There was a deathly silence in the living room, and Ah Jiu blamed the eldest princess several times in person, and this time it hit the eldest princess very hard.

The recent series of twists and turns made the eldest princess haggard, and the eldest princess's face turned red for a moment, and turned white for a moment, and her eyebrows showed a look of fatigue and depression.

Ah Jiu sat directly on the chair angrily, and he couldn't be polite to the stubborn eldest princess, let alone feel sorry for her.

"I don't know what you think, you have been beautiful enough over the years, one person is above ten thousand people, and even sometimes the emperor lets you. The emperor's accession to the throne is naturally different from that of the emperor. Although he respects you, he may not be as tolerant and kind to you as the Emperor. ”

"How dare he blame me?!" The eldest princess has been guaranteed by Emperor Zhaowu to make her the eldest princess. "Among the many princes and princes, he is the closest to me today, and I rescued him from the hands of the imperial brother back then."

Seeing that Ah Jiu was silent, the eldest princess continued to praise herself and the Mu family: "It's not me and Yanyu, do you think that your grandfather alone can stabilize the capital?" Do you think it wasn't me who ordered the emperor and Tianyang to go directly to the capital through the Datong Fortress? Yes, the crown prince is not qualified to ascend to the throne if he participates in the rebellion, and most of the princes accompanying him are controlled by Tianyang, don't forget, there are still princes in the imperial capital, if I support one of them, there may not be no possibility of fighting. ”

"Huh." There was an indescribable mockery in Ah Jiu's laughter.

"What are you laughing at!" The eldest princess glared angrily, "It is precisely because Tianyang is the biological son of Zhaohua and the fourth child that my Mu family supports him instead." The emperor plans to only crown Zhaohua as a concubine, does he still have me in his eyes? Is there a Mu family? ”

Ah Jiu picked up the teacup unhurriedly. Leisurely admiring the texture of the tea cup, the items used by the eldest princess are excellent, and this set of tea cups should be the top products of the official kiln.

"I'm not here to treat you to tea."

Ah Jiu raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Squinted at the eldest princess, who was filled with righteous indignation as if she had been greatly insulted, and asked with a smile: "Do you want to go to war?" ”

“…… War? The eldest princess was taken aback by Ah Jiu, and then she was annoyed that she was threatened by a junior, and shook her hand and said angrily: "War? War with the Mu family? Do you want the empire to split and let the traitor Lu Jiang succeed? I see that your actions outside the Saiwai and the imperial capital are in order, why are you confused this time? ”

"The only heir of the emperor, Ying Mu, has the blood of the Mu family in his body!"

This is one of the eldest princess's hole cards, no matter what Zhaohua has done to her biological son. In the empire that governs the country with filial piety, Ying Mu can't be ruthless to his biological mother.

"To tell you the truth, if Lu Jiang didn't let the changer tell the truth. The Mu family is now up and down, but I'm afraid that they have become prisoners. Do you think that Marquis Yu will not leave a back hand to guard against the Mu family's power in the Gyeonggi region? He has calculated ninety-nine steps, Your Highness, you have been supporting the abolished prince, how could he not know. ”

It was precisely because of Marquis Yu's background that the eldest princess immediately turned to support King Qi. In the past, most of the Mu family's forces were invested in the crown prince.

"You should be most glad you are. Regardless of whether Marquis Yu admits it or not, he has the blood of Lord Zhaohua in his body. He is indeed the only heir of the emperor, and there is an eighty percent chance that he will inherit the throne in the future. This is a responsibility that he is no longer willing to and cannot shirk, and the Emperor Taishang believes that the empire will be better handed over to him. ”

The eldest princess's face gradually softened, and she was frightened by Ah Jiu, and she could hear that Ying Mu was still worried about the Mu family. Even the powerful eldest princess has to admit that the Mu family is not Yu Hou's opponent, and he may ruin the Mu family.

