Chapter 1464 Chapter 769

Bai Muxiao paced slowly in the inner room, feeling restless in her heart.

It has been more than two months since Han Lingfu went to Xiye, and there is no news yet, and I don't know if the peace talks with Xiye have been done... At first, Han Lingfu went to Xijiang to make peace with Xiye for meritorious service, and now this credit is still owed. There is no shadow, but the hall is about to be turned upside down!

Counting the days, the Xijiang side should also get the news from the Royal Capital side, but even so, I am afraid that the far water can't save the near fire now!

How could things turn out like this!

She had to think hard about the next step.

At this moment, a sound of picking the curtain sounded, Bihen walked in quickly, and bowed his knees and said: "The side concubine, the Cui family just sent someone over, saying that they want to pick up the prince to live in the mansion for a few days, General Cui has not seen him for a month. Shizi, I miss my grandson very much..."

The prince Han Weijun was recorded in the name of the late princess Cui Yanyan. This was not Bai Muxiao's original intention... Even when she heard the news, Bai Muxiao strongly opposed it, but the emperor immediately dismissed it. The imperial decree, even if she objected, it was useless. After all, she was just a concubine of the county king...

Every time she thought about this, Bai Muxiao felt angry and unwilling in her heart.

Apart from Han Lingfu, the culprit, the person Bai Muxiao hated most was Cui Yanyan.

If Cui Yanyan had not become Han Lingfu's concubine, she would not have been reduced to a humble side room bowing her head and bowing her head to her concubine.

If it wasn't for Cui Yanyan who poisoned herself, that child would not have been born into this world in such a pitiful manner, and would not have been abandoned by his father...

All this was done by Cui Yanyan!

After all, it was Han Lingfu who was useless and didn't get things done, so that her son actually wanted to recognize that vicious woman as his mother!

In the future, even if Brother Jun has the opportunity to take that position, Cui Yanyan will "mother is more expensive than the child", and she will always be one point lower than Cui Yanyan!

Why does Cui Yanyan, even if she is dead, haunt herself like a maggot on her tarsus and humiliate herself!

Thinking about it, Bai Muxiao's fists were tightly squeezed together, and she looked gloomily at Bihen who came to report.

Since the emperor's imperial decree was issued, the Cui family used chicken feathers as arrows, often came to visit Han Weijun, and deliberately treated Bai Muxiao as a servant to take care of the prince. Bai Muxiao naturally didn't want to deal with the Cui family, so after Han Lingfu left the capital, she dismissed the stewards sent by the Cui family several times and did not let them see Han Weijun.

But this time, the Cui family came to pick up people directly in the name of the eldest son's grandfather's family. It was obviously threatening. I was afraid that if they dared to refuse, the Cui family would dare to go to the emperor at once... At this moment, Han Lingfu was not in the capital. Bai Muxiao is not afraid of anything else, but she is afraid that she will give the second concubine Chen an excuse to adopt Han Weijun...

Seeing that Bai Muxiao remained silent for a long time, Bihen asked cautiously, "Concubine Side, do you want a servant..."

Bai Muxiao raised her hand to interrupt Bihen, gritted her teeth and said, "Let the prince go with them." She didn't believe that the Cui family was so daring and dared to attack the son of the prince and the royal blood!

"The prince is still young, he can't leave me at night, let the prince come back before it gets dark..." Bai Muxiao added lightly.

This little child is crying for the righteousness of his mother, so the Cui family must keep the child in custody for a few days and not let him come back!

Bihen responded and went down.

People from the Cui family came in a mighty way, and they brought their children back to the Cui house in a mighty way. As soon as the carriage entered the mansion, someone immediately went to report to Cui Wei and Madam Cui that the Prince of Gong County was here.

After the servant who came to report withdrew, a calm male voice suddenly sounded in the hall: "General Cui, you know what to do!"

The person who spoke was a thin middle-aged man wearing a sapphire moiré robe, with flat features and a two-inch long beard on his chin. His temperament was quite elegant.

Cui Wei raised his eyes to look at the other party, his lips pursed into a straight line, and he was still a little hesitant: now the little prince is recorded in the name of his daughter Cui Yanyan, once Prince Gong ascends to the big treasure in the future, then his family will be the king. Moreover, his fourth daughter is now the concubine of Prince Gong, and will give birth to a son and a half daughter in the future, so the relationship between the Cui family and the royal family will be unbreakable...

As if seeing Cui Wei's thoughts, the middle-aged man let out a sneer, and his originally peaceful eyes instantly sharpened a lot. He said indifferently: "General Cui, Duke Gong is not a fool, does he really know nothing?"

The middle-aged man said something meaningful, Cui Wei's pupils shrank, as if he wanted to understand something, he raised his eyes and looked out of the hall.

