A Thousand Gold Order: Inheritance

Chapter 273
Yang Chenglian's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly looked up at the emperor.

This time, Ning's mind really went blank, she couldn't stand it, and wanted to faint on the spot.

Yang Chenglian has been in the officialdom for nearly [-] years. He has worked steadily, starting from a small official who was sent out, and has accumulated political achievements in a down-to-earth manner until today.

If Concubine Wen once entered the palace and became a concubine, it was an attic in the air rising from the ground with smoke rising from the family's ancestral tomb, then Yang Chenglian can be said to be a luxurious mansion built step by step, step by step, with the foundation laid and built.

Just comparing it from the aspects of gold content and stability...

Qi Huan can completely understand the plan of the mother and son to abandon the car to keep the handsome!

Because the emperor's treatment of Concubine Wen was too heavy, she even thought that this matter was settled and explained.

and so--

Now, is it just to beat Yang Chenglian with a few words?

Yang Chenglian has been in the officialdom for many years, and he has naturally developed a temperament of being calm when he is in a position of authority. At this time, his face is full of shock. He watched the emperor froze for a while, his lips moved, but he felt that his throat was stuffed with a ball of cotton ...

After a long time, he hastily kowtowed heavily again, and said sadly: "It's my negligence, Ziwen... Since the eldest daughter of my minister entered the palace, because of the differences between the monarch and his ministers, and the fact that I have been in trouble for many years She was released for a long time, so she was indeed negligent in controlling and guiding, so that she made such a big mistake today. It is the humble minister who is ashamed of His Majesty, the humble minister is guilty, please forgive me!"

"Goddess has no way" four words, he was bitten to death and refused to say it.

And his words, which seem to be sincere and sorrowful, are actually——

But it's just beating around the bush to pass the buck.

Concubine Wen's reputation before entering the palace is obvious to all, and he also wanted to use this to confuse the audition, and completely disassociate Concubine Wen's evil from their own relationship.

Moreover, he was hinting to the emperor and courtiers about his hard work in office over the years.

And Ning's——

Although she said nothing in her own house, Yang Chenglian would look at her face, but she knew her identity very well. Now the emperor confronted him face to face. Feeling anxious, he followed his son and kowtowed to the ground.

Yang Pan'er completely lost the ability to think.

The emperor dealt with her sister-in-law, but he didn't seem to see her as a pawn, and didn't mention her. Now seeing her father and grandmother panicking, she immediately lowered her body and lowered her sense of existence.

And these tricks and scheming played by Yang Chenglian's words——

Those present, except for a few generals who were particularly upright and careless, most of them could understand it.

But at the same time, they also felt that Yang Chenglian, the censor of the right capital, was newly promoted this year and was very popular. Since the emperor had already dealt with Concubine Wen, it was probably just a warning to him...

Even Qi Huan thought so too.

However, the emperor took an unusual path today. He directly ignored Yang Chenglian's hints, and said coldly: "Guilty is not a problem. The children have grown up and grown up, and no one's parents can stay close to each other." Stare and follow, if Yang's daughter is another family's daughter, she has made mistakes in the palace for many years, and I will not be too harsh on her natal family..."

Yang Chenglian faintly felt that the words were wrong, his lips moved, because he was not sure of the emperor's intentions, he still didn't dare to speak rashly.

Sure enough, the next moment, the emperor changed the subject: "But Yang Qing, you are different! The youngest daughter covets other people's husbands and has no sense of shame as a woman, and the eldest daughter has failed the emperor's favor. Relying on the royal status I gave her, Domineering, framing and killing innocent people at will. Yang Qing, you can bear the four words of teaching a daughter without a way. You can't even guide your own daughter's conduct well, and you know it by seeing the details...You are the censor of the capital, and you are in charge of it. What you want is to supervise and judge the character and political achievements of the world's officials, how can you tell me to believe that you are competent?"

"Your Majesty..." Yang Chenglian shouted in fear.

Ning Shi was really overwhelmed this time, she rolled her eyes and passed out on the spot.

