The emperor was angry, and the people underneath did not dare to be slow.
After a long time, in addition to Lu’s related people have arrived at the scene looking down from the courtyard, each person’s expression is clear to the eye: Cui Ziyu trembling, the king of Liang confused, Gu Shao is unperturbed.
“Imperial brother, this is?” Seeing Emperor Duanhua coldly looking down on them without saying anything, next to Empress Wei and Jian Xubai are both expressionless, unable to see the blessings and curses, Cui Ziyu has been left out in the cold for a long time and does not dare to make a sound; Gu Shao is calm and doesn’t open his mouth; King Liang, however, can’t help himself and looks around the circle and then says suspiciously, “But is there something going on?”
“What did you say there was?!” Emperor Duanhua was full of anger, and when he heard the words, he shouted angrily without even thinking, “You guys did something good and still have the face to ask me?!”
Liang Wang as Duanhua Emperor’s only brother of the same mother, although the two brothers are not grown up in one place, in the end the bloodline is close, after Duanhua Emperor ascended the throne, has been very decent.
This is still the first time by the Duanhua Emperor attack, can not help but blush, “Please brother rest his anger, I really do not know where to do wrong, called brother so angry?”
“You still want to play dumb?!” Emperor Duanhua slammed the evidence from Lu’s side in front of him, “In vain, I regard you as my hand and foot, but you actually did such a thing! How can I explain this to my grandmother? How can I face my father in the future?”
Hearing the emperor mention the Empress Dowager and Emperor Xianjia, Gu Shao slightly frowned, King Liang still knew nothing, but Cui Ziyu could not bear the fear, “flopping” and kneeled down, trembling, “Your Majesty! I know my sins!”
He so confessed, the atmosphere in the hall more and more tense, Liang Wang just asked a sentence “uncle committed what crime”, was the Duanhua Emperor grabbed a handful of wolf hair splitting head and face down, “What time you are still here to pretend to be! You think I usually favor you lawlessness is not it?”
Said here, glimpsed Gu Shao sleeve hand calmly standing there, Duanhua Emperor pointed at him again cursed, “You see what you do this prime minister! Liang Wang and Cui family collusion, instigated you sheltered Lu, do treasonous acts, life forced the death of my first family little aunt and little aunt father, other people do not know is also just! You actually also do not know anything, I really do not know where you that big name!
Gu Shao heard a distinctive stare, calm face square up waves, “Your Majesty is saying that the generation of the country’s Grand Princess and his wife, is coerced by people, which took the narrow road?!”
“Speak for yourselves!” Seeing that Emperor Duanhua was so angry that he was already gasping for air, Empress Wei was worried about his health and hurriedly stepped forward to support him, persuading him in a low voice.
Duanhua Emperor in the end to the Queen’s face, suppressed the anger, pointing at Cui Ziyu said, “Dare to have half a word of concealment, and try this identity of my uncle’s family, whether or not to protect you!”
Cui Ziyu had long been paralyzed on the ground at this time, and almost bawled out at his words, “Your Majesty, I was really confused for a moment! I beg Your Majesty to be merciful for the Empress Dowager’s sake! Please forgive me for the Empress Dowager’s sake!”
The empress dowager he said was of course referring to Emperor Duanhua’s birth mother, Empress Cui, if Empress Cui was still around and personally sent a message to plead for her family, Emperor Duanhua would definitely want to listen.
But now Cui dowager empress is no longer alive, Duanhua emperor’s growing up process, with Cui Ziyu this uncle’s face times, not as much as with the full uncle Jiguo Gong see it! Cui Ziyu’s daughter, Cui Jianren, that year and so capricious humiliation of the Duanhua Emperor, Duanhua Emperor to this uncle’s family naturally has no good feelings.
At this moment heard the words, instead of softening the heart, but instead, erectly slapped the case, “Do not want to say with me dragged down!!!!!!!”
“I’ll speak now!” Cui Ziyu knew that the emperor had been moved to real anger, and not daring to beg for mercy, he could only wipe his tears and nose and explain the passage with fear and trembling
This after Emperor Duanhua, Empress Wei and Jian Xubai already know, that is, the Cui family is not willing to be by the nephew’s cold, trying to regain favor. Unable to help Cui dowager empress is dead, because of the earlier Cui see mercy things, they to the emperor of the Duanhua reason is not good, also do not dare to directly to the emperor in front of.
