Chapter 132: The Past of the Northern Kingdom

Everyone in the courtyard was a little surprised to see Bu Tingyun slowly approaching, Bai Peony silently slipped down from the chair and knelt on the ground, Bu Tong held the baby and crossed Bu Yiyang, who was hanging his head low, and stepped forward to meet him directly.

"What will the uncle of the Bai family plan, since my father already knows now, he doesn't look half surprised, but he has already guessed it?"

Bu Tingyun's eyebrows sank even more, and he looked straight at the white peony on the ground, "I thought that you have always been gentle and respectful, and you can control Yi Yang the most, and it is appropriate to be the housewife in the future, but now you are doing such a ridiculous thing, you are confused." ”

Bai Peony just knelt there without a smile and admitted his mistake, Bu Tingyun sighed,

"Chang'an, instruct the two reliable mothers-in-law to imprison the young lady in the attic of the backyard, and not to contact anyone, and dispose of it after giving birth."

Bu Yiyang followed and knelt down beside Bu Tingyun,

"Father, she is still pregnant with peony, even if she is wrong again, she still begs her father to think of his unborn grandson and open up to ...... peony net."

Bu Tingyun kicked him away again, pointing at him in disappointment,

"You are the most confused! Could it be that in your eyes, only your son is a son, and the life of the son of the Fourth Highness and the emperor and grandson of His Majesty is not valuable? How can such a femme fatale woman stay in the house! Now she has not been abandoned, and that is for the sake of the child in her womb! ”

The mother-in-law came in quickly, Bu Yiyang followed uneasily, Bu Tingyun watched these people disappear from sight with cold eyes, and indifferently swept over the trembling maids on the ground, "This is the family who helped the Bai family to do evil?" ”

Bu Tong looked at the begonia on the ground, knowing that her end would be miserable, but looking at the little baby in his arms, he had to nod, "Yes." ”

Bu Tingyun said coldly, "Someone who came dragged out and killed directly at the gate of the courtyard." ”

Chang'an beckoned the two little guys to drag the crying begonia away, and the sound of a stick hitting the body and the woman's screams of pain suddenly came from outside the door, but half a cup of tea was silent.

Bu Tingyun exhaled deeply, "But you think being a father is too cruel?" ”

Butong shook his head slightly,

"Our family and uncle are friends in the world, but he ignored the friendship between the two families, instigated his sister-in-law, and put his father and the whole family into a situation of disloyalty and unfilial piety.

To this day, Bu Tong still couldn't help but say a good word for Bai Peony, and just wanted to tie her to his family in order to save her life.

Bu Tingyun sighed and sat down on the stone beside him without any image,

"You're a clear child, have you already thought about it?"

Bu Tong sat down next to Bu Tingyun, patting the little baby in his arms for a while,

"The daughter still wants to ask her father, my uncle is afraid that he has a deep relationship with the Liu family back then? If not, now that there are all the powerful and noble, why do these difficult things again. ”

Bu Tingyun heard that the whole person was suddenly a lot more depressed, "Concubine Liu, she was originally our schoolmate, in the school opened by the Liu family back then, she didn't have much intersection with His Majesty now, but had a good relationship with Brother Bai." ”

What kind of bloody plot is this?!

Bu Tong opened his mouth in surprise,

"So Your Majesty's favorite concubine is actually won by snatching love with a sword?"

Bu Tingyun snorted, revealing a little disdain, "If that's the case, I'm afraid I'll look at her a few times, it's a fact that the Liu family clings to the powerful and abandons Big Brother Bai, Your Majesty has never done anything like a monarch occupying a minister's wife, and the Liu family wants to produce a noble queen mother, so they work hard to match, and the Liu family enters the palace by itself, and there are three highnesses in the second year, how favored." ”

Bu Tong looked at the little man in his arms,

"But it's unintentional to fall flowers, and the flowing water is affectionate?"

Bu Tingyun slowly closed his eyes, "Brother Bai is an infatuated person, even if the Liu family entered the palace as a concubine and His Majesty gave a noble daughter to marry him, although there is nothing unusual on the surface, but I know that when the Liu family was overturned, when Brother Bai invited himself to fight against the Shui Kou, where was there any pure minister." ”

Bu Tong nodded and analyzed carefully,

"So now that my uncle has found out something about the Liu family's case, he contacted the three princes who have been away for decades and assisted him in winning the crown prince?"

Bu Tingyun opened his eyes a little sadly, "We never thought that after nearly twenty years, he still wanted to disturb the peace of this side. ”

Butong looked at the people around him,

"Won't my father sit idly by? In order to compete for power and profit and support the prince, the Duke of the North Kingdom actually let his daughter, who had not long been married, do such an extremely shady thing and murder the imperial concubine and grandson. ”

"I'm afraid it's more than that," Tang Xuanlin suddenly appeared, a black cloak that melted into the night, and most of his peerless face was hidden under the hood, only to see him slowly approach and salute,

"I have seen the Lord of the Southern Kingdom, and the subordinates have reported that in addition to the deliberate murder of the royal heirs, the Ministry of War advocates the redivision of military power, which is also led by the young lady of the house, and Lord Xiaobu and the Lord of the Northern Kingdom have met privately several times and agreed, why, the Lord has always understood best, and can naturally think of the reason."

