After I became a widow

Su Jingqing didn't stay long in Daying on the outskirts of Beijing, and took people back to the city after lunch.

However, when they returned to the city, the team was much larger. In addition to their original people, there were many more soldiers from the camp in the suburbs of Beijing, responsible for escorting people and corpses.

The people were the offshoots of the Luo family, and the corpses were men in black robes who came to attack the camp in the suburbs of Beijing.

Since so many people are eyeing the military power of the [-] garrisons, and dare to send people to intercept and kill the military division, they will always have to find someone to settle the score.

The identity of the man in black is unknown, and his whereabouts are uncertain. Even if it is said that he did the thing, the murderer will not be caught for a while, so it is better to merge the two sides and say that one side did it.

It just so happened that the Tang family sent these Luo family offshoots to provide ready-made evidence.

If you don't suppress the opponent while the emperor still feels a little bit guilty for him, you will be sorry for the cold he suffered in the lake.

Since the Tang family wanted to seize the military power for Xiao Yunyi, they would have to bear the backlash if they failed to seize the military power.

Since some people don't let him have an Ansheng year, then everyone should not let him have an Ansheng year.

When returning to the city, Su Jingqing kept a sullen face all the way, anyone could see that he was unhappy.

After entering the city, Su Jingqing asked Luo Lingchuan and Zhao Hu to enter the palace to report to the emperor about the attack on the camp in the suburbs of Beijing, and he followed Ye Xiao to the government office with the body and Luo's side branch.

In addition, they sent someone back to the Su family to report the news, so as not to worry the family members.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, dozens of corpses were sent to the government office. The scene was scary enough, and the news spread in Kyoto immediately.

Some people were terrified when they heard it, while others felt unlucky, "Why did something happen again?"

"The beginning and end of the year have not been peaceful."

Some people showed their eyes and sent people to watch the government office, knowing that this corpse was probably just the beginning.

The Tang family also got the news that Mrs. Tang was restless when she got up early in the morning. She didn't take her daughter out of the city to offer incense, but locked herself in the Buddhist hall to worship the Buddha, but her heart couldn't calm down. When she started to dance, she couldn't kneel anymore, so she asked the serving mother to help her up, "Where is the master, are you at home?"

Nanny helped her to go out, and called the maid to ask the master's whereabouts.

The servant girl said: "Master went out to have a drink with his colleagues."

During the Chinese New Year, when I am free, it is common for me to use my time to move around with my colleagues.

"What about Tuo'er and Xu'er?" Mrs. Tang asked again.

"Ma'am, have you forgotten? The Eldest Young Master said last night that he would accompany His Royal Highness Yi Wang and Young Lady out of the city to offer incense. As for the Second Young Master, he is probably still at home."

The servant girl leaned over, "I didn't see the Second Young Master go out today."

Mrs. Tang rubbed her eyes, "This eyelid keeps twitching, I'm very flustered, you go, let someone go to find the master, just say I'm not feeling well, let him come back, and then send someone out of the city to look for Tuo'er They are brothers and sisters."

As Mrs. Tang said, she asked her nanny to help her to Tang Xu's yard, praying in her heart as she walked, that nothing would happen to her.

As a result, as soon as I left the yard, I saw the housekeeper hurried over, "Ma'am, something happened!"

Mrs. Tang felt her heart was suffocated, her head hurt and her whole body was uncomfortable.

But he still insisted on asking the housekeeper, "What happened?"

The housekeeper reported: "The people from Daying in the outskirts of Beijing entered the palace, Princess Huai took people from the Luo family and many corpses to the government office, and now the people in the city know about it."

"Hurry up, go find the master..." Mrs. Tang hurriedly urged, even her breathing became short of breath.

"No, I'm back." Before Madam Tang finished speaking, Tang Xicheng walked in from the outside, but his face was very ugly.

The news had already reached the mansion, and the others were outside, so naturally they received the news first.

"Don't worry, ma'am, it's not a big deal." He only asked the Luo family to take Luo Lingchuan away. Tang Xicheng didn't care about other things that had nothing to do with their Tang family.

He was just dissatisfied that Princess Huai wanted to make the matter public. If the emperor knew that so many people were thinking about the military power in Duke Huai's hands, it would be even more difficult to seize power in the future.

What they want is to quietly control the [-] garrisons in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, and then use them at critical moments to hit them with one blow, and finally let King Yi succeed in enthroning.

