When is it time for mandarin ducks to say goodbye?

Chapter 62 The Smart Consort Gu
Every word and every word is Wei Aiqing, what Qin Huai said is correct, there is a lack of people in the palace now, and there is no one for the emperor to rely on.The appearance of Wei Xianyuan is simply the right time, place and people. He will definitely gain the trust and reliance of his father.

Pursing her lips, Xiao Qiyu said with a smile: "Everyone knows that Mr. Wei is powerful, but it's a coincidence that the palace was fine before, but when a group of newly promoted people came up, there were assassins."

What is the most poisonous woman's heart?Wei Xianyuan sneered in his heart, Xiao Qiyu is also not very smart, the emperor is not a fool for such a direct provocation.

Glancing at Wei Xianyuan, the emperor patted Xiao Qiyu's shoulder and smiled: "You, don't worry so much, just take care of your baby."

Xiao Qiyu didn't bother, and smiled obediently: "The weather is fine today, the sun is very warm outside, and the emperor is busy, so I don't dare to disturb the emperor. Why don't you let Master Wei accompany you to the imperial garden?"

"This..." The emperor frowned, if someone else went, he would go, but now Wei Xianyuan is his strongest armor, once he was let away from his side, he felt uneasy.

However, Xiao Qiyu acted coquettishly: "Just for a while!"

"Forget it, let's go." The emperor said: "Don't go too long, take care of yourself."

"Thank you, Father!" Xiao Qiyu smiled, got up and glanced at Wei Xianyuan, then walked into the imperial garden.

Wei Xianyuan hesitated for a moment, saluted the emperor, and followed him out.

There are not many people in the imperial garden, the rockery overlaps, and there are hidden places everywhere.Xiao Qiyu shook off the crowd of palace people behind him, and pushed Wei Xianyuan onto the rockery with his backhand: "Mr. Wei has been enjoying himself recently, so he doesn't even look at me in the palace anymore."

Allowing her to suppress her, Wei Xianyuan raised his eyebrows: "Looking straight at the princess is an offense."

"Stop talking!" Xiao Qiyu snorted, "Do you think I'm pregnant and you don't like me anymore?"

This question was straightforward, Wei Xianyuan smiled: "The princess is already a woman, and will soon be a mother, if I still have unreasonable thoughts, wouldn't it be worse than a beast?"

Tears welled up in his eyes, Xiao Qiyu pursed his lips: "So you plan to let me do whatever you want, and don't care about me anymore?"

Frowning slightly, Wei Xianyuan said: "You have a son-in-law, what do you want me to do?"

Stretching his arms around him, Xiao Qiyu rubbed against his body unintentionally: "It's not that you don't know me, the son-in-law and I are just forced to marry, how much affection do you have? He has been absent-minded to me recently, and he still wants to Who is it?"

Slightly raising his eyebrows, Wei Xianyuan straightened her body: "Who is the son-in-law thinking about?"

"I'm not a fool, and I still can't see the different dreams in the same bed?" Xiao Qiyu said aggrievedly: "He was still yelling sheep and sheep in his dreams yesterday, and he woke up anxiously. His expression is completely different from when he usually looks at me."

What sheep?Afraid of what?Wei Xianyuan narrowed his eyes: "He is really nothing."

"You don't have to be angry with him." Xiao Qiyu pursed her lips: "It's all my fault. I don't know how to win his heart."

"A black heart, what do you want to do here?" Wei Xianyuan snorted coldly, turned his head and wanted to leave.

The hand was held, and the soft touch stopped his steps.Wei Xianyuan raised his eyebrows, thinking that this should be a woman's hand, it doesn't look like Du Weiyang's hand, it looks small and exquisite, but the palm of his hand is full of calluses made by ingenuity, it hurts to touch.

"Stay with me for a while." Xiao Qiyu said, "You haven't talked to me for a long time."

Sure enough, you chased her and ran away, and she stayed when you left, Wei Xianyuan shook his head secretly in his heart, Xiao Qiyu's temper is so easy to understand, he was stupid in the past, and she dismissed her when he showed his sincerity to her.It's good now. She plotted against her to tease her, but she was fooled.

Thinking about it this way, Du Weiyang's stupidity also has the advantage of being stupid, making people unable to figure it out, there is no way to calculate her heart at all, so she can only exchange her sincerity in a down-to-earth manner.

"What are you laughing at?" Xiao Qiyu looked at him curiously.

"It's nothing." After regaining his senses, Wei Xianyuan said, "It's almost time, the princess should go back to rest."

"How long have you been rushing to drive me away?" Xiao Qiyu said flatly, "Then you will be on vacation the day after tomorrow and go to the princess mansion to find me?"

Temporarily acting as the commander of the imperial army, the vacation time is naturally less, every five days, and he can only go back after the afternoon.Wei Xianyuan had saved a lot of things to say to Du Weiyang, so he immediately said: "Let's see."

Xiao Qiyu's face fell down, and he pulled his sleeve, with a sad look in his eyes.

"...Okay, I'll go." If you don't agree, there will be no end. Wei Xianyuan quickly agreed and pushed her to go out.

"Master." After the princess left, Nan Cheng came over and said, "The arrangements are made."

"Okay." After snapping his fingers, Wei Xianyuan hooked his lips and smiled: "Then close the net."

At Sishi, the emperor finished processing the memorial and looked up to see Du Qingming entering the hall holding the memorial.

