Chapter 6: Suddenly
"Really?" Zhao Wanshi immediately asked in surprise. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In fact, she had no intention of being an enemy of Zhao Shu, and she herself knew that if she went to the Huns, without the backing of Dayong, her situation would be very difficult.
It's just that if you want to go left and right, then you're embarrassed.
No one can be left and right in front of the interests of the country, and sooner or later the grass on the wall will die ugly.
Zhao Shu didn't expose it, and nodded, "Really, you also know that compared with you, Tulev is more inclined to marry me, you must know that I am the prince's daughter, a super county lord, and you are just a princess of Qinfeng, and the benefits of marrying me are greater than marrying you, but don't worry, I have no interest in being the queen at all, I have no interest, but Tulev wants to calculate me, Zhao Bi wants to calculate me, you want to find a way to divide the collusion between Zhao Bi and Tulev, I guarantee that Dayong will be your most powerful backing." ”
Zhao Wanshi didn't dare to reply immediately, she thought about it for a long time, Zhao Shu was not in a hurry, just waited quietly, and instilled some thoughts in her at a critical moment, such as, "Zhao Bi has a bad reputation, and the prince has a very high reputation, choosing to stand on Zhao Bi's side at this time is undoubtedly the most wrong decision." ”
Another example, "Although Yide is favored, but he does not have a son, if Zhao Bi is her son, but Concubine Ning will not agree, the adoptive mother and biological mother, no matter who Zhao Bi chooses, it is all wrong, he wants to be the emperor, it is difficult." ”
And so on, Zhao Wanshi didn't understand, and she heard it in a fog, but Zhao Shu exaggerated the pros and cons, and she was also moved, and after half an hour, she finally nodded, "Okay, I promise you, but you have to promise me and help me." ”
"You still don't understand? Even if we have a hatred for each other, in front of the Huns, I choose to help you, and I will never cooperate with the enemy and lure the wolf into the house. ”
Zhao Wanshi got the promise and smiled with satisfaction.
After she left, Zhao Shu lay on the chaise longue and thought about today's events, if everyone is waiting for an opportunity, then this time the Xiongnu prince will come to the court is the best opportunity.
Thinking about it, I fell asleep after a while, and when I woke up, the sky changed.
"County Lord, it's not good, something happened." Xiao Guozi said in a low voice.
Zhao Shu glanced out the window, it was still dark, "What time is it?" ”
"At the end of the day." Xiao Guozi helped her up and put on her cloak, "There is news from the palace that the Ten Princes committed suicide in fear of sin. ”
Zhao Shu was stunned when she heard this, and asked in disbelief, "You mean Zhao Yan is dead?" ”
"Yes, suicide in fear of sin." Xiao Guozi said again.
Zhao Shu hurriedly tightened her cloak, "What crime?" She walked as she spoke, and as soon as she reached the door, Xiao Zhuzi came over in a hurry.
"Returning to the county lord is collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country." It was Xiao Guozi who replied.
It's just that as soon as his words fell, Xiao Zhuzi immediately reported, "County Lord, Concubine Ning has been sent to the cold palace." ”
"What?" Zhao Shu had the urge to laugh, things were moving so fast that she couldn't believe her ears.
The feet did not stop, all the way out of Qionghua Courtyard, Xiao Guozi and Xiao Zhuzi beside him, one left and one right, Xiao Zhuzi said: "A little prince died in the palace, the emperor was furious and investigated thoroughly, and he didn't want to find out about Concubine Ning's transfer of the prince back then." ”
Zhao Shu paused and looked at Xiao Zhuzi, "Concubine Ning changed the prince?" Didn't Yide hand over the child to Concubine Ning to raise? ”
"No, Concubine Ning originally gave birth to a princess, or was she stillborn, and stole the four princes to act as her own son." Xiao Zhuzi was a little disdainful in his words, this matter was clearly to deceive the people of the world, to deceive Emperor Mingde, and to lie one after another.
Is bullying brainless?
Zhao Shu frowned, pondered for a long time, and a rooster croak pulled her thoughts back, "What about Zhao Wanshi, what did she do?" ”
"In Cining Palace, there seems to be nothing wrong with her." Xiao Zhuzi said.
Zhao Shu sneered when she heard this, turned around and went back to Qionghua Courtyard, and yawned, "I'll sleep again, the sky hasn't fallen, don't call me, it's best to clean up this matter, don't act rashly." ”
Xiao Zhuzi and Xiao Guozi glanced at each other, and they didn't know how to answer now.
And Zhao Shu didn't bother with them, climbed into bed, and fell asleep.
She is not worried that things will not be handled well, Zhao Bi has abandoned the two magic weapons, it can be seen that she has reached the end of the road, the art of war is cloudy, the poor Kou Mo chases, now to provoke Zhao Bi, maybe it will hurt the enemy by a thousand and lose eight hundred.
At this time, in Cining Palace, the people who could speak in the palace gathered in the main hall, the Queen Mother, Emperor Mingde, the Empress, Concubine De, Yide, Hao Shumei and other people.
And Zhao Bi knelt in front of everyone, he looked embarrassed at this time, dressed in single clothes, kneeling on the ground, with tears on his face.
