Chapter 959: 266 Guardian

Outside the Imperial Study Room, Zhang Mianzhi stood there respectfully, holding a gift for sin.
Yesterday evening, after receiving the letter from Han Lingfu, he knew that things were no longer feasible. Unlike Han Lingfu in the palace, Zhang Mianzhi had heard a lot of rumors these days. At that time, he knew it was not good, and he also sought People try to reverse all this, but the rumors do not know where they come from, and they cannot control them ...
How did things get so far? He had folded a daughter first, and now I'm afraid he won't be able to keep his future.
Having said that, Zhang Mianzhi also had to admit that asking the crime before the emperor's guilt was the best countermeasure at present.
So he wrote the sinner overnight, and he was here early.
Zhang Mianzhi has been waiting for half an hour. According to the who was waiting outside the Imperial Study Room, Princess Yongyang had already arrived before he came, and he spoke to the Emperor behind the door in the Imperial Study Room, but no one was seen. Therefore, Zhang Mianzhi has been waiting.
Half an hour later, Princess Yongyang finally came out of it. Zhang Mianzhi quickly took a step back and bowed and saluted, "I've seen Princess Long."
Yong Yang glanced at him, and his cold eyes disturbed Zhang Mianzhi's inability.
"Mr. Zhang." At this time, a housekeeper said, "The emperor let you in."
"Thank you Father-in-law."
Zhang Mianzhi thanked him, straightened his uniform, and walked into the royal study.
"See Emperor!"
Zhang Mianzhi went to worship, and for a long time, he did not hear the emperor's voice.
Zhang Mianzhi did not dare to look up, and continued to kneel there, with a mess in his heart.
After a while, the emperor said lightly, "Get up."
Zhang Mianzhi stood up, settled down, took out the fold from his sleeve, held his hands to the top of his head, and said loudly, "The emperor, this is Wei Chen's petition for sin, Wei Chen specially came to plead guilty to his mother!"
The emperor winked, and Father Gong Liu walked over to take the discount and sent it to the imperial case.
Seeing that the emperor opened the book, Zhang Mianzhi finally breathed a little sigh of relief, and felt that there was still room for the world to turn around. He admitted sincerely: "The emperor, the mother is indeed wrong, but the mother is really out of a kind heart. The princess died early, and this was a mess. The queen mother-in-law has already punished her mother, and she will not dare to do it arbitrarily in the future!
In the royal study room, there was silence, and the emperor never spoke.
Zhang Mianzhi raised his eyes carefully and glanced at them, but met the gloomy eyes of the emperor. Zhang Mianzhi
chuckled
in her heart and lowered her head again.
The emperor faced the frost, and slowly said coldly, "Then she set fire to the main hall of Yaowang Temple because she was confused for a moment, and pity the second princess?"
How did the emperor know that they intentionally burned the main hall of Yaowang Temple? Zhang Mianzhi was almost out of character, frightened with a "thump", and knelt down again, shaking with trembling, and shouting intuitively: "The emperor, the wrongdoer!"
"Injustice ?!" The emperor hummed disdainfully, his eyes frowning, and the handkerchief in his hand had flung towards Zhang Mianzhi ...
Zhang Mianzhi didn't dare to hide either, and let the zipper throw on his forehead, and smashed a red mark.
The emperor continued: "A monk at Yaowang Temple saw that your people in Zhangfu lit the curtain in front of the Buddha with a candlelight. Would you like to proclaim that monk to confront Lingting ?!"
Zhang Mianzhi's pupils shrank sharply, her face pale.
"This burning temple is a great sin for blaspheming the Buddha! You are really brave one by one!" The emperor thought more and more chills.
Just now, Yongyang came to see him and told him the truth about the fire at Yaowang Temple.
The emperor then knew that the day when Yaowang Temple was on fire, Yongyang was also there, and witnessed the fire as it was suspicious, so he ordered someone to check it and found that the fire at Yaowang Temple Not because Madam Zhang said it was because the candlelight itself fell, but the people in Zhangfu set fire secretly. This incident was inadvertently seen by a monk at Yaowang Temple. The monk was afraid of Zhangfu's situation and did not dare to say anything ... until the people in Yongyang found him.
