Bastards

King Changjun is in a very dangerous situation now.

He thinks that he is in control of everything he plays, but in fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see through it at a glance.His narrow-mindedness, his small actions to save the situation, are as superficial as they are.

In order to prevent her son from continuing to mess around and make even bigger mistakes, Concubine Tian Gui called King Changjun to her side, and gave her some advice.

If she doesn't enlighten, King Chang can still comfort himself, don't think about the bad situation, and can sleep well at night. She analyzed it in depth, broke it apart and said that there is danger everywhere. It was a dead end, King Chang was so frightened... he fainted immediately, and even developed a fever at night.

Concubine Tian: ...

There is no way, the son is cowardly, and it is also the flesh that fell from his body, so he can't ignore it.

Concubine Tian Gui asked the imperial physician to ask carefully, knowing that King Changjun was just mentally frightened, and a few doses of medicine would heal him, so she was relieved.She called the princess Zheng of Changjun and told her to serve the king of Changjun in a good life, so she calmed down and went to Taikang Emperor with arrogance.

She had thought about it, King Chang did something wrong, he didn't grasp the scale well, it was a little too much, but this child is full of sincerity, only trying to make some money, not thinking about anything else, only this one, it deserves to be forgiven.

Which child does not make mistakes?Just teach it well.

But in the royal family, this fall is a bit heavy.Once things get out and people with ulterior motives fuel the flames, and the king of Changjun has no support from the court, and the courtiers criticize him verbally, it is conceivable how miserable the king of Changjun will fall.

The only one who can fight with the courtiers and has more power than the courtiers is Emperor Taikang.

No one can point to their mother and son right now, only Emperor Taikang.

Emperor Taikang was most afraid of trouble, and if something happened, he would seek his protection again, which would definitely arouse his dissatisfaction.What to do, you have to hurry now.As long as the coaxed Emperor Taikang has a fixed impression in his heart and loves the king of Changjun, even if things happen in the future, don't be afraid, Emperor Taikang can take care of his shortcomings by himself.

Anyway, it is just hoarding food to make money, not to rebel.

However, because of the victory of Tianze Temple, the brothers of Yuejun Wang Changjun killed each other, which attracted Emperor Taikang's disgust... It's not easy to handle.

But who is Tian Guifei?

She has only favored the harem for decades, and as Emperor Taikang's most beloved, trusted and even most dependent concubine, Tian Guifei's handling of Emperor Taikang's character weaknesses is superb.

It didn't take long for her to worry about it, and she came up with a good plan.

She changed into plain clothes, put a layer of slightly white powder on her face, even puffed her lips lightly, and then complained of illness.

Mother and child are heart-to-heart, Duke Chang's fever is so severe, it's normal for her mother to fall ill.

Not long after, Emperor Taikang came to see her and felt distressed when he saw her pale face and pale lips: "Why did you become so sick after not seeing her for a while? For Shu'er?"

Concubine Tian Gui burst into tears: "Please don't blame Shu'er, the emperor. It's not because he is unfilial, but because the concubine is not good. The concubine did not take good care of herself, could not serve the emperor, and made the emperor feel uncomfortable. It is the concubine's fault." ..."

She has no make-up, plain eyebrows and eyes, and her hair is only pulled up in a low bun. She doesn't even use a hairpin. The clothes on her body are neat and pure white, spotless, and she looks a few years younger. Sentimental charm of youth.

When she cried, the tears would not fall, she knelt on the bed and kowtowed to apologize, the plain white silk dress slid off, outlining the perfect waist and arm lines, plus the small piece of snowy neck behind her hair...

The collision of these two temperaments, mature and youthful, produced a different kind of charming and seductive taste.

Especially attractive.

Emperor Taikang was breathing heavily, and couldn't help stretching out his hand to caress Concubine Tian Gui's face, put his big arms around her waist, and hugged her into his arms: "Why did I ever say that I was angry? Huh?"

Concubine Tian Gui knows best what winks can come. Seeing Emperor Taikang like this, she knew what was going on in his mind.When the shoulder was pierced by a dagger and the blood flow was bad, she would not refuse Emperor Taikang's affection, let alone this time?

She exclaimed at the right time, her eyes were full of thoughts, and her voice was full of anger: "The emperor..."

