Wei Lan sent someone to find Tianjiu, and then slept all night, recharging her energy, and waiting for the next day to go to court.
When they went to court on the second day, no one spoke. In this case, the patriarchs of the aristocratic families pretended to be stupid. How long did they talk? young generation.
Every family let their young people do things. For example, in the Wang family, Wang Xi belongs to the prince, and Wang Yuan is from Sucheng; in the Xie family, Xie Zichen belongs to the prince, and Xie Yulan is from Sucheng. . Only by pleasing both sides can the family's eternal stability be guaranteed. The one who stays is the winner, and the winner inherits his family from generation to generation. This is the best way for a family to continue.
Everyone stood in their positions. As early as last night, everyone knew the whole story. When Su Cheng came to the hall wearing a dragon robe and announced the news of the emperor's death and his own succession, the audience fell silent. Su Cheng raised his eyes to the crowd and said with red eyes: "Do you have any objections to this, ministers?"
"Your Majesty has no objection," Lin Che, who had always been silent, said suddenly, and Wei Lan immediately came out and echoed: "Your Majesty ascends the throne, and everyone expects it." After speaking, Wei Lan knelt down and respectfully said: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live! Long live."
Wei Lan and Lin Che started, and the courtiers knelt down one after another. In the court hall, more than half of them knelt down in an instant.
The rest of the group who did not kneel, apart from Yushitai and the Ministry of Rites, were the Prince's old department and the Duke of Zhen's family.
Su Cheng squinted his eyes, and looked at the leader of this group of people, Grand Tutor Xie Qing.
"Thank you, sir," Su Cheng said coldly, "Why don't you kneel?"
Xie Qing smiled, with a calm expression on his face, but he said: "The imperial court has its own laws and regulations. If Your Highness conforms to the legal system, I will naturally kneel down willingly. But I would like to ask a question. Your Highness said that His Majesty's oral edict, then, the edict where?"
Su Cheng didn't speak, and turned his eyes to Wei Lan. Wei Lan understood that she must be involved in this war of words. So she raised her voice and said: "Since it is an oral order, how can there be a will?"
Xie Qing looked at Wei Lan with a faint smile, and for a moment, Wei Lan seemed to feel that it was Xie Zichen standing in front of her looking at her like this.
Xie Zichen's demeanor was not only because of him, but also because he was born in the family of a hundred-year-old minister. Wei Lan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, she could bear it, but she was not willing to let Xie Zichen see her servile appearance.
Fortunately, this is not Xie Zichen, but Xie Qing.
Xie Qing sighed quietly, but said: "I always thought Wei Shizi was a piece of beautiful jade all the time."
He didn't say the rest, but everyone present understood what he meant.
Wei Lan smiled, but said: "I have failed the teacher's expectations. I am not a beautiful jade, but a sharp blade."
Xie Qing stared at Wei Lan for a while, and after a while, he suddenly raised his hand, took off the jade crown, knelt respectfully on the ground, put the jade crown aside, and then said: "Xie is an old-fashioned person, he can't learn from Wei Lan. With such a flexible method like the son, there is no will, and Xie dare not call your majesty. However, since the third highness is already the emperor, there is no reason in this world to change emperors without changing ministers, so Xie asks to leave, and I hope His Highness will forgive me .”
After finishing speaking, Xie Qing kowtowed respectfully, left the jade crown behind, got up and left calmly.
Following his movements, everyone present knelt down one by one, left the jade crown behind, and stood up.
Su Cheng's face became colder and colder. Seeing that the imperial court was vacant, he couldn't help shouting angrily: "Are you bullying me that there is no one in my hands!"
No one paid any attention, those courtiers seemed to have the heart of death, and walked away one by one.
After a while, the jade crowns on the main hall neatly lined up an open space, as if it was a silent protest of a person. And in the middle of the open space, there were only a dozen people standing there, led by Minister of Rites Gu Chen, without saying a word.
If those people just now planned to express their dissatisfaction by resigning, then the remaining dozen or so people are the ones who will fight hard.
Wei Lan had seen such an occasion before, she glanced over and saw Ji Shao inside, she couldn't help but thumped. She can ignore other people, but Ji Shao and her classmates have been friends for many years, she can't just watch him do such a thing. So before these people spoke, Wei Lan said in a cold voice: "Why don't you leave with Master Xie? Master Xie still didn't make it clear enough. You are ministers, and Your Majesty is the monarch. You will serve the monarch not far away. The hair crown on the head is put down, the wat board is broken, since then it is not as good as the imperial court, and you are still standing here, do you think that your majesty is weak and can be bullied?!"
