The Queen Mother picked up the tea on the table and took a sip to give the eldest princess time to think. If she really was sensible, she should have told her. The eldest princess took a deep breath, "Since the Queen Mother wants to know, this palace will tell you." After so many years, it's strange and uncomfortable to hold it in my heart, and no one shares it with me. "The eldest princess really loved Ming Guogong at the beginning, so she married him.
It's just a pity that after marriage, Ming Guogong has been fighting outside, and rarely returns to the capital, even if he comes back, the couple are rarely together, and he trains soldiers in the barracks. After a long time, how can the eldest princess in the boudoir stand it, before the eldest princess is married, the king of Dongyang will be attentive to her in every way, just like this, the eldest princess was slowly fascinated by the king of Dongyang and became his woman.
has been secretly meeting each other, Ming Guogong naturally did not know, and after Ming Guogong passed away on the battlefield, the eldest princess and the king of Dongyang slowly became blatant. Mo Linyan was poisoned by the King of Dongyang because she found out that they had a private meeting, and the eldest princess couldn't help it even if she couldn't bear it. Of course, she didn't tell the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother, who is also a woman, understands the eldest princess, but does not support her in doing so. As a woman, you should abide by your duty and be a virtuous and virtuous woman.
"The mourning family doesn't want to say anything, there is a cup of poisonous wine here, you can cut it yourself!" The queen mother closed her eyes, and the poisonous wine on the table had already been prepared for the eldest princess. She has insulted the royal reputation, and the impact is not good, so before no one knows, close the matter. The eldest princess hasn't lived enough, of course she won't listen to the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, even if this palace is wrong, it won't be your turn to take care of it, please forgive me." If nothing else, the shrine will leave. ”
After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, the queen mother had already arranged everything, five or six grandmothers appeared at the door of the palace, stopped the eldest princess, and forcibly poured poisoned wine on her, "Don't blame the mourning family for being ruthless, it's your own sin." The eldest princess died in front of the queen mother like this, Zhou Mingrui knew very well the cause of the eldest princess's death, but she didn't say anything, the queen mother was defending the royal reputation. Mo Linzi's body was shocked, and the Queen Mother knew that he would definitely not accept it, and she might doubt what she said.
handed him the letter he had found in Zhou Mingbo's clothes, "Take a look!" Mo Linzi stretched out his hand to take it, and sure enough, as the Queen Mother said, the King of Dongyang had to eat poison for Zhou Mingbo before he was willing to confess to his accomplices. Mo Linzi didn't dare to dream that his accomplice was actually the eldest princess, his biological mother.
"The mourning family knows that you are difficult to accept for a while, but this is the truth, Boer's handwriting, others are not clear, you should know very well that you grew up together since childhood, and your brotherly relationship is deep. The Queen Mother glanced at the depressed Mo Linzi, and after calming down and feeling good, Mo Linzi knelt down on her knees, "Thank you to the Queen Mother, Weichen is grateful." "Get up, the mourning family doesn't need you to thank you, as long as you don't hold a grudge against the mourning family." ”
The Queen Mother sighed and helped Mo Linzi to get up, "Queen Mother, since my mother has done something wrong, she should be punished." Mo Linzi looked directly at the Queen Mother, Skynet was magnificent and not leaky, and everyone would eventually have to pay the price for the mistakes she made. Before leaving, the Queen Mother clasped his hand: "Lin Zi, you are a credible person left in the mourning family, such as the child in the concubine's womb has not yet been born, and you want to send some guards with strong martial arts to the mourning family to protect her safety." ”
With a hint of expectation in his eyes, Mo Linzi agreed without hesitation: "Queen Mother, this is a matter within the responsibility of Weichen, please rest assured that Weichen will go back and select guards with strong martial arts to send them to the palace to protect the safety of the Queen Mother and Concubine Runiang." "Sure enough, I didn't see the wrong person, Mo Linzi is a person with affection and righteousness, and he also has clear grievances. The Queen Mother likes to deal with such people, and seeing the back of Mo Linzi leaving, the Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Duguting.
Zhou Mingbo just died, and she must feel uncomfortable. "I've seen the Queen Mother. Duguting was resting on the bed, and when she saw the Queen Mother walking in, she hurriedly lifted the quilt and got up to say goodbye. The Queen Mother strode over and stopped her: "The imperial doctor said that you just had fetal gas, you should recuperate in bed, listen to the words of the mourning family, don't move, it is important to take care of your body." The Queen Mother gently stroked Duguting's lower abdomen, which was her only hope.
Duguting lowered her head and was silent, the hateful Yan Yunzhu, she actually teamed up with Zhou Mingrui to kill Zhou Mingbo, but fortunately, Yan Yunzhu was self-aware and died. Otherwise, she wouldn't let her go easily, and would definitely try her best to put her to death. As soon as Mo Linzi stepped out of the threshold of the Queen Mother's bedroom, the eunuchs beside Zhou Mingrui were waiting outside, leading him to the imperial study. Zhou Mingrui waved his hand at the eunuch: "Let's all go down!"
