Rebirth of the Tang Dynasty's strongest consort

Chapter 530
"what?"

The words came out like wind, and after nodding in response, Cen Mao instantly noticed something strange.

"House Consort, what is a humble job?" Cen Mao's eyes flickered, and a layer of crystal clear beads of sweat instantly covered his forehead.

Fang Yiai put away the aggressive attitude when questioning, took a sip of warm tea, and said with a smile: "Cen Yushi himself said that the person who fabricated nursery rhymes to frame our palace was Zou Yinglong, the censor of the left capital of Yushitai ?”

"Yes Yes."

Hearing what Fang Yiai said, Cen Mao exhausted his chest, nodded and said, "Exactly what the officer said, but I beg your son-in-law to keep quiet."

"That's natural." Fang Yiai nodded with a smile, leaned forward slightly, and said in a low voice: "Cen Yushi is kind enough to contribute, I am definitely not a person who does not understand etiquette."

"That's good, that's good." Cen Mao clapped his hands together, and a large piece of his clothes had already been soaked behind him.

After a while, the clerk who went to inquire about Li Fang and Mao Peng hurried back to the duty room, cupped his hands and said: "My lord, what Li Shangshu and Mao Shilang said"

"What did you say?" Fang Yiai put down the teacup and asked softly.

"Shuo" the scribe faltered, his eyes swept towards Cen Mao as if there was something unspeakable.

Cen Mao and the others were very anxious. The case was ordered to be closed today by the court official of the Procuratorate. If there is any further mistake now, a reprimand would be unavoidable.

"What did you two adults say?" Cen Mao glanced at Fang Yiai, then turned his head to glance at Xue Li, and asked eagerly.

The clerk was angry for a moment, and finally said: "The two adults said that this matter should be decided by the son-in-law alone, but there is no official statement in the official document, which is not legal."

"Illegal? It's always been like this before!" Cen Mao rubbed his ears, turned around and said anxiously: "House-in-law, please be accommodating."

Fang Yiai gave a wry smile, spread his hands and said, "I can't make up my mind on this matter, since Li Shangshu and the servant both said that there is no violation of the law and the confession is illegal."

After faltering for a while, Fang Yiai cupped her hands and said, "Cen Yushi, please go back to the procuratorate to make up a painting confession."

"It's not important to make up the painting confession, but I'm afraid it will take until noon." Cen Mao muttered with his chin in his hand.

Seeing that his elder brother was trying to make things difficult for Cen Mao, Xue Rengui, who hadn't said a word for a long time, said, "What time is it now?"

The clerk walked out of the room, glanced at the hourglass, turned around and said, "It's almost a quarter of noon."

"A quarter at noon?" Xue Rengui nodded and said, "Cen Yushi, come back in the afternoon. We are going to eat."

"This." Cen Mao scratched the corners of his temples, and muttered: "In this case, I will go back to the procuratorate first to make up the picture confession, and the son-in-law and Master Xue will leave."

Seeing that Cen Mao was about to leave, Fang Yiai handed over the official document with both hands, and said with a smile, "I am waiting for Cen Yushi to drive me this afternoon, this red letter will definitely be approved."

"Farewell." Cen Mao took the official document, handed him his farewell, and quickly walked out of the valet room.

After Cen Mao left, Fang Yiai chuckled and was about to sit down when she suddenly thought of something and said to the clerk, "Where will Li Shangshu and Mao Shilang have dinner?"

"The adults' lunches are all delivered by Shangshifang." The clerk clasped his hands and replied.

"Shangshifang? What kind of dishes?"

"Six dishes and one soup, three meat and three vegetables."

"Hey, what a hearty meal."

Seeing Fang Yiai's surprised face, the clerk quickly corrected him: "My lord, only the Shangshu and the two servants have this kind of meal. Below the principal, there are three dishes and one soup, two vegetables and one meat."

"Oh? So that's the case." Fang Yiai nodded slightly, and said, "Go invite the Minister and the Minister, and say that the official is hosting a banquet in Wufeng Tower today."

In the middle of the conversation, Fang Yiai suddenly changed her mind and said, "Forget it, I'd better go to Wufeng Tower to book a table."

"By the way, how many officials are here today in the Ministry of Justice?"

"A total of 36 people."

"Thirty-six people? Go and book three tables of banquets, and ask the shopkeeper to settle the bill with the Zhuangyuan Mansion."

After sending away the scribes, Fang Yiai sat in front of the desk and chuckled, "Fourth brother."

"Brother." Xue Rengui straightened his figure slightly, cupped his hands and said, "What's your order?"

"Do you still remember what I said to Master Fan back then?" Fang Yiai stretched out her hand to touch the old wound on her back and murmured.

Xue Rengui bowed his head and thought for a moment, then said, "Is it about illness?"

"That's right." Fang Yiai gave a wry smile, nodded and said, "There will be a show later."