It's been a lot of rain.

Afterwards, Emperor Taikang couldn't bear seeing Concubine Tian Gui's delicate appearance, and stroked her hair: "You have a good rest, and leave the internal and external matters to the servants, huh?"

Concubine Tian Gui looked at Emperor Taikang with attachment, like a soft and obedient girl: "Well, all the courtiers and concubines listen to the emperor."

As a result, Emperor Taikang regretted it less than two days after leaving Tian Guifei's palace.

For some reason, she was usually fine, but Tian Guifei's illness suddenly caused more troubles in the harem.It wasn't that the palace lord was being embezzled by the palace people and was dying of illness, or that a few nobles and beauties were trying to compete for favor in various ways, trying to take advantage of Concubine Tian's absence to give herself a chance.

Emperor Taikang was a man, and he was somewhat proud that there were beautiful women competing for his love, but these women were ignorant, and they were ruthless with each other, and he was not happy if their lives were lost.

Although his harem did not favor many times, most of the famous ones were related to the situation in the court. How could the courtiers not be chilled by the death and disability of a few?

To him, these women are dispensable things, but to the courtiers, these women are close relatives!

When things come together, more than one heart will be hurt.

When people were dissatisfied, they formed a group to make noise, making Taikang Emperor so noisy that they couldn't sleep well at night.

For the first time, he complained in his heart that Concubine Tian Gui's illness came at an inopportune time. If she was here, she would definitely be able to handle it well.But he personally sent a message to tell Concubine Tian Gui to rest well and not to worry about other things. Now Concubine Tian Guifei is not in good health yet, and the imperial physicians said that her illnesses come and go like a thread, and she has to take care of her for half a month anyway.

In less than half a month, the courtiers can fly into trouble!

Emperor Taikang had a headache.

However, the trouble didn't stop because of his headache. He ordered and warned, but it didn't work. There are always some mentally abnormal women who are tortured by life in the deep palace. No matter what they say, it's useless to them. They are not afraid of anything, just I want to fight before I die!

But if the matter is not made public and this woman is not revealed, Emperor Taikang doesn't even know who the lunatic is!

Just when things were about to get out of control and Emperor Taikang made up his mind to clean up the palace and set off a bloody storm, Prince Chang recovered.

Concubine Tian Gui also recovered from her illness.

Concubine Tian Gui was anxious about Emperor Kangdi's anxiety, and when she learned about the matter, she immediately took action and firmly suppressed it!After all, he is someone who has been in charge of the affairs of the harem for decades. He is very proficient in various crisis response methods, and can turn a major event into invisible!

Emperor Taikang didn't know that all of this was arranged by Concubine Tian Gui, but he just felt a little incredible.

He knows that Concubine Tian Gui has some skills, and some things can be done quickly and well by entrusting her to her, but this time the matter is so big, it can be calmed down so quickly... If you only talk about the harem, it is still connected with the previous court. !

He didn't believe that Concubine Tian Gui had the power of the previous court. This woman was timid and always regarded him as her heaven, and would never do anything beyond the rules.

If he couldn't figure it out, Concubine Tian Gui provided him with the answer.

That night, Tian Guifei hooked Emperor Taikang into her bed again, when the clouds and rain had just rested and the atmosphere was the most peaceful and beautiful, she mentioned Prince Chang.

"...As soon as Chen Qie heard that Shu'er was healed, in her heart, it was as if a big stone had been removed. When it was suddenly lightened, people followed suit! What Master Huizhi said back then was true, Shu'er was the concubine's wife. Lucky Star!"

She sighed and said, Taikang Emperor's thoughts diverged, and he also remembered this incident.

When the prince was born, according to the rules, a master was invited to give orders. At that time, the situation was tense and things were not going well, so Emperor Taikang did not invite him. After the matter passed, he invited Master Huizhi, an eminent monk of Tianze Temple, to calculate the horoscope.

Master Huizhi is an eminent monk who has attained the Tao, usually he speaks very little, and it is difficult to invite people, but his calculations are very accurate and he has never made a mistake.

He said that the king of Changjun is a lucky star, so he may not be enough to challenge the country, but he was born with merit and virtue. As long as he is there, the Yang family can continue, the blood of the Yang family can be extended, and Zhongxing will prosper.

