Chapter 134: Suicide note
Since this matter has been discussed, Shen's mother will no longer push it back, and the next day she went to the official media to arrange this matter, and the two young masters of the Prime Minister's Mansion proposed marriage at the same time, which is a big deal, and the matchmaker who proposed marriage has not yet moved, and the news has been the first to come out.
Shi Xiangyuan didn't expect that her helping Lu Jiuzhi would make her family process much faster, and she was happy and nervous for a while, Lu Jiuzhi laughed at her and said: "You started to be nervous before you got married, if you really want to get on that day, won't you even be able to get up the sedan chair." ”
"Hmph, my brother was in a sedan chair on the day I got married, so why do you need to go by yourself," Shi Xiangyuan also shot back, "On the day of the poetry meeting, you didn't go to Zhuangzi a long time ago, and you were embarrassed to talk about me." ”
Lu Jiuzhi's face turned red, and he was afraid that Shi Xiangyuan didn't know what to say, so he hurriedly changed the topic and said: "Speaking of which, I am thanks to Princess Xian, do we want to talk to her about this." ”
Shi Xiangyuan nodded: "What you said is also true, although she may already know the news, but we still send her a letter and say a few words of thanks." ”
It was already evening when the letter was delivered, and Pei Yuan rarely did not deal with government affairs in the study, but leaned on the bed in the bedroom and hugged Shen Jiahe's waist to read miscellaneous books.
The beauty is in his arms, and he can't stand it, but Shen Jiahe has to embroider a belt with him on a whim, so he has to be bored with her.
It's just that Shen Jiahe really has no talent in embroidery, but he only embroidered a petal, and his hand has been pricked three or four times, Pei Yuan had to sigh and take her finger in his mouth, and the tip of his warm tongue touched her cold finger, making her tremble and hurriedly retract her hand.
Pei Yuan was attracted closer and closer by her, his mouth was empty, he glanced at Shen Jiahe sadly, and saw that she flew a glance at herself, her eyes were shy and timid, and he was hot all over, no matter whether he was reading a book or embroidering, he directly threw the thing in his hand, held Shen Jiahe's face with both hands, and kissed it.
He slowly put the person down, and was about to reach out into her collar, when there was a knock on the door outside at the right time, Pei Yuan didn't pay attention to it, and was still pulling, but Shen Jiahe pushed him up: "Go and ask what's the matter?" ”
Pei Yuan let go of the person in annoyance, and then shouted outside: "What's the matter?" ”
Bai Ying's voice sounded outside: "Miss Lu and Miss Shi wrote a letter to the princess, do you want to send it in now?" ”
Pei Yuan gritted his teeth and looked at Shen Jiahe: "Are the two of them not in good brains, they still have people to send letters in the middle of the night." ”
"I just had dinner," Shen Jiahe said with a smile, seeing that he was really unhappy and comforting, "Maybe there is something urgent, let Bai Ying send it in and take a look." ”
When Shen Jiahe and Pei Yuan read the letter sent by the two, Pei Yuan's face was full of unhappiness: "This is what you said urgently?" The two of them are really ......."
Shen Jiahe stepped forward and kissed the corner of Pei Yuan's mouth, which made his mood feel better: "Speaking of which, you are really a good matchmaker, first your eldest brother and Xiang Yuan, and now your second brother and Miss Lu, of course, none of them are well married by themselves, so the best is left to yourself." ”
Shen Jiahe looked at him with a wry smile: "How can anyone be so cheeky and boast about themselves, besides, am I not the best?" ”
Pei Yuan pinched the tip of Shen Jiahe's nose and said with a smile: "Look, I just said that I boasted about myself, and it's not the same when I come to you, so let's not laugh at fifty steps and laugh at a hundred steps." ”
Shen Jiahe turned over and stepped forward to pinch Pei Yuan's face: "You always say that everything is the most reasonable!" ”
Pei Yuan nested her two hands in the palm of her hand and pressed the person against the tea table on the couch: "Let's not talk about these things first, let's finish the things that we haven't done before." ”
Shen Jiahe's face turned red, and he struggled to pull his hand out: "I haven't washed yet!" ”
Pei Yuan didn't let go, only freed up one hand and pushed the Ah Jin tea table to the side, and then put Shen Jiahe Fang down before he smiled: "It's okay, it's the same to wash it when it's done." ”
And just when it was calm in the capital, the letterhead that Xiaowu had helped send had been sent to her parents by Qin Xiaoshuang's henchmen.
