Chapter 121: Sacrifice

Princess Shu sat there expressionlessly, the whole person seemed to be carved from jade, she didn't move, and she didn't even have any popularity. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The red mandarin duck fell to the ground, crying and begging her: "Ask the princess to save the slave and the maid, save the slave and the slave's family, the slave and the maid were punished by the lord for the princess and the lady, the slave and the maid are loyal, please be clear!"

Princess Shu still didn't say anything, and the grandmother beside her said: "The princess already knows, you can live in the palace with peace of mind first, don't worry about other things, the princess has her own opinions." ā€

Hongyuan didn't get a clear answer, how can she rest assured? She is the son of the Tu family, and she has also made her own contacts in the subordinate group over the years, and many of them have received her favor and missed her love. Although she was rejected by her head of the family, accused of stealing, and even the family was tied up and sold, there were still people willing to tell her where her family was and what was going on in the inner courtyard. She really had no choice but to come to Princess Shu. As long as Princess Shu opens her mouth to say a word, her parents and relatives can be saved, otherwise, she will be sold to Tiannan and Haibei, and her flesh and blood will be separated, that is, she can save her life and survive in the Shu Palace, what is the point?

can listen to the tone of the grandmother next to Princess Shu, and it seems that she does not mean to save her family. She gambled her life for this aunt and grandmother who married early, how could Princess Shu not even agree to her little request? !

The red mandarin duck's eyes were red, and he refused to listen to the grandmother's words and leave, but just kowtowed there and begged.

Seeing that Princess Shu's face was not very good-looking, the grandmother hurriedly gave the girl standing next to her a look, motioned her to half-help and half-mop the red mandarin duck, and pulled her out of the room, before she came over in person and said in a low voice: "Silly girl, the princess is thinking of a way to deal with it, where can I take care of you? That's just a matter of one sentence." The princess ordered to go down, and someone else would do it. Isn't it an eyesore for you to worry about the princess here?"

The red mandarin duck hesitated for a moment, choked up and said, "Mama, don't coax me, the princess really ordered to go down?"

Mama snorted: "What am I coaxing you to do?" This kind of thing, the princess only needs a look, and naturally someone will do it, and she still needs to be instructed by the tired princess herself, and teach people how to do it word by word? It's just ...... Don't be too long-winded, there's one thing I want to tell you. ā€

The red mandarin was overjoyed by her words, and when she heard the words, she hurriedly straightened her expression: "Mama, please command." ā€

Mama said: "Your matter was personally ordered by the master of the in-laws, our princess is a child, it is not good to openly go against the will of his old man, therefore, the palace sent people to save your family, but it is not easy to publicize it to the outside world, and you can't bring people back to the palace to raise." You first live in peace in the palace, don't always rush. When things pass, the wind and waves are calm, and there will be a time for your flesh and blood to be reunited. It's not that Mama speaks unpleasantly, as long as people are still alive, are they still afraid that there will be no goodbye? But the most important thing is that our princess and lady can get through this pass safely. Otherwise, if Madame is not good, what good will happen to the people waiting around her? You will also bear the charge of stealing and running slaves for the rest of your life, and you will never see the light again. Would you just like to live like that?"

The red mandarin duck calmed down a little and looked ashamed: "Mama is right, it's the slave who wants to go wrong." ā€

Mama smiled: "You are the proud person next to Madame, and the princess will naturally treat you well." You follow them down to settle down first, don't go out of the house if you have nothing to do, someone will bring you three meals. ā€

The red mandarin duck answered honestly and retreated with the girls.

Mama returned to the house and reported to Princess Shu: "The red mandarin duck has been appeased, but her family is ......" Is it really necessary to send someone to save it?

Princess Shu actually didn't order it at all, Mama was just coaxing the red mandarin duck. But she thinks that as long as someone does something, what difference does it make if it is done sooner or later?

It's just that Princess Shu didn't pay attention to the red mandarin duck at all, what is it to sacrifice a few subordinates for the sake of her youngest son's great cause? He grounded his mother in order to survive when necessary, so as to preserve the wealth and glory of the Tu family. ā€

Mama was sad when she heard this, and hurriedly comforted her: "Things may not have come to this point, don't the people over there in Jinling not know the truth? Everyone only talks about the eldest son of the prince of Liao, but in fact, what does it have to do with him as a villain? Those who go out of our palace should know what to say and what not to say, and they will never betray their master." As for Zhen Li'......" she paused, "His family is all in the mansion, and there is a beloved youngest son in our palace, where does he dare to confess?"

Princess Shu sneered: "Zhen Li is the person on which card? I don't worry about him." This time, it was also his incompetence that affected me. When I think of what he had done, I wish he was dead, and I didn't have to worry about something that shouldn't have been known. ā€

Mama is also very dissatisfied with Zhen Lili. In fact, Princess Shu only planned to send a few dead soldiers, but the dead soldiers didn't recognize Li Yanchao, and someone needed to contact Li Yanchao to gain his trust, and then use his identity as the county commander of Shangyuan County to inquire about the news, confirm the whereabouts of the prince, arrange assassination, and finally erase the traces and blame others, this is a complete and foolproof plan. Princess Shu specially begged her mother, and hired Mrs. Tu's companion Zhen Li, firstly because he knew Li Yanchao, and secondly, because he was quite shrewd and capable on weekdays, and his mouth was also very tight, so he should not disappoint them.

