Uncle Nine

Chapter 276
Zhao Shuo held the late emperor's gold medal to avoid death, and the late emperor's last edict forbidding anyone to enter Prince Rui's residence to handle cases, so he became a favorite.Many forces have set their sights on this young man who seems to be in his teens, but has a mature mind.

But who is Zhao Shuo, who can block Dongfang Yue in the golden palace and support Zhao Lu to ascend the throne? At a young age, he knew how to draw forces to fight against Dongfang Yue, but he did it without leaving any traces.Such caution and prudence, even the old fritters who have been in the officialdom are within their capabilities.

But Zhao Shuo did a good job. On the surface, he put on a rare and confused look, but secretly he had already started to plan everything.

There is a lot of strategizing, just sit and watch the wind and clouds surge.

It's just that there was one thing that gave Zhao Shuo a headache all the time.

That is, whether it is princes, nobles, wealthy merchants, or even the Queen Mother and Regent Dongfang Yue, they all racked their brains to send women to Prince Rui's Mansion.Since ancient times, women have been used as sharp weapons, and beauty tricks have been tried and tested.

In terms of emotions, Zhao Shuo has always been restrained, and even in order to keep his mind clear forever, he forbids himself to drink even a little bit of alcohol.Alcohol can make people relax their vigilance, and beauty can make people depraved. For him, it is a fatal danger.

"Master, it's not a problem to push people away all the time." Li Huan frowned, "This is the eighth time this month, I send it every day, push it every day, there is no excuse after a long time. It is true that the time has come for the establishment of a princess, sooner or later Prince Rui's residence will have a woman. The brothers above the prince, at the age of the prince, they have already started a family. "

Zhao Shuo took a sip of tea and looked helplessly at the blue sky, "If a country doesn't become a country, how can we call it home?"

"I heard that the regent intends to marry the Ye family." Li Huan said.

Zhao Shuo squinted at him, "Ye Family?"

"The eldest daughter of the Ye family, Ye Zhiqiu." Li Huan bowed his head, "It is said that she has both talent and appearance, and she has a very good complexion."

"Marry Dongfang Xu?" Zhao Shuo asked.

Li Huan nodded, "Yes."

"That's a talented woman, very good." Zhao Shuo walked slowly to the side of the fish pond, and took a look at the extremely happy fish in the pond.

Li Huan frowned, "Isn't your lord in a hurry?"

"What are you in a hurry for?" Zhao Shuo smiled.

Li Huan said, "My lord, Ye Guangyao has the military power in his hands, so he is a general after all. If he marries with the Prince Regent's House, the lord's chances of winning will be reduced."

"I said before, do you agree with their marriage?" Zhao Shuo asked back.

Li Huan was puzzled, "What is the meaning of this, my lord?"

"This king is a good person, and I never do things that are difficult for others. I heard that Miss Ye's personality is extremely stubborn, and she is a spoiled master." Zhao Shuo smiled meaningfully, "Although this woman is both talented and beautiful, It's a pity that people who are too stubborn and too strong always lack something in their hearts."

"What's missing?" Li Huan became more and more confused.

Zhao Shuo sat down slowly, and began to catch fish seriously, "There is a saying in ancient times, the rigidity is easy to break, and the softness can overcome the rigidity."

Li Huanzhong was stunned, "My lord means—"

"Understood?" Zhao Shuo took a deep breath and lowered his eyes to look at his fish.

"Understood." Li Huan saluted, turned around and left.

As long as you know.

A boudoir girl, ignorant of a girl's heart, is the most unbearable to be teased.What's more, in the face of such an outstanding young man, Pian Pian's son has peach blossom eyes, and his brilliance shines from it.Even a frost-cold heart can gradually melt away in the warm sun of March.

You have to take care of yourself, and be careful.

The sun was shining that day, and when I looked back that day, I happened to meet in front of Linjiang Tower, chatting and laughing happily and expressing my heart.The wind blows over the temples of beauties and stirs up the hearts of beauties. You have to look at the beauty's face, who knows what beauties want?

As agreed, once we see each other in three or two days, we will become lovesick in four or five days.

I hate lovesickness the most in this life, only because of the endless lovesickness.

I love lovesickness the most in this life, and I only wish endless lovesickness without heart.