Not far from the hall, a woman with a big shoulder and a thick waist was walking towards this side with an eight or nine month old baby in a red jacket. A few strands of thin brown hair on the ears and temples are exposed from the carp hat, which glows almost golden in the sun...

Cui Wei stared at the baby's hair, squinting slightly, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, and finally nodded, clasped his fists and said, "Brother Yu, please advise!"

The middle-aged man smiled slightly and said, "General Cui, what you have to do is very simple, just..."

So, half an hour later, two carriages left the Cui Mansion one after another. One of the black lacquered flat-topped carriages galloped towards the palace. Cui Wei brought Han Weijun, the prince of Gong County, into the palace to greet the emperor.

At this moment, in addition to the emperor in the emperor's bedroom, the empress was also serving sickness beside the couch.

Cui Wei came suddenly, and the emperor was a little surprised. If this were normal, the emperor would have dismissed Cui Wei casually long ago, but recently the emperor has been on a sick bed for a long time. At this time, he is more fragile both physically and mentally than usual, and he values ​​family affection more than usual.

Thinking that he hadn't seen his grandson Han Weijun for a long time, the emperor summoned Cui Wei and the others.

"At the end of the day, I will bring my son to see the emperor and the empress!"

Cui Wei respectfully knelt down and saluted the empress, while Han Weijun was under a year old and could not speak a word. Naturally, he saluted casually with the help of the palace servants.

The emperor ordered the two to get up, but Cui Wei did not get up immediately, and said respectfully: "The last will come without an announcement and ask the emperor to forgive me, the last will think that Prince Gong is not in the capital at the moment, so he can't do his filial piety in front of the emperor. At the end of the day, he specially brought the prince to serve the Duke of Gong to serve his filial piety."

Cui Wei's remarks were high-sounding. Of course, the emperor knew that Cui Wei's words were nothing more than a few scenes, but when he saw his grandson come to visit him in the palace, the emperor was still in a good mood, and he was forgiven his innocence.

For a time, the baby's cute milky voice instantly gave the originally lifeless palace a little bit of life, and even the emperor let out a long-lost laugh, and rewarded his grandson with a gold collar...

The little maid who was serving on the side saw the emperor's smiling face, and said jokingly: "Your Majesty, the Empress, the little emperor's grandson is really good-looking, with fair skin, thick hair, and facial features that look like dolls in New Year's paintings. "

"Yeah." The other little servant also smiled and said, "The servant looks at the little emperor's grandson and looks a bit like the concubine Zhang..."

Concubine Zhang? ! The emperor was stunned, looked at the little baby who was standing on the ground with the help of the palace servants, looked at it carefully, stroked his beard and said, "It looks a bit like a concubine..."

Han Lingfu's biological mother, Zhang Concubine, also has some outsider blood. Her hair color is a little lighter than the average Taiyu people, and it is more brown. The same is true for this child, and the child's outline and facial features are deep, especially his nose bridge and eye sockets. ...

Looking closely, this child doesn't seem to look like Taiyu, and Concubine Zhang's facial features are bright and distinct, but not as profound as this child...

"It doesn't seem like it..." The emperor murmured again, these words were so light that only he could hear them.

"Your Majesty, Prince Gong is young and strong, and he will soon bring 'good news' to the Emperor. The little grandson that will be born in the future will definitely look like the Emperor." One of the little servants flattered the Emperor.

The emperor couldn't help laughing. He didn't care if his grandson didn't look like him. Anyway, he wasn't the only grandson Han Weijun, but this child was the only son of Xiaosan.

Speaking of which, the third child is really difficult!

It stands to reason that there are quite a few women in Xiaosan's house, why after so many years, only Bai Muxiao has given birth to two children, and the others are either stillborn or silent...

and many more!

The emperor seemed to think of something, his expression condensed.

Could it be that there is something wrong with the mistress that caused the offspring to fail, right?

It's a disease that needs to be cured.

The emperor thought thoughtfully, his mood subsided, and he sent Cui Wei and Han Weijun away in a few words.

As soon as Cui Wei left, the emperor groaned and instructed: "Come here, call Imperial Physician Zhang for me."

During this period of time, the emperor was on the bed, and the imperial hospital now arranges the imperial doctor to be on standby in the emperor's bedroom for twelve hours a day, so the imperial doctor Zhang came quickly after a while.

"Is there a case of Prince Gong's pulse in the Imperial Hospital?" The emperor asked straight to the point.

Zhang Taiyi was still a little nervous. Seeing that the emperor looked in good spirits and asked about Prince Gong's pulse, he was secretly relieved and replied respectfully and truthfully: "Go back to the emperor, Prince Gong has not been in the past two years. Please ask the imperial physician to examine the Ping An Mai."

