MTL - Feng Xing-Chapter 75
Emperor Jianping was in shock for a long time.
But he is worthy of being a generation of emperors. The mountain collapsed before him and his face remained unchanged, so he quickly regained his composure. After returning to the dragon case, he sat down and looked down at King Wei who was kneeling below with complicated eyes.
"She is a woman, how did she get her fame?"
"Fang Fengfu is her elder brother who died young, and the two are siblings."
"Then what's going on with you and her?"
"My son had met her on several occasions, and by chance, I found out that she was a daughter."
"Then when she sued the prince in court, why didn't you say so?"
"It was useless to expose his identity at that time."
What King Wei said was not wrong. After the matter developed to the end, it didn't matter what happened to Fang Fengfu. The crazy ones were just those who wanted to bring the prince down. In the end, those people have gone mad. In order to pull the prince down, they will do everything they can to bite anyone they see.
The entire court was full of smoky atmosphere. In the end, it was not so much that Emperor Jianping succumbed to the law and the courtiers, it was better to say that he succumbed to the atmosphere. He just wanted to end all this quickly, and if the atmosphere continued, he even There is a feeling that the country is about to perish.
But the origin of all this is Fang Fengfu. If it weren't for her, no one would have made such an opening, and even if they wanted to, they would have to find an opportunity. She created a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for those people, and then those people went crazy.
Now tell him that Fang Fengfu is a woman!
So, what role does his good son play behind the scenes?
King Wei didn't realize that the emperor sitting on the dragon chair looked at him with scrutiny, and the emperor's suspicion reached its peak at this moment.
Maybe he understands, maybe he doesn't care anymore, or maybe he would rather risk the suspicion of the emperor, and he must do something - use himself as a straw rope to get that woman back.
This is a risky move for him.
After that, King Wei spoke out about his relationship with Fang Fengsheng in a very calm tone.
Nine points of truth, mixed with one point of falsehood, everything that can be said has been said, and nothing that cannot be said has not been mentioned. Ever since he and Fang Fengsheng met at Sun's house, the other party used him to successfully reconcile, and then met in Yangzhou, but at that time the other party disguised himself as a man, and he did not recognize it was her.
Then by chance, he saw through the identity of the other party, and after several contacts, he secretly fell in love with him, but the other party dismissed him.
King Wei spoke very concisely, but the affection in his words could not be faked.
Combined with the fact that he is usually not close to women, and he looks like he intends to become a monk, it can make people understand why he would do such absurd behavior today. It is easy not to be emotional, but once emotional, it will be deeply affectionate.
"She plans to deal with the prince, don't you know?"
The main event finally came.
King Wei closed his eyes and leaned down: "I know, I don't know."
Emperor Jianping did not speak, his eyes were deep, obviously waiting for his explanation.
Wei Wangdao: "I know that she wants to reverse the case for my father. I am investigating the case back then. When I was ordered to leave Beijing, I was called to Kunning Palace by my mother, so I learned something. I thought that with her identity, I couldn't find anything at all, so I didn't pay attention to it, and later I realized that she found more things than Erchen imagined, so Erchen did something."
"go on."
"Er Chen misled her and wanted her to deviate from the direction, but Er Chen did not expect that Fang Yan would leave a letter back then. Her goal was on Song Xian from the beginning. Later, in order to prevent her from finding things she shouldn't have , Song Xian's people have done a lot of things again, and there are more and more loopholes. There is no rush to make up for it, so I can only find another way. That time Fan Jinchuan was attacked in Taizhou, and my son took the risk to sneak into the head of the Salt Gang Afterwards, he led troops to suppress the Salt Gang, and once imprisoned her for a period of time, and she threatened to die, but his son was disheartened, so he let her go, and never asked about this matter again.
"Later, my father sent another errand, and my son-in-law was only focused on running the errand. After finishing the errand, I returned to Beijing. I didn't know that she had caused such a catastrophe until the incident happened. In fact, I think it's my fault. The behavior of the minister made her suspicious, and she would not have guessed that the person behind it was the crown prince."
"You mean to say that her goal was only Song Xian at the beginning?"
"At least this is the news I got before I stopped communicating with her. Maybe it was my behavior that made her suspicious, or maybe someone else did something in the middle, all of this is unresolved Know."
"Speaking of it, my son, the dignified prince, was actually played by a woman in the middle of applause?"
King Wei didn't speak, but there was a wry smile on his lowered face.
"Useless stuff!"
The bright yellow teacup fell and fell beside King Wei and shattered, the shards splashed everywhere.
Seeing this, Fu Lu, who had been standing beside him with his head down, hurriedly stepped forward: "His Royal Highness King Wei..."
