Chapter 44: On the Present World

"If Yuwen Jue takes the risk, you are the emperor's first confidant, and you will be the one who is responsible for the brunt of it. So, the future is still long, so I'd better keep the congratulations I'll say to you in the future!"

"That's what I said?"

"Although there are differences in the original words, you can't be wrong with care."

"This...this is right, it's all based on facts."

"So, a few days later, Yuwen Jue was hanged to death by the emperor as a palace. Soon, the five emperor brothers were also driven out of the imperial capital and went to the country separately."

"This... has something to do with my words? I didn't say a word to the emperor, I just said casually to Yuwen Hu. At that time, except for Yuwen Hu, it was you who were present. Could it be that you ran to the emperor..."

"Barring! Don't fool me! Yuwen Jue is the highest among the eight emperor brothers now. They are enough to usurp power and seize the throne in terms of talent, prestige, and power. Therefore, he has long been a heart-wrenching problem for the emperor and Yuwen Hu! Yuwen Hu lost his official position back then, which was actually the role of Yuwen Jue. Your words will not only shock Yuwen Hu, but the emperor will also be shocked when he hears it!"

"I didn't say to the emperor."

"But Yuwen Hu will definitely say it to the emperor after hearing this. He is eager for quick success and instant benefits, so he will naturally not say it is what you said. He will definitely say to the emperor: I have been restless recently, and I have always been worried about the matter of Chengtuan..."

"Haha! You know Yuwen Hu very clearly..."

"But I don't know much about your husband; but the King of Qi is also a heart-wrenching problem with you. You want to kill Yuwen Jue, because, five years ago, he told Emperor Wen that Yang Zhong had a very good appearance; I always see him, I will lose myself without realizing it. I am afraid that he will not be inferior to others, so please get rid of it early!"

After hearing this, Yang Zhong was silent for a long time, and finally murmured: "There are not only Yu Wen Jue, but also Yu Jin and Yuan Xin...there are so many!"

"What are the private guesses about Yuwen Jue's death?" Yang Zhong's mood suddenly became serious, "You can't guess it on my head, right?"

"You can rest assured. Everyone thinks that the murder of King Qi is related to the incident of the prince's conquest of Tuyuhun three years ago..."

"Oh..." Yang Zhong was relieved. The so-called "thing" of the conquest of Tuyuhun was: In order to give the prince more experience, Emperor Wen of Zhou led his army to conquer Tuyu deep. The seventeen-year-old prince was unknown and often criticized, so how could he take this important task?

Therefore, Emperor Wen sent Kaifu Yitong General Yu Jin and the Eastern Palace official Zheng Yuanxin to follow the action. All the attacks were naturally appointed Yu Jin and Yuanxin. The prince was idle and had no trouble, and he could not help but have trouble. Not only did he often drink and cause trouble with Gong Yin Yuwen Hu, but he also went out many times to capture Tuyuhun's girl and put it in the tent of the general.

When Yu Jin and Yuan Xin returned, they all reported to Emperor Wen. Emperor Wen was furious and immediately beat the prince and Yu Wen Hu to the point of being fragile. At that time, King Yuwen Jue of Qi was beside him, not only advocated killing Yu Wen Hu, but also suggested that the winery would be banned from the East Palace from then on.

The killing of Yuwen Hu was not done, but was dismissed; all the followers and companions around Yuwen Yu were all moved to the 50th National Congress and expelled from the palace. Unfortunately, Yang Jian, who was twelve years old at the time, was one of the companions around the prince. Because of this, Yang Zhong was expelled from the house and could only live in the wet nurse's house.

But the prohibition of alcohol was implemented on the same day. The prince had already become addicted to drinking. He lost his soul if he didn't drink for one day. He was simply deadly without drinking for three days. However, he endured it for two years and couldn't drink it. He gritted his teeth with hatred.

Seeing that Yang Zhong was in a good mood, Lu Kutao said boldly: "Master, Jian'er was just taken home two years ago. The last emperor's words became the emperor's companion, and he was implicated for no reason and suffered so many crimes..."

Yang Zhong's face suddenly became very bad: "You don't know what kind of bastard the emperor is, the day his father Emperor Wen returned to heaven, he actually said: It should have been damn long ago! He hated his father so much, let alone the hatred of Yuwen Jue, Yuan Xin, Yu Jin and others. He has always been resentful of the rumors that Jian'er has the appearance of the emperor among the people...

Lu Kutao was also a little scared, especially when the emperor heard that several of the above people repeatedly told his father that the prince was not the lord of the country, he not only hated him, but also suspected that these people were ill-intentioned and wanted to elect Yuwen Jue as his father's heir.

After the death of King Yuwen Zhi of Wei, Yuwen Jue was the eldest brother of his father. He was meritorious, powerful and powerful. Don’t he want to be the emperor? So, the first person he had to deal with after the prince ascended the throne and became emperor was this uncle, King Yuwen Jue of Qi.

Therefore, King Qi was killed because of "that incident". Yang Zhong's words to Yuwen Hu were just cleverly activated the murderous intent of Yuwen Hu and the current emperor. This incident left no trace, which was really his masterpiece. At this moment, when he thought of these past events again, he couldn't help but feel secretly proud.

Dugu Xin looked at Gala who was lying on the bed, pouting, sleeping sweetly, and looked so cute. Cui came in with a bowl of porridge: "Master!" Dugu Xin held his index finger in front of his mouth: "Shh! Sigh, I fell asleep!"

