When Princess Jinyang and her sister Princess Xincheng appeared in Li Shimin's imperial study, Li Shimin was discussing with his eldest grandson Wuji about the war against Tubo and the Western Regions in front of Yutu, and Li Zhi listened intently to the discussion between his father and uncle.

Hearing Zhang Wenyi's request to see him, Li Shimin couldn't help frowning. The eldest grandson Wuji glanced at Li Shimin and did not make a sound. Li Zhi looked at Li Shimin a little eagerly, and then looked at the eldest grandson Wuji, hoping that his uncle could help say a few words.

The eldest grandson Wuji felt Li Zhi's gaze, but he didn't say anything, just turned his head sideways and gave Li Zhi a "don't be impatient" look.

Among the three sons of the brother-in-law, the eldest grandson Wuji is the most optimistic about the current crown prince and the eldest son of the emperor, Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian was brilliant since he was a child and was made the prince early, Li Shimin left Beijing several times and went out by Li Chengqian, during which Li Chengqian's performance was very good, and he was also the favorite son of the eldest grandson. With Li Shimin's character of loving the house and Wu, Li Chengqian's succession to the throne without accidents can be said to be ironclad.

For Li Zhi of Xingjiu, the eldest grandson Wuji does not pay much attention. Judging from the fact that Li Shimin married him a wife, Wen, the righteous daughter of Yiguo, this son is not as valued by Li Shimin as Li Chengqian. At least Li Shimin didn't give him much hope.

Moreover, Li Shimin's love for his second son Li Tai is obvious, and Li Shimin's love for Li Tai is even to the extent of doting.

The youngest Li Zhi has not been treated like the two elder brothers, so the eldest grandson Wuji still has some pity for Li Zhi. Especially after the death of my sister, without my mother's favor, my father didn't manage it much. He cared more about it to make up for Li Zhi's lack of fatherly love.

Regarding Wen's entry into the palace, the eldest grandson Wuji was opposed. Mainly because Zhang Wenyi's background is not very good. Of course, he also saw the forces behind Qin Qiong, but the eldest grandson Wuji didn't think so, he was not interested in the poor people.

However, now someone has attacked Princess Jin three times and twice, which has to attract the attention of the eldest grandson Wuji.

According to the current status of Li Zhi, the king of Jin, the princess of Jin is not a sweet tooth, even if Li Chengqian is stuffed with a side concubine, I am afraid it will be more rewarding than the idea of beating the princess of Jin. Princess Tong'an was held accountable, and her concubine Wang Yu was demoted three levels in a row before Princess Jin was about to enter the palace. At that time, someone wanted to plot that the future princess of Jin would not be able to guard the palace sand, and then the incident of Princess Tong'an happened.

The eldest grandson Wuji was also involved in this matter, but he didn't care about it at the time. Then someone made a big fuss about making it difficult for Princess Jin, and the eldest grandson Wuji laughed after hearing it: I don't know which woman in the harem looks at this little girl unpleasantly.

However, today's events cannot but attract the attention of the eldest grandson Wuji, the husband of the eldest princess of Tong'an is the Taiyuan Wang family, one of the famous nine major lords in the Central Plains.

As a veteran family of gate valves, Wang's influence in the Central Plains and Northwest China is not trivial. In the past, when the Sima family was in charge of the Central Plains Dynasty, there was a pattern of "kings and horses jointly ruling the world".

For the grasp of the direction of the government, these old families have their own set of opinions, and the Wang family is one of the leaders. If they want to deal with Princess Jin, there must be a profound truth in it. No matter what the Wang family's purpose was to embarrass Princess Jin, what he had to do now was of course not to make them so obedient. Only by embodying the value in it can you make a profit from both the left and right.

Li Shimin didn't know the inner activities of the eldest grandson Wuji, and he was very angry at the moment.

At that time, he strongly advocated that the King of Jin marry his wife Wen, mainly to obtain the support of the Hanmen military generals, especially the support of Qin Qiong, the Duke of Yiguo. Because Qin Qiong had the power of the descendants of the Wagang Army back then, this force looked inconspicuous, but it played an extremely important role in the rule of the dynasty.