The emperor raised his eyebrows, looking surprised. The heirs of the royal family are weak. Although most of the princes are young, according to the rules, the Taiyuan Hospital will also ask the princes for a pulse of peace every ten days. This has been the case for decades. Why is the third...

The emperor wanted to say something else, but the queen on the side suddenly made a noise and dismissed Imperial Physician Zhang.

When only the Empress and Empress were left in the palace, the Empress looked at the Emperor hesitantly, and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know if I should say something, it's about Brother Jun..."

The emperor frowned slightly, and suddenly remembered that the empress never seemed to have spoken to the child again, except for the time when Han Weijun greeted him. Is there anything wrong with the child?

"Is there anything else the Queen and I can't say?" The Emperor said hurriedly.

The Empress seemed to be in a dilemma, sighed faintly, and finally said: "Your Majesty, in fact, during this period of time, there have been some indecent rumors in the capital. The concubine originally thought it was just rumors, but now I'm worried that it's groundless..." It may not be without reason.

The Empress paused for a moment, and then continued with difficulty: "Those rumors... said that Duke Gong did not know who was involved in the scandal of being a 'acquaintance'..." As she spoke, the Empress lowered her head, as if she did not dare to do so. Look at the look of the emperor.

Success! Hearing this, the emperor's pupils shrank sharply, his face sinking like water.

The so-called "acquaintance of Cheng Ren" is a fragrant anecdote in "Zhou Dong Ye Yu". It is said that an official surnamed Cheng and an official surnamed Ren are close friends, but the official surnamed Ren has not yet reached the age of forty. Incense, one day, the official surnamed Cheng sent a concubine to the official surnamed Ren as a gift for his 40th birthday. Eight months later, the concubine gave birth to a son prematurely.

Everyone in the world said that the child born by that concubine was actually surnamed Cheng, not Ren.

The meaning behind the Queen's words is clear.

The emperor's face became more and more ugly, and the child's face that was not as beautiful as Taiyu's face could not help but emerge in his mind.

The few rays of sunlight projected from the window illuminated the emperor's face in half-light and half-darkness. At this time, it seemed that even the inside of the palace became a little dark...

The sun outside had begun to gradually slant to the west. Although it was still a while before the palace gate was locked, Cui Wei couldn't wait to take Han Weijun out of the palace gate. After that, he did not take the child to Cui's house, and directly ordered the servants to take the child. It was sent back to Prince Gong's Mansion.

Not long after, Bihen and Nanny happily hugged Han Weijun back to Xinghui Courtyard, "Concubine Side, the little prince is back!"

When the little baby saw her mother reaching out, she wanted to go to her, and cried "Aah".

Bai Muxiao was flipping through a book of "Dayu Kyushu Chronicles" in the small study, and responded with a light expression.

She glanced at Han Weijun, then looked away, not caring where the child went today. For her, as long as he comes back safely, she doesn't even know what's going on behind the scenes in the Cui family...

Han Weijun hadn't eaten anything for nearly half a day since he left the county palace. He was already hungry. Seeing his mother ignored him, he burst into tears. , looks miserable.

"Wow wow wow..."

The little baby cried louder and louder, the hysterical cries seemed to blow the roof off, and the nurse hurriedly patted him on the back to persuade him.

Seeing the child crying non-stop, Bai Muxiao felt irritated in her heart, and she instructed the wet nurse a little impatiently, "Why don't you take the prince down and feed him some food!"

"Yes, Concubine Side." The wet nurse naturally carried the little prince down as promised.

The cry of the child gradually faded away, the surroundings soon became quiet, and Bai Muxiao was alone in the small study again.

Bai Muxiao flipped through the "Dayu Kyushu Chronicle" for a while, but her heart couldn't calm down. The feeling of restlessness still hovered in her heart, and it didn't go away.

There has been no news from Xijiang, and the unresolved feeling made her more and more uneasy.

Why!

Bai Muxiao put down the book in her hand and looked up at the cloudless blue sky outside the window, with resentment and depression in her eyes.

Obviously she has strategy, vision, and courage, but because she is a daughter, she is trapped in the inner house and can't do anything, so she can only passively wait in the capital...

Xijiang is thousands of miles away, even if she has the heart, she is powerless...

At this moment in the western border, Han Lingfu finally learned the news from the capital, including the news that Shunjun King poisoned the emperor to stroke and framed the fifth prince, and that the fifth prince, with the help of Yong Yang, exposed his conspiracy and succeeded in supervising the country.

One after another, one by one, he was shocked.

He thought he had a good job of negotiating peace, but he didn't expect that he had only left Wangdu for more than two months, but instead, Han Lingfan took the lead for nothing.

