146 Entered Beijing and was sealed
"The former loyal and diligent marquis, the son of the general Shu Fufeng, saved the five princes Chu Qiao several times from danger, and captured the Northern Zhou general Hu Yanlu and the major general Hu Yanting, his heart is commendable, his heart can be reluctant, special, give the seal of four grades, Zhenwei Zhonglang General, a house on the university road, 10,000 taels of silver, ten pieces of silk and satin, and ten strings of pearl agate...... Chin this! β
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked, and their eyes focused on Xue Ye.
Xue Ye stood upright, his face as handsome as jade, and his eyebrows were soothing. Hearing the eunuch's decree, he lifted his robe and knelt, "Minister...... Thank you, Lord Longen, long live my emperor, long live, long live! β
During the action, the outpouring of a dignified and heroic spirit made the favor of most officials.
The only person, a touch of disgust and coldness quickly flashed between his expressions, and it was only for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, he looked excited, and there were even tears of excitement in his eyes, and he stumbled out of the queue, almost falling low, and his voice was choked, "The emperor's holy grace, bless my eldest brother's bloodline to return safely, long live my emperor, long live long live!" β
looked at Xue Ye with teary eyes again, his lips trembling, "Hua'er ......"
Xue Ye took two steps forward and knelt on the ground, his eyes drooping slightly, making it difficult to see his expression, but although his voice was soft, there was an indescribable attachment, "Second uncle......"
Su Fuyu hurriedly reached out to help, "Good boy, it's good to be back!" It's good to be back...... Big brother he ...... I can rest in peace......"
Saying that, there was another burst of pain, although Xue Ye didn't cry, but the slightly twitching shoulders made people see that the man under the iron bone was really sad.
Emperor Shunping's gaze fell on Su Fuyu, the corners of his lips were a little meaningful, he waved his hand, and laughed, "Okay, you have thrown me and all the ministers together and staged a big show of recognizing relatives!" Go, go, go home, recognize your dear! β
There was a joke made by Emperor Shunping in front, and all the ministers smiled and said goodbye one by two, and the smile on Su Fuyu's face became brighter and brighter, and he also set up a banquet for Xue Ye in three days, and vigorously invited civil and military officials to eat wine at home.
Most of the civil and military officials smiled and nodded, saying that they would definitely go to the show.
The third prince Chu Ye and the sixth prince Chu Yan glanced at each other, the brothers smiled at each other, but they all had their own calculations in their eyes.
The fifth prince, Chu Qiao, looked at Xin Shi with some concern (no, it should be Su Chonghua), he rushed back to the capital first, just to tell his father about his life experience, and ask his father to help send him back to the Zhongqin Marquis Mansion to investigate the cause of General Shu's death.
The father was very excited, and asked three times in a row, "Is Huai'an's child really alive?" β
He nodded again and again, but his father still didn't believe it, "Back then, the Su family was mourned, the mother and son, and the one that the wife of the general couldn't give birth to, all had corpses buried, and I saw ......it with my own eyes."
He explained, but his father waved his hand and asked him to bring people in, and he wanted to see them for himself.
He took the people to his father's bedchamber.
The moment he saw Su Chonghua, he clearly saw that there was a flash of water in his father's eyes, and he almost forgot his identity, so he jumped up and grabbed Su Chonghua's shoulder, and patted it hard, if he hadn't reminded Su Chonghua that his shoulder had been seriously injured, looking at his father's posture, he would have to teach Shu Chonghua's homework on the spot.
He was kicked out of the palace by his father, and waited outside the palace for an hour before he saw Su Chonghua come out and was sent out by his father himself.
What the two said, he didn't ask, and Su Chonghua didn't say anything, but from his slightly reddened eyes, the fifth prince could guess something that his father's country had half of the credit of the great general! My father has always been haunted by the tragic death of the general's family, and he doubled the compensation on Su Fuyu.
Now that Su Chonghua is back, his father knows that the cause of Su Fufeng's death is strange, and if it is confirmed that it is a ghost caused by Su Fuyu, he will not spare it! Su Fuyu is a person who is accustomed to conspiracy and calculation, and he returns to the Zhongqin Marquis Mansion, and the future is unknown......
Su Chonghua has saved his life many times, but now he is alone in the snake cave, how can he not worry?!
Xue Ye crossed the crowd and nodded slightly towards the five princes, who smiled at one of them.
Emperor Shunping looked at the expressions of everyone below into his eyes one by one, and he had a little calculation in his heart, so he waved his hand, and the great eunuch Lian Sheng next to him immediately shook off the dust and sang loudly, "Retreat from the dynasty!" β
The civil and military officials gathered around the uncle and nephew of the Su family and left the hall, and said some words of congratulations before they dispersed one by one.
