Rebirth of the Tang Dynasty's strongest consort

Chapter 443
"Prefect Xie, this is the master of the study sent by the governor. He wants to inquire about the situation that night when the government office caught fire."

"Prefect, Mrs. Cai assures you. As long as you write down the situation that night truthfully, I will try my best to keep you safe and sound."

"Cai Thief, I advise you to spend less effort. You just want my official's handwriting in this way, how can you hide it from me with some ghostly tricks?"

"Bah! If you don't eat the toast, you will be fined! Someone, bring me the scorpion!"

In her sleep, Fang Yiai murmured to herself, chanting three words over and over - "Xie Yaohuan".

"Huaner, Huaner."

"Cai Shaobing, I will kill you!"

Fang Yiai suddenly sat up from the couch, clutching the brocade quilt tightly with both hands, gritted her teeth and murmured: "Cai Shaobing! Cai Shaobing! What a thief!"

"Brother Jun'er?" Awakened by Fang Yiai's cry, Gao Yang hurriedly lit a candle and went back to the tent to wait and see, only to see that her husband was sweating profusely, his teeth were about to crack, his usual clear face now became very ferocious, his eyes The killing intent is even more undisguised.

"Brother Jun'er had a nightmare?" Gao Yang took out a silk handkerchief from under the embroidered pillow, gently wiped the sweat from Fang Yiai's forehead, and said softly, "Brother Jun'er dreamed about sister Yaohuan?"

Hearing Gao Yang's soft words, Fang Yiai came back to his senses leisurely, and turned to look at his wife beside him. With panic, hesitation, guilt, and worry mixed together, he embraced Gao Yang. In his arms, he said in a crying voice: "Shu'er, I dreamed that Yaohuan was tortured by Cai Shaobing to extract a confession."

Nestled in Fang Yiai's arms, Gao Yang's thoughts followed her husband's and began to worry, even more hesitation in his heart, but this little girl was willing to show half of it.

Trying to calm down, Gao Yang stretched out his green fingers, stroked Fang Yiai's cheek, raised his head and said, "Brother Jun'er must be thinking wildly, thinking that Xie Yaohuan is the magistrate of Caozhou sent by his father, how can Cai Shaobing interrogate her?"

"What Shu'er said is not bad." Fang Yiai murmured and nodded, and then turned the host into a guest, changed her usual dignity, and put her head in Gao Yang's arms.

"Although I know that the chances of this matter are unlikely, I am always afraid that Yaohuan will have some accidents in Caozhou."

Hearing Fang Yiai's whispers, Gao Yang smiled wryly and stroked his black hair, and said leisurely: "Brother Jun'er, if you are worried, why don't you send the servant to Caozhou for a visit."

"That's fine, I hope that dream just now wasn't real, otherwise I..." After saying that, Fang Yiai was choked up with words, and actually snuggled into Gao Yang's arms and shed tears.

Tears wet his clothes, and Gao Yang's heart also tensed up. After stroking Fang Yi'ai's face with his jade fingers, and wiping away the tears for her husband, the little girl went against her usual behavior and raised her hand to gently slap Fang Yi'ai.

"Smelly Fang Jun, why are you crying?" Even though he said that, Gao Yang couldn't help but shed tears, "Shu'er knows that the officials are not comfortable these days, why don't you go to Shu'er to play Ming Sheng, let's go to the foreign domain An ordinary life, right? It will also save Brother Jun'er from worrying."

"Shu'er, my eldest grandson Wuji and Xiao Yu have a deep enmity, if I go back to the mountains and forests right now, wouldn't I become a fish on the chopping board?"

"Brother Jun'er, don't cry anymore, it won't look good after crying." Gao Yang wiped Fang Yiai's face clean with a silk handkerchief, and murmured with red eyes: "No matter what happens in the future, Shu'er will accompany you Brother Juner, don’t be afraid, Brother Juner.”

"Hey!" Fang Yiai sighed, seeing that Gao Yang had become so gentle, she couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "If Shu'er was so considerate on the night of festivities and candles that night, how could there be so many troubles?"

Faced with Fang Yiai's complaints, Gao Yang was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, the officials taught me that it's all wrong to wash children. Take a rest and stop crying, okay?"

"My minister, I obey." Fang Yiai forced a smile, then turned over and lay down, facing the inside of the embroidered couch, although she said yes, but her worries about Xie Yaohuan continued unabated.

This night, Fang Yiai was destined not to be able to sleep peacefully, and even the person next to her pillow was also worried and anxious all night.

In the early morning of the next day, Fang Yiai fell into a deep sleep, while Gao Yang tiptoed out of the room and sent a capable servant to Caozhou to inquire about the news.

"Remember, when you go to Caozhou this time, you must treat Magistrate Xie as your wife. She is my sister, so don't neglect her!"

"I understand, princess, so shall I set off immediately?"

"Go, remember to bring the 500 taels of silver to the master surnamed Fan. Also, here are a few jade hairpins and gold hairpins. I will hand them over to the prefect Xie for my palace."

"Hey, come back! This time you go to Caozhou, you must travel day and night, and you must go early and return early, so as not to worry the son-in-law."