The romantic achievement between eyebrows is unforgettable with just one glance, and now it is even more haunting and dreamy, and I can't let go of it anymore.Even under the imperial decree, marriage is bestowed, but it is not necessary to obey.

Ye Zhiqiu refused to marry Dongfang Xu, even if he heard that Dongfang Xu was a rare and beautiful man, but the rumors about Dongfang Xu killing important court officials were extremely terrifying.

As a woman, she naturally does not want to associate with tyrannical people.

What's more, there is a personable and dignified Prince Rui Zhao Shuo in front of him.

No matter in terms of talent, appearance or status, Zhao Shuo was not inferior to Dongfang Xu in the slightest, the difference was only an imperial decree.

On that day in front of Linjiang Tower, Zhao Shuo failed to attend the appointment as scheduled, but asked Li Huan to forward a letter to Ye Zhiqiu.Li Huan had a sad and regretful face, "My lord is unwell, so I can't come here. This is what my lord asked me to hand over to you personally."

Ye Zhiqiu's eyes turned red, "Do you have something to say, my lord?"

Li Huan sighed softly, "My lord said, there is no destiny in this life, and we will meet again in the next life. If the blessings are not small, I hope I can spend the rest of my life with the lady." Then, he looked around cautiously, and said in a low voice, "In this letter There is a pill, which is a medicine for feigning death. The young lady can take it on the wedding night, so that she can protect herself without resisting the decree. When the medicine takes effect, the prince will quietly send someone to bring the young lady back. If the young lady does not want to, That's all for now. From now on, you will be your young wife, and the prince will be alone and will never marry again."

Hearing these words, Ye Zhiqiu choked up, "My lord treats me so affectionately, how can I fail him. Just tell him, I will definitely do it, and I will live up to it in this life."

After finishing speaking, Ye Zhiqiu hurriedly left.

Li Huan breathed a sigh of relief, and seeing Ye Zhiqiu leave, he quickly turned back to Prince Rui's residence.

In the distance, Dongfang Xu stood coldly.

"My lord, why did Prince Rui's mansion get on with Miss Ye's family? There seems to be a letter just now." Yun Guan frowned, "Is there any fraud in it?"

"Keep an eye on Ye Zhiqiu, if this marriage is wrong, no one will be able to get it right with his adoptive father." Dongfang Xu narrowed his dangerous eyes, feeling a little strange, but he couldn't tell what tricks Zhao Shuo would play.

No matter what Zhao Shuo does, he never reveals anything, so it's really not easy to find out his loopholes.

But now, as long as Dongfang Xu can marry Ye Zhiqiu, the rest - he is not afraid of Zhao Shuo playing tricks.

Unfortunately, everyone overlooked one thing.

The initiative in this matter rests with Ye Zhiqiu, and although the remote control Zhao Shuo has captured everyone's attention, people have completely ignored Ye Zhiqiu.

A spoiled child who can do anything.

Believe it or not.

The Prince Regent's Mansion married with great fanfare, and the Ye family's happily married daughter did not know that Ye Zhiqiu had already quietly hidden the pills in his waist.Dongfang Xu took off his white clothes for the first time and changed into a bright red wedding dress. He didn't even think about raising his eyebrows. He just wanted to marry a woman who would be useful to the Prince Regent's palace according to Dongfang Yue's wishes.

A cold person treats everyone coldly, including himself.

Unexpectedly, that night, under the red candle, the beauty disappeared.With a scream, I saw Ye Zhiqiu in a happy dress on the bed, with his eyes closed, lying on the red mattress, motionless.

By the time someone came in, she had no breath, no heartbeat, no breath of life.

Before Dongfang Xu's wedding dress was fully warmed, he had already become a widower.Before the red candle burns out, it's time to replace it with a white candle.

God knows, at this moment, Dongfang Xu has hatred in his heart, he grits his teeth with hatred, and only calls out Zhao Shuo's name in a low voice.

But you don't have evidence, how can you break into Prince Rui's Palace?

Furthermore, on the second day after all, Ye Zhiqiu's body disappeared.

Everyone's words, I am afraid that this Prince Rui cannot be together in life, but must be together in death, right?But Prince Rui's mansion was not allowed to enter at will, Dongfang Xu had no choice but to let Dongfang Yue decide, and stopped Zhao Shuo's chariot at the gate of the palace.

