[Red House] How to escape from a broken ship
Chapter 109
"What will happen to the Rongfu this time?" Daiyu sent Jia Fei to look at his younger brother, and personally delivered the clothes to Jia Yan in the bathroom.
Jia Yan was lying in the hot water so comfortable that she didn't want to talk, but the daughter-in-law's questions always had to be answered: "Well, it's best to cut the title, I guess the father-in-law will persuade the two masters to write a letter to depose the title, saying that he is a vegetarian, I am so mediocre that I have humiliated my ancestors, I beg Your Majesty to cut the title of the Jia family."
"Well, I don't think the two uncles will agree, and I'm afraid the old lady won't be happy." Daiyu still has a clear understanding of the people in the Rong Mansion: "Besides, there is Ning Mansion, although it is divided. Yes, it can break the bones and connect the tendons."
Jia Yan's voice was also a little blurred in the water mist: "Then there is no other way, just let it be fate, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to pass the test if His Majesty orders you to do it."
"Princess Xianyang told me that Zhongshun Wang Situyan has frequently entered the palace in recent days, and I don't know what he said to His Majesty." Daiyu is worried about this: "I am worried that he will swear at His Majesty. Don't forget, he But it’s not pleasing to see our family.”
"Don't worry, don't worry, You Nian," Jia Yan said slowly, leaning on the bathtub, "Your Majesty is not confused. If Situ Yan wants to curry favor and use His Majesty, it depends on whether His Majesty is willing to let him use him." And people like Situ Kuo, How could you be willing to let him take advantage of it, what a joke!
The young couple reunited after a long absence, so they naturally wanted to talk about their farewell, and all irrelevant people were dismissed.The water in the tub splashed all over the floor, and they didn't know what they were doing, they were enjoying life anyway.
It's just difficult for Lin Hai and Jia Min, the old couple is dealing with two uncles, in fact, Lin Hai only has two sentences from the beginning to the end: "Yan'er was summoned by His Majesty and has not returned." Jue, my uncle wrote a letter saying that you sent brother Lian to Ping'an Prefecture, but he didn't know."
"Then what about my life!" Jia Amnesty exploded without accident, "Besides, how can you just give up the title of your ancestors!"
Jia Zheng also didn't agree, but he was even more surprised why his sister-in-law suddenly made this request: "Sister, sister-in-law, what is Lian'er involved in? Why do you want to cut the title yourself?" Jia Zheng has already announced, right? He once discovered that the eldest brother sent Jia Lian to Ping'an Prefecture several times, but he didn't know what they were doing...
At this point, Lin Hai signaled Jia Amnesty to tell the truth, there is no point in hiding it anymore.
Jia Amnesty had no choice but to tell the truth, and then saw Jia Zheng sitting slumped on a chair with an expression on his face that life would be worse than death.Jia Cunzhou struggled and said to Jia Amnesty, "I can't blame elder brother for it. Good luck tricks people. Who knows that this step will happen." Shocked, but thinking about it carefully, it was indeed not Jia Amnesty's fault.
My father arranged it, and my elder brother obeyed. It's good fortune to play tricks on others, so I can't blame him.
Jia Cunzhou was silent for a while, and the other three people did not speak. Finally, Jia Zheng said: "Brother, please write down your title. Although I am a small and humble official, I can also hear that His Majesty is not mean. Let us ask you to drop your title. At any rate, we can hope for a chance of survival, otherwise, will we really have to make the whole family walk up and down the road to hell?"
Now not only the sister-in-law said this, the younger sister persuaded him like this, but now the younger brother also said the same, Jia She was silent for a while and was frustrated: "Go back to the house first, such a big matter, you have to tell the old lady."
Later, Jia Min sent someone to tell Daiyu that her two uncles had returned home.Then Jia Yan hugged Lin Shi and Jia Fei, and came to greet the two elders in a mighty way.Jia Fei had been pestering his father, asking him to talk about what Ping'an Prefecture was like, but this kid suddenly became very interested in the border.He wanted to know what a barbarian was and what it was like to fight.
Looking at her son's innocent face, Jia Yan thought that this is probably the case for a boy who grows up happily without any pressure from his parents.Curious about everything, eager to try everything, seems to have no idea what worrying is.How happy, Jia Yan rubbed his son's hair and led him into the main room.
The family of six had dinner together, and Lin Hai drank two glasses at night for some reason, and seemed to be in a good mood.Jia Yan and Daiyu looked at each other, but they didn't speak. The weird thing is that Jia Min also seemed to be in a good mood.Hey, when my mother's family encounters this kind of thing, it's good not to be entangled, why is it like this...
"Virtue does not match. The so-called gentleman carries things with great virtue. Without such virtue, it will be a matter of time before he loses his title." Jia Min really didn't care: "The matter of Rongfu's loss of title has been related to Ping'an Prefecture since I knew it. Afterwards, I have been thinking about it for a while. Although they don't have the reality in front of them, I have already thought through all aspects, and this may be the best ending."
At any rate, Jia Lian was considered a meritorious service this time. He turned to the light, and he himself was indeed innocent in this matter. The emperor raised his hand slightly and escaped.It's better than the whole family being tied up and sent to the execution ground. Jia Min thought about it, and wanted to survive. This was the only way.
Therefore, the old husband and wife have no burden at all, as long as the Rong family doesn't want to die, after thinking about it, they will know that asking themselves to cut the title is the only way.
"How can you ask yourself to cut the title!" With the same voice, Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang, the sisters-in-law who dislike each other, reached an agreement for the first time.Although their purposes are different: Mrs. Xing naturally feels that she is a successor, and the only thing she can get is the order of the general's wife; while Mrs. Wang feels that if the title is gone, then they will not be able to call themselves dukes. up...
Her natal brother Wang Ziteng's situation is not good. Of course, Madam Wang guarantees that there will be no problems in Rongfu, but now it seems that Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng brothers have come to a conclusion.What can I do, by the way, and the old lady!Mrs. Wang cast her expectant eyes on the old lady, but she saw that Wang Xifeng had already rushed over: "Old lady, you have to save our Second Master Lian!"
The old lady remained silent, but Baoyu spoke up: "It's the best way to ask yourself to cut the title. If you don't want the whole family to die, you can do it like this. If you don't want to do this, who can come up with a better way? Sister Feng Don't worry, Lian's second brother will be safe, old ancestor, please say something."
The first time he expressed his opinion on family affairs, he simply and neatly shattered his mother's thoughts. Mrs. Wang looked at her son in disbelief.Jia Baoyu didn't look at her, but only looked at his grandmother, father, and uncle, waiting for the elders' decision.Baochai didn't expect Baoyu to say that at all, and he just said that he would persuade his parents to grow up.
Xue Baochai was conceited and smart, and always thought that Baoyu was like a child who couldn't grow up, but this time she was wrong.
Jia She sighed deeply: "Mother, I'll go back and write the memorial right now. According to what my sister-in-law said, take the responsibility on myself. Maybe Lian'er is fine, and our family can also hope for a chance."
Shi Taijun finally nodded, and the three of them, mother and son, reached an agreement, so it was no one else's turn to speak.
Early the next morning, Jia Amnesty went to the Lin Mansion early, and handed the memorial to Lin Hai, who was in Xiumu: "I can't hand in the memorial, my sister-in-law will send it up for me, and I will go to Dali Temple in a while, so I can exchange Lian'er." .”
Although this has been deduced all the time, but now that the matter is at hand, Lin Hai also sighs a little. The century-old Xuanhe Duke's Mansion is coming to an end.
