Those Years In Quest Of Honor Mine

In the palace, Xuan Qiong has been under house arrest for five full days.

Concubine Yu was very anxious.

Five days ago, Yu She went to the palace and didn't know what he said to Emperor Chong'an. After he left, Emperor Chong'an immediately uploaded Xuan Qiong, repelling everyone and closing the palace door. Less than half an hour later, Emperor Chong'an ordered Xuan Qiong to be placed under house arrest. No one is allowed to visit.

Concubine Yu's three souls and six spirits were half scared, before she had time to send a message to King Yu, Emperor Chong'an made another decree and recognized Yu She back with great fanfare.

Concubine Yu fainted immediately.

These few days, Concubine Yu lived like years.

Although the emperor did not put her under house arrest, he asked the palace servants to pass on a message to her, saying that Xuan Qiong's words were innocent, and that the house arrest was just to teach her a small lesson, and no more punishment would be imposed. Before Concubine Yu could breathe a sigh of relief, The palace man who delivered the oral order said to Concubine Yu gently: "The emperor asked His Highness the Fifth Highness to think about the past, and when His Highness figured it out and corrected it, it would be fine. What I'm afraid of right now is a side issue. The Emperor didn't reprimand the empress. Also please be patient, don't visit, don't plead on behalf of His Highness, and it's best...don't entrust others to intercede on His Highness' behalf."

Concubine Yu was terrified, she knew in her heart that this "other" was probably talking about King Yu.

Concubine Yu has no master. I don't know if this is what Emperor Chong'an meant. He hurriedly ordered someone to give the palace man a silver ticket. The palace man accepted it calmly, and his voice was even softer. Some people are not reconciled and are thinking of other ways.”

Concubine Yu lost her voice: "Is house arrest not enough? What else?"

The palace man shook his head: "Then I don't know, but since the emperor forbids the empress to visit and intercede, then there is nothing I can do, can't I? Please be patient for a while, the empress, maybe now he has his wish and is willing to let others go." Woolen cloth?"

Concubine Yu's face changed angrily, "Yu, pardon."

The palace people withdrew.

Concubine Yu is restless, Yu She has now been recognized by Emperor Chong'an, and is about to be crowned king someday. He has come to this point, will he let Xuan Qiong go?

impossible.

Concubine Yu wanted to pretend to be sick and spread the news that Yu Mucheng had come to the palace, but when she thought about the words of the palace servants just now, she was afraid of getting burned and did not dare to offend Emperor Chong'an.

She had never had any ideas herself, and after thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't think of any good solution. After a while, she suddenly said, "By the way, go..."

Concubine Yu's voice trembled, "Go and call Tang Qin!"

However, after more than a month, Tang Qin has aged a lot.

Concubine Yu said impatiently, "Brother, what did someone tell you? Is he avoiding suspicion now? He dare not enter the palace?"

Tang Qin had just received Yu She's instruction, and now he felt as if he had eaten a fly.

Tang Qin didn't want to work for Yu She, but Yu She handed him the handle of the knife to overturn the old case.

He had wanted this knife for a long time, but when he thought that it was Yu She's intention, he couldn't help feeling frustrated.

Tang Qin's eyes were cloudy, and he thought of his own brother who was trapped in Yu She's hands. He sighed and said in a hoarse voice, "Go back to your mother, the prince has not sent any news to the servant."

Concubine Yu's eyes were full of resentment, "Is he also thinking of getting rid of the relationship?!"

Tang Qin spoke very slowly, "Madam, the emperor has recognized young prince Yu back, the overall situation is about to be settled, everyone wants to protect themselves at this moment, besides... I am afraid it will be useless to ask for mercy, Princess An also entered the palace before. Did you come to intercede? The emperor always respects the eldest princess, but this time he didn't even see her, which made the eldest princess lose face a lot, and the prince is afraid that it will be the same."

"This couple..." Concubine Yu glared and gritted her teeth, "I'm afraid they want to change the rudder temporarily? Yes, Yu She was raised by them after all. Even if the relationship is lost, he may not be unfilial in the future." Punish them with bad reputation, but what about me and Xuan Qiong?"

Tang Qin listened quietly, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty can only save herself now."

Concubine Yu said anxiously: "What can I do?!"

