Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 886 The Ending (12)

When Song Wei left Beijing with Jinbao, he received a gentle letter from Fei Ge on the way, saying that King Cheng was just stripped of his title and demoted to Xishan to guard the imperial mausoleum.

After many years of husband and wife, Song Wei can more or less see the hatred and unwillingness in his wife's words.

Although cutting the rank is already the biggest punishment for the clan, but thinking that one of the children is only one month old, Song Wei's hand holding the creed is gradually tightened, and his dark eyes are secretive.

Staying at the inn that night, Song Wei wrote another letter after replying to Wen Wan, and spent a lot of money to ask someone to send it to Duke Lu's mansion in the capital.

It was Lu Pingzhou who received the letter.

Song Wei did not conceal his identity in the letter, he directly told Lu Pingzhou that he had instigated the people who stopped King Cheng's car on Changshun Street that day, and the purpose was to make King Cheng appear.

However, in the end, His Majesty only cut off the title of King Cheng. Although according to the law, it should be dealt with in this way, but those ten or so children are too innocent. Song Wei hopes that Lu Pingzhou can kill Zhao Ang. Once Zhao Ang dies, He has almost rushed back to the capital, and when the time comes, he will take care of everything.

After reading the letter, Lu Pingzhou curled his lips, stood up slowly, and burned the letter. Afterwards, he spread paper and ink and wrote back to Song Wei, saying that Zhao Ang would be killed. Let Song Wei go back and think about how to solve the current tension between the Song and Lu families.

……

Xishan imperial mausoleum.

It has been several days since Zhao Ang was demoted here. Although the group of hidden guards who are being trained is only a hundred people, the number is not large, but the transfer of the base does not happen overnight. Therefore, in the current imperial tomb, except for Zhao Ang, only Huang Lingwei and a Cui father-in-law.

As the previous chief executive, Eunuch Cui has several eyes and ears in the palace, and he has learned that Zhao Ang was dismissed and sent to Xishan because of disregarding human life.

The first emperor once revealed a word or two to him about the important task of becoming a prince's mansion.

At this moment, Zhao Ang was walking on the tree-lined path outside the imperial mausoleum.

Eunuch Cui came trotting all the way, when he saw Zhao Ang, he quickly bowed and saluted, but because Zhao Ang had already been deposed, it was difficult to address him anymore, so he had to call "Lord Zhao".

Zhao Ang stopped, a little surprised, "Eunuch Cui?"

Eunuch Cui was full of anxiety, "The slave has already heard about the case in the capital city. Prince Cheng has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders. How could you do such a thing of digging your own grave?"

Zhao Ang raised the corners of his lips, "If it wasn't for becoming a king's mansion, for Your Majesty, would you think I am willing to kill someone?"

Eunuch Cui frowned deeply, "Look at what you said, how can you become His Majesty even if you kill a child who is just one month old? Your Majesty will not take the blame for this."

"Then I can't tell you." Zhao Ang pulled back his gaze and continued to stride forward.

Eunuch Cui clenched his fist and followed, "Your Majesty sent you to Xishan because he hoped that you would repent before the Mausoleum of the First Emperor. Mr. Zhao, please don't disappoint His Majesty's painstaking efforts."

"Really?" Zhao Ang mocked with a smile in his eyes.

He killed so many children because he was nervous that His Majesty would transfer the task of cultivating the hidden guards to King Kang's lineage after learning that Shuo'er had a heart disease. , still entrust this important task to him.

It can be seen that the foolish little emperor has a deep trust in Cheng Wang's lineage, and a few humble lives are regarded as practice.

Eunuch Cui was very displeased with Zhao Ang's attitude. Although the other party didn't say anything, Eunuch Cui could feel the arrogance of lawlessness.

In the past, I only thought that this master was a restrained and stable person. I didn’t want to, but it was so chilling in his bones. Thinking of those children, the hairs on Cui’s back stood on end. He planned to go to Beijing and tell His Majesty about Zhao Ang’s performance. , this person has a bad mentality, in order to avoid troubles in the future, he has to arrange someone to watch him.

At night, Eunuch Cui stepped out of the imperial mausoleum when he saw Zhao Ang standing outside.

