Elder brother is BOSS[Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 148 10.11
The handsome young master in brocade clothes sat at the table, although there was a smile on his face, his eyes were full of impatience.
Because of displeasure, he lowered his voice, pretended to be indifferent, and tried his best to speak gently, "Brother Zhuo was also wearing a mask at the dinner table, so he didn't take Su Mou too seriously."
The face of the person on the opposite side was covered tightly by a silver iron mask, so he couldn't see clearly.However, the exposed neck and wrists are indeed slender and flawless, like the finest mutton fat jade. Thinking about the face under the mask, as long as it is not too hideous, it can be called a handsome man.
The mysterious man with the mask on his face looks to be at most 20 years old.No one would have imagined that without this person who was born as an orphan and without the slightest background, he could build several silver houses in just a few years with his handicapped body and become one of the richest businessmen in Dongling.
This man named Zhuo Yi is indeed a disabled person.
He is missing a left leg than others.
Zhuo Yi said indifferently: "Why does Mr. Su put Zhuo in his eyes? There are so many people who want to cooperate with Zhuo. Mr. Su hides a lot, which is the most taboo in business. Zhuo is afraid of losing money. Come back."
Su Ji laughed loudly, "I'm afraid Brother Zhuo won't dare to do it after I say it!"
Zhuo Yi's tone remained calm, "Mr. Su might as well talk about it."
Su Ji said, "Brother Zhuo thinks, how much money can you buy the Ling Kingdom? If you own the Ling Kingdom, how much money can you produce?"
Zhuo Yi raised her eyes and met him through the mask.
Su Ji found that the young rich businessman in front of him had a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, like a pot of sweet tea brewed from a good mountain spring, without the slightest impurity, clear and lingering fragrance, not bitter It will be boring.
This pair of eyes seemed familiar, but when you think about it carefully, the narrow and long pupils are different from anyone you've seen before.
Su Ji suppressed the inexplicable sense of familiarity, and waited for Zhuo Yi's answer with great interest.
Zhuo Yi said: "The new king succeeds, money may not be able to buy him."
Su Ji said: "Most of the officials in the DPRK and China can be driven by money."
Zhuo Yi tapped the table with her hand, and repeated what she said just now in a firm tone, "Money can't buy it."
"Brother Yi Zhuo, what can I buy?"
Through the mask, Zhuo Yi's voice was cold and emotionless, and she slowly uttered a word.
"Fate." He said, "Buy with your life, this deal has a three-point chance of success. The risk is too great, Zhuo can't afford it."
Su Ji left in a rage.
Zhuo Yi took off the mask, revealing a face similar to Su Ji's, this is Su Shao's adult appearance.
Su Shao is still 13 years old now, living in the palace without knowing the sufferings of the world.
Su Chen has only been enthroned for less than ten days. He has been a prince for a long time, and it is not easy to deal with the affairs of state.But the complicated things are enough for him to be busy for a while, and he has no energy to arrest the fugitive rebel Su Ji for the time being.
"Zhuoyi" is Su Shao's puppet.
In the past worlds, the living backgrounds of Su Yi and Zhuo Yi are the most similar to those of the present. The name Su Yi is not a serious name at first glance, and Su Shao does not hesitate to use the latter's name.
Both remember a difficult time, struggling to survive at the bottom of society.Zhuo Yi also lived with Wei Wang Li Changze and managed the sect. His experience is enough for Su Shao to make some achievements with the broken puppet.
Moreover, the puppets don’t need to eat, can’t sense the temperature, can neither be cold nor hot, and don’t get sick, which saves a lot of expenses at the beginning of starting a business.
This is the way Su Shao left for himself, he can't stay in the palace, he can run away at any time.
Unexpectedly, Su Ji found it by himself.
Su Shao was reluctant to give up this identity.Su Ji changed his name, disguised his identity, and did not show his flaws. If he reported someone and arrested him, he would definitely be interrogated.
Su Shao greeted his subordinates and stared at Su Ji carefully.And tell them that if something is wrong, report it to the authorities immediately.Reasonable, convincing, enough to disassociate the relationship.
On the other side, Su Shao in the palace was made king in advance, but the palace has not been built yet, so he still has to live in the palace.
The elder brother of the prince is now the elder brother of the emperor. He is very busy all day long, and his majesty is getting more and more serious day by day.When Su Shao saw him occasionally, he felt that Su Chen seemed to be a different person. The gentle smile on his face was no longer there, and his whole person was much colder.
Empress Zhu became Empress Dowager Zhu and moved from Taiji Hall to Chang'an Palace.She said to Su Shao, Your Majesty is building his prestige, don't alienate him because of this, and when he grows up, he can keep close to His Majesty, and he will get more benefits.
