Chapter 401: Helping the King

And just when Yu Wenyan untied his clothes and let the doctor treat his wounds for himself, while doubting his mother's sincerity to Mrs. Xiang, Mrs. Xiang lightly dropped a sentence, "Since there is no big problem, I will go back", stood up and wanted to leave.

Her face, in Yu Wenyan's opinion, is the usual indifference and ruthlessness, even if she wants to pretend to care about her son, she can't pretend.

"Mother," he called to her with a sneer, "that is, the child has become the son of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, do you plan to treat the child like this?" ”

"How dare you?" Mrs. Xiang turned around, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said shamelessly: "If you become the Son of Heaven, you are the first in the world!" Sewing the big festival and the big day, sewing you angry, Mother and I, I will also bow down to you. My mother said that only when you sit in that position, my mother and I will really be your mother, and will I really love you and love you. ”

"Mother did say something like that." Yu Wenyan laughed again.

That was what he had told his wife when he was very young. At that time, he didn't understand anything, but he didn't know that his mother had been doing that kind of thing so seriously.

He couldn't help but ask her with a ruthless face: "Isn't Mother afraid, she used to be too cruel to children, and after the children ascended to a high position, the first person to deal with was you, Mother?" ”

Mrs. Xiang was not surprised, but smiled lightly, "If that day really comes, I, as a mother, will become the first person to kill with a knife in His Majesty's hand, why not?" ”

Hearing such an answer, Yu Wenyan's eyes widened in shock. He didn't know why he had such a mother, a mother who always said incredible things and did incredible things.

He never knew her, it was, it was, it is. And he, in fact, has been trying to understand her, but now he thinks that even in the future, he will never be able to understand her.

This is the mother-son relationship between him and her.

The next morning, he dragged his still weak body and came to Chen Guogong's mansion alone.

At that time, Chen Xiang had just returned from the court, and Shen Liancheng was about to enter the palace to help the princess review the rules.

When she heard that the porter had come to report that Prince Rong had asked to see her, she delayed for a while.

Seeing Prince Rong's dejected face, she and Chen Xiang were both very surprised. I am afraid that such a decline is not caused by injuries on the body, but something in the heart.

Yu Wenyan returned the salute of the two, and gave another salute to the two, "This king came this time because of two things. ”

After that, he paused, his eyes swept over the couple opposite, and he didn't know where to start.

"What two things?" Shen Liancheng was acute, and when he saw that he was slow, he couldn't help but ask.

"Aman," Chen Xiang said solemnly to Shen Liancheng, "There is still something in your palace, hurry up!" ”

He wanted to send Shen Liancheng away.

Shen Liancheng was a little unwilling, but it was not good to lose his face in front of Prince Rong, so he hesitated, so he nodded in response.

"The Duchess of the Kingdom may wish to stay and listen to what the King has to say with the Duke of the Kingdom." Yu Wenyan was in a hurry to keep her.

"Okay." Hearing this, Shen Liancheng was too late to be happy, and at the same time, he couldn't help muttering in his heart.

What is there that she must listen to?

Chen Xiang also has such thoughts in his heart.

Yu Wenyan just told them about the situation last night.

"When the king found the concubine, the king's mother had already led people to ambush and wait for the rabbit. She killed the subordinates brought by the king, and the king lied to her, you will not let the king do this in vain, so she was willing to let the concubine go, and slashed the king several times, to prove that it was not easy for the king to get the concubine from her. ”

Chen Xiang and Shen Liancheng suddenly understood.

"So, the few people who accompanied you last night were Mrs. Xiang's people?" Shen Liancheng asked. Although this can explain Chu Batian's doubts last night, who knows what kind of thoughts Prince Rong holds?

"That's right." Yu Wenyan nodded, his expression still full of pathos.

Compared with Shen Liancheng, Chen Xiang was completely relieved when he listened to his explanation. He was even more sympathetic to what happened to him.

He has no father and mother since he was a child, only hatred, and he thinks this is the most miserable. After listening to Prince Rong's words this time, he thought that it was better for him to be alone with a mother alive like Prince Rong.

"Then what are the prince's plans?" He thought that if he could open his heart and talk to outsiders about such a hidden matter this time, it must have a plan.

Sure enough. Yu Wenyan immediately said: "This is the second thing that this king wants to say to the two of you." ”

"Lord Wang, please speak." Chen Xiang bowed slightly, indicating that he was listening.

Shen Liancheng also cheered up his spirits, and was very looking forward to what Prince Rong was going to say next. But she was always a little defensive, cautious, trying to hear some clues.

Yu Wenyan's next words shocked her.

"This king wants to implore the two of you to help this king and uproot all the big trees behind this king's mother!"

Yu Wenyan's words were earnest, and his expression was full of firmness and sincerity.

"I think you must know that behind the mother of this king, although the Xiang clan is not afraid of falling in the middle of the road, the supporters behind the Xiang clan have been hidden in the government and the opposition, mysterious and not to be underestimated."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of cloth with handwriting written on it, handed it to Chen Xiang, and continued: "On this, this is a person who has been inquired about by this king for many years and has an extraordinary relationship with this king's mother, directly or indirectly. ”

Chen Xiang only glanced at it and was amazed.

The person above him, just talking about the Six Officials' Mansion, shocked him very much. A few honest and honest ministers are among them. There are even ...... The people of the Shen family.

He handed the cloth to Shen Liancheng.

Shen Liancheng took a first look and found that the names of the prefect of the Xia Guanfu, Xue Tao, the Marquis of Wucheng, and his two sons were among them. She couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at Prince Rong, then at Chen Xiang, and opened her mouth.

"Look back." Chen Xiang reminded him, his eyes full of depth.

Shen Liancheng then looked back, and when she saw the name of her third uncle, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "How is this possible?" I'm a ...... of three uncles."

"Those who have something to do with this king's mother may not be extremely vicious or corrupt officials." Yu Wenyan explained, "But most of these people owe this king's mother. If the king's mother asks for something, they will respond and have to guard against it. ”

Thinking of Xue Rong and his third uncle, Shen Liancheng was a little flustered and short of breath.

Was it the same in the previous life? She was willing to live a depraved and chaotic life, and until she died, she didn't know who else was behind the Gu except for Li Wei, the founding county prince, who harmed the Shen family!

She couldn't wait for Chen Xiang to tell herself what it was like to be as Prince Rong and Princess Rong in his previous life.
