Chapter 299: The Inside Story (Part II)
Jian Xubai is the prince's person, and it is impossible for this warm beauty not to know.
So as soon as the warm beauty said that, Jian Xubai asked her with understanding: "What do you want?" ”
- After all, once the news of Concubine Cui's intention to murder Emperor Xianjia spread, Emperor Xianjia would not be able to keep the prince's throne, but anyone who wants the prince to ascend the throne knows such news, then there must be only two choices: first, extinguish the mouth; Second, buying.
At that time, the location was outside the emperor's bedroom, and the time was that the emperor was talking with the prince inside, even if there was no one outside the bedroom, it was impossible for Jian Xubai to do anything to the warm beauty. What's more, although he has no ambiguity for the warm beauty, he is also an old man in the end, as long as the conditions offered by the warm beauty can be discussed, he is still more inclined to buy it.
But after hearing this, Nuan Meiren suddenly burst into tears for some reason, and sobbed: "I didn't dare to kill the king, so after I came back from Xifu Palace, I have been hiding from Concubine Cui's people!" But how could Concubine Cui let me go so easily? I've been going crazy for the past two days - I just heard that Your Majesty woke up, and I was afraid that Concubine Cui would kill me, so I hurried over, but fortunately, the maid in front of the palace gate was not embarrassed and let me in directly. ”
Speaking of this, her face showed a clear fear, "But now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is inside, if I go somewhere else, in case I fall into the hands of Concubine Cui's people......"
Looking at Jian Xu's white handsome but calm face, the warm beauty timidly said her request, "Can you go in and say a word for me, or let me wait here?" ”
"If you go in and tell the story now, you'll die faster!" When Jian Xubai heard this, how could he not know that the warm beauty was actually not coerced, but asked for help?
He sighed in his heart, turned a few thoughts, and finally decided to take a hand, and said in a low voice, "Uncle Huang has been pretending to be sick for most of the past half a year, as for the reason for pretending to be sick, you don't have to worry about it, in short, Concubine Cui's killing of the monarch is deliberately misled and even guided by the emperor's uncle, the picture is to ensure that after the prince ascends the throne, he will not deliberately deal with Aunt Daiguo because of his biological mother!" ”
Seeing that the warm beauty was discolored, he thought about it quickly, took off the hosta inserted in the red gold crown, and took out the antidote pill for her, "Since you have been to Xifu Palace, whether you agree to Concubine Cui's request or not, the imperial uncle will receive a notice sooner or later, and it is impossible to deny it, but now it is better to surrender." ”
The surrender that Jian Xubai said, of course, could not be to wait for the prince to leave, and confess to Emperor Xianjia in private - then the warm beauty will also die quickly.
After all, Emperor Xianjia wants to protect the prince's throne, and he must completely seal the matter of Concubine Cui's murder of the monarch.
In other words, an insider like Warm Beauty must be among the extinctions!
When Ji Su heard this, he couldn't help but interject: "But the grandfather's arrangement didn't hide the fact that Concubine Cui forced the warm beauty to kill the king!" ”
"Didn't you just say that even if the crown prince doesn't resent the imperial uncle because of Concubine Cui's death, he may be angry with Aunt Daiguo?" Jian Xubai snorted, "What you are worried about, how can the imperial uncle not think of it?" But it's not easy for the imperial uncle to ask, after all, the prince is just generous, but he is not a fool, if the imperial uncle asks, even if the prince doesn't doubt it now, he will sharpen it more in the future, maybe he will remember it one day? ”
He squinted slightly, "And the warm beauty is a ready-made candidate to test the prince!" ”
- The warm beauty offered the medicine of Emperor Xianjia in front of the prince, which directly led to the death of Concubine Cui; But if it weren't for the fact that the warm beauty "put an antidote pill from the lord of Wuhuan Country", what would happen to the emperor, no one could be sure!
In this way, for the prince, the warm beauty not only has the merit of saving the driver, but also is his indirect mother-killing enemy!
The prince's opinion on the disposition of this concubine is equivalent to his attitude towards the family of the acting princess in the future: for the prince, the acting princess is not only the sister of Emperor Xianjia's favor and connivance, but also the aunt who has been tirelessly bullying Concubine Cui and hostile to him for many years.
"If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asks to also dispose of the warm beauty, it will be fine; If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asks for a warm beauty to be lenient, although His Majesty will feel at ease for the family of the acting princess, but will he really spare the warm beauty like this? Ji Su pondered for a while, and euphemistically expressed his incomprehension, "In the end, Your Majesty also hopes that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will inherit the throne!" ”
And what the warm beauty knows, once it is leaked, it will definitely be a fatal blow to the prince!
