Chapter 121: Affection
Although it is very important for me to click on the recommended collection on the shelf, the biggest enemy of Sister Hai is still time, as long as I can squeeze out time, I will definitely write more and update more, but after all, I still have my own job to do, and please forgive me at this point~~~
My home network cable is still in irregular twitching, sometimes good and sometimes bad, and the upgrade is actually upgraded to this effect? It's better not to rise~~
_____________________It's a headless dividing line__________
After talking with Concubine Jing for a while, Emperor Liang felt sleepy, so he moved to the bed to sleep peacefully. Concubine Jing put down the gauze tent, changed the incense in the furnace, and as soon as she sat down, a sense of worry rose in her heart.
There is a way to know her son Mo Ruo's mother, and Concubine Jing can't understand the temperament of her son Xiao Jingyan very well. Although she was not familiar with who Wei Zheng was, with his identity as the deputy general of the Chifeather Battalion, Concubine Jing also knew that Jing Yan would never sit idly by.
But what should be done...... Asking the emperor for mercy? At a time when there is no hope of rehabilitation, there is no reason to pardon the rebels; Open up the joints for Wei Zheng up and down? Xia Jiang, the first figure of the hanging mirror, was opening his net and waiting for others to crash in; Using force to forcibly save people? This is the next step to turn over once you miss......
Concubine Jing, who was thinking about it and thinking about it and was inconclusive, sighed, put aside her chaotic thoughts, stood up, walked to the small room in the outer hall, ordered someone to bring fresh plum rui, sat down and sifted it by hand, and prepared to make plum cake with steamed juice.
The maid Xin'er walked up with a wooden box in her hand at this time, and saluted: "Niangniang, this is the best hazelnut sent by the Inner Court Division, do you want to see it?" ”
Concubine Jing only glanced at it slightly, and then said, "Let it go." ”
"Yes." Xin'er put the wooden box on the shelf, came over and shook the sieve board for Concubine Jing, and said with a smile, "Niangniang, is it because the hazelnuts that enter the inner court are not good?" It's been a long time since you've made hazelnut cake for His Royal Highness King Jing, didn't you say that it was His Highness's favorite food? ”
Concubine Jing stopped her hand that was rummaging through Mei Rui, her eyes condensed slightly.
How long has it been since you did it? I haven't made it since I started making double food boxes...... Jing Yan is a good boy who is not a picky eater, and the so-called favorite food is just that he will pick it up first when he gives him a lot of things, and if he doesn't give it to him, he won't think about it in particular, so after so long, he didn't notice this change.
It's really funny to think about, obviously a pair of good friends, but one loves to eat hazelnuts the most, and the other is a person who will be red and breathless if he accidentally eats it, and he has to be drugged and vomit to be good, this is probably the only place where the two of them don't get along......
I hope that this time in this crisis, that person can also persuade Jing Yan's impatience and find a way to get through it safely.
"Niangniang, when the slave maid came back just now, she met Concubine Hui's driver on the road, and when she saw her being supported, her face was swollen from crying," Xin'er lowered her voice and said the news in the palace, "I heard that Gonggong Qi said that she came out of Zhengyang Palace, and she must have been scolded by the queen mother." ”
Concubine Jing frowned and said, "What are you doing inquiring about these things?" ”
"The slave didn't inquire," Xin'er said busily, "It was Father-in-law Qi himself who told me, I don't believe that Niangniang asked Father-in-law Qi ......."
"Okay," Concubine Jing smiled faintly, "It's not a big deal, but I tell you that there are rules in the palace and don't get into trouble." ”
"The slave understands." Xin'er stuck out her tongue coquettishly and covered her mouth exaggeratedly.
In fact, Concubine Jing already knew about what Xin'er said. Concubine Hui is the mother of the third son of the emperor, King Yu, who is very senior in the palace, honest, and has always been unfavored. King Yu took a fancy to the daughter of a small official last month, and was ready to be accepted as a side concubine, and before the verbal agreement was made, this daughter was favored by Zhu Yue, the mother and brother of Princess Yu. The little official coveted the power of the king, lied that his daughter had a wind disease, and quietly sent it to the Zhu Mansion without telling King Yu. Later, the rumors were revealed and were known by King Yu. No matter how close he is, after all, it is the prince's heart, he is angry, he sends someone to the door to ask, the little official is afraid, he escapes from the back door in a panic, and falls into the water and dies when he is chased. The daughter cried when she heard the news, and Zhu Yue, in order to vent her anger for the concubine, asked a good friend of the imperial history to impeach King Yu and force him to die, and complained to the queen through Princess Yu. Due to the New Year's Festival, the case has not been reported for the time being, but Concubine Hui has been scolded by the queen many times on the charge of not being strict with her godson.
