The dark-bellied prime minister's cute wife

Chapter 202 Meeting Too Late

Yan Ke stared at the bowl of wine for a while before saying: "I thought that if you succeed, you will be prosperous and rich, and if you fail, you will be alone. Now it seems that it is really naive."

"Being alone, in this officialdom, who can be alone? But don't worry, with our brothers around, we will not teach you to really die." He carried the edge of the bowl, obviously he had done the worst. planned.

"How about the Minister of the Ministry of War?" Yan Ke changed the subject, the last thing that can't be done in the world is that you can't give the person you love, the best protection.

"That old guy Zhang Quan secretly opened Hongxiufang. Now the people in Hongxiufang have been recruited. After the emperor came back from the princess mansion, he lost his temper. He ransacked all the family members of the Zhang family, and even sent a letter from the minister of the Ministry of War to intercede. He didn’t even move, and now that the minister of the Ministry of War has been overthrown, the emperor is relieved.” In his opinion, the emperor’s first priority is to deal with those ministers who hold military power, and Yan Ke has already done this. The servant is also down, who is next?Minister of the Ministry of War?Or that old general Dugu?Or, is it the Major General Dugu Zhan?
"If the Minister of the Ministry of War is short, the Minister of the Ministry of War will make up for it soon. This move is useless, but it's just avenging my wife." Yan Keyun was calm, he held the wine bowl in his hand, calmly, and said to him The people who met were a little dumbfounded: "I just said, how could something related to the opening of the Red Sleeve Square by the Minister of the Ministry of War come out? It turned out that you ordered it? Speaking of which, I suddenly felt that if you don't want to go to this prison, you may be Even the emperor is sorry for you."

Yan Ke drank a few sips of wine, his body warmed up a lot, he loosened the fox fur cloak on his body, and said calmly to the dumbfounded person opposite: "I'm just a guilty minister, not even as good as a commoner, so how can I be alone?"

"Originally, the Yu Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion were deadly enemies with different views. The Yu Taifu ruled the country with benevolence and righteousness. The prime minister first advocated the rule of law. Now Miss Yu seems to be living in the mansion of His Highness the Princess. Now everyone in the world is Bet, bet whether the new emperor will rule the country by law or by benevolence, tell me, should I make a bet too?" Holding the bowl, he looked at Yan Ke with a smile, as if he still had that suave and suave look. attitude.

Yan Ke said lightly: "Then you take out all the money your wife left with Tang Zhi and put it on the rule of law."

"Why? It's also said in the book that if the world has been settled, we should spread benevolence to appease the army with the heart of comforting the people. Is this rule of law a bit mysterious?" How many people handle cases today not for money and face?Who cares if you rule the law or not.

"There are rules to make a square, and the size of the square depends on how strong the rules are enforced. If the emperor is a wise king, he will know the benefits of ruling the country by law." Yan Ke lowered his eyes slightly, and suddenly remembered a day Lan Shan was reading scriptures to him, she fell asleep while reading, her dazed expression when she woke up was very cute.

"That's true. Although the Southern Jin Dynasty covers the largest area, it is far inferior to the other two countries in terms of governance execution. Once there is a fight, without the help of the Dugu family and the Tang family, I'm afraid that the Southern Jin Dynasty will really suffer from the enemy." As a minister of the Ministry of Punishment, he began to talk about the affairs that the Ministry of War was in charge of, and he talked a lot, but he felt that it was nothing more than talking about military affairs on paper.

Yan Ke took the sprinkles, like drinking water, one bowl after another. When he was in a bad mood, he liked to drink heavily. When he was in a good mood, he would sip tea carefully and taste the wine warmly. How could it be like this now.

"Don't blame yourself too much. Your Highness has an accident this time, and you are not by her side." He looked at Yan Ke, originally wanting to comfort her; but he unexpectedly poked his sore spot.

"I thought I could protect her, but I never thought that she is protecting me now, prime minister? Today's prime minister is not even as good as a commoner." He looked at the wine bowl in his hand, a little self-deprecating.

Although the original power of the Prime Minister’s Mansion is still there, but now that he is not the Prime Minister, he has nothing to do with it. As for his father’s family, his father’s family has long since fallen, and both his parents have died of illness early on, so he will take refuge in him. I became prime minister first, now I look back at the suffering I have suffered, then I look at the glory and wealth I once enjoyed, and now I look at the dungeon under my feet, but it is nothing more than that.

"Fortunately, Your Highness is fine."

Yan Ke stared at the reflection in the wine, and said to Su Yunbo: "You don't understand." You don't understand, when he saw the feeling of falling into the ice pool when Tian Lanshan was injured, he couldn't understand it either. , how much he felt sorry for that silly girl who gritted her teeth and murmured that it didn't hurt. If the person he married at that time was the eldest lady of the Tang family, I'm afraid I can't escape now, so why would I say something to comfort her? His words come.

"Okay, okay, I don't understand, you understand, okay?" Su Yunbo stroked his hair, the two touched the bowl, and drank in one gulp.

The days passed quickly, Tian Lanshan was lying in bed every day, being forced by Yuyueli to study and drink medicine, spent half a month, and his health was almost recovered, Tian Lanshan then secretly climbed the wall Slipping out of the clouds, the chill of the whole deep winter was gathering outside, she gasped, and hurried to the prison, Yan Ke was no longer in the prison, Tian Lanshan came under the plum tree, looked at One of the cloth strips of the tree came into her eyes, and there were two people's names written on it.

