The room was full of medicinal smell, Cen Lian's face was pale, she coughed violently, and her eyes were dull. Several female soldiers from Guangxi came with them, crying and handing over the medicine bowls, and using the local dialect of their hometown, they issued vicious curses to some people, but then in exchange for Cen Lian's anger

"I ...... I don't allow you to say that about him. He is my husband, and you have no respect for him...... I...... I'm going to make you eat the whip. ”

"Miss, as long as you get better quickly, it's okay to kill us. But since you arrived in Jingshi, he has snubbed you, and he hasn't come to see you for a long, long time, and he should ...... you so sick."

Before the bold female soldier could finish speaking, Cen Lian rolled her eyes and fainted in anger. Several female soldiers hurriedly rescued in fright, and the culprit cried and pleaded, "Miss, don't scare me, I won't say anything again, don't say anything." ”

The door was suddenly opened, Yang Chengzu pushed the door in, Cen Lian had just been rescued, and after seeing Yang Chengzu, he turned his head against the wall and did not face him. Several female soldiers were driven out, Yang Chengzu sat on the edge of the bed, and said with a smile: "What, you are angry with me, and you refuse to even show me face?" ”

"No...... Ahem...... No, it's that my current appearance is too ugly, and my husband doesn't like me even more after reading it. You go find those female soldiers to accompany you, or go to someone else's room, and you can come back when I am well. ”

"You are so disobedient, you don't even want to take medicine, how can your body be better?" Yang Chengzu suddenly grabbed Cen Lian's shoulders and turned her around, so that Cen Lian had to face Yang Chengzu. Seeing her bleak appearance and lack of energy, Yang Chengzu smiled bitterly, "It seems that this is indeed my fault." ”

"No...... This is not to blame the husband, it is the climate, water and soil, and it has nothing to do with the husband. I have already written a letter, if I die, it will be my own life, I can't blame my husband, and Abba will not be angry with my husband because of this. He will choose another beautiful sister from the clan to send to you and continue to be your concubine. As for me, I hope that after I die, I can become a real lark, chirping on the shoulders of my ancestor every day, so that I can see you every day and not bother you. ”

Yang Chengzu kissed her on the head, "What nonsense are you talking about, when did I dislike you?" You're my Lady Lotus, and always have been, how could I not like you? Don't listen to some man-made rumors in the inner house, and you will believe it. Your illness, I have already asked my mother, mainly in my heart, as soon as the mood is good, there is no big deal. I know, you're blaming me for seeing you see less, but isn't there something going on in the court, and I've really rarely come back lately. ”

Cen Lian hurriedly shook her head, "No, I really don't blame you, it's them, they must have framed me." That time in Tuen Mun, this time they came to frame me again. ”

"I know that you are the most sensible Mrs. Lian, so don't worry about it, let me tell you, from tomorrow, Xianggong will not go to Weili, and will accompany you at home, okay?"

"Not going to Weili?" Cen Lian was overjoyed at first, and then hurriedly shook her head, "Then what's the matter, Brother Chengzu is a big official, how can you not go to the yamen, if you let Abba know that I won't let you go to the court, you will scold me to death." Leave me alone, and if I get this disease, it won't be good. ”

She suddenly remembered that Cao Xiaowan had told her that her disease was an epidemic and would be transmitted to her husband and family, so she hurriedly pushed Yang Chengzu outward. But she was very sick and had no strength in her body, but she was hugged by Yang Chengzu, "I'm not afraid, if I want to be infected, I will be sick together, and I can take medicine together." I know you're afraid of suffering when you take medicine, so come, Xianggong feeds you. From tonight onwards, I will sleep with you and will not go anywhere. ”

Cen Lian altar, he really decided to stay with him, and the depressed mood for many days instantly turned into joy, "I knew that this was the case, I would rather get sick every day, so that I can be with Brother Chengzu every day." But...... But I can't give you a baby now, so I'd better call a female soldier and let them accompany you. ”

"No, I can do nothing, and when you're better, I'll make it up. If you want to fly quickly, you have to hurry up. Yang Chengzu said as he took the medicine bowl and came over to feed the medicine, and then hugged Cen Lian and fell asleep. Staying here for two days in a row made the hearts of those female soldiers feel much more comfortable, and the vicious curse was suppressed. But on the other women's side of the inner house, many people also began to worry about making themselves sick, or taking out their monthly money to ask a famous doctor to send good medicine, hoping that Cen Lian would recover quickly and hand over her husband.

Yang Tinghe got the news that Yang Chengzu said that he was sick that day, and then learned from another channel that one of his favorite concubines was sick, and he stayed at home to take care of the concubine. If this kind of reason is used on others, most of them are not believed, in this era, men are inferior to women, how can there be a reason for men to serve women, but when used on Yang Chengzu, a famous drunkard in the government and the opposition, the credibility is greatly improved.

Tan Fanghe said: "Teacher, maybe this time, it is really an opportunity, the student has heard that Yang Dudu likes to fish, and he is very accommodating to women." The women in the family can show their heads and come out to do business, and they are still causing trouble in Beijing, and he is behind him. I also saw it when Sheng'an went to Yang's house before, and the housekeepers and helpers he used at home were all women, which was his habit, maybe it was really his favorite concubine who delayed his business. This time, he didn't give advice to the Son of Heaven, maybe the emperor's side really had no idea and didn't dare to continue fighting. ”

In the past two days, although there has been no result in the discussion of etiquette, everyone is still on the book and expressing their opinions, but the treatment of Huo Tao and Fang Xianfu has come out. Both of them were put in charge of the Ministry of Rites in Nanjing, that is, degraded. The two masters were dealt with, which also represents the attitude of the first assistant, and whoever supports their opinions will definitely face liquidation.

The Son of Heaven did not protect the two, negotiated for a while, was pushed back, and then nodded and really released the two. As soon as this handling opinion was passed, some petty officials, who were originally making a lot of noise, died down one after another, and did not dare to be reckless. Judging from the current situation, the defeat of King Xing's faction has appeared, and it will not be long before this dispute over rituals should be successfully concluded.

From the perspective of talking about Fanghe, from any point of view, this time it was Yang Tinghe who won a big victory, and the emperor had no means to turn the tables. Even if Yang Chengzu's concubine's illness was fake, it was impossible for him to bring the factory guard out to arrest the minister. This is the meeting of the ministers requested by the Son of Heaven, and it cannot be said that because of the expression of dissent, there will be a lawsuit. Then his movements, in fact, do not matter. This wrestling is not a contest that the factory guards can intervene in at all, and it is too careful to calculate the strength of the factory guards.

Yang Tinghe shook his head, "The people who contacted us have been cautious recently, if they can, try to retreat from this right and wrong, and don't get involved too deeply." As for Sheng'an, he likes to mess around, you can't stop it, I just hope that Huang can persuade his husband to stop him from messing around. As for the rest, it is left to fate. ”

Tan Fanghe walked out of the study with some amusement, thinking that his mentor was old, and he was really a little timid, but as Yang Tinghe's loyal subordinate, he still seriously completed his mentor's entrustment. Not long after he passed the order to the Yang family's cronies, Yang Tinghe's prophecy became a reality, and a counterattack from the Son of Heaven began.
