Chapter 176: Marriage by Order
"The Empress Qi, the emperor and the prince and the ministers have visited." The maid cautiously stepped forward to pray.
"Today's Jiaofang Hall in the palace is really lively, the palace knows, so please invite the emperor and all the adults to come to the backyard of the palace." Huayan lowered his head and tasted tea by himself.
"Hongu's father is here?" Zhu Biyu hurriedly called the maid and got up and asked.
The maid was stunned for a while, carefully glanced at the painting, and saw that she had no reaction, so she replied: "Back to the concubine Niangniang, General Zhu is also here." ”
"Okay, it's none of your business, let's go down." After Zhu Biyu finished the call, she glanced at the painting triumphantly, and her eyes seemed to say, "Wait and see, I will let my father refer to you to the emperor and see how you end!" ”
When Lilinlang, who was still suppressed on the ground, heard that the fourth prince was coming, her face suddenly shone brightly, she looked at the painting fiercely and laughed wildly, and scolded secretly in her heart, "The prince is finally here, I see how long you can be arrogant!" ”
Liu Che'er took the lead, strode towards the back garden of Jiaofang Palace, and as soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he saw this abnormal scene.
He was slightly stunned, crossed Zhu Biyu, and walked forward quickly.
Zhu Biyu and Xu Suhua immediately stood up and saluted, "The concubines see the emperor, and the emperor is blessed with Jin'an!" ”
"The courtier Xu Suhua has seen the emperor, and the emperor is auspicious!"
Liu Che'er hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Let's be even!" ”
"Emperor Xie!"
Xu Suhua got up slowly, but saw that Huayan was still sitting motionless, and saw that the emperor did not blame him, but took the initiative to come forward, and the awe of Huayan in his heart increased a lot.
Xu Xianzhi and Zhu Chaoshi also followed, and when they saw this situation, they couldn't help but be shocked.
The four princesses of the dignified hall knelt in public, or under the suppression of the guards, which shows what a fierce contradiction had just happened in the Jiaofang Palace.
Liu Yikang, who was walking last, just raised his foot and walked in the door, and his heart 'chuckled'. He saw the suppressed Tatelinlang's distress gaze, and he felt very sorry in his heart, and was looking for an opportunity to ask Huayan what was going on, but was interrupted by her again.
Only then did Hua Yan stand up and ask with a smile: "The emperor is in a hurry, what's the urgency?" ”
As she was talking, her eyes were instantly attracted by the people behind Liu Che'er, and Xiao Minglang also came.
Xiao Gongzi, he's here too? Xu Suhua stood still, but looked at Xiao Minglang with happy eyes.
Liu Che'er glanced at Lily Linlang, avoided talking about it, and said: "Yan'er, I just received the news that Xie Hui really started to launch a large army and prepare to rebel, and in the early hours of this morning, he has officially dispatched in the direction of the capital!" I expected that if I didn't stop it, they would be in the city in two days at most! ”
"So fast? We left three days later, and the next day he took the initiative. It's like an appointment. He turned his gaze back and sat back down, thoughtful.
Xiao Minglang looked at Xu Xianzhi on the side, his heart was full of doubts, he stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that if he goes to war, the terrain of Huanggu Mountain is the most favorable for us, while his position is not stable, it is better to set off immediately, just to catch him off guard." ”
Zhu Chaoshi stepped forward and echoed: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Xiao Gongzi said is very true!" We can no longer let Xie Hui make waves and disturb the people of the world! ”
"The daughter has seen her father!" Zhu Biyu didn't know the times, and suddenly stepped forward and bowed.
Zhu Chaoshi showed a stern gaze to make her stand back, still respectfully facing the emperor.
Liu Che'er was not affected by Zhu Biyu, nodded and said, "I also thought so," he turned to Huayan and asked, "What does Yan'er think?" ”
Huayan did not agree immediately, but glanced at Xu Xianzhi with doubtful eyes, and saw that he stood silently without saying a word, and suddenly asked him, "Does Xu Gong have a different opinion?" ”
Xu Xianzhi raised his head in surprise, thought for a while, and replied hesitantly: "The minister seconded the proposal, the minister seconded the proposal......"
The painter raised his eyebrows, smiled lightly, looked at Xiao Minglang and said: "Xiao Gongzi is incomparably talented, and he can see the clues at a glance, and the concubines also think it is very good." ”
Xiao Minglang's heart froze, and she looked at the painting in surprise, could it be that she also noticed something?
Seeing that Huayan agreed, Liu Che'er patted the case and said, "Okay! Set off at the beginning of the day, and the battle plan remains the same! ”
"Your Majesty, don't worry, this battle will be the last battle." Hua Yan nodded and smiled slightly.
Several people were discussing the war, and they completely forgot about the punishment of Tatelinlang.
After kneeling for most of the day, Tatelinlang's knees had long been unconscious, she looked at the group of people in front of her with hatred, and suddenly deliberately shouted, "Ouch! It hurts me! ”
Liu Yikang was impatient, and finally mustered up the courage and stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive the princess of this king!" ”
Liu Che'er was slightly embarrassed, and looked at the painting with an inquiring gaze.
Huayan only lowered his head and played with the teacup in his hand, ignoring it.
Liu Che'er knew that Huayan had a temperament, if she hadn't made an unforgivable mistake, how could she easily annoy her and punish her personally.