Su Shao felt that Empress Dowager Zhu was actually a bit similar to the way of thinking of the first emperor.She thought that Su Shao had a good temper and would not compete with the other sons, and the sons would treat him well as brothers.But she never thought that even a couple who are extremely close may have conflicts, let alone brothers.
After hearing Su Yue's crazy words, Su Shao felt that he didn't know enough about his brothers.Who knows what kind of people they are behind the scenes?
A big event happened in the palace.
It was only a few months after the late emperor passed away, and the concubines who had princes all went to the fief with the prince, and the rest were sent to the Taimiao to chant scriptures and worship Buddha, but they survived.
Everything was well arranged, but when people were sent to invite the concubines to leave, the always low-key beauty Wang suddenly made a noise, insisting on seeing the empress dowager.
Now that she has a family, the former concubine was promoted to empress, and she took over Fengyin from the Empress Dowager Zhu to manage the affairs of the harem.Compared with the concubines, the empress is a generation shorter after all, so it is not easy to intervene.However, if there is any noise in the palace, the news will spread quickly. It is not difficult for the empress to know about it, and she will understand the reason after a little inquiring.
Wang Meiren didn't want to go to Taimiao, revealing her extraordinary relationship with Yi Wang Suyue.
Afraid of being secretly executed by Queen Mother Zhu, she purposely made the matter public, in order to let everyone know, so that the Queen Mother would be jealous, and it would be best to call Su Yue over to confront her personally.
She was not favored, and the first emperor might not even remember that there was such a person.Wang Mei's status is not high, and there are not many people around her, so it's not difficult to avoid other people's eyes and ears and have a secret relationship with Su Yue.After Su Yue moved out of the palace, she still had no connection with her, which also gave Wang Meiren a sense of confidence.
His Royal Highness King Yi must have her in his heart, otherwise he would not still be childless.
If they were sent to Taimiao, they would not be able to see Su Yue.Moreover, she is no longer the favored concubine in the palace, and the cost of food and clothing will also be reduced. Her status is low, and she might be vented by the empress who was once favored.With hope completely cut off, what's the point of living in poverty?
It's better to give it a go, King Yi will never let it go!He has a deep relationship with His Majesty, and if she can ask for a favor, she can be released from the deep palace.
Su Yue sent the news through Xing'er beside him, and just contacted Su Ji, so he couldn't gain his trust immediately.He was confident that it was only a matter of time, so he started to work on the power in his hands first, he was very busy every day, and he had to show leisure in front of his brother.
He did it with relish, but he was summoned to the palace before he could get things on the right track.
Su Yue's mind was turned, and he went through the small movements of his subordinates bit by bit, making sure that there was no clue left.
There were not many people in Changle Palace, but everyone looked solemn.
Su Yue knew that whenever something important happened, the palace people would be cautious and silent, for fear of offending the master and being punished.
The last time when the Empress Dowager Zhu called to Tai Chi Hall to announce the news of His Majesty's death, the expressions of the palace people were also like this.
Su Yue settled down, put on a smile again, and entered the hall with steady steps.
He had inquired with the servants outside just now, but it was a pity that the servants outside did not know as much as those who served the master, so he hesitated and couldn't speak.Su Yue didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him, but when he thought too much, he became more confident.
His Majesty sat at the main seat, flanked by the Empress Dowager Zhu and the Empress.His youngest brother sat beside his mother with a dazed expression, and a beautiful concubine knelt below him.
Taking a closer look, Su Yue realized that she looked very familiar.
With just the right amount of bewilderment, he bowed to the big brothers, glanced at the weeping beauty Wang, and asked: "The queen mother and the emperor's brother called me over for such a big battle, what happened? "
"Your Highness..." Wang Meiren called him sadly.
She was wearing a plain dress, which was in line with what she wore during the filial piety period, and perfectly displayed her delicate temperament.The women present all knew what Wang Meiren was up to, so they could only wait for Su Yue to speak with an ugly expression.
"Please respect yourself." Su Yue avoided her movements, "Mom, what's the matter?"
Empress Dowager Zhu was very angry and didn't want to repeat it, she said to His Majesty: "Chen'er, tell me."
His Majesty didn't want to go against his mother's wishes, so he repeated Wang Meiren's words.In order to take care of Thirteenth Brother's ability to understand, he purposely spoke clearly.
Su Shao sat on the side silently, feeling a little uneasy.
Judging by Su Yue's appearance, he will definitely not be responsible for Wang Meiren.He came here because he was involved in Wang Meiren's words, and he planned to use what he saw when he was young to prove their relationship.It would be a good thing if he could take the opportunity to beat Su Yue, so as to save him from having to worry about it later.
After His Majesty finished speaking, he looked at Su Yue and asked blankly, "Fifth Brother, do you have something to say?"