Tang Qin said slowly, "The emperor's decree says that the young prince Yu was born to a woman from a good family in the emperor's and princess's residence."

Concubine Yu frowned, "You mean..."

Tang Qin said: "This is the emperor's heart disease. As long as the old things are brought out, the holy majesty will try to cover it up. The mother and child are one. If you want to suppress the matter of the little concubine Zhong, you have to suppress the matter of promoting the young prince Yu. ...It depends on how the Holy Majesty weighs it, if the Holy Majesty wants face, he has to wrong Young Prince Yu."

Concubine Yu was terrified, "What if the emperor tries to lose face and wants to establish Concubine Zhong's son?"

Tang Qin paused, and said, "Then we can only see the tricks. At that time, the empress can make a fuss about Prince Yu's life experience. Concubine Zhong is the concubine of the former emperor. The son born in her belly is the biological father. Who...how can I tell?"

"Yes, if the emperor insists on setting him up, he can still make a fuss about his life experience, but..." Concubine Yu was confused, "I can't stand out, who can expose this matter?"

Tang Qin said in a low voice, "The old slave still has contact with some of King Yu's early cronies, and I can ask them to help."

Concubine Yu quickly shook her head: "No, if the emperor finds out, won't elder brother be involved?"

Tang Qin sighed: "Madam, it seems that the prince wants to be wise and protect himself, or to stand on the side of young prince Yu? If you don't pull him now, when will you wait?"

Concubine Yu was in a daze, and after a while she became ruthless, "Yes, he doesn't want to help me, and I have to force him to help me... This alone is not enough, you also let me know in the palace, they want to hide it... ...I just want everyone to know."

The very unbearable secrets of the royal family were blown up inside and outside the palace at the same time.

Emperor Chong'an, who hadn't shown up at the court meeting for many days, was supposed to go to court today, but after hearing the news, he temporarily avoided the early court.

By mistake, Yu She happened to miss today's court meeting, and the courtiers acquiesced that Yu She was avoiding suspicion, and at the same time believed the rumors that his biological mother was Concubine Xiao Zhong.

After the court meeting, the clan and Yu Shitai launched an attack together. Among them were those who were left by Shi Jin to Zhong Wan, those who were arranged by Yu She, and many of them had conflicts of interest with Xuan Jing and Xuan Qiong. Everyone seemed to have made an agreement Usually, the papers are sent to the cabinet like snowflakes, the contents are similar, and they all question Yu She's background.

There were quite a few people who spoke out, but there were no cronies from Prince Yu's family.

Emperor Chong'an looked at Shan Gao's folded book with gloomy eyes, "King Yu's people didn't make any trouble this time."

The eunuch who served the pen and ink for Emperor Chong'an said softly: "My lord is loyal and sensible, so naturally he won't listen to the wind and the rain."

"But why... have someone investigate, and it seems that the news came from Yu Wang's mansion?" Emperor Chong'an turned blue, "A few days ago, Qiong'er was ignorant and went to investigate the old things. I asked him, is it right? Hearing what his uncle said, Qiong'er killed her, didn't she, huh."

Emperor Chong'an said in a low voice, "Qiong'er would rather be under house arrest than to confess his uncle. This is to value uncle more than emperor father..."

The murderous intent flashed in Emperor Chong'an's eyes, and the eunuch was silent as if to answer, not daring to answer.

Emperor Chong'an asked, "Is there any other movement on King Yu's side?"

The school secretary and eunuch shook his head, "After the early court, King Yu himself did not enter the palace, but he asked the palace people to pay his respects to Concubine Yu, and in a hurry, asked the empress to urge His Highness Fifth to meditate on his past, and advised the empress to shut the door and reflect on herself. Listen to the rumours."

The eunuch said softly: "Prince Yu's mansion is a little flustered, it seems... really ignorant."

"So, I don't believe it even more." Emperor Chong'an sneered when he heard the words, "It's fine for the clan to intervene in matters of the Tian family. Why are these people and courtiers following suit? Who can believe that no one is behind the scenes?"

Emperor Chong'an folded the book in his hand and threw it on the ground, "It's nonsense, there's nothing to say."

The school book eunuch picked up the books on the ground and asked softly, "Don't approve?"

