After Qin Yu went out, the movement of drinking and having fun in the secluded hall alarmed Prince Ying, the left and right ministers and others.Everyone who had already rested got up in unison and hurried to follow the sound.Qin Yu's face was angry, his body seemed to be sealed by ice and snow, and in the night, the whole person was frighteningly cold."
Knock on the emperor" Everyone walked quickly to Qin Yu and saluted Qin Yu.Qin Yu glanced at everyone, waved his hand, and did not speak."
Your Majesty, but what happened" Prince Ying stepped forward, glanced at Xie Fanghua, saw that her face was as ugly, and asked carefully."
Uncle go and see it yourself" Qin Yu bypassed Prince Ying and pulled Xie Fanghua forward.Prince Ying turned his head, and saw Qin Yu going angrily, and turned his head to look at Prince Ying."
I've never seen the emperor so angry, what happened" Prince Ying and Princess Ying were puzzled."
Let's go and have a look."
Prince Ying said.Princess Ying nodded.glanced at each other left and right, and together with Yongkang Hou and others, he hurriedly walked towards the secluded palace.The distance was closer, and only a crying and begging for mercy could be heard from inside.When I came to the door, I saw that the palace had been surrounded by heavy soldiers, and the water could not be passed.Prince Ying came to the front and asked a person, "What happened?"
and the man greeted Prince Ying and the others, and briefly explained it.Prince Ying was furious when he heard this, "How can this be true" Prince Ying and Princess Ying were also angry, "The first emperor has just entered the earth, and he has not yet rested, so he is in this place of the imperial mausoleum, the place where he is bedded, indulging in wine and music, and the sound of dogs and horses, it is really ridiculous" "No wonder the emperor is so angry" The left and right ministers are facing each other.Yongkang Hou glanced inside and asked the man, "You just said that the emperor ordered that this place be blocked, and not a single fly is allowed to fly out."
cut off water and food, and after they all died, they were buried with the emperor." ”The man nodded."
The third prince and the fifth prince," Marquis Yongkang looked at Prince Ying.Prince Ying hated iron and could not make steel, and he was so angry that he did not speak.Prince Ying and Princess Ying were angry, "It's just right that they are all dead, so as not to disgrace the royal family alive." ”Yongkang Hou stopped.Everyone was speechless."
Uncle, aunt, save us."
The third prince and the fifth prince probably heard the sound outside, ran out of the inner hall, and asked Prince Ying and Princess Ying for help through the heavy armor.The Imperial Guards stood with spears and blocked the two inside the palace gate.Prince Ying saw that the two of them were disheveled, there were red marks of rouge on their faces and necks, and there was a group of women's cries inside, where was there still a little bit of the prince's dignity, he snorted coldly, ignored the two, and turned around angrily.Prince Ying and Princess Ying didn't bother to look at it, turned around and followed Prince Ying away.Zuo Xiang is Qin Yu's person, and he couldn't get used to seeing the third prince and the fifth prince because they were born to the favorite concubine of the first emperor, so he went against his sister-in-law Qin Yu, so he naturally ignored it and turned away.The right minister shook his head and left.As soon as the Marquis of Yongkang was about to take a step, the third prince and the fifth prince shouted, "Master Hou, save us." ”Yongkang Hou stopped, looked at the two, and sighed, "The two princes, the first emperor was mourned, just entered the earth, and the filial piety period has not yet expired, the two of you actually drink and have fun, indulge in wine, especially in this place of imperial tombs, disrespect the emperor, defile the ancestors, the emperor is angry, even the always benevolent prince is furious, I can't save you." ”"Please, Master Hou, we don't dare anymore.You plead with the fourth brother. ”The third prince and the fifth prince almost cried bitterly, they were really afraid, and as soon as the wind blew, the wine had already been scared awake.Yongkang Hou shook his head.As soon as the two of them saw that Yongkang Hou was leaving, they immediately cried and shouted, "Hou Ye, Hou Ye, don't go, for so many years, our mother concubine has not been less wooing you, begging" Yongkang Hou's face suddenly changed, once Concubine Shen and Concubine Liu were favored, and the second concubine was in the court and the queen fought against each other, he didn't dare to offend the two, so he had to respond in a roundabout way, now the new emperor has not yet ascended the throne, the two of them have such a big filthy thing, the dog is in a hurry, and he has no mouth to hide, if he is dragged down, even if he will not be dragged into the water, he will be picked up a layer of skin, he was startled, and immediately said, "The two princes are talking nonsense." , the minister has always adhered to his duties, if the two concubines know that the two of you are disrespectful to the emperor, I am afraid that it will be even more heartbroken. ”"Yes, mother, mother, can save us."
