MTL - Unforgettable Emperor’s Favor-Chapter 133 in principle

The night was dark, the stars faded, and there was no sound at all in the huge palace. The lantern swayed in the wind, crackling against the pillars. Princess Song hugged the quilt and leaned on the slum, and couldn't help but look outside every time she coughed twice. I didn't know how many times I looked around like this, but there were footsteps outside the house. Princess Song's eyes lit up, and she quickly shouted: "Stop saluting, come in quickly."

The dowry mother stood up according to Princess Song's words, and quickly walked to the edge. As soon as the mother-in-law approached, Princess Song couldn't wait to grab her hand and asked, "How is the family? What does grandma say, are mother and sisters all right?"

The dowry mother's face was solemn, and she said slowly: "Princess, the situation in the Song Mansion is probably not good."

Princess Song's already weak face suddenly sank, turning blue in the white, looking extremely unhealthy: "What did you say?"

"The leader's mansion is in charge of the guard palace, and that day he participated in resisting King Langya from entering the city at the city gate. All the generals of the leader's mansion were detained. Except for sending someone back to deliver the letter, the Lord Lang never appeared again. Inquiring, it can be regarded as finding out, the Lord is now locked in prison!"

Princess Song felt dizzy when she heard this. The dowry nanny said that the Lord is Princess Song's father, General Song who leads the military mansion, the most official position in the Song family, and the pillar that supports the entire Song family. The leader's mansion is responsible for guarding the palace and guarding the city gates. One can imagine how important the position is. Concubine Song's ability to become the first wife of the eldest prince is also due to having a father who holds great power. Princess Song has always been proud of her family background. Even though she is sick and unable to bear children, she still sits firmly as the main wife because of her father. Princess Song has always looked down on those concubines who are fighting, and feels that they are disgraceful. Hateful. But now, Princess Song suddenly learned that her father was in prison.

All the sense of superiority of Princess Song collapsed, her eyes were lost, and she murmured: "The life and death of the county king is unknown, and now my father has also lost his position and is in prison, so what should I do?"

"Hey, princess, don't think about the glory of the rest of your life, you should save your life first." The dowry mother hurried around, losing her tone, and said, "Princess, the Song family is in chaos now. Madam and the young ladies were crying like tears. The old lady said, you are the princess, and now the highest status person in the Song family, the life and death of the Lord Lang, and the future life and death of the Song family all depend on you, the princess!"

Princess Song's eyes were confused, and she even felt incredible: "Rely on me? My body is weak, my husband died, and I have no children under my knees. I can't even take care of myself. How can I save the entire Song family?"

"Princess, this is why you are confused. After all, you are Princess Guangping, the only daughter-in-law of the Holy Majesty and the Queen's Empress." The dowry mother looked around, moved closer and said in a low voice, "Although the one who invaded the capital and controlled As for government affairs, after all, I dare not do things that would cause chaos. As long as the Holy Majesty is still alive, you will be the Crown Princess-to-be for a day. That person dare not do anything to you."

Princess Song sneered and said sarcastically: "Don't dare? That's not necessarily the case. He even killed the queen. I'm just the queen's daughter-in-law. Why wouldn't he dare? Today, the spies from the palace sent news that the county king is dead. It was still killed by King Langya himself. The county king is dead, and now it is impossible to say that even the emperor can’t be saved, where can I show the prince’s profile?"

Why doesn’t the dowry nanny know this truth? Princess Song has no heirs herself, the emperor is recuperating in name but is actually under house arrest, the empress was poisoned to death in public, and King Guangping was also defeated and killed. None of the people who belonged to Princess Song’s status and glory were spared . At this juncture, Princess Song's father was imprisoned, life and death were on the line, and now the Song family did not dare to dream of the princess's natal family. In this situation, it is lucky to be able to hold the whole family alive.

But the dowry mother knows that Gui knows, and now she still wants to persuade Princess Song to come forward. After all, Concubine Song is the most powerful person in the Song family, only she still has the chance to get in touch with King Langya, the others can't even see the corner of Murong Yan's clothes. The dowry mother persuaded: "Princess, this old slave knows that it is not easy for you, but the old lady really has no choice. The master is still locked in a prison. You know that kind of place, and no one who goes in can be complete." He came out. The Lord has been pampered and respected for many years, how can he bear this kind of crime, if he does not let the Lord come out, I am afraid, he will be gone!"

