Chapter 64: Waste Chess Pieces
Before the Qin family had time to show their strength in the court, they fought to the death with the Xu family, and early in the morning of the second day, the news of the death of the abolished prince was seriously ill and died in the palace.
Mrs. Qin's face was gloomy, and he put the tea cup in his hand down, and then looked at Qin Haifeng coldly.
"What the hell is going on?" He asked angrily, "The eldest prince was obviously fine yesterday, why did he suddenly fall seriously ill today?" There was no news at all before, could it be that the Xu family and the Xie family had the audacity to do something rebellious! ”
"Father......" Qin Haifeng rarely flinched a little.
Over the years, Mrs. Qin has grown older and his temper has grown.
However, Qin Haifeng is the eldest son after all, and now the Qin family's affairs are also in charge of him, so he is not like other juniors, seeing his father is like a mouse seeing a cat.
Most of the time, he can still stabilize his mind.
But at this moment, looking at Taifu Qin's gloomy face, he couldn't help but feel a little weak.
"This matter is a long story, my son asked people to find out the news, and the eldest prince did not suddenly fall seriously ill, but the emperor personally ordered someone to kill him."
"How is that possible?" Qin Taifu slapped the table and stood up and shouted, "Tiger poison still doesn't eat children, the emperor is a generation of Ming monarchs, how could he take his son's life for the sake of a cold palace concubine?" Isn't this a ridiculous joke? ”
"Father......" Qin Haifeng subconsciously took a step back, "What you said is true, but you probably don't know that after the abolition, the Xue family went crazy in the Listening Rain Pavilion and stabbed Xie Guifei to a serious injury, and the concubine Niangniang was still unconscious at the moment." ”
As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at Taifu Qin: "The emperor was already angry, and he didn't have time to deal with it, but the eldest prince of the East Palace also made a fuss, and the palace people who were killed by him yesterday were not ten or eight." ”
"Not to mention those who have been seriously injured and lightly injured, the blood on the ground of the East Palace has not yet had time to be washed away."
"Concubine Niangniang had to rush over with Xin'er, so she was not hacked to death by him, and many people in the palace saw it!"
He paused: "I heard that the emperor also saw it with his own eyes......"
Although Qin Haifeng was not at the scene at the time, this did not prevent him from finding out the news and speaking eloquently.
Qin Taifu frowned, and couldn't help but scold: "In the end, it is from a vulgar family, and he is like this after the abolition, and he will also develop this kind of temperament for a good prince!" I just asked my Qin family to educate him, disregard people's lives, and do nonsense! It's a shame for the old man! ”
But the eldest prince is crazy, although it is not right, but it is ......
Qin Taifu couldn't help asking, "Then it won't take the prince's life for a few dead minions?" What's more, you also said that the concubine was just near, so naturally she was not injured, why is the emperor? ”
Knowing that it would be impossible not to make it clear today, Qin Haifeng knelt on the ground with a "poof": "Father, the eldest prince wants to kill his father and kill the king, and he raises his sword to kill the emperor, and the emperor is ......."
He paused: "The news has been tightly sealed in the palace, if it weren't for the fact that my son still has some connections, I'm afraid he will be kept in the dark." ”
Qin Haifeng didn't dare to look up at his father's face: "Now that my son knows it, I'm just afraid of ...... The Xu family must also know, not to mention that they have always been in the same breath as the Xie family, and Concubine Xie ......is there."
Mrs. Qin was silent.
But his face was so dark that he almost glowed.
This is a catastrophe!
Originally, the crown prince was deposed, and they could still compete with others, because although what Mo Gong did was absurd, anyone with a discerning eye knew that he must have been framed.
And Empress Xue would never do anything to collaborate with the enemy and betray the country.
But now, indiscriminately hurting people, killing fathers and kings, which is not a capital crime?
It's no wonder that the emperor will order to kill the abolished prince, if he doesn't kill him, the ghost knows what will happen after that?
Qin Haifeng waited for a long time without waiting for a reaction, and couldn't help but raise his head: "Father......"
"What do you think?" Mrs. Qin suddenly let go, and leaned softly on the back of the chair and asked.
"What does my son mean......," Qin Haifeng lowered his head, "Rather than dying, it's better to give up." Although the Qin family is recognized as the deposed prince, the emperor knows it, otherwise how would he admit all my Qin family sons and daughters to the court as officials? ”
As soon as he got the news this morning, he thought about it, and now that his father was willing to listen to him, he had to make it clear for the fate of the family.
"The emperor just knows what kind of heart the abolished prince is, so he feels sorry for my Qin family. Now that he's dead, why should we hang ourselves on this crooked-necked tree? The son thought about it and thought that the emperor might be ......"
He paused for a moment, arguing about the rights and wrongs of the Son of Heaven, if it was spread out, it would be a big crime to kill his head, but at this moment he had to say it.
"The emperor may have long been interested in the second prince, not to mention that judging from today's events, the son guesses that the abolition will not last long. Concubine Xie Guifei's methods are too clever, and the emperor is in it, so I am afraid that he may not be able to detect the abnormality......"
"The son is thinking, the waste son is useless, it is better to see if he can follow the path of the second prince."
"How is this possible?" Mrs. Qin had never said anything, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but interrupt him, "The Xie family is the second prince's mother's family, and the Xu family has always been the leader of the Xie family. We never had a good face with them in the past, have you forgotten how you scolded each other in the court yesterday? ”
He sneered and looked at his son with a strange expression.
"Now that the prince has just died, let's get up, not to mention that others will look down on us, it's someone else, so we can succeed?"
Yesterday, the two families came and went, and their mouths were not clean, and they probably had involved each other's ancestors for many generations.
Even if some words are scolded in a vague way, but everyone is not stupid, who can not hear it?
The reason why Mrs. Qin didn't go to court today was because he scolded too hard and was too excited in the court yesterday, and he was so humiliated by a junior on the other side that he almost vomited blood, so he deliberately said that he couldn't get sick.
I thought that I would recuperate for a few days first, and then come out when things calmed down, there would always be a time when the peaks and loops would turn.
But the world is unpredictable, who would have thought that this great prince would be so fateful, kill himself without mentioning it, and also harm the Qin family!
Qin Haifeng hadn't thought about this, but being said so directly by Mrs. Qin at this moment made him blush: "Father, isn't this a different situation?" ”
He said: "Yesterday in the court, we took advantage of it, so naturally we were not afraid of them climbing and biting indiscriminately, but now the emperor has said that the waste prince is possessed by evil ghosts, and we really don't need to gamble with the entire Qin family......
"What's more," Qin Haifeng raised his head, "I can't gamble anymore, this person is gone." ”
Qin Taifu didn't speak again.
Qin Haifeng knew that his father had listened to it, and hurriedly made persistent efforts: "The son already has a Chen calculation, and the Xie and Xu families naturally regard our Qin family as enemies, but if you want to take down the second prince, you don't have to rely on them." The son thinks that the second prince has already reached the crown, but he has not yet been married......"
He said tentatively: "Shuyan is the eldest lady of the Qin family, and she is the first beauty of our Daliang, my son thinks, it is more than enough to match her with the second prince." ”
"What's more, she is still the county lord of the emperor's own title, although she is just a false name and has no actual fief, but she has an identity in the end."
Qin Haifeng was about to say more, but was stopped by Mrs. Qin as soon as he raised his hand.
Qin Shuyan has been staying in the palace with the third princess these days, and she didn't know that because of the death of the abolished prince, she was sold by her father so quickly.
Before, she came to accompany Mo Xin'er to write and copy the book, but before the book was copied, something happened in the palace.
They couldn't attend the palace banquet of Concubine Xie, but the news came quickly.
There are too many dead people, listening to the purge of the minions of Yuge and the East Palace, some of them found out that they had a good relationship with the subordinates around the third princess during the interrogation, and the forbidden army didn't ask what was good or bad at all, so they came directly and took the people away.
These days, the forbidden army has come and gone dozens of times, and Qin Shuyan is seeing that the palace maids here are getting fewer and fewer day by day.
I thought that this matter would not last long, but who expected that the emperor would immediately issue a holy decree to abolish the crown prince.
Just as she was in confusion, the prince died so quickly.
Qin Shuyan felt that she was like a dream, as if she had just slept and the world had changed.
And Mo Xin'er was completely depressed all day, and now she doesn't speak or move, just sits at the table like a fool all day long.
It was too hard for her.
Although she didn't look down on this stupid princess in her heart, Qin Shuyan couldn't help but feel a little distressed when she looked at her thin face.
"You......" her throat tightened, "you, are you alright?" ”
Mo Xin'er was stunned, not knowing whether she heard or not, and slowly turned around to look at her after a while.
His eyes were a little dull, and he didn't have the agility of the past.
"It's fine." She muttered under her breath.
"Do you want to eat?" Qin Shuyan walked over slowly, took the lunch on the table next to her and put it away, "Let's eat some." ”
"Okay......" Mo Xin'er replied in a daze, but the person didn't move.
Qin Shuyan was a little unsure of what to say.
Simple persuasion is indeed possible, but if you want her to take care of people carefully and patiently, you can't.
The appearance of the third princess doesn't mean that she wants to feed her, right?
The trace of sympathy that had just been born was dispelled by this thought.
In fact, she knows very well in her heart that although Mo Xin'er has always regarded her as the best sister, she doesn't like her from the bottom of her heart.
A lady of heaven who only knows how to use force, has no brains, and causes trouble from time to time but does not know it, of course, cannot be the best choice for making friends.
Qin Shuyan felt that she had really done her best.
Empress Xue has been defeated so far, and she hasn't thrown her away immediately, and even persuaded her here.
What about her? But I still don't know what to do.
Finally, after taking a deep look at Mo Xin'er, Qin Shuyan didn't speak anymore and stepped out of the door.
The people who Empress Xue sent to guard here before have long since disappeared, and the forbidden army has come to pull many people before, and now this territory has become a dead city.
Qin Shuyan walked a long way out, but she didn't see anyone.
I was about to go to the boundary of Tingyu Pavilion when I saw someone there running out in a hurry.
There have been great changes in the palace, and many palace maids have suffered skin injuries, but they are fine.
But Concubine Xie was seriously injured, and Concubine Xie was even more frightened because she saw the prince's crazy appearance, and she was sprayed with blood on her head and face, and she was so frightened that she had a high fever.
Xiaoxing took a warm cotton towel and put it on her forehead, and the concubine finally slept peacefully.
However, this sleep didn't last long, Jiang Mengyun only entered the door with his front feet, and Concubine Xi suddenly opened her eyes again and sat up straight: "Help, help!" ”
The voice was heart-rending and frightening.
Jiang Mengyun was stunned for a moment before he walked in and asked Xiaoxing, "How is Niangniang?" ”
"The mother was terrified." Xiaoxing took off the cotton towel on Concubine Xu's forehead and replaced it with a new one, trying to help Concubine Xuan lie back, but Concubine Xuan refused to move.
She had no choice but to stop her hand first, looked at Jiang Mengyun and said: "I talked all night in my dreams, and I have to wake up every once in a while to shout for help. ”
Xiaoxing pointed behind him, and there were indeed a lot of things piled up there.
"Niangniang just took the medicine," she couldn't help but sigh, "I don't know when it will get better." ”
As she spoke, Concubine Xi suddenly fell to the sky, and Xiaoxing was so frightened that she hurriedly stepped forward to help her, so she didn't let her hit her head.
Just this action seemed to make her sober up, and Concubine Xuan slowly opened her eyes: "Miss Jiang? ”
Jiang Mengyun hurriedly approached and responded, "Niangniang, it's me." ”
Concubine Xi was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly "wow" howled and cried, and suddenly sweated profusely: "It's scared to death in this palace!" Is that really possessed by evil spirits? It's not the first time I've seen this dead man, but this time it's really the scariest one......"
Isn't it?
Jiang Mengyun didn't respond, he was stabbed like a sieve, and he was not scared.
She was chattering and talking, when suddenly a little palace maid knocked on the door and came in hurriedly: "Niangniang, Niangniang, are you awake?" That, that......"
"Which one?" Concubine Xi was crying to the core, but she was hastily interrupted, she was in a very bad mood, and she was not angry when she spoke.
The little palace maid knelt down with a "bang": "Someone outside said that the queen hanged herself." ”
"Huh?" Concubine Xi's eyes widened, and she suddenly fell to the sky again, muttering in her mouth, "Oh, don't say this again, the death of the hanged person must be very scary, I heard that the eyes are protruding, and the tongue is pulled out!"
"No, no, no, don't say it again, you can't think about it anymore, ah...... I'm scared to death in Hongu......"
Jiang Mengyun couldn't help but turn around.
So fast?
It seems that this Xie Guifei has a strong method, in order to let the second prince ascend the throne without worries, in order to let herself inherit the throne smoothly, she completely cares about it.
She's too aggressive.
Jiang Mengyun thought, there were originally only two princes in the entire Great Liang, but now that she has made a plan to send the abolished prince to the western sky, isn't there only one second prince left in the palace?
She wanted to clear the obstacles for the second prince, but she didn't think about whether the emperor and the people of Daliang could endure the thinness of His Majesty's heirs.
