Chapter 137 Instigation
"Your Highness the Princess is naturally a noble daughter of heaven, but it's a pity that I've been wrongly loved, so I can't be a good match!" Mei Xiaodong quietly rejected Emperor Yanxi's proposal without hesitation.

Emperor Yanxi was condescending, pursed his lips tightly, and said nothing, his cold eyes fixed on the young man kneeling on the sapphire ground.

The person in front of him is his own nephew, the only blood left by his own sister. If it were someone else who offended his majesty over and over again, he would have died [-] million times up!
But the sullenness in his heart was only fleeting, and soon suppressed.

Because, in addition to the reason of blood relatives, Emperor Yanxi also had another layer of concerns about Mei Xiaodong.

Everyone in the Dasheng Dynasty knows that the old British hero Meihu was a first-class hero in the founding of the country. More than 30 years ago, at the beginning of the establishment of the new dynasty, he once led [-] brave troops to guard Suzhou and fought bloody battles for fifteen days and nights. , At an extremely tragic price, they resisted the invasion of the [-] Beirong army.If it weren't for this, Emperor Taizu, who was in the midst of internal and external troubles, would not be able to sit firmly on this dragon chair!

And the offspring that the old British Duke valued the most was Mei Xiaodong, the eldest grandson.

Mei Xiaodong is the most talented among the many sons and nephews of the old British public. Although his parents are both dead, he has a proud talent.Therefore, since Emperor Yanxi came to the throne, he has been working hard to train this nephew, and he is going to let him guard the important town of Suzhou when he becomes an adult!
Looking at the entire Dasheng Dynasty, apart from Mei Xiaodong, there is really no other candidate who knows every key pass in Suzhou area so well and has a well-thought-out plan!
Mei Xiaodong was sure of this, so he dared to challenge Emperor Yanxi and wanted to single-handedly decide his own marriage!

He boldly made this move to force Emperor Yanxi to make a choice: Is the role of the father or the role of the emperor important?Is the daughter's life-long event more important, or Suzhou's defense is more important?
Emperor Yanxi was always scheming, but this time he felt as if he had been generalized by this young man, so he was naturally blowing his beard and staring at him.His complexion changed again and again, and in the end he just frowned, waved his hands irritably, and said, "Forget it, since you are so ignorant of flattery, then go back to Suzhou quickly! These children's affairs, wait until you have the ability Let's talk about winning Beirong!"

At this moment, Emperor Yanxi had made up his mind to endure his anger.According to the ancestral system of this dynasty, the princess's husband-in-law, that is, the son-in-law, can only be given the false title of captain, and he cannot actually hold any real position in the court, let alone hold one side's military power.And he still needs Xiaodong a lot now, for the sake of Beirong's war, he must not add trouble to Xiaodong!
This is also the most fundamental reason why he clearly knew that Qinghe favored Xiaodong selfishly, but he has not proposed marriage for them for a long time!

He didn't think that the child Xiaodong had the courage to violate the imperial decree, but subconsciously he couldn't trust the character of these children.Young people, when they are in a good mood, they will cheer up like chicken blood; otherwise, they will be like eggplants beaten by frost.And he can't afford to gamble!The war against North Korea has been brewing for almost ten years, and he will never allow the slightest accident to happen!

However, not referring to Qinghe and Xiaodong's marriage now does not mean that they will not refer to them in the future!If the war against Bei Rong can be achieved once and for all, he doesn't mind making a decree after the war is over to fulfill the long-cherished wish of his beloved daughter for many years!
Emperor Yanxi has made up his mind, and his mentality of not wanting to talk more is very obvious.

Mei Xiaodong couldn't help being slightly taken aback.From the perfunctory words of the emperor's uncle, he smelled something unusual.The emperor's uncle must have used a trick of procrastination, but he actually had other plans!
After thinking about it, Mei Xiaodong realized that in the eyes of the emperor's uncle, his current status was still very limited, and it would be useless to continue arguing.He originally wanted to resign, but when he thought of Princess Qinghe's staring eyes, he felt deeply uneasy, so he knelt down again, "Please forgive me for taking the liberty, but I have not been in Beijing for a long time, and I am really worried about Miss Fu's safety, so I dare to ask the emperor, if there is any misunderstanding between the Miss Fu family and His Highness the Princess, the emperor must see it for the sake of my dedication and duty, treat everyone equally and deal with it fairly!"

Emperor Yanxi looked at Mei Xiaodong reproachfully, he felt that his little nephew had been carried away by that little girl named Fu Junya!But in order to show the magnanimity of the king, he still snorted coldly, "Hmph, what's so difficult about it, I promise you it will be!"

Mei Xiaodong was overjoyed, and hurriedly shouted "Long live", and thanked him endlessly.The emperor's uncle is a very proud person, since he opened his mouth, he will definitely keep his promise.Little girl Qinghuan finally has an extra layer of security now!

Jingren Palace.

The queen gave Princess Qinghe a displeased look, she obviously hated iron but steel, but due to her noble status, she couldn't do anything on the spot, she just put down the teacup lightly, and frowned regretfully She frowned, "Qinghe, it's a bit late for you to find the queen mother today!"

