Chapter 399: Heartache
"Uncle Huang is right." Wen Xinlan nodded with teary eyes. "Then ...... King Feng Yeqing and King Huiqing, the two imperial uncles, were both regent princes and assisted the young emperor in governing the government. ”
King Huiqing glanced at King Yeqing sideways, his eyes were a little complicated.
"So ...... good candidates"
"This dynasty does not easily set up phases, this is a rule inherited from the previous imperial dynasty." Wen Xinlan wiped her tears and said, "But now, the emperor's flesh and blood are still so small...... Hongu suddenly lost his backbone again......"
Her eyes fell on Jiang Yu: "The Metropolitan Governor has made many military exploits, is familiar with the situation in the DPRK and China, has a strong army, and is the best candidate." ”
Jiang Yu sneered silently, this position is not uncommon at all.
"Ministers, all reckless men, only know about war, but they ...... about the affairs of the court"
"The Grand Governor, oh no, Jiang Xiang, the queen mother is entrusting the government and the prince to you, how can you refuse?" King Yeqing interrupted Jiang Yu's words and gave him a warning look.
Jiang Yu disdained this.
"The emperor has always valued Jiang Xiang, and this palace doesn't know it." Wen Xinlan wiped her tears and said, "What's more, there is no more suitable candidate in the DPRK and China." ”
"Minister, obey the order." Jiang Yu responded against his will. He knew that this was just the queen's delaying tactic.
"Then the ministers have the courage to ask themselves to handle the funeral for the emperor, and ask the queen's mother for permission." King Huiqing stepped forward and bowed.
"Thank you, Uncle Huang." After Wen Xinlan said this, she turned around and knelt beside the emperor, crying loudly.
The queen, who has always been dignified, cried like a puddle of mud, which was really heartbreaking.
The people present had no choice but to kneel down and grieve in grief.
It's just that the young child actually fell asleep in Gan Peilin's arms.
The affairs in the palace were handed over to King Huiqing for acceptance, and King Yeqing and Jiang Yu had no reason to stay, just wait for the funeral to be prepared later, and then enter the palace to mourn.
"Metropolitan Governor, don't ......" King Yeqing took a deep breath and said, "Jiang Xiang, stay and stay." ”
Jiang Yu is not used to such an official position, it sounds really funny.
"What does the Prince Regent command?"
"Come on." King Yeqing's eyebrows moved slightly, and he said, "Let's not joke with each other." Yesterday, we were still strong enemies, but today, we have to be allies. ”
Jiang Yu didn't say anything, obviously disagreeing with his statement.
"To show sincerity...... King Yeqing said: "I will hand over all the old departments of King Shengqing absorbed by my subordinates to Jiang Xiang under the command and control, and leave no one behind." ”
"Your Highness, you're going to make me the king of Shengqing......"
"No, no, no!" King Yeqing shook his head again and again: "I don't mean that." I didn't do it to clear myself. Rather, only if you are stronger, for a while, the queen will not dare to do anything to you. And I can also rely on Jiang Xiang to have a peaceful birthday in a few days. ”
"It's not rude to come." A hint of coolness flashed in Jiang Yu's eyes: "Your Highness always has to exchange something for my sake." ”
"Jiang Xiang is quick to talk." King Yeqing said with some embarrassment: "The little girl and the virtuous son-in-law are still in the hands of Jiang Xiang, since we are now allies, I don't know if Jiang Xiang can not blame the past and send them back to my palace." ”
Seriously, Jiang Yu didn't want to keep Ao Xuan, no matter whether that incident was arranged by Wu Wei or not, if he dared to covet his woman, he would have to die.
But what King Yeqing said was not bad, the queen silently wooed the royal family, and it was probably not good to know that the conflict was not good, and she really wanted to suppress the situation.
"Jiang Xiang." Seeing that he was silent, King Yeqing had to add: "My people just secretly told me that almost all the old courtiers in the court who fought against the queen have been disposed of. In today's court, except for you and me, I am afraid that no one dares to confront the queen. You don't want to make any more enemies, do you? ”
"Hmph." Jiang Yu sneered: "It's okay to make enemies, I'm afraid that I don't deserve to be enemies." ”
"Well, I also have to take care of the face of the second aunt and wife in the house, not ......"
"Okay." Jiang Yu also rarely saw King Yeqing smile in such a low voice: "Since the Prince Regent has spoken, how dare Weichen disobey." ”
"Words are heavy." King Yeqing frowned slightly: "This king has finally experienced life and death with Jiang Xiang, and it can be regarded as a friend of life and death." You can rest assured, Jiang Xiang's affection is remembered by this king. ”
Jiang Yu glanced at Lu Yao on the side.
Lu Yao sent someone to send Ao Xuan and Princess Ting to Yeqing Palace.
King Yeqing breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'll see you on the day of condolence." ”
Jiang Yu bowed his head and separated from King Yeqing.
Gan Peilin followed behind Jiang Yu and got into the carriage together.
When the emperor dies, there will inevitably be a new situation, at this time, whether it is deep or shallow, and how to go on the road ahead, are unknown.
Gan Peilin's mind was full of the queen's insidious schemes, and his heart was particularly uneasy.
Jiang Yu saw that she was silent, and she had nothing to say.
The two men sat in the carriage, keeping a seemingly distant, but rather distant distance.
Jiang Yu never understood why she was unwilling to explain to herself since there was something else hidden in the events of that day?
Is it so hard to say a word?
As the carriage swerved into one road, it nearly crashed into another.
The body shook violently, and Gan Peilin was caught off guard and was taken into Jiang Yu's arms.
