Chapter 125
In the emperor's Qiankun Palace, there is a faint fragrance of dragon musk, mixed with the taste of pen and ink. There are still unfinished business affairs on the case table. Next to it is a bookshelf. There are some books on it. The queen of time, I saw it when I cleaned it up for him, and they were all things like history books.

While she was watching, a father's voice came from the door, and then the door was opened.

"It seems that Ms. Meng is very concerned about my affairs, and she came so early." The emperor seemed to be in a good mood today, and made a joke as soon as he came in, and went straight to the dragon chair and sat down.

Meng Yizhen turned to the emperor to bless him and replied: "I made the emperor laugh at you."

The emperor waved his hands casually and said: "Okay, okay, there is no need to be so polite. I called you here today because I want to talk to you about the affairs of the court."

At this time, the emperor has half trust in Meng Yi, at least as a bystander, she can see all the situation clearly, and she can also solve the doubts in his heart, so it is already Enough is enough, unlike those ministers who keep saying to relieve the emperor's worries, but actually report some trivial things every day, which is a headache.

"The emperor loves you. The little girl only saw some superficial things about this matter in the court. If she really played with the emperor, it would be a bit ridiculous." Meng Yizhen is not a fool, the emperor's tyranny is well known to the world , the more fancy she is, the greater the chance of annoying him in the end, and now this situation makes her have to be careful every step of the way.

The emperor chuckled, didn't care much about Meng Yi's modesty, stepped directly into the topic, and said: "I think you should have heard that my ministers are discussing your matter recently, what do you think about this matter?" ?” Even though the ministers had already shut up about this matter, the emperor still brought it up again and put it in front of Meng Yizhen.

Meng Yi really understood the meaning of the emperor's words, curled his lips and said: "However you look at this matter, it's all on the emperor's side."

"Oh?" The emperor looked at Meng Yizhen with great interest.

Meng Yizhen smiled and then said: "If the girl guessed correctly, the people who mentioned this matter include Wen Shangshu, Yang Taifu and Lord Lin from the Ministry of Officials, is the girl right?"

Hearing Meng Yizhen's words, the emperor was a little surprised, frowned and said suspiciously: "How do you know? Could it be that you secretly sent someone to peek at my early court?"

"Your Majesty has been wronged. My daughter dare not peep at the early court where major national affairs are discussed. As for how my daughter knew, Wen Shangshu was strongly recommended by Qi Guojiu, Taifu Yang was recommended to you by the Queen Mother, and Mrs. Lin, the Ministry of Officials, There have been rumors about the relationship with the Qi family earlier, if these little girls don't mention it, the emperor should know it better than anyone else." Meng Yi really slowly sorted out the relationship line one by one, it couldn't be more clear.

The emperor frowned slightly after hearing this. "You mean to say that the queen is behind all this?"

Meng Yizhen shook his head after hearing this.

The emperor was also confused now, Wei Wei took a dull breath and said, "If the empress didn't do this, who else could it be?"

Meng Yizhen smiled slightly and said: "The Qi family has had such a big incident recently, some people must be unable to sit still."

What does it mean? If you don't know it, it's a metaphor.

The emperor pursed his lips, sent someone to bring up a pot of tea, took a sip with a serious face, and then suppressed his emotions and returned to his previous appearance, but looked at Meng Yizhen and said without blinking: "Then I want to ask If you are filial to the prince, will you not be sincere to me because of him?"

The relationship between Li Xiaochuan and Meng Yizhen, even if others don't mention it, the emperor can see it clearly, including all the meetings in the past two days, he knows it, but he just doesn't talk about it, if it is said that there is no slightest relationship between the two If so, the emperor would never believe it.

Mentioning Li Xiaochuan, Meng Yizhen's heart felt as if a big stone had fallen, and it was painful, but on the surface he still looked calm.

She put her hand on the table, tapped the table lightly with the back of her hand, and then said slowly: "If the emperor doesn't trust my daughter, you can choose not to say anything."

The emperor just looked at Meng Yizhen's eyes fixedly, and after a long while, he laughed and looked away, and even said a few interesting words.

"I have never seen a woman who is not afraid of me like you, and is full of strong words. I am a little reluctant to let you go!" The emperor's words seemed to be joking, but his eyes were burning.

Meng Yizhen lowered his eyes subconsciously, deliberately ignoring the emperor's gaze, and said modestly: "The emperor praised you absurdly."

"If that's the case, I'll believe you once. Come and talk to me. If I want to marry Prince Xiao, which family girl do you think I should give to Prince Xiao as a concubine?" Even so, the emperor After asking again, his eyes never left Meng Yizhen.

When Meng Yizhen heard this question, he almost lost the rhythm of his tapping movements, but he recovered immediately, and he could see how Meng Yizhen was feeling right now.

In recent days, what Meng Yizhen was worried about finally happened, and this is still the one thing that makes Meng Yizhen unable to face Li Xiaochuan's true feelings.

