The Cannon Fodder and Villain’s Happy Ending

Gu Jing's face was hot, and he was stabbed in the wound again by Qin Xin, the woman he once loved and hated the most.

"Snapped!"

He slapped Qin Xin in the face again with a slap. Qin Xin was so willing to be beaten like this, so he just bit and scratched with Gu Jing.

The maids and maids around were all overwhelmed and looked at each other, not knowing whether they should go to the frame or not.

As a result, their eyes all turned to Tang Fengchun, who was sitting on a Taishi chair.

Tang Fengchun sat silently by the side and watched the two scuffle into a ball, calmly drinking warm tea, neither persuading nor pulling.

For Tang Fengchun, this result is really good.

She took another sip of tea leisurely.

Even if she is locked up for a lifetime in the Second Prince's Mansion, she will never be hungry here.

She was just a weak woman. King Yu and her father asked her to come to the capital, but she couldn't resist; Gu Xi and Duanrou asked her to marry the second prince, but she couldn't resist either.

All she could do was go with the flow.

Thinking about it, Tang Fengchun looked at Gu Jing and Qin Xin with a sneer in his eyes, watching them scratch each other's face like a shrew, tearing each other's clothes, punching and kicking, where is there any prince With the demeanor of a lady!

The two of them are different from her. They had a choice, but they got themselves into this situation!

Tang Fengchun's eyes swept across Qin Xin's abdomen, and his eyes flickered.

After a moment, she raised her eyes to look at Qin Di, who had already walked away from the lattice window, and couldn't help feeling envy in her heart.

She envied Qin Di and Fang Hanjun.

Even if there will be thorns in their future lives, they must have the determination to overcome them.

She also thought that if after she came to the capital last year, she would be ruthless and tell everything to Qin Di or the emperor, would her ending be different?

However, this was only a momentary thought, and she knew that it was impossible for her to do so.

After all, her surname is Tang, and she has her mother and younger siblings in Yuzhou!

Outside, Qin Di walked into a pavilion by the pond and leisurely watched the fish while waiting for Gu Zezhi.

Jin Yiwei also thoughtfully brought her a pot of tea and two plates of snacks. Qin Di drank it one at a time, and after only half a cup, Gu Zezhi came over unhurriedly.

Qin Di greeted him for tea cheerfully, and then shared gossip with him: "Do you know who I just saw?"

Gu Zezhi asked cooperatively, "Who?"

"Gu Jing and Qin Xin," Qin Di whispered to him deliberately in a low voice, "they actually got into a fight, tsk tsk!"

When Qin Di heard the scolding between Gu Jing and Qin Xin, he casually turned his head and glanced at the wing room, she almost thought she was watching a family ethics drama!

Qin Di also finds it strange that the pair of immortals in the novel who advance and retreat together have reached this step.

Maybe it's because they didn't have enough tests in the novel, or maybe the aura of the protagonist at that time was too strong?

Qin Di played with the net tied around his waist and asked, "Will the two of them be under house arrest for a lifetime?"

Of course she was referring to Gu Jing and Qin Xin.

Gu Zezhi nodded and said, "Yes, Gu Jing will be imprisoned for a lifetime.

He simply has no heirs, and it will be enough when he dies. "

Therefore, there is no need to consider whether Gu Jing's crime will bring disaster to three generations.

Qin Di just asked casually, what happened to Gu Jing, in fact, it had nothing to do with her.

It was the original owner, and the person who made her unable to let go for a long time was Qin Xin, not Gu Jing.

Gu Zezhi squeezed her little hand and asked, "Do you want to go shopping?"

Qin Ji: "..."

Although she hadn't wandered here for a long time, she already felt that there was nothing to do here, and it wasn't as good-looking as the Prince's Mansion.

She felt that she was being fooled by Gu Zezhi, and she thought it would be fun for Jin Yiwei to raid the house, but it turned out to be very boring.

"carry on."

Qin Di waved his hand virtuously.

Looking at the back of him leaving, she couldn't help but smile again.

Well, it is very boring to say that it is boring, and it is actually quite interesting to say that it is interesting, so she should accompany him to work.

Qin Di is also idle when she is idle, so she simply feeds the fish with snacks, thinking that she can also raise a pond of lotus and fish in her yard. Enjoy the flowers, feed the fish.

When they came out of the Second Prince's Mansion, it was already an hour later, the sky was completely dark, and there were naturally no passers-by outside the mansion.

With a loud "bang", the red lacquer door of the Prince's Mansion slammed shut.

There were five or six carriages parked outside the mansion, and the carriages were full of boxes, all of which Jin Yiwei had confiscated from the Second Prince's mansion today.

