Qi Chenjing patted Kang Yan, "I said that I won't wait too long, I will definitely find a way to get the Queen Mother and the Emperor to personally agree to our marriage and give us a marriage." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

There was an indescribable certainty in his tone, and it was clear that he already had an idea.

Kang Yeon is not as optimistic as he is.

The queen mother and the emperor are now guarding against Qi Chenjing like a thief, treating him as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, wishing that Qi Chenjing was not in this world, if it weren't for this, they would not do everything possible to destroy the relationship between the Chen family and Qi Chenjing.

Let the two of them marry themselves and Qi Chenjing? It's not a simple thing to do, and it has to be carefully planned.

Kang Yan was silent before speaking: "No matter what you do, you just have to be careful, your own safety is the most important." ”

The corners of Qi Chenjing's mouth curled slightly, and he kissed her forehead, "Don't worry, I'm measured, the last spring hunt was because I was too careless, so I fell in love with them." ”

mentioned the matter of the last spring hunt, Kang Yan remembered the family affair between Meng Zihan and Chen Kexuan caused by the spring hunt.

"How the hell did you promise my grandmother? Is it just a stopgap measure? She asked curiously.

Although the eldest princess Fuyun mentioned Qi Chenjing's statement to her, saying that it was expedient to marry, and when the matter calmed down, he would find a way to break the marriage contract, but Kang Yan intuitively felt that that was not Qi Chenjing's real thoughts, she wanted to hear Qi Chenjing's real thoughts.

Qi Chenjing sighed, "The situation at that time could only let them get married first, and I did promise the eldest princess to find a way to solve the marriage contract when the situation was calm, but in my selfish heart, Meng Zihan was actually a person worthy of trust." If it weren't for the barrier of identity, he would actually be a good match for your third cousin. ”

This point coincides with Kangyan's thoughts. "It's just that identity is a very realistic thing, my fourth uncle and fourth aunt will never agree to my cousin marrying Meng Zihan."

Although she had only met her fourth aunt once. But looking at her strength to love Chen Kexuan, she knew that she would definitely not agree to her daughter marrying a guard.

"That's not necessarily," Qi Chenjing said, "Meng Zihan is not my slave, on the contrary, his family used to be a famous family in the previous dynasty, as long as he finds a suitable opportunity to let him become a general, I think he will be a very good general, and it is not impossible to be a marquis in the future." ”

Kang Yan understood that Qi Chenjing was also using drag to buy time for Meng Zihan. He wants Meng Zihan to be a military general, and he will have an identity level in the future, and it is estimated that no one will talk about whether they are worthy or not.

I just didn't know that Chen Kexuan might have waited so long.

"I guess you think so too, but if Meng Zihan becomes a military general, it will also be good for you, but when is the right time, after all, it is a matter of everyone that he is your bodyguard, and the queen mother and the emperor are afraid that they will not allow him to be a military general." Kang Yan said.

Qi Chenjing didn't know. It's just that Meng Zihan, Lao Jiang, Lao Wang, and Liu Wenqing all sincerely follow him. Naturally, he had to do his best to plan for them.

"You, don't worry so much," Qi Chenjing kissed her again. "The Queen Mother will definitely recruit you into the palace in the next few days, so you better prepare well. If you ask about your family, you just pretend to be shy and don't say it. Just leave it to your grandmother. ”

The eldest princess of Fuyun must know how to say it in order to stop the queen mother's mouth.

Qi Chenjing's guess was right, and two days later, the Queen Mother really issued an edict and summoned Kang Yan, the lord of Lanxin, into the palace.

The eldest princess of Fuyun also handed over a sign to the palace, saying that Kang Yan entered the palace for the first time, and she led Kang Yan into the palace to greet the queen mother.

Two days later, Kang Yan packed up according to the rank of the county lord and followed the eldest princess Fuyun into the palace.

The palace of the girder follows the previous dynasty, on this basis, only part of the construction was done, not very large, they entered the palace all the way from the Duanyang Gate, walked along the long road for half an hour, turned left and arrived at an open place.

There are all kinds of flowers planted around, and in the middle of it is surrounded by a cluster of strange-shaped rockeries, on which there is a gurgling water.

