concubines

Chapter 315
With Lin Yanchi's help, Xin successfully went to Xichang.

In the letter, Princess Helan described herself as extremely miserable, saying that she was beaten every day, and the emperor didn't treat her as a human being at all, crying and wanting to go home.

King Gaochang was very angry after receiving it, and prepared [-] cavalry to go to the battlefield in person, wanting to destroy Song State and avenge his daughter.It was the queen who persuaded and persuaded to endure the anger in her heart and agreed to think about it calmly.

Zhou Shuxuan didn't know about these things at all, and it was only when the envoy came back with King Gaochang's letter that he knew that there was such a letter from his harem, which caused him a lot of trouble.

If you can avoid fighting, then you must never fight. We have to find a different way.

But now it was three months later, and Princess Helan had been imprisoned for three full months, and it was too late to make amends.Now that the envoy has come, he must see the princess.The only solution is Princess Helan, if she tells the envoy nothing will happen.

At such a critical juncture, Princess Helan was losing her temper and refused to see her no matter what. Zhou Shuxuan sent many people to invite her, but it was of no use.Princess Helan doesn't listen to anyone.

No way, he had to come to the door by himself.

Zhou Shuxuan thought he had gone to the wrong place when he entered the door. This place has completely changed its appearance. It doesn't look like his place, but more like Xichang's... royal palace.

Although he has never been there, but looking at the tiger stripes everywhere, this is the totem of the Xichang royal family.

I didn't see Princess Helan come out to greet her when I entered the door, so Gao Fu sent someone to invite her.Zhou Shuxuan sat outside and waited for a long time before he came out.

When Princess Helan saw him, she did not salute him in the Song Dynasty, but in Xichang.

Zhou Shuxuan just looked at it coldly, now that big things are important, there is no need to spend time on these small things.

He Lan sat on the side and didn't speak, Zhou Shuxuan said to himself: "The envoy from Xichang is here and wants to see you."

"He Lan knows, He Lan doesn't want to see her."

"Why?" Zhou Shuxuan felt that she seemed to have grown up a bit, not as hypocritical as before.

Princess Helan lowered her head and said, "Isn't there a saying in Song Dynasty? Report good news but not bad news. He Lan is not doing well here, and I don't want them to know that they are worried."

It's a joke, it's not her complaint, how could Xichang send someone over, but now she is talking about this.

Zhou Shuxuan asked impatiently, "How is your life here?"

"Does the emperor still need to ask? The emperor can think about it for himself. He Lan doesn't want to talk about it."

Zhou Shuxuan thought she was talking about the past, so he explained calmly, "The past is that you did something wrong first, and I will punish you. If you can do well by yourself, there will be no punishment, and you can live here it is good."

"It's not what He Lan said, we don't care whoever did something wrong. What He Lan said is that it has been so long, the emperor has never performed the ceremony of husband and wife with He Lan, and the emperor doesn't care about He Lan at all."

Zhou Shuxuan was speechless.

It's okay to say other things, but this is really a stab at his life.It is impossible to perform any conjugal ceremony, there was none at that time, and it is even more impossible to have it in the future. Marrying her is just a last resort.

Princess Helan knew that she had succeeded when she saw that he had not spoken.

What Lin Yanchi said was indeed correct, he wanted to create trouble for him in this way, and this problem was the biggest problem.This problem is also a problem in her mind, and she doesn't understand why.

In fact, when she heard that the envoy was coming, she wished to see her right away.Then go back with the envoy, return to the prairie, and continue to be her carefree princess.

But Lin Yanchi told her that she couldn't go back, and it was impossible for her to go back after being married.The people who came with her from Xichang also said that, she has no way to go back, so she can only stay here.

After crying for a long time, she could only accept that she couldn't go back, and she didn't want to continue to be wronged here, she must take revenge and make everyone who bullied her unhappy.She had nothing to do by herself, but fortunately Lin Yanchi had a way.

Lin Yanchi told her that she couldn't be like before, being so self-willed would only make her suffer more grievances, and if they wanted to make them sad, they had to listen to her.

Princess Helan didn't know anyone in this place, she was the closest to Lin Yanchi, so she obeyed her.Lin Yanchi also taught her the ceremony of husband and wife, no matter what, Lin Yanchi taught her word by word.

Princess Helan didn't know where Zhou Shuxuan's deathbed was, but Lin Yanchi knew it clearly.

Zhou Shuxuan held back for a long time before choking out a sentence: "Now you are still very young, I do not want to be married to you because I love you."

Nausea is indeed a little disgusting, but it's fine if you can fool it.The envoys must be seen, and Princess Helan must be willing to see them, and they must speak well of them.

Lin Yanchi didn't teach these things anymore, and Lin Yanchi didn't expect that Zhou Shuxuan would answer like this, and Princess Helan could only play by herself.He asked in a daze: "Why doesn't Xixi treat me like a husband and wife?"

Zhou Shuxuan covered his face, no one taught her this?It always feels weird for him to say it now.

