Chapter 199, with affection
Yelu Sage smiled slightly, and then said slowly: "You don't have to worry about this, your mother-in-law is also the eldest princess after all, and today's saint will look at Emperor Taizong's face to some extent, and she won't embarrass her mother-in-law!" ”
"That being said, for people who haven't seen their mother-in-law for such a long time, Hemin and I are very worried!" Yelu Xiyin deliberately pretended to be worried.
"Since you are so worried about your mother-in-law, why don't you ask the order to go into the palace to see your mother-in-law? I can't help if you come to me to complain? "How could Jerusage not know that little ninety-nine in Yelu's hidden heart? Last time, a large part of the reason why he was wrongfully rebelled was because of Yelu Xiyin's framing.
Although Yelu Sage is the youngest son of Emperor Taizong and one of the people who are most qualified to compete with Yelu Xian for the throne, he is not willing to reconcile the grievances of the previous generation. He just wants to be his prince in peace and live an ordinary life with Xiao Hepu.
But Yelu Xiyin is different, he is a complete careerist, thinking about being an emperor all day long, so he plots rebellion again and again.
It's just that he is a person who is extremely good at shirking responsibility, so every time he fails, he will find someone to bear the blame for himself. And in the last rebellion, Yelu Xiyin dragged Jelu Sage into the water, causing Jelu Sage to be misunderstood by Yelu Xian, and almost lost his head. Although the death penalty was pardoned in the end, the bitter cold of the western Xinjiang was still suffering. Since he had already suffered a loss before, how could Jeruzag be fooled this time?
"Now that my mother-in-law is under house arrest, how can I see it if I want to? Don't you know what kind of person Yeluxian is? His grandfather's throne was taken away by Emperor Taizong, and later his father died unexpectedly, do you think his heart will not hate the rest of the branches left by Emperor Taizu? Her mother-in-law was the eldest daughter of Emperor Taizong, so how could he let her mother-in-law go lightly? My mother-in-law is now pregnant. Even if this child is not the flesh and blood of the Xiao family, it is still a human life in the end! Ye Luxian may be extremely handful of children in his mother-in-law's womb at any time, are you really just sitting idly by? Yelu Xiyin said excitedly.
"I'm just a prince at home now, without any real power, I'm sorry I can't help you!" Jeruzag politely refused.
"Are you really so ruthless? Now that the Xiao family is so down, you and I, as sons-in-law, can't sit idly by! Yelu Xiyin still refused to give up and continued to persuade.
Jeruzag didn't have much patience anymore. So while getting up, he said lightly to Yelu Xiyin: "I'm sorry." I really can't help you with this, please ask for another master! Drop-off! ”
The butler, who had been waiting not far from the door, heard Jeruzag's cry and hurried over. Then he bowed slightly, and said to Yelu Xiyin with a smile: "Lord, please reads();!" ”
Yelu Xiyin was already very unhappy at this time, and he glared angrily at the idle Jerusage on the side. Then he said angrily, "Farewell!" And he walked away.
After Yelu Xiyin left, Xiao He, who had been staying in the back room, walked out with Zi'er in his arms.
"What he said just now. Have you heard? Jeruzag asked, raising an eyebrow.
Xiao Hepu nodded slightly, and then sat down slowly with Zi'er in his arms.
"What do you think about what just happened?" Jeruzag asked again.
"I don't know much about the affairs between you men. Today, the emperor has indeed placed his mother under house arrest, but his mother has committed a major crime of murder. Even if he is not the main culprit, he is an accomplice. If you follow the laws of the Great Liao, you will definitely be beheaded. But the third sister still asked the emperor to spare her mother's life. So what are we not satisfied with? Xiao Hexuan said while coaxing Ci'er in his arms.
Jeruzag nodded, then took over: "Yes." That's what I mean. Although she is your biological mother, it is also her fault in the end. What's more, your father still died because of her. The emperor is now magnanimously exempted from her murder and allowed her to give birth to a child, which is enough. Why do we have to fight with the emperor for this trivial matter? Now, I don't ask for anything, I just want our family of three to be safe! ”
"Did I hear from Yelu Heyin's words just now that he seems to be plotting again?" Xiao He expressed the doubts in his heart.
Yelu Sage nodded lightly and said slowly: "Yes, he is a person, and his mind is full of emperor's dreams. Originally, when Emperor Muzong died before, he thought that his opportunity had come. But who knew that your father chose to assist the current emperor. So the dream that Yelu Xiyin had had for so many years was shattered like that. On the surface, he is very submissive to the current emperor, but in fact, he is secretly co-opting his own forces in an attempt to rebel. ”
"Doesn't the emperor know now?" Hearing Jerusage's words, Xiao He's eyes widened and he looked at Jerusage incredulously.
Yelu Sage smiled slightly, and then said to Xiao Hexuan: "What a shrewd person the emperor is today, how can he not know it? In fact, the last time I was wrongfully accused of rebellion, it was the conspiracy of Yelu Xiyin. He thought that as long as he put someone to take the blame for him, he would be able to rest easy. But who would have thought that his every move was actually in the eyes of the emperor! It's just that the emperor doesn't say it! ”
"Since the emperor knows that you have been wronged, why should he punish you?" Xiao He asked puzzled.
"He's just making an example! Not to mention, I am one of the biggest threats to his throne, and it is normal for him to be angry with me. But because he knew that I was indeed wronged, he finally found a random excuse to let me go! Jeruzag said with a relaxed face.
"But he exiled you to the bitter cold land of Western Xinjiang, and damaged your body, and his heart is really ruthless!" As soon as he mentioned the matter of Jerusage's exile in the western frontier, Xiao Hepu felt sad.
"Okay, don't worry. My body is really fine now, and I still have to watch Ci'er grow up and marry a daughter-in-law! Don't blame the emperor, he sat in that seat, and he couldn't help himself. If it were me, I would do the same as him. And if he hadn't taken me away, how would I have known you were so infatuated with me? I'm really satisfied now, with you and Zi'er by my side, I have no regrets in this life! Jerusage looked at Xiao He with a gentle face and said.
"Me too, with you and Ci'er, I have no regrets in this life!" Xiao Hepu smiled gently.
The two of you look at me and I look at you, not at all like a couple who have been married for a long time, but like a couple who have just fallen in love. (To be continued.) )
