faint [rebirth]

Chapter 39: Ask Again

Hearing the bad news about the prince, the queen mother was naturally happy.

She is only a few years younger than Emperor Chengguang, and she is already past the age of knowing destiny.

At that time, she entered the palace when she was young, and after entering the palace, she went through all kinds of difficulties and dangers, and finally sat on the position of queen. She originally thought that she would be able to be the real lord of the harem from now on.

Who would have thought that she would be no match for her life after all? God might not like her to live too well. Seeing that she had just become the harem lord and had not had time to give birth to her own child, the first emperor passed away suddenly and asked her to do it. widow.

When the first emperor was still alive, the empress dowager also supported her concubine's son to fight for the throne, but even if she became empress in the end, she still couldn't win the current Emperor Chengguang.

Because Emperor Chengguang knew what she had done in the past, and disdained her promotion from concubine to empress, he said, "My aunt is younger than me, so I should avoid suspicion." The empress dowager, but she can only have a name, but no power.

People in the world will look at the height of eyebrows and eyes most.Seeing that Emperor Chengguang didn't care about her as his aunt, they naturally followed the will of Emperor Chengguang and only offered her up high. As for power, how could Emperor Chengguang be willing to give her?

For all these reasons, it is quite normal for the Empress Dowager not to like Emperor Chengguang and the children born to Emperor Chengguang.

"Grandmother, under the emperor's uncle's knees, the abolished prince has been imprisoned for more than [-] years, I am afraid he has been abolished long ago; the eighth prince is full of embarrassment, he is still young, and he made a move to force his biological mother to knock out his stomach a few days ago. The matter of the children in the movie——Although I found a glamorous name, isn’t it the same in essence? Uncle Huang has three sons under his knees, and these two sons are useless. As long as we work a little harder, the average There is no chance of inheriting the throne."

The king of Shu's greasy face showed greed, and he looked at the queen mother earnestly, and said, "As for the prince...he is a sick child, and he still has the 'good medicine' given to us by his good aunt." It didn't work for him. Originally, as long as we found a chance and gave him the 'good medicine', turning him into a waste that can't even be a real man, we would be able to abolish him. However, the grandson is Unexpectedly, before we start now, the crown prince is so confused that he really fell into the trap, mistakenly thinking that his grandson and Yuan Wang are united to deal with the emperor's uncle, and now he is rushing to Luoyang City privately. This is a great deal As long as you send it to Uncle Huang, according to Uncle Huang's precautions against his son, with such a thing, Uncle Huang will definitely not tolerate the prince!"

Shu Wangyue said, the light in his eyes became more and more revealing, and he said with some excitement: "At that time, the three sons under the emperor's uncle's knees will not be able to bear it. Among the grandchildren of the emperor's uncle, he only made the deposed prince's first child." The eldest son will be the vassal king, and none of the other grandsons can be enshrined. And the power of Yuan Wang is weak, so there is nothing to worry about. At that time, the grandson will have the emperor's grandmother, will he, will he have a chance, and he will aspire to that position?"

After the king of Shu finished speaking, he looked at the queen mother with burning eyes.

Those small eyes contained the ambition and madness of the King of Shu.

However, although the king of Shu was fat and big-eared and had a big belly, his mind was not that simple.

Although these words he said were rebellious words, if you think about it carefully, they might not make sense.

The Empress Dowager knelt down on the ground, holding the teacup in her hand, touched her lips slightly, and then put down the teacup in her hand.

The king of Shu knelt and sat opposite the queen mother, and hurriedly wanted to add tea for the queen mother, but seeing that the tea in the cup had hardly moved, he was stunned, and then put the teapot down again.

The queen mother then said leisurely, "Where did you get this news? Is the news accurate?" Seeing that the king of Shu was about to answer immediately, she waved her hand and said, "When the queen just passed away last time, you Then I heard the news from the outside and told the Ai family to listen to you, insisting that the Ai family listen to you and give those things to the prince. The prince seized this matter and dragged Aijia and you into trouble."

The king of Shu looked a little ugly, and was about to plead guilty, when the queen mother continued.