"What's the matter, the Queen Mother must have told you everything, you should understand that I don't want to force him to death. Zhou Mingrui tried to explain, Mo Linzi couldn't help but squeak, what could he say at this moment, knowing these things all of a sudden, it took time to calm down. "I don't want to force you, but you must know that the Marquis of Pingyang will lead 50,000 elite soldiers to the capital soon, and it is imminent, and I can't sit still. ”
As soon as Zhou Mingrui said this, Mo Linzi frowned: "Holy Lord, the Marquis of Pingyang once showed Weichen a letter, asking him to lead 50,000 elite soldiers back to Beijing, is it still fake?" Zhou Mingrui shook his head, Mo Linzi was so smart that he was deceived by the Marquis of Pingyang, but it is conceivable that the handwriting on the letter was very realistic, and even he was bluffed.
"Of course it's fake, no one wrote to him, according to the secret report I received, he wants you to go back to the capital, so he will make this decision. In addition, he rushed back to the capital with 50,000 elite soldiers, don't you know his intentions? He did have the edict of the former emperor in his hand, and the second emperor's brother went to pass the throne to me. He has the edict of the emperor in his hand, and he entered Beijing to compete with me for the throne, you still don't understand. At this time, there is no need for Zhou Mingrui to hide it from Mo Linzi and tell him everything. Mo Linzi raised his head: "Holy Lord, what do you want Weichen to do?"
"Of course, we must stop him, and we must not let him enter the capital, causing civil strife in the capital and disturbing the peace of the people. "What Zhou Mingrui said is high-sounding, isn't it for the sake of his own throne to stabilize and get rid of those who threaten him. "Mo Linzi, don't hesitate any longer, just listen to me. Once the Marquis of Pingyang became a saint, who do you think he would be the first person to deal with? It's not you, he and Yan Yunnuan had the gift of the emperor to marry at the beginning, and then Yan Yunnuan married you, and he has always been obsessed with it. I advise you that it is best to join forces with me and fight against the Marquis of Pingyang, otherwise you will regret it. ”
Zhou Mingrui didn't know Yan Yunnuan's identity yet, even if they stayed in the Northern Qi Kingdom, it would not be impossible. What else is there to be nostalgic for in the Eastern Zhou Kingdom, the eldest princess is gone, and the Ming Mansion no longer exists. The parents are here, the home is still there, the parents are dead, and there is only the way back in life. He wants to spend the rest of his life with Yan Yunnuan in a chic manner, ignoring these trivial matters in the court, scheming hard, in exchange for glory and wealth, how long can he last it. A companion is like a tiger, and if you become an ally today, you will become an enemy tomorrow.
"Holy Lord, can you allow Weichen to go back and think about it for a day?" Mo Linzi pleaded with his hands respectfully, Zhou Mingrui was a little impatient, the Queen Mother told him everything, he should understand that joining forces with him was the best way. Zhou Mingrui waved his hand: "Okay, I'll give you a day to think about it, I hope you won't let me down then." Mo Linzi left the palace, feeling much more comfortable.
It's very uncomfortable to stay in this suffocating palace. He also wanted to go back to handle the aftermath of the eldest princess, and the housekeeper wanted to send someone to deliver a letter to Yan Yunnuan, who was far away in the Northern Qi Kingdom, but was stopped by Mo Linzi. It was enough for him to come back, Mo Linwang's death was not important to the future, anyway, the relationship between their brothers was not deep, and Mo Linwang was very careful about him.
It's just a pity that Xie Shi, Mo Linzi came to Yan Yunchun's house, and the housekeeper hurriedly invited him in. Yan Yunchun was already out of confinement and was playing with Mo Yuhe in the yard, Mo Yuhe saw Mo Linzi, but some of them hid behind Yan Yunchun. "I've seen the eldest sister. Mo Linzi saluted, "Brother-in-law Jiu, you're back, what about Xiao Jiu, where is she?"
Yan Yunchun asked anxiously, and looked around for Yan Yunnuan's figure. Why didn't you come with Mo Linzi to see her, isn't she unwell? The two of them will not be separated, Mo Linzi shook his head: "Eldest sister, Nuan'er has not come back, and she is still in the Northern Qi Kingdom." Yan Yunchun stared at Mo Linzi in front of him in disbelief, "What are you talking about, Xiao Jiu is still in the Northern Qi Kingdom, why don't you bring her back, she just came all the way to find you? No, did you two meet in the Northern Qi Kingdom?"
Mo Linzi simply said that they met in the Northern Qi Kingdom, and did not mention anything about Yan Yunnuan's identity. Telling Yan Yunchun will only increase her troubles, and some things are better not known. Yan Yunchun said with some unease: "Then you must not be careless, when the affairs of the capital are dealt with, go and bring Xiao Jiu back, I haven't seen her for a long time." ”
After speaking, he seemed to realize something, squatted down, touched Mo Yuhe's little face affectionately, and asked her to say hello to Mo Linzi. She lost her parents, he understood the sadness very well, Mo Linzi was her second uncle, walked over to comfort her, and then turned to leave. Mo Yuhe had never seen Mo Linzi who spoke so softly, and before he could calm down, he was led into the house by Yan Yunchun to eat pastries.
