I have a book to play

Sun House.

Concubine Xian Pei Xu got out of the carriage.

The concierges are all old people in the mansion, so they naturally recognize this concubine from the Pei family.It's just that we haven't seen each other for many years, and when we saw each other again, I was somewhat surprised.

Sun Peng had just returned home, and before he even had time to drink some hot tea to warm his stomach, he heard the news of Concubine Xian's visit.He came out from the yard and came to the front. It was quiet in front of the house, and everyone stood there without saying a word.

He looked at Concubine Xian standing under the eaves, sighed slightly, and walked along the corridor.

He was wearing a loose cloak that he had pulled before going out, so thin that he looked as if he could be blown away by a gust of wind.

Concubine Xian stood motionless under the eaves, she didn't move her feet until he approached, then she bent down towards Sun Peng under the surprised eyes of everyone.

"Yu'er is still young, so please ask Qilang to plead for Yu'er for the sake of old friends of the Sun and Pei families."

A wind blew right at this time, and Sun Peng shrank his neck so much that most of his face was buried in the cloak.Gou Qi hurriedly handed over the small heater from the side: "Your Majesty, why not come in..."

"Yu'er made a big mistake, but no matter what, Yu'er is Chen'er's direct brother. Brotherly killing is the most taboo..."

Sun Peng's fingers were stiff from the cold, and he covered it for a while, finally feeling better.

He looked at Concubine Xian, and said: "But the Third Highness wants to kill his father and brother."

Concubine Xian was about to continue when she frowned when she heard Sun Peng's words, and said: "The Third Highness did not do such a disregard for human relations!"

Sun Peng nodded: "Well, he hasn't done it yet. But he has this plan."

Concubine Xian pursed her lips tightly: "No matter what, Yu'er is still young..."

Sun Peng said in a low voice: "The Third Highness is not young. I heard that the Queen and Concubine Xian have long been choosing concubines for the Third Highness. Even my Balang knows what he should and should not do."

The whole capital knows that Sun Jiabalang is a fool.Comparing Xie Yu and Sun Balang, Concubine Xian was angry and annoyed: "Sun Qilang, you—"

"Concubine Xian, instead of coming to look for Qilang at this time, it's better to go back to the palace to see how the situation is!" Mrs. Sun suddenly strode forward, followed by several daughters-in-law of the Sun family, all glaring at Concubine Xian.

"Old lady," Concubine Xian restrained her expression and lowered her eyes, "Since the Sun and Pei families are old friends, why don't you even want to help with such a simple sentence?"

The old lady Sun laughed angrily, and stopped her daughter-in-law who was about to come forward in annoyance: "If it weren't for the fact that the Sun and Pei families are old friends, the concubine Xian really thought that she would be able to stand in the Sun's residence and embarrass my Sun family." offspring?"

Concubine Xian concluded.How could she not know this? That's why she dared to stand here and blatantly asked Sun Peng for help.

As the Pei family, it is impossible for her not to know what the Sun family has done for the Pei family these years.But Yu'er was the child she watched grow up with her own eyes, after all, he was of the Pei family's blood...

"Young lady, go back to the palace." Sun Peng lazily raised his eyelids. The fur collar of his cloak made his face thin and small. How can the imperial censor make decisions on behalf of His Highness?"

Concubine Xian gritted her teeth, in the end she still left the Sun Mansion and set foot on the way back to the palace.

Sun Peng personally sent people out, and when he turned around, he found that Balang and Xu Yuxiu were closely following behind him, and he stretched out his arms to hug them.

"Go back to the house. Before the elders agree, you are not allowed to go out on the street at will."

If things in the palace are not stable, the capital will be unstable.He dared not put the people around him in danger, not at all.

Concubine Xian really returned to the palace.

The guards at the gate of the palace did not dare to let the carriage in and out at will.Even if this carriage has a waist card for concubines in and out of the harem.But now the gatekeepers are all people who obey Xie Chen's orders. When they see this badge, they immediately detain it and send another person into the palace to report to His Highness.

After Xie Chen learned about it, he ordered people to lead Concubine Xian to Sixiang Palace.Empress Yuan had just taken the medicine and fell asleep, Xie Chen sat on the side and watched, and waited for Concubine Xian to enter the bedroom before raising her head and saying: "Auntie is here."

"Chen'er, where did Yu'er go? Your mother and concubine are not in good health now, and as a son, Yu'er should serve by your side." Concubine Xian held the teacup without moving for a long time, listening to Empress Yuan's slow breathing, said in a low voice , "Please forgive him this time, after all, he is young and doesn't understand things. What's more, it doesn't make any difference whether you sit or he sits in the crown prince..."

Xie Chen paused, then asked: "Young? Auntie thinks, as a prince, how old is not considered young? He has already learned how to obey the law and how to kill his father and brother, but how did he become an old man in the end?" Still young?"

Concubine Xian shook her head: "Yu'er was just deceived by others and believed the words of the empress and monk Shuling. My aunt promises that as long as he lives well, my aunt will definitely persuade him not to think about the crown prince. After all, your father only has three sons." Son, the second prince is gone, if there is no more Yu'er, I'm afraid your father will not be able to bear the Eucharist for a while."

Xie Chen took a sip of tea, and said in a low voice: "Being deceived? It was because of his aunt's protection that he developed his current temperament. Queen Wang would raise him from the beginning. After all, how could it be his turn to get the support of the royal family and get these soldiers."

