Chapter 246: Scandal
These men were all handsome, thin in shape, and their faces were smeared with grease and powder.
The man lying on Mu Wuhou's body was even more angry.
It's a sissy.
"Don't blame His Royal Highness King Xiang, if you want to blame, only blame that slut!" Mu Wuhou's face was distorted, and he gritted his teeth and shouted: "In the future, I will definitely let her not survive, she can't die, and taste all the torture and humiliation in the world!" ”
"Why don't I kill her!" A man flicked his sleeves.
"Nope." Mu Wuhou hurriedly stopped, "Now the emperor still has a place for her." ”
"But you're ......hurt," wept the men.
"It just so happens that the emperor is going to send me to go outside on a mission, and this time I was beaten, so I can make up a good excuse." Mu Wuhou let a few men bring medicinal wine to rub himself, and endured the pain and said: "Ben Hou can say that he was beaten by King Xiang, and his injuries are very serious, and he will not see guests in the short term." ”
"Master Hou endures humiliation and burden, and he will definitely be able to achieve great things in the future!"
"Not bad!"
"Throughout the ages, who can be as loyal and patriotic as Lord Hou?"
"Master Hou is not an ordinary person!"
Several men gathered together and praised one after another.
Mu Wuhou's face gradually improved.
At the same time, I strengthened my confidence that what I did was right!
As a courtier of the Great Qi royal family, he should obey the emperor's orders, even if the emperor lets himself die, he can't disobey the holy order.
I have a loyal heart.
I believe that the emperor has already clearly known that when the major event is successful, he will definitely fulfill his promise and confer himself as the first king with a different surname in Daqi.
Thinking of the glory of the future, Mu Wuhou gradually looked away at the humiliation he suffered now.
Back in the bedroom, Mrs. Diexiang kept crying, and King Xiang saw that she was in a very bad mood, so he could only sigh lightly and take the initiative to leave.
Lady Diexiang ignored King Xiang's rules and sent it to the gate of the mansion.
"Today, thanks to the help of His Royal Highness King Xiang, otherwise, otherwise...... Whining! Lady Dieka wept again.
King Xiang's handsome face was full of pity and tenderness, "That's what this king should do, if Muwu Marquis dares to bully you again in the future, you can send someone to the palace to send a letter, and this king will naturally bring someone over to teach you a lesson." ”
"Thank you, Your Highness." Madame Diexiang thanked her with a blessing.
After a few words of encouragement to Mrs. Diexiang, King Xiang walked into the convoy and left.
King Xiang's convoy was escorted by nearly 100 people, and after getting out, it was divided into three convoys and left separately.
Just as King Xiang walked towards the convoy, a group of guards greeted him and surrounded King Xiang.
The people next to him couldn't see which carriage King Xiang got into.
The reason why this is the case is that you have to be careful, for fear of taking the road where King Huai was killed.
The convoy was moving, and there were people scattered far away, clearing the road to disperse the crowd, while monitoring the surroundings for anomalies.
"Lord Wang, today you beat the Marquis of Muwu......" In a luxurious carriage, King Xiang sat on the brocade couch with his eyes slightly closed, and a guard with a knife next to him frowned and said softly.
King Xiang waved his hand lightly and opened his eyes, "Marquis Muwu is crazy, do you really think that you can be the first king with a different surname since the founding of the Great Qi?" ”
There was disdain in his voice.
The reason why Daqi did not crown the king with a different surname was nothing more than that he was worried that the king with a different surname would rebel!
To be a king with a different surname, he must be a person with outstanding military achievements, such a person has a heavy army, and he also has a very high prestige in the army, once he is awarded, then even the emperor is difficult to suppress, and if he wants to divide his power, he can only be crowned a second prince.
This leads to a vicious circle.
One after another, kings with different surnames will be born one after another.
If there is only one king with a different surname, then the princes will be the next high, and they will be faintly headed by him.
The prince has the status of the prince.
The emperor can't suppress it on the surface, and he is named the prince, which is a kind of favor and reward for the courtiers, and he has to maintain the majesty of the prince in front of hundreds of officials everywhere.
In such an environment, the prestige of the prince is not something that other officials can compete with.
"The emperor has already agreed." The guard spoke again.
No one could have imagined how Zhao Yang, the eldest prince, who had always been low-key and lacked background, knew that an agreement had been reached between the emperor and the Marquis of Muwu.
"Father agreed, but how many people know?"
King Xiang slowly rubbed the ring on the thumb of his right hand, the ring was shiny and translucent, and it was made of fine jade, "Only the fool of Mu Wuhou will be convinced, and there are many ways to become a king with a different surname."
For example, get rid of great things before they happen! ”
"But the Marquis of Mu Wuhou is now being reused by the emperor, and you beat him......"
"Hitting him just shows that we don't know about the agreement reached between my father and the Marquis of Muwu."
"Your Highness is clever!"
King Xiang frowned and was silent.
Is it smart?
No matter how clever he is, he can't compare to the advantages of the prince's natural lineage and the huge power of the second brother's maternal line!
On the same day, King Xiang supported Mrs. Diexiang and let the guards beat Muwuhou violently, which spread throughout the aristocratic circle of the capital.
"King Xiang was really fascinated by Mrs. Diexiang."
"Muwu Hou is really miserable!"
"Mrs. Diexiang, that slut is indeed a long-term disaster for the country and the people!"
Say anything.
But no one knew that in the afternoon of the same day, a figure secretly walked into the Muwu Marquis Mansion.