Su Yue sneered, "It's just nonsense! If I really had an affair with the concubine for nine years, how could no one find out? Besides, nine years ago, my younger brother was only 15 years old. Such an outrageous thing?"
Wang Meiren looked at him incredulously, her body crumbling, "His Royal Highness... after you left the palace, the correspondence between you and my concubine is still preserved to this day. The concubine is sincere to your highness, the previous emperor never favored my concubine." , I just ask Your Majesty to give this concubine a chance and let her out of the palace!"
Su Yue kept scolding this woman for being stupid.
How come I didn't realize she was so stupid before?
The emperor was given a cuckold. Not long after the first emperor passed away, it was time for the new emperor to stabilize the hearts of the people.What kind of emperor is reliable?Naturally, he is tolerant and kind, and he is decisive in dealing with things, and the most important point is "filial piety".
If something like this happened during the filial piety period, since I am the younger brother of His Majesty and the son of the Empress Dowager, it is fine to lose my official position and be demoted to a noble. If my reputation is bad, it will be difficult to maintain.And this woman, does she really think she can get something for her?I am afraid that I will be executed directly, so I will go down to accompany the late emperor.
Su Yue was still at a loss, he put on a gentle look, and smiled awkwardly at Wang Meiren, "Why did the concubine say such things? And why did she hold on to me so tightly? I thought I only had a few encounters with the concubine. , I don’t have much contact. The concubine poured dirty water on me like this, my reputation is small, where will the concubine let the emperor’s face go?”
Wang Meiren heard that he was going to deny it to the end, the tears flowed more happily, and there was no longer only sadness in her beautiful eyes, and hatred gradually arose, she kowtowed to the majesty and the queen mother, "If your majesty and empress don't believe it, concubine There are also witnesses and physical evidence!"
There was a hint of mockery in Su Yue's eyes, "The letters you communicate with can be faked... witnesses, could it be some servants in the toffee's palace?"
Wang Meiren said with a sad smile: "Your Highness may have forgotten that eight years ago, His Highness the Thirteenth Prince went to play in His Highness's bedroom and took a nap for a while. At that time, the concubine was behind the screen with His Highness, and did not hide it like His Highness Thirteenth."
Su Chen frowned, and asked Su Shao, "Is there such a thing?"
Su Shao raised his head blankly and frowned.
Su Chen said: "Just tell the truth, you don't need to save face for your Fifth Brother. If he really does something dirty, I will definitely punish him!"
"I..." As soon as Su Shao opened his mouth, everyone's eyes were on him, "But I didn't see the concubine."
Queen Mother Zhu remembered that day, Su Shao specifically mentioned to her that Su Yue's private life was chaotic, and he prostituted himself during the day.She didn't think about it at the time. When it was time for a teenager to grow up, she just sent someone to remind him not to go too far.
But she never thought that the person who messed with Su Yue would be her husband's concubine.
If she had known earlier, she would never have allowed Wang Meiren to live till now!
I wish the Empress Dowager was too regretful, but also a little lucky.Fortunately, Su Shao was naive and ignorant, so he didn't leave a bad impression on him.If the son feels disgusted from now on, he will have to add another one to the hardships he has to worry about.
After Su Shao finished speaking, Su Yue immediately said: "Thirteenth brother really liked to go to the prince's place when he was young. Since Thirteenth brother has never seen the concubine, it is not enough to be a witness." Although his younger brother is stupid, But knowing how to protect his brother, Su Yue couldn't help feeling more confident, and quietly looked at Wang Meiren with more sinister and disgusting eyes.
Only now did Wang Meiren realize how ridiculous the glimmer of hope in her heart was.
Nine years of friendship is not enough for Su Yue to put her in his heart.She didn't see through Su Yue from the beginning to the end, even though His Highness the Fifth Highness was only 15 years old at that time.
Wang Meiren knew that she couldn't survive, and seeing Su Yue's ruthless and complacent eyes, the hatred in her heart became stronger and stronger.She really wanted to drag this noble prince and go to hell with her.
Since we can't live together, let's die together, it's better than staying with a group of perverted women in the temple and dying.
Wang Meiren raised her head, she became a little more determined, "Your Majesty and Empress, no matter what, you won't believe my concubine's words, will you? Concubine can submit a letter. Please send someone to search the concubine's bedroom."
His Majesty also sighed, if possible, who would want to ruin the reputation of his father and brother?He was not destined to do justice to the matter.He waved his hand and said to the eunuch who was following him, "Send someone to search."
Wang Meiren was overjoyed and kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
She seemed to have hope again, no longer as eager as before.She Yingying said, "Empress Dowager, this concubine is sorry for the late emperor. No matter how the matter is settled, concubine's deeds are not worthy of forgiveness. It's just that concubine really wants a word from His Highness Yi Wang. Concubine knows that she is greedy, It's just a matter of feelings, it's really out of control. Two trade-offs, His Royal Highness Yi's promise to the concubine is more important than the humble life of the concubine."
