After I became a widow

Su Jingqing and Xiao Beihuai stayed at Su's house for half the afternoon, and they didn't go home until after dinner.

Su's father also knew that Xiao Yunyi was thinking about making Su Mingyan his concubine, so he wanted to tear up the post after taking it.

But was stopped by Mrs. Sun, who said to Su's father: "We will go with A Yan when the time comes, and we will see how powerful Concubine Zhong Gui is, and she can point A Yan to her son as a concubine in front of us." !"

When Su's father heard it, he felt that it was feasible, and immediately became happy again, and praised his wife's intelligence.

Sun thought to herself, in the Su family, everyone is smart.

Su Jingqing also thinks that Sun's idea is good, but if he adds another person, the effect may be even better.

Su Jingqing approached Su's father and whispered a few words to him, Su's father nodded repeatedly, "Success, just do as you say, son, and kill that bastard."

The Su family sent them out, Su's father looked at Xiao Beihuai with a look of reluctance, and even waved at him after everyone got into the carriage, "My lord, you often come to eat at home."

Su Jingqing glanced at Xiao Beihuai, "Did you drug my father?"

Xiao Beihuai said: "I just talked about some opinions on martial arts secret books."

Okay, Su Jingqing understands, this is a stab at his father's heart, no wonder he is so reluctant to part.

Father Su doesn't have any other hobbies, he just likes to donate sesame oil money to the monastery and read Jianghu story books.

In order to keep the pilgrims who spend a lot of money like Su's father, there are suddenly more martial arts cheats in the temple, anyway, anyone who knows it can understand it.

But it's a pity that he didn't learn any of those martial arts secrets, and of course, neither did his son.

Now that there is an older son-in-law who understands cheats, it is not uncommon.

Su Jingqing reckoned that if Xiao Beihuai went to Su's house a few more times, Xiao Beihuai would probably become Su's father's own son, and he would be awarded the status of visiting son-in-law.

Su Jingqing asked him, "Do you want to change your father?"

Xiao Beihuai said: "There's no need to change it, it's already done. Thanks to the concubine, this king has taken advantage of it."

Not to mention status, but in terms of character, Su Jingqing felt that he was indeed at a disadvantage.

But for the sake of Xiao Beihuai satisfying himself, this loss doesn't matter.

Xiao Beihuai smiled and praised him for his generosity.

Su Jingqing said: "Who made you your own?"

To outsiders, he can't be generous.

Su Jingqing lazily leaned against Xiao Beihuai. Although he didn't speak, Xiao Beihuai guessed that his concubine was already plotting against her.

The princess is so diligent, he can't be idle, maybe he should go to court tomorrow?

The couple, who had their own plans, looked at each other with a tacit understanding, and both smiled.

In winter, I am idle and idle, just looking for some fun.

……

The next day, Su Jingqing was lying in bed, Xiao Beihuai got up early to go to court, and seeing Zisu came in to serve him again, his expression faded a bit, Zisu pretended not to see him and wanted to dress him.

"Get out!" Because Su Jingqing was still asleep, his voice was not loud, but his attitude was unquestionable.

Zisu's face became embarrassing, but she became a little more stubborn, but she didn't say anything in the end, and retreated after saluting.

Xiao Beihuai looked coldly at Mo Yan who came in one step later, "Go and receive the punishment yourself."

Mo Yan's expression froze, and he knelt down to admit his mistake, "Yes, this subordinate knows his mistake, and there will be no next time."

Xiao Beihuai looked back at Su Jingqing on the bed, didn't say much, asked Mo Yan to wait for him to get dressed, and went out.

As for this matter, Siyan told Su Jing after he woke up.

"This Miss Zisu is also really interesting. She was in Yuqing Courtyard when the prince was in the house. If the prince goes out, she will become a good helper for Uncle Zhong. It seems that she wants to catch both."

After Su Jingqing listened, he looked at Siyan in surprise, "Have you thought of this?"

Siyan got angry and stomped her feet, "Princess, I'm not stupid!"

Su Jingqing quickly smiled to comfort him, "Okay, you are not stupid, our Siyan girl is the smartest."

Although it was very perfunctory, Siyan also generously did not care about her princess, and said: "I saw it before when I was in the Su family. One year, the mansion bought a few new maids, and there was a maid named Xiang'er." She was assigned to do rough work in the courtyard of the master and his wife. Xiang'er wanted to be a concubine for the master, so every time the master passed by, she would sprain her feet. After seeing her a lot, the master felt that the Su family might beat her, so he asked his wife to go to the temple. Li begged for a peace talisman for Xiang'er, telling her to go home earlier, and then sent her away."

