Chapter 119: The new emperor ascends the throne, and Xi Yunjian leaves Beijing

The third prince must have done it on purpose, from the moment Zhou Qitai died, someone proposed that he succeed to the throne and preside over the overall situation, but the third prince refused to sit there. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

It wasn't until the Empress Dowager made the decision and beheaded more than 200 members of the Lao family that he started to ascend the throne. Because the new emperor will ascend the throne and will give amnesty to the world, so he will not be able to eradicate the Lao family.

For this alone, Xi Cui knew that the third prince was far more ruthless than Zhou Qitai, and she knew even more that the third prince seemed to be not very satisfied with her existence.

Of course, even if you want to clean her up, you will have to wait until everything stabilizes.

The three princes ascended the throne and became the emperor, and Princess Huali was the queen, worshiping Zhang Fuzi as the Taishi in charge of the imperial history platform, and those old ministers who assisted him with Zhang Fuzi were rewarded for their merits. Qi Yu was arranged in Zhongshu Province, and the six departments were changed to Shangshu Province, and six Shangshu were set up to perform their own duties and not to protect and interfere with each other.

He originally wanted Wang Shaoyan to continue to be the head of the household, but he was stopped by Yu Feng before the decree was issued. Yu Feng begged him to let Wang Shaoyan release his armor and return to the field. So he pressed this holy decree and summoned Wang Shaoyan alone.

Wang Shaoyan still had a sick face when he entered the palace, looking at him like this, the emperor vaguely had a feeling of yesterday. Such Wang Shaoyan can't help him at all. Could it really be that the Wang family can only do this?

After Wang Shaoyan left, he went to see the queen mother again, but the answer he got was, "The Wang family who can give it to the Zhou family has already been given, so leave a way back for the Wang family." ”

So the emperor decreed that he went to Wang Shaoyan's official rank, but gave him ten thousand hectares of fertile land and a thousand taels of gold, and let him go to be a rich idler.

Wang Shaoyan, who received the holy decree, dismissed the house slaves the next day, moved out of the old house of the Wang family, and took Yun Ting to buy a quiet and comfortable Erjin house for himself outside the city, leaving Mother Qi and Mother Mu to serve, and the family was happy together.

Yu Feng took Xi Cui to secretly go there to see them, Yun Ting was still the same, playing like a child all day long, but Wang Shaoyan had been busy with official business and had no time to accompany her, which made her temperament become a lot silent, but in the past few days, she has recovered almost as before.

Xi Cui only looked at it from a distance, and did not approach.

Their life like this is already good, and it is not worth being disturbed by anyone.

Next is the departure of Prince Baituo from Beijing. Because of the sudden death of the first emperor, the date of Prince Baituo's departure from Beijing has been delayed, and finally everything has settled down, and the new emperor arranged for Xi Yunjian to continue to escort them back to Zhenyi as Deng Yuanshan.

The emperor personally saw him off to five miles outside the city, and when he left, he took far more cars with him than when he came. There were several cars of the Great Xia Kingdom that Huali bought for their father alone. The new emperor's gaze always fell on those carriages with a smile, and occasionally looked at Xi Cui standing beside Yu Feng, with a clear face.

The team left the territory of the capital, and Lixiang and Huixiang got out of one of the carriages and came to Xi Yunjian and Prince Baituo, "Thank you for the help of the general prince, the two Miss Wang will ask the two to take care of it, and the younger ones will go back to regain their lives with the princess." Say goodbye! ”

Xi Yunjian and Baituo nodded at them with a smile and asked someone to prepare two horses for them. Before leaving, Xi Yunjian suddenly remembered something and stopped them, "Be careful to make the Ten Thousand Year Boat, you should go back and take another way." When I saw the emperor's eyes just now, it seemed that he had seen something, you better be careful, don't let people catch it and affect your family's concubine. ”

Reika Huixiang nodded, "Thank you General Deng for reminding me." ”

Watching them drift apart, Baituo came to Xi Yunjian's side, "It stands to reason that you and I are new acquaintances with this Nangong lady, but I don't know why, I'm just happy to help her help." But I'm just that, because I'm the kind of character myself, but you ......."