This is not an imperial garden, how can there be such a place in a heavy palace.

Kang Yan wondered, and subconsciously took a second look.

The eldest princess Fuyun stopped, looked at the rockery in front of her with a somewhat complicated expression, and slowly spoke after a while, "This was the Qinglian Hall where Concubine Zhuang lived back then. ”

Concubine Zhuang? Kang Yan was stunned, that was the residence of Qi Chenjing's biological mother Yan Yishi before her death.

Did his parents escape from the palace from here?

Kang Yan's eyes subconsciously stayed on a rockery surrounded by a sea of flowers.

Thinking of what Mrs. Cheng said at the time, Kang Yan secretly guessed in her heart, it should be here, right?

Is the secret passage out of the palace that Mrs. Cheng said in this rockery?

"The Qinglian Hall was burned by the fire, and the Queen Mother was afraid that the emperor at that time would touch the scene, so she did not let people rebuild the Qinglian Palace, but changed it into a small garden, called the West Garden." The eldest princess of Fuyun is obviously very familiar with the palace.

Her eyes also stayed on the rockery.

She had visited this place countless times before, and she was extremely familiar with it, because she had always thought that her daughter had died in this place, but she didn't expect that there was another cave in the rockery.

After staying in the West Garden for a while, the eldest princess Fuyun continued to walk forward with people, crossed a road, turned right, and arrived at the Antai Hall where the Queen Mother lived.

The Queen Mother is just in her early forties, with single eyelids, a high nose bridge, and tight lips showing that the nasolabial folds on both sides are more profound, and she looks a little older than her actual age.

Kang Yeon solemnly kowtowed, and when she saluted, she had mixed feelings in her heart, and the person sitting in front of her might be the enemy who killed her parents, but she had to bow to her.

If the eldest princess of Fuyun is counted according to her generation, the queen mother should call her aunt, and she has the holy decree of Emperor Taizu, so she does not need to salute the queen mother.

The Queen Mother accepted her salute safely, and then smiled and instructed the palace maid beside her to help Kang Yan up, "Good boy, come to the mourning family and let the mourning family take a look." ”

Kang Yan took a few steps forward as she said.

The Queen Mother took her hand with pity. "Poor child, Xiangning went early. You're alone, but thankfully your grandmother found you and brought you back. Otherwise........"

Kang Yeon lowered her head and made a sad gesture and did not answer.

The eldest princess Fuyun's face turned cold, and her eyes flashed quickly, if it weren't for the queen mother's trouble, her Xiangning would not have gone early, and their mother and daughter would have met one day.

The Queen Mother paused, and then asked Kang Yan again: "How old are you, can you set up a family affair?" ”

Kang Yan remembered Qi Chenjing's advice, so she put on a shy look. He only lowered his head and did not speak.

The eldest princess of Fuyun said lightly: "The queen mother said with a smile, this child has been filial piety for three years, how can he be married?" ”

The implication is that the Queen Mother does not know the rules of etiquette.

The Queen Mother was annoyed, but her face was inconvenient, and her expression was sneering, "The mourning family is also confused for a while, I wanted to care about this child, if there is no family matter, I will find a good family business for her." ”

The corners of the eldest princess Fuyun's mouth twitched. "The Queen Mother is busy with things and her health is not good, so don't worry about this matter, I've already been paying attention to it. Xiangning loves her the most, and I must not let her suffer any grievances, no matter how much it costs. ”

There was already a sonorous air between the words. hinted to the Queen Mother that if she dared to meddle in Kang Yan's family affairs. is the enemy of her eldest princess Fuyun.

The Queen Mother's face became visibly displeased.

Fuyun, an old woman, is so old. If you don't cultivate at home, you come to the palace to make a lot of fun, and now you dare to threaten him.

It's really bearable, it's unbearable.

She summoned Kang Yan into the palace today to see her character and see if she could be used by her.

Who knew that the eldest princess of Fuyun followed.

After more than half a sentence, the Queen Mother and the eldest princess of Fuyun played a few words, and felt exhausted, so they lost the interest in asking Kang Yan again, and simply served tea to the guests.

