“The matter is actually quite simple!” King Liang knew the pressure that Emperor Duanhua was now facing, so after saluting, he said bluntly and without further ado, “The Yi Wangfu has been living in deep seclusion and keeping a low voice everywhere for decades, which was originally a prudent move on the part of King Yi Jing’s uncle, but in the eyes of Cousin Ningyue, it was the Yi Wangfu’s inferiority – and she also She boasts that she is the bloodline of Emperor Taizu, and that she was born to be proud of the people, so naturally she is not convinced!”
“And after Imperial Grandmother chose Su Shaoge as her son-in-law, she became more and more disgruntled due to the fact that the Su family had supported King Su’s bid for the crown but failed!”
“Originally, although she was full of resentment, a county princess in the district could not do much!”
“But we also have a younger sister, Yushan, and you know that Yushan still can’t get enough of Su Shaoge — so, cousin Ngingyi doesn’t want Su Shaoge, but Yushan wants Su Shaoge all the time!”
“So some time ago when Cousin Ningyue came out of mourning, and started to enter the palace from time to time to pay respects to Imperial Grandmother under the mention of Imperial Concubine Yi, Yushan took the opportunity to negotiate with her on the matter!”
“The result of the negotiations between the two sisters is that Cousin Ningyi will follow the arrangements of Jade Mountain to scheme against the daughter of A-Hu, and after this is accomplished, Jade Mountain will try to break the marriage contract with Su Shaoge for her, and then give her a marriage she is satisfied with!”
Emperor Duanhua frowned and couldn’t help but laugh out coldly when he heard this, “Her marriage to Su Shaoge was set by the Imperial Grandmother, I wouldn’t even dare to make a presumptuous statement, but Yushan was able to do it for her? It’s simply whimsical!”
Another doubt, “Jade Mountain but why would she want to count the daughter of A Xu? I remember that she doesn’t seem to have any grudges against A Xu’s family, right?”
“This courtier brother also asked, condensed night cousin said she also do not know – although she is the county princess, but the emperor brother also know, has been raised in the Yi Wang Fu, living in deep simplicity, and outsiders are not much to deal with, can understand what? Look at the jade mountain is living a bright and favored, thought the jade mountain can really help her choose another husband, so the jade mountain palace maid how to say how she did.”
King Liang said, “So I got a message from cousin Qingjiang: when sister Song only passed away, didn’t she accompany cousin Nie to live in the Spring Pavilion with cousin Qingjiang for a few days? At that time, Su Shaoge was about to participate in the spring exams, smacked the imperial capital too noisy, so also went to Jim Chun Hall requesting to stay.”
“As a result, that year’s Zhanshun Hall was exceptionally lively, Su Shaoge accompanied by King Su arrived shortly after the imperial aunt of the Dai Guo also led her children and son-in-laws to rush there to spend their time, and arriving on the same day, there was also Yushan as well as Mrs. Marquis of Boling!”
He paused, “Originally, Cousin Qingjiang thought it was a coincidence, because she was afraid that Mrs. Marquis Boling would be embarrassed if she ran into Imperial Aunt Daikoku’s family, so she asked Sister Song to go specifically to greet Yushan and Mrs. Marquis Boling – but it turned out that after arranging a good place for them to stay, Sister Song went back to resume with Cousin Qingjiang and quietly told Cousin But when she went back to report to Cousin Qingjiang, she quietly told her that Yushan had gone to the Spring Pavilion purely for the sake of Su Shaoge!”
Emperor Duanhua mused, ”Are you saying that Yushan hated Cousin Song from this? But even if cousin Song hadn’t tipped her off, she had openly gone to father and grandmother, so how could she have kept it hidden? So why would she hate Cousin Song?”
