www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Sheng Chong's Daughter-in-law: The Medical Concubine!

Spring is finally coming to the north in March, and the spring rain is falling, nourishing the earth.

The sky was a bit gloomy on a rainy day, and a few palace lanterns were lit in the royal study, which was so dim that sometimes people could hardly tell the difference between day and night.

Han Lingfan, who was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, frowned and raised his head from a pile of memorials. He rubbed his brows, as if a huge stone was pressing on his heart.

In the past month or so, the Yellow Turban Army in Jingzhou has become a phenomenon. The imperial court failed to recruit people, and they occupied another city. At the end of February, an earthquake occurred in Moshan City, Yanzhou. The entire city and surrounding villages and houses were shaken. Most of it was destroyed, and there were countless casualties...

Han Lingfan felt a dull pain in his forehead. He stood up and walked to the window. He looked at the drizzle falling like threads in the courtyard, pattering like a piece of melancholy that kept getting sorted out. ,endless.

Since Han Lingfu, the brother of the Third Emperor, seemed to be at peace on the surface after being released from prison, he was secretly colluding with the courtiers and was ready to take action.

Thinking about it, Han Lingfan couldn't help but clenched his fist.

At first, Yongyang did not agree with using roundabout methods to lure Han Lingfu into trap. Instead, he suggested that he directly send the Jin Yiwei to raid Han Lingfu's residence. The evidence would naturally be obtained by then. However, the Queen Mother disagreed, saying that the court and the people I had doubts about the legitimacy of the new emperor, and I could no longer tarnish the emperor's reputation.

After Han Lingfan hesitated, he finally obeyed the Queen Mother's wishes, but in the end he hid hidden dangers...

Hey——

Han Lingfu looked at the drizzle and couldn't help but sigh.

He knew that he was too indecisive and missed such a good opportunity...

Nowadays, the court is in chaos, the political situation is unstable, and domestic disasters are happening one after another.

How should I, no, Dayu get out of this predicament?

The wrinkles between Han Lingfan's eyebrows deepened, and his mind was at a loss.

At this moment, there was a sound of light footsteps from behind, and a young chamberlain came to report respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Second Young Master Jiang and the Second Young Master Nangong want to see you!"

As soon as he heard that Jiang Mingqing and Nangong Xin were coming, Han Lingfan's brows relaxed slightly, his face showed joy, and he hurriedly said: "Hurry up!"

After a while, two handsome young men walked in one after another and bowed respectfully to the new emperor.

After Han Lingfan gave him a seat, the two sat down.

Looking at the pile of memorials on the imperial case and Han Lingfan's frowning expression, Nangong Xin and Jiang Mingqing exchanged a tacit look, and they all guessed what Han Lingfan was worried about...

As usual, the monarch and his ministers had discussions and worked together to approve the backlog of memorials, leaving only a few remaining for the time being.

The drizzle outside stopped at some point. The monarch and his ministers sat by the window to drink tea. Nangong Xin and Jiang Mingqing looked at each other quickly, and Jiang Mingqing said after considering it: "Your Majesty, have you ever heard of this? , Recently, there are rumors in the capital that the emperor's "blood recognition" incident in Jingzhao Palace a while ago was because the emperor deliberately slandered Han Lingfu, just because the late emperor preferred Han Lingfu as the heir apparent when he was still alive. The late emperor had no choice but to do so under the coercion of the Zhennan Palace. He established the emperor as the crown prince, so he will continue to target Han Lingfu after he ascends the throne..." with the intention of killing him!

The atmosphere in the imperial study became solemn as Jiang Mingqing narrated. Jiang Mingqing actually spoke euphemistically, and he did not dare to speak out some of the more unbearable speculations among the people to taint the Holy Spirit's hearing.

Han Lingfan pursed his lips tightly, his face as heavy as water.

Nangong Xin said: "Your Majesty, there have been some literati and bachelors in the royal capital discussing this matter recently, and they are all filled with indignation... If this continues, I am worried that there will be another turmoil, just like the Enke fraud case. Please consider it carefully, Your Majesty. , don’t give the ‘traitor’ an opportunity!”

On the one hand, these scholars are good at demagogueing people, but on the other hand, they are also the ones who are most easily incited to make troubles. If they don’t make decisions and take action early, things will probably get bigger and bigger, and get out of hand!

