Chapter 256
If Princess Ping hadn't been troublesome, the King of Chu would not have known that Princess Chu had a concubine who was so similar to her.Wei Ba Niang is indifferent, gentle and affectionate, but she is more lively than her first sister.After she and that lover left Chang'an, they were sold into the land of fireworks. If it wasn't for her maid who gave her life to save her, and he sent people to follow them all the time, she might have passed away to protect her innocence.

Knowing that she had nowhere to go, the King of Chu placed her in a very secluded Zhuangzi and gave her a brand new identity.Wei Ba Niang stayed in the Zhuangzi and devoted herself to worshiping the Buddha. The appearance of her birth was very similar to that of the former Princess Chu. The King of Chu took good care of her and often enlightened her. Finally, she persuaded her to untie her heart knot and made her fall in love with him.

The two also had a happy time, but the longer they get along, the more he understands that Wei Ba Niang is just Wei Ba Niang, she is in love with all her heart, but she doesn't understand what his heart wants.She doesn't understand him, Princess Chu does understand him, but Princess Chu who understands him doesn't want him to fight.

Now that Wei Baniang is pregnant with a child, this child is like the bloodline between him and Princess Chu. At that time, he and Princess Chu couldn't conceive a child through so much effort. He often thought that if she had a child, maybe she would be able to change her mind , willing to seek a prosperous future for their children.Now that there is no future for wealth and wealth, but the child is here, he only hopes that the child can grow up safely, without being rich and expensive, and a healthy life is enough.

"Will you protect her well?" King Chu looked at King Ping and asked.

"I won't touch her." That's all he can guarantee.

"I have a manor in the south, can you get someone to send her there?"

"I can try."

"Thank you." King Chu bowed seriously.

King Ping helped him up and sighed: "You and I, brothers, should help each other. It's just that the world is difficult and I'm weak, so I can't do much."

"I know."

Why didn't he know that for Uncle Zhang Guo, he and King Jiang's son were not allowed to stay, but he just hoped to hide a little bit of his and Wei's blood from him, and it was a little bit of him. obsession.

On the second day, King Jiang and King Chu's family were exiled from Beijing.The Holy Majesty stood on a high city wall, where he could not see the situation of his brothers walking out of the city gate, but he seemed to clearly see their reluctance and reluctance, and stood on the top of the wall for a long time.

One month later, the boat carrying the families of King Jiang and King Chu capsized in a strong wind while crossing the river, and no one survived on board.When the news spread to Beijing, Concubine De swallowed gold and committed suicide, Concubine Xian couldn't bear the stimulation and went crazy.

The Holy Majesty also remained silent for a long time when he received the news, and he also sent people to investigate, but the people they sent said it was just an accident.He thought of Geng Jieqing who was far away in Pengze, and wanted to send him to investigate, but was stopped by King Ping.

"If you ask him to investigate now, you are sending him to death."

The Holy Majesty looked at King Ping sadly, held his hand and said, "They are all the sons and grandsons of the late emperor, and it was the late emperor who wanted to preserve the Yang family's bloodline. I have driven them out of Chang'an, why did he do this!"

"Cutting weeds and eradicating roots has always been like this." King Ping replied helplessly, and patted his hand, "You have to quickly stand up your own people, I can't get too close to you."

Upon hearing this, the Holy Majesty thumped the table angrily, and said, "This emperor is really aggrieved."

"Let's work hard for a few years." King Ping persuaded.

After talking for a while, King Ping left from the imperial study, and met Uncle Zhang Guo just outside the house.When the two sides met, Zhang Guojiu took a look at him, but he acted like an elder and advised earnestly, "The sage is still too soft-hearted, and the prince is the same. You need to learn more in the future."

"Yes." King Ping replied with a faint smile, his back felt slightly cold when he left.

When he arrived at the mansion, Guanshi Feng, who was new to the mansion, followed him into the study and told him about the murder of Wei Ba Niang and his party.He listened for a long time without saying a word, and only sighed after Feng Guanshi left.It was he who underestimated Uncle Zhang Guo's determination to ensure that one of the two county kings could succeed to the throne, but he would only arouse the dissatisfaction of the Holy Majesty if he acted in this way, and in the end he didn't know where he would suffer.

Yuan Tai was named Queen of Nanyang County, so he had to go out to build a mansion, and Yuan Heng, who had been living in the palace, also had to go out of the palace. The Holy Majesty gave Yuan Heng and Yuan Tai the original Prince's Mansion.

According to the system, the Prince's Mansion is much bigger than the Prince's Mansion. The Holy Majesty asked the Ministry of Industry to divide the original Prince's Mansion into two, and gave Yuan Tai to the side close to the king of the imperial court, and Yuan Heng to the other side.Yuan Heng had been living in the palace before. He knew that the Holy Majesty would move him out of the palace after he succeeded to the throne, but he did not expect to let him live in the original prince's mansion, even though it has now been changed to the county king's mansion. There seemed to be something hidden in his eyes.

