Biography of Concubine Shujia

Chapter 146

Zhaoyang Hall, the main hall.

When Emperor Rui arrived with Mrs. Shujia, all the concubines who had been comforted in the side hall had already arrived.A good banquet ended with the assassination and the disappearance of the prince and princess.

Now the emperor sent someone to invite them back to the main hall again, and none of the people in the hall were human spirits, and they all waited silently for the turn of events.

The blood in the palace has been cleaned up, but the blood in the palace can be washed away with clean water?
"Brother Emperor, my younger brother and Commander Lu, after accepting your order, searched the East and West Twelve Palaces separately. My younger brother lived up to the entrustment and found the third prince in the Yaohua Palace of the Sixth West Palace. The two princes are safe and sound. Commander Lu has sent back news that the eighth princess has also been found and is on her way to Zhaoyang Hall."

The Eight Kings spoke out to break the silence in the hall.

Behind the eight kings was the third prince who was surrounded by the imperial army, the third prince who changed clothes at the banquet but disappeared.

The emperor nodded to the eight kings, "Thank you, brother."

Looking up, the third son stood behind the eight kings.The lines on this young man's face had already begun to become hard and cold, his first pair of eyes looked like his mother and concubine, and the cold expression in his eyes was very much like his own.

Right now, the third prince, Mu Yao, has changed into dark blue clothes, with a white fox cloak outside, making him look very bloated.Facing his cloak, the emperor glanced at it and knew it.This son's heart is cold and ruthless, and he knows that it is good to care for his younger brother.

The third prince stood at the moment and let the emperor and others look at him. He listened to the brief conversation between his father and his uncle, and he didn't interrupt. The elders didn't ask, and he didn't need to explain.

"Third brother, it's been a long time since you changed clothes. You scared my younger brother to death, and my younger brother was assassinated like third elder brother and concubine." The fifth prince stared at Mu Yao and asked with concern.

"It's Yao'er's fault for worrying the father, the queen, and the concubine." Mu Yao saluted the two people above him, and with his movements, the cloak was swayed.

While shaking, he revealed the sixth prince Mu Jing who was hugging on his chest, who was dressed in comfortable clothes.Mu Jing clasped Mu Yao's neck with both hands, and buried his head on Mu Yao's shoulder, sleeping in a daze.

Accompanied by the movements of the third prince, he twisted his body uncomfortably.Mu Yao closed the gap in the cloak, tightened his arms, and supported the little brother up again.

"Get up, give Jing'er to Ben Gong." Mrs. Shujia called out under the emperor's signal.

"Thank you father and concubine mother, it is inconvenient for the concubine mother, it is better for the son to hug the younger brother." The third prince looked at the concubine mother and said disapprovingly.

When she got up, she really touched the wound on her waist, Mu Yao gritted her teeth and wobbled before she stood still.

Naturally, his actions did not escape the people who had been watching him.

"What's wrong with third brother?" Of course, the Fifth Prince would not let go of this detail and asked again.

"Trouble fifth brother, it's just a few little mice with no eyes. They stretched their claws too long, and they got slashed inadvertently." Mu Yao turned his eyes to the fifth prince and said casually.

"There are rats in the palace? My brother will take someone to clean up our prince inside and out. If there is a rat infestation, it will be troublesome." The fifth prince will instead look innocently worried, "The third brother was killed The mouse has scratched it, can you call the imperial doctor?"

"Fifth brother, don't panic, it's just a few mice. The mouse with no eyes has already been chopped off by this king."

As Mu Yao's cold voice fell, the fifth prince's face turned pale, and he quickly lowered his head to hide the defense and fear in his eyes.

Mu Yao stopped fighting with the fifth prince, and turned to the second prince, "My brother heard what happened in Zhaoyang Palace from the eighth uncle. Thank you, the second brother, for protecting my mother and concubine, and worrying about my brother."

"It should be, third brother, you don't have to be polite. This prince was also raised by Concubine Shumu. Protecting Concubine Shu, caring for third brother is my duty as a son and a brother."

"Thank you. From now on, the king will protect his mother, concubine and younger siblings. It is better for the second elder brother to focus on concubine Demu. I appreciate your kindness."

Mu Yao no longer entangled with the second prince, but still made a fuss about his identity to suppress the second prince.

His mother concubine, Mrs. Shujia, was the first first-class wife in the dynasty, and she was in charge of Fengyin; he was the county king personally appointed by the emperor, and with him, it would not be the turn of the second prince and mother to be so arrogant.

But it's useless to say more, his father will not get rid of the second prince's game now, it's too early.He will not do more useless work, chop off a few of his minions, and a warning is enough.Any more, and his good father would become suspicious.

It has to be said that Mu Yao's understanding of his father is correct, Emperor Rui has been sizing up his son since he entered the palace.And he guessed in his heart whether his good son had intervened in this matter.

