Jiangshan Ji

Chapter 16

One day, we were chatting as usual, Wang Shu came over respectfully, and presented a letter to Yu Wenjian. After Yu Wenjian read it, his face changed drastically, he slapped the table hard, and said angrily: "You bastard, you really want to piss me off." !"

This kind of reaction immediately let me know that the short happy days are over.

The only son who can make Yu Wenjian furious is Prince Yu Wenxuan.

Originally, Yu Wenxuan loved the charming Yun Zhaoxun very much. After Yun Zhaoxun gave birth to three sons, the treatment she received in the East Palace was comparable to that of the Crown Princess Yuan.

The crown princess is not allowed to be favored, and has no children under her knees. Seeing that a small concubine's house is doting on her, when she is indignant, she becomes angry and has no time to manage the affairs of the East Palace. Yu Wenxuan immediately ordered Yun Zhaoxun to preside over the East Palace.

The Crown Princess had no symptoms of illness before, but this time, everyone in the East Palace thought it was just a dispute of emotions, and it would be a good thing within a few days.Unexpectedly, just two days after Yun Zhaoxun took charge of the East Palace, the Crown Princess died suddenly and died.

The princess's father, Yuan Xiaoju, suspected that Yun Zhaoxun had killed his daughter. He cried and cursed in the East Palace, accusing Yu Wenxuan and Yun Zhaoxun of having sex and killing the princess. Unexpectedly, Yu Wenxuan said casually: "Wait for me Ascend to the throne, I will kill you old man!"

Yuan Xiaoju has followed Yu Wenjian since he was a minister in Huashan Mountain, not only won the respect of Yu Wenjian, but also has a high reputation in the court, and is one of the ministers of Min Guo.The civil servants and military generals who had been friends with him saw that Yuan Xiaoju was so insulted by Yu Wenxuan after seeing Yuan Xiaoju's daughter's death, so they jointly signed a letter asking Yu Wenjian to depose the prince.

The cause and effect of this incident was stated in detail in the letter. Empress Chen took it and read it, then turned to face Yu Wenjian, "Xuan'er is too inconsiderate. For the sake of a small concubine, she blatantly insulted the imperial court official. If there is no heavy punishment, it will surely arouse the public outrage of civil and military officials."

Empress Chen's words were very ingenious, and she did not specify the specific measures for heavy punishment, but the implication was that she was extremely dissatisfied with Yu Wenxuan and advised Yu Wenjian not to be tolerated.

Deposing the crown prince is the heaviest punishment, right?

"Xuan'er is good at everything, but he is a person who is greedy for beauty. I have already said that, sooner or later, he will suffer disaster because of women!"

It seems that Yu Wenjian was really very angry, even though Yu Wenchang and I were still on the sidelines, he reprimanded Yu Wenxuan very unhappy in front of us.

"Since the Crown Princess entered the East Palace, she has been diligent and diligent in handling the family affairs of the East Palace. Now she died for no apparent reason. If the matter cannot be investigated, the people of the East Palace will feel uneasy, and it will be difficult for the Palace to gain authority in the Harem." Empress Chen said.

Yu Wenchang took a step forward and said: "Father, Queen Mother, there is no need to act too hastily. The fact that the Crown Princess died at the hands of Yun Zhaoxun is only a one-sided statement by Yuan Xiaoju. The truth is still unknown. Wait for the Dali Temple to investigate carefully." , It’s not too late to make an assertion. Don’t let the father, the queen, and the queen lose their health because of this incident, and take care of yourself.”

My husband is really a smooth-faced person. Seeing that Yu Wenjian and Empress Chen clearly expressed their dissatisfaction with this matter, they no longer acted like a villain, but generously excused Yu Wenxuan.

Yu Wenjian and Empress Chen will certainly not be suspicious of Yu Wenxuan because of his flirtatious words. He has gained a good reputation of being objective and fair, which is really a wonderful move.

Sure enough, even though Yu Wenchang pleaded for Yu Wenxuan in this way, Empress Chen still looked unfriendly, and said angrily: "If the prince is safe and secure and guards the princess alone, how could there be such a farce today! A prince of a country, even a private person The concubine's room can't be controlled, and the scandal of pampering concubines and destroying wives is caused, and if it spreads, the position of the heir is unnecessary."

Yu Wenjian remained silent for a long time, then suddenly said: "This matter should not be handed over to Dali Temple for scrutiny. There is a saying among the people that family ugliness should not be publicized. At the moment, the most important thing is to appease Yuan Xiaoju. As for how the crown princess died, I, together with your mother, will give a decent account."

Now that the matter has come to an end, Yu Wenjian still reveals his partiality for the prince in his words, which makes me wonder whether Yu Wenxuan will really be deposed as the prince this time, or will it end in a farce with a lot of thunder and a little rain ?

Yu Wenchang nodded and retreated to sit beside me.

Empress Chen murmured, "No matter what, this Yun Zhaoxun must never be left behind."

Yu Wenjian looked at Yu Wenchang with his gray eyes for a long time, patted Yu Wenchang on the shoulder, and said with a sigh: "Ayong, the prince made a big mistake this time, and your mother and I need to rush back to Yecheng to deal with this matter. I won't stay any longer."

Knowing that such a major event cannot be delayed, we dare not stay, so we immediately ordered people to prepare the car and hurriedly arranged for Yu Wenjian and Empress Chen to return to Beijing.