Ah Jiu's words changed. "Don't be too relieved, how many emperors in history hated their relatives the most. Among them, there are many maternal ancestors who supported his accession to the throne. Yu Hou has today's achievements, he has not received a trace of the grace of the Mu family, and his biological mother, Lord Zhaohua, and you have only pain for him. He is very assertive and domineering, and even His Majesty can't restrain and influence his decision, His Highness thinks he cares about his biological mother's family who has long been abandoned? ”

"If you persist in your mistakes, Yu Hou is the happiest." A hint of regret flashed in Ah Jiu's eyes, "He doesn't have to show mercy to the Mu family's subordinates, and he doesn't have to care about the relationship with the county lord." It is meaningless for you to let the county lord fight last outside the fortress, and you will also cut off the vitality of the Mu family with your own hands. ”

The eldest princess sat on the chair with a pale face, "You...... He is not afraid of imperial ......"

"He once used the name of the king of Hades, and forced the traitor to flee back to his hometown in Dongliao, do you still think that he will think of the common people and wronged himself in order to stabilize the country? To tell the truth, even if the world is in chaos, he has the ability to reunify, and no one can threaten him at that time, and he will be more able to do whatever he wants. ”

"He never wanted to be a hero like Mu Wangye, and the path of traitor is the most suitable for him."

The eldest princess looked horrified and muttered, "He is actually such a person? Unscrupulous means to achieve the goal, regardless of the safety of the world, he is too scheming, too talented, once he brings disaster to the world, who can restrain him? No way...... No, I can't watch the good empire fall to him. ”

"The time that belonged to His Highness has passed." Ah Jiu revealed the facts more cruelly, "There are talents from all generations of the country, and they have been leading for hundreds of years. If you continue to obses, not only will you not be able to get better, but what you value will also be ruined. ”

"You ......" the eldest princess pointed at Ah Jiu with her index finger, "You dare to taunt me, okay, I want to see what you can do to me!" ”

The door of the living room opened, and the wind rolled in with the fragrance of flowers, and a thin shadow was printed on the green bricks at the door, "Mother." ”

"Zhaohua." The eldest princess couldn't help but say, "How can you go to the ground?" Go back and rest. ”

Although the county lord of Zhaohua survived, most of his body collapsed, his face was pale, his cheeks were sunken, and he no longer lived up to the brightness of the year, his emaciated body leaned on the sturdy grandmother, and said weakly: "I heard that Ah Jiu is here, I came to see her." ”

"You go back first, and I'll let Ah Jiu come over to accompany you later."

"Mother." Lord Zhaohua shook his head, "Don't lie to me, when can we force Ah Jiu to do what he doesn't want to do." If I don't come, Ah Jiu will never step into my door for half a step, not to mention that you quarreled with Ah Jiu again, and she has even more reason to brush her sleeves away. ”

"That's right, Ah Jiu."

After saying a long paragraph, the county lord of Zhaohua was panting, and his forehead was drenched in sweat. A few simple words were a heavy burden on her.

The last thing Ah Jiu wants to face is the county lord of Zhaohua, hate and pity, or hate has the upper hand.

used to resent her for her vicious treatment of Ying Tianyang. Now she hates her for letting Ying Tianyang fall into such a situation where she is not embarrassed or embarrassed, and hates her for being unconsciously deceived by Lu Jiang for a lifetime, which caused today's tragedy.

The eldest princess could only order the servants to move the soft couch and help the county lord of Zhaohua to lie on the soft cushion, "Your relationship with the fourth child is not a day or two, don't listen to Ah Jiu Hu, I will let the emperor marry you in a beautiful manner." ”

"You have been wronged for all these years, and I must not see you wronged again."

"You should go to Lu Jiang to avenge the county lord. And not to say to me, to persecute Your Majesty. Ah Jiu lowered his eyelids, "The county lord has been beautiful all these years." In the Lu family, Lu Jiang loves her very much, the Lu family is kind and filial to the son, and the husband and wife are harmonious. The lord of the county has to be filial to his son. I really don't see how wronged she is. ”

If it weren't for the cruel truth, Lu Jiang would not be able to deceive the county lord of Zhaohua for the rest of her life, she can be called a big winner in life!