Especially, "Warm Beauty has always been under the command of the queen mother before!" ”
"If the imperial aunt is sincere in defending the warm beauty, how can Concubine Cui summon her to Xifu Palace?" Jian Xubai shook his head and said, "Although I didn't carefully ask her what she was going to Xifu Palace that night, I can already confirm that Nuan Meiren is not loyal to the imperial aunt." So as long as she is freed from the control of the imperial aunt, she can't take risks for the imperial aunt. ”
He also said, "What's more, although Nuan Meiren knows Concubine Cui's scheme, does she have any evidence?" There is no evidence, as you said, she is still the person of the emperor's aunt on the surface, she said that Concubine Cui intended to murder the emperor's uncle, how many people do you think will believe it? What's more, the time when Concubine Cui did it was after the imperial uncle woke up, everyone knew that the imperial uncle loved the prince the most, and the imperial uncle woke up was only good for the prince - it was reasonable for Concubine Cui to murder the imperial uncle at this juncture! ”
Ji Su groaned: "The slave and maid understand: Nuan Mei is weak, and if she knows some secrets, she may not be able to set off any storms, but if she can't help, Your Majesty will not mind killing her for the sake of everything!" But after such a point of guidance from the grandfather, the warm beauty was able to test the prince for His Majesty...... In this way, His Majesty will keep her! ”
When he said this, he asked, "It's just that Grandpa thinks that the prince will spare the warm beauty?" ”
"Absolutely." Jian Xubai said disapprovingly, "Because I will remind the prince after dawn that although Nuan Meiren is only the prince's concubine, she refused to kill the king under the pressure of the prince's biological mother, and indirectly 'saved' the imperial uncle. Since the crown prince has pleaded for his biological mother who is bent on murdering the king, if it is the turn of this concubine who wants her to die, or ignores her, it will inevitably seem that the prince only reborn his mother neglects his biological father, so shouldn't it hurt the emperor's uncle's heart? How could the prince bear to break the heart of the imperial uncle? ”
Ji Su's face suddenly changed: "When Grandpa said this, the slave maid thought of something: Concubine Cui Niangniang's intention to murder Your Majesty, you also know it today, and Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince both know that you know, this may not be a good thing!" Forgive the slave maid for saying a heart-wrenching word: The prince will need the help of his grandfather, and he is protected by His Majesty, and he has a pure heart, even if he knows that his grandfather knows such a secret, he may not be able to do anything to his grandfather! But ...... future"
In the future, when the crown prince ascends the throne, becomes a family, and becomes the master, people will always change, and when the time comes, when I think about it, I know such a big secret, can I rest assured? !
The Ninety-Five Supreme is not happy and unassured, what will happen to Jian Xubai, you can imagine!
"This is also something that can't be helped, the content of the warm beauty talking to me outside the dormitory may be hidden from the ears of the secret guards, but she brought the decoction medicine inside, Xun Ying chased in with his feet and knocked over the medicine bowl, and asked the imperial doctor to track down the assassin...... "Then I will be outside the dormitory, can I not help and ask when I see so many things?" How can you be ignorant? ”
"That warm beauty is really a femme fatale!" Ji Su originally had a good impression of the warm beauty, although he didn't approve of Jian Xubai having anything to do with her, but he was also afraid that Jian Xubai would be discussed because of this, and his future reputation would be ruined, after all, the inner servant was also a man, and he would inevitably have a bit of appreciation and pity for the beauties of the country, but this would be a wish that Princess Feinuan of Wuhuan died early, and she didn't enter the harem of Darui, "If she hadn't told her grandfather that fateful secret outside His Majesty's bedroom, how could she have harmed her grandfather so far?!" ”
"She doesn't know the emperor's arrangement!" Jian Xubai's eyes flashed, and she said lightly, "I guess the reason why she said that to me was just a pretense for asking for help, after all, Xuanming Palace is not mine, she, as the palace concubine of the imperial uncle, wants to wait outside the dormitory, only I can avoid suspicion and walk away, can I still drive her away?" I'm afraid I'm worried that if the prince loses power, I won't be able to end well, and I can't bear it, I want to see if I have the best of both worlds? Even if not, give me a heads-up. ”
When he was stopped by a warm beauty in the courtyard when he entered the Xuanming Palace, he noticed that the other party still had a strange affection for him.
Although he didn't plan to respond, and thought that such a mentality was dangerous and irrational, but the confession of the warm beauty was a good intention after all, and Jian Xubai didn't want to owe this kindness - he knew the sex of his wife Song Yixiao. son, he is more generous than anyone else, and he keeps saying "There are more sisters in the backyard and it is lively", but he has to really think about other women, even if he doesn't get back to the house, it is estimated that Song Yixiao can kill him!
Yoo, Choi and Kim...... These ruts in the past, I don't want to follow in the footsteps at all, okay?