The other party seemed to have been waiting for a long time, his face was shrouded in darkness, and he looked even more eerie and paradoxical.

Eunuch Cui was terrified, he backed away uncontrollably, trying to calm himself down, "It's so late, why are you here?"

Zhao Ang raised his eyebrows, and the ferocious smile on his lips made people feel very uncomfortable, "Want to sue?"

"No, slave...uh..."

Before Eunuch Cui finished speaking, his throat was tightly locked by a big hand. All the unfinished words were pinched in his throat, unable to spit out or swallow.

He looked at Zhao Ang in disbelief.

This patriarchal prince whom he had praised in front of the late emperor, now took off his hypocritical mask, revealing his sharp and sinister fangs, like a beast that only eats human flesh.

Oh no, he eats people's hearts, eats the hearts of children.

Such a person must have ambition hidden in his bones, why didn't His Majesty order him to be executed?
It's a pity that I will die in his hands, otherwise I will report this matter to His Majesty in detail.

Just when Eunuch Cui thought he was about to die, he heard a feathered arrow flying from mid-air, and then pierced Zhao Ang's back with a "chi".

Zhao Ang let go of Eunuch Cui's throat.

Eunuch Cui was able to catch his breath, but because of lack of energy, his body collapsed and sat on the ground. Then, he saw the man who came under the moonlight. Xinbu, with a faint smile on his elegant and handsome face.

But this smile is undoubtedly dangerous.

When he saw clearly who was coming, Eunuch Cui froze.

Zhao Ang, who was leaning against the pine tree with a pale face, also showed an expression of disbelief.

It never occurred to him that the one who sneaked up on him from behind turned out to be Lu Pingzhou, the eldest son of Duke Lu's mansion.

Lu Pingzhou walked up to Eunuch Cui, bent slightly, and stretched out his hand towards him.

Some people seem to be gentle and elegant, but their eyes are more terrifying than murderous weapons.

Eunuch Cui knew a long time ago that the master of the Lu family is a secretive person, how dare he let him help him now, and he quickly got up, "Why did Shi, Shizi come to the imperial tomb suddenly, and suddenly..."

As he spoke, his eyes turned to Zhao Ang.

Lu Pingzhou smiled and said lazily, "Come get something for my grandson."

Among the children who were killed, Gao Hao from Yongding Houfu was Lu Pingzhou's grandson.

Without further words, Lu Pingzhou directly took out a pair of gut gloves and a shiny dagger from his sleeves, put on the gloves, turned around, and walked towards Zhao Ang.

Medicine was used on the tip of the arrow, and Zhao Ang's whole body was limp. He was already lying on his side at the moment, and the pain from his back caused beads of sweat to roll down his forehead.

Lu Pingzhou had a cleansing disease, so he didn't want to get close to him, so he called Eunuch Cui, "Please Eunuch, help me take off his clothes."

Eunuch Cui looked at the dagger in Lu Pingzhou's hand, and then at Zhao Ang who was seriously injured. In the end, he chose to strip Zhao Ang's clothes.

Zhao Ang seemed to realize something suddenly. When Eunuch Cui took off his robe, he struggled violently, his eyes staring as if they were going to pop out of his sockets, "Lu Pingzhou, what the hell are you trying to do!"

After taking off his clothes, Lu Pingzhou squatted down in front of him, pulled out the feathered arrow from his back, put the dagger on his chest and gestured, with a casual tone as if he was gossiping, "When you were a prince, you treated civilians Like nothing, now that you are a commoner, this son regards you as an ant, and I will take your heart to comfort the spirits of all children in heaven."

It was the first time in Cheng Wang's life that he could say murderous words so lazily and casually.

No matter how vicious he was, he still felt unprecedented fear in front of Lu Pingzhou. His body trembled unknowingly, and he said angrily, "You can't kill me! If something happens to me, His Majesty will definitely investigate, Lu Pingzhou , you just want to court death, and you want to drag the entire Lu family down?"

When Zhao Ang was speaking, Lu Pingzhou's dagger had mercilessly drawn a bloody seam on his chest.

The piercing pain made Zhao Ang unable to hold back a muffled snort.

