Chapter 381 : The Concubine is the Poisonous Empress of Jinghua
Lin Ruoxi came to the study of Situ Yu, Hou of Pingyang, and then realized why Mrs. Situ looked panicked. Standing in front of him was a man in his early twenties. His man had thick eyebrows and starry eyes, and his cheeks were as sharp as a knife. He looked very wise and powerful.
Lin Ruoxi had already guessed the identity of this person because he saw a woman very close to him, holding hands, with a complicated look in her eyes. This woman was Lu, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Situ family.
Then this person's identity is Situ Sulai, the eldest son of the Situ family.13v.
Lin Ruoxi brushed towards Situ Su slightly: "My little sister has seen the eldest brother!"
When Situ Su saw Lin Ruoxi, she first looked at Mrs. Situ, who said, "This is your little sister, Lin Ruoxi!"[
Situ Su then stretched out his hand to help Lin Ruoxi up. He asked, "Little sister, you and I have never met each other. How did you recognize me when you first met?"
Lin Ruoxi pointed to Lu, who was standing beside him: "Seeing my sister-in-law looking at you with affectionate feelings and holding hands with you again, even if Ruoxi is stupid, she can guess your identity."
Situ Su was a little embarrassed, it was because he was too careless. It was too embarrassing to ask the younger sister about such obvious things.
Lin Ruoxi saw Situ Su's embarrassment and hurriedly said: "Brother, it must be very difficult along the way. How did you return to the Marquis of Pingyang?"
Asked here, Situ Su sighed deeply and told him about his escape along the way. The room was filled with the Situ family members, and he couldn't help but make a difference when he heard these.
Pingyang Hou Situ Yu's face was very calm. He frowned and said with a serious look: "Su'er, I don't think this matter is simple. The purpose of this Empress Wu is obvious. She is afraid that our military power will affect her control of the entire situation."
Situ Yu looked at Lin Ruoxi and asked, "Ruoxi, what do you think about this?"
In the Situ family, Lin Ruoxi has been regarded as one of the backbones without realizing it. The Situ family also likes to adopt her words and follows them even more. The results of each follow-up are correct. This is why Lin Ruoxi is based in Situ's Mansion and why she speaks very heavily.
When Situ Su first saw this little girl, she felt that she was beautiful and had a different temperament, but she never thought that she had already taken the role of raising weight in the Situ family. He looked at Lin Ruoxi suspiciously, wanting to know how she explained.
Lin Ruoxi thoughtful, with a calm expression, and said without panic: "What Queen Wu fears most is a sense of emptiness. This sense of emptiness is not her feelings, but a real thing. If she feels that she cannot control something well, she will feel that her hands are empty, and her heart is the same, and she will be inexplicably afraid."
Speaking of this, Situ Su was quite surprised. He didn't expect that this little girl would make such accurate guesses to the hearts of the people. Especially if she could guess Queen Wu's intentions, she was indeed a not simple person.
Lin Ruoxi continued: "Empress Wu has always wanted to control most of the military power, because only by mastering the military power will the emperor be concerned about her and will not settle accounts with her because of the death of the former queen. Only by mastering the military power will the ministers in the court turn against her side and be loyal to her. What she wants is the supreme power, a kind of majesty and power, and what can satisfy her is probably the only military power."
Situ Yu nodded: "Because the Situ family and the Wu family Xiang Lai are enemies, and Empress Wu is afraid that King Mao will be supported by the Situ family in the future and threaten her military power, so she will try every means to break up the Situ family's military power."
"My father is right, but now the Situ family also calls Queen Wu's intentions. The military power has been disintegrated, and I don't know what that person will do."
Situ Su couldn't help asking: "Little sister, who is the person you are talking about?"
Situ Zhan answered first: "The person I'm talking about is the emperor!"
"Yes, the fourth brother is right. The emperor has always been a mortal enemy with Empress Wu. If he does not take action this time and let Empress Wu break up the military power of the Situ family, then the person who poses the greatest threat to the emperor will be Empress Wu."
Situ Bin nodded: "Sister Ruoxi is right. The military power of the Situ family has been dispersed, and at least most of these soldiers have surrendered to Empress Wu's subordinates. In this way, Empress Wu's military power will become more and more, and the position of the emperor is in danger."
It seems that the people in the Situ family are the smartest people she has ever met![
Lin Ruoxi commented on these in his heart, and his eyes were bright and bright, looking at Situ Yu: "Father, we have to do two things in this situation now. First, you should ask the emperor to report to the emperor immediately and add more soldiers to the border guard. Second, we must find the third brother, so as not to fall into the trap set by Queen Wu and be captured. Then we are clearing the charges of the eldest brother and the third brother, so that they can regain military power."
Everything that Lin Ruolai's Wu and Lin Ruoxi said was a problem that Situ Yu and several young masters of the Situ family were bothered. After Lin Ruoxi said this, their thoughts were also clear, and Situ Yu couldn't help but applaud.
"Ruoxi, we are so lucky to have you in our Situ family!"