Anyway, since then, no one has dared to fall down in front of the master. It is said that it is because the master asked his wife to ask for a lot of peace charms, saying that if there is any conflict with the mansion in the future, he will send one to keep him safe.

Siyan still remembered that many servant girls in the mansion were envious of Madam, saying that she was a concubine married to a Marquis, but the Marquis himself did not mess around, and the room was clean.

All right, his father can really do this, Su Jingqing thought to himself.

He even thought that his father might really think that Su Jiake's name was Xiang'er.

Su Jingqing accepted the suggestion: "Okay, if Zisu's ankle is turned around, ask the prince to give her a safety talisman as well."

"No problem, don't worry, princess, everything is ready!" Si Yan nodded happily, and took several from her purse.

Su Jingqing took a look, "Where did it come from?"

Si Yan said: "Madam gave it to me. Last time I went home, Xiang Yu told Madam about the maids who were driven away by the princess. Madam gave it to me. I keep it with me all the time."

Su Jingqing: "..." His mother is really thoughtful.

Su Jingqing said: "Keep keeping it in your pocket, and I'll ask you for it when you need it."

Originally, he wanted to ask Xiao Beihuai if Zisu could be used, but judging by Xiao Beihuai's attitude, there was no need to ask.

Su Jingqing got up, had an early meal, called Bai Shu, and asked him to go to work.

If you want the Liu family and Xiao Yunyi to bite the dog, you have to spread the news.

……

At this time, the imperial palace was above the Golden Palace.

Yu Shi was spitting about Xiao Beihuai's crimes.

Let me first say that he has clearly returned to Beijing safely, but he wants to hide his whereabouts, and his intentions are bad.

Then he said that he killed innocent people indiscriminately, without the king's law, causing the people to talk a lot, and asked the emperor to order a thorough investigation, and give justice to the innocent people who died in vain.

In the end, he said that King Huai went back to Beijing with great fanfare, asking all the civil and military officials to mobilize the crowd to pick him up, which was beyond the norm.

Forcibly accumulating three crimes and putting them on Xiao Beihuai's body, it's really embarrassing to hear.

Unexpectedly, for such a fart-like crime, there are still many people who stand up and agree.

Someone directly named Xiao Beihuai, "His Royal Highness Huai Wang, shouldn't you explain these things?"

Xiao Beihuai didn't even move his eyelids.

The emperor watched from above, and always felt that Xiao Beihuai seemed to be asleep.

He didn't answer, and the emperor didn't open his mouth, so the scene was quite embarrassing.

"His Highness Duke Huai, His Highness Duke Huai?" Someone raised his voice and called twice.

But Xiao Beihuai still didn't respond, and many people became dissatisfied, feeling that His Highness Duke Huai didn't take them seriously.

Some adults boldly stretched out their hands to pick him up, but as soon as his hand touched Xiao Beihuai's shoulder, Xiao Beihuai suddenly moved, and a chopping hand hit the minister who was about to pick him up on the neck, knocking him down.

This incident caused the officials in the Golden Palace to look at each other. As soon as someone wanted to criticize, Xiao Beihuai perfunctorily cupped his hands at the minister who was beaten by him and lay on the ground, "Forget that this is not in Liangzhou anymore, no Beiyi people will come Sneak attack on the king."

As soon as this remark came out, many ministers who wanted to accuse him shut up.

Xiao Beihuai's words were not only telling them that he had military merits, but also saying that only Beiyi people would sneak up on him.

If it's not from Beiyi, then it has something to do with Beiyi.

They dare not forget that the blood of those collaborators ahead stained the entire execution field red.

"So, what's the matter with calling this king?" Xiao Beihuai looked around the crowd and asked.

He didn't dare to say anything, but Xiao Beihuai made a move on the ministers in the Golden Palace, and some people refused to let this matter pass.

The Duke of the Zhong family came out of the queue, bowed his hands to the emperor, and then looked at Xiao Beihuai, "His Royal Highness Huai, although you have a noble status, you shouldn't beat the court officials on the golden palace."

Xiao Beihuai nodded, "Mr. Zhong Guo is right, but this king has already fought, what should you do?"

