Chapter 78 Send him to see the grandmother!
The emperor sighed quietly.
What kind of image do I have in her mind that makes her think that I would not even let go of a twelve-year-old girl!
Although I did have this idea, it was mainly for the sake of the country!
If I put her in the harem, I can see her at any time and hear her voice, which will also help me control the government.
But according to her voices these few times, if I really take her into the harem, it is estimated that on the day the imperial edict is delivered, she will be able to break into the palace and kill me.
The emperor coughed softly: "I plan to appoint you as a female official, the position of Hanlin Academy attendant, walk in front of Yu, and assign you to be on duty in Yu's study. What do you think?"
Although it was a question, the emperor's tone was very affirmative.
Tianqi was the first female official in history to walk before the emperor and serve him at his side.
This was a tremendous wealth, and anyone who heard of it would be grateful and grateful.
So the emperor did not think she would refuse.
There was a strange silence, during which the emperor's inner thoughts changed from: "Why hasn't she thanked me yet? She must have been so happy that she has lost her mind and hasn't reacted."
to: "Why hasn't she spoken yet? Is it because she thinks her position is too low, or has she sensed my intention?"
and then to: "Hurry up and say something! I'm so nervous, even if I say a few words in my heart, it will be fine!"
Finally, when the emperor couldn't help but speak, Jiang Zhiyu took a deep breath and said tactfully: "Your Majesty, has anyone made any slanderous remarks? The first female official of Tianqi is of great significance. I have no achievements and I am afraid that if I take the position rashly, many people in the court will be dissatisfied." In
contrast to her calm expression and tactful words, her inner voice burst out and the anger that was difficult to conceal.
[Don't let me know which little idiot did it! ]
[I can't bear the pain of getting up early! My resentment for getting up early is enough to make the Evil Sword Immortal destroy the world! ]
[Whoever dares to make me get up early, I will send him to see my grandmother! ! ! ! ]
The Emperor: "..."
He took a step back without a trace, and explained in vain: "How can there be no merit? Yan Ting has already told me that it was you who informed him of the earthquake in Mobei, and saved the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers of Tianqi. Such a great achievement, a small Hanlin Academy assistant, how could the ministers have any objection!"
Jiang Zhiyu's eyes sank.
[Okay, okay, it turned out to be that dog who did it, no wonder he was so much about it in the carriage that day! ]
[What else: I can't control the emperor's mind~! yue! 】
She scolded He Yanting bitterly, not noticing that the emperor quietly took two steps back.
Fuping, who was standing next to the emperor, said: "..."
Don't retreat, Your Majesty. If you retreat
any further, I will fall into the pond! Fuping would never dare to stand in the same row with the emperor. If the emperor took one step back, he would take two steps back.
His heels were already hanging in the air!
The emperor secretly congratulated himself for having brought He Yanting out, otherwise, Jiang Zhiyu would be scolding him now.
With the mentality of "a friend dies rather than a traitor dies", the emperor pushed all the blame onto He Yanting without any psychological burden: "Anyway, since Yanting strongly recommends, then the matter is settled. I will draft the decree, and you should prepare and start the court tomorrow."
The emperor left in a hurry after saying this. Behind him, Jiang Zhiyu's resentment seemed to have solidified into substance.
[He Yanting! You are dead!!!]
...
He Yanting, who was standing in front of the Sixth Prince's residence with a group of Jinyiwei, suddenly felt a chill all over his body.
Seeing him suddenly shudder, the leading Jinyiwei asked in confusion: "Master He?"
He Yanting came back to his senses, nodded slightly, looked at the magnificent mansion in front of him, and said calmly: "Search."
In the Jiaoxiang Palace, Concubine Yu dismissed the palace maids and eunuchs, leaned on the bed, and looked at Xiao Yanli with a worried look: "This, will this work?"
Xiao Yanli did not look at her, but concentrated on writing something on the table, and whispered: "The emperor's favor is unreliable after all. Didn't your mother see it? No matter how much favor you gave him before, he went to other palaces in the past few days, didn't he?"
Concubine Yu's eyes wandered: "But, according to the emperor's previous intention, he intended to depose the queen and establish me! Didn't you hear him say it himself that day? He just blamed me for not being able to manage the people in the palace and not being able to take care of the harem in the future, so..."
"Mother!" Xiao Yanli could no longer bear it and interrupted her, putting the pen in his hand on the table: "How can we believe the emperor's words? Is it so easy to depose the queen? What's more, the queen is not childless, she also has a prince!"
"As long as the prince is here, the queen's position will never be shaken!"
Concubine Yu bit her lip and retorted unwillingly: "That was in the past, when the emperor doted on the prince. Now the prince has been confined by the emperor for a month and has lost his favor!"
Xiao Yanli took a deep breath: "And there are ministers. Prime Minister Jiang is on the side of the prince. Now Prime Minister Jiang is highly valued by the emperor!"
"It's just a term of court officials. You will follow whoever is in power. What's the difference between you and the palace maids and eunuchs in this palace!"
Xiao Yanli's blood was boiling, and he turned his face away and stopped looking at her: "No matter what, you just need to give him this every day, and don't worry about anything else."
Yu Fei held the medicine bag in her hand, hesitated for a moment, and was about to say something when she heard a hurried voice outside shouting: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good, He Yanting took the Jinyiwei to raid the mansion of the Sixth Prince!"
What!
Xiao Yanli was shocked, and his mind was suddenly in a thousand turns.
Once the secrets in his mansion were found out, he would really be sentenced to death!
Even if he is a fool now, with the emperor's mind, he would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one go!
He no longer had time to think about how the news was leaked. A sinister look flashed in his eyes. He called the eunuch and whispered a few words.
"Go quickly, and make sure everything is done before they find the clues!"
The eunuch took the order and left. Concubine Yu didn't dare to speak. She blinked, her eyes slightly red: "But the matter was exposed? What should I do? I told you a long time ago not to have any contact with the Prince of Nangong, but you didn't listen..."
Xiao Yanli was already upset, and he became even more upset after hearing her say that. He glared at her and turned to walk behind the screen.
No matter if it was leaked or He Yanting was really well-informed and found out something, he would eventually die there!
...
In the Sixth Prince's residence, the maids and servants of the Manchu residence were kneeling in the middle of the courtyard, and the Jinyi Guards were going in and out of the courtyards. He Yanting stood in the study, staring at a portrait of a woman hanging on the wall.
The person in the painting had no face, and her clothes were not like Tianqi's style.
He reached out and took down the painting, and gently knocked on the wall.
A captain of the Jinyiwei army stepped into the room and said, "Master He, our brothers have already searched all the territory and there is no secret room."
He Yanting nodded, and his men pushed a brick in with force. With a click, the wall slowly turned over.
