Chapter 118: Unexpected
ο»Ώ
Speaking of which, the main reason for Wen Xinlan and Yun Xiangrong's disagreement is Yun Qing. Zi Yukaku om
When she was a child, Yun Qing often went to find Wen Xinlan, and every time she went, she would bring Yun Xiangrong with her, so Wen Xinlan looked down on Yun Xiangrong very much, and always felt that she was in the way.
Later, when they traveled together, Yun Qing went to pick fruits for them, but Wen Xinlan and Yun Xiangrong argued because of a disagreement, and then the two pushed and shoved, and she accidentally pushed Yun Xiangrong down the dirt slope.
She was afraid of being blamed by Yun Qing, so she cautiously wanted to go down to save Yun Xiangrong, but she didn't expect to fall herself.
Unexpectedly, after Yun Qing came, he left directly with Yun Xiangrong.
But she was brought back to Wenfu by the subordinates he called.
It was also after that time that she held a grudge against Yun Xiangrong, and she was not as enthusiastic about Yun Qing as she was at the beginning, so she later looked down on him more and more and wanted to withdraw from the marriage.
But in the thirty years of Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, no one expected that the young man who was not favored at the beginning would now become a majestic general.
Any girl has a heroic dream in her heart, who doesn't fantasize that her sweetheart will come to marry her on a white horse, especially when this person is her fiancΓ©. The feeling of joy is even stronger.
So the moment she saw Yun Qing return to Beijing, Wen Xinlan decided to marry him for everything.
But Yun Xiangrong has become the biggest stumbling block!
When Wen Xinlan was thinking about these things fiercely in her heart, Mrs. Wen spoke.
"I think this auspicious princess is not wrong, and it is indeed so." As Mrs. Wen spoke, she told Yun Xiangrong's words to Wen Xinlan, and then worried: "Daughter, you have to think about it, if you really marry Yun Qing, you will either have to follow his border and suffer, or you will have to keep the empty house alone, and you will always bear the worry that he may be defeated, how bitter this is, my mother still hopes that you will marry a civil official, and you can see each other every day, and there is not so much suffering." β
Wen Xinlan sneered when she heard this, and said, "Mother, what a princess, it's just a nice gimmick, and she has no real power." Don't be deceived by Yun Xiangrong, she said this, she just didn't want me to marry Yun Fu. There are so many generals in this court, and I haven't seen any general who will not marry for life, not just marry a wife and have children, others can be the general's wife, why can't a daughter? β
Saying that, she snorted coldly, and said: "If marrying a general is really so hard, why does she want to get involved with King Zhennan?" The king of Zhennan was named the general of Zhennan, and this time he came back with Yun Qing, and the scenery was tight. β
When Mrs. Wen heard this, she also frowned, pursed her lips and said, "This matter will be discussed between your mother and your father, and then a decision will be made, you can go back first." β
When Wen Xinlan heard this, she could only bow and retire.
Out of Mrs. Wen's yard, the more she thought about it, the more wrong she felt in her heart, and the more it was not a taste, so she invited her personal maid and instructed her carefully.
Watching the maid leave, Wen Xinlan clenched the handkerchief in her hand, Yun Xiangrong, Yun Qing, I am married, see how you stop me.
On the other hand, after the feast of Wenfu was dispersed, everything that happened in Wenfu was also reported.
At the beginning, it was relatively close to the truth, so the evaluation of Wen Xinlan was mixed, but later, it was Yun Xiangrong's remarks that had the upper hand in private with King Zhennan.
All kinds of slander and smears came into battle together, and Yun Xiangrong instantly became a shameless ** slut.
Because of the separation with her ex-husband, she couldn't bear the loneliness, and she was reluctant to live with people in the blue sky and day.
What is intriguing is that Huo Chen received the news, and did not suppress the matter as soon as possible, but let people prepare horses and enter the palace.
On the other hand, the queen who was far away in Kunning Palace also received the rumors in the market and the real news in Wenfu for the first time.
Since Yun Xiangrong and Huo Chen got involved, the queen no longer dared to underestimate her, and let people stare at her all the time, but whenever there was news, she would come to report it.
When the queen learned that the rumors had slandered Yun Xiangrong, the light in her eyes kept flickering.
"Drive and go to the imperial study." The queen thought for a while, and suddenly raised her voice.
