Dream of Red Mansions: Hydrating Crimson Pearl

Holding the sandalwood burner to smoke the bed curtains, a trace of anger rose inexplicably in his heart, and he shouted: "Didn't you hear what Eunuch Rui said just now? You're just messing around there, and seeing me upset, why don't you give it to me?" I'm going down!"

Concubine Li's temper has always changed as the weather in June changes at any time, Xiao Cui was so frightened by this yell, she hurriedly backed out.

Concubine Li felt her anger welling up, she overturned the carved wooden table in front of her in a fit of anger, and the crystal plate filled with fresh fruits of various colors fell to the ground, smashing to pieces, and there was a ping-pong-pong sound.The servants all knew that the master was like a runaway wild horse when he committed a crime, so they all hid quietly in the dark, no one dared to come over to persuade them, they were all afraid that Concubine Li might be used as a punching bag, you know In the past, there were already several court ladies and eunuchs who died because of this, and as time went by, these servants probably had a good grasp of Concubine Li's disposition. When you are out of breath, you are naturally safe.

"Who is it that made our precious daughter angry?" An old and steady voice came over.

Like a sedative, Li Fei immediately calmed down.

"Greetings to the prime minister!" Several maids in the outer room hurriedly greeted, and it turned out that Ouyang Song, the father of Concubine Li, had come.

Concubine Li hurriedly came up to her with a smile, and said, "Why did Daddy find time to come to my daughter in his busy schedule? My daughter didn't know Daddy was coming, so Daddy laughed."

Ouyang Song took a look at his daughter, this daughter was his favorite, and he had really spoiled her, so he said helplessly: "My father has warned you many times, this is in the palace, not in our mansion, you It's not always so arbitrary, you always look like this, how can the emperor like you?"

Concubine Li said: "Daughter must remember Daddy's teachings, you slaves, why are you still standing here? Why don't you hurry up and prepare good Biluochun tea for my Daddy!"

Ouyang Song raised his hand to stop it: "No need, I have something important to discuss with you in detail, why don't we go into the inner room and talk!"

Seeing her father's serious face, Concubine Li didn't dare to neglect her, so she led Ouyang Song around the main hall and came to the secret room behind.

After entering the secret room, Concubine Li couldn't wait to ask: "What's the urgent matter, why did Daddy come to the door so late?"

Ouyang Song said: "Now the front is tight, today the emperor has connected five urgent battle reports, all of which are for the emperor to send reinforcements to rescue!"

Concubine Li panicked and said: "This is terrible, if the front is tight, wouldn't the people from Xinjiang want to invade the capital?"

Ouyang Song laughed and said: "My silly daughter, you are really worrying too much. Why is your father expecting them to enter the capital?"

"What?" Concubine Li's eyes widened, and she couldn't believe her ears.

Ouyang Song said: "Do you think that without my help, the Xinjiang people can defeat our [-] troops so quickly?"

Hearing this, Concubine Li was even more surprised. Although she was arrogant and domineering, she had been married to the emperor for nearly eight years and had formed a deep relationship with him. Let her crown the queen's throne and rule the harem.She never thought that she would push this man, who has been in love with her for eight years, from the throne. She only thought that what her father and brother did before was to help her get the emperor's sole favor, but it never happened. Thinking of it, since the father and brother are thinking about the big thing of treason.

Ouyang Song thought that his daughter was frightened for a while, so he smiled and stroked his daughter's shoulder lightly and said, "My dear daughter, how frightened you are? Can you still trust me as a father? As a father, you never fight Fighting unprepared, without full confidence, I will definitely not tell you about it. From now on, you don't have to fight and meditate for the position of the mere queen. You won the country for your father, and the entire Great Heavenly Dynasty They all belong to our Ouyang family, except for the moon and stars in the sky, daughter, there is nothing you cannot do as a father, depending on what you want."

Every word Ouyang Song said was like a steel hammer hitting Concubine Li's heart. She knew that since her father said it, she would definitely do it. At this moment, she was a little at a loss.

Seeing that her daughter was silent all the time, Ouyang Song thought it was because she couldn't accept this shocking change at the moment, and said: "My daughter doesn't want to be a father either, and I haven't disclosed any information to you before, so you must be careful about this conspiracy. If not, you will definitely make a wrong move and lose everything, and you will probably die without a place to bury yourself."

Hearing the word 'death', Concubine Li shivered uncontrollably.He asked in a daze: "My daughter doesn't understand. The vassal king of Huijiang entered the Celestial Dynasty and obviously coveted the emperor's throne. How could he easily give up the throne to Daddy?"

