Chapter 44: Marry or Mad

"The concubine heard that the emperor has been in poor health recently, and she specially boiled a cup of bird's nest porridge for the emperor herself, because she didn't know when the emperor would come to the palace of the concubine, and she was afraid that this porridge would be cold when she waited, so she had to send it to the emperor in a hurry, your majesty, you won't blame the concubine, right?" Concubine De's delicate voice makes people listen to it very comfortably, especially the little daughter's posture with a little grievance, which makes the irritability in the emperor's heart completely eliminated. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The emperor asked the palace maid to take the bird's nest porridge and put it on the table, then took Concubine De's jade hand and said gently: "Concubine Ai has a heart, how can I blame you, just leave this kind of thing to the next person to handle, why do you need to do it yourself, if you hurt Concubine Ai's jade hand, I will be distressed." "He does feel a little tired and weak in the past few days, it's rare for Concubine De to be so attentive to him, why is he not satisfied?

To tell the truth, although Concubine De is in her forties, because of proper maintenance, the traces of time have not left many traces on her face, and her skin can be broken by blowing, without a trace of wrinkles. Compared with those young concubines who have just entered the palace, they are not bad at all. And she has the charm of a mature woman, no wonder she has been able to win the emperor's favor for decades and the grace has not faded.

Liang Yuan stood aside awkwardly at the moment, neither to leave nor to stay, but at this time, Concubine De looked at Liang Yuan with exaggerated surprise as if she had just seen him, and said, "The Prime Minister is also here?" Oops, this palace is really rude, and it actually disturbed the deliberations between the adults and the emperor! Concubine De pretended to finish speaking, and said to the emperor with an apologetic blessing: "Your Majesty, it's all because the concubines are not good and disturb you and the prime minister, and the concubines will retire!" He made a gesture and saluted, but was stopped by the emperor.

"It's okay, you did it unintentionally, since you're here, just stay here, it just so happens that Lord Liang and I are talking about the marriage between Qingshu's little girl and the prince, you also come up with an idea, see how to solve it." As soon as the emperor thought of this, he had a headache.

So Liang Yuan reluctantly repeated the whole thing to Concubine De. What is reluctance? It's just a matter of their respective parties, but I think that Concubine De's marriage between the Prime Minister's Mansion and the royal family finally failed, and she should be happy to see it come to fruition.

Unexpectedly, Concubine De thought about it carefully, and then said: "Your Majesty, the concubine thinks that this marriage contract should not be easily withdrawn, after all, the emperor has issued a holy decree to the world, if it is withdrawn, wouldn't it be child's play to take Chrysostom and Yuyan as a child's play?" At that time, it will become the laughing stock of the people of the world! ”

When the emperor heard this, he felt that it made sense, so he hurriedly asked, "What is the opinion of the concubine?" ”

Concubine De covered her mouth and smiled softly, glanced at Liang Yuan, and then said to the emperor: "The matter of the prime minister's daughter suffering from a hidden illness must not be publicized, otherwise it will not ruin the reputation of other girls!" As...... The emperor issued another holy decree, just find a reason, postpone the marriage for a few years, within a few years, if Miss Liang is well, the wedding will be held as usual, if it is not good, and then find a reason to cancel it, then things have passed for several years, and not many people will remember this matter, so that not only takes into account the emperor's face, but also will not ruin Miss Liang's reputation, the emperor, do you say that what the concubine said is reasonable? ”

The emperor's eyes lit up, nodded and clapped his hands and said, "This method is wonderful!" Aifei, you are really my lucky star, hahaha! Prime Minister, what do you think? Contrary to the emperor's excitement, Liang Yuan smiled stiffly while enduring the gloom in his eyes.

The words have already been said here, if Liang Yuanruo naively thinks that Concubine De just "happened" to appear here, and then kindly helped him solve the trouble, then he would be too stupid. Concubine De's trick clearly took into account the faces of both parties, but no one noticed, or one thing that no one cared about except him, was that if he did it according to Concubine De's method, it meant that his daughter had to be "crazy" for a few more years, and in these few years, she couldn't talk about marriage!

Not to mention how many years the time is set, let's just say that after a few years, his daughter has been "crazy" and is getting older, which famous family will not care about marrying her?! Concubine De's chess piece is really wonderful! Unexpectedly, he couldn't refuse at all, and when he looked at him, he couldn't hide the smug look in his eyes.

Just, why did she do it? If it's just to embarrass Shu'er, if the Prime Minister's Mansion marries the royal family, wouldn't it be even more disadvantageous to them? Liang Yuan's heart was turning a thousand times at this time, he really couldn't guess Concubine De's thoughts, could it be ...... It was she who guessed that Shu'er was not...... Is it really crazy? Thinking of this, Liang Yuan was shocked into a cold sweat, looking at Concubine De's complacent appearance, how could he look like he was prepared, otherwise how could he say this reasonable and seemingly fair and decent plan as soon as he opened his mouth, which made people feel that they couldn't refuse, was obviously thought out in advance!

