130, no regrets
It was already dark outside, and a few large candles were lit in the room, and the light and shadow were bright and flickering, reflecting the face of Princess Jinjin, and there was a bit of weirdness between half light and half darkness.
She clasped her hands to her chest, her watery eyes wide open, "What? ”
Xiao Hou's face was cloudy.
Xiao Yuanyou glanced at Princess Jinjin, and the cold light of her eyes made her tremble slightly involuntarily,
"Father, from childhood to adulthood, my son has died a few times, but unfortunately every time he disappoints you. Every time I don't die, I come back to life. ”
"The time I was tied up back then, in fact, it was almost as you wished, I had already stepped into the Yellow Spring at that time, but I was rescued by Weiyun Zhenren's medicine."
"Tsk, you're probably disappointed, I'm sorry."
Xiao Yuanyou thought, maybe this is the fate that was destined from the beginning, if there was no Weiyun Zhenren's pill back then, then he would have disappeared a long time ago.
Not to mention that many years later, going around and going around with Weiwei together, getting married as husband and wife.
"Father, what are you looking at me like this? Could it be that you don't know about this? ”
Xiao Hou looked at Princess Jinjin, the blood on his lips was gone, "Princess, what the hell is going on?" ”
Princess Jin Jin's face was shocked, "Xiao Lang, why are you asking the concubine, the concubine really doesn't know why Gorou put the matter of his kidnapping on the concubine's head back then."
"How long has the concubine been in Dongyuan back then, and where is the manpower? Not to mention bribing Goro's nurse, this is a frame-up, this is a frame-up......
Xiao Lang, this is the excuse he made for today's slaughter. He's trying to get away with it. ”
Xiao Hou seemed to be explained by Princess Jinjin, and said,
"You wicked obstacle, unfilial son, for your own crimes, you can put your father on the reputation of killing your father and the princess as kidnapping."
"Lao Tzu should have strangled you when you were born."
Xiao Yuanyou shook his head,
"Father, in fact, no matter how much you shirk it, it's just that you don't dare to think about it, you can't think about it, you just want to be confused, and be happier than sober."
"You have always been like that, you want to kill your grandfather, you want to get power, but you are afraid, so you did the rest with the help of the princess."
"You may not really want to kill me, after all, I am your biological son, but you also know that I was taught by my grandfather, and I will definitely not be with you in the future, so you know that the princess is wrong, but you turn a blind eye."
"Probably you thought in your heart, anyway, it wasn't your hand, and you can only blame my bad life."
"You probably think how nice it would be if you didn't have this kid."
"It's just a pity, I can't die."
Xiao Hou's whole person stiffened, and he only listened to Xiao Yuanyou's words and words,
"Since that kidnapping, I have suffered many accidents, big and small, but my grandfather blessed me with God and saved me from danger several times."
"It wasn't until later that Your Majesty made it clear to you that if something happened to me, the title of Houfu would come to an end.
"Since then, I have grown up peacefully until now."
Princess Jin Jin was stunned, opened her mouth, and after a long time, she found her voice again,
"You...... What do you mean? ”
That's what it means literally. If I die, the title of the Hou Mansion will be withdrawn by the imperial court! Xiao Yuanyou motioned to Xiao Yi, who had been standing behind him, and made a move.
Xiao Yi's heart was bright, and he immediately untied the long sword hanging on his side, and held Xiao Yuanyou in front of him with both hands, and after he took the long sword, he casually pulled out the sword of a guard and threw it in front of Xiao Hou.
Xiao Yuanyou took the long sword, flipped his wrist, pulled a sword flower, and looked at Xiao Hou lightly,
"You and I are father and son, I have your blood in my body, you can be a beast, but I can't!"
"So, Xiao Yuezhi, today, let's make a fair conclusion!"
Xiao Hou refused to pick up the long sword on the ground, and was heartbroken,
"Yuan You, there are thousands of mistakes, they are all your father's fault, you always have to think about how much your father loved you when you were a child, and he once put you on his shoulders and lay on the ground to give you a horse to ride."
"Can't you forgive the father this time? The Father really knows what's wrong. ”
Seeing that Xiao Yuanyou was unmoved, he suddenly changed his face, as if he was blessed with his soul,
"Your Majesty knows what you did today, right? Aren't you Xiao Qingtian? You are the most just! ”
"Aren't you the most law-conscious? Do you dare to send your father to Dali Temple? Killing one's father and son is a great crime, and it is not an exaggeration to rob one's family and destroy one's family, you are a father's child, and you can't escape. ”
"You don't dare!"
