Chapter 249 ~ Chapter 250 Interception and Killing
The queen's nervousness is the same as that of the second prince, which comes from a weak heart. Although the matter of planting the blame after the shipwreck in the lake that day was carried out by the two princes, it was discussed by their wives behind the scenes. If this matter is publicized, it is really not a glorious thing, not to mention the consequences of the emperor's anger, even the courtiers and the people of the world are afraid that they will not follow. Because after the first battle in southern Xinjiang, Prince Xiang is already famous, and people in the world can not know who the second prince is, but everyone knows Prince Xiang, and the people also gave him a very domineering name, the god of war.
The queen is uneven, and she also fought in southern Xinjiang, her prince is unknown, but Xiao Cuo has leaked his face ruthlessly, coupled with the emperor's unreasonable favor and love for Xiao Cuo over the years, even the queen can't help but wonder if the emperor and Prince Xiang are such handsome young men as broken sleeves.
For example, now. If it weren't for the emperor's favor, who would dare to stand tall in front of the queen?
Ask her, she still wants to ask him!
The queen suppressed her anger and smiled: "It's true that you don't have to worry about it, how can your imperial sister-in-law know about these men's affairs?" How to deal with it, of course, depends on your liking. If you catch that person, you will beat him to death and destroy the Nine Clans, and your imperial brother will still support you. ”
Xiao Cuo looked at the emperor with a smile and said, "If you really want to destroy the murderer's nine clans, will the imperial brother support me?" ”
The emperor smiled and twisted his beard, "Young people, don't be so heavy on killing." ”
"I still remember when I was a child, it was the royal brother who taught me how not to be bullied, and you said that if someone punched me. I want to fight back immediately, one is that I am so powerful that others will not dare to do it to me, and second, if I don't fight back on the spot, I am afraid that I will do it afterwards, and it will become me taking the initiative to provoke, and no one will see that it is others who bully me first, but will only think that I am bullying others. Therefore, this kind of thing must be carried out immediately. ”
Xiao Cuo's voice was full of nostalgia when he said this. It seems that you can see the little one crying in front of him, his nose is red, and he is hugging the thigh of the royal brother. cried and complained that the two little nephews bullied him, the little imperial uncle, was young, snatched his pastries, pulled his hair, and scolded him for being a little girl.
At that time, the royal brother was crying by him holding his thigh, and he hugged him when he had cried enough. It's like a father teaching his children. Sighing and teaching him what he had just said.
Although the royal brother is his elder brother. But in Xiao Cuo's heart, he is like a father.
Emperor Xu also remembered the scene at that time, and his handsome face was masculine and mature, showing a look of nostalgia. Pointing to a spicy duck palm on the table, he said, "Don't you like to eat this, specially prepared for you." ”
Wang Gonggong hurriedly took a delicate gold-painted small plate, clamped some with ivory chopsticks, and lightly placed it in Xiao Cuo's hand.
Xiao Cuo smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Huang." Then he ate unceremoniously.
The queen had a loving smile on her face, but the handkerchief in her hand was twisted.
Fu Ying lowered her eyes to eat, because Xiao Cuo specially arranged her beside him, she was keenly aware that the obvious hostility was like a needle, she didn't have such a strong feeling for a while, it seemed that after marrying Xiao Cuo, she lived a stable life for a while, and even the "beast nature" had degenerated. After this miscarriage and confinement, the feline is even more sensitive than before.
Fu Ying looked at the source of the hostility casually. The queen's smile is simply the interpretation of "Sister-in-law Zhang is like a mother". The expression of the second prince is no different, although the royal general is in line with the rules and does not say anything. However, today's family banquet didn't seem to be for the banquet, it was just for meeting and chatting with Xiao Cuo, everyone was not keen on eating, just got together for a symposium.
The second prince inadvertently looked at the eyes of Fu Yingying, looking at the beauty under the lamp, and the beauty has become more and more delicate in recent days, which really made his heart thump, as if he was swept by her beautiful eyes, and his heart was about to beat faster. Look at Xiao Cuo again, the heroic and domineering momentum is matched with a masculine and handsome appearance, as well as a casual and friendly appearance when talking to the emperor......
The jealousy in the heart of the second prince turned the river and the sea.
Everything was done properly that day, why didn't the evidence be found!
He really wanted to see if his father would treat him as leniently as before when he saw Xiao Cuo's rebellious hat.
"Brother Huang, we will leave the day after tomorrow."
Xiao Cuo's words made the hall silent.
