Nanyue Kingdom, the capital city.
Today is not the morning sun, Gong Lingyao is only working in the imperial study, summoning some courtiers in the morning, and relatively free in the afternoon. However, to say that it is leisure is only compared to the people coming and going in the morning. Now that he has been on the throne for several months, when he is the busiest, the memorials on the imperial book case are crowded like a hill, and the chief eunuch is waiting on him, and he is reviewing a memorial Then put it on the corner of the table, and the eunuch immediately took the memorial and sorted it out.
Others are placed in a wooden box aside.
There are quite a few people serving in the imperial study, but whether it is the chief eunuch, the maid, or the little eunuch, they all act lightly, and never speak unless necessary, and even if necessary, they use a very small voice.
They all served the late emperor before, but compared with the unsmiling former emperor, this newly registered new emperor... made them terrified!
The palace people had seen the prince before, and the prince often came to the imperial study. At that time, everyone had the impression of being rigorous and humble, but since the prince ascended the throne, his demeanor has changed drastically, but he is more serious and dignified.
Outside the door of the imperial study room, a young eunuch entered softly, whispered something in the ear of the chief eunuch, and the chief eunuch turned to Gong Lingyao.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Liang is asking to see you."
"Let him in." Without raising his head, Gong Lingyao seized the time to finish writing the last few words, and then checked them quickly. After the ink was dry, he closed the memorial and raised his head.
When Liang Zhen entered the room, he first greeted Gong Lingyao, and then said, "Your Majesty, according to the news about Dongcheng, Zhao Situ, the son of Jue Zhao, is seriously ill. Today, he sent someone to Zhou Chuangu, the genius doctor, to go to Guandong City for a consultation. "
Gong Lingyao raised his eyebrows, "Heh, just after getting married and finding an illegitimate child, he suddenly became heavily armed. I don't know if it's because Zhao Situ can't afford this luck, or if some people kill donkeys."
Following Gong Lingyao's cold snort, the temperature in the huge imperial study suddenly dropped several degrees, and the palace people were even more frightened secretly, with no fear spreading from the bottom of their hearts.
Some people couldn't help but think that the emperor's murderous intent was even greater than that of King Li back then.
It's a pity that King Li is missing and he doesn't know where to go.
Gong Lingyao got up, reached out and rubbed his neck, and said lightly, "The weather seems to be good today, let me go for a walk."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Liang Zhen said.
Afterwards, followed by a large number of court ladies and eunuchs, the two left the imperial study room and headed towards the garden beside them.
The chief eunuch raised his hand, signaling the palace people to keep a little distance away, so as not to eavesdrop on the emperor's words.
The palace people followed from a distance, and Gong Lingyao and Liang Zhen entered the garden.
It was late autumn, the flowers had already withered, and the flowers in the imperial garden were also arranged by the gardener.
Gong Lingyao said, "Can Zhao Zicang's identity be found?" Liang Zhen said, "Back to the emperor, my subordinates sent people to investigate, but found that the village had long been deserted due to a plague, and my subordinates found some survivors of the village, The answer they got was that there was indeed such a person in the village, but he was not called Zhao Zicang at that time, but they recognized him immediately from the portrait.
This is the man. "
Gong Lingyao sneered, "It's true that the upper beam is wrong and the lower beam is crooked. I thought Zhao Yuanzheng was infatuated, but I didn't expect so many bad debts."
Liang Zhen frowned, "Your Majesty, do you think that Zhao Situ is the illegitimate son of Lord Zhao?"
Gong Lingyao raised his eyebrows, "Whether it's his illegitimate child or not is not important, as long as we can get hold of it and let us take advantage of it." The voice paused, "Recently, send someone to contact Zhao Zicang and send two beauties past."
"Yes, Your Majesty, what about Zhou Chuangu's matter?" Liang Zhen asked.
Gong Lingyao stretched out his hand and pinched the crumbling leaves on the branch, "Since I know that Zhao Yuanzheng's son is critically ill, I can't just sit idly by? Send two imperial physicians to go to Guandong City with Zhou Chuangu."
Liang Zhen immediately understood, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Afterwards, the two continued to walk in the imperial garden. Liang Zhen and Kuang Yingzhe, as the prince's confidantes and now the emperor's close ministers, their primary task is to supervise the major forces in the court, arrange eyeliners, and remove obstacles for the return.
As they walked, they saw a slim and graceful woman not far away surrounded by several court ladies. The woman had a delicate appearance, elegant and indifferent demeanor, and it was none other than her loss of virginity because of the "mission of the former emperor". Concubine Ying who was brought into the harem by the emperor.
Ying Weiyi spends every day guarding the Imperial Garden not far from the Imperial Study Room, just waiting for a "coincident encounter". After suffering for a long time, she finally received it today.
Ying Weiyi straightened her clothes immediately, and then stepped forward, but before she got close, she was stopped by the chief eunuch beside Gong Lingyao. "My servant has met Concubine Ying, and she is in good health. I know that she is going to pay her respects to the emperor, but you have also seen that the emperor is discussing business with Mr. Liang. I am afraid it is not convenient." Eunuch Kang, the chief eunuch, served the two emperors. Watching words and expressions day and night, I naturally know what the emperor likes.
Okay, and guess what time the emperor wants to see and who he doesn't want to see.
Ying Weiyi's eyes flickered, and she said softly, "Thank you for reminding me, father-in-law, then I will wait for the emperor here."
Eunuch Kang nodded with a smile and did not stop him, but his eyes were mocking.
In the royal garden.
Liang Zhen saw Ying Weiyi in the distance with sharp eyes, and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Ying is here, why don't my subordinates avoid it first?"
"No need." Gong Lingyao interrupted lightly, "Let's continue."
"..." Liang Zhen, "Yes, Your Majesty."
So, the two continued the previous topic and walked around the imperial garden twice.
About half an hour later, Ying Weiyi stood there in heavy palace attire for half an hour.
When the conversation between the two in the imperial garden was over, Liang Zhen couldn't help but said, "Your Majesty, why don't you go see Concubine Ying or have a word with her. Although the power of the Ying family is not as strong as before, they still have some foundations. Yes." Gong Lingyao suddenly laughed, giggled for a while, and then shook his head helplessly, "These Ying family members... I really can't fathom the extent of their shamelessness, when her aunt Concubine Ying instructed Concubine Xilan The palace maid poisoned and repeatedly led the trap to the queen mother, but now she has a maid who lost her virginity
Someone sent me here, heh, if she didn't take the opportunity to punish King Li, she would be worthy of stepping into the harem? The number one talented woman? I really don't care about what is not talented, it's just a piece of wood that can be manipulated by others. "
Liang Zhen lowered her head, but she didn't know how to persuade the emperor.
Gong Lingyao glanced at the person in the corner lightly, "I hate traitors the most." His voice was full of sarcasm.
Liang Zhen sighed, and persuaded in a low voice, "Your Majesty, the Ying family is still useful for the time being."
After a while, Gong Lingyao raised his eyebrows, "Forget it, it's good to go and see her." After saying that, he walked towards Ying Weiyi.
For half an hour, Ying Weiyi had to maintain a straight posture and wear heavy palace attire, her legs were already numb from exhaustion, but seeing the emperor striding forward, and thinking of the emperor's tenderness, she felt like standing for so long It is also worth it. Under the autumn sun, Gong Lingyao, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, was as handsome as a god from far and near.
