Chapter 2262: A confused Ying Hao
At Luoyang, Tongfu Inn, a group of diners were having a heated discussion.
“Hey, have you heard about the truth about the Guanzhong War?”
"What else could be the truth? The Tang army has already reached Luoyang City, how can our Majesty let Li Shimin go?"
“Hush, keep your voice down, the enthronement ceremony has not yet been held, and our Majesty has not proclaimed himself emperor yet.”
“Yes, before becoming emperor, it is better to call him King Qin.”
“Hey, it’s a matter of time, but the Guanzhong War will start, it must be because the Tang army reached Luoyang.”
"Yes, the King of Qin is about to proclaim himself emperor. Why don't you teach Li Tang a lesson so as to deter the other princes?"
"This is why you only know one but not the other. The Tang army's encirclement of Luoyang is indeed one of the conditions for sending troops. In fact, there is another reason."
"what reason?"
“This has something to do with Princess Li Tang, Li Xiuning.”
"Li Xiuning is also a beauty who ranks at the top of the Hundred Flowers List. It is said that she has countless suitors, but she doesn't like any of them. She has become an old girl and is still unmarried. But what does this matter have to do with her? She Haven’t you shown your face in many years?”
“Then do you know why he didn’t show up?”
"Why?"
“Because she gave birth to King Qin’s child, King Tang put her under house arrest.”
"What? How is this possible? There is a blood feud between the Ying and Li families."
“That’s right, Li Yuan, the father of the Tang Dynasty, was killed in the battle with Da Qin.”
“This is why you don’t understand. During the Yellow Turban Uprising, the King of Qin and the King of Tang were comrades-in-arms, and their relationship was so good that they almost became sworn brothers.”
"I have heard of this. At that time, the King of Qin and the King of Tang were indeed the main force in suppressing the Yellow Turbans. They were once called the pillars of the Han Dynasty after Jiang Shang and Wen Zhong."
“Although the King of Tang and the King of Qin were not sworn sworn sworn friends, it was a fact that they had a very good personal relationship. The younger sister of the King of Tang also fell in love with the King of Qin, and the two families almost got married.”
“Holy crap, it turns out there is such a thing, but what happened next?”
“Later, Emperor Ling granted Princess Wannian a marriage to the King of Qin. The King of Jin accepted the marriage on behalf of the King of Qin, and Li Yuan did not want Li Xiuning to be his concubine, so the fate between the two ended with a beating.”
“Hiss, it turns out that it was Princess Wannian who got involved, otherwise the King of Qin’s real wife might be Li Xiuning.”
“Don’t interrupt, go on, what does this have to do with the Battle of Guanzhong?”
"The relationship is serious. Although Li Xiuning failed to marry the King of Qin, he has already secretly promised her, and our King of Qin also likes Li Xiuning.
After the Battle of Dong, Tang Wang Li Shimin was captured, Li Xiuning went to Luoyang to negotiate, and two people who liked each other got together again. What do you think will happen? "
"Hiss, it turned out to be that time, but how dare this Li Xiuning? There is a blood feud between the Ying and Li families. She gave birth to King Qin's flesh and blood. Even if she is a biological sister, King Tang cannot tolerate it."
"Who knows, maybe this is love. Even if you know it is wrong and there is a dead end ahead, you will still do it."
“Hearing what you said, it feels quite touching. This Li Xiuning can be regarded as a hero among women.
"Let me tell you, our King of Qin is so charming. Which woman in the world can bear it? Even Concubine Ren, who was originally Emperor Ming, fell, let alone her Li Xiuning?"
"But if this is true, the children born to Li Xiuning are probably four or five years old."
"Yes, it was precisely because the child was older that his whereabouts were exposed. As a result, the king of Tang discovered him, and then he imprisoned both Li Xiuning and her son."
“So this is the Guanzhong War?”
"That's right, it was precisely because our King of Qin knew about the imprisonment of Li Xiuning's mother and son that he launched the Battle of Guanzhong at all costs. In this battle, King Qin not only wanted to shock the princes of the world, but also rescue him. woman and son."
"This is unlikely. The King of Qin is one of the rare wise kings in ancient times. How could he start a war just because of women and children?"
"How is it impossible? Let me tell you, the King of Qin is in his true nature when he sends troops. Women and children are in the hands of the enemy. As a man, how can you not take them back?"
“That’s right, King Qin did the right thing, so he should **** Li Tang. He dared to threaten women and children, which is simply despicable and shameless.”
"Yep…"
Looking at the people talking about each other, Ye Qingmei's face was full of gossip, and she pricked up her ears for fear of missing a word.
Guo Furong on the other side whispered: "Let me just say, the relationship between King Qin and Princess Xiuning is definitely not simple. Take a look and see if I am right."
Ye Qingmei's eyes lit up and she quickly asked: "Sister Guo, do you know any secret information?"
Guo Furong came over and said with a mysterious face: "It can't be said to be a secret. It was in Qixia Town that we met King Qin, King Tang and Princess Xiuning."
With that said, Guo Furong told Ye Qingmei exactly what she saw and heard in Qixia Town, but with added details.
After hearing this, Ye Qingmei's eyes were full of curiosity and asked: "So, Sister Long was also in Qixia Town back then."
