Chapter 2019: The Hidden King (2)

"Two years ago, you asked me about the hidden king, so I specially sent someone to northern Xinjiang to understand the situation, and it took a lot of effort to find out a little bit. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoAt that time, there were frequent wars in northern Xinjiang, and it was common for soldiers to be killed, injured and missing, and the personnel roster was inevitably a little chaotic, and not long after arriving there, the detachment where the hidden king was located suffered the blow of the annihilation of the whole army, and all the members were on the list of dead soldiers, although the hidden king reappeared later, but since then he has 'disappeared' from the army roster. So at that time, there were rumors that the hidden king had already died on the battlefield, and it was Chuan Shuai who was afraid that the emperor would blame, so he temporarily found a stand-in to come back. Although this kind of rumor is ridiculous, what is even more ridiculous is that the fact that the hidden king almost died on the battlefield did not cause a splash in Anjing City, and the emperor didn't ask about it, and just let it pass. According to my speculation, the emperor just wants the hidden king to fend for himself in northern Xinjiang, and it is best to die there directly, so that he can save himself from the charge of killing his son. ”

Regarding the speculation of the past, Xue Ying always reserved her attitude. "And then?"

"Later, there was even less news about the Hidden King, and some of them were just rumors that sounded fake. In short, the hidden king must have suffered a lot in the years in northern Xinjiang, but he did not die, nor did he make any contributions, probably just shrinking his head and enduring humiliation and stealing his life. Six years ago, he was recalled by the emperor to Anjing, and was seriously injured by bandits on the road, and after picking up a life, it is said that his health has not been good, so he has not come out much in the mansion of the hidden king all these years. ”

"What's the matter with that eagle?"

"At that time, he was seriously injured, and all the imperial doctors said that he would not live to be twenty years old, and it happened that the emperor caught a seriously injured eagle eagle when he was hunting, and gave it to him to raise, and what did he hope that he would regroup like that eagle and one day spread his wings and fly high again-no matter what the emperor thought in his heart, on the surface, he still had to play the role of a father who inspired his son to keep fighting, didn't he? But this hidden king doesn't know if he was stimulated in the north of Xinjiang, and his personality is extremely cowardly, although he asked someone to serve the eagle eagle and healed its injuries, but he took too much care of the eagle eagle and raised it into a big fat man, and he couldn't fly. The emperor said that he hoped that people would be the same as eagles, and sure enough, their fate was really the same: they never could spread their wings and fly high again. ”

Xue Ying remembered what the queen said that day, and couldn't help muttering: "With the situation of the hidden king, if the eagle is cultivated into the fierce appearance it should have, I'm afraid it will cause people to burn, right?"

Xi Xi thought for a moment and nodded: "Makes sense." His identity is sensitive, as long as he dares to show a little self-improvement attitude, I am afraid that he will directly face the emperor's butcher's knife, and it is wise to keep his eyes open. ”

Xue Ying shook her head: "Taoguang is not necessarily safe. Can you imagine that he is in Taoguang and raising obscurity, and the emperor can't think of it? Obviously he can forge ahead but deliberately show cowardice, that is bullying the king, and it is also a dead end. ”

Xi Xi paused: "Listening to you say this, the situation of the hidden king is quite difficult, showing strength is death, showing weakness is also death." ”

"That's why he almost died this time. Xue Ying sighed, "I can understand why the emperor suddenly became difficult." If the hidden king is still a child, then no matter how 'rebellious' he is, he will not be able to shake the imperial power. But now, as the Hidden King gets older and more uncertain, the urgency of the prophecy coming true is getting more and more seriousβ€”the sooner the sooner the disaster is removed, the sooner the peace of mind can be achieved. ”

"Why do you look like you're concerned, what does it have to do with you whether the Hidden King dies or not?"

"Probably it's the same kind of masonry. Although Master Xue San also wants to kill me, but anyway, I still have the peace charm of Ganxiao Temple as a basis, but the hidden king is not as lucky as me, and he doesn't have any basis to forget it, and it is the emperor of Dagu who wants him to die, and he can't avoid it at all. ”

"For this kind of person, you can sympathize with it, and don't be stupid enough to get involved. ”

"That's why you have to come to see me today? Are you afraid that I will get involved in the affairs of the hidden king because of a moment of sympathy? Alas, don't worry, don't say that I don't have the guts, even if I have that heart, I don't have that strength. ”

"That was really not what you asked for?"

"It's not. Xue Ying smiled bitterly, "Although the emperor and the queen have eleven thousand reasons to kill the hidden king, but from the current point of view, he is still innocent after all, so the queen mother thinks that the emperor will not bear it, and tries her best to persuade the emperor to avoid regret it in the future." The Empress insisted that the Emperor was a kind and gentle man, but the Emperor insisted that he was a ruthless Emperor. The kind and gentle queen asked to be the executioner in order to protect the kind and gentle emperor, but the ruthless emperor ruthlessly refused. In the end, the queen vomited blood because of her anxious grief, and the ruthless emperor relented. ”

Xi Xi was stunned: "I didn't understand. ”

"Actually, I don't really understand. Xue Ying had a headache, "I hope the divination results of the previous Lord Supervisor are wrong, otherwise these three people are too pitiful." ”

Xi Xi finally understood this sentence: "Don't care if others are pitiful or not, first pity yourself! Don't forget why you were declared to the palace." Okay, what are you doing to visit Princess Sui? Look, you're in trouble, right?"

When Xue Ying said this, Xue Ying finally remembered this matter: the reason why she was involved with the hidden king was because she went to visit Princess Sui that day despite the opposition of others, and then proposed to pick plum blossoms and make wine, and met the eagle eagle that suddenly went crazy when she returned to the light, so she was called into the palace that night to watch the thrilling battle between the emperor and the queen.

But who would have thought that just going to ask Princess Sui for peace could cause so many things?

She muttered, "It's really unlucky to drink cold water and stuff your teeth." ”

"If you know that you are unlucky, keep a low profile! I ask you not to get involved in the matter of the hidden king, in addition to the problem of the hidden king himself, there is another important reason, which is about the king of Sui. ”

"That's right, the biological mother of the Hidden King is now the pillow of the King of Sui, and my identity is the daughter of the King of Sui, if everything is legal, I am the sister of the Hidden King?"

Xi Xi rolled his eyes and said sarcastically: "No, you're really smart." ”

Xue Ying was extremely wronged: "What did I say wrong again?"

Xi Xi paused for a moment before lowering his voice and leaning closer to Xue Ying's ear and said, "Rumors, just secret rumors, this hidden king may not be the emperor's biological son, but the king of Sui." ”

Xue Ying was directly stunned by this news: "Won't it?"

"After all, rumors are just rumors, and no one can say for sure whether they are true or not, but they may not be groundless. King Sui and King Hidden are both royal taboos, and it is a capital crime to be contaminated with any of them, your identity is already embarrassing enough, you can leave this relationship as far as you can, don't be stupid about which pot not to mention, and then say that you are the sister of the hidden king, that kind of stupid thing, you know?"