Regarding the affairs of the harem, Concubine Jing has always been silent, but listening to Xin'er's words, remembering that tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, there are many important occasions, after thinking about it, she got up and found two bags of medicine sachets and a box of ointment, and asked Xin'er to quietly go to Concubine Hui's palace and teach her to regulate her swollen eyes and face, so as not to be seen by Emperor Liang in the New Year's Festival, and even more blame.
At noon, Emperor Liang woke up and had lunch under the service of Concubine Jing, because he had to summon the Ministry of Rites Shangshu in the afternoon to finally confirm the ceremony, so he didn't stay long and drove away.
Since the emperor left, Concubine Jing began to look forward to her son coming in so that she could talk to him, but until the evening, there was still no trace of King Jing, and I thought he would not come.
However, when Concubine Jing was looking forward to not seeing her repeatedly, Mei Changsu, who missed King Jing yesterday, was pleased to receive the message that King Jing had entered the secret room and was waiting.
His physical condition has improved a little today, and he has begun to enter the recovery period, and he walked around the hospital in the morning, feeling that his body is not as heavy as before. However, for the sake of prudence, before he entered the secret room, Li Gang and Zhen Ping still insisted that he take Feiliu with him.
Opening the door of the stone room, Mei Changsu was slightly stunned as soon as he stepped in.
Because what was waiting in front of him was not King Jing alone.
"I've seen His Royal Highness King Jing. General Lie also came...... "Although he was a little surprised, Mei Changsu immediately understood and stepped forward to greet him, "Su is sick and sick, and he has been suffering for many days, I am afraid that I have missed a lot of things about His Royal Highness, please forgive me." ”
"Sir, please take a seat." King Jing bowed to greet him, "Mr. is still recuperating, so I shouldn't disturb him, but there is something urgent, so I have to come, please ask Mr. to give me an idea." ”
"Your Highness is polite," Mei Changsu said straight to the point, "Is it for the newly arrested Wei Zheng?" ”
King Jing couldn't help but be surprised, "How did Mr. know?" ”
Mei Changsu stared at the Zhonglang General Lie Zhanying, who was standing behind King Jing with a worried expression, and said lightly: "Su was ordered by His Royal Highness to investigate the old case of Chiyan back then, dare not be unsatisfied?" However, Wei Zheng's arrest was only known a few days ago, and although Jiang Zuomeng tried his best to save him, he failed to succeed and let Wei Zheng be escorted to the capital. If you want to come to this day, Your Highness should also get the news, not to mention that according to Su's knowledge, General Lie had a good relationship with Wei Zheng back then, and since he came with him on purpose, he must have to talk about this matter. ”
"Yes, yes," Lie Zhanying said hurriedly, "I really want to talk about this matter." I thought that Wei Zheng had died unjustly and tragically, but fortunately he was still in the world. It's just that now he is in prison, his life hangs in the balance, and he must be rescued urgently. The prince often said that Mr. is unparalleled in the world in wisdom, and please work hard and give me some advice! ”
"General Lie's friendship is deep and touching. But the general is now the number one confidant in King Jing's mansion, and the interests of His Royal Highness should be considered first in everything. Mei Changsu deliberately slowed down his speech and said, "The so-called injustice is just what we are talking about here." On the bright side, Wei Zheng's identity is a rebel, no one can deny it, can the general do it? ”
Lie Zhanying hurriedly said: "It is because he is accused of being a rebel that he has to ......."
"Please calm down, General." Mei Changsu made a reassuring gesture, "I understand your feelings, but please think about it, no matter what idea I come up with, it will ultimately be implemented by His Highness." Over the years, His Royal Highness has suffered many oppressions and grievances for the Chiyan case, and the general knows that his appearance will inevitably trigger His Majesty's memory and break the good situation of his current grace. ”
"Today in front of the emperor, I have already annoyed my father and emperor about this matter," King Jing said stiffly, "So Mr. Su doesn't have to look ahead and backwards, please think of a way to solve the crisis first." ”
"Yes...... Mei Changsu glanced at him, "First ask Your Highness to elaborate on the specific situation." ”
King Jing has a good memory, and since he entered the hall, he has basically retold what everyone said, and in the end, his face became more and more gloomy, obviously arousing anger again.
