Chapter 244: Incident

King Ning blew his beard and stared, with a bad tone, "Explain that your errands were not easy to handle, and found out so many reasons, presumptuous!"
Liu Zhao didn't move his eyebrows, "Father should know the difficulty of this matter best. Why is it troublesome for his son alone?"
King Ning snorted, "To share worries for this king, this is filial piety."
Liu Zhaoqing smiled coldly, "The son really wants to share the worries for the father and the king, but he can't help it. How about letting the fourth brother carry this burden?"
When Liu Yi heard this, he was immediately anxious.
Ask him to raise money to pay back the debts of the household department. How can he have this ability.
He hurriedly said: "As the eldest brother, he should set an example and set an example for the brothers."
Liu Zhao looked at Liu Yi with a faint smile, "The fourth brother has always said that he dare to do things, and he can do things. Now that your father has something to do, but you frequently turn down, what is the reason? Could it be that what you said before, just said That's it?"
Liu Yi hurriedly defended, "Big brother joked. My experience is too short, and my abilities are not good. How can I do things that my elder brother can't do well. Please don't embarrass me."
Liu Zhao looked back at King Ning again, "I ask my father to decide on this matter."
King Ning had a forehead to file a lawsuit, money and money, what a mess.
Pei whispered to Ning Wang, "Business in the south this year is not going well, with serious losses, and income is 20% less than last year."
King Ning frowned.
Concubine Shu hurriedly said: "For those who are celebrating the New Year, don't discuss horrible things. The household is owed. Since the emperor hasn't made any orders, don't scare yourself. Huyang, don't frown. The boat will be straight at the bridge. When the day comes, my palace will work out a solution with you."
Princess Huyang turned her sorrow into joy, "Thank you, mother and concubine."
The palace person came to report that the banquet had been prepared for everyone to go to Chenghui Hall.
Concubine Shu asked: "Your Majesty said, who will host the family dinner tonight?"
The palace man shook his head, "Your Majesty never said clearly."
Didn't say clearly, what does this mean?
Concubine Shu waved her hand to let the palace man retreat first.
She looked at King Ning, "How do you think about this?"
King Ning is not moving like a mountain, "I am not optimistic."
Concubine Shu frowned, "The imperial concubine has moved frequently recently. Tonight, the family banquet can be free, but what about the worship tomorrow? Empress Ruizhen Cui has passed away and ordered her to enter the palace. Should we go to Weiyang Palace to pay respects to the spirit card?"
King Ning said nonchalantly: "Mother concubine troubles herself."
Concubine Shu was furious, "This matter is related to the future of our mother and son, whether your offspring will fall into the dust or fly into the sky. You dare to say that the house is mediocre. It is more and more absurd in the house."
King Ning sat lazily, "Mother concubine really thinks, is it useful to fight for that position?"
Concubine Shu gave a cold snort, without making a sound.
King Ning said again: "Emperor father will not be arbitrarily manipulated. At this time, it is better to be quiet. And I see, the father does not necessarily have the idea of ​​setting up a queen."
Concubine Shu frowned, "If you don't register a queen, this harem..."
King Ning simply interrupted Concubine Shu’s words and said,
Queen Ruizhen Cui has passed away almost a year ago. The harem is still that harem. Is it because the harem is chaotic without the queen? Nowadays, no queen is good for everyone. ."
Concubine Shu frowned and thought deeply.
The hall was so quiet that needles fell.
Gu Jiu secretly looked at Liu Zhao.
Liu Zhao's face was serious, as if someone owed him five hundred taels.
Gu Jiu lowered his head, pondering.
It was the owes of the household department and the disputes in the harem, and there was more and more chaos in the court.
The prince was still sitting firmly in that position, no matter how many people attacked and slandered, they could not make the emperor make up his mind.
The world can see that the emperor doesn't like the prince, and he dislikes all kinds of princes.
So what is the emperor waiting for?
Why haven't you made up your mind?
Is he waiting for the prince to jump over the wall?
Are you taking this opportunity to observe the character of the princes?
Or, because Empress Ruizhen Cui let the prince keep his filial piety for three years, and the emperor keeps his promise, will he really give the prince three years?