Xi Yunjian ignored him, and rode to the Wang family's sisters' car, "Shaomei Shaoju, this is already out of the capital, you can come out to breathe." It will take at least ten days to walk down this way, take advantage of the sky to see the scenery along the way, maybe this is the last time you will see the Central Plains. ”

The two sisters lifted the sedan curtain from the inside, Shaomei was smiling, and Shaoju was sad.

Xi Yunjian didn't say anything more, and rode to the front of the team.

This is the freedom that Wang Shaomei dreams of, but it is Wang Shaoju's exile that is difficult to give up. When the news of Zhou Qitai's murder came out, she was hiding alone in a dark room in the courtyard, and at that time she just knew that she was pregnant. Between extreme sadness and extreme joy, she was taken into the carriage to Zhenyi before she could sort out her clues. Although I have long known that my life is destined to be beyond my control, I really drifted with the flow like duckweed, and I was more or less unwilling in my heart......

Although Lixiang Huixiang followed Xi Yunjian's advice and went around the distance, she didn't want anyone to wait for them. No matter how well they stretched out their hands, they couldn't resist the outwright of the other party, and soon the two were defeated. Lixiang knew that it would be difficult to escape this time, so she took out the letter written by Wang Shaomei to Xi Cui in her arms, crumpled it into a ball and stuffed it into her mouth, and was about to swallow it, but she was shot by a cold arrow from behind, only to feel a fishy sweetness in her chest, and she even vomited out all the blood letters. Seeing the situation, Huixiang hurriedly leaned over to grab the letter, but was entangled by three or four short knives and couldn't move.

Reika endured the pain in her chest, lay on the ground and stretched out her hand to the bloody letter in front of her, but was surrounded by more than a dozen people rushing up from behind.

And the letter was also kicked outside the circle, and suddenly someone slowly walked up to the letter, leaned over to pick up the letter, turned around and walked to the front of the sedan chair not far away, and respectfully handed the letter in.

At that moment, Lixiang knew that she had fallen into a catastrophe, and they still affected Xi Cui after all.

On the side of the Liwang Mansion, Aunt Shu is giving birth, the princess and the prince are guarding outside the delivery room, Xi Cui takes someone to carry the food and puts it next door, persuading the second elder to eat something first, and she guards it first.

To say that this aunt is obviously not raising her head, but this production takes longer than the first one, and there are constantly women's shouts from inside, I don't know if she is acting or real. Xi Cui has never given birth to a child, but she always feels that Aunt Shu's voice sounds a little contrived.

The princess probably came over after eating a little, and Xi Cui went over to find someone to clean up and returned to his yard. Yu Feng had already returned, the person had already arrived at the study, and Xi Cui was just about to go in, when he heard Yu Feng's angry scolding from inside, "What do you mean it's late?" Didn't I tell you to answer them on their way back? How could it be late? ”

"Our people have been waiting on the nearest way back to Beijing, but they have not waited for anyone, so they sent people to look on other roads, and the people who came back reported that they had found traces of a fight on another road, and also found Huixiang's sword. It looks like they've been kidnapped. The one who answered him was a lieutenant general who had been following Yu Feng, and Xi Cui recognized him.

"Do you know who it is?"

"The subordinates also went to the scene to see it later, but it was obviously cleaned up and no clues were found. According to the estimation of his subordinates, Huixiang's sword was deliberately left there. It's just that why they did this, their subordinates are ignorant and can't think of a reason. ”

"Go to Princess Chaoyang's Mansion to ask for someone! Just say that I Nangong Yufeng asked you to go, if she doesn't give it to you, she will rob it! ”

"Lord Shizi, this is ...... Not quite right? Princess Chaoyang is the emperor's own sister, not to mention that you ...... before"

"You tell her that I will find a way to solve the matter between her and me, and if she dares to involve Xi Cui, don't blame me for not being merciful!"

"Yes, my subordinates will do it."

Xi Cui stood outside until the door opened and the deputy general came out, and when he saw Xi Cui, he first panicked and then didn't look at Xi Cui and hurriedly left.

The deputy general did not close the door, and Xi Cui walked in directly.

Yu Feng thought that the deputy general was back again, and was about to curse when he turned around and saw that it was Xi Cui, and immediately changed his face, "Why are you back?" Didn't you say that Aunt Den Launched it? Born? ”

Xi Cui shook his head and sat next to him, "Aunt Shu is still tossing over there, the mother and concubine and the father are all guarding there, I can't help in the past, so I'll come back first to see if Lixiang and they are back?" Feeling Yu Feng's body stiffen for a moment, Xi Cui continued, "I heard everything you just said, Lixiang and the others had an accident, right?" But how can you conclude that it has something to do with Princess Chaoyang? "And what happened between you before?