The eldest princess of Fuyun was just about to take her out, but a sharp cry from the eunuch was heard, "The emperor has arrived." ”

The emperor came into the room and his eyes stayed on Kang Yan who was kneeling on the ground for a moment, only to see his head lowered, he couldn't see his appearance clearly, he could only see the long eyelashes trembling slightly, and he was wearing a goose yellow round neck smoke green bamboo leaf pattern shirt, lined with a pink neck that was exposed, and he was as white as snow, and he was wearing a light blue long skirt embroidered with plum blossoms, and the whole person was fresh and elegant.

"What a coincidence, my aunt and grandmother are also here." The emperor first greeted the eldest princess Fuyun, and then asked Kang Yan to get up.

With a goose egg face, willow eyebrows, a straight nose bridge and small red lips, it looks like a beautiful embryo, and the emperor turned a few thoughts in his heart in an instant.

"This should be the daughter left by the county lord of Xiangning, I remember to seal the county lord of Lanxin, right?" The emperor asked Kang Yan with soft eyes, and he couldn't see the emotion in his eyes.

Kang Yeon's eyes drooped slightly, and she replied, "Yes." ”

"Well, you're still my cousin, so let's go into the palace to play more in the future." The emperor's expression was very peaceful, "The Queen Mother is old, you can come in and talk to the Queen Mother." ”

The Queen Mother was keenly aware of it, and frowned, "Is there anything wrong?" ”

Sun Zhong bent over, lowered his eyelids, and his voice was much lower, "When the old slave entered the palace just now, he saw that the emperor had passed on the eldest princess Fuyun to enter the palace. ”

The Queen Mother's eyes flashed, and her face was a little difficult to look at.

"What is the emperor trying to do, didn't you learn a lesson last time?" The Queen Mother slapped the table heavily.

At this time, the eldest princess of Fuyun entered the palace, thinking with her knees for what.

The emperor is nothing more than still staring at the affairs of the Eagle Guard, and he wants to hold the Eagle Guard in his hands.

The Queen Mother walked a few steps in the hall with a gloomy face, and she hated it in her heart.

Since the last time he released the Su family privately, the emperor seems to have become more and more arbitrary, and he no longer asks his opinion on anything like before, and there are often times when he disagrees with himself.

When did there be a gap between their mother and son?

The last time I went to Macheng Mansion, things were going very well, but at the last moment, the emperor asked Ding Gang to go to Macheng Mansion to take over the Eagle Guard.

Who chewed his tongue in front of the emperor and made the emperor and her suspicious?

The Queen Mother squinted and thought for a moment, and instructed Sun Zhong, "You personally go to the Zhengyang Palace, let the emperor come to see the mourning family immediately, and say that the mourning family has something important." ”

Sun Zhong responded and left.

About half an hour later, the emperor hurriedly came to the Antai Palace, "Queen Mother." What is the matter, I have to come over now. I still have urgent matters to deal with. ”

There was a faint impatience in his voice.

The Queen Mother suppressed the unhappiness in her heart, "Your Majesty." The mourning family heard that you summoned the eldest princess of Fuyun into the palace? ”

Although it was an inquiring tone, it did not mean to let the emperor explain.

The emperor's face changed, and he glanced at Sun Zhong, who was standing at the entrance of the palace, feeling a little irritable, he had just summoned the eldest princess of Fuyun into the palace, and before he could say a word, the queen mother would know.

How much eyeliner did the queen mother put next to him?

She is getting older, why can't she retire in the harem in a stable manner, and do something that has to interfere in government affairs?

The dissatisfaction in the emperor's heart instantly overflowed.

He took a deep breath. Suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart, he spoke with two points of unnaturalness, "Well, my aunt just came in, and I want to ......."

The Queen Mother interrupted him, "The mourning family knows what you think, the matter of the Eagle Guard, there will be opportunities in the future, why bother with the current situation." This time, the mourning family must Qi Chenjing's kid's life. ”

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted, and the emperor's face was a little bad. "However, Queen Mother, Qi Chenjing has no connections. can't make any big waves, not to mention that he has just been crowned king of An. Something happened, and the civil and military officials would definitely suspect us. Now is not the best time to deal with him, it is better to use the current situation to talk to my aunt about the Eagle Guard. ”

Although Qi Chenjing was crowned King An, he has no military power and no connections, what waves can he make in the court? What's more, he is still pressing him right now, and he hasn't even gotten on the jade yet.