"Uncle, don't worry, leave it to me," Lin Hai took the memorial: "Uncle went to Dali Temple first, and said he surrendered himself, and I will arrive later."
Jia Amnesty smiled self-consciously: I understand this.The old lady talked with me for a long time yesterday. I have been a fool all my life. Now this result is much better than being tied up and sent to prison.
Lin Hai personally sent the man out of the study, and then went back to the study to look at the memorial, no, he can’t send it...Excluding the relationship, this matter is just an idle lord who got involved in this abortive coup because of things many years ago, saying It's not a big deal, it's a small thing, but if it is sent by Lin Hai, it seems too serious.
Moreover, Jia Lian was not brought back by him, and Lin Hai was not the one who handled it directly, and some of his names were not right, as if he was forcing the emperor to make concessions.This is not good, Lin Hai ordered someone to call Jia Yan, it was just right for Jia Yan to do this.Yan'er is not only the direct handler, but also a member of the Rong family, the nephew and son-in-law of Jia She, the person concerned, and the confidant of Emperor Situ Kuo.
The so-called one king and one courtier, Lin Hai sighed, only in this way can we take care of business and personal affairs, and will not make the emperor feel disgusted in the future.
Bachelor Lin thought about all the situation, but he didn't expect that Jia Yan had already told Situ Kuo about this matter, but Jia Yan didn't know the specific situation at the time.Just say that Jia Lian is innocent, he can only be used as circumstantial evidence, and other investigations are still needed.
Then the father-in-law gave Jia Yan a generous gift. He now knows the twists and turns. After listening to Lin Hai's instructions, Jia Yan asked him to rest assured.This matter was not difficult for Jia Boheng, he took the memorial and his servants, and went straight to the imperial city.
On such a happy day, I did not expect to meet Zhongshun Wang Situyan. Situyan entered the palace today to see His Majesty, and if he wanted to make persistent efforts, he might as well knock down all the people in Rongfu.Moreover, Jia Zhen and his son of Ningguo Mansion surrendered to Situ Yan, and they told Situ Yan that Rong Mansion might have a deep connection with Pingan Prefecture.Otherwise, what a coincidence that when the imperial envoy arrived, Jia Lian also arrived in Ping'an Prefecture.
Situ Yan felt that this idea was very correct. If it was done properly, it would not only overturn the wrecked ship of Rongfu, but also make the Lin family splash all over the place!
"Hey, isn't this Jia Canzheng?" Situ Yan saw Jia Yan, tsk, a lucky guy, "Is there any good thing Jia Canzheng got for His Majesty to show you? It's not just my king who has such a good eye."
Jia Yan felt annoyed when he saw him, this is a madman: "Don't dare, the officials are poor, and only have ancestral property. There are no rare treasures to pay tribute to His Majesty, but you, the prince, have heard that the Holy One has been enthroned since he was enthroned, and he has sent many good things for the saint to look at. .I have business to do, so I won't chat with you." After saying that, Jia Yan swaggered away.
Situ Yan's face was grim behind him, and his mouth was a little dirty. Sun Zhong, the deputy commander of the Jinwu Guard, and Gaoting, who had heard the news and was ordered to lead Jia Yan to the Zichen Palace, took a good look.Time is fate, King Zhongshun will fall out of favor, Gao Ting silently thinks that those who want to take advantage of the emperor, unless they usurp the throne, will basically end badly.
Regardless of the considerations, Situ Yan's good days are coming to an end.He himself did not expect that the emperor accepted his favor only when he first came to the throne, expressing his love for the clan, otherwise Situ Yan would be the emperor's confidant. The emperor seems to be the grandson of the emperor...
Such a person, who doesn't know how to restrain himself, still has to toss about in the court, the emperor will never tolerate him.
"This is the first-class general Jia She sent here this morning," Jia Yan saluted, and handed the things in his hands to Gao Ting: "Your Majesty, General Jia asked himself to cut his rank."
Situ Kuo blinked. From his father to now, it was the first time he heard that someone asked him to cut his title.He opened the memorabilia curiously, and after reading a few lines, his good mood turned into a normal mood, and finally his brows furrowed.There is actually such a relationship here. From 30 years ago to the present, the emperor saw the end and came to the same conclusion as Lin Hai: good fortune tricks people.
No wonder Jia Yan said that Jia Lian was innocent, it was indeed... No one thought that maybe Jia Amnesty had speculative intentions, but it was also because he was a nobleman and couldn't save face.But the imperial court has its own system, and after all they were involved, Situ Kuo suddenly asked, "Boheng, what do you think?"
Jia Yan was silent for a while: "The imperial court has its own system, and it is up to His Majesty to make decisions."
"No mercy?"
"For mercy, don't you ask His Majesty to show mercy to those who are suspected of rebellion?" Jia Yan sighed, "Your Majesty has favored me, so I can't do such a thing."
The morning sun shone in the hall, Situ Kuo looked at the flickering light and the people in the hall, and was about to speak when someone came outside to report that the first-class general Jia She went to Dali Temple to surrender, but the witness Jia Lian cried and said it was all his fault, How can a father replace a son?They are all people with official status. It is difficult for them to deal with Dali Temple's appeal to the emperor.
Situ Kuo thought about it, and finally said: "First lock them up, don't lock them together, we must watch them, and nothing will happen to them. If the witnesses do something good or bad, I will definitely punish the people of Dali Temple!"
Jia Yan felt relieved, the emperor still believed their attitude and was willing to spare Rongfu.If Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian were to be released now, outsiders would only think that they had betrayed the old nobles, and people would panic and not know what would happen.
"Okay, they've been locked up. Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian will only serve as witnesses and will not be punished. You can rest assured." Situ Kuo smiled at Jia Yan's obviously relaxed expression, and then he suppressed his smile: " But there is one thing that I haven't figured out how to do, about Dingchenghoufu and Ningwang... one is the clan of Jinzhi, the other is the relative of the meritorious officials, I don't want this matter to cause too much trouble."
Understood, Jia Yan stood down and thought, the emperor would not be happy to be pointed at by others, because his younger brother rebelled because he was dissatisfied with him as emperor in various aspects.Regardless of whether it was true or not, this kind of thing would hurt the emperor's prestige and dignity, so it is not appropriate to arrest people publicly.
"Did your majesty tell the emperor about this matter?" As a courtier himself, Jia Yan is not suitable to talk about how to deal with a certain clan. Confess one or two." All are gentle suggestions, and Jia Yan has already fulfilled his own positioning, a complete supporter role.
The emperor hesitated: "I..." He was worried that his father, who was becoming more and more soft-hearted as he got older, would stop his actions against King Ning?What's more, it's not just King Ning, but also King Zhongshun, Situ Yan, and Prince Han's son.A group of clans got involved, and if he wanted to deal with it, what if the emperor objected.
"The Emperor cares most about His Majesty." Jia Yan said with a smile, "If I remember correctly, it's time for the Twelve Princesses to choose their sons-in-law. They were chosen because they were worried about the turmoil in the court. Now it's time to choose one of them." The son-in-law is given to the princess, so why not start with this matter, Your Majesty."
It's really good to start the conversation with the marriage of the twelve princesses, Situ Kuo nodded and said with a smile: "That's not bad, hey, does Bo Heng still recognize Jingzhong Jian'er? The one who can be a son-in-law."
