Chapter 10 Mountain Rain

Let's not mention how the magic doctor carefully treated the night. At this time, Qiongjiang was not as calm as Liyi, but the wind and cranes everywhere. Although it is midsummer, the imperial relatives, officials and even civilians in Qiongjiang have a sense of bleakness that the mountains and rain are coming.

The ancestors have been in peace and mourning for three years. Other places are fine. Only Qiongjiang is the capital, and many pairs of eyes are staring at it. No one dares to abide by the rules and feast or celebrate at this time. People even keep a low profile in their daily lives. The whole Qiongjiang River is dead, and the weather is even more sultry. There has been no rain for many days, and the bluestone slabs under their feet are so hot. Only the tree knows the taste of sadness and screams for joy.

Anguo Wei Han took a lunch break this day, wearing a home-style blue river silk robe and sitting under an old tree in the courtyard to cool off. The yard was quiet, and the outside was quiet, and only the sound of cicadas on his head made him feel a little angry. He didn't expect that as soon as his family was revived, the emperor died. For a while, he didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing. Although the late emperor was ignorant, he still cared about some old feelings. He was about to say good things. At least he finally helped the Anguo Mansion again, although part of the reason for this was the "guard army" and partly because of Xue Zhen and his wife.

However, with his death, the ninth prince has not returned to Beijing. Although the eighth prince cannot ascend the throne in name and control the government in the end, if he really becomes the emperor, I'm afraid that the good days of his family will really come to the end. The eighth prince hates the ninth prince to the bone. It is well known that the girl of the Anguogongfu became the ninth princess. Naturally, she was a member of the ninth prince, and even she was hated by the eighth prince. It can be imagined how much the eighth prince spent in the previous tragic encounter of the Wei Mansion.

The more Wei Han thought about it, the more anxious he became. He thought that the ninth prince sent a secret letter from the day he left for the city. It was only seven or eight days, and it was time to arrive. He forced himself to stop being anxious. When the boat arrived at the bridge, it was natural and the plan was in the sky. Everything was still waiting for the Nine Prince and his wife, Huo Qiyue, Fang Chen and others to arrive in Qiongjiang, and then it was not too late to discuss it in the long run.

He was sitting alone when he saw his eldest son Wei Jue and his third son Wei Ying running in in panic. Wei Han frowned unconsciously. The two sons have always been steady and rarely show such an anxious appearance. I'm afraid something big has happened, right? Although he thought so, he still scolded, "What are you two running for? What kind of style is it? Is there something wrong with the old lady?

Wei Jue shook her head and finally gasped, "Father, father, Lord Yao is dead!"

Wei Han was shocked when he heard the words and suddenly stood up, "Which Lord Yao?"

Wei Wei replied, "Lord Yao Ye, the minister of the Ministry of Ceremonies."

Wei Han's heart jumped twice and sat down, "Lord Yao is in his prime, how can he die?"

Wei and Wei Jue looked at each other with a sad look on their faces. Naturally, Wei Han knew that Yao Ye would never die naturally. He publicly opposed the accession of the Eighth Prince in the court and insisted on waiting for the Nine Prince to come back to show the secret edict of the former emperor. Naturally, some people will not give up on him.

In fact, his words not only represent himself. The imperial relatives, nobles and courtiers of Qiongjiang are all planning to do this, but others are all falsely and entrusted with it. Only he is a man who stands out.

Da Yun's princes, families and courtiers are not fools. They know much more clearly than the people do what kind of sexual lovers the Eighth Prince is. Although the former emperor was mediocre and had some pity for his old ministers, he would not kill people casually without being provoked by others, but the Eighth Prince was different. Wen Tao's martial arts strategy is just ordinary. He doesn't have any hills in his chest, but he still feels very wise. In addition, he always can't tell the difference between decisiveness and cruelty, thinking that the British Lord must sacrifice the throne with the blood of others, which makes the ministers very shocked.

Are you kidding? If you support such a person to become an emperor, I don't know when the will to raid the family and destroy the family will fall on you. At that time, won't it be called every day?