Bu Tingyun didn't care too much about how this person appeared, but said, "Divide the military power, on the surface, it seems that the power in the hands of General Lie and the Duke of Beiguo has been divided into a part to His Royal Highness, but in fact, the Duke of Beiguo has only a lot more military power in their hands, and the only one who has been weakened is only the side of General Lie, he is going to do a monstrous disaster." ”

As he spoke, Bu Tingyun got up and stood up straight, took half a step back in a trance, and bowed to Tang Xuanlin firmly.

"Lord Tang, now that I am afraid that there will be a catastrophe, please save the subjects of Kyoto who are about to become purgatory on earth."

Bu Tong hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out an arm to help him,

"Why is my father like this, although my uncle is helping His Royal Highness to seize power, he doesn't necessarily win it, and the uncle of the Bai family doesn't know how to fight in the court, how can he succeed."

Bu Tingyun stiffened and didn't get up, "I know this righteous brother best, my little son is also confused, but I don't know that the elder can do everything, and now he is bent on fighting for military power, and he has prompted the northwest to send troops, what I am worried about is that as soon as General Lie and the three princes leave, this Kyoto City will fall into his hands, and once the palace is forced, even if the little prince of the fourth highness is unharmed, it will be too late." ”

Seeing this, Tang Xuanlin simply brushed off the hem of his clothes and knelt down, his eyes were firm and calm,

"Lord Nanguo rest assured, Your Majesty will do everything in his power to prevent such a tragedy from happening."

Bu Tingyun just went out step by step, muttering in his mouth,

"Confused, confused, for a woman who is greedy for power, the Bai family doesn't want a hundred years of reputation, it's really confused......"

Seeing Bu Tongyun slowly walking away, Bu Tong looked at the little baby who was about to wake up,

"It's about time to drink milk, just follow me back to the yard."

The nurse took a nap for a while and was in a much better spirit, Chun Tao and the others came back, gathered together to tease the little baby, while letting the nurse breastfeed, for Bu Tong suddenly there was a man in black who was full of murder, except for Chun Tao who recognized Tang Xuanlin at a glance, the other two people turned their heads away, and there was no such person.

In the end, Tang Xuanlin has worked under his hands, and he has the vision to understand the rules.

Bu Tong motioned for Tang Xuanlin to go to the courtyard with him, and only then did he speak when he stood still,

"I'm afraid there's something else I haven't told my father?"

Tang Xuanlin nodded,

"Tong'er is the most intelligent, and Suzaku also found out, I'm afraid that the assassination of Dongshan Xueling, as well as the killer you met on the way back, are inseparable from the Duke of Beiguo."

Bu Tong instantly felt that this was a big joke, his scalp was numb, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly,

"My father treated him like a brother, and the children of the Bu family have always treated him as his own uncle, all respectful and loving, and now I look at it carefully, and he has wanted my life since then."

Tang Xuanlin comforted Bu Tong,

"Things still need to be further investigated, and now Lord Hubu Zuo is doing everything possible to allocate money to send troops, although for some reason, but the army can't go in the past two days, and it may not be impossible to find out the flaws."

Butong nodded,

"Lord Zuo? Isn't it Mu Hequan's father who almost murdered me and my brother's concubine Zuo with a killer? ”

Tang Xuanlin said,

"It is this lord, after the fall of the six princes and the Dongguo Gong, Lord Zuo frequently made overtures with the two step adults and the four highnesses, I thought he wanted to defect, but I didn't expect that now there are still some side thoughts that I can't figure out."

Bu Tong rarely frowned,

"I thought that after Mu Hequan's business, I would be able to live a few days of leisure, but I didn't think that this was not peaceful and came in waves, and it was becoming more and more unbearable."

Tang Xuanlin suddenly smiled,

"Is there anything that Tong'er can't deal with? It's really unusual. ”

Looking at this person's relaxed appearance, Bu Tong was inexplicably relieved, and stretched out his hand to hit him,

"Now I'm in a hurry, and you're still making fun of me here."

"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain," Tang Xuanlin looked at Butong's fried hair, but it was a little cuter than the calmness of strategizing on weekdays.

"When I go and discuss with the Fourth Highness again, and find a way to keep the Third Highness in Kyoto City, then there will be a chance."

Butong sighed,

"That's it, now the connection between them is not yet on the surface, no matter what, it will not implicate the three princes, and this matter needs to be planned carefully."

……

Early the next morning, Bu Tong, who had almost stayed awake all night, settled down the little milk baby on his side and instructed Chun Tao,

"Prepare the car, I'll go to the Six Princes' Mansion."

Mu Hequan's whole mansion was confiscated, only Zuo's because she was pregnant, His Majesty granted her amnesty and allowed her to continue to live in the mansion, raise the emperor's grandson until she reached one year old, and hand her over to the palace for exile.

