In the end, Huang Qiong held back his anger and said, "You, in the future, when considering problems, you must look at the overall situation. The imperial court is responsible for surveillance, investigation, and arrest of everything in the world, and the commanders of Nanzhen Fusi have rebelled. What will other officials think? What will the people of the world think? It is true that Wen Taiyi's identity is kept secret, and he is only a second-rank Hanlin to the outside world."
"But even so, there are not a few people in the capital who know his true identity. These days, among those civil and military officials who have climbed to high positions, who is not a human sperm? Wen Taiyi's identity can indeed be hidden from some people. But those who are interested may not be able to hide it. No matter what the reason for his rebellion was, no matter how deeply he was involved, he joined forces with the rebel king. "
"If the death penalty is publicly imposed, how do you explain it to the world? If you tell the truth, it will probably immediately cause panic and even chaos among the courtiers. If you are prevaricating for a reason, do you think that kind of reason can excuse the punishment of a clan? Besides, he is The commander-in-chief of Nanzhen Fusidu, who is responsible for arrests and surveillance, has found out and mastered many dirty things about those dirty officials over the years."
"When he was arrested, those who were still in office were first worried about whether their affairs would fall into my hands. In normal times, I would not mind taking this opportunity to clean up the officialdom. But now, after all, Jiangnan The rebellion has not completely subsided. At this time, both the imperial court and I need stability more. If the imperial situation is really messed up, the only ones who will be happy are the rebel kings in Northern Liao and the south."
"Instead of causing turmoil in the court, it is better to send him on his way quietly. The more this kind of thing is, the more cautious it must be when dealing with it. What's more, he has been favored by the Supreme Emperor for many years, and he is a person whom the Supreme Emperor has single-handedly removed. . It can be said that he was the most trusted confidant in the court when the Supreme Emperor was in power. He doesn’t want face, but the Supreme Emperor still needs his face. At least he must leave a trace of dignity to the Supreme Emperor."
After all, he is a sensible person. After Huang Qiong finished speaking, Gao Huaiyuan thought about it carefully and immediately understood what this uncle meant. But before leaving, Gao Huaiyuan hesitated and said to Huang Qiong: "Your Majesty, the person from the Nangong family next to you seems to know Wen Ni. When the minister's subordinates escorted Wen Ni to face the king, Wen Ni I saw that man standing still for a long time."
"The two people kept looking at each other until Wen Ni was forcibly pushed away. Now that person is serving as the concubine's bodyguard in the palace, I am a little worried if she has a close relationship with Wen Ni. After learning about Wen Ni's death letter, It will do something unfavorable to you ladies. However, these people are personally invited by His Majesty and are not on the list of palace guards. How to deal with them depends on His Majesty's judgment."
Gao Huaiyuan's report stunned Huang Qiong. Nangong Zhen and Wen Tai also knew each other, which surprised Huang Qiong. But then I thought about it, one of Nanzhen Fusi's responsibilities was to monitor and apprehend Jianghu personnel. Although the Nangong family has now become a vassal of the Fan family, no matter what, it is still an aristocratic family and one of the targets of Nanzhen Fusi's surveillance.
As the commander of Fusi Capital in Nanzhen, it is not an accident that Wen Taiyi met a master from the Nangong family. However, what is the relationship between Nangong Zhen and this Wen Taiyi, what kind of relationship between the two people is, and how deep is it, I have to investigate it carefully. It wouldn't matter if these two people knew each other just because they were monitoring and being monitored.
However, of this man and woman, one looks gentle and elegant, and the other looks pretty even now, not only back then. Moreover, the age difference between the two people is not too big. Wen Tai is also slightly older, but not necessarily a few years older. What if these two people have a male-female relationship? If the two are truly lovers, even if they were once lovers, then Nangong Zhen cannot stay in the palace.
After waving his hand and signaling Gao Huaiyuan to carry out his instructions, Huang Qiong has been thinking about the relationship between Nangong Zhen and Wen Taiyi. Nangong Zhen and these female guards were specially recruited through the Fan family to protect her harem. If Nangong Zhen really has anything to do with Wen Taiyi, although it is their own business, it is related to the safety of their harem after all.
But this matter seems simple, but behind it is very complicated. Nangong Zhen recruited the Fan family herself, or Nangong Mei. If there is no conclusive evidence, it would be a bit hurtful to just send it away. Moreover, his relationship with the Fan family will be affected to some extent. But right now, with such a big event happening in Nanzhen Fusi, he still needs the cooperation of the Fan family.
After pondering for a long time, Huang Qiong finally gave up the idea of testing Nangong Zhen. That woman was arrogant and very smart. Nangong Mei's biological sister, no matter how bad she is, how much worse can she be? If I adopt a probing approach, it will be difficult to hide it from her, but it will easily lead to unnecessary troubles. Rather than being secretive, it would be better to ask Nangong Mei.
So Huang Qiong simply picked up the pen and wrote a letter directly to Nangong Mei. However, what Huang Qiong wrote in this letter was convoluted. Even if it's not straightforward, it's not too subtle either. In a word, even if it gives people a feeling of being shrouded in clouds and fog, it still gives people a rough look. As long as Fan Fan's head is not too stupid, he will know that there is something wrong with Nangong Zhen.
