Chapter 153
The atmosphere in Kyoto just after the new year will not be reduced by half because of difficulties in the Han family. What's more, the Lantern Festival is not yet out, and the capitals in Kyoto are very lively.
Liu Shangxiang, who had just become the second concubine, was sitting at a wedding banquet hosted by a minister in the court.
Liu Shangxiang was wearing a red dress that only newlyweds would wear. She held her head high and looked at the people around her with disdain.
But her disdain didn't last long, and she was frowned by a noise in the corner.Liu Shangxiang's face was not considered eye-catching, but suddenly there was a wave of anger.
"Who is arguing over there?" Liu Shangxiang is well-known in the capital for her arrogant temper. Before, she was impatient with people surrounding her and making noise, but now that someone is stealing her limelight, Liu Shangxiang will also be annoyed.
Listening to Liu Shangxiang's question, a woman just happened to come over from the noisy side, "Reporting to the second imperial concubine, they are discussing the latest rumors in Beijing."
When replying, a look of embarrassment suddenly appeared on the face of the woman who sent the message.
But Liu Shangxiang didn't take a closer look, and only frowned more tightly, "What are the rumors spreading, what else in the capital I don't know? Please tell me everything you heard carefully."
The embarrassment on the woman's face became more and more intense, and she was hesitating.
The banquet hall fell into silence immediately.Listening to Liu Shangxiang's words, the host of the wedding banquet just wanted to interrupt, but was stopped by the person standing beside her.
The reason is very simple, even though Liu Shangxiang is now the second concubine, if she wants to inquire about something or get something, no one else will be able to stop her.
Liu Shangxiang's words were obviously intended to tell the woman to tell her all the gossip she heard.Liu Shangxiang doesn't care what occasion it is now.
The woman who sent the message bit her lip and looked around, and saw that no one in the banquet hall stood up to cheer for her, so no matter how embarrassing what she heard, or even make Liu Shangxiang angry, she had to bear it by herself.
"Hurry up." Liu Shangxiang urged impatiently after waiting for a long time before the woman who sent the message could speak.
The woman who spread the word bit her lower lip again, and then said, "There is a rumor over there, a rumor suddenly spread in the capital today, saying that the twelve princes died strangely before, and the real murderer has not been found until now. The reason is that Because the Twelfth Prince was actually killed by his elder brother, the Second Prince."
The woman who conveys the message is not very good at learning words.
He only told out all the information he heard, and didn't consider whether the words were logical.
However, after listening to what the woman said, everyone in the banquet hall cast their eyes on Liu Shangxiang in unison.
Contrary to everyone's expectations, Liu Shangxiang did not show a look of anger, but a look of disdain.
"Hmph, I thought it was something." Liu Shangxiang almost finished speaking through his nasal cavity.Still holding his chin high, Liu Shangxiang grabbed the wine glass on the table and drank happily, "Although there was a big square wooden box in our master's study before, and there was a bloody smell coming from it, but this is definitely not the case. As rumored, it contained the heads of the Twelve Princes."
Before Liu Shangxiang finished speaking, the faces of the people in the banquet hall almost changed again.
Looking at them suspiciously, Liu Shangxiang only frowned, and continued, "Besides, since our master and the twelfth brother are brothers, it is even more impossible for our master to do it. If we really want to take away No matter what happens to the twelfth brother's life, he will arrange for other people to do it, our master is not that stupid."
As soon as Liu Shangxiang uttered these two sentences, the people present turned white and then purple, purple and then black.
Even though everyone knows that Liu Shangxiang has no winks, they don't know that not only does she have no winks, but she also has no brains.
This is not an explanation for Xiao Jue, it is obviously to push Xiao Jue into an abyss.
"Second imperial concubine, be careful with your words." Finally, one person couldn't stand it any longer and reminded Liu Shangxiang in a low voice.
Unexpectedly, Liu Shangxiang was addicted to talking, ignored the reminders from others, and just spit out everything he knew, "Also, don't look at the fall of the Han family because the emperor's mind is hard to guess. , Let me tell you, these are actually arranged by our master!"
As Liu Shangxiang talked, her head was raised higher and higher.
Looking at her posture, she seemed to be showing off her husband to others.But I didn't think about it at all. These words should not be said.
After hearing a few words from Liu Shangxiang, there were several husbands who were on Xiao Jue's side, and they couldn't hide the darkening of their faces anymore.
But his face was dark, but he could only mutter in his heart, "Emperor Dongling arranged such a concubine for the second prince, and I don't know what kind of intention it is. It is estimated that all the ladies present will be more than Liu Shangxiang." mind."
If Liu Shangxiang's words spread today, then the day when Xiao Jue will die is not far away.
"What are you muttering in your mouths? Am I wrong?!" Liu Shangxiang saw that everyone lowered their heads, and some of them had trembling shoulders, and anger suddenly surged in his heart.
