Chapter 570: Think Twice Before You Act

Everyone has withdrawn, and the Xianwang Mansion seems to have returned to the situation of yesterday. When I left two years ago, it was so vigorous, the entire capital, and even the entire Daliang country, by the way, also involved the Li country and the Mongolian country, all of which were full of wind and rain. I finally came back two years later, who knew that it had only been back for three days, and so many things had happened, and I saw that the entire Xianwang Mansion was in dire straits. Xuanyuan Yichen almost wondered if he shouldn't have come back at all and stayed at the border forever, at least they were still living a safe and worry-free life now.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Yichen, the idle king, frowned and fell into deep thought. The baby didn't really understand what was going on, but seeing that his father seemed to be a little sad, he stopped playing and stayed quietly by his father's side. Chu Yi and Xiao Yue also stayed in the idle court, although they wanted to ask the idle king what to do, but they still didn't ask anything, so let the idle king think about it. On the fifteenth, he went out to inquire about all kinds of news, and as soon as there was any important news, he immediately rushed back to report it.

The people in the capital, naturally, also found out that something was wrong, watching the arrival and departure of the guards, watching the appearance and entry of the soldiers in the barracks, and then linking to what happened this morning, although the people saw and heard really not much, but they couldn't stand their imagination, and the number of the people was so huge, brainstorming, in fact, it was only a morning, and all kinds of speculations had been circulating among the people, and there were all kinds of versions. However, to sum up, there is only one central idea, that is, the emperor once again wants to be unfavorable to the idle king and the idle princess.

There is no movement in the Xianwang Mansion at all, but normal life still has to go on. Therefore, there are still people guarding the gate of the Xianwang Mansion, and some people come out to buy daily necessities that need to be used every day, including vegetables and so on. In the morning, it was surrounded, and no one could go out or come in, and it was not until the people who surrounded them had left that the people in the house could finally come out and move.

Although the identity is so different, everyone lives in the capital, and many people live on another street that is only one street away from the Xian Wangfu. Most of the people who come out on weekdays know each other and often do some business, even if they are not friends, but it's okay to say a few words.

The common people can't hold back their curiosity and concern, and if they catch anyone who comes out of the idle palace, they have to ask what happened in the idle palace, is the idle princess not coming back after entering the palace? Why did Xiao Yue, who went with him, come back, but didn't see Princess Xian? And what did these imperial guards who suddenly came and left, and those soldiers in the barracks, come here? And the emperor in the palace, what does he want to do?

At the beginning, in the face of these problems of the common people, the people who came out of the Xianwang Mansion were full of embarrassment, as if there was something unspeakable. But as there were a few more people who came out to buy things and run errands, they couldn't stand the people asking one after another, and slowly news finally came out of the Xianwang Mansion.

Everyone didn't expect it, but in fact, it was also expected that the emperor fell in love with Princess Xian's beauty and wanted to keep her in the palace. Princess Xian didn't agree, so the emperor locked her up. I heard that as long as the idle king dares to enter the palace to find the idle princess, so many guards and soldiers in the palace will immediately catch and lock up the idle king. The idle king was worried about his wife and wanted to protect his children, and he didn't know what to do. The entire Xianwang Mansion has also fallen into this dilemma and miserable fog.

So that's what happened! It seems that everyone has guessed correctly, the emperor really didn't do anything good, and he wanted to persecute King Xian and Princess Xian again. Although the mouths of the common people did not dare to say it, their expressions clearly expressed such thoughts.

It's just that the idle king doesn't know what to do, they are just ordinary people, they want money or not, they want power or not, even if it is a fight, I am afraid that it will be a cause for chaos. They don't know what to do, and they can't seem to help with anything, and the only thing that can be called useful is probably that there are too many of them!

At noon, many people already knew what happened between the palace and Princess Xian, and by the evening, everyone in the capital knew about it. And the news from the Xian Wang's mansion, through the word of mouth of the people, has derived more and more versions, the central idea has always been the same, but it is inevitable to add oil and vinegar. For example, in the mouths of the common people, the idle king and the idle princess are becoming more and more respectable and pitiful, while the emperor is becoming more and more hateful and hateful!

