Your Majesty the Empress, I am really not a traitor!

"Your Majesty, you are very clear that it is impossible for me to do such a thing. Even if I have the courage, I will not presume."

Qin Ji said so.

However, now it is obvious that Xia Yuxiao will not believe him, or at least on the surface, she will not appear to believe him.

"Qin Ji, because of your contribution to Daxia, I can deal with this matter lightly," Xia Yuxiao stared into Qin Ji's eyes and said, "But at the same time, I also hope that you can take some of the responsibility. responsibility."

Good guy, don't listen to the speech at all, so you just insist on going on?

Qin Ji was a little amused by the mother and daughter.

Although he roughly knew the plan of the other party, Qin Ji still admired the two mothers and daughters. After all, there are very few people who can make such sacrifices.

"I would like to take the crime of breaking into the palace, but I really can't admit the so-called sharing the bed with Your Majesty. Nowadays, it is known all over the world that I assist Your Majesty to do my best. If this matter is known to outsiders, I will leave a bad taste Eternal."

Qin Ji said very excitedly.

Of course, he doesn't care if he has a bad reputation through the ages, he doesn't care what the posterity thinks of him after he dies, he just wants to test the other party's determination with such words.

He does resent having his marriage controlled by others.

However, he also knows that his marriage is destined to be a very valuable political resource.As early as when he was born in the Qin family, such a fate was already doomed.Therefore, he actually doesn't care about his marriage being "sold", what he cares about is how much his marriage can be exchanged for.

He can roughly understand why Xia Yuxiao wants to marry him. This is an extremely simple political issue. If he marries Xia Yuxiao, it means that the power of the empire will be closely linked. Most of the centrists will lean towards him and Xia Yuxiao.

This will greatly reduce the cost of dealing with these centrists in the future.

Moreover, in the internal struggle, this kind of marriage can also stop the mouths of those who were eager to establish a prince not long ago-Your Majesty is already married, so naturally the prince should be left to the unborn child. In this way, You gang of outsiders still dare to compete for the throne with His Majesty's future children?

Xia Yuxiao may not really like her. Although he also has some feelings for Xia Yuxiao, but it is not enough to marry.

But marriages, especially political marriages, how many of them really have feelings from the beginning?Just playing around.

This is the reality. There are still undercurrents surging in the current Great Xia, and complete stability is urgently needed. Therefore, this marriage is possible.

But how much determination does Xia Yuxiao have?He wants to know.

Chapter 63 Time to Consider

"If you're worried about the legacy, then don't do such a thing." Seeing that Qin Ji's attitude was a little loose, Xia Yuxiao softened her tone, and then continued, "Tell me, what do you think should be done?"

"Your Majesty, I believe that this matter is not my responsibility."

"What do you mean?"

Xia Yuxiao frowned and asked.

"It's nothing interesting. I just thought it was funny. In my memory, I lost consciousness after drinking a cup of tea from the Queen Mother. After that, I woke up again and was already lying on His Majesty's bed," Qin Ji said. Said, "Your Majesty, don't you think that a person who has lost consciousness can run over and lie on your majesty's bed by himself?"

"You mean, you suspect the Queen Mother?"

Xia Yuxiao's complexion darkened, and she asked.

"It's not that I suspect the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother just invites me to drink tea, so what bad intentions can I have? It's just that I'm very puzzled that I passed out after drinking tea." Qin Ji said.

"Qin Taiwei, you don't want to be cheap and act like a good boy. What you have done has long been a capital offense. His Majesty still spares your life because of your merits. If you are so obsessed..."

"If you're so obsessed with obsession, President Song will do it yourself, right?"

Qin Ji smiled, and then opened his hands: "My lord, it depends on whether you have the ability."

After saying this, he suddenly gave Lingyan a wink.

At that moment, Lingyan swung her knife and jumped out without hesitation!

"not good!"

Song Jingqing immediately realized that she swung her knife to try to stop the opponent, but just when the blade was about to touch Lingyan, Lingyan's body was as soft as a loach, and "slid" past the edge of the blade.

Then, she appeared behind the Queen Mother!

"do not move."

It sounded like there was no threatening tone in these two words, and Lingyan's face was very calm when she said these two words, but the sharp knife was already on the Queen Mother's neck.

"Lingyan, what are you doing!?"

The atmosphere at the scene has completely changed from the original tense situation to a powder keg. As long as there is any disturbance, the current stalemate will completely explode.

"It's nothing, Your Majesty," Qin Ji said suddenly, "I just hope to have a good talk with Your Majesty and the Queen Mother. I have already explained the situation before, but I really don't know why it appeared on Your Majesty's bed. If Your Majesty and the Queen Mother No matter what, I don’t want to believe what I said, so I have no other choice, I am willing to die to prove the truth.”

When Qin Ji said this, he kept his eyes on Xia Yuxiao in front of him, but he ignored Song Jingqing.

In fact, at the moment when the queen mother was held hostage by Lingyan, Song Jingqing had a chance to kidnap Qin Ji... However, considering Qin Ji's force value, it is really a question mark whether this kidnapping can be successful.

At this time, it was Xia Yuxiao who really felt a little difficult to adapt to. She never expected that Qin Ji would directly tear his face apart.

