Chapter 124: Cause and Effect
Rong Ruizhang didn't expect the situation to change so quickly, but what he didn't expect was the emperor's heart.
After living for two lifetimes, he couldn't see clearly, the emperor who seemed to be mediocre and trusted him very much to reuse him, and finally put him along.
Rong Ruizhang held back in the mansion for several days, and also ordered the four princes to stay in the mansion.
"Looking at the emperor's current attitude, as long as the four princes can calm down, there will be no problem."
Although Rong Ruizhang knew that he was put on the sidelines, he was not stupid, and now the emperor is just standing by, which means that he is still protecting the four princes.
Li Yushi saw that Rong Ruizhang was quite sure, and nodded: "Then the lower official will go to the Four Princes' Mansion and tell the Four Princes to be careful first, so as not to make a fuss about these things again." ”
"I should have taken a trip, but ......" Rong Ruizhang got up politely, it happened that Aunt Jiang had a fetal gas in the past few days, although Rong Ruizhang is not the kind of person who has a long love for children, but Aunt Jiang is different from this child, faintly, Rong Ruizhang has already made up for Aunt Jiang as Wei Qingqing, who once tried her best to be good for him.
Besides, Li Yushi can also be trusted.
But if you miss a lot, things will always hit you head-on when you feel like you can relax a little!
Before going to court the next day, Rong Ruizhang received news like a thunderbolt from the sky.
"What did you say!"
Rong Ruizhang stood at the door, one foot had just stepped out, his face was very pale, and his lips were trembling, but he was not afraid. It's angry!
The little guy who talked back and forth didn't dare to hide it, seeing that he was so angry, he had to say it again: "Li Yushi said that Yushitai has been under the leadership of Wei Yushi, and he wants to jointly participate in the four princes' plots in the court today." Because yesterday, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince actually sent someone to send a large number of gold, silver and jewelry to Rong Minghuo, intending to buy it. ”
"Buying Rong Minghuo? Heh......"
Rong Ruizhang wanted to laugh, he really wanted to laugh, he knew that the four princes were mediocre, and he also hoped that he would be mediocre and then use it for himself. But I didn't expect him to be so fucking stupid!
To buy Rong Minghuo, doesn't that mean telling everyone that Rong Minghuo's evidence is not all true?
But the road has been chosen, and he has no way out.
Doing a good job in the construction of his heart, Rong Ruizhang settled his mind, and instructed as he walked: "Tell the four princes, obediently kneel down outside the Heart Nourishing Palace these days, and the emperor will not get up if he does not let go." ”
"Then dispose of the little maids and all the staff around me, and I will arrange a new one for him." The four princes had to consult Rong Ruizhang's opinion everywhere they did things, and they went to find Rong Minghuo rashly yesterday, and they must have been instigated.
Since you don't have time to check them one by one, let's solve them all.
As for the fourth prince's side, he thought that there was also a Li Yushi, who would definitely be able to explain it to him.
After a pause, Rong Ruizhang added: "Let him not come to me recently!" ”
After that, Rong Ruizhang went to the court, but what he never expected was that this time. Rong Minghuo directly presented the evidence that the four princes and the three princes murdered the crown prince!
The whole dynasty was in an uproar, but the four princes, who didn't know it, listened to Rong Ruizhang at this time, and looked like they had admitted their mistakes, and knelt directly to the Heart Cultivation Palace.
"Haha, that's ......"
The Queen Mother laughed dryly when she heard these news, but her eyes were always gentle but they sank like an ice cellar.
It's stupid!
The Queen Mother glanced at Wei Qingqing, who was sitting obediently on the side and pinched her legs as if she hadn't heard anything, and closed her eyes, she was such a little woman, I am afraid that she is smarter than the fourth prince.
"It's been more than ten days since you entered the palace, so it's boring." The Queen Mother looked at Wei Qingqing with a smile: "I heard that the emperor left Che'er's child in the southwest, can he pass the family letter back?" ”
"I haven't received a letter from my husband for a few days." Wei Qingqing smiled softly, but her thoughts were racing in her heart.
The Queen Mother nodded: "I don't know if something happened, go back to the mourning family and tell the emperor that Che'er is a good child, and you are pregnant, so it's good for him to come back soon." ”
Wei Qingqing immediately stood up and saluted, looking grateful: "Thank you, Queen Mother." ”
"You're also a good boy, by the way, I heard that the eldest princess moved out of the Guogong Mansion? Her temperament knows that she has wronged you. But it's inevitable that there will be friction, don't you say? The Queen Mother looked at Wei Qingqing with a smile, and a ray of sunlight came in through the carved window behind the Queen Mother, so that Wei Qingqing couldn't see the expression on the Queen Mother's face.
