"Mother-in-law, you have your considerations, and my son-in-law understands your hardships. But think about it. If you don't use extraordinary measures, it may not be possible to have a good result in the current situation. You must know the emperor's attitude towards the prince, and the queen mother must speak, so that the emperor will be afraid. You really have to think twice. Lin Jue exerted further pressure.

Guo Caiwei looked at Lin Jue pleadingly and said: "Husband, don't force your mother, your mother thinks she can't say it, it must be something you can't say." Otherwise, how could my mother be like this? If the Queen Mother refused to speak, I knelt for three days and three nights until her old man was willing to forgive her father. ”

Lin Jue sighed: "Stupid words, anyone in the palace will backfire if they come forward." On the contrary, it aroused the emperor's disgust even more. And who does the Queen Mother's heart yearn for? Isn't that obvious? You were there that day when I talked to my father-in-law, don't you know the secret? ”

Guo Caiwei was silent. She knew that things were difficult to do, but when she saw Lin Jue persecuting her mother so much, she couldn't bear it. The husband insisted on exploring the truth about what happened to Concubine Rong back then, and wanted to use this to achieve the goal of forcing Concubine Rong to submit, but is this really right? Is it really necessary? Guo Caiwei had a trace of doubt in her heart.

"Mother-in-law, the son-in-law doesn't say much, since the mother-in-law thinks that she can't say it, then naturally there is a reason why she can't say it. The son-in-law was too anxious about this matter, so his words were a little impatient and abrupt, and he asked his mother-in-law not to be surprised. Let's go back to the cabin with my mother-in-law to rest, I'll have a few more drinks here, get myself drunk, and don't think about anything. In short, the next thing is that the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, if the ending is really not good, then there is no way. Let's face it together. It's a big deal to die together. Lin Jue sighed and raised his glass to dry.

Guo Caiwei glared at Lin Jue with disgust, turned to the princess and said, "Mother, let's go back to the room to rest." You went to bed early tonight and drank a lot of wine. ”

The pale-faced princess originally lowered her head, but at this moment she suddenly raised her head and said, "Lin Jue, pour wine for my mother." ”

Lin Jue was stunned and said, "Mother-in-law, this is ......"

The princess grabbed the wine jug, poured herself a large glass of realgar wine, and drank it with a bang.

The little county lord hurriedly said: "Mother, drink slowly, this wine is still very strong, don't get drunk." ”

The princess ignored it, drank the wine dry in a few sips, and reached out to grab the flask again. Guo Caiwei hurriedly stopped her, but Lin Jue reached out and grabbed the wine jug and filled another large glass for the princess. At the same time, I poured myself a glass. The mother-in-law and son-in-law actually touched the glass, and the two craned their necks to drink the wine in the cup again. Guo Caiwei stared angrily at the side, her husband was really too much today.

Two large glasses of realgar wine were swallowed, and the princess's pale face was red again, and her body was shaky. His eyes stared at Lin Jue with some drunkenness and said, "Lin Jue, my mother-in-law's alcohol consumption has not decreased back then." Back then, even the prince couldn't drink me. When did the two of us drink together, and he begged for mercy if he didn't drink? ”

Lin Jue picked his fingers and praised: "My mother-in-law is really massive. The son-in-law admired. So, are you ready? ”

The princess nodded and said, "It's ready, the wine is bold." I'm drunk today anyway, and if something happens in the future, I'll just think I'm drunk. ”

Lin Jue smiled and said, "Yes, what I said today is all drunken words, and I can't take it seriously." ”

Guo Caiwei was stunned and said, "Mother, husband, what kind of dumb riddle are you playing?" ”

Lin Jue smiled: "Wei'er, come, I'll find you a cushion, you can sit comfortably." Listen to your mother tell us stories. The story must be wonderful, I'm sure. ”

The princess was drunk, burped without an image, and nodded, "Okay, I said." Don't you know what you've always wanted to know? My mother will tell you today. Not...... Where to start? As I said last time, I left the capital with the prince and had no contact with Yourong. The last time I said we had no connection, it was actually false. I go to the capital to live in the capital with the prince for a period of time every year, how can there be no contact? Yes, we've always been close. It's very difficult, there are few female dependents between the royal family who are as close to each other as me and Yourong. We talk about everything together, we really have nothing to talk about. ”

The princess turned her head and looked out of the captain's window in the hall.

Outside the window, the sun sets over the long river, and the sunset is brilliant. The sparkling golden light of the river reflects the boats on the water and the trees on the shore. The clouds in the sky were like a pile of burning flames, fiery red and beautiful. The light shone in through the long window of the ship's hall, and even the people and tables and chairs in the ship's hall were gilded with a layer of golden light, which seemed extremely unreal.

On the opposite river, a building boat slowly approached, passing by the big boat. On the bow of the ship, a table of feasts was placed. Several scribes were drinking themselves. On the deck, two singers were singing and dancing. The singing came faintly, Lin Jue listened carefully, and what he sang turned out to be a lyric from the famous drama "Peach Blossom Fan" of the Jiangnan Grand Theater. Name: "Mourning Jiangnan"

"I once saw the warbler crying in the Jinling Jade Palace, and the flowers in the Qinhuai Water Pavilion bloomed early, who knew that it would be easy to freeze! Seeing him raise the Zhu Tower, seeing him feast guests, seeing his building collapse! This moss and green tile pile, I once slept and slept well, and I saw the rise and fall of fifty years. That Wuyi Lane is not surnamed Wang, the ghost of Mochou Lake cries at night, and the phoenix perches on the owl bird. The dream of the remnant mountain is the truest, the old realm is difficult to lose, I don't believe in this map change! A set of "Mourning Jiangnan", singing sadly until old age. ”

This song is poignant and resentful, and under the sunset, the empty rivers and mountains drift far away, and it penetrates into the heart. The three of them on the big boat heard it, and when they heard such a song at this moment, their hearts were even more complicated and indescribable, and they had all kinds of tastes.

