The pain of losing a daughter once became a madman
March 15 of the fifth year of Tang Yonghui.
Tai Chi Palace.
Due to the recent Tang Gaozong Li Zhi's slight health, he gave the palace a decree to close the palace, and he did not travel to the palace for ten thousand years.
And since you want to travel to the Wannian Palace, the candidate who will accompany you will naturally have to take a lot of effort to choose.
But despite this, in the entire Taiji Palace, everyone is very clear in their hearts:
Whether the queen or the last concubine of the four concubines goes or not, Wu Zhaoyi, the Lizheng Palace, is bound to go.
However, under such speculation, Wu Meiniang's preemptive move, which had already been prepared, broke out without warning.
Afternoon.
Tai Chi Temple.
Li Zhi looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and the old ministers who were kneeling majestically in front of him, pleading with him as his uncle to thoroughly investigate the case of King Yong's almost poisoning, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, a little resentful:
Even if you want to calculate people, you have to talk to him first?
I threw a big surprise so suddenly, I don't know how easy it is to become frightened?
Sigh and sigh, he still has to persuade his uncle for his precious lady:
"Uncle is also too worried......
After all, Su Jie is fine, and I have also ordered the Imperial Court to investigate the case thoroughly......"
"Lord, this matter involves the prince's nobles, and the concubines of the inner court.
It is not for the Lord to be so careless.
What's more, in recent days, all the things in the back court have been messy and chaotic, after all, it is also a time of unrest.
Otherwise, how could there be such a big case?
The old minister thought that it was better to ask the Lord to go up to the law of thunder and thoroughly investigate the case to set an example. ”
After the eldest grandson Wuji finished speaking, he kowtowed deeply.
Li Zhi was silent, and his uncle's mind was also very transparent-
is the same as the previous dynasty, I just hope that everything can be balanced and comfortable, and don't break the iron rules of the entire Tang Dynasty harem because of a concubine.
But he understands the mind of the eldest grandson Wuji, which does not mean that he is willing to do this.
What's more, it involves Mei Niang, of course he refuses to agree.
When he was hesitating, he heard a report outside the palace, Daoyong Wang Sujie, crying.
Li Zhi's head hurt even more.
……
A moment later.
Tai Chi Palace.
Lizheng Palace.
Mei Niang listened to Minghe's report, nodded, and took a sip of tea before saying leisurely:
"When I heard that Ryan knew about this, I immediately felt uneasy, didn't I?"
"If you are a mother, Master Rui will not be disobedient.
But Master Rui has been in this Tai Chi Palace for all these years, and he always has some strength, and if he can help Niangniang a little, he naturally wants to help.
Niangniang, Master Rui is also a measured person, just believe him. ”
Minghe lightly persuaded.
Mei Niang shook her head and said:
"It's not that I don't believe him, but it's that Wen Niang is what he should worry about the most......
There are some things that I don't have to say behind your back......
A few days ago, when my grandson came to the palace to see me, I asked Wen Niang about it, although he only told me to be relieved, but I could see his attitude......
I'm afraid it's not good for Wen Niang.
So......
I only hope that Ryan, an infatuated child, can accompany her in the last period of her beloved's life, and in the future, she will not forget the original beauty because she is buried in hatred......
That's the last thing I want to see him regret. ”
When Minghe heard this, his nose was also sour, and he said lightly after a while:
"Sure enough, Sister Wen Niang...... Couldn't it be better? ”
"It's good, and ...... in the future
That's all it can be. ”
Mei Niang's eyes were dotted with tears, and she said softly:
"After all...... I still haven't left Hui'er to my people, and I've taken good care of it. ”
As he spoke, tears fell.
Minghe turned his head and gently wiped away his tears, and for a while, only the voices of the two masters and servants could be heard in the hall.
After a while, Mei Niang forcibly stopped her tears and said slowly:
"You don't always have to let Ryan know about these things......
Otherwise, I'm afraid that he will be excited and waste this time with Wen Niang in vain......
