129. Ask for guilt

"Sister Yun, did you send someone to seriously injure Lin Tao?" Zhilan raised her tear-misty eyes and looked at Qingyun.

Qingyun looked stunned, then shook his head: "I didn't send anyone to seriously injure Lin Tao, I just asked Mo Xuan to delay his recovery time and make him suffer more." ”

That incident must not be known to Zhilan, otherwise with her kind nature, she will take all the blame on herself.

This matter was not done by her, and who would hate Lin Tao so much?

Five people fell into deep thought at the same time.

Looking at Zhilan, who had a faint melancholy between her eyebrows, Qingyun said softly: "Anyway, it's always a good thing that that person taught Lin Tao a lesson for you, don't think too much, I'll send someone to find out." Also, if there is anything you have to tell me in the future, you can't bear it alone, then I will be more worried, Zhilu Dao? ”

"I know." Zhi Lan nodded heavily: "Sister Yun must also take care of her body." ”

"I will." Looking up at the gorgeous sunset in the gradually darkening sky, there was a bottomless depression in the light cloud ink pupils.

She is more desperate than anyone else to take care of her body, after all, the murderer who poisoned her mother has not been found, and the power that threatens her father's safety has not been completely eradicated, but her dilapidated body, which may fall at any time, can she hold on to that day?

It's been almost a month since Long Ying left, and for his safety, there has been no correspondence, and I don't know how he is now?

Also, are Bingying and her husband safe and sound?

Looking at Qingyun with a thick sorrow and worry lingering between his eyebrows, Mo Xuan was full of pity and determination.

No matter what the price is, he must find a medicine to eradicate her cold poison, and he will definitely eliminate the threat around her, so that she can enjoy a relaxed and comfortable life to the fullest!

"Let's go, the emperor should be in a hurry."

As soon as the words fell, I saw Emperor Huiwen sitting on a dragon chariot surrounded by Leng Yi and a group of palace maids and eunuchs, as well as guards.

Qingyun and Zhilan hurriedly gathered their spirits and stepped forward to salute: "Daughter see her father, father is blessed!" ”

Except for Mo Xuan, who just bowed, Lu Po and Qiu He both knelt on the ground and saluted, and the palace maids and eunuchs also bowed to Qingyun.

Stepping down, Long Yuan strode in front of the two, stretched out his hand to help the two of them, and Emperor Huiwen said kindly: "Hurry up." Then he waved his hand to signal everyone to flatten down, then looked at the closed gate of Yanqing Palace, then looked at Zhilan, who was still stained with tears, and looked at his beloved daughter after the last look: "Jiu'er has been to see the concubine?" ”

"Yes." After explaining Emperor Huiwen's condition and his own arrangements briefly, Qingyun winked at Emperor Huiwen and hinted that Zhilan was here: "Father, please rest assured, Mo Xuan and Imperial Doctor Xu will try their best to heal the concubine, I believe that the concubine will be cured, and everyone must also do a good job of prevention to avoid infection." ”

Even my father and emperor know about it, and presumably other people also know about the epidemic of the concubine, I don't know what kind of panic it will cause?

Seeing the meaningful eyes of his beloved daughter, Emperor Huiwen instantly understood that there must be something strange about this matter, but he also understood that this was not the place to speak, so he said majestically: "Pass the order, everyone is waiting for Jiu'er's order, and those who violate the order will be killed!" ”

"Slaves obey!" Leng Yi then took the order and left.

Then Emperor Huiwen took his beloved daughter's hand and stepped on the dragon chariot first, and then stretched out his hand towards Zhilan: "Lan'er also come up." ”

Looking at the generous big hands, Zhi Lan looked up at her father with a loving face, her expression was suddenly excited, her eyes were gradually filled with crystal tears, she put her fair-skinned hands into the big hands, and sat on the other side of her father, her hands were still gently held by the big hands, and the feeling of warmth and happiness always lingered in her body and mind.

From childhood to adulthood, although her father was not cold to her, he did not love her, and every time he saw his father so selflessly pampering and caring for Sister Yun, it was false to say that she was not half jealous, so that when she saw Sister Yun's life hanging by a thread several times because of the tricks of the princes and princesses, she was indifferent, and even gloated.

It wasn't until she saw with her own eyes that Sister Yun had to endure the cold and poisonous torture that life was worse than death at such a young age, and after knowing that Concubine Yun had hurt Sister Yun again and again, she not only no longer had the slightest jealousy, but pitied Sister Yun even more.

Remembering that when she was a child, she secretly vowed to protect Sister Yun well, and Zhilan became more and more determined in that idea.

Looking at Mo Xuan, who was following his beloved daughter's side, Emperor Huiwen's elegant face was unwavering, but there was a sharp edge of unknown intention flashing in his pupils.

Calmly facing the scrutinizing gaze of Emperor Huiwen, Mo Xuan's whole person was like the rising full moon in the sky at that time, looking so quiet and indifferent.

When the group came to the imperial garden, the courtiers and their families had been waiting for a long time, and they knelt down to salute when they saw this.

Seeing that Zhilan was sitting beside Emperor Huiwen, the prime minister and Mrs. Lin both changed their expressions, thinking that the family was still suffering from pain and became the son of a half-crippled person, Mrs. Lin was sure that it was this little slut who instructed others to seriously injure her precious son, and she couldn't help but be full of resentment.

Looking at the happiness of the sixth brother's family, the third emperor's sister-in-law and the third brother talked in a low voice, there was always a shallow smile between their eyebrows, completely lost the melancholy of the past, Qingyun was deeply pleased, and the fifth brother and the starling brother were drinking with each other, but from time to time they looked at the table behind her and the protector, and the obvious disappointment in her eyes made her purse her lips and snicker.

His eyes fell on Gong Yuanhao, the first Zhongwu King on the right, and Qingyun pretended not to know and asked, "Zhongwu King, why don't you see the prince?" ”

Hearing the inquiry, Gong Yuanhao got up and saluted respectfully: "Back to the emperor's ninth princess, there was an urgent message from the house the day before yesterday that my mother was suddenly sick, and the dog rushed back to the bed to fulfill his filial piety, so he never participated in the banquet, and asked the emperor and the ninth princess to forgive!" ”

"It is understandable that the prince wants to be filial, but how noble is the identity of the ninth princess, the prince was absent from the banquet without showing the emperor and the ninth princess in advance, wouldn't he not take the ninth princess in his eyes?" Qingyun hadn't said anything yet, and the upright Pingyang Hou Zhou Ji had already opened his mouth to condemn.

"Pingyang Hou's words are inevitably a little inappropriate." Wang Ninghai, the Marquis of Wu'an, next to him, said slowly: "My dynasty has always ruled the world with filial piety, and said that things are urgent and follow the power, so why is it wrong for the prince to go back and do his filial piety?" And although the prince is gone, isn't King Zhongwu here, and isn't it best for Emperor Zhongwu and the Ninth Princess to be the best? Why don't you respect the meaning of the Nine Princesses? Besides, the nine princesses are known to the world for their benevolence and purity, and they will naturally understand the benevolence and filial piety of the prince! ”

After listening to the words of the two, Qingyun Qingli always had a gentle smile on her face, but her eyes were as deep as the sea.

Pingyang Hou Ming defends her dignity, but in fact, she is relying on her father's favor to see everything, I really don't know if he has a mouth or not? Or is it deliberate?

And Wu Anhou first excused Gong Yuanhao's father and son with great truths, and then made her unable to criticize Gong Yuanhao's father and son on the grounds of benevolence and purity, after all, so many people have seen that Gong Yuanhao is still there, this matter can be big or small, but if she is not careful, she will lose the hearts of the people!

Neither of these people is simple!

It's just that Gong Yuanhao has always lived in a simple house and has never had any contact with the courtiers, why would these two people who have always been incompatible speak for Gong Yuanhao at the same time?

Could it be that she was overlooking something?

"No matter how urgent you are, you won't even have time for Emperor Ming and the Ninth Princess, right?"

"The dearest person is sick, and he is so anxious that he can't care about anything else?"

"That's it!" Interrupting the two people who were fighting with red faces, Qingyun looked directly at them who immediately stopped their mouths and lowered their heads, and said majestically: "The two important ministers of the court are arguing endlessly in public, what kind of system is it? ”

Ling Yan's tone shocked the two of them in shock, and they hurriedly knelt on the ground together: "Weichen is guilty, please punish the ninth princess!" ”

"Nine Princesses" Gong Yuanhao also hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said with a look of self-blame: "Everything is the sin of the old minister, I didn't expect the two adults to have a dispute because of the old minister, and I also asked the ninth princess to be magnanimous and spare the two adults, and the old minister is willing to bear it!" ”

Clear eyes circulated between the three of them, Qingyun pursed her lips slightly and was silent for a long time, as time passed, the three of them couldn't help but get nervous, and couldn't guess how the ninth princess would send them down, and even everyone was worried about it, and they all sweated for them.

You must know that in the past half a month from the New Year's dinner to the present, the ninth princess has ruthlessly eradicated how many people from the Absolute Dust Palace, and those courtiers who were involved in the Absolute Dust Palace have all been beheaded to show the public.

The Nine Princesses, who are decisive and ruthless in killing like that, who is not in awe or afraid?

I'm afraid it's another night of horror tonight!

Coldly glancing at everyone with different expressions, Emperor Huiwen's eyes flashed with a sharp edge, and he gently held his beloved daughter's hand to give her silent support!

Feeling the warmth coming from the palm of her hand, Qingyun smiled at Emperor Huiwen sideways, signaling him not to worry, such a trivial matter could not hurt her in the slightest.

