Chapter 737 Marriage and Murder
Imperial Palace, Yongyan Palace.
In the study room, Nangong Yang, who was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, was sitting at the table, flipping through the letters sent from the border.
Li Gui bowed his head and stood aside to serve.
In the room, there was silence, only the slight sound of Zhanxin.
Not long after, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, reporting respectfully: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is late."
Nan Gongyang heard the words, immediately put away the letter, stood up, went out to greet her personally, and at the same time said: "Go to Yaohua Palace, and invite the eldest princess, and say that I have something to discuss with her."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The sound of footsteps outside the door hastily left.
Soon, footsteps came in from outside.
Li Gui bowed and opened the door.
Nangong Yang stood at the door, looked out the door with a smile on his face, saw the Empress Dowager coming in, quickly went up to help her, and said: "Mother, it's freezing cold, just send someone over to give instructions if there is something to do, or let the child go That's it, why bother to come here in person. If you get sick from the cold, the child will feel very guilty."
The Empress Dowager followed him into the room, with a complex expression on her face, and said: "The date has been chosen. The sixth day of the first lunar month, three days later, will be an auspicious day. The Ministry of Rites and other departments are already making preparations. For other things, you also Don't worry about it."
Nangong Yang helped her to sit down on the soft bed with a smile all over her face, and said, "Is the time so rushed? I'm afraid Miss Huang is not ready yet?"
The queen mother gave him a complicated look, and said: "It will be resolved sooner, everyone can breathe a sigh of relief. As for Huoyue, I haven't informed her yet, and I will go there later."
Nangong Yang smiled and said: "The queen mother doesn't need to make another trip, the boy has already been invited. It just so happens that the boy has something and wants to tell sister Huang."
The Queen Mother frowned slightly and said, "What's the matter?"
Nan Gongyang squatted down beside her, helped her pinch her legs, and said with a smile, "You don't have to worry about a little thing."
The queen mother stared at him for a while, and said: "Your Majesty, I heard that you arrested the former commander of Jin Yiwei, and you plan to behead him outside the Meridian Gate three days later?"
Nan Gongyang sighed, and said: "I don't want it either, but he has failed my trust, so I must set an example to others. Otherwise, those servants will bully me when I am young, and will not be faithful in my work."
The queen mother frowned and said, "How could it be such a coincidence that it happened to be the day of your imperial sister's marriage? Can't it be postponed for a few days?"
Nangong Yang lowered his head, helped her pinch her legs seriously, and said for a moment in silence, "Mother, my boy, tell me the truth, I don't want to kill him either. It's just that the Qin family is too much, and my boy treats them very well." She loves her very much and trusts her so much, but what happened? You saw what happened in the hall that day, the son-in-law of the Qin family slapped me in the face in front of the foreign guests!"
The queen mother looked at him and said, "They ran away?"
Nangong Yang smiled wryly, and said: "I didn't even say to punish him, so he took the whole family and ran away. If he didn't run away, I would just reprimand him at most, and I would never really punish him. I always cherish talents How could it be possible to go to war for such a trivial matter. When he ran away, people thought I was narrow-minded and couldn't tolerate him, and the Qin family was a meritorious family, and they resigned on their own initiative. The whole family left like this, and other meritorious families What would you think? You would think I forced you, hey..."
The Queen Mother frowned and said, "So what do you want to do?"
Before Nangong Yang answered, the eunuch's voice suddenly came from outside: "Your Majesty, the eldest princess is here."
Nan Gongyang got up immediately, and said, "Quickly invite Huang Jie to come in."
After finishing speaking, he went to open the door and greeted him with a smile on his face.
Nangong Huoyue walked in from the door in a fiery red dress, and when she was about to talk to him, she saw that the Queen Mother was also in the study, so she ignored him and went in to say hello.
The Empress Dowager got up, came to her, and took her hand kindly and said: "Huoyue, the date has been fixed, the sixth day of the first lunar month, what do you think?"
Nangong Huoyue frowned slightly when she heard the words, but said nothing.
The queen mother stroked her little hand, and said in a gentle voice: "If you feel that the time is too rushed, mother will discuss it with them later and let them find another day later. Anyway, this matter is up to you. When you want to get married, Just one day."
Nangong Huoyue looked at her, and said indifferently: "How about getting married again in two years?"
As soon as the words came out, the smile on the Empress Dowager's face froze immediately, and said: "Huo Yue, since the marriage has already been settled, and it is the person you choose, you should do it earlier."
Nangong Huoyue looked at her indifferently, and said: "What's the point of the empress asking for my opinion? You can decide when to get married."
The Queen Mother fell silent.
Nangong Yang came over and said with a smile: "Sister Huang, the date was discussed by the Wang uncles and the Qin Tianjian. It is a very auspicious day. The emperor will get married earlier, and the mother and queen will have one less day to worry. Feel safe and relieved.”
Nangong Huoyue did not speak again.
The room was quiet for a while.
