Chapter 186: Flat Thunder

Ten days after the news that the prince of Dingyuan had escaped from house arrest and disappeared, the imperial capital, which was full of discussions on the streets and alleys, gradually calmed down, and the fourth prince Wen Mozheng could no longer hear any relevant rumors when he walked on the street, and he felt more and more bored and depressed, and his eyes were lifeless.

"In the past two days, I have been talking about marriage with Princess Nanqing, Your Highness is tired, right? That crown princess is indeed a bit difficult to deal with, and even I am often asked by her, which is more powerful than the rumors. ”

Jun Wunian wandered around with his hands down, talking about difficulties, but the smile on his face did not decrease, and Wen Mozheng complained for a while: "Why are you still laughing?" Seeing that other people are living in peace, and I'm busy here preparing to marry a 'woman' I've never seen before, shouldn't you solve problems as a strategist? Seeing you laughing, I'm in a bad mood getting worse and worse! ”

"Why don't you laugh at this kind of good thing? His Royal Highness should look farther, even if it can't be far, he should look at the second prince with a sad face next to him. Jun Wunian gently shook the folding fan to fan the cool breeze, and his eyes were indifferent, "Although the Fox Hill Kingdom withdrew from the marriage, the matter with Miss Yan made the second prince feel a big blow, especially the second prince refused the emperor's marriage in front of the envoys of the five countries, which made the emperor very annoyed. At this juncture, His Royal Highness does not violate the holy decree and follows the emperor's will step by step, and the emperor will not see it, and his vigilance against His Highness is naturally weaker by three points, which is really a great thing for us, who are already weak. ”

Wen Mozheng listened to Jun Wunian's words, instead of laughing happily, he became even more depressed: "Good things are good things, you know good things, look at it, this time the second brother refused to pay attention to me." ”

"Your Highness is already an adult, you must learn to be independent, and it is impossible to always rely on the second prince. There is only one king of a country, either the second prince or His Royal Highness, if His Royal Highness gives in everywhere for brotherhood, and finally lets the second prince who only wants to compete for the throne but is unable to govern the country come to the world, wouldn't it be worthy of the hope of the people? Jun Wunian sighed slightly, and his eyebrows were dyed with a little regret, "If the second prince is in good health, it would be fine, but his illness is ...... In short, even if the second prince succeeds to the throne, it is difficult to ensure the long-term stability of Obuchi, and when it comes to qualifications, it is indeed inferior to His Royal Highness. ”

Wen Mozheng's illness and lack of longevity spread throughout the imperial city through the mouth of the envoy of the Fox Hill Kingdom, and Wen Mozheng has been heartbroken and sad since he got confirmation from himself, which is also one of the reasons why he has been bored for days.

Recalling his brother's increasingly pale cheeks and thin figure, Wen Mozheng couldn't help but be annoyed: "That girl Yan is also true, she ran away with someone when she learned that the second brother was ill and difficult to treat, and the second brother usually treats her sincerely and is let down, how can there be such a ruthless 'woman' in the world?" Fortunately, the second brother didn't marry her, and it's really not worth it if you pay for her again! ”

Stopping, Jun Wunian smiled dumbly at Wen Mozheng: "Your Highness, what kind of nameless fire is this?" Miss Yan left not because the second prince was terminally ill, but because she was chilled by the second prince's many concealments, if there were no such reasons, Miss Yan would definitely stick to the end and never give up. Although I also have a lot of complaints about Miss Yan, her character really shouldn't be judged, otherwise the sharp-eyed ink will not fall in love with her. ”

Complaining about being refuted made Wen Mozheng more and more unrefined, bowed his head and muttered for a long time, and suddenly clapped his palms and raised his head suddenly: "Ah, by the way, Wu Nian, this morning in the dynasty, my father said that the envoy of Huo Sidu was going to Qinglian Palace to watch, do you think she is sick in the brain?" Qinglian Palace has been burned like that, what else is there to see? After hearing you say that she also had a relationship with Shizi, I suddenly realized that why are the 'girls' that Shizi likes a little weird? How strange are his tastes? ”

"Helian Ming?" The smile on Jun Wunian's face dissipated, and his solemnity gradually rose.

There are some things that Wen Mozheng got the news one step ahead of him, and there are other things that Wen Mozheng doesn't know but knows, such as the seemingly nonexistent relationship between Helian Mingyan and Wen Moqing, and the fact that Helian Mingyan, who is now a visiting envoy, once assassinated the first emperor.

So, what was the reason why she wanted to go to Qinglian Palace in every possible way? In order to hang on to the Qinglian King who has been in contact, is that all?

"Your Highness, you go back to the palace by yourself, I still have some things to do." Jun Wunian left in a hurry, leaving Wen Mozheng standing in place in a daze, and it took a long time to sigh.

"I still have something important to say......"

The arrival of the ninth year added a smile to Yan Liwu, even if he had to run around to find clues during the day, he didn't complain, but he couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw the ninth day working hard behind him.

"Why did you call Jiu'er here, wouldn't it be 'quite' for her to be in the Drunken Wind and Snow Moon Tower? Boss Xiao takes care of her very much and won't let her suffer. "Yan Liwu, who got up early in the morning and was about to continue to go out to investigate, couldn't help but complain to Wen Moqing, looking at the sleeping Chu Jiu, he couldn't bear to wake up.

