Datang all-rounder

Chapter 46

Wang Ke's family had dinner without food, and Wang Si and his son returned to the study. When they wanted to discuss how to deal with this matter, Mrs. Wang led Li Ke straight to the study.

When Wang Ke saw Li Ke, he jumped up and said loudly, "Your Highness, I said you might come tomorrow, but I didn't expect you to come today."

Li Ke and Wang Si sat down on the chairs after seeing the ceremony, and said with a smile: "I said brother-in-law, this son-in-law is not easy to be, haha."

Wang Ke stretched out his hand and punched: "If you fart, let it go, I didn't see me being so anxious."

Seeing that Wang Ke and Li Ke were so casual, Wang Si hurriedly said: "Ke'er, why are you talking to His Highness, why don't you hurry up and apologize to His Highness."

Li Ke said disapprovingly: "Uncle Wang, it doesn't matter. We two brothers are used to it. Uncle go to rest first, I will talk to Brother Wang."

Seeing that Li Ke asked him to leave first, Wang Si knew that there was something about the two of them that he didn't want him to know, and he was afraid that it would be difficult for them to talk freely here, so he also left.

Seeing that Wang Si had left, Li Ke asked, "Brother Wang, today my father asked who you liked, why didn't you name Sister Nanping?"

Wang Ke sighed and said, "I don't know the princess' plan yet? I'm afraid that if I speak out, it will damage the princess' reputation."

Li Ke said with a smile: "I'm not afraid now. I came out of the palace and went to Nanping's sister to explain the matter clearly. Nanping's sister heard that brother Wang would rather lose his head for her than obey the imperial edict. She was so moved." They all cried. Ask me to speak to Brother Wang, and I will never fail Brother Wang’s kindness in this life. But in the matter of treating Sister Lanling, I hope Brother Wang will be careless and don’t hurt Sister Lanling’s heart.”

Wang Ke said with a bitter face: "I can't do anything about it. I can't do anything about it. You must know that what the emperor said can't be taken back. Ke can only resist the order with death and hope that the emperor will take it back." It’s just whether it’s successful or not, but it’s not up to Ke to make the decision, so what to do.”

Li Ke also sighed: "Yes, this matter is really difficult. Isn't Brother Wang very quick when he thinks of a way for Ke? Now that things have happened to him, he has to think of a way to do it. "

Wang Ke smiled wryly: "The doctor hasn't healed himself yet, what can I do? I really have nothing to do now. This matter is difficult. Unless..."

Hearing what Wang Ke meant, Li Ke seemed to have a turning point, so he hurriedly asked, "Unless what? Let's listen to it first, and if there is Ke can help, I will do my best to do it."

Wang Ke shook his head and said: "Forget it, this kind of possibility is impossible, and it is vain to say it, so let's not say it."

Li Ke was in a hurry. Since Wang Ke met him, Wang Ke took the risk of beheading and tried his best to help him in his own affairs, which moved him very much.Seeing that Wang Ke is in trouble now, he also wants to do his part.But with Wang Ke's current attitude, he has nowhere to use his energy.

Li Ke was really in a hurry, so he said, "Is it possible to say it first? If you don't do it, it's impossible to know. You say it first, and we will discuss it in the long run."

Wang Ke was afraid of death, but he didn't want to give up Nanping. Seeing that Li Ke was talking about this, he had no choice but to say: "Unless the emperor is merciful, and on the premise of not changing what he said, I will decree that Princess Nanping will be included." Get married. Do you think it's possible? It's simply impossible!"

Hearing this, Li Ke couldn't help shaking his body and said: "This is unlikely. There is no precedent for these two princesses marrying the same person. This is really difficult."

Wang Ke spread his hands, shrugged and said, "So it's useless for me to talk about it. Now I really have nothing to do. Now I may have to wait at home to die."

Li Ke has never seen Wang Ke so discouraged, but he has nothing to do, so he can only comfort him: "Brother Wang, isn't there still two days left, you can think of a way. Ke will go around and see if I can do it." There is a turning point." He stood up and wanted to leave home.

Wang Ke suddenly remembered something, and quickly stopped Li Ke and asked, "Your Highness, the emperor called you into the palace, can you tell the emperor clearly?"

Li Ke replied strangely: "Of course Ke has told the truth and the original. Why do you ask this, Brother Wang?"

Wang Ke didn't answer, and asked again: "What's the emperor's expression after you finished speaking?"

Li Ke carefully recalled the situation at that time, and replied: "Father was still very angry. After I finished speaking, Father didn't look angry at all. Instead, his face was a little embarrassed. He didn't say anything, just Wave me away."