She reminded her words clearly enough, but the dozen or so people stood straight without flinching.
That's right, it's not that a person like Ji Shao is unintelligent, he just knows the result, so he still has to persevere. Because he has his own bottom line in his heart, even if he sacrifices his life, he must stick to this bottom line.
When they didn't move, Su Cheng laughed. If Xie Qing's resignation is still within his tolerance, these dozen or so people are rushing to court death.
He sat on a high seat, looked at Gu Chen coldly, knocked on the table and said: "Gu Shangshu looks at me like this, does he have something to say?"
"Your Highness still needs to discuss the matter of inheriting the throne. It is not appropriate to call yourself Zhen now."
Gu Chen frowned, as if he really felt that Su Cheng's behavior was extremely inappropriate.
"Need to discuss?" Su Cheng raised his eyebrows, grabbed the paperweight in his hand and threw it over, angrily said: "I am the one who inherits the throne by the late emperor's own decree, are you disrespecting the decree?!"
The paperweight hit Gu Chen's forehead, knocking him over on the spot.
Gu Chen is the elder of the three dynasties. He has been in the position of Minister of Rites for half his life. He is famous for his observance of etiquette. Now he is knocked to the ground by Su Cheng with his white hair all over his head. Blood flowed from his head. With a cold expression, it was Lin Che who was speechless for a moment.
The young people next to him all went to help Gu Chen, but Gu Chen pushed them away, brushed off his clothes, stood up, his eyes were still blurred by blood, and continued: "I know, Your Highness means that with the Holy Majesty His Royal Highness can succeed to the throne. However, I have established the country for a hundred years and changed four kings, but I have never had a person who is not a crown prince but has not left behind an edict. Why is this? The reason is that if the oral order does If it’s false, isn’t this messing up the rules?”
Hearing Gu Chen's words, Su Cheng clenched his fists. Wei Lan immediately said: "Gu Shangshu's words are inappropriate, and everything has its own situation. In the past, the four emperors of our great Chu had enough time to leave a will. But at night, there are many people who take orders when they are in danger. Yes, now that His Majesty has been assassinated and his life is dying, how can he have the energy to leave a will?"
"Yellow mouth child!" Gu Chen yelled angrily, half of his face was bleeding, he glared at Wei Lan angrily, and shouted: "Those rebellious officials and thieves who rely on this 'oral order' to get to the top, can you also speak out?! If there is no posthumous edict for a high-ranking prince, it would be dishonest."
"Master Gu!" Wei Lan also raised her voice, stepped forward and said, "You are old and weak, I am afraid that you have lost your mind, come here!"
"Wait!" Su Cheng opened his mouth, and Wei Lan squeezed the wat board tightly.
She wanted someone to take Gu Chen out one step ahead of time, just to save his life, but when Su Cheng spoke up, Gu Chen might not be able to keep him.
She stared at Gu Chen, and before Su Cheng opened her mouth, she lowered her voice and said, "Master Shang Shu, I know that you are unscrupulous in what you say, so be soft and admit your mistakes, Your Majesty will not care."
Gu Chen's face remained motionless, and he glanced at Wei Lan with contempt on his face. Su Cheng understood the old man's meaning, smiled and said: "Just now, Gu Shangshu said that I am a traitor?"
"If Your Majesty has an edict, it's certainly not." Gu Chen held the wat board, completely disregarding life and death. Su Cheng raised the corners of his mouth, and said softly: "But I just don't, what does Lord Shang Shu mean, that I am a traitor?"
Gu Chen didn't speak, he frowned.
Su Cheng suddenly raised his voice: "Come here! Pull out this rebellious official who insulted the Holy One, and I will cut him to pieces!"
"His Majesty!"
Everyone collectively spoke out, Lin Che knelt down on the spot, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, Mr. Gu is a veteran of the three dynasties, no!"
"Your Majesty can't!"
Everyone present knelt down, and Su Cheng turned his attention to Wei Lan.
Wei Lan squeezed the wat board tightly and did not speak. She knew what Su Cheng meant, that Gu Chen was going to die, but someone had to stand up and speak out. He wanted her to open the mouth.
His eyes were gentle and dangerous.
He looked at the indifferent person, trying to figure out what she was thinking.