With such a good opportunity, if she doesn't do something, she will be too sorry for Qing'er's suffering.
In the imperial study, the emperor is looking at the excerpts with a straight face.
"Your Majesty, the queen asks to see you." The henchman father-in-law Xiao Dezi said in a low voice.
The emperor put aside the fold he had handled in his hand and said lightly: "What did you say?" β
"No, I didn't." Xiao Dezi hurriedly said.
"Let her in." The emperor commanded.
Secretly lining in my heart, this imperial study is an important place for government affairs, based on the principle that the harem cannot interfere in politics, the queen is the master of the harem, and she has not been summoned, and she will not come, and she must have taken the initiative to ask for a meeting, there must be something.
The emperor was thinking that the queen had already entered the door and saluted.
gave the queen a seat, and the emperor said lightly: "I don't know if the queen has something important to do when she comes to the imperial study." β
"It is true that important matters related to the face of the royal family must be reported to the emperor." The queen said with a straight face when she heard this.
"The concubine asks for a decree to abolish the title of Princess Yunxiang Rong Xiangrui, so as not to damage the face of the royal family." The queen said with a serious face.
The emperor was a little surprised when he heard this, but he didn't expect that the queen would say this when she came this time, but this also made him a little puzzled.
Why did you think about it again?
The emperor said majestically: "Why did the queen say this? Xiangrui offended Qingyang again? β
These words are clearly reminding the queen that she has been embarrassed many times because of Jiang Qing's affairs before, but this time it is like this?
The queen pressed the displeasure in her heart, and said in a low voice: "The concubine just heard that the Wen Mansion held a banquet, during which Princess Xiangrui was in the same room with a man, and was later exposed by the eldest lady of the Wen family, and also beat Miss Wen, this kind of behavior is really despicable." Now there are rumors that Xiangrui can't bear the loneliness outside, and the blue sky and people are reluctant to live with each other, which is really immoral. β
The queen said, quietly raising her eyes to look at the emperor's expression.
She didn't say that the man was Huo Chen, but when the emperor asked about it, she could also say that she didn't know.
Seeing that the emperor frowned, the queen said again: "It is that the king of Zhennan has long said that he wants to marry Xiangrui, and such a rumor has been spread." Even if she is still complete, this marriage should also be cautious. Moreover, Xiangrui has the title of princess, but he acts so recklessly, which simply damages the face of the royal family, and the concubine asks the emperor to abolish Xiangrui's title, so as not to insult the royal family. β
The emperor frowned tightly when he heard this, the queen said it impartially, and she thought about the royal family's face everywhere, and she couldn't allow him not to think about it.
Ruoyun wants Rong to really have this thing, the title of this princess. The stigma is beared.
"Coming" thought for a while, and the emperor made a decision and opened his mouth to call people.
The queen just looked at the emperor with a smile, but she sneered in her heart.
For a long time, the confrontation with Yun Xiangrong seemed to be won by her and Jiang Qing, but in fact, Yun Xiangrong was everywhere to gain benefits, and this time she wanted to knock Yun Xiangrong off the clouds and fall into the mud.
At this time, the father-in-law who was waiting at the door hurriedly entered the door and said, "Your Majesty." King Zhennan asks to see him. β
The emperor paused to speak, but the queen frowned without a trace.
She had just explained to the emperor, and seeing that she wanted to regain Yun Xiangrong's title as a princess, King Zhennan came at this time, and the queen suddenly felt a little uncertain in her heart.
The emperor stopped the idea of passing the decree and said to the chamberlain: "Let him in." β
Huo Chen is now an important chess piece in his hands, and he naturally has to make good use of it, and he will not be slow to do so.
Huo Chen entered the imperial study, noticed that the queen was there, and then saw that the emperor's face was not too good, and vaguely understood something in his heart.
"The minister has seen the emperor, long live my emperor, long live." Huo Chen saluted respectfully.
"Aiqing is flat." The emperor said lightly.
However, Huo Chen did not get up, but knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said, "Your Majesty, the ministers have something to ask for." β
If you have something to ask for, you naturally have to kneel and beg.
"What?" The emperor looked at Huo Chen and asked.
"The minister wants to ask the emperor to marry the minister and Princess Xiangrui." Huo Chen said calmly.
