111. I've already started to be a faint king
Chapter 111: I've Started to Be a Faint King
The next day, the court was exempted.
Uninformed courtiers and palace people all said that the royal family knows how to hunt, ride horses and shoot arrows, and must be tired, what's the big deal about not having a day off?
The palace and courtiers who knew didn't say anything, smiled meaningfully, and everyone went to their own business.
When the sun was on the third pole, the master of Fanghua Palace raised his head, looked at someone who was smiling and squinting, and said solemnly: "I saw the shadow of the faint monarch on your body." β
"Huh?" Lu Li lowered his head and looked at her.
Su Qingyuan climbed his shoulder and rubbed forward, with a worried face: "I'm serious!" You've been missing the morning pilgrimage too many times lately, and it's becoming more and more frequent - now it's every once in a while, will you simply not be lazy in the future? Then, is it possible to listen to partial beliefs, pro-villains, and distant virtuous ministers, and harm the loyal and good? β
"It's already started." Lu Li said casually.
"What started?" Su Qingyuan was puzzled.
Lu Li turned sideways and hugged her, smiling: "On the way back to the city yesterday, I have ordered Dingguo Gong, Da Sima and Chongzheng to be imprisoned pending trial. Like Cheng Yu, who had no foundation to dig up not long after taking office, he simply didn't even try it, and was directly dismissed and sent back to his hometown. β
Su Qingyuan was shocked.
Lu Li pulled her hair and added: "The military department is more than half empty, but fortunately, there is nothing to do at the end of the year, and I will leave it to General Su to take care of." β
Su Qingyuan stretched out her hand and probed his forehead.
No fever.
She hesitated, then grabbed Lu Li's hand and looked at it for a long time.
It doesn't seem like a big deal.
Didn't become stupid, didn't have a fever, and didn't become a puppet by witchcraft.
"Why?" Su Qingyuan asked tremblingly.
Lu Li rubbed her round belly and smiled: "Shouldn't it be like this?" fornicating with foreign enemies, forming parties for personal gain, and colluding with the harem...... They've been bouncing so hard lately, how can there be no problem? If I go to prison for a while, and then interrogate me strictly after the New Year, I will definitely not be disappointed. β
Su Qingyuan's eyes widened and she looked at him in a daze.
Even if he was crazy, he wouldn't have done such a thing to destroy the Great Wall!
"What are you...... Will it be counted? Su Qingyuan asked tentatively.
Lu Li deepened his smile and imprinted a kiss on her forehead.
Su Qingyuan's heart calmed down a little, but she still couldn't help worrying: "But...... Those people are your right-hand men! Wouldn't it be the equivalent of standing defenseless in front of a beast if you locked them all up......"
"You compare your father to a beast?" Lu Li asked with a smile.
Su Qingyuan was so angry that he slapped him heavily on the chest: "I'm going to tell you the right thing!" β
"You don't have to worry, I know it." Lu Li smiled, lazy.
Su Qingyuan turned her back and didn't want to pay attention to him anymore.
Lu Li hugged her tightly, and his chest was tightly pressed against her back: "Ah Kite, the mountain rain is coming, I'm afraid the next days will be difficult." β
"I shouldn't hold you back." Su Qingyuan said in a muffled voice.
"Of course not." Lu Li chuckled behind her ear.
Su Qingyuan wanted to get up, but she was reluctant.
Her increasingly bulky body was an excellent excuse, and now was the time when she could be willful.
Having someone to lie in bed with you, even if you are idle enough to count the light and shadow on the window lattice, it is also a very happy thing.
This happiness, as usual, was interrupted by Luoxia's voice.
Luo Xia said that Princess Mingyue of Zeguo was out asking to see her.
Lu Lihuo: "You are getting better and better at errands now!" What mess people won't send away? β
Luo Xia had expected this to be the result, but she still felt a little aggrieved: "It's not that the slave maid is unwilling to work hard, it's just that Princess Mingyue has always refused to leave - she came early in the morning, and she is still sitting in the front hall at this time." She claimed that she had something to say to her mother, and said that if she refused to see her, she would keep waiting......"
"Then let her keep waiting! Don't give her tea and snacks, and don't talk to her, just hang her! Lu Li was obviously very annoyed.
Luo Xia didn't say anything more, presumably went down to do it.
