A carriage was driving from the direction of the Daming Palace to Yongle Square in the south. The person sitting in the carriage was the recent hot topic in Chang'an, the newly promoted supervisory censor Ye Sanlang. At this moment, he had not yet recovered from the sudden surprise. . First, the emperor did not investigate the previous matters, and then he was promoted to the supervisory censor, plus... He touched his chest, and with the Dragon Searching Secret Book in his arms, could it be that his fortune had changed?
While he was thinking wildly, the driver in front of him suddenly stopped the carriage.
He opened the curtain door, only to see his father standing at the door to say goodbye to a carriage. His carriage stopped to make way for the carriage. When the people in the carriage saw him, they were overjoyed and quickly asked the coachman to stop the carriage. , jumped off the carriage and ran over. He also knew this person. He was Du Youling, the father-in-law of the prince who had just been promoted to Doctor Shanzan of the East Palace. He had had many contacts with his father before and was considered a drinking buddy of his father. But what was he doing here now?
But when a high-ranking official of the fifth rank came running over, he couldn't stay in the car any longer. Ye Sanlang jumped out of the car and waited for Du Youling to come.
"Sanlang is really a good person. He really brings honor to your father." Du Youling said as soon as they met.
"Ah?" Ye Sanlang didn't react at once. He had just been promoted not long ago. Why did the news about this guy come so fast?
"You have become famous in Chang'an these days. His Highness the Crown Prince is also very concerned about you. He also said that he would inform you immediately as soon as there is news about you. I just heard that you woke up and rushed over. Who would have thought that you would actually It’s really unfortunate that he’s not at home.”
It turned out that he didn't know it yet, but... the prince was Li Heng. Why would he care so much about him? Could it be that he suspected that Li Sihan's disappearance was related to him? Could it be that the failure of his men was meant to fall on him? There was almost a cold sweat running down his back. However, Du Youling didn't know the insidious nature of it, but he was considered a close friend of his father, and his concern for him was genuine.
"To be honest with Mr. Du, I just came back from the medicine shop and I am still feeling a little unwell. Thanks to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's love, I will visit Mr. Du at your residence one day after I recover."
"Oh, I almost forgot that you have just recovered from a serious illness. It's better for Sanlang to take a rest, so I'll take my leave now and come back to you next time." Du Youling said hello and returned to his carriage, but he He had forgotten that his good friend Ye Tianzheng was one of the top doctors in Chang'an. How could his son go to an ordinary drug store?
The carriage stopped in front of the mansion, and Ye Sanlang jumped out and told his father: "Dad, if there are any visitors in the past few days, all visitors will be declined. I may have been targeted by the prince.
Ye Tianzheng was immediately confused. Isn't it because the prince cared so much about his third son that he sent his younger brother to visit him? When did he become the key to San'er again?
Seeing his father's confused look, he had no choice but to briefly tell what happened that day, but of course he hid Li Sihan.
"Is there such a thing? No wonder the prince is so nervous about your every move. Don't worry, I will definitely not let those hawks and dogs be like our Ye Mansion."
After the father and son finished speaking, they walked through the door of the mansion and walked in. As soon as they passed through several aisles and arrived at the hall, they heard the doorman shouting: "The official, Mr. Yang, is here!"
This official is Yang Shenjin, the county magistrate in the past ten thousand years. He is Li Linfu's party member. It is through Li Linfu's power that he can get the important position of official. I believe he can be promoted to the rank of official in a few years. The Minister of Civil Affairs is a real high-ranking official. In addition, although the Six Ministers have titles but no real power, the real power is almost all in the hands of the Minister. In the future, all officials in the world will have to look at his face to act. Such a high official didn't know why he suddenly visited his small residence.
Not long after, a middle-aged man in casual clothes came to the hall. When he saw Ye Tianzheng, he said: "Brother Tianzheng, it's been a long time since I last saw you. I have been busy with official duties recently. If we are free, we two brothers will come to see him again." Get drunk and then rest!"
"Brother Yang is out. Brother, I am short of everything but wine. If you are thirsty, I will welcome you at any time."
The two of them fought for a while and laughed, and then Yang Shenjin's eyes shifted to Ye Sanlang. He looked at Ye Sanlang up and down for a moment, nodded in approval and said: "Sure enough, a hero is born in a boy! I am the first person since the founding of the Tang Dynasty to It’s unexpected that someone at such a young age sits in a high position, it’s Saburo, so congratulations!”
Ye Tianzheng was confused when he heard this: "This..."
"Brother Tianzheng, you may not know that the emperor has appointed Sanlang as the supervisory censor not long ago. The official documents have been sent to Li Shilang. It is said that the emperor also gave Sanlang a secret order. It is not difficult to see that if one day, Sanlang will definitely do something good. I thought that Sanlang's body has not recovered yet, so I brought the red seal and official documents. Sanlang can register with me. In addition, I also brought an invitation from Lord Xiangguo. Take a look. , look at how many people are busy wanting to invite you."
