pampering wife

Chapter 116

The Guanlan Hall was silent, the emperor's face was very ugly, Jun Li bowed and stood in front of the case, but didn't say anything.

It took a long time for the emperor to calm down, flipping through the papers on the case randomly, picked one of them and looked at it for a while, as if thinking of something, he told Junli: "Tomorrow, you will go to the Tribute Court of the Ministry of Rites to inspect in person. Besides, this is Cao Yu Take a look at the excerpts in history."

Junli was ordered to read it, and it was an excerpt on the impeachment of Shangshuling He Jiuling.Junli has seen this kind of excerpt a few times, but the He family has been in power for many years and has deep roots, so impeachment is useless.Jun Li could probably guess what the emperor was thinking, so he replied, "I will send people to investigate these things."

The emperor nodded.The crown prince and the second prince were fighting each other, and each had their own paranoia. This matter taught Jun Li that he could feel more at ease.He turned his eyes to the "Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains Picture" again, a little lost in thought.

Junli turned to the front of the case, knelt down and said, "I have one more thing, I would like to ask Father for permission."

"Say."

"My son has someone he likes, and he wants to marry her as his concubine." He changed his address and his tone became softer, imperceptibly adding a bit of father-son affection.However, between kowtow and salute, it was a very solemn attitude.

"Which family's lady is it?" the emperor was surprised.Jun Li is nearly twenty years old, and he hasn't gotten married for a long time. He still stubbornly rejected the few things that the noble concubine had brought.Who would have thought that he suddenly became enlightened at this moment and thought about getting married?

Jun Li knelt straight, with a faint smile on his face, "She is not a lady, but she is tough and lively, smart and intelligent. Although she has gone through many twists and turns and wronged her, she is still bright and kind, and even the Queen is full of praise." After boasting for a while, the emperor became curious, "Which family's daughter is it?" Originally, the noble concubine should worry about this matter, but since Jun Li mentioned it, the emperor naturally has to care.What's more, when Jun Li mentioned it so solemnly, there might be hidden secrets behind it.

Sure enough, Jun Li's next sentence made the emperor almost dumbfounded - "It's the orphan of General Qu Heng, named Qing Mei."

"Qu Heng!" The emperor stood up in shock, "Bold!"

"Father thinks she is the daughter of a criminal minister?"

"Not only is she the daughter of a criminal minister, but she is also a person who escaped from the law. I sentenced Qu Heng's family to beheaded back then!"

"My son understands. But father...do you really hope that General Qu will die in vain without leaving any blood?" He raised his head straight, with a pleading look in his eyes.Seeing that the emperor was still angry, he continued: "My son knows that this is embarrassing for you, but although my son did not participate in what happened back then, father, you know the ins and outs. General Qu is not dead, shouldn't you be happy? What?" He said something that might offend Longlin, but because of his soft tone, and the father-son affection he always cared for the emperor, the emperor did not get angry.

Junli said again: "It is said that people are divided into groups, and those who can get close to each other must have similar temperaments. You are very clear about the temperaments of Mr. He and Mr. Hanzhang, and Mr. Hanzhang's two children have good character. Qingmei Back then when I was living in Wancheng, I got along very closely with the He family, which is a testament to his aspirations." He knew the emperor's feelings for the He family, so he used it to impress him, "When my son searched for this picture of mountains and rivers, Qingmei helped a lot from it. , is a warm-hearted and kind woman.”

After the trial, the emperor sat silently, tasting the meaning of his words.After a while, he suddenly said, "You met her because of this?"

Jun Li nodded and admitted, "This is why my son and I became attached to each other." After a pause, he added, "If you want to come here in the dark, it's God's will."

The emperor didn't make a sound, and Jun Li also knew that the news was too sudden, and he never thought that the emperor would agree now.This situation was already beyond his expectation, seeing the emperor looking over, Jun Li couldn't help but feel his heart ache.

"I have a headache, you can kneel down." The emperor waved his hand.

"My son, please leave. Please take care of the dragon's body." Jun Li bowed deeply, and then exited respectfully.After leaving the Guanlan Temple, the sun was shining outside and the weather was fine. A row of white doves flew by in the sky, which inexplicably made people feel good.When Jiang Quan saw him coming out, he saluted again, and said with a smile: "Just now the noble concubine brought lotus seed soup, and I heard that the prince is inside, so I asked the old slave to tell the prince, please go to Yuxiu Palace."

"Trouble me, father-in-law." Junli turned and headed west, towards Yuxiu Palace.

Concubine Xiao Wei's family is rich and rich, Yuxiu Palace is not as spacious as the queen's palace, but the furnishings inside are exquisite and majestic, she is the only person in this palace who has been favored by the Jiaofang.

She was born gracefully and gracefully, with a light air, and at the age of 37, her skin was still delicate. Even though many young girls entered the palace, her graceful dancing posture was still unique in the palace.What is rare is that she is soberly and self-sufficient under the unparalleled grace. In addition to serving the emperor tenderly, she spends her spare time talking with the imperial concubine Wei to amuse herself, playing chess and planting flowers, and the battles in the palace are ups and downs. Staying out of things can make the emperor feel refreshed when getting along.

Of course, her comfort is inseparable from the protection of her elder sister, Concubine Wei Gui.
