Chapter 261 Stubborn
The back hall is clean. Without those drunken prostitutes, it was also a 50-year-old male musician who came to play music. Li You likes to be luxurious. At the banquet of three people, he asked people to cook more than 60 dishes. Each person had a particularly long case in front of him, and two eunuchs were sent to serve him. If you want to eat a dish, you have to point it with your hand, and then the eunuch picks it up and puts it in the bowl, which is quite like the Qing emperor eating.
Originally, Qin Mubai didn't like this tone very much, but it was enough to think that he was Princess Gaoyang's own brother, and he only came once.
"Mu Bai, these are all famous dishes from the palace or Chang'an. What do you think?" Li You asked with a smile.
"Not bad, very rich. It's just too much. It's a waste if you can't finish it. Qin Mubai said.
"Oh, it's not right for you to say that." Li You smiled and said, "This is not waste, this is rich. God treats everyone fairly. Since he has given me such royal wealth, it would be a real waste if I don't use it.
Qin Mubai smiled and said, "Your Highness the King of Qi can think about it."
"This is not to be open-minded, but to send it backwards. I see through it and my heart is cold." Li You shook his head and curled his lips. That expression is somewhat similar to that of Princess Gaoyang.
It is also because of some shadows of his compatriot sister that Qin Mubai can bear the unworthy king of Qi in front of him. Seeing his bitter and sad look, Qin Mubai couldn't help laughing: "Your Highness, I can't understand what you said. Why are you so cold about your noble dragon royal family?
Li You smiled coldly and waved his hand. The eunuchs and musicians retreated. Then he said, "Mubai, you may not know. The most bitter person in the world is me.
"Oh, what do you say?" Qin Mubai asked.
"The reason is actually very simple, because I am an evil seed!" Li You gritted his teeth and burst out these words from between his teeth. After saying that, he picked up the glass with his eyebrows and drank a full glass of wine.
Qin Mubai couldn't help frowning: "Your Highness, you can't talk nonsense like this."
"Mu Bai, are you an outsider?" Li You stared at him angrily, "Aren't you sincere to my sister?"
"There is no way to start with this." Qin Mubai said indifferently, "My heart for Linger can be seen by the emperor."
"That's it." Li You said, "I only trust two people in the world. One is my uncle, and the other is my sister. You are my sister's favorite man, and sooner or later you will be his husband. I don't want my brother-in-law to treat me as an outsider.
"Of course not." Qin Mubai was very calm. He picked up the glass and took a sip and said, "Your Highness, if you want to say something, then say it. I, Qin Mubai, have no other advantages. These mouths have always been extremely tight.
"It is because I know that you are a real gentleman and a trustworthy man that I can trust my sister to you." Li You said righteously, "Otherwise, even if my father agrees to my mother's concubine, I, as a brother, will definitely not agree."
"Well, I know." Qin Mubai knew that he had a follow-up, but he just answered a sentence indifferently and listened to what he wanted to say.
At this time, Yin Hongzhi, who had been sitting aside without saying a word, said, "Your Highness, you don't have to beat around the bush. If you have anything, just say it to Mu Bai directly! You are all smart people, and naturally you know it.
"Good." Li You nobbed his head and said, "Mu Bai, do you know that my mother's uncle's family, that is, the blood feud between the Yin family and the royal family?"
"I know a little about one or two." Qin Mubai nodded and thought to himself: I knew you were going to get involved in this.
"Actually, it's not my fault. I have my father's blood. I shouldn't have taken care of the previous generation, that is, the resentment between my grandfather and my father. Li You said, "But I think so, but others don't think so."
Qin Mubai frowned slightly: "Who do you mean by 'other'?"
Li You was stunned and speechless for a moment. Yin Hongzhi hurriedly took over and said, "Your Highness is not referring to His Majesty, but some slanderous ministers around His Majesty!"
Qin Mubai smiled slightly: "Do you refer to Changsun Wuji?"
"Of course he is indispensable, but he is by no means the only one!" Li You punched the table a few angrily and said, "The blood feud between the Li family and the Yin family will be traced back decades ago. At that time, my mother was a teenage girl. At that time, my grandfather dug up the grandfather of the Li family and killed my father's brother. Later, my grandfather was defeated and captured, and dozens of people in the family were killed - only my mother was left behind.
Yin Hongzhi immediately took over and said, "No one knows the situation better than me. It's too miserable. No matter how the historians whitewashed it later, no matter how His Majesty covered the mouths of everyone, it could not change the fact that it was a revenge massacre. Although my sister later became the imperial concubine of His Majesty, at the beginning, the emperor took a fancy to her beauty and enslaved her for day and night out of the intention of reading and revenge! In this way, with His Royal Highness the King of Qi in front of you!"