Jin Yiwei personally put two seals on the gate. Next, unless the second prince dies, the gate will not be opened again.

The daily needs of the Second Prince's Mansion will also be brought in by special personnel from the side gate, and even the servants of the Second Prince's Mansion are not allowed to step out of this Prince's Mansion.

The people in this mansion can only be trapped in this small world, like a caged bird.

This also means that the second prince can no longer turn over.

Not only Qin Di, but the entire capital, everyone is watching all this.

First, Duke Cheng'en Liu Renxun died suddenly, then Duke Cheng'en's mansion was seized, seized the title, and demoted to a commoner, and then the second prince, Gu Jing, also had his wings broken, and the charge was the same as Liu Renxun's colluding with King Yu.

Some courtiers who had nothing to do with themselves sighed and felt that the second prince really couldn't think about it and violated the emperor's biggest taboo; the courtiers of the second prince's party were shivering, sleep and food was difficult, and then, the officials ordered that these officials should be taken away. All of them were seized and investigated, and all those who participated in the case of collusion with King Yu were tried by the three divisions and convicted according to the law of Daqi.

The emperor was determined to rectify the court, but in just a few days, the court was purged, and almost everyone was in danger.

For those ordinary people in the capital, it was another topic after dinner, which was lively for several days.

But Empress Dowager Liu fell ill, and Empress Wei stayed by the Empress Dowager's couch day after day, and only recovered after a few days of raising her.

But on the 14th day of the first lunar month, when Qin Di went to see the Empress Dowager Liu in Shouning Palace, she found that the Empress Dowager was getting older.

Obviously, Liu Renxun's incident hit her a lot.

Seeing Qin Di coming, Empress Dowager Liu was in a better mood, and her face became a little more joyful. After a while, she instructed the palace maid to prepare snacks for Qin Di, and later she sent her the materials that had just been paid in tribute, saying that this purple weaving gold The material is still good for a young daughter-in-law like her.

Queen Wei jokingly said that the Queen Mother has a good eye.

The atmosphere of Shouning Palace also became lightened as a result, up and down I just wished Qin Di would enter the palace every day.

Empress Dowager Liu took Qin Di's hand and said: "Xiao Di, when have you and Zezhi made an appointment to go back to the Western Xinjiang?"

Qin Di nodded and said, "It's settled.

Zezhi said that the weather has been cold recently, and he will wait until spring starts in early February. "

"February is good, this is a long journey, and the weather is getting warmer in February, which is suitable for traveling.

It should be almost the same for three months. Before the summer, you two can come back. "

Empress Dowager Liu counted the time for the young couple, "There is a lot of wind and sand in Xijiang, and the summer is hot. It's better for the two of you to go early and return early."

Whatever the Empress Dowager Liu said, Qin Di always responded well and coaxed the old man with a smile: "The Empress Dowager, wait for me to come back and bring you the specialties over there."

Empress Dowager Liu was amused and said hello.

The two were talking when a servant came in and said, "The Empress Dowager, the imperial concubine is here."

In this palace, Liu Guifei is only a noble concubine.

The atmosphere suddenly became cold.

Empress Dowager Liu: "..."

The smile on the corner of Empress Dowager Liu's lips faded, and she said lightly, "No."

In the past few days, Concubine Liu came to Shouning Palace every day to ask to see the Queen Mother, and she acted like she would never give up until she achieved her goal, but Empress Liu didn't want to see her at all. When she heard the word "Concubine Noble Concubine", she thought of Gu Jing, and her mood was Unhappy for a while.

If it wasn't for Gu Jing, why did Liu Renxun die suddenly, and how did the Liu family get to this point!

Empress Dowager Liu turned to Empress Wei and said, "Empress, if your concubine doesn't understand the rules, she can punish her as she pleases."

This sentence made Feng mama and other cronies look delicate, exchanged glances with each other, and knew in their hearts that Liu Guifei was completely fed up by the queen mother. of.

Empress Dowager Liu looked at Empress Wei with a loving expression, and she felt a little bit of guilt towards Empress in her heart.

In the past, she had indeed made the Queen feel wronged.

Because Concubine Liu Gui is her own niece and has a second prince, Empress Dowager Liu has been protecting this niece all these years. For this reason, Empress Wei is also very angry with Concubine Liu.

She also knew that she was partial to Concubine Liu, but she felt that people were partial, and it was only natural that she was partial to Concubine Liu.

After experiencing this incident, Empress Dowager Liu felt a sense of enlightenment.

It was she who had thought wrong before.

The direct wife is the direct wife, and the concubine is the concubine. There is a difference between wives and concubines, and the concubines must not be chaotic. Otherwise, this is the root of the chaos of the family and the country.