The princess frowned, and her mood was very bad. She sighed, slowly turned her head, and slowly opened her lips and said, "Lin Jue, Wei'er, what I told you today...... You must not say it. This is even worse than the prince killing Kang Zizhen. If it is preached, there will be no way to survive in the Liang Palace, and nothing will save us. ”

Guo Caiwei was stunned and said, "Mother." Don't scare me. If it's really so important, don't talk about it. ”

Lin Jue said softly: "Of course I have to say it." It's a critical moment, and there's nothing to scrupulously about. The fire burns the eyebrows, what else do you want? If you can't pass this hurdle in front of you, let alone anything else? Besides, we will keep it a secret, and no one will talk nonsense. ”

The princess nodded lightly and said, "Yes, the fire burns the eyebrows, and looks at the present." I believe that Lin Jue will be careful and know how to advance and retreat. ”

The little county lord sighed and was silent, she knew that her husband was determined to know this secret. However, she also believes that Lin Jue will not mess around. The fate of the palace and the fate of his husband and wife have actually been linked, Lin Jue knows this, so he is worried because his father killed Kang Zizhen, and racked his brains. So, let him go.

"Let's start with me and the prince leaving the capital and coming to Hangzhou. Speaking of which...... That must have been seventeen years ago. Before, the prince turned his face with Lu Zhongtian in the capital, and there was a lot of trouble. The Great Prince...... Not...... It is the emperor of today...... and because of the matter of establishing the prince, he had some trouble with the prince. The prince couldn't stay in the capital anymore, so the emperor asked the prince to come to Hangzhou to suppress the bandits, in fact, it was also for the good of the prince. That summer, we came to Hangzhou......" The princess looked up and fell into the memory.

Lin Jue naturally knew some old things about Guo Bing back then. Back then, Guo Bing not only had a falling out with Lu Zhongtian, but also made a fuss. was also set a trap by Lu Zhongtian, saying that he coveted the position of the crown prince and had a relationship with the eldest prince Guo Chong. In that case, the emperor let him come to Hangzhou in order to protect the prince, and guarded it in the name of suppressing bandits, which was to avoid the tragedy of fratricide.

“…… After coming to Hangzhou, the prince was busy exterminating the bandits, and I took Wei'er, who was less than two years old, and Kun'er, who was nine years old, in the mansion. I don't know the place well, I am not used to eating and sleeping, and I can't even understand what the locals are talking about. There are no acquaintances and friends to talk to. During that time, it was really boring. Fortunately, Wei'er was babbling at that time, and she was also cute and cute, and she was by my side every day, which also solved a lot of boring times. Hey, in the blink of an eye, my Wei'er is about to become a mother. Life flies so fast. The princess looked at Guo Caiwei and sighed.

Lin Jue glanced at the little county lord, and the little county lord smiled at Lin Jue, it was indeed charming and cute. Lin Jue thought to himself, such a lovely child, when he was a child, he must have been extremely cute.

“…… After coming to Hangzhou, many people in the capital lost contact. Child-...... Oh, it's the current Rong Guifei. She married the crown prince as a side concubine the year before, and we also broke off contact. It's not that I want to do it, but ...... The prince won't let me have any more dealings with her. I don't blame the prince for this, after all, the prince is suspicious of the prince, and he is very close to Lu Zhongtian. married Lu Zhongtian's daughter Lu Mei as a side concubine. Oh, it's the current Concubine Mei, the mother of King Huai. The prince said, from now on, I must not associate with Yourong, so as not to give birth to words and cause trouble. Try not to provoke the prince, lest there be trouble in the future. When I heard this, I naturally had no choice but to agree. However, I didn't look for Yourong, but Yourong took the initiative to write to me, and I hid from the prince and Yourong to write letters, after all, Yourong is my best friend in the capital, and we are like sisters, and I miss her very much. ”

Guo Caiwei frowned and said: "Men's affairs should not involve women." The relationship between the mother and Concubine Rong is good, what does it have to do with the relationship between the emperor and his father? I really don't understand these things. ”

The princess smiled and said, "Silly boy, you naturally don't understand. But your daddy was right to be worried. If you get involved in the affairs of the prince's mansion, it is indeed easy to cause trouble. ”

Guo Caiwei said: "What can happen." It's just a meeting of friends. ”

Lin Jue smiled and said: "Wei'er thinks about it simply, the relationship between her mother-in-law and Concubine Rong is indeed a simple sisterhood and friendship, but in the eyes of outsiders, it is not the case. Isn't the pattern in the Prince's Mansion still clear at a glance? Yuan is the crown princess, although she is the daughter of an old minister of the previous dynasty, but she is actually lacking in family status. If it weren't for the prince's care, her identity as a concubine would be unsustainable. That Lu Mei is Lu Zhongtian's daughter, and she has already overwhelmed the Yuan family in terms of momentum. And the queen mother asked her niece to marry the prince as the other concubine, which was actually a trend of rebellion. The pattern in the Taigong is like a three-third trend in the world. The pattern of Yuan's, Lu's, and Wei's competing for favor. ”

Guo Caiwei frowned and said, "But, what does this have to do with my mother?" ”
