Gu Xishan's injury has recovered. His hair is combed high and decorated with a Zhai crown. His facial expressions are different from the past. A chamberlain beside him introduced to Lord Ayang and the two angels that Gu Xishan was conferred the title of Concubine Wang yesterday. The Fifth Grade Zhimi Shang Palace, also known as the Waiting Shang Palace, is responsible for the daily life of the Queen Concubine and is the personal confidant of the Queen Concubine¡ª¡ª
So Gu Xishan has become a celebrity before the arrival of Princess Renmu. Zhang Yuan smiled and said: "Congratulations to Gu Shanggong. ////"
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????"Sir, I don¡¯t know how to repay your kindness."
Zhang Yuandao: "What about repayment? What you are today is also due to your loyalty and perseverance. I am also in awe of you."
Ruan Dacheng secretly wondered that this Pyongyang dancer who was seriously injured and dying had become a fifth-ranked palace official in the North Korean court. There seemed to be some ambiguity between the dancer and Zhang Yuan. Ruan Dacheng didn't know that the mute girl was Princess Zhenming. , otherwise it would be even more shocking.
Ling Yang Jun Li Shu was anxious for Zhang Yuan to convince Concubine Wang and asked: "Where is Concubine Wang?"
??????????????????????????????????????????????
Ayayang Lord Li Zhu, Li Cao Judge Yu Yan, Zhang Yuan, and Ruan Dacheng came to the west hall of Qingxi Palace. Qingxi Palace was a newly built palace last year. Lord Gwanghae had not yet moved in. After the coup, Ayang Lord Li In order to show his respect for Princess Renmu, he asked Princess Renmu to move from Qingyun Palace where she was originally imprisoned to Qingxi Palace.
More than a dozen palace people lined up on both sides. After a rustling sound inside the curtain, there was a clear cough. Lord Lingyang Li Zhu and Li Cao Judge Yu Yan heard this cough and immediately lifted their robes and knelt down. Li He said loudly: "My great-nephew, I respectfully wish to pay my respects to the royal concubine."
Zhang Yuan and Ruan Dacheng bowed, raised their hands to their eyes, and said loudly: "The envoy of the Ming Dynasty Zhang Yuan (Ruan Dacheng) pays homage to Princess Renmu."
A rather sharp female voice came from behind the curtain: "You two angels don't need to be polite, just watch your seats." The Chinese language is so blunt.
Then a palace maid brought a brocade tree and invited Zhang Yuan and Ruan Dacheng to sit down. Li Shu and Yu Yan stood up to wait on them. After a while, Gu Xishan came out and moved a brocade basket to invite Li Shu to sit down.
Behind the curtain, Princess Inmu expressed her gratitude to the two angels. When she talked about Gwanghae Lord Li Hui's crimes, Wang Fei immediately became excited and recounted how Li Hui killed her father, eldest brother, and youngest son. She has been in pain for several years. She would not be able to sleep or eat well if she did not sacrifice the heads of Guanghaejun and his son to her father, brother and youngest son
Li Zhu glanced at Zhang Yuan and nodded solemnly, which meant that he asked Zhang Yuan to persuade Concubine Wang.
Zhang Yuan then stood up and made a speech, saying that the urgent task of the current political situation is to stabilize people's hearts. If Guanghaejun and his son are killed, North Korea may fall into chaos, and it will be difficult for the Ming Dynasty court to agree with His Highness Ayangjun's unauthorized dethronement. This will inevitably cause The long-term political turmoil in North Korea has given Gwanghaejun's cronies the opportunity to instigate chaos
But I heard Princess Renmu behind the curtain say: "The widow will express her feelings to the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty. All the blame of the Celestial Dynasty will be borne by the widow and has nothing to do with Lord Lingyang."
Zhang Yuan was silent, Li Zhu, Ruan Dacheng, and Yu Yan looked at each other in confusion. The meaning of Princess Renmu¡¯s words was that she must kill Lord Guanghai. Concubine Wang, who was so consumed by hatred, could no longer reason. She only wanted to kill Lord Guanghai and his son to vent her hatred. As for the rest, just ignore it.