“Yes, Concubine Long is the King of Qin whom she met in Qixia Town.”
“I’ll go ask Sister Long.”
Looking at Ye Qingmei's leaving back, Bai Zhantang was thoughtful, then frowned and asked: "Fu Rong, are there too many scandals about King Qin recently?"
“Hey, there have never been any scandals about King Qin.”
“No, something is wrong this time. It’s better to respond to the above.”
“Old Bai, how can it be so serious, huh? It’s not serious, is it?”
. . . . . . . . . .
In the meeting hall of Prince Qin's Mansion, Ying Hao is convening ministers to discuss important matters.
“My lord, the preparations for the enthronement ceremony have been completed and it will be held as scheduled when the time comes.” Jia Xuhui reported. "My lord, envoys from all countries have been accommodated in the embassy..." Zhang Yidao.
…”
After listening to everyone's report, Ying Hao nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Li Jing also fought well in Guanzhong. Maybe before he ascends the throne, I, the Qin Dynasty, will win another state."
“Congratulations, lord, congratulations, lord.”
Before the congratulations ended, the guards came to report.
“Report…to inform the lord, Jin Yiwei has important information and needs to report to the lord alone.”
“Let’s wait until the meeting is over.”
“But this information is very urgent.”
“That’s the case, let’s report it to the study room.”
)
After Qin Hao brought the Jin Yiwei people to the study, before the Jin Yiwei had time to report, another guard came to report.
“Report, report to the lord, the queen wants to see you.”
“Let the princess wait for a moment, I am temporarily unavailable.”
)
After the guards left, Ying Hao said to the Jin Yiwei: "Just tell me."
“No, it’s like this. There have been a lot of rumors in Luoyang recently…”
Ying Hao was not very interested when he heard it was a rumor. After all, how big could the problem of rumors be? However, he was still prepared to listen patiently to the end, but the guard barged in again after hearing halfway through.
“report…”
"what happened again?"
“Queen, queen, she...”
“What’s wrong with her? Didn’t you ask her to wait?”
“The queen forced her way in.”
"What?"
bump…
The study door was kicked open, and then Liu Mu walked in with a sullen face.
Looking at Liu Mu with a cold face, Ying Hao swallowed his saliva and asked nervously: "Mu'er, what do you want to do?"
“I want to know the truth.”
Ying Hao was inexplicably panicked. When his secret secret was exposed, Liu Mu said, "Husband, what is going on between you and Li Xiuning?"
Ying Hao was stunned for a moment, feeling very dangerous and almost being deceived.
Ying Hao was reassured knowing that he was not exposed, but Liu Mu mentioned Li Xiuning, which made him even more confused.
"Mu'er, what are you talking about? What about Li Xiuning?"
"You are still pretending. Now the whole city of Luoyang has spread the news, saying that you two are in love with each other, but I have become a meddler in Wannian, and even said that the purpose of attacking Tang is to bring back their mother and son..."
Ying Hao looked at Liu Mu who was full of grievances and kept talking in confusion, and thought to himself: What the **** is this?
"Wait a minute, Mu'er, what did you just say? We sent troops to attack the Tang Dynasty to save Li Xiuning's mother and son? Who told you this? Whose child did Li Xiuning give birth to before she got married?"
“Pretend, keep pretending, besides yours, who else could it be…”
Liu Mu snorted coldly. What she cared about was not that Li Xiuning gave birth to her husband's child, but that people rumored that she was a third party between the two.
That evil girl Ren Hongchang couldn't defeat her, but Li Xiuning hadn't even started yet, so he wanted to frame her as the meddler? Just a dream.
Liu Mu has made up his mind that after Li Xiuning gets married, he must let her see the majesty of his head wife.
After listening to Liu Mu's story, Ying Hao was completely confused.
Li Xiuning was pregnant and gave birth to a child, and the child was my child. As a result, everyone in the world knew about it, but I was the only one who didn’t know?
At this moment, many thoughts flashed through Ying Hao's mind. Is this Li Shimin's conspiracy? Or maybe it's Li Tang's negotiation methods, etc., but I still dare not make a conclusion before it is determined.
If, if all this is true, the two children born to Li Xiuning are really Ying Hao's flesh and blood, then Ying Hao will definitely not leave them outside.
It is certain that only Ying Hao's family has changed their surname back to Ying, and he now only has three sons and five daughters.
For ordinary people, this number of children is not too many, and for the royal family, it is even less.
Ying Wen and Jia Yu urged Ying Hao to take more concubines every day and do more for the royal family. If they knew that Li Xiuning had given birth to two princes for Ying Hao at one time, you don't have to think about how the two elders would react.
Ying Hao comforted Liu Mu for a long time with kind words and swore that he did not know about it beforehand and that all this was Li Tang's conspiracy. Only then did he coax Liu Mu into peace.
It’s impossible not to coax her. Liu Mu is a great master. If she blows up, the palace will also blow up.
After Liu Mu left, Ying Hao looked at the Jin Yiwei and said, "What do you want to report? Go ahead and report."
…”
Jin Yiwei was about to cry but had no tears. He had already finished speaking to the queen, what else could he say.
