The burning of the Eldest Prince's Mansion caused trouble to the court. The Eldest Prince woke up and went into the palace overnight to shoulder the responsibility for the Lin family. Emperor Dongming reprimanded him and let him go.
The eldest prince went to Concubine Lin's place again, but he didn't hide anything from Concubine Lin, his tone was a bit mocking, and he was somewhat displeased with Concubine Lin.
Concubine Lin was in a fit of anger for a moment, so she didn't notice, "Bitch, bitch!"
Concubine Lin kept cursing, the eldest prince sat on the chair and rubbed his head, feeling agitated for a while, "If there is nothing wrong, I will step back first."
"Wait." Only then did Concubine Lin realize that something was wrong with the eldest prince, "Are you blaming my concubine for forcing you to marry Lin Xu?"
The eldest prince didn't even raise his head, "Mother and concubine are always thinking of my son and minister, how dare my son and minister blame mother and concubine?"
Hearing the Eldest Prince's alienated tone, Concubine Lin sighed helplessly, watched the Eldest Prince leave, and rubbed the center of her brows.
Lian Qiao glanced at Concubine Lin, "Your Majesty, His Highness should not only be angry about Miss Lin."
Lin Bin raised her eyes, "Then what else?"
"Your Majesty, it was all because of General Huang's return to the capital that His Highness finally lifted the confinement. If General Huang leaves Beijing at this time, His Highness will be in an embarrassing situation again."
Forsythia saw clearly at the banquet that the eldest prince gave Concubine Lin winks many times, but it was a pity that Concubine Lin became anxious when she heard that the third prince had disappeared. How could she see the winks from the eldest prince.
The Eldest Prince had a gloomy face all night, and something happened to the Eldest Prince's mansion. Judging by the Eldest Prince's expression, he was probably extremely angry, and he had nowhere to vent his anger.
However, Pin Lin didn't know anything about it.
"So what if you go, but you can come back in a few months. If you go to Ye'er, can you come back? Ye'er is also his younger brother. Is the relationship after so many years not as important as a general Huang?" Concubine Lin disagreed. Yue Road.
Lianqiao sighed, everyone could see that the right-hand man was only provoking General Huang, so he kept pursuing him. General Huang may be a beast on the battlefield, brave and good at fighting.
But now that he is off the battlefield and in the officialdom, where is the right minister's opponent? The right minister never does useless work. As expected, a few words will make General Huang go to Liangzhou willingly.
"My lady, the barbarians are very cunning. If General Huang goes well, he may be able to return in a year or so. If not, it may be three to five years, or even ten or eight years. The first emperor did not get cheap after several battles. "
Lian Qiao could understand the eldest prince's depression, it was Lin Concubine who personally extinguished the eldest prince's hope in front of everyone.
"If Marquis Zhao returns, His Highness will most likely be demoted."
Lianqiao told about the future situation of the eldest prince, but she still dare not mention some things. In Lianqiao's heart, only when the eldest prince is strong can the third prince be free from worries. If the eldest prince loses, Lianqiao dare not imagine the consequences.
After Lianqiao mentioned this, Lin Bing came back to her senses. She was just confused at the time, but the right minister insisted on going.
"Then what if the right minister goes away?" Lin Pin still couldn't believe that this was a game, what if Emperor Dong Ming agreed to the right minister's invitation
"Your Majesty, the right minister has mentioned it so many times. You can see that the emperor said a word. Even if the emperor agrees, if the right minister wants military power, the emperor will never give it to the right minister. It's just that the person who will go at that time will not be General Huang. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have chosen to tell the matter at that time, after General Huang volunteered, Prime Minister Right didn’t refute it at all.”
Afterwards, Lian Qiao analyzed it carefully, and found that Prime Minister Right simply swore that she would not go, that's why she said those words, and the emperor's attitude made her even more puzzled.
But the only thing that is certain is that the Prime Minister is against the First Prince, and sent General Huang, whom the First Prince had finally managed to win over, away at once, leaving the First Prince alone and helpless.
