The maid is the queen

Chapter 244 Behind the Marriage Proposal

It took him a long time to coax him to stop his tears. I was very happy to hear the maid said that Xi would recite the Three Character Classic. I asked him to read it to me. Time passed without knowing it, and the sun was quietly vertical on the window sill. I hurriedly got up and wanted to go back , Xie is still clinging tightly, I think the emperor is going down anyway, knowing that I am here, so I might as well take Xie back with me.

He carried Xi out and saw several guards standing at the door of the study, all of them standing upright.

Some angry voices roared from inside: "Lu Xianhu is really not afraid of death. I gave him a chance, but he wanted to die. Don't blame me."

"Your Majesty, please calm down."

As I got closer and closer, I signaled the guards not to salute, and I heard him roar angrily: "How can I calm my anger? Everyone knows Mu Qiu's identity, yet he proposes to me."

I poked my head out to look, but just let him look straight, his eyes are like sharp arrows that can hurt people, I burst out laughing: "I have seen the emperor, I don't know why the emperor is so angry, why?" There are no ministers to be punished, only a few poor father-in-laws.

The emperor looked at me and laughed: "It just happens to be related to you? Mu Qiu, what do you think I should do? General Lu Xianhu likes your beauty, please marry me, and point you to him as his wife." , how are you?"

What the hell, if I answered yes, if you hadn't skinned me, you would have known better and wouldn't have come over so curiously, shaking your head embarrassingly: "Not good."

"Then tell me, how to deal with this matter is the best policy."

It was really nerve-wracking, I raised my head and said whimsically: "The emperor demoted me to a distant place, never to enter the capital, so that he could never leave the capital." This is really good.

But he looked at Xi in my arms and said coldly: "I see, Xi has already called your mother concubine, you just need to rectify your name, I will make you a concubine, everyone is happy."

Fart, he's the only one who likes it, I don't want to be his concubine.

He was always like this, when there was a storm, he could use some things to think of more things for himself.

He said, "Mu Qiu, how do you look?"

"Not good." I made a straight face.

I answered his words without even thinking about it, which made his face look ugly and became more and more sinister: "Why not? Do you have a better way?"

I was just passing by, I just came to hug Xie, but now I can't leave even if I want to.

I have no choice but to keep silent.

Xi seemed to have sensed his anger, and clung to me and softly called: "Mother Concubine." The little finger pointed outside: "Go and play."

I don't want to, it's a strange thing to be able to walk under his murderous eyes.

Fearing that the world would not be chaotic, Lu Xianhu, I bowed my head lightly: "The emperor must have a countermeasure, and Mu Qiu will not worry about the emperor's handling of political affairs."

"This matter is related to you, of course I have to ask you what you mean."

The father-in-law came out to invite me in, and then quietly retreated to the door. Even the maids came to pick up Xi, but Xi obediently abandoned me and went with them. The closed door made the study look a little darker.

"I really don't know how to deal with it." I said honestly, thinking about his thoughts, he just wanted to use this to make me a concubine, but I didn't want to.

Ai sadly looked up at him, I don't like this, will he really respect me?
He couldn't see through his mind, and he was obviously angry.

"Is it okay for me to make you my concubine?"

As soon as I heard this sentence, the darkness in my heart dissipated. Saying this means that he will not force me anymore. I am finally relieved, and I feel that I can’t behave so well in front of him. Be happy, otherwise he will, hehe, anyway, he is petite.

"Your Majesty, you always have a way, don't you?" He poured him a cup of tea courteously: "Don't be angry with him, drink some tea quickly, it smells so good."

He just looked down at my hospitality, then took my hand, and looked at me like that: "What do you need to do so that you can face up to my feelings, how much more do you have to do?"

How can I answer these questions for him?

The biggest difference between the emperor and Xia Juntang is that Xia Juntang never asks for anything in return, but the emperor is different, he pays a little, and he wants to get back a little in return.

He didn't make a sound at the moment, just obediently clinging to his side, the post asking for a marriage was still on the table, it was so glaring.

Walking out of Zhenghua Palace, it can be regarded as a long sigh of relief.

The sun outside was scorching and dazzling, so I blocked it with one hand and went back to the first pavilion.He said that I am a troublemaker, so I should not walk in the harem less, after all it is right.

After walking through the promenade on the water, he saw Lu Xianhu sitting under the flower tree wiping his sword.

I screamed in my heart that it was not good, it was already difficult to turn around, he raised his upright and masculine face, forced a smile and said: "Princess Mu Qiu, I have been waiting for a long time."

It was really bold to speak out, and made my palms sweat: "General Lu, what a coincidence."

"I have been waiting here for a long time, otherwise there would be such a coincidence."

"..."

Doesn't he worry about it when he speaks?If he doesn't want to live, what do I still want?Your Majesty needs to know that it is very possible not to strangle me to death.

