Chapter 108, Yunxiu shows weakness
Didn't he mean to ask me? Recently, although I have behaved no different from usual, I still can't think about Zhao Rongxian after all, he is a smart person, and I can see it at a glance.
Therefore, he didn't deliberately find this matter to talk to me, this is Zhao Rongxian's best method, he always coaxes me like this.
Just like at this moment, I was obviously coaxed by him to speak, how smart did I think I was?
Looking at Zhao Rongxian's eyes with a slight smile, I suddenly felt that I was a fool.
I was a little annoyed for a while, so I didn't answer him, but immediately asked him, "What's wrong with the prince today?" Aren't you comfortable solving these trivial things on weekdays? Why did you ask about the concubine today? ”
Zhao Rongxian was stunned, as if he didn't expect me to ask so suddenly.
He smiled, and sure enough, he found a reason that sounded the most suitable, "This king has indeed always been comfortable in dealing with other things on weekdays, but the mind of this woman in the back house, how can this king have a princess, you understand." ”
He doesn't understand? He knows better than anyone else!
He also came out of the back house, and since he was a child, he has watched the women in the back house compete for the wind and be jealous, and they all fight to the death.
He did it on purpose, he deliberately provoked me to talk to him.
In his eyes, am I really so stupid and so easy to be deceived by him?
If this was on weekdays, I would definitely have turned against him immediately, but now that it's about the second princess, I don't want to waste time.
I just continued to pretend to be confused, I gave him a blank look, and said coldly, "The prince is a figure who covers the sky in the Northern Dynasty, and even if Concubine Hui's maiden nephew has Concubine Hui's support, he is also afraid of you." ”
"If you arrest him and beat him severely, and then tell him that if he really dares to marry the second emperor's sister, you will want his life, and you can have it today and tomorrow! In short, he just can't hide from the first day of junior high school, but he can't hide from fifteen! ”
"If you want him to die, hang yourself, drown in a lake, or burn to death in a fire in your home, there is always a way to let him die!"
Isn't it? If Zhao Rongxian wants a person to die, especially a person like You Zhao who has no power and power, but thinks about eating soft rice all day long, it is like stepping on an ant.
The emperor was so disgusted that You Zhao would not blame Zhao Rongxian even if he knew the truth, maybe he would be so angry that he would directly give Concubine Hui to death!
Although Concubine Hui did her way of committing suicide for her mother's nephew, she didn't really want to die, if she really let her die, she might not dare to die.
If she really wants to die, she can let Zhao Rongxian tell her that if she dies, she will have to let her mother's family die!
In this way, I informed Zhao Rongxian of these thoughts.
After hearing this, Zhao Rongxian pretended to say that my brain has become bright now, but I know very well in my heart that even if I don't open my mouth today, Zhao Rongxian will have a way to solve it.
It's just that the top priority is that I really have to go to the General's Mansion, at least I have to stop it first, so that the second princess and General Weiyuan don't leave.
So after freshening up, Zhao Rongxian and I immediately set off for the General's Mansion.
When Zhao Rongxian and I entered the door, we happened to meet Grandma Sun in Concubine Hui's palace.
Grandma Sun looked very unhappy when she saw me, and seemed to be afraid that I would ruin Concubine Hui's good deeds.
But as an old lady in the palace, she still knows the rules.
When he stopped and saluted Zhao Rongxian and me, "The old slave has seen the four princes and the four princesses. ”
"Excuse me." Zhao Rongxian straightened up, looking very arrogant and a little gloomy.
Seeing Zhao Rongxian's look, Mama Sun was a little afraid, as if she was afraid that Zhao Rongxian would be unhappy and would do something to her.
As soon as he heard Zhao Rongxian say that he was exempt, he stood up and said with a smile, "Fourth prince, if there is nothing to do, the old slave will leave first." ”
"Wait......" Mama Sun had just raised her foot, and Zhao Rongxian suddenly called out to her.
Mama Sun's body stiffened, although she was very reluctant, but she still asked Zhao Rongxian respectfully and politely, "What do the four princes have to order?" ”
"This king heard that Concubine Hui committed suicide with a knife in the palace two days ago, but I know why." Zhao Rongxian had a hint of care in his eyebrows, as if he really cared about Concubine Hui.
Grandma Sun became even more nervous for a while, she gritted her teeth and stammered, "No...... Nothing ......"
"Really? But how did this king hear that Concubine Hui's injury was not light? Zhao Rongxian immediately became more concerned, "Grandma Sun, they are all from their own family, if Concubine Hui has any difficulties, even if she speaks out, why do she have to commit suicide?" ”
Xu is Zhao Rongxian's aura is too strong, even if he is not half angry, it also makes Grandma Sun more and more afraid.
Grandma Sun's forehead was a little sweaty, and her words were even more powerful than if she had just stumbled, "Really...... There really isn't ......"
"Really?" Zhao Rongxian frowned slightly, turned around and said to me, "Princess, this king is still not at ease, it is better for us to go into the palace tomorrow to visit Concubine Hui." ”
When Mama Sun heard that Zhao Rongxian said that she was going to visit Concubine Hui, she immediately became even more flustered, and hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No need for the fourth prince, Concubine Hui has been feeling unwell recently, and she doesn't want to see anyone, and she doesn't know which god killed her, but she is talking nonsense, and the four princes are worried." ”
Hehe, she is so busy refusing, isn't she afraid that people will find out that Concubine Hui committed suicide.
A concubine committed suicide in the palace, it was an unfortunate thing, it was a matter of disgrace to the royal family, and it was serious and it was to destroy the nine clans.
Even though Concubine Hui wanted to threaten the second princess, she didn't dare to let the emperor know.
But if we want to stab the emperor in front of her, she will have to be afraid.
If this is to be stabbed in front of the emperor, it will naturally be stabbed in front of the doctor, and the doctor cannot be the imperial doctor who the palace asked her to buy.
"Grandma Sun, what is wrong with this Concubine Hui? How could it be so serious? I stepped forward, also with a look of concern, "Grandma Sun, I know a miracle doctor, why don't I take the miracle doctor with the prince to visit Concubine Hui in the palace tomorrow." ”
"No...... No need...... "Grandma Sun is still pushing and shouting.
Zhao Rongxian originally hated Mama Sun, and immediately interrupted her when she saw the stitches, "You dog slave, Concubine Hui is so sick, this king wants to visit you and say no, this king wants to ask a doctor for Concubine Hui to ask for a doctor, you are pushing back, what kind of heart do you have!" ”
With a bang, Zhao Rongxian actually pulled out his sword, and the bright sword shook so that Mama Sun trembled a little.
Mama Sun knew that Zhao Rongxian was not easy to provoke, and she knew that Zhao Rongxian was now powerful, her face drooped, and she immediately confessed Concubine Hui, "Fourth prince, old slave...... The old slave is wronged, is ...... It's Concubine Hui who doesn't want to see anyone, and Concubine Hui doesn't want people to see her illness, and this kind of thing has fallen into the ears of His Majesty, and you also know it, Lord Wang, that's ...... That's going to destroy the Nine Clans......"
She admitted that Concubine Hui committed suicide......
Zhao Rongxian saw her admit it, and he didn't poke it directly.
It's just a plausible thing to say a few words to Mama Sun, saying that Concubine Hui must take good care of herself, and don't really destroy the Nine Clans in the end.
Then he said that he would go to the palace with General Weiyuan tomorrow to discuss things with the emperor.
Mama Sun's face turned white after hearing this, and she nodded again and again and said that she would warn Concubine Hui when she went back, and then left the general's mansion as if fleeing for her life.
When we entered the door, the second princess stood in the courtyard with Brother Yu in her arms, and when she saw Zhao Rongxian and me, she was quite surprised, and then thought of something, and said bluntly, "Fourth brother, fourth brother and sister, you don't have to persuade each other, I ...... I couldn't always watch my mother die. ”
I haven't seen her for a while, and the second princess has lost a lot of weight.
It seems that Concubine Hui has been tossing a lot these days, and the second princess at this moment seems to have returned to the beginning.