As for revenge - not to mention that he has been with me for so long, this kind of affection has long been very accessible, just because Wen Niang has followed me from birth to death over the years, inside and outside the palace, I should also be angry with her. ”
Minghe wiped away his tears and said softly:
"That's why Niang Niang wants to take advantage of the victory to pursue, taking advantage of the moment when King Han is urgently waiting for Taoguang to cultivate obscurity, break his mask in one fell swoop, at least let him not dare to move lightly in the future?"
Wu Meiniang nodded and sighed lightly:
"His Royal Highness Uncle Zhilang, whether it is means and thoughts, can be compared with Concubine Yang Shu back then.
If you want to bring him down, you must not count on the work of one day at a time, or even one month or a year.
But this great revenge of killing women and destroying servants, I will never, absolutely not endure it like this! ”
Speaking of this, Mei Niang's gaze gradually became cold:
"So, let him suffer a little, and he can finally get a little back!"
Minghe nodded, and said lightly:
"That Niangniang, next, shouldn't Uncle Yuan know that those people are the eyes and ears of King Han?"
"This natural ......
It's just that we shouldn't talk about it, and we can't let Jiro mention it......
If you want to find out, you can only let Uncle Yuan find out by himself and find out by himself. ”
Minghe blinked and said:
"What do you mean by waiting?
But at the moment, if you wait, I'm afraid that the mother will have to suffer a little.
Although the mother is not afraid of hardship, there is still His Royal Highness the Acting King!
Your Royal Highness can't leave you! ”
"yes......
For the sake of Hong'er, I can't be grounded like Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu.
So ......"
Mei Niang smiled indifferently:
"So the next thing is to see, how long it will take for that Concubine Xiao Shu to understand who wants to kill his son."
Minghe's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood, nodded and retired silently.
……
Half an hour later.
Tai Chi Palace.
Tai Chi Hall.
Li Zhi, who had a headache because of King Yong's crying, suddenly heard the news that there were close attendants in King Yong's palace outside the hall who asked to see him, saying that there was another urgent matter in the palace and asked King Yong to return to the palace.
King Yong was puzzled at first, but after hearing that the close attendant was actually his close attendant, he immediately changed color and looked at Li Zhi hesitantly.
Li Zhizheng couldn't wait for him to leave, so he immediately nodded his head and didn't even ask what was going on, just blindly talking to the eldest grandson Wuji and other ministers.
But this situation was only a quarter of an hour or so, and was interrupted by Su Jie, who had hurried back and had an even more frightened expression.
Li Zhi saw that his face was abnormal, and just as he was about to open his mouth to ask, he saw Su Jie kneeling down and crying, begging Li Zhi to demote him from Beijing and never return to the capital, so as not to be killed.
Li Zhi was shocked, and the eldest grandson Wuji and others were also extremely surprised, so they immediately asked.
However, after asking again and again, Su Jie kowtowed and did not dare to speak.
Li Zhi was gradually dissatisfied in his heart, and was about to get angry, but was stopped by the eldest grandson Wuji, and asked Zhun to send Su Jie back to the palace before he stepped forward and whispered to Li Zhi:
"His Royal Highness King Yong's time, it seems that there is another inside story, please allow the lord to secretly check, or you can get the truth."
Li Zhizheng couldn't wait for his words, so he immediately agreed.
The eldest grandson Wuji immediately left the Taiji Palace, returned to Zuo Yanming's door, and instructed his close attendant A Luo to immediately find out what happened in the Yongwang Palace today, which actually made him cry so frightened and asked to leave Beijing.
Aro received the order and departed.
It's night.
Changan.
The eldest grandson of the house.
Inside the back garden.
The eldest grandson Wuji and Yu Suiliang, who were playing chess for fun, suddenly saw A Luo in a night suit hurrying in, and immediately stopped and looked at him together.
Ah Luo bowed and saluted, but he was not verbose, and went straight to the point:
"Back to the master, the matter is clear.
In the afternoon, he went to the Taiji Hall to find His Royal Highness King Yong, who was his close attendant.
And he was also the old man who followed him out of the Thousand Autumn Palace. ”
"Thousand Autumn Palace......
It seems that this matter was actually decided by Concubine Xiao Shu?
