Since Wei Fengyuan died in battle, the situation in Shangjing has changed.
Emperor Ying Qian has been making frequent moves in private.
In addition to promoting Gu Fuju, he deliberately provoked a rift between him and Shunguogong Wei Fengxing on the grounds that there is no room for two tigers in one mountain.
The prince was sick and weak, so he secretly made a move to let the prince's party, the second prince's party, and the fifth prince's party fight each other in private and check and balance each other.
Emperor Ying Qian only wanted the ministers to bow their heads and listen to the flattery.
The old ministers in the court, such as Xian Guogong, Yangdu Hou, Xiupingbo, who were bold and often used rules and etiquette to restrain him as an emperor.
Emperor Ying Qian wanted to kick them all away.
Who knew that these people had already twisted together in private to pull him down from the dragon throne.
Water can carry dragon boats, but it can also eat dragon bones.
This country has never been an iron tripod, but water supported by everyone.
The emperor is unkind, so don't blame the water for splashing the tripod.
Two years later, the moat was filled with broken pieces of paper. When the people reached out to fish them out, they found that they were the memorials written by Emperor Yingqian's confidants after he ascended the throne, impeaching the
Prince of Yan and wishing to kill him. The Prince of Yan fought back to the capital.
In the bloody sunset, the head of the leader of the imperial guards patrolling the city gate was shot off by an arrow.
Tied to the arrow feathers were the fragments of the imperial edict that the Prince of Yan was demoted to a commoner and
the whole family was exiled. All the princes' factions were controlled. Who would have thought that half of them had already turned against the Prince of Yan?
Wei Fengyuan, whose black armor was stained with blood, slashed the palace gate with a knife beside the Prince of Yan.
After a fight, the loyal and brave Marquis came to support him. The white marble steps in front of the Golden Palace were finally stained with fresh blood again.
The ribbon of the imperial seal in the palace had been replaced with a brand new bright yellow.
The Prince of Yan stabbed Emperor Yingqian several times.
Wei Fengyuan: "Okay, dead."
Wei Fengyuan: "Don't be so bloody."
He said that, but his fingertips flashed with cold light. The crescent-shaped scimitar had sunk into the chest of Emperor Ying Qian, who had completely died. The blade moved very quickly, like tearing open a page of useless waste paper.
The heart was taken out and it was still beating briefly.
Wei Fengyuan sneered.
"People like him don't have a black heart."
But after an incense stick of time, Wei Fengxing, who should have been incompatible with each other, and Gu Fuju, who had become the Grand Tutor, bumped into each other in front of the palace gate.
Wei Fengxing was followed by old ministers.
Behind Gu Fuju were the new nobles in the court in recent years.
Wei Fengxing and Gu Fuju did not ignore each other as usual, but smiled at each other and walked side by side.
They finally waited until today, both came to invite the King of Yan to ascend the throne.
Wei Fengxing said softly, "In recent years, the whole Jin Dynasty has been crawling with termites. The new emperor must be very busy during this period. He has to clean up the rotten flesh of the old policies and patch up the holes under the eaves of the people before the spring news."
This is to break the old and establish the new, to seek benefits for the people.
Wei Fengxing: "I have some ideas here, I want to..."
Gu Fuju: "Thank you for your busyness, Duke Shun."
Wei Fengxing? ?
? What do you mean.
You have to be busy too!
Gu Fuju's always serious face had a smile: "I have asked the King of Yan for a leave of absence for a period of time."
Wei Fengxing was still as elegant as ever.
After a little surprise, he asked softly: "What is this..."
"To pick up my daughter.
" Gu Fuju was helpless: "I don't know if you will recognize me this time."
Duke Xian stared.
"You..."
"You have another child outside?"
Duke Xian: "Does Jiashan know?"
He was about to frown.
That person has always loved his niece Jiashan the most. If he knew that Gu Fuju had a lover outside after his rapid rise to fame, he would be very angry.
"You are so great now, have you forgotten that your father-in-law ignored the rumors outside and married his daughter off because he saw you as a good young man?"
"When you went to Dingdu to be the county magistrate, Jiashan went through a lot of hardships with you! She was such a delicate girl, and the
empress dowager loved her since she was a child. If I remember correctly, she was anxious to see you back then, so she was born prematurely in Ze... Ze County. I thought you were considerate! I didn't expect that you would dare to..." Gu Fuju: "Xian Guogong, I am going to Ze County."
He said word by word to let everyone know about Yaoyao's existence: "To pick up my daughter who was stranded outside and was harmed by villains and separated for many years."
Therefore, on the day when the new emperor ascended the throne, Gu Fuju and Jiashan set off.
But Yaoyao didn't know.
When Jiashan and Gu Fuju arrived day and night, she was looking at pearl flowers in the shop.
A stranger came to the alley again.
Jiashan couldn't wait to get off the carriage, glanced at the gate of the Yu family, and asked Gu Fuju anxiously.
"Is it this place?"
Gu Fuju: "Yes."
Jiashan: "Come and take a look for me. Is your hair messy? Is your body okay?"
Gu Fuju was helpless.
It was rare to see her nervous.
He was about to comfort his wife when he saw Yu Jingcheng carrying water out.
Gu Fuju hurriedly led Jiashan forward. Yu Jingcheng put down his work when he saw them.
Gu Fuju was about to bow but was stopped.
"Do you literati have so many rules?"
Yu Jingcheng smiled: "Didn't we say last time that the two families will be relatives in the future and should visit each other often?"
He said to Gu Fuju: "Thanks to you, you invited a doctor to see Master Sun's wife. Now she is well."
"Master Sun often mentioned you and said that he would thank you in person when he had the chance."
Gu Fuju said: "Last time you came and left in a hurry. It should be me who visited him and taught Yaoyao."
Yu Jingcheng was silent.
"That's really troublesome."
He often got angry and jumped up and down and scolded the traitor.
But after jumping up and down, he revealed in private that this child is smart, but all his cleverness is used to deal with him.
Yaoyao is really a lot of trouble.
Gu Fuju:...
I understand.
Yu Jingcheng looked at the jealous Jiashan: "This person must be..."
He didn't know how to address him.
Although Gu Fuju never stated his identity last time, Yu Jingcheng knew that he was either rich or noble.
When they met again this time, Gu Fuju's aura was much stronger than last time.
Gu Fuju smiled: "Brother Yu, this is my wife."
Ze County and Shangjing are far away, Yaoyao will have to go back one day to recognize her ancestors.
Yu Jingcheng invited the two in, and called Yu Niang, who was cleaning the house, to come and entertain the female guests.
"It's unfortunate. I didn't know you were coming. Yaoyao slipped out again. I'll go find her right now."
Gu Fuju stopped him and said, "We came in a hurry and didn't say hello in advance."
"My husband and I also have something to discuss with Brother Yu and Sister-in-law."
Upon hearing this, Yu Jingcheng understood.
"When are you taking her away?"
Yu Niang hurried out and heard Jiashan's voice.
Although Jiashan was anxious to see her daughter, she was very polite, not to mention that she had special respect for the Yu couple.
"My husband and I have only this one flesh and blood, and it has been a heart-wrenching pain to be separated from her over the years. Brother Yu, you and Sister-in-law only have Yaoyao as your child. You have personally brought her up from crying to the present, and you love her as much as we do. How can you bear to be separated?"
"Fuju and I are thinking of inviting the two of you to come to Beijing together. Your home is spacious, and we can merge our two families and take care of her together in the future, how about that?"
