Xian Xian - Chapter 146
News of Lai Junchen’s imprisonment spread quickly to the court and the public. The next day the court, the courtier told the queen about the evil deeds the Junchen had committed in the past two years. The queen was furious and ordered the future Junchen to beheaded.
The penalty date for Lai Junchen’s execution is very close, and the conviction on the sixth day of the month will be executed on December 20. Beheading so quickly, on the one hand, the ministers hated Lai Junchen, on the other hand, it was also the empress’ acquiescence.
Beheadings are not always available throughout the year. Due to various considerations such as rituals, superstitions, and court finances, beheadings are often concentrated in autumn and winter, which is what people call “beheading after autumn.” During the opening of the dynasty, the emperor will ask the time to be cut in October, November, and December, and it will continue to be used thereafter.
It’s already December. If you miss this time, you will have to wait another year for Junchen. Whether a courtier or a queen? Don’t want to take this risk.
The early dynasty basically revolved around the crusade against Lai Junchen. The ministers became more and more excited, and the crimes of Lai Junchen became more and more serious. Finally, the queen took advantage of the trend to issue a public announcement to publicly criticize Lai Junchen’s behavior and rectify the atmosphere. Regal.
No matter what the ministers think in their hearts, they all chanted “the wise man”. The early dynasty ended in a eulogizing, the courtiers walked out in groups, and Li Chaoge also walked to the town demon division. Along the way, she noticed a lot of faint sights.
Last night there was so much noise in front of Zhang’s Mansion, and the Nanshi city was not far away, and the people coming and going were the most well-informed. After a night of work, everyone in the city knows that Lai Junchen offended Princess Sheng Yuan and was joined by Princess Sheng Yuan and her husband. Once? How rampant Lai Junchen was? Domineering and unscrupulous, he was defeated by Princess Sheng Yuan because of a trivial matter.
Lai Junchen has fallen. Now, it can be said that Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke have no rivals in the court.
After returning to the Demon Division of the town, Bai Qianhe came over and reported to Li Chaoge: “Shi Xuguang, or Shi Yang, has already been seen by our people. But he has a wound on his hand, and he can’t go to prison. I asked him to shut him out and wait for his hands to be raised before going to jail.”
Yesterday Li Chaoge clashed with Lai Junchen in the street, and Bai Qianhe took advantage of the chaos and got many black hands. Later, Li Chaoge and Lai Junchen were called away by the queen, and Bai Qianhe stayed outside to deal with the aftermath, drove the crowd, restored order, and took Shi Yang away by the way.
Li Chaoge nodded: “Okay. Call him a doctor, take a good look at his hands, and then interrogate them in a few days? It’s not too late. It’s not easy to read at night for many years. pity.”
Bai Qianhe should be, he handed Li Chaoge a list with words like ghost claws on it: “Is this the thing that Zhang Mansion was snatched and smashed yesterday? .”
Li Chaoge took it over and took a look, and was hurt by those ghostly painted and ugly eyes. She just glanced at it and paid it back to Bai Qianhe: “You can find someone with a good calligraphy to copy it again, and then give it to the imperial eunuch. The Zhang brothers are the empress’s beloved, no matter how much money they lose, the empress will? Dealt with.”
Bai Qianhe curled his lips, unconvinced that his words were said to be ugly. He put the papers away and paused, his face seemed to hesitate.
Li Chaoge noticed that he was wrong and asked? “What’s the matter?”
Bai Qianhe put away his dangling man with a solemn expression, and said, “Commander, what happened yesterday has been spread all over. We all know that Lai Junchen deceived people too much at the time. He was a **** person? Can’t bear it, but other things. People don’t know. They only see that your husband and wife want the wind and the wind and the rain and the rain, and even the most trusted pets around the queen can be defeated. Things must be reversed, and prosperity must decline. Now you and Gu Siqing are in the limelight. Too Sheng, I’m afraid it’s not a good thing.”
Li Chaoge put down his hand and sighed slightly: “I know. But if you don’t advance in the hall, you will retreat. How can there be? What is the best way of both worlds?”
The weak can hide themselves in the crowd, and wisely protect themselves against each other, but those who stand on the top are not qualified to say no. She knows that showing off is not a good thing, but she has no way to avoid it.
In the Palace of Wei, Li Changle raised his eyebrows after hearing the words of the court lady: “What did the queen really say last night?”
The maid nodded: “There is absolutely nothing false about what Liu Lang has heard.”
