Chapter 82: Wooing in disguise
Liu Ruoan looked disgusted, "Are you familiar with him?" Is there anything I can't hear? And tell him alone, you are not afraid of him......"
Liu Huai coughed and retorted, "When I was playing in the garden with him, you were still sleeping in your mother's belly!" ”
Liu Ruoan was dumbfounded. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Really?" Liu Ruoan looked at Qu Ziyan as if seeking verification. Since it is so intimate, how can he come to the opera house to assassinate the emperor.
Qu Ziyan didn't answer directly, just looked at her gently and said, "You go out first!" ”
Liu Ruoan saw that the two of them did seem to have something to say in private, and they didn't want to stay in this house, so he said, "That gentleman can't move his mouth!" ”
"Huh?" Qu Ziyan looked puzzled.
"Ahh Liu Ruoan spat out, "The gentleman doesn't move his mouth!" ”
Qu Ziyan smiled bitterly, "Got it!" ”
Liu Ruoan left the room with great interest.
Seeing her back, Liu Huai said, "You don't need to ask, you know, it must be Ruo'an who secretly contacted you and let you know that we are here, right?" ”
Qu Ziyan was about to deny it, but Liu Huai said again, "I can't imagine that this girl trusts you so much!" ”
Qu Ziyan found that his topic was a little off-topic, but he didn't bother to deal with him, and let Liu Huai talk to himself.
"You just said I disgusted you! Not really! Liu Huai sat on the edge of the bed, "Frankly speaking, I don't like Su Cheng very much!" He is just a reckless chicken and dog thief, is it not because he is forced to be helpless, I will never agree to let him marry my daughter! ”
Qu Ziyan sneered, "I am also a reckless chicken and dog thief in the rivers and lakes!" And, it's your family business, what are you telling me all this for? ”
"Nope! You're different! Liu Huai looked at him, "You are from a famous family, how can he be compared to you?" ”
Qu Ziyan felt a burst of disgust for no reason, "Come on, if you have anything to say, just say it!" Don't beat around the bend! ”
"I want you to help me get rid of Su Cheng!"
Qu Ziyan was a little surprised, and didn't ask why, but asked, "Why should I cooperate with you?" ”
Liu Huai narrowed his eyes, "Don't you want to get Ruo'an?" ”
Qu Ziyan was instantly angered by his words, "You are insulting me, and you are insulting your daughter!" She's a person, not a bargaining chip! Maybe you have many children and she is nothing to you, but to me, she is a woman I want to cherish so much......"
"So what?" Liu Huai stared at him unhurriedly, "She is someone else's wife now, how can you cherish it?" ”
Qu Ziyan was speechless, he simply changed the topic and said, "As far as I know, since Su Cheng became a concubine, he hasn't done anything to be sorry for you and sorry for the big man, why did you get rid of him?" ”
"Because he's Liu Xi's man!" Liu Huai lowered his head, with a hint of chill in his eyes, "I found out that he was secretly colluding with Liu Xi!" ”
Qu Ziyan laughed heartily.
"What are you laughing at?" Liu Huai asked.
"I also colluded with Liu Xi, do you want to get rid of me too?"
"You and Liu Xi ......" Liu Huai was a little unexpected, but he quickly calmed down, "Don't you expect him to rehabilitate your family after he takes the throne one day?" ”
"If you don't count on him, can you count on you?"
Liu Huai snorted coldly from his nose, "If he will rehabilitate you, I'm afraid that the river will flow backwards!" ”
Qu Ziyan raised his eyebrows at him defiantly.
Liu Huai then said earnestly, "Sooner or later, one day you will understand that Liu Xi is more than just an ambitious wolf!" He is a venomous snake! ”
"So what, his father Emperor Yun is so kind to our Qu family, and we should work for him!"
"Shaohan," Liu Huai struggled to his side, "I know you're talking angry!" And I know you have a grudge against me! As he spoke, he coughed again, "But that incident is widely implicated, and it is a choice made by my father, if I am for the rehabilitation of your family, I will be trapped in the unjust ...... of the emperor."
Qu Ziyan looked at him in surprise and anger, "So, do you admit that our Qu family is wronged?" ”
"I've always known that this incident has nothing to do with your family or the Wei Chi family!" Liu Huai lowered his head a little ashamedly, "Those who have passed away...... They are just victims of the struggle for political power! ”
"Are you done with a single word of the political struggle for power?" Qu Ziyan trembled with anger, "Our Qu family came to Dahan from Qidan thousands of miles away, and we and the Wei Chi family did our best for Dahan, what did we do wrong?" More than 100 members of the whole family were executed overnight! What are we doing wrong? Why should you fall victim to your father's political struggle? ”
When Liu Huai heard him say this, he immediately understood in his heart that for so many years, Qu Ziyan must have secretly investigated this matter, perhaps, he had already found out everything, perhaps, he was still researching some details, but he knew a little bit of the inside story.
