Taming the villain little fox (wearing a book)

Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.

Sima Yan and Duanmu Chang'an stood respectfully in front of the imperial case.

After writing the last word, Emperor Yongqing put down the cinnabar pen, took a sip of hot tea from his teacup, and said, "Tell me why you must put Wei Yan to death."

It was his order to kill Qin Zai, but he didn't know about Wei Yan.

He had seen Wei Yan, eaten her barbecue, and felt that the little girl was not only beautiful, but also hardworking, capable and skilled.Qin Zai deserved to die because of Shen Sifei, not himself, Wei Yan should not be involved in this matter.

He is not afraid of killing, but he doesn't like killing.

Sima Yan glanced at Duanmu Changan.

Wei Yan saved Duanmu Chang'an, killing Wei Yan is no different from being ungrateful, so he should be the one to defend at this moment.

Duanmu Chang'an also understood this point, nodded to Sima Yan, and then said to Emperor Yongqing: "Reporting to the emperor, there are two reasons for this humble official to kill Wei Yan. First, once Shen Sifei died, she was the only person Qin Zai valued." Well, killing her can force Qin Zai to take the initiative to jump out, as long as he makes a mistake, we can strangle him logically; secondly, the emperor may have heard about the appearance of the land master of Li County..."

When it comes to gods and ghosts, Duanmu Changan cautiously slowed down his speech, raised his eyes, and glanced at Emperor Yongqing's face, and found that he only raised his eyebrows, which often means that he is interested in listening, so he continued: " The minister thought that the land master who manifested his spirit was Wei Yan."

"Oh?" Emperor Yongqing was a little surprised, leaned back, and stared at Duanmu Chang'an with sharp eyes, "Tell me in detail."

"When Weiyan rescued Weichen back then, Weichen felt a little strange..." He told the story of Weiyan's rescue in detail, and finally pointed out the main point, "A 12-year-old country girl, as long as she is not stupid, she has the courage No matter how big you are, you won't have that kind of courage, this is one of them."

"Secondly, it is the bizarre death of Mr. Lu, and the arrowhead whose hardness and sharpness are several times better than the current weapons. Although the case was finally attributed to Meiyuan, according to Weichen As far as we know, there have been no new magic soldiers in the Jianghu in the past few years. If Meiyuan did it, there must not be only one arrow. Therefore, this matter has to fall on Wei Yan. When the crime happened, she In the town, even if no one can prove that she was there when Prince Lu died, and there is no evidence that she did it, but Weichen still suspects her."

"Thirdly, under the auspices of Wei Xuezheng, Qin Zai, Wei Ge, and Xu Fei were all selected as scholars with high rankings. After the college examination, I heard that Wei Xuezheng was assassinated with a bow and arrow before the examination. , he was lucky enough to survive, and returned the bribe, and only then was a relatively fair court examination. Wei Yan's relatives are the biggest beneficiaries of this matter, and I believe that Wei Yan has the motivation and ability to do all that."

Sima Yan said: "Father, if Qin is here..."

"Well." Emperor Yongqing stood up, "If these things are true, I also thought it was impossible for a 12-year-old country girl to do it, so tell me, what happened to Wei Yan? thing?"

"This..." Duanmu Changan hesitated.

Emperor Yongqing shouted softly: "Say!"

Duanmu Chang'an said: "This minister thought that she was possessed by ghosts and gods."

If all reasonable answers can't explain the real problems, then we can only use the most unreasonable one to explain, and this answer is often correct.

Emperor Yongqing walked back and forth a few times, and found that he couldn't deny the answer given by Duanmu Chang'an, that Wei Yan was really dangerous.But when he thought about it further, he felt that controlling Wei Yan would be the best thing for Da Shunchao.

He stopped, and said again: "If we can get the iron-making formula, our Dashun's military equipment will be better than Dajin's. Do you have any good ideas for this?"

Duanmu Chang'an and Sima Yan didn't expect him to focus on this, they looked at each other, Sima Yan said, "Father, we have tested Wei Yan a few times, she hides well, this matter is not easy."

Emperor Yongqing frowned. He glanced at Duanmu Chang'an, swallowed back the sarcasm that rolled to his lips, and said: "Things will not remain the same forever. When you tried it, Qin Zai didn't know his life experience. He has a bright future, and now that the Wei family and Qin Zai are at the end of their ropes, it shouldn't be as difficult to catch her as before."

The reasoning is the same, but Duanmu Chang'an felt that Emperor Yongqing's actions were too risky, and remonstrated: "Your Majesty, this woman is too mysterious, and her strength should not be underestimated. Leaving her behind will definitely become a hidden danger."

Sima Yan also persuaded: "Wei Yan's ability is immeasurable, my son, please think twice."

He knew very well that although Emperor Yongqing was ruthless, he was not the one to kill donkeys.After taking Wei Yan's iron-making recipe, will Qin Zai still die?

If he didn't die, how would Sima Yan deal with himself?

Emperor Yongqing waved his hand and looked straight at Sima Yan, "Nothing is certain, and nothing is impossible. I am not a person who changes orders day and night. Everything depends on man's will. As long as you think about it, there will always be a way to achieve both."

This was his guarantee to Sima Yan in disguise—it meant that Qin Zai would definitely die.

Although Sima Yan was relieved, he shivered because of it.