Jia Yan waved his hands again and again: "I have very little acquaintance with the children of famous families in Beijing. About this matter, you may wish to ask Shi Menggui? Or call the princesses in Beijing to ask, so that it is easier to find a suitable candidate." Son-in-law, whether the young couple will live well in the future, Jia Yan is determined not to ask for such troublesome errands.
King Ning and the residence of the Marquis of Dingcheng were in panic all day long. The Marquis of Dingcheng closed their doors to thank the guests. After being escorted to Beijing, I realized that the matter was probably a trap set by the emperor from beginning to end.
The prince of Han was even more restless. He encouraged and indulged his wife and cousin to inquire about the news. Since the emperor planned it long ago, this matter may also be exposed.What should he do? The fidgeting son looked at his young son and another child in his wife's womb, and finally made up his mind to tell King Han everything.
"Slap!" Waiting for Prince Wang was a slap, and Prince Han was slapped crookedly, with blood on the corners of his mouth.Han Wang shook his hands, pointing at this evil boy, he was speechless, and he took a long time to catch his breath and cursed: "You bloody brat!"
This is a terrible thing. It's not that the dynasty hasn't killed the clan so far, and he, the King of Han, either has made great contributions, or has gained a high position by virtue of blood.Moreover, he was confused, confronted the emperor's brother, and contradicted the emperor's nephew... After that, even if he was not stupid, he would be imprisoned all over the house, and the King Han family would be gone.
The father and son sat and knelt, and the son of King Han was fully expecting his father to save his life. Unexpectedly, what he was waiting for was a sentence left by King Han: "Suicide yourself."
The prince looked up and looked at his father in disbelief: "You want me to commit suicide? I am your son, father!"
King Han's eyes straightened: "I am also your mother's husband, the father of your brothers and sisters... your son's grandfather! My son, if you die, Situ Kuo will not pursue the female relatives. But if you don't die, our whole family will die." It’s hard to say, do you have the heart to watch your brothers and sisters become imprisoned? Do you think you are the Prince Yizhong? Children, wives and children will have a day when they will be released from confinement.”
"You don't have to argue," Han Wang suddenly smiled strangely: "I had given up on that idea, why did you get involved with King Ning again, do you think I don't know? Don't tell your father, it's for the palace. , for your brothers."
It's not that the eldest son has never thought about his younger brothers, he also feels that his cousin's succession can always arrange a suitable title for the younger brothers; or for the younger brothers who are concubines, it will be more confident to drive them out of the palace in the future.But on this occasion, this question pierced the most invisible place in his heart, and Prince Han had nothing to say.
King Han left the room and told his confidant guards: "You are not allowed to come out, and you are not allowed to reveal the news, just let him stay inside." The same decisiveness as the emperor, and even the emperor, and the ruthlessness when facing a crisis.
When Zongzheng Temple's report was delivered, Situ Kuo was taking his eldest son, Situ Xun, to fulfill his filial piety in front of the emperor and queen mother. After sending Situ Xun away, the emperor mentioned the younger sister's marriage.Just at the beginning, the atmosphere was just right, and the funeral news came.Situ Kuo was shocked, he asked again and again: "Could it be an epidemic?"
If it is an epidemic, the capital will have to start to prevent and control the epidemic, which is not easy.
It wasn't that Situ Kuo reacted slowly, he could never have guessed that his uncle was capable of forcing the murder of his own son, but the emperor felt it. He asked Zongzheng and the third princess consort: "Did the death of Prince Han's son be inappropriate?"
The third son-in-law said cautiously: "Yes, as the emperor said, he, the son of King Han, hanged himself to death."
"Ah!" Situ Kuo suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing, and his back went cold: "This," this is a scandal, "Did Uncle Han Wang cover it up for him?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the King of Han did not hide anything, and even told his ministers to report the truth."
The emperor waved his hand to make the three sons-in-law retreat: "Let's conduct the funeral according to the etiquette. Well, the funeral ceremony will be lowered to the standard of the prince's son. What does the emperor think?"
Situ Kuo bowed slightly: "This arrangement is very appropriate, as long as the father is in charge."
The three sons-in-law retreated, and the emperor showed doubts: "Father, Uncle King Han..."
"I'm afraid the son was killed by him..." The emperor sighed, "Your uncle never hesitates when it's time to end, but I have underestimated him all these years."
So, will killing the son make King Han... Situ Kuo looked at his father, and the emperor shook his head: "Don't worry, since he has dealt with the son, it means he doesn't want to get involved. Son, you can't clean up the clan." , For those who know how to stop and know good and bad, we should also give some benefits. Don't force them too much, unless they don't know how to advance or retreat."
"The son is taught."
The sudden death of King Han's son cast a stone in the eerie calm of Beijing, causing countless splashes, and of course the most touched were Dingcheng Hou's Mansion and Ning Wang.As relatives, watching Concubine Han and Mrs. Shizi crying to death, they looked like they were suffering beyond words.He also saw with his own eyes the funeral ceremony that the two sages ordered to degrade and deliberately neglected, and the emperor decreed that the second son of the king of Han should be crowned as his son before the bones were cold.
The people in the game naturally understood that the cause of the death of King Han's son was definitely not as simple as drinking too much and then falling ill. I am afraid that the family is like ants in a hot pot now.
Not only the ants in the hot pot, Princess Ning and Princess Ning have been crying for several times. When King Ning was going to the funeral of his cousin, he was called to the study by Uncle King Han and said something, and he fell ill when he came back.King Ning, who is young, is so sick that he can't get up now. The imperial doctor has visited him several times and said that he is too worried.
The concubine Liu wiped away her tears: "The prince of Han is dead, and there is no proof of his death. So what if your uncle suspects you to win over the prince? How could your father punish you because of gossip? You are the prince, his own son, Would it be better to be the emperor of his precious son Situ Kuo if you cut off all your brothers?"
Liu's life has been smooth and smooth. Back then, she thought she could beat Concubine Su—even now, the Empress Dowager Su, even though there is a separation between monarch and minister, she is not someone who easily admits defeat.She is even more enthusiastic about planning for the throne than her son... In the early years, Prince Ning had no such thoughts, but was encouraged by his mother to rekindle his old dreams.
King Ning, who was pampered and never wronged, already regretted it, but when the concubine said this, he became a little impatient: If you hadn't always said that the emperor loved his young son, I would be able to succeed if I behaved well, I would have misunderstood Go astray and end up making yourself like this?
The concubine is still saying that she wants to enter the palace to meet the emperor, does the queen mother not allow them to enter the palace?Just kidding, she must go, she wants to ask the emperor and the emperor face to face, is she going to force her son to death?
"Cough cough," King Ning struggled to make a sound, "Mother, go back first, don't hold back, it's fine for the concubine to stay."
Concubine Ning reluctantly left. The concubine sat next to King Ning. They were also young couples. The concubine gave birth to a son just last year.King Ning held the concubine's hand weakly, and called the maid: "Go and call the long history and the butler of the mansion..."
"My lord..." The concubine felt uneasy, she knew Prince Ning's ambition, but they had a good relationship as husband and wife, and the concubine herself did not have the obsession with "must be a queen".She only hoped that her husband and wife would be harmonious, that her youngest son would be lively and healthy, and it would be even better to have a few more children in the future.
When all the officials arrived, seeing that Wang Hao wanted to avoid it, King Ning said in a low voice: "This is the end of the matter, don't talk about these empty etiquettes, I asked you to come here to tell you that everything in the house is under Wang Hao's control. Do you understand? I'm so sick, I only listen to the princess!"
