124. Chapter 124 Big things are bad
Nangong Ao had the same idea as Shen Ruhui. He hoped that Ye Wenge would have a boy in his belly, a brave and resourceful man who could inherit the great cause of the Northern Tang Dynasty.
Seeing that Nangong Ao lowered his eyebrows and looked thoughtful, Ye Wange asked again, "The Emperor doesn't have anyone he likes?" There were so many women in the palace. Ye Wange didn't believe that Nangong Ao couldn't control one or two of the palace maids. things.
Ye Wange's topic revolved around the embroidered girl. After hearing this, Nangong Ao thought about it in his mind. He felt that there was a slave in his bedroom that would suit his wishes. However, the slave's birth was not good. His father was a corrupt official and could not be promoted. Therefore, although he had a good impression of that slave, he had no intention of naming that slave as a slave.
Nangong Ao looked at Ye Wange and said seriously, "I am a person with a pure heart and few desires. I don't like women."
When Ye Wange heard this, she burst out laughing. He was a stoic person, so he was so impatient every time he was with her that he threw her on the bed without even taking off her clothes.
Hearing Ye Wange's laughter, Nangong Ao frowned and said, "Queen, why are you laughing?"
Ye Wange smiled slightly and said, "The emperor always promised himself to be pure and celibate, so who and the concubines in the harem sing every night, rolling in the waves of love?"
Ye Wange sang every word, and even she herself was very happy to listen to it. Unfortunately, the person involved shook her head and said in disapproval, "I had no choice but to deal with these concubines in the harem. I'm exhausted. Look, Now the Empress Dowager and Concubine Hui are busy choosing an embroiderer for me, and I can't even refuse!"
Nangong Ao said helplessly, as if he was forced to do so. Ye Wange's mouth twitched slightly when he heard this, thinking in his heart that it was obviously your own wish. I hope that there will be many beauties in the harem, otherwise you will be the emperor of a country who can cover the sky with one hand. Who dares to disobey if I say no?
Ye Wange's guess was right. Nangong Ao was willing to accept the selection of embroidered girls by Zhou Yu and Huang Gai. Although he did not propose it on his own initiative, he was willing to accept it.
Nangong Ao felt that the Queen Mother was right, heirs were the lifeblood of the royal family, and he could not let the royal family decline in his generation.
"Isn't it rare for Concubine Hui to be so generous and enthusiastic about choosing embroidery for the emperor?" Ye Wange praised, but the expression on his face was very disdainful.
Shen Ruhui, the jealous concubine, was busy choosing a woman for the emperor. Who knows what evil intentions she had in mind.
When Ye Wange mentioned Shen Ruhui, Nangong Ao said with a smile on his face, "Although Concubine Hui is a bit petty, she still understands the truth.
Concubine Hui said that she could not do anything for the royal family, so she had to ask other sisters to do it for the royal family."
Seeing the raised corners of Nangong Ao's mouth when he mentioned Shen Ruhui, Ye Wange could tell that Nangong Ao had ignored Shen Ruhui some time ago, and that he was just out of anger and loving and doting on Shen Ruhui. The meaning still hasn't changed.
Thinking about it, Nangong Ao and Shen Ruhui grew up together. The relationship they have had for so many years cannot be destroyed by one or two things. That kind of love has taken root and sprouted in Nangong Ao's heart. It is not necessary to destroy it. Just cut it off in the middle, but dig out the roots and destroy the foundation.
Ye Wange was just thinking about how to make Nangong Ao give up on Shen Ruhui when she heard Zhang Fugui's hoarse voice reaching her ears, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager sent someone to tell the Emperor that there is something important. business. "
Ye Wange glanced at Zhang Fugui, looked at the slave in front of her, and remembered what Shen Ruhui said in her previous life. She pursed her lips and gritted her teeth tightly. In her previous life, Zhang Fugui actually dared to brutally harm her young brother Ye Chengxuan.
Nangong Ao looked at Ye Wange with gentle eyebrows and said, "Queen, I'm going to the Queen Mother's place."
Ye Wange came back to her senses and responded softly, "Okay."
Nangong Ao and Zhang Fugui went out together. Ye Wange watched Nangong Ao get into the dragon chariot through the window, and Zhang Fugui followed Nangong Ao like a pug.
It is not uncommon for such a person to be a popular person in front of Nangong Ao, who is both flattering and scheming.
Zhang Fugui shouted and drove to Anfu Palace, and Nangong Ao's dragon chariot immediately went in the direction of Anfu Palace.
Looking at the group of people walking out of Funing Palace, Ye Wange thought that it would be impossible to get rid of Shen Liang and his daughter for a while, and they could not find the killer shadow, so it would be a good thing to get rid of the bad guy Zhang Fugui first.
With this idea, Ye Wange began to think about how to get rid of Zhang Fugui. If he wanted to get rid of the celebrity around the emperor, he had to seize Zhang Fugui's handle.
Ye Wange was thinking about it. When Xiao Zhi led Cao Tianyue in, Ye Wange, who was sitting there in deep thought, rested his chin on his hand and fell asleep.
Xiao Zhizi winked at the slave Ning'er who was standing next to Ye Wange. Ning'er looked at Ye Wange with her eyes closed, not daring to wake Ye Wange up, and stretched out her hand to signal Xiao Zhi to let Cao Tianyue wait outside for a while.
