Wu Weihou came to the main hall, and after stepping into the door, Hua Yan saw him and understood why Liu Fuxiang abandoned the young Su Ziqi and turned to his father's arms.

Wu Weihou was wearing a dark brocade robe, his appearance was first-class and good, his body was like a sword that was polished and sealed, and his breath was hidden but not revealed, which made people shake three times when they saw his shape.

She also heard of Wu Weihou's reputation.

Like Jing Guogong, he led his troops to fight and killed decisively. Although it is now a peaceful and prosperous era, the heroic appearance of the year has not been buried. He is more powerful than Jing Guogong, not only can lead troops to fight, but he is also proficient in the art of being an official.

Therefore, from top to bottom of the government and the opposition, if it is said that Zhao Zaifu has a huge foundation and protégés everywhere, then Wuweihou's foundation is not shallow.

Especially his mother is still the emperor's aunt, he and the emperor are cousins, not to mention, but also with the emperor became a brother-in-law, Wuwei Hou Mansion can be said to be tightly tied to the imperial power, is the most prominent mansion in addition to the East Palace.

When Yun Chi saw him, he had to give up three points, especially since Wu Weihou had military power in his hands.

The military power of Southern Chu was divided into four, and the emperor grabbed a share, and after Yun Chi was in charge of the country, that part of the military power was given to Yun Chi. Marquis Wuwei grabbed one, Jingguo Gong held one, and the other was in the hands of King Anyang.

King Anyang is not a military general, but a civil official, but because of the trust of Taizu, he is in charge of a group of soldiers and horses.

When Liu Fuxiang saw Wuwei Hou, she immediately greeted her at the door, "Master Hou, are you back?" The concubine invited the crown princess to come to the mansion as a guest, but she didn't think about it, but she ......" She spoke, looking at Hua Yan, and the meaning was self-evident.

Since Wu Weihou returned home, he naturally knew what happened in Xiangshui River, nodded, and also looked at Hua Yan.

Hua Yan stood up slowly, blessed with a blessing, and said with a shallow smile, "I have long heard the name of the Hou Ye, and I came to the house today to disturb me." ”

Wu Weihou looked at the flowers, the woman is twenty-eight years old, her appearance is beautiful, her posture is unparalleled, she is wearing a light blue brocade silk Luo long skirt, the skirt is wrapped around the branches and begonias lifelike, there is not too much jewelry around the body, there is a sense of plain elegance, but her appearance is very dazzling and bright, so she also appropriately hides some plain light, which makes people see that it is not thick or light, but it is pleasing to the eye.

He nodded darkly, and said in a deep voice, "The crown princess came to the mansion as a guest, and it is a matter of the Hou Mansion's prosperity. No need to be polite. ”

Hua Yan smiled and nodded, and sat down again.

The fifth prince, the eleventh prince and others stood up to greet the Marquis of Wuwei.

Wu Weihou glanced at everyone, bowed his head one by one, and after greeting for a while, Liu Fuxiang couldn't help but go straight to the point, and couldn't wait to say that Dr. Sun had seen the symptoms of Lin'an Huayan.

Wu Weihou listened, "Oh? He seemed to be very surprised, "There is such a thing?" ”

Liu Fuxiang said softly, "Master Hou doesn't believe it, you can ask Dr. Sun, he is here." ”

Doctor Sun hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "Back to the Hou Ye, the old man doesn't dare to deceive, the crown princess has this disease, and it seems that she was brought from her mother's womb since birth." ”

Wu Weihou looked at Hua Yan when he heard this.

Hua Yan nodded, "That's right, this disease was brought with me from birth, but I didn't get sick or sick after I was born, and I didn't find it." Three years ago, I happened to meet someone from the Valley of Divine Medicine, and it happened that I had a little typhoid fever at that time, so he asked for a pulse for me, and before I could think about it, I learned that there was such a disease hidden in my body, and there was no way to save it. ”

"I learned three years ago, why did I enter the roster of concubines? It stands to reason that this is not optional. Wu Weihou asked in a deep voice.

Hua Yan smiled, "When the Hou Ye didn't return to the house earlier, I had already solved everyone's doubts on this matter. The Queen Mother's decree is difficult, even if the Hua family says that I have something unspeakable, I can't bypass the imperial power above my head, and the imperial painter doesn't care about this, he only knows how to act according to orders. And this is not a glorious disease, the Hua family doesn't want to publicize it to the world, and I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to choose me, and after I was selected, it was too late. ”

Marquis Wu Wei stared at her, "Does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know?" ”

Hua Yan said lightly, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince naturally knows. ”

The dark color in Wu Weihou's eyes deepened, "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows, there is nothing more to say." As the words fell, he stood up, as if to leave.

Liu Fuxiang and everyone were stunned.

"Master Hou, slow down!" Hua Yan hurriedly stopped him, she used Liu Fuxiang's toss today, just to drag Wu Weihou to take advantage of the situation, but after this person knew about it, she actually said that she didn't want to care, so she couldn't let him care.