Lin Bin's face turned pale when she heard the words, as if she had unknowingly ruined the eldest prince's good deed.
"Ke Ye'er..."
"Your Majesty, the Third Highness will benefit more only if the First Highness is strong. If the First Highness is abandoned, how will the Third Highness be better?"
Forsythia had served Concubine Lin for so many years, and sometimes she really felt sad for the eldest prince, she finally climbed up, and was slapped back into the abyss by Concubine Lin, her biological mother.
Concubine Lin didn't understand such a simple truth, and Lian Qiao even wondered if there was a riot in Liangzhou.
Concubine Lin stopped talking now, and stood walking up and down the room non-stop, "Hey! How wonderful this is."
Just now, from the attitude of the eldest prince, Lin Bin could sense the alienation and resentment of the eldest prince towards her. It turned out that it was because of this matter, but she had no choice but to act.
"Niang Niang, we can't offend Prime Minister Right now. If Prime Minister Right looks at us, none of us will be able to escape."
Forsythia had repeatedly told Concubine Lin not to offend the Prime Minister, but Concubine Lin forgot about it when she turned her head, and it was all because of the crimes committed by the third prince.
If she had married Concubine Xiao back then, she wouldn’t have come to where she is today. Lian Qiao sighed helplessly. If this matter was really done by the right minister, the road the eldest prince would have to take in the future would be too bumpy. The First Prince was in pain and couldn't tell.
And Concubine Lin never felt that she was wrong, so shouldn't she save the third prince
Concubine Lin was a little impatient, "Perhaps you are thinking too much, but it's just a coincidence, so there's no need to say any more."
Lianqiao smiled wryly, "Yes, this servant knows."
Prime Minister
"Miss, as soon as Miss Lin woke up, she cried and wanted to see the First Prince. She was ordered by Master Lin to have her leg broken, and she will never come out again in this life."
Hong Xiu shrank his neck, "Master Lin is really cruel."
Concubine Xiao chuckled, "If Lin Xu is not cruel, if Lin Xu goes out to harm the Lin family, sooner or later the Lin family will be buried in her hands alone."
This is also a helpless move for Lin Fei, at least compared to ordinary families, it is much better to send them to the family temple to spend the rest of their lives, or to cruelly declare that they have some serious illness and die a few months later.
"That's true." Hongxiu nodded, and suddenly covered her mouth with a smile, "The fire in the First Prince's Mansion was not small, the First Prince fainted out of anger."
Xiao Concubine smiled and said nothing, I'm afraid the eldest prince is not fainted by anger, but the child in Xiao Ying's stomach.
At this time, Qing Yu entered the door, "Miss, Aunt Ying died an hour ago."
Concubine Xiao raised her eyebrows, but it was expected, without the piece of meat in her stomach, Xiao Ying would only pose a threat to the First Prince, and the First Prince's heart was too cruel.
Xiao Concubine hummed lightly, but then said to Qingyu, "Miss, I found that there are many people staring at the First Prince's Mansion, and there are a few in Lin's Mansion. They all seem to be the same group."
Concubine Xiao frowned upon hearing this, "How long have you been staring?"
"From yesterday to today."
Concubine Xiao lowered her eyes and pondered. This period of time happened to be the day when Huang Ziying entered Beijing. Could it be that other than her, someone else was staring at Lin Xu
"Go and investigate, don't startle the snake." Xiao Mi ordered in a low voice.
"yes!"
There is another thing that Xiao Yu can't figure out, why the right minister and the emperor made a decision to support General Huang with 40,000 troops, but the right minister did so, Xiao Yu believes that there must be a reason for the right minister.
In this way, the First Prince was completely emptied.
However, Xiao Concubine did not intend to let the eldest prince go, "The eldest prince is so unlucky, it is difficult to marry a wife one after another, Miss Zhao converted to Buddhism, Miss Lin was broken, and the only concubine also died suddenly for no reason, I doubt it." Is it because the eldest prince is restraining his wife?"
Qing Yu understood, and nodded to Xiao Concubine.
Within a while, the news that the eldest prince had robbed his wife spread out.