If not told by Yongyang, the emperor would really believe what Zhang Mianzhi said, it was the fool's imaginary wife Zhang Lao, who came up with such a ridiculous idea of ​​marrying the second princess to Xiao Yi!
All this may seem like a farce, but after careful consideration of this point, you will find that it is a well-planned plot!
From the second princess's dream, Zhangfu's application of porridge, and practice, to the farce that was watched by the audience at the flower feast of the National Palace, even Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Ye went to Changle Palace to meet the queen ... Every step is clear They are carefully considered and calculated, and they want to make profits for themselves by talking about ghosts and gods!
Zhang Fu has really played a big game!
This is by no means confused by Mrs. Zhang, there must be Zhang Fu and Zhang Ye behind it, even the three princes may be involved!
Zhang Mianzhi was wet behind her, her mouth opened and closed, she was speechless.
The emperor said coldly, "Zhang Mianzhi, you still have something to say!"
At the fingertips, Zhang Mianzhi's mind had flashed countless thoughts, and finally fell to his knees weakly, and said hardly, "The confession of the confession." The three words seemed to use up all his strength.
The emperor had doubts about the queen's ghosts and gods. If it was said that the second princess was buried in the imperial tomb, Ziwei Xing would be dimmed to warn the police, but it is far-fetched, but now things are obviously clear.
Ziwei Xing's bleakness is clearly because the Zhang family burned the temple in the name of the second princess, and the second princess was a Phoenix girl, so the Buddha blame this incident on his head, so that Zi Weixing showed a vision!
He's not too bad for this family, it's just terrible!
Thinking of this, the emperor's expression was even colder. He was a Ming Dynasty emperor, but was stunned by the Zhang family's sky!
The emperor wanted to become more angry, and said toughly, "Okay! Your Zhang family set fire to the temple and blasphemed the Buddha, and today you have lowered Zhang Mianzhi into white body." His tone was so indifferent that there was no emotion, "... Since your Zhang family I miss the second princess so much, so the whole family will guard the tomb for the second princess! "
As soon as this remark was made, Zhang Mianzhi almost did not collapse. His face was ashamed. He thought that the emperor was at most only a surrender to the official post. He could not turn over for a few years. I did not expect that the emperor's heart was so cruel. A little face!
The most important thing is that his eldest son, Zhang Yiyu, is going to take part in the trial right away.
The emperor was angry, Zhang Mianzhi didn't dare to say anything, he could only respond stiffly: "Chen admit punishment!" As long as there are three princes, although their Zhang family fell into disappointment, there will always be a day of recovery!
In the presence of Zhang Mianzhi, the emperor directly commanded to the Gong Liu. "Chuo Chuankoukou, from now on, Jingyang Palace will be closed, Zhang Jianfei will not be summoned!"
"Yes, emperor."
Zhang Mianzhi was sweating so much that he didn't even know how he got out of Yushu.
He just wanted to return home earlier, to find the three princes, and quickly discuss with him.
In the Royal Study Room, the emperor was still sinking in the water, although the Zhang family was arrogant on the surface, but was it really just the Zhang family's own idea? The Zhang family is the granddaughter of the three princes, and the three princes obviously can't get rid of it!
If the three princes planned all of this, his purpose is obviously to take Zhennan's palace for his own use. What a big ambition!
In this series of incidents, the three princes did not show up from beginning to end, so that he could not catch a little mistake ...
Thinking of this, there was a heavy haze in the emperor's eyes ...
A few days later, the Zhang Family of the third prince's mother left Wangdu. It is said that Mrs. Zhang dreamed of the second princess every night, and she took the family together to guard the second princess.
Everyone in Wangduzhong showed a hint of sneer: Grandmother guarding the tomb for her granddaughter? With the whole family? This ridiculous thing is unheard of!
It must have been something that offended the emperor.
The three princes' mother's home has been rejected by the emperor, Zhang Ye has been repeatedly demoted and no longer favored, and the three princes themselves are not special. All the courtiers who have not stood in the queue have considered it secretly.
The rumors about the second princess were also suppressed under the strong means of Beijing Zhaofu.
When he learned that the Zhang family was sent to guard the tomb, Nangong only smiled slightly.