Emperor Jianping looked along, only to find that there were two bloodstains on King Wei's face.
"Get out!"
King Wei seemed to want to say something, Fu Lu stepped forward to persuade him: "His Royal Highness, Your Majesty is angry, so don't make Your Majesty angry."
He sent King Wei out, but when he turned his head, he heard the horrified **** beside him, and then he realized that King Wei had knelt down outside.
He could only shake his head and sigh again, and hurried in to report to Emperor Jianping.
But Emperor Jianping didn't say a word, his face was so gloomy that he didn't dare to say anything.
The sky is already cloudy, but it is rainy at the turn of spring and summer, and it is just a drizzle outside.
This kind of rain can't kill people, but the weather is still cold, watching the layers of drizzle fall, but it can make people cold to the bone.
King Wei kept kneeling, and the news spread across the six palaces in an instant, and everyone was wondering why King Wei had offended His Majesty.
The King of Wei had an eccentric character since he was a child, and he was never favored by Emperor Jianping, and in recent years, there has been a gust of wind, and the favor has increased. They all thought that with the prince's departure, there are only a few princes who are capable of competing for the position of crown prince, and King Wei is among them. Looking at today's incident, I am afraid it is absurd again.
They were all waiting to watch the big show, but there was only one person who couldn't sit still, and that was Concubine Li.
In the main hall of Xianfu Palace, Concubine Li has been pacing back and forth for almost half an hour, with several maids guarding beside her, her eyes are almost dazzled by her.
Suddenly, Concubine Li said: "Qianru, make up for me, I will go to Qianqing Palace."
"Your Majesty, why don't we wait a little longer, maybe His Majesty will calm down soon?"
"Don't wait, now the whole palace is waiting to see the jokes of my mother and son, what am I waiting for!"
When Concubine Li hurried to Qianqing Palace, it was already raining heavily outside. From a distance, she saw a man kneeling in the rain. Concubine Li gritted her teeth and didn't look any further, she came to the gate of the hall to beg to see him.
When the news reached Fulu's ears, he hesitated and hesitated, and reported it to Emperor Jianping.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Li is here."
"What is she here for? Let her go back!"
Fu Lu took the order and came back after a while, crying and said: "Concubine Li is not leaving." After a pause, he said again: "Your Majesty, it is raining heavily outside, and the servant saw that Concubine Li came in a hurry. , nor a cloak."
Speaking of this, he stopped talking, and peeked at Emperor Jianping's face, but he just hit a pair of eyes.
"What kind of ecstasy drug did she give you, usually you are an old bastard, no matter who asks you, you never intercede for others, but today you have interceded for Concubine Li."
Fu Lu shrank his neck and smiled, and said: "It's not easy for slaves to look at Concubine Li. They usually treat slaves and maids in a friendly manner, asking for warmth. It's been many years. The slaves suffer from guilty conscience every day. Isn't this just..."
Fu Lu is telling the truth, it is really not easy, but even though the palace has always been full of hypocrisy, it is really rare to be so kind to the slaves for decades. It stands to reason that Concubine Li has a grown-up prince and is one of the four concubines, so it is impossible for her to be like this, but she is like this.
why? No confidence.
The women in this palace are like the weeds in the field, there are countless of them, even a little nobleman has more confidence than Concubine Li, but she doesn't, because all the old people in the palace know how she got here Well, she was sent in by Empress Chen's natal family for the sake of solid favor.
When King Wei was six or seven years old, Concubine Li was still living in a side room of Kunning Palace. She didn't even have her own palace. She was a noble person, but her treatment did not meet the standard of a noble person. Because Empress Chen said that she was used to Concubine Li being with her, she could only stay in Kunning Palace, and did not move out until two years later.
Concubine Li has been serving the queen all these years, who didn't notice it? Slave Yangzi's mother gave birth to slave Yangzi's son, and the mother and son were destined to be by the side of Queen Chen's mother and son for the rest of their lives. These words were often circulated in the palace before, that is, after Concubine Li took the imperial concubine position, the rumors gradually disappeared.
Why this is so, in fact, people with discerning eyes know it well, and Emperor Jianping also knows that Empress Chen employs people, but she is afraid that people will climb on her head, and has been oppressing Concubine Li, mother and son.
Until he couldn't hold back any more, he was holding his son openly while holding his mother secretly. After so many years of holding back, until King Wei was almost an adult, he finally did not do it so obviously.
Emperor Jianping recalled the past, and he still remembered the first time he saw Concubine Li.