He has never been in such an urgent mood. He wants to look at her and know how far she can go for himself.
She has never betrayed him. He has tried many times. She poisoned Xie Zichen and surrounded the prince's mansion. She has done all the links to his satisfaction. Even though he knew that she liked Xie Zichen and that she and Huan Heng had a very close friendship, he still couldn't help but want to get close to her.
He gives her a chance...
As long as she is willing to give up everything for him, throw away this reputation, throw away this glory, as long as she speaks this way, then she will become a target of public criticism, and she really wants to completely cling to him.
—Then, he is willing to believe her.
Trust her completely.
A courtier who is willing to abandon his reputation, become a target of the court, and put aside his principles for him, why does he not believe her
He stared at Wei Lan quietly, Wei Lan raised her eyes and looked at him slowly.
She saw the excitement and consideration in his eyes, and instantly understood that this was the last link.
As long as he gets through it, through this time, Su Cheng will completely trust her. Only with the trust of Su Cheng, can she rescue Xie Zichen more smoothly and help the prince to turn the tables.
She adjusted her breathing, and in the midst of everyone's prayers, she raised her voice and said, "Your Majesty, Gu Shangshu is old and weak. I hope His Majesty will grant Gu Shangshu... the whole body for the sake of the elders of the three dynasties!"
"Wei Lan!"
As soon as the words came out, everyone in Chaozhong shouted angrily, and Su Cheng's hanging heart suddenly dropped. He looked at Wei Lan who was besieged by people in Chaozhong, and raised the corners of his mouth, almost laughing out loud.
"good."
He raised his voice and said: "I agree. If you drag it down, I will give you a piece of white silk."
As he said that, the soldiers rushed in and dragged Gu Chen out. Gu Chen struggled and roared.
"Your Majesty, don't do this!" A courtier came out and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, Lord Gu..."
"Shut up!" Su Cheng yelled angrily, pointed at the courtier and said, "You and Gu Shangshu are accomplices, right? Let's drag it down together! Whoever speaks again will be hanged together!"
Chaozhong became quiet in an instant, and Su Cheng was satisfied. He looked at the dozen or so people standing in the pile of hair crowns, and set his eyes on Ji Shao.
"Master Ji," his eyes were icy cold: "Still standing there, do you have anything else to say to me?"
"House..."
"Your Highness!"
An anxious voice rushed out, Wei Lan followed the sound, but it was Ruan Kangcheng who rushed out, knelt on the ground, kowtowed desperately and said: "Your Majesty, Ji Shao took too much Wushi Powder today, his mind is not working." Sober up, you can't even take your words as your real majesty!"
Ruan Kangcheng is the companion of the third prince, but he is not a close friend. He and Ji Shao have always been good friends, even when they were in school.
His appearance reminded everyone present of the time when they entered the palace together, and Su Cheng couldn't help but fall silent for a moment. At that time, even if they were divided into two groups, the prince and the third prince, but everyone always had classes in the same classroom, and occasionally got together to drink.
At that time, he was young, even if he didn't think much of them, but he was always happy to get along with them occasionally, with a youthful spirit.
He was slightly blocked in his heart, looked at Ji Shao who was expressionless, and said softly: "Master Ji, you go back, since you are not clear-headed, I forgive you for your innocence."
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Ruan Kangcheng kowtowed desperately.
Today's matter has already exceeded his tolerance, if it wasn't for Ji Shao, if it wasn't for the thought that Ji Shao might be hanged by Bai Ling like that ancient morning, how would he dare to come out
He has never been a brave man, but now he has already used all his courage, and his whole body is trembling.
Ji Shao looked at Ruan Kangcheng who was kowtowing desperately, but smiled, he supported Ruan Kangcheng, and said calmly: "Kangcheng, you don't need to kowtow, I am standing here, I never thought of being alive."
Hearing this, Su Cheng's face turned cold, Wei Lan couldn't bear it any longer, and shouted angrily: "Ji Shao, step back!"
"You don't need to persuade me!" Ji Shao turned his face back, and said in a cold voice: "I was in the school back then, I knew that today would happen. You and Kang Cheng are the companions of the third prince, but I, Ji Shao, But it is accompanied by the crown prince. The crown prince is Ji Shao’s monarch, who is a monarch for a day and will be a monarch for life. Where is the monarch under house arrest, but the courtiers still bow their knees to worship others?"