Liu Che'er saw that Huayan didn't intend to forgive, so she had no choice but to say: "Brother Kang, there are no rules, I believe that the queen's punishment of the princess must be for a reason." The queen of the harem is big, and I ......"
Huayan bowed his head and was silent, without the slightest intention of relieving Liu Yikang.
Zhu Biyu took advantage of the situation and added fuel and vinegar: "Your Majesty, you said that there are no rules, but the queen is right to use lynching indiscriminately?" ”
Liu Che'er's face sank, and she asked lightly: "It seems that the concubine has different opinions on the queen's decision?" ”
Hearing Liu Che'er's words, Zhu Biyu stood up proudly as if she had received a holy decree, and said: "Your Majesty, the princess only said a few words, and she forced the princess to kneel down and admit her mistake for no reason, isn't this nonsense?!" ”
"Yu'er! Don't be rude! Zhu Chaoshi snorted lightly, pressed Zhu Biyu back, and stepped forward to apologize: "The emperor and queen forgive their sins, and blame the ministers for not being able to discipline them, so they lost their manners in front of the saint and the holy queen." If the emperor and queen want to punish, punish Weichen! ”
"This ......"
If he didn't paint his face, Liu Che'er didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
Everyone's eyes turned to the painting.
Hua Yan gently put down the teacup, and then smiled: "General Zhu's words are serious, Sister Biyu is straightforward, lively and cheerful, and the palace likes it very much, how can you blame her." General, please get up! ”
Zhu Chaoshi was stunned for a while, and hurriedly got up to thank him.
Zhu Biyu saw that her father was so cautious in front of Huayan, and the anger in her heart against Huayan was nowhere to go, so she simply stomped her feet and returned to the palace.
With a flick of his hand, the guard retreated.
Liu Yikang finally relented, leaned over and thanked him, "Thank you for the queen's magnanimity!" After saying that, he walked to Tatelinlang's side and helped her up.
Liu Yikang's actions made the painting a little impressive, according to his usual temperament, he should have complained to himself for his beloved concubine, and this son actually became submissive, which had to surprise her.
Since the battle of Yunlongmen, Liu Yikang has deeply understood the power of painting Yan, even if there is no 100,000 troops, with her wisdom and resourcefulness, Taoyuan's power is enough to shake the entire imperial court.
He Liu Yikang was insignificant compared to him, but fortunately, he secretly kept a hand and did not join the counterattack on the imperial court, which made Hua Yan spare their lives.
Now it seems that Liu Che'er has ascended the throne as the emperor, but the actual real power is all controlled in the hands of Huayan.
How could he openly contradict her?
It's a pity that Tatelinlang is too angry and can't take care of this at all.
Huayan was no longer embarrassed, and said: "Does the princess have any objections to the execution of the palace?" ”
When Linlang received Liu Yikang's reminder, she had to grit her teeth and swallow her anger, "Linlang doesn't dare." ”
Hua Yan nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "The princess has also worked hard, go back and rest." ”
"Yes!"
Tateshi Linlang glared at Huayan fiercely, and limped back with Liu Yikang in his arms.
"Your Majesty, the ministers have also retired!" Xiao Minglang leaned over and said.
"Xiao Gongzi is slow!" Xu Xianzhi flicked his hand to stop it, suddenly stepped forward, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has a reluctant request." ”
Liu Che'er asked, "What's the matter with Gong Xu?" ”
Xu Xianzhi looked at his daughter, then at Xiao Minglang, and then said: "Your Majesty, Weichen's daughter, returned to Beijing from Suzhou a few days ago, and was unfortunately kidnapped by robbers on the way. The minister felt in his heart, thinking that Xiao Gongzi did not love fame, fortune and money, but his family was not married, and the minister thought that marrying his daughter into his family would be regarded as repaying this kindness. The minister hopes that the emperor can be the mediator for the minister, so as to make a good story. ”
"What?!" Liu Che'er got up and was at a loss.
On the contrary, Xiao Minglang seemed much calmer, he only glanced at the painting face, and then turned to look at the ground.
Xu Suhua didn't expect his father's words, so he couldn't raise his head shyly.
Hua Yan suddenly slapped the case angrily, and said resolutely: "This palace does not agree!" ”
Everyone looked at her in amazement, waiting for her explanation.
But he didn't say a word.
Okay, you Xu Xianzhi, it turns out that this is what you have been brewing!
"Please make it happen!"
Hua Yan stood up incredulously, unable to believe that the words just now came from Xiao Minglang's mouth, she asked tremblingly, "What did you say?" ”
"Minister, please ask the emperor and queen to complete this marriage!" Xiao Minglang lowered his head and said resolutely.
Huayan only felt dizzy, and took a few steps back weakly, she looked at Xiao Minglang, and then at Xu Suhua, the sadness in her heart knocked over the chest wall, she fell back to the tea table, and said with a smile: "Okay, this palace will fulfill your ......"
After speaking, he staggered away with his sleeves brushed up.
Liu Che'er froze in place, and suddenly grabbed Xiao Minglang's arm as if he was ecstatic and asked, "Minglang, do you really want to marry Xu Suhua?!" ”
Xiao Minglang nodded numbly, looked at him in a trance and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is leaving......
Liu Che'er's heart froze, and suddenly he understood something, he suddenly let go of his hands and saw him away with tears in his eyes.
He knew that the moment the door in front of him closed, he would lose one of his best friends forever.
His heart seemed to be divided into two petals, one of fire and the other of ice, and they collided violently, bursting into a vast river......
