Chapter 117: Growth
"'Empress' is just a title, an identity, and people should exist before these. www.biquge.info If she doesn't deserve to sit in this position, then the other women don't deserve it. The Emperor retorted calmly.
Such a refutation made the Queen Mother choke for a while.
Undoubtedly, he was right, but the Queen Mother's worries were not just because of the 'queen's throne'.
"Is it too hasty and unrealistic to make a one-sided relationship, and it was a one-sided relationship seven years ago?" the Queen Mother questioned, citing her experience in the world.
This woman who is nearly forty years old, a woman who has been sitting on the throne of the queen for more than 20 years, she has seen a lot of things between men and women, and she can see things clearly, so she hopes that her children can also see clearly.
Of course, she didn't understand what the emotion between men and women was all about, she just felt that the emperor's actions were inevitably irrational.
In this case, she will not sit idly by.
But the Emperor apparently had his own opinion on this, and he said with certainty: "No, it was not a spur-of-the-moment decision. ”
Putting aside the factor of appearance, Liu Yaoying's bearing alone is enough to impress him, not to mention that she still has appearance. The young emperor continued to explain to the Empress Dowager in a very sincere tone and attitude: "There is a thing, like a natural attraction, which does exist between certain men and women. It only takes a glance to identify, an answer, and no matter how the years pass, it will always be as clear as ever. ”
"Maybe it's just a bit of your imagination. The Queen Mother immediately reminded.
"Of course, it has an element of imagination, but it also has real roots. The Emperor replied without showing any weakness.
"What if in fact her image is far from what you imagined?" said the Queen Mother deliberately.
"If that's the case, it will have two more effects - either she is beyond the child's imagination, or she is not. But there must be something imaginable. The emperor said confidently.
This is also an answer to the Queen Mother's question a few days ago - he does not intend to make Gong Qifang the queen.
At the same time, it was clear that the emperor had shown his determination - even if the empress dowager and ministers opposed it, he would not back down.
The Queen Mother sighed secretly.
Although she knew that it was often difficult to balance the personal happiness of the emperor with the throne, after all, she and the emperor were a real special case, so she understood how important a marriage with an emotional foundation was for both men and women. Then, even though she knew that what he was doing was a bit incredible, she decided to support him for once.
"Okay. She said, her tone still a little apprehensive and helpless.
"If she recovers by March next year, I will agree with you to marry her and make her queen, and if she still can't recover by then, you can still marry her, but she doesn't have to think about the queen's position. ”
The emperor was about to fight for Liu Yaoying again, but the empress dowager had already made a straight face and said solemnly: "I have made the biggest concession, do you dare to gain another inch?"
The emperor had no choice but to give up and kneel down and give thanks.
When the emperor returned to the Yinghua Palace, a person soon reported: "Your Majesty, according to reliable sources, the people of the 'Sun Moon Meteor Knife' faction will reappear on June 8. I heard that they would go from north to south and then from east to west. This is a letter from their big boss. ”
The emperor immediately took the letter, and when he was about to read it, another person came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Sima Yu, a member of the cabinet university, asks to see you." ”
The emperor didn't want to see him at this time, so he said to the visitor: "Just say that I am busy, and tell him to report something to him." ”
Soon, however, the man came in and reported: "Your Majesty, he said that there is something very important to report, and he must see you face to face before he can make it clear." ”
If it is handed in the form of a fold, then the matter will not be able to get a timely reply, Sima Yu knows this very well, so he does not give up and strives to meet again.
The emperor's impression of Sima Yu has always been complicated, and now that he heard that he was still outside, he was inexplicably a little unhappy, but he was also worried that there was really something important, so he said unhappily: "Let him come in." ”
At the same time, the emperor immediately put the letter that Gu Bainiang had written to him into his pocket.
As soon as Sima Yu came in, he said, "Your Majesty, Weichen heard that the people from the 'Sun Moon Meteor Knife' faction were about to leave the mountain, so he hurried to tell you about it. ”
"I've heard that. The emperor replied calmly.
Sima Yu immediately looked up at him.
Judging from the emperor's expression, it seems that he does not object to them going out of the mountain. What Sima Yu didn't know was that the person sent by the 'Sun Moon Meteor Knife' was the emperor who personally wrote a letter to invite him out of the mountain.
"Your Majesty, they had a holiday with the Heavenly Family back then, and now that they are back in the rivers and lakes, I am afraid that it will be detrimental to the Heavenly Family. Sima Yu said.
The emperor smiled and asked, "Is this why Sima Aiqing came to ask to see?"
Sima Yu hurriedly said, "Yes." ”
The emperor slowly drank a cup of tea and said in an extremely calm tone: "Sima Aiqing, don't forget that the incident was the fault of King Nancheng first, and you can't blame the people of the 'Sun Moon Meteor Knife' faction, besides, this matter has been properly handled as early as the time of Emperor Zhuang Huai, so why make a big fuss about this matter today?"
Sima Yu didn't expect the emperor to say this, and he couldn't help but be stunned, but he quickly spoke up again: "Your Majesty, although the Heavenly Family no longer cares, who knows if the people of the 'Sun Moon Meteor Knife' faction have always held a grudge? As you just said, it was King Nancheng who was wrong in the first place, which is more likely to be the motive that caused them to come out of the mountain to take revenge." ”
The emperor smiled faintly when he heard this, and said, "If the king of a country is not allowed to return to the rivers and lakes because of this, it is that the strength of this king is not enough. ”
Sima Yu was choked by his words and couldn't speak for a long time, so he couldn't help but say in his heart: "Before, I thought that this person was not deeply involved in the world and could handle it, but I didn't expect him to be invulnerable in such a short period of time. ”
He originally thought that the emperor would listen to his persuasion, but he didn't expect that the truth was completely unexpected, and after thinking about the pros and cons, Sima Yu had no choice but to make concessions.
"Your Majesty has a point. Sima Yu said with a smile, looking happy and convinced.
He continued: "Your Majesty has a broad heart, which is the luck of the people of Zhaoguo. ”
The Emperor snorted softly from his nose, but his face remained unmoved.
"If Sima Aiqing has nothing else to do, please step back first. The emperor said.
Although he was quite disappointed in his heart, Sima Yu still smiled and said, "Yes." ”
Then he respectfully withdrew.
Soon after Sima Yu left, the emperor asked Gonggong Liu to come in and said, "Quickly send a letter to Gu Baniang, and let her come to see me as soon as she leaves the mountain." ”
Gonggong Liu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you summoned them as soon as they reappeared in the rivers and lakes, I'm afraid this will scare them back, right?"
The emperor said: "I only saw Gu Bainiang alone. He added: "If they don't even have this bit of guts, they are not worthy of being called the descendants of the 'Sun Moon Meteor Knife'." ”
Gonggong Liu didn't dare to say more, and immediately took the order to do it.
