Chapter 258: The Emperor Learns
Li Guogong looked at Li Duan's face and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
After Li Duan finished speaking, he just looked at Ah Gong quietly, as if waiting for another reply.
It wasn't until a gust of night wind blew and blew the gray hair on Li Guogong's sideburns that he heard Li Guogong sigh slowly and long.
"Silly boy."
Amber waited in the tent for a long time, and finally saw Li Duan return.
"General, ······ you" Amber saw that Li Duan smelled of wine, and couldn't help but wonder.
Li Duan smiled at Amber and said, "It's okay, it's Ah Gong who is drunk, I'm sober." ”
Speaking of this, the smile on Li Duan's face suddenly darkened.
Fang just said that he was leaving, but Ah Gong said that he would let him drink the altar wine with him again, so he accompanied Ah Gong to drink two jars.
Seeing that Ah Gong was already drunk, he asked the soldiers to help Ah Gong away, and then dispatched people to make proper arrangements, and then came back.
It is said that the older a person gets, the more childish he becomes, and he looks, so does Ah Gong.
Obviously reluctant to give up on himself, he pretended to be so unconcerned when he said goodbye.
Thinking of this, he sighed.
That's it, let's wait for him to return to Beijing.
Whether he is the grandson of Li Guogong or the child of Princess Yunyang, as far as he is concerned, what he has to do now is to protect his grandfather and aunt.
Ah Gong can't move easily here for the time being, after all, the news of his death has not long reached the emperor's ears.
Even if you want to move, you must take into account the hearts of the people, and you will not rush to seize power when the Li family is so grieving.
But the aunt in the palace is different.
If you want to take the Li family, the first person to move the emperor should be his aunt.
Although there is the queen mother in the palace to protect her, the queen mother can't always be on guard for her aunt, and Yun Concubine's mother and son are so ambitious, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not do anything to their aunt.
At that time, even if the Queen Mother wants to protect it, she may not be able to protect it.
And most importantly, his Guanlan is also in Beijing.
He was going back to see her, and he wanted to see her no matter what the outcome was.
The night is cold in the depths of winter, and the night has passed.
The matter of Lu Jingzhu and Chengye really quickly reached the emperor's ears.
In the Qinzheng Palace, the emperor's hand holding the fold was trembling slightly.
Zhao Quan on the side was terrified.
You don't have to ask to know what the emperor's mood is at the moment.
In fact, as an internal official, he is indeed much better informed in the palace than the emperor, and he has already learned about the three highnesses and the second lady of the Lu family as early as last night, but I don't know if this matter is true or not.
At this time, I heard the emperor grit his teeth and said, "Zhao Quan, have you heard any rumors of His Royal Highness in the past two times?" ”
Zhao Quan immediately bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, you don't understand what you say, Third Highness······ Third Highness, what rumors can he have. ”
The emperor snorted coldly and threw the fold in his hand to the ground, "Okay, what a third prince." ”
Soon after the news of Li Duan's death reached Beijing, it was known to everyone in Beijing, and he wanted to cover it up, but now he couldn't hide it at all.
Speaking of which, Li Mu's incident has always been a knot in his heart, and he is also a little jealous of Li Guogong, but in the end, Li Guogong has been in the border for many years, and he has never set foot in Kyoto, and he is still in peace, so he really has no reason to move him.
Now that the only bloodline of the Li family is gone, if it is the idea of fighting the military power in the hands of Li Guogong at this time, it would be the best.
But the premise is that the world doesn't know what happened to the Li family, and they don't know that Li Duan is dead.
However, the news of Li Duan's death is now known to everyone, and he naturally can't move the Li family at this juncture, and he can't move Li Guogong in the borderland.
Otherwise, if other countries know about this matter, they will naturally take advantage of it.
Compared with the military power in the hands of Li Guogong, Dacheng's stability in the world today is naturally more important.
But he thought carefully about how this matter could be known by chance.
Remembering that I talked about transporting grain and grass before, it was Naruno's idea.
This Cheng Ye, who has always stood behind Cheng Hao, has his own idea when he can cross Cheng Hao.
Or is it that he has never really attached himself to Cheng Hao, after all, over the years, Yun Concubine has never dispelled that idea.
When he thought of this, he also sent someone to investigate carefully, and found that Narino had a close relationship with the envoy of Na Xixun.
In this way, he thought that it seemed that his third prince also had plans to compete for the crown prince, and he had already begun to plan.
So when Li Duan's death spread all over Beijing, he guessed that this incident should be done by his third prince.
Because at this time, it is difficult for him to take back the military power, so he can only be replaced by others.
And this successor is Chengye, who is played by hundreds of officials.
On the day that Cheng Ye took over Li Quan's military power in Beijing, he really didn't expect that there would be so many people in the DPRK to support Cheng Ye.
Look at Cheng Mo again, Concubine Xian and Cheng Mo's mother and son have never cared much about political affairs, and Cheng Mo rarely participates in political affairs.
When the military power was replaced, Rao was stopped by Chengmo, but he couldn't resist the advice of hundreds of officials.
In the end, it is not as popular as Chengye.
"Your Majesty, don't be angry," Zhao Quan hurriedly handed over the teacup.
The Emperor did not take it, but said, "Did I mistake him in the past?" ”
The "he" in the emperor's mouth is naturally the third prince who makes him angry.
