Chapter 82: The Blank King's Decree
This sentence made the husband stop, Yiguang walked over quickly, and said in a cut voice: "The county lord was raised by the queen mother, just like her own granddaughter, and the dissolution of the marriage contract is her old man's only wish, can the king really bear to refuse?" ”
The husband pursed his lips tightly, his face was cloudy, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't say a word until he left.
Fucha returned to the Taiji Hall with a gloomy face, looked at the bamboo slips piled up on the imperial case, and suddenly brushed them off with force, falling all over the ground.
The palace people were frightened, and hurriedly fell to the ground to plead guilty, and the husband's chest rose and fell violently, and after a while, he said sharply: "Wang Shen." ”
"The villain is here." Wang Shen responded with trepidation.
The husband stared at the bright and golden summer light outside the hall, gritted his teeth and said, "Chuan Bo Yao will come to see this king immediately!" ”
Wang Shen moved quickly, and after a while, he took Bo Yao to the Taiji Palace, who didn't know that the catastrophe was coming, so he only said that he entered the palace to discuss his marriage with Wu Rong, and saluted happily, "The minister sees the king." ”
Looking at Bo Ya who was kneeling on the ground, Fucha grinned a cold smile, "It turns out that Dazai-sama still has me as a king in his eyes." ”
What a well-behaved person Bo Yao was, he immediately smelled the anger suppressed by the husband behind his smile, and said cautiously: "Why did the king say this? ”
He didn't ask, but this question immediately provoked the anger that the husband forcibly suppressed, and kicked Bo Ya in the chest, causing him to fall to the ground in pain, and the sound of ribs cracking could be faintly heard.
Bo Yao had never seen her husband so angry, she was so frightened that she couldn't care about the sharp pain in her chest, she got up and threw herself at her feet, and said in fear: "What did the minister do wrong to provoke the king to be so angry?" As he spoke, he cried again: "The minister's life and death are small, and the king's dragon body is big, if the minister's body is injured because of the king's dragon, it will be difficult for the minister to atone for his sin." ”
If it were a normal day, the husband might feel useful when he heard this, but now there is only disgust and anger, "Put away your little horse urine, this king will be disgusted when he looks at it!" ”
Being reprimanded by him like this, Bo Yao didn't dare to cry anymore, and knelt on the ground nervously.
The husband paced a few steps irritably, and said, "This king asks you, why do you want to marry Wu Rong?" ”
Hearing that this was the case, Bo Ya was sure in his heart, and immediately said: "The minister has admired the county lord for a long time, and he has long wanted to marry ......" The word "wife" behind it has reached Bo Ya's mouth, but he has not said it, because there is a bronze sword against his neck.
It was none other than the husband who was holding the sword, and I saw him say word by word: "If you dare to tell a lie again, this king will kill you immediately!" ”
Bo Yao was already frightened, and knelt there in a daze, forgetting even the words of begging for mercy, until the husband asked him again why he wanted to marry Wu Rong, and then came back to his senses.
Bo Yao wanted to stick to what he just said, but when he saw the tip of the sword against his neck, he really couldn't muster up the courage to gamble with his life, so he had to say in a trembling voice: "The minister saw that the king refused to kill Wu Zixu, and knew that he had always loved this righteous girl, so he wanted to take her...... Come and humiliate Wu Zixu......"
"Sure enough!" Fucha was so hateful that he almost gritted the root of his teeth, if he wasn't still a little sensible, he would really kill Bo Ya with a sword at this time.
"The minister is guilty, ask the king for mercy!" Bo Yao was frightened and begged desperately for mercy, if he hadn't been pointed at by the sword and couldn't move, he would have kowtowed like a tamper by this time.
"You still have the face to beg for mercy!" The husband said hatefully: "You framed Wu Zixu for collaborating with the enemy, this king no longer cares about you, you can do it, but in a blink of an eye, you calculated this king's troubles, and trapped this king Yu Ren is unjust, Bo Yao, you are really bold!" Speaking of hatred, the tip of the sword was handed forward, this sword was made by the most famous craftsman in Wu after several years, and it was the sharpest, and it immediately cut a hole in Bo Yao's neck, and the red blood continued to flow out.