If he was still in the capital, he would definitely not allow the fifth emperor to gain power easily. He could even use the excuse that the fifth emperor was unintentional, but he still helped the emperor to abuse his father and his father, and let the fifth emperor and the second emperor live forever. No turning point!

It's a pity that such a great opportunity is gone forever!

The more Han Lingfu thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He really had bad luck!

It happened that he came to Xijiang by himself...

Thinking of what happened after he came to Western Xinjiang, Han Lingfu's brows knitted together.

Now the situation in Western Xinjiang is completely out of his control, and he can't do anything here. And now that the father emperor is critically ill, and the younger brother of the five emperors, who is in charge of the battle, is in charge of the country, then what is there to negotiate for peace? !

Even if Han Huaijun did not comply with the decree and continued to fight against the Xiye army, the younger brother of the Fifth Emperor would definitely not blame him...

The more Han Lingfu thought about it, the worse it became. He couldn't stay in the Western Border any longer, and he had to return to the capital to preside over the overall situation. Once the Fifth Emperor's younger brother stabilizes the court situation and appeases people's hearts, then everything is really irreversible!

Han Lingfu said decisively: "This king wants to return to the capital immediately!"

His voice was loud, but when he brought a few personal soldiers to the gate of the defense mansion, he was immediately stopped by the Xuanjia army guarding the door, and only gave one sentence:

"In and out!"

Han Lingfu has been under house arrest in this garrison for more than half a month, and every time he wants to leave the house, he gets these dry words. This king! If he doesn't come, this king will leave here today even if he splatters blood on the spot!" He didn't believe that Han Huaijun dared to kill his dignified son!

The soldier who sent the message left quickly, and it was not until more than half an hour later that Han Huaijun came on his horse.

"Ta Tata..."

Under the golden sun, among the flying yellow dust, a young man in armor sat astride a black horse, looking valiant and high-spirited, but Han Lingfu was feeling aggrieved, and the anger that had calmed down a little It's brewing again in my heart...

He suppressed his anger and watched Han Huaijun get off his horse and strode towards him.

Han Lingfu wanted to walk out of the gate of the garrison, but when he heard a metal crash, two long knives crossed in front of him immediately.

The two young men stood facing each other across a high threshold.

"What advice do you have for the prince?" Han Huaijun clasped his fists and said indifferently, as if the two were just strangers, not cousins ​​who grew up together.

Han Lingfu endured his anger and said, "My father is seriously ill and his life is dying. As the son of my father, I must hurry back to the capital to serve my father!"

After a pause, he seemed to be afraid that Han Huai-Jun would not agree, and said righteously: "Han Huai-Jun, don't forget, there is no father and emperor, but you can have today!"

Han Huaijun is just a mere concubine of King Qi, and even his father, King Qi, doesn't take him seriously. If it wasn't for his father, Han Huaijun would be just an idle clan in the future, allowing Princess Qi to practice.

It was the royal father who valued him, gave him the opportunity to expedition to the north and the west, and gave him a future!

If Han Huai-jun doesn't let him go today, he will be disloyal, righteous and unfilial! He has no face to stand in the army!

A sharp light flashed in Han Lingfu's eyes, and he looked at Han Huaijun in an instant.

Han Huaijun nodded and said, "Okay, let's go."

Han Huaijun's simple four words made Han Lingfu dumbfounded, almost suspecting that he heard it wrong.

He originally thought that Han Huaijun would definitely find excuses to try to stop him, and he prepared a lot of words, intending to do both hard and soft, but he did not expect the other party to agree so readily.

Han Lingfu choked for a while, and his handsome face was full of astonishment, and he was suspicious.

Han Lingfu glanced at Han Huaijun again, and stopped thinking about it. While turning around, he said to the entourage and personal soldiers beside him, "Quick! Hurry up and prepare your luggage!"

Han Lingfu strode away, looking at his appearance, he really wanted to fly away from here, while Han Huaijun stayed in place and watched his back for a while, his eyes overflowing with deep disappointment.

This disappointment seems to be aimed at Han Lingfu, but it doesn't seem to be...

Han Huaijun's gaze slowly moved upwards, looking towards the sky, which was the direction of the royal capital...

After a while, he withdrew his gaze, then turned on his horse, rode his horse away, and went straight to the West City Gate.

At this time, the setting sun had already fallen most of the time, casting a golden halo on the city wall.

From a distance, Han Huaijun saw Yao Lianghang standing on the high city wall, and several soldiers were patrolling the city defense. The corners of Han Huaijun's originally straight mouth rose slightly, and his expression relaxed a lot.

Yao Lianghang heard the sound of the hooves and also came over, and then quickly walked down the stone steps.
