Chapter 167: Intercession
Faced with Mo Guli's questioning, Mo Fangduo chose to escape, but instead asked about Concubine Cheng's situation. "How is Concubine Cheng now?" Although Mo Fangduo was also afraid of Mo Guli, and even had no doubt that he would be kicked out in the next second, he still couldn't help but want to ask about Concubine Cheng's situation.
"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, does it?" Mo Guli looked at Mo Fangduo with an unkind expression, if it weren't for his current identity as the emperor, he would definitely let people beat him so that no one could recognize him. "If I'm not mistaken, your biological mother is the former Concubine Yu and the current Queen Mother, right?"
Hearing the sarcasm in Mo Guli's words, "Naturally, my biological mother is the current Queen Mother, and the regent doesn't need to have any doubts about this." Mo Fangduo replied seriously.
But Mo Fangduo still didn't give up and asked about Concubine Cheng's situation, "What is happening to Concubine Cheng now?" ”
The tea that Mo Guli was about to put into his mouth suddenly didn't taste good, and his hand that was drinking tea paused, and then he put the teacup on the table heavily, making a loud noise. Frightened, Mo Fangduo's heart trembled, and Qijue pinched a sweat for him next to him, he had also seen someone who was not afraid of death, but he really hadn't seen him who was going to die in the end.
On the other side, "Queen Mother, it's not good, it's not good!" A little maid ran into the queen mother's bedroom in a panic.
The Queen Mother glanced at the little girl with some displeasure, "What's the matter?" is so flustered, this is in the royal family, you must be calm and generous, if it is known by outsiders, wouldn't it be to laugh at my royal people for being rude. ”
"Yes, yes, the slave knows that she is wrong." Hearing the Queen Mother's words, the maid immediately knelt down and kowtowed and begged for mercy.
In fact, the Queen Mother is not an unreasonable person, but some rules always have to be established. "Get up, don't make the same mistake next time, you can tell me what happened to make you so flustered." The Queen Mother was also a little curious, what could make her maid so flustered.
"Back to the Queen Mother, the emperor went to the Regent's Mansion and asked the regent to intercede for Concubine Cheng, the murderer who assassinated the princess." The little girl picked up the key points and immediately conveyed all the important information.
Hearing the news of the maidservant, the Queen Mother stood up directly, "What! At the same time, the Queen Mother's heart was also shocked, how good is this. Setting up the regent's palace, I will personally go and bring the emperor back. "The Queen Mother never thought that Mo Fangduo would go to the Regent's Mansion to intercede for the woman Concubine Cheng, but it can only be said that her son is too kind.
"Yes." The maidservant immediately went to arrange the carriage, and in a short time everything was ready.
And the Regent's Mansion has an extremely strange atmosphere, and Mo Fangduo is obviously afraid of it, but he stiffens his neck to protect Concubine Cheng.
"But the regent wants to kill Concubine Cheng to avenge the princess regent?" Mo Fangduo looked at Mo Guli, Mo Guli didn't speak, but it was obvious that he was going to kill Concubine Cheng.
Mo Fangduo was embarrassed when he got this result. If Mo Guli really wanted to kill Concubine Cheng, he was helpless, he still didn't dare to rob Mo Guli of someone, not to mention the question of whether he dared or not, even if he really robbed him, he couldn't rob him. But he really watched Concubine Cheng being killed, and he felt a little unbearable in his heart.
"Even if the crime of becoming a concubine is extremely heinous, it is also a human life after all, can the regent let her live in my face." Mo Fangduo even changed his title, he wanted to use his identity as emperor to beg Mo Guli to let Cheng Fei live.
But when he heard it, Mo Guli's ears changed, "What, do you want to use your identity as the emperor to suppress me?" Mo Guli looked at him coldly, "Since I can send you to that position, I can naturally pull you down from that position." If you don't want to be in that position, there are naturally many people behind you who want to scramble. ”
Mo Guli didn't add anything to what he said, this emperor's position, since ancient times, how many people really don't want to go to that high position? At least he hadn't met a few people who didn't like power.
"I ......," Mo Fangduo's face turned pale, "I didn't mean that." "I just want to save Concubine Cheng. But he didn't dare to say the second half of the sentence, because he had seen Mo Guli's face getting colder and colder, he hadn't seen Mo Guli's angry appearance, but he was also very afraid of the angry Mo Guli, even if he was a former emperor, he was a little afraid of the angry Mo Guli, let alone him.
"Since that's not what it means, then recognize this identity, although I'm not interested in this position, but others are interested, if you don't want to do it, then change to someone else." Mo Guli wasn't looking at Mo Fangduo, he just felt that this person was really a little annoying. Maybe it was really an unwise choice to choose him as emperor in the first place, and sure enough, impulsiveness is the devil, although he doesn't seem to be impulsive.
Mo Guli looked at Mo Fangduo with interest, "But I'm really curious about what you think, what is the relationship between you and Concubine Cheng." He didn't think that they were ordinary concubines and princes, and they dared to come to him to protect people, and if there were no secrets in it, he wouldn't believe it.
"Not really." Mo Fangduo now thinks that it is nothing when he thinks about the things in the past, but thinking about it is very helpful to himself at that time.
