423 Hate (1)
"Could it be that later, they thought of begging Lan Concubine?" Xie Wan asked. , the latest chapter access: .
Otherwise, what would Old Madam Xu do when she took her child to see Concubine Lan? Although Concubine Lan was quite scheming, the Xu family at that time would not cause any conflict to her at all, and coupled with the friendship she had when she was a child, she should probably agree.
"At this point in the story, I can probably guess the plot later.
Lan Concubine took Dou Chen to beg Lan Concubine, hoping to use her influence on the emperor to get the emperor to let go of the Dou family's Xu family, but she didn't expect that Lan Concubine and Prince Hui'an were actually in the bureau of the husband and wife of the princess of the country, she and Dou Chen were affected, and later Dou Chen also contracted smallpox, and died shortly after Prince Hui'an.
"And if my guess is correct, Mrs. Xu should also have contracted smallpox and died, right? At that time, they had such a big secret on their backs, so naturally they would not easily jump out and say it, and when their mother and son were killed, in fact, there was no point in mentioning it again. But what I'm curious about is that since Dou Chen is not dead, why do you send the urn containing his raw Geng to Prince Hui'an's underground palace?
"Seriously speaking, the really pitiful and innocent in this conspiracy is Prince Hui'an, Mrs. Xu and Dou Chen bumped into each other by themselves, and in the end, such an ending can only make people sigh that they are a little unlucky. If you want to say that you will retaliate against the palace because of this incident, it is untenable. Why is that? ”
Mrs. Dou looked at her in a daze, I don't know if it was because she had been talking for too long, or because she was still in a state of high mental tension, she looked a little wooden.
"I only know that Dou Chen is not dead, he was sent to Guangxi, I don't know what you said."
When she said she didn't know, her tone was steady and calm, she should really not know about interstellar ghouls.
Xie Wan was about to speak. A voice suddenly sounded outside the door: "I'll tell you the rest." ”
Outside the door walked in Dou Jin, who was holding his hands, and Yin Yu, who was holding his hands, the two of them were one condensed and the other was leisurely. One after the other walked in.
Yin Yu came in and exchanged glances with Xie Wan first, and then Dou Jin walked over. Sitting on the main seat where he used to sit, that is, the position of Xie Wan's left head, he glanced at the hundreds of people kneeling on the snow in the courtyard, and said, "Do you think that Old Madam Xu took Dou Chen to see Concubine Lan, is that what you think?" ”
Xie Wan raised his eyebrows: "Isn't it?" ”
"Of course not." Dou Jin snorted and said, "You would never have thought that Old Madam Xu would take my eldest brother Dou Chen to see Concubine Lan." It's just another conspiracy of Hoda. ”
At this time, not only Xie Wan was surprised, but even Yin Yu couldn't help but be moved.
These days, they have heard about the Huo family's life debt, which is enough to digest for a while, just based on the murder of the prince, Huo Da still doesn't know how to convict, this is another one, is it really true to that sentence, self-inflicted sin can't live?
Mrs. Dou got up and stepped aside from the moment Dou Jin came in, her face changed a few times in an instant, and she became sluggish again.
Dou Jin said: "Although Dou Chen is the son of Mrs. Xu, our Dou family is not the kind of small family, and there is a small family spirit everywhere. I didn't know I had a big brother. The year I was brought back, my world suddenly changed. I liked this kid very much, but I found out. What I like more about him is his hatred.
"But he's too young to know yet. It doesn't matter if he doesn't know, I can teach him hand-in-hand in the future. So I was very nice to him, and when Uchiko passed the door, I also explained that she had to be good to him. When he was so young, he was already regarded by me as a pawn. At that time, I didn't have the lofty ideals I have now, and even how to act was still vague, I just subconsciously cultivated him in this direction in case of emergency.
"At that time. I didn't know that Huoda's conspiracy also included people from the Dou family.
"When I was two years old, I played chess with the old lady one day. Seeing a small scar on his thumb, I asked him casually. What's going on with this injury. At that time, although the old lady had been to the battlefield, it was still difficult to fall on a small scar like this. Our old lady said that this was cut by the tip of Hoda's sword twenty years ago.
"The old lady has such a deep friendship with Huo Da, even if I already know that Old Madam Xu died in vain in that conspiracy, I don't feel that I should blame the Huo family for anything, because at that time, like you, I just thought that the old lady and Dou Chen were a little unlucky. So I was amazed that there were times when they met each other.
The old lady was silent for a while, and then abandoned the chess pieces and told me to beware of the Huo family.
"I'm very suspicious, is it because of what they did to Prince Hui'an? In fact, I don't like to see the Huo family very much, not only because of this incident, but also because they can be pampered for so many generations, and although the Huo family and the Dou family are world friends, the Dou family always feels three points shorter than him in front of the Huo family, I don't like such an unequal relationship.
