Wen Xiangyanyu

Chapter 46 Repaying Resentment with Virtue

Xihua helped the queen mother to go forward, but was stared at by the eldest princess, she just didn't see it, and helped the queen mother to sit in the seat.

The emperor said embarrassingly: "Why are you here, queen mother, it's fine..."

"Such a big thing is nothing? If Xihua hadn't told me, when are you going to keep it from me?"

The empress dowager interrupted the emperor in a cold voice, her eyes fell on Wen Ying's face with slightly lowered eyes, she paused, and waved to him: "Come here, child."

Wen Ying stepped forward, knelt down in front of the Queen Mother, and raised his head so that she could see clearly.

The Empress Dowager stared at him for a while, then sighed: "Sure enough, he looks like the late emperor, and he is more handsome than the late emperor when he was young. He is a child of our family."

Ling Qiyan in the corner clenched his fists hard, and there was no trace of blood on his pale face.

There was a hint of sobs in the queen mother's voice: "I am your grandmother, good boy, please call me."

Wen Ying's lips moved, and he whispered, "Grandmother."

"Okay, okay, just come back. You have suffered for the past 20 years, and your father, queen, and queen will double the compensation to you in the future. Get up, don't keep kneeling."

Yun Shi was still sneering, and after speaking with Wen Ying, the Queen Mother looked at her with a calm but not angry expression, staring at her for size.

Yun looked back provocatively, the queen mother looked at her, and couldn't help but think of the girl who was as delicate as a flower bone back then. Not to mention the emperor liked it, she herself also liked Yun, the grinning and smiling prospective daughter-in-law.

However, due to the twists and turns of the world, she finally became what she is now.

There was more compassion in the eyes of the Queen Mother, and she said to her: "In righteousness, the emperor really owes you the Zhenbeihou Mansion, but he has tried his best to make up for it these years, helping you to rehabilitate, returning the title, and treating those who still owe you money well." The surviving female family members of the Hou Mansion, of course, dozens of lives in the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, such compensation is indeed far from enough."

"In terms of personal relationship, I knew that the emperor had you in his heart. After the incident happened in the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, I ordered someone to bring Yizhi to take you out. Even if I can't be the concubine, I can help him keep you, yes You can’t wait to run away first, this matter can only be regarded as a coincidence.”

"What happened afterward, the suffering you suffered, you should resent and hate, but to this point, a large part of it is your own responsibility, no matter whether you abandon your husband and son and try to return to Beijing, it is for the sake of glory and wealth, Or just for the sake of the emperor, you have done wrong, at least you are sorry for the warm hunter who took you in and helped you when you were most helpless."

"The worst thing you did was to change the two children. Among these old things, these two children are the most innocent. They should not be the victims of your revenge."

"The emperor is sorry for you, but he has also helped you raise your son for 20 years. Your son grew up in a good life, but the emperor's son lived a miserable life. The father and son met each other but did not recognize each other. In 20 years, you did succeed in revenge. gone."

"Qi Yan is my most beloved grandson. Now I know that he is not my own grandson, but I brought him up with my own hands, and I still love him. I can't tell him to turn my back on him, but I can't ignore me. My own grandson, so I won't treat him like I used to."

"My resentment towards you is no less than that of the emperor and empress, but it is meaningless for me to argue with you any longer."

"Today, if you continue to be entangled in hatred like this, it will only appear that you are too pitiful and hateful. You might as well let yourself go."

Yun's eyes widened, his lips trembled, his voice was hoarse and he wanted to argue, but when he met the empress dowager's calm gaze, he couldn't say a word, and finally broke down completely, crying bitterly.

The queen mother called someone to take him down first.

Shen suddenly raised her voice, and said sharply: "She has committed a serious crime against the Nine Clans! She must die! Her son who has occupied the magpie's nest must also die!"

She pointed at Ling Qiyan with one finger, and glared at the queen mother, wishing she could drag the two of them together to Lingchi now.

Ling Qiyan lowered his head and remained silent, making it difficult for people to see the expression on his face.

The Empress Dowager didn't look at him, nor did she pay attention to the Empress, she just asked the Emperor: "How do you plan to deal with this matter? Are you going to make a commotion that everyone in the court knows?"