"They shouldn't have been involved, they shouldn't have been involved in Emperor Yun's incident!" Liu Huai said.
"Emperor Yun is very kind to our Qu family and the Wei Chi family, the cause of his death is confusing, how can he not care as a courtier?"
"The monarch's violent death is already full of conspiracy!" Liu Huai's eyes showed helplessness, "The people who know are almost dead, and those who survive are afraid to avoid it, they are good, and they desperately stick it up!" ”
"You're simply reversing right and wrong!" Qu Ziyan refuted, "The first emperor clearly pretended to be a usurper of the king, but my father and Ruo'an's grandfather were too sincere, and I thought that the first emperor would see everything and ask for an explanation for Emperor Yun's death, but I didn't know that the real murderer was the first emperor!" ”
Liu Huai was shocked in his heart, and lowered his voice and said, "Don't talk nonsense without evidence!" ”
"Hmph," Qu Ziyan sneered, "You know if it's nonsense!" ”
Liu Huai was a little embarrassed, originally wanted to win over Qu Ziyan, talking and talking, but he was getting farther and farther, so far away that he pulled out all the grievances in the early years. It seems that Qu Ziyan already knows everything, and since this is the case, it is time to make a statement. Liu Huai thought to himself.
"I know that you have been wronged," Liu Huai sighed, "Since ancient times, the king's hands have been stained with blood, but the first emperor is my father after all, I can't question what he did, let alone make everything he did public to the world in order to rehabilitate you, whether it is right or wrong, I can't be disrespectful to my ancestors!" ”
After speaking, Chong Qu Ziyan bowed deeply.
Qu Ziyan looked at him with disdainful eyes and smiled coldly.
Liu Huai straightened up and looked at Qu Ziyan, and suddenly changed his words, "But there is one person who can!" ”
"What?" Qu Ziyan was puzzled.
"I don't allow myself to do anything disrespectful to my ancestors, but ......" Liu Huai sighed weakly, "My father has indeed done something wrong in this matter!" ”
Qu Ziyan looked at him suspiciously.
"What I can't do, there is someone who can do it for me!"
"Who?"
"Joan!"
Qu Ziyan's face was full of question marks.
"As long as Ruo'an ascends the throne as emperor, this matter will definitely be thoroughly investigated!"
"This ......" Liu Huai changed too suddenly, and Qu Ziyan was difficult to adapt for a while.
"In the middle of the night, I learned that Cheng Xuan was dead," Liu Huai frowned deeply, falling into a state of mourning, "At that moment, I finally understood what Yu Dawu meant when he said that the crown prince Cheng Xuan did not have the appearance of an emperor!" This unfilial son colluded with Wang Zhan to deliberately murder me, I thought that he would ascend the throne smoothly, but I never expected that he would die so suddenly, and moreover, it was Su Cheng's people who did it! ”
Liu Huai coughed angrily. Qu Ziyan was so angry when he heard what he said, and then he suddenly realized that the real reason why he wanted to kill Su Cheng was probably this, right? Although Liu Chengxuan colluded with Wang Zhan to kill him, after all, this is his biological son, maybe he will deceive himself into thinking that Wang Zhan bewitched Liu Chengxuan.
"It wasn't Su Cheng's people who did it!" Qu Ziyan categorically denied it.
"How do you know?"
"Don't care how I know, in short, it has nothing to do with Su Cheng!" Qu Ziyan replied.
"Since you don't say it, you have to make it clear what it's all about, right?" When Liu Huai knew that the so-called truth was not necessarily the truth, the doubts in his heart came together with fear.
Qu Ziyan thought about it and told Liu Huai the truth of the matter.
After listening to this, Liu Huai questioned, "So, all this you know is just Su Cheng's words!" ”
"Yes," Qu Ziyan replied, "but if he really wants to kill Liu Chengxuan, he will definitely assassinate him unknowingly, how can he be so stupid that everyone knows about it?" ”
At this moment, he was more concerned about what Liu Huai said about Liu Ruo'an's ascension to the throne and rehabilitation, and before Liu Huai could figure out the reason for Liu Chengxuan's death, he asked again, "Back to the topic just now, what do you mean by saying that Ruo'an ascended the throne as emperor?" ”
"I'm sure you've heard that prophecy about Joan, right?"