Li Changle furrowed his brows, and felt an extremely bad feeling in his heart. Li Changle took a hairpin and handed it to the lady of the palace, saying: “You did a good job today, go back quickly, don’t be discovered. Send a message to Rokuro, let him continue to stare at the queen, once there is news, send it to me immediately .”
The jewellery worn by Li Changle was of great value, and the maid was overjoyed and left thankfully. After the palace lady left, Li Changle couldn’t help standing up and pacing back and forth in the house. The empress said last night that Li Chaoge would be like this forever, how could it be of great use? Li Chaogeru? Now he is powerful and powerful, but what can he do?
Li Changle’s heart is extremely heavy. She has been guarding Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanxiao, but she has forgotten Li Chaoge. Could it be that the queen wanted to pass the throne to Li Chaoge?
Absurd, how can there be? This kind of thing! Li Changle was so angry that the queen usurped the throne already? It’s perverse? The empress actually moved the thought of passing the throne to Li Chaoge? Since ancient times, the family inheritance has to be inherited by the son. There is no reason for the son to hire his son-in-law or adopt the family inheritance.
The most important thing is that Li Huai is Li Changle’s closest elder brother, and Wu Yuanqing is Li Changle’s nominal husband-in-law. Even if the worst happens, Wu Yuanxiao will eventually become the throne, and that Wu Yuanxiao is also her uncle. If Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke win in the end, then Li Changle will draw the bamboo basket and have nothing.
Li Changle was very upset, she found that since Li Chaoge appeared, her life? has become a mess. The fiancé changed his mind, his father and brother passed away one after another, his friends were alienated one by one, and he was forced to marry someone he didn’t like. Li Changle paid so much, isn’t it just to make a comeback against the wind? If in the end Li Chaoge ascends the throne, then Li Changle still wants to see Li Chaoge’s face for a lifetime?
Li Changle felt hate after thinking about it, no? She would never allow this to happen. Li Changle couldn’t help thinking, if not, how good would Li Chaoge be. She has always been the only daughter her parents loved most. She will marry Pei Ji’an smoothly. After the death of her father, the throne will be inherited by Li Shan. The queen will not have a chance to usurp the throne. Li Changle does not have to be with Pei Chuyue, Gao Zihan and others. Fall out. In a few years, Li Changle will have children with Pei Ji’an. She has the best husband-in-law, the strongest in-laws, and the brother who loves her the most. She will always live in the envy of everyone and lead a happy life.
But now, everything is ruined. One of Li Changle’s two brothers died young and the other was imprisoned. She was forced to share a bed with a person whom she completely despised. However, Li Chaoge stepped on the bones of the people and went straight to the sky. The two husbands and wives were in the wild. Now there is even? Asked about the possibility of Ding’s throne. Li Changle wanted to stop, but Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke were very trusted by the Queen. Both of them had a good reputation in the DPRK and the people, and they also had real power in their hands. Together, the two of them can be said to be invincible and invincible. What did Li Changle use to fight these two people?
Li Changle paced back and forth on the ground, getting more and more anxious. Li Changle couldn’t find any bargaining chips. Although she had placed a male pet next to the empress, it was fine to make a small mess. Once it happened to the court, the two brothers couldn’t speak at all. What’s more, Li Changle hasn’t been able to completely control Zhang Yanzhi and Zhang Yanchang.
Zhang Yanchang is the poison of a sweetheart sword. Zhang Yanzhi is even more ambiguous. Li Changle has to guard against being bitten by the second Zhang. She really doesn’t dare to put the odds on the male pet. Li Changle counted all his relatives, friends and old friends, but none of them could be connected. The Pei family and the Changsun family have left Luoyang, and all the Li kings have been exiled. Although Pei Chuyue handkerchiefs are still alive, they can’t be husbands. Lord of the home. As for Li Changle’s own husband’s family?
Li Changle and Wu Yuanqing look close together, she looks down on Wu Yuanqing, why didn’t Wu Yuanqing guard her. Li Changle was full of irritability, and a maid walked outside and said: “Princess Guangning, the old lady wants you to go to the Palace of Liang.”
Li Changle was in a bad mood at first. When Wu Meng called her, he became more upset: “I’m not free, I won’t go.”
The maid was embarrassed and said: “Princess, the old lady said you haven’t been in a long time? Please give her peace. Today? Princess Liang is ill. If the princess doesn’t go back, she won’t have to call her mother-in-law in the future.”
Li Changle rolled his eyes and was about to say something when he suddenly moved his eyes slightly: “Princess Liang is sick?”