But Guan Tianzi was not a person who kept his promises when he acted in the past.
It is the true temperament of the emperor to turn his face and be ruthless, and to repay any grudge.
Princess Huyang reminded everyone, "The banquet is ready, should we pass by?"
Concubine Shu of Dynasty Ning looked over.
Concubine Shu said, "No hurry."
King Ning waved, called a palace man, and said: "Pay attention to the movement of Concubine Xue. If the concubine is out, report it immediately."
The palace man led the order to retreat.
Concubine Shu laughed, and King Tongning said, "You think of it with this palace."
King Ning laughed, "The son will naturally share the worries for the mother and concubine."
It wasn't until Concubine Xue set off that Concubine Shu asked the palace people to prepare for a soft sedan chair to go to Chenghui Palace.
In Chenghui Hall, the lights are bright.
As soon as Concubine Shu entered the door, Concubine Xue greeted her with a smile.
"Concubine Shu, you can be regarded as coming, so I'm leaving you."
Concubine Shu's face was reserved, "Isn't your Majesty not here yet?"
"Oh? Concubine Shu wants to be later than your majesty? Your majesty will be there in a while, so I have to talk to your majesty."
Concubine Xue Gui was not smiling.
Concubine Shu's face was stern, "In the past, you liked to misinterpret other people's words, often out of nothing. After so many years, this problem has not changed."
Concubine Xue raised her eyebrows and smiled, and counterattacked: "Concubine Shu still speaks so directly. After so many years, how has your problem remained unchanged?"
Concubine Shu snorted coldly, not wanting to talk to Concubine Xue. Go straight to the end of the hall.
Rows of cases were neatly arranged, and everyone sat on the floor.
Gu Jiu separated from Liu Zhao, and went to the female family seat on the right, sitting behind the princess Pei.
Ouyang Fu and Xiao Qin'er are at the bottom of Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu wore a dark red curvy dress today without much modification. On the head is a set of red gold head jewelry.
On the wrist is a matching red gold bracelet.
Xiao Qin'er today has a set of jade head and face jewellery, a curvy dress embroidered with rich peonies, bright teeth and a sweet smile.
She looked forward, and she was surrounded by people she knew well.
Gu Jiu heard her mutter, "East Palace is also here."
Sure enough, the East Palace, led by the prince, all attended.
Everyone looked at the people in the East Palace, and the female relatives had to meet the prince princess and say a few greetings.
The princes were not so polite, and they had to ridicule the prince.
His Royal Highness coughed slightly, his face was pale, and his illness was not healed.
He ignored the cynicism of his brothers, and went straight to the front, sitting on the floor after the case.
The sons of the East Palace sat behind the prince.
Gu Jiu found that the arrival of the Prince's family changed the atmosphere of the hall.
Many people whispered and whispered, looking at the prince.
The prince was still as if he didn't know that the object of people's discussion was him.
It was the princess, who always bowed her head and sat with her hands down. The hands trapped in the sleeves were already clenched into fists.
"Your Majesty!"
As the servant sang and drank, the emperor arrived.
There was wind at the feet of the emperor, and he strode into the hall and walked towards the main seat.
Everyone got up and prepared to salute.
When Tianzi saw the prince, there was a noticeable meal under his feet, and then he came to the main seat casually and sat on the ground.
"See Father (Imperial Grandfather
"Free gift."
Concubine Shu and Concubine Xue were from left to right, attending the emperor's side.
In this way, there is no need to distinguish anyone. Everyone is the concubine of the emperor.
The emperor gave an order, "have a banquet!"
The palace maidens filed into the hall with wine and vegetables.
Gu Jiu looked at the cups and dishes in front of him. There was no difference between a royal family banquet and a palace banquet. In terms of the difference, at any rate the food and wine at the family banquet are warm, not cold.
Today is New Year’s Eve, the last day of the year.
The emperor is of good nature.
There were no outsiders present during the singing, dancing and banquet. All the members of the royal family were present, and the atmosphere quickly became lively.
King Zhao took the lead to get up and came to the prince's seat, "Brother, brother toast you a cup."
