Chapter 66: The Hind Hand
The queen never came out again.
On the high eaves of her dormitory, fairies, birds and beasts guarded her and suppressed her.
Su Chen was outside the Fengqi Palace, holding Chu Lian's hand, and asked the question she originally asked, "Can I trust you?" β
Chu Lian didn't know what she meant, but he still said very firmly: "Miss, as long as it's your business, I will go to the soup." β
Su Chen didn't feel it: "The queen told me that you are her person." β
Chu Lian was taken aback: "Miss ......"
Su Chen said: "I can't think of it, so these things are not important to me. But you've never told me the truth, have you? β
"Miss." Chu Lian took out the hand she was holding, and knelt down directly to the sky: "I swear, I have never done anything sorry for Miss!" β
Su Chen didn't pull her, nor did he stop her, let her salute and swear, defend herself, and not say a word.
The next day, the queen was seriously ill and fell into a coma, and the Fengqi Palace prepared a coffin. Two days later, the queen died.
Su Chen raised his glass in the direction of Fengqi Palace: "A cup of respect for the wind, a cup of respect for the past, and a cup of respect for you." What about you being a queen? Still unhappy, still have to die for others. β
Chu Lian was very invisible as if she had lived by her side, but there were not many places where she should exist, and at this time, listening to what Su Chen said was wrong, she reminded: "Miss." β
Su Chen picked up the wine jar and poured it to himself, and said, "Go and burn incense to your old master, I won't go, after all, I am physically and mentally exhausted." β
When Su Chen came out that day, the queen was still shouting behind her: "There is a debtor who is wronged." "Heh, it's ironic, the emperor no longer defends her, and she still wants to get a party to raise her hand and be punished lightly? In the queen's life, she booby-trapped more than 30 Zhongliang, almost all of them were first-class and second-class officials, and only a few were third-grade officials, who also played a pivotal role in the court.
While drinking, Su Chen spread out the queen's "confession", all of which were for the emperor, and this thing was dedicated to her by the queen - she knew that there would be this day when she was confined in Fengqi Palace, but she didn't expect that it would be Su Chen who came, and he also carried a "holy decree". She was crying and laughing at the time, and Su Chen felt that this would be an important step in her heart.
The queen's voice and smile became clear after she turned over, it was really ...... It's time to tell the emperor.
In addition to Chu Lian, there are still many palace people available, and Su Chen doesn't care who these people are now-the closest people around her are the queen's people, and she has been telling Chu Lian everything all the time.
This is not a matter of betrayal or non-betrayal, but the right to know, God knows that when the queen said that Chu Lian was her person, Su Chen's panic and fear and powerless paleness.
This is the premise that "people are dying, and their words are good", if not? Then Chu Lian rebelled at any time, what should she do? Although she believed that Chu Lian was a counter-plot, Chu Lian never mentioned it, which really made her very sad.
Wine is not intoxicating, for Su Chen, this is the most helpless catharsis, she has no one to talk to, no one to talk to.
A scroll was quietly sent to the Jin'an Palace, the emperor was tired of watching the performance, and was about to rest, when he raised his hand and touched the tea cup, the tea was sprinkled on a table, and he saw that he was busy calling the little eunuch to clean up, he sorted out the folds while looking through whether it was wet, and opened the scroll.
"The Emperor's ......"
Jianxi hurriedly shouted.
The emperor glanced at him: "What are you panicking about?" These governments were all screened by the crown prince. β
"This!" Seeing Xi, he was carrying a scroll, the handwriting on it was beautiful, clear and clear, and he said in a panic: "Your Majesty, this is the queen's love letter......
The queen's arguments and reasoning will not be mixed with the songs, but now with these things, what the emperor thinks of is - the prince knows.
He grabbed it, looked at it a few times, and immediately said, "Call the prince to see me." β
Before he finished reading anything, he called someone to summon him, and after admitting it, the emperor continued to read it and finished reading this volume of love letters.
The queen is really going to drag others to hell when she is dying, and her resentment will come out through the paper...... It's a pity that it didn't work.
This kind of thing, maybe a woman will believe it?
He didn't believe it anyway.
The Mandate of Heaven or something, that is for others to believe: he is the emperor, he is the destiny of heaven, as long as others believe this, they will believe him, and he just uses this to lead the ministers.
Above the court, what is important is the trade-off, and the emperor's knowledge is to balance the forces of all parties, so that these forces can bond with each other and grow each other, and finally affect all for the sake of the great cang, and for the sake of the great cang, they are both prosperous and lossy. Some people died for better development, and those people died as they deserved.
The queen is really naΓ―ve, she has done so many things and is still so naΓ―ve, how did she survive until now? He was sheltered and lived, and once he agreed to other preferential treatment, the queen could also be handed over and sacrificed.
Now it seems that the queen's sacrifice is useless.
What should come can't be stopped at all.
β¦β¦
When Zhao Tengrun came to Jin'an Palace, he had already read the queen's "Chen Love Letter", which was sent by Su Chen.
But I didn't expect that as soon as I came in, what the emperor asked him to read was this volume of "Chen Qingshu." β
Zhao Tengrun didn't say that he had seen it, he watched it very "seriously", and then looked up "in a panic" and said: "Your Majesty ......"
