Chapter 19 Empress Wen's Burial
Cui said: "It's not all the master's fault. The master also took the beauty plan arranged by Otsukazai, and almost ruined the Dugu family because of this. The master will see through it as soon as possible..."
Dugu Xin put his feet into the steaming wooden basin, stepped on it firmly, enjoying the warmth of water and wood fragrance. Dugu Xin closed his eyes: "Do you still remember that Master Daoxuan once said that our Xiaoqi is the rich and noble appearance of the mother in the world?"
Cui asked: "Master, do you believe the rumors too?" Dugu Xin opened his eyes: "Master Daoxuan will not speak nonsense. The nun who served as the master of Yang Jian was a disciple of Master Daoxuan, and the master's attention to this child was self-evident."
Cui was very confused: "But Master Daoxuan taught nothing to Mr. Yang! Mr. Yang has been wandering in the market for many years and has almost become a little gangster. He has been abandoned in studying and practicing martial arts."
Dugu Xin said: "This is exactly what I am confused about. Yang Jian is of average talent and has nothing special. Compared to his brother Yang Jin who studied calligraphy at the age of three and wrote poetry at the age of seven, he is almost a thousand miles away."
Mrs. Cui said: "Master, what do you think Yang Jian is doing now?"
The first thing Yang Jian did when he returned to Yang's mansion was to pay tribute to the old lady. Ling Yun said: "The old lady has already fallen asleep."
Yang Jian still insisted on coming. After the old lady went to bed, except for the servants on duty, everyone else fell asleep. Yang Jian tiptoed into the old lady's room alone.
Yang Jian sat down beside the old lady's bed. For some reason, he suddenly couldn't help but burst into tears. Yang Jian said softly: "Grandma, do you know that Gala was detained by Otsukasaku."
Yang Jian wiped his tears: "I saw her being taken away, but there was no way. Although I kept playing and joking on weekdays, only she could give me any advice and be willing to take care of it with me. Now I am really alone."
Yang Jian hugged his head with both hands and burst into tears. Yang Jian cried as he suddenly felt a big hand wrapping around him. He looked up and saw that it was an old lady.
Yang Jian said with tears in his eyes: "Grandma, I'm sorry, I woke you up." The old lady said: "Jian'er, you've been miserable! It'll be fine, it'll be fine!"
Yang Jian leaned into his grandmother's arms and cried bitterly. Although Yang Song had not attended the banquet, he had been in the office for more than two years and had many ears and ears under his command. He also heard about Gala being detained.
The second wife asked Yang Song suspiciously: "Did the third young lady stay with Otsukazunai to put the shit basin at our house? I tell you that you must cut off your relationship with them and make a quick decision!"
Yang Song didn't want to listen to the second wife's nonsense anymore. He silently went back to the room and turned off the lights and went to bed. He lay on the bed, but he couldn't sleep.
Yang Song thought: Why is it Yang Jian? Why is it ignorant? Yang Jian, who is like a gangster in the market, wouldn't be so disappointed if Gala married Prince Yong or his eldest brother Yang Zheng.
The moonlight was quietly spread on the ground, and so many people were destined to fall asleep on this night!
Gala called Princess Yu’s maid Hua Shang, and she whispered: “I’ll go out and you’ll serve the two princes here.
When Yuwen Yong heard this, he grabbed Gala: Forget Gala, don’t go! I’m so nervous that you can stay and talk to me.
Hua Shang volunteered to say: Yes, Miss Seven, what if the princess comes back and doesn't see you and asks me for someone, what should I do? If Miss Seven wants to do anything, just send me! Gala looked at her and ordered: Hua Shang, if you want to do this... you have to be brave!
Hua Shang smiled and said: I dare not say anything else, I am born with courage! Gala said solemnly: Is it? In addition to being brave, I also have to be careful.
Hua Shang hesitated and said: I thought carefully? Then... it's hard to say! Gala reminded him: I'll teach you! You can find a way to sneak into the palace and help Prince Yong find out the situation in the palace! If someone makes things difficult for you, you will say that you are following my order to find my elder sister, but because you are just a first-timer and accidentally get lost. Do you understand?
Hua Shang nodded: OK! I will try my best! Yuwen Yong said gratefully: Hua Shang, thank you. Be careful of everything! Hua Shang smiled and said: It’s okay, Prince Yong, don’t thank me, I can’t afford it!
Gala thought about it carefully and felt uneasy. She pulled Hua Shang aside and whispered: I think, my elder sister's words may be correct.
This is not Dugu Mansion. We have to learn to listen more and speak less. Even if we have something, we have to think about whether we should say it first. So, if you find out something... Alas! In short, don't say it in front of Yuwen Yong, and tell me privately first to avoid causing trouble.
Hua Shang nodded understandingly: I know Miss Seven. Don't worry! Gala said worriedly: I hope nothing will happen. Otherwise, Yuwen Yong may...
Princess Yu was like an ant on a hot pan in the living room of the clan's residence, resting and strideing back and forth. The slaves in Yuwen Hu's residence have been in for a long time, but he is really seriously ill in bed, can't he meet guests?
Why did he not get sick early or late, but he got sick at this critical moment? The more Princess Yu thought about it, the more she felt that the situation was not good, and she was pounding in her heart. She was about to say goodbye, but she saw Yuwen Hu walking out of the inner room slowly.
