Chapter 65: In the Paddock (2)
The emperor said: "Okay, you two get up, I know that Chang Jue is not so stupid, but this matter is publicized, no matter how you investigate it, it will damage the face of the heavenly family, I can only ask him first." After all, I brought you here to let the people of Beihu see the Dashun people's riding and shooting skills, not to make jokes here. ”
Wei Changjue reacted quickly and immediately gave it up, "Erchen has a proposal, many people followed his father at the time of the incident, and it is not easy to hide it, it is better to tell everyone according to what Lan Yi said, the person who assassinated his father was Beihu's meticulous work, and after he was caught, he was already corrected on the spot, which can not only arouse the hatred of the whole court, but also make the person who stole the arrow of the son and the emperor assassinate the father and emperor not understand the situation and feel panic." ”
"That's a good idea." The emperor bowed his head, as if for the first time he realized the benefits that this son had brought to him, and said kindly, "I wronged you just now." ”
Wei Changjue hurriedly said, "Don't dare", and the emperor said: "You have turned a bad thing into a good thing, and I have my own reward." Later, you follow me and see what they are hunting. ”
Wei Changjue was stunned and froze in place, the emperor saw his appearance, as if he was a little impatient, got up and walked a few steps forward, turned around and asked in a deep voice: "Why don't you keep up quickly?" ”
Wei Changjue reacted at this time, said "yes", bowed to the queen again, did not forget to smile at Lan Yi, and followed the emperor out of the tent.
When the emperor saw this appearance before, he might think that Wei Changjue was not very clever, but now it is much more pleasing to the eye, and this unwitting has become an honest and sincere benefit.
The queen was very worried, and asked the water chestnut: "Should the palace also go out with you?" But what does this palace have to say in order to make the emperor really suspicious of Changze? Finally, this opportunity to suppress Concubine Ying, this palace can't miss it. ”
Water chestnut thought for a while, but looked at Lan Yi, "What did the princess say?" ”
Lan Yi already had a plan in his heart, stepped forward and let the queen hold his hand, "Erchen thinks that the queen mother doesn't say anything, and praises the princes greatly." ”
The queen disagreed, "You don't know, Concubine Ying has always been proud, and it is rare to have an accident under her son, if you don't chase a result at this moment, it will be even more difficult to say in the future." Naturally, Lan Yi rushed out to speak for her son in that situation just now, and the queen was also grateful and softened her tone, "You don't live in the palace, you don't understand these things that are secretly jealous, no matter how you propose, the palace won't blame you." ”
Lan Yi smiled, "Since the queen mother won't blame Erchen, why don't you listen to Erchen say a few more words?" The father made it clear that he didn't want to pursue the fourth emperor's brother, and he didn't want anything to lose face at this moment, and the queen mother chased the truth, which was contrary to her father's idea, and she was afraid that it would attract the counterattack of the concubine. What's more, the father and the emperor have already given him enough dignity to let Changjue follow, and the relationship between the father and son may be much better because of this. ”
The queen's ears were soft, and while listening, she nodded, "Yes, yes, they originally wanted to harm Changjue, but now they haven't done harm, maybe they will be angry, this palace can't deal with them at this time, and what Lan Yi said makes sense." ”
The water chestnut laughed, "The slave knows that the princess has a good idea. Master, if you show the tolerance of the world, the emperor will be happy. From now on, there is a princess by the master's side, and the slave is not afraid that you will be bullied. ”
The queen glared at her, the master and servant were like sisters, and they dared to say anything, "You know how to talk, and you threw the words to Lan Yi just now, I'm afraid you haven't thought about what I should do, right?" I think you're an afterthought, but you have the ability to go along with it. Lan Yi don't listen to her nonsense, this palace is an elder, and a mother is a person in the world, it is the right thing to protect you, how can you be bullied by others. ”
Having said that, the queen herself laughed, having a smart person by her side is really much better than a well-behaved and obedient stuffy gourd.
Later, as Lan Yi said, the queen did not show any resentment that her son was framed, and calmly and generously praised Wei Changyuan, who had the most prey, and helped him ask the emperor for a few more rewards, and specially told Ying Guifei that her two children were so promising, she must have raised them properly.
Concubine Ying had never seen such a queen who did not confront her, and she was shocked and grateful, so that the queen had already sung a red face, but the emperor instead picked up the mask of white face, and did not blindly praise, but taught Wei Changze two sentences, saying that he was still a little impetuous and not meticulous, and he came in the paddock to make a detailed work, but he didn't find out, if it wasn't for Wei Changjue to rescue him, I don't know what the consequences would be.
Criticism is enough, but he also praised the brother who has always been not very good with him, Wei Changze held back his belly and admitted his mistakes, and finally ended with "If Dashun and Beihu start a war, Erchen is willing to guard the territory for the vanguard", only to get some good faces from the emperor.
