Charm King Poison Queen - Chapter 1309

  Chapter 1309【V173】Fate of father and son

   This time, Geng Qingyun couldn’t stop it even if he wanted to.

  Huangfu Che met Geng Qiaoshan and his daughter.

  The situation of the two of them was very pessimistic. Geng Qiaoshan was beaten beyond recognition, and his breath was dissipated. Geng Xiaoxi didn’t suffer much pain, but after being locked up for several days, his spirit was extremely panicked, and his whole body fell into a state of hysteria.

  This scene is by no means what Geng Qingyun said, the two were infected with a cold or a seasonal epidemic.

Huangfu Che squinted his eyes like a little adult, and an invisible coercion spread in the air. Everyone couldn’t help lowering their bodies, and they all heard him say: “Mr. Ding, this is what you said will be contagious to Gu. Epidemic? Are you implying that you want Gu to become like this?”

   “I don’t dare!” Geng Qingyun clasped his fists with both hands, deeply blessed, thinking to himself when he said he would beat the prince, the prince’s ability to create something out of nothing is too strong.

  Huangfuche said to Xuanjiang: “You guys go out and guard the gate. You have something to ask Teacher Geng.”

“yes!”

   Xuanjiang should go down and drag Geng Qingyun.

  Geng Qingyun felt angry for a while, but he didn’t dare to openly disobey the prince’s order, so Geng Qingyun dragged him out.

  After the door was closed, Geng Xiaoxi couldn’t bear it any longer, and threw herself into Huangfu Che’s arms. He was obviously two years older than Huangfu Che, but at this moment, he couldn’t help pinning all his hopes on Huangfu Che.

   “Your Highness…” she sobbed sadly.

   “Gu is here.” Huangfu Che patted her shoulder lightly, “Sister Xiaoxi, tell Gu, what happened?”

   “Woooo…” Geng Xiaoxi kept crying, but dared not tell what he had experienced.

  Huangfu Che said earnestly: “Sister Xiao Xi, if you don’t tell Gu, it will be very difficult for Gu to make decisions for you. Do you want to be trapped in this yard for the rest of your life? Do you think Uncle Geng will never wake up?”

  Geng Xiaoxi desperately shook her head.

Huangfuche said: “That’s right, Gu wants to help you, but sister Xiaoxi, solving a problem is like seeing a doctor. You must first understand what disease you have before you can prescribe the right medicine. Even if Gu is going to ask Father for mercy, let him help you two.” To be relieved, I have to give my father a reasonable reason.”

  Geng Xiaoxi is already so old, these words can still be understood, sobbed twice, and finally mustered up the courage to tell the ins and outs of the matter.

It turned out that in the pasture that day, after Geng Qiaoshan asked Ming Xuanyin from Huangfu Che why he made a face to their father and daughter, he went home and had a fight with Geng Qingyun. Geng Xiaoxi didn’t understand what was going on. All the elders in the clan were alarmed. The elders closed the door to persuade them for a long time, but they didn’t know what was going on and who they were persuading. Anyway, after the elders left, Geng Qingyun was furious, beat Geng Qiaoshan severely, and said no. A useless son like Geng Qiaoshan wants to drive Geng Qiaoshan out of the Geng family.

   “…It’s so scary… Woohoo…It’s all blood…I dare not rush out…I’m afraid grandpa will beat me too…” Geng Xiaoxi broke down in tears.

  Huangfuche stared thoughtfully: “So that’s why Uncle Geng excused his illness and refused to teach Gu. What about you, sister Xiaoxi? Why don’t you come to the inner school to teach because you weren’t injured?”

   “I… I said I wanted to sue you… Grandpa locked me up…” Geng Xiaoxi said with fear.

Huangfu Che’s expression became very ugly: “Duke Ding is too bold! He even dared to beat my teacher! Did he really think Uncle Geng was just his son? Uncle Geng was ordered by the emperor, so he is a member of the royal family. Beating Uncle Geng is punishable by punishment! And you, you are Gu’s best friend, and if he beats you, he is hitting Gu in the face! Gu can’t swallow this breath!”