When it was discovered that the Zhang family was secretly premeditating in the name of the second princess, out of the jealousy in his heart, Nangong ordered Zhu Xing to quietly pay attention to the movement of the Zhang family. When he learned that the Zhang family would go to Yaowang Temple for the second princess Afterwards, she invited Yongyang and Madam Fu to take a trip together. At that time, she just thought that this ritual would not be too simple, so she wanted Yongyang to be a witness. Unexpectedly, Zhang Jiajia would set fire.
The positive result of Yong Yong is decisive. As long as she has doubts, she will definitely find out.
After Yaowang Temple, Nan Gongxi proposed to use porridge just to find an excuse. The key is the words she said to her queen in Yongle Palace. If the Zhang family didn't want to frame her, as long as the Zhang family had misconduct with her, everything they did would be their own knife.
Since that moment, this ending has actually been doomed.
What she did next was just to take advantage of the situation.
Among the capitals, undercurrents surged, and time was also disturbing here, reaching the seventh day of December.
Tomorrow is Laba. After Laba, it will be near the New Year. Although Xiao Yi is not here, this year will still be spent. Nangong Xi as the head mother and mother has a lot of trivia.
So, on the evening of the seventh day of December, the Zhennan Royal Mansion was busy. The mother-in-law and mother-in-law gathered together outside the kitchen with great interest, and it was time to cook Laba congee in advance tonight.
Everyone in the kitchen is busy, preparing yellow rice, white rice, Jiang rice, millet, water chestnut rice, chestnuts, red beans, dates, and other materials, followed by washing rice, pickling, peeling, pitting, fine Pick ...
Gradually, the women-in-laws broke up, but the kitchen was always brightly lit and busy late at night.
Laba porridge should be cooked in the middle of the night, and then simmered with low heat until it is stewed until the next morning, that is, the morning of Laba. People are salivating.
In the past, Laba and Zhennan Wangfu naturally had to boil Laba porridge, but Shizi did not care about these etiquettes. Every year, they used the kitchen to cook two barrels randomly, and only divided one porridge in the house. Back to such a grand celebration.
With a new mistress in the palace, it really is different!
The Laba porridge boiled in the house had to be delivered to the houses of relatives and friends before Chen Shi, so it was only half an hour later, and An Niang took the porridge box set in the kitchen to glance at Nangong.
Although it's still early, Nangong Yan has already stood up, and today the palace will definitely give congee. She must wear the gracious makeup of Shi Zifei, so she started to prepare early.
An Niang handed a list to Nangong Yu, saying, "Sir concubine, the grandmother has drawn up a list. Would you like to see if there are any omissions?"
Nangong Palace, Yongyang Grand Princess Palace, Yuncheng Grand Princess Palace, Enguo Mansion ... Nangong Palace glanced at the list at random, his head responded.
"Sir concubine, do you have a look at the porridge box?" Then, An Niang opened the porridge box again, and a sweet smell came to the face. The kitchen deliberately covered the porridge box with preserved fruits, litchi meat, and cinnamon. Yuan meat, peach kernels, pine nuts, red dyed melon seeds, etc., have auspicious patterns.
Nangong Yan looked at his index finger and laughed, "Mammy, give me a bowl too."
An Niang naturally responded with a smile.
Lily also looked at the porridge box, and said cheerfully, "Sir concubine, this Laba porridge that has boiled for half a night is really fragrant. When the slaves smell it, they will know that it must be sticky, sweet and fragrant. Those veterans must be grateful to your concubine. "
Bai Hui was a little satisfied when she heard it. The cousin finally grew up, and she seemed to speak a bit.
Lily asked Nangong Yan diligently again, "Sir concubine, the carriage is ready. I don't know when you are going to leave? It's better for the slave to let the kitchen pack the porridge."
Today is Laba. Nangong Yu is going to send some Laba porridge to the veterans of Liu Hezhuang. Recently, nothing happened. She thought about going there herself.
Nangong groaned and said, "At least halfway through Chenshi, I guess the Laba porridge sent by the palace should arrive at the beginning of Chen ......" Lead the congee, and then send away the palace man, and the Chenchen time should be almost halfway through.
"Yes, concubine." After Lily was blessed, she went out happily. Thinking of being able to go out again today, Lily is like a bird out of a cage, walking briskly as if to fly.
Bai Hui shook her head with a smile, after all, she could still take care of it ...