But strangely, she has always wished that Wu Meiniang would be humiliated and lost, why was she so generous this time, and took the initiative to help her opponent remove suspicion? ”
Yu Suiliang glanced at the eldest grandson Wuji and said.
The eldest grandson Wuji was silent, and said abruptly for a while:
"Could it be that this is not Wu Meiniang's doing?"
Arrow nodded:
"Exactly, according to our eyeliner report in the Qianqiu Palace, Concubine Xiao Shu cried when she saw King Yong, saying that she mistakenly believed that the traitor had killed her son.
At first, King Yong also thought that his mother meant Wu Meiniang, and he wanted to persuade him, but he was stopped by Concubine Xiao Shu and bluntly said that this thing was actually done by King Han. ”
"King Han?!"
"King Han?!"
The eldest grandson Wuji and Yu Suiliang raised their voices in unison, and looked at A Luo with a surprised expression:
"This is what King Han did?!"
"Yes."
Ah Luo nodded and said softly:
According to Concubine Xiao Shufei herself, the two palace attendants who sent flax soup to His Royal Highness King Yong were actually the eyes and ears of King Han who arranged it in.
And because she is a newcomer, it is reported that Wu Meiniang is guarding against them everywhere, and she doesn't mean to use them at all.
This incident is also strange, no one in the entire Lizheng Palace knows when Wu Meiniang sent them to send this flax soup and His Royal Highness King Yong.
And according to Concubine Xiao Shufei, the strangest thing is this hemp soup. ”
Before Yu Suiliang expected to come, the eldest grandson Wuji had already squinted his eyes first:
"The old man remembers clearly that His Royal Highness King Yongwang has not been able to eat this flax since he was a child, and once he eats it, he will inevitably have a rash all over his body, and it will be itchy and unbearable.
The old man remembers such things clearly, and it is impossible for Wu Meiniang not to remember them.
If she wants to attack His Royal Highness King Yong, she really doesn't have to pick this hemp soup to send ......
Knowing that His Royal Highness King Yong would definitely not eat this thing, such a stupid act is really not like her style, is Concubine Xiao Shu thinking like this? ”
Arrow nodded yes.
But Yu Suiliang disagreed:
"Not necessarily, right? Maybe this is exactly what Wu Meiniang wants to achieve? ”
The eldest grandson Wuji thought about it for a while, but shook his head and said:
"No, it won't.
As soon as this matter involves the flesh and blood of the lord, with Wu Meiniang's personality, no matter how much she hates Concubine Xiao Shu, the flesh and blood of the lord will not move lightly.
Secondly......
If she really wanted to achieve such an effect, then she should know that there was a more powerful way. ”
"More powerful?"
"It's a bitter ploy, poisoning herself.
It's better to poison it when His Royal Highness the Acting King is also by her side.
In this way, the Lord will rebuke King Han in anger because of her heartache and her suffering, and we, the ministers of the former dynasty, will also be threatened because of the safety of the prince, and we will inevitably speak with her.
With one heart and one mind, the king of Han will fight together, and with such a formation, the king of Han will go to half his life even if he does not die......
With Wu Meiniang's mind, she would not fail to think of this. ”
Yu Suiliang thought about it, and nodded and said:
"So it is...... But seriously!
After all, as far as Wu Meiniang is concerned, she is very aware of the weight of herself and His Royal Highness the Acting King.
In that case, he is really the king of Han......
But now, shouldn't he be obscure?
Why this scheme? ”
The reason couldn't be clearer, he didn't want to leave the capital at all, but he had no choice but to return to Beijing with the help of some palace power.
In the entire court, there is only Concubine Xiao Shu who wants to be willing to help him.
After all, the queen had already seen his true face and categorically refused to help.
As for Wu Meiniang, this woman is vicious and spicy, even King Han is afraid, and the revenge of killing the woman is in ......
He also didn't dare to borrow strength.
The only thing left is Concubine Xiao Shu, who is almost at a dead end and urgently needs someone to give her advice and help her son ascend to the crown prince.
So this time, he also made a gamble, betting on whether this Concubine Xiao Shufei was really carried away by the predicament.
If so, then you can take advantage of it. ”