The days spent here have never been thought of before in the Ming Kingdom Mansion. It's a pity that her mother is not by her side to accompany her, but there is Yan Yunchun, she loves her like her mother, and she will repay her in the future. Yan Yunnuan didn't find Mo Linyan and Qingqing, and the two of them seemed to have evaporated from the world. Even the guards sent by the emperor searched for ten days in a row, but there were no clues.
Yan Yunnuan had a bad premonition, could someone deliberately kidnap them and want to threaten Mo Linzi? If this was the case, she really seemed to be eager to rush back to Mo Linzi's side, oops, she was not sure what the situation was, and she had already sent a book to Mo Linzi, who was far away in the capital, to discuss with him. The emperor walked up to Yan Yunnuan with a slight smile: "Nuan'er, are you thinking about Mo Linzi?"
Yan Yunnuan smiled sheepishly: "Grandpa Huang, how do you know everything." "You girl, everything is written on your face. "Through Yan Yunnuan, the emperor seems to be able to remember Concubine Qi. When they first met, Concubine Qi was like this, and it was in vain to think about it. "Grandpa Huang, let's go, Nuan'er will accompany you to the Imperial Garden. Yan Yunnuan looked at the emperor's arm affectionately, and the two left the imperial study hand in hand. The second princess was really anxious in the cold palace, why didn't Pingyang Hou send someone to save her?
Yan Yunnuan, a slut, didn't know what kind of fox tricks she used, but actually made the emperor obey her, not only canonized her as the lord of Qinghe, but also let her live in the palace. Mo Linzi, you still don't know what kind of woman you married! The reason why the emperor kept the second princess was for the sake of the Eastern Zhou Kingdom. After all, she is here to make peace, if she has any mistakes, she can't explain to the Eastern Zhou Kingdom.
Of course, for what she did, the emperor had already written to the emperor of the Eastern Zhou Kingdom, telling him that everything was up to him to decide, and he believed that he would not have any favoritism. Qingqing opened his eyes in fear, where is this, it was pitch black, he obviously just wanted to come out and run out, making Mo Linyan anxious. Who asked her to say that angry at him, hmph, he didn't know how good Mo Linyan was, and he didn't listen to his father many times and rebelled against him. also helped Mo Linyan join forces to deal with the group of women in his father's backyard, but in the end, in Mo Linyan's heart, he didn't treat him as a son at all.
What kind of place is this now, he is a little scared, his stomach is already grumbling with hunger, and no one has brought him food, is he going to starve to death? Qingqing wants to cry aggrievedly, he has a good life in the northern Xinjiang country, but he has to run out to suffer with Mo Linyan, it is really cheap. If my father knew, he might scold him for being unproductive, how could he become a big thing in the future?
What he didn't know was that Mo Linyan was locked up very close to him. As soon as Mo Linzi got out of the carriage, the housekeeper hurriedly greeted him, "Second young master, there is an old man visiting." "Old man, Mo Linzi frowned slightly, how many old people can there be in the capital? When I walked into the hall, I realized that it was Yi Gongzi, who was Mo Linyan who married a relative of the Northern Xinjiang Kingdom. Yi Gongzi was dressed in a light blue robe, and the whole person looked extremely energetic, and strode forward: "Lin Zi, don't come to harm." ”
He was really polite to Mo Linzi, and called Lin Zi directly. Mo Linyan and Qingqing can leave the Northern Frontier Kingdom and go to the Northern Qi Kingdom, and they must have been wronged in the Northern Frontier Kingdom. Yi Gongzi looked at the talent, but he didn't expect to bully women and children. Mo Linzi didn't have a good attitude towards him, and said a few perfunctory words lightly. "Lin Zi, wait, I don't know why you have this attitude towards me?"
Yi Gongzi walked up to him and stopped him, Mo Linzi took a few deep breaths, then raised his head and pulled the corners of his lips lightly: "My mother just died, and there is a lot of inconvenience in the house, please forgive Yi Gongzi." Housekeeper, go and arrange for Yi Gongzi to go to the upper room of the Cuizhu Restaurant in the capital. "I don't have time to talk to him, looking at Mo Linzi's appearance, I probably don't know about the disappearance of Mo Linyan and Qingqing. The housekeeper was just about to come over, but was rejected by Yi Gongzi: "You don't need to arrange it, I just live in the Mingguo Mansion directly." Just take me to the yard where your eldest lady lived before!"
The housekeeper's eyes drifted to Mo Linzi, he couldn't make a decision, now that the eldest princess has passed away, Mo Linzi has the final say in the affairs of the house. Mo Linzi didn't squeak, turned around and left, whatever Yi Gongzi wanted, he stayed if he wanted to.
