Chapter 155: The Turmoil Continues
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the emperor and Empress Wei changed greatly.
"Taiping, are you crazy?" The Emperor roared.
Empress Wei shouted in disbelief: "Taiping, I know that you are good friends with Duchess Ningguo, but no matter how you say that they are also outsiders, we are your dearest family!" In order to protect a few outsiders, you actually hurt your family like this, how can you bear it? What's more, An Le is a golden branch and jade leaf, with royal blood in her bones, but now you want her to take the initiative to bow her head to others and admit her mistakes? Are you trying to force peace and happiness to have no face in the future? ”
"She is very thick-skinned, and she has done many embarrassing things, and now she is not showing off her power outside?" Princess Taiping said.
When Princess Anle heard this, she couldn't help crying.
But immediately, she howled even louder.
When the emperor saw this, he was simply distressed to death. He hurriedly hugged Princess Anle tightly, and also scolded Princess Taiping with a sinking face: "Ning Guogong supports the army and respects himself, and he doesn't take me seriously at all. I sent an angel to invite him back to Chang'an, but he ignored it and drove the angels away! Even if he is not happy in his heart, can't he speak well? is so disloyal, unfilial, unkind, and unjust, I think he is not far from rebellion! ”
After Princess Taiping heard this, her eyes immediately turned cold.
"My sister-in-law told you this, right?"
The Emperor's eyes flashed. "No, I thought of it myself!"
"Brother, what are you, don't you know me? You can't think of this kind of thing at all, it's definitely your sister-in-law who instigated you. Princess Taiping said.
The emperor was immediately speechless.
When Empress Wei saw the emperor's nest, she was angry.
"Yes, I did mention this possibility to the sage. But you have to admit that it is possible, isn't it? Ning Guogong and his family are now guarding Yongxing County with an iron bucket, and they will not allow others to enter at all. If they did, it means they have a ghost in their hearts! ”
"They just don't want you laymen to meddle in the past, and spend half a day in vain, and in the end they have to pull them back to clean up the mess." Princess Taiping scolded unceremoniously, "That's the foundation that others have worked hard to lay for many years, and how much blood and sweat have they paid to get the current ending." And as a result, you want to drive people away and replace them with a single word? Do you really have what it takes? ”
When Empress Wei heard this, she immediately sneered a few times. "Why didn't I see it before, little sister, you have such a good relationship with Ning Guogong? Something just happened, and you were so eager to stand up for them, and you couldn't even care about your own relatives...... But if you think about it carefully, Ning Guogong does look talented, but his face is a little colder. But with his attitude towards Duchess Ning Guo, he must be very enthusiastic in private. This is a huge contrast between before and after, and it can bring a lot of excitement to people. ”
Empress Wei is ironically ironing her for having an affair with Du Junqing.
Princess Taiping's face instantly became gloomy. "I have never shied away from anyone in private with officials in the DPRK and China, and I am upright and above board. It has been so before, and it will be so in the future. It's a pity that although Ning Guogong is handsome and elegant, his character is too dignified, I don't like it, and I have never interacted with him in private. What I like is the Duchess of Ningguo, and I have always admitted this personally, you can go to someone and ask. But if I have any trouble with Ning Guogong, then let me be thundered by the sky, and I will not die well! ”
"And you ......" Speaking of this, her cold gaze turned to Empress Wei again, "Sister-in-law, can you also swear that you have not interacted with other men in private, otherwise you will also thunder and thunder, and you will not die well?" ”
Empress Wei's heart trembled suddenly, and the person also shivered fiercely.
"Hehehe, Taiping, sister-in-law is joking with you, why did you suddenly turn your face? You're scaring me to death! She hurriedly raised a smile and said.
Princess Taiping snorted coldly. "Sister-in-law, I don't know if you're joking, but I know it clearly-Ning Guogong and they won't rebel! The two of them have never been on the mind of making achievements, if it weren't for the inexplicable extra iron mine under their subordinates, they would have gone away long ago. And you don't know the identity of the Duchess of Ningguo, she is the descendant of the high divine doctor. All the men of the martial arts family were killed and brought back to life by her, and the reason has not been found so far. If she really wants to take revenge on you, there is a lot of way to make you live and not die, but did she do it? She didn't! Since this is the case, it is enough to prove that they have no intention of rebelling at all! ”
"Who can say for sure? Maybe they just don't want to for the time being, but who can guarantee the future? Wei Hou said again.