Everyone's heart trembled, and they understood what King Ning meant: don't talk to Princess Wang.The subordinates saluted the concubine together, and King Ning was relieved, he had made mistakes again and again, if his mother continued to toss about, he might not be able to keep the whole family of the palace.Even if you can't make your son a prince, you can't make him the son of a criminal.
After the death of King Han's son, the emperor ordered Jia Yan to also attend Duan Long's interrogation, and told him the news of his son's death.Jia Yan understood the emperor's intentions, Duan Long's mouth was tight, obviously he wanted to kill him alone, let the others escape, so as not to leave his children and grandchildren unattended in the future.It's a good idea, and it can be regarded as affectionate and righteous, but the emperor can't tolerate it.
"General Duan doesn't know, the son of the King of Han is dead, he was strangled to death by the King of Han himself." The jailer and the irrelevant people were all sent away, Jia Yan stood in the small prison where only Duan Long was locked up, and said lightly .
Duan Long hung his head and remained motionless, seemingly indifferent, but Jia Yan watched his fingers twitch.It seems that it is not completely indifferent, Jia Yan has a smile on his face, he seems to have turned on a strange switch, and his tone is almost malicious: "General Duan may not know, your home in Beijing , There was a fire the day before."
"It is simply that the Jinwu guards found a fire during the night patrol. The respected wife escaped with her children and grandchildren, but when the Shuntian Mansion inspected, it was found that there were traces of fire oil outside your mansion."
Duan Long understood that someone deliberately set the fire on fire, he slowly raised his head: "What do you want?"
"General Duan is a smart person. No matter whether you have mentioned the Ping'an Prefecture incident with your family or not, they have no plans to take good care of your family. What General Duan thinks is probably going to come to naught. You are loyal enough, but others may not think so."
Duan Long's cheeks twitched, and Jia Yan hit the iron while the iron was hot: "You can't give them a better future, can't you leave a way for your children and grandchildren to survive? General, you must be worthy of those who promote you, support you, and use you."
Threats and lures, both soft and hard, Duan Long lowered his head again, Jia Yan knew that they would definitely get what they wanted in the next interrogation.In fact, according to their current search of Duan Long's family property and correspondence, Duan Long is not without his own ideas.He was afraid that he wanted to coerce King Ning to order the court.
But this is not important anymore, as long as Duan Longyuan made the matter clear, as long as he can expose the Marquis of Dingcheng and King Ning in the game, it is not a big deal to let Duan's family go.
"The Marquis of Dingcheng gave our family a gift," Daiyu handed over the greeting card to Jia Yan, "It's very rich. They recruited the prince of Donghai Hou as a lobbyist and wanted to come to the door. I said you were not here, so I refused."
Jia Yan is helpless, what's the use of following his way?After all, this is the business of the emperor's family, you should bow your head to the emperor.I don't know what Marquis Dingcheng thinks...
Daiyu could see what Jia Yan was thinking at a glance, and she smiled: "I heard that the Dingcheng Marquis Mansion, regardless of whether it is a man or a female family member, has been deprived of the qualification to enter the palace. Even if they want to see the emperor, they will not be able to see him." , and last time I wanted to stand at the gate of the palace and ask some adult to send a message to their family, but I didn't expect to meet King Zhongshun."
oh?Jia Yan looked over, and Daiyu told him with a smile that King Zhongshun had taunted the members of the Liu family, and told them that he was ashamed, so he had to leave in despair.
Hehe, Situ Yan's harshness was used in the right place this time.Jia Yan suddenly thought: "Didn't they say they want the female relatives to visit you?"
"Chen Lin's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Liu, wants to come, but she doesn't have much contact with her. She just sent a gift with the Dingcheng Houfu."
Jia Yan rubbed his chin: "Speaking of it, it's not a year or a festival, but a sudden gift is given, should we return this gift?"
Daiyu thought for a while before saying, "It's better not to retreat. The Marquis of Dingcheng has no deep hatred for us in personal relationship, so why make it look like us." Her, don't mention it anymore.
"Oh, and also, our family will endorse later." Daiyu told Jia Yan about the happy event: "He is only three years old, I just read him some poems from the Book of Songs every day, but yesterday I found out He was all carried."
"Really?" Jia Yan hurriedly said, "I'll bring you to memorize it soon. Is it possible that our little girl is very talented?" The ability to memorize the Book of Songs at the age of three is definitely something a genius can do. Every family can produce a person who is a scholar!
Compared with his elder brother Jia Fei, who combined the good looks of his parents, Lin has a face like his father, but his facial features, especially his eyes, are like his mother.It can be said that he is a very beautiful child. Jia Fei hugged his son and listened to him reciting the poems. Like all the fathers in the world who know that their children are talented, they laughed from ear to ear.
"If brothers Liang Shi and Ying Xiang find out, I'm afraid they will cry and ask us to be sons-in-law!" Jia Yan was still in a good mood when she was lying on the bed, Daiyu couldn't help saying : "People say that a family has a daughter and a hundred begs. If you say it, it will become my family with a son and a hundred begs."
Haha, Jia Yan smirked, anyway, he was happy, no matter what his wife said, he was happy.
"During the summer vacation, the older sister of the Liang family told me about getting married." Daiyu let down her hair, "She and brother Zhengxing's eldest daughter, Shiniang, is exactly three years older than our general Fei'er. The female is older. , I think it’s nothing, what do you say.”
It's too early, Jia Yan expressed his opinion with eyes, Daiyu said with a smile: "Of course we will wait until the child grows up, the sister of the Liang family just thinks that we are not good, so let's say it in advance."
"I think Brother Zhengxing will change his mind when the children grow up." Jia Yan said casually, "Think about it, they have only one son now."
Daiyu lay beside Jia Yan, she was silent for a while and sighed: "Yes."
There are not many people in the two families. In Xu Zhi's place, his younger brother's studies are only average, and he has passed the exam for a scholar.In this case, the marriage between Xu Zhi's child and Jia Yan's child will only strengthen the friendship between the two parties, and will not have any practical benefits.Xu Zhi sees that his official career is getting better and better, relying on him, his children's marriage will not be bad.
But in the future, it still depends on their family Xu Qi to establish a family. Whether it is studying or being an official, there must be someone to help.From this point of view, whether it is a marriage with the Sun family or a remarriage with the Liang family, it is more suitable than Jia Yan's son.
"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. It's useless if we think too much." After a long time, Daiyu chuckled: "Who knows what will happen in ten years."
Jia Yan was half asleep and half awake, and forgot what he said, as if to say that their children would have the most suitable person waiting for them or something.
In the last years of Duanping, many things happened. Duan Long was imprisoned by the governor of Ping'an Prefecture. Duan Long reported many people who had wanted to speculate and even control the change of the throne.For a while, the old nobles in Beijing were panicked, committed suicide, escaped, and countless people joined the whistleblower. However, after Emperor Situ Kuo rounded and flattened them, he held them high and did not depose all the old nobles.
How many people prayed to Buddha at home, and after extreme fear, they began to thank Situ Kuo: the emperor was merciful and let them go.
The only one who was really held accountable was Dingchenghou's mansion. The old Dingchenghou himself was spared by the emperor because of his military exploits. In the winter of the second year, after the emperor summoned him into the palace, he died when he returned to the mansion. King Ning's eldest son was made a Duke and spent his days idle in Beijing.
The person involved in this case committed the crime of exile, exile, and confinement. In the second year after the end, Emperor Situ Kuo changed the Yuan to "Jingchu" and made the eldest son of the emperor, Situ Xun, the crown prince.
