Chapter 23: Wei Jiuli's persistence

When Wei Jiuli learned about this, Rong Guogong and General Zhenguo had already entered the palace.

The situation of this incident is somewhat similar to that of the Qian and Liu families some time ago.

It's just because of the different identities of the people who had the accident this time that it made such a big fuss.

The seventh son, Mu Shaochen, is the most favored grandson of Rong Guogong, and he is also one of the more prominent juniors in the Rong family.

It is said that the poems, books, pianos, chess, and paintings are all slightly successful, and they are also praised by the emperor as the pillars of the future country, and they are full of character and talent.

But such a person has contracted such an unbearable disease.

Mu Shaochen's illness was earlier, but Rong Guogong suppressed this matter in order not to damage his reputation, but in the end, the medicine stone was useless.

Rong Guogong was in mourning, and when he heard the people around him say that the reason why Aisun was contaminated with unclean people and got sick was entirely because of the temptation of the three sons of the general Zhenguo, he was immediately furious.

In addition, he needed an excuse to wash away the stigma for his child, so he went directly to the General's Mansion and made a fuss about this matter, wanting to use the blood of the third young master Yu Qian to whitewash his grandson.

But Yu Qian denied that he had taken the Seventh Prince to the land of smoke and willows, and only occasionally got together with him, listened to the piano and chanted poems, and did not commit the precept of lust.

General Zhenguo has always been strict with his three sons, even if he pampered the younger son because he was old and had a son, he did not neglect to manage it.

He didn't believe that his son would do such a thing, and he believed his son's words.

One of the two was experiencing the pain of losing his grandson, and the other didn't want his son to bear the stigma in vain, so they quarreled immediately, and they went directly into the imperial study.

Hearing this, Wei Guojun also had a headache.

Now that Mu Shaochen has died, there is no proof of death, and the two old ministers are unwilling to take a step back, and they both want to give their juniors an explanation.

In addition, when the queen heard about this, she also came over to cry, begging her nephew to be fair, so that Wei Guojun would have one head and two big.

It is not the first time that the queen mentioned that there has been such a disease in the imperial city recently, and there must be someone behind it who is planning something, saying that the nephew was framed by someone.

Wei Guojun remembered that his ninth son seemed to have mentioned a case similar to Hualiu disease a while ago, so he simply announced him and wanted to ask about the situation.

Wei Jiuli had been prepared for a long time, and immediately explained the Hualiu disease incident a while ago, plus Chen San's death, which also showed that the estimation behind this incident was not simple.

When Wei Guojun heard this, he immediately handed over the matter to him, and asked him to find out the truth of the case in the shortest possible time.

"Queen Mother, why did you give this matter to Lao Jiu?" When the eldest prince heard about this, he immediately entered the palace in the name of comforting and visiting his mother.

For him, this case is just an opportunity, and if it can be handled well, it is equivalent to being able to obtain the military power of the imperial city from Wei Jiuli.

He didn't believe that his mother didn't think of this, and he didn't believe that she couldn't win this opportunity for herself at that time, after all, it was the Rongguo Mansion that had an accident, no matter what the proposal was, as long as it was not out of line, his father would not agree.

The queen gently put down the teacup, raised her hand and wiped the corners of her mouth, before saying, "If you can think of it, the queen mother can naturally think of it, but have you ever thought about it, the king has always been indebted to him, if you take away his authority because of this matter, you will be dissatisfied with you later, and the guilt for him will be stronger, and you will definitely find a way to make up for it at that time." ”

The eldest prince was stunned for a moment, then frowned and pondered, and soon his face became gloomy again, obviously affirming the other party's words.

He clenched his fists, his face full of anger and unwillingness.

The queen glanced at him, but chuckled, "Don't worry." ”

When the eldest prince heard this, he turned his head to look at her, and then his eyes rolled, "But the queen mother has an arrangement?" ”

"You only think about how it can be done, but what if it can't be done?" The queen said softly, "If this matter cannot be resolved, your grandfather will not give up, and the king will also be dissatisfied, and then you will encourage the courtiers to ......."

There is no need to say more, the eldest prince will understand.

"Wonderful." The eldest prince smashed his palm with his fist, and his eyes lit up, "As long as you don't let him succeed, it's really the queen mother, a good move." ”

The corners of the queen's mouth hooked slightly, and she snorted coldly.

The old ones can't fight her, and what about the little ones, the mother and son are destined to only become stepping stones for her and her son.

"Then the queen mother, what are your specific arrangements?"

"If this matter was so easy to find out, it wouldn't have dragged on for so long, and there was no need to interfere too much, just need to add to the troubles, I already have arrangements, you just need to watch the play with peace of mind."

The eldest prince exhaled, completely relaxed, and nodded.

The queen said again, "By the way, during this time, you should go to see your imperial grandmother more, don't fall into your mouth, and also, how prepared are you for the birthday gift, this is the first time that the queen mother has held a big birthday, and the queen mother does not ask you to be a blockbuster, but you must not fall behind." ”

"Don't worry, the queen mother, the son knows it." The eldest prince nodded, thought about it, and said, "By the way, I heard that Bai Tang and the Bai family had a falling out?" ”

"Hmph, that idiot." The queen sneered.

It is no secret that Bai Tang fell out with the Guogong Mansion.

Probably to strike first, the Guogong Mansion released the news that Bai Tang submitted a letter of severance to the Guogong Mansion and threatened to buy off his life with gold and silver.

Grandpa Guo was angry because of this, and agreed in a fit of anger, and since then Baitang has nothing to do with Guogong Mansion.

This matter was originally rumored, but because there were not many people who knew Baitang, it was only hot for a day or two.

In the queen's opinion, Bai Tang's approach couldn't be more stupid.

What can a woman do if she doesn't have a backer behind her.

I thought it would be okay to rely on the Queen Mother, but I didn't want to think that the Queen Mother would be able to last for a few years with her current situation.

Even if the Queen Mother can really support her to be the master, what about her descendants? There is no tough foreigner, unless he is just marrying an ordinary person, otherwise he will have no say in his husband's family in the future.

She originally thought that this Baitang might be usable, but now she only thinks that this person is simply stupid, this kind of short-sighted person can be of great use, and fortunately, she didn't plan to stuff it next to her son in the first place.

The eldest prince also felt that Bai Tang's approach was simply a way out.

But at the same time, there is some schadenfreude.

Although Wei Jiuli is valued by his father, his foundation in the court is still shallow, and he does not have a reliable foreign family, and now the woman he likes is still cutting herself off.

Although the Duke of Lu has no real power, it is also a prince, and he has a certain right to speak in the court.

It is estimated that his ninth brother didn't know how to be upset when he learned about it.

Each side has its own plans, and on the side of the imperial study, after Wei Jiuli proposed to let Bai Tang follow him to assist in the investigation of the case, the atmosphere stiffened again.

Looking at his son with a determined face, Wei Guojun sighed heavily.

"You really identify with her?"

In fact, if the son really wants to take Bai Tang, it's nothing, it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, just let Bai Tang be a side concubine.

However, this son has long stated that he will not accept concubines in this life and only take a wife, that is to say, he will only marry Bai Tang.

If there was a Guogong Mansion behind him before, it would be okay, at most, he would find a way to pull a stronger backing for his son in the future.

But now that Bai Tang has no Guogong Mansion, his son has no foreign family, and there is no one behind the husband and wife, this is not good.
