Your Majesty will suffer

In late spring, the peonies outside the fence are proud.

At dusk, sit in the courtyard.It didn't take long, but I became tired, knowing that I would toss and turn again when I lay down, so I ordered someone to fetch wine: it's the best policy to get drunk.It's just that before the wine arrived, Zhang Lingqi had already rushed over.This guy has always been chattering, and thinking about it, he will hurt others again.

Sure enough, to make him speak out was to dissuade him from drinking.In fact, it is no wonder that recently, he drank almost every day to relieve his sorrows, often resulting in hangovers, not thinking about eating and drinking the next day, and feeling depressed.If things go on like this, how is it?

He asked him to try his best to persuade him, but unfortunately it didn't work, so he had to say: "Tomorrow there will be a flower viewing and fishing party in the palace. If my husband is hungover, how can I get there?"

Nangong Ji asked suspiciously: "Admiring flowers and fishing? When will you get the summons?"

It made him sigh: "Your Majesty has forgotten the decree obtained five days ago?"

Nangong Ji stroked his forehead for a moment, finally remembered, but said coldly: "I don't want to go, you can go back with me tomorrow, just call me sick!"

Although it was difficult for him, but seeing that he had made up his mind, and thinking about it these days, he was really decadent, and it would be inappropriate to go, so he didn't persuade him any more, but murmured: "There is one more thing, if you want to come here, you should have something to do with Lang Jun." I know. Brother and sister Yuwen will be punished in three days, what are your plans, Mr. Lang?"

After all, they used to have the name of husband and wife, so if they wanted to come to Dali Temple, they would not be in vain, and seeing each other before execution was justified.

I was speechless for a long time.The wind blows, and the flowers and branches in front of the court rustle.

Nangongji got up, walked down the steps slowly, wandering aimlessly.

The night is quiet, the moonlight is like washing.

After a while, or feeling tired, he fell down and sat on the steps, raised his head to look at the moon, and groaned in a dazed way: "There is no solid rock in goodness, what's the use of regaining a false name?"

Make him sigh silently.

After a moment of silence, the man suddenly looked back: "Tomorrow, I will still enter the palace!"

Entering the palace is not for fishing and viewing flowers, but for saving Rou Su!

The weather is clear and bright, leaning on the fence but looking out, under the willows by the lake, there are clusters of flowers, and the distance is faint.The clear water is like a mirror, without any ripples.

The green apricot in his hand drew a light arc in the air, and fell into the lake, causing a circle of water ripples.

"I said last time that the judgment of Dali Temple has been handed down, and there is absolutely no room for it to be withdrawn. From today onwards, I don't want to hear you mention this matter again!" Nothing has changed.

"Your Majesty, you really don't want me to go back to Shu, do you?" The man asked inexplicably, but it seemed to have deep meaning.

Yue Ling's heart was shocked, he frowned and turned around, but did not answer.

As he recognized it, Nan Gongji sighed silently, full of loneliness in his heart.

"Your Majesty wants to make father easy to save, it's just a decree, why bother to go to such pains?" The truth is easy to expose, but the speaker doesn't seem to have the intention of asking for guilt!Let's say that the current expression is the same as before, the clouds are calm and the wind is light, it seems that what he said has nothing to do with him.

Yue Ling's complexion suddenly changed, although he also knew that the truth would not be concealed for a long time, but in the end it was a fluke, but who would have expected him to be so quick. . .

Hearing that person's tone at the moment, although he didn't intend to question him, Yue Ling didn't dare to turn around, for fear of meeting those eyes with unknown meaning.

Speaking of it, that person might not believe it, but since that day, he has already regretted it, and the matter of Yi Chu has long been over!

After a moment of silence, it was the same person who spoke first: "I have little talent and intellect, and I can't bear the great responsibility, so please resign from the position of son, and let me be more worthy than my younger brother!"

Yue Ling was startled, but when he turned around, he saw that he had prostrated himself on the ground!He said anxiously: "That matter is over, and I have promised you, but if you like it, I will protect your reserve! Why do you have to do this?"

It's a pity that the man was not moved, and said: "I have made up my mind, and I hope your Majesty will make it happen. This should be the result of all the opinions! The case of tribute wine was caused by the unknown person and the wrong trust in the traitor. It brings disaster, and since Yuwen is the first wife of the minister, I dare not stay out of it, no matter whether I am dismissed from the official position, or sent to prison and exiled, I will accept her willingly, but I hope to save her life!"

After all this, it is still for the sake of saving the Yuwen family!Knowing this, Yue Ling was annoyed at himself, but he was helpless because of the wrong things in the past, and at the moment he was not willing to allow him, but he was uneasy if he didn't allow it.There was no way to decide.

It's just that the time to appreciate the flowers has come, and the ministers have already gone to the meeting, so this matter has to be suspended.