"So I can only take advantage of today, twenty miles away from the city, to create an accident where bandits enter the village, Xiao Yuanyou, you are also a coward."
Xiao Hou laughed as if he had let go.
After listening to Xiao Yuanyou's words just now, Princess Jin Jin stayed there all the time, and at this moment, she seemed to be awakened by Xiao Hou's laughter.
"No!" She screamed, "No, it can't be! It's not fair! ”
"Why? Why? Even if Wulang died, could it be that Xiao Rong and Xiao Jian were not children of the Hou Mansion? Not Xiao Lang's blood and bones? ”
"They can also inherit the title of this marquis!"
Princess Kim Kim is going crazy!
At this moment, May Day for her fell from heaven to hell.
What has she been working hard for so many years?
"You are a flat wife who has no genealogy, Xiao Rong, Xiao Jian is not on the genealogy yet, let alone Chengjue, even a concubine is not as good."
Xin Yi kindly explained to Princess Jin Jin on the side.
Princess Jin Jin cried loudly, "This is not true, this is not true! I am also your wife, the marriage of the first emperor, why are they so unfair to me? Why? ”
She had always known that her marriage was obtained by her unscrupulous means, and she also knew that the boss did not agree.
But she thought that as time went by, there would always be someone who could grind until the old man let go and agreed, even if he couldn't grind, the old man was older than them, and maybe he would return to the west when he would.
When the time comes, Xiao Lang will give her an excerpt and beg for her life, isn't it easy to enter the family tree?
This is more than ten or twenty years, except for the death of the boss, the others are still exactly the same.
Later, she happened to see Xiao Lang bribing the entourage around the boss, and she used this as a lever to blackmail the entourage to report to her everything Xiao Lang asked him to do.
Otherwise, she will go to the old man and denounce him.
After waiting for a long time, Xiao Lang finally asked the entourage to work, but it was just to lead him to the place where the homeless people gathered.
She insisted on marrying Xiao Lang, which made her father and brothers very unhappy, and later after they returned to China, only two people were left for her.
That night, she tossed and turned in bed, and finally managed to get the two men at dawn.
She had long felt as if she had Xiao Lang's child, and she didn't say it, and finally this moment came in handy.
Everything went in as she had envisioned, and the old man went to the homeless man, where he had a lovely child with a well-prepared 'gift'.
Sure enough, it was only an hour or so when she came back, the old man fell ill, and it just so happened that she was a little unwell, Xiao Lang was unprecedentedly considerate, stayed in her yard, and even called the imperial doctor who came to check the old man's pulse to the courtyard to help her diagnose the pulse.
Everything was so perfect, but she didn't want to, in fact, it was just someone else's trap, she jumped into it without knowing it, and she was complacent that it was a good place to visit the scenery.
The old man died, and Xiao Lang really took two folds to ask her for a decree, and at that time she thought that Xiao Lang really loved her and wanted to fight for everything.
Princess Jin Jin shook her head, unable to believe all this.
If all this was an illusion, then the kidnapping that didn't take long was just what she thought was a good show.
At that time, she had a child in her belly, and the doctor said that nine times out of ten it was a boy!
Since she can't be killed, then how can she plan everything for her children!
She devised to bribe Goro's nurse's nephew and convince her, and sure enough, everything went as smoothly as before.
Gorou almost died in Huangquan, but it's a pity, it's a pity, it's just a little bit away from her that little evil obstacle to Gorou.
For many years after that, she either didn't do it, but before she could implement it, she was either discovered by Xiao Lang, or died inexplicably.
She thought that the child was still young anyway, so she could plan slowly.
It's just that if she wants to do it later, Xiao Yuanyou, a little cub, is already surrounded by masters sent by the emperor, and she can't find the slightest flaw in her next move.
And she, who gave birth to children for Xiao Lang with an unknown concubine, was regarded as a laughing stock by the royal family.
Now tell her that all the waiting, all the planning, all of this, is a joke, it's all a void!
She couldn't believe it.
She suddenly screamed, rushed towards Xiao Hou, hugged him, and bit him the shoulder,
"You can't take the title back, absolutely not! This title can only be Rong'er's, I can only say his, I can't do this to me, I'm going to kill them! ”
Xiao Hou screamed when he was bitten by Princess Jinjin, and the blood on his face faded.