Queen Mother Zhu did not answer.
Wang Meiren smiled to herself, "My concubine is a little thirsty, can I give my concubine a cup of tea?"
Empress Zhu waved her hand and asked Yingshui to pour a cup of tea for her, "Stop kneeling, stand up and talk."
"Thank you, Aunt Yingshui." Wang Meiren stood up slowly, looked at Yingshui with gentle and envious eyes, and after the tea in her hand, she lifted the lid of the cup and took a sip, "The tea smells so good. "
Su Shao felt that something was wrong with her, so he quietly stretched his hand behind and tugged on Queen Mother Zhu's clothes.Empress Dowager Zhu turned her face to look at him, and said with a sigh: "Who is right and who is wrong, how can we tell clearly?"
"Mother……"
With a "snap", the teacup fell to the ground.Wang Meiren's movements were many times faster than before, and she immediately picked up a piece of debris. Just when everyone thought she was going to kill herself, she rushed to Su Yue's side, with a ferocious expression on her face.
Su Yue couldn't react in time and was caught by her.Wang Meiren took the porcelain piece and pestered Su Yue's neck, and blood rushed out, soaking Su Yue's chest pad.
The female family members screamed, and Su Chen was the first to react, "Come here! Take down Wang Taifei, and call the imperial doctor!"
Su Yue clutched his neck, his face was pale, and he seemed to be unable to stand still.
Su Shao hurried to him and helped him hold down the blood vessel to prevent the blood from flowing too fast.Wang Meiren's movements were unskilled, and the wound cut by the porcelain plate was deep, but the artery was not injured.I just don't know if such an injury can be cured with the ancient medical level.
"Fifth brother... Fifth brother, don't sleep." Su Shao shouted to Su Yue, "The bet we made has not yet been completed. The prince brother ascended the throne, I won, you have to give me the bet. You didn't say you would What's the bet, let me mention it myself? I don't want you to sleep!"
"Ahem..." Su Yue rested his pillow on Su Shao's arm, quite amused: "Why are you... so noisy..."
As soon as he spoke, blood flowed from his mouth immediately.It looked scary.
"Stop talking!" Su Chen and Empress Dowager Zhu also came to Su Yue's side, they didn't dare to move his body, they could only anxiously wait for the imperial doctor to come over.
Su Yue saw the concern in Su Chen's eyes. At this time, he still maintained his rationality and was still calculating in his heart whether Su Chen was just pretending or really cared about him.
In the end he had to admit that the eldest brother was indeed more affectionate than the second brother.
Su Yue sighed and slowly closed his eyes.
After the imperial physician arrived, he bandaged the wound with ointment and bandages, and prescribed medicine to invigorate Qi and blood.Suyue's situation is too critical, such a large wound can easily be infected.There is no tetanus shot in this era, and once you have a fever, you can only survive on your own.
The Empress Dowager Zhu was used to the battles in the harem, and when it was her son's turn, she still felt chills in her heart.
After treating Su Yue, she ordered to go down and thoroughly investigate who Wang Meiren had contacted before.
She didn't believe that most people would do such a big thing after careful consideration.But even Su Yue didn't know, and Wang Meiren didn't have a perfect plan, presumably it was a sudden decision.Someone must have abetted her!
As long as the investigation is in the right direction, nothing will be found.
Queen Mother Zhu really found out the people who had close contact with Wang Meiren.
Unexpectedly, that person was none other than her own son, Su Yue's younger brother, Ninth Prince Su Qing.
Before the eldest son took over the power, she had to go through all kinds of twists and turns, but now everything is peaceful, but the few children still haven't stopped fighting.
The queen mother has four children in total. After knowing that Su Qing did it, she suddenly aged a lot.
It seems that something has been done wrong to make the children what they are now.
Su Yue failed to survive the high fever and died the next night.
Queen Mother Zhu didn't let Su Shao go back, but took him by her side.She called Su Qing in, and she was not afraid of being known by Su Shao. In front of her youngest son, she asked Xiao Jiu wearily: "Why? Why did you do this?"
Su Qing is completely different from before.He is slender and thin, and his face is pale and bloodless, as if he will lose his vitality in the next second, completely different from the tiger-headed and tiger-headed appearance when he was a child.
After hearing Queen Mother Zhu's words, Su Qing twitched the corners of his mouth and said with a stiff smile: "I never thought that Mrs. Wang would be so cruel and kill Fifth Brother in front of so many people. It's a pity..."
