Chapter 231: The first reaction was the Six Princes

"Master, everything is ready, just wait for tomorrow."

The chief butler of the Lan family came from outside, and the letters of condolence have been widely distributed in various prefectures, and tomorrow will be the main event.

"Got it, you have someone get some more ice."

When he came back, Yan Chaoge said that he should pile up some ice cubes around the corpse, and only in this way could he strive to preserve the integrity of the corpse to a greater extent.

Looking at Mrs. Lan, who was about to faint, Lord Lan's heart was also extremely distressed. He asked Mrs. Lan to stay, sit in front of the mourning hall by himself, and burn paper for the nameless female corpse, hoping that the woman who helped them could be reincarnated as soon as possible, and hoped that she could devote herself to a good family.

Naturally, some people have been watching the affairs of the Lan Mansion, and there are many people who are probing the subordinates in the Lan Mansion and asking about the situation in the Lan Mansion. The things that everyone inquired about were all about how sad and weeping Lord Lan and Mrs. Lan wept.

The mourning hall was set up in the antechamber, and the cry of regret coming from inside could be heard by everyone who came and went, so those who came to inquire about the news also believed what the servant said.

"Hey, what the hell are you talking about?"

In the palace, Concubine Xian looked at the five princes in front of her, and when she saw that his face was calm and there were no emotional fluctuations, Concubine Xian was really angry.

"Are you reacting or not? Your fiancΓ©e died, on the day you got married! ”

Facing Concubine Xian's loud questioning, the fifth prince just looked at Concubine Xian who was kneeling on the ground lightly: "Mother concubine, my father ordered no one to see you, but you asked your son to enter the palace, and your son also came in obediently and came to visit you." If you say something that the other retainers don't want to hear, the retainers won't stay here. ”

The five princes' affectionate words made Concubine Xian feel that she had a feeling of being slapped in the face.

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

Concubine Xian frowned, looking at the son who stood with her hands in her hands, she always felt that this son was really strangely tight.

"Erchen knows what he's talking about."

The fifth prince glanced down at her, but there was no pity in his eyes. There is no trace of pity, and there is just indifference in the eyes.

"The mother really hurts you in vain! Over the years, the mother's hard work is to feed the dog, and it can also be exchanged for the dog's bark! ”

Concubine Xian looked at the fifth prince with an indifferent face, and she didn't know in her heart that this son was afraid that she would be annoyed by Yan Chaoge's matter.

"The eldest lady of the Lan family, Erchen, didn't want to marry her in the first place, but since she is dead, Erchen will get her wish."

His tone was so relaxed and simple that it made Concubine Xian suspect that Lan Yu's death was actually inseparable from the five princes.

"That Lan Yu, it shouldn't be that you sent someone to kill you!"

The fifth prince quickly glanced around, and saw that no one was paying attention to this side, which was a relief.

"Mother, you'd better remember what to say and what not to say, otherwise, it is difficult to guarantee that the next moment, it will be the emperor's decree or death will come first."

After the fifth prince said indifferently, he turned around and left.

"Changping! You give me back! ”

Concubine Xian looked at the back of the fifth prince and gritted her teeth: "As the son of your mother's concubine, you see that your mother has been kneeling here for a day, don't you know what to do for your mother?" ”

However, the five princes are the same as Emperor Cheng Lin, no matter how the virtuous concubine calls, the five princes have never returned.

"Mother's ......"

The lady beside Concubine Xian also cried anxiously: "Why don't you go to Concubine Shu's palace to beg Concubine Shuniang!" ”

mentioned Concubine Shu, Concubine Xian began to think in her heart, did she have any other party sorry for Concubine Shu, and after thinking about it, there was nothing wrong with it, so Concubine Xian asked the little maid to see Concubine Shu.

Concubine Shu was preparing to visit Emperor Cheng Lin in the imperial study with the three princes at this time, worried about whether there was anything wrong with his body. Just when the mother and son were about to leave the palace where Concubine Shu lived, they saw a little girl running over recklessly.

"The slave Chunxi has seen Concubine Shuniang, His Royal Highness the Third Prince."

After all, Concubine Shu is an old man in the palace, and she can see at a glance who this little maid is.

"Chunxi, but what happened to Sister Xianfei?"

When Chunxi heard that Concubine Shu actually remembered her little maid, her favorability towards Concubine Shu couldn't help but deepen.

"Concubine Shu, my family's virtuous concubine Niangniang has been kneeling in the palace for a day, and her legs are purple from kneeling, begging Concubine Niangniang to intercede with the emperor!"