"That's right! Kill them! Princess Jin Jin suddenly raised her head, the tears in her eyes had dried, and only bitter resentment and madness remained.
"Kill them! Yes, kill them! Just like back then, why didn't that rabbit cub die? He should have died a long time ago! ”
"Xiao Lang can't give the title to that rabbit cub."
The crazy, resentful eyes were like poisonous snakes in the forest, sticky and disgusting, making people feel cold all over their bodies, and a gust of wind blew, making Xiao Hou's back cold.
Xiao Hou jumped up, and he was about to pick up the long sword that Xiao Yi had just thrown over on the ground, but one hand picked up the long sword faster than him.
The long sword rested against Xiao Hou's neck, and with a slight slash, blood rushed out of the wound, and Xiao Hou was stunned, as if he couldn't believe that all this was true.
Blood splattered on Princess Jinjin's face, and Xiao Hou's body slowly softened and fell to the ground.
For the sake of power, he killed his father and son, drilled camps all his life, wore a mask all his life, and didn't know what the truth was, so he turned into a pool of lifeless flesh and blood.
Xin Yi originally smelled those bloody smells and her stomach was tumbling non-stop, she finally suppressed it, and when she saw this scene, she finally couldn't help but let out a 'wow' sound, and spit out the sour water.
"Slightly ......" Xiao Yuanyou was horrified, rushed to Xin Yi's side, and squatted in front of her regardless of the dirt.
"I ...... You should have been allowed to go back, you shouldn't have seen all this. Xiao Yuanyou blamed himself.
Xin Yi vomited out all the contents of her stomach, and suddenly felt much more comfortable, she wiped the corners of her lips with her sleeve, and smiled at Xiao Yuanyou.
"Fifth brother, it's okay, it's about night, so it's like this. Fifth brother, let's go home! ”
Xiao Yuanyou saw that her face was pale, but he still pretended to be fine.
"Eleven!" Xiao Yuanyou shouted loudly.
Xiao Shiyi was shouted by him and rushed over, "My lord." ”
"Help Madame take the pulse." Xiao Yuanyou stretched out one of Xin Yi's hands.
Xiao Shiyi didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately pinched her pulse and carefully checked her pulse.
After a moment, his eyes widened suddenly, and he touched it carefully, and touched it carefully,
"Your Excellency...... We're going to have a little master......"
"It's not...... I'm going to have little adults......"
"That's not right, I'm going to have a little master."
Xiao Yuanyou was stunned, not knowing what to do or react.
If he knew that Weiwei had a child, he would not have left the city today, let alone done so much killing today.
He doesn't regret it, though.
There was a loud bang outside the door, and then the old lady dressed in soft armor walked in neatly from outside.
"Who is going to have a little master?"
She looked at the corpses all over the yard, and said 'tsk' twice, "Who is this yard, yard it like this tofu block, Ah Qin, after you go back, don't give me tofu this month, especially blood tofu." ”
"Bad boy, you said you want revenge, and you don't do it neatly, this blue sky and white day, won't you choose a dark and windy night?"
"Then I don't know it, but when I came out, I heard that His Majesty had transferred troops over, and they all said that there were bandits here, and they wanted to come and exterminate them."
"Alright, hurry up and pack up."
Xiao Yuanyou was already a little distracted because of what Xiao Shiyi said, and he was even more stunned for a long time, and then he said,
"Yes, grandmother, it's all the fault of the grandson-in-law, can you ask your old man to bring Weiwei back, she seems to have ......"
Xiao Yuanyou, who has always been calm and introverted, will speak a little incoherently, and his voice will be ethereal.
The old lady suddenly 'forehead', and swallowed the following words stiffly,
"With ...... What's ...... You damn child......"
She rushed over and slapped Xin Yi on the back of the head,
"You said you, are you a bit of a mother? You give me back the horse, you are the one who rides, you ...... You...... You ......"
"Quick, quick, fast...... Let the rest of the coolies let the men do it, and we women will hold back, let's go, let's go back......"
"Carriage...... Is there a horse-drawn carriage? Isn't there even a carriage for such a large courtyard? ”
Xiao Yuanyou silently touched the place where Xin Yi was beaten by his grandmother, and glanced at his grandmother with some disapproval.
Old Lady, "......"