"Please, the imperial grandmother forgives the mother and concubine, please ask the father and the queen mother to forgive the mother and concubine, even if she is confused for a while, but she has also sincerely said to her sons and ministers over the years, please ask the imperial grandmother, father and queen mother to read that she has no merit and hard work in raising her children, and will be punished leniently."
He said that he kowtowed, and his forehead was bleeding and did not stop, and he saw that Yide was distressed, pinched his handkerchief and wiped his tears, and was very generous and decent, and pleaded, "Your Majesty, the concubine is very grateful to my sister for raising Bi'er to adulthood, and I also ask the emperor to bypass my sister, if there is no sister...... Bi'er...... Bi'er is afraid that he will not survive today. ”
After that, she glanced at the Queen Mother, and it happened that the Queen Mother also looked at her, different from the Queen Mother's majestic gaze, her expression was much weaker, like a white lotus, pure and immaculate, kind and innocent, when she came into contact with the Queen Mother's gaze, she shrunk her neck in fear and didn't dare to say anything.
Emperor Mingde immediately looked embarrassed, and did not dare to look at it from the attitude, he only dared to be angry with the Queen Mother, and tended to sympathize with Yide.
The Queen Mother snorted coldly, and turned to ask Zhao Bi, "Fourth, the mourning family asks you, how did the tenth die?" ”
Zhao Bi lowered his head, anger flashed in his eyes, but he quickly recovered his grief, he raised his head, his eyes were full of tears, and the grief on his face was not known to be true or false.
"Imperial grandmother, the tenth brother and grandson have always been close, he took the wrong path, and the grandson did not stop it in time, it is the grandson's fault, you punish the grandson."
The Queen Mother sneered, "Paper can't hold the fire, what is the truth, sooner or later it will come out, it has nothing to do with you, what do you do with the mourning family?" Let's go back. ”
After speaking, he no longer paid attention to Zhao Shu, and turned to Zhang Chu: "Let the Criminal Department investigate thoroughly, the mourning family does not believe that Lao Shi will collaborate with the enemy and commit treason!" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Cumulus outside the door hurried in, and whispered beside her: "Queen Mother, Tulev has asked people to spread the word that the Ten Princes are just like-minded with him, and the two are friends, and ask why you want to give his friends and friends." ”
"Presumptuous!" The Queen Mother's hand slapped on a few, her face full of murderous anger, "Barbarous, so rampant!" ”
However, the civil strife was not settled, and she only said two words of venting and did nothing more.
Zhao Bi, who was just kneeling on the ground, quietly wiped the sweat off his head, and put down the boulder that mentioned his throat.
"Queen Mother, take care of the phoenix body, don't be angry." Emperor Mingde spoke out to appease.
The Queen Mother suppressed the anger in her heart and looked at Emperor Mingde, "Emperor, you have an idea about this matter." ”
She was talking about Zhao Bi's mother and son, Emperor Mingde understood it, and was very pleased to take Yide's hand and said: "Since the son has been recovered, it must be recorded in your name, as for Concubine Ning." His expression was cold, "Hmph, reduced to a beauty, grounded in the cold palace, and you can't go out of the cold palace for half a step without a summons." ”
Yide was moved and couldn't bear to shed tears, so excited that he didn't know what to say, the rest was the tear-jerking scene of mother and son recognizing each other, the Queen Mother didn't plan to watch it, and waved her hand, "Let's go down, the mourning family is lacking." ”
No matter how biased Emperor Mingde was to Yide, he didn't dare to be unfilial, and led her big and small women and Zhao Bi to quickly withdraw from Cining Palace.
After everyone left, Hongxia said: "Queen Mother, the slave maid saw that the strangulation marks on the neck of the ten princes were strangled to death, and then made into a false appearance of self-hanging." ”
"He has grown up, and he has made people guilty." The Queen Mother's tone was solemn.
was so angry that she frightened the initiator Zhao Wanshi, where had she seen the Queen Mother angry, and her face turned white with fright.
The Queen Mother looked at her and sighed, she went to the Huns like this, I was afraid that she would be gnawed to the point that there was no scum left, but if she could go to Cining Palace to report, she would be considered courageous, "Go down and rest." ”
Zhao Wanshi was so frightened that her whole body trembled, and she knelt down under the shadows, "Queen Mother, I'm ...... Chengping ...... "She said incoherently, her upper and lower teeth chattered, and she couldn't speak clearly.
The Queen Mother sighed, "Don't worry, the mourning family won't let him harm you, and no one will know that this matter has anything to do with you." ”
Zhao Wanshi got the promise, put her heart down, and kowtowed gratefully.
"Thank you Queen Mother, thank you Queen Mother for your great kindness."
After she said that, she was helped by Cumulus to go to the side hall, leaving the queen mother in the palace without saying a word, I don't know what she was thinking, for a long time, the sky was already bright, Jin Xi brought breakfast, she said as if she had made up her mind: "Concubine Ning's life, don't need to be protected." ”
Everyone, in unison, said, "Yes." ”
This decision was made after she made a decision repeatedly, and she was very disappointed in Zhao Bi.