Huang Ziying's face changed slightly after hearing this, "It's all nonsense!"
"Ziying, will you stay in the capital this time, or go to the barbarians together as your father?"
"Naturally stay in the capital." Huang Ziying blurted out, showing the shyness of a little girl. Now that the eldest prince is in a downturn, Huang Ziying should stay in the capital to accompany the eldest prince to tide over the difficulties.
Seeing Huang Ziying's appearance, General Huang frowned slightly, but he still didn't say anything.
That night, General Huang was looking through military books in his room when a dart slammed into a pillar with a bang.
General Huang stood up with a bang, went out to check, and found the dart on the pillar when he looked back.
General Huang pulled out the dart, opened the letter, his expression changed three points, and he held the letter tightly for a long time without saying a word.
In the early morning of the next day, General Huang seldom had breakfast with Huang Ziying. Huang Ziying was somewhat absent-minded. General Huang guessed that it was probably because of the rumors outside the residence about the eldest prince's wife restraint.
"Ziying, since my father hasn't left Beijing yet, and I don't know how long I will be going this time, my father is really worried about leaving you alone in the capital. Why don't you send a post to the eldest prince, and what are your father's words?" In other words, I must tell the First Prince to take good care of you, so that you can be a father without any worries."
Huang Ziying blushed when she heard the words, "Yes, my daughter will send someone to find the eldest prince."
Emperor Dong Ming gave a deadline of three days, General Huang set aside one day, and the eldest prince came to Huang's mansion soon after receiving the letter.
"General Huang." The First Prince forced a smile.
"Excuse me for disturbing Your Highness. The last general will leave Beijing in the day after tomorrow. I can't let Ziying go, so I want to talk to Your Highness about something."
General Huang looked reluctant to part with Huang Ziying.
The eldest prince smiled, "Don't worry, general, this hall will definitely take good care of Miss Huang, and will never let Miss Huang suffer any grievances."
Huang Ziying lowered her head at the side, showing the coquettish attitude of a little girl, "Your Highness, Father, I'll go get some pastries."
"Go." General Huang nodded, then rubbed his shoulders, "Your Highness, the last general hasn't moved his body for a long time, and it's a little itchy. Your Highness might as well accompany the last general to learn from each other."
"Don't dare." The eldest prince said modestly, "This palace is no match for the general."
"Hey, what's the matter, let's finish the order." General Huang smiled, and said that he had already stepped onto the stage in the yard, posing.
Seeing that he could not evade, the eldest prince had no choice but to bite the bullet and step forward.
General Huang's moves seemed to be soft, but he pressed forward at every step. The eldest prince was always in a passive state. He was hit by General Huang's fist several times, and he avoided it every time. If he reacted slowly, he might be hit.
The eldest prince put away his joking mentality, and accompanied General Huang in the fight. General Huang changed his soft demeanor to become fierce, and he did not hesitate to make deadly moves.
Just when the eldest prince was distracted, General Huang hit the eldest prince on the chest with three points of force, and the eldest prince was caught off guard and fell off the ring.
"Hey! Your Highness be careful." A man quickly supported the eldest prince, but his hand was on the elder prince's wrist.
"Your Highness, are you okay?" General Huang hurriedly stepped off the stage and asked with concern.
The eldest prince came back to his senses and shook his head, "No problem, thank you General for your mercy."
General Huang patted the eldest prince on the shoulder, "It seems that His Highness is not in good spirits, maybe he didn't have a good rest, but the last general won by luck. It seems that His Highness's complexion is not very good, why don't you go back and rest first."
The Eldest Prince rubbed his chest, felt a pain and had no choice but to nod, "Then the Japanese Palace will visit the general again tomorrow."
General Huang nodded and sent the eldest prince out of the mansion before returning. Huang Ziying happened to come out, "Father, where is Your Highness?"
General Huang smiled, "His Royal Highness suddenly has something important to do, so he will go first, but we have already talked about it with His Highness, Ziying, go and help father pack his luggage."
