At this moment, Beidou behind him knelt down with a thud: "Princess! Let Xi'er go back to Wushen Mountain with me."
The room fell silent for a moment, and everyone looked at Beidou. This was the most coherent and clear sentence he had ever said.
You know, the original Beidou couldn't speak.
The moment before Xi'er died, he opened his mouth and called out Xi'er's name.
Wen Qingzhu turned to look at him, Beidou's forehead was pressed tightly to the ground, he did not dare to get up, and his words became less fluent: "I, I know, Xi'er likes him, yes, yes, yes, just as a friend, But if, if it weren’t for him, Xi’er would not have died, please, Princess, let Xi’er come back to Wushen Mountain with me!”
"No, no!" Jin Yuanbao said hurriedly, but he also knew that he had no position to say this at all, and his momentum was much weaker.
Beidou suddenly raised his head, looked directly at Jin Yuanbao, and shouted loudly: "Everyone here can say no! Only you can't!"
As soon as these words came out, Jin Yuanbao's face turned pale and his body swayed. He put one hand on the edge of the coffin to stabilize himself.
Beidou looked at Wen Qingzhu, knelt down and kowtowed three times, and said stumblingly: "Thank you to the princess for the past few years. If it hadn't been for the princess sparing my life, I wouldn't be alive now. I don't have any wishes. I just want to be with Xi'er and ask the princess to make it happen."
There was another ringing of the head, Beidou couldn't kneel down.
Wen Qingzhu sighed and turned to look at Xi'er in the coffin. She still looked familiar in his memory, but she could no longer open her eyes.
"Xi'er likes Jin Yuanbao, but he is already married. Xi'er will not be the one to steal love secretly, so..."
Wen Qingzhu turned to Beidou and said, "Take her away."
After receiving a positive answer, Beidou quickly stood up and ran to the coffin, crying and laughing, as if he wanted to say something, but as he had just learned to speak, he could only make babbling sounds.
Jin Yuanbao, who was leaning against the coffin, finally cried silently.
He owed favors to many people in his life, but he never owed his life to others.
He is half responsible for the teacher's life, but he is fully responsible for Xi'er's life.
Wen Qingzhu said nothing and glanced at Yang Liu, asking him to look at Beidou and Jin Yuanbao.
There was supposed to be a funeral in the next few days, but since Beidou wanted to take Xi'er away, he changed it to cremation and put the ashes in an urn and handed it to Beidou.
Before leaving, Beidou came to say goodbye.
This was the first time Wen Qingzhu saw Beidou wearing white clothes. In the past, he always wore black and stood silently in the corner without speaking.
"Princess, I'm going back to Wushen Mountain." Over the past two days, Beidou has spoken very clearly.
He held the urn, his expression returned to his former indifference, and he bowed like Yang Liu.
Wen Qingzhu stepped forward to help him up: "Take good care of yourself, Xi'er has always been very good to you. As you know, when you return to Wushen Mountain, if you have any problems, you can go to Yu'er. She now treats the Wu clan and Cangzhou is very familiar with it.”
Beidou nodded and said thank you a few more times. Wen Qingzhu said a few words and stood up to see him off.
He was extremely skilled in martial arts and didn't want to leave in a big way, so no one except Fu Lie and Yang Liu knew how he left.
The Cui family's post was sent over, along with three small and exquisite strollers.
The pear blossom wood was given to the prince, and the agarwood was given to the two princesses.
Lu Tao got familiar with it for a while, put on the soft cushions and gauze cover, and then took the maid and pushed the stroller to the main room.
The person in the room is Cui Li, who has taken over the Cui family and is here to place an invitation for Cui Xiushan.
Hearing the movement at the door, Cui Li immediately stood up and walked over, asking Lu Tao: "Is it easy to use?"
"It's very convenient, the stuff is very good!" Lu Tao pushed the princesses to Wen Qingzhu's side and kept showing how to use the stroller.
Wen Qingzhu learned about this thing from Xiaohuan. The last time Liang Pingshu came over, she casually said that Cui Xiushan had made the baby stroller in just a few days.
