Yuhua Palace? Where is Nangong Lizhu?

I raised my eyebrows unexpectedly.

If you want to talk about Nangong Lizhu - after all, she had a high-ranking father who was the Minister of War, and Nangong Jinhong's disciples were all over the court and the country, Pei Yuanhao paid great attention to these things and should not rely on the imperial concubine more on the affairs of the court, right?

However, today he went to Nangong Lizhu. Could it be that Nangong Lizhu is useful for this matter?

I waved my hand and asked the little eunuch to leave and walked back by myself.

Jingren's palace became quiet again. I sat back in front of the window and recorded another part of the "Divine Effects Collection". The snow outside the window became heavier and heavier. As soon as I looked up, I was fascinated by the snowflakes in the sky.

Just as he was watching in a daze, a figure appeared among the rising snowflakes.

I was stunned and looked closely and found that it was Pei Yuanhao.

He walked over from afar, and saw me directly facing my window.

Then, he stopped.

After pausing for a while, he did not continue to walk over, but turned around and walked towards the queen.

I was still sitting quietly by the window, watching his back disappear into the heavy snow, then placed my hand on the incense burner next to me, heated it up a little, and then continued to write.

It was written that at noon, Madam Wu and the others finally came to stop me. The imperial kitchen had already brought food. I took Miaoyan to have lunch, rested for a while, and then lay down to take a nap.

The room was so warm.

I fell asleep quickly and smacked my lips. I didn't rinse my mouth with tea after lunch, but drank a bowl of steaming sweet soup. At this moment, the tip of my tongue was also sweet. I tasted that sweetness and couldn't help but start to silently recite the "Divine Effects Collection" that I just recorded in a daze.

In the hazy, it seemed as if I saw someone holding a pen, writing quietly.

There was a smile on the corner of my mouth and I slowly opened my eyes.

In front of me was a familiar, somewhat blurred face.

When I realized who that face was, I felt like I had been stabbed with an injection. I suddenly woke up, opened my eyes wide and saw Pei Yuanhao sitting by the bed, looking down at me!

For a moment, my voice was hoarse and I couldn't speak, and I just looked at him in horror.

His face was almost two extremes with my dream just now. It was like picking me up from a pool of warm bath soup and throwing it into the ice water. I shivered for a moment, and finally found my voice: "You—"

"You should wake up."

He spoke coldly and interrupted me.

Of course I woke up, and I was completely awake.

Looking at me as if I was still scared, he was silent for a while, then looked at Miaoyan lying beside me, and his voice lowered a little: "Let her sleep for a while, get up first, I have something to say to you."

My heart was still beating, but I quickly got up and put on my clothes. Su Su and the others hurriedly brought hot tea and snacks. Looking at the exquisite pastries, Pei Yuanhao waved his hand lightly: "I have eaten at the queen, so don't use these."

Su Su glanced at me, and I turned my eyes silently, and she took the pastry down.

I finished sorting it out, then I saluted him, slowly sat opposite him, watching him drinking strong tea, frowned, as if he was having an ununable knot, and without talking much, I sat quietly with him.

After a while, he said, "Do you know what's wrong?"

I shook my head: "Minister girl doesn't know."

He seemed to sneer: "Didn't the people from Nishikawa tell you?"

"Xichuan?" I was a little strange when I heard this. Could it be that something happened to Xichuan?

I try to calm my mind: "Xichuan is thousands of miles away, and no matter what happens, it is something that women in the civilians can know at all times."

He snorted coldly from his nose.

However, his expression calmed down a little.

Then, he said: "Shaanxi Provincial Administration Secretary, was killed by a mob."

“…”

I was a little stunned for a moment and couldn't come back to my senses - I thought the one who had happened to Xichuan when he said something just now, but when he opened his mouth, it was the Shaanxi Provincial Administration Officer, and I was a little stunned.

After a while, he said, "Shaanxi? The Chief Secretary?"

He said coldly: "In the process of implementing the new policy, he encountered great resistance and could not continue to implement it several times. I sent a lot of people to help him, but I didn't expect-"

I don't know how to answer.

After all, we all know the resistance of the new policy. If you really want to complain, it’s not the turn to complain in front of me.

I thought about it and said calmly: "The resistance to the new policy is great, but the rent comes from the people, which is a bit strange."

He looked at me gloomyly and didn't say anything.

I continued, "Your Majesty's new policy was originally intended for the sake of all faiths. Not to mention whether the people are stupid, I am afraid that they are really fools, so that they will not be able to see who the implementation of the new policy will benefit whoever is not."

“…”

"Your Majesty the Emperor should know this better than the civilians."

