Chapter 6: The Imperial Palace
So when Zheng Yue proposed to let Zheng Xi marry on her behalf, she agreed without thinking about it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Today's glory may be just a flash in the pan, and it can be regarded as the expulsion of her wish.
Because it was the marriage given by the queen mother, after entering the palace, Li Hongwen took them straight to Cining Palace, where the queen mother lived.
The father-in-law who was guarding the Cining Palace went in to pass the word, and it didn't take long to come out, and said: "General, come on, the Hou family of Qing'an is waiting here before dawn, just now the emperor and concubine also came, and the queen mother was not in good health, so she got up and invited someone in." ”
Li Hongwen nodded, and the maid who followed Duan's side hurriedly touched a gold ingot from her pocket and stuffed it into her father-in-law's hand, and thanked her!
Zheng Xi heard that his scalp was numb, Qing'an Hou's family? Instead of Qing'an Hou and his wife.
It's just a blessing or a curse, and it can't be avoided.
Thinking like this, Zheng Xi straightened her dress and walked towards the hall with Li Xu with a calm face.
Passing by the palace maids and eunuchs standing on both sides, Zheng Xi showed a slight smile.
"Ministers/courtiers meet the emperor, the queen mother, and the concubine."
There was silence for a while, and it took three breaths before I heard the emperor's "Aiqing flat"!
Only then did Zheng Xi have the opportunity to get up and look up at the three most distinguished people today.
When she looked up, her gaze crashed into a pair of deep brown eyes. What surprised Zheng Xi even more was that Emperor Xiao Zichen looked confused when he saw her, and he even stood up from the carved dragon mahogany seat.
It's like an old man who hasn't seen each other for a long time.
Zheng Xi was frightened, and intuitively leaned towards Li Xu's side. It's true that she has seen the emperor, it was the fourth year after she married Li Xu in her previous life, and she was already unrecognizable at that time, how could the emperor know her!
"Your Majesty, you want to be the master of your courtiers!" The voice remembered at the right time, and a white shadow quickly crawled in front of the seat, it was Zheng Yue. A piece of green silk wrapped around her body like a feather fan because of her movements, and half of it was spread on the carpet in the hall, like ripples spreading out.
Beauty, really a beauty, even kneeling can be so beautiful, Zheng Xi is ashamed.
The emperor, who was standing, sat back in his seat and said, "This is the fourth lady of the Hou family in Qing'an?" Qing'anhou, both of them are your daughters, what do you think should be done? ”
Sitting under the emperor is the current concubine, Li Xiangtong, who is the sister of Li Xu's mother.
The emperor is twenty-eight years old, and Li Xiangtong married Xiao Zichen when he was still a prince. It was with the support of the Li family that Xiao Zichen squeezed from an ordinary little prince to the position of the crown prince, and then ascended the throne as the emperor.
What is surprising is that Xiao Zichen did not crown Li Xiangtong as the queen after becoming emperor, but only gave her the title of concubine. The reason is that there is no after.
At this time, the emperor's words fell, and Li Xiangtong answered: "In my opinion, since these four women are stubborn, it is better to remarry, and it is not for nothing that the two sisters marry the same husband!" With the momentum of Li Xiangtong's words, although there is no queen, the status in the palace is still stable, which is the advantage of having a strong mother's family.
When Zheng Ying, the Marquis of Qing'an, heard this, he hurriedly knelt beside Zheng Yue and said, "I can't help it!" In this way, my family Zheng Yue will not become a joke in Beijing in the future, and what face will there be to come out to meet people again. ”
"Yes, this is not fair to the eldest lady of the Zheng family, there is a difference between the concubines since ancient times, not to mention that the concubines marry first." Emperor Xiao Zichen said.
"What does the emperor mean?" Li Guifei was obviously a little unhappy, and her anger could even be felt by Zheng Xi.
Xiao Zichen looked like a nobody, and said, "Yi Zhen looks at the appearance of the fourth lady of the Hou family in Qing'an, and Li Tingwei will not suffer a loss if he marries!" ”
"How can that be! It is unfair for two daughters to marry the same husband to Miss Zheng, and it is not even more unfair to let the younger brother of the palace marry the daughter of the Hou Mansion as his wife? ”
Hearing this, Zheng Xi's cold sweat had already flowed out, but she didn't expect Li Xu's sister to still have a temperament, dare to talk to the current emperor like this, did she think he was still the ordinary little prince who used to be!
"What then? Do you want to kill her, and then let your brother remarry a noble person? ”
"That's fine." Li Xiangtong's strong attitude is closely behind Xiao Zichen.
"Qing'an Hou, you come to get an idea!"
"The emperor is the master!" Qing'an Hou knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xiao Zichen, bursting into tears! But he didn't mean to intercede for Liu Xi.
"Okay, come on, pull the fourth lady down and cut it down!"
MB,MB,MB。
She was the one who was cut off as soon as she came on the field, Zheng Xi raised her head, her face was incredible, and she looked at Emperor Xiao Zichen's eyes and resented.
I have long heard that the current emperor is cruel, but there is no need to disagree, just cut off people's heads!
With the sound of running, four guards wearing cyan armor and knives soon ran into the hall, standing behind Zheng Xi in unison, just waiting for Xiao Zichen to give an order, it is estimated that the two of them will be able to lift their arms and lift their legs, and Zheng Xi will be able to take Zheng Xi away like a chicken.
Zheng Xi's sweat flowed.
I happened to see Liu Yue's lowered head looking at her, and the corners of her mouth were pursed. Zheng Xi's head was buzzing, the slut was hateful, and even more hateful was at the moment of life and death, and she didn't have the slightest idea.
The arm can't twist the thigh, not to mention the emperor's steely dragon leg.
The Marquis of Qing'an wanted to send Zheng Yue to the palace intact, and he had already become one with the emperor. On the contrary, the emperor and the Li family had a disagreement, and this time they made up their minds to make the Li family ugly and cut off the idea of the Li family's marriage, so as to weaken the power of the Li family. Whether Zheng Xi is alive or dead, for them, there is no need to worry at all.
Zheng Xi looked at Li Xu, they had been husband and wife for seven years in their previous life, he should be able to save her, right?
Men are like mountains! He does look like a mountain when he doesn't move. What's more, this mountain will still be sucked away by the green river on the ground.
At this time, Li Hongwen pulled Duan to kneel in front of Xiao Zichen and said, "The emperor is angry, since the dog mistakenly married the fourth lady of the Hou Mansion as his wife, this is their fate!" The minister has already recognized this daughter-in-law, and asked the emperor, the queen mother, and the concubine to be gracious. ”
"Father!" Concubine Li Xiangtong snorted! Grief and indignation and unwillingness were all melted into this father, and even Zheng Ying and Zheng Yue raised their heads in surprise.
sighed, as if he was feeling sorry for Li Xu. "This ...... Didn't you wronged Li Tingwei? When Xiao Zichen saw Zheng Yue's raised face, he was obviously in a trance for a moment.
At this time, Li Xu, who was still obsessed with the beautiful scenery just now, finally reacted and said: "The minister is not wronged, the minister is willing to marry Zheng Xi as his wife!" Please ask the emperor and the queen mother to forgive her for the sake of her youth and ignorance. After speaking, he also took her hand and knelt down towards the emperor together.
