Chapter 215

The emperor ordered: "Concubine Mei is crazy, hurry up and stop her mouth!" ”

Concubine Mei struggled desperately, and the end was no better than that of the previous Prince and Princess Cheng, but she was twisted a few times by the palace people and pinched her face, which was useless except for making herself hurt. Look at the latest novel-_-!Le-_-!Wen-_-!Xiao-_-!Say-_-!Net(http://) Baidu search She looked at Xiao Zhan with resentful eyes, if the eye wind can turn into a knife, I am afraid that Xiao Zhan has been pierced with a thousand holes!

"Send it back, and give me a glass of wine." The emperor waved his hand, and no longer looked at this former favorite concubine, anyone who participated in the persecution of the prince deserved to die! It's just ......, turning his head to look at Xiao Zhan, the Shen Criminal Division has already found clues, pointing to Yongshou Palace, Lao Qi is being dragged down by the Qin family.

But I can't deal with my biological mother, and I don't want to make a big deal out of it.

At present, it is alarming the guards, and the Shen Punishment Division is being used, and a noble concubine is about to die, if it starts a fuss, and is instigated by the courtiers, Lao Qi will no longer have the possibility of living. I had to find an excuse to calm the situation, and then spoke, "Sixth, this palace maid looks quite smart, since she has an eye for you, I will reward her to you." ”

I am old, my heart is soft, and I don't want to see my sons die in front of me one by one.

Xiao Duo didn't say a word, and simply said, "Yes, the son of the minister is in charge." ”

Even when Xiao Zhan withdrew from the door and passed by him, his expression was still extremely peaceful, as if he was just a palace maid who had been rewarded by his father, and nothing else. He hooked the corners of his mouth in his heart, there are so many princes, each of them is actually not too much, only the obedient prince is the most satisfied son in the eyes of the emperor-

In order to satisfy his father, he had to endure.

The main hall was quiet, only the emperor and Xiao Duo father and son were left quietly facing each other, and the faint agarwood fragrance wafted out from the Boshan furnace, and the dark fragrance hit people, and the silence of the larger hall added a silent silence.

After a long time, the emperor spoke, "The sixth, the seventh is the flesh and blood of the father after all. ”

Xiao Duo hurriedly said: "Of course, he is also a brother of his son." ”

"Nope." The emperor shook his head, "I want you to promise one thing, after a hundred years, as long as Xiao Zhan does not take the initiative to rebel, he will not be allowed to rehash the old accounts and settle them with him." After a pause, "Not only Lao Qi, but also any of your brothers, your mother-in-law, can you do these ......?" ”

Xiao Duo raised his head slowly, his mood was simply indescribable, "Father ......"——

The emperor's words are undoubtedly announcing his position as the prince.

The father used the future throne as a favor, and used his current power as a prestige, and he was rewarded with grace and prestige, and he wanted to make a promise to treat other brothers well.

This didn't make Xiao Duo hesitate for too long, because he didn't have to hesitate.

He lifted his robe and knelt down, and swore to the sky, "The emperor and queen of heaven are on the earth......

******

"That palace maid already makes people look good." Xiao Duo said lightly.

Feng Luan couldn't help but be silent for a while.

This incident actually repeats the trajectory of the previous life.

The difference is that the emperor showed mercy to himself in the face of his grandfather and made him a wife, while the palace maid was just a palace maid. It's just that the emperor wants to calm down the situation and turn a big thing into a small matter, so he handed over the palace maid to Xiao Duo and asked him to find an opportunity to execute the palace maid.

The emperor's attitude was that the palace maid was rewarded to his son by herself, and naturally there was no conspiracy, let alone the secret of the palace of the prince and the concubine jointly designing another prince. It's not that this matter can be concealed or not, and I'm not afraid of speculation, but the emperor's attitude is so ,—— disagree, so let's touch the emperor's scales first!

Therefore, the court and the inner palace unanimously remained silent on this matter.

As for the capital, there were no officials to challenge the emperor's authority, and the people naturally couldn't listen to it, so a palace struggle only caused a small ripple under the emperor's gentle and drizzly means, and then dissipated.

Everyone had to sigh, there was a sudden death of a noble concubine in the palace, pitiful, the blessing is too thin.

The next day, the emperor returned to the court earlier than expected.

When the officials of the Criminal Department presented the file of Xiao Zhan's corruption case, the emperor was silent for a while,—— compared with the previous life experienced by Feng Luan, at this moment, the emperor has not yet reached the moment of death, and there is no need to rush to stabilize the situation for the new monarch, and he treats his sons relatively leniently, always focusing on saving his life.

Like the abolished prince Xiao Ying, who committed a heinous crime of rebellion, the emperor is still willing to reward his son with a whole corpse.

Now that the palace maid case has been suppressed, and Xiao Zhan's implicated crime of embezzlement is not a rebellion, the emperor does not plan to kill this son, but he understands in his heart that the time has come to really make a choice.