Emperor Taikang was still a little dissatisfied at the beginning, how could his son's talent not be enough to challenge the world?Later, when I thought about the eldest son of King Yuejun, this point of dissatisfaction was suppressed.This is just right, brothers and sisters, Jiangshan Shuntai, of course it is a blessing!

It's not a big deal, he was happy for a while, but he forgot about it, if Concubine Tian Gui didn't mention it today, he wouldn't even remember it.

Hearing Tian Guifei's words in his ears, he didn't enter his heart, his mind was empty, and his thoughts were allowed to diverge at will.For some reason, Emperor Taikang recalled all the good and bad things in these years.

It was strange that when things were going well, he couldn't think of too many things, but when things were not going well, the figure of Prince Chang always appeared.Either I was injured, or I was sick, or I was dissatisfied, unhappy, uncomfortable, and all kinds of tossing.

If this is the other way around, wouldn't it mean that if King Changjun is unwell, things will go wrong for him?

Emperor Taikang sat up from the bed in a hurry.

Concubine Tian Gui's face was "bewildered": "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Emperor Taikang would not tell Concubine Tian Gui, he is the emperor, so why not show his emotions or anger?

"It's nothing."

He hugged Tian Guifei again and lay down: "Go to sleep."

Tian Guifei covered her mouth with her slender hands at the right time, yawned gracefully, leaned on Emperor Taikang, and fell asleep.

Not long after, she turned around with a deep smile on her lips.

It became.

On the second day, Emperor Taikang called the king of Laichang County to act as a loving father and take care of him in various ways.

King Changjun was a little confused, but he was not stupid. He immediately thought of what Concubine Tian Gui said before: Everything has a mother and concubine, so you just wait obediently.This is... the concubine mother pulled back the Sacred Heart for him?

He has no other skills, he is the best at acting cute and coquettish, and he also knows how to pretend to be aggrieved, and there are back and forth.He said that he was wrong, that he was thinking left before, and then someone coaxed him to talk, so he fell out with his brother.

"But brother is also at fault!" He puffed up his face, frowned, and acted cute and aggrieved, "He can't hurt me too much, and when I bit my tongue, I was just being naughty." , he beat and scolded, and now I know I was wrong, and he still ignores me..."

It's very pretend.

After two days, Emperor Taikang was coaxed by him... Plus Concubine Tian Gui beat the side drums at the right time, and there was no trouble around her. She always recalled the happy days before, especially when King Changjun was a child, he was round and fat like a white dumpling, Be as cute as you can be.

As soon as Emperor Taikang was happy, he issued a decree and was promoted to the title of King Changjun, and he will be King Chang again in the future.

King Chang didn't lose his mind either. Under Tian Guifei's signal, he confessed the matter of hoarding grain, admitted his mistake, and said that he was just curious, wanted to learn about people's livelihood, and make some money by the way, to see if what was said in the book was true .

Emperor Taikang was still a little angry, but when he asked carefully, King Chang's handling of this matter was quite rough, even buying grain with great fanfare, anyone could find out by touching it, and even rebelled?This kid has no IQ at all!

He pretended not to be happy, and scolded King Chang. Seeing that King Chang was as frightened as a quail, standing aside with his neck shrunk, he couldn't bear it anymore, and symbolized that he would be punished for a few days and the matter would be over.

King Chang came back with the title of title, not beautiful, all kinds of frightening, when others saw him, they would congratulate him no matter what they met, this young master is not a vegetarian, what if he provoked others to take revenge?Then the situation is very good.

The king of Yuejun just hehe.

His younger brother is really promising, he can act, and he confessed to his father coquettishly, saying that it was a small fight between brothers, and blame him for being a little brother, why don't you come and say this in front of me in person?Is it true knowledge is wrong, or is it pretending, you know it well!

For such a big matter as hoarding food, the emperor can still let it go lightly, it can be seen that he was blindfolded and fascinated!This step is to stockpile food, you let it go, and the next step he rebels, don't you want to applaud and say that the rebellion is good, the rebellion is wonderful?

And the concubine...

In your heart, do you still have a point for my son?

……

There was a commotion in the palace over there, and here Cui Shu was knocking milk-flavored melon seeds while patting the table: "What am I talking about? Concubine Tian Gui can handle it all by herself! You don't need our help!"

