Chapter 55: General's son (1)

"Heh, dare to love the regent, still have to pick something up?" Fang Zheng sank his face pretending to be angry.
There was a burst of fragrance in the house, and the listener was relaxed and happy. Xuanyuan Yan put down the tea cup in his hand and glanced at her, "The Queen Mother seems very angry today?"
Fang Zhao: "..." Is she angry? May I ask any official who dares to talk to her like this?
Taking a deep breath, she raised her hand on the table and said, "Why is the Aijia doing the regent again? Half a month later, the envoy of the kingdom of Lan will visit, so the regent still wants to let someone go to the marriage."
It's not easy for her queen mother!
"The emperor is still young, so naturally he can't bring the princess of Lan Guo into the harem." After he finished speaking, he turned the jade finger in his hand calmly, "Although the emperor can't do it, the minister has not yet married his wife."
"No!" Fang Zheng refused subconsciously, but when he met the other's puzzled eyes, he coughed a little embarrassingly, "The princess of Lan is noble, and she naturally has to choose from our royal family if she wants to marry. Although the emperor is still young, there are quite a few people of the right age among other clan members, so the marriage must not reach the regent."
If the hero's son gets married, what will she do!
Hearing her words, Xuanyuan Yan couldn't help but move her eyebrows, "The empress dowager's meaning... is that the status of the minister is lowly?"
"No!" Fang Zhao didn't know how to explain it, so he could only look at him impatiently, "The Regent shouldn't over-interpret the words of Laijia, if you have a low status, wouldn't the Manchu literary and martial arts have a low status?"
Fang Zhao is in a very complicated mood now. She is afraid of the hero's son rebelling, and at the same time, she is afraid that he will hate herself, but now she doesn't know how to attack.
When the words were over, Xuanyuan Yan just nodded slightly, thoughtfully, "So the empress dowager meant this."
Fang Zhao looked at his expression and didn't know which country he was thinking of going to. In the end, he could only wave his hand, "The family is tired, you can leave."
Going on, she didn't know what to say.
Hearing this, Xuanyuanyan really got up and bowed her head slightly, "The Weichen will leave first, and the empress dowager remembers to rest."
Fang Zhao: "..." Is she thinking too much? How does she feel that the regent is always weird?
Walking out of the Longevity Palace, before Xuanyuan Yan walked down the steps, he saw two familiar voices hurriedly approaching.
I didn't expect to see him here. Both of them were taken aback. After reacting, they immediately bowed and saluted, "The official has seen the prince!"
In front of him, one old and one young, the old sideburns are gray, but the old eyes are shining, the young looks handsome, but there seems to be a little reluctance on the face, which shows that this is extremely bad.
"I don't know what is the so-called "Fang Master's coming to the Empress Dowager?" He looked at the two condescendingly, turning the jade finger on his hand without hurried.
Fang Kong scolded the traitor secretly in his heart, but his old face was full of respect, "Going back to the prince, it's just some private affairs in the official house, I want to ask the queen mother's opinion."
When the words finished, a dark-skinned guard behind Xuanyuan Yan suddenly said coldly: "The empress dowager not only has to worry about the affairs of the country, but also has to look after the emperor. Master Fang ran to trouble the empress dowager because of a small matter. It's really not at all compassionate. !"
After speaking, there was a trace of embarrassment on Fang Kong's face. Fang Liu on the side immediately took a step forward, but was dragged by him.
Xuanyuanyan waved his hand to let the guard retreat, and glanced at the two of them faintly, "Master Fang is the queen mother's father, and it is normal for the father and daughter to say something about family affairs, but the harem has never allowed foreign men to enter, so Master Fang still stayed. It’s better to be outside."
"I'm the elder brother of the empress dowager, why can't I go in?" Fang Liu was a little bit helpless.