Princess Taiping immediately swept over with two cold eyes. "Anyway, sister-in-law, you just think that they will definitely rebel, so you push everything possible to rebel. And then, you have to take precautions, don't you? ”
Wei Hou fixed the fixed head. "That's nature. Your Majesty has suffered so much, and now he has finally restored the Datang Foundation to its original state. If there is another person to make trouble now, will the people of the whole world still live? How can we be worthy of the ancestors and ancestors under the Nine Springs? ”
Princess Taiping suddenly laughed even louder.
She immediately turned her head to look at the emperor. "Brother, do you really think so too?"
The Emperor's shoulders shrunk. "This, I ......"
Don't talk about Empress Wei like this, Princess Taiping can't stand it.
"That's it!" She shook her head helplessly, "Brother, you are now controlled by your wife and daughter no matter what you do, and you don't have any thoughts of your own at all." In that case, I won't bother to talk to you any more. ”
With that, she suddenly reached into her sleeve and pulled a dagger out of it.
When the emperor and queen saw this, they were suddenly agitated.
Princess An Le quietly raised her head from the emperor's knee to take a look, she also screamed, and hurriedly ran behind the emperor. "Daddy save me!"
Seeing this, Princess Taiping smiled coldly: "Don't worry, I'm not stupid enough to kill you." ”
As she spoke, she had already slashed her fingertips. Immediately, a drop of blood came out of his fingers and fell to the ground.
The emperor was immediately frightened. "Taiping, what are you doing here?"
At the same time, he shouted to the left and right: "Quick, pass on the imperial doctor!" ”
After Princess Taiping finished cutting a knife, she just looked at him with a smile: "Brother, they all say that their parents don't dare to destroy their bodies." But our parents, you know, Daddy went early, and several of our brothers and sisters died at the hands of Grandma. Now the only ones who are alive are you, me and my starling. I originally thought that we would be the closest people in the world in the future, and you as a brother would definitely take care of me more, but I found that I was wrong. In your heart, it is clear that your sister-in-law is much more important, and even anything your sister-in-law says will be taken as a guideline by you. As for me......"
She smiled bleakly again, and the desolation and helplessness in her eyes deeply pierced the emperor's heart.
"Taiping, it's not like this!" He hurriedly whispered.
But Princess Taiping shook her head, didn't give him a chance to speak, and continued: "It's just that Duchess Ning Guo is my best friend, this time she was so slandered by her sister-in-law, I must protect her to the end!" Since you would rather believe her than me, brother, then I can only swear by blood and guarantee my own life, they will definitely not rebel! ”
As she spoke, she was about to make a second cut.
Where can the emperor bear it?
He had already been wept bitterly by Princess Taiping's words. Now that the knife in Princess Taiping's hand had just been raised, he ran over and grabbed her hand holding the knife. "Sister, Brother is wrong, Brother Ning Guogong is also wrong. That's it! I'm not going to pursue it! ”
"Your Majesty!"
"Daddy!"
When Empress Wei and Princess An Le heard this, they both shouted.
When Princess Taiping heard this, she smiled lightly. "Brother, I advise you to let me go! Don't you see that my sister-in-law and An Le are very unhappy? Since they are your dearest people, you should listen to them more! I'm just a married daughter spilling water, and opinions don't matter. ”
"Sister, what are you talking about? You are very important, you are the most important to Brother! This matter is so decided, Ning Guogong is not guilty, and the iron mine in Yongxing County will continue to be handed over to him for management, that's all! The Emperor shouted in a hurry.
Princess Taiping raised her head at this time. "Brother, are you serious?"
"I am the emperor, where can Chrysostom be false?" The emperor immediately bowed his head.
"Now you will draw up your will. Otherwise, I'm worried that if my sister-in-law and An Le pounce again, you will change your mind. Princess Taiping immediately changed her weak tone and began to be aggressive.
The Emperor was forced to shrink again. "This ...... Good. ”
When Empress Wei and Princess An Le saw this, the eyes of the mother and daughter almost turned into knives, and they stabbed Princess Taiping desperately.
