Chapter 454: If you get a treasure
Empress Wei smiled faintly: "Eight times out of ten. Nine! Otherwise, Brother and Sister Song haven't been in contact with you for a few days, and you are still in the filial piety period, why would she suddenly bother you? Most of them just wanted to borrow your hand and deliberately tell me about it! β
"But this matter ......," Wei Yinlian groaned, "I can't hear what it has to do with you, sister?" β
When she said this, her eyes flickered a little, and Empress Wei noticed it, a little ridiculous, and said lightly: "What? Do you suspect that the person behind the Lu clan is me?! β
"How so?" Wei Yinlian was really a little suspicious in his heart, but he still said, "I just thought that Brother and Sister Song specially revealed this matter to you euphemistically, what is the reason?" β
"What else can happen in this situation?" Empress Wei squinted at her sister and said casually, "Either she, like you, thinks that I have something to do with this matter and comes to remind her; Either she knew that this matter might involve me and came to report it. β
Speaking of this, the queen squinted her eyes and thought thoughtfully, "The mother of the Lu family, the Huang family, has always done things for me in her early years, but it's a pity that this person is shrewd and confused for a while, and he inexplicably regarded Brother and Sister Song as a big enemy, and almost put the whole family in it!" Although I thought about it for many years at that time, I mediated and saved the rest of the Lu family, but the friendship with the Lu family also ended. After that, I didn't take care of this family anymore - now that the Lu family is suspected of being related to the Qiongzhou incident, Brother and Sister Song immediately thought of me, I'm a little unsure, what kind of mind does she have? β
After all, since the Huang family's maiden biological mother, the Huang family, had been Empress Wei's arm, even if Empress Wei never summoned the Lu family after the Huang family went, but with the current situation of the Lu family, if Empress Wei had something to tell her to go over, she would most likely seize the opportunity and firmly hug the queen's thigh.
Therefore, Song Yixiao has reason to suspect that the main envoy behind the Lu family is Empress Wei.
And Empress Wei also has a reason to attack the eldest princess and his wife - at that time, the eldest princess of the country had been picking her nose and eyes in the East Palace because of her grievances with Emperor Duanhua's biological mother, Empress Dowager Cui, and Empress Wei, as the original wife of Emperor Duanhua, was not less humiliated.
As the Son of Heaven, Emperor Duanhua has still had a grudge against the eldest princess of the Daiguo, not to mention Empress Wei's daughter?
In addition, Emperor Duanhua is still young, but he currently has only one prince under his knees, and the queen's position is stable - but this does not mean that Empress Wei's mother and son can sit back and relax - there is a way to seek wealth and danger, and there are always some people who do everything to reach the sky in order to ascend to the sky in one step.
What's more, how much the Empress Dowager attaches importance to the eldest princess of the country, in the past few months, the government and the opposition have seen it.
If this will be revealed that Empress Wei is the eldest princess and his wife. The mastermind behind the scenes, Empress Wei believes that the Empress Dowager will definitely fight with her, and she doesn't feel that Emperor Duanhua's courage can suppress the Empress Dowager.
In this way, he fell down, and Emperor Duanhua, who was not deep in the city, even if he had the heart, how could he protect the young prince?
At that time, this Darui River Mountain, God knows which vixen will be cheaper!
So the possibility of this thing coming at you is not small.
Empress Wei turned her mind around, her expression gradually became solemn, and she said, "No matter what, let's check it out on the Lu family's side!" β
After a pause, he said, "The Cui family also keeps an eye on me!" β
Wei Yinlian also knew a little about the inside story of the year, and was surprised when he heard this: "Sister suspects the Cui family? β
"It's cold in the heights." Empress Wei narrowed her eyes and said, "It's always right to be careful!" β
The Yanguo Mansion and the Fengzhou Wei clan shot at the same time, although the Lu clan held a large amount of money from the Jiangnan Song clan, he was not the head of the family in the end, and his talents were limited, and within a few days, what she did was investigated by the two families-
The eldest princess and his wife's self. In the end, it was indeed the person she sent who used a portable jade pendant of His Majesty as a proof, so that the eldest princess and his wife believed that they had received the holy decree that followed. As much as possible, if Emperor Duanhua is happy, as long as the Empress Dowager dies, Emperor Duanhua will send the eldest princess and her family, including Ji Zifu and his wife, down!