It's ridiculous to say, no matter how bad or evil a person is, the blood that comes out of this is red......
Bo Yao was frightened, he was really afraid that his husband would kill him in anger, so he hurriedly said: "Although the minister has selfish intentions, the most important thing is for the king. ”
"This king?" The husband laughed angrily and sarcastically: "Your ability to reverse black and white has grown a lot. ”
"I don't dare." Bo Yao's mind flew like a wheel, "The county lord has always thought that the queen has taken everything from her, and he has hatred for the queen, it can be said that as long as she is in danger for a day, the queen will be in danger for a day, even if the king sends her back to Wufu, it is useless; The county lord is naturally vindictive, and she will definitely find ways to harm the queen; But if she marries into the courtier's mansion, the minister can send people to watch her every day, and she will never have the opportunity to do anything to hurt the queen. ”
"So, the king still wants to thank you?" Fucha said with a sneer on his face, and the hand holding the sword did not let go.
"How dare you." Bo Yao said in fear, and then said: "Moreover, although Wu Zixu has been deposed by the king, he has been entrenched in the court for decades, and his cronies, disciples, and disciples are all over the Wu Kingdom, and it is difficult to guarantee that Wu Zixu will not use these powers to do things that are unfavorable to the king." He has no children in his life, only Wu Rong is a righteous daughter, holding Wu Rong is equivalent to holding Wu Zixu's lifeline, so that he does not dare to act rashly. ”
Hearing this, Fucha showed a complicated look, and after a long time, he whispered: "He...... No, it won't. ”
Bo Yao said anxiously: "The king is kind-hearted and has a noble character, but it is difficult to guarantee that Wu Zixu will not, he is not a bright and upright person, has the king forgotten how he forced Sun Shi away back then?" ”
At the mention of Sun Wu, Fu Cha's eyes sank, and after a while, he took back his sword and handed it to Wang Shen, "Now that this matter has been in front of the Queen Mother, tell me, how to end it?" ”
Seeing that the deadly sword was missing from his neck, Bo Yao let out a sigh of relief, covered the wound that was still bleeding, and said, "The minister dares to guess that the Queen Mother wants the king to take back his life?" ”
"Yes, it's ......" The husband wanted to say that he pulled Yiguang to be a lobbyist, but when he came to his mouth, he seemed to feel that it was inappropriate, and swallowed it back, and only said: "This matter is caused by you, and it can't be solved, this king is the only one who asks." ”
Bo Ya agreed, he could hear it, and the husband did not intend to withdraw this marriage, otherwise it would not be like this, it seems that what he just said has worked.
Bo Yao thought for a moment and said: "The reason why the Queen Mother did not agree to this family affair is nothing more than that she is worried that the county lord will be wronged after marrying, and the minister can swear in front of the Queen Mother that she will treat the county lord well in this life and never let her be wronged at all." ”
"I'm afraid that before you speak, the Queen Mother is already angry." Speaking of this, the husband's eyes darkened, and he said softly: "The Queen Mother has run out of oil and the lamp has run out, and she can't last many days, so she must not be stimulated by her old man again." ”
"The king is pure and filial, and he is really a model for the people of the world." Bo Yao complimented, looked at the husband's face and whispered: "The minister thought of a way that might be able to do both." ”
Fucha showed a hint of interest and urged, "Say." ”
Bo Yao replied and said: "The king can pretend to agree to cancel this marriage, and with the heart of the Queen Mother, it will not be too late to complete the marriage after her old man's immortal tour." ”
The husband was quite moved when he heard this, but he did not immediately agree, after all, to do so would mean to deceive the Queen Mother, which is really not what a son of man should do.
But if he wants to take back his life, it is absolutely unwilling; First, it will lose the face of the king; Second, he kept Wu Rong, but he was never at ease; Three to ...... As Bo Yao said, if Wu Zixu really has a disobedient heart, Wu Rong can also contain one or two.
