Chapter 103: Falling out of favor

On this day, Shen Mingyuan returned to the palace early and came to see Wei Yangyang. I saw her lying and sitting for a while, and she was uncomfortable. He had only been in for a quarter of an hour, and he had already heard Wei Yangyang say "hey", "too miserable", "boring", sighing dozens of times.

He knew that Wei Yangyang just wanted to go out to play, so he coaxed her and said, "You can let Wen Ru come to you." Wei Yangyang puffed out his cheeks: "But Wenru can't come every day." I've dismantled every one of those toys, and I've walked through the yard, so what's the difference between me and going to jail now? ”

Shen Mingyuan saw that she was in a bad mood, so he took a step back: "Why don't you watch from the side when I practice early?" "The queen was afraid that the dancing knife and stick would hurt Wei Yangyang, not only did she not allow her to practice, but even Shen Mingyuan didn't even allow her to watch it when she was practicing.

Wei Yangyang was even more depressed after hearing this: "Hey, I went to see His Highness practice, and I must have itchy hands and want to dance a set of boxing by myself." Forget it, I'm even more angry when I see it, hey. Shen Mingyuan touched her belly: "Soon, you will be able to survive in seven or eight months." Wei Yangyang lay on the recliner again: "Seven or eight months, that's more than half a year, I may be paralyzed in bed by then." Shen Mingyuan couldn't help but smile and pinched her mouth: "Don't talk nonsense." ”

Wei Yangyang snorted: "I'm uncomfortable standing and sitting now, I just want to fight with people." Shen Mingyuan was angry and funny: "Even if I can call someone, who would dare to fight you?" If she hurts you, won't the Queen Mother kill them? ”

Wei Yangyang sat up again after hearing this: "Also, people don't dare to fight with me, and this fight is boring." Hey, I'm so miserable. Then she looked at Shen Mingyuan pitifully: "Your Highness, did you have anything interesting when you went to the court?" Let's hear it. ”

When he mentioned the Shang Dynasty, Shen Mingyuan had a headache: "What's so interesting, it's more annoying than you staying in the house to raise a baby." A group of old men quoted scriptures, scolded today, and scolded tomorrow. Except for swearing without dirty words, it is no different from quarreling with the people in the vegetable market, and my head is big. ”

Wei Yangyang thought that he and Jiao Qi Beihai would not deal with each other as soon as they met, so he asked: "Then do you quarrel with other princes?" ”

Shen Mingyuan had never taken the initiative to mention the matter of their brother's dispute to her, and when he saw her asking, he smiled bitterly and said, "Noisy, why don't you quarrel?" For example, if we want to provide you with grain, grass, horses, explosives, and weapons, this is not something that can be done by one ministry. The Ministry of Household is to raise grain and fodder, the Ministry of War is to provide troops and horses, the Ministry of Engineering is to design cannonballs and guns, and the Ministry of Rites is to be responsible for the battle of attacking the heart of the enemy country and diplomatic relations. Each time, it took 180 quarrels to get the supplies to Haixi in its entirety. ”

Wei Yangyang sounded interesting, she only knew that it cost a lot of money for the imperial court to support Haixi, but she didn't expect that so many departments had to cooperate with each other to support the Haixi government. She tilted her head and asked, "Then, it's like me and Jiao Qi Beihai arguing?" ”

The contradiction between her and Jiao Qi Beihai, Shen Mingyuan understands it very well. Not only was she injured by the other party, but her grandfather Wei Guanying was also killed in battle with the Tyrant and Xidi coalition forces. Her grandfather died tragically on the morning of her birth, which is why she was thought to have killed her family. She and the tyrants, it was simply a mutual enmity.

Wei Yangyang has never had a good look when she sees Jiaoqi Beihai, if someone is better, she is willing to say something about the scene; If no one is there, she really wants to rush up and fight with the other party. Therefore, every time she entered the palace, Shen Mingyuan had to tell her in advance: she couldn't fight with Jiaoqi Beihai or scold, lest the emperor and queen be unhappy.

Shen Mingyuan smiled: "What is your quarrel method?" Even if your Weijia army starts a war with the tyrants, there will be a number of people killed, and one hacked to death will be counted as one. But if we lose the quarrel, we don't know how many people will fall to the ground. ”

He originally wanted to tell Wei Yangyang about the battle between him and Shen Minghuang, but after careful consideration, he still didn't say it, and just told her: "You have seen Princess Fengquan recently, don't argue with her." It's a big deal to ignore her and go crazy with her. Wei Yang was puzzled: "What's wrong?" She's going to deal with me? Hmph, am I afraid of her? ”

Shen Mingyuan held her hand: "That's not true, but I received news from your starling brother that my father is going to secretly form an alliance with Xidi, and probably Xidi will also send a princess over." If the tyrannical people lose their wives and soldiers, then Princess Fengquan will definitely go crazy everywhere. ”