When the third prince heard this, he immediately said to the fifth prince, "Quickly let people know the mother concubine." ”When the fifth prince heard this, he immediately looked at Yongkang Hou for help, "Master Hou, please, read on the old friendship, you can't see death without help." ”Yongkang Hou looked at the two of them with a white face, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "I'll go and beg the emperor to see if the emperor can open the net, if the emperor can't open the net, I can't do anything, at most help the two of you to report a message to the two concubines in the palace." ”"Thank you Lord Hou, thank you Master Hou, your great kindness, we will definitely repay it."
The two immediately grabbed the straw.Yongkang Hou begged for mercy and said, "I don't need to repay the two of you, I still want to save my head and enjoy my old age in peace, just don't hurt me with your mouth openly." ”After saying that, he turned his head and walked quickly.After the third prince and the fifth prince left, they fell to the ground in a dejected manner.Marquis Yongkang walked all the way to the dormitory where Qin Yu lived, thinking about how to intercede for the third and fifth princes as he walked.He had just walked a short distance, and at a corner, a person came out, scared him, and shouted, "What person" and "It's me." ”Left Xiangdao.Yongkang Hou breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh, it's Zuo Xiang, I was scared to death, I thought it was someone." ”Zuo Xiang looked at him and asked in a low voice, "The third prince and the fifth prince caught you and asked you for help" Yongkang Hou had a headache when he heard this, "It's not so-called, take my shortcomings, such as pinching my ribs, I shouldn't regret it back then" Zuo Xiang snorted and interrupted him, "Regret shouldn't stand on orthodoxy, left and right and mud, and both sides are not pleased." ”Yongkang Hou choked, looked at Zuo Xiang, and said helplessly, "Xiangye, don't look at my jokes, you know the situation of my Yongkang Hou Mansion best, you have always relied on the hereditary shadow of the ancestral shade, can you stand up to the discord in the court When I was young, I also wanted to make contributions."
Later, it wasn't that I was smoothed out of my suffering, who did I hide" Zuo Xiang heard this, and originally wanted to sarcastically mock Yongkang Hou, but changed his words, "When the old lady didn't let you go to the military camp to make military merits and take military power, it was also considered, I was afraid that the Yongkang Marquis Mansion would become the second loyal and brave Marquis Mansion that made the royal family jealous, with a hereditary title, and then there were military merits, how could the emperor tolerate the momentum and overpower the imperial power" Yongkang Hou nodded, "When I was a teenager, I didn't understand, and then I also figured it out."
The royal family gives a hereditary title, and our hereditary nobles must be mixed, and the descendants cannot have a chance, and once they have a chance, they will be feared by the imperial power.A few years ago, the prince competed for the position of prince, if I didn't get along, the emperor would have not allowed the Yongkang Marquis Mansion a long time ago. ”"Well, you can see clearly, for so many years, the emperor has been supporting the Yongkang Marquis Mansion."
Zuo Xiang nodded.But now that it is good, the cause of the year caused the later style of acting, which has evolved into today's effect.No, the two princes have taken my handle. ”Yongkang Hou begged Zuo Xiang, "Xiangye, please give me a trick to save me." ”"You really want me to point out the tricks," Zuo Xiang looked at him.Yongkang Hou nodded, "I don't dare to touch the new emperor's brow at this time, the new emperor is not the first emperor, and the Yongkang Hou Mansion has always been disliked by him." ”Zuo Xiang approached him, "Nian has been an official in the same dynasty for many years, although you did not defect to the prince's camp earlier, you have never defected to the camp of the two concubines.There is nothing difficult for the new emperor over the years.What's more, although the Fan Yang Lu family has been restricting me, I am from the Fan Yang Lu family, and although my niece Xueyan failed to marry your boy, the friendship between us is still there.I'll show you the way. ”"Thank you, thank you."
Yongkang Hou was overjoyed and thanked him again and again."
Don't thank you too soon."
