In the imperial study, Jiang Yulin and Lin Zhaoyi knelt in front of Jiang Yuandi, and Concubine Tong showed regret on her face, only a fleeting indifference and coldness flashed in her eyes.

"What did you say?" Jiang Yuandi could hardly believe his ears.

"Father, the child is willing to marry the prince of Liguo and conclude the good fortune of Qin and Jin." Jiang Yulin said unhurriedly, the expression on her face was so calm, as if she had already been mentally prepared.

Lin Zhaoyi didn't speak, just knelt beside her daughter, and didn't look up at any expression of the emperor. Now every word and word of Jiang Yulin makes her feel heartache. But she has no choice, this is her daughter's choice, and it is also Jiang Dongyu's last way of life.

It's still worth exchanging a bitter life departure for an upcoming death.

Jiang Yuandi's body trembled slightly, and suddenly his eyes fell on Lin Zhaoyi, who was speechless, "You are her mother, do you also agree?" Will you say yes? ”

Lin Zhaoyi's hands in her sleeves were clenched tightly, her nails were almost embedded in the flesh, no matter how painful it was, it couldn't be as distressed as her heart, "Concubine...... Promise! ”

At that moment, she felt that she had pushed her only daughter into the fire pit.

"Why am I reluctant to agree, I just don't want to give Lin'er, why do you still force me?" Jiang Yuandi trembled with anger, he had hurt Jiang Yulin for so many years, and only this daughter was the most popular with him. Since childhood, he has been accustomed to her and arrogant her to the point of being incomparable. Now, she actually asked to marry. After so many years of pain, she broke it when she said it, how ruthless was it, where did she put him, a father?

"Father, Lin'er knows that my father has loved me since I was a child, and Lin'er has received great favor from her parents, how dare she disobey her father and mother's wishes and marry in a foreign country. But Lin'er and the fourth brother's affection, the father knows. So Lin'er was brave and wanted to use Lin'er's body to exchange the fourth brother's safety. Father, Lin'er, please, promise me! Jiang Yulin kowtowed heavily.

At that moment, Lin Zhaoyi's tears suddenly rolled down, it was her flesh, it was a thorn in her heart. Now that she has pulled it out, she will pull it out, and teach her how to be a mother.

"You!" Jiang Yuandi didn't expect that the reason why Jiang Yulin was willing to marry far away was for Jiang Dongyu. It's just that the affection between their brother and sister is extraordinary, Jiang Yuandi knows it, but he is reluctant to give up the daughter he has protected in the palm of his hand since he was a child. How can you give it?

Lin Zhaoyi cried, "I beg the emperor to fulfill it!" ”

"Are you crazy? This is your own daughter, how can you give it up? Jiang Yuandi yelled angrily at Lin Zhaoyi.

The slightly trembling and slightly choked roar, even Concubine Tong was a little stunned. She didn't expect that the emperor would be so reluctant to marry Jiang Yulin, so it can be seen that it is right to marry Jiang Yulin far away. But anyone who makes the emperor reluctant should disappear, and all the grace can only be Jingdegong, which is her Tong Eryun!

"The concubine knows, but the concubine has no choice! The concubines can't watch the four princes die in prison! Your Majesty, the fourth prince is also your biological son, the tiger poison does not eat children, her mother Concubine Nanfei died early, and Concubine Nan has only such a son under her knees. Can you just bear to watch Concubine Nan's vein completely cut off? This was the first time Lin Zhaoyi had spoken to the emperor in her life, and she had never said anything to anyone in such an almost roaring tone, let alone the current emperor.

At this moment, she is already in pain. What a mother, what an emperor, what a country and a country, how can it compare to a trace of her daughter's hair. But she couldn't help it, almost to the point of despair. Lin Zhaoyi has been in the palace for many years, and she doesn't know the queen's methods, but she just disdains to fight for it. But now, she can only use her daughter to fight for Jiang Dongyu to survive, otherwise, even if she is dead, how can she have the face to see Concubine Nan under Jiuquan?

The word Nanfei was like a heavy hammer, smashing into Jiang Yuandi's heart.

The emperor, who was originally thunderous, fell silent in an instant, and sat down on the dragon chair without saying a word.

In the end, he can't give up his daughter, so he has to give up the son of his beloved.

Two roads were before him, and he would lose a child in both directions.

Concubine Tong's eyes turned slightly, she walked over shallowly, and called in a low voice, "Your Majesty, since Sister Zhaoyi and the Fifth Princess have made up their minds, I am afraid that it will be difficult to have room for maneuver in this matter." What's more, the prince of Liguo is so pressing, the emperor should make a decision early, the world is the most important. ”

"The world is important?" Jiang Yuandi straightened up, what a weight these four words were. In a word, how many things did he lose? Freedom, beloved, supreme imperial power, and now his sons and daughters.

Jiang Yulin kowtowed gently, "Father Emperor Mingjian, Lin'er is willing to be eternal for his father's country and marry Prince Liguo." Please allow your father's permission! ”

"Say no more!" Jiang Yuandi closed his eyes in pain.

"Father, my daughter has made up her mind, if her father doesn't give Lin'er, her father knows Lin'er's character. Lin'er was willing to die and went with the fourth brother, which also saved the fourth brother from being alone on Huangquan Road. "Jiang Yulin's temperament is very similar to Jiang Dongyu, the same stubbornness, the same love and righteousness.

Jiang Yuandi's eyes suddenly rose with mist, an old man who is over half a hundred years old, but he has to face the choice of his children when he is old, what kind of heartache should it be. His body couldn't stop shaking, "Don't force me! ”

"Your Majesty, please ask the emperor to marry the prince of Liguo in exchange for the fourth prince Zhou Quan. I beg you, concubine! Lin Zhaoyi cried out loud, sobbing constantly, and her tears were like beads with broken threads.

A mother who exchanges her daughter for someone else's son, who can imagine that her heart is like a knife?

It's not that she doesn't hurt, she just doesn't want Concubine Nan's soul to be uneasy. She owes Concubine Nan too much, and now she finally has the opportunity to repay her kindness. Jiang Yulin's relationship with Jiang Dongyu, she knows that her relationship with Jiang Dongyu is like a parent, how can it not hurt? Whether she gave up Jiang Yulin or Jiang Dongyu, she was sprinkling salt in her heart.

This kind of pain, she can only endure it alone.

's daughter is married far away, and in the palace in the future, I am afraid that she will be left alone. No one will ever remember her again, but for the sake of Jiang Dongyu, she would rather be in the cold palace.

"She's your daughter!" Jiang Yuandi cut his teeth.

Lin Zhaoyi stubbornly raised her head, this was the first time that Jiang Yuandi saw a glimmer of light and distressing unbearability on her face that had been calm for decades, "The concubine knows!" Therefore, the concubine is willing to let Lin'er marry far away in exchange for a life for the four princes. Instead of letting the four princes die, it is better to let Lin'er marry far away, at least in this way, both of them can live. ”

Jiang Yuandi nodded fiercely, "Okay!" Good! Good! I will fulfill you! Tomorrow, I will pass on the decree to let Lin'er marry the prince of Liguo. Let the four princes get out of prison! ”

The expressions on Jiang Yulin and Lin Zhaoyi's faces were numb and gloomy, there was no joy or compassion, they just closed their eyes in pain and kowtowed heavily to Jiang Yuandi, "Thank you Emperor Longen." ”
