After rebirth, I made the princes cry
Chapter 190 Choosing between loved ones
Nanci let go of his hand, because Zhongchangshi was so anxious, but he saluted him and said, "Your Highness, please stay for now." Nanci vaguely thought of what had happened, and he didn't know why, but his chest suddenly felt like a broken I dug a hole and was blown into the bleak autumn wind. The autumn wind is actually not cold in the human world, but when it passes through the flesh and blood, it is actually heart-piercingly cold.
"Fifth brother." Yuehu only patted him on the shoulder: "I am different from fifth brother. I don't have so much love between children in my life. I think my happiness is probably seeing many people like Wu in the world. People like me hope that their children will love each other and that they can work together with a good partner. But there is one sentence that is also my true words. In the field of power, what matters is not love, but choice."
"The word "choice" is simple to say, but it means nothing more than a heart of stone."
"No." Yuehu looked at the back of Zhong Changshi: "There are friendships in the heart, and there are choices in life. Fifth brother may think that my words are inconsistent, but in fact they are not. Like you, you will face choices immediately, and I, I already have the awareness of trade-offs, so I haven’t encountered trade-offs yet.”
"Fourth brother knows what is going to happen?"
"Obviously, if I don't even have this bit of planning, why can I not be affected by my mother's clan?"
When Yuehu looked away, she met Nanji's eyes. One pair of eyes was like a calm sea, and the other was like a turbulent undercurrent. There was a fleet of geese passing by in the sky. They would never stay in the splendor of all the palaces and gardens in the world. They also seem to never be affected by the flames of war. No matter whether there is a great war or peace in the world, they are just passing through. The place they arrive is always a livable place, and they can always find their own mountains, rivers and lakes. ocean.
If a person has no wings, will he always be restrained?
Yuehu left Qianyang Palace, but he was in a heavy mood. He suddenly wanted to see his mother-in-law.
Wangchuan Pavilion has been neglected by the emperor for a long time, but it is still the most humane pavilion in the entire inner court. The maids are busy drying and storing osmanthus, but the osmanthus wine brewed a few years ago was opened by Jian Bin. When she saw the moon fox coming, Jian Bin took out a spoonful and poured it into the wine glass. The color of the wine was like amber, and the aroma did not need to be tasted. It was enough for the eyes.
"The incident in Pingyi Bofu should have already happened."
Hearing this, Concubine Jian glared at Yuehu: "I really shouldn't have given you this wine. You disturbed my peace as soon as I came here."
But Jian Bin still felt sorry for her son. She took out a plate of freshly made fish sauce from the bottle, and went to cook a bowl of hot soup cakes herself. When Yuehu finished it, she sighed: "It's boiling outside. For a while, I thought that this matter was about to reach the palace, but it was actually not a bad thing. It was just Wulang who was pitiful. He was a child who values friendship. Your Majesty should ask him for his opinion on this matter. He has to choose between his mother-in-law and his uncle. Alas, Yuehu, I know you can't bear the suffering of your brothers and sisters, so just drink a few more drinks."
"I remember when I was in my enlightenment years, my concubine asked me if I should fight or not."
Jian Bin was stunned for a moment: "Do you still remember?"
"Remember, I told my mother-in-law at that time that I wanted to strive for a stable society and peace for my family and country."
"At that time, you did not say that the world was at peace, but only called the country." Jian Bin smiled: "So I don't think you are childish, but I was also very scared at the time. I seemed to have given birth to an extraordinary child. In fact, At that time, I was not without a will to fight, because I knew that now that I had you, it was not up to me to decide whether to fight or retreat.
The queen is not a tolerant person, and you are destined not to be a mediocre child. You don’t have to fight, but you also have to protect yourself, advance or retreat, take or leave. I can’t decide for you, because I know that both paths are It's just as difficult, no matter which one you choose, you're always surrounded by dangers.
Yuehu, you have always been calm and decisive, but I still feel uneasy. No matter how you choose, I can't feel at ease. I can only suppress my uneasiness and believe you. You are young, so I suggest you... Your grandfather executed your cousin according to family law. Jian Chi cherished you very much at that time. He really felt that you should not be subordinated to others. "
"The person I can't stand is my uncle, but I can stand the rule of Dongyu." There was no emotion between Yuehu's brows.