If you don't like him, you can cold him and ignore him, but if Qi Chenjing dies now, the courtiers and the people of the world will definitely suspect that he can't tolerate Qi Chenjing, so the emperor feels that now is not the time for Qi Chenjing to die.

"Nope." The Queen Mother categorically vetoed, "The mourning family has worked hard to set up this situation, the time and place are favorable, and if you miss this opportunity, it may be difficult in the future." ”

The emperor was also a little angry, "Why does the queen mother have to be at this time, I have said that the current time is not right, the more eager we deal with him so eagerly, the easier it is to make people suspicious, not to mention that he doesn't know what happened back then." ”

mentioned the events of the year, the queen mother's face changed greatly, and her breathing became a little shorter, "No, this little is the nightmare of the mourning family, with him for a day, the mourning family can't even sleep peacefully, without him, even the things of the year were exposed, and they didn't dare to pull you off the dragon chair, you know?" ”

The emperor's expression was a little hesitant, and what the Queen Mother said was not unreasonable.

However, let him miss the Eagle Guard, and he was unwilling.

Seeing that the emperor's expression was somewhat relaxed, the queen mother's face softened, and persuaded him, "The mourning family knows that you are anxious, but the matter of the Eagle Guard cannot be solved in one or two days, how can the eldest princess of Fuyun control the Eagle Guard for so many years, how can it be so easy to deal with?" Didn't I deceive you with a fake token last time, this time we will dispose of Qi Chenjing first, and next time the queen mother will help you find a way to get the Eagle Guard. ”

In the end, it was her own son, the Queen Mother didn't want him to be too entangled in her heart, thought about it, and added, "Besides, the eldest princess of Fuyun doesn't care about Qi Chenjing or not, if you want to clamp down on the eldest princess of Fuyun, isn't there a little girl in Macheng Mansion?" When the time comes, I am afraid that I will not be able to restrain the eldest princess of Fuyun? ”

The emperor remembered the news that Ding Gang came back to tell him, saying that the eldest princess Fuyun was very fond of the daughter left by the lord of Xiangning, and his heart moved, maybe there was another way.

That little girl seems to be called Kang Yan, and she has been named the lord of Lanxin.

The emperor made a decision in his heart, "Well, this time let's come according to the queen mother's wishes." ”

Having said that, he is still a little unhappy in his heart, he has been on the throne for several years, the eldest prince is already one and a half years old, and the queen mother is still in charge of him like this, and he, the emperor, will inevitably feel constrained when he does things.

When the Queen Mother heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief, she was really afraid that the emperor would insist on going his own way and take the antidote to exchange for Eagle Guard.

His son understands for himself that the emperor is good at everything, but he doesn't think far enough when dealing with things.

Forget it, let's plan for him more.

Anyway, Qi Chenjing's matter will come to an end.

Thinking that it would not take a few days to hear the news of Qi Chenjing's death, and the stone that had been blocking her heart for nearly twenty years was finally about to be moved, the Queen Mother felt extremely comfortable.

No matter how that little got out of the palace this year, this question has bothered her for a long time, but now this question is no longer important. He was not burned nineteen years ago, and he could still be poisoned nineteen years later.

The corners of the Queen Mother's mouth curled high. did not find the gloom in the emperor's eyes.

At the beginning of the heavy snowfall, the weather in the capital was a little colder. People put on thick cotton jackets and cotton cloaks, and the masters of the rich and noble families even changed into big hats.

King An's illness became even more serious.

There have already been courtiers who vaguely proposed that it was time to prepare for King An's death.

King An is just nineteen years old this year, and he has no heirs, and although he has been crowned King An, he has not worshiped the temple, and his name has not been on the royal jade, but his posthumous affairs are really difficult.

According to common sense, if King An's name is jade. If he dies of illness, the Ministry of Rites will naturally prepare the things for the funeral in accordance with the rules of the prince, and finally bury them in the royal tomb.

