Chapter 31: The First Confession

Yang Guang was stunned by An Ruoxi's sudden change in demeanor and tone, and he didn't understand what she was going to say to herself. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Lord, none of the furnishings in this palace, boxes, cabinets, tables, and cases are new, they are all old things, that is, even the robes that the prince wears on weekdays are rarely silky, and more cloth is used, so the prince won't blame me for this, right?" An Ruoxi slowed down her tone and asked Yang Guang.

Yang Guang shook his head blankly.

"That's good. Ruoxi is now a person who is about to take refuge in Buddhism, so he simply told the prince. Since ancient times, the emperor's family has valued power and light flesh and bones, and the reason why Ruoxi asked the prince to suffer these grievances as soon as he came to the prince's side was actually so that the prince could protect himself from others in the battle for the throne in the future. ”

"Ha, hahaha......" Yang Guang let out a burst of laughter, pointed at An Ruoxi with his hand, and asked sharply, "Where do you start with this?" Yesterday in the Hongsheng Palace, the queen mother was still teaching my five brothers that one mother and one sibling should never kill each other. Besides, now that the eldest brother is in the East Palace, everyone is known as a virtuous person, but today, you came to me and said to me, asking me to be hypocritical and pretentious, beware of being framed by my brothers, An Ruoxi, you deliberately sow discord and play right and wrong for no reason, don't you want to live? ”

An Ruoxi's stern rebuke to Yang Guang did not show any fear, but said lightly: "The prince said that I don't want to sow discord, or play with right and wrong, but you have to think clearly, there is only one throne, but there are five princes, with five fighting for one, the winner is the son of heaven, and the loser can save the life of the whole family. Therefore, before parting today, I not only advise the prince to be careful everywhere and protect himself, but also to persuade the prince to make plans early, advance bravely, and make further progress......"

"Enough! Come. Yang Guang categorically stopped An Ruoxi and shouted loudly outside the hall.

"What, is the prince going to kill Ruoxi?" An Ruoxi asked calmly with a smile on her face.

Xiao Xiao and Cersei ran into the hall one after the other, looking at Yang Guang with angry faces and An Ruoxi with a calm face with a panicked expression, not knowing what was happening in the hall.

"You all stand down, it's all right." Yang Guang regained some of his senses, waved his hand to Xiao Xiao and Cersei, and motioned for them to retreat outside the hall.

After listening to An Ruoxi's words, the reason why he had such a strong reaction, and even for a moment, he did have the idea of dealing with An Ruoxi on the spot, in fact, most of the reason was that he knew that Yang Guang would replace the current crown prince Yang Yong in the future and become the second emperor of the Sui Dynasty, and he did not want to get involved in the battle for the throne of his brothers prematurely on the second day of his soul, and the other half of the reason was that he was not willing to reinterpret history step by step, and secretly changed his own destiny in his heart. and then wanted to create history, and he didn't want An Ruoxi to find out what happened many years later in advance at this time.

At the same time, because An Ruoxi suddenly proposed to him to seize the sect, Yang Guang couldn't help but have a trace of doubt about her in his heart: ordinary ancient women would definitely not be as keen on such a major event as An Ruoxi would be about such a big thing as the future ownership of the throne, is it really like her mother Dugu Jialuo suspected, An Ruoxi is the eyes and ears that Princess Qianjin of the Northern Zhou Dynasty deliberately planted beside her, deliberately creating disputes between several princes of the Sui Dynasty, in order to gain the benefits of the fisherman?

"I just don't think I've heard anything, you haven't said anything, and I have to mention things like this to others again in the future, otherwise, I won't be able to save you." Yang Guang decided not to give An Ruoxi any chance to continue talking along the topic of seizing the sect, "Tonight, you leave the mansion and go to the temple, do you want to send someone to see you off." ”

"Niangniang has already sent the pendant in her palace to accompany Ruoxi to the temple to practice, so I don't bother the prince." An Ruoxi completely ignored Yang Guang's intention to drive away the guest, stood in place and did not move, and continued, "Today, Ruoxi confided in the prince that he will have his own public opinion on right and wrong in the future. This is the list of the court's and palace's close ministers who Ruoxi has accepted for the prince in the past year, please take it away, and often have some benefits with them during the New Year's Festival, so that they can help the prince in the future. ”

Yang Guang half-pushed and half-took a piece of white silk from An Ruoxi's hand, and unfolded it to take a look, but saw that the names of seven or eight people were written on the white silk from right to left with a neat and neat small block of grace, among which the first person was named Yuanzhou, and He Zhu'er, the envoy who came to the palace today to announce to Yang Lihua, was also among them, ranking last.

This girl is really scheming, don't take it lightly! With He Zhu'er's status, he was only at the bottom of this list, and although Yang Guang didn't know a few other people, he could roughly guess that they must be extremely favored cronies and subordinates around the emperor and empress. Yang Guang looked at the network of relationships that An Ruoxi painstakingly weaved for himself around the emperor and empress, and became more and more suspicious of An Ruoxi's motives for doing this.

He immediately remembered what An Ruoxi said, the eldest sister Yang Lihua sent a palace maid to accompany An Ruoxi to the temple to practice, and the lightning flashed in her mind, and she couldn't help but nod and praise secretly: The eldest sister is worthy of being the queen and the queen mother, and she really thinks very well when she does things, she does this, on the surface, it seems that she is giving An Ruoxi a sense of decency, and does not regard her as an ordinary maid, but in fact, it is very likely that An Ruoxi's true identity is also doubtful, and she has her own eyes beside her.

"Thank you for your kindness. It's just that I am the prince born to my father and queen mother, and I am the king of Jin, so I don't need to make this traitor's mind envelop the close ministers around my father and queen mother, you are too worried. Yang Guang threw the white silk back to An Ruoxi and said resolutely.

"But the prince knows about it, I have already explained the trivial affairs to Mr. Qian in the account, and he will handle them in the future." An Ruoxi seemed to have expected Yang Guang's reaction, took the white silk, but did not put it away, but walked straight to Yang Guang's bed, stuffed the white silk under the pillow, and turned around and told Yang Guangdao, "This list is still kept by the prince, Ruoxi can't accompany the prince, even if the prince doesn't have the intention of seizing the sect, but ask for self-protection,

Sooner or later, these people will make the prince. ”

She posed as a wife and concubine at this moment, half to make her coquettish, and half to force Yang Guang to accept this list with sincere persuasion, which made Yang Guang become a little at a loss: he wanted to force An Ruoxi to take away the white silk, and he was worried that this would not match Yang Guang's attitude towards An Ruoxi before crossing the possession, causing unnecessary trouble, so he endured it and did not open his mouth to stop it.

"Lord Wang." At this time, Xian Yuluo hurriedly walked into the dormitory, and saw An Ruoxi standing beside Yang Guang's bed at a glance, he was stunned at first, and then quickly turned around to leave, but was stopped by An Ruoxi's mouth.

"If the prince has no other instructions, the servant girl will retire."