"Who is His Highness the Crown Prince? He has a generous and benevolent personality, respects the virtuous and corporal, is respectful and filial to his superiors, and caring and friendly to his subordinates. Don't you find it strange that he was suddenly deposed by an oral order today?"
"Ji Shao!" Wei Lan gritted her teeth: "You..."
"Don't interrupt him," Su Cheng sat on a high seat, propped his chin with his hands, as if watching a play, and said with a smile, "Let him continue."
Ji Shao turned around, looked at Su Cheng, and continued: "Third Highness, you said that Xie Zichen murdered His Majesty, but instead of handing Xie Zichen over to Dali Temple, he detained the prince in the palace and put the prince under house arrest. Isn't this a deliberate frame? ?!"
"You said that the time is urgent, and His Majesty has no time to leave a will, but as far as I know, His Majesty was poisoned and died. It took two hours from the poisoning to his death. Isn't it enough to have a will in two hours? I dare to ask the Third Highness, Where is the edict?!"
"I don't even have a will, so what about the jade seal? Where is the Chuanguo jade seal?!"
"Finish?" Su Cheng said with a smile, Ji Shao stared at Su Cheng coldly, Su Cheng stood up, and said slowly: "Ji Shao, I admire you very much. Excellent literati."
"Speaking eloquently, eloquently, making up stories one after the other. Unfortunately, this is the imperial court."
Saying that, Su Cheng's expression turned cold, and he shouted loudly: "Come on, drag him down for me, and behead him at noon tomorrow!"
"Your Majesty!" Ruan Kangcheng spoke again, and Su Cheng's eyes fell on Ruan Kangcheng, his eyes were cold, full of warnings, Ruan Kangcheng lost all his courage in an instant, and involuntarily stopped speaking under those eyes. Su Cheng was very satisfied with Ruan Kangcheng's obedience, and said with a smile: "Master Ruan and Mr. Ji are brothers and sisters. Let Mr. Ruan see him off for the last journey. Mr. Ruan will be the supervisor and beheader."
Ruan Kangcheng's complexion was pale, but he didn't dare to disobey, and tremblingly wanted to accept the order. Seeing his appearance, Wei Lan couldn't help sighing, closed her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, this executioner, let me do it." .”
Su Cheng looked at Wei Lan, saw her expression was full of regret, and understood what she meant. Su Cheng snorted coldly: "Since Wei Shizi is vying to come and kill people, then you will be the supervisor and beheader."
"Others," Su Cheng cast his eyes on the remaining dozen or so people, "Do you want to die with Mr. Ji, or kneel down?"
No one spoke, everyone held their breath, Wei Lan quietly looked at the dozen or so people, those people persisted for a while, and finally knelt down one after another.
Su Cheng hooked the corner of his mouth, looked at Ji Shao, and said with some regret: "Master Ji, it seems that other adults did not take Wushisan today."
Ji Shao smiled: "There are many people who are afraid of death, I am worthy of my character, have a clear conscience, and are not afraid of life and death."
The soldiers rushed up and grabbed Ji Shao's arms. Ji Shao shook them off, brushed off his sleeves, straightened his hair crown, and then said, "I'll go by myself!"
After all, he turned around calmly and walked away, as if he was going to a feast of singing and dancing, his posture was full of high spirits.
Wei Lan watched the figure quietly, feeling exhausted.
Probably regained the first life, and the heart became younger.
It was a scene that she should have gotten used to long ago, but she actually felt a little sour and embarrassed.
After Ji Shao went out, those left in the court hall could not speak anymore. According to the usual pattern of the morning court, after discussing the enthronement ceremony, Su Cheng left Wei Lan behind, and then dispersed the court.
Wei Lan followed Su Cheng into the imperial study room, and as soon as she entered the room, Su Cheng hugged her tightly.
"Your Majesty," Wei Lan pushed him away and said coldly, "What are you doing!"
Su Cheng was pushed to the ground by her, he got up, he didn't care, and said with a smile: "Alan, I'm the emperor now."
"Your Majesty," Wei Lan looked at him coldly, "From yesterday, you are the emperor."
"No... no, Alan," Su Cheng got up, and said happily: "It's different, Alan." He held her hand: "You will always stand by my side, right?"
Hearing this, Wei Lan understood that Su Cheng finally regarded her as his confidant. She met the young man's delighted eyes, and she didn't quite understand what time was, which could change the proud and beautiful young man back then into what he is now.
