weak to him

Chapter 67

Wei Han watched En Luhou leave with a smile, and the smile in his eyes gradually turned into a mocking look.He sat at home and didn't let the horses be prepared until the morning was about to end. He wanted to go to the palace to see Yu Zhijing.

Yu Zhijing was tortured by a group of rotten scholars in the Huangji Palace, and finally retreated to escape their claws. The personal eunuch Ma Dexi said: "Is the emperor going to the imperial study?"

"No." Yu Zhijing moved his waist and said, "Just listening to their nonsense, I'm already on the verge of dying. I finally have some free time. Do you want to go to the imperial study to make trouble for yourself?"

Ma Dexi hesitated and said, "Where does the emperor want to go?"

"Didn't they pay tribute to some rare beasts from the middle of Shu recently, I'll go over and have a look."

"Yes..." Ma Dexi thought for a while and said, "The servant will find someone to tell Lord Wei to go to the animal garden to have an audience?"

"What?" Yu Zhijing turned around and said, "Which Lord Wei?"

"It's Mr. Wei Hanwei, member of the Ministry of Criminal Justice." Ma Dexi said cautiously: "Master Wei is still waiting in the imperial study room. Did you see the emperor or not?"

"You dog slave!" Yu Zhijing scolded as he ran towards the imperial study, "Wei Han came and didn't know how to say it sooner..."

Wei Han arrived at the imperial study room ahead of time, and Yu Zhijing hadn't come down yet, so he waited outside the imperial study room.I was a little bored while waiting, so I went over what I was going to say next in my heart.Then he heard the eunuch's news that the emperor was coming, he turned around solemnly and said: "Chen Weihan, I'm here to see the emperor..."

Wei Han's hand was grabbed by Yu Zhijing, "Knock why? Why are you doing this in front of me?"

Taking advantage of the situation, Wei Han stood up straight and said, "The etiquette that should be performed must not be less, and it must not be true."

"You have a lot of things to do." Yu Zhijing turned around and said to the maids and eunuchs: "They are all waiting outside, don't come in." Then he took Wei Han's hand and walked into the imperial study.

Being pulled by Yu Zhijing, Wei Han felt strange in his heart.After he went in, he saw the golden table case again, and thought that if it was played on this table like modern times, it would not be too exciting.

Yu Zhijing dragged Wei Han to the dragon chair, offering a treasure and said, "Come here, try the feeling of sitting on the dragon chair, many people will never be able to enjoy it in their lifetime."

Not many people, almost everyone, okay?Anyone who wants to try the dragon chair can try it?Wei Han walked over and sat on the dragon chair, with his hands resting on the armrests on both sides.Yu Zhijing asked expectantly: "How do you feel?"

"I don't feel anything." Wei Han said seriously, "It's not as comfortable as my recliner."

"That's right." Yu Zhijing sat beside Wei Han in agreement, put his arms around Wei Han's waist and said, "How is the case investigation going? Did you come here because you missed me?"

"Uh..." Wei Han couldn't bear to hurt him, so he lied, "It's not only because I miss you, but also because the case has come to an end."

"I knew that you didn't enter the palace because of me." Yu Zhijing put her chin on Wei Han's shoulder wrongedly, and said, "Just say what you want."

"The leakage of the imperial examination questions has been investigated. Neither Jing Zhaoyin Sun Hao nor Zhou Tan, the Minister of Rites, leaked the examination questions." Wei Han said, "Zhou Tan, the Minister of Rites, is innocent."

"Then who leaked the exam questions?" Yu Zhijing grasped the key points in Wei Han's words, and said, "You said they didn't leak the exam questions, but why did they only say Zhou Tan was innocent?"

"Because the person who leaked the test questions was Sun Hao's son Sun Ying, so Sun Hao is not completely innocent. He is at least guilty of improperly protecting the test questions." After being lured by people, they stole the test questions and sold them to the candidates for money. I have already arrested all the test takers who spent money to buy the questions and returned them to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, waiting to be dealt with."

Wei Han handed Li Yu Zhijing a piece of paper filled with the list of candidates. Yu Zhijing took it and only glanced at it before slapping the paper on the table angrily.

"Darong has so many corrupt officials because of these talents. When they were students, they disregarded the laws of the country. Wouldn't it be worse when they became officials in the future?"

Wei Han scratched his eyebrows, he felt that what Yu Zhijing said made sense.At the beginning, he cheated in the imperial examination, and now he is thinking all day about how to form a party for personal gain and how to make money...