Wei Yangyang was ecstatic at first when he heard that Jiao Qi Beihai would go crazy, but then he thought that Xidi would also send a princess, so he looked at Shen Mingyuan meaningfully: "Then who will Princess Xidi marry?" Is it possible to marry His Highness? Shen Mingyuan's head shook like a rattle: "Hey, don't talk nonsense, I don't dare, I don't want to separate my neck from my head." ”

Wei Yangyang couldn't help but smile: "Is it possible to be a side concubine for King Fengquan?" Shen Mingyuan was amused by her: "Of course not." Princess Tyranny is the main concubine, if Princess Xidi is a side concubine, then the two countries must not turn their faces together? Isn't the Fengquan Mansion very lively every day? ”

Wei Yangyang thought about it, but he couldn't think of a result, so he simply didn't want to. It doesn't matter who Princess Xidi marries, anyway, as long as she can block Jiaoqi Beihai, she will be happy.

Jiaoqi Beihai originally wanted to exchange himself for Dayang and the Tyrannical Alliance, to destroy the West Dike together, and to suppress the Wei family by the way. Unexpectedly, she came to Huadu for two years, but the news she waited for was: Wei Bingyue didn't know what method she used, and actually said that she would move Xidi to come and kiss.

The people of the Sitti were also frightened when they saw the destruction of the water demons, the proclamation of Hayes as vassals, and the alliance of tyranny, and offered to exchange horses and furs for food, iron, and water for the Great Sun. Since they were willing to do business honestly and transport grain and iron tools to sell in the past, it was cheaper than fighting, and Emperor Jiahou agreed.

So how do they do business honestly? Naturally, the Wei family was needed to keep a firm eye on them in Haixi. Therefore, the role of the Wei family has not only not decreased, but its status has become more important.

Jiaoqi Beihai's other trouble is that she has never had children, and seeing that Wei Yangyang's waist has been raised, she still hasn't moved at all.

Shen Minghuang's troubles are no less than her, if she is pregnant, then the son in law is the son of a different race, how can a foreign race be the future Emperor of the Great Sun? Then he wants to be the crown prince, but there is no hope. But now that Wei Yangyang is pregnant, if he gives birth to the son of the world, Shen Mingyuan will have one more bargaining chip, which is really a dilemma.

Shen Minghuang and Jiao Qi Beihai's living habits are completely different, and they can't communicate deeply at all, so they only go to her two or three times a month to make a show. Now Sidi is going to send the princess too, and he doesn't even want to do it. But Dayang and Violent Jie can't tear their faces for the time being, so he still has to play a deep love scene with the princess in the palace.

Women are always sensitive, and Jiao Qi Beihai can also feel that Shen Minghuang is always very polite to her, but that is not the emotion between lovers. Like Shen Mingyuan Wei Yangyang, who always looks at each other and smiles while talking, is the real love.

She is a foreign princess, she has no power, no favor, and no children in Dayang, so the end is conceivable. Therefore, the next time Shen Minghuang came, she was extra dedicated.

On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, the emperor took his ministers to Luoqu to preside over the Huadu Dragon Boat Race and enjoy with the people. The queen and her daughter-in-law and daughters ate zongzi and rowed boats in the palace for fun. The others got all big zongzi, but Wei Yangyang got a small one.

Wei Yangyang looked at others and his own, feeling strange, but he didn't dare to ask. Seeing that she hadn't moved her chopsticks for a long time, the queen asked her, "Why don't you eat it?" Wei Yangyang said: "Queen Mother, this one of mine is different from other people's. The queen looked at her with a smile: "If you eat too much glutinous rice, your stomach will be uncomfortable, and now I can only give you a little bit, and I will make it up for you next year, you can eat more vegetables."

Jiaoqi Beihai suddenly opened his mouth on the side: "Brother and sister, eat quickly, the queen mother takes care of you very much." Wei Yangyang looked at Jiao Qi Beihai with a smile: "Imperial sister-in-law, if you are pregnant, the queen mother will take care of it wholeheartedly." We are all waiting for your good news. She also deliberately dragged the word "good news" for a long time.

When he got out of the palace and got into the carriage, Wei Yangyang began to say nothing to Jiaoqi Beihai again: "Imperial sister-in-law, the imperial brother is very good to you, right?" There are no outsiders here, so the two of them don't have to act anymore, Jiao Qi Beihai replied to her coldly: "If you have something to say, just say it." ”

Wei Yangyang saw that their husband and wife were not very affectionate, and Shen Minghuang should be the most affectionate Song Wenru, who is as talented and childhood sweetheart as him, even Song Wenru He has no sincerity, and even his true love Miss Zhang can be abandoned, how can he have true feelings with Jiao Qi Beihai?

Wei Yangyang remembered Shen Mingyuan's words, and didn't dare to be angry with her, so he said mysteriously: "I heard that a man's heart is only so big, not in this woman, it must be in that woman." As for those whom he cares about, he is free every day; For those who don't care about him, then they won't be available every day. The royal brother fell in love with the imperial sister-in-law at first sight, and he can't wait to be with you all the time, which is really enviable. ”

Jiao Qibei Haiqi's teeth itched, she and Shen Minghuang are not only not "together all the time", but even can only see each other a few times a month. And just a few times, Shen Minghuang also sat and left, and the number of nights spent with her may only be once or twice.

