Chapter 91 The position of Shangshu, the meritorious emperor


Nalanchu walked straight to Meng Yue and stood respectfully, acting like a subordinate.

Meng Yue glanced at her and said, "I heard from the secret guard that it was your plan."

Nalan initially nodded in agreement.

Catching the man in black was indeed her plan.

It happened back when Nalanchu failed to catch up with the man in black and was talking to the secret guard.

At that time, Nalanchu said: "You protect my safety, so you don't continue to chase the man in black and just stay by my side.

In the same way, the man in black came to the Shilang's Mansion not for fun, but to visit the prince and Gu Shilang conversation, so the man in black will come back, and if we want to capture him, we just have to wait and wait."

When he said this, Nalanchu knew that the man in black must be eavesdropping.

How do you know that the reason for eavesdropping is because since the man in black came to explore the conversation between Meng Yue and Gu Shilang, he would never return empty-handed.

Nalan Chu's words were divided into two parts.

The first half was true, and the other part was false.

He wanted to capture him and just wait and see.

This was just to cover up the eyes and ears of the man in black.

No one's IQ is so low that others can catch him with nothing, and naturally, neither can the man in black.

After he was discovered in the main hall, the defense must be strengthened.

The man in black would not go to the main hall looking for death, so if the man in black wanted to know what Meng Yue was talking about, he had to find another way.

Therefore, Nalan Chu planned to lure him to find other methods.

While planning, he considered almost all the concerns that the man in black might have.

Afraid of Meng Yue’s secret guards It's okay, Nalanchu personally ordered the whereabouts of each secret guard, and he happened to let him know where the secret guards were located.

Don't dare to go to the study room It's okay.

Nalanchu asked the secret guard chief to kneel at the door.

Because the secret guard chief was Meng Yue's confidant, it was okay to ask the secret guard chief to find out about Meng Yue's affairs.

And although there are a few guards at the door, the defense is nothing compared to that of the main hall.

Therefore, even if the man in black did not dare to go to the study, he should still have the courage to go to the door to catch the secret guard captain.

Are you worried that the secret guard will be stronger than him over time?

It's okay.

Nalanchu gave the secret guard long medicine.

As long as the secret guard takes it, he will lose his martial arts.

He will be like a useless person.

Is he still afraid of a useless person?

Thinking about it this way, can the man in black not go to the door to catch the secret guard captain?

So, with Nalanchu's very considerate help, the man in black went to the door.

The man in black wanted to take the secret guard chief back for interrogation, so he put his hand on the secret guard chief's shoulder.

But the next moment, he was captured by the secret guard captain.

Didn't it mean that the secret guard captain lost his martial arts?

What happened to his counter-grabbing hand?

this question Nalanchu looked at the secret guard captain, smiled, and said, "You responded well and were quite smart.

When I threw the medicine to you, you already understood what I meant, so you didn't take the medicine.

Although you I know it’s humiliating for you to kneel at the door of the palace, but you still obey my orders and kneel at the door of the palace.

Yes, that’s right.”

The secret guard captain was embarrassed by the praise and gradually blushed.

In fact, before catching the man in black, he did not understand what the princess meant.

The reason why he didn't take the medicine was because he refused to accept the princess' punishment.

When he caught the man in black, he suddenly realized that the princess was planning to catch the man in black.

The secret guard captain was ashamed of his villainous heart, but at the next moment, he suddenly discovered that the princess seemed to have known his true thoughts for a long time.

The reason why she praised him so much was only because of Gu Shilang, who was also in the main hall at this time.

Gu Shilang didn't know the true identity of the princess.

The princess at the moment was the prince's attendant.

The attendant's status was not high.

How could he order himself, let alone that order which was extremely insulting.

Therefore, the princess said that he endured the humiliation and knelt down because he understood what she meant.

This kind of rhetoric can make the arrest of the man in black more reasonable.

Meng Yue took a few glances at Nalanchu and the dark guard commander, and then he knew the reason.

Looking at Nalan Chu, his eyes were increasingly full of appreciation and joy.

Nalan was surprised at first.

Isn't he just making a plan?

It deserves appreciation.

Could it be that Meng Yue is acting because Gu Shilang is here?

The more Nalanchu thought about it, the more it made sense.

Meng Yue worked hard at acting, and she also cooperated to prevent Meng Yue from performing a one-man show.

As a result, Nalanchu's expression became more humble, his head lowered further, his eyes looking at the back of the shoes, counting the invisible dust on the shoes.

From beginning to end, Gu Shilang was observing Nalan Chu and Meng Yue.

Judging from the current situation, this follower is very clever and is highly appreciated by King Ke.

From this point of view, if he wants to rely on King Ke to obtain the position of minister, this person must further win over him.

"Shilang Gu, I brought him back to the palace."

Meng Yue pointed at the man in black.

How dare Shilang Gu not respond?

Meng Yue looked up at the sky and realized that it was getting late and said: "The sky is getting dark now, and I need to leave the palace.

