CHAPTER XLIV
"Presumptuous, how can you call Princess Jin's name." He had a leg problem, sat in a wheelchair, and his tall body fell behind her like an iron wall, as if to block out all the wind and frost, so that Qing'er could inhabit quietly in his own safe haven.
Compared with the fury of the King of Jin, the King of Li stood still like a wooden stake, Murong Qian hurriedly knelt down and saluted, "The old minister is afraid, even if the King of Jin loves the princess of Jin again, this is the case, there is Liu Shangshu's daughter outside as evidence." ”
Just when Murong Qian thought that Qing'er was speechless, King Li stepped forward: "Father, the son is the party, and today the prince asked the son to take his daughter to ride a horse, which is an elegant thing." The fourth sister-in-law happened to get a sweaty and bloody horse, and she was very happy to ride on the horse, and her son-in-law, as a younger brother, naturally wanted to protect the safety of the fourth sister-in-law, but she didn't want to be used by others. King Li pulled the prince in without a trace, the prince's eyebrows frowned slightly, his younger brother was really different from the past.
"Father, the relationship between the sons and the princess is as deep as the sea, the princess is a fierce woman, and she will never be able to do the dirty things in the prime minister's mouth, but the prime minister is aggressive, and the sons and daughters are tolerable or unbearable. Someone, open your mouth. Without waiting for the people present to react, Mo Bao stepped forward a few steps, snapped, and a crisp slap sounded, Murong Qian was dumbfounded, he had been an official for many years, and he heard that there were two generations of queens in the family, and he was worth a prominent name, and he never dared to be sneered at him, let alone kneel and slap his mouth.
The queen was just about to say something to stop it, King Jin's knife-like gaze swept over, how could she not know her son's character, she tolerated since she was a child, suffered losses and never spoke, Qing'er was the person on the tip of his heart, don't say Murong Qian, if it was replaced by himself, his son might not be able to understand.
Mobao is extremely heavy, leaving no room for error. Murong Qian's pale old face was red and swollen, and he couldn't even see his original face clearly, the blood from his nose and mouth was dripping on the floor, and it took about half a column of incense before the emperor slowly spoke, "The emperor's anger should be gone, he is your uncle after all." There was no resentment in his tone, but like a loving father, coaxing his son, don't play with the toys, Murong Qian was extremely hateful in his heart, the prince didn't stop it yet, the prince's cold eyes looked at him being humiliated and beaten, and there was no trace of maintenance, he was sad in his heart, thinking that he should be the prime minister, but he was trampled on like this.
Mo Bao retreated behind Mo Zhuofeng, the King of Jin, and stood respectfully with his head bowed, as if the person who executed it just now was not him.
Xiao Wang knelt on the ground and trembled, she hoped that King Jin would not see it. The truth did not go as she wished, Qing'er walked to her side calmly and quietly: "Mrs. Mu is the sister of the eldest lady, shouldn't she be filial piety in the mansion at this moment?" ”
Xiao Wang's head was lowered and he was almost prostrate on the ground: "Your Majesty, the concubine... Concubine..."She had no reason to explain why she was in the racecourse. The emperor asked Mu Shilang to summon him into the palace and put her aside.
Murong Qian's expression of asking for help was placed on the crown prince without squinting, and his move was undoubtedly to bring the King of Jin and the King of Li into the opposite line at the same time. Isn't this what the prince wants, after all, he has deviated from the family rules of the Murong family for many years and participated in the succession, and the old lady Murong will never help him.
"Prince, it's a family matter, and it's also about your two younger brothers, as an elder brother, what do you think?" The emperor asked unhurriedly and softly.
The black pupils were unfathomable, deep as water, "Father, the son thought that this matter was deliberately done by someone with a heart." The father and the emperor gave marriage, the fourth brother and the fifth brother got married on the same day, and the prime minister and the princess married two daughters together. The sedan chair is staggered, which is really the excuse of the prime minister, the fourth brother, and the fifth brother. The fourth brother likes the four brothers and sisters, and the fifth brother and the fifth brother and sister are in love. The emperor's decree cannot be disobeyed, but he can't watch the two pairs of beautiful people miss this life, and they have to do it as a small means. As the elder of his sons, the emperor tacitly acknowledged that he was really magnanimous. Therefore, there will never be what the prime minister said, the fifth brother and the fourth brother and sister have a personal affair, and the conclusion of the son-in-law is false and deliberately planted. ”
Murong Qian's five thunders thundered, and he was shocked on the spot, and the prince's words seemed to tell the world that he was nondescript, wanted to harm the royal family, and trampled on the dignity of the royal family. Could it be that he made a mistake in his previous decision, and the prince made today's incident, not to see what his position is, but to ...... His eyes widened like brass bells in an instant with fear. The queen's body was slightly tilted, her hands and feet were cold, and she was still speculating about how to help Qing'er get out of the predicament.
A soft and gentle smile imprinted into her eyes, Qing'er raised her eyelids, and met the worried gaze of King Jin, the usual cold, at this moment, the pupils disappeared, replaced by warmth. The big hand tightly embraced the little hand of the sheep and white jade, and the man's burning expression did not shy away from looking directly at this delicate little woman.
