Chapter 717

Gao Song was bought by the court with the intention of harming Yun Qing, and the news spread back to Hao City, causing an uproar.

Regarding this matter, Yuxi felt that there was an inside story: "Not to mention that the prince is surrounded by experts, and the guards are also carefully selected. It is only said that the prince himself is very skilled in martial arts, and it is difficult for ordinary people to get close to him." Will want to assassinate Yunqing.

Xu Wu said: "The news from Jiangnan is like this. As for whether there is something wrong, the prince knows best about it." What Xu Wu meant was for Yuxi to write to Yunqing.

Yu Xi thought for a while and said, "You write to ask Si Bonian." As Yunqing's personal guard, Si Bonian must know about this.

Xu Wu asked with some confusion: "Why didn't the concubine ask the prince directly?" Just ask the prince directly, why bother to make a detour.

Under normal circumstances, Yunqing would definitely tell her about it in a letter, but it turned out that Yunqing didn't mention the matter of loosening in his reply this time. Based on Yuxi's understanding of Yunqing, unless she is involved in this matter, Yunqing will not stop talking. Yuxi thought for a while and said: "I have a feeling that this matter about Gao Song may have something to do with me."

Xu Wu was very surprised: "How can this matter have something to do with you, the princess? Have you thought too much?" Gao Song and the princess are at odds!

Yu Xi shook her head and said: "If you ask Si Bonian, you will know if I am overthinking." Although she also thinks it is impossible, after all, she has nothing to do with Gao Song. But there are some things that cannot be deduced with common sense.

Although he felt that Yu Xi's idea was a bit inexplicable, Xu Wu still nodded and said: "Okay, I'll write to ask Si Bonian right now."

Just as he was talking, he heard Xu Daniu raise his voice and say: "Princess, Gao Song's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Xie, brought her children and knelt at the gate of the palace to cry for grievances, saying that she wanted to see the concubine."

Yu Xi said to Xu Wu: "You go and solve this matter!" Although she thought there was something inside this matter, one thing is certain, Gao Song must have made a big mistake and touched Yun Qing's Ni Lin. Otherwise, with Yunqing's temperament, at most Gao Song would be dismissed and investigated, and Gao Song would not be executed.

Seeing Xu Wu, Mrs. Xie knelt on the ground and cried, "Master Xu, my master must have been wronged. Please let me see the princess." Mrs. Xie didn't believe that her husband would do such a rebellious thing. Gao Song was framed.

Xu Wu didn't let his mother-in-law help Mrs. Xie up, and said expressionlessly: "Gao Song intends to harm the lord, and it's not an exaggeration to divide the body by five horses. Leaving him a whole body is already an extrajudicial favor from the lord."

Xie cried and said, "Impossible. My lord respects the lord the most, how could it be against the lord. Mr. Xu, there must be something inside this matter, my lord must have been framed."

Xu Wu said coldly: "This is what the prince himself said. You mean that the prince framed Gao Song?" There are a hundred ways for the prince to kill Gao Song, and there is no need to spend so much trouble.

Xie was a little flustered, shaking his head while crying and said: "Master Xu, the prince must have made a mistake, my master will not harm the prince. Master Xu, please let me see the princess! The princess must be able to see clearly. , to avenge my master."

Xu Wu didn't bother to talk to her, and said: "For the sake of your orphans and widows, I won't pursue what happened just now. But if you dare to kneel again, I will directly put you in prison." After finishing speaking , Let the mother-in-law drag Xie out.

Xu Daniu hesitated for a while and said, "Boss, do you think Gao Song was really bought by the court?"

Xu Wu said: "This is a matter for the lord to make a final decision. Don't you think the lord is wronging him?"

Xu Daniu shook his head and said: "I don't dare to doubt the prince. I feel that the world is impermanent. After a while, Gao Song actually rebelled and dared to try to harm the prince. Those people in the court,

The means are really too powerful. "It made him a little terrified.

Seeing this, Xu Wu said: "As long as you act upright and sit upright, and don't get caught by them, no matter how tricky these people are, they can't do anything to you." Who can listen to orders.

Xu Daniu heheed twice and said: "Beauty, it's not so easy to bear." He was envious of Gao Song and Yu Cong who could hug each other before! Now I have no idea.

Xu Wu looked at his stupid look, and said: "Do your job well, don't let people take advantage of your loopholes, I have to return to Wangfei."

Hearing Mr. Xie say that Gao Song was framed, Yuxi shook her head and said, "As long as Gao Song can care about his wife and children, he would not do such a thing." Open the door of convenience, but the evidence is conclusive. Even if there was no folding fan incident, in order to scare the chickens and monkeys, Yunqing would still focus on Gao Song.

