Chapter 44: The Aftermath
"To say it or not to say it?" for a while, Tuan Tuan was caught in the battle between heaven and man. After thinking about it for a long time, Tuan Tuan opened his mouth and made an agreement with the master, which was: "When the master's first child is born, I will definitely reveal my hidden secrets." ”
Is this coercion? Shen Qianfeng's mood was very bad, who let his cultivation level be too low. A little mobilization of the power of heaven and earth will collapse, if the child is born, it will be very fast. But Shen Qianfeng felt that he was still not ready to be a mother, and the current imperial crisis was in a hurry, even if he was in a fateful position. But she still can't do anything about Boa Hu's own child, so let everything go with fate.
Originally, I was thinking of waiting a few months to get married and then give myself some medicine. I don't want children for the time being, but it seems that it will never work.
Now she doesn't have a little dominance, and no matter how strong she is, she can't be stronger than the arrangement of fate. His head hurt, and Shen Qianfeng didn't want to fight against the fatigue in this body, so he fell asleep again.
When Shen Qianfeng woke up again, it was already three days later, and the imperial capital city was turbulent in the past three days. Although Jiang Qi's Divine Pavilion has been trying to suppress what happened at the Peach Blossom Festival. But the ministers who lost their daughters and the heads of the great families attacked the emperor together. There is only one condition for everyone, that is, to find someone to take responsibility for this accident.
The emperor angrily swept the song to the ground and then walked away, no matter who called it out, it would not work. As long as it is not done well, it will cause the wrath of the Five Clans Alliance, and if you don't make any statement, the country will definitely be in chaos.
Jiang Qi has been investigating who is fueling the troubles behind the scenes, but there has been no news. Even the brothers and sisters Zou Jin and Zou Yu, who knew the truth, didn't know why they didn't say goodbye. As if under some threat, someone soon found out that Princess Qianfeng was treating a person who was supposed to die during the Peach Blossom Festival. Thus provoke the punishment of the Heavens.
The real thing became more and more fierce, and soon a voice came out that Princess Qianfeng was an ominous person. Since the birth of Princess Qianfeng, this imperial capital city has been plagued by disasters. Ask the emperor to drive Princess Qianfeng out of the imperial capital and protect the rights in her hands.
With a bang, in the underground hall of the Divine Pavilion base. Jiang Qi threw the quilt on the ground. Wu Song, who came to reciprocate, angrily reprimanded: "Conspiracy, it must be a conspiracy." ”
Wu Song knelt on the ground and his whole body trembled: "Master, we think the same way. The people who think they are behind the scenes just want to force Niangniang out of the imperial capital city, and then remove the threat from her. As long as you don't have the support of the Situ family and the Five Clans Alliance by your side, those people can carry out their own plans?"
"Who are those people you are talking about?" Jiang Qi seemed to have lost his mind, and his eyes were full of ferocity. Situ Zheng, who had been standing in the shadows, did not speak, but when he saw that there was something wrong with the man's emotions. Slowly walked out of the darkness, and the next moment his hand was on Jiang Qi's shoulder.
"Calm down!" Situ Zheng's two words really calmed Jiang Qi down, so he continued: "Xiao Feng'er has woken up, see what she can do?"
Xiao Feng'er woke up with the best news he had heard in the past few days, and calmly returned to his desk. filtered all the things that happened today, and then explained that Wu Song continued to monitor the entire imperial capital city, and then took Situ Zheng back to Princess Qianfeng.
Shen Qianfeng, who woke up from this incident, twitched the corners of his mouth after hearing what happened in the imperial capital city today. The secret path in my heart will be like this, although the other party's methods are not very clever. But it is already very difficult to break the situation, as long as you take a step back, the other party is likely to force the emperor to abolish the holy decree. His marriage contract with Brother Qi will also be in jeopardy.
Tuan Tuan looked at the master who was sitting on the bed, chewing slowly with hot soup, and said with a smile: "The emperor really dares?"
"It's not that you don't dare, but you didn't force it to this time?" Shen Qianfeng took a few sips to solve the hot soup in the bowl and handed the soup bowl to Xiaohua who was guarding the side.
"Now it's time to analyze our opponents, what are we going to do?"
