Chapter 1510 King Chu: This matter indeed brings disgrace to the Tian family
Chapter 1509 King Chu: This matter indeed brings disgrace to the Tian family...
In the 19th year of Chongping, New Year's Eve——
Throughout the 19th year of Chongping, a series of major events occurred in the Chen and Han Dynasties, from the pacification of the Eastern Han Dynasty in Liaodong, to the attack on the Imperial Ancestral Temple, the death of the emperor, and the succession of the new emperor. They experienced many major events, which can be described as political turmoil.
, one after another.
On New Year's Eve, every household is decorated with peach charms, creating an indescribably festive atmosphere.
Although it is a period of national mourning, it is impossible for ordinary people to celebrate the New Year.
Palace garden, Hanyuan Hall, inner study room——
The King of Chu was now sitting behind the lacquered wooden table, looking at the memorials delivered by the six departments and hundreds of yamen. In fact, it was not a big deal. It was just a memorial of loyalty to the new king delivered by the governors of the provinces by a 600-mile horse.
At this moment, Sang Yao, the chief internal supervisor, bowed forward and said softly in a thin voice: "Your Majesty, Qiu Liang, the commander of the Jinyi Mansion, is outside asking for an audience."
As for the original Xiang Daiquan in the Daming Palace, he had already been sent to guard the late emperor's mausoleum.
As the saying goes, an emperor has his own ministers, and the same is true for his chamberlains.
King Chu put down the brush in his hand, called out, and said: "Xuan."
After a while, I saw a guard in brocade clothes, wearing a flying fish suit made of black and red satin, gold thread, and an embroidered spring knife at his waist, coming from outside. He was none other than Qiu Liang.
Qiu Liang walked a few steps quickly, saluted the King of Chu, and said: "I have seen the Holy One, long live the Holy One."
"Commander Qiu is safe." King Chu looked at Qiu Liang, then turned to Sang Yao, the supervisor at the side, and said, "Show me your seat, Commander Qiu."
Qiu Liang bowed his hands to the King of Chu and thanked him. He sat down on the embroidered pier that Sang Yao had moved and turned to the King of Chu to show his respect.
King Chu put down the brush in his hand, looked at him aggressively, and asked: "What is the purpose of Commander Qiu coming here this time?"
Qiu Liang sat upright and said, "Your Majesty, I have important matters concerning Prince Wei to report to Your Majesty."
King Chu raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "What about Prince Wei?"
"It was previously reported to Emperor Daxing that Prince Wei and the eldest princess of Jinyang have a son." Qiu Liang said in a deep voice with deep eyes under his sharp eyebrows.
King Chu: "???"
How could this happen?
No, how could Ziyu do such a ridiculous thing?
Yes, the reason why Ziyu met his father in the first place was closely related to the introduction from Jinyang's aunt. Perhaps after going back and forth, a personal relationship developed.
The King of Chu really didn't know about Jia Heng and the eldest princess of Jinyang, because when Emperor Chongping knew about it, he suppressed the matter with the inner guards and did not spread it to the world.
Qiu Liang was silent for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, Emperor Daxing is aware of this matter."
King Chu frowned, his eyes flashed coldly, and he asked in surprise: "What did Emperor Daxing say back then?"
My sister and my daughter serve one person together. How can I endure it with my father's temper?
Qiu Liang nodded and said: "At the beginning, when Liaodong was still undecided, Emperor Daxing relied heavily on the military strategy of Prince Wei, but he still held back. Perhaps he was worried about the face of the Tian family."
King Chu's expression changed, and he said in a deep voice: "This matter has indeed brought disgrace to the Tian family..."
It is really appalling to have an aunt and nephew serve together.
No, how could Jia Ziyu treat his aunt like this? He was simply... unworthy of a human being.
At this moment, a negative emotion of jealousy and resentment arose in King Chu's heart, almost like a raging tide that was about to drown and engulf King Chu.
After all, the emperor was amazed by the elegance of the eldest princess of Jinyang when he was a boy, and he has been thinking about her for many years.
I originally thought that after becoming the emperor, I would have the opportunity to kiss Fangze, but unexpectedly Jia Heng got there first. The emotions in my heart were really complicated and inexplicable.
Qiu Liang frowned, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, saying: "Your Majesty, Prince Wei is really ridiculous."
King Chu was silent for a moment, his eyes flashed fiercely, and he said: "Let me think about this matter."
This matter is related to the face of the Tian family, and Emperor Daxing was not guilty before. It is obviously inappropriate for him to rashly reopen old scores.
