Chapter 87: The Cold Heart of Man (2)
"Are you ordering me?" Nie Xingyi raised his hand and straightened his cuffs, and said arrogantly: "How to deal with Ding Jiuche, I have my own opinions." I don't have to obey what my father said. Unless you can get the old man to speak immediately, I will obey him. ”
"You...... Shameless! At this moment, Wei Nong was almost overwhelmed by disappointment and anger, and the two were superimposed, teaching her to hate Nie Xingyi more than ever, even more so than Nie Xingyi.
"You've only been in charge of the country for a few days, and you think the world is in your hands? Or do you think that if you win over Ding Jiuche, the Praetorian Guards will obey you? Can Jingzhou City be invulnerable? Wei Nong couldn't help but stimulate him: "No, I don't know, you are really too far away from Nie Xingji!" ”
There was a sound of "bang", and Nie Xingyi was so angry that he knocked down all the rows of red pens on the case. He hated others to compare him with Nie Xingji the most in his life, and he couldn't help but endure the bruises on his forehead, before he gritted his teeth and burst out a few words: "You think so highly of him, but does he think highly of you?" If you weren't the 'Queen's Destiny', do you think Nie Xingji would be looking at you? ”
Seeing that Wei Nong was indifferent and his expression was as usual, he sneered fiercely: "You don't know yet, right? Nie Xingji is now in Jingzhou, but he remembers the concubine in Fangzhou in his heart. Last month, he specially sent someone to pick up a room of concubines, and the day before yesterday, he had already arrived at the Jinghou Mansion. ”
Wei Nong listened to these words without any reaction, snorted lightly, turned around and left. The light blue skirt swayed on the ground to create a sparse shadow, which was a refreshing and cool color in summer, but it was inevitably stained with ink on the ground.
Nie Xingyi saw her turn around so neatly, and his heart was even more annoyed, and he couldn't tell whether he was angry that she disobeyed herself, or angry at her mercilessly despised, or just unwilling to let this woman belong.
He looked at the dots of ink on her skirt and felt so dirty and glaring, and subconsciously closed his eyes.
Wei Nong seemed to have a sense, suddenly stopped and turned around, his words were three points stronger than Fang Cai, and he almost threatened to leave two sentences: "Within five days, give an explanation to the Chu sect." Otherwise, I will have to look good! ”
After that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Coming out of the holy study, Wei Nong didn't even return to the Purple Palace, nor did he bring his personal palace maid, and went straight out of the palace to the eldest princess's mansion. Nie Xingyi saw that she didn't even care about the face of the East Palace, and she was even more annoyed, and said cruel words to the palace people: "Let her go!" No one is allowed to pick her up! ”
Overnight, everyone in the Yan Palace knew that the crown prince and the princess had a quarrel for some reason, and the princess returned to her parents' house in a rage.
Wei Nong naturally knew that the consequences of her departure would be serious, but she really didn't want to see Nie Xingyi, and she felt disgusted even if she stayed in the East Palace. She was completely alone, and there was no place to go outside the palace, so after thinking about it, she only took on the mother-daughter status with the eldest princess, so she had to go to the eldest princess's mansion to check the bracelet by the way.
When she came to the eldest princess's mansion, the eldest princess asked about the inside story, and also had a lot of complaints about Nie Xingyi, and said firmly: "Look, he will never punish Ding Jiuche's father and son heavily." ”
Wei Nong didn't have any hope for Nie Xingyi, he was silent for a long time, and said to the eldest princess: "I have something to ask you." ”
The eldest princess sighed: "Why are you so outside?" You say. ”
"I want a night coat and a pair of Emei thorns that are worth it."
Night-walking clothes, Emei thorn ...... The eldest princess reacted immediately, and grabbed the slightly thick soft wattle: "Good boy, you can't think like that!" ”
"You know what the Chu royal family means to me." Wei Nong was unusually calm and firm at the moment: "Since the heavens don't give me, I'll take it myself." ”
The eldest princess felt a tremor in her heart inexplicably, and was shocked by the hatred in her slightly thick words, and hurriedly persuaded in a low voice: "You have been in the palace for so long, why are you still so straight?" Is this kind of thing worth fighting for? Ding Jiuche was born in the army, can you beat him? Or can you beat his Fuzhong Hospital? ”
Weinong was resolute and pursed his lips silently.
"What a stubborn character!" The eldest princess sighed again: "But although she is stubborn, she has a temper with me!" It is also the fate of our mother and daughter. ”
She said this, but she smiled, hid her face and continued: "If you break through, not only will you lose money, but you may not be able to kill him." I have a good idea, but you have to lose some face, will you? ”
Wei Nong pondered for a moment and replied: "As long as it doesn't violate morality and doesn't hurt the innocent, I'm naturally willing." ”
The eldest princess lowered her voice and told her how to listen to it. Wei Nong's face was hesitant at first, but the more she listened to it, the more she felt that this method was feasible, and when the eldest princess finished speaking, she had immediately made up her mind to do it.
When the eldest princess saw that she agreed with this method, she instructed: "Don't worry, let them be free for another three or five days." ”
Wei Nong nodded, thought for a while, and finally asked: "Since you can come up with this method, have you decided to help Jinghou?" ”
The eldest princess's face remained unchanged, and she still smiled: "Look at the day of my birthday banquet, how did Helian Biyue treat me?" The dirty water on my head was splashed down, if it weren't for my hard confidence, I would have been tossed and collapsed by her! On that alone, I wouldn't have helped his son. ”
Wei Nong also remembered Queen Helian's attitude towards the eldest princess that day, so she fell silent.
