In the courtyard of Xiao Qianwei in the backyard of King Yan's Mansion, Zhu Chuyu sat indifferently and listened to Mrs. Zhu's chatter casually. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info until he couldn't bear it anymore before he said angrily: "That's enough!" Mrs. Zhu was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that Zhu Chuyu's face was not good-looking. hurriedly said: "Yu'er, what's wrong with you?" Could it be that someone is angry with you? Zhu Chuyu snorted lightly and didn't speak, Mrs. Zhu didn't understand what she meant, but when she saw this, she breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "Mother just said, Yu'er is the one who is about to be the princess, who dares to give you anger?" In the past two years, your father has always said how Concubine Zhu's slut is, hum! She didn't hurt our Zhu family badly enough? It's still a good daughter of a mother. Zhu Chuyu stroked his forehead and said, "Mother, what do you want to say?" Mrs. Zhu looked at Zhu Chuyu and said, "This... Yu'er, seeing that His Royal Highness King Yan is about to ascend the throne, do you want to tell Prince Qianwei to arrange a position for your brothers in the court, and it will be good for you in the future, right? Zhu Chuyu lowered his eyes and said lightly: "Arrange positions, you are right, in the past few years, a few of them have not made the slightest progress!" How can I arrange it for them? Mrs. Zhu disagreed, and said a little unhappily: "Why do you say that about your brother, don't the county lords of Star City and Prince Wei stuff their people into the most important positions in the court?" Your brother has told me, can they do it, can't you? Yu'er, your third brother died in the palace and couldn't come out, and you will become a princess in the future, don't you need to rely on your mother's family? Hearing Mrs. Zhu talk about this, Zhu Chuyu became even more angry, gritted his teeth and said, "Well said!" Who is the person arranged by the Lord of Star City and Gongzi Wei? Who are those people in the Zhu family? The eldest son of the Qin family, the seventh son of the Xie family, the son of the Lin family and Nangong Xu, which one is not capable and can take charge alone? They went to help the Yanwang Mansion before, why didn't you say anything when there was a mess in Jinling City before? was questioned by her daughter so aggressively, Mrs. Zhu couldn't help but shrink back. But he quickly recovered again, and said as a matter of course: "It was so chaotic at that time, who knew ......" Zhu Chuyu sat back in the chair a little tired, and said: "So, this is the reason why His Royal Highness King Yan is willing to use Wei Gongzi's people and not you." Mrs. Zhu was a little anxious, "What should I do then?" Yu'er, are you just watching our Zhu family fall? If your mother's family is defeated, do you think Prince Qianwei will still value you? Zhu Chuyu's face was slightly gloomy, and Mrs. Zhu immediately knew that she had hit her daughter's heart. secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with concern: "Yu'er, will Daddy harm you?" As long as the Zhu family is well, you can stand up and be a man in the royal family. Zhu Chuyu snorted lightly and sneered: "The Zhu family is fine, just with those few wine bags and rice bags, it will be good if they don't bother me." Mrs. Zhu was a little sneering, "How come?" Your brother they... It's not that I don't want to be motivated, it's just that I don't have a chance. Zhu Chuyu lowered her eyes and was silent, Mrs. Zhu really said what was on her mind. She understands Xiao Qianwei's ambitions, so she also understands the importance of winning over forces. These days, they have hit soft nails in the Qin Xie family in a row, and Xiao Qianwei has already made up his mind to get married. Even the ladies who had told her today to come to the palace banquet had the idea
。 If Xiao Qianwei wants to win over people in the court, he will definitely not be able to look down on those with low status. If you want to marry into the door, you must at least give the title of a side concubine. And he has been married for several years without children and daughters, and he is not loved by King Yan and the princess, if the mother's family falls, I am afraid that the position of the princess will not be stable in the future. After a long time, Zhu Chuyu said: "I know, I will discuss it with my husband." Mrs. Zhu was overjoyed, clasped her palms together and smiled: "That's right, you brothers and sisters can rest assured that you and my father can help each other." Seeing that Zhu Chuyu's face was still gloomy, Mrs. Zhu cautiously asked, "What is on Yu'er's mind?" Zhu Chuyu smiled bitterly and shook her head, her mother is not a smart person, what's the use of telling her?" Is there anything else going on with my mother? Mrs. Zhu thought for a while and said, "Yu'er, Concubine Zhu's slut... Do you just let her go? Speaking of Concubine Zhu, Zhu Chuyu's face was also a little ugly, and he said coldly: "Otherwise, what else can I do?" Xiao Qianye knew the current affairs and gave the throne to his father. Even for the sake of fame, the father must treat Xiao Qianwei's family well. After ascending the throne, at least Xiao Qianye will be given the title of county king. Concubine Zhu is the concubine of the county king. Mrs. Zhu pouted, "It's just a side concubine, but my son is a prince and