Chapter VII Zhenguo Gong

Throughout the ages, gossip has always been an interest that can be in the bones of human beings.

The gossip of the royal and noble people is even more exciting.

Recently, the gossip in the palace has shifted from the discord between the two concubines to the noble queen mother.

"Don't you know, Your Majesty can't leave the queen mother for a moment now, not only at Fengyi Palace at night, but also in front of the mother during the day!"

"Isn't the queen the queen the harem alone?"

"But isn't it, since Your Majesty ascended the throne, I have never seen that concubine have been so favored."

"I don't care who is favored, but if the queen is so favored, won't there be a little prince soon?"

"That's right, I hope the queen will be a man in one fell swoop!"

……

Ingki: Thank you, but no.

Sure enough, gossip is the essence of human beings, and the things in the palace should only be circulated in the inner palace, but I can't help but want to tell people who don't know if I know the secret.

Yingxi: "No! How can you criticize the royal family so much, I will go to the Inspectorate to investigate, and be sure to return the capital to a clean one! As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and was about to go out.

Emperor Xuanwu said idly: "It's to return you to clean." ”

Ying Xi paused, and looked back at Emperor Xuanwu wearing a light green curly robe, accompanied by cold makeup, and the whole person was full of aggression, like a queen, leaning on the collapse, gently scraping the teacup.

The sound of porcelain colliding seemed to remind her to answer well and be careful of the dog's life.

Yingxi coughed and walked back: "Isn't it for the sake of your reputation?" In all dynasties, which Ming monarch favored the queen alone? ”

Emperor Xuanwu nodded and took a sip of tea: "That's right, the faint monarch is the only one who favors the concubine." “

I can't answer this, the emperor has suffered greatly from the concubine before, and now it is simply a suicide to say that the concubine is dead.

Yingxi changed the subject: "They also said that the queen is going to give birth, how can they talk about the matter of the emperor's heir?" ”

Emperor Xuanwu gave Yingxi an approving look: "That's right, the imperial heir is indeed not to be discussed, and it is not the queen's fault that the harem has no children." Then let Zhang Zhong give an order to the Inspectorate, saying that the queen has worked hard to take care of the harem, and she is temporarily unable to give birth to an heir, and the people are not allowed to talk about it. “

Yingxi: "......" I really want to ask Emperor Xuanwu if he particularly wants her to die, how can there be such a joke, does she still want to be a generation of virtuous queens!

Angry, his courage became bigger, and he snorted: "Do you want the queen to give birth to an heir immediately?" If this is what you ask, I can meet you~~" With a lewd smile, he is a street bully.

Emperor Xuanwu, a woman from a good family who was bullied by bullies, said: "If you have the courage, you can come." ”

Ying Xi she, she, she didn't have the guts.

What the hell is going on, since the last time she and the emperor had a disagreement over Dong Fang's affairs, he was like turning on some switch, and he ridiculed him when he had the opportunity, and he beat around the bush to make her unhappy in the palace.

Yes, the emperor actually learned to speak about the palace! Although it was only said when the two of them were there, it was enough to shock Yingxi. This damn swapping body won't lead the emperor's cosmicity out, right? It's scary!

And this kind of shameful title, how can people respond!

But the culprit seemed to be enjoying it, hum, this emperor is definitely a cat, and he doesn't know what makes him happy, so he is happy to see her expression out of control.

Yingxi: "Hmph, I don't have the guts, what can you do with me?" "Anyway, there is nothing big in the court now, just say a few words, Yingxi is not afraid of revealing the stuffing.

More than a month has passed since the Dong Fang corruption case, and the two lost silver have been recovered sixty percent, and the rest is according to what the emperor said, let the household department find a way to solve it, and then the emperor's private treasury will pay a sum of money, and first purchase all the winter clothes of the soldiers and send them to the border pass.

This move can be called a clever trick to buy people's hearts, and when the soldiers at the border pass heard about this, they immediately knelt down and bowed three heads in the direction of the capital, saying that they would defend the border pass to the death.

In the future, the expenditure of military salaries must be reconciled by both the household department and the military department, and there must be witnesses to confirm that the funds can be appropriated.

It seems that he is really scared.

In short, the four seas are leveling, and on the surface, the country is peaceful and peaceful.

After the two finished arguing, they each occupied a sofa and closed their eyes to recuperate.

At this time, Lan Ying entered the door and whispered in the ear of Emperor Xuanwu: "Niangniang, Zhenguo Gong asks to see." ”

The voice was not loud, but Yingxi still heard it, and she opened her eyes to see that Emperor Xuanwu was also looking at her.

Emperor Xuanwu waved his hand, let Lan Ying go down, and said: "Zhenguo Gong has always been steady, and there must be something important to ask for at this moment. ”

Yingxi nodded: "My father came to see me in person, I shouldn't want my mother to know and worry, you go, I don't get along with my father much, just be dignified and steady." ”

Emperor Xuanwu got up, cleaned up, and left with Lan Ying.

