Self-cultivation of Male Supporting Role

This night was terrifying for many people, because they had witnessed with their own eyes the scenes of the Tian family's husband and wife, father and son, and they knew too much, so they might lose their heads at any time.

Despite being more exposed, many people still broke out in cold sweats.

After the prince died from the emperor, he nodded slightly to the queen. In the sight of countless people, his back was straight and his expression was icy cold. Following the command of the Imperial Guard, the maiden brother of Concubine Xian had left the Palace of Supreme Harmony and never came back all night. .

Everyone didn't know if the emperor's heroic spirit was still floating in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Everyone's hearts were all up and down with the incessant fighting and shouting from the outside whistling wind, and the sound of swords and soldiers meeting up and down.

Some of the ministers kneeling below closed their eyes and pondered, some were calm, some were cold sweat, their faces were pale, and their bodies were shaky.

The queen was still sitting at the small table casually, ignoring the emperor who had lost his breath on the dragon bed, and ordered people to give seats to the ministers who were kneeling in front of them.

Several people got up from the ground, bowed their hands to the queen, and sat down silently, closing their eyes and resting.

The queen didn't care about the seemingly sloppy actions of the few people, and looked at her casually again and gagged her mouth. She could only look at her sixth prince with angry eyes.

She turned her head and said to a concubine behind her: "Sister, look, our Majesty's most beloved son is as boring as his old man."

The palace concubine calmly added a cup of tea to the queen, and her voice was clear, but everyone in the entire hall could hear: "It's just a villain who is greedy for life and fears death, and there is no need for the empress to take it to heart."

The sixth prince struggled violently by the stimulation of the two, but the soldiers behind him tightly clamped on his shoulders, not giving him the slightest chance to break free.

No matter how angry and unwilling the sixth prince is, the queen's eyes have been taken away from him and she will not take a second look. Such a person is not worthy of her paying too much attention, and her eyes are faintly swept away from the people kneeling in the hall. After that, he didn't say anything, but everyone in the hall already felt an invisible power.

At this time, no one will treat her as a woman anymore. Once in this position, regardless of gender, they are all equally high above, holding the life and death of others.

What's more, she has a son who has been a prince for many years and is about to inherit the throne.

This is also the reason why so many ministers have seen the scene of the Tian family's husband and wife with their own eyes, but turned a blind eye to the queen's actions, because the facts are already very clear, the person in power in the future will only be the prince, and It's not the queen, what she does is sometimes very important, and sometimes it's not so important.

The Empress knew the thoughts of these people, closed her eyes, and said indifferently: "Bring in all the other princes, as well as the pregnant concubine, and let them send your majesty on a journey to do their last filial piety! "

Two soldiers in armor came out immediately from the corner and led the way.

Many people were shocked on their faces, but they knew very well in their hearts. When the imperial power was handed over, eliminating all factors that could cause chaos is the quality that the superior should have. And listening to the empress, these people have long been controlled and waited outside the palace for a long time. , there is no room for others to speak out.

At this time, it would be stupid to rush to die.

In a few words, the princes have been brought in and kneel in front of the crowd very obediently, obediently showing filial piety to the dead emperor, although the heart is very happy with the scene at hand, but also try to show the sadness of the dead father on the face. , He was very obedient, it was obvious that someone was outside the hall and had already known what was going on inside. What's more, compared to shouting and killing outside, which is full of blood and makes people terrified, it is still more secure in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

At this time, someone reported to the Queen: "The good concubine, the concubine, refused to come in, saying that she was not feeling well and had a stomachache."

The queen didn't open her eyes, she waved her hand: "Let the imperial physician go and have a look."

After being tossed by the emperor to half-life, the Taiyuan Hospital was going out in person, and soon came in and told the truth: "The good concubine is in good health, and there is nothing wrong with it."

"That is, I don't want the child in my womb to be filial to the late emperor, to be unsympathetic to the emperor, to be unkind to the mother, and to wait until the child is born and send him to the emperor's mausoleum to guard the tomb of the late emperor, and don't come back in this life."

When the queen said this, there was no emotion on her face, there was not even a trace of anger in her voice, and her attitude was casual, as if she did not take a concubine who was pregnant with the emperor's child in her eyes at all.

