capital girl

Chapter 194
Li Yulou continued, "Shi Yu, do you think I'm unlucky or not? I was in a good mood after meeting the empress, and the empress even brought me some snacks, which I really like, but I met him instead. "

"He also asked me to tell you that he asked you to leave the fourth prince and join him, and he also asked you to obey others."

"The two brothers are really the same virtue, the same idiot."

"Okay, don't be angry, don't talk about them, it will affect my mood." Meng Shiyu took another piece of meat for Li Yulou.

Another two months passed.After Li Yulou and Zhou Ying's wine shop opened, the business was good.

After getting flustered, Zhou Ying's mood has indeed changed a lot, and she has almost returned to her original state.

Seeing Zhou Ying like this, Li Yulou was very relieved.

When she came back from the wine shop that day, she met Princess Anping who came to visit her at the door.

Princess Anping came with her daughter, and her belly was bulging again.

"You have a big belly, why are you running around? I'll see you again after I finish my work." Li Yulou stepped forward to support Princess Anping.

"When you go to see me, do you have to wait until the one in my stomach is as big as the current one?" Princess Anping glared at Li Yulou.

"It's not that exaggerated. The winery has just opened, and many things have not been on the right track."

"You opened the wine shop for your best friend." Princess Anping seemed even more jealous, "She only gave birth to one, and I'm about to give birth to a second one."

Li Yulou was speechless, "This is better than your husband."

"But why hasn't your stomach moved?" Princess Anping said looking at Li Yulou's flat stomach.

"Maybe God thinks that we are not qualified to have our own children, why didn't they give us one last time..." Li Yulou said with a smile, without any bitterness or discomfort in his heart.

It's good to have children, and it's okay if you don't have children. As long as she and Meng Shiyu have a deep relationship, there is nothing they can't handle.

What's more, they have discussed that if they have no children in a few years, they plan to adopt a few children.

Li Yulou didn't know what she was doing, but she didn't want to do it, she just wanted Meng Shiyu to like her more, this kind of strong desire made her unable to bear it at all.

"You have done so many good deeds, how could God not see them, but there will be in the end." Princess Anping comforted.

"It's really rare that the princess can comfort people..." Li Yulou teased a smile.

Princess Anping gave Li Yulou a white look.

Princess Anping and Li Yulou were drinking tea and talking in the room.

Princess Anping thinks that Li Yulou is a very good person and very interesting. The most important thing is that she is very independent and a very thoughtful person.

Princess Anping also hopes to become someone like Li Yulou.

However, she is not Li Yulou after all, and she is still different from Li Yulou.

Maybe everyone envies the things owned by people who are different from themselves.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have such an idea.

Although Princess Anping doesn't like to gossip like Zhou Ying, and gets excited when she talks about other people's gossip, Li Yulou has also learned a lot about the dignitaries in Beijing from her mouth.

"Your Majesty fainted again a few days ago, did you know that?" Princess Anping looked at Li Yulou and said.

Li Yulou shook his head, "Shi Yu seldom tells me about the affairs of the court."

"Your Majesty's physical condition is getting worse every day. But the fourth prince has no great talent, and King Yan and King Qin are eyeing each other fiercely, fighting to the death." Princess Anping sighed.

"Since Your Majesty has no intention of establishing King Yan and King Qin as successors, why didn't you put them in the fief?" Li Yulou asked curiously.

"Your Majesty would like to, but the situation is no longer allowed, because King Yan and King Qin already have enough supporters, his order may not be able to prohibit it..."

Li Yulou did not expect that things had developed to such an extent.

"Your Majesty will go to the imperial mausoleum to worship the ancestors in a few days, and I think he has to make up his mind." Princess Anping said.

"Brother Hong is in the Ministry of Rites. He's been very busy these days." Princess Anping pouted, showing reluctance.

"Although he comes home every day, I haven't seen him for several days."

Li Yulou chatted with Princess Anping for more than an hour before Princess Anping got up and left.

When Meng Shiyu came back in the evening, Li Yulou asked him if His Majesty was going to worship the ancestors.

Meng Shiyu said, "Your Majesty is going to worship the ancestors."

"Then are you going?" Li Yulou asked.

Meng Shiyu nodded, "Of course I'm going, and I have to write the words for worshiping the ancestors."

"It took several days to come and go?" Li Yulou asked.

"You don't want to go this time, it's a bit dangerous." Meng Shiyu was worried that he didn't know how to tell Li Yulou about this matter.