Nangong Yang sighed, and said: "Sister Huang, I didn't ask you to come here today just to tell you about this matter. There is one more thing that may require the help of Sister Huang."
Nangong Huoyue looked at him calmly and did not ask any questions.
Nangong Yang said bitterly: "Sister Huang, you should also know that Qin Lang, the former commander of Jinyiwei, was arrested by me. I have always trusted him and doted on him very much. At the beginning, I directly proposed him from the academy and let him Being the commander of Jinyiwei gave him a lot of power. But he failed my trust. He not only deceived me, but also killed the people in Zijin Temple, directly betraying me... Hey, I feel really sad in my heart .”
Nangong Huoyue said indifferently: "What do you want me to do for you? Kill him with your own hands?"
Nangong Yang smiled wryly and said: "Sister Huang was joking, even if she really wanted to kill him, how could she let her do it? What's more, it was the day when Sister Huang got married, no matter how much I hated him, it was impossible for Sister Huang to make him dirty." hand."
After a pause, he sighed again, and said earnestly: "Sister Huang, I don't really want to kill him. I just want Luo Qing and the Qin family to come back, serve the country well, share my worries, and at the same time dispel Other people's doubts. Since their family left that day, I have heard a lot of gossip, saying that I can't tolerate people, that I can kill donkeys, and that I am vicious and narrow-minded."
"Hey... I am really wronged. I have never planned to do anything to them. Instead, I have always wanted to reuse the Qin family. Needless to say, Qin Lang, I dote on him very much. Commander Jin Yiwei I have given it to him, I plan to let him hone it for a few years, and let him serve in the army in the future. And Luo Qing, he is so talented, both I and the Queen Mother are aware of it, I allow him to enter the palace at will, study with me, etc. During the Chunwei period, with his talent, he will definitely be able to be admitted to Jinshi, and I plan to favor him in the palace examination and let him be the number one scholar..."
"Who knew, they would treat me like this..."
"I sent people to look for them for a long time, but I couldn't find them. Instead, many of my subordinates died... But I still don't blame them, I only hope that they can come back safely..."
Speaking of this, he paused, and said sincerely: "Sister Huang, you have a good relationship with the Qin family, and you are also a teacher and friend with Luo Qing. Do you know where they are now?"
Without waiting for Nangong Huoyue to answer, he said again: "It doesn't matter if you don't know, Huang Jie can help me find it, and by the way, help me spread the news, tell Luo Qing, let him come back. As long as he is willing to come back, I will be happy with the previous one." Don't blame the past. As for his elder brother Qin Lang, I will let him go."
Nangong Huoyue was silent for a while, and said with a cold face: "I don't know where they are either."
Nangong Yang nodded, and said: "It's okay, I just need someone to help me spread the news. Three days later, it will be the day when Huang Jie gets married. I hope Luo Qing can come back and join me in attending Huang Jie's wedding. Queen's blessing."
Nangong Huoyue looked at him and said, "What if he doesn't come back?"
Nan Gongyang sighed, and said: "Then I have no choice. Qin Lang betrayed me, so I can only kill him reluctantly, as a warning to others."
Nangong Huoyue said: "Does it have to be that day?"
Nan Gongyang smiled wryly and said: "My decree has already been made, and there is no way to change it. But sister Huang, don't worry, I will have someone clean it up when the time comes, and it won't affect her marriage."
Nangong Huoyue narrowed her eyes, turned and left without speaking.
The queen mother stood aside, silent.
After the door was closed and the sound of footsteps outside gradually faded away, the Queen Mother said with a complicated expression: "Your Majesty, why is this so? She has already compromised, she has already given in, let her get married, okay?"
Nangong Yang said with a faint smile on his face, "Queen Mother, Miss Huang is strong-willed, so she won't care about such small things."
The queen mother frowned and said: "Luo Qing is the person she values the most. What you do is to make her life difficult when she gets married. She is your royal sister, and she has worked hard to help you for so many years. Occasionally, I have a dispute with you, and it is also for the sake of the country. That day is a big event in her life, and it may only be like this once in a lifetime, so you can't..."
"Mother Queen."
Nangong Yang interrupted her, still with a gentle smile on his face, said: "Now that I have grown up, I can tell right from wrong. There are some things that I want to decide on my own. As for this matter, I have already decided , Empress Dowager doesn’t need to say any more. It’s getting late, it’s cold outside, Empress Mother should go back and rest quickly.”
The queen mother took a look at his face, said nothing more, sighed, turned and left.
Elder Sun Wan'er appeared at the door, supported her, and went out.
After the sound of footsteps outside disappeared, a murmur of gritted teeth suddenly came from the study: "I just want to disgust her! I just want to make life worse for those who betray me!"
Nangong Huoyue returned to the palace, stood in front of the study window for a long time, then returned to the bed, sat down cross-legged, fascinated.
at the same time.
In a certain house by the Yunwu River, there was also a spirit flying up to the roof.