Xiang Ling had a calm expression of "you are right about what you say to you", and skillfully poured tea to his mouth.

Accidentally showed their affection again.

Cui Yan wasn't jealous at all, tugged at Yang Xuan's sleeves, and said with shrewd eyes, "The king of Yuejun is so pitiful and helpless, His Royal Highness, please help."

Yang Xuan touched Cui Yu's little hand, pretending to be calm, and he was more forceful than Xiang Ling: "Since the Crown Princess ordered it like this, Gu will naturally follow it."

Cui Yu: ...What the hell is the princess!

Cui Shu stared at them with wide eyes, envious.

This is so advanced!So loving!

Xiang Ling froze for a second while holding the teacup.

……

The king of Chang succeeded in being promoted to the rank, and the king of Yuejun was still the king of the county. According to the etiquette, when we met, the king of Yuejun wanted to salute the king of Chang.But he is the elder brother, who occupies the word 'long', plus King Chang's performance in front of Emperor Taikang before, he has to justify himself, and he will not be forced to salute, and the king of Yuejun can't bend that waist.

This picture of brothers and sisters respecting each other is very beautiful to outsiders, but the king of Yuejun is extremely uncomfortable in his heart.

This younger brother made a big mistake, he was not ashamed, but proud, and the emperor still indulged him, not only did not punish him, he was even promoted to a noble.But what about him?He has worked diligently for so many years, until his hands are empty and he has nothing!

No matter how he looked at it, he felt that the eyes that King Chang looked at him were full of sarcasm.

The king of Yuejun was not reconciled at first, but it would be strange if he could bear it now, actively contacted the household department, devoted himself to collecting evidence, and swore to the great cause of King Chang.

The Ministry of Households was being burned out by King Chang's trick. Seeing the king of Yue came to help, he was overjoyed and grateful in his heart. He worked with the king of Yue and forged a profound revolutionary friendship...

Then, it was a one-sided fight.

The king of Yuejun, Renyin, got the evidence, and he did not report it to Emperor Taikang in private. He encouraged the household department to hate Changwang. When it was mobilized, several parties came together, and the criticism of King Chang...was too horrible to look at.

King Pianchang was under the control of Concubine Tian Gui and watched by Emperor Taikang before, and he did not develop any connections between the court and China. This momentum has been suppressed at all.

It seems that if the prince of Chang Wang is not cut, it is not enough for the common people to be angry...

During this period, the prince had nothing to do from the beginning to the end, no one cared about him at all, and no one guarded against him, just giving him a chance to do his own business and watch the show by the way.

He thought, Ashina Huyun couldn't sit still anymore.

As a result, Ashina Huyun moved, but he didn't come out in person. He just threw out a group of strange beast bird head tattoos, desperate to assassinate the king of Yuejun.

regardless of costs!

The corpses of the assassins were all pulled by carts. Hundreds of people died in exchange for the serious injury of Yuejun King.

After closing the gate of hell, King Yue woke up and couldn't believe that he was really alive.

The side concubine Zhuang Shu was very haggard, and threw herself to his bedside with tears in her eyes: "Your Highness, you have finally woken up!"

At first glance, it looks like he is waiting by the side with his clothes on.

The king of Yuejun moved slightly in his heart, and gently shook her hand: "I'll be fine if I come back to life, don't worry... Are you alone here? Where's the princess?"

Zhuang Shu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes wandered slightly: "Sister Wangfei has been guarding His Highness before, but His Highness is young and sick again, and cannot do without others..."

"okay."

King Yue closed his eyes.

He was seriously injured and on the verge of death, and it was normal for him to be abandoned. A woman's hope is her husband. After her husband is gone, she still has a son. At this time, the son is of course more important.

He thought of Tian Guifei again.

Zhuang Shu only mentioned the concubine, not Concubine Tian, ​​and concubine Tian didn't take him seriously, she probably just showed affection, so she came over to have a look.After he died, she would still have the emperor and King Chang, wouldn't she?

I really didn't expect that for half of my life as a wise man, in the end, only Zhuang Shu was by my side.

The king of Yue County sighed.

At this time, shedding tears is a taboo, Zhuang Shu wiped her eyes and began to speak in a low voice.Because she was looking for something to say on purpose, her words were all over the place, illogical.

