Chapter 548: The Events of the Year

"Zhen Guogong has just passed away, and his children need to serve three years of mourning, and they are not allowed to discuss their relatives. Danyang is not young and can't afford to delay, so at this time, taking advantage of the heat and filial piety to get married, nothing will be delayed. ”

Zhao Chengyuan replied lightly, as if he was talking about something inconsequential.

He didn't tell You Ning about this, he didn't mean to hide it, he just felt that it wasn't too important, and there was no need to talk to her.

He didn't have the habit of scheming with others, and he didn't want to spend his mind on such trivial matters, especially if the other party was a woman.

He originally thought that Wang Caidan was a person who lived transparently, and he had previously teamed up with Han Qingwan to design Youning's innocence, but he only thought she was confused and didn't care about her.

But she didn't know how to restrain herself, and she matched with Youning and the prince several times, and framed Youning, so he had to do it once and for all, completely cutting off her thoughts.

Han Youning smiled, "The prince looks like he thinks about others, you should know where Danyang's mind is, she is afraid that Fang's heart is broken now." ”

Zhao Chengyuan's tone was flat, even indifferent, "Where are there so many cheap things in this world, she always has to choose the same life when marrying and marrying a family." ”

Han Youning looked at the earrings in his hand, the sapphires on them glowed with a faint luster, luxurious and restrained.

Wang Caidan, a transparent woman, was obsessed with Zhao Chengyuan and was confused. She still remembered Wang Caidan's kindness to her, but in another life, that kindness turned into hatred with Zhao Chengyuan's intervention, and finally got such an ending.

Now that the emperor is completely intolerant of the Wang family, it is impossible for Wang Caidan to marry the prince, so if she can marry a good son who is dedicated to her, it will be a good family business. It's just that whether she can figure it out is hard to say.

Han Youning sighed faintly, and didn't talk about this matter anymore, Zhao Chengyuan didn't like to talk about other women in front of her.

Even the servant girls in the house, he doesn't like to touch, he never asks them to do things around him, and most of the interested handmaidens are far away from him. Because of the unhappiness of the King of Jin, the King of Jin only needed a look, and the steward pulled them out to sell.

Han Youning put the earrings into the cage and said, "The prince designed a chain, but when the situation was good, he didn't kill the Wang family, and he didn't cause bloodshed all over the city, which is already your great kindness." I hope this is the end of this matter, and there will be no more incidents. ”

Zhao Chengyuan said, "The Wang family should always pay the price for the wrong things they did back then. But the crime of treason is too big, if the Wang family is beheaded, many supporters of the Wang family will also be the end of the nine clans. If the Wang family only kills the mastermind, the emperor can't punish others too severely. ”

He threw down the towel, picked up the tea on the kang table and took a sip, "The battle for power, once you want to win or lose, is often accompanied by blood, but how many of them are innocent people who are implicated." If I am desperate, how different am I from others? ”

Zhao Chengyuan's eyebrows were cold, but there was warmth in his words.

The "other" he said refers to Emperor Qingming, right?

Han Youning originally thought that Zhao Chengyuan designed the Wang family to frame Wang Can and Wang Caidan, but listening to Zhao Chengyuan's intentions, it seems that there is another reason.

She asked, "What happened back then?" ”

Zhao Chengyuan's eyes lowered, and he said lightly, "When my father died, my mother hanged herself a few days later, and followed my father. Everyone is praising the deep love between the Empress Dowager Lu and the first emperor, but the truth is that the queen mother committed suicide by hanging herself under the joint coercion of the imperial brother and the then Zhenguo Gong in order to protect me.

The queen mother is the queen of the Yuan, I am the son-in-law, and I should be the rightful heir, plus I was born with a vision, and when my father was alive, he had the idea of making me the prince, and the prince's mansion has begun to be renovated according to my wishes. It's a pity that my father got a blood certificate and died within a year.

The imperial brother was not worried about me, but he was afraid of the military power of the Anling Houfu and did not dare to forcibly persecute him, so he worked the side of the queen mother. The queen mother has a motherly heart, knowing that as long as she is in one day, the royal brother will be jealous of me for one day. She was moved by the royal brother and the old town prince for a while, and she was willing to hang herself. ”

Zhao Chengyuan drank all the tea, "Now that the Zhenguo Mansion has lost power, it should be my revenge for the day." For the rest, slowly liquidate. ”

Han Youning sat there stunned.

It turned out that there was still this blood feud between the Wang family and Zhao Chengyuan. No wonder Zhao Chengyuan often went to Shou'an Hall these days, facing the tablets of the first emperor and the Empress Dowager Lu, and sat there for an hour or two.

Empress Dowager Lu had the grace of nurturing and sheltering Zhao Chengyuan, but she didn't think that her death was also to protect Zhao Chengyuan. This heavy kindness, Zhao Chengyuan can't repay it anyway.

In this way, the Wang family only died Wang Can and Wang Mao, which can be regarded as Zhao Chengyuan's special restraint. But I don't know how much effort he has to spend to convince himself that there is no blood to wash the royal family.

Zhao Chengyuan frowned when he saw the little girl, and he didn't speak in a daze.

He beckoned to her, "Come here." ”

Han Youning came back to his senses, "What to do?" ”

Zhao Chengyuan pointed to his scattered hair, "Help tie your husband's hair." ”

Han Youning didn't move, "I don't comb well." ”

Zhao Chengyuan: "It's okay. ”

"The prince has been very fond of instructing me to do things recently, your hands will be good tomorrow morning, and you will always let me help you with your bathing and hair."

Han Youning muttered, but he still resigned himself to taking the comb and walking to the bed.

It's not that she doesn't want to be his wife's responsibility, it's that every time he helps him bathe and change clothes, he looks at her differently than usual, so that she doesn't know how to move her hands and feet.

He loved to see her embarrassment, and she knew it.

Zhao Chengyuan smiled and curled up on the couch, turned his back to her and said, "In the past, there were small servants to do these jobs for me, and I didn't do it better than you." Now that you and I are married, it is not very convenient for the little maid to enter and exit, so I have to bother the princess. ”

"Excuses."

Han Youning complained in his mouth, but his hands were not idle, and he slowly helped him through his hair with a comb.

After these days of recuperation, the hair growing at the base of his hair was already black, and the hair underneath was slowly starting to turn black. Now his hair looks gray, and if you don't look at his face, he looks like an old man, no better than before.

Zhao Chengyuan enjoyed her service, looked back at her from time to time, and joked with her. If he had watched it for a long time, the little girl's cheeks would have flushed, and his subordinates would have lost their weight, and they would tear off one or two hairs from time to time.

The midday sun shone into the house, warm.

Ye Chang's voice came from outside, "Lord Wang, the county lord of Danyang asks to see you." ”

The smile on Zhao Chengyuan's face turned cold, "Let her go back." ”

Ye Chang hesitated slightly, "She has been at the gate of the mansion for more than half an hour, saying that if the prince refuses to meet, she will keep waiting." ”

Zhao Chengyuan's expression did not loosen, "Then let her wait." ”