"Tell the imperial physician first." The emperor ordered, "It's not my fault that your fifth brother is confused, and I'm also surprised that you can touch mice when you change clothes like this."

"The son is also puzzled. Today, I saw that the concubine mother was happy to see the aunt in the painting, and the son was also happy. I ate a few more glasses, spilled the wine, and dirty the clothes."

Emperor Rui raised his eyebrows and looked at Mu Yao, if he said that his son was as ruthless and cold as himself in dealing with things, then his temperament was completely different.He treats people with great enthusiasm, and has always been very popular in the court.

"Don't worry, isn't your son talking about that?" Mu Yao blinked at his father embarrassingly, "The son didn't plan to go to the concubine's mother at first, but went back to the prince's place to change clothes. But the man who passed by the imperial garden At that time, I thought that the pear blossoms that the concubine mother likes should bloom. The emperor didn't ask people to pay tribute this year, so the son wanted to pick some for the concubine mother first. So he went to the imperial garden first."

"Third brother is in a good mood, picking flowers to present to mother to show filial piety." The second prince sneered.

"I don't have the filial piety of the second brother. I found a lot of jewelry and food for Concubine Demu from Fengcheng, and they all rushed eight hundred miles along with the military report."

"You!" The second prince blushed, could he say that he was deliberately sending news to his mother and concubine through eating?

"Second brother, don't worry, younger brother will continue. Father is still waiting to hear about his son chopping up mice in anger." Mu Yao led the second prince into the army, and then returned to the previous topic.

"Since you know that I'm waiting for you, a monkey, don't be a fool. Don't be naughty in front of the envoys of various countries." The emperor's words were already filled with displeasure.

"Yes, Father. My son heard someone conspiring in the Imperial Garden to win the favor of Princess Daliang, which made the princess ask for a marriage."

As soon as Mu Yao's words came out, not only the envoys from various countries, but even the second prince and the fifth prince were shocked.This is different from what they conspired before, what kind of mystery is Mu Yao up to.

But the envoys present here are not stupid, they have always been on good terms with Daliang, so they can naturally understand Daliang's language.This Liangjun Wang Muyao spoke nicely, but he was implying that some of them were plotting for the princess to lose her virginity and had to marry.

While these envoys were afraid, they couldn't help defending themselves.

"Prince Liangjun can't talk nonsense. Our country's lord is about the same age as His Majesty Rui Emperor. There was no princess in the previous generation. Our country will definitely not do anything to ruin the reputation of the princess."

"Yes, we have been friends with Daliang for several lifetimes, and we respect the princess as a young lady, so we dare not have such delusions."

"Kunsang already has a Da Yan clan, and Khan loves the Da Yan clan, so there is no need to appoint Princess Daliang as the Yan clan." As soon as Mo Ku's words came out, the envoys of various countries were jealous and afraid.

What he said means that all the countries present here are suspicious of Kunsang.

"What else did the third brother hear?" The fifth prince couldn't wait to ask, since the plan to frame Mu Yao had been broken, he didn't care about the future.

"Your third brother, I really want to continue to hear something, but my fifth brother knows my kung fu, and he was discovered within a moment. If it wasn't for the vigilant guardian who followed me and led me to take a shortcut and withdraw from there, Today, the fifth brother will really not see your third brother and me."

"Oh? The third brother just said he was scratched, and even chopped off a few of them. Could it be that the Yuhuayuan wanted to kill people to silence them?"

"I'm afraid it's hard to find the path in the palace. After getting rid of those people, the guards around me found me. Thinking that the sixth younger brother was in the palace of the mother and concubine, I was worried and rushed to the Yaohua Palace. When I passed the Yaoguang Palace , I saw a few sneaky figures, thought it was those people, and ordered to kill them. Who knows, I found some interesting things from them. If the father wants it, the son will present it."

"Your Majesty, the eighth princess has arrived." The emperor was about to speak when he was interrupted.

"Your majesty, Jingyue, let Jingyue in first." Ten Niang tightened the sleeves of the emperor, and there was a wave in her always calm eyes.

"Princess Xuan Ba ​​enters the palace." Xiao Luzi shouted.

Following the Eighth Princess Jingyue into the palace was Lu Jing, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, and a group of Imperial Forest Army.

The eighth princess, Jingyue, seemed to be frightened, her whole body was trembling slightly, tears were shining in her apricot eyes, and she knelt down to the emperor and Mrs. Shujia.

"Father, mother concubine, Jingyue, Jingyue is incompetent." Jingyue fell to the ground, "Someone hijacked my son to go to Yaoguang Hall while my son was going to change clothes. It was the fourth sister, it was the fourth sister who saved my daughter. She told the son-in-law to run to the Buddhist hall of the emperor's grandmother. She said that the location was remote, and the son-in-law hid there and did not dare to come out until Commander Lu came. Father, father, send someone to rescue the fourth sister."