Han Lingfan frowned when he thought about the turmoil caused by the fraud case. If Huang Hetai had not had real talent and knowledge, this incident would have been a scandal in the history of Dayu that could be recorded in the annals of history...

After a moment, Han Lingfan raised his head, looked at the two of them and said, "Axin, Aqing, please accompany me to Zhifeng Garden."

Chufeng Garden is a teahouse in the royal capital. It is where most literati students gather. They often recite poems and write poems in Zhofeng Garden, talk about current affairs, and act as if they are giving guidance to the country.

Nangong Xin and Jiang Mingqing immediately stood up and bowed in unison to accept their orders.

When Han Lingfan wanted to leave the palace, he naturally had to go on tour incognito. Under the service of the chamberlain, he changed into a royal blue brocade robe with ruffled edges and a jade hairpin on his head. He looked as elegant as a crown jade. , just like an ordinary young master from aristocratic family.

The three of them left the palace with only a few imperial guards and rode towards the south of the city.

Zhufeng Garden is on the most prosperous Haozhong Street in the south of the city. Han Lingfan also went there with Nangong Xin and Jiang Mingqing during the last Enke period. After four years, Zhifeng Garden is to Han Lingfan. It really feels a bit familiar yet strange.

In Zhifeng Garden, it was still as lively as last time. In the lobby on the first floor, several people dressed as scholars were debating with each other expressing their opinions.

The three young men were led to the second floor of the tea house by the waiter. They sat on the railing and could clearly overlook the lobby on the first floor.

At this moment, several scholars in the lobby were discussing the Yellow Turban Army in Jingzhou. Some said that they should be recruited, while others said that the rebellious ministers and traitors should be exterminated in order to serve as a warning to others.

Some of the words he said were quite insightful. Han Lingfan occasionally nodded slightly, until a sharp male voice suddenly said coldly: "Rebellious ministers and traitors?! The Yellow Turban Army is just a helpless ordinary people who were forced by corrupt officials. It's a dead end, so the biggest traitor is in the south!"

In an emergency, there was a "clunking" sound, and a blue-robed scholar sitting by the door stood up angrily and bumped into the stool behind him with a crashing sound.

"Brother Wang is right!" The blue-robed scholar echoed loudly, with a hint of cynicism between his brows, "It is said that Prince Zhennan and his son in southern Xinjiang are about to establish a kingdom. Huh, then they are rebellious ministers and traitors, people People can be punished!"

"What?! The Zhennan Palace wants to establish a country?!"

"Brother Yu, you don't even know this! The Zhennan Palace has already announced to the world that the country will be established as 'Yue' in June."

"Does the imperial court just allow the Zhennan Palace to do whatever it wants?!" Another young scholar stood up and asked at the top of his lungs. For a while, many scholars showed signs of approval, and the crowd was furious.

"How could the Tian family send troops to attack the Zhennan Palace if they themselves are not in the right position?!" A cold and disdainful male voice came from the direction of the gate. The Tianjia he mentioned was of course the new emperor Han Lingfan.

Looking around, I saw a medium-sized scholar in blue robe crossing the threshold. His robe had been washed white, and there was a hint of arrogance in the corner of his mouth.

No one noticed that when Nangong Xin on the second floor saw this person, his pupils shrank slightly, and his right hand holding the teacup subconsciously exerted a little force.

"Brother Li, come sit over here!" The blue-robed scholar immediately called him to sit down next to him, and then said, "So Brother Li has also heard those rumors about the Tianjia and Zhennan Palace?"

Mr. Nali made a mocking snort and said, "Who doesn't know that the Tian family was pushed up by Zhennan Palace!"

"Brother Li is really upright and dares to say things that others dare not say!" The blue-robed scholar's eyes lit up and he bowed solemnly to Young Master Li.

"My little brother is just expressing his feelings." Mr. Li clasped his fists modestly.

"Brother Li, please stop being modest." A scholar in a Li-colored robe sitting at the same table with them said, "Brother Li has a noble character. Because the Zhennan Prince's Palace is rebellious, Brother Li disdains to be with the prince of Zhennan Prince. Brother-in-law, he doesn’t hesitate to divorce his wife!”

For a moment, there was a gasp in the lobby, and everyone looked surprised. Even Han Lingfan and Jiang Mingqing on the second floor were thoughtful. They had also heard that the second girl of Nangong Mansion and A matter of righteousness between husband and son-in-law.