Princess Qinghe had just told Fu Junya's bad behavior emphatically, and she was crying and wiping away her tears. Hearing the words, she couldn't help being stunned for a moment, "It's too late? My son doesn't understand, what does the empress mean...?"

The queen shook her head in disappointment, but she was very proud in her heart.Recently, she often expresses this kind of expression to Princess Qinghe. In the past, she cared and pampered her in every possible way, but now she frequently reveals her contempt and ridicule towards this "daughter".Because, Princess Qinghe, a pawn that has been raised for 15 years, is about to play a role!

"Since you said that you are going to find the emperor to give you a marriage, you should go directly, change your mind temporarily, and go to the queen mother to cry, but what is the reason? If this is the time, Mei Xiaodong went to the emperor alone, you Didn't the opportunity be lost for nothing?" Seeing Princess Qinghe's ignorant eyes, the empress felt a headache, so she could only speak to explain.

Princess Qinghe stopped sobbing, and her dewy eyes widened, as if she had gone stupid.It took her a while to realize, and she slapped her thigh and said excitedly: "Queen, what do you mean, if I went directly to Emperor Father just now, he would most likely have agreed to point me to Brother Xiaodong?!"

The queen nodded, and looked at Princess Qinghe with pity, "That's right. You are the emperor's favorite jewel, and every frown and smile is related to the dignity of the Tian family. Of course, the emperor can't let you suffer this kind of grievance." " Her eyes suddenly tightened a little bit, she gently approached Princess Qinghe's ear, and said coldly: "But what about you? You clearly thought of such a good way to win with one blow, but you didn't implement it immediately , It’s really unbelievable! How does the queen mother usually teach you? Where did your usual courage go? Huh? "

"I, I think he is so fierce, it doesn't seem like a joke at all, suddenly I don't dare to confront him, for fear of making him angry..." Princess Qinghe shrugged her shoulders and said in a sincere way.She stared at the queen's sharp eyes, recalling the strange tone of voice, only felt fear and uneasiness in her heart.Why does the queen mother seem to be a different person recently?She is no longer the gentle and loving mother, but as strange and mean as the stepmothers in the drama; the sneer in her eyes when she stared at herself made people so frightened and uneasy, like there were dozens of people on her back. A vicious scorpion crawled across, so creepy!

"Alas! It seems that the blood of Concubine De is still flowing in your bones, and you will be cowarded at the critical moment, ha ha! If this palace guess is correct, you have already obtained the approval of the emperor for your cousin Dong's marriage, but you I’m still here dreaming of the Spring and Autumn Dream! As everyone knows, the day lily is cold!” The Queen’s eyes fell on the ice-cracked Yue Kiln celadon tea bowl in her hand, and her voice was as cold as porcelain.Those eyes were gentle and pleasant, but there was no trace of her adopted daughter in her pupils.

Princess Qinghe's heart was torn and broken bit by bit.At this moment, her heart was completely messed up!She forgot that she originally came to seek support from the empress, but now she has no time to take care of Mei Xiaodong and Fu Junya, her mind is full of choices, why does the empress despise me so much?Why does the queen mother exclude me like this? ?
"No, I don't believe it! I don't believe it!" After a daze, Princess Qinghe hugged her head in pain.

The empress obviously lacked interest in Princess Qinghe's bewildered appearance. She stood up leisurely. Although she was not young, her posture was still graceful and elegant. Her gaze was full of pity again, as if looking at a The clown who was abandoned by the audience, or the loser who was completely abandoned by the god of fate, "I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you."

Princess Qinghe sat down on the ground, and the only response to her was the wafting incense from Jingren Palace, which seemed even more lonely and penetrating.

It turned out that the people from Lvyun Palace who accompanied her had gone somewhere, Princess Qinghe realized that she had no real confidants, no one who was really useful by her side!
She looked at the direction where the queen had just left, and pain and regret began to show in her eyes.

Regret my ignorance!Regretted that she considered a thief as her mother. There were so many clues in the past ten years, but she chose to forget them selectively, and always took the falsehood as the sincerity!
The self-esteem in Princess Qinghe's bones began to rise, and she tried to stand up and leave this place where her dignity was swept away!
A pair of warm arms wrapped around hers.When she looked back, she saw a gentle and calm smiling face, that was Lan Yan, the eldest maid beside the empress!
Lan Yan smiled slightly, as if she had understood her feelings, "Your Highness, do you feel wronged? In fact, this servant thinks that it's no wonder the empress is disappointed. Didn't the empress teach you to be a strong man since childhood?" ? Only the truly strong are worthy to stand beside the empress..."

Seeing Princess Qinghe staring blankly, as if she had already been drawn by her, she couldn't help feeling complacent, paused on purpose, smiled slowly, and continued to bewitch: "Actually, the princess is originally a strong person, but just because she cared about it, she became chaotic. On the contrary, there is no outsider like Numaid who can see through! According to Numaid, if the princess wants to get rid of the thorn in her side, the best way is to ask your biological mother, Concubine De, for help!"