Lu Li was furious, and exhaled heavily: "Annoying thing!" β
Su Qingyuan lifted the corners of the quilt, and lay back reluctantly: "It's time to get up." β
"I don't want to." Lu Li put his hands around her breasts.
"Where are you touching?!" Su Qingyuan was annoyed.
Lu Li blinked his eyes and looked aggrieved: "You can't blame me for this!" I want to put my arm around your waist, but ...... I can't find your waist! β
"Who is to blame?" Su Qingyuan gritted her teeth.
Lu Li grinned, revealing a mouth full of white teeth: "Blame me, blame me." β
Su Qingyuan slapped the back of his hand heavily: "Take it away!" β
Lu Li was a little aggrieved, but he didn't dare to offend his little lioness seriously.
So, Su Qingyuan finally got up with a stomach full of anger.
That Princess Mingyue, she didn't want to see it.
But the woman's temperament was clearly not weak. If she refuses to see her, the other party may really wait forever.
Su Qingyuan is not afraid of being threatened, but she is afraid that someone will rely on her territory and refuse to leave.
So, let's see each other.
Su Qingyuan slowly put on her clothes and looked back at Lu Li: "I'll go see her, and you will go out from the sandwich road later." β
"The sandwich road is for the slaves to go, I am the king of a country, you let me go out of the sandwich road?" Lu Li's face darkened.
Su Qingyuan tightened her brows: "Otherwise, what should I do?" Luoxia said, "The woman came early in the morningβhow do you explain that you showed up to me early in the morning?" β
"No matter, I'm not going anyway!" Lu Li rolled up the quilt and began to play tricks.
"Good, obedient." Su Qingyuan had no choice but to coax him patiently.
Lu Li turned his head and "snorted", and said stubbornly: "Don't want me to compromise!" You go to see that woman, I sneak away through the mezzanine, what does that look like? It's like cheating! β
"Or what do you think you're doing right now?" Su Qingyuan asked impatiently.
Lu Li narrowed his eyes and smiled meaningfully.
Su Qingyuan glanced at him.
Lu Li beckoned to her with a smile and pointed to his face.
In order to coax him away, Su Qingyuan had to reluctantly walk back and perfunctorily pecked him on the cheek.
Lu Li grinned, smiling so much that he couldn't see his teeth.
Su Qingyuan tugged at the corners of her lips: "You can leave now, right?" β
"Let's go? Why? Lu Li reached out and took her into his arms, and wanted to pull her clothes again.
Su Qingyuan hurriedly pressed his hand: "Didn't you promise to be obedient!" β
"When did I say yes?" Lu Li looked surprised.
Su Qingyuan was angry.
Lu Li finally propped up half of his body, sat up on Su Qingyuan's shoulder, and laughed in her ear: "You just said that I came to you to cheat - since it's 'cheating', how can I be willing to leave without tasting the sweetness?" β
Su Qingyuan was very aggrieved: "You were obviously ...... last night"
"Last night doesn't count." Lu Li will play tricks to the end.
β¦β¦
Princess Mingyue was fidgeting in the front hall, and her ass was about to grind out bubbles.
Except for the little palace maid who came to add tea twice and sent a few plates of snacks in the morning, no one paid attention to her anymore.
It was nearly noon, the tea had already been drunk, and most of the snacks had been eaten.
Princess Mingyue has been well-educated since she was a child, and she knows that she can't eat too much when she goes out as a guest. It would be humiliating to empty all the plates, as if you hadn't eaten enough at home.
Therefore, there must always be a little left in each plate, and you can't eat it all.
The dim sum in Fanghua Palace is really good, with good color and taste.
The aroma has not dissipated, which makes the hungry Princess Mingyue feel more and more difficult to time.
She knew that she was not welcomed, but she didn't expect to be so unpopular.
At this point, she should have decisively gotten up and left.
But how can you be willing?
Princess Mingyue gritted her teeth and continued to sit steadily, looking at her nose and her nose at her heart.
At the beginning of the day, footsteps finally sounded outside the door again.
Princess Mingyue hurriedly sat down, flicked her sleeves, and was upright.
The little girl who came in lowered her eyebrows and was expressionless: "The queen mother is invited, the princess, please come with me." β
Princess Mingyue smiled, stood up calmly and gracefully, straightened her robe, and walked slowly.
But the little girl walked fast.
