Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 303 With Soldiers and Horses in Hand, Things Can Be Done
Everyone was startled and hurriedly turned their heads away.

It was none other than their commander, General Wang Shaoji of Youtunwei, who spoke.

I saw him sneering and said: "The people who really caused your brothers to be knifed and exiled to ransack their homes are still living well, but you only think about these Jiangdu palace guards who have never been able to get ahead all day long." Is it useful to ask for trouble?"

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.

One of the imperial guards asked cautiously: "General, tell me—who is the person who really harmed us?"

Wang Shaoji glanced at him.

Fu Jiang, another general following behind him, immediately said: "You guys don't know yet, in fact, right after the incident happened, the general went to meet His Majesty and asked to punish Jiangdu Palace defenders, Your Majesty Originally, I also agreed. But—”

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly asked, "But what?"

"However, someone dissuaded His Majesty."

"who is it?"

Wang Shaoji glanced at them, and then slowly said: "That's the young lady of the Yuwen family who is hidden in the deep palace by His Majesty, Shang Ruyi."

"..."

"Because of her, His Majesty did not deal with the guards of the Jiangdu Palace, but severely punished our Imperial Guards."

Upon hearing this name, the members of the Imperial Guard frowned.

In fact, they were not very interested in this woman. Although back in Yanmen County, the emperor carried her injured all the way back to the government office in front of everyone, everyone was very excited, and they talked about it for a while, but After the emperor cut off a few people's tongues, everyone was made an example of it, and they didn't dare to mention it again. After a long time, they gradually forgot about it.

This time, this woman obviously did not follow south, but suddenly appeared in Jiangdu Palace, and was put in the inner palace by the emperor "Golden House Cangjiao". Everyone chewed her again, but what they said was nothing more than Fengyue thing.

But now Wang Shaoji told everyone that it was because of her that the emperor ordered the imperial guards to be punished.

Immediately, someone said angrily: "Damn, what is that woman, she dared to speak nonsense in front of the emperor, causing our brother to be beheaded and sent to exile."

"She is the young wife of the Yuwen family, and the Yuwen family doesn't get along with us."

"That's right, don't people from Yuwen's family cause us little trouble?"

Seeing everyone scolding me at every word you say, Wang Shaoji and Fu Jiang looked at each other, and Fu Jiang said: "Not only that, but when we were patrolling, we also saw that the young lady and Jiangdu palace guards When the deputy commander met, the two secretly said something, and they seemed to be very familiar with each other."

Hearing this, everyone became even more angry.

"So, she is deliberately favoring the defenders of Jiangdu Palace!"

"With a woman like her by the emperor's side, can those of us in the Imperial Guard live in peace?"

……

Seeing that everyone was getting more and more angry, cursing at Shang Ruyi, Wang Shaoji turned around with a cold smile and left.

Taking advantage of the night, he returned to his residence, and when he was about to go back to his room to rest, he caught a glimpse of the light still on in the study next to him. After thinking about it, he opened the door and walked in.

He doesn't come to this study often, nor is he used to the strong smell of ink in the room, because he doesn't like reading since he was a child. Reading is almost grown up in books.

At this moment, hearing the sound of him pushing the door, the person sitting in front of the candlestick holding a book and reading slowly raised his head.

The shining candlelight illuminates a face that is very similar to Wang Shaoji, with the same high cheekbones and hanging eyes, but the whole person looks more bookish than Wang Shaoji, and because of his haggard demeanor, it gives people Feelings seem benign and harmless, making it easy to trust.

He is Wang Shaoji's brother, the Secretary of the Provincial Shaojian - Wang Shaoqiu.

Although the two have a mother and a compatriot, and they have a good relationship, Wang Shaoqiu has been weak and sick since he was a child. Compared with being in the army for a few years, he won military merits, was successfully promoted to a general, and became the elder brother of the emperor's confidant. Frustrated, unable to serve in the army because of his weak health, he had worked in the Ministry of Rites for several years before, and took a rest due to illness. It was not until his health improved a while ago that he entered the Secretary's Department. This time he was able to follow the emperor south smoothly.

He said, "Brother, you are back."

Seeing him, Wang Shaoji smiled a little, walked over and said, "Your method is useful."

"Oh?"

Wang Shaoqiu originally planned to continue reading with his head down, but when he heard this, he raised his head from the book again, only to see Wang Shaoji excitedly said: "I just mentioned a few words to my subordinates, and now, they are all angry at that Shang Ruyi has gone."

"..."

"Hmph, this bitch has embarrassed me several times before. This time, I can't let her continue to show off like that."

"..."

"While Yu Wenye is not here, I must make her look good!"

Wang Shaoqiu glanced at him, lowered his head lightly, and said, "Brother, if you can only see one woman in your eyes, if you try your best to argue with one woman, then your road will not be long. "

Wang Shaoji frowned upon hearing this: "What do you mean?"