Eunuch Cui had never seen such a bloody scene before, so he ran aside in fright and vomited.

Due to the effect of the medicine, during the whole process, Zhao Ang was awake for half of the time, soberly watching how Lu Pingzhou opened his chest bit by bit.

The more awake you are, the clearer the pain will be.

Watching a part of one's body being taken away, I'm afraid there is nothing more desperate than this in the world.

Fear swept over the sky, but Zhao Ang couldn't speak anymore, he could only see Lu Pingzhou's calm eyebrows the whole time.

When he was dying, he heard Lu Pingzhou whispering in his ear: "I find it very interesting to train secret guards for the royal family."

So, not only did he want to avenge his grandson, but he also wanted to take away from him the fat job of training the dark guard?
Zhao Ang stared, staring at death.

……

Zhao Ang's heart, Lu Pingzhou threw it in Xishan and fed it to the wild wolves. He asked Eunuch Cui to find hemp rope, tied Zhao Ang's body, and then rode on the horse, dragging him directly into the city.

Before King Cheng was sentenced to lose his title, although he deserved it, he still felt uneasy about the lives of so many children. Now he saw that Lu Pingzhou not only dug out Zhao Ang's heart, but also dragged the corpse into the city to parade the public and watch the people There was a lot of applause, and what's more, firecrackers were set off directly to celebrate.

"A good death! This thing that is not as good as a beast should never be reincarnated!"

"It's finally a bad breath."

"To eliminate harm for the people, the prince is mighty!"

……

After handing over Zhao Ang's body to the subordinates, Lu Pingzhou went directly to the palace to meet Emperor Xuan Jing.

Zhao Xi had already learned that Zhao Ang had been killed, and was very angry. When Lu Pingzhou came in, he picked up a teacup and threw it over.

Lu Pingzhou didn't dodge, he could bear it, his forehead was smashed, and he bled soon.

Eunuch Sanbao was terrified.

"Lu Pingzhou, you are so courageous!" Zhao Xi's face was livid. After Zhao Ang's death, the royal family's secret guards changed hands. Once the new master is unfaithful and has two hearts, he will definitely threaten the country. Knowing that Zhao Ang should die, but Zhao Ang can't die.

At least until he finds a new owner, Zhao Ang has to live well.

Lu Pingzhou lifted his hem and knelt down slowly. He didn't frown because of the injury on his forehead, and his tone was as calm as ever, "It's only natural to kill people to pay for their lives. Besides, Zhao Ang is just a common man. It is not an exaggeration, if His Majesty thinks that Zhao Ang has something to live on, then what he can do while alive, the guilty minister can also do."

Zhao Xi narrowed his eyes suddenly.

Lu Pingzhou's words made him wonder if the other party knew about the secret guard of the royal family.

As if he didn't see the suspicion in the young emperor's eyes, Lu Pingzhou continued: "Before the empress dowager's funeral, she gave the Lu family a decree, asking the Lu family's descendants to be loyal to the court from generation to generation, eradicate treacherous people, and protect the country forever. Your Majesty, the Su family His destruction was done by the criminals."

Although he hated the first and empress dowagers, he was very clear about right and wrong.

After hearing this, Zhao Xi was shocked.

He remembered that the Su family was brought down by a chess piece of the Queen Mother, but it turned out that Lu Pingzhou was behind it as a pusher?
If you push it back, then there are many things, and you will be terrified if you think about it carefully.

Zhao Xi knows the Lu family's loyalty better than anyone else, but Lu Guogong has already held two important positions in the Shenbing Division and the Liaodong Iron Mine. If Lu Pingzhou is given the task of training the royal guards, the power of the Lu family will be too concentrated .

Zhao Xi hesitated.

But at the same time he hesitated, he also knew that Lu Pingzhou was a very capable person, and entrusting the Royal Secret Guard to such a person, he might be able to take a step closer to reach the height of the Sky Eagle Guard.

After thinking about it for a long time, Zhao Xi asked him, "You said you were working for the Empress Dowager, if I want you to show your loyalty, what will you do?"

Lu Pingzhou kowtowed his head, "Whatever your Majesty says, the guilty minister will do."