When Chen arrived, several provinces familiar with Nangong also sent Laba congee one after another. Anxiously, Lily saw that there was no one in the palace, so she ran to the second door to welcome her. She looked forward to it, but she did not look forward to delivering porridge in the palace. The palace man, however, led Fu Yunyan over.
"Ama, let me give you Laba porridge!" Fu Yunyan entered Wushoutang with a smile. When I heard Laba porridge or something, I knew that she was just looking for something to go out.
"Liu Niang." Nangong Yan was sitting side by side, saying hello to Fu Yunyan. She has a few pounds on her body and makeup, making it difficult to move, so she didn't get up to welcome Fu Yunyan.
Fu Yunyan sat down on the next chair and said with a smile: "Ah, I just heard that you are going out to play today. I'd better go with you."
Although she didn't say who it was, everyone looked at Lily clearly. Bai Hui glanced at Lily with caution, seeing Lily touched her nose in guilty conscience, thinking: she did n’t think it It's irrelevant, so I just mentioned it with the girl Fu Liu! In matters of importance, she never gets confused!
Nangong Nun didn't care, her eyes turned, she said deliberately: "It's not impossible, but Liu Niang, you have to accompany me in a carriage!"
Fu Yunyan nodded her mouth and made it difficult, "Okay." She could not hide the smile in her eyes.
After she and Axin made a relationship, the mother managed her better, but she could n’t go out, and forced her to learn female red for a while, learn the housekeeper for a while, and learn to check the accounts for a while ... In short, it is necessary for herself Hold a bitter tears. Today, she still talked about her, and her mother reluctantly agreed to her to send congee to her. Fortunately, she came.
Fu Yunyan sent her the wife-in-law with her porridge to the Princess Mansion to send a message to Madam Fu, while she stayed in Wushoutang to chat with Nangong Yu ...
When Chen Shizhen arrived, Houer hurriedly reported that the Laba porridge rewarded by the palace had finally arrived.
Nangong Yan personally met in the second door and brought congratulations to Shane.
The Laba porridge delivered in the palace was cooked and packed in wooden barrels. It was almost an hour from the time the pan was delivered to the palace. The porridge has been cold for a long time, but it is also the porridge given by the emperor. It stands for The emperor's favor is not what you want, but you can eat it with joy. Most of the rest is divided into points, dedicated to Buddhist temples, courtyard trees, and well stoves.
Zhu Xing quietly stuffed the housekeepers who delivered the porridge with red seals and sent them away in person.
As soon as the palace person left, Nangong Hui returned to Fufengyuan, changed into a uniform, and followed Lily into the house as if taking the time to sue and said, "The concubine, the carriage and the porridge bucket are also ready." Bright eyes seemed to ask silently: can we go?
Nangong Ai could not help laughing, with a big wave of his arms, walked forward handsomely, "Go!"
This time out, in addition to Fu Yunyan, Nangong Yu brought Bai Hui, Lily and Thrush, plus Zhu Xing, Zhou Dacheng and two guards, two carriages, one seated, and the other with a dozen. Porridge bucket.
The party set off in such a mighty way to Liuhezhuang ...
With more Fu Yunyan, the carriage suddenly became much more lively.
With the acquiescence of Nangong Gong, Lily talked about the destination of this trip, Liu Hezhuang, how bad the steward was, how the tenants were squeezed for many years, and the poor disabled veterans ...
Lily speaks loudly, which is more vivid than Mr. Storytelling, and Fu Yunyan listens to God, moments of anger, moments of emotion, and finally gritted his teeth to Nangong and said: "Ama, as shameless as cattle steward You must catch him and kill a hundred people! If you need anything from me and my grandmother, don't be polite to me! My grandmother is the most jealous! "
What kind of temperament is Yongyang, Nangong Yu naturally knows, and nodded with a smile: "Liu Niang, rest assured. I won't be polite with you."
Fu Yunyan said with emotion: "I didn't expect Ai to be so attentive and to know how to support those veterans ... No wonder my grandmother said with emotion that Ai has grown up and I'm like a child." She couldn't help thinking, though She hates those things that her mother forced her to learn, but the so-called skills are not overwhelming. When she learns, it is up to her to decide whether to do it or not?
The carriage went on in the jokes of the girls ...