"Then where did that jade pendant come from?" Jian Xubai frowned slightly and asked Lu Qinghong, who was in charge of this matter.
Lu Qinghong said with a solemn face: "That jade pendant has been verified to be indeed owned by His Majesty, and it is a piece that is often worn. β
After a pause, "But this jade pendant, at the beginning of the year, because His Royal Highness the King of Shu said that it was good, His Majesty took it off casually and rewarded it to His Royal Highness the King of Shu!" β
And everyone knows that among the brothers of the King of Shu, he has the best relationship with King Su.
Now the jade pendant that Emperor Duanhua rewarded to the King of Shu was used to force the eldest princess and his wife to death - who is the real culprit behind the scenes, don't ask!
Especially the jade pendant, it was not Emperor Duanhua who took the initiative to reward it to the King of Shu, it was the King of Shu who said it was good, and Emperor Duanhua gave it to him.
From this point of view, it is difficult to say whether the King of Shu really likes the jade pendant, or whether he was instructed by the King of Su to deliberately take the jade pendant!
Jian Xubai's face also became ugly: "Are you sure it's the one that the King of Shu is leaving?" Not a copy? You also know that the reason why His Majesty was suspicious of me was because of the so-called white jade bamboo hairpin! β
"The people on the queen's side personally confirmed it." Lu Qinghong sighed, "The plan is the piece that His Majesty personally untied and handed to His Royal Highness the King of Shu - the most important thing is that after the Queen Mother heard the news, she sent someone to quietly check the private treasury of His Royal Highness the King of Shu, and found that there was indeed no jade pendant inside!" β
"It's all too obvious." Jian Xubai was silent for a while, trying to find an excuse for King Su, "Is it possible that other people want to frame His Royal Highness King Su, so start with His Royal Highness King Shu?" After all, how can Princess Su and our husband and wife be considered intimate, even if His Royal Highness King Su has any plans, how can he count our husband and wife into it? β
Lu Qinghong groaned: "Grandpa, a certain family tells the truth: although King Su is smart, he is young in the end!" In such a big event, let alone Princess Su, even His Royal Highness King Su, I'm afraid he may not be able to speak! The ones who really made up their minds were the Su family and the like. β
And the Su family and the Yanguo Mansion have always been political enemies, not to mention that under the threat of a slim future, what can't the Su family do?
Not to mention that they have never been close and good friends with the Yanguo Mansion, even if they are, in order to earn a little life for the Heclan, they may not be able to do something that stabs their friends twice!
"According to what you say, this thing was really done by King Su?" Jian Xubai blushed for a long time before he said.
"Not necessarily!" Who wanted Lu Qinghong to shake his head again, and said, "The queen's mother has found some clues on the Cui family's side, and it is very likely that Madame's speculation is true." The real culprit behind this matter is exactly what the Cui family did in order to restore their favor! β
Seeing Jian Xubai's brows furrowed, he said again, "But this matter has not yet been implemented, and the queen's people are still looking for evidence - after all, the Cui family is Your Majesty's foreign family, even if Your Majesty has no good impression of them because of the matter of the concubine Cui Jianpi, but if the flesh and blood are there, Your Majesty will definitely not move them easily!" β
Jian Xubai pondered for a while and said, "If there is definite news over there, report to me immediately!" β
This "immediately" actually didn't take long, because the background of Empress Wei's mother's family is not comparable to the Cui family at all.
So in the afternoon of the next day, the queen handed over a message to the Yanguo Mansion: The matter has come to light. It's really from the Cui family!
And the purpose is just as Song Yixiao speculated, in order to please Emperor Duanhua!
