Chapter 588 Joining Forces with the Gao Family
In fact, Concubine Xian was more decisive than Zhao Pan'er imagined. She was still angry when she first returned. After all, the bowl of porridge was given to her by her niece, which made her feel betrayed by Gao Hui.
But when Concubine Xian thought about it carefully, she immediately realized that Gao Hui, that silly girl, seemed to be worse off than she was, so she was probably not an accomplice. You know, yesterday Gao Hui proudly said that Wang Yue was very observant and only wanted her when he was ready to get married. However, in one night, he lost his virginity before marriage, still with his aunt.
Concubine Xian could imagine that when Gao Hui woke up and saw this gap, she would definitely be sad.
It’s not like Concubine Xian didn’t think about dealing with Wang Yue, but she thought that she herself had some leverage, and Gao Hui had already lost her virginity. After Wang Yue’s accident, Gao Hui would not be able to remarry unless she found a worthless son-in-law. But she felt that Gao Hui would definitely look down on such a person.
After some time, Concubine Xian calmed down and immediately thought of how to take advantage of this matter. Wang Yue was the king of Langxie County and the pacifier of Ryukyu. That area was an area that the Central Plains ministers had not set foot in. If it was managed well, at least it could It has been passed down for centuries, even millennia. It seems better than now. Although the Gao family is also in a prominent position, the emperor is not going to die soon, and the Gao family will not be prominent for long.
Thinking of using Wang Yue's identity and his relationship with the Ryukyu pirates to allow his brother to safely go to Ryukyu to make profits as the second-in-command in the army, it always feels like being under someone else's roof.
Concubine Xian thought that Gao Hui was her brother's only daughter and had no other heirs. It seemed that it had come full circle and then went back again. It seemed that the Gao family was already tied to Wang Yue. It seemed that she really couldn't do anything to Wang Yue. , otherwise neither family would be well off.
Since there was nothing she could do about Wang Yue, Concubine Xian thought of another problem. Although she was actively preparing for pregnancy, the old plowing cow only liked young grass. It was okay to coax him over once in a while, but he couldn't be locked up by her side every day. So what could she do? Have a baby.
Thinking that Wang Yue said at that time that hot springs are the best for regulating people's condition, but did not say that they can make people live longer, then the vitality that has been lost cannot be made up.
Thinking of the emperor's original frail body, she didn't know how long she could persist in working so hard day and night. If the emperor died accidentally, what would she do then?
Thinking of this, Concubine Xian remembered that when she first entered the palace and sought medical treatment to conceive a child, an imperial doctor who was good at gynecology once said, how many days after menstruation is it easier to get pregnant? Isn’t it just these days?
However, Concubine Xian immediately thought of the emperor who was nostalgic in the bed of several new lovers. Concubine Xian's heart immediately cooled down, and she hammered the armrest of the chair with some annoyance.
Originally, such a beating would only hurt her hands a little bit, but because it was too intense yesterday, her private parts were also a little sore. Feeling the discomfort in her body, Concubine Xian secretly cursed Wang Yue for being a beast for torturing their aunt and nephew like this. Long.
Just as she was cursing, Concubine Xian had an idea. She immediately stood up and walked around the room. After walking like this for a quarter of an hour, she made a decision as soon as she gritted her silver teeth.
…
Concubine Xian made the decision and personally comforted Gao Hui and made Gao Hui accept the reality. In addition, Wang Yue was extremely gentle and considerate towards her, and the little girl became lively again within a few days.
Concubine Xian had been hanging out with Wang Yue, Gao Hui and Zhao Pan'er whenever she had time in the past few days, and Wang Yue had enjoyed it to the fullest. She just wanted to recall the experience of being together with her aunt and nephew that day, but there was no chance. The little girl really didn't want to, Wang Yue couldn't force himself.
The night before she was about to return to the palace, Concubine Xian invited the emperor, who had been at ease for a few days, to her small courtyard.
When the emperor was waiting for Concubine Xian's invitation, he thought that Concubine Xian was also coming out this time. He was a little embarrassed and hurried to go to the appointment. Looking at the fine wines and delicacies displayed in Concubine Xian's room, he thought it was because he was unbearably lonely and wanted to invite a favor. , so I didn’t think much about it.
With Concubine Xian serving him, when the emperor was slightly drunk, he was ready to stop and try another kind of food.
The Concubine Xian quietly let the Emperor's outstretched paw pass and said tactfully, "I invite the Emperor to come here. In fact, I am entrusted by others. Please listen to your Majesty."
The emperor was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Concubine Xian was not looking for sex, but for connections. But he couldn't figure out what else the Gao family wanted, so he looked at Concubine Xian with a smile and said, "Concubine, do you want to hear it? "
Concubine Xian saw that the emperor was interested, so she did not delay and said quickly, "Princess Langya came here today and planned to give this peach garden to me, so I came here to ask for your majesty's instructions."