"Prince, how long has it been since you called my father?" The emperor sat on a circle chair with specially raised armrests, holding the bookcase, with a tired face: "When did your mind not hide?" β
Zhao Tengrun replied truthfully: "Erchen doesn't know. β
It's just a title, he didn't even pay attention to it, and at this time, when he asked a question, he thought about it seriously, as if he was calling with Su Chen?
"Good, you're honest as always." The emperor nodded: "What do you think is appropriate about the queen?" β
"Since this is the queen's mother's plea to you, it is naturally up to you to read it and deal with it." Zhao Tengrun's eyes flickered, and he looked at him as he spoke, with obvious other meanings.
The emperor has a headache, not a false word, but a real headache: "This is a matter of royal secrets, and if it is announced, it will shake people's hearts." β
Shake people's hearts?
If he didn't say this, the prince wouldn't be related, and as soon as he said this, the prince thought of the previous handling of the five princes, so he directly said: "Those old ministers will not waver in this matter, only the new ministers will waver." β
The emperor's expression was cold: "You want to make it public?" β
"Erchen said, it's up to you to decide, it's just that you ask, and Erchen answers your question." Zhao Tengrun smiled and resumed his appearance of doing family affairs.
The emperor stared at him, looked at him for a long time, and said: "The prince is mature, I remember that last time, you were still angry in your face, and I punished you directly." β
- He didn't see anything, and the prince didn't show any emotion!
Maturity didn't happen overnight, it must be that he didn't notice that in some corners, the prince endured thin hair.
Zhao Tengrun bowed with a smile: "Father, your health is getting worse, so you naturally feel that your son is mature." β
The emperor's heart was tight, it was really inconspicuous, so he squeezed him into the corner, if the prince forced the palace now, he wouldn't even have the power to fight back! He suddenly regretted executing the queen - in the end, only the queen and him were of the same mind, although he had done so many things, and finally left a love letter, he never disobeyed him.
People are like this, and only when they lose do they know that they have a good time.
Zhao Tengrun didn't force the palace, he wanted to be justified, and he endured it for so many years, and he didn't care about it for a while.
But the more he relaxed, the more he retreated, the more the emperor felt panicked and oppressed, he felt that this was the prince's means, this was to retreat as advance, this was to let him delegate power!
Seeing Xi waiting close day and night, he knew what it was like to move in every day, and where he would send it after moving out every day, the days were very peaceful on the surface, and in the blink of an eye, the palace people did not dare to be very lively, after all, the queen was newly mourned.
Su Chen has not been idle during this time, searching for the families that the queen said, as well as the property of those families.
Money is never too much.
The palace is also a new atmosphere for a while, and people outside the palace give gifts inside, and they are also deliberate, many people are the same as the concubines and concubines of the East Palace, and it is clear that they are not offended, but in fact, the two ends are not good - Sun Rouyin doesn't want to be the same as Su Chen, but she always can't get rid of it. Su Chen didn't want to be like Sun, it was better not to accept the gift she received, and she would save her the gift.
Sun Rouyin really gritted her teeth and returned the salute, the things these people gave were almost the same, after all, the August Festival was the mouth, but the first one was Zhou Anhan.
Don't look at General Zhou far away at the border, but there are never fewer gifts for the New Year's holidays, and they are all generous, and this time is no exception, it is to prove that Guangda will send gold and stones.
"We should really have a treasure building of our own." Chen Jian said casually when he asked people to carry the box in.
Su Chen said, "Then you go and arrange it, I can't go out now." β
Chen Jian thought he had misheard: "General? β
Su Chen said: "I said seriously, let's also take stock of the shops that should be there, don't wait until later, if you don't get the money, there is no way at all." β
Chen Yuying: "Yes." β
The general's arrangement is very reasonable every time, but in the end it is not a battlefield, these things still need her to explain a little, and about the inventory of the shop, it is still Chu Lian who personally collects it.
Chen Jian saw that Chu Lian was unhappy, he stayed outside the palace for a while, but Chu Lian didn't urge him, it was really abnormal!
"Between you and the general, what's wrong?" Chen Jian now understands Chu Lian, and coupled with the general's temperament, this is a more serious matter than a quarrel between the two.
Chu Lian looked at him, very aggrieved, and couldn't help crying: "Miss, she doesn't believe me, the queen is dying and provoking, Miss thinks I'm not her person, just because I entered the palace through the queen's hand." I can't explain it clearly, and the young lady is very indifferent to me......"
Chen Kuan said: "The general will not be so stupid, unless there is really something wrong with his brain, wouldn't it give others a chance to take advantage of it?" β
Chen Jiu's words woke Chu Lian up, she thought of this, patted Chen Jiu's shoulder, and said, "That's right! How I didn't think of that! Maybe Miss thought of it! Let's go back, it's not too short to come out! β
She figured it out and immediately returned to her original character, but she still had tears on her face, which made her look particularly pitiful.
Chen got up, followed her, and persuaded her: "If there is anything to tell me, maybe I may not be able to help anything, but at least it is okay to be a tree hole." β
Chu Lian was amused by him and said, "Brother Chen, you are so good." He turned around and ran away.
Chen Jian smiled and quickly followed: This is the real Chu Lian.