Zhao Quan didn't dare to answer, but buried his head lower with the teacup in both hands.
"You say, when did Yun Concubine change?" The Emperor muttered, as if talking to himself.
Zhao Quan was still silent, only thinking, look at this, Your Majesty is going to recall the past again.
"I remember that I was blind for a short time, and although I couldn't see her clearly, I did remember that she was gentle and a very kind and unscrupulous woman. When I was young, I lied to her that I was a village man who was hunting in the mountains, and asked her if she would like to follow me, but she just smiled softly. I remember that her laughter was so gentle. But why, why did everything change then? When was Yun Concubine consumed by the lust for power, can power really make a person become another person from the inside out? ”
Zhao Quan was more surprised this time.
Although he had heard the story of Concubine Yun and His Majesty no less than a dozen times, he had never heard His Majesty say so.
I have never heard His Majesty complain about Concubine Yun like this.
"Your Majesty, don't be sad, this ······ It's unpredictable," Zhao Quan could only say.
The emperor sighed and shook his head, "I thought that by taking her back to the palace, I would give her the best life and let her live a good life of supreme glory. ”
Regarding this matter, although Zhao Quan didn't dare to say much, he also felt that the emperor's words really wished the three princes.
The third prince, who has not been liked by the emperor since he was a child, has never been close to the emperor, and where does the father-son relationship come from.
"You should know about this," the emperor turned his gaze to the fold that had just been thrown on the ground.
Zhao Quan swallowed his saliva and had to tell the truth, "The slave only heard about it yesterday." ”
The emperor's face was straight, "Do you think, as a father, what should I do?" ”
Zhao Quan coughed lightly, "This ······ Your Majesty is up to you, minions······ Minions don't understand ······"
The emperor was silent for a moment and said: "On this excerpt, it is not only the Third Highness who admonishes you, but also Lu Bingyan. ”
Zhao Quan was stunned.
So look at what His Majesty means, that is, he will not move the Third Highness for the time being, but ······ The Ministry of Rites is still in the book?
Sure enough, I listened to the emperor: "Since you can't discipline your daughter well, then no matter what the consequences, you will have to bear it yourself." ”
Zhao Quan bowed slightly, "Your Majesty Shengming." ”
But in his heart.
This second lady of the Lu family is only a concubine at most, if it weren't for the willingness of the Third Highness, how could she dare to do such a thing.
Now that he doesn't even give a name to the girl's family, he has to punish the Lu family, which is really pitiful.
The most pitiful thing is undoubtedly the rest of the young ladies of the Lu family, who obviously didn't do anything, and their reputation was ruined.
Rao is a lady like Miss Lu, and now that she is connected by her sister, I am afraid that it will be difficult to enter the heavenly family again.
Yunxi Palace.
When Concubine Yun learned about this, her lungs were about to explode.
Hurriedly summoned Yun Li and said, "You hurry up and find the Third Highness, this palace has to ask him what's going on!" ”
Yun Li had also learned of this, and immediately turned her head and ordered people to go out of the palace to find people.
Lu Fu.
Lu Bingyan learned that someone had already admonished him, or he would go to court tomorrow, and he would have to take off his official hat as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.
When he was in a hurry, he heard Steward Zhao report that Lu Guanlan had gone out again.
Lu Bingyan didn't have anything to do with Lu Guanlan now, but at this time, he suddenly remembered that Lu Guanlan still had so many ticket numbers in his hand, and if Lu Guanlan handed it over at this time, so that he could do some dots, it would be useful to think about it.
He knew a few officials in the court who were greedy for money and wine, so maybe he could redeem some.
Thinking like this, Lu Bingyan immediately instructed Steward Zhao to hurry up and find Lu Guanlan back.
Now the most leisurely is Lu Guanlan.
After driving to the front of the private house and stopping, he asked Ah Li to stay in the car, and he entered the house with the first words.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I happened to meet Wen Ruofei who came in from outside the wall.
The two of them looked at each other, and they couldn't help but be stunned.
"Senior brother, you are ······"
Jiang Queshu coughed lightly, "I used to act in secret. ”
Lu Guanlan raised his eyebrows and nodded, "Act in secret." ”
Jiang Queshu saw Lu Guanlan's eyes like this, and said, "It's not the one you think is acting in secret, it's just ······ It's just a secret investigation of some cases for the sake of the capital. ”
Lu Guanlan smiled slightly, "Senior brother went out today, but also to find a wife?" ”
Jiang Queshu dusted off the dust stained on his boots, "Nonsense." ”
"What did you find?" Lu Guanlan continued to ask.
Jiang Queshu raised his eyes, "What?" Do you have a clue? ”
Lu Guanlan said: "No. ”
Jiang Queshu was speechless.
"But there is one thing, I wanted to ask my senior brother two days ago, but I was afraid that the time would not be in time, so I didn't have time to ask."
Jiang Queshu glanced at Chu Yu beside Lu Guanlan, and then looked at Lu Guanlan, "So you want to ask me about things at this time, right?" ”
Lu Guanlan nodded.
"Come in with me," Jiang Queshu glanced at Chu Yu again, and then walked towards the house.
Chu Yu understood the meaning of Jiang Queshu, so he stood honestly outside the door and waited.