Thinking of his anger, I really dare not get close to Paoxianhu. I don't think he will really strangle me to death, but I am afraid that he will be angry, and Long Yan will be furious. I don't know how to calm his anger .

"Princess Muqiu, the weather is nice. I'm interested in seeing the beautiful scenery of the harem with the general." He stood up, looking very tall and mighty, which made me feel oppressed, and I couldn't help but go back Take a step back.

He said with hope in his eyes: "Master Muqiu, if you retreat again, you will fall into the water. I don't mind saving Princess Muqiu again."

I stood firm and didn't dare to retreat any longer. He still hoped that I would fall again, right? It's a good idea.

"It's not good for Princess Muqiu to be so afraid and caring. Zensheng said that I also saved Princess Muqiu, besides..." There was some evil and ambiguous smile in his eyes, and even the coldness in his eyes Unable to hide his fierceness, he briefly said: "Besides, I have already proposed a marriage to the emperor, please ask the emperor to marry Princess Muqiu to me."

I removed my smile and said lightly, "Let's go."

He put the sword into the pin: "Master Muqiu, please."

In the bleak autumn wind, it also has its own unique scenery. The color of the waves is all over the leaves, but we don't care to look at it.

There was no reason to withdraw from the palace maid, but she just said: "Mu Qiu thanked General Lu for saving me last time, but Mu Qiu saw that General Lu was not a superficial person, why did he meet so few times that he couldn't even talk about it deeply, so General Mu asked What about Mu Qiu's proposal?"

He raised his eyebrows, hiding his arrogance and said: "One side is fate, let alone how many sides?"

"In Mu Qiu's view, General Lu is not the one who does these things. Mu Qiu has heard the name of General Lu for a long time. He is invincible on the battlefield. He has never been defeated in battles, big or small."

He said: "That's a man's ambition, but a man can support himself, and he also has his heart. Although there are several concubines in the family and his wife died early, Princess Mu Qiu came here, and he will not wrong Mu Qiu Princess."

I didn't want to turn the corner any more: "General Lu Gong, you are so persistent, what do you mean?"

"The wind is coming, why can't the waves not be able to stand up." He smiled deeply: "Master Muqiu, do you think so?"

"I'm not involved in any harem affairs."

"But it's because of you."

I sighed: "General Lu, I really admire your kung fu, you are a general."

But he said bitterly: "From ancient times to the present, how many generals can die on the battlefield."

I have heard of this before, and that is what the emperor said.

We couldn't help but feel that we were far away, and I understood what he meant. The emperor wanted to make a storm and he wanted to punish him.

I have been speechless all the way, I understand his anger, his grief and his unwillingness.

But I also understand what the emperor is thinking.

The Lu family's power is bound to be let go, but the Lu family also understands what the result will be if they let it go. Their family inherits it, and they have an arrogant attitude that they would rather be broken than broken.

"The queen has always been good to you." He suddenly said, "No matter what the Lu family has done to you, no matter how it changes in the future, you must always have some conscience."

When I was a little stunned, he lowered his voice again, not wanting the maid to hear: "My sister is naturally free and easy, but unfortunately her fate is to be trapped in the palace. It is the fate of the Lu family, and it is also her fate. I don't want to do anything to you, you To me, she is just a stranger, just because others love you and dote on you, does not mean that everyone does, if you hurt her, I will not let her go even if I die."

After he finished speaking, he didn't walk with me again, but strode away, and disappeared from my eyes in a blink of an eye, and the passing branches and leaves were still shaking slightly.

I returned to Huishou Pavilion, and the maid sent a post, but it was printed with a hundred birds facing the phoenix, and it was the empress who wanted to see me.

The maid dressed me up and went with me to the Chaofeng Palace.

Chaofeng Palace is very deserted, except for the father-in-law who guards the gate, no one can see anyone coming in and out. I went in and my father-in-law led the way attentively, with a smile on his face.

When I went to the inner hall and saw the queen, the maid beside her stared at me coldly, but she still had a kind smile on her face, her eyes were filled with sorrow, and the faint redness between her brows was very conspicuous.

"You all go down." She ordered softly, and the maid bowed and went out, leaving only me and her.

She smiled faintly: "Sister Mu Qiu, please sit down, I asked you to come here today, just want to ask you one thing, whether General Lu really proposed marriage to the emperor, and asked the emperor to give his sister Mu Qiu to him."

I nodded and said politely, "Yes."

"Really..." She gritted her teeth: "Are you desperate?"

"Empress, don't worry. Mu Qiu has already made it clear to him that he doesn't really mean that." I was wary of her at first, but seeing how sad she is now, I was also a little sad and couldn't help it. Sound comfort.

There was pain in her eyes: "He has been kind to Bengong since he was a child. He supported the Lu family and let Bengong live freely. Now, does he want to keep it safe with Bengong? He is so stupid, how can Bengong look at him Walking in the wind and waves."