Empress Dowager Zhu was overwhelmed by his tone, slapped the table angrily, and asked loudly: "Su Qing! Do you have any heart! That's your own brother!"
Su Shao appeased Queen Mother Zhu at a loss, and was also curious about why Su Qing would do this.
Su Qing looked at Empress Dowager Zhu coldly. From the very beginning, he didn't pay attention to Su Shao, as if he couldn't see him.
"Su Chen is your son, Su Yue is your son, and Su Shao is also your son. The others are all ants at the mercy of others!" His eyes suddenly turned red, and he frowned and pointed at Su Shao: "So Su Lin deserves to be killed by him! I deserve to be alone too! You only care about your 'good and sensible' son, why have you ever cared about me!"
He turned his head to look at Su Shao angrily, "I really hate you, why do you get everything without doing anything? Su Lin, he has nothing, he humbled and begged, but ended up like that in the end! Without you , I will be my mother's most beloved son, and Su Lin doesn't have to act like a slave, begging to see her father!"
Many princes know about Su Yue and Wang Meiren.Third Highness Su Chi once reminded Su Shao to stay away from Su Yue.Su Yue is not as romantic as the surface, his mind is deeper than anyone else.It's just that he is too shrewd, instead he has no interest in competing with others, and he has enough power to protect himself, so he can live until now.
Su Qing asked Meiren Wang to "surrender herself" because she wanted Su Shao to testify against her, so that Su Yue would hold her grudges.He knew that it would not be difficult to kill Su Shao with Su Yue's methods.
Who would have thought that such a person would die on a porcelain tablet in the hands of a weak woman?
"Bastard!" The Empress Dowager Zhu was shaking with anger, "The person who killed Su Lin was not sent by Shao'er. If you are unwilling, just tell it directly. Why bother your brother!"
"I can't let it go." Su Qing said, "Su Lin has protected me for so many years. He helped me understand the words and tricks in the palace and taught me how to survive in the palace. How much I want to take him to join the military camp when I grow up. He wanted to join the army, and I fought in front. But he died just like that! You let me down! You and the emperor refused to thoroughly investigate the real culprit, besides Su Shao and myself, who else can I hate!"
"Ninth brother... I'm sorry." Apart from apologizing, Su Shao didn't know what to say.
Queen Mother Zhu sneered, "The real culprit? Hmph. Who do you think Su Lin is? How sincere is he in everything he has done to you? You are the fool who has been fooled by him all the time."
"He's my younger brother." Su Qing was very repulsed by Queen Mother Zhu's attitude of not treating the children of other concubines as children.
"He's not." The Empress Dowager Zhu said coldly.
Because of displeasure, he lowered his voice, pretended to be indifferent, and tried his best to speak gently, "Brother Zhuo was also wearing a mask at the dinner table, so he didn't take Su Mou too seriously."
The face of the person on the opposite side was covered tightly by a silver iron mask, so he couldn't see clearly.However, the exposed neck and wrists are indeed slender and flawless, like the finest mutton fat jade. Thinking about the face under the mask, as long as it is not too hideous, it can be called a handsome man.
The mysterious man with the mask on his face looks to be at most 20 years old.No one would have imagined that without this person who was born as an orphan and without the slightest background, he could build several silver houses in just a few years with his handicapped body and become one of the richest businessmen in Dongling.
This man named Zhuo Yi is indeed a disabled person.
He is missing a left leg than others.
Zhuo Yi said indifferently: "Why does Mr. Su put Zhuo in his eyes? There are so many people who want to cooperate with Zhuo. Mr. Su hides a lot, which is the most taboo in business. Zhuo is afraid of losing money. Come back."
Su Ji laughed loudly, "I'm afraid Brother Zhuo won't dare to do it after I say it!"
Zhuo Yi's tone remained calm, "Mr. Su might as well talk about it."
Su Ji said, "Brother Zhuo thinks, how much money can you buy the Ling Kingdom? If you own the Ling Kingdom, how much money can you produce?"
Zhuo Yi raised her eyes and met him through the mask.
Su Ji found that the young rich businessman in front of him had a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, like a pot of sweet tea brewed from a good mountain spring, without the slightest impurity, clear and lingering fragrance, not bitter It will be boring.
This pair of eyes seemed familiar, but when you think about it carefully, the narrow and long pupils are different from anyone you've seen before.
Su Ji suppressed the inexplicable sense of familiarity, and waited for Zhuo Yi's answer with great interest.
Zhuo Yi said: "The new king succeeds, money may not be able to buy him."
Su Ji said: "Most of the officials in the DPRK and China can be driven by money."
Zhuo Yi tapped the table with her hand, and repeated what she said just now in a firm tone, "Money can't buy it."
"Brother Yi Zhuo, what can I buy?"
Through the mask, Zhuo Yi's voice was cold and emotionless, and she slowly uttered a word.
