I'm not really the protagonist? [Transmigration Book]

General Guanxi knelt on the Golden Luan Hall and begged the emperor to withdraw the imperial decree of marriage, which aroused the emperor's fury.

Because the queen helped to say a few words before, this time Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty did not turn away Xiahou Lingyuan who was asking to see him. After Chang An led the people in, he withdrew from the hall and guarded, and no one was allowed to disturb him.

After a while, there was the sound of a teacup being broken in the hall, and Chang An remained calm and slightly moved away from the hall door. After about half an hour, the hall door finally opened from the inside, and the Seventh Prince came out with an indifferent expression. , After taking it to the palace door, he walked up to Chang An and said a few words: "Take care of the spot carefully, Father is a little unwell, depending on the timing, Doctor Xuan come over and have a look."

"Yes, the servant knows." Chang An leaned over and said.

Emperor Ming Xuan stayed in the hall for a long time, Chang An tentatively stepped forward and asked if there was no sound coming from Chuanshan. Jintou said: "Your Majesty? Before leaving, the lord ordered the servants to take care of you carefully. Are you... is there anything wrong?"

Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty finally said: "It's all right, there is no need to pass on the food or the imperial doctor, just step down."

"This... yes." Chang An backed away after listening to the voice as if there was nothing serious about it.

Two days later, an imperial decree entered the palace of General Guanxi and Prince Xianshuo. The general meaning of the imperial decree was that, as measured by the eminent monks of Hanshui Temple, the characters of the seven princes Xiahou Lingyuan and the palace of General Kanxi were slightly different. Not a good person, so the marriage is cancelled.

This purpose is to perfunctory the people of the capital, and none of the officials believed what they said. Everyone knew that the emperor was trying to build momentum for the Seventh Prince. It was heard that the Seventh Prince was rejected twice when he asked to see the Emperor. General Kansai bluntly hoped that the emperor would withdraw the imperial decree of referring to the marriage. Although the emperor left in a rage, he agreed to the Seventh Prince's request to see him again.

Now who can know the meaning of the Seventh Prince, he has no idea about the throne, even if the emperor loves him very much, and has the faint intention of handing over the throne to him, the Seventh Prince has also expressed his rejection with actions.

Now the court began to be chaotic again, and those old officials also wanted to understand this level, closed the door again, and buried themselves in the upper study room to prepare the memorial for the next early court in the hope that the emperor will establish a crown prince.

In Zhenyuan Hou's Mansion.

Hou Zhenyuan, who is over sixty years old, has white beard and hair, and several deep wrinkles evenly stretched out from the corners of his eyes and on both sides of his mouth, but his eyes are full. He sat there and gently twirled his beard, and said lightly: "It seems that the emperor intends to The eleventh prince is appointed as the crown prince."

Liu Chengye, the eldest son of Marquis Zhenyuan, stood aside respectfully, and frowned upon hearing this: "Maybe this is Xiahou Lingyuan acting?"

Marquis Zhenyuan shook his head: "If it's really a show, then the price is too high." Even if he rejected the girl from General Guanxi's mansion, even if he didn't offend General Guanxi, the relationship between the two would not be so good. After all, General Kansai's love for his sister has long been heard in Beijing.

"Then...will our plans change?"

"No need," Zhenyuanhou said: "The situation has developed to such a point that no one expected that there will inevitably be some changes in the factions of the court officials." If everything has to change, then the Marquis must change first and control the situation." He snorted coldly, and Liu Chengye, who was beside him, also had a sneer in his eyes, and his appearance became a little ferocious.

Sure enough, after those old ministers continued to submit their sons for several days, the emperor announced that the eleventh prince Xia Houlan, who was only six years old, was the crown prince. Today's third concubine.She has the same status as the concubine Xian of Lenggong and the mother concubine of the ten princes, but because Xia Houlan is the prince, she can be said to be the second person in power in the harem.

Xia Houlan's seventh birthday is just around the corner. Si Tianjian calculated the date of Li Chu's banquet and found that it happened to be the same day as his birthday. The emperor was very happy, and with a wave of his hand, many rewards were brought into the Chunyang Palace , and asked the Ministry of Rituals to prepare, the banquet of Li Chu will be held together with the birthday, it must be held in a luxurious atmosphere, and even the north gate of the palace will have a two-day flowing banquet.

At the same time, there was chaos in the prince's mansion in the past. The reason was that the princess had already vented more air and breathed less since she fell into the water when she was brought up by someone. Even if the adults are like this, the child in her belly is even more immature now.

When the news reached Zhenyuan Hou's mansion and Concubine Xian's harem, Concubine Xian was frightened on the spot and knelt down on the ground with limp legs, and her stomach, which was about to give birth, also started to hurt. After Wen Po went in, she looked at the situation and said that she was about to give birth prematurely. When she came over for a while, the queen also rushed over and waited outside the hall together.

After Zhenyuan Hou heard about Su Lingyan's accident, he was furious. After beheading several people who were sent to guard Su Lingyan, he ordered someone to call the most famous midwife in the capital to the eldest prince's mansion. His target There is only one, and that is to use all means to keep the child in Su Lingyan's stomach.

Now that Xiahou Xiuyan is locked up in the cold palace, the emperor doesn't care about him, obviously he has no affection for him, the new crown prince has been established, and because of the relationship with the Zhenyuanhoufu, Xiahou Xiuyan now only has two paths, one One is that the emperor secretly executed him, and the other is that he was demoted to another place, never to enter Beijing.