Suddenly, the guards behind Xuanyuanyan pulled their swords, and Fang Kong was so scared that Fang Kong quickly pulled his son behind him, "The lord, please forgive me. The dog is young and doesn't understand the rules of the palace. The officials never wanted him to enter the empress. The sleeping hall!"
Fang Liu stared, seeing that his father was so low-pitched towards this traitor that he was not annoying!
Xuanyuanyan waved his hand to make people retreat, "This king believes that Lord Fang is also a person who understands the rules."
After he finished speaking, he glanced at the guards guarding the Longevity Palace again, "In the future, no foreigner will be allowed to enter or leave the Queen Mother's palace except for Master Fang. If there is an intruder, he will not be pardoned!"
"Yes!" the guards outside the hall immediately called out in unison.
Fang Kong's face changed slightly, and he almost forgot that the commander of the imperial army in the palace was also under this traitor!
After sweeping his eyes indifferently, Xuanyuan Yan then slowly moved away from the Palace of Longevity without any haste.
Seeing his leaving back, Fang Kong patted Fang Liu's shoulder, "You are waiting outside, you will come out soon for your father."
Fang Liu was very unwilling, but he could only watch his father enter the inner hall.
Fang Zhao is still eating pastries here. She has a different taste from the original. She prefers to eat very sweet pastries, but before one bite, she suddenly heard an announcement from outside.
She was so frightened that she immediately put down the pastry, and then continued to sit there, watching her father slowly walk into the hall, bowing to her and bowing to her, "Weichen please greet the empress dowager, the empress dowager is a thousand years old!"
"Father, please get up soon." Fang Zheng went over and helped him up immediately.
Fang Kong glanced back, and the former immediately said to the court lady at the door: "Go and see how the emperor is."
"Yes." Several court ladies immediately retreated slowly.
Until there was no third person in the inner hall, Fang Kong lowered his face and sat down in front of the soft couch. He didn't know what he thought of, and he slapped the table with a palm, "Huh! This Xuanyuan dog thief is becoming more and more frantic now. Suppress our families so recklessly!"
Seeing her father’s furious look, Fang Zheng also heard about it, but she didn’t know how to say it. The family’s foundation was solid, and they monopolized the resources of many North Korean and Chinese officials. He became ruthless and took out many important official positions. As a leader, Fang Zheng felt that he did nothing wrong, but she is now an empty shelf. The hero's son still suppressed her own family, so Fang Zheng did not Know how to express opinions.
"The power of this dog thief is getting stronger and stronger. If this continues, not only will you and the emperor lose their status, even our Fang family will not escape!" Fang Kong slapped the table again, blowing his angry beard.
Fang Zheng sat opposite him and didn’t know how to speak. After all, although the son of the protagonist took the power, he hadn’t done anything harmful to the world. On the contrary, he reduced taxes on the people, but some of his actions must have harmed the interests of these families. of.
"Father, my daughter thought... this regent should not be able to rebel." Fang Zhao's words were a bit false.
When the words fell, Fang Kong glared at her angrily, "Nowadays, we don’t put our veterans in the eyes before he becomes the throne. In the future, he will surely rebel. When he becomes the emperor, there will be no existence of our Fang family. , And how is he different from being an emperor now!"
Fang Zhao had never seen his father so angry before, so he could only comfort him: "Then my father thought...what should we do?"
After speaking, Fang Kong's expression also changed, his eyes touched his beard deeply, and he muttered for a moment before he said, "The only way to do this now is to start first!"
Fang Zhao was so scared that his palms tightened, but Fang Kong looked at her hopefully, "You are the queen mother, that dog thief will sell you a bit of face, next time he comes to you again, you put it in the tea Give me some medicine, let's kill him all the time, and then put the blame on others!"
Seeing the fierceness on his face, Fang Yu's mood was complicated. Here, inside and outside, she felt that she was not doing anything right. She would definitely not be able to kill, but if she didn't kill, she wouldn't stop watching her father like this.