The Wei family also found out a detail, the reason why the Cui family thought of doing this was mainly because they privately sent a generous gift to King Liang, asking King Liang to help ease his cheeks in front of Emperor Duanhua, so that Emperor Duanhua would no longer be angry with his uncle's family because of Cui Jian's pity, and when he gave his uncle a chance to serve the country, King Liang reminded them that if they want to get Emperor Duanhua's attention, they must share their worries for Emperor Duanhua!
For Empress Wei, who has always suspected that King Liang is the real culprit of smallpox, this detail is simply a treasure!
"The last time I dripped, I don't know if King Liang was really innocent, or if he was fooled by what method he used." Empress Wei said secretly, "This time, you can't let him perfunctory anything, you must use this opportunity to force out his true face!" β
Thinking so, the queen simply told the truth about the smallpox in the Yanguo Mansion in order to gain the support of Jian Xubai and his wife, and turned around a few times against King Liang's thoughts - in the end, he dispelled it!
After all, this matter involves Gu Shao and the crime of bullying the monarch, even if Empress Wei has always had a good relationship with the Yanguo Mansion, she doesn't want to rush to hand over such a handle.
What's more, even without the help of Jian Xubai and his wife, the queen felt that she was not without a chance to clean up King Liang alone!
After thinking for a while, she sent someone to the Yanguo Mansion to tell Jian Xubai: "This is a big matter! When I didn't find out before, in order to avoid His Majesty's worry, I didn't tell Your Majesty about it; Now that the facts are there, if you hide it from Your Majesty any longer, you will be a bully! It's just that the matter involves His Majesty's foreign family, and the palace is not very convenient, so please go to the palace and talk to Your Majesty Chen! β
After receiving the news, Jian Xubai explained a few words to his wife and entered the palace.
When Emperor Duanhua heard this, he was so shocked that he almost overturned the imperial case: "It's simply unreasonable!" Outrageous!!! β
I can't help him not vomit blood - for the sake of the eldest princess and his wife. End, how long has the Queen Mother been tossing him?
Originally, he always thought that his little aunt and uncle couldn't stand the huge gap and took the narrow road, although he felt that they deserved such an ending, but because of this, he was embarrassed, angry, and troublesome by the Queen Mother, and he also admitted it!
As a result, I now know that the two co-authors of this couple may not have been. As much as possible, then Emperor Duanhua doesn't need to be troubled by the Empress Dowager - he has suffered in vain for the past few months, okay?!
Before, he thought that Pei Yourui, the county lord of Jingmin, could be used to vent to the Queen Mother at a critical moment!
He is the one who has made the Empress Dowager vent for so long on behalf of the real culprit!
You can imagine the anger of Emperor Duanhua at this moment!
Because Empress Wei and Jian Xubai came to tell the story after they found out, otherwise wouldn't he have to be kept in the dark?
Emperor Duanhua was embarrassed to get angry with these two people, and after reading the evidence presented, without saying a word, he ordered someone to summon King Liang - this is for sure, after all, Empress Wei, who arrived later, hinted that the reason why the Cui family made such a whole is probably to take King Liang's words as the meaning of Emperor Duanhua!
"The third brother is really confused!" In front of Jian Xubai, Empress Wei said, "He also grew up in the palace, why don't you understand the proportions of this speech?" To say that he did this as a false decree; To put it mildly, he is simply deliberately smearing the holy reputation and putting His Majesty in a state of treachery and unfilial piety! β
ββEmperor Duanhua personally promised Emperor Xianjia that he would give the eldest princess of Daiguo a way out of life no matter what!
Empress Wei's words made Emperor Duanhua more and more angry, and ordered to summon his uncle Cui Ziyu, the king of Shu, and even the female dependent of the Lu family ordered to immediately detain Xuanming Palace to confront him, and ordered: "Gu Shao also come!" Let him see what kind of government he is adding! There is such a thing under my nose, what is he, the prime minister, doing?!! β
This is the pillar that Emperor Xianjia specially left to him, but look at what has happened to him since he ascended the throne, in addition to presiding over the government and keeping the world in order, has Gu Shao done a few things to solve problems for him? !