Princess Song was dizzy and dizzy for a while, and her heart palpitations were severe. Her health was not good in the first place, and after this period of fear, her foundation completely collapsed. Princess Song smiled wryly, and asked, "What does grandma want me to do?"

The dowry mother cautiously walked to the window, and after making sure that there was no one on the left or right, she closed the window, leaned into Princess Song's ear and whispered: "Princess, on the day of the palace change, that person went straight to The Yu family."

Princess Song frowned, why is it the Yu family again. She felt unhappy for some reason, and asked, "So what, what do you want to say?"

The dowry mother gritted her teeth, and said directly: "Princess, the old lady used the contacts accumulated by the Song family for many years to find out with great difficulty. The Qin Tianjian is already counting the days of the one who intends to make Yu Wenjun's daughter a concubine."

"Yu Wenjun's daughter? Yu Wenjun's daughter isn't that idiot..." Song Wangfei suddenly realized that her voice was uncontrollable, "You mean Yu Qingya's younger sister, Yu Qingjia?"

"It's her."

Princess Song couldn't believe it, and murmured: "How is it possible, why did she get involved with King Langya? King Langya Zhang Wu left the capital for eight years, and she only came to Yecheng this year. The two of them have never met before. How could they immediately make a marriage contract? Although the Yu family has a small reputation, it is only limited to Yanzhou, and its influence in the capital is not as good as that of our Song family. Why is Yu Wenjun so powerful that King Langya got married immediately?"

The dowry mother also waved, and everyone was puzzled by this. After the change of owner in Yecheng, there was a lot of turmoil, and someone wanted to send their daughter to curry favor with Murong Yan. Many people are ready to make a move, but before they can find a suitable name to raise this point, Murong Yan directly asks Qin Tian to monitor the auspicious day.

Princess Song is puzzled, but now is not the time to get to the bottom of it. For the current plan, save her father's life first and then talk about other things. The dowry nun softly persuaded Princess Song: "Princess, the protection of King Langya is watertight, how about we start with his concubine? The side concubine and Miss Yu Liu in our house are still sisters. The princess came forward to meet Miss Yu Liu I beg you, please say some flattering words, and when Miss Yu Liu is happy, the concubine will make indirect remarks about the Lord, maybe it will be fine."

Princess Song was silent for a long time, and suddenly she smiled wryly. On the day of the coup, she offered Yu Qingjia the side concubine as a favor on the Bronze Sparrow Terrace. After Yu Qingjia refused, she even mocked him for his ignorance. Who would have thought that in a blink of an eye, she would become Princess Song begging Yu Qingjia in a low voice.

This was only five or six days ago.

Princess Song feels uncomfortable, but the situation is stronger than others, how dare she offend the future Princess Langya? Concubine Song could only endure the embarrassment and said, "I ordered you to go down and set up the car early tomorrow morning, and I will go with this concubine to add makeup to Miss Yu Liu."

Seeing Princess Song answering, the dowry mother let out a long sigh of relief: "Yes."

The dowry mother was about to go out when there was a sudden noise in the silent night sky. Princess Song frowned in disgust and asked, "What's wrong?"

A maid hurriedly ran out to inquire, and after a while, she came back and said, "Princess Yu, it's Concubine Yu's yard that caused trouble."

Concubine Song was very disgusted, and sneered: "Why does she have the face to make trouble? The concubine's relatives are not serious in-laws, but when her mother came to the palace with a package, this concubine thought that after all, she gave birth to an heir for the county king. For the sake of it, I still held my nose and kept it. The married girl took her mother to her husband's house, and I was ashamed to death, and thanks to her thick skin, she had the nerve to make trouble under my mistress."

"But Concubine Yu said that she has a stomachache and needs to drink anti-fetal medicine..."