Qiu Liang's eyes flickered under his thick eyebrows, but he didn't say much else.
After all, alienating the relationship between monarch and ministers is not something that can be accomplished overnight.
King Chu calmed down, looked deeply, and whispered: "Jinyi Mansion needs to send more people to control the troops and horses to prevent the previous incident from happening again."
After Qiu Liang heard this, he raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the ministers will select a new group of investigators, but there are many people in the Jinyi Mansion who were promoted by Prince Wei in the past. There are many constraints on the ministers when they act."
At this moment, Qiu Liang was undoubtedly asking for power from the King of Chu.
The King of Chu nodded and said: "Prince Wei now only holds the title of Commander-in-Chief of Jinyi and does not interfere in Jinyi's affairs. You just need to act boldly and decisively. You previously led the Jinyi Mansion Guards to quell the chaos and made great contributions to the country. I will grant you this title."
As a third-class earl, the cabinet will draft an edict after the new year begins."
Jia Ziyu has controlled Jinyi Mansion for five years, and his party members and cronies are all over Jinyi's offices. Now it is time for Qiu Liang to clean up.
When Qiu Liang heard this, he made a "pop" sound, knelt down and said loudly: "I am a humble minister thanking you for your kindness. Even if your heart and mind are ruined, it is difficult to repay you."
The King of Chu thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "In addition, Chen Yuan, the remnant of the former King of Zhao, and the Jinyi Mansion must also make every effort to investigate and arrest the relevant criminals without any mistakes."
At the beginning, his eldest son died at the hands of Chen Yuan and Bai Lian's traitors, and this revenge had not yet been avenged.
After Qiu Liang left, King Chu's face as white as jade became gloomy, and a cold light shone in his eyes under his sword-shaped eyebrows.
This Jia Ziyu was so romantic and lustful that he even got involved with the eldest princess and even let the eldest princess bear him two children. It was simply unreasonable!
King Chu felt inexplicably angry and couldn't help but slap the table.
However, he has just succeeded to the throne and still relies heavily on Jia Ziyu. These matters can only be left to the future to settle accounts.
Jia Ziyu was excellent in both writing and military strategy. With his talent and intelligence, he stayed in the military department as an advisor and consulted on state affairs, but should not lead troops.
In fact, this is how the King of Chu positioned Jia Heng as a national policy advisor, instead of Jia Heng being in charge of actual power.
King Chu's face was clouded, he suppressed the complicated thoughts in his heart, and immediately, without saying a word, he left the inner study and headed towards the harem.
In the palace——
Zhen Qing was talking to her son. After this beauty became the queen of her mother's world, her whole body began to be filled with a graceful and bright aura.
Zhen Qing stretched out a slender hand, pinched her son's pink face, and said with a smile: "After the New Year, I'll hire a teacher for you. Maybe it's time to learn how to read and write."
"Your Majesty is here." At this moment, an internal prisoner came in and bowed to report.
Zhen Qing put down her son, and the plump and round millstone left the chair. When Yingying stood up, she raised her eyes to look at King Chu and said, "Why are you here, Your Majesty?"
"I came here to see you and Jie'er." King Chu said softly with a smile on his fair face.
Zhen Qing's face was full of a gentle smile like a good wife and mother, and she said: "Your Majesty, please take care of all the things ahead."
"That's almost it. Today is the New Year's Eve, so there will be fewer people worshiping." King Chu flew under the sword eyebrows on his temples, his eyes were clear and flashing, and he said warmly.
Zhen Qing responded softly, then raised her beautiful head with green hair like a waterfall, looked at King Chu with a fixed gaze, and said: "Your Majesty, all the new year's goods in the palace are fully prepared."
Since we are in the period of national mourning, we can't do anything grand, and the festive and lively atmosphere will be much lighter.
King Chu's face paused slightly, he looked at Zhen Qing and called out: "Zitong, I want to tell you something."
It is worth mentioning that in the novels of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Zitong was the title given by the emperor to the queen, and was not a title exclusive to a certain queen.
When Zhen Qing heard this, her plump and bright jade face looked slightly surprised, and she turned to look at the female official on the side. Immediately, the female official bowed gracefully and retreated slowly.
Zhen Qing's heart moved slightly and asked: "Your Majesty, what happened outside to make you so solemn?"
The King of Chu was silent for a moment and said straight to the point: "How come the eldest princess of Jinyang also had an affair with Ziyu and had a child."
Zhen Qing: "..."
This... She had vaguely heard some rumors in the palace before, and that bastard seemed to have got the eldest princess.
After all, it was through the eldest princess that I was met by the emperor.
