Chapter 838: Intimidation
Chapter 838: Intimidation
Duan Shao climbed the steps and bowed to Longtai in front of him, and then handed over the red silk in his hand.
As far as the country is concerned, Longtai is the emperor of the Great Chu Empire, but in private, Duan Shao is also Longtai's brother-in-law, so Longtai took the red silk and nodded slightly to Duan Shao, Duan Shao saluted again, bowed and retreated to the side.
At this time, Sima Yunqiong supported one foot by herself, and the two palace maids on the left and right supported her to go up, but every time she took a step, Sima Yunqiong couldn't help but let out a painful scream, Sima Chang was cautious so as not to be too ugly, and beckoned the palace maids on the side to crowd around Sima Yunqiong and surround her in the middle, so as to cover Sima Yunqiong's embarrassed appearance.
Longtai was condescending and quietly looked at Sima Yunqiong's side.
If it was someone else, Longtai would have already led Princess Tianxiang away, but Sima Yunqiong is from the Sima family after all, but Longtai is also quite forbearing, just standing on a high place and waiting for Sima Yunqiong.
Thirty-six steps, Sima Yunqiong has already climbed the general, but the next dozen steps are really like a mountain of swords and a sea of fire for Sima Yunqiong, and she endures the pain and walks up.
When Sima Changshen handed over the red silk to Longtai, Longtai glanced at Sima Yunqiong, but didn't say much, turned around and led the queen and Sima Yunqiong to the palace.
The next many procedures only need the participation of some officials of the Ministry of Rites of Yuan Lao Shangshu, and the ministers just need to wait outside the hall, which is not a bad thing for Qi Ning.
The emperor's wedding is not like ordinary people getting married, and the etiquette is cumbersome, if you watch and wait on the sidelines, it will undoubtedly be a torment for Qi Ning.
The officials of the Ministry of Rites entered the hall to continue the next ceremony, and Qi Ning and other officials breathed a sigh of relief, and the body that had been tense just now also relaxed at this time.
Dou Kui looked at the sky, from the morning tossing to now, it was already noon, he glanced at Qi Ning, and saw that Qi Ning was also looking at him, the two looked at each other, but they both knew it.
Today is the day of the emperor's wedding, and for Qi Ning and Dou Kui, there is still one important thing to complete today.
The treasures in the treasure room of the Buddha Hall of the Huainan Wangfu are worth a lot of money, yesterday the household department transported a large number of property, in the eyes of outsiders, the copy of the Huainan Wangfu has ended, Qi Ning and Dou Kui have planned to take advantage of the emperor's wedding, and secretly transfer the treasures of the treasure room tonight.
"What are you thinking?" Qi Ning was muttering to himself, a voice came from the side, Qi Ning turned his head to look over, but it was Su Yu who came over.
Qi Ning didn't have a good impression of Su Yu, but he didn't have much hatred, he smiled faintly, and said: "Marquis Wuxiang, after the emperor's wedding, the prince of Dongqi should lead Dongqi to send the family delegation away, and your eldest lady Su should also go to Dongqi with her, right?" ”
Longtai has already given Su Zixuan to marry the prince of Dongqi, and the prince of Dongqi has also promised to canonize Su Zixuan as the princess of Dongqi, which is a very glorious thing for Su Yu, and said with a smile: "I am already making preparations, but I don't know who the emperor will send to send his relatives over." ”
"I think Wuxianghou is the most suitable." Qi Ning said with a smile: "The Marquis of Wuxiang is the hereditary candidate of Great Chu, and it won't be long before he is the head of the Eastern Qi Dynasty. Approaching Su Yu's ear, he lowered his voice and said: "Although Dongqi is a small country, I heard that there are many rare and strange treasures, and they will never let Wuxiang Hou return empty-handed when the time comes." ”
Su Yu suddenly laughed, looked left and right, and then leaned in and said in a low voice: "Jinyihou, today's matter, you have done a little too much." You can see just now, Sima Lan's father and son's faces have always been ugly, and this time you have offended them to the bone. ”
Qi Ning let out an "oh" and said softly: "Could it be that there is still a mistake in maintaining the etiquette system of the imperial court?" ”
"This ..... Naturally, yes. Su Yu said softly: "I don't blame you, young people are motivated to do things, that's not a bad thing." He looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "It's just that if you do this, you will make the Sima family lose face today, that father and son are people who will report their flaws, they will definitely be a thorn in your eye, and they will definitely make you stumbling everywhere in ......the future!" ”
Qi Ning said in a low voice: "Is Wuxiang Hou taking care of me?" ”
"It's not about care." Su Yu sighed lightly: "But after all, you and I have a deep relationship, and your father is not here, so I can remind you that you naturally can't pretend to be stupid." Qi Ning, you have to remember that relying only on your brocade clothes and Qi family is not the opponent of the Sima family at all. He lowered his voice and said: "Fortunately, the Sima family is arrogant, and there are many people in the court who are not pleasing to the eye, and you will not be alone if you are closer to these people in the future." ”
"Alone?" Qi Ning smiled and said, "Wuxiang Hou, I don't understand what you say. ”
Su Yu said: "I mean that those officials in the court who oppose the Sima family, you can take care of them more, and with their help, you will not be isolated in the court." ”
"Wu Xianghou is talking about yourself, right?" Qi Ning said softly: "Do you feel that the situation is not good, and you want my Jinyi family to take more care?" ”
Su Yu's old face flushed and said, "What do I have to worry about, why do I need your care?" ”
"Wuxianghou, with all due respect, what do you think the Sima family thinks of you?" Qi Ning said in a low voice: "Do you know that you made a big mistake today. ”
"Error?" Su Yu was stunned, "What mistake?" ”
"Please, turn your head and see what our Zhenguo Gong is doing now." Qi Ning said leisurely: "When you see him, you understand what mistakes you have made." ”
Su Yu was puzzled, looked around, looking for the traces of Zhenguo Gong, and soon saw Sima Lan in the distance with his hands behind his back, looking at this side from a distance, Su Yu's eyes just met Zhen Guogong, Sima Lan looked away very naturally and quietly, but Su Yu was heartbroken.