"You don't care about this matter for now, I will naturally help you come back. There are too many things during this time, and your mind is heavy, and now that some things are over, you can take a good rest. Yu Feng helped Xi Cui sit down, and he sat beside her.

"If you don't want to say that I don't ask, as you said, I'm really tired, it's time to rest...... When Lixiang and the others come back, just ask them to come to me directly. Xi Cui pretended to smile relaxedly, of course she knew that the matter was far from over, but she had to come sooner or later, and she couldn't hide. She looked at Yu Feng beside her thoughtfully, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a handsome man, such a man turned out to be her husband! But how long can she possess him?

She didn't know exactly when Xi Cui fell asleep, but she knew that Aunt Shu gave birth to a baby boy, and when the noise outside the room woke her up, she had already returned to her room.

Baby boy! With this child, Aunt Shu doesn't know how to toss.

Xi Cui packed up and went to the princess, and the prince was also there. The princess lowered her head and her eyes were red, as if she had just cried, and the princess sighed and sat on the side.

Xi Cui went over to ask for peace, but neither of them paid attention.

The maid who was waiting beside the princess quietly told Xi Cui that after Aunt Shu gave birth to the second young master, she made a fuss about asking the prince to promote her as a wife, saying that the prince had agreed to it before. But the princess didn't seem to be happy to do this, saying that she had also told the prince before, and that the second young master would be fostered under the princess's name, and she was also a sister-in-law in terms of identity, but Aunt Shu could not become an equal wife.

The prince was in a dilemma, Aunt Shu was about to hang herself early in the morning, and the prince had no choice but to come over and persuade the princess to give in.

Xi Cui walked to the princess's side and took the princess's hand, "Mother, such a trivial matter, why don't you make it so hurt?" ”

The princess looked up at Xi Cui, isn't this girl what can she do?

Xi Cui smiled and nodded to the princess, stood up, walked to the prince's side, paused slightly, and said, "Father, daughter-in-law heard that you have been getting more and more tired recently, and almost all the things in the mansion have been handed over to Yu Feng to deal with, right?" ”

The prince nodded, but he didn't understand what Xi Cui meant.

Xi Cui continued, "In this case, why don't you take this opportunity to put down the title of King Li, and recuperate your body for a while, and when your body is better, you can still go around, how is it better than staying in the house and taking medicine all the time, isn't it?" ”

Hearing her say this, the prince's face suddenly looked bad, but he didn't expect Xi Cui to dare to step down so blatantly! Even if you change to Yu Feng, you may not dare to say it, where did she Xi Cui get the courage? Is it really theirs to be the palace of the king?

Xi Cui seemed to have expected that Prince Li would be angry, so she couldn't help but deepen the smile on her face, and spoke again in front of the prince, "Father, don't think that I want to take your power!" I don't have that much ability, besides, if I really have such an idea, Yu Feng won't agree first! I'm just a temporary expedient measure, you can make such an attitude, although the abdication of the knight is to be folded, but you can write the fold first but not hand it over. I believe that as long as Aunt Shu knows about the existence of this excerpt, her side will naturally stop. I'll tell her the rest, and keep her from arguing and making noise, and our family will be safe......"

Only then did the prince understand that Xi Cui just wanted him to make a play for Aunt Shu, but this girl was too bold, and what he said at first really made him angry. Just get such a thing, Aunt Shu can really be obedient? He couldn't figure it out.

But the princess understood it and figured it out. Xi Cui's trick of drawing salary from the bottom of the kettle directly cut off Aunt Shu's back road, which made her completely desperate.

Then Xi Cui went to Aunt Shu's side, and at this time Aunt Shu was already tired, and she was half-leaning on the bedside to drink soup. Seeing Xi Cui enter, his face immediately changed, his two eyebrows were raised, and he pointed at Xi Cui and shouted, "Weasel gives New Year's greetings to chickens, you woman looks young, but this mind is even more ruthless than the princess!" But let me tell you, it's useless for anyone to come, the prince has already promised me! Promote me to be a wife, and my children will all be grandchildren! ”

With Lingxiang following, the people around Aunt Shu didn't dare to block Xi Cui's way, and Xi Cui slowly walked in front of Aunt Shu step by step. "You're right, I've never been a good person. But you're not up to me to deal with it personally. But you're so stupid, I can't stand being stupid, so I can't help but come over and mention you. That's why I'm here today with a lot of good intentions. ”

"You...... Get the hell out of here! Aunt Shu knocked over the hot soup in the maid's hand and yelled at Xi Cui.