  Actually, Geng Qiaoshan on the bed had woken up a long time ago. He felt ashamed to see the prince, so he kept pretending to be unconscious. At this time, after hearing what he said to defend himself, he couldn’t help it anymore, grabbed the quilt, and began to cry tremblingly.

  …

In the courtyard, Geng Qingyun looked at the closed door with a livid face. Geng Xiaoxi could faintly cry a few times, but the voices of the three of them were very low, and he couldn’t hear the specific content clearly. He moved and walked in. .

   Xuanjiang stopped him: “Where else do you want to go?”

   “It’s my son over there. My son is awake. I’ll go and see if it’s okay, Mr. Xuan?” Geng Qingyun said angrily.

   Xuanyin snorted coldly: “Do you still know that is your son? Look at your ruthless hand, I don’t know if you thought your wife gave you a cuckold.”

“You…” Geng Qingyun was choked half to death. He only knew that there was a guard around Xuanyin who had played with him since he was a child. He heard that he was only a servant in the past. It was just a word of grace from the emperor, he didn’t take the other party seriously, but after dealing with him today, he knew that the other party was not a cheap lamp.

“Don’t be complacent. Being with you is like being with a tiger. The holy will is unpredictable. The old man advises you to find a few retreats for yourself when you are proud of life, so that if you lose power one day, there is someone who can protect you. If you wait until you lose power If you go to ask someone again, I’m afraid no one will give you help!” He said otherwise.

Xuanjiang smiled: “What Ding Guogong said is very reasonable. I really should plan a way out for myself. After all, when the water is clear, there will be no fish. The muddy water in the big pond of the imperial court can’t do without dripping. When you get into the water, it depends on who pulls you down.”

  Geng Qingyun showed a hint of a smile, and just about to speak, he heard Xuanjiang say: “But Duke Ding, you will no longer be in this pool soon, so it is meaningless for me to look for you.”

  Geng Qingyun’s smile froze on his face.

  …

  In the room, the discussion continued.

  Huangfuche finally figured out the cause and effect of Geng Qiaoshan’s beating. It wasn’t just that Geng Qiaoshan was angry at the other party for making trouble, but the conflict had escalated to an irreconcilable level. Geng Qiaoshan is the most impulsive and irritable character. After persuading his father to no avail, he resolutely gave his father an ultimatum. Either, give up the idea of ​​accepting Xuanyin as a concubine, and wholeheartedly assist Geng Xiaoxi; inherit.

  What Geng Qiaoshan thought was that his father wanted to get some concubines and princes for Xuan Yin, so it’s ok, let the power of the Geng family be in his hands, and if he goes to support the prince, the emperor and prince will also be able to see the sincerity of the Geng family.

  But Geng Qingyun is not a fool, would he hand over the family business he worked so hard to build into the hands of a useless son? If it is not useful, it is fine, and the key becomes very disobedient and difficult to control.

  One day this stupid son will be sold without knowing it. The Geng family must never be destroyed by such a person.

  Geng Qiaoshan became even more angry, and asked Geng Qingyun, what is a useless son? The entire Geng family, the big house has been destroyed, if the property is not handed over to him, is it going to be handed over to Geng Er and Geng San who were reviled by the previous emperor as common people all their lives? Afterwards, Geng Qiaoshan wittily noticed that the problem was wrong, and went to his father’s yard to check, only to find out that a young aunt was pregnant.

He deeply felt the bleakness of his future. The reason why he was able to get to the present and to be appreciated by his father was because he was the only son in the family. In fact, he also knew that he was not smart enough or tactful enough—if his father gave birth to a smart son, can he still keep his position as Patriarch?

Anyway, his father had given up on him, so he didn’t need to be merciful to his father anymore. He immediately called the elders of the clan and wanted to “confess” some of his father’s “things” to them. His father had a bad feeling, and before he could speak, He beat him hard.

“Ribs… My ribs were all broken… The elders all advised him, this is the only son, don’t let him be beaten… He said he would rather die alone than an unfilial son like me…I know… He has I just want to get rid of my burden…” Geng Qiaoshan snotted and burst into tears.