Princess Song showed a icy smile. Princess Song had long held a grudge against Yu Qingya who provoked her many times. Now that the queen is gone and King Guangping is dead, Princess Song wants to see who else Yu Qingya can rely on. Concubine Song didn't care, and said: "It's getting late now, the kitchen has been locked everywhere, let the side concubine wait a while, and wait until dawn tomorrow before taking the stove to boil medicine."

A pregnant woman suddenly suffers from abdominal pain and waits until dawn before taking the anti-fetal medicine? The maid didn't dare to say more, she lowered her head and replied, "Yes."

Concubine Song was vicious and happy in her heart. Earlier, when Yu Qingya stroked her belly, she did not know how many times she sneered in front of her. Although Princess Song was smiling, the anger and jealousy in her heart was accumulating day by day, and gradually turned into a poisonous needle. Princess Song wished that Yu Qingya's child would be "accidentally" lost, so how could she prepare an anti-fetal medicine for her?

Now Liu Liusu lived in Yu Qingya's courtyard, and Li Shi also lived there. Princess Song finds it ironic when she thinks about it. Liu Liusu is Li's cousin, later became Li's concubine, and now she is Yu Qingya's "sister". The relationship between these three people is complicated. I don't know that they live under the same roof. , Will it be embarrassing when you bump into each other accidentally?

Princess Song mocked Yu Qingya many times in her heart, but although she didn't like the behavior of this family, she still didn't dare to make a real move. This is not because she is concerned about the child in Yu Qingya's womb or the Yu family behind her, but because Princess Song is not sure what Yu Qingjia's attitude is.

Princess Song only knew that the relationship between the two sisters was not good, but she didn't dare to act rashly. After all, both of them were surnamed Yu. If Princess Song went too far and displeased Yu Qingjia, it would be over.

Concubine Song had many thoughts in her mind, she thought for a long time, and then sighed: "Forget it, we will know tomorrow what her attitude is."

It rained again yesterday, and the morning was deserted, and Yu Qingjia woke up later than usual. She unhurriedly dressed and dressed, and when everything was tidied up, Bai Rong brought fresh buttermilk and said, "My lady, Princess Song of Guangping is asking to see you, what do you think?"

Yu Qingjia was stunned for a moment: "Princess Guangping? Why is she here?"

"She said she heard that you were going to get married, and she was happy for the lady, so she came here to add make-up for the lady."

Yu Qingjia raised her eyebrows, with a half-smile: "My friendship with Concubine Song is not good enough to add makeup to each other, right? I'm afraid I have something to ask for." Yu Qingjia sighed helplessly when he said this: "Who is he? How many people have been dealt with, why are so many people coming to me to deliver messages?"

In just a few days, many people from Zaifu's family members, relatives of the emperor, down to the families of fifth and sixth rank officials came to her under various names. At first, Yu Qingjia met one or two people out of face, but later found that there were too many people, and they all had schemes, so Yu Qingjia excused that he was unwell, and stopped letting these people in.

Concubine Song herself felt that she was condescending, so it was not hard to see Yu Qingjia in person, but for Yu Qingjia, Concubine Song was neither the most honorable nor the most senior among the people who asked to see her these days, so it can be said to be ordinary . After all, what the Song family has, other families also have connections, and now there are not a few people who know that Yu Qingjia is Princess Langya.

Yu Qingjia was not interested, and said: "I appreciate Princess Song's kindness, but it's not convenient for me to meet people today, so please go back."

Bai Rong complied and took the order to leave. Yu Qingjia didn't take this matter to heart, and continued to do her own thing. After a while, she found that Bai Rong came back hesitantly.

Yu Qingjia was surprised and asked, "She refused to leave?"

"Yes." Bai Rong sighed, and said, "The maidservant told the lady what she said, but Princess Song heard that the lady was unwell today, so she insisted on seeing her face to face. The maidservant persuaded her for a long time, but Princess Song just thought she didn't understand, and now she still refuses." Standing outside the door against the wind, everyone who comes and goes can see it.”

