Gu Shao’s proposal to recall the two kings of Su Xiang quickly caused a furor up and down the imperial capital!
Although the prime minister said nice words, what called back the second king is to share the worries of Emperor Duanhua, what brothers should see each other often to ease each other’s thoughts, what for the Grand Princess of Jin’s long time the phoenix body is not safe to consider but who does not know, the second king this time back, even if he did not die on the way to the “bandits”, after arriving at the imperial capital, he will be heavily shackled, life and death are at the mercy of Emperor Duanhua! “But who doesn’t know that even if the second king doesn’t die from the bandits on the way back, after arriving at the imperial capital, he will be heavily shackled, and his life and death will be at the whim of the Duanhua Emperor!
Mrs. Shouchun urgently invited Princess Qingjiang to the Grand Princess of Jin’s residence, “The Su family sent someone to ask for an audience with Mother, and the Marquis of Fuyang came in person, so Jiaoyo and I just couldn’t stop her!”
Su family came to people okay, in the end, just a subordinate, really can not persuade away, simply throw him to the flower hall, he did not dare to break in.
But Fuyang Marquis Ji Zifu is difficult to get, he is in the end the biological son of the Grand Princess of Dai Guo, the first nephew of the Grand Princess of Jin Mrs. Shouchun Bo and Jia Yao spoke with him, the Grand Princess of Jin is not good health now, it is not suitable to meet the guests, he knelt directly outside the door of the courtyard!
Letting Mrs. Shouchun Bo and Jia Yao repeatedly persuade her, Ji Zifu ignored them, with the air of having to see the Grand Princess of Jin!
Seeing this situation, Mrs. Shouchun Bo could only look to her great aunt for help: ”Mother’s current condition is not suitable for stimulation. But with cousin Ji in that state, I really don’t know what to do! I’m still begging big sister for an idea!”
County Princess Qingjiang listened to her story and also felt a headache: ”Calling the two kings of Su Xiang back to the imperial capital came from Minister Gu’s suggestion, but it must be His Majesty’s intention as well! This is a matter of great importance, even if Mother is His Majesty’s own aunt, she may not be able to say anything. If they don’t want the Second King of Su Xiang to come back, they can just go and talk to His Majesty themselves, why do they have to push Mother to the front every time?”
In the middle of talking, they had already walked to the door of the courtyard where the Grand Princess of Jin resided, and they saw Ji Zifu in hemp clothes and plain clothes, kneeling on the brick floor in front of the door with no expression on her face.
“Zifu, what are you doing?” Princess Qingjiang quickened her pace and walked over, tugging at him as she said, “What is there to say that you can’t say properly, but you have to put on this look? Get up and go with me to the flower hall over there to talk!”
“Cousin Qing Jiang, why do you have to sympathize here?” Ji Zifu shook off her hand and said with a cold smile, “Princess Xiang is my sister, but she is only a cousin to you, so it’s fine if you don’t care for her, but Princess Su and you were raised by the same mother, right? You will still have the heart to coax me, I really don’t know what Auntie Jin will feel when she finds out.”
Princess Qingjiang was already very unhappy that he was forcing the palace in such a way, and smiled back in anger at his words: ”Since you’ve put it this far, I’ll show you the cards: the Imperial Doctor himself said that Mother can’t be stimulated at all! Even if Dancing Cherry was here, with her character, she would definitely favor not alerting Mother! If it wasn’t your Aunt Jin who was lying inside, but your own mother, would you agree to someone disturbing her at this time?”
Ji Zifu said coldly, ”I wish my mother would be lying inside! It’s a pity that I’m not blessed enough to have such a luxury! But if you want to drive me away like you drove away AHu last time, you’re dreaming! If you are able, you will have me sent out, or else you will not speak such highsounding words! In the end, I’m afraid you and Mr. and Mrs. Shouchun all want Princess Su to die, don’t you? How could they miss such a rare opportunity?”
“Don’t you stop talking about Mai Sakura!” County Princess Qing Jiang was so angry with him that she was shivering, “Do you think I don’t see your scheme? Are you just trying to provoke us to make way for you? This is impossible, if you want to hate me then hate me, anyway, whatever you say or make a fuss about, don’t even think about disturbing Mother!”