Zhao Shuo didn't shy away, glanced at the fierce Dongfang Yue, and said calmly, "Everyone is dead, what else do you want? Go in alive, come out dead. This king gave her up to fulfill you, but you killed her. This king has not asked you to settle this account, but you have sent it to your door? What do you want now? The corpse is in my Prince Rui's residence, this king does not intend to give it to you, and I will not give it to you. Shall we just let it go? "

Dongfang Yue naturally knew Zhao Shuo's temperament, since Ye Zhiqiu was dead anyway, it was useless to him, it would be better to let Ye Guangyao hate Zhao Shuo even more, hatred and interests can generally make people form alliances, and marry Maybe it will have the same effect.

Compared to Dongfang Yue, how could Zhao Shuo be his opponent at this moment, but Dongfang Yue didn't dare to kill Zhao Shuo. If he really killed Zhao Shuo in this way, the people in the world, even the court, and the troops in Zhao Shuo's hands would be killed. I'm afraid there will be chaos.

However, capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes are hard to forgive.

Zhao Shuo was not beaten to death, but he was beaten half to death by Dongfang Yue, and he lay on the bed for a month without getting out of bed.

Ye Zhiqiu's bones were left behind in Yiye Zhiqiu, outside only Dao Rui Wang Zhao Shuo had such a deep affection for this woman that he couldn't share the same bed in life, and he had to be with her day and night after death, even if it was a beauty with white bones or a pink skeleton, he didn't care.

Later, it was unknown who spread the news that Prince Rui Zhao Shuo disliked women and disliked women since his EQ.

Regarding this, Zhao Shuo just smiled, "That's great, Prince Rui's residence has no heirs and no women, so this king will not be bound by emotions, nor will there be any fetters. Those faces will be sent in as soon as they are sent in." Well, it’s better to just eat and drink, it’s better than women. Men don’t have too much emotional sustenance to men, but if they are to women, they will inevitably be sincere. This king, is he a man after all? .”

"The heart is a thing, who would have expected it? At least, this king doesn't want to follow in the footsteps of the emperor's brother, let alone subvert the world because of a woman."

When he said this, Li Huan only felt regretful, "My lord has decided to be single from now on, but it's too unfair to you. Why does the lord need to sacrifice in this world?"

Zhao Shuo stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the clear wind and moon with a smile, "How happy is life, what is there to fear in death, the so-called sacrifice is just my own choice! Since I chose this path, no matter what the result is, I will ask for it. Yes. Since that’s the case, it’s frank.”

Li Huan nodded, "I swear allegiance to the lord to the death!"

It is good to be without the shackles of a woman, but it is also lonely and empty.For a long month, walking alone and living alone, for the sake of the promise made to the dead emperor brother.

For the sake of the so-called world of the Zhao family, he almost did everything he could.

The glorious name of Prince Rui seems to be the position of the emperor's uncle who holds great power, as if all the glory in the world hangs on his head.People in the world can only see the light, but they fail to see the murderous intent hidden behind it.

He overcame thorns and thorns, never for himself.

Until I met her—that tomboy named Xia Yu.

In her body, there is no trace of the charm and tenderness that should belong to a woman, like the weeds on the side of the road, not even wild flowers.She can support herself, as if the sky is falling, she can find a crack in the ground to get out and survive.He has never seen that kind of woman who is happy with the situation and chooses to survive no matter what the situation is.

I am used to seeing square and square women, but now I feel a little rare for such an alternative.

Not pretentious, like him, hate intrigue.

But I can't see the injustice in the world, so when I encounter it, I will try my best to do it.Although the means are base, and occasionally the rogue nature is revealed, but he is her truth.

Although the women in the boudoir are good, where can they breathe freely?
She can't read big characters, and she doesn't understand etiquette at all, but she has a pure heart and treats people with sincerity.Even if we meet by chance, we can call you brothers and sisters, and if there are difficulties, we can help you.

Zhao Shuo thought, there are not many women in the world who can do this.And what I can meet, she alone is enough.He is not someone who will shrink back, so he has no intention of letting go when he meets him.