Yesterday I gave the sixth child a promise, and now I want to give the ministers and people all over the world an attitude.

You can't protect Lao Qi anymore, unless you plan to make him the crown prince,—— but this is absolutely impossible! It is impossible for him to hand over the country to him, he has no maternal family to rely on, but he is constrained by the Qin family's henchmen, and he is unstable, so he framed his brother in impatience, and he is not worthy of being a king!

Since he gave up the seventh child, then he should be properly placed and not given him the opportunity to make mistakes again, but this matter must be made by the sixth child to intercede,—— before he pleaded for his brother in front of his father, and then he was taboo to do it to his brother again.

"Please ask the emperor to judge!" Some courtiers came out to play.

Many officials echoed one after another, "Please ask the emperor to decide this case." "It's decided that people's hearts are decided, uncertain, everyone doesn't know where to go to the team, anxious and panicked, what if you stand wrong? The glory and wealth of the second half of his life will not be over.

"Tell me the will." The emperor glanced at Xiao Zhan, that young, radiant son, it was not bad, but his fate was a little worse, and his temperament was a little impatient, which was a pity.

"Father!" Xiao Duo said: "Although Lao Qi made a mistake, it was also because he mistrusted people when he was young, and he did the wrong thing in a moment of confusion, so please forgive him for the sake of his filial piety and friendship." He also said: "Moreover, my father has always loved Lao Qi, and he loves all my brothers, no matter which one suffers, my father will be distressed and sad at that time, for the sake of my father's body, my son also asks my father to forgive Lao Qi." ”

Xiao Zhan looked at his brother in disbelief, what is he ......, acting? He is not afraid, he has overacted in acting, what should he do if his father is really soft-hearted? Ask yourself, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it.

Sixth brother, you can really bear it.

The emperor looked down in silence and did not say anything.

"Your Majesty." Feng Yuan came out, "Prince Cheng is at fault, but please ask the emperor to see Prince Duan's intercession, for the sake of his brother's care for his younger brother, and for the sake of his son's filial piety to his father, he will open up to Prince Cheng, and the right should be to reward Prince Duan's friendship." ”

Although he is interceding for Xiao Zhan, he is actually erecting a good name for Xiao Duo everywhere.

Then, several more officials chimed in.

Seeing that the situation below was almost over, the emperor sighed and said slowly: "The sixth man is benevolent, generous, and filial. This commendation was deliberately given to the courtiers, and then said: "However, the seventh man cannot go unpunished for making mistakes." ”

"Spread my will, deprived the seventh prince Xiao Zhan of the throne, demoted to the king of the county, three days after receiving the decree, left Beijing to garrison Yanmen Pass, and made meritorious service to atone for his mistakes."

Since he abandoned the seventh child, don't let him have another chance to have other thoughts, and don't give the sixth child a chance to worry about it, I hope that their brothers can be at peace with each other.

"The Emperor Shengming!" The ministers responded one after another.

"Father's ......" Xiao Zhan knew that the matter could not be reversed, this was already his best way to retreat at present, and he had all kinds of feelings in his heart, remorse, unwillingness, helplessness, and happiness, but in the end, he ...... still stabilize his body and knelt down and said: "Son, thank my father for his grace." ”

I am not an ordinary mistake, but a mistake on a mistake, and I have been completely eliminated by my father from the possibility of taking the heir!

Yanmen Pass? Generations of Zhenbei are probably the back road for themselves and their children and grandchildren.

I failed, my father didn't choose myself, he abandoned himself, he chose ......, and couldn't help but look at Xiao Duo, Sixth Brother, you still won. Thinking of her again, Ah Luan ......, it seems that your original choice was right, and the person who can make you mother the world is not me,...... It's him.

In the midst of sorrow, this is the only one that can comfort oneself -

May he never fail you.

******

When the Empress Dowager Qin learned the news of the court in front of her, her eyes suddenly went dark, and the palace maids were so panicked that they rubbed their chests and called the imperial doctor, and they tossed for a long time before she could let her old man slowly wake up.

"It's over, it's over." She cried with tears in her eyes.

Concubine Qin De rushed over when she heard the news, but her face was also ashen, but she sat quietly and did not speak.

What else can be said? From the beginning, he was not optimistic about Xiao Zhan's hope of winning the heir. Although I also want to fight for it, it is not my aunt's radical method, embarrass the Feng family, pour sewage on Xiao Duo, and even do not hesitate to attack Brother Liang, how can such a Qin family ,—— emperor tolerate the scourge of the next generation of emperors? The more my aunt moved, the more the Qin family jumped up and down to win over officials, which made Xiao Zhanli's position as the prince farther away.

What's even more terrifying is that the Queen Mother is the Queen Mother no matter how much trouble she makes, as long as she doesn't send someone to murder the emperor, she will die proudly, but what about herself? When the queen mother dies in the future, the emperor is dead, Xiao Zhan is also far away in Yanmen Pass and has no power, the future emperor ......, should be the sixth, when he thinks of the Qin family and Xiao Zhan, do you still have a good life?

