Chapter 80: The Emperor's Mind

It wasn't until he stepped out of the Prime Minister's Mansion that Fu Chafang stopped, exhaled a long turbid breath held in his chest, and Bo Yao followed behind, rolled his eyes, and said softly: "The king really plans to let Wu Zixu go?" ”

The husband glanced sideways at him, "That's how you want him to die?" ”

"I don't dare." Bo Ya denied it repeatedly, and then said: "The minister is worried that he has a grudge and will be unfavorable to the king, just like he had an affair with the Qi State before and killed countless soldiers. ”

The husband's eyes lit up, staring at Bo Yao's seemingly respectful face and said coldly: "Bo Yao, whether Wu Zixu has fornicated with Qi Guo, you know best, Wu Zixu's matter, so far, don't let this king hear half a sentence from your mouth." ”

Bo Yao's heart skipped a few beats, and the husband really knew, in this case, why did he come here and search the Prime Minister's Mansion, did he want to get rid of Wu Zixu with his own hands?

In retrospect, he forced himself to say what he said about the search of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and in the original plan, it should have been the Fucha who ordered the search.

Today, it not only completely dispelled Wu Zixu's threat, but also preserved his name as a Ming monarch, so that the ministers of the DPRK and the central government and Wu Zixu's old ministry had nothing to say, killing two birds with one stone.

That king's mind is really unfathomable, a real emperor's mind.

It's ridiculous that Wu Zixu is still in the dark, thinking that everything is his trick, but he doesn't know that even he has become a pawn in the hands of his husband.

"Don't guess things you shouldn't guess, it's not good for you." The husband's words made Bo Yao shudder, and he quickly suppressed his chaotic thoughts, and said in a panic: "The minister doesn't dare." ”

I don't know how many times he said these three words in the days when he became an official, but this time he was the most panicked and scared.

He really didn't dare to think about it anymore, at least in front of his husband!

"Let's go." The husband untied the gale and turned on his horse.

"Yes." Bo Yao responded, and said with some hesitation: "Chen Dou dares to say one more thing, although Wu Zixu's matter is over, there is still a Pingyang county lord, she is Wu Zixu's daughter, and she continues to stay in the palace, I'm afraid something is wrong." ”

These words reminded the husband, yes, Wu Rong's identity is sensitive, and it is indeed not suitable to stay in the palace for a long time, and his wedding with Yiguang is imminent, Wu Rong has always thought that Yiguang has taken her queen's throne, and has also gone to the queen mother for this reason.

The husband thought for a moment and said, "The king of Ming Japan will send someone to send her back to Wufu." ”

"The county lord of Pingyang is getting older, and he should have been married a long time ago, but for various reasons, it has been delayed until now; Chen thought that instead of sending her back, it would be better to point her a family affair and let her rely on it for the rest of her life, which would be a good thing. ”

The husband said with his head in his head: "There is some truth, but unfortunately that season and fate are thin, a while ago she died of illness, and for a while, this king does not know who to give her as a wife." ”

Hearing this, Bo Yao suddenly knelt down, kowtowed, and said, "Dare to ask the king for a favor." ”

The husband was stunned by his sudden move, and for a moment, he seemed to understand something, and said with a strange face: "Could it be that you want to marry Wu Rong as a wife?" ”

Old Bo Yao's face flushed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Yes." ”

The husband said funny: "You are confused, how old is this Wu Rong, how old are you, old husband and young wife, and you are not afraid of people's jokes." ”

Bo Yao said: "The minister knows that this matter is indeed a bit ridiculous, but the minister really likes the county lord of Pingyang, and after the death of the minister's wife, the position of the main room has been vacant, and it is not an insult to the county lord of Pingyang." As he spoke, he hurriedly said, "The minister will definitely treat the county lord of Pingyang well." ”

Fucha stared at him and said, "Haven't you always hated Wu Zixu, how can you like Wu Rong?" ”

"Wu Zixu is Wu Zixu, the county lord is the county lord, and the ministers have always been clear." After a pause, Bo Yao said a little awkwardly: "Don't hide it from the king, since I met the county lord of Pingyang two years ago, I have never forgotten it, but the county lord has a marriage contract with that season, so I don't dare to mention it." ”

The husband hesitated, and asked Wu Rong, a young and beautiful woman, to marry a half-hundred-year-old man like Bo Yao, which was really a little aggrieved, but in terms of identity, as the daughter of a criminal minister, Wu Rong, who had the title of county lord, was undoubtedly Gao Pan.

"Well, this family business has been agreed by the king." After weighing it for a long time, the husband finally agreed. Following Bo Yao, although he was a little wronged by Wu Rong, he could at least protect her with fine clothes and food, and she would be worry-free for half a lifetime, which could be regarded as a little compensation for Wu Rong.

Bo Yao was overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed to the ground, "Thank you to the king for your success, the minister is grateful, and he will be a cow and a horse for the king in this life, and he will die." ”

"Alright, let's go." With these words, the husband took the belly of the horse and rode his horse to the palace, followed by Bo Yao.

The news that Wu Zixu was demoted to a concubine soon came to Wu Rong's ears, and when she heard this, she knocked over the freshly fried mushroom, and the hot mushroom juice splashed on the back of her white jade-like hand without hesitation, leaving a red mark.