Yongkang Hou approached him and whispered in a low voice, "Your little county lord and Miss Fanghua have an ordinary relationship, and your wife is also saved by Miss Fanghua's medical skills, Miss Fanghua and the prince returned to Beijing together, and have been living in the palace.Her status in the hearts of our new emperor, you don't need me to say, you should understand" Yongkang Hou was stunned for a moment, "You mean to let me beg" Zuo Xiang nodded, "If you really want to save the two princes, there is only this way, Miss Fanghua will respond, and the emperor will definitely respond." ”"Where do I really want to save those two, but I don't want them to talk nonsense out of desperation" Yongkang Hou said helplessly, "If the things of the year are found out at this time, what good will it do me and I still want to enjoy my old age alive." ”"Whether you want to save it or not, if you want to save yourself, just look for her."
Left Xiangdao.Yongkang Hou nodded, "You have a point, I'll go find Miss Fanghua." ”After the words fell, he turned around and left, and after taking two steps in a hurry, he felt that something was wrong, turned around and dragged Zuo Xiang and asked in a low voice, "Xiangye, what are your plans to let me test Miss Fanghua's position in the emperor's heart" Zuo Xiang knocked his hand off, "Isn't this official showing the Hou Ye a clear way" Yongkang Hou glared, "Although you and I have some friendships, you and I both know in our hearts that those friendships are untenable."
If you tell me the truth, don't help me or hurt me. ”Zuo Xiang looked at Yongkang Hou, and Yongkang Hou also glared at him.The two stared at the young lady for a moment, and Zuo Xiang pulled him helplessly, walked to a secluded place, and whispered, "Your brother is really sleek, slippery like a loach, no wonder the Yongkang Marquis Mansion has been taken care of by the emperor for so many years, it is not unreasonable." ”"None of that."
Yongkang Hou waved his hand, "Talk about the current matter." ”"Right now, Miss Fanghua used to dislike the emperor very much, and we can see it with a discerning eye.Now when he came back from Lin'an City, he changed his normal behavior, and he was very harmonious with the emperor, and he rode the jade chariot together, comparable to the emperor and queen. ”Zuo Xiang whispered, "Even I'm confused, I don't quite understand, is the emperor really going to marry Miss Fanghua?"
”Yongkang Hou said, "Anyway, Miss Fanghua is now a free body, marrying freedom, and thanks to the South Qin Jiangshan Sheji, since she saved Lin'an City, the people's reputation is extremely high."
It is said that she is a match for the emperor. ”"That being said, the emperor wants to serve the emperor with filial piety, and the filial piety period should be at least one year.What if anything changes in this?"
said Zuo Xiang again.Yongkang Hou looked at him, and suddenly suddenly, "I understand, Miss Fanghua has never liked you very much, you are afraid that because she is by the emperor's side, she will really be canonized by the emperor in the future, then, if she says a word, you will lose your trust and fall out of favor." ”Zuo Xiang's face flushed, a little embarrassed, but he didn't deny it, "Master Hou, you know, it's not easy to be an official in the court." ”The words fell, and patted him on the shoulder, "You and I are mutually beneficial."
You can talk to Miss Fanghua, probe the tone, for the third prince and the fifth prince, I will find a way to help you get through the past and muddy things. ”"Well, you have a point," Yongkang Hou nodded, "I'll go find Miss Fanghua now." ”Zuo Xiang nodded.The two reached an agreement, and Yongkang Hou hurriedly walked towards where Xie Fanghua lived.After Zuo Xiang waited for him to leave, he glanced at the remote palace where the third prince and the fifth prince were besieged by the Imperial Forest Army, and shook his head.After Qin Yu and Xie Fanghua left, they returned to the palace.Qin Yu didn't go back to his residence, but entered the place where Xie Fanghua lived, and walked all the way, his face was still as heavy as frost.The waiter painting and the waiter ink also smelled some rumors about the three princes and the five princes drinking and having fun, and when they saw the two coming back, they hurriedly poured tea for the two.Qin Yu drank all the tea in one go, put down the teacup, and said angrily, "As princes, they actually do such things, the common people all hang white stripes and wear plain clothes to mourn their father, do not drink alcohol, and delay happy events to show avoidance, they are the sons of their father, and they actually do such things when their father is just buried in the emperor, it is really hateful" Xie Fanghua also felt that the third prince and the fifth prince were really ridiculous, no wonder even Qin Yu's fingers could not be compared."
