Chapter 426: The End of the Night (1)
There have been a lot of things that have happened recently, and it can be said that the capital is turned upside down, and the people in the court are panicking.
Zhou Lie's party was still flaunting its might yesterday, but today it is scattered and collapsed.
In the same way, I was still squandering my dignity as a county lord yesterday, and today it has plummeted, and no one takes our Jinwang Mansion seriously.
My father has been sighing, and there is a sense of depression in the mansion that the building is about to collapse and is precarious.
The Jinwang Mansion is about to be lost.
Clear-eyed people all know that my father is not just Zhou Lie's comrade. The identity of the descendants of the Ye family of his father is a back road left by Zhou Lie for his ambitions.
If one day, the forces of the two sides are incompatible, then Zhou Lie can openly contend with the Xie family in the name of supporting my father.
Now that Zhou Lie is dead, how can the Xie family make our Jinwang Mansion better?
We have prepared for the worst, and my father is secretly transferring his property to the farm, just waiting for the storm to come.
Xu is the cowardice and incompetence of his father, or maybe Xie Xinlan does not dare to make a drastic move, or maybe it is the Seventh Emperor Uncle who has entered the court, which has caused a new crisis for the Xie family. For a long time, the court was treacherous, fighting openly and secretly, and it was surprisingly lively. Anyway, for the time being, no one has time to talk to us, and the Jinwang Mansion has a short respite.
What happened that night caused a sensation in the entire Shangjing City, teahouses and wine shops, and many people told the story vividly. There are all kinds of versions, and the only thing that can be unified is the dance in the city that night.
As for the other experiences, including the identity of the dancing girl who assassinated Zhou Lie, there are different opinions.
Most people say that it is the second lady of the Hua family, Hua Qianyi.
Some people also said that the dancing girl had someone else, who was slapped by Zhou Lie and died.
Only I understand that that person must be Hua Qianshu.
But no one believed it when he said it, because the fake Hua Qianshu was sitting next to the Seven Emperor Uncles at that time, wearing a phoenix crown. The heavy jade phoenix crown made it difficult for the new princess to even breathe.
The new princess disappeared mysteriously after that night. In order to protect her safety, Uncle Seven Emperor said that she was frightened and sent to another hospital to recuperate.
Everyone believed.
I was also scared at first, afraid that she would make a comeback with a thousand trees, then, Liu Jiangquan is dead, Zhou Lie is also dead, and the next person to pay for her life is me.
She must have been secretly hiding somewhere, eyeing me.
I spent every day in fear, unable to sleep at night, afraid that in my sleep, a cold blade would rest on my neck.
Later, after the Hua family was rehabilitated, the mausoleum of the Hua family was rebuilt.
In order to show the grace of the imperial court, the queen mother bought people's hearts and allocated the silver of the treasury to rebuild the cemetery.
Hua Qianyi, as the only survivor of the Hua family today, organized a huge funeral and posted to me.
Hua Qianyi hates me to the core.
When she was in trouble, I not only humiliated her in public, but also sold her into Fireworks Willow Lane, which made her have to endure a lifetime of infamy.
Even later, when I learned that Hana Chiki was looking for her everywhere, I took the lead and sent a killer.
The grudge is deep, and Hua Qianyi wants to take the opportunity to humiliate me.
Naturally, I wouldn't send it to the door to bring shame on myself.
However, Hua Qianyi's invitation also wrote a few words: "Do you want to know the whereabouts of Hua Qianshu?"
I thought, I really thought, if I keep living like this, I'll be driven crazy sooner or later.
So, knowing that I was about to be humiliated, I still came as promised.
At this time, at that time, the Hua family is now rehabilitated, Hua Qianyi is the county lord, and she is the princess of Fengfu, so there are naturally many people who are icing on the cake. The cemetery, which used to be deserted, became lively, and many people in the court went to pay their respects.
Feng Chumad, the prospective son-in-law, did not show up.
Hua Qianyi was dressed in filial piety, her eyes were red and swollen, and she was supported by the girl, like pear blossom rain, which was particularly pitiful.
But when she turned to face me, there was clearly a kind of pride and pride that the winner is king.
She's a rattlesnake who is good at camouflage, and since the last time I overheard her talking to herself in this cemetery, I knew that sooner or later, Hua Qianshu would be bitten by her.
I was still somewhat timid, and I could only rely on my raised chin to support my own pride.
Even when I speak, I need to work hard and muster courage: "I'm coming." ”
Hua Qianyi raised her hand and pointed to the mausoleum of General Hua and his wife, and whispered and commanded: "Shouldn't Lord Muqing kneel?"
I scowled my neck proudly and snorted coldly: "Joke! I am the lord of the Chang'an Dynasty, a member of the royal family, how can I kneel down to ordinary officials?"
"When you kneel, it should be to make amends to my parents, and it has nothing to do with your status. ”
I didn't give in at all: "If you say you are guilty, it is Liu Jiangquan." Now that he has lost his life at the hands of a thousand trees, everything has to do with me?"
"Do you dare to say that the tragedy of my Hua family has nothing to do with your night?" Hua Qianyi raised her voice with tears in her eyes.
"There has been a judgment in the imperial court, this matter is instigated by Zhou Lie behind the scenes, what does it have to do with my Jinwang Mansion?"
Hua Qianyi slowly walked up to me and lowered her voice:
"It is true that Zhou Lie and Liu Jiangquan killed my father and brother, but the Queen Mother just ordered the female officials of my Huafu to be sold into slavery. But you actually disobeyed the yin and yin, privately ordered, let the guards anger my mother and sister-in-law, and then used this to create a killing, mutilate my Hua family's daughters, humiliate me in every way, and blame Liu Jiangquan. Yeduqing, should we go to the Queen Mother to confront each other one by one, and ask the Queen Mother to administer justice for my Hua family?"
I suddenly hit a spirit, it was indeed me who secretly instructed Liu Jiangquan to bear all the sins and infamy, completely turn against Hua Qianshu, and cut off all his thoughts, but how could Hua Qianyi know?
Hua Qianyi hid her face in her sleeves, looking in pain, but she secretly sneered and hid behind her sleeves: "Are you afraid? I'm afraid that you will never think that your Jinwang Mansion will have today, right? Now the Empress Dowager is purging Zhou Lieyu's party, if this matter is returned, do you say, will the Empress Dowager easily spare your Jinwang Mansion?"
I was speechless, and I knew that any sin was the last straw that overwhelmed the palace.
If I don't give in to her, my Jinwang Mansion will suffer.
Hua Qianyi walked to my side, leaned over half of her body, leaned into my ear, and lowered her voice: "The life and death of the daughters of the Huafu have nothing to do with me, after all, I have never been as favored as Hua Qianshu in front of them. All I care about is your humiliation of me at the gate of Huafu. ”