Nangong Xin's gaze shot past like a sharp arrow, and anger surged in his heart. At first, because his uncle Nangong Qin was involved in the Enke fraud case, Li Chengen did not hesitate to divorce his wife to sever the relationship with the Nangong family. In the end, Nangong Yan broke up with her. Unexpectedly, he would now confuse right and wrong outside and slander Nangong. Yan's reputation! This person's character is really despicable!

The scholar in blue robe made another long bow: "Brother is benefiting and righteous, which makes me admire you!"

"Young students are just ashamed to be associated with treacherous people." Li Chengen felt a little carried away under the admiring gazes of everyone. He straightened his back, looking as righteous as the sun and the moon, and sighed, "The way of heaven is unfair, like today The family is a puppet of the Zhennan Prince's Palace. It only brings suffering to the people and suffers our students to study hard in cold windows, but is unable to serve the country. We can only watch the traitors run rampant..."

The more Nangong Xin listened, the uglier her face became, and she cast a questioning look at Han Lingfan. Han Lingfan nodded slightly and made a gesture to indicate that he could help himself.

"Confusing right and wrong, speaking nonsense!" Nangong Xin stood leaning on the railing, looking down at Li Chengen with cold eyes.

Although Li Chengen below felt that the voice was familiar, he didn't recognize it for a moment and said angrily: "What's wrong with Xiaosheng..."

Li Chengen stopped abruptly in the middle of his words. He looked at Nangong Xin on the second floor in disbelief. He did not expect that Nangong Xin would appear here. Thinking of the divorce he just mentioned, his face felt irritated. Hong, but then he said to himself that it was not him who said he divorced his wife, he just did not deny it!

Nangong Xin looked at Li Chengen's wandering eyes with disdain in his heart and said coldly: "According to the system, it is not wise to establish a legitimate son, and it is not a virtue to establish a son to be noble. This is the emperor's legitimate son. Originally, he is the emperor's legitimate son. He is the legitimate prince; according to etiquette, he is the prince appointed by the late emperor himself. He has offered sacrifices to heaven and earth, the Ancestral Temple, and Sheji. All documents and ceremonies have been registered by the Ministry of Rites, and have been witnessed by hundreds of officials in the court. A few people, without any reason or evidence, are just making nonsense here and talking about the Heavenly Family. It is really a waste of your hard work in this cold window!"

The lobby downstairs was silent for a moment, and several scholars' faces turned red with anger, not because of shame, but because of anger.

A scholar shouted angrily: "So what if there is a document?! Wasn't the late emperor forced by the Zhennan Palace and the emperor to issue the edict? Who in the court knows about it?!"

Others also echoed one after another.

Han Lingfan looked on with a chill in his heart. He always felt that as long as he had a clear conscience, as long as he managed the country well, the rumors would naturally dissipate... But he didn't know that this was evasion and incompetence. It was his "temporary" that made Dayu more and more out of control, and people's hearts In turmoil, the country is in turmoil.

If this continues, Dayu may be destroyed in his hands!

"Axin!" Han Lingfan stood up and raised his hand to signal Nangong Xin, who was about to say more, not to say any more. Only then did Li Chengen notice that there were two people beside Nangong Xin, and suddenly thought of Nangong Xin. Xin used to be Jinshang’s companion, and her pupils could not help but shrink, thinking: No way...

As if to verify his inner guess, Han Lingfan said calmly: "The imperial examination system is to select good talents. A good article must not only have a clear argument, but also be meaningful and well-founded. Otherwise, it is just rhetoric. In the past ten years, if you don’t even understand this basic principle, how will you be able to judge prison sentences and cases for the people in the future?!"

Han Lingfan looked around the crowd and his voice became louder: "As for Dayu's future, you can wait and see!"

After the words were spoken, there was a dead silence in the entire teahouse, even the sound of breathing stopped, and the temperature dropped sharply.

Han Lingfan didn't want to say anything anymore, dusted off his robe, rolled up his sleeves and said: "Axin, Aqing, let's go!"

Han Lingfan walked down the stairs first, followed closely by Nangong Xin and Jiang Mingqing.

Until they left, there was still no sound in the teahouse. The scholars all looked at each other, vaguely guessing that the person just now had an extraordinary origin, until Li Chengen stammered: "He...he can't be today." ..."

