Mountain and River Pillow

Vol 2 Chapter 24: (two more)

    Wei Yun was stunned by what he said. After Chu Yu said it in one breath, he finally realized that his current temperament was a bit like fifteen years old.

    The two were silent, Chu Yu adjusted her mood, and Wei Yun finally said after digesting what she said: "Sister-in-law's words, I wrote down. This time it's mine, isn't it? If I do anything next time, I will make it clear to my sister-in-law first."

    Chu Yu nodded and finally calmed down, her eyes fell on Wei Yun's feet, she frowned and said, "Your injury..."

    "It's all right!" Wei Yun said quickly: "I was beaten by my brothers more than this in the military camp, minor injuries! Sister-in-law, don't worry!"

    Chu Yu sighed, she walked in front of Wei Yun, squatted down, and said helplessly: "Pick up your legs and show me."

    "This..."

    "The elder sister-in-law is like a mother," Chu Yu glared at him: "You are a child in my heart, don't think too much."

    Wei Yun didn't say anything, but he was still a little awkward, Chu Yu said angrily: "Hurry up, don't waste my money!"

    Seeing that Chu Yu was angry, Wei Yun finally gave up struggling, lifted his trouser legs, and exposed the wound in front of Chu Yu.

    The large bruises and the ferocious wounds made one's heart tremble. Chu Yu did not speak. She looked at the wound and said calmly, "I will let the doctor arrange a special wound. Medicine, are there any other wounds?"

    "It's nothing..." Wei Yun whispered: "There are only some wounds left..."

    Chu Yu nodded and said, "I see."

    Speaking, Chu Yu stood up and said with him: "Take care of your injury, I'll go back first."

    "Hmmm..."

    Wei Yun nodded, watched Chu Yu walk out with a cold face, and stopped her again: "Sister-in-law..."

    "Huh?"

    "You...don't be angry, okay? You said that if my brother knew that I was so angry with you, he had to beat me to death!"

    Wei Yun said in a panic, and the last "kill" sounded as if Wei Jun could really climb out of the grave and beat him to death.

     After hearing his words, Chu Yu felt a little helpless: "I'm not mad at you."

    She was angry with the **** who beat him.

    After listening to Chu Yu's words, Wei Yun's heart relaxed a lot, and only then did she say goodbye to Chu Yu.

    After Chu Yu went out, she called Changyue over and instructed: "You ask that jailer to write down all those who beat Wei Yun, no matter how much money you make, we will never give it up. He confesses it and asks him to remember his name."

    "OK."

    Changyue answered and went to the jailer guarding Yun. After Changyue went out, Wanyue chuckled lightly: "Young Madam really protects her shortcomings as always."

    Chu Yu sneered: "Whatever you do, you have to pay the price. The Wei family hasn't collapsed yet."

    After Chang Yue inquired about the news, she handed over the list to Chu Yu, and the three returned to the mansion together. Chu Yu instructed people to keep an eye on the Yunlan County Master. As soon as he returned, the stalking people rushed back and hurriedly said, "Today's visitor went to the Yunlan County Master's Mansion."

    "Who?"

    Chu Yu hurriedly asked, and the attendant called her name: "Lu Minxing."

    Lu Minxing is Zhan Shi of the Prince's House, and has always had a close personal relationship with the Yunlan County Lord, so that the outside world has always rumored that he is the guest of the Yunlan County Lord.

    However, if you want to understand the level of the prince, it is not difficult to understand, where is Lu Minxing as the guest of honor? It was clear that the Crown Prince borrowed Lu Minxing's name to act!

    But no matter what, as long as the prince goes, it will be fine. After Tokauka is dyed, it will not go away for ten days, and the eldest princess has always been a careful person. Now that the eldest princess mansion and the prince are discussing marriage, it is impossible not to see each other for so long.

    Even if she doesn't see her, she will think of a way to get the eldest princess to find the prince.