Zhao Shu woke up, Chu Chun and others tidied her up, had breakfast, Zhou Hanyan came over, she has been playing very well in the capital recently, and there is a tendency to have a lot of fun.
As soon as he saw Zhao Shu, he began to talk about the big things in the capital, "Sister Ajun, do you know, Concubine Ning...... No, Ning Meiren was beaten into the cold palace, it turned out that the fourth prince was the son of the imperial concubine, and people outside were saying that the four princes were capable, and now they are much taller, and they can compete with His Royal Highness the Prince. ”
"Where did you hear the rumors?" Zhao Shu asked.
Zhou Hanyan sipped his tea and said mysteriously: "The casinos are all open, Sister Sun's casino, I also bet, I bet on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to win, under a thousand taels, Sister Jun, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must win the four princes, a thousand taels is all my savings, my father won't give me silver......"
She was pitiful, and the gambling was reasonable, Zhao Shu glanced at her angrily, and then said, "Xiao Guozi, take 100,000 taels and press the prince." ”
Xiao Guozi: ......
Zhou Hanyan next to him jumped up, "Sister Ajun, lend me some silver, okay, I promise to repay you with interest." ”
Zhao Shu looked at her pitiful appearance and was extremely cute, and shook her head helplessly, "Three thousand taels, no more." ”
"Okay, good, three thousand is three thousand." She can't take out a child now, otherwise she wouldn't be sad.
The girl who ran away from home finally realized the pain of having no money.
"I'm going to go into the palace to greet the Queen Mother, are you going?" Zhao Shu said suddenly, inviting her into the palace for the first time.
Suddenly, Zhou Hanyan was startled, she was stunned for a moment, and then cheered, "Really? Go, go, have to go, but you'll have to wait for me, I'll change my dress. ”
She got up, lifted her skirt, and turned to run.
It's really a girl who doesn't know what it's like to be sad, Zhao Shu shook her head, quite envious.
Zhou Hanyan, after changing her clothes and Hanfu, felt that she was not satisfied, and finally Zhao Shu urged several times, she gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and wore a long skirt with Zhao Shu dragging her chest and waist to the waist and embroidering black and red azaleas.
Zhao Shu heard early in the morning that there was a woman of different races living in Yongwang's Mansion, but Zhao Shu didn't lead her into the palace, and she didn't take the initiative to mention it.
Seeing Zhou Hanyan again, she was not wearing the legendary clothes that exposed her belly button, but wearing the clothes of this dynasty, although she was deeper than Zhao Shu and others in silhouette, she was really a beauty, and with the clothes on her body, she looked playful and glamorous without losing her dignity.
She was satisfied.
"Zhou Hanyan visited the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is a thousand years old."
Speaking fluent Chinese, the Queen Mother was even more satisfied, swept away the haze caused by Zhao Yan and Concubine Ning, and cordially called Zhou Hanyan to her, "Good boy, are you homesick?" ”
"I think so, but Sister Ajun is good at smoking, and she doesn't particularly want to." She has a hard mouth, but in fact, she is very homesick, and her eyes are red.
This kind of woman who writes joy, anger and sorrow on her face has not been seen in the palace for many years, including Zhao Shu, who has not been there since she was nine years old, the Queen Mother was quite emotional, patted her hand, "Good boy, take this place as your home, if you are wronged, find the mourning family, and the mourning family will call the shots for you." ”
Zhou Hanyan was so moved that she was about to cry, she heard that the Queen Mother was in charge of the government and was a majestic person, and many people were afraid of her, but at this time, she only felt the kindness of the Queen Mother, and she was not fierce at all.
sniffed, "Well, Hanyan will definitely do it, Queen Mother, I used to read the script, saying that I must perform when I meet the Queen Mother, is it okay to sing to you with Yanyan?" ”
"Okay." The Queen Mother glanced at Zhao Shu, pretended to be very dissatisfied with Zhao Shu, and said, "This elm pimple will never please the mourning family. ”
When Zhao Shu heard this, she immediately shrugged her shoulders and spread her hands, "Look, you don't hurt Ah Jun now, you hurt others instead." ”
"The mourning family doesn't hurt you, can you eat the mourning family?" The Queen Mother is smiling and chanting, no, she is a hooligan.
When Zhou Hanyan saw the Queen Mother for the first time, he saw that she was in a bad mood, and when he saw that Zhao Shu was not really angry, he said: "Sister Ajun, you are going to fall out of favor." ”
"You're everywhere, why don't you sing soon?" Zhao Shu glanced at her, however, the next moment, several people laughed.
Seeing the Queen Mother's eyebrows slowly soothing, she gradually reassured.
Zhou Hanyan's singing voice is very beautiful, and his singing voice is excellent, if he gets the guidance of a famous teacher, he will become a great tool in time, but most of them look down on singers today, and no one will be a singer, especially those with status.
Moreover, the interracial songs are somewhat fresh, and the Queen Mother does not dislike the interracial songs very conservatively, she listened to them quite seriously, and after being happy, she generously rewarded Zhou Hanyan with some good things.
Cining Palace is happy, but other places are different. (To be continued.) )
