Chapter 297: Stubbornness
Mama Shang hadn't gone out here yet, Liu Kun was still holding Liu Ke's shirt and snuggling up to her, and Rong Shuo walked in in a dragon robe.
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
It was Liu Kun, the child, who reflected first, and knelt down to salute Rong Shuo in a decent manner: "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long live, long live." ”
When he had finished his prayers, the others shouted as well.
Rong Shuo's face was full of anger, and he said to Mama Shang: "Leave with the idle people above, I have something to say to Liu Guiren." ”
Mama Shang hurriedly pulled Liu Kun and Huaixiang out.
Only Liu Ke and Rong Shuo were left in the room.
Rong Shuo, who was originally angry, couldn't help but soften when he saw Liu Ke, who was still kneeling on the ground.
Walked up to her, reached out and helped her up by the elbow, and sighed helplessly: "Did your mother make you do that?" Why did you promise her? ”
Liu Ke looked at Rong Shuo with some puzzlement and asked, "What does Your Majesty mean?" ”
"Moving to the Chu Palace, did your mother ask you to move to the Chu Palace, and you agreed?" Rong Shuo lowered his head to Liu Ke's face with his back hand, and sighed: "When you lived in the Chu Palace, no matter what, where was still a complete home, but now you are just a dilapidated house, and then live in it, what kind of mood is it, I can understand that my mother did this just to stimulate you, so you were stupid and really agreed." ”
When Rong Shuo said this, there was heartache and helplessness in his tone.
Liu Ke looked at him in a daze, but didn't know how to answer.
When she was standing in front of the palace of King Chu just now, she was churning and almost collapsed in front of people.
Rong Shuo even thought of this.
Liu Ke wiped the tears left on his face with his hand, calmed his mind for a while, and said, "I want to go back to live by myself." It has nothing to do with the Queen Mother, I asked the Queen Mother to help repair the Chu Palace, and after the Chu Palace was repaired, I moved in. ”
After Rong Shuo heard this, he was stunned for a while, and took two steps back, a little incredulous. His voice trembled, "Why?" ”
Liu Ke lowered his head. He didn't dare to look at Rong Shuo's eyes, and said: "The new emperor ascended the throne and granted amnesty to the world, and the Chu Palace's mansion was raided by the emperor of the previous dynasty. Naturally, I am among the amnesties, and even so, I am the princess of the King of Chu, and I should go back to live in the palace of the King of Chu. ”
After she said that. Without waiting for Rong Shuo to reply, he continued: "Presumably the emperor also understands in his heart. With my identity and current situation, I am not suitable to live in the harem, and I can't live in the Jin Palace. ”
"Are you having trouble with yourself because of who you are? I'm the emperor now, and I say you're Liu Ke, and you're so. I said you weren't, and you weren't. Rong Shuo said these words coldly and sighed. He said in a soothing tone: "What I want is not only you as a person, but also your heart." So there are some things I don't do, but that doesn't mean I can't do them. ”
When Liu Ke heard this, she couldn't help but feel chills, she knew that Rong Shuo wasn't joking.
I only heard Rong Shuo continue: "I don't want you to be sad, but I also have a heart. ”
He turned and left.
Only Liu Ke was left standing on the ground in a daze.
Mama Shang was afraid that Rong Shuo would greet her, so she ordered Huaixiang to take Liu Kun to eat, while she stood not far from the Little Last Pavilion.
Seeing Rong Shuo come out with a black face, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Your Majesty, the child just now was brought back by Liu Guiren, and Liu Guiren asked him to be placed in the west room first." Mama Shang was afraid that if she didn't report this matter at this time, the emperor would blame her in the future, and she would not be able to shirk it.
After hearing this, Rong Shuo asked, "Who is that child?" ”
"It sounds like Liu Guiren's brother, Liu Guiren didn't say it, and the slave didn't dare to ask." Mama Shang said with a look of embarrassment.
"Is it from the Liu family?" Rong Shuoyi raised his eyebrows and said.
Mama Shang replied: "Listening to that child call Liu Guiren his sister, it should be a member of the Liu family." ”
Rong Shuo nodded and said, "According to what Liu Guiren said, let's place him in the West Room first." ”
Originally, Rong Shuo wanted to tell Mama Shang to pay more attention to Liu Ke's life, but after thinking about what happened just now, he held back again, flicked his sleeves and left with the waiters in the palace.
Mama Shang saw Rong Shuo leave with anger, obviously because of Liu Ke, and couldn't help but worry about her future.
At that time, Rong Shuo asked her to come to Liu Ke's side, and she thought she had a good job.
After all, it is the person Rong Shuo likes, if Liu Ke is an unmarried lady, then maybe she is the future queen, but later I slowly learned that Liu Ke not only married, but also married the prince of Chu.
