Text Chapter 40 The Autumn Queen's Question
"Your Highness...... Actually, today is a little private matter for me, and I think it's better not to disturb the emperor. Liu Chunyan walked up to the emperor's eldest son and whispered.
"Miss Lu, what do you mean by this, we are all here, and my father is in the imperial study." The eldest son of the emperor looked confused and didn't know what was going on.
"Your Royal Highness, the little girl was a little angry before, but in fact, there was nothing serious, and after thinking about it again, I still felt that there was no need to alarm the saint, the emperor had all the opportunities, and he was already very tired, how could the little girl harass the saint again." Liu Chunyan explained.
"But ......"
"The little girl is here to thank His Royal Highness the prince for helping the people so much, let's go back." Liu Chunyan pleaded again and again, and the eldest son of the emperor saw that Liu Chunyan was so resolute that he could not insist anymore.
So Liu Chunyan went back with the eldest son of the emperor, Lu Siguan instructed the two junior disciples to protect Liu Chunyan along the way, and he went to the area around the imperial study alone to clear the killers and explosives in ambush.
After hearing that Liu Chunyan did not go to the imperial study to sue the emperor, the nine thousand years old also gave up the plan to murder the emperor.
If it weren't for being too urgent, Jiu Qian's life would not really be serious, after all, there was a Lu Siguan by the emperor's side, and after the last encounter, Jiu Qian's years old were already a little afraid of Lu Siguan's skills, and he didn't dare to act rashly.
Liu Chunyan felt very uncomfortable when she returned to the Lu Mansion, what she didn't expect was that as Lu Siguan said, the emperor seemed to be controlled by nine thousand years old, at least the emperor's situation was not safe.
……
The next morning, the emperor called on the ministers to discuss the matter of Lord Du's treason with the enemy.
"Antong enemy country, behead!" Lord Wei first said carefully.
"Doesn't anyone want to talk about it yet? Emperor, tell me what you think? The emperor looked at the emperor's eldest son, Baili Yunlang, and said.
"Erchen thinks that the matter is serious, and he should collect conclusive evidence, and then hand it over to Dali Temple, so it is the most appropriate to deal with it." Baili Yunlang has some opinions in his heart about the fact that many ministers of the Japanese court and the central government have been said to have collaborated with the enemy and committed treason.
For the eldest son of the emperor, especially Lord Liu's collaboration with the enemy and betrayal of the country, he must not believe it, but he had no choice but to behead the Liu family for treason.
"The minister thought that the old ministers of the three dynasties of Lord Du, who had received the grace of the emperor, had done such a humiliating thing about the lintel, and he must not be spared, and he should be beheaded to show the public to set an example." Nine thousand years old whispered in front of the emperor.
"Lord Qin, don't you want to say something?" The emperor looked at Qin Muyu and said.
"The minister is not in Beijing recently, and he doesn't know that such a major event has happened in the court, and the minister doesn't know what it is, so it is inconvenient to comment, but he listens to the emperor's disposal." Qin Muyu said bluntly, he didn't have the slightest intention of interceding for Lord Du.
"What a righteous annihilation, even my father-in-law doesn't dare to have the slightest private message, this is the loyal and good general of my Heavenly Empire." The emperor praised loudly.
"I think what the nine thousand years old said is very reasonable, there can be no appeasement in the slightest if I collaborate with the enemy and betray the country, I would rather kill 10,000 by mistake than let go of a single person." The emperor said loudly.
"Spread my will, put Du Anbang in prison, and ask for beheading after the autumn, this time I just sent Du Anbang alone, and left the Du family with a life for the sake of the ancestors of the Du family, and retired from the dynasty." After speaking, the emperor got up and left.
While supporting the emperor, Jiu Qiansui glanced at Lu Siguan coldly with the afterglow of his eyes, and that look seemed to tell him something.
Is it a threat, or a warning, warning Lu Siguan not to harm his own affairs in the future and stop meddling in his affairs.
……
In the early dynasty, Lu Guozheng did not say a word, he chose to be a centrist, no matter what the final result was, it would not be harmful to himself.
As for the Khitan prince's promise to Du Yuyan to help Lord Du intercede in the court, it was just his words.
In Yeluqi's heart, the future of the Khitan Dynasty is the most important, and he thinks that he will enter the Central Plains in the future, so he can't watch Lord Du's power grow further.
Yeluqi had asked to join forces with Lord Du more than once, but the ancestral training of the Du family could not cooperate with the enemy, although Lord Du was collecting money everywhere on weekdays to form a party for personal gain, but he was also very obedient to the ancestral training of the family.
Therefore, he offended Yeluqi, he has always wanted to pull out this nail, and now he can join forces with Jiuqiantose to eradicate Lord Du, why not.
It's just that Du Yuyan is still stupidly waiting at home for the news of her father's pardon, but when she waits, she will be beheaded by the autumn queen.
Du Yuyan had infinite remorse in her heart, hated Qin Muyu, hated Yeluqi, but she had no other way.
……
Lu Siguan didn't say much in the court, in fact, in private, he had already begged the emperor to investigate and investigate the truth of the matter, but in the end, the emperor did not listen to his advice.
In the end, Jiu Qiansui still won, and the emperor finally listened to his advice and beheaded Lord Du.
Nine thousand years old taught Lu Siguan a lesson through the matter of Lord Du, and in Lu Siguan's eyes, nine thousand years old was a bit of a chicken and monkey.
