When Empress Dugu heard that Mao asked for a meeting, she was slightly stunned at first, her son-in-law had never asked to see her alone, and she didn't go to court, but during the festival, she followed other princes and princesses to ask for peace, and she almost forgot about his cunzài, and somehow he came to see him alone today.

Empress Dugu thought to herself: "This Mao Wen'an used to look a little bit like this, but in recent years, when she sees herself, she is like a mouse seeing a cat, lest she ask him something, but today she is so bold and dares to come to ask for a meeting, it is estimated that Yong'an's child asked him to come, it should be Yong'an has something, but Yong'an has something, why didn't she come by herself, but let her waste husband come, this is really strange." ”

"Xuan." Empress Dugu didn't raise her head, but only said one word.

The little eunuch hurriedly went out and asked Mao Wen'an to go in and face the saint.

Mao Wen'an asked the little eunuch in a low voice, "Father-in-law, how is the emperor feeling today?" ”

The little eunuch shook his head and said, "I can't see it, the little slave didn't serve in the palace, but he ...... when he went in just now" Speaking of this, he stopped talking, and at this time it was up to him to see if the master of the horse was on the road.

Mao asked An very good, he immediately took out a few golden melon seeds from his arms, stuffed them into the hands of the little eunuch, and said, "When you went in just now, can you see the emperor's mood?" ”

The little eunuch thought to himself: "Have you returned to the palace to ask such a fool, even if I can see that the emperor is in a good mood, I dare to say, I am looking for death!" He put away the golden melon seeds and whispered: "The emperor is dealing with government affairs, don't you make a long story short!" ”

Mao Wen'an immediately understood, this is a bad mood! He was a little hesitant, whether to go in or not, he was afraid that the empress was more powerful than the eldest princess, and it was best not to see it!

The little eunuch saw that he was not moving, and reminded: "Master Horse, go in, don't let the emperor wait." It's disrespectful to make the emperor wait for a long time! ”

Mao Wen'an hurriedly straightened his clothes, hardened his head, and entered the Qinzheng Palace.

After kowtowing, Mao Wen'an was about to take out the chapter, but he heard the Dugu Empress above ask: "Who are you going to ask for, don't ask someone you don't understand, if something happens to that person in the future, you two can't afford to be implicated!" ”

Mao Wen'an was taken aback, how did he know that I was here to ask for an official. How do you know that I don't know Yang Ze well? My mother-in-law is too powerful!

In this era, Queen Dugu can definitely be regarded as a big boss, the most powerful character, there is no one. If he comes to ask for something else, his daughter will come, although he doesn't love this daughter, he can be a mother. As long as my daughter's request is not too excessive, she will still try her best to meet it.

The daughter didn't come, but the son-in-law came, so it could only be a matter of the court. And what kind of business can Mao Wen'an have, that is, to seek officials for others, and he must not be an acquaintance, if he is an acquaintance. It's okay for my daughter to come, and I'll talk about it by the way, I just don't ask for a higher official position. I can also agree, now that my son-in-law is wearing court clothes, can't he only ask for an official for someone he doesn't know, and it is very likely that he will stuff people into the territory of other princesses and princes, and seven or eight times out of ten will be stuffed into the territory of the eldest princess.

Mao Wen'an was very scared, and he was in a hurry, so he didn't dare to take out the concerto, but he couldn't think of anything to say, so he had to kneel on the ground, not daring to raise his head or speak.

Empress Dugu finally glanced at her son-in-law, and said impatiently: "Write a chapter, take it out and show it to me, don't stop talking, I can't see you like you!" ”

Mao Wen'an wanted to cry without tears, what he said, he only took the chapter a little late, and he was said to be unproductive, which is too polite! But no matter how polite the empress's mother-in-law was to him, he didn't dare to talk back, and he didn't even dare to have a dissatisfied expression. He took out the chapter and handed it to the little eunuch, who presented it to the Dugu Empress.

Mao Wen'an didn't even dare to come out, he found that the temper of the empress and mother-in-law didn't seem to be very good today, and it was estimated that the matter of protecting Yang Ze could not be done, who let himself not pick a good time, even if the empress and mother-in-law would give Yang Ze an official, it would not be an official of Dali Temple, so that Yang Ze would not owe him and Princess Yong'an a favor, and he would be scolded for nothing.

After a while, I heard Empress Dugu say: "The person you want to protect is Yang Ze, do you know him?" ”

"Back to the emperor, the minister and Yang Ze have a friend, I met last night, he guessed the lantern riddle very accurately, he is very knowledgeable, and even knows the banana!" As soon as Mao Wen'an was scared, he told the truth, and his mind was in a mess, and he even said riddles and bananas.

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt that something was wrong, he dared to promote Yang Ze as an official after seeing one, or Shaoqing of Dali Temple, isn't this nonsense, selling the country's official position as a favor, this is worth it, the empress's mother-in-law won't let people drag him out and beat him up, right?

Thinking that he would be beaten, Mao Wen'an almost fainted, but he felt that it was too unworthy to come this time, it seems that he can't do it by himself to promote others as officials, he doesn't have the ability!

