Chapter 234 Plea
Mingzhu lived in the palace, Zhou Li came back, a military uniform was strong and mighty, first went to meet the emperor, I heard that his son came back with everyone today, King Rong deliberately came to the palace early to wait for his son, today he wore new clothes, sat aside with a smile on his face and waited anxiously, and the old man with his neck stretched out looked out.
The emperor couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw it, "Don't you usually don't want to see this son?" Why is this so uneasy? ”
King Rong flattened his mouth, "I'm a strict upbringing, I'm afraid he will be raised crooked, okay?" What's wrong with being strict with boys? She stiffened her neck unconvinced.
"How did I hear that my uncle rarely scolds Brother Li, most of them are reasonable and encouraged, it seems that you can't do that? It's not as good as my uncle's teaching. The Emperor scoffed.
"I won't fight with you, anyway, my son is back, you get a reward, you can't do it less." King Rong was not angry, his heart was full of his son's meritorious service, and the pride in the corners of his eyebrows and eyes could not be concealed.
The emperor shook his head and smiled, and stopped arguing with this stupid father.
After a while, Zhou Li came in, dressed in a black uniform, kneeling on one knee, holding a knife in his right hand, "Minister Zhou Li knocks on the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" The sons and daughters knock on their father, and the father is healthy! ”
The emperor stood up, personally helped Zhou Li up, and looked at this nephew carefully, his skin was tanned, and he looked very energetic, and he grew taller. Lean and lean, a pair of Danfeng eyes are bright and bright, but his appearance is more and more clear and handsome, more powerful, bright and cold, and he looks more and more like a real man.
"Good! Good! Good! It is worthy of being the descendant of my Great Zhou, good job! The Emperor laughed loudly, and his mood was rare with joy.
"Brother Li, you have made great contributions to suppressing bandits this time. What do you say? The emperor was in a very good mood and immediately asked.
In the past three years, Zhou Li has traveled to many places in the northwest to conduct training and garrisoning, and found a small group of Tartars in a team patrol mission, and all cooperated to take it down. The guards escorted him as he fled. They captured him alive.
When the news came back, the emperor had a new idea, and after consulting with the minister, he stood still and secretly issued an order. Let Zhou Li bring people to Beijing, and detain people first.
Zhou Li knelt down again, "Uncle Huang, Brother Li only wants to ask for one thing." ”
"Say." The emperor is in a good mood, as long as it is not excessive, he can agree.
King Rong didn't feel anything. Presumably, his son will not ask for anything excessive, and he still believes in his son.
"Brother Li wants to marry Shangguan Mingzhu. I wanted to marry her, but Grandpa Shangguan said that unless I could come back like a person, I would not consider marrying my granddaughter to me, otherwise I would not agree. Brother Li only wants to ask for this one thing. I can earn the rest with my own hands. Zhou Li also has his own pride, what is the meaning of the military merits he begged for, he is not so shameless.
The emperor turned around and stared deeply at Zhou Li. The look in his eyes was a little complicated, and the news from his uncle said that Brother Li was very talented. He put all his hopes on this child, hoping that he could trust Brother Li and give Brother Li a chance.
"This matter will be discussed later, and I will consider it at my discretion." The emperor grimaced and did not immediately agree.
Zhou Li raised his head suddenly, looking a little anxious, and looked at King Rong with eyes for help, hoping that his father could help him speak, and King Rong twisted his eyebrows and shook his head slightly and nodded, and glanced at him, which means that you go down first, let me slow down.
"The minister retired. Hum! The liar said he was going to reward me. Zhou Li grunted twice in dissatisfaction, and left deafly with a face unhappy.
The Emperor laughed, "Look at your son, he is getting bolder. ”
"I think it's because you don't talk about credit, and you say that you want to give a reward, but you won't give anything, can the child not complain about you?" King Rong didn't speak directly, but he also expressed his meaning.
"Mingzhu is a good boy, better than Princess Duan back then." The emperor twisted the wrench in his hand to mean something.
King Rong was shocked, and suddenly understood, the emperor wanted to leave it to his son, and he was reluctant to give it to Brother Li, so he sighed in his heart, it seems that Brother Li is destined to be disappointed? It's a pity in my heart.
"Yes, the queen mother has put a lot of effort into raising Mingzhu over the years, and I told my mother that I was going to prepare a dowry for Mingzhu, and asked my mother what things are better." King Rong joked.
The emperor frowned, and sighed again, "The matter of Mingzhu has to be discussed with the queen mother, even if I can't be the master." The conversation softened.
King Rong was overjoyed, there was still a chance.
"Go and ask the queen mother."
"Okay, this kid will go to Cining Palace to complain, let's go quickly." King Rong smiled.
"Humph! Your son is a slippery head. The Emperor snorted angrily.
Zhou Li withdrew from the study, wrinkling his brows and pondering, Uncle Huang's expression just now was indeed hesitant, it seems that something happened when Mingzhu came back this time? Or did the imperial uncle change his mind and want to match the pearl to which prince?
That's not good, you can't let people dig into my corner.
Without saying a word, I went to Cining Palace, and I really went to sue.
"Imperial Grandmother, Brother Li has come to see you." Zhou Li entered the hall happily with his voice raised.
"Oops! It's Brother Li who is back, you see Brother Li is changing, you see if Brother Li has become good, I look like a gentleman, Jun! The Queen Mother took a look at it, and looked at Brother Li's handsome, tall and mighty atmosphere, and smiled with joy.
"Grandmother, grandson is back." Zhou Li knelt on the ground with a puff and kowtowed to the Queen Mother and the Concubine.
The concubine covered her face with a handkerchief, and couldn't help but cry like rain, she was worthy of her dead daughter-in-law, the child was finally not raised crookedly, and she also had the face to go down to see her daughter-in-law.
"Oops! What a happy thing, what are you crying about, it makes my old woman want to cry too, Mingzhu quickly pull up and coax. The Queen Mother also had tears in her eyes, this child is angry, it is worth everyone's trouble for him.
Mingzhu stepped forward and pulled Zhou Li up, with a smile on the corner of his mouth and a look of admiration in his eyes, looking at the tall and handsome Zhou Li, a little familiar and a little unfamiliar, unconsciously Zhou Li has grown into a man who can make himself look up and admire, not the boy who can only play clever back then.
"Hurry up, what to do to make the concubine shed tears, go and coax, otherwise I won't give you tea and blow you out." Mingzhu took the handkerchief and swept him in disgust, knocking it on his face.
Zhou Li smiled and leaned over and hugged the concubine's arm coquettishly, "Grandmother, look at don't shed tears, you cry Mingzhu wants to bombard me away, I'm so easy to come." I was blasted out before I even drank the tea, but I was ashamed! ”
"Stinky boy should blast you out, did you say bad things about me?" The Emperor happened to enter the door at this time.
Zhou Li snorted and looked up and laughed, laughing happily like a child. (To be continued.) )