However, Princess Taiping turned around and smiled proudly at them, the brilliant light between the corners of her eyes and eyebrows almost blinded people's eyes, where was Fang Cai's pitiful little appearance?
She was just pretending!
Empress Wei and Princess An Le are almost angry!
They were about to intercept the emperor, but at this time, someone from outside came to report: "Your Majesty, it's not good, the people in the Laiguo Mansion outside are fighting with the people in the Liang Wang's Mansion again!" The people of Hu Guogong's Qin family also joined! ”
Needless to say, the cause of this fight must be Du Junqing again!
After all, now that the Laiguo Mansion is in decline, Du Junqing, the Duke of Ningguo, has risen from the ground, and brought the children and grandchildren of the Du family to Yongxing County, and then carefully cultivated people and sent them to various military. The same is true of the people of the Qin family of Hu Guogong. Up to now, the children and grandchildren of these two families have been shining all over the country, and many of them have been crowned officials in the army!
Therefore, both the Lai Guo Mansion and the Hu Guo Mansion are firm supporters of Du Junqing. In addition, the children of the Qin family of Hu Guogong have all practiced martial arts since childhood, and the weapons in their palms are not weak. Now they are joining forces with the Du family to fight with the martial arts......
The consequences were unimaginable.
As soon as the emperor heard this, he was so worried that his face wrinkled like a chrysanthemum.
"No, this matter must be resolved as soon as possible, and it can't be delayed any longer!"
As he spoke, he quickly wrote the decree, covered it with a jade seal, and then handed it over to someone to take it down and keep it for reading everywhere.
The jade seals are all covered, which means that this matter is already a certainty.
When Empress Wei and Princess An Le saw this, their hearts suddenly sank, and their shoulders collapsed.
When Princess Taiping saw this, she became more and more proud.
"Little sister, thank you brother for your care." She Shi Shiran bowed to the emperor, and then looked back at Princess An Le, "However, although you issued a holy decree to say that Ning Guogong is not guilty in this matter, but just now I also made a request, which is to let An Le go and apologize to Ning Guogong and his wife to admit his mistake!" ”
Princess Anle's face turned white again, and Empress Wei roared. "Taiping, don't go too far!"
Princess Taiping covered her lips and smiled. "Sister-in-law, I'm just joking with you, why are you still serious? It's a shame that you said just now that I can't afford to joke, and you can't afford to joke more than me! ”
Empress Wei's eyes were cold, and Princess Taiping said to the emperor again: "Sister-in-law is right, Anle She is a golden branch and jade leaf, how can she casually bow her head to others and admit her mistakes?" This matter can be avoided. It's just ......"
This is just that the hearts of the three people present are hanging high.
Princess Taiping observed the reaction of the family of three, and after she was addicted, she continued slowly: "Ning Guogong's family has suffered such a great humiliation, not only the little sister, but also many people in the court and the army, who are holding grievances for them. Brother, you just sent a holy decree to the past, which can't appease the people. So Xiaomei suggested, by the way, you send someone to bring a few more carts of rewards, which should be regarded as a comfort for them. ”
"What do you say? They do the work of expelling angels, but in the end we can't settle accounts with them, and we have to send things to appease them? Empress Wei was very displeased.
Princess Taiping nodded with a smile. "Brother, my little sister is doing this for the sake of my Tang Dynasty's health. Of course, you are also looking forward to Ning Guogong's family continuing to develop the mines in Yongxing County, so as to provide more elite weapons for my Datang world, aren't you? ”
"Of course!" The Emperor nodded hurriedly.
Princess Taiping immediately bowed her head. "Therefore, Ning Guogong's family must be appeased. They're not good-natured people! ”
"Yes, yes, I know, thank you for reminding me." The Emperor nodded again and again.
Princess Taiping bowed down: "Since the matter is done, the little sister will retire." Brother, hurry up and appease and be happy! ”
Dropping these words, she Shi Shiran turned to leave, deaf to the crying that suddenly sounded behind her.
But as soon as she walked out of the palace with her front feet, her face sank, and her eyes became cold.
Seeing this, the people around them didn't dare to take a breath, and hurriedly and carefully led her to the palace gate.
