Chapter 540: The New Emperor's Suppression
However, the sensitive child did not stop crying because of Ji Ruhuan's words, and Ji Ruhuan didn't say more, just sat on the edge of the bed and stroked the child's head, hoping to give the child some comfort.
When Qiushuang came over to inform Ruhuan that Uncle Jiuhuang had returned from the court, Ji Ruhuan left the child and returned to his own yard.
Dugu Chiyan, who had just changed into his court clothes, looked at Ji Ruhuan in a depressed mood and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
Ji Ruhuan sighed, "Hey, I just think that the child is too innocent and doesn't understand anything, but he still has to be involved in these messy things." ”
Dugu Chiyan comforted, "I think he is innocent and pitiful, just stay and take care of him more, let's go, let's go to see my father-in-law." ”
After that, the two of them got into the carriage and went to the Zhenguo Mansion.
This time, the emperor died, and General Ji only brought his youngest son Ji Chengmo back to Beijing together, while Ji Chengmu stayed in the Northern Army in Beijing Town.
When he was in the court, General Ji met with Dugu Chi Yan, and I heard that Dugu Chi Yan would come back with Ji Ruhuan for a while, and after returning home, he went to the study to wait for the two.
After returning to Ji's mansion, Ji Ruhuan originally wanted Uncle Jiuhuang to go to see his father first, and he went to his grandmother's side to ask for peace before going over.
I didn't want to get off the carriage as soon as I arrived at the gate of the Zhenguo Mansion, and saw that Li Zhi was already waiting for them at the door.
When he saw the two of them, he clasped his fists and saluted and said, "The general has already followed the two of them in the study, and his subordinates have brought the two of them over." ”
Ji Ruhuan pointed at herself, "Let me go too?"
Li Zhiying said, "Yes, the general asked Miss to go over with your uncle." ”
So the two of them followed Li Zhi directly to the study, and because of the difference in status and status, General Ji also had to stand up and clasp his fists to salute the two, "I've seen King Xian, I've seen Princess Xian." ”
Ji Ruhuan was very reluctant to go over and hold his father, and said, "There are no outsiders here, Dad, you don't have to be like this." ”
General Ji glared at Ji Ruhuan and reprimanded, "If there are no outsiders, you can also remember the rules and etiquette for me, and don't give people a handle." ”
As soon as he came, he was reprimanded by his father, Ji Ruhuan also looked inexplicable, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
Listening to Dugu Chiyan on the side, he replied helplessly, "This morning, we were ginseng." ”
Ji Ruhuan turned his head to look at the Nine Emperor Uncles and pointed to his nose, "Let?"
Dugu Chiyan nodded, and Ji Ruhuan said in disbelief, "Don't we understand the rules and etiquette?"
Can you still make trouble until the morning to join them?
I heard General Ji speak, "I joined you because of other things, but the words on and off the fold are insinuating that you don't understand the rules and etiquette." ”
Finding that this topic was off track, Ji Ruhuan hurriedly said, "No, we seem to have blurred the point, Dad, did you mean that someone from the court had joined us earlier?"
General Ji beckoned to the two, "Sit down and talk." ”
He also sat down, and after the little guy finished serving tea to Ji Ruhuan and them, General Ji waved his hand and asked the little guy who was waiting in the study to go down, Li Zhi also went out of the study, brought the study door for them, and then guarded the door himself.
General Ji then said, "It's about you taking the first queen from the prison." ”
Ji Ruhuan frowned slightly when she heard this, and looked at Dugu Chiyan to the side, "Let's not make a noise about this, right?"
Dugu Chiyan replied helplessly, "The person who was taken away from the prison, and the former queen who participated in the rebellion, even if he is silent, it is impossible to hide it." ”
"So what do you mean by joining us?" Ji Ruhuan continued to ask.
Dugu Chiyan opened his mouth and responded, "Say that we use public favoritism and have no monarch, and let the first queen go privately." ”
Ji Ruhuan's eyes widened, "Let's release the first queen, what are they thinking?"
General Ji sighed, "I want to join you, I can always find a reasonable excuse, you have a very personal relationship with Princess Xinyi, and you insist on saying that you released the first queen for Princess Xinyi, what can you do with them?"
Ji Ruhuan frowned, "I'm just afraid that there are people from the first queen behind this, let's take people out of the prison, they can't contact the first queen, and they don't dare to act rashly, so they made this decision." ”
After speaking, Ji Ruhuan looked at the Nine Emperor Uncle Dugu Chi Yan, and saw the Nine Emperor Uncle nodding in response, "Your analysis is right." ”
General Ji opened his mouth and said, "It is an indisputable fact that you took the people away, if this makes trouble, you will ignore it, or send the people back to the prison for the time being." ”
Hearing her father's words, Ji Ruhuan decisively refused without thinking about it, "No, you must not let her continue to contact people outside." ”
This former queen has been the queen of the Ming Dynasty for many years, and the forces she secretly operates are only not small, even if she is imprisoned in the prison and becomes a prisoner, she can still keep in touch with the outside forces, which is not good news.
If you don't control it and let her contact the outside world, who knows if there will be any more trouble.
However, some things were not up to her, and his father was heard, "I have promised Your Majesty that I will send you back to the prison today." ”
Ji Ruhuan looked at her father and frowned, "Dad, why are you making decisions for us privately?"
Dugu Chiyan on the side pulled Ji Ruhuan, who was a little excited, and said, "The emperor put pressure on his father-in-law, and his father-in-law has nothing to do." ”
Ji Ruhuan sank his face, "So he's going to start unloading and killing donkeys now?"
General Ji obviously didn't know the situation in Kyoto very well, and when he heard Ji Ruhuan's words, he only frowned slightly, and then said, "Tell me, what is the situation?"
Ji Ruhuan told his father about the reminders of the first emperor and the various temptations of the new emperor after he came back from the Great Zhou.
General Ji also frowned when he heard this, if it was just Ji Ruhuan and their own guesses, he might still hesitate, but the emperor personally reminded them, and he had to believe it.
Of course, he also understood why the emperor didn't help the crown prince, because the emperor knew that if there was really a day, it would definitely be the Ming Dynasty who would suffer, and it would probably be the Ming royal family who would be endangered.
The crown prince is still too young, I don't know how important this is to the Ming Dynasty, not to mention that this is still the orthodox royal blood of Western Xia, and he can really hold real power in the regent of Western Xia.
Thinking that the new emperor was so ignorant, General Ji could only sigh in his heart, and at the same time worry about Da Ming, whether he would be buried in the hands of the new emperor.
In the end, General Ji still looked at his son-in-law, and said solemnly, "What are your plans?"
Dugu Chiyan responded, "Let's see what he will do." ”
On the side, Ji Ruhuan said with a heavy face, "Father, if the emperor intends to suppress us, he will definitely not miss the Ji family." ”