When the emperor heard what Concubine Xian said, he thought it was because Wang Yue could not give it to him directly to avoid the criticism of the Qingliu people, so he was ready to nod in agreement. However, he was very face-conscious and felt that he could not just take Wang Yue's Zhuangzi for free, so he pretended to She asked in a pretentious manner, "Did Princess Langya say what King Langya wanted?"
Concubine Xian had long known that the emperor would be like this, so she pretended to be helpless and said, "Princess Langya and my niece are like sisters. My niece often comes here to play Cuju. She just escaped from the marriage because of the marriage to Ouyang Xu. Princess Langya was very worried and wanted to ask the emperor for permission to terminate the engagement between Ouyang Xu and Hui'er and marry Hui'er to King Langya."
The emperor immediately became alert. He shook his groggy head and asked in a deep voice, "Would Princess Langya be so virtuous that she would take the initiative to arrange people for Prince Langya in the palace?"
Concubine Xian didn't seem to notice the emperor's vigilance, and followed the emperor's words and said, "I also asked the same question. Unexpectedly, Princess Langya cried in front of the concubine. It turned out that there was a time when Princess Langya and Hui'er It rained after Cuju, and she didn't have time to go home, so she arranged for Hui'er to change clothes in her room. Who knew that the king of Langya County had rushed back to Zhuangzi after going to the Yamen that day. He didn't know Hui'er was there, so he put the wet clothes on After taking off most of their clothes, the two of them were so candid with each other."
The emperor was stunned. He didn't expect such a secret. No wonder Gao Hui, who was originally well-behaved and obedient, would suddenly run away from the marriage. It must have been that after having a frank meeting with King Langya, he felt that he was already King Langya's person, so he decided to run away from the marriage.
As if she heard what he was thinking, Concubine Xian sighed and continued, "Originally, we didn't have any further ideas, but Prince Langya also recently heard that Hui'er had escaped from marriage, and was a little worried about Hui'er's safety, so he asked her His princess confessed this matter and wanted to ask Princess Langya to help her. Although Princess Langya was unwilling to do so, she really had a good relationship with Hui'er. She was also afraid that Hui'er would have anything to do, so she came to me specifically to ask for help. .”
The emperor thought for a while and thought of the news he had recently received. Ouyang Xu suddenly took the elite of the Imperial City Division to the north for some unknown reason and disappeared in Daming Mansion. The Imperial City Division of Daming Mansion searched all over the capital of Daming Mansion. They did not find Ouyang Xu himself, but only found a corner of Ouyang Xu's official robe, so it was suspected that Ouyang Xu had been buried in the belly of the fish.
Originally, the emperor suspected that Ouyang Xu's death was most likely the work of Gao Observer, but he thought it was unlikely. After all, there were only one or two thousand of the 300 Imperial City Division troops who could not have captured it quietly. There had not been a large number of people in those days. Traces of the mobilization of troops and horses.
Later, the emperor suspected Wang Yue, Gu Qianfan, and even Xiao Qinyan, but there was no real evidence, so Ouyang Xu's death became an unsolved case.
Now that King Langya is asking to marry Gao Hui, is he preparing to join forces with the Gao family? The emperor frowned when he thought of the irreconcilable relationship between Wang Yue and Gu Qianfan.
Although Concubine Xian didn't know what the emperor was thinking, she probably guessed that she was afraid of the two families uniting. She suddenly smiled and said, "Princess Langya said that they would leave Tokyo as soon as the reward from the Ministry of Etiquette to the King of Ryukyu arrives, and probably come back in this life. The probability is very low, so I reluctantly gave such a nice yard to my concubine. The emperor didn’t know her distressed expression at that time, and I found it funny when I saw it.”
The emperor's brows widened after hearing what Concubine Xian said. He also thought of Wang Yue's decisive look at that time. Now that Concubine Xian said it, it seemed that he had fallen in love with a courtier, but he felt that he was doing this. Protect Wang Yue, and Wang Yue will definitely understand his painstaking efforts in the future.
Thinking of this, the emperor stopped being suspicious and said with a smile, "Yes, who would give up such a good courtyard? Why don't you live in the city instead of living in the city if you don't see that King Langya can live outside the city? Every time he goes to court, he is willing to give up." Dare to ride a horse from outside the city."
Concubine Xian had also heard about this matter, or what Gao Hui said, but when she thought of this, she thought of her recent obsession, and she felt a little soft. Looking at the emperor who was excited about getting the house, she smiled and said, "What your Majesty said is that for such a big bargain, Your Majesty must grant it to me."
The emperor saw Concubine Xian acting coquettishly towards her, and he laughed heartily when he thought of how powerful he was in recent days. He sighed at Taolin's belongings and said happily, "It's rare for Concubine to beg me once, how can I?" There is a reason for not agreeing, we will write the edict immediately when we get back tomorrow, but where is that girl Hui'er hiding now?"
Concubine Xian had known for a long time that the emperor would agree, but she didn't expect that the emperor would ask Gao Hui's whereabouts. This was completely within Wang Yue's expectation. Only then did she understand Wang Yue's ability. It was just that Wang Yue had not expected that Zhao Pan'er would How about three people sharing a bed?