During the Kaiyuan period, the Yang family had not yet brought trouble to Chang'an. At this time, there was only one person in charge of the prime minister, and that was the powerful right minister Li Linfu. How many people wanted to enter his house but could not, who would have thought that today an invitation was specially sent. Although the supervisory censor holds real power and Ye Sanlang is young, there are more useful people in the court. Why does he care so much about Ye Sanlang?
"Supervise... supervise the censor?" Like five thunders, Ye Tianzheng was shaken and almost couldn't catch his breath. Has the ancestor of the Ye family ever produced such a high-ranking official? There are quite a few people who have achieved fame through examinations, but who can achieve such a high position at such a young age?
Ye Sanlang quickly helped him: "I came back in a hurry. I haven't mentioned this matter to dad yet. I'm sorry." He turned around and nodded to Yang Shenjin, "Yuanwailang actually thinks about Sanlang like this. Sanlang is really ashamed. "He let go of Ye Tianzheng, knelt down and saluted, "Sanlang thanks Yuanwailang Yang!"
Yang Shenjin hurriedly helped him up: "What did Sanlang say? After so many years of friendship with your father, it is appropriate for me to come to visit." He turned around and nodded to the attendant behind him, who quickly took out the Several official documents were placed on the table with Zhu Ni.
In less than a stick of incense, Yang Shenjin and Ye Sanlang completed some of the formalities required to take office.
"In addition, this is an invitation from the Prime Minister. Thinking that you will recover today and be summoned by the Emperor, the Prime Minister has set the date for tomorrow. Sanlang must go then."
Ye Sanlang took the invitation with both hands and said: "This is inevitable. By the way, Yuanwailang, will you have dinner in the mansion? I will let my servants prepare it."
"No, no need." Yang Shenjin quickly declined. "My official duties are heavy, and there are still many official documents that have not been approved. I feel relieved to see that you are in good health. Sanlang is recovering well today, so I will take my leave first."
Although he said that, Ye Sanlang was not hungry at all. He winked at his father, and Ye Tianzheng followed Yang Shenjin out of the hall. The two of them talked and walked towards the door of the house. Ye Sanlang's thoughts at the moment were not with Li Linfu or Emperor Xuanzong. His thoughts were all tied to someone.
He ran back to the bedroom in two or three steps, but the room was empty. He suddenly remembered something, so he went out of the door and walked to the bedroom on the other side. After looking around for no one, he knocked gently. Knock on the door.
Just after hearing a "whoop", the door opened. Ye Sanlang walked in, but there was no one who opened the door. He also knew the reason, so he whispered: "There is no one outside, Miss Li, you can show up." ”
In front of him, a graceful figure slowly appeared in his eyes. This was the first time for him to meet face to face like this.
Although the woman had a peerless appearance, her face was as cold as frost, and she seemed not to be approached. She looked at Ye Sanlang and asked, "What are you doing in my room? Has the emperor summoned you? ?How did he say?"
"The emperor knows everything about what happened that day, but he has no intention of pursuing it. He also made me a supervisory censor and sent me to Jiangnan to perform tasks."
Li Sihan was a little surprised that he told everything about her: "Mr. Ye, are you too trusting of me? You can't just say this to your close friends, right?"
Unexpectedly, Ye Sanlang stared at her eyes and said firmly: "Miss Li, I can't hide anything from you. I don't speak like those literati and writers. I have always been impatient. If you offend me in any way, please say goodbye." Sorry. I, I want to marry you."
"!" When Li Sihan heard this, she was confused at first, and then her face suddenly turned from cold white to red. Growing up, many people had said this to her, but those guys had it in their minds. Very dirty. But the man in front of him looked at me so firmly, and the feeling he gave me was completely incomparable to those of those prodigal sons.
"What are you talking about! A prodigal, that's a beautiful idea! But if you save this girl's life, do you have to let me pay for it for the rest of my life?" However, I am really willing. she thought.
"Miss Li, don't get me wrong. I'm not talking about now, but the future. Ever since I saw that girl's face at Taibai Restaurant, your shadow has always been in my mind, and I can't get rid of it. Today at the In the royal study of Ganlu Palace, the emperor promised not to pursue the previous matter any further, and he also said that you would leave it to me..."
"Disposal? What do you want?"
"Don't get me wrong, I just met Du Youling, the Shanzan doctor of the East Palace. From his mouth, I learned that the prince is very concerned about my condition. I think he is probably concerned about your whereabouts and wants to silence you."
Li Sihan had spent some time under Li Heng, and she knew that this was most likely true, otherwise how could she, an unmarried woman, hide in the room of Ye Sanlang's fiancée...
"The Emperor sent me down to Jiangnan. I would like to ask you to be my unmarried wife and we can go down to Jiangnan together. We can wait until you have escaped for this period of time. I just don't know if you are willing?"
Li Sihan's face turned even redder. She pondered for a moment, nodded, and replied in a small voice that only she could hear clearly: "Yes, I am willing, but I have to agree first. I will go to Jiangnan with you just for I am not trying to avoid the limelight just to be your wife. If you do anything extraordinary, I will be rude to you...";