And Mo Xuan's eyebrows, who were sitting beside Qingyun, contained coldness, and the death-like cold aura traveled around him.

Glaring at the people below, Green Amber's face was as cold as ice.

The princess worked hard day and night in order to give these people a peaceful and prosperous world, and they didn't know what to do, it was simply hateful and hateful!

Sima Rui and Sima Xian, as well as Sima Qi and Sima Yue, who noticed the strange atmosphere, all stared at the three people kneeling on the ground, with a ruthless and murderous aura in their eyes.

Dare to be so disrespectful to their most beloved Jiu'er, they are looking for death!

For a long time, Qingyun raised his eyebrows and stared at the Marquis of Pingyang and the Marquis of Wu'an, and his tone was clear and majestic: "As an important minister of the court, he doesn't want to be loyal to the country and share worries for the king, but regardless of his identity, he is fighting for red ears in front of the public. ”

"It's about the dignity of the emperor and the ninth princess, isn't it a trivial matter?" Although Pingyang Hou muttered in a low voice, there were many people with profound skills present, so they naturally heard it clearly.

"Dignity?!" Qingyun, who had all the internal strength of Emperor Huiwen, could also hear it clearly, and couldn't help but turn pale: "The dignity of my father and the palace depends on the peace of the country and the people, and on the heartfelt support and loyalty of all the subjects, not such duplicitous flattery!"

As far as this palace knows, the Marquis of Pingyang, who was the general of Dingyuan, was brave and good at fighting and strict and upright, why did he learn to meet his will now, could it be that the days of comfort and prosperity have passed for a long time, and his character has also changed?

And you Wu'an Hou, your father thought that you had given high-ranking officials Houlu from the dragon's merits, not only did you not be grateful to Dai De, and did your best to assist your father and emperor to seek the well-being of the people, but you quarreled with Pingyang Hou in public like a shrew in the market, and those who knew Lu Dao said that you were good intentions to calm the turmoil, and those who didn't know Lu Dao thought that you were a person who was loyal to King Wu, otherwise what would you say about excusing King Zhongwu for King Zhongwu? Doesn't that call into question your loyalty? Where have you left King Zhongwu behind? ”

When the two of them heard this, their faces turned pale with fright, and cold sweat instantly overflowed on their foreheads: "Weichen has no heart to be disobedient, ask the emperor and the ninth princess to be gracious!" The families of the two also knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

is a sharp-toothed nine princesses, every word is bloody, such a rebellious hat is buttoned down, they will definitely die!

The others were also frightened, and they didn't dare to take a breath.

Gong Yuanhao wanted to intercede for the two of them again, but the strategist dressed as a servant behind him stopped him at the right time, and shook his head without a trace to signal him to wait and see what happened.

For a while, the entire banquet hall was silent, only the cold moonlight was sprinkled lightly, and the cold wind was blowing, and everyone felt more and more that the cold air was infiltrating!

"This palace believes that you don't have the slightest disobedience, but what you did tonight really disappointed my father and the palace!" Qingyun's cool tone was even more chilling in everyone's ears: "However, I think that you are a first-time offender, and King Zhongwu has interceded for you and accepted it on your behalf, this palace will spare you this time for the time being, if there is a next time, this palace will not tolerate it!" Passed the decree, reduced Pingyang Hou to Pingyang Bo, Wu Anhou to Wu Anbo, thought about it behind closed doors for three months, cultivated himself, and handed over the affairs in his hands to Taifu to be responsible! ”

Regardless of whether they are involved with King Zhongwu or not, she must take precautions, after all, it is related to the safety of her father, especially King Zhongwu has such an inexplicable relationship with the royal family, but it can't be too much.

"Weichen thank the emperor and the ninth princess for their grace of not killing!" The two of them breathed a sigh of relief, and then realized that they were shocked into a cold sweat, but fortunately, they just lowered their titles and thought about it behind closed doors, although they lost the power in their hands, it was better than being beheaded all over the house!

The hearts of the people who were also hanging finally fell.

Fortunately, there was a false alarm, but it was a pity that the two of them were demoted and seized power because of a few quarrels, and it was difficult to get the weight of the emperor and the ninth princess again, and at the same time I thought that I must be cautious in my words and deeds in the future, otherwise the two marquis, no, the two uncles are a lesson from the past.

And Gong Yuanhao's slightly drooping eyes crossed a glimmer of unknown intent, and he was about to speak, but a light and cold voice came from his ears.

"As for King Zhongwu, if you have an urgent matter to leave in your family, you can make it clear to your father and the palace, that is, your father and the palace are not cold-hearted and ruthless people, so they will naturally allow your father and son to go back to fulfill their filial piety, but you concealed it and didn't say anything, and because of this, you provoked a dispute between the two courtiers, King Zhongwu, are you guilty?"