Jiaoqi Beihai returned to the mansion, entered his bedroom, and asked the maids to retreat. She opened the jewelry box, took out a belt buckle made of pure iron, pricked her finger with a hairpin, smeared blood beads all over the belt buckle, and began to communicate with Herring.

After she finished channeling with her sweetheart, she put the button back in the jewelry box, and was about to push it up the drawer, but suddenly saw Shen Minghuang's figure in the mirror! She was so frightened that she hurriedly turned around and pretended to be calm: "When did Your Highness come?" Shen Minghuang's expression was very normal: "What are you doing here?" Jiaoqi Beihai hurriedly squeezed out a smile: "Your Highness, this is a way to pray for blessings in our hometown, and I pray for His Highness every day." ”

Shen Minghuang walked closer to her and saw the buckle in the box, which was obviously a men's belt buckle. He had seen Wei Yangyang and Wei Shu'an psychic in Gusu, and knew that it was a way for the living in the Haixi region to remember the deceased. He is not dead now, and of course it is not him that Jiaoqi Beihai misses.

Layer upon layer of blood on the clasp, it had dried up, and the iron glowed with her fingers, because she was psychic almost every day. Shen Minghuang pulled up her right index finger and saw that it was densely covered with pinholes punctured by hairpins.

Princess Fengquan is in her bedroom, channeling with a man every day, she won't tell me like Wei Yangyang, that person is her uncle, right? Shen Minghuang remained silent and pretended to be concerned: "You can't hurt yourself by praying for me, don't do this again in the future." ”

After Shen Minghuang left, Jiao Qi Beihai panicked, she didn't know if the other party had heard of this psychic custom. Wei Yangyang is a Haixi native, and Wei Shuping also lives in Huadu, as long as Shen Minghuang asks a random Wei family, he knows that he is lying to him!

Since that day, Shen Minghuang has come less often. What made Jiaoqi Beihai even more devastated was that a few days later she received news: her second brother thief friend Bei Hai suddenly launched a coup d'Γ©tat and killed the king, that is, her eldest brother who stole Bei Hai!

She was born to the same mother as the thief Bei Hai, and the thief friend Bei Hai was born to another concubine of her father. Since she left, the strength of the thief Beihai was not good, which soon aroused the dissatisfaction of the thief friend Beihai. In addition, she has married Huadu far away, and her thief friend Bei Hai no longer has any worries, so she raised troops and became the monarch herself.

Of course, the Wei family hoped that the more chaotic the country was, the better, so when he stole his friend Bei Haiqin, Wei Bingyue not only did not stop him, but also sent someone to secretly assist him.

Jiaoqi Beihai went to Shen Minghuang for the first time, begging him to enter the palace to persuade Emperor Jiahou to send troops to exterminate the traitors. But what she got in exchange was only a cold refusal from Shen Minghuang: "Although this is a rebellion, it is your violent family matter after all, and it is difficult for us to intervene." But don't worry, Dayang will still be good friends with Fengjie, and you are still the princess of Fengquan.

Yes, no matter who becomes the new monarch, she is still the eldest princess, and she can continue to be the princess of Fengquan. As long as she doesn't make a big mistake, Emperor Jiahou will not abolish her in order to maintain the face of the royal family. But Shen Minghuang's attitude towards her obviously began to slacken.

Jiaoqi Beihai repeatedly recalled what Wei Yangyang said on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival: "A man's heart, if it is not in this woman, it must be in that woman." She can't go back to her hometown, and now her only reliance is Shen Minghuang. Shen Minghuang no longer comes to himself, so where is his heart?

That sentence was originally just a casual remark by Wei Yangyang to satirize Jiaoqi Beihai, but the speaker had no intention of listening to the heart, and Jiaoqi Beihai was now out of power and out of favor, so he took this sentence seriously. Why did Wei Yangyang come to such a sentence without a head? Does she know something? Song Wenru was the best candidate for Princess Fengquan before, could it be that His Royal Highness went to find her to catch up?

Yes, I have no use value, and Your Highness must be looking for her. No, if the second brother didn't have the help of external forces, how could he succeed in one day? Wei Bingyue! Yes, although we have a feud with the Wei family, if he goes to Wei Bingyue for help in this matter, Wei Bingyue will definitely agree to him.

What does Wei Yang mean by that? Could it be that the princess sent by the Sidei really wants to marry His Royal Highness?

The other party just said casually, but here in Jiaoqi Beihai, who was hit one after another, she interpreted dozens of different meanings. She felt that she was going crazy, she knew the cold palace of the great sun, and she had also seen her father reward the concubines who were no longer favored to the generals who had military merits. She knows that a woman who loses her favor will end up very tragically.

And she blamed the source of her misery all on Wei Yangyang and the Wei family. If there is no Wei family, she is still being a noble regent queen, how can she come all the way to recognize people and humiliate her?
