With a sense of anxiety, Tong went to the palace. It was still a bit cold in February. After getting out of the carriage, Tong shuddered, and involuntarily gathered his clothes.
Meilan was waiting in the second hospital, and she smiled when she saw Tong Shifu: "The princess specially asked the slave and maid to wait for his wife here."
Although Mei Lan is a maid, Tong is also polite to her.
When he saw Yuxi, the Tong family was still a little trembling. She was afraid that her husband had committed some crime, so the princess asked her to come over and ask about the crime this time.
How could Yuxi not see Tong's uneasiness, and smiled and said, "What's the matter? I don't know that I thought I was a cannibal tiger?" In Yuxi's impression, Tong was a very pleasant woman. .
Tong's thoughts weighed it down in his heart, and he asked, so as not to feel uncomfortable in his heart: "Wang Hao, I don't know what happened to my family?"
Yuxi chuckled. No wonder Tong was so trembling. He thought that Cui Mo had committed something: "General Cui was fine and didn't make any mistakes. Moreover, even if General Cui committed the crime, it would be the supervision department and the prison secretary. Disposal."
At this moment, Tong Fang brought tea and snacks. Tong Fang put down the tea and said with a smile: "Sister, the princess is a little bored, I want to find someone to talk to!"
Tong's sigh of relief, it wasn't just that his family had committed the crime: "Wang Hao forgive me. Recently, because of Yu Cong's affairs, people have been panicked. Let..." At this point, Tong's was shocked to realize that he had said the wrong thing. .
Yuxi didn't care, and said, "You don't need to be restrained."
Tong tentatively asked: "Wang Hao, I don’t know what the General Yu committed?" There are many rumors outside, mainly saying that Yu Cong didn’t commit any crime at all because Yuxi was retaliating, but her son was Yu Cong’s colleague yesterday. Mutiny. She couldn't measure which one was true.
Yuxi narrowed a smile and said, "Collaborating with the enemy, intending to make a mutiny, and sheltering the important offender." After a pause, Yuxi said, "The evidence is conclusive, and he cannot tolerate denial."
After hearing this, Tong was so frightened that her hands were trembling. After a long time, she said: "Wang Hao, the wife of the minister said frankly, Yu Cong's loyalty to the prince cannot collude with the enemy, let alone make a mutiny." She could not speak insincerely. .
Yuxi feels that Tong and Cui Mo are really married, and they defend Yu Cong in exactly the same way: "General Cui said the same thing, saying that someone must have framed Yu Cong. Yu Cong screamed that I had framed Yu Cong. He also said he wanted the prince to avenge him Zhaoxue."
Tong really thinks that Yu Cong is a pig's brain, and it is okay to say that someone has planted him and framed him, but if the princess has planted him and framed him, wouldn't it be death? Fortunately, the husband even helped him intercede, so he was blinded by his husband's painstaking efforts: "Wang Hao, Yu Cong can't drink. Once he drinks, he keeps his mouth open." The problem is that Yu Cong also likes to drink very much.
Yuxi thought it was quite interesting. Even the Tong family knew Yu Cong's weakness, but he didn't even notice it. Yuxi smiled and said: "The Liu family took Yu Cong's handbook and passed the checkpoint in Yongcheng and transported 200,000 shi of grain. The 200,000 shi of grain was transported to the capital in small quantities."
Tong opened his mouth and asked after a while: "What about the intentional mutiny?" The so-called intentional mutiny meant that it was unsuccessful.
Yuxi said lightly: "Yu Cong wanted to join Fang Xing to create a mutiny in Jiangnan, but Fang Xing refused." As for the process, there is no need to say.
Tong quickly reacted: "This is what Fang Xing said?"
Yuxi said, "I still have a testimony written by Fang Xing. It is for this reason that Yu Cong was put under house arrest." Who knows what he is going crazy without under house arrest.
Tong's complexion changed again and again: "Wang Hao, is the chief culprit in Yu Cong's shelter from the Liu family?"
Yuxi nodded and said, "It's Liu Yi's brother." Yu Cong wanted to make a mutiny, and this Liu Erye contributed a lot. It's a pity that Liu Erye's ability to stir up trouble is good, and he agitated Yu Cong to make a mutiny, but other talents were lacking.
Hearing these words, the Tong family couldn't help saying: "It's really retribution! If he lives with Xiang's wife in a down-to-earth manner, where is the disaster today." The Tong family just interceded for Yu Cong because of Cui Mo. In fact, because of Yu Cong's abandonment of his wife, the Tong family, Chang family and others dislike him extremely. They have followed their husbands from hard times, and Yu Cong's behavior is tantamount to arousing their sensitive nerves.
