Chapter 251: Crisis

"Maybe this is Your Majesty's purpose, but if you are outspoken about the things of the year, it is too risky, remember that if anyone can question the things of the year, it can only be Your Majesty himself!" Zhao Lingmin's lips paused, "This question needs to be more cautious!" ”

"But the question is, if you tell a lie, can the temper of the second child do it?" Zhao Qian smiled and said.

"In fact, with Your Majesty's current attitude towards the eldest grandson's family, it is not impossible to mention the events of the past, you only need to question that the Bai family and the former prince were wronged, and Your Majesty was deceived!" Zhao Ling said, "Your Majesty wants to take advantage of the events of the year to get rid of the eldest grandson's family, and hopes that your reputation will not be affected in any way, so your Majesty must be taken out cleanly, otherwise none of us will be able to get out of the way!" ”

He glanced at Zhao Yan, who was pondering, and said: "Since Your Majesty has entrusted the matter to you, he knows better than anyone else the cause and effect behind this matter, rather than us trying to figure out Your Majesty's mind here, it is better to do the errand now!" There is no doubt that the eldest grandson's family is behind the scenes, as long as the evidence can be obtained, then go down the vine to investigate! ”

"I agree!" Zhao Yan took a deep breath and said, "Even if we figure out our father's mind thoroughly, so what? Do things according to your own conscience, as long as you are worthy of the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty and your father! ”

He thought for a while and said: "Xiao Yu is the only party to the matter back then, the eldest grandson family will definitely find a way to drag her into the water, think of a way, take her out of the capital first, after all, there are some things that are not suitable for her to participate in now!" Two days ago, my father received a piece of music saying that there is a flood in the south of the Yangtze River, you might as well ask for your own life, and by the way, take the little fish out to avoid the limelight! ”

"I'm just afraid I won't be able to leave at this time!" Zhao Ling said, "As for Xiaoyu, if necessary, arrange for her to leave!" ”

Inside the Taoyao Courtyard.

When it comes to collecting news, I don't think there's anyone better at it than Xiaodong.

Although rumors are flying all over the capital these days, what everyone is talking about at this moment, what everyone is talking about, what people are talking about, has appeared on Jiang Xiaoyu's desk.

Although these contents seem a little shocking now, what makes Jiang Xiaoyu feel a little comforted is that it has been ten years, and everyone does not seem to have completely forgotten the events of ten years ago, although some people are being used, but they have not drifted away like a puff of green smoke.

I'm afraid that what she sees now has also entered Emperor Zhou's eyes, how will he feel? Do you regret it or do you feel that everything was right back then?

"Miss, there are people out there who want to see you!" Yan Yan came in and whispered in Jiang Xiaoyu's ear, "It's just that the master sent them all away and didn't let them see!" ”

"I see!" Jiang Xiaoyu nodded lightly and said, "No matter who comes from now on, you just say it's not there!" ”

"Yes, Miss!"

Her interpersonal circle in Beijing has always been narrow, and at this special juncture, even those serious friends will not come to see her at this time, and these people who come to see her in a hurry are only afraid that they are all related to the rumors in Beijing, or have bad intentions, or are bewitched by others.

In the afternoon, news came from the palace first, letting Jiang Xiaoyu enter the palace.

Although Yan Yan didn't know the seriousness of the situation, she just saw that Miss's face was not quite right recently, and she couldn't taste it, and asked in a low voice: "Miss needs a slave maid to inform the prince now!" ”

Jiang Xiaoyu glanced at Yan Yan appreciatively, this girl is getting smarter and smarter, she smiled slightly, and said, "No need, now I won't have an accident!" ”

Jiang Xiaoyu left Yanyan in the mansion, and went to Fengxi Palace with the people from the palace, looking at the palace gate of Sensen, a gust of wind blew, and half of the flowers of a tree fell.

Jiang Xiaoyu stepped on the petals to enter, the Queen Mother sat between half light and half darkness, the shadow just blocked her face, and she couldn't see any of her expressions clearly, but she seemed to be able to feel the murderous aura and coldness coming out of her eyes.

She may be a kind grandmother to Zhao Ling and Zhao Yan, but among the people she cares for, she will not include herself. If it were possible, she would be the first person she would choose to sacrifice, of course, human nature is like this, but there is nothing to blame.

"I've seen the Queen Mother!" Jiang Xiaoyu lowered his eyes and saluted.

"Get up!" The Queen Mother said softly, "Do you know why the mourning family let you enter the palace?" ”

"I don't know!" Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes rolled slightly.

The Queen Mother's face was still half in the shadow and half in the light, her voice barely rose and fell, and she couldn't hear any feelings: "Recently, there have been some rumors in Beijing, I believe you have also heard of it, since the matter involves the Bai family, and you have a great relationship with the Bai family, so the mourning family wants to ask what you think?" Do you think the rumors are true? ”

The bigger these rumors, the more unfavorable it is to the eldest grandson's family and His Majesty, I believe this is what the Queen Mother does not want to see, does she think that the leader behind this matter is herself?

