272 The Yellow Finch (2)
The second prince sneered: "Mother, of course this is true, not a dream." If you don't believe me, you can ask all the doctors in the hospital to take your son's pulse. Concubine Tian's big stone hanging in the air finally landed, and she shook her head with a slight smile: "That's not necessary, as long as Bo'er is in good health, the concubine can rest assured." Lin Zi is still waiting outside to see you, so the palace will leave first, and come back to see you. ”
The second prince watched the back of Concubine Tian leaving, Mo Linzi quickly walked in and was about to say hello to the second prince, but was stopped by the second prince: "Lin Zi, between you and me, when do you need to be polite, if it weren't for you this time, I'm afraid we wouldn't have done it so quickly, everything has to be thanks to you!" he got up and patted Mo Linzi's shoulder to express his gratitude. Of course, the second prince was not poisoned, this is just a scam, and the person lying in the palace has always been a stand-in for the second prince.
Although the saint saw through the second prince's plan, he did not debunk it, but it is conceivable that he also remembered the relationship between father and son. The second prince had a calm face: "Lin Zi, you must have heard the words of King Dongyang, my father once gave the Marquis of Pingyang a holy decree to pass on the throne, so why didn't he take it out just now?" In the previous thrilling scene, there must be no need for King Dongyang to lie.
Faced with his question, Mo Linzi just lightly said: "Cousin, Weichen thinks that Pingyang Hou is a smart person, and the saint said it very clearly. If he does not admit that Pingyang Hou is his own flesh and blood, then it is enough to overturn the holy decree given to him by the Holy Lord before. If he insisted on taking it out, it would be useless. The last words of the saint before his death are the most reliable, so cousin, Weichen feels that you don't need to worry much about this holy decree, and the Marquis of Pingyang will definitely handle this holy decree well. ”
If Mo Linzi guessed correctly, the Marquis of Pingyang would burn this holy decree immediately after returning home. It would definitely be a scourge for him to keep it, and it would make the second prince always have a thorn in his heart. The second prince patted Mo Linzi's shoulder with praise: "Lin Zi, I knew that you could share my worries, I have worked hard for you during this time." I will keep your heartfelt heart for me. By the way, the matter between you and Yan Yunnuan, do you want me to make a decree to give marriage?"
Mo Linzi likes Yan Yunnuan, but he can't escape the eyes of the second prince, of course, the second prince also has selfish intentions. After he ascends the throne, he must go to Yan Yunzhu, if Yan Yunnuan marries Mo Linzi, then Mo Linzi is Yan Yunzhu's tough backstage. For Yan Yunzhu, who is about to enter the palace, it is a great thing. Mo Linzi shook his head: "Wechen thanks my cousin for his kindness, but Wechen doesn't want to make trouble in a hundred cities."
In addition, the saint gave her a marriage before, and then gave up, but forget it, Weichen has his own way to let her marry Weichen. "As long as Mo Linzi insists on marrying Yan Yunnuan, that's fine. There is no need for him to help, and the second prince does not have to be reluctant, "Okay, Lin Zi, then I will wait for your good news in the palace, go back and rest early!" Mo Linzi worked hard for the second prince, and now that everything is settled, he should also go back to rest. After he ascends the throne, I'm afraid he will still need Mo Linzi to work.
Mo Linzi left respectfully, and the second prince was also exhausted these days, and he needed to close his eyes and rest. Yan Yunnuan stayed on the farm to accompany Yan Yunju, and until the evening, Yan Yunchun was a little anxious. What's going on with Xiao Jiu, she hasn't returned to the house until now, she has heard about the situation in the palace, and there is a lot of rumors outside, the saint died, and the second prince succeeded to the throne.
Yan Yunnuan is really not worry-free, Yan Yunchun waited and waited for his eyelids to droop, and he really didn't have the energy to wait. The grandmothers and maids around her persuaded her to rest early, but in desperation, Yan Yunchun had no choice but to say: "Okay, I'll rest early, you go to the hall and wait, and tell me as soon as there is news about the girl." She planned to squint for a while, and when Yan Yunnuan came back, she would have the energy to teach her a good lesson.
It's just that I didn't expect that this night, Yan Yunnuan didn't return home, which couldn't help but make Yan Yunchun anxious. Pingyang Hou returned to the house in despair and quickly came to the study. took out the Inheritance Decree that the Saint in the Dark Grid had sent to him before, there was no need to keep it at all. King Dongyang shook him out, presumably the second prince, that is, the new emperor, would definitely mind.