We breathed a sigh of relief when there was no one around the empress in Jin Palace.After so much fuss and desperation, I can finally come to a conclusion for the time being.

Seeing Yu Wenchang frowning, I asked, "Ayong, will Your Majesty depose the crown prince this time?"

Yu Wenchang embraced me and walked towards the inner courtyard, picked an apricot flower casually, and put it on my high-up hairpin, "As long as the matter is big enough, this prince, even if my father doesn't want to abolish it, can It must be abolished!"

His relaxed appearance made me know that he must have a plan for deposing the prince.

"Then Ah Yong wants to take advantage of this opportunity to make a secret move to completely cut off Yu Wenxuan's retreat?"

Yu Wenchang lowered his sleeves, lowered his voice, and replied: "If you don't make a move at this time, when will you wait? There are many smart people in Daxing Palace who will add fuel to the fire. I have already made arrangements."

A person's name suddenly flashed in my mind, and I blurted out: "Is Ah Yong planning to use Shen Yan's hand to do this?"

As soon as I said it, I regretted it.

Seeing Yu Wenchang's puzzled and unbelievable expression, I knew I was being smart and guessed the wrong candidate.

He obviously didn't expect that I would suddenly mention Shen Yanzhi, he couldn't help turning his body, and asked with a smile: "Why, the princess is very impressed with Brother Shen, thinks he can help me bring down the prince?"

When there is no one in private, Yu Wenchang would always call my boudoir name Huaijin, but now he called me the princess in a serious manner. I was afraid that he would be angry, so I hurriedly changed the subject: "The king of Jin should already have a good candidate in his heart, Huaijin Jin is so stupid that he really can't guess who this person is."

"Have you ever heard of Yu Wensu?" Yu Wenchang asked me.

Who doesn't know Yu Wensu, a military official of Min State who has power over the government and the public?

Yu Wensu was originally from a noble family in the Northern Dynasties. He served as a chariot general in Xishan and commanded the famous battle to pacify the Northern Qi Dynasty.He and Yu Wenjian had a deep bond. After Yu Wenjian became the emperor, Yu Wensu was also promoted to the doctor of Min Guo Yushi.

I replied, "Is that the imperial censor nicknamed Chu Jingwu Gong?"

Yu Wenchang nodded, "I have some friendship with this person. After my father returns to the palace, as long as my mother and I give him secret instructions, Yu Wenxuan's crown prince will definitely be in jeopardy."

It turns out that Yu Wenchang had plans long ago where I didn't know.

Since ancient times, all those who ascended to great positions have foresight and careful planning.This time Yu Wenxuan came to the door by himself, no wonder Yu Wenchang wanted to plot against him.

Two months later, I was resting in a gazebo in the mansion when I suddenly saw Yu Wenchang pressing his forehead without saying a word.

The weather has turned cold these few days, and it's autumn sleepy, tired, and lazy. Seeing that he seemed unhappy, I asked, "What's wrong with Ah Yong today?"

Asking this in his mouth, in fact, he was already speculating in his heart whether it was related to the events in Daxing Palace.

Yu Wenchang sighed lowly: "After the father and queen mother returned to the palace, they immediately issued an order to put Yun Zhaoxun under house arrest in the Hall of Liangyi and interrogate him severely. However, no matter how severe the torture, Yun Zhaoxun still refused to admit that he poisoned the prince and concubine. Yuan Xiaoju, Yu Wensu and several ministers repeatedly advised to depose the prince, but the father was always hesitant and refused to issue an order. It is heard that the three sons born to Yu Wenxuan and Yun Zhaoxun yesterday wore plain clothes and knelt in Liangyi At the gate of the hall, weeping bitterly, weeping how cruel the father and queen mother were, making them lose their parents at a young age."

I said: "These children are young, how could they come up with such a method to soften the hearts of their parents, I'm afraid there are some experts behind them to give advice."

Yu Wenchang took a while to reply: "After all, Yu Wenxuan is the current crown prince, and the interest groups involved behind him are not insignificant. Once something happens to him, those people will of course be very anxious and rack their brains to think of ways to get him out of danger!"

"It's just that this method is really high. If the father, the queen, and the queen don't take into account the filial piety of the young children, they will definitely attract criticism. It seems that Yu Wenxuan will escape this time." I sighed.

Yu Wenchang frowned, didn't say a word, thought for a moment, and then said: "Yu Wensu flew a pigeon to pass on the letter today, and my father has ordered Yun Zhaoxun to be released tomorrow, and Yu Wenxuan's crimes will not be pursued for the time being."

Seeing that the corners of his lips were tightly pursed, I hurriedly persuaded: "Ah Yong, don't be discouraged, you can still live with the evil done by the sky, but you can't live with the evil done by yourself. The tail, then you can draw it slowly."

"What Huaijin said... also makes sense." Yu Wenchang responded casually.

In fact, we all know in our hearts that Yu Wenxuan suffered a big loss this time, and he will definitely not fall twice in the same place in the future. It will be as difficult as heaven to catch him again.

The corner of Yu Wenchang's eyes glanced at my stomach, and he suddenly asked me: "Half a year has passed now... When will Huaijin add a little son to me, so as to make the Prince Jin's mansion a little popular, otherwise, this huge palace will always be a waste of money." It's lifeless, lifeless. Wouldn't it be much more lively if there were a child?"
