Chapter 680 The wind rises
The scorching heat in Jinling City is much harder than that in Chengdu Prefecture.
Even in the afternoon, even if there are palace maids holding fans to serve in the shade of the hall, they feel stuffy and hot. In the evening, raindrops fall on the eaves, stones and grass and leaves of all sizes. Not to mention that the weather is cooler, people feel comfortable when they hear it.
After using food, Qingyang was quite interested in calling Bin'er, who was taller than her waist and hips, to come to study his elementary school studies today.
She was a princess of Shu who married into the Great Chu. She was an alternative existence in the Chu Palace. Or others were tired of her regarding herself as noble but was favored by Your Majesty, and no one went to Changxin Palace to visit the palace. Of course, under the leadership of Queen Huang E, she went to Cishou Palace with her concubines to greet her, Qingyang was not happy to visit the palace where other concubines lived.
However, Wang Yong successfully usurped the throne, and now Shu Kingdom has been vain to Da Chu again. Qingyang has no intention of competing for the legitimate power, but his life in the palace is much more comfortable than before.
Or maybe Qingyang did not have the intention to compete for the legitimate power or favor, Yang Yuanpu still liked to run to Changxin Palace and stayed overnight in Changxin Palace.
"The grass on the Liliyuan, one, one..."
Qingyang listened to Bin'er's tender voice stuck on the word "一", and after a while, he couldn't remember the following poem. He was hesitating whether to ask the palace maid to take out a ruler. When he saw several servants and palace maids who were guarding the door of the hall, he knelt down and looked over. Seeing Yang Yuanpu accompanying Chen Ruyi and others, he walked into the hall, holding Bin'er's hand, he came over to greet him: "I (my son) have seen Your Majesty (father)."
"Get up, why don't you remember what poems I learned today?" Yang Yuanpu asked in a good mood.
"Bin'er's heart is still a little bit naughty and can't sit still in her study," Qingyang asked, "What do you like when your Majesty meets? I'm in such a good mood?"
"There is no good news. Han Qian submitted a memorial from Tangyi and wanted to make his eldest son Han Wenxin the Marquis' son, the Censorate, and the Ministry of Rites think it is inconsistent with the etiquette and law. There were several impeachment letters two days ago. I thought this matter might be delayed. Unexpectedly, today's court discussion, my mother and the queen and the dukes said nothing, but only said that the Han family's origins are Xuzhou and the heir of the Marquis of Qianyang should follow Han Qian's opinions more, and this matter is over." Yang Yuanpu said.
"Your Majesty asked Eunuch Chen privately to ask the opinions of Marquis of Liyang and Celebrity Shen the day before yesterday, and they fully agreed?" Qingyang asked strangely.
It is difficult to get more external information in the Qingyang, even though Yun Puzi still comes to the palace every now and then, she is more about explaining Taoist books to relieve her boredom. Therefore, she is confused about Han Qian's request to establish a eldest son at this time, and she thought that Shen Yang, the old stubborn, would not accompany this matter.
"Han Qian asked for the eldest son to be appointed, probably to prepare for personally leading his troops to the north to join the war. The Marquis of Liyang and the Prime Minister Shen were all worried about the Mongolian forces. It would be no harm to ask Tangyi to fight the Mengwu people to lose both sides." Yang Yuanpu did not hide anything in front of Qingyang, and laughed.
Qingyang's heart skipped a beat. She was in a palace ban and even did not contact Han Daoming's daughter Han Shuhui on weekdays. She was as peaceful as a harmless little white rabbit, but she also knew that her brother Wang Yong could successfully usurp the throne, which was inseparable from Han Qian's support. Even this year, she has relied on Han Qian's support to a considerable extent, and Shuzhong was barely stable.
However, Shuzhong has not been worry-free from now on.
At this time, Zhao Mengji and Wang Xiaoxian led 70,000 troops to Qinqi and other states, and they could counterattack Shu from Yinping Road at any time.
Li Zhigao's current situation in Liangzhou was blocking Zhao Mengji, and Wang Xiaoxian and others attacked the passage from Liangzhou to attack northern Shu, but Li Zhigao's mind may not be simple.
It is hard to imagine that if Han Qian really fought with the Mengwu people, would there be any trouble in Shu?
"Your Majesty is saying that Han Qian is eager to become a legitimate, but he is planning to make a living after his death. The situation in Hehuai is so dangerous that Han Qian thinks he may die in the battlefield? But, Han Qian really wants to have something to do, but His Majesty saves a lot of worries," Qingyang said with a quiet smile, "By the way, Xinjin Hou will probably be happy to see this. By the way, when Eunuch Chen went to meet the Marquis of Liyang and Chen Xiang, did they consider the attitude of Xinjin Hou?"
When Qingyang mentioned Li Zhigao, Yang Yuanpu's face couldn't help but sank. He thought that Tangyi and the Mengwu people were both defeated. But in fact, Tangyi's big and small setbacks were the most beneficial to the court. However, due to major setbacks and even Han Qian was defeated, it would be difficult for anyone in the court to check and balance Li Zhigao, which is not a blessing for the Great Chu.
Yang Yuanpu looked at Chen Ruyi and asked, "When you met the Marquis of Liyang and the Prince of Shen in private, did they mention the Marquis of Xinjin this time?"