What's even more shocking is that, with such an attitude, several ministers sitting in the hall did not move at all, as if they hadn't heard the terrible words that the queen had just said, causing some thoughtful people to die in an instant, and their hearts began to violently. Beating, the sound of regret and fear echoed in the chest cavity.

The sound of the seemingly invisible woman crying disappeared without a sound, and the hall returned to silence, and the ears were instantly filled with the sound of soldiers fighting each other, as if they could enter Taihe at any time. like a temple.

Some people are in a hurry, but unfortunately, the first few people who have spoken well have no intention of worrying at all.

Urgency is in vain.

Fortunately, it was near dawn, and it was the darkest time of the night. Many people pricked up their ears and listened carefully. All the sounds from the outside seemed to have disappeared, leaving only the rustling of leaves blown by the whirring wind.

When the first ray of sunlight shone through the windows of the Hall of Supreme Harmony on everyone's faces, everything was settled. In the eyes of many people, the immature prince who was only fifteen years old was dressed in armor, and his face was stained with blood. , where the dark armor passed, blood dripped down tick tock.

The exhausted minister kneeling in the hall smelled a strong **** smell, his breathing stopped suddenly, and he didn't dare to look directly. When someone walked by, he caught a glimpse of the place where the prince had stepped, leaving dark red footprints one by one. .

Then they heard the prince's hoarse voice ringing in their ears: "Mother, it's all settled."

Some people let out a long sigh of relief, some people couldn't stand it any longer and fainted directly to the ground, but no one from the surrounding palace dared to step forward to help them.

On this night, the entire capital was enveloped by the sound of hooves stepping on Suzaku Street and the chilling atmosphere. Every household closed their doors tightly and cautiously. Under the restraint of adults, ignorant children did not dare to cry easily, even if they occasionally cried one or two times. The sound quickly disappeared.

Du Shiyou didn't know that there were countless people guarding the safety of their family in the dark outside the Du's house. Listening to the faint shouts of killing from the direction of the imperial city, they led people to guard outside the courtyard of Shiyan all night.

The torches illuminated the whole yard as bright as day, and no one made a sound. Du Shiyou moved a chair and sat at the door of Shiyan, his consciousness fell into a drowsy moment.

Manniang, who came out to check the situation, quietly covered him with a big cloak, motioned people around him not to disturb him, and went back to the house with light steps.

When Du Shiyou woke up, he rubbed his eyes and found that there was a lot of light in the sky, and the guards who had been there all night were nowhere to be seen. Trembling, he wrapped his cloak tightly for two minutes.

"Go back to sleep when you wake up. The dark circles under your eyes are heavier than me."

Du Shi tilted his head, and saw his sister standing under the corridor with her hands behind her back, looking in the direction of the palace with an unpredictable expression, wondering what she was thinking. There is no doubt that what Fang Cai said must have been said by his sister.

So I habitually took a sentence: "It's not Amei, there is a sentence I have held in my heart for a long time, can you see the dark circles on your face? Don't take you to hide people like this!"

Shi Yan's eyes were still fixed on the direction of the palace, and he casually replied, "I'll see you soon."

What more did Du Shiyou want to ask, Shi Yan's eyes were taken away from the air, and he turned around with his hands behind his back and instructed him before entering the house: "Don't go to the Guozijian for the next two days, study hard at home, and wait for the Enke exam to show off your skills. Bar!"

Du Shiyou was completely awakened by a few words from his sister. In this Enke exam, either the emperor ascended the throne, or the prince was born, or the court suddenly lacked people. No matter what kind of situation, the meaning behind it was very terrifying. ok!

But Du Shi didn't have to wonder for too long. When the minister went to court, the entire capital moved, and the streets returned to the hustle and bustle of the past, and a message spread to everyone's ears at an extremely fast speed.

"Your Majesty is dead! The murderer who was poisoned to death turned out to be the ignorant Sixth Prince?"

During breakfast time, the family gathered at the dining table to listen to Aunt Zhang talking about the uproarious news from outside, and Du Shiyou was the first to feel that it was absurd and terrifying.