At the gate of the palace, Princess Taiping saw an acquaintance again - Li Longji, the king of Linzi.
However, King Linzi didn't notice her, but put all his energy on the little Langjun in front of him.
Princess Taiping remembered that this Xiao Langjun seemed to be the one who got off Princess Anle's car just now? However, she had only glimpsed it before, and she didn't really see it.
Walking over slowly, she heard Li Longji whisper: "Thirteen Lang, are you sure you don't need to go to see the doctor?" You're all hurt like this! ”
"No, a little skin trauma, just take care of it for a few days." Xiao Langjun, who was called Thirteen Lang, replied numbly.
Li Longji was so distressed that he couldn't do it. "It's too much for Anle! How old are you, and you are still her blood relative, but she actually thinks about you like this, and does such things, she is simply ...... Otherwise, come with me! I'll take you out of her hands. Although it was a bit troublesome, I tried my best and it was still feasible. ”
"No need, thank you for your concern." Thirteen Lang still shook his head numbly.
While they were talking, Princess Taiping specially observed this little Langjun, and she suddenly found that this child was indeed good-looking! Although his nose and face were swollen from being beaten, his eyebrows and eyes were still so handsome. Moreover, he is already so seductive at a young age, and when he grows up in the future, it will definitely be a disaster that will captivate the country and the city.
Not to mention Anle, if she met him first, she might be tempted.
Thinking so, she walked slowly. "San Lang."
Li Longji realized that Princess Taiping was here, and he quickly turned around and saluted. "I've seen my aunt."
Princess Taiping waved her hand. "No courtesy. But how did you get into the palace? I remember that the emperor summoned you today. Also, who is this Xiao Langjun? Do you know? ”
"Back to my aunt, my nephew was passing by the palace gate today, and he saw Wu Yanxiu punching and kicking him, and he really couldn't look past it, so he came to the rescue. As for this Xiao Langjun, he is a descendant of King Teng, ranking thirteenth in the clan, and I have always called him Thirteen Lang. Li Longji said busily.
"It turned out to be after King Teng." Princess Taiping nodded, but immediately she reacted again, "So, your surname is also Li?" ”
Thirteen Lang nodded at this time. "Nephew Li Longhuan, I have seen my aunt."
Princess Taiping's eyes narrowed slightly. "It's too much for her! It's all her own family, how can she do it? ”
"Isn't it? And aunt, don't you know, in order to let Thirteen Lang follow him obediently, Anle actually asked her to kill all of Thirteen Lang's family! Li Longji said again.
Princess Taiping breathed for a moment. "Really?"
Li Longji fixed his head.
Princess Taiping immediately took the child's hand. "You come with me! I have to get you justice! ”
But she dragged Xiao Langjun and took two steps, and Xiao Langjun didn't leave.
"I'm not going, I'm not going to be a gun in your hand." He spoke coldly.
Princess Taiping was stunned. "What did you say?"
"My own revenge, I will avenge myself, and I don't need the help of others. Don't expect to use me as a gunman. Xiao Langjun stared straight at her with a pair of black and white eyes, and said word by word.
Obviously, she confronted the emperor's family of three just now, and Princess Taiping did not fall behind. But now, in the face of this little Langjun, who is not as tall as her shoulders, Princess Taiping couldn't help but feel cold, and she quietly took a deep breath.
"Really? In that case, I don't care. Then she let go of her hand and walked away.
Just got into the carriage, she couldn't help but open the window and look back, and saw that Li Longji also shook his head helplessly after persuading this little Langjun a few words, and also turned over and left.
This little Langjun silently moved back to Princess Anle's carriage, and stood there like a log, not moving for a long time.
"Hey, this kid...... fell into the hands of An Le, and his whole life was ruined. Princess Taiping shook her head and put the matter behind her.
However, Princess Taiping entered the palace to make trouble this time, and she was very successful.
As she wished, the emperor said that he would not hold Du Junqing accountable, and returned the management of the iron mine in Yongxing County to him. Not only that, the emperor also ordered people to prepare ten carts of rich gifts to be sent to Yongxing County as a comfort to Du Junqing. As for the content of the holy decree that Princess An Le quietly asked someone to send before, the little lady and Xiao Langjun were named county lords and marquises, these are still counted.
