Chapter 1250: Loyal Servant (2)
Yang Huairen said badly, the thing he didn't want to get involved in the last thing finally came to the door by mistake.
He was unwilling to get involved in the affairs of the court, and compared to the bad things in the court, what he was even more unwilling to do was to get involved in the bad things in the emperor's harem.
Looking at the child on the stone table again, Yang Huairen can guess without thinking about it, this must be because I don't know which lady in the harem gave birth to the prince, and I was afraid of being harmed, so I found Guan Qiuli to steal it out of the palace at the risk of killing her head and destroying the door.
The fact that Guan Qiuli was looking for Yang Huairen by name is a little puzzling.
Yang Huairen pondered, which lady in the palace can look down on him so much, give him a prince to protect?
Thinking about it again, things are not right, whether it is in the original history or in the history that Yang Huairen is experiencing now, Zhao Xu has no son, otherwise he would not have to pass the throne to his younger brother Duan Wang Zhao Ji in the future.
Recently, I can only hear about the mother who has just given birth in the palace, and there is only Queen Meng, but she gave birth to a princess, and Zhao Xu immediately gave the name of Princess Fuqing.
In any case, Princess Fuqing was Zhao Xu's first child, and he did not treat the child lightly because Empress Meng was not the queen he chose.
What was the original history, Yang Huairen only remembered some major events, the affairs of the harem, he didn't know, he only knew that Empress Meng would be abolished in the future, but there was nowhere to think about time.
So who gave birth to this prince? Yang Huairen was a little worried, so he had to wait for Guan Qiuli to explain the truth of the matter one by one.
Yang Huairen said, "Guan Qiuli, you get up and speak, let me ask you, you came to me specially with a child in the palace, what is going on?" ”
Guan Qiuli was still kneeling on the ground, raised his head slightly and replied, "Lord Wang, you first promise to take this child in, and your subordinates will inform Lord Wang Ye of the ins and outs of this child." ”
Yang Huairen sighed, no matter whether he takes in this child now or not, the child has already been carried to his house, and he will not be able to escape the incident in the east window in the future, so he has to nod, "I promise you, you can say it." ”
Guan Qiuli was so relieved that she kowtowed three times in a row, and blood came out of her forehead, and then she said, "The child is Queen Meng's parent." ”
"What!?"
Yang Huairen was shocked, involuntarily picked up the child, untied the swaddling clothes and took a look, and after confirming that the child was a boy, he was not well.
What's going on? Didn't you say that Queen Meng was born a princess, why did she suddenly become a prince at this time?
If this boy is really Empress Meng's parent, then isn't he the crown prince of the Great Song Dynasty? Yang Huairen's mentality was a little explosive, and he said that things were complicated, why did Guan Qiuli bring such a big bomb to him?
"Guan Qiuli, Guan Qiuli, I have no grievances with you, why did you harm me?"
Guan Qiuli knew that she felt guilty about Yang Huairen like this, so she buried her head and kowtowed.
Yang Huairen stretched out his hand and pulled him up, and said with a bitter face, "What's the use of your old kowtow?" Tell me what happened, I have to let me know what's going on, right? ”
Guan Qiuli stood up, and at this time, the blood on his forehead had already flowed down his face, making He Zhiyun and others in the distance puzzled.
Obviously, the man in black came to Yang Huairen, it was definitely not unfavorable to Yang Huairen, he kowtowed to Yang Huairen again, and there was blood on his head, he should have begged Yang Huairen for something.
But Yang Huairen also had a sad face, as if things were very difficult to do, but what was going on, because the two of them were now standing a hundred steps away, and none of them could hear clearly.
Guan Qiuli said slowly, "Lord Wang, listen to your subordinates slowly talk about things." His subordinates entered the palace since he was a child, and by chance he met a master in the palace to learn martial arts, and his subordinate brother was Ye Gonggong, the chief of internal security.
More than 30 years ago, his subordinates were dragged by Gonggong Ye to join a mysterious organization in the palace and work for Queen Gao at that time, and then his subordinates learned that this organization was the internal guard established by Queen Gao.
At the beginning, the purpose of the internal guard was to protect the interests of the Great Song royal family, and the subordinates were just helping Empress Gao enter and leave the palace to deliver news, but later, Manager Ye began to instruct his subordinates to carry out some assassination activities, and at that time, the subordinates gradually understood that the nature of the internal guard was not so simple from the beginning.
It is false to work for the royal family, and it is true to help Queen Gao establish a force in the dark, but his subordinates are in the inner guard, but they can't get out.
His subordinates did a lot of evil things back then, and murdered a lot of loyal people in the DPRK, because his subordinates had good skills and cruel killing methods, and they also broke out of the name of the shadowless monkey in the rivers and lakes.
But his subordinates actually didn't want to live like this for the rest of their lives, so they hurt themselves and used the excuse to quit the internal defense ......"
When Guan Qiuli said this, Yang Huairen subconsciously looked down, and then saw that Guan Qiuli's legs were obviously different in thickness, the left leg was no different from a normal person, but the lower leg of the right leg was obviously much thinner, and it should have cut off the right foot, made a prosthetic foot and pressed it.
Yang Huairen was puzzled, "Guan Qiuli, your light skills are so good, it doesn't look like you are missing a leg." ”
Guan Qiuli shook his head, "It was also a helpless move at that time. The subordinate self-mutilated his right leg, so he could not kill for Queen Gao, and Queen Gao saw that her subordinates had done a lot of things for her, so she did not kill her subordinates, but left her subordinates in the palace and secretly helped her monitor other concubines.
Although his subordinates lost a right leg, his subordinates practiced secretly and left seventy or eighty percent of the original martial arts, so this time he broke into the prince's mansion at night, and no one found out. ”
Yang Huairen nodded, and said in his heart that Guan Qiuli is not a person who has lost his conscience, and he can realize that what Neiwei did at the beginning is wrong, and he can still restrain himself from the precipice, and use such an extreme way to protect his conscience, he can be regarded as a good person.
On the other hand, a person who can be so ruthless to himself cannot use the four-dimensional mode of ordinary people to figure out his psychology.
"And then, you continue."
"Obey the order," Guan Qiuli continued, "Monitoring this kind of thing, compared to killing people, can make the subordinates feel much better, at least from that time on, the subordinates will no longer harm other people's families."
However, since then, the status of his subordinates in the internal guard has also plummeted, and even his subordinate senior brother Ye Gonggong has regarded his subordinates as a waste.
In fact, it's okay, although the subordinates are missing a leg, they can live in peace, and the subordinates have achieved their goals.
Since then, his subordinates have become an inconspicuous father-in-law in the palace, plus he has lost a leg, so the people in the palace, whether it is the master or the servant like the father-in-law and the palace maid, no one regards the subordinates as a thing anymore.
It's like living in nothingness, no one cares, and no one remembers......"
