Whose Evil in the Red Chamber
Chapter 72
Huan Chen's words rang in the emperor's ears like thunder, and the emperor's eyes couldn't help but focus on Jing Xuan's face. In the past, all his eyes were attracted by Jing Xuan's pair of phoenix eyes that resembled her mother. Looking at the rest of the facial features on Jing Xuan's face, a sense of familiarity could not help emerging in the emperor's heart.
The emperor's eyes couldn't help bursting out with an incredible look, and his shocked eyes moved from Jing Xuan's face to Huan Chen's body, and said intermittently: "He is...you...Hengyang actually..."
The emperor was inexplicably shocked, and his chaotic thoughts were even more chaotic at this moment, making him not know where to start. Looking at the appearance of the emperor, Huan Chen nodded, and said in a deep voice: "He is the son of Hengyang and the emperor's brother." Son, the only son, Father, have you seen clearly?"
The emperor took a few steps back, shot twice, leaning on the table with his hands, unable to recover for a while, Huan Chen's eyes flashed an incomprehensible look, and he only said: "The empress does not know about this matter. "
After hearing Huan Chen's words, the emperor raised his head and stared at the son. He suddenly realized that he seemed to have never understood this son.He has been in power for 40 years, and he has seen his sons fight for this dragon chair. Whenever he thinks back on the past these years, he feels that no one in the Tian family can refuse the temptation of this dragon chair.
At that time, Lao Jiu acted as if he was the only prince who followed his lead, and did not participate in the struggles of his other brothers at all, but in the end, it was this son who secretly forced the palace and forced him to abdicate.For so many years, he has always thought that this son is the one who has been hiding the most from beginning to end. Sometimes he even wonders if Lao Jiu was behind the scenes of the rebellion that broke out back then.
Since he abdicated, he felt that he saw this son more clearly. At that time, he thought that Lao Jiu was reckless, hot-tempered and embarrassing, but now it seems that he was wrong. Lao Jiu is kind and ruthless. For many years, under the banner of benevolence and filial piety, he has done a lot of murder without bloodshed. The court has unknowingly started to change blood, but it has not aroused enough vigilance.This son was so scheming that even the emperor was a little startled.
But when he brought the prince's only flesh and blood to him today, the emperor watched him defend Jingxuan in every possible way, and the sincerity of his feelings could not be faked at all, which immediately shook the emperor's determination for many years.
Having been an emperor for so many years, the emperor is not bad in terms of scheming, and he immediately understood the meaning of Huan Chen's words. Now the empress dowager loves Jingxuan because he is the son of Hengyang and "Lin Ruhai", and he is the son of the emperor. It was nothing more than inheriting the harmless nephew, but once she knew that Jing Xuan was actually the only flesh and blood of the former prince, then things would be completely different.
Although the prince was alive, there were constant voices to abolish the prince, but until the prince died in the sea of fire, he was still the prince's respect. If someone uses the identity of Emperor Jingxuan's grandson to make trouble, Huan Chen will really have a headache, not to mention...
The emperor stared at Huan Chen: "You are not afraid that I will expose the fact that you forced the palace to the world. At that time, you will be a rebellious son, your throne..." It goes without saying, who else is more orthodox than the current Jing Xuan Woolen cloth?
"What about you? Abandon me, raise a child, and you return to the imperial court justifiably, isn't it as you wish?" Huan Chen was unmoved, and asked back.
The father and son are fighting here, and Jing Xuan has been caught between the two of them. He has heard everything that should be heard and what should not be heard. It hurts, he has thought about thousands of hypotheses, but he really didn't think that his identity and age are really the most suitable to be a "puppet emperor". Where is this?
And the room fell into silence for a moment, the emperor suddenly showed a wry smile: "I am old, I am really old."
Huan Chen looked at such a father, something flashed in his eyes, and then suddenly disappeared. At this moment, the unwillingness that remained on the emperor seemed to disappear, and his eyes fell on Jing Xuan's face. softened.
"It's this hour, let's set the meal, you go and do your own work, let my good grandson accompany me to eat." Huan Chen was dismissed to leave, the emperor's attitude made the always alert Jing Xuan didn't know how to face it By the way, this old kid is getting too fast, right?
Huan Chen nodded, and then left the Dragon King Palace. The maids and eunuchs who were hiding far outside saw the door finally opened and the emperor came out calmly. Huan Chen was sent off respectfully.
When Huan Chen saw Hongxiao, he stopped in his tracks: "Father wants to stay in Jingxuan for dinner, so go and report to your mother and relax."
Only then did Hongxiao take the order, and before leaving without leaving any trace, she glanced at Huan Chen's personal guard who was guarding the door, and after Huan Chen left the Palace of Heavenly Kings, he nodded and called the guard over.
"Go and find out who leaked Jingxuan's news to the emperor."
The name of the guard was Yu Chen, and he was the son of Yu Hua who was almost sentenced to beheaded. If the crown prince hadn't secretly searched for evidence and tried his best to reject all opinions at the last moment, the Yu family might be in a messy grave by now. Loess.Even so, the official careers of the rest of the Yu family were ruined because of this. It was not until the present day that Yu Chen, who had passed the martial arts examination, was handpicked to be the imperial bodyguard. This is how the Yu family turned around today.
Yu Chen is grateful for Huan Chen's kindness, and he is one of Huan Chen's loyal confidantes. He even remembers the life-saving grace of His Highness the Crown Prince in his heart. Huan Chen knows his temperament, so he has no regard for Jing Xuan's identity. Keeping it from him, Yu Chen treats Jing Xuan as a benefactor. Originally, Huan Chen ordered him to do it with 120 points of heart. Today, this matter involves Jing Xuan again. He can't wait to put two hundred thoughts on it up.
