Shu Blossoms

Chapter 265 Bargaining
"Aniang, if you do this, just one more person will fall into this whirlpool, and it won't solve the problem."

Zheng Wei sighed, "This kind of thing can't be explained clearly, it will only get darker and darker!"

"But it was Ah who was taken captive to Great Wei." The eldest princess was still not reconciled.

"A Niang, she has suffered enough, and now she is finally settled down, so don't drag her in again." Zheng Wei persuaded: "You love her too, don't you?"

"But I love you more!" The eldest princess's eyes were slightly red. At this moment, she regretted staying away from the court and the palace, and she was not familiar with the family members of the Jiankang clan. Her daughter was slandered by others, but there was nothing she could do!

"Aniang, fame is like a brocade skirt to me. The brocade clothes can certainly make me shine, but without it I still have coarse cotton clothes to keep out the cold. Not only can it not hurt me, but it will make me lose it." Restraints. I don’t even know what I would do without the restraints.”

The nervousness and panic passed, Zheng Wei seemed to have lost a layer of shackles, a sly smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Don't worry, Aniang. The most important thing right now is to learn from each other. As for the rest, let's discuss it slowly. Isn't it said that it hasn't spread yet?"

Zheng Wei comforted her, and the eldest princess looked at her suspiciously, "Don't worry about it, let them pour dirty water on you? Or do you have some idea."

Zheng Wei smiled wickedly, "Aniang, do you know what is the fastest way to dispel rumors?"

"What?" Everyone looked at her curiously.

"That is, there are more, bigger and more absurd rumors"

Everyone looked at each other when they heard the words, while Zheng Wei looked at Zheng Heng and said, "Brother, accompany me into the palace."

"Miao'er, tell Liniang and Yuan Wang to prepare all of us. Since they want to disturb Jiankang, they should make it more lively. Let's see who is more lively!"

In Xianyang Palace, Emperor Zhou had just drank the decoction when he heard his servants come to inform him, "The princess and Commander Zheng are here. Because you had an oral order before, the Imperial Army didn't stop them, so they let them in."

Emperor Zhou showed surprise, and looked down at Mu Wu: "Isn't this girl grounded by the eldest princess? Why did she come into the palace? Heng'er is still following."

Mu Wu bent down and reported: "Return to Your Majesty, I will not have time to report in the future, there have been rumors in Jiankang City in the past two days, about the fact that the princess was taken captive to the Great Wei three years ago, and the Mingyue Building of the Great Wei was auctioned off. The matter rests with the princess."

Emperor Zhou's face suddenly darkened, and he snorted coldly: "They are afraid that I will not die from anger, but have you found out who did it?"

"The news first came from the inner house of Jingzhao Shaoyin in Jingzhao Mansion, and then it spread to the inner house in Jiankang City somehow. This matter did not spread among the people, but it was discussed privately by the female relatives of each family. Behind the scenes The person has not been verified yet." Mu Wu respectfully replied.

"Then I will check with that Jingzhao Shao Yin. I want to see who the person behind it is. Is it really just to make things difficult for Wei'er?"

After Emperor Zhou gave his orders, Mu Wu took his leave and left slowly.

At this time Zheng Heng brothers and sisters were led in by the servant, Mu Wu greeted them, Zheng Wei said softly: "Lord Mu will be later." Then the two brothers and sisters came to the hall and bowed respectfully.

Emperor Zhou rubbed the center of his eyebrows with a headache, and sighed: "Get up, Wei'erzhen doesn't want to see you these days, as long as you come, there will be trouble."

Zheng Wei pouted aggrievedly, "Your Majesty, it's not me who caused trouble, it was trouble that came to me!"

"Tell me, why are you looking for me?" Zhou Di asked with a helpless smile after thinking about it.

"Your Majesty, brother and I are not looking for you today, but him!"

Zheng Wei said and pointed to Mu Wu at the entrance of the main hall.

"Why are you looking for Mu Wu? You don't like Qingwei the least?"

Emperor Zhou showed curiosity.