Concubine Qin De's heart was desolate.

looked at the Queen Mother who was crying and grabbing the ground, there was no word of persuasion, only resentment.

And the emperor made a choice and determined the candidate for the prince, and the will was not only Xiao Zhan's.

There are bright and dark, but all of them are paving the way for the future prince and removing obstacles for the prince, so that when the country is handed over in the future, the transition will be smooth and not stormy.

One of them is to let Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng die of "wind cold" on the way to Yanmen Pass.

When this news came, it dealt another hard blow to the Empress Dowager Qin, and she fell ill.

When Feng Luan heard the news, he was surprised: "Could it be that ......, cough, to live a few years less?" "In her previous life, Empress Dowager Qin also fell ill after Xiao Zhan's defeat, but it was two years later.

Xiao Duo's face was flat, and he said coldly: "The Qin family can't make waves anymore." ”——

That's just as well.

Feng Luan nodded, what she was worried about now was not the outside world, one was not as powerful, and the other was not as good as Xiao Duo and the eldest uncle at all, so she didn't add to the chaos. What I'm worried about lately is the disposal of that palace maid. It is true that it is very easy to execute a palace maid, and when the limelight has passed recently, it will be disposed of quietly, take a broken straw mat and bury it in the mass graves outside the city.

But there was a pimple in my heart, and it seemed that ......, the mystery of the previous life could no longer be solved.

"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Duo asked.

"It's fine." Feng Luan sighed in his heart, people, it's better not to be obsessed with obsession, cherish the present, and you will have a happier life. Stretched out his hand and stroked his face, "It's the prince, it seems that he has changed recently, is it too tiring for things outside." ”

"It's fine." Xiao Duo grabbed her hand and tried his best to keep it exactly the same as before in front of her, not wanting to scare her, and ......, instinctively reluctant to talk about it. The upsetting things didn't make everyone upset, and they didn't want to be disgusted by her.

Luan, if my eyes don't get better, will you dislike me?

Feng Luan nestled in his arms and hugged his waist, "The situation outside is almost stable, right?" That's fine, the prince will worry less and rest more, and I'll let the kitchen cook something for you. ”

"Hmm." Xiao Duo hugged her tightly and answered.

When the two were lingering, outside the bead curtain, a girl's voice came, "Lord, Concubine Gong sent her grandmother over to pass the word, saying that she had something to say to the princess." ”

Feng Luan smiled and got up, "The prince is resting, I'll come when I go." ”

Since Jiang Gongfei summoned Feng Luan into the palace in the past, let the court staff her, and was reprimanded by the emperor, she usually has no right to pass her daughter-in-law into the palace. However, it is also rare to send a grandmother to talk to her daughter-in-law.

Xiao Duo was a little worried about her, and advised: "You just listen, come back and discuss with me if you have any difficulties." ”

"Okay." Feng Luan didn't have anything to worry about in the palace, even if Jiang Gongfei called someone to scold her, it was just a matter of listening. What's more, with him caring about himself and vouching for himself, what else is there to worry about? So he went out to see the grandmother, and led him to the side hall to speak, "I don't know what Concubine Gong Niangniang commanded?" ”

Mama said in a low voice: "Didn't the emperor reward a palace maid to the prince?" ”

"yes." Feng Luan's eyes condensed slightly, and he had a faint premonition in his heart, his heart was beating, and the hand in his sleeve was also trembling, and he asked calmly, "What's wrong?" What's wrong with that palace maid? ”

"Of course it's a big mistake!" Mama's tone was dissatisfied, "The emperor said to the outside world that he rewarded the prince with a palace maid, but Concubine Gong heard that the battle that day was too big, and Concubine Mei also died." Here, the twists and turns inside, didn't the prince tell you? The voice was lowered, "That palace maid is not coming in the right way, and rumors are spreading outside, which is not good for the reputation of the prince." ”

Feng Luan looked at each other quietly, her voice trembling slightly, "Oh, what do you ......mean by Concubine Gong?" ”

"Niangniang asked me to remind the princess, don't let the prince be confused by those foxes and crooked, let alone covet a little beauty, regardless of reputation." Mama leaned closer and said, "I can't let that palace maid get pregnant." ”

"Oh." Feng Luan felt that his whole body was stiff, and asked, "What if I can't persuade the prince?" ”

"That's better." Mama confessed: "This woman is pregnant with a child, and giving birth to a child is a ghost gate, and if she can't say it, something will happen." When the time comes, the princess will only need to ......"

Feng Luan's mind was buzzing.

She seemed to see that in her previous life, the abolished princess Mu was summoned into the palace by Jiang Gongfei, not from her grandmother, but from Jiang Gongfei herself, who said something similar.

And the palace maid whose fate was uncertain at that time,...... It's yourself.
