Chapter 18 Adoption of Shangguan Wan'er

On December 18th of the first year of Lin De, the imperial edict reported that Cui Xuanzhe, the former supervisor, committed suicide, and Shangguan Fu, the slave of Shangguan Yi's family, hit the wall and died. Both of them were afraid of guilt. Gao Zong was furious. Xue Rengui, the general of Yulin, blocked the scene and ordered the officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to cooperate with the review to find out the truth. However, a few days In the end, there was no fixed opinion. The ministers were furious and wrote to impeach Dali Temple for neglecting his duty and ignoring people's lives. The bullets flew into the inner court like snowflakes, and the emperor was very upset.

On December 20, Li Xian, the king of Lu, and Li Xian, the king of Zhou, joined hands to mention that there is a fear of dereliction of duty in Dali Temple, but it is not from the original intention. It should be punished. Now, since the suspect is dead, there is no evidence in the case of Shangguan Yi. There are many doubts among them, and it seems that the original punishment should not be applied. If it is released and exempted, I am afraid that there will be a suspicion of being frivolous. If It is suitable for a suitable match. As soon as this chapter came out, there were many disputes among the ministers, and there were both supporters and opponents. For a moment, the siege of Dali Temple by the ministers was dissipating. Gao Zong was lucky enough and immediately approved this chapter. A possible uproar was a paragraph, and the name of Li Xian's "Xiao Wang" spread all over the world.

"The fog covers the makeup moon, and the wind shocks the temples. The book is waiting to be returned, and the tears are all white.

On a hill bag at the five-mile pavilion in the east of Chang'an City, Shangguan Yi, dressed in a gray robe, stood silently in the snow, and her eyes looked back at the foggy Chang'an City. Like a sculpture, she let the drifting snowflakes fall, but she never moved. Her mood was difficult to calm down, and she couldn't help but think of the old one she sang last year. In "Zhaojun's Grievance", the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, and he chanted it in a low voice, and his tone was full of bitterness.

Degrading Aizhou (present-day's Qinghua, Vietnam), this is where Shangguan Yi is about to take office, and it is also the place where the famous prime minister Zhu Suiliang is matched ten years ago. At the beginning, when Zhu Suiliang was matched, Shangguan Yi secretly ridiculed Zhu Suiliang's ins insible sense of current affairs, but now, the person who does not know the current affairs has changed to himself. Thinking that Zhu Suiliang could not return to Chang'an when he died, Shangguan Yi's heart sank like a mountain.

"Father, it's time to go."

Just when Shangguan Yi was in turmoil, Shangguan Tingzhi, with a haggard face, walked carefully behind him and whispered a warning.

Yes, it's time to go. Although there are countless reluctance and retentions, Shangguan Yi shook her head bitterly, and finally looked at Chang'an City, turned stiffly, looked at Shangguan Tingzhi's words silently, and then silently walked to several carriages under the hill. His back was depressing and lonely. .

"Father, look, someone is coming!"

Shangguan Yi had just taken a few steps, and suddenly Shangguan Tingzhi's voice of surprise came from behind her.

"Oh?" Hearing this, Shangguan Yi's body first stiffened, and then suddenly turned back. He hurried to the height, put his eyebrows in front of his eyebrows, and looked nervously at a carriage galloping from Chang'an City. It was not until the carriage ran to see the emblem clearly that Shangguanyi's face calmed down. Regardless of how his son was chattering, he rushed down the hill bag and stumbled in the direction of the carriage.

"The criminal official respectfully welcomes His Royal Highness the King of Zhou."

The carriage ran all the way and rushed straight to not far from Shangguan Yi. Then it stopped slowly. The curtain moved, and Li Xian, dressed in a white fox fur robe, walked down from the carriage by Gao Mi. Before he landed, Shangguan Yi had already greeted him and respectfully.

"Your Excellency Shangguan doesn't have to be so polite. Xiao Wang planned to see him off early in the morning, but unexpectedly, he was delayed because of common affairs. Fortunately, he finally caught up." Li Xian peacefully raised his hand, motioned Shangguan Yi to be exempted from etiquette, and then explained a few words with a smile.

"Your Highness, how can the criminal, how dare you come, criminal..."

In the years since she was the prime minister, Shangguan Yi has never paid attention to such a silent and nameless prince as Li Xian. Even if he meets the ministers at the emperor's banquet, he rarely looks at him. However, such an inconspicuous little guy has become his lifesaver of Shangguan Yi this time, which makes Shangguan Yi can't help but feel a little Zi sighed a lot, and for a moment he choked so much that he couldn't speak - it is rumored that Shangguan Yi's death for the rest of his life was the reason why Li Xian, the king of Lu, tried his best to save him, but Shangguan Yi himself knew that this was actually done by Li Xian, the king of Zhou, because Li Xian's performance on the execution ground was obviously stronger than that of Li Xian, who seemed to be extremely majestic-- Although Li Xian's words are not many, they all happen to be on the point. Others may not see anything strange, but Shangguan Yi eunuchs have not understood who is the real person in charge of the overall situation for decades.

Oh, poor old man! Looking at Shangguan Yi's excited appearance, Li Xian was also a little uncomfortable. Of course, it was not because of the tragic experience of Shangguan Yi, but because he was reminding himself to be cautious. After all, the political road has always tolerated a little mistakes. A carelessness is doomed, especially in the face of When Wu Mei Niang is such a big enemy, she should be even more cautious.

"Your Excellency Shangguan has gone thousands of miles to Aizhou, and the road is difficult. I hope you can take care of yourself. Xiao Wang has prepared some entanglement, which may be helpful." Li Xianshi couldn't bear to see Shangguan Yi very sad, so he smiled and waved his hand, signaling Gao Miao to take out a small box from the car and submit it to Shangguan Tingzhi, who followed him.