Yu Zhijing asked: "You just said that Sun Ying was seduced by someone, who is that person?"

"It's Zhang Yue, Marquis of Enlu." Wei Han said truthfully.

"..." Yu Zhijing widened his eyes and said, "Who are you talking about? Zhang Yue? My uncle?"

"Yes, it's your uncle." Wei Han said mercilessly: "Zhang Yue asked Sun Ying to steal the test questions, and then he sold the test questions to the candidates, and he and Sun Ying shared the money equally. And he asked Sun Ying to steal the test questions this morning. You came to my house to find me, and wanted me not to make this matter a big deal."

"This bastard!"

Yu Zhijing was so angry that he stood up, walked back and forth in front of the desk, and said angrily: "Thanks to my mother's love for him, I didn't expect him to do such a wrong thing, I..."

Wei Han said seriously: "Since ancient times, foreign relatives will rely on their relationship with the royal family to do some evil things, and others will tolerate them everywhere because of this relationship. When Sun Ying was interrogated before, he always refused to tell Zhang Yue’s name was because he felt that Zhang Yue would be fine no matter what, and he was afraid that Zhang Yue would retaliate against him afterwards, so he dared not say it.”

"Revenge?" Yu Zhijing blushed angrily and said, "I'll chop off his head right now, let's see how he gets revenge?"

"I think so too." Wei Han said: "How many dynasties from ancient times to the present have perished because of their relatives? Therefore, Zhang Yue must be severely punished and must not be tolerated."

Yu Zhijing said: "Why don't I want to punish him severely? But my mother will definitely not agree. Besides, if I punish him severely, my mother will definitely blame you for all this. If I had known, I would not have let you investigate this matter." Enough."

Wei Han smiled and said, "I thought about this before I entered the palace."

"Really? Do you have a solution?"

"En." Wei Han waved at Yu Zhijing, and then said in Yu Zhijing's ear, "If the queen mother asks about this matter, you can lightly send Enluhou according to the queen mother's wishes."

"Isn't that appeasing Enluhou?"

"I haven't finished yet." Wei Han showed a sinister smile and said, "I have already had someone secretly disclose this matter to Prime Minister Xiao Ran. With Xiao Ran's personality, he will definitely not let it go, and there will be an upside-down. At that time, you told the queen mother that you could not withstand the pressure of the courtiers, so you had to punish En Luhou severely. In this way, even if the queen mother blames us, she will not blame us, she will only blame the prime minister."

"Hahaha..." Yu Zhijing couldn't help laughing, and then said, "Will this be too bad? The prime minister is so pitiful."

"It's okay, the prime minister likes to do this." Wei Han smiled and said, "Besides, I don't want to have a relationship with the queen mother because of you, but the prime minister is different, he doesn't care what the queen mother thinks of him."

"Right."

Yu Zhijing was pleased by the sentence that you didn't want to have a tense relationship with the queen mother because of you. He pursed his lips and smiled: "You see that you usually don't care, but you still care about me in your heart."

Wei Han silently looked away and said, "You are the emperor, of course I care."

"You are still stubborn." Yu Zhijing rushed over to hold Wei Han's head and kissed him on the mouth. The two kissed for a long time and finally separated. Yu Zhijing said: "You just care about me."

Wei Han leaned on the dragon chair and looked at Yu Zhijing who was leaning over him, and the two stared at each other for a long time.Suddenly someone outside reported that the queen mother was coming, Yu Zhijing was so frightened that he took a step back and almost fell, Wei Han also hurriedly got off the dragon chair.

Anyway, when Empress Dowager Zhang came in, Wei Han had already knelt on the ground respectfully, and Yu Zhijing was also sitting upright on the dragon chair.

Empress Dowager Zhang came in with Marquis of Enlu Zhang Yue, Wei Han said: "My ministers see the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager is blessed and safe."

"This is Mr. Wei, right?" Queen Mother Zhang said to Wei Han, "You are really a good-looking talent, please excuse me."

"Thank you Queen Mother." Wei Han stood up respectfully and looked at the Queen Mother quietly.

Queen Mother Zhang looks very young in her early thirties, and she is well maintained.She is wearing a beautiful and majestic skirt, and the jewelry on her head and body complement each other, making her look graceful.Having become the Queen Mother at such a young age, Wei Han inevitably thought of some unofficial history of the harem that he had seen in modern times, but she was Yu Zhijing's mother-in-law, and Wei Han didn't dare to think too much about it.

Empress Dowager Zhang said: "Master Wei is here to report to the emperor about the leakage of the imperial examination questions?"