Or, let the generals in the camp do other things, such as kill King Huai when he went to the barracks.

But no matter what these garrisons do, there is a prerequisite, that is, quietly.

We must not allow people to make things public with great fanfare, otherwise seizing military power is tantamount to rebellion, and their Tang family will be implicated...

Tang Xicheng didn't dare to imagine the consequences.

So we must get rid of the Tang family first.

"Help Madam go back to the house to rest," Tang Xicheng ordered, then turned around and asked people to go out of the city to find the eldest son, while he himself went to see the younger son.

Because he became a useless person, Tang Xu became more and more gloomy now.

Before being persuaded by his mother to seek revenge on Su Jingqing, he took some time to cheer up. He even planned to destroy Su Jingqing in Qingfang Garden, but unexpectedly, he was pushed into the water by King Yi. I didn't see them, and the Qunfang Banquet was over.

When Tang Xu came back, he locked himself in the room and lost his temper. No one persuaded him. He didn't even go out to have dinner with his family on New Year's Eve yesterday, which caused Mrs. Tang to cry again.

This morning Tang Tuo wanted to take him out to relax, but Tang Xu had to let him go.

Tang Xu now hates Tang Tuo no less than he hates Su Jingqing.

When Tang Xicheng came to knock on the door, he couldn't help sighing, not knowing why things had become like this.

"Xu'er, open the door, Dad has something important to tell you."

Tang Xu was still somewhat afraid of his father, and after Tang Xicheng urged him a few times, he slowly opened the door.

Tang Xicheng frowned looking at the mess in the house, but he didn't mention it, he just closed the door and said to Tang Xu: "Something happened now, dad hopes you can help the family get through this crisis."

Tang Xu sneered, "Instead of looking for Tang Tuo, you came to find me, a useless person, wanting to use waste?"

"Because no one will believe this matter unless you come forward. Although you will be wronged for a while, father can make you revenge."

Tang Xu twitched the corner of his mouth, "Master Tang is so powerful, do you think I can get away with killing Su Jingqing?"

Tang Xicheng explained, "It was not Princess Huai who was killed, but Luo Lingchuan, Prince Huai's military advisor."

"He arranged for you to be kicked and injured by a horse, and the account must be settled on him."

"So what? The matter of you killing Luo Lingchuan has been exposed again, and now you are going to use me to fill in the hole? Master Tang has a good idea."

Hatred flashed across Tang Xu's face.

Tang Xicheng pretended not to see it, "There was no assassination this time, just sent a few people to invite Luo Lingchuan away. He may have misunderstood and thought that those people wanted to kill him, so he sued the emperor."

"Father wants you to admit this matter, so he said that you asked someone to take Luo Lingchuan out of the barracks, and wanted to beat him up for revenge."

Tang Xicheng looked at Tang Xu's lower body, "If you say this, someone will believe it."

Because everyone knows how much a man cares about his own lifeblood, no matter what he does for this reason, it is justified.

"It's really a recycling of waste," Tang Xu sneered, "My son has learned the true face of father today."

When Tang Xicheng said that, his expression was naturally not good.

But he didn't get angry, and just continued to persuade: "Now the family may be charged with treason at any time. This is a serious crime against the nine clans. Don't you have the heart to watch the Tang family be destroyed?"

"Don't worry, father will take care of it from top to bottom. Even if the emperor is angry, he will only detain you for a few days. When the time comes, he will release you naturally. Father will not let you have any accidents."

"After you come out, let your mother arrange a marriage for you, so that you can have someone to talk to in the house. When your elder brother gets married later, his eldest son will adopt you."

Tang Xicheng promised all kinds of benefits, Tang Xu only felt ironic, "Have you finished?"

He asked, with only indifference remaining on his face, "For your Tang family, your sons and grandchildren are all in your schemes, you are really a filial son and grandson of the Tang family."

"Tang Xu!" Being ridiculed again, Tang Xicheng was also angry, "Do you think you can escape the charge of treason?"

"Don't forget, your surname is Tang, you have the blood of the Tang family on your body, your mother and I gave birth to you and raised you, but now you are just asking you to do such a small thing and you refuse to agree, you are worthy of our kindness ?!"