Su Fuyu smiled and said to Su Chonghua, "Hua'er, go, go home with the second uncle, your second aunt knows that you are still alive, maybe how happy you are, your eldest brother and your fourth brother are at home, and they are chattering about your ranking every New Year's holiday...... Haha, now that you're back, you're going to remove the tablet from your ancestors...... On the pillar incense, comfort some of your parents and ancestors! We still have a bloodline ...... our big house."
Shu Chonghua shook his head, "Thank you, second uncle, the emperor has given me a house, it is reasonable, I should live in the house rewarded by the emperor, not to mention, I still have some followers around me, it is really inconvenient to disturb the second uncle." β
Su Fuyu naturally didn't say more, the two talked for a while, and Su Chonghua promised to go to Fuzhong for an official visit the next day, and the two parted ways.
As soon as Su Fuyu entered the sedan chair, the expression on his face became a little gloomy and cold.
As soon as he got home, he went straight to the study, and coldly ordered the people around him, "Go and find the eldest young master and the second young master to the study, and if you are not in the house, go outside to find them, and let them come back immediately!" β
The people around him all said that they were clever people, and they only saw the face of Su Fuyu and knew that there was a big event in the court today, and they were busy looking for people, and the eldest young master came to the study after a while, but the second young master happened to go to the Zhuangzi of the young master of the Wen family outside the city, and the two tossed, and when the second young master came back, it was past lunchtime.
"Dad, you are in such a hurry to call me back, but what happened?" There are still thin beads of sweat on Su Chongrong's forehead, which shows that he is coming back in a hurry.
Su Chongyao sat on the Taishi chair beside him, his eyes gloomy, "That little bastard is back!" β
Su Chongrong didn't react for a while, for a moment, frowned, looked at Shu Chongyao, and asked in disbelief, "What did the eldest brother say...... Dream of Chonghua? β
"Who else?!" Shu Chongyao glared at Su Chongrong, and snorted coldly, "I said earlier that I would rather kill the wrong person than let it go, but you are soft-hearted, and if you say anything, you will spare his life if you say that since it is not!" It's good now, people are back in fine clothes, loyal to the Marquis of Loyalty, do we let it or not?! β
Su Chongrong ignored Su Chongyao, and raised his eyes to look at Su Fuyu, "Dad, is the news reliable?" β
Su Fuyu's face was ugly, and he sighed, "The soldiers who were enshrined in the court today are Shu Chonghua!" β
"What a good means, change your name and surname and hide next to the five princes! After building a meritorious career, he came back in a grand manner, hehe......" Shu Chongyao sneered, looking at Su Chongrong with a mocking face, "Second brother, you have a good idea!" If that family had been brought to the end at that time, how could there be this embarrassing situation now? Our Zhongqin Marquis Mansion is going to become the laughing stock of the powerful in the capital......"
Su Chongrong's eyes were a little cold, and he confronted Su Chongyao, and said in a faint voice, "Big brother decided that the family hid Su Chonghua?" How many innocent people have you killed indiscriminately over the years, and I haven't seen you kill a righteous master, I only reminded you on the tuyere, but it all became my fault......" The mockery on his face was a few points more than that of Su Chongyao, "The title of the Marquis of Zhongqin on the left and right can't fall on my head, who am I working for and who I am busy for!" Dad, I still have something to do, let's go first......"
"Enough!" Seeing that the two sons were arguing, Su Fuyu slapped the table, stood up and looked at the two sons, "When is it, you still have the leisure to quarrel?!" As soon as he returned to Beijing, the emperor directly conferred the title of fourth-grade official without saying a word, how long did the second climb to get mixed with the fifth-grade official? β
He frowned and looked at Su Chongyao, "Your second brother just came back, I don't know, I just told you so much, did you play the piano to the cow?" β
Su Chongyao didn't speak.
Su Fu Yu glared at Su Chongyao fiercely, "Our loyal and diligent marquis is due to the emperor's nostalgia for Su Fufeng!" Now, when Su Chonghua returns, the emperor's focus will naturally deviate from the Zhongqin Marquis Mansion and tend to be Chonghua! Urgent ......"
Su Fuyu took a breath, and Su Chongrong on the side continued, "The top priority is to take Su Chonghua back to the house, and he will sit in the Zhongqin ......Hou Mansion."
"Phew!" Shu Chongyao couldn't listen to the idea of Shu Chongrong, "He returned to the Zhongqin Marquis Mansion, and there is still a place for us?" If he can't keep his front foot back to the house, the holy decree will come in the door with the back foot and ask his father to return the loyal and Qinhou to him! After all, he is the heir of the true loyal and diligent marquis! β
Su Chongrong glanced at Shu Chongyao and nodded, "Big brother is right. Dad, I think that after Su Chonghua returns home, you will write to the emperor to ask the emperor to remove your loyal and diligent marquis, so that the emperor will not be suspicious of you......"
