They all say I'm a puppet

It was a long journey from the capital to the south of the Yangtze River. A letter sent a year ago was tossed and turned, and it was already two months after Fu Yu received a reply.Spring comes early in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is the time for spring to bloom and everything to recover.

Fu Yuzheng was squatting in his yard, watching Cheng Zhongzheng planting unknown vegetable seedlings into the vegetable field. He also helped at first, but because he accidentally stepped on a freshly picked vegetable seedling when he turned around, He was driven out of the vegetable field by Cheng Zhong, and could only squat here while basking in the sun and watching eagerly.

The courtyard door was pushed open from the outside, Shi Shi ran in happily, holding a letter in his hand: "Brother Yu, Brother Yu, your letter is finally here!"

Fu Yu glanced at him lazily, and said helplessly: "Stinky boy, didn't you say you were called godfather?" After he chatted with Cheng Zhong that day, he took the time to chat with Shi Zhang and his wife. At that time, Shitou recognized Fuyu as his godfather. It has been almost two months, but Shitou still kept his mouth shut and called him brother. Fuyu reminded him several times, but Shitou had a deep-rooted impression of the title of brother, and he never liked it. It worked.

Hearing Fuyu's reminder, Shitou scratched his hair with a smile: "Oh, I forgot again." He ran to Fuyu and handed the letter to Fuyu, "Brother Yu, your letter, your gentleman is here Why did you reply so slowly last time?"

While opening the envelope, Fu Yu replied: "The capital city is not as busy as ours. There are many things to do here. It's also the Chinese New Year. I guess I should find time to return this letter."

Shi Shi couldn't fully understand Fu Yu's words, so he just stood behind Fu Yu, leaned half on his shoulder, and poked his head to read Fu Yu's letter.Fu Yu knew that he was just learning to read and was curious about everything with words, so she didn't care, and let him read from behind, and she also lowered her head and concentrated on reading the letter.

The situation in the capital is almost as Fu Yu expected. According to Su Kun's current status, and in time for the Chinese New Year, the people in Su's mansion come to visit under various banners. Su He, as the son of the mansion, Naturally, he had to follow Su Kun to meet various visitors every day. Su He always hated this way, but he couldn't help himself. He was physically and mentally exhausted every day, and he was free for more than half a month to write such a reply letter to Fu Yu.

Fu Yu inquired about the situation in the capital in roundabout ways in previous letters, and it seemed that he was only curious for a while, but Su He knew that what he wanted to inquire about was the person he had never asked before.So in Su He's letter, there are always details, including the battle between the crown prince and the King of Chu, the courtiers standing in their own lines, and his thoughtful father who contacted King Jin privately after a long silence.

Fu Yu didn't mention it, and Su He wouldn't directly mention King Jin's recent situation, but he could always let Fu Yu understand what he wanted to know from the side with a few words by chance.

Therefore, even though he was thousands of miles away, Fu Yu knew that King He Canglin of Jin was not as uncontested and undemanding as he showed to the outside world, and he was never as unambitious and cowardly as others thought.Sometimes thinking about it carefully, Fu Yu felt that he could also understand Cang Lin. He couldn't choose his own background. He was born in such an environment and he was a concubine. If he didn't think of a way, he might not even be able to protect himself.

Moreover, since the surname has been changed to He in this world, Cang Lin is the rightful prince. If one of the three He family brothers really wants to choose one to be the crown prince, Fu Yu thinks that Cang Lin should be more suitable.Although the Cang Lin I saw before may be just an illusion, Fu Yu still feels that only Cang Lin can become a good emperor who can truly care about the world and have compassion for the common people.

Although that Cang Lin was no longer the Cang Lin in his memory.

Fu Yu read the letter halfway, and his face changed, because Su He said in the letter that Su Kun went to the Prince's Mansion as a guest on the day before New Year's Eve, and he returned at dusk. Ci interviewed several courtiers of the prince's party for various reasons, and his intentions were already very obvious.

Fu Yu didn't know if Cang Lin had any other relationship in the court, but he definitely bet a lot on Su Kun. At this time, Su Kun chose to lean towards the prince, which had a great influence on Cang Lin .What's even more frightening is that if the collusion between Su Kun and the prince is all in the dark, Cang Lin still thinks that Su Kun is on his side. , I am afraid that there will be no good ending.

Fu Yu has had contact with Su Kun, and learned a lot from Su He. This person is the most cautious, and why did he defect to the crown prince? Or, from the very beginning, his contact with Cang Lin was not Is it under the order of the prince?

Haven't all the disguises and schemes of Cang Lin been exposed to others?