King Chu frowned, feeling surprised and said: "This is really unbelievable."
Zhen Qing's beautiful eyes were as bright as water. She was surprised for a moment and asked: "Where did your Majesty hear this?"
"Qiu Liang, the commander of Jinyi Mansion, just entered the palace and mentioned this matter. When I first heard about it, I was really shocked." King Chu frowned, his eyes were deep, and there was still some anger surging in his heart.
Zhen Qing said: "Jia Ziyu has always been a romantic person, so this matter is just an ordinary thing."
King Chu frowned and said in a deep voice: "But you can't do this nonsense..."
Zhen Qing raised her eyebrows and said: "It was not a private rumor in the clan before that Chan Yue is not the daughter of the eldest princess, so it's not a big deal."
"What about Xianning?" King Chu said in a low voice with cold eyes under his sword-shaped eyebrows.
It is quite absurd to start from Xianning.
Zhen Qing said: "Your Majesty, what happened has already happened, do you still want to pursue Jia Ziyu for deceiving the emperor?"
The problem is that when the two of them got along, the King of Chu was not yet the king, so the crime of deceiving the king was out of the question.
The King of Chu's eyes flickered darkly, and he said in a deep voice: "After my father knew about it, he still acquiesced in this matter. I can't say anything else now. It's just that this kind of thing would be an insult to the royal family."
Although there is no way to avoid referring back to the past, it is obviously not suitable for the King of Chu to talk about the matter after the late emperor's "tacit approval".
Perhaps when the general ledger is settled with Jia Heng in the future, all of this will be written down in the evidence.
Zhen Qing said: "Your Majesty, now that Jia Ziyu has the power to protect the emperor, it is not good to bring up the old things again, so as not to rekindle the grudge."
It can be said that the King of Chu ascended the throne with the support of Jia Heng. Now that he has just succeeded to the throne, his prestige has not yet spread widely to both the government and the public, it is not appropriate to have a rash conflict with Jia Heng.
King Chu raised his eyebrows, his eyes flashed faintly, and he said warmly: "Yes, we can only leave this matter at this."
Zhen Qing called out and persuaded: "Your Majesty, Jia Ziyu is this kind of person. If he has no shortcomings, it will be difficult to control him."
She even gave birth to a pair of twins to that bastard.
King Chu sighed and said, "That's what you said."
If you are really neither greedy for money nor lustful, it will indeed be difficult to control.
At this moment, Mammy entered the palace holding Zhen Qing's daughter Yinyin, called Zhen Qing and the King of Chu in a soft voice, and said: "Mother, Father."
Zhen Qing smiled and said, "Yin Yin, come here, come here and let the queen hug you."
The little girl responded sweetly, and immediately, in the embrace of her grandma, she came closer and hugged Zhen Qing in her arms.
"Baji..."
While she was talking, the little girl came close to Zhen Qing and kissed her rosy and pink face. Her soft and fragrant breath oozed out, and her movements were quite intimate.
The King of Chu stared at his beautiful daughter, with a hint of kindness in his eyes, and said: "I told the cabinet to come up with a good title for Yinyin. It's time to make her a princess. I can give her the title after the Chinese New Year."
.”
Zhen Qing smiled and said, "That Yin Yin is really lucky."
The emperor and empress cuddled together and talked quietly, as if they had a rare family atmosphere with a touch of warmth and harmony on this New Year's Eve.
…
…
On the other side, Jia Heng and Chen Xiao left the mansion together and went to a mansion in the street.
It was Gu Ruoqing who came to the place agreed with Jia Heng through Chen Xiao.
This is a house with a vast area and rugged rocks. In the side room, Gu Ruoqing is sitting behind a lacquered wood desk and playing a guzheng.
As you move the ten fingers of your delicate hands, you can hear the melodious sound of the piano, just like the tinkling of mountain springs, clear and sweet.
At this moment, two figures appeared on a screen made of splendid makeup, it was Jia Heng and Chen Xiao.
Gu Ruoqing's face paused slightly, and she said in surprise: "You are here."
Jia Heng nodded, sat down nearby, looked at Gu Ruoqing's beautiful and charming face, and said warmly: "Ruoqing, long time no see."
Gu Ruoqing stopped stroking the strings in his hand, raised his beautiful face, and under his eyebrows, his eyes were as bright as water, and said: "It's Qiu Liang. It was Chen Yuan who saved Qiu Liang."
Jia Heng couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this and said, "Chen Yuan rescued Qiu Liang?"
This matter sounds interesting.
