Chapter 33 What the third sister said is not good
Since the queen became a princess since she beat the emperor, she is also in a good mood every day.
"Mingyue, let's go to the back garden for a walk, I always feel a little lazy in the past few days, and I have to go out for a walk."
"Yes, master." The queen is in front, and the bright moon is behind.
The lake is so colorful that it makes people feel happy instantly, and since marrying into the palace, although enjoying the glory and wealth, it is also a big regret for her to have children for the emperor. But because of Jie'er, a sensible child, she has felt that her life has been more comfortable over the years, and the emperor has respected her like a guest, so she also feels that life in the palace is not a grounded day in the eyes of ordinary people, and it can be regarded as free.
"Mingyue, this New Year's Festival is coming, find a time to visit your mother's house, and now this princess is married to the third sister's child, but I think it is a happy thing." She sat down in a pavilion, surrounded by girls.
"Master, I don't think this princess is an ordinary woman, she makes people happy when she looks at it, and she listens to her words."
"That's natural, the emperor's vision is of course unique, and his mind is not something that we ordinary people can guess, saying that he accepted the princess, one is to help the country to govern the world with peace of mind, and the other is to comfort the prince's heart, and the best of both things are handled very properly."
She pondered for a while, and then she felt a chill hit her.
"This weather, it is said to change, it was sunny before, but this time I sat down, but it was gloomy again."
"Master, do you need to go back to the palace to rest, I'm afraid that you have suffered from the cold, and this prince has to worry about you again." Mingyue said with concern.
"Sit a little longer." She hasn't come out these days to breathe well.
"Mingyue, just go get a cloak."
"Slave and maid, go now." After the words fell, he went to Zhang Luo.
I saw my grandfather come to report: "Queen, your prince and princess have come to visit you." ”
"Hurry up, please." I was thinking about them, but I came to visit myself first, and the joy in my heart was naturally self-evident.
The prince and the princess were taken into the back garden by Grandpa Sun, and saw the queen waiting in the pavilion from a distance.
"See the Queen." The two saluted together.
"The third sister of the prince does not have to be formal, please sit quickly, please sit quickly." The queen sat down with the two of them and chatted about their daily routines.
"Congratulations, this Wen'er is now happy princess, this is a rare happy event for our family, I was worried about the emperor and Jie'er before, it seems that I am too worried."
"Thank you for the queen's concern, we just learned the news about this matter, Coke broke Wen'er, but there is one thing, I don't know whether to talk about it or not, so I came to ask the queen what she meant."
The queen understood that the third sister should have a private matter, so she instructed the surrounding girls to avoid it.
At this moment, Mingyue walked over with a cloak.
"Queen, you put it on first, Mingyue has seen the princess and princess well."
"Mingyue, you go down first, I have something to discuss with the prince."
"Yes, master." The queen signaled, and Mingyue stepped back and waited far away.
"Lord Wang, please speak." Only the three of them were left in the pavilion.
The prince calmed down: "Do you remember what happened to our lost child back then?" ”
"Of course, did the prince find her?" The queen is also involved in the affairs of the year, and over the years, the third sister has been haunted by it and has suffered a lot of pain.
"In fact, over the years, we have always known where she is, since she was a child, she has sent someone to protect her in secret, but she has never been in touch, and I learned from the spies not long ago that she is the third lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion." The prince explained as he watched the queen's face change.
"Lord Wang, third sister, you can hide it from me so hard." The queen didn't know that the third sister of the prince had always known the whereabouts of the child.
"Sister, I also had no choice, I thought that sending it to the Prime Minister's Mansion could allow her to live a good life, but when I saw her not long ago, I was indeed a little reluctant, so I wanted her to recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors earlier, but thinking that the emperor had never let the emperor know about it over the years, I was worried that the emperor would be guilty of bullying the king, so how can it be good?" The princess was in a more anxious mood than anyone else at this time.
The queen was silent for a long time, and looked at the prince and the third sister: "Does that brother know?" ”
"Someone has already sent a letter, and I must have learned about it by this time." The prince said lightly, for fear that others would listen.
"Does my brother have a reply?" The queen asked.
"Not yet, I thought I would ask you first and then go to Shangshu Mansion." The princess thought that her sister was the queen after all, and if she told her, she would be able to explain some countermeasures to the emperor at that time, so she came here.
"It's fine." The queen understands what they mean, after all, her sister has the most power in the harem, and this matter must have a priority.
In fact, it was only because the emperor was seriously ill that the crown prince at that time was the only prince of the emperor, but he was taken away and heard from without news. The sixth prince was born to Concubine Xiang later. At that time, I thought that if the emperor really had a mistake, it would be the prince who would inherit the unification. In a hurry, Wu Shangshu came up with an idea for the princess.
The princess was born to a daughter that year, and there was no man in the other concubines, and the concubine who was thrown into the cold palace at that time happened to give birth at the same time as the princess, but died of excessive blood loss after giving birth. Concubine Shu because of her family's involvement in the nine clans, even the born child will be secretly executed by the people in the cold palace, in order to protect the royal bloodline, kill two birds with one stone, so she asked her sister Queen to take the son of Concubine Shu to the palace, and sent the daughter born to the princess to the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, which is why there is now the third lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion. All of this was Wu Shangshu's idea, and for the sake of the royal family, he was also an expedient measure, but he didn't expect that after many years, he would have to face it one day.
