The eldest princess of Yongyang looked at him and didn't speak for a while.

Except for the slightly heavy breathing of the emperor, there was only silence in the hall.

After a while, the emperor said, "Yongyang, you don't even want to echo me...... Do you think that you are like them, and that I am cruel and treacherous...... Wronged him? ”

The eldest princess of Yongyang lowered her eyes: "The royal brother does things, and he has his own thoughts." ”

The emperor closed his eyes when he heard this, and laughed weakly: "I know that you have always been the one who attaches the most importance to affection...... I still remember that when my father chose a horse for you, you refused to agree at first, but after getting married, you gradually developed true feelings with him, and even after the horse passed away for many years, you still couldn't get out, so it was difficult to heal...... You've always been like that, keeping everything to the bottom of your heart, but even if you don't talk about it, I know it......"

The eldest princess of Yongyang's eyelashes trembled, and suppressed the fluctuations in her voice: "Brother Huang said far away." ”

"yes, far away...... It's all old. When the emperor opened his eyes again, the cloudy bottom of his eyes changed: "But this old thing has been haunting me...... He had been dead for eight years, and I had been haunted by nightmares for eight years! ”

"I want to know why he is treasonous...... I want to know why! The emperor tensed all over his body and said, "That's why I want to take Xuanpu into Beijing, and I originally wanted to ask about the events of the year in person...... But Xuanpu is dead...... Heaven didn't even give me a chance to ask what was going on! ”

The eldest princess of Yongyang finally slowly raised her eyes, looked at the emperor who was trapped in the demons of the old things, and asked slowly: "What if the imperial brother really finds out that the eldest brother was falsely accused back then?" ”

This sentence pierced the emperor's heart like a nail, causing his tense body to tremble slightly.

He looked fixedly at the bed tent of Zhijin Xiangyun, as if he didn't know how much energy he had spent, and said word by word: "If he is wronged, I will naturally repay him justice and remove his wrongful name!" The ...... of the Society I will! ”

Is it?

But when it was clear that there was a chance to find out the truth, why didn't you try to investigate it deeply?

As soon as the so-called ironclad evidence was placed in front of him, he was in a hurry to convict -

At the moment, he claimed that he wanted to ask about the events of the year in person, but why didn't he even have the courage to meet that person in person and listen to the other party's explanation?

Now I'm obsessed with the truth in a mere Xuanpu's mouth-

How did this sound so much that she felt like she was just deceiving herself.

The eldest princess of Yongyang hid her eyes and sneered lightly, and said: "Time has passed, the key people are no longer alive, and it is extremely difficult to trace the old things." ”

When the emperor heard this, the corners of his drooping eyes trembled, and a cloudy tear slowly slipped down.

The emperor, who showed a sense of drowsiness and twilight, almost choked up and whispered, "I ...... I probably shouldn't be the emperor's ......"

He asked again: "Yongyang, do you hate me?" ”

The eldest princess of Yongyang sighed lightly: "The imperial brother is my only brother after all......"

The Emperor's voice grew lower and lower, and his sanity grew more and more drowsy.

The eldest princess of Yongyang could no longer hear his words, so she called the eunuch in charge.

"How can you be so dazed?" The eldest princess of Yongyang put down the bed tent for the emperor with her own hands, and turned to the eunuch in charge and asked in a low voice, "Have you taken the medicine?" What does the Imperial Physician say? ”

"The medicine is just taken...... The imperial physician only said that His Majesty is weak at the moment, and he can't use heavy medicine, so he can only try his best to recuperate...... "Facing the eldest princess, the eunuch in charge showed a trace of worry, and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also ordered people to secretly search for famous doctors among the people......"

The eldest princess of Yongyang frowned and nodded lightly.

She glanced back at the dragon tent and said, "Be careful." ”

"Yes, the slave must take good care of Your Majesty."

The eunuch in charge personally sent the eldest princess out of the inner hall.

"Auntie." The prince, who was waiting outside the palace gate, greeted him.

"Why haven't you gone back yet?"

"My nephew wants to send one to my aunt."

The aunt and nephew have always been close, and when the prince accompanied the eldest princess of Yongyang down the stone steps, he asked in a low voice with a worried face: "According to my aunt, my father ...... him."

Although his aunt has not been on the battlefield for many years, and he has long since stopped asking about war and political affairs, his admiration and trust for his aunt have always been there.

"It's hard to say...... the eldest princess of Yongyang shook her head slightly, looked at the vermilion wall corridor with the palace lights hanging in front of her, and said, "You are the prince, everything should be prepared in advance." ”

The prince's back tensed slightly, and he responded: "Chang'er understands." ”

The person carrying the lantern on his side was the most trusted confidant of the prince, and the emperor's bedroom was getting farther and farther behind him, and the eldest princess of Yongyang whispered again: "Aunt knows that you have never let go of the affairs of the outdated family...... However, since ancient times, the replacement of the old and the new has been the most important matter, and at this juncture, it is better for you to put this matter aside, so as not to be caught by others and make a big fuss in front of your father......"

