marriage gentleman

Chapter 89

After leaving Qinghuaxuan, Qi Guang asked, "Is Dexiang Palace... your mother's palace?"

Lu Li nodded.

Qi Guang sighed softly at this moment, and said, "I didn't expect Yun Zhen to become like this." Thinking about it, the previous time was a big blow to him.Lu Li said, "That's not his nature, but now he is being used as a knife."

When Qi Guang heard this, he was stunned and said, "Being used as a knife?"

Qi Guang, who didn't know much about the Great Wei Palace, thought about it, and didn't think of who the mastermind behind the scenes would be.She asked, "Could it be the person who took Yun Zhen away in Xiang County last time?"

Lu Li explained: "The person we found out and took Yun Zhen away is called Gu Shan. You have seen him before, and he is the envoy of Wei. The Gu family is quite close to the current empress. Gu Shan's mother is the empress's mother." niece."

Qi Guang said: "That means Yun Zhen was used as a knife by the Queen."

When the words fell, Qi Guang seemed to think of something, she said clearly: "No wonder." Now the two remaining princes of Great Wei are descended from Concubine De, no matter which one succeeds to the throne, it is not very important for the queen. wonderful.Especially the sixth prince, the sixth prince who grew up in a foreign country, whether he has a good personality or talent, the queen doesn't know.

If the queen wants to control a prince, she must choose an obedient and well-behaved one.

And Yun Zhen grew up in the palace since she was a child, and the queen knows everything she says and does.

Choose one of the two, the queen will definitely choose the one who knows everything, not to mention Yun Zhen is pure and kind, such a prince is best to be controlled.

Lu Li said: "I have no intention of the throne, nor do I want to compete with Yun Zhen."

Qi Guang said: "Wait until we bring Wan Wan out before we can discuss it in the long term." After a pause, she continued: "Maybe we can ask Su Chengyu, he did not truthfully report our affairs to Emperor Yuanzhen, and he is also a smart man after all. .”

He cleverly catered to Lu Li's wishes, and only picked what should be said to report to the emperor.Presumably, he was also afraid of offending Lu Li, after all, the emperor was about to die, and either Lu Li or Yun Zhen would ascend the throne in the future.Dexiang Palace.

Qi Guang was quite curious about Lu Li's mother.

According to what Lu Li said, Concubine De was biased towards her son. Back then, she loved the Fifth Prince too much, so she ignored the Sixth Prince. Later, she even blew the pillow beside the Emperor, replacing the Fifth Prince who was supposed to go to the Great Zhou Dynasty. .

There is a ten-year age difference between Lu Li and Yun Zhen. According to what Yun Zhen said, Concubine De gave birth to Yun Zhen after the fifth prince left.And Yun Zhen also complained about her mother, probably because of Concubine De's partiality.

When the fifth prince was around, she ignored the sixth prince.

After the fifth prince left, she began to miss the sixth prince.So much so that when the Twelfth Prince was born, she missed the Sixth Prince even more.No matter how he looked at it, Qi Guang felt that Lu Li's mother liked to be her elder brother's son, and it was a bit extreme, just like her mother Huizong.She never expected that she would use such a terrible method to deal with her own son, so that later Qi Xuan and her resentment arose.

When seeing Concubine De, Qi Guang couldn't help being a little stunned.

Contrary to her imagination, Concubine De was over fifty years old, but she was well maintained, at first glance she thought she was a beautiful woman in her thirties.After thinking about it in a blink of an eye, Qi Guang figured it out again.Concubine De was born so beautiful, no wonder the emperor fell in love with her at the first sight, climbed from the humble status of concubine to the current position of concubine De, and gave birth to three princes, just wait a little longer and she will become the biological mother of the future emperor, The queen mother of a country has a noble status.

The existence of De Fei is simply interpreting the best sparrow-turning-phoenix.

It's no wonder that Lu Li was born so good-looking, he followed his mother's appearance, and Yun Zhen followed his father's.If Yun Zhen had followed her mother's appearance, she would have been able to see through the relationship between Yun Zhen and Lu Li when she was in Da Zhou.

Concubine De's eyes were red, she looked at Lu Li, looked at him closely, without blinking her eyes, as if blinking would prevent him from seeing him.Lu Li saluted for a while, and said, "Mrs. Concubine Virtue is blessed and safe."

As soon as the words fell, Concubine De's tears rolled down from her eyes, rolling down one by one like dropped pearls.

"Zheng'er, are you still blaming your mother?"

Lu Li said indifferently: "It's no wonder, let's talk about it. The situation forced him back then, and fifth brother was so talented that he shouldn't have been sent to Dazhou as a hostage." He was still young and weak, so he should have been sent to Dazhou to die.

