174. Don't go to court
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, the ministers will definitely send someone to keep an eye on them when they return. They must not be allowed to have an accident, so that the minister can make a military order. If the minister can't do it, please deal with it yourself. Nian Ming smiled and assured Diandu
"Why did you say this, I just asked you to send someone to keep an eye on them, and I didn't say that there was any punishment for failure. There's no need for you to make such a military order with me. Dian Du said to Nian Ming with a smile.
"In any case, if the minister can't do it, the minister is willing to personally apologize to His Majesty with death."
"You don't have to, I'm sure you'll do better. And everyone remember to send about ten people to keep an eye on them, and don't let them out of your sight. If you let them out of sight, just dispose of them, there is no need to report as if they are reporting, after all, people with such skills can't stay. ”
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, after the minister goes back, he will definitely tell them to deal with them as soon as possible if there is any change, and they will not leave any trouble."
"I know, if I don't have anything else to report, go down first! I'm tired and need to rest. Dian Du said to Nian Ming with a tired face.
"Then Your Majesty will retire first."
"I know it's so late, and you haven't rested yet! Hurry up and get some rest! Dian Du said to Nian Ming with a smile.
After saying that, Nian Ming walked out of the imperial study alone, and then Wei Zhongxian asked Dian Du with a smile: "Your Majesty still wants to arrange an early dynasty today?" ”
"I won't arrange the morning court for the time being, I'm tired and hurry up and prepare, I'm going to rest."
"Then Your Majesty, are you going back to your heart or to the harem?"
"Let's go straight back to the heart! I won't go for the time being, after all, it's almost dawn. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty." After speaking, Wei Zhongxian came to the outside of the heart.
Then Wei Zhongxian opened the door to nourish his heart, and then said to Dian Du with a smile: "Your Majesty, the old slave went to enjoy the lanterns first, and after enjoying the lanterns, I came to lead you in." ”
"No need, let's just go inside!" Diandu said to Wei Zhongxian in a flat tone.
"Your Majesty, let me hold the lamp first! After all, you are a daughter, if you bump into the old slave, how can you explain to the adults? ”
"It's okay, even if it's so dark, I can still see the way, so take me in!" Dian Du said to Wei Zhongxian with a smile.
Soon the two of them walked into the heart at the same time, and after entering the heart of the heart, Wei Zhongxian took the lead in lighting the lamp. Soon the whole heart became brighter.
Then Wei Zhongxian said to Dian Du with a smile: "Your Majesty's entire heart has been lit up, you can rest in peace." ”
"Okay, I know, you can go down and rest first, it's not getting early lately. You see, it's almost dawn, and if you don't rest, you won't have time to rest. ”
"Your Majesty, you can rest assured that the old slave also has some ability as a cultivator, so it is okay to not rest for a few days and nights, but Your Majesty, you are different. You are the ruler of the world, and you have to deal with some complicated animals, so this is very brain-consuming, so it doesn't matter if the brain slave doesn't rest, but Your Majesty, you must rest well, otherwise you will make a wrong decision, which will harm others and harm yourself. ”
"Okay, I know, you can go down and rest for a while, and remember to inform them that today's morning court will not be opened." Dian Du said to Wei Zhongxian with a smile.
"Your Majesty, just rest quickly! The old slave retired first. Wei Zhongxian said to Diandu with a smile.
"Go, and don't forget what I've told you. And remember to send that piece of music out of your hand, don't let anyone find out. After all, that is a matter of secrecy, and if the enemy knows about it, it won't be good, do you understand? ”
"Your Majesty, old slave, if you know the situation, don't worry, I will definitely do what you instruct."
"With your words, I can rest assured, it's not too early, I'll rest first." Dian Du said to Wei Zhongxian with a smile. After speaking, Wei Zhongxian left Yangxin.
After Wei Zhongxian left Yangxin, Dian Du rested alone.
In the early morning, the morning bell rings in the palace. At this time, all the ministers also packed up their court clothes and entered the meeting hall in the palace.
After about a cup of tea, Weiyang was full of courtiers. And these courtiers are all talking and laughing.
Shangshu of the Criminal Department said to Zhuge Liang with a smile: "Lord Zhuge I heard the jailer guarding the prison say that at dawn today, the people of the Jinyi guard escorted hundreds of prisoners to the prison, I don't know who these people are, but they explained that they must guard these people and don't let them escape, Prime Minister Zuo, do you know what these people are?" ”
"Shouldn't the people of Jinyiwei have already arrested all those involved in this matter?" Pang Tong said with a smile.
