Chapter 158: Enter the palace to listen to the order
Leng Yixiu's heart was full of excitement and joy, the emperor summoned Rong Xi, and he also talked about homely, which means that the emperor cares more about this daughter-in-law, thinking about Rong Xi's appearance in the Rong family's case, it is difficult to make the emperor not care.
"What did you say?" Leng Yixiu asked with interest.
"Old slave ......" Mama Wei was a little embarrassed, she didn't want to say, but now that the prince asked, how to answer, she couldn't lie.
At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the door, and one rushed in and said, "Lord, someone has come to the palace, please accept the order." ”
"Oh?" Leng Yixiu looked out in a blink of an eye, and sure enough, he saw a person dressed as a eunuch walking quickly towards the house, he took a few steps forward, knelt on the ground, and prepared to receive the order.
Mama Wei also knelt behind him, and she didn't dare to gasp, her palms kept breaking out in cold sweat, her heart was pounding, she was worried...... This decree is the emperor's decree of divorce.
The eunuch shook off the dust in his hand, and shouted in a thin voice: "In the spirit of the Holy Lord's commandment, it is passed that King Ning will enter the palace immediately." ”
Leng Yixiu kowtowed and said, "The minister's decree." ”
The eunuch immediately smiled and went to help him, "Lord Wang, please get up, pack up and follow the slave into the palace to face the saint." ”
"Okay." Leng Yixiu no longer hesitated, turned around and changed into court clothes, and followed the eunuch into the palace quickly.
Mama Wei stood there, looking at Leng Yixiu's figure, feeling uncomfortable for a while, the prince ...... But I hope you don't feel too sad.
Rong Qiu sat in the courtyard next to Leng Yixiu's study, holding a small mirror in his hand, carefully looking at the palm prints on his face, his eyes almost bursting with fire.
It's hateful! She gritted her teeth and felt a hot pain on her face, damn Rong Xi, she actually dared to do it to herself! And it's so ruthless!
But...... She hooked the corners of her lips, and a cold smile appeared on her face, Rong Xi was really stupid to get home, and actually told the emperor that she wanted to ask Leng Yixiu to divorce his wife, was she crazy?
Also, she was actually pregnant with Leng Yixiu's child! What a damn one! How can she have children? Fortunately, it sounds like she didn't sue Leng Yixiu, what is this woman's idea?
No matter what she was thinking, anyway, she was determined to leave the palace and leave Leng Yixiu, so she would give her another ride and let her go further!
Leng Yixiu hurriedly entered the palace, and he had no time to think about Rong Qiu, he didn't know that Rong Qiu hadn't left the palace, but stayed in that courtyard, and the people in the palace, because of her identity, treated her as a distinguished guest, but they also took good care of her.
Leng Yixiu arrived outside the hall, and the eunuch smiled and said, "Lord Wang, please wait, the slave will go in and reply." After that, he turned around and entered the hall, and with a "squeak", the tall jujube red door made a sound, and then closed gently, Leng Yixiu suddenly felt that his heart sank.
There was not much time, and the eunuch came out and said, "Lord, the emperor invites you to go in and reply." ”
Leng Yixiu entered the hall and found that there was no one waiting inside, not even Gonggong Su, who usually followed the side, the emperor was sitting behind the dragon book case, holding a brush in his hand, writing something, his brows were slightly locked, and he didn't seem to be in a particularly good mood.
Leng Yixiu knelt down respectfully and said, "The son saw his father. ”
The emperor sighed vaguely, with a bit of loneliness and helplessness in his tone, and said softly: "Get up." ”
Leng Yixiu got up, there were some doubts in his heart, he always felt that today's emperor was a little unusual, as if he was preoccupied, but he didn't dare to guess at will, he lowered his head and looked around from the corner of his eyes.
Ice is placed on the long bookcase in the main hall, and the wisps of sunlight shine on it through the hollow windows, and the soaring ice air lingers as lightly as mist, and the bursts of coolness make people feel very comfortable.
The one-legged copper crane in the corner holds its head high, and its pointed mouth spews out a faint aroma, which is a special spice for the royal family, luxurious and low-key, refreshing.
Not far away, there are many ornaments on the eight-treasure grid, delicate and ingenious, each of which is a priceless treasure, shining gorgeously in the sun.
It's just that...... This qiē makes people feel a little depressed.
Leng Yixiu's heart sank again, he lowered his eyes, held his breath steadily, and waited for the emperor to speak.
As the minutes and seconds passed, the emperor stopped writing, but he didn't mean to speak, he just looked over lightly and looked at his son.
He stood there respectfully, his posture was upright, like an upright and unyielding pine and cypress, the expression on his face was elegant and resolute, and the rare two temperaments could be perfectly integrated, his eyebrows and eyes were ...... Much like that person.
The emperor's gaze sank slightly, a trace of hidden pain flashed, and some old things suddenly appeared in his mind, more than twenty years ago, it was also such a summer day, the sun flowed like gold, so warm, like the fanatical love in his heart.