Indeed, during this period of time, Qin Ji seemed to be willing to compromise with her and make mutual concessions, but no matter how he usually compromised, if his interests were directly violated, he would tear off the mask of loyalty and show his fangs Come.

It is said that he is willing to prove the truth with death, but if he really rips his face completely, it is unknown whether he wants to die himself or let others die.

This is the same reason as "two people lying dead, bleeding five steps".

"Qin Ji, let's all calm down."

Xia Yuxiao quickly analyzed the situation. In this situation, anyone with a normal mind would not fight Qin Ji to the end.Lingyan is still hijacking the queen mother. If she is irrational, the queen mother will be gone. Maybe in the end, even if she wins the battle, Qin Ji's vacancy will be filled by other ministers in the future. is bad.

"I know that you are very wronged now. To be honest, I also hope to believe you, but you see, things have happened, and you are indeed on my bed... This matter is always true, right? "

"You feel innocent, and so do I. This matter is not an honorable thing to me. I think we should talk a little bit. Now, it has happened. I really can't bear the dragon guards' silence. Why don't we discuss a more suitable method."

Hearing that Xia Yuxiao's attitude eased, Qin Ji also nodded: "Your Majesty can keep calm, I am very grateful. Just like what Your Majesty said, no matter whether I did it on purpose or not, this matter has already happened. This is a fact. So, what does His Majesty want you to do?"

Xia Yuxiao looked at the knife on the empress dowager's neck, and thought for a moment:

"Since it's done, I still hope that you can take responsibility, even though I know you may not like it very much... The recent establishment of a reserve has really disturbed me, and you and I have been getting along all year round. They are still a bit congenial, why don't you try the way of marriage."

"Ok?"

Qin Ji's eyes widened all of a sudden.

He looked Xia Yuxiao up and down.

He roughly knew that this matter was actually instigated by the Queen Mother herself. Although Xia Yuxiao said it, she might not like this kind of forced marriage in her heart, and she still resisted it in her heart, so Qin Ji was ready to pay a little price to get out ready.

But looking at it now, His Majesty is coming for real? !

But... As a courtier, he can't really accept this marriage, he still has to drag it.

"Well, may I ask Your Majesty, who do you want to arrange to marry with the minister?"

After saying this, Xia Yuxiao silently stared into his eyes, making him a little terrified.

"You don't have to play dumb." She said, "Why, do you think they don't match each other?"

"This... I dare not! How can I and Your Majesty..."

"What's so strange about marriage? The Empress Dowager and the late Emperor were not in the same family at the beginning, so why not?" Xia Yuxiao waved her hand, "If you are not satisfied, then forget it. Today your bodyguard will withdraw the sword, and Chief Envoy Song will also I will not pursue this matter, you walk your Yangguan Road, I cross my single-plank bridge. You and I turn a deaf ear to the words of the court, and today's incident has never happened."

hiss......

Don't!

It sounds like "you go, I don't hold grudges".

What the hell!Today, Qin Ji and Lingyan basically offended all the crimes of treason and immorality that should be offended. They "broke" the emperor's bedroom to share the bed with the emperor, and their guards broke into the bedroom without authorization, kidnapping the queen mother and threatening the emperor...

According to Daxia's law, even if he had nine heads, it would not be enough to chop off.You know, this is the emperor, and she is also a female emperor.

If your girlfriend says to you "I'm not mad, you go" and you really turn away...

Congratulations, you will enjoy the hate buff.

"This..." Qin Ji looked at Lingyan.

Lingyan also felt that Qin Ji was looking at her, but she seemed to have misunderstood something, and the knife in her hand pressed slightly hard on the Queen Mother's neck.

"I'm super, don't!"

Auntie, if your knife is deeper, we will really be gging today!You don't really want to fight all the way out of the palace from the bedroom, do you?

"Young master, you order, I'm ready."

Lingyan said very firmly.

Qin Ji hurriedly called to stop, then turned around and saluted Xia Yuxiao:

"Your Majesty's words are too sudden to my minister. Can you give me some time to think about it?"

"Yes, tomorrow morning."

She gave such a deadline.

Qin Ji looked at her and wanted to say something, but Xia Yuxiao quickly added:

"Because around noon tomorrow, some ministers in the DPRK will find out about it—I don't want the matter to escalate, understand?"

"Understood. Tomorrow morning, I must give His Majesty an answer."

"As for the Empress Dowager...I don't know whether what Qin Ji said is true or not, whether it's really the Empress Dowager's tea has a problem, Chief Envoy Song, send someone to investigate the Palace of Compassion and Harmony. Tell me immediately if you find anything."

"Yes."

Chapter 64 Stairs

Watching Qin Ji and Lingyan leave, the queen mother touched her neck.

There was already a bloodstain left by Lingyan's blade. It looked like he would have to wear clothes with a higher collar when going out for a week.

"How is it? Has the car overturned?"

Xia Yuxiao said expressionlessly.

"...You didn't tell me that Lingyan is so good at fighting."

The Queen Mother was silent for a moment, then said.

She had met the former Lingyan a few times. At that time, the child's fighting power was not so scary. Moreover, she did not expect that Lingyan would be so loyal that she would directly enter the bedroom and the Palace of Mercy for Qin Ji.

You know, these actions are tantamount to mentioning the death penalty package, and if you don't do it, you may even face the punishment of Ling Chi, which has been abolished by Daxia for a long time.
