Zhu Guogong looked at his eldest son kneeling on the ground, and felt a burst of sadness in his heart. He said in a deep voice: "Your mother is sad. But she has always supported the big things and decisions I have made over the years. Although she doesn't think so now."
She made a serious mistake. But what was her starting point? Have you ever thought about it?"
Zhu Houde said: "The starting point? Isn't it because His Royal Highness Prince An didn't treat her as the prince, so she angered the princess? Just teach her a lesson. There is no need to sever the relationship with her sister just to please the princess."
Zhu Guogong sneered. "I am confused. I have been confused for so many years. You are indispensable. None of you can criticize the current situation. After analyzing the situation, you have little future, so you all look up to Di Wei to bring glory to the Duke's palace in the future.
But Di Weiming and Zhu Huai are the current princes. They want to be rebellious ministers and traitors, you know? We will not sever ties today. In the future, when their affairs become more and more serious, they will implicate our government.
If the wealthy family surnamed Zhu is implicated, if it is not cut off, will you be willing to give her the head of your eldest family in the future to protect this brother-sister relationship?"
Zhu Houde was so shocked that he fell to the ground, "This...isn't this serious?"
But isn’t that the case? How arrogant are they in provoking the Crown Princess now? So will they be willing to let the Crown Prince ascend the throne and become the emperor?
I will definitely not be willing to do so.
What should we do if we are not willing to accept it? There is only one way, and that is rebellion.
The more Zhu Houde thought about it, the more frightened he became. He felt that what his father said was reasonable, so he immediately got up and left to find the clan leader.
The news that Duke Zhu Guo had severed his relationship with Di Weiming's wife, Zhu Huai, could not be concealed. The Zhu family had no intention of hiding it, and even publicized it in a big way.
Duke Zhu Guo personally went to the Prince of Chu's Mansion and asked Yuan Qingling to come and treat the Duke's wife.
The next morning, Duke Zhu went to court and formally expressed his agreement to the prince's proposal to form an alliance with Zhou Dynasty.
After the matter was settled, Yu Wenhao and General Jingting went out to celebrate. They originally said they were going back to China, but Yuan Qingling invited them to attend the wedding of Gu Si and Yuan Qingping before leaving.
The wedding was very lively, the Gu family attached great importance to their daughter-in-law, and the bonus was so great that the Yuan family was very satisfied.
Jinghou was also released. Yuan Qingling told him that he would leave the capital after Yuan Qingping's marriage was over.
After waiting quietly in jail, I became afraid and felt that no amount of wealth was as important as life and freedom.
As for the case where Fu Yin caught the wrong Asi, Mrs. Yuan went directly to the Ministry of Personnel and Criminal Affairs to file a complaint, and Fu Cheng was dismissed from his post and investigated.
Emperor Ming Yuan issued an order for Yu Wenhao to return to Jingzhao Mansion to serve. He took up the post of Jingzhao Mansion Yin for the third time.
After Yuan Qingping's wedding, the Dazhou couple invited the Beitang couple to dinner, saying they wanted to thank them for their hospitality.
When Yu Wenhao heard that they were leaving, he felt completely wrong. He kept saying that Zhu Guogong was too erratic and had no independent opinions, so he should have persisted for a few more days.
But as the saying goes, all banquets in the world must come to an end. They are people of the Great Zhou Dynasty and officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty. They must return to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Since Yu Wenhao and Jing Ting were going to a restaurant outside, Yuan Qingling and Jin Ning set out from the house.
After entering, Yuan Qingling thought of asking her grandma to take the medicine again, so she came out and said a few words to Man'er, asking her to run back to the house.
When she turned around, someone ran over and knocked her to the ground.
Her injuries were not fully healed, and the pain caused by the knock made her unable to stand up immediately.
Someone reached out and gave her a hand. She raised her head and was about to say thank you, but she saw that the person looked very familiar. The memory of her appearance, which was like a stunning beauty, was really deep. She remembered that she had seen her at a state banquet. At that time, Lao Wu told her,
That is Mr. Hongye from Xianbei.
"Madam, are you okay?" Mr. Hongye obviously didn't recognize her. After helping her up, he immediately took a step back and observed the etiquette. His red clothes were blown up by the wind, making his face as bright as a blazing flame.
Yuan Qingling stretched out her hand to cover her abdomen and said, "It turns out to be Master Hongye. Thank you very much. I'm fine."
Young Master Hongye frowned, "Do you know me, Madam?"
"I met him once, but the young master probably didn't pay attention to me." Yuan Qingling smiled and said calmly.
"Oh? Then I wonder where I have seen it before?" Mr. Hongye looked suspicious, raised the corners of his eyes slightly, and revealed a gentle smile on his lips, which was indescribably charming.
"In the palace, during the prince's ceremony."
Mr. Hongye handed over his hand, "I wonder who you are?"
Yuan Qingling heard Jin Ning talk about Mr. Hongye, and he was from Xianbei. Now the Northern Tang Dynasty and the Great Zhou Dynasty were in alliance. It was not appropriate for her to talk too much to him at this juncture, so she did not answer his words and said with a smile:
"My friend is waiting for me inside, excuse me."
Mr. Hongye didn't bother, he just smiled and said goodbye.
After Yuan Qingling went in, she told Jin Ning that she met Mr. Hongye outside.
Jin Ning was very alert and said: "Princess, you are not allowed to interact with this person. If you see him in the future, try to avoid him. He is a very scheming person, and it is impossible for him not to know you. That night you were sitting
Anyone who is around the prince, as long as he sees the prince, he will definitely see you."
"I'm afraid you don't remember?" Yuan Qingling didn't think much.
Jin Ning said: "He has a very good memory and is very smart. As long as it is someone he has met, he will never forget it. Just now you said that someone bumped into you and he showed up. Then the person who bumped into you has
Maybe he arranged it just to get in touch with you."
After hearing what Jin Ning said, Yuan Qingling felt a little wary of Mr. Hongye, but thinking that they would probably never meet again in the future, she didn't care too much.
When Yu Wenhao and Jing Ting came over, Jin Ning mentioned this matter, and Yu Wenhao frowned, "He hasn't left yet? The celebration has been over for many days, and he is still here?"
"Everything Hongye does has a purpose. The prince should be careful about this person." Jin Ning said.
Yu Wenhao nodded, "Don't worry, I will ask people to keep an eye on him."
"The Qin general from the Great Zhou Dynasty hasn't left yet, has he? What do these two people want to do by staying in the Northern Tang Dynasty? Now that the bill has been passed, it should be said that they should leave early." Jing Ting said.
Yu Wenhao kept an eye out. General Qin and Master Hongye stayed in the Northern Tang Dynasty, and the people they were most likely to come into contact with were Lao Si and Di Weiming.
They really need to find someone to keep an eye on them and not cause them to cause any trouble.
There is also the matter of Grandma Xi's illness. If it is confirmed that it is related to the fourth child, then it must be dealt with carefully.
"Don't talk about this now. You have to leave tomorrow. Let us have fun tonight." Yu Wenhao said.
Jingting also had a face full of reluctance, "These days go by so fast, it seems like I just came, but I have to leave now."
"This is our farewell. I don't know when we will see each other again." Yu Wenhao also began to sigh.
Seeing the reluctance on their faces, Yuan Qingling and Jin Ning both laughed.