    Chu Yu pondered and said, "Keep watching, especially the eldest princess' mansion and the prince's mansion, even more so."

    In the afternoon of the day when the prince went to the main mansion of Yunlan County, he went to the princess' mansion. It stands to reason that the princess should have made some moves, but there was no movement in this matter.

    Chu Yu couldn't help but feel a little nervous, thinking about which part went wrong.

    The eldest princess is domineering. She has raised more than a dozen faces, and she can't bear the grievance of her daughter being jealous. Now that she doesn't move after seeing the prince with Tokahka, what does it mean?

    Chu Yu couldn't figure it out, so people stared at it for three days in a row, and the more she waited, the more uneasy she felt. Feng Feng Huo Huo rushed in and said anxiously, "Young Madam, something big has happened!"

    Chu Yu suddenly opened her eyes, rolled over from the bed, and said coldly, "What's the matter?!"

    "Prince...Prince..." Changyue panted heavily, Chu Yu tightened her nerves, and heard Changyue say: "Prince was caught by the eldest princess from Princess Yunlan's bed and dragged to to the palace!"

    Hearing this, Chu Yu took a deep breath.

    She was wrong, she underestimated the princess. For the past three days, the eldest princess did not move. It seemed that it was not that she did not intend to move, but that she was disdainful of making small moves.

    The eldest princess was too bold to drag the prince from his cousin's bed and **** him to the palace.

    Chu Yu was stunned for a while, and then hurriedly said: "Quick, tell me carefully what's going on."

    "In the early morning of this morning, Lu Minxing visited Yunlan County's main mansion at night. When it was almost dawn, the eldest princess suddenly brought 200 dark guards and directly raided Yunlan's main mansion. Isn't the other courtyard of our mansion next to Yunlan County's main mansion, the medicine is so powerful, and the guards haven't recovered yet."

     "That's not the point," Chu Yu said while grooming, "What about later?"

    "Oh," Changyue returned to the theme: "The eldest princess personally brought people to the master bedroom of Yunlan County, saying that she wanted to destroy Lu Minxing, a disciple of Yunlan County's reputation. After they were caught, the soldier stepped forward and dragged the man directly off the bed. The eldest princess lifted the whip and whipped it. After two strokes, the eldest princess realized that something was wrong, knelt down on one knee, and pulled the man's hair up, wondering. , 'Isn't this my nephew, His Royal Highness? What are you doing here kneeling in a disheveled dress?'"

    Changyue held a long whip in one hand, imitating the appearance of the eldest princess, and showed a sudden realization: "Oh, it turns out that this Yunlan county master is not Mr. Lu Minxing in the account tonight. , but His Royal Highness? No, this is impossible. His Royal Highness is a loyal, benevolent and righteous person. He knelt down in front of this palace last month and made a promise that after marrying my son, I will not bear it in this life. My son only has His Royal Highness. One person, Your Highness will allow my son to spoil this life alone. Your Highness, do you remember this promise?"

     

    "Then His Royal Highness cried, begging the eldest princess to stop this matter. The eldest princess refused to give up, so she said to the prince, 'His Royal Highness, the Princess Yunlan is your cousin, you are one Your surname was born, and the matter between you and her is a matter of moral chaos. You are the heir, this is not a trivial matter, we still have to report it to the sage and see how the sage decides."

    "After she finished speaking, the eldest princess called someone and carried the prince and Yunlan county master into the palace. All the way, everyone heard about this and came out one after another. Onlookers, that one is crowded!"

    Changyue shook her head: "If I were the prince, I would have the heart to wipe my neck."

    "Be careful." Wanyue glanced at Changyue with dissatisfaction in her eyes.

    Chu Yu listened with relish, and when Changyue finished speaking, she hurriedly asked, "Is there any news in the palace now?"

    "No," Changyue said excitedly, "Right now, the entire capital of China is waiting for news from the palace. If we have it, we will know it as soon as possible!"