"Even an elder of the Three Dynasties like Lord Du can send him to the Dharma Field, not to mention that you are a little Lu Siguan." These words seemed to be nine thousand years old in Lu Siguan's ear.
It's just that Lu Siguan knows that Master Du is not a rooster who shows off his might, and he is definitely not a simple monkey all the time, even if it is a monkey, it is also Sun Wukong.
All things turned out to be as nine thousand years old had hoped, and when he was complacent, he didn't know that danger was coming.
……
Du Yuyan washed her face with tears all day long at home, and she didn't know how long she cried, but in the end, she even cried dry.
In the end, I thought that Yeluqi had promised him everything a long time ago, but in the end, it was ......
Du Yuyan didn't know that Yeluqi had not appeared at all this morning, so how could she plead with her father.
She hurried to the inn, rushed into Yeluqi's room, and pushed the teapot on the table to the ground, which shattered and scattered all over the floor.
"Yeluqi, didn't you say you wanted to help me, but my father still wants to be beheaded after the autumn!" Du Yuyan looked at the Khitan prince and scolded loudly.
Yeluqi slowly got up from the chair and walked in front of Du Yuyan, "My little beauty, look at how haggard you are crying, this is not just about asking for beheading after the autumn, it's not that you haven't cut off your head yet, don't worry, I will have a way." ”
"You let me go." Du Yuyan struggled to break free from Yeluqi's arms, and roared, "The emperor should have opened the golden mouth and issued a holy decree, is there still a saying that the holy decree will be withdrawn." ”
"You liar, you don't die well." Du Yuyan scolded, unable to suppress the grief in her heart.
"Who am I-the Khitan prince, the future emperor of the Khitan country, now the Khitan soldiers are strong and strong, if you want to save a small court official, will you have any difficulty?" Yeluqi said with a smile.
"What do you mean by that?" When Du Yuyan heard this, she seemed to feel that her father's affairs had taken a turn for the better, but she didn't know that Yeluqi had been playing with herself.
"Little lady, don't be too sad, it's not good to hurt your body, how can you enjoy that boundless fun with the little lady in the future?" The Khitan prince held Du Yuyan in his arms, and the tip of his nose kept wandering over her, from her hair to her neck to her back, and around her waist......
"My little lady, I haven't seen you for a day, and this king is a little out of breath when he thinks about you." Slowly, the two became entangled again.
Master Du's matter has not been resolved, but Du Yuyan and Yeluqi are getting closer and closer.
The day of the Queen Mother's birthday is getting closer and closer......
There was jubilation in the palace.
Festive red lanterns have been replaced outside the palaces, especially outside the Cining Palace, where many fathers-in-law are in front of the door and give instructions.
It was already completely dark, but there were still many palace maids standing at the door, looking at the sky, imagining the grand scene of tomorrow.
One of the palace maids smiled and said, "We don't have a chance to enter the birthday banquet...... Only those aunts with status can go to ......"
Her eyes were full of envy.
"Yes, I heard that the hall where the birthday banquet is held is more than ten times the size of our place, and it is surrounded by high-quality silk and satin tables, drinking wine with gold utensils, and serving plates, which is not spectacular!"
Obviously, they had heard of it, but they hadn't been there, and they didn't know what was going on inside.
The mama who took the lead came over, heard these gossips, and frowned: "Don't think about it, I'll go back to sleep, I'll be busy tomorrow!" ”
Several palace maids had already fallen asleep, but the emperor was still reading the recitals in the study, one by one.
Several concubines who don't attract the emperor's love on weekdays wanted to go in, but they were all blocked back by their father-in-law.
Although they were not happy, they had to obey the order, aggrieved and pitiful, and said: "The father-in-law has to tell the emperor to take care of the dragon body, and the concubine will retire first." ”
The emperor was tired of seeing it, so he put one hand on the table and rubbed his temples to feel better.
The father-in-law walked in, went to the emperor's back, stretched out his hand and gently pressed the temples on both sides of him, and asked softly, "Can the emperor go to Cining Palace today?" ”
"If you don't warn, I will have to forget!" As he spoke, the emperor folded the music in front of him, stood up from the table, and waved his hand: "Don't press it, go and prepare the best Ningshen tea, and I'll bring it to the queen mother!" ”
Saying that, the father-in-law asked people to prepare, and sent it to Cining Palace first, and the emperor went over later.
The emperor walked along the way, the lights were bright, and although few people came and went, he felt a warmth in his heart.
"The hallway is so well lit, and tomorrow will be the same as it is today!" As he spoke, he opened the folding fan and flapped it lightly: "The queen mother will definitely like it." ”
Walk through the nine-curved corridor and stop in front of the gate of Cining Palace.
When the palace maid at the door saw the emperor, she immediately prepared to kneel down to say goodbye, but the emperor whispered: "No, no need to report." ”
The palace maid spoke: "Thank you, Lord Longen." ”
Then open the door and let the emperor in.
Walking into the hall, I saw that the Queen Mother was still sitting on the wooden chair in front of the hall, looking carefully at the special pattern, and her face was very kind.
Thinking about it, he hadn't seen the queen mother so happy for a long time, and said: "The queen mother." ”
Hearing this, the Queen Mother raised her head, looked at the emperor, and smiled slightly: "Why did the emperor come here at this hour?" ”
