The Cannon Fodder and Villain’s Happy Ending

It was Jin Yiwei deputy commander Ren Chenghao who came to give off. When fifty Jin Yiwei dressed in flying fish costumes entered the city mightily, they attracted the attention of many people. Ren Chenghao conveyed the emperor's meaning:

"The prince, the emperor said, you must hand the Qin clan to your prince personally, lest the blood of the Prince Yu Mansion is left out, and the emperor's spirit in the sky is hard to look down upon.

After Ren Chenghao finished speaking, regardless of Wang Yu's reaction, he left.

"The prince." Wangfu Changshi looked at Wang Yu with a questioning look, meaning, did you just let this group of Jinyiwei go?

King Yu's face was green and blue veins on his forehead jumped wildly, and he was almost furious.

He couldn't wait to take Jin Yiwei down, but this Ren Chenghao was sent by the emperor openly. When he entered the city, he was upright, so many eyes watched them send the Qin family into the Yu Palace.

If he kills Jin Yiwei, he can vent his hatred, but what would outsiders think of him?

The two countries will not be cut off in the war.

Wang Yu squinted his eyes, but still held back his anger.

When he looked at Qin Xin again, his face was so gloomy that ink almost dripped out, and there was no good expression on his face.

Qin Xin was wearing a blue cloak. His lower abdomen was slightly raised, but the person had lost a lot of weight. His white face was a little haggard and waxy, and it was no longer as bright as it once was.

She didn't dare to look directly at Wang Yu's compelling gaze, and she looked down slightly, panicking and frightened.

But besides being afraid, she also had expectations on the way from Beijing to Yuzhou.

Before the emperor sent her away from the capital, she thought that she would be trapped in the Second Prince's Mansion for the rest of her life, and that she would be entangled with Gu Jing for the rest of her life.

Childbirth is a matter of life and death. She was really afraid that she would not be able to give birth to the baby in her belly alive. She didn't expect the emperor to send Jinyiwei to Yuzhou.

When she comes to Yuzhou, she can be with Gu Xi!

She can still start again in Yuzhou, even if she can't be Gu Xi's house, she can still be a good wife and concubine.

There is hope in her life.

Qin Xin clenched the veil in his hand tightly, and couldn't help but look up at Wang Yu again.

King Yu looked at him in his early thirties. He wore a green bamboo brocade robe. His features were heroic, and he was tall and mighty. But just sitting there exuded an imposing force of no anger and prestige, which was totally different from the emperor’s gentleness and elegance. Different, the two brothers are far from each other in appearance and temperament.

Qin Xin only took a look, then looked down again, but listened to Wang Yu's cold voice: "Put her in prison."

This "she" refers of course to Qin Xin.

Qin Xin: "?"

As if he had been knocked down by a bucket of cold water, Qin Xin's eyes widened in disbelief, and his mouth opened: "Master, I want to see the third son..."

What else did she want to say, but Prince Yu Mansion was not the place where she was clamoring. When the king Yu gave an order, two big-waisted women came in immediately, and a rag rudely stuffed Qin Xin's mouth and blocked it. Her mouth then dragged the person out of the hall.

The two women were disdainful. Regardless of whether the child in Qin’s stomach belongs to the third son, in the Prince Yu’s palace, this child is nothing.

King Yu is not without grandsons, he doesn't care about this in Qin's stomach at all. What's more, this child is only a treacherous son, and he is ashamed to say what he can do in the future!

Qin Xin struggled unwillingly. She still had a lot to say, but she never had a chance to say it again. She only felt the pain in the arms shackled by the two wives. There was only one thought left in her mind: How could this be? !

Wang Yu didn't even look at Qin Xin. For him, Qin Xin is insignificant.

In the main hall, the atmosphere became serious.

Chang Shi made a gesture, and the servants who served in the hall retreated.

Wang Yu frowned slightly, his whole person was like a full bow.

Because the stronghold in the capital was ruined by the imperial court, the speed of information transmission was much slower. The king of Yu only learned about the latest situation in the capital three days ago.

The second prince Gu Jing was banned by the emperor;

Cheng En Gong Liu Renxun died;

In addition, the emperor spread the word about Qin Xin and Gu Xi's affair.

One pile, one by one, was out of the control of King Yu.

Thinking about it, King Yu's fists were clenched tighter, his eyes darkened.

Last year, he asked Gu Xi and Duan Rou to go to the capital. He had a rigorous plan, and he even sent Fang Hanjun out, but in the end he lost everything.

The price is too great!

