Chapter 270
What?
When the emperor wanted to see his mother, he did not send an eunuch to ask for help, but sent a Jinwu Guard to ask for help.
What does it mean?
If the mother refuses to enter the palace or delays, will she use force?
"You are presumptuous!"
Yan Yunqi scolded him sternly!
Zheng Gang's eyebrows and his eyes moved slightly, and he smiled and said, "The Lord of the Lord dares not be arrogant! Everything the Lord of the Lord does is on order. Your Majesty is waiting for the county magistrate in the palace. Let's not waste time, let Your Majesty wait for a long time!"
Yan Yunqi still cursed angrily, but was stopped by Xiao.
Xiao was always very calm. She asked, "You said that Your Majesty summoned me to the palace to meet, but the one who came was not the yellow eunuch in the palace, but the famous Jinwu Guard. How could I believe what you said is true? If you are coaxing me, it will be unfavorable to me as soon as I leave the county lord's mansion..."
"The Empress is too worried!"
Zheng Gang directly interrupted Xiao.
He said solemnly, "Give the lower officials ten courages, and the lower officials dare not fake the imperial edict. Indeed, the lower officials have no imperial edict, nor the command of His Majesty, and only the oral order of His Majesty. However, the lower officials did ask the empress to enter the palace according to His Majesty's order. If the empress is not at ease, he can let the second prince's concubine, or even let Miss Yan Si send you to the palace gate in person. The lower officials will take you to Xingqing Palace to meet His Majesty."
Yan Yunqi was anxious, "Mother, don't trust him. The people from Jinwu Guard are as cunning as foxes. Maybe he is just coaxing his mother."
Zheng Gang smiled bitterly. He understood why the emperor asked him to come forward to invite the Lord of Zhuyang County to the palace, rather than sending the yellow eunuchs in the palace.
This is your Majesty's test.
Zheng Gang said loudly, "Mrs. County Majesty, please don't waste time. You can go to the palace by yourself, and the officials can escort behind you. In short, it is true that Your Majesty summoned you. Please don't waste time any more, so as not to anger Your Majesty."
"Are you threatening my mother?" Yan Yunqi asked.
Zheng Gang smiled and sarcastically said, "Second Princess, if I intend to threaten the county magistrate, I would not be so polite. But it is not your fault. After all, you have never dealt with me in the past and don't know my temper. If I am here to arrest the county magistrate, do you think I will be so patient to listen to you nonsense?"
presumptuous!
Yan Yunqi clenched her fists and was about to attack.
Xiao, however, spoke first, "I will enter the palace with you. I believe you will not dare to falsely pass the imperial edict. You are your Majesty's pawn, and everyone will be beaten. If you dare to falsely pass the imperial edict, there will be no place for you, Zheng Gang, in heaven and earth."
Zheng Gang laughed without being angry, "It's still the county magistrate who can see through it. I am a guardian dog in front of His Majesty, so I will naturally not make any arguments. However, if anyone dares to disobey His Majesty, I will also turn into a vicious dog and bite whoever I see."
I have never seen anyone compare themselves to a dog, who is so righteous, fresh and refined, with a look of pride and pride.
Yan Yunqi was worried, "Mother really wants to follow him into the palace? But..."
Xiao waved his hand, "You don't have to worry, you go back to the prince's mansion first. After I leave the palace, I will send someone to notify you."
Yan Yunqi refused, "I'm just waiting for my mother to come back here."
"No need! I can't say exactly when I will come back now. You have children waiting for you to go back. Don't be willful and listen to me."
Yan Yunqi thought of her child and gritted her teeth, "Okay! I'll listen to my mother. I personally send my mother to the palace, and then I'll go back to the prince's mansion."
"Very good!"
Zheng Gang, Zhijinwu, asked a little more, "Don't the county magistrate let Miss Yan Si see you off?"
Xiao smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lord Zheng, my Yunge will not shoot cold arrows behind you. You can leave the county lord's mansion with confidence and boldness."
Zheng Gang refused to admit that there was a moment before, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He laughed and covered up his embarrassment, "The county magistrate is really good at joking. I came here several times, but I didn't see Miss Yan Si. It's such a pity."
"She is a big girl, what do you do when you see her? Could it be that you have ill intentions towards my fourth sister?" Yan Yunqi asked him.
Zheng Gang laughed, "The Second Prince's Concubine is really good at joking. Do you think I have a bad intention to anyone?"
"Like! You look like you have a bad intention to anyone."
"Second Princess must not say that. For example, I have no idea about your Second Prince's Mansion. Unless one day, His Highness the Second Prince commits a crime and happens to fall into my hands..."
"You dare!"
"Hahaha……"
Zheng Gang laughed loudly and didn't say much.
However, everything is indescribable.
I really waited until the day when His Highness the Second Prince committed the crime, and it would be clear whether he dared it or not.
His favorite is to capture royal relatives and high-ranking officials and nobles.
What fascinated him the most was to completely disappear from this world through his own hands.
However, Your Majesty's methods are still a little more kind, and he can't kill all the aristocratic families and eliminate them.
It's really a pity.
Xiao changed his clothes and took his maid and mother out of the county lord's mansion in a carriage.
Yan Yunqi saw each other off all the way.
Yan Yunge never showed up, and Zheng Gang rode his horse and looked around.