Concubine Gu has not returned to the palace for a long time, so she asked her to stay a little longer and come back before evening. " Concubine Gu is a concubine, and it is a gift for King Ke to secretly come to the palace to investigate.

There is absolutely no reason to return to the palace with his concubine.

Gu Shilang nodded in response.

Meng Yue looked at him deeply and said, "Shilang Gu, don't forget what I said."

Gu Shilang lowered his head slightly, neither responding nor refusing.

After Meng Yue and others left, Gu Shilang was still standing in the hall for a long time.

Lin Pinchen, the staff member, walked out from behind the screen and said to Gu Shilang: "Your Excellency, the position of King Ke's Minister just now is about to be vacant, and I must be willing to let Your Excellency fill it."

Gu Shilang slowly opened his slightly closed eyes, "Jing'an's official position is not easy to fill.

Regardless of whether King Ke has the ability to ask me to fill the vacancy, even if he does, why let me fill it?"

"In Pinchen's opinion, King Ke is by no means a weakling.

If he wants to place his own person in the post of Minister of Rites, it is not impossible."

Lin Pinchen said: "As for why you let your Excellency serve as Minister of Rites, Pinchen thinks ,Original There are two reasons.

Firstly, your Excellency is the father of Concubine Gu.

The prince loves your concubine, so he will naturally help you.

Secondly, your Excellency has served in the Ministry of Rites for more than ten years and is already familiar with the affairs of the Ministry of Rites.

Therefore, you are capable.

Take the post of Minister."

Gu Shilang knew his abilities well, and he was more than adequate for the position of Minister.

The reason why he had not been promoted in recent years was because the current Wang Shangshu was in the Ministry of Rites and had a good career, so he had no chance to make meritorious deeds.

But Gu Shilang was thinking deeply about the first reason Lin Pinchen put forward.

Will King Ke really dote on Concubine Gu?

Lin Pinchen said he doted on Concubine Gu, and King Ke's entourage also said he doted on Concubine Gu, but did he really dote on her?

Lin Pinchen saw the confusion on Gu Shilang's face and said, "My lord is worried about whether the eldest lady Gu's concubine's favor is true or false."

"What do you think?"

Lin Pinchen said: "Pinchen believes that this matter is true."

Gu Shilang frowned, "If you want to be pampered, why wait until now?

Why didn't King Ke pamper her during the four years she was married into Prince Ke's palace?"

Lin Pinchen said with a smile: "Since your Excellency said this, it seems that you don't believe what the entourage just said, or maybe you just believed it at the time and became suspicious later."

Gu Shilang nodded.

When he listened to the attendant's explanation, he felt that it made sense, but then he thought that the man was King Ke's attendant, and he would inevitably follow King Ke's orders to fool him.

At this time, Lin Pinchen could only hear Lin Pinchen say: "My lord, Pinchen thinks that the words of the entourage are very reasonable.

It is inevitable that the king dotes on the eldest lady.

Even if it is false that the king dotes on the eldest lady, King Ke has already expressed his love to the eldest daughter.

Your Excellency revealed his intention to be promoted, so King Ke must have had the intention of promoting you."

"Promotion?

Even if it is promotion, why did King Ke promote me?"

In the carriage, Nalan Chu said: "Yue, look at old guy Gu, he must have been coveting the position of Minister for a long time.

When you proposed the position of Minister just now, I saw something strange on his face, but he seemed to start to believe it.

I don't know why he doubted my words later.

Well, it's reasonable for him to suspect that I said those words to him intentionally after your orders.

After all, I am your follower.

However, I think you are worried about Mr.

Gu.

What does promotion mean?”

"I promoted him because I needed him to do something.

But now, Gu Shilang still doesn't know why I promoted him, nor what I want to do through him."

Nalan first thought, Gu Shilang didn't know why Meng Yue promoted him.

What if he didn't accept Meng Yue's promotion?

I was about to ask, but felt that the question didn't exist at all.

Meng Yue's promotion of him was a pie in the sky.

Of course Gu Shilang would be stupid enough not to pick up this pie.

Thinking of what Meng Yue needed Gu Shilang to do, Nalanchu asked.

"Gu Shilang has served in the Ministry of Household Affairs for nearly twenty years.

He knows the actions behind the Ministry of Household Affairs better than anyone else.

If he is asked to make some false information, he is also more proficient than anyone else."

Meng Yue paused and said: "I urgently need Mr.

Gu to make a fake for me, but this matter is very important.

According to Mr.

Gu's temperament, only someone who becomes me will do it for me."

This is exactly why Meng Yue needs to convince Gu Shilang that he loves his concubine Gu.

If Gu Shilang is to become his person, only Concubine Gu will be favored or have an heir in a short period of time.

Nalan first thought that the matter that required Meng Yue to fake something must be serious.

Who made Meng Yue go to war so violently?

Nalanchu's mind suddenly thought of that emperor's face.

Nalanchu suddenly felt that everything Meng Yue did today was all for her.

She hugged Meng Yue and asked softly: "Yue, is what happened today because of me?"

Meng Yue nodded, "Since you know something, I won't hide it from you."

