Chapter 712: Sealing the King
Chapter 712: The King (Page 1/1)
After the luncheon, everyone went back to their own houses, or if they were far away, they lived in the houses of nearby people. When it was time for the supper, everyone was still gathered in the temple. The old emperor had already made his will, just waiting for it to be announced today.
The queen glanced at Bai Mu happily, and in the sound of the silk bamboo piano and the light song and dance, Yu Mengmeng immediately saw her viciousness.
Intuitively, something bad will happen.
Sure enough, when the old emperor read out the will, Yu Mengmeng heard that Bai Mu was named the king of Cebei, and asked him to take his own team of men and horses to guard the fief from now on.
Is this what it means to take Bai Mu away?
Patiently waiting for the will to be read out, Yu Mengmeng walked up to the emperor, first bowed down, and then spoke: "Your Majesty, the lord of this county has just arrived, and he has come back with His Royal Highness the Seventh, if he leaves the capital, won't the lord of this county have no chance to take a walk in this capital?" ”
As she spoke, her eyes looked around and took in everyone's looks. The old emperor didn't have any expression, and Yu Mengmeng noticed that he was also so calm-hearted, as if he had just returned, and it was not his own son who was about to be sent to the harsh land of the northern frontier.
Although the queen tried her best to restrain herself, the viciousness that flashed in her eyes betrayed her.
The moment he lowered his head, Yu Mengmeng's eyes were cold.
The most ruthless imperial family. Although she was prepared, her heart shook between the sudden touch.
She told herself more than once that this was just Bai Mu's "family" and had nothing to do with her.
But I still can't help but want to empathize.
If so, if this is her own family, how should she deal with it?
When the old emperor heard Yu Mengmeng's words, he laughed loudly twice, and then said heartily: "County lord, I have many sons, and there are also many ministers, they can be civil and martial, and whoever the county lord has a crush on, I will let whoever accompany the county lord to travel in Beijing for a few days." ”
The old emperor didn't seem to realize the purpose behind Yu Mengmeng's words. But the queen was very keen, and glanced at Yu Mengmeng, gritting her teeth. Yu Mengmeng suddenly understood that the driving force behind this will was probably the queen.
The crown prince Bai Yun is really so good, he is already the pride of the sky, and the queen will actually guard against a powerless prince who has just returned from another country, which shows how well this queen does things.
Yu Mengmeng listened to the old emperor's words and laughed softly. Then he lowered his voice and said: "In the emperor's palace, there are many natural talents, but none of these individuals are familiar with the lord of this county. I am afraid that I will not feel comfortable if I want someone to accompany me. It is best to live under the Seventh Highness of the Qi Kingdom since childhood. The lord of this county is familiar with him, and with him as his companion, he can relieve the homesickness of ten years; Second, with the help of His Royal Highness, the lord of this county will not be bound to walk around because he is a living person. ”
When the old emperor heard Yu Mengmeng's words, he really fell into his ears and pondered. Just when Yu Mengmeng was a little relieved, the queen mother who was sitting next to the old emperor suddenly spoke, and smiled softly, which was graceful and luxurious, "Your Majesty, the county lord's words are reasonable, but His Royal Highness the Seventh has been named the king of Cebei, how can he be worthy of the county lord in Beijing?" What's more, the son of the palace can also go to what the county lord said, and walk around the capital with the county lord. ”
When Yu Mengmeng heard this, he couldn't help frowning. The queen's appearance, it seems, is that no matter what, she will not be able to get along with her. Even the moment she looked up, the way the queen looked at her made her frightened.
Looking at Bai Yunzhen again, the other party listened to the words of the queen's mother, and there was nothing to do. At this time, he looked at Yu Mengmeng and smiled generously.
Yu Mengmeng had no choice but to stiffen his neck and continue: "Back to the queen's mother, the county lord also feels that the queen mother has worked so hard for the county lord's affairs, and his heart is very moved. But outside the prince's palace, after all, he is the prince, although he is not as busy as the emperor all day, but he also works hard. Let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince be with the lord of the county, and it is also the queen's mother to give herself face, but it is really a little useless. ”
In any case, Bai Mu can't leave the capital, otherwise, no matter how capable she is, she can't snatch the throne for Bai Mu empty-handed.
When she was in a dilemma, the crown prince Bai Yunzhen stood up, looked at Yu Mengmeng, and said that he was very willing to accompany Yu Mengmeng to play during the time that Yu Mengmeng was in Kyoto.
Yu Mengmeng listened, and suddenly one head and two big.
At this time, the old emperor finally saw that the county lord of the Qi State was using an excuse to play, but in fact, he just wanted to use this to say that Bai Mu would stay in Beijing for a few days.
He doesn't have any special feelings for his seventh child, and this time he comes back, so naturally he doesn't have to rush to pose a situation of father's love and filial piety, it's just to show people. So, last night, when the queen mentioned it, he agreed casually.
Originally, except for the crown prince, the other princes should have been crowned kings and left the capital. There is nothing wrong with the old emperor consciously doing this.
At this moment, when he heard Yu Mengmeng secretly pleading and had to leave Bai Mu, he looked at Bai Mu.
Is it because he wants to be in Beijing, so Yu Mengmeng, a seemingly unrelated outsider, will intercede for her?
Or did he come back this time for an unusual purpose?
But no matter what, even if a powerless vassal king keeps him in Beijing, what waves can he make?
The old emperor's eyes flickered, and he looked at Bai Yunzhen and said, "Prince, what do you think?" What he was referring to was naturally the matter of wanting Bai Mu to continue to stay in Kyoto.
Bai Yunzhen naturally understood, nodded and replied: "Erchen thinks that what the county lord said is reasonable, and it can meet the county lord's request." ”
This was said so loudly that Yu Mengmeng couldn't help but want to give him a thumbs up. She didn't believe that Bai Yun was so simple, and she wouldn't understand her purpose of leaving Bai Mu in the capital with her life.
But he didn't care at all, and even the wind was light, as if this was something he did on a whim, and let it go, obviously because Bai Yun was sure in his heart that even if it was here, Bai Mu, a powerless prince, would not be able to turn the sky at all.
Since the other party's strength is so weak, it is better to let him stay and pass the time of his boredom.
The queen immediately looked at the prince with unconventional eyes, and the prince gave her a reassuring look, and then quickly looked away.
The guilt that rose in Yu Mengmeng's heart suddenly disappeared!
