Beihu (1)

Xie Lan, the king of Song, was suspected of bribing the assassins to assassinate important officials of the imperial court, but in the end, it was over.

This result was very surprising to all the ministers, they all thought that under the review of Dali Temple and Chu Taiwei, some things could be created out of nothing even if they didn't have them; But who expected that Taiwei Chu was suddenly very abnormal, not only came up with accurate proof to confirm that Xie Lan, the king of Song, could not appear outside at all that night, but also made the bitter lord Xia Xiang change his rhetoric and said that it was dark that night, maybe he was wrong.

When the emperor heard that Xia Xiang could make a mistake in such an important matter, he was furious and ordered him to be fined for one year.

Xie Lan didn't understand why such a turn of events suddenly occurred, but Xuan Jinhuan knew it clearly.

The descendants of the Chu family in Huizhou came from there, and he was a highly respected elder Dazongzheng; What this elder said to Captain Chu is unknown, but for the sake of the Yong'an Army, the Chu clan in Huizhou will explicitly hint at what Captain Chu should do. And Xia Dan suddenly changed his words purely in the hope that this matter would end as soon as possible, so as not to affect his daughter Zhu Yunqing, which would outweigh the losses.

So after both Taiwei Chu and Xia Xiang weighed it, this was the result.

So Emperor Chengji ordered Xie Lan's ban to be lifted; At this time, the northern border was in an emergency, and Emperor Chengji simply asked him to lead troops to the northern border; The deputy general is still the junior general of Jinning, but he also ordered Xie Ye, the king of Wu, and Yan Fan, the eldest son of the prince of Zhenguo, to supervise the army.

The only thing Xie Lan should be glad about was that this time Emperor Chengji did not let Chu Ci bring a secret edict to kill him.

Wu King Xie Ye and Xie Lan are considered to be people with the same disease, although in fact Xie Ye is much luckier than Xie Lan; And Yan Fan is a member of the Yan family, so it is a little subtle.

Before leaving, Emperor Cheng Ji summoned Yan Fan.

Because of the experience of Chu Ci during the last invasion of Dongjun, Xuan Jinhuan heard the news from the palace and specially asked why the emperor summoned Yan Fan. And soon got the result, the emperor asked Yan Fan to behave well this time, and on the day of the victory of the army, he would marry him, and let him marry Princess Zhaohua as his wife.

Xuan Jinhuan was still incredulous when he heard about it: "Princess Zhaohua is the emperor's favorite daughter, how could the emperor let her marry someone from the Yan family?" That doesn't sound so true.

"Maybe the emperor has an idea a long time ago, but we don't even know what it is." Yi Yu said.

But they all knew that no matter what they thought, it had absolutely nothing to do with Song King Xie Lan.

However, since it has nothing to do with Xie Lan, they are not so constrained in doing things.

"You say, Princess Zhaohua, will she be willing to marry someone from the Yan family?" Xuan Jinhuan suddenly remembered and asked.

Yi Yu Zhengse said: "Who can disobey the order of the monarch's father? For example, Xie Jun, the king of Qi, wanted to disobey the emperor's arrangement and be with the woman he liked, but in the end, he just lost the life of that girl in vain. ”

However, Xuan Jinhuan felt that the example of Xie Jun, the king of Qi, was not very valid here, originally the matter between Xie Jun and Xu Zhao was a bureau set up by the West Master of Yong'an Secret Guard from the beginning, and from their acquaintance to the final Xu Zhao's "death" was in the calculation of the Song Master. And it is said that at the beginning, the emperor acquiesced in the marriage between King Qi and Xu Zhao, and it was Mrs. Yan who was unwilling to let her son marry a lowly woman to affect the future of the concubine, so that the Yan family tried to get rid of Xu Zhao, and step by step entered the bureau set by the master of Song.

Xuan Jinhuan suddenly thought of a very interesting thing: "What would happen if Princess Zhaohua knew about this matter in advance?" ”

I don't know what to expect, but just give it a try.

Princess Zhaohua and King Xie Jun of Qi are still different after all, and maybe the result will be completely different.

"If Princess Zhaohua is really allowed to marry into the Yan family, what will happen after that none of us can predict. But it is precisely because there are so many variables that if you can prevent it, try to prevent it. Xuan Jinhuan thinks.

The matter of the fifth girl Yan before made the two families of Yan and Chu a mess, but Princess Zhaohua is not the fifth girl of Yan, she is the biological daughter of Emperor Cheng Ji and Mrs. Chu.

Among the emperor's children, Princess Zhaohua is undoubtedly the most outstanding.

Therefore, the rumors about Princess Zhaohua in the court are second only to Xie Jun, the king of Qi, and Xie Xuan, the king of Jin, after all, among the princes and princesses, only Princess Zhaohua was taught by the emperor himself.

In fact, Xuan Jinhuan had suspected one thing before.

According to the news found out by Yunyan Pavilion, Xie Jun, the king of Qi, was actually a chess piece pulled out by the emperor to sharpen Xie Xuan, the king of Jin, and the emperor thought that those who were monarchs must be stoic and indifferent; And Xie Jun and Xie Xuan have had a good relationship since childhood, so when the two of them can fight each other for their own interests, it means that Emperor Ming's cruel plan has succeeded. And now, it seems to be half the battle.

It's just that it's not possible, in fact, even King Xie Xuan of Jin is the emperor's pawn, and his real favorite prince is Princess Zhaohua.

After all, from ancient times to the present, only the prince will be taught by the Son of Heaven himself to teach the way of the emperor.

However, this is an groundless rumor after all, and there is no real evidence, and it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false.

Therefore, although Xuan Jinhuan had such suspicions, the threat of Princess Zhaohua is obviously not as big as that of King Qi and King Jin, so it will be put aside for the time being.

Yun Yan Pavilion's nails in the palace revealed the emperor's meaning to Madame Chu.

Mrs. Chu didn't want to believe it at first, and secretly asked the people of the Chu family to verify the news, and only after being anxious did she decide to tell her daughter Princess Zhaohua the news.

"Mother, where did you hear this?" Princess Zhaohua didn't believe it at all.

"Your uncle found out, it's true." Mrs. Chu bowed her head gloomily and sighed, "Your father said that when this victory comes, Yan Fan can return with meritorious service, he will let you marry Yan Fan." ”

"Why? I don't want to marry someone from the Yan family. After being confirmed to be true, Princess Zhaohua immediately became anxious, "Even if my father asks me to go and kiss me, I just don't want to marry into the Yan family." ”

As soon as she heard her mention the word "kiss", Mrs. Chu changed her expression: "What kind of kiss, how can the mother concubine let you go to kiss!" Look at your second sister, she went to Beihu with her relatives, and now that Beihu is invading, your second sister doesn't know what life and death are like in Beihu. ”

Thinking of Princess Yuanhua who went to Beihu with her relatives, Princess Zhaohua's face turned pale and she didn't dare to speak anymore.

"Xinfang, don't worry, the concubine will definitely think of a way, the concubine will never let you marry into the Yan family." Mrs. Chu held Princess Zhaohua's hand tightly and comforted her, "If it really doesn't work, the mother concubine will go and beg your father to let you marry into the Chu family." ”

"Mother Lao is worried about her daughter. It's just that this thing, if it's true, I'm afraid the mother's method won't work. Princess Zhaohua pursed her lips, revealing a resolute look, "My daughter has a way, and I ask my mother not to ask about it, my daughter knows what to do." ”

Mrs. Chu looked up and saw Princess Zhaohua's expression, and nodded stunned.
