concubine does not accompany

The emperor smoothed things over with a smile and said, "Uncle Guo is also eager to love his daughters, so he came all the way here. Presumably, he should have settled his business affairs before coming here. Isn't that right, Uncle Guo?"

Seeing that the emperor excused himself, Uncle Guo quickly nodded in agreement.

The emperor smiled at Murong Jin: "Uncle Guo's leaving his post without authorization can be discussed later. At present, the officials in the court are discussing in private that you ordered Princess Yun to be imprisoned privately, and now it is rumored that people from the Ministry of Justice After hearing your order to abuse the emperor's private behavior, everyone is quite critical of the emperor's behavior. Naturally, I know that the emperor will not issue orders to abuse the private behavior, but I can't stop the group of people in the Ministry of Punishment from acting on their own. In order to please the emperor, you deliberately did such a thing. Why don't you let her go first, if she still doesn't repent, it won't be too late to punish her severely!"

For the sake of what the emperor said, as a courtier, he should always give the emperor a little bit of face.But Murong Jin just refused to give in.He said with a leisurely smile: "Brother Huang is too worried. Since I returned to Beijing at the age of 15, what has I done that has not provoked criticism from civil and military officials? I really don't care about their criticism. Brother Huang If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first!"

As he spoke, he didn't wait for the emperor to speak, and directly pulled Yun Qinghuan away.

When he walked to the door, he bumped into a hurried little eunuch. After the little eunuch came in, he said over and over again, "Your Majesty, I am overjoyed. The imperial doctor just asked for the pulse of the empress Yipin, and learned that the empress has already had a baby." One month pregnant."

This news made the emperor's anger from being suppressed by Murong Jin dissipate in an instant. He stood up abruptly and trotted down, "Really? Xi'er is really happy?"

The little eunuch nodded quickly, "What you said back to the emperor is absolutely true! When the empress got the news, she immediately called the servants to come over to announce the good news to the emperor."

"Okay, it's really a happy event!" The emperor was overjoyed, "Xiao Luzi, pass on my will, enter the Yi concubine as Yi concubine, and choose an auspicious day for the canonization ceremony." The Palace of Yanxi Palace where Yun Qingxi is located has gone.

Uncle Guo saw that he came to sue, not only failed, but also heard such extremely bad news, he was so angry that his beard cocked up.

After glaring at Murong Jin fiercely, he walked away angrily.

Yun Qinghuan looked at him, his face turned green from anger, and he was in a good mood, holding Murongjin's arm with a smile, and said: "I see, this country's uncle has time to worry about Princess Yun here, so it's better to help him." The eldest daughter is worried. The emperor didn't like to see the empress, but now our concubine Yi, oh no, it's the concubine Yi who is pregnant with the dragon species again. Have a great time!"

Murong Jin stretched out his hand to scratch her nose, and said with a doting smile: "It's not because you, a girl, taught her well. I didn't think Concubine Yi was so conspicuous before, but since entering the palace, it's like a different person. Not only this dynasty Women are not good at riding and shooting, they are also good at singing, dancing, piano and chess, and they can also say a few words in poetry and prose. Such a woman is rare outside, let alone in the palace. No wonder the emperor dotes on her so much .”

What Murong Jin said is correct. Yun Qingxi used to only like to write and draw. Although it is not useless, but if a woman wants to catch a man, especially a man surrounded by women, she must have the ability to attract men. The place.It is best to be a treasure, which makes men feel more and more fascinated by digging.

Therefore, Yun Qinghuan let Yun Qingxi learn a lot of things, and Yun Qingxi is also smart, and he was able to learn all these things in a few months, not to mention, it can be regarded as a master.So now she naturally has the capital to be favored by the emperor.

I heard that since Yun Qingxi entered the palace, the emperor hasn't been to the other concubines much. As for the queen, it seems that he hasn't even entered the palace gate for nearly a month.This shows that the emperor's love for Yun Qingxi is extraordinary.

In the early morning of the next day, several officials wrote a letter to impeach Murong Jin, who had already resigned from office, but still interfered in the government and bullied others.One of them was the official who wrote to impeach Concubine Li's father for taking bribes.

The emperor didn't accept any of them, and rejected all the papers on the spot.

But in the next few days, the momentum intensified, and some people even knelt in front of the imperial study room, asking the emperor to release Princess Yun immediately, and issued an order that Murong Jin would not be allowed to interfere in the government affairs.

"What should we do with this matter?" The emperor also had a headache.

"Emperor, according to the wishes of the Ai family, this matter must be resolved as soon as possible, so as not to intensify, and it will be broken if it gets out of hand. It is strange to say that Prince Jin is going to resign himself, but now he has to intervene in everything. Yes It's time for him to understand his identity." The queen mother sitting opposite spoke.

