Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Emperor Who Beat a Rake
Huang Qiong, who has long known that he is the emperor, may have eyeliner in the mansion of several sons, has long been psychologically prepared for the emperor's questioning. Hearing that the emperor was so simply provocative, Huang Qiong hurriedly knelt down and said: "The son is not filial, he violated the instructions of his father before leaving the palace, and did ridiculous things in the Yongwang Mansion, and asked his father to punish him." ”
"But please rest assured that although the son did something ridiculous, he was just drinking with the fifth and seventh brothers and enjoying the song and dance. did not discuss the government and politics, and did not involve the father and the crown prince in the speech. Erchen knows his identity, and he doesn't dare to go beyond it, let alone delusional about those unrealistic, and even more so, Erchen can't climb high, and he shouldn't have thoughts. ”
"The prince is a brother to his sons, but he is also a king, how dare his sons criticize the prince behind his back? If your father doesn't believe it, you can find the king of Shu to confront him. The sons are outsiders, but the king of Shu and the crown prince are brothers of the same mother, and the king of Shu will naturally not favor the sons. What did the ministers do that night, the father and the emperor asked the king of Shu to know. ”
"Erchen knows that his identity is sensitive, so he has been cautious and cautious since he left the palace, and he has not dared to exceed even the slightest, and has always adhered to his duty as a minister and a son of man. As for other things that have nothing to do with Erchen, Erchen has not considered it, let alone pondered it. ”
"If it weren't for the previous time I entered the palace, my father asked my sons to have more contact with the brothers, and the sons and daughters would not have gone to the banquet in the Yongwang Mansion. Erchen knew that his father didn't trust Erchen, and Erchen couldn't explain it clearly even when he was full of mouths. If the father thinks that the son is a minister, staying in the capital will be detrimental to the prince. ”
"Or if you are worried that your sons are playing right and wrong behind your backs and discussing the government in vain, then ask your father to change the ancestral system, and now ask your sons to become vassals. Rather than let his father be so distrustful, it is better to send him away early, so that he is out of sight and out of mind. Or simply give his son a glass of wine, anyway, the son makes his father so distrustful, and he is shameless. “
Knowing that he was facing a suspicious emperor, he probably deliberately found his own fault here, and Huang Qiong, who might not be able to explain it clearly, finally came to retreat as an advance. However, Huang Qiong also clicked on the emperor in his words and told the emperor that you should not be too partial.
In this matter, you don't ask the King of Shu who is also present, but instead catch me and finish it, isn't it too much to do this. They are your sons, and I am your sons, aren't they? Isn't that a bit too much for you? The same son, why bother to divide them into such three, six, nine and so on? Don't come to a few hard words, you really think I'm good at pinching.
Sure enough, after Huang Qiong finished speaking, the emperor's face was a little unbearable on the spot, and he said somewhat annoyedly: "I'm just worried that you will be damaged by King Yong, so I just asked a few more words." This is also my concern for you, how did it become a distrust of you? “
"Is there no one else in the secret room that day except you and the Yongwang? If I really don't trust you, why should I ask you to ask me today, I'm really confused and stupid. If I hear nonsense like you in the future, I will be severely punished. ”
Looking at the somewhat angry emperor, Huang Qiong suddenly felt as if he had understood the wrong emperor's meaning. The emperor asked himself today, as if he was not aiming at himself, but at the king of Shu. Huang Qiong, who finally understood this, immediately closed her mouth wisely in the face of the emperor who was angry and angry that he would have the wrong intentions.
It's just that shut up, but the corners of Huang Qiong's mouth still skimmed slightly. Xin said: "You want to check the king of Shu, you want to know something from me, didn't you knock the wrong wooden fish?" You don't trust me, and your sons trust me again? The King of Shu pretended to be affectionate to me in the Yongwang Mansion, did he really trust me? ”
"Don't you know your own son? Is that a good stubble? The King of Shu's defense of me is estimated to be heavier than yours, and he will arrange the prince in front of me, right? If you want to say that King Yong is still possible, but if you want to say that King Shu's thousand-year-old fox, how can it be possible? ”
It's just that Huang Qiong discussed these words, but he didn't dare to say it in front of the emperor. It's just that he slightly pursed the corners of his mouth, but it didn't escape the emperor's eyes. In fact, the emperor also found out a little hindsight that he was looking for Huang Qiong to question him today, obviously looking for the wrong person.
The character of his fifth son couldn't be clearer. It looks quite harmless, but in fact, it is extremely defensive against anyone. If Huang Qiong could meet for the first time, he would comment on the prince privately, and it would not be him. There were already some emperors who realized that they had done something wrong today, but when they saw the corners of Huang Qiong's mouth twitching slightly, they roughly guessed what Huang Qiong was thinking, and they couldn't help but be even more annoyed and angry.