The feeling of being filled in a heart that had been empty for more than 20 years made him unable to let go.Even though he had made all the plans for her in advance, he had no regrets when faced with the result of a complete failure.

A wise man will not let hatred blind his heart.

Because in this world, love is more worth holding in your hands than hate.

Happiness is always more important than pain.

The moment he left the capital, Zhao Shuozhi felt extremely relaxed.Feel free in body and mind, from now on, the mountain will be high and the river will be long, and you will no longer have to worry about it, and you don't have to seek anything day and night.

All the glory and wealth in this world are inferior to her, with a slight smile, her eyebrows are like the moon.

----------------

Summer.

Xie Huan lay on the wicker chair covered with fox fur with his stomach straight, a handkerchief covering his eyes, basking in the sun.Qingyun slowly rocked the rattan chair beside him, Yuan Hao who was not far away stopped in his tracks, and signaled the servants behind him not to follow, he lifted his clothes and tried to lower the sound of footsteps.

I was afraid, and frightened my empress.

Qingyun snickered, understood Yuan Hao's meaning, and stood aside after saluting a little.

Yuan Hao replaced Qing Yun, gently shaking the rattan chair.

Ever since she became pregnant, Xie Huan was often tired and sleepy. At night, the baby in her stomach was so noisy that she couldn't sleep well. During the day, she was better, and she squinted whenever she had time.

"Yun'er, do you think Qingluan has given birth? Why is there no news? I don't know if it's a son or a daughter." Xie Huan said with his eyes closed.

Qingyun whispered beside him, "Madam, there is no news yet, so it should be soon. However, whether it is a son or a daughter, it is a good thing. Now that Dayan is peaceful, I think Hou Ye and Mrs. Hou will work harder to extend the Xie family. of."

Xie Huan paused, breathing evenly, as if he was asleep or half asleep.

After a long time, he opened his mouth again, "Do you think it's better to be a boy or a girl?"

Qing Yun was stunned, glanced at the joyful Yuan Hao, and could only smile, "As long as it is born by the empress, the emperor will like it."

"What do I want him to like? It's enough for me to like." The words were said like this, but they were said with a smile on his lips, against his will, "It would be great if it was a girl."

"Your Majesty likes girls?" Qing Yun frowned.

There are no other concubines in this harem. If the master cannot bear a son for the emperor, who will he give it to in the summer?Is it possible that the queen has to ascend the throne?
But Qingyun thought about it again, since the master can conceive once, he can conceive a second time too.This time it's a girl, the next time it's not complete, it's a son. From now on—Qingyun thought, the cycle goes on and on, will the master spend the rest of his life in pregnancy and childbirth, childbirth and pregnancy?
There is no way, who made my son-in-law, the emperor, an infatuated person, and the huge Sangong and Liuyuan are now just decorations.

With a sigh, Xie Huan frowned slightly and said, "I know too. You, too, have the same nostrils as the emperor, wanting to have a son with me. The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty played a book from time to time. He thought I didn't know, but I actually knew. There is no one in Sangong Sixth Courtyard who can talk to me, except you. Sometimes I think about it, it’s really pitiful that the harem is so deserted.”

Yuan Hao frowned, thinking to himself: If you get a cheap deal, you'd still be a good boy.

If there were more people in the harem, how could she, the queen, be so leisurely?
"Sometimes I really wonder, is there something wrong with the emperor?" Xie Huan continued.

Qing Yun coughed lightly, Yuan Hao glared at her, signaling her not to say anything.

Ever since she got pregnant, Xie Huan also felt that her mouth had become broken, but she couldn't control it, this harem was more boring than a military camp.At any rate, in the military camp, you can still fight teeth with your brothers, and occasionally you can ride horses and gallop to compete.Now in the harem, except for eunuchs and maids, there is no one to find fault with, it is really unbearable.

"Why do you think he is staring at me alone? So many princes and ministers sent the stunning beauties to him, and this kid even rewarded them directly, and made them think behind closed doors for a month. Now, although the ministers Shang Zou, but he didn’t dare to send women directly into the palace anymore, for fear of losing his wife and losing his army.” Xie Huan sighed, “Why do you think I lost my mind at the beginning? The harem has become a pool of stagnant water. This pool of water, at least give me some waves!"