Zhao Xi looked at him, one and two of the Lu family were tough, first there was Lu Guogong, then Lu Xingzhou, and now Lu Pingzhou.

"Yun's Sky Eagle Guard, have you heard of it?" Zhao Xi asked.

"I heard a little bit." Lu Pingzhou knelt up straight and said truthfully.

"I have a group of people in my hands, and I will give you five years now. If after five years, they cannot become the second Tianying Guard, you will come to see them. Do you have any objections to such a show of loyalty?"

"The guilty minister bows to the emperor for his kindness."

……

Wen Wan has always thought that her eldest uncle is very powerful, and this time Zhao Ang's heart-breaking made her even more admired, and she boasted for a long time in front of Zhao Xunyin.

Zhao Xunyin was sour when he heard it, "That's because your father is not here. If your father is here, he can make you more relieved."

Wen Wan is funny, "Mother misses father, right?"

Zhao Xunyin cast a sharp look at her, "How old are you and how old are you?"

Wen Wan held her chin, "It's not big, I'm not married yet!"

When this matter was mentioned, Zhao Xunyin was in a particularly good mood, "Take some time to go to Lu's house and talk about the two of you."

"That's true." Wen Wan nodded, "I'm going to get married, and my natal family has to add make-up, grandparents, uncle, Aunt Wen, and Lu Yanbin and the young couple. They are too few and they are too embarrassed to show their hands?"

The corners of Zhao Xunyin's mouth twitched slightly when he heard that his daughter was going to kill her.

……

The marriage was after Song Wei's filial piety expired, there are still two years to go, Wen Wan is not in a hurry, she first went to the Four Seas Inn to find Wen Shun.

Wen Shun recently inquired about a good shop in the dental shop, and was about to go to Wen Wan to have a look, when Wen Wan came.

"Sister, what have you been up to lately? Leaving me here alone, I thought you had forgotten that you have a younger brother." Wen Wen's fair little face was full of resentment.

The heart-breaking case was too horrifying, Wen Wan didn't mention it to him, but said: "Busy about getting married."

"Ah?" After Wen Shun was stunned, there was a bit of anticipation in his eyes, "Have you finally figured out not to hang yourself on a tree?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Wen Wan pushed his head away, "Is your brother-in-law that bad?"

"It's not bad." Wen Shun said: "Who told him to keep teasing me all those years, I just wanted to see you marrying someone else. The scene of him rushing to the capital to snatch a marriage must be very exciting."

Wen Wan secretly rolled her eyes, and said that she was regarded as a possession by someone without her knowing it many years ago, and she only mentioned a marriage, and someone would be jealous After a while, do you still want to marry someone else?Go dreaming in your next life!

Wen Shun looked at her, his smile was full of excitement, "Which nobleman has such a vision?"

Wen Wan smiled at her, "The young master of Song Zhai in Ningzhou."

Wen Shun's face suddenly fell down, "No way, you two are like this, can you still get back together?"

Wen Wan saw the word "boring" from his face.

Wen Wan: "The day I first came here, I heard your tone and looked forward to my reconciliation with him. What's the matter, how many days have you changed your mind?"

"At that time, my eyelids were shallow." Wen Wen snorted softly, "I have been in the capital for a while, and I found that there are many people who are better than him here. A young one, Doden."

Wen Wan felt that Song Wei, who was far away in Ningzhou, must have felt that he had been stabbed severely.

……

After confirming the shop, Wen Shun took Dongzi out of the Four Seas Inn the next day and settled in the backyard of the shop.

Wen Wan found a free time, got into the carriage and went to Lu Guogong's mansion, and told about the marriage between herself and Song Wei, which shocked the whole room.

Lu Yanbin twitched the corner of his mouth, "Isn't it, cousin, how old are you and still get married, is there such a saying?"

"I said yes!" Wen Wan smiled brightly, "When the time comes, don't forget to follow the courtesy."

Lu Yanbin choked on a sip of tea, and turned to look at Lu Guogong, who had an inexplicable expression on his head, "I said, why did my cousin suddenly have a second kiss on a whim, so she was waiting here!"

Those eyes were full of sympathy for his grandfather who was about to be slaughtered.

