Chapter 396

Emperor Duanhua thought that wasn’t nonsense? Carelessly, he said, “Naturally, the punishment is severe.”

But how a severe punishment method, he did not have the intention to say in detail – Empress Su knew that this is because the emperor is not so good for his own feelings, lazy more words, also do not think that, only cover the throat cough a few times, raspy voice, “I have no other meaning, just want to ask what to do with the A Xu? ”

“I have already discussed this matter with my royal grandmother and the royal aunt of Jin, and for the sake of the two Jian cousins, I don’t intend to do it openly.” Emperor Duanhua said, “In the open, let the Lu family take the blame.”

The reason why they are looking for the Lu family to take the blame is because Wei Xi’s “thorough investigation” proved that Lu Huanquan had indeed seduced the Princess of Yushan’s palace maid, Xi Yu. The reason why they are looking for the Lu family to take the blame is because for one thing, Wei Xi’s “thorough investigation” proved that Lu listened to Quan did seduce the palace maid of the eldest princess of Yushan, Xi Yu, and thus instigated the young princess Yi Wang to poison Jane Qing Yue in the name of the eldest princess. Only Lu listen to the spring originally did not have the courage to do so, is Jane Li Kuang gave him confidence and courage.

Otherwise, Lu listen to the spring at least also have a dozen years old, and is not not long brain, even if the resentment of Song Yixiao, even for aunt Lu is the murder of Wei Mengying’s real culprits, want to cut off the root and branch – plotting to murder Yan State Lady and plotting to murder Yan State Duke between the difference between him, how can he not figure out clearly?

Especially with smallpox, this behavior once known, he is the crown prince can not hold!

Without the support of Jian Li Kuang, Jian Xu Bai’s own father, how would he have the guts to risk his family’s future and even their lives?

Secondly, Lu Yicheng was dead and rumors of Su Shaoge and Song Yixiao were spread before his death, making Emperor Duanhua very angry.

So, Jane Ping Yu and Jane Li Kuang this pair of “real killer” can not be announced, smallpox to close the case, but there must be a murderer, Duanhua Emperor decisively thought of the Lu family.

“Your Majesty, but you do not intend to let Jian Ping Yu and Jian Li Kuang live?” Empress Su nodded at her words and asked bluntly.

Seeing Emperor Duanhua’s admission, Empress Su pondered and said, “Then I’m going to be honest: this is too much of a disadvantage for A Xu!”

Duanhua Emperor said, “A Xu has indeed suffered a great deal this time, and even Song younger siblings have … also been wronged.”

“I am not talking about this!” After all, Empress Su’s voice was not fully healed, and she could not support herself after barely saying these words, so she had to point to the eldest princess Changxing, signaling her to say it.

Changxing came forward and said, “Brother, it is like this: mother just listened to me say the real murderer, said Jane aunt father did such a heavenly anger and human hatred of things to, is brother benevolence can not keep him! But A Xu has no children, Cousin Song’s wife was in mourning at the beginning of the year, and she will not be able to leave until the end of this year. This time Jane aunt father if he is no longer, no matter for what reason no, A Xu and Song cousin sister-in-law as a son in law, how can not for him to guard for three years? In that case, when will the Duke of Yan’s residence be able to have a little son?”

He added, “Of course, it is said that a son is born for three years, and then he is spared from his parents’ arms. It’s only natural for children to mourn for their parents for three years! But think about it, Aunt Jane did this to A Xu’s family, but it is really sad! If we still ask A Xu’s family to keep mourning for his death for three years, even if A Xu’s family doesn’t feel aggrieved, you think A Xu was raised by the Royal Grandmother, and how can the Royal Grandmother not feel sorry for him when she looks at him? Royal grandmother, in the end older, this year and has not heard a few pieces of good news, mother so I thought, is not … for A Xu consider?”

Duanhua Emperor stared for a moment and looked deeply at Empress Su, “What Mother Mother has considered is extremely true, but I have been negligent!”