Huang Ziying's eyes turned red, she nodded obediently, "Yes."
After Huang Ziying left, General Huang looked back at the man and said in a low voice, "How is it?"
"General, the eldest prince has indeed been poisoned, and there is no possibility of having any heirs in this life. The person who poisoned him is really insidious, and he will destroy people's heirs."
General Huang's eyes tightened when he heard the words, and he stared blankly at Huang Ziying's back not far away for a moment, "The water in this capital is too deep, and Ziying has a straightforward personality. She grew up in a military camp and never had the opportunity to touch these twists and turns. I'm worried about leaving Ziying alone in the capital."
"What the general said is very true. The young lady is just in love, and she can't extricate herself for a while." The man echoed.
General Huang nodded, "In this way, those rumors are not false. If a prince has no heirs, one can imagine what will happen in the future, and Ziying is just a tool used by the eldest prince. Ziying, I have to take it away .”
General Huang thought about it again, "Send me a letter to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion."
"Why didn't the general ask the emperor himself?"
General Huang snorted twice, "I have no intention of participating in the affairs of the imperial court. It is a helpless move to return to Beijing this time. It is not a bad thing if I can stay in Liangzhou for the rest of my life. I will enter this palace sooner or later, but I still have to go there first." Go to Xiangfu."
General Huang originally wanted to go to Beijing to seek development, and the border was too hard, but in just a few days, General Huang's thoughts were completely changed. The emperor, the right minister, and even the queen mother wanted the military power in his hands.
If he stays in the capital, he will not be able to hold the military power tightly at all, and sooner or later he will be calculated by one side. Once he loses the military power, General Huang will only have one word of death. After all, who can tolerate a general who has led soldiers for decades Shake the morale of the army.
The water in the capital is too deep, General Huang can't figure it out at all, even the eldest prince has been tricked and has nothing to say, he would rather suffer from being dumb, let alone himself.
The Prime Minister on the right smiled after hearing the news, "Tell General Huang that the barbarians are cunning and difficult to deal with. The imperial court has been fighting for many years without success. General Huang, please be more careful."
After General Huang got the message from the right prime minister, he yelled at the old fox behind his back. He was really cunning. This was to remind General Huang not to rush to fight, and to stay in Liangzhou peacefully.
However, General Huang admired Prime Minister Right from the bottom of his heart, and he was able to predict things like a god. Long before General Huang entered Beijing, Prime Minister Right sent a letter to General Huang and made suggestions, but General Huang was very dismissive at that time.
The right minister said that the emperor knew that he had grievances with him, so he sent the eldest prince to approach him in a deliberate way, confused Huang Ziying, and closed him in disguise.
Later, at the celebration banquet, Prime Minister Right gave the ladder, that is, the barbarian riot in Liangzhou. General Huang decided to take a gamble and agreed. Afterwards, Prime Minister Right guessed right. Not only did the Emperor readily agree, he also gave him 40,000 elite soldiers. .
And the Prime Minister on the right even gave the eldest prince a hard blow, which made General Huang completely restless and did not intend to stay in the capital.
Coupled with the dead end of the eldest prince, if he persists in his obsession, it will really be a dead end.
General Huang immediately entered the palace, chatted with Emperor Dongming for more than two hours, and when he left the palace gate, his back was wet with sweat.
"Let's go! We must leave the capital!" General Huang went back to the house without stopping to clean up. He abruptly changed the three days into two days, in the name of not wanting the people of Liangzhou to suffer, and Emperor Dongming readily approved it.
General Huang prepared the drug early in the morning, and let Huang Ziying sleep all the way to Liangzhou City. When Huang Ziying opened his eyes, it was more than a month later.
Emperor Dongming stood at the gate of the city and watched General Huang leave the city with his elite soldiers, his eyelids twitched, and he always had an ominous premonition.
Emperor Dongming was afraid that it would be insecure, so he and Prime Minister Right each added 20,000 elite soldiers, but now there is a feeling that meat buns beat dogs and never return.
"No, Master Xiang keeps his word." Emperor Dongming said in a low voice.
