Chapter 63: The Human Heart

After King Tai and King Ji fell into the water and returned to Beijing, the atmosphere in Beijing immediately became strange again, and the two princes once again lived in the palace in a grand manner. After the diagnosis of the imperial doctor, the king of Taiwan is fine, but he is too frightened and needs to recuperate; But King Ji was more troublesome, he hit his head on the board of the boat when he fell, and he remained unconscious after being rescued.

After receiving the report, the Queen Mother was furious and ordered Zhou Xin and others to quickly solve the case and find out the culprit who hurt the two kings, and at the same time ordered Yu Xin, Xu Kai, Cao Yushu and others to conduct a large-scale search and arrest inside and outside the capital to eradicate all the chaotic parties.

Yu Xin and others took the opportunity to check all the inns, halls and halls in Beijing, and indeed gained a lot, not only defeated some gangsters and bullies who were very angry with the people, but also arrested some remnants of the White Lotus Sect and Japanese bandits, but other than that, there was not much gain.

And Zhou Xin was not idle, under his order, Hu Ying, Ji Gang and others conducted a thorough investigation of some abandoned mansions in the capital, and sure enough, some clues were found in the Liangguo Mansion, that is, Lan Yu's mansion......

Kaifeng, heavy snowfall.

"Pink, pink!"

The dozing maid Pink gave a stirring and hurriedly rushed to the side of the bed and helped a gray-haired woman up. While tucking the quilt for her, Peach asked in a low voice, "Auntie, how are you, are you feeling better?" ”

"Much better, Pink, how long have I been asleep? What time is it? ”

"Now?" Peach hesitated for a moment and said, "It's past the end of the day, and the eldest aunt has been sleeping for seven hours." ”

"So long?"

"Yes, the doctor said that the eldest aunt was weak, and she couldn't sleep at night, so she added some drugs to calm the nerves and relieve sleep, and it was really effective, and the eldest aunt slept at this time for the first time, how about it? Feeling better? ”

"Well, it's much better, by the way, what about Miaojin?"

"The third lady came over in the morning, when the eldest aunt was still asleep, and she stayed for a long time before leaving. When leaving, she said that as soon as the eldest aunt woke up, she would quickly inform her. Speaking of this, Taohong patted her head as if she had suddenly woken up, and said, "Oh, I forgot, I have to hurry up and tell the third lady that the eldest aunt has woken up." ”

With that, Peach rushed to the door and shouted a few times before coming back.

……

"Sister, are you better?"

Not for a long time, Xu Miaojin hurriedly walked in, the white fox fur on her body was floating with a layer of snowflakes, she first handed the fox fur to the maid, and then sat in front of Xu Yihua's bed, carefully observed, and then breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Sister, you suddenly fainted, it really scared me to death, thanks to the lady concubine, with her coming forward, the hospital sent the doctor to come to diagnose the patient, look at my sister's face, the medicine of the doctor should be quite effective." ”

"Sister is fine, alas," Speaking of this, Xu Yihua gently took her sister's hand: "Huizu and Zengshou are not here, my sister is a sick man, I don't know how long I can live, it's really difficult for you." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, my sister will definitely live a long life!"

"Silly sister, my sister's own body knows by herself, and my sister only hopes to see you in a red wedding dress before closing her eyes!"

Hearing her sister's words, Xu Miaojin's face darkened, and the index finger of her right hand was tightly clasped on her thumb, and she didn't speak.

Xu Yihua hesitated, turned his head and said, "You all go down." ”

"Yes!"

"What's wrong? Miaojin, tell my sister about it, what's going on? ”

"Sister, the emperor, the emperor, he," Xu Miaojin suddenly cried out with a "wow": "He doesn't like me anymore!" ”

"Don't cry, Miaojin, don't cry," Xu Yihua was also a little panicked, and hurriedly patted her sister's back: "What happened?" ”

"Sister," Xu Miaojin sobbed and said, "You know, when the third brother was scolded by the cane, I went to the emperor to theorize, hoping to let the third brother recover from his injuries before leaving, but I didn't expect the emperor to say that I was a woman, and since then, I have been angry and no longer see him." ”

"But, since then, I have not seen him again; Yesterday, my sister was sick, I originally wanted to beg him to send a doctor, but I didn't expect Liu Zhen to say that the emperor was rehearsing songs and dances in the palace, and he didn't have time to see me, so I had to beg Concubine Niangniang to ......"