"Ask him for a favor, you need His Majesty's permission to seek Qingwei's help." Zheng Wei showed embarrassment, and explained dryly: "It's not that I don't like Qingwei, but I just feel that their current rules of conduct are not a long-term solution."

Emperor Zhou was noncommittal, turned aside from this matter and asked, "What do you want them to do for you?"

"Qingwei holds some secrets about most of the gentry and officials in Jiankang City. I want a few of them."

Zheng Wei said frankly.

"You want to mess up Jiankang City, do you know what the consequences will be? I don't agree!" Emperor Zhou's face was gloomy, "I know you have been slandered and feel depressed, but you should know that Dazhou cannot be chaotic, and Jiankang cannot Chaos! Weier, you passed this time!"

"Your Majesty, you're thinking about it." Zheng Wei explained: "I don't want those filthy things about important ministers, I just want to divert everyone's attention, love affairs, illegitimate children, whatever, as long as it's lively enough, and it's involved Those involved in these matters should get what they deserve. As for whoever can discuss it.”

Emperor Zhou's face softened when he heard the words, and asked curiously: "Is it really possible to discuss?"

"If those people have contacts with the national teacher, I will naturally not let them go!"

Zheng Wei has already determined that even if Zhang Ru did not plot this matter, he must have intervened, how could he let him go.

"You want news, even if I agree, you still have to ask Mu Wu if he wants to give it to you." Emperor Zhou threw a hot potato to Mu Wu.

Mu Wu naturally had no choice but to continue, but he had also learned something from the princess recently, that is, he should not be at a disadvantage. After all, the princess of Danyang had to ask him for favors, so naturally he had to ask for favors.

"Qingwei will naturally provide the news the Princess needs, but" Mu Wumian showed hesitation, Zheng Wei urged him: "If you have any request, just say it!"

"The princess said that there is something wrong with Qingwei's current regulations, and I would like to ask the princess to go to Qingwei to guide her when she has time in the future."

Mu Wu bowed his hands in invitation.

Zheng Wei didn't expect it to be this matter, and said embarrassingly, "I don't have that ability, you might as well ask those respected elders for advice."

"The Princess is just joking. If those elders were to tell me, Qingwei shouldn't exist at all. Moreover, I learned that Wei's current reforms are beginning to bear fruit."

As soon as Mu Wuyan finished speaking, Zheng Wei's face became even uglier, hesitantly looked at Emperor Zhou, "Your Majesty, I wrote it indiscriminately at that time."

"Hehe..." Emperor Zhou couldn't help laughing, "There are really few people who can make you speechless. I don't blame you, but I think you have done a good deed. Da Wei is now using Cui Yan to implement The reform is to change the Xianbei surname and to learn Chinese, in general, the life of the Han people will be easier, maybe one day, there will be no Xianbei people, only the Han people will be left."

Zheng Wei heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and quickly sent horses to please him, saying: "Your Majesty still thinks long-term. At the beginning, I wrote it randomly, and my original intention was to make people's lives easier. I didn't expect Tuoba Yu to do it seriously. "

"The princess agreed to my minister." Mu Wushun climbed the pole, and Zheng Wei couldn't refuse for a while, so he could only say: "Afterwards, Mu Wujun can come to me and talk about it. If he can help Qingwei, he will do his best."

"I can give you news, but you can't touch some people, and you can't ruin my plan."

Seeing that they had discussed it, Emperor Zhou instructed Zheng Wei, and then took a look at Mu Wu, and the two took orders one after another.

Zheng Heng has been calmly standing aside watching A-mei and Mu Wu bargaining, not intending to intervene, until they reached an agreement and planned to leave together, but was stopped by Zhou Di.

Zheng Wei glanced at Elder Brother worriedly, Zheng Heng nodded and said in a low voice: "You and she go to find Mu Wu first, we will meet at the gate of the palace in an hour."

Zheng Wei looked at Emperor Zhou again, and Emperor Zhou waved his hand, "Go, I have something to tell your elder brother to do."