But Wei Qingqing understood the queen mother's intentions, in her heart, the eldest princess and the six princes were one, and she and Rong Che were one.
She took the recall of Rong Che as a condition to let them get close to the eldest princess. To be close to the eldest princess is to be close to the six princes.
And this condition is not a negotiation for her, but a threat.
Wei Qingqing looked at the Queen Mother and lowered her eyes slightly: "The death of the eldest brother, His Royal Highness may not have let it go." ”
The Queen Mother's eyes sharpened a little, and she looked at Wei Qingqing, who was obedient and without any edges and corners, and sighed softly: "You are still young, love and hate are too strong, and you are too clear." Alright, let's go down. ”
Wei Qingqing knew that the Queen Mother did not pity Rong Hai's death, and had to tie the eldest princess and the sixth prince to the boat of the Guogong Mansion, and she no longer struggled, and she went to talk to the butcher about conditions and mercy, and she should not have had hope.
Later, the Queen Mother met the Duchess again.
After the Duchess came back, although she was smiling as usual, Wei Qingqing could see the anger in her eyes that could not be hidden.
The next day, Wei Qingqing and the Duchess were sent home.
When Rong Ruizhang saw Wei Qingqing get off the carriage with his own eyes, he knew that this time this hurdle would be difficult to overcome.
Wei Qingqing also saw Rong Ruizhang, standing alone with an umbrella in black.
With a high bundle of jade crowns, the winter snow can't hide his good looks, except for the yin owl on his face.
This time, Rong Ruizhang did not come up to entangle.
Wei Qingqing looked at his complicated eyes and knew that he hoped that he could stop, but after only looking at this one, Wei Qingqing walked away directly, without even half a minute of pause.
Rong Ruizhang silently turned around and left when the last corner of her clothes disappeared at the door.
"Now these four princes are afraid that it will be difficult to turn over, and they will ...... with his appearance."
As soon as Lan Zhi entered the house, she gloated.
Don't blame her for that. She was very disgusted with Rong Ruizhang, and the self-righteous entanglements in the past caused Wei Qingqing to suffer a lot of gossip.
"Don't underestimate him."
Wei Qingqing knows Rong Ruizhang better than everyone, a person like him will never admit defeat, and he does not have the courage to admit defeat.
If he doesn't have to turn over at all, only if he dies, he can't turn over when he goes to the coffin.
It didn't take long for the emperor to order to be transferred back to Rong Che.
The fifth prince also wrote a book, begging the emperor to have mercy on the eldest princess for many years and let her out.
The emperor only hesitated for one day before agreeing to the request of the five princes.
When Rong Ruizhang knew, he was sure that the four princes had planted it.
Hurried to the Four Princes' Mansion, he thought, it was not a dead end, but as soon as he arrived at the gate of the Four Princes' Mansion, he saw Li Yushi.
"Li Yushi, you are just right here, go with me to see His Highness."
Rong Ruizhang said that he was about to go inside, but was stopped by the people from the Four Princes' Mansion.
Rong Ruizhang was puzzled: "Wait for bold!" ”
"It's bold."
Li Yushi still had the same respectful attitude as before, but his words made Rong Ruizhang's face instantly darken.
Rong Ruizhang stared at Li Yushi gloomily, and after a while, he seemed to understand: "It's you?" ”
Just two words, Li Yushi knew what Rong Ruizhang was talking about.
He didn't deny it, but there were some things that he couldn't say too clearly.
Rong Ruizhang only felt dizzy in his head, if it was really Rong Minghuo who Li Yushi asked the four princes to bribe. The advice he gave to the four princes before that, he can imagine what it has been distorted by Li Yushi.
On the contrary, the fourth prince is a mediocre person, and he will never detect Li Yushi's betrayal!
"Why?" Rong Ruizhang didn't understand: "You obviously married your daughter to the Fourth Highness. You won't know what it means to the Fourth Highness to do this! ”
"Rong Xiangke still remembers a person named Guo Qing?" Li Yushi asked. March Chinese
Of course Rong Ruizhang remembers, but what does this have to do with Guo Qing?
"Could it be Wei Qingqing?" Guo Qing is Wei Qingqing's person, and Wei Qingqing hates himself so much......
didn't wait for Rong Ruizhang to finish thinking about it, but Li Yushi couldn't help but laugh.