In the early morning of the next day, I heard that the man came to see him again, and according to Huangmen's report, he didn't go back to the mansion last night, but lingered in front of the palace gate all night, it seems that he will never give up until he achieves his goal!

Yue Lingwen sighed bewilderedly: Forget it, who taught himself to owe him in the past and feel uneasy?If you want to reconcile with him now, the only way is to fulfill his strategy.

Yuwen Rousu was finally spared the death penalty, but she was still waiting for the crime. Although Nangongji was worried about this, her life was saved after all, so she had to postpone the rest of the matter.But right now, Yuwen Shijie is about to be sentenced. After much deliberation, he decided to see him for the last time: Although the previous case has been clarified, there are still some things that he wants to explain in person.

It has been a long time since he was in prison, and he knew that the end was coming, but Shijie looked at it calmly, thinking that it was this day, he had foreseen it a long time ago.

Through the iron window, Nangongji personally poured a glass of wine with him, watched him drink it up, and then said: "Drinking at the mansion that night, I still regret that it has been so many years, I don't want you to end up in the end! But today, I will practice with you again." Yes, but it will be farewell, since the world is unpredictable!"

Shijie smiled sadly: "It's all God's will! What can I do?"

Nan Gongji shook his head: "Wrong, this is a man-made disaster, what has it to do with God's will?"

Shijie was startled, and then smiled wryly: "Your Highness is right!" Then he took a few steps back, straightened his clothes, and bowed respectfully: "Shijie has wronged His Highness, there is no way to make up for it in this life. I beg Your Highness to forgive me!"

Nangong Ji turned around and stood sideways to hide the compassion in his eyes.After a long time, he slowly said: "If I knew today, why bother? You don't care about our old friendship for many years, but you should also think about Rou Su. She is innocent, but now she has to be burdened by you."

Shijie's face was full of bitterness: "Well, I am sorry for my little sister, but... who taught her, is it for the Yuwen family?"

Nangong Ji was furious: "She is from Yuwen's family, so she deserves to suffer this? You can't say sorry to her now, but when you worked hard to arrange the layout, did you think that she would suffer from it? Could it be that between you and you? In my father's eyes, she is just a chess piece that your Yuwen family needs to gain power and seek rebellion.

Shijie closed his eyes and let out a long sigh, and said quietly: "I use her as a pawn, but what do the king and His Highness think of her? Isn't it a pawn to appease my Yuwen clan?"

Nangong Ji was startled immediately, but was dumbfounded.

"Shijie ended up like this, and it was his own fault. Your Highness doesn't have to bear it, but you know that since ancient times, success and defeat have always been love! Although Shijie died, he died without complaint." After saying this, he prostrated himself on the ground and bowed.

Nangong Ji closed his eyes and sighed for a long time.However, since he came here, he was confused and wanted to ask for clarification, so he said, "You must have been responsible for the plot to assassinate Privy Councilor Xia last time?"

Shijie bowed his head and did not answer, Nangongji recognized him, but the doubts in his heart deepened, and he said: "The assassination failed, but the court has already suspected me, why did you take such painstaking efforts to poison me again? Let's talk about tribute. In the case of wine, since you intend to frame him, why do you want to bear the blame alone in the end? If you accuse me of being the mastermind, you will not be able to find out if you want to come to Dali Temple. Wouldn’t it be easier to achieve your goal?”

Shijie pondered for a long time, but finally did not answer his question. He only said: "Shijie has committed a lot of crimes, but his highness sent him off at the time of his execution. It is no regret! Since your highness has already said what he should have said, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, so please come back. stop!"

Now that the matter is up to now, it is superfluous to talk about the truth for a dying person!

Nangongji saw that he had made up his mind, so he didn't want to push each other any more. Thinking about it, it was like what he said, in this situation, no amount of confrontation would only add to the sadness.It's just that he can't bear it, but at this moment, if there is anything that can comfort him, it is Rousu.So he said: "Rousu is now free from death penalty, I will do my best to keep her safe, you can rest assured!" After saying that, she turned around and strode away.

Behind him, Shijie's voice followed closely: "Thank you, Your Highness! Shijie deserves to die, but my younger sister is innocent, please Your Highness protect her!" If he is about to die, his words are good!

Nangong Ji's heart trembled, and for a while, the old scene reappeared in front of his eyes, thinking of the closeness back then, he couldn't help but burst into tears.Little did he know that at this moment, in the prison behind him, the person who was in a desperate situation was still sighing bitterly: the one who started it, but he also had difficulties.