Hearing this, Concubine Shu remembered what happened in the morning when Emperor Cheng Lin went to Concubine Shangxian's palace early in the morning.

"Little girl, don't cry, it just so happens that the concubine and the third prince are about to go to the imperial study, so you can follow behind."

Hearing Concubine Shu say this, the little girl knelt on the ground again and again and kowtowed to express her gratitude.

When the group came to the imperial study, Gonggong Liu had just come out of it, and after seeing the concubine and the third prince, he was busy saluting.

"Niangniang, the emperor is still talking about how the third prince went to ask you how to save it, and now you are here."

"Something happened on the way."

Gonggong Liu looked at it and saw Chunxi standing beside Concubine Xian behind Concubine Shu. Immediately understood what was going on, so he walked to Concubine Shu's side and said with a smile.

"Niangniang, the emperor's temper is big now, it's best not to beg for mercy."

"Thank you Gonggong Liu for reminding me, this concubine has her own measure."

After expressing their gratitude, Concubine Shu and the others went in, leaving Chunxi alone outside, and soon Gonggong Liu came out and said a few words to Chunxi.

Chunxi hurriedly knocked his head a few times in front of the door of the imperial study, and quickly returned to the palace of the virtuous concubine.

The concubine in the imperial study heard the heavy kowtowing sound outside the door, and gently persuaded Emperor Cheng Lin beside her.

"All this is Concubine Liang's conspiracy, Concubine Xian is innocent, and if she has been kneeling for a day, it can be regarded as punishing her for not knowing people clearly."

Emperor Cheng Lin was a little less dissatisfied with Concubine Xian, but when he heard Concubine Shu say this at this time, he was much less angry with Concubine Xian.

"I hope she understands that it's much better to be an elegant vase than to be a self-assertive clown."

Concubine Shu did not answer.

Emperor Cheng Lin and Concubine Shu had some embarrassing things to say, and it was already late at this time, so they said to the third prince: "Yanran is alone in the house, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient, you go back." ”

"Yes, the retainers are retired."

The respectful and filial appearance of the third prince, coupled with the face that was very similar to him when he was young, made Emperor Cheng Lin feel comforted.

"Lady Lady, I feel old and want to rest."

When Concubine Shu heard his words, she immediately became nervous: "Your Majesty, you are still young, your body is upright, how can you talk about old age!" ”

"Alright, Lady. It's just you and me here, just talk to each other as a wife, and don't have to be so scared. ”

Concubine Shu saw that Emperor Cheng Lin wanted to talk, so she obediently agreed.

"I am now regretting every day, regretting why I became this emperor, regretting why I married so many women......"

……

When the third prince left the palace, he did not go back to the palace directly, but came directly to the Taifu Mansion. After returning to the door three days, he was busy with the wedding of the prince and his other two younger brothers, worried that someone would take advantage of the chaos to hurt Liu Yanran, so he simply put people in the Taifu Mansion.

"Father-in-law."

When he arrived at the Taifu Mansion, the third prince looked solemn.

"Do you think tomorrow's officials, will they criticize their father for doing things too much...... he didn't say the word bloody, but the third prince felt that his smart father-in-law must understand what he had not finished speaking.

"Since the emperor has chosen to slaughter the palace, he is already ready to extinguish his mouth." Mrs. Liang stretched out his hand and touched his beard: "Don't look at those officials who are not afraid of the sky and the earth on weekdays, but when it happened in the palace, they still didn't dare." ”

As for what the official is like, in fact, Mrs. Liu still knows it in her heart. When these people have nothing to do with the royal family, they can speak well one by one, that is because no matter how fierce they scold, as long as it is not related to the emperor, the emperor will save their lives in the end.

But once they set their pen on the emperor, it meant that the lives of their nine clans were over.

"My father-in-law has a high opinion."

The third prince had always been worried, but at this time, he was comforted.

"That's good, Chang Qi has been worried, the situation in the Jin State at this time is turbulent, there is a provocation from the Liang State in the east, and there is a Chen State in the north, and our Jin State is not stable internally, Chang Qi is worried that once the officials criticize his father, it will speed up the situation of the Jin State war."

Mrs. Liang nodded, feeling that what the third prince said was very reasonable.

He looked at the three princes with great appreciation, no wonder the dragon and phoenix among people like the six princes and the nine emperor uncles would willingly stoop behind him, the third prince is indeed a person who can see very thoroughly.

"Don't worry, they won't say."

