Emperor Taizu smiled and said: "I'm used to you guys, one by one, go out, I have something to say to Huan Ji alone." Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info "The concubine knew that her husband was trying to persuade her daughter to stay, so she turned around and left.

After Emperor Taizu saw the concubine go out and close the door, he took out a delicate small box from under the pillow.

He took the box and said in a normal tone: "I like to walk around, and I'm afraid of danger, so I specially created a separate set of tiger talismans, this thing Ying'er doesn't know, and Qian'er doesn't know either." “

Huan Ji didn't speak, and watched Emperor Taizu open the box, and there were three tiger talismans and a gold medal side by side in the box.

Emperor Taizu picked up the gold medal and said: "This gold medal can mobilize the soldiers and horses of any government in the Tang Dynasty, and this is the three tiger talismans I created separately." Each piece has words on the back. ”

Emperor Taizu turned over half of the tiger talisman, and half a word was written on the back of the tiger talisman, and it was not difficult to see that it was the three words 'Qing, Yang, and Zhu'.

Emperor Taizu said: "These three pieces can mobilize the armies of the Qing army, the Yang family army and the Zhu family army. I'll put them here for the time being, Li Qian's kid is too kind, I don't worry. If one day someone threatens his throne and threatens the Li family's country, you can use these. This secret edict was written by me myself, and this is the privilege I have given you, and even the ministers of the DPRK and China will not dare to talk about it in the future. ”

Huan Ji said: "The father is too careful, there is nothing wrong with Renjun, isn't the father afraid that his daughter has other thoughts?" ”

Emperor Taizu patted Huan Ji's hand and said, "You have been under my nose for so many years, I don't know who you are. You just don't want to care about such idle things, the child is the last words of his father's deathbed. “

Huan Ji closed the lid of the box and held it in her hand.

Emperor Taizu said with relief: "You already know many things in your heart, otherwise you wouldn't insist on sending me back to Beijing." Listen to your father's words and stay in Qingzhou, you just need to remember the oath you made and promise your father's words. ”

Huan Ji kowtowed to Emperor Taizu and got up to leave.

went out and said: "Zheng Lin, you personally escort my father back to Beijing, Cheng Ying, Jia Ming, let's go." ”

Zheng Lin asked people to release a small boat, and the three of them got on the boat and left.

The concubine helped Emperor Taizu to stand on the deck and said, "I don't know when I will see this child again." “

***

Huan Ji and Cheng Ying got off the boat and bought three horses in the town where the boat was parked.

Huan Ji rode alone in front, and Cheng Ying and Jia Ming followed side by side. They knew that the princess was in a bad mood and did not dare to come forward and disturb her.

Jia Ming asked, "The princess is a skilled horseman, why did she keep riding a donkey before?" ”

Cheng Ying said: "I don't know this, since I followed the princess, the princess either rode a donkey or a carriage, I always thought that the princess couldn't ride a horse." ”

The two of them looked at each other, thinking about what had happened in the past few months, it was hard for them to imagine that the person in front of them could be so ruthless, and how many secrets she was hiding.

Cheng Ying thought to himself: He didn't know what happened in Princess Qingzhou's mansion, but they went all the way from Maozhou to Yangzhou, and everything that happened in Yangzhou was vivid, and even Emperor Taizu's attitude towards Princess Huanji was different.

Huan Ji said: "Cheng Ying, you help me send a letter to the emperor, and I will definitely investigate the matter of leading my father to Yangzhou, no matter what the result is." ”

Cheng Ying immediately stepped forward and persuaded: "The princess can't, maybe the emperor Taizu and the emperor have their own arrangements?" ”

Hira stopped her horse and asked, "Is that really what you think in your heart?" It's been two months, and the emperor really hasn't found it at all? Huan Ji asked, and continued to fight the horse.

Cheng Ying didn't dare to answer, he received a little rumor, they waited for Emperor Taizu to recover in Yangzhou in the first month, and almost never got off the boat in the second month, but what happened in these two months was terrifying.

In the past two months, Jingshi and Qingzhou have made a lot of trouble for Emperor Taizu to be led out of Qingzhou, and Qingzhou has been investigated up and down, but all the relevant personnel who pass on the news and do not report it will cause trouble to the nine clans, punish the three clans, and other relatives and family members will either be distributed or accepted as official slaves.

The adult men in the families of the main involved personnel were all dragged to the checkpoint leading to Yangzhou from Maozhou, beheaded in public, and burned their bones and ashes in public.

After this matter was reported to the Jingshi, it caused an uproar, and court officials and imperial historians impeached Princess Huanji for her cruelty.

Qingzhou officials reversed their usual low-key silence, and directly took out the evidence that they plotted to kill Emperor Taizu, and pointed out that some of the people who wrote to impeach Princess Huanji also harbored evil intentions, and also pointed out other officials related to this matter.

The emperor sent someone to thoroughly investigate the matter for the second time, and finally found out that it was the remnants of the former emperor, and it pointed directly at the queen mother.

In order to show her innocence, the Queen Mother lived directly in the Buddhist hall. In the past few years, the queen mother has been living in seclusion in the harem, not seeing any outsiders, and not taking a step out of the palace, although the emperor has some doubts, but still chooses to believe that the queen mother suppressed this matter.

Although the matter was suppressed, the emperor still sent people to investigate in secret.

In the past two months, Princess Huanji blocked all the eyeliner of Emperor Taizu, and said that Emperor Taizu was not allowed to disturb him during his illness.

And she stayed by Emperor Taizu and Concubine Taizu every day like nothing happened, and didn't say a word about what happened in Jingshi and Qingzhou until they separated.

Emperor Taizu got off the boat and sat on the carriage, looking at all the documents piled up in the carriage in the past two months, Emperor Taizu said: "Look at the good things she has done, she really dares to do anything, those people are probably going to be scared." “

The concubine hurriedly persuaded: "She also feels sorry for you and is angry for you." I think Huan Ji did the right thing, and if it were me, I would do the same. “

Emperor Taizu touched the concubine's hand and comforted: "I'm not really angry with her, she broke my news to let me recuperate, I know all this." That child is soft-hearted, I feel sorry for her for doing such a thing, she values everyone's life, and she actually punished the three clans for me. ”

The concubine said: "Don't talk about the three clans, I don't think it's an exaggeration to think of the nine clans." ”

After Emperor Taizu returned to Beijing, he still lived in Princess Huanji's Mansion in Beijing, and the emperor met Emperor Taizu, and Emperor Taizu took all the evidence left by Huanji to the emperor.

The emperor left the princess's mansion after seeing it, and as for the final decision, it was up to him to decide.

Princess Huanji has returned to Qingzhou, she first went to see Wang Wensheng, Wang Wensheng said that the layout they have made in the past two months, this time they will definitely not let go of the Queen Mother and others.

Huan Ji looked at the person in front of him and said: "Let this go in advance, wait for the news from the Jingshi, my father is clear in his heart, and now he only depends on the emperor's meaning, after all, this country is his, and it is not up to us to control who he wants to use and who to listen to." ”
