Chapter 1002: Confrontation
Luoyang, Prince's Mansion.
The prince looked at the aunt in front of him, who was younger than him, and his heart couldn't stop being disappointed.
Wei Siya sat there a little cramped, her hands resting restlessly on her laps.
The clothes on the body, the fabric is new, and it looks like it has just been put on. The shoulders were a little bigger, and it was obvious that they didn't fit. I don't know whose new clothes it is, so I temporarily changed it for her to wear.
Although a set of red gold and emerald heads is rich, it makes her a little old-fashioned, and her temperament can't support this set of heads. It feels like a child stealing an adult's clothes, which is very incongruous.
It can be seen that in order for her to see the prince this time, her mother-in-law made every effort to dress her up. But she used too much force, which did not match her temperament.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a princess of a country.
The prince couldn't help but think of the peerless Princess Zhaoyang. is also a princess, this Wei Siya is really too far behind.
Come to see him, this Wei Siya is dressed like this. You can imagine what the situation is at her mother-in-law's house. However, the crown prince has no impression and feelings for her, and at this juncture, he has no intention of maintaining the dignity of the royal family and standing up for her.
He looked her up and down in silence, lacking even the appetite to speak.
Wei Siya sat there after seeing the salute, and the prince did not speak, which made her more and more nervous. The hands were unconsciously twisted together, and the head drooped lower and lower.
She's just a princess with a very low sense of existence. Concubine Zheng lived like a transparent person in the harem, how could she live well? This was the first time she was so close to the crown prince of the current dynasty, and she couldn't help but be nervous.
"Aunt Siya," after a while, the prince reluctantly shouted, "Your mother misses you in the palace, and I will send you to the palace." ”
Finally waited for the prince to speak, Wei Siya hurriedly responded.
There was no surprise on her face except for doubt. She was not raised under the knees of Concubine Zheng, and the relationship between mother and daughter was really indifferent.
Now that the capital is under siege, everyone in the city is in danger, and so is her in-law's family. Hearing the prince's call, the family was as nervous as if they were facing a great enemy.
I thought there was something big, but it turned out that my mother just wanted to see her?
The prince didn't want to explain anymore, so he waved his hand and let Wei Siya, who was full of questions, take him down.
Luoyang City was trapped, and big and small things fell on him. The matter of Concubine Zheng's mother and daughter is like a pebble thrown on the water, leaving nothing but a ripple.
Fang Xiaoyu hurriedly came in and said, "Your Highness, please go to the city to take a look." ”
"What's the matter?"
The crown prince glanced at the flat crown on his head, which was a little crooked, this was the first time he had seen Fang Xiaoyu so flustered.
"Your Highness, you'll know when you go. Fang Xiaoyu said.
Hearing his urgency, the prince immediately stopped asking more, and immediately asked people to prepare horses, and the two rode towards the city.
Along the way, pedestrians were worried, and even Dingdingmen Street was no longer prosperous.
Occasionally, members of the envoys trapped in Beijing could be seen, and they were more feared than ordinary people. It was supposed to pay tribute, but it happened to happen. No one knows what the attitude of the new emperor will be after the change of dynasty.
Under the auspices of the Ministry of Households, the price of rice in Beijing did not skyrocket. The people still have food to eat, and the people's hearts are quite stable for the time being.
On the city wall, I saw a fierce general below riding a sweaty and bloody horse, calling for battle.
When he saw the crown prince appear, he smiled and said, "Ming Sheng, don't you call me Second Emperor Uncle?"
The prince's face changed, this person was the king of Ruyang who had not been seen for many years. He was young when he was confined, but he knew it. Ten years have passed, and King Ruyang has not seen much change except for his hair being a little gray.
The king of Ruyang appeared at this time, what was his intention?
He was silent, and the king of Ruyang became more and more rebellious, "Your father's throne is not coming in the right way, and I am the one who should be the emperor! For the sake of blood and family, I will ensure that you will be a rich and noble prince. ”
As soon as these words came out, the soldiers behind him raised their guns and cheered: "Surrender! Surrender!"
He deceived the door, and the prince naturally couldn't be silent any longer. Otherwise, if he is allowed to make such nonsense, it will shake the morale of the army.
"Second Emperor Uncle, have you forgotten the punishment that your grandfather punished you? My father only punished you to guard the Tailing Tomb in brotherhood. Ten years later, you forged your will and plotted a rebellion. Are you worthy of the people of this world?"
When the king of Ruyang attacked Emperor Qinglong's improper throne, the crown prince characterized his move as a rebellion and brought out the people to suppress him.
He snorted coldly, he was punished by the first emperor back then, and everyone knew it. This time, it fell behind in words. However, his goal has been achieved, which is to talk to the prince.
Next, that's what he wants to say.
"Ming Sheng, your father has passed away, right?The emperor is dead, why is it a secret?" he sneered and dropped a bombshell.
The emperor has died?!
Hearing this, all the soldiers on the city wall changed color. Gao Mang's army was strictly disciplined, and they didn't dare to talk in a low voice, but there were monstrous waves in their hearts.
Emperor Qinglong was deeply loved by the people, and this was not just lip service. In the hearts of all, he existed like a god. Both majestic and kind, as long as he was there, everyone had a pillar in their hearts.
The prince shouted in his heart that it was not good, and few people in the palace knew about this matter, how could King Ruyang know?
But now is not the time to pursue it.
In any case, he must not let this matter be confirmed.
He laughed three times, and pointed to the king of Ruyang under the head of the city and laughed.
"Uncle Huang, when I call you honorific, do you really think that you are Uncle Huang?" his voice suddenly became sharp, and he said: "Plotting to usurp the throne, and confusing the people!"
"My father is in the palace with a good look. Even if you hate your father, you don't have to curse him like this. ”
The prince's reaction greatly relieved the soldiers at the head of the city. If Emperor Qinglong had really died, how could the prince still laugh?
Before the king of Ruyang could say more, the prince took the bow and arrow of the soldier next to him. With the sound of a bowstring on the ground, the feather arrow flew to a place in front of the king of Ruyang and plunged deep into the soil.
It's not that the crown prince's archery skills are not good, the location of the king of Ruyang has been calculated, and it is a place where the bow and crossbow can't reach.
He had endured in Tailing for ten years, how could he put himself in danger at this moment?
The crown prince shouted: "Insult my father's name, I swear to kill you!"
The north wind howled and blew the prince's robe with a hunting sound. His momentum was like a rainbow, exuding a fierce killing intent.
The soldiers at the head of the city were influenced by him, and their morale was greatly increased, and their spears were raised, and a terrible sound of intimidation sounded from their mouths.
Seeing that the goal had been achieved, the prince no longer gave King Ruyang a chance to speak, and said lightly: "Uncle Huang, I will send an old man to see you tomorrow." ”