Therefore, the favor of the warm beauty can be returned as soon as possible, so that it will be better to go their own way in the future.
Speaking of this, he glanced at the copper leak in the corner of the house, and said, "You go to sleep for a while, and then pack up our things after dawn - yesterday the crown princess spoke for me in front of the imperial aunt, and I will go out of the palace and return to the house today, it is said that the crown princess will bring this news to the palace when she leaves the palace, let's go back as soon as possible, so as not to wait in the house in a hurry!" ”
Ji Su was stunned and said, "So many things happened tonight, can we go back tomorrow?" ”
"What's wrong with going back?" Jian Xubai wrote lightly, "Uncle Huang woke up and sat in Xuanming Palace in person, what else can he do?" As for these things that happened, they won't be spread out, so it's the same as if they didn't happen - the only thing that will be exposed is that Concubine Cui died of illness, but she is not my serious aunt, what does it have to do with me? After returning home, I prepared according to the rules, but I can't help but go to Xifu Palace to accompany the prince to wake the spirit? ! ”
- In fact, he helped the warm beauty before, and he also wanted to borrow the hand of the warm beauty to send Concubine Cui to Huangquan early!
After all, the matter of the little Cui family, although Concubine Cui swore that it had been revealed, but this lady had plucked Emperor Xianjia in her early years to guard against the princess of the country; This year, it was revealed that the princess of the dynasty had placed someone on her side, which shows that she is not a fair and upright person.
The Queen Mother is worried that Concubine Cui will not be able to spare her baby daughter after becoming the Queen Mother Cui, why is Jian Xubai worried that Concubine Cui will smile at her wife Song Yi in the future?
So after confirming that Emperor Xianjia would dispose of Concubine Cui tonight, Jian Xubai also let go of a matter on his mind, thinking about how to ask his wife for credit after returning home?
The next morning, it was calm.
Jian Xubai got up and packed up, and first went to the prince's side to tell the advice on leaving a way for the warm beauty, although the prince was still immersed in the grief of the death of his biological mother, he was not an unreasonable person, and he didn't want to put the warm beauty to death, he sighed when he heard the words, and said: "Ah Xu, what you said is very right, something like that happened last night, in fact, the most uncomfortable thing is the father!" Although the mother concubine is not the wife of her father, she has been with her father for so many years, and she is deeply blessed with holy grace, and she is ......"
When the prince said this, he choked sadly, and Jian Xubai hurriedly made him a cup of tea - after the prince took it and moistened his throat, he calmed down again, and said listlessly, "I'll go to plead for Nuan Meiren later, and ask my father for guilt by the way!" I really broke my father's heart last night! ”
Jian Xubai wished that Concubine Cui would die early, this would achieve the goal, and he was not in the mood to comfort the prince's pain of losing his mother, so after a few perfunctory words, he used the excuse of wanting to leave the palace and return to the house to retire: "The princess suggested that I go back to the house yesterday, and she has already helped me say hello to the house, if I don't go back today, I'm afraid the family will worry." Moreover, although the news sent by the palace recently said that everything was safe, but the crown princess suddenly said this, maybe she got any news that it was inconvenient to tell me directly? Your Highness also knows that my wife is pregnant, and there is no one else in the huge Grand Mansion, which is inevitably uneasy! ”
The prince knew why he entered the palace to serve the sick, and when he heard this, he showed shame and said: "It's all because I'm tired of you, and it's also a pity to mess around - now everyone is busy, and it's inconvenient for my younger brother and sister, and when my nephew lands, we will put wine to make amends for you!" ”
"What did Your Highness say?" Jian Xubai said a few polite words to him, and said goodbye to Dongnuan Pavilion and went to Emperor Xianjia's dormitory - unexpectedly stopped outside, Xun Ying explained: "Your Majesty has not yet recovered, and is still asleep." ”
Emperor Xianjia lay down for several days, and after waking up last night, he was very energetic, but as soon as Concubine Cui's murder came out, the emperor was worried, but he had to sleep again.
Jian Xubai knew this after calculating the hours last night, and he said that he was going to leave the palace with a few words of concern, Xun Ying expressed his understanding - anyway, Jian Xubai does not have to stay at present, from the queen mother to the emperor to the queen to the prince, they have always been tolerant and protective of him, Xun Ying has not been ordered, and he will not go against her, only said: "But Your Majesty will not be bothered." ”
"Then I'll go talk to the imperial aunt!" After saying goodbye to him, Jian Xubai went to find Queen Su, Queen Su would be annoyed, and she didn't have the heart to say more to him, so she nodded directly: "Bring some nourishing herbs back, that child has been alone in the house these days, and I don't know if he has lost weight?" ”
said a few words of concern for his nephew and daughter-in-law, and let him go.