Situ Su couldn't help but praise: "Little sister, you are really Zhuge, the girl!"
Lin Ruoxi just smiled slightly and was not complacent because of these praises. But she immediately remembered something and hurriedly reminded Situ Su: "Brother, I know that there is another thing you have to go back to Pingyang Marquis' Mansion this time, which is to go to the graves of the old lady and the second brother to take a look. But Ruoxi has to remind her that Empress Wu is also waiting for this opportunity to let you and the third brother fall into the trap."
Mrs. Situ nodded and hurriedly grabbed Situ Su's hand: "Su'er, please hide in the secret room in your house. You'll have your wife taking care of you on weekdays."
Lu also agreed and grabbed Situ Su's arm and advised softly: "My husband, you have finally come back. It's better to be careful in this dangerous situation. I can take care of your daily life these days."
Situ Su looked at Mrs. Situ, then looked at Lu, nodded and said, "Mother, madam, you don't have to worry about me. I will naturally be careful and stay in the mansion and not go out. You can rest assured."
"Okay, it's already late, everyone go back and rest! Su'er will feel aggrieved and hide in the secret room. It's best not to let other people in the Marquis' mansion see you, so as not to have any XI in the mansion and tell Queen Wu about your news."
After Situ Yu explained, everyone dispersed from the study.
Mrs. Situ still had not seen enough of her children, especially when Situ Su was eight years old, she followed Situ Yu to fight in war, and rarely stayed in the mansion. Although Mrs. Situ knew that it would be better not to disturb his intimacy with Lu at this time, she could not control her longing for her son and sent Situ Su to the secret room of the Marquis of Pingyang Mansion with Lu.
Situ Zhan sent Lin Ruoxi back to the courtyard. The moon outside was very round and very large. He dragged Lin Ruoxi's figure to the ground obliquely, making it look very beautiful.
Lin Ruoxi looked at the full moon and smiled faintly: "I like to watch the moon the most on weekdays, but at that time there was Xue Yuan beside me..."
Situ Zhan knew that she must have missed Xue Yuan, so he comforted him: "Little sister, sometimes we really have to be mournful and follow the changes. After all, people cannot be resurrected by death."
"I understand these principles, and I have comforted others like this on weekdays, but I only realize it when I come to myself. In fact, it is easy to say, but it is really difficult to do."
Before we knew it, Lin Ruoxi and Situ Zhan passed by the garden of Pingyang Hou Mansion. The begonia and chrysanthemums bloom the most lushly. Lin Ruoxi likes these two kinds of flowers very much. Although these flowers are not gorgeous under the moon, they look unique and pleasing to the eye.
Lin Ruoxi sat under the pavilion and looked at the crabapple and orange flowers in the garden. Situ Zhan sat next to her. Looking at Lin Ruoxi looking at the flowers intently, he couldn't help asking: "Are you thinking about Mr. Yun?"
"Yes, at this time, I don't know what he is doing. Are you sitting in front of the flowers and enjoying the moon like me?"
Lin Ruoxi said it very calmly. In front of Situ Zhan, she felt that she didn't want to hide anything.
Situ Zhan smiled slightly, and his black eyes like an agate stone looked at a black orange flower, and couldn't help but ask: "Ruoxi, have you seen a black orange flower?"
"Black orange flowers? I don't seem to have seen them before!"
"It is said that black is a symbol of darkness and a symbol of death, so whenever black flowers appear, Pingyang Hou Mansion will remove the black flowers and leave those gorgeous flowers. This has always been the case. Until I discovered two years ago, black does not represent darkness, but also a symbol of luck."[
Lin Ruoxi vaguely guessed the reason, but she still wanted to hear from Situ Zhan's mouth, so she asked: "Fourth brother, why did you change this idea two years ago?"
"Because you returned to the Pingyang Marquis Mansion two years ago, my mother's illness has been much better since then, and the old lady's complexion has also improved a lot. The entire Pingyang Marquis Mansion has returned to its previous life. It is precisely because of your arrival that black orange flowers grew in the garden that day, so I think black does not symbolize darkness, but luck."
Lin Ruoxi looked at the garden and saw a big black orange flower. She smiled and said, "Yes, I like black too, but the fourth brother and I think differently. I like black. That's because only those with a cruel heart can stand firm in their position and power, just like the Queen of Martial Arts."
In the Fengfang Palace, the virgin official was rubbing the shoulders and backs for Queen Wu. Queen Wu relaxed her whole body, her beautiful eyes were closed tightly, as if she was enjoying her, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of her lips.
"Job Master, you did a good job this time. Now the Situ family is already a mess. I believe they will fall into the trap soon."
The virgin official flattered and said, "It's still the empress who is smart and uses the deaths of Situ Han and the old lady as bait to fish back the main generals of the Situ family. When they see them gathered together and kill them all, this is wonderful!"
"Haha, your mouth is really sweet!"
"Empress, what I said is true, because someone has told me that the eldest son of the Situ family has fled back to the Marquis' Mansion and has been defeated by our conspiracy."