"The Ai family is old, with no children or daughters, no grandchildren and no concern, so he will die when he dies. But grandson, if you are a little careless, then the ones who will die will be the whole family of Shu Palace, with hundreds of people in it! The Ai family is getting old. In the future, whether you, the grandson of the concubine of the Ai family, takes that position, or the crown prince who has nothing to do with the Ai family takes that position, for the Ai family, it will just be a different name, and the Ai family will remain the same. It's the Ai family, lonely and lonely, just guarding the Changle Palace. To help you, or not to help you, what's the difference to the Ai family?"

The face of the King of Shu changed drastically, he lay down on the ground, and cried bitterly: "Grandmother, you have always been wise and decisive, how can you really not see the difference? If your grandson sits in that position, in this harem, the emperor Grandmother's world, not only that, the grandson is willing to build another courtyard for the emperor's grandmother, and hand over the grandson's eldest son and eldest daughter to you to raise. Moreover, in the other courtyard, whoever the emperor grandmother likes to serve will be free. Who should serve her. In the whole world, there are only a few young talents who want to respect the emperor's grandmother... In any case, if the grandson sits in that position, then the most honorable woman in the world must be It's the imperial grandmother!"

The queen mother smiled slightly and said, "Oh? What about your mother and princess?"

The King of Shu was sweating on his forehead, and he gritted his teeth and said, "They are all your juniors, so they will listen to whatever you say. How dare you have a quarrel with you?"

The smile on the Empress Dowager's face was now a bit real, and she helped the King of Shu up, and began to seriously ask the prince about it.

The king of Shu didn't dare to hide anymore, and told the queen mother all the news he knew.

After hearing this, the queen mother frowned and said, "So it was the fourth princess who made the move again. No wonder."

The elder brother of the fourth princess' son-in-law is Ningyanghou, and now Ningyanghou is walking with the prince, knowing the prince's movements, it is indeed normal.

As far as the fourth princess is concerned, her nephew is Prince Yuan, and she wants to overtake the prince and want the prince to take the throne, so it is not surprising that she would find a way to attack the prince.

"Among them, the imperial concubine didn't take action?" The queen mother was a little puzzled, and said, "Although she lost the child in her belly, it may not be a bad thing. It was rumored that the child in her belly was the reincarnation of some fairy, and it was passed down like that. If her child is not lost at this time, then in the future, once she gives birth, the emperor will dare to let the mother and child go to the west together. If the child is lost, she will survive by herself."

The King of Shu didn't care about Emperor Chengguang's concubines in the harem. He thought for a while before saying, "The imperial concubine is just a concubine in the harem. How capable can she be? In the past, the prince relied on her and trusted her. There is nothing to do there, but now that the prince is getting more and more alienated from her, what can she do? Isn't it just a little tricky?"

The Queen Mother remained silent, and asked the King of Shu a lot of things for a while, before she said: "Since this matter has already started, you are the emperor's nephew, not his son and grandson, so naturally you cannot be the first bird. However, you should push it up appropriately. Let’s pretend that you and King Yuan are really going to do something, and it’s okay to misunderstand the prince’s companions who stayed in Luoyang City. It’s just that the prince is treacherous, and the emperor is even more cunning and stingy. If you want to do it, you should take this Things should be done more cautiously, at least, the emperor should not be caught."

The king of Shu was taught, but he said again after hearing the words: "But if my grandson doesn't do it, who else can do it? The king of Yuan has the fourth princess Yin Yin planning for him, and he would not want to do it. He neither In his early years, who should the grandson turn to to do this?"

The queen mother smiled slightly, beckoned the king of Shu, and whispered something in his ear, the mung bean-sized eyes of the king of Shu lit up immediately.

That's right, if he can win in the end, then the person who achieves that position is himself.

However, if King Yuan wins, there is still a useless prince on his head, will the Fourth Princess really let King Yuan take that position?You know, it is well known that the Fourth Princess and the abandoned Crown Princess are at odds.

The king of Shu was overjoyed, bid farewell to the queen mother, and left soon.

Two days later, Emperor Chengguang had just come out of the gymnasium. He was very happy because he had obtained the panacea newly refined by Taoist Chang, when he saw King Yuan shivering and hesitantly coming to see him.