The prince is not doing well, the princess gets nervous first.
The prince was pale, and coughed twice, "Brother toast, I should drink it. It's just that my palace is unwell, and the emperor told me not to drink. Please forgive me."
Wang Zhao immediately became dissatisfied, "Is the eldest brother despising my brother? I refuse to drink a glass of wine?"
"It's not that you refuse to drink, but you can't drink." The prince's voice was full of weakness.
Wang Zhao's face was stern, "The prince looks down on me, brother, and thinks that I am vulgar and unworthy of drinking with you, right?"
The prince denied, "This palace has absolutely no such idea."
"Then you drink it."
King Zhao stared at the prince, insisting on forcing the prince to drink.
Teng!
Huang Changsun stood up suddenly, "I drink with Uncle Wang."
Zhao Wang laughed and pointed to the emperor's grandson, "Huangkou Xiaoer, step back."
The eldest grandson was furious, "Uncle Wang looks down on his nephew?"
King Zhao's eyes were like eagle falcons, and he looked at the emperor's grandson from start to finish, "You are not worthy of the king to toast."
"My nephew respects Uncle Wang." The emperor's eldest grandson held up the wine glass and respected it.
King Zhao didn't like him, he only stared at the prince, "Does the prince really want the emperor's grandson to drink this glass of wine for you?"
The prince coughed until he couldn't speak.
"I'll drink it for him."
With a loud shout, the princess stood up.
"Is it qualified for my palace to drink this glass of wine for the prince?"
Wang Zhao looked back at the princess, and laughed, "Sister-in-law can drink this glass of wine for the prince. Come on, brother and sister-in-law."
The princess picked up the wine glass and drank it in one fell swoop.
King Zhao also drank the wine in the glass and showed the bottom of the glass to show that the wine in the glass was finished.
He looked back at the prince again, and laughed, the laughter was mostly mocking. The dignified prince, actually wants a woman to drink alcohol, haha, the prince is just that capable.
The prince's eyes looked towards the princess, his eyes were too complicated and full of emotions.
From beginning to end, the emperor did not intervene in this matter. I watched from the wall the whole time, watching all this indifferently.
Gu Jiu looked around, and when Tianzi looked at the prince, his eyes were obviously disappointed.
What disappointed?
Disappointed that the prince did not drink?
Or is the disappointed prince unable to cope with such a small problem?
Gu Jiu said in his heart: The prince is in danger.
Perhaps in three years, the emperor will abolish the prince.
Zhao Wang opened his head, and the princes and princes shuttled among the dancers, looking for people to drink.
The scene was lively and casual.
King Ning ran to the emperor and said he wanted to toast.
The emperor rarely gave King Ning a good face and drank half a cup.
King Ning still didn't know what was interesting, "Why does the father only drink half a cup?"
The emperor glanced at King Ning coldly, and said concisely, "Go away!"
King Ning really rolled away.
Gu Jiu felt amused at this scene.
But when Liu Zhao waited for the emperor and grandson to come forward to toast, the emperor had a pleasant face and his eyes were kind.
Sure enough, it is a generational pro.
King Ning complained below, "The old man is too eccentric to look at him."
Xiao Qin'er beside Gu Jiu pouring and drinking by himself is also happy.
When the wine was hot, she raised her glass, "Sister-in-law, I toast you."
Gu Jiu smiled, "Thank you, brother and sister. Today is a royal family dinner. Don't get drunk."
Xiao Qin'er snorted, "I don't know how to drink. My sister-in-law just talks a lot."
Gu Jiu didn't care and took a drink.
Xiao Qin'er ran to the front again with the wine glass, and the princess toasted.
At this time, an attendant hurriedly came to Chen Jianzheng Chen Dachang and said a few words in his ear.
Chen Dachang's face changed slightly.
The princess, who had always been quiet, glanced at Chen Dachang calmly. The fists trapped in the sleeves of his clothes were also released, and a smile appeared on his face.
When Gu Jiu noticed this scene, he suddenly had a bad feeling.
She looked across, searching for Liu Zhao's figure.
Liu Zhao was being surrounded by people to toast and couldn't get away.