"Your Majesty," she neither affirmed nor denied, "I am His Majesty's subject."
Forever a servant of the emperor.
"I know." Su Cheng smiled and frowned, holding her hand: "Alan will not betray me."
Wei Lan didn't speak, Su Cheng thought for a while, but understood her concerns, frowned and said, "You still think about Xie Zichen?"
"Your Majesty," Wei Lan said coldly, "Can Your Majesty, for Wei Lan's sake, not leave lifelong harm on Xie Zichen?"
She wants a good Xie Zichen. She couldn't keep any more.
Su Cheng was a little annoyed in his heart, but he said with a smile on his face: "I will protect Xie Zichen, does Wei Shizi want to compensate me for something?"
In front of Wei Lan, he was reluctant to use the title "Zhen". Wei Lan looked up at him, but said, "What does Your Majesty want?"
Su Cheng smiled, and took a step forward, Wei Lan's face didn't move, Su Cheng pinched her chin, and said softly: "Your Majesty, you know, I haven't been able to find anyone for so many years, there is someone better than Shizi Kissing skills."
Wei Lan frowned, Su Cheng was a licentious person, he was a man of lust, you can tell by the number of his concubines and pets. But she never thought that Su Cheng would put his thoughts on her head.
But thinking about it, Wei Lan has some understanding. Didn't she have such thoughts about Su Cheng back then? It's really a turn of wind and water, and it's coming to my house this year.
If it was back then, Wei Lan would naturally not shirk it, and she might still be a little bit happy. But she didn't know when it started, but she didn't have such interest. She thought about that person, thought that the other person would be angry and angry, and she lost such interest.
So she said lightly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will find a better one for Your Majesty, and share your worries."
"Alan," Su Cheng smiled, "You really like Xie Zichen."
Wei Lan's expression didn't move, Su Cheng's eyes darkened, and continued: "You know, only when you like someone, will you want to protect yourself like a jade for him. You are the same, and I am the same."
"Alan." He held her hand and approached her: "Kiss me, I won't let anyone interrogate Xie Zichen tonight."
"If you don't interrogate him, what will happen to His Majesty's jade seal?" Wei Lan lowered her eyes as he held her hand. It is impossible for Tianjiu alone to interrogate Xie Zichen. The longer Xie Zichen stays in the palace, the more dangerous he will be. Although it is impossible for Su Cheng to kill him, it is absolutely impossible to make him feel better. Thinking of what Xie Zichen is going to face, Wei Lan can't wait to tear down the imperial city now.
But no, the time is not up.
Wang Ning's army did not come, Huan Heng's army did not come, and her manpower in the court did not go down.
If it was said that sending the prince away was a helpless move when the situation was unclear, then now it is a gamble between her and Xie Zichen.
Xie Zichen stole the jade seal and was tortured for it, making Sucheng's throne forever dishonest and giving the prince a reason and opportunity to raise troops. When the prince ascends the throne in the future, this is the kindness and first contribution of a lifetime.
And now she has become Su Cheng's confidant, and she is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. Now that the court is rectifying the vacancies, she will handle the matter of filling people. At that time, she will make up people from her and Xie Zichen one after another, and wait for the prince to return to Beijing. At this time, open the city gate again and welcome the prince back to the city. In this way, she will also become an important minister of the prince. At this time, the court has changed blood, and most of the people from the top to bottom are her and Xie Zichen's people. Gained a firm foothold in Chaozhong.
So she couldn't be too impulsive, Xie Zichen took the initiative to suffer this crime, and what he wanted was such a bright future.
Her face remained motionless, thinking quickly in her heart, Su Cheng watched her frowning slightly, indulging in this amazing beauty, feeling that there was nowhere to vent her desire, he stared at her, and said in a hoarse voice: "For Ah Lan, It is okay to delay the matter of Yuxi."
"Alan," he said affectionately, "do you want this great gift?"
Wei Lan didn't speak, she raised her eyes to look at Su Cheng, who was waiting for her answer, after a while, she smiled lightly, Su Cheng's eyes showed a surprised expression, Wei Lan pushed Su Cheng to the ground, raised her hand to untie it. He took off his cloak, threw it on the ground casually, and then hung it on Su Cheng's body, raised his hand and pulled Su Cheng's hand over his head, grabbed it, and pressed it under his hand.