People say that the youngest son and grandson are the lifeblood of the old lady.

The words may be different in the royal family, but the fundamentals are the same.

Emperor Chengguang still cared a little about Yuan Wang, the eldest grandson.So when he saw King Yuan coming, he squinted his eyes, and beckoned for King Yuan to come and talk.

When King Yuan was in the distance, he was full of hesitation and hesitation, but when he walked in front of Emperor Chengguang, those hesitation and hesitation quickly disappeared, and he immediately fell to the ground, kneeling and crying.

Emperor Chengguang's complexion changed immediately.

However, he is still like the grandfather of ordinary people, benevolent and authentic: "My grandson, why are you crying like this today? But who doesn't have eyes and bullied my grandson? You can tell me, and I will understand Let that person pay the price, and let him know that the consequences of deceiving the public and insulting the prince and grandson are definitely not something he can bear!"

At the end of the few words, he became more and more imperial.

Yuan Wang shuddered in his heart, and immediately said: "Grandfather, no one bullied grandson, it's just, just..." He choked up, as if he couldn't speak.

Emperor Chengguang's face became more and more indifferent, and he ordered in a cold voice: "Say!"

King Yuan really shuddered this time, thinking of the ruthlessness of this imperial grandfather in his heart, the original trace of luck in his heart was gone, and he immediately told Emperor Chengguang about the things he found out by "doing everything possible". listen.

At the end, he said: "Grandfather, don't be angry, grandson thought, Uncle Seventh really misunderstood something, thinking that grandfather is seriously ill and in critical condition, and he urgently needs to rush back to Luoyang City to take care of grandfather on his behalf. Political affairs, that's why they didn't even say hello, but rushed over to Luoyang City in private."

King Yuan didn't say what he said, but when he opened his mouth, the aura around Emperor Chengguang became more and more gloomy.

Yuan Wang didn't seem to notice it, and he still tried to persuade: "The Seventh Emperor is the current crown prince and the heir of a country. He is worried that the emperor's grandfather will not be able to handle state affairs as he was when he was young. It is human nature to make such a decision. Although my grandson disagrees with Uncle Seventh Emperor's decision, grandson always thinks that Uncle Seventh Emperor is the grandfather's favorite son, and Uncle Seventh Emperor must be a filial person. He must have thought carefully about this move. It's just that the grandson is still worried that you don't know about this matter, the emperor's grandfather, and that the Seventh Emperor's uncle's move will surprise the emperor's grandfather too much, so he came here to report this I want to tell you about this matter, thinking that it will make you happy a few days in advance, and it is good to know that Uncle Qihuang will return early. This is why I came here, waiting to tell you about this matter, so that you will not feel uneasy , suspicious of Seventh Emperor Uncle."

Of course, these words of King Yuan did not come from the heart.He said this, but he wanted to further provoke Emperor Chengguang's suspicion of Xiao Wuchen.

The method is simple and easy to see through, but it works.Especially for Emperor Chengguang, who was already suspicious, this trick really worked.

After all, this plan was originally caused by Emperor Chengguang intentionally or unintentionally.He originally thought that Xiao Wuchen was the crown prince he valued the most, and also the one he cherished the most among his sons and daughters.The abolition of the crown prince and those sons and daughters might cause him a lot of headaches, but Xiao Wuchen is filial and kind, and he will definitely not let him down.

Therefore, even if he casually and intentionally exposed the symptoms of his illness, and let those people who are interested take advantage of this matter, Emperor Chengguang actually believed in Xiao Wuchen in his heart, and believed that Xiao Wuchen even faced these things. "Irrefutable evidence and threats", he will continue to be a kind and filial prince, and he will follow what he gives him.If he didn't give it, Xiao Wuchen naturally shouldn't take it either.

It is precisely because of this that when Emperor Chengguang heard what King Yuan said that Xiao Wuchen took the risk of using a substitute to replace him and continued to return with the army, while he himself came to Luoyang City early in private, Chengguang Apart from being disappointed, Emperor Guang was also quite surprised.