It was in vain that my father had spoiled them for many years.In order to save their lives, they were sent to the imperial tomb. ”Qin Yu was furious, "This kind of thing, dying here, is also a place to defile the royal family's mausoleum." ”Xie Fanghua took the teapot and poured him another cup of tea, but did not speak.Qin Yu glanced at her, saw that her face was calm, and gradually suppressed his anger, "Fortunately, I accompanied you to the underground palace today, otherwise I didn't know that they would dare to be so ridiculous." ”"Don't be angry."
Xie Fanghua motioned for him to drink tea, "It's not worth punishing yourself for other people's mistakes." ”"How can you not be angry."
Qin Yu was still angry, but his face was already better, he picked up the tea and took a sip slowly, "I didn't want to eradicate my brothers after my father died, I was born from the same root, but they are like this, how can I spare them" "The Liu family and the Shen family moved out of the capital, and Concubine Shen and Concubine Liu also became concubines in the palace after the death of the first emperor, and there is no threat or action to do."
The power of the three princes and the five princes has long been uprooted, and now there is only one prince left, to put it bluntly, that is, two wastes. ”Xie Fanghua said, "Killing them is just a temporary relief, if this matter is not blocked, it will be a royal scandal, if it is blocked, if it is not spread, the people of the world will say that the bones of the first emperor are not cold, and the new emperor will kill the same flesh and blood."
Your hard work and reputation as a prince have been in vain. ”Qin Yu raised his eyes and looked at Xie Fanghua, "According to your meaning, they can't kill yet" "Killing two wastes has caused you to be in a dilemma, the old and the new are already replaced, internal and external troubles, isn't your reputation more important than the lives of two wastes" Xie Fanghua looked at him.Qin Yu was annoyed, "But when I think of them just now, I can't wait to kill them."
Do you still have to keep these things, the water can carry the boat, and it can also capsize the boat.Tens of millions of people in Southern Qin are watching the new emperor's ascension to the throne after the death of the first emperor.If you have just buried the emperor, you will kill your siblings, and the world will be full of people, and you can't block it. ”Xie Fanghua said, "You should know the pros and cons. ”Hearing this, Qin Yu stretched out his hand to rub his eyebrows, leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes in frustration.Xie Fanghua stopped talking.A short time later, footsteps could be heard outside.The waiter and waiter stood at the door, glanced out, and when they saw the person clearly, they whispered inside, "Your Majesty, Miss, Yongkang Hou is here." ”"What is he going to do" Qin Yu rubbed his eyebrows and his hand.Xie Fanghua glanced out, pondered for a moment, and said, "It should be for the third prince and the fifth prince to intercede" "Plea" Qin Yu was angry when he heard it, "There are really people who dare to intercede for them" "Yongkang Hou should also be forced to be helpless." ”Xie Fanghua looked at the Yongkang Hou who came cautiously while wiping his sweat while walking, smiled and said, "I didn't know much about the Yongkang Hou before, but later I came into contact with it and found that it was more sleek than the right minister. ”Qin Yu opened his eyes and nodded approvingly, "It's too sleek, it's not likely." ”Xie Fanghua glanced at him, "You don't like him, you like Zuo Xiang's kind of obedient person, when he lets him show his edge, he shows his edge, and when he lets him hold his tail, he holds his tail." ”Qin Yu was angry and laughed, "You said it." ”Xie Fanghua smiled when he saw him, and took the opportunity to say, "Now that the DPRK and China are employing people, even if you don't like it, you can't eradicate it in a big way."
People like Yongkang Hou, if they are used well, they are actually the most useful.Now the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion is empty, and the hereditary nobles are all in the limelight with the Marquis of Yongkang's Mansion.In my opinion, the first emperor is gone, and you are the new emperor, and it is the time to win people's hearts.It's better to take this opportunity to give Yongkang Hou a face, so that he can swear allegiance to you from now on. ”Qin Yu glanced out, then slowly turned his head to look at her, and gradually came back to his senses, "He came to you to intercede." ”Xie Fanghua took a sip of the teacup, and slowly put it down, "What's the use of looking for me, it's not up to you to decide." ”:
