Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 472 Discussion
King Sui was not at home that day, and went to a famous temple to worship the Buddha. When he returned to King Sui's mansion, he heard about Mrs. Yang's visit.

He was a little unhappy, so he complained to his wife: "Didn't it be agreed that this old woman would not come to see the children anymore? Why did she come again? She was even allowed to talk to her mother alone! In case she What if I taught Chu Niang some tricks that are not on the table?"

Concubine Dou carefully inspected the newly-made gold jewelry on the tray in front of her, and said casually: "My lord is not at home, my concubine Si is not feeling well, she has taken medicine to rest. If the king let someone in, what else can others say? Don’t look for the concubine, what kind of person is the concubine? Can you stop people from getting close? Why don’t they scold the concubine to death later?”

When Sui Wang heard this, he felt a little embarrassed.He had scolded his stepmother like this before, and he didn't feel that he had misunderstood anyone.But in the past two years, he gradually realized that he was being used by his son as a gunman, and the purpose was only to destroy the prestige and dignity of his step-mother in the palace.The stepwife has her own difficulties, anyway, although she has spoken harshly in the past few years, she has never really hurt the eldest son's family. If she loses her temper a little, as a husband, he can bear it.Who told him to wrong her?

King Sui slowed down his tone: "What did the old woman say to the children again? There are so many people in the west courtyard, no one heard it?"

Concubine Dou said: "Old Madam Yang claimed that she had not come to visit the heir king because she was sick, but in fact A Jian had only been to Yang's house a few days ago, and she was not there at all. Today she He coaxed Ah Jian to say that he was going out to see a suitable family for their brothers and sisters. In fact, the concubine had already heard that Mrs. Yang was trying to follow Yang Guozhong's footsteps and wanted to transfer her sons back to Beijing. Come here!"

King Sui frowned: "Yang Guozhong? There are many rumors about his recent situation outside. Some say that his illness has almost recovered, and he will take over as soon as Li Linfu dies; Some people said that he had offended the saint. The saint did not intend to kill him directly because of the face of the noble concubine, but wanted him to die of illness naturally. Therefore, all the imperial doctors sent to see him would not prescribe serious medicine that could cure the disease. There are so many sayings, no one knows which one is true, but Yang Guozhong has not appeared in front of people for many days, but it is a fact."

Concubine Dou said: "My lord doesn't care whether he is really sick or not. It has nothing to do with our family anyway. Yang Guozhong is a close minister of a saint. If he is sick, he will die or live. A saint will worry about it. If a saint wants to save people , Aren’t you afraid that it won’t be cured? If it can’t be cured, it’s because of his fate, he can’t bear the great blessing bestowed by the saint.”

Sui Wang faintly felt that this was the truth, but he couldn't say it clearly, so he waved his hand: "Forget it, his life and death have nothing to do with us. If he is really seriously ill, and he doesn't come out to provoke others, our family can be more at ease." !" He brought the topic back to the grandchildren, "Let people keep an eye on Chu Niang and the others. They must not let their master and servant step out of the west courtyard, and then extend their hands to Princess Si! Old lady Yang is here today! It's fine if you come here, and from tomorrow onwards, tell the doorkeeper that she must never be let in again! When she comes again, the door just says that the master is not at home and it is inconvenient to receive guests. The heir king asks for instructions! If you even dare to obey the orders of this king, and let that old woman have a chance to make trouble in my palace, the gatekeepers will go and drink the northwest wind! What's the use of them?!"

When King Sui gave an order, the guards on the four gates of King Sui's mansion tensed up, fearing that they would really fall into the hands of the prince.

However, they also whispered in private, wondering how Mrs. Yang offended King Sui and would be banned from visiting by him?Some people think that the Yang family has lost power, and there is a young Yang family who killed the mistress, and the king of Sui detests this ignorant in-laws; The brother and sister Yang Guozhong, who caused the injury to the heir king, belonged to the same family. The Sui king was angry; Mrs. Yang's instigation, so Sui Wang annoyed her... For a while, there were many discussions in the circle of servants, and those who still had contact with the Yang family were also very upset.

For example, Jin Qiao's aunt advised her uncle: "What did I say last time? At that time, I advised you not to spread the word for the eldest lady. If someone finds out, it will definitely not be a good thing. You have to say that the eldest lady will have to do it." The prince loves her, if she offends her, all she needs is for her to say a word in front of the prince, and our current job will be lost. But the prince is so rude to Mrs. Yang, how can he treat his in-laws? The eldest lady can't come out now. As for the West Courtyard, how favored can she be? If she is really favored, she will not be sent to live in the villa for more than a year. In my opinion, let’s let it go. As long as you and I work hard, Princess Si will not Treating us badly, why bother to do some shameless things for the eldest lady? It was really discovered that the eldest lady acted like a spoiled child in front of the prince. At most, she was grounded for a few months and fined to kneel for three or two days. The matter is over, and we But even life is in danger!"

Uncle Jin Qiao hesitated for a while, before saying: "I don't really want to do anything bad for the eldest lady, but to help her tell Mrs. Yang that the sisters have returned to the palace. Now that the errands are over, I will naturally Put your hands away, I didn't do any of those taboo things!"

His wife smirked when she heard the words: "You have passed the message to the Yang family, and that is enough! Do you think I don't know? Then Mrs. Yang came to visit the king and the eldest lady in the palace, and the maid beside her gave Jinqiao a private message. Stuffed something. Although I don’t know what it is, but if they use that thing to do bad things and are found out by the prince, concubine, heiwang and heiwangfei in the future, you will never be able to excuse it! When that day comes, can you still Calling out injustice in front of the nobles, saying that you didn't do anything?!"

"This..." Uncle Jinqiao hesitated again, "But I really didn't do anything! I didn't even know that Mrs. Yang's maid stuffed Jinqiao with something!"

His wife leaned close to his ear and said in a low voice: "We have children, even if we don't care about our children, we should also think about our own lives! Jin Qiao is serving by the eldest lady's side, so it's obvious that she can't get away from her. Or , you just try to persuade her to take the initiative, hand over the bag to Concubine Si, and then explain clearly what Mrs. Yang and the eldest lady want her to do; or... Let us report this matter to Princess Si. Regardless of the eldest lady and the others What do you want to do, anyway, our family is innocent and ignorant, and we helped spread the word before, and we only followed orders."

Uncle Jin Qiao was secretly startled.This is betrayal!Although it is the former master... his wife was born as a servant of the Sui Palace, so he couldn't understand the difficulties of an old man of the Yang family like him, but he couldn't bear it, let alone worry about the safety of his niece?But he was afraid that things would really involve his family, so he hesitated and couldn't make up his mind.

His wife was in a hurry to rush him, wishing to tear his sleeves apart, when suddenly there was noise coming from the direction of the front yard, and then many people came towards them.She hurriedly withdrew her hand and smoothed her husband's sleeves before asking the person, "What's the matter? Look at how flustered you all are!"

"No..." The person who came here also had some unclear relationship with the Yang family, and his face was full of panic and confusion at this moment, "The news I just got from the door is that Yang Zhongcheng... died!"