Although the reputation is not good today, it is well known that he favors the sixth prince for various well-known reasons. When I was young, I never came back on the road of dandy.

If he were alive today, the sixth prince would live a comfortable life and do whatever he wanted.

But today, the prince passed away, and the prince ascended the throne. With the soles of his feet, he knew that the new emperor would not unconditionally favor the sixth prince like the previous emperor.

This operation of the sixth prince is tantamount to digging his own grave. What the **** is going on?

Aunt Zhang was very honest and told everyone about the outside speculation: "I heard that it was because the Sixth Prince recruited guests while His Majesty was seriously ill, and His Majesty found out that the Sixth Prince was conspiring to do something wrong.

His Majesty summoned the sixth prince into the palace and reprimanded him for a few words. The sixth prince was unhappy and took advantage of his and his biological mother Liu Guiren's identities as the only two who could directly contact His Majesty, and poisoned the soup for His Majesty. The poison that seals the throat with blood, the person will be unconscious in less than half a cup of tea after drinking the medicine.

Yesterday, the imperial doctor in the palace was busy all night, and he failed to let His Majesty leave a single word. That sixth prince is also a cruel, unsuspecting white-eyed wolf. His Majesty is sorry for the people of the world, and he is not ashamed of their Liu family.

According to the time, in another half an hour, the Chang'an Order should widely issue documents, admonishing everyone to be filial to His Majesty. "

The family was stunned and thoughtful.

Du Shi had only one thought: the prince is really going to be enthroned, maybe he can really open Enke, how did the sister know? But don't say it's from night stargazing, see if I can believe it!

Father Du also knew in his heart that the news in the palace was not as simple as the folklore, but if the superior wanted to make everyone believe, everyone could only pretend to be deaf and mute, and there was no other way.

However, when the new emperor ascends the throne, amnesty is always the same as that of Kai Enke. Although the probability of amnesty is higher, it is not impossible for Kai Enke, so he urged Du Shiyou: "Eat quickly, and go back to your room to read a book after eating."

Du Shiyou looked at his father and then at his sister, feeling helpless.

When the whole family was thinking, it seemed strange that Mother Du had a sincere smile on her face. She was so sincere that she could not control her inner happiness. The gods have become different, and the light of hope flashes in his eyes.

Du Shiyou wanted to say something, Shiyan shook his head, pulled the person who didn't wipe his mouth after eating, and went straight out of the dining room, leaving the space inside for the husband and wife.

"Hey, little girl, I found that you are really like a warlock recently. Can you tell your brother about what happened before, where did you hear it?" Du Shiyou wiped his lips and approached Shiyan. whispered.

Shi Yan let go of Du Shiyou's hand, didn't speak, and walked slowly to his yard with his hands behind his back.

Du Shiyou followed behind and muttered, "The family has been weird recently. Fengshui is not good in this place in the capital. Nothing good has happened since I came here."

Shi Yan stopped, his slender fingers caught a leaf falling from the top of his head and held it in the palm of his hand. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "A good thing will happen soon."

Did Du Shi take it to heart, and said casually, "What a good thing?"

"A great deed."

After saying this, Shi Yan instructed Manniang: "Organize the things I embroidered last night, and I will give them away later."

Manniang responded with a trot and ran away. Du Shiyou thought of what he saw in the little sister's room this morning, and took a deep breath. He didn't know how to say it. Did someone push into the fire pit?

If you say it's ruined, it's really reluctant. It's just confusing.

Before Du Shiyou could figure out how to properly handle what the little sister embroidered this time, news came out from the palace that it was the fifth princess who asked Shi Yan to enter the palace to speak.

The whole family, including Mother Du, felt that there was something wrong with the news. There was only one emperor who died in the palace last night, and a prince was implicated. It was a time of chaos. It was wrong to let Shiyan enter the palace at this moment.

But there was no way, the carriage in the palace was parked there, and it wasn't like he planned to reason with them. Although he was soft and hard to the Du family, he was very respectful when facing Shi Yan.

Shi Yan got on the carriage and entered the palace under the nervous eyes of the family. As she expected, it was not the palace of the Fifth Princess, but the Queen's Ganquan Palace.