It's just a pity that he passed by the throne, so what about Yan Yunnuan! Mo Linzi is a good brother of the second prince and has been supporting him. Could it be that the second prince will give them a decree to give them marriage, no! The Marquis of Pingyang can give up the throne, but he must not give Yan Yunnuan to Mo Linzi, who is his wife who has not passed through the door. Pingyang Hou sat in the study and silently burned the holy decree. calmed down and went to see Meng, Meng was still in the Buddha Hall, and Mama whispered: "Master Hou, you wait, the slave maid will go in and report it." ”
"No need, Ben Hou just went in. If the mother is to blame, she will bear it, and it has nothing to do with the grandmother. "Pingyang Hou's words are at this point, what else can Mama say, she can only get out of the way and let him in. When Pingyang Hou came to Meng's house, he felt very lonely and lifeless. In the Buddhist hall, I saw Meng sitting on the ground, his hands folded, and his mouth kept muttering something.
It's a pity that he couldn't hear clearly, presumably Meng Shi had something to whisper to Bai Gongbo! For him, Bai Gongbo almost didn't exist in his memory, and some were just the occasional muttering of Meng and his grandmothers in his ear. Pingyang Hou did not disturb Meng, but sat down gently, and quietly accompanied Meng. After a long time, Meng Shi turned around and noticed the presence of Pingyang Hou in the house, and Pingyang Hou quickly walked over and helped her up.
"Why are you here?" Meng Shi looked at his face and did not look good, Pingyang Hou simply told her everything that happened in the palace, and after listening to it, Meng Shi couldn't stop laughing. It's great that the saint has finally gone! She can go to accompany Bai Gongbo after the Marquis of Pingyang marries a wife and has children, so good!" "Mother, are you very happy?"
Pingyang Hou looked at Meng Shi puzzled, "Hmph, of course I'm happy, a person like him shouldn't have lived in the world for a long time." Why, you are loyal to him, but don't forget, he didn't keep his promise to you. The old body does not want you to sit on the throne and become the king of a country on high above. It's too cold and too lonely in high places. It's better to be your Pingyang Marquis, listen to the old man's advice, and when the new emperor ascends the throne, we will immediately set off to return to the border!"
Pingyang Hou is the only son of the Meng family, so he naturally has to think about him. "No, mother, my son can't go back just yet. If the mother is in a hurry, the son can send someone to escort the mother back first. Pingyang Hou replied quickly, Meng Shi sneered: "Don't think that the old body doesn't know your thoughts, you are still thinking about Yan Yunnuan's troubled water, the old body will never allow her to marry into the Pingyang Hou Mansion, you already know, why do you continue to disobey the old body, do you want to be angry with the old body, you are willing!"
Meng Shi coughed vigorously, and Pingyang Hou stepped forward and patted Meng Shi on the back, "Mother, the son didn't mean that, it's just that the son ......" was interrupted by Meng Shi before he finished speaking: "Okay, the old body doesn't want to hear anything, so it's decided." If you don't go back with the old body, then the old body will be regarded as if he never gave birth to your son!" she closed her eyes sadly, she still didn't believe that the grace of Pingyang Hou for many years of nurturing was not as good as a fox.
Fortunately, Ye Qing came back in the morning to tell Yan Yunchun the news that Yan Yunju had gone. Yan Yunchun didn't come to his senses for a while, and the teacup in his hand fell to the ground. Then he got up: "Ye Qing, what do you say, you say it again!" With a face full of anticipation, what Ye Qing said just now was to protect the flowers. Ye Qing lowered her head: "The little princess is gone, and the girl has been with her all night." "My heart exploded, I couldn't believe the news I heard, and the whole person was about to fall.
Fortunately, Ye Qing supported her in time and helped her sit down. "Ye Qing, you hurry up and take me to meet them, I want to see them. "You have to see it with your own eyes, or she won't believe it. Ye Qing was sent back by Yan Yunnuan to tell Yan Yunchun that she didn't want her to go to see Yan Yunju off for the last time. Yan Yunchun is pregnant, and the doctor said that there is less than a month to go, and she will give birth, and she can't go out of the house at will.
Ye Qing hurriedly shook his head: "No, the girl has already ordered, let you rest in the house." Tomorrow, the girl will be back. Yan Yunnuan was worried about her body, Yan Yunchun was very clear. However, she and Yan Yunju are sisters after all, and they always have to send her off for the last time. Yan Yunchun was very persistent, Ye Qing had no choice but to take her to see Yan Yunnuan in person. Mo Linzi was finally able to rest in the house for a few days, and he didn't have to go to the yamen to report. The palace is busy with the aftermath of the saint, and he doesn't have to worry about it.
Listening to the housekeeper, the eldest princess entered the palace early in the morning, and Mo Linzi could wait until tomorrow to enter the palace, and couldn't stop thinking about it in her heart and went to find Yan Yunnuan. It's a pity that the housekeeper said that Yan Yunnuan was not in the house and would not be able to return to the house until tomorrow, Mo Linzi wanted to ask Yan Yunnuan if there was something wrong, but in the end he didn't ask. First, it is a little abrupt, and second, the housekeeper in front of him may not be able to know. He's going to come back tomorrow!