Tuan Tuan frowned: "It's obvious that it's really for the master, do they want the position of the three princes and concubines." He shook his head vigorously: "Could it be that the forces behind the Lu family are doing it?"
Shen Qianfeng nodded lightly: "That's right, we will always hold each other's fatal handle in our hands." Therefore, they have to give each other some benefits, so they can jump out willingly. As he spoke, he took a purple-gold token from the dark place in the storage space and handed it to Xiaomei: "I expect that the emperor's people will arrive soon and hand over this purple gold token to the emperor." We packed up and left the Imperial Capital early tomorrow morning. ”
There are less than seven days left, and the antidote for my mother will be refined. At this time, leaving the imperial capital city can get rid of the interference of this matter on oneself, and the second advantage is that the people behind the scenes can completely jump out. Now that it has been determined that there were people from the Lu family who attacked him back then, he can't easily bypass these people.
"If someone asks why the master handed over the purple gold arrow, the little sister doesn't know how to return?"
Shen Qianfeng said with a smile: "Let someone tell the emperor, what to do?" I'll see if that Lu Yan really dares to be the princess's mother." ”
The little sister put away the purple gold arrow and walked out, only a few hours later. The emperor's personal father-in-law Cao came to the princess's mansion, originally to pass on the emperor's will to enter the palace. However, he was blocked back by Her Royal Highness the Princess's personal maid, and Gonggong Cao did not expect that when he went back, he would go back with a purple gold arrow to restore his life.
When Jiang Qi returned to the princess's mansion, he immediately knew what Xiao Feng'er had done. I came to the study step by step, and sure enough, I saw Shen Qianfeng working hard to finish the official business that had been missed after only a few days in a coma. When I saw the last one, I couldn't help but stretch.
Situ Zheng, who was following behind, sighed: "Although I understand very well that Xiao Feng'er is doing this for the sake of the overall situation. But if the Zijin Ling Arrow falls into the hands of others, it will definitely dislike a bloody storm. ”
Inside, someone who was struggling to write looked up. Put down the brush in his hand and said to the outside, "Brother Qi, uncle, are you here?"
Jiang Qi walked in and said in a bad mood: "Why did you hand over the Purple Gold Order Arrow, don't you know what it symbolizes?"
Shen Qianfeng smiled: "I handed over the purple gold arrow, but I didn't say that I handed over the real purple gold arrow to my father." It is estimated that now my father will be so worried that he can't sleep when he sees the purple gold arrow. ”
What Shen Qianfeng said was not wrong at all, when Gonggong Cao took the purple gold order arrow from his hand. It had already been discovered that the weight was wrong, and after asking Gonggong Cao several times, it was determined that the fake purple gold arrow should be from Shen Qianfeng's handwriting.
The emperor was furious and directly reprimanded Gonggong Cao and drove him out of the imperial study. Early the next morning, the emperor made an order, and Princess Qianfeng presided over the Peach Blossom Festival, resulting in hundreds of casualties among the descendants of major families. Although Princess Qianfeng finally solved the trouble, she has to bear unshirkable responsibility. In the end, it was decided to take back the Zijin Command and depose Princess Qianfeng from the imperial capital and return to the fiefdom for a year of reflection.
This holy purpose caused an uproar in the entire Imperial Capital City, especially those who no longer dared to think about sending women to the Three Princes' Mansion, and they were ready to take action when Shen Qianfeng left the Imperial Capital City. But what no one expected was that the day Princess Qianfeng left the city. After our third prince returned to his palace, he suddenly announced to the public that he was sick and did not see any outsiders.
So for a while, the major forces sent their best secret guards to come to the Three Kings' Mansion one after another. Every night, dozens of black-clothed guards would be carried out until the third night of Princess Qianfeng's departure from the Imperial Capital. The secret guard of the three princes seems to have disappeared, and this palace is just that you can take the patrol of the guards and soldiers and come and go freely throughout the palace.
But the other news made people have to break out in a cold sweat, saying that one night a secret guard who sneaked into the Three Kings' Mansion suddenly saw Lu Yan walking out of the prince's room in rags. At this moment, the entire Imperial Capital City was blown up, and almost everyone in the Imperial Capital City was speaking ill of the Third Prince behind the scenes.