The emperor suddenly wrinkled his eyebrows and said, "I heard that Xiangrui recently caused a scandal in Wenfu, and she has a bad reputation now, so she is not worthy of you." β
Originally, after knowing that Yun Xiangrong was finished, the emperor thought about it. If Huo Chen asks to marry again, he will go with the flow, after all, this is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.
It can not only make Huo Chen accept his fulfillment, but also make Yun Xuan, who loves his daughter, more loyal to him.
It's just that Yun Xiangrong did this, but he couldn't make this decision.
After all, a woman's reputation is gone, and if he still lets the two get married, I'm afraid it will make the courtiers next to him have ideas.
"I wonder where the emperor heard about this?" Huo Chen asked calmly.
"I just learned from the queen that the queen asked to regain the title of Princess Xiangrui, saying that the rumors in the market are difficult to hear and damage the face of the royal family, and before you came, I and the queen were discussing this matter." The emperor said lightly.
For the royal family, the face of the royal family is naturally extremely important.
If it weren't for this, how could King Xiang be relegated to a fief and have no chance to fight for succession?
It was because the rumors of his broken sleeve were immoral, and the emperor would never allow such a prince to ascend the throne, so he issued an edict that King Xiang should not be summoned and could not return to Beijing for life, otherwise it would be regarded as rebellion.
Huo Chen hooked the corners of his lips and said calmly: "The queen mother is really well-informed, what happened this morning, the queen mother knew about it in the afternoon, and discussed this matter with the emperor, which is really surprising to the minister." β
Hearing this, the queen's heart suddenly sank, and she hurriedly raised her eyes to look at the emperor, and saw a flash of displeasure in the emperor's eyes.
She is a queen, but the news is more well-informed than the emperor, which can only explain two points, first, she deliberately pays attention to Yun Xiangrong and can quickly know the news about her; Second, she has hands and eyes to the sky and has huge power.
These two points, no matter which point, can make the emperor suspicious and displeased.
The queen opened her mouth to explain, but Huo Chen continued: "Does the emperor know who is with Xiangrui? β
"The queen didn't mention it." In the end, it was his own queen, and the emperor didn't show any emotions in front of Huo Chen, and said calmly.
"It is Weichen who is with Princess Xiangrui, speaking of which is Weichen who has ruined the reputation of the princess, as compensation, when Weichen marries the princess. This not only preserved the royal face, but also fulfilled the wish of the minister to marry, and asked the emperor for permission. Huo Chen hugged his fists.
The emperor frowned when he heard this, obviously considering whether this matter was appropriate.
The queen on the side spoke softly and said: "Xiangrui has always been in turmoil, not suitable for wife, even the old princess is unwilling, there are thousands of good daughters in this world, why should the prince insist on her alone." β
The queen was a little anxious in her heart, looking at the frowning emperor.
Yun Xiangrong is a difficult person to deal with, and Huo Chen is a powerful one, if Yun Xiangrong marries Huo Chen. The back house of the Zhennan Wangfu can't be spoken by Li Mingyue alone, Yun Xiangrong will definitely be able to hold up a piece of heaven for Huo Chen, and if he wants to go to the back house to deal with Huo Chen, it will be even more difficult, how can the queen be willing?
"No matter how good others are, Weichen only wants Xiangrui alone. Weichen's marriage is not a matter of the queen's mother. Huo Chen responded calmly, and said to the emperor: "This time the victory returned to the dynasty, the emperor promised the ministers to raise their own rewards, and the ministers did not want to reward them, and they were willing to exchange military merits for family affairs with Xiangrui." Ask the emperor to fulfill it. β
"That's it." The emperor at the top sighed and waved his hand, and said, "Since you are so persistent, I will grant you this wish, and the holy decree of marriage will be transmitted to the Zhennan Wangfu and the Prime Minister's Mansion later." β
When Huo Chen heard this, even if he had already expected it in his heart, he would not be angry at this time.
"Thank you, Lord Long." Huo Chen kowtowed and thanked him.
He looked at the square inch in front of him, and his heart was full of joy.
Ever since he decided in his heart that Yun Xiangrong wanted to be there, Huo Chen had been thinking about how to marry her home in the name of justice.
Now that I have finally got what I wanted, how can I not be happy.