"No." Emperor Chong'an said wearily, "Tell the cabinet ministers that no reply will be granted, and people will find out who is stirring up trouble and spreading rumors."

The eunuch agreed, and Emperor Chong'an raised his head, "Where's Ziyou? Didn't he enter the palace today?"

The eunuch shook his head, "I complained about my illness, I asked carefully, and I said yes, I said yes..."

Emperor Chong'an frowned, "Could it be that he knew in advance that someone was causing trouble?"

"No, no." The eunuch hurriedly said, "It is said that the young master Zhong in the house is suffering from some minor illness, so Young Master Yu was...stuck."

Emperor Chong'an couldn't laugh or cry, "Ziyou."

The eunuch pondered Emperor Chong'an's mind, and said in a low voice: "Young Master Yu seems to have spent too much time on that Young Master Zhong these days, is it true that the Emperor..."

Emperor Chong'an pondered for a moment, then shook his head, "Forget it, let him make trouble, a man, what kind of tricks can he do? I won't be such a villain."

The eunuch lowered his voice: "But Young Master Zhong... After all, he is from Zhong's family."

The smile on Emperor Chong'an's face faded, "It is because he is from the Zhong family that I tolerate him."

The eunuch frowned, and suddenly realized, "Yes, the more Young Master Yu cares about Young Master Zhong, the more he wants to hide the past for His Majesty! Otherwise, let Young Master Zhong know why the Zhong family was wiped out, and we must break up with him..."

Emperor Chong'an frowned, and the eunuch hurriedly kept silent.

After a long while, the eunuch said softly: "Your majesty is wise, before this servant was curious about how the emperor indulged in this matter, now it seems that it is very good to restrain young prince Yu in such a way."

"This child, Ziyou, is easy to ignore his temper." Emperor Chong'an sighed, "It's also a bad fate."

"Recently, I have wronged Ziyou." Emperor Chong'an rubbed his forehead, "Go...reward him with something, and tell him by the way that he has nothing to do and come to the palace to pay his respects. The more rumors there are outside, the less he should care , or is it because I have a guilty conscience? There are more."

"Just ask, if Zhong Wan is in good health, let him come too. Last time I told him to enter the palace, Ziyou stopped him. Now let them come together, shouldn't he be stopped? I'm afraid he doesn't have the intention... ..."

Emperor Chong'an frowned, "Ziyou won't be troubled by such words."

In the other courtyard of Prince Yu's Mansion, Yu She was really troubled.

Zhong Wan has been miserable since early in the morning.

"If I were a woman, do you know what this would be like?" Zhong Wan said bitterly, "You just poured me a pot of safflower! I can't get pregnant again, what are you doing?" So poisonous?"

Yu She said nice words, "I'm doing it for your own good..."

Zhong Wan collapsed: "For my own good, you castrated me?"

Yu She was helpless, "Where did you get castrated? It's just a little medicine to clear the heart..."

"Then why do I have to take this heart-cleaning medicine?" The more Zhong Wan thought about it, the more frightened she became, "Ziyou, I really don't understand sometimes, why are you so troublesome? There are only the two of us in this house, and you can actually spend your days Life is more complicated than the harem, isn't it true that some concubine made this food for other concubines in order to compete for favor?"

Yu She didn't understand, so: "What are you talking about? What concubine?"

Zhong Wan couldn't understand, "Or do you think I'm too idle? Afraid that I'm bored to recuperate, and there is no concubine in the house, so you will fight with me?"

Yu She was completely dumbfounded, and hurriedly explained, "I just want you to calm down..."

"Why should I be calm?" Zhong Wan looked at Yu She vigilantly, "I'm worried now, one night you shaved my head while I was asleep and forced me to become a monk."

"Why should I shave your head properly?" Yu She said patiently, "There is a big commotion in the imperial court today, we have been planning for a few days, and today there will be trouble, and I still want to go to the palace, you drink the medicine obediently I'm leaving."

Zhong Wan shrinks aside, "I don't."

Yu She frowned, "You..."

Zhong Wan cautiously asked, "Will someone pry my mouth open and pour me out?"

Zhong Wan was hopeful, "Or you feed me mouth to mouth?"

