Chapter 268 Old events in the palace
Not only the Yuan family.
Almost at the same time.
Mr. Yang also received the news.
At the same time, when Emperor Mingcheng summoned Qin Chi in Wenyuan Pavilion, he also knew, "Did you mean Qin Qi''an received the imperial edict not long after seeing the emperor?"
“That’s true.”
The visitor is Ke Bingzhi, another bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. "Teacher, I thought I could go further this year, but I didn''t expect that I would be disappointed after all."
Ke Bingzhi is a disciple of Mr. Yang.
With the secret support of Mr. Yang in recent years, the promotion speed is not slow, but it has been nearly ten years since he has been in his current position. I thought he was already good.
Why did the surname Qin achieve his achievements in just one day? !
Yang Ge Lao said in a strong voice: "Be honest and keep your mind steady. We are all mortals, so don''t fight against the evil spirits."
"Demon, demon?"
"For thousands of years, there will always be one or two people who are unmatched by normal people." As a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, Yang Ge Lao naturally has extensive common sense and his knowledge is not comparable to ordinary people.
People like Qin Chi can only be described as monsters.
It doesn’t seem like it should be in the world.
Part of him existed before them again. People who were born in the same period as him could only admit that they were unlucky. Because as long as he exists, others will be suppressed to the point of being dull.
"If you bear it, he won''t stay in the Hanlin Academy for a long time." Although Mr. Yang could not see through Qin Chi, he had some understanding of Emperor Ming Cheng. "This time, His Majesty promoted Qin Chi to the extreme, and in addition to compensation, he must have other intentions."
This disaster was finally escaped by Old Gui Yuan.
Yang Ge Lao was not sure how he avoided it, and he still needed someone to check it out again.
…
The news of Qin Chi''s promotion spread.
All kinds of envy and doubts, or sour voices are constantly heard, but these people only dare to talk in private, and when they stand in front of others, they have another upright attitude.
This is Your Majesty’s will.
Your Majesty must be the one who valued him and so on.
All forces are also investigating.
Some people just know some things on the surface, but some forces can find out the truth behind the scenes.
It’s like Old Man Hong found out that night.
He has someone in the palace.
In the newly decorated study, several lamps were lit to make the room brighter as daylight.
"After Yuan''s corruption, a subordinate was charged with the charge. The man''s family had been confiscated and would be exiled in a few days. There was also news that Yuan Shangshu sent a granddaughter to the palace yesterday. The woman''s appearance and temperament were as similar to the dead concubine Shu."
Old Man Hong reported the news he had just obtained to Qin Chi.
Qin Chi tightened his hand holding the pen, "Concubine Shu?"
"This is an old story in the palace many years ago." Old Man Hong continued, "Concubine Shu is the eldest daughter of Mr. Yang. She cannot be called a peerless beauty. Her temperament and temperament just happened to catch the emperor''s eyes. But one day she suddenly died of illness, but in fact she died of poisoning with the emperor. It is said that she indirectly saved the emperor''s life."
A person is worthy of favor.
Suddenly he died, and this became the cinnabar mole in the emperor''s heart.
This is the first time Qin Chi has heard of this.
There is no reason why the Yang family has gained the trust of the emperor. What is to be sacrificed in the middle is a life.
Let’s talk about this old story from the palace many years ago.
Old Man Hong continued, "The emperor was furious at that time and washed the palace bloodily. In the end, the murderer found out that it was just a small beauty. The beauty was killed by the emperor on the spot, and the beauty''s family."
Then, Old Man Hong sneered, "That beauty is crying for injustice until she dies."
"Is this a scapegoat?"
"Yes, the Yang family is used as a scapegoat."
Qin Chi was very surprised by this result, "Uncle Hong meant that Concubine Shu''s death was directed and acted by the Yang family?"
"good."
Old Man Hong simply revealed the old story.
He put a spy in the palace that year and stole the job with Concubine Yang. He sent the truth out of the palace before his death. Otherwise, the truth would have been buried.
Old Man Hong said again: "Yang Zhengkai''s career was not going well at that time, and he had been working in the Hanlin Academy. He used the death of a daughter to exchange for the prosperity of the Yang family for a hundred years, which was a very worthy deal."
"Is Concubine Shu also an insider?"
"Without her cooperation, it would not be possible. I heard that she had a heart to be with her before entering the palace, and probably she would have been desperate." Old Man Hong talked in a casual manner. Now it seems that the Yang family’s planning is very successful.
No one has ever doubted the Yang family, including Emperor Ming Cheng.
Who would have expected that Mr. Yang would be so cruel?
When his daughter is favored, send her to death? Just to show kindness to the emperor, he will make the emperor''s mind clear.
This incident refreshed Qin Chi''s understanding of Mr. Yang.
A person who is ruthless will accomplish great things.
That night, before going to bed.
Qin Chi told Song Jin about this, which made Song Jin feel solemn.
"I didn''t expect that I could not tell the difference between the age of that man. I just let the Yuan family go because of a woman like Concubine Shu." Song Jin faced Qin Chi sideways, speaking in a low voice, not afraid of hearing the walls, "Where is this the people in the world?"
This made Song Jin think of himself.
Can her family’s case be exposed? Can Emperor Mingcheng make the decision?
Obviously she dared not gamble.
As a king of a country, he is indifferent to the law. How can he let the court officials below abide by it? The Yang family is highly valued by the emperor now. Even if someone comes to the emperor and says that Concubine Shu uses her fortune to plot against him, no one will believe it.
The two chatted until late at night.
Before going to bed, Song Jin reminded Qin Chi, "Be careful when going to the Hanlin Academy again. There is no shortage of villains everywhere in this world."
“I will pay attention.”
Qin Chi gently hugged Song Jin, "It''s getting late, please go to bed."
The couple hugged each other and slept.
The next morning.
The sky outside was not yet bright.
Qin Chi got up and wore casual clothes.
When serving breakfast, Song Jin glanced at him, "Why don''t you go to Hanlin Academy to work today?"
"It''s not urgent to be a job. The new official uniform has not been sent yet. I will go to the Hanlin Academy later and invite my colleagues to come here for lunch."
Qin Chi took the "tradition" of Hanlin Academy lunch as an interesting story to Song Jin.
Song Jin felt it was fresh after hearing this.
Those who have just become officials must treat you. It is not solemn or shabby. It is just right to invite everyone to have a meal at noon.
Qin Chi ran into Dong Xingde again when he went out.
Dong Xingde''s face looked slightly stiff.
"Mr. Dong, what a coincidence."
Qin Chi took the initiative to say hello.
Yesterday, the two met at the same level, and Dong Xing Deshang could present a senior''s poem. Today, Qin Chi is his Shangguan. No matter how unhappy he is, he still wants to salute Qin Chi, "Secretary Dong Xingde has met Lord Qin."
"There is no need to be polite outside. Come to my house for lunch." Qin Chi was willing to invite him.
Dong Xingde responded sourly.
