Chapter 681 Guoben
Xie Zhi smiled and said, "Madam's words are very true. The prince is invincible in battle. It is rumored that the prince uses soldiers like a god, so that the people in the western and northern borders will no longer be displaced and suffer from the war. The prince's wish. I don't know, is there any connection between my wife and Jiangnan?"
Wang said, "Because my natal mother is old and my brothers and sisters-in-law are all in the south, I have to write several letters to my natal family every year. This year, I am in Jingzhao Mansion. The family is under the care of the princess and has stabilized. I plan to take care of her tomorrow. The Escort sent some gifts over there, so that mother can relax, what orders does the Princess have?"
Xie Zhiwei didn't beat around the bush, "The Jingzhao Mansion has suffered from wars these years, and the literary affairs are not prosperous. After the spring of the empress, some Buddha statues need to be dug. As a result, a group of craftsmen and painters are needed. If it is convenient for the wife, please help me. People take this message to the south, and if anyone wants to come, whether he is hired or not, there will be travel expenses to and from."
Mrs. Wang hurriedly put her hands together, said the Buddha's name "Amitabha", and said, "The princess and the empress are both merciful people. All scholars in the world do not want to travel thousands of miles. The princess is willing to invest in them. Even if they come to see you The world is also willing."
After that, the two talked about planting sweet potatoes. Xie Zhiwei learned that after Yu Yingzhi inspected the soil here, he thought it was suitable for planting, so he felt relieved and said with a smile, "I hope that in the ceremony to be sent to the capital next year, we can There are sweet potatoes, and my grandfather really likes to play around with some of the crops."
Wang said with a smile, "My lord will be very happy again if he hears the words of the princess. Mr. Xie is concerned about the farming affairs of the country. If he can get the attention of Mr. Xie, he will plant them near the capital in the future, and it will naturally be popularized soon. .”
"This is a major event that benefits the country and the people. When it comes to merit, no one has greater merit than Mr. Yu."
The gift to the capital arrived the day before the Laba Festival. At the gate of Xie’s house, there were a total of six carriages filled with gifts, three were sent by Xie Zhiwei, and three were sent by Yuan’s people.
Haishi arranged for someone to unload the truck, and Qianshi was helping at the side. Seeing that they were all unseen in the capital, Qianshi said with a smile, "No wonder my sister-in-law wants to follow to Jingzhao Mansion. The wind is different in ten miles, and the customs are different in hundreds of miles. I want to visit Jingzhao Mansion."
After Yuan Shi left, the Xie family's middle class was handed over to Hai Shi. Although Qian Shi had some complaints, Qian Shi couldn't compare with Hai Shi in terms of status or background, and beat her several times. After this time, Qian Shi stopped talking in a hurry.
Hai Shi did not answer the call, but invited the steward who was in charge of delivering the gift to the hall, and after enjoying tea, he asked, "I wonder if the gift delivered to the elder has arrived yet?"
The steward replied respectfully, "The slave came out early. Although the weather was bad, he walked for more than 20 days. I don't know when he got up for the gift sent by his family?"
"It was sent out on the third day of the first month of November. Is the journey peaceful?"
"Only the road is difficult to walk. Although the weather is cold, the west is very peaceful now. When we entered the capital, we met two groups of bandits on the road. They saw that they were sent by the Prince Chen's mansion, so they let us go."
Hearing this, Haishi was relieved, ordered people to reward these people, and asked them to send the gift, the precious book to the warehouse, and the food and ordinary things to be given to the courtyards. Divided some.
In the East Nuan Pavilion of Linde Hall, the earth dragon is burning very vigorously.
Concubine Zheng Rong took the medicine from the **** Wei Chao and wanted to feed it to the emperor herself. She asked, "Your Majesty, did they tell your majesty that Xiliang invaded and Lu Yan went to Xijiang? Your majesty, they all lied to your majesty." Yes, only courtiers and concubines are loyal to the emperor, Lu Yan is the son of Marquis Dingyuan, and Lu Yan went to Xijiang to fight Xiliang just to avenge Marquis Dingyuan..."
The emperor coughed, and Concubine Zheng Rong turned her head away in disgust. When the emperor's asthma got better, she handed a spoonful of medicine to the emperor's lips. Naturally, the emperor refused to drink it. As soon as he raised his hand, he knocked over the medicine bowl.
A bowl of pitch-black medicine was all spilled on Concubine Zheng Rong. Concubine Zheng Rong raised her hand in anger, wishing she could slap the emperor in the face. Wei Chao reminded, "Your Majesty, you still have business to do!"
Only then did Concubine Zheng Rong calm down, and she took out an imperial edict and asked the emperor to sign it, "Your Majesty, no one cares about you now, look at the palace, who else can protect you? On the day Lu Yan came back, I'm afraid it will be the time of your death. However, your majesty, don't be afraid, you still have a son!"
Even though the emperor's mouth was crooked and his eyes were slanted, he could still read the characters. Seeing that the edict was written by Concubine Zheng Rong herself, and wanted to make Xiao Changye, the third son of the emperor, the crown prince who would inherit the throne in the future, he closed his eyes in anger and passed out.
Concubine Zheng Rong was furious, and asked Wei Chao to search everywhere in Dongnuange. At this time, Li Baozhen came in, and Pei Ji, the commander of the imperial army, came in with him.
Li Baozhen put a kind of ointment in front of the emperor's nose and sniffed it. The emperor woke up slowly and saw Li Baozhen and Pei Ji coming in. He felt relieved, pointed at Concubine Zheng Rong and Wei Chao, and shouted, "Kill, kill, kill!"
He can only speak a few simple words now, and he can no longer speak complicated words.
Li Baozhen hurriedly supported the emperor and stroked his back, "Your majesty, it is the slave who has no eyes and let this dog break in. The slave does not have the knowledge of people like the governor. If the governor is here, he will definitely not let the emperor suffer." This humiliation, the slave will pass it on to the cabinet for discussion."
In the Dongnuan Pavilion, the emperor was lying on the couch. After some discussions among several cabinet ministers, Concubine Zheng Rong was demoted to a commoner, imprisoned in the cold palace, and killed by the Wei Dynasty. The emperor was very satisfied and nodded.
He thought that Lu Yan had never made a mistake in his errands for so many years, if Lu Yan hadn't left the capital for the war in Western Xinjiang today, why would he be humiliated by the Zheng family so far, and asked, "Aaayan? "
That means, when will Lu Yan come back?
Xie Tiao glanced at Pei Ji, and Pei Ji hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, Lord Lu may return to Beijing at the latest next spring, and there will be no wars in Western Xinjiang from now on!"
Next spring? The emperor rolled his eyes and looked at the snowflakes flying outside the window. He was very reluctant, but he also knew the importance of the battle in Western Xinjiang, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Xie Tiao persuaded the emperor, "Your Majesty, the crown prince has been the foundation of the country since ancient times. After the emperor has been in power for a hundred years, the country cannot be without a king for a day. If the emperor does not establish a crown prince as soon as possible, the ministers and others are worried that some people may be like Zheng's, whimsical and disrupt the court. "
