smashing him a big bag, whether he was kneeling or crawling, how painful his words were, and sincerely repented, nothing more Listen, I threw up my sleeves and left in resentment.
The world is warm and cold, and you will know when you die.
At this time, sympathy for the sixth child is the general trend, and everyone might as well say a word to express their position, but no one in the Second Prince’s Party dared to show their faces easily and intercede for Zheng Ji. It’s inconvenient for Ping Wang’s party to get involved, so he can only wait and see.
But the old emperor really made up his mind this time, and didn’t let everyone guess for too long, but within a few days, he issued an imperial decree, saying that the second prince’s intentions were not righteous, and he had provoked internal strife several times over the years, causing brothers to fight against each other, making brothers divorced, and chaotic. Dazhou Sheji destroyed the peace of the court, and now deprives him of all his powers and demotes him to Yazhou, a borderland in the south, where he hangs alone overseas.
The battle for the imperial family of the Great Zhou Dynasty has been going on for several years. The old emperor let the position of the crown prince be vacant, and he has never made a clear statement on this until this eloquent imperial decree.
The moment the prison van escorting Zheng Ji drove out of Chang’an City, the court of the Great Zhou also shattered into fragments at the same moment, waiting for a pair of hands to reassemble and piece it together like a god.
Everything was within Lu Shiqing’s expectations.
The movement of Chang’an City quickly spread all the way to the southwest region. On the day when the marriage team stepped into Nanzhao’s closed gate, Xiju received these two pieces of news from the capital.
Shao He was sitting across from him silently, leaning slightly against the wall of the car, listening to him talking about these things that she didn’t care about.
Xiju finished speaking on his own, and sighed, “Lu Zishu really has some skills.”
Shaohe didn’t speak when he heard the words, and even his expression didn’t fluctuate, he just quietly blinked his eyes at the lush tree scenery flashing by outside the car curtain.
Seeing that she couldn’t get in, Xiju was not upset, but said: “The Nanzhao Imperial City is in front of you. After passing through this gate, you will be the future queen of Nanzhao, and you will have nothing to do with Da Zhou. Your lord, who knows the current affairs Wei Junjie, I don’t know how you think about the cooperation I proposed last time.”
Shao He turned his head and said indifferently: “I don’t understand what else in me deserves His Highness’s cooperation. I still say that, even if I have nothing to do with Da Zhou, I won’t have anything to do with Your Highness.”
Xiju smiled: “Since your lord doesn’t understand, I will mention a few more words. I think your lord should have a little-known secret, and this secret not only allows me to hold Nanzhao in my hands, It can also help me wipe out the surrounding Tubo, Pyu and even the Great Zhou.”
Shao He’s gaze flickered for a moment, his hands covered in his sleeves trembled imperceptibly, and he said as calmly as possible: “Your Highness’s words, I don’t understand.”
Xiju slowly leaned over to her through a narrow table in the car, and asked with a smile, “Since you don’t understand, why are you afraid?”
The distance between the two of them was too close, the heat of his words sprayed on her lips, she didn’t speak any more, just stared at him with breathless breath.
The corner of Xiju’s lips twitched: “There has never been a so-called inviolable destiny or decree in this world, and some are just going the wrong way. And you have been wrong from the very beginning.” He looked at her eyes slightly bent, He paused word by word, “Zheng Yun, Buddha can’t make you perfect, but I can save you.”
