(Four more!)

After Xie Dao received the summon from Emperor Chongde, his face was as ugly as he wanted.Once again, he felt that it was not a good thing for the Xie family to have a successor.

Xie Dao has been the head of the Xie Family Guild Hall for several years.He had been living a very comfortable life before, but ever since Xie Zi entered the Kunning Palace, he was always trembling, for fear that something wrong with the Kunning Palace would affect the Chenliu Xie family.

The so-called family must be connected with each other.Although Xie Zi is a side branch of Chenliu's Xie clan, she was personally selected by Xie Kui, the patriarch of Chenliu's direct branch.The fact that the Xie family has a successor is not a matter of Xie Zi alone, but the choice of the entire family.

Xie Dao knew why the patriarch, that is, his father, made this decision.As an ancient family, the Chen Liuxie family also needs to develop and needs more space for reproduction.For the aristocratic family, sticking to the same will only gradually wither away. The best development is to become an official and seek power. Successors are only a step of trial.

There will be a second and a third step.But Xie Dao hasn't seen these two moves so far, he has been in Jingzhao for a long time, he only saw that Xie's first step was not steady, and Xie Zi's subsequent move was not a good pawn.

To be honest, Xie Zi is smart and doesn't mess around, there is a reason why her father picked her.But from Xie Dao's point of view, Xie Zi is too smart, has a big heart, and is the queen of the country. Such a person is actually a factor of instability in a family.

He was worried that the entire Chenliu Xie family would be buried with Xie Zi's ambitions, that they would fail to reproduce and seek success, and in the end would bring disaster to the family.

This worry was confirmed last year in the matter of Tang Zhu and Yu Hanyuan, and Kunning Palace actually intervened in the affairs of the third prince's residence, and finally wiped out the entire family of the two gentry.

A girl who is less than 20 years old can issue the order to exterminate the two clans, which makes Xie Dao tremble all over, Xie Zi's heart is too cruel.Such a successor is not something Chen Liuxie can tolerate!
He told his father Xie Kui about his peace of mind many times, but Xie Kui's response was only one: the matter has come to this point, we can't retreat lightly, and we will do our best to help.

That's right, it's about family reproduction, once it's decided, how can it be changed?Xie Dao could only follow Xie Kui's instructions and use the strength of the Xie Family Hall to assist Xie Zi.

However, presumably Xie Kui also had concerns, and has been suppressing the second and third steps, at least, suppressing the family's children not to be official.
Fortunately, Xie Zi didn't act rashly, which somewhat reassured Xie Dao.But God damn it, it didn't take long for him to relax before Qin Ji had such a big event!
"How could she be so bold, how could she be so bold!" Xie Dao said bitterly at the time, wishing to pretend that he hadn't read Xie Zi's personal letter.

But Qin Jiren had already arrived at the Xie's Guild Hall, so he had no choice but to try his best to use it up.Xie Dao had already felt that something would happen, but he didn't expect such a big thing to happen!

The bloody case outside Jingzhao city gate, the dark guards who died in blood, and Qin Ji's death all made him feel like he had stepped into a trap.Before he could figure out what this trap was, something more serious happened.
In a word, the demon queen of subjugation!This time, being dragged down to death by Xie Zi, this is... This is going to be exterminated!

Xie Dao didn't know what to do, so he had to send the horoscope back to Chen Liu in a hurry, thinking about the countermeasures.Then, the emperor's summons came.

What should he do to help Xie Zi get through this crisis?Can Chen Liuxie escape this crisis?

When he came to Zichen Palace with his servants, the chaotic emotions in his mind had subsided, and the countermeasures became clearer and clearer. Then he calmed down and waited for Emperor Chongde's question.

Just as he thought, what Emperor Chongde asked was indeed about Jingzhao vision.To this, Xie Dao's answer was only eight words: "In the middle palace, without heirs."

In the middle palace, without heirs.This horoscope is the reason for all the visions.Besides, he had no other explanation.

Emperor Chongde recited these eight characters silently, but his brows did not relax.He reluctantly accepted this explanation.But he was more concerned about other things.

"Why did Qin Ji appear in the Xie's Guild Hall? Was it sent from the palace? Is the Kunning Palace related to the assassination in the East Palace?" Emperor Chongde asked, asking three questions in a row, directly slamming Xie Dao into confusion.

Xie Dao suppressed the fear in his heart, expressed his astonishment, pretended to be stupid and asked in a daze: "The son of Qin appeared in the Xie family hall? Uh, your majesty, Caomin... Caomin don't quite understand what this means."

He screamed in his heart: How could the emperor know this?I knew I would never pay attention to Qin Ji, but now I was cheated to death by Xie Zi!
He was still dazed, waiting for the emperor's next words.Apart from denying it to death, he has no other way to deal with it.

Emperor Chongde stared at him closely, trying to see something from this simple and honest face.But Xie Dao must have some enthusiasm for being the head of the Xie Family Guild Hall, and he didn't reveal anything.

At this moment, Chang Kang came in and told Emperor Chongde, "Your Majesty, the empress is asking to see you!"

Emperor Chongde thought for a moment, and then said: "Quite in." At this time, why is the queen here?

Xie Zi curled into Zichen Palace. She was wearing a red uniform, which reflected her young and beautiful appearance, and seemed to bring a ray of warmth to Zichen Palace, which made Emperor Chongde's heart tremble.

Beauty can indeed make people feel happy, no wonder everyone loves it, and Emperor Chongde's brows relaxed a little.

Xie Zi didn't look at Xie Dao, she walked directly to the front of the imperial court, knelt down, bent down deeply, and said: "Concubine, come to plead guilty to the emperor."
Xie Dao felt relieved, while Emperor Chongde asked: What is the Queen's crime?

He called the queen instead of the usual Zitong or Zi'er, it can be seen that although his heart is soft, he is still angry.

"How can the concubine be innocent? The first crime is that he has no virtue to dominate the palace, the second crime is that he has no heir to his position, and the third crime is that he is incapable of subduing the harem...how can the concubine be innocent..." Xie Zi said in a low voice , anyone can feel the bitterness in her heart.
"No virtue, it's because the concubines have no orders and reputations, and it's because the emperor selected the emperor to share the great blessings, so they can come to Jingzhao from Chenliu. Every time the concubines do things, they are careful and careful, and they are afraid of losing the blessing of the emperor. "

"Without an heir, it means that the concubine has had nothing to produce for several years. The concubine is always afraid, wishing to give up half her life to have an heir for the emperor. The concubine eats vegetarian food and worships the Buddha, and is dedicated to goodness. I only hope that there will be omens in my dreams."
"Incompetence is because although the concubine is the empress, she can't detect the chaos in the Xining Palace. Thinking about it, the concubine doesn't have much to rely on except for the emperor's favor and the position of empress. Your majesty, are the concubines guilty?"
Finally, Xie Zi sobbed, looked up at Emperor Chongde, tears rolled down her eyes.