"Your Majesty is in a hurry to give gifts," Wei Lan smiled, her eyes were cold: "Where is there any gift that Wei Lan does not accept? It's just that I will ask the young master in person tomorrow, can Your Majesty agree?"
"A-Lan asks," Su Cheng saw Wei Lan's blue hair falling down, caressing his face, he couldn't help feeling distracted, and said in a hoarse voice: "Of course I am willing."
"That's good," Wei Lan pinched Su Cheng's chin, and said coldly, "Then let me see how Your Majesty feels."
After finishing speaking, Wei Lan bowed her head and kissed her. Su Cheng opened her eyes wide, feeling the electric current go all the way up her spine.
Wei Lan's kissing skills are very good, he knows it, but he has never thought about it, four years have passed, and it's not known whether it's because of the long lovesickness, or something else, just one kiss can make him fall in love.
Su Cheng felt that he was not like himself, but the people in front of him were always so cold and reserved.
She watched him quietly, and this kind of staring, which was always withdrawn, made Su Cheng extremely excited. He wanted to grab her and hold her down, but he didn't have the guts. He panted softly, she straightened up, with a silver thread drawn from her lips, and said coldly: "Your Majesty, is that enough?"
He wanted to say that it was not enough, he wanted more, but when he met the other party's gaze, he suppressed himself and said hoarsely: "Enough."
Wei Lan stood up resolutely, picked up the cloak next to her, and said, "The minister will leave."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and left without saluting at all.
Su Cheng looked at her back and held himself.
"Alan..." He closed his eyes and said hoarsely, "Alan."
Wei Lan walked out of the palace with her fists clenched, jumped directly into the carriage, Ran Mo followed, and asked anxiously, "Master, what's wrong?"
"Where's Tianjiu?"
Wei Lan spoke in a cold voice, and Ran Mo sensed that the atmosphere was not right, so she didn't dare to speak nonsense, and said, "I'm in the house."
Wei Lan nodded, Ran Mo asked the coachman to drive to the house of a woman. After entering, Wei Lan changed her clothes and jumped out from the back door. After carefully checking whether anyone was following them, they came to a house and pushed Entering the door, Chang Pei and a woman were already waiting there.
"My son," Chang Pei saluted respectfully, Wei Lan raised her hand, looked at the woman who was saluting, and said calmly, "Tian Jiu Pei Rong?"
"Yes." The woman said respectfully, Wei Lan nodded, walked into the main hall, and said directly: "Speaking of business, what happened that day?"
"The day before the young master's accident, the queen discussed with His Majesty, hoping that the young master would be the princess, so His Majesty called the young master privately to discuss the matter. After hearing that His Majesty left the young master, the queen mother told everyone that she would discuss with His Majesty. When we arrived, the room There were only the Young Master and His Majesty. At that time, His Majesty had already started to vomit blood. The Young Master immediately summoned the imperial physician. While everyone was in a hurry, the Young Master stole the jade seal on the table and hid it in his sleeve. After the slaves and the Empress rushed to the imperial study, The queen immediately ordered the palace gate to be sealed, and at the same time controlled everyone present. The young master struggled to scold the queen, and the servant girl took the initiative to go up and slap him. into the hands of slaves."
"So Yuxi is with you?"
Wei Lan frowned, Tian Jiu took out a palm-sized jade seal from his sleeve, and presented it respectfully. Wei Lan held the jade seal, looked at the complicated lines on it, and listened to Tianjiu: "Young master said, the prince is holding this jade seal, and he will give it to the prince later. Everyone will naturally believe that the prince is the prince's internal agent, so there is no need to take the risk of going to Kaicheng. This move will anger Su Cheng, it is too dangerous."
Wei Lan didn't speak, but looked at the jade seal.
Even in such a situation, that person was still thinking about how to protect her and how to make her safer.
This feeling of being protected under the wings is very strange to Wei Lan, she feels sore in her heart, and suddenly regrets so much, why not be more honest? Why don't you talk to him a little more.
What if the person can't come back this time
He didn't even know that she was actually a girl.
He didn't even know that she could actually have children for him.
She stroked Yuxi and said hoarsely, "Does he have any other orders?"
"No, my son just asked me to tell you something else that has nothing to do with it."
"speak."
"Young Master said," Tian Jiu pursed his lips, seeming a little embarrassed: "He's not jealous, you and Su Cheng, just be happy."
Wei Lan: "..."
She felt that if she believed it, the sky would collapse when Xie Zichen came out.
