Liu Yushi wrote a divorce letter that day and sent Mrs. Liu back to her parents' home.
He is known for his fairness and strictness, which is the foundation of his life. Naturally, he cannot let a woman ruin his official reputation and future.
After divorcing his wife, he went to Prince Jin's Mansion with gifts to apologize. Unfortunately, the door of Prince Jin's Mansion was closed and he could not put down the gifts.
He held up his hands to the concierge and said, "Please tell me, brother, that I have disrespected the prince and that I have divorced my wife..."
The porter interrupted him, "Whether you divorce your wife or not is your family's business, not our prince's business!"
After saying that, he slammed the door shut.
After Liu Yushi heard this, he felt at ease in his heart and left carrying his things again.
On the second day, Han Rui reported illness and asked to resign. The memorial first reached the hands of Luo Shangshu, the Minister of War.
Luo Shangshu had already learned the whole story from his grandson Luo Yongliang. Because it involved the King of Jin and Duke Ding, he did not dare to make the decision without authorization. He submitted the memorial to the desk of the Imperial Study Room and reported it truthfully.
Qingming Emperor Zhao Chengche was in his forties, had a short beard, and had the tradition of royal handsomeness. However, his pair of sinister and sharp eyes made his whole personality extraordinarily gloomy and depressing.
He threw the memorial heavily on Long An, "So, Han Rui was forced by the King of Jin to resign."
"I don't dare to deceive the emperor, that's why."
Luo Shangshu is over sixty years old. He has experienced two dynasties and has seen many changes. He knows very well that the emperor in front of him is cruel and ruthless and is not someone who is easy to fool.
He didn't dare to adulterate a single word of the report he had just given, for fear that he would lose his job later in life, lose his official position, and risk the lives of his entire family.
Emperor Qingming said, "It's just a trivial matter about the material of a woman's clothes, but it forced Liu Yushi to divorce his wife and Han Rui to resign. My Seventh Emperor's brother is rare for his ruthless methods."
Luo Shangshu knelt on the ground and did not dare to speak nonsense.
The emperor cannot be deceived, and Prince Jin cannot be offended. According to Prince Jin's methods yesterday, whoever he wants to attack, he will not touch anyone with blood, and he will not touch even the slightest blood.
Emperor Qingming asked, "Do you think it's possible that King Hongluan of Jin has moved?"
Luo Shangshu replied ambiguously, "Back to the emperor, I am too stupid to understand the thoughts of Prince Jin. However, the prince made such nice clothes for Miss Chen, so he must not dislike her."
"Well, I gave him a total of three pieces of Kesi silk and Yun brocade as tribute this year. Most of them are plain materials suitable for him to wear. He was quite willing to give them to Miss Chen."
Emperor Qingming turned the jade ring on his thumb and said, "If the King of Jin accepts Miss Chen as his concubine, he and Duke Ding will be considered in-laws, and they will have to call Duke Ding an uncle. Miss Chen has no parents, so Duke Ding is worthy of being called uncle." For his father-in-law. If Lu Lin marries Zhao Xiang'er again, then Prince Cheng and Prince Jin will be even closer to each other."
Luo Shangshu suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He understood what the emperor meant. If these two marriages were successful, King Jin would have four to five million soldiers and horses and the entire imperial army behind him!
The Northwest Army and the Southwest Army accounted for almost half of the Zhou Dynasty's troops, and the Royal Forest Army was by the emperor's side, which almost trapped the emperor in a urn!
Emperor Qingming stood up and paced, walked to Luo Shangshu and stood in front of him, "Han Rui's eldest daughter remarried to his grandson. I wonder how the King of Jin should call Aiqing?"
Luo Shangshu suddenly fell to the ground and said in panic, "I don't dare! Miss Han has a noble destiny, and my foolish grandson is stubborn and despicable, so she doesn't dare to climb high!"
He was extremely lucky at this time. He had carefully considered not letting his daughter-in-law go to Dingguo Palace to propose marriage last night. It was really taboo for the emperor!