This is lifeless, the queen mother said that it is impossible for the emperor to take such a woman, let alone the queen, even the concubine.
Now even the emperor doesn't seem to like Liu Ke anymore, she has to quickly find a way to get out of here.
While Mama Shang was thinking nonsense here, Huaixiang came back with Liu Kun.
Liu Kun trotted all the way into the small last pavilion.
Huaixiang wanted to catch him, but he didn't, so he had to shout from behind: "Little boy, be careful of bumping into the emperor." ”
Liu Kun didn't look back, and shouted as he ran: "The emperor is gone, you don't bluff me." Before the words fell, he had already entered Liu Ke's room.
Mama Shang told Huai Xiang about Rong Shuo's expression when she left just now, and sneered: "Didn't you see the emperor's face just now, it is darker than ink, I can't look at Liu Guiren for a long time, don't think that everything will be fine all day long if you please Liu Guiren, maybe we will be affected by her that day." ”
When Huaixiang heard this, she couldn't help but lose her mind.
Seeing this, Mama Shang said, "Why are you still standing stupidly, and you don't take someone to take care of the things that the kid uses on weekdays." ”
After speaking, Mama Shang said: "I haven't eaten a grain of rice since I got up early, I'll find something to eat first, and after you ask for something, go to the kitchen to eat, let's take care of ourselves first." ”
Huai Xiang couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this, and after Mama Shang left, she went to find the steward and no longer paid attention to Liu Kun's affairs.
At this time, Liu Ke was sitting on a chair in the middle hall in a daze, and when he heard Liu Kun come in, he raised his head and asked, "Where did you go to sweat?" ”
Seeing Liu Ke's pale face, Liu Kun pouted angrily and asked, "Did the Dog Emperor bully you?" ”
When Liu Ke heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward and covered Liu Kun's mouth. whispered: "Don't talk nonsense, you think this is at home, there are emperors everywhere here, you don't want to die." ”
Liu Kun sighed angrily, "If only I had grown up a little more, now that I am so young, I am treated as a child wherever I go." You can't do anything. ”
Liu Ke was amused by his words. "What are you doing here? My Liu Gongzi. ”
Liu Kun opened the hand that Liu Ke put on his head, and said angrily: "Don't worry, I'm here." I will definitely get you out of the cage, and when the time comes, we will find a place where there is no one, and we will raise your children together, and no one will bully you again. ”
Liu Ke listened to this. couldn't help laughing and said, "You're talking stupid things again, and you're raising children with me." Don't you have to take a wife and have children? ”
Liu Kun said earnestly: "I originally wanted to marry a wife and have children, but if you don't let me worry about it like this, how can I leave you alone, and then talk about it." I may not be able to meet the woman I like, forget it, it's better to live with you. At least peace of mind. ”
If you only listen to his tone, it will make people mistakenly think that Liu Ke is talking to an adult man. But now he is standing in front of Liu Ke, his height is only near Liu Ke's waist, and his childish face can't help but make people feel a sense of disobedience.
Although Liu Ke had heard Liu Kun talk like this before, he couldn't help but laugh at this time, "I've become a burden to you, and I'm really a little uneasy." ”
Liu Kun knew that Liu Ke didn't believe him.
He sighed helplessly and sat opposite Liu Ke: "You can not believe me now, but when I have the ability to take you away, you must believe me." ”
"Then you pinch your fingers and calculate, about when. I'd better prepare in advance so that I don't get panicked. ”
Before Liu Ke's words were finished, Liu Kun jumped off the chair, stood in front of Liu Ke and said, "Do you know? Yan Jie came back to save you, but now he feels that the time is not ripe, so now he is settled in Dajue Temple, do you know why I want to come back with you? ”
Liu Ke saw Liu Kun's serious face, and said, "Do you want to make an internal response to the master of the Yan Ring?" ”
"You're not stupid yet." Liu Kun glanced at Liu Ke and said.
The corners of Liu Ke's mouth raised, and he said, "Then why do you do this internal response, are you excellent in martial arts, or are you skilled in royal people?" ”
Liu Kun let out a rough breath and said: "I am a child's body, an adult's IQ, easy to hide and act, this is my advantage, do you think that without my internal response, it is easy to rescue you and the child completely?" ”
Liu Ke saw that what he said was the way, and was about to praise him, when he heard footsteps outside, he put his index finger on his lips and made a silent motion.
After a while, Huaixiang came in with a food box.
At this time, Liu Ke remembered that he had not yet had lunch.
Liu Kun was placed in the west room and lived.
For several days, Rong Shuo did not come to the door again.
This also seems to confirm what Mama Shang said to Huaixiang.