Concubine Xian sighed: "Auntie knows that you are not feeling well. Your mother and concubine's health has not been very good since the birth of Yu'er, and now it is the time when she is dying. Everyone knows that she may not be able to survive this winter. You should bypass Yu'er for the sake of your mother and concubine."

Xie Chen looked over with a half-smile: "Auntie, Gu is also the son of my mother's concubine. The eldest son of the direct relative. The relationship between Gu and the Pei family is closer. Shouldn't my aunt think more about Gu?"

Concubine Xian bit her lips: "You are the eldest son, but because of this, you should take care of your younger brother..."

"Xie Yu made a big mistake. The real powerful person is the father, not the orphan. Auntie, you asked the wrong person."

Concubine Xian wanted to say more, but Xie Chen stood up unceremoniously: "Come here!"

"Your Highness."

"Send Concubine Xian to see Your Majesty." He said coldly with a sullen face, "Your Majesty must really want to see Concubine Xian. By the way, how did Concubine Xian escape from the heavily guarded forbidden palace?"

*****

Xie Chen stayed in the palace for a full six or seven days.In the first few days, Sun Peng was busy outside the palace, but after hearing that the situation in the palace had improved a lot, he entered the palace and became Xie Chen's assistant.

Emperor Xihe was somewhat displeased when he learned that he had been recalled to Beijing without being summoned, but in the eyes of Emperor Xihe, there were only a few people around Xie Chen who could be of use to him.Even the soldiers and horses brought back to Beijing for rescue this time are nothing more than secondments.

That being the case, a called supervisory censor is irrelevant.

A few days later, Xie Yu's execution for treason finally came out.

If this matter hadn't caused too much trouble and plunged himself into the most taboo thing of Emperor Xihe, Xie Yu would have been left behind.At most, it's just a circle, or taking away the status of the prince and demoting him to a commoner.

Xie Zhang is only one step away from becoming a commoner.But that way, maybe there is still a life left.

It's a pity that he didn't have time, so he finally died at the hands of his half-brother who he always looked down upon.

Xie Yu's case involved a lot. The Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple executed more than [-] people. Even Zongzheng Temple also dealt with several relatives of the emperor who were inseparable from the matter.At this point, all the available people around Xie Yu have been dug out.

Whether it was on the surface or in the dark, everything was completely wiped out, and there was absolutely no possibility of recovery.

Many of the soldiers who followed Xie Yu to force the palace were dismissed from their posts and reprimanded after being thoroughly investigated for forming cliques for personal gain, and many of them even lost their lives because of this.

Xie Yu's case was personally supervised by Emperor Xihe and the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple to coordinate the investigation, and no one dared to falsify it.

Even so, Emperor Xihe still couldn't get rid of his anger, and even after the concubine Xian repeatedly pleaded for Xie Yu, he punished several generals in the army who had close contacts with him and Wang Youzhi to exterminate the nine clans.

For a time, everyone in the capital was in danger.

Although the canonization ceremony has not yet been held, and the ancestor worship has not been announced to the world, but everyone in the court knows that their new crown prince has appeared.

Xie Chen has been living in the East Palace these days, and Sun Peng also stayed in the East Palace.After coming and going, some palace people began to test whether to rearrange the decoration of the East Palace.

But Xie Chen didn't show the slightest expression that he was about to become the prince, it seemed that he was really just making excuses.

On this day, Concubine Xian was sent out of the East Palace after meeting Xie Chen.

Sun Peng came out from behind the screen in the study: "Concubine Xian hasn't given up yet?"

"I can't help but she won't give up." Xie Chen looked back, kissed Sun Peng's earlobe, and said lightly, "Xie Yu's case has been settled, even if my aunt wants to save him, there is nothing she can do. After all, the imperial father wants to execute Xie Yu's imperial decree , it's already down."

Hearing this, Sun Peng couldn't help thinking of the scene he saw when he went to the prison not long ago and met Xie Yu.The little prince who was raised by the queen, although he was not favored in the first few years and looked a little timid, he still carried the pride and pride of the royal family.

Now sitting in the sky prison, the suffering is only one-tenth of that of ordinary people, but his cheeks are sunken, his eyes are dull, and it is difficult to see a single point of expression.

"Concubine Xian still said the same thing?"

Xie Chen nodded slightly: "Yes. She said, no matter what, this seat has finally returned to my hands. Xie Zhang has already died, the only brother. I should be more magnanimous, keep him and treat him kindly."

Sun Peng seemed to have heard a big joke, he opened his eyes and looked at Xie Chen in disbelief.

Xie Chen was amused by his expression, lowered his head and nibbled the tip of his nose and said, "I'm not intolerant. If he hadn't forced me to go to Jingming Temple and take the lives of all the monks in the temple to write me to commit suicide, I wouldn't have had the chance to live again." In the first life, I finally caught you. In this life, as long as he is honest and respects and fears me dutifully, I will not treat him badly. Unfortunately, he is still the same as before, even more impulsive and naive than back then. "

Sun Peng knew that although Xie Chen said these words, it was not without regret for Xie Yu in his heart.Xie Yu will have all kinds of things today, in fact, they are all inseparable from what Emperor Xihe and the Wang family did back then.

"Would you like to be the prince?" Sun Peng didn't know, King Jing had asked similar questions, and so had Pei Chu.He just took advantage of Xie Yu's incident and suddenly realized that it seems that only Xie Chen is left who can inherit the great power.

Xie Chen smiled softly, and the words soaked in the lips that leaned over to kiss: "You, do you want to be a queen?"