There was no sound in the other halls of Qingxi Palace, and the atmosphere was extremely tense for a while. After a while, Zhang Yuan said: "If Concubine Wang insists on executing Lord Guanghae, it will inevitably cause discord between the Ming Dynasty and your country. As an envoy to North Korea, Zhang Yuan, He will definitely be punished after returning to the country, so I beg Concubine Wang to think twice."
Zhang Yuan was kind to Princess Wang and Princess Zhenming. Of course, Princess Renmu had to consider Zhang Yuan¡¯s feelings. Concubine Wang behind the curtain was silent for a long time, but said: "The widow would like to say a few words to Zhang Angel."
When Lingyang Jun Li Shu heard this, he immediately bowed and said: "My grandnephew will leave for now."
Concubine Renmu Wang said: "You guys stay with Ruan Angel in the east hall for a while."
Talking alone with Concubine Wang would easily arouse suspicion, but since Concubine Wang had opened her mouth, Zhang Yuan could not refuse, so he immediately held his hand and stood respectfully.
Li Yan, Yu Yan, and Ruan Dacheng were guided down to the east hall of Qingxi Palace by the palace guards. The west hall was silent for a while. After a while, a continuous "crunching" sound was heard. When Zhang Yuan raised his eyes, he saw The low-hanging bamboo curtain was slowly rolled up, and I couldn't help but be surprised -
The bamboo curtain was soon rolled up to about half a person's height, and two women in white skirts were seen prostrating themselves on the ground. The woman in white skirts on the left folded her hands on the ground, gently lifted her forehead and the back of her hands, and said in a mournful voice: "The widow." ?"Little Ligustrum expresses gratitude to the angel for his great kindness -" she said, sobbing and weeping.
Zhang Yuan took half a step forward and quickly knelt down as well, saying: "Concubine Wang has broken Zhang Yuan's heart. Your Royal Highness, please get up quickly and help your mother to get up. Gu Shanggong, please help Concubine Wang to get up quickly."
Princess Zhenming also wore a white dress today. She no longer wore a man's bun, but a rich bun. She was as beautiful as a white magnolia. She knelt on the ground, raised her face, and glanced at Zhang Yuan with bright eyes, He bowed his head again and bowed, then stood up and helped his mother, Princess Renmu, with Gu Xishan.
Although Zhang Yuan did not look at it deliberately, the appearance of Princess Inmu was already in his eyes. This miserable Queen of Joseon actually had white hair. Although she was also combed in a neat bun, she was not as black as Princess Jeongmyeong next to her. The bun is in sharp contrast. Princess Wang's cheeks are thin and her face is as white as blood, but her wrinkles are not obvious. She is obviously not old, she must be under forty years old, but this white hair is surprising. Wu Zixu's hair turned white overnight. What kind of painful suffering did the princess Wang, who lost her husband, father, and son, go through before she turns gray?
Concubine Renmu burst into tears and said to Zhang Yuan: "If it weren't for the angel's rescue, the deceased would never see the light of day in this life, and even I, Privet Ming, would hardly see the light of day. The angel's kindness cannot be repaid by the widow's broken body."
Zhang Yuandao: "The Concubine Wang is an auspicious person. The subjects of your country are well aware of the injustice of the Concubine Wang. She was suppressed by Guanghai and will eventually break out. How dare Zhang Yuan take credit."
Zhang Yuan bowed respectfully and bowed his head. It was difficult to look directly at him, but Princess Renmu looked at Zhang Yuan carefully from a high position, nodded slightly, and ordered the other chamberlains in the hall to stay away for the time being, leaving only Gu Xishan and another person. The old palace man, Princess Zhenming, stood beside her mother.
Princess Renmu said: "The widow knows the contract between the angel and Lord Ayang in the Yellow Sea, but I don't know if the Ming envoy who will sit in Pyongyang to monitor the small country in the future is Mr. Zhang?"
