concubines

Chapter 73
The voice is not very loud, but a few words are deafening.

Miao Li only felt her ears buzzing for a while, and then she couldn't hear the sound anymore.Not only that, but she couldn't see the things in front of her very clearly, and her mind was blank. .

What did the emperor say just now?
Miao Li only felt that her legs were weak and she could hardly stand up.Resisting the trembling voice, he asked, "What does the emperor mean?"

She and the emperor belong to two generations, and she and Zhou Shuxuan are husband and wife. It is impossible for the emperor to...

Miao Li couldn't believe it.

The emperor removed the fan and said without changing his face: "I want you to help me choose."

Miao Li breathed a sigh of relief, and the three souls and seven souls returned to their positions.Before she let go of her hanging heart, she heard the emperor say again: "But I have already found someone else to choose, and the choice has fallen on you."

This is still...

Everything in front of her eyes was extremely unreal, Miao Li stretched out her hand and pinched her to make sure she wasn't dreaming.It's impossible to be dreaming, she never dreamed of such absurd things.

The emperor knew that she was frightened, so he asked her to relax before asking: "What do you think?"

What can she do?Of course she didn't want to.

According to her father, in an ordinary family, she should call the emperor uncle.According to Zhou Shuxuan, although she didn't want to admit it, the emperor is also her father-in-law.

This is simply against human ethics.

Let me say another bad word, the emperor now has gray beard and hair, but she is still young.How can this match Luanhuang, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't match well.

Even if she is a queen, she feels wronged, so what about the queen?Don't stay widowed for most of your life.

Miao Li took half a step back and knelt down, "Please forgive me for the crime of disrespect, I am reminded of a generation of ancients."

"You said."

Miao Li kowtowed and said: "King Ping of Chu has no way, he corrupted Gang Chang's father and accepted his son and wife. The plan was given away, and the golden roof was replaced by a silver-topped sedan chair. The veteran Wu She went to the palace to play the book, and the name of virtuousness has been passed down to this day. But King Chu Ping was whipped from the grave. The dead body, leaving behind eternal infamy. I also ask the emperor to learn from history and think twice."

In her heart, the emperor was just protecting the prince without limit, and there was nothing wrong with it in essence, and it was absolutely impossible to do such absurd things.

The emperor waved his sleeves and shouted: "Bold! How dare you compare me to King Ping of Chu."

Miao Li was terrified, mainly because she was still in shock.After a while, he continued without fear of death: "This servant is just reminding the emperor not to be King Chu Ping."

The emperor looked down at her, and asked with a hint of anger hidden in his tone: "Why did King Chuping marry Princess Mengying? And why did I marry you?"

The emperor said so confidently that Miao Li couldn't guess his reason for a while.But she was never timid, she opened her mouth and said what was in her heart, "It's so easy for the emperor to find a high-sounding reason for this kind of thing."

One sentence blocked the emperor to a dead end, and he didn't even know where to vent his anger just now.

The emperor opened his mouth, and it took him a long time to continue: "I found someone to look at it, and said that now that the phoenix is ​​born, that phoenix is ​​you. For the stability of the country and the peace of the world, I want to make you the queen."

That person can't be the crazy imperial doctor in the palace, can he?

Is it the divination of that damned ghost?The emperor also believes this kind of words?Really stupid to the extreme?

At this time, Miao Li didn't care too much in order to escape, she opened her mouth and asked directly: "Did the emperor figure out that the phoenix flew out of his son's bed? Did the emperor think about the eyes of the world?"

One sentence made my heart hurt, because the emperor's health is barely passable now, otherwise she would be stabbed to death.

"You don't have to worry about those things, I will make you change your face."

sin!

Miaoli is still in a dazed state, the things in her head are rampant, and she can't help thinking about the consequences, so she comes out of her mouth, "Does the emperor believe in some kind of cult or a demon? This is to make the emperor do corrupt things. It is clear that it is causing trouble for the court, and the emperor must not trust too much. Tang Xuanzong's father accepted his son's wife, and the country was almost destroyed. Xia Jingzong's father accepted his son's wife, and his son cut off his head and nose. The lessons of the predecessors are in front of you, and the emperor must not follow the predecessors follow suit."

Compared with the emperor, what Zhou Shuxuan did was much easier for her to accept, at least what Zhou Shuxuan did was within the scope of human beings.

The emperor was not moved at all, "Your words are so sonorous and forceful, it reminds me of your father. He once knelt on the ground like you, trying to persuade you with death."

Then he really died!
Even if he missed his old friend, he didn't miss him in the way of his son-in-law.

Miao Li scolded in her heart, kowtowed her head again and said: "Your Majesty, this servant girl is the daughter of a sinful minister, and she must not be the respect of the mother of the country. Please the Emperor appoint someone else."

"I know exactly what it is, but I can be sure that you are the phoenix."

Miao Li's mind was spinning rapidly, and she quickly found the answer, "The emperor has never thought that even if the servant is a phoenix, he may not be worthy of the emperor. If you say something disrespectful, the servant is very suitable for the real dragon chosen by heaven. "

Miao Li said this at the risk of losing her head, life and death.

The emperor resolutely said: "Impossible. Heaven's election doesn't count, but my election counts. The King of Qin will stop at the prince."