As their cousins here became more and more deadlocked, in Marquis Yan’s mansion, Song Yixiao was also frowning and deep in thought, “Who is this that has screwed His Majesty back again?”
Originally, she had already succeeded in making her husband dissatisfied with Emperor Duanhua, and because she found out that she was pregnant, Jian Xubai, while rejoicing, then heard his wife’s brows knit gently as she said, “I don’t know if I’m fortunate enough to see this child fall into the ground,” “If I can’t continue to accompany you in the future, you should at least think of it as a matter of friendship, don’t ask Chaoping to follow the same path as when I was a child. If I can’t stay with you in the future, please don’t ask Chaoping to follow the same path as I did when I was a child, for the sake of the love we share.
Although Jian Xu Bai knows that his wife is intentional, but the Duan Hua Emperor has no goodwill towards Song Yixiao, Song Yixiao after pregnancy sensitive thinking, so it is not unreasonable to worry about one day or two days he listened to it, even if, listen to it more how can not be taken to heart?
As a result, the Duanhua Emperor suddenly rewarded and promised to restore the couple’s former status, but Jian Xubai had a reason to comfort his wife, “I told you that His Majesty and I have been friends since we were children, and before that, he must have been in a hurry to catch up with his frequent blows, so he refused to forgive him lightly! Now that the anger has passed, not to take the initiative to ease the relationship through your happy? So how can it be unfavorable to you and the child?”
Song Yixiao was overjoyed on her face but in her heart, she was too annoyed to say anything!
She didn’t believe that Emperor Duanhua had restored his favor to Marquis Yan after being angry!
Ten percent is that the emperor has not completely fainted, there are people around him to wake up not to mention that, even if the emperor is his own wake up, this world is unpredictable, in case he one day again on fire to think of the commoner Cui see the poor thing?
Gu Shao could persuade the Emperor to come around once, twice or thrice, could he save the day in time every time?
In addition, Gu Shao also do not know how to think, this time in order to give Song Yixiao exoneration, Lu Guanlun confessed out, even involved Yuan Xue Pei, Song Yixiao is not very concerned about, but Lu Guanlun and Yuan Xue Calyx couples, she can not help but care about it!
How do you think, if this emperor continues to reign, Song Yixiao feels unsafe!
“The emperor just rewarded me for being pregnant and made a promise, and to say that he suspects that he will be unfavorable to me at this time is too obvious a purpose for provocation. Even if Husband won’t reprimand me for this, I’m afraid that in my heart, he will still be unimpressed!” She thought in her heart, “Good thing that the emperor will intend to recall the two kings of Su Xiang, I can borrow the banner of Dancing Sakura and do some maneuvering!”
That night, after the couple finished their work for the day and returned to the inner room, Song Yixiao asked her husband worriedly, “I heard that His Majesty authorized Minister Gu to propose to call the two kings of Su Xiang back to the capital, I wonder if this is true or not?”
Jian Xu Bai comforted, “Minister Gu doesn’t mean anything else, he’s just afraid that these two princes will be compelled by someone with a heart of gold if they’re away for a long time!”
Adding, “Not to mention the fact that this way you’ll be able to see your fifth sister more often, haven’t you always missed her?”
“I think I miss her so much!” Song Yixiao leaned her head on his shoulder, as if she was pampering him, she couldn’t hide her anxiety in her tone, “But no matter how much I miss her, I want her to be safe and sound more than anything else! His Majesty’s relationship with the King of Su is not unknown to you, last year you and Chao Ping out of the flowers that will be, but the Duke of Liang mentioned, His Majesty would like to put this matter logically on the head of the two kings of Su Xiang! I can see that His Majesty has long had the intention of eradicating the two kings of Su Xiang! If you call them back now, is it because you have good intentions?”
She sighed, “Honestly speaking I have not seen a few times with the king of Su, this royal thing, of course, I am not qualified to comment on. But the five sister … although she is only my sisterinlaw, since I entered the door, to her after the cabinet with her husband far away, but has always been with me to and from, in my mind, with my own sister is no different! If she is affected by the Su Wang’s involvement, this … I really do not dare to think you know the fifth sister has always been naive no city people, such a change of heart how she can stand it?”
