Chapter 394: Connivance
Empress Dowager Xu felt that Xiao Zhan was terrible, why didn't Empress Dowager Zheng feel so.
She looked at Xiao Zhan, looking at his upright figure, like a thousand-year-old sword, hiding its edge, and waiting for the day it opened, how radiant it should be.
She knew that Xiao Laoguo had cultivated Xiao Zhan very well, which made her a little frightened.
Even if there was too much helplessness back then, she still clearly remembered what Old Duke Xiao said when he was angry, she and the emperor could hurt his daughter for the sake of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but the Great Zhou Jiangshan they liked would always be surnamed Xiao one day!
She and the emperor owe too much to the Xiao Guogong Mansion, and they can't repay the much.
Empress Dowager Zheng felt that the corners of her eyes were a little sour, and there was a smile in her eyes, which was a smile full of helplessness.
Xiao Lao Guogong's temperament, that is to do what he says.
Da Zhou is the brainchild of the former emperor, how can she sit idly by, but what can she do?
Empress Dowager Zheng lowered her brows, and after a while, she said to the emperor, "The mourning family remembers that before the emperor was made the crown prince, there was a mansion in Kyoto, which was close to the palace and not far from the Xiao Guo Mansion, so it was better to reward it to Zhan'er." ”
The queen and Concubine Zheng were taken aback when they heard this, and hurriedly turned their heads to look at the emperor.
The mansion is extraordinary, and no matter which prince it is given to, it has an extraordinary significance.
It is almost obvious that the prince will follow the same path as the emperor, and after living in this mansion, the next step is the East Palace.
Empress Dowager Zheng mentioned that the emperor would reward the mansion to her son, how could this be?
Whether it is the queen or Concubine Zheng, they all want that mansion.
The emperor was also slightly surprised by Empress Dowager Zheng's suggestion, he hesitated for a moment, and then agreed, "Then I will reward that mansion to Xiao Zhan." ”
Empress Dowager Xu was puzzled, but she would not object, she tried her best to win over Xiao Zhan, she smiled, "This is just right, it can not only show the emperor's attention to the righteous son to the civil and military officials, but also save the ministers from speculating about who will live in that mansion." ”
The emperor rewarded Xiao Zhan's mansion, and by the way, he also rewarded a bunch of gold, silver and jade.
After the emperor rewarded him, he was the Empress Dowager Zheng.
The prince's righteous son, the righteous grandson of the Empress Dowager Zheng, is naturally also the righteous grandson of the Empress Dowager Xu, and her reward will not be less.
As for the queen, she didn't dare to treat Xiao Zhan as a righteous son, and sent a bunch of things to congratulate.
As for Xiao Zhan, since he has been rewarded, then he will still receive it all, and it will not be too much.
An Rong stood there, already stunned.
Although she never felt that making money was hard, it was so easy that even she was jealous.
But thinking that Xiao Zhan's money was hers, An Rong was happy again.
After this reward, the second prince and the third prince stepped in to greet the emperor and the two queen mothers.
The queen was a little depressed, but her face was full of smiles, she glanced at An Rong, looked at the third prince gently, and asked, "You go to the Wu'an Hou Mansion, the fifth girl is in good health?" ”
An Rong raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this, and she also wondered why the queen glanced at her before looking at the third prince, it turned out that the third prince went to the Wu'an Hou Mansion.
I don't know what the queen means by saying this at this time, she wants to sue her that the third prince will marry Shen Anyu, and the Wu'an Hou Mansion will be tied to the three princes, and she, as the daughter of the Wu An Hou Mansion, can't she drag her father's hind legs?
An Rong thought, a sneer flashed in his eyes.
Shen Anyu can't control her father, let alone her.
The three princes are handsome, and their eyebrows are similar to the emperor's three points, and they are very favored by the emperor.
He stepped forward to greet An, and then said, "Fifth Miss Shen's body and bones are much better, but she is not in a good mood. ”
The queen was surprised, "Why are you in a bad mood?" ”
The third prince sighed softly, "The Seventh Young Master of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion has passed away from illness. ”
In a word, like a bomb exploded in An Rong's heart, she suddenly raised her eyes.
Shen Anxiao is dead?