"Although I don't know why Concubine Cheng killed the princess regent, the Concubine Cheng I originally knew was not like this, and she was also kind-hearted." Mo Fangduo seemed to be stuck in memory. "The palace is a place without much warmth, and the regent should also be deeply aware of it. When I was very young, even my mother often couldn't go to see me, but I rarely got my mother's love, but I found it in Concubine Cheng, who was actually not a bad person. ”
Mo Fangduo hopes to change Concubine Cheng's image in Mo Gu, "Although Concubine Cheng assassinated the princess regent, the princess regent did not have much of an accident, I hope the regent can spare Concubine Cheng this time." ”
Originally, listening to Mo Fangduo's words, Mo Guli still felt that although Concubine Cheng should die, he didn't expect to accumulate goodness, but why was he so angry when he heard the latter words?
"What's not too much of a surprise? Did you know that she was stabbed in the stomach and almost died? If it's nothing, I really don't know what your big accident looks like. Mo Guli glanced at Mo Fangduo with a cold snort. If it weren't for the fact that he was the emperor, he would have been blasted out a long time ago.
Mo Guli listened to Mo Fangduo's words and became more and more angry, "Bypass her once, then what if she has a next time?" This time, we Mo Xi ordered to pick up a life, and it took three days and three nights to come back from the Hades Palace, and you can guarantee it again. Mo Guli really wanted to pry Mo Fangduo's head open to see what was inside.
Hearing Mo Guli's words, Mo Fangduo's face turned a little pale, he really didn't think of these things, "Believe me, Concubine Cheng won't have a next time." ”
"Heh, there won't be a next time, what guarantee do you have, this accident is already a good lesson from the past, I don't want the next opportunity to appear." Mo Guli's attitude cannot be refused, and there is no room for negotiation at all. "Besides, do you know that Concubine Cheng's actions this time were completely premeditated, and she really wanted to put the princess of this king to death, do you know?" Mo Guli looked at him, and his attitude was unprecedentedly cold.
Mo Fangduo was also a little shocked when he heard the words premeditated, when he had just let the Praetorian Guards catch the murderer and didn't ask who the murderer was, he directly sent it to the princess, only to learn later that it was Concubine Cheng, and he only regretted it at the time. But he didn't find out what was behind Concubine Cheng's murder, and he suddenly didn't understand when he heard him today.
"Lord, the Queen Mother is here." Enlightenment is on the sidelines.
"Let her in." Mo Guli didn't expect the Queen Mother to appear at this time, but he could roughly guess what she was doing.
"Yes."
As soon as the Queen Mother came in, she looked at Mo Fangduo and saw that Mo Fangduo had nothing to do, and the stone hanging in her heart fell to the ground.
"Regent." The Queen Mother said hello.
Mo Guli glanced at the Queen Mother, "What happened to the Queen Mother today, but she also pleaded for this concubine?" "That's right, Mo Guli is just for the sake of people.
The Queen Mother felt a little embarrassed, she sneered, "The regent said that he laughed, I just couldn't find the emperor, I heard that he came to intercede for Concubine Cheng, I specially rushed over to call him back to the palace, and Concubine Cheng's affairs were naturally handled according to the regent's wishes." Since she hurt the princess regent, she naturally has to be punished. The Son of Heaven broke the law, and he was still guilty of the same crime as the common people, let alone a little concubine. ”
The Queen Mother is very good at talking, and she doesn't leak a drop of words.
As soon as the Queen Mother entered the door, she felt the low pressure in the room, and she could think with her toes that it must be her son's inability to speak that made the regent angry.
"Duo'er is still young, if there is anything that collides with the regent and the princess regent, please ask the regent to take care of it more." The Queen Mother took Mo Fangduo to apologize to the regent, she didn't want to have trouble with the regent.
Mo Guli snorted coldly, "Small, it's not small, it's already an emperor." ”
"Yes, yes, the Lord Regent has taught you." The Queen Mother lowered her attitude, which made Mo Fangduo feel a little embarrassed. I feel like a child in trouble, and let the adults come out and apologize.
"If nothing else, I'll take him back first." The Queen Mother said tentatively. Now she just wanted to bring Mo Fangduo back immediately.
Mo Guli didn't say anything, he just waved his hand, but the meaning was obvious.
"Thank you, Regent." Saying that, the Queen Mother dragged Mo Fangduo out, Mo Fangduo wanted to resist, but when he touched the Queen Mother's eyes, he was a little intimidated, and it seemed that no matter what he said today, he would not come out if he was a concubine.
After leaving the regent's palace, the Queen Mother began to teach Mo Fangduo all the way.
"Why didn't you go to the regent today and consult with me beforehand? Do you know how important Jiang Moxi is to the regent, you just ran to intercede, you think you are really a character when you become the emperor? The queen looked at her uncompetitive son with some helplessness.
"If it weren't for the regent to help you ascend to the throne, you're afraid that there would be no bones left to eat by your brothers." The Queen Mother looked at Mo Fangduo and said earnestly. "Then the princess regent is afraid that the regent wants the sun in the sky to shoot it down and give it to the princess, this time the concubine deliberately murdered the princess, and the regent can spare her?"
Although what the Queen Mother said was reasonable, Mo Fangduo was still a little hesitant, "Although the words are so, but the concubine ......" Mo Fangduo was glared at by the Queen Mother before he finished speaking, and he couldn't speak anymore.
The Queen Mother was a little angry when she saw Mo Fangduo's hesitant appearance, couldn't this concubine be worthy of her mother?
