319. Chapter 319
For Hua Jiangyue, she must put 100% enthusiasm into everything, so since Hua Jiangyue entered the alchemy in the dormitory, she has really been pure-hearted, and she has not paid attention to things outside the palace.
Recently, the contacts between the four princes and the third prince have suddenly decreased a lot for some reason, and there are already rumors in the palace that the two of them are making trouble for the matter of Hua Jiangyue, and at first this matter was just the palace maids and eunuchs chewing their tongues, but human nature always likes obscure and taboo things. This kind of palace anecdote is the most allowed to spread and adapt, and it didn't take long for even the concubines to spread the story of Hua Jiangyue.
Poor Hua Jiangyue, obviously just came to the palace to alchemy, but she was inexplicably deducted such a big hat, and she didn't know it. If it weren't for the fact that the Queen Mother had received the benefits of Hua Qianyue, and she became more and more obsessed with the rouge gouache of Yuejifang, she helped Hua Jiangyue suppress a lot of gossip, but I am afraid that I don't know what it will be like at this moment.
Regarding this rumor turmoil, the third prince seemed much calmer, maybe he originally hoped that someone would put him and Hua Jiangyue together, and felt that the fourth prince couldn't win him at all, so he was so calm, but no matter what the reason was, he was currently a person who seemed to stay out of the matter.
The fourth prince is a cold face on weekdays, and he still cares about the evaluation of others, so as soon as things appear, he began to think about how to eliminate the impact, but whether it was for his own reputation or for Hua Jiangyue, the fourth prince really couldn't tell, because he didn't think about it carefully, he only knew that he had to calm things down before Hua Jiangyue came out, so as to ensure his image.
Hard work pays off, the four princes are known for their prestige on weekdays, and now after the alchemy, the queen mother is also quite optimistic about him, so the "scandal" storm in Hua Jiangyue has finally been suppressed, but what is unexpected is that the storm in the inner court has just ended, and something happened in the outer court.
Two days ago, the old ministers of the two dynasties who went out to patrol on behalf of the emperor gave Yu Wenxuan a sudden return to Beijing, and on the day of returning to Beijing, he gave the emperor a notebook, claiming that the emperor's alchemy in the palace violated the ancestral system, and this matter disgraced the imperial court, Shilin was shaken, and asked the emperor to punish Hua Jiangyue and stop alchemy.
The emperor was originally tempted because of the military talisman, and at this moment, seeing that this old minister took the lead in making trouble, he had already repented in his heart, but for the sake of face, he had to choose the method of court discussion to make a decision.
On this day, outside the Cheng'en Palace, the six departments and many officials and Confucians were summoned to the palace, not for anything else, but for the matter of Hua Jiangyue. This court meeting is destined to be discussed for a long time, because this is the first time that the third prince and the fourth prince have appeared together after the previous scandal, and it is also the first time that the two of them have the same political views.
In the early morning, before the sun fully shone into the palace, a eunuch quickly led people to light the candles in the palace. It didn't take long for the emperor to slowly walk into the palace with a piercing "The emperor has arrived".
At this moment, the ministers who were originally scheduled to be present have all arrived, and they are all sitting in danger, but the prince and the ministers who support the two princes are still some of them have not been present, the reason is very simple, as the party that supports alchemy, whether it is psychologically or physically, they are a little uneasy, after all, if the alchemy fails, their future will also be buried, this kind of pressure, no matter who it is, is not easy to bear.
"I have already read this chapter of your Aiqing, but you have each said your own reason, but you have never been able to have a reason, so today you will argue, and the winner, I will naturally allow it to be played. Perhaps because of the complexity of his thoughts, the emperor always seemed not to be in high spirits.
As soon as the emperor's words fell, he heard a voice that was cold to the audience and suddenly spoke. "Enlighten my emperor, my sons think that Yuwenxuan should be the sin of the ancient king!"
Following the prestige, it was the four princes who always spoke last on weekdays. I saw that the four princes were sinking like water at the moment, and their eyes were staring at Yu Wenxuan. And Yu Wenxuan didn't seem to expect the four princes to say this, and looked at the four princes in disbelief.
"Why did the fourth prince say this, the old man was just telling the truth in the court, how could he be the King of Confusion? If it is really the King of Confusion, then how should His Highness and this Hua Jiangyue use His Majesty's sleeping palace alchemy?" Yu Wenxuan said unhurriedly, as if the other party was not accusing himself.
The emperor seemed to be a little interested in the words of the fourth prince, so he asked: "Fourth, you can't talk nonsense, since you said that Lord Yuwen is guilty, then you can come up with evidence!"