But what else? The emperor is still waiting for his reply, and now he has to send it, Liang Yuan sighed helplessly in his heart, and said to the emperor: "Minister, obey the emperor's holy will." ”

The emperor nodded appreciatively, and said with a deep sigh: "Then it will be set at five years!" It's not long, it's not short, it's just right. However, tomorrow is the prince's wedding, and in order to avoid giving the tongue, the holy decree should be postponed for a few days! ”

Liang Yuan thanked him and retired.

"What? Shu'er she ...... Suicide attempt, resulting in ...... Crazy?? Tell me what happened! Shen Yanjiao received a secret report from her subordinates, and stood up from the chair in shock, although she has never gone out these days in the mansion to get married, but what happened outside has not been hidden from her ears and eyes, she knows the relationship between Liang Qingshu and Rong Shuyu, and now that the emperor has decreed marriage for the second time, she is helpless and can only look at it in her eyes and be anxious, but she never expected that her best close friend would be so desperate that she embarked on such a road of no return!

After listening to the secret report from her subordinates, Shen Yanjiao frowned...... No, she can't look at it like this anymore, now that Rong Shuyu is out to save her father, her life and death are uncertain, and Shu'er's life and death are uncertain, how can she watch doing nothing? Thinking of this, Shen Yanjiao asked Neon to find herself a set of maid's clothes and sneaked into the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Now she is going to get married the next day, if she goes out blatantly at this time, I am afraid that she will be criticized and afraid of accidents, if it is disguised, it will be much more convenient, and it will not be too eye-catching to walk on the road.

Shen Yanjiao didn't believe that Liang Qingshu was real...... It's crazy, but his subordinates can only find out this news, because the Prime Minister's Mansion at this time is under martial law, and not a single fly can fly in and out, bypassing a few patrolling guards, Shen Yanjiao leaped all the way with her superb skills, and soon touched Liang Qingshu's boudoir.

She had been to this house countless times in the past, and she knew exactly where the things were placed, but it was just ...... Is it still the same room that is messy and gloomy now? Shen Yanjiao suspected that she had made a mistake, but she looked around and there was nothing wrong!

"Cheong-sook, are you there? I'm Jiao'er! I've come to see you, are you okay? Shen Yanjiao squinted her eyes to adapt to the light around her, but she still couldn't see clearly, because the windows were blocked by heavy curtains, and the light couldn't penetrate through.

In desperation, Shen Yanjiao had no choice but to lift the curtains, and in an instant, the room became bright, but then a terrible scream came from the corner.

"Ahhh Don't, don't light! It's so bright, I'm going to be blind...... I don't know, I don't know...... You're my mom, I'm your grandma, hahahaha, I hate the sun! ......" This string of nonsense shouted out with the screams, Shen Yanjiao chuckled in her heart, hurriedly stepped forward, and found that it was Liang Qingshu who was hiding in the corner, only to see that she kept shouting and talking nonsense, and desperately covered her eyes with her hands.

Shen Yanjiao was faintly uneasy in her heart, she hurriedly lowered the curtains, and groped towards Liang Qingshu's location, the glance just now surprised her very much, the usual gentle and elegant lady, but at this time she looked so down, helpless and embarrassed, she didn't know what to do.

"Shu'er, I'm Jiao'er! Look at me, don't be afraid, I'm Jiao'er, do you still recognize me? Shen Yanjiao suppressed the panic in her heart, she hugged Liang Qingshu into her arms and whispered, for fear that as long as she spoke loudly, she would scare this person who was already fragile into a porcelain doll.

Suddenly, the person in her arms no longer trembled, and stopped talking nonsense, Shen Yanjiao moved in her heart and lifted Liang Qingshu's body to look at her with ecstatic eyes, under the dim light, Liang Qingshu's face was not real, but she could see those big beautiful eyes, and she was looking at herself with teary eyes at this time.

"Shu'er, ...... you" Shen Yanjiao was about to speak, but was interrupted by Liang Qingshu.

Liang Qingshu spread fiercely in Shen Yanjiao's arms, suppressed her voice and said bitterly: "Jiao'er, I have to go crazy for five years, and I have to go crazy for another five years to get rid of the nightmare of the paper edict, what should I do?" Except for the people close to me, even in front of the people around me, I can't act like a normal person, five years! In five years, I'm going to be really crazy! ”

Shen Yanjiao's feeling at this time was that she was both happy and sad, fortunately that Liang Qingshu was not really crazy, and sad that she had to pretend to be crazy and stupid for five years...... Five years, whether it is long or not, whether it is short or not, and the most precious years of a woman are in these five years, after five years of madness, what else is left of Liang Qingshu's life?

I couldn't say anything in distress, so I could only silently accompany Liang Qingshu to cry, if Ah Lian was still there at this time, would I also be reduced to this situation? Maybe it's not as good as Shu'er! With a wry smile in her heart, Shen Yanjiao thought, now she actually wants to thank Ah Lian for her grace?