Yu She wanted to, but he was afraid that Zhong Wan would get angry again, so he could only say, "Forget it, don't drink if you don't want to drink, I'll go first, you should rest well."

Zhong Wan didn't know why and lay back on the bed, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Yu She was baffled, and after a while, Steward Feng came over with a scroll in his hands.

Zhong Wan stood up, "What's wrong?"

Butler Feng hurriedly said: "Before the son left, he went to the study to write the words for the young master, and asked the young master to hang it by the bedside and read it every day."

Zhong Wan smiled, this lunatic finally knew that he was sorry for himself, and also knew how to write love poems to himself to make himself happy?

but……

Zhong Wan looked at the picture scroll in Steward Feng's arms and frowned slightly, just writing a piece of letter paper, why is it so big?

Before Zhong Wan could take it, Steward Feng unfolded the huge scroll with a clatter. On the scroll, there were six large characters written in Yu She's vigorous strokes.

"Preserve the principles of nature and destroy human desires."

Zhong Wan: "..."

Chapter 82 The disheartened heart that was blown by the night wind in the chest was instantly warmed up.

Emperor Chong'an was suspicious of Yu Mucheng. While suppressing the rumors, he ordered people to investigate secretly. After several rounds of investigation, several clues pointed to Yu Wangfu.

The more suspicious Emperor Chong'an was, the less likely he was to be held accountable in person. Yu Mucheng couldn't open his mouth even if he wanted to defend himself.

Naturally, Yu Mucheng would not wait to die. At first, he suspected that Yu She was going to die together. After two days of investigation, he found something tricky from Princess Anguo's mansion. Before he could question Princess Anguo, the people below found out again. Came out of Concubine Yu's Palace.

Yu Mucheng immediately wanted to kill Concubine Yu.

"The emperor didn't really believe in Yu She at all, and he was still hesitating in keeping His Highness the Fifth Highness!"

In Concubine Yu's palace, Yu Mucheng tried his best to suppress his temper, his voice was trembling, "The outcome is still uncertain, everything will turn around, what are you going to do? What are you in a hurry for?!"

Rumors abounded in the palace, and Emperor Chong'an postponed the matter of granting Yu She the king on the pretext that he had not yet selected an auspicious day. Concubine Yu thought it was her own credit, and her waist became stiffer. She also blamed Yu Mucheng, thinking that My elder brother's position was erratic, and upon hearing the words, he said indifferently: "Why am I anxious? Now I'm afraid I'm the only one who is worried about Qiong'er? If I don't do anything, Qiong'er may die and no one will care about her."

Yu Mucheng laughed, "Are you helping His Highness Fifth?"

"Isn't it?" Concubine Yu sneered, "If the emperor has the ability, he will continue to praise that bastard! If the emperor dares to crown him king, I will continue to make trouble. The rumors will only become more and more ugly. I want to know, the emperor has heard too much Rumors, would you like to take another look at that bastard?"

"Do you think you are letting the emperor and Yu She separate?" Yu Mucheng couldn't believe it, "You just drove them into the same boat! Why don't you understand until now, even if you want to expose the events of the past, you shouldn't It’s like this! What do you mean by holding on to the identity of Yu She’s biological mother? Even if everyone else believes it, his biological mother is indeed the little Concubine Zhong from the previous dynasty, so what? Isn’t he still the emperor’s son? Are you pouring dirty water on Yu She, or on the emperor?!"

Concubine Yu was taken aback, and said stubbornly, "What's the difference?! His background is not clean, isn't it a stain on his body?"

Yu Mucheng fell down on the chair angrily, he had already arranged for the old palace servants who had served Xiao Zhongfei to enter the capital, just to wait and see.He has been with Emperor Chong'an for decades, and he understands that person's thoughts better than anyone else. He knows that he hasn't made up his mind yet, and he just wants to keep this trump card. Come out, and then point the spearhead at Yu She's biological father, making the clan and courtiers suspect that Yu She is the son of Concubine Xiao Zhong having an affair with others, using the former palace man as the knife, and using the heart-killing rumors as the blade, he hit the target with one blow , killing Yu She was unexpected.