The husband paced back and forth in the hall with his hands in his hands, and he didn't know how many times he walked, he suddenly stopped, stared at Bo Yao and said, "Just do as you say, don't leak a word in front of the Queen Mother." ”
Bo Yao was delighted, and hurriedly said loudly: "The minister will obey the king's will, and never dare to disobey it." After a pause, he said cautiously: "The minister thinks that it is not appropriate for the county lord to continue to stay with the Queen Mother, so as to save any trouble." ”
The husband bowed his head and said: "This king also has this plan, let her return to Wufu early tomorrow morning, and let their father and daughter get together." ”
"The king is so benevolent, it is the blessing of the country of Wu and the blessing of the people of the world." Bo Yao's complimenting voice resounded in the Tai Chi Palace, but the husband listened to it with great interest, but remembered that Fan Li, who was as elegant as the bright moon on the riverside, and only knew how to slip the whiskers and pat the horse, compared with Bo Yao, Fan Li was much more interesting and useful.
The next day, the husband sent his relatives to Baining Palace, and said as he had discussed with Bo Yao before, and then mentioned that Wu Rong should go back to accompany Wu Zixu.
Although the Queen Mother was reluctant, she thought that her husband had "recovered" his life, and his time was short, so she did not object, and watched Wu Rong leave the palace where she had lived for more than ten years.
When leaving, Yiguang also went to see her off, although Wu Rong did not say a word to Yiguang, but when she left, she blessed Yiguang.
Although she Wu Rong is arrogant and arrogant, even if she is willful, she is not an ungrateful person, from the moment Yiguang agreed to help her intercede, she has let go of all kinds of grievances in the past.
Wu Zixu saw Wu Rong coming back with a burden, and he burst into tears, how could he not understand that he was driven out by his husband, but fortunately, he canceled his marriage with Bo Yao, which was a great luck in misfortune.
If they knew that this was just a smokescreen released by their husbands, and the marriage was still there, I don't know what kind of mood they would have......
After midsummer, it gradually enters autumn, and there is a hint of coolness in the morning and evening, and the body of the Queen Mother also decays rapidly in the alternation of summer and autumn......
On this day, Yiguang came to the Taiji Hall with fresh lotus seeds but did not see the husband, and after asking, he knew that he went to the Baining Hall to visit the Queen Mother. The husband knew that the latter would not have much time to stay in the world, so he would go over to accompany him as soon as he was free during this time. When the Queen Mother is in good spirits, she will say a few words to him, but more often, she is unconscious.
Yiguang was idle, and when she saw that the table was messy, she helped clean it up, she was the future queen, so naturally no one would stop her.
This scene of cleaning up made her see something that she shouldn't see.
The husband returned to the Taiji Hall and saw Yiguang there, surprised and delighted, "When did you come?" ”
The palace people said diligently on the side: "King Qiyu, Niangniang arrived an hour ago, and I specially sent you lotus seeds." ”
"It's a coincidence, when I got up this morning, this king wanted to eat lotus seeds, is this a spiritual rhino?" As he spoke, he held Yiguang's soft water, and the coldness from his palm startled him, and he said in surprise: "Why are your hands so cold, but you are sick?" Saying that, he hurriedly went to wipe Yiguang's forehead, and when he saw that the temperature was normal, he relaxed his mind a little, looked at Yiguang, who had been bowing his head and was silent, and said with concern: "Why don't you speak?" ”
Yiguang slowly raised his head, his eyes were trying to hide the grief and disappointment, "Does the king have something to tell me?" ”
"Things? What's up? The husband was asked inexplicably.
Yiguang took a deep breath and reminded, "It has something to do with the county lord of Pingyang. ”
"Wu Rong?" Hearing this name that had not been mentioned for several days, Fu Chaying frowned slightly, "What's wrong with her?" ”
This sentence made the disappointment in Yiguang's eyes a little thicker, she pulled out her hand, walked to the side of the red sandalwood shelf, took out a scroll tied with red silk thread, and said in a trembling voice: "This is the marriage will that the king took back from Dazai a few days ago, it stands to reason that it should be full of words, but in fact, it ......"
Yiguang unfolded the scroll and handed it to Fucha with trembling hands, "There is no blank on it, not a word. ”