The wind outside the window blew in gently, and the white mist from the ice fluttered and swayed, blinding people's eyes, and the slightest cool air penetrated into the nostrils, and the cold air recalled the emperor's sanity.
He raised his hand and gestured to the seat on the side, "Sit down." ”
"Thank you, Father." Leng Yixiu saluted, turned to his seat and sat down, but did not ask anything else.
The emperor praised slightly in his heart, his son has been a handsome man since he was a child, and he can calm down, with a rare calmness and calmness.
"Xiu'er, you...... How is the relationship with the princess? The emperor remembered Rong Xi's request, and there was a little helplessness in his tone.
Leng Yixiu flew tightly, he didn't know why the emperor suddenly asked like this, especially after passing the palace today, whether he went to the palace today unintentionally or intentionally? Or ...... What did you talk about with Rong Xi to make Jun Xin have some scruples?
He pondered slightly: "Father, the emperor, the sons and daughters are no different from Rong Xi and ordinary loving couples. ”
The emperor smiled lightly, this son...... Talking so silently, he leaned back, his hand on the arm of the dragon chair, "If I ...... How about letting you set up another princess? ”
Leng Yixiu Huo Ran turned his head to look at the emperor, the monarch of a country sitting behind the dragon book case, his father, was looking at him with blazing eyes.
Leng Yixiu felt that his heart was beating wildly, and his ears kept roaring with the emperor's words just now, what did he mean? The heart of the monarch is unpredictable...... Was his words sincere or tentative? Another princess?
He thought quickly in his mind, since ancient times, the children of the emperor's family seem to be rich and glorious, and they are born with a higher status than others, but many people don't know how difficult it is to be a child of the royal family, whether they can grow up healthy and safe is a big hurdle, and the battle after surviving is unimaginably tragic.
As for...... For the sake of the country's base, it is common for the princess to marry and marry, and the prince to marry the daughter of an important minister, and the relationship between the two relatives is put in the last consideration, or rather, it has never been considered.
He thought quickly, there has been no war recently, and there are no important things that can affect the imperial court, that is to say, nothing must be stabilized by what woman he marries, so what does the emperor mean when he mentions this matter at this time?
Whatever that means! Leng Yixiu's heart was cold, he strengthened his beliefs, he finally figured out his thoughts, how could he let go of Rong Xi so lightly?
He slowly stood up and saluted, "Father, I don't know why there are some questions?" ”
"You don't care about this for now," the Emperor waved his hand and asked again, "what do you think?" ”
Leng Yixiu pursed his lips, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said word by word: "Back to my father, Erchen and Rong Xi advance and retreat together, Erchen thinks that she is Erchen's favorite princess and the only hostess of Ning Wangfu," he paused, raised his voice a few points, and continued: "For a lifetime." ”
His voice was clear, like ice beads rolling down on the ground, and the cool knock on people's hearts, the emperor closed his eyes slightly, sighed and said, "Xiu'er, have you ever thought about it, maybe...... She doesn't necessarily think so. ”
Leng Yixiu was slightly stunned, and then said firmly: "Father, no matter what she thinks, the son's mind remains the same. ”
The emperor's body leaned forward slightly, his eyes crossed the dragon book case, and he looked heavy, and after a while, he said slowly: "Xiu'er, I went to your mansion to see her, and she ...... Then they will ask me for a decree, asking me to allow you to reconcile and divorce, and force you to divorce your wife. ”
Leng Yixiu was completely stunned, his eyes flashed with clear pain and confusion, as if the emperor's words were a fantasy, which made him feel unbelievable, and cold sweat suddenly broke out in his palms, like a white mist coming out of the ice, wet and cold.
Something roared through his heart, as if he was in the cold winter wax moon, the cold wind was like countless steel knives piercing through his body, the blood quickly coagulated, and it became difficult to even breathe.
The emperor looked at him, and his heart was also astringent, and even a little annoyed, what the hell is this Rong Xi doing? Looking at his son's appearance, he was obviously sincere to her, why did he suddenly do this? I really don't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings!
He slowly stood up from behind the dragon bookcase, walked around the bookcase to Leng Yixiu's side, raised his hand and slowly patted him on the shoulder, and said in a deep tone: "Xiu'er, this is not a big deal, no matter how respectful her identity is, she is just attached to you, she is in Ning Wangfu, so she can be called Princess Ning, and she is nothing without you, so she is the one who suffers." ”
Leng Yixiu smiled reluctantly, loss? How could someone like Rong Xi care about his identity? Why on earth would she do this? Are all the things that have been done for oneself false? No! No! You can feel it!
"Father, son...... I won't agree. Leng Yixiu said firmly word by word.
Seeing his dejected appearance, the emperor shook his head and sighed and said, "That's it, you go back first, I just have a prophet to tell you, and I will not make an immediate decree to leave you with a glimmer of hope." ”