Princess Yu went up to him and found that Yu Wen Xun was full of light. She said in confusion: Brother Xun, I am waiting in the mansion, but I will never see you after waiting. After inquiring, I realized that you are sick, but I have something important to tell you, so I have to come to the door... Brother, I think you look okay!
Yu Wenxun smiled bitterly and said: Brother and sister, I know you are a wise man, so I saw you. That's right, I deliberately called you sick just to not dare to go to the mansion! By the way, don't tell Prince Yu.
Princess Yu was surprised: Why don’t you dare to come? Yu Wenxun wanted to say something but stopped: This... Princess Yu asked: Is it the last words about Emperor Wen?
Yu Wenxun looked at Princess Yu in surprise, without nodding or shaking his head. He was still thinking carefully in his heart. As the saying goes, if one move is not careful, the whole game will be lost. Who dares to joke about his life?
Princess Yu asked again: Brother Xun, is it true that the emperor ordered Prince Yong to ascend the throne and you will be assisting the government? Yu Wenxun asked in surprise: The news has been blocked, who told you?
Princess Yu panicked: Do you know that they forced my prince to say yes... the empress dowager must be buried with her!
Yuwen Hu changed his color when he heard this, he was stunned for a while, and murmured to himself: I don’t understand the true intention of the Emperor. I cultivate Yuwen Jue, but I also favor Yuwen Yong. Now, with only the words of the Empress Dowager, there is no clear will. Yuwen Yong is young, so how can he fight... Alas! The situation is stronger than others!
Princess Yu choked and said: The emperor just left, and he closed the empress dowager and died again. This... this is so miserable... Brother Yuwen Hu, you are the elder brother, you have to think of a solution!
Yuwen Hu shook his head tiredly and smiled bitterly: Brother and sister, think about my situation too. If I fight for Yuwen Yong, everyone will definitely suspect that I am greedy for the position of government. Besides, although I am the prince of Jin, how can I compete for my father?”
While the two were talking, Yu Wenxun's wife, the princess, came in hurriedly. Princess Yu hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. Yu Wenxun's wife smiled and held her arm, and pulled her down intimately.
Yu Wenxun asked cautiously: Did you remind them? Princess Yu comes to see us, so you must not tell me this!
The princess nodded: Don't worry, I've given me some advice. However, my second brother sent someone again, and this time I'm asking you to go to him. Yu Wenxun's face changed slightly and he said angrily: Didn't you say I'm sick?
The princess explained hurriedly: I said it, but the man said another sentence, if you say you can't get out of sickness, your second brother will come to the door in person and wait for us until you are willing to come out!
Yu Wenxun was stunned when he heard this, his heart was in a mess. After a while, he sighed heavily: Forget it, for nothing! You can't even avoid the troubles you deserve!
Yu Wenxun ordered the servants to prepare horses, and he was going to Yuwenshen. Princess Yu grabbed him and begged: Brother, try to think of a solution! Yu Wenxun looked embarrassed, so he escaped Princess Yu's eyes and sighed and walked out of the hall.
Princess Yu shook her head in despair, feeling extremely sad inside. She truly felt the feeling of cruelty and ruthlessness.
The night was as dark as ink, dull and depressing. Inside and outside the Eternal Hall of the Queen Mother's bedroom, black crows were full of people. They were the royal family led by Yuwen Yu. What was incredible is that despite the large number of people, they were silent, and everyone's face was solemn and solemn.
Yuwen Hu's sons walked into the bedroom with awesome momentum, and stood silently. The Empress Dowager's personal maid greeted her and asked timidly: Everyone, this is...
Yuwen Hui's expression was as cold as iron. He did not answer, but turned his head and looked at Yuwen Xun. Yuwen Xun was confused and turned his head away.
Yuwen Hui turned around, sneered slightly, thought for a while, and said to the maid: Otsukazu sent us to meet the Queen Mother. You go and invite the Queen Mother out.
Yuwen Hu glanced at Yuwen Hui with anger. Yuwen Hui sneered and looked mocking. No need to invite him!
As soon as she finished speaking, the elegant and graceful empress dowager walked out. She glanced at the maid, and the maid hurriedly bowed and left.
The Empress Dowager pretended to be calm, but her voice trembled: Are you all here? Are you here to listen to Emperor Wen’s last order?
Yuwen Hui coldly: No, we are here to "announce" Emperor Xiaomin's last order. The empress dowager said in panic and confused: What did you say? Why don't I know the last order of my own son?
Yuwen Shen said sternly: Emperor Xiaomin has his last words, don’t the empress dowager want to hear it? The empress dowager’s face changed slightly. Although she felt that the situation was not good, she did not expect that they would come to "force the palace" so soon, regardless of whether their brothers were still cold.
The Empress Dowager took a deep breath, stabilized her emotions, her eyes were like lightning, and she swept around without realizing her youngest son Yuwen Yong, she knew that something was wrong.
The Empress Dowager asked with some concern: Where is Yuwen Yong? Why is my son not here? Yuwen Hui: What we are going to talk about now is not suitable for young brothers to be present.
When the empress dowager heard this, she looked pale and felt dizzy. She gritted her teeth, plucked up the courage, and tried to calm herself down. She looked at these "sons" who were probably older than her, and said lightly: Say it! What's the matter?