“This is something that I can only dare to say in front of you, in addition, whether it is from A Xu, or the Imperial Grandmother, or the Imperial Aunt of the Kingdom of Jin, I do not dare to disclose the slightest bit of it!” King Liang revealed a solemn color, although the two brothers in the side hall at the moment, he still lowered his voice, came forward a few steps, before whispering, “According to my younger brother asked from the sidelines, that year in the Zhanshun Hall, Su Shaoge discerned the heart of Yushan, has always avoided her; on the contrary, to the younger sister of brother Song … very respectful! Later, when cousin Nie had a sudden attack of wind chill, the only Imperial Doctor Han in the pavilion broke his leg while rushing to the clinic, and disciple sister Song had to ask for help from Su Shaoge, who lived nearby, and Su Shaoge could be said to be responsive to disciple sister Song’s needs, and to come at her beck and call.”
Adding, “Even when A Xu received the news and rushed over, it was Su Shaoge who helped deliver the letter!”
“This is not something to be said!” Duanhua emperor can’t help but change his face, “Song younger sister I have seen, look very dignified and stable, the queen also said that she is a good, how could she do such a thing to! What’s more, other people are interested in Su Shaoge also just, A Xu posture and demeanor is by no means below Su Shaoge, and have the Duke of the country in the body, but also treat her like a treasure, what she has to do to have other ideas?!”
Even if the Song Yi smile has a once abandoned the woman remarried mother, but one of the Duan Hua Emperor think Su Shao song on the family on the rich on the posture can not compare to their cousin Jane virtual white; two, Wei Mengying remarried, who do not know the eye mainly because she could not give birth to a son, the face of Mrs. Pang pressure can not afford to eat, and this chose to walk away?
Song Yixiao’s marriage is perfect, and her mother-in-law is kind and protective – how can she possibly go out for someone who is inferior to her husband in every way, when she can’t even beg or even dare to think about this kind of good life?
King Liang was busy saying, “Imperial brother you have misunderstood! I’m not saying that Sister Song is not a womanizer, but I suspect Su Shaoge!”
“Su Shaoge is not expected to be such a person!” Emperor Duanhua shook his head and said, “You see, Yu Shan is still devoted to him, even if he is not the first son of the Su family, what kind of beauty does he want? Although Sister Song has an outstanding appearance, she is not considered to be the most beautiful woman, and she is still a married woman, why would Su Shaoge have any thoughts about Sister Song? Although I don’t trust the Su family, I still have a good idea of the Su family’s family education – Fufeng Hall can’t afford to lose face like this!”
When Emperor Duanhua was the Crown Prince, the biggest threat to him was his first brother, and the Su family was his first brother’s foreign family, so how could he not be concerned?
Su Shaoge was also the most outstanding son of the Su family at the moment, and even if Emperor Duanhua was no longer good at hooking up, he would still focus on getting to know this second son of Su.
So this will hear the King of Liang said that the Princess of Yushan suspected that Su Shaoge had ambiguity with Song Yixiao, Duanhua Emperor did not believe it at all!
“My brother originally did not believe!” However, King Liang said, “Just a few days ago, Duke Jiguo passed away, Duke Jiguo’s residence demobilized a lot of subordinates, my younger brother sent someone to ask from one of them, when my younger brother’s original fiancée, that is, the Sikong family’s eldest miss before she died of illness, is not knocking on the road to ask for help in Su Shaoge’s residence?”
“At that time, traveling with Eldest Miss Sikong, there were Sister Song, as well as Imperial Sister-in-law’s maiden sister, Lady Wei.”
“Mrs. Wei was scared out of her wits at that meeting, so after borrowing Su Shaoge’s aliyah, the one who presided over the situation was younger sister Song.”
“In the middle due to the delay of the doctor, sister Song had left Mrs. Wei to take care of Miss Sikong, she went out to find out the news – after coming back, there was a jade hairpin missing from her sideburns, and the subordinates in the house of Su Shaoge had seen the housekeeper personally take a broom and dustpan and swept the back porch, and took it out and poured it into the river. ”
“A few days after that, Su Shaoge ordered someone to go to a store and choose a superb jadeite hairpin, and under the pretense of compensating on behalf of the servant who had bumped into Song’s younger sibling, he carefully wrapped the hairpin and sent it to the Duke of Yan’s residence!”
“Of course, it is rumored that Sister Song then rewarded her subordinate with that hairpin!”
