Chapter 54 Palm Prints
Two women also came to Chunhui Hall. When they saw Xie Zhiwei, they put their hands in front of their lower abdomen, held their heads high, and looked down at Xie Zhiwei with their eyes on their foreheads. If you break the family rules this time, you should consciously go to the ancestral hall to receive the punishment!"
"What family rule did I break?" Xie Zhi sneered, "The reason why Brother Xi and I stayed overnight was because of the emperor's order. And last night, didn't fourth uncle rush over? With the elders by my side, we It’s in my own Zhuangzi again, dare to ask, why did it discredit the lintel of Xie’s family? But the old lady, if she doesn’t let me in today, I don’t know how the palace will know, how will she speak?”
After Xie Zhiwei finished speaking, she urged Yuan Shi, "Mom, let's go back first, I'm tired!"
"Let's go, go back first, let's talk about what's going on tomorrow!"
Qu Chengyu left the city carefully after asking people about Xie's family. While doing business in the East Factory, he naturally didn't say anything about going in and out of the city gate in the middle of the night. The group left the city smoothly, and after running for more than half an hour, they arrived at Xie Zhiwei's village.
Lu Yan has a lot of official business, and after waking up, he has been dealing with things, but Wang Shipu, an imperial physician, was in a hurry. He said a lot of dissuasion, and finally had to move Xie Zhiwei out, saying that he would go to invite him early in the morning. Xie Zhiwei came to check his pulse, his wealth and life were hanging on Lu Yan's body, so Lu Yan restrained himself a little.
But when they heard that Qu Chengyu was back, they rushed to let people in again.
How could Qu Chengyu know how to feel sorry for others, he bluntly told the old lady of the Xie family that he didn't let Xie Zhiwei in, and then clicked his tongue twice, "This motherless child is different, no wonder the eldest lady of the Xie family is a good lady If you don’t do it, learn to cure diseases and save people, probably because you are afraid of being killed by a bowl of poison from your grandmother, you will learn to argue medicine, and you will go far on this road if you are not careful.”
Lu Yan leaned on the big welcoming pillow, groaning silently, with only a pair of black eyes, the color of the eyes was like water, as if frozen for thousands of years, but it was also undetectable, and it took a long time before he said warmly, "Arrange it. You will be returning to Beijing early tomorrow morning!"
After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes, the obsidian-like light was cut off, and the picturesque face was hidden in the darkness, like a demon lurking in the dark, with endless temptation and danger.
Lu Yan's return to Beijing, of course, cannot be hidden from the emperor.
After the morning court, several court officials accompanied the emperor to talk in Dongnuan Pavilion. Although Jin Yiwei caught two people on the spot, he bit the poison hidden between his teeth and died of the assassination before the interrogation. up.
Emperor Shoukang was furious. When he heard that Lu Yan was coming back, he breathed a sigh of relief and ordered, "Tell me what I said, and let Ah Yan get better and come back to see me."
Lu Yan went to the palace to face the saint on the next day. Although his body was still weak, Xie Zhiwei's medicine was really good. Except for his complexion, everything else was fine.
The emperor was very happy to see him, and took a few glances at him, "Ah Yan, your wound hasn't healed yet, why is it so urgent that you insist on entering the palace?"
Lu Yan took a bowl of Yuchun tea from the little **** and handed it to the emperor. He lowered his eyes and his face was still coquettish and charming, "Your Majesty, I have already found out about the assassination. It was Gaochang people who did it." Yes, but, I'm afraid there are people behind it, and for the time being, I don't have any clues yet."
Jinyiwei has been investigating for two days, but there is still no clue!
"Yes, Your Majesty." Lu Yan tidied up the memorials on the couch, and put a memorial requested by the Uncle Yongchang's Mansion at the bottom, and said, "Please allow the emperor another two or three days."
"No hurry, don't rush to do things, take care of your body first." The emperor looked at Lu Yan and suddenly remembered something, "This time, you have made a great contribution, but, what can I reward you for?"
Lu Yan's movements were a little slow, and he smiled slightly, "Your Majesty, I don't need anything. Your honor and disgrace are tied to the Emperor. Serving the Emperor is what you should do. This time, I was able to escape death. Yuchen, the emperor's grace mighty."
Hearing this, the emperor's heart was overjoyed, and the smile on his face was even bigger, "Speaking of which, I was lucky to meet Miss Xie this time, but I never thought that Xie Tiao would raise a good granddaughter. Ah Yan, tell me, I will give you a little reward." What should I give Miss Xie?"
"Your Majesty, I don't know what to reward Miss Xie. I've been thinking about it for the past two days, but I haven't come up with a good one."
Yes, Miss Xie was born in a noble family, a girl's family, money is of no use to her, this is really embarrassing.
Lu Yan thought for a while, and said, "Your Majesty, Miss Xie is a woman, and even if it is rewarded, it should be done by the empress."
Yes, the queen is the master of the harem, and women know what women think.
The emperor thought it was a good idea, and was about to get up and go to the harem, when he saw the memorial that Lu Yan pushed to his hand, he asked habitually, "What's the matter?"
Lu Yan hasn't been around for the past two days. There are a lot of memorials piled up on the emperor's desk, and he gets annoyed just looking at them. However, except for Lu Yan, he can't trust anyone with military and national affairs. He originally planned to take a look at it slowly.
Although Lu Yan was recuperating, the affairs of the world did not escape his ears. Just by looking at the terms of the memorial, he knew what the people in it reported. again.
Lu Yan talked about important things, such as Yu Shi impeaching Hong Yan, the son of Marquis Yiwu, who was good at riding a royal horse, and the minister of the Ministry of War set up a firearms camp...
After talking for about a cup of tea, analyzing the details, the emperor quickly realized the mess of the government. Lu Yan just took a break, pulled out a memorial from the bottom, and presented it to the emperor with both hands respectfully, "Your Majesty, this Regarding the matter of being attacked and interrogated this time, please the emperor personally see it."
The emperor took the memorial, which was presented by the commander of Jin Yiwei. He looked at it at a glance, threw it aside, and looked dissatisfied, "Everyone is dead, what else to check? Luo Gang's work is becoming more and more inappropriate. .”
Lu Yan knew that the emperor's dissatisfaction with Luo Gang was far from not being able to find out the reason this time. Instead, Dongchang found out the clues, but that the auspicious appearance of the white tiger in Xiangrui County was reported by the Jinyiwei newspaper. It was also led by Jin Yiwei, and the emperor was assassinated as a result.
If it wasn't Jin Yiwei, it was the first personal guard. Luo Gang has been trusted by the emperor for so many years, and the emperor must have condemned him long ago.
"Your Majesty, after seeing this memorial from the Minister of War, I suddenly remembered that the Eastern Japanese reportedly obtained a kind of firearm from Xifan, which is better than ours. It only takes two people to carry it and run. The time for a bullet is only half a cup of tea, although this firearm can make limited contributions in the battlefield for the time being, it cannot make a small country like Dongwo surpass Dayong."