I have to say that the emperor’s series of methods are too ruthless. He knew their plan tomorrow morning, but he pushed the boat along the river calmly. Not only did he kill the concubine, but he also detained Gu Xi and Duanrou, but he was still hypocritical. The earth made the people of the world think that Gu Xi and Duan Rou had taken away the concubine, deceived the people of the world, and pointed the finger at him.

hateful!

"Snapped!"

The king of Yu slammed the Ruyi Xiaofang table on hand heavily, and even the tea in the teacup overflowed a lot.

The emperor he knows has always been an indecisive, indecisive, forward-looking person who can't afford to be the prince of a country at all, that is, occupying the title of the eldest son of the emperor. Since when did the emperor become so wise? !

Wang Yu said coldly: "The emperor wants to force this king to do it first!"

"The emperor still wants to take up justice."

Wang Yu's voice was getting colder and colder, and it was so cold that icy dross fell.

Chang Shi sighed solemnly: "Master, but this time, we are indeed in a passive position..."

If they did it at this time, it would have been the emperor’s intention. People in the world would only think that the Yu Mansion had rebellious ambitions. Even if the King Yu had won the world, it would inevitably be shadowed by people like the former Emperor Yingzong. Questioned whether he had seized the throne of his nephew.

But if he didn't do it, and missed this rare opportunity, it would have given the emperor time to recuperate.

Now the external disturbances in Daqi have subsided, and the internal troubles have gradually stabilized. Daqi has thousands of miles of rivers and mountains and tens of millions of people. It is a large country in the Central Plains. When the court is relieved from the previous difficulties, they rely solely on the power of Yuzhou. , It is difficult to come back and win the capital.

To put it more ugly, the emperor was somewhat subject to the poisonous oath he knelt down in front of the dragon bed of the first emperor, but the prince did not. When the prince became the throne more than ten years later, the great kingdom was prosperous, and the new emperor could still afford Yuzhou? !

It is impossible for Daqi and Yuzhou to coexist. Sooner or later there will be a battle, either you die or I die.

For Wang Yu, now is the best opportunity.

Originally, if something went wrong with the plan, the situation should have been better. Chang Shi was frustrated.

King Yu was also unwilling in his heart, but now, the deal is done, and thinking about these things will not help.

The king of Yu pondered for a moment, and asked: "Can I have a letter from Prince Duan?"

Chang Shi shook his head.

King Yu shook his fist, released it again, and then said: "This king intends to let Dongping uncle go to Luo'an City. If this matter is to be done, we still need Duan King to respond to this king." He could not wait any longer. Now, either the east wind is pressing the west wind, or the west wind is pressing the east wind, he can't give the emperor a chance to consolidate the country in vain.

Chang Shi nodded in response: "Later, his subordinates will personally go to Dongping Bofu and inform the uncle."

With the help of King Duan's Mansion, King Yu could be more sure of the uprising, and Yuzhou would have no worries about the future, and King Yu could safely lead his troops in the Northern Expedition.

Thinking about it, Chang Shi's eyes seemed to be ignited with scorching flames, and his blood also boiled. Fortune was still on the side of King Yu.

Chang Shi was about to retire, and he remembered one more thing, so he said: "Master, my subordinates heard that Gu Zezhi has returned to Xijiang."

Wang Yu: "?"

Chang Shi explained: "Gu Zezhi just got married during the twelfth lunar month, and took his wife back to Xijiang to greet the king of Duan. It is estimated that people should also be in Xijiang in early March."

Wang Yu squinted his eyes, his narrow eyes became deeper and deeper, sharp as a knife, and looked towards the west sky through the open window.

The sky is blue and transparent, and the snow-white clouds move with the wind, unpredictable.

After a while, Chang Shi hurried out of the main hall.

He didn't know that he was completely wrong, Gu Zezhi and Qin Jiu arrived in Luo'an City nearly half a month later than he expected.

Luo'an City is the largest city in Western Xinjiang. Every day, there are long lines of people waiting to enter the city at the gate of the city. At dusk of this day, the carriages of Gu Zezhi and Qin Jiu have already arrived outside the city. The last side of the team.

Qin Jiu poked his head out of the window on the side of the carriage, his small face could not conceal the fatigue of the carriage, but his **** and white eyes were gleaming, and he looked at the high city wall ahead and said: "This It's Luo'an City."

The setting sun burned the western half of the sky to a glow.

Under the sunlight, there is a city pool surrounded by towering gray city walls. Above the huge city gate, there are three big characters with dragons flying and phoenix dancing-Luo'an City. These three characters are slightly mottled under the years of corrosion by the wind, frost and cold dew, but they also reveal an ancient domineering.