"It's strange, why did Helian Biyue suddenly target me? I still can't figure it out! I'm her in-laws! The eldest princess muttered to herself, and suddenly asked again, "What is the king's condition?" ”
Wei Nong could only purse his lips again and be silent. One thing is one thing, although she is annoyed that Nie Xingyi did it, she also understands that King Yan's illness cannot be easily leaked, otherwise it will be very turbulent.
But in fact, King Yan has not appeared for a long time, and Nie Xingyi has been in prison for more than half a month, and anyone will guess that King Yan's condition is not good. Especially when such a big thing happened to the Chu Sect, King Yan never came forward to appease him, it was not his usual style at all.
The eldest princess naturally guessed it, and asked it casually today, and when she saw that Wei Nong didn't respond, she knew that she had guessed correctly, and couldn't help but say with emotion: "Whether you believe it or not, the king once mentioned it to me, and he is more interested in respecting the marquis." Now...... I don't know if there is a way out for that child. ”
The eldest princess observed a slightly thick expression as she spoke, and saw that she was not surprised, nor surprised, and she couldn't guess her thoughts.
Wei Nong knew who King Yan wanted, and when he married her to the prince, the meaning of King Yan's words could no longer be clear. At the beginning, she was resentful of Nie Xingji and vowed to let him have nothing, but now looking at what Nie Xingyi did, she couldn't help but ask herself, can she bear it?
At least, Nie Xingji's attack on Chu is clearly placed in front of the world, although his wrist is iron-blooded, it is also above board. But what about Nie Xingyi?
Of the two brothers, who is more murderous than the other? Who is meaner than whom? She couldn't tell!
Wei Nong felt very lost, as if she had suddenly fallen into the deepest part of hell, surrounded by lonely souls full of sin, and she wanted to find a living person with a clear conscience, but she could not find it anyway.
"I'm checking one thing, and I don't want to get involved in the fight between their brothers until I find out." Wei Yan was tired of the words.
"Silly boy, you're too upright." The eldest princess didn't know how to persuade her, so she asked, "What do you want to check?" How can I help? ”
Wei Nong hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head: "No, thank you." ”
The eldest princess smiled: "Don't worry too much, step by step, you can solve Ding Jiuche's matter first." ”
*****
Five days later, a piece of news shocked the entire city of Jingzhou!
The crown princess left the palace in twilight and went to Xuanji Palace to pray for King Yan, but she was teased by Deng's disciples. In particular, this disciple is not a ruffian, but the son of General Ding Jiuche, Ding Youguang.
The crown princess was ashamed and indignant, and immediately went to the eldest princess's mansion nearby. Ding Jiuche was terrified when he learned about this, and immediately took his eldest son to ask for guilt, hoping to mediate the matter through the eldest princess and the definition of Hou. The eldest princess appeared as usual, but she was noncommittal on the matter.
The crown princess stayed in the princess's mansion for two more days, and she couldn't bear to be disturbed and returned to the palace angrily.
The news spread with immeasurable momentum, swift, fast and fierce, and Ding Jiuche had no time to stop it, and the matter was already known to everyone. First Chu Huan, the daughter of the King of Chu, and then the crown princess, the reputation of the Ding family's father and son plummeted, and overnight, everyone avoided it.
On the day that Wei Nong returned to the palace, he didn't even enter the door of the East Palace, and went straight to the Fengchao Palace, wanting to ask Queen Helian to make decisions for herself. She didn't cry, lest it seem too fake, but she repeated it back and forth angrily, and asked Queen Helian to deal with it.
Queen Helian knew in her heart that this was a ploy of the envoy of Weinong, and it must also be the idea of the eldest princess Nie Zhiying. But this matter is related to the dignity of the royal family, and it must not be treated perfunctory like Chu Huan's matter, otherwise, the dignity of the prince and the majesty of the Yan Palace will be lost.
As a last resort, Queen Helian had no choice but to send a message to Nie Xingyi, ordering him to put Ding Youguang in prison first, and then let Ding Jiuche think about it for the time being and not show up in the court for the crime of teaching his son no way.
Nie Xingyi was furious when he learned about this, angry that Weinong ruined his hard work, and even more annoyed that Weinong didn't cherish his reputation, and gave her a slap in anger.
This slap was slightly stiff and stiff, which just gave her enough reason not to return to the East Palace. Under the pretext of this dispute, she went to the Fengchao Palace again and asked to stay here, but she refused to give in to anyone's persuasion.
On the one hand, Queen Helian has to pay attention to the condition of King Yan, on the other hand, she has to pay attention to the situation in the DPRK and China, and she has to pave the way for Nie Xingyi to succeed to the throne. The persuasion failed, so she had to live in the Feng Dynasty Palace by Wei Nong to temporarily alleviate the resentment between their husband and wife.
But the relationship between the crown prince and the crown princess is rigid, and the news can't be hidden at all. Nie Xingyi had a calm face every day in the court, and Wei Nong turned a deaf ear to all rumors and rumors, and stayed in the Feng Dynasty Palace - she wanted to find an opportunity to check the bracelet again.
