This request is not too much, but in view of Ji Hui's special status, Mingzhu really didn't dare to agree. She thought carefully for a moment and asked Ji Hui to get up: "I will talk to the regent and give you an answer as soon as possible." ”

Ji Hui couldn't afford it: "In addition, the folk girl has something to plead. Although the capital is good, it is not a hometown, and the people want to return to the north. ”

Mingzhu shook her head without hesitation: "I can't be the master of this." ”

Ji Hui said softly: "My father has already written to His Royal Highness the Regent, and His Royal Highness has already agreed. What the maidens begged was to implore the princess to let the maidens set off with the army. ”

This is a little interesting, the person who led the troops was Yu Wenchu, Ji Hui didn't ask Yu Wenchu, but came to her. Mingzhu said with interest: "Why don't you go and ask Your Majesty or the Regent?" ”

Ji Hui was a little embarrassed, but her attitude was quite resolute: "Your Majesty doesn't want the people to leave, as for why you don't ask the regent, it's because this is a matter between women, the regent is not single, he has a family, and the people naturally have to come to the princess to beg the princess to be in line with the rules." ”

Mingzhu thought that since Ji Ke had already written a letter to Yu Wenchu, he must have his own entrustment and arrangement in the letter, and Yu Wenchu would definitely not refuse Ji Ke's request if he wanted to win Ji Shi. Ji Hui came to ask her and begged her, just to show respect, so she agreed to Ji Hui: "Miss Ji is too polite, they are all women, I know how difficult women are to walk, I will answer you." ”

Ji Hui couldn't help but be overjoyed: "The folk girl wishes His Royal Highness and the princess to grow old together." ”

Mingzhu also smiled: "I wish Miss Ji to find a wishful husband as soon as possible and rejoice in her life." ”

Here are hello, hello, hello, everyone, but there is a-for-tat confrontation in the dormitory. The Empress Dowager was lying on the bed, Fu Cong was lying on her shoulder, and the two seriously ill people were three feet apart, facing each other from each other, but there was no feeling of sympathy for each other.

Fu Cong's demeanor was calm, but the Empress Dowager was resentful, and she asked Fu Cong coldly: "What do you think about the matter of the King of Xiangcheng?" You, an old minister of the Three Dynasties, do you want to watch Yu Wenchu, a traitor and a thief, brutalize the descendants of the first emperor, Your Majesty's siblings? ”

Fu Cong said: "Niangniang is careful in her calculations, and Weichen has to admire." ”

The Empress Dowager sneered: "What do you mean? What does this have to do with me? ”

Fu Cong shook his head and sighed: "Qingfeng, you have been extremely smart since you were a child. You want to help your grandson ascend to the throne and adhere to orthodoxy, I don't blame you, it's just that the Tao is different. There is only public enmity between you and me, and there is no selfish grudge, and we are still brothers and sisters. But you shouldn't take advantage of the grievances between us and my brother's family to involve Mingcheng, now that the Fu family has split into two, how many people are implicated is really your fault. ”

The Empress Dowager sneered: "Do you really regard me as a brother and sister?" From the day you switched to supporting Yu Wenchu, you betrayed me. I don't want Mingcheng to help me, do you want them all to help you deal with me? Don't talk to me about anything like that, you are for yourself, for your sons and grandchildren, and for the pearl! Do you think it's painful for you to lose Mingzhao? I also feel that I am very painful to lose my son. Do you find family splits painful? I also feel that I can't keep my family business, and I will be ashamed to go underground in the future. ”

Tong'er is the nickname of Emperor Zhengqian, and Fu Cong is also very sad when he thinks of this nephew who died young. He was determined not to argue with the Empress Dowager about this issue anymore, nor did he intend to persuade her to retreat, he said softly: "Qingfeng, on the basis of facts, you have done something wrong in the matter of Xiangcheng County King. ”

The Empress Dowager sneered and was silent.

Fu Cong analyzed her in a low voice: "In my opinion, you are smart but you are mistaken by cleverness, digging your own pit and jumping by yourself." If the king of Xiangcheng County lived in the palace in a dignified manner, he might be able to live in peace and be lucky until he was old, but now, he can't live. ”

The Empress Dowager was stunned at first and then angry: "You think! He's going to live well. ”

Fu Cong sighed: "The regent is so strong, has a good face and a good reputation, as long as the king of Xiangcheng County lives in the palace for a day, he will try his best to protect the king of Xiangcheng for a day, because he does not want to bear the notoriety of killing his son and nephew." And now that the king of Xiangcheng County was taken out of the palace, before he could do it, someone would do it. He looked out the window with deep eyes: "In less than three days, there will inevitably be news of the death of the king of Xiangcheng County." ”

Yu Wenchu may not attack children, but his advisers and followers may not. Yuwennuo is always a threat to that position, especially Yuwennuo, who is out of control, is even more dangerous, and he will die early and be freed sooner. In other words, the Empress Dowager made a faint move and sent the king of Xiangcheng County to the knife.

The Empress Dowager looked at Fu Cong in a daze, coughed earth-shatteringly, her throat was fishy, and her heat was surging, she quickly reached out to cover her mouth. Mulberry heard the sound, hurriedly trotted in, saw this and took a handkerchief to replace her hand, the Empress Dowager refused to let go, shook her head desperately, and motioned to Mulberry to let Fu Cong out.

Fu Cong looked at her compassionately: "Qingfeng, you are still stubborn when you were a child, do you think I don't know what your real situation is?" I know it all. ”

The Empress Dowager lowered her eyes and saw dark red blood dripping from between her fingers, soaking on the quilt, like a blooming red plum.

She gave up abruptly, she let go of her hand and let the mulberry wipe her, she pleaded with Fu Cong in a low voice: "Second brother, I beg you, please save him, he is still young and doesn't understand anything." ”

Fu Cong said sympathetically: "I can't help you, things are out of control." Even if he asked the regent at this moment, he might not know the whereabouts of the king of Xiangcheng County. If you put yourself in your shoes, if it were you, in the same situation, would it be the people under your command who told you when they finished the matter first? ”

The Empress Dowager was furious, she wanted to cry like a child, let others listen to her, and fulfill her regrets, but she knew that she was not a child, and no one would pay attention to her even if she cried blindly. She decided not to ask Fu Cong, and her years of experience told her that Fu Cong's heart was also very hard, not to mention that she and he had just had a grudge against her son - even if Fu Mingzhao was not dead, it was almost like that.

She asked to see Mingzhu: "Let Mingzhu come, I want to see her, I have something to say to her." "Mingzhu is soft-hearted, especially for children, which is the most unlikely and unbearable, and it is her only and last hope.

Fu Cong saw through her thoughts: "Don't embarrass Mingzhu. I know what you're thinking, you think I won't help you for Ming Zhao, but it's not, you have to know why those people follow the regent, some people are for the peace of the country and the people, some people are for their own interests, their lives are attached to this, they kill people not only for the regent but also for themselves. ”