Empress Wei nodded to Empress Dowager Liu and said, "The queen mother said yes." Then she instructed Xiao Kouzi: "Pass the word of this palace, and make the noble concubine Liu as a concubine, and you must not leave the Zhongcui Palace without an edict."

Xiao Kouzi quickly took the order and went out to spread the word.

Looking at the back of Xiao Kouzi's departure, Mammy Feng and others' expressions became more complicated, and they sighed in their hearts: Concubine Liu, no, Concubine Liu and the second prince have pushed the empress dowager to the queen's side!

No one mentioned Liu Concubine again, for fear of ruining the Queen Mother's mood.

In any case, Liu Concubine is the Queen Mother's niece after all, and the blood and family love can be put down in a few words.

Mammy Feng looked at Empress Dowager Liu's slightly frowning eyebrows, and her heart became more and more solemn.

Empress Dowager Liu drank tea slowly, feeling complicated.

She has been ill recently, and she has been thinking a lot, especially the past events flashing in her mind over and over again. Sometimes she thinks about the hardships when the emperor was still alive, and more often she thinks about the eleven years after the emperor ascended the throne. kinds of happenings.

She also reflected on herself.

Over the years, in order to help the Liu family, she was stunned, forgetting the hardships she and the emperor had endured on that bitch of the Fang family when the late emperor was there.

Do not do what you want to others, and she instead inflicts this hardship on the queen.

And Qin Xin...

Thinking of Qin Xin, Mrs. Liu exerted a little force with her hand holding the tea cup, her old and turbid eyes were dark.

Back then, Empress Wei opposed Qin Xin's marriage to Gu Jing, but she was persuaded because of Gu Jing and Liu Shi's begging and persuasion, and she made the decree for the marriage.

What she thought at the time was that this marriage could kill two birds with one stone.

As a result, the beauty of adulthood is as Gu Jing intended;

Second, Qin Xin became the second prince concubine, which is also a good thing for Queen Wei. If Gu Jing ascends the throne, Qin Xin is the Queen's niece and Gu Zhen's cousin. Live the life of a wealthy and leisurely king.

Unexpectedly, this marriage that she once thought was a good match between Jin Yu and Jin Yu would come to this point. This Qin Xin is not only a fake, but also has a despicable character, and is not a good woman at all.

It was obvious that the former Gu Jing was such a well-behaved and gentle child...

Empress Dowager Liu felt a sore eye socket, swallowed the tea in her mouth, and swallowed the bitterness and bitterness in her stomach.

That's all, she's really old, she always looks back on the past, and even imagines some meaningless assumptions.

Empress Dowager Liu put down the tea cup and said again: "Queen, in the future, Aijia will enjoy happiness."

What she means is that she will no longer interfere in the affairs of the crown prince, the harem concubines, and the prince and princess.

Seeing that Empress Dowager Liu couldn't hide her exhaustion, Empress Wei coaxed her into happiness and said, "Empress Mother, this can't be done!"

"The third prince is about to pick the right concubine, so he has to let his mother help Zhangzhangyan."

Empress Dowager Liu was amused and waved her hand, "You've picked a good person, just come and kowtow to Ai's family."

Queen Wei replied with a smile.

She is a smart person, and you can probably see that the Empress Dowager Liu had a knot in her heart for the marriage between Gu Jing and Qin Xin, and she couldn't help but feel an indescribable complexity in her heart.

At that time, she and her sister had verbally joked that she wanted her niece to marry her eldest son, but before the emperor ascended the throne and the Qin family was rehabilitated, the eldest son died.

Naturally, the marriage was over.

After Qin Xin was taken back to the capital, Queen Wei kept taking care of her for her sister's sake.

She had to admit that she also had the idea of ​​marrying her niece to Gu Jing. After all, Gu Jing in the past looked gentle and was a good son-in-law.

She is the queen, and if her niece can marry Gu Jing, she can also look after Gu Yi or two.

But later, Gu Jing looked more and more different, and she couldn't get close to Qin Xin, so the matter was simply suppressed, and she didn't tell the emperor any more.

Until one day, the Empress Dowager Liu gave the order first.

Sometimes, Queen Wei would also think, if the person who was brought back eleven years ago was not Qin Xin, but Qin Di, would it be a completely different scene...

Empress Wei subconsciously looked at Qin Di who was sitting beside Empress Dowager Liu, Qin Di smiled sweetly, and all of a sudden the confusion in the empress's heart was cleared away.

Yeah, what does she want to do with all this mess.

As long as the niece is fine now.

Queen Wei smiled relievedly.