Wu Weihou stopped, "What advice does the crown princess have?" ”

Hua Yan said seriously, "Hou Ye is loyal to the saint, loyal to the rivers and mountains of Southern Chu, his heart can be learned, the sun and the moon can be expressed, now that he knows about this, he must not ignore it, right?" ”

Wu Weihou didn't say anything when he heard this.

Hua Yan continued, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has to marry me, although I don't want to put gold on my face, but this is true. Think about me, a short-lived person who has no virtue, no talent, no manners, no rules, stubbornness, and infertility, I really have no merit, and I really can't be a princess. So, I've always resisted. However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince insisted on going his own way, I really have a hard time, I don't want to be scolded for the country and the people in the future, since I was met by the Hou Ye today, I hope that the Hou Ye will be the master. ”

Wu Weihou stared at Hua Yan, and there was a touch of deep thought and darkness in his dark eyebrows, "His Royal Highness the Prince's affairs, Benhou can't be the master." ”

Hua Yan smiled lightly, "The matter of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not a matter of one person, but about the Chaogang Sheji and the dawn of the country." Hou Ye is an official in the court, he eats the king's luck, and he is loyal to the king, and he has not encountered it, since he has met it, how can Hou Ye stand idly by? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the prince, and he is a matter of all the people, and he dares to recommend it not only for the Imperial Historical Observatory, but also for the Hou Ye and the civil and military officials. ”

Wu Weihou narrowed his eyes, the darkness under his eyes turned into a sharp knife, stabbing straight at Hua Yan, and his whole body was full of momentum in an instant, and everyone felt that there was not enough air in vain, and they were a little out of breath.

Hua Yan is not afraid of this momentum, all she wants is the result, facing the edge of his sword that is no longer hidden, she smiled faintly, "For the minister, speak out, dare to recommend, be loyal, and never give up." Master Hou, are you a loyal and good general? If so, you should not ignore such things, and if you don't know about them, you don't know them. ”

This is the army of the Marquis of Wu Wei, no matter what, he is not a loyal general.

As soon as she said this, everyone in the main hall was almost out of breath, so quiet that they could hear a needle dropping.

Wu Weihou was furious in vain, and a thick storm welled up under his eyes.

Everyone felt that the main hall was like a cold day for a moment, and the north wind was fierce and cold to the marrow.

Hua Yan still smiled faintly, facing the futile anger of Wuwei Hou, shallow and casual, talking and laughing freely, "Hou Ye must know something about what has happened in the past year." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really ...... It's too bent on going its own way. He suppressed the impeachment of me by the Imperial Observatory with a single sentence, which is not a good thing. After all, even a little woman who doesn't know anything knows that if Yushitai exists in name only, and if no one in power dares to recommend it directly, then this country is not far from extinction. Today, he ignored everyone's opposition to marrying me, who was useless, for the sake of the freshness of the world, which was different from the women in the world, and tomorrow he would dare to do something bigger than marrying the crown princess, and the country would be in danger. Therefore, this precedent must not be set. ”

The storm that poured out around Wu Weihou did not stop, and he still looked at Hua Yan and did not speak.

Hua Yan thought that the words had come to this, she had already said everything that should be said and what should not be said, and it would be boring to say it again, she took a sip of the teacup, the tea was already cold, but she felt that the entrance was cool and comfortable.

She shook her cup and said with a smile, "Master Hou thinks I'm right?" After the words fell, she raised the cup in her hand and said, "Just like this tea, you should drink it while it is hot, if it is cold, most people will choose to pour it out." But there are a few people who like this herbal tea. ”

The storm anger around Wu Weihou gradually faded, and he sat down again, his eyebrows returned to the darkness they had when he first saw Huayan, "Lin'an Huayan is indeed worthy of its reputation." ”

Hua Yanjian finally said that this person was moved, her smile widened, and she said with a light smile, "Master Hou has won the award, I am just a person who is crawling in the mud, and I can't get into the hall of elegance, in order for me not to bear the infamy of this disaster country for thousands of years in the future, and also to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have no stains on his body, and even more so that the loyal ministers and good generals of Southern Chu are recorded in history, so I rely on Lord Hou." ”

Wu Weihou sneered, "You are young, you really have sharp teeth and sharp mouth, and Lord Jiang, who is the most eloquent in Yushitai, is afraid that he is not as good as you." I knew that you were so eloquent, and the envoy Ben Hou who went to the southwest of the state should have recommended you, so that the princess of Anyang would not worry about his son every day. ”

Hua Yan said with a smile, "Shu left Gongzi to go to the southwest of Fanbang as an envoy, it is the most suitable candidate, a woman's mouth can be used for a while, how can it be used in national affairs?" Hou Ye lifted up. ”

Wu Weihou said in a deep voice, "Whether it is Benhou or not, you know very well in your heart. When the words fell, he seemed to have made a decision, and instructed the outside world, "Come on, go and ask the son to come over." ”