Yang Chenglian even cared about her, and in a hurry just kowtowed to the emperor and begged for love.

But the emperor still didn't give him a chance to speak again, and said decisively: "You have been an official for many years, and you have worked hard without credit. There is no need to go to the court to listen to the training. Li Baohong, you will go there in a while, and take back all the official seals and uniforms tonight."

This is really a return to before liberation!
Qi Huan was a little confused.

Yang Shi did not expect that after this turmoil would end in such a way, to her, it was tantamount to a pleasant surprise.

The helpless hatred that has been suppressed for so many years seems to have vented half of it in an instant, and the big stone that was pressing on my heart was removed, and I felt refreshed and full of joy.

"Your Majesty, my humble minister..." Yang Chenglian was not reconciled, and kowtowed twice again, wanting to plead for mercy.

The emperor has stood up.

He was condescending, looked at the other party with deep eyes, and said meaningfully: "Yang Qing is already old, and it's time to take a rest."

His expression and tone were majestic and cold, and there was no lack of warning and beating.

Yang Chenglian was in great torment. He was unwilling to let the ups and downs of his life in the officialdom end so hastily, but he was not so impulsive that he completely lost his mind.

He suddenly realized—

The emperor has actually seen through everything!
The reason why he treats Concubine Wen so seriously is not because he hates Concubine Wen for being guilty, but because he never believed that Concubine Wen would do it alone!
As the master of the world, how can he not have the heart to tolerate the mistakes of those around him?Such a merciless way of bringing them all together...

It's because, the more superior one is, the more unbearable it is for others to fool him like a fool!
This time, it was their family who made a big mistake!
They only wanted to take every step of the way and deal a fatal blow to Yang Qingyun and Yang Moyin, but unexpectedly designed the emperor as their chess piece as it should be!

wrong!Big mistake!
But at this moment, it's too late to regret!

Yang Chenglian knew that at this point, there was no room for maneuver.

Even though his heart was bleeding from pain and regret at this moment, at this moment, he had no choice but to hold back his words, and kowtowed heavily to the emperor's feet again with tears in his eyes: "Old minister... Thank you Your Majesty for understanding this old minister, my emperor is lenient, long live Long live long live!"

After finishing speaking, he gave up hope, and crawled back, helped his old mother who had fainted to the ground, and leaned on her lap for the time being.

The emperor didn't care about their family anymore, he just turned his head and glanced at the civil and military officials at the banquet, and sighed slightly: "The business here is over, all the lovers have worked hard, you should also leave the palace and go home to sleep well."

Everyone got up quickly and knelt down beside their seats.

The emperor walked away amidst their shouts of long live.

"Everyone get up." Queen Gu called after the break.

Seeing Gu Zhan and Qi Huan standing together, she walked up to Gu Zhan and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty is tired tonight. If your report can be delayed until tomorrow, come back tomorrow. Let's stop tonight."

These days, there have been continuous military reports coming to Beijing from the south.

It is true that Gu Zhan did not bring back any urgent and important news, but according to the usual rules, the first thing he should do when he returns to Beijing as a general stationed abroad is to return to the saint.

"Yes. That humble minister will come back tomorrow, please Your Majesty and Empress to sleep early today." Gu Zhan cupped his hands.

Empress Gu nodded slightly, and left in a grandiose manner with the concubines and princes.

Everyone at the palace banquet got up one after another, Qi Huan also walked to the side, and together with Yang Qingyun, helped Yang up from left to right: "Mother, are you okay? Do you want to ask the imperial doctor to cut the pulse before we go back?"

There was indeed a moment when Yang Shi almost failed to survive.

But seeing the misfortune of Yang Chenglian's family, it was tantamount to giving her a shot in the arm. She was already much better now, but she was still a little weak.

Yang shook her head: "Don't bother, it's getting late, just go home."

While speaking, she still glanced at the kneeling mother and son Yang Chenglian who were kneeling on the ground, and the corners of her lips curled up maliciously.