Wang Ke nodded, did not speak, just sat there in a daze.

Li Ke pushed Wang Ke and said, "Okay, don't think about it. I'll go back first. Tomorrow, you stay at home and don't go anywhere. I'll walk around and come to you if I need anything."

Wang Ke sent Li Ke out of the mansion, watched him walk away slowly, and returned to his room listlessly.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Dongyue saw Wang Ke coming in, threw herself into Wang Ke's arms and burst into tears.Wang Ke already knew about this matter today, and Dongyue couldn't help crying when she thought that Wang Ke would die if she didn't get it right this time.Just as she slowly stopped crying, when she saw Wang Ke coming in, she began to cry again.

Wang Ke stroked Dongyue's hair, forced a smile and said, "Don't cry, it's nothing. Husband can solve it."

Dongyue raised her crying face, looked at Wang Ke and said, "My husband, I know that my husband is a person who values ​​love and righteousness, but in this situation, you should listen to the emperor and don't resist the order. I believe Princess Nanping will I understand your husband's intentions."

Wang Ke sighed, and said to Dongyue: "Don't worry, Dongyue, your husband has his own measure."

"Well, Dongyue believes in her husband." Dongyue buried her head in Wang Ke's arms and replied in a muffled voice.

Tossing and turning, Wang Ke didn't sleep well all night, and the family started to be busy early in the morning, so he fell asleep in a daze.Dongyue made an exception and didn't ask Wang Ke to get up for breakfast.

I don't know how long it took, Dongyue ran in in a panic, woke up Wang Ke and said, "Husband, get up quickly, the two princesses, Xiangcheng and Changle, are here. Madam is waiting for husband to pass by in the study."

Wang Ke asked half asleep, "Why did the two princesses come so early in the morning?"

Dongyue said in surprise: "It's already afternoon, my husband thought it was morning. Hurry up, don't keep the two princesses waiting."

Wang Ke hurriedly put on and returned her clothes, and went straight to the study without washing her face.

When I entered the door, I saw that Mrs. Wang was talking with the two princesses, and hurriedly said: "Wang Ke pays respects to the two princesses, what do you want the princess to order?"

After Xiangcheng and Changle glanced at each other, Xiangcheng looked up at Mrs. Wang and said: "Our sisters want to talk to Mrs. Wang, please please Madam."

Mrs. Wang understood, and hurriedly saluted and left the study.Before leaving, he glanced at Wang Ke with concern.

After Mrs. Wang had left, Xiangcheng smiled and said to Wang Ke: "Lord Wang is so affectionate and righteous. He will not hesitate to resist the decree for my sister Nanping. If the father is really determined to defy the decree because you don't marry Nanping, he will kill you. I wonder if Lord Wang dares to resist the order?"

Wang Ke knew that the two of them came here to persuade him to marry Lanling and give up Nanping, so he said firmly: "Ke swears that he will marry Nanping, and no one can make Ke change his decision. If you can't marry Nanping, Ke is determined to resist the decree, even if the head falls on the neck, she will not hesitate!"

Princess Changle said coldly: "Then aren't you afraid of hurting Lanling's heart?"

Wang Ke sighed: "Princess Lanling is still young, and she will understand in the future. Princess Nanping has already suffered a blow. I can't let her suffer such a blow again. Ever since Ke saw Nanping for the first time, she swore in her heart that she would marry Nanping. , this oath must not be abandoned just because you want to lose your life, it is definitely not what a man does. I, Wang Ke, was born a man, how could I do such a thing!"

Princess Xiangcheng sighed: "My lord Wang is so infatuated, I am ashamed. Our sisters will intercede for your lord Wang, please help me."

Wang Ke didn't know who said this to the two princesses, and asked tentatively: "I don't know if this is what the Third Highness said to the two princesses?"

Xiangcheng said with a smile: "It's the third brother. The third brother came to my mansion this morning, talked about it with me, and praised your lord's righteousness, so I came to you with sister Changle. I came to see your king. How determined is your lordship? Second, I will tell you that there is still room for change in this matter. Please don't worry, my lord. The third brother has already gone to the palace when he came out of my house. Our sisters are going to the palace to meet with you after you leave. The queen intercedes."

After speaking, she stood up and said to Wang Ke: "That's the end of the conversation, please wait for the news in the mansion. For the sake of sister Nanping, we sisters will do our best to find a perfect solution."

Wang Ke hurriedly saluted and said, "There are also two princesses, Ke is very grateful."

Princess Changle jokingly said: "Don't thank me in advance, if you can't do it, your head will fall off, but now you can thank me in vain."

