After I became a widow

The fact that Xiao Beihuai went to trouble Xiao Yunyi when he returned to Beijing was regarded by the officials in the capital as a threat, and they felt that he was killing a chicken for a monkey to see, and the next step was to deal with these officials.

Earlier, because the national teacher was implicated, although the emperor was angry, he didn't really kill many people. He only cut off the official position of the highest and most greedy person, and then stretched his hand into the palace and his concubine's womb The national teacher in China was grounded.

For the first time, the emperor expressed dissatisfaction with the national teacher, and asked the national teacher to train the next national teacher to take over his position as soon as possible, which is tantamount to abolishing the person.

This round is considered to be a loss for both sides, but if the person is alive, the injury is not serious, and they are satisfied with a little blood.

Of course, it was also because someone was mediating a peace in the middle, telling them not to fall for Duke Huai's tricks, that this situation was achieved.

Then they tried to prevent Duke Huai from returning to the capital, but Duke Huai was too cunning and surrounded by many guards, so they didn't succeed.

They kept a close eye on Duke Huai, for fear that Duke Huai would attack them in the next step.

It turned out that Duke Huai and his wife unexpectedly started arguing with the emperor.

Although it will be reconciled soon.

This time the father and son fought, both sides were unharmed, only Concubine Zhong Gui and Yi Wang's mother and son who were implicated in it were more miserable. The mother and son were held in the water by King Huai. Beat.

However, King Huai targeted Queen Yi's mother and son in this way, and the emperor had no intention of punishing King Huai at all. People lamented that the emperor really doted on Prince Huai and at the same time felt sympathy for Queen Yi's mother and son.

He really wanted to fan the flames and let King Yi and Concubine Zhong Gui fight to the death with King Huai.

They had the guts to think, but Xiao Yunyi and Concubine Zhong did not dare, especially Concubine Zhong.

What happened in Concubine Zhong's Changxin Palace that day, only four people knew about it, the Son of Heaven, Xiao Beihuai, Xu Cai who was serving at the side, and Concubine Zhong herself.

Since Xiao Beihuai said he was going to mess around, it was impossible to expose the matter lightly. After entering Changxin Palace, he kicked out the palace people, leaving only Concubine Zhong Guifei. Abolished Concubine Zhong Gui, and was stopped by the emperor who followed behind.

The emperor asked him what he wanted to be satisfied, and before Xiao Beihuai could speak, he added a sentence to let Concubine Zhong be alive.

Things would be easy after that, Xiao Beihuai cut Concubine Zhong's wrist with a piece of porcelain in front of the emperor, and then ordered Xu Cai to bring water, specifically asking for a larger basin and more water.

Concubine Zhong Gui burst into tears and cried in pain, begging the emperor to save her, but the emperor did not move, let alone stop Xiao Beihuai.

The blood dripping from Concubine Zhong's wrist was not wasted at all, Xiao Beihuai poured it into the basin, the next moment he held Concubine Zhong, and pressed her head into the copper basin.

The copper basin was bubbling and bubbling, but Xiao Beihuai didn't let go, until Concubine Zhong Gui, who had been held down by him, began to lose strength, and then lifted him up, giving Concubine Zhong a chance to breathe.

Then, just like how Xiao Beihuai treated Xiao Yunyi, he pushed the person into the basin again, repeatedly tossing until Concubine Zhong became soft into a puddle of mud, and was thrown on the ground by Xiao Beihuai.

Xiao Beihuai told the emperor, "I didn't get rid of her today to avenge the concubine. Guess who am I avenging?"

The emperor didn't speak, just sullen.

Whether it was hurt by Xiao Beihuai's words outside the door, or he really indulged him again, the emperor didn't think about Concubine Zhong Gui at all this time, and even asked Xiao Beihuai if he had done enough nonsense.

Xiao Beihuai just laughed, "One dead body, two lives, it's not as simple as that."

The Son of Heaven trembled, as if he was in great pain, and when he looked up again, his eyes were red, as if his vitality had been sucked away.

Xiao Beihuai also explained to the Son of Heaven, "Originally, I planned to do it before you died, and I just wanted her to be buried with you, so that you can be ghosts without separation, and you will feel less pain at that time."

"But if you want to force me, then you can only..." Xiao Beihuai pointed to Concubine Zhong Gui on the ground, the meaning was self-evident.