     After listening to Chang Yue's words, Chu Yu nodded in satisfaction. With a smile, she instructed the housekeeper to prepare another generous gift, and then she carefully groomed and waited to see the eldest princess.

     

     Hearing this, the entire capital of China sighed, and the crown prince is still very favored.

    However, Chu Yu seemed to have expected this result. She brought the prepared gifts and hurried to the long princess mansion.

    As soon as I arrived at the Princess Mansion, the butler of the Princess Mansion stood guard at the door. Seeing Chu Yu coming, the butler bowed slightly and said with a smile: "Young madam is here, our Princess Jing is here. It's been a long time.

    Chu Yu was a little surprised: "Princess knows I'm coming?"

    The housekeeper smiled meaningfully: "The princess knows everything."

    Chu Yu didn't dare to relax, so she hurriedly praised the eldest princess's intelligence to the housekeeper, and the housekeeper responded indifferently and led Chu Yu to the backyard.

    In the backyard, the eldest princess was wearing a golden dress and her hair was loosely draped. There were two beautiful young men standing beside them, one was shaking a fan and the other was pinching her shoulders. He saluted the eldest princess and said respectfully, "I have seen the eldest princess."

     "Okay, don't make up this fake stuff."

    The eldest princess played with the golden nails in her hand: "Last time you asked me to think about it and reply to you, isn't it for today? I agree to your conditions," she sneered: " You Wei family, I will save you."

     After hearing this, Chu Yu was certain in her heart, and this matter must be inextricably linked with the prince. However, she did not reveal the slightest such emotion on her face, she looked like she was grateful to Dade, and knelt down and said, "My concubine thanked the princess for her kindness!"

    The eldest princess laughed out loud: "Chu Yu, I think you are very interesting. You clearly designed something, let me and the prince jump into your circle, face to face. It's like I don't know anything, and I'm so grateful."

    Speaking, the eldest princess flicked her golden nails lightly, raised her hand to watch the brilliance of the nails flowing in the sun, and slowly said: "You don't talk like me, how did you find out? What about the prince and Yunlan?"

    The eldest princess said this, and then continued to pretend, Chu Yu also felt embarrassed. She simply sat down on the ground and said calmly, "There is no impermeable wall in the world. The Wei family has the method of the Wei family, and I also have my own method."

    "Princess," she looked up at the eldest princess and smiled sincerely: "You won't regret choosing the Wei family today."

    The eldest princess sneered, but she didn't care about Chu Yu's self-confidence, she just cast her eyes on Jiaohua not far away, and sighed: "It's a pity that you are so talented to marry. It's good to be widowed like me."

    Speaking, she took the wine from the beautiful man next to her, took a sip, and said slowly: "You asked Mrs. Xie to help you convey your request to His Majesty, you know why it hasn't been done yet. news?"

    "Because," Chu Yu said calmly, "Your Majesty doesn't dare to see me."

    "You have such a big tone." The eldest princess smiled, but not mocking, and said slowly: "However, it is true. If he is determined to give the Wei family a result, he will see you."

    Chu Yu nodded, the eldest princess played with the fan in her hand, and said leisurely: "You probably guessed why he hesitated. This matter is inextricably linked to the prince, although I don't know. What happened, but I also understand that His Majesty hesitated between protecting the prince and protecting the Wei family. The 70,000 army is gone. If this crime is placed on the prince, it will be too great. However, if it is placed on the guard In the body of Zhong, the deceased has passed away, no matter how the punishment is, where can the punishment go? Do you really want this whole family of loyal soldiers to be beheaded?"

    Hearing this, Chu Yu thought about it and said, "That's why Your Majesty doesn't want to kill my uncle now, and even wants to save him. But," Chu Yu frowned, "Why didn't he save him? "

    "What do you think, if 70,000 people is really a strategic mistake of Wei Zhong, as an emperor, but not angry or angry, what will the DPRK think?"