But now... Yu Mucheng looked at Concubine Yu in despair. The knife he had forged for many years and was just waiting to be inserted into Yu She's heart was snatched away by Concubine Yu early on and slashed on Yu She's hand. It didn't hurt or itch.

Yu Mucheng's self-cultivation is pretty good, all internal organs were moved by anger, and he did not speak harshly to Concubine Yu, he supported his heart and said slowly: "I am not in a hurry, it's not because I don't worry about His Highness the Fifth Highness, nor because I want to turn my head around and support Concubine Yu." She, but it's not the time... Do you think Yu She is really standing so firmly?"

"He doesn't respect the emperor in his heart. How long can he pretend to be a filial son? Well, let's not talk about whether he can coax the emperor. Isn't he himself a trouble?"

"A few years ago, he hurt his heart by eating cold food powder, and he would get sick from time to time. It's just that he hid himself well. Let's make him unable to hide it! Is it difficult?"

"There is also the matter of his broken sleeve. The emperor turns a blind eye. Well, you can let it go for now."

"But what about the fact that he still refuses to get married at such an age? Last time the emperor wanted to give a concubine, but he made an untenable excuse to refuse it. The emperor is already unhappy, so can't it be a fuss?"

Yu Mucheng was extremely exhausted, "There are so many handles on him, you can't pick which one to attack at will, why do you have to do this in advance?"

Concubine Yu's stupidity made people angry, "Brother said it so clearly, so naturally he also knows that the things about his life experience are the most powerful. If I want to destroy him, I naturally have to pick the sharpest knife."

Yu Mucheng couldn't wait to yell, you used my knife ahead of time!

Yu Mucheng suddenly lost his strength and didn't want to say a word to Concubine Yu.

He looked at his stubborn and stupid younger sister, and suddenly thought disheartenedly, he had put all his energy into thinking, and now he was risking offending Emperor Chong'an to support Xuan Qiong to his death, and the future would really go well, and then what?

My younger sister is already suspicious of me now, and refuses to follow my arrangement, what will happen when she becomes the Empress Dowager?Concubine Yu is young, so she will definitely be involved in politics in the future.

Power is not terrible, but the most terrible thing is when stupid people hold power.

Yu Mucheng thought anxiously, what's more frightening is that Xuan Qiong and Concubine Yu are similar.

Yu Mucheng couldn't help thinking of Xuan Rui who had been sent out of Beijing by Yu She.

Originally, Yu Mucheng only used him as a last resort, but just now, Yu Mucheng didn't feel that he was really useful to Xuan Rui that day.

My own nephew is still there, so it's not the turn of that idiot.

But looking at Concubine Yu at this moment, Yu Mucheng suddenly hesitated.

Although Xuanrui is not related to him, at least he doesn't have a stupid mother who loves to point fingers.

Yu Mucheng's heart was turned upside down, his face remained calm, he sighed, "Okay, since you've already made your move, I won't say anything else, only one thing, big brother, please, stop staring at Yu She's biological mother The emperor is on alert, and you will be found out soon, aren't you afraid?"

Concubine Yu moved her eyes and looked away anxiously.

"Today, I tried my best to make the emperor suspicious and came to see you, not to argue with you." Yu Mu said sincerely, "You can't sit still, you have to do something, that's fine, you can take care of Yu She's other problems go, okay?"

Concubine Yu thought for a moment, then nodded unwillingly, "Got it."

Yu Mucheng leaned on the chair slightly tired and stood up, smiled wryly and left.

Concubine Yu sat by herself for a long time, chewing over and over again what Yu Mucheng said just now, and after a while, she called her confidant in the palace to come over.

"Brother just said..." Concubine Yu said softly, "The emperor wanted to give Yu She a concubine last time, but he resigned and made the emperor unhappy. Do you know how he resigned?"

The confidant said in a low voice.

Concubine Yu said disgustedly, "A bastard is a bastard, flirting with a man, it's fine if he doesn't feel disgusted, and dare to tell the emperor."

Concubine Yu thought for a moment, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, "Brother is right."

Gong Ren said: "What?"

"Everything should not go against the emperor's thoughts, it will only push the emperor further and further away." Concubine Yu said softly, "The emperor wants Yu She to take a concubine, doesn't he?"

The palace man murmured, "Yes."

