Chapter 218: Ask her to testify
Huan Wen raised his head and looked at Huan Che's eyes, like Li, Huan Che also gave birth to a pair of peach blossom phoenix eyes with affection, but these eyes revealed not a woman's Chu Chu pitiful, but a kind of detachment and indifferent calmness, Huan Wen seemed to realize that his son was really different from ordinary people at this time, other people saw him or respect or fear or admiration, but this son is different, he seems to have not known what cowardice and fear are since he was a child, and he has also shown a kind of arrogance and calmness that is different from ordinary people since he was a child. In the past, he felt that this was a kind of cultivation, an innate temperament and demeanor, but now, he felt that this son was a little incomprehensible to him, and even made him feel strange and afraid.
"Che'er, can you tell your father the truth, what happened to you in the days when you were held hostage by the owner of Chongqi Building? With your prudence and skill, it is impossible for you to fall into the hands of others unless you voluntarily do so. ”
After half a year, Huan Wen finally asked about this matter, and he also realized that this matter was unusual.
Huan Che calmly met Huan Wen's gaze, and paused for a long time before asking: "Father, will my father still believe what my son says now?" If the father really has no peace of mind, the son is willing to try. ”
With that, Huan Che picked up the dagger on the table, and without hesitation, he cut through the palm of his left hand, and the red blood dripped into the clear mirror-like water.
He respectfully handed the dagger to Huan Wen, who was stunned and questioned, looking at him.
Huan Wen was silent for a long time, and after taking the dagger, he suddenly turned around and brushed his sleeves, and overturned the cup of clear water soaked in blood.
"Someone!" He shouted steeply.
A subordinate came in at the command: "What does the head of the house command?" ”
"Go and call Shen Sima, I have something to ask her." Huan Wen said suddenly.
The composer was stunned and said, "Yes! Then he pressed his sword and went out.
Huan Che raised his head suddenly, and there was a slight change in his expression at this time.
"What did her father call her for?"
Huan Wen didn't answer, but said: "It seems that Zhongdao is right, you are indeed very nervous about her, Che'er, do you still want to marry her now?" ”
"No, I don't want to do it now." Huan Che replied as expected.
"Why?"
"For children, if they don't belong to themselves, even if they get it, it doesn't make much sense."
Really? If it doesn't belong to you, even if you get it, it doesn't make much sense, this sentence is detached, but in the end, you still want to get it, right?
"My father heard that she was pregnant."
Huan Wen suddenly said something again, which made Huan Che frown in horror.
Huan Wen said again: "A pregnant woman is really not worth fighting for, otherwise it will ......" Speaking of this, he waved his hand and sighed again, "That's it, my father doesn't want to mention this matter anymore, and my father called her to ask her some questions." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was a rumor outside the door: "The head of the family, Shen Sima has come." ”
"Let her in."
"Yes."
As soon as the word fell, the door was opened immediately, and Gu Yu, who was still dressed as a man, walked in.
"Shen Qian has seen Da Sima, I don't know what happened to Da Sima calling Qian?"
Huan Wen glanced at her, then motioned for her to sit down, and then he said: "Now there are only three of me and my father and son and you in this study, so Wen will no longer talk to you in a roundabout way, Gu Shiniang, Wen has something to understand, I need to ask you for an understanding." ”
"Da Sima, may I ask?"
"Wen heard that it was you who negotiated peace with Murong Ling, the son of Murong Chui, that caused the father and son to withdraw from the army, and now Wen has received news that the father and son did not return to Yecheng in Yan Kingdom since they retreated, but fled to Longcheng, what did you say to Murong Ling during the peace talks?"
Gu Yu pondered for a moment and replied: "Qian only said one sentence to Murong Ling: The phoenix soars in the thousands of miles, and the virtue is down, Murong Chui and his son are not things in the pool, and they should not be destroyed in the civil strife in the country, but should choose another master to follow suit." ”
Huan Wen's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he couldn't believe it: "With just this sentence, you can convince Murong Ling to come to my Great Jin?" ”
"Of course, it depends on the time, place and people, and discord."
Gu Yu replied, Huan Wen was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly: "What you said about discord between people refers to the contradiction between Empress Dowager Yan and Murong Chui, right?" ”
"Yes."
Huan Wen laughed again, and after laughing, he suddenly straightened his body, cleaned up his appearance, and asked: "You can look at the time, the place and the people, so in the opinion of Eleven Niang, when will Wen be crowned a prince to the court?" ”
Gu Yu's heart sank, and he said secretly: Sure enough, Huan Wen is still going to come to this point, to put it nicely, he is to make a prince to the court, but in fact, he wants to replace Jin, now Huan Wen knows that his health is not good, and it is very likely that his life is approaching, and his persistent dream of usurping the throne must also be imperative.