Father Qin's fingers trembling with the letterhead, and after a long time, he asked the man in black who was kneeling: "How many of you said, you are the only one who survived?" ”
The man in black nodded and said: "The princess didn't know what task was assigned to them before, and afterwards I heard that the task was not completed, and they also died one after another, the small one was because it was never exposed, so it escaped a catastrophe, this letter was sent by the maid next to the princess, but it was not the former peach, the little guessed that the princess might be in danger, so he hurried back to report the news, but he didn't want to ......"
But he didn't want this to be Qin Xiaoshuang's suicide note, if he knew that Qin Xiaoshuang would commit suicide after this letter was sent, he should go directly to the East Palace to save people, instead of choosing to come back to deliver the letter.
"I don't blame you for this, after all, you don't know the content of this letter, but I just heard that Pei Shu is now canonized as the crown prince?" Father Qin asked with grief.
"Yes," the man in black replied, but after thinking about it, he decided to tell what he had seen, "It's just that the princess is neither the crown princess nor the side concubine in the East Palace, and I don't know what happened later." ”
What happened...... Qin's father snorted coldly, Pei Shu not only likes the new and hates the old, but also abuses her daughter like this, she is really ruthless, that is his most beloved little daughter, Qin Xiaoshuang was at home in the past, not only him, but even her brothers also put her in the palm of their hands and spoiled her, but Pei Shu was so good that he forced her to death.
How desperate a person must be to take the initiative to seek death, Qin's father didn't dare to imagine, let alone take the bloody letterhead to her mother to see, he saw that the letterhead was slowly folded and stuffed in his arms, he wanted to let this letter always remind himself that he must not forget the revenge of killing women.
Qin Xiaoshuang's eldest brother, Qin Mu, looked at his father and proposed: "If you want to avenge your sister, the only way is to destroy the Pei Dynasty, we may not have this strength before, but now it is different." ”
During the period of Qin Xiaoshuang and Pei Shu's peace and affinity, with the east wind of trade with the Pei Dynasty, the strength of the Qin clan has grown a lot, and if there is a war at this time, there is still some chance of winning.
Qin's father didn't agree very much: "It's not that my father is cowardly, it's just that Pei's territory is vast, and the number of soldiers and horses is several times that of ours, so if you start a war rashly, in the end, don't lose more than you gain, this matter is Pei's reason, if it is ......"
"No, if it is my father, this letter has only taken so long to reach us, which means that my sister has been dead for a long time, but Pei's has not said anything so far, which means that they don't take our Qin family in their eyes at all." Qin Mu directly interrupted, it was not a day or two since he had peeked into the territory of the Pei clan, and those pedantic literati had occupied that plain for too long, so it was time to change people.
Qin's father always hesitated, he wanted to avenge the woman, but if he was allowed to use the entire Qin clan as a price, it would never be possible.
Qin Mu had no choice but to continue to agitate: "Father's worries are very clear to the child, the child is not a reckless person, if this matter is about to be done, we can unite the Northern Burmese family." ”
"As far as I know, the princesses of Northern Burma have only been married to the capital for a short time, how can they fight with us at this time?" Father Jean felt that it was impossible.
Qin Mu felt that this was the best opportunity: "Father is wrong, it is precisely because their princess is married far away, this is the premise of our cooperation, you only need to show your sister's suicide note to the lord of Northern Burma, as for what to say, it all depends on your father." ”
The arrival of the head of the Qin family, the head of the North Burma poison doctor, is still a little confused, although they are close, but they are not close to each other on weekdays, and the head of the North Burma country is not optimistic about the person of the father Qin.