Lord Zhaohua held the eldest princess's hand and stopped her mother from speaking, with a smile on her lips but a downright misery: "As you said, I have indeed enjoyed all the glory and wealth, and I have been dreaming for thirty years, Ah Jiu." I can't tell if it's a dream or a reality? ”

Two lines of clear tears flowed down his cheeks, and the eyes of the county lord of Zhaohua opened wide. The tears seemed to be out of her control, the eldest princess hugged her distressedly, her eyes were moist, her heart was like a knife, and she looked at Ah Jiu with a pleading in her eyes.

Ah Jiu never looked up.

Ruthless girl, the eldest princess scolded Ah Jiu in her heart, "Zhaohua, everything has passed, Tianyang will not deny you." ”

"Does he recognize me?" Zhaohua smiled more desolate than crying, and his voice was low and depressed, "How can I have the face to be his biological mother!" I have never given him the slightest bit of maternal love, and the only thing I can do is to stop embarrassing him. ”

"Zhaohua."

"Mother, I am already very good for the concubine, Your Majesty does not dislike my pickled and broken body, I am already very grateful to him. Empress...... I didn't even think about it, let alone insult Your Majesty. ”

Zhaohua stroked the eldest princess's silver-white sideburns, "The person Your Majesty really cares about is Liu Ji back then, he only treats me as a playmate, cousin." ”

The eldest princess spilled tears in distress, creating evil, "Your second brother doesn't recognize me, your third brother complains about me, and the eldest son is a person who has no ability to take care of things, and now you are also ...... Misfortune and pain, I clearly promised your father that you would be glorious and happy for the rest of your life. ”

"Don't cry, mother, I don't blame you, all the consequences are because I'm too paranoid, it's not wrong for me to dislike the concubine, and it's not wrong to hate the rival who gave birth to a child for Lu Jiang, but I shouldn't be angry at the innocent concubine. Lu Jiang and Mrs. Lu provoked several times, if I put my mind right and didn't force Tianyang, he wouldn't deny me and hate me. ”

As long as she thought of her son's suffering and abuse, her heart felt as if she had been delayed, and the pain was numb, but the suffocating pain tormented her again and again.

Ah Jiu raised her eyes and saw that although the county lord of Zhaohua was sick and weak, her eyes were as clear as if she had washed away the prosperity, she finally woke up, but the price she paid was so heavy, so heavy that it could drive normal people crazy.

However, the awakened Zhaohua County Lord will make their couple's life much better.

"I'm grateful to God, thank you Liu Ji, otherwise how could I still live?" The county lord of Zhaohua said to Ah Jiu: "You go back to Cheng Bing, and Zhaohua thanks Lord Longen." ”

Holding down the eldest princess's arm again, Zhaohua said in a low voice: "Mother, King Qi is already the emperor, and he treats the Mu family well because he remembers the old love, and we can only be grateful." ”

"You don't have to go into the palace, just stay with me in the palace. It's a big deal, we don't pay attention to anything, hand over everything in the Mu family, I don't believe that Your Majesty can still destroy our mother. ”

"With my mother, I'm at ease, what should I do?" Lord Zhaohua frowned slightly, "I owe him so much that I can't pay it off in my life, and if I let him be a son of an unknown mother, I won't be able to close my eyes when I die." ”

"Didn't Ah Jiu say that he could find another mother?" The eldest princess snorted coldly, "People are very capable, so I don't need you to worry about it." ”

"The emperor can find a mother for Tianyang, but I'm so selfish, although I can't stand him, I still don't want him to be recognized in someone else's name. He's so outstanding, so proud, he's got everything I want from my son, and he's even better than I could hope for, I'm ...... I can't bear him. ”

The lord of Zhaohua County coughed for a long time because he said too much, and it was only after drinking half a cup of throat-clearing and lung-moistening pear soup that he got better, "By my mother's side, I can't see him in my life, and only when I enter the palace can I see him from time to time." Mother, I beg you, don't stop me. ”

The eldest princess's lips were closed, her forehead was held in pain, how could the humble Zhaohua County Lord look like her own daughter?

"If you continue to be stubborn, the children around you will stay away." Ah Jiu said softly: "Parents can't force their children who have grown up, you are always domineering and force them to follow the path you have chosen, but you choose, to be honest, you are really not very clever." ”

The eldest princess shook twice as if she had been hammered, and asked confusedly, "It's all my fault?" ”

"Lord Zhaohua, their lives are still long, discuss who is more wrong, it is better to live a good life in the future, and I hope that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess can learn a lesson, and stop arranging the lives of your children and grandchildren."