It's just that after appeasing them with such a big effort, the emperor immediately redoubled his appeasement of Princess Anle and allowed her to build a large number of buildings in Chang'an and sell her official title at will...... And so on, so that Princess Anle was happy.
For the emperor's bottomless connivance, Du Junqing just sneered now, and didn't even want to say more.
However, long before the emperor's decree and the last time it was sent, Princess Taiping's letter had already arrived. This letter was naturally addressed to Gu Caiwei.
After Gu Caiwei took it in her hand and looked at it, she couldn't help but sigh again.
The princess said she regretted it. knew that the saint couldn't support the wall with such mud, she should have directly asked the empress to pass the throne to King Xiang. This time, she fell out with Empress Wei and the others, and she had to keep her head in obscurity next, so she couldn't mess around. ”
After a pause, she couldn't help but sigh again: "In order to keep us, she has paid too much this time for the princess." ”
"Indeed, Princess, she truly regards you as a friend." Du Jun cleared his head.
Gu Caiwei pursed her lips. "So now, we have to protect the land here. She managed to save us, and we can't let her down anyway! ”
"That's for sure." Du Junqing nodded, and then he sighed again, "But in this way, our plan to travel the world has failed." ”
Isn't it?
Although the iron mine is now operating well, Du Yi is still too small after all, and it is unlikely that he will pick everything up on his shoulders. Now that the emperor has spoken, Princess Anle's actions will be a little restrained, but she will definitely not give up. So they can't make the slightest mistake, and once they do, Princess Anle will definitely make a comeback.
So now, Du Junqing must continue to stay and dominate everything in the iron mine, until Du Yi is given the position of the church.
Gu Caiwei pursed her lips. "You owe me again, you can remember it for me! When the dust settles, you'll have to compensate me doubly! ”
"Okay." Du Junqing immediately nodded.
At this time, when they heard that Zhang Cambodia continued to be squeezed out by Wu Sansi and his party, and was even demoted to Xinzhou Sima, the old man who was already old and healthy was killed alive like this!
Then, just after the military envoys sent by the military in various places made a big fuss in the military department and the melee in Chang'an City, the crown prince Li Chongjun, who was squeezed out by Wu Sansi, Princess Anle and others, finally couldn't bear it anymore, and directly led the troops to rebel, killing Wu Sansi, Wu Chongxun father and son, and continued to lead people into the palace, wanting to destroy Princess Anle Empress Wei and others. However, the success failed, and in the end, Li Chongjun was betrayed and his head was different.
And Princess An Le was not sad after Wu Chongxun's death, and soon made a double match with her concubine Wu Yanxiu. Then, the emperor also pushed the boat to marry the man and woman, and Princess Anle married Wu Yanxiu in a beautiful way. Then the newlyweds continued to be extravagant, bullying men and women and doing all kinds of evil.
has already experienced many things before, and when these news came later, Du Junqing was already numb.
"It's good that Zhang Xiangye actually went. Otherwise, if he continued to live and saw the good Tang Dynasty being trampled like this by these people, he would be even more distressed and have a worse life. He only said indifferently to Gu Caiwei, "Even, I'm even more glad that Elder Di Ge left early and didn't encounter these things." ”
"Indeed, Diaon is fortunate to die of old age, which can be regarded as God's mercy on him." Gu Caiwei bowed.
Now the mentality of the two people has already become extremely stable. Right now, they are only stationed in Yongxing County, eating and drinking together as a family, Du Junqing tried his best to teach Du Yi all the relevant matters of iron ore, but after Du Yi mastered everything, he didn't care about anything!
"I've reached the same height as my ancestors anyway, and when I die, I can go and meet my ancestors generously. As for taking the reputation of the Du family to a higher level or something, I will leave this to Ah Yi, and I will not compete with my children and grandchildren for merit. Now, Du Junqing completely saw it, "When that time comes, I can really let go of everything and fly away with you!" ”
Gu Caiwei heard these words in her ears, and there were no waves in her heart.
"It's not that far, so don't talk too much. After all, who knows what's going to happen in the middle of this? She said angrily.
Du Junqing looked at her speechlessly. "Can't you forget the benefits and think about it?"