Who knows, I listened to Empress Dugu say: "It seems that you still have some vision, and from the guessing riddles, you can see that Yang Ze is very capable of solving cases, this is not simple, you are still a little useful!" ”

Mao Wen'an didn't react for a while, he had been afraid to listen to the empress's mother-in-law's blame, as soon as he heard the empress's mother-in-law speak, he didn't think about it, he directly kowtowed, and said: "The minister is guilty, and the minister doesn't dare to ...... Uh, the minister ......" The words came out, and he came back to his senses, and for a long time, the empress's mother-in-law was praising him, and she didn't scold him for being a waste!

But Empress Dugu was disappointed again, and thought that this son-in-law had a little talent, but it turned out to be such a waste, and she didn't even hear the words clearly and said that she was guilty, why did she choose such a waste as her son-in-law in the first place, and forgot what she liked him in the first place!

Anyway, it is still his son-in-law, Empress Dugu said: "This Yang Ze has some skills in judging the case, this year there was a case of a woman murdering her husband, the woman was wronged, no one can try it, but Yang Ze invented a method to make the case repeated, the result is easy to clear the case, and the woman is innocent, the magistrate reported the case and sent it to the Criminal Department, he also made military merits, this time he sent a little Khan of Tujue into Beijing, I thought about using him very much, and wanted to send him to the Criminal Department......"

Speaking of which, Empress Dugu suddenly became impatient, why did she and this waste son-in-law say this, who she wanted to reuse, she still needed to explain!

She said: "Since you want to please your eldest sister, then I won't stop you, and I won't send Yang Ze to the Criminal Department, so go to Dali Temple to be Shaoqing!" However, you should not expect to please your eldest sister in this way, she is not a person who rubs sand in her eyes! ”

Speaking of the eldest princess, Empress Dugu's mood is better, the eldest daughter is the most satisfying child, the most favored by her among all the children, and the most like her, but it's a pity that the eldest princess's temperament is a little anxious, which is a fly in the ointment, otherwise she really wants to make her the crown prince!

With a wave of her hand, Empress Dugu was no longer impatient to talk to this waste son-in-law, and said that she would let Mao Qian'an leave, she lowered her head, and then took care of official business.

But Mao Wen'an kept kneeling, didn't dare to look up, didn't see the empress's gesture, waited for a while, and suddenly heard the empress's mother-in-law say: "Why are you still here, is there anything else?" ”

Mao Wen'an woke up like a dream, and hurriedly said: "The minister is fine, the minister retires!" After kowtowing, he got up and withdrew from the temple.

When he arrived at the gate of the hall, Mao Wen'an wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and found that he was soaked with sweat all over his body, and his underwear was attached to his body, which was very uncomfortable. He thought to himself: "If there is such a thing in the future, I will not come again if I am killed!" ”

He went back to the princess's mansion and told Princess Yong'an what happened, Princess Yong'an was taken aback, and after a long time, Yang Ze was not the emperor's confidant, nor the eldest princess's henchman, but just a small foreign official who made some contributions, but where did that jade gourd come from? She hurriedly went to the eldest princess, she also sold the eldest princess a favor, she had to remind the eldest sister to succeed, don't forget her little credit.

The eldest princess is a widow, her husband died violently, folk rumors are that she killed her, she is suspected of murdering her husband, but she can't show evidence that she didn't murder the horse, so murdering her husband is a taboo for the whole royal family, Yang Ze just cracked such a case, so if the eldest princess uses it, she can also defend herself, at least in the future, political enemies will use this to attack her, she also has something to say, now Princess Yongan has promoted Yang Ze to Dali Temple, isn't this a little favor to the eldest princess.

Yang Ze thought about it in the house for a long morning, thought of several ways, how to behave himself when he saw the empress, after lunch at noon, he found Yan Chenghou again, and asked him to inquire about the housing prices in Chang'an City, he thought about how good it would be if he could open a pharmaceutical factory in Chang'an, how good it would be to run the pharmaceutical factory prosperously, then Yang Baiqiu and his wife are so proud, is it really good to live well, let the whole family live well, that is really good.

On this day, there was nothing, Wu Youren didn't come, Li Bozhi didn't come, he waited in the Soldiers and Horses Division for a day, and he didn't do anything serious, until the sky was almost dark, and suddenly someone came, and as soon as he came, there was a holy decree!

Yang Ze didn't know why, why did the holy decree suddenly come, the emperor's personal decree to himself? This rhythm is not right, according to the rhythm of the banquet to offer prisoners, it is enough for the Ministry of Rites to contact herself, why did the empress personally make an order to herself, she is so heavy!

He hurriedly came out to receive the decree, and listened to the little eunuch who announced the decree, and first praised himself for his ability and some small skills in the holy decree, and then he actually sealed himself as an official of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, isn't this a promotion!

After Yang Ze received the holy decree, he asked the little eunuch: "This little father-in-law, why did the emperor suddenly let me be the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, what is going on?" ”

The little eunuch was the one who received Mao Wen'an's golden melon seeds, and he smiled and said: "It's Princess Yong'an's concubine who protects you, congratulations to General Yang, no, no, it's wrong, congratulations to Yang Shaoqing, you are promoted!" "Saying that, you stretched out your hand, you have been promoted, I don't mean it, there are no golden melon seeds, and it will be done to give a few silver beans! (To be continued......)
