Chapter 103

The Taichu Palace is located in the north of the imperial city. It is the residence of the emperors of the Eastern Yu Kingdom. Come down, it's open and cool.

This year's weather is a bit abnormal, but February is already as hot as late spring in April, and the concubines have changed into thin gowns, covered with brocade drape, walking and walking like a breeze supporting willows, graceful and graceful.At the bottom of the steps of Taichu Palace, the palace people surrounded a beautiful woman in gorgeous palace attire. She smiled and said, "The two younger sisters look good. I think they have met a happy event."

Wang Zhaoyi and Concubine Li looked at each other, no matter what they were thinking in their hearts, they greeted the visitor respectfully: "See the concubine Xian."

After they gave the full salute, Concubine Xian said slowly: "Sisters, hurry up, why are you all sisters so polite?"

Wang Zhaoyi took advantage of the situation and stood up, said with a light smile, "My sister, Concubine Zhixian, has always been kind to others, but the rules in the palace cannot be broken. Besides, my sister is not being polite, but I really admire her. I just hope that my sister will not dislike her."

Concubine Li nodded repeatedly, she was always not good at words, but she had a straightforward temper, so she asked directly: "Sister Xianfei, why do you think the emperor called us here?"

Wang Zhaoyi didn't speak, but she stared at Concubine Xian with her beautiful eyes, which showed that she cared.

Concubine Xian straightened her hair and parted her red lips lightly: "Sisters, don't worry, since we are here, we will know sooner or later."

Hmph, what are you pretending to be!Concubine Li felt disdainful, since the emperor fell in love with that vixen Lu Qingshuang, how could he have time to talk to them?Now that the vixen has been diagnosed as pregnant, she has been unable to serve the emperor for a long time, and even for the concubine Xian, summoning her today is like a long drought, so she doesn't believe that the concubine Xian is not in a hurry.

Tch, most likely, like her, know nothing about this trip.

At this time, Li Shiquan quickly walked down the steps, and greeted him, "Please, ladies."

The eyes of the women with different thoughts collided with each other. In the end, Concubine Xian was in front, followed by Wang Zhaoyi and Concubine Li, and the three walked towards the unknown anxiously and expectantly.

however……

"What, what?"

Concubine Xian, who had been praised by the emperor for being dignified, and Wang Zhaoyi, who was demure and quiet, both had a blank look on their faces. What did the emperor mean by that?Concubine Li, who only had a straight gut, stumbled and asked, "Your Majesty, who is Yang Zhao's younger sister?"

Zui Miaojun looked at the three people who were at a loss and was immediately discouraged. Seeing that they seemed to be trembling, thinking that these beautiful women were buried with the new emperor after the original body passed away, he couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted, so he ordered Li Shiquan to present the imperial dining room to him. Give them the sour plum soup on the table.

"Go back after drinking, the sun is shining brightly."

After walking so far, I must be thirsty.Zui Miaojun thought thoughtfully, and turned into the inner room with his hands behind his back.

Concubine Xian: "..."

Wang Zhaoyi: "..."

Concubine Li: "..."

"My lord, what exactly do you mean?"

He called them here just to ask them if they knew Yang Zhao?

Which god is the surname Yang?Everyone looked at Li Shiquan suspiciously, trying to find answers from him. Eunuch Li smiled reassuringly: "The emperor cares about you ladies..."

Seeing the complex expressions of the three of them, the rest of his words were choked in his throat.

The father-in-law is suffering, and the father-in-law can't continue to edit...

Youth Palace.

A peerless beauty in a lavender light shirt is sitting by the window, the breeze caresses her silky hair, as if the sun is jumping on it.

"Your Majesty, I heard that..." The court lady Ze Lan felt a little embarrassed when she thought of the news.

The beauty didn't answer, she just gave her a gentle look, the corners of her eyes and brows were full of melancholy.

"I heard that the emperor announced the entry of Concubine Xian, Wang Zhaoyi, and Concubine Li into Taichu Palace today...but they only stayed for about half an hour before they came out." Ze Lan lowered her head slightly, worried that her mother would be angry.

After all, since the empress moved to this Fanghua Palace, the emperor would come and sit for a while whenever he had free time, and never looked at other concubines.Now that the empress is pregnant, it is the time when she needs the emperor's company, why does the emperor...?
Unexpectedly, the other party only casually said: "Understood."

Then she turned to the green tree shadow outside the window, but her eyes were full of loneliness and longing, which made people inexplicably distressed, as if the huge palace was just her prison.

No one knows the warmth and the cold.

"Ah~"

Li Shiquan's legs were trembling when he heard the first lament and sigh. He didn't know what happened to the emperor recently. First, he summoned the concubines one by one and said some cloudy words, such as "Have you heard of Yuling?" "Have you heard of Yuling?" Know Mr. Zhuang Minjing, the first talented woman Hanmei Fairy?" "Do you know what the iron-eating beast's life pursuit is?" After seeing it, he often sighed and looked gloomy.

These days, she always stares at the people around her, maids, eunuchs, mothers...they have green eyes, as if they want to peel them off, which makes people in the palace panic.As the chief eunuch next to the emperor, Li Shiquan was under tremendous psychological pressure.

"Li Shiquan."

"The slave is here."

"It is said that Gao Kuo, Wei Han, and Liu Shuping have entered the palace, and I want to see them."

Yu Miaojun thought that her anomaly probably spread throughout the palace. If Yang Zhaozhen was in the palace, even a small palace man in a corner should know her identity at this moment and have already contacted her.Thinking about it, most of the people were outside the palace.

