Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"My lord, your empress has already made things so clear, and Du Wenkai didn't do anything, why do you hate him so much?"

"Because of him." Defang hesitated to speak, and it took him a long time to tell Di Shoujie what he cared about most.

"The lonely king saw it with his own eyes, how could it be false!" Defang sat on the stone bench very angrily, "If it wasn't like this, how could the lonely king hate him so much!"

"My lord, there must be a misunderstanding on this matter, and the next official will ask clearly."

"It's all so clear, what else to ask, the lonely king doesn't want to know."

"My lord, you have to be sure. In case, the official said in case, if it is not what the lord thinks, then the entanglement in the lord's heart will not be solved."

"Brother, if you want to ask, just ask, the lonely king doesn't want to know at all." Defang got up, "The lonely king will go to the official department to ask what's going on."

Defang turned around and left the inner courtyard, and went straight to the Ministry of Officials in a sedan chair. Mu Peixiu said, "My lord, the transfer of Du Wenkai is based on the official conduct and the recent assessment decision of the third division. Mr. Qu from the Ministry of Punishment also proposed the same, so there is nothing wrong with it."

"What's the reason for that?"

"A major negligence occurred in a case handled by Du Wenkai, which almost caused a major accident. Fortunately, Mr. Qu found out in time. Moreover, Du Wenkai has been slack in his work these days, and he often arrives late at the criminal department. Mr. Qu was very upset, and the next officials convened the third division to discuss. A decision was finally made."

"So that's it. That is to say. Du Wenkai did make a mistake, and the transfer was a proper arrangement made according to the official assessment?"

"Yes, my lord."

Defang nodded, and returned to Nanqing Palace without asking any more questions. Defang explained to Concubine Di in the bedroom in the inner courtyard that Di Concubine didn't speak for a long time. Defang was so anxious that she was about to knock on the door. Fortunately, Linger came to invite After dinner, Concubine Di opened the door and came out, but Concubine Di didn't answer what Defang said, and went back to the bedroom to rest after dinner. Defang sat by the bed, "Ma'am, what I said is true, I asked Mu Shangshu from the Ministry of Officials, he said that Du Wenkai did make a mistake, and the three divisions decided to be transferred together, not what I told him to do."

Concubine Di didn't speak, Defang approached Concubine Di, "Ma'am, can you trust me? I didn't lie to you."

Concubine Di turned her back to Defang, and Defang said, "Ma'am, tell me, how can you trust me?"

Concubine Di just pulled the quilt, and Defang was so anxious that she wanted to cry, "Ma'am, I really didn't do it, you have to trust me and talk to me."

The whole night, Concubine Di didn't say a word, and Defang didn't sleep, and it was still the same the next day. Defang not only couldn't eat, but couldn't sleep either. She explained to Concubine Di over and over again, and finally asked her to "Madam , you just talk, even if it's my fault, you can scold me, it's been two days, and I'm almost dying of pain."

Seeing Concubine Di only doing her own thing, De Fang couldn't bear it any longer, and walked out of the inner courtyard, "Baili, you go to Di's mansion right away, and invite Master Di to come here."

"Yes, my lord." Baili hurried to invite Di Shoujie, and Defang went to the pharmacy. Jin Shangde was taking ancient medicine with him. When he saw that it was Defang, "My lord, why did you come to the pharmacy?"

"Well, it's not very comfortable. Please take your pulse." Defang sat weakly on the chair and held Defang's hand from time to time. "Grandpa, what's wrong with you?"

Defang hugged Zong Gu, "Grandpa is fine, Zong Gu, why didn't you go to play?"

"Grandson wants to see herbal medicine."