He was silent for a while, his heavy breathing slightly lightened, and then he said: "The resistance does come from the people, but not because of the new policy, but because he failed to implement the new policy."

I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then, Lord General was killed..."

"He was killed, which was originally a trivial matter, and as soon as he died, I immediately asked someone to take over the government affairs of Shaanxi."

"Then, the emperor should have handled it properly."

"However, the censor I sent to the past was assassinated as soon as he entered Shaanxi."

“…!”

My heart thrusts again.

I just said that the Shaanxi Provincial Administration was killed, but I don’t think anything is there. After all, I have heard that many officials in conflict with the local people because of the ineffective implementation of the new policies, but the censor he sent was killed halfway through—

I asked subconsciously: "This censor is—"

"Qu Xueyi."

Qu Xueyi? Nangong Jinhong's nephew.

I suddenly understood why he went to Yuhua Palace just now.

It was not because of some major matter that he had to discuss with Nangong Lizhu, but because Qu Xueyi died, he wanted to go over and comfort the concubine.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! I thought about it and asked: "Is it the people of Shaanxi who are taking action?"

His eyes became cold again: "If it was really a mob, there would be traces to follow. But Qu Xueyi used to travel lightly and simply, and he did not show his identity along the way. Instead, he was killed as soon as he entered Shaanxi." He said, looking up at me: "Who do you think this is like?"

“…”

I calmed down: "I understand what Your Majesty means."

The Sichuan-Shaanxi region is connected, and with this matter, it is no wonder that he looked at me like this and asked me about this with such a move.

He pinched the teacup with one hand and almost gritted his teeth: "Do you know that I have just suppressed the use of military force against Xichuan!"

"……yes."

"If the people from Xichuan still cause such a thing for me at this time, what kind of trend do you think will be in the court?"

"The girl understands."

"I don't see that you understand!"

He was still angry, and I was not in a hurry to argue, but sat quietly, listening to his breath slowly and slowly slowing down, then he said softly: "The girl in the civilian understands that His Majesty the Emperor is worried that this matter will be used by some interested people in the court, and the matter of using troops to Xichuan will be mentioned again."

He had a calm face and didn't say anything.

"However, since the censor was assassinated, this is not a small case. It is best to verify it clearly before convicting it."

“…”

"If your Majesty is worried-" I looked up at him: "For this matter, the civilian girl can also go to find that friend who just came from Nishikawa and ask about it."

There was a hint of coldness in his eyes: "Are you sure you can ask?"

I smiled faintly: "If you say a folk girl, you can still use it."

“…”

He was silent for a long time and finally said, "Okay."

After saying that, he looked at me again and said, "But you have to know that this matter has a great impact on the current government. In a few days, I will let them have a good luck day and perform the ritual of farming in person. The matter of using troops to Xichuan will be re-mentioned."

“…”

"I don't want that day to come, things have not turned around yet."

"The girl understands."

As soon as I finished saying this, he stood up, shook his sleeves, turned around and walked out.

Su Su and Madam Wu, who had been waiting for the service outside, were stunned when they saw him walking out like this. Su Su couldn't react. Madam Wu hurriedly saluted, and Pei Yuanhao didn't even look at them, so he walked into the snow. Soon, only a row of footprints were left.

Su Su came back blankly: "What's wrong with the emperor today? He came in a hurry and left in a hurry? Usually he always had to get tired of it for a long time."

After hearing her words, Madam Wu turned her head and looked at me.

I smiled faintly.

Maybe it was last night that I asked me to go to the imperial kitchen to make some food. I am afraid that this matter cannot be hidden from him. For him, the imperial power is harmful, so he endured it in one breath. However, the tender and sweet scene could not be shown, so he naturally wanted to cool me down.

That's fine.

I'm fine if I put on such a scene, but I'm afraid he will take it more and more seriously every day.

I turned around and saw that Miaoyan was still asleep in the inner room. I said to Madam Wu, "Madam, don't let Miaoyan sleep for too long, I will get her up in another moment."

Madam Wu nodded and responded: "Miss, is she going out?"

"Um."

I nodded and asked Su Su to go and ask Eunuch Yu to arrange it for me, and then put on my clothes.

This time, I didn't wait long and soon prepared outside. I still didn't take anyone. When I reached the gate of the palace, there were already carriages in the palace waiting for me. I got on the carriage and quickly left the palace.

When I arrived at Tongquetai, the snow gradually became heavier. When I got off the car, I realized that the snow was trampled into a layer of ice at the door of my mansion and almost slipped.

And with a clang, the red painted door in front of me was opened.
