Chapter 21: The Bitter Meat Scheme
A sharp arrow burst through the air and went straight to the emperor's back. Jing Yuzhao opened his eyes wide and shouted bitterly, "Father, get out of the way." The body rushed up, hugged the emperor from behind, and rolled on the ground a few times. The sharp arrow passed through the air with a strong wind, and with a stabbing sound, Jing Yuzhao's arm was scorching with a hot pain, and the flesh and cloth were torn together.
It really hurts, and it hurts. Jing Yuzhao really wanted to faint, so he really didn't feel the pain, and it would save more trouble. Closing his eyes, Jing Yuzhao pretended to be dizzy and motionless.
Someone moved her and carried her into the carriage. After a while, I felt Zi Dai sit next to her. The carriage began to staggered again, and Jing Yuzhao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it seemed that they had not been discovered in the dark night.
Cao Ze held a bow and arrow, staring at the dark night in front of him. As soon as this person comes out, nothing good happens. Back then, he tossed such an incident, and the whole imperial city was panicked.
"I've done what I should do, and it's time for you to make good on your promise."
"Okay, Zhu Zhi did not die back then, in order not to affect you, she went away to the border. I didn't expect you to be so infatuated, and I haven't forgotten her for so many years. If you want to find her, try your luck in Sand City. ”
Cao Ze didn't know whether he was excited or scared. Excited that he might see her, afraid that it would be empty again. Before leaving, he asked the question in his heart, "If you want to kill the King of Chu and let me kill him with one arrow, why did you make so many detours?" ”
"Because I don't want him to die too happily, and the real pain is to destroy everything he has. Besides, I found a funny thing, before I die, I will bury a big thunder for Your Majesty. ”
Cao Ze didn't bother to ask him again, went into the house to pick up the baggage, and set off directly. He has been exposed, he used to be alone, it doesn't matter what happens, and now, he doesn't want to die.
When Cao Ze left, a young man came out from behind the house. If Jing Yuzhao saw it, he would definitely be surprised. How did Gu Jue get together with the dark night.
"Dark night, our deal is complete, I'm leaving too, promise me, don't forget."
"Gu Shizi rest assured, I keep my promise."
Gu Jue sneered. If you don't know his past, you really think he's a trustworthy man.
Things went well, and the night left the place.
Jing Yuzhao lay down and went back to the courtyard, and waited for everyone to leave before he opened his eyes and moved. It's hard work. But it also works very well. immediately changed from an unknown princess to the princess that the emperor cared about the most. The bitter meat meter is indeed very useful.
Outside, Zidai has been receiving the various palaces that give gifts. The news that the three princesses bravely blocked the emperor's arrows has spread throughout the palace, and that is a rescue work.
The emperor was angry in the imperial study and scolded Wang Yuan, "You say, what's going on today?" Who knew about our plans? ”
Wang Yuan leaned over and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, we have indeed only arranged a few people, according to your plan, to scare and scare a few princesses, to see their courage, those who are skilled in archery are not our people." The old slave swore allegiance to His Majesty, and did not leak a trace of rumors, and His Majesty was aware of it. ”
"Seeker." This time the emperor was really angry. Since when did these people under his hands become more and more rubbish, and they can't do a single trivial thing. Those people, seeing that they are old, have followed the new master, and they want to kill me, but there is no way.
"Dali Siqing has been killed, what else to investigate? Don't think I don't know, Zhou Dahai, the waiter of the Criminal Department, quietly took refuge in the eldest prince. Didn't they all force me to make a prince? Then I will set it up to show them, and see if they can ascend to this throne as they wish. ”
Wang Yuan lay on the ground and didn't dare to move, His Majesty said such a thing, and if he said more, he might lose his head.
The matter was still inconclusive, and the emperor dropped a bomb at the next day's court. The holy decree made the emperor's eldest son Jing Yu the crown prince and lived in the East Palace. The second prince Jing Chen was the king of Wei, fiefdom Jinkou, and served as the official of the capital.
The crown prince was named the crown prince and had no position, but the king of Wei went to the ministry. Lord Shangshu Xiao of the Ministry is the father of Concubine Li, and one of her daughters is the side concubine of the eldest prince, which is interesting. Jiang Shoufu was already very popular among civil officials, and now that the officials have let King Wei intervene, it will not be easy for King Wei to arrange his own people in the future?
Jing Yuzhao ate grapes and listened to Ziyi talk about big news. The father's hand is good, the prince is the target, and the king of Wei is the one who shoots the target. The checks and balances between the two sides will depend on who can have the last laugh. His own knife is about to appear.
A few families are happy and a few are sad. The crown princess is in the same vein as the New Year. After fighting for so long, I finally earned the result I wanted. A rightful prince, a rightful heir. King Wei, it's not worth mentioning. The Su family still has hundreds of thousands of troops waiting at the border pass.
In the Yong'an Palace, Concubine Wei and King Jing Yuyan sat together, the palace maids and eunuchs had already retreated, and Concubine Shu held King Wei's hand, "Chen'er, this is not the final result. ”
The depressed King of Wei has a bad complexion, will he soon be in charge? I don't occupy the heir, I don't occupy the longest, just because one was born sooner or later, he became the king of Wei, and he became the crown prince, "Mother, I don't want to kneel down to Jing Yu in the future, besides, if he really ascends the throne, our end will definitely be miserable." ”
This lady knows. After fighting for a lifetime, we must divide a result.
"The concubine knows. If you go to the ministry, you have to work hard, if you don't know anything, ask your uncle, he is the first assistant, and you have to learn a lot. ”
King Wei also understood this truth. This time he was named the king of Wei, and he could go out of the palace to build a mansion, and outside, he was free to move, which was much more convenient than in the palace.
Concubine Shu is now worried about the marriage of King Wei. In the past, several families were interesting, but as soon as this prince stood up, seeing that the King of Wei was out of play, many families retreated, and they had to choose carefully again. Fortunately, her daughter's marriage was decided, otherwise there would have to be a change.
The temple has been very lively recently. Even the Huaqing Palace, which was indifferent some time ago, became enthusiastic. Jing Yuzhao tied gauze around his arm, and Zixuan fed Jing Yuzhao watermelon with a toothpick. Recently, Jing Yuzhao really felt the benefits of being favored.
The food is personally delivered by the Shang Gong of each palace. The fruit rouge jewelry that has been paid tribute recently is also the first one that Jing Yuzhao has received here, and this treatment is a fight with the noble concubine Lifei. It is said that from poor to rich, it is difficult to endure from rich to poor. Jing Yuzhao is enjoying it very much now, and he doesn't want to go back to the original. She now fully understood the hearts of those concubines who were desperately trying to climb up.
"Zixuan, I heard that you have been very happy these days and have made a lot of money?"
Zixuan said with a hippie smile, "The blessing of the princess, the various palaces have been very polite to us recently, and the auspicious words are not fatal, and some people want to come to the Wuyuan and have a small gift." ”