Liang Wang stole a glance at Duanhua Emperor’s increasingly dark face, whispered, “So my younger brother thought, Song younger sister to Su Shaoge is certainly not much heart. But Su Shaoge to Song younger sister … even if the hair is out of love and stops, however, if Yushan knows about this passage, she has always been not very understanding, may not be jealous of Song younger sister?”
If Emperor Duanhua didn’t believe that Su Shaoge and Song Yixiao would have a personal relationship, it was because of his knowledge and impression of the two; then at this moment, hearing the words of King Liang, he also suspected the Elder Princess of Jade Mountain. If Emperor Duanhua didn’t believe that Su Shaoge and Song Yixiao would have an affair, it was because of his understanding and impression of both; then at this moment, after hearing the words of King Liang, he also suspected Elder Princess Yushan, also out of his understanding and impression of Elder Princess Yushan.
–In Emperor Duanhua’s opinion, this sister of the Eldest Princess of Jade Mountain was a carbon copy of the aunt he detested, the Great Eldest Princess of the Dai Guo.
capricious, unruly, presumptuous, and unfilial.
The temperament is also paranoid, and if you love it, you want to live; if you hate it, you want to die.
That is, he is still young and his mind is only focused on chasing men for the time being, so there are no hints of interfering in dynastic affairs yet.
But it’s hard to tell when she drops and then grows up a bit!
Therefore, if King Liang implied that Princess Yushan might have heard about Su Shaoge’s interactions with Song YiXiao and suspected that the two had something, thus instructing Lu Ningyi to poison Song YiXiao’s daughter – thereby plotting to kill Song YiXiao’s entire family to get rid of her anger, Emperor Duanhua felt that it was not unlikely!
He was pondering, but heard King Liang seem to have just thought of the same, said, “There is one more thing: Jade Mountain around the courtesan confessed, that year in Zhanshun Hall, Su Shaoge just to Nie cousin diagnosis is finished, because of the hall has herbs in the place is far away, Su Shaoge decided to bring his own with herbs first take part of the use of cousin Nie – Song So she sent him out the door and asked her maid to accompany him to get the medicine. As a result, he was seen by Yushan when he crossed the atrium, and Yushan went up and twisted Sibling Song on the spot to question what their relationship was!”
“It’s even suspected that Su Shaoge spent the night in Sister Song and Cousin Nie’s room-at the time, Sister Song was very angry and had quite an argument with Yushan!”
“If it wasn’t for the fact that Mrs. Boling Hou arrived shortly afterward to round out the scene, Jade Mountain’s courtesan said that Jade Mountain was quite a bit unforgiving at the time!”
These words completely solidified the suspicion of Rapunzel Jade Mountain!
Emperor Duanhua was so angry that his face turned blue and he slapped the case fiercely, “Shameless bitch . People!!!”
He will scold of course is Yushan eldest princess – originally Duanhua emperor because since young since not less in the generation of the country’s eldest princess at the hands of the cause of aggression, for arrogant and domineering women is very dislike.
But he has two aunts and two sisters, and none of them can be related to the gentle and virtuous!
This was the reason why he clearly had few heirs, but had no intention of doting on his daughters.
The Emperor is really fed up with all these Golden Boughs of this dynasty!
But like the Jade Mountain Princess so repeatedly provoked his patience, but also so a – Jade Mountain Princess knows Su Shaoge has a marriage contract, the marriage contract is still her first grandmother Empress Dowager set down, but still do not care about so far to play with Su Shaoge double. The idea of flying with Su Shaoge is not a big deal.
She went so far as to drink flying vinegar onto Song Yixiao’s head!
The Duanhua Emperor is not defending Song Yixiao, he can’t stand to see his grown-up cousin Jian Xubai being wronged – who doesn’t know that Jian Xubai favors his wife?
Think about it, once the truth gets out, how many people outside know about Su Shaoge and Song Yixiao? If they don’t, then they can’t trust them, so even if they try to dispel the rumors that they are innocent, how can they stop people from chewing on them in private?