   In a sense, Geng Qiaoshan felt that he and the prince were really in the same boat. They were both **** sons and only sons. Their parents had no choice but to treat them well, but they were always facing the risk of being replaced and threatened. Or maybe it was a similar experience that made Geng Qiaoshan subconsciously get close to and trust the prince, and of course, use the prince unequivocally. He thinks that he can judge the prince’s thoughts by himself, and he also believes that the prince is a very easy-to-control son-in-law. As long as he holds the prince firmly in his hand, he can be a master without any worries from now on.

   “Your Highness…you have to make the decision for me…” He cried out of shape.

  Huangfuche’s eyes flickered with just the right amount of distress and worry: “Teacher, I feel alone in your pain.”

   This sentence is really distracting.

  Geng Qiaoshan burst into tears.

  Huangfu Che showed a bit of embarrassment again and said: “But Gu thought about it just now, and felt that Gu might not be able to intervene in this matter.”

   “What?” Geng Qiaoshan was stunned.

Huangfu Che sighed and said: “Nanjiang governs the country with filial piety, it was the teacher who forced Duke Ding to beat you up in the name of teaching his son a lesson, even if you make trouble in the court, it is still your disobedience The biological father was rebellious and disregarded ethics, but Ding Guogong was a strict father and taught his son with good intentions, which is praiseworthy.”

   “This…” Geng Qiaoshan seemed to have swallowed a sponge, and even his voice was choked.

“Unless.” Huangfu Che paused, “Duke Ding did something against national etiquette, and the teacher, as the prince’s junior teacher, has a duty, so he had no choice but to remind him. Severe beating… So, Gu Fang has some ideas.”

  Geng Qiaoshan hesitated.

Huangfu Che didn’t force him until he clicked, got up and said: “This is Dingguo’s mansion after all, it’s a big mistake to break in alone, I’m afraid it will be difficult to come in to visit in the future, please take care of teacher and sister Xiaoxi. “

   “Your Highness! Your Highness! Your Highness…”

  No matter how the father and daughter called, Huangfu Che resolutely left Dingguo Mansion.

   On the first day after that, Geng Qiaoshan held back.

   On the second day, Geng Qiaoshan still held back.

  Third day, fourth day…

  Chen Jiao began to frequent the East Palace, and Huangfu Che was frequently invited into Chen Taifu’s house.

  On the seventh day, Geng Qiaoshan finally couldn’t bear it any longer, fearing that everything he had worked so hard to achieve would be in vain, so unwilling to do so, he secretly bribed his servants to deliver a secret letter to Huangfuche.

  The day before New Year’s Eve, Dali Siqing personally came to the door and arrested Geng Qingyun and put him in prison.

   “Why do you arrest me? What are you going to do?” Geng Qingyun was furious.

  The minister of Dali Temple said coldly: “Someone accuses you of accepting bribes, forming a party for private gain, crossing the border to create business, and privately minting money and silver. The evidence is convincing. You can wait to eat in prison!”

   “Damn Geng Qiaoshan, is it you? Is it you little bastard? Geng Qiaoshan, come out for me—come out for me, do you hear me? You dare to betray your own father! You will die——”

  Geng Qingyun’s furious roar was like thunder, and it exploded back and forth over Dingguo’s mansion, shaking everyone violently.

  Geng Qiaoshan hid in the house, holding the remaining half of the ledger, trembling all over.

  …

Geng Qingyun was brought to Dali Temple. The moment the prison van was opened, the guards pulled him out with ruthless hands and kicked him on the ground. He rolled and stopped right next to a pair of black soft leather boots embroidered with golden dragons. The quality of the boots is excellent, and you can tell it is the best lambskin at a glance. His eyes moved up along the little leather boots. He was dressed in a crown and black clothes. Who is he if he is not the crown prince?

  He stared in humiliation, and wanted to get up, but a big foot stepped on his chest.

   “In front of His Royal Highness, you’d better behave yourself.” Bigfoot’s owner, Xuan Jiang said unceremoniously.

  Geng Qingyun was trampled until he spat out a mouthful of blood, glared at the prince viciously, and said, “What exactly do you want?”