A new era has begun.
The author has something to say:
Ready to update, welcome to collect
There will be a long episode tomorrow, thank you for your support until now, thank you very much.
Jia Yan was lying in the hot water so comfortable that she didn't want to talk, but the daughter-in-law's questions always had to be answered: "Well, it's best to cut the title, I guess the father-in-law will persuade the two masters to write a letter to depose the title, saying that he is a vegetarian, I am so mediocre that I have humiliated my ancestors, I beg Your Majesty to cut the title of the Jia family."
"Well, I don't think the two uncles will agree, and I'm afraid the old lady won't be happy." Daiyu still has a clear understanding of the people in the Rong Mansion: "Besides, there is Ning Mansion, although it is divided. Yes, it can break the bones and connect the tendons."
Jia Yan's voice was also a little blurred in the water mist: "Then there is no other way, just let it be fate, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to pass the test if His Majesty orders you to do it."
"Princess Xianyang told me that Zhongshun Wang Situyan has frequently entered the palace in recent days, and I don't know what he said to His Majesty." Daiyu is worried about this: "I am worried that he will swear at His Majesty. Don't forget, he But it’s not pleasing to see our family.”
"Don't worry, don't worry, You Nian," Jia Yan said slowly, leaning on the bathtub, "Your Majesty is not confused. If Situ Yan wants to curry favor and use His Majesty, it depends on whether His Majesty is willing to let him use him." And people like Situ Kuo, How could you be willing to let him take advantage of it, what a joke!
The young couple reunited after a long absence, so they naturally wanted to talk about their farewell, and all irrelevant people were dismissed.The water in the tub splashed all over the floor, and they didn't know what they were doing, they were enjoying life anyway.
It's just difficult for Lin Hai and Jia Min, the old couple is dealing with two uncles, in fact, Lin Hai only has two sentences from the beginning to the end: "Yan'er was summoned by His Majesty and has not returned." Jue, my uncle wrote a letter saying that you sent brother Lian to Ping'an Prefecture, but he didn't know."
"Then what about my life!" Jia Amnesty exploded without accident, "Besides, how can you just give up the title of your ancestors!"
Jia Zheng also didn't agree, but he was even more surprised why his sister-in-law suddenly made this request: "Sister, sister-in-law, what is Lian'er involved in? Why do you want to cut the title yourself?" Jia Zheng has already announced, right? He once discovered that the eldest brother sent Jia Lian to Ping'an Prefecture several times, but he didn't know what they were doing...
At this point, Lin Hai signaled Jia Amnesty to tell the truth, there is no point in hiding it anymore.
Jia Amnesty had no choice but to tell the truth, and then saw Jia Zheng sitting slumped on a chair with an expression on his face that life would be worse than death.Jia Cunzhou struggled and said to Jia Amnesty, "I can't blame elder brother for it. Good luck tricks people. Who knows that this step will happen." Shocked, but thinking about it carefully, it was indeed not Jia Amnesty's fault.
My father arranged it, and my elder brother obeyed. It's good fortune to play tricks on others, so I can't blame him.
Jia Cunzhou was silent for a while, and the other three people did not speak. Finally, Jia Zheng said: "Brother, please write down your title. Although I am a small and humble official, I can also hear that His Majesty is not mean. Let us ask you to drop your title. At any rate, we can hope for a chance of survival, otherwise, will we really have to make the whole family walk up and down the road to hell?"
Now not only the sister-in-law said this, the younger sister persuaded him like this, but now the younger brother also said the same, Jia She was silent for a while and was frustrated: "Go back to the house first, such a big matter, you have to tell the old lady."
Later, Jia Min sent someone to tell Daiyu that her two uncles had returned home.Then Jia Yan hugged Lin Shi and Jia Fei, and came to greet the two elders in a mighty way.Jia Fei had been pestering his father, asking him to talk about what Ping'an Prefecture was like, but this kid suddenly became very interested in the border.He wanted to know what a barbarian was and what it was like to fight.
Looking at her son's innocent face, Jia Yan thought that this is probably the case for a boy who grows up happily without any pressure from his parents.Curious about everything, eager to try everything, seems to have no idea what worrying is.How happy, Jia Yan rubbed his son's hair and led him into the main room.
The family of six had dinner together, and Lin Hai drank two glasses at night for some reason, and seemed to be in a good mood.Jia Yan and Daiyu looked at each other, but they didn't speak. The weird thing is that Jia Min also seemed to be in a good mood.Hey, when my mother's family encounters this kind of thing, it's good not to be entangled, why is it like this...
"Virtue does not match. The so-called gentleman carries things with great virtue. Without such virtue, it will be a matter of time before he loses his title." Jia Min really didn't care: "The matter of Rongfu's loss of title has been related to Ping'an Prefecture since I knew it. Afterwards, I have been thinking about it for a while. Although they don't have the reality in front of them, I have already thought through all aspects, and this may be the best ending."
At any rate, Jia Lian was considered a meritorious service this time. He turned to the light, and he himself was indeed innocent in this matter. The emperor raised his hand slightly and escaped.It's better than the whole family being tied up and sent to the execution ground. Jia Min thought about it, and wanted to survive. This was the only way.
Therefore, the old husband and wife have no burden at all, as long as the Rong family doesn't want to die, after thinking about it, they will know that asking themselves to cut the title is the only way.
"How can you ask yourself to cut the title!" With the same voice, Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang, the sisters-in-law who dislike each other, reached an agreement for the first time.Although their purposes are different: Mrs. Xing naturally feels that she is a successor, and the only thing she can get is the order of the general's wife; while Mrs. Wang feels that if the title is gone, then they will not be able to call themselves dukes. up...
Her natal brother Wang Ziteng's situation is not good. Of course, Madam Wang guarantees that there will be no problems in Rongfu, but now it seems that Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng brothers have come to a conclusion.What can I do, by the way, and the old lady!Mrs. Wang cast her expectant eyes on the old lady, but she saw that Wang Xifeng had already rushed over: "Old lady, you have to save our Second Master Lian!"
The old lady remained silent, but Baoyu spoke up: "It's the best way to ask yourself to cut the title. If you don't want the whole family to die, you can do it like this. If you don't want to do this, who can come up with a better way? Sister Feng Don't worry, Lian's second brother will be safe, old ancestor, please say something."
The first time he expressed his opinion on family affairs, he simply and neatly shattered his mother's thoughts. Mrs. Wang looked at her son in disbelief.Jia Baoyu didn't look at her, but only looked at his grandmother, father, and uncle, waiting for the elders' decision.Baochai didn't expect Baoyu to say that at all, and he just said that he would persuade his parents to grow up.
Xue Baochai was conceited and smart, and always thought that Baoyu was like a child who couldn't grow up, but this time she was wrong.
Jia She sighed deeply: "Mother, I'll go back and write the memorial right now. According to what my sister-in-law said, take the responsibility on myself. Maybe Lian'er is fine, and our family can also hope for a chance."
Shi Taijun finally nodded, and the three of them, mother and son, reached an agreement, so it was no one else's turn to speak.
Early the next morning, Jia Amnesty went to the Lin Mansion early, and handed the memorial to Lin Hai, who was in Xiumu: "I can't hand in the memorial, my sister-in-law will send it up for me, and I will go to Dali Temple in a while, so I can exchange Lian'er." .”
Although this has been deduced all the time, but now that the matter is at hand, Lin Hai also sighs a little. The century-old Xuanhe Duke's Mansion is coming to an end.