“Imperial brother is the lord of the world, he is in charge of everything, some small matter, originally shouldn’t ask you to worry about it.” Changxing on behalf of Empress Su humbly said, “However, mother only feels that it is not a solution for A Xu to keep on keeping the filial piety and remain childless, as for what exactly to do about this, we have no idea! But no matter what, it’s impossible to just let the culprit who harmed the second prince go–this matter still needs to be decided by imperial brother!”

Emperor Duanhua said noncommittally, “As you also said, A Xu was raised by the Imperial Grandmother, his matter, I thought that it would be better to report to the Imperial Grandmother and ask her old man to decide!”

After … a few moments after Duanhua Emperor retired and left, Empress Su and Changxing Changprincess coincidentally breathed a sigh of relief.

Changxing asked with some trepidation, “Mother, do you think this will work out?”

“Eight out of ten . Nine is no problem.” Empress Su’s mouth changed, silently “said”, “The Empress Dowager has always favored A Xu, as you know, A Xu has been married for three years, but only has one daughter in her lap – especially this time, both father and daughter were infected with smallpox, but thanks to that, they both survived! If anything goes wrong, the Empress Dowager will have to pay for it! If there is a failure, the Empress Dowager is afraid to …”

She shook her head and continued, “After all this, both the Dowager Empress and the Grand Princess of Jin must be anxious for him to have a son as soon as possible!”

After a pause, he added, “This is also the Empress Dowager and the Grand Princess of Jin’s heart, their own early years have suffered, do not want to add to the head of the younger generation. In other words, if you are a mother-in-law or an elder, even if it’s my condolences, you have to persuade Song to take a concubine, so that you can spread your wings! After all, now from the end of the year is still half a year light, Song’s into the door said three years, but from the middle of last year all the way to now, expect her to give birth to a son, the earliest will be the second half of next year! In the middle of this time, a few good concubines will be able to land several concubine sons and daughters!”

Since the Empress Dowager and the Grand Princess of Jin do not intend to interfere in Jian Xu Bai’s backyard, they can only hope that Song Yixiao will be able to leave her mother’s home at the end of the year, so that she can live in the same room with her husband, but there may not be any news about the couple immediately after they live together. But after the two couples live together, there may not be news immediately.

“This situation the Dowager Empress and the Grand Princess of Jin must feel very anxious, the problem is that this time the smallpox matter has folded the Second Prince in, how do you think the Emperor can swallow this? He will never agree to spare the Jian family father and son, and won’t even tolerate them for too long!” Empress Su took the loquat dew handed by her daughter and moistened her throat, continuing to “say” in a silent voice, “Then what should we do? The Jian family’s father and son must die, and A Xu’s heir must also be considered – apart from what Old Lady Duanmu said, what else can be done?”

“The only plan today is to pass on.” At this moment, where the Empress Dowager resided, Emperor Duanhua, who had gone and returned, relayed Empress Su’s considerations, and silence fell in the room.

After a long time, in the end, or the Empress Dowager spoke first, to not yet left the daughter of the Grand Princess of Jin, said, “Good thing that A Xu also has a third uncle, and his third uncle’s knees have no children and has always treated him well, if the A Xu passed on to Jane Li Miao’s knees, then Jane Li Kuang will become A Xu’s uncle – so only need to serve his filial piety for one year, which is shorter than three years of mourning! He only needs to serve one year of filial piety, which is shorter than three years of filial piety!”

But Jian Xubai is ultimately the son of the Grand Princess of Jin, and still extraordinarily favored son, even if this proposal is the Empress Dowager, this will not be able to help but add a sentence, “Of course, the A Xu couple are still young, this time, although by Jane’s family father and son with smallpox backstabbing to the end of the day is also on the mend. There is a saying that a great disaster must be blessed later, really let them keep on three years, the future will certainly have children and grandchildren. The reason why the Emperor brought the Empress Dowager’s words here, but also just heartbroken A Xu! There is absolutely no intention to force you to nod your head!”