Zhou Shuxuan replied solemnly, "It will be very painful, and you are still very young now, the pain will be even worse, and you will bleed a lot. But when you grow up, it will not hurt so much."

Princess Helan listened to this in a daze, as if she still didn't quite understand.But after hearing what he said, I felt much better towards him in my heart, but it was not to the point of forgiving him. She was not so easy to fool.

"But who knows if the emperor is fooling He Lan to say that, the emperor just wants He Lan to go out to meet the envoys, that must be the case."

Seen through by her.

Zhou Shuxuan said without changing his face: "I will never lie when I say my word, what I say is the truth."

Gao Fu watched from the side, and said to the emperor that you can tell the truth if it is true or not.

After all, Princess Helan was a little girl, she had a simple mind, and she was a little shaken after hearing his words.With the last sliver of reason in his head, he asked, "How can you prove that what you said is true, Your Majesty?"

……

I didn't expect her to be so difficult, I thought it would be over if I fooled her, and I could obediently listen to him and go out.

Zhou Shuxuan asked back: "How do you want me to prove it?"

"He Lan heard that men and women in the Song Dynasty will hold weddings when they get married, wear wedding clothes, and drink a cup of wine. If the emperor can do it, He Lan will believe what the emperor says."

Zhou Shuxuan covered his face again. Could it be that no one told her that she didn't come here to be a wife, but just a concubine, and she didn't need those rituals at all.

Zhou Shuxuan weighed the pros and cons, and felt that her request could be met, and the state affairs were the most important thing in everything.

Zhou Shuxuan nodded and said, "Yes, I will have someone prepare it later."

Princess Helan completely forgot what Lin Yanchi had taught her in an instant, and she was only happy. The emperor seemed to be her husband, and they could take care of each other, like father and mother.

In Qingquan Palace, Qingxi didn't go to school today, and she forgot about the beating she received before, and started mischievous again.

Now holding Miaoli tightly, "Auntie, let's go out to play, let's go out to play, you take me out to play, I want to see the fish, I want to see the fish."

Miao Li got a headache from his noise, "Let Xiao Zhuozi accompany you to see it."

"No, no, no, no, no, he hugged me when he went out, and didn't allow me to go to the ground, saying that his mother would not allow him to let me play. Auntie, you go out to play with me, go out with me to play."

Miao Li stretched out her hand to hold him in her arms, and asked, "Have you forgotten what your father looks like? Is it itchy?"

Qingxi was obviously a little scared, but still hugged her and acted like a baby, "I just want to go out and play, and I won't be mischievous. Auntie, don't complain. Let's go out." Qingxi kissed her on the face again, "Auntie and I'm going out."

Miao Li pushed him away and reasoned with him seriously, "But my aunt doesn't want to go out, just like you want to go out."

"I don't care. I'm a child, so my aunt has to let me go. My aunt will accompany me out."

What kind of child is he who can talk about his own child? It's really a headache.

Mother Xi was also persuading: "Mother, the young master has not gone out to play except for school for so long, and he has really trapped the child."

Qingxi kept echoing, "Yes, Mammy is right, the child is trapped, so the empress will accompany the child out."

Miao Li wanted to laugh even more after hearing his words, and she was really annoyed by him and couldn't help it.Put him on the ground, stand up and say, "Okay, okay, I'll go out with you, but we can only go to the Thousand Carp Pond, and we'll come back after seeing the fish."

"Okay." Qingxi jumped up and danced happily.

Speaking of which, she hasn't gone out for three months. After the last time, Li Youfu didn't dare to persuade her to go out. Now Qingxi is the only one who dares to call her out like that.

I haven't gone out for a long time, and I really have a bright feeling.Miao Li couldn't help but looked around a few more times, and saw Zhou Yi Ning talking to a man in red from a distance.

There are only a few children that big in the palace, and they are very recognizable.

After watching Miaoli for a long time, I couldn't see who he was talking to, and I didn't want to disturb him.Besides, Qingxi was still jumping up and down to see the fish, so it was important to see the fish first.

Over there, Zhou Shuxuan also saw her from a distance, and was also identified by Qingxi.Seeing that she was looking at him from a distance, he was at a loss for what to do.His hands were still touching himself, afraid that he would be disheveled.

Miao Li's eyes seemed to stay on him for a long time, and Zhou Shuxuan felt more and more nervous.She looked at herself, and she actually looked at him. Does it mean that she wants to reconcile with him?
Zhou Yi Ning noticed his change, he was fine just now, and asked him how his homework was, but suddenly he seemed to be a different person, feeling inexplicably anxious.His eyes wandered, not knowing where to look.

Following his gaze, Zhou Yining saw two people passing far away, and seemed to understand something in his heart.

People have already gone out of his sight, Zhou Shuxuan's heart suddenly cooled down, isn't he going to reconcile with him as before?Why did you leave again?Then he pushed Zhou Yining, "Go and ask Madam Meng what she was watching just now?"