Huangfu Che looked at him condescendingly, his small body exuded a calm aura that was incompatible with his age, and there was a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes: “What about lonely thoughts, don’t Duke Ding know? How did Duke Ding provoke Gu As for the relationship with the queen, Gu is just repaying her in the same way as her own. How is it? Does it feel good to be betrayed by your son?”

   “You…you are not human…you are a monster! You are a monster!” How can people have such terrible thoughts? Just because he provoked them a few words, he was going to ruin him! He thought that the prince was avenging the assassination by the river, but it turned out that the prince didn’t take that assassination seriously at all. What the prince cared about was the relationship with the queen from the beginning to the end.

“Hehe…hehehe…” Geng Qingyun laughed miserably, “I have lived in vain for most of my life, I have avoided so many open and hidden arrows, I have experienced so many life and death, and I have lived so hard that I have survived so much. It fell down, and Geng Yan was overwhelmed, but in the end, he fell into the hands of a brat…It’s so ironic…”

   “Don’t bully young people who are poor, and don’t bully young people who are lonely.” Huangfu Che glanced at him coldly, then flung his sleeves and left the spot.

  Geng Qingyun spent the coldest year in his life in prison. On New Year’s Eve, a bowl of sour rice and a jug of water and wine.

After the 15th day of the first lunar month, Geng Qingyun’s case was officially put on the agenda. During the trial, searching for clues and collecting evidence is often the most labor-intensive link. It can take months or even years. It dragged on for half a year, but this time, thanks to Geng Qiaoshan’s full cooperation, all of Geng Qingyun’s illegal accounts were handed over to Dali Temple. The account records in detail the evidence of Geng Qingyun forming a party for private interests, privately minting money and silver, and even cross-border operations.

  In the early years, the Geng family’s second wife also had a private army that was no less than that of the vassal king. After Xuanyin ascended the throne, he took the initiative to hand over the military power to the imperial court. Although it was not as large as the Qilin army, it should not be underestimated. Therefore, when Xuanyin promoted the system of reducing vassals across the country, he was not affected in any way, but who would have expected that he had secretly trained 50,000 soldiers in a canyon outside the country.

  It is an unforgivable crime to raise a private army, let alone raise it abroad.

This is already a capital crime of ransacking the family and exterminating the family. In addition, he found a little daughter who was only a few months younger than the crown prince and princess in the private army camp. Calculated according to the month, the little girl was conceived during the funeral of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom. This is a blatant disrespect to the royal family. Those officials who wanted to plead for Geng Qingyun really couldn’t find a breakthrough.

  Personal evidence and material evidence are all there, and Geng Qingyun can’t deny it even if he dies.

In mid-February, the three divisions reached a consensus that Geng Qingyun did not pay attention to national etiquette, despised the king’s law, formed a party for private gain, crossed the border to create camps, privately minted currency, deceived the sky, and fooled the people. , specially stripped of his official position, deprived of his title, and given the punishment of beheading.

Gu Nian Geng Qiaoshan’s meritorious service in reporting and avoiding the bad luck of being imprisoned, Geng Qiaoshan actually did not expect the matter to develop so seriously. He reported his father at the beginning, but he did not want to be beaten to death by his father; secondly, he wanted to get his father off the horse He held the power in his hands, but he swore that he never thought of killing his father.

When the matter developed halfway, it was like a wild horse running wild, completely out of his control. He tried to find his father’s former friends and asked them to come forward to help his father figure out a solution, but the list of party formation and selfishness was still in the hands of the emperor. Hold on, it’s impossible to get rid of the relationship with Geng Qingyun, whoever rushes to make a fuss.

  The officials who should be executed will naturally be dealt with. Knowing that it was Geng Qiaoshan who reported the secret, the family members of those officials scolded Geng Qiaoshan bloody.

  Not only that, the elders of the clan also found Geng Qiaoshan and threatened to drive him out of the clan.

  Geng Qiaoshan was puzzled: “Did you make a mistake? I saved you! If it weren’t for my selflessness, do you think you are still alive?”

   “You didn’t report your father, what could happen to him? Could something happen to us? We are all doing well!” As the elder of the family, how could he not know a little about Geng Qingyun’s tricks? But how does the state do their shit? What they want is a shrewd and capable patriarch, an heir who can lead the Geng family to glory, not this unfilial son who sent his biological father to the guillotine for his own selfish desires!