High position and weight, deter the lord!The king of Shu was afraid of his Yuwen and Murong clans, and it has been gone for a day or two.Father has long been painstakingly planning to protect himself.Although the two uncles thought that they could not sit still and wait for death, they decided to lead troops into King Jingqin.However, my father thought that he should not meet with the Nangong clan unless it was a last resort, so the chances of winning are hard to say, and his family is all in the capital at the moment, if the news of the incident leaks out, there may be hundreds of people from his family before the army arrives. Then he became a prisoner of the king of Shu first!So at the moment, the strategy of separating Daliang and Nangong should be the first priority!If he succeeds, Daliang will definitely mobilize troops to question the crimes. At that time, his Yuwen clan will see the opportunity to act, turn against each other, or sit back and reap the benefits, all of them are the best!Even if it doesn't work, it must have aroused Daliang's suspicion of Nangong's family. At that time, internal and external difficulties, Nangong Dechong absolutely did not dare to easily touch his Yuwen's Ni Lin.On the contrary, you should give him grace to win people's hearts.

But the clinker went unsatisfactory: the two cases of taking in traitors and assassinating important ministers, although they aroused Daliang's suspicion, were far from the original intention.His father was naturally annoyed at the loss of this arm, and now the King of Shu couldn't tolerate him more and more!So he decided to preemptively strike, determined to make Daliang lose his trust in the Nangong family, and send troops to the west.

Poisoning tributes was originally a good strategy, but it was a pity that the plan was poor, the action was hasty, leaving flaws, and it was eventually revealed.Indeed, he can insist to the death that he was instructed by Nangong Ji!It's just that this statement is not without loopholes, and it may not be able to win the trust of Dali Temple if it is made out of thin air.Another reason is that he feels deep guilt towards Nan Gongji and his younger sister Rousu: it was a last resort to bring them into it, but now he slanders him again, how can he bear it?Besides, his Yuwen family is dying now, if one day unfortunately he follows the Murong family's footsteps, I hope Nangongji can think of his Yuwen Shijie's benevolence today, so that he can forgive his father and younger sister.

After a deep sigh, he knelt down and bowed to the west: Father, the last sliver of strength my child can do for the Yuwen clan has been exhausted. Take care!

The Gongjiu case finally subsides, but now Nangongji is concerned about Rousu!Whether it was because of the promise to Shijie at the beginning, or because of the guilt in my heart, I can't see her suffer any more!It's just that today, it's really unwilling to teach him to enter the palace again to beg that person, and Rou Su has already saved himself from death, so it seems like he's overreaching if he asks for a light pardon now. . .

After a lot of hard thinking, I finally came up with a strategy: to retreat as an advance, to confess my guilt, and to resign as the son of the king of Shu as a thank you!If that person still has self-knowledge, he will feel ashamed and regretful when he sees this, or he may forgive Rousu to appease his anger.

It's a pity that this time, Nan Gongji made some omissions: the memorandum was submitted for many days, but it was like a stone sinking into the ocean, and there was no reply for a long time.

Half a month later, Yu Wenrou Sujiao became a slave!

Disappointed, even though he was reluctant in every possible way, Nan Gongji had no choice but to enter the palace again to intercede.

This time, Yue Ling flew into a rage!It should be noted that his memorials are not enough, and there is already a lot of discussion in the court, wanting to make the king of Shu change his heir!In order to suppress public opinion, Yue Ling has already attracted many slanders.But now that the turmoil has just subsided, he has made troubles of his own accord. Fortunately, the memorial was suppressed by Lu Zi, and the outside world didn't know about it.

Although Yue Lingyu was annoyed by his actions, he couldn't bear to criticize him eccentrically, so he could only pretend to be deaf and dumb, and let it go without answering.Unexpectedly, within a few days of the incident, he actually entered the palace again, bringing up the old matter again, but begged to be dismissed from office, in exchange for Yuwen's freedom!At this point, Yue Ling finally got a glimpse of his mind, and when he was angry, he thought about his maintenance and pity for the Yuwen family, and felt deeply chilled.

Immediately waved his hand, and said with a hostile tone: "It's not impossible to pardon Yuwen, but you have to do my job!"

Nangongji agreed without any hesitation.

Yue Ling said: "Since you have no intention of being the king of Shu, it's fine, then from now on, you will stay in Bianliang forever, without my permission, you are not allowed to go out of Beijing for half a step, and you are not allowed to renew your strings or accept concubines again! As for Yuwen Shi, you will be able to return to your freedom, and the status of husband and wife with you will not be continued, so you should be placed elsewhere immediately!" This voice is beyond dispute.

Nangongji knew that there was no way out, so he had no choice but to agree.

When I returned to the mansion that night, Rou Suguo had already been released. She only described herself as haggard and weak, and she had caused Nangong Ji a lot of compassion, but she had no choice but to accept what happened to that person. She could not go back on her word, so she could only comfort him with kind words. Fan, let's settle in another house first.

Half a month later, when Rousu's health improved, he sent her back to Chengdu in the name of recuperating her illness.