·
“There is nothing serious about Princess Liang’s illness. The old man prescribes a few medications. As long as the princess has no worries and is good for life, she will be raised and will get better after the Chinese New Year.”
Wu Meng nodded, and asked the maid to follow the imperial physician to prescribe medicine. Li Changle followed behind Wu Meng’s family and asked: “Mother, why did my sister-in-law suddenly get sick?”
Wu Meng sneered, and said: “Princess Guangning? Remember that she is the wife of the Wu family? I thought that Princess Guangning was busy with her grandfather. I forgot about my mother-in-law. “
Wu Yuanqing has countless confidantes, and Li Changle is not to be outdone. Wu Yuanqing was busy playing with her and didn’t say anything to Li Changle, but Wu Meng’s family couldn’t stand it at all.
When Wu Meng met someone, he complained that his second daughter-in-law was not filial to her. After one year of marriage, there was no movement in his stomach. Li Changle knew that he was wrong, turned one eye to these words, and silently endured it. However, the Wu Meng clan became more and more adept. Recently, he often called Li Changle to serve her, and asked Li Changle to obey the woman’s way and not to go out to attend banquets all day long.
Because the queen is in power, the women’s family banquets become more and more fun, and it is common to ask men to accompany them. Li Changle first brought the man back, but later saw that the influence was not good, so he simply went to other people’s houses to play and stayed all day. What has Li Changle been doing for such a long time?
This kind of blindfolding tricks can’t even trick a three-year-old child. Wu Meng’s voice is stunned by gossip every day. Today, when I saw Li Changle, he ran on strangely.
Li Changle has something to do today, so he tolerated Wu Meng’s rudeness, and said, “How long has the sister-in-law been sick? Will not delay business?”
Wu Meng’s sneer: “The current daughter-in-law is really delicate. One said that he couldn’t be beaten, and the other just blew the wind, and fell ill. Fortunately, it is still? Yes? Side concubine, otherwise, wouldn’t it be Yuan Xiao’s face? .”
In Wu Meng’s words, there is a gun and a stick, and neither of the two daughters-in-law is good. Li Changle just didn’t hear it, as if he was relieved, and said, “That’s good, yes? The side concubine will share the burdens with the sister-in-law, and the sister-in-law will be able to recover from the illness with peace of mind. Mother-in-law, Wang Liang today? When will he come back?”
Wu Meng finally felt something was wrong, she turned her head and looked at Li Changle curiously: “The sun is hitting the west? The edge is coming out, you ask? What is this?”
Li Changle smiled: “I have something I want to discuss with King Liang. Speaking of our family? It’s been a long time? We have eaten together, so I will call King Wei back. Our family? Have a good meal.”
·
The north wind whistled, and the dead branches outside the house were whimpered by the wind. Concubine Liang Xu’s family leaned on the pillow, some of them stared outside in a daze.
The maid reminded softly: “Wang Hao, you are still ill? Can’t be tired. Go back to bed and rest.”
When Xu heard the title of the maid, he lowered his head and smiled bitterly. princess? Where is she? What kind of princess looks like. She is from the Wu family? She married Wu Yuanxiao when she was not well-established, and she was right in line with the Wu family at that time. Who knows, the martial arts behind? There? Such a great fortune.
After the queen came to the throne, Wu Yuanxiao and Wu Yuanqing brothers became kings one after another, and Wu Yuanqing even married the queen’s direct daughter. The Xu family’s position in the Wu family became more and more awkward, and outsiders kept giving Wu Yuanxiao concubines, many of whom were noble ladies. Xu’s and Wu Yuan’s filial piety are just blind marriages. There is no feeling or affection between the husband and wife. Now the Xu family is old and faint, without talent and skill, and the mouth is still awkward. Miss Hou.
Xu’s name is the princess, but in fact he only bears a name, but the steward? Quan has given her a tall and noble concubine early. Xu knows that he can’t fight, so he doesn’t want to fight, so he greets her mother-in-law and takes care of her husband’s daily necessities. Although there are many clever people around Wu Meng’s flattery, Wu Yuanxiao doesn’t know how to wear clothes and socks made by Xu’s family.
But the Xu family still insisted that this is the wife’s duty. She believes in the day and sees people’s hearts for a long time, and her mother-in-law and husband will always remember her well. But after all, Xu was not better than a young girl. She fell ill when she greeted Wu Meng with a cold.