"Mr. Yin, your words are a little superfluous!" Qin Mubai's face darkened and looked at him coldly. "Since it's an old thing, why do you turn it out and add oil and vinegar to explain it in detail? What exactly is your purpose? What's the good for him if you preach these things in Your Highness's ear all day long? Aren't you going to mislead him into the road and let him set himself on fire!"
After being robbed by Qin Mubai, Yin Hongzhi's face suddenly turned red, and he blinked his eyes and said, "This, this... I don't mean it!"
"Don't be excited, Mu Bai. Uncle is not malicious." Li You was calm and persuaded Qin Mubai instead. He said, "He is also just talking about Chen Xu's history, which is more or less related to my current situation. Why don't you listen to him finish his words?"
"Then you can go on!" Qin Mubai snorted coldly.
"In fact, these things are not confidential. Almost everyone knows, but most people dare not mention them." Yin Hongzhi continued, "In the next ten or twenty years, the world gradually forgot this bloody past, but how can I forget it? I will never forget the tragic scene when the Yin family was killed by the whole family! I don't know how Yin Defei has survived for so many years. She has to sleep with the enemy who killed her father all day long and has children for him... This is too tormenting! At the same time, I, the only surviving man in the Yin family, did not feel like sitting on pins and needles for a moment. But it's not because I'm afraid of death. I should have died as early as 20 years ago. I've already made money by living for 20 more years. I'm just worried that if someone doesn't forget this old hatred and is afraid of the next generation, it will be really a great tragedy!"
"Female yellow!" Qin Mubai couldn't listen any more. He shouted bitterly and scolded, "Mr. Yin, you can save people's belly with your own heart. That's all. What's more unbearable is that you imposed your own panic on His Royal Highness the King of Qi and pressed it on the Empress Yinde and Princess Gaoyang... Can you be more selfish? There is nothing wrong in the world, and mediocre people disturb themselves! With the power of the emperor, with the ability of the eldest grandson Wuji and others, if you want to speculate and eradicate, why do you have to wait until today? Your Highness, please forgive me for saying something very sad. If you keep listening to your uncle's messenger like this, sooner or later, you will have a bad thing! He can never forget the blood revenge of the Yin family, and even dream of revenge! But he doesn't have the ability to do so, so he has to incite demagogy to you! Needless to guess, since you became sensible in recent years, he has instilled this concept of hatred in your ear to divide the father-son relationship between you and His Majesty.
"Qin Mubai, you are too much!" Yin Hongzhi suddenly got angry and said, "I'm his uncle! I won't do any harm to him!"
Qin Mubai was not angry at all, but just sneered: "If it hadn't been for such a special identity as a cover, would you think Your Highness would listen to you? Since ancient times, you have been estranged. If you weren't his uncle, how could you be so persuasive to divorce a father and son?
"You, you! ..." Yin Hongzhi trembled with anger. You turned red and shouted, "Your Highness, don't listen to his nonsense!"
Li You's eyes rotated left and right, and his eyes became extremely cold. He not only had anger, but even murderous spirit!
"It seems that I said what I shouldn't have said." Qin Mubai smiled coldly, "Does that mean that I'm unlikely to leave easily today?"
"Mu Bai, it's a little strange for you to say that." Li You suddenly smiled and waved his hand and said, "Well, uncle, Mu Bai, don't quarrel. I know you are all for my own good. My uncle didn't mean any harm. He just wanted to remind me to live in peace and think of danger. I also understand what Mu Bai means. I will never be stupid enough to be right with my father. Thank you!"
"I know you won't. Because you don't have that strength, you won't have the courage. Qin Mubai sneered and said, "Whether you want to listen or not, there are some things I want to tell you, Your Highness the King of Qi."
"Well, please say it." Li You was calm and persuaded Yin Hongzhi, who was so angry that his face turned red, to sit down.
"There is one thing your uncle is right. For so many years, the Yinde concubine is indeed worse than death. Qin Mubai said, "So one day, he hanged himself."
"Ah? Why don't we know?" The two of them were shocked together.
"It seems that no one else knows except me and Yin Defei." Qin Mubai said lightly, "I remember that she told me at that time that she had never lived a day for herself since the day her family was destroyed. She was willing to serve His Majesty the Emperor because she didn't want to see your uncle, the last blood of the Yin family, be cut off. Later, she was pregnant with a child, and the child was you, His Royal Highness the King of Qi. For you, she must endure humiliation and live a heavy life. Admittedly, from the beginning, His Majesty the Emperor did take the Yin Defei into the room for some reasons unrelated to love. But later, he was indeed kind to Yin Defei, which can be seen from the fact that he made you king, doting Gao Yang, and making Yin Defei one of the four concubines second only to the queen. Otherwise, is it necessary for him to do this? There are as many women in the harem as cow hair. Why does the emperor treat an enemy's daughter so well?
