Chapter 307: Preserving the Faces of the Royal Family
"Grandpa Huang, what's wrong with youGrandpa Huang, Hao'er recites sutras and prays with Grandmother Huang'er every day, why hasn't your illness recovered yet?"
It was a child under the age of ten who was crying and sobbing.
"There are assassins, they captured the imperial grandmother, only Hao'er escaped, you quickly send someone to save the imperial grandmother, the father is gone, I'm so scared, woo woo."
The cute child like a porcelain doll cried so much that his eyebrows and eyes were red, like a deer that had lost his shelter, which made people feel sorry and hurt.
Although King Ping Suchen taught his grandson to do many things, he never told him why he did it, only that he was steady and diligent, and he would be liked by more people.
So the appearance of a young man who has faded off his disguise, in fact, the grandson is just a simple child.
It is precisely because he knows that this child has not been raised crookedly by King Chen that Emperor Jianning really loves him from the bottom of his heart.
At this time, he propped himself up and wiped the tears from his grandson's face.
"Hao'er is not afraid, with the imperial grandfather here, no one will hurt you, your father has already gone to catch the bad guys and save your imperial grandmother, the imperial grandfather is unwell, he has drunk medicine, he wants to lie down and rest, Hao'er listens to the words of the nurse, can he also go to rest?"
Taisun grabbed Emperor Jianning's arm, a little hesitant.
Emperor Jianning pulled out another smile and comforted.
"Grandpa Huang just sleeps, will I take you to the Imperial Garden tomorrow?"
At this time, Wang Lianyi also immediately stepped forward to coax.
"Your Royal Highness, the emperor is in poor health, and he has to rest well so that he can recover quickly."
Hearing this, Taisun stood up with tears in his eyes, and kowtowed to Emperor Jianning in a proper manner.
"Then the emperor's grandfather has a good rest, and his grandson has retired."
Emperor Jianning smiled and waved his hand, and after watching the figure of the grandson out of the palace gate, he coughed violently, and his face turned pale.
But Rao is like this, Emperor Jianning still firmly met King Chen.
When people were brought, they were already in a mess.
His body was stained with blood, his eyes were red, his hair was loose and crooked, and his hair was messy.
Not only Emperor Jianning, but several ministers present couldn't help frowning when they saw him like this.
Shen Qianwei was also among them, holding a knife and standing next to Emperor Jianning's couch at this moment, temporarily acting as a royal guard.
Therefore, as soon as King Chen entered the hall, in addition to Emperor Jianning on the couch, he was the first to see Shen Qianwei.
He didn't kneel down and saluted, but after his eyes scanned the hall, he sneered.
"Father, you really found yourself a good dog who is loyal."
When he said this, his eyes were fixed on Shen Qianwei, gloomy and distorted.
He naturally hated it, after all, without Shen Qianwei's sudden appearance, he should not have been defeated so quickly.
Emperor Jianning obviously knew his thoughts, and his eyes sank like water.
"Do you really think that I only made this move, do you think that Wu Peng of Bianjingwei, he really obeys your orders? He used to be my personal bodyguard, would he betray me because of an in-law?! ”
Wu Peng's concubine is the wife of Xu Yuanhong, the eldest son of the Duke of Ruiguo, that is, the cousin-in-law of King Chen.
King Chen's face was cold and hard, "Father and Emperor are clever, and he set a trap just waiting for his son to jump, so why bother to ridicule it now." ”
"Why did I tempt you, don't you know?" Emperor Jianning trembled a little, "But if you don't have the heart of rebellion, why don't you do this!" ”
"Isn't it true that my father wanted to kill his son first? Isn't it true that my father wants to avenge the seventh and third children?! King Chen shouted angrily, his face hideous.
"I've never thought of it that way!" Emperor Jianning retorted sharply.
Emotions were so agitated that they broke their voices.
"I, I have lost two sons, how can I be willing to lose another one, you ask yourself, why did I investigate you, it was because of corruption, because of the salt tax! I know everything else, I have mentioned half a word! ”
Looking at Emperor Jianning's angry appearance, King Chen was not touched at all, but calmed down and lowered his eyes.
"The matter has come to this, if you want to kill or chop, let your father dispose of it, but beg your father to spare Hao'er's life."
In his heart, he has long been separated from Emperor Jianning.
It was because he caused a natural disaster and broke his arm, and since then he has no chance of the throne that was at his fingertips.
It was also because he mutilated his siblings that he was weak and afraid, and felt that Emperor Jianning would bewitch him at any time.
is even more because his pursuit of power has gone crazy, even under the guise of his son, he has cultivated him as his puppet.
"Naturally, I won't hurt Hao'er, the child is innocent." Emperor Jianning also calmed down and looked at him deeply.
King Chen's face was expressionless, but he saluted, "Thank you for your kindness." ”
At this moment, he seemed to be back to his former deferential appearance.
"Stand down." Emperor Jianning waved his hand.
He was too physically fit to say more.
Wang Lianyi immediately beckoned and asked the guards to take people down.
The hall was quiet, and Emperor Jianning ordered all the slaves to withdraw from the hall, leaving a few henchmen behind.
As for what was said, outsiders have no way of knowing.
But half an hour later, someone came to report that when King Chen hit the pillar and died, Emperor Jianning was angry and bloody, vomiting blood and fainting.
He hadn't thought about killing King Chen.
After all, King Chen is his eldest son, the son he once valued the most, but he didn't expect that this was because King Chen didn't want to live.
There was chaos inside and outside the palace, and Shen Qianwei was busy cleaning up the mess, so he couldn't take a break to pick up Su Junning.
However, he still sent Zheng Han to answer and sent the people back to Su Mansion.
Su Yi is also fine, he has already devoted himself to the arrangement of court affairs, and he has pulled Su Yuhui and Su Yuan to help.
This is an opportunity to experience.
That is, Cui's and the pregnant Fang suffered a little, Cui's body was injured, and Fang's was frightened, and some of them had fetal gas, but it was fine, and they could rest and recuperate.
In the next five or six days, Shen Qianwei was busy and disappeared.
Until the court announced the cause of the riot in the city.
It is said that the remnants of the Jin Dynasty had an incident, and Shen Qianwei, the general of Dingyuan, who was driven back to the capital in time to restore the salt tax case, put down the rebellion, and the queen and the king of Chen were seriously injured and died in order to protect the emperor's grandson.
And as a result, a group of courtiers in the court who had anything to do with the King of Jin were killed, killed, and dismissed.
As for why it was not said that it was King Chen's rebellion, in the end, it was because Emperor Jianning wanted to keep his grandson and save the face of the royal family.
If the grandson wants to ascend the throne smoothly, can't he have such a stain on his biological father, and the royal family.
First there were seven princes colluding with the king of Yu, and then there was the king of Jin to set up an ambush to kill the king, these things happened one after another, which has made the people's hearts float, if there is a rebellion against the king of Chen, it is necessary to make the people feel that the royal family is unstable and untrustworthy.
By the time this turmoil has completely subsided, it will be almost the end of October.
Shen Qianwei has made meritorious contributions, and has become more and more trusted by Emperor Jianning, and now he is regarded as an important minister in the court, holding the military power of 50,000 troops in the military camp on the outskirts of Beijing, and he is an upstart.
It is precisely because of the prosperity of the Shen family that many people who used to think that the daughter of the Su family was low-married, but they envied Su Junning's good vision of picking a husband.