When Lu Guogong heard the words that Wen Wan and Song Wei were going to get married again, he was already in pain. As expected, the next moment he heard Wen Wan say, "I am a married man who follows my husband, and the dowry is for my husband." For the sake of the family, Sanlang likes his grandfather's collection, so don't forget to bring a few more with you when the time comes!"

Lu Yanbin looked at his grandfather's deflated look, and quickly covered the corners of his mouth with a folding fan, gloating over his misfortune, but when he met Lu Pingzhou's gaze, he coughed twice and sat upright.

Lu Guogong muttered in a low voice, "I don't think you're here to be a guest, but to ask for a bill."

With a gentle smile, "whatever you say is what it is!"

Wen Wan observed carefully, although her grandfather still had a straight face, when he heard that she and Song Wei were going to get married, his brows and eyes were obviously brightened, which showed that he was happy in his heart.

……

Stepping on the tail of April, Empress Dong Han gave birth to a pair of little princes for Zhao Xi.

When she found out that it was two boys, Wen Wan was taken aback, "Why didn't I get any news before?"

Zhao Xunyin spread her hands, "I never heard that the queen is pregnant with twins."

Wen Wan looked forward to it, "Your Majesty is impeccably handsome, and your majesty's appearance is also first-class. The little prince born by the two of them must be very cute, mother, let's go and have a look."

"Wait three times." Zhao Xunyin said, "On that day, even if you don't like it, someone from the palace will have to invite you."

On the day of Xisan, the palace was extremely lively.

Dong Han's biological mother, Mrs. Cao, entered the palace with Dong Han when she was eight months pregnant, and her sister-in-law, Mrs. Du, entered the palace today with the wives.

At that moment, after the wives greeted the queen, they sat down on the armchairs outside, fearing to disturb the queen, they spoke very softly.

When Wen Wan came with Zhao Xunyin, the wives got up and saluted.

Zhao Xunyin went straight to the room after being courteous, and then saw two nurses holding a baby and feeding each other, Cao Shi and Du Shi were sitting beside, Cao Shi was beaming with joy, while Du Shi lowered his head, thinking What.

The little baby was wrapped in a red swaddle embroidered with the blessing of the heavenly official. It hadn't grown much in three days, and because the twins were small in stature, they didn't have much strength, so breastfeeding was a bit laborious.

Dong Han lay on the phoenix couch, saw Wen Wan and Zhao Xunyin, and smiled.

Zhao Xunyin's mother and daughter bowed their knees and saluted her.

Dong Han said: "My family, there is no need to be too polite."

Zhao Xunyin asked her, "How do you feel, but what's wrong?"

Dong Han's originally bloodless little face was suddenly stained with a thin blush, "It was a bit painful when I was born, but it's much better now."

Zhao Xunyin sat down with Wen Wan, and said happily: "At that time, I only thought that the mother's belly was a little sharp, but I didn't expect it to be twins. Double happiness is coming, I want to congratulate the mother on the birth of a dragon child."

Dong Han shyly said: "Actually, after the fetal image was seated firmly, the imperial doctor told me that it was twins, but for the sake of insurance, I have not revealed it to the outside world."

In fact, she wanted to surprise His Majesty.

According to her mother Cao, His Majesty came to see her once when she was drowsy after giving birth, and has not appeared since then.

Dong Han knew that he was busy with court affairs, so he didn't have any complaints about it.

"It's a good thing to keep it a secret." Zhao Xunyin said: "Don't be afraid of anything, you are not the only woman in the harem now, and what should be guarded against must be guarded against."

After Zhao Xunyin finished speaking, he glanced at the bedroom and saw a lot of rewards on the long table beside him, so he asked, "Has your Majesty been here?"

Dong Han said: "I heard from my mother that my Majesty came down the night I just gave birth."

When Zhao Xunyin heard it, he immediately laughed and cursed, "This brat is too shameful, I'll go over and talk about him in a while."

Dong Han wanted to dissuade her, but her sister-in-law Du Shi answered the question, "Your Majesty is pregnant with twins and she kept it from His Majesty, so don't make His Majesty unhappy?"

Cao's face darkened.

Usually at home, she would turn a blind eye to how unreliable the eldest daughter-in-law was, but now in the palace, she is so blind!