The more she talked, the more irritable she became, and she babbled with her eyes closed.

"Okay, don't shake it!" While speaking, she reached out to grab Qing Yun's hand.

The next moment, she suddenly took off the veil covering her eyes, "Your Majesty?"

Embarrassment suddenly appeared on her face, she opened her mouth and forced a smile, "When did you come?"

"I've always been here." Yuan Hao smiled and helped her sit down, facing him, when there was no outsider, she never had to salute.He said, you are my wife, you are like an ordinary couple, there is no reason for couples to meet and salute.

"Damn girl." Xie Huan gave Qingyun a white look, and Qingyun ran away with a smirk.

"I don't care if it's a son or a daughter, as long as you gave birth to me, it's the best." Yuan Hao clenched her hand that was about to be withdrawn.He also didn't expect that his underhanded skills were so profound that he was sure to hit every move.That night of Spring Festival, she directly stuffed the child into her stomach.

Xie Huan raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, "I didn't notice that you were so glib before, but now you are even more powerful. Your slickness can even catch up with that of Prince Rui's Mansion!"

Yuan Hao held her hand, didn't mind her teasing at all, just laughed and said, "No way, who will let the harem be the only one who is the only one? No one cares about coaxing me anymore, I have to spend my time coaxing You?"

"Then you go and call people back, and save me—"

Before she finished speaking, Yuan Hao sighed softly, "Where can I find it?"

"Outside, inside, there are either men or women in this world. Could it be that you want men too?" Xie Huan glared at him.

Yuan Hao hesitated for a moment, "If I find a man to enter the palace, why don't you let me train a Xie family army?" He shook his head in distress, "No, no, there is no reason why the empress should hang out with men all day long. .”

Xie Huan withdrew his hand, "There's a lot of nonsense, you obviously can't beat me, and you are afraid that there are too many women in the harem, I will tear down your harem, so I asked for peace and disbanded the Sangong and Sixth Courtyard."

"I—" Yuan Hao thought for a while, "Have you ever lost again?"

Xie Huan was startled, "How can you be so forgetful? When did you win?"

He pointed at Xie Huan's stomach, "Isn't this a win? I'm on top, you're on the bottom. If you lose, will there still be this kid?"

Xie Huan has fought in the battlefield for many years, and has never seen anything in the world, but she is still a woman after all, she couldn't help but blush when she first heard this, and said, "Shameless."

Yuan Hao didn't feel ashamed, but smiled and said, "In this life, it's very good to treat you indecently alone. No matter how well I, the emperor, do, at any rate, when the world mentions me in the future, they must say one thing, this gentleman in this life The only empress is the emperor who has been infatuated through the ages. The word infatuation is always more comfortable than being romantic."

Hearing this, Xie Huan stared at him fixedly, and was speechless for a while.

"What are you doing looking at me like this, Daxia man, you have something to say, unlike you guys from Dayan, who like to beat around the bush. With me, you can say whatever you want, and you can do whatever you want. I'm used to you." That's it." Yuan Hao just stared at her like this, until Xie Huan panted slightly and turned his head away.

His sight seemed to be three points sharper than a knife, so that she, a female general who fought on the battlefield, also dodged.

She can meet the enemy's blade, until she dies.

But the soft knife stabbed gently in the heart, which hurt a little, but the pain was worth it.

"Why don't you talk?" He frowned, "What's wrong?"

Xie Huan supported his waist and got up, "I'm too lazy to be glib with you."

"Where are you going?" Yuan Hao hurriedly stepped forward to help her.

"I'm not disabled. Thousands of troops have come here, but why can't I have a child?" Xie Huan pushed him away, "No need." But after taking two steps, she suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Yuan Hao was stunned.

Xie Huan suddenly frowned, "It seems to hurt a bit."

Yuan Hao's eyes widened, and he immediately stepped forward, hugged her horizontally, and shouted loudly, "Come here, find the imperial physician!"

"I didn't—" Xie Huan was about to struggle, but there was a sudden sharp pain in his abdomen, "It hurts!"

Yuan Hao didn't know where the strength came from, and ran towards the bedroom with Xie Huan in his arms like crazy, "I'm going to give birth, I'm going to give birth, the imperial doctor—seek the imperial doctor! Come!"