"Be careful." The palace maid who was chatting heard the sound and hurriedly wiped her hands, but the latter didn't seem to realize it, but said nervously: "What you just said, is it true?" ”

The two palace maids hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "It's true, it's a matter today, the king personally went to Wu Xiang...... No, Wu Zixu's mansion found evidence of treason against the enemy, if it weren't for the king's kindness, Wu Zixu would have been separated by this time. ”

These words were like bright steel needles, piercing Wu Rong's temples fiercely, and while the pain was painful, it also made her frightened and sad.

What is frightening is that she relies on the monstrous power of her father-in-law on weekdays, arrogant and domineering, I don't know how many people she has offended, those people are in the way of her father-in-law, and they dare not speak out; Now that the father-in-law has lost power, they will definitely take revenge on themselves tenfold and hundredfold.

Sadly, although her husband has decreed that Yiguang will be crowned queen and will be married next month, she still has a trace of fantasy in her heart; I hope that my father-in-law can stop this and let my husband change his position, but now, ...... Nothing is possible, she will never be the wife of her husband's brother in her life.

The two palace maids glanced at each other and said softly, "There is one more thing that has to do with the county lord." ”

Wu Rong said astringently: "But the king wants to drive me out of the palace?" ”

"Not really." One of the palace maids hesitated for a moment and whispered, "The slave maid heard that the king has chosen a new family for the county lord. ”

Wu Rong was stunned and subconsciously asked, "Who is it?" ”

"Dazai-sama."

Wu Rong almost thought he had misheard, "What did you say, say it again?" ”

"Dazai-sama." This time, Wu Rong heard it clearly, it was Bo Yao, but this ...... How is it possible, how can he be a good match with him at such an age; Besides, he and his father-in-law are mortal enemies, how can he marry him.

Yes, she can't marry Bo Ya, she can't say anything!

Thinking of this, Wu Rong suddenly ran out, wanting to go to the Taiji Palace, but soon stopped, in the past two years, her husband has rarely had a good face for her, and she begged herself, I'm afraid he won't even meet him.

The only thing that can save her at the moment is the Queen Mother, who is seriously ill in bed.

Thinking of this, she turned around and ran towards the Queen Mother's bedchamber, all the way to the bed filled with a strong smell.

The Queen Mother slept there quietly, her face was so thin from her long-term illness that she could not see a trace of flesh on her cheeks, as if only a thin piece of skin was left on her bones, which was very sad.

For more than a year, Yiguang has exhausted his medical skills, and he can only barely delay, and now, ...... It has reached a point where it is difficult to delay any longer, and the Queen Mother may die at any time.

Once the Queen Mother is gone, there will be no one in this world who can shelter her.

The more Wu Rong thought about it, the more sad she became, she lay on the side of the couch and cried, she didn't know how long she cried, she felt someone slowly stroking her head, and when she looked up, the Queen Mother didn't know when she woke up.

Seeing Wu Rong's face full of tears, the Queen Mother asked distressed and laboriously, "Why...... Crying so sadly? ”

These words suddenly hooked up the sadness in Wu Rong's heart, and he cried more and more, and after a while, he barely stopped a little, and cried and said: "The Queen Mother save me!" ”

The Queen Mother sat at the head of the bed with the support of the palace people and asked, "What happened?" ”

Wu Rong cried and told the matter again, and when she heard that her husband was going to marry Wu Rong to Bo Yao, the Queen Mother was so sad that she shed tears, shook her head and said: "The king is confused, how can you marry a half-hundred-year-old man, how will you live the rest of your life." ”

Wu Rong cried: "Queen Mother, now only you can save me, don't ignore me, I ...... I'd rather never marry. ”

"The mourning family knows, don't ...... it yet" In the middle of the words, the Queen Mother's eyes suddenly widened, and a "hmm" sound came out of her throat, as if she was blocked by something, and her originally sallow face quickly flushed abnormally.

Wu Rong has been taking care of the Queen Mother during this time, knowing that this is because of phlegm blocking her throat, she can't breathe, and if she doesn't spit it out in time, she will suffocate to death.

She hurriedly patted the Queen Mother on the back according to the method that Yiguang had taught before, and after some scrambling, the Queen Mother finally spit out the phlegm stuck in her throat and resumed her breathing.

Seeing this scene, Wu Rong cried out with a "wow", and the Queen Mother took a few breaths and comforted: "What are you crying about, isn't it okay to mourn the family." ”

"Rong'er was so scared just now, if ...... That's how the Queen Mother ...... gone, then Banyan really has nowhere to ...... It's okay. Wu Rong cried so much that he couldn't breathe, and he broke off several times before finishing his sentence.

Hearing her words, the Queen Mother was also sad, "Don't worry, before this matter is resolved, the mourning family will definitely not let go, don't cry, crying will break the mourning family's heart." ”

Wu Rong wiped her tears indiscriminately, she was very pitiful, and she had completely lost her domineering and willful appearance in the past.

She was originally an orphan girl who couldn't even eat, but she unexpectedly got Wu Zixu's mercy and became his righteous daughter, and got the wealth she didn't deserve in her life; But in the same way, they must also be forced to face the dangerous calculations that accompany this wealth and glory.

I don't know if it's luck or misfortune......