Princess Mingyue was afraid of losing it, so she had to speed up her pace, so she didn't care about anything calm and elegant.
When she walked to the main hall, Princess Mingyue was exhausted and out of breath.
The little girl put up a curtain in front of her to let her in. Princess Mingyue had no choice but to tuck her clothes around and step into the door.
Su Qingyuan sat on the soft couch in the front, with a small square table on the right hand, and an empty space on the right side of the small square table.
Princess Mingyue saluted, saw two cups of tea on the small square table, hesitated for a moment, and then walked over and sat down.
"Bold!" The little girl next to her broke off and snorted.
Princess Mingyue shuddered, and was busy standing in front of Su Qingyuan, at a loss.
Su Qingyuan smiled: "It's okay, sit down." β
Princess Mingyue sat sideways on one of the chairs below, hesitating and not daring to speak.
Su Qingyuan smiled and was very kind: "You don't have to be careful, those who don't know are not guilty." β
The little girl sneered beside her: "It's true that the 'ignorant' is not guilty, but the 'ignorant' should be considered a big crime!" South Vietnam is honored by the West, and even a three-year-old child knows this! A soft couch sits on the east side of the queen mother, and there are still people who dare to sit in the west position - I can be regarded as having a long experience today! β
Princess Mingyue was so frightened that her face turned blue.
"Danyue, don't talk too much!" Su Qingyuan was still smiling, looking very good-tempered.
Princess Mingyue hurriedly got up again to make amends, but she couldn't remember the words she had prepared.
So, Su Qingyuan opened the conversation leisurely: "The mourning family was sick for days and couldn't go out, and yesterday I took advantage of the warmth of the afternoon to go out for a walk, and when I came back, I felt very tired, so I told the girls not to disturb." Who knew that this group of minions was also dead-eyed, and it wasn't until after noon, when the mourning family couldn't lie down, that they mentioned that the princess was still waiting outsideβthis was really a bastard. Those who know say that the minions are ignorant, and those who don't know think that the mourning family intends to snub the distinguished guests. β
Princess Mingyue was busy owing herself, and said with a smile: "The Queen Mother is not safe, and we as juniors don't know that we can't come over to serve, it's ours." β
"Thank you princess for your kindness, the Queen Mother has us by her side! Fewer people came to disturb the peace of the Queen Mother, so we are thankful! Danyue continued to sneer.
Su Qingyuan glared at her: "You go out first!" β
Danyue snorted, twisted her waist and shook her neck, and staggered out.
"The is not sensible, don't worry about her, princess." Su Qingyuan said lightly.
Princess Mingyue lowered her head and answered "yes" in a low voice for a long time.
Su Qingyuan drank a bowl of tea slowly, and finally remembered the matter: "Listen to the girl, you came over early in the morning?" β
"Yes. The courtiers had something important to report, so they didn't dare not come over to serve earlier. Princess Mingyue stood up and seemed to kneel down again.
Su Qingyuan frowned: "You sit down." kneeling around, the mourning family is also dizzy when they look at it. β
Princess Mingyue had no choice but to sit back and continue to endure the pain of grinding her butt in the chair.
Su Qingyuan beckoned to the table, and the big tanuki jumped onto her lap with a "whoosh" and rolled comfortably.
Su Qingyuan rubbed the cat's belly carelessly, and the corners of her lips curled.
Princess Mingyue sat awkwardly, and only after a long time did she tentatively speak: "The courtier has a big matter, and I want to ask the queen mother to call the shots......"
Su Qingyuan raised his head and looked gloomy: "The life of the mourning family is thin, and the emperor died on the day he entered the palace." You are also a knowledgeable child born in the royal family, and you must be able to understand the situation of the mourning family in this palace. The surviving are only one breath more than the dead, and some people will be verbose if they say a word more - what can the mourning family give you? β
When Princess Mingyue heard this, her face showed a sad look: "The Queen Mother's Day is ...... mourning"
Su Qingyuan showed a wry smile: "There is nothing 'sad' or 'sad', I'm used to it." It's just that I'm also a sick bird in this golden-topped cage, and I can't fly. If you have any problems, you might as well go to the emperor, to the courtiers, to the people...... Even asking for a powerful eunuch is more useful than begging me! β
"The stakes are very high, and the courtiers dare not easily say it to others - only the emperor in the world can solve the difficulties of the courtiers, but the courtiers can't see the emperor, so they can only come to the queen mother to ......"