Yang Chenglian clearly sensed her real gaze, but he bit the bullet and endured it, never turning his head to meet her gaze.

The wives of officials at the banquet also came out one after another, but Yang finally didn't say anything in public, Qi Huan and the others supported her to leave.

Although Yang Chenglian is a man, but now he is getting old, and his body is weak, but Ning's body has been kept very strong, he can't move it no matter what.

Although there is Yang Pan'er next to her, but Yang Pan'er is also delicate and weak, and she was injured internally by Ning's dove stick just now, so she can't take care of herself...

His father and daughter guarded the unconscious Ning family, and no one from the palace who was in charge of evacuating the guests even came to help them.

Hundreds of people, all of them consciously avoided, as if they were avoiding the plague, they walked around their family and went out on their own.

Even if someone would look at him twice occasionally, it was because the colleagues who were at odds with Yang Chenglian took the opportunity to watch the joke.

Falling from the clouds to the quagmire, this gap is an unprecedented nightmare for Yang Chenglian, who has been steadily promoted in the officialdom for these years. If he didn't want to make it more embarrassing, he would almost have to bear it all in one go, and it will be over once and for all.

At this moment, they could only grit their teeth and hold on. When everyone had seen enough of the fun and left, they would find a way to leave.

And separated by a wall, outside the courtyard of Jinyang Hall, Yang's body was unwell and walked slowly. Although they were the first batch to come out, they were quickly overtaken by the guests pouring out from behind.

"There are too many people, let's wait at the side first." Gu Zhan looked around, considered the proposal, and then said to Qi Huan, "I'll ask someone to carry a shoulder for Mrs. Shizi's transportation."

Just as Mrs. Yang was about to say no, he settled several people by the side of the road before turning around and leaving in a hurry.

Although Qi Wenjing and his wife didn't want to bother others, and they were even more embarrassed to be hypocritical in the palace, but he went all the way, and he couldn't be told to make this trip in vain, and he could only wait patiently.

Yang Qingyun also came out with their husband and wife. At this time, everyone stood by the side of the road and did not speak.

Qi Huan looked back at him.

Yang Qingyun was also very sad, and even——

Whether it's him or Yang's, today's incident was not only safe and sound, but also a complete victory, but the faces of their aunt and nephew were still full of worries, and they didn't let go of it at all.

Seeing Qi Huan looking over, Yang Qingyun smiled at her.

After thinking about it, maybe she felt that she needed to be comforted more, so he raised his hand and rubbed the top of her hair vigorously twice.

Qi Huan tilted his head, avoiding his hand in disgust.

Yang Qingyun didn't say anything.

After a while, Qi Zhengyu, Qi Wenang and his son also walked out of the courtyard together with Mrs. Yu and Qi Xin.

Seeing Qi Wenjing's family standing here, Qi Zhengyu frowned in displeasure: "Still going out of the palace?"

Qi Wenjing quickly turned serious: "Oh, Mrs. Yang is not feeling well, let's take it easy."

As he said that, he told Qi Wenang: "It's getting late, second child, you should escort father and mother back first."

"En." Qi Wenang replied lightly, with no emotion on his face.

He and Qi Xin supported Shi Yu, but Shi Yu didn't know what kind of wind was blowing. When he passed by Qi Huan, he suddenly gave Qi Huan a fierce look: "Hmph!"

What happened in the courtyard just now didn't affect them anything, Qi Huan was even baffled by her stare, he didn't know how he offended this old woman again.

but--

She didn't care about such trivial matters today.

The crowd who went to the banquet gathered like a tide and stretched towards the direction of leaving the palace, forming a long stream of people.

Although they watched an earth-shattering drama, everyone on the way out of the palace was cautious and seldom said anything, so the atmosphere was a bit weird.

It wasn't until everyone had left that Gu Zhan left and returned, followed by a few little eunuchs carrying shoulders.

Qi Wenjing helped Mrs. Yang onto the shoulders, and the group left the palace together.

