Chapter Ninety-Six: Blood at the Palace Gate (1)
Concubine Chu severely punished the Xu family, and immediately suppressed the arrogance of the Xu family in this mansion. Chu Huotian became more and more reluctant to see her because of this matter.
Suddenly, Xu's courtyard can almost be called a door-to-door door.
Ming Ying once laughed and said: "It is time to let this tigress pull out the teeth in her mouth, and now it can be regarded as a great joy." ”
Ouyang Zhen just laughed when he heard this, but Wan Hui repeatedly warned the people in the garden not to be pampered and arrogant outside, offending other rooms.
Ouyang Zhen looked at Ming Ying's simple and happy face, and sighed to Wan Hui: "How did she know that the water inside is deep and shallow, but this is fine, she should be simpler at her age." ”
Wan Hui said worriedly: "Now that the Xu family has fallen by half, Mrs. has been pushed to a dazzling position, seeing that the limelight is really wrong, it seems to be arranged by others." But I couldn't find a trace. ”
Ouyang Zhen was also speechless when he heard this. The Xu family was self-defeating, Chu Hou was furious, and then Concubine Chu moved the family law, and she, Ouyang Zhen, was regarded by Chu Huotian as the person on the tip of his heart.
Alas...... Ouyang Zhen sighed and said with a wry smile: "Forget it, let's be careful in the future." ”
After that, Ouyang Zhen subconsciously stroked her belly, her flat belly had risen slightly, and her future hope might only be bet on this gradually forming child.
……
Chu Qiande's four years are destined to be an unquiet year, not to mention the major event of conquering Huaguo, that is, the turmoil in the country is turbulent, involving the most sensitive nerves in the brains of every official.
Just when the people of every faction were looking forward to it, Emperor Chu suddenly fell ill, and he looked very sick.
One stone startled a thousand waves, and the entire Chujing was in an uproar.
It can almost be seen that everyone's face is solemn, at this time, Emperor Chu is actually sick, is that a big problem? Is it possible to stage the bloody drama of the six sons of the previous dynasty again?
Chu Huotian listened to the discussions in the court, and swept his eyes to the yellow seat, which was empty, but still so majestic, with intricate carved dragons and gold, inlaid with beads and jade...... But how many people down there are staring at this seat.
He glanced sideways slightly, but saw that Guozhang was still pale, lowered his eyebrows and remained motionless.
Chu Huotian snorted in his heart, this old fox is getting better and better at pretending.
He couldn't bear this chaotic court, so he flicked his sleeves and left. He got out of the court but did not go back to the house first, but went straight to the emperor's bedroom.
Outside the hall, a strong smell of medicine wafted from inside, and Chu Huotian saw that the eunuch Gong'e was not panicked, and his heart settled slightly.
So he begged to see the Holy One.
After a while, an old eunuch bowed down and said, "The Holy Lord's message, the Holy Lord is not in good spirits today, please come back in a few days." ”
Chu Huotian glanced at him a few times when he heard this, and then said: "Then please ask your father-in-law to convey Benhou's concern on your behalf, and I hope that Your Majesty will recover as soon as possible." ”
After saying goodbye, he turned around and left.
As soon as Chu Huotian returned to the mansion, he summoned a few gentlemen.
Zhao Qingling saw Chu Huotian coming back in a hurry, asked about the situation, frowned and said, "Could it be that the queen started to jump over the wall in a hurry?" Several gentlemen looked at each other, surprised, if such a guess, then the queen should force the palace next.
Forcing the palace!?
Several gentlemen gasped, and said that the most poisonous thing was the woman's heart, and if she really took that step, it would not be far from madness.
Chu Huotian knocked on the book case with his index finger, and several gentlemen below discussed in a low voice.
Zhao Qingling listened to the opinions of several gentlemen with his ears sideways, and stepped forward to Chu Huotian and said, "Master Hou, what can you find when you go to see the emperor today?" ”
Chu Huotian retracted his thoughts and sneered: "That eunuch is very raw. In the past, when Gonggong Gao heard that Ben Hou was coming, he came over with a smoke, but now that he has changed to a dazzling old eunuch, it seems that the palace has begun to change. ”
Zhao Qingling nodded: "There are not many of us in the palace. Now it seems that the queen is on the move. What should Hou Ye do next? ”
Chu Huotian tightened his brows, and suddenly asked, "Is Zixuan back?" ”
Zhao Qingling nodded: "He came over two days ago, and he has been on the outskirts of Beijing, but Master Hou wants to pass him on?" ”
Chu Huotian nodded, suddenly shook his head again, and said a little tiredly: "Forget it, let him act according to the plan." ”
Zhao Qingling looked at his complexion carefully, and saw that his handsome face had a gloomy expression, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and the jade belt was slim, but he still couldn't block the layers of gravity, and his shoulders collapsed slightly.
Seeing this, Zhao Qingling fanned the paper folding fan in his hand, the wind blew his sideburns, his face was still smiling like a cloud and the breeze was light, warm and moist like a good jade, the whole person was outstanding, and the jade tree was in the wind.
Chu Huotian lifted his eyelids to see that he was out of the way, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Mr. Zhao is always so relaxed. ”
Zhao Qingling shook the paper fan and smiled faintly: "Zhao is just a person who makes suggestions, of course, it is not as heavy as the person in charge of the Hou Ye." Again...... Besides, Zhao is just an outsider, and he is dedicated to assisting Hou Ye, and he only hopes that my Chu country will be peaceful within the four seas, and the people will live in peace, which is enough for this life. Seeing Hou Ye's face hesitant, he wanted to ask Hou Ye a word......"
Chu Huotian saw that his face was rarely solemn, and he coughed lightly and asked, "What words." ”
Zhao Qingling looked into his eyes and said word by word: "Is Master Hou ready?" ”
Chu Huotian was stunned for a moment, looking at the slaughter in his eyes, as if he could vaguely see the bloody traffic ahead.
Is he ready?
Chu Huotian was stunned on the spot, and finally did not say a word, and was silent.
……
The emperor was seriously ill for a day or two, and he didn't see the ministers, the royal family, or the prince, and the entire harem is now the queen's world, and it was rumored that Concubine Xian was placed under house arrest by the queen in the palace.
The eldest prince went in and out of the palace several times and couldn't see the emperor, and wanted to see his mother, but he saw people going to the palace, and I heard that he went to the temple to pray for the emperor.
The eldest prince had no idea for a while, and those who supported his faction were all Qingliu and the party, except for playing tricks on weekdays, but he was really unbearable, so he ran to the Hou Mansion twice in three days, and at this time he didn't care about whether he would be criticized.
Chu Huotian couldn't say that he was affectionate or cold to this nephew, but Zhao Qingling was the same age as him, and he often comforted him a lot.