Indeed, whether it is the Lao Tzu, it will be quite uncomfortable to be despised by his own son, not to mention that he, Lao Tzu, is still the king of a country. Thinking of this, the emperor also pursed the corners of his lips and said, "Now that I understand my intentions, this matter is over." ”
"This time, you just left the palace, and you don't understand some things, and you didn't take the initiative to do it, so I won't pursue your absurd behavior this time. If there is a next time, I will definitely punish him heavily. When you left the palace, I told you that one of the princes was enough to have a Yongwang, and I didn't want another Yongwang. ”
"If I find out that you are ridiculous with the Eternal King, no matter who is the problem, I will not spare you. Accepted three concubines at once, who gave you such a bold son? What do you want to do when King Yong runs around your house all day during this time? Is it ridiculous to find you again? Or what kind of concubine or something to give you? I tell you, this time not as an example, and then there will be a next time to take care of your skin. ”
Huang Qiong was even more disdainful of the emperor's obvious no-nonsense style, and gave her father a big roll of the eyes, and said in her heart: "You have placed so many eyeliners in me, and you even know that your Yongwang gave me three concubines." Do you need to ask me what I am doing all day long? ”
It's just that the white eyes are white, but in the face of the question of his emperor Lao Tzu, Huang Qiong should still answer honestly. Huang Qiong, who knew that he couldn't hide this, told the emperor how King Yong rescued Jingniang from the brothel, and liked Jingniang, so much so that he ran to his house every day, just to see Jingniang's side and honestly explain to the emperor.
Obviously, the emperor still knows about King Yong's running to Huang Qiong every day. But what King Yong went to Huang Qiong to do, he really didn't know. After listening to Huang Qiong's explanation, the emperor couldn't help but be stunned. Where did he know that King Yong actually made such a thing for himself at this time?
Looking at Huang Qiong, who was standing in front of him with a respectful face, but his eyes didn't know where to look, the emperor, who was really angry with King Yong at this moment, was even more angry in his heart. It's just a kind of emperor who went up and kicked him hard to relieve his anger. The foot was raised, but after hesitating for a moment, it still didn't kick it.
However, although this kick did not kick out, the emperor suddenly spoke: "I tell you that before King Yong's wedding, I will never agree to him to accept a side concubine, no matter who this side concubine is." I can't hurt the heart of the old minister, and I can't help but think about the situation in the world. Since this matter is caused by you, then you can give me an idea of this matter. ”
Facing the emperor's obvious backlash, Huang Qiong's face was full of black lines at that time. What is called because of me, Song Zhizhao was indeed bought back, but the person who sent King Yong to find Jing Niang's sister and brother seems to be you. How did I get this done? However, he is not equal in his heart, but the emperor has no way to use a big hat to suppress people, right?
Huang Qiong, who was helpless, could only say: "Back to my father, the daughter of Song Gongliang's family, I don't have that mind about King Yong at all, let alone the mind of climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix." In order to avoid Brother Qi, he once mentioned to his son that he would become a nun or let her return to her hometown. But the son thinks about coming and going, neither of which is suitable. ”
The son thought about it for a long time and found a good place for her to go. happened to enter the palace today, and the son also wanted to ask his father for a decree, and wanted to send Jingniang into the palace and put her mother by her side. Jingniang was born in a civil official family, and she is well-known and reasonable, and she is even more virtuous and virtuous in character. Although he doesn't know the rules of the palace, he is still cautious. ”
"The son also knew that before the seventh brother got married, this kind of thing was not too appropriate. Although it is not as much as the father thinks, it is always unorthodox to take a concubine before marrying. So after the son learned about Seventh Brother's thoughts, he also persuaded him. But you also know the character of Brother Qi, if you don't leave, you are the master of regression. So the son wanted to find another place for Jingniang. ”
"Since the son left the palace, only the mother was left alone in the palace. Although there are many palace maids and eunuchs around him, they are not confidants after all. The son can't often visit his mother in the palace, presumably his mother's personality is cold, and she will feel lonely as time goes by. The son wants to send Jingniang to the palace, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone. ”
"First, the palace is not my mansion after all, even if the seventh brother has thoughts, it is impossible to run into the palace every day. Maybe Brother Qi is just a temporary infatuation with this girl. If the two don't see each other for a long time, the seventh brother will naturally stop thinking, and the second is that he can accompany his mother, so that there is someone who can comfort his mother. ”
Hearing Huang Qiong's idea, the emperor pondered for a while, and finally nodded: "Since you have come up with a countermeasure, then this matter will be done according to your ideas." When people send it to your mother, the king will not dare to toss anything. This matter is accurate, you don't need to go to the Ministry of Internal Service to report, I just let Gao Wuyong handle this matter. ”
Speaking of this, the emperor suddenly said with some embarrassment: "However, your thoughts are good. But if your mother doesn't accept anyone, you still need to say it yourself, and I won't make decisions for your mother in this matter. As long as your mother agrees, you can send people in as soon as possible, so that the eternal king will not have a lot of dreams at night and do something for me. ”
Huang Qiong heard the meaning of the emperor's words. Although the emperor covered it up, he still told Huang Qiong very bluntly that if he wanted to send people to his mother, he, the king of a country, really couldn't make decisions for her. It's up to you two to discuss this matter yourself, and I'll wait for it to be ready-made.
It's just that in this matter, Huang Qiong really didn't laugh at him, the emperor's old son, for being sluggish. Even in my heart, there was no ridicule. Because of his mother's character, he still knows it. Not to mention that these days, the emperor who has hit a lot of walls is a little stunned, even if he tries to persuade himself, he is a little bottomless in his heart.