After leaving the palace gate, Yang Qingyun helped Yang Shi get into the carriage.

Qi Wenjing looked at Gu Zhan who was standing with his daughter, but his face was troubled: "Thanks to you coming back in time today, otherwise the matter might not be so easy to solve..."

Qi Huan and him haven't seen each other for many days, so it stands to reason that we should reunite after a long absence, but in the middle of the night——

You can't just throw your daughter to him!
But just after running out of people, now Qi Wenjing wants to drag his daughter away directly, he also thinks it's unreasonable.

Here he was in a dilemma, but it was Qi Huan who took the initiative and said: "Let my cousin accompany you to escort mother back first? It was thanks to the third uncle who testified for us at the banquet just now. He seems to have not come out yet. I will wait here." Say thank you to him and go."

Qi Wenjing felt that she was just looking for reasons to mess with Gu Zhan, but it was hard to point it out.

Gu Zhan also said: "My son, don't worry, I will send her back after seeing Third Master Qi."

Qi Wenjing was very afraid of his son-in-law-to-be, so he said nothing more, "Then you should also pay attention to safety when you go back."

He turned and got into the carriage.

Yang Qingyun was still standing beside the carriage and waiting.

Qi Huan glanced at him, Yang Qingyun smiled and waved: "Okay, I'll take my aunt and uncle back."

Watching them get into the car and leave, the remaining chariots, horses and sedan chairs outside the palace gate are sparse, not many.

Qi Huan looked away from a distance, turned to face Gu Zhan, looked up at him: "Did you come back here on purpose?"

The moonlight in the Mid-Autumn Festival is so bright that the sky and the earth can be illuminated as if it were daytime without using lanterns.

Gu Zhan lowered his eyes slightly and looked at her, but he was silent for a moment but asked instead: "This is what you want to ask me the most?"

Qi Huan knew what he meant.

When she first knew that Gu Zhan had gone to Yanling Pass at such a dangerous time in the south, she was really anxious, angry and worried, and these emotions have continued to this day.

but--

Just after he returned safely today, all his emotions were almost gone.

Thinking of Yanling Pass, she suddenly thought of her uncle whom she had never met.

His heart tightened, and just as he was about to speak, Qi Wenyan and Dali Siqing came out of the palace gate side by side.

The two quickly collected their minds, Qi Huan waited for Qi Wenyan to leave the palace gate, then took two quick steps to meet him: "Third Uncle."

Qi Wenyan glanced behind her and only saw Gu Zhan, not the Qi family, so he immediately frowned and ordered in a cold voice, "Go home immediately!"

Qi Huan: ...

You still have to listen to the elders' lessons, especially in front of outsiders.

When Qi Huan thanked him, he blocked him directly, and he could only lower his head obediently: "Yes."

Then, Qi Wenyan left with Dali Siqing.

Seeing her deflated, Gu Zhan paced up from behind, hugged her shoulders, and smiled lightly: "Let's go, it's really too late today."

Qi Huan felt very depressed.

When she was in a relationship, a group of people around her were guarded and staring at her, including that little Qi Yuanchen who could chime in and point fingers at her and Gu Zhan's affairs...

It's as if she is a love brain, and she doesn't know how to judge people by herself, and judge right from wrong!

She was feeling frustrated here, when she happened to see Yang Chenglian and Yang Pan'er helping the faltering Ning out from inside the palace gate.

Although Ning is nearly eighty years old, she has always been in good spirits and is not very old.

But tonight, after entering and exiting the palace, she seemed to have aged twenty years, and now she really looked like an old man on the verge of death.

Qi Huan was about to leave, but when he saw their family, he stopped firmly.

Yang Chenglian has lost his job now, and the concubine Wen in the palace is gone. Seeing that the palace gate is about to be closed, they have no reliance and dignity to stay inside...

So, even though all three of them saw Qi Huan, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue walking outside.

Yang Pan'er was the most confident, he hesitated for a moment, then Ning turned her head and gouged out her eyes.