The tender little Qing Ya'er hid behind the maid, looking at her timidly. Too small, the queen said she was inconvenient and asked her to wait on him, but he thought she was too small, thinking how such a small person could stand the rain and dew.
Later, the queen said it twice, she pulled her sleeves and said that she should be scolded if she couldn't do it, and he was lucky for her. It was surprisingly delicious, and he couldn't help eating it twice. Later, when he noticed that the maid next to the queen gave her a face, he realized that the queen he thought was graceful and magnanimous was actually not that magnanimous.
It's just a joke, he doesn't need to get upset with the queen, and then he doesn't take the initiative to go, only when the queen mentions it, he will go. Unexpectedly, within a few times of his visits, she was pregnant. Once he went to see the newly born queen, and saw her leaning against the door with her belly outstretched.
Such a small person with a big belly makes people palpitate. But he didn't go to see her, but secretly asked Fulu to order the imperial physician who showed her the Ping'an pulse to be more careful, not to treat her as a master just because of her low status.
Later, when she gave birth to King Wei, he didn't go either, because the queen had just lost the second prince at that time. When King Wei was about to be full moon, he went there, and she was lying in that dark room full of stale air, looking at him with such big watery eyes.
"Your Majesty, my concubine has never asked you anything? If King Wei really did something wrong, you can beat him or scold him. Don't punish him like this. He is old and shameless. With so many younger brothers under him, how will he deal with it in the future? Act like an older brother." After Concubine Li came in, she fell on Emperor Jianping's lap and began to cry.
"Do you know what he did to the prince?" Emperor Jianping pursed his lips, but put his hand on Concubine Li's shoulder.
"What can he do to the prince? Your Majesty, the concubine is a woman who doesn't understand anything, but for so many years that the Kunning Palace pointed eastward, the concubine, mother and son dare not go west. Yes, the concubine's status is low. They are reborn parents, but my son is not cheap, he is the prince, he is the son of a dragon, don't blame our mother and son every time something happens in Kunning Palace. If it is implicated, it is enough to implicate me alone, implicate me What does my son do, is it really necessary to force him to become a monk, so that everyone will be satisfied?"
After the words fell, there was not a single sound in the entire hall except Concubine Li's sobbing.
Fu Lu bowed his waist and ran up, whispering: "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood what His Majesty meant. Why don't you go back first, and don't add fuel to the fire..."
"Lead her to the side hall."
Fu Lu hurriedly responded, called two servants, and sent Concubine Li to the side hall with support.
This is also Concubine Li, and I am afraid that someone else will be kicked out right now.
…
Outside the hall, the rain is getting heavier.
King Wei knelt there with his eyes half closed, knowing that his mother had gone in.
He has calculated countless times in his life, but he has never calculated his mother. This time, in order to save that stubborn woman, he even calculated his mother.
He silently counted the time in his mind, but after all, it was cold and rainy, and he had been kneeling for so long, plus these days he was spinning around every day, and he felt weak.
Just when Wei Wang felt a little hot on his forehead, his eyes suddenly darkened.
It's Fulu, holding an oil umbrella.
"Third Highness, His Majesty told you to go in."
King Wei followed him in, and while he was still outside the hall, a young **** brought a towel, and he took it and wiped it casually, before stepping into the hall.
"Do you know where you went wrong?"
"My son knows."
The fault is that the hero is short of breath, the fault is that a majestic prince is played and applauded by a woman, but he doesn't know remorse at all, he would rather fight to be suspected, or boldly beg to marry the person the emperor wants to kill.
But if this is not the case, how can we avoid the suspicion of the emperor?
Ordinary people always have weaknesses, and everything is too perfect, which is enough to make people suspicious, so he mixed nine parts of the truth with a part of falsehood, and told everything about himself and Fang Fengsheng, because he knew that if an emperor wanted to investigate , Those things can't be hidden at all.
Then use this to create a self who is trapped by love, so that there is a chance to save her. And the appearance of his mother also successfully picked him out of the matter of overthrowing the prince.
But these are not enough to gain the trust of an emperor, and there is almost something.
"Now that you know, do you still want to marry her?"
"I know what I'm saying now, and my father won't believe it. From the beginning to the end, I have never thought of anything that doesn't belong to me. I have no way to prove myself. I can only say that I have no intention of making a fool of myself." I just ask my father to allow her to marry me, and from now on, the gods and couples will be a happy king."
If the former words were not enough to surprise Emperor Jianping, the latter words were enough to move him.
It's not uncommon to have no intention of being a big position, but marrying a person who makes the emperor afraid is tantamount to putting oneself in the list of big successors.
"You know what you're talking about?"
"My son knows."
"not regret?"
"not regret."