The mood of the three of them is a little complicated, the so-called companion is like a tiger, how many people can guess the emperor's thoughts? Although the son of Concubine Shu is also the emperor's own child, after all, he was secretly saved, and I wonder if the emperor will be angry because of this? Or are you willing to accept this prince?
Or did the prince calm down, looked at the two of them with a little pale, and spoke first: "Or, the queen will go to Shangshu Mansion with us and ask my brother what he means?" ”
The queen replied clearly: "Okay, then go with you." ”
"Mingyue, go and tell Gonggong Sun to tell the emperor, and say that I will go back to my mother's mansion with the princess and princess."
"Slave maid is going now, Queen Mother."
"Without further ado, let's go, we have to come up with a plan as soon as possible." After staying for a while, she got up, and the queen took Mingyue to Wu Shangshu's mansion together.
Qiyue in Shangshu Mansion was practicing with the two children in the backyard, only to see the housekeeper hurriedly walk in.
"Madam, the lord asked you to come over, saying that the queen has something to visit."
"I'll go." He closed his sword, placed it on his waist, and turned to walk to the antechamber.
"Qi'er, Hu'er, you are so good at practicing, E-Niang will go back when you go, don't be lazy." Qiyue commanded, and she urged them almost nothing to do, for fear of falling behind.
"Okay, E-niang." The two replied, and after seeing Nanatsu leave, they began to practice again.
"Look at the sword!" Wu Mohu raised his sword and attacked the eldest brother.
"Yo, you're still taking the initiative to challenge?"
"Of course, the eldest brother is often absent-minded these days, I think you miss the third lady, right?"
"Less nonsense, let's try to see if I'm absent-minded." Wu Moqi raised his sword and started a fight with his second brother.
Nanatsu rushed to the front hall and saw that everyone was waiting for her.
"See the Queen, the Lord and the Princess."
"No formality!" The queen replied, and Nanatsu sat down.
"Brother, I came here today for the matter of the little prince and Jin'er, I have already explained it clearly in the letter, I guess both of you know the truth, right?" The princess looked at everyone and said lightly.
"Third sister, I have read the letter with Qiyue and learned some inside information, but now Wen'er is about to get married, will this matter be discussed after marriage?" Wu Qiyue's previous misunderstanding of the third sister has also been relieved, and when she learned that it was to keep the royal bloodline, she also admired the third sister a little.
"What my brother said is okay, but my sister feels that now that the emperor has recognized the princess, she is in a good mood, wouldn't she be even more happy to recognize the emperor again?" The princess thought that if it dragged on any longer, everyone was worried that one day if the stuffing was exposed, it would not be more troublesome, and it would be better to come and not confess.
"What the third sister said is not right!" Wu Shangshu is not an ordinary person's mind, and he always has to be thoughtful when thinking about things.
"What do you mean, brother?" The prince didn't quite understand the meaning of Shangshu either.
Wu Shangshu took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Although this matter seems to be very simple on the surface, the matter of Concubine Shu back then was not a trivial matter, if the plan is a little careless, I am afraid it will cause trouble." "Shangshu has been investigating the case of the year all these years, and there seem to be some clues.
"According to the clues I found, the murder of Concubine Shu's family was actually done by traitors, not as simple as we imagined." Shang Shu sighed.
"Brother, what did you say? Is there another hidden reason for the murder of Concubine Shu's family? The queen couldn't believe it was true.
"That's true." Shang Shu has spent a lot of effort secretly investigating over the years, just because first, this matter implicates the third sister, and second, he is a righteous person, and he is suspicious of what happened back then, and he also feels worthless for General Feng's unjust death.
Feng Lun, the general who guarded the border pass back then, has been loyal for many years and has made many military exploits, but he was ruined by a defeat. It was at that time that the prince was kidnapped while playing in the military camp, and was later rescued by Master Yueqing of Shaolin and quietly sent back to the palace, but no one knows about it so far. And Concubine Shu is her eldest daughter Feng Xiaoqing, and there is a man named Feng Xiaobai under her knees.
"Concubine Shu was killed to death, and Xiao Bai was rescued by me and left a boy for him, which can be regarded as accumulating virtue for the emperor." The prince recalled the past and was also deeply saddened.
"What do you say? Xiao Bai is still alive? The queen asked.
Shangshu and Qiyue were also shocked.
"Yes, only I and the princess know about this matter, after all, it is a bloody case, and it is a unjust death, the fewer people who know, the better, I didn't tell Xiao Bai, he was still young at that time and had no memory, and didn't know the seriousness of the matter, when I asked, I just told him that he was killed by a thief robbing his wealth, and he is still thinking about his sister in the palace, but he doesn't know that he has been dead for many years, how can I bear to tell him these hidden secrets? brought him back to the mansion to find someone to teach him some kung fu, and later he was afraid of trouble, so he sent him to the prime minister's mansion to protect Jin'er. I was just worried about Xiao Bai's revenge, and I was afraid that I would lose the Feng family's bloodline. The prince's explanation made everyone feel an unprecedented shock.
"Lord Wang, you have really done a great deed." Shang Shu's mood was certainly heavy, but he felt that it was gratifying to hear these news.
Now, everyone understands all the inside information, and the atmosphere is no longer as tense as before.
