Chapter 82: Some Things Don't Need to Be Said
There are many naΓ―ve people in the world, some of whom are fortunate enough to live a long life in such ignorance, but most of them are unlucky, and they will grow up quickly after a major change, put away all innocent thoughts, and carefully observe everything in the world.
On the first day of the first month of March, it is advisable to marry, and the new emperor of Jokhang marries Mu Roushu, the beloved daughter of Mu Xiang.
This matter is a foregone conclusion, even if some people are unwilling, they can only cry secretly in the room.
Mu Roushu was like a marionette throughout the whole process, she did whatever others asked her to do, of course, her makeup was unprecedentedly good-looking, but she didn't even dare to look in the mirror.
Mother Li looked at her with a smile, because Mu Xiang had ordered her in advance, so she couldn't say anything other than this.
Until she entered the palace gate and went to the emperor's bedroom to wait, Mu Roushu seemed to be unresponsive, unconscious.
Before the emperor came, Mu Roushu asked the waiting people to retreat for the time being, while she quietly looked around.
She had been to the palace countless times, and she could go back at will when she had had enough, but after today, even if she was so tired from playing that she collapsed to the ground, she didn't want to walk out of that palace door half a step again.
But the strange thing is that Mu Roushu did not have any sadness in her heart at this time.
She stared at the incense burner on the desk for a long time, and countless thoughts flashed through her mind at that moment, but in the end they were all suppressed one by one, I don't know if it was because of fear or something else.
Mu Roushu waited in the dormitory for a night, but when the time passed, the emperor was still not seen.
It seems that he is not going to come tonight, Mu Roushu thought to herself, and couldn't help but sneer secretly, too, what can he do when he comes? Can a man who is only in his early thirteenth year old be able to do things?
At the beginning of the morning, when the dark night receded outside the window and gradually began to brighten, Mu Roushu went to bed with her clothes and closed her eyes.
She entered the palace for two days, but she didn't see the process for two days.
The dormitory never saw him come back, but the father-in-law and slaves did not come to drive her away, so she was given the order in advance.
The left and right palaces are so big, where does he stay different? Anyway, it's definitely much more comfortable than this place.
He probably hated being tainted by her, so he didn't want it anymore.
What does that matter, Mu Roushu thought to herself, anyway, she had already stepped on the edge of the cliff.
Life and death are just a matter of thought.
On the third day of her marriage, the atmosphere in the palace suddenly became tense.
The father-in-law and slave saw her all bowing their heads and detouring, even if they often came in to serve her, they didn't dare to breathe, they left when they were ordered, and they could die if they stayed longer.
She had a gut feeling that something was going to happen or was happening, and she was nervous.
Mu Roushu held back all morning, and finally couldn't continue to maintain the appearance of being unpopular since she entered the palace, grabbed a little father-in-law, and forced him to tell the truth.
"Niangniang, don't embarrass the slave, the slave really doesn't know!"
Mu Roushu looked at him with a cold face, "You only have two paths, to tell the truth or to die, whichever way you go." β
The little father-in-law's head clanged, and he cried and said: "Niangniang, you just killed the slave, and the slave can't say one, two, three, aren't you a slave who is embarrassed?" β
This kind of argument is okay for others, and it is still a bit difficult to deceive Mu Roushu.
got up and walked to the little father-in-law, looking at him condescendingly, "If you say it, I promise not to want your life, and by the way, I can also ensure that you will not die because of this incident in the future, but if you really don't say it, I can take your life now," As she spoke, she slammed the teacup in her hand to the ground, quickly picked up a larger and sharper fragment, and suddenly bullied in when the little father-in-law was shocked, and pressed against his neck, his eyes were ruthless, "To say, or not to say?" β
The little father-in-law trembled, and his body began to tremble involuntarily.
Mu Roushu exerted her strength again, and the neck with thin skin and tender flesh had begun to faintly ooze blood.
The little father-in-law felt the pain, and suddenly shouted as if he was too frightened.
"Shut up!" Mu Roushu drank coldly.
was about to continue to ask, but suddenly felt something, slightly stunned, and then she lowered her head, and was surprised to find that a puddle of water suddenly flowed from the place where her little father-in-law was kneeling, and when she looked up, her little father-in-law's trouser legs were wet.
"Are you peeing your pants?" Mu Roushu was really unbelievable.
The little father-in-law was so frightened that his face turned white, this time it was not a question of whether he could save his life or not, he had the audacity to pee in the emperor's bedroom, this must be a capital crime!
"Niangniang spare your life, Niangniang spare your life, Niangniang......"
He knocked his head again, and cried out for mercy.
Mu Roushu withdrew her hand and left the fragment aside, and sneered, "Spare your life? Why do you want me to spare my life? β
"The slave said, the slave said," the little father-in-law cried, "as long as the mother can fulfill the promise just now, the slave promises to tell the mother every word!" β
Mu Roushu achieved her goal, sat back in her chair, and looked at the dampness on the ground with disgust, I don't know if it was an illusion, and the end of her nose seemed to faintly smell the smell of urine with temperature, which was extremely disgusting.
"Say."
