Chapter 296: Interceding for Concubine Su
For Hetai, eradicating the Luo family is the beginning of avenging his mother and concubine, but it is also crucial.
Because with this beginning, it will be easy after that.
Although the emperor and Hetai have different starting points, they have the same goal, and their purpose is to eradicate Luo.
It's just that Hetai naturally won't tell the emperor what he really thinks, and what he said to the emperor is also for the unification of the regime and the eternal stability of the country.
Investigate the pros and cons, the emperor naturally agreed, not into the tiger's den to get the tiger, let him go to the struggle is also experience, in adversity can grow faster, grow stronger!
When he was sent to the battlefield, didn't he be surprised and proud of what he achieved?
Today's Crane Tai is countless stronger than a few years ago, why is he reluctant to let go?
Maybe it's because he's getting older, but he doesn't want to be separated, and the emperor secretly smiled bitterly.
He waved his hand and said to Hetai, "This matter is so decided, if there is nothing else, let's step back first, you can also be prepared, maybe you will set off soon." Rest more before you leave, and recharge your energy. The emperor also said a word of concern.
Hetai thanked him for his farewell, and was about to leave, but he suddenly stopped, and after a while, he said, "Father, my son-in-law has recently heard from a talkative servant that Su Niangniang is seriously ill, should I take a look at the imperial doctor?"
He felt that he should do what he had promised Su Guifei before, so he was so tentative.
And suddenly changing the title of the emperor and changing his name to his father, is trying to treat this matter as a matter of family affairs, otherwise it is really difficult to talk about the harem as a courtier.
Concubine Su is also smart, a little bit thorough, the last time Hetai reminded her of such a sentence before leaving, she quickly understood, and began to pretend to be sick the next day, this matter has spread all over the palace, presumably the emperor has also heard about it.
But the emperor has always been indifferent.
This is also normal, a person who wants to murder the emperor, how can the emperor care if she is sick or not, even if she dies, it is estimated that the emperor will not frown, and maybe he will feel that God has eyes.
But the emperor turned a blind eye, but Hetai had to mention that he couldn't keep pretending to be deaf and dumb or directly reneging on his promise.
Because in his opinion, Su Guifei should still be used in the future, and after defeating the Luo family, if Queen Luo is lucky enough to protect herself, then the matter of dealing with her can be handed over to Su Guifei.
Even if Queen Luo is destroyed with the Luo clan, Concubine Su will not be useless, and Concubine Rou can also be handed over to her to deal with at that time.
There are all kinds of signs that it is unwise to abandon the chess piece of Su Guifei too early, so when he promised Su Guifei, he decided to keep his promise and try his best to help her turn over.
But it happened that Yu Die'er was robbed, so he put this matter behind him, how could he care about these at that time, even if the sky fell, he might not have the heart to look up.
It's been delayed until now, but it's been delayed until a good time.
Because now that he has a plan to deal with the Luo family, the emperor is happy, even if he mentions this thing that will make Long Yan angry, the emperor should not be angry, it's a big deal to scold a few words.
Otherwise, it would take great courage for Concubine Su to make such a mistake and dare to mention her in front of the emperor.
What's more, Hetai wants to say good things for her and plead for her?
I knew with my feet how angry and disgusted the emperor would be for Concubine Su.
Sure enough, the emperor was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes swooped to look at Hetai, "Let the imperial doctor show her?" The emperor's tone was full of anger, his expression was surprised, and then he gritted his teeth, "This poisonous woman died of illness! Also, she was demoted to the concubine position that day, and she has long ceased to be a mother." ”
"Yes, the son's speech was mistaken, and the father was angry. Hetai lowered his head and risked death to speak, "If she violates the emperor's authority, she really deserves to die, and ten thousand deaths cannot atone for her sins." But after all, she is the biological mother of the fourth brother. Even if the fourth brother is wrong, he is young and ignorant. ”
This sentence Hetai said against his will, he didn't want to intercede for Hebi, and he didn't want to say a good word.
Because Hebi once wanted to do wrong to Yu Die'er, he hated it when he thought about it, but in order to alleviate the emperor's dislike for Concubine Su, he could only say a few good words about him.
"Hmph!" the emperor was unhappy, "young and ignorant, he is not much younger than you." Then the hateful, "The two mothers and sons are the same dog, and they both want to murder me! Now they are to blame, and it is grace that I did not sentence them to a thousand knives." ”
The emperor's eyes suddenly froze, "Why did you suddenly mention her, you want to intercede for her?"
"Erchen doesn't dare," Hetai sighed lightly, "It's just that Erchen's mother died early, and when I think of Concubine Su and my mother who were often moving around at that time, I can't help but say more, and my father forgives my sins." ”
He deliberately mentioned his mother Concubine Rong, just wanted to knock on the side, thinking that maybe the emperor remembered the past because of this, and could think of some of the good things of Concubine Su, so he didn't hate it so much, and maybe his heart could soften.
And the emperor seemed to be really touched, his expression was slightly condensed, and he didn't speak for a long time. In the end, he only waved his hand and motioned for Hetai to retreat.