Yingxi was idle alone, and Xuan Zhangzhong came to see him and asked, "Have you found any traces of Dong Wang's family?" ”

Zhang Zhong: "Not yet, Your Majesty, the direction this person walked before he disappeared was to the northwest, didn't he go to King Ping?" ”

Yingxi shook her head and didn't speak. After a while, he asked, "What about Dong Fang?" Raiding his home and going to the official, where else is he going? ”

Zhang Zhong said: "The slave was about to talk about this, and Dong Fang went to Liu Ying to see Lord Liu's mansion, and it seemed that he was a gentleman." ”

Yingxi was stunned: "Liu Yingkan actually has such a belly?" Don't you want to lynch in the house, do you? ”

Zhang Zhong: "I don't know about this minion, Lord Liu has always been very strict with his family, and he can't inquire about the affairs of the house." ”

Yingxi: "It's a miracle, okay, you can go down." ”

Ying Xi thought about it, she still had to discuss it with Emperor Xuanwu, she always felt that Dong Fang's mother was not simple, and it was estimated that there would be some moths.

On the other side, Emperor Xuanwu cautiously met with the Duke of Zhenguo.

The old man has reached the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, and seeing that his daughter is also kind and kind, he has restrained the murderous aura experienced on the battlefield, and he looks soft and safe.

Zhenguo Gong said kindly: "A-Ying, how are you doing lately?" ”

Emperor Xuanwu learned from Yingxi's appearance, lowered his eyes and said: "Everything is fine, don't worry about father." ”

Zhen Guogong smiled, and seemed to be a little happy: "A-Ying, there have been many rumors in the capital recently, and my father naturally won't believe them, but rumors are spreading, and my father is very worried about you." ”

The truth of what he said was true, and Emperor Xuanwu's originally tense nerves were also calmed down.

He said: "Father, rest assured, the rumors will not hurt me, and Your Majesty will not be angry with me." ”

Hearing this, Zhen Guogong's smile obviously widened.

"Really? I'm relieved, but then again, A-Ying, you should have a child, don't you know, I heard people say that the queen was about to give birth, and I thought it was really there, so I didn't fall asleep happily, and when I got up the next day, I was scolded by your mother, saying that I listened to rumors, hey, my heart. This passage is very vivid.

Emperor Xuanwu: ...... I always feel that it is not the same as the town of the court and the prince.

Zhen Guogong continued: "Later, I also thought about it, the matter of children is important in fate, but your status is noble, and it is better to have a child, and in the future, when your father is gone, you also have a hope." “

Emperor Xuanwu was unhappy, and said this as if Yingxi had no husband.

"Dad came this time mainly to tell you that Dad received a report from the front line, near Jiuyuan, where your eldest brother was guarding, suddenly a group of soldiers and horses camped, and now there is no change, but according to your eldest brother's informant, it is estimated that the fight will start."

Emperor Xuanwu frowned: "But the barbarians want to attack Jiuyuan?" ”

Zhen Guogong: "Haha, A-Ying knows a lot." Hey, that's right, I guess there's going to be a war. Approaching winter, the barbarians estimate that there is not enough food this year, and these barbarians, as long as their own tribe lacks food and clothing, will come to our border to fight the autumn wind. However, there are a lot of soldiers and horses gathered this time, and my father is afraid that there will be any changes, so I want to ask Your Majesty tomorrow to allow me to lead troops to support. Dad is leaving, and I don't know when I will be able to come back, I want to say a few words to you before leaving. ”

Emperor Xuanwu: "Father, please speak." ”

Zhenguo Gong's hair already has a white head, his rough and dry hand holds Emperor Xuanwu's hand, and he can feel the callouse in his palm, he cautiously smiled at Yingxi: "A-Ying, Dad knows that it was not what you wanted to marry the royal back then, and it has not been good in the past few years, but people, you still have to look forward, life is unsatisfactory nine times out of ten, Dad is most worried about you being depressed and unhappy, annoying Your Majesty, Dad can't protect you." ”

These words fell on Emperor Xuanwu's heart, and it was like a slap in the face.

She really didn't like me, she didn't want to marry me.

For the first time, the thought came to his mind so clearly.

He remembered that he had recently wanted to pour out his love to Yingxi, but was interrupted; He had a lot of preference for Concubine Shu before, and she was never unhappy; Even earlier, their unhappy wedding night......

It turned out that I was really self-inflicted.

Zhenguo Gong was still chattering: "Dad knows that you are filial, and he doesn't want His Majesty to blame us, so he didn't resist the decree, hey, you are too filial." Dad felt guilty, and promised you a long time ago to let you recruit a son-in-law at home and not interfere in your marriage, but finally married to the highest family in the world......

Emperor Xuanwu is the emperor in the end, and he quickly calmed down after being sad, and realized that he had used the wrong method before, Hua Yingxi She is just an abacus bead, and she is still too subtle.

Now that I think about it, the reason why Yingxi refused was not because he didn't understand the customs, but because he didn't dare to accept it, and he had concerns in his heart.

He figured it out, it's useless to be negative and frustrated, since there is still a queen in his heart, he still has to find a way to get the queen's heart, and angering is all done by the weak.

Once the same, Emperor Xuanwu was impatient to listen to the town prince here, seeing that the country's eyes were about to fall, he told Lan Ying to go to the tea, and with the help of handing the tea, he urged: "Father, there is no need to say more about these words, the time is not early, you should go home early." “

The old prince did not doubt him, and realized that he had said too much, so he immediately said: "The minister is retiring, take care, Niangniang." ”

Emperor Xuanwu looked at the back of the old prince, and his lips slowly hooked.

Hua Yingxi, I don't believe that you are not interested in me at all, let's come to Japan for a long time.