"But..." the emperor was obviously still hesitant, "He is a living Bodhisattva in the hearts of the common people. If I issue such an order at this time, I am afraid that many troubles will arise among the people."

"What does the emperor mean by disregarding the objections of the officials?" The queen mother seemed to have tolerated it for a long time, and now she seized this opportunity and was unwilling to let go.

"Hey!" The emperor sighed deeply, "If this order is issued, the people will be uneasy, and if this order is not issued, the court will be uneasy. I am really in a difficult situation!"

"Empress Dowager, Father, in my opinion, those officials who have written to protest must be pulled out and punished with a cane!" Murong Mingxuan stayed by the side and did not speak. Seeing that the two were still undecided, this Only then did I speak.

But when he opened his mouth, both the emperor and the queen mother were shocked.

"What do you mean by that?" asked the Emperor.

"That's right, even if we can't move him clearly, we don't need to punish those officials who speak up. If we really do this, who will dare to tell the truth in the future?" The Queen Mother was also puzzled.

But Murong Mingxuan said: "Empress Dowager, Father, don't you all see the problem? Those who wrote the letter, and those who kneeled at the door to protest, are any officials above the third rank? In other words, those people kneeling at the door There is nothing to be afraid of at all. Those in important positions in the court did not express any opinions on the actions of the emperor's uncle. Some of them did not dare, some of them were wise to protect themselves, and some of them simply regarded him as this The ruler of the country is devoted to him wholeheartedly. In my opinion, this last group of people accounts for the vast majority."

After listening to his analysis, the emperor and queen mother suddenly realized.

"From what you've said, it's true. Even Prince Yun's mansion didn't come to protest." The emperor continued.

The Queen Mother frowned, "So, we can't touch him again this time?"

Murong Mingxuan nodded, "Yes! If the imperial father's edict is really issued, not only the people will be uneasy, but the imperial court will not be uneasy. Now that the imperial father treats the emperor's uncle with the same respect as before, those important officials in the court will treat the imperial court even more. Loyal. If the father shows any dissatisfaction with the gods in their hearts, they will definitely stand by the emperor's side without hesitation. Therefore, now is definitely not the time to move him openly."

The emperor also knew that what Murong Mingxuan said was reasonable, but he was a little unwilling after all, "Is our family just so useless to be oppressed by an outsider?"

Isn't it useless?Others say that he is a high-ranking emperor, but since the day he ascended the throne, he has never been able to be independent, and even the throne was given to him by that man.Yes, he admitted that that man is really capable, without him there would be no current Shengxuan dynasty, how could there be him as emperor?

But no matter what, he is sitting in this position anyway, he should be the ruler of this country.So he couldn't tolerate his own country without his own control.What's even more hateful is that he is over half a hundred years old, and he doesn't know when he will die, but that man is about the same age as his son. Could it be that after he dies, his son will still not be able to be independent after he becomes the throne?Do you still have to be controlled by that man?

He is not reconciled!

But right now, there's nothing he can do.At least for now, he can only act in secret, absolutely not in the open.

Murong Mingxuan comforted him and said: "Father, we will always have a chance. As long as we wait, we will definitely have a chance to get rid of him. If you don't do it clearly, you will come secretly. I don't believe it. He is really so fateful." , can escape every time.”

The emperor nodded, but was very puzzled by Murong Mingxuan's attitude, "Xuan'er, didn't you object to us doing this before? Why did you change your mind now?"

Murong Mingxuan said: "I just can't understand what he did. When the emperor appointed him as regent, he refused to accept it, and he resigned from the official position, unwilling to be regent again. But in fact, he He is still secretly controlling everything in this country. If he wanted to be the emperor, he would have just ascended the throne himself, but he wants power and pretends to have no desires. I really can't stand it!"

Well, such a high-sounding reason is naturally an excuse, he just hates, hates that man for marrying the woman he loves.I hated that man for telling him grandly that the remaining woman from the brothel could not be a princess, but turned around and married her as a princess.

Therefore, he wants to take back what was taken away by that man!

The beloved woman, and the country that will belong to him in the future, all must be taken back!

Because he saw the situation clearly, even if the emperor wanted to dampen Murong Jin's spirit, he did not dare to act rashly. In the end, as Murong Mingxuan suggested, he dragged all the officials kneeling in the imperial study room to protest. Slabs.Those officials are usually civil servants who can only play tricks. After this cane punishment, all their buttocks blossomed, and one or two old and weak ones couldn't resist, and died within a few days after returning from the beating.

After this cane punishment, the court's remarks about Murong Jin's interference in government affairs were completely eliminated.As for the life and death of Princess Yun, no one dared to mention a single word.