Meng Yi's heartbeat was a little fast, but he still tried his best to stabilize himself, and said with a smile: "The emperor can handle this matter by himself, the little girl is just a girl, and when it comes to picking someone, the emperor has the best vision. "

"No, I will let you decide today, who do you want to marry Prince Xiao!" The emperor's eyes were sharp, and his words were firm.

Immediately, the sound of Meng Yizhen knocking on the table echoed throughout the Qiankun Palace, which was smooth and light, but in such an atmosphere, no one noticed Meng Yizhen's subconscious behavior.

She lowered her eyes, tried hard to put away the reluctance in her eyes, took a deep breath in her heart, then slowly raised her eyes, pursed her lips and said: "Mr. Zuo has kept himself clean these few years, and never relied on anyone." It is really a rare honest and good official.”

The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly: "You mean Lou Jing's daughter?"

Meng Yizhen smiled and said nothing.

But seeing Meng Yi's real appearance, the emperor suddenly laughed, the smile was bright, and the smile on his face could not be hidden, and he said: "I thought you would recommend yourself, but it turns out that you really mean it." Seriously, you really recommended such a candidate to me, okay! Then I will do as you said, and I think King Xiao will be very happy."

The meaning of the queen's last sentence is unclear.

Meng Yizhen didn't speak any more, picked up a glass of water and put it to his lips, deliberately concealed the uncontrollable tension and fear on his face, the thing she was worried about was coming after all, but it was something that couldn't be stopped.

If it is really like what the emperor said just now, if she introduces herself, not only will she break away from the emperor's trust, but she will also be implicated with Li Xiaochuan. The current emperor will never allow her to be like this with Li Xiaochuan. It was still possible for the two of them to be together in the past, but now she deeply knows the emperor's state of mind towards her at this time.

"It's getting late, why don't you stay and have lunch, it's warm in Zhen's palace." The emperor didn't mention what happened just now, and changed the subject in an instant.

But Meng Yizhen got up and refused: "Your Majesty is unnecessary, my daughter has been in the Emperor's palace for a long time, and she can't get used to it after going back for a while, so I will leave first."

"That's all right, let's go."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your permission!"

On the way back, Meng Yi was really in a daze, and suddenly she saw some things very clearly. No matter how many things she resolved, all dangers were saved, but what should come will eventually come, and she cannot stop it alone.

At that moment just now, the emperor was watching her thoughts, the performances of those ministers were not ineffective, but the emperor kept them in his heart. In fact, in the last life, the emperor proposed to Li Xiaochuan to marry Lou Anqiao in court. Before this, no one came to inform the emperor.

So the emperor suddenly asked about marriage, and he already had a suitable answer in his heart. He just wanted to test the credibility of her words. If she was not talking about the Lou family, not only would she not have stopped the matter , even her own result can't be predicted, after all, the person she is confronting now is the current Holy Majesty.

"Miss Meng, the emperor told you to go to the Jiangnan area first."

As soon as Meng Yizhen arrived at the bedroom, Eunuch Li, who was next to the emperor, came and preached respectfully to Meng Yizhen.

Coincidentally, this period of time was the critical period when infighting began to occur in the palace. At that time, Meng Yizhen was still in Li Qichuan's mansion, anxious and happy every day, and did not participate in it, but he was very concerned about the situation in the palace. learn.

The power of the Qi family expanded, and the emperor began to target Li Xiaochuan.

"Okay, did the emperor tell you when to let the little girl go?" Meng Yizhen said very cooperatively, without a trace of reluctance on his face.

Eunuch Li replied: "The emperor said that there may be heavy snowfall for several days after today, I hope that Miss Meng will set off immediately, wait until I get out of the capital, and arrive in the south in a few days, the weather there is quite suitable, very It suits Miss Meng's habit of being afraid of the cold."

Meng Yizhen nodded slightly in response.

Afterwards, Eunuch Li directly sent someone to call the prepared carriage to the gate of Meng Yizhen's bedroom, and specially arranged for her to follow a clever palace maid. Besides, there were also two plainclothes guards, who looked at her very well. reliable.

Meng Yizhen didn't have many things here, so he just packed it up casually. When he carried his luggage to the door, Eunuch Li walked up to Meng Yizhen again, then took out a money bag from his sleeve and handed it to Meng Yizhen, saying: "This It was the emperor who sent the servants to give it to Miss Meng, I hope that after Miss Meng goes to the south of the Yangtze River, she will have a good time playing and don't miss the rare beauty."

Meng Yizhen glanced down at the purse in Eunuch Li's hand, then reached out to take it, and said unceremoniously: "In this way, I would like to thank the emperor for his love for my little girl, and I would like to ask my eunuch to speak to the emperor for my little girl."

Eunuch Li nodded his head in agreement.

Afterwards, Meng Yizhen got into the carriage, and the carriage drove straight to the outside of the palace gate, gradually leaving everything in the capital.