Jiang Yu naturally hugged her, without the slightest crampedness.
But Gan Peilin was embarrassed, and lowered his head and didn't say anything.
"Master, it's Princess Zhen." Lu Yao hurriedly said.
Jiang Yu let go of Gan Peilin and lifted the curtain to take a look: "Where is she going to go in such a hurry?" ”
Lu Yao hurriedly asked people to stop him.
Only then did Princess Zhen's carriage come back.
"Husband, you changed the carriage, I didn't recognize you." Zhen walked to the side of the carriage, lifted the curtain, and saw Gan Peilin sitting beside Jiang Yu without moving, and his heart suddenly rolled with jealousy.
After these days, Princess Zhen has seen a lot of abundance, and there is some flesh on her chin. It's just that the abdomen is still not very obvious, and signs of pregnancy can be seen.
"I heard that you have returned to the palace, so I hurried to see you." Zhen's face was hot, and he didn't care whether Gan Peilin was happy or not, grabbed the reins of the horse, and got into the carriage by himself.
She just sat down between Jiang Yu and Gan Peilin, and as soon as she sat down, she drilled into Jiang Yu's arms.
Gan Peilin was pushed aside by her, and she was about to be squeezed.
"Husband, I haven't seen you these days, you seem to have lost some weight." Zhen was very dissatisfied and looked at Gan Peilin sideways, and said, "If it weren't for my pregnancy and inconvenience to accompany me, I wouldn't have made my husband lose so much weight." ”
In other words, he complained that Gan Peilin did not take good care of him.
Jiang Yu was silent.
Zhen continued: "Husband, the news from the palace says that the emperor has died...... Are you in a hurry to come back at this time? In a few days, will you still go on the expedition? ”
Jiang Yu was tightly pressed by her and felt very hot. She kept talking, which made him feel very upset, and he didn't want to talk to him at all.
"The princess doesn't have to worry, the husband won't leave the imperial city for a while." Gan Peilin didn't want to squeeze her, after all, she was pregnant. "Lu Yao, stop."
Lu Yao was stunned, and didn't hear Jiang Yu speak, so he slowly stopped.
Gan Peilin finally got up, got out of the carriage, and changed to the carriage of Princess Zhen.
Lu Yao continued to drive.
Gan Peilin just left, and Princess Zhen couldn't help but feel relieved.
Jiang Yu couldn't help but hold his breath a little. Ao Xuan's incident, even if there was really Wu Wei's arrangement, she went to see him after all.
Why doesn't she have a word to show her heart herself?
Knowing that he was still angry, he didn't even want to say a soft word.
Seeing Princess Zhen coming, she even gave up her position.
What is this woman in her heart?
The more Jiang Yu thought about it, the more angry he became, but Zhen around him was still chattering. "Enough!"
He let out a cold roar.
Zhen was so frightened that his body trembled: "Husband...... Husband......"
"The emperor died, and the soldiers were lost in the war, how could I have the heart to listen to you here?" Jiang Yu frowned dissatisfiedly, and got up directly and sat beside Lu Yao.
The moment the curtain fell, Zhen's aggrieved tears fell.
What does the emperor's death have to do with her, the army is losing soldiers, what can she do as a princess?
She is the husband who wants to come back and think about it, wants to be alone with him, wants to talk to her, why has it become a sin.
Jiang Yu's face was ugly, and Lu Yao didn't dare to speak.
In addition to the horse's hooves and kicks, the wheels are rolling, and there is only the sound of the wind.
Gan Peilin was really tired and returned to the house, and Liulan was already waiting in the house.
Jiang Yu did not severely punish her for letting go of Gan Peilin, but just asked people to send her back first.
It is estimated that at that time, he was ready to send Gan Peilin back as well.
"The eldest lady is back." Liulan greeted him warmly: "Along the way, you have endured hardships." ”
With red eyes, Zhen walked beside Jiang Yu, and when he passed by Gan Peilin, he glanced at her fiercely.
"Miss, our storeroom, when you were away, was turned upside down by Princess Zhen. All the good stuff is gone. Liulan muttered quietly beside Gan Peilin: "Our yard is now destitute." Even a valuable ornament is gone. ”
"......" Gan Peilin only felt bored. In the past, I wanted to stay by Jiang Yu's side so much, just for revenge.
At this time, she almost killed Ao Sue, but she made herself covered in stains.
That's it, she felt tired at the thought of going back to this house and starting a cycle of fighting again.
"Liulan, you help me, I'm a little ......" Gan Peilin looked at the dazzling sunlight, feeling more and more dizzy.
"Ah...... Miss, what's wrong with you? As soon as Liulan reached out to help, Gan Peilin's body fell down as soon as he went limp.
Jiang Yu turned around when he heard the sound and saw Gan Peilin lying straight on Liulan's arm, and his heart tightened.
"Don't go get blood yet." He turned his head to Zhendao.
Although the voice is not loud, it is piercing when Zhen listens. "The imperial doctor said that my fetus was unstable and I couldn't take blood......"
Jiang Yu ripped off the hairpin on her sideburns, grabbed her right hand, and directly punctured her index finger.
A series of movements were extremely agile, and before Zhen had time to dodge, a red bead of blood appeared between his fingers. "Husband, you ...... Can't you feel sorry for me? ”
"Don't forget the deal between us." Jiang Yu didn't give her a good look, and took out a small medicine bottle from his waist.
This medicine is most effective when blood is taken before it is taken. Blood beads stained the pill, and he walked over to feed Gan Peilin. He then picked her up and sent her straight back to her yard.
