The truth makes sense, but Tang Shiyue still feels unsafe: "How do you know it won't happen? What if he does something during the exam? What if he does something that I can't see, and then makes my husband fail the exam?"
"What kind of tricks can make people sure to miss? Even the smelly shed is just disgusting." Yan Shirui asked back: "Moreover, if he wants to do anything, even if he can hide it from you, wouldn't Mr. Xu notice it? Where is the emperor?"
"
He patted her head: "Don't worry, the emperor obviously wants to use them, and he won't cause them to get into trouble. Lin Fujian is a smart man, and he won't fail to see it."
He paused for a moment: "Even if something happens, it will only happen after you become an official. It is inevitable and unavoidable to plot against each other in the court."
Tang Shiyue thought so and went to sleep. Yan Shirui pondered for a while and then went to find Yan Chengyuan.
Yan Chengyuan was still in the study, and Yan Shirui said straight to the point: "Dad, I'm wondering if you would like to adopt Tang Shirong as your adopted son?"
Yan Chengyuan frowned: "It's too early to say this now."
"It's late." Yan Shirui said: "The emperor wants to use Tang Shirong because he is Yue'er's brother, so both of them are named Tang or Yan. As for Yue'er, the emperor obviously wants her to recognize him.
The ancestors have returned to their clan, so Tang Shirong must have an explanation... Dad, it is most appropriate for you to recognize him."
Yan Chengyuan said: "How did you know that the emperor wanted to use something other than Xu Wenqu?"
"Probably not," Yan Shirui said, "Father, believe me, the emperor will definitely send Tang Shirong to Qinzhou. As for Xu Wenqu... I have contacted him. He is full of talents and plans. I guess
The emperor prefers him to stay in Chang'an."
He persuaded him in a gentle voice: "Father, Tang Shirong was honest, simple and upright, unlike Yan Liangchou, so you don't have to worry."
Yan Chengyuan said no more, and Yan Shirui withdrew.
In fact, Tang Shiyue went to bed early at night because she really planned to go to Deshan Garden. Why did she think she couldn't insist on it for three days before giving up her choice?
But no one in the family called her, and when she woke up, it was already three o'clock in the morning...
Tang Shiyue thought about it and felt that there was not much difference between persisting for one day and three days.
So she slept for a while, then got up to have lunch. After lunch, she sent someone to bring Xiao Guo'er and Xiao Yuan'er, and the three of them masturbated together for a while. Then Tang Shiyue suddenly had a whim and wanted to eat wafers.
cake……
So she went to the kitchen with her two little ones and two Gunguns, and guided Eunuch Liu to do it.
Eunuch Liu is not that old, he is white and lean, but he has a belly like a mantis. He is obviously a foodie.
While Tang Shiyue was instructing, he started to do it. Tang Shiyue took the two little ones to play with them for a while, and then came to see them again. By the fourth time, Eunuch Liu had already made the pancakes.
Already.
Then he asked his apprentice to whip the cream. Thinking that Emperor Ming Yan and Yan Chengyuan didn't like to eat too sweet food, Tang Shiyue also asked someone to make pureed yam, and smashed dried fruits and chopped walnuts to make the topping.
When Meng Min came over, he saw three people standing at the door of the kitchen, each holding a small plate to eat.
Meng Min was helpless and went over to collect the plates: "The emperor is here. He is in the east study."
Tang Shiyue said oh, washed his hands, took two kinds of wafers and went over.
Emperor Ming Yan was sitting there drinking tea while looking at the words she had written in the past few days.
As soon as Tang Shiyue put the wafers on the table, he leaned over and said, "Yeah! I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you so much."
Emperor Ming Yan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Guarding your biological father, do you still remember me?"
These words were so sour that Tang Shiyue was happy. She hugged his arm and rubbed it, then took out the wafer cake and asked him to taste it.
She asked someone to make some small silver forks, which had one more tooth than the current fruit fork. They were very convenient for eating snacks. Emperor Ming Yan tasted them and said, "Not bad."
"Not bad!" Tang Shiyue was very happy, "You all like to eat this kind of snack that is crispy and not too sweet."
Emperor Ming Yan nodded.
Tang Shiyue was a little strange and looked at his face: "Aye, aren't you happy?"
Emperor Ming Yan did not answer, but pressed his hand on her head. After a while, he said: "Do you still remember that the person who harmed you agreed?"
Tang Shiyue nodded, and Emperor Ming Yan sighed in a low voice: "I originally thought it was just an ordinary palace secret. After I went back, I arrested the nanny next to her. I couldn't find anything, so I simply arrested her too.
Yes. She confessed that she was paired with a eunuch in the Yonghe Palace..."
He paused and then changed his words: "I am from the same hometown as a eunuch, and that eunuch was executed by my order because of his incompetence in doing things. She wanted to kill you because of her grudge. And the eunuch's brother gave her the medicine, and even the imperial doctor
The cause of the disease cannot be found.”
"But when I sent people to arrest the 'brother', I couldn't find him at all, and after investigation, I found that the eunuch didn't have a brother at all. Until now, I didn't notice anything was wrong, just because these people harmed
I hate you deeply, so I ordered a thorough investigation. Who knows..."
He let out a long sigh: "Who knew that one of the people Cheng Yuan caught two days ago was actually that person! So I became suspicious and asked people to search the person's home. I found a small bottle of secret medicine and found a death row prisoner to test it. As long as
One drop, in just a moment, can cause sudden death, with no cause of death found."
Tang Shiyue looked at him in astonishment.
Emperor Ming Yan's voice was trembling, "I just checked the palace case today. My Liulang and the third princess..."
Tang Shiyue was heartbroken and held his hand, "Aye! Aye, don't be sad."
Emperor Ming Yan closed his eyes slightly, and then said after a while: "I don't know when these people sneaked into the palace. If it weren't for chance, Yue'er, you had a strange dream to warn you, I'm afraid I still wouldn't be aware of it until today.
"He smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Looking at his expression, Tang Shiyue really didn't know how to comfort him.
She whispered: "But why do they do this?"
Emperor Ming Yan said: "The mountain is in a special location. It is very close to the West City Gate, but the journey is relatively quiet. I guess that these rebels probably chose that place to stay, waiting for opportunities to plot evil. I don't know how long they have been there."
Tang Shiyue held his hand tightly and suddenly asked: "Sixth Master and Third Princess, how long has this been going on?"
Emperor Ming Yan was slightly startled, "If the third princess had lived to this day, she would have been eighteen years old. Liulang and Wulang were the same age and were not yet one year old when they died."
In other words, the latest one was thirteen years ago.
Tang Shiyue asked: "Is it possible that these people gave up harming the people in the palace after discovering the silver mine?"
She looked at him quietly: "Aye, killing the emperor's heir is not like a method, but more like revenge. But people who have nothing dare to do anything, and people who sit on gold mountains are willing to risk their lives.
There aren’t many.”
Although her guess was baseless, it had to be said that Emperor Ming Yan felt much more at ease when she said this.
This feeling of being surrounded by tigers and wolves watching is really terrible. (To be continued)
