Chapter 48 The Emperor Arrives
Soon, Zhang Ning's father and son were surrounded by layers as soon as they arrived at the palace gate, and the sword pointed at their throat, just when Zhang Li thought that he would die here.
Suddenly, a burst of applause was heard, and the officers and soldiers on both sides automatically split into a path, and the bright yellow clothes of the people who came were particularly dazzling. "Okay, good, the Zhang family, it's really amazing, even the palace dares to force it, is it that I, the emperor, are going to give it to you?"
The emperor looked at the two people sarcastically, and the displeasure on his face was self-evident. As soon as he saw the emperor, the patriarch quickly pulled Zhang Li to kneel, "Don't Xiao minister Zhang Yan and his son Zhang Li, long live my emperor, long live, long live." "If it was before, the steps would have come down, and today the emperor has to ask them to kneel and talk.
"Long live me, I'm afraid I'm going to be gone today!" Although there was a smile on his face, there was no atmosphere of laughter. The temperature around him dropped sharply, making the people around him shiver.
"Where is the emperor's words. The patriarch stretched out his hand to wipe the non-existent sweat and said with a smile. After all, a life is still in his hands.
The emperor looked at the two people condescendingly, undisguised disgust, and everyone around the palace knew it. This is also why the guards can bully Zhang Li and his son.
The group was in a stalemate for a while, and it was not until the patriarch's body was about to fall that the emperor waved his hand and asked them to get up.
"Say, what?" The words that couldn't be shorter gave Zhang Li a glimmer of hope in his heart.
"Your Majesty, my wife has a difficult birth, can I borrow it from the imperial doctor?" Zhang Li said cautiously, looking at the emperor's face.
"What should I do with your wife, a commoner, borrowing the imperial doctor? I thought your family was doomed, and you want me to give you a marriage!" The emperor was very disapprehensive when he heard this, as if that person was not his own sister, and Zhang Li trembled with anger. Fortunately, he was held up by the patriarch.
"So, the minister will leave!" the patriarch stared at the emperor and said angrily, pulling Zhang Li and wanting to go back, but was stopped by a knife.
"What does the emperor mean by this?" Zhang Li was puzzled, did not give them the imperial doctor, and stopped them from leaving.
The emperor turned his back to them this time, was silent for a while, and slowly spoke, "Tell An Ning that this path was chosen by her and your Zhang family." If the Zhang family is extinct today, then there will be no more Zhang family in the future!"
Regardless of whether Zhang Li and they understood it or not, the emperor walked inside after he finished speaking. Zhang Ligang wanted to shout, but saw the emperor beckoning back and motioning for them to pass.
Zhang Li and his son went out of the palace gate and rode home like crazy. Walking through the market, it was already empty. At this time, it was almost evening, and I didn't know what the situation was over there.
When Zhang Li and his son rushed to the door of the small gate, it was quiet like a pool of stagnant water, and Zhang Li was stunned. Zhang Li slowly pushed open the door, but found that his wife, who was lying on the bed, actually got up.
Zhang Li hurriedly caught up, for fear that something would happen to his wife. The strange thing is that the wife has a ruddy face and a smile on her face, and she doesn't look like she has given birth to a child at all.
"Ah Ning, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Li was a little flustered, he didn't want anything to happen to his wife again.
Unexpectedly, his wife held his hand in turn, "Are you stupid? I'm so good! Not only me, but also the child." ”
While talking and laughing, an old man walked out of the back room, holding a child in his arms without crying or making trouble, and it was very quiet. The big eyes keep turning and are very pleasing.
"It's... My child?" Zhang Li smiled, and the child laughed with him. The Zhang family, once again, was full of laughter because of the arrival of this child.