  Geng Qiaoshan’s taking over of the family affairs was delayed because of this.

“Why are things different from what I thought? Everything is different! My father is gone, and I am the sole heir of the family. What are these stubborn old people waiting for? Could it be that a son crawled out of that aunt’s belly? Humph! What can climb out?!”

  That night, Geng Qiaoshan fed a bowl of abortion pills to his aunt and drank it…

  I thought it was to cut off the last trace of hesitation and thoughts of the old stubborn members of the clan, but it never did, and instead planned the conflict to a new height.

  When the Geng family was in chaos and there was no leader, the King of Leakage came back.

  …

  Ning Yue was collecting fresh roses in Jiaofang Hall, and Dongmei walked over with a smile on her face: “Your Majesty! Your Majesty! This servant made her own claim. If you forgive this servant, I will tell you.”

   “You girl, you’re becoming more and more naughty, aren’t you?” Ning Yue smiled, “Okay, okay, sorry for your innocence, tell me, what’s the big deal?”

  Dongmei stepped aside: “Look, ma’am, who’s here?”

  A handsome man with a burly figure and resolute features slowly walked up to Ning Yue. Due to the long-term weather, his skin was tanned, but his deep-set eyes became calmer and brighter.

  He opened the corners of his lips that were cracked by the wind, lost his voice with excitement, his eyes gradually glowed, and after a long while, he knelt down and said, “Miss!”

  Ning Yue put the scissors back into the basket, supported his arms, and said with red eyes, “You still know how to come back! Where have you been all these years? You didn’t even give me a single letter!”

  Tears fell silently from the corners of his eyes, he held back, his shoulders trembling: “I’m back, Miss, Geng Zhongzhi is back.”

  …

  The return of Geng Zhongzhi brought things back to a dramatic turn.

In the early years, the big house hired Ma Jinyan to act as Geng Ye. Some senior elders knew about it. After all, the court only dared to recognize Geng Ye’s identity after the clan’s birth certificate was required. Find a crack in the ground and drill in.

“What should I do? The crime of deceiving the emperor requires decapitation. The elders found someone at random and said it was me, and committed such a treasonous thing in Xiliang in my name. No matter how I think about it, I can’t swallow this breath.” ?” Geng Zhongzhi looked at a room full of elders with different expressions, and said with a long sigh.

The elder with the longest seniority said: “You can’t blame us for this matter, it was your father who did it! At that time, the head of the house was not your second uncle, but your father! You should understand that we are the elders, but in front of the head of the house , we are still very insignificant.”

   “Yes, yes.” Several other elders echoed with a smile.

“We all advised your father at that time, don’t Li Daitao be stiff, your father didn’t listen, saying that marrying Xiliang princess can promote the development of the Geng family, we are fooled and believe it.” The elder blamed himself Said: “It’s also my fault. After all these years, Bai didn’t expect that you were still alive. He thought that, as your father said, you were dead and would not come out again. If I had known that such a day would come, I would have Whatever you say, stop your father!”

   Geng Zhong said with a smile on his face: “So what if I understand these things? So what if I understand you? My opinion is not insignificant? You are deceiving His Majesty, the Emperor!”

  Everyone trembled in fright.

  The Great Elder cleared his throat, and tentatively asked: “I heard that when you were living among the people, you worked as a guard for the empress for a few days?”

“Ah, it’s true, but I didn’t tell her my real identity. Now that I know, she is the Queen of Southern Xinjiang, so I don’t need to hide myself.” After Geng Zhongzhi finished speaking, everyone did not doubt him. He glanced at everyone and said, “She is very angry.”

  The eyes of the great elder rolled around: “Then she…didn’t kill you? You, you, you are also the crime of deceiving the king…”

Geng Zhongzhi slammed his hands on the table: “Is it the same for me to bully you? Is my relationship with the empress the same as your relationship with the empress? At any rate, I have been born and died with the empress! I Back then, I lived in Xiliang because I couldn’t stay in southern Xinjiang! If the two countries were at war, if I told my identity, I was afraid that I would bring unnecessary disasters to the lady, so I hid it from her. But I’m not like you, I use this Waiting for the identity to commit crimes and do evil, and run around like dogs!”