"Didn't the Prime Minister say that there was a witness? Announce it. The emperor's cold voice echoed in the main hall, Murong Qian's fists were already sweating under the swing of his sleeves, and the middle coat on his body was also soaked with sweat, and the cold wind penetrated through the cotton curtain not far away, making him shiver coldly, and his kneeling body was also stiff.
Gonggong Lu announced in a loud voice, "The emperor has a decree, and Liu Xinru, the daughter of Xuanliu Shangshu, will be seen by you." ”
Liu Xinru took small steps, the golden-winged butterfly embroidered on the skirt, with her steps, danced, looked from a distance, playful as if flying in the flowers, there was a charm, the first time to face the saint, the heart was like a drum, "The courtier Liu Xinru has seen the emperor, the queen mother, the queen mother." ”
"Well, I heard that you saw with your own eyes that Princess Jin had an affair with Prince Li?" There was a hint of disdain and mockery in his eyes.
"The courtiers rode to the woods and did see Princess Jin and Prince Li together."
"Liu Shangshu should have a daughter who knows how to be proportionate, and she will not be a clever and short-sighted girl." The Queen Mother thought a little, obviously praising it, but it was actually a point. Liu Xinru's cheeks are crimson, the little woman's mind is simple, climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, she can get the praise of the queen mother, and she can be regarded as promising to plan a good family affair in the future.
The prince's haze shrouded his whole body, and the murderous aura gathered in his black pupils, his back was to the emperor, and he looked down at Liu Xinru who was kneeling, "Liu Shangshu's daughter Hui Zhenlanxin, Your Royal Highness heard that Liu Shangshu also did his best to cultivate his two daughters. Just seeing King Li and Princess Jin standing side by side, he can be credible, the etiquette and honesty of the daughter's family are disregarded, and even slandering the royal family has no fear. ”
The prince's deep eyes with a thick disdain and disgust made Liu Xinru fall to the bottom, like sitting on pins and needles, judging the attitude of the two before and after, could it be that he pressed the wrong bet, and stepped forward without knowing whether he was alive or dead, "Prince, the courtiers are clumsy, Princess Li's emotions have affected the courtiers, so that the courtiers have failed to see the truth clearly, and mistakenly think that the two are pulling." ”
"Come on, pull it down and hand it over to the Shen Criminal Division, Liu Shangshu has an unladylike daughter, the official is demoted two levels, and he thinks about it for three months behind closed doors." Liu Xinru was as paralyzed as mud and was dragged out by the two palace maids. The royal majesty does not allow for provocation, and the indignation in the emperor's tone is obvious.
"Please calm the emperor's anger, and let the people's daughter Liu Lemei explain the reason." The sound is pleasant, moistens the heart and spleen, and the magnificent posture is as beautiful as a white lotus blooming with clear water, and Tsinghua is unique. Liu Lemei was sure that Liu Xinru would cause trouble early in the morning, so she waited outside the hall alone, and when she heard that something was wrong, she slipped in while the guards were unprepared.
The eyebrows are slightly frowned, the long eyelashes like a small fan are raised to form a dark shadow on the face, the tip of the small nose is exquisite, except for the paleness of the face, Liu Lemei is really beautiful.
The emperor's marrow-filled anger calmed down a little, "Who are you?" ”
"Back to the emperor, the people's daughter Liu Lemei is Liu Xinru's sister-in-law."
"Oh, do you know what it is to trespass?"
"The people's daughter is willing to die, and I implore the emperor to listen to the people's daughter's explanation. The sister of the people's daughter, Liu Xinru, is not intentionally offended, the girl is twenty-eight, the prince is in her prime, the prince has an outstanding demeanor, and it is the belonging that many women in the city yearn for, and the sister's love is at the beginning, and it just so happens that the process of horse racing is more chaotic, and the sister is absent-minded. But it wasn't the intention. Later, when the prince came to ask about the situation, there was no way to retreat, so he could only come rashly. Being in the boudoir is decent, and timid, and failed to correct the mistake in time, please ask the emperor to see who can do nothing, fortunately, it did not make a big mistake, forgive my sister's misspeech, and the people are willing to be punished on behalf of my sister. My father always taught us to be orderly, respectful and reasonable, and the daughters of the people were willing to die to apologize. ”
"There is no way to retreat, is it so difficult that you have to erase your sister's sins just by your so-called secret promise?" King Jin's gloomy and cold tone sounded again, and the scale that slipped between his teeth made people shudder.
"The people's daughter has no such intention, the sister has made a big mistake, should be punished, the father's teaching of the children is very strict, cautious, can not implicate the father because of the fault of the people's sister, the father's many years of pure and kind upbringing are all classified as mistakes, the emperor, the people's daughter has learned the female precepts since childhood, and also knows how to understand the father's difficulty, I implore the emperor to spare the father, the father is not wrong, and should not be implicated by the children."
"Since the young lady has read the female precepts, she should know that if she doesn't teach it, how can she say that her father's mistakes are involved." King Jin's dark pupils burst out with a fiery and angry light, but whoever hurts his arms must pay a terrible price, he just wants to show the world that his woman is not to be bullied by others.