The last time Nangong went to Liuhezhuang was a micro-service trip, so there was no one to welcome him there, but this time it was different. Now Liu Hezhuang's newly appointed Feng Guanshi is Nangongyu's accompany room. Feng Guanshi has long received the news that Nangong Huang is coming, so he sent someone to pay attention early.
As soon as Nangongyu's carriage arrived, Feng Guanshi was waiting at Zhuangzikou, and he personally came to welcome Nangongyu and others to enter Zhuang.
After arriving at the hall, Nangong Yu sat down and said, "Secretary Feng, I have brought a few barrels of Laba porridge this time. You can send someone to the kitchen to warm it up, divide it, and give it to Zhuangzi. Those veterans. "
"Xiao thanked his concubine for them first," Feng Guanshi said with a smile on his face.
Fu Yunyan ca n’t wait to take the initiative to ask:
Ah, you are busy, I ’ll help you with the porridge, and look at the veterans by the way.
She admired her grandmother to lead the army to cross the battlefield from an early age, and naturally respected these veterans of.
Fu Yunyan went with the thrush to divide their porridge, while Feng Guanshi stayed in the hall, and reported to Nan Gongxi the situation of Zhuangzi recently, such as the harvest in the field, such as the house in Zhuangzi, which has been renovated. Now, such as preparations for the New Year ...
Mr. Feng knew that Nangong Yan cares about the veterans, and he specifically reported the veterans' current situation.
They were talking, and an old man in Zhuangzi came into the hall and told him, "Sir concubine, father and son Chu David specially came to thank you." There was a hint of embarrassment on the old concubine's face. It ’s justified that those veterans should come to thank them, but who knows that only Chu David and his sons came.
The old lady murmured in her heart, feeling that these veterans were really ignorant of promotion. The prince Shi was so kind and presided over justice for them, but they were so careful and suspicious all day.
Nangong Yan smiled, "Let them come in."
But Lily frowned, Chu David and son, isn't that blue and his father?
Thinking, Lily could not help looking at her left wrist, and felt that there was still faint pain.
After a while, the sound of "DaDa" came closer and closer outside the hall ... Chu David and Alan quickly entered the hall under the guidance of a girl in Tsing Yi. The voice of DaDa was Chu David's. The sound of crutches and wooden legs.
The father and son were dressed in clean, neat cloths, and seemed to be more energetic, especially Alan. When he met last time, his face was swollen and unbearable, and now the injuries on his face and legs are better, look Coming to look good, his figure is long, but his empty right sleeve makes it a pity that he can't help but secretly say in his heart.
Lily stared at Alan with a sour heart: She looks so tall!
Chu David and Alan salute respectfully to Nangong Yu: "I have seen the concubine, thank you for congee."
"No courtesy, sit down." Nangong waved his hands with a smile.
The father and son glanced at each other and sat down. They are obviously somewhat restrained, but after all they have been soldiers, sitting and sitting, but the waist is straight.
The girl in Zhuangzi gave them both tea and then resigned respectfully.
"Uncle Chu," Nan Gongxi asked with concern. "Uncle Chu, how is your health now?" Although Alan's injuries were more serious then, Alan's injuries were mostly skin injuries, and he was young. Even without an arm, the foundation and resilience are incomparable to an elderly person such as Chu David.
"Okay! Concubine, all the subordinates are fine!" Chu David answered with surprise, "The doctor is still prescribing tonics to his subordinates. In fact, all subordinates are fine. Where can I waste this good medicine! "
Nan Gongxi laughed: "Uncle Chu, since the doctor asked you to eat, you eat it. This conditioning is not a temporary one, but it needs to be slowly adjusted."
Chu David hugged his fist and thanked him, "Thank you world princess." Suddenly he hesitated, seeming to stop talking.
"Uncle Chu, what do you say? But it doesn't matter!" Nangong shouted.
Chu David looked at Alan beside him and said, "Sir concubine, the subordinate Alan, who lacks an arm, is powerful. He is a young man, and it is not easy to eat casual meals in this village. His subordinates bravely asked World Princess to arrange an errand for him. "
In fact, after Alan's wounds were healed, he didn't find an errand in Zhuangzi, but after the cattle stewardship, whether it was the new Feng steward or the tenants in Zhuangzi, he went over his head cautiously, but let Ah Lan Kong had a strength but couldn't find anything to do.