Xi Cui ignored her, looked down at the soup on the ground, and smiled again, "This is angry?" I advise you to calm down and listen to what I say before deciding how to lose your temper. I'm here to tell you that my father has decided to give up the title to Yu Feng to inherit, which means that soon Yu Feng will be the new prince of Li, and I will be the princess of Li. Aren't you going to be a flat wife? Yes, when I go back, I will let my mother promise you and raise your identity. But you have to think clearly, what can you do if you become a flat wife at this time? Even if your children become descendants, as long as they are still raised under your name, then it is not Yu Feng's words that they are close and estranged? Our eldest lady is almost twelve years old this year, and it is time to say that she is at the age of kissing, what kind of mood should I use as a princess to propose marriage to my sister-in-law? Aunt Shu, you have to know how to be a man, just the things you did before, that is, you met the mother concubine, if it was me, you can imagine it! Before, the mother concubine was willing to foster your child under her name, in my opinion, the mother concubine can make such a decision can be called a bodhisattva of great compassion, and you are still stupidly refused? Well, let's see what kind of future you can give your children! ”

After Xi Cui finished speaking, she turned her head and left, leaving Aunt Shu sitting on the bed dejectedly, the woman who had just given birth loved to sweat, and after Xi Cui's stimulation, Aunt Shu was already sweating like rain at this moment.

She didn't believe that the prince would willingly give up the title, but the prince's recent body seemed to be really unable to hold on, and many things had been handed over to Yu Feng before. Don't......

She hurriedly asked her henchmen to go to the prince's study to find out the news, abdicate and let the lord go to the fold, Xi Cui said that it can't be counted, as long as the prince does not write down the fold, there is still room for redemption in this matter.

Soon her people ran back in a hurry, saying that the housekeeper on the other side of the study was personally guarding the door, and she did not dare to go up and ask. However, I heard the housekeeper talking to a few stewards from a distance, as if something big was really going to happen in the house. The prince is alone in the study, and looking in from the window, he is indeed writing excerpts, but I don't know what excerpts are written.

Aunt Shu was still not at ease, so she asked someone to change her clothes and decided to run in person.

But before she could go out, the prince had already come.

Aunt Shu asked a few words tentatively, and the prince heard the taste, thought about it, and said, "Don't be tempted, I know that Xi Cui has come to look for you, and she must have told you." I'm going to give up the title in advance and let Yufeng inherit it, and he has been doing everything in this mansion alone during this time, I think it's good. In this way, I can settle down and take care of my body, and in a few days we will go on a trip, what do you think? When the prince said this, he looked at Aunt Shu's look of expectation, he really loved her all these years, and naturally hoped that she would treat him sincerely, what he was looking forward to most at this moment was that Aunt Shu told herself excitedly that she was willing to follow wherever he went.

But Aunt Shu's expression was completely beyond the expectations of Prince Li, her eyes widened, she looked at the prince angrily, her face was pale, and her hands were trembling, "How can you give up your title at this time?" You gave everything to Nangong Yufeng, what should my child do? If you are not the prince, what is the use of me being your wife? I've been with you for so long, and you keep saying you like me, but in the end you don't leave me with anything? Is this your pampering? ”

At this moment, no one can understand the disappointment of Prince Li, he has spoiled Aunt Shu for more than ten years, and she is rude and willful, and even knows that she deliberately embarrass the princess, he pretends to be deaf and dumb. I thought that she also trusted her as a man, but I didn't expect that he might just lose his power and not really lose it, she had already revealed her true form......

Outside the arch of Aunt Shu's courtyard, Ling Xiang could hear the conversation inside clearly, and after hearing the last deep sigh of King Li, she quietly left there.

At this moment, Xi Cui was in Princess Li's room, and after hearing Lingxiang's reply, she and Princess Li looked at each other and smiled, Aunt Shu was afraid that it would really be over from now on...... (To be continued.) )
