Chapter 122: Usurpation
Fang Shi looked at Xia Zhihan's crying appearance, and felt uncomfortable in his heart, and pulled Xia Zhihan, Fang Shi said fiercely: "Han'er, you don't have to worry, mother has her own way." ”
When Xia Zhihan heard this, he hurriedly raised his head and looked at Fang Shi with hopeful eyes, "Mother, if my sister knows......
Fang Shi turned his heart sideways, "What if you know, we are now cornered, can we still watch you die, you don't have to worry about your sister, I will make her obedient." ”
Seeing Fang Shi say this, Xia Zhihan put his mind at ease and said, "Mother, I'm afraid that my sister won't agree......"
Fang Shi looked at him and shook his head, "You go back first, Mother won't watch you die." ”
Xia Zhihan saw that Fang's face was calm, and knew that she must have her own thoughts, so he listened to her words and went back to the Prime Minister's Mansion to wait for the news.
As soon as he entered Yihan Garden, he saw Xia Mengxi sitting on a chair, Xia Zhihan subconsciously wanted to turn his head and walk out, but he heard Xia Mengxi's sharp voice, "Big brother! ”
Xia Zhihan couldn't pretend that he didn't hear it, so he had to turn his head and ask with a smiling face, "What is my sister doing here?" ”
Xia Mengxi was angry in his heart, but he couldn't say anything, seeing Xia Zhihan's appearance, he had to say to Biyi beside him: "You go to the door and guard, don't let people in." ”
Biyi nodded and went down, Xia Mengxi stood up at this time, stared at Xia Zhihan tightly and asked, "Big brother, if you want me to marry the prince, did you plan it yourself, just to get benefits from the prince by virtue of your relationship?" ”
Xia Zhihan was embarrassed and didn't speak, this expression was undoubtedly acquiesced in Xia Mengxi's opinion, Xia Mengxi broke out instantly, and his face was distorted, "Big brother, why do you want to be like this, do you still think I am your sister, in order for you to recover your position, can you bear to push me into the fire pit, big brother, why are you so selfish, don't you know the current situation, once I marry into the prince's mansion, my father will never care about me again." ”
After Xia Mengxi said this, she was very sad in her heart, she was not sad when outsiders dealt with her, but when she was already like this, her own eldest brother in law still used her fiercely, how could she not be sad.
Seeing Xia Mengxi's sad appearance, Xia Zhihan also felt a little guilty, walked over and said softly: "Sister, just forgive the eldest brother this time, if you don't marry into the prince's mansion, the eldest brother will die." ”
Xia Mengxi raised her head, "Why did the eldest brother say that?" After asking, Xia Mengxi seemed to feel something, and looked at Xia Zhihan with wide eyes, "Big brother, you say, do you have any handle in the hands of the prince?" ”
Xia Zhihan knew that he was speechless, but thinking of Fang's assurances to himself, he continued: "Sister, don't hide it, at the beginning, the eldest brother really seemed to let you live a good life, so he went to ask the prince to marry you as a side concubine, but today the eldest brother accidentally learned the prince's secret in the prince's mansion, and now we have to marry." ”
Xia Mengxi looked at Xia Zhihan and asked, "What secret?" ”
Xia Zhihan shook his head, "Sister, there are some things you still don't know......
Xia Mengxi's heart sank, knowing that this was definitely not an ordinary secret, so he continued to ask: "Big brother, now that we are all on the same rope, is there anything else that can't be said?" ”
Xia Zhihan hesitated in his heart, but he was afraid that if she didn't tell Xia Mengxi, she would insist on not marrying into the prince's mansion, Xia Zhihan thought about it, and nodded and said, "Okay, if I tell you, you must not tell others." ”
Seeing Xia Mengxi nodded, Xia Zhihan said, "The prince gathered many people and decided to usurp the throne. ”
What the?! Xia Mengxi jumped up from the bed in shock, Xia Zhihan hurriedly stepped forward to cover her mouth, and his voice was hurried: "Be quiet, if others hear it, we will all die." ”
Xia Mengxi vigorously broke Xia Zhihan's hand, sat on the chair on the side, and tried to lower his voice as much as possible, "Big brother, this is a crime of killing the head, how can you ......?"
Xia Zhihan also felt guilty in his heart, so he had to half-squat down and look at Xia Mengxi and said, "Xi'er, I also know that things are dangerous, but now that this is the case, what do you tell me to do?" ”
Xia Mengxi burst into tears, looking at his eldest brother who was begging him and shook his head, "Big brother, this is your business, I would rather go back to the nunnery and continue to live than do such a thing." ”
With that, Xia Mengxi stood up and walked out.
"Xi'er ......" Xia Zhihan stood in place, watching Xia Mengxi walk slowly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, his mother had already promised him, and he also believed that between himself and his sister, his mother would definitely choose to help him.
Xia Mengxi returned to the house from Yihan Garden, and immediately asked Bi Yi to pack up her things, Bi thought that Xia Mengxi didn't look good, so she didn't ask much, she hurriedly packed up a few bags, and the master and servant hurriedly walked to the nunnery.