Yuxi said indifferently: "He didn't think it was retribution, only that I was retaliating against him." She admitted that she did have the intention to get rid of Yu Cong, but the flies did not bite the seamless egg, if Yu Cong stood upright, she thought. There will be no chance to start.
Tong said: "Wang Hao, don't care about him, he is fascinated by the vixen." After a pause, Tong said carefully: "Wang Hao, my family definitely doesn't know the truth, so he will unite others to give Yu Cong. Please. I beg the princess to look around him for the sake of his ignorance!" Don't involve your husband because of this inconsistency.
Yuxi smiled and said, "The ignorant is not guilty, and I won't blame General Cui." If you really want to blame it, you won't be able to summon Tong. Of course, Yuxi specially invited Tong to come over for a purpose. She hoped to use Tong's mouth to let Cui Mo stop intervening in this matter. Cui Mo is a man of affection, she is really not sure whether Cui Mo will do anything to save Yu Cong. He didn't want to make Yun Qing embarrassed, so he had to choke this matter to death in the bud.
After hearing this, Tong made up his mind not to allow her husband to touch his hands, but don't implicate their family.
Seeing that the two had finished talking about business, Tong Fang smiled and interjected: "Sister, didn't you say that the spiced beans I gave you were delicious last time? It just so happens that you can ask the princess and ask the recipe to go back to the house and let the cook do it. Let’s eat.” Tong Fang knew that Yuxi left her to adjust the atmosphere, otherwise she would not dare to interject.
Yuxi smiled and said, "I didn't expect our tastes to be the same. I also like to eat these spiced beans." Yun Qing saw that Yuxi and the children both like to eat these delicate pastries, and specially sent someone to find someone who is good at making pastries in Jiangnan. The master enters the house.
Tong's thoughts went away and revealed his nature. He smiled and said: "These spiced beans are really fragrant as I eat them, and I can't stop talking as soon as I eat them. I have long wanted to ask the princess for this recipe, but I didn't find it. Chance."
Yuxi laughed: "It's just a recipe for snacks. I want Aunt Tong to say it directly. But you have to prepare carefully. You may not be able to make this flavor if you have a recipe."
Tong naturally understands what Yuxi said, which is the same as cooking. With the same ingredients, the taste of the dishes made by different people will be different: "It is not delicious, so I will talk to the princess when the time comes."
Yuxi likes to make friends with people of this kind, but it's a pity that she is too busy and has very little contact with Tong and others on weekdays.
After chatting for a while, Tong's words were no longer restrained, and he looked at Yuxi with a smile: "Speaking of which, what I admire the most is the maintenance method of the princess, which looks like a girl from the 28th year of China. "Yuxi's complexion is ruddy, her skin is crystal clear, she looks naturally younger.
Yuxi immediately talked to Tong about the topic of how women take care of them, and this talk came to noon. Yuxi left the Tong family to eat in the house, but was rejected by the Tong family.
Tong said with a smile: "My skin monkey, if I'm not at home, I won't eat well, so I have to go back and look at him."
When the Tong family returned home, he immediately wrote a letter to Cui Mo, telling Yu Cong about today’s affairs. At the end of the letter, let Cui Mo think about her and her children. Don’t fold yourself in and leave them behind for the sake of brotherhood. No one can rely on orphans and widows.
After the letter was delivered, Tong ate something casually and went to Feng Dajun's mansion to chat with Chang Shi for an afternoon.
Yuxi's news is very well-informed, and naturally knows Tong's movements. Yuxi expressed his satisfaction with this.
On the sixth day of March, the palace issued an official letter, announcing that Yun Qing would officially change his title to King Ming from this day, and Yuxi would naturally become Princess Ming.
Nothing has changed except for the title change, so this thing is like a drop of water falling into the lake without making any waves.
Yuxi smiled and said, "It's as you wish now." Yuxi was originally planning to hold a canonization ceremony, so that he could truly announce the world. As a result, Yun Qing was reluctant to live and die, and said that there was going to be a war soon, so he could deal with it in a low-key manner.
Yun Qing said: "This is good." The canonization ceremony was also a cutscene, completely unnecessary.
Yuxi smiled and said, "It's up to you this time, but not next time." You won't be able to become emperor in such a quiet way in the future, it will definitely be lively.
In the afternoon, Yun Qing received a secret letter from Feng Dajun. After reading this letter, Yun Qing hesitated for a long time, and finally told Yuxi about it.
After hearing Yun Qing's words, Yuxi was shocked, and said, "Feng Dajun wants to find a stand-in for Yu Cong and let him escape?"