"Then I'm going even more." Li Yulou said, "We agreed that no matter how dangerous things are, we will face them together."

Meng Shiyu knew this was the result.

The day when the emperor goes to the imperial mausoleum to offer sacrifices is coming soon.

The matter of offering sacrifices was handled by the Ministry of Rites, and all preparations had been made in advance.

This time the scale of timing is very large.All officials above rank five in Beijing participated.

And for the first time in history, the empress followed the emperor to sacrifice.

In the past, the emperor always took the imperial concubine with him during sacrifices.

Of course, the imperial concubine was not spared this time.

The imperial concubine and the newborn little prince also marched towards the imperial mausoleum along with the sacrificial procession.

Although the Imperial Mausoleum is not far from the capital, it took two days to stop and go on the road because the team was too large.

Although Li Yulou followed Meng Shiyu to participate in the emperor's worship of the imperial mausoleum, she could not see Meng Shiyu, because Meng Shiyu walked with the officials of the Imperial Academy, and he was with the family members of the officials .

Meng Fangfei and Feng Ruhui even joined in the fun, and followed her to the emperor's ancestor worship ceremony.

"Aunt, why are you going?" Meng Shiyu and Meng Fangfei were sitting in the same carriage.

"It's dangerous to remember to be bigger this time, and I'm naturally following to protect you," Meng Fangfei said.

"How dangerous is His Majesty's ancestor worship ceremony? Didn't you see that there are guards everywhere." Li Yulou said.

"Silly boy, you don't know that people's hearts are sinister. Whoever tells you that the guards can't be bad people. Look at them walking side by side. This person may be King Yan, and that person may be King Qin."

Meng Fangfei lifted the curtain of the car window and showed it to Li Yulou.

"You see they are wearing the same clothes now, and they are comrades-in-arms. Maybe they will become enemies in a life-and-death struggle in a while, and this is the benefit."

"There are no eternal brothers in this world, but there are eternal interests..."

Meng Fangfei's words made Li Yulou feel that this world is terrifying.

"Auntie, you are wrong, it depends on the person, our family Shiyu is not like that." Li Yulou said.

Meng Fangfei,...

"But if I knew I was coming, and I didn't see Shi Yu, I wouldn't come." Li Yulou said.

"That's right, I won't use it if you don't come. How comfortable it is for us to lie at home and read a picture book." Meng Fangfei said.

"Aunt, what are your feelings for Young Master Feng? Do you want to marry him?" Li Yulou asked.

"I don't know, I haven't decided whether to marry or not, because people who have been married once are too disappointed. Marrying the second time requires many times more courage than the first time."

"What kind of courage does that take? Marry if you like, and pursue your own happiness."

"You're right." Meng Fangfei patted Li Yulou's shoulder approvingly.

Li Yulou looked at Meng Fangfei with a dazed expression on his face, thinking, this is how she persuaded her, and it was too easy to be persuaded.

They finally arrived at the imperial mausoleum.

The imperial mausoleum naturally has places where the emperor and empresses live.Li Yulou and the others were not so good, so they could only set up a temporary tent and settle down inside.

I spent the night resting in the carriage last night, and today I have to rest the night in the tent again. To be honest, I really suffered.

There was nothing to say all night, and before dawn the next day, Li Yulou and others were woken up, cleaned up, and prepared to participate in the ancestor worship ceremony.

The ceremony of worshiping the ancestors was a grand ceremony, which lasted from just rising of the sun to the end of the afternoon.

After the ceremony, the emperor, accompanied by monks, would chant sutras for the ancestors.

This ceremony will continue until evening.

When the emperor returned to his residence at night, he felt that his whole body was hollowed out, and he couldn't lift up any strength.

His health is deteriorating, and he may not be able to participate in next year's ancestor worship.

The emperor originally wanted to rest, but the imperial concubine suddenly walked in.

"Your Majesty..." The imperial concubine knelt in front of the emperor, feeling very sad.

She hadn't seen the emperor for a long time, and she couldn't even remember how long it was. Taking this opportunity, she wanted to meet the emperor.

After all, the security on the imperial mausoleum was not as strict as in the imperial palace, which gave her a chance.

"What are you doing here? I don't want to see you." The emperor was as cold as ice.

"Your Majesty, why are you suddenly so indifferent to the concubine? Even though Marquis Yong'an did something wrong, the concubine is just a woman."

"You are not a woman, you are a bitch..." the emperor scolded sharply.