"Fate." He said, "Buy with your life, this deal has a three-point chance of success. The risk is too great, Zhuo can't afford it."
Su Ji left in a rage.
Zhuo Yi took off the mask, revealing a face similar to Su Ji's, this is Su Shao's adult appearance.

A big event happened in the palace.
It was only a few months after the late emperor passed away, and the concubines who had princes all went to the fief with the prince, and the rest were sent to the Taimiao to chant scriptures and worship Buddha, but they survived.
Everything was well arranged, but when people were sent to invite the concubines to leave, the always low-key beauty Wang suddenly made a noise, insisting on seeing the empress dowager.

His Majesty sat at the main seat, flanked by the Empress Dowager Zhu and the Empress.His youngest brother sat beside his mother with a dazed expression, and a beautiful concubine knelt below him.
Taking a closer look, Su Yue realized that she looked very familiar.
With just the right amount of bewilderment, he bowed to the big brothers, glanced at the weeping beauty Wang, and asked: "The queen mother and the emperor's brother called me over for such a big battle, what happened? "
"Your Highness..." Wang Meiren called him sadly.
She was wearing a plain dress, which was in line with what she wore during the filial piety period, and perfectly displayed her delicate temperament.The women present all knew what Wang Meiren was up to, so they could only wait for Su Yue to speak with an ugly expression.
"Please respect yourself." Su Yue avoided her movements, "Mom, what's the matter?"
Empress Dowager Zhu was very angry and didn't want to repeat it, she said to His Majesty: "Chen'er, tell me."
His Majesty didn't want to go against his mother's wishes, so he repeated Wang Meiren's words.In order to take care of Thirteenth Brother's ability to understand, he purposely spoke clearly.
Su Shao sat on the side silently, feeling a little uneasy.
Judging by Su Yue's appearance, he will definitely not be responsible for Wang Meiren.He came here because he was involved in Wang Meiren's words, and he planned to use what he saw when he was young to prove their relationship.It would be a good thing if he could take the opportunity to beat Su Yue, so as to save him from having to worry about it later.
After His Majesty finished speaking, he looked at Su Yue and asked blankly, "Fifth Brother, do you have something to say?"
Su Yue sneered, "It's just nonsense! If I really had an affair with the concubine for nine years, how could no one find out? Besides, nine years ago, my younger brother was only 15 years old. Such an outrageous thing?"
Wang Meiren looked at him incredulously, her body crumbling, "His Royal Highness... after you left the palace, the correspondence between you and my concubine is still preserved to this day. The concubine is sincere to your highness, the previous emperor never favored my concubine." , I just ask Your Majesty to give this concubine a chance and let her out of the palace!"
Su Yue kept scolding this woman for being stupid.
How come I didn't realize she was so stupid before?
The emperor was given a cuckold. Not long after the first emperor passed away, it was time for the new emperor to stabilize the hearts of the people.What kind of emperor is reliable?Naturally, he is tolerant and kind, and he is decisive in dealing with things, and the most important point is "filial piety".
If something like this happened during the filial piety period, since I am the younger brother of His Majesty and the son of the Empress Dowager, it is fine to lose my official position and be demoted to a noble. If my reputation is bad, it will be difficult to maintain.And this woman, does she really think she can get something for her?I am afraid that I will be executed directly, so I will go down to accompany the late emperor.
Su Yue was still at a loss, he put on a gentle look, and smiled awkwardly at Wang Meiren, "Why did the concubine say such things? And why did she hold on to me so tightly? I thought I only had a few encounters with the concubine. , I don’t have much contact. The concubine poured dirty water on me like this, my reputation is small, where will the concubine let the emperor’s face go?”
Wang Meiren heard that he was going to deny it to the end, the tears flowed more happily, and there was no longer only sadness in her beautiful eyes, and hatred gradually arose, she kowtowed to the majesty and the queen mother, "If your majesty and empress don't believe it, concubine There are also witnesses and physical evidence!"
There was a hint of mockery in Su Yue's eyes, "The letters you communicate with can be faked... witnesses, could it be some servants in the toffee's palace?"
Wang Meiren said with a sad smile: "Your Highness may have forgotten that eight years ago, His Highness the Thirteenth Prince went to play in His Highness's bedroom and took a nap for a while. At that time, the concubine was behind the screen with His Highness, and did not hide it like His Highness Thirteenth."
Su Chen frowned, and asked Su Shao, "Is there such a thing?"
Su Shao raised his head blankly and frowned.
Su Chen said: "Just tell the truth, you don't need to save face for your Fifth Brother. If he really does something dirty, I will definitely punish him!"
"I..." As soon as Su Shao opened his mouth, everyone's eyes were on him, "But I didn't see the concubine."
