Chapter 570: Letter from Qi State
He's dead? ”
Wen Ling looked at Rong Bing in surprise.
The incident happened in the afternoon, and Shou Sui naturally reported the matter to Gu Xun, but not long after Wen Ling left, Gu Xun sent Rong Bing to the Internal Affairs Mansion, wanting Shayu to identify the two eunuchs who committed the crime.
But who knows, when he went to the Internal Affairs Office, Ning Xi came forward and took the initiative to admit his mistake.
said that the harem has always been strictly managed, and he didn't want to produce such a pickled person, and when he heard the news, he ordered a strict investigation.
Who knew that the two eunuchs were afraid of things and severe punishment, so they just knocked themselves to death.
The two corpses, before Gu Xun could trace them, the Internal Affairs Office gave an explanation.
"And that's how it goes?" Wen Ling asked.
"No, His Royal Highness has ordered that the enthronement ceremony and canonization ceremony are imminent, and the harem must be strictly investigated to ensure that there will be no problems with the new queen." Rong Bing replied, "At least for a short time, the harem will definitely be settled, and there will be no more things out of the cabinet." ”
"Hmm......" Wen Ling nodded, "It's hard work to run away from the guards." ”
"Subordinates should."
After Rong Bing left, Xianqin and Yi Yu came in to serve, Yi Yu took the ointment, "The princess didn't say where the injury on this hand came from, but now it seems to be related to His Highness." ”
The string piano prescribed the medicine, and the medicine smelled bright.
Wen Ling's arm was bruised, and it didn't hurt if he didn't bump it, but it looked a little intimidating on his snow-white arm.
Xianqin took a ball of ointment and smeared it on Wen Ling, "The princess has something on her mind these days, and she hasn't told the slaves and maids, but the princess has grown up and has her own arrangements, and the slaves and maids are not worried." ”
Yi Yu nodded on the side, "That's right, the princess is smart, and we won't suffer any losses." ”
It was as if he were calculating something.
"There are some things that I can't tell you now, but you will know later, you just need to remember that after entering the palace, don't make a fuss about whatever happens." Wen Ling thought for a moment and reminded vaguely.
"Yes."
The two should go down.
Now there are a lot of things in the court, and the affairs of the harem are not enough for Gu Xun to worry about, but now the harem has something to do with the affairs of the court, so Gu Xun also had to give an order to clear the harem.
The guards searched the inner palace and disposed of anything unsightly found in the eunuch's room.
Although everyone has been extremely restrained and carefully hidden, it is too late to do so.
A lot of people were arrested in the inner palace, and several pairs of palace people were recruited under severe punishment.
If you want to talk about the situation in the harem of the Jin Kingdom now, that is, the harem has no owner, and the Jin Emperor has no intention of being a woman, but after entering the palace, it is decades of loneliness, plus the eunuchs under Kang Yi have so many rights, and they also coerce Gali to induce the palace maids to compromise and eat with them in private, all the reasons are because of the Jin Emperor's negligence in the harem, so the current situation will appear.
Although it has been rectified for a short time, most of the people are still hiding, and it takes time and effort to really clean up the harem.
Wen Ling was in the embassy, and Rong Qing did not return to Gu Xun to serve, but only intermittently sent news from the palace to Wen Ling.
In mid-June, Huo Qing personally led his troops to send the bodies of the first emperor and "Gu Xun" to the emperor's tomb.
When they set out, the people all knelt down to see each other off.
Not long after the departure, in the afternoon of the same day, there was a message that sent two letters, one to the palace and one to the embassy.
Wen Ling, who received the letter, was so excited that he almost didn't jump up, "Brother Huang is coming!" ”
Xianqin and Yi Yu were both stunned, "Is the prince going to the Qi Kingdom?" ”
"Hmmm! The matter of Tuyuhun has come to an end, but in the closing stage, now only the Jin Kingdom and the Qi State are left, and the final process of dividing Tuyuhun is left...... Gu Rin's enthronement ceremony, Qi Guo will also give gifts. Wen Ling smiled, "However, if it is just a division ordinance, you can send the ministers here, and the imperial brother must be worried about me because he is worried about me." ”
Wen Ling still remembers that when she left, Yu Wenhao had promised her.
If she is not happy, he will come back and bring her home.
Perhaps because of this sentence, Wen Ling has always felt that she has a way out, she is the princess of Great Qi, Qi is her home, and what about the Jin Kingdom, no one can move her, otherwise she wants to cause a war between the two countries of Qi and Jin.
"However, in July this year, isn't the emperor's birthday also coming, isn't the crown prince also going to ascend the throne?" Xianqin remembered something.
According to the usual practice, this year is also the time when Yuwen Hao ascends the throne, and Yuwen Xu is half a hundred.
Wen Ling remembered, hurriedly looked at the letter, and blinked, "It's postponed, because of the division of the Tuyuhun land, the imperial brother needs to go to the Jin Kingdom in person to discuss the division, so the matter of the emperor's uncle's throne has been postponed for a year." Pander to...... Sister Ah is pregnant again, and according to the time when the letter was sent, it has been two months now......"
"That's it!" Yi Yu was slightly surprised, and said after a while, "The king, the queen, and the crown prince have been thinking about the princess." ”
"Yes, I just hope that the royal brother must be careful along the way, the identity of the imperial brother is different from others." Wen Ling prayed silently.
