Chapter 302 Go Back

In the court, the aristocratic family headed by Grand Tutor Zhang gradually faded away.

It was as if he was hit by Pei Luoshu and had no power to fight back.

Pei Luoshu had a sense of being adrift and unreal.

It was really too easy. It was not like before, where they pressed forward step by step and attacked Chen Shiyi fiercely, forcing him to hide Shiyi before stopping.

In fact, he just lost.

But now, those important positions in the court have been gradually replaced by his people, but they are coping very poorly.

This unusual incident made him unable to sleep or eat.

He asked Wen Zhiheng.

Wen Zhiheng thought for a moment and said.

"Your Majesty, the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. We cannot predict what they will do next. It is always right to strengthen our own defense. We should take things one step at a time and see what happens."

"Taifu Zhang has been staying at home lately, using illness as an excuse, and has turned a blind eye to the affairs of the court. On weekdays, he comes to the study most frequently, and I get a headache every time I see him."

Wen Zhiheng bowed his head and said respectfully.

"Your Majesty, if you have a headache, remember to ask Doctor Yu to check your pulse."

Pei Luoshu felt annoyed when he saw that he looked as if it had nothing to do with him.

"I suddenly remembered something. It's been a long time since I last heard it. I've always wanted to ask you, on New Year's Eve last year, you sent her a feast in Qingzhou?"

Wen Zhiheng thought about it.

"Xi Mian? Oh, that's for Wen Zhirou."

Pei Luoshu chuckled.

"Your sister went back to Kyoto to celebrate the New Year."

"Yes, it was originally sent to Wen Zhirou. I had planned to spend the New Year with her in Qingzhou, but she came back later. I didn't have time to clear the banquet I had booked, so I sent it directly to her. Your Majesty, don't worry. I know what to do and what not to do, and I will definitely not break the rules."

Pei Luoshu looked at Wen Zhiheng and said softly.

"Really?"

"nature."

"When Eleven wrote to inform me, I thought that the Prime Minister was a role model for all officials and would never do something so immoral."

"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty."

"Wen Zhiheng, do you think they have already known about Eleven's existence and are planning to attack her?"

"Even if they knew, they probably wouldn't attack her and make enemies with Your Majesty. After all, Your Majesty's first wife has passed away, and Your Majesty's position as queen is still vacant."

"When do you think it would be best to bring her back?"

Wen Zhiheng thought for a while.

"Anytime, Your Majesty. Difficulties exist all the time, but you can't leave her far away because of these. The struggles in the court are men's business. How can a woman bear it? Your Majesty, I advised you to force her to be the queen. After all, she is your first wife. Love is the most important thing. No one in the world can say anything. She died falsely and left Kyoto. In terms of countermeasures, she was already inferior. Now, Your Majesty, there must be a reason to take her back, and that is to select the beauty. Since you are selecting the beauty, it can't be just her."

Pei Luoshu's eyes gradually became deeper.

"You are more thoughtful than I am."

Wen Zhiheng said respectfully.

"Your Majesty, isn't it me you are asking about? As a humble servant receiving a salary from the imperial court, I will certainly help Your Majesty to share your worries and solve your problems."

Pei Luoshu felt that he could no longer talk to Wen Zhiheng because he was too cunning.

No wonder he has been able to remain standing in the court for so many years.

Pei Luoshu picked up his pen and wrote a letter to Chen Shiyi, asking her to take care of the things on hand recently and come back to Kyoto after finishing them, and not to leave.

When Chen Shiyi received the letter, she was at Situ Yu's house, having breakfast with Ping'er.

Ping'er's condition has improved a lot. She can stay in the daytime longer and longer, and gradually she can last until noon.

This is a very good thing.

"Yun Cang, thank you for doing so much for Ping'er. It's all thanks to you that he is doing so well now."

Chen Shiyi waved his hands.

"I have nothing to do anyway, and I like children, so I am willing to play with him."

Mrs. Situ said.

"Well, Ping'er, now he calls you every day. You make new toys for him every day and take him out to play. He is really clinging to you."

Chen Shiyi said with a smile.

"I won't be here long, and I won't be able to get used to him anymore."

Situ Yu frowned slightly.

"You want to leave?"

"Well, I received a letter and I have to go back to Kyoto."

Mr. and Mrs. Situ were stunned for a while.

Situ Yu said.

"What a pity! I thought you were my best friend, but if you go back this time, I'm afraid you'll never see me again in your lifetime."

It was very rare for Chen Shiyi to hear Situ Yu speak like this.

"I am grateful to Mr. Situ for thinking highly of me. It is my great honor to be your close friend. I will definitely make time to come and see you in the future."

Instead, Ping'er, who was standing by, grabbed Chen Shiyi's hand.

"You must come back. I want you to take me to Fengming Mountain."

Chen Shiyi pinched his nose.

"Okay, I will."

During these two days, Chen Shiyi was collecting his own things, but Fu Da was too lazy to move.

"What's wrong?"

"Are you really going back?"

"Well, he wrote me a letter. Maybe the court is becoming more stable. I have been separated from him for a long time, so naturally I have to go back."

Fu Da was very impatient.

"Don't clean up here, I'll stay here."

"Jingran has returned to Anzhou. Won't you feel lonely here alone?"

"I'm used to it."

"Oh, I'm going to Yuanzhou to see how Shen Wuyang's case is going. After I'm done, I'll go back to Kyoto from there."

Fu Da thought about it.

"You're going to Wonju? Then I'll go too."

Chen Shiyi looked at him in confusion.

"You are becoming more and more strange. You are a grown man, but your mind keeps changing."

Fu Da turned his head away, not wanting to talk to Chen Shiyi.

On the way to Yuanzhou, Chen Shiyi thought that after finishing things here, he would return to Kyoto as soon as possible to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with Pei Luoshu.

The family is reunited and the meaning is good.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived in Yuanzhou, she received a letter sent by pigeon from Qingzhou.

Something happened to Situ Yu.

She had just had a meal with Bailing, Boyuan and others in Yuanzhou, and then rode back to Qingzhou immediately.

Fudan University was puzzled.

"What on earth is going on?"

Chen Shiyi shook his head.

"The letter only said that Situ Yu was sent to prison, and did not provide any other details."

"The letter was sent by Qi Lan. He was a dead man before. It's so urgent. I'm afraid it must be a very big deal."

Chen Shiyi looked solemn.

"You are right. We should hurry up and try to reach Qingzhou within three days."

Just arrived at Wancheng, Qingzhou, and met Qi Lan at the entrance.

Qi Lan looked extremely nervous.

"The day after you left, Mr. Situ and his family were taken away by a group of soldiers from the government office. The charge for their arrest was that Mr. Situ had written an anti-imperial book and was a remnant of a cult. Fengmingshan Academy was a cult that had deceived students and intended to kill them. Moreover, they found evil objects in Fengming Academy, and the evidence was solid!"