Yan Ke.The sky is in decline.

She flipped through a lot of cloth strips, and there were only two people's names written on them. Tian Lanshan could almost imagine how Yan Ke tore his close-fitting clothes while writing those.

Xintao and Yuyue Moth ran to the prison after searching for a long time. The two of them were out of breath. Down there, looking back at the two, blinked slightly, and whispered, "Master Xiang is gone."

"His Royal Highness, you are trying to scare the servant to death. Quickly add some clothes. If it is frozen, it will be a good thing. In a few days, there will be a palace banquet in the palace. The servant heard that the prince of Beiyan is coming. So the emperor specially organized such a banquet." Xintao tied a thick robe for her, Tian Lanshan tightly held a piece of cloth in her hand, frowned, feeling a little panicked: "Where did Xiangye go? Xintao Tao, Master Xiang hasn’t come back here for a long time, so, where did Master Xiang go? I’m going to the palace, so I’ll ask the emperor for clarification.”

Tian Lanshan turned around and started running again, Yu Yuemo, who was just out of breath, stared at Tian Lanshan's running figure and waved her hands, but the wind and snow swallowed her voice, Tian Lanshan rushed directly to the gate of the palace, those people were all Those who know Tian Lanshan, even if they don’t know each other, are spoiled by the emperor every day, and all good things are sent to the princess mansion. Those people should have a long memory, so they sent Tian Lanshan directly without stopping the palace.She rushed into the hall in one breath, the hall was very quiet, many ministers knelt on the ground, the atmosphere seemed to be very oppressive.

Seeing that the sky was falling, the emperor relaxed his tone: "Everyone go down, we will discuss this matter later!"

"I'm waiting to leave." Those ministers wiped the sweat off their faces, glanced at Tian Lanshan, and hurriedly retreated.

Tian Lanshan stared at the emperor, and asked directly: "Where is Xiangye? Why is he not in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice? Where did you get Xiangye? You promised me before..."

"I killed him, are you trustworthy?" He stood with his hands behind his back, his face still showing a bit of the chill that had been tainted earlier, as soon as his heart became cold, tears fell suddenly, and he took a step back abruptly , shook his head: "I don't believe it, I don't believe it, I'm not a fool, I don't believe it, where is Xiangye?"

"As I said, I will kill him. The reason why I want to receive Prince Beiyan is to find you a vassal that I am satisfied with." He looked at Tian Lanshan's pear-blossoming rainy face and frowned slightly. I feel very uncomfortable, even more uncomfortable than knowing that Dongxing soldiers are pressing down on the situation.

"I'm not going to be a princess anymore, I don't want to be a princess anymore..." Tian Lanshan reached out and tore off the luxurious hairpins on her head, and slapped them on the imperial table.

Long Scrophulariac also knew that she was in a hurry, and wanted to coax her, but she pulled her coat and smashed it directly on Long Scrophulariae's body, once her violent temper came up, there was no way to stop her.

"I don't want your clothes, your jewelry, or your shoes! I don't want to be a princess anymore, you give me back...you give me back, or else...or I, I Just freeze myself to death." Tian Lanshan stood in the hall, although the hall was lit with charcoal fire, but the temperature was controlled so that it would not be too different from the outside of the hall to make the body worse, so Tian Lanshan took off only her shirt It's starting to get cold.

Outside, Dequan glanced at Tian Lanshan and didn't dare to look any further, he only said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Miss Yuyue Moth please see me."

"Dequan, tell me, is this princess getting more and more courageous! I don't want the princess position I bestowed." He bent down, picked up the clothes on the ground, and came to Tian Lanshan's side. Lan Shan bit her lip and cried with a small face, stared at the emperor, sniffed, her face was pale, her fists were shaking with anger.

"Your Highness, the Emperor really did not do anything to Xiang Ye, but Xiang Ye was transferred from the Prison of the Criminal Ministry to Dali Temple to await trial. Dali Temple is much better than the Prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Your Highness does not need to worry." Dequan looked at the sky, his eyes were full of comfort. .

Tian Lanshan tugged on the emperor's wide sleeves, woke up with a runny nose, wiped away tears, and asked sobbingly: "Is... really?"

"How dare a slave tell lies? Your Highness, that Miss Yu must have come to your Highness..." Dequan looked at the darkened emperor, unable to laugh or cry for a moment. He dared to use the dragon robe as a handkerchief. Only this bold princess is left.

It was only then that Tian Lanshan remembered that Xintao and the others had come, several court ladies came forward, put Tian Lanshan's robe back on for her, and then retreated.

Long Xuanshen looked at his sleeves with disgust, and said in a deep voice: "I am not a good person. Now that you have offended me, you will be entrusted with the job of welcoming the Prince of Beiyan tomorrow. If you don't understand Where it is, you and Dequan go to deal with it."

"But I... I don't know how to receive people." Tian Lanshan felt a little guilty, lowered her head, and lowered her voice a lot.

"It depends on how much you have learned from the young master Wen Yuan. If you can't do it well, I will take Yan Xiang's head off." The emperor seems to be used to scaring her with Yan Ke now.