Feng Guanshi, who was on the side, froze for a moment, and explained quickly: "Sir concubine, Alan's martial arts are good, but there is some grievance in this village."
Lily's eyes turned and she smiled brilliantly. She suggested: "Sir concubine, do you want to try his martial arts for you!" Last time, I was not convenient to attack the injured. This time, I can finally get revenge on the ground!
When Lily said this, Nangong Chan thought of something, looked at Lily with a smile, then looked up and down Alan, smiled lightly, and said, "No need to try. In my opinion, Alan's skill is to be a palace. The guards are more than enough. "
When Nangong Xu said this, everyone in the hall was surprised, including Chu David.
Chu Dawei rushed to make this request with Nangong Yu, it was also a temptation.
The dozens of disabled veterans who settled in Liuhezhuang were vaguely led by a one-armed veteran, Min Ma, including the original Chu David. Since the last concubine reorganized Liu Hezhuang, Chu David and Alan have tried several times to explain to other veterans their misunderstandings about Shi Yi Xiao Yi, but Lao Min seems to have been skeptical, so that other veterans also adopted Wait and see attitude.
Some things are true when they see it, but they are not true when they hear it. Chu David hopes to use the matter of Alan to shorten the distance between the two sides, so that everyone knows that Shizi and Shizifei are human beings.
There was a flash of strangeness in Alan's eyes, and he stood up and bowed, saying, "His subordinate Nan Nan Xie Xi concubine." This was the first time that he claimed to be a subordinate to Nan Gongyu. The meaning of his words was to show his acceptance. This new identity.
Nangong froze, and asked with a strange expression: "Your name is Ren Zinan?" The original name of Chu David was not "Alan", but "Anan"?
Ren Zinan has not spoken yet, Feng Guanshi has explained with a smile: "Sir concubine, don't listen to Uncle Chu always calling him Alan and Alan. In fact, Uncle Chu has a strong accent, and" South "and" Blue "are indistinguishable. Xiao also misunderstood at first. "
Chu David scratched his head embarrassedly, and said, "Isn't that‘ blue ’?

Nangong Yan is nothing, but there is a smile in his eyes, and he just laughs.
And Lily on the side had already leaned over her body and laughed, she even shook her body slightly. It's so funny, it's not "Alan", it's "Anan"! Haha, hahaha ... Oops, my stomach hurts!
The atmosphere actually relaxed with this little episode, and even Chu David became relaxed, not so restrained.
What Nangong Min thought of, said to Feng Guanshi, "Feng Guanshi, what is the wasteland behind the village now?"
Feng Guanshi subconsciously glanced at Chu David. Before that, Niu Guanshi forced the veterans to reclaim the wasteland. He replied cautiously, "Second concubine, for a while."
Nangong groaned and said, "Take me to see."
Before Feng Guanshi answered, Chu David proposed: "Sir concubine, let Alan go with you. Alan is quite familiar with that area."
Ren Zinan certainly has no objection. He is now the guard of the royal palace. According to the truth, it is his duty to follow Shi Zifei.
After that, Nangong Yu went to Houshan with Bai Hui, Lily, Ren Zinan and Feng Guanshi.
It's winter, and it's already cold outside. When the mountain is behind, the mountain breeze is even stronger. Baihui Lily put on a thick rabbit fur cape to Nangong.
After passing through the village, Ren Zinan pointed to the front and said, "Shi Zifei, there is the wasteland in the back of the mountain. About ten acres have been reclaimed before ..."
At this moment, a cold mountain breeze blew on, and the leaves behind made a subtle sound: "Oh!"
As soon as Ren Zinan's ears moved, he thoughtfully looked at the big trees at the back ...
"Oh!"
A sharp arrow suddenly burst from one of the big trees, like lightning.
Lily's response was extremely quick. She pulled the whip around her waist and rolled the arrow to the side, and threw it with a bang.
"Whizzing!"
Immediately afterwards, two sharp arrows shot from different directions, each with a cold intention to kill. Lily hummed indifferently and greeted him.
But this is just the beginning. The four masked men in black jumped from the big trees quickly, each holding a cold silver sword, flashing a dazzling light ... ...
Obviously, those who come are not good, those who are good do not come!