He had reason to suspect that Yan Yunge was nearby and followed them tightly.
But he didn't know where the person was hiding?
If Yan Yunge can be caught, and she is holding a crossbow arrow, Zheng Gang gritted his teeth and must be punished for Yan Yunge as a thief.
Finally, I successfully arrived at the palace gate.
Xiao told Yan Yunqi to go back early and not to stay at the palace gate.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty shouldn't make things difficult for me."
"But the northwest..."
"When will it be our turn to worry about the work of the northwest? The great Wei Dynasty, if it falls into a few women to save it, the country will be over. Go back and wait for the news with peace of mind. Don't make things difficult for the Second Prince. It's useless for him to come forward. Remember?"
Yan Yunqi focused her head and was worried, "Why would her daughter accompany her mother to the palace."
Xiao laughed, "Don't joke! Your Majesty summoned me, how could you enter the palace with me? Do you want the child?"
Whenever Yan Yunqi mentioned her child, she couldn't hold on.
She was a little depressed, a little guilty, and more worried.
She watched her mother Xiao walk into the palace gate, and her heart is thrust.
At some point, Yan Yunge came to her, "Second sister, don't stand at the gate of the palace, beware of the Huang Dawei's eunuch."
"When did the fourth sister come?"
Yan Yunge raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I've been here for a while. Don't worry, second sister, mother will be fine."
Yan Yunqi held her hand, "I feel very uneasy. Your Majesty summoned her mother, why didn't he send an eunuch, but asked Jinwu Guard to invite someone? Could it be that Your Majesty is going to be unfavorable to his mother?"
Yan Yunge glanced at the palace gate, pulled his second sister into the carriage, and chatted while walking.
"Your Majesty asked the Jinwu Guard to come forward to invite his mother, perhaps to shock or to vent his anger."
"Exhaust?"
Yan Yunge nodded, "The Jinwu Guard wants to arrest Yan Yunquan. It took two or three days to do so, and even Yan Yunquan's hair was not caught. Do you think Your Majesty is angry? My mother is the mistress of the Yan family and the legitimate mother of Yan Yunquan. Your Majesty must meet her. It's impossible for the Jinwu Guard to arrest Yan Yunquan in a large manner, but she turns a blind eye to her mother."
"But what if His Majesty threatens his father with his mother?"
"It's useless! Everyone knows this, and your Majesty knows it too. Your Majesty summoned his mother to the palace, and maybe he would talk in a harmonious manner."
...
Xingqing Palace.
Mrs. Xiao was invited into the bedroom.
The emperor lay tilted on the arhat couch, wearing a robe.
Although it was not yet midsummer, the weather was obviously getting hotter.
Xiao was wearing a thin spring outfit, but the emperor was actually wearing a thick robe.
This abnormal dressing behavior made Xiao frown slightly.
Is the emperor's physical condition so serious?
Looking at the emperor's fifty-year-old beard, Xiao sighed secretly.
She bowed to greet her, sat on the ground, and sighed, "Your Majesty is old!"
Emperor Yongtai coughed lightly, "Yes, we are all old. Only you, compared to when you first returned to the capital, has no change at all."
Xiao bowed slightly, "I am so happy and am happy."
Emperor Yongtai sneered, "If you are so open-minded, why did you stay in the capital for several years and refuse to return to Shanggu County?"
"It is precisely because I am open-minded that I don't go back to Shanggu County and get so idle. Is Your Majesty annoyed me and is going to send me back to Shanggu County?"
Emperor Yongtai shook his head slowly, "If you don't want to go back, I won't force you to go back. It was indeed a bit inappropriate for the late emperor to marry you to Yan Shouzhan. Fortunately, you have spent all these years safely and returned to the capital smoothly. I am happy for you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Please take care of yourself and don't work too hard. If you have a heavy burden on the state, let your ministers share the worries without having to do everything yourself."
Emperor Yongtai smiled, "I know, you understand my intentions. The Western Rong rushed south and came in a fierce manner. The governments along the way were powerless to stop it. At present, only Yan Shou Zhan has the power to fight. As long as he is willing to work hard, he can hold up the Western Rong Bing Peak, wait for the Liangzhou troops to encircle, and annihilate the Western Rong Bings in one fell swoop.
However, I know Yan Shouzhan, and even if I issue an imperial edict to him, he will not do his best to hold back the Xirong soldiers. He is accustomed to preserving his strength. He will definitely only treat this kind of war that is not beneficial to losing troops and losing generals.
However, if he refused to send troops to drag the Xirong to the south, the Xirong would march straight into the capital. At that time, the Great Wei Dynasty would be in danger. What should you do?"
Xiao thought for a moment and shook his head slowly, "Even if Yan Shouzhan is willing to do his best, he may not be able to hold back the Xirong Bing Peak."
"I don't believe it!"
Xiao reminded, "Youzhou is also causing trouble in the civil unrest, and the traitors are rampant. Yan Shou Zhan is now quelling the chaos. The Western Rong Bingfeng heads head south, and he cannot draw enough troops for a while, so how can he stop it?"
Emperor Yongtai immediately said, "I have ordered them to retreat and temporarily let those rebels go. First deal with the Xirong soldiers and horses, and then quell the rebellion."
Chapter completed!