Thinking about the consequences, Fu Yu felt shuddering.

He may have resentment towards Cang Lin's deception that day, but he can't watch Cang Lin fall into danger no matter what.After all, they used to get along day and night, and even shared life and death, even though Cang Lin's feelings for him were a fake, but everything he had for Cang Lin was real.

Although he deliberately concealed it, although he never mentioned Cang Lin's name, he could not let the feelings he had paid disappear, because those pasts were real after all.

Fu Yu squeezed the letter in his hand tightly, took a deep breath, calmed himself down, turned another page, and saw that Su He said at the end of the letter that after the New Year's Eve, the crown prince sent two young ladies to the Prince Jin's mansion King Jin actually accepted it readily. He Hongyi originally had no expectations for this unpromising son from a concubine, so he turned a blind eye to it.

It's just that some rumors that were originally in the dark have now become a well-known fact. Jin Wang was close to being a weak crown, but he refused the emperor's marriage several times. After entering the mansion, the rumors that the King of Jin was a manly man came true.

There are also rumors that the King of Jin was imprisoned in the Nanxia Palace in the early years, and had a long-term relationship with the Nanxia puppet emperor Chunxi Emperor. After Emperor Chunxi died, he was in great pain. , Supervising the construction of Emperor Chunxi's Mausoleum, this is the reason why the current emperor is indifferent to King Jin.

Replaying such deep love and righteousness may become a good story in folk rumors, but it will be disdainful in the court. As a prince, he is so addicted to the love of his children, and he is not on the stage. No matter if it is in He Hongyi's heart or in the hearts of civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, such a person is probably disqualified from competing for the throne.

Su He's letters have always only expounded facts and rarely expressed his own opinions and views.He knew what Fu Yu cared about, so he described what Fu Yu cared about, but never mentioned his own point of view.Because he knows that he is not good at this, on the contrary, Fu Yu is much more transparent than him in these matters. Fu Yu may not understand the situation in the court well enough, but he understands people's hearts.

So he finished talking about all that Fu Yu cared about, and a letter was written, and Fu Yu stared at the inscription at the end of the letter for a long time.

As one of the parties concerned, the "deceased" Emperor Chunxi of Nanxia, ​​Fuyu would never have expected such a rumor in the court, so he stared at the passage again for a while, trying to straighten it out own thoughts.

He could see from Su He's few words before that although Cang Lin didn't take part in the government, it didn't mean he didn't care about the throne, otherwise he wouldn't have contacted Su Kun. On the contrary, Fu Yu always felt that he was He is intentionally showing weakness to reduce his threat and existence, and he may even secretly push for the dispute between the prince and the king of Chu. Only when these two people really fight, can he sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, then he has the greatest chance of winning.

Is this rumor also a means for him to show weakness?Fu Yu believed that Prince Ruuo and the king of Chu must be very happy to hear this rumor. A good man is destined not to be able to carry on the family line, and because of this, the younger brother who has lost his father's expectations is naturally not a threat.However, he would also lose the support of He Hongyi and the courtiers. Isn't the price too high?

Besides, even if it is really masculine, it is understandable to bring a few young men into the mansion, but why go to the imperial mausoleum of the former dynasty to show that you never forget the former emperor?

Even if He Hongyi was a minister of the Southern Xia Dynasty, in order to maintain his image, he ordered people to continue to build a mausoleum for Emperor Chunxi, and led all the civil and military officials to worship, but as the founding king, the former dynasty was always a root in his heart. Even if he obviously couldn't show it, Cang Lin's move would definitely make him feel unacceptable.Cang Lin couldn't be ignorant of this matter, since he wanted the throne, why did he want to do this?

Fu Yu felt that her thoughts were confused, but she couldn't think of a clue no matter what.He folded the letter in his hand and simply sat on the ground.Shi Shi, who had been poking around behind him, seemed to sense something was wrong with him, and carefully squatted down next to Fu Yu, turned his head sideways to look at his face, and whispered, "Brother Yu, what's wrong with you?"

Fu Yu shook her head and smiled at him: "It's okay, the letter written by Mr. is too long, it's all words, and I get a headache after reading too much."

Shi Shi looked at him suspiciously, and finally turned his head to look at Cheng Zhong in the vegetable field with some uncertainty. Cheng Zhong also noticed the change in Fu Yu, put down the hoe in his hand, and walked towards him silently.

Fu Yu raised her head, met his worried eyes, and forced a smile: "Uncle Zhong, I'm a little dizzy, I'm going to the lake to relax."

Cheng Zhong sighed lowly: "Go, remember to come back for lunch."