Besides, to put it mildly, people love to hear stories of sex in high class families. The colorful stories of the high and mighty!
At that time, public opinion would inevitably ridicule Jane for being a cuckold in vain!
Jian Xu Bai was both Emperor Duan Hua’s cousin and his direct line, how could Emperor Duan Hua not defend him?
In contrast, although Jade Mountain is a sister, neither the same mother, temperament is not pleasing to him, but also frequent trouble, this time it is even involved in their own son are moved out of the palace, life and death is hard to predict – Duanhua Emperor now personally strangled Jade Mountain Rapunzel’s heart are there!
“Imperial brother please calm your anger!” Liang Wang saw the emperor moved the real fire, busy persuade, “Originally my younger brother to find out the truth, will report to you. Just two days ago, Aunt Yi requested to meet with Cousin Ningyi, and afterward, she said something to my younger brother, and my younger brother felt that it wasn’t unreasonable, so he investigated and verified it again – which is why he dragged it out until this moment to report it to you!”
Emperor Duanhua’s face was like a pot as he squeezed his voice out from between his teeth, “Speak!”
“Auntie Yi said that Cousin Ningyue had been cowardly since she was a child, and that the reason why she acted so heartlessly this time was because she had been coerced by Yushan, and that she had no choice but to act out of cowardice! It was also because she was sad about Uncle Yi’s death that she had neglected Cousin Ningyi over the past two years, resulting in Cousin Ningyi’s missteps to such an extent that no one in the entire household knew about it, which is a shame to be a mother, a shame to be a brother and a sister-in-law!”
King Liang’s words only fell, Duanhua Emperor has disdainfully grunted, “But is afraid of Yi Wangfu is involved in – early to know that today, in the first place, why do not do not properly discipline!!!!!!!!”
The emperor believes that the Yi Wangfu others, at least Yi Taifei and Yi Wang is uninformed, after all, this time the thing has let Cuihua Mountain up and down the household, everyone is at risk, even the prince are involved, originally Yi Wangfu is not very pleased, but also such a violation of the anger of the masses, is it all the family do not want to live?
If we put aside the usual, the Emperor wants to dispose of the Yi Wangfu, there may still be people who would advise the Emperor to be friendly and lenient – now?
Now I guess the emperor wants to spare them, the whole court will not agree!
The problem is, now the subordinates do not count, the emperor’s cousin family, the youngest son are all infected with smallpox, the next there will be other people will continue to come out of the flower, it is not easy to say, told him to dispose of the culprits, not involved in the side, how can it be possible?
Things do not turn to their own head do not feel heartache, when Wei Mengying assassination, the Duanhua Emperor sent the Empress to persuade Song Yixiao to calm things down, but also feel that Lu’s mother and son in the end innocent, very should not be dragged by the uncompetitive mother-in-law.
But now the ones in trouble are the ones the Emperor values, and the ones in trouble are the ones the Emperor doesn’t have much affection for, and even doesn’t like – Emperor Duanhua immediately felt that even if the people of the Yi Wangfu didn’t know what was going on, failing to teach Yi Wang’s little county princess well was their fault!
“What imperial brother said is very true.” King Liang weighed his words and said, “However, Aunt Yi also said that whether it’s Yushan or Cousin Ningyi, they’re both the ones we’ve watched grow up – even if the two cousins are ruthless enough, neither of them is a person with a deep city, so they alone may not be able to think of such a ploy! ”
After a pause, “Auntie Yi thinks, right now Cuihua Mountain is already a piece of military chaos, if not for the imperial brother before the order of the forbidden army surrounded the mountain, not allowing people to escape without authorization, lest the smallpox to bring to other places, resulting in a big disaster, at this moment many people are estimated to have run far away! And this situation, perhaps, is the purpose of some people!”
As he said this, he looked meaningfully to the north and then to the south – the vassal lands of the two kings of Su Xiang were both in the north, while the ancestry of the Su family was in the south, and the family of the Grand Princess of Dai Guo, in exile, was also in the south!
Emperor Duanhua chewed on these words and gradually changed his face!