Traveling thousands of miles westward, Gu Zezhi tried his best to walk slowly, and it was inevitable that he would encounter a lot of inconveniences along the way. He could only accommodate and then accommodate. For more than a month, Qin Jiu lost several kilos of meat raised in the capital.

Today, I finally arrived in Luo'an City. Qin Jiu really wanted to grow a pair of wings and fly in. He wanted to take a good bath and change clothes, and then get a good night's sleep.

Although she knew in her heart that Duan Palace was the wolf's lair, not to mention the confused and eccentric Duan Wang, Feng Fangfei, Gu Chenzhi and Duan Wang Shizi concubine must be deliberate, always waiting for the knife to be stabbed. Did she cut it?

Qin Jiu yawned lazily, presumably the next copy in Luoan City will never be boring...

Anyway, with the golden thighs, she will be responsible for a vase.

Qin Jiu retracted his gaze and looked at Gu Zezhi beside the carriage.

Gu Zezhi rides on a tall and vigorous black horse, wearing a brocade robe with a purple crane pattern, and his fair skin is moist and shiny. At this moment, when he looks up to the front, his face is sharp and angular, in the glow of the setting sun. Below, the face is like a jade, the **** is handsome, and there is a faint sense of alienation, grace and nobleness, quiet and peaceful.

In the next moment, he bowed his head and looked at her, with a slight smile on the corners of his mouth, and Yan Li's face became a little more gentle, just like the beautiful Chunhui in March, with grace and grace.

It is as if the banned immortal above the nine heavens walked down the mortal world.

He smiled and said: "The three characters Luo'an City on the wall are still written by the Emperor Tai/Zu."

Qin Jiao was suddenly excited, raised his eyebrows, and motioned him to continue talking.

Gu Zezhi chatted with her casually.

Emperor Taizu was originally a general who guarded the Western Xinjiang. The city of Luo'an fell into the hands of Xidi for five years. When Emperor Taizu led his troops to retake Luo'an City, the three characters "Luo'an City" on the wall had long been used by Xidi people. The emperor Taizu picked up the pen and invited the best craftsman in Xijiang to engrave it.

The young couple said and listened to each other, both attentively. They did not notice that there was a scorching gaze on the city wall looking at Gu Zezhi's direction.

A square-faced teenager hurriedly stepped down from the city wall, randomly mounted a brown horse, and rode the horse out of the city gate. The people in the line rushed to both sides and gave him a way.

The square-faced teenager rode straight to a place two feet away from Gu Zezhi, and flew down again, smiling at the horseman Gu Zezhi with a fist and saluted: "San Gongzi!"

The Fang Lian boy was stunned when he saw Gu Zezhi on the wall. He thought he was a daydream.

Everyone knows that San Gongzi is now deeply valued by Jinshang and was left in the capital...

At this moment, when he saw Qin Jiao in the carriage, he suddenly realized.

By the way, the third son got married last year!

He guessed the identity of Qin Jiu, and kissed Qin Jiu affectionately and bowed his fists: "The last general Su Jue has met the third lady."

I want to come to San Gongzi this time is to bring his new wife to greet the prince.

"Master Su." Qin Jiu nodded slightly, smiled decently and generously.

Although Su Jue wanted to reminisce about the old with Gu Zezhi, but thinking about Gu Zezhi's journey of thousands of miles, it must have been hard work, so he didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "San Gongzi, I will **** you and the third wife into the city. ."

Su Jue gave orders to the guards, and the guards immediately arranged for the cleansing.

Duan Palace’s position in Xijiang is detached and protects the people’s well-being. Everyone knows that from the prince’s son to several princes, they have been on the front line and **** battlefield. The people heard that Duan Palace’s people entered the city. The guards at the gate rushed, so one of the pedestrians from Gu Ze naturally entered the city first.

Su Jue sent them three streets before retiring.

Gu Zezhi smiled and said, "I will ask you to go for a drink in a few days."

Qin Jiu glanced at Gu Ze more when he heard the words, and felt that his soft voice was a little more sincere than usual.

"Then I will drink your wedding wine from the third son at the end." Su Jue responded with a smile and rode away.

Gu Zezhi seemed to know what Qin Jiu was thinking, and said: "This is my former colleague."

Qin Jiu blinked, and she remembered that when Gu Zezhi was in Xijiang, he had brought soldiers to fight.

She couldn't help but looked up and down at the elegant Gu Zezhi outside, who also had a kind of Confucian general.

As the so-called "feather fan and turban, between talking and laughing, the ash is gone." Qin Jiao covered his mouth with silly joy, and returned to the carriage.

