Chapter 241: Plea
Although Su Chen has lost her biological mother since she was a child, she has always been upright and heroic, loyal and righteous, and at such a time of crisis, she can still come to the rescue and intercede for Xuan'er, which really touches her and makes her ashamed. The pen and fun www.biquge.info still remember that many years ago, when Su Chen tried her best to defend Princess Xiao and intercede, she was afraid of things because she was timid, and out of the psychology of protecting herself, she knew that Princess Xiao was wronged and pitiful, but she still couldn't say a word for her...... I don't feel mixed in my heart.
Six or seven years have passed, and the child who was fierce and helpless at the beginning has now become much more mature and stable in the battlefield and years. Knowing how to behave in front of his father and how to speak is the best way to achieve the best results. His nature has not changed, but his way of doing things has changed greatly. And now that the king attaches importance to Su Chen, she is not unable to see it as a harem concubine, and secretly feels happy for him in her heart, and also feels at ease for the deceased queen sister.
"Father, can you listen to your son?" After the king calmed down for half a minute, Su Chen looked up at his father, his dark eyes were full of sincerity, his eyes were locked on his face, and he didn't move.
The king looked at him coldly, his face was angry, and finally sighed, and squeezed out two words in his throat: "You say." β
"Father, although the son was not in the palace at the beginning, he knew that his father made the decision during the banquet. There are many vain words in the wine, if the father changes his mind at this moment, no one will make irresponsible remarks. Besides, since the father was determined to attack Qiao, the war was imminent, how could the bureaucrats in the court and China seize this matter? Could it be that my Liangyu official is so narrow-minded and idle, father...... What exactly are you worried about? Moreover, how could my father be sure that the general and Qi Yu would be grateful to their relatives? In doing so, even though you fulfilled the promise you made four years ago, you hurt so many people......"
When these words came out, the king's face changed several times, which also made Princess Dou and Ruoxuan who were present stunned. Although his words are not many, they are all said in the king's heart.
First, the king was worried that officials including Lord Shen would have a verbal dispute over this, and threatened that the monarch would not believe his words. Second, after the king repented of his marriage, he would cause harm to Qi Zhao's father and son, and the friendship between the two that had been restored recently was shattered. Thirdly, Xuan'er and Qi Yu are his favorite daughters, and the other is the talents he values the most, and for whatever purpose, he doesn't want to hurt the two of them.
However, Su Chen's words made it clear that these concerns were really his unfounded worries - there was no need to worry about the battle of tongues, and the words after drinking could still be redeemed; Qi Zhao's father and son were not happy and satisfied with the marriage, so they were imposed; And Ruoxuan and Qi Yu are not merciful to each other. He has hurt countless people in his life, and if he pushes two more beloved people into the fire pit, it will be intolerable......
"The king," after a long silence, Princess Dou spoke, the corners of her eyes were still crystal moist, but the corners of her mouth curved into a smile, "The concubine thinks that Prince Chen's words are reasonable, and Xuan'er's life is ...... That's it, it's not hers, she resolutely doesn't want it, and the king has always understood. As for the king's intentions, she completely failed them...... The concubine thought that Xuan'er must be sorry to the king, Xuan'er, isn't it? β
She turned her head to Ruoxuan, her gaze signaling slightly.
Ruoxuan nodded hurriedly, the anger on her face disappeared, and turned into pitiful, looking at her father with blazing eyes, firmly grasping this trace of vitality, for fear of accidentally missing it.
"You mean, Qi Yu has no intention of Xuan'er?" The king was slightly stunned, as if he had never thought of this, "But at the beginning, you weren't ...... Then why didn't he raise an objection four years ago? β
Seeing that his father was shaken, Su Chen hurriedly said, "Four years ago...... In fact, Qi Yu already had a favorite person four years ago, but he was afraid of disappointing his father and hurting Xuan'er's feelings, so he kept silent and acquiesced......"
As for Qi Yu's idea that his father's drunken words were not credible, he would not say it. After saying this, Su Chen lowered his head slightly, with a faint joy in his heart.
"You're saying that Qi Yu already has someone he likes?" The king was even more surprised, his voice raised again, and his face was stunned, "Yes...... Whose daughter? β
"Whose daughter ......" Su Chen muttered, thinking about how to answer, so that he could not confess Lin Luo and also round up the matter, and unconsciously blushed.
Tang Guxi stood behind him, and when he saw his embarrassment, his heart was uneasy. Her eyes rolled slightly, her hands clenched the corners of her clothes, she pondered for a moment, and suddenly knelt beside Su Chen, and said, "King, in fact, Qi Yu's sweetheart...... It was a friend of his many years ago, and the woman was not in Liangyu now, but she agreed with him to come back to the appointment within five years. The young general is deeply affectionate, so he is naturally willing to wait for a few years, and he doesn't want this matter to be bothered by outsiders, and the general doesn't say anything about it, so the king ...... Don't ...... either. Excused me, right? β
In the end, her voice became smaller and quieter, and her heart was also up and down. Let's not talk about whether this statement can be believed by the king, even her embarrassing identity when she comes out of prison is extremely inappropriate......
Princess Dou on the side couldn't help but turn her gaze to this strange woman again, if it weren't for someone with status, she would not dare to talk to the king like this.
However, the king nodded solemnly, as if chewing on her words, "Qi Yu is also a loving person, it is commendable, it is commendable...... So, how many of you know about his 'private affairs'? β
The king stared at her, and his sharp eyes flashed a little playfully, as if he wanted to see her joke.
Tang Guxi was stunned for a moment, his face turned red for a while, and he hurriedly withdrew his gaze, a little dazed.
Su Chen frowned, and was about to speak, but heard his father let out a sullen laugh.
"Yes, Chen'er knows, and you naturally know...... The relationship between the two of them is so good, and the people they know are the same, I'm afraid that 'that woman'...... Chen'er has already met, right? He turned his eyes to look at Su Chen, the corners of his raised eyebrows and his cold eyes had an unpredictable depth.
ββ¦β¦ Yes, son...... It's ...... seen."
"Father......" At this embarrassing moment, Ruoxuan suddenly knelt down and stepped forward, stretched out her hand and grabbed the king's yellow robe, her eyes were full of tears, and her face was sad, "Father, please...... You see, Brother Qi already has a sweetheart, General Qi Zhao has served Liang Yu for many years, he only has this one son, how can you bear to let the general look at Brother Qi sad and lost? Haven't you broken the heart of a father in the world? Father......
Hearing this, the king's eyes trembled, staring at Ruoxuan at his feet, his face turned purple, twitched slightly, and he didn't say a word.
"Think again, my lord." Then, Princess Dou's voice also sounded softly, turned around and came to herself, and slowly knelt down.
"You ......" The king was dumbfounded, pointed his finger at Princess Dou, froze for a while, stopped in mid-air for a long time, and then slowly put it down. He looked around at the four people in the room, and they all knelt in front of him, their eyes looking straight at him, their faces sincere and sad......
Suddenly, a chill arose in his heart, and the frustration struck again, making him feel powerless and gloomy.

Today, I looked at the text from four months ago, and I feel that there have been quite a lot of changes, some places have improved, and some places have regressed. Maybe it's due to the pressure of the update and the time problem.γAnd the plot is different.,It seems that the style is also very different.γ There's a little sense of loss. (To be continued.) )