The emperor took a deep breath and sighed, "You were young back then, so you didn't know the truth of the matter. The matter did have something to do with the imperial concubine, but it wasn't entirely her fault."

"I know you have resentment in your heart, since you want to put all the blame on the noble concubine, then forget it, I will obey you."

"Oh," Xiao Beihuai sneered, "I didn't understand for a while, whether you have feelings for Zhong Mei or no feelings."

Hurriedly rushing over, but being indifferent to the fact that he tortured Zhong Mei, and allowing himself to vent his hatred, is really a king's heart, elusive.

The emperor replied: "A concubine is a concubine after all. No matter how much I dote on her and care about her, I will not let her go past your mother. You are a legitimate son with a higher status than her. If you want to dispose of her, no one but me can say a word." no."

"It's just that I should hand over the person to you, and you have to promise me one thing," the emperor began to make a condition.

"Su Jingqing doesn't understand the injustice of high and low. I don't need to punish him, and I don't implicate the Su family, but you have to be sensible and leave an heir. I plan to give you an equal wife. You will inherit the throne in the future. You can't No offspring."

The Son of Heaven's behavior at this moment clearly indicated that the life of his favorite concubine was not as important as Xiao Beihuai's future.

Of course, things didn't come to an end, Xiao Beihuai's moving Concubine Zhong today was to tell the emperor that he would not let the emperor manipulate him, and the emperor would never want to arrange people around him, let alone move his people.

Concubine Zhong Gui, he must be killed, sooner or later is fine, now it is just a lesson, there is no need to make a deal with the emperor.

Xiao Beihuai went straight out of Changxin Palace, and asked the palace servants of Changxin Palace to say something to Concubine Zhong Guifei and Xiao Yunyi, "If you dare to make trouble again, the old and new accounts will be settled together, and this king wants them to die without a place to bury them!"

The Son of Heaven still didn't accuse Xiao Beihuai of anything, he just asked the imperial physician to prescribe medicine for Concubine Zhong Gui, so that Concubine Zhong could be raised with peace of mind, and then he also left Changxin Palace.

The distance between him and Xiao Beihuai is not far or close, and he can clearly know what Xiao Beihuai did. First, he went outside his study to pick up Su Jingqing, and then the two of them went to greet the queen mother together, and saw the two little princesses, When it was over, he went out of the palace directly, without any intention of coming to say hello to him.

The Son of Heaven sighed a long time, didn't say anything, and didn't order to punish Xiao Beihuai, even forgetting about punishing Su Jingqing.

In the past few days, if you don't look at the surging undercurrents, at least the surface is peaceful.

It is the attitude of the emperor, which is really unpredictable.

Even Su Jingqing didn't understand, the emperor was furious, tossing about why and what was going on.

He asked Xiao Beihuai, Xiao Beihuai only said: "He owes this king."

No matter how many outrageous things he has done in these years, the emperor has never punished him, not because the emperor loves him so much, but because the emperor has a guilty conscience.

When his mother passed away, he was no longer considered young, and he knew very well what the emperor had deliberately kept from him.

"He has too few sons. I'm afraid that this king will not inherit the throne after killing his other son. He will not be able to explain to the ancestors of the Xiao family after he dies."

The Son of Heaven had mentioned in front of Xiao Beihuai many times that he wanted to make him the crown prince, and what he would do after he succeeded to the throne, but Xiao Beihuai never agreed.

As long as he doesn't agree, the emperor will be afraid, and only when he is afraid will he compromise.

"Look, this is the benefit of having fewer sons."

"Speaking of which, I have to thank Concubine Zhong Gui," Xiao Beihuai's tone became colder, "If it wasn't for her, I would have many competitors."

When mentioning Concubine Zhong Gui again, Xiao Beihuai's hatred obviously increased a lot.

Su Jingqing remembered what he had found out from Ye Lanzhi's mouth, Queen Ye, who was strong in figure and strong in martial arts, guessed that the cause of Queen Ye's death should be related to Concubine Zhong Gui, and this time entering the palace, Xiao Beihuai himself or the emperor touched this ban.

The imperial palace never lacks secrets and lovers.

It is the emperor who keeps saying that he loves Queen Ye, that Queen Ye is his only business, but he can't protect his beloved. Apart from being incompetent, he is also hateful.