In the evening, it is a quiet departure.
Mrs. Dieka leaned on the bed, motionless like a stone sculpture.
After a long time, the sun went down, and the house gradually fell into darkness, and Mrs. Diexiang was in pain, and sighed lightly, "Little wrongdoer, should the concubine believe you?" ”
The next day, the Boom newspaper went crazy again.
"Smack!"
In the palace hall, the old emperor angrily smashed his favorite jade cup on the dragon case, and his pale beard kept shaking.
What a guts!
Do this Jing family and the Chai family really dare to treat me as nothing?
How dare you publish such a thing in a newspaper?
It turned out that the person who entered the Muwuhou Mansion yesterday was sent by Chai Shirong, and Jiang Long had given Chai Shirong many ideas before, and copied it as a scandal between men and women, and published the secrets of the Xungui family Jiang Long said that Chai Shirong knew that Jiang Long had some friendship with Mrs. Diexiang, so after hearing that King Xiang had beaten Muwuhou for Mrs. Diexiang, he sent someone to find Mrs. Diexiang.
He said he wanted to publish it in the newspaper.
And borrowed Jiang Long's reputation and said that Jiang Long had commanded.
Madame Butterfly hesitated for a long time, but finally agreed, and talked about what had happened.
Of course, things have certainly been modified.
Copying scandals, this kind of thing is the most curious, and it is the first time it has appeared in the newspaper.
Ordinary people were originally very curious about the affairs of the wealthy court and the royal family, and when they saw the news published above, they naturally paid for it.
So the heyday newspaper went crazy.
Directly out of stock.
"I don't know what Mrs. Diexiang looks like, is she really as beautiful as a fairy?"
"Of course, otherwise, how could His Royal Highness King Xiang be angry at the crown?"
"Recruiting bees and attracting butterflies, harming one's own father-in-law is beaten, not as beautiful as a fairy, but a red face and trouble!"
"Muwu Hou is really miserable!"
"There must be something hateful about the wretched!"
"King Xiang turned out to be a womanizer!"
"It's hard to be greedy for beauty."
"It's a shame that King Xiang is still from a royal family."
In the market, there are all kinds of things to say, of course, some people with ulterior motives are indispensable to help the trouble.
The matter is so big, the old emperor is naturally very angry.
This has already affected the reputation of the royal family.
However, this is again true.
The old emperor didn't know what to do for a while.
It's really inexperienced.
Moreover, there are some rat throwers, and they can't pick up the Chai family and the Jing family strongly.
And the emperor delayed and hesitated, and the next day, except for the newspaper industry controlled by the emperor, other newspapers reprinted the news one after another, so the incident became even bigger, and many newspapers imitated it one after another, digging out the unspeakable privacy in other noble circles.
The purpose, of course, is to strike at the opponent.
And the person who is targeted will naturally not stand still, but also dig out the mistakes and omissions of the other party and give a counterattack.
So the capital is in turmoil.
The old emperor looked at the newspapers on the dragon case, his eyes were red with anger, and the green tendons on the back of his hands were rising.
The Jing family and the Chai family touched his bottom line again and again!
This time, it almost blew up the old emperor's lungs.
In his heart, he was also secretly scolding King Xiang, if it weren't for King Xiang being fascinated by beauty, he wouldn't have made such a mess.
"Secret Xuanmu Wuhou is here!" The emperor decreed.
The old eunuch took the order and stepped back.
After meeting with Muwuhou, the old emperor naturally appeased him first, and then sent Muwuhou to northern Xinjiang to carry out a mission.
Mu Wuhou, who had not yet recovered from his injuries, quietly left the capital with a few gold-clothed guards.
Xiangwangfu.
An old eunuch raised his chin and left proudly.
King Xiang, who was kneeling on the ground, held the hand of the girl ring who rushed over, and slowly got up, looking like he knew what was wrong.
Earlier, the old eunuch had been ordered to come and rebuke him.
scolded him for ignoring the decency of the royal family, being fascinated by beauty, and beating other people's fathers-in-law.
A stinky scolding, mean and vicious words, if you change someone, you are afraid that you will be scolded and cried directly, and you will faint.
But King Xiang was in the palace, because his mother was low, so he was bullied, and few people dared to touch his moldy head until he grew up, so he could still listen to this vicious words, but he just confessed his guilt and knew his mistakes.
The princess looked worried and stepped forward, "Lord Wang." ”
King Xiang waved his hand lightly, "Father is right, this time it was this king who was reckless, and the tired princess lost her dignity and was wronged." ”
The husband and wife are the same, and the old eunuch also scolded Princess Xiang before, saying that she did not serve King Xiang well.
"What did the prince say?" Princess Xiang shook her head, "This grievance is nothing. ”
King Xiang ignored the fact that there were still people standing beside him, and gently held his wife's hand.
The princess's pretty face instantly flushed.
However, she didn't expect that King Xiang, who looked gentle and cared about her this time, was thinking about the stakes after being reprimanded this time.
The crown prince and the second brother, should be happy now, right?
As he expected, the crown prince and the second prince were of course happy at the moment.
Although the crown prince's position is relatively stable now, the eldest prince is older and still poses a threat to him.
Seeing that King Xiang was deflated, the prince was naturally in a good mood.
The second prince's ability is mediocre, but the matriarchal power is very huge, and Concubine Cheng is blowing the pillow wind in the palace.
has always regarded the crown prince and King Xiang as their biggest competitors.
Now that one of the opponents was scolded by the emperor, he was naturally very happy.