Wang Ke hurriedly said: "It's up to people to plan things, but it's up to God to make things happen. The princess should be thankful for her kindness. If it really doesn't work, thank you at this time will become a real thank you."

After sending Princess Erwei out, she turned around and saw Mrs. Wang, two aunts and Dongyue standing there looking at her.Wang Ke stepped forward pretending to be relaxed and said: "It's okay, the two princesses are here to help me find a way. Now they are going to the palace to find the empress."

A group of people felt relieved after hearing this.

At night when the lights were on, Wang Si came back from the outside, and his family immediately surrounded him.

Knowing what everyone was doing, Wang Si shook his hand and said, "Let's eat, there's nothing to do today. I just heard that the third highness and a group of princesses went to the palace today to look for the empress. The emperor just came back after he was busy sending troops. It's too late. If there is anything, we won't know until tomorrow."

Wang Ke looked at the whole family worrying about their own affairs, felt really sorry in her heart, and couldn't help but said: "It's all my fault, I made my parents and aunts worry."

Wang Si smiled and said: "Ke'er, I am happy for your behavior. Don't blame yourself too much. Auspicious people have their own phenomena. Now that so many His Royal Highnesses and princesses are running for you, it will definitely be resolved. I believe that for you Father, the emperor is not an unreasonable person, he will be fine. Come, let's eat."

Another sleepless night, because of continuous insomnia, Wang Ke's eyes were sunken, and his beard was stubbled. Because of his lack of appetite, his face, which had not much flesh, looked thinner, and his cheekbones were exposed.

When Li Ke came, Wang Ke was lying listlessly on the recliner under the eaves in a daze.

Seeing Wang Ke like this, Li Ke sighed, pulled Wang Ke up and walked out.

Wang Ke didn't make a sound, he drove the car and let Li Ke let him drive wherever he wanted.

After driving all the way to Nanping Mansion, Wang Ke became a little sober, and couldn't help asking: "Why did Your Highness call me to the princess?"

Li Ke pulled Wang Ke and said as he walked, "Go in first, let's talk later."

Maybe because he heard the sound of the car, Nan Ping ran out of the house. When he saw Wang Ke like this, he couldn't care less about his reserve, and threw himself into Wang Ke's arms and burst into tears.

Li Ke coughed twice at the side before Nan Ping left Wang Ke and stood up straight, but still stared at Wang Ke intently with teary eyes.

Li Ke said: "Let's go in first, Sister Lanling is still inside."

A few people saved it and walked in quickly.When Lan Ling saw Wang Ke, he also knew that Comrade Li Er promised himself to Wang Ke, and lowered his head shyly, no longer the original appearance.

Wang Ke stepped forward to salute, Lan Ling hurriedly stood up to return the salute.

Li Ke hurriedly greeted: "Okay, okay. There are no outsiders here, so just speak out if you have anything to say."

Wang Ke didn't know what to say, but just looked at Nanping with both eyes, unwilling to move away for a moment.

Nanping gritted his teeth and said, "Mu Dong, your father has issued an order, so you should agree. Nanping knows your heart, and will never forget your affection. Why do you have to fight for Nanping and father?" ?”

Wang Ke shook his head, and said to Nanping: "It's not possible, if it's like this, I don't need to resist the order. I just accepted the order to thank you."

Lan Ling knew the reason behind this, now seeing the two of them like this, he couldn't help but say: "Sister, let's go and beg Father, it's fine if we marry together!"

Li Ke smiled wryly and said, "Silly sister, if it was so easy, why would there be so many things now?"

Lan Ling said puzzledly: "Why not? Brother's mother and concubine are also sisters who married father and emperor as concubines. Why can't we?"

This question really stopped Li Ke.

Indeed, Li Ke's mother and concubine married Comrade Li Er together with his younger sister, and they are all noble concubines in the harem now.

Seeing that Li Ke was silent, Lan Ling stood up with a "huh", and said to the three of them, "I'm going back to the palace now, and I'll go talk to the empress and my father!"

After finishing speaking, he ran out, and the three of them didn't have time to stop Zhu
Wang Ke saw that he had nothing to say, so he said to Nanping: "Princess, Ke has nothing to do now, please forgive me. But what Ke wants to tell the princess is that as a princess, Ke will never submit to anyone. Even if it is life, I will not hesitate."

After listening to Wang Ke's confession, Nanping lowered his head and thought for a long time, then raised his head to Wang Ke, and said firmly: "The third brother and sisters are running up and down for Nanping; Mu Dong treats me rather than die. Nanping should also I have shown something! Nanping will enter the palace now, and I want to show my heart to my father and empress. Even if I don’t want the title of princess, as long as I am allowed to marry into the royal family, even if I am a concubine, Nanping is willing!"