Looking at the pear blossom with the rain, Xu Yihua's eyes showed a strange light, she was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "Sister, maybe this time, our Xu family is really going to be in trouble!" ”

"What do you mean?" Hearing her sister's slightly eerie voice, Xu Miaojin couldn't help but shudder, she had a feeling of being targeted by evil ghosts: "Sister means ......"

Xu Yihua sighed and said, "Alas, it's my sister who has affected you, but it's a pity that Huizu fought for his life and couldn't save the emperor's heart." ”

"Why does the emperor want to deal with us? Isn't it all in the past? Xu Miaojin was stunned.

"Hehe, Miaojin, do you know why you have made great contributions to increase your longevity, not only are you not rewarded, but you are also scolded by the rod?"

"Isn't it because you killed the Mongolian concubine?"

"Hehe, a concubine, kill it, kill it, the Mongols are no longer what they used to be, no matter what, the longevity increase still brought back the Mongolian Great Khan, although it can't be compared with the blue jade, but it can be regarded as a miracle in the world. But how does the emperor treat longevity? In fact, the reason is very simple, when your brother-in-law raised the army, Zengshou was the governor of the Chinese army, and he was familiar with the military situation in Beijing, and he once revealed these situations to your brother-in-law, and these things were clear in the emperor's heart. ”

"What?" Xu Miaojin was stunned: "The third brother has done this kind of thing?" Does Big Brother know? Also, how could the emperor know? Did you do things with a tail? As she spoke, Xu Miaojin's body trembled.

"Hehe, Ge Cheng and Zhang Fu betrayed, and the emperor naturally knew everything. In addition, Huizu should also know, otherwise he would not personally lead the troops to attack Helin, and he also deliberately brought Zengshou, he should want to make Zengshou make the credit for the crime, but my sister really didn't expect that even if he made the merit of capturing the Mongolian Khan, the emperor did not let go of the intention of increasing his life. ”

"This, this," Xu Miaojin had woken up from his resentful thoughts and felt chills all over his body: "Could this be the reason why the emperor alienated me?" Could it be that the emperor is going to do something to the Xu family? ”

"It's very likely, it's a pity that Huizu is still in the dark, it's a pity that he is brave and loyal, alas!" As she spoke, Xu Yihua hugged her sister's trembling body and let out a long sigh.

……

"Zizhong, what do you think?" Zhu Yunwen sighed, put down the fold in his hand, and said.

"The emperor is tolerant, this matter is not trivial, King Tai and King Ji are both the emperor's brothers, and their identities are noble, but now this kind of thing is happening, it is really incredible. And now that rumors are spreading in Beijing, the government and the opposition are in turmoil, and Weichen thinks that the emperor should return to Beijing immediately to calm people's hearts. ”

"However, I'm a little unsure, am I wrong to blame this brother?"

"This," Wang Du hesitated for a moment, and turned his gaze to Liu Jing beside him.

Seeing this, Liu Jing had no choice but to walk up, bow down and salute: "Your Majesty, this matter cannot be determined yet, but this may also be the bitter trick of the King of Taiwan." ”

"How?"

"Your Majesty, please see, the biggest beneficiary of this falling into the water incident is actually the king of Taiwan, so I can't rule out the possibility that this Ma Mingyang is the king of Taiwan. And if the minister's conjecture is true, then the king of Taiwan must have a plan, and the plan is not small! ”

"Not small?" Zhu Yunwen suddenly laughed: "What does he want to do?" ”

"Your Majesty," this time it was Wang Du who spoke: "This matter, Weichen and Lord Liu have already discussed, and the purpose of King Tai is very likely, it is likely that it is the emperor." ”

"Oh?"

Looking at Zhu Yunwen's cold eyes, Wang Du shuddered for a moment, but he quickly calmed down, knelt on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "The minister thinks that the emperor should be careful, once something happens to the emperor, then the king of Taiwan is likely to be supported and enthroned in Beijing." ”

Silence, long silence.

After a long time, the cold sweat on the foreheads of Wang Du and Liu Jing, who were kneeling on the ground, came out, and finally heard a voice: "Okay, you guys get up, I know it in my heart." ”

"Emperor Xie!"

Zhu Yunwen thought for a while and said, "Zizhong, summon Xie Jinlai, I want to make a few wills!" ”

"Yes!"
