Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 562 Ripples

Princess Dou first broke the silence.

She got the promise from the imperial concubine that Li Dai's matter would not implicate everyone in the Sui Palace, and she felt much more at ease.Although the news that Princess Pei brought back was frustrating, she could still calmly consider what to do next.She comforted King Sui: "Don't think about it too much. The imperial concubine said that there is no serious problem, so the king's punishment will not be too severe. The saint just wants to teach the king a lesson, and he will not put his life in danger. The prince should go back to the house to rest and restore his energy. He will go to the palace to plead guilty to the saint tomorrow. Anyway, the prince and his concubine should do their best. As long as the saint can be calmed down, Mrs. Guo Guo or It doesn't matter if anyone else talks again."

Sui Wang nodded with a dark face, and then looked at Princess Pei with a slow look: "Thank you for your hard work. It's A Dai's failure to live up to you, which hurts you. After the child is born, if you want to reconcile, our husband and wife There will be absolutely no complaints. If Ah Dai is not sensible, I will force him to sign a letter to release his wife."

Princess Pei said softly: "Uncle, you don't have to say that. Since the husband and wife have formed a mandarin alliance, it is natural to share the blessings and share the difficulties. The matter hasn't reached that point yet, so you don't have to worry too much. "

Even though she said that, from the fact that her address to King Sui changed from father-in-law to "uncle", she knew that her perception of Li Dai's husband was completely different.Even if she doesn't plan to make peace with him, she won't really regard him as her lifelong reliance anymore.

The hidden dangers of her former husband's family, the Zheng family, have been eliminated. It is said that the evil way has disappeared. The former in-laws were seriously ill, and the children and grandchildren were busy with the sickness or fighting for the family's property resources, so they had no time to pay attention to the pair she took away. children.She no longer needs to manage her virtuous reputation.The fetus in the womb is very likely to be a boy after the pulse diagnosis by a famous doctor.When he is born safely, she can live her little life with peace of mind.As for Li Dai?She didn't care at all, and she didn't have the patience to socialize anymore.

Li Dai was punished by the saint once, no matter whether he will lose the title of heir king or not in the future, everyone in the world knows the fact that he is an idiot.No matter what crime he will accuse his wife, stepmother, brother and others in the future, not many people will believe it.

Compared with remarrying after divorce, Princess Pei is more inclined to stay in the Sui Palace to be a virtuous clan wife, and it doesn't matter whether she has the title of princess or not.Now her father-in-law is not only her own uncle, but also feels guilty towards her, and will only favor her when things happen.She has a good relationship with her mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and stepchildren—not to mention Li Chujun and Li Yanjun, the Sui Palace is rich and comfortable, and it is a good home.In the future, she can also use the connections of the Sui Palace to escort the couple of sons and daughters surnamed Zheng...

Therefore, as long as the Sui Palace is not facing disaster, she will continue to stay in this house.Li Dai, the husband, will no longer be the source of her troubles.If he said any stupid words or did any stupid things again, she just had to ignore them.I believe that Sui Wang, the father-in-law, would know how to suppress the eldest son and prevent Li Dai from continuing to be stupid.

Princess Pei thought about this, and her words became more gentle and respectful, she was full of the image of a virtuous wife willing to share hardships with her husband's family, and was so moved that King Sui's eyes turned red: "Good boy, Ah Dai can marry a wife like you. It’s really a high incense in the previous life! If he can come back safely, I will tell him to respect you more in the future, and if he dares to make you wronged again, I will break his leg!”

Before he finished speaking, Concubine Dou interrupted him: "My lord, you don't have to be like this. You are still strong, so why rush to establish an heir? A-Lang was born because of my concubine. You are afraid that the eldest son will be wronged. He was specially granted the title of heir king for him. But looking at the entire clan, which family is not the older generation, and the younger generation will officially confer the title of heir king? There is no need for us Sui Palace to always rely on the holy The family members are those who make an exception, and now there is no such holy family member, so they simply follow the trend and don’t need to ask for the heir king, right? After the prince’s thousand years, who should take the heir king’s position is up to the sage. Maybe the prince's eldest son will be a little more scrupulous because of this, and he will be able to speak less nonsense in front of people in the future, and understand the benefits of being cautious in his words and deeds."

Concubine Dou just listened and didn't take it too seriously: "The prince can make up his own mind. It's getting late now, let's have dinner as soon as possible, and then go back to the house to rest. There is still business tomorrow."

"What kind of grievance is this?" Concubine Dou said with a nonchalant expression, "The most important thing is for the prince to be safe, and the heir should be safe as well. Although he treats me disrespectfully, I have raised him for decades anyway." , I always hope that he can live in peace. If he relies on no one can threaten his position as the heir, and foolishly does something that is taboo without knowing it, one day he will cause a catastrophe, and his wealth and life will be ruined. No guarantee, I feel uncomfortable seeing it, and I also worry that he will implicate my children." She sighed, "I don't know if there will be any changes in Wanzhi's marriage."

After appeasing the eldest daughter-in-law, King Sui said to Concubine Dou again: "When I enter the palace tomorrow, I will try to ask the saint to resign from the throne, at least to resign the position of heir king for Ah Dai. Maybe the saint will be willing to look at me On the face of this sincerity, treat Ah Dai lightly. At that time, the throne of heir will fall into A Lang's hands, maybe there will be complaints when Ah Dai returns, but..."

King Sui was moved again immediately: "But in this way, you and A-Lang will be wronged..."

These words are more convincing than Princess Dou, as a stepmother, who is really worried about her rebellious stepson.At least King Sui was very convinced and not angry at all.He held his wife's hand tightly: "Don't worry, Ah Dai is ignorant, and my husband will never indulge him again! In the past, my husband thought that making Ah Dai happy in everything he wanted was the best way to treat him. But now my husband Understood, indulging a son is like killing a son. If the husband had not indulged him too much, he would not be ignorant now. From now on, the husband only asks him to have a safe life and a prosperous life, and he should not touch other things Alright. He didn't have that ability at first, just being a wealthy and idle person quietly is a lifelong blessing."

Concubine Dou watched their conversation with a half-smile, her heart was like a mirror, but she didn't say anything.In fact, she was quite happy to watch her stepson's jokes.

King Zheng nodded his head.He felt that he knew what to do next, and he had courage again.

Concubine Pei, Li Jiu, and Li Lang got up to leave one after another.King Sui asked Li Jian to let him speak.Just now he gave up his eldest son's position as the heir king, so he had to explain to his eldest grandson.Concubine Dou left behind Li Lijun: "Follow me to the end, I have something to tell you." She also gave her son Li Lang a wink, Li Lang nodded knowingly, and left with a heavy expression.

Li Jiu walked the slowest.He looked back at the father and nephew who were beating and talking together, especially the pale and weak sick face of the nephew, and then at the back of the third brother who had just left, his heart beat a little faster.

The concubine said that the candidate for the heir is not determined for the time being, and after the death of the father, the king of Sui, the sage will decide who is eligible to be the heir among the three sons of the father.But the eldest brother Li Dai offended the saint, and it is impossible to return to this position in the future.Then the only ones who are qualified are Li Lang, another brother from the direct line, and him...

So what if it's a concubine?As long as he can please the saint, he, Li Jiu, still has a chance to ascend to the throne...