After sending away the servant, Gao Yang slowly returned to the courtyard, seeing that Qin Jingniang hadn't woken up yet, he couldn't help frowning, worried about Fang Yiai, went to the kitchen to cook breakfast for the two of them.

"Usually sister Jingniang makes wontons and eats them. Let her sleep more today, and Shu'er will make golden silk cakes."

The cock crowed at five o'clock, Gao Yang had just prepared breakfast, and before Fang Yiai got up, an "uninvited guest" arrived.

"Your servant sees the princess." Bai Jian trotted all the way to the main hall, knelt on the ground, and behaved very courteously.

"Come on, get up." Gao Yang put on the dishes, looked at Bai Jian and muttered, "You slave is very scheming. You purposely called brother Jun'er brother, do you want me to call you brother?"

"Brother?" Bai Jian was taken aback by the words, and then he, who had just stood up, knelt down on the ground again with a thud, and kowtowed vigorously, "I don't dare, I don't dare."

"I'm just joking with you, what are you doing here so early?" Gao Yang took out two golden silk cakes from the plate, put them in the plate, and brought them to Bai Jian together with the chopsticks.

"Long live the oral order, tell my brother to call the son-in-law to attend the court meeting this morning."

"Brother Jun'er suffered from insomnia last night, can you tell him to sleep a little longer? You sit down and eat some pastries first, and I will go get the official clothes and hat for Brother Jun'er."

"Oh, how can a slave eat the cakes made by the princess herself?"

"If you are told to eat, you will eat it, and if you don't eat it, you have to eat it. I have seen everything you have done these days. Don't worry, after you retire and return to the forest, the Zhuangyuan Mansion will definitely have a firewood room for you. "

"Okay, okay, the princess has a kind heart, and I thank you for your kindness."

Bai Jian chewed and ate the golden silk cake slowly, and waited until the end of the fifth watch, when Fang Yiai was called up by Gao Yang.

Putting on the official uniform of the judge, Fang Yiai sighed softly, "Last night, Li Shu'er was worried, so I'll go and tell the boy to go to Caozhou for a while."

"They have already sent a young man to Caozhou, and now I am afraid they have already gone for more than [-] miles?"

"Shu'er! So good! She is really my good wife! A good wife!" Fang Yiai smiled and patted Gao Yang's jade cheeks, then walked out of the bedroom, and immediately bumped into her sitting in the main hall, chewing slowly Bai Jian was eating breakfast.

"Keep my brother waiting for a long time." Fang Yiai cupped his hands forward, saw the sesame seeds on the corner of Bai Jian's mouth, couldn't help but chuckled, "Is the breakfast made by the maid in the house still to your liking?"

"Fang Jun! When did you become a servant girl?" Gao Yang spat softly, quickly took a piece of pastry, and handed it to Fang Yiai's mouth.

"It turned out that Shu'er made it. I'm lucky." Fang Yiai ate a few pieces of pastries hastily, drank a large bowl of white fungus and lotus seed soup, and followed Bai Jian to the Daming Palace.

Daming Palace, in front of Hanyuan Hall, civil and military officials who were supposed to go to court a long time ago stood outside the palace like bamboo poles, nagging and complaining from time to time, and the person they were referring to was Fang Yiai.

"What did Fang Jun do? Didn't he fall into the toilet?"

"Who knows, the edict of Wansui cannot go to court until Fang Jun arrives. It's already past the fifth watch, why hasn't he arrived yet?"

"Hey, you are young and strong, and you are full of vigor. Feminine cut your body, femininity cut you!"

"Changsun Wuji, don't say weird things here! It's not like you haven't had that time! What you said, my old Cheng is going to do something!"

"Okay, okay, you're amazing, you're amazing! I won't say it anymore, can't I do it if I don't say it?"

While several people were arguing endlessly, Fang Yi'ai lifted her robe and boarded the Danchi, and ran into a group of civil and military officials.

"Hey, all uncles and uncles, why don't you enter the hall to attend the court meeting?" Fang Yiai consciously walked to the middle of the class, looked at Du Ruhui, Yu Chigong and others in front of her, and asked in puzzlement.

"I'm still waiting for you!" Cheng Yaojin laughed and cursed, and said to Bai Jian who was hurrying over, "Old Bai! Hurry up and enter the hall, Tong Bing, and tell us that our number one scholar and son-in-law are here!"

"Cut, who doesn't have a son-in-law yet!" Changsun Wuji murmured, turning his head to glance at Fang Yiai, resentment flashed across his eyes.

Bai Jian hurried into the Hanyuan Hall, and after a long time, she stood outside the door again, holding a whisk in her hand and said loudly: "Long live Xuan, the commander of the rear army."

"The commander-in-chief of the rear army? Who? Old Cheng, have you been promoted?"

"Cut! The military commander of the rear army is only the official title of the second rank, I don't care."

"Who is this military governor?"

While everyone was discussing endlessly, Bai Jian gasped and continued: "Fang Jun, the commander of the rear army, and all the ministers go to court!"

As soon as Bai Jian's high-pitched voice came out, all the officials' eyes fell on Fang Yiai. In an instant, dozens of pairs of eyes filled with envy, surprise, resentment, etc. completely "surrounded" Fang Yiai. It's leaking.
