Chapter 773
Di Renjie didn't find it strange that Wu Meiniang would summon him. After all, Li Fan didn't follow Wu Meiniang's account because he listened to Di Renjie's advice. It's strange that Wu Meiniang didn't settle accounts with him.

Wu Meiniang called, and Di Renjie quickly went straight from the East Palace to the Lizheng Hall. On the way, he kept deliberating his words, appearing cautious, but he didn't feel very scared.

Di Renjie is not afraid not because he despises Wu Meiniang. Wu Meiniang is the queen of the world with her own dignity. Emperor Li Ke in the East Palace and Ganlu Hall.

Just a while ago, Li Ke once summoned Di Renjie in the Palace of Ganlu, and asked him about Li Bing's opening of the palace. At first, Di Renjie thought it was Li Ke because he was worried that Li Bing would go astray, so he told him to help him, but now he thought it was Di Renjie. Misunderstood Li Ke's meaning, Li Ke may be worried about today's situation.

Di Renjie thought for a long time yesterday, and finally understood Li Ke's intentions. The affairs between the emperor and empress are very important, let alone tell and explain to others. Di Renjie is young and cannot be regarded as a courtier in the strict sense. Li Ke brought it up again. Yes, he has a close relationship with Li Fan, so he is naturally the best person for this matter.

At this moment, Di Renjie also understood why Li Ke arranged the candidates for the officials of the East Palace in such a way. minister.

Especially Xiao Yu and Ma Zhou, one has experienced the three dynasties of the Tang Dynasty and has great prestige, and the other is the emperor's confidant, who is regarded as an arm. They will definitely not agree with the queen's interference in politics. Once they know about it, they will even enter the palace directly Arguing with Wu Meiniang, how dare the empress act recklessly.

"Prince Sizhi Di Renjie, pay homage to the queen." In the Lizheng Hall, Di Renjie bowed to Wu Meiniang and saluted.

Wu Meiniang didn't come up to blame Di Renjie, but raised her hand and said with a smile: "Huaiying is here, get up quickly."

"Thank you queen." Di Renjie thanked and stood up.

After Di Renjie got up, Wu Meiniang asked, "Did Huaiying come from the East Palace?"

Di Renjie replied: "Now is the time to take office, the queen summoned me, and Chen Te came here from the East Palace as ordered."

"You are the one chosen by His Majesty to accompany the prince. I have informed you that you are only here for small talk. You don't have to be too restrained. Sit down and talk." Wu Meiniang waved her hand, signaling Di Renjie to sit down.

Wu Meiniang spoke politely, but Di Renjie didn't dare to be careless. Di Renjie carefully sat down in front of Wu Meiniang, and said, "I don't know what the queen wants, but please tell me."

Wu Meiniang didn't come up and asked Di Renjie about Li Fan's disobedience to her, but asked first: "Huaiying is from Bingzhou, right?"

Di Renjie replied truthfully: "What the queen said is that the minister is from Taiyuan, Bingzhou."

Wu Meiniang said: "The Di family in Taiyuan, officials of all dynasties, is also a famous family in Hedong. The ancestral home of this palace is Wenshui, which is also in Taiyuan. Speaking carefully, our two families are also from the same hometown. You serve in the Palace of Yun'er, and you are also from the same hometown of this palace. , it is even more of my own, and I can often come to the Lizheng Palace in the future, so I don’t want to be born."

Wu Meiniang and Di Renjie were indeed from Taiyuan, no doubt they were from the same village, and Wu Meiniang's behavior seemed quite kind, but what Wu Meiniang said made Di Renjie dare not appreciate it. After all, Di Renjie could guess what Wu Meiniang meant.

Di Renjie didn't say much, but he couldn't refuse Wu Meiniang's kindness face to face, and replied: "If there is a chance in the future, I will come to the palace to see the queen again."

Seeing that Di Renjie responded, Wu Meiniang then asked, "How long has Huaiying been studying with Peng'er?"