Whoever asked those concubines was also taken by the emperor himself.

It's no wonder Xiao Beihuai hates taking concubines so much, it's the first time men in their twenties have sex when they meet him.

Su Jingqing answered, "We should thank her, let's go to the palace every now and then to see her."

Su Jingqing doesn't hate going to the palace anymore.

In dealing with Concubine Zhong, they can be more unscrupulous, as long as these people don't expect Concubine Zhong to die early, they probably won't be impeached.

After all, for such a serious crime as murdering a queen, ransacking the family and exterminating the family is not an exaggeration. The Zhong family should not be generous enough to pay for the lives of the whole family to seek justice for a person who is doomed to die.

Concubine Zhong Guifei and Xiao Yunyi couldn't make waves for the time being, and they didn't dare to hold back, so next, "Is it the national teacher or the minister?"

People who the emperor is reluctant to kill, they come.

The imperial court is not so short of people, and the aristocratic families have never really been single-minded. Only when someone goes down can there be a place for new people to come up.

"National teacher, there are few people," Xiao Beihuai said.

Su Jingqing had no objection, but was just curious, "Do you think the national teacher is a man in black?"

"You'll know when you go and meet," Xiao Beihuai squeezed Su Jingqing's fingers, and teased, "Isn't my concubine able to recognize people from a distance?"

"That's right," Su Jingqing nodded, "I can't bury this ancestral skill of mine."

There are no delays, and the emperor doesn't bother, so life is much more comfortable.

Su Jingqing and Xiao Beihuai also ran back to Su's house to eat a few meals, and they always felt that the food in Su's house was more delicious.

I went again today, and after eating, Su Mingyan came over mysteriously, as if I had something to say.

Su Jingqing casually asked Siyan to grab a handful of melon seeds for him, kowtowed and waited for Su Mingyan to say something.

Su Mingyan opened his mouth, and blushed before he could speak, looking shy.

Su Jingqing raised his eyebrows slightly, and roughly guessed, "A good thing is coming soon?"

"En!" Su Mingyan nodded heavily, "Sister asked me to ask my mother to find someone to come to propose marriage." Male style

Su Jingqing just laughed and teased him, "Which sister?"

"It's the sister of the Gu family." Su Mingyan was very shy, but explained very seriously, "We have agreed, I will only call her sister from now on, big brother, don't laugh at me."

"Okay, I don't laugh at you, our family, Ah Yan, has grown up and is going to get married."

"It's still early, and my mother hasn't asked anyone to come to propose marriage."

But Su Mingyan was obviously excited, and whispered to Su Jingqing about his sister Gu helping him to avenge while they were not in the capital.

Gu Xinruo did what he said, and he really beat Xiao Yunyi to vent his anger on Su Mingyan.

Knowing the betrayal of the Tang family, King Yi was depressed for a while. He either drank in his own palace or went out to drink all day long. Although he was always accompanied by waiters, it was inevitable that when he was negligent, Gu Xinruo found him. This is a chance for my brother to punch Xiao Yunyi a few times, on the body, and where it is not easy to leave traces.

At the end, Gu Xinruo pushed the other person to the ground, fell to the ground, and the brother and sister took the opportunity to escape.

After all, Xiao Yunyi's status is special, so he can't strike too harshly, but such a lesson can be regarded as venting his anger.

Su Mingyan was very happy, being coaxed by Gu Xinruo to call her older sister, he agreed without even thinking about it, yelling and even compensating himself.

The relationship between the two is obviously dominated by Gu Xinruo, and his stupid younger brother can only cooperate.

"Then did your sister Gu say she liked you?"

Su Mingyan held her face together, with a cute face, "She said she likes me and be good."

Come on, Su Jingqing can't refute this point, Su Mingyan is indeed very good.

"You've got a big advantage." Compared with the Gu family, the Su family is absolutely superior, and Gu Xinruo, the young lady of the Gu family, has good looks, body, talent and skills. If she can fall in love with his stupid brother, she can only say Fortune favors fools.

Su Mingyan nodded in agreement, "Father and mother also said the same, but I will treat my sister well."

He is not smart enough, but the Su family has never expected him to make contributions, so he needs to live in peace with his sister, and it is enough to tie all his heart to her.

The Su family has no heartbreakers, Su Jingqing believed in him, and promised: "When you get married, my eldest brother will give you a generous gift."