"Uncle, don't worry, leave it to me," Lin Hai took the memorial: "Uncle went to Dali Temple first, and said he surrendered himself, and I will arrive later."
Jia Amnesty smiled self-consciously: I understand this.The old lady talked with me for a long time yesterday. I have been a fool all my life. Now this result is much better than being tied up and sent to prison.
Lin Hai personally sent the man out of the study, and then went back to the study to look at the memorial, no, he can’t send it...Excluding the relationship, this matter is just an idle lord who got involved in this abortive coup because of things many years ago, saying It's not a big deal, it's a small thing, but if it is sent by Lin Hai, it seems too serious.
Moreover, Jia Lian was not brought back by him, and Lin Hai was not the one who handled it directly, and some of his names were not right, as if he was forcing the emperor to make concessions.This is not good, Lin Hai ordered someone to call Jia Yan, it was just right for Jia Yan to do this.Yan'er is not only the direct handler, but also a member of the Rong family, the nephew and son-in-law of Jia She, the person concerned, and the confidant of Emperor Situ Kuo.
The so-called one king and one courtier, Lin Hai sighed, only in this way can we take care of business and personal affairs, and will not make the emperor feel disgusted in the future.
Bachelor Lin thought about all the situation, but he didn't expect that Jia Yan had already told Situ Kuo about this matter, but Jia Yan didn't know the specific situation at the time.Just say that Jia Lian is innocent, he can only be used as circumstantial evidence, and other investigations are still needed.
Then the father-in-law gave Jia Yan a generous gift. He now knows the twists and turns. After listening to Lin Hai's instructions, Jia Yan asked him to rest assured.This matter was not difficult for Jia Boheng, he took the memorial and his servants, and went straight to the imperial city.
On such a happy day, I did not expect to meet Zhongshun Wang Situyan. Situyan entered the palace today to see His Majesty, and if he wanted to make persistent efforts, he might as well knock down all the people in Rongfu.Moreover, Jia Zhen and his son of Ningguo Mansion surrendered to Situ Yan, and they told Situ Yan that Rong Mansion might have a deep connection with Pingan Prefecture.Otherwise, what a coincidence that when the imperial envoy arrived, Jia Lian also arrived in Ping'an Prefecture.
Situ Yan felt that this idea was very correct. If it was done properly, it would not only overturn the wrecked ship of Rongfu, but also make the Lin family splash all over the place!
"Hey, isn't this Jia Canzheng?" Situ Yan saw Jia Yan, tsk, a lucky guy, "Is there any good thing Jia Canzheng got for His Majesty to show you? It's not just my king who has such a good eye."
Jia Yan felt annoyed when he saw him, this is a madman: "Don't dare, the officials are poor, and only have ancestral property. There are no rare treasures to pay tribute to His Majesty, but you, the prince, have heard that the Holy One has been enthroned since he was enthroned, and he has sent many good things for the saint to look at. .I have business to do, so I won't chat with you." After saying that, Jia Yan swaggered away.
Situ Yan's face was grim behind him, and his mouth was a little dirty. Sun Zhong, the deputy commander of the Jinwu Guard, and Gaoting, who had heard the news and was ordered to lead Jia Yan to the Zichen Palace, took a good look.Time is fate, King Zhongshun will fall out of favor, Gao Ting silently thinks that those who want to take advantage of the emperor, unless they usurp the throne, will basically end badly.
Regardless of the considerations, Situ Yan's good days are coming to an end.He himself did not expect that the emperor accepted his favor only when he first came to the throne, expressing his love for the clan, otherwise Situ Yan would be the emperor's confidant. The emperor seems to be the grandson of the emperor...
Such a person, who doesn't know how to restrain himself, still has to toss about in the court, the emperor will never tolerate him.
"This is the first-class general Jia She sent here this morning," Jia Yan saluted, and handed the things in his hands to Gao Ting: "Your Majesty, General Jia asked himself to cut his rank."
Situ Kuo blinked. From his father to now, it was the first time he heard that someone asked him to cut his title.He opened the memorabilia curiously, and after reading a few lines, his good mood turned into a normal mood, and finally his brows furrowed.There is actually such a relationship here. From 30 years ago to the present, the emperor saw the end and came to the same conclusion as Lin Hai: good fortune tricks people.
No wonder Jia Yan said that Jia Lian was innocent, it was indeed... No one thought that maybe Jia Amnesty had speculative intentions, but it was also because he was a nobleman and couldn't save face.But the imperial court has its own system, and after all they were involved, Situ Kuo suddenly asked, "Boheng, what do you think?"
Jia Yan was silent for a while: "The imperial court has its own system, and it is up to His Majesty to make decisions."
"No mercy?"
"For mercy, don't you ask His Majesty to show mercy to those who are suspected of rebellion?" Jia Yan sighed, "Your Majesty has favored me, so I can't do such a thing."
The morning sun shone in the hall, Situ Kuo looked at the flickering light and the people in the hall, and was about to speak when someone came outside to report that the first-class general Jia She went to Dali Temple to surrender, but the witness Jia Lian cried and said it was all his fault, How can a father replace a son?They are all people with official status. It is difficult for them to deal with Dali Temple's appeal to the emperor.
Situ Kuo thought about it, and finally said: "First lock them up, don't lock them together, we must watch them, and nothing will happen to them. If the witnesses do something good or bad, I will definitely punish the people of Dali Temple!"
Jia Yan felt relieved, the emperor still believed their attitude and was willing to spare Rongfu.If Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian were to be released now, outsiders would only think that they had betrayed the old nobles, and people would panic and not know what would happen.
"Okay, they've been locked up. Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian will only serve as witnesses and will not be punished. You can rest assured." Situ Kuo smiled at Jia Yan's obviously relaxed expression, and then he suppressed his smile: " But there is one thing that I haven't figured out how to do, about Dingchenghoufu and Ningwang... one is the clan of Jinzhi, the other is the relative of the meritorious officials, I don't want this matter to cause too much trouble."
Understood, Jia Yan stood down and thought, the emperor would not be happy to be pointed at by others, because his younger brother rebelled because he was dissatisfied with him as emperor in various aspects.Regardless of whether it was true or not, this kind of thing would hurt the emperor's prestige and dignity, so it is not appropriate to arrest people publicly.
"Did your majesty tell the emperor about this matter?" As a courtier himself, Jia Yan is not suitable to talk about how to deal with a certain clan. Confess one or two." All are gentle suggestions, and Jia Yan has already fulfilled his own positioning, a complete supporter role.
The emperor hesitated: "I..." He was worried that his father, who was becoming more and more soft-hearted as he got older, would stop his actions against King Ning?What's more, it's not just King Ning, but also King Zhongshun, Situ Yan, and Prince Han's son.A group of clans got involved, and if he wanted to deal with it, what if the emperor objected.
"The Emperor cares most about His Majesty." Jia Yan said with a smile, "If I remember correctly, it's time for the Twelve Princesses to choose their sons-in-law. They were chosen because they were worried about the turmoil in the court. Now it's time to choose one of them." The son-in-law is given to the princess, so why not start with this matter, Your Majesty."
It's really good to start the conversation with the marriage of the twelve princesses, Situ Kuo nodded and said with a smile: "That's not bad, hey, does Bo Heng still recognize Jingzhong Jian'er? The one who can be a son-in-law."
Jia Yan waved his hands again and again: "I have very little acquaintance with the children of famous families in Beijing. About this matter, you may wish to ask Shi Menggui? Or call the princesses in Beijing to ask, so that it is easier to find a suitable candidate." Son-in-law, whether the young couple will live well in the future, Jia Yan is determined not to ask for such troublesome errands.
