After losing my memory, I became a soft double for the general

Chapter 165 The battle for the throne
The situation above the court has gradually become clear, and the voice of supporting the third prince Murong Tan has far overwhelmed the crown prince Murong Jin.

When Murong Jin realized it, he realized that Zhang Song, the chief assistant, and Jiang Ling, the general, were on the side of the imperial concubine and the third prince, and there were only a few courtiers who supported him.

The concubine Huang Guifei held on to Concubine Yun Gui and Princess Zhaoyang tightly in the palace, and Princess Zhaoyang sent people to assassinate the general because of this, and all the ministers jointly signed a letter demanding that Princess Zhaoyang be severely punished.

The ministers brought up the old story again, impeaching Murong Yan as a princess for not setting an example for the Tian family, but only caring about her personal preferences, pretending to be sick to avoid marriage, and making Dayong lose faith in the Uyghur tribe, which was a subordinate country. Can take this opportunity to lead to the battle of Shuozhou.

The ministers wrote letters one after another to dissolve the engagement between the general and Princess Zhaoyang and severely punish Princess Zhaoyang.

Concubine Yun was extravagant and failed to teach and restrain the words and deeds of the princess. As a mother, she could not absolve herself of the blame. She even pointed out that when she was in charge of the sixth palace, she failed to restrain and discipline the concubines in the harem, and rumors spread about the dirty palace. , for dereliction of duty.

As for the rumors about the filthy palace, they alluded to the scandal of Murong Jin and Lin Sujin.

It was no secret that Murong Jin stayed in Ruixin Palace every night. The matter between the crown prince and Mr. Jin was no longer a secret. Now that he let Lin Sujin into the East Palace, his absurd behavior naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of a group of ministers.

Murong Jin is still managing the government on his behalf. These papers demanding that Princess Zhaoyang be severely punished and Concubine Yun Gui be held accountable have piled up on the table in the study of the East Palace. The memorial was ignored, and those civil servants kept playing it, endlessly.

Murong Jin was very annoyed by those civil servants who were clinging to Concubine Yun, and the calls for Murong Tan to be crowned king were getting louder and louder. I'm afraid those civil servants with ulterior motives, such as Zhang Song, would accuse her of concubine Yun in the next step. He demanded that the crown prince should be abolished and Murong Tan should be established instead.

Murong Tan bought people's hearts unknowingly, but he lost the people's hearts in just a few months, and the monarch and his ministers were renounced.

Murong Jin's face was full of lawsuits, and she felt quite dejected.

Wang Neiguan stepped forward and kneaded his shoulders for him. Murongjin didn't wait for Lin Sujin's response for a long time, and cast a displeased glance at Lin Sujin.

There was a sneer on Lin Sujin's face, Murong Jin felt that he was overwhelmed by those excerpts, but unfortunately the current situation was far worse than what he saw.

Once the national mourning period is over, the marriage contract between Princess Zhaoyang and the general will probably be dissolved, and since the imperial concubine controls the harem, there will be no news from the palace, even Lin Xi has not heard from it for a long time.

"Your Highness, you can go to Elder Brother. Elder Brother was picked up by His Royal Highness, and he may be able to advise His Highness." He"

It's okay not to mention Lin Liangchen. When Murong Jin heard this name, he pinched the center of his brows irritably, and said angrily: "Qingqing, don't mention Lin Liangchen again. Since the death of his father, he has said that he is sick. Listen to me. Said it was a sudden and serious illness, and he was bedridden."

"Brother is sick!" Lin Sujin stood up excitedly, and then felt that she had lost her composure, and glanced at Murong Jin's face, but fortunately he didn't find any clues, so he relaxed a little.

Seeing that Lin Sujin was a little absent-minded, Murong Jin's face showed obvious impatience, "Could it be that even Qingqing can't do anything about it?"

Lin Sujin's thoughts were not on Murong Jin at all, she just wanted to get rid of Murong Jin, and hurried to the Lin Mansion to meet her brother,
"The imperial guards and patrol battalion are in the hands of His Highness. Those courtiers want to support the Third Prince to succeed him. If the Third Prince dies, the throne will naturally only belong to His Highness."