The prince was slightly surprised.

My aunt always knew that he was investigating the old affairs of the family?

"Your mother went early, and your aunt grew up...... What kind of child you are, how can my aunt not know? Breaking his thoughts, the eldest princess of Yongyang looked at the deep night ahead, and there was a hint of tenacity on her weak face: "The truth will not be buried forever, it is just always held in the hands of the real rulers." ”

The night was extremely cold, and the biting cold air soaked in the bottom of his eyes, making the prince's eyes slightly red: "Yes, Chang'er remember." ”

A gust of wind came, and the eldest princess of Yongyang coughed for a while.

The prince said worriedly: "I heard that there is a Lang Zhong in my aunt's mansion who lives temporarily, and under recuperation, there is still no improvement?" ”

After a cough, the eldest princess's voice was a little hoarse: "It's okay...... It's just a minor illness that isn't worth mentioning. ”

Mama Qi Zhen on the side sighed silently and tightened her cloak for her.

The prince immediately instructed the inner supervisor to prepare a soft sedan chair to send him.

Seeing the sedan chair leave, the prince explained to the people around him: "My aunt is frail, and when she enters and leaves the palace in the future, she can change to a soft sedan chair outside the forbidden palace, and there is no need to walk into the palace - on my orders, arrange this matter as soon as possible." ”

The inner supervisor should come down immediately.

The eldest princess of Yongyang took a sedan chair out of the forbidden palace, and took her grandmother to sit in the carriage of the eldest princess's mansion.

The eldest princess of Yongyang took the hot tea handed by her grandmother, and said with a sigh in her eyes: "This foolish royal brother in this palace has been cowardly and evasive by nature since he was a child, and his ears are soft, especially to deceive others...... After living a lifetime, it is still like this. ”

Mama said in a low voice: "This morning, Lord Jiang and the ministers impeached the Marquis of Dingbei...... Fortunately, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came forward to refute it, so that the trouble would not reach the point of being out of control......"

"Write to him, and tell him to be more vigilant, both openly and secretly." The eldest princess of Yongyang said: "Jiang Zhengfu will not give up on this." ”

"Yes."

"The situation in the north is getting more and more tense......" The eldest princess of Yongyang sighed and opened the curtain on one side of the car and looked at the cold night: "I don't know what that cat is doing now, this palace really thinks about her...... Tomorrow will enter the wax moon, without her making a fuss on the side, I really can't even smell a trace of lively New Year's flavor. ”

"Yes, usually when Mrs. Heng is here, she occasionally feels a little noisy, and this time she leaves, it seems to be deserted, and the days are much more boring." Mama said: "But rest assured, Your Highness, Miss Heng is so smart and sensitive...... I will definitely be able to return to Beijing safely as soon as possible. ”

The eldest princess of Yongyang nodded slightly.

"This palace is also looking forward to my Ah Heng coming back safely as soon as possible......"

……

On the day of Laba, the ice and snow inside and outside Yingzhou City had not melted, but it was also a good day to see the sun.

It was early in the morning, in the Assassin's Mansion, Pei Ding, the Assassin of Yingzhou, was standing in front of the bookshelf and opened a secret letter he had just gotten.

The doors and windows were closed, and there was no second person, Pei Ding didn't dare to carelessly read the contents of the letter word by word.

"Squeak-"

The sound of the door being pushed open suddenly came from behind, and Pei Ding, who was contemplating carefully, was startled, and hurriedly stuffed the secret letter into his sleeve.

It was a young girl who walked in.

"It's Shuang'er...... Why don't you come in and let people spread the word? ”

"I told them that A-Niang asked me to come, so they didn't dare to mention it." Pei Wushuang walked in and looked at his father with a somewhat suspicious expression: "Daddy, you shouldn't do anything wrong, right?" Did you secretly go out to gamble again? ”

"Gambling money?" Pei Ding sighed, spread his hands and asked, "You might as well pronounce your father's name first...... Where do I dare to gamble now? ”

A long time ago, he was also an unbeliever, until he lost more and more......

"That's just as well."

"Why did your aunt ask you to come to me?" Pei Ding settled down and sat down in the chair.

"Today, I am going to visit Mrs. Xiao in Dingbei Hou Mansion with Ah Niang, and Ah Niang asked me to ask, does Ah Dad have any things or words that she needs to convey to Hou Mansion?"