The emperor frowned, blew his beard and glared: "Didn't you say that, you live in the palace with your family in peace, isn't it enough for you to play in a huge Kyoto city?" Although Xiangzhou is rich, you are not familiar with the place, you have nothing to think about what to do in the fiefdom? ”
"Brother Huang, I have been relying on you for so many years, and when I don't go to the fief when I reach the age, it is out of line, and many of the courtiers in the court have complained a lot. Besides, didn't my brother talk to you last time......"
"Say what a fart! You knelt in vain that night, you stubborn donkey! The Emperor stood up angrily.
The hall was silent again, and the palace people knelt down in a panic.
Punishment kneeling?
Fu Ying bit her lip lightly.
He didn't return that day, and said that the emperor would stay overnight, and when she came back, she felt that it couldn't be as simple as staying overnight.
He loves her, so he doesn't want her to know anything bad outside.
"Your Majesty, dissipate your anger." The queen came out at the right time to play a round, "You are really worry-free, your imperial brother said to let you stay, you will stay." The courtiers in the world are all the courtiers of your imperial brother, and the emperor's will tells you to stay, do they dare to say a word? This palace is your home, and all the people who live in it are your family, why, if you marry a daughter-in-law, you can't stay at home, and you have to learn from the people in the market to go out and live alone? ”
Although the queen's words were gentle and gentle, as if she was teaching her younger brother, the last sentence "If you marry a daughter-in-law, you can't stay at home" is extremely vicious. No one here is stupid, this is clearly an allusion to Fu Ying's move out of Kyoto.
The emperor's gaze really swept over Fu Ying.
Song was anxious, she knew that Xiao Cuo's decision to leave must have a reason, mostly to make Fu Ying's life comfortable, but how could her own daughter not know? Fu Ying would never make inappropriate demands on Xiao Cuo for the sake of his own comfort. It was the same in Dongsheng in the past, she would rather be wronged by herself. It will never cause her any trouble.
Song was about to open his mouth to argue for Fu Ying.
Xiao Cuo was one step ahead of her: "What did the imperial sister-in-law say about this, do you mean that worry-free is the kind of person who forgets his brother after marrying a daughter-in-law?" Won't that brother be ungrateful? The emperor's teachings and subordinates dare not forget for a moment, even if they want to go to the fiefdom, it is also a helpless move to abide by the laws of the ancestors, in order to cause less trouble to the imperial brother. ”
The queen originally wanted to wake up in front of the emperor and lead the fire to Fu Ying, she also knew that Xiao Cuo would inevitably protect her daughter-in-law, and when the goal was achieved, she felt that it didn't matter. It's just that Xiao's retort led her words away from Fu Ying. Instead, it became her sister-in-law to provoke their brotherhood.
It's just an ordinary person. Women don't have the anti-power to speak, let alone the imperial family. The queen's mother is the world's women, and she is an example for women in the world, doing things that provoke the relationship between her husband and uncle. But it is a big taboo for a woman to mess with her family.
The Queen's face flushed. Shaking his head to defend himself.
Xiao Chu smiled instead. Said: "But the younger brother knows that the imperial brother will not think so." Isn't it the royal brother? ”
The emperor snorted with a tense face.
That look is that he doesn't care about Xiao Mistakes and makes mistakes, and indulges to the extreme.
The queen was defeated.
It has been this way for many years. Xiao Cuo will always press her son's head, and she will back down even if she has a face. The emperor spoiled him to the point of lawlessness, and even sometimes to favor him for no reason. If they are not a broken relationship, how many brothers have been in the imperial family since ancient times, especially those who are in the emperor's family, can achieve this level?
The queen was depressed, but she still had to keep smiling.
The emperor thought for a long time before he spoke, "That's it, you think like this, the imperial brother also knows what you mean." ”
is a pun, and everyone's hearts are like mirrors.
Xiao smiled and said nothing.
The emperor said: "It's okay to go to the fiefdom, you have to write letters frequently, and when your younger brothers and sisters have good news, you must return to Beijing to give birth." The conditions in Kyoto must be much better than in Xiangzhou, and the Tai Hospital also has the best daughters and holy hands, and the midwives are also the most experienced. Don't worry, this is my bottom line. ”
Xiao Cuo had mixed feelings in his heart, nodded with a smile, and said, "Okay, it's all up to the emperor's brother." ”
"What is it that depends on me? If you are really obedient, I won't let you go, and you will still go! To put it bluntly, you just have a lot of fun, and you want to go to Xiangzhou to enjoy the mountains and rivers, right?! ”
Xiao Cuo heard this, "The royal brother knows it, and he wants to say it." ”
The queen and the second prince both laughed at the scene, and the atmosphere was very relaxed for a while.
Both the Song family and the Liao family secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If you secretly want to go to Xiangzhou, go to Xiangzhou, leave Kyoto City and leave the emperor's side, and you can get into less trouble, lest the queen want to be embarrassed by Xiao and Fu Ying all day long. When they go to Xiangzhou, they don't have to be restrained like this.