"Your Highness," Mei Changsu shook his head and sighed, "Xia Jiang is setting a trap to lure you into the shortlist, don't you notice?" ”
"I know," King Jing gritted his teeth, "but for me, there are some things that cannot be compromised. ”
"Today, Xia Jiang and King Yu originally wanted to arrange a fierce conflict between you and His Majesty, but they were interrupted halfway, and you also restrained yourself, so they didn't get the pre-effective effect, so they must be a little disappointed. But since Wei Zheng is still in their hands, they will take this first move. No matter what method you take to rescue Wei Zheng, Your Highness, you will fall into their traps, Your Highness knows? ”
King Jing nodded, "Of course I understand this. The old case of Chiyan is the deepest shadow between me and my father. Xia Jiang used Wei Zheng to provoke me to act, just to let my father understand that I still have old hatred in my heart and want to overturn the case, once I am given power and status, I will be a dangerous prince who threatens my father, because anyway, in this case back then, the person who was most responsible was my father himself. ”
"Your Highness understands in your heart," Mei Changsu's eyes were as quiet and cold as a frozen lake, "You have always sympathized with the people in the Red Flame, this attitude is known to the world, from this point of view, the conflict between you and Your Majesty today is normal, he won't think too much, and he can endure it." But His Highness must understand that this level is already the limit. Your Majesty is not a soft-hearted man, and if he feels that you have truly challenged his authority, he will deal with you mercilessly, without the slightest hesitation. In this way, King Qi's Yin Jian back then is in front of your Royal Highness. ”
"Then ......" Lie Zhanying took turns looking at the two of them, and interjected eatingly, "What should Wei Zheng do?" ”
Mei Changsu closed his eyes with some difficulty, and said slowly: "What is Your Highness's great cause today, General Lie knows it in his heart. For Wei Zheng, what is difficult to give up is only affection, and in terms of interests, saving him has all kinds of harm but no benefit. If His Royal Highness wants to seek great things, he naturally has to give up one or two. ”
Lie Zhanying's face turned pale, but he couldn't find the words to refute, his lips moved for a long time, and Fang squeezed out a few words: "No...... Don't you save it? ”
"Alright, Zhan Ying," King Jing stood up with a cold face, "let's go." ”
"But Your Highness ......"
"Isn't it clear what Mr. Su means?" King Jing sneered, and every word seemed to burst out from between his teeth, "I actually thought that Mr. Su was a different strategist, but I didn't expect to see it clearly at this time, you are also easy to talk about, and there is no conscience in your eyes." If I follow the will of my husband, give up all the morality and human feelings in my heart, and only try to win the throne, then what is my original intention of taking the throne? Once I have really become such a heartless person, isn't my husband worried that I will also forget about the love he once helped me for other interests in the future? So far, Mr. is not willing to help, and I have nothing to say, you once sent Jiang Zuomeng to stop Wei Zheng, and you are also dedicated, so I didn't open my mouth about this matter. ”
"Your Highness!" Mei Changsu hurriedly took a few steps, blocking in front of Xiao Jingyan, but because of his uneven breath, it was difficult to continue speaking for a while, and he coughed violently. Although King Jing was angry, he was also a little soft-hearted and sad when he saw that he was sick and uncontrollable, so he stopped and did not force him to leave.
After coughing for a while, Mei Changsu calmed his breath and said in a low voice: "Listening to His Highness, did you decide to save Wei Zheng?" ”
"Yes."
"Even if it costs a lot to save him, maybe even if you put yourself into it, you may not be able to save it?"
"How do you know if you don't try?"
"Wei Zheng is just a lieutenant general of the Red Feather Battalion, is it worth it?"
"When I see Lin Shu after I die, if he asks me why I didn't save his lieutenant, can I answer him that it's not worth it?"
"Your Highness's affection, I already know it very well," Mei Changsu endured the emotional tumbling and took a deep breath, "but it still doesn't work." ”
"What?" King Jing was about to have a seizure, but he was held down. Although the hand between his arms was weak, he somehow did not break free.
"Your Highness can't save him, and you can't save him," Mei Changsu looked directly into King Jing's eyes, and said in a firm tone, "I'll come, I'll find a way to rescue Wei Zheng." ”