I probably also know why the imperial brother can come in person now, last year Sister gave birth to the eldest son for the imperial brother, and was made the eldest grandson of the emperor after birth, and the prince of Qi is no longer the only royal brother, so the imperial brother can leave the Qi country without worries, and at this time, the imperial brother heard the news of Gu Xun's death and knew that she was going to marry "Gu Rin", so he specially came to support her.
For more than a year, she has been away from her hometown and exchanged letters, Wen Ling has long been unable to say what she feels in her heart, and now that Yu Wenhao is coming, she has a feeling that she has never left home, her father, queen mother, and royal brother are all thinking about her.
There was a knock on the door.
"Princess, the prime minister's wife asks to see the princess."
"Huh?" Wen Ling frowned.
"The post-sealing ceremony is about to be held, and the prime minister's wife said that there is a gift for the princess." Rong Qing has dealt with the aftermath of "Gu Xun", and now Rong Qing also knows that Gu Xun is now pretending to be Gu Rin, and there are many things to be secretly investigated, so he is also waiting by Wen Ling's side.
"Let her in." Wen Ling faintly guessed why the Zhai clan came from.
Today, the news of Qi Guo just came, and when he thought about it, Prime Minister Du couldn't hold it back.
In fact, Wen Ling didn't have time to tell Gu Xun that she had an intersection with the Prime Minister's Mansion in private, but now Gu Xun wants to catch Du Zhong's handle, and the fastest way is to break into the interior of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but before Wen Ling did it first, Zhai sent it to the door by himself.
"The courtiers have seen the princess." When the otaku came in, he also looked dignified and elegant.
Although there is politeness and etiquette in his eyes, he always gives people a sense of alienation, and in comparison, Song has a gentle temperament that is very attractive.
"The Prime Minister's wife is here today, I don't know what is the matter?"
Zhai smiled, "There is still half a month to be the queen ceremony, then the princess is the queen of a country, before the princess loved, help the dog, the princess is kind to the prime minister, now the princess will enter the harem, the courtiers are here to say hello to the princess." ”
Wen Ling was embarrassed to say this.
This is a forcible relationship.
However, Wen Ling didn't show it in front of her, and she thought about what gift this Prime Minister's Mansion would give her?
The Jin State has been fighting all year round, the tax revenue is limited, the treasury is empty, and the courtier's fortune is not as good as the Qi State.
Wen Ling thought so in his heart, who would have thought that in the box sent by the Zhai family, there were two ugly clay dolls.
Crooked melons and cracked dates, one holding a sword, his eyes and nose are all pasted.
"This ...... What is it? Wen Ling frowned, and he really couldn't tell if this thing was from anyone's handwriting.
It's like some kid pinching it casually.
Zhai sighed, "This is pinched by His Royal Highness II." ”
Wen Ling was stunned.
Gu Xun pinched?
Wen Ling couldn't help but look at the clay figure, one big and one small.
The big cold face looks serious, while the villain is probably because of the small person, and the face is squeezed together.
Why did Gu Xun make himself so ugly?
Wen Ling wanted to laugh a little, but as soon as this thought came out, his face was a little tense.
But as soon as he looked up, he saw Zhai looking at him like that, and said softly, "His Royal Highness Second has liked the eldest prince since he was a child, but the eldest prince has been sensible since he was a child and never responds, and my husband also grew up watching His Royal Highness." ”
Wen Ling suddenly realized something, pulled over his sleeve, touched the clay figure with one hand, and touched his arm with the other hand and twisted it fiercely.
Wen Ling made a ruthless move, and in an instant, he rolled his painful tears, but he let go just right and didn't let the tears roll down.
“…… The Prime Minister's Mansion is very familiar with Ah Xun......"
Wen Ling sniffed, with a slightly nasal voice.
This kind of front foot is still smiling, and the back foot is red, and the house is stunned for a moment.
But I secretly wrote it down in my heart.
"It's the sin of the people's women who has provoked the princess's sadness......" The Zhai clan, who reacted, hurriedly knelt down towards Wen Ling, "Please also ask the princess not to blame, the deceased has passed away." ”
"It's fine." Wen Ling said softly, wiping his eyes with his sleeve with one hand.
It hurts, it really hurts.
But with her talent, she can sing with two big brushes.
Wen Ling boasted to himself in his heart, and on his face, he looked at Wen Ling and laughed and then cried, crying and rubbing back and forth in his hand with the ugly clay figure, this scene is really complicated.
"The husband knows the relationship between the princess and the second highness, the second highness has suffered since childhood, and it is a pity for the husband to have this fateless marriage. In half a month, the princess will enter the palace, and then she will be the mother of a country in the Jin Kingdom, and the husband will want to give this thing to the princess. The Jin Kingdom respects His Royal Highness, but few people remember His Royal Highness, but only the princess can take His Royal Highness to heart, and she also counts His Royal Highness's wishes. "Zhai's words are extremely sincere.
To be honest, if Gu Xun was really dead, Wen Ling would definitely feel emotional when he heard these words.
But Gu Xun didn't die.
Since people are alive, how strange these words are to hear.
But after a moment, Wen Ling remembered Du Yong's words and reacted, Zhai was afraid that he was not thinking about Gu Xun's wishes, but wanted to add a knot between her and "Gu Rin".