Duanmu Chang'an winked at Sima Yan, signaling him not to say any more.

Sima Yan shrank his shoulders and bowed his head to show that he was taught.

Emperor Yongqing nodded in satisfaction, and said: "Wei Yan helped Qin Zai and did not dislike her cousin who resigned from the marriage. This shows that she is a person of temperament. For the sake of family affection, I have reason to believe that she will not go all the way to the dark." Improving iron smelting is a century-old plan to improve the military power of Dashun and ensure the security of the country. It is not too much for me to grant Weige a marquis, or it is not too much for her to be a queen. As long as I have enough sincerity, Xiao Using reason to move emotion, Wei Yan must be able to understand my difficulties."

Understand with reason and move with emotion!

Duanmu Chang'an lowered his head, hiding the smirk from the corner of his mouth.

On the way here, he had thought a lot.He thought that other people could not be allowed to snore on the side of the couch, and even if the emperor was dissatisfied with the actions of the two of them, Wei Yan would inevitably end up in a dead end; The two of them would linger on for a while longer; but he never thought that Emperor Yongqing would miss his prospective daughter-in-law.

Simply shameless!

That's right, he was ungrateful, but all this was forced by the situation, and the interests of the Duanmu clan were in his hands, so he had to make a choice.But the emperor is different, the power of the world is concentrated in one hand, he obviously has more choices, why should he do this, isn't he afraid of being ridiculed by the world?

Emperor Yongqing walked up to Duanmu Chang'an, and said with a smile that was not a smile: "The world belongs to me, and so do the people. I can uplift whoever I want, and I can uplift as much as I want. Chang'an, what do you think about this?" Opinion?"

Duanmu Chang'an suddenly felt a chill down his spine, "The emperor is wise, and my ministers are terrified."

Emperor Yongqing smiled coldly, knowing that it was good to be afraid.

He is sitting in the world, what beauty has he never seen?It's not because of her looks, but because of the mysterious power she possesses.He has reasons to believe that as long as he holds her tightly in his palm and shares weal and woe with the interests of the royal family, the Dashun Dynasty will surely rule the country for generations to come.

"On the first day of October to worship the ancestors, Qin Zaihui will recognize the ancestors and return to the clan. The Ministry of Rites is already preparing for this matter. From now on, you should be more peaceful."

"Yes."

"Go on." Emperor Yongqing picked up the brush, dipped it in cinnabar, and continued to review the memorial.

……

The Ministry of Rites' handling of the royal family's errands for worshiping ancestors is not confidential. Qin Zai will get the news as soon as the officials move.

He came out of the yamen and went directly to the Temple of the City God.

Mr. Wei wanted to take his children and grandchildren home, but was persuaded by Qin Zai - he had limited manpower, he could take care of the capital, but he couldn't take care of the Li family fort.

Seeing their children and grandchildren in danger and helpless, the old man felt resentful and didn't want to see Qin Zai, so Qin Zai could only move out of Wei's house and meet Wei Yan here.

It was still early at this time, and the guests had not yet come to the door.

Wei Yan was wearing an autumn-colored quilted robe, and was sitting at the small dining table by the door, concentrating on settling accounts. The warm light of the setting sun shone on her face, making her look extraordinarily warm and kind.

"Do you want to help?" Qin Zai took a small bench and sat down opposite her.

Wei Yan raised her head, smiled brightly, and said, "It will be ready soon, have you eaten yet?"

Qin Zai was dazzled by her smile, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to gently pinch her firm and tender apple muscles, "Not yet, how about you?"

Wei Yan nodded, she had already eaten, otherwise she would not have the strength to work later.

She called Xiao Ling and ordered him to order a bowl of pimple soup.

After half a cup of tea, Wei Yan wrote down the last few accounts, put away the account book, took two wings and a chicken leg, and roasted them herself.

Qin Zai also followed, and the two sat beside the glowing red oven, meeting each other and talking in a low voice.

"Will it be dangerous to enter the palace at this time?" Wei Yan was talking about ancestor worship.

Qin Zai hooked the charcoal for her, and said affirmatively: "No, since he is willing to compromise, it shows that he has scruples about Meiyuan."

The imperial court was in the Ming Dynasty, and the Meiyuan was in the dark. Emperor Yongqing didn't dare to take risks.

Wei Yan also understood this, she changed the chicken wings, and said: "You mean, as long as you control the power of Meiyuan well, then he won't dare to do it easily, does he have such patience? "

"He is very patient with me and Meiyuan, but he is very curious about women's secrets. Next, it's up to you." Qin Zai laughed, "Duanmu Chang'an and Sima Yan are like this. Afraid of you, I will definitely explain the pros and cons to him, he attaches great importance to weapons, temptations and temptations will surely follow, we just wait."

"If he promises you the next position, what will you do?" His eyes fell on Wei Yan's face, and Wei Yan's eyes were locked tightly.

Wei Yan sneered, "Why, will you promise the back seat to others?"

This is too!

With him around, how could he get a bad old man?He should have confidence in himself and in Wei Yan.

Qin Zai smiled in relief, took the pimple soup brought by Xiao Ling, scooped up a spoonful of it and blew it, then felt it with his thin lips, put it near Wei Yan's mouth, and said: "Come with me to eat, Open your mouth."

"Okay." Wei Yan followed suit.

The two of them were on the side of the road, and you ate it spoon by spoon.
