The Prime Minister's Wife

Chapter 250: Father and Son Compromise (2)
Ha ha!

The emperor smiled softly: "It turns out that it was not Zhongshu Ling's wife who wanted to take care of Shuntian Mansion's affairs, but the Prime Minister deliberately did it." It was light, without any ups and downs, and even the expression did not change, but it contained Warning, no matter how powerful the prime minister is, it has not reached the level of covering the sky with one hand.

Prime Minister Yan was soaked in cold sweat when he heard it.

How could he not understand the meaning of the emperor's words, and his heart turned cold. They handled this matter wrongly.

When Yan Hua disappeared, he reported directly to Shuntian Mansion to look for someone. It seemed that they were upright, but it was a pity that one step was wrong, and every step was wrong.

Coupled with all the actions of the past two days, everyone can see that they want to force this big mistake on Mrs. Zhongshu Ling, which seems to be a guilty conscience.

The emperor pondered for a moment, the prime minister is an old man after all, it is not good to investigate the crime in court, and said lightly: "Prime Minister Yan, I see that Mrs. Yan suddenly fainted, probably because of Miss Nine's affairs, this matter will be handed over to Zhang Zheng to deal with it. I will find her as soon as possible, if you have nothing to do, go back with Mrs. Yan."

Prime Minister Yan breathed a sigh of relief as if he was relieved, and said in private, "Yes, I obey the order."

He hurriedly joined Mrs. Yan to help Mrs. Yan get up, and walked outside, no matter how much hatred he had in his heart, he didn't dare to show it at this moment.

Mu Zhaoming winked, and Uncle Feng immediately walked out of the gate and said, "Hurry up and prepare a soft sedan chair, and take Mrs. Yan out of the mansion." Turning his head, he said to Prime Minister Yan who was walking to the gate: "Hold on a minute, Mr. Prime Minister, the sedan chair will be here soon. .”

Thinly glanced at Mu Zhaoming, smiled meaningfully, and looked at Zhang Zheng who was kneeling next to him. Don't think he is innocent. He stayed with Mrs. Yan and they didn't leave. Could it be that the goal is not the same, and they want to force him? Let her plead guilty and take the opportunity to curry favor with the prime minister's house.

Sensing the ruthless gaze, the emperor glanced at Zhang Zheng, and Zhang Zheng said immediately: "I will definitely find Miss Yan Jiu."

Mu Zhaoming suddenly said indifferently: "Your Majesty, praying for the country is an urgent matter. I feel that Mr. Zhang should be given a time limit, so that he must find Miss Jiu within the specified time, whether it is life or death, otherwise it will be delayed. I’m afraid it’s going to be like the disappearance of a woman in the past two years, let’s just let it go.”

Hearing what Mu Zhaoming said, Boqing suddenly thought about something, and said lightly: "Your Majesty, I also heard that Mr. Yao from Wutong Yeyu in Dongcheng City had a pair of outstanding daughters who suddenly disappeared more than half a year ago. , and never hit anyone, I didn’t expect that other women were also missing, I don’t know if it’s the same person.”

The emperor's expression froze: "There is such a thing, Mr. Zhang, why have I never heard you mention it. How did you become the governor of Shuntian Mansion, eh!" Zhang Zheng's complexion paled instantly, and even the man who was waiting for the sedan chair at the door Prime Minister Yan and the others couldn't help but froze.

When Mu Zhaoming brought up the case of the woman's disappearance at this time, was he trying to imply to them that Yan Hua's disappearance had something to do with it?

Kneeling tremblingly on the ground, Zhang Zheng was already trembling all over, trembling his voice: "Back to the emperor, I have been working hard to track down this matter, but the murderer is really cunning and cunning, so he didn't leave a trace, so the case is delayed." It hasn't been resolved..."

The emperor no longer had a friendly expression on his face: "In this case, why didn't you report it?" His tone was flat, without smelling the slightest smell of fire, but he was not angry but threatened, Zhang Zheng was so frightened that he didn't dare to vent his anger.

"Now kneeling on the first day of the new year, there is still half a month. I will give you half a month to investigate the case and find the missing woman. Otherwise, you, Shuntian Mansion, will pack up on the first day of the new year and get out of here." Go back to your hometown to farm." Under his nose, this kind of deceitful thing happened, the emperor couldn't help being furious.

This is a hard time for Zhang Zheng, knowing that it is impossible to solve the case, but he has no choice but to bite the bullet and respond: "It is the emperor, and the minister obeys the order."

Immediately, the emperor's thunderous voice sounded in his ears: "Don't get out!"

Overbearing, the emperor said coldly in his heart.

When everyone retreated, the emperor picked up the teacup, but found that it was empty: "Mrs. Zhongshuling, you won't be reluctant to give me a cup of tea, right?"

Boqing smiled helplessly: "Although Mu's mansion is not very rich, this tea is enough for the emperor to drink, but has the emperor forgotten what he said before, if he thinks the tea is good, he will spare the concubine if he is far away. The crime. What does the emperor think of the taste?."

The emperor couldn't help smiling, Fang recalled what he had said before, and recalled it lightly: "The tea should be the cold snow green that the queen rewarded you, not the water used to make the tea. There is a chill in the water. It should be the snow collected this morning. There is a fragrance of flowers in the water, flowers that can bloom in winter, and a faint smell of plum blossoms, but I can smell that this is not the fragrance of plum blossoms, but this kind of smell is something I have smelled before, just I can't remember it at the moment. However, the taste is very good."

Boqing couldn't help smiling: "So, the concubine has passed the test."

The emperor couldn't help laughing and said: "Passed."

As soon as the words fell, I heard Bo Qing said: "Jin'er, change the tea for the emperor."

The emperor took the teacup, opened the lid, frowned and said: "Madam Zhongshuling, you are fooling me, this is not Fangcai tea."

Bo Qing showed an aggrieved expression, and said quietly: "Back to the emperor, the snow that just turned into water was collected by the concubine in the morning, and the first snow that fell on the flowers on the other side received the cup of tea that the emperor just received in one morning. The plum blossom snow that was harvested last year in Fengdu last year is naturally not as good as the one used by the emperor."

Well!The emperor immediately showed a surprised expression: "It takes so much trouble to make tea."

Xiao Yu said with a playful smile: "Your Majesty, you drank the tea specially prepared by Mrs. Zhongshuling for Mr. Zhongshuling.".

The emperor couldn't help being stunned, looking at Mu Zhaoming with an unnaturally thin and tender expression, he seemed to be thinking about a long time ago.

Someone once did this for him, but unfortunately he didn't cherish it, and suddenly remembered that no one had done this for him for a long time.

After regaining his senses, he smiled kindly and said, "Having such a lovely wife, Mr. Zhongshuling is really envious of others."

Boqing gently lowered her eyelashes, and said with a joking smile: "The emperor said that the concubines don't like to hear it, and I'm a little frustrated. You have the Sixth Court of Sangong. Ladies who are waiting to make tea for the emperor every day, you can come from the East Sixth Palace. It has been lined up to the West Sixth Palace."

Haha, the emperor chuckled twice, to hide his inner embarrassment: "If you have anything to say, tell me quickly, you don't need to borrow flowers to present Buddha, but offer me the tea that was originally for Mr. Zhongshu Ling, I am afraid that people will miss you. "This girl will not mention Wutong Yeyu for no reason.

Thoughts of fickleness, even though they were discovered, they didn't take it seriously: "Back to the emperor, my concubine just bought Wutong Yeyu not long ago, and plans to turn it into a restaurant."