When the emperor came in, what he saw was this harmonious picture, and his steps became lighter.

With the arrival of the emperor, the atmosphere of Shouning Palace became more lively.

After the emperor solemnly discussed with Empress Dowager Liu.

In the afternoon, a decree was officially issued to establish the sixth prince, Gu Zhen, as the crown prince. This time, no one in the court objected.

Therefore, the emperor ordered the emperor Qintian to choose an auspicious day to tell the heaven and earth to sacrifice to the Taimiao, and ordered the Ministry of Rites to prepare for the canonization ceremony of the prince.

As it was related to the canonization of the crown prince, the Qin Tianjian moved very quickly. The next day, three auspicious days were chosen. The emperor chose the nearest day, February 15th.

For the people of the capital, this is also a big happy event. The people are also very happy. Some teahouses and restaurants have set off firecrackers for several days. The turmoil caused by the collusion with King Yu was completely suppressed.

Later, the emperor issued another decree to send Qin Xin to Yuzhou.

The emperor's imperial edict was written extremely explosively, meaning that the Qin family was pregnant with the flesh and blood of Gu Xi, the third son of King Yu, and should send it back to Yuzhou, so that King Yu could take care of his grandson.

The imperial decree was straightforward and did not mean to conceal it at all, which immediately caused another uproar in the capital.

Everyone knows the name of the Qin family, the concubine of the second prince, and the fragrant stories about the second prince and this concubine have been widely spread in Beijing, and they are still in their ears.

The Qin family was the concubine of the second prince.

But what she was carrying was actually the child of King Yu's son!

Anyone who is not a fool can see King Yu's malicious intentions.

Those commoners and literati and Mo Shi have the will to criticize the father and son of King Yu, and they are filled with righteous indignation:

"This King Yu is simply scheming!"

"That's right, he clearly wants to usurp the throne. He is really ambitious, and his heart is not dead!"

"Yeah yeah.

Someone from my aunt's nephew's Yue family was working in Jingzhao Mansion. I heard that King Yu even gave it to the court, so it must be said that the official family detained the third son of King Yu. "

"It's funny, it's really funny.

The officials have sent all the Qin family over, showing their kindness, how could they detain the third son of King Yu! "

"King Yu is a thief calling to catch a thief!"

"What do I have to say to the chaotic ministers and thieves, whether King Yu asked the concubine to feign death, or saying that his son was detained by the officials, this is all to find an excuse to force the palace to rebel!"

"..."

The common people are more and more indignant. They feel that King Yu is not only shameless, but also has no excuse for the crime. Since King Yu has the intention to force the palace, sooner or later, he will send troops. He appealed to the imperial court to attack the rebel King Yu, and to bring peace to Daqi.

These voices naturally reached the ears of the courtiers, and the elders and senior officials who witnessed the incident in the imperial study that day were a little stunned.

At the beginning, the emperor didn't give a seal about the Qin family's mischief. They all thought that the emperor was in a hurry, so they forgot. This matter is really important, and the elders did not dare to say it.

As a result, it turned out that the emperor did not want to keep his mouth shut at all.

In this regard, when several senior cabinet ministers gathered to discuss official affairs, it was inevitable that they also quietly discussed a few words.

Daqi Dynasty has never had such a scandal in more than a hundred years! Not only did the emperor not hide it, but he even made it known to the world, which made them somewhat disagree.

Faced with these private discussions, Li Shoufu slowly twitched his long beard and said, "Is the face more important or the country?

This battle between the imperial court and Yuzhou is probably inevitable. "

King Yu has hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Yuzhou, and he has soldiers and money, but the court has no certainty of victory. Therefore, from Concubine Fang's "feigned death" to Qin's pregnancy, the emperor should have the intention to take advantage of this series of things. Step by step aroused the righteous indignation of the people, so that King Yu could be beaten into a chaotic thief, so that the whole country could be united.

The key to fighting is to have a famous teacher, so as to mobilize the morale of the soldiers and gain the support of the people, so as to achieve the effect of one heart, so King Yu has to fight, and he has waited for so long, and finally waited until he felt that the time was right, and he still had to fight. The concubine's title of "unjust death" was used as an excuse for the Qing emperor's side to expedition to the north.

Since ancient times, those who have won the hearts of the people have won the world.

This is the eternal truth.

The house fell silent for a while.

After a while, Li Shoufu's long sigh interrupted the silence in the room.

"The emperor's methods have become more sophisticated."

Li Shoufu sighed.

This is also the voice of the other elders.

As the emperor's dragon body became healthy, it seemed that the emperor became more and more vigorous and decisive.