The Emperor was kind to his brother, King Liang, who was brought up by Empress Dowager Cui, and met with the Cui family more often than Emperor Duanhua. Thinking that he could get help from King Liang, Cui Ziyu privately asked for his help in mediating in front of Emperor Duanhua, so that the Cui family could get the holy favor.
After that, he said, “King Liang has reminded me that I am the younger brother of the Empress Dowager, and that I am related to His Majesty by blood and bone, so I should share His Majesty’s worries and solve His Majesty’s problems! After I got these words, I speculated day and night, but due to my mediocrity, I didn’t dare to be sure. Later on, my wife met Song Lu for some reason, and was reminded by her, and only then did she think of the fact that Her Royal Highness the Grand Princess of Dai Guo had been rude to the Empress Dowager and His Majesty, and that as the Empress Dowager’s younger brother and His Majesty’s uncle, how could I not do something about it? That’s why …”
When Emperor Duanhua heard this, he slammed his quill again Empress Wei hurriedly whispered a few words of advice, and then changed her dignified color and asked on behalf of the Emperor, “Song Lu’s family has no dealings with the Cui family, so how could you, the head of a family, listen to the words of an unfamiliar woman? This is simply ridiculous!”
“The world knows that Song Lu treats Lady Yan well, while Lady Yan is in love with Duke Yan, and Duke Yan has always been trusted by His Majesty.” Cui Ziyu immediately said, “That is why I trust Song Lu’s words!”
Empress Wei was exasperated and laughed, sweeping a glance at Jian Xubai and teasingly said, “Ah Xiu, this matter has become the mastermind of your couple!”
Jian Xubai blandly said, “Because fatherinlaw left a will before his death, my wife is very disapproving, in order to avoid the step motherinlaw insisted on handing over the estate, my wife in the Liaozhou before the trip, I ordered the explicit face of the alienation of the Song family, only in the dark care, lest the step motherinlaw frequently mention the matter of the fatherinlaw’s will!”
The implication was that Yan Guo Gongfu was not as close to Song Lu as Cui Ziyu had said.
Cui Ziyu’s claim that Song Lu’s relationship with Song Yixiao was good, and therefore Song Lu’s mention of being related to the Duke of Yan’s mansion and even Emperor Duanhua, was simply untenable!
“But Song Lu’s hand has the jade pendant that His Majesty wears with him.” Who would have thought that Cui Ziyu would immediately retort, “I have seen that jade pendant with my own eyes when I visited His Majesty! Song Lu is a woman, and the Song family is thin, not to mention getting the jade pendant used by His Majesty, it would be very difficult to meet with His Majesty! And of all the people related to Song Lu, the one most likely to get it is the Duke of Yan’s residence!”
“Wasn’t that jade pendant the one you gave to Song Lu?!” Empress Wei and Jian Xu Bai looked at each other with shock in their eyes!
They all thought that the jade pendant was something Cui Ziyu had managed to get her hands on and give to Lu!
After all, just as Cui Ziyu had said, Song Lu’s current situation was not connected to the royal family at all, so how could she possibly obtain the jade pendant that Emperor Duanhua had personally rewarded to King Shu?
And Cui family even if not Duanhua emperor attention, in the end out of a posthumous Cui dowager empress, even if Cui dowager empress power, in the generation of the country’s eldest eldest princess revealed her in their own side of the manpower, suffered a heavy blow, but in the end it is the emperor in the submerged in the emperor of the old man served, decades down, may not be left what the network of people to Cui family!
But now Cui Ziyu said that the jade pendant was obtained by Lu herself, and this matter could be complicated!