"If you go back to the Queen Mother, that's right."

"Yes." Empress Dowager Zhang said, "I don't know what the emperor plans to do with this matter?"

Yu Zhijing was a little confused: "This matter is of great importance, I..."

"Your majesty." Before he finished speaking, the queen mother said: "The Ai family knows that your uncle is at fault for this matter, but no matter what he is, he is still your uncle. Although you are the emperor, you can't ignore the family ties and Ai family That’s why there is such a brother.”

Yu Zhijing: "Mother, don't you cry?"

"The Ai family knows that revealing the test questions is a capital offense. How can you tell the Ai family not to cry?" The queen mother wiped her tears and said, "What is more sad than seeing your relatives executed with your own eyes?"

Yu Zhijing's head was getting bigger, he finally realized how good Wei Han's previous idea was, if it wasn't for Wei Han, his head would explode now.He walked over to support Empress Dowager Zhang and said: "Mother, don't be sad, I don't plan to pursue uncle."

Yu Zhijing said in a good voice: "No matter how you say it, he is also my son's uncle. Even if it is for the sake of my mother, my son can't do anything to him. Wei Han came to tell my son as soon as he found out the case, and no one else Knowing this, I can keep my uncle safe."

"Okay." Empress Dowager Zhang patted Yu Zhijing's head and said, "Ai's good son."

Enluhou also knelt on the ground immediately, kowtowing to thank Yu Zhijing.

Wei Han lowered his head and glanced at Enluhou, meeting his eyes.Enluhou smiled at Wei Han, and Wei Han smiled too.Although both of them were smiling, only they could understand the meaning of it.

After finally coaxing the queen mother away, Yu Zhijing sighed: "I used to think that the queen mother is wise, but I didn't expect her to be so confused."

Wei Han comforted: "As long as you can handle it yourself, you are the emperor now, so you can't just think about yourself when you do things."

Yu Zhijing stretched out his hand to Wei Han, Wei Han walked over to hold it, and he said: "My mother just said that Zhang Yue is my uncle, but I didn't see how close he was to me when I was unsuccessful, now I am the emperor , he leaned closer."

"It's okay." Wei Han patted him on the head, "He won't bother you after this time."

Yu Zhijing let go of Wei Han's hand, and hugged Wei Han into his arms.He hugged Wei Han's waist and said, "Why is your waist so thin? Don't you usually eat well?"

Wei Han sat on his lap and said, "It's not that I'm thin, but you are too fat, right? Life in the palace is too extravagant, and sooner or later you will become a fat man."

"Do you still like me when I become fat?"

"I don't like it." Wei Han said without hesitation, "I only like handsome thin people."

"..."

Yu Zhijing asked Ma Dexi to send Wei Han out of the palace, and Wei Han walked to a large pond in a good mood.He said: "I remember the last time I came here, there seems to be no pond here?"

"Your memory is good." Ma Dexi said with a smile: "The emperor said that there used to be a pond in Yue Wangfu, and he missed it very much if he couldn't see it in the palace, so he ordered people to dig this pond and named it a pond."

"One pool?" Does it mean the same pool inside and outside the palace?Wei Han stopped to watch amusedly, it is winter now, and there is a thin layer of ice on the surface of the pool.In summer, when the lotus leaves grow and the lotus flowers bloom, it should be very similar to the lotus pond in Yuewangfu.

"Your Majesty, there seems to be some official in front."

The palace maid reminded in a low voice, Fu Cailian saw Wei Han standing by the pool from a distance with her belly outstretched.Although it was just a back view, she also recognized it.Why don't you wear a cloak when you go out in winter? What should you do if you catch a cold?Why are you standing outside?

Wei Han looked at it for a while and then walked out of the palace. The coachman handed him the cloak.After he put on the cloak and got into the carriage, Zhao Yi handed him the small heater and said, "It's already cold."

Wei Han didn't care, he put it aside casually, and said, "Seeing that it's going to snow again, I don't know if this year's Chinese New Year will be lively or not."

Zhao Yi didn't answer. Although he was a disciple of Quanzhen, he had already been in the arena for many years.A killer and assassin doesn't have many friends, and he doesn't have any family members. He wouldn't know it was New Year's Eve if every household hadn't set off firecrackers every year.

Zhao Yidao: "Do you want to eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year?"

"I want to eat, um...my brother likes to eat." Wei Han said: "I don't like to eat. Southerners never eat dumplings during Chinese New Year. We always make a big table of delicious dishes, and then the family sits together eat reunion dinner?"