"Understood?" Seeing Su Yu's slight change of color, Qi Ning chuckled and said, "Wuxianghou, your mistake is that you shouldn't have come over and say this to me." When you came over, the people Zhen Guogong stared at this side from beginning to end, think about it, the Sima family regarded me as a thorn in the flesh, but you didn't know how to whisper with me here, guess what Zhen Guogong thinks now? ”
Su Yu looked around and found that all the ministers were gathered together in groups of three or five, but he was the only one standing with Qi Ning, and the most terrible thing was that the surroundings were empty, and everyone saw the two of them whispering.
Su Yu smiled dryly: "That..... That's no .....! ”
"Wuxiang Hou is wrong." Qi Ning said in a low voice: "If I were the Duke of Zhenguo, I must think like this, your Marquis of Wuxiang first got very close to the King of Huainan, and the King of Huainan fell, and you leaned together with the Jinyi Qi family, which made it clear that you would fight against the Sima family to the end, do you think the Duke of Zhenguo will feel comfortable?" Hehe smiled and said softly: "The Sima family has lost face this time, and they really want to find a chance to save face, the best way is to bring down an important opponent, so that they can regain their authority in the DPRK, do you think this is the truth?" ”
"Who are you talking about?" Su Yu's eyebrows showed obvious worry.
Qi Ning smiled and said in a low voice: "Of course Wuxianghou thinks it will be me, but in my opinion, anyone is possible, but it is impossible for me." ”
"Oh?" Su Yuqi said: "Why? ”
Qi Ning glanced at Sima Lan on the other side, and then said softly: "Of course, the Sima family wants to get rid of me quickly, but it's a pity that they don't have that ability now." Don't forget, although I don't have much qualifications, the signboard of the Jinyi Qi family is not fooling. Now I still have at least the Black Scale Battalion in my hands, and in addition, there are many people in the Qinhuai Legion who are the old subordinates of the Jinyi Qi family, no matter who wants to move the Qi family, they must think about the consequences. ”
Su Yu was silent, knowing that what Qi Ning said made a lot of sense.
Although many ministers in the court and the central government worship under the Sima family, and Sima Lan is also in charge of the government, the strongest blade in the Sima family's tezuka is nothing more than the black knife battalion.
If the Sima family really had completely controlled the court and had no scruples, then they would not have endured great shame today.
The Sima family still has scruples in the court, there are nothing more than two forces, one is the Jindao Tai family, and the other is the Jinyi Qi family, just because these two families have military power in their hands, and the time is not right, the Sima family naturally does not dare to act easily.
"Although the Golden Dao Tantai family is low-key, and its influence in the court seems to be declining, but the East China Sea Master is in the hands of the Tantai family, and the Sima family does not dare to act rashly." Qi Ning said in a low voice: "The four hereditary candidates, only you, Wuxiang Hou, have no military power in your hands, and if the Sima family wants to regain its authority, it is natural to find an opponent with a very high status, Wuxiang Hou, can you understand who this person is now?" ”
Su Yu's eyelids jumped: "You..... Do you think the Sima family will ..... Will it deal with me? ”
"I'm just guessing, it's good for Wu Xianghou to go back and think about it himself." Qi Ning smiled incomprehensibly, "Yes, Wuxiang Hou, since I have said this, I will simply explain it to you." In fact, the so-called isolation, I really don't care, the Jinyi Qi family is loyal to the imperial court, if someone deliberately deals with the Qi family, even if it is only me, I will not give in. So of course I'm not going to go around begging people to stand with me, but...... If the Sima family really wants to deal with your Su family, with the current strength of the Su family, I am afraid that they will really ask for someone to protect ......! ”
The corners of Su Yu's mouth twitched, and between Qi Ning's understatement, it was a sentence that pierced Su Yu's weakness.
At this moment, they heard the sound of footsteps, and the two of them followed the sound, but saw Sima Changshen walking over here, Qi Ning was calm with his hands behind his back, but Su Yu was a little nervous.
Sima Changshen glanced at Qi Ning, then looked at Su Yu, and said with a faint smile: "Marquis Wuxiang, Ling Yan will marry Dongqi in a few days, today's emperor's wedding, many etiquette Wuxiang Marquis can pay more attention, it will be your Su family's turn immediately, be prepared." With a soft snort, he walked away slowly.
Su Yu looked at Sima Changshen's back, his expression became extremely stiff, his lips moved slightly, but he couldn't say anything.