“I’ll be honest: if I had the face to ask for the jade pendant that His Majesty keeps close to his heart, why would I do such a thing?” Cui Ziyu bitterly said, “Moreover, Song Lu mentioned the matter of my unfilial daughter, saying that Lady Yan thought that the Cui family was in the end His Majesty’s maternal uncle, and that she had the intention of turning a conflict with the Cui family into a peace, and that this was why she gave the Cui family the opportunity to share His Majesty’s worriesalthough the unfilial daughter had taken her own life, and was not related to Lady Yan’s matters, but I thought that in the end, it was the good intentions of Lady Yan, and so I gave the Cui family the opportunity to share His Majesty’s worries. matter, but the minister thought that in the end it was Mrs. Yan’s good intentions, so under deliberation, he agreed to it!”
He said these words are very bitter, Duanhua emperor remembered his biological mother in the scene, chest anger slightly calm, but still cold voice asked, “sent people to Qiongzhou is Song Lu’s, to obtain my personal jade pendant is also Song Lu’s and she looked for you, is it just for the socalled for Mrs. Yan to sell a person’s love? ”
Cui Ziyu thought for a moment and said, “Song Lu also asked a lot of things about the Grand Princess and her wife of the Dai Guo, and I told her everything I knew.”
Song Lu’s although the official family origin, but in the room when the age is still young, after the cabinet after the husband’s family Song family, and with the Daikoku Grand Princess has nothing to do with the Daikoku Grand Princess couple and the contradiction between the Duanhua Emperor, since it is not well known.
And since she is going to force the death of the Dai Guo Grand Princess Couple under the banner of the Duanhua Emperor … In addition to the token, of course, she must also say what she says in order to obtain the trust of the Dai Guo Grand Princess Couple.
So it seems that Empress Wei and Jian Xubaibai both deduced wrongly: the mastermind is not Cui Ziyu at all, but Song Lu’s right!
“I thought there must be inside information!” A moment of silence in the hall, Gu Shao spoke again, “Song Lu’s but a woman, may not be able to make such a big thing, I’m afraid it is also for people to use …”
“To be used for someone? Why don’t you say for the tiger to help the tiger?!” Emperor Duanhua couldn’t bear it and slapped the table again, pointing at him and cursing, “I know that you have a deep friendship with Song Jinan, and you have always taken care of the Song family! Before the death of Princess Wei, you help the Song family to speak, I allowed! For this life aggrieved my first cousin and cousininlaw! The smallpox thing, I also think in your face, not because of the Lu family to pursue the Song Lu’s. People say that things do not come in threes! People say things don’t happen in threes, now what else do you want to say?”
Gu Shao “flopped” and knelt down, did not defend himself, only said, “I’m guilty!”
“You …” Duanhua Emperor saw him like this, more and more angry this old man disposal of political affairs is indeed a good hand, meet the big events, such as when Emperor Xianjia died, but also very calm down the scene .
But in addition, in for the emperor to share the problem above, simply is no construction number! If Gu Shao really is not this material, Duanhua Emperor is not unreasonable, since it will not be difficult for the old minister left behind by Emperor Xianjia.
Gu Shao and Jane Ping Yu hooked up for many years, the two from the only to enter the civil service on, all the way to the fight to the top even if the Gu Shao first defeat, but the middle of the means to show as well as change of mind, but also enough to make the ordinary people marveled at!
How is it possible to say that he can’t help the Emperor every time?
Although Emperor Duanhua’s qualifications as a ruler are not as good as Emperor Xianjia’s, he is not a fool, so how can he not see that Gu Shao is not trying his best at all?
Or maybe he doesn’t want to do his best?
And now Da Rui is in its prime, the four realms of peace, Gu Shao’s identity and reputation, since it is impossible to do anything to collude with outsiders, then he does not want to worry too much for the Duanhua Emperor this is not to look down on the Duanhua Emperor and what is it?
If not for the fact that the current political affairs really can not be separated from Gu Shao; secondly, Duanhua Emperor has not been on the throne for a long time, at this time to take out or send out the important ministers that Emperor Xianjia specially left for him, the impact is not good, Duanhua Emperor has long wanted to let him roll back to Hongzhou!
Now see Gu Shao put out a tame plead guilty appearance, the emperor’s heart rage the reason why the old man plead guilty so quickly, is not selfreliant I can not really drive him away?
The emperor was about to continue to attack, who knew that at this time outside the temple but came the chamberlain reported, “Song Lu’s pass to!”