Di Renjie replied: "The minister was ordered by His Majesty to attend the prince's study in the 14th year of Zhenguan, and it has been seven years now."

Wu Meiniang said with a smile: "Seven years is really not short. You come from a famous family, and you have been a student of the prince since you were young. You have a very close friendship with the prince. You are a little closer than Wang Xuance to your majesty. In the future, the chancellor will be a certainty." of."

Di Renjie and Li Xuan are close, and Li Ke personally named the prince's attendant. It is not an exaggeration to say that Di Renjie's official career is bright. If you come out, it's a bit of a win-win.

Di Renjie knew the purpose of Wu Meiniang calling him here, so he didn't dare to accept Wu Meiniang's affection, lest he fall into Wu Meiniang's trap later.

Di Renjie said: "The boy is just a fluke. He has the trust of His Majesty. He uses it in the East Palace. He fears and fears every day. He just thinks about not hurting His Majesty's wisdom. As for the matter of paying homage to the prime minister, it is His Majesty's decision. There is half a bit of extravagant hope."

What Di Renjie said was the truth, and he acted quite modestly, but there was also a meaning revealed in the words, that is, the affairs of the court are all decided by Li Ke, whether Di Renjie can worship the prime minister in the future, Di Renjie himself It doesn't count, what Wu Meiniang said doesn't count, only what Li Ke said counts.

Having said this, Di Renjie obviously didn't want to buy Wu Meiniang's account anymore. Wu Meiniang knew that she would not be able to show her good intentions all the time, so her expression changed a little bit, and she suddenly asked Di Renjie, "What about this palace and the prince?" Ask yourself and treat you well, you dare not hurt His Majesty's wisdom, how dare you persuade the prince to do some unfilial things."

Here, Di Renjie listened to Wu Meiniang's words, knowing that Wu Meiniang had finally revealed his purpose, and the questioning came.

Even though Di Renjie knew what Wu Meiniang was talking about, he still pretended not to know, and asked, "I don't dare, and I don't know what the queen said?"

Wu Meiniang said: "The prince opened the palace at a young age, and I don't feel at ease, so I asked the prince to report to me every day. Why did you push the prince to prevent him from doing this?"

Facing Wu Meiniang's accountability, Di Renjie was already prepared to speak, and replied: "The minister never urged the prince not to report the matter to the queen, but just told the prince that the things written by the prince should not be related to the government."

Wu Meiniang asked dissatisfied: "Mother and son of the Tian family, is there anything else that cannot be mentioned?"

Di Renjie said: "If the queen and the prince are asking about family matters or private matters, there is nothing wrong with it. But if it is a state matter or a court matter, it should not be mixed with personal affairs. After all, the prince is not only a son of man, but also a heir. The one who decides the world's major affairs."

Di Renjie's words caught her ears, and Wu Meiniang became more and more displeased. She knew that it was impossible to resolve this matter peacefully today, so she snorted softly and asked, "If I insist on doing this, what will you do?"

If Di Renjie was older, he might have acted a little more maturely and prudently, trying to deal with Wu Meiniang's problems in a roundabout way, but now Di Renjie is far from the one who should be reused in 40 years. Mr. Di Ge, who is seeking for the country, is still a young and proud young man full of passion.

Now Di Renjie is young and energetic, has a successful career, has never suffered a loss, and has Li Ke and Ma Zhou behind him, how could he be scared out of courage by Wu Meiniang's words.

Di Renjie said: "If that's the case, I should take up the post of the crown prince. Please ask your majesty for this matter. If your majesty agrees, I will naturally have nothing to say, and I should also ask the queen for guilt."

"you"

Wu Meiniang didn't expect that Di Renjie would respond to her like this, and she was so angry that she was even speechless.

After a while, Wu Meiniang waved her sleeves and said to Di Renjie: "You are so capable. It is not in vain that His Majesty treats you so highly. I know what you mean. Go back."