"Is life precious?"
Emperor Qingming asked, "Luo Aiqing also believes in the assertion of Phoenix's fate?"
Luo Shangshu, with a mountain of pressure on his head, replied in a trembling voice, "Back to the emperor, the rumors are like this. No matter whether the rumors are true or false, the Luo Mansion does not dare to climb up to Duke Dingguo's Mansion."
Emperor Qingming gave a faint hum and walked away again.
Luo Shangshu breathed a long sigh of relief, but did not dare to raise his head.
Emperor Qingming sat back in front of the Dragon Case, unfolded the memorial, and Zhu approved the word "quasi" on it.
"Since the King of Jin has said that Han Rui should be the surrogate mother, I have no reason not to allow it. Just go ahead and take the commission."
The chief eunuch Wu Jian held the memorial in both hands and handed it over.
Luo Shangshu got up from the ground, bent his waist and took the memorial with both hands, "I obey the decree."
He bowed his back and backed away. When he got out of the imperial study, he straightened up. His body was already soaked through.
Luo Shangshu thought about the last words the emperor said, asking him to "deliver a mission". Who should he turn to?
Of course it can't be Han Rui. Han Rui is just a white man now. He can't afford him to go there in person, let alone the word "business".
It can only be Prince Jin.
There was clearly anger in the emperor's words.
By asking him to go on such a mission, he was apparently trying to give Prince Jin some face, but in reality he was trying to hurt Prince Jin!
Luo Shangshu figured it out and took the memorial to the Prince of Jin's Mansion.
The concierge of Prince Jin's Mansion did not stop him and was led to the outer study.
King Jin was sitting in the upper seat drinking tea. There was a cup of tea and two plates of snacks placed on the low table next to the chair at the bottom, as if he knew he would come.
After Luo Shangshu greeted him, he stood there uneasily, not knowing how to speak. He was here to help the emperor beat Prince Jin, but it was hard to say whether he could fully carry the hammer out of Prince Jin's palace.
Zhao Chengyuan pointed to the chair below him and said, "Master Luo, sit down."
Luo Shangshu bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for giving me a seat."
He sat down as instructed, but he didn't dare to sit down with his butt firmly planted.
I heard King Jin ask, "Brother, what did you ask Mr. Luo to bring here?"
Luo Shangshu quickly stood up and replied, "Back to the prince, the emperor did not ask me to say anything. The emperor has already approved the details of Han Shilang's resignation. After thinking about it, I thought it would be better to come and report to the prince."
Zhao Chengyuan said calmly, "Well, the emperor is giving face to my brother, the emperor."
However, Luo Shangshu did not understand why the King of Jin wanted to attack Han Rui. He bowed and complimented the apparent brotherhood between the Emperor and the King of Jin, "The Emperor and the Prince have a deep brotherly love. They are role models for ministers and other ministers, and they are great."
Zhou Zhifu."
"Master Luo can see clearly."
Zhao Chengyuan changed the topic, "I asked Master Sun Luo to save Miss Han. I wonder what Mr. Luo thinks?"
Luo Shangshu didn't expect that King Jin would also come to ask about this matter, and he didn't know...whether it was really as the emperor speculated that King Jin wanted to win over their Shangshu Mansion.
He carefully considered his reply and tried to keep it consistent with the answer he gave to the emperor, lest the emperor or King Jin would get angry and the two of them would not know who would question him.
"Reporting to the prince, there are many rumors in the market that Miss Han's destiny is precious. Whether it is true or false, I don't dare to reach high places... After all, the Taoist priest predicted that the emperor will be honored with great honors. It was accurate."
Zhao Chengyuan fiddled with the tea soup with the tea lid and said calmly, "Well, that's right. If she becomes a queen one day and recalls how her grandson saved her, she will definitely feel grateful and repay the favor to your family.
.”
Luo Shangshu's expression changed drastically.