But seeing the letterhead handed over by Qin's father, he was still a little moved in his heart, no matter what the character of Qin's father was, at least in terms of his father's feelings for his daughter, the two of them were the same.
His daughter is also married far away in the capital, and he often has to worry about whether she can live well where, compared to Qin Xiaoshuang's ending, to say that he is not afraid in his heart, it is false.
"My daughter married because she really loved Pei Shu, that is, their current prince, and even did not hesitate to enter the palace as a side concubine, but even so, she still failed to get his kind treatment, which shows that the Pei family has a poor character, your daughter heard that she is married to Ling Wangye, you are not afraid that she will ...... in the future" Father Qin looked at the look of the lord of Northern Burma and said tentatively.
The lord of Northern Burma turned pale: "Are you cursing my daughter?" ”
Father Qin panicked, and hurriedly explained: "Where did the lord of the country go, it's just that Pei Shu is so ruthless, but the Pei family hasn't said anything to me at the moment, doesn't this mean that all of them are like this?" Even if you feel that your daughter and Lord Ling are in love now, but after a long time, who can know what will become of it, after all, it took so long for my daughter to discover Pei Shu's true face. ”
"I sympathize with Ling Qianjin's plight, but I can't agree to your cooperation, Northern Burma is not mine alone, and I can't agree to cooperate with you to crusade against Pei because I support you to ask Pei for an explanation. Please go back. The lord of North Burma refused.
Whether he believes it or not, Pei Hao, at least for now, his daughter is still alive in the capital, if he is really stupid to agree to raise troops together, I am afraid that he will never have the opportunity to see her in his life.
After Qin's father left, the lord of Northern Burma summoned his henchmen: "What happened to the people left in the capital now?" ”
"Everything is normal, but what instructions does the lord have?" The henchman asked.
The lord of Northern Burma wrote a secret letter and asked his henchmen to send it to the capital as soon as possible: "Be sure to pass it to the princess, and quickly." ”
The henchman put away the letterhead and asked again: "But it has something to do with the Qin family?" ”
The lord of Northern Burma nodded, although he rejected the Qin clan, but with his understanding of the Qin clan, they would never give up, the eldest son of the Qin clan has always been ambitious, trying to expand the territory, now with such a legitimate opportunity to raise troops, how can he not grasp it.
As expected by the lord of Northern Burma, less than a week after the secret letter was gone, the Qin clan began to expand its army in large numbers because it could not recruit cooperation.
The frontier building quickly spread to the capital, and now the Qin clan has not raised troops to attack, but the generals of the frontier must know the emperor's opinion in advance and prepare early.
"The Qin clan has changed now, what do the Qing family think? Little barbarian, if it really starts, it won't be enough for us to stuff our teeth. The emperor snorted coldly when he saw the music in his hand.
Shen Xiang, the head of the civil officials, did not think so: "Your Majesty, no matter how big or small the war is, it will cost the people and money, and deplete the vitality of the court. ”
Naturally, the ministers all took Shen Xiang's work as the benchmark, and all spoke out at the moment, and the emperor had no choice but to look at Cheng Yiming, the squire of the military department, and General Gu.
Cheng Yiming lined up and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, Shen Xiang's words are true, but if the Qin clan takes the initiative to provoke us, we naturally can't retreat, and the big country must not take the initiative to bow to a projectile land, if we take the initiative to sue for peace, wouldn't we laugh off other people's big teeth." ”
General Gu has been fighting for many years, and he is more experienced in this kind of thing, so he stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, it is really strange that the Qin clan is suddenly like this, their princess is still in the prince's mansion, and they rashly start a war, aren't they afraid of hurting their princess?" This matter still needs to be carefully considered, and it is best to bring Princess Qin Xiaoshuang over and ask. ”
As soon as these words came out, Pei Shu's face turned pale, and the emperor looked at his panicked eyes and knew that something had happened.