Knowing what the emperor meant, the cabinet elders also knew what to do. All of them fanned the flames in the courtroom, provoking the dissatisfaction of the civil and military officials against King Yu.

It was such a big commotion that the patriarchs and elders of the Qin family also heard about it. They were afraid, but also secretly glad: fortunately, they listened to Qin Zening's words and gave Qin Xin to the clan as soon as possible. With Qin Xin's accusation of trying to confuse the royal blood, their entire Qin family will be implicated by her.

It is true that if there is a mother, there must be a daughter. Qin Xin's biological mother not only replaced other people's daughters, but also had human lives on her hands. No wonder she gave birth to such a shameless daughter!

The patriarch only hated that he didn't force Qin Xin to change back to Li Xin at that time, and also saved everyone from calling him "Qin's Qin", which would implicate the Qin family.

In any case, their Qin family was fortunately not hurt this time.

In these hustle and bustle, the days passed by day by day, and after ten days, not only did not show signs of subsidence, but also intensified, and even the storytellers made up a joke to say it in the restaurant, and the opera troupe arranged it as play.

When Qin Di went out to eat tea, she heard a lot of things, and she couldn't help but sigh: She doesn't believe that these things have nothing to do with Gu Zezhi!

These days, Qin Di had already packed her luggage. On the first day of the second lunar month, she and Gu Zezhi left Beijing.

They didn't bring many people or things with them this time, including the carriage that Qin Di was in, there were only five carriages in total. Qin Zening and Qin Zeyu both came to deliver them early that morning, and they kept sending people to the city. Wuli Pavilion outside.

Qin Zeyu reluctantly looked at Qin Di in the carriage. She used to think that her brother-in-law was fine, but now she looked at Gu Zezhi again, but there was a trace of dissatisfaction in her eyes.

Why is my brother-in-law's home so far away in the Western Xinjiang?

Qin Di reprimanded his younger brother with a stern face: "Ayu, don't be lazy during the few months I'm away, you need to read books and practice martial arts. When your brother-in-law and I come back, we will check your homework."

In one sentence, Qin Zeyu's melancholy of parting was washed away.

He patted his chest and said, "Sister, I am now studying and practicing martial arts very carefully. If you don't believe me, go ask Mr. and Master Yue."

"In this big capital, there are very few people who are as capable as me...just a little worse than my brother-in-law!"

Qin Zeyu brazenly boasted.

Qin Di looked at the bear child without words, and felt that self-confidence is a good thing, but this child has no self-knowledge at all, how can blind self-confidence be good! The gap between him and Gu Zezhi is more than "so little"!

Qin Zening directly rewarded Qin Zeyu, "Xiaoji, don't worry about him, I'm watching him!"

Gu Zezhi looked at the three brothers and sisters, put his fists on his lips, chuckled lightly, and then said, "Ayu, if your sister can pass your homework when you return to the capital, I will give you a Persian bend. Knife."

"Brother-in-law, you are so nice!"

Qin Zeyu's eyes lit up like a pair of gems, and he was extremely excited.

Or brother-in-law, compared to his brother and his sister, the brother-in-law is the kiss!

Qin Zeyu patted Gu Zezhi's chest for a while and assured him that he was so affectionate that he could not wait to go with Gu Zezhi and Qin Di.

Qin Di couldn't bear it any longer, and felt that if this arrogant child was sold by Gu Zezhi in the future, he would definitely give him some money back.

She and Qin Zening exchanged a tacit look.

Qin Zening cleared his throat and said, "Xiaoji, A Yu and I will take you here. You and Zezhi should set off early, so as not to miss the station."

Qin Zeyu almost said that it would be better for him to give him another ride, and his brother swallowed the words with a stare.

Qin Di was a little funny, and waved goodbye to the brothers, "Ayu, your brother-in-law and I will be back soon."

Qin Zening and Qin Zeyu stayed by the Wuli Pavilion and watched as Gu Zezhi and Qin Di's chariots and horses gradually drifted away along the official road.

From the capital to the western border, it is more than 3,000 miles away. Generally speaking, it takes a month for a caravan to travel, but Gu Zezhi was afraid that Qin Di would be tired, so he didn’t rush the journey deliberately, just like traveling all the way to the mountains. Like playing in the water, very leisurely.

When Gu Zezhi came to the capital from Xijiang the year before, he did not follow this route. In order to avoid Gu Chenzhi's assassins, he deliberately made a detour from Yuzhou. This time, there was no need. He came from Jinan. State to go.

When they walked out of the Jinzhou boundary, Qin Xin also left the Jinzhou boundary at about the same time, but she was sent south to Suhe City in Yuzhou.
