Yan Boyi looked at the information sent by his subordinates with anxiety. Now his reputation among the people is extremely poor, and he has offended some aristocratic families, not to mention the Hou family and the clan that is close to the Hou family.
He originally only suspected that Hou shi passed the news outside the mansion, so she was temporarily placed under house arrest, but he did not expect that Hou shi would take the bottom line and cause troubles all over the city. With Hou's power in the palace alone, she couldn't achieve this step at all, so who was secretly supporting her
Is it the emperor's old man or... Yan Boyi couldn't help wrinkling his brows when he thought of Yan Jinqiu. Since he was a child, he had looked down on Yan Jinqiu's gentle appearance and sinister heart, but now he has no choice but to admire this man. , can do the trick.
Hou's!
He closed the document in his hand with a sullen face, and suppressed the anger in his heart: "Send someone to send a generous gift to the Hou family's mansion, and I will personally go to the palace to pick up the princess and return to the mansion."
The servants didn't dare to say anything when they saw the look on the prince's face, and hurriedly set up a car to escort the prince into the palace.
As an adult royal family, Yan Boyi couldn't go directly to Concubine Shu's palace, so he had to meet the emperor. But unfortunately, after he entered the palace, in addition to the emperor, there were King Xu, King Ning and Yan Jinqiu in the palace. .
Several royal princes saw Yan Boyi coming in, and although there was a little disapproval on their faces, but because of their affection, they did not speak before Yan Boyi was seated.
"Since you are all here today, I can also ask you what you are thinking," Qilong looked at Yan Boyi with a displeased face, "Are you dissatisfied with the Hou family or with me?"
This marriage was bestowed by him. Isn't the way Prince Sheng treated the Hou family a provocation to him
"Your Majesty, my nephew doesn't mean this, I think there must be some misunderstanding," Yan Boyi had to move his butt up again. He walked to the hall and knelt down, and said earnestly, "Please give my nephew a chance. The nephew will definitely treat her well." Yan Boyi didn't plan to explain too much, the matter has gotten to the point where no one cares about the truth of the matter. For ordinary people, their favorite story is the story of a ruthless man who abandoned his wife, and the royal family will only consider the impact of this matter. As for who is right and who is wrong, it is not that important at all.
Yan Jinqiu raised his eyebrows, looking at the upright Yan Boyi in the center of the hall, his brows moved slightly, it is more interesting for such a righteous and rigorous person to make trouble about abusing his wife.
"What's the point of you telling me this now?" Emperor Qilong stood on the hall with a blank face, and said in a tone of hatred for iron, "Yesterday, after Princess Shengjun entered the palace, she begged with Concubine Shu, hoping to join forces with you. You and Li. When you said this, many concubines in the palace heard it, how do you ask Zhen to turn around for you?"
Yan Boyi's complexion changed slightly, and the Hou family actually said such words, but why didn't anyone hear what happened yesterday? Thinking of this, his mood changed greatly, because someone deliberately stopped the news.
He raised his head subconsciously, turned his head to look at Yan Jinqiu, who was sitting quietly in the corner, but only saw the calm and indifferent look of the other party.
"I'm talking about your business, what do you think Ziling is doing?" Emperor Qilong said with a cold face, "When things are like this, the people of the whole capital are waiting to see the result, do you want me to forcibly kill Princess Shengjun escort you back?"
Yan Boyi knew that he had been tricked this time, and it was the woman beside him who was plotting against him, but at this time he could only knock down his teeth and swallow his blood alive, he suppressed the anger in his heart, and knelt down in front of Emperor Qilong: "Please, Your Majesty, help me. nephew."
Emperor Qilong looked at Yan Boyi who was kneeling obediently in front of him, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes, and after a while after pondering, he said, "I don't want to interfere in this matter, you go and persuade Hou Shi, how this matter turns out is entirely up to her heart. ." Speaking of this, his face suddenly changed, "But no matter what happens in the end, you can't anger the Hou family for this."
This marriage was bestowed by him, but he didn't think that in the end, those aristocratic families would even complain about him.
Yan Boyi pinched the palm of his hand with his index finger before slowly opening his mouth and said, "My nephew has written it down."
Sitting next to him, King Ning, who was a little fat, suddenly said, "If I knew today, why would my nephew be in the first place? If this matter goes out, our royal family will lose face."
Yan Boyi was silent.
King Xu glanced at King Ning, who fell into the pit, and at King Xian, who was silent. He thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, after all, this is a matter between their husband and wife. It is not easy for us to interfere, so we should retire first."
King Ning glared at King Xu, this old bastard, he didn't forget to dig a hole for him at such a time, so immoral!
At this moment, Yan Jinqiu said unhurriedly, "Your Majesty, your nephew thinks that your original intention of giving the marriage is good, but it's just a matter of marriage, no one can tell the result, maybe it's because the two of them are not good enough. would have resulted in today’s results.”
"You're right, aren't you and your concubine getting along well?" Emperor Qilong seemed to find an excuse for himself, then waved his hand, "You all step back, I don't plan to intervene in this matter. You young It is up to you to decide your own relationship.”
The group exited the main hall, Yan Jinqiu smiled and looked at Yan Boyi with a dark complexion: "Cousin, why don't my brother accompany you to go to Concubine Shu's palace?"