  The elders were scolded to the point of embarrassment.

“Forget it, when I came back, I wanted to put my biological mother’s tablet into the ancestral hall. As for what will happen to you people, it has nothing to do with me. From then on, I don’t think I am the Geng family anymore!” Geng Zhong straightened up and left .

“Hey! Hey! Geng Ye!” The Great Elder hugged Geng Zhongzhi’s arm, “Don’t go, don’t leave us! If you go, we’ll all lose our heads! The Empress thinks highly of you, how about …Can you put us in a good word?”

“When my mother and I were bullied by those servants, did you say something nice to our mother and son? When my mother had no money for medical treatment, I begged to the door of Geng’s house, did you say something nice to me? You If I hadn’t thought of me as a member of the Geng family, I wouldn’t be bothered to spill the muddy waters of your Geng family!”

   “Zhongzhi! Zhongzhi! If you have something to say, please speak up! We were wrong in the past, we were blind, and we didn’t know Mount Tai. You adults don’t count the faults of villains. Forgive us, Zhongzhi.”

   As the Great Elder spoke, he did not hesitate to kneel down for Geng Zhongzhi.

  He knelt down, and the second and third elders also knelt down.

“Zhongzhi, all my mistakes are my fault. I was deceived by lard, and I didn’t persuade your father to treat you and your mother kindly, nor did I persuade your father to find someone to replace you, but Zhongzhi, we will eventually It’s not the people in your house. Your tragedy is not caused by us, but by your father. You can’t put your father’s fault on us. Now that the Geng family is in trouble, as a member of the Geng family, you can’t blame Geng The family abandoned it.”

  The Geng family? To put it nicely, the eldest family has long since disappeared, and the current Geng family is nothing more than the second family and some family property left over from the past, and it really has little to do with Geng Zhongzhi.

   But at this juncture, who would dare to distance themselves from Geng Zhongzhi?

   Want to lose your head?

  Geng Zhongzhi sneered and said, “You haven’t given me any favors, so why should I help you? It seems that you can’t sell a few heads for a few dollars, right?”

  …

   Three days later, it was the day when the clan voted to determine the new Patriarch.

It stands to reason that the head of the family was appointed by the previous head of the family. After the big house was ransacked, he failed to draw up an heir. Geng Qingyun logically inherited everything in the family by virtue of his direct line status. Now that something happened to Geng Qingyun, he did not designate an heir. It will be decided jointly by the elders.

  Geng Qiaoshan got up early in the morning and went to the ancestral hall in a trembling spirit.

  The flesh and bones in the little aunt’s stomach are gone, let alone, he is really a son. But now, apart from him, he wants to see who else these stubborn old people can choose!

   Sit on it, and there is an imposing black-robed man sitting there. It is said that he is Geng Ye from the Dafang. Because he was persecuted by the Dafang and lived among the people for many years, he has avoided the disaster of the Dafang.

  But this person has no roots in the clan, has no connections in southern Xinjiang, and has never been involved in any clan affairs, let alone having a daughter who is as beautiful as a flower and can charm the prince.

   Nothing to be afraid of!

  Geng Qiaoshan sat down on the main seat, and looked at the elders arrogantly: “After so long, the elders must have figured out who is the new heir. Let’s vote now.”

   What ticket?

  His father is his only son!

what!

  The position of Patriarch is his now!

  Everything in the Geng family belongs to him!

  His daughter can be the princess, oh no, she can be the future queen, and he will also be the head of the country.

  Geng Zhongzhi took a panoramic view of his expression and shook his head.

  The elders bowed their heads for a chat, the first elder made a gesture, the second and third elders understood, and nodded, indicating that everything was done.

The Great Elder stood up, cleared his throat, and said in a loud voice: “After our discussion, we have decided to appoint the big house Geng Zhongzhi as the new head of the family! Geng Qiaoshan persecuted his biological father, mutilated his siblings, returned to his family, expelled from the Geng family, and never returned. !”

  Geng Qiaoshan… dumbfounded.

   What a magical family~

   In theory, there are two changes