Ouyang Song said with a smile: "My son can think about it in time. In fact, as early as 20 years ago, I had something to do with that feudal lord, but at that time his wings were not yet fully developed. Back then, Lin Ruhai led troops to strangle him, which almost made him die." His entire army was wiped out, and it was at this time that he went out in time for his father and saved his life."

Concubine Li asked, "Why did father save him?"

Ouyang Song said: "The first is because he saved my life, and the second is because I want to be the prime minister. Back then, Lin Ruhai was originally the candidate of the new department. After high school, he was appreciated by the late emperor. Under the sect of my opponent Zuo Xiande, daughter, think about it, if I let them win such great military exploits again, wouldn't the status of being a father be in jeopardy?"

Concubine Li said: "So, Daddy, you used a little plan to defeat your opponent?"

Ouyang Song smiled proudly: "My son is really smart. That's exactly what happened. The first emperor wanted to build a canal, saying it was for the convenience of transporting goods from north to south, but in fact he mainly wanted to take advantage of it. It is more convenient to travel around, but the national treasury at that time was not rich, and in addition to the long-term battle with the vassal king, the military supplies consumed by the [-] army were really astonishing. The king can't do anything anymore, so I want to use the money to prepare for the war to build canals, and God helped me. Zuo Xiande, who couldn't understand what the former emperor thought, just blindly asked the emperor to wipe out the vassals. Regardless of the late emperor's face, he was righteous and strict in the court, which made the late emperor Long Yan furious, and then saw the right time for his father, and set a trap for the old thief, who was demoted to the common people , and as a father, he sat firmly on the position of prime minister."

Concubine Li praised: "Father is indeed resourceful! But, is the feudal prince willing to be so obedient to you, Daddy?"

Ouyang Song said: "Of course he won't be obedient so obediently, so I used a tactic to delay the attack, making him think that I was bowing to him and helping him win the empire of the Great Heavenly Dynasty. He will take credit for his pride and let his guard down, and his army will be exhausted after a big battle, so I can take advantage of the opportunity to attack."

Concubine Li suddenly said: "Daddy will come to set things right when the time comes, his vassal king is just a reckless man, does he know anything about the affairs of our Central Plains, plus civil and military officials will definitely reject him, so Daddy takes action at this time It couldn't be better!"

Ouyang Song smiled and said: "Like a father, like a daughter, what a good girl said is right. For now, what we need to do is to try our best to stabilize the emperor, and try our best to prevent him from sending troops forward for reinforcements."

Concubine Li said: "This is natural, it's just that Dad, have you made an agreement with the vassal king, after he invades the palace in the future, he must guarantee my safety."

Ouyang Songdao: "Naturally, I don't need my daughter to worry about this. My father has already made careful arrangements. Before he captures the palace, my father will naturally send someone to take my daughter to a safe place. Then my father will naturally be obedient on the surface. The vassal lord proclaimed himself a vassal, and asked your elder brother to quietly prepare troops and horses. Your second brother should have received my letter in the past few days. His army must have set out by now. By then, we should cooperate internally and externally, and take advantage of the vassal king’s foothold. When he is not stable, he will be caught off guard."

Concubine Li smiled and said: "We have already taken advantage of the right time, favorable location, harmony of people, and father will definitely win a big victory."

Ouyang Songdao: "As a father, he has already seized the opportunity and is sure to win. The current emperor has no heirs, and the two emperor brothers are cowardly and incompetent. After the father put down the rebellion of the vassal king, he must have contributed a lot. Half of the courtiers in the hall belong to my faction, so it is no problem to ascend the throne for my father." After finishing speaking, he laughed wildly.

Li Fei looked at her father's arrogance, and at the same time her heart was filled with joy, she suddenly felt a faint pain creeping over her, and she knew why.She paused, but couldn't help asking: "Father, how do you plan to deal with the emperor?"

Ouyang Song suppressed his wild laughter, and said disdainfully: "The emperor still needs me to deal with it. The day the vassal king captures the palace will be the time when he dies."

"Death?" Concubine Li muttered these words, suddenly feeling a little shuddering.

"Good girl, what's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?" Ouyang Song noticed her daughter's gaffe, and asked with concern.

A thought quickly flashed into Li Fei's mind, that is, she must never let her father see any flaws, so she quickly smiled and said: "It's okay, maybe it's because I ate too much rose cake during the day, it was too sweet , I feel a little nauseous now."

Ouyang Song said: "You can't be careless, why don't you send the imperial doctor to see?"

Concubine Li said: "It's okay, I'll just rest for a while."

Ouyang Song saw Concubine Li's expression gradually changed.