"If you don't have anything to do, go back to your house and wait." The emperor pretended to be displeased and said coldly.
"Yes. Wechen retired. Huo Chen responded, and then respectfully withdrew from the imperial study.
"Does the emperor really want to marry the king of Zhennan? This auspicious "The queen looked at the emperor and wanted to say something.
The emperor's indifferent gaze fell on the queen, and he said coldly: "The queen wants to be untrustworthy? β
"The concubine doesn't dare." The queen opened her mouth and finally whispered.
"If you don't dare, step back. As the master of the harem, the queen usually takes care of the harem, and it is better to take care of this external matter. The emperor said lightly.
This was a warning to the queen not to stretch her hand too far.
The queen's face turned slightly pale when she heard this, and she answered "yes" before retreating.
wanted to harm Yun and wanted to tolerate, but he couldn't, but he even affected himself, and the queen could be regarded as stealing chickens and rice.
The queen's bowels were blue at the moment.
I knew that Huo Chen would enter the palace at this time, she said that she would not come to the imperial study to say that she would deprive Yun Xiangrong of her title, isn't this a slap in the face!
It's just that no matter how much you regret it, it's useless, and you know that it's hard to buy. Now I can only find a way to make them uncomfortable.
There is also the piece of jade in Huo Chen's hand, although there is no movement from Huo Chen now, but it is hard to guarantee that he will not know the use of the jade and the death of his father in the end!
Some things are wrong once, so they can only be wrong all the time, just to make up for the hole of the first time, Huo Chen can't stay!
A touch of ruthlessness flashed in the queen's eyes, and she returned to her Kunning Palace.
After a while, a grandmother came out of Kunning Palace and went to the outside of the palace.
On the other hand, the Prime Minister's Mansion also received the news that there would be a holy decree for Yun Xiangrong to marry in a while, and asked them to prepare to receive the decree.
The Yun family of three was sitting in the main hall.
"Why did the emperor suddenly decree this time. Do you know why? Yun Qing was a little strange and asked Yun Xuan.
Yun Xuan looked very calm, fiddling with the teacup in one hand, and said lightly: "I'll know when the time comes." β
Yun Xiangrong, however, jumped in a little panic in his heart, and was silent.
The news of the emperor's decree spread throughout the Prime Minister's Mansion, and all the subordinates changed into decent new clothes and gathered together to discuss.
Luoxia Garden used to be Jiang Hanyu's courtyard, and when she was beautiful, Luoxia Garden was also repaired to an extremely high grade.
But with Jiang Hanyu's downfall, Luoxiayuan also fell into depression.
A whole year of wind and sun and no one to repair and manage. The once vermilion gate had faded red, and the walls had climbed with a lot of moss.
Jiang Hanyu has had a better year than death.
The wound on her buttocks was barely healed after using up the medicine Yun Jie had secretly sent, but she had also become a little divine because of the high fever and long-term lonely confinement.
Several of the subordinates of Luoxia Yuan gathered together to talk about the news that the Holy Decree was coming.
When several people were discussing, Jiang Hanyu happened to come to the door, and when he heard their discussions, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his chaotic eyes.
She was so excited that she put her hands on the door, and her eyes were full of tears.
No one knows how she got over this year, and she tried her best to hold on, wasn't she just waiting for an opportunity?
Jiang Hanyu tried his best to endure the excitement in his heart and patted the door. shouted, "Come on, there's no water in the teapot." β
When the people outside heard this, they couldn't help but spit out and curse for bad luck.
A servant girl reluctantly got up and walked inside with a jug of water.
When the door was opened, the servant girl walked in with a flickered face, filled the teapot with water, and turned to leave.
Jiang Hanyu grabbed her.
The servant girl was about to get angry when she stared, but Jiang Hanyu smiled lowly, spread out her left hand, and placed a shiny and round jade bracelet on her palm, which was a priceless thing at a glance.
The maidservant's eyes were straight.
Jiang Hanyu retracted his hand and said, "What happened outside?" You tell me carefully, make it clear, this bracelet is yours, how about it? β
Jiang Hanyu's eyes flashed, and the hand holding the bracelet kept tightening.
"There's news in the front hall that there will be a decree coming later, and everyone is talking about it." The maidservant hurriedly said.
