Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 566
"Old Seven, do you have any ideas?" Zhou Li looked at Yan Mu expectantly.

The corner of Yan Mu's mouth twitched, "You want me to protect Madam Hou's pregnancy?"

"But you are capable!"

"I'm not good at it."

Zhou Lihuai couldn't help but sighed again, "Oh, by the way, you saved me, and I would like to say thank you to you."

Liu Yunxiang snorted, "Your thank you is too perfunctory."

"My life is still hanging in the balance, so don't worry about it." Zhou Lihuai drank a cup of tea and said, "Then Madam Hou cries all day long, how can she keep the baby like this."

"What does the emperor say?"

Zhou Lihuai leaned over and said in a low voice: "The matter between him and Madam Hou has been revealed, and his face has been very gloomy for the past two days. He is sending someone to investigate who leaked the news. Be careful, and don't find out about you."

Yan Mu nodded, and said again: "It's actually easy to save your life."

"Oh? How do you say it?" Zhou Lihuai listened attentively.

"Mrs. Hou is always crying. There must be evil spirits in her body. Anyway, Zhuangzi is very close to the Taoist Temple of Yunxia Mountain, and the Daoist Hongxuan in the temple is profound. If he is asked to drive away evil spirits for Mrs. Hou, maybe Mrs. Hou will stop crying. The fetus can also be saved."

Zhou Lihuai raised his eyebrows, "You're not smiling, are you?"

Yan Mu shook his head, "You have to show the emperor that you are not good at medicine. After all, you are not as experienced as those old imperial doctors in the imperial hospital. Please ask the emperor to let all the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital protect Mrs. Hou's pregnancy. If you really can't save it, the emperor will not seriously kill her." There are so many imperial physicians."

Zhou Lihuai's eyes lit up, "This is a method, if that's the case, then there is no need to ask Taoist Hongxuan to do it."

"Yes." Yan Mu twitched his lips, "He is a celebrity in front of the emperor, with him standing in front of him, what are you afraid of?"

Zhou Lihuai nodded hurriedly, "You're right, you're right, I'll do it now!"

Saying that, Zhou Lihuai hurriedly ran out, ran to the door and shouted back: "Lao Qi, I'll buy you a drink later!"

After Zhou Lihuai left that day, Liu Yunxiang was a little puzzled: "The last sentence, let all the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital give Madam Hou a baby. This will indeed help Zhou Lihuai, but the first sentence asked Hongxuan to do it. You have your own purpose, right?"

"Well, bring Hongxuan in."

"Why?"

"I want to use the emperor's trust in him and ask him to help me achieve one thing."

Jinyan yelled that it was time for dinner, but Liu Yunxiang didn't ask any more questions.

"Let's eat."

Yan Mu responded, seeing Liu Yunxiang turn around and walk out, "Tonight..."

"What?" Liu Yunxiang looked back at Yan Mu, "What's going on tonight?"

Yan Mu pursed his lips, "Are you going back to this room to sleep?"

Liu Yunxiang was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head, "No."

"Why don't I go back to the middle courtyard, you and two children are squeezed into a room, and it won't be comfortable to sleep."

Liu Yunxiang sighed lightly, "Okay."

Yan Mu frowned, he thought Liu Yunxiang would not agree, but she agreed.

After dinner, Yan Mu went back to the middle courtyard. Liu Yunxiang took the two children to play for a while, and then put them to bed.

"Mother, why doesn't Daddy live in this courtyard anymore?" Yan'er asked.

"Father and mother had a quarrel." Xingyi said adultly.

"Do father and mother also quarrel, why?"

"Adults, children don't ask."

"Does sister know?"

"I don't want to know. Adults have small minds. They don't want the two of us to fight and make up after a while."

"Sister is right, adults are narrow-minded."

The two children lay on their respective beds, had a chat, and then fell asleep with the quilt covered.Liu Yunxiang was so funny that she didn't have time to speak.

Back in the West Room, Liu Yunxiang saw the cloak hanging in front of the bed. It belonged to Yan Mu. Now that it's cold at night, he needs to wear it when he goes out.She took the cloak and went to the middle courtyard.

