Chapter 342: Tea Entertainment Tavern Gossip

On the way back to Beijing, Yan Qingyu and An Wanqing heard a sensational news, and the spread of this news was no less than that of Emperor Jing'an's canonization of Xue Guifei that day, that is, the prince who was about to be confused was deposed and imprisoned.

After a few days of driving, they came to the town of Linjing, and the two found a place to stay, sat down in an ordinary teahouse, and ordered a few side dishes casually.

"Hey, have you heard, the crown prince was deposed by His Majesty." The man sitting at the dining table next to him said to several people dressed as scholars sitting across from him.

Hearing what the person at the opposite table said, Yan Qingyu and An Wanqing were stunned for a moment, and glanced at each other, both surprised.

The crown prince was deposed?

Although His Majesty's dissatisfaction with Nangong Mo is getting stronger and stronger, he has never had the idea of deposing his crown prince, when we left Beijing that day, Nangong Mo was still locked up in the East Palace to think, and now after a month or two, he was actually deposed by His Majesty?

"In the past, it was a prince who was above 10,000 people under one person, and he was so beautiful, but now, he is not as good as an ordinary prince, I heard that he was not only deposed, but also expelled from the imperial family. And I also heard that this waste prince seems to be imprisoned in the Imperial Palace. The scholar in blue said.

"Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, who would have thought that the dignified prince would one day fall into the situation of being a prisoner? Not only was he deposed, but he was also imprisoned in the Emperor's Mansion for the rest of his life, and the royal family was really ruthless. The gray-clothed scholar said.

"This waste prince is really enough to die, he has been a prince for twenty or thirty years, how good do you think he is to keep himself, he has to toss blindly, if he waits for a few more years, won't this world be his? I can only blame himself, I heard that he has done a lot of immoral things, selling fake salt, accepting bribes, and forming a party in private, how can Your Majesty not be angry? The blue-clothed scholar said.

"In my opinion, the position of the prince of the abolished prince is already in jeopardy, and he is a moth by himself, so it is only a matter of time before he is deposed." The middle-aged man drinking tea at the opposite table interjected.

Several scholars turned their heads to look at him.

"What do you mean by that?" The man in blue said.

"Think about it, today's court has a very clear position, the third prince, the fifth prince and several other princes, which one doesn't want the abolished prince to fall early? The abolished prince is isolated, how can one person fight others? The middle-aged man said.

"But speaking of which, I can't complain about others, this abolished prince should have been abolished."

"Yes, first he was locked up in the East Palace by His Majesty for selling fake salt, and now he has been charged with all kinds of crimes, big and small, His Majesty is angry, and it is no wonder that he is not wasted."

"I have a relative who lives in the capital, yesterday came to my house to visit relatives, I heard her say, this waste prince because of the fake salt case, was locked up in the East Palace by His Majesty, at this time, how can other princes sit still, must join hands to step on the waste prince, as if the third prince found out some evidence of the waste prince, it just so happened that at this juncture, General Ma, who was far away in Jincheng, suddenly played a book about the abolished prince to His Majesty, and His Majesty was furious, so he imprisoned the abolished prince in the Emperor's Mansion." The man at the other table said.

When An Wanqing and Yan Qingyu heard this, they glanced at each other again, then lowered their heads again and continued to eat.

"I didn't expect this General Ma to move quite fast. However, this prince is to blame, and it is okay to abolish it. An Wanqing pouted and whispered.

"Your Majesty can make up your mind to depose the crown prince, thinking that Your Majesty is really completely angry with this Nangong Mo." Yan Qingyu is not salty or light.

"The tree fell down and everyone pushed it, the last time the prince was locked up, the other princes naturally struck while the iron was hot, and took the opportunity to step on him again, under all kinds of suppression, the prince who was once high above was completely defeated......" Speaking of this, An Wanqing sighed lightly, shook her head slightly and said: "It's just that I was imprisoned in the Emperor's Mansion for the rest of my life...... The heavenly family is really ruthless......"

"If Your Majesty is affectionate, then the governor will feel strange." The corners of Yan Qingyu's mouth hooked a sad sneer.

"There has been a lot of royal gossip recently, some time ago, the people were rumoring that the beautiful Xue Guifei had happened, and now there is another matter of abolishing the prince, I don't know what will happen next time?" The shopkeeper said with a smile while making tea for everyone.

"The woman who was canonized as Xue Guifei as soon as she entered the palace, oops, this thing is even more exciting than the abolished prince, Your Majesty is crazy." The man in gray said.

An Wanqing and Yan Qingyu were stunned for a moment, and instinctively pricked up their ears, both of them were curious.

"Speaking of this Xue Guifei, it's really an unheard of strange thing, have you heard of it? When His Majesty canonized Xue Guifei, he also let the people of every household in the capital put up lanterns for three days and three nights, but unfortunately we are not from the capital, so we can't see such a red scene. The man in blue said.

"But no, this matter has long been spread all over the streets and alleys, and I heard that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty have a lot of complaints about Your Majesty, but Your Majesty has no choice but to follow the devil." The man in gray said.

"The capital is full of lights? Is there such a thing? An Wanqing was taken aback, and couldn't help but look back at the people who were chatting happily next to her.

"That's right, you haven't heard of the sensational things in the capital, right? It's been a while and it's been a household name. The man in blue looked at An Wanqing strangely, with a look on his face Why are you so lonely.

An Wanqing smiled awkwardly, and hurriedly made an excuse: "My brother and I came from Diancheng to visit relatives, and you also know that Diancheng is a small county town and far away from the capital, but I really haven't heard anything about Your Majesty marrying Xue Guifei." ”

The crowd ignored her and continued to chat.

"How could Your Majesty canonize a noble concubine with great fanfare? The people of the capital were also ordered to put up lanterns for three days and three nights? Aren't the people here spreading falsehood? An Wanqing lowered her voice and questioned Yan Qingyu in a low voice.

"This town is not far from the capital, and it stands to reason that the gossip that the people are full of wine and food should have some basis." Yan Qingyu frowned.

"Emperor Jing'an is ruthless and ruthless, but he is also the most famous generation of overlords in the history of the Southern Zhao Kingdom, how can he work so hard for a woman?" An Wanqing grinned.

Yan Qingyu was stunned for a moment, suddenly thought of something, frowned slightly, and said: "Speaking of this, it reminds me of one thing......"

"Huh?" An Wanqing raised her eyes to look at him.

Yan Qingyu told her about the last time she saw several princes in the Dragon Bedroom Palace, asking His Majesty to cancel the triennial draft, and said thoughtfully: "Perhaps, Your Majesty probably met the woman in the portrait." ”

"Huh?" An Wanqing was dumbfounded, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva in shock, if Yan Qingyu hadn't told her in person, she would definitely not believe that Emperor Jing An was such an infatuated person.

"If it weren't for Ben Tu seeing it with his own eyes and being slapped by him, Ben Tu wouldn't have believed that he was so ruthless and ruthless that he would be so obsessed with a deceased woman." Yan Qingyu frowned slightly.

"It's really ......," An Wanqing grinned.
