Chapter 118 Xiaoniang
The gate of Jinlan Palace is closed tonight, and no one in the palace is allowed to come in or out. Many people think that Concubine Hong is embarrassing the new Gu Guiren in the palace, and she doesn't want others to see her.
In fact, Gu Guiren was grilling fish for the red concubine in the yard. Today the emperor rewarded her with sea fish with less spines, and she was looking for a cook who knew how to cook it. Unexpectedly, after Gu Guiren heard about it, she volunteered, saying that she came from a small fishing village and knew how to grill fish.
Hongyu left it to her, leaving only a few close maids who knew the details, and asked other palace people to withdraw and guard.
The two of them were chatting while grilling. Tang Yue put in the peppers and the aroma instantly filled the air, making people greedy.
Kuyu praised, "It smells so good, I can't wait to try it."
"It'll be ready just a little while longer." She also grilled some vegetables, among the pasta These things cook quickly, so take them out first and give them to Hong Yu to taste.
After eating her food, Hongyu got closer to her and took the initiative to talk about his own affairs.
“You also listened to my story and wandered away from home. When you met Prince Duan, you thought you were a good man, but you didn’t expect that you were a bastard. He not only defrauded me of my body, but also wanted to defraud my family wealth. !”
When Hong Yu talked about this, he filled himself up with a glass of wine to drown his sorrows.
Tang Yue was curious, "How did you find out that King Duan was deceiving you?"
"It was all thanks to your master. That day I heard that King Duan was going to marry someone else, and I had a quarrel with him. , ran out of the house and met your master.”
Hongyu has been holding back in the palace for a long time, and has always wanted to find someone to talk to, but he is surrounded by either confidants who obey orders or palace people who cannot tell the truth.
She was so depressed that she finally met someone who was not so frightened and could speak a few words and told everything that happened.
After Hong Yu ran out of the mansion, she met Prince Rui who was waiting outside the mansion. He invited her to a tavern and said he would make a bet with her.
They bet whether King Duan is a mercenary villain and not worthy of trust at all.
He asked Hongyu to accidentally reveal in Prince Duan's Mansion that he had an astonishing amount of treasures from the previous dynasty, and he also gave her a real treasure from the previous dynasty's palace.
Duanwang was an upper-level figure in the Dashang Dynasty. He knew that there were indeed rumors circulating among the powerful: after the founding emperor and the generals entered the palace, they found that the entire palace was empty.
The treasures of the previous royal family disappeared. The emperor, concubines and clan members all committed suicide and died for the country. They failed to obtain the royal property.
As a result, the royal family of the Dashang Dynasty had to live frugally for decades and slowly accumulate wealth before they could build their own palaces.
Emperors of several generations would send secret guards to search for these treasures. At this moment, he suddenly heard the clues about the treasures of the previous royal family. His eyes flickered, and he calmed down for a second. This treasure must be his.
King Duan tricked Hong Yu into telling her what she had made up with King Rui before: she was from Jiangshui Town, and the treasure was under her house.
She also told King Duan his specific address, which King Rui also told her. There lived a trafficker of women and children, who had made a lot of money from their illegal business in the past few years.
The family bribed local officials, who turned a blind eye to their atrocities.
They also committed too many sins, and their children always died young and could not be raised well. Their 16-year-old son, who they managed to raise, also died of illness this year.
This family wants to find a ghost marriage for their son. It is too sinful to want to use a living person.
Hongyu went to verify in person that King Rui rescued these abducted women and children. He was convinced that this family was an accomplice of criminals, so he agreed to use this family of traffickers to set up a gambling game.
King Duan thought about it carefully. In the previous dynasty, Jiangshui Town was a retirement home for powerful people in the capital, and it was very close to the imperial city.
If you want to transfer dynasty wealth in a short time, this is the most suitable place. Such a large amount of wealth cannot be transferred to a farther place silently. It is easier to find a place to bury it nearby.
As expected, King Duan did not expect anything. He sent people to ransack the trafficker’s house that night. The family thought the government was too corrupt and wanted more.
He became so angry that he actually fought against the officers and soldiers. King Duan cold-bloodedly ordered his officers and soldiers to kill the whole family, saying that they were planning to rebel and killed them on the spot.