"I thought, how many emergencies have been there since the beginning? I was so scared that I didn't dare to think about it anymore. Gu Caiwei spread her hands helplessly, "Right now, I just hope that our family will continue to be together and be harmonious, and the child in Ah Yi's daughter-in-law's womb can be born safely, I will thank God!" ”
Three months after Du Yi got married, his daughter-in-law had already spread the good news.
So, in addition to taking care of the family, Gu Caiwei also has one more responsibility - taking care of pregnant women!
It's a pity that she obviously thinks that she is still a young lady, and she has not had time to adapt to the identity of her aunt, and she is already about to start planning for being a grandmother!
Therefore, while complaining in her heart, she still took care of the Yan family properly with her hands and feet.
With her, a miracle doctor, by her side, Yan ate every meal well, and the morning sickness period passed smoothly. And in the late stage of pregnancy, she didn't gain much weight, but her belly got bigger and bigger.
Soon, when the melons were ripe, Gu Caiwei personally accompanied Yan into the delivery room.
Yan is behind the gate, and his physical fitness is excellent. In addition, during pregnancy, Gu Caiwei also kept urging her to exercise more and not lie down all day long, especially to help her practice the strength of her legs, so Yan gave birth to the child in less than one night after the seizure.
"It's a little Langjun!"
The first to take the child from Wen Po's hand, seeing the little doll's trembling bird, Gu Caiwei smiled and squinted.
Du Yi has also been guarding in the delivery room. It's just that he doesn't know how to heal, so he just stands at the head of the bed and stands stupidly.
Now that he heard the child's cry and Gu Caiwei's call, he woke up like a dream and immediately jumped up with joy. "Great, I have a son!"
Gu Caiwei stuffed the swaddling clothes into his hand with her backhand. "Yes, you have a son, and now you are also a father. So in the future, you have to be more mature and steady, and take on the responsibility of this family, do you know? ”
"Got it!" Du Yi nodded hurriedly, he carefully hugged the swaddling clothes, stared at it stupidly for a while, and then sat at the head of the bed with the child, "Lady, look, this is our son!" ”
Gan is still very weak. However, when she saw the swaddling clothes being sent to her, she still smiled slightly, and reluctantly raised her hand to touch the child's little face.
Seeing this, Gu Caiwei immediately quietly retreated, and began to ask the kitchen to bring brown sugar water to Yan's family.
When the news of Tian Ding at home spread, Du Junqing and the little lady Xiao Langjun outside were also very happy. If Gu Caiwei hadn't stopped them, they really couldn't have rushed in and looked around the little doll.
"Don't worry, the child is still too young to stand being surrounded by so many people. Your sister-in-law is also weak, and she needs to recuperate in peace. For now, let them have a good rest, and you will have the opportunity to see the children in two days! Gu Caiwei said.
"Oh, well!" The little lady and Xiao Langjun nodded in frustration.
Du Junqing was also so excited at this time that his hands were trembling slightly.
"No, I have to go and put a stick of incense on my sister and tell her the good news!"
He whispered and hurried away.
In the evening, Gu Caiwei came back exhausted and found that Du Junqing was still too excited.
He took Gu Caiwei's hand, and couldn't help but babble to her: "I'm very happy, really happy!" I found out that I really regarded Ah Yi as my own son, so now I am as happy as if I had added a grandson! Coupled with my sister's joy, I really ...... I don't know what to do anymore! ”
Gu Caiwei can understand his mood very well.
It's just that Gu Caiwei still has to warn him. "It's enough for you to be excited, but don't scare the children. Besides, this is just the first child, Ah Yi and his daughter-in-law are still young, they will definitely have several more in the future, and it will be too late for you to be slowly excited. ”
Du Junqing could hear that she was mocking him. But he didn't get angry, but hugged her. "What to do? I suddenly want you to give me another one! ”
"Roll the edge!" As soon as Gu Caiwei heard this, she kicked Du Junqing away.
Du Junqing smiled naughtily, and hurriedly came over cheekily to hug her and not let go.
Gu Caiwei struggled a few times, and simply followed his wishes, and fell asleep in his arms like this.
Before you know it, the night passes.
In the early morning of the next day, before the sun jumped out of the horizon, suddenly a terrible scream came from the Guogong Mansion-
"Oh no, Xiao Langjun is gone!"