After speaking, he turned his head and said to Li Ke: "Please also ask the third brother to accompany Mu Dong back, be careful on the way, and don't let him have any accidents. The younger sister will go to the palace right now."

Li Ke nodded.The three of them came out together, Nanping went to the palace, Li Ke accompanied Wang Ke back to the palace, settled Wang Ke, and then went to the palace to inquire about news.

When Wang Si came back in the evening, he said to Wang Ke as soon as he entered the door: "It's strange. Today, the emperor issued an order to take back Princess Nanping's princess mansion. Except for keeping the title of Princess Nanping, everything else will be taken back, and Princess Nanping will be moved back to the palace immediately. wish"

Wang Ke was stunned, not knowing what this meant, whether it was good news or bad news.Hurry up and send someone to Li Ke's mansion to see if Li Ke has returned to the mansion.

Not long after, Li Ke came over with his servants and yelled as soon as he entered the mansion: "This is too disrespectful of me! I wanted to come back after eating, but now you have to ask someone to look for you before you have a bite." No, you have to pay me for today's meal!"

Wang Ke said eagerly: "Tell me what's going on first. If it's a good thing, I'll cook for you; if it's not, you can go home and eat right away."

Li Ke hurriedly said: "Good deed, good deed! Hurry up and do it. I'll explain it to you after dinner."

Wang Ke still didn't believe it, and asked again: "What a good thing?"

Li Ke became impatient: "It's a good thing! Do it quickly, I won't talk about it if I'm hungry!"

Only then did Wang Ke feel relieved and ran to the kitchen.After a while, a table of food was put on the table, and the three of them sat down. Li Ke was not polite, and ate the food while drinking.Wang Ke really didn't dare to urge him at this time, afraid that if he really didn't talk about it, his heart wouldn't fall into his stomach.

After finally waiting for Li Ke to put down his chopsticks, Wang Ke hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"

Li Ke pointed to the dishes on the table and asked, "Aren't you going to eat some? You haven't even touched a bite."

Wang Si smiled beside him and said, "Your Highness, don't tease him, just talk about it quickly. If you don't tell him, he won't be able to eat it."

"Nanping only keeps the title, everything else will be taken back, and you will be moved back to the palace immediately, do you know about it?" Li Ke asked slowly.

Wang Ke said impatiently: "Got it, I just want to ask you what's going on."

Li Ke said unhurriedly: "Today, Lanling and Nanping entered the palace one after the other, and they talked about it with the empress, which further showed their attitude. The previous princesses also took turns interceding with you. Finally let The Queen's heart was moved. After she came down to court, the Queen talked with the father for a long time, and the father called Mr. Fang and Mr. Du to discuss it."

Wang Si interrupted and said: "Yes, the emperor is talking to us. Eunuch Yang said that the empress would like to invite the emperor to go in. After entering, he came out and sent Mr. Fang and Mr. Du to go in. After a long time, he came out. I issued an order to ask the two adults, but no one will say anything."

Li Ke said with a smile: "I guess this matter is the idea of ​​Master Du and Master Du. In this way, Nanping has nothing to do with the former Wang Jingzhi family. Moving back to live in the palace means that Nanping is now just a family. A princess waiting to be married can marry at any time."

Wang Ke still didn't understand, and asked again: "What is the relationship between Nanping's marriage and the princess mansion that took her in?"

Li Ke rolled his eyes and had to explain patiently: "Only a married princess can build a princess mansion outside. You said that Nanping still lives in the current princess mansion, is it possible for her to marry again? She still has a head on like that." It's the name of a widow of the royal family!"

Only then did Wang Ke understand, but in the blink of an eye he asked again: "Then what did Lanling say, the emperor won't let people say that he backtracked, right?"

Li Ke was so angry that he laughed and scolded: "You are such a rascal. Do you really want to marry my two younger sisters? But I don't know. I think my father will definitely announce you to the court tomorrow. If you go, it will be fine." Do you know everything?"

Wang Si heard that the matter was settled, and it didn't matter which princess the emperor asked Wang Ke to marry, as long as Wang Ke could save his life, he would be satisfied, so he hurriedly said: "Ke'er, don't you know everything when you go to court tomorrow? Don't worry. "

Li Ke said with a smile: "I've finished talking, and I'm full after eating, you should send me back."

After Li Ke said this, Wang Ke felt a little hungry. He grabbed the chopsticks and said while eating: "Why panic, I will send you off after I finish eating. You can go by yourself if you can't wait."

Li Ke laughed out loud.