Wang Shaoqiu was silent for a while, closed the book and put it down slowly, then looked up at him: "I asked my brother to provoke the dissatisfaction of the imperial guards, not just to let them deal with that Shang Ruyi. This woman is just a pawn Life and death have no value or meaning at all except to make you happy, brother."

Wang Shaoji's brows frowned even tighter: "It's not to deal with Shang Ruyi, then you—whom are you going to deal with?"

Wang Shaoqiu looked up at him, and there was a cold light in those slender eyes.

Wang Shaoji felt a little uneasy in his heart. Although he was known as a frivolous son in the world, he usually liked to bully goodness and oppress goodness, and even framed Zhongliang in the court, but his evil deeds did not stop there; , In fact, he has always known that his brother looks weak and harmless, but he has bigger ideas in his heart than anyone else. Even, compared to himself, his thoughts are more serious and his methods are more poisonous.

It's just that he never saw blood on his hands.

Hearing his words now, Wang Shaoji faintly felt that his purpose of letting himself say those words to anger his subordinates was not simple.

So he asked again: "What else are you going to do?"

"..."

Wang Shaoqiu didn't answer him immediately, but looked at him silently for a long time, and then asked, "Brother, do you want to stay in Jiangdu forever?"

Wang Shaoji immediately said: "Of course not."

"..."

"Our family is in the north. We moved from Daxing City to Dongdu before, and our muscles and bones have been hurt. This time, we are not familiar with the place when we come to the south. If we stay here all the time, it will hurt our muscles and bones even more." , we have become helpless lonely ghosts!"

"..."

"Besides, those gentry in the south always seem to be fighting with us for power, but we can't let them do what they want."

"I'll ask brother again, you don't want to stay in Jiangdu, but what do you think His Majesty thinks?"

"His Majesty?"

Mentioning this, Wang Shaoji's face darkened again: "Now he hides in the inner palace every day, drinks and dances swords, and even engages in some shameful affairs with that bitch woman, why would he even think about going back to the north again."

"Then, do you dare to persuade His Majesty to return to the Eastern Capital?"

"Ji Nayan before, and those from the Ministry of Rites, those who killed and demoted, who would dare to go?"

Wang Shaoqiu nodded: "That's right."

Wang Shaoji was taken aback: "What's right?"

Wang Shaoqiu said: "Persuasion, persuasion can't be done; stay, can't stay, then the only thing we can do now, what should we do, brother still don't understand?"

"..."

"Brother, soldiers and horses are the most precious in troubled times, not only because soldiers and horses can protect themselves in the chaos of war, but more importantly, at some critical moments, with soldiers and horses in hand, things can be done."

Wang Shaoji stared at him blankly, after a while, a light flashed in his eyes, and he understood immediately.

"You, do you want to—"

Wang Shaoji was startled and terrified, he almost jumped up, and he didn't dare to say a word after that, he swallowed it abruptly, and looked at Wang Shaoqiu with a terrified expression.

He pointed at Wang Shaoqiu with one hand, his fingertips trembled, his throat was stuck for a long time, and then he said in a hoarse voice: "You, you are so brave!"

At this moment, Wang Shaoqiu suddenly said: "Who?"

Wang Shaoji was startled again, and hurriedly followed his gaze to look behind him, only to realize that he hadn't closed the door when he just came in, and a slim figure flashed outside the door and walked in slowly.

I saw that this beauty was wearing a green dress, and she was walking slowly. Although she only walked a few steps, her willow waist was so impressive, and there was a burst of refreshing body fragrance wafting in the wind. Although Wang Shaoji was just scared out of her She was covered in cold sweat, but when she saw her, she was a little fascinated.

This beauty is none other than his concubine——Luxiang.

I saw this charming beauty slowly coming in from the outside, and said with a smile: "Second Young Master has good ears, you heard me just now."

Wang Shaoqiu frowned: "What are you doing here?"

Lu Xiao glanced at him with a smile, then glanced at Wang Shaoji at the side, pouted and said aggrievedly: "The concubine was waiting for the young master in the room, until just now, she finally heard the sound of the young master's footsteps, but refused to turn back." house. I thought it was a vixen from somewhere that lost the young master, but luckily I came to see it, and it was the second young master."

Wang Shaoqiu was not very good at dealing with women, so he frowned and stopped talking.

As soon as Wang Shaoji saw her, his whole body was already feverish, and he didn't care to say anything more to his brothers. He went up to meet her and embraced her. Come on, I'm busy now."

After speaking, he returned to the room with the green silk.

After a while, some unbearable and piercing sounds came from the night.

Wang Shaoqiu sat in the study, quietly looking at the book in his hand, but he didn't turn a page until late at night.