    "The courtiers will be suspicious of the truth of the matter. Since His Majesty wants to keep the crown prince, naturally he cannot let the court think so. So he has to take a good attitude. He can't take the initiative to let the Wei family go. There must be one Enough excuses."

    Chu Yu said hesitantly, "So what the eldest princess means... I have to give your majesty a step down?"

    "Of course." The eldest princess turned the fan in her hand, lowered her eyes, and looked a little cold: "If this crime cannot be escaped, your Wei family may wish to recognize it."

    Chu Yu didn't say anything, she frowned slightly, thinking seriously.

    It will be very difficult to admit the guilt and turn over the established case. If the eldest princess really offered a plan in good faith, then it would be a risky battle. But if the eldest princess wanted to harm the Wei family...

    Chu Yu took the Princess Qing's entire position on this matter seriously, watching her hesitant, the Princess also understood what she was thinking, raised the fan, lightly tapped it on her forehead, chuckled lightly Said: "Or, you recognize it."

    Chu Yu raised her head and stared at the eldest princess.

    This time, she understood the meaning of the eldest princess, Chu Yu recognized it, and Wei Yun recognized it, it was a completely different concept.

    Chu Yu is in Huajing, like everyone in Huajing and the emperor, she is someone who doesn't know the situation on the battlefield at all. She admits that it doesn't mean anything. In the future, a fluttering "I don't know anything" can easily turn the confession.

    But Wei Yun recognizes it differently. He is the only male of the Wei family today, and the only one of the Wei family who survived on the battlefield. Every word of his has enough weight.

    Chu Yu finally understood what the eldest princess meant. Now it is impossible for the emperor to release Wei Yun directly, because he needs the Wei family to admit this crime, he cannot let the world see that he is guilty, and he is determined to keep the prince. However, the emperor didn't really want to sacrifice Wei Yun, it was nothing to sacrifice the reputation of the dead, but if he really wanted Wei Yun to die, the emperor still couldn't be ruthless. In any case, the Wei family died for Da Chu, to defend the imperial family, and the emperor did not dare to let Wei Yun die.

    After all, the Wei family is a loyal minister and a good general. Whether it is for Wei Yun's talent or the loyal minister of his ancestors, the emperor can't really watch Wei Yun die.

    Besides, Wei Yun is young, if he is allowed to live and control the Wei family's power in the north, the emperor will be better able to control it. If Wei Yun dies, the Wei family will really suffer the grievances, and the remaining forces of the northern Wei family will fight back desperately. This is definitely not the result the emperor wants.

    So if Chu Yu wanted to save Wei Yun, he had to give the emperor a step, and give the emperor a reason to let Wei Yun go beyond legal principles.

    "I see."

    Chu Yu nodded, spread out her sleeves and bowed her head, touching the ground with her head, and respectfully said with the eldest princess, "I will go back immediately, take the tablet of my Wei family to the palace gate, and ask your majesty to summon him."

    I was worried that she would do this without looking for the emperor first. In the emperor's eyes, it was suspected of coercion. Now, it seems that the emperor needs this kind of coercion.

    Chu Yu looked up at the eldest princess and said sincerely, "At that time, I hope the eldest princess will deal with it for a while."

    "Don't worry," the long princess said with coldness in her eyes: "I will help you block the people from the prince's side. It's just that what the prince is doing now, you have to keep it in your heart, Remember it!"

    "Relax, princess."

    Chu Yu hurriedly said, "My Weifu will never forget what the prince did."

    The eldest princess nodded, she didn't say more, she seemed to be tired and narrowed her eyes slightly. Seeing that she didn't want to say anything more, Chu Yu retired.

    Back to Weifu, she called Jiang Chun over, Jiang Chun was replying to Liu Xueyang, now Liu Xueyang has settled down in Lanling, and asked how Jiang Chun was doing, Jiang Chun just finished writing the letter and listened to When Chu Yu came to find him, Jiang Chun hurried over and saw that Chu Yu was changing clothes, and said, "Where are you going?"

