It was the sound of the afternoon breeze rustling through the treetops, the mottled city walls and clumps of flowers, stones, vegetation, and the fragrance that continued to shine out; although the sense of emptiness without any trace left Madam Zheng filled with the same sense of panic and fear; But she finally chose to believe and never opened her eyes.
It wasn't until the feeling of contact that landed on the ground again that she was instantly freed from this strange feeling; "Okay." Following Jiang Tian's call, she suddenly found that she had returned to a tower within the high wall of the East Palace. On the pavilion, I couldn't help but feel frightened and relaxed, so I suddenly fainted and fell down.
When Jiang Tian saw the two large groups rushing down on each other, he only had time to let out a cat's meow before he was squeezed tightly between them, almost out of breath. At this moment, there was only one adjective in his mind: "Taishan weighs the top"; he didn't expect that Mrs. Zheng usually wears tight clothes.
He has a simple and unassuming appearance, but after opening up his mind, he is still quite confident; so much so that Jiang Tian is overwhelmed by this broad mind, leaving only a cat head that can barely get out; However, next she seemed to lie motionless.
Only the sound of continuous and shallow breathing and the pulsation through the thick material showed signs that she was alive. But for Jiang Tian, this is a kind of continuous oppression and torture. Therefore, after confirming that the other party was temporarily unconscious, he had to work hard to find a space.
However, as Jiang Tian struggled to move his claws and struggled outwards to get out, a strange throbbing filled his body, making his movements softer and more rhythmic. It's like stepping on soft clouds, or like gently kneading and picking cotton balls.
In Jiang Tian's subconscious mind that continued to spread, he could even vaguely see a soft white belly; When Mrs. Zheng woke up again, she saw the girl standing beside her eagerly, and she couldn't help but said softly: "Wan'er".
After the mother and daughter hugged their heads and cried and talked for a while, Madam Zheng calmed down her sorrowful expression, faced Jiang Tian who was squatting beside her, solemnly bowed her head on the bed and said: "I have no body shape, and I have always been grateful to you for your advice." , He has given a helping hand time and time again; his kindness is as great as a mountain, even if his body is shattered to pieces..."
"This is all because of the causal involvement between Wan'er and I, and you are just doing a little extra work." Jiang Tian shook his head and said, "But it can't be without cost." After hearing this, Madam Zheng said with relief: " As long as I have everything in my body, it doesn’t matter my life span or my luck.”
"As long as you have an idea." Jiang Tian waved his paws and interrupted: "But the focus at the moment should be, what is the other party's deliberate intention to frame your mother and daughter at the same time? What possible back-ups are there, and Where do you need to take precautions and reflect on yourself?"
"Sir, what you said is true." Madam Zheng also tried to calm down her emotions and said: "I am stupid, I just feel that this person is so unscrupulous and trying to destroy my reputation, I am afraid that I will have more plans for the East Palace; but I am a widowed criminal. Even if I am humiliated because of this, how can I use it to my advantage?"
"Then you are too arrogant to belittle yourself." Jiang Tian shook his head and said: "Zheng Niang is not only a member of the editing bureau's inner department, but also a teacher in the inner study hall, and is also the treasurer of the imperial concubine. responsibility; in fact, it has become a link that affects many parties invisibly."
"So, a convict wife with a oil bottle is of no importance; but a mother and daughter who are valued by the East Palace, carefully cultivated, and entrusted with important positions are completely different. Have you not been there all along this journey? Any conflicts or jealousy caused by this?"
"From a superficial point of view, who can directly or indirectly benefit from this matter is an intuitive suspect? But this is only the first level of purpose and possibility. Next, a female official who is valued by the princess, and the subordinates of the East Palace. The official had a secret meeting inside the palace and was caught red-handed?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Zheng's face couldn't help but change, and she hesitated to say anything. However, Jiang Tian continued: "Once someone is confirmed, what does it mean? If the past is small, it is enough to threaten you personally." The main reason is that the atmosphere in the East Palace is corrupt and the palace is not dignified."
"If someone uses this to make the matter bigger, and suffers personal humiliation and ruins his reputation, can he use this to accuse a subordinate in the East Palace of being lax and giving secrets to each other? Or even use it to accuse and defile the palace. "Now that the prince happens to be away, isn't it hard for Concubine Pei to take the blame?"
"At that time, even if the prince wants to protect himself, he will have to avoid suspicion. Not only will Zheng Niang be unable to take on the many responsibilities she holds, but even the editing bureau itself will be questioned as to whether it is harboring filth. The reason? He even attacked many new policies with his corrupt personal ethics."
"But this is not the worst result..." At this point, Jiang Tian looked at Yi Wan'er meaningfully again: "The worst result is that someone tries to coerce and blackmail her on the pretext of accomplishing a good thing and preserving her reputation. As for you, by the way, I can arrange a stepfather for Wan'er."