Zhang Yuan replied: "There are prerequisites for guardianship of your country, that is, the slave chieftain invades Liaodong, but who will guardianship depends on the appointment of the Ming court. How can Zhang Yuan be good at it?"
Concubine Renmu said: "The contract states that our country will request guardianship from the Celestial Empire. If Jiannu really dares to invade Liaodong, then Lord Lingyang will ask the Celestial Emperor Shangshu to request Mr. Zhang to come to Korea for guardianship. I believe the Celestial Emperor will be kind." allow."
Zhang Yuan frowned slightly. Transportation was inconvenient these days. It took several months to go to North Korea. He really didn't want to take such a long journey again. Moreover, it seemed that Princess Renmu had other meanings in her words. He didn't want to. Deeply trapped in North Korea, the Supreme King of North Korea has no attraction for him. Jiangnan is his destination. He said: "If your country appoints Zhang Yuan to North Korea, Zhang Yuan will be impeached as an official, which is not beautiful. The person to oversee your country must be recommended by the Ministry of War and approved by the cabinet."
Princess Renmu was obviously disappointed. She looked at her daughter Zhenming who was standing next to her and fell silent.
Zhang Yuan thought to himself: "Lingyang Jun asked me to persuade Princess Wang not to execute Guanghai Jun and his son. This matter must be resolved today." Just as he was about to speak, he saw Princess Renmu saying: "Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, the widow is not ignorant of the benefits. If you are reasonable, please leave Gwanghae to the disposal of Lord Ayang."
Concubine Renmu smiled slightly and said: "But I want to see Guanghae and tell him his sins in person. Please tell Zhang Dacong to Lord Ayang. Lord Ayang is afraid that as soon as Guanghae enters Qingxi Palace, I will order him to be beaten." Kill."
Lord Lingyang Li Hui, Ruan Dacheng and Yu Yan came to the West Hall again. After listening to what Princess Renmu said, Li Huo ordered people to take Li Hui, Lord Guanghai, to Qingxi Palace. Li Huan wanted to have Zhang With the two angels Yuan and Ruan Dacheng here, Princess Renmu would not order the execution of Lord Guanghai on the spot.
About half an hour later, Gwanghae Jun Li Hui was personally escorted to Gyeonghui Palace by Pingshan Jiedushi Li Gui. The forty-three-year-old Gwanghae Jun was several years older than Princess Inmu and looked dignified. Once the lord of the country becomes a prisoner, the blow will be unbearable. At this time, he was escorted to the west hall by the chamberlain. His face was as expressionless as a walking corpse. He stood there with disheveled hair and empty eyes -
Concubine Renmu¡¯s originally pale face turned red at this moment, she stood up from the table and said sternly: ¡°Guanghae, you have this day too!¡±
Lord Guanghai turned a blind eye and listened as if he heard nothing.
Princess Inmok walked up to Lord Gwanghae and gnashed her teeth and cursed Lord Gwanghae. Zhang Yuan and others knew the pain that Princess Inmok had suffered, so it was normal for them to have such deep-seated hatred for Lord Gwanghae, but Lord Gwanghae As stupid as a fool, despite all the insults from Princess Renmu, he just stood there with his eyes turned to the beams of the hall, speechless.
Concubine Renmu was so angry with the scolding that she coughed and shouted: "Bring tea."
Gu Xishan held up a large porcelain pot, and Princess Renmu took it. Just when Zhang Yuan and others thought that Princess Renmu was going to drink tea to soothe her throat, an accident suddenly happened. Princess Renmu Suddenly splashing the water from the porcelain pot onto Guang Haijun's face, Zhang Yuan smelled the smell of lime. This was lime water!
King Gwanghae immediately covered his face with his hands and howled miserably. He first squatted on the ground, then fell to the ground and screamed, "My eyes, my eyes -"
Amidst Lord Gwanghae¡¯s screams, Princess Inmu laughed loudly and said, ¡°Gwanghae, I will spare your life, but I will also let you never see the light of day for the rest of your life!¡±
