This stupid gentleman is not good to be

Chapter 26 tit for tat

A tall tower in the capital.

This pagoda is simple and majestic, like a pillar of the sky, straight into the sky.

There are many guards around the tower, and many people in Taoist robes come and go. This place is the branch of Sanqing Temple in the capital.

This high tower was specially built by the first emperor for the national teacher Qi Gang. When the Dajing Dynasty fell into a national crisis, Qi Gang offered advice and led the Sanqing Temple to fully assist the late emperor. This stabilized the status of the Dajing Dynasty, and Qi Gang was also defeated. He was granted the title of national teacher, a first-rank official, and a very high status.

As for the big event that happened last night, this side naturally got the news.

Qi Gang is sitting in the tower at the moment playing chess with an old man with the same white beard. This old man is a cabinet scholar of the Dajing Dynasty. Now the entire cabinet is under his control. With the support of Gang, he now has a certain right to speak in the court.

A rush of footsteps interrupted the thoughts of the two, and the grand scholar looked at the door with some dissatisfaction.

"Boom!" There was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Qi Gang twisted a chess piece and said lightly.

After the door was opened, a disciple of Sanqing Temple who was short of breath came in. When he saw Qi Gang, he knelt down immediately: "I want to report to the national teacher, the Jingwei army who escorted the grain and grass last night was attacked by thousands of Mianbei elites and suffered heavy losses! At the same time, the Imperial Forest Army Commander Li Pei was found to be having an affair with Mianbei, and now he has been escorted back to the Heavenly Prison by the Chief Prosecutor!"

"Click!" With a sound, the chess piece in Qi Gang's hand fell on the chessboard. For such a calm person like him, he couldn't help being shocked when he heard these two explosive news.

"I see, you go down first." Qi Gang pretended to be calm and said to the disciple, the disciple bowed and then left.

The scholar on the opposite side of Qi Gang was dumbfounded when he heard the news, but soon he realized it, and quickly complimented him: "The national teacher is really a god! I am ashamed that I didn't know such a clever plan!"

After Qi Gang heard the words, he sighed helplessly and said, "It's not me."

"Ah? National Teacher, what do you mean?" The grand scholar was also confused.

"I said I didn't make the move this time." Qi Gang continued, frowning.

"This..." The academician was stunned for a moment, thinking that such a clever plan came from the hands of the national teacher. After all, anyone with a discerning eye could see that this time was aimed at the black hand of the Bajing King. Li Pei is at this juncture. If something happens, it's hard to keep it safe, and with King Bajing's temper, he must have directly abandoned this pawn.

"Who do you think will make the move?" Qi Gang asked suddenly, and at the same time picked up a chess piece and dropped it on the board.

The academician scratched his head and said hesitantly: "The only one who dares to attack directly in the court is General Yi Chuan, but it is not like the style of General Yi to use foreign enemies to kill the Jingwei army like this. , the words of the emperor... are even more impossible!"

Qi Gang smiled slightly at this, and said with something in his words: "You can't just look at the surface when you look at people and things."

After hearing this, the academician also fell into deep thought, and thought to himself: "Is the national teacher implying the general?"

"No matter what, the King of Bajing must have lost his temper this time." Qi Gang laughed.

"Isn't the national teacher worried that the Eighth Prince suspects that you did it?" the grand scholar said with some concern.

Qi Gang twisted another chess piece in his hand, put it on the chessboard, and then his eyes were slightly cold: "Worried? Why should I worry, he is still worried about his own situation!"

After hearing the words, the grand scholar stopped talking, after all, he was very clear about the friction between King Bajing and the national teacher.

……

Chu Ye rushed back to the capital immediately after surprise attacking the Jingwei Army last night.

Falling from the sky into the sleeping palace shocked Wen Ru a lot. Seeing Chu Ye's safe return, Wen Ru felt relieved.

When the shocking news spread to the courtiers on the second day, Chu Ye wandered around the harem like a normal person, all the way to Fengyi Palace.

"The emperor is here!" Eunuch Xu's voice sounded.

"Slaves (servants) see the emperor!" All the eunuchs and maids in Fengyi Palace knelt down in unison.

"How is the queen?" Chu Ye asked eagerly.

At this time, a court lady beside the queen stepped forward and said, "Go back to the emperor, the empress is feeling a little better today."

Chu Ye was overjoyed when he heard the words, and quickly walked into Yi Lingyin's bedroom.

Sure enough, Yi Lingyin's complexion improved a lot today, and she was slightly surprised when she saw Chu Ye coming.

"The concubine sees the emperor." Yi Lingyin struggled to prop up her upper body.

Seeing this, Chu Ye quickly stepped forward to gently support the other party, and whispered in his ear: "There is no need to be polite."

"What is the emperor's visit to Fengyi Palace today?" Yi Lingyin asked at this time.

"Isn't it okay for me to come and see the queen?" Chu Ye smiled.

Yi Lingyin was startled when she heard the words, Chu Ye's smile attracted her a little at this moment, so she quickly turned her head away and murmured: "The concubine never said no..."

At this time, Chu Ye had already taken the soup from the hand of the maid, and then looked at Yi Lingyin: "I came to see you today, and I am very relieved to see that your complexion has improved, and there is nothing else."

Now that Yi Lingyin's injury has not healed, Chu Ye still doesn't say anything about the court affairs for the time being, but Yi Lingyin bowed her head in silence after hearing the words, and just asked Chu Ye to feed him the medicine obediently.

"Cough cough!" It seemed that Yi Lingyin choked on the drink, and Chu Ye immediately put down the medicine, stepped forward and patted his back.

"This medicine is really difficult to drink..." Yi Lingyin muttered.

Chu Ye got up immediately when he heard the words, and greeted outside: "Come here!"

Soon, he fetched a few cubes of sugar and put them in front of Yi Lingyin. Yi Lingyin stretched out her jade hand to pick up a piece of sugar. Seeing Chu Ye's behavior, she couldn't help chuckling: "Your Majesty has really changed a lot." Woolen cloth."

Hearing this, Chu Ye's heart skipped a beat, but he immediately responded, "I have never changed."

"Oh?" Yi Lingyin looked at Chu Ye.

After Chu Ye paused, he looked at the other party very seriously and said, "It's better to say that the empress has never changed."

Yi Lingyin didn't expect Chu Ye to respond like this, she didn't know what to say for a while, and she was a little flustered: "The emperor has been treating me..."

At this time, Chu Ye also got up and wanted to leave: "I still have something to do, so I'll go back first."

Yi Lingyin was left at a loss.

After coming out of Fengyi Palace, Chu Ye heaved a sigh of relief. For some reason, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated towards Yi Lingyin. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough.

"Run after teasing, it's so exciting!" Chu Ye murmured.

Back in Jing'an Palace, Chu Ye still couldn't calm down for a long time. The figure of Yi Lingyin was always lingering in his heart, which made him a little annoyed.