An Rong suddenly raised his eyes, a little startled by the queen.
The queen raised her eyebrows slightly, An Rong's shock undoubtedly revealed that she didn't know about Shen Anxiao's death, the queen was puzzled, how could she not know about such a big thing?
The queen took a fancy to the power behind the Wu'an Hou Mansion, so she asked a few more words, "How could the Seventh Young Master of the Wu'an Hou Mansion die of illness, what disease did he have?" ”
The third prince shook his head lightly, "I heard that after the death of the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion of Wu'an, he had a nightmare, it had rained for ten days in a row, and his body was not very good, not because of the marriage of the fourth girl of Shen, the whole mind of the Hou Mansion of Wu'an was preparing for the wedding banquet, and the people were in a hurry to join in the fun, so they ignored his ......." ”
In short, Shen Anxiao's death was ignored by the Marquis of Wu'an.
Among them, An Rong's marriage distracted the attention of the elders and directly led to Shen Anxiao's death.
In this way, the fault is pressed on An Rong's marriage, and An Rong is angry.
It was the eldest lady who cuckolded her father, so that her grandmother had nowhere to vent, and she was very annoyed when she heard Shen Anxiao's words, and besides, the maids who served Shen Anxiao were carefully selected by the eldest lady before her death, and they were her henchmen.
They don't care for Shen Anxiao wholeheartedly, how can they blame her?!
To be honest, An Rong didn't want Shen Anxiao to die, she also wanted to use Shen Anxiao to catch the second master to take the bait, but now this bait is gone.
An Rong sulked and didn't speak, and in the eyes of a cadre, it was sad.
A concubine sighed, "Since the beginning of the year, there has not been a mansion in Kyoto like the Wu'an Hou Mansion, one after another, I thought that the fourth girl Shen would marry and break through the evil spirit of the Wu'an Hou Mansion, who wants to ......." ”
Pity that child, it's gone.
In the dignified Wu'an Hou Mansion, the concubine broke her leg, the young son died, and there were a lot of tribulations.
The queen looked at An Rong twice, and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, this draft is only a few days away, and the concubine wants to take Shen Wu's girl into the palace first to relax, she is not in good health, and the concubine is afraid that she will be suffocated." ”
The emperor did not object, and the queen decided so.
The emperor felt that something was wrong, so he planned to go back to the imperial study to deal with the government affairs, but the father-in-law outside hurriedly rushed in and handed over a bamboo tube, "Your Majesty, report urgently at the border gate!" ”
"Bring it!" The emperor's face changed.
The little father-in-law stepped forward, and the father-in-law Xu hurriedly took the bamboo tube and handed it to the emperor.
The secret report bamboo tube is Gonggong Xu, who is serving the emperor closely, and he can't open it first and then hand it to the emperor.
The emperor opened the seal and poured out the urgent report from inside.
After sweeping his eyes, the emperor's face turned dark.
Empress Dowager Zheng was worried when she saw it, "Your Majesty, what happened to the border pass?" ”
The emperor's urgent report was tightened, "Dongyan has sent troops to my Great Zhou!" ”
Empress Dowager Zheng was taken aback, "How can you send troops well." ”
The emperor stepped on the red carpet, glanced at Xiao Zhan, and said, "You go to the imperial study with me, I have something to ask you." ”
said that he went to the imperial study to ask, but in fact, when he left the Yongshou Palace, the emperor asked.
"I ask you, did you really kidnap Princess Beilie Chaotian to Great Zhou?" The emperor asked solemnly.
An Rong was a little stunned when she heard this, she looked at Xiao Zhan blankly, her eyes widening wider and wider.
Xiao Zhan hummed lightly.
The emperor suddenly became angry, "Okay, what are you doing kidnapping Princess Beilie?" ”
The emperor had a headache.
An Rong felt that his brain had turned a little, "Didn't Dongyan send troops to my Great Zhou?" Why is it about Princess Beilie again? ”
The emperor was a little dizzy, An Rong didn't ask, he hadn't reacted yet, something was wrong.
Xiao Zhan kidnapped Princess Beilie, it stands to reason that Beilie was in a hurry, why was Dongyan angry first?