"Su Chongrong, what rotten idea did you come up with?" Shu Chongyao got up from the Taishi chair, raised his foot and kicked the Taishi chair, "I sue you, Zhongqinhou is mine!" I've worked hard for so many years, and as soon as he came back, he told me to give up, and there was no door! β
"Bastard!" Su Fuyu scolded loudly, "When did Zhongqinhou become you?" Your dad and I aren't dead yet! He took a few breaths and said to Su Chongrong, "Shu Chonghua will come to the Hou Mansion tomorrow, you are responsible for persuading him to stay, in two days, I will go to the emperor and say that I will return the loyal and Qinhou to Su Fufeng, you ......" He glanced at Shu Chongyao and shook his head, "How did Shu Chonghua get to the Five Princes, you go to find out what is going on, he can quietly make these contributions to the Five Princes, it is by no means so simple!" And the two fathers and sons, Huyanlu and Huyanting, you can arrange for someone to find out what is going on as much as possible......"
The long-cherished glory should be under the long-cherished one, and the long-cherished Yaowu was a little resentful.
Su Fuyu sighed, "Yao'er, it's useless to talk about the side things now, sort out what is in front of you, and see the trick is the key!" Su Chonghua is the person of the five princes, we are the people of the three princes, the emperor gave him the title at this time, you ...... What you want to carry......"
Su Chongrong's face changed color slightly, "Daddy......"
Su Fuyu raised his hand towards him.
Su Chongyao reacted slowly and gasped, "Dad said...... How can it be? The Three Princes...... The fifth prince, he has nothing, what can he fight with the third prince? β
Su Fuyu looked at his son, speechless for a long time, and at the end, he said softly, "Escort the prisoners, why do you need to summon the five princes back to Beijing......
Su Chongyao was speechless.
Su Chongrong's face became more and more solemn, "In this way, what the emperor wants...... Then we ......"
"Before the selection of the crown prince is decided, everything is unknown." Standing in front of the window, looking at the leaves swaying left and right in the wind outside, his eyes were slightly cold, "Let's wait and see what happens." β
Su Chongrong's eyes were heavy, and when he heard the words, he nodded slowly.
Shu Chongyao also realized the strict zhΓ²ng sex and didn't say anything more.
β¦β¦
Su Chonghua returned to the inn and discussed with Shi Niang in the house for half an hour, and then the two came out together and went to visit Master Yuan, the teacher of Su Fuyu.
Lord Yuan almost couldn't hold back his tears, grabbed Su Chonghua's hand, looked up and down, and a mouth that could speak well in the past would not say anything other than "good".
Su Chonghua felt his true meaning, and was also slightly moved, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Lord Yuan three times, which made Lord Yuan cry even more.
Meng Yuanlang came to ask for peace, and Su Chonghua was busy helping, "Uncle Meng, you are your father's best friend, how can you worship your little nephew?" As he spoke, he was about to kowtow to Meng Yuanlang when he lifted his robe, but was pulled by Meng Yuanlang with red eyes, "Okay!" Good! β
pulled Su Chonghua to look at it again, and said repeatedly, "Like your father!" Like your dad...... Your dad must be very relieved to see you grow up......"
Su Chonghua nodded with red eyes.
Asked about Gu again, Meng Yuanlang wiped his tears, "I have sent someone to pick up Gu's younger brothers and sisters, and I will be able to return to Beijing the day after tomorrow." β
Thank you.
Several people talked for a while, and Lord Yuan asked him about his plans, and Su Chonghua did not hide it, and told him that he wanted to go back to the Zhongqin Marquis Mansion to find out the truth of the matter.
Master Yuan and Meng Yuanlang glanced at each other, and Lord Yuan said, "Okay, you have grown up, it is time to find out the truth and return your father and mother to a clean slate!" Just one thing I want to remind you. β
"Lord Yuan, please speak." Su Chonghua humbly bowed his head.