Murong Tan's legs were disabled, and his biological mother was a lowly court lady. No matter what, he could not let the throne fall into Murong Tan's hands.

Then he simply did nothing and kept going. If Murong Tan died, he would be the only one who could inherit the throne.

"In Qingqing's opinion, how can Murong Tan be killed quietly without making people suspect Gu."

If Murong Jin had no brains, if Murong Jin died, he would definitely be the biggest suspect, how could he be so quiet, she couldn't help feeling ridiculous, it was ridiculous that Murong Jin was so mediocre, yet his thoughts were so naive.

"I heard that imperial concubine Liu will go out of the palace every month to pray for her dead son. Liu has now recognized Murong Tan as her son. She is trying her best to act like a loving mother and filial son in front of outsiders. On the fifteenth day of next month, I heard that the imperial concubine will take Murong Tan out of the palace to Wan'an Temple. This is the best opportunity for Your Highness."

Murong Jin was very happy, and was about to put her arms around Lin Sujin for a kiss, so she hurriedly untied the jade belt around her waist to try the new tricks he had discovered in the past few days, but Lin Sujin pushed it away, squeezed her throat, and said delicately: "Your Highness, Today, I'm inconvenient, I'm afraid I won't be able to serve His Highness."

Murong Jin felt a little disappointed, frowned, and said: "No problem, since Qingqing is inconvenient, I will come to see Qingqing another day."

After leaving Wutong Courtyard, he couldn't wait to find his two beautiful concubines.

After dark, Lin Sujin asked Huier to prepare the carriage, and hurried out of the house to meet Lin Liangchen.

……

Su Mei had just had dinner in Luoliyuan, Liu Lingshan and her husband came to visit, Pei Ziyu went to the front hall, Liu Lingshan went to Luoliyuan to talk to Su Mei.

Su Mei rushed forward to meet her, took her hand, sat on the edge of the bed, and asked: "How is my cousin recently, are you still used to it in the capital?"

Liu Lingshan nodded, and said with a shy smile, "Thank you cousin for remembering, I'm already pregnant, and brother Ziyu has treated me very well."

"Really?" Su Mei's eyes lit up, and she bent her lips happily, "That's really great." She was sincerely happy for Liu Lingshan.

"Why is my cousin so thin? I heard that the emperor issued a decree to give her a marriage. I still couldn't let go of my cousin, so I went with my husband to see her. By the way, what is my cousin going to do in the future?"

Su Mei shook her head. She seemed to never have thought about what would happen in the future. She was forced to stay in Jiangfu because she was pregnant with Jiang Ling's child. After she gave birth to a child, she would try to beg Jiang Ling to give her back her freedom. die.

She sighed softly, and Liu Lingshan saw her sullen expression, fearing that there was something unspeakable and making her sad, so she took out a letter from the inside of her dress and handed it to Su Mei, and said with a smile: "This is The third cousin asked me to give it to my cousin before joining the army."

Since Su Mei entered Beijing, there has been no news from Qin Luan. She knows Jiang Ling's temperament, and she will do everything possible to prevent their brothers and sisters from meeting. After receiving Liu Lingshan's letter, her hands were trembling, and she couldn't wait to read the content of the letter. , the letter said that Jiang Ling had written a letter of recommendation to the governor of Youzhou and asked the third brother to go to the Youzhou battlefield.

The third brother also said angrily that although Jiang Ling saved him, had someone heal him, and wrote a letter of recommendation, he would never accept Jiang Ling's love, nor would he forgive Jiang Ling.

After he has accomplished his meritorious service, he will go back to Beijing to find Jiang Ling for a duel, win a fair fight, and rescue Su Mei and his own nephew from him.

After reading the letter, Su Mei's nose felt sour, her eyes were red and she shed tears.

"Is the third brother's injury healed?"

Liu Lingshan nodded and said: "It's all over, Third Cousin has saved his life. In fact, Cousin doesn't have to worry about Third Cousin. Third Cousin is good at martial arts. Once he has made great achievements, he can be named a general and bestowed a title."

"That's right." Su Mei wiped her tears with a handkerchief. After the Qin family became criminal officials, the third brother could only enter the imperial court and become an official if he made meritorious service on his own merits.