"Ah……"

Tang Xu raised the corner of his mouth, and suddenly pushed Tang Xicheng away forcefully, "Since I'm going to die, then I, as a son, will naturally accompany you and repay your kindness for life and nourishment!"

"But if you want me to take the blame for Tang Tuo, it's absolutely impossible."

On Tang Xu's face and eyes, there was only hatred.

After Tang Xicheng was pushed out, Tang Xu closed the door and fastened the latch. No matter how much Tang Xicheng knocked, he refused to open it, and he didn't say a word.

Tang Xicheng was furious, "If you have the ability to close the door, you'd better stay inside without eating or drinking for the rest of your life."

At the same time, he also ordered the servants who guarded the door, "Find a lock and lock the door. No one is allowed to open the door without my order, and no one is allowed to bring him food. It would be best for this unfilial son to starve to death."

Tang Xicheng came with guilt, and finally left angrily. The servants were naturally silent, not daring to ask or speak.

The news from the outside came back one after another. Tang Xicheng knew that Su Jingqing's plan was to push everything to the Tang family. There was no proof of those corpses. The Luo family also said that they were ordered by him to go to the military camp to find People, the Tang family can see that it is indisputable.

Not long after, the servants came to report again, saying that the emperor had summoned three elders and generals to enter the palace. It seemed that there were still people from the palace coming to the Tang family. Tang Xicheng felt a chill all over his body. A yellow-haired boy forced to do this.

"Where is the eldest son, go and see where he is?"

"Master, there are people in the palace, saying that the emperor hastened to call the master into the palace."

Someone from the other side came in at the same time and said, "My lord, His Royal Highness Yi Wang and the eldest son are back."

Tang Xicheng went out in a hurry, as long as Yi Wang was here, he could delay for a while so that he could tell his eldest son to do things.

When the members of the Tang family went to look for Xiao Yunyi and Tang Tuo, they roughly talked about what happened in Beijing, and after entering the city, they heard the people's discussions, and Xiao Yunyi's face was blackened on the spot.

After rushing back to Tang's house in a hurry, they ran into people from the palace again, so fast that they really didn't give them a chance.

Xiao Yunyi gritted his teeth, "It's that bitch Su Jingqing again, I should have drowned him that day!"

Tang Tuo knew that Princess Huai's revenge for falling into the water would definitely be avenged, but he didn't expect him to act so fast.

Originally, he thought that he would have to wait for Duke Huai to come back before doing anything.

And in order to reduce trouble, their best way is to let King Huai stay in Mizhou completely. Disasters are not so easy to relieve. There are plenty of ways to deal with the disease.

Now being caught off guard by Princess Huai made them passive.

Tang Tuo asked Yi Wang to help suppress the eunuch who came to pass the message for a while, and went to talk to his father himself.

Tang Xicheng then asked his son to change clothes, "Send someone to the yamen to find an opportunity to see if we can do something. As long as those people in the Luo family keep their mouths shut, things will be easy."

"If you don't come back for a long time as a father, it's better to ask your mother to persuade your younger brother than the whole family."

Tang Tuo's face was full of disbelief, "Father?"

Tang Xicheng patted him, "This is just a last resort, father, I believe you know how to judge."

After Tang Xicheng finished speaking, he asked his eldest son to go out, and changed into court clothes to enter the palace.

Xiao Yunyi didn't follow, and said to Tang Tuo: "You go to the yamen with me, the people in the yamen will have to sell me some face."

Xiao Yunyi went out of the city today to offer incense to Xu Ge's old granddaughter, something happened to the Qunfang Banquet, his mother and concubine were grounded, and now his father is dissatisfied with him, this princess can't count on them, so he can only do it himself.

It is an excellent opportunity for the Xu family to go to offer incense today, as long as people are attracted to him, he is not afraid that the Xu family will not want it.

It was just that they had just made progress when they were interrupted by the people who came looking for them.

Xiao Yunyi was so angry that he wanted to kill someone. Su Jingqing, that bitch, was his nemesis. He repeatedly spoiled his good deeds. When he fell into his hands, he would definitely crush that bitch to ashes!

Xiao Yunyi hated Su Jingqing anxiously, thinking how to embarrass Su Jingqing when he got to the government office.

Tang Tuo saw what was going on in his mind, and was a little worried, feeling that the current King Yi was too irritable, and was often led by the nose by Princess Huai.