Hetai knew that it was not appropriate to say more at this moment, so he retired.
He couldn't figure out the emperor's thoughts, after all, judging from the situation from Concubine Su's mouth, he couldn't see what kind of mentality the emperor had towards Concubine Rong in the end.
And whether the last words he said worked well or badly on the emperor, he had no way to speculate.
I only know that the emperor looks unhappy, and if he continues to talk about it, he may be burned, so let's stop it first.
But in the end, the emperor did not get angry with him, but looked a little dazed, and maybe things would take a turn for the better.
So for several days after this incident, Hetai was a little apprehensive in his heart, not knowing whether to find another way or wait.
In the end, he decided to wait a little longer, sometimes things must be reversed, too anxious will cause suspicion, there is no need for him to be so anxious for a chess piece.
About half a month later, I occasionally heard the minions talking in private in the palace, only to know that Concubine Su had recently been changed to a different place, although she lived with several talented people, it was still no longer beautiful.
But Hetai knew that this was already a concession made by the emperor.
At least it is equivalent to blowing the wind, and the emperor does not want Concubine Su to die.
The people in the palace are all lively, and when they see this, they naturally won't be ruthless to fix her.
Who knows when Long Yan will change and she will return to Su?
So even if she was immediately cut off from the concubine position, and now she is not even a talented person, and the minions don't have much ugly face to show her, and the position is no longer afraid of anything? Maybe one day she will be promoted again? Don't offend her.
I used to think about her to death, but now the emperor actually ordered her to be replaced from the dilapidated palace that is not as good as the cold palace, who knows what the next step will be?
As a result, Concubine Su's life has inexplicably improved.
She knew that this was Hetai's credit, with his help, she could have a chance to turn over, after this disaster, she also understood that honor and disgrace are instantaneous, and at the same time, she also hated the queen and Concubine Rou in her heart, if it weren't for their black hands, how could she suffer this crime.
When you have the opportunity, you must come back with revenge and let them taste this too!
For Hetai, this is also a good thing, and it is not a waste chess after all.
And at this point, that thing has also made good progress.
The emperor summoned him in the imperial study.
Hetai walked in a hurry, and his heart was even more excited, and he heard that the envoys who had sent envoys to neighboring countries last night had returned to the capital, and the matter was discussed in the early dynasty. So needless to say, he also knew why the emperor summoned him.
As soon as he entered, before he could wait to meet him, the emperor couldn't wait to get to the point, "You know what the court is discussing today, so I won't say more, you hurry up and gather your troops and horses, and after I have decided on the candidate for peace, you can escort you." ”
When Hetai heard this, his heart was excited, "Obey." ”
"Although the neighboring countries agree to cooperate with our plan and are willing to send troops to help, they also have to guard against it, so your task this time is arduous, the opponent is not only the Luo family, but also the neighboring country's soldiers and horses are changing, you must be careful and careful, in case of accidents. The emperor solemnly advised.
"Erchen keep it in mind. ”
"Go, there are not a few days, and in these few days I will announce the election with my relatives. ”
The emperor is anxious, and he can't wait to implement it immediately and eradicate the thorn in his eye immediately, but since it is a plan, he must be real and hide from others.
The envoy just came back yesterday and told him about the cause and effect of this talk, and the final result was to show friendship between the two countries and never stop the war in the future.
After the emperor and the courtiers discussed, they all agreed to this method. So in the early dynasty, the matter of harmony was decided, in fact, these were all planned, the emperor and Hetai naturally knew it, and the envoys were also clear, but the three of them had to perform together to show everyone once.
It is natural to choose with relatives to choose from thousands of choices, because in the future of the relationship between the two countries, if the holy decree is too fast, there will be a suspicion of perfunctory, which will arouse the suspicion of some people with a heart, if it is too slow, it may also be recalled by others, and what is fake is fake, not that there is no possibility of exposure.
Therefore, it is necessary to strike while the iron is hot, and the time must be neither fast nor slow, neither suspicious nor delayed.
Hetai understood the truth, since the emperor summoned him on the same day, indicating that the day of departure must not be long, he did not dare to slack off, so he went to the military department to order soldiers and horses, of course, it was done privately, thanks to the previous emperor gave him the military department.
Now, he suddenly felt that the emperor's intention to give him this part-time job seemed to be premeditated, just in case of emergency.
The emperor really made him feel more and more impenetrable, more and more revealing a kind of unfathomable, as if he had calculated a lot of things in his heart, but he didn't implement it, but after all, he knew the purpose, and he was always acting in that direction.
It's like a lack of opportunity, and once there's an opportunity, everything is revealed.
Anyway, under this series of things, Hetai feels like this.
Even the emperor has been under the constraints of Prince Hui's faction for so many years, and it seems to him that it is more and more like he did it on purpose, but why he did it, Hetai doesn't understand, it's just a feeling of his.
Indeed, soon, after the conversation in the imperial study, only on the fourth day, the emperor announced the selection of his relatives, and of course, the selection of escorts and relatives.