Gu Zezhi raised his eyebrows and wanted to go in to torture to extract a confession, but it was a pity...

He glanced forward with a little regret, and the next street was Duanwangfu.

A line of carts and horses turned right at the fork in front. The wide street was empty, and the whole street was shrouded in the shade of a dense forest, and there was a majesty in the silence.

Gu Zezhi pointed to the front and smiled at Qin Jiu in the carriage: "Xiao Jiu, the palace is here."

Qin Jiu opened the curtain on the left side of the carriage again and looked in the direction of Gu Zezhi. The big bronzing plaque with the characters "Duanwangfu" came into her eyes.

In front of the vermillion lacquer gate of the palace, lying two vivid stone lions, tall and mighty, majestic.

Qin Jiu was still wondering if it would be like Zhai Dou Ju, Gong Dou Ju or something. As soon as she walked in, someone would give her a pretense, but everything went smoothly.

No one closed the door to prevent them from entering, no one deliberately left them in the air, and no one blamed Sang Huai in a weird manner...

Qin Jiu squeezed his strength and had nowhere to do it, and was led to the front hall of the inner courtyard with Gu Zezhi so smoothly.

The main hall of Duanwang Mansion is very magnificent. There is a large plaque and a splash-ink landscape painting on the front wall. Below is a long case of carved red sandalwood. On both sides are red sandalwood carved maisonettes. On both sides of the hall are two sixteen. Zhang Nan's wooden armchair is covered with a gorgeous Persian wool carpet in the center of the mirror-like golden brick floor.

"Father."

The couple saluted King Duan who was sitting on the upper armchair.

King Duan was obviously in a good mood, his eyes narrowed with a smile.

Before leaving, Gu Zezhi hand-written a letter from his family to the Duanwang Mansion. Duanwang had been looking forward to it. I thought they would arrive at the beginning of the month. I didn't expect it to be so long. Now I look at my third daughter-in-law, delicate and weak. He finally knew why.

The year before last, when he and the princess went on the road from Xijiang to the capital together, they also spent a lot of extra time.

Thinking of the princess, Duan Wang’s smile froze slightly, and asked: "Zezhi, how is your mother?"

Gu Zezhi said: "My mother is fine."

He only said these three words and there was no follow-up.

These three words almost said that Mrs. Xiao had no relationship with King Duan.

Duan Wang pursed his lips and looked at Gu Zezhi, his eyes sharp as a knife, but Gu Zezhi's smile was always shallow and motionless.

It seems kind but indifferent.

It seems respectful but really alienated.

It seems mild, but tough.

After a while, King Duan seemed to let out a sigh of relief, and the conversation turned around: "Zezhi, is your errand going well?"

"Father Lao is concerned that everything is going well, so the emperor specially let me take a few months off and let me take Xiao Jiu to Luo'an City." Gu Zezhi smiled, saying that only he and Qin Jiu knew about it. The meaning is profound.

He kept smiling, even under King Duan's sharp gaze, the curvature of the corners of his lips did not change a bit, with a sense of calmness and calmness, which made King Duan sigh with emotion: He is a son, not like a father. , Not like a mother, but 90% like his grandfather, looking elegant and gentle, in fact...

But Fan Zezhi is less stubborn, why is he and the son like this...

Thinking about the current situation of the brothers being incompatible with fire and water, King Duan had a headache, and his heart was depressed, and he said: "Zezhi, your eldest brother originally planned to pick you up today, but something happened temporarily and he didn't get it..."

King Duan wanted to ease the relationship between the two brothers, so he tactfully said something nice for the eldest son.

"Father, what's the matter?" Gu Zezhi interrupted King Duan with a focus.

"..." Duan Wang's face was not very good, his eyes were dark.

Gu Zezhi asked again: "But what's wrong?"

At this point, even Qin Jiu could see that there must be something wrong. She pretended to hold up the tea cup and brushed away the floating foam in the tea soup with the tea lid. In fact, she curiously waited with her ears to listen to gossip. .

King Duan didn't intend to hide from Gu Zezhi, so when he asked, he said: "The King Yu sent someone to Luo'an City a few days ago."

Qin Jiao: "..."

Sure enough! Qin Jiu listened more seriously while pretending to be drinking tea.

Gu Zezhi: "Who is here?"

"Uncle Dongping." King Duan frowned. "He said that he heard that your elder brother is sick, and he came to visit your elder brother on behalf of King Yu."

However, Duan Wang felt that something was wrong.