"Moreover, I also thought about whether to tell the emperor about his murder of Prince Hui'an. But later I found out that I couldn't 'insert' a needle between the Huo family and the Yin family, and what was worse was that I had no evidence, and I would spread the news that the Dou family had defiled the show girl back then, which brought disaster to the Dou family, but this idea has always existed in my heart. When the old lady said this, I cheered up.
"He was urged by me again and again before telling me that Old Madam Xu took Dou Chen to see Concubine Lan that day, which was secretly arranged by Huo Da.
"When Dou Chen was two years old, he was taken to the house by the old lady as a nephew, although he hid it very well at first, but the two or three-year-old child, sometimes he still can't change the habit of calling him his father, it doesn't matter if he is once or twice, the number of times is too much, and other rooms in the house are a little suspicious. However, there are great-grandfathers and great-grandfathers and their wives pressing, but they don't dare to say anything.
"The Dou family has been thinking hard about good strategies in the past few years, and it is because of this that our old lady will think of entering the Chinese military camp to seek an official and a half-position, and make military achievements in the future, so that the emperor will be guilty in the future and make a merit to make a merit I am the latest chapter of Wang Qinian. But everyone didn't know that in order to stabilize his power in the court, Huoda had already listed our old lady as a target. ”
He snorted as he said this, and looked out the door, and his eyes became cold with the flying snowflakes.
"Do you mean that because General Dou was eager to make meritorious contributions, the Duke of Protector wanted to deal with the Dou family at that time?"
Yin Yu held his elbow and said with his eyebrows: "If that's the case, then why didn't he attack the old general directly, but chose to attack Old Madam Xu and Dou Chen?" Besides, didn't he also rise all the way up to the top of the ladder later? The Lord Protector has been in charge of the military camp for so many years, if he really wants to deal with him, he should not delay it for so long. ”
"Nope."
Dou Jin shook his head, "Huo Da is not the kind of person who can't tolerate meritorious heroes, with his Huo family's ability, it is impossible for him to suppress a subordinate official with such a small family." What's more, from a certain point of view, my father trusts him so much, and he can actually use my father to do a lot of things.
"Although the prince is Huoda's grandson, you don't necessarily know him. But I can also see that the prince is also wary of him. This vigilance may be due to the alertness you have cultivated since childhood, or it may be due to the keen sense of the time you spent with each other in those years, but in short, you do not trust your grandfather as much as the average grandson, am I right? ”
Yin Yu was noncommittal.
It is true that Huo Da, as his maternal grandfather, and the Huo family, as the maiden family of the crown princess, have indeed done their best. But it is precisely because of this effort that he always has a faint sense of insecurity, which does not alienate him from them, but subconsciously he will be defensive against them. So when he went to Yunnan, he didn't let Xie Wan live in Huo's house, nor did he tell them the news of his pretended exile.
He also knew that his doing this might cause the Huo family's dissatisfaction, but he would rather make them dissatisfied than the danger of being controlled.
And a few days ago, he heard from the mouth of the Protector how they conspired to murder a child less than three years old, and he really couldn't tell what kind of mood he felt.
If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he really couldn't believe that the high-ranking and powerful protector would actually be a murderer who harmed innocents - of course, the words murderer came out of his mouth a little unbelievable, he had also killed people, and there were hundreds, but he and Xie Wan would never hurt people because of selfish desires.
Empress Xiaoyi is his own grandmother, and from the perspective of filial piety, he should not criticize her, but from the perspective of human nature, he really can't agree with her approach.
The things to be dealt with in these days are one after another, and he doesn't have time to think about how to face this matter, and he doesn't have time to discuss it with the crown prince and princess in the face of the protector 'wife' who once murdered Prince Hui'an, but it is certain that for the Huo family, he is becoming more and more hopeful and fearful.
Dou Jin paused for a moment, suddenly smiled, and continued: "Huo Da's biggest worry is that the Protector Mansion will end up like other nobles, he is afraid that the Huo family will decline, and this worry has been there since the emperor came to power. Although our old lady is better with Huoda, he still can't get close to the emperor when he is there.
"But Huo Da told our old lady that the emperor has the heart to praise literature and belittle martial arts, because the emperor likes to play the art of balance, and the Huo family above the court has two or three out of ten military power in the country, which makes the emperor feel like a fish in his throat. But he only said it once, and it was a drunken gaffe. But this sentence was put in our old lady's heart.
"This is not because he has any selfish intentions, but it is associated with the Dou family, if the emperor wants to suppress the military and reduce the military power, then the Dou family, which is also a family of military generals, will it also decline?"
Dou Jin rested his elbows on the table, and the corners of his lips floated unfathomably. q
