The lunch was basically a guest-host affair. Zhang Wanyin didn't mention the affairs of Wang and Xie's family again, nor did Yu Liyue. The two of them didn't mention it, so Yu Xijiao stopped asking about it.
The wind left traces, but now there are no traces of this incident.
After lunch, the three of them went downstairs to enjoy the plum blossoms together. Compared with painting in a room facing the wind in the early morning, now that they were full and warm, they came down to enjoy the scenery with their cloaks on. It was really a comfortable thing.
There is sunshine in the afternoon, and after the snow among the plum blossoms melts, the flowers become more colorful.
King Duan and King Yong also went down to the pavilion for a walk. They had a long lunch time, and when they came down, the female relatives had already gone downstairs.
The two parties are together, everyone knows each other, and there is another couple who is already an official couple, and the second couple is about to get married. The two parties are now together, it is a chance encounter, but it is not too rude.
Zhang Wanyin naturally stood with King Duan. Yu Liyue looked around, and finally stood with Yu Xijiao. Unlike Zhang Wanyin, they were not married yet. Her eyes swept over the tall and upright King Yong.
, a slight shyness appeared on his face.
Yu Xijiao folded a plum blossom in her hand, lowered her head and played with the plum blossom in her hand. After seeing the gift, she stood aside.
A guard came in in a hurry and saw the chamberlain standing aside. He rushed to one of the chamberlains and whispered something. The chamberlain's expression changed drastically.
He is the chamberlain beside King Duan.
The chamberlain hesitated for a moment, then took a few steps forward to his master and whispered something. The smile on Feng Lanxiu's face froze.
The movement was very abrupt, and the words he was about to say got stuck in his throat.
"Brother?" King Yong whispered.
Feng Lanxiu calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Something happened to Princess Ming and the eldest princess!"
While he was talking, the guards from Prince Yong's Mansion also came over to report the news.
"What happened to Princess Ming and the eldest daughter?" King Yong was shocked.
"Is it true?" Prince Zhongshan's eyes widened in shock, not believing it was true. "Isn't it the wrong news?"
The Prince of Zhongshan subconsciously looked at Yu Xijiao, who was standing under a flower branch, and his voice lowered unconsciously, "It's not a mistake...is it Princess An and the eldest daughter?"
Compared to the eldest princess Minghe who has been pampered by the palace for so many years, the eldest princess Anhe is the one who is most likely to get into trouble!
Yu Xijiao was here. Prince Zhongshan Feng Jingze spoke in a very low voice, but the few people around him still heard it clearly.
There was a hint of excitement in Zhang Wanyin's eyes. Not only did she return without success today, she was also quite sulky. If it were in front of other people, even if she suffered some losses, she would not feel embarrassed and would even encourage them.
As a daughter of a noble family, she has enough dignity and dignity to be a princess.
As Princess Duan, she still has this kind of magnanimity.
But the daughters of these aristocratic families could not be Yu Xijiao or Yu Liyue. Being weak in front of these two, Zhang Wanyin felt the fire in her heart.
I just want to trample them under my feet.
"Something happened to Princess Anhe's mansion?" Zhang Wanyin subconsciously followed, her voice was also low, her eyes showed shock, as if she was also shocked by the result.
Yu Xijiao was not standing too far away. As if she heard something, she suddenly stopped and turned her head to look at them.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Feng Lanxiu scolded, and then he handed over to Feng Yu, "Cousin, if something happens to Princess Ming and the eldest daughter, it must be a big deal. I will go back to the house first for my brother. I will invite my cousin next time.
, I apologize to a few of you."
"Excuse me, cousin." Feng Yu stepped back and said lazily.
"Cousin, I also have to go back." King Yong was silent for a moment and then spoke. Something happened to Ming and Princess Dachang. It was not a trivial matter. It might even cause some other problems. Both King Duan and King Yong had to respond as soon as possible.
The government must respond. If it is involved, it will be a disaster.
Zhang Wanyin went with King Duan.
Seeing that they were about to leave, Yu Liyue also hurriedly left. No matter from which direction, it was inappropriate for her to stay now.
Yu Xijiao left with her.
Something happened at Princess Minghe's house. The people present were either from the royal family or people related to the royal family. Everyone felt a little uneasy and had no intention of staying to have a banquet and enjoy the flowers.
The only ones who can really stay here with peace of mind are the Prince of Zhongshan and the Prince of Qi. These two are not in charge of things, and given their temperament, they are probably just watching the fun.
Prince Zhongshan had nothing to do and stayed here. After all, they were the only two who had nothing to do now, and it was unlikely that this matter would involve them!
The carriages from Prince Duan's Mansion and Prince Yong's Mansion left one by one. Feng Yu lazily turned around and walked inside, while Feng Jingze followed in a few steps.
The two of them returned to the loft and sat on the balcony. The waiter placed a chessboard and the two of them played a game with great interest.
Halfway through the chess game, when he saw that the board was full of white pieces, Feng Jingze dropped the black piece in his hand and said helplessly: "I lost again!"
He felt that he was far behind Feng Yu in Go, so he just wanted to relieve his boredom by having nothing to do.
"Let's do it again!" Feng Yu said with great interest and leisurely.
"Isn't the prince going back to the palace for a visit?" Feng Jingze asked while packing up the chess pieces.