Jian Xubai sighed at the words, “Our family has just been scolded by the decree, even if now because you are happy, His Majesty has given a step down, but also really not suitable to go forward to speak. The good thing is that this matter because the royal grandmother is firmly opposed, and the renegotiation of the matter of the Duke of Liang is still in progress, has not yet been formally implemented, there is still room for maneuver! In the end, perhaps His Majesty will change his mind again? Why do you worry about it now?”
Song Yixiao thought to herself, “I wanted you to say that, and sighed: ”That’s true! I’d forgotten that His Majesty changes his mind from time to time! I hope that he will always change his mind in the direction we want him to go!”
Speaking here, without waiting for Jian Xubai to answer, she covered her mouth and snickered, “I say this as if I want to sway the holy will!”
Jian Xu Bai heard something in his wife’s words: since Emperor Duanhua was a fickle person, who could guarantee that every time he changed, it happened to be beneficial to Marquis Yan?
Such an emperor is the most frightening, because you simply can not guess whether he is happy or angry at the next moment, truly accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger.
“At tomorrow’s court meeting, it is estimated that the disposition of Duke Liang and Xue Pei will be implemented.” He let out a long sigh in his heart, in fact, there was no need for Song Yixiao to provoke, why didn’t he feel that Emperor Duanhua had changed greatly recently?
The familiar cousin of the emperor in the past, this will actually reveal a clear detachment and strangeness.
However, over the years of friendship, first cousins bloodline, in the end, not to say that can be broken, Jian Xubai for the future with the end of the emperor to get along with the wariness, but still can not do betrayal of his things, can only cite a variety of examples, coaxing his wife.
This wife did not explicitly say, he is not good to refute, only to change the topic, “I have two days with colleagues through the gas, all feel that we can not tell him to easily pass!”
Song Yixiao heard his evasiveness, but it wasn’t a bad thing, because if Jian Xu Bai really had no problem with Emperor Duanhua, although he wouldn’t go so far as to say that he reprimanded his wife for it, he would at least defend Emperor Duanhua a few times.
Now he just change the topic, obviously in Jian Xubai’s heart, also feel that his wife’s hint is not unreasonable, but out of past love, just do not want to continue this topic.
From a position unseen by her husband, the corners of her mouth silently tickled as she softly said, “Then go to bed early!”
The following day’s courtroom was intense.
The reason was simple, despite Emperor Duanhua’s clear statement last time that the Duke of Liang should be dealt with lightly, most of the courtiers, however, believed that the Duke of Liang should at least be abolished as a commoner!
In fact, this is also the Duanhua Emperor asked for it, he first tried to bypass the group of ministers, directly dispose of the Duke of Liang, followed by easy to let the step, can not help but make the ministers feel that the emperor is too rash in doing things, lack of the firmness that a bright ruler should have.
So in order to make a deep impression on Emperor Duanhua, everyone decided unspokenly to heavily punish the Duke of Liangotherwise wouldn’t Emperor Duanhua feel that although he was doing things out of order, as long as he conceded a little bit, in the end, the ministers would still do it according to their own wishes, and take the rules less and less seriously?
The Duanhua Emperor wants to deal with the Duke of Liang lightly, but in order to keep him to restrain the Empress and the Wei family, which in his opinion is related to the stability of his throne, naturally refused to give in.
The monarchs and ministers can not talk, Gu Shao is not good to take a position, the Golden Palace of the war of words, the situation can be imagined!
Finally or He Wenqiong came out to round the scene, proposed that everyone take a step back, will Liang Guo Gong relegated to Liang Bo, confiscated all the properties taken from the Jiangnan Hall, from now on house arrest in the house, no imperial decree shall not go out!
However, Emperor Duanhua is still not satisfied with the result, originally Liang Guo Gong’s power is not a rival of the Empress and the Wei family, and then dispose of it like this, where can he still play any role in controlling? What is the point of keeping this brother? It would be better to kill him to get rid of his anger!
So at the end of the day, the pilgrimage still ended unhappily, and the result was not finalized after all.
Duanhua emperor sullen face back to the bedchamber, some freshen up, change into regular clothes, according to the usual habit, he is going to change the zhangzuo, but today the mood is really too bad, can’t help but get up the burnout of the mind after a little contemplation, then asked Zhu Qin, “I heard that the newcomer has entered the palace, I have not asked, is a What is the situation?”