What? ! The other people's faces suddenly turned pale without a trace of blood, and many people were so frightened that they almost lost their feet. They were just angry for a moment. Most of them also wanted to obtain fame in the future and join the imperial family, but the students present today were tantamount to offending them. Once the Jin Yiwei investigated their identities, would they still be able to pass the exam in the future? !

The more the students thought about it, the more frightened they became, and they scattered away in fear, feeling that their future was bleak...

After Han Lingfan left Zhifengyuan, he did not go back to the palace directly. Instead, he asked Nangong Xin and Jiang Mingqing to accompany him to Princess Yongyang's mansion.

What surprised him was that not only Yong Yang and Fu Yunyan were in the Wufu Hall, but also Princess Yuncheng.

Everyone was a close relative. After greeting each other, they all sat down without being too restrained.

Han Lingfan talked gently with Yunchengdao, and inevitably mentioned Yuan Lingbai and Yuan Yuyi in southern Xinjiang, "Aunt, I heard that cousin Yi's marriage has been decided?"

When talking about his daughter's marriage, a smile appeared in Yuncheng's eyes, and he nodded and said: "Yes, Mrs. Yu from Southern Xinjiang came all the way to propose marriage in person, and I have already agreed."

At first, Yuncheng asked his daughter to go to southern Xinjiang with his second son just to avoid trouble. He didn't expect that his daughter's fate would be in southern Xinjiang. Mrs. Yu had shown great sincerity by traveling all the way to the royal capital to propose marriage, which made Yuncheng even more satisfied with the marriage.

Yuncheng came here specifically to see Yongyang today because of Yuan Yuyi’s marriage. She wanted to discuss the dowry with Yongyang. After all, she was marrying far away and marrying to southern Xinjiang. She originally bought the land for her daughter in the south of the Yangtze River. , I’m afraid it’s not appropriate...

Han Lingfan smiled slightly and said: "That's good. I will also ask the Queen Mother to add makeup to Cousin Yi."

Seeing that there was no trace of grudge on Han Lingfan's face, Yuncheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile in his eyes became even stronger.

When he received a letter from Nangong Yue asking about Yuan Yuyi's marriage, Yuncheng also came to discuss it with Yongyang. Yongyang agreed to let Yuan Yuyi marry to southern Xinjiang. First, she went there a few years ago I also met Mrs. Yu when I was in Nanjiang, and felt that the Yu family had a pure and upright family tradition. Secondly, although Nanjiang was separated from Dayu, it was not an enemy of Dayu, and there was no need to walk on thin ice.

As soon as Yong Yang said that, Yuncheng wrote back and agreed to the marriage, but she was still worried that the new emperor would be unhappy. It seemed that her aunt was judging a gentleman with a villain's heart.

The sons of the late emperor are indeed the broadest in the world!

Recalling the behavior of the other imperial nephews, Yuncheng felt a little sad.

She knew that since Han Lingfan came to Yongyang to discuss something important, she did not stay long and wisely left first. Fu Yunyan got up and saw Yuncheng off in person.

The two figures quickly disappeared at the entrance of the courtyard, leaving only Yong Yang, Han Lingfan, Nangong Xin and Jiang Mingqing in the room.

After a moment of silence, a flash of determination flashed in Han Lingfan's eyes. He raised his eyes to look at Yong Yang, who was sitting next to him. He looked directly into her eyes without evading, and asked solemnly: "Auntie, How can we get rid of the Third Emperor Brother?"

"..." Yongyang's pupils narrowed and he raised his eyebrows, looking at Han Lingfan in surprise.

She always knew that Han Lingfan was a good boy, but being a good boy did not mean that he would be a good emperor!

As an emperor, just being kind is not enough...

This is the first time Han Lingfan has been so determined!

Yongyang's sharp eyes were a little complicated, but also a little relieved.

That day, the Queen Mother tried to use Wuhe ointment to trick Han Lingfu. Yongyang did not agree with it from the beginning, and even vaguely guessed that the matter might not go smoothly due to Han Lingfu's suspicion. But considering that she was getting older and she didn't know how many years would come in the future, she couldn't always protect Han Lingfan. He would need to suffer some setbacks before he could grow up, so Yongyang didn't say much and left it to the Queen Mother... …

However, of course Yongyang still left a way out.