The prince of Dongyan personally led the troops, and the soldiers came to the city of Da Zhou, and he asked Da Zhou to personally send Princess Beilie to the border pass, otherwise they could only meet each other.
"What the hell is going on?" The emperor asked.
Xiao Zhan glanced at An Rong, he saw that the curiosity in An Rong's eyes was more anxious than the emperor, so he returned to the emperor.
The matter started when he was ordered to go to Beilie to rescue the prince of Jingbei Hou.
On that day, the prince of Dongyan and the princess of the real dynasty took advantage of the threat of the prince of Jingbei Hou and entered Beilie smoothly.
Who would have thought, when I entered the imperial city, I saw that it was the team of Princess Beilie getting married.
At that time, the princess was really angry, and she wanted to rob the sedan chair regardless of it.
The prince of Dongyan spoiled women excessively, and he really asked him to rob the sedan chair, and he really went to rob it.
Xu is no one thought that someone would dare to kidnap the princess and the princess Mo.
This was originally the idea of the prince of Dongyan and the princess of Chaotan, and it had nothing to do with the prince of Jingbei.
But they entered the imperial city together, that is, they were one, and those officers and soldiers were like a group of mad dogs, regardless of it, they would kill them if they caught them.
The prince of Jingbei Hou has no luck, he is already a grasshopper on the same line as Prince Dongyan, and if he doesn't help, it means death.
He was well versed in the way of using soldiers, and in line with the spirit of capturing the thief and capturing the king first, he got into the sedan chair at once, put a knife against the neck of the princess of Chaotan, forced back the officers and soldiers of Beilie, and then began his escape journey in Beilie.
Robbing the sedan chair and kidnapping the princess of Chaotian is not what the prince of Jingbei wants, and when he hijacks people and avoids the officers and soldiers, he agrees to send people back, he doesn't want to be a woman, the two countries are at war, and the people are not happy.
But the prince of Dongyan was unwilling, he wanted to take Gu Qingyan and Princess Chaotian back to Dongyan.
Just when he was out of Beilie, Shangguan Hao, the prince of King Mo, chased after him, and there was evidence from the dowry maid of Princess Chaotian that Lian Xuan pointed a knife at Princess Chaotian's neck.
Shangguan Hao was angry and grabbed Lian Xuan with his bare hands, because with the help of Prince Dongyan, Shangguan Hao didn't dare to kill Lian Xuan, but it didn't mean that the matter was over, Shangguan Hao kicked him into a small shop selling tofu on the street.
It was this kick that made things change.
Lian Xuan, who was already innocent, was really monstrous this time.
Originally, he wanted to secretly let Princess Chaotian go, but if he didn't kick this humiliating kick back, he would never want to marry Princess Chaotian again in his life.
What gave Lian Xuan such great faith was not only anger, but also Xiao Zhan's timely arrival.
Just when Xiao Zhan and Shangguan Hao were fighting, Lian Xuan rescued Princess Chaotian from the knife of Prince Dongyan and went to the side of the secret guard.
Only then did Shangguan Hao know that he had misunderstood Lian Xuan.
But let him stand there stupidly and kick Lian Xuan, it is impossible.
He didn't want to be small, Lian Xuan didn't want to be so cheap to him, he wanted him to come to Da Zhou in person to apologize!
In this way, Lian Xuan brought Princess Chaotian back to Da Zhou, and Shangguan Hao went to hunt down Prince Dongyan.
At this time, the soldiers of the prince of Dongyan came to the city, which meant that Shangguan Hao's pursuit was not successful, and he successfully returned to Dongyan.
The emperor listened to Xiao Zhan's words, and his brows furrowed tightly.
He knew that Xiao Zhan couldn't do such a bizarre kidnapping, and sure enough!
The emperor was a little broken, just because he was kicked, he couldn't bear the bottom of his heart, so he kidnapped his daughter-in-law and didn't pay it back?
"You're so indulgent to him?" The emperor was a little angry.
Xiao Zhan's brows moved, and he glanced at An Rong.
An Rong suddenly bit his lip and was silent.
Xiao Zhan's connivance is not only conniving at Lian Xuan, but also conniving at her.
It was she who repeatedly asked him to kidnap the princess.
He didn't want to, but he still pushed the boat. R1152
