60. Chapter 60 The Demon Lord Helps (3)
All the officials were astonished. The emperor has never ended his reign so hastily since he has been in power. Why is this happening today?
Shangguan Jing returned to the Chaoyang Palace and spread out the memorial. Even if it turned into ashes, he could clearly recognize the writing on it. He stretched out his hand and touched the words on the memorial. His sinister eyes became particularly soft at this moment.
, couldn't help but murmured to himself, "Is she back?"
Suddenly, I was stunned by my own thoughts, no, how is this possible? Hasn't she been buried underground with the emperor's tomb? How could she come back? But, why is this handwriting exactly the same as hers? What is going on?
?
"Li Gui, who presented this memorial?" Shangguan Jing calmed his mind and asked coldly.
"It was the chief manager of Ye Mansion who reported it early in the morning." Li Gui lowered his head and replied.
"Bring him here." Shangguan Jing said, tightening his fingers slightly.
"Yes." Li Guinai is the chief manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and a close confidant of Shangguan Jing. At that time, he was the young eunuch promoted by Hua Liunian himself. Therefore, Li Guinai was so loyal to Shangguan Jing. Later, Hua Liunian disappeared mysteriously.
Li Gui secretly inquired about Hua Liunian's information, but found nothing. In addition, the current queen looks graceful, virtuous and generous, but in fact she is the most ruthless. If he hadn't acted cautiously and repeatedly expressed his loyalty to Shangguan Jing and her, I'm afraid...
He had been killed by this queen a long time ago.
Although Li Gui is illiterate, he just took a secret glance at the memorial that made Shangguan Jing so flustered. However, with just one glance, he almost fell over. This handwriting was the most familiar to him. Back then, he was
Being by her side day and night, his steps suddenly trembled, and he quickly calmed down and retreated.
When he came to the side door of the west gate of the palace, seeing Ye Xian still waiting, he stepped forward and asked, "General Manager Ye, are you okay?"
"I met Eunuch Li." Ye Xian and Li Gui were old acquaintances. Due to the relationship between the aristocratic family and the royal family, they passed memorial letters to their masters, and they became familiar with each other.
"The emperor calls you in." Seeing that Ye Xian was sweating profusely, Li Gui knew that he had been waiting outside the palace gate for a long time.
"The common people will go with Eunuch Li now." Ye Xian never thought that the emperor wanted to see him, and he was obviously startled again and said quickly.
"Let's go." Li Gui said and took the lead to walk forward.
Ye Xian followed suit, following closely behind Li Gui. Li Gui was thinking about how to get words out of Ye Xian's mouth. The writing on it lingered in his heart, like a needle pricking his heart.
In his heart, he tried every means to pull it out.
"Mr. Ye, the Sa family heard that Mr. Ye personally delivered the funeral. The old lady should be in charge of the Ye Mansion now, right?" Li Gui said vaguely from the side.
"The old lady has long ignored the affairs of the mansion, and now the eldest lady in the mansion is in charge." Ye Xian said, and he was also cursing in his heart why Eunuch Li suddenly asked about the affairs of the mansion.
"Oh, the eldest lady? The Sa family heard that the eldest lady of the Ye Mansion is gentle and delicate, and rarely leaves the boudoir. I never thought that she could support such a huge affairs of the Ye Mansion. She is really a woman who cannot be compared to other women." Li Gui also followed.
Ye Xian continued to ask, but his heart was shocked.
"The eldest lady has a calm temperament, and her style of dealing with things has been inherited from the late wife's. Now, many unsatisfactory things have happened in the Ye Mansion. If the eldest lady hadn't been in charge, the Ye Mansion would have been really in danger." Although Ye Xian didn't know why Li Gui asked.
Regarding this matter, but thinking of Ye Jinsu, he couldn't help but proudly said that it was only the Ye family's fortune that such a smart and wise woman appeared in the Ye family for hundreds of years.
"Then this memorial presented to the emperor was also written by the eldest lady?" Li Gui turned his eyes slightly and looked at Ye Xiandao.
"Yes, it was written by the eldest lady herself." Ye Xian replied. Now, besides the eldest lady Zuo, who else would dare to write a memorial and openly ask the royal family to give the Ye family justice?
"Well, if you want to come to the Sa family, the eldest lady must be extraordinary. It just so happens that the Queen's birthday will be in three days, and the Sa family can also witness the eldest lady's style." Li Gui was shocked when he heard Ye Xian's answer.
He hid his thoughts, stopped talking, and walked towards Chaoyang Palace with Ye Xian.
Shangguan Jing kept staring at the handwriting of the memorial in a daze, his eyes darkened and brightened, brightened and darkened, and his expression was a little confused.
Li Gui stood outside the hall and raised his voice to preach, "Ye Xian, the general manager of the Ye Mansion, comes to see you!"
Shangguan Jing came back to his senses and sat upright. He saw Ye Xian entering with his head lowered and kneeling on the ground. "Common people, please see your Majesty!"
"Ping Shen." Shangguan Jing said in a deep voice.
Ye Xian responded calmly, "Thank you, Your Majesty." He stood up unhurriedly and lowered his head to one side.
"I have read this memorial. Regarding the assassination of Ye Mansion last night, I will definitely find out the truth and give Ye Mansion an explanation. However, I see that every word in this memorial is exquisite. I wonder whose handwriting it is?" Shangguan Jing
Looking up, a pair of gloomy eyes stared directly at Ye Xian, who was standing respectfully.
When Ye Xian heard Shangguan Jing's words, he couldn't help but feel a little confused. He thought that just now Eunuch Li was asking who wrote it. Is there any conspiracy in it?
He calmed his mind, kept a calm expression on his face, and replied in a low voice, "This memorial was written by the current head of the Ye Mansion, the eldest lady of the Ye Mansion, Ye Jinsu."
"Ye Jinsu?" Shangguan Jing murmured in a low voice, as if he was reminiscing. He seemed to have heard this name before, and he had also seen the children of the four major families, but he did not have a very good impression of Ye Jinsu.
profound.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Ye Xian heard Shangguan Jing's silence for a while and then replied.
"Well, please pass my words to Miss Ye. I will definitely give Ye Mansion an explanation for what happened to Ye Mansion last night." Shangguan Jing never closed the memorial and said directly, with a rare low tone.
"Yes, the common people will definitely pass on the emperor's oral instructions to the eldest lady." Ye Xian did not expect that Shangguan Jing would pass it on to him for this matter. He couldn't help but be a little confused, but he still concealed his doubts and answered.
"Please step aside." Shangguan Jing stopped talking and waved his hand.
"Common people, please retire." Ye Xian quickly kowtowed, stood up, and exited the Chaoyang Hall.
Shangguan Jing stroked the familiar handwriting and whispered, "Ye Jinsu?"
"Your Majesty, it will be the Queen's birthday in three days. The Queen has specially posted a message to invite ladies from various aristocratic families to attend the birthday banquet. Your Majesty, will you go then?" Li Gui turned his eyes and stood aside appropriately.
said.
"If you don't mention it, I will forget about it." Shangguan Jing suddenly realized it. He lowered his head and looked at the memorial again, his eyes lit up, "How can I not participate in the Queen's birthday? I will definitely go when the time comes."
"Yes, this old slave will send word to the Queen." Li Gui replied in a low voice with a smile flashing in his eyes.