Concubine De said: "Zheng'er, it was my mother who was bad at the beginning. Now that you are back, don't worry about it anymore."

Lu Li asked, "Where's Wan Wan?"

Only then did Concubine De think of this, she wiped away her tears and said, "Wan Wan fell asleep just now, Bi Ru."

Yi Gong'e walked out holding the baby girl.

I haven't seen him for a few months, and Wan Wan has grown up a lot, with small arms and legs, looking at the pink face of his own doll, Qi Guang felt that the missing piece in his heart was gradually being filled.

It was at this time that Concubine De noticed Qi Guang.

She asked: "This is the girl you married in Dazhou?"

Lu Li said, "Yes."

Qi Guang made a half salute.

For Qi Guang, this is already the greatest gift.One must know that she never saluted Qi Xuan in Da Zhou.In her life, she has only kneeled down to her own parents, as well as Da Zhou's ancestors.Lu Li saluted Concubine De, and she naturally did the same.

But in the eyes of Concubine De, it was different.

She frowned, feeling a little displeased.

She hates Zhou people.

Had it not been for the disastrous defeat of Wei and the emperor of Zhou insisting on sending them hostages, she would not have been separated from her son for 20 years.Especially now that my son has brought back a man from Zhou, as a married woman, he dared to stand side by side with his husband-in-law, and when he saw her, he saluted very respectfully, and was actually quite casual.

She was already dissatisfied with Zhou people, but seeing Qi Guang like this, she felt even more dissatisfied.

When she saw Wan Wan before, she was not very happy either.

There is an unwritten custom in the Great Wei that the first child must have a boy, so that the children and grandchildren can prosper.But now the first child gave birth to a girl, and she was also born to Zhou people.Concubine De couldn't like her granddaughter.If it wasn't for Rong Zheng's sake, she would even have thought of killing her granddaughter quietly.

Qi Guang has no way of knowing De Fei's thoughts.

At this moment, she has never noticed Concubine De's displeasure. When she saw Wan Wan, she had only her in her heart and eyes.How about Concubine De, she didn't want to know at all.Anyway, with Lu Li around, Lu Li will take care of it for her.

Qi Guang didn't notice it, but Lu Li did.

He said: "Her surname is Qi, and her single name is Yue. She is the wife of my matchmaker." At this time, Lu Li said to Qi Guang again: "Wan Wan has been found, you go back to the house to rest, and I will come back later." back."

As soon as Qi Guang heard it, he knew that Lu Li had something to say to Concubine De in private.

She nodded, and made another half salute with Concubine De, then left Dexiang Palace.

As soon as Qi Guang left, Concubine De took a few steps forward and held Lu Li's hand. She was so sincere that she couldn't be more sincere: "Zheng'er, His Majesty intends to pass on the throne to you, and you will be a member of the Great Wei in half a year at most." King of the country. In the past 20 years, Your Majesty and I have been ashamed of you, but now you are back, this is your father's best compensation for you."

Thinking that her son was about to ascend the throne, she became the queen mother of a country.

There was a smile in Concubine De's eyes again.

She held Lu Li's hand tightly.

"It's just," her voice paused, "the empress of Great Wei can only be a Wei person, and Great Zhou is our enemy. If you make Zhou a queen, what will the people of Great Wei think of you? There are many women, many more beautiful than Qi Yue, not to mention more gentle and virtuous than her. As long as you like it, there are 3000 beauties in the harem, and you can take as much as you want. Why worry about not having a wife? The ones that Qi Yue can give birth to can be found everywhere in Mingyang City."

Concubine De's words were full of dislike for Qi Guang.

There was no expression on Lu Li's face.

He slowly broke free from Concubine De's hands, lowered his hand slowly, clenched his fist slowly, and then let go.

There was no ups and downs in his voice.

"She is the wife I am married to, and I swore to God that if I abandon her, I will die forever."

Concubine De couldn't hear Lu Li's persistence.

She pursed her lips, her voice softened, and she said again: "It's not that she is not good. If you are an emperor, she can be a favorite concubine, but she is lacking for empress. After you have seen our nobles in Mingyang City Girls, you will know how good they are."

Lu Li suddenly asked, "Mother, do you want to be the Queen Mother?"

When Concubine De was about to say "I thought about it", her complexion suddenly turned pale.She understood what Lu Li meant. For a woman, his son was hinting at her past identity.

His calm expression seemed to say, "If she is not worthy to be the queen mother, you are not worthy to be the queen mother either."

Concubine De's heart trembled.

Lu Li said: "Mother think about it carefully, and my son will leave first."