"In the past, when General Tong was recalled to the imperial capital, General Sang was already pregnant with Liujia, and when the first emperor sent troops to suppress the women's army, the child was full-term. I don't know if General Sang gave birth to a child, and I can't find any clues to track it down over the years, until I saw the copper brand and heard you say that it belonged to an outcast, then I thought that maybe she was the child of General Tong and General Sang. "Regarding the matter of the ninth year, Wen Moqing never joked about it, and gently covered the quilt for the ninth day, and her eyes were soft, "Master crossed the pulse of General Sang back then, saying that she should be pregnant with a 'female' child, if the ninth day is really General Tong and General Sang, I must take the responsibility of taking care of her." ”

"That's not a short time. You see that Jiu'er has been tired in the past few days, and he can't even take care of eating when he comes back at night, so he can fall asleep by throwing himself on the 'bed'. I've been looking for so many days and I don't have a clue, so why don't you take a day off today and let Jiu'er sleep well? ”

"I just want to find out about General Sang as soon as possible." Wen Moqing was silent for a while, and shook her head lightly, "I'll go out later today, let her sleep a little longer, and I'll go downstairs to cook some delicious meals for her." ”

Wen Moqing's appearance of a good father made Yan Li worry and couldn't help laughing, pulled his sleeve to push people out of the room, and gently closed the 'door' before he dared to laugh: "People say that one thing descends one thing, no matter how cold and stingy you are to outsiders, but you are more intimate to Jiu'er than your own father, it seems that Jiu'er is going to become your weakness." ”

"There has been a weakness for a long time, not much of this." Wen Moqing glanced at Yan Liwu and pointed to his waist and abdomen, "Do you want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs?" ”

"The poison is strong, so let's feed it to the dogs."

"What did the dog mess with you? It's really a femme fatale. ”

Similar to this, bickering is commonplace for Yan Liwu and Wen Moqing, but it is not certain for others, just after two sentences, there was a burst of angry shouts from the opposite room: "The little couple is looking for another place to make love!" What's the morning twittering? Don't let people rest?! ”

Looking at the beginning of the sky outside, Yan Li stretched out his tongue, hurriedly grabbed Wen Moqing and walked downstairs, and when he reached the middle of the stairs, Wen Moqing waved his hand, and the two copper plates fell in front of the room 'door' that came from the angry scolding just now.

Yan Li was dumbfounded: "Did the money bite your hand too much or did it break your brain?" ”

"Reward him." Wen Mo said this lightly, and then calmly went downstairs in Yan Li's surprised eyes.

Maybe it's providence, because the ninth day of the first day is too tired to get up a little late, Wen Moqing and Yan Liwu have been sitting in the front hall for most of the morning, and when Zhong Yue appeared in a body of dust, he almost cried bitterly and thanked the two for not leaving the inn.

"Didn't you let you stay in Dingyuan County? What's so in a hurry? Wen Moqing knew that Zhong Yue would not disobey his orders without special circumstances, and then saw that he was out of breath and drank most of the pot of tea in one gulp, obviously in a hurry.

Zhong Yue sat for a while, and after his breath was a little even, he hurriedly spoke: "There was a 'chaos' in the palace, and the prince asked me to rush to tell the young master, be careful about everything recently, don't do more things that annoy the emperor." ”

Wen Moqing and Yan Liwu looked at each other tacitly, and said in unison: "What's wrong?" ”

At this time, Zhong Yue was no longer in the mood to joke with the two, so he made a gesture to go to a place where no one was to talk, and then came to Wen Moqing's room, and with a calm face, he told the palace what happened after Wen Moqing left the palace.

"I heard that Lian Song proposed to the emperor to prevent Concubine Yun from being arrogant and arrogant, and the emperor sent someone to spy on this, but it turned out that the imperial concubine united with a group of concubines with the intention of harming Concubine Yun, and even found a straw man and a bunch of magic weapons that used disgust and evil magic from the imperial concubine's palace. The emperor was furious, and immediately ordered the imperial concubine to be sent into the cold palace, and asked Zhao Gonggong to make a long list, all those who secretly colluded with the imperial concubine were removed from the status of the concubine and slave, and the concubine was directly driven out of the palace. This incident caused a lot of discussion in the previous dynasty, some people said that the emperor was overkill, and some people said that this was an example of killing, and the speculation about the relationship between Lian Song and Concubine Yun was even more 'flower' and eight 'doors'. In short, the current palace is 'chaotic', and many courtiers who are attached to concubines have begun to panic, and many people have taken this opportunity to participate in the concert against ministers who have different political views and are hostile to Concubine Yun......"

"So, my father is also among the participants?" Without waiting for Zhong Yue to finish speaking, Wen Moqing had already guessed the reason for his coming.

King Dingyuan was canonized as a king when the first emperor ascended the throne, and Wen Jingyuan was able to take over the throne, and there was also a lot of help from this old prince. As the elder of the two dynasties, King Dingyuan was a thorn in the side of some people, a thorn in the flesh, and King Dingyuan often offended many courtiers by speaking out, and repeatedly opposed Wen Jingyuan's idea of wanting to upgrade to the rank of Concubine Yun.

"Do you want to go back? Or you and Zhong Yue go back, and I'll take Jiu'er to continue looking for clues here. Seeing that Wen Moqing frowned slightly, Yan Liwu knew that he was worried about King Dingyuan, so he lowered his voice and said softly.

Wen Moqing pondered for a moment and shook his head: "Don't go back." The fourth prince has always respected his father, and he will inevitably intervene in this matter, and Wu Nian will try his best to defend it, if I appear at this time, it will only make my father more dangerous. After a pause, Wen Moqing 'revealed' a helpless 'color': "Besides, I don't feel at ease if you and Jiu'er are here." ”

Yan Liwu avoided Wen Moqing's gaze, lowered his head, rolled up the corners of his clothes and did not speak again.

I can't tell when it started, the more Wen Moqing worried about her and treated her better, the more uneasy she became.