"If you don't ask him, how do you know you won't see him?" Su Qingyuan frowned.
"It turns out that the Queen Mother doesn't know," Princess Mingyue smiled bitterly, "The emperor refuses to see us." A few days ago, Princess Cailing of Jinluan Kingdom took advantage of the emperor's break in the imperial study to introduce herself, and somehow annoyed the emperor and was killed by the cane on the spot! The prince of Jin Luanguo was so anxious that he had to kneel on the stone steps outside the gate of the palace every day to plead guilty, and it had been eight or nine days! β
"How so?" Su Qingyuan frowned.
Princess Mingyue's expression was sad: "We, the small subordinate countries, life and death are in the emperor's thoughts. Our ancestors have been like this for generations, and we are born inferior, which is also a helpless thing. β
Su Qingyuan thought for a while and sighed: "I live in the palace, but I don't know it. It is true that the emperor does not like women to be frivolous, but he is not a cruel and unreasonable person. You have something to do with him, and he will not be angry for no reason. β
Princess Mingyue lowered her head and wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief: "This truth, the courtiers also understand it in their hearts." Just ......"
She sobbed, unable to speak.
Su Qingyuan had to sigh: "No wonder. He is so fierce, you little girl's family, you are always afraid in your heart. β
Princess Mingyue nodded heavily: "That's exactly why." And...... Moreover, a few years ago, due to the involvement of the Divine Bird Country, Zeguo has long been gone, and the courtiers are only afraid that after seeing the emperor, they will have already caused disaster for Zeguo before they have time to speak......"
Su Qingyuan was confused when she heard it: "What is the reason for this?" β
Princess Mingyue wiped the corners of her eyes: "The courtiers are here for this matter - about the case of the Shenque rebellion many years ago, the courtiers have some inside information to complain, and they dare not ask to see the emperor, so they can only come to the queen mother to ......"
Su Qingyuan quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and the corners of her lips rose uncontrollably.
As long as it's not for her to matchmaker, it's fine.
Princess Mingyue was a little surprised when she saw Su Qingyu's smile.
Su Qingyuan coughed and straightened his face: "You just said that Zeguo was affected by the Divine Sparrow, could it be that Zeguo is also related to the rebellion of the Divine Sparrow back then?" β
Princess Mingyue lowered her head and said: "Zeguo and Shenque Country are adjacent to each other, intermarrying and friendship from generation to generation. After the rebellion of the Shenque Kingdom, the Nanyue Imperial Court ordered the surrounding countries to send troops to crusade, and Zeguo remembered the love of his ancestors, and has been hesitating, and was almost punished for the same crime. Later, it was the grandfather who was the lord of the country at the time who was ruthless, killed a few generals, and imprisoned several uncles, which saved the ...... of Zeguo."
"Your uncles are all related to the Divine Bird Kingdom?" Su Qingyuan frowned and asked.
Princess Mingyue smiled bitterly: "In the harem of the lords of the Ze Kingdom in the past dynasties, more than half of them are women from the Divine Bird Country, and they have been passed down from generation to generation, who can get rid of it?" Among the princes at that time, only my father was not born to a woman from the Shenque Kingdom, but among the concubines of my father at that time, there were also people from the Shenque Kingdom, and later ...... Kill them all. β
"Including your mother?" Su Qingyuan asked in a deep voice.
Princess Mingyue hurriedly shook her head: "My father's knees are desolate, and there were no concubines to give birth to children at that time. The mother of the courtier's daughter was from the Baiyi tribe and had not yet entered the palace at that time. β
Su Qingyuan nodded and let go of the question.
Princess Mingyue continued: "It is true that the rebellion of the Divine Bird Kingdom is true, and it is also true that Zeguo hesitated at that time, and the courtiers did not dare to defend themselves. It's just that there are still some inside information, and since the courtiers know about it, they don't dare to hide it and not report it. β
"Say it." Su Qingyuan pinched the two little ears of the tanuki and said lightly.
Princess Mingyue groaned slightly, gritted her teeth and said: "At that time, the reason why the Shenque Kingdom rebelled was because it was instigated by Xiliang. β
"Xiliang?" Su Qingyu's eyebrows tightened.