If you give Miao Li a blow, the emperor really has no intention of enthroning Zhou Shuxuan.Then wouldn't she want to stay by Zhou Shuxuan's side all her life?No, no, she might not even be able to stay with Zhou Shuxuan now.

After the emperor sat back on the desk, he sat casually and said: "I will tell you the truth today, my body is getting worse day by day, and I have to plan for the future. Whether you listen to the government behind the curtain or teach you carefully, You must teach the young master well."

The emperor is probably crazy!Telling these things to her also means that she will never escape.

What else is a young master?Could it be that the emperor chose a little prince?

Regardless of that, self-help is the most important thing now, Miao Li asked in a panic: "Has the emperor thought about how the slaves will be with the King of Qin in the future?"

After finishing speaking, Miaoli felt that what she said was wrong. This was forcing the emperor to kill Zhou Shuxuan.

"Qin Wangzhen has his own arrangements, besides, you are the ones who will be scolded in the future, so what does it have to do with me?"

Is the emperor a bit too shameless?The person who was supposed to snatch it from his son actually wants his son to be scolded!

It seemed that she couldn't persuade her, so Miao Li had no choice but to say: "If the emperor insists on doing this, the slaves will only die."

The emperor expected that she would have such an attitude, and he had a countermeasure, "I received news from outside the Great Wall a few days ago, and it seems that there is news about your brother. It said that not only did he not die, but also because of his good looks and talents, the local people still talked with him. He got married. If I remember correctly, he seems to be the last incense of the Meng family."

Miao Li used to think that they were dead, and felt that she had nothing to worry about.But when she heard the good news at this time, she couldn't be happier, the emperor was threatening her.

Miao Li regards death as home, "The younger brother of the servant girl also knows the principles of ethics, so he will definitely agree with the servant girl. In order to protect the reputation of the emperor, the slave girl family will die without regret."

The emperor went on to say: "Your sister-in-law is more than eight months pregnant and will give birth soon. Your younger brother is a father for the first time, and now he is very happy."

Miao Li is hard-hearted, and she has to be moved at this time, after all, she is her brother.

"There is news about your other relatives in my family, such as your aunt and your little sister. What happens to them is all up to you."

Miao Li would definitely not agree to such a thing that a father accepts a son and a daughter-in-law, which is not as good as a beast, and would rather the jade be broken than the tiles.But if her family is included, the family she managed to survive...

"Think about it again, I don't want to force you."

Let him say all the good things, isn't this forced?

Miao Li was in a trance at this time, and she could barely stand up after holding on to the ground, "Your servant will leave."

"Who let you go, I let you think about it here."

Miaoli took half a step and had to back. She definitely did not do good in her previous life, and she has brought retribution in this life.

Why does everyone say she is a phoenix?Why doesn't she feel that she is a phoenix, she is just a little sparrow.

At the same time, Zhou Shu announced the account.

The emperor has sent someone to tell him that Miaoli will not go back today, so he should not wait.

Zhou Shuxuan's heart was in a mess, he had no intention of doing anything, and had already fallen asleep early.

When he said that he fell asleep, he just put himself upright on the bed, his eyes seemed to be supported by someone, and he couldn't close them no matter what.

Why did the emperor seek her for no reason?
Falling asleep only felt that the lights were too dazzling, and was about to call Wei Hai to come in and extinguish a candle.But I heard a small voice outside, "My lord, help me."

"Who?"

Zhou Shuxuan sat up and asked, but he didn't hear a reply, as if he left after saying that sentence.

The voice was too low, he couldn't hear it clearly, he could only hear it was a woman's voice.

Could it be that Miao Li secretly ran back from the emperor?

Thinking of the way Miaoli looked at him after eating, she felt a little pitiful and helpless.Concerned about it, Zhou Shuxuan can't analyze it properly now, the more he thinks about it, the more he feels that Miao Li is back.I also feel that it is impossible, Miao Li has been having trouble with him recently, and she will not call herself "I" in front of him.

"My lord?"

Wei Hai heard his voice from the outside and lifted the curtain to come in, and felt like he stepped on something as soon as he took a step.Looking at it by candlelight, it is a small piece of paper with words on it.

The guess is just a guess, Zhou Shuxuan just thought it was his own hallucination, and said: "I'm fine, you go out first."

Wei Hai took the piece of paper and stepped forward, and handed the piece of paper to Zhou Shuxuan, "The slave has something to do, look, my lord, this slave picked it up at the door."

Wei Hai brought a candlestick, and Zhou Shuxuan unfolded the paper to have a look.

"My lord, the emperor wants to kill my servant, I am afraid that my servant will not survive tomorrow. Please save my servant. The tent is not a place to talk, my servant is waiting for my lord in the grove beside the camp, Miao Li."

He wasn't hallucinating just now.

Zhou Shuxuan looked at Wei Hai and asked what he meant with his eyes.

"My lord, I can't go. I didn't bring any guards with me this time. It's too unsafe to go out now. My lord should stay in the camp. There are night guards inside."

Zhou Shuxuan held the piece of paper and frowned, he also knew that it was not safe to go out now, maybe someone lured him out on purpose.But it was about Miaoli, and he couldn't pretend that nothing happened.

After thinking about it again and again, Zhou Shuxuan propped himself up and sat up, and said, "Help me up, let's go."
