Chapter 421 Fifth Brother! Won't You Kill Me?
"Father! I want to sign a non-aggression treaty with Dongchen and Nanjiang, so that there will be no war for 30 years and we can only develop agriculture and fisheries. How do you think?"
Ouyang Jing felt that as long as they talked about the matter sincerely, there would be no difficulties.
Doctor Du is the princess who protects the country of Dongchen, and the king of Dongchen will definitely not attack Wei. The royal family of Nanjiang came to them to buy muskets, and took the opportunity to propose a treaty that would benefit the people of both countries. I believe they would not refuse.
The emperor also thought of this and nodded slightly: "Okay, as long as you get this treaty, there will be fewer people in the court who oppose you and are dissatisfied with you. Jing'er! Go and discuss it with Ye Tingxiao, he will help you."
"Yes! Thank you for your support, Father."
The emperor waved his hand and said, "Father is old now. He will support you in whatever he can. Go ahead!"
Ouyang Jing quickly bowed and said, "I'll take my leave!"
As soon as he left, the emperor opened the hole through which Wei Hanyi and the King of Qi could be seen. Yesterday, the two of them had been arguing over a bowl of rice, and in the end the King of Qi won.
Wei Hanyi didn't get to eat, and not only cursed the King of Qi, but also cursed him as well.
The more he looked, the more disappointed he became. This person who used to be so noble and proud, so beautiful, so generous, so considerate, so gentle and so affectionate, now, for a bowl of rice, is even worse than a shrew on the street.
Is this human nature?
Looking at Wei Hanyi, who was dirty, had messy hair and dull eyes, the emperor shook his head and decided to go and see her after all.
He turned around and told Liu Xiaowu: "Open the door! Things that need to be settled must be settled, and people that need to be met must be met."
Liu Xiaowu did not dare to delay. He opened the door and accompanied the emperor slowly towards the courtyard where Wei Hanyi lived.
Wei Hanyi was originally sitting on the ground in the yard, but the moment he saw the emperor, he stood up.
She tried very hard to maintain her noble and proud image, but unfortunately she smelled sour and had gone hungry for several meals, so she looked very thin and could not support the demeanor she wanted to maintain.
"Fifth brother!"
She tried her best to recall how she had called the man in front of her in the past, hoping to use her soft and seductive voice to eliminate the hatred in the man's heart for her.
Unfortunately, the voice he shouted out was dry and hoarse. That was because he hadn't had any water for a long time and was hungry, so even his voice had become ugly.
The emperor stood in front of Wei Hanyi, with his hands behind his back, looking at her carefully. Without saying a word, he walked silently to a pavilion not far away and sat down.
The King of Qi came over and kowtowed to him: "Father! I know I was wrong. It was all caused by this hateful and shameless woman. I am also a victim!"
The emperor still didn't say anything. Liu Xiaowu looked at the King of Qi with contempt. Even if Wei Hanyi did something wrong, everyone had the right to criticize him, except the King of Qi.
This woman gave him everything she could. But when the truth came out, the King of Qi put all the blame on Wei Hanyi. This was the good son she gave birth to.
As expected, the bloodline of Beiguo Zi is unique, and he embodies the words "ruthless and ungrateful" to the fullest.
"Fifth brother! It's not what he said."
"What is that?" The emperor's tone was extremely calm, without any emotional ups and downs. "Wei Hanyi! Tell me, why did you lie to me? Why did you say that the son of the eldest prince of the Northern Kingdom was mine?"
"Because I had no choice!" Wei Hanyi knelt at the emperor's feet and cried, crying and telling, "The Wei family was destroyed, Hanyi was scared, and was thrown into the Jiaofangsi, Hanyi was desperate.
The eldest prince of the Northern Kingdom came to see Han Yi and said that he would find a way to take Han Yi away from Wei. Han Yi saw hope in his heart. But he was a Northerner after all, and it might not be easy to save Han Yi.
Later, the fifth brother came and took Han Yi away. The eldest prince of the Northern Kingdom had something to do in the capital, so he was in a hurry to go back and was unable to take Han Yi away.
Han Yi was ridiculed in the palace. Brother Wu, do you know how much hatred I have in my heart? If I stay with you, I am afraid I will be ridiculed for the rest of my life. "
The emperor agreed with her opinion: "You are right, and your calculation is right. If you want to go to the North, just go. Why did you lie to me?"
Liu Xiaowu felt it was an eyesore to see Wei Hanyi crying like this. She was old and ugly but still trying to imitate others with tears in her eyes. Was it fun?
"I didn't mean to deceive Fifth Brother. It was just that Han Yi found out that she was pregnant and the child was not hers, so she was very scared."
Wei Hanyi shuddered as she spoke, which showed that she was still afraid when she thought about it. Her twitching made the King of Qi shudder for no apparent reason.
"At that time, the eldest prince of the Northern Kingdom had become the Great Khan, and he sent people to find Han Yi. When we met, I used the child in my belly to start planning.
Originally, we were going to take the child away after it was born, but the child was too weak to be taken away, and we were afraid that he would die on the road, so we left him behind. "
After hearing this, the emperor fell into a long silence. No matter how Wei Hanyi sobbed, he didn't even glance at her.
After an unknown amount of time, he slowly stood up, turned his back to Wei Hanyi, and spoke slowly.
"Do you know how I felt when I saw your coffin placed in the palace?"
The question was too abrupt, and Wei Hanyi didn't dare to answer. The King of Qi stood aside and didn't dare to speak easily. He shrank his neck and reduced his presence.
"My heart feels like it has been ripped out. Do you know why most of the women in my harem have no children? I just don't feel like visiting them. I just wanted to stay pure for one person, but this is a joke."
After hearing the emperor's words, Wei Hanyi stopped crying. At this point, she knew very well that not to mention the emperor, even if a woman from an ordinary family did such a thing, she would not have a good ending.
She silently got up and sat aside: "Fifth brother! What do you want? Give me a quick death!"
The emperor turned around slowly and said, "Give you pleasure? Who can give me pleasure? The child I raised is actually a bastard.
You and your son have joined forces to seize my kingdom. When you were planning all this, have you ever thought about whether I would be happy?
If Doctor Du hadn't discovered the secret of the King of Qi, perhaps until today, I still wouldn't know that the King of Qi was not of the Ouyang family's bloodline."
"Doctor Du? How did he find out about me?" King Qi was shocked. "Did he find out in Liangjun City?"
The emperor looked at him and said, "You are not stupid. Liangjun City is the territory of the Ye family. They know everything you do in their territory. They know everything you said when you met with the Sixth Prince of the Northern Kingdom.
It's just that you haven't reported it to me. In Ye Tingxiao's eyes, you are no match for him. The fire gun was not developed by Dongchen Country, but by Ye Tingxiao.
If you hadn't framed the Ye family, maybe the affair between you and your son would have been exposed long ago."
The King of Qi was stunned, as if struck by lightning. He never dreamed that when he went to Liangjun City to see his brother, Ye Tingxiao would find out all his background.
After saying this, the emperor put his hands behind his back and walked away slowly.
Wei Hanyi was very surprised: "Fifth brother! Aren't you going to kill me?"