Qu Ziyan nodded, "I heard that it was spread by Xu Yuehua!" I guess she must have eavesdropped on the conversation between Xu Xian and Yu Dawu! ”
"At the beginning, I wanted Yu Dawu to give a clear statement, but she has been vague, and now, I am in trouble here, and the prince was assassinated again, but I suddenly became enlightened," Liu Huai paused, "Perhaps, now is the time!" ”
"What does this have to do with Joan?" Qu Ziyan asked.
"I have read the gentleman's roll she answered, although she is a daughter, although some of her views are a little immature, but she is very unique! Don't lose to any prince, and don't lose to some famous talents of the Han Dynasty," Liu Huai said to himself in response, "If she returns to Changluo, some things can happen, and these things can confirm that she is indeed destined to return......"
"What do you want to do?"
Liu Huai didn't respond positively, poured himself a glass of water and took a sip, and continued to talk to himself, "If it is confirmed that she is really destined to return, even if the ministers think that there are all kinds of inappropriateness and all kinds of reluctance in their hearts, they will play and ask me to make her ****!" ”
Qu Ziyan was stunned, and immediately showed a disapproving expression, "You haven't paid attention to Ruo'an from beginning to end, but now you say that you want to make her ****, with all due respect, this is really ridiculous!" ”
"The only woman I have ever loved in my life is her mother, do you think I don't value her?" Liu Huai took a deep breath, "Born in the emperor's family, the likes and dislikes of life habits can't be too obvious!" Affection for children should also be moderate! ”
"Hypocrisy!" Qu Ziyan retorted unceremoniously, "Do you value her and marry her to Shamon?" Could it be that she met Su Cheng by mistake and became the young lady of the Wan Chaohui, and she may not be able to tell what she was tortured by Mo Rigen now? ”
"I never thought about really letting her marry Shamon! Believe it or not, these are just expedient measures! Liu Huai replied confidently, "I have always wanted to give justice to the Qu family and the Wei Chi family," Liu Huai held the cup tightly, "but I can't do it......"
Qu Ziyan looked at him puzzled.
Liu Huai looked up at him and changed the way of chatting, "What if your father did something wrong...... What would you do? ”
Qu Ziyan's face was immediately filled with displeasure, "My father has been bright and frank all his life, how could he do something wrong?" ”
"Just imagine," Liu Huai said, "I said if!" ”
Qu Ziyan was silent, suddenly raised his face, looked at Liu Huai firmly and replied loudly, "No!" Father can't do anything wrong! His eyebrows were twisted together, "He has been innocent for many years, please don't insult him with such hypothetical words!" ”
Liu Huai couldn't help but laugh when he saw his face full of anger, "Look, it's just a hypothesis that makes you protect your father like this," Liu Huai's eyes were a little gloomy, "Why don't I protect my father?" ”
"But wrong is wrong!"
"I know!" Liu Huai replied loudly, "But why don't I feel embarrassed? Knowing the truth of the matter, but not revealing it, and continuing to conceal it, is an injustice to the deceased, to make it public, and to disrespect the ancestors! He let out a long sigh, "There is a folk saying that 'the father repays the debt of the son', I want to pay it back, but you tell me, how to repay this debt?" ”
Qu Ziyan vaguely understood, and said, "So you want to throw this 'debt' to Ruo'an?" ”
Liu Huai still didn't respond positively, he glanced at Qu Ziyan meaningfully, and replied, "In this world, people who want to redress their family and wash away their grievances are you, except Ruo'an!" Instead of counting on others, count on yourselves! ”
Qu Ziyan was a little confused by his words.
Liu Huai coughed a few times, poured another glass of water and took a sip of water and continued, "There are some things, the ancestral system of the Han Dynasty does not allow me to do this, but many systems of the Han Dynasty really need to be reformed, and new things must be injected in order to have new opportunities!" If you continue to stick to the rules like this, you will perish sooner or later! ”
Qu Ziyan cast an appreciative look and sneered, "I always thought that you were a person who was old-fashioned and old-fashioned, but I didn't expect you to be quite open-minded!" ”
Liu Huai twitched the corners of his mouth, and suddenly looked sad, "I just feel too tired, since Xin'er left my side in a negative mood because of the matter of the Wei Chi family, I feel that my life has become very bleak!" I am not a good emperor, and I don't want to be this emperor for a long time, if this thing can be done, it can be regarded as my long-cherished wish for many years, maybe Xin'er's resentment towards me will not be so deep! As he spoke, he smiled self-deprecatingly, "Doesn't such a childish thing sound like a person who is dozens of years old?" ”
Qu Ziyan was silent.
"Everyone has a vulnerable side!" Liu Huai let out a long sigh, "It's just that I didn't show it!" (To be continued.) )