In the past few days, although she didn't dare to let go like in the harem, she did some testing. It seems that she will not be a member of the court.After thinking about it, Yang Zhao's identity must have been directly or indirectly harmed by the son of the sky-defying son, either the courtier who has been despised and can no longer go to court now; , Either died or were exiled, and there were many people who filled Yeting and Jiaofangsi, and even became official prostitutes.

The emperor lay down millions of corpses in a rage, which is power and responsibility.

But if this is the case, it will be difficult for the other party to guess her identity, and it will be even more difficult for the other party to enter the palace.

"Your Majesty... you mean Liu, Mr. Liu?" Li Shiquan had a strange look on his face. Doesn't the Emperor wish Liu Shuping could die?Why do you suddenly want to see him?

"good."

"Yes."

Li Shiquan bowed in response, wondering what the emperor meant by this move.

Just as puzzled as he was, there were several adults who had received the order.

Among them, Gao Kuo and Wei Han are alright, knowing that the emperor is dissatisfied with them recently, who made them write a letter against making Lu Qingshuang a noble concubine?Fortunately, Jinshang has always been good at restraining his emotions, as long as the two of them handle their errands with peace of mind, there is no need to worry too much.

But Liu Shuping was unusual, he was the censor of Zuodu of the Procuratorate, specialized in impeachment and impeachment. He was the one who impeached Lu Zhenda in the corruption case, resulting in Lu Zhenda's death and Lu Qingshuang's fall into limbo.Although it was the emperor who made the decision, after learning that Lu Qingshuang had turned over, he expected that the emperor would take his anger out on him sooner or later. Later, in order to please Concubine Chen, the emperor wanted to turn right and wrong to vindicate Lu Zhenda, but he refused to do so. He bumped into the golden pillar, although he didn't die, but he couldn't stop the emperor.

After that day, the emperor did not hold him accountable, but only allowed him to recuperate from his injuries, but Liu Shuping knew in his heart that he, the censor of Zuodu, had done his best.However, after he had been idle at home for half a year, when he seemed hopeless, he was suddenly summoned by the emperor. He thought about it for a long time, but finally found nothing.

The family members were worried, and they didn't know the good and bad of this trip. Liu Shuping held his wife's hand, looked at the eldest son who had passed the Juren exam with relief, and then looked at the second son who had always been stubborn, as if he wanted to engrave them in his heart.

"Lord Liu, the emperor is still waiting for you." The servant urged respectfully.

Liu Shuping let go of his wife's hand according to his words, straightened his clothes, and said solemnly: "Let's go."

As a minister, if you go against your fate and benefit the king, you are called loyal, even if a moth flies into the flame, he will go!
However, Liu Shuping, who had already prepared for the worst, was like Gao Kuo and Wei Han, unable to utter a word for a long time when he received a piece of thick ink criss-cross thin paper called a puzzle by the emperor.

"What a good word..."

Gao Kuo flattered dryly.

Wei Han: "..."

Liu Shuping: "..."

Shame to associate with this person!

Yu Miaojun remained calm and said without changing his face: "My dear friends, when you return to the mansion, pass on this mystery to your relatives. Even a newborn baby should not miss it. Let's see who can solve it. I will reward you very much."

Seeing that the courtiers were stunned, she added mercilessly: "The servants should also take a look at it." These few people had their homes confiscated, and the servants must have suffered a miserable fate.

I saw three words written in ink on the paper - Wanshen Mountain.

"..." Is there a famous river and mountain in East Yu Kingdom with this name?They also know astronomy and geography, but they have never even heard of it.The eyebrows of all the ministers can almost pinch mosquitoes to death. Could it be that the emperor just wants to find an excuse to deal with them?

That's probably the case... The courtiers who thought they had insight into the emperor's mind suddenly looked ashamed.

Especially when they heard that the emperor deliberately left Liu Shu, the two adults, Gao Wei, sent sympathetic eyes, and looked at each other self-deprecatingly.

When only Liu Shuping was left in the hall, Yu Miaojun said: "I have another letter for Aiqing."

While speaking, Li Shiquan respectfully held a scroll and handed it to Liu Shuping, "My lord, please take a look."

Liu Shuping had survived the initial blow, and now he was very calm. He steadily unfolded the scroll with both hands—the one who said it was not guilty!His eyes were fixed, his body trembled undetectably, and he said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this..."

Yu Miaojun said: "I know what Aiqing is worried about, but the sages have said that those who admonish the emperor with death are called quarrels. Those who fight are the ministers of the society, the treasures of the king, and the respect and dignity of the king. I want How can you punish loyal and reward thieves if you are a wise master?"

"Your Majesty..." The accident came so suddenly, Liu Shuping shook his lips, Mr. Liu, who was always eloquent, could spray the monarch and wash the courtiers with his saliva, could not utter a complete sentence.

But then, the emperor stood up from the throne, walked up to Liu Shuping, who was already sluggish, and bowed down: "Before, I was wrong."

"emperor!!"

Li Shiquan and Liu Shuping were so frightened that they knelt on the ground with a "puff". Liu Shuping, who has always been prudent, couldn't restrain the agitation in his heart. He kneeled in front of the emperor, grabbed his head and burst into tears: "What virtue can you do, what virtue can you do? ..."

"Ai Qing, please get up quickly." Zui Miaojun gave a false hand...of course he couldn't.

The person at the moment has completely fallen into madness, and cried bitterly: "Your life is like a death, and death is like a weed, ouch..."

Yu Miaojun: "..."

Come on, give Master Liu a shot of tranquilizer.