Time passed overnight, and on the morning of the second day, Lord Lan took a special vacation because of the loss of his daughter.

Above the court, Emperor Cheng Lin directly read out the cause of death of the Seven Princes and Concubine Liang.

When they heard the contents of the holy decree, the Manchu Dynasty was shocked.

Let's not talk about Concubine Liang's affair with the emperor of Chen State, that is, Emperor Cheng Lin was so generous to tell the matter of Concubine Liang stealing people and giving birth to wild seeds, which is enough to shock the ministers, just ask the civil and military people of the Manchu Dynasty who don't know that Emperor Cheng Lin is the person who loves face the most!

For the sake of saving face, he wanted to kill Gongzi Changqin many times, and for the sake of face, he didn't say how many cruel things he did, but today, none of them thought that the emperor would be so brave and directly show that he killed Concubine Liang and the Seventh Prince!

"As for when I found out that Gongzi Changlin is not my bloodline, it was the last time Luan'er was poisoned. I and Gongzi Changlin were in front of the royal ancestors and ancestors, and in front of the Seven Emperor Uncles, I confessed to Gongzi Changlin with blood, and it turned out that he was indeed not my child. I have never killed him, just to know the face of Concubine Liang, and now, the truth has been revealed, Concubine Liang is a spy planted by Chen Guo, she sent someone to kill Princess Tianya, but also to provoke a war between Jin and Chen, such a poisonous woman, she really needs to hang on the city gate and expose herself to the sun for a few days! ”

The Manchu Dynasty was in an uproar, and no one dared to say that it was not. After all, if any of them dare to say no, I'm afraid that the career of this life will come to an end.

At the same time, they also understood why Emperor Cheng Lin insisted on degrading the identity of the Seventh Prince not long ago, despite the obstruction of the ministers.

Almost as soon as the imperial court had sorted out the body of Princess Tianya, someone outside the city gate was riding a horse and running towards this side.

"Eight hundred miles of urgencyβ€”"

All the way to the palace unimpeded, the messenger presented the contents of the letter.

"Your Majesty! Chen Guo suddenly sent an army of 200,000 to attack my Jin Kingdom! The killing of Princess Tianya was used as a reason to send troops. ”

Hearing this, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty also knew that what Emperor Cheng Lin said was true, and Chen Guo set up a bureau and waited for them to go in and drill.

"If it weren't for Concubine Liang's stupidity and the fact that it was exposed too early, I would have felt that I was at a loss."

Now the officials of the Manchu Dynasty are very angry with Chen Guo.

"Your Majesty, Chen Guo dared to send troops to fight with such fear, it must be because they knew that Liang Guo had already made a move, so they wanted to get a piece of the pie and take advantage of this time to disturb the situation in my Jin Kingdom."

"Yes! I implore the emperor to send troops to attack the state of Chen! ”

After reading the letter in his hand, Emperor Cheng Lin listened to the big officials who came forward to ask for a war, and he felt powerless in his heart.

Is he Emperor Cheng Lin a fool? Don't know how to send troops to fight?

"In addition to the six princes in my Jin Kingdom, there are still people who are willing to take the initiative to ask for help."

Honor and disgrace are only in a moment, and it depends on how those people choose.

There was a momentary pause in the courtroom, and then a long silence.

Regarding this situation, Emperor Cheng Lin sneered, and he also despised those generals very much in his heart.

"What? Could it be that my Jin Kingdom is a big country, except for the six princes, there is no one to be the commander of the army? ”

Everyone bowed their heads and did not dare to speak.

Regarding the ministers' response, Emperor Cheng Lin was very angry in his heart.

"In the time of a stick of incense, if none of the generals are willing to lead the troops, then I will kill all of you generals."

The emperor was angry and ambushed for thousands of miles, they had already understood it as early as yesterday, but when Emperor Cheng Lin made another threat, everyone still felt shocked and scared.

There are a few people with soldiers and horses in their hands, you look at me, I look at you, and there is inevitably some weakness in my heart.

You must know that if anyone dares to fight in these years, Emperor Cheng Lin will let the six princes go as soon as possible, and this year, when they heard that a country was coming to commit a crime, their first reaction was to let the six princes go to war.

To be honest, these people have been idle for too long on weekdays, and I'm afraid that their martial arts are not proficient.

"Yes."

At this time, Wei Yuanhou walked out of the team.

Seeing Wei Yuanhou walking out, naturally other people also walked out at this time.

"The minister is also willing!"

Seeing those people following the trend and stepping forward to ask for a military order, Emperor Cheng Lin sneered.
