Emperor Yuanfeng was in a bad mood. He had finally eased the relationship between him and Xiao Heng, the grandfather and grandson, but Shen Hai colluded with the Japanese pirates to cause these things. If Pang Qingping couldn't handle it, I'm afraid that Jiangsu, Zhejiang and the coastal areas would never have peace! He also knew in his heart that letting Xiao Heng go to war was a good thing.
Young people are tempered. The more they experience, the more outstanding they will be. War is like a whetstone. After being sharpened, it will become a sharp sword in the future.
As a grandfather, Emperor Yuanfeng's feelings for Xiao Heng were pure, and he truly only wished the best for him.
So some people with ulterior motives in the court wrote to the emperor, saying that the crown prince was abusing power and playing with the army, but Emperor Yuanfeng just ignored them! Throughout the ages, countless emperors were reluctant to give up their power, but Emperor Yuanfeng was different. Over the years, he had lost the people he cared about one by one, and he already knew what was the most important thing.
He went straight to the Queen Mother's palace.
Empress Dowager Tian was chanting in the Buddhist hall. When she came out of the small Buddhist hall and heard Emperor Yuanfeng coming, she changed her clothes and went out again.
Emperor Yuanfeng stood up and saluted. The Empress Dowager stopped him and said, "Your Majesty, have you eaten yet when you come here at this hour? If not, why don't you accompany me to eat some."
When she saw Emperor Yuanfeng shaking his head, she knew that he had not eaten yet, so she told Aunt Cui to serve him food. Then she looked at Emperor Yuanfeng and asked, "Is it about the incident in southern Fujian? I have heard about it."
Although it was openly said that it was the Japanese pirates who invaded the border, Empress Dowager Tian also knew the details of the Fujian gang. She frowned in disgust: "They are too greedy. You were too merciful at the beginning. Otherwise, you should have cut the grass and eradicated it!"
Empress Dowager Tian's beloved daughter was killed by Qi Yunxi and his gang. To Empress Dowager Tian, those evil people in the previous dynasty were all lunatics who would do anything to achieve their goals. They would do anything for the dream of revenge and restoration of their country.
These people have been dreaming of restoring their country all day long, and they are doing everything they can to achieve their goal. Now they have even let a wolf into the house. Such people would not feel satisfied even if their bones were crushed to ashes. They deserve to die.
Empress Dowager Tian did not hide anything. She raised her eyebrows coldly and reminded Emperor Yuanfeng: "It would have been fine if you didn't know before, but now that you know about it, you don't have to worry about your reputation being ruined. Just deal with it as it should be."
Is it true that the Holy Lord of the National Dynasty is really afraid of those corrupt and despicable people
Emperor Yuanfeng smiled bitterly.
But I was also happy at the same time.
Ever since the matter of Princess Jingming came to light, Queen Mother Tian has always stood on his side and protected him very much, and this time was no exception.
He nodded: "To be honest with you, mother, I have the same thought in my mind. However, there is still one thing I cannot decide."
Queen Mother Tian glanced at him and suddenly understood: "You mean, Ah Heng's marriage?"
Speaking of Xiao Heng's marriage, it was really an unexpected surprise. A few days ago, Emperor Yuanfeng came to see her and told her to wait until Su Yao came to the palace, and then give Su Yao a peony flower and ask Su Yao's opinion whether he was willing to be Xiao Heng's grandson's consort.
In fact, Empress Dowager Tian was not blind to the matter between the two. Xiao Heng had even directly admitted it. How could she not know that Xiao Heng and Su Yao liked each other
But liking each other is one thing, but in the political arena, what people consider more is never whether they like each other or not, but whether their interests are consistent, and whether they have to make choices. Therefore, Empress Dowager Tian once thought that Emperor Yuanfeng would probably not help Xiao Heng choose Su Yao.
After all, not only was Su Yao's temper too straightforward, she was not the kind of lady from a noble family in the general sense. She was unique and almost different from all the other ladies.
The most important thing is that Su Yao is very difficult to tame and does whatever he wants.
But what they didn't expect was that Emperor Yuanfeng was really willing to help these two people get together.
Empress Dowager Tian was very happy. Seeing Emperor Yuanfeng like this, she knew that the problem probably lay here.
Emperor Yuanfeng nodded, "Ah Heng is old enough, and the court is urging me to choose a grandson's wife for him. Besides, it is true that how can the Crown Prince's Palace not have many children? So I want Ah Heng to get married first, but Ah Heng is very determined to go to Zhejiang, which makes me hesitate."
Queen Mother Tian suddenly burst out laughing.
Emperor Yuanfeng looked at her in confusion.
Empress Dowager Tian chuckled and shook her head: "The emperor is really confused by the situation. Why is it so difficult to decide? Ah Heng went to Yunnan before. What kind of relationship could there be between the two of them at that time? There was no relationship at all, but didn't Su Yao go there too? This time, why can't Su Yao go with good reason? Let them get married first, and then go, what's wrong with that?"
In Zhejiang, it will take some time for Pang Qingping to react. Isn't this time enough for Xiao Heng and Su Yao to get married
After they get married, Xiao Heng will go to Zhejiang first, and after a while, Su Yao will also go there. There is nothing to say about it.
Even if there are censors who talk nonsense, just treat it as nonsense.
Empress Dowager Tian's words awakened the dreamer.
Emperor Yuanfeng was immediately delighted: "Mother, you really made a prompt decision! Yes, what you said is right! In this case, I will ask for your help at the palace banquet tomorrow."
Although the overall situation has been decided, we still need to work hard on the surface.
Queen Mother Tian agreed with a smile.
The next day, the Su family had already made preparations, and Su Rong personally sent Su Yao into the palace.
Su Yao saw that he didn't look very good, with a thick dark circle under his eyes, so he whispered: "Brother, sister-in-law still doesn't want to come back?"
The matter of the Wang family had actually come to an end. With Master Wang's confession, the Wang family was safe. Emperor Yuanfeng only issued an edict to reprimand the Wang family and then sentenced Master Wang to beheading, but did not touch other members of the Wang family.
Master Wang Wu took the initiative to sort out household affairs, and together with Master Wang Da, he propped up the family's livelihood.
But Wang Yuerong never returned to the Su family.
In fact, Mrs. Su’s feelings towards Wang Yuerong are also very complicated.
On the one hand, there is no doubt that Old Lady Su likes Wang Yuerong. After being together for such a long time, it is impossible that she has no feelings for him. On the other hand, Old Lady Su thinks that the eldest master of the Wang family is really abominable for being so cruel to his son-in-law. Even though she knows about Wang Yuerong's relationship with her, she can't help but feel a little worried, fearing that Wang Yuerong will feel resentful towards Su Rong in the future.
Now Su Rong is caught in the middle, and this must be the most difficult thing to do.
Su Rong smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes. He sighed and said, "I have figured it out. I have asked to go to Zhejiang."
Su Yao was a little surprised. She knew that something happened along the coast, but she didn't expect that Su Rong had already thought about going there.
But if you go at this time...
