The rebirth of the poisonous concubine

Chapter 319 Sowing Divorce and Hiding Murder Intent

Situ Xiao was amazed and couldn't take his eyes off him. Situ Rui smiled and said, "The novelty is yet to come."

Li Deshou studied ink for Situ Xiao. The inkstone was only the size of a palm, and it was carved with patterns of pine, plum and bamboo, the three friends of Suihan. Fragrance, fresh as empty valley.

"Green as ink, moist as jade, and fragrant as orchid, could it be the orchid inkstone produced in Luoxi?!" Situ Xiao's eyes lit up, and it seemed that he wished he could pounce on it and hug him home.

Seeing Situ Xiao like this, Situ Rui smiled helplessly: "It seems that I can't keep this inkstone."

A court lady had already spread the rice paper on the table, Situ Rui said with a smile: "It seems that my inkstone and brush washers are not guaranteed today, so the emperor should leave a pair of words as compensation."

Everyone in the world knows that King Yu Situ Xiao is proficient in rhythm and good at calligraphy and painting. Although he was born in the royal family, he has a dissolute and unrestrained personality.There was a sensation, Luoyang paper is expensive.

Situ Xiao also laughed, and said: "It seems that the emperor is unwilling to do business at a loss no matter what."

However, Situ Rui shook his head slightly, "I've lost a lot in this business. The brush washer and inkstone are priceless treasures. It's not a grievance for the uncle to leave a picture, right?"

"Yes yes yes, what the emperor said is very true, the old minister has really made money." Laughing, Situ Xiao also took the purple hair on the dragon case politely, put the pen in the brush washer and gave the ink to him. When it bloomed, I saw that the hibiscus flower that was about to bloom seemed to be unfolding slowly. As the ink slowly bloomed, a line of poem appeared next to it, "Shejiang picks hibiscus, Lanze is full of fragrant grass. Picking Whoever you want to leave behind, your thoughts are far away."

It turns out that there is something special in this brush washer. The brush washer that looks like white porcelain hides Yang Yanyi's calligraphy and paintings. Its value is really incomparable.

Situ Xiao was overjoyed, so he dipped his brush in ink and wrote a poem, which was exactly the poem Qin Wange recited in Shanglin Garden.

Shuying horizontally and shallow water, subtle fragrance floating moon dusk.

Situ Rui saw Situ Xiao's writing like flying, and couldn't help clapping his hands and applauding, "It's such a sentence that the shadows are slanting horizontally, the water is clear and shallow, and the fragrance is floating in the moon and dusk. A few more points."

In addition to the crazy cursive script, the poetry is even better.

"This poem was not made by me. When I passed by Shanglin Garden, I heard the imperial concubine reciting this poem. I thought it was very good, so I wrote it down quietly. I thought it was borrowing flowers to present Buddha." Situ Xiao said with a smile .

On the contrary, Situ Rui was a little surprised, and said: "I never thought that Susu has such a great talent. I don't know about it on weekdays. It really surprises me all the time." There was only joy in his eyes, without any trace of doubt.

Situ Xiao frowned unconsciously, but said nothing.

The two chatted about calligraphy and painting for a while, and Situ Xiao asked seemingly unintentionally: "Just now, I saw that the emperor's complexion is not very good, but what happened in court? No matter what, the emperor should pay attention to his body."

Situ Rui saw that Situ Xiao brought up the matter in the court, and he was a little unhappy. He said: "It's not about the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. The Eastern Zhou Dynasty united with several small countries to invade the border. Fortunately, there is a defense line of Yongzhou on the border, and the leader of the army is Hu. Gui, I believed it before, and I was not afraid of it for a while in the East Monday. What makes me worry is that the spies came to report that there seems to be something strange in Lingzhou. King Lingzhou also knows that there is something strange in Lingzhou, and I have to guard against it."

Situ Rui was not very wary of his uncle Situ Xiao. He always felt that Situ Xiao was obsessed with romance. Although he was in the court these years, he was a prince in name only, and he did not take the initiative to meddle with the government; in addition, Situ Xiao was completely out of the matter and did not participate in the matter of seizing the heirloom back then, which reassured him a lot, and he felt that Situ Xiao was nothing to guard against.

It's a pity, Situ Rui is still too naive and self-willed, he doesn't understand: people who seem less threatening are often the most dangerous.For example, the glamorous imperial concubine who is hard to find in the world, such as this Uncle Yu who seems to be infatuated with love and affairs but seems to have no interest in government affairs.

What he cared about and feared most in his heart was Situ Yan.

Apart from the Qin family and Qin Wange, Situ Yan is the biggest nightmare in his life. He has always regarded Situ Yan as a thorn in his side. As long as Situ Yan is alive, he will not have a day of peace.He always felt that even if Situ Yan was placed in Lingzhou, he was still staring at him.

Father wanted to pass on the throne to Situ Yan when he was still alive, how could he not allow Situ Yan to succeed, how could he easily give it up by using the Qin family to take advantage of Qin Wange's hard-won fortune?
This dragon chair is too comfortable, and the feeling of being the emperor's harem is so wonderful, he is reluctant and unwilling to give up.It was even more impossible for him to allow Situ Yan, who was forced into his thoughts by him, to come back and rob Xiling of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains with him!