Jiang Xiaoyu pondered for a while and said: "Since the queen mother asked, the minister did not dare to hide it, emotionally speaking, since the minister has some continuous blood ties with the Bai family, then the minister naturally hopes that the rumors in the market are true, the minister's grandfather, the Bai family is not suspected of rebellion, everything is just designed." It's just that the minister believes in His Majesty's judgment, believes that justice is in the hearts of the people, and everything will get the result it deserves, whether it is good or bad, the minister will accept it calmly and be grateful! ”

The corners of the Queen Mother's mouth hooked slightly: "You are really honest enough, if you are asked to deal with this matter, as a descendant of the Bai family, what will you do?" ”

"Now that it's happened, the way to quell the rumors is to find out the truth!" Jiang Xiaoyu gritted his teeth and said, "The minister said that no matter whether the result is good or bad, the minister will accept it calmly, so isn't it the best way to block the mouth of the people by thoroughly ascertaining the case again?" ”

"The truth was already clear back then!" The Queen Mother's tone remained unchanged, but became more and more firm and cold, "There is no need to investigate again now!" You said that you are grateful, and now is the time for you to repay your kindness, and the mourning family thinks about it, and I am afraid that it is more appropriate for you to do this matter! ”

Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes narrowed slightly, and asked, "I don't know what the Queen Mother ordered?" ”

"Since the Bai family deserves it, as a descendant of the Bai family, you should submit a confession!" The Queen Mother said lightly, "Moreover, although Your Majesty has asked the second prince to investigate the source of the rumors in this matter, as a descendant of the Bai family, it is most appropriate for you to be involved in this matter, so you can assist the second prince from the side!" Remember that what the mourning family wants is to be peaceful and quiet, don't make any moths, make it difficult for yourself and the world! ”

Seeing that Jiang Xiaoyu didn't make a sound, she asked coldly, "Could it be that this little request of the mourning family makes you very embarrassed?" Or do you have any opinions and doubts about the events of that year? ”

Jiang Xiaoyu's fists gradually tightened, the queen mother's mind was really sinister, if she really went to the accusation, then it would be equivalent to announcing that the things of the year were ironclad, even if you want to overturn the case in the future, there is no position, and if you cooperate with the second prince, then you must make judgments on the things of the year, find out the people who spread the rumors from a larger level, and then decide that the things of the year are the truth, and this is not only about yourself, but also about the second prince.

"The ministers are sparse and shallow, and I am afraid that I can't do anything to assist the second prince, so the queen mother should appoint someone more powerful!" Jiang Xiaoyu clenched his fists and said, "In addition, since the second prince is still under investigation, it seems a little too early to file a confession now!" And the minister also feels that at this juncture, this move seems to be a little too abrupt, but I am afraid that instead of having the effect of calming down, there will be a rebound! ”

"You mean, you want to disobey the Mourning Family's edict?" The Queen Mother asked coldly.

"Don't dare!" Jiang Xiaoyu knelt down and clenched his fists and said, "The minister is just weighing the pros and cons!" ”

"This is not something you should care about, you just need to do what the mourning family says!" The Queen Mother said coldly, the position of the sun moved slightly, and her cold eyes were completely exposed, "Remember how you survived, if you want to continue to live, you should be obedient!" For disobedient people, the mourners think that there is no need to exist! ”

"Loyal to the Great Zhou, loyal to Your Majesty!" Jiang Xiaoyu clenched his fists and said, "Since the minister's life was survived by the Queen Mother's extrajudicial grace, then if the Queen Mother thinks that the minister does not need to exist, the minister has nothing to say!" ”

"You are determined not to put the mourning family in your eyes!" The Queen Mother's gaze was even colder, "Come on, Lihou is disrespectful to the decree, take it down!" ”

Her own estimation was wrong, she thought that the Queen Mother would not move herself at this time, but now it seems that the Queen Mother has this thought, but now she also sees that His Majesty is going to use herself to move the mind of the Changsun family, so she has to get rid of herself first! It's just that it's Your Majesty who is standing behind her now, and if she really does it, it will inevitably affect the relationship with Your Majesty!

Although the Queen Mother has many disappointments in the eldest grandson's family, it seems that she is still protecting it so far!

I wonder if the queen mother's reaction is also within the calculation of the eldest grandson's family? If His Majesty waits for His Majesty to encroach on the eldest grandson's family step by step, the Queen Mother is afraid that she will not react, and even if she reacts, she will not be able to do more, and if she puts the eldest grandson's family in a dangerous position now, it will inevitably attract the attention of the Queen Mother, and even protect it!

"For the sake of the son, the mourning family will ask you one last time, if you want to do it!" The Queen Mother asked coldly.