The imperial concubine looked at the emperor in shock.

"Don't think that I don't know about the messy things you and Yong'an Hou did."

The imperial concubine's face was pale, she never thought that the emperor knew about the fact that she sat down with Marquis Yong'an more than 20 years ago.

"The third child should also be the bastard of you and Yong'an Housheng." The emperor stared at the imperial concubine with cold eyes.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, no, no..." The imperial concubine desperately shook her head.

"You still deny it until now. Last time you got pregnant with the third child by fooling around with Marquis Yong'an. Now you are fooling around with the second child again."

"Today, I came to worship my ancestors to repent to my ancestors. It is because I have been deceived by lard that I only love you as a woman."

The imperial concubine is the love of the emperor's life. The reason why he still keeps the imperial concubine is the reluctance in his heart. After all, they have loved each other deeply.The imperial concubine brought him a lot of happiness, ease and joy that others did not give him.

He couldn't bear it, so he never killed the imperial concubine.After worshiping the ancestors today, he is ready to attack the noble concubine, besides the noble concubine, there are also King Yan and King Qin.

He has a lifelong obsession with loving him, but he is an emperor after all, and he has to think about the future of this country.

The noble concubine had lost all hope, even if what the emperor said was false, he would have died, not to mention what the emperor said was true.

"Come..." the emperor shouted.

But no one came in from outside the door.

"Come here, are they all dead?" the emperor roared violently.

He was already very tired and anxious inside.In the end, he cruelly killed the noble concubine and King Yan, and got rid of King Qin and the queen, which made his heart very painful.

He wants to pave the way for the fourth prince and remove all obstacles while he is alive, otherwise it is impossible to secure the throne with the qualifications of the fourth prince.

"They are indeed dead." King Yan came in from the outside holding a sword dripping with blood, with a ferocious smile on his face.

"Nizi, what do you want?" the emperor pointed at King Yan and shouted.

"What do you think I want to do?" King Yan laughed loudly.

"You're crazy." The emperor had a look of fear on his face.

He never thought that King Yan would have the guts to rebel.

"I'm crazy, I was driven crazy by you." King Yan raised the sword in his hand and yelled angrily at the emperor.

"I have always been your most beloved son, and I have been trying my best to walk forward with difficulty according to the person you set for me and the route you set, but I only made a few small mistakes. Abandoned me."

"You suspect that I am not your own son, and you actually want to kill me."

"How do we look different? Our character, our virtues are all the same. The same bad, the same disgusting, the same lust."

"Put down the sword in your hand, you are treason, he is your father, how can you do such a thing?" The noble concubine grabbed Yan Wang's sleeve and shouted heart-piercingly.

The noble concubine felt ashamed, bursting into tears, wishing to kill herself directly, but she couldn't die at this time, because she couldn't watch Yan Wang continue on this wrong road.

"It's the concubine who is sorry for you. Don't do this, he is your father."

The noble concubine's begging did not have any effect on King Yan, but was kicked to the ground by King Yan instead.

"I am his son, which is already the greatest disgrace." King Yan pointed his sword at the emperor, "I didn't expect that I was your son, making me worse than a pig or a dog."

"I have been fighting with King Qin for more than twenty years. You know, I don't want to lose to him, but he slept with you, my mother..."

"I fight him to the death, but at night he... How do you let me live?"

The imperial concubine howled miserably.

Li Yulou originally wanted to tidy up and take a rest early.She knelt for a day and was really tired.

But just as night fell, there were shouts of killing.

"Do you think I'm right?" Meng Fangfei looked at Li Yulou and said.

Li Yulou took the sword out of the tent, the outside was already in chaos, flames were everywhere, and miserable shouts kept coming and going.

She also didn't know who was fighting with whom, who killed whom.

"Auntie, what's the matter?" Li Yulou asked.

"It's nothing, either King Yan or King Qin launched a coup and is about to seize power completely," Meng Fangfei said.

"Then what should we do, where to hide?" Li Yulou asked.

"It's best not to run around at this time, just stay here and don't move." Meng Fangfei said while wiping the sword in her hand.

"Son, mother begs you, put down the sword in your hand. Mother will return to the fief with you, mother begs your father, he will not make things difficult for our mothers." The noble concubine begged with her last hope.

"You are really shameless and ignorant." King Yan cursed.

The emperor was undoubtedly lonely at this time, and there was no one he trusted around him, and he might have been killed by Hades long ago.

"What do you want?" the emperor looked at King Yan and asked.