Concubine Yu said softly, "That's right, you want to meet the emperor's wishes, but also create trouble for Yu She, what do you think is the best way?"

The palace man laughed dryly, "Your Majesty, even if you are taking a concubine for Prince Yu, that is not something your Majesty can control."

Concubine Yu smiled: "Of course I don't want to take care of it, let's go... to pay the queen well."

The palace man still felt that it was not very good, "Your Majesty, did you do it on purpose?"

"Don't worry, I won't give it to him in a daze, and I'm not stupid." Concubine Yu said in a low voice, "I'll ask the queen to give Qiong'er one first, and say that the child is not taken care of now. As for Yu She He asked the empress to send her to the imperial court, saying that he had chosen two good girls, one for Qionger, and one for Yu She along the way."

"The emperor wanted to take a concubine for Yu She, he must be willing." Concubine Yu sneered, "Isn't Yu She unwilling to take a concubine? I have to give him one."

In the other hospital of Prince Yu's Mansion, the fever had completely subsided, and Zhong Wan, who had almost recovered from his illness, suddenly became a little restless.

Zhong Wan looked at the picture scroll hanging by the bed, dumbfounded.

Since hanging up this picture scroll that day, Yu She hasn't been intimate with him for several days.

Butler Feng was always afraid that Zhong Wan would quarrel with Yu She, so he would come to talk about it when he had nothing to do, "I really don't blame the prince, it's the imperial doctor who said you are not well."

Zhong Wan lifted her forehead hair, looked at the wound on her forehead in front of the bronze mirror, and sighed, "Okay, I don't blame him, you really don't have to tell me that I can't do it several times a day, if you are a man, you don't want to." Listen to this..."

Butler Feng laughed dryly: "Aren't you afraid that the young master will misunderstand the son's intentions? The young master doesn't know that the prince is so busy these days, and he doesn't forget to call the imperial physician over every day when he returns home. Let me ask you what medicine you took today. Is it better... how much it hurts you."

Zhong Wan licked his lips and smiled lightly, "Okay, then I will love him too."

At the same time, in the cabinet, Yu She received the news, sneered and did not speak.

The little eunuch who followed Yu She into the palace looked around, didn't dare to speak loudly, and lowered his voice: "My lord, the emperor has also seen the person selected by the empress, so I asked my lord to take it with me when I return home, what should I do? "

"There's nothing to do." Yu She lowered his head to read the book, "Just don't."

The little eunuch said awkwardly, "Why... why don't you want it? The emperor has already opened his mouth, so let the carriage follow us back."

Yu She didn't raise his head, "Boom down."

"Boom?" The little eunuch was taken aback, "How dare the slaves?"

Yu She didn't care anymore.

The little eunuch suffered so much that he retreated in a dilemma.

Yu She knew in his heart that Emperor Chong'an would not tear himself apart because of such a trivial matter, at most it was just to get angry again, and he would not force himself to do anything.

The most, the most, is that Emperor Chong'an was unhappy, and it didn't matter if he beat himself with other things.

As long as you don't take concubines, you can talk about anything else.

Yu She was very confident, until he came out of the cabinet at night, and saw from a distance that there were twice as many servants next to his car than before.

Yu She's expression changed instantly.

Emperor Chong'an did not budge this time.

Yu She's eyes were cold, and he looked at the lantern hanging on his car from a distance, feeling an uncontrollable panic in his heart.

I insist on this point, why can't these people always let it go?

Yu She stood straight in front of the carriage with a frightening complexion.

"Go back to the palace." Yu She said coldly, "Where did I come from, where will I send her back."

Yu She pulled the reins by himself, and opened the car curtain...

In the carriage, Zhong Wan was wrapped in a blanket, leaning against the window, sleeping soundly.

Yu She was stunned.

Zhong Wan...how did he come here?

Where is the concubine?Was it Zhong Wan who sent people away?

Then he changed his concubine and lay here and waited?

Yu She couldn't hold back, and laughed.

Yu She got into the carriage, looked down at Zhong Wan's sleeping face, and suddenly understood the thoughts of others who like to take concubines without a teacher.

If it is such a concubine, it can be accepted.

Yu She looked at Zhong Wan, the disheartened heart in his chest that was blown by the night wind instantly warmed up.
