Chapter 84 A New Expedition!
Jiang Xinyao forced herself to calm down, staring at Wuying for a moment.
"This person is forty and eight this year, it is said that he was originally a palace maid in the Yongshou Palace, and then because the master of the Yongshou Palace was banned from the cold palace, these palace maids were affected, the younger ones were assigned to various palaces, and the older ones were directly released from the palace. In this way, Mama Bai came to serve in front of Princess Qing, and stayed for twenty-two years. Because Xu Shangshu has no parents and elders, Princess Qing was afraid that Mrs. Xu would act inappropriately, so she asked Mama Bai to follow Mrs. Xu to marry to Xu's mansion! ”
Xin Yao said thoughtfully: "'It is said', why are you so uncertain? ”
Wuying straightened up and said, "Back to grandma, some of the palace maids in the palace have heard of this person, and some have never heard of it, so the truth has not been verified for the time being." ”
Without waiting for Xin Yao to speak, Du Tianxiang said casually: "How come there is a shadow of Qingwangfu everywhere?" Annoying is not annoying! ”
Jiang Xinyao's heart moved, her eyes blinked twice, and she hurriedly said, "What happened later?" ”
After arriving at Xu's Mansion, Mama Bai gradually won the favor of Mrs. Xu, and often accompanied the left and right, and even the four big maids beside Mrs. Xu had to lean back. In the afternoon of that day, it was Mama Bai who accompanied Mrs. Xu to Xu Shangshu's study. It was also late that night that Mrs. Xu stopped and still called Mama Bai to talk. The clothes sent to Xu Shangshu the next day were also handled by Mama Bai! ”
Jiang Xinyao thought for a moment and said, "Did Mama Bai behave abnormally two days before she was killed?" ”
"Back to the eldest grandmother, there is no abnormal behavior, and she has been with Mrs. Xu, but this grandmother privately took money to inquire about the news of King Ping's poisoning twice from the brothers of the Terracotta Temple."
Du Tianxiang sneered twice and said, "It's not her master who is afraid." Only then did someone inquire about the news of King Ping. What about Yan Hongyu now? ”
Wuying said: "I was frightened, I cried non-stop, and I was coaxed into eating soothing soup last night." Finally fell asleep, but today ......"
Xin Yao immediately said: "Inform Bu San, send people to Xiao Mansion, you can't hide it." It just so happens that I want to meet it too! ”
Shadowless was about to clench his fists and come out.
"Wait, after dark, inform the Praetorian Guard. The two commanders of the Royal Guards have come to see me! ”
Shadowless was stunned and came out in response.
Du Tianxiang was puzzled: "What are you doing with this aunt?" It's not messy enough, I want Sixteen to know......"
The light in Xin Yao's eyes dimmed: "You can't ...... After all, they are husband and wife. and pregnant.
Du Tianxiang said angrily: "If it weren't for what she sent to eat on a whim, where would there be such a thing as Ah Yuan?" If you want me to say, she is the culprit. ”
Xin Yao didn't hear it, and only said lightly: "It's also a poor person!" ”
"I don't want her to come. is afraid that her body will not be able to stand it. People who are about to give birth. Great sorrow and joy must be allowed. ”
Du Tianxiang skimmed his face, a trace of worry appeared imperceptibly on his face, and he muttered a sentence in his mouth.
Jiang Xinyao was immersed in thought and did not hear Du Tianxiang's words.
"Tianxiang, I entered Beijing late, and I don't know much about the things in the palace, do you know who the master of this Yongshou Palace is?
Du Tianxiang frowned when he heard this, and thought for a moment. Cai said: "More than 20 years ago, I was still happy in my mother's belly." I also heard my grandfather talk about it occasionally. This Yongshou Palace was originally inhabited by Emperor Tianshun's favorite concubine, Yu Guifei. ”
"Jade Guifei?"
Jiang Xinyao muttered to herself.
"It's her. The Xu family was defeated back then, and they were also implicated in the matter of Concubine Yu. ”
Xin Yao's eyebrows twisted lightly and said, "Do you know how that Jade Guifei died?" ”
Du Tianxiang shook his head and sighed: "The palace is secret, how can I know?" It is said that he was confined to the cold palace and died of depression; It is said that he was poisoned by the Empress Dowager Su; There are also said that self-deprecation and death, there are all kinds of things, who can tell the truth from the false? ”
"Isn't there anyone who knows?"
Du Tianxiang closed his eyes, stroked his sore neck tiredly, and said: "The case of Yu Guifei back then was quite profound, and I guess that those who knew it had already been wiped out and met the king of Hades. ”
Xin Yaoqi said: "Doesn't that Yu Guifei still have a son and a daughter, are they all dead?" ”
Du Tianxiang sighed heavily and said: "With Empress Dowager Su's means, how can they be allowed to live/cousin-in-law, ask what these people are doing, and they can't fight together with eight poles." ”
Xin Yao frowned and wrinkled a few points and said, "I can't say it, I always feel that some things are really coincidental." The Xu family was implicated because of the Yongshou Palace, but now the palace maid of the Yongshou Palace has come to the Xu family to educate the grandmother. ”
Du Tianxiang said disapprerovingly: "What's the coincidence? The people who came out of the palace both knew the rules and had eyes, and they were all extremely powerful people. The princes don't rush to ask for it. ”
Xin Yao raised her eyebrows, undeniable, but doubted: "There are so many nurturing grandmothers in King Qing's mansion, why do you refer to Bai Mama." Could it be that a grandmother came out of the palace in Qingwangfu? ”
Du Tianxiang rolled his eyes, and was about to reply, when he heard Xin Yao say: "Why don't you give it early, don't give it late, I want Yan Hongyu to marry into the Xu Mansion before I order people over." Could it be that there is something special about this white mama? ”
……
"Besides, a grandmother in the inner house, who has neither enemies nor enemies, who wants to kill her?"