Ah Niang said that the Dingbei Hou was appointed as the envoy of the Jiedu, and now he is in charge of the entire Beidi, and Daddy, as the history of the Yingzhou Thorn, is also under the jurisdiction of the Dingbei Hou, and this relationship is estranged, and it is not possible to get too close - the men's exchanges are not too frequent on the surface, and it is more appropriate to convey them to each other by the women of the back house.

"Go to the Hou Mansion......" Pei Ding thought for a while, and said: "In this case, bring an invitation card for me, on the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, I just want to invite Xiao Hou to the mansion to participate in the banquet......"

Pei Wushuang stretched out his hand: "Give me the invitation." ”

The banquet in the twenty-eighth mansion of Layue is to celebrate Daddy's birthday, and it is normal to invite Beihou to come on such an occasion - but it is difficult to say whether the other party will come.

"Since it is for Marquis Xiao, it should be more sincere when I personally invite it...... Twin and wait. Pei Ding came to the back of the bookcase with a smile, and did not hide his flattery at all.

Pei Wushuang was obviously accustomed to it, and sat down to eat tea and wait.

"I'm here to help my father sharpen the ink......" Pei Ding glanced at his daughter dissatisfied.

"You better do it yourself or call the little guy to come, in case you get your fingers dirty, but it's extremely difficult to wash, I'll have to go to the Hou Mansion as a guest later." The girl said, holding tea in one hand, and stretched out the other hand to look at the fingers on the back of the hand, and then turned over to look at the palm, revealing a very satisfied look.

Pei Ding glanced at it, and immediately said vigilantly: "Dad, I can make it clear to you first, you can go to the Hou Mansion, and see the monk—no!" ”

"What kind of monk, he has never shaved his ordination, but he just grew up in the temple when he was a child...... He is now a lieutenant general with an official position, General Yin! When Pei Wushuang corrected, he sighed faintly: "I want to see him, but where can I see him?" He avoids me all day long, like a mouse hiding from a cat......"

Pei Ding snorted lightly: "That shows that he still has some self-knowledge, and he knows that he is not worthy of my Pei Ding's daughter." ”

Looking at the girl who was immortal with a thief's heart, he said bitterly: "Shuang'er, why do you have to attach your heart to him...... Look at you, if you want to have a family background, go out into a famous family, do you want to look, and follow your father, you are so beautiful and beautiful - your father is only a daughter like you, and he raised you to such a big age, but he is counting on you to climb the dragon and the phoenix in the future! ”

“…… You are really my own father, and you can say such dehumanizing words? ”

Seeing his father's loving smile, Pei Wushuang also showed a false smile: "But you have to think about it, I can't be a little puppet under you, it's not my expertise to climb the power and attach nobles, and it should be a very convenient thing to smash your job and future......"

Pei Ding looked at his daughter with a look of hope: "It's okay, Dad believes that you will always grow up." ”

The girl's expression at this time was a little skeptical: "Can you not be so unabashed?" Even if it's a little more tactful? ”

"Dad doesn't like to hear this, what can be seen between you and my father and daughter? Dad has never been such a hypocrite. Pei Ding smiled and said: "Besides, it is normal for people to hope that a woman will become a phoenix." ”

Pei Wushuang only felt that this didn't sound right, but he couldn't refute it for a while-

"You still can't write invitations? If you don't write, I'll go! Beware of Auntie and waiting, it's you who will be scolded when you turn around! ”

"Write, write, this is ......"

When Pei Wushuang left the study with the invitation, his face was already full of joy.

Finally, I can go to the Hou Mansion again!

As for the bad things that my father just said? - Just say it, anyway, she has never heard the words of this old man who sees money when she is so old!

……

In the Dingbei Hou Mansion, Mrs. Xiao was munching melon seeds in the house, looking at the booklet in her hand, the spring roll stood behind her and rubbed her shoulders lightly, and she couldn't resist the temptation to poke her head to look at the words on the booklet.

"That's a ...... so well written!" Mrs. Xiao laughed so much that her eyes were gone, pinched a melon seed and pointed to the previous paragraph, and said, "Expressive and fit!" ”

"Uh-huh!" The spring rolls were shining with their eyes and nodding like pounding garlic, and their faces were also full of intoxication.

When the master and servant were snorting to death in front of this booklet, Green Wax walked in and spread it.

"If it's not important, I'll talk about it later, don't delay me to get down to business......" Mrs. Xiao smiled and turned another page, unable to pay attention.

Looking at the lady who was "plaything", Green Wax seemed to think seriously: "It doesn't matter, it's just that the painter Ji came to greet his wife...... Then, the servant will call people back? ”

Ah Heng is here?

Mrs. Xiao's face immediately changed, and she glanced at the green wax: "Are you stupid?" It's so cold outside, don't invite people in! ”

The main owner is here, what kind of booklet is she reading!
