first minister

Chapter 154 Xia Jingyun Gets Out of Trouble
Jingzhao House.

The dignitaries outside the mansion have all gone home.

Everyone has a big family, a big business, a high position and a high authority. Just look at the excitement, and it's not a big deal. Why wait here so much!
But after they left, the shopkeeper of the small tea shop still couldn't get a rest, because there were still a group of attendants of these big men sitting in the room.

These people are nodding and bowing servants in front of big men, but in the eyes of ordinary people like the shopkeeper, they are real big men.

"Haah~"

A man yawned, "Are we waiting so stupidly?"

The people on the side smiled and said, "Otherwise? Why don't you go into the palace and ask?"

"That won't work, I still have a good friend in Fenghe Pavilion!"

"Hey, I heard that Ningbing girl in the Fenghe Pavilion is very popular recently? Have you communicated with her?"

"This Ning Bing girl is really good, but how did she suddenly become the top card of the Fenghe Pavilion, and even overwhelmed the names of so many other courtesans?"

"You guys don't understand this, isn't it because of such a big incident in Sishui Prefecture, everyone wants to find out for themselves. If they come and go again and again, they will become popular!"

A group of men deviate from the topic of chatting, and the direction of deviation is always the same.

It has always been that the words are divided into two ends, and they are logical.

Fortunately, there were still serious people in the field, paying close attention to the movement outside Jingzhao Mansion, and a figure running on horseback from the direction of Miyagi appeared in the field of vision.

"I'm coming!"

Only then did everyone break free from their joyous expressions, and all looked sideways.

I saw the man who was clearly dressed as a servant in the palace reined in his horse at the gate of Jingzhao Mansion, and then hurried in.

In the lobby of Jingzhao Mansion, Han Xueming, who is destined to be sleepless tonight, is cuddling with a brazier with his staff, chatting about the direction of tonight, and drying off those sad blood and tears in the past,
"My lord, what do you think will happen tonight?"

"It's hard to say! Mr. Xia occupies the principle, and the British public occupies the power, but this world, especially this court, has never been a place where reason can be done!"

"Behind Mr. Xia, there is also Empress Defei!"

"Concubine De." Han Xueming sighed, "Concubine De has a good reputation, but in the outer court, how many people recognize her name! Concubine Shu is known to be domineering, but there are not so many people who are shy. If this time can make the British public feel embarrassed, maybe there will be truly capable people who dare to vote."

Speaking of this, Han Xueming was stunned suddenly, and immediately said with emotion: "I still underestimated this Mr. Xia, if he had already thought of this level at that moment, then his future is really limitless."

The staff was stunned, obviously he was making a plan, why did he feel that his brain could not keep up with his master, "My lord, what do you mean?"

Just as Han Xueming was about to explain, the guards outside the door rushed over, "My lord, there are people coming from the palace again!"

Han Xueming didn't bother to say anything, and immediately got up, and just as he walked to the door, Jin Zhong also walked in.

Han Xueming smiled and complimented: "Eunuch Jin, Your Majesty really values ​​you!"

Jin Zhong smiled and nodded at him, and then his expression became serious, "Your Majesty ordered."

Han Xueming hurriedly bowed his waist and cupped his hands to show respect.

"Captain Zhou Zhenwei of the Jingzhao Mansion took bribes and broke the law, harmed Zhongliang. He was ordered to be deprived of his official position immediately, put in prison, and handed over to a judge for punishment. Innocent people, be released immediately."

Did the British Duke really suffer?

Surprised, it didn't stop Han Xueming from shouting, "The minister receives the oracle!"

After reading the oral instructions, Jin Zhong also recovered his smile, "Master Han, let's go now, we can't make that one wait any longer."

"Eunuch Jin, please."

The prison was filled with rancidity and filth.

Only Xia Jingyun's cell was cleaned by the jailer, and there were good wine and food beside him.

Xia Jingyun was at ease, sitting calmly.

In fact, I panicked a lot.

If his step is successful, needless to say, it will be a successful break, but if it is not successful, it will really make the situation even worse.

The crux of the problem is that he has never seen the emperor who stands at the center of the world's power.

It's just that I had a chat with my elder sister in Sishui Prefecture, and later I made some deduction with Su Yuanshang who had met the emperor.

But there is always a lack of practical and clear perception. Without this thing, it is very likely to make mistakes in judgment.

Even from the power structure, from the direction of the court, from the age of His Majesty, from all aspects, there is a [-]% possibility that His Majesty will take over his sword, but there is also a slight possibility that His Majesty will lose his mind?

Calculating the time, it should have been decided by now, right?
No matter what, someone from the palace should come and let him go, but whether to invite him out or lead him out is another matter.

There was a sound of footsteps, followed by the sound of chains being opened. Xia Jingyun hurriedly closed his eyes, pretending to be more like the calm and breezy temperament on his body.

"Master Xia?"