When Chen Dachang walked to the emperor, Gu Jiu clenched his fists, feeling a little nervous inexplicably.
She glanced around her eyes, and it seemed that many people hadn't noticed the waiter who had just come in, and were only busy drinking.
Will something happen?
Could something happen to the court?
Where is the natural disaster?
Gu Jiu held up the wine glass, covered the corners of his lips, paying attention to the emperor's side quietly.
Chen Dachang came to the emperor and whispered in his ears.
Concubine Xue and Concubine Shu on both sides did not pay attention to this matter. Even if you pay attention, you don't dare to listen upright.
Gu Jiu clearly saw that as Chen Dachang finished speaking, the emperor, who was in a good mood, suddenly had clouds on his face. There is a big disagreement, it is necessary to kill.
Gu Jiu's heart jumped, it's over, it's over, something must have happened.
She continued to hide her face with her sleeves, only showing her eyes, paying attention to the movements of the emperor.
I saw the gaze of the emperor, and looked at them first.
Gu Jiu was shocked. Could it be that something happened to Prince Ning's Mansion.
Take a closer look, the emperor's eyes are not looking at the row of them, but at the princess Huyang.
Immediately afterwards, the emperor looked at Chen Fuma who was sitting at the end again.
Gu Jiu's wine cup almost landed.
Princess Huyang and Chen Fuma?
What did these two people commit? So that the emperor's eyes seemed to eat people.
Gu Jiu was anxious.
Although the princess of Huyang is bitter, she must not fall into trouble at this time.
She could not remind King Ning and Liu Zhao, so she had to remind Princess Pei who was sitting in front of her.
Gu Jiu got up, came to Pei's side, and whispered: "Qi to the princess, your Majesty just looked at Aunt Huyang and Chen Luma, it seems there is a crisis."
Princess Pei was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously looked at the emperor, and she saw that the emperor's eyes contained anger.
She asked Gu Jiu, "You read that right, it's really Huyang and Luma?"
Gu Jiu solemnly nodded his head, "I did not read it wrong. I also ask the empress to find a way to remind the father."
Pei waved his hand to make Gu Jiu back down.
She was also a little confused. While gloating at misfortune, she was worried that she would be implicated in Prince Ning's Mansion.
After thinking about it, let's remind King Ning that it is important first.
Concubine Xue Gui was keen, and was the first to notice that the emperor’s mood was not right, so she asked: "Your Majesty is unwell?
The emperor poured a glass of wine and shook his head slightly.
boom!
The wine glass in the hands of the emperor fell to the ground.
Everyone was shocked.
King Ning complained: "What is the old man going crazy again."
The emperor's eyes pointed directly at Chen Fu Ma Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuanzheng was uncomfortable, sitting still for a long time, and his lower limbs were numb. His injuries worsened, like torture.
Suddenly, the musician stopped playing, and the dancer retreated to the side. Everyone's eyes followed the eyes of the emperor to him.
He panicked and his hands were messed up. The cups and dishes on the table fell to the ground, making a loud noise.
Now, he was even more nervously sweating.
"Emperor, Emperor..."
King Ning suddenly asked, "What does the father mean?"
"Shut up for me. I will settle accounts with you later." The emperor sternly rebuked King Ning.
Pei was terrified.
what happened? What did the Huyang Princess and her husband commit?
"Chen Yuan!"
"The minister is here!"
Chen Fu Ma immediately got up from his position, walked forward, and bowed down in the middle of the hall.
The emperor laughed in anger, "I heard that you spend money like water, and you really deserve it."
Chen Fuma was frightened and sweaty, "The minister is convicted."
Princess Huyang's palms were sweating, her face was pale, she frequently looked at King Ning and Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu shook her head slightly, beckoning her to stay calm.
"A few days ago, Xiuyiwei arrested a group of tomb robbers. According to this group, the proceeds from their tomb robbing were all sold by the Chen family in the capital. He also said that there is a large tomb below, which was also informed by the Chen family. Even they can work together. The action was also due to the protection of the Chen family's consort. I didn't know that the dignified consort had the ability to find the big tomb."
As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the hall was shocked.