Now that this force is in his hands, the financial resources to support it will also fall into his hands. Li Shimin didn't want anyone to influence this force, so when Wei Chigong set off for southern Fujian, Li Shimin gave him two tasks: the first task was to get the wealth back, and the second task was to eliminate the Wen family to prevent future troubles.

Since the Wen family is to be removed, Zhang Wenyi, who is the princess of Jin, cannot stay, so when someone targets her this time, Li Shimin deliberately let her go. He also cut Zhang Wenyi's rank and title, just hoping that things would go smoothly.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Wenyi could let Princess Jinyang come to ask for help, so it was difficult for Li Shimin not to agree. What's more, there is also a very smart eldest grandson Wuji sitting on the side, once a lot of flaws are exposed, he can't let him know, and he can guess eight or nine points.

I couldn't help but secretly complain that Wei Guifei was incompetent, she had helped her so much, and she couldn't handle a nine-year-old girl. After appeasing Jin Yang, he said insincerely: "This harem is now in charge of Wei Guifei, and if my father interferes, I am afraid that it will not be very good." Besides, if Princess Jin didn't have this matter, there was no need to panic, Concubine Wei would definitely give her a fair disposition. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji thought about it at this time and said, "Your Majesty is better to see the princess of Jin when he sees it." ”

For this eldest brother, Li Shimin is still quite jealous. He laughed dryly and asked, "Why did you say that?" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji stroked his beard under his chin and said with a smile: "Princess Jin is different from the harem concubines, and she is also the righteous daughter of the Wing Kingdom. Since she proposed to meet His Majesty in person, if she is not allowed, she is afraid that someone will say that Your Majesty is slow to treat the old minister. ”

Li Shimin thought for a while and said, "The auxiliary machine is reasonable. ”

After speaking, he turned around and asked the eunuch who was waiting outside the door to bring Zhang Wenyi over, but before there was a stick of incense, the eunuch hurried back, saying that it was the palace maid from Princess Jinyang's bedroom who came to report that there was a death.

Li Shimin was furious when he heard this, such a trivial matter had caused such a big move. It is a matter of the life and death of Princess Jin, and it was an accident in his daughter's bedroom, and as the emperor, he can't help but ask in person.

At that moment, Li Shimin stood up and said to the eldest grandson Wuji: "You and the pheasant slave take care of your son and Ruoying, and I will come when I go." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji knew that he was inconvenient for him to participate in this kind of palace matter, even if he was an uncle, so he smiled and agreed to take care of the two princesses of Jinyang and Xincheng.

Walking into Princess Jinyang's bedroom, a pungent smell of blood came to my face. Seeing a group of bewildered palace people standing in the courtyard, Li Shimin frowned imperceptibly, and thought: "With such a group of useless stupid women arranged, no wonder you can't handle that little guy." After all, this child has had an unfortunate past, and the stupid woman who has no knowledge in the palace naturally can't help her. ”

Judging from this state, it is definitely not Zhang Wenyi who has an accident, otherwise these people will definitely not be in this abnormal state when they see themselves.

Walking indoors, Rao is Li Shimin has experienced a hundred battles, and he is still shocked by the tragic situation in the room. The blood splattered on the walls and spread on the ground had congealed into a black-purple color. A sturdy servant woman fell on the couch, her hands still clamping her neck, Zhang Wenyi sat in the corner with a pale face and shivered.

Looking at the vomit beside her, Li Shimin felt his stomach churn. Looking back and signaling the eunuch behind him to quickly find someone to get Zhang Wenyi out, he looked at the palace and Zhang Wenyi who was shrinking in the corner with disgust, Li Shimin turned around and walked out of the palace.

After a while, a eunuch hurriedly walked up to Li Shimin's side and said softly: "Your Majesty, the bruises on Wen's arm are probably injured by the fight." ”

Li Shimin looked coldly at the group of servant women in the courtyard, and a few words popped out from between his teeth: "I don't know what the sky is high and the earth is thick." ”

The eunuch understood and found someone to take away all the servants in the courtyard. Not long after those people left, Concubine Wei, who had heard the news, also hurried in with a group of palace maids. When she saw Li Shimin present, she quickly knelt down to apologize.