"Da Sima, Qian has already said that within three or five years, Qian can help Da Sima Ping Murong Yan and destroy Fu Qin, and at that time, it will be the time for Da Sima to show his great ambitions and ask for the title of king."
"But that's not what your senior brother said, he said that now that Luoyang has been decided, and the prestige of the Huan clan has risen greatly, I, Huan Wen, should force Sima Yue to abdicate at this time, otherwise when Sima Yue slowly controls the government, Wen may never have a chance again."
"Senior brother?"
Gu Yu was stunned, and Huan Wen explained: "Wen remembers that you said that you studied under Du Daoshou, Ge Zhichuan, and that Heavenly Master Dao Sacrifice Wine Lu Zhu is also a disciple of Du Tianshi, isn't he your senior brother?" ”
At the mention of Lu Zhu, Gu Yu's face changed sharply.
"Da Sima, please forgive Qian, this Lu Xijiu's words are not credible."
"Oh? Why? Huan Wen's eyebrows were raised, revealing a little displeasure and interest.
Gu Yu said: "If Lu Saijiu's words are credible, why did he say at the celebration banquet that Da Sima Cosmic Honor must be a very human minister, Da Sima is now above 10,000 people under one person, Lu Saijiu did not dare to say in front of everyone that Da Sima had the noble life to replace Jin, but he privately instigated Da Sima to force the Son of Heaven to abdicate, but he knew that this Lu Saijiu was not using Da Sima, and he was waiting to reap the benefits of the fisherman." ”
"Really? If he takes advantage of me, what good will he gain? Could it be that he, a cultivator, also has the heart to covet the throne of the Jin family? ”
Not to mention, this Lu Zhu really has the heart to covet the throne, in his previous life, the army he led occupied almost half of Taicheng, most of the reason is that this person has won the trust of the Son of Heaven, can come and go freely in Taicheng, and won the hearts of the people with his prestige, and even bewitched the people to make trouble with him.
But who will believe such a thing? What's more, the current Huan Wen seems to have placed too much hope on this Lu sacrifice wine.
"Da Sima, Qian can't convince Da Sima with his words, Qian can only make a bet with Da Sima first."
"What bet?"
"Just bet that within three months, the Heavenly Master Dao will inevitably be in chaos."
As soon as Gu Yu said this, Huan Wen's face also changed sharply, he glanced at Huan Che who was sitting on the side again, and asked, "Che'er, do you think so?" Think this Lu Xijiu's words are not credible? ”
Huan Che replied without hesitation: "Yes." ”
Huan Wen looked at Gu Yu again, and after a long while, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go down!" ”
When Gu Yu was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly called again: "Slow, wait, Gu Shiniang, I heard that half a year ago, the owner of the Chongqi Mansion you mentioned broke into the Tingwei Office at night and killed nearly 200 jailers in the Imperial Prison, and that night, you were also present and had a fight with the landlord, but this is the case?" ”
"Yes. There is such a thing. ”
"Have you ever seen that man's true face?"
"Yes."
Hearing Gu Yu's decisive answer, Huan Wen couldn't help but be stunned, and then turned sideways again and asked, "What does he look like?" ”
When he asked this, he deliberately looked at Huan Che's expression, but saw that his expression still did not change, but he looked at Gu Yu with a little surprise.
At this time, I heard Gu Yu reply: "His appearance is very ugly. Qian only looked at it once, and then didn't dare to look at it again. ”
Ugly? Isn't that what it looks like Che'er?
Unconsciously, Huan Wen was slightly relieved in his heart, and asked again: "You have a grudge against the owner of Chongqi Tower?" ”
"Yes."
"What hatred?"
"We don't share the hatred of the sky."
Huan Wen was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "You finally killed him?" ”
"Yes, I killed him."
The answer without any hesitation made De Huan Wen stunned again, and after being silent for a while, he ordered Gu Yu to retreat.
Gu Yu, who had just walked out of Huan Wen's study, saw Li standing under the corridor and came to her.
"If Shen Sima is free, why don't you come to the concubine's courtyard, and the concubine also wants to have a good chat with Shen Sima. How is it? ”
Li's mouth was slightly flushed, and his smile was extremely charming and moving.
"There seems to be nothing to talk about between me and Mrs. Li."
Gu Yu was about to leave after speaking, but unexpectedly, the Li family said: "Don't you want to hear about your life experience?"
Don't you want to know who the woman who looks exactly like you is sitting on the queen's throne? ”
