Hearing the sound and looking over, he saw a carriage parked not far from the back door, with the word "Pei" written on the license plate hanging in the center.
It’s the Pei family’s carriage!
As the words fell, the curtains of the carriage were raised, and Right Prime Minister Pei stepped out of the carriage.
Appearing in this place at this time must be an evil person!
Yan Mingzhu narrowed her eyes slightly, stepped forward, stood in front of the young and old of the Yuan family, and said: "The first seven days have passed, and the Yuan family just followed the custom of burying the coffins of my grandfather and the others in the ancestral grave so that the heroes' souls can be preserved."
Fallen leaves return to their roots.
Your Prime Minister Pei is blocking the door this early in the morning. Could it be that he also wants to do his part to burn incense in front of my grandfather’s grave?"
Hearing this, Prime Minister Pei You twitched his lips with a smile, "The Prime Minister and Marquis Yongyi were officials in the same dynasty after all. What's more, Miss Yan San was once the Prime Minister's eldest daughter-in-law. This stick
Fragrance, as it should be,
But before favors, there is the law of the country. When His Majesty ordered Dali Temple to reiterate the case of Marquis Yongyi, he decreed that until the truth was found out, the Yuan family, young and old, were not allowed to step out of the gate of the Marquis' Mansion.
But now, you, a big family, are carrying the coffin out with great fanfare. Are you ignoring His Majesty's imperial edict? This is a serious crime of disobedience and blatant disobedience!"
Yan Mingzhu's eyes darkened, this old fox had been stuck here all morning, just using Emperor Zhao's imperial edict to make trouble!
Before she could speak, Mrs. Yuan took a few steps forward, grabbed Yan Mingzhu's hand, and pulled her to her side. With her old body, she invisibly gave Yan Mingzhu the protection of her elders.
"Youxiang Pei, although your majesty has a holy decree before you, it is human nature to allow the bones to be buried in peace. Even if your majesty knows about this, thinking of the fact that the princes have dedicated their lives for Da Zhao in the past, you will be accommodating.
,
I don’t need to bother Prime Minister Pei here to talk about the national laws and worry about it. If His Majesty really blames him, I, an old man, can also bear the burden. Get out of the way and don’t block the return of the Marquis and others.
Way home!”
A trace of gloom flashed in Prime Minister Pei's eyes. This old immortal thing has a very tough mouth!
He smiled instead of getting angry, "It is not the duty of the prime minister to guard Yongyihou's mansion. The prime minister does not want to take care of it, but I just don't know if Shi Youwei can be accommodating to the Yuan family?"
While speaking, Mr. Pei stepped aside and saw Shi Zhen, who was supposed to go to the court to report his duties, but now he appeared at the back door.
"Shi Youwei, today is the day when Marquis Yongyi and his companions are buried. I am actually a former colleague of Marquis Yongyi, so I hope that he can rest in peace. However, if the young and old of the Yuan family step across this threshold today,
, that would be a major dereliction of duty as a right-back on your part,
I wonder if this matter reaches the ears of the veterans at Yushitai, will they impeach you? Shi Youwei is still young, and it is not easy to have such a status, but you should think twice before acting.
Ah, do you think so?"
Shi Zhen's face was livid. If Youxiang Pei was not present today, even if he had responsibilities first, he would probably turn a blind eye and choose to let the Yuan family go out so that they could bury Yongyi Hou and others.
Corpse.
But at this moment, Youxiang Pei is here, and once he lets go, as long as the Yuan family takes half a step out of the threshold, the Yushitai's impeachment report will fly to Emperor Zhao.
By then, he may not be able to protect his black gauze hat!
Facing the angry gazes of the Yuan family, Shi Zhen could only say: "Mrs. Yuan, I humbly serve as your Majesty's order to guard the Marquis' Mansion. Without His Majesty's order, the Yuan family and others are not allowed to step out of the Marquis' Mansion. Please retreat immediately."
Go back, otherwise don’t blame the Imperial Army for hurting someone!”
Yuan Yi laughed and was so angry that she pointed at Shi Zhen's nose and cursed: "You villain! Coward! In order to keep the black gauze hat on your head, you are so ruthless and unjust, God will definitely strike you to death with a thunder!"
The Imperial Guards on the side immediately drew their sabers, and Mrs. Yuan Er immediately hugged Yuan Yixiao and protected her tightly in her arms, "If you want to attack my daughter, chop me to death first!"
The senator's wife was so angry at the ruthless faces of these people that she almost lost her balance. However, when she was about to speak again, Yan Mingzhu held her hand and gave her a calming look.
Then, Yan Mingzhu looked at Shi Zhen and said: "Your Majesty does not allow the female members of the Yuan family to step out of the Hou Mansion, but I am not on the list. If I leave the Hou Mansion with my grandfather and their coffins, should Shi Youwei leave?"
Do you have any other opinions?"
What Youxiang Pei, a traitor, has done today, he will have to repay twice as much sooner or later!
But today, the most important thing was to let Yong Yihou and his coffins be laid to rest first. Yan Mingzhu made a decision immediately.
As long as there is a bloodline of the Yuan family, they can escort the coffins of Yong Yihou and others to the ancestral grave for burial, and also allow them to rest in peace under the nine springs.
This is the only way at the moment.
Shi Zhen is not an unkind, cold-blooded person. What's more, before the incident, the Yuan family had always had a good reputation in the imperial capital. The descendants of the Yuan family are all well-educated and will not act recklessly based on their power.
Thinking of this, Shi Zhen relaxed: "That's okay..."
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Pei Youxiang suddenly took over: "Miss Yan San is not on the list, so naturally she can come and go as she pleases, but you can't take away the coffins of Marquis Yongyi and others.
Your Majesty's imperial edict states that the Yuan family, young and old, naturally includes Marquis Yongyi and others. If this is the case, their coffins cannot leave the Marquis's residence even half a step, otherwise Your Majesty will still punish them if he finds out."
The senator's wife lowered her face and clenched her fists, "Pei, please don't bully others too much. You are so cruel that you won't even let go of the dead. Aren't you afraid that when you dream back in the middle of the night, some evil ghost will come to seek your life?"
?”
Youxiang Pei laughed disdainfully, "Then I will disappoint the wife of the senator. I have never believed in gods and ghosts. Moreover, I only act in accordance with the rules and regulations. If I am upright, I am not afraid of slanting shadows, so why should I be afraid of evil ghosts?"
?”
As he said that, Pei Youxiang looked at Shi Zhen and said, "Shi Youwei, you have to hurry up. The longer it takes for the Yuan family to step out of the gate of the Hou Mansion, the worse it will be for you. You may not know, but the Yushitai is impeaching you now."
As soon as the book is in front of His Majesty, your future will be ruined."
It is obvious that Youxiang Pei appears here today just to prevent the Yuan family from having an easy time!
Shi Zhen is just a right guard of the imperial army, how dare he go against a first-grade prime minister?
Helpless, he could only give the imperial guard next to him a look and said, "Mrs. Senator, it's difficult to fulfill your sacred destiny. Please return to the house immediately and don't let me wait to take action."
The senator's wife stared at him angrily, and the anger in her eyes made Shi Zhen couldn't help but look away, not daring to look at her.
"The coffins of the Marquis and others have been carried away from the Marquis' mansion. There is no reason to go back. If you dare to touch the coffin of the Marquis today, you will step over my body!"