Li Shimin stared at Wei's face and said coldly: "Wei, you are too disappointed in me. ”

Wei Guifei hadn't seen Li Shimin's serious look at her for a long time, so that she had lost that cautious feeling recently. Seeing Li Shimin's sinking face today, Wei Shi realized that Li Shimin was not a good-tempered emperor. At that moment, he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with weak legs, and kowtowed again and again to ask for sin.

Seeing Concubine Wei's panicked look, Li Shimin felt helpless. This woman seems to be shrewd but she is actually stupid, and she is framed by others, and you won't even be able to push the boat here. It's hopelessly incurable to make things so complicated after a long time.

Thinking about Wen's is also pitiful, his home was attacked and he was displaced. was accepted as a righteous daughter by the Yiguo Princess, so she thought she had climbed a high branch? It's just being taken advantage of. How can a poor woman be based on an upper-class family, the wives and concubines of the royal family are not what this kind of person can do. If she was from a famous family, with her rather a shadow of the eldest grandson queen, she might be a good match for the pheasant slave, but it's a pity.

That night, news came out of the palace: Princess Jin was temporarily sent to the cold palace on suspicion of witchcraft and bewitchment, and she would deal with it after the problem was investigated. Concubine Wei's improper handling of the Jin princess incident led to many people in the palace violating the law and being demoted to one level to see the after-effects.

Zhang Wenyi was carried out of Jinyang's dormitory by several eunuchs, and she found that she was walking in an unfamiliar direction. So he asked, "May I ask where is my father-in-law going?" ”

The eunuch's attitude was very good, and he said gently: "Your Royal Highness, you committed murder in Princess Jinyang's bedroom, Your Majesty was furious, and I asked you to take Your Highness down to reflect behind closed doors. ”

Zhang Wenyi had already made full preparations and planned to meet the emperor to defend herself, but she didn't expect such a result. It turned out that the emperor didn't want to see her at all, and he didn't even give her the slightest chance. Zhang Wenyi's heart gradually became cold, she knew that if it was in a modern environment, if a spy lost its value, the treatment after the recall was usually cruel. Many spies who were once active on the front line were mostly engaged in inconsequential jobs after being recalled, and no one cared about them.

Now her situation seems to be in such a way, there is no use value and needs to be abandoned. It's a pity that she was kicked just now, and her entire right arm hurts when she moves, and it is difficult to resist these eunuchs now.

They walked for a long time before they came to a dilapidated courtyard. It's very secluded, and there are no people around. They were greeted by two eunuchs in their forties, one of whom stared at Zhang Wenyi with a dark gaze, which made her feel furious.

The eunuch who was the leader of the several eunuchs who sent her said to the eunuch who was staring at Zhang Wenyi, "Gonggong Feng." This is the concubine of His Royal Highness the Nine, who killed someone and was sent by the emperor here, but the emperor did not say what to do. ”

The father-in-law Feng replied with a low brow: "The old slave knows. ”

The father-in-law who was the leader glanced at Zhang Wenyi with pity, and then left with his subordinates.

Although Zhang Wenyi didn't know why he looked at him with which eyes, she knew that there must be a big reason, and the key was in this Feng Gonggong, so she was secretly vigilant in her heart.

Zhang Wenyi was on guard against Wan Beware, but he still didn't guard against Gonggong Feng's plot. That Gonggong Feng grabbed Zhang Wenyi and tied her hands and feet behind her, Zhang Wenyi couldn't get out of it even if she wanted to struggle.

Gonggong Feng sneered and said, "Don't struggle, there are many concubines who are older than you and favored here, and in the end they will all be obedient." Mistakes are not allowed in the palace, and if you make mistakes, you will be punished, and it is the same even for the queen here. ”

As he spoke, he took out a handkerchief and blocked Zhang Wenyi's mouth, and then lifted her into the room and hung her on the beam.

For three days in a row, Zhang Wenyi was tied up and hung in the house by the father-in-law Feng in different patterns, which lasted for several hours every day. If she hadn't resisted, she would have suffered less. If you resist, Gonggong Feng will come up with some tricks again, making you even more uncomfortable.
