Chapter 106: The Secret of the Palace (1)
As soon as the word "blood test" came out, the eldest princess suddenly lost her voice: "What did you say?!" ”
Nie Xingji stopped talking.
The eldest princess immediately turned to look at the definition of Hou, and called out in disbelief: "Master Hou! ”
Definition Hou seemed to have guessed this ending, without a trace of panic or sophistry, he slowly got up from his seat and asked Nie Xingji: "How did you guess that?" ”
Nie Xingji raised his wrist: "Bracelet." ”
It is undeniable that Hou Duhao is defined as a man with outstanding style, even if he is over fifty years old, his elegant temperament has not been reduced in the slightest, but has precipitated a calm bearing.
This man from a poor family will be favored by the eldest princess Nie Zhiying by fate, and he will become a concubine. For decades, husband and wife have supported each other and loved each other, which has long become a good story in the Yan clan.
And this good story was finally ruthlessly broken today.
The imperial doctors suddenly realized that they were involved in an unspeakable palace secret, and they didn't know what to do, and they were at a loss when they stood still. A few acquaintances had secretly retreated into the dormitory and continued to stay in front of the dragon couch.
Although, the man on the dragon couch may no longer be the king of Yan.
Definition Hou closed his eyes, and the few marks that the years had drawn on the end of his eyes seemed to be different from others. There is no aging, no vicissitudes, only a bewildering maturity. Obviously, this style has always fascinated Helian Biyue until now.
"Let's do a blood test." Definition Hou slowly stretched out his left hand.
But was stopped by the eldest princess raising her hand: "Twilight, you explain it to me!" When she said this, she unconsciously brought a sad accusation and crying, but she did not cry.
Definition Hou took the lead in moistening the corners of his eyes: "Princess, I can't stand you...... I ......"
"It's not his fault." Helian Biyue suddenly said: "It's me." ”
She wiped the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, looked at the eldest princess and smiled: "Since I was the crown princess, I have been jealous of you, Nie Zhiying. You are Taizong's most beloved daughter, Nie Yang's most respected sister, you even set a precedent for a princess and have your own Tang Muyi...... There is also a husband who pampers you. ”
"So, you're here to provoke him?" The eldest princess asked sharply, and on impulse, she almost stepped forward to make a move with Helian Biyue, but was stopped by Nie Xingji.
Helian Biyue smiled and sighed: "Originally, I just thought that Twilight Hao was very good, not as moody and unpredictable as Nie Yang. And as the crown princess at the time, I didn't have much chance to meet him at all. ”
"At that time, I had been married into the East Palace for many years, and I had never been pregnant, and I was too depressed and my temper was not very good. Until one time, I had a big quarrel with Nie Yang and went back to my parents' house in anger. Helian Biyue paused for a moment: "My mother said that the sign of Hanxiangguan is very effective, let me enter the meditation to seek a child, and go to relax by the way...... That's where I met Twilight. ”
At this point, Helian Biyue showed a rare soft expression, and her tone became gentle: "Twilight Hao was in a bad mood that day, so the two of us talked to each other and complained about our grievances...... It's all men and women who have gone through personnel, and some things fall into place......"
"Naturally? Daomen is a pure place, you are ......" The eldest princess could not bear this sudden blow, and held back her anger: "You really teach me to be disgusting!" ”
Helian Biyue looked very calm: "You see, this is your problem. As a wife, don't you want to know why Twilight was in a bad mood at that time and ran to the Taoist temple alone to relax? ”
"The Queen Mother!" Definition Hou immediately said to stop: "I have long forgotten the old things of decades ago. ”
"But I haven't forgotten!" Helian Biyue's face froze, as if she was deliberately stimulating the eldest princess: "Dusk Hao, he came from a poor family, and married you, a high-flying princess, and he couldn't raise his head in front of his colleagues!" And he said to me, "You ......."
"Enough!" Definition Hou snorted angrily, frowned and looked at Helian Biyue: "The fault is mine from beginning to end, don't involve the princess." ”
"Let her speak!" The eldest princess didn't even look at the marquis, and gritted her teeth.
"Are you annoyed? I don't want to say it. Helian Biyue giggled, "Anyway, Twilight was very annoyed with you and infatuated with me at that time. ”
"What is he obsessed with you? Infatuated with you, whore? The face of the Yan royal family has been lost by you! The eldest princess smacked hard, leaning on Nie Xingji to barely stand firm, and imagined what happened later: "You gave birth to Nie Xingyi in embarrassment? Trying to tarnish my royal blood? ”
"I forced him." Helian Biyue took all the sins on his head: "Not long after returning from Hanxiangguan, I found out that I was pregnant. At that time, I was in a lot of trouble with Nie Yang, and he almost abolished me, but it was this kid who kept my place and allowed me to return to the East Palace. Thankfully, it's a boy, and my Yi'er was naturally made the crown prince. ”
"Twilight was very worried when he learned the truth, it was because I forced him to die, so he chose to remain silent." Helian Biyue looked at the definition of Hou, and recalled with a distant gaze: "I told him at the time that if the identity of this child is revealed one day, I will take the responsibility for the crime and will never implicate him. ”
"Queen Mother......" Hearing this, Princess Jincheng couldn't believe it at all, her eyes were rolling wildly, and she had no focus. Suddenly, she seemed to remember something, and suddenly asked, "What about me?" What about me? Whose child am I? ”
Helian Biyue raised her eyes to look at her, and her beloved daughter's eyes were full of pleading, begging herself to give her a satisfactory answer. Helian Biyue sighed: "Now that the matter is now, there is nothing to hide, and you are not the daughter of the king." ”
"Nope! No! Jincheng's legs were weak, he fell to the ground, he couldn't care about being pregnant anymore, and cried bitterly: "I don't believe it, I don't believe it!" ”
But although she said so, she knew in her heart that what Helian Biyue said was true. From childhood to adulthood, the birthday gifts of the eldest princess's mansion are more expensive than others. At the few banquets every year, the definition Hou would always look at her a few more times, and his eyes showed kindness.