The emperor's face was ashen, speechless, he naturally didn't want to, he is the best way to save face, if people know that he is like a fool, fooled by a woman, raising a son for 20 years in vain, his old face will be It was completely thrown away.

This is what he cannot bear.

The queen mother guessed what he was thinking, and ordered people to take Ling Qiyan down first.

"Mother's queen!" Shen's eyes were red with anger, and she asked the queen mother recklessly, "Are you still going to protect that bastard? Don't forget that the one standing in front of you is your own grandson!"

The Empress Dowager still ignored her, and said to the emperor: "Take the prayer banquet first, you ask someone to find a palace to detain him for the time being, and then make a decision after thinking about how to end this matter, I will not take him to Ningshou Palace That's it, lest people say that I'm taking sides with him."

The emperor nodded coldly.

Shen was furious: "What are you waiting for! He must die! A glass of poisoned wine will solve it directly!!"

Ling Qiyan had already walked out of the gate of the main hall, and his back gradually faded away. It seemed that His Royal Highness King Yu, who was so carefree in the past, would never come back again.

Wen Ying watched in silence until he was completely out of sight.

The Shen family hated her so much that she questioned the Queen Mother again: "Say no favoritism! You clearly want to protect him! You still want to protect that bastard?! Then what about my son?! My son deserves to be punished!" Has he occupied his identity for 20 years?!"

The Empress Dowager's face darkened, and she finally held back, skipped mentioning this, and asked the emperor another more important matter: "How do you plan to explain this child's identity to the outside world?"

The emperor was hesitant for a moment, King Jing thought for a while, and suggested to him: "It's best not to spread the word about changing the child, so as not to cause more gossip and ruin the reputation of the royal family, why not just say that the emperor's wife was born that year?" It is twins. This child was approved by the eminent monk and must be raised among the people. He can only be recognized when he reaches his twenties. This child is ranked first in the sequence, and the others are in the lower sequence."

Although such a statement is absurd and absurd, perhaps no one will believe it at all, but as long as it can be barely justified, the story of not exchanging the civet cat for the prince is known to the world, and it is enough to preserve the royal family's face.

"I don't agree!" Before the emperor could make a statement, Shen was the first to object, "Why do you want me to recognize that little bastard as my son again! He is a bastard born to a woman in a mountain village and has robbed me of my son's identity for 20 years. Why occupy the name of the prince and continue to enjoy the glory and wealth! I don't agree!"

"Then can you come up with a better idea?" The Queen Mother finally asked her in a cold voice.

Shen's face was flushed red, she clenched her teeth, and said with hatred: "Then let him die suddenly! Even if he occupies the title of prince, he must die! If he dies, the others don't need to be rearranged, Yu'er is still the same. Second son!"

"Leave him."

Without waiting for the queen mother to say anything, Wen Ying, who had been silent all this time, said unexpectedly: "I also ask my father, queen mother, and grandmother to be kind, King Yu and that Yun family, give them their lives."

Shen was taken aback, and raised her voice angrily: "Are you crazy? Their mother and son have caused you so far, and you still want to intercede for them?!"

Wen Ying raised his eyes to look at her, with a calm and calm face: "Just think of it as a blessing for me. I have just been recognized. I don't want too many people to die because of me. I hope the queen mother will be kind."

"You are a good boy with a kind heart," the Empress Dowager answered first, "Praying that he can't threaten you with anything, you are so tolerant, and you are willing to repay evil with kindness. If you let him go, you will be rewarded with good fortune in the future."

Shen was furious. What's more, the emperor was completely impatient, and ordered in a cold voice: "This is the case beforehand, temporarily detain him, let me think about it, and discuss it later."

He is not as determined as Shen Shi to kill people, although he is extremely disappointed with Yun Shi, but after all, she is a woman who has truly loved and loved for 20 years, and Ling Qiyan was raised by her side since she was a child. Even if he is ignorant and unlovable, it would be a lie to say that he has no father-son relationship at all.

What he cares about most is face, as long as the face matter can be passed smoothly, and his own extremely excellent biological son can come back, he can barely suppress his tone.