At this time, the palace was wantonly handling the aftermath of the saint, and Concubine Tian was very sad on the surface, but she was very happy in her heart. Finally, when this day comes, she will soon become the queen mother. In the harem, of course, the second prince can detoxify, and the imperial physician is indispensable, so she specially rewarded him with ten boxes of gold, silver and jewelry. Yan Yunnuan held Yan Yunju's hand blankly, and it had been a night like this.
Yan Yunchun was helped out of the carriage by Ye Qing, carefully pushed open the door, and saw the scene in front of him. Yan Yunchun couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes anymore, "Xiao Jiu." Shouting softly, Yan Yunnuan immediately came back to his senses and stepped forward to support Yan Yunchun: "Eldest sister, why are you here, your body matters." Ye Qing, didn't I order the eldest sister to stay in the house. ”
Ye Qing lowered his head guiltily, and Yan Yunchun hurriedly played a round: "Xiao Jiu, don't blame Ye Qing, I want to come by myself." I don't worry about you, in this person to accompany the eighth sister, and I and the eighth sister are also sisters, you always have to let me send her off for the last time. Xiao Jiu, don't carry it alone, the eldest sister is here!" No one wants Yan Yunju to go like this, but God will make people, and they can only bear it. Yan Yunchun hugged Yan Yunnuan tightly, and the tears in the eyes of the sisters couldn't be stopped.
The two sisters discussed, and buried Yan Yunju on the farm, hoping that in the next life, she could be reincarnated into an ordinary family and live an ordinary life. The saint was soon buried in the imperial mausoleum and buried together with the queen. At present, the Eastern Zhou Kingdom is about to start preparing for the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor, that is, the second prince. Concubine Tian was having dinner in Cining Palace, the second prince suddenly came over, Concubine Tian put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand with a smile and said: "Don't be polite with your mother, hurry up and sit down, haven't you eaten yet?" Just accompanied the mother to eat together. ”
Very warmly entertained the second prince, "Thank you concubine, the ministers there are respectful and obedient." After the second prince sat down, he picked up the dishes and chopsticks on the table and began to eat. Concubine Tian's eyes were full of love, and there were not many opportunities for the second prince to accompany her to dine with her in the future. After all, the king of a country, the political affairs of the court are enough for him to be busy. Halfway through eating, I always felt that something was wrong. The second prince didn't say anything, and ate with his head down.
Concubine Tian deliberately probed: "Bo'er, do you have something to tell your mother?" waited for Concubine Tian to take the initiative to speak, and the second prince smiled curtly: "It's still the concubine who is smart, and the sons can't escape the eyes of the concubine." The son wanted to take Yan Yunzhu into the palace, and hoped that the mother concubine would be favorable. "I thought that Yan Yunzhu would be the side concubine of the third prince, which would make the second prince die. I didn't expect the second prince to still miss her, I really don't know what Yan Yunzhu is good about. Concubine Tian put down the chopsticks in her hand with a straight face.
Wiping the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, the second prince waited for her answer. "Bo'er, the concubine can promise you everything else, but this is absolutely impossible. Let's not say that Yan Yunzhu is the side concubine of the third prince, in terms of name, that is your brother-in-law. How can you block the mouths of the people in the capital? And you are the first to ascend to the great treasure, and before you sit firmly on the dragon chair, you want to take Yan Yunzhu into the palace, and the mother concubine will definitely not agree!"
Concubine Tian resolutely expressed her attitude, and the second prince guessed, "Mother, Erchen doesn't want to make her the queen, but let her enter the palace to serve by Erchen's side." "The second prince once promised Yan Yunzhu to marry her, but it was a pity that Yan Yunzhu betrayed their oath and became the side concubine of the third prince. It is not easy for him to take Yan Yunzhu into the palace, and she must not sit on the throne of the queen.
Otherwise, Concubine Tian in front of him would probably be angry, and he couldn't be so selfish. Concubine Tian had planned a lot for him before, and he kept it all in mind. "Okay, there's no need to talk about this matter anymore, this palace doesn't agree. There is also the disposal of Dongyang Wang and Dugu Ye and others, you have to be careful. Remember not to implicate too much, otherwise it will cause unnecessary turmoil in the DPRK and China. When you first ascend the throne, you will need the help of your ministers. I believe that you don't need to say more about this palace, you also know it. Okay, Hongu is tired, you can go back!"
Concubine Tian will naturally instruct the second prince to explain the matter, and the second prince will leave respectfully. Raising his head and looking at the clouds in the sky, he was about to ascend the throne as emperor and become the king of a country in the Eastern Zhou Kingdom. But not everything can be done at will. Mo Linzi has been sending someone to wait for Yan Yunnuan at the door, and as soon as there is news of her return home, he will immediately notify him. The saint has been buried in the imperial mausoleum, and the ministers have opened the palace with their families. Mo Linzi didn't go back to the house directly, and went to see Yan Yunnuan.