As for the king of Nanyang County, others didn't think deeply about it. Many people even forgot that the crown prince had a concubine who had been living in Prince Ping's mansion.Letting him continue to live next to Prince Ping's mansion now, I am afraid that he will lose his affection for Prince Ping's family.Some people also speculated that King Ping had no children before, maybe when he brought the prince and concubine, he meant to treat him as an heir. It was only after Princess Ping gave birth to a son that he lost the intention of adopting him.

In terms of location, the Prince's Mansion was originally closer to the central section of the road than Prince Ping's Mansion, but now it is divided into two, and the better location is naturally the Beichuan County Prince's Mansion on the outside, rather than being sandwiched between two mansions, which is slightly cramped and easily overlooked Nanyang County Prince's Mansion.

Yuan Tai liked this mansion very much. When the Ministry of Industry remodeled the house, it kept the path from the original Prince's Mansion to Ping Wang's Mansion, as if he just moved to a yard a little far away from Ping Wang's Mansion, and did not really move away from Ping Wang's Mansion.

Jia Jia is not happy with this matter, he has moved out from the main courtyard now, and lives in the same courtyard with Yuan Tai.Since March, he has also started to study in the Imperial College, and he has many things to talk to his eldest brother every day, but now that his eldest brother is moving away, he has no place to talk about it in the future.He didn't want to bother his mother with these little things.

Yuan Tai is now suspended in the Ministry of War, and he doesn't have much time to talk with him, but the brother of the Yu family who is also studying in the Imperial College is always very concerned about his family's situation in the Imperial College.But Jia's family didn't like him being so close, his cousins ​​in the Imperial College and Brother Hao Ming would not ask such detailed questions.

As time went by, every family seemed to understand something.

One day Yu Boyan came to Prince Ping's mansion to chat with Yuan Tai who was still living in the mansion, and Jia's family also watched carefully. After he left, Jia's family dragged Yuan Tai to a corner and whispered to Yuan Tai: "Yuan Tai My elder brother is interested in my elder sister."

Yuan Tai laughed when he heard this, and said, "You are only eight years old, do you know what is interesting?"

"Of course I know, he looks at my eldest sister the same way my father looks at my mother. Brother Yu is 19 years old like you, but you are not engaged yet, so you have to wait for three years Then I got engaged. At that time, my eldest sister was also sixteen, which was the age of engagement. I looked at him and waited for the national funeral in the past three years."

Yuan Tai hadn't gotten the hang of these things yet, when Jia Jia didn't mention them, he really didn't think so, but now he heard Jia Jia talk about them, but he felt that there was such a thing, every time Yu Boyan came, Tuantuan was always by his side Listening to their chatting about knowledge, he watched Yu Boyan staring at Tuantuan several times.

"I don't like brother Yu's family, his father has a concubine." Jiajia said with a straight face.

Yuan Tai had just come to Prince Ping's Mansion and lost his mother and sister. Over the years, he had always treated the little cousin who was close to him as his own sister. He felt uncomfortable that his eldest sister was going to discuss marriage, even if that person was Yu Boyan whom he had always been able to get along with.And if Yu Boyan really has thoughts about Tuantuan, then he has always come to him to discuss knowledge because he has impure thoughts, and he doesn't want Tuantuan to marry someone with impure thoughts.

On the other side, Tuantuan didn't know what the two were talking about, but Yuanyuan, who had always had sharp ears, heard it. Even though she was taking a nap on the table, she woke up suddenly and moved behind the two of them.

"You don't know, do you? I think I'm the only smart person in this mansion." Yuanyuan yawned.

The two were startled when they heard the sound, and they were relieved when they saw that it was Yuanyuan who had always walked silently, and when they wanted to say something, they saw Tuantuan walking over curiously.

"What smart person?" Tuantuan asked, she guessed that Yuanyuan was joking with the two of them again.

"It's okay, the second sister is talking nonsense again." Yuan Tai winked and hid it from the past.After Tuan Tuan had something to do and left, he and Jia Jia went to shake Yuan Yuan who had fallen asleep again.

"Second sister, have you seen it?" Yuan Tai asked.

"I'm not blind." Yuanyuan said angrily, she was sleeping now and didn't want to talk to them.

"When did it start?"

"When I was very young." Yuanyuan said, she was very clever when she was a child, but she would not say anything casually, and it would be a waste of her energy to say anything.