When she came to the gate of the courtyard, she saw Yan Mu standing in the middle of the courtyard with his hands behind his back, and a person standing behind him, reporting something.

Liu Yunxiang took a closer look, isn't this Jiang Yuan!

He came back from West Vietnam?Have you found the antidote for Xiaoyao San?

She was about to go in when Jiang Yuan took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Yan Mu.

"Your Highness, Chongming's news is accurate, we have found the antidote for Xiaoyao San."

Yan Mu took the small porcelain bottle and held it up in front of him, "After taking this antidote, can I remember everything?"

"Yes."

Yan Mu stared at the antidote for a long time, then put it into his arms.

"Your Highness, why don't you take it?"

Yan Mu said lightly: "It's not the time yet."

"Madam must be in a hurry."

Yan Mu glanced at the door and said, "Wait a little longer."

Knowing that his master had ideas, Jiang Yuan stopped persuading him.

"You set off for Luzhou as soon as possible, and I want to tell you something."

"Yes."

Liu Yunxiang didn't go in, took back his foot from the threshold, turned around and went back to his courtyard.He said to let her wait a little longer, then wait a little longer.

Early the next morning, the emperor summoned several ministers to his study.

Yan Mu went later, and when he entered the door, he saw the emperor picked up a teacup, smashed it with the hot water in it, and smashed it on the forehead of Shangguan Xu who was kneeling on the ground.

The emperor's face was full of anger, so this blow was very powerful. After Yan Mu saluted, he lowered his head and glanced, and Shangguan Xu's forehead was bleeding immediately.But he didn't dare to wipe it, he just crawled down.

"Your Majesty, this old slave is not good at doing things, and he failed to restrain his subordinates. Please forgive me."

Yan Mu lowered his eyes, knowing that the emperor was so angry because he found out that the scandal between him and Mrs. Hou was leaked from Xichang.If someone else was replaced, the emperor would have ordered him to be killed.

Because of this scandal, he lost all face. He has not gone to court for two consecutive days because he was afraid of being criticized by the officials.

Shangguan Xu was wronged for this crime, but the news was indeed leaked from Xichang. Instead of defending himself and making the emperor even more angry, he should attribute the crime to lax governance and let the emperor calm down first.

The emperor looked at Shangguan Xu whose face was covered in blood from his slap. After all, it was the old man beside him, and he was still his right-hand man, so he couldn't really kill him.

"Check carefully and find out who leaked it, and you must not let it go lightly." The emperor said.

"Yes, the old slave must give the emperor an explanation."

"Okay, get up."

Shangguan Xu was about to get up, but his legs seemed to be weak, so he fell forward, and Yan Mu quickly helped him up.

"Overlord be careful."

Shangguan Xu hurriedly turned around and saluted: "Thank you, Your Highness Qi."

The eyes of the two exchanged briefly, Yan Mu was sly, and Shangguan Xu was gloomy.

The other ministers seemed to be counting the time, and they didn't come in until the emperor finished lecturing Shangguan Xu, obviously for fear of offending the Holy Wrath.Yan Mu lowered his eyes, when he walked by just now, none of these people stopped him, a group of old foxes.

"In the past two days, I was not feeling well, so I did not go to court, but there are some political affairs that cannot be delayed. First of all, Zhang Zhouqian, the governor of Youzhou, relapsed from his old injury, and he was too old to do what he wanted, so he told me to resign. And Youzhou It's an important military town, so we can't live without a commander, do you have any recommendations?" the emperor asked.

A minister said: "I don't know who Governor Zhang has recommended?"

"Youzhou Deputy General Cheng An."

"I think that since it was recommended by Governor Zhang, and he is the deputy general guarding Youzhou, he is familiar with Youzhou's military affairs, so he is a good candidate."

Another minister echoed: "This General Cheng has also made a lot of military exploits, so he is indeed the most suitable candidate."

Several other ministers recommended Cheng An, but the emperor seemed a little dissatisfied. He looked up and saw Yan Mu standing there without saying a word.

"Old Qi, do you think Cheng Anke is suitable to be the governor of Youzhou?"