The king of Yu is a serious concern to the court. Who knows that the king of Yu is ambitious, how can they be too close to the people of the palace of Yu, but Gu Chenzhi said that he was a guest from afar and always had to entertain one or two. He was measured and persuaded Duan Wang to feel at ease.

Where can King Duan feel at ease? These days, I have talked to Gu Chenzhi several times about this matter, and the father and son had different opinions. At this time, King Duan and Gu Zezhi's mention of this matter seemed to be somewhat grumbling.

Uncle Dongping? Qin Jiu's ears stood up. If she remembered correctly, Uncle Dong Ping was Fang Hanjun's biological father, the scumbag who killed Princess Yongle!

Gu Zezhi still smiled slightly, the curvature of the corner of his right lip rose a little, and said in his heart: It really came.

He also guessed that the situation in the capital had developed to this point, and the king of Yu had been forced to the edge of the cliff, and he was bound to contact Gu Chenzhi.

Gu Zezhi's eyes flashed, and he said, "Before I set off to Xijiang, something happened in the capital, does the father know?"

"What's the matter?" Duan Wang looked at Gu Zezhi confusedly.

Gu Zezhi told people that Gu Xi sent people to set fire in the Tai'an Palace and robbed the concubine Fang, as well as the collusion between Gu Jing and the Prince Yu's Mansion later. They were all the emperor's external statements.

Duan Wang's face became more and more ugly, and the more he listened, the more frightened he became.

Xijiang is located in a remote area. Some news about the capital was slow to spread, and King Duan didn't place anyone in the capital. Therefore, he didn't know these things until now.

After thinking about it for a while, he understood King Yu's intentions, his right hand was tightly clenched into a fist, and Gu Zezhi looked at each other, and said in a deep voice, "The King Yu is preparing for the Northern Expedition."

To his own son, King Duan didn't hide and tuck him, he had something to say straight.

Gu Zezhi nodded: "So I'm back from this trip, and I will leave in a few days."

Duan Wang originally wanted to keep Gu Zezhi and Qin Jiu staying for a longer period of time, but now listening to him say this, although he is a little bit dissatisfied, he still agrees, and thinks it should be.

The man’s ambition is everywhere. As a father, he hopes that his son can stay by his side and that his brothers can support each other, but the misunderstanding between their brothers is obviously not resolved in a short while, smelly near, smelly far away , It is better to let the three sons stay in the capital, so as to avoid the brothers being mutilated.

Duan Wang’s mood is somewhat solemn, not only because of family affairs, but also because of state affairs. It is conceivable that once the king of Yu rises up, this battle will not be like those in Minzhou and Jinzhou. put down……

King Duan was meditating while holding up the tea cup, and suddenly thought of Uncle Dong Ping, the tea cup stopped in mid-air.

wrong.

Since Wang Yu had already planned to expedite the Northern Expedition, he sent Uncle Dong Ping over at this time, and he certainly wouldn't be here to visit Gu Chenzhi.

Duan Wang's heart jumped suddenly, his pupils shrank slightly, and he stopped talking.

Thinking that the daughter-in-law was still present, this matter was related to the entire Duan Palace. After all, Duan Wang didn't say anything, so he decided to talk to the third son in private later.

King Duan was sipping tea with some restlessness, and Gu Zezhi also noticed that King Duan's soul was not in the house, but he didn't question him, he just didn't know.

At this time, there was a loud voice and laughter outside.

Twenty or thirty people came to this side mightily, men, women and children, from four or five years old to fifty-somethings, all dressed in glamorous clothes and jewels, headed by two wearing five beaded crowns. Woman.

Although Qin Zhuo didn't know these people, he could hardly guess that these should be the two side concubines of King Duan, concubines and concubines, daughters-in-law and grandchildren.

Such a group of people couldn't help but let the blind-faced Qin Jiu remember the cumbersomeness of going to the palace to admit his relatives the next day after the big wedding.

There are too many people surnamed Gu!

Qin Jiu murmured silently in his heart.

Qin Jiu was looking at them, and they were also looking at Qin Jiu. Everyone's eyes were basically projected on her. They looked different, some were curious, some were picky, some were not smiling, and some were surprised.

They also knew that Qin Jiu would follow Gu Zezhi to come to Western Xinjiang, so it was inevitable to inquire about Qin Jiu's life background and knew that she was the niece of Queen Wei, and that she was raised in the countryside.

They were still thinking that Gu Zezhi's new wife might not be able to make it to the stage. At this moment, seeing the real person with their own eyes and seeing Qin Jiu's handsome appearance and generous gestures, they were somewhat surprised.

Could the rumors be wrong? Several people exchanged glances in twos and threes.