He naturally knew that the queen mother was reluctant to let Ling Qiyan die. Although the queen mother didn't care much about Ling Qiyan, she just wanted to keep him. Even for the queen mother, he couldn't really kill him.

Now that he has regained his sanity, remembering what Shen said when he lost his composure, he deliberately got a corpse to lie to him, the emperor couldn't help but feel annoyed at her, and he didn't want her to be satisfied.

So he signaled the eldest princess and Xihua to send the queen mother back first, and then let the Shen family go back to Fengyi Palace. The emperor left Wen Ying alone. He had just recognized his son and still had a lot to say.

Wen Ying is not a talkative person. The emperor only answers when he asks. When talking about the past, he always mentions it in a few words. There is no resentment or complaint in his words. This makes the emperor very gratified and even more emotional. Lang, it is really rare to be able to be so prudent and calm, not to be surprised by favor or shame.

The more the emperor looked at this son, the more satisfied he was. Wen Ying was handsome and talented, and he was truly talented in both civil and military. In just three years, if he had been promoted to the fifth-rank defense, if he had not been replaced, no one would be more suitable than him to be the crown prince of a country.

Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't help feeling a little regretful. Although Ling Qiyu was also smart, compared to Wen Ying, he was not enough to look at. That kind of cleverness looked more like a petty cleverness than a great talent, and that kid these days Nian's mind is getting more and more crooked, which makes him more and more dissatisfied, but as long as Ling Qiyu doesn't make a big mistake, he is not easy to change people. After all, the abolition of the crown prince is related to the national destiny and cannot be easily changed.

Really, what a pity.

Fengyi Palace.

As soon as Shen came back, she lost her temper and threw things, and the servants in the palace knelt down tremblingly.

When she had vented enough, she kicked everyone out, leaving only Mammy Liu Shi.

Mrs. Liu was the maid who fled with her back then, she had been her confidant and the most respectable person around her for the next 20 years, but now Mrs. Shen has angered her.

"For a whole month that year, you didn't find out that Orion's wife was that bitch from the Yun family?! Didn't you find out that Ben Gong's child was swapped?!"

Mrs. Liu was terrified, knelt on the ground and trembled for a long time before saying: "I have never seen Yun before, and I did not expect that my highness will be replaced by someone. You should die..."

She didn't dare to say that she actually had doubts. After Ling Qiyan grew up, she occasionally looked at the face of His Royal Highness Prince Yu, and always recalled for no reason the wife of Orion who had an extraordinary appearance back then.

She didn't know that the person was Yun's daughter, and even if she knew, she didn't dare to say it.

Ling Qiyan looks a lot like Yun Shi. Before he didn't know his relationship with Yun Shi, even Shen Shi had never connected the two of them together. She thought it was because this son was born at odds with her, just like Ruo I don't know that Wen Ying is the emperor's son, no matter how much he looks like the first emperor, no one will take it seriously, or even ignore it subconsciously.

But Mrs. Liu had met the wife of the Orion before. She looked at Ling Qiyan getting more and more like that little lady, so she couldn't help but feel uneasy, but after so many years, she didn't dare to ask any questions, so she just let her go. It rotted in the stomach, never thought that this matter would be exposed after all.

Seeing her reaction, Shen guessed that she might have discovered the truth a long time ago, and immediately became more angry, and immediately ordered someone to drag her down.

Ling Qiyu entered the door, just when he saw this scene, he saw Mrs. Liu kept begging for mercy and being dragged away, he paused, and asked Mrs. Shen: "What made the queen mother so angry? I heard that you and your grandmother, aunt, Uncle Wu Huang and the others have all gone to Xingqing Palace, what happened, can you tell my son?"

Chen said the matter through gritted teeth.

Ling Qiyu froze on the spot in astonishment: "Really?!"

"It's true," Shen said angrily, "If the Empress Dowager hadn't stopped her, the mother and child would have died without a place to bury them!"

She didn't get angry with Wen Ying very much at the moment, she just thought that Wen Ying just came back and foolishly wanted to show his magnanimity, so she would intercede for Yun and Ling Qiyan, she even felt that Ling Qiyan disgusted her and restrained him Well, it's because he is that woman's seed, and if he were her own, even if he was snatched away by the queen mother, he would definitely kiss her and kiss her!