"Therefore, it is a fact that Li Yin's two families have a feud. It's true that His Majesty treats Yin Defei and your brothers and sisters sincerely later. Also, Mr. Yin, isn't it a miracle that you can live to this day? Is it the emperor's usual means to cut the grass without rooting? Qin Mubai said, "Do you know why it's like this?"
"Why?" The two asked together.
"I also asked Yin Defei like this at that time." Qin Mubai said, "She told me that it took her 20 years to resolve the emperor's hatred for the Yin family. The way she uses is to love him deeply.
The two were stunned at the same time. Obviously, they didn't expect such an outrageous answer.
Qin Mubai smiled slightly: "It seems that you can't understand, but it doesn't matter. What I want to say is that this blood feud has become a thing of the past. Just imagine, didn't Mr. Yin's father also kill His Majesty's brother and dig his ancestral grave of the Li family? If His Majesty wants revenge, it only takes one idea to achieve it. Your Mr. Yin has been a ghost for 20 years. The reason why I have kept you so far is not to keep you for revenge, but to let you forget and eliminate this hatred with him as time goes by. In troubled times, who has no hatred? If it is passed down from such a generation, isn't the world full of endless killing? What's more, Yin Defei sacrificed everything in her life in order to resolve this feud and not to implicate the next generation. But you, Mr. Yin, always have a small face, nagging in his nephew's ear, planting the seeds of hatred in his mind. Compared with the two, you are not even as good as a woman! What's your face, in the face of the white silk wrapped in the face of Yin Defei's hanging beam? What does it look like to face her snowy white hair? What face do you still look like His Royal Highness the King of Qi and Princess Gaoyang's biological uncle? You are a narrow and despicable man. For the sake of your own personal hatred, you don't hesitate to seduce your own nephew to guide him. Are you still worried that the life of the Yinde Concubine is not painful enough?!"
As Qin Mubai said, he thought of the Yinde Concubine, who was far away in Chang'an and lived in the cold hall of Senguan. He was so excited that he scolded all the unpleasant words in his heart!
Anyway, Qin Mubai is not fearing about his uncle and nephews!
"Qin Mubai, you, you... you are bloody!" Yin Hongzhi's face turned white when he was scolded, and he pointed to Qin Mubai trembling with anger.
"You know it. I will never wrong you." Qin Mubai said coldly, "You specially invited me here today, which is nothing more than some unspeakable intention. Fortunately, you haven't said a lot yet. I'll block you back first. If you want to say something without a king or a father, please keep your mouth shut. If it's just a chat about wine tasting, I, a Qin person, will certainly be happy to accompany you.
Li You was obviously also angry. He was so angry that his neck was thick. But he didn't have an attack, but took a deep breath. Although his face turned red, he smiled. He nodded and said, "Yes, it is indeed a close relative that it is possible to say such straightforward words. Mu Bai, thank you for your unearful advice, just like a head stick, which makes me enlightened. I'm wrong. I really shouldn't let my mother's concubine's painstaking efforts for 20 years and let the hatred of the previous generation influence my emotions. In fact, I didn't mean anything else when I came to you today. I just saw that you have a good relationship with His Majesty the Emperor and the Prince. If it's convenient for you, please say more words for me in front of them. In order to avoid the bad news that I woke up one day and was exiled to Lingnan.
"Ling'er is my wife who hasn't passed the door. Your Highness is my future uncle. If I don't help you, who else can I help? You can rest assured about this." Qin Mubai glanced at Yin Hongzhi coldly and said, "Your Highness, if you really wake up, that's the best. What I said today is terrible. There is nothing you can do if you hate me. Since I have said it, I dare to bear the consequences of offending people. Whoever hides the evil heart with a honey-bellied sword, and whoever has malicious intentions will have time to prove it. Mr. Yin, it is clear at a glance who is close to you and your highness. Your Highness will definitely listen to you, not mine. Therefore, I persuaded Your Highness that I can't help scolding you. I hope you can understand - not how noble and sincere I, Qin, but the good intentions of the Yinde Concubine. If you are really an upright man, you shouldn't be so selfish. Well, that's all I said. I have been offended today, and I will plead guilty again in the future. Say goodbye!"
After saying that, Qin Mubai got up and walked out.Just now, I stood up, but I felt a violent dizziness, and I couldn't stand steadily. He staggered and turned around, pointed at Li You, the king of Qi, angrily, gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highness, King of Qi... You, don't do anything stupid!"
"I apologize, Mu Bai." Li You looked at Qin Mubai indifferently and said lightly, "That's it. I have no choice!"
Yin Hongzhi sneered: "As expected, you are really stubborn! - Don't worry, we are also good for you and Linger!"
When Qin Mubai heard this sentence, his heart became cold, and there was only one thought left in his mind - what a great eclipse!
At this time, he had no strength on his body and fell to the ground and fainted on the spot.