He looked at Rong Ruizhang with pity, the kind of eyes that saw the sinister world of the world, and looked at the junior in front of him with pity.
"What do you have to do with a woman? Or is it that the young genius Prime Minister Rong, the biggest enemy in his heart, is actually a woman who can't ask for it? ”
Li Yushi seemed to have lost interest: "There is a lot of help for the righteous, but there is little help for the unjust, the appearance is fine, let's go back early." ”
After the words fell, he had already left the Four Princes' Mansion and left.
Rong Ruizhang didn't know why, and he wanted to break into the Four Princes' Mansion, but he never got in.
At this time, Wei Qingqing looked at Guo Qing, who had finally woken up, and looked at him, an old man, talking about Li Yushi with red eyes, and also felt that God was making people.
Who would have thought that his rival in love at the beginning had already mixed up from a little-known son of a family to today's Li Yushi, and Li Yushi still remembers the white moonlight that he once couldn't get?
"It turns out that you have always refused to tell me who killed my whole family in the first place, because that person is already dead!"
That person was not an outsider, it was the uncle of the fourth prince.
After the death of the biological mother of the fourth prince, this person still did not know how to restrain. There is also a prince and nephew, who is doing evil everywhere.
And the reason why he killed Guo Qing's family was also simple and ridiculous, just because when he passed by Guo Qing's hometown once, he molested a woman from a good family, and was seen by Guo Qing's little daughter and scolded 'dog official', that's all.
At that time, it was his elderly mother who took Guo Qing's youngest daughter.
At that time, the old mother was punished by him to kneel down and kowtow thirty heads, and her head was broken, and her head was covered with silver frost, and she was covered with dust mixed with blood, but he kicked it over, and even fell to the ground and lost her life.
But he was not satisfied, it seemed that in order to show his majesty, that night, taking advantage of Guo Qing's absence, a fire burned the entire Guo family.
When Guo Qing went back. only to find that the doors and windows were nailed to death from the outside, and the family was burned alive.
If such a tragic thing happened, it should have been heard by the heavens, but it was suppressed by the four princes, and even assassinated two petty officials who wanted to preside over justice and killed the whole family.
At this point, everyone kept their mouths shut, even if Guo Qing threatened with his life, no one dared to tell him the truth.
How ridiculous!
"At the beginning, the old man Li asked me what to protect Chun'er, I thought that a sharp sword and a pair of fists were enough, but now I realize that only by wearing that official hat can human life be fate." Guo Qing looked at Wei Qingqing, with indescribable regret in his eyes, and a trace of confusion.
Wei Qingqing knew that there was nothing to comfort him except for revenge.
"Wait a minute, the fourth prince is almost gone, as soon as his big tree falls, the monkeys under his protection will also disperse, they are so ruthless in punishment, when the time comes, you don't have to take action, someone will kill the uncle of that country."
Guo Qing listened to Wei Qingqing's words, and he was depressed for a long time before finally spit out a little.
Wei Qingqing glanced at the pothos who was standing aside and also followed by red eyes, smiled, and asked her to take care of Guo Qing. And he came out.
As soon as he came out, Wei Qingqing's face darkened, and he directly called Leng Yin out.
"First, immediately send the news to the second master, Helian Zifeng found out that Grandpa Guo has been investigating his affairs, and Grandpa Guo is out now, I am afraid that it will be dangerous."
"Second, Helian Zifeng knows that we have discovered the secret of the Zhu Mansion, and I am afraid that we will rebel against our army, and the Zhu family must leave Beijing immediately. Ask him to go to Zhu's house. ”
Leng Yin responded, but after seeing Wei Qingqing's instructions, he kept walking out, a little uneasy: "Where are you going?" ”
Wei Qingqing's face sank, and her heart was indescribably complicated.
"The Wei family."
"Anyway, in Yuqian Lane, I'll send you over......"
"It's another Wei family!"
That's why Wei Qingqing's face is so ugly.
As soon as she thought of seeing her unsympathetic father again, Wei Qingqing only hated her whole body!
But now I have to go, and I can't afford to delay.
When Wei Yan went to the private room of the restaurant to see Wei Qingqing, he paused in surprise. But he was sure that he was not wrong, and Wei Qingqing did not show surprise, she deliberately invited herself out in the name of Wei Xun.
"What does the young lady have to say to the old man?"
Wei was displeased, but he didn't quit.
Wei Qingqing lowered her eyes and looked at her own reflection in the teacup, and said softly: "Does General Wei believe in fate?" ”
"Life?"