Jin Zhong stood in front of the cell door, smiling apologetically, "The cause of tonight has been found out. It was Zhou Zhenwei, the captain of the Jingzhao Mansion, who corrupted the law and harmed Zhongliang. His Majesty has ordered him to be deprived of his official position and handed over to a minister for questioning."

Han Xueming nodded and said, "Regarding this matter, our Jingzhao Mansion will issue official documents and announcements later, and we must return Mr. Xia's innocence."

Xia Jingyun sighed slightly, the questioning really only went to the captain, and did not involve the Lu family.

But he is not stupid, if it involves the Lu family, it is not something that a small Jingzhao Mansion can solve.

It is impossible for the center to invent the purpose.

At most, some exchanges and games were carried out under the water.

take it easy!

After all, this round has had a good start. Next, it depends on whether I can share a piece of the meat he cut off from the Lu family from His Majesty.

Thinking of this, he stood up and bowed respectfully to the two of them, with a sincere expression on his face, "I have been wronged tonight, and my heart is filled with grief and indignation. It is inevitable that I will be a little self-willed. I have caused trouble for the two adults, and please forgive me."

Jin Zhong smiled and said: "Young Master Xia is serious, your Majesty knows all about your grievances."

As soon as this signal was released, Han Xueming naturally didn't dare to take it too seriously, and said with a smile: "It is indeed as my father-in-law said, speaking of my Jingzhao Mansion, there are such scumbags, and it is me, Jingzhaoyin, who should apologize to Mr. Xia."

Xia Jingyun smiled and said: "If we want to talk, there is no need to stand in this prison. I will set up a drink in Mingyulou some other day, and then I will apologize to you two."

"Yes, yes, let's go out first."

With that said, the three of them walked out together.

Not long after, Zhou Duwei, who was shackled, was ruthlessly shoved into the cell where Xia Jingyun had just sat in by his former subordinates.

Outside Jingzhao Mansion, Su Yuanshang, Bai Yunbian and others were sitting in the carriage, staring intently at the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion.

When something like this happened, and it was still at the banquet organized by him, Wang Ruoshui had no choice but to wait.

At first, he was somewhat depressed.

This is the current situation of Concubine De's family in the outer court. Any captain of the Jingzhao Mansion would dare not buy face and directly arrest Concubine De's righteous brothers, let alone them.

When someone else hugs the thigh, gets promoted, gets rich, and shows off his power, but he hugs Concubine De's thigh by himself, he is hugging loneliness!
If it wasn't for him being somewhat ashamed, and Xia Jingyun had helped him resolve a catastrophe, after what happened tonight, maybe he would have to think about changing his family.

Sitting with a sad face for a while, he watched the people coming from the palace and went straight into the Jingzhao Mansion. He wondered if the Empress Defei had moved His Majesty, or she had rescued him.

In any case, the empress is still benevolent, worthy of this virtue.

But not long after, the servant actually left, alone!

He was stunned when he saw that the third son of the Lu family had also left.

But Mr. Xia didn't come out!
He confusedly asked Mr. Su who looked very powerful and calm, but the other party shook his head and told them to wait and see solemnly.

About an hour later, he was dozing off, and was awakened by the movement in the carriage.

He looked out along the curtain of the car, and saw a servant riding a horse running towards Jingzhao Mansion.

"It turned out to be a dream!"

He turned his head and fell asleep again, but he heard Su Yuanshang laugh like he was relieved, "It's done! It's really done!"

Wang Ruoshui rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked confused, "Mr. Su, what happened?"

Su Yuanshang looked at Chen Fugui who was wrapping clothes and squatting at the base of the wall with the guards beside the white clouds outside the carriage, "Brother Chen, get up and get ready to welcome the young master."

Wang Ruoshui blinked, and suddenly slapped herself.

hiss!
It hurts so much, it's not a dream!
As soon as he stopped, he found that everyone around him looked at him with strange eyes.

Bai Yunbian asked suspiciously: "You seem to be very sad to hear this news?"

In front of the gate of Jingzhao Mansion, Jin Zhong said with a smile: "Young Master Xia, at three o'clock tomorrow, the maidservant will come to pick you up at Jiang'anhou Mansion, don't forget."

Xia Jingyun nodded, "Eunuch, don't worry, I won't let Eunuch escape for nothing this time."

Everyone smiled, Han Xueming said with a smile: "Young Master Xia, it's late at night, I will send some guards to escort you back to your residence."

Xia Jingyun shook his head, "No, I have someone to pick it up."

As he spoke, he pointed to not far away, under the dim light of the carriage lantern, there were several waiting figures standing.

Xia Jingyun bid farewell to the two and walked over.

Bai Yun pulled him to check, Xia Jingyun smiled, but looked at Su Yuanshang, nodded, "Don't worry, it's fine, everything is in plan."

Bai Yunbian immediately realized something was wrong, and quickly asked: "What plan?"

Xia Jingyun put his arms around his shoulders and said in a low voice, "The plan to divide the meat."

"Let's go everyone, it's cold and bitter, please wait for a long time, go back to the house to warm up a few pots of wine, let's talk about the road ahead."
