Three Hundred and Fiftieth IX

"Grand Xiangruo is dead!" Chunjia looked gloomy, looking around at the ministers, "The majestic feudal lord personally wrote a letter of greeting to me a few days ago, but now it's gone, everyone in Fuyang County, What are they all for?!"

All the ministers saw that the emperor was really angry, so they didn't dare to make a sound.

It was Ouyang Yanran who stepped forward to persuade her, and then said: "Although King Fuyang is respectful, I heard that he is very feminine in private... Maybe it has something to do with it?"

This is of course a cover for the Tianjia mother and child.

In fact, although Gongxiang Ruoheng is lustful, he is young after all, even if he sings and sings every night, as a child of the clan, he will not say that he will die suddenly at this moment.

The point is that the two empress dowagers also overestimated his background, and actually made people kneel outside the mansion for a day and a night!

This incident happened like this, the two empress dowagers were in a dispute, and neither of them would give in.

Even if the emperor favored Queen Mother Yuan in his heart, he was not alienated to the point of not caring about his biological mother, Qu Shi.

The envoy sent to Fuyang County was also aware of this point.

The problem is that Empress Dowager Qu put on a posture that she would die if she dared to disobey her. Even if the messenger knew that the emperor supported Empress Dowager Yuan more, he would not dare to say that he would force the birth mother of the son of heaven to death? So I can only coax on both sides, and no one dares to offend.

After such a stalemate, the envoy was exhausted and couldn't help using his brains, just to persuade Gong Xiang Ruoheng to come forward to smooth things over.

To be honest, Gongxiang Ruoheng is no stranger to the two empress dowagers.

After all, the relationship between the two empress dowagers and the emperor meant that he, a vassal who relied on the emperor's hand-picked superiors, would not dare to offend, and even had to coax the empress dowager well.

So since the two empress dowagers returned to Fuyang County, even if Gongxiang Ruohang didn't live in the same mansion with them, he never dared to slack off in the morning and evening, and often served the two empress dowagers personally. But because of this, he became one of the tools used by the two empress dowagers to fight.

For example, when serving tea, give it to Queen Mother Yuan first, and Queen Mother Qu will have something to say immediately; give it to Queen Mother Qu first, and Queen Mother Yuan will turn her face on the spot...

In short, it is extremely difficult.

Of course, Gongxiang Ruoheng didn't want to take this kind of hot potato sandwiched between the two empress dowagers again.

Helpless, the envoy also had a headache. In order to solve the matter as soon as possible, he pretended to be a tiger and threatened Gongxiang Ruoheng. If he refused to help, he would definitely remind the emperor in front of the emperor after he returned to the imperial capital!

Because of Chunjia's operations in the past two years, the government and the public, as well as the clan members, were all very jealous. After hearing the words, Gongxiang Ruoheng, although he was reluctant, had to rack his brains to make suggestions for the envoy. However, in terms of intrigue, the two empress dowagers are not fuel-efficient lamps. How could Gongxiang Ruoheng, a young vassal king raised under the protection of his mother and concubine, be his opponent? Especially in the way of Chunjia, he naturally lowered the two empress dowagers, so he couldn't hold back the empress dowagers even more, but was scolded by the empress dowagers in turn.

In the end, he decided to come up with a bitter plan, which was to kneel directly outside the mansion where the two empress dowagers lived and beg them to shake hands and make peace.

Thinking about it, even if the two empress dowagers definitely don't have much affection for him in their hearts, for the sake of face and for the sake of his hard work these days, they should ease it up a bit?

Who knew that he had underestimated the degree of grievances between the two empress dowagers. Empress Dowager Yuan and Empress Dowager Qu might not have deliberately made things difficult for him, but they definitely didn't care about him, and they didn't want to be the first to give in. Both the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager Qu are counting on the other party to make a statement first, and they act as if they don't know what to do... If Gongxiang bowed his bow and didn't turn back, and knelt down in front of everyone, then of course he couldn't go back on his word halfway, this feudal lord is also young , and was too afraid of Chunjia, and dared not fool him, so he knelt down for a day and a night, and finally passed out before being taken back by his servants.

Then she fell ill when she returned home. Empress Dowager Yuan Qu did not take it seriously when she heard the news, thinking it was just ordinary heatstroke or fatigue.

Who knew that that night, the feudal lord's condition took a turn for the worse, and he was declared dead without even seeing the morning light of the next day?

Now the matter is getting serious. Originally, the death of the Yuanzhi vassal king was to be reported to the imperial court. What's more, the son of the Fuyang king was born as the emperor, which attracted special attention. The current heir king was to reconcile the two queen mother ill, this...

The officials of Fuyang County are afraid that they will hang themselves collectively at this moment!

They were very anxious, and Chunjia was also under great pressure.

If the King of Fuyang was just an ordinary vassal, the dead could not be brought back to life, and after a generous burial, his heirs would be treated with courtesy, and the emperor would still be able to suppress a mere remote branch vassal.

The point is, Gongxiang Ruoheng is the biological son of King Zhou!

Although his biological mother, Princess Lin, was only a continuation, she was deeply loved by the King of Zhou.

Concubine Lin is the only one of her own flesh and blood!

In order to give the only child a good future, he tried every means to persuade King Zhou to stand in Chunjia, so as to win the chance for his son to inherit the lineage of King Fuyang!