On this day, someone finally jumped out first, and the emperor really didn't expect that the first person to jump out was King Su. His third brother, it is said that he and Guo Houye have been very close these days. When the emperor was dealing with the twists and turns, there was generally no big matter, and no one dared to disturb it easily.
Although King Su has been handed over the command of the Imperial God Army for almost eight years, there is still a deep foundation in the army. He is still very relieved about his younger brother, and before he ascended the throne, he was the first to stand by his side with his own strength.
When Jiang Qi succeeded as the commander of the Imperial God Army, it was also the result of the great help of this younger brother. In the end, the emperor couldn't bear to let his younger brother wait too long, and finally put down his pen and said: "The third brother is always looking for me for something!"
The emperor always has to ask about things that he knows. Otherwise, you will lose the demeanor that the emperor should have.
"Second brother, are you knowingly asking?" King Su looked resolute: "A few days ago, you issued a holy decree, Princess Qianfeng turned back into Fenghui County! But what happened has been perfectly resolved, isn't it just that some people have died? Just give some benefits, why bother with the Situ family now?"
"What do you mean by the third brother?" the emperor pretended to be profound, closed his eyes, and seemed to be a little tired just now, so he had a good rest. But for Prince Su, who has experienced countless bloody battles on the battlefield, the emperor's mood is not very good. He really felt it, but for the sake of the empire's safety, he still had to finish his words to feel at ease.
"Second brother, you don't know what Qi'er has become in the past two days. Last night, it was rumored that Na Lu Yan walked out of Qi'er's room in disheveled clothes in the middle of the night. Isn't this nonsense? Could it be that Second Brother Qi'er really wants to abolish the concubine position of Shen Qianfeng's third princess!"
The emperor slapped one on the table and shouted: "Bold! Whoever dares to spread such a rumor, I am the first to ask for his head. The emperor stared coldly at his third brother, and his heart was cold, he dared to 100% Su Wang is here to probe the wind. Although he agreed to Shen Qianfeng's cooperation, as the emperor, he also has his own bottom line.
As long as anyone dares to step on that red line, there is only one consequence, and that is to be crushed.
"Third brother, since you reported this rumor. Then it's up to you to find the culprit. I hope that when Xiao Feng'er returns, you will give me a satisfactory answer. The emperor didn't leave his desk, and the emperor's aura on his body made Prince Su shaky and didn't dare to resist at all.
When King Su left the imperial study, the clothes he was wearing were already soaked with the sweat of fear. If it weren't for the little eunuch who called the soft sedan chair, King Su would definitely not be able to leave the palace today.
Not long after King Su left the imperial study, Concubine Min walked in through another door. sat directly beside the emperor without saluting, and Gonggong Cao retreated with interest, leaving only the two people in the room.
"The queen is about to go, isn't the emperor happy?"
The emperor knew the news on the night that Shen Qianfeng left the imperial capital. When he first heard the news, the emperor didn't sleep well all night. As a result, Concubine Min didn't close her eyes, and stayed on the bed with her man and chatted for a night.
"I remember, when I entered the palace. My sister's smile is forever imprinted in my mind. My sister has been asleep for so many years, will she still be the bold person she was when she woke up again?" Situ Min sighed: "Xiao Feng'er said that my sister is just a mortal. Even if you can wake up, you will only have a lifespan of five years at most. It's just that destiny is her, and there is no way to change it. ”
The emperor shook his head: "I am very satisfied to be able to see her smile again, and there will be no resentment in my heart." ”
Concubine Min stretched out her hand to open a piece of music and read it, but after reading it, she closed it and put it on the table. smiled: "I really didn't expect that a small warning book could make Xiao Feng'er's talent play to such a point." Although I've been reading this book for half a month, I still don't know anything about how to treat it. ”
Concubine Min handed a handwritten pamphlet to the emperor. The emperor took it and just doubled it and gave it to Concubine Min and said: "This is a warning Hengyan, I spent it when I was a child." I remember that your sister escaped back to me with this book. I really can't understand why the Ye family and the other Three Kingdoms must have this book. ”
"If the emperor wants to know, Min'er can tell you. It's just that you're going to laugh at the person who wrote the book after listening to it. ”