Cui Li came back and sat down. His eyes fell on the prince. He thought of what happened in the court these days and said, "Does the princess know that many courtiers have sent beauties to the emperor recently?"
"I know, Fu Lie told me about this. There will be more beauties in the harem and it will be more lively." Wen Qingzhu didn't care. She really hoped that Jiang Yuanhan could accept other people.
Seeing that her expression remained unchanged, Cui Li knew that Wen Qingzhu definitely didn't know what was going on in the palace.
"The princess probably doesn't know that the emperor has never left any beauties before his visit. On two occasions, he even threw the beauties who came near him naked out."
Wen Qingzhu didn't care about this. It was one thing to want to do something, but it was another thing to be able to do it.
Cui Li was a little helpless: "Many people in the Heavenly Palace have heard that the emperor... The emperor is not good enough. Even the Wei family's wife came into the palace and asked a few questions, saying whether she wanted to come to the palace to see you."
"Which Mrs. Wei?" Wen Qingzhu was a little curious at this moment.
"Of course the one who can enter the palace at this time is the queen's biological mother, Wei Shuang's wife Chai." Cui Li frowned slightly, feeling that Wen Qingzhu seemed to know something.
Hearing the last two words, Wen Qingzhu immediately covered his lips and smiled, and said rather helplessly: "Mrs. Wei said this on purpose. After all, there were rumors that the queen was not favored, but now it seems that the queen is favored, but she still has no children. , but isn’t it just rumored that the Queen cannot have children?”
Cui Li was shocked: "You mean that Mrs. Wei was very angry about those rumors, so she deliberately spread the word that the emperor was not good enough!"
"No, Mrs. Wei is a sweetheart." Wen Qingzhu felt better when he thought of his time in Jinzhou.
But Cui Li became more and more depressed. No matter how sweet-tempered Mrs. Wei was, and no matter how much she loved her daughter, she shouldn't make fun of the emperor.
The emperor was obviously very indifferent to the princess these days, but he did not secretly treat the regent.
Wen Qingzhu interrupted his thoughts: "Let's not talk about it for now. Is Xiushan and Pingshu's marriage really decided this time? I heard that General Ruan also fell in love with Pingshu... "
Qingning Palace, Tingfeng Tower.
Jiang Yuanhan ordered someone to prepare pen and ink, and asked Wei Qinglin to wait aside and start painting.
Not long after, a nanny came from behind and asked: "My dear, Concubine Shu has something to ask you. She is waiting downstairs. Where are you?"
She glanced at the emperor who was concentrating on painting, but did not dare to say the next words.
Whenever the emperor is in a bad mood these days, he will come to the queen.
Wei Qinglin winked at her and asked her to go down.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yuanhan was in a rare good mood this time. He stopped writing and said: "Please come up, Concubine Shu."
Soon Fu Jue went upstairs and saluted Jiang Yuanhan and Wei Qinglin.
"Fu Jue, how do you think I treat you?" Jiang Yuanhan turned around and asked Fu Jue to look up at him and reply.
Fu Jue naturally knows about the recent rumors in the palace.
She was a little tired, Mrs. Wei's temperament was so protective of her shortcomings.
Thinking of the palace maid who was confiscated last time, Fu Jue looked at Wei Qinglin for help and saw her nodding with gentle eyes.
Fu Jue was startled. Could it be that the emperor was not in a bad mood
After careful consideration, Fu Jue chose an ambiguous answer: "The emperor is very kind to me and gives me what I want."
"Really?" Jiang Yuanhan touched his chin, then turned to look outside the building. As far as he could see, he could overlook half of the palace.
His voice was emotionless as he said, "Fu Yu, please ask me to do you a favor today and give you a child."
"Your Majesty, spare your life!" Fu Jue immediately knelt down and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Wei Qinglin sighed helplessly, went over to help Fu Jue up, looked at Jiang Yuanhan with complicated eyes and said, "Your Majesty knows that Sister Fu is timid, yet you still scare her like this!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yuanhan looked back with a rare smile on his face: "I am not scaring her, but she is scaring herself."