I stepped forward and shook her hand, and said softly, "Second princess, are you going to ruin your life because of Concubine Hui's unreasonable demands?" If you ruin yourself, if you really insist on making peace, where will you put General Weiyuan? ”
Hearing my words, the second princess couldn't help but redden, she told the nurse to take Brother Yu'er down, and sighed, "You think like this? I didn't want to do that, but my mother stabbed herself with a dagger, and I couldn't see her die. ”
That kind of mother might as well be called to death!
Of course, it is impossible to say this to the second princess......
I also sighed, very helpless, "Second Emperor Sister, you said that you have also made a lot of contributions over the years, and you can handle those court matters clearly, why did the matter come to yourself, but you made such a mess!" The crux of this problem is not in your mother, the root of this disease is in You Zhao. ”
"When You Zhao didn't come back before, did your mother persecute you?"
The second princess understood in the end, and after listening to my words, she was stunned at first, and then asked me, "What are the countermeasures for the fourth brother and sister?" ”
I reached out and poked Zhao Rongxian and motioned for him to come.
Zhao Rongxian looked around, and saw that there was no one, so he lowered his voice and informed the second princess of the countermeasures we discussed in the palace today.
The second princess was still a little hesitant after hearing this, she frowned, quite disbelieving, "Fourth brother, this is ...... Will this work? You Zhao was very hateful, and if he did anything bad to him, he would go to my mother and complain. ”
Zhao Rongxian glanced at the second princess deeply, and was a little speechless, "The second emperor sister just can't let him sue!" This You Zhao himself was degraded before, and he couldn't go back to Chang'an City for the rest of his life, but now he is not only back, but this is also making such a fuss, what do you say if his father knows about him? ”
What will he do, he will be beaten and sent to a bitter cold place, and he will be directly killed with a cane.
But anyone who has a brain knows which way to choose.
Xu was because Concubine Hui committed suicide, the second princess was really frightened, and when she heard Zhao Rongxian's words, she was still a little hesitant.
But who is Zhao Rongxian, he is the person who once tried his best to ascend to the throne, so he naturally had a countermeasure a long time ago.
In fact, it is very simple to deal with Concubine Hui, you only need to threaten You Zhao's life.
Moreover, there are many reasons for the threat, it can be said that You Zhao went back to Chang'an privately to offend him, or You Zhao wanted to insult me, or You Zhao wanted to poison General Weiyuan.
Any one of them can kill You Zhao.
But if anything is pulled on us, Concubine Hui naturally has no way.
It works for her to find death and life for the second princess, but Zhao Rongxian and I hate her, she is looking for death and life for us, maybe we will have to stab her.
After such a discussion, that night, Zhao Rongxian sent someone to arrest You Zhao and put him in the private prison of the palace.
When You Zhao was caught, he was still in Jiyue Tower, and he was talking to a beautiful prostitute, saying that he wanted to take someone as a concubine, but before he finished speaking, he let Zhao Rongxian send a few 'ruffians' in the past to drag them out, and took advantage of the dark moon and high wind, and directly tied them in.
As soon as he saw me, You Zhao immediately started scolding, pointing at me and threatening, "It's you!" You damn slut! Dare to kidnap me, release me! Otherwise, I would have killed my aunt!" ”
You Zhao has always thought that he is superior to me, and now that Princess Yunxiu's affairs are all over the city, he rightly thinks that I have fallen out of favor, so his aunt can take my life at will.
For people like You Zhao, I don't bother to explain anything more to him.
He only smiled and said to Wu Ding next to him, "Stuff your mouth and whip it with a leather whip first." ”
With that, I turned and walked out.
After a while, the sound of whipping was heard, and You Zhao whined.
Zhao Rongxian stood outside with his arms crossed, and when he heard the voice inside, he couldn't help frowning, looked at me with a smile and said, "You are ruthless enough, before you start questioning, you will whip someone first, and you are not afraid of whipping people to death." ”
"Don't worry, you can't die." I leaned lightly against the wall and sneered, "You Zhao is a cheap person like this, you have to give him a little hardship, so that he can feel comfortable......
"Why do I think you're talking about me?" When my voice fell, Zhao Rongxian suddenly interrupted me and said meaningfully, "Ah Huan, do you think I'm also a cheap bone?" ”
He is very self-aware, anyway, Biyou is self-aware.