Then King Duan sent people to dig three feet into the ground to find the treasure, but they dug all night and found nothing.
Kuyu appeared at the scene the next day, feeling sad as he looked at the trafficker's mansion that had been turned into ruins.
Although he knew that the trafficker's family was unforgivable, King Duan thought in his heart that they were her family members, so he still acted cruelly.
Duanwang stayed up all night, staring at his men digging for treasures, but found nothing. He felt irritable and walked out of the ruins to get some fresh air. I saw Hong Yu standing at the door, and I was a little surprised. Why did she just come back?
Prince Duan put on a sad and helpless look, "Hong'er, I received a secret message saying that this family was rebelling, so I brought my men to search. I don't want to do that either."
Kuyu smiled sadly, "I wonder if His Royal Highness, Prince Duan, has found the treasure?"
King Duan quickly denied it. He still had some affection for Hong Yu, and he had some patience in fabricating lies:
"It's not that I'm looking for the treasure. This matter concerns the imperial court and is nothing to play with. I received a secret order from my father."
Hong Yu laughed: "His Royal Highness Duan Wang, I lied to you about that treasure, and this is not my home."
Duan Wang understood that he was being played, "Hong Yu, what do you mean by doing this?" "
"You are a ruthless villain just to see love."
"Do you know that you have harmed an innocent family like this?" King Duan became angry. No one has ever done this. How dare you lie to him like this.
“If this is really my family, aren’t our family innocent?” Hong Yu asked loudly.
King Duan took a step forward, "Don't think that I can let you go if you do such a thing."
"Have you finally taken off the mask of hypocrisy and warmth and revealed your true face?"
“Get her!”
King Duan ordered his men to capture Hong Yu, but unexpectedly, Hong Yu was so agile that hundreds of people could not catch her, allowing her to escape.
Only then did King Duan realize that Hong Yu was a martial arts master who could escape from hundreds of soldiers, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
If she was unhappy and assassinated herself, wouldn't it be easy to succeed?
After he returned to Beijing, he was not concerned with dealing with the matter of killing his family for no reason. He was also afraid that Hong Yu would turn around and take revenge, so he strengthened the guards of Prince Duan's Mansion.
He did not expect that Hong Yu would not retaliate at all. When they met again, the other party turned out to be a noble concubine in the palace, and he had to salute when he saw her.
Duanwang wanted to scold Hongyu. She has become his woman. How could she marry his father again? It was ridiculous.
But he was scolded by Hong Yu, telling him to respect himself and not to be disrespectful to the imperial concubine.
After that, King Duan also thought about embarrassing Hong Yu and making her father dislike her, so that he could take the opportunity to take her out of the palace, or kill her, at least not to gain his father's favor again.
But the people he sent failed, most of them died, and a few were still tortured in prison to interrogate the mastermind behind the scenes.
He was so busy trying to silence these people that he had no time to embarrass Hong Yu anymore.
A few months later, Hong Yu directly conferred the title of concubine and became the master of a palace, and Prince Duan could not take action.
Every time he saw his father and his former woman kissing each other, he thought that they had slept with the same woman.
Coupled with the guard's eyes that didn't dare to be too obvious but really changed, a sense of shame came to my heart, and I wanted to draw my sword and kill.
After hearing this, Tang Yue felt that he was indeed not as good at tossing as Zangxian. No wonder he couldn’t become the Young City Lord.
She poured a glass of wine for Hong Yu, "My sister has also been wronged and has to serve a man she doesn't love."
Hong Yu waved her hand, "It doesn't matter, I have a family history of hypnosis. The secret technique, every time the emperor spends the night, he doesn’t do anything with me, but he will feel that he has spent a good night.”
“And this secret technique can make the emperor sleep deeply and give him the best rest. , she was full of energy and energetic the next day, and she thought it was the effect of having sex with me, and she preferred to come to my Jinlan Palace."
Wow, then she felt that the emperor had really made a profit and was having an erotic dream. , she can also have a good rest, satisfy both body and spirit, and kill two birds with one stone. She also wants to learn.