It is not suitable for Yan Boyi to go to Concubine Shu's palace alone, but it is more appropriate for them to go together than alone.
"I don't dare to bother my cousin, thank you very much," Yan Boyi gave Yan Jinqiu an indifferent look, "It's better not to let outsiders intervene in some matters."
Yan Jinqiu smiled when he heard the words, noncommittal.
King Ning and King Xu walked out of the palace together. King Ning glanced at King Xu: "I can't believe that you and King Xian are quite close."
Xu Wang's face was as usual: "It is the style of our elders to care about the younger generation. What doubts do you have, Wang Xu?"
"Heh," King Ning snorted coldly, waiting for the two of them to walk forward for a while, "Then why don't you care so much about King Shengjun."
King Xu stopped and squinted at King Ning: "It's not normal for an elder to be biased?"
King Ning: "..."
Ha ha.
In the end, Yan Boyi went to Concubine Shu's palace in the name of seeing his elders, but unfortunately the Hou family didn't want to see him at all, only that he was heartbroken and did not want to see him again.
"Your Majesty, the master said, please be more cherished, she doesn't want to go back to the sad place of the Prince's Mansion," the maid next to Hou Shi gave the expressionless Yan Boyi a trembling look, and continued, "Please, Lord of the County, make it happen. "
"Complete?" Yan Boyi glanced in the direction of the inner hall with frosty eyes, "I hope she will not regret one day in the future."
The little girl lowered her head and dared not speak.
Yan Boyi turned around and went out the door, showing no nostalgia. As soon as he walked out of the gate of Concubine Shu's palace, he saw a woman in full costume walking towards this side with a group of maids and eunuchs.
He squinted slightly, this is Fahrenheit? Taking a half step back, he turned his head slightly to the side to avoid suspicion.
Hua Xiwan also saw Yan Boyi, who was dressed in a black brocade robe and looked majestic. From the surface, no one could guess that he was an ambitious man.
Yan Boyi bowed to her, and she returned a Wanfu gift. Although the two seemed to pass by each other, they were actually separated by at least three steps.
When he was five or six paces away, Yan Boyi suddenly remembered the words of a doorman.
If it wasn't for the ugly appearance of the young lady of the Marquis of Yi'an, it would be an excellent choice for you if you asked to marry her.
How did he answer then
It seems that he doesn't have to aggrieve himself for the rest of his life in exchange for a Yue family who doesn't know what it is.
As soon as his footsteps stopped, Yan Boyi looked back at the end of the road, only to see the woman in the palace dress with lotus flowers step by step, and stepped on the steps in front of Concubine Shu's palace like a star.
Suddenly the other party turned his head, and he didn't seem to expect him to turn his head too. After a moment of stunned, he returned a shallow polite smile, and then quickly entered the gate of Concubine Shu's palace.
Hua, Rong also.
Yan Boyi's eyes dimmed as he walked slowly down the long palace road.
Hou Shi was determined to plot against Yan Boyi, and he took the top spot of public opinion. Yan Boyi had to silently suffer this secret loss and agreed with Hou Shi and Li.
In order to save some face, he generously sent back all the dowry of the Hou family, and also gave some extra gifts. It's a pity that these actions are just a cover up in the eyes of others.
Hua Xiwan shook her head. If it was the era in which she lived in her previous life, I'm afraid Hou's calculation would not be so easy to succeed. Because at that time there was a kind of navy that could say white as black, and black as white. Like Yan Boyi and Hou Shi, they could fight for about 300 rounds, and they might not be able to decide the winner.
Two days later, Emperor Qilong personally issued a decree to allow Hou Shi and Yan Boyi to reconcile, and Hou Shi went to a Taoist temple on the outskirts of Beijing to pray for blessings.
This matter seems to have come to an end, but there are still many people in private who feel that it must have been known to Hou that the King of Shengjun and the Crown Princess had an unclear relationship in the past. After he was lucky enough to escape, he would rather enter the Taoist temple and reconcile with the King of Shengjun.
So the question is, is the grandson who is being raised by the emperor himself really the grandson of the emperor
The common people have great brains, but not all common people have strict mouths. All the rumors, no matter how low-key, have the power of rumors.
I don't know what the emperor thought after knowing these rumors.
"Princess, two days ago we met Prince Sheng outside Concubine Shu's Empress Palace. Will he guess that you are supporting Princess Princess... Hou Shi Heli?" Hongying heard the rumors outside and remembered the previous two days. I couldn't help but worry about things, what if my master was hated by King Shengjun
"Now that we and the Prince Shengjun's mansion have been torn apart, it doesn't matter whether he knows or doesn't know," Hua Xiwan shook her head, "It's like we all know that the last assassination incident was related to Prince Shengjun, but there is no evidence. So even if Prince Sheng suspects something is wrong, he can only eat this secret loss."
Hongying suddenly said: "You mean, this matter..."
Hua Xiwan glanced at Hongying, Hongying immediately closed her mouth, and then said with a smile: "It can be seen that the way of heaven is good for reincarnation."
She said that the more she thought about it, the more wrong it was. It turned out that there was something strange behind it, but I didn't know if the prince was doing this to vent his anger for the princess, or to suppress the prince of Shengjun
Maybe both
Hongying smiled and looked at Hua Xiwan with a ruddy face, no matter what, those who calculated their masters, just get retribution.