Nalanchu listened carefully with sharp ears.

"The prestige of old General Nalan has surpassed that of the late emperor.

The late emperor could not tolerate the glory of Nalan Mansion back then."

Later, Meng Yue told a story about a hero whose achievements were so great that the emperor suppressed the hero.

Old General Nalan was a hero, and the late Emperor was an emperor.

After Nalan first heard it, he said with emotion: "When you started telling it, I knew the ending.

I thought that usually heroes would not end well, but it turned out to be true.

It's just such a bloody and sad story.

It actually happened to my grandfather.”

After sighing, Nalanchu asked: "Then what does this matter have to do with me and what does it have to do with Gu Shilang today?"

Meng Yue said: "I heard that when General Nalan went on an expedition, he was stationed in a mine for several months.

However, a few years later, this mine was found to have been hollowed out."

The Shenma Mine was hollowed out and only a shell of the mountain was left.

Meng Yue explained: "It's a gold mine."

Nalanchu was shocked, "So, my father thought that my grandfather secretly hid the gold made from ore, and now he is trying to get the gold back."

"indeed."

A whole mountain would definitely yield a lot of gold, so it was reasonable for Emperor Ming to be concerned about it.

Nalanchu asked again: "Father wants gold, and the gold is with my grandfather.

I am grandpa's granddaughter, and you like me, so father wants to use me to threaten you and grandpa at the same time."

Meng Yue did not deny it, "So, I want the thing Gu Shilang forged to hide it from others."

Nalanchu was a little puzzled.

Meng Yue continued: "My father always thought that General Nalan had that amount of gold.

Well, if there is too much gold, we call it a treasure.

My father always thought that General Nalan had the treasure.

But regardless of Nalan Does the old general have any treasure?

At this time, it is best to let my father think that the old general Nalan has no treasure."

"So, you want to use Gu Shilang to make false evidence" Meng Yue nodded.

After getting the answer, Nalan Chu was filled with anger, "Father wants gold, go to my grandpa yourself, what are you going to do with me threatening you?"

He hugged Meng Yue tightly and said with red eyes: "My grandfather, a famous general, is naturally not easy to succumb to the power of the emperor.

If my father doesn't get the gold, he will not let me go, right?

Yue, in order to protect me, you must be It’s so painful.”

Meng Yue touched her head and said comfortingly: "Chu'er, I'm fine.

I can handle this matter and protect you."

She said it calmly, but Nalanchu could hear the anger.

She pushed Meng Yue away and gritted her teeth and said: "Don't make it so easy.

You can protect me.

You can protect me.

You can do anything."

Have you ever thought about what you would do if your father got angry with you because you protected me?"

Nalanchu reacted very excitedly, Meng Yue was stunned, and then chuckled.

"You're still smiling."

Nalan Chu wiped his tears and patted his shoulder with his palm.

Meng Yue laughed even harder.

He closed her hand, wiped her tears with the other hand, and said softly: "Don't cry, Chu'er, I know you are worried that I will be angered by my father, but I am a man, and it is my duty to protect you.

It’s like a sweet treat inside.”

Nalanchu cried even harder, "I can tell, my fucking father doesn't care who you favor, all he cares about is his throne.

Damn, my family has gold, military power, so, Father is here to take care of you."

Meng Yue didn't have a deep relationship with Emperor Ming.

He didn't feel anything when Emperor Ming was scolded.

Instead, he was worried that Nalan Chu would be angry.

In fact, what Chu'er said makes sense.

His father doesn't care who he favors at all.

But because Chu'er was the granddaughter of old General Nalan, his father did not allow him to favor Chu'er exclusively.

Because he only doted on Chu'er, it meant that he might be on the same side as General Nalan.

And for a prince to form a faction with a powerful official is a sign of contempt for the imperial power.

Therefore, even if he loves Chu'er to death, he cannot favor Chu'er exclusively on the bright side.

After Nalanchu scolded him, he returned to Meng Yue's arms and said in a crying voice: "Yue, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that you won't be able to continue on this road to imperial power.

Last time you took Baozi to learn martial arts, you said if you One day I’m gone, so I let Baozi protect me.

I don’t want Baozi to protect me, I just want you to protect me.”

When Meng Yue said this, she didn't pay much attention to it.

Instead, she still thought that she didn't rely on others.

Only now do I understand the pain in those words.

In fact, it has nothing to do with Meng Yue whether he relies on others or not.

Meng Yue gently stroked her head.

He said nothing and just held her quietly.

For a long time, the two of them were in love, their hair fell down, and their clothes were wide open, covering a man and a woman who were closely attached to each other.

At this time, the two of them had a perfect blend of body and mind.

She was enjoying endless bone erosion, but in her heart, Meng Yue had confessed to Nalan Chu the things that she was unwilling to confess to her.

She thought that Chu'er knew that this was not good for her, but in fact, his Chu'er was already good enough.

For example, the perfect plan to catch the man in black at the Minister's Mansion was devised by Chu'er.

The future is filled with excitement and confusion, but whether it is sad or happy, they will face it together
