Mingzhu smiled, the queen mother doesn't like Zhou Wan'er, naturally she won't care about it, she just listens to gossip and watches the excitement, such a major event is discussed by the courtiers, and it is not the turn of the woman's family to decide.

"If you want me to say, every time the courtiers ask to send the princess to send the daughter of the clan to make peace, it is too unfair, it would be good if the daughter of an official above the third grade could also be a reserve candidate." Pearl shrugged.

As a former princess, there is a natural fear and resentment towards her relatives, this hatred has penetrated deep into the bone marrow, but she is powerless to refute, and she must hold her head high and meet the unknown aquatic and fiery life with a noble attitude.

"Aren't you afraid that our girl will be chosen?" The Queen Mother smiled funny, touched her head, felt that Mingzhu was very cute, knew that she was very disgusted with the matter of kissing, and was also very uncomfortable with the fate of the princesses, but whether it was a princess or a prince, there were not many ways to choose.

"Don't worry, because the courtiers will oppose it together, this matter can't be done at all, but you can scare them and send other people's girls to go thousands of miles to get married, but don't feel distressed, you can ...... when your own girls are chosen. If you want me to say that this decision can still be implemented, because the final candidate is still decided by the emperor's uncle, whoever shouts the most will let his girl go to kiss and see if he is distressed? Mingzhu gritted her teeth and said childish words fiercely.

"I think Mingzhu's method is good, why didn't I think of it!" The emperor came in laughing, followed by the four princes.

Mingzhu immediately jumped down and saluted the emperor respectfully, "Uncle Emperor, why have you lost weight again, and you look a little darker." You're on fire, I'll make you a cup of tea, it's best to go to the liver fire. She nodded thoughtfully.

The emperor was not annoyed by what he said, but he was in a very good mood and laughed, "Okay, it's still Mingzhu intimate." ”

Mingzhu personally brewed the tea and served it, and the emperor took a sip, his eyes lit up, "Well, this is the tea with pine needles and bamboo leaves you made last time, why does it taste slightly different this time, and the taste is more fragrant." ”

"It seems that the water is different." The fourth prince also took a sip, and opened his mouth with some doubts.

Mingzhu smiled proudly, "It's just that the water is different, I use snow water from bamboo leaves, and I only have a small urn after collecting it for a winter, and I left it for the Queen Mother, and even my grandfather has never drunk it." ”

"Hahaha, I just said, last time I invited my uncle to drink this tea, my uncle said that it was a little bit worse, and I also said that he was very demanding, and it really was a little bit worse."

"Hehe, you don't know that collecting snow water is very hard, I am embarrassed to let the palace people **** follow me to collect snow water, so I have to take the maid to do it myself, so I got a little bit, and I was reluctant to take it out. This snow water is very cool, and now it is just right for you to drink the defeat fire. Mingzhu explained with a smile.

"Well, that's good. Girl, that's a very good idea, tell me about it. The Emperor asked him again about the joke he had just made.

Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, her eyes were a little dazed and stunned, "I really said it casually, I just think the courtiers have some of that...... It's not my own children and I don't feel distressed, but I can practice the princesses, and the princesses are eating, drinking, dressing and serving, and when they grow up, they are waiting for the flowers and the moon to dress up and kiss, and then they are depressed and die in a foreign country? ”

"Pearl!" The Queen Mother snorted with a straight face, looking a little displeased.

The emperor also lowered his face and raised his hand to stop the queen mother's reprimand, "You go on, I want to hear the truth, they are all my daughters, and I feel distressed!" A faint sigh told the emperor's helplessness.

Mingzhu unconsciously shed tears and wiped her face fiercely, "What's wrong with the princess?" What's in your way? Eat and drink well and raise them, waiting to be fattened and slaughtered? Can peace and kinship be spared fifty years of war? Can you? Which dynasty hasn't fought in 50 years? Trick yourself into playing? If a woman can be spared a future battlefield, then where will the soldiers and martyrs who died on the battlefield defending their families and the country be placed? Did they deserve to die? ”

The more he cried, the more fierce he became, just desperately shedding tears, but stubbornly refused to make a choked word.

"My grandfather had countless wounds of all sizes, and even the shoes on his feet had to be carefully sewn by my grandmother and mother to wear them, and my grandmother couldn't see clearly when she was old, so my mother learned to sew, one pair could not be two pairs, until my grandfather was comfortable to wear, and my father had such a long scar on his back that almost killed him. The back was so pitted that it was almost impossible to find a good skin.

There are many spiritual positions in our Shangguan family, which is shocking, but in the end, what they exchanged for women's nepotism was to exchange for peace, is their death worth it! Those soldiers who died on the battlefield are not worth dying! The women who have lost their sons, fathers, husbands, children, are not worth looking forward to! Wouldn't it be better to send a woman over? Why are so many soldiers still dead? Mingzhu couldn't cry at the end, with resentment in her eyes.

How many princesses and queens can return to their hometowns alive? The bitterness and grievances here can not be explained in one word.

The emperor's uncle was silent, and the four princes also looked solemn.

"Mingzhu, your words are so heart-piercing!" The emperor raised his head and raised his hands to cover his face, unable to speak for a long time.

"After the assassination incident in the summer resort, I began to practice martial arts with my heart, and I practiced for two hours when others practiced for one hour. My grandfather said that you don't have the talent to learn martial arts, it's useless. Why don't I find two people to protect you?" But I just don't believe it, what's wrong with no talent? I don't have talent, I can run fast when I encounter danger, I can run faster than others, I only worship the strong, as long as my fists are hard enough, others will not dare to bully me, in the same way, as long as I have enough talents and good generals in Dazhou, why trouble thieves from the Western Regions to commit, I will fight back until he is afraid, and beat until he can't get up. ”

From beginning to end, Mingzhu did not approve of harmony, whether it was because of political factors or other objective reasons, she stubbornly believed that how could a woman influence a court not to invade and snatch attractive interests, this is simply a sheep's mouth.

The emperor couldn't speak for a long time, and only after a long time did he smile bitterly, "When I was your age, my uncle also told me that men are going to stand up to the sky, and my uncle is going to fight, so I will beat them back to their hometown so that they will never dare to come again." Uncle did it. But today I don't have the courage to do so, Mingzhu, I don't want to be happy and revenge, but I can't, such a big court, the people of Dazhou are my responsibility, I have the responsibility to let them live and work in peace and contentment, no longer suffer from the war and displacement, sacrificing a daughter can exchange for ten years of peace for the border people, can I say no?