    "You ordered to go down, let the old and young of the house go with me to the ancestral hall to lift the spiritual seat, and kneel to the gate of the palace."

    Jiang Chun was stunned for a while, and asked with some doubts: "What is this?"

    "I talked to the eldest princess," Chu Yu lowered her voice: "Your majesty doesn't want to kill Xiaoqi now, but you can't come down to the stage, we'll go hand over the ladder to your majesty."

    Hearing this, Jiang Chun quickly reacted and nodded coldly: "I'll go right now."

    Speaking, she turned around and hurriedly entered the backyard. After notifying the upper and lower levels of the house to change into clean filial attire, she concentrated in the courtyard.

    When Chu Yu arrived at the courtyard, she saw Jiang Chun, Xie Jiu, Yao Jue, Zhang Han, and Wang Lan all present.

    Chu Yu didn't expect them to come too, so she couldn't help being a little surprised, but after a while, she smiled: "I never thought about this journey, but I can still have you all accompanying me."

    "The hardest road will accompany you," Xie Jiu said indifferently: "This last journey, why not walk?"

    "Let's treat us as unlucky." Yao Jue sneered: "What can we do with this dead ghost on the stall?"

    "It's all been kept until now," Zhang Han sighed: "Then let's stay for a while, if we can use our place, the young lady just asks."

    "Young madam..." Wang Lan said timidly, just as she was about to say something, Chu Yu said: "Liu, don't go, you still have a firm stomach, so you have to think about the child. ."

    "I'd better go," Wang Lan smiled bitterly: "He was where all the brothers and sisters were before his death, and he would take me wherever he went. Now, at this time, if he knew that I was alone Stay at home, I'm afraid I'll get angry. Then I'll stand by the side, and it won't be too much. "

    Chu Yu pursed her lips, Jiang Chun stepped forward and said, "If she doesn't go, I'm afraid it will be more difficult for her to settle down."

    Chu Yu thought about it for a while, and finally nodded: "The housekeeper takes good care of Mrs. Sixth Young Master."

    After finishing speaking, Chu Yu said to everyone: "Wait a while, after burning the incense and praying, I will go to the palace gate with the spirit seat and ask Your Majesty to put Xiao Qi back. Xiao Qi Ruo He is still in prison, I am afraid that people will stay there. Since I am his elder, I should protect him on behalf of the family, everyone," she raised her hand: "Go ahead."

    After finishing speaking, she led everyone to the front of the ancestral hall. After everyone burned incense and cleaned their hands, she led them to kneel in the ancestral hall. She was in the first row, and the remaining five young ladies were in the second row. In the second row, after a group of people raised incense and kowtowed, Chu Yu stepped forward, lifted Wei Zhong's spiritual seat, and asked the housekeeper to hold Wei Jun's spiritual seat and followed her, and the people behind took their husbands one by one. Son-in-law, wait until later, and take away the spiritual positions corresponding to their identities in order.

    One hundred and thirty-two people of the fourth Wei family, Chu Yu took the spiritual seat out of the gate of Weifu, and the others followed in two rows, white clothes like snow, only the spiritual card in his hand was dazzlingly black .

    They walked towards the palace gate in a mighty manner, and everyone looked at them wherever they passed.

    When they came to the gate of the palace, when they saw the white, the guards guarding the gate felt a little guilty. When Chu Yu came to the gate, the guards suddenly drew their knives and said in a voice. : "Who is coming?!"

    "Chu Yu, the prince concubine of the Marquis of Zhenguo, came with the four kings of life and death of Weifu, please see Your Majesty!"

    Hearing this, the guards looked at each other in dismay.

    "None."

    "Then," the commander hesitated, "Why don't you ask your Majesty to summon you to come back after being informed?"

    "If Your Majesty is willing to see her, why should she be like this?"