"Huge man, what are you talking about? I don't know! ”
"I don't know if it's going to be true, let's wait and see what happens! After all, if this matter leaks out, it may cause a big shock. Zhuge Liang said in a flat tone.
"Since this matter is top secret, then I won't ask more. After all, if Your Majesty hadn't said anything about it, I wouldn't have dared to ask. ”
"Since Your Majesty has put those people in prison, maybe after a while, you will be busy."
"Since they are in prison, it means that they are guilty, and Lord Ben will definitely deal with them strictly according to the law." Man Pet said in a somewhat ruthless tone.
The people around him couldn't help but tremble slightly after hearing Man's words. After all, the murderous reputation of full favor is known as iron-faced and selfless, even if anyone asks for it, it is useless. So after they heard the words of full favor, they also knew the fate of those people.
"Okay, His Majesty should be almost there, so let's go back to my place." After speaking, Zhuge Liang stood back in his position, and Pang Tong also took his place. After all the courtiers saw that Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong had already stood up, they also returned to their respective positions.
Soon it was time for Diandu to go to court, but at this moment, a man dressed in eunuch clothes walked out of the small yellow door. And this eunuch is Wei Zhongxian.
Just after Wei Zhongxian walked under the dragon chair, Zhuge Liang asked Wei Zhongxian with a smile: "Father-in-law Wei, why are you alone today?" What about Your Majesty? ”
"The miscellaneous family is only here to convey His Majesty's will, as for other things, the miscellaneous family is not clear." Wei Zhongxian said to the courtiers with a smile.
"What is the will of His Majesty Gonggong Wei? Need to come in person. ”
"Your Majesty's dictation will not be on today's morning court, so please go back!"
"Grandpa Wei, didn't Your Majesty always go to court on time before? Why don't you come today? ”
"Yes, how can His Majesty Gonggong Wei not go to court for Mingjun!" After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, Pang Tong also said.
"Your Majesty may still be resting at this time, so please don't disturb Your Majesty. And Your Majesty goes to court on time every day, can't Your Majesty rest for a day? ”
"But that's not okay, we all have some things that need to be reported to Your Majesty in person! If His Majesty does not go to court, how can we report these things to him? Cai Yong said with a smile.
"The miscellaneous family has already made it clear, so don't say it again. If you have anything to report, just write an excerpt and the miscellaneous family will hand it over for you. Wei Zhongxian said to the courtiers with a stiff attitude.
And all the courtiers had no choice but to give up after hearing Wei Zhongxian's tone. After all, they are only courtiers, and they do not have the right to directly order the court. So they could only honestly go back and write a recital, and let Wei Zhongxian help them hand it in.
"Do you have any doubts, you need to answer your questions."
After Wei Zhongxian asked about the situation, no one answered Wei Zhongxian. Then Wei Zhongxian smiled and said to the courtiers: "Since the adults have no doubts, then retreat from the court!" After saying that, Wei Zhongxian left from the little yellow gate.
"His Majesty Kong Ming is not going to court today, so what should we do about that matter? If His Majesty does not go to court, how can we report to him? Why didn't you continue to persuade Gonggong Wei just now to let His Majesty go to court? Pang Tong said to Zhuge Liang with a smile.
"Shi Yuan, do you think Your Majesty didn't think of it? I have already handed over the fold to His Majesty three days ago, so I am sure that His Majesty will reply in the next few days. So you don't have to worry. Zhuge Liang replied to Pang Tong with a smile.
"It turns out that Your Majesty has already thought about it, so let's not disturb Your Majesty's rest." After speaking, all the courtiers left Weiyang one after another.
Soon Zhuge Liang returned to his mansion, and Wei Zhongxian returned to his room after everyone left Weiyang.
Soon Wei Zhongxian took out a sealed box from his room, and then walked towards Zhuge Liang's mansion with two little eunuchs.
After about a stick of incense, he took the two little eunuchs to Zhuge Liang's mansion.
The porter of Zhuge Liang's mansion immediately trotted in to report to Zhuge Liang after seeing Wei Zhongxian coming.
After Zhuge Liang heard the news, he personally came to the mansion to greet Wei Zhongxian.
Zhuge Liang smiled and said to Wei Zhongxian: "Father-in-law Wei, you are in such a hurry to bring people here, what is my mansion for?" ”
"This is what His Majesty asked me to pass on to you, saying that you will understand after reading it." After speaking, Wei Zhongxian handed over the sealed wooden box to Zhuge Liang.