Jian Bin looked at her son for a while, then turned to look out the window.
"Yes, the path Jian Chi wanted to take was too radical. If you had not made that decision at that time, I am afraid that before King Langyi could rebel, he would have caused an uproar. Yuehu, I am telling you this today because I know that you In the past few years, I have actually never let go of this matter.”
"Mom, I have never felt guilty." Yuehu said: "Dayu cannot have a civil war. Even if internal strife cannot be avoided, I cannot indulge in the civil war caused by me. Although my father is the king of a country, he is not the king of a country. He is not a hero. My father has been working hard to maintain balance and avoid civil war. Although there are people around my father who have been following me to help, there are still too few."
"You love your father, and you may be right."
"My respect and love for my mother are the same."
"You don't need so many sweet words, of course I know that." Jian Bin sighed softly. She finally couldn't help it: "That's why you came today because you know Wu Lang's difficulties. It's a pity that it's him after all. Gotta face it.”
Yuehu drank leisurely without any worries. He has always understood that there should be no weakness in a place of power. He is not hard-hearted, but in the eyes of the world, the colder and colder he is, the less humane he is, the less loopholes he has. He never used a cowering posture to protect himself, and he actually didn't know whether such an attitude was beneficial or harmful, but for many years, his mother's family had followed the rules, and his concubines had never been involved in any danger. Now he has In charge of Bingcao, he is more like a piece of iron than before.
On this day, Pingyi Bo reported his eldest son to the Tingwei Office.
It was rare for Zhongchang Shi to stutter when reporting something, which made Sikong Tong feel more and more headache. In fact, he had roughly known some of Qiao Bin's little tricks, but he didn't expect that such a big accident could actually happen. Yu Duo and his son Before the promiscuity in Qiao Dynasty had completely subsided, Pingyi Bo actually accused his eldest son of being disobedient and unfilial, his wife was jealous and unworthy and alienated the family, and his legitimate grandson raped and killed his father and concubines... Pingyi Bo wanted to expel Qiao Zhan from the clan, so he remonstrated. The second son Qiao Xi inherited the title!
"Wulang, why did this matter become such a situation?!" Sikong Tong actually didn't want to scold his son anymore today, but today was really an eventful day.
"The son is incompetent and cannot persuade his grandfather."
"Are you really unable to persuade Uncle Pingyi?!"
Nanci remained silent.
"Okay, this matter has reached this point. It doesn't matter who you advise or not. Let me ask you, what do you think should be done?"
"My son firmly believes that his uncle, aunt, and cousin are not guilty."
"Then what you mean is that Pingyi Bo is unkind?"
"This case should be reviewed and verified, the guilty should be punished, and the innocent should be protected."
What about Qiao Bin? Asking this question was like a buzzing sound, but Sikong Tong didn't ask in the end. He looked at Nanci, dazed for a moment.
This son was the one he had the highest hopes for. On the day Nanci was born, news of the victory of the Wang and Xie clans' coalition came back. That battle was the first key victory that Dayu won after its establishment. , it can be said that from then on, the Yu Dynasty he reestablished truly established the pattern of co-ruling Jiangdong with the clans. That was the battle where he got rid of the puppets. On that day, Qiao Bin gave birth to Nanci. He was overjoyed at the time and took the Wang Lan's hand said something - this son of mine, I have to ask my husband to teach me.
He said those words, which caused the queen's uneasiness, and perhaps also caused Wang Lan's uneasiness. Therefore, Wang Lan did not teach Nanci the power, and he regretted it later. He should not have acted on a whim. He did not think of him. A whim will ignite concubine Qiao's greed and ambition.
"Wu Lang, let me ask you, do you think Qiao Zizhan is not guilty because of an affair?"
"Yes." Nanci did not avoid the emperor's gaze, and said calmly: "My son has always believed that his uncle is loyal to the country since he was a child, and he is a role model for his son. The son respects his uncle as an upright gentleman, and his aunt is also kind and upright. He is the father of his grandfather." My son didn’t believe it.”