"Du Aiqing." The emperor asked, "Have you got the result of the trial?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, after the torture, those assassins all confessed, but this confession... It is really difficult for my humble minister to tell the truth from the fake, so I can only ask the emperor to show it."

The eunuch took the booklet and presented it, the emperor smiled and said: "It's a good thing to confess, let me take a look."

In the confession, the assassin admitted that he had been bribed. As for who the employer was, they didn't see clearly. They only attached the order written by the employer himself in order to seek leniency.

The words on the order were very correct, and the emperor felt that something was wrong when he looked at it, so he squinted his eyes.

This handwriting...why does it look familiar?
"His Majesty?"

"Since the confession has been made, and we don't know who is behind the scenes, let's kill them all." The emperor came back to his senses: "As for this order... Du Aiqing will keep it, and try to investigate it."

"Your Majesty." Du Qingming frowned: "The handwriting on this order can be compared, but..."

Heart trembling, the emperor frowned: "Just what?"

"It's just that the results of the comparison make me unbelievable, and the people involved are of high status, so I can only ask His Majesty to make the decision."

Wei Xianyuan secretly glanced sideways, and saw the emperor's hands restlessly tapping on the table, he seemed very hesitant, he must have guessed one or two, but he was only concerned about Xiao Qiyu, and he didn't want to doubt Gu Qinhuai easily.

If you don't want to doubt, you have to doubt!There is no one else but him!
"Your Majesty." The eunuch next to him said: "The Ministry of Officials just sent the paperwork, do you want to present it?"

"Present."

Du Qingming stood down, slightly feeling a little strange.The excerpts from the Six Departments should have been submitted to the emperor's case in the morning, so why did the excerpts from the Ministry of Officials happen to be sent at this time?
But no matter what, Gu Qinhuai was unlucky, he was usually the one who wrote the official documents, and there was no need to check the handwriting, the emperor would know it at a glance.

When the booklet was opened, the emperor's expression became solemn for a moment. After reading it for a while, he closed the booklet and looked at the words on the order next to him, his face gloomy.

"Xuan Concubine came to see me in the palace."

The eunuch next to him agreed, bowed and left the hall.Wei Xianyuan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this time it would be Gu Qinhuai's turn to be unlucky.

However, the chief eunuch came back after not going out for a while, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the son-in-law please see me."

What a coincidence, the emperor put the booklet on the table heavily: "Let him in!"

"Yes."

Gu Qinhuai stepped into the hall, stepped forward and saluted: "See Your Majesty."

The emperor was about to get angry, when he saw his attire, he was slightly taken aback: "What's wrong with you?"

Wrapped with wooden boards, Gu Qinhuai said calmly, "Reporting to Your Majesty, I accidentally fell off a horse the day before yesterday and injured my right hand."

The day before yesterday?The emperor was taken aback, then looked down at the notebook on the table: "Then what did you use to write this notebook?"

"This memorial was written a few days ago when Weichen just took office, according to the request of Xu Shangshu from the Ministry of Officials." Gu Qinhuai asked curiously, "Why? Did it just come up today?"

The emperor was silent, the gloom on his face disappeared a little, and he said in a calm tone: "Probably something has delayed it. The son-in-law is asking to see you today, why?"

"My minister heard from the princess that another assassin broke into the palace, so he came to pay his respects to His Majesty."

"You have a heart."

Hearing the emperor's tone, Wei Xianyuan stopped laughing and took a deep look at Gu Qinhuai.

Wei Young said that her elder brother Gu is gentle and elegant, a scholar who has no strength to restrain himself.Look, I don't have the strength to restrain a chicken, but my heart has the desire to ascend to the sky. How can Gu Qinhuai be a fuel-efficient lamp?He thought he could extinguish his demon fire in one go, but who would have thought that he would escape unharmed.

I broke my hand the day before yesterday, so I couldn't write the order naturally.He is Xiao Qiyu's son-in-law, and the emperor didn't want to doubt him, but now that this is said, no matter whether the handwriting is correct or not, the emperor will choose to believe him.As for him and Du Qingming, neither of them could say by name that Gu Qinhuai was suspected, otherwise they would be suspected of framing the son-in-law, which would make the emperor suspicious.

Closing his eyes, Wei Xianyuan shook his head, he still underestimated Gu Qinhuai.

Looking up at Wei Xianyuan, Gu Qinhuai smiled and said: "Your Majesty is well protected by Mr. Wei, and I and the princess are at ease, but there are a lot of bandits in Beijing recently, and the city guards are short of people, so I am a little powerless. I ask Your Majesty for instructions. Rectify the city guards and promote some useful people to control the situation?"

The emperor thought about it, and he was right, since Wei Xianyuan is so useful, then the Shen Ting they mentioned this time, who is equally as famous as the number one scholar, should also have some skills.It's time for the commander of the city guard army to be replaced. Many omissions can be made up from this year's civil and military examinations. It's better than the current messy situation.

"I originally thought that the people selected this year are all young and need to be tempered." Smiling, the emperor said: "But with Wei Aiqing in front, I don't think age is a problem. I will leave it to you to check and fill in the gaps." Let your officials do it, as long as you protect this imperial city well, no matter whether he is 20 or 30 years old, he can be promoted."

"I understand." Gu Qinhuai smiled, and gave Wei Xianyuan a thankful look.

What does it mean that the predecessors plant trees and the descendants enjoy the shade? Wei Xianyuan rolled his eyes, knowing who he would promote without even thinking about it.