Yu Qingjia's expression turned cold. Princess Song knew that she was not in good health, but still acted in public. It can be seen that she wanted to use this to force Yu Qingjia to agree. Mingming Princess Song is the one who asks for help, so it seems that Yu Qingjia will become a villain if she refuses to agree. Yu Qingjia's face was cold, she glanced outside, and said: "It's windy outside, and it rained last night. If Princess Song catches the cold after waiting for a long time, wouldn't it be my fault? Please come in, Princess Song." "

Bai Rong bowed in response, and she sighed softly when she went out. Concubine Song may have been praised by others for too long, and she has forgotten how to deal with people. Concubine Song's practice of kidnapping others with her own weakness is clearly offending people rather than begging for help.

Princess Song entered the door as she wished, and seeing Yu Qingjia's indifferent expression, she guessed that what she had done just now had displeased Yu Qingjia. Princess Song smiled wryly in her heart. Five or six days ago, she was the one who arranged Yu Qingjia's marriage arbitrarily. Who would have known that in the blink of an eye, their positions would be completely reversed. Now, it was Princess Song's turn to carefully apologize.

Princess Song knew that she had offended her, so she didn't dare to be careless, and she immediately saluted after seeing Yu Qingjia: "I heard from the concierge that Liu Niang was not feeling well today, so I should have resigned, but I am really worried about Liu Niang's health. I want to take a look for myself to feel at ease. Liu Niang won't blame me for disturbing, will she?"

Yu Qingjia asked the maid to stop Princess Song, and said nonchalantly: "Princess, wait, you are a first-rank princess, and I am just a white body, so I can't afford your gift."

Women's grades are all from their husbands or sons. Princess Song is now a princess of the first rank, and although Yu Qingjia is the daughter of a family, she has no rank. It is unprecedented for a high-ranking wife to take the initiative to salute a person without rank. Princess Song also felt embarrassed, she was older than Yu Qingjia, and her seniority was also higher than Yu Qingjia, but now she had to bow and kneel to a young girl, it was extremely embarrassing. The old woman with white hair didn't feel it when she saluted Princess Song, but now that the person in the lower place is replaced by herself, Princess Song knows what it's like.

Princess Song accompanied her with a smile, and although she stood up, her expression was still cautious: "Sixth lady, what are you talking about. Although you don't have a rank now, you will soon be registered as Princess Langya, and you will also be a famous first-rank princess by then. , why can’t you be someone else’s greeting? There will be many people who will greet you in the future. I used to think that I had a good relationship with Liu Niangzi, but now I’m of the same generation, it’s really wonderful to kiss and kiss.”

Yu Qingjia didn't respond at all, and said: "Princess, I'm sorry I can't respond. I don't know where the princess heard the news, but the matter of Concubine Ce is illusory, so it's better for Princess Song not to take it seriously. Bai Rong, Princess Song please sit down."

Princess Song had been standing on the ground until she heard Yu Qingjia's words, so she dared to sit beside her. After Princess Song sat down, she immediately said: "Liu Niangzi is modest. No one in the capital knows that Liu Niang is the sure-fire Princess Langya. Now it's just waiting for the official procedure of the Ministry of Rites. But since Liu Niang refuses to respond, we will also Don't dare to force it, I will congratulate Liu Niang again after the imperial decree comes down."

When Princess Song said this, she coveted Yu Qingjia's face from the corner of her eyes, and said carefully: "Liu Niang, I was wrong before. I mistakenly thought that you were not engaged, so I wanted to match you up. It's all my fault that I like Liu Niang so much. To find a good life for you, if Liu Niang had said that you knew King Langya, why would I say so?"

Yu Qingjia knew that what Princess Song was talking about was that at the celebration banquet earlier, Princess Song wanted to accept her as King Guangping's concubine, so as to contain Yu Qingya's affairs. If Yu Qingjia remembers correctly, after she refused that day, Princess Song was not very happy.

Who would have thought that shortly after the conversation ended, the empress died of poisoning in public, and Yecheng was besieged, followed by fierce street fighting outside the palace city, Murong Yan led the army into Beijing, and controlled the center of the court with a thunderous force. The first thing Murong Yan did after he escaped was to meet Yu Qingjia. Seeing Murong Yan's performance, the people in the capital didn't even dare to say harsh words to Yu Qingjia. On the other hand, Princess Song, King Guangping was defeated and died, the queen died, the emperor was imprisoned in disguise, and her father was also arrested and imprisoned. All her support collapsed overnight. Princess Song was trembling, embarrassed and afraid of what she had said , for fear of offending Yu Qingjia and causing Yu Qingjia to settle accounts later.