In the Ganquan Palace, the maids and eunuchs looked at the nose and nose, and performed their duties. They were busy but not chaotic, and they were very stable.

The **** Yu Chen personally greeted Shi Yan outside Ganquan Palace with a very respectful attitude. He also wanted to explain to Shi Yan why he appeared here as the servant of the Fifth Princess.

Who knows Yan as if he hadn't noticed this, nodded to him a little, and waited for him to lead the way.

Yu Chen was stunned for a moment, then turned around and bent over to lead the person to Ganquan Palace, and whispered: "This morning, the fifth princess is not worried about the maiden. I came here specially to greet you, and you can see it when you go in."

But he did not explain the reason for bringing people into the palace at this time.

Shi Yan didn't say much, and handed the thing in his hand to Yu Chen, and said in Yu Chen's unsure eyes, "For the prince."

Yu Chen was stunned again, shocked by the amount of information contained in Shi Yan's words.

He cautiously glanced at Shi Yan, and said tentatively, "Do you know all about it?"

Shi Yan didn't speak.

As soon as he stepped over a threshold under his feet, he looked up and saw the woman in Huafu looked a little tired, her spirit was abnormally excited, and she looked at herself with burning eyes.

Behind him, there was a fifth princess who lowered his head and looked out of the corner of his eyes and couldn't help but glance at himself. To be precise, he aimed at his own eyes and the queen's eyes. Although the other party tried his best to hide his shock, he was still stared at by Shi Yan.

As for whether the queen saw it, or whether the queen intended to let her see it, it was not a matter of Shi Yan.

Shi Yan very calmly gave the queen a junior salute, and by the way, the fifth princess didn't fall down. The frightened fifth princess moved away instantly and hurriedly returned the salute to her.

Shi Yan was amused by the actions of the Fifth Princess.

It was this smile that made the queen look at her from excitement, restraint, and depression at the beginning, to now loving, gentle, and the change in the middle was just a tea time.

The queen very naturally took Shi Yan's hand and walked to the table, and said warmly, "Good boy, I have suffered for you all these years."

Shi Yan was pulled by the other party, and there was no special feeling. His face was as calm as always: "It's nothing bitter or bitter, I feel happy myself."

The queen couldn't help but reached out and touched Shi Yan's face, her eyes filled with pity: "From today onwards, you won't have to do this anymore, Ah Yan should be the most beautiful woman in the world."

Shi Yan patted the other party's hand and said warmly, "You don't have to do this. If you gain something, you will lose something. I have been very comfortable outside these years, and I am very satisfied with my current life."

The queen stared into her eyes earnestly, and didn't find the slightest reluctance from it, not knowing whether to breathe a sigh of relief or sadness, she just held her hand tightly and didn't speak.

With just one face-to-face, the two knew in their hearts that the other already knew everything.

At this moment, there was a sound of shouting and killing from outside. The fifth princess did not even think about it and stood in front of the queen. Her face was pale, but her expression was determined. She swore to protect the queen to the death. The heartless knowledge is in stark contrast.

The mother and daughter looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. The fifth princess was attracted by the laughter of the two, and turned her head to look at the two of them for unknown reasons.

Soon the great **** Yu Chen came in and reported: "All the remnants of the sixth prince are taken."

The queen slapped the table and said, "The six princes' remnants tried to assassinate this palace. The Du family is wise and prudent. They saved the life of this palace in danger, and passed on the decree of this palace. From now on, this palace will accept Du Shiyan as a righteous daughter. , canonized the eldest princess, the fief of Luonan, and the three thousand food towns. It can be seen that this palace does not worship, and you will be rewarded with a token for entering and leaving the palace at any time, and a few gold and silver jewelry..."

The eyes of the fifth princess gradually widened during the empress's coquettish operation, and her mouth was so open that she could stuff a salted duck egg.

Gradually, it seemed that he finally calmed down and figured out something, and gradually there was a clear meaning in his eyes.

After the queen's series of rewards were finished, the fifth princess had returned to normal, smiling Yingying bowed to Shi Yan: "The fifth sister has seen the eldest sister."

Shi Yan accepted it calmly, and she accepted the gift with confidence.

