Yang Tingjing pursed her lips and wanted to show an invisible smile. Nothing was said.
"But why do I feel that the two of them are always planning something." The emperor asked while knocking on the table.
"That may be father, you are too worried." Yang Tingjing said calmly.
The emperor narrowed his eyes when he looked at Yang Tingjing, but Yang Tingjing still kept his head down. Neither humble nor overbearing.
"Lao Qi, you are my son, you should know what I'm thinking in my heart." The emperor's tone was not the same as before, but very strict, as if piercing his heart directly. The majesty, all go at this moment. on him alone. And she is still so calm. Maybe he has made a few moves in his heart, but it still doesn't show on the surface.
"Father, Erchen's concubine is pregnant recently. Erchen wants to spend more time with her at home. Besides, Erchen has no ability at all, so how can he fight against others?" Yang Tingjing evaded.
"Don't underestimate yourself. In this way, I will hand over the military talisman to you. In the future, you can dispatch troops at any time." The emperor looked at him with frowns as he said this. I was also very helpless in my heart, and followed me to ridicule myself for giving up the military uniform to my son to suppress another son.
"Father, you can rest assured that you are born from the same root, so why rush to meet each other. My son will surely live up to your high expectations." Yang Tingjing knew that if he still refused to follow up like this, the emperor might not be so easy Let him go. In this muddy water, why would he have to stick to the mud!
"I hope so, you step back first." The emperor seemed to breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
"My son, leave!" Yang Tingjing walked out of the palace with a soldier talisman in his hand.
At this time, Concubine Hua Gui finally learned the news of her son's disappearance, and was very anxious. He kept walking up and down in her palace, circling in circles.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, maybe, maybe..." Concubine Hua's personal maid comforted Concubine Hua.
"Bold, son of my imperial concubine, don't talk nonsense." Concubine Hua was in a hurry right now, she didn't listen to anyone, and slapped the close servant girl on the face. Five long notes immediately emerged.
I am usually used to being favored by Concubine Hua. Now Concubine Hua Gui gave him a backhand slap and he didn't dare to say anything. As a slave, that's how it is. Concubine Hua Gui was in a good mood, so she rewarded him with a few benefits, and when she was in a bad mood, she used him as a punching bag. The servant sat on the ground, stroking his face with the other hand. There were a few sobs, but they didn't dare to make a sound.
"It's an eyesore when I see you, get off!" Concubine Hua Gui was furious, but she also knew that the servant beside me was just to comfort herself. Then he stopped attacking her.
The next day Concubine Hua Gui received a letter, which said that Concubine Hua Gui personally signed it. Concubine Hua Gui opened it and saw that it was written in black and white:
You killed my mother and concubine, and now I will take your son's life as compensation, so that you can taste what it is like to lose a loved one.
Concubine Hua's face was completely white with anger, she was holding the note in her hand and kneaded it into a ball. It was almost stuck in the crevice before, and it was almost scratched if I grabbed it desperately.
"It must be him, Third Prince." Concubine Hua's face darkened.
Concubine Hua Gui immediately guessed that it was the Third Prince, Concubine Hua Gui was anxious and angry, the intrigue in the harem was not clear, but now if she used this note to find the emperor. He definitely didn't gain any advantage, but he might be beaten up instead.
At this moment, Concubine Hua knew clearly that for the harem. The son is their biggest bargaining chip, but it is impossible for him to have more chips. What's more, no matter how you say, the son is the heart and soul of the mother, even if everything is dragged away, it doesn't matter. He still has to protect his son.
Concubine Hua sent a maid to look for the Third Prince. The maid came to the temple where the Third Prince was being repaired. After finally seeing the Third Prince, she hurriedly said: "Third Prince, the imperial concubine is here to invite you."
"Hmph, what's good about her? This king has nothing to say to her." The third prince said coldly.
No matter what the servant girl said, the Third Prince would not leave, the maid knew that if she could not invite the Third Prince, she would have no choice but to die, so the maid pleaded: "Third Prince, I beg you, go see the imperial concubine! The imperial concubine really has something to tell you."
The palace maid cried with pear blossoms and rain. Tears flowed down from the eye sockets unstoppably, as big as raindrops.
"It's so loud from crying, lead the way, I want to see what tricks she's up to." The third prince frowned and said impatiently.
Soon the Third Prince entered the palace and arrived at Concubine Hua Gui's bedroom. Concubine Hua Gui had been waiting for a long time. The Third Prince looked at Concubine Hua Gui who was looking anxious, hugged her shoulders and sneered, "Concubine Hua Gui is looking for this king, what is the matter?"
"Third Prince, we Ming people don't speak dark words. The death of Jade Concubine really has nothing to do with me. Please don't involve other people." The way Concubine Hua spoke seemed to be pleading.
"Your Majesty's words are better than her singing. What kind of people don't speak in secret, how many tricks have you done behind your back? Now tell me that people don't speak in secret. Don't you think it's a bit ridiculous?" A look of disbelief.
"The death of Concubine Yu was an accident. This matter has nothing to do with this palace. Concubine Yu suffered a serious illness that year, and the imperial doctor couldn't cure it. The emperor also knows why the third prince insists on insisting on this matter." The palace refuses to let it go." Concubine Hua felt exhausted and said with a sigh.
"Accident? Yes, the father did tell the king that the mother and concubine died of illness, but you think the king is a three-year-old child? Do you think the king is an idiot?" The third prince laughed, his eyes flickering. Feeling cold, he approached Concubine Hua step by step, and said with a smile: "How about, ma'am, let's play a game."
"What game?" Concubine Hua Guifei had a bad feeling.
"Concubine Hua Gui, please choose between the father and the sixth younger brother." The third prince said lightly, "One of the father and the sixth brother must die. This is the price! It's time to pay off the debt."
When the third prince also said this, it seemed somewhat reasonable, as if what he was discussing was not the emperor who was ninety-five years old, but an ant in the ground.
"Shut up, you dare to say such a rebellious thing." Concubine Hua Gui was terrified in her heart, as if the person she saw in front of her was like a blood demon god from hell. who is listening.
"How many times do I have to say that Yubi's death has nothing to do with me." Concubine Hua was a little annoyed, "If Yubi knows that you are now..."
"Don't mention this king's mother and concubine to this king! You are not worthy!" The third prince roared, he stared at Hua Guifei for a long time, and then said: "Imperial Concubine, think about it, who do you want to choose, father and sixth brother? .”