It wasn't until noon that Xia Mengxi and Biyi returned to the nunnery, as soon as they walked into the house where they lived, Xia Mengxi saw Fang Shi kneeling in front of the Buddha and chanting, and when he saw that he was coming, he didn't care, and slowly finished the last paragraph, then he stood up and walked to the wooden chair next to the table and sat down.
Xia Mengxi felt uncomfortable, and didn't care about Fang's demeanor, put the burden aside, and sat on the chair next to him.
As soon as he sat down, he heard Fang Shi shout coldly, "Kneel!" ”
Xia Mengxi was stunned, stood up and looked at Fang Shi and asked, "Mother, what did you say, why did you want your daughter to kneel?" ”
Fang raised his head, looked at Xia Mengxi and said, "Why don't I know, why don't you listen to your brother?" ”
Xia Mengxi was stunned for a while, and then she reacted, it turned out that her mother had already known about that matter.
"Mother...... You already knew? ”
Fang didn't answer her words, just tilted his head and said to Biyi, "Pack up your things and go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
Bi Yi looked at Xia Mengxi in embarrassment, and then at Fang Shi, not knowing what to do.
Xia Mengxi's patience was finally worn out, her eyes widened, almost hysterical, "Mother, what are you doing, you know that your daughter will die when she goes back, do you have to watch your daughter die?" ”
Fang's eyelids twitched, but he quickly returned to the house normally, "Xi'er, if you don't go back, your eldest brother will die." ”
What is the reason for this, Xia Mengxi almost collapsed, "Mother, the eldest brother is your child, isn't your daughter, why do you want to exchange your daughter's life for your eldest brother's life, that incident is caused by the eldest brother, why do you have to bear it for your daughter?" ”
Fang suddenly stood up and hit Xia Mengxi in the face with a wave of his hand, Xia Mengxi was defenseless and fell to the ground all of a sudden.
"What are you talking about, your eldest brother is our only hope, if you can soar, you will be our backer in the future, what about you, just a daughter, what can you do, after so many years of living a life of fine clothes and food, are you still not satisfied?"
Fang Shi said coldly, and when he looked at Xia Mengxi, there was no trace of emotion in his eyes.
She was scared, she had no backer for her mother's family, and she was ruthlessly abandoned by the prime minister, only this one son could count on, if something went wrong, I was afraid that she would never have a future in her life.
Xia Mengxi felt sad in her heart, her mother said to herself so directly, she didn't even care about what she thought in her heart, yes, she was her mother's daughter, even if her mother let herself die, she had to laugh.
Xia Mengxi slowly got up from the ground, took the two burdens, and said to the Fang family: "Mother, my daughter will say goodbye." ”
After speaking, he just bowed his head slightly to Fang's family, then turned around and walked out of the room. A line of tears flowed from Fang's eyes, she didn't fail to see the despair in her daughter's eyes just now, but she was still selfish, after all, her son was her only inheritance.
Xia Mengxi and Biyi walked out of the nunnery, Xia Zhihan's carriage was already waiting there, seeing Xia Mengxi coming out, Xia Zhihan also knew that his mother must have used some method to persuade his sister, so he smiled and said, "Xi'er, are you okay?" ”
Xia Mengxi endured the sadness in her heart, did not speak, and helped Biyi's hand into the carriage.
Xia Zhihan pursed his lips, didn't make a sound, and rode on the horse and urged the carriage to move forward quickly.
In the carriage, Xia Mengxi leaned against the carriage of the carriage, her heart was already gray, she was given up by her mother again, last time it was like this, this time it was the same, what is it, even her own mother can treat herself like this, Xia Mengxi wanted to cry without tears, but opened her eyes and looked at the curtain in front of her.
Biyi was a little scared, and cautiously stepped forward and said, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" ”
Xia Mengxi shook her head, "It's okay." ”
In the palace, in the Jinglan Palace, the eldest grandson was leaning on the couch with her eyes closed, and Concubine Jing on the side took a sweet and delicious apple from the plate, cut it into small pieces, picked it with a silver hairpin and put it into the mouth of the eldest grandson night.
"Your Highness, how is Apple?" Concubine Jing was wearing a purple palace robe, her snow-white skin was exposed, and her big eyes were slightly squinted, looking lazy and seductive.
The eldest grandson smiled and reached out to touch Concubine Jing's face, "Father is really lucky to have such a lovely beauty as you." ”
Concubine Jing looked at the face of the eldest grandson, a little distracted, although the prince of the eldest grandson night is not very favored, but he has inherited the excellent bloodline of the eldest grandson family, and a handsome face that charms all living beings makes Concubine Jing always look down.
"Your Highness is really good at laughing, Jing'er's heart only belongs to His Highness."
When the eldest grandson heard this, he laughed a few times, sat up from the couch, hugged Concubine Jing's delicate body and said: "I will raise troops in the near future, if I can capture this palace at that time, how about allowing you to be the queen?" ”
Concubine Jing's little face immediately shone like a peach blossom, "Is Your Highness serious?" ”
Eldest Sun Ye pinched her cheek, "When did I lie to you." ”
At this moment, the voice of the guards came from outside, and Changsun Ye hurriedly stood up and walked out of the door.
"Prince, Gonggong Su is looking for you everywhere, saying that the emperor has summoned you to the imperial study."
The eldest grandson heard this, nodded, packed up his clothes slightly, and walked to the imperial study.