"Concubine Hui, are the four imperial daughters here?" Even though the emperor knew about the situation, he still had to pretend to be worried and asked.

"The fourth princess has a low fever today, so she didn't attend the dinner." Chen Minxian replied, but she sighed in her heart, what a pity, this fourth princess.

The good Chen family doesn't want to marry, but just like her mother and concubine, they can't think about it.Going the wrong way, being plotted to sacrifice.

"Go and search Yaoguang Palace." The Eighth King said to the people behind him.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report." Lu Jing suddenly said, and the emperor gave him a high look. He is a smart man who knows how to seize the opportunity.

"Speak." The emperor let go of the hands of the people around him who were holding onto the sleeves, and then said to Lu Jing after pulling, "Did Commander Lu discover something?"

"The Yulin army under my minister found traces of fighting and corpses near the Yaoguang Hall, and searched the Yaoguang Hall. The fourth princess was found unconscious in the main hall, and two people were also unconscious in the sleeping hall."

"Who are the two of you? Do you know?" The emperor's words carried an imperceptible danger.

"The two men were disheveled, hugged each other and passed out on the bed. Judging from the situation in the room, they should have been drugged. The clothes of the palace maids were thrown on the ground. I think they are palace maids from some palace. It is an adult in the envoy group. The Imperial Forest Army is only responsible for the safety of the emperor, and does not go to court. I don’t know who that adult is."

"Where are the three?" The emperor was satisfied with the commander's answer.

"The fourth princess has moved to the side hall, and the Yaoguang Hall is surrounded by the Imperial Forest Army. Waiting for your instructions."

"Since that's the case, please invite the envoys from all over the world to drink tea and check slowly. If there is one missing person, you can always find out." The emperor glanced at the envoys, and all the envoys were silent.

"Father, don't bother, just let the adults in the Ministry of Rites who are in charge of receiving the envoys recognize it." Mu Yao suggested with a smile.

As soon as he said that, all the people in the Ministry of Rites froze. The Prince of Liangjun was taking revenge for embarrassing his mother and concubine a few days ago.

The members of the envoys made such a big fuss in the palace, and they really couldn't get away with it.This time, he stabbed directly in front of the emperor, reminding the emperor of the mistakes made by the Ministry of Rites.

The emperor waved his hand, and the Minister of Rites led his subordinates to identify the envoys.

Within a short while, it was discovered that a small official named Jiulang was missing from the southern border envoys.

Mu Yao searched the hall, and smiled gratefully at the Kunsang envoy Mo Ku and his wife.

"Since you have found someone in your country, it is no longer suitable for us to stay. This is Emperor Liang's family affairs, and Kunsang will not participate." Moku first saluted and asked to leave.

"Your envoy is being polite, Xiao Wu, and I will send you all back to the inn to settle down." The emperor's words clearly meant that the inn would be surrounded until the emperor found out the truth.

The envoys of the envoys and their families resigned one after another, and only the remaining envoys from Southern Xinjiang stood in the hall.

"Commander Lu took this envoy to bring back the lost one. Concubine Hui went to get the roster of palace attendants, and sent someone to Yaoguang Palace to find out the real identity of the palace lady. The others should leave." The emperor waved his hand and said After the performance in the evening, when the net was closed at the end, I was really exhausted.

"Lord Lu sent someone to go with me to Chengqian Palace to get the roster of palace personnel." Mrs. Huimin Chen Minxian turned to the concubine and said, "All the other sisters go back. All the palaces will guard their doors tonight, and nothing will happen. Disturbed Your Majesty."

Huimin's wife, Chen Minxian, took a look at Mrs. Shujia's mother and son, and led them back.

"Yao'er gave your younger brother to your mother and concubine, and they all went back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation with me. Show me the interesting things you found."

"Father, my son lied. There is nothing interesting. Now that I think about it, that thing should be the obstacle-avoiding bell of the son of Nanjiang, which was deliberately carried by those people to confuse his son."

"Son of Southern Border?" The emperor's eyes flashed with a dangerous light.

"Yes, the eldest son of Nanjiang, nine in the family. Nanluo borders Nanjiang, and the [-]th counties of Nanluo have spied on information about Nanjiang. According to the information, the eldest son of Nanjiang changed his nickname to Jiulang."

"The one from Yaoguang Palace?" Ten Niang asked.

"No, that person can't be the eldest son of Nanjiang, but can only be a small official named Jiulang. The one who is with her can't be the second princess of Daliang, but can only be Hong Dan, the big palace maid next to Miao Shunhua in Yihua Palace. You Do mother and son understand?"