"Your Highness, just take care of your health. I have consulted the imperial doctor for your injury. As long as you wake up, I will take care of you so that you don't get a fever. You will be able to get out of bed in a few days..."

"Your Highness, my concubine is feeding you that bird. Its feathers are smooth and smooth, and it is very beautiful..."

"The plum blossoms in front of the hall are faint yellow and have no fragrance, but looking at the simplicity and elegance makes people feel very good..."

"Your Highness...why are those assassins only targeting you? Why don't they kill my concubine? I am willing to die for you...Please let them come after your concubine, please, let them come after your concubine, don't hurt Your Highness like this again... ..."

In the end, Zhuang Shu still couldn't hold back, and cried out tremblingly.

King Yue held Zhuang Shu's hand and patted it gently: "Don't cry, don't cry, I'm fine..."

That's right, he didn't know why these assassins identified him and rushed at him every time, regardless of whether there was anyone else beside him...

"His Royal Highness suffers so much... Does Your Majesty know?" Zhuang Shu's eyes were red, "Does Your Majesty know that the assassins are only targeting His Highness? Every...every time... Your Majesty is so capable, why don't...not... "

The next words were a bit embarrassing, Zhuang Shu didn't dare to say any more, she just cried.

King Yue had never thought deeply about this matter, but this time he was taken aback, only thought about it for a while, and his heart shivered.

Yes, mother concubine... you know?

The assassins targeted him again and again, once or twice is nothing, but so many times, isn't it a bit abnormal?The concubine mother is so smart, how could she not know?She knew...but didn't do anything about it.

The concubine mother probably gave up on him a long time ago. In the concubine's eyes, there is only the younger brother.

Before, she greeted her twice hypocritically, but now she doesn't even greet her, and she just watched her being assassinated... Concubine Mu, you must want him to die.

If he died, no one would block the way of King Chang.

The king of Yuejun was full of grief and anger, but he was seriously injured and couldn't move. He could only look at the pattern on the bed curtain every day, thinking about the past.

At this time, the situation in the court changed suddenly.

Originally, with the manpower arranged by the king of Yuejun and the strength of Hubu himself, several places would be able to force Emperor Taikang to punish King Chang, but for some reason, suddenly there was a speech for King Chang.

It is said that the king of Yuejun colluded with the Ministry of household, in order to wash the shit off his butt, and pull the innocent king Chang off.King Chang did some things, but he dared not accept the crime of 'rebellion'. Everything was fabricated and imagined by the Ministry of Household Affairs.King Chang just wanted to make some money.In order to make money, ordinary merchants also have to hoard goods, buy cheap and sell expensive, and pay the price difference. Why can't King Chang?Just because he is the prince, and because he has an older brother, he will never be the emperor, so should he be bullied like this?

Hubu couldn't withstand the firepower, King Yuejun was seriously injured, the situation slowly reversed, and soon, King Chang was able to walk around with his head held high.

King Yue vomited blood.

Zhuang Shu couldn't help crying: "Your Highness...they are trying to force His Highness to death...I'm not worth it for Your Highness...not worth it!"

King Yue's hand clenched tightly into a fist.

When the body is better and able to move, the king of Yuejun immediately makes arrangements.

Gather all the evidence obtained earlier, regardless of where it came from, and fabricate it if it is not enough... He saved enough papers to sentence King Chang to death, and sent it to Emperor Taikang.

He hit his head heavily on the ground, weeping blood.

"It's not that I'm not lenient, it's just that King Chang... I can't let him go wrong! Praising and killing is killing, father! In places you can't see, King Chang already has his own people, his own strength, The court has also gained contacts, otherwise why so many people speak for him? The son admitted that the son was a little cautious and made some moves, but if King Chang was really innocent, it would not be the current situation! The son can't look at the only younger brother It was raised and wasted!"

"My son knows that my father will be angry after reading this booklet, but knowing this, I will do it too. My son hopes for my brother's well-being, and wants to drag him back from the crooked way!"

Emperor Taikang was so angry that he immediately called King Chang to defend himself.

King Chang's brain is not enough, the first reaction is to hate the king of Yue, saying that the king of Yue deliberately made people speak for him in the upper court, and then he did this trick, and there was no one in the upper court!