The Divine Bird rebelled from South Vietnam to Northern Yan because it was instigated by the Western Liang - is it so complicated?
Princess Mingyue looked solemn: "Exactly!" Western Liang was warlike and had been ambitious for hundreds of years, vainly trying to unify the Three Kingdoms. About seventeen or eighteen years ago, some rumors quietly circulated among the Three Kingdoms, such as 'they must be together for a long time', so Xiliang would play with right and wrong in some small countries...... It was because of the fall of the West Liang that the Divine Bird Kingdom made a big mistake! β
"How do you know these things?" Su Qingyuan asked lightly.
Princess Mingyue raised her head and glanced at Su Qingyuan, and hurriedly lowered her head again: "Because...... Xiliang also instigated Zeguo at that time, but his grandfather was timid and fearful, and he was unmoved. Countries such as Luotan and Khotan may not have been instigated! β
Su Qingyuan frowned and thought for a while, then lowered her head and concentrated on rubbing the cat.
Princess Mingyue waited quietly for a moment, and finally got up and knelt down again, and took out a brocade bag from her sleeve: "If there is no evidence, the courtiers will not dare to speak falsely." These letters were passed on to my grandfather by the envoy of Xiliang that year, and I asked the Queen Mother to read them. β
The little palace maid took it and sent it to Su Qingyu.
Su Qingyuan didn't answer, nodded casually, and motioned for the little palace maid to put it on the table: "Since it is a evidence, the mourning family will hand it over to the emperor as it is, don't worry." β
"Empress Dowager Xie." Princess Mingyue kowtowed and stood up.
Su Qingyuan's expression was indifferent: "If you say it, the mourning family will also truthfully convey it to the emperor." After many years, things are not people, and the past has passed. The current emperor is not prejudiced against Zeguo, so you don't have to worry too much. β
"Courtiers, thank you Queen Mother." Princess Mingyue looked respectful.
Su Qingyuan narrowed her eyes and tilted her body to the backrest: "At that time, you were not yet born, and it was rare to have the heart and courage to talk about this." β
Princess Mingyue humbled for a moment, and finally couldn't help but tentatively say: "The ambition of the wolf son of Xiliang can be seen from this. If the rebel subject country was not the only one of the Shenqi family, I am afraid that the world of Nanyue would be ......"
Su Qingyuan looked calm, stretched out two fingers, and brushed them along the top of the tanuki's head to the tip of the tail: "Nanyue world, I'm afraid it can't be easily subverted by these small means that can't be put on the table." The god sparrow took the wrong path and ended up destroying the country, although it is pitiful and lamentable, but it also has its ridiculous and hateful points, isn't it? β
"The queen mother has seen people, and the courtiers are ashamed." Princess Mingyue bowed her head and said.
Su Qingyuan chuckled: "The mourning family doesn't dare to have any knowledge - the women in the palace, the more unseen, the longer they live." β
The Queen Mother laughed. Princess Mingyue curled the corners of her lips and smiled, still refusing to take the initiative to leave.
Su Qingyuan finally couldn't bear it anymore, covered her mouth and yawned: "If you should pass it on, the mourning family will pass it on to you." Tongyun, let's send Princess Mingyue out. β
"Queen Mother......" Princess Mingyue stood up and stopped talking.
"Princess, please come with the slave." Tongyun stepped forward and saluted, respectfully and respectfully.
Princess Mingyue didn't dare to say more, so she had to bend her knees and retreat.
Listening to the footsteps and walking away, Su Qingyuan breathed a long sigh of relief: "Finally gone-there is such a long-winded girl in the world, and I can be regarded as having a long experience!" β
Lu Li turned out from behind the screen, casually pushed the low table on the couch aside, sat down and scooped Su Qingkite into his arms: "It's hard work." β
Su Qingyuan rubbed his chest and asked in a muffled voice, "Have you guessed her intentions?" Chen Sesame Rotten Grain said so much, I don't know what she wants to do! β
"The little loach can't make big waves, don't worry about her." Lu Li smiled casually, and took out the cat in Su Qingkite's arms and threw it away.
The tanuki meowed, jumped on the low table in anger, and glared.
Su Qingyuan was a little worried.
Lu Li rubbed her waist soothingly, as if rubbing the cat: "Don't think about it anymore, leave it to me." β
"Actually, it's not that simple, is it?" Su Qingyuan raised her head and looked at him.