Seeing this, King Yuan plucked up his courage, and continued, "It's just that although my grandson feels that Uncle Seventh Emperor's move has no other ideas, let alone threaten the throne of the emperor's grandfather. However, mistakes are mistakes. On that day, the emperor's father came outside the city, in front of my Daxing Dynasty army, to see if the person in the carriage was the Seventh Emperor Uncle."

Emperor Chengguang's tone was calm: "If so, what should we do? If not, what should we do?"

King Yuan is from the Xiao family, and he still has some understanding of Emperor Chengguang.Hearing the words of Emperor Chengguang, he knew in his heart that Emperor Chengguang was already furious. He was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "If the person who came with the army is really the Seventh Emperor Uncle, then the emperor's grandfather can reward you as much as possible." Uncle Qihuang, you can give Uncle Qihuang the military achievements of Uncle Qihuang this time; if that person is not Uncle Qihuang..." King Yuan touched his forehead to the ground and bowed deeply, "Grandson believes that Grandfather will definitely Give an explanation to Daxing, give an explanation to Daxing's thousands of troops, and give an explanation to the many truly filial princes and grandchildren!"

Yuan Wang's words are quite reasonable and well-founded.

However, after hearing this, Emperor Chengguang only snorted lightly, without saying a word, and walked away from the side of King Yuan.

King Yuan waited until Emperor Chengguang had gone far before he finally got up on his knees, feeling a little panicked, not knowing what Emperor Chengguang was thinking.

However, thinking that since Xiao Wuchen had already rushed to Luoyang City in private, there would naturally be no figure of Xiao Wuchen among the thousands of troops. If someone went to "greet" the prince, then even if he didn't get any benefits, he would definitely not get any good if he wanted to come to the prince.

But for him, in fact, the crown prince is not good, but he is good.

King Yuan thought about it, then forced himself to stand up and leave.

On the way from the frontier to Luoyang City, Xiao Wuchen stayed in Xiao Junye's carriage every day.

There was no other reason. Naturally, someone in Luoyang City set up this trick. If he refused to be recruited, wouldn't it be that he failed those people's hard work?Besides, knowing his father is Mo Ruozi, he knows in his heart that with his father's temperament, if he misunderstands him again and finds out the truth, he will definitely feel guilty for him. At least for a period of time, his father will not embarrass him temporarily him.

What's more, in this plan, maybe it wasn't designed by the father deliberately letting his cousins ​​and nephews and the like.

Xiao Wuchen sighed in his heart, couldn't help stretching out his hand again, and turned out the wooden box that Xiao Junye had hidden.

Inside the wooden box are his portraits or letters, each of which is well preserved.

He could even see that Xiao Junye was touching these portraits and letters frequently.

It's like touching him.

Xiao Wuchen blushed slightly, sighed, and was about to put the letter and portrait inside the wooden box back again.

Then he felt his hair stand on end!

Xiao Wuchen suddenly looked at the door on the carriage. It turned out that there was a small window the size of a palm above the door, which was being pushed open.

And above the small window, there was a pair of dark eyes staring at him with unknown meaning!

Xiao Wuchen: "..."

He's almost going to call him an assassin, okay?

The owner of those eyes was extremely happy in his heart.

In the past, he only treated him as Wuchen and ignored him, because he regarded him as an elder in his heart, and he didn't want to marry him in his heart, and he didn't even have the slightest thought about him.

However, the "peeping" just now made Xiao Junye discover that his Wuchen would blush when touching those letters and portraits!

Before Xiao Junye fell in love with Xiao Wuchen, he had never been in love with anyone, so he didn't know the word "love", once he was in love, would he have other appearances other than being crazy or even crazy like him.

But when he saw Xiao Wuchen's appearance today, he suddenly felt blessed - he thought, maybe his Wuchen is still different from his.Once he is emotional, he cannot be moved unless the land falls apart.He can't help but look at Xiao Wuchen, love Xiao Wuchen, and tell Xiao Wuchen all his loves.Even if Xiao Wuchen doesn't like it, he may even reject it.

Besides, Xiao Junye's liking cannot tolerate any flaws.

He will treat Xiao Wuchen wholeheartedly, and naturally hopes that Xiao Wuchen will love him wholeheartedly.