Xu Wu said: "He is relieved when he dies, but leaving Mrs. Xie and the children behind will suffer." If Gao Song dies in battle, not only will he receive a generous pension, but his children will also receive various preferential treatment. But now that Gao Song died so disgracefully, life for his wife and children would be difficult.

Yu Xi glanced at Xu Wu, and said: "Although Gao Song is dead, his family has to be dealt with according to the law." Gao Song's crime is treason, which is a serious crime that implicates the three clans. But Gao Song has no relatives anymore, so only his wife and children are involved.

Xu Wu was stunned for a moment, and quickly said, "Princess, isn't this a little too cruel?" Even if he defected in Yucheng, his family would be discriminated against and looked down upon by everyone, and he would not be punished. It is equivalent to saying that I made a mistake and did not implicate my family.

Yuxi said: "It's not lynching, but dealing with it according to the law. Even if it is cruel, it is Gao Song's own fault." After a pause, Yuxi said: "So this person really can't make a mistake. Otherwise , not only did he die, but his wife and children were also implicated."

Although Xu Wu couldn't bear it, he didn't ask for mercy. The state has national laws, and those who violate the laws must be punished.

Two days later, Mrs. Lin begged to see Yuxi.

Hearing Xu Wu's report, Yu Xi said with a displeased face: "Mr. Lin, do you have to hand over the post first when asking for an interview?" Everyone who came to ask for an interview had to hand over the post first, which is the minimum etiquette. Of course, unless it's a close relative, then you don't have to.

Xu Wu said: "Maybe there is some urgent matter?" He couldn't figure out how Mrs. Lin, who had been in Pick City for so many years, didn't even know the etiquette of paying a post when meeting a princess, and he didn't know what she had been doing all these years. up.

Yuxi smiled and said: "What urgent matter do you think she can have?" Lin is just a woman in the house, and she doesn't touch the outside world, so what big things can happen.

Xu Wu blushed a little.

Yuxi said: "I still have a bunch of papers that I haven't reviewed yet, so I don't have time to see her. Go and see what's up with her?" It doesn't mean that she will see her if she wants to see her.

Xu Wu nodded and said, "Okay."

Before Xu Wu could go out, Tan Tuo came over. Xu Wu greeted Tan Tuo and left the yard.

When he arrived at the living room and looked at the haggard Lin, Xu Wuxing saluted and said, "Sister-in-law, the princess is talking to Mrs. Tan, and I don't know when we will talk about it. Sister-in-law, if you have anything to say, you can tell me first, and I will report back later." .”

Lin pursed her lips and said, "Then I'll wait here."

Xu Wu said: "Sister-in-law, the concubine can't finish talking with Lord Tan in one or two hours."

Lin straightened her waist and said, "I can wait."

This attitude clearly shows that he doesn't trust him, and Xu Wu feels a little uncomfortable. But for Yu Cong's sake, he didn't care about Lin's: "When the princess finishes talking with Mrs. Tan, I will report back to the princess immediately."

Lin nodded: "Then I will trouble you."

Xu Wu said with a smile: "We are all one family, sister-in-law is too out of touch."

Yuxi talked with Tan Tuo for nearly half an hour before finishing. After Tan Tuo went out, Yu Xi asked Xu Wu: "What's the matter with Mrs. Lin coming to see me?"

Xu Wu smiled wryly and said: "She doesn't want to tell me, she insists on seeing Wangfei. Wangfei, see if you can see her."

Yu Xi knocked on the table and said, "Did Lin know about Yu Cong taking a concubine in the south of the Yangtze River?" It's normal for Lin to know.

Xu Wu felt that it was unlikely: "If he wants to ask about this, he can just ask me directly. Why insist on seeing the princess?"

Yu Xi shook her head slightly and said: "She's afraid that if she asks you, you will help Yu Cong hide it." Xu Wu has a good relationship with Yu Cong, and it is precisely because of this that Lin is worried.

Xu Wu thought of Lin's temperament, and asked: "Princess, if she really asks about this matter, Wangfei must not tell her the truth." After a pause, Xu Wu said: "With her temperament, If you find out, I'm afraid it will turn the world upside down."

Yu Xi laughed, and that smile was full of sarcasm: "If you can hide it for a while, you can't hide it forever. When the children of those two women are born, can Yu Cong not bring them back?" Yu Cong wants a child of his own, which is understandable , but he shouldn't hide it from Lin.

Xu Wu also had some headaches, and said: "Until Yu Cong comes back, this matter has to be kept secret." When Yu Cong comes back, how to tell Lin is his business.