Queen Mother Zhu remembered that day, Su Shao specifically mentioned to her that Su Yue's private life was chaotic, and he prostituted himself during the day.She didn't think about it at the time. When it was time for a teenager to grow up, she just sent someone to remind him not to go too far.
But she never thought that the person who messed with Su Yue would be her husband's concubine.
If she had known earlier, she would never have allowed Wang Meiren to live till now!
I wish the Empress Dowager was too regretful, but also a little lucky.Fortunately, Su Shao was naive and ignorant, so he didn't leave a bad impression on him.If the son feels disgusted from now on, he will have to add another one to the hardships he has to worry about.
After Su Shao finished speaking, Su Yue immediately said: "Thirteenth brother really liked to go to the prince's place when he was young. Since Thirteenth brother has never seen the concubine, it is not enough to be a witness." Although his younger brother is stupid, But knowing how to protect his brother, Su Yue couldn't help feeling more confident, and quietly looked at Wang Meiren with more sinister and disgusting eyes.
Only now did Wang Meiren realize how ridiculous the glimmer of hope in her heart was.
Nine years of friendship is not enough for Su Yue to put her in his heart.She didn't see through Su Yue from the beginning to the end, even though His Highness the Fifth Highness was only 15 years old at that time.
Wang Meiren knew that she couldn't survive, and seeing Su Yue's ruthless and complacent eyes, the hatred in her heart became stronger and stronger.She really wanted to drag this noble prince and go to hell with her.
Since we can't live together, let's die together, it's better than staying with a group of perverted women in the temple and dying.
Wang Meiren raised her head, she became a little more determined, "Your Majesty and Empress, no matter what, you won't believe my concubine's words, will you? Concubine can submit a letter. Please send someone to search the concubine's bedroom."
His Majesty also sighed, if possible, who would want to ruin the reputation of his father and brother?He was not destined to do justice to the matter.He waved his hand and said to the eunuch who was following him, "Send someone to search."
Wang Meiren was overjoyed and kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
She seemed to have hope again, no longer as eager as before.She Yingying said, "Empress Dowager, this concubine is sorry for the late emperor. No matter how the matter is settled, concubine's deeds are not worthy of forgiveness. It's just that concubine really wants a word from His Highness Yi Wang. Concubine knows that she is greedy, It's just a matter of feelings, it's really out of control. Two trade-offs, His Royal Highness Yi's promise to the concubine is more important than the humble life of the concubine."
Queen Mother Zhu did not answer.
Wang Meiren smiled to herself, "My concubine is a little thirsty, can I give my concubine a cup of tea?"
Empress Zhu waved her hand and asked Yingshui to pour a cup of tea for her, "Stop kneeling, stand up and talk."
"Thank you, Aunt Yingshui." Wang Meiren stood up slowly, looked at Yingshui with gentle and envious eyes, and after the tea in her hand, she lifted the lid of the cup and took a sip, "The tea smells so good. "
Su Shao felt that something was wrong with her, so he quietly stretched his hand behind and tugged on Queen Mother Zhu's clothes.Empress Dowager Zhu turned her face to look at him, and said with a sigh: "Who is right and who is wrong, how can we tell clearly?"
"Mother……"
With a "snap", the teacup fell to the ground.Wang Meiren's movements were many times faster than before, and she immediately picked up a piece of debris. Just when everyone thought she was going to kill herself, she rushed to Su Yue's side, with a ferocious expression on her face.
Su Yue couldn't react in time and was caught by her.Wang Meiren took the porcelain piece and pestered Su Yue's neck, and blood rushed out, soaking Su Yue's chest pad.
The female family members screamed, and Su Chen was the first to react, "Come here! Take down Wang Taifei, and call the imperial doctor!"
Su Yue clutched his neck, his face was pale, and he seemed to be unable to stand still.
Su Shao hurried to him and helped him hold down the blood vessel to prevent the blood from flowing too fast.Wang Meiren's movements were unskilled, and the wound cut by the porcelain plate was deep, but the artery was not injured.I just don't know if such an injury can be cured with the ancient medical level.
"Fifth brother... Fifth brother, don't sleep." Su Shao shouted to Su Yue, "The bet we made has not yet been completed. The prince brother ascended the throne, I won, you have to give me the bet. You didn't say you would What's the bet, let me mention it myself? I don't want you to sleep!"
"Ahem..." Su Yue rested his pillow on Su Shao's arm, quite amused: "Why are you... so noisy..."
As soon as he spoke, blood flowed from his mouth immediately.It looked scary.
"Stop talking!" Su Chen and Empress Dowager Zhu also came to Su Yue's side, they didn't dare to move his body, they could only anxiously wait for the imperial doctor to come over.