King Ning and the residence of the Marquis of Dingcheng were in panic all day long. The Marquis of Dingcheng closed their doors to thank the guests. After being escorted to Beijing, I realized that the matter was probably a trap set by the emperor from beginning to end.
The prince of Han was even more restless. He encouraged and indulged his wife and cousin to inquire about the news. Since the emperor planned it long ago, this matter may also be exposed.What should he do? The fidgeting son looked at his young son and another child in his wife's womb, and finally made up his mind to tell King Han everything.
"Slap!" Waiting for Prince Wang was a slap, and Prince Han was slapped crookedly, with blood on the corners of his mouth.Han Wang shook his hands, pointing at this evil boy, he was speechless, and he took a long time to catch his breath and cursed: "You bloody brat!"
This is a terrible thing. It's not that the dynasty hasn't killed the clan so far, and he, the King of Han, either has made great contributions, or has gained a high position by virtue of blood.Moreover, he was confused, confronted the emperor's brother, and contradicted the emperor's nephew... After that, even if he was not stupid, he would be imprisoned all over the house, and the King Han family would be gone.
The father and son sat and knelt, and the son of King Han was fully expecting his father to save his life. Unexpectedly, what he was waiting for was a sentence left by King Han: "Suicide yourself."
The prince looked up and looked at his father in disbelief: "You want me to commit suicide? I am your son, father!"
King Han's eyes straightened: "I am also your mother's husband, the father of your brothers and sisters... your son's grandfather! My son, if you die, Situ Kuo will not pursue the female relatives. But if you don't die, our whole family will die." It’s hard to say, do you have the heart to watch your brothers and sisters become imprisoned? Do you think you are the Prince Yizhong? Children, wives and children will have a day when they will be released from confinement.”
"You don't have to argue," Han Wang suddenly smiled strangely: "I had given up on that idea, why did you get involved with King Ning again, do you think I don't know? Don't tell your father, it's for the palace. , for your brothers."
It's not that the eldest son has never thought about his younger brothers, he also feels that his cousin's succession can always arrange a suitable title for the younger brothers; or for the younger brothers who are concubines, it will be more confident to drive them out of the palace in the future.But on this occasion, this question pierced the most invisible place in his heart, and Prince Han had nothing to say.
King Han left the room and told his confidant guards: "You are not allowed to come out, and you are not allowed to reveal the news, just let him stay inside." The same decisiveness as the emperor, and even the emperor, and the ruthlessness when facing a crisis.
When Zongzheng Temple's report was delivered, Situ Kuo was taking his eldest son, Situ Xun, to fulfill his filial piety in front of the emperor and queen mother. After sending Situ Xun away, the emperor mentioned the younger sister's marriage.Just at the beginning, the atmosphere was just right, and the funeral news came.Situ Kuo was shocked, he asked again and again: "Could it be an epidemic?"
If it is an epidemic, the capital will have to start to prevent and control the epidemic, which is not easy.
It wasn't that Situ Kuo reacted slowly, he could never have guessed that his uncle was capable of forcing the murder of his own son, but the emperor felt it. He asked Zongzheng and the third princess consort: "Did the death of Prince Han's son be inappropriate?"
The third son-in-law said cautiously: "Yes, as the emperor said, he, the son of King Han, hanged himself to death."
"Ah!" Situ Kuo suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing, and his back went cold: "This," this is a scandal, "Did Uncle Han Wang cover it up for him?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the King of Han did not hide anything, and even told his ministers to report the truth."
The emperor waved his hand to make the three sons-in-law retreat: "Let's conduct the funeral according to the etiquette. Well, the funeral ceremony will be lowered to the standard of the prince's son. What does the emperor think?"
Situ Kuo bowed slightly: "This arrangement is very appropriate, as long as the father is in charge."
The three sons-in-law retreated, and the emperor showed doubts: "Father, Uncle King Han..."
"I'm afraid the son was killed by him..." The emperor sighed, "Your uncle never hesitates when it's time to end, but I have underestimated him all these years."
So, will killing the son make King Han... Situ Kuo looked at his father, and the emperor shook his head: "Don't worry, since he has dealt with the son, it means he doesn't want to get involved. Son, you can't clean up the clan." , For those who know how to stop and know good and bad, we should also give some benefits. Don't force them too much, unless they don't know how to advance or retreat."
"The son is taught."
The sudden death of King Han's son cast a stone in the eerie calm of Beijing, causing countless splashes, and of course the most touched were Dingcheng Hou's Mansion and Ning Wang.As relatives, watching Concubine Han and Mrs. Shizi crying to death, they looked like they were suffering beyond words.He also saw with his own eyes the funeral ceremony that the two sages ordered to degrade and deliberately neglected, and the emperor decreed that the second son of the king of Han should be crowned as his son before the bones were cold.
The people in the game naturally understood that the cause of the death of King Han's son was definitely not as simple as drinking too much and then falling ill. I am afraid that the family is like ants in a hot pot now.
Not only the ants in the hot pot, Princess Ning and Princess Ning have been crying for several times. When King Ning was going to the funeral of his cousin, he was called to the study by Uncle King Han and said something, and he fell ill when he came back.King Ning, who is young, is so sick that he can't get up now. The imperial doctor has visited him several times and said that he is too worried.
The concubine Liu wiped away her tears: "The prince of Han is dead, and there is no proof of his death. So what if your uncle suspects you to win over the prince? How could your father punish you because of gossip? You are the prince, his own son, Would it be better to be the emperor of his precious son Situ Kuo if you cut off all your brothers?"
Liu's life has been smooth and smooth. Back then, she thought she could beat Concubine Su—even now, the Empress Dowager Su, even though there is a separation between monarch and minister, she is not someone who easily admits defeat.She is even more enthusiastic about planning for the throne than her son... In the early years, Prince Ning had no such thoughts, but was encouraged by his mother to rekindle his old dreams.
King Ning, who was pampered and never wronged, already regretted it, but when the concubine said this, he became a little impatient: If you hadn't always said that the emperor loved his young son, I would be able to succeed if I behaved well, I would have misunderstood Go astray and end up making yourself like this?
The concubine is still saying that she wants to enter the palace to meet the emperor, does the queen mother not allow them to enter the palace?Just kidding, she must go, she wants to ask the emperor and the emperor face to face, is she going to force her son to death?
"Cough cough," King Ning struggled to make a sound, "Mother, go back first, don't hold back, it's fine for the concubine to stay."
Concubine Ning reluctantly left. The concubine sat next to King Ning. They were also young couples. The concubine gave birth to a son just last year.King Ning held the concubine's hand weakly, and called the maid: "Go and call the long history and the butler of the mansion..."
"My lord..." The concubine felt uneasy, she knew Prince Ning's ambition, but they had a good relationship as husband and wife, and the concubine herself did not have the obsession with "must be a queen".She only hoped that her husband and wife would be harmonious, that her youngest son would be lively and healthy, and it would be even better to have a few more children in the future.
When all the officials arrived, seeing that Wang Hao wanted to avoid it, King Ning said in a low voice: "This is the end of the matter, don't talk about these empty etiquettes, I asked you to come here to tell you that everything in the house is under Wang Hao's control. Do you understand? I'm so sick, I only listen to the princess!"