Ah Jiu can be regarded as interceding for Mu Yanyu, after all, Mu Yanyu's pursuit in this life will definitely not be in line with the eldest princess's wishes, "The tragedy of the Mu family's descendants is enough, don't create a new tragedy." ”

"Please also ask the county lord to take care of his body, His Majesty will carry out the concubine ceremony after March, Your Majesty has said that you will not let any woman press on the head of the county lord, the back of the harem is vacant, and you are the only concubine."

The eldest princess was really a little depressed, why didn't she say this earlier? Although he suffered a little loss in his reputation, it is entirely possible for Zhaohua to be promoted to queen in the future.

Ah Jiu, this girl deliberately made her anxious?

"You said that Tianyang is still possible......" Zhaohua looked at Ah Jiu who walked out of the door, knowing the result, but still couldn't bear to confirm it, full of hope that a miracle would happen, "Recognize me?" ”

Ah Jiu turned his back to the Zhaohua County Lord and paused for a while, "You'd better think about revenge on the Lu family first." ”

Haven't the Lu family's group been caught? Find something to do for the county lord of Zhaohua, and it also saves her from thinking about it, "The culprit, you don't have to be merciful, people who don't know...... It is better to be according to the law. ”

Lu Jiang rebelled, committing the great crime of killing the nine clans, according to the law, the Lu family had to be beheaded, but the Emperor Taishang was still in Lu Jiang's hands, and Emperor Zhaowu would not kill the Lu family.

However, for the Lu family, death is the most painful, and they may not be guilty of living alive.

*****

Emperor Zhaowu worshiped heaven and earth at the Temple of Heaven, proclaimed the world that he was the second emperor of the empire, and at the same time read out the text of the crusade against the rebels of Lujiang and the return of the Emperor Taishang.

Surrounded by courtiers to worship their ancestors, the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military, honorable clans, and representatives of the wealthy gentry and common people all prostrate on the blue brick ground of the Taimiao, waiting for Emperor Zhaowu to promulgate his will.

Emperor Zhaowu's eyes were solemn, "Tianyang, come forward." ”

"Yes." Ying Tianyang got up from the forefront of the courtiers, walked in front of Emperor Zhaowu in a few steps, and knelt on one knee: "The minister is here." ”

What a bad thing to hear! Minister, minister!

Emperor Zhaowu's resentful eyes flashed, and the dragon crown and dragon robe unfolded the holy decree that had been carried for a long time, "The prince wins the precious character and has great military achievements, adhering to the legacy of the ancestors and ancestors, respecting the will of the emperor, and ordering him to inherit the prince of Qi, and admire this." ”

"The emperor's ......" is not easy to fool, and he immediately understands the trickiness of it.

"If you refuse to accept the order, we will be so stiff." Emperor Zhaowu handed over the holy decree, looked down at his son's surprised look, and the corners of his mouth hooked: "You can do it, remember to call me dad!" ”

Ying Tianyang can't go away, throw his father who has always hurt him in the Taimiao, so that Emperor Zhaowu's first holy decree will become the laughing stock of the world, who gives the emperor an idea, it is really just right.

Emperor Zhaowu was extremely patient, and all the officials raised their heads and quietly looked at Ying Tianyang, many people had envy and jealousy in their eyes, and they didn't do it for the prince, what kind of situation is this, they only hated that their mother was not a woman of Emperor Zhaowu.

“…… The son-in-law received the order and thanked his father and Emperor Longen. ”

If it is the crown prince, he will definitely run, he will not respond, the prince of Chengqi has not forced his bottom line, there is always hope of getting out, exhausting the world, he also wants Emperor Zhaowu to have another biological son.

PS That's the case between the male protagonist and Zhaohua.,With the personality of the male protagonist, it's never possible to get close to Zhaohua.,It's unlikely to forgive her.。 didn't mean to whitewash Zhaohua, but this result is more in line with the character design, Zhaohua is too extreme, too concerned about being a good mother, and everyone knows the result. (To be continued......)