However, even though he was jealous of Situ Yan and didn't give Situ Yan a way out, Situ Yan still lived well until now, but he had nothing to do with Situ Yan!
Not being able to tolerate him, but not being able to kill him, is a great humiliation and provocation for a king!
Seeing the change in Situ Rui's expression when he mentioned Situ Yan, Yu Wang Situ Xiao had a cold and calculating smile on his lips, but he quickly restrained himself, made a very surprised expression, and said: "The emperor said that the spirit King of the state? Isn’t the king of Lingzhou recuperating in the capital now? As far as I know, since he was assassinated on the way back to Lingzhou from the capital, he has been recuperating in the palace of the king of Lingzhou.”

"Hmph! Rehabilitation, who knows if it's real or fake?" Situ Rui snorted coldly.

Although Huang Sha reported several times that Situ Yan was indeed still recovering from his injuries in the Lingzhou Palace, and the doctor kept coming in and out, making medicine and taking turns taking care of him every day, even for the New Year, the Lingzhou Palace did not have any festive decorations.

However, Situ Rui had a deep taboo against Situ Yan. When Situ Xiao mentioned this, he immediately felt that even if Situ Yan was abolished by him, he was still determined to be lucky. The bureau was set up in the capital.

The more he thought about it, the more suspicious Situ Rui became.

Situ Xiao didn't speak, but Situ Rui met someone who spoke in a square shape. How could Situ Xiao remain silent, so he said, "Why is the emperor not talking anymore? Do you think this news is reliable?"

Situ Xiao looked at Situ Rui with a troubled expression on his face, as if he had something to say in his heart, but he didn't know whether to say it, he was very entangled and uncomfortable.

Situ Rui is so smart, he immediately felt that his uncle was entangled in five internal affairs, so he put on the air of an emperor and said, "If the uncle has something to say, just say it directly. In front of me, it is difficult for the uncle to return it." Is there anything you can't say?"

"The emperor's forgiveness is not because I want to hide it on purpose, but I don't know whether I should say this or not." Situ Xiao stammered.It seems even more pretentious.

"The emperor also knows that the minister has never asked about political affairs for a long time. If this matter is said to involve political affairs, if what the minister said makes the emperor's judgment on political affairs wrong, the minister is Vance. The emperor asked the minister, if the minister does not tell the truth, it is a crime of deceiving the emperor. Minister, dare not speak falsely."

The more Situ Xiao said that, the more suspicious Situ Rui became - Uncle Yu Wang must know some big secret, so he hesitated to speak so much.

Therefore, Situ Rui said generously: "Uncle Huang has something to say, just say it. No matter what Uncle Huang said, I will treat it as just chatting, and I will never blame you."

"Then...forgive me for talking too much, old minister." Situ Xiaoxiang took a reassurance, and then slowly said: "This should start from the first half of last year. Last year, I asked the emperor for leave to go to the south of the Yangtze River. I met the so-called Pipa The young girl who is a national player, and the young girl are friends."

Situ Rui was speechless when he heard this.But it was not easy to interrupt, so I listened patiently.

"I learned that Miss Qing wanted to find a good pipa, so I accompanied Miss Qing to Lingzhou, which is rich in pipas. The Fengming pipa there is the best, so naturally it is the first choice. It was also a trip to Lingzhou, Originally, I was planning to leave Beijing for half a year, but I never thought of delaying it for such a long time and coming back at the end of the year."

Situ Rui laughed teasingly, and said, "Uncle Huang is really free, but he took leave of absence from Beijing to travel around."

Situ Xiao was a little embarrassed, "The emperor has made fun of the old minister."

"Okay, the emperor is used to this." Situ Rui said: "Since the emperor has gone to Lingzhou, how is the current situation in Lingzhou? Situ Yan, is it true that there is a change as stated in the secret letter?" ?”

Situ Rui kept a secret from Situ Yan, and Lingzhou has never been short of spies sent by him.

But, in the final analysis, Lingzhou is Situ Yan's territory after all. Situ Rui is very clear about his younger brother's abilities. If the spies go, how much of what they find out is true?

However, seeing that Lingzhou was far away from the capital city, and it was a bitterly cold place on the border, Situ Rui felt more at ease.But he didn't expect that this uncle, who only knew how to recite poems and write romantic poems, would make a trip to Lingzhou by mistake.

Seeing that Situ Rui had gotten to the point, Situ Xiao's expression became inexplicably serious, and he said, "I went to Lingzhou ten years ago, but when I went this time, I found that Lingzhou ten years later is different from the one ten years ago. Lingzhou is very different."

"How to say?"

"When I went to Lingzhou ten years ago, the border of Lingzhou was desolate, and the people lived very poorly, and were often harassed by the Miao people. The life was miserable. However, today Lingzhou has opened trade routes with various places on the southwestern border, and the people They reclaimed wasteland, and the people live and work in peace and prosperity, and some people jokingly call Lingzhou the south of the Yangtze River outside the Great Wall. This shows how rich it is.”

Jiangnan outside the Great Wall?snort!

"The people of Lingzhou are grateful to the king of Lingzhou. When I was wandering in the street, I heard the people of Lingzhou talking. I only knew that there was a king of Lingzhou, but not the emperor of Xiling. It was because of this that I was a little suspicious in my heart. When I arrived in the capital, I didn’t see King Lingzhou at the banquet, so I rashly asked about the whereabouts of King Lingzhou.”