Yun Qing also didn't expect Feng Dajun to have this idea: "I thought he wanted to stay out of the matter, but I didn't expect that he was actually making this idea."
Xu Wu had already told Feng Dajun about what Yu Cong had committed. Feng Dajun knew very well that Yuxi was unwilling to let Yu Cong go, and many people already knew about the mistakes Yu Cong committed, and he would not be able to convince the crowd if he didn't deal with it. Therefore, Feng Dajun thought that this is not a solution.
Yuxi smiled, General Feng really dare to think about it! However, it is estimated that Yun Qing felt unbearable before making this suggestion! Yuxi asked Yun Qing: "What do you think?"
Before Yun Qing expressed his opinion, he heard Xu Daniu say outside: "The prince, the princess, the old man is here."
Yuxi knew why Yun Qing came over.
Huo Changqing entered the study and said straightforwardly: "The army said that he wants Yu Cong to escape. I think this is a good idea. What do you think?"
Yuxi didn't speak.
Yuxi refused without even thinking about it: "No, Yu Cong must pay for the mistakes he made." Once the opening was opened, there were endless troubles.
Huo Changqing looked at Yun Qing with a calm face and said, "Yun Qing, Yu Cong was born and died with you for more than 20 years, can't you really spare his life?"
Yun Qing shook his head and said, "Uncle Huo, even now Yu Cong doesn't know how to repent, and he still clamors that Yuxi has planted him and framed him? Huo Uncle, Yu Cong is hopeless."
Huo Changqing was silent and asked, "Is there really no room left?"
Yun Qing didn't hesitate at all: "No."
Huo Changqing knew Yun Qing's temperament, and being able to say this meant that there was really no room for maneuver.
After waiting for Huo Changqing to leave, Yuxi looked at Yun Qing and said, "I thought you would agree!" Let Yu Cong die, not only played the role of killing chickens, but also full of friendship for many years, I have to say that this method is good. .
Yun Qing asked Yuxi back: "If I promise, Yuxi, would you agree?"
Yuxi was silent and said, "Herui, I don't want you to bear this guilt for the rest of your life. If you insist, I will give in."
Yun Qing said: "If he knows that he is wrong and is willing to reform, I will agree to the army's proposal. But he still doesn't think he is wrong. Since he didn't know the mistake, he would leave him a disaster."
When Yuxi saw this, her heart softened: "I made you embarrassed." In fact, if it weren't for her design, Yu Cong would not have come this far.
Yun Qing smiled and said, "I should say this. If you hadn't taken into account my mood, you would have resolved Yu Cong." In fact, Yu Cong only needs to deal with this matter according to the law. But Yuxi has been dragged down to the present because of his scruples.
Yuxi said: "The more you get, the more you lose. Herui, this is just the beginning." Yu Cong's matter is just the beginning.
Yun Qing felt that Yuxi's words were alarmist: "To me, you and your children are the most important." He was pretty sure that as long as he didn't do things that were sorry for Yuxi, he would never lose Yuxi and the children.
After a pause, Yun Qing said again: "As for the army, Cui Mo and others, as long as they don't do anything beyond, I believe you will not move them."
Yuxi chuckled lightly: "They are meritorious ministers. I have no time to treat them favorably, and I will think about dealing with them." But if they will be against her like Yu Cong in the future, she will not be merciful. .
Yun Qing smiled and said, "That's all right."
Huo Changqing returned to the yard and said to Xu Wu who was waiting: "Go and find a good coffin for him, and then choose a good piece of land for him." This is to prepare for Yu Cong's funeral.
Xu Wu's expression changed drastically, "Why didn't the princess even agree to let Yu Cong die?"
Huo Changqing shook his head and said, "Yun Qing didn't agree. Yun Qing said that Yu Cong hasn't repented until now. It is hopeless. To blame, blame Yu Cong for his own death!" How to let Yun Qing and Han let him go.
Xu Wu's eyes were red at once: "Master, he..."
Huo Changqing immediately interrupted Xu Wu's words: "Yun Qing did not do anything wrong, Yu Cong was the one who was wrong." Yun Qing's most sentimentality is the most important thing, and it shows that he has a cold heart for Yu Cong if he can say that.
Xu Wu was too uncomfortable to speak.
Huo Changqing said with a sullen face: "The pregnant concubine, are you all settled?"
Xu Wudao: "Settled well, with a wife taking care of him. After the child is born, I will bring it back to Haocheng."
Huo Changqing said: "I hope to be a son, so that all his thoughts are all!"