Not to mention that Yu Chen started the investigation here, just that Jing Xuan stayed alone in the upper imperial room. The child who was kneeling on the ground just now is now sitting on the emperor's soft couch, and the emperor who had an unswerving face just now, now has a rare smile on his face.
This group of people almost thought that their eyes were broken, and everyone was in a hurry, but after all, they had been serving in the palace for a long time, and they soon came back to their senses. Bu Shan, and then everyone's ears were almost pricked up, listening to the conversation between Jing Xuan and the emperor.
Ever since he knew that Jing Xuan was the crown prince's son and his grandson, the emperor had been particularly pleasing to Jing Xuan's eyes. He could always find the shadow of the prince's childhood in Jing Xuan, so he was very kind to Jing Xuan. The emperor thought of the eunuch Zhou who deliberately leaked the news to him, and couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
This week's eunuch is the chief eunuch next to the emperor, and Xia Shouzhong, whose status is equal to that of Huan Chen, is the most proud head eunuch around the emperor. This week's eunuch has followed the emperor for more than forty years, and is one of the most trusted people of the emperor This time, the emperor learned that Jingxuan had arrived in the palace, which was also the news that the eunuchs inquired this week.
The emperor suppressed the anger in his heart for the time being, and had lunch with Jing Xuan calmly. The grandparents and grandchildren chatted a few more words and had tea. After everything was tidied up, the emperor's eyes fell on Eunuch Zhou body, snorted coldly.
The eunuch has been with the emperor for so long this week, and he knows the master's temper best. Just now when he saw the emperor and Jingxuan chatting and laughing, he knew in his heart that something was wrong, and he waited in fear. Now, seeing the emperor's His eyes immediately understood, and he fell to his knees on the ground with a "plop".
"Damn the little one."
"Where did you hear the news?" The emperor didn't get angry, but asked calmly.
This week the eunuch settled down, at this time he didn't dare to hide anything, and hurriedly said: "Yesterday, the younger one saw Aunt Xiuyun, who was at the imperial concubine's place, secretly sending messages to others, and the younger one went over to ask Only then did I know that there was a rumor from Gusu that the eldest son had come to the palace secretly. The Zhen family somehow found out about this rumor. Because the eldest son and the Zhen family were not on good terms, the Zhen family sent people to inquire about the news. My lord accompanied me, so I asked someone to pass the news to Lord Wang, and then Lord Wang sent someone to inquire about the news with Aunt Xiuyun, but happened to be bumped into by the younger one, and the younger one got the letter, so he came back to report."
This week, the eunuch articulated the cause and effect of the incident, and the anger in the emperor's heart calmed down a little. The imperial concubine was born in a side branch of the Wang family. It is not surprising that the Wang family sent someone to inquire about her. Then the Wang family and the Zhen family have old friends. He also knew, but he really didn't know that the Zhen family had a disagreement with Jing Xuan.
"Why, what did the Zhen family do to offend you? You are afraid that you will become like this. When you heard you came to the palace, you actually stretched your claws into the palace?" There is a lot of friendship, but it is a pity that since the serious old lady of the Zhen family passed away, this relationship has faded a lot. Now that he heard that the Zhen family and Jingxuan were at odds, he hadn't asked why. My heart turned away because of Jing Xuan.
Mrs. Zhou, who was still kneeling on the ground, listened, and felt a cold war in her heart, and her emphasis on Jing Xuan went up to a higher level.
Jing Xuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this. If he didn't give the Zhen family some eye drops at this time, he would really have missed a god-given opportunity. Bringing out the old things, the emperor's words are like setting up a ladder for him who is about to go to the room. It is too coincidental. If this opportunity is not used, when will it be?
"It's a long story, but I have to start with the Xing'anhou family in Gusu..."
As Jing Xuan said, he started talking about the incident in Yiran Building, until the Zhen family came forward to make peace, and the Xue family sent out the theater troupe, and then he told all the things that the second master of the Zhen family had done.
Because the emperor showed obvious partiality, Jing Xuan naturally let his own temper go, and he said this from the standpoint of Jing Xuan. The emperor didn't feel inappropriate when he heard it. A smile appeared on Jing Xuan's face for those few things that he didn't suffer from.
After Jing Xuan finished speaking, he glanced at Eunuch Zhou who was still kneeling on the ground, and added: "It's not Mr. Zhou's fault that I see this. He is also loyal, but he was just taken advantage of."
The emperor seemed to remember at this time that the eunuch was still kneeling on the ground this week, and stared at him: "This time, Jingxuan interceded for you, if there is another time you gossip about these words..."
"You don't dare anymore." Eunuch Zhou said hastily, but he didn't say thank you to the emperor and Jing Xuan again and again.
Jing Xuan's eyes rolled, there was a lot of noise at the Emperor's side today, I'm afraid I can't hide it from others, so I might as well take this opportunity to play tricks, didn't the Zhen family want to hear the news?Then give them the so-called news.As for this person, it would be interesting to pour a basin of cold water on them after the most satisfied, isn't it?
The emperor's eyes couldn't help bursting out with an incredible look, and his shocked eyes moved from Jing Xuan's face to Huan Chen's body, and said intermittently: "He is...you...Hengyang actually..."
The emperor was inexplicably shocked, and his chaotic thoughts were even more chaotic at this moment, making him not know where to start.