As for the ninth prince, he was always suppressed by the noble concubine and the eighth prince's mother and son in Qiongjiang, and he could not see any special talents. However, after being assigned to the calyx, he did a lot of practical things. In a place like the calyxyi that birds do not shit, now also has an entry. The people live and work in peace and contentment, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers defending the city is obvious. Enhancement, it can't be said that it's not his ability.

What's more, there are "Jin Wuwei" and "Weijiajun" behind him. In the power struggle, those who can contact the military power are the final winners.

In fact, the Eighth Prince didn't understand such a simple truth, but he had no conditions by nature. Later, on the way to the throne, he was too obedient to Princess Li, but lost his own opinion. Although Li Guifei was fierce and shrewd, she was a deep palace woman with limited knowledge and wanted to pave the way for her son. Later, it seemed that she led the Eighth Prince to go astray more.

Not every palace concubine is determined to kill men like the empress dowager. If it hadn't been for the previous emperor, she would not have been wise all her life, and she would not have been angry to death by the noble concubine Li in the time of her old age.

It can be seen that the royal struggle is full of mistakes, which is the case with the Empress Dowager and the same as usual for the Eight Princes. If he loses one step, he will lose for a while, and if he loses for a while, he will even hand over the whole position.

"How did Lord Yao die?" Wei Han's lips trembled slightly, showing a tired and aging look.

When Wei Jue and Wei Jian saw their father like this, they became more and more sad.

Wei Jue sighed and said, "Last night, he was killed by money in the middle of his return, but this is too unreasonable. No matter how confused Lord Yao is, he will not die for a few money."

Wei Bie sneered, "It's just to make up a reason. As for what the truth is, who doesn't know Qiongjiang?"

He was also framed and imprisoned by his second brother Wei Yu and Xiang Yuan. When it comes to these plots to poison others, it is inevitable that he will be indignant. Although he is a concubine, he is also a rich man. The maid grew up like a phoenix, and she is competitive, which has always made Mrs. Ye and her father blue-eyed. And that day in prison was indeed the biggest stain in his life. Fortunately, his wife Qiyunjing never left, and his father-in-law Qi Zhan never gave up taking care of him and rescuing him, so that he could survive until the day when the grievances came to clear. Poor Lord Yao was also framed, but there is no future.

Wei Han suddenly heard this bad news, and he was angry and painful. The eight princes jumped over the wall and killed people's lives. Yao Ye was hurt, but to tell the truth, he actually had to pay such a big price. He slowly straightened up, "What did the outsider say?"

These days, because of the hot weather, he was a little unwell and relied on his two sons to inquire about the news.

When Wei Jue heard the question, she said to her father what she and her third brother heard, "Naturally, some people disdain and some people panicked. The third prince and the sixth prince still did not make a statement. Brother Yuer said that some nobles had been shaken, and let our family be careful to avoid being drawn from the bottom of the pot."

"My father-in-law also said that some of the more tiring ministers were not as resolute as the previous days." Wei Qian raised his eyes and looked carefully at his father's face. Instead, Wei Han laughed angrily, "Look, this is Da Yun's minister. He is just killing chickens and monkeys. They are actually afraid!"

Although he is old, polite and noble, his eyes are like blazing flames at this time. Looking at him coldly, he is quite similar to his eldest brother Wei Ye, who died in the country. At this moment, he suddenly thought of his eldest brother and his little sister-in-law and brother-in-law who died for the country. Why did they defend the country with flesh and blood and with their lives? Why should they be handed over to an ignorant and shameless villain and let him be ruined? If he allowed such a thing to happen, what face would he take to face his relatives under the nine springs?

"It's just the end of the crossbow, don't be afraid of him." Wei Han stood up and said, "He is so stupid and ignorant that there will always be a day full of evil."

He walked to the room, and Wei Jue and Wei Yu didn't know whether they should keep up or not. After half a day, he saw that Wei Han had changed into a full set of plain clothes by himself. He came out and saw his two sons still standing stunned. He suddenly shouted, "What are you still doing here? Why don't you go back to the house and change your clothes and take you two to Lord Yao's house to mourn for your father!"
