Chapter 344 Support the troops and respect themselves
"Your Majesty, nothing will happen to us!"
On the way back to Beijing, King Wei Liu Yu and Princess Wei rode in a carriage together.
Princess Wei looked worried and very uneasy.
King Wei Liu Yu ignored the severe cold of the first month and kept looking out the window. After a while, he said aloud: "I have been keeping my peace, what can happen?"
"But, King Wu's side..."
"The King of Wu is the first one, and the King of Wu has nothing to do with us. You must always keep this in mind. Even if His Majesty wants to settle old scores, he will be the first to attack the King of Wu. Who is the most annoying to the King of Wu, we have been fighting to the end. Let's talk about it.
, it’s all the late emperor’s fault. If he had been willing to establish a heir early, it would never have been the third son’s turn to become emperor.”
What a fuss!
Now, all that's left is sighing.
Night after night, Wei Wang Liu Yu sighed countless times. The late emperor was so confused! Even though his body was in such a state of collapse, he still believed that he could live another twenty years and was still taking pills in the hope of living a long life.
In the end, he died quietly, without even a word or explanation, and he just left.
He hated him countless times!
If the late emperor had left a legacy before his death, it might be unclear who the throne would belong to.
Princess Wei was uneasy, especially because the angry look of King Wei Liu Yu frightened her. She could only hide in the corner of the carriage, like a pitiful creature.
"Why are you making such an expression? I don't know how to eat people. My mother-in-law said that you are dignified and quiet, but now it seems that you are too quiet. I can't count on you for my affairs. I just ask you not to give me anything.
Adding chaos."
"promise!"
"If you were half as capable as the Queen, I wouldn't be so miserable!" Wei Wang Liu Yu said with emotion.
Princess Wei's face turned red. She was so embarrassed and embarrassed that she could only remain silent.
Deep down in her heart, Liu Yu really disliked her own princess. Her family background and status were adequate, but her temperament was too quiet and peaceful, and she lacked ideas. She was not as good at socializing and entertaining as Princess Wu Sun, nor did she have many of the skills of the empress.
He sighed countless times, why did his mother-in-law choose such a princess back then? It was so inappropriate.
As everyone knows, Concubine Yang chose a princess with a quiet temper because she knew her son too well and was too deep-minded.
…
Back in the capital, the white lanterns have been taken down and the capital has returned to its former lively scene.
The concubines moved out of the palace with their children, and it was a mess again.
Empress Dowager Zhang invited Concubine Yuan to Changle Palace to speak.
Looking at Concubine Yuan's young face and childish eyes, Empress Dowager Zhang couldn't help but sigh, the late emperor committed a crime!
"Ms. Yuan, have you received any letters from your brother Yuan Youren recently?"
"To report to the Queen Mother, I have not received any letters from my brother since the twelfth lunar month."
Empress Dowager Zhang half-smiled, "The news of the late emperor's death was sent to Nanzhao at an urgent speed of 800 miles, and then returned at an urgent speed of 800 miles. It has been almost a month, so it stands to reason that there should be a reply!"
Concubine Yuan was so frightened that her little face turned pale, "I have indeed not received a letter from my brother. I dare not lie to you. I ask the Queen Mother to take a closer look."
"Don't worry, I'm not doubting you. I'm doubting your old and cunning brother. What tricks is he playing? If he wants to have an army to respect himself, it's just a dream. When the imperial army arrives, he will immediately
and his followers will be wiped out!"
Concubine Yuan was so frightened that she trembled and said, "Please forgive me, Queen Mother! Perhaps it was because of the delay on the road that my brother's letter has not arrived. I believe that my brother will not do stupid things and he will definitely listen to the imperial court's orders."
"
"Yeah?"
"I will definitely obey the imperial court's orders."
"Why should he obey the imperial court's orders?" Empress Dowager Zhang sneered, "Is it just you? You think too highly of yourself."
Concubine Yuan was so speechless that she was so sad.
She wanted to defend herself, but her words seemed so feeble. Yes, her brother was leading troops outside. If he really wanted to support his troops and respect himself, why should he care about her? He would get married and have children, so she really wasn't that important.
Especially after the death of the late emperor, she became increasingly insignificant.
At this time, a palace official came running in from outside, came to Queen Mother Zhang and whispered a few words in her ear.
Queen Mother Zhang raised her eyebrows and waved her hand to dismiss the palace attendants.
She said to Concubine Yuan: "I have just received news that there was a riot in Yanding in Huaibei, and Yuan Youren's henchman Cui Daqi was beaten to death with sticks. You should be familiar with Cui Daqi, who is responsible for collecting the salt tax and purchasing grain and grass to transport to Nanzhao.
Now, he was beaten to death with a stick, which is a big deal. This means that the courtiers' counterattack against Yuan Youren has finally begun. You will definitely be implicated. Do you still want to hide this from me now? "