They were already at a disadvantage right now, and they wanted to expect Princess Huai to show her noble hand. If Prince Yi disrespected Princess Huai and caused trouble again, he might be grounded like Concubine Zhong Gui.

What was even more frightening was that Princess Huai knew that King Yi would not be solved for a while, so she would not set her sights on King Yi, and would only target the Tang family. Tang Tuo wanted to leave a way for her family to survive.

"Your Highness," Tang Tuo persuaded, "for a while, the prince must not target Princess Huai. If something happens to Princess Huai, the emperor will not be able to explain it."

Thinking of the emperor's recent attitude towards him, Xiao Yunyi's heart burned even hotter, "Su Jingqing is really a good trick, not to mention win over Xiao Beihuai, but even the emperor is partial to him, is he the reincarnation of a vixen?"

"My lord, be careful with your words!" Tang Tuo reminded, "Be careful that walls have ears."

Xiao Yunyi wanted to say that he was not afraid, but Tang Tuo reminded him to think about the imperial concubine, so Xiao Yunyi shut up.

His father really loved Xiao Beihuai, and he was really cruel to himself and his mother.

Xiao Yunyi's eyes flashed coldly, and he ordered Tang Tuo, "No matter what method you think of, the military power of the [-] garrisons must be obtained. Only when the military power is in the hands of this king, will the position be my king's."

Xiao Yunyi knew that his good father would never make him the crown prince and let him ascend the throne.

Since the old thing refused to give, he fought for it himself.

"As soon as the military power is in hand, notify the people in Mizhou to get rid of Xiao Beihuai immediately!"

Tang Tuo moved his mouth, but he didn't say anything, he just nodded and said hello.

Seeing him like this, Xiao Yunyi thought he was worried that something would happen this time, so he stopped talking about his bold words, patted Tang Tuo on the shoulder, and comforted him: "Don't worry, with this king here, nothing will happen to your Tang family."

"You didn't do it, and my father wouldn't believe Su Jingqing's little trick."

Tang Tuo didn't explain either, he knew that King Yi didn't understand, the emperor didn't believe in some tricks, he believed in the ambition of their Tang family.

General Jin Wu, who is in charge of patrolling the capital, wants to hold the military power of another [-] troops in his hands. Will the emperor not be able to guess what their Tang family wants to do?

Now that he guessed it, how could the emperor continue to tolerate the Tang family.

After all, they underestimated Princess Huai.

Soon, the government office arrived.

Xiao Yunyi's status is distinguished, and Fu Yin personally came out to greet him.

The returned corpses were parked outside the court before they were sent to the autopsy room, and the prefect was interrogating the Luo family's offshoots.

Su Jingqing sat and listened, with a pot of charcoal fire in front of him.

As soon as Xiao Yunyi saw Su Jingqing, he couldn't help but want to sneer, but he kept his mouth shut during the charcoal fire, and didn't go forward to salute Su Jingqing.

"Master Chen's mansion is very lively," Xiao Yunyi aimed at the governor.

Fu Yin smiled apologetically, "The lord was joking, but something happened today. I don't know what orders the lord came here for?"

Xiao Yunyi glanced at the few people kneeling on the ground, "I heard on the street that someone attacked the camp in the suburbs of Beijing, so I came here to see what these daring thieves look like."

Xiao Yunyi pointed to the corpses outside, "Master Chen killed all of these? Master Chen is so smart, so why didn't these people be killed together? Are you keeping them to continue plotting rebellion?"

Chen Qian quickly explained, "My lord, these corpses were sent by Princess Huai, not by lower officials."

"As for these few, the lower officials are trying to interrogate their masterminds. Such a serious crime of treason cannot be done by a few weak scholars."

"So that's the case, did Master Chen find out anything?" Xiao Yunyi asked.

Chen Qian glanced at Tang Tuo beside Xiao Yunyi, "There are some clues."

It cannot be concealed that the offshoot of the Luo family is related to the Tang family, but it depends on what they do.

Of course, the most troublesome thing is the corpses outside.

"Then can I let this king see the clues Mr. Chen asked?"

Chen Qian looked back at Su Jingqing with hesitation on his face, "This..."

When Xiao Yunyi saw his movements, he laughed, "What? It's not Mr. Chen who decides the capital yamen, but depends on the faces of others?"

"In other words, the result of Mr. Chen's interrogation was also instigated by someone to try to frame someone?"