She didn't refuse the queen's reward, or the same sentence, what she did for the queen and the prince, she could bear these rewards. Furthermore, the Queen obviously looked like she wanted to make amends eagerly. If she refused, the Queen would only feel more guilty and uncomfortable.

So Shiyan's feet hadn't left the palace. Du Shiyan, the owner of Xiaoxiuzhuang, was accepted as a righteous daughter by the queen because of his great success in saving the car. The matter of conferring the eldest princess and the sixth prince's unwillingness to assassinate the queen spread all over the capital at the same time. .

That kind of thing just happened yesterday. Today, inside and outside the palace are busy dealing with the emperor's funeral. It is only natural for the sixth prince's remnant to choose to do something at this time.

It is the legendary owner of Xiaoxiu Zhuang, who is famous for its superb skills and dark skin. Although the rescue is successful, this treatment is definitely the best treatment in the rescue.

If the queen simply accepts a righteous daughter, bestows the title of princess, helps to find a reliable man, and let her enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth, that's all.

But the meaning of the eldest princess is completely different. The eldest princess who has a fief and a food town has even more different meanings. This is not worse than the treatment of a prince. The fief of Luonan alone, because of its extremely important strategic position, is the life of the princes. The ideal and wealthy land that cannot be obtained.

The eldest princess knew Yan, and she jumped from a woman of the humble family to become a popular person in front of the queen, a new noble in the capital. In this early morning, it attracted the attention of almost all the people in the capital.

When Shi Yan returned home with several carts of gifts, the carriage with the gifts behind him almost blocked the alley.

The family stood at the door to greet them. They were already stunned by this development. They went out for a while and came back to be the eldest princess.

When Du Shiyou saw Shiyan, he only had one thought: what Amei said soon, a great good thing happened, and it really was a great good thing!

Du Shiyou didn't believe that his sister could suddenly figure it out. He felt that Shi Yan's mouth was really smart, and he made up his mind secretly that he would ask his sister to say more when he came back, and bless him to pass the imperial examination. By the way Finding a good daughter-in-law is much more effective than going to the temple to pray to God and worship Buddha.

He definitely didn't think of his identity as a real royal relative or even a princess. He only felt that his younger sister had a bad fate. Last time, he helped the people in the palace to stop disasters. He couldn't get a good word. The fifth princess, who was talking to her own sister, also didn't come to play often because of guilt, and only had people bring some things that you couldn't eat or drink.

Ruining my sister's life, I can't have the slightest resentment in my family, otherwise it will be disrespectful to the nobles.

Therefore, Du Shiyou was somewhat disgusted by the people in the palace.

He didn't care about what it meant to the Du family when his sister got the title of Princess Chang, he just rushed forward and asked Shiyan, "My sister, I heard that you were successful in rescuing cars, but have you been injured? Is there any discomfort?"

Knowing Yan was still as usual, he heard the words and said calmly: "Didn't I tell you to review at home? Why did you run out again? I don't focus on reading all day long, do you miss the feeling of eating bamboo shoots and fried meat in Fucheng? "

As he spoke, he pulled out a fresh branch from somewhere, pulled a beautiful sword flower in the air, and raised his chin towards Du Shiyou: "I picked it on the way, do you want to relive the old dream?"

Du Shiyou instantly remembered the days when he was slack in reading in Fucheng and was chased by his younger sister for pumping. With a pain in his back, he jumped and fled the scene with a whimper.

Shi Yan, Shi Shiran, followed behind, with her hands behind her back, holding twigs and whistling, she looked very comfortable, like a skilled hooligan, but now no one dared to take her as an illiterate hooligan. , the servant looked at her with awe.

Father Du looked at the backs of the two leaving with complicated eyes.

Son Du Shiyou has always been slow to react and don't think much about family matters, but he is different. After being shocked by the palace's generosity for a moment, he finally put all the previous doubts together, and suddenly there is a new guess.

If Shi Yan was originally a princess, then everything would make sense.

Father Du was frightened by his guess, thinking that he must go back to his wife and get an exact answer from his wife. With no expression on his face, he personally led people to move the reward, which had blocked most of the street, into the house.