As for why this letter is written in such a cloudy and foggy way. It's because when Huang Qiong picked up the pen and was about to write a letter, he thought of Nangong Mei's strange and extraordinarily passionate expression when she was with him, and her expression of tears and complaints. When I think about it, it has been more than a year since I saw this beautiful woman. Huang Qiong thought of taking this approach to see if he could transfer a beautiful woman to Beijing.
Of course, in this letter, Huang Qiong concealed his dirty thoughts very well. What he wrote were all about Nangong Zhen's problems. As for his longing for the beauty, he didn't mention a word. I just put down my pen and remembered the last time the beautiful woman met me, and her extremely determined look when she said goodbye. Huang Qiong was hesitant again. He knew Nangong Mei's temperament very well.
If there is a problem, it must be solved. Especially this matter is related to the safety of his harem. Huang Qiong, who has lived in two lifetimes, is very aware of women's emotional way of thinking. Even if you were hurt too deeply in the past, as long as you still have the other person in your heart, you will still do anything for the other person. Judging from Gao Huaiyuan's report, if the two people really predicted that kind of relationship, their affection would not be too shallow.
Thinking of this, Huang Qiong still sent someone to deliver the letter eight hundred miles away. Looking at the sky, Huang Qiong did not comment on the mistakes, but got up and returned to the harem. In fact, although Huang Qiong considers himself a diligent person, he also knows that his diligence in government affairs is still much worse than when the old man was in office. At least I can't do it, I have to criticize and approve every day until late at night.
Although he basically does not stay overnight for memorials, he is generally unwilling to work overtime if there is nothing too urgent. Of course, this is also related to the fact that his efficiency in handling discounts is much higher than that of the old man. The few young ministers in the Military Aircraft Department he established are also very energetic, and they are even more methodical in handling government affairs. And he often gives Huang Qiong some unexpected surprises.
Especially Kou Zhun, who was extremely talented in government affairs, which Huang Qiong admired very much. These young ministers were very efficient and showed amazing talents when assisting him in handling government affairs. This naturally made him feel much more relaxed. Even after the old man heard that he had set up this military aircraft office, he once mentioned it to his mother in private, if he had thought of this method earlier.
At the beginning, I would not sleep later than a dog, wake up earlier than a chicken, and often make batches overnight. However, the old man didn't know whether this was really a need of the court or an idea that his son came up with just to be lazy and save trouble. With this military aircraft department, Huang Qiong felt a lot less worried. Although I often need to stay up late, there are also many times when I can get off work on time.
After returning to the harem, Huang Qiong had dinner at Situ Huanshuang's place, then held Situ Huanshuang in his arms, and talked for a while. Then he went to Zhang Yun'er's bedroom and had a conversation with Zhang Qiao'er and others. Seeing Zhang Qiao'er, she was still a little weak, and she really couldn't serve herself. Huang Qiong didn't want to force her too much, so she turned around and went to the Hu family's place to rest.
Seeing Huang Qiong's arrival, Mrs. Hu behaved normally, but Mrs. Liao's eyes were full of surprises. Mrs. Hu knew her daughter's thoughts. As her former sister-in-law, Wu had already given birth to a prince for Huang Qiong. Even though he was over forty years old, he gave birth to a princess for Huang Qiong. But among them, Liao, the youngest, has never been pregnant with a child.
Compared with himself and Wu, the number of times he was called to bed was also the least. Sometimes, she and Mrs. Wu were taken away by the chamberlain to sleep in other places. How could she, as a mother, not see the desolation in Ms. Liao's eyes when she was left behind. Especially after learning that Lin Wanqing's several young concubines, who had never been pregnant and were in a similar situation to hers, had also become pregnant one after another during this period.
My daughter has been feeling a little depressed all day long. Is there that woman in the world who doesn’t want to be a mother? Especially in this palace, not having children means not being favored. Not being favored means having no status, even the eunuchs in the palace can bully you. As for the future, there will be nothing to rely on. Although Mrs. Wu was her former sister-in-law, she also gave birth to a son to Huang Qiong.
But now, in addition to becoming sisters, our relationship with her has also become a rival to a certain extent. However, she gave birth to another daughter. Even if she wanted to take care of her in the future, she might not be able to do anything. And now that I have reached this age, this man has not forgotten me and you, and keeps calling me to sleep with him, but it is difficult for this child to be born again.
It's just that there's nothing I can do about it. I also went to Concubine He several times to try to persuade her, but it didn't seem to have much effect. Now, when this gentleman came to his palace, not only Mrs. Liao was very excited, but Mrs. Hu was also very happy. At least having a chance is much better than having no chance at all. Seeing the excitement in Hu's and Liao's eyes, Huang Qiong understood clearly.
After he returned to Beijing, among the three people with whom he had a close relationship, he summoned her to sleep with him the least often. But no matter what, she is still very young and is not in a hurry at this moment. I am young and young, and I have not agreed to have children for the time being. But then I thought about it, among the three people who were closely related to her, she was the only one who was not pregnant yet, so it was understandable that she was anxious.
That night, Liao was the one who worked the hardest when serving Huang Qiong. And in the end, under the pleading eyes of Mrs. Hu and Mrs. Liao, Huang Qiong finally followed Mrs. Liao's wishes. In the early morning of the next day, before leaving Hu's place, Huang Qiong held the woman in his arms and did some evil things before whispering in her ear and telling her to let things go and not be too persistent.