Emperor Taikang laughed angrily: "Your brother has worked so hard to train people to become your people, to help you? Then turn against you?"

Is there something wrong?I'm not afraid that this person is confused and doesn't know who to talk to?

And looking at this book, thinking about the situation between North Korea and China, some people said...

Emperor Taikang is not blind, King Chang is really not as innocent as he imagined.

King Yue's kneeling face turned pale, and he smiled wryly: "Father is wise!"

The two brothers once again broke out in a fierce battle. They pretended to respect each other and cherish each other. The problems between them were not resolved at all. They still hated each other, and even wished each other to die!

In the end, a dagger fell out of someone's body. King Chang's eyes were red from the noise, and he lost his mind. He picked up the dagger and stabbed King Yuejun—

The king of Yuejun was seriously injured, so he naturally fell down and passed out.

Emperor Taikang kicked over the table angrily, and immediately called the imperial doctor to treat the wounded King Yuejun. At the same time, he ordered people to drag King Chang down to the prison, temporarily seize the king's title, and move him to be a bald prince. When did he reflect on it? Time to talk about titles!

It means that if he can't reflect on it, or if he is not satisfied, he will never want this title.

King Chang was dumbfounded. He was completely numb when he was imprisoned in Tiantian Prison.

Concubine Tian Gui really fainted this time.

She couldn't figure out why things had developed to such an extent that the two sons were fighting each other to the death and couldn't tolerate each other!

She protects the king of Yuejun, and the king of Yuejun thinks she is fake, she protects Prince Chang, and Prince Chang is sad, thinking that she is partial to his brother, because everything is given to him, so the only superficial concern is to coax him .

Who!

Who taught Prince Chang to think what he shouldn't?Who taught him!

She has clearly tried her best to choose candidates to avoid this situation...

And who instigated the king of Yuejun to be divorced from his younger brother, because he just refused to let his younger brother go?

……

The palace is in chaos, and the case outside the palace is still going on.

The little widow Gao Li doesn't understand politics, and doesn't care about the facts. She just wants to get in touch with officials on a larger scale and seduce them. What if she is hooked?

So no matter who came to ask questions, as long as they were officials, she would answer them well. The more people came, the more excited she was.No matter which direction others lead her to, she just goes along and says that the case is getting more and more complicated and difficult to solve.

Because some people favored the side, the facts of the case became more and more unfavorable to the Ministry of Household Affairs.

The Minister of the Household Department is almost graying with worry, and there is nowhere to ask for advice.The king of Yuejun, who was so well united before that he almost had to wear a pair of trousers, also rejected him, saying that he wanted to recuperate from his injuries.

Everyone is a smart person, who can't see the truth in this?

It is true that the king of Yuejun is recovering from his injuries, but it is also true that he does not want to care.

Hubu has been abandoned by the King of Yuejun.

It's too late to realize that no one is reliable.All thoughts of Hubu Shangshu were lost, and when he was walking home like a walking corpse, he ran into Prince Yang Xuan.

With the mentality of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor, he begged the prince.

Unexpectedly, the prince is really upright and domineering enough. After hearing the ins and outs, he said that he took care of this matter!He will keep the household department up and down!

Hubu Shangshu burst into tears directly, as if excited.

It turns out that there is still light in the turn of events.

There is always hope in the world, prince... such a prince has a sense of right and wrong, responsibility and responsibility, isn't he the one he wants to be loyal to!

……

The crown prince had already prepared everything, and even the evidence that the king of Yue had saved for the prince Chang had his hands in it, so how could he not know what happened next?

You have to come, but not too fast, take it little by little, slowly.

Does this show his ability!

By the way, he also teamed up with Longwei to make a small game to let everyone know that the King of Yue quietly started to deal with Prince Chang who was tormenting the prison.

Although the sky prison is strict, it is not so strict to the prince.

Everyone guess, how many days can King Chang last?

Yang Xuan crossed his arms and sneered, but he didn't believe it. If the news got out, that old Turkic dog could still sit still!

Concubine Tian Gui also began to feel restless, and all signs indicated that she was about to move...

Cui house.

Everyone met again.

The rosy color in Xiang Ling's eyes deepened, he straightened the corners of his clothes slowly, and said with a smile, "It's up to me."