"Then, use this as a breakthrough point to drive a wedge into the East Palace. Slowly start with small things, and ask you to act as eyeliners and ears, informing many of the details of the East Palace's affairs; or act as potential internal agents; do so at critical moments What do you want? Do you agree or not?"
"..." After hearing this, Madam Zheng's face became even more bleak: "That concubine only wants to die!" "It's easy to die!" Jiang Tian shook his head again and said: "But what about Wan'er? Are you willing to abandon her? What's more, this doesn't mean it's a clean slate; a dead person can't defend himself, so it's best to slander him."
"Mom, are you going to abandon Wan'er too?" At this moment, the girl quickly hugged Madam Zheng tightly and said sadly: "Do you want Wan'er to bear everything in this world on her own?" Madam Zheng calmed down and said, "How can I be willing to leave Wan'er?"
At this time, an announcement came from outside at the right time: "The Crown Princess has arrived!" When I saw the Crown Princess Pei again, she was still dressed in palace attire with half-arms of silk and a colorful skirt; but the lingering thought The slight depression and sadness between her brows seemed to have dissipated a lot.
"Zheng Zhangshu, it's great that you are safe and sound." She looked at Mrs. Zheng with a little concern and said: "Thieves in this generation are really bold and reckless, and they dare to plot against the enemy. But please rest assured, Zhang Shu." Recuperate. After being summoned, I sent someone to the inner courtyard of Shangshi."
"We rescued Sun Naidian, who was drunk and kidnapped, and also captured the eunuchs who gathered in a crowd to commit adultery. In addition, dozens of people including the chef of the inner courtyard and below were detained on the spot pending trial; this time Regardless of whether the matter is public or private, I am bound by my duty and will give you a good explanation;"
"Thank you for your strength, I am very grateful for it." Madam Zheng also calmed down again, hugging her daughter with infinite tenderness and said: "This matter is because I was careless and went out of the palace without authorization; this almost led to a regrettable incident. I’ll tell you the truth, I left the banquet because I got a message from my eldest brother.”
"Is it Zheng Taichang?" Princess Pei was also slightly startled: At this time, a young eunuch with a cold and stern appearance walked up to her and whispered a few words; Pei's face darkened slightly: "So fast , Li Xiang'er, who was delivering messages for others, just drowned in Penglai Pond?"
"But this matter is not so easy to resolve." Then Pei said solemnly: "The participants in this private meeting must be re-examined; especially those who initiated the banquet and were responsible for the party in the name of welcoming the new year. The person who invited me. If you ask why, just say that someone’s personal belongings were stolen.”
However, the next moment, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the black raccoon flower squatting in the bed tent, and her expression changed slightly. She then said calmly: "Everyone else, please step aside. I have something to ask in detail; Yang Huang You are responsible for guarding the door. Anyone who dares to break in will be punished for violating the prohibition."
After everyone retreated one by one, closed the doors and windows and left, Ms. Pei faced the black raccoon flower that did not shy away and stared at her instead, showing a humble and polite expression and said: "At this moment, Li Sheng, whom His Highness has never forgotten and cherished for a long time, has come to the world again."
"Not bad!" Jiang Tian then twitched his tail, slowly jumped up to the bedside shelf in front of her, and looked down condescendingly: "Ms. Pei, how is His Royal Highness doing? Have you followed your instructions and taken good care of your body? How to avoid excessive preparation and effort?..."
"...but thank you for the last resort Li Sheng left." When hearing the long-awaited reply, Mr. Pei breathed a sigh of relief as if he had received an amnesty: "Although His Highness has relapsed several times since then, he has always been I have recovered from it now; when the weather gets warmer, there is no risk of recurrence."
"Now that I have regained some of my energy, I have some spare energy to take Meng Fengyu and others to the Eastern Capital to celebrate the eternal birthday of the saint." At this moment, Mr. Pei seemed to be feeling too depressed in his heart. Many worries and secrets were poured out in front of him.
First of all, the "Ancient News and Jin Yao" and its supplements published by the Editorial Bureau have been distributed to more than 100 states and cities across the country; and based on the discovery and textual research of oracle bone inscriptions, it has set off a huge wave of heated discussions among the government and the public; It also brought Prince Li Hong unparalleled honor and considerable influence.
Even in addition to many academic masters and famous Confucian scholars of the time, including the contemporary Yasheng Confucius, the Yan family, the Meng family and other descendants, they also took the initiative to request to join; just to obtain a nominal qualification, so as to participate in this event It is a grand event of contemporary holy religion that distinguishes between ancient and modern times and rectifies the original.
Therefore, some people have compared this vigorous trend with the Xiping Stone Classic handed down by the officials of the Eastern Han Dynasty in ancient times, and called it the "Shangyuan Shengjiao Zhenzhen Conference". He also compared the "Ancient and Modern News" founded by the prince Li Hong with the "Selected Works of Zhaoming", which was "bad in its anthology and only half a scholar".
