617. Sudden change
"Wait!" The Queen Mother was busy drinking, and after thinking about it, she said, "Let her wait in the outer hall, and say that the mourning family is asleep, and this matter will be discussed after the mourning family wakes up." ”
She is not allowed to run around, nor is she allowed to rest, the outer hall is not as warm as the inner hall, so freezing overnight can be described as a great punishment.
Chanyi heard the Queen Mother's words, and understood the meaning of the Queen Mother in her heart, the Queen Mother was unwilling to see her, although she knew the Queen Mother's attitude towards her early on, but this did not distinguish between right and wrong, she couldn't help but sneer in her heart, since she didn't want to see her, then she wouldn't stay here to be an eyesore.
She said to Aunt Shu Yue: "Then the concubine will not disturb the Queen Mother, and she will come to the Queen Mother early tomorrow morning to pay New Year's greetings." ”
As he spoke, he took the two maids and turned his head and left.
Aunt Shu Yue originally wanted to suppress Princess An after the empress dowager, but she didn't expect that people wouldn't give her this opportunity at all.
had no choice but to give up, turned back to the inner hall, and dozed off on the side of the queen mother's bed.
Chanyi walked out of Ci'an Palace, the more she thought about it, the more she felt breathless, but she was not an inner woman, so it was very inappropriate to walk in the inner palace in the middle of the night, thinking about Yunhua Palace, she couldn't go back, she had to go to Fuhui Palace.
The Fuyuan Palace is a little far away from the Chaofeng Palace, but it is relatively close to the Qianyuan Palace, and the Fuyuan Palace is the closest except for the Yunhua Palace.
Chanyi couldn't help but think on the way to the Fuhui Palace, the emperor let his aunt live in the Fuhui Palace, this is an intention to set up his aunt to fight against the queen, over the years, if it weren't for the queen mother to protect her aunt, I'm afraid that my aunt would also become the second concubine.
She secretly despised a little in her heart, men are always like this, if they don't like one, they always have to set up the other, and the two sides are better to be evenly matched, so as to fight for life and death, so as to free them, but she doesn't want to think about whether the one who is erected is willing to be roasted on the fire like this.
It's just that where the things in the world can be explained clearly with a single word, think about what might happen tonight, Chanyi doesn't have the strength to think about these things, I don't know what the emperor's attitude is, these are strange things that even she can perceive, as the king of a country, the emperor shouldn't know the slightest rumor.
When Chanyi arrived at the Fuhui Palace, Concubine Zhuang had already placed her two daughters to sleep, because she had been worried about Chanyi before, and then came out late from the Fenglai Palace, and learned that Chanyi had gone to Yunhua Palace, she felt that something was not appropriate, but the queen was behind her, she didn't say anything, only let the palace people pay attention.
Now when she heard Chan Yi frowning and saying these things to her, Concubine Zhuang chuckled in her heart.
"There is such a thing! In this way, the prince is not in the East Palace now, but in the Qianyuan Palace? ”
Chanyi nodded: "I guess it won't be wrong, I saw Liang Xingyong being helped by Sun Chenghai to go to the direction of the Qianyuan Palace, Sun Chenghai is the prince's personal eunuch, and he will not leave easily, if the emperor summons Liang Xingyong, how can he let Sun Chenghai invite someone?" Today is the night of Chinese New Year's Eve Chinese New Year's Eve again, what important government affairs can the emperor pass on Liang Xingyong? And the crown prince has been in the Taimiao Temple these days, even if the emperor has something to arrange for him, it is impossible to be on a day like today. ”
So there is only one reason to explain this, and that is that the prince finally can't bear to do it!
Concubine Zhuang tried her best to suppress the fear in her heart, and looked at Aunt Russell beside her, "You go to the Qianyuan Palace and send some soothing incense, just say that the palace is worried about the emperor, and I am afraid that the emperor will not sleep well at night, so I specially sent soothing incense." ”
In the past, as long as there is something to invite Emperor Wen, and the things are not good to speak directly, she will use this method to inform Emperor Wen, every time Emperor Wen knows, he will always take the time to come over, after all, there are too many private things in the palace, and she still has to go through Emperor Wen to deal with those major events, and usually Emperor Wen will come over if he has nothing to do.
Russell nodded and went to the Qianyuan Palace.
……
In the Qianyuan Palace, Emperor Wen casually wore a bright yellow jacket and sat on the warm kang.
Liang Xingyong was sitting next to the table on the left side of Emperor Wen, his hands full of green tendons were holding ink blocks and grinding ink, his head was lowered, and he didn't dare to look up at Emperor Wen.
Emperor Wen laughed coldly, "Does Liang Aiqing know what the fate of the fake writing of the holy decree is?" ”
Liang Xingyong couldn't help but tremble, forced himself to calm down, lowered his head, and his voice was low but very firm: "It is the holy decree written by the emperor and the minister, and the minister is just obeying the decree." ”
"It's just a good obedience," the smile on Emperor Wen's face did not decrease but increased, but the coldness in his smile seemed to freeze people to death, and he said sharply, "You are not obeying my orders, you are obeying the orders of that beast!" I didn't expect me to look away, heh! ”
Liang Xingyong hung his head and remained silent, afraid of Emperor Wen in his heart.
Who doesn't want to live for a hundred years, but also have this opportunity to live for a hundred years, if not, the wife is always good, if you follow Emperor Wen all the way, I am afraid that Emperor Wen will eventually remove him from the position of the elder of the pavilion, even Xie Ningyuan is Zhishi, he is inferior to Xie Ningyuan, if he is after Zhishi, it is still unknown whether the eldest son can enter the cabinet in the future, how can he not plan for himself?