The two have little influence on them, because even if Xiahou Xiuyan dies or is demoted abroad, his child is still the grandson of the emperor, still retains the orthodox blood, and has the qualifications to inherit the throne. If the child in Su Lingyan's belly is taken care of, if something great happens in the future, in order to block the mouth of the world, the child will become the emperor, and the country is still in the hands of the Xiahou family, and their Zhenyuanhou's mansion will assist the little emperor well .

"It's an assistant, but it's obviously a puppet." Yan Zheng sneered.After laughing, he asked again: "What if the pressure is too tight and they jump over the wall in a hurry?"

Xiahou Lingyuan turned his head to look at him, and said meaningfully: "What I want is for them to jump over the wall in a hurry." After speaking, he looked at Xia Houlan who was silent at the side, "You already know the plan, can you believe me?"

Now the three of them are in a teahouse not far from the palace. Xia Houlan was brought out of the palace with a hidden sword. Because he can't be out for too long, the three of them chose the address not far from the palace gate. In this newly opened teahouse, the purpose of bringing him out this time is to let him and Yan Zheng meet, after all, the rest will be based on the two of them.

Xia Houlan nodded: "I believe." As long as it is beneficial to the baby, he is willing to do it.

"During the period until the banquet day, if you notice anything unusual in the palace, send someone to send a message here." Xiahou Lingyuan said, and saw Yan looking at him: "Is this place safe?"

"Safe." Xiahou Lingyuan smiled, with a trace of tenderness in his eyes, "The owner of this corner teahouse is my friend."

When Xiahou Lingyuan left the teahouse, it was already very late. He originally planned to return home directly, but changed his mind at the fork in the road, turned into Changfeng Lane in Nancheng, and then sneaked into Sujiabao's house like a thief. Room.

Since the last time he quietly came, although the purpose of referring to the marriage was resolved, he has never been free, so he didn't meet again. He stood by the bed, looked at the person who was sleeping soundly, and couldn't help squatting down. , stretched out his fingers to touch the slender and slender eyebrows, greedily, his fingers moved from the eyebrows to the tip of the nose, and tapped lightly, seeing the person move, he murmured softly, saying What he didn't hear clearly, he moved half a step, lowered his head and approached Su Jiabao's face.

Su Jiabao slept on his side, maybe because it was colder in the room, he rolled himself into a ball, and his shoulders were no longer shrunk, making him look extraordinarily small and fragile.

Still dissatisfied with his fingers, he moved from the tip of his nose to the small earlobe, and touched it lightly. His hand was cold and cold. He stretched out his whole hand to take a breath of hot air around his mouth, and quickly and lightly covered it with Su's mouth. On Jiabao's ears, the other hand helped to pull up the quilt, and the corners of the quilt were well tucked, and he withdrew his hand only after feeling that the ears were no longer cold.

He squatted down and looked at people for a while, the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously, there was a gentleness between his eyebrows and eyes that he didn't know, he didn't want to disturb people's sleep, but he didn't want to go, eyes, nose, ears, the last place he didn't know bump.

Seeing Su Jiabao's slightly open pink mouth, Xiahou Lingyuan stretched out a finger and tapped his lips, then lightened his movements, and traced the shape of his lips back and forth. The hot air from his mouth swept over his hands, The hot air penetrated into his fingers as if consciously, and then traveled along the blood to his heart.

Heart warm, itchy, a little restless.

He propped his arms on the side of the bed, leaned closer again, lowered his head and put the tip of the nose to the tip of the nose, lightly pecked on that lip, and stayed there for a while before moving away.

A certain room in the west courtyard of the Su residence was extremely warm, while in the First Prince's mansion, it was as if the winter had passed ahead of schedule. Everyone knelt on the ground and shivered.

In the end, Su Lingyan's child was still not kept and was lost, while the adults came back after going through the ghost gate. After Liu Chengye executed several servants who were close to him in public, everyone was strictly ordered not to say a word to the outside world. .

The doctor and the two midwives nodded repeatedly, their bodies shaking like they were sifting chaff, and when they heard that they could leave, they didn't care about anything, and rushed out of the mansion door scrambling and crawling.

On the second day, Jingzhao Mansion received a report from someone that three people froze to death in the moat, namely two well-known midwives and an old doctor in the city.

Although Zhenyuanhou smashed two cups angrily, he still hasn't lost his mind.

"Place two more people around Meng'er. Su Lingyan's child is gone, and the child in Meng'er's stomach is the last hope of my Liu family." Zhenyuan Hou snorted coldly. There is also a right of inheritance.

Liu Chengye nodded. He had to handle this matter himself. As soon as he opened the door of the study, he saw the butler rushing over.

"Master, master is not well."

Liu Cheng also saw the panic of Uncle Sang, who had followed his father for more than ten years and had always been steady, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart.

He stood still, the housekeeper even forgot to salute when he entered the door, and said directly: "Concubine Xian had a miscarriage last night."

"What?" Liu Chengye was shocked, "What the hell is going on?" He asked through gritted teeth, Meng'er let a lot of people go there, how could there be a miscarriage for no reason?

Marquis Zhenyuan was only stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, his face was filled with murderous intent, and he said slowly, "Who caused it?"

Su Lingyan stumbled and fell into the water, and he had already blocked the news about the child's death. Meng'er was far away in the deep palace and could not know about it.

"Changan, the chief eunuch next to the emperor."