The more Princess Song spoke, the lower her voice was. Yu Qingjia's expression was as calm as before, and she didn't even move a single eyebrow. I am here to make an apology to Liu Niang. I hope you have a lot of people, Liu Niang, so don't take this matter to heart."

Yu Qingjia didn't make a statement, another voice suddenly came from outside the door: "What makes her not take it to heart?"

The blood on Princess Song's face faded away, she quickly stood up and looked at Yu Qingjia hastily, for fear that Yu Qingjia would tell what happened just now. The servants on both sides kneeled respectfully in a row and said in unison: "See Your Highness."

Murong Yan was still wearing court clothes, and the dark black wide-sleeved long gown outlined him as slim and tall. He wore a silver crown on his head, the Murong eaves were already high, but the hair crown raised his eyes, making him look more radiant and pure. When Murong Yan came, the people on both sides all knelt down, and he didn't show any kindness to the performance of the people around him, as if everything was taken for granted, he was born to stand in the most dazzling place.

When Princess Song first married into the royal family many years ago, she once took a look at Murong Yan from afar at the palace banquet. At that time the emperor was only Chang Shan Wang, and she followed Chang Shan Wang's team, and heard people say how honorable the prince and concubine of the East Palace were, and how the little county king in the East Palace was favored. Murong Yan has shown outstanding civil and military talent since he was a child, coupled with his good looks, he has always been the focus of everyone's attention. Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty had said many times that Murong Yan liked him the most, which shows how satisfied Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty was with this young grandson.

At that time, the power of the Changshan Palace could not be compared with that of the East Palace. Princess Song could only envy the princess when she heard it. While talking, she saw a young man walking far away in the crowd, she was really stunned, others quietly tugged on her sleeve, saying that this is King Langya.

Time seemed to overlap, Princess Song went back to six years ago in a trance, "His Royal Highness Prince Langya" was heard in her ears, that gorgeous young man walked away from the crowd, Princess Song couldn't tell what night it was for a moment. A gust of wind in front of her eyes brought Princess Song back to her senses. She slowly realized that this is not the reign of Zhang Wu, the East Palace has been destroyed, and that young man has grown up.

Although the eyebrows are still the same person, the feeling of the whole person is completely different. If he used to be like a finely crafted dagger studded with precious stones, now he is a sharp sword with a sharp edge and awe-inspiring aura.

Concubine Song became more and more nervous when she realized the purpose of her visit today. She followed the crowd and saluted, not daring to raise her eyes. Murong Yan went straight to Yu Qingjia, Yu Qingjia stood up and was about to salute, but Murong Yan supported him with one hand: "What are you doing, just sit at ease."

After he finished speaking, he seemed to see someone more in the room. Murong Yan glanced at Princess Song and asked, "Who is this?"

Princess Song was sweating on her forehead, she couldn't tell whether she was embarrassed or nervous. When Murong Yan left Beijing at the age of thirteen, she had just married into the Changshan Prince's Mansion. She was unremarkable among the many royal family members. She could only see the Crown Princess on important occasions. Of course, Murong Yan didn't recognize her. After the Donggong Incident, Murong Yan hibernated for five years and raided Miyagi. On the day of the palace change, the queen's death caused great panic, and Princess Song was also terrified. She followed the guards and ran out of the palace in the chaos. Later, I heard that the Tongque Terrace was besieged, Yin Yikun was executed, and the emperor was chopped and injured in the chaos. , Unable to govern, entrusted all affairs of the court to his nephew King Langya. The whole coup was thrilling and bloody. Of course, Murong Yan, the ruler, had no time to meet the widow of a deceased cousin. Therefore, Murong Yan would ask Princess Song only after seeing Princess Song.

The waiters on both sides responded in a low voice: "This is Princess Song of Guangping."