She is also excited for a while, and she usually treats Weiwei as a baby.
Hey, the relationship between the two is like this, I don't know if I should worry or not, my own granddaughter, take a picture, my granddaughter is nothing, and my grandson-in-law is not happy at first.
Fortunately, this time, if there were too many, then he wouldn't be called aside by his grandson-in-law to talk?
The old lady frowned, and her heart suddenly had no bottom, for fear that something would go wrong, and she couldn't help Xin Yi out of the yard step by step.
The originally cold and bloody yard suddenly became a little different because a small life was about to come.
The old lady looked at the pile of corpses, said to Xiao Yuanyou with a cold face, and said to Xiao Yuanyou very seriously,
"I know that you have suffered a lot in the past, and the matter has come to this point, so let's not pursue this, but how to get to Your Majesty and how to block the mouth of the world.
Your father is dead, this princess, you look at it, they are the culprits, as for the others, let it go. ”
"Otherwise, how would your behavior differ from that of your father? Now let them fall into the dust, and return what they don't deserve, even if it's for the child in the belly, you shouldn't pursue it anymore. ”
The old lady didn't let Xiao Yuanyou not take revenge, but she was wronged and had a debt, as for Xiao Rong and Xiao Jian and a pair of twin sisters, let it go.
Indeed, children can't choose their parents, if there is no Princess Jin Jin to intervene in Xiao Hou and Mrs. Tai'an Hou, Princess Jin Jin is still a good princess of a country.
In Xin Yi's opinion, Princess Jin Jin was able to ascend the throne, which was given by men.
At the beginning, the old man so resolutely refused the marriage of the first emperor, but Xiao Hou collapsed his backbone first for the sake of power.
And in the end, he still didn't get anything!
In the old lady's opinion, as long as Xiao Yuanyou didn't really kill his father, but was just a guard, his name was not very good.
The emperor will naturally call the shots for this adopted son.
His Majesty is the most soft-hearted person, otherwise why would he have taken him to the Dao Palace to raise him, and he was placed under the queen's knees.
Since then, they have been planning for this adopted son in everything.
It is precisely because of his affection, no matter how unreliable Xiao Hou is, how White Lotus Princess Jin is, the emperor just doesn't let Princess Jin Jin enter the palace, Xiao Hou bears the title of Hou Ye, and there are no other real errands.
I am afraid that Xiao Hou, the old man's parent, will be looked down upon, although there is no real difference, but the reward for the Hou Mansion should be there at times.
Xiao Yuanyou wants to take revenge, the old lady knows it, and she still calls it dangerous in her heart, fortunately, Princess Jinjin solved Xiao Hou and avenged her grandson-in-law's revenge, otherwise he really let him stab his father, even if His Majesty wants to open the net, he doesn't know where to start.
Now, Xiao Yuanyou's scolding and punishment are inevitable, but in comparison, it will definitely be much lighter.
An otherwise bloody revenge ended in this way.
Not long after the old lady came, the people sent by the emperor really arrived, and the leading military general was familiar to Xiao Yuanyou, and Yan Wuming came with him.
The military general and Xiao Yuanyou had a mediocre relationship, and his tone was cold and authentic,
"Xiao Yuanyou made soldiers, almost killed his father, committed such a heinous crime, left and right and I obey orders, if he refuses to be captured, he can be shot."
When Yan Wuming heard this, he was furious, and said in a hoarse tone, "General Lin, what nonsense are you talking about?" When did Your Majesty say that you were going to kill Senior Brother, I just asked you to take him back for questioning. ”
General Lin said,
"Lord Yan, I know that you and Xiao Wulang are brothers, what are you anxious about, didn't General Ben say it, as long as Xiao Yuanyou doesn't resist, that's fine."
"What's more, Your Majesty was furious when he heard that there were bandits on the outskirts of Beijing, but he ordered General Ben to capture his head."
That being said, General Lin didn't dare to let go of the arrows easily.
The old lady caught up with the two children to clean up the aftermath, and at this time she naturally wanted to stand up, she went up and said a few words to General Lin, General Lin's face was a little bad, but he still raised his hand and let people retreat.
Yan Wuming didn't know that Xin Yi was happy, and walked in front of Xiao Yuanyou,
"Senior brother, you're okay, you came out to fight and brought your family with you, right? Look at the slight complexion, it's all white like that. ”
He stepped forward and whispered, "Don't forget, I haven't married yet." ”
Xiao Yuanyou, a grandmother, and a Yan nameless, don't you want him to indulge in such unbearable family affairs?