Falling ill at the end of the year can be said to be very unpleasant. Xu wants to get better soon, but the more anxious she is, the more crooked her body becomes. Seeing Xu’s lonely appearance, the maid felt unbearable, and said: “Wang Hao, don’t worry, you are the concubine, no matter how spoiled the concubine is, you will not be able to go. The doctor said a few days ago, as long as you rest at ease. , Wait for the new year and it will be all right. Both the prince and the old lady? To give you peace of mind to recuperate, the princess don’t think too much.”
Xu used a veil to cover the cough of his mouth, and said: “I didn’t think too much, I really don’t understand those ledgers and gift lists. It would be better to leave them to the concubine. For example, the prince’s identity is different today. In the past, my old wife? Don’t come out to shame the prince.”
Xu said that she didn’t care, but she had been sick for so many days, so she didn’t even have a visitor? How much is it? Is she lonely? The maid sighed and did not know how to persuade, so she went down to give Xu’s decoction.
The maid just went out and bumped into someone head on. The maid was very surprised when she saw the visitor: “Princess Guangning? Why are you here?”
When Xu heard the movement in the room, he struggled to get up, “Who is here?”
The maid happily drew in the curtain and helped Xu to sit up: “Wang Hao, Princess Guangning is here to see you.”
Xu’s eyes lit up, and it turned out to be Li Changle. For the Chinese New Year, Wu Meng and Wu Yuanxiao would not condescend to visit Xu’s family. Those favored concubines did not put Xu in their eyes. Unexpectedly, the only person who came to visit Xu’s family was actually Li Changle.
Xu sits down, and she sees herself in the dusty family clothes, while Li Changle on the other side has a beautiful dress and a beautiful crown. She can’t help but feel ashamed: “I am deserted here, there is no good tea to entertain the younger brothers and sisters, and the younger brothers and sisters are wronged.”
Li Changle was sitting in front of Xu’s couch in an exquisite and gorgeous long dress. He didn’t seem to care about the shabby surroundings at all. Did she touch the tea brought by the maid and ask?: “Sister-in-law, are you getting better these days?”
Xu’s head lowered his head and smiled bitterly: “It’s just the same. Blame me for not being able to live up to the Chinese New Year, but I fell ill. There should be a lot of banquets in these gods? There are a lot of banquets, my younger brothers and sisters, why bother to come. Look at me. I am unlucky here. It would be bad if I passed the sickness to my younger siblings.”
Li Changle said, “Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? When I was just married, it was thanks to my sister-in-law who persuaded me to prevent me from thinking about it. Now think about it, my sister-in-law is right, life? Such a long life, why can’t I get through.”
Seeing Li Changle’s thoughts, Xu nodded his head and replied, “It is precisely this principle. As long as people are alive, they want anything? They can plan slowly, but if they are gone, then everything will be empty. You can figure it out again. But, after all, do you have a family? Reliance on, in-laws? Don’t dare to offend you. Although King Wei doesn’t have a family, he doesn’t dare to bring people in front of you to get in the way. Fourth concubine, as long as it doesn’t hinder you, just open one eye and close one eye. When you get old, those Yingyingyanyan will naturally disappear. You two will be the last companions.”
Li Changle’s eyes slowly swept across Xu’s face, with a smile on his lips: “Sister-in-law said that she didn’t expect her sister-in-law to speak little, but she sees so clearly in her heart.”
Xu sighed self-deprecatingly and said, “I’m not like you, I’ve been reading and writing since I was a child. I have someone who teaches piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting. All I know are clumsy truths I figured out. I’m clumsy. Don’t laugh at me if you don’t speak beautiful things.
Li Changle smiled and said, “How can I laugh at my sister-in-law? My sister-in-law said nothing more? It makes no sense.”
Xu’s family was very embarrassed, Wu Yuanxiao disliked her being old and was embarrassed to take her out, and the concubine rooms below did not regard her as a stubborn old wife in their eyes. Only Li Changle, a princess, is willing to be her “younger sister”.
Xu’s heart was quite moved. She moved sincerely, and she said her heart to Li Changle: “Brother sister, I know you don’t like King Wei, but it’s done, the Wu family? is your best destination. God. There are many handsome and talented families in the capital, but if you marry them, it will be a long time and you will provoke the queen’s jealousy. Only the martial arts family is your protection and yours. Weapons. You are a princess. I shouldn’t have my own personal affairs, but I still want to persuade you to keep your minds in mind and don’t get involved with the foreigner. While you are young, hurry up and give birth to a few children with Wang Wei. With a child, you are truly safe.”