Originally aimed at the title of feudal prince, it is basically impossible for Princess Lin to betray the emperor.

If she doesn't betray Chunjia, she will naturally take the initiative to help guard Zhou Wang and others!

It turned out to be fine now, the only child of the family died! ! !

The cause of death is also closely related to the two empress dowagers!

Even if it wasn't what Chunjia meant, nor was it done by the emperor, but for a mother who lost her only blood, can she listen to it?

Even if Chunjia didn't attach as much importance to his heirs as the outside world thought, he didn't think Princess Lin would let her go.

After marrying the king of Zhou, so far, it can be said that she has done two things: the first is to win over the king of Zhou; the second is to love her only biological flesh and blood.

Therefore, if Gongxiang is gone, Concubine Lin will definitely anger the two empress dowagers, and then blame the emperor!

It's not that Chunjia is afraid of her, the point is, this is an ally!

Is it wrong to become an enemy so suddenly?

"Your Majesty, there may not be room for mediation in this matter." The emperor was furious in the temple, because the two empress dowagers were in love with each other, and they were elders, so it was difficult to say anything in full view. He had no choice but to scold the envoy sent to Fuyang County to the point of swearing, dismissed him on the spot, and ordered the Secretary of the Imperial City to escort him back to Beijing and put him in prison.

In short, this messenger punching bag is done.

But for Zhou Wang and his wife, the emperor didn't express his opinion on the spot. He only asked the ministers if they had no other important matters to report, so he left in a huff!

In the end, it was Ouyang Yanran and other courtiers who chased after him to the Imperial Study Room to comfort him, "Although Gong Xiangruo is gone, there are still children under his knees. Those children are also from the blood of King Zhou. How can the King Zhou and his wife turn a deaf ear to them? It hurts, but the grandchildren still exist, if His Majesty grants him a favor, surely they will also be able to appreciate the mighty kindness of the Emperor?"

At this time, I can only make up for it from my grandchildren, Chunjia sighed, and said: "During the decree, the prince of Fuyang, Xiangruo, was honest and filial, and he served the two empress dowagers with care and thoughtfulness. Unfortunately, he passed away today, and my heart aches! Tejia Enqi's eldest son, Jin Feng... just... let him be King Guang!"

Someone next to him quickly wrote down the words of Jinkouyu, turned his head and polished them into a document, and asked the emperor to read it correctly, and then officially copied it into an order and sent it to Fuyang County.

"The king of Zhou must have a saying. Although the adoption is supposed to have nothing to do with them, but the law is nothing more than human feelings, so they are my elders..." The emperor thought for a while, and then ordered, "On this side, Yue Let the court go on your behalf."

Deng Chengzhai accepted the order in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, it's not an option for the two empress dowagers to go on like this." At this time, Yi Guo said publicly, and said slowly, "Although the death of King Fuyang this time was not the intention of the two empress dowagers, but...after all, it has something to do with it. Now that the war in the north is not over, it is really inappropriate for the two empress dowagers to be so angry."

He has never been as eloquent as Ouyang Yanran and Deng Chengzhai, and can figure out what he wants. Although the wording is as tactful as possible, the meaning is still very clear: the two empress dowagers really don't understand the generalities of many serious things in the court!

Ouyang Yanran and Deng Chengzhai were watching each other carefully, pretending not to hear, and not daring to interrupt easily.

Yin Qu didn't care, he followed the route of a direct minister, saying what he thought to show his openness.

Hearing this, he frowned and said, "Could it be that Your Majesty wants to procrastinate? It's just that the status and seniority of the two empress dowagers are left there. If the Duke has any wonderful recipes, why don't you tell me about it?"

Duke Yi really had some ideas, and said: "The two empress dowagers are at loggerheads, it's hard to convince. According to Yichen, it's better to draw lots!"

"...The two empress dowagers agree?" The eyes of the others lit up when they heard the words, and when they felt in a dilemma, it might be a good idea to leave the choice to luck.

The problem is, the one that was not drawn is fine, and the one that is drawn is willing to give in?

These two don't intend to reason now, do they?

"If the two Empress Dowagers agree, why bother to draw lots?" Duke Yi asked back, "Now that it is like this, it is better to ask Your Majesty to draw lots, and then... choose a Empress Dowager and move to the palace to serve her."

Several colleagues immediately fell silent again, including Yin Qu.

In my heart, I feel that Yi Guogong... This is true and sincere!

The dignified queen mother, he dares to be tough?

This is being said politely, isn't it just that one will be selected by lottery and sent away forcibly, so as to separate the two queen mothers, so as to prevent them from continuing to make trouble?

If it was what he said a few days ago, even if the emperor agreed in his heart, he still had to pretend on the surface.

But now...

The emperor was most dissatisfied with the two empress dowagers when he heard the words, and said without thinking too much: "I remember that Minghui's son-in-law has not received any serious errands since he came back from the Northland. If that is the case, I will leave this matter to him." Let it go."

After all, Chunjia still has the burden of Mingjun, paused, and then said, "I will go to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager later, maybe the Empress Dowager has some orders."

The implication is that even if you come hard, you will say it to the outside world when the time comes, it is the meaning of the empress dowager!

The empress dowager, as the emperor's grandmother and the most noble hostess in the name of the main sect, crushed the two empress dowagers in terms of status and seniority, and acted under her banner. What.