……
"It's said that killing people kills people, could it be that she did something unseemly, or did she know too much?"
……
A series of questions asked Du Tianxiang where he could answer, and he hugged his head in pain.
The room fell silent for a moment.
Jiang Xinyao's face was solemn and fell into deep thought.
……
On the third day of the ninth month half a year after the new emperor ascended the throne, two major events occurred in Beijing on this day. First, King Han and Empress Dowager Su died, and then Cheng Da gathered neighboring dogs to rebel.
The nobles with sharp noses, the family smelled the smell of bloody wind and rain, and sent people to the street to inquire about the news.
In the morning of this day, the new emperor sat in the court in plain clothes, looking at the civil and military officials who were arguing with the next one, and his gentle face showed a sharp expression for the first time.
Cabinet Zhang Hua walked out slowly, and said with a sad look in his eyes: "King Han, the queen mother has passed away one after another, and rumors have spread in Beijing, saying that the emperor has a cruel temperament and kills his brother and mother. Heaven is intolerable, the emperor always has to give an explanation to the people of the world! ”
King Fu's gloomy gaze swirled around Zhang Hua, and he said with a sly smile: "Your Majesty." What Lord Zhang said was very true, and the courtiers also heard that King Han did not die of illness, but was murdered to death, and asked the emperor to solve the doubts of the courtiers. ”
The two people who spoke the most in the court suddenly challenged the new emperor, and the hundred officials held their breath and watched the situation change.
The corners of the new emperor's mouth flashed with coldness, and he suddenly raised his hand. Pointing to the military department Shangshu Shi Jie.
Shi Jie took a step forward and said with red eyes: "Your Majesty, Cheng Da, the deputy general of the Chinese army, gathered the neighboring dogs. Rebelled. Sixty-eight soldiers of the Chinese army were killed, and the young son of the minister was also among them. The Chinese army has 150,000 horses and 50,000 horses and dogs, divided into two routes. Advance to my Southern Yan Kingdom. Emperor. The Southern Yan Kingdom is in danger! ”
The civil and military officials gasped in shock.
The new emperor shouted: "Spread Xiao Han!" ”
Li Zonggui hurriedly screamed: "Command Xiao of the Soldier Horse Temple to meet you!" ”
Xiao Han was dressed in a military uniform, his face was cold and handsome, he strode in, knelt down, took out a letter from his arms and presented it, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this is the letter between King Han and the outside world intercepted by the Terracotta Temple. ”
Li Zonggui took the letter and turned around and handed it to the new emperor.
Xintiq shook his hand. He pointed to the two people in front of the hall.
Li Zonggui trotted down the steps and handed the letter to King Fu.
King Fu looked at the new emperor hesitantly. Zhan Xin looked at it, his face changed greatly, his teeth were clucking, and after a while, he handed the letter to Zhang Hua.
However, after a while, the old man, who had always been calm, also changed his face, took a few steps back, and the letter paper in his hand suddenly fell, and he was immediately stunned.
The Manchu officials stared at the falling letterhead, secretly wondering what was written on the paper.
Shi Shangshu was puzzled: "Dare to ask the boss, what's wrong with the letter?" ”
Zhang Hua slowly turned his face and stared at Shi Shangshu for a long time, as if he had a thousand words, but only turned into a deep sigh.
The new emperor sneered: "Commander Xiao, you can solve the doubts for the ministers!" ”
Xiao Han coughed lightly when he heard this, got up and said, "Back to the emperor, this letter is the handwriting of King Han, and the letter is written to the Sovereign of Inurong." ”
Dog Jung Monarch?
Treason with the enemy?
The short words shocked the ministers, but before they could calm down, the new emperor waved his hand again, and Li Zonggui said sharply: "Xuan Li Fu is here!" ”
I saw that Li Fu was dressed in filial piety clothes, holding a brocade box in both hands and entering the palace, kneeling on the ground and holding the brocade box high above his head and said: "Your Majesty, there is the last pen of the first emperor in the brocade box!" ”
The new emperor glanced at King Fu coldly and said, "Just ask King Fu to read the edict of the first emperor!" ”
King Fu slowly opened the edict, only to feel that the cold was pressing.
"King Han, kill!"
In just four words, the kneeling ministers were terrified and shuddered.
The new emperor stood slowly, and the gaze that fell on the ministers was as cold as a blade.
"The death of the first emperor began with King Han and began with the Su family. The first emperor was merciful, although he was heartbroken, he still told me to take care of the feelings of brotherhood and the same root, and treat them kindly.
However, the king of Han collaborated with the enemy and treason, united with the Chinese army Cheng Da, gathered 50,000 dogs and soldiers and horses, and approached the capital, thousands of troops and horses, women, children and children died tragically under the enemy's iron cavalry. ”
If I still care about my siblings and treat them with kindness, how can I explain to the people of the world? How to explain to the tragic death of the border soldiers!
King Han was indeed killed by me, but I have no regrets! As for the Queen Mother, she heard about King Han, she was lifeless, and she volunteered to die, and she left a suicide note. ”
His tone was heavy and sad, his face was sad and angry, and his deep voice sounded again.
"In order to cover up what Zhang Feizhen did, King Ping was poisoned two days ago and has not woken up yet. There are many swords and halberds outside the city, soldiers and horses are like mountains, the Southern Yan Kingdom is in danger, and when I draw my sword in blood, I will retreat from the strong enemy, and I will ask for guilt in front of the tomb of the first emperor! ”
"Your Majesty...... The emperor drove the expedition in person, absolutely not! Zhang Hua looked dignified and shouted.
Hundreds of officials said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, don't do it!" (To be continued.) )