And Wei Changjue was praised by the emperor in front of everyone, and when he asked what reward he wanted, he asked the emperor for a foal with a smile, and said: "Erchen is helping the Nine Emperor Brothers, the Nine Emperor Brothers have the style of a general at a young age, and they will definitely guard the territory for their father and protect the stability of the people of Dashun in the future." ”
The emperor was very happy when he said this, and pointed out that this is what a brother and brother should look like, and the hearts of the soldiers who hate the enemy were also stimulated a little, and several generals came out to ask Ying to fight with Beihu, the emperor was very satisfied with this result, and he didn't realize it, so he smiled and looked in the direction of Wei Changjue a few more times.
The prince who has always been suppressed suddenly became so favored, and many ministers were secretly surprised, thinking that the direction of the wind was about to change.
But on the contrary, Wei Changze, who had been smooth sailing in his life, was frustrated for the first time, and after returning to his tent, he immediately became angry and asked Wei Changheng, who was following him: "Didn't you say that Wei Changjue couldn't turn over this time?" You see that he is following his father today, obviously he didn't hit any prey, but he is more beautiful than anyone else, is his father blindfolded by lard and blindfolded? He would take his assassin with him. ”
Wei Changheng lowered his head, indeed, this is the first time he has participated in such a scheme without experience, calculating and calculating, he will treat others as fools, it is really a miscalculation, although Wei Changze's questioning tone made him feel uncomfortable, but he could only admit his mistake under the fence: "I was negligent, I didn't expect my father to be angry, and he would figure out the reason for this so quickly, and now blame Beihu for the blame, we can only accept this result." ”
Wei Changze frowned, "It's okay now, not only did we not splash dirty water on the Third Emperor Brother, but we also made ourselves so worried, what if the Third Emperor Brother was reused by his father in the future, he was originally a son-in-law, and those civil officials in the court who had a string of brains were willing to speak for him." ”
Wei Changheng hurriedly said: "Fourth Emperor Brother, rest assured, his lingering in Tianxiangyuan is also a bad account, just take it out and stab it in front of his father, it's enough, let's be quiet for a while, mix this period over, and when he is about to get up, give a heavy blow." It's my fault this time, and I won't let the Four Emperor Brothers down next time. ”
No one knows about the plan of the two people out of the tent, and now the queen is tired and takes a nap in the tent, and Lan Yi is following the water chestnut to learn to make tea for the queen, looking at the water chestnut's familiar movements, Lan Yi said enviously: "It is worthy of being a person who has been in the palace for a long time, your technique is like flowing water." ”
Water chestnut smiled and said: "This is what a slave should do, and she has to do it every day, how can she not be familiar?" The princess is so smart, if she has the heart to learn, she will soon be able to learn. ”
Lan Yi shook his head, secretly wiped off the little water he spilled with a handkerchief in his hand, and said with a smile: "In terms of cooking and boiling tea, I don't seem to have the right idea, these hands are outrageously stupid. ”
The water chestnut said: "It doesn't matter if you learn it or not, the master hasn't learned this either, isn't it still the queen of the main palace?" ”
Lan Yi thought for a while and asked quietly: "Aunt Lingjiao, I have always felt strange, why is the queen mother a little more beautiful than Ying Guifei, but she always asks Ying Guifei to take the limelight?" Naturally, if it's inconvenient to answer, you don't say it. ”
Water chestnut stared at the tea in his eyes, and said: "It's not inconvenient, tell you, and give you a reminder." In fact, when the master first came to the emperor's side, the emperor still liked the master. It's a pity that the master has a straightforward temperament, from childhood to adulthood, although she abides by the appearance of a famous lady, but she wants to be windy and rainy, she always feels that she likes what she doesn't like, so she has to say it to the emperor, the emperor may feel fresh at first, and then he can't stand it. ”
"Can't stand it?"
Water chestnut nodded, not hiding it at all, "The emperor's identity is also helpless, but in the master's world, black is black, white is white, like is like, disgust is disgust, some words, she doesn't like it, even if it is good to the emperor, there are many times, the emperor doesn't like to listen, the slave feels that this matter can't complain about the emperor, after all, who wants to read so many books every day, but also come to listen to his wife's admonition." ”
Lan Yi felt uncomfortable for the queen, "But the queen mother's persuasion like this is what a good wife should look like." ”
Water chestnut smiled faintly, this woman who has been with the queen for decades has a broad vision and the wisdom to match her age, "What the princess knows, the emperor also knows, otherwise for so many years, the concubine Niangniang is so favored, and the position of the middle palace has already changed hands." The character of our master is far from being comparable to those demonic women. It's just that the concubine appeared at the right time, and the slave sometimes thinks that God may just treat her preferentially, so give her such a good body and such a good time. ”
Lan Yi heard this, seemed to understand something, thought for a while and said: "When the noble concubine Niangniang came to her father's side, Beihu had not yet made a big mess, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the father must have been very proud in his heart, and he needed someone to share the joy with him?" ”