At Wei Qinglin's signal, the serving palace attendants withdrew, leaving only three masters.
Jiang Yuanhan played with the empty tea cup in his hand, his eyes wandered between the two of them, and asked: "Why did I send the prince to the regent's palace in the first place? Why did I go back to the regent's palace that night? And I stayed with the princess, regent. The king is actually standing guard outside the door."
Wei Qinglin and Fu Jue looked at each other, and sure enough, what was supposed to come had come.
Fu Jue knew less about this matter than Wei Qinglin, so she stood up and prepared to leave.
Jiang Yuanhan stretched out his hand to hold her: "Sit down!"
The tone was unusually serious, so Fu Jue had no choice but to sit down.
"The Emperor still remembers one thing." Wei Qinglin is very smart, and she can see through some things.
Jiang Yuanhan felt slightly nervous: "What's going on?"
Wei Qinglin turned to look at the Regent's Mansion outside the palace: "The Emperor once wanted to kill the Regent for one person, and even colluded with the Huns to get rid of most of the Fu family's army. After returning to Beijing, he ordered the soldiers from the camp on the outskirts of Beijing to Get rid of the remaining Fu family troops."
"I..." Have you ever done this
For one person, who
Jiang Yuanhan raised his hand to rest his forehead, feeling that his memory was a little confused. He clearly remembered that most of the Fu family's army was damaged because of their defeat.
Next stop in the capital, isn't that what the eldest son of the Minister of War did
Fu Jue also knew these things, but what she was confused about was that the emperor's reaction was not right.
Wei Qinglin had found out the details about Jiang Yuanhan in the past few days and said calmly: "The emperor is after sister Qingzhu. You want to get her, so you want to kill the regent. Moreover, the main reason for the emperor's illness is because of Qingzhu. elder sister."
"Because of the Princess Regent? I clearly remember that she is-" Jiang Yuanhan suddenly felt a headache and his eyebrows tightened even more.
At this moment, Ye Gan flashed up and appeared behind Jiang Yuanhan, reporting: "Your Majesty, Lord Fan, Minister of War, has allowed the rebels to enter the city!"
"Master Fan?" Wei Qing suddenly stood up and asked quickly, "What about Master Fan Yu from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division? Where is he?"
Ye Qian looked a little ugly: "I don't know for the time being."
Wei Qinglin turned around anxiously and was about to leave, but Jiang Yuanhan stood up and shouted: "Queen, don't worry, I arranged this matter together with the regent. Zhang Ke said that in addition to the wallflowers in the official department, there are also courtiers. There is someone from Jiang Yuancheng.”
"Really?" No wonder Wei Qinglin didn't believe it, Jiang Yuanhan had been with her these days.
Jiang Yuanhan looked at Xian Yeqian and said, "Hold still, the regent will take care of it."
"I obey my orders." Ye Qian quietly retreated.
Jiang Yuanhan walked to the railing, looked in the direction of the North City Gate, and murmured to himself: "I hope Master Fan can do something."
These words made Wei Qinglin frown. He always felt that Jiang Yuanhan deliberately caused Fan Shangshu to get into trouble.
In the main courtyard of the palace, Fu Lie is learning to coax the children.
When Yang Liu came to report in a hurry, he handed the manman to Wen Qingzhu, took off the sword hanging on the wall, turned around and left.
I don’t know why, but Manman, who has always been well-behaved, burst into tears.
Wen Qingzhu stood up quickly, looked at Fu Lie's back outside the door, and asked Lu Tao: "Go and contact Fan Yu. I always feel like something is wrong."
The regent led a search, but no one dared to resist.
After a search, no suspicious person was found, but Fu Lie still targeted Shangshu Mansion.
By chance, Lu Tao hurried back to the palace and told Wen Qingzhu a shocking news.
"Fan Yu was at Miaomiao's place last night, saying he was investigating the rebels, but in the past few days, Fan Yu has been patrolling the capital."