concubine." Zhu Chuyu warned: "In short, you are not allowed to provoke Concubine Zhu without my permission!" Actually, Zhu Chuyu was a little skeptical that his mother could bargain in front of Concubine Zhu. Even she was deceived by Concubine Zhu, who used to think that she was cowardly and cowardly and had no opinions. But now look at it, is this something that no assertive person can do? A woman who has lived in the palace for so many years is obviously not a good stubble. Mrs. Zhu had to nod, but there was still a little unwillingness between her eyebrows. "Young lady, it's time for a feast. The princess, please come over with Mrs. Zhu. Outside the door, the girl hurriedly came to say. Zhu Chuyu swallowed what he still wanted to say to Mrs. Zhu and nodded, "Let's go over here." Before Zhu Chuyu took Mrs. Zhu back to the Water Pavilion and sat down, a girl outside the door told Nangong Mo that she was back. Princess Yan smiled: "Don't let her in yet." The eyes of all the ladies in the Water Pavilion couldn't help but look at the door, this Star City County Lord's reputation is not small. Many of the ladies present have seen her, but they are not very familiar with her, just because when they were in Jinling, the county lord of Xingcheng really didn't like these social entertainments. Nangong Mo walked in from outside the door alone, and as soon as he stepped into the door, he had a feeling of being in the spotlight, and he paused slightly and walked in the direction of the main seat. Such a leisurely appearance like a leisurely stroll makes many people think thoughtfully in their eyes. Everyone knows that the county lord of Xingcheng has an outstanding appearance, but her record and reputation are a little strong, so that many ladies who have never seen her always feel that the county lord of Xingcheng is either five big and three coarse, or has an empty appearance and vulgar behavior. At this time, it was very uncomfortable to look at it. The woman who walked in was dressed in a light blue shirt, because she had just come back from outside, Nangong Mo was not wearing gorgeous and exquisite clothes. It's just a very ordinary light blue shirt, although the fat powder is not applied, but it is still picturesque and radiant. Even she doesn't have the aggressive momentum of many martial arts practitioners, and the corners of her lips smile with a very clear and graceful appearance, as if she is a noble girl from a family who came out of a picture. "I've seen my mother, aunt." In private, Nangong Mo and Wei Junmo are still like mothers, but they must be renamed on the surface. If you still call Princess Yan your aunt on this occasion, I am afraid that outsiders will immediately make up the rumors of the discord between Wei Gongzi and Princess Yan. Princess Yan nodded with a smile and said, "Good boy, get up quickly." What about Jun'er? Nangong Mo smiled lightly: "He has something to do and entered the palace." Princess Yan nodded and said, "You came back just in time, go over there and sit with your aunt." "Yes." Hearing that Wei Gongzi did not come, many people were secretly a little disappointed. It must be known that although Wei Gongzi has a pair of purple eyes, he is one of the most beautiful men in the entire Jinling Imperial City in terms of appearance. However, today is a banquet for the female dependents, but I am afraid that even if Wei Gongzi does not enter the palace, he will not come back. Nangong Mo walked to Princess Changping and sat down, looking around and seeing no two children. Princess Changping said softly: "A few children were taken by the seventh sister to play." Do not worry. "Princess Lingyi has a casual temperament, and she has no children and no daughters under her knees, and she didn't even bother to participate in the banquet when she saw a few cute little buns. Nangong Mo breathed a sigh of relief, "It's rare that Aunt Seven likes them, it's their blessing." "There was harmony and happiness in the palace of King Yan, but in the palace, there was a gust of wind and lightning and thunder. Before Wei Junmo entered the study, he heard the sound of falling things inside, and after a pause, Wei Gongzi continued to walk calmly towards the door. "The eldest son." The guards outside the hall saluted. Wei Junmo raised his eyebrows, "Who's in there?" The guard hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice, "Master Zhou." In the imperial study, King Yan's eyes were gloomy, and he didn't seem to have the slightest excitement and eagerness to conquer the world. In the temple, several old men with gray hair or gray hair were escorted to their knees. It's just that without exception, although they were kneeling, the eyes of these people looking at King Yan were full of hatred and anger. The head was raised high, without the slightest hint of respect. King Yan snorted lightly and said in a deep voice: "This king doesn't want to talk nonsense with you, pull it out and cut it off!" An old man who had just scolded the most was pulled out by the guards, and everyone else couldn't help but change their faces. The white-haired old man led by him is Xiao Qianye's most trusted confidant Zhou Xiang. The rest are also a group of important ministers who were previously locked up in the side hall of the imperial study by Xiao Qianye. King Yan looked coldly at the people who seemed to be stunned, and said in a deep voice: "This king raised troops just for the sake of appeasement. If it weren't for you ministers who are bewitching Your Majesty, how would Your Majesty have ended up where you are now? Zhou Xiang sneered twice, "Jing difficult? Qingjun side? I don't know His Royal Highness King Yan, where is the king now? King Yan's face was slightly gloomy, "Your Majesty is deeply ashamed of the world, and does he have anything to say to the voluntary Zen throne?" "Bullshit