Su Yue saw the concern in Su Chen's eyes. At this time, he still maintained his rationality and was still calculating in his heart whether Su Chen was just pretending or really cared about him.
In the end he had to admit that the eldest brother was indeed more affectionate than the second brother.
Su Yue sighed and slowly closed his eyes.
After the imperial physician arrived, he bandaged the wound with ointment and bandages, and prescribed medicine to invigorate Qi and blood.Suyue's situation is too critical, such a large wound can easily be infected.There is no tetanus shot in this era, and once you have a fever, you can only survive on your own.
The Empress Dowager Zhu was used to the battles in the harem, and when it was her son's turn, she still felt chills in her heart.
After treating Su Yue, she ordered to go down and thoroughly investigate who Wang Meiren had contacted before.
She didn't believe that most people would do such a big thing after careful consideration.But even Su Yue didn't know, and Wang Meiren didn't have a perfect plan, presumably it was a sudden decision.Someone must have abetted her!
As long as the investigation is in the right direction, nothing will be found.
Queen Mother Zhu really found out the people who had close contact with Wang Meiren.
Unexpectedly, that person was none other than her own son, Su Yue's younger brother, Ninth Prince Su Qing.
Before the eldest son took over the power, she had to go through all kinds of twists and turns, but now everything is peaceful, but the few children still haven't stopped fighting.
The queen mother has four children in total. After knowing that Su Qing did it, she suddenly aged a lot.
It seems that something has been done wrong to make the children what they are now.
Su Yue failed to survive the high fever and died the next night.
Queen Mother Zhu didn't let Su Shao go back, but took him by her side.She called Su Qing in, and she was not afraid of being known by Su Shao. In front of her youngest son, she asked Xiao Jiu wearily: "Why? Why did you do this?"
Su Qing is completely different from before.He is slender and thin, and his face is pale and bloodless, as if he will lose his vitality in the next second, completely different from the tiger-headed and tiger-headed appearance when he was a child.
After hearing Queen Mother Zhu's words, Su Qing twitched the corners of his mouth and said with a stiff smile: "I never thought that Mrs. Wang would be so cruel and kill Fifth Brother in front of so many people. It's a pity..."
Empress Dowager Zhu was overwhelmed by his tone, slapped the table angrily, and asked loudly: "Su Qing! Do you have any heart! That's your own brother!"
Su Shao appeased Queen Mother Zhu at a loss, and was also curious about why Su Qing would do this.
Su Qing looked at Empress Dowager Zhu coldly. From the very beginning, he didn't pay attention to Su Shao, as if he couldn't see him.
"Su Chen is your son, Su Yue is your son, and Su Shao is also your son. The others are all ants at the mercy of others!" His eyes suddenly turned red, and he frowned and pointed at Su Shao: "So Su Lin deserves to be killed by him! I deserve to be alone too! You only care about your 'good and sensible' son, why have you ever cared about me!"
He turned his head to look at Su Shao angrily, "I really hate you, why do you get everything without doing anything? Su Lin, he has nothing, he humbled and begged, but ended up like that in the end! Without you , I will be my mother's most beloved son, and Su Lin doesn't have to act like a slave, begging to see her father!"
Many princes know about Su Yue and Wang Meiren.Third Highness Su Chi once reminded Su Shao to stay away from Su Yue.Su Yue is not as romantic as the surface, his mind is deeper than anyone else.It's just that he is too shrewd, instead he has no interest in competing with others, and he has enough power to protect himself, so he can live until now.
Su Qing asked Meiren Wang to "surrender herself" because she wanted Su Shao to testify against her, so that Su Yue would hold her grudges.He knew that it would not be difficult to kill Su Shao with Su Yue's methods.
Who would have thought that such a person would die on a porcelain tablet in the hands of a weak woman?
"Bastard!" The Empress Dowager Zhu was shaking with anger, "The person who killed Su Lin was not sent by Shao'er. If you are unwilling, just tell it directly. Why bother your brother!"
"I can't let it go." Su Qing said, "Su Lin has protected me for so many years. He helped me understand the words and tricks in the palace and taught me how to survive in the palace. How much I want to take him to join the military camp when I grow up. He wanted to join the army, and I fought in front. But he died just like that! You let me down! You and the emperor refused to thoroughly investigate the real culprit, besides Su Shao and myself, who else can I hate!"
"Ninth brother... I'm sorry." Apart from apologizing, Su Shao didn't know what to say.
Queen Mother Zhu sneered, "The real culprit? Hmph. Who do you think Su Lin is? How sincere is he in everything he has done to you? You are the fool who has been fooled by him all the time."
"He's my younger brother." Su Qing was very repulsed by Queen Mother Zhu's attitude of not treating the children of other concubines as children.
"He's not." The Empress Dowager Zhu said coldly.