She thought that her aunt and uncle loved her very much...... Originally......
The sound of "snap" woke everyone up, and it was the eldest princess who broke free from Nie Xing's mark and slapped Definition Hou hard. This noble, iron-blooded princess finally shed tears at this point, trembling and stretching out her hand to point angrily: "Twilight! Are you going to be ashamed? One Nie Xingyi is not enough? And a golden city? ”
At the same time as she stretched out her hand, the golden flying star moon-chasing bracelet also appeared from her wrist, and the eldest princess took off the bracelet fiercely and threw it on the ground in disgust: "I, Nie Zhiying, have set countless precedents for princesses. I'm going to open another one today! I want Hugh! ”
"Princess!" Definition Hou squatted down and picked up the bracelet, and wiped it with pity: "I know you won't forgive me...... In the past 20 years, I have had trouble sleeping and eating every night, and I am always afraid of the East Window incident...... But I'm not afraid of death, I'm afraid of you being sad, I'm afraid that the children will be disappointed in me......"
The eldest princess smiled sadly, and her anger was not settled: "The children are all older, and they have their own families. It is a shame for them to have a father like you! Explain it to them yourself! ”
Definition Hou lowered his head in shame, and in an instant he seemed to be ten years old, and he no longer had the demeanor of the past.
Princess Jincheng also fell to the ground and cried for a long time, and asked unwillingly: "For so many years, no one has found out?" The father was wise and decisive, and he didn't have any doubts? ”
Helian Biyue smiled disdainfully: "Your father, your mind is on Nie Xingji's mother and son. Besides, it just so happens that he and Twilight Hao are both phoenix-eyed, and your brother and sister are born a little like him. ”
Helian Biyue lowered her eyes and looked at her beloved daughter, and then looked at Hou Duhao. But Definition Hou just looked at the eldest princess intently, lest she make any mistakes.
"Won't you say a word?" She sighed again and asked him.
"What do you want me to say?" Hou closed his eyes slightly, was silent for a moment, and said: "When you and I met back then, I told you that the eldest princess is too strong, and I want to have an understanding wife......
His words were a little at a loss, and it was even more difficult to speak: "Haven't you noticed that the eldest princess has ignored external objects over the years, and her temperament has gradually faded; On the contrary, you, since you have Yi'er, have become more and more powerful and ruthless, unscrupulous......"
"You even hurt Yanlan!" When the last sentence was spoken, a strong burst of remorse and anger suddenly erupted in the definition of Hou's words, and the person became excited.
"Yanlan?!" The eldest princess's reaction was even more excited, looking at the definition of Hou, and urgently asked, "Twilight, you explain it to me!" ”
Defining Hou's sad look, he almost stood unsteadily: "It's me who can't live with Yanlan, and I can't stand with our children......"
Twilight Yanlan, the youngest daughter of the eldest princess who died young, died early and was replaced by Weinong.
"Yanlan's death ...... She's ......" Hou shook his head, choked up and unable to say more.
"I did it." Helian Biyue grabbed the conversation again: "Nie Yang is determined to abide by the covenant of the year, and make Dusk Yanlan the crown princess." But she and Yi'er are half-brothers and sisters, how can I watch their brothers and sisters do that messy way? ”
"My original intention was to support my niece Ming Danshu and make Nie Yang change her mind. Who thinks that he is stubborn, even if Yi'er and Danshu cook raw rice, he is only willing to let Danshu be a prince and a good woman. I've used everything I can do, so I have no choice but to ...... I had to do something to her. Helian Biyue said it confidently and without shame.
"You killed her?" The eldest princess didn't know where to break free of Nie Xingji, and ran to Helian Biyue like crazy, choking her throat: "You slut! You poisonous woman! You give my daughter back! Give back my daughter! ”
The eldest princess, who has experienced countless court storms, finally broke her last reason, her face was hideous, her eyes showed murderous intent, and her hands were ruthless. Nie Xingji and Jin Cheng dragged her for a long time, and in the end, it was the imperial doctor who gave her an injection to make her barely calm down.
She collapsed in the begonia wooden chair, muttering to herself in tears. Definition Hou was afraid that she would not be stimulated and really go crazy, but Nie Xingji knew that his aunt had experienced countless winds and waves in the court, and she was not so fragile at all.