Li Changle had a smile on his face, his smile stiffer as he went to the back. She actually knew that the Xu family was right. This woman was vulgar and mediocre, but she looked at things very transparently, much better than those from the family who claimed to be full of poems and chants. No fancy decorations, no hypocrisy that hurts the spring and sadness of the autumn, but it is often such simple and crude words that are the real philosophy.
Li Changle instructed the maid to bring a bowl of medicine from the rear, and slowly stirred: “Thank you for reminding me, I will keep it in mind if you say today. I still want to recover from the illness, so drink the medicine first.”
Xu nodded subconsciously, she looked at the exquisite porcelain bowl in Li Changle’s hand, and suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Xu looked at Li Changle suspiciously: “How do you know my prescription?”
The woman was born from a humble background, but she reacted unexpectedly quickly. Li Changle saw that Xu’s family had already noticed something wrong, and stopped being polite, and immediately said: “Hold her down, don’t let her yell.”
The mother behind Li Changle stepped forward without saying a word, firmly restraining Xu’s family. No matter how stupid the Xu family was, she knew that the bowl of medicine was wrong. She struggled desperately and shouted in a high voice: “Come here, King Liang, old lady, Princess Guangning, what’s the difference? Come on!”
Xu yelled several times, but it was as silent and dead outside, and there was no life. Xu’s heart sighed and realized that no one would be coming.
Li Changle can come here, Wu Meng clan, Wu Yuanqing, and even Wu Yuanxiao, are all tacitly permitted.
Xu tried his best to avoid, or was someone pinched his mouth and opened his teeth. Li Changle sat opposite, clasping his hands, his eyes calm, just as glamorous and noble as when Xu first saw her.
Li Changle watched the attendant pouring Xu’s medicine with his own eyes. A bowl of medicine quickly bottomed out. The mother released Xu’s and Xu immediately fell on the couch. Xu retched and lay on the side of the couch, struggling to squeeze his voice. But the nurse who was pouring medicine was a veteran in the palace, how could she give Xu a chance to spit it out. Xu deducted for a long time, and slowly felt cramps in his abdomen. She clutched her belly and twisted together in pain. She looked at Li Changle in embarrassment. From this perspective, Li Changle was beautiful, high above, and all over her body, revealing an inevitable arrogance.
I don’t know if the pain is still sad, tears slowly flowed from the corner of Xu’s eyes. Facing Li Changle’s direction, she gradually lost her eyes: “It turns out that the palace really turns people into monsters.”
Last year, Li Changle just married into the martial arts family? Xu family was afraid that she could not think about it, and persuaded her that the palace is the most terrifying place in the world, and would make her mother not a mother and her sister not a sister, risking great disrespect to remind Li Changle as soon as possible? . Unexpectedly, Li Changle eventually became a monster.
Xu’s eyes were wide open, and his wrists hung down on the side of the couch.
·
“What, Xu died?” The empress was sitting in the palace, frowning deeply, “Didn’t the emperor say it’s not serious? Why did you suddenly die?”
Li Changle lowered his eyebrows and said with grief: “I don’t know. Mother, you also know that the uncle and Xu’s feelings are weak, she has not had a child for many years, and watching the beautiful concubines enter the mansion one by one, it is inevitable to be depressed. . After a long time, the body won’t work?”
The empress sighed slightly. Although she felt suddenly, Xu’s was just a niece and daughter-in-law, and it was not worth the empress’s too much thought. The queen said: “After all, she has worked for the martial artist for half of her life. She has not made any mistakes for many years, and she is also a person. Let her have a funeral and let her go in the style of Princess Liang.”
Everyone is dead, how could Li Changle care about this. She obediently responded. After a while, her eyes lightly looked at the queen, and she said softly: “Uncle brother is still young after all, and Prince Liang can’t live without it? The person in charge, I think, I have to pick a continuation for King Liang as soon as possible. To marry.”
Datang didn’t have such sayings as “ping his wife” and “fuzheng”, and using concubine as his wife was to be exiled. Even if Wu Yuanxiao’s concubine is able to be favored again, she will be a concubine for a day, and she will be a concubine for life. Wu Yuanxiao’s regular wife still wants to marry from outside with a big sedan chair.
Is the queen buried for Xu’s scenery? It is the greatest kindness, she can’t let her nephew be mourned by Xu’s wife. The queen nodded and said, “Let your mother-in-law choose to go. No matter who you are in the whole city, as long as you are in love, you can send words to the palace and I will give you the marriage.”
Li Changle’s eyes turned slightly, a group of innocent girls, and asked?: “Mother, what do you think about letting Sister Sheng Yuan marry King Liang?”