After finishing speaking, Fang Yiai looked carefully at Xue Rengui's clothes and said, "Fourth brother, go and get the official uniform."

"Okay, so my younger brother will go first."

At three poles in the sun, Xue Rengui put on a brand new blue official uniform, and at the same time the clerk who went to order a banquet also returned.

"My lord, the banquet has already been placed in the next room." The clerk was tired and sweating profusely, cupping his hands.

Fang Yiai raised her robe and got up, walked to the clerk, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, go and have a banquet with all your colleagues."

"Thank you son-in-law." Seeing Fang Yiai's smiling face, the scribe's heart sank, and he nodded.

Looking at the back of the scribe leaving, Fang Yiai raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said to Xue Rengui: "Fourth brother, let's invite the Shangshu and the servant? We will have to help you in this scene later."

"My brother slaughtered Turkic warriors in Taibai Mountain before, and everyone in Chang'an City knows that he was seriously injured. I think this scene will definitely be convincing."

Xue Rengui chuckled, and continued: "Brother, if you can really catch the fish, it will be much more convenient if you are transferred to the Ministry of Punishment this time."

"That's right, the Procuratorate and the Ministry of Punishment are intertwined, and it's much easier to deal with them if you have the veil hats on the heads of your brother and me."

After finishing speaking, Fang Yiai and Xue Rengui walked out of the duty room, invited Li Fang and Mao Peng, and went to the next room for dinner.

Because of the office work in the afternoon, all the scribes and civil officials at the banquet did not drink alcohol, but replaced it with the new tea from Wufenglou.

"Nephew, when you come to the Ministry of Punishment this time, feel free to do it. If you have any difficulties, feel free to speak up." Li Fang picked up the teacup and said with a smile.

Mao Peng nodded in response, and chimed in: "Yes, brother, what's difficult? Just tell me, Uncle Li and I will do our best."

"Uncle, brother. Fang Jun is new here, if there is something wrong, please forgive me."

Fang Yiai holds a cup of respectful tea, and then salutes all the scribes in the study one by one, with a lot of respect and humility in his words.

After three rounds of tea and five flavors of dishes, Fang Yiai gave Xue Rengui a wink calmly, then stood up and said, "My colleagues, uncle and brother, Fang Jun's transfer to the Ministry of Punishment this time, there are inevitably some mistakes. I hope everyone will be more”

In the middle of speaking, the smile on Fang Yi'ai's face suddenly froze, and she coughed a few times.

"Ahem. Wow!"

After coughing, Fang Yiai suddenly covered his mouth with his hand, and when he moved his palm away again, there was a tinge of bright red in his palm.

"My nephew!"

"Brother!"

"House consort!"

"Housekeeper!"

Seeing Fang Yiai coughing up blood, Li Fang, Mao Peng and others changed their faces, at the same time Xue Rengui stepped forward quickly, understanding Fang Yiai's arms.

Xue Rengui trembled with concern: "Brother, what's the matter?"

Fang Yiai coughed slightly, sighed and said, "It's okay, I guess it's the old injury I suffered in Taibai Mountain back then."

"Brother has been criticized by nursery rhymes these days, so that he is mentally exhausted, so the old injury has relapsed!" Xue Rengui said, filled with righteous indignation, and instantly led Li Fang and others' thoughts to the nursery rhyme that came from Cen Mao's mouth.

"Nephew, take care of your health. I think the nursery rhyme was deliberately framed by treacherous people. Those who clean up will clean themselves up. Don't bother with it."

"Uncle Li's words are not bad. I also said in the previous post that the nursery rhyme is nonsense. Don't hurt your body because of a trivial matter."

"My son-in-law, take care of yourself."

"The servant is a little sick, it's better to go back to the manor to recuperate."

Seeing everyone trying to persuade her, Fang Yiai gave a wry smile, shook her head and said, "Everyone, don't listen to Rengui's wild guesses, my illness is not a nursery rhyme."

As she spoke, Fang Yiai coughed again, cupped her hands and said, "So, Fang Jun will let you know first."

Li Fang, Mao Peng and others sent Fang Yiai out of the hall of the Ministry of Justice. Xue Rengui supported Fang Yiai, and walked slowly towards the outside of the sixth department.

"Hey, it's really infuriating that a noble nephew would be tormented by rumors like this!"

"That's right, Prime Minister Fang was also seriously ill due to rumors before, so why is he still at the top of the list?"

"Whether it's the top of the list or the concubine's son-in-law. These two are both honest and gentlemen, so why should they be envied by villains."

After walking out of the six halls and confirming that there were no idlers behind her, Fang Yiai's pale cheeks regained blood in an instant.

"Fourth brother, you and I will go to the public house and call for my father-in-law."

"What do you call Tieyu?"

Seeing that Xue Rengui was puzzled, Fang Yiai chuckled lightly, took out the iron plate transfer order that Li Chengqian gave her before, and said with a smile: "Go to the Imperial Horse Supervisor and transfer the Imperial Army!"