Looking at Mrs. Du with a gentle smile, "The sister-in-law of the Dong family must pray hard and pray that His Majesty is not angry, otherwise all of us will suffer, and you, a sister-in-law, will not escape the blame."

Du Shi didn't expect Wen Wan to answer, he was speechless at the moment, his face was blue and white.

Wen Wan didn't bother to talk to her anymore, and after the nanny finished feeding, she and Zhao Xunyin hugged one outside for three rites of baptism, and when they came back, the two baby babies wrapped in the quilt blushed from crying.

Wen Wan coaxed her to be good one by one, and then put her to lie next to Dong Han. The little milk baby was exhausted, and fell asleep after crying for a while.

Zhao Xi didn't show up during the whole cleaning process, Zhao Xunyin felt that it was too shameful, so she sat down and chatted with Dong Han for a while, then took Wen Wan to Qianqing Palace.

Zhao Xi held the military newspaper from Northern Xinjiang in his hand, and when Eunuch Sanbao said that Princess Dachang and Princess Yong'an were asking to see him, he nodded to let him in.

The mother and daughter saluted Zhao Xi, and Zhao Xi gave him a seat, and then asked Father-in-law Sanbao to take down the military newspaper for Zhao Xunyin to read.

Zhao Xunyin's eyes lit up when he saw words such as a complete victory and class teacher returning to court, "I knew that he would not let the people down."

Wen Wan leaned over and glanced at her, and she also showed joy on her face, "Father wants the teacher to return to court?"

Zhao Xi nodded, "After the battlefield is cleaned up and the soldiers rest for a few days, the army will begin to return to Beijing."

The war between the two countries has been going on for so long, and it finally came to an end. Zhao Xunyin was happy, but she still did not forget her purpose of coming to see Zhao Xi.

Handing back the military report to Eunuch Sanbao, Zhao Xunyin put on the attitude of an elder, "The Queen's birth is such a big event, and today it's the third day, why doesn't Xi'er go and have a look?"

"I have something to do during the day, so I'll go there later." Zhao Xi replied casually.

Although Zhao Xunyin is Emperor Xuanjing's aunt, there are some things that should be said in moderation, and Zhao Xi will be unhappy if she talks too much, so she changed the subject, "Have the two little princes been given names?"

"Give me the full moon." It was still a calm attitude.

Facing Zhao Xi like this, Zhao Xunyin had nothing to do with it, so she just sat back and returned to the mansion with gentleness.

……

At night, Zhao Xi went to Yikun Palace.

Nian Chun and Xiu Dong were watching the night outside, when they saw His Majesty coming, they wanted to salute, but Zhao Xi stopped him and asked in a low voice, "How is the Queen?"

"Return to Your Majesty, Your Majesty has already rested." Nian Chun replied respectfully.

Zhao Xin hummed, and walked in.

Nianchun wanted to stop her, but Xiudong stopped her and gave her a wink, and then the two of them retreated quietly.

When Zhao Xi came to the bedroom, Dong Han was already fast asleep. She was lying on her side, her long black hair was loose, and a strand of it hung on the tip of her small nose.

Zhao Xi walked over and sat on the edge of the bed. Just as he was about to stretch out his hand to brush away the strand of hair for her, Dong Han turned over. Zhao Xi's hand stopped in mid-air, then stretched out towards the brocade quilt, and pulled it up. Pulled, covering her thin shoulders.

After sitting quietly for a while, Zhao Xi stood up and walked towards the cradle.

In the two cradles side by side, the two little milk babies on the left and the right are almost the same. Although they haven't grown to the point of being carved into jade, the appearance of falling asleep touched Zhao Xi's heart. Somewhere was soft, he leaned over, and gently caressed the soft faces of the two little guys with his warm fingertips, and the corners of his lips raised a curve that he hadn't even noticed.

Dong Han was in a light sleep, and when she turned over again, she opened her eyes dimly, and vaguely saw a figure beside the cradle. She panicked, fearing that someone would harm the child, she woke up in a jerk, and when she saw the figure of the man clearly, The worry on Dong Han's face turned into joy in an instant, "Your Majesty?"