Seeing her hesitated, Fang Kong’s old face showed a trace of dissatisfaction, "Xianer, it is for your father’s sake. If you don’t do it, sooner or later he will do it to you and the emperor. It’s better to do it first. !"
Fang Zhao sighed slightly, raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, "Let me think about this. If there is nothing else, my father should go back first."
"You..." Fang Kong seemed a little unwilling, but finally walked away.
Fang Zhao was very helpless, because no matter what she did was wrong, but it was better to attack first. Maybe she could persuade the hero's son to treat their Fang family better in the future.
...
On the second day when he went to court, a lieutenant of Xuanyuan Yan sent one of his lieutenants to an expedition and led one hundred thousand soldiers. When Fang Zheng was a woman who could not show her face, he could not go out to cheer the soldiers.
The weather was very hot today, and the little emperor had been clamoring to drink iced mung bean soup, but because he was afraid that drinking too much would be bad for his health, Fang Yu never let him drink more.
"Mother... Erchen wants to drink!" The little emperor held her clothes swaying and coquettishly.
Fang Zhao couldn't stand the cuteness of children the most, so he could only pick him up in one hand, "It's getting late, can I take a nap with you?"
Hearing that he could sleep with her, the little emperor nodded immediately and lay on the bed with his arms around her neck.
After finally coaxing the child to sleep, Fang Zhao was already sweating profusely, and the palace maid behind immediately asked, "Is your mother showering and changing clothes?"
In such a hot day, you can't stand it without a bath.
"By the way, the Aijia asked you to hear the regent, can there be a pass?" she asked casually.
The next moment the palace lady heard the words and said respectfully: "Hui Niangniang, at this time the ancient generals have already set off, and the prince should also enter the palace."
After thinking about it for some time, Fang Xiao lowered his eyes and said lightly: "Then wait for Ai's family to take a shower."
...
There is a hot spring bath hall in the palace, only the queen mother and others can enter, but now there is no queen, this bath is hers alone.
The light gauze in the hall was blowing, the fragrance was overflowing, and a layer of red petals floated on the warm spring water. Fang Yu took off his clothes and stepped in slowly. After the whole body was in the water, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Retreat," she said lightly.
When the words fell, several court ladies immediately stepped back and turned out of the hall.
Xuanyuan Yan had received a wish to enter the palace. He thought that the queen mother was just trying to discuss the candidate for marriage, but when he came to the Longevity Palace, he heard that the queen mother was bathing in Tangquan Hall.
"How long has the empress mother gone?" He glanced at the big lightly.
The latter immediately lowered his head and said respectfully: "If you return to the prince, the empress dowager has just left, so why don't the prince sit here for a while?"
The eunuch's forehead was full of sweat, and he was afraid that the master would not wait and see no one at that time, and the queen mother would lose his temper again.
After a pause, he just waved his hand, and then stepped out of the palace of longevity.
Seeing his leaving back, the patted his forehead with a sad look, he knew that the master would not wait!
When I arrived at Tangquan Temple, there were still a few guards guarding the door, but after seeing Xuanyuan Yan, they all knelt on one knee, "The slave knocks on the lord!"
Waving his hand, he glanced at the door of the palace and turned the jade finger on his hand casually, "Can the queen mother be inside?"
When the words fell, the guard nodded immediately.
Seeing this, Xuanyuan Yan suddenly pushed the hall door and walked directly in.
The guard outside looked shocked and dumbfounded.
After a while, the people inside walked out again, glanced at a few people with a smile, "What do you see?"
Meeting his cold gaze, several guards immediately shook their bodies, "The minion didn't see anything!"
They saw the regent peeking at the queen mother taking a bath!
After scanning a few people, Xuanyuan Yan walked in again. The next moment, the palace gate was closed silently by a big hand...
The author has something to say: Yes, such a sorrowful director came with memory!
(There was no memory before, it was all intuition.)