After dinner, the palace maids rushed in to serve everyone with tea cups, gargles, brocade and other things, and Xiao Cuo said: "It's getting late, brother Huang, brother will leave." ”
"What are you busy with, let's stay tonight, isn't it the day after tomorrow that you're leaving? Are you in such a hurry to go home? ”
Xiao Cuo hesitated.
If you refuse to ask to stay overnight, it will be too obvious to refuse. is already leaving, and the emperor also nodded, so I'm afraid it will be too revealing like that.
But Fu Ying's medicine for post-dinner conditioning was useless.
"In this case, the prince will stay, and the concubine will go back to the house with her mother and grandmother first, and the matter of leaving the day after tomorrow has not yet been arranged." Fu Ying proposed.
Xiao Cuo became more and more uneasy. She lost her child, was in a bad mood, and was not in good health, so she had to leave early, and he always felt unreasonable when he was not by her side.
Fu Ying didn't give Xiao Cuo a chance to say more: "Don't worry, the princess will go back before the palace gate is locked." ”
Fu Ying, Song and Liao saluted the emperor and queen together.
After a polite exchange between the two sides, the emperor instructed Archer to take the people of Jinglongwei to escort Fu Ying and his party back to the house.
Xiao Cuo hurriedly said: "Why don't my brother send my mother-in-law and them back first, and I'm rushing back." ”
The emperor's eyes widened, and he hated iron but not steel: "If you say one more word, I will kick you out!" In the imperial city at the feet of the Son of Heaven, can't my Jinglongwei and the guards around you protect a few female dependents? What do you have to worry about! Why can't I see that you are still a daughter-in-law fan before! ”
Xiao Cuo didn't dare to say more.
No matter how much she said, she was afraid of causing trouble to Fu Ying, originally she came from afar, and she was reluctantly named a princess by a small country in order to cling to a big country. In the eyes of Emperor Zhou, her identity is not enough, not to mention that there is a Dongsheng behind her who is rich in war horses and good at fighting.
If Dongsheng has a wider land and a larger population, don't say that there is no need to tie up with a big country, that is, they also have to look at Dongsheng differently, but unfortunately not now.
Xiao Cuo nodded helplessly.
Fu Ying and the Song family got on their shoulders, and were escorted all the way outside by Gonggong Liu and others, and after changing to the carriage, they arrived in front of the palace gate, and then changed into the carriage they were riding in.
Fu Ying shared a car with Song and Liao, and when the curtain was about to be lowered, Song's eyes suddenly stared at a certain place outside and did not move.
Fu Ying followed her gaze, but saw Gu Yun, who was dressed in a dark yellow flying fish suit, carrying an embroidered spring knife cross-body, and arrived with a team of elite dragon guards. The eyes of the two sides intertwined, and they were silent for a while.
After a long time, Gu Yun rode his horse to the carriage, turned over and dismounted, and made a big salute: "See the princess, Mrs. Wuluohou, Mrs. Liao." ”
Fu Ying said lightly: "No courtesy, let's go." ”
"Yes." Gu Yun got up, jumped on the horse in a dashing manner, and ordered to set off. He and Archer rode their horses on both sides of the carriage.
Song's mood was extremely heavy, but Liao could think of it, and persuaded in a low voice: "Each has its own position, each is its own master, are you still holding on to the past?" Now that you have found a good son-in-law and live a good life, and the prince cherishes her so wholeheartedly, what else do you not be satisfied with. Let go of the past grievances, you just remember that she is just sad for yourself. ”
"That's what my mother said. I actually understand these truths. It's just that when I saw him, I inevitably recalled the time when my lord was alive...... When I think of those pasts, I can't help but feel sad. ”
Thinking of his son-in-law, the Liao family was also very embarrassed, such an excellent person, but he was jealous of his talents, and he was about to continue to persuade him, but Fu Ying snorted lightly.
"There seems to be someone out there!"
At the same time, the sound of the blade coming out of the sheath came from time to time, the carriage stopped suddenly, and Gu Yun asked loudly: "Who is coming?" At the feet of the Son of Heaven, he dared to block the royal convoy! ”
Song and Liao lifted the corner of the window screen and looked out, and saw that in the quiet and secluded alley at night, under the light of the dead wind lanterns hanging on the carriage, six masked men in black costumes of the enemy untied their silver and cold steel knives from behind.
Liao gritted his teeth, put down the curtain and pulled Fu Ying and said, "Don't be afraid, my grandmother is here." ”
As soon as the words fell, I heard the sharp clashing of blades and the sound of fighting outside. (To be continued......)