But I naturally can't tell the truth, it's true that Zhao Rongxian is a cheap bone, but he is not a soft bone.
Moreover, he is also moody. Even if he is not the emperor now, the emperor's stinky problems have not been lost.
I'm not stupid, I don't want to provoke him.
So I shook my head and found an ambiguous answer, "The prince laughed, the concubine didn't say that." ”
"You didn't say that, that's what you thought in your heart......"
"Compared with the prince, the concubine body is a veritable cheap bone." I looked at him, smiled faintly, and looked sad, "How many times have I been hurt, and people have coaxed me a little and then went back, who do you say is more cheap than a concubine in this world?" ”
Hearing this, Zhao Rongxian did not speak.
Whenever I mention the past, he always feels guilty, and when he feels guilty, he doesn't dare to ask those inexplicable things again, he is afraid that I will ask him back.
And I didn't want to anger him at the moment, let alone answer his questions, so I had to deliberately pull up the past to make him feel guilty.
Zhao Rongxian really felt guilty, he looked at me for a moment, and then simply turned around and went inside.
After about a stick of incense, You Zhao shouted that he himself went to tell Concubine Hui that he would not marry the second princess, saying that he would leave Chang'an City immediately.
When I went in, I smelled a strong smell of urine.
You Zhao was scared to pee by Zhao Rongxian? He was on his knees, trembling all over, his crotch wet......
I looked a little embarrassed, and immediately turned around and walked out.
Zhao Rongxian explained a few more words to You Zhao inside, saying that he would let him heal his injuries and then go to see Concubine Hui, and he must not miss the stuffing.
You Zhao agreed again and again, but he didn't dare to say a word.
I suddenly wondered, even if I am not as powerful as Zhao Rongxian, but You Zhao can't suddenly change his hexagram, and he has become so thorough.
I watched it for a long time, and Zhao Rongxian didn't hurt him.
After a while, Zhao Rongxian came out of it.
I immediately leaned up and asked him in a low voice, "Lord Wang, what did you do with that Youzhao?" It was only for a moment that he ...... How did he suddenly become so obedient? ”
The corners of Zhao Rongxian's mouth hooked up with a smile and hooked his finger at me.
I was curious, so I immediately leaned in.
Zhao Rongxian coughed lightly twice, and said softly, "I told him, if he dares to marry the second princess, I will castrate him, if I don't castrate him today, I can castrate him tomorrow......"
"If he dares to sue Concubine Hui, I will go to my father and the emperor to complain and destroy their nine clans."
Hehe, I feel that You Zhao is obviously afraid that Zhao Rongxian will really castrate him, You Zhao is a womanizer, and this castration is worse than killing him.
And if he goes to complain in front of Concubine Hui, Zhao Rongxian will make trouble in front of the emperor again, and he will be charged with a crime casually, let alone him at that time, maybe Concubine Hui will die together.
You Zhao returned to Chang'an without permission to disobey orders, and if he was charged with another crime, he would really die without a place to be buried.
"I also told him that after castrating him, I would give him to General Cao......"
"Poof......" I spat out the candy I put in my mouth.
General Cao is not that ...... Is there a general who has a habit of dragon yang but is extremely perverted?
This General Cao, who was also a member of the Cao family, because he was a broken sleeve, offended the emperor's favorite prince back then, and was ordered by the emperor to cleanse himself, and since then he has been a father-in-law.
The Cao family felt that he was ashamed and expelled him from the family tree.
Later, Zhao Rongxian's father, the current emperor, got closer and closer to Gonggong Cao on the road of fighting for power and profit, and often took this father-in-law to fight, and this father-in-law became the only one among the eunuchs who held heavy soldiers.
After holding a heavy army, Cao's father-in-law, when he has power, uses his private power to search for all kinds of beautiful men. But because of his physical disability, he doesn't pity these beautiful men, but is extremely perverted.
Now that he has retired, his perversion is still undiminished, and if this falls into his hands, it will not be dead......
Such a method can also be imagined by Zhao Rongxian.
"The prince is really a good means!" I gave him a thumbs up and admired him very much, "It is worthy of the scheming fourth prince!" Only you can think of such a method! ”
Zhao Rongxian didn't seem too happy about my compliment, he shook his head and smiled wryly, "I really don't know if you're praising me or scolding me." ”
"Nature is praising you......"