In the palace, the situation is even worse, even if nothing happens, there are suddenly so many more soldiers in the palace, and the guards are all guarding the same place, which is enough to make the entire palace feel that it is not peaceful. It's just that unlike ordinary people's vegetable markets, everyone can almost discuss it openly, and if you say that you need to avoid it, you can also fully express it with your own eyes. In the palace, so many people don't even dare to say a word, even if they look at each other, they are afraid that they will fall into the eyes of those who have a heart, and then bring trouble to themselves.

In the emperor's vast harem, all the concubines are trying their best to come to the emperor's side on weekdays, and if they can spend the night by the emperor's side, it will be enough to envy the beauty of the entire harem. However, in the past two days, I don't know if everyone knows that the emperor actually started to be jealous of the previous abolition queen and moved her lust, or everyone knows that the emperor's side is the safest, but it is also the most dangerous, in order to ensure their own safety, then they should be as far away from the emperor as possible, for all the above reasons, these concubines disappeared in front of the emperor all of a sudden. In addition to these guards who protect themselves, the emperor can be said to have really become a loner, and I am afraid that Gonggong Li is the only one who has been with the emperor from beginning to end!

The whole capital has fallen into an inexplicable danger, just like the calm before the storm, the quieter it is now, it seems to indicate that in the near future, the storm will come more violently!

As with every day, the minutes passed, the sky gradually darkened, and the day was about to pass.

In the room, there are only two people, the idle king and the baby. When he was at the border, this happened occasionally, when there was a major accident in the business of Liguo, and no one else had a way to call the shots and deal with it, Liu Qingyan would leave for a while, as short as a few days, as long as half a month. Although it was only once or twice in total, Xuanyuan Yichen and the baby would always be a little reluctant, but they still understood and got used to this situation after all. But this time it was different, Liu Qingyan was not around, but she lost her freedom and was in danger at all times and was locked up in the prison of the Zongren Mansion.

No matter how young the baby is, he knows that his mother is not doing well. When he was young, he was very sensible, and when he saw that his father was unhappy, he not only did not cry or make trouble, but tried his best to make his father happy. It is also because of the baby that he is by Xuanyuan Yichen's side that he can stay still. Otherwise, no matter what Liu Qingyan said before, and what he promised, I am afraid that he would have already led a large number of people to enter the palace now.

The night passed, the dawn came, the sky was bright again, and a new day had arrived. After a day and a night of fermentation, the news that the emperor imprisoned Princess Xian was already known to everyone in the entire capital, not only ordinary people, but also the princes and ministers in the court. After yesterday's morning court was temporarily canceled, early this morning, all the civil and military ministers came to the palace early. Although he is more afraid of this emperor, afraid of his moodiness, and ruthless. But they also know better that this kind of thing must not be allowed. Before ensuring their own safety, they still have to do their part to persuade and tell the emperor that this is absolutely not allowed!

So, when the emperor appeared in the early court, the ministers had nothing else to say, basically they were playing the emperor, and the queen who had been deposed could no longer sit on the throne of the queen. Not to mention, she is already a woman who has married another woman for the second time and has a child. This is not allowed in public or private, in emotion and reason, in law and in law! The emperor must think twice before acting, he must not do this!

Of all the ministers who objected, none had a harder line than those who had daughters of the right age in their families. Among these ministers, the most fierce reaction is, of course, Prime Minister Chen Cheng. Originally, it was said that in two months, another beauty pageant would be held in the palace, and officials with school-age daughters at home could sign up. The time will come when the most suitable person will be chosen among these women, and she will be the new queen.

Among them, the highest voice is none other than the daughter of Prime Minister Chen's family. However, there are no absolutes in the world, which does not mean that the daughters of other officials' families do not have this opportunity. What's more, although there is only one seat for the queen, there are many seats such as imperial concubines and concubines, as long as you can sit on one of them, it is an unsurpassed glory in your own family. Recently, all the ministers have been preparing for this, seizing every opportunity to let their daughters appear more in front of the emperor, and strive to do their best.

This is also the reason why at the dinner the day before yesterday, knowing that there would be no good feast, many ministers still wanted to bring their daughters over. It's just that the person who came out of the limelight in the end, when everyone thought it was Miss Chen, and felt that the queen's position soon would be even more stable, but suddenly a former and a later Liu Qingyan appeared.

Not to mention anything else, even if it is out of his own mind, he will never accept this idea that the emperor suddenly came up with. Otherwise, all their previous efforts will probably be nullified, and their daughter will become a joke. So, this is something that is unacceptable to say and must be stopped.