The little father-in-law suddenly thought of something, looked at her with a wary look, and finally made up his mind: "Hui Niangniang, Cheng, Prime Minister, gathered a group of civil officials, and brought soldiers from outside the city to force the palace!" β
Mu Roushu's heart sank suddenly, if she wasn't sitting at the moment, she would probably fall down directly!
Forcing the palace!
Mu Roushu's mind was buzzing, forcing the palace, she was suddenly a little dazed, what does it mean to force the palace?
Oh, by the way, it means forcing the emperor to abdicate.
"When did it start?" In a trance, she heard herself ask.
The little father-in-law looked at Mu Roushu's face and replied tremblingly: "Yesterday, yesterday began!" β
"And what's going on now?"
What did the little father-in-law say, "Already, it has been forced to the study, and the emperor is there at the moment." β
Mu Roushu felt a little confused, her mind seemed to have been suddenly poured into a lot of things, and she was overwhelmed for a while, and she couldn't even smell the smell in the room in a hurry.
She waved her hand to pull back, and the room was quiet again, and after a moment of quiet sitting, she suddenly got up and trotted out.
Shuaifu, Ye Huaiyu came back from outside, his face was very bad.
Cheng Jingxi knew that the matter was more serious than expected, but her expression basically maintained a calm posture and asked, "How is the situation in the palace?" β
"The confrontation is still ongoing, but the army that responds is already under the tower."
Cheng Jingxi was stunned, she had obviously given Xie Wanyan an order.
"There are no soldiers in the palace."
"Yes," Ye Huaiyu said, "there is only one guard." β
Cheng Jingxi shook her for a moment, Ye Huaiyu hurriedly supported her, "You ......" but she didn't know what to say.
"Are all the people in the house here?" She looked at him closely, and suddenly asked.
Ye Huaiyu was stunned, but he didn't hide it, "Except for the eldest brother, everyone else is here." β
"Where did Big Brother go?"
"I don't know," he shook his head, "I'm gone early in the morning." β
"Where's the second brother?" Cheng Jingxi asked again.
"The second brother's health has been sick since yesterday, Xu hasn't gotten up yet, the maid has asked, it shouldn't be a big deal." Ye Huaiyu looked at her and asked softly knowingly, "Jingxi, what are you suspecting?" β
Cheng Jingxi frowned slightly, she looked up at him, just one glance, Ye Huaiyu couldn't help but sink in his heart.
"Ye Huaiyu, so far, do you still need me to explain some things?"
And just such a sentence that there is no place in the village and no store in the back of the village made Ye Huaiyu shake, and the hand holding her slowly let go.
Needless to say, everything is already clear.
From the time the emperor decreed it, he understood everything.
The eldest brother and the second brother secretly planned something, he learned about it by chance when he was tracking down other things, and then he had a marriage contract with the princess, in which the joints were suddenly opened, and the unknown things suddenly became clear.
Evidence, they have not had evidence all along.
Therefore, Cheng Jingxi got married in order to collect the so-called evidence.
He actually knows everything, but he has been watching from the sidelines.
Later, the situation developed like this, in fact, he also has his credit.
Mu Xiang led most of the civil officials in the court and stood in front of the study.
They had been standing here for a day and a night, and according to the current scene, they would have to stand for a while.
However, taking a closer look at the crowd, there was no Ye Huaijin standing among them.
The army outside the city arrived today and was on standby.
"Your Majesty, you are young, indiscriminately killing innocents, arbitrary, Shangjing Long Street is still filled with blood, there are still hundreds of unjust souls hovering in the sky, the people are afraid when they hear it, complaining, and can't sleep all night. This is the intolerable nature of heaven, the land is unsafe, and the people's hearts are lost! β
"The minister thinks that the emperor should abdicate and give way to the virtuous, conform to the principles of heaven, and worship the hundreds of dead souls throughout the country, so as to regain the hearts of the people!"
"The Emperor's ......"
From yesterday to now, all the civil officials have gone into battle one by one, saying the same thing, and all of them have dry mouths.
I didn't even bother to drink my saliva.
The palace guards at the gate are still dutifully resisting everyone, and the blades are terrifying, and whoever dares to come forward will definitely be splashed with blood on the spot!
Nagging for a quarter of an hour, it can be summed up in just one sentence, the emperor is re-elected, where do you like!
Cheng Jingheng sat idly in the study, not only ignoring the pressure outside, but also drinking tea very heartily.
There was still a chessboard in front of him, and Marshal Ye Jiming sat opposite.
More than halfway through the chess game, the outcome is unpredictable.
"The marshal's army is almost here, isn't it?" Cheng Jingheng asked casually, and by the way, he left another son.
Ye Shuai said: "It's thirty miles outside the city, and it's coming in a state of encirclement. β
Cheng Jingheng said "oops", "Aren't the group of people outside working in vain?" β
Ye Shuai smiled: "Yes." β
"I originally thought that I would have to make a head-breaking bleed before I stopped."
"How dare the minister let the emperor encounter such a bloody scene, the first emperor left the minister to the emperor, and all the minister can do is to do his best to protect the emperor."