Cui put down the bowl and sat next to Gala: "Hey, so many years have passed in a flash, and it's still the same as when I was a child! I'm drooling when I sleep!" Dugu Xin helped Gala tuck the corner of the quilt, got up and went to the restaurant with Cui to have supper.

After the two left, Gala slowly opened her eyes. She had already woken up. This day was too hard, with the scorching sun and wind and rain. Gala stood up and gently pushed open the small window facing the courtyard on the second floor. The courtyard and the corridor seemed particularly lonely, and the bright moon in the distance had already risen.

When Li Bing handed her the bowl of water, the fate between Gala and Li Bing seemed to have been destined. However, she was not the real Gala, and at this moment she could not understand why she had such a strange relationship with Li Bing!

Although Dugu Xin was the most powerful minister, there were only three dishes on the table: a plate of meat sauce, a plate of salted radish, and a bowl of bean-tooth soup. This was not only because the people were poor and wealthy at that time, but also because Dugu Xin's frugality was amazing.

During the meal, Cui suddenly smiled mysteriously and said, "Not long ago, your two treasured daughters-in-law started a big quarrel, but did you hear anything?" Dugu Xin glared at his wife strangely. He never cared about these mother-in-law and mothers. His wife didn't know why she asked this? Cui didn't care about this, but she didn't say anything anymore. After the meal, the couple returned to the study room upstairs.

Gala heard the footsteps of Dugu Xin and Cui returning to the room. Dugu Xin's study and Gala's room were just opposite the door. The sound insulation effect of the wooden door and paper window was extremely poor. Gala stood at his door and listened to the conversation between the two people in the door.

The wife mentioned the quarrel between the two daughters-in-law again.

Dugu Xin finally said impatiently: "I don't have time to deal with my own affairs!"

"I'm afraid you won't take it lightly after you know why they quarrel!"

Dugu Xin stared at his wife in a daze, waiting for her next sentence; but Cui did not say anything anymore, so she simply walked through the small door and went to the dormitory.

"Hey, why don't you say it?"

"I don't know if I want to hear it." She still walked into the dormitory.

Dugu Xin rushed forward and took his wife back; Cui was acting coquettish and kicked and shouted in a fit of anger. The maid didn't know what happened, so she quickly pushed the door in, was stunned, and quickly covered her mouth so as not to laugh out loud. At the same time, she left the door.

Cui was happy and finally said, "One said, Yuwen Jue is a famous general today, and has never had any unfaithful intentions. He is loyal to this dynasty, so why do you see killing? I'm afraid it's not the emperor's original intention? Another said, it's not the emperor's original intention, is it the intention of others?"

Dugu Luo's wife said that this is hard to say. Today, there are people who want to be emperors everywhere. If I had three or five Shangzhu Kingdoms in each family, the general manager, maybe I would be confused and want to become emperor!

Dugu Shan's wife remained silent, but when she calculated her fingers, she obviously implied her mother's Hou Mo Chen family. She immediately said annoyed: Please explain it clearly to the princess, don't criticize me! One said, I've already made it clear! In this way, the two of them got into trouble.

After listening to his wife's retelling, Dugu Xin was startled first, but after listening, it turned out that the princess suspected that the Hou Mo Chen family had framed Yu Wen Jue. A stone in her heart fell to the ground. Not only did she whisper softly, but she was also glad that the Hou Mo Chen family diverted the world's attention for him. This was really wonderful.

The Houmo Chen family is truly the most prominent family in the world after the decline of the Eight Pillars Kingdom. It is almost natural to be suspected. Why did I remember now, but I didn’t expect to use this family to divert the public’s attention before? He was very grateful that his wife’s retelling brought him good news, and couldn’t help but kiss her and hugged her tighter.

But in a second thought, he suddenly shouted: "Not good!" As soon as his hands were loose, Cui almost rolled down from his arms.

Dugu Xin wandered upstairs and said worriedly: Since the princess saw that someone was involved in frameing Yuwen Jue, naturally others would also have this suspicion. The Hou Mo Chen family tree attracted a lot of attention, and of course the goal was the biggest, but Hou Mo Chen himself would not doubt his family, right?

I'm afraid they will soon doubt us; and the most worrying thing is Yu Jin, Yuan Xin, Yu Wen and other people, who have close past with Hou Mo Chen, naturally will not doubt the Hou Mo Chen family. They have already suspicious of me, and this time they will doubt me!

He returned to the bed, his expression getting more and more serious. He kept saying: "No! No..."

The wife sitting next to him disagreed: "No matter how suspicious you are, anyway, you have no evidence of murdering Yuwen Jue. Even if you sue the emperor, the emperor will prove that you did not interfere in the matter, let alone they dare not sue the emperor, and openly complained to Yuwen Jue."

Dugu Xin still shook his head and said, "You don't know the depth..."

"How deep is it?" she retorted.

"You said, who is the third family except for the Yuwen royal family and the Houmo Chen family are the most prominent?"

"Wei Xiaokuan's Wei family? Otherwise, it would be Helan Xiang's He family. He has seven sons and five generals... It's not impossible to be Li Hu and Li Bi's two families, but these two families have obviously declined since Li Hu and Li Bi!" - Dugu family told the four families in a row, and Dugu Xin always shook his head.