Hearing what she said, Yuan Tai was even more confused.When he first met Yu Boyan, Yuanyuan was only four years old, so Yu Boyan couldn't have thought about Tuantuan since then, right?But at that time, Tuantuan was still young, and he and Yu Boyan were also young.Even though he is nineteen now, he has never cared much about the young lady of any family. Before he went to Jiangnan, he did not like to talk to beautiful women like Huanhuan and Lele. It is really not easy for him to pay attention to these things.

"I think you two are lumps of wood." Yuanyuan complained in a daze.

Jia Jia frowned, how could he be a lump of wood, how smart he is, at such a young age, he can see things that his big brother didn't notice.But although he didn't like the fact that Uncle Yu had a concubine, he didn't care about the eldest sister's marriage.

"Does mother know?" Jiajia asked, for him this is the most important thing.

"I don't know. In the eyes of my mother, we are all children before the age of 16. Didn't you see that she refused to give me money?"

Jiajia ignored the second sister's complaints, thinking that his mother didn't know yet, so he had to tell his mother about it, but Yuantai held him back.

"You can't tell your lord about this. Let me talk to him first. It would be best if he can be persuaded to leave. If it doesn't work, don't be afraid. I will move to the Prince's Mansion soon. He will have no excuse to go to Prince Ping's Mansion in the future." Come."

"Okay." Jiajia agreed, and he still listened to his elder brother.

Only the half-asleep and half-awake Yuanyuan frowned when she heard this, if Yu Boyan didn't come, wouldn't she have one less target to rip off, if she knew she would stop talking, it would be a big loss.

The next time Yu Boyan came, Yuan Tai received him in his yard.Seeing that he was the only one, Yu Boyan looked out a few times uncomfortably, and Yuan Tai watched secretly, only then did he realize that Jiajia's guess was probably true, and he was also a fool for not seeing it until now.

"Big sister won't be here today." Yuan Tai said lightly.

Yu Boyan was playing chess with Yuan Tai, when he heard this, he raised his head to look at Yuan Tai with a guilty conscience, and forced himself to hold the chess pieces calmly and asked, "Sister Zhen is ill?"

Yuan Tai didn't answer, he put the chess piece away, and said, "I'm going to move to the Prince's Mansion soon, before that, you shouldn't come here."

Yu Boyan was already nineteen years old, and he was more mature than Yuan Tai in this area, so he asked, "Cousin, what do you think is wrong with me?"

In terms of relationship, Princess Yiyang's daughter, Prince Heping, and others are cousins. Yu Boyan also called Yuan Tai cousin. When he took Yuan Tai out to participate in the poetry meeting, he always called Yuan Tai cousin. Ty now calls him his cousin too.

"It's not that there is something wrong with you..." Yuan Tai couldn't tell why, "The eldest sister is still young."

"After three years, she won't be young anymore. Or does my cousin think Brother Haoming is better than me, or is there any other boy in Chang'an City who you think is good enough for Sister Zhen?"

Yuan Tai remained silent, and glanced at Yu Boyan, he had to say that Yu Boyan was considered outstanding among the young men he had come into contact with.But he didn't meet many people, maybe Yu Boyan deliberately only took him to see some young people with mediocre qualifications.Now he doesn't believe that Yu Boyan is as calm and breezy as he saw, and he can't listen to what he said.

Seeing him like this, Yu Boyan had no choice but to go back first.After that, he didn't come to Prince Ping's mansion again. He didn't meet Yuan Tai until the county mansion was completed and he came to congratulate him.Yuan Tai also calmed down now. Although he only had a casual job in the military department, he also made new acquaintances with many people. Among these people, there is really no one more outstanding than Yu Boyan.

But Yu Boyan coaxed Tuantuan away like this, he, the older brother, was unwilling.

Yuan Tai moved to a new residence, so the mansion would naturally entertain guests, but because it was still the time of the late emperor's funeral, he invited a few close friends, and there was no wine and no meat for the guests.Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan also went to Yuantai's mansion to be lively and lively. When they arrived, they heard someone teasing him that there was a lack of a hostess in his mansion.

Even though Tuantuan is only 13 years old, she is already a beautiful woman with picturesque eyes and brows, and people often secretly ask her when she walks outside.When others heard that she was Prince Ping's daughter, they thought of the fierce Princess Ping, but if such a beauty "acts fiercely", they would be more than happy to accept it.Seeing other people like this, Yuan Tai felt a little displeased, now he could see that Tuantuan would attract attention no matter where he went, he had to be more careful in the future, lest Tuantuan be coaxed away easily.If it was like Yu Boyan, he would reluctantly agree, if it was worse than Yu Boyan, he would not agree.

He was so focused on protecting Tuantuan that he forgot that he was just Tuantuan's cousin, and that the marriage of Tuantuan had to be decided by Ping Wang and his wife.

 In Ben Meow’s original plan, Princess Chu was going to take a big part in the show, but with another poor concubine Ji, I thought it’s better to write only one, otherwise it would be too sad~