Cao Tianyue stood at the door of the outer room, watching Xiao Zhi flirting with the maid next to Ye Wange. He looked anxiously at Ye Wange, who was resting his forehead on his hand, and said, "Wei Chen has seen the Queen!"
Ye Wange, whose eyes were half-closed, was awakened when she heard someone greeting her. She stretched out her hand to rub her eyes and raised her eyes to look at the source of the sound.
Before she could see clearly, Ning'er behind her said, "Queen, did I wake you up?"
Ye Wange was slightly startled after hearing this, "Am I asleep?"
"Yeah." Ning'er nodded.
Ye Wange didn't know that she could fall asleep even though she was so sleepy. She didn't have time to figure out whether she was asleep or not, before Cao Tianyue took a few big steps in front of her.
Cao Tianyue stood in front of Ye Wange, "Something bad is going to happen!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Wange looked at him in shock, "What happened?"
"Shen Liang mixed Prime Minister Ye's book in front of the emperor." Cao Tianyue said anxiously.
After hearing this, Ye Wange's heart that was beating wildly just now finally calmed down. She had long known about Shen Liang's adultery with her father, and she had dealt with it.
Didn't Shen Liang just trick his father into accepting a dragon tail inkstone from Liang Zhan, the prefect of Echeng? That inkstone is now in the hands of the emperor.
Cao Tianyue stood there with an anxious look on his face. Seeing Ye Wange's calm expression, he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and said, "We have to think of a countermeasure quickly!"
"You sit down first." Looking at Cao Tianyue who was standing there like a pile, Ye Wange motioned for him to sit down.
Ye Wange looked as usual and looked at Cao Tianyue calmly, "What did Shen Liang do with my father? Accepting a bribe from Liang Zhan? A piece of dragon tail inkstone?"
Cao Tianyue nodded repeatedly after hearing this. Ye Wange looked at it and said with a smile, "Let Shen Liang mix it. The dragon tail inkstone is now in the hands of the emperor."
Cao Tianyue nodded after hearing this, looked at Ye Wange and said, "It is true that it is in the hands of the emperor, but this cannot escape the fact that Prime Minister Ye accepted bribes!"
"Huh?" Ye Wange looked at Cao Tianyue in confusion.
Cao Tianyue said anxiously, "Did you ask Prime Minister Ye to give that dragon tail inkstone to Wang Haodong, the Minister of Rites?"
Ye Wange nodded, and Cao Tianyue looked even more uneasy after hearing this, and said, "Wang Haodong has been arrested!"
Ye Wange was startled after hearing this, and her heart skipped a beat. Wang Haodong had been arrested, and she knew something was wrong.
"Why were you arrested?" Ye Wange came back to his senses and asked, guessing that he was not arrested because of the dragon tail inkstone!
Cao Tianyue looked at Ye Wange's calm expression just now and thought she knew about Wang Haodong's arrest. Now he looked at Ye Wange's surprised expression and looked at her as if she didn't know.
"I heard that Wang Haodong was greedy for ten thousand taels of gold." Cao Tianyue said.
Wang Haodong was embezzling. Ye Wange thought about whether there was any connection between Wang Haodong and Wang Haodong when he was arrested just after the Dragon Tail Inkstone was handed over to the emperor.
"Who did you listen to?" Ye Wange asked.
"I saw it with my own eyes. I saw Wang Haodong being tied up and taken into the prison." Cao Tianyue said. When he saw Wang Haodong being taken into the prison, he only asked more about the officer of the prisoner and asked about Wang Haodong's crime.
What was the crime? The official told him mysteriously that Wang Haodong had committed a serious crime this time, embezzling money from the Ministry of Rites, and also involved Prime Minister Ye.
When the official mentioned Prime Minister Ye, Cao Tianyue's nerves tightened and he immediately became alert. He asked the official carefully about what happened, only to find out that Ye Changyu had collected an inkstone from Liang Zhan, the prefect of Yi'e City.
It was handed over to the emperor, but the emperor already knew that the inkstone was a bribe accepted by Ye Changyu.
Cao Tianyue was more than surprised when he heard this. He couldn't believe it, so he came to inform Ye Wange as if his butt was on fire.
"Your Majesty must know the origin of that inkstone." Cao Tianyue said softly, fearing to offend Ye Wange.
Although Ye Wange was panicked at this time, she had not lost her judgment yet. She thought over and over in her mind how to solve this matter.
"What do you think we should do?" Ye Wange asked Cao Tianyue.
After hearing this, Cao Tianyue shook his head, "The matter has been spread out, what can be done to remedy it now?" The emperor already knew about the matter, and there were complete witnesses and material evidence, so how could he be cleared of this crime.
"Wang Haodong is recruiting?" Ye Wange asked.
Cao Tianyue shook his head and said, "When I came here, I was being taken to the prison. I guess I haven't had time to interrogate him yet."
When she heard that Wang Haodong had just been taken to prison, Ye Wange, who had looked anxious just now, beamed with joy. She said calmly, "As long as Wang Haodong doesn't admit it, what will happen even if this thing is true?"
Ye Wange said calmly, while Cao Tianyue listened with fear. Wang Haodong had already been arrested, how could he not do anything? No matter how tough Wang Haodong was, he couldn't resist those destructive tortures!
"Wang Haodong will be imprisoned and he will definitely confess." Cao Tianyue said pessimistically.
Ye Wange glanced at Cao Tianyue and said calmly, "I have a way to prevent Wang Haodong from recruiting."
