Chapter 225 Argument
In the luxuriously decorated palace, the prince and the third prince knelt down together and bowed to the woman who was looking up to them. There was no ambiguity in their actions, and they did not dare to be disrespectful at all.
If Jia Lian were here, he would probably be shocked at the size of his city.
The person Gain was sitting on the couch in front of the two princes was the woman he had protected from horseback!
This woman has now changed into a gorgeous and bright palace dress. She looks a little less cold than before, but a little more graceful and indifferent to all living beings.
Faced with the two princes’ frightened confessions, she just glanced at them lightly.
Seeing this, Zhaoyang, who was beside her, knew that the Queen Mother was angry, so she immediately scolded the Prince: "Brother, you promised emphatically before that you have arranged everything properly. If you don't There would be no one who would bump into the Imperial Grandmother, so I begged the Imperial Grandmother to go with me.
Now that something like this happened, what do you say? And if it weren’t for the profound blessings of the Imperial Grandmother today, Fortunately, it's nothing serious, otherwise, how should we explain to our father and grandpa when we return?"
Princess Zhaoyang's words clearly revealed her fear.
Indeed, it is wrong to take the Queen Mother out of the palace. If something happens to the Queen Mother, even if they are princes, they will have to shed their skins!
Therefore, even if Princess Zhaoyang’s tone was accusatory, the two princes did not dare to feel dissatisfied. Instead, they both raised their heads and glanced at the woman above them, who were the direct relatives of all their princes and princesses in terms of etiquette. grandmother!
Although the imperial grandmother still looked young, they did not dare to despise her at all.
In front of this young imperial grandmother, even their father was respectful and did not dare to show any slightness.
"Please forgive me, Grandma Huang! My grandson has found out clearly that it was a disobedient person named Youxiao who deliberately tampered with the horse that Grandma specially selected for Grandma Huang and Zhaoyang.< br />
They added a huge amount of stimulant drugs to the fodder they fed. Once the horses ate such fodder, they would fall into a manic and violent state within half an hour. This is why the Royal Grandmother rode the horse That pure-blooded BMW lost control...
The grandson wanted to find out who was so bold as to murder the imperial grandmother, but he didn’t know that the horseman who poisoned him half an hour ago He has committed suicide by taking poison.
My grandson has asked everyone responsible for taking care of the horses to be detained. Please rest assured, the royal grandmother and the royal sister, I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter and find out what is behind it. The chief envoy!"
Although the prince seemed to be reporting and defending himself, the suspicious look he always cast on the third prince clearly showed who in his heart was this bold and rebellious person.
The Queen Mother and Zhaoyang naturally followed the Crown Prince’s gaze and looked at the Third Prince.
They all understood what the prince meant.
If something happens to the Queen Mother today, the Prince, as the host, will naturally not be able to escape responsibility.
Once the prince loses power, the only person who may benefit is the third prince, who is not much different in age from the prince but has a good reputation among the government and the public!
The third prince looked gloomy, and he said coldly: "What the prince said is that no matter who dares to murder the emperor's grandmother, he will be punished very much!
I hope the prince can be killed as soon as possible To find out, if the prince is busy with affairs and cannot find out the truth as soon as possible, it is better to hand over this important task to my younger brother.
My younger brother assured the prince that the matter will be found out within three days. , give an explanation to the imperial grandmother, and restore the prince's innocence!"
"You..."
The prince was very angry when he heard this.
What a third prince, how dare you hint in front of him that he is incompetent!
When he didn’t know that the rumors that “the prince is the eldest in rank, but his talent and moral character are inferior to the third prince” were created by him in collusion with those literati?
Bullshit virtues, bullshit talents, horse riding and archery, which one can compare with myself? You dare to talk about your talents.
Furthermore, what else could he say to prove his innocence?
The implication is that now he, the dignified prince, is a suspect in murdering the Queen Mother!
What a vicious and hateful person. Does he think that everyone in the world is so stupid that they can’t even understand this framed evil trick? !
How brave he was, in order to frame him, he even dared to scheme against the imperial grandmother...
The prince was shocked by the third prince's ruthlessness and unscrupulous tactics.
Seeing that the two of them were already tense in a few words, the Queen Mother waved her hand and said: "That's all, you two should get up."
"Thank you, Grandma Huang. …”
“I heard that the prince has ordered martial law?
It doesn’t have to be like this.
Today I am leaving the city with Zhao Yang , except for a few of you, no one knows.