If Xiao Wuchen is willing to accept him, Xiao Junye can go through fire and water for Xiao Wuchen, and he will do whatever he wants.Xiao Wuchen wanted the throne, he wanted to centralize the imperial power of Daxing, and he wanted to be famous in history... He was willing to spend his whole life for this, just to let Xiao Wuchen fulfill his wish.

Xiao Junye thought, he really loved Xiao Wuchen so much.

However, if Xiao Wuchen rejected him...he could no longer be with Xiao Wuchen any longer.

Not unwilling, but unable.

He didn't know what absurd things he would do once Xiao Wuchen rejected him and kept him by his side.

Perhaps it is not impossible to seek to usurp the throne.

Therefore, if Xiao Wuchen refused him, he had to leave, and he had no choice but to leave.

However, thinking of Xiao Wuchen's slightly blushing appearance just now, maybe he doesn't need to plan to leave anymore.

Xiao Junye lowered his head and thought about it, finally opened the door of the carriage, and walked to Xiao Wuchen's side with the things in his hand.

Then his eyes fell on the wooden box that Xiao Wuchen was still holding.

Xiao Wuchen: "..." He thought hard for a while, and then said: "This should be mine, let me take a look, the emperor shouldn't mind, right?"

Inside the wooden box, there are clearly his portraits and his letters, how can they not be his things?

What's more, the emperor's uncle has always doted on him, as long as he shows a little liking, the emperor's uncle will do everything possible to achieve what he wants or things for him.

Thinking about it this time, it must be the same.

However, after Xiao Junye listened, he only looked at Xiao Wuchen faintly, and said after a long while: "Your? No, Chen'er, these are all treasures of the emperor's uncle." Snatched the wooden box from Xiao Wuchen's hand.

Really grab.

Xiao Wuchen: "..."

"To you, these things are just ordinary portraits and letters. But to me, they are treasures."

Xiao Junye snatched the wooden box silently, carefully counted the number of letters and portraits inside, and found that none of them were missing, then looked at Xiao Wuchen seriously, and said, "These treasures, if the emperor is missing One of them will definitely be desperately fought with people."

Xiao Wuchen: "...Does that include me too?"

After he said this, he wanted to bite off his tongue.

What I said was really quite... ambiguous.

Xiao Junye's dark eyes suddenly lit up, and then he said in a hoarse voice: "If Chen'er, then, Chen'er only needs to take one piece and return a hundred pieces to me, or simply use Chen'er to pay for it—that's the case." , Uncle Huang's things are all Chen'er's things. Whatever Chen'er wants, Uncle Huang will give everything to get those things for Chen'er. Of course, even if Chen'er wants the things in this wooden box... The emperor will also consider it carefully."

Xiao Wuchen: "..." I always felt something strange.

But he didn't wonder for too long, and saw what Xiao Junye brought.

It was a plate of dim sum, and letters under the dim sum.

Xiao Wuchen read all the letters, frowned slightly, and then relaxed.

That's right, Royal Father has always been extremely suspicious.In his previous life, he was weak and couldn't even handle political affairs normally. Of course, his father was very relieved of him, and he was willing to pour all his father's love on him.But in this life, when he is in good health and can be the crown prince of a country, his father and emperor are worried about him again.

Feeling disappointed, Xiao Wuchen folded the letter after reading the letter from Luoyang City, and put it back.

However, before he felt any more sad, his right hand was suddenly grabbed by someone.

Xiao Wuchen was startled, seeing that Xiao Junye stretched out a hand to hold his hand, he struggled for a while, but he didn't break free, so he let him go, but he didn't raise his head.

But Xiao Junye forbade him not to raise his head.

With the other hand, he directly clamped Xiao Wuchen's chin, forcing Xiao Wuchen to look up at him.

"Chen'er, what the emperor uncle told you that day, have you already thought about it? Do you want the emperor uncle to stay with you for a while, and then I don't want to see you again in this life, or... the emperor uncle will accompany you for the rest of your life, from now on you and me In the middle of the body, only each other?"

"Chen'er, the emperor's uncle loves you, and I will never let you down in this life. I only hope for Chen'er, and I will never let me down."