Chen Ruyi was slightly stunned, as if she didn't expect to be asked this question at this time, but after hesitating for a while, she said:
"I have asked the Marquis of Liyang, but the Marquis of Liyang said that the Marquis of Qianyang and the Marquis of Xinjin seem to be inconsistent, but there are no dissatisfactions in all major matters. I was speculating for a moment that the Marquis of Liyang said this, but when I reported to Your Majesty, I forgot to mention this."
Qingyang glanced at Chen Ruyi suspiciously. How could he forget to report such an important thing?
Yang En, the Marquis of Liyang, really said this. Yang Enzhen believes that Han Qian and Li Zhigao have actually been secretly colluding. The so-called "discord" has always been just a show for others to watch?
But if the Marquis of Liyang really said this, what did Chen Ruyi hide it without authorization?
Or maybe the Marquis of Liyang did not say this, but Chen Ruyi was asked by someone else and was fiddling with right and wrong with ulterior motives at this time?
Qingyang thought about it and secretly felt that Chen Ruyi should not dare to talk nonsense. He thought that the Marquis of Liyang had not entered the palace much in the past two years, but when Chen Ruyi went to the Marquis of Liyang to ask for advice, Chen Yang was also present. He really dared to talk nonsense that was too easy to expose.
But why did Chen Ruyi hide this sentence before and not mention it? What hidden information is made him worry?
But seeing Yang Yuanpu's face turned gloomy, Qingyang secretly felt that Chen Ruyi's words should have touched his mind. He also changed the topic and talked about other things, but he didn't think about what this moment meant.
Yang Yuanpu stayed in Changxin Palace with a relaxed mood for a while, then took Chen Ruyi and other servants to go back to Chongwen Palace directly.
At this time, the rain became heavier and poured, and the world was dark, and only the bright corner lights hanging on the eaves and courtyard walls were still emitting a faint light.
The candle was in the hall and the fire was high. Yang Yuanpu walked into the hall and paced irritably. After a while, he signaled the servants to retreat to the outer hall. He stared at Chen Ruyi with a gloomy expression and asked, "Did you really forget the words of the Marquis of Liyang? What else do you have to hide from me?"
Chen Ruyi knelt in front of the imperial case with a pale face and stammered: "I dare not deceive Your Highness, but I dare not speak out even if I catch wind and shadow."
"What a big deal, I dare to let you down my trust?" Yang Yuanpu has always hated the untrustworthy people around him, but he didn't expect that Chen Ruyi would really hide something from him, and he wanted to peel him off.
"I dare not say it. It is a death sentence if I say it. Besides, these are just things that can catch the wind and shadows, so I dare not take a closer look." Chen Ruyi kept kowtowing and said with a frustration.
"If you don't say it, I can't kill you now?" Yang Yuanpu took off the sword hanging for decoration on the wall and said with hatred and anger.
"This matter is related to the Empress Dowager," Chen Ruyi said.
"Say..." Yang Yuanpu said with a stern look.
"It is easy to verify this matter. Your Majesty ordered the second prince to be taken out of Cishou Palace and handed over to Concubine Han to support him." Chen Ruyi said.
"What the hell is it?" Yang Yuanpu asked.
"..." Chen Ruyi gritted her teeth and said, "I didn't know that the palace maid had said some time ago that the second prince had met Han Jun, the son of Han Daoming, but he didn't look like His Majesty..."
"Nothing nonsense, Li Yao will never do anything lewd or impure in the palace." Yang Yuanpu was so angry that he wanted to use a sword to cut Chen Ruyi, and roared and wanted to smash Chen Ruyi's mouth and teeth.
"Wei-I am not saying that Empress Li and Han Jun have an affair, but suspect that the second prince in Cishou Palace is no longer the real second prince," Chen Ruyi looked at the sword and smashed it with sheath, but did not dare to dodge, and kowtowed, "On the eve of the Five-Tooth Navy's defeat of Hongzepu, the slaves in Changchun Palace seemed to hear the baby crying. Afterwards, there was a rumor that there was a palace maid and a guard in Changchun Palace who had a child secretly and asked the empress dowager to die. After that, Han Jun retired from the age of illness and retired from Xuanzhou. All this was a coincidence-Wei-I am hearing that Han Jun was alive and did not look like he was sick..."
"..." Yang Yuanpu couldn't believe what Chen Ruyi said after sitting in the imperial case weakly.
"Although I have heard of these two things, I have been catching up with the Queen Mother, and the Han Mansion gave me ten courage to talk nonsense in front of His Majesty. I am not intending to deceive Your Majesty," Chen Ruyi said, "The day before yesterday, I went to see the Marquis of Liyang. After hearing that Marquis of Liyang said, I was worried, but I had not had time to investigate the matter secretly; I am also brave, and I don't know whether to investigate the matter secretly..."
"You mean the second prince has left the palace. The one in Cishou Palace is the evil son who has moved flowers and trees?" Yang Yuanpu asked gritted his teeth, "and because of this, Tangyi and Xiangbei seem to be incompatible, but in fact there is no discord?"
"I dare not make random guesses." Chen Ruyi said.
"You follow me to Cishou Palace!" Yang Yuanpu stood up and said.
"Your Majesty must not be done. This matter is not true. I can only apologize for you. But if this matter is true, Your Majesty will rush away angrily, afraid that there will be a murder. We must make a long-term plan!" Chen Ruyi knelt in front of Yang Yuanpu, hugged his thighs, and persuaded him.
