Chapter 53 Undercurrent

PS: This chapter is still relatively short. The important thing is to sort out the lines clearly and then gather them together.

One day, the court will be briefly discussed. A few granaries are opened in the official warehouse, all of which are old grains. Trucks are transported to the porridge shed outside the city to help the victims. In fact, it is not only the official warehouse to release grains. After all, the drought has a great impact. The big households in the city are also told by themselves that it is best to release some blood, otherwise everyone will have a hard time. Of course, these are theoretically speaking. In fact, everyone will have selfish intentions, and they will not invest new grains into the bottomless pit that is in return.

In their opinion, Chen Liang is also good.

As night falls, the temperature is still stuffy.

A carriage drove out of the Shaozai Mansion and arrived at the prime minister's mansion under the cover of the night. The man who came out of the carriage was Wang Fu. He was shocked by Cai Jing's words "There is an invisible force around the emperor." He was like a pair of eyes staring at him in secret all day long.

So as soon as it was dark, he pulled down his face and came over to ask for advice.

After handing the door sign to the door, he hurriedly walked in. The room on the left side of the prime minister's mansion was brightly lit. He reported his name and walked in quickly. In addition to the first person in it, Cai Jing, there was also a person sitting on both sides. Zhu Jie, the governor of Weiyuan, who was also a close minister of the emperor and a jester who specially collected strange flowers and stones for the official family. Perhaps this person today also saw that the emperor's words in the court were unclear, so he came to see Cai Xiang and discussed the matter with him.

Wang Fu bowed and said, "Cai Xiang, I'm disturbing."

"You little polite, please sit down."

Then Cai Jing ordered someone to brew tea and said, "The two of you came from one after another, probably because you were worried that your Majesty would reveal a strange tone in your words today."

"Cai Xiangmingjian." Zhu Xie picked up the tea and quickly put it down again. "There is strangeness in Li Yan's words today, and he is not sure about his humble position, so he did not speak in the court. I hope Cai Xiang should not be too careful."

Cai Jing said: "Your Majesty is the duty to worry about disasters. Although you are good at observing words and expressions, your country belongs to you after all. So I will continue to argue today. If you continue to have annoyed the official family."

"What is the purpose of what Cai Xiang said today?"

Wang Fu frowned and said, "My husband doesn't even understand."

Cai Jing shook his head, "I'm afraid... I can only ask the prime minister and Li Yan. They only know the situation inside the palace. However, now Tong Shumi is currently in the Xichui Army, and I'm afraid he won't come back for a while. However, Li Yan didn't mention it at all, but he seemed to be afraid of someone. He just didn't know if this person was His Majesty or someone else, and I don't know."

He stood up with the table, knocked his fingers on the table, and glanced over the two of them, "If that person exists, maybe we should be hard and force him out."

"What if there was no that person?" Wang Fu asked back.

Cai Jing stroked his white beard and took two steps in the hall, snorting coldly, "If it is not better......it follows the steps...it should be done or what to do...or...it is also possible to force the official family."

Wang Fu and Zhu Xie looked at each other and bowed tacitly.

.........

The Roufu Palace is built alone next to the Kunning Palace, and is slightly different from the surrounding style.

"Send Xiao Nanzi in."

A cold and soft sound came from the confined hall gate. With a creaking sound, a palace maid asked an eunuch with a solemn face to bring in a dusty eunuch outside.

"Today, I heard that facing upwards... It seems something is wrong... Xiao Nanzi... Tell me." A woman sat in the curtain and slowly dressed up.

Li Yan quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Empress Ru... the young man didn't know..."

"Focus...whether me? Well?" The figure in the pearl curtain stopped moving, and his tone gradually became colder, "Where did the notes in His Majesty's hand come from? You slave don't know? And... In the past four years... where did that little eunuch hide back then? Why are they all tight-lipped? I really want to know how he trained you."

“This…this….”

Li Yandou's sweat dripped from his forehead and kowtowed, "Empress, I really don't know. Except for His Majesty, Xiao Ping'er and Eunuch Hai have always been wary of others, and even I don't know where I am hiding."

"Okay, since I don't know, then forget it."

The woman dragged her long swaying and walked past Li Yan, signaling the maid to carry a stool and let her sit and talk, so that she should not be so nervous.

"Then tell me all the things that happened in the court today, otherwise you will know that it is amazing..."

......

......

On the other side, the Funing Palace House.

Hai Dafu sat cross-legged on the bed, closing his eyes to practice. At this time, footsteps sounded outside the window. He opened his eyes slightly, gently opened a gap from the paper window, handed in a note, and then the window closed again.

He went over, picked up the note and opened it, and read the above words several times with a blank expression.

Immediately, the paper ball was lit on the candle and burned. Soon an eunuch quietly entered the inner house, came out quickly, and secretly dictated a message. Every person who received the news couldn't help but pinch the things in his hand, weapons, dust, or dining plates in his hand.

In the deadly palace in the late night, an inexplicable emotion began to ferment in a faint way.

Some people in Yanfu Palace also received information.

He was already sleeping, and now he was wearing clothes on the paper, and wrote a word "accurate" hard, then handed it to the visitor, and waved his hand to send it out.
