Chapter 150: Counter-Killing 4
Wen Yan raised her head, held back the emotion in the corners of her eyes, and looked at Bai Jinyu, waiting for her to uncover the mystery of the past seven years.
"It's for the big sign." Bai Jinyu said.
Wen Yan's face was expressionless at the moment.
Bai Jinyu smiled flatteringly and asked, "Do you think I'm making things up?" ”
Wen Yan said sincerely: "Since you said so, it must not be made up." ”
Bai Jinyu nodded confidently, and said eloquently: "When I married Feng Chen...... she glanced at Wen Yan and added: "It was when I married Feng Chen instead of Su Lihua, and the current saint had just ascended the throne. Because the first emperor did not set up a prince, the East Palace was suspended for many years, so after the sudden death of the first emperor, several princes of appropriate age coveted the throne, and all of them formed a party and were eager to try. ”
Wen Yan responded: "This matter was later known to the world, and in the end, several cabinet ministers came up with an edict from the emperor to determine the emperor's eldest son, Feng Hua, as the new monarch to succeed him. ”
"Yes," Bai Jinyu said, "but the world only knows one and doesn't know the other." The imperial family and the court had mixed reviews of the edict, and many people were rumored to have drawn up the edict by the cabinet ministers themselves, and the edict was not stamped with the imperial seal of the former emperor at all. ”
Having said this, Wen Yan had already guessed a line and reasoned: "It seems that the fact is that there is indeed no imperial seal on this edict." ”
"Well," Bai Jinyu tilted his head slightly, and said, "At that time, there were several forces that were entangled with the intention of bringing down Feng Hua, and the most powerful one of them was King Ning's forces. ”
Wen Yan frowned lightly and said: "You shouldn't care about this, the Great Zheng Dynasty has been recuperating for more than 100 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the country is recuperating and recuperating, and all walks of life are thriving, and the people have long been able to live and work in peace and contentment. Have you forgotten our Cuizhu's family motto for a while? ”
Bai Jinyu shook his head in a low voice: "I haven't forgotten!" It's just that if it's just a few princes of their Feng family, it doesn't matter if they are fighting internally, it's just ......" Bai Jinyu has been thinking about it so far, gritting his teeth.
"What?"
Bai Jinyu said angrily: "I learned the news of King Ning's collusion with Li Guo by chance. King Ning promised Li Guo that as long as he helped him remove Fenghua from power and assist him in ascending to the emperor's throne, he would cede fourteen northern states to them. ”
Wen Yan took a long breath and looked at Bai Jinyu fixedly, and had already guessed the follow-up at this moment. But he didn't say anything, and listened attentively.
Bai Jinyu said: "As you said, the Great Zheng Dynasty is like a machine that runs on its own, and whoever becomes the emperor has no impact on the lives of the people. So, I thought, why should we displace the people for the sake of a king of Ning, or even become citizens of another country? ”
Wen Yan finally let out a long sigh of relief, and followed her to continue: "So you thought that the beginning of the founding of the Great Zheng Dynasty was also stormy, and it was a family seal of the Wen family in Luzhou that pacified the world, so you did not hesitate to commit a heinous crime, steal the family seal from Cuizhu, and then stamp it on the edict that was passed down in Fenghua?" ”
"Yes!" Bai Jinyu admitted: "The family seal of the Wen clan in Luzhou can make a country stand in chaos, not to mention that it was only an emperor at that time? ”
Wen Yan nodded.
Bai Jinyu suddenly lowered his head and said: "I just didn't expect that this seal was lost by me later, it's really strange...... Fortunately, things have finally turned around after many years, and the last time Fengchen went to Cuizhu and went to the family seal, I also regarded it as a big regret in my life! Hearing the feast, and returning the family seal, I don't expect you to forgive me, I just hope you will be less burdened......"
The whole thing has been completely told at this point, and the puzzle that puzzled Wen Yan for seven years was revealed at this moment.
He hadn't spoken for a long time, and no one but himself could know what he was thinking at the moment.
"Wen Yan?"
After waiting too long, Bai Jinyu couldn't help but shake him gently.
Wen Yan came back to his senses, and there was a trace of grief between his arrogant eyebrows: "No wonder you don't regret it...... Why didn't you tell me earlier for such a reason, and have to bear all this alone? ”
Bai Jinyu said in a daze: "Stealing the family seal is a big crime, and mixing with the royal family is also a big crime in Cuizhu!" If I have sinned beyond forgiveness, why should I drag others down! ”
Others...... Wen Yan picked up the undrunk water and drank it all.
Wen Yan stood up in Bai Jinyu's gaze, and layers of clouds and silk fell with his uprightness.
He slowly walked to the side of the room dedicated to writing calligraphy and painting, and looked at the books, pen, ink, paper, and inkstones in the nearby area. Suddenly, he said, "Are you still reading now?" ”
Bai Jinyu also stood up, limped to the area of the study, and said, "Did Qianxi tell you?" I've actually been living in the month of Duo for the last few years. You can imagine that place, the blue sky grassland, strong horses and fat sheep, if you want to say that there are many places to play, but you have to say that you read books...... First, there are no books with Chinese characters, and second, I patronize and play every day, so where do I want to read books! ”
Wen Yan listened and didn't speak, but Bai Jinyu just felt that he seemed to sigh softly.
His hand casually put on a book, he looked down and smiled lightly: "You actually read these two books?" ”
Bai Jinyu stretched his neck to take a look, the two books under his hand, one was "Female Training" and the other was "Female Commandment", which were the books that her mother Wen Ruolan asked her to bring back when she and Feng Chen returned to Shangshu Mansion to return to Ning a few days ago.
She has been on this desk since she brought these two books back, and she has not turned a page at all.
"Hah, this one." Bai Jinyu smiled miserably and stretched out his hand to snatch it, a person from Cuizhu was really embarrassed to look at such a stereotypical and constrained book.
Wen Yan picked up a copy of "The Female Commandment" and flipped through two pages at random, and in an instant, Bai Jinyu saw that Wen Yan's face was tense, and his eyes turned into two sharp rays.
"You read this kind of book?!" Wen Yan was so shocked and furious, he was so stunned that he wanted to crack!
"Aang, what's wrong?" Bai Jinyu didn't understand why he changed color, took the book and looked at it, and was immediately so frightened that he almost threw it away!
I saw that under the cover of a book with "The Female Commandment" written seriously, the pages were full of overlapping men and women, and their shapes were all kinds of strange and strange!
Bai Jinyu was stunned and almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood. It wasn't until this moment that I understood the true connotation of Wen Ruolan's Japanese gravity to her, "You have to work hard in other aspects, and a man's heart is not something that can only be tied by giving birth to a child", and she told her that "these two books should be studied hard, and all the essence is in them".
"Fengchen just let you read these books?!" Wen Yan asked.
"No, no, no, it's not him, it's not him!"