Lord Yuan stroked his beard and sighed, and said in a low voice, "Su Fuyu and his two sons are both the people of the third prince, and you have made meritorious contributions, but you have become the person of the fifth prince, coupled with the emperor's attitude...... In the next period of time, the Third and Sixth Princes will definitely send someone to contact you...... In the past two years, dozens of officials in the DPRK and China have died suddenly and violently....... Be careful. β
Su Chonghua's face was indifferent, "Chonghua wrote it down." β
Meng Yuanlang answered on the side and asked, "Chonghua, have you thought about it?" Although the fifth prince has a little military power in the army, he has no power in the court, no relatives to rely on, and his biological mother is not liked by the emperor, so the possibility of him ascending to the throne is ...... Twenty percent of the none. If we keep him, we have little chance of winning. β
Su Chonghua glanced sideways at Eleven Niang, who was sipping tea on the side, and smiled lightly, "Lord Yuan, Uncle Meng, what kind of people do you think the princes are?" β
Lord Yuan and Meng Yuanlang were stunned at the same time, and Lord Yuan said, "The eldest prince is kind, but he is frail and sickly, and he is not suitable for the position of crown prince; The second prince is young and intelligent, but unfortunately he is jealous of his talents, and he broke his leg when he learned to ride a horse, and he lost the position of the crown prince; The four princes are gentle, rich and rich, and can get along with anyone, but it's a pity that they ...... Untimely death! Of the remaining three princes, the three princes are shrewd and wise, kind, and accustomed to attracting connections for their use, and have the most supporters in the court; Although the six princes are not as shrewd and wise as the three princes, they are fortunate to be humble and will learn from each other's strengths, and the most important foreign force is the best one; On the other hand, the fifth prince, the biological mother is just an ordinary palace maid...... No matter how you look at it, the chances of the three princes are better......"
Meng Yuanlang interjected, "It was not easy for the current emperor to get the throne back then, and now I am afraid that he will pay more attention to the three princes who have the support of the ministers." β
"Lord Yuan is wrong, and Meng Bo is also wrong." Shu Chonghua got up, his body was long, and the breeze through the window blew the hem of his wide clothes, and there was the sound of hunting.
"The emperor's favorite heir should be the fourth prince. As Lord Yuan said, the four princes are gentle, rich and rich, and the most impatient is the deceit of the court, who likes to travel around the most, and knows best what the people need. If he is the emperor, he will be able to sympathize with the suffering of the people, and he will be able to benefit the people with a compassionate heart, and he is gentle, and he is destined not to kill his brothers, and he will succeed him, which is the most suitable! It's a pity, no matter how well the emperor covered it up, he accidentally leaked a flaw, and took the lives of the four princes in vain, Lord Yuan, Meng Bo, you say, will the emperor let such a person who can't even tolerate his own brother sit on the throne? β
Lord Yuan was stunned, and sighed for a long time, "Yes, the emperor's throne is almost paved with blood, and what he is most impatient to see is fratricide......"
"The third prince and the sixth prince are all suspicious, so ......" Meng Yuanlang muttered to himself, and then shook his head, "But the fifth prince has no power or power in the court......"
"Who says no?" Su Chonghua smiled, "The military attache has me, and there are a number of soldiers at the border pass; The civil officials include the Yuan family and the protΓ©gΓ©s of the Yuan family, who have always maintained neutrality, and some really discerning ......."
Eleven Niang lazily interjected, "The emperor's approval is the king." β
Everyone was stunned.
Half-loud, Meng Yuanlang laughed heartily, and Master Yuan also stroked his beard and smiled, "It's this reason that told us to get into a dead end." β
β¦β¦
The next day, Su Chonghua went to the Zhongqin Marquis Mansion, and the family was very enthusiastic, and the second Miss Su Siyan almost cried and swollen her eyes, "Hua'er ......"
Speaking of which, the one who really cares about their big house is this Shu Siyan, who looks seven points similar to Su Sixiu, and Su Chonghua saw her crying and almost fainted, her eyes were red, and she called out sincerely, "Second sister......
Mrs. Zhongqinhou's face was twisted like a crumpled rag, whether she wanted to laugh or not, whether she wanted to cry or not, she just blindly wiped the corners of her eyes, but no tears fell, "Hua'er, the second aunt finally looked forward to you back......"
How many secrets are hidden under these words, Su Chonghua didn't even frown.
Su Fuyu and his two sons frowned, and Su Fuyu coughed lightly, "Okay, it's a good thing for people to come back, but it makes you cry like this...... The hour is not early, let Hua'er go to his father and ancestors first. β
Mrs. Zhongqin wiped the corners of her eyes twice and sent a few people to the courtyard of the ancestral hall.
Seeing a few people enter the ancestral hall, Mrs. Zhongqinhou's face was restored to its original state, Tie Qing was scary, gritted her teeth and said word by word, "Come on, go and clean up the Cuihua Garden for the third young master, the third young master will move back to live!" β
Several mothers-in-law looked at each other, and Mrs. Zhongqinhou saw that people did not move, and shouted, "Look at the main master, you won't take me in your eyes when you come back, right?" Not yet! β
The mother-in-law dispersed in a hurry.