After his mind was resolute, the speed under his hand was also fast, the ink was polished, and then the holy decree that he usually helped to draw was written out freely, and in the end, everything was fine when the emperor's jade seal was covered with it.
The prince on the side waited anxiously, and when he saw that the counterfeit decree was written, he immediately took the paper and went to the Shangshu room to find the jade seal.
The prince walked on the front foot, and Russell arrived at the Qianyuan Hall on the back foot, and was talking to the little eunuch on an errand in the outer hall, the little eunuch trembled in fright, and after figuring out the intention, he hurriedly went in to tell the truth.
In the inner hall, only Sun Chenghai and Liang Xingyong and Emperor Wen were present, and the little eunuch trembled and told Sun Chenghai.
Sun Chenghai frowned, glanced at Emperor Wen, and then said, "Imprison people, don't move!" ”
"No!" Liang Xingyong hurriedly stopped, "At this time, don't startle the snake, just let people reply that the emperor has rested, and the tranquility incense will be put away for the time being, and the emperor will be informed when he wakes up." ”
Sun Chenghai thought about it and felt that it was best not to alarm Concubine Zhuang in this way, so he nodded and asked the little eunuch to go back to Russell.
As soon as the prince entered the study, he felt a cold breath blowing in his face, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, the study room should not be so cold, every day the father and the king are here to discuss politics with the courtiers, every day the earth dragon burns the warmth, why is it so abnormal today?
It's just that this question flashed, and now his mind is full of jade seals, where can he take care of so much, striding in, he will reach out to a very familiar place to get the jade seal.
Suddenly, he only felt that there was a very smooth, flowing water object on his neck, and he paused, this touch was clearly ...... Blade!
The silent and dark Shangshu suddenly sounded a clear and smiling voice.
"Second brother, don't come to harm?"
This voice was very familiar, and his eyes widened in surprise, "You! How did you end up here? ”
Yes, it is Chu Shaoyuan who has been waiting for the prince in the Shang study, there is no doubt!
Chu Shaoyuan, who slowly paced out of the darkness, had a shallow smile on his beautiful face, and this smile became schadenfreude in the eyes of the prince.
The prince said hatefully: "Father asked you to ambush here?" ”
Chu Shaoyuan glanced at the prince lightly, reached out and took the forged holy decree in the prince's hand, flipped it over, and had a cold smile on his lips: "Second brother, didn't you make arrangements before the palace change?" How can I find out about such a big omission? ”
The obvious schadenfreude tone made the prince unwilling to the extreme.
He looked at Chu Shaoyuan and said, "Don't think that if you restrain me, you will win!" Hmph, my father is in my hands, if you don't want to bear the charge of rebellion, it's better to let me go obediently! ”
"Really?" Chu Shaoyuan's tone was still the same as if it was not salty or light, and he glanced at Wei Qing, who was holding the prince hostage with a knife, "It's just that if you want to let you go, I have to ask my father, well, then go to the Qianyuan Palace to see my father, if my father says let me let you go, I will let you go." ”
After speaking, he had already turned around and walked in the direction of the Qianyuan Palace, not caring at all about the secret guards beside the prince.
Every time the prince saw Chu Shaoyuan, he always felt a faint pain in his shoulder blades, but his injury was not caused by Chu Shaoyuan, and even Chu Shaoyuan had saved him, but every time he saw Chu Shaoyuan, he was always uncomfortable.
pressed the prince all the way to the Qianyuan Palace, and as soon as he arrived at the Qianyuan Palace, he saw Liang Xingyong kneeling in the outer hall, his face was already bloodless.
The fear in the prince's heart churned, and he looked at Liang Xingyong with his eyes wide open: "Liang Ge Lao, who are you?" ”
Liang Xingyong looked up at the prince, a pair of old dragon clock's eyes drooped without any energy, and instantly seemed to be twenty years old.
"Dark Guard! Where is the Dark Guard? Where is Yan Yunwei? The prince panicked and kept shouting in the outer hall.
Chu Shaoyuan thought he was noisy, so he pulled the cloak on the prince's body down and blocked his mouth: "Don't howl, it's disturbing dreams in the middle of the night!" ”
pressed the prince to the inner hall, and Emperor Wen was already sitting on the kang neatly dressed.
The crown prince looked at Emperor Wen with wide eyes and a cold gaze, and the whole person almost collapsed to the ground, he didn't understand that he just took the jade seal, why did things take a turn for the worse?
Emperor Wen snorted coldly: "Little brute, don't kneel down yet!" ”
The prince was pulled by Wei Qing, and fell to his knees with a pop, the prince struggled, but how could he earn a person like Wei Qing who practiced martial arts all year round.
Chu Shaoyuan stepped forward to salute Emperor Wen: "Father, my son has been waiting in the study room, and sure enough, the second brother hurriedly entered the study room to find the jade seal." ”
Emperor Wen nodded, and glanced at Chu Shaoyuan with a gentle look in his eyes, "I've suffered you, I haven't had a stable year in the past two years." ”
Chu Shaoyuan shook his head and said, "It is the duty of the sons and daughters to share government affairs for their father. ”
The prince couldn't see the scene of Chu Shaoyuan and Emperor Wen's father-son filial piety, and sneered: "You bastard! Don't pretend here, who doesn't know your mind? What do you say to relieve your father's worries, it's not to consolidate your power and please your father! ”
