Chapter 191 Aftertaste
Nie Yuansheng did not return to the palace to see Ji Shen until the morning of the third day. Although his clothes were neat, the ink was slightly wet. It was clear that he came in a hurry after bathing. Ji Shen consciously knew the truth of Mu Biwei's sudden disappearance, so he still told him to add a seat at the next head to give him breakfast and wait for Nie Yuansheng. After Xie En entered the table, he was surprised and said, "Why haven't you been there for two days in a row?"
"Your Majesty will know later." Nie Yuansheng smiled. Although he had bathed, his expression could not hide his fatigue.
Ji Shen said, "I'm just looking for you because I'm afraid that something will happen to you. Now that you don't have enough to make someone come and say something."
"Thank you for your majesty's kindness, but although I have traveled a hundred miles during this period, I was impatiently excited, so I wanted to give a gift to your majesty before I dared to go back to rest." Gu Changfu made people divide the breakfast in front of Ji Shen. Nie Yuansheng drank a cup of hot tea in one breath, and then he arched his hand and smiled. His eyes were bright and extremely excited.
Ji Shen became interested: "What did you hunt?"
"Lei Jian will bring it later. Please don't ask your Majesty." Nie Yuansheng said with a proud face.
Ji was deeply curious, but she was a little tolerant of Nie Yuansheng, so she no longer asked. She just signaled Dai Shi, who was serving beside him, to continue to pick up vegetables, but she was single-mindedly waiting for Lei Jian to come.
Fortunately, Lei Jian arrived not slowly, but in a column of incense, the little maid guarding the gate of the palace came in to report that Lei Jian claimed that he was entrusted by Nie Yuansheng to send something to the imperial library. Ji Shen naturally did not hesitate to order to announce it.
Not long, Lei Jian personally sent in a square thing that looked like a cage covered by cloth. Judging from his brilliance, the things inside were very unusual.
Ji Shen ordered with great interest: "Uncover the cloth."
Lei Jian smiled and said, "I obey the order!" With that, he raised his hand and lifted the cloth - there was a sound of admiration in the hall!
"Golden Fox!" Ji Shen was also stunned, and then sighed. Looking at Nie Yuansheng's eyes, full of appreciation, "The fox is cunning, and the golden fox is still very treacherous than the purple fox and the white fox. Although it is not as ferocious as tigers and bears, it is more difficult to use than tigers... Even Xuanning's son-in-law and the patrolman joined hands to shoot one head. I don't want Yuan Life can be caught alive! No wonder I didn't come back for two days and three nights!"
"I accidentally found its whereabouts a few days ago, so I thought about getting into your majesty alive, but I was also worried about missing it, so I didn't tell others and went quietly. I tossed around for two days and two nights. It was not until yesterday evening that I was successfully captured alive, but I also made myself embarrassed. At that time, it was far away from the station, and I spent the general in the tree for one night. Today, I galloped back at dawn and hurriedly cleaned up. I guessed that Your Majesty had got up and couldn't wait to bring it. When Nie Yuansheng presented the golden fox in the thunder prison, he ate seven or eight points of the soup in front of him, which showed the hard work of these two days. At this, when he heard Ji Shen open his mouth, he put down his teeth and chopsticks, took a handkerchief from the palace girl behind him to wipe the corners of his mouth, and said with a long smile.
Ji Shen also had a look of approval, but then thought of something and said, "Yuansheng wanted to capture the golden fox and me alive, but I didn't know that in the two days when you didn't tell me, someone came to slander you! It's really funny!"
——The matter the day before yesterday ended with the result of Ouyang's responsibility for all the murder of Mu Biwei and transferring the blame to He Baojin. He's plan is strict and seamless. Ji Shen now has no doubt about Mu Biwei at all, and naturally feels that Nie Yuan is afraid of being reckless. Now that Nie Yuansheng has spent two days and two nights trying to catch a golden fox alive, he feels more and more guilty about him.
When Nie Yuansheng heard the words, he was not surprised. Instead, he smiled and joked, "I don't know what he said? Is it possible to say that I rolled up the prey in private and ran away?"
"This golden fox looks quite similar to the one presented by the upper building, but it is taller. I don't know if it is a pair?" Although Ji Shen is a free-go person and doesn't pay attention to the rules at all, he is not so excited that he is suspected of being connected to the harem when talking openly with foreign ministers in public. The traitor changed the topic and looked at the golden fox, who was obviously washed in the cage and was not very energetic.
"I don't know, but I think this thing is rare. The last time Xuanning's son-in-law and Lou Dalangjun hunted a female fox, but the person I got was a male fox. The place where I found its trace was not far from the place where Xuanning's son-in-law was found last time. I think it's mostly a pair." Nie Yuansheng has always been clear-minded. Seeing that Ji Shen refused to speak directly, he smiled and said along his topic, "Your Majesty is brave and can hunt tigers alone. I am far from it, and I can only hunt foxes to fill them... The sound of tigers and foxes are close, but it is barely manageable."
Ji Shen couldn't help laughing and said, "I'm not so sure about you!"
"Your Majesty will be embarrassed if you want to take a better prey than this golden fox." Nie Yuansheng has always been talking and laughing in front of Ji Shen. At this moment, he sighed, "To be honest, this fox has really played the word treacherous and slippery to the extreme. I still escaped several times by it, and Shengsheng was dragged out a hundred miles away to win. If it persists for a moment, I can't stand it. This spring hunting, I's spirit It's all used on it. I'm afraid I'll have a good rest in the next few days, and I can't hunt any more.