Gu Ruoqing said: "Chen Yuan originally sent people to assassinate Qiu Liang, but Ruan Yongdexu, who was in charge of the matter, changed his mind after seeing Qiu Liang being assassinated."
Chen Xiaoxiuli frowned, her bright eyes flickered, and she said, "Chen Yuan probably wants to leave a secret behind."
Jia Heng said: "Because of his previous support outside the palace, Qiu Liang is now a confidant of the new emperor. It is impossible for him to collude with outsiders to murder the new emperor."
Chen Xiao frowned, his beautiful eyes sparkling like water, and said: "It is possible that the two parties will collude to deal with you together."
Jia Heng smiled to himself and said, "This is basically obvious."
After the death of Emperor Chongping, Chen Yuan's great revenge was avenged, but because of him, Chen Yuan basically lost the possibility of successfully usurping the throne.
Gu Ruoqing nodded and said: "Now that the new monarch has succeeded, Chen Yuan seems to be waiting for you to turn against the new monarch and reap the benefits."
Jia Heng said: "Chen Yuan's good calculation has been going on since Liaodong was here, and it still hasn't changed."
In this process, Liaodong was wiped out, and Chen Yuan also lost the vitality of the White Lotus Sect. Without wings to support him, even if the situation really collapsed, there would be few opportunities to get something out of the fire.
Under her green eyebrows, Gu Ruoqing looked at the boy in the python suit with eyes like dew, and said, "How will the new king treat you after he succeeds to the throne?"
Jia Heng said: "It's actually okay for now, but suspicion and precautions in the future are inevitable."
While talking, Jia Heng came closer, took Gu Ruoqing's slender hand, and said: "Ruoqing, when you come back this time, don't go back again. It's too dangerous for Chen Yuan after all."
As Gu Ruoqing spoke, he said "Hmm", and when he was hugged by the young man, a light blush seemed to appear on both sides of his face as white as jade.
Jia Heng suddenly embraced the beauty's plump and delicate body, with a hint of longing in his eyes, and said: "Ruoqing."
While speaking, he gently took Gu Ruoqing's slender hand, pinched the beauty's smooth and round chin, brought it to the beauty's moist and delicate lips, and suddenly moved closer, plundering the luscious and sweet scent as much as possible.
Gu Ruoqing's beautiful face was as red as drunkenness, and her delicate body almost collapsed into a ball of mud, allowing the boy in the python suit to be intimate with her.
After all, they fell in love with Jia Heng in North Korea, and now they are reunited after a long absence.
Chen Xiao snorted coldly, and a touch of ridicule could not help but appear on her clear and beautiful face.
The two people talked and then hugged each other and began to chew.
Jia Heng gently hugged Gu Ruoqing's shoulders, stared at the blushing face, and said warmly: "Ruoqing."
While the two were talking, they walked towards the inner room.
Gu Ruoqing raised her beautiful eyebrows, her beautiful eyes were shining like water, and seemed to be making ripples silently, and she said softly: "Your Majesty."
Jia Heng held the beauty in his arms, smelled the scent of powder under his nose, and said in his ear: "Ruoqing, I met your master some time ago."
Gu Ruoqing's pale face was as bright as fire, and she said in a trembling voice: "Master? What did he say?"
Jia Heng lowered his head and feasted on the beauty's front. Feeling the fragrance of the powder coming to his face, his voice was slightly unclear and he said, "She told me something."
Gu Ruoqing's slender and beautiful body couldn't help but tremble slightly, her hands caressed Jia Heng's shoulders, her jade-white neck was like a swan, and she hummed softly.
While Jia Heng was speaking, he gently lifted up the beauty's dress.
Gu Ruoqing hummed softly, and the golden hairpin tassels between the lush temples swayed gently.
Immediately, it was like walking on the clouds, one foot high, one foot shallow, and the face of Xiangpei Yuzhuan was rose red.
I don't know how long he had been obsessed with her, but Jia Heng suddenly hugged Gu Ruoqing's plump and soft body, his eyes were like dew as he looked at the beautiful face with sweat on the temples, and he felt a bit of affection in his heart.
Jia Heng paused for a moment, looked at the beauty, and said warmly: "Ruoqing, it's getting late, let's go back together."
Gu Ruoqing's beautiful eyebrows were as curved as black daisy. She snorted, and her face, which was as white as snow, turned red with embarrassment.
Jia Heng and Gu Ruoqing cuddled together for a while longer. Jia Heng did not linger any longer. He stood up and left the room. He stared at Chen Xiao and said, "Xiao Xiao."
"It's getting dark now." Chen Xiao glanced at the sky outside and said angrily.