Wei Lan felt a little embarrassed, coughed, nodded and said: "I see, you tell him, if you can't bear it, don't force it. It doesn't matter if you confess Yuxi. His life is much more important than these."
"Your Majesty, don't worry," Tian Jiu said, "I am also one of the executioners. I have seen your Majesty's injuries. Although they look terrible, they are not hurt."
Wei Lan stiffened, and Tianjiu gave a few more instructions before going down.
On the other side, Wang Xi finally walked out of the mountains and came to a small town. He hurriedly bought a suit of clothes and a horse, and then contacted the people in Shengjing.
It is extremely difficult to get in and out of Shengjing at this moment, the secret guard who finally came out hurriedly said to Wang Xi: "Seventh Young Master must not go back, Master Ji will be executed tomorrow."
Wang Xi was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Who do you think will be executed?"
"Ji Shao, Master Ji."
"What about Lin Che?" Hearing such tragic news about his friend, Wang Xi was the first to think of this friend, even though he knew that Lin Che might be inextricably linked in this matter, but there was always With such a fluke, what if he is wrong
However, the words of the secret guard made his heart cool down completely: "Lord Lin Xun has been promoted to Minister Order, and Lord Lin Che has been promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Punishment."
Minister of the Ministry of punishment.
With Lin Che's qualifications, it would be impossible for her to have such a position if she hadn't had the merits of being a dragon. Wang Xi was silent, but after a while, he smiled.
"He became the minister of the Ministry of punishment, but he just watched his brother die like this?"
"Climb up with the lives of my brothers..." Wang Xi raised his hand to his forehead, feeling a little sour in his eyes: "It's very good, it's really good."
"Seventh Young Master..." The dark guard was a little worried. Wang Xi closed his eyes. After a while, he opened them again and continued, "What about the others? Tell me one by one!"
After Wei Lan sent Tianjiu away, she turned back the same way and got into the carriage.
She stayed up all night, waiting for someone to come.
She is the supervisor, but she doesn't want Ji Shao to die. If there is any chance, she still hopes that Ji Shao can survive. Su Cheng's meaning is very clear, he intends to use Ji Shao's life to silence everyone and kill chickens to make an example to monkeys.
She can't make a move, Su Cheng is staring at her all the time now, but Ruan Kangcheng can. With the relationship between Ruan Kangcheng and Ji Shao, she thought, he must come to ask for help.
As long as Ruan Kangcheng does something, she is willing to take a risk and let Ji Shao go by pretending to be negligent.
This is not a sensible thing, and even a slight mistake made Su Cheng think that she did it on purpose, and even she would capsize. Now Su Cheng has mentioned her as a member of the Ministry of Officials, in charge of the current arrangement of officials in Sheng Jingzhong. He has begun to trust her, and it is precisely because of trust that he cannot tolerate betrayal.
However, she can't do nothing. When she closes her eyes, she will remember those years when Wang Xi took these young people to drink and sing with her.
You will think of her returning from the north, that person sitting in the carriage, playing the joyful song of welcoming guests.
He would think of the days when she went to see Yan Lan, who had a good time with her, played the piano and the flute.
Such a lively person, such an upright and gentle person, like a light in this rotten world.
She, Xie Zichen, and Su Cheng are all rotten people, while Wang Xi is a half-rotten person with one eye open and one eye closed. Ruan Kangcheng is a weak person, but he is the only one with a strong character. Refuse to bend down.
She was reluctant to let this person leave in such a way at such an age, but she couldn't do it herself. She can only wait for someone else to come.
However, she waited all night, and there was no news from Ruan Kangcheng. The spy who was placed in Ruan Kangcheng's house came to report to Wei Lan, saying that Ruan Kangcheng was locked up by his father, drunk at home, and cried all night.
Wei Lan; "..."
He shouldn't be called Ruan Kangcheng, but a soft persimmon.
On the second day, she calculated the time correctly and went to pick up Ji Shao from the prison in person.
Ji Shao was wearing yesterday's official robe, kneeling and sitting in the prison cell, as if he was above a high hall, without losing his strength.
Wei Lan came to him, smiled and said, "Will Brother Ji hate me when I send Brother Ji on his way?"
Ji Shao smiled with a calm expression.
"It's an honor for Ji Shao to be sent off by Brother Wei in person. Hearing a song from the king on the road to Huangquan, I will live up to this life."
"Ji Shao, thank you."