Chun Tao was puzzled, "Why did Miss go to that place, now that the Six Princes' Mansion is completely gone, why don't you bring a few more little guys?" ”

Butong waved his hand,

"I'm just going to ask a few words, it's inconvenient to have a lot of people, it's better to bring a few dead guards over."

Chun Tao listened and went out to arrange the carriage and horses, and Bu Tong ordered some simple snacks and sat in the carriage with the food box.

Although Lord Hubu Zuo has many children, this youngest daughter is the pearl of the palm, and now that she is suffering from this disaster, even the old father of the family will not ignore it.

The gate of the Six Princes' Mansion was closed, Chun Tao knocked for a long time and did not see anyone to answer the door, so he simply went around the palace, and finally found a corner door at the courtyard wall on one side, stretched out his hand and opened it, it was messy inside, Chun Tao hurriedly protected Bu Tong behind him, raised his head to the empty sky and told out of thin air, "You are carrying some gods, carefully protect Miss." ”

Bu Tong only thought it was funny,

"Rest assured, January they've always been there."

Chun Tao found a path and walked in with Butong, "Lao Fu Teahouse, they are also here, what's the use, it's not that Miss suffered." ”

Bu Tong felt sad for January.

The two of them turned a corner, but found traces of human life, this seemed to be the place where people lived, the small yard was bare, there was not half a grass and trees, just a simple shelf was set up to dry clothes and a few plates of herb-like things.

"Is anyone there?" A few steps forward, Bu Tong saw a simple rough wooden baby recliner, and concluded that it should be here.

"Who are you?" A woman in coarse cloth clothes and tied up her hair haphazardly came out of the house with a wooden stick, her face was full of vigilance and caution, and when she saw Bu Tong turn her face, she immediately knelt on the ground with a "plop" sound, "The county lord's mother ......"

Bu Tong looked at the yellow-skinned woman in front of him, trying to find common ground with the woman with a rich body and a smile on her face, but failed, "But Zuo? ”

The woman bowed her head to the ground, "It's the minion." ”

Bu Tong's heart suddenly softened, if it weren't for her husband's family and mother's family, why would such a weak woman do those sinister things, Bai Peony is like this, isn't this person in front of him, and his attitude is softer,

"Get up and take the baby out for me to see."

Zuo hurriedly agreed, got up and went to the house to pick up a sleeping child, carefully put it in Butong's arms, and said softly,

"The house is too dirty, I'm afraid it will stain the hands of the county lord's mother."

Bu Tong looked at this child who was obviously thinner than a normal toddler, and couldn't help but speak,

"Why is the little world so thin? What about those who serve you? Didn't Your Majesty allow thirty percent of the servants to be sent by you? ”

Zuo's tears fell "in a pour", "Where are there any old servants, this wall is pushed by everyone, and if something happens to His Royal Highness, those people are afraid of being implicated, so they fled with the property of the house overnight, and even destroyed the main house, just to occupy the glazed tiles on the roof, the slaves and children can only live here, and they can't eat, Niangniang, the county lord Niangniang helps." ”

Bu Tong is now the most unbearable for orphans and widows to suffer, and can't help but ask,

"Lord Shangshu doesn't care about you?"

Zuo fell to his knees all of a sudden, "County Lord Niangniang, my father is indeed a loyal minister, before I listened to the assignment of the Sixth Highness, deliberately led the county lord to make an assassination, my father knew that he reprimanded me, and then broke off the father-daughter relationship, and now I, I ......"

Bu Tong listened carefully, but tasted another taste, if Lord Zuo is indeed a loyal and pure minister, then dragging the military salary for a long time is afraid that there is another hidden reason.

Signaling Chun Tao to help her get up, Bu Tong watched the child wake up, stared at himself with big eyes, and then smiled and took out the cloud cake from the food box and handed it to him, the little baby happily hugged and gnawed on, and then smiled at Bu Tong all the time.

"What a good boy," Bu Tong looked around,

"You are implicated, and the suffering is enough to teach you a lesson, so I went back and begged the concubine to be the master, and allowed you to enter the palace with the little prince."

The Zuo family kowtowed again and again, Bu Tong only sighed that he couldn't ask any news here, and simply appeased a few words and left all the money on his body, and planned to go home.

As a result, just as he was about to get into the carriage, a person dressed as a small servant in an unknown mansion suddenly appeared in front of Butong, "I have seen the county lord's mother, and my family wants to invite the county lord to the Laofu teahouse." ”

Bu Tong glanced at him, and Chun Tao took the lead in asking,

"Who is your lord? The lord of my family does not interact with the ministers of the court, so the little brother should go back and answer. ”

The little servant continued to bow his head, "My lord is the head of the household, and I would like to thank the county lord for his help." ”

Bu Tong glanced back at the small door he had just come out of,

"It's hard for your family, in the end, there is no overnight feud between father and son, how can the biological woman ignore it, you go and answer, say I'm here."