I knew that things would turn out to be the way we are now, and I shouldn't have chosen this waste in the first place.

Princess Shu guessed what her father, the head of the Tu family, might take next: "Since my father has entered the palace, he will definitely explain the matter to the Queen Mother." But I don't know if my father will tell me about the prince, or will he blame Zhao Mo's kid for everything? With his father's behavior, he is more likely to confess to the queen mother. It depends on whether the Queen Mother will protect the Tu family, protect our mother and son, or choose to abandon us in order to keep her wealth and glory. ā€

Mama hurriedly asked, "Princess, what should we do next?"

Princess Shu muttered: "I have burned the letters written by Li Yanchao, and the dead soldiers sent out will not leave any marks related to the Shu Palace." After a while, you will send someone to the village to instruct, and the lack of population will be filled as soon as possible, no matter who asks, they will say that there is no shortage of people in the village. The gangsters who were caught in Jinling have nothing to do with our palace! There is also Li Yanchao's side......" She hesitated, "That kid is easy to solve, but I don't know if he has told his family anything......

Mama hurriedly said: "Don't worry, princess, the old slave has long been on guard against such a confidential matter, and she has already tested the Li family's aunt and grandmother, and their family doesn't know the truth." When the news came from Jinling, they really thought that Lord Li was going to the grandson of the Liao Wang, and they were all blaming him for being careless, but causing trouble for the princess and the little prince. ā€

Princess Shu sneered and said lightly: "Since the Li family is not a problem, then Zhen is advantageous...... It became the biggest trouble. She paused, "I think that Zhen Li has a lot of dealings with the Li family, and he is also familiar with that Li Yanchao." Li Yanchao was delusional, and he also had a heart to curry favor, and it was not strange to take the opportunity of going south to buy to do evil. ā€

"The princess's words are wrong!" A voice suddenly sounded outside the door, interrupting Princess Shu's thoughts. She recognized who it was, and her face immediately became difficult to see.

A middle-aged scholar dressed in a gray and green silk cotton robe walked in from outside the door, stood by the door, and saluted the princess of Shu from a distance: "The student has seen the princess. The students trespassed and asked the princess for forgiveness. ā€

Princess Shu sneered: "You are here, what do you want me to forgive?

She is the housewife and can play a little temper, but the grandmother is a well-behaved person, and politely said to the middle-aged scholar: "Why is Mr. Sun here? ā€

He said to Princess Shu bluntly: "The students understand the princess's feelings, but now is not the time to talk about such gossip. The most important thing is to do a good job in the aftermath. When the princess received a letter from Li County's order that day, she also asked the students if it was worth doing. The student gave the princess a 'no' word that day, but the princess refused to listen, and even hid from the student and the little boy to send people to the south, and even involved the Tu family. Now that things are out of control, the catastrophe of the princess and the little prince is just around the corner, does the princess still have to compete with the students for leisure, but ignore the really important matters?"

Princess Shu's face became more and more ugly, but she still had a hard mouth: "Don't be alarmist here." I also mentioned the aftermath method, but you don't agree with it. ā€

Mr. Sun smiled coldly: "How can the students agree? The princess's method is full of flaws, and it is correct not to admit herself." If the student really asks the people in the palace to do what the princess wants, I am afraid that the prince's misfortune will come! The princess thinks about it carefully, not to mention whether the Li family really has a friendship with Steward Zhen, who is the companion of your mother's mother, and he is involved in it, can your mother still be able to get out? The head of the Tu family has already entered the palace to ask for guilt, and it is clear that he will not protect you and the little son. Instead of quibbling in every possible way, but the emperor and the queen mother saw the joke, the princess might as well make a decision immediately, and admit the crime together with Mrs. Tu for the sake of the prince, the prince and the little son. ā€

"What are you talking about?!" Princess Shu was suddenly furious, "You dare to say such a thing in front of me?!"

"The students are for the sake of the palace. Mr. Sun was unmoved, "Now, what other way is there to do it?" The princess knew in her heart that you were eyeing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the East Palace, the only son of the prince of a country and a saint. Although he is safe and sound, it is a fact that Steward Zhen once intended to harm him. Can the emperor spare the person who intends to hurt the life of his only son? There is no need for any evidence at all for this kind of thing, as long as the emperor thinks so, the future of the little prince will end here. There is no need to mention the future heir, the emperor will not even give the title of county prince to the little prince. Even if the royal family really wants to succeed the emperor in the future, it will not be the turn of the Shu Palace!"

He stared at Princess Shu: "This is the disaster caused by the princess." For the sake of the lives of the prince, the prince and the little son, can't the princess sacrifice herself?"