But the problem is that King An's name has not yet been jaded, but he still has the title of the prince, and it is a difficult problem where to choose his mausoleum.

The emperor first reprimanded the waiter of the Ministry of Rites who proposed to start preparing for King An's death, and shed tears of reluctance, "I have no siblings since I was a child, and it is not easy to find the blood of my father." If you have a sibling, King An will be fine, and I will personally visit King An's mansion. ”

As he spoke, he instructed the courtiers to go down to the court and follow him to visit King An's mansion.

Naturally, the courtiers wanted to stop it.

Especially the Imperial Historians of the Supervisory Yuan. “...... The emperor's deep brotherhood and righteousness are the blessings of the subjects of the world. However, the gentleman did not stand under the dangerous wall, and King An was seriously ill. It's really not appropriate to face you. ”

The emperor was just afraid that Qi Chenjing would play tricks and pretend to be dead like he did in Macheng Mansion last time. I want to confirm whether he was really poisoned, and by the way, show his brotherhood in front of the courtiers.

"King Ke'an is my brother, if I don't take a look in person, I won't be at ease."

The imperial historians tried their best to resist, "If the emperor is concerned about King An, he can send the people who serve him to visit King An on behalf of the emperor, which is the same." ”

The emperor didn't really plan to see Qi Chenjing, but when he saw that he had achieved the goal he wanted, he instructed Ding Gang, the chamberlain who served beside him, "You take me to visit King An, pass on my will, and make sure that he can recuperate with peace of mind." ”

and ordered all the ministers to visit King An to show their favor to King An.

Before the next court, the queen mother sent Sun Zhong, the chief attendant of the house, to come over, and the queen mother was very worried about King An's body and wanted to visit King An together.

The emperor was always the first to know the movements of the previous dynasty on the queen mother's side, and although he was dissatisfied, he did not show the slightest dissatisfaction with the faces of the courtiers.

So a group of people went to King An's mansion and saw King An lying on the bed dying.

His face was flushed, as if he was a symptom of a high fever, but his breathing was like nothing, as if he could stop breathing at any time.

In just a few days, King An, who was standing on the court and smiling quietly, was so thin that he had lost his shape, and the whole person seemed to be out of water.

Everyone was a little embarrassed in their hearts, no matter how severe the wind chill was, it wouldn't immediately ask for the name of a healthy man, right?

I'm afraid that King An's illness is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

On behalf of the Queen Mother and the Emperor, Sun Zhong and Ding Gang stepped forward to visit King An and shouted a few times, "Lord, the Queen Mother and the Emperor let you rest in peace." ”

It's a pity that King An, who was lying on the sickbed, was in a daze, unconscious at all, his lips opened slightly, and he shouted indistinctly: "Father, father, I am very uncomfortable." ”

The people who heard it looked at each other, could it be that the rumors in the market were true?

Is King An sick and confused?

Why keep calling my father and the emperor.

Did you really see the emperor?

Sun Zhong and Ding Gang glanced at each other, and then turned their heads away, but they knew in their hearts that it was not appropriate to let these ministers stay here any longer, so they found an excuse to take them out.

It seems that King An is really not good.

On the morning of the second day, the Ministry of Rites officially issued an excerpt and asked for instructions on how to deal with the aftermath of King An.

The emperor shed two tears, was silent for a moment, and said: "In order to choose a mausoleum for King An as soon as possible, the Ministry of Rites began to build and prepare for the funeral of the prince. ”

But he kept silent and didn't mention the matter of King An's jade.

The ministers knew in their hearts that this was to let King An be buried with the etiquette of the prince, but he was not allowed to enter the royal mausoleum.

In the final analysis, the emperor still doesn't agree with the identity of King An in his heart, right?

The ministers had a different opinion in their hearts.

The Ministry of Rites was about to receive the order, when suddenly there was a sharp voice from the inner attendant outside, "The eldest princess of Fuyun is ..... to the court."

"The eldest princess of Fuyun went to the court ....."

"The eldest princess of Fuyun went to the court ......"

The chamberlain's shrill voice came from far and near.

The Linguang Palace, which was used to go to the court, suddenly boiled. (To be continued.) )