Wei Han felt uncomfortable again as he said that, he was kicked out in modern times.During the Chinese New Year, I watched the Spring Festival Gala with a group of brothers who have no families to brag about it. It was also lively, but I always felt that something was missing.

Zhao Yi fell into deep thought, so he didn't pay attention to what Wei Han said about us southerners.Wei Liao's younger brother should be a serious northerner, so why would he have a New Year's Eve dinner in the south?

The next morning, a few people finally showed up, such as Wei Han who had been investigating the case, and the Prime Minister who asked for a day off because he was beaten up by his mother-in-law.When Wei Han got off the sedan chair, he felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange. He walked up to Gan Yong and said, "Why are those people gathering together?"

Gan Yong said with a smile at the corner of his mouth: "Your Excellency is in the middle."

"What do you mean?" Wei Han asked inexplicably, "Are they discussing something?"

"No, no." Gan Yong said, "It's the Prime Minister who has a lot of color on his face, he's ashamed to see people."

"Pfft..."

Wei Han remembered something, and couldn't help laughing out loud.When the ministers surrounding the prime minister heard the voice, they all cast reproachful glances at Wei Han.

Wei Han quickly restrained his expression, and said to Gan Yong: "There is a good show to watch today, you should be ready."

"I heard that you interrogated Sun Ying last night, and then Marquis Enlu went to visit you at your house early in the morning?" Gan Yong stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Is this what you're talking about?"

Wei Han also said with a blank expression: "If a person is too smart, he will easily lose friends."

Gan Yong: "Hehe."

"The Emperor is here!"

The ministers entered the Huangji Point and lined up.After saluting, Yu Zhijing said: "Yesterday, Wei Han has fully investigated the case of leaking the test questions of the township examination. This matter was done by Sun Ying, the son of Jingzhao Yin Sun Hao. He secretly stole the test questions in order to seek ill-gotten gains. Then sell the test questions to the examinees to make money, such a bold and reckless person who has no law in the country should copy it."

"Nian Zhaoyin, Sun Hao, has been an official in Jingzhao for many years and knew nothing about this matter. Therefore, he was exonerated from the crime of implicating him and allowed to return to his hometown when he was old. Zhou Tan, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, was implicated innocently and was released without charge. He was given gold to comfort him."

The ministers were all talking, and suddenly the prime minister with a face full of bruises stood up, "Your Majesty, I have something to say!"

Yu Zhijing took a closer look, and couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Puff, Prime Minister, what's wrong with you? Hahaha..."

Some ministers who did not have a good relationship with the prime minister also laughed, Yu Zhijing said: "Is this being beaten? You are a majestic prime minister, who would dare to beat you?"

The prime minister's old face was dark and purple, and he said loudly, "Your Majesty! I have something to say!"

"Ahem." Yu Zhijing restrained his expression and said, "Prime Minister, please tell me."

"I want to sue Wailang Weihan, a member of the Ministry of Punishment, for favoritism and malpractice, and to cover up the black hand behind the scenes, Marquis Enlu Zhang Yue, and ask the emperor to remove him from his official position and enter Dali Temple!"

Wei Han immediately jumped out and said, "Why do you sue me? What evidence do you have?"

"The evidence is in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. As long as you call Sun Ying to confront him in court, you will know that the leak of the rural examination questions was all planned by Enluhou." The prime minister pointed to Wei Han and said, "Yuanwailang, you clearly found out The truth, but knowing the law and breaking the law for personal gain, what should you do?"

All the people from the prime minister's line or those who didn't like Wei Han all knelt on the ground, and said in unison: "I beg the emperor to give Wei Han, the member of the Ministry of Crime and Punishment!"

Although Yu Zhijing had colluded with Wei Han a long time ago, he couldn't help but sweat for Wei Han at this moment.If one day Wei Han offended someone and was caught, how should he protect him?

Wei Han knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have been wronged!"

"What have you wronged?" The prime minister pointed at Wei Han and said, "I already know the truth of the matter. You only reported the crime of Sun Ying but not the crime of Enluhou. Is it because Enluhou went to your house to bribe you yesterday morning?" with you?"

This is not bad. Although the gift box given by Enluhou was light, Wei Han found that it was full of silver notes after opening it.For such a simple and crude gift, Wei Han expressed that he would not mind giving it a few more times.

"Enough!" Yu Zhijing said from the dragon chair, "Wei Han already told me about Enluhou, but I didn't pursue Enluhou."
