King Gongxi closed his eyes, as calm as water.
His heart was already in chaos.
After the fourth child was plotted to death, he thought he was in control of the situation, but that was not the case at all.
Last time the third child's sweetheart died, and this time the sixth child lost his ear. These two things were enough to make his father extremely disappointed in him and never use him again.
The ministers in the imperial court are all useless. Those ministers will fall in love with whomever the father trusts and favors. This is very realistic.
He felt like a lot of things were slowly draining away.
"Your Majesty, the plan for now is to kill two birds with one stone, and to divert trouble to the east." Xie Shi'an said slowly, "In this way, we will kill two eagles with one stone, kill two birds with one stone, and eliminate two enemies for the prince."
King Gongxi said coldly: "If this thing goes wrong again, you won't have to live."
Xie Shi'an lowered his head and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, this will definitely happen."
Yunchu sat in the yard admiring the flowers. In the late spring and early summer, the flowers bloomed one after another, attracting butterflies, which was particularly beautiful.
The two children were happily catching butterflies, shutting them in jars, and bringing them to her.
Not long after, Qiu Tong came to report: "Princess, the fifth prince was deprived of his title by the emperor and was punished to live in seclusion for a year."
Yunchu's eyes were slightly cold.
King Gongxi directly put the blame on the fifth prince. The fifth prince probably never dreamed that he had just become a prince and had his title and title taken away in the blink of an eye. It was a disaster from heaven.
The emperor thought that he had wronged King Gongxi, so he would double his compensation.
King Gongxi not only schemed against two brothers, but also got compensation from the emperor. It was really a good plan.
Now, the fourth prince died, the fifth prince was deposed, and the sixth prince became disabled. All three princes were poisoned by King Gongxi.
The next thing is probably to use the Seventh Prince to achieve some purpose...
Fortunately, Lao Ba is about to leave Beijing. After the Queen Mother is buried in the imperial mausoleum, Lao Ba will go to his fiefdom and be far away from the whirlpool of right and wrong in the capital.
Chu Yi sat down next to her and said with deep eyes: "These days, I have arranged for people to keep an eye on Xie Shi'an. This strategy was proposed by him. He is a rare counselor. I know that Chu'er you are afraid of him. It’s better to…”
He made a motion of wiping his neck.
He never kills children, even if they are bandit children in a bandit's den, he will spare their lives.
But this Xie Shi'an is really not a normal person. Killing Xie Shi'an can make Chu'er feel at ease, so he is willing to violate his principles.
Yun Chu held his hand and said, "To deal with King Gongxi, Xie Shi'an is the key."
Chu Yi frowned: "You mean, he will betray you?"
"He is a person who puts interests first." Yun Chu smiled, "He would not choose King Gongxi, nor would he choose me, his former aunt, but he would only choose the benefits that are easily available. Although such a person is worthy of fear, But, it will also be a sharp knife."
In the previous life, this knife killed more than a hundred members of the Yun family.
Then, in this life, let Xie Shian use this knife to pull down King Gongxi.
Chu Yi understood: "Let this knife be sharpened."
After talking about the business, he lowered his head and kissed Yun Chu's lips.
"Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah..." Chu Hongyu's voice came, "Father, men and women cannot be intimate, please let go of my mother!"
Chu Changsheng shouted: "Let go of our mother!"
Chu Yi: "..."
Find an opportunity to send these two little guys to the palace to stay for a few more days.
He had no choice but to let go of Yun Chu, get up and go to the study to read official documents.
Yun Chu pulled Chu Hongyu and said, "Brother Yu, I'm going to the imperial mausoleum in two days. Have you finished reading your book?"
The little guy shrank his shoulders guiltily, and then went to read and write obediently.
Yun Chu picked up his youngest daughter and said, "Chang Sheng, mother plans to invite the master to formally teach you. I will only teach you for one hour every day. How about that?"
Chu Changsheng grabbed Yun Chu's collar, shook his head and said, "No, don't."
"We, Chang Sheng, are the most powerful. There will be no problem. Mom will accompany you." Yun Chu said with a gentle smile, "Mom will invite some girls similar to you to play at home. See who you like. Let her study with you, okay?"
She hopes that Chang Sheng can read and write, and that Chang Sheng can make friends and slowly become lively and cheerful.
This time the little girl did not shake her head, but thought about it for a long time and then said: "Xian, I like her."
"Xian, Sister Xian?" Yun Chu was surprised, "Is she the little girl that Aunt Jiang brought a few days ago?"
Chu Changsheng nodded: "She, she is also timid. I like her."
Yun Chu: "..."
Sister Xian was originally quiet and timid, but after the Xie family's incident, her temper became even more depressed. She was held hostage by Xie Shi'an a while ago, so she became a frightened bird and was always worried.
Chang Sheng wanted a companion who was less timid than himself, so as to show that he was not timid.
Yunchu was a little worried. If two timid girls study together, will it become more and more boring in the future...
"Xian, can't you?"
The little girl asked, blinking her big eyes.
Yun Chu smiled and nodded: "Of course, I will invite her to visit me in a few days to see if she is willing."
Chu Changsheng laughed happily.
Tingxue also laughed. When Miss Xie came to the palace a while ago, she was the one who played with several children. Miss Xie and the little princess could indeed play together.
I hope that with Miss Xie’s company, the little princess will get better and better.
Tingxue walked out of the house, preparing to get some spices to add to the spices. As soon as she walked to the corner of the yard, a figure appeared.
"Master Cheng?!" She was so frightened that her heart skipped a beat, "Why are you hiding here? It's okay to scare me. Don't scare the little master."
The program scratched his head: "Sister Tingxue, I..."
"Master Cheng, I have told you that I am twenty this year and two years younger than you. I cannot be called sister."
"Calling you sister has nothing to do with age, it just feels closer." The program's dark face showed a strange red color, "Well, this is all my property."
He stuffed a huge bundle into Tingxue's arms.
Tingxue felt her arms sink and she almost fell down.
She couldn't pick it up, and when she let go, the big bundle fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
She said in disbelief: "Is this money?"
The program nodded like garlic: "Tingxue, I have liked you for a long time. I want to marry you as my wife. This is my betrothal gift."
"W-what?!"
Tingxue was stunned.
She suspected there was something wrong with her ears.
"I said, I want to marry you." The program picked up the baggage, "There are a total of 8,300 taels of silver here. It is all the wealth I have saved over the years. All of it is given to you."
Tingxue only felt that her hands were extremely hot.
He turned around and ran away.
"Hey, Tingxue..."
The program wanted to catch up, but when he saw someone coming, he had to stop.
He specifically asked about it. He asked a better matchmaker for five taels of silver. He would also pay the matchmaker on the day of the wedding. It would cost about twenty taels... What can't be done with so much money? Why? If it were to be given to the matchmaker for free, it would be better to keep it for the couple themselves.
So, he decided to come and discuss the marriage in person... He didn't expect that he would scare the person away.
The program stayed where it was without tears.
