The emperor's scheming: alluring the world

Chapter 128 The Battle Between the Eagle and the Eagle

Yunyu answered yes, and went, then Li Sister-in-law said to Qing'er: "Go and remind Ms Mu and Ms Guo, and tell them that the weather is getting colder, please be careful, don't catch the cold. "

Although Qing'er was puzzled by Li Meiying's behavior, she followed her advice, because she knew that as a maidservant, she didn't need to know the master's real intentions, as long as she carried out the master's orders thoroughly.

The three of Li Xueshang finally felt at ease after receiving Li Sister-in-law's words, and they were still in the mood to care for others, which proved that nothing happened when Emperor Cheng summoned them.

After another half an hour, Emperor Cheng and Wei Jinyang returned to Chengfu Hall, but Emperor Cheng did not mention Wu Shaoyou's reward. When the banquet was over, Emperor Cheng only ordered Wu Shaoyou to leave Beijing immediately and return to the army middle.The sudden turn of events shocked all the ministers. It was not until the second day when the news that the Hulong Pavilion had been destroyed by the flood was officially presented to Emperor Cheng in an excerpt, that they understood the reason why Wu Shaoyou did not receive a reward.

At the same time, Emperor Cheng handed over the Hulongge case to Wei Jinyang for full investigation in front of all his ministers. Regarding Emperor Cheng's actions, many courtiers privately believed that Emperor Cheng intended to spare Duke An. The crown prince was allowed to take full charge of the Hulong Pavilion without avoiding suspicion. After all, An Guogong was the crown prince's uncle, and the crown prince would not put his uncle in danger no matter what.

However, the courtiers had their own ideas, and no one had the courage to speak out what was in their hearts.Chengdi actually believed that Wei Jinyang would act impartially, and Wei Jinyang had no blood relationship with An Guogong at all, and even the Wu family had enmity with him, so how could he help the enemy who poisoned his biological mother!

After the imperial court, Wei Jinyang was about to leave the palace and go back to the mansion. Eunuch Wang beside Empress Wu had been waiting for a long time in front of the palace gate. Eunuch Wang bowed to Wei Jinyang kindly and said, "Greetings to His Royal Highness, best wishes to His Royal Highness .”

"Eunuch Wang is exempt." Wei Jinyang's eyes flashed with hatred, and he continued with his usual expression: "Eunuch Wang is waiting here, but is there something wrong?"

"Your Highness, the Empress has prepared His Highness's favorite lunch, and a special servant came to invite His Highness to the Central Palace to have a meal together. Your Highness said, I haven't seen His Highness for a long time, and I miss you very much." Eunuch Wang lowered his eyes and covered the eyes. A bright light spoke in a respectful tone.

Wei Jinyang raised his eyebrows, his eyes filled with strong sarcasm, and he said with a half-smile: "Oh, that's the case, Eunuch Wang will lead the way, this is what I've been through."

In the central palace, when Empress Wu heard the servant's voice, a calculating look of joy flashed in her eyes, and then she stood up and faced Wei Jinyang with a smile on her face.

"Greetings to the Empress, all blessings to the Empress." Wei Jinyang avoided Empress Wu without a trace, and saluted indifferently.

Empress Wu's face froze because of his address, and it took her a while to react, with a forced smile on her face but sadly said: "Yang'er, even though your mother has done many things wrong, she is still your mother, you Calling me a queen means you don’t intend to recognize me as a queen mother again?”

Seeing Empress Wu's hypocritical face, Wei Jinyang felt unspeakable boredom in his heart, but said calmly on his face: "The queen called me here, it must be for the affairs of Duke An! The queen doesn't have to do it for An Guo I beg you, I will deal with the matter of Hulong Pavilion fairly. If Duke An didn't do anything back then, he didn't have to do unnecessary things. If he did something back then, he would have to accept the punishment he deserved. I'm done here. , I will leave now."

After Wei Jinyang finished speaking, before Queen Wu could speak, he saluted, turned around and strode away from the main hall of the Central Palace.Empress Wu looked at Wei Jinyang's leaving back, and clenched her hands hidden in her sleeves tightly.

Eunuch Wang waited at the side, Wei Jinyang's words made him more and more frightened, but he was still a little clever, as soon as Wei Jinyang left, he signaled all the maids serving in the palace to retreat, and only he and Wu were left in the palace. When the queen was two, he stepped forward cautiously and said, "Your Majesty, don't be angry, His Royal Highness must be unintentional."

"You don't have to speak for him!" Empress Wu gritted her teeth and said, feeling very unwilling after thinking about it, she turned around and threw the jade carving on the table beside her to the ground and scolded angrily: "You bastard who is not familiar with you!" , if he is still useful, I will kill him immediately!"

Eunuch Wang was listening, even more terrified, wanting the life of His Highness the Crown Prince?I'm afraid it's not that easy, he's lived his whole life, and he's seen a lot of people, no matter what, an old eagle can't compete with an eagle whose wings have grown hard.

However, Eunuch Wang has followed Empress Wu for many years, and he knows that Empress Wu is high-spirited and would never admit the fact that he is old anyway. He would not be so stupid to touch such a bad luck.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry. Since the Crown Prince can't be repaired here, this old slave thinks that your Majesty should find a way to mend the mother-child relationship with the Fifth Prince. After all, the Fifth Prince is your own and the only candidate for the throne." Wang Wang The father-in-law is a fine person, and at this time, he timely shifted the topic to the fifth prince.

When Empress Wu heard this, she felt a headache. After all, her son was the most important thing, so she had to put aside the affairs of Duke An and start thinking about how to help Wei Haoyou regain military power.

After she pondered for a long time, she said to Wang Gonggong: "You go to inform Xijiang and let them create some turmoil, so that Hao'er can be legitimately sent back to Xijiang."

After receiving the order, Eunuch Wang breathed a sigh of relief, saluted and hurried down to make arrangements.

When Wei Jinyang left the palace, he went straight to Princess Yingsu's Mansion, and entered through the main entrance generously. Li Meiying was admiring the autumn chrysanthemums outside the pavilion in the garden. When she learned that Wei Jinyang was coming, she did not move. , reached out to pick up the scented tea on the side and took a sip.

Wei Jinyang entered the gazebo and sat down on the seat opposite to Li Meiying. After Yunyu served him tea, he said with a smile: "I heard the maid said that you were admiring the chrysanthemums. Looking at it now, it is indeed from your family." The chrysanthemums are blooming well."

Hearing this, Li Meiying glanced at Yunyu lightly with peachy eyes, Yunyu understood, and calmly sent away all the maidservants serving in the gazebo, while she and Qing'er stayed outside the gazebo.

But Li Meizhen didn't know that the gesture he made with his eyes just now, in the eyes of Wei Jinyang who was opposite him, had an indescribable charm. He could only feel a soft little hand scratching him in his heart, which made him unable to help himself. wanted to be close to her.

Li Meizhen didn't notice that someone had sexual thoughts again, but after making sure that no one would eavesdrop, she looked at Wei Jinyang with peace of mind, but when her eyes met his hot ones, she only felt She was suffocated, and her heart beat suddenly out of rhythm. Knowing that her abnormality was caused by his eyes, Li Meiying moved her eyes away in a panic, and said somewhat unnaturally: "You have a good place to enjoy chrysanthemums." , why use this as a cover, just tell me if you have anything to say!"