Huai Xiangyuan still served Liu Ke well, and now he is not as dedicated as before.
Liu Ke didn't care about them, but it was rare that Liu Kun also endured it.
Rong Shuo's enthronement ceremony has passed, and the future affairs have been put on the agenda.
Almost every day, people come up to ask for this.
The Empress Dowager Zhou also discussed with Jiang Cheng a lot of post-election methods.
Rong Shuo wanted to suppress it first several times, but he was drowned back by everyone's spit.
Originally, many officials were waiting for this matter, but now with the support of the Queen Mother, they are even more dedicated to doing this.
Rong Shuo doesn't want to be an unfilial person, nor does he want to be a faint king who has been stinking for thousands of years, and in the face of the current scene, he seems to understand Liu Ke's stubbornness.
As soon as I thought of this, my heart pierced into my heart like a fine needle, and it was full of pain.
He now has a feeling of being embarrassed to see Liu Ke again.
But the bitter lovesickness for Liu Ke made him unable to control his body.
After determining the queen's candidate, Rong Shuo took off his dragon robe and left the palace from the west gate in a black carriage.
When he arrived at the gate of the Jin Palace, he did not get out of the car.
The people who followed outside shouted on both sides: "Your Majesty has arrived at the Jin Palace." He came back to his senses.
I lifted the curtain and walked down slowly.
He stood at the door for a while, but got into the carriage again and said, "Go back." ”
The attendant didn't dare to ask more, and drove the carriage back again.
When he arrived at the palace, he learned that the renovation of the Chu Palace's mansion was almost completed, and he called the chief eunuch of the internal affairs office and instructed: "You go and do it yourself, and change all the furniture in the Chu Palace, replace the pear wood, no, change the nanmu, the courtyard where the original Chu prince and the princess lived was demolished and rebuilt, and the flowers and plants inside were also changed." ”
When the head of the Internal Affairs Office heard this, he said with a look of embarrassment: "Your Majesty, the rest is easy to do, but now that it is almost winter, I am afraid that this flower and plant will not be able to be raised again." ”
Rong Shuo said impatiently: "I don't care about this, you can figure it out." ”
The head of the Internal Affairs Office couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he heard the emperor's unreasonable words.
Rong Shuo waved his hand and sent him down.
He had no choice but to go to Cining Palace to ask the Queen Mother for help.
After listening to the words of the chief manager, the Queen Mother smiled and said, "Since the emperor has arranged it this way, you can do what he says." ”
After the head of the Internal Affairs Office left with a sad face, Zhou smiled and said to Mama Wu: "As the Liu family said, the emperor is still a person who focuses on the overall situation in the end, and his doing this today shows that he has admitted to this matter." ”
Seeing that the Queen Mother was in a good mood, Mama Wu smiled and said: "It's just that in this cold autumn, people have changed all the flowers and plants in the Chu Palace, but it's a little embarrassing, I don't know what to do with the head of the Internal Affairs Mansion." ”
"It's all a trivial matter, but it can't be changed, it's hard to become an emperor and kill people, and it's not the emperor's character to take human lives for this." The Queen Mother knows her son very well.
After saying this, the Queen Mother asked: "Have the people around the emperor inquired about Shi Xiu?" ”
Mama Wu said truthfully: "The slave maid didn't get any news about this, maybe the emperor secretly sent someone to inquire, after all, the emperor didn't say he didn't agree, which means that the emperor has approved Miss Shi in his heart." ”
When the Queen Mother heard this, she was still smiling just now, but at this time, she looked sad and sighed: "Where does he recognize Shi Xiu, but there is no Liu family, and he doesn't care who is the queen." If the Liu family is good and not married, the mourning family is not unreasonable, and he will definitely not let him suffer such grievances, but the Liu family is already a wife, how can he still enter the royal door. Thinking about it, now the emperor has also figured it out, but he feels uncomfortable, so that's why it's like this. ”
Mama Wu saw that the Queen Mother was worried, and couldn't help but comfort her again.
"The slave maid sees that Miss Shi is very dignified and virtuous, and she will be able to save Her Majesty's heart, now they have not yet married, and it will be good to wait for them to become married, a beautiful and dignified queen dangles in front of the emperor every day, and the emperor will slowly let go of the Liu family no matter how much he likes it."
Zhou's worry is that although Shi Xiu is dignified, he is much worse than Liu Ke in appearance, but she can't say this, so she can only take one step at a time.
After the queen's people were selected, the news quickly spread to the Shi family.
Shi Xiu was stunned when he heard this.
For many years, she dreamed of marrying a man like Rong Shuo, and now not only has her dream come true, but this man will also bring her supreme glory. (To be continued)