This remark was like stabbing a hornet's nest. Immediately, a bunch of people stood up and accused him, saying that he has no emperor in his eyes, that his methods are cruel and intolerable, and that if he dared to beat people in the Golden Palace today, would he dare tomorrow? Rebellion?

I was afraid that the hat that was buckled would not be heavy enough to crush him to death.

The emperor was still sick, with a sallow complexion, sitting high on the dragon chair, without saying a word.

Xiao Yunyi didn't participate in it today, he only glanced at Xiao Beihuai occasionally, and sneered with hatred mixed in.

After these people finished criticizing, they all knelt down and told the emperor to punish him severely and give the beaten person an explanation.

The Son of Heaven coughed lightly, "Prince Huai, what do you say about this matter?"

Xiao Beihuai said: "I have nothing to say."

It seems that he is waiting for the emperor to say how to punish him.

At this time, Father Su stood up and pulled the minister who was beaten up, "Master Zhou, you said you are fine, why did you want to attack His Highness Duke Huai?"

"Look at being beaten as a spy now, why don't you apologize to His Highness Duke Huai, and say that you are not a spy from Beiyi, or you will be misunderstood as a fish that slipped through the net in the secret work of Beiyi."

When Su's father opened his mouth, the situation changed again.

Another person stood up and laughed mockingly, "Master Zhou attacked His Highness Duke Huai first, and His Highness Huai was just defending himself. If you talk about it, His Highness Huai beat up the court officials. You don't know right from wrong, like it." Turning black and white, there are many unjust cases under his hands."

A group of kneeling people were scolded into it.

Su's father added: "Speaking of which, the Duke of the country said this first, the Duke of the country is so protective of a person who seems to be meticulous, could it be that you also..."

Zhong Guogong's face turned cold, and he said in a low voice, "Enough, Su Hou said carefully."

Xiao Beihuai's eyes fell on Zhong Guogong, "I'm guilty, why don't people tell the truth?"

"Speaking of which, when the king was assassinated at the time, it seemed that he heard some bell characters from those people. All the civil and military clocks in the court had something to do with the Duke. Could it be that the Duke thought that the king was not pleasing to the eye, so he cooperated with others from the inside out? To get rid of..."

"Prince Huai!"

Xiao Beihuai's words were interrupted by the emperor, who was not allowed to continue talking.

And Zhong Guogong knelt down immediately, expressing his loyalty to the emperor.

Such a picture of a virtuous and loyal minister, Xiao Beihuai couldn't help but twitch his lips.

It also made the emperor look bad, "Okay, you don't need to bring unnecessary rumors to the court all day long. If you really have nothing to do, then resign and go home. I won't keep you."

"If you let me hear any nonsense in the future, I will not forgive you."

"As for Zhong Guogong, you are an important minister of the court, so you should speak properly."

Zhong Guogong was still kneeling, his face was not very good-looking, "I know my mistake, please punish me by the emperor."

"You are slandering Duke Huai with your unscrupulous words, I will not punish you, you go and make amends to Duke Huai on your own."

"There is nothing to do today, so let's retreat."

After the emperor finished speaking, he left with a little anger.

All the ministers sent the emperor respectfully, and for a moment they couldn't remember what useful things they had done this morning.

It was supposed to sue Duke Huai, but after a few words, someone was beaten, Duke Zhong Guo was reprimanded by the emperor, and he wanted to make an apology to Duke Huai.

Xiao Beihuai went out of the Golden Palace first, and there was a eunuch waiting at the door, seeing him coming out, he immediately said, "My lord, the emperor has invited you."

Xiao Beihuai turned his head to look at Su's father, Su's father quickly waved his hands, "My lord, go quickly, don't keep the emperor waiting."

"Okay, dad, you go out of the palace and go back to the mansion first."

Xiao Beihuai called out dad, and many people's jaws dropped in shock. Su's father saw everyone's reaction, and pretended to sigh, "Oh, my life has been shortened, how can I make His Royal Highness Huai call me dad?"

Hehe, the people around sneered, as if no one could hear his complacency.

And Duke Huai's attitude towards Su's father also moved many neutral factions.

On the other side, Xiao Beihuai and the emperor walked into his study.

The first thing the Son of Heaven said to Xiao Beihuai was: "You are too aggressive, with so many people, you shouldn't pick the Zhong family to stand out."

Xiao Beihuai looked at the Son of Heaven, and smiled after a while, "Can't bear to miss your Concubine Zhong Gui?"

Tomorrow must be early!