Isn’t it confusing that you are spending so much time now? Remove all the extra people.
rightYes, I heard Zhaoyang say before that the prince prepared a cultural gathering in the afternoon?
It just so happens that I want to choose a proud husband for Zhaoyang. The two of you will help me keep an eye out for him. It is best for him to be a talented person with both civil and military skills. He is ideal and ambitious. Please give him to him. I know. ”
After hearing the Queen Mother’s instructions, the two princes felt anxious.
Although the Queen Mother did not express any blame on her face, no one knew what the Queen Mother was thinking in her heart.
When they have reached this point, the only people who can decide and influence their destiny are those in the palace.
Obviously, the Queen Mother is definitely one of them.
And because of their special relationship, the Queen Mother’s attitude is very important to them. Otherwise, they would not have made a special trip out of the city today to celebrate the birthday of their imperial sister Zhaoyang.
< br /> Putting aside the relationship with the Queen Mother, a royal sister may not be worthy of what they did.
After all, the prince said: "But, grandma, you are frightened, and your grandson has already ordered someone to cancel it. We are going to escort the imperial grandmother back to the city for the afternoon cultural gathering..."
Before he finished speaking, the Queen Mother's eyebrows darkened and she quickly changed her words: "My grandson will go down now to make arrangements. "
The Queen Mother nodded, "Well, you can go down, don't worry about me. "
"Yes..."
The prince and the third prince left the Queen Mother's temporary palace with no less anxiety than when they came.
< br />After the two of them left, Zhaoyang went to the Queen Mother's side, feeling a little unmotivated.
"What's wrong with you? "
Zhaoyang shook his head and said, "Grandma Huang, do you think it was really the First or Third Emperor who instigated this?
Could it be that the dispute between them has reached this point, and in order to achieve their goal, they even dare to ignore the safety of the emperor's grandmother? "
The Queen Mother smiled faintly: "What do you think? "
Zhaoyang didn't answer, so the Queen Mother taught: "Since ancient times, such things have not been uncommon in the Heavenly Family.
You are born in the royal family, so you should understand better than others. Many times, when you are in a whirlpool, a single thought can cause many situations where close relatives can kill each other..."
See There was some dismay in Zhaoyang's eyes after the discovery, and she knew that with her own intelligence, it was not that she didn't understand, but she was just unwilling to believe it.
Then she changed her tone and said: "However, today This matter may not have come from the two of them. "
Zhaoyang immediately asked: "Is there anyone suspicious in the emperor's grandmother's mind? ”
The Queen Mother just smiled and didn't answer, but said: "Okay, let's not talk about this matter, let's talk about your lifelong events.
But we have agreed, this time I will Choose according to the criteria you gave.
If you still give me excuses when the time comes, I will never let you go."
Zhaoyang heard the Queen Mother's old words He mentioned it again and said coquettishly: "Oh, Imperial Grandmother, why do you have to rush to marry me off? I just want to stay with Imperial Grandmother and spend more time with you..."
"You still want to deceive me? If I don't know, it's because you have too high standards and want to find someone who will satisfy you?
But in this world, how can there be so many things that satisfy your heart... "
When the Queen Mother said this, there was a brief pause in her tone.
Zhaoyang also immediately realized that the great-aunt and imperial grandmother who raised her actually had many things that were not satisfactory...
Her great-aunt, in fact, She is two years younger than her mother.
Although she was not very clear about what happened back then, she knew that when her great-aunt entered the palace at the age of fourteen, the emperor's grandfather was already over sixty.
Although Grandpa Huang loved her very much and gave her everything that a woman in the world could not achieve.
Honor, status...
But as a woman, how could she not know that perhaps, this is not what she wants.
The Queen Mother did not know that the girl she had raised with her own hands was going from here to there. Speculating on her inner loneliness, she continued: "It's all my fault that I spoiled you since you were a child and brought you up like this. A personality with eyes higher than the top.
Just in front of me, you are a little more well-behaved!
I am really worried that if you look like this, even if I marry you off, your Prince Consort, I may not be able to stand you."
"Look at what you said, how can I be so unbearable..."
" Zhaoyang felt a hundred disapproval of the Queen Mother's treatment of her. criticism.
I thought to myself, if I were to find my ideal husband, I would definitely blend in with him with the most extreme love in the world, so that the piano and the harp would sing harmoniously, and the husband would fall in love with his concubine.
That’s not what the imperial grandmother said!
As the Queen Mother, it was easy to see through her inner thoughts, so she shook her head and stopped forcing her words.