Annoyed, Liu Shangxiang's first thought was how to reprimand others.
……
Snapped.
The neat things on the table were easily collapsed by Emperor Dong Ling's slap.
The memorials and teacups scattered all over the place clearly showed the anger in Emperor Dong Ling's heart at this time.Under the wrath of the emperor, Xiao Jue, who was kneeling on the ground, only dared to lower his head, unable to argue.
"Second brother, tell me, is what your daughter-in-law said at the wedding banquet yesterday true?!" This was already said while Emperor Dongling suppressed his anger.
Originally, he wanted to put aside the matter of Twelve, although that was also his son, compared to Xiao Jue, losing a youngest son was not too unacceptable.
However, just yesterday, Liu Shangxiang yelled about everything regardless of the occasion.
Even if she didn't say it clearly, anyone with a brain can understand what Liu Shangxiang said.
Emperor Dongling received dozens of memorials today, all of which were about what happened yesterday.
What's more, this matter is not only discussed among the ministers in the court, but also the matter of Xiao Jue and the twelve princes is also discussed in the public. If Emperor Dongling does not deal with this matter immediately, it may not be a few days , he will be drowned in saliva by the entire Dongling people.
Being reprimanded by Emperor Dong Ling, Xiao Jue could only kneel on the ground and dare not move.
Clenching his fists tightly, in fact, in Xiao Jue's heart, he had already pinched Liu Shangxiang tens of millions of times.
Not only Liu Shangxiang, but also Liu Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and even Emperor Dongling were also annoyed by him.If it wasn't because they wanted to force Liu Shangxiang to him, why would he have to go through this.
"This happened so suddenly, I really don't know how to deal with you properly!" Emperor Dong Ling took a few breaths, as if trying to relieve the anger in his heart.
Rubbing the position near his chest, Emperor Dong Ling felt as if something was stuck there, which made him very uncomfortable.
Xiao Jue, who had kept his head down before, finally dared to raise his head. Looking at Emperor Dongling's wrinkled face, he pretended to be worried and said, "Father, calm down."
Xiao Jue's words didn't let Emperor Dong Ling relieve the boredom in his heart, but made him even more difficult to breathe.
Grasping his chest and skirt, Emperor Dong Ling suddenly leaned on the dragon chair behind him. "Come on, tell Zhao Han to come and see me quickly!"
Seeing that Emperor Dong Ling didn't look at him again, a look of panic suddenly flashed in Xiao Jue's eyes.Thinking about that every time Zhao Han appeared, it was when Emperor Dong Ling was about to execute someone, the panic in Xiao Jue's eyes deepened.
Not long after, Zhao Han hurried into the imperial study.
The first thing that caught my eye was Emperor Dongling sitting on the dragon chair with an ugly expression, while Xiao Jue was still kneeling on his knees.
After Zhao Han saluted, he respectfully said, "I don't know why the emperor summoned his ministers?"
After Zhao Han finished speaking, he looked up at Emperor Dongling again, and when he saw a morbid blush gradually appearing on his face, Zhao Han asked worriedly, "But the emperor is not feeling well, do you need your minister?" Go call the doctor over?"
Emperor Dong Ling took a deep breath, and after finally suppressing the boredom in his chest, he raised his eyes and waved his hands, "I'm fine. I've called you here to let you personally push this rebellious son into the dungeon." , waiting for my hair to fall."
"Father!"
"emperor!"
He exclaimed twice, as if he never thought that Emperor Dong Ling would give such an order.
Xiao Jue still knelt on the ground, and finally showed the previous panic on his face, "The matter of the twelfth younger brother is really not the work of my son, please let my father learn from me."
Now there are only rumors attacking him, but if Xiao Jue is really imprisoned by Emperor Dongling, then his reputation of mutilating siblings will be completely detained.
If there is such a stigma, let alone being able to get in touch with the dragon chair, I am afraid that even the title of prince he currently has will soon be lost.
Seeing Xiao Jue's panic, and Emperor Dong Ling's dark complexion, apart from the exclamation just now, Zhao Han just stood aside with dark eyes.
"I did this to protect you!"
Originally, Emperor Dong Ling didn't want to pay attention to Xiao Jue, and wanted Zhao Han to take Xiao Jue away directly, but now Xiao Jue crawled to his feet and grabbed his clothes, so Emperor Dong Ling had to explain.
"After everything is over, as long as I'm still in this position, I can clear your name. What are you afraid of?!" Emperor Dong Ling said to Xiao Jue with a bit of resentment.
However, no matter what explanation Dongling Emperor made, Xiao Jue's face still maintained the previous panic.
Waving his hand, Emperor Dong Ling tightened his heart and told Zhao Han, "Suppress the second child now. In addition, you should be careful not to let the news spread about Han Qing's whole house. As for the disposal, you can also Leave it alone."