"Emperor Qi, today, everyone in the world already knows that His Majesty is filial piety, in order to refine medicine for his mother, he actually gave up the dignity of the royal family, if he stops now and abolish alchemy, I am afraid that people in the world will say that His Majesty is not trustworthy, and in the long run, the country will not be a country. Therefore, Erchen felt that Lord Yuwen was encouraging people's hearts and confusing the king. "I have to admit that the four princes are born actors, this kind of words, if it is said by the second person, maybe the emperor will not think about it, but now, it is the fourth prince, and the emperor must think about it."
In the afternoon of the same day, the emperor issued an edict to fine all the ministers of Yuwenxuan's party for half a year for neglecting the government and interfering in the harem. Of course, in fact, everyone understands in their hearts that this is only used to appease Hua Jiangyue and the Four Princes, after all, if the two of them are not appeased, I am afraid that they will cause a lot of trouble.
It is said that in the afternoon, although the emperor's heart had compromised and decided to continue alchemy, but there was no good reason, and finally the four princes suddenly drew their swords and forced a few ministers to ask many questions, which led to this victory.
The hard work pays off, although this alchemy has wasted a lot of twists and turns, but when Hua Jiangyue is out of the customs, the queen mother's illness is really a medicine. It is said that this is because Hua Jiangyue injected a lot of aura into the elixir, but some people say that this is a play by the Queen Mother and the Four Princes.
A full moon struggled to break free from the clouds and mist, and reappeared in the sight of all beings.
In the palace, the Qionglou Yuyu echoes with the bright moon hanging high in the sky, making people feel like a fairyland.
In fact, it is not too much to say that this is a fairyland, the world is rich, no more than the emperor's house, the ultimate of people, isn't it a fairy? Then it is not a problem to say that this palace is a fairyland.
A pair of female officials dressed in gorgeous costumes, neatly arranged, one by one with low eyebrows, holding delicate utensils in their hands. From their faces, even if they used all their energy, it was difficult to find a trace of affection.
Hua Jiangyue dressed up very carefully today, and she couldn't hide the excitement between her eyebrows, she had the capital of excitement. Tonight, in the palace hall, the upcoming banquet was prepared for Hua Jiangyue, so she had the most high-profile treatment, and naturally had the right and capital to be excited.
Looking at the rows of busy female officials, Hua Jiangyue couldn't help but feel some pity in her heart. Think of these women, the oldest is only in their early twenties, originally in their youth, just the best years, but the imperial power and wealth gather them here, to fill the vast courtyards of the powerful, to fill the ravines of power and desire.
Hua Jiangyue looked at it and thought about it, she couldn't help but be distracted, thinking about it carefully, maybe she was the only one who felt that these people were unlucky, right? Perhaps, each of these women was thinking about how to go further, attract the emperor's attention, and become a canary in captivity, using her own face and body to provide the emperor with a trace of freshness, and finally in exchange for the seemingly precious but humble title of concubine, to obtain the status of a palace and a shop, and from then on, slowly wait for the emperor's forgetfulness or occasional teasing.
Power is indeed the best nourishment in the world, because with its existence, these women who have long been walking dead, those men who have long been dry bones in the grave, can be brought back to life. Hua Jiangyue suddenly felt a little disgusting, but this feeling was fleeting, think about it carefully, why is she not attached to the wings of rights, and why is she not interested in rights?
Touching the cold stone railing, looking at the busy palace eunuchs, Hua Jiangyue's heart suddenly felt a thousand pathoss, for a while, she seemed to see the palace battles of the previous dynasty, as if she saw the infighting and disputes of the royal family in the empire a hundred years ago and a thousand years ago. This qiē has nothing to do with Hua Jiangyue, but Hua Jiangyue feels so real.
Suddenly, thoughts were brought back to the real world with a powerful palm.
"What are you doing here?" This is a familiar voice, Hua Jiangyue can hear, this is the voice of the third prince.
Hua Jiangyue turned her head, and sure enough, it was the third prince, and she couldn't help but feel a little more satisfied and happy with her judgment.
Hua Jiangyue glanced at the third prince, then turned around, turned her back to the third prince, and deliberately said in a strange tone: "What is a daze, I am contemplating." ”
Maybe it was Hua Jiangyue's solitude after refining the pill, or maybe Hua Jiangyue was just too engrossed, she didn't even think of abiding by the etiquette in the palace, and her attitude towards the three princes was just the same as when they usually met.
But fortunately, the third prince didn't bring an attendant, let alone any so-called shelf, and he didn't care much about Hua Jiangyue's attitude.
Hua Jiangyue was facing away from the three princes at the moment, so the three princes couldn't see each other's expressions, but listening to the other party's voice, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, maybe Hua Jiangyue's voice seemed very sad, or maybe the three princes thought of Hua Jiangyue's encounter. No matter what the reason is, in short, at this moment, the hearts of the three princes were suddenly aroused by a desire to protect, but at this moment, where does Hua Jiangyue need her own protection? In this life, I am afraid that I can only protect Hua Jiangyue in my dreams, right?