Feng Yu's thinned lips curled up slightly, "It's already such a mess."
"If the Crown Prince doesn't look, will something be discovered?" Feng Jingze's hand paused, which was different from the behavior of Prince Qi in the past.
"Why are you so anxious? It's rare to come out and enjoy the scenery." Feng Yu said calmly.
I didn’t say I wouldn’t go, I just wouldn’t go for the time being. “Don’t worry, there will be a lot of chaos here. It’s not too big a deal to watch the excitement. You have to look at your interest. You have to take care of your own interest first.”
"What time is the right time to go back?" Feng Jingze was uneasy. He was also worried about Ming and the eldest princess. It was inconvenient for him to enter the palace, but it was convenient to go back and inquire about the news.
"The eldest princess Minghe is not so easy to submit to." Feng Yu chuckled, his voice was pleasant but extremely cold, "The eldest princess Minghe has been arrogant for so many years, not just because the emperor cares about his kindness. If she is really useless, it will
I won’t be so kind to her."
Feng Jingze didn't understand for a moment and was slightly stunned.
"On the issue of the emperor's succession, Princess Ming and the eldest princess played a decisive role. Otherwise, how could I, the emperor's uncle, really care about an old princess who has expired."
Feng Yu spoke in a sly tone, with no intention of hiding anything. After finishing clearing his own chess pieces, he elegantly raised his hand to pick up a few more for Feng Jingze.
"What...what?" Feng Jingze's hands trembled.
"Back then, the daughter of the eldest princess An and the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty robbed the husband of the daughter of the eldest princess An and the eldest princess. In the end, the daughter of the eldest princess An and the eldest princess had to marry far away from the Southern Tang Dynasty. With the identity and status of the eldest princess An and,
If it is not related to the kindness to the royal family..."
Before Feng Yu finished speaking, he picked up a chess piece between his slender fingers and dropped it casually.
"So, Princess Ming and the eldest princess made the emperor have to do this?" Feng Jingze was suddenly shocked and stunned.
"Otherwise!" Feng Yu lowered his eyes.
"First...the late emperor wanted to pass the throne to King Qi?" Feng Jingze's voice lowered unconsciously. Although there is such a saying among the royal family, it is just a saying after all. Not many people take it seriously. But now he listens
There are some other clues.
Feng Yu's face was extremely peaceful, and he pointed at the chessboard, indicating that Feng Jingze could make a move.
"Yes or no, my father is not destined for the throne because his leg is injured."
"Is it really an accident? They all said that the fire in the palace was an accident, and they all said that King Qi was a pity, but..." Feng Jingze was very excited. He had heard from his father that they were far away from the capital, but he also knew that
At that time, the late emperor was interested in the King of Qi. Although he did not establish a prince, everyone at that time said that the King of Qi was very likely.
But then something happened to King Qi, and then the late emperor died, and the current emperor was the last to succeed. The courtiers naturally chose the emperor. King Qi's legs were already bad at that time, and he had to go to Qi.
"Wait, let's see how they make trouble this time. Minghe will probably want to contact you if she has something left in her hand. You are the only straw she can grasp at the moment!" Feng Yu said lazily.
road.
When Feng Jingze saw him speaking such sharp words with a gentle face, a hint of anger flashed across his eyes, and then he became as gentle and jade-like as ever.
I couldn't help but feel shocked, and quickly lowered my eyes.
In the past, he was also conceited. Even when he entered the capital, he thought about how to play with the prince of Qi who came to the capital together, and use his own ability to deal with the prince of Qi who was ignorant, erratic and incompetent.
Things that can be easily grasped, if the time comes, put Prince Qi in front, he will be very safe.
Prince Qi is the biological son of the Queen Mother, and it is said that he is also the Queen Mother's favorite youngest son. Prince Qi's son should also be favored by the Queen Mother.
With Prince Qi here, he will not be in danger.
Now that I think about it, I am extremely arrogant. Compared to the Prince of Qi, I think too simply, and I am more than one step behind in many things. If it were not for the Prince of Qi, I would have lost my life long ago, and even got involved.
Father.
After all, the power of Zhongshan Kingdom is much smaller, and the relationship with the current emperor is also far away. Some things are actually beyond their control. After thinking about it, no matter how many ideas they have, they are gone.
The prince of Qi in front of me is very good! Not only his own will, but also his father's will. The merit of following the dragon is also a great merit...
"The house was ransacked, Master, it was really ransacked." The mother-in-law trembled all over and lay on the ground shivering.
When the eldest princess left, she thought it was just a false alarm and nothing would happen. The identity of her eldest princess was different from others, so how could she be copied by anyone who wanted to.
But now, it has actually come true.
"Copied?" Ming and the eldest princess murmured to themselves, then suddenly fell back and laughed, unable to control their voices.
"Master, please... please be gentler!" The mother-in-law's anxious voice was trembling, "You... please be more careful."
Ming and the eldest princess laughed and shed tears, covering their faces and sobbing.
Her head fell back, her sleeves covering her face. She had been running rampant all her life, and never expected that she would end up like this. Even though she had arranged the whereabouts of herself, her son, and her grandson, she still felt that there might be some possibility that the emperor would care about him.
Old love.
Not only was she his aunt, but she also helped him ascend to the throne.
What he said when he knelt in front of her, what he did now, it's over, everything is over...