So she hated Ling Qiyan so much that she wished he would die immediately.

Ling Qiyu came back to his senses, his eyes rolled quickly, and his expression was extremely gloomy: "The queen mother said, that Wen Ying is the elder brother of the minister?"

Seeing him like this, Shen thought that he was thinking about what he had, so she reminded him: "Your elder brother has suffered a lot these years, and now he has finally come back, just let him order, your royal father I will definitely try to make up for your eldest brother, but the crown prince is yours, he can't take it away, you don't have to worry about this, and there is no need to have a quarrel with him, he is capable, if you can get along well, he will be yours in the future A boost."

Mentioning this, Shen couldn't help but feel a little proud, Yun, a bitch, really gave birth to a son just like her, beautiful and ignorant, only she could give birth to a good boy like Wen Ying who is both civil and military!

Ling Qiyu lowered his eyes to cover up the gloom in his eyes: "...My son knows."

An hour later, Wen Ying came to Fengyi Palace to pay a visit to Mrs. Shen.

Ling Qiyu sat beside Shen Shi, watching Wen Ying, who had not seen him for three years and now turned into his elder brother, walked in the door, unable to stop being irritable.

Even when Wen Ying raised his eyes and turned his eyes inadvertently to him, a trace of fear appeared in his heart for no reason.

This person, how could he have such good luck, he failed to kill him three years ago, and this person might become his biggest trouble in the future.

The more Ling Qiyu thought about it, the more annoyed he became, but in front of Shen, he didn't show it at all, with a smile on his lips, he took the initiative to get up and greet Wen Ying.

Wen Ying's face was pale, but he couldn't fault it.

Mrs. Shen called him to sit down before him, and asked someone to serve refreshments. She looked like a loving mother, and her eyes were red: "The queen mother doesn't know what you like to eat, my poor son, it's only when the mother is so old that I don't know about you. exist……"

Wen Ying said in a low voice: "Mother, don't be too sad, everything is over."

Ling Qiyu also took advantage of the situation to comfort Shen.

Shen squeezed the handkerchief and pressed the corners of her eyes, and sighed: "You are still caring, the biological ones are different."

She asked Wen Ying again: "Why did you speak up for the mother and son? They deserved what they deserved. Why do you have to sympathize with them?"

Before Wen Ying could say anything, Ling Qiyu said with a half-smile, "Brother used to be a guest of Prince Yu's residence, and he had a close relationship with that person, I think he couldn't bear it."

Shen frowned, she naturally knew about this, the little bastard had shown off this in front of her before, and she became angry when she mentioned it, and taught Wen Ying: "People are kind and deceived by others, what is that little friendship? Didn't he drive you out of the mansion later on, and even cut off your official career? Besides, the mansion of King Yu was supposed to be yours, and he occupied the magpie's nest, but you still spoke for him."

Wen Ying calmly explained: "It's not for him, it's for my adoptive father. My adoptive father doesn't know about changing children. He always treats me as his own son and treats me very well. I just want to keep my adoptive father's blood. Although Shi never raised me, my adoptive father missed her until his death, I don't want him to feel sad because of this incident, and hope that the queen mother will be kind."

Shen's face darkened, but Wen Ying was respectful, as if begging her, she was not good at getting angry with the son she had just recognized, so she endured and endured, and said: "Repaying grievances with kindness is of course good, but some people commit heinous crimes. You deserve it."

Wen Ying closed her eyes and didn't answer.

After staying in Fengyi Palace for an hour, Wen Ying had to go to Ningshou Palace to meet the Empress Dowager, so he resigned and left first.

Just as he walked out, someone behind him called him, "Brother Wen!"

Wen Ying turned around, and it was the sixth prince, Ling Qining. The child came striding over and looked up at him: "I heard it at the gate of the hall just now, you are my eldest brother, the original eldest brother is fake, isn't it?"

The sixth prince was only 12 years old, and Shen obviously didn't tell him about it. Wen Ying played throwing pots with this kid back then, remembering him, nodded: "Yeah."

Ling Qining opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment, but his eyes turned red slightly: "Then..., the original big brother, will he die?"

After a moment of silence, Wen Ying whispered two words: "No."