Wei Yan sneered: "Young lady, the old man doesn't have time to talk nonsense with you here." ”
Even though Wei Yan was so rude, Wei Qingqing's expression was still faint: "It seems that the general doesn't believe it, he doesn't believe that there is a predetermined number of lives in this world, and he doesn't believe in the words of resurrection from the dead and the reincarnation of the soul." ”
"Natural ......"
"But Daddy believe it or not, it's all true, when I was young, my father gave Qingqing a stone, saying that it was brought back from the battlefield, the mascot, the daughter was very happy, and when the mother was seriously ill, the daughter naturally gave the mascot to her mother."
Wei Qingqing's tone was extremely calm, but if she looked closely, she could see the turbulent waves under her eyes: "Not long after, my mother was gone." ”
The matter of the 'stone' is only known to Wei Yan and Wei Qingqing, and this is a secret between them.
"How do you know about stones?" Wei Yan asked in a cold voice.
"This is fate, even if I don't give that 'auspicious' to my mother, my mother will definitely receive the 'auspicious' thing from my father, she is destined to live that winter, because in three months, the Qu family, who has not yet left the cabinet, will get married, right?"
After Wei Qingqing finished speaking, she looked up at Wei Rampant with a smile: "Yes, Daddy." ”
Wei Rampant looked at Wei Qingqing, who was smiling in front of him, as if his throat had been choked for a while, and he couldn't say a word.
After a long time, he finally came back to his senses, but his gaze at Wei Qingqing was even colder: "I'll just say that every time I see you, I have a familiar feeling, it turns out that there is such a thing as snatching away in this world, even so, you evil spirit should have gone to hell a long time ago!" ”
Let's talk about it. He went up the mountain and pushed open all the windows, as if he wanted Wei Qingqing to shine into the sun.
But the warm sun in the afternoon sprinkled on her red embroidered white plum cloak, giving her a layer of warm yellow light that seemed warm but extremely cold.
Her head tilted slightly, as if she still hid her former youthful childishness: "Daddy, look ahead." ”
Wei Rantian had a gut feeling that something was wrong, but he had thought that he was clinging to his daughter firmly in the palm of his hand like an ant. At the moment, he couldn't see through it.
In an instant, the sound of a sharp blade breaking through the air came, but it was not aimed at Wei Yan, but Wei Qingqing.
Wei Yan was surprised, and then looked at Wei Qingqing, who was standing there steadily, and reacted instantly, now that the window is wide open, Wei Qingqing is a little injured, and when he says it, he is afraid that he will think that he is disrespectful to the old man, and he will also affect Wei Qingqing!
The cunning Rong Che who was hiding behind him didn't know how he would use this to suppress the General's Mansion!
Wei Yan snorted disdainfully: "Carving insect skills!" ”
As he spoke, he quickly flew to Wei Qingqing and easily pinched the sharp arrow, but the words had not yet fallen. Listening to the sound of puffing into the flesh, a dagger sharpened like clay had directly pierced Wei Yan's heart.
The one who did it was the noodle maid beside Wei Qingqing.
"You ——!"
"Daddy, I deceived you about that stone just now." Wei Qingqing appeared quietly in front of him like this: "I always thought that my mother was really worried, she became ill and died, that stone, not long after my father gave it to me, I lost it, I was afraid that my father would be sad, and I never mentioned it." ”
Wei Qingqing watched Wei Yan's face soften instantly, and the tears in her eyes finally overflowed.
"If I hadn't confessed it just now, wouldn't you have killed me?" Wei Rampant has been on the battlefield for a long time, and although he is old now, he is still stronger than ordinary people, and he has not panicked from beginning to end.
"Whether we admit it or not, it won't change today's results. Helian Zifeng is crazy, if he is allowed to sit in that position, the capital will be a river of blood, so you who secretly collude with him must die. ”
After Wei Qingqing finished speaking, he saw the mockery in his eyes and smiled: "I know that Daddy's heart is different from others, it is on the right side, so on this dagger, there is a secret poison from the palace." ”
Wei Yan hurriedly looked down, and immediately pinched Wei Qingqing's neck with a blue face, but Wei Qingqing did not dodge it at all: "You died today, because General Wei accidentally discovered that there were assassins around the young lady of the Guogong Mansion and sacrificed his life to protect him." After all, the assassin didn't know that you were in the heart, and the stabbing was on the left, and killing you was a pure accident, and no one would suspect it. ”
"But if I die, none of the dozen or so concubines in General Wei's Mansion who shed your excellent blood will survive." Wei Qingqing looked at him with a smile: "General Wei, you must know how to choose." ”