Everyone's heart trembled, and they understood what King Ning meant: don't talk to Princess Wang.The subordinates saluted the concubine together, and King Ning was relieved, he had made mistakes again and again, if his mother continued to toss about, he might not be able to keep the whole family of the palace.Even if you can't make your son a prince, you can't make him the son of a criminal.
After the death of King Han's son, the emperor ordered Jia Yan to also attend Duan Long's interrogation, and told him the news of his son's death.Jia Yan understood the emperor's intentions, Duan Long's mouth was tight, obviously he wanted to kill him alone, let the others escape, so as not to leave his children and grandchildren unattended in the future.It's a good idea, and it can be regarded as affectionate and righteous, but the emperor can't tolerate it.
"General Duan doesn't know, the son of the King of Han is dead, he was strangled to death by the King of Han himself." The jailer and the irrelevant people were all sent away, Jia Yan stood in the small prison where only Duan Long was locked up, and said lightly .
Duan Long hung his head and remained motionless, seemingly indifferent, but Jia Yan watched his fingers twitch.It seems that it is not completely indifferent, Jia Yan has a smile on his face, he seems to have turned on a strange switch, and his tone is almost malicious: "General Duan may not know, your home in Beijing , There was a fire the day before."
"It is simply that the Jinwu guards found a fire during the night patrol. The respected wife escaped with her children and grandchildren, but when the Shuntian Mansion inspected, it was found that there were traces of fire oil outside your mansion."
Duan Long understood that someone deliberately set the fire on fire, he slowly raised his head: "What do you want?"
"General Duan is a smart person. No matter whether you have mentioned the Ping'an Prefecture incident with your family or not, they have no plans to take good care of your family. What General Duan thinks is probably going to come to naught. You are loyal enough, but others may not think so."
Duan Long's cheeks twitched, and Jia Yan hit the iron while the iron was hot: "You can't give them a better future, can't you leave a way for your children and grandchildren to survive? General, you must be worthy of those who promote you, support you, and use you."
Threats and lures, both soft and hard, Duan Long lowered his head again, Jia Yan knew that they would definitely get what they wanted in the next interrogation.In fact, according to their current search of Duan Long's family property and correspondence, Duan Long is not without his own ideas.He was afraid that he wanted to coerce King Ning to order the court.
But this is not important anymore, as long as Duan Longyuan made the matter clear, as long as he can expose the Marquis of Dingcheng and King Ning in the game, it is not a big deal to let Duan's family go.
"The Marquis of Dingcheng gave our family a gift," Daiyu handed over the greeting card to Jia Yan, "It's very rich. They recruited the prince of Donghai Hou as a lobbyist and wanted to come to the door. I said you were not here, so I refused."
Jia Yan is helpless, what's the use of following his way?After all, this is the business of the emperor's family, you should bow your head to the emperor.I don't know what Marquis Dingcheng thinks...
Daiyu could see what Jia Yan was thinking at a glance, and she smiled: "I heard that the Dingcheng Marquis Mansion, regardless of whether it is a man or a female family member, has been deprived of the qualification to enter the palace. Even if they want to see the emperor, they will not be able to see him." , and last time I wanted to stand at the gate of the palace and ask some adult to send a message to their family, but I didn't expect to meet King Zhongshun."
oh?Jia Yan looked over, and Daiyu told him with a smile that King Zhongshun had taunted the members of the Liu family, and told them that he was ashamed, so he had to leave in despair.
Hehe, Situ Yan's harshness was used in the right place this time.Jia Yan suddenly thought: "Didn't they say they want the female relatives to visit you?"
"Chen Lin's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Liu, wants to come, but she doesn't have much contact with her. She just sent a gift with the Dingcheng Houfu."
Jia Yan rubbed his chin: "Speaking of it, it's not a year or a festival, but a sudden gift is given, should we return this gift?"
Daiyu thought for a while before saying, "It's better not to retreat. The Marquis of Dingcheng has no deep hatred for us in personal relationship, so why make it look like us." Her, don't mention it anymore.
"Oh, and also, our family will endorse later." Daiyu told Jia Yan about the happy event: "He is only three years old, I just read him some poems from the Book of Songs every day, but yesterday I found out He was all carried."
"Really?" Jia Yan hurriedly said, "I'll bring you to memorize it soon. Is it possible that our little girl is very talented?" The ability to memorize the Book of Songs at the age of three is definitely something a genius can do. Every family can produce a person who is a scholar!
Compared with his elder brother Jia Fei, who combined the good looks of his parents, Lin has a face like his father, but his facial features, especially his eyes, are like his mother.It can be said that he is a very beautiful child. Jia Fei hugged his son and listened to him reciting the poems. Like all the fathers in the world who know that their children are talented, they laughed from ear to ear.
"If brothers Liang Shi and Ying Xiang find out, I'm afraid they will cry and ask us to be sons-in-law!" Jia Yan was still in a good mood when she was lying on the bed, Daiyu couldn't help saying : "People say that a family has a daughter and a hundred begs. If you say it, it will become my family with a son and a hundred begs."
Haha, Jia Yan smirked, anyway, he was happy, no matter what his wife said, he was happy.
"During the summer vacation, the older sister of the Liang family told me about getting married." Daiyu let down her hair, "She and brother Zhengxing's eldest daughter, Shiniang, is exactly three years older than our general Fei'er. The female is older. , I think it’s nothing, what do you say.”
It's too early, Jia Yan expressed his opinion with eyes, Daiyu said with a smile: "Of course we will wait until the child grows up, the sister of the Liang family just thinks that we are not good, so let's say it in advance."
"I think Brother Zhengxing will change his mind when the children grow up." Jia Yan said casually, "Think about it, they have only one son now."
Daiyu lay beside Jia Yan, she was silent for a while and sighed: "Yes."
There are not many people in the two families. In Xu Zhi's place, his younger brother's studies are only average, and he has passed the exam for a scholar.In this case, the marriage between Xu Zhi's child and Jia Yan's child will only strengthen the friendship between the two parties, and will not have any practical benefits.Xu Zhi sees that his official career is getting better and better, relying on him, his children's marriage will not be bad.
But in the future, it still depends on their family Xu Qi to establish a family. Whether it is studying or being an official, there must be someone to help.From this point of view, whether it is a marriage with the Sun family or a remarriage with the Liang family, it is more suitable than Jia Yan's son.
"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. It's useless if we think too much." After a long time, Daiyu chuckled: "Who knows what will happen in ten years."
Jia Yan was half asleep and half awake, and forgot what he said, as if to say that their children would have the most suitable person waiting for them or something.
In the last years of Duanping, many things happened. Duan Long was imprisoned by the governor of Ping'an Prefecture. Duan Long reported many people who had wanted to speculate and even control the change of the throne.For a while, the old nobles in Beijing were panicked, committed suicide, escaped, and countless people joined the whistleblower. However, after Emperor Situ Kuo rounded and flattened them, he held them high and did not depose all the old nobles.
How many people prayed to Buddha at home, and after extreme fear, they began to thank Situ Kuo: the emperor was merciful and let them go.
The only one who was really held accountable was Dingchenghou's mansion. The old Dingchenghou himself was spared by the emperor because of his military exploits. In the winter of the second year, after the emperor summoned him into the palace, he died when he returned to the mansion. King Ning's eldest son was made a Duke and spent his days idle in Beijing.
The person involved in this case committed the crime of exile, exile, and confinement. In the second year after the end, Emperor Situ Kuo changed the Yuan to "Jingchu" and made the eldest son of the emperor, Situ Xun, the crown prince.
A new era has begun.