She herself was so angry that she was dizzy and couldn't walk on her own, so she had to be supported by others. Yang Pan'er dragged her legs like this, so she couldn't walk.

Yang Pan'er remained silent, quickly lowered her eyes, gritted her teeth and continued to support her.

The whole family knew how to avoid her sharpness, so they were ready to turn a blind eye to Qi Huan, and seeing Gu Zhan standing with her and behaving intimately, they were so blocked that they wished they could be blind.

A family, head down and walk step by step.

"Master Yang, please stay!" Just as the two sides were about to pass by, Qi Huan spoke bluntly and stopped them.

Yang Chenglian knew he couldn't hide, so the family had to stop.

He turned his head and looked over with cold eyes: "Your Majesty who should be dealt with has already personally dealt with it, and those who should be punished have also been dealt with by the palace law. If your family is still dissatisfied, you can go to His Majesty again." Sue in front of me, what are you waiting for here?"

"It's true that everything that needs to be dealt with has been dealt with, and what needs to be settled has also been cleared up?" Qi Huan also responded with a cold and sarcastic expression.

She looked at Yang Pan'er first.

Yang Pan'er was also secretly watching her, but at this moment she shrank her neck and quickly lowered her eyes.

Qi Huan said: "Didn't you say that the matter started because you coveted Gu Shizi? But I didn't see you being punished!"

Yang Pan'er didn't dare to make a sound, and tried even harder to retract her head directly into her neck.

Her eldest sister was involved in this matter, the emperor just didn't bother to pay attention to an ant like her, now if Qi Huan or Gu Zhan refuses to let go, and goes to the imperial court or even Queen Gu to say something, she will definitely die .

Fortunately, Qi Huan didn't intend to drag her into the palace gate again, and then turned his eyes away to look at her father.

Yang Chenglian is upright and confident, after all, the emperor has indeed settled the matter fairly, and the Qi family should be satisfied.

He only thinks that Qi Huan is the little girl's competitive spirit, deliberately trying to hurt them.

But he didn't want to, Qi Huan gave him another sap when he spoke again.

Seeing the corner of the girl's lips curled up, she asked him with cold eyes: "Fifteen years ago, my uncle's family was weak, and you used your power and connections to assassinate my uncle. This is also a debt of life. Do you think you can pay it back?"

That incident has passed for so long that even Yang Chenglian himself completely let go of it, pretending it never happened.

Hearing this, his pupils shrank suddenly.

However, his subconscious reaction was to quickly take a look at Gu Zhan——

He is not afraid of Qi Huan, nor the Qi family, but he is afraid of Gu Zhan and the Gu family!
In case Gu Zhan believed Qi Huan's words, he helped Qi Huan reverse the case...

Even though he is confident that he has cut off all the clues and evidence, he is still afraid that someone will investigate!
Qi Huanyuan was just trying to trick him, but seeing his expression and reaction at this moment, he knew that it was a real deal.

Therefore, she also ignored Yang Chenglian, but looked away again, looked at the old lady Ning, with an incomparably romantic smile on her face, and said with a smile: "So, there is absolutely no relationship between our two families." It's not over yet, is it?"

Ning's cloudy eyes were almost poisoned, staring at her young and flamboyant face, with facial features and expressions that were very similar to Jia's back then.

Qi Huan was just expressing his attitude towards them, and after finishing speaking, he pulled Gu Zhan to turn around and walked away.

Ning's eyes behind her were still firmly fixed on her.

Her whole body was trembling uncontrollably.

The hand holding Yang Pan'er's arm, the hard nails dug into the opponent's flesh.

Yang Pan'er is already frightened now, tearing up in pain but dare not make a sound, only looking at her beggingly.

But Ning's eyes seemed to grow on Qi Huan.

Her chest was full of energy and blood, and her ears were buzzing. She heard the chatter and laughter between Qi Huan and Gu Zhan, but she couldn't hear what they were talking about.

Bloodshot eyes, blurred vision...

A moment later, a mouthful of old blood spurted out from her heart, and she fell down straight again.