Jiang Hanyu confirmed the news, was excited, grabbed the handmaid's hand, and said in a low voice: "I know that you have gained a lot of benefits in my house this year, but I have also hidden a lot of good things myself, all of which are priceless things. You help me do something, and after the thing is done, all those things will be yours, and this bracelet is considered a deposit, how about it? β
Jiang Hanyu knew that this was the last method he could use, buying it with a lot of money, and if he could do it, he would succeed if he could, but he couldn't do it
In the main hall, the subordinates have already placed the incense case. And Yun Xuan and Yun Qing also put on official uniforms.
"The Divine Decree has arrived." There was singing outside, and then a father-in-law walked in with the holy decree.
"The minister takes the order." Yun Xuan took the lead in kneeling down to receive the order.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said, the Yun family has a daughter, smart and clever, virtuous and virtuous, today I will marry Huo Chen, the king of Zhennan, and choose a day to complete the marriage, Qin this." As the shrill voice of the father-in-law fell, it was followed by the voice of Shane.
Yun Xiangrong behind Yun Xuan was a little dazed.
She didn't expect that the holy decree would be a marriage.
For her and Huo Chen.
She was ready to wait, but she didn't want to think that the holy decree of marriage suddenly came, and happiness came so suddenly.
Yun Xiangrong lowered his head and couldn't help but purse his lips and smile.
She knew he would take care of everything.
"Congratulations to Xiangye, this Yun general has just returned victoriously, and Princess Xiangrui is happy again, congratulations." The father-in-law waved towards Yun Xuan.
"My father-in-law is polite." Yun Xuan smiled and spoke, asking the housekeeper on the side to send a thick red envelope.
The father-in-law smiled and took it, and then congratulated Yun Xiangrong and complimented him.
Just as he was about to leave, a hoarse cry came from inside.
"Father-in-law, help, father-in-law." As soon as the father-in-law left, he saw a young man popping out from the side and rushing towards the father-in-law.
The father-in-law was startled, and his face changed.
The guards on the side protected his father-in-law behind him, raised his foot and kicked directly on Yun Jie's body.
Yun Jie screamed and flew out, holding his stomach and wailing.
When his father-in-law saw that he was safe, he hurriedly reprimanded, "Who are you?" It's so presumptuous. His voice was sharply sharp, clearly frightened.
And Yun Xuan and the others on the side were a sigh in their hearts.
Isn't this Yun Jie locked up? How did you get out?
Yun Jie can come out, naturally it is Jiang Hanyu's credit. The servant girl did not resist the temptation of money. secretly released Yun Jie and let him come to the main hall.
What Jiang Hanyu told her was that Yun Jie was also the young master of Yun Mansion, so why couldn't he accept the order, let him take a look.
But the scene of Yun Jie rushing out in front of her was something she couldn't have imagined.
She knew that something was wrong, and secretly turned around and went towards Luoxia Garden angrily.
And Yun Jie cried out: "Father-in-law help." I am Yun Jie, the second young master of Yunfu, Yun Xuan, he killed his wife and children, he is not a human being. I am sure that my father-in-law will listen to the grievances of us and give me justice. β
The father-in-law was stunned for a moment, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on Yun Xuan's body.
Yun Xuan's face was calm. With some compassion, he sighed lightly and said, "Let my father-in-law laugh." A year ago, the child was stimulated and was not in good spirits, which caused such an ugly thing, and it was also based on this consideration that he was not called to answer the order, not wanting to be negligent and frightening his father-in-law. β
"What are you still doing, don't take the second young master down." Yun Xuan commanded to the subordinates on the side.
"Yunxuan, you brute, you are sanctimonious. You're a hypocrite, do you think you can lock me up for the rest of my life? When the emperor and my mother know about my mother's grievances, they will make decisions for us, don't think about it, don't think about it. Yun Jie screamed frantically, trying to break free, but was pressed down and taken down.
Thinking of having to live that dark and secluded life again, Yun Jie's eyes couldn't help but show sadness.
Seeing this, the father-in-law who delivered the decree frowned and didn't say anything.
Instead, he said to Yun Xuan: "This is Xiangye's family background, since the second young master is sick, he shouldn't have been released to collide with others, then our family will leave." β
The father-in-law took the people away, but the faces of the three members of the Yun family sank.