"I can't personally try this case," Sikong Tong said.
He didn't say why.
Nan Ci's heart was clear. He bowed deeply, but just withdrew from the incident. He was not the prince, and the perpetrator was his relative, not his minister, so this matter was not for him to judge. His grandfather Since the complaint has gone to the Tingwei Office, Tingweiqing should be responsible for the trial. This method is the most reasonable and can avoid expansion.
All he could do was do nothing. When his destiny restarted, he was still so powerless.
Yingshu stood in the corridor not far away. She already knew that Pingyi Bo had fallen into the trap. This matter was her decision for Nanci, but she could not face the next storm on behalf of Nanci. She Watching Nanci walk towards Qianyang Gate, with a shoulder covered with pale sunlight, he looked very lonely. At this time in his previous life, Nanci was still alive and high-spirited. Suddenly, there was a gloomy wind stabbing at the bottom of the corridor. In her chest, she felt her eyes turn cold again. She wanted to follow him and just leave the inner court quietly, but she knew that this method could not soothe Nanci's melancholy.
They tried hard to change some things, but they couldn't change their own destiny. Nanci was the prince, and she couldn't leave the palace. She didn't know how many choices Nanci would face next, but in order to get it, they She will definitely have to keep losing. Every step forward, the burden on her body becomes heavier. Some roads are destined to be walked alone. Like now, the battlefield she is going to is the Tingwei Department.
Yingshu saw the eunuch coming here to pray.
She went up to meet.
"Your Majesty, please invite the female prisoner to come in." The eunuch prayed with still attentive attitude.
Yingshu smiled: "Your Majesty must be angry again."
"His Majesty is still very gentle towards His Majesty the Fifth Highness."
"The eunuch is so cautious, which shows that His Majesty is extremely passionate about this matter."
"The female prisoner is really... Well, His Majesty thinks so highly of Prince Qiao, of course he will be angry that Uncle Pingyi would cause such an accident. Who would have thought? In a short period of time, first the descendants caused a big disturbance, and then followed There was actually a dispute between father and son in the Pingyi Bofu."
Eunuch Qi just said that he couldn't think of it, and he really couldn't explain why something that didn't happen in his previous life would happen again, and this thing would obviously affect Qiao Zizhan's fate!
As soon as Yingshu entered the imperial study, she knelt in front of His Majesty the Emperor. Without asking, she directly confessed that this incident was due to her fueling the situation, and it was she who suggested Prince Qiao and his wife expose Pingyi Bo's scheme.
"Even my aunt knows it very well. Ever since Concubine Qiao met Mr. Yang at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Mr. Yang has followed closely to Xie's house. Several times, she has pestered Mr. Xun and said those unclear words, with the intention of This angered Lady Xun, and her aunt knew that this matter was actually Concubine Qiao's idea. When her concubine mentioned it, she thought that Concubine Qiao still had a mate, so she took the opportunity to leave the palace and asked Lady Ren. Uncle Pingyi was really... ...To actually come up with such a vicious plot to frame her children and grandchildren, Ren Nujun didn’t want to make the family scandal public, but Ke’er thought that the prince’s tolerance and peaceful handling of the matter could not eradicate the hidden dangers.”
"Did you keep Nanji in the dark?"
"I didn't tell Nanci. After all, it concerns Nanci's mother-in-law. Nanci can't make a decision at all."
"You kept me in the dark too."
"I wasn't sure that Uncle Pingyi would really obey Concubine Qiao, so I didn't tell Uncle first. But now that Uncle Pingyi has taken the initiative to stir up trouble, I don't dare to hide it anymore."
"That's all, I really don't want the capable ministers and generals I value to be implicated by an ambitious woman and a confused old father. It's just that I can't personally come forward in this matter. Tingwei Qing Gu Geng, he can decide the matter Qingming, this matter involves filial piety, and even the title of Pingyi County House. As the middle daughter of Qianyang Palace, you are going to supervise the trial, and Gu Geng should be able to understand my attitude better."
In this way, Yingshu took the token given by His Majesty the Emperor and rushed to the Tingwei Office to supervise the trial.