"Alright, it's not too early, it's time for dinner." Zhao Rongxian lowered his eyes and smiled at me, gently held my hand, and then pulled me out.
The moon is also round tonight, and the sky is full of stars, which reminds me of sesame cakes.
Not to mention, being reminded by Zhao Rongxian like this, I feel extremely hungry at the moment.
I grabbed Zhao Rongxian's arm, leaned into his ear and said, "Lord Wang, let's eat sesame cakes!" ”
"Can you make sesame cakes, prince?" I immediately asked again.
Zhao Rongxian was stunned and looked at me in astonishment, "You mean to let this king make cakes for you?" ”
"It's not like the prince hasn't done it before, what's wrong with doing it?" I grabbed his sleeve and shook it gently, and said coquettishly, "What...... The prince doesn't want to? ”
I know that Zhao Rongxian understands that I am dead to him, and I know that Zhao Rongxian knows very well that I am hypocritical and helpless towards him.
But I still have to live well, and I have to sit firmly in the position of the four princesses, so I can't always lose my temper with Zhao Rongxian, more or less, I have to deliberately coax him a little.
Hearing this, Zhao Rongxian really smiled, he touched my head, his eyes were full of helplessness, "I am a dignified prince, a pair of hands that went into battle to kill the enemy, and now you use it to make cakes!" ”
"So, don't you want to?"
"Do I dare or not?" Zhao Rongxian smiled, his eyes were comforting and gentle, and he said to me softly, "However, I have to ask you to help me do it!" ”
I'm really ...... Push yourself into the fire pit yourself! I don't know what time it is when I make sesame cakes at this time.
But since I proposed to eat sesame cakes myself, I have to suffer this retribution myself!
This night, after making sesame cakes and eating them again, it was already midnight.
But for some reason, I didn't feel tired at all, and even, when I made cakes with Zhao Rongxian, I felt much more relaxed than usual.
Born again, in this life, I have never been so relieved as tonight, and I have never been so happy as today.
At that moment, Zhao Rongxian and I were just an ordinary couple, there were no four princes and no four princesses, just a loving couple.
But when I woke up the next day, I was immediately sober again.
Because the maidservant girl beside Princess Yunxiu came, Zhao Rongxian didn't let Princess Yunxiu come over, so Princess Yunxiu sent her maid over.
As soon as her maid entered the door, she knelt down in front of me with a puff, crying, "Princess, please save our princess......"
Let me save Princess Yunxiu? Isn't Princess Yunxiu a good child? Although I was half-dead a few days ago, I can still move around now.
As soon as this got right, she started to be a demon?
I'd like to see, what kind of moth can she provoke?
So I pretended to ignore my previous suspicions and asked her generously, "What's wrong with your princess?" ”
The prince said...... He said that he would send our princess away, and he would send him to the palace. The maid had red circles in her eyes, and wiped her tears as she spoke, "But if our princess goes to the palace, there will be only one way to die." ”
"Why is it a dead end? Can you still be eaten by someone when you go to the palace? I couldn't help but laugh.
The maid cried even harder, "Princess, ...... before. Previously, Princess Yunxiu's competition for favor and poisoning you were all instructed by the queen! The queen said that if the princess can't let you die, the princess will die......"
Hehe? What about her being a fool for me? She had all kinds of hostility towards me before she came into contact with the queen, but now it's good, I'm afraid that I will lose Zhao Rongxian's big backer, so I deliberately showed weakness to me, and I was innocent when I put a basin on the queen's head?
However, I didn't expect that Zhao Rongxian would send Princess Yunxiu away so soon, I thought that the person in his heart was ...... It's Princess Yunxiu, I thought he would still be a little reluctant, I thought I would have to make a few more bitter tricks before he slowly hated Princess Yunxiu.
Could it be that I was overthinking it? But his previous maintenance of Princess Yunxiu didn't look like he was only kind at all.
I glanced at the maid coldly, lukewarm, "You go back first, this matter is not for me to decide alone, when the prince comes back, I will discuss it with him." ”