! Zhou Xiang couldn't help jumping up and scolded angrily: "Your Majesty is obviously forced to look at by you!" ”
King Yan sneered, "If it weren't for your incompetence, why would Your Majesty be here?" ”
Zhou Xiang scolded angrily: "Xiao You, you conspired against the rebel and killed the king to seize the throne." In the future, under the Nine Springs, what face will you see Emperor Taizu's heroic spirit?! "Presumptuous!" King Yan was furious, "If it weren't for the fact that you had bewitched Your Majesty to cut down the feudal domain and persecute the imperial uncle, why would this be the case!" Come on, pull this minister down to this king, the Zhou family, all over the house! "Don't worry!" Zhou Xiang gritted his teeth, "The old man is following the first emperor and Brother Han, and he will never serve you, a chaotic minister and thief, as the king!" As he spoke, he was about to hit the pillar next to him, but outside the door, Wei Junmo flicked his fingers, and Zhou Xiang, who was about to hit the pillar, fainted immediately as soon as his body became weak. King Yan was so angry that his face turned pale, and he raised his head and glared angrily at Wei Junmo who was standing at the door. He said coldly: "What are you saving him for?" If you want to die, let them die! Immediately copied the Zhou and Han families for me, and asked for a beheading on a certain day! And you guys.... King Yan's cold gaze swept over the people kneeling on the ground, "If you don't want to live, just try it, this king is not afraid of killing!" Everyone was frightened, not knowing whether they were frightened by the thrilling scene just now or by the anger of King Yan, so they didn't dare to speak against each other for a while, and let the guards pull them out. Zhou Xiang, who was unconscious, was also carried out.
The attendants in the study secretly breathed a sigh of relief after seeing King Yan's gesture of retreat, and quietly lowered their heads and retreated. There were only two father and son left in the study, and King Yan was still angry, gritted his teeth and said, "What are you doing saving that old thing?" It's just an old immortal, and if this king kills him, he will kill him! ”
Wei Junmo was not in a hurry, but said lightly: "How can they be in the palace?" ”
King Yan choked up and hesitated for a moment before saying the matter again. It turned out that the Zen throne ceremony and the enthronement ceremony were about to be held, and the Zen edict could be written by Xiao Qianye himself, but this edict of succession needed a respected person to write it. The first choice is naturally Zhou Xiang, and no matter who is in the court, his reputation is not comparable to Zhou Xiang. Most of the scholars who are more famous than Zhou Xiang are in the opposition and not in the court. And Zhou Xiang is Xiao Qianye's diehard, if he comes to write the edict, it will naturally be more effective.
It's a pity that His Royal Highness King Yan, who thinks that after Xiao Qianye agrees to abdicate, these old stubborn people can give in, are still too sweet. recruited Zhou Xiang and others, and they quarreled before they could say enough three sentences. Zhou Xiang was forced to abdicate because of Han Min's death and Xiao Qianye, and he did his best to scold King Yan. In fact, King Yan was able to endure until Wei Junmo came back and didn't directly cut Zhou Xiang, and he had already cultivated people over the years.
Wei Gongzi's calm purple eyes looked at him a little strangely, "What makes you think... Will Zhou Xiang write an edict for you? ”
King Yan's face suddenly darkened, and he glared fiercely at Wei Junmo for a long time without speaking. Wei Gongzi said: "Xiao Qianye Zen position, the world will only praise him for not loving power." Zhou Xiang is now writing an edict for you, isn't it just to tell the world that he is in a hurry to serve the new master? A scholar values reputation more than life, do you think he will promise you? "Therefore, this is completely His Royal Highness King Yan who is idle and has nothing to do to make himself uncomfortable.
King Yan said angrily: "Then what do you say?" Do you want this king to write it himself? "He's not so shameless.
Wei Junmo lowered his eyes and thought, Zhou Xiang is indeed the best candidate, but unfortunately Zhou Xiang is also the most unlikely candidate. After thinking about it, Wei Junmo said: "Just pick one directly from the great Confucian in the court." Nothing is perfect. ”
King Yan raised his eyebrows and said: "This king doesn't like to deal with those sour scholars, how did you and Wufang go out of the city today?" ”
Wei Gongzi said indifferently: "With Xie Hou's help, everything is going well." Zhou Xiang ......"
Speaking of Zhou Xiang, King Yan's face tended to deteriorate again, Wei Junmo didn't care, "Han Min is dead, even if Zhou Xiang looks at him no matter how unpleasant he is, please bear with me." ”
"......" King Yan was silent for a long time, "This king knows!" ”