    Chu Yu raised her eyes to look at the honest and honest man opposite, and smiled slightly: "I know that it is difficult for adults to do this, and I don't want to embarrass adults, but to trouble them to report to Your Majesty," Chu Yu said, Holding the spiritual seat, he knelt down on his knees: "The Wei family is full of doors, if you don't see Your Majesty, even if you kneel here, you will become a stone in the wind, and you will not return."

    As soon as Chu Yu knelt down, the people behind him knelt down, a mighty large area, white clothes, black spirit cards, looking neat and tidy, rippling like a wave when he knelt down, shocked The heart trembles.

    The officer hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Then... let the officer report to your majesty."

    After the officer finished speaking, he turned around and entered the inner palace. The Wei family knelt on the ground like this. Wang Lan sat in the carriage, hugged Wei Rong, and looked out from the curtain. for worry.

      purpose light.

    The officer said he went into the palace to ask the emperor, but he did not come back after he went. But Chu Yu didn't care either. The reason she put on such a big stance today was to make the steps of the emperor higher. If so, the bigger the momentum, the better.

     

    In the early morning of the second day, ministers began to go to court one after another, but Chu Yu was still stuck at the gate of the palace. The first prime minister, Shu Lei, saw this posture, immediately lowered the curtain of the car, and said with the attendant: "Change the door, don't enter from here."

    The attendant was a little puzzled, and turned to look at Shu Lei: "Sir, why is this?"

    "The hero is here, how can I rush it?"

    Shu Lei glared at the attendant: "I'll just go through the side door."

    With Shu Lei opening the door, everyone went to the palace gate and took a detour until Mrs. Xie arrived, he stopped, and then came to Chu Yu.

    "Mrs. Wei..."

     Mrs. Xie sighed: "Why do you do this?"

    "The only blood of the Wei family is still in prison. As his elder sister-in-law, how can I sit safely at home?"

    Chu Yu raised her eyes and looked at Mrs. Xie. She had been kneeling all day and night, her face was a little haggard. Mrs. Xie opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end she just said, "Sincereness is the best way to go."

    Speaking, he shook his head and walked into the palace through the palace gate with his hands behind.

    Chu Yu looked up at Mrs. Xie's back and understood what Mrs. Xie meant.

    The time to kneel is too short, and it is not worthy of this sentence.

    She closed her eyes and said nothing.

    No one above the court mentioned this matter, until the end, a young minister surnamed Chen from the Censor Station finally couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, the Wei family is now full of young and old. They are all kneeling outside, the Wei family is the loyal and fierce family of the fourth and third princes, even if Wei Zhong commits a heinous crime, he cannot treat such a loyal family like this!"

    Hearing this, Cao Xiong stood up and said angrily: "Sir Chen's words are too bad, seventy thousand horses are child's play, according to the old man's words, the crime that Wei Zhong committed today , even quarreling and exterminating the clan is enough!"

      Not to mention that Wei Yun has not yet confessed his guilt, even if he does, he should take care of his mother to the end before accepting punishment. This is the principle of human ethics, and Master Cao's thinking is too cruel!"

    Cao Xiong was furious when he heard this, and quarreled with Chen Yushi in court. However, the two of them are not really powerful figures. After arguing all morning, the matter is nothing.

    Chu Yu heard about this, and she knew that the more noisy and anxious this matter was in the court, the closer it would be to "satisfaction" with Your Majesty.

    Chu Yu was not in a hurry, kneeling steadily.

     

     

    On the fourth day, it rained heavily, and only half of the people were kneeling. On this day, the eldest princess also came. She got off the gorgeous phoenix car, glanced at Chu Yu lightly, and then patted Chu Yu on the shoulder.

    Chu Yu felt the torrential rain fell on her, and she seemed to be beaten by a daughter.

    She looked up at the eldest princess with difficulty, but the eldest princess smiled and said, "Don't worry, Wei Yun will be back soon."

    Speaking, she raised her hand to straighten her clothes, and raised her hand to tuck her hair behind her ears.

    "The battle that this palace is going to fight has never been lost!"