Emperor Duanhua also said: ”What Imperial Grandmother said is very true! Just now, the Empress Mother only said that she was concerned about Cousin A Xu’s heir – I think that if I allow Jane Ping Yu and Jane Li Kuang to get away for another year and a half, perhaps Cousin A Xu will have an heir again.”

“They have done such evil deeds, if they get away with it again, who knows if they will do even more heartless deeds?” The Grand Princess of Jin had been in the palace for a long time, how could she still not see that Emperor Duanhua was just being polite?

In the end the one who died young was the Emperor’s own son!

The emperor is willing to be concerned about her aunt face does not look good, willing to quietly end the case, and does not involve her, has been to give her face.

This will be if again for the son of the Grand Princess of Jin’s son of the heir to consider, told the emperor to bear the hatred of harming his son, this is also too stomping on the face!

That is, when her brother, Emperor Xianjia, who had shared the same suffering, was around, the Grand Princess of Jin would not have done such a thing, not to mention that the emperor of this would just be her nephew.

So the grand eldest princess looked complicated for a moment, closed her eyes and said, “Jane Ping Yu and Jane Li Kuang or dispose of as early as possible good – as for the A Xu couple, they are always mourning, really bad, not only the mother is anxious, I am also anxious, just according to the mother, let him pass on to the three of Jane’s next bar! ”

After a pause, “Over the years, Jian Li Kuang has never done his duty as a father to him, but it is Jian San who loves A Xu very much. I have always been worried that after my departure, what if Jian Li Kuang uses filial piety to control A Xu? Now that I think about it, this method is the best.”

Speaking here thoughtfully, he glanced at the Emperor, “That the Empress Dowager can still think of A-Hu like this in the midst of being bedridden and ill really puts me to shame – I’ve been so attached to A-Hu lately that I haven’t even gone to visit her!”

“After all, Empress Mother is also A Xu’s aunt.” Emperor Duanhua didn’t have any suspicions, he thought that Empress Dowager Su purposely called out to herself to say something like that, nominally for the Empress Dowager and Jian Xubai’s consideration, but in reality it was for the sake of easing the relationship with him as the Emperor.

After all, he was also concerned about Jane Void White.

And the empress dowager also has reason to need to understand with the Duanhua emperor, after all, not to mention the old scores, let alone she will this hanging beam move, very let the Duanhua emperor woeful.

Of course, the Empress Dowager did it to protect her nephew: King Liang proposed to link the smallpox incident to King Su Xiang, and before Lu Yicheng died, he wrote a bloody letter saying that Su Shaoge had seduced Yan’s wife, Song Yixiao – in Empress Dowager Su’s view, how could she not be worried about her family and her son?

As a first mother without a backer, the only thing the Empress Dowager could threaten Emperor Duanhua with was filial piety.

Just as Su Shaoge said, the constraints of reputation are just that. Emperor Xianjia, who single-handedly trained Emperor Duanhua, is a typical example, so after Emperor Duanhua personally came to the couch to ask for forgiveness, saying that he absolutely did not believe in Lu Yicheng’s nonsense, he politely hinted that he would not move King Su and the Su family – at least not for the time being.

So how could the Empress Dowager continue to put on the airs of a first mother and enjoy the empress’s hospitality? That must be the opposite of smoothing out the empress’s grievances and pain.

Just now the Empress Dowager also has nothing to do for the Emperor and Queen, can only be concerned about Jian Xubai, euphemistically help the end of the Emperor’s anger: Jane’s family in the early years of some of the grudges and feuds, Su Empress Dowager knows, the end of the Emperor also knows.

The person who is most angry about passing Jian Xubai to Jane Li Miao may not be Jane Li Kuang, but I am afraid that it is still Jane Ping Yu.

And the culprit that Emperor Duanhua suspected was none other than Jian Pingyu.

Emperor Duanhua thought he saw his first mother’s careful plan, but he was not surprised, after all, he was also happy to see it happen.

“That’s true!” When the Grand Princess of Jin saw Emperor Duanhua speak like this, she didn’t pursue the matter after a pause, and after her eyes drifted off for a moment, she said, “But it’s still something that Your Majesty will have to worry about!”