Concubine Song hurriedly answered: "The concubine sees His Royal Highness Langya King. Your Highness may not have any impression of my concubine. My father led the army in the mansion and Song Kuang, and I have admired His Highness for a long time. When Prince Chengde was there, my father and the prince had close contacts. pity…"

Yu Qingjia's eyebrows moved slightly, and there was a hint of amusement in her eyes. Princess Song, as the princess of Guangping, did not mention her status as the most important princess when she introduced herself. relation. The charm of power is indeed great, and Princess Song's tone has changed really quickly.

Murong Yan obviously felt bored too. He heard from the plainclothes guards outside the mansion that someone came to see Yu Qingjia this morning, and he waited outside Yu Qingjia's gate for a long time. After receiving the news, Murong Yan immediately left the palace. Unexpectedly, this bold and reckless person actually She is Murong Zhen's main wife.

Concubine Song paused for a moment, then skipped the fact that the East Palace was destroyed, and continued: "Fortunately, His Highness is back. Now that the treacherous ministers have been punished, the government has been cleared up. I heard that someone has complained for Prince Chengde and advocated a re-examination. In the case of the East Palace, my father often said that Prince Chengde was a rare benevolent monarch. How could such a benevolent person do rebellious things? There is also the Crown Princess, the concubine was honored to visit the Crown Princess during the palace banquet Several times, the Crown Princess is a very dignified and decent person..."

Murong Yan had been waiting for Song Wangfei to take the initiative to resign, but found that she was unconscious, and even talked about ancient times with the cheek. Murong Yan couldn't bear it anymore, he didn't save Princess Song any face at all, and directly raised his hand to interrupt her: "What's the matter with you?"

Concubine Song choked back when she had prepared a lot of words, her face turned red and white: "Concubine, concubine admires Prince Chengde..."

Murong Yan looked indifferent, and signaled the attendants on both sides with his eyes: "Send her out."

Concubine Song was completely panicked, she could no longer care about her face, she knelt down on the ground, and said deeply, "Please forgive me, Your Highness Prince Langya, and spare my father's life. I know how much my husband and the emperor can't help His Highness, but now The husband has been killed by His Highness himself, and His Majesty is also seriously ill and unable to manage the government. If His Highness is angry, you can turn it on your concubine. However, my father has served the court for many years and has never done anything to offend Your Highness. Please, His Royal Highness King Langya, hold your hands high and let my father out!"

Murong Yan has no impression of Princess Song, but knows her father Song Kuang well. Song Kuang was in charge of the leading army mansion, guarding the palace, and fought against Murong Yan's people that day, so of course such people cannot be dealt with casually. After Murong Yan captured the palace city, he was busy dealing with the emperor, controlling the court, and purging the internal traitors in the palace. He never had time to deal with the defeated generals of the day. Today, when Princess Song cried, he remembered that these people seemed to be still in prison .

Murong Yan put all these people in jail to prevent trouble, he didn't intend to kill them all. Governing a country is a very complicated matter, which cannot be solved by killing people with temper. Murong Yan admits that he is small-minded, but he is not so worthless that he will implicate the debt of Murong Zhen and his son on Song Kuang.

It's a pity that Princess Song didn't know what Murong Yan was thinking in her heart. Seeing that Murong Yan was still looking cold and unmoved, she became more and more panicked. Her hair was in a high bun, and after all this tossing, the chignon was scratched, and her sideburns were also messed up, making her look in a mess. Murong Yan was unhurried, and suddenly turned to ask Yu Qingjia: "Jiajia, what do you think?"

Everyone in the room was stunned for a moment, but fortunately Yu Qingjia was used to seeing Murong Yan go crazy, so he just paused and then recovered: "What do you mean by that?"

"It's nothing interesting." Murong Yan's tone was flat, as if he was talking about something very ordinary, "You said you didn't want to see people, but she took advantage of her reputation of being weak and sick, deliberately took people out of the car and stood guard at the door, forcing you Open the door. I don't have any opinion on Song Kuang, but Song Kuang's daughter offended you. As long as you don't want to, I will order people to execute Song Kuang's family to see if anyone else dares to make you unhappy."