After Princess Jin Jin killed Xiao Hou, the whole person seemed to be crazy, and kept muttering,
"No, it's not okay to take back the title, the marquis belongs to my family, no one can."
"Xiao Yuanyou, you little cub, why don't you die? Hahaha...... Xiao Lang, you can only listen to me in the future, and you will no longer be able to resist. ”
She picked up the long sword in her hand, looked and looked, looked and looked, and gestured a few times.
Xin Yi had an inexplicable sense of ominousness, and was just about to ask Xiao Yi to snatch the long sword in Princess Jinjin's hand, but when he opened his mouth, he saw a flash of sword light, and Princess Jinjin used the same method as when Xiao Hou died just now, and wiped her neck with a horizontal sword.
The first few children in the back exclaimed, and it was too late to stop it, when they saw the blood in Princess Jinjin's throat rushing out.
People died of exhaustion.
……
Five days after the incident, Xin Yi was ordered to recuperate at home, and she couldn't believe that she really had a little life in her belly.
It's just amazing.
I still remember that the national teacher stopped her from marrying Xiao Yuanyou in the Heart Cultivation Palace.
At that time, I didn't know if he was talking nonsense, saying that once she and the fifth brother got married, she would be disturbed by her relatives and would have no children.
At that time, she was bent on finding her master and wanting to live forever, although she wanted to be with her fifth brother, but she was more curious about Shuangxiu.
In the court, it was boiling for a while, whether it was a big court meeting or a small court meeting, the excerpt of impeachment of Xiao Yuanyou flew to His Majesty's desk like snowflakes.
It's just that although the emperor knows why Xiao Yuanyou did this, it is nothing more than to avenge the old man and the young Xiao Yuanyou.
Of course, killing those guards is nothing, just breaking into his own courtyard and doing such a horrific thing.
Even if Xiao Yuanyou is not held accountable for seeking revenge in private, it is unruly for him to bring so many private soldiers.
There are so many private soldiers, and that is also because the emperor agreed that he has private soldiers, so it is different.
In the end, the emperor couldn't bear it anymore and threw all the impeachment folds back.
"My adopted son, he is my son, but he is just a little private soldier, and he brought so many private soldiers over to take revenge.
Why, after so many years, you know that there is something wrong with his death, and you are not ready to help him avenge him? ”
"Just because it was his own son who killed him with his concubine, you are not ready to pursue it?"
Courtiers, "......"
What can they say?
That's right, the emperor is a very reasonable person, and when he can't be reasonable, he has to reason with an iron fist.
Of course, there are also times when you reason with him, he talks to you about family affection, and when you talk to him about family affection, he compares power with you.
As the lord of the world, he wants to release Xiao Yuanyou, what can you say?
Say he's unconscious?
Really speaking, Xiao Yuanyou is not wrong in doing this, avenging his relatives, sometimes he has to be said to be righteous.
And he didn't kill his father, it was Princess Jin Jin who killed him.
However, in the end, it is necessary to show the ruthlessness of the law, the emperor deprived Xiao Yuanyou of all official positions, and asked him to go to a remote small county town to be a county magistrate, and he could only return to the capital after breaking a hundred cases.
Moreover, because the adopted son and daughter-in-law are pregnant, it is not appropriate to run around, and wait for the child to be three years old before letting the young couple go to work.
As for the children? Oh, stay in Shangjing, he will take care of it.
Anyway, the adopted son has also been raised, do you raise a grandson, and make fun of your grandson, the heavenly family also has this right.
Courtiers, "......"
Speechless!
They are blind in their eyes and deaf in their ears, and they are a little congested when they think of the next birth of Xiao Yuanyou's child, the third day of washing, the full moon, the 100th birthday, the first birthday, etc., and they want to give out a lot of gifts!
What's more, with Xiao Yuanyou's case-handling methods, aren't the 100 cases just caught?
However, there are also clever officials, small counties in the middle of nowhere, and there can be any big cases there, which must be trivial matters.
Xiao Yuanyou may not be able to return to the city soon.
It's just that no one expected that after just a year, Xiao Yuanyou took his wife and children back to the capital.
At the same time, Xin Yi had another one in his stomach.
Ministers, "......"
Their purse! Can't keep it!