Yu Xi asked suddenly: "When did you know about Yu Cong taking a concubine?" Xu Wu didn't tell her about it, Yu Xi knew about it from Yang Duoming.

Xu Wu said with some shame: "I knew about it a month ago, and I didn't know how to talk to the princess at that time." This delay has dragged on until now.

Yuxi laughed a little and said: "It's not that the prince is taking concubines in the south of the Yangtze River, what's wrong with you?" As long as it's not Yunqing taking concubines, it doesn't matter to her that other men take concubines.

Xu Wu said: "It's my fault." It happened that Yu Xi talked about the dangers of generals taking concubines, and Xu Wu swallowed the words when they came to his lips. He wrote to persuade Yu Cong, but Yu Cong wrote back saying that he wanted his own child. It's about his heirs, so he can't say anything more. This delay has been delayed until now.

As Yu Xi expected, Lin's request to see Yu Xi was really a matter of taking a concubine for Yu Cong.

Although there is such a guess, Yu Xi still finds it absurd when she heard Lin ask whether Yu Cong is taking a concubine in the south of the Yangtze River. Taking a concubine is a private matter, and she even asked her to come here. She is in charge of the world, and she can still control whether her subordinates take a concubine.

Yu Xi shook her head and said, "I don't know if General Yu has concubines in Jiangnan."

Lin's eyes turned red: "Princess, you and I are both women, I just ask you to give me an accurate answer."

If it was ten years ago, seeing Lin's appearance like this, Yu Xi might still feel sympathy. But now, Yuxi couldn't feel the slightest disturbance in her heart: "General Yu is far away in the south of the Yangtze River. I am so busy that I don't touch the ground on weekdays. How can I have time to pay attention to matters such as whether General Yu takes concubines or not."

Lin looked at Yuxi, saw that Yuxi's expression was as usual and her eyes did not dodge in any way, and she also believed Yuxi's words: "Princess, please help me find out if Yu Cong really took a concubine in Jiangnan .”

Yuxi was speechless when she heard this, and even asked her to help find out the news, who does Lin think she is? Well, it's completely against me to care about Lin's. Yu Xi nodded and said: "Okay, I will let people inquire."

Lin stood up and gave a blessing, and said: "I also know that it's wrong to talk about the princess, but I really have no one to turn to. If there is something inappropriate, please don't blame the princess."

The words were all finished by Lin, if she blamed her, she wouldn't look too petty. But Yuxi also knew that Lin was not good at talking, and didn't care about her. After weighing it in her heart, Yu Xi asked: "What if you find out that General Yu is really taking a concubine in the south of the Yangtze River?"

Lin Shi froze when she heard this. After a long time, Mrs. Lin said in a low voice: "My father didn't want to marry me to him at the time. He knelt on the ground and made an oath, saying that I would be the only one in this life. If I violated the oath, I would be pierced by ten thousand arrows." If you die with your heart, you will go to the eighteen levels of hell after death."

Seeing this, Yu Xi smiled wryly. Women, are always moved by a man's oath. But how many men can keep the oath? In the end, the woman is indulging in pain, but the man hugs left and right to enjoy the happiness of everyone.

After a while, Yuxi said: "Don't be sad, I just said just in case. General Yu has a deep affection for you, I can see it all, he will definitely not do anything to sorry you. "

Lin hummed: "I believe him too."

If you really believed in Yu Cong, it would be impossible to come to her and ask her. Yuxi said with a smile: "It's good if you can think like this. In another three months at most, they will be back."

Mrs. Lin didn't seem to hear Yu Xi's words, looked up at Yu Xi and said: "But everything is contingency, if he really takes a concubine in the south of the Yangtze River and has a child, I will show him to death." , How could she not know that Yu Cong wanted a child of her own. As long as she thought of another woman giving birth to her husband's child, she had the urge to destroy everything. It was also because of this idea that Lin did not want Yu Cong to have a concubine and have children. Because she was afraid that she would not be able to resist strangling the child to death. In order not to commit murder, she stopped Yu Cong from taking a concubine with all her might.

Yuxi was stunned for two seconds when she heard this, and then came back to her senses and said: "Even if Yu Cong takes a concubine, you can't just think about dying! What will you do if your child dies? A motherless child is a grass, you Can you bear it?" This thought is too extreme.

Lin's did not relax because of Yu Xi's words.

Yu Xi said: "You go back first! I will send someone to tell you when I have news." Yu Xi will now understand why Yu Cong took a concubine in Jiangnan. Because in Pickaxe City, he didn't have the courage at all.

Mrs. Lin gave Yu Xifu a salute, and then withdrew. (to be continued)