"Your Highness, the official is unforgettable. If he is possible, the official will definitely do the work of the criminal." Although Shangguan Yi did not know why Li Xian took a lot of trouble to save his family, he knew that this kindness was as deep as the sea. He was afraid that it would be difficult to pay it off all his life, which simply showed the intention of the effect.

Other day? There is no such thing as other days, alas, poor old man, not to mention the other day, even in Aizhou, I'm afraid you can't get there! In the face of the effect of Shangguanyi, Li Xian was not excited at all, just because he had guessed that the ending of Shangguanyi was definitely not good. Although he had the intention to save him, it was a pity that he could not reach it, and he did not dare to break it again. In fact, Li Xian did not come here to buy Shangguanyi's heart, but had other thoughts. Therefore, Li Xian He didn't say anything to accept Shangguan Yi's effect, but nodded with a faint smile and said, "Your Excellency is polite. Well, Xiao Wang really has something to discuss with the old man here. Please borrow a word."

"Okay, Your Highness, please!"

Shangguan Yi couldn't figure out what Li Xian's intention was, but she didn't hesitate much. She nodded, waved her hand, and gave Li Xian to the side of the road.

"Lord Shangguan, I heard that a new daughter was added to your house half a year ago. It seems to be called Shangguan Wan'er, right?" After the two walked to the road far away from the people, Li Xian asked with a smile on his face.

"Yes, it's true. I don't know why you..."

Shangguan Yi originally thought that Li Xian's move was either to accept him in private or to ask him about the secrets of the court, but he never thought that what Li Xian asked was his granddaughter who had not yet reached the age of age. He couldn't help but be stunned and stood for a moment, and then he hesitated to answer half of the words.

Why? It's a long time to say this. Shangguan Wan'er in the previous life was a talented woman with good appearance. Li Xian had a deep affection for him, but unfortunately, he was blocked by the Empress Wu and could not include it into the room as he wished. It was not until after Li Xian ascended the throne for the second time that he got what he wanted. The reason why Li Xian would do his best to serve Shangguan Yi in his previous life. The reversal of the case is the reason why he loves the house and Wu. This time he can save Shangguan Yi once, but he is unable to save him for the second time. Li Xian does not want his lover of his previous life to be annihilated in the conspiracy too early. It is inevitable to rescue him, but the reason in this is not practical to be outsiders.

"Well, it's like this. Xiao Wang thinks that Aizhou is far away and is located in a smoky land. Wan'er is born, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to withstand such hardships. If the old man can rest assured, he will be fostered in Xiaowang's house first. It's good for the old man to return home when he comes back in the future. I don't know if Lord Shangguan can rest assured?" Li Xian really couldn't follow the official to explain the secrets inside, so he could only vaguely put forward a reason.

"This..."

The more you listen to Li Xian's explanation, the more confused Shangguan Yi is. She can't figure out what Li Xian did. You should know that although Shangguan Yi has only one son, she has three grandchildren, all of whom are young. The oldest is only more than six years old. If Li Xian wants to be sympathetic to children, he should also leave a grandson. There is no reason to leave a girl like Shangguan Wan'er, how can she not make Shangguan Yi muttering?

Explanation? No matter how you explain it, you can't explain it clearly. If you say more, you will only make more mistakes. In this case, just don't say anything. In the face of Shangguanyi's doubts, Li Xian closed his mouth, but smiled and said nothing, allowing Shangguanyi to make her own decision.

"Well, Wan'er is young and really uncomfortable with the pain of bumps. Since she is wrongly loved by His Highness, how dares not obey the criminal? This child will be handed over to His Highness. In the future, it is up to His Highness to be a slave and maidservant." Shangguan Yi is a straightforward person. Although he couldn't figure out the intention of Li Xian to take in his granddaughter, he did not hesitate much. After a moment of meditation, he happily agreed.

"Lord Shangguan, don't worry, Xiao Wang will not make Wan'er suffer any grievance, but if Xiao Wang is in one day, there will be no time for Wan'er to suffer!" As soon as Shangguan Yi opened his mouth, Li Xian's originally worried heart finally settled down. He arched his hand with a smile and replied firmly.

"Your Highness, wait a minute, the criminal is going to bring Wan'er over." Shangguan Yi didn't talk any more nonsense. After returning a bow, she strode to her own motorcade.

"Your Highness, this is the dog's daughter-in-law Sun, and the old granddaughter Wan'er is in his arms." After a disturbance, Shangguan Yi led a haggard young woman with a baby in her arms back, punched Li Xian and briefly introduced her.

"I'm sorry to your highness."

Shangguanyi's daughter-in-law, Sun, is not very old. She is less than 30 years old. She was originally a well-prepared person, but she was imprisoned for several months. She had been destroyed and became much older. Her face was as pale as paper and almost bloodless. When she saluted Li Xian, her movements were extremely stiff and her whole body was shaky.

"Mrs. Shangguan, you're welcome. This is Wan'er." Li Xian calmly received a salute from Sun, but his eyes were attracted by the red and tender little guy in Sun's arms.

"It's the little girl. I'm very grateful that Wan'er can be taken in by your Highness." Sun was obviously reluctant to leave her daughter, but she did not dare to disobey her father-in-law's order. She reluctantly hugged Wan'er in her arms and shook it gently. Then she hesitantly handed Wan'er over to Gao Mi, who had followed her.

"Let me hug you." Before Gao Mio reached out to pick it up, Li Xian had stretched out his hand first and took Shangguan Wan'er from Sun's hand. He looked down and thought of Wan'er's peerless face in his previous life, and his eyes couldn't help but be a little crazy...