Although he said this, the fatigue between his eyebrows was difficult to hide. Ji Shen saw it and said, "Since you are tired, you don't have to restrain any etiquette. Just take a nap in the palace first. I will stay with Changfu to serve you."
"My farewell..." Nie Yuansheng just said a word, and Ji Shen interrupted disapprovingly, "After all, the farewell business is far away. In order to catch the golden fox alive for me for two days and two nights, it took you to rush back to the palace. What if I leave you in the palace for one night? There are so many people around!"
With that, he got up and ordered Gu Changfu to take him down to rest. Nie Yuansheng's eyes saw that the place where Gu Changfu stood was Ruan Wenyi's position in the past, but Ruan Wenyi was not in the hall. He also pretended to be tired and unconscious and retreated.
After seeing his back disappear, Ji Shen called Lei Jian to order: "In these two days, I will personally tell Yuan Sheng that you should restrain the palace people and not talk too much in front of him!"
"I obey the order!" Lei Jian naturally responded quickly and served Ji Shen's hunting with Dai Shifu and Si Yu's daughter, who served breakfast today.
................................................................................................................................................................................
Nie Yuansheng lifted the hem of his robe, easily climbed over the courtyard wall, went to the porch without being shocked, and knocked gently in front of the door.
After a while, Mu Biwei opened the door. Seeing him, she was stunned and then looked behind him quickly. Nie Yuansheng smiled and said, "How can I act so impurely?"
"How did you get here?" When Mu Bi heard the words, she let him in, clasped the door with her backhand, and asked in a low voice and in surprise.
"Your Majesty sympathized with me for two days and two nights, hunting the head of the golden fox alive for him, and seeing that I was exhausted in the meal, he asked Gu Changfu to take me to sleep in the palace for a day." Nie Yuansheng sat on the couch and was in high spirit, but where was he a little tired?
In the past two nights, whether he was hunting the golden fox or doing something else. Mu Biwei could roughly guess and couldn't help saying, "Golden fox? Isn't it the couple that Xuanning's son-in-law and his son hunted last time?
"Your Majesty just guessed so. I think it should be." Nie Yuansheng said leisurely, "The fox is cunning, not to mention the rare golden fox? It's alive again. Not to mention that I've been chasing for two days and two nights, even for three or four days, no one can doubt anything. This really helps me!" There is a lot of color between words.
Mu Biwei heard the meaning of his words: "Did you prepare the golden fox in advance?" She couldn't help getting angry, "You didn't tell me! It made me trembling until now the day before yesterday, thinking about how you want to explain this sudden disappearance!"
"It was accidentally trapped by Gao Qi." Nie Yuansheng smiled and said, "He originally planned to take care of it for me. I happened to send you to him. You were sent to the pastoral family by Min Erminsi. I discussed with him to escape, and he took out the golden fox. Didn't I just make a plan?"
Mu Bi exhaled slightly and said, "Although we didn't make He's successful this time, she was also satisfactory! Do you already know the results of these two days?
"I know how to come to find you quietly?" Nie Yuansheng restrained his smile and said seriously, "Since I want to tell your majesty that I have been quietly hunting foxes these two days, I took the golden fox and rode a horse without the mark of the Ye City Army that Gao Qi had prepared for a long time ago to gallop a hundred miles, and then laid all kinds of traces of hunting and its escape, until last night, I estimated that your dust Ai settled down, and then deliberately made him embarrassed to return at night... I was not nearby these two days, and He was not disposed of by his majesty? When I met her, I saw that she was not serving in the hall. There was a look of raising their eyebrows between Dai and Si's eyebrows. Why should I think that He has been abolished?
"He Ronghua's wisdom is much higher than we think!" Mu Bi sneered and was worried. She confirmed, "What if Your Majesty asked someone to call you? Does it matter if you stay here for a long time?"
Nie Yuansheng smiled and said, "If you talk about it carefully, I'm curious about how she got off?"
"You reminded me before that He was worried that Sun Guicubine's status would be unpreserving after her fall, so she saw that Sun Guicubine was weak before spring hunting, and the Empress Dowager did not use her to hit Sun Guicubine. She was a little dissatisfied, so she had dealings with Sun Guicubine." Mu Bi sighed slightly, "I thought that she had been fighting with Tang Longhui since she entered the palace, and firmly grasped Zuo Zhaoyi. Ping Suli put on the virtuous and virtuous concubine, that is, she had any connection with Sun Guifei. In other words, it was also for the balance between the two sides, so that she could benefit from it, so when she went down the mountain that day When I met her and hid the words, I also ridiculed her once..."
Speaking of this, Mu Bi gritted her teeth slightly and said, "I didn't expect her to be straightforward!" For more than a year, she has been lying low in front of Zuo Zhaoyi and Ouyang. Unexpectedly, she turned her face and turned her face - she directly dragged Ouyang directly into the water and cushioned her back. Dai and Si raised their eyebrows, not because of He, but because of Ouyang!"
"The night before, His Majesty removed Ouyang's position from Ninghua and demoted him to a beauty - His Majesty also said that Ouyang was neither talented nor virtuous. Among the scattered numbers, only the beauty could barely get it, and if it hadn't been for the Empress Dowager's sake, he should have directly asked the Ouyang family to take him back!"
Mu Biwei couldn't hide her anger and said, "I heard that Ouyang's uncle and cousin privately asked your majesty for the reason for the matter yesterday. Your Majesty said bluntly that it was because Ouyang's murdered me and blamed He! I...!!!!"
She was dragged into the water like this!
Watching Mu Qi become the real behind-the-scenes real murderer He's shield from the hatred of the Ouyang family!!