But this was not the time to think about such things. Concubine Xian glanced at the emperor and said aggrievedly, "The guards of Wang Yue's family sent news that the girl Hui'er wandered around Wang's house in Langya County when she ran away. The guards of Wang Yue's family were worried. Hui'er didn't feel safe alone, so she followed quietly, and she must have arrived at Qiantang by now."
When the emperor heard Concubine Xian say that Gao Hui went to Qiantang, he nodded. He didn't believe that Gao Hui went there alone. It must have been Wang Yue's revenge on Ouyang Xu, so he took advantage of the situation and sent Gao Hui away.
As long as Gao Hui did not go to Daming Mansion, it would have nothing to do with Ouyang Xu's death. The emperor was relieved. She looked at the aggrieved Concubine Xian. The emperor knew that Concubine Xian had noticed his suspicion, so he comforted her softly, "I grant Hui'er the status of a princess. If a princess marries a prince, there is no way Wang Yue's princess can bully Hui'er."
Concubine Xian immediately sat up straight, pretending to be surprised, picked up the wine glass and said excitedly, "Thank you for the gift, Your Majesty. I will drink this glass with Your Majesty to celebrate."
Seeing the happy look on Concubine Xian's face, the emperor also picked up the wine glass in front of him and said with a smile, "One glass is not enough. I still remember the first time you were drunk. It was so unforgettable. Let's get drunk today!" "
Concubine Xian was originally thinking about how to get the emperor drunk, but she didn't expect the emperor to come to her door. She was not polite, so she smiled coquettishly and said, "Your Majesty, you are so evil!"
The emperor had drunk a lot, but he was unable to see Concubine Xian's true drunken appearance that night. Concubine Xian had arranged for her to be drunk on the bed early in the morning.
In the middle of the night, in the hazy state, the emperor felt that the heat was unbearable. He reached out and touched the concubine beside him, and then he started working decisively. After a lot of hard work, he felt very tired, so he turned over and fell into a deep sleep.
Not long after the emperor fell asleep, Concubine Xian walked out of the outer room and said to the woman on the bed, "Luzhu, your brother has been rescued from prison by Gao Kuan. You don't have to worry."
Luzhu hurriedly stood up and knelt on the ground, and said excitedly, "Thank you so much for your love! Your Majesty, you are tired from serving your majesty. Please let me take care of you and take a bath."
The next day the emperor woke up and looked at Concubine Xian who was sleeping beside him and the bruises on Concubine Xian's body. He felt a little distressed and blamed himself for not doing anything serious after being drunk. However, it was only for that moment that the emperor immediately When he reacted, he didn't expect that his combat power would soar after he was drunk, and there were countless beauties in the harem. The emperor thought he could try more.
The emperor was ready to make a move when he saw Concubine Xian's lazy appearance, but it was time to return to the palace and he had no time to continue to experience it, so he hurriedly drove back to the palace.
This time the emperor left very simply. After all, this peach garden already belonged to Concubine Xian, so didn't it mean it belonged to him? Since it can grow in the future, why bother?
Not long after the emperor returned to the palace, a decree came to Taoyuan. Gao Hui naturally became the wife of King Langya, and her status was only lower than that of the princess.
Not long after the imperial edict was issued, the Ministry of Rites also prepared things. Wang Yue did not hesitate at all. He took his family and the reward to the King of Ryukyu and headed south. After stopping briefly at Qiantang along the way, he took the sea via Wenzhou. The ship arrived at Ryukyu.
However, the Ryukyu navy troops brought by Wang Cai did not evacuate and were incorporated into the Wangwang team Youjian Inn sequence. As the task execution team of Youjian Inn, their main purpose was to protect Concubine Xian and the child in her belly.
The King of Ryukyu breathed a sigh of relief after Wang Yue arrived in Ryukyu and read out the imperial edict. He was really afraid that if the edict was delayed, he would not be able to leave.
You must know that although he is the king of Ryukyu, the power is in the hands of a few generals. If it were not for the pirates that have been rampant in recent years, he might have been killed long ago. Even if the pirates are powerful, there are still people who use his name. The king of Ryukyu was worried because he was afraid that he would be killed by pirates to vent his anger.
Now that he was finally relieved, the King of Ryukyu couldn't wait to board the ship back to the capital with a few beloved concubines and some close family members the day after Wang Yue read out the imperial edict. He waited until he arrived in the capital. Then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that the King of Ryukyu was in such a hurry to come to Beijing, the emperor actually brought all the clan members with him, which was more thorough than what the Qian family had done back then. He was also very pleased, and made the King of Ryukyu the king of Penglai County, and also gave him a house in Kyoto, and There is countless gold, which makes the Ryukyu king grateful.
Thinking of seeing the prosperity of Tokyo when he came to Beijing, the King of Ryukyu sighed. This is where people live. He lingers in every corner of Tokyo every day. Like Grandma Liu when she entered the Grand View Garden, she has long forgotten about the birds. Shit Ryukyu Island.
