First, I ask for a subscription to ask for pink!

Xiao Ming smiled bitterly and said gloomily: "What else can it be, naturally because of Jing Yu, the mother concubine said that her biggest concession is to let Jing Yu enter the door as a concubine." ”
Xiao Qi's brows locked deeply, "You agreed?" ”
Xiao Ming shook his head, "I didn't say anything, the concubine said she was tired, so I left." ”
"So how do you choose? Obey your mother's command or follow your heart? Xiao Qi looked at him and asked lightly.
"I don't know what to do." Xiao Ming still shook his head, his expression was extremely painful and tangled, he suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Qi's hand and said, "Big brother, what do you think I should do?" I don't want to disobey my mother, I don't want my mother to be sad, it's just, it's just that I don't want to be sorry for Jingyu, I want to grow old with her! Big brother, what the hell do you think I'm going to do? ”
"I'm not you, and I can't make any decisions for you." Xiao Qi gently withdrew his hand, then looked at Xiao Ming, and said word by word: "I only know that Lu Dao, being able to follow your heart is the happiest thing in this world, in this life, there are thousands of choices to make, how many are involuntarily, and how many are freewheeling?" You don't have to choose between birth, family background, and parents, if you can't even make your own marriage and love, it's an extremely sad thing, and you're not forced to do so. ”
Xiao Ming was stunned, and only after a long time did he say, "Does the eldest brother want me to choose Jingyu?" ”
Xiao Qi chuckled and shook his head, "I want you to follow your own heart, if you are inclined to Zhou Jingyu, you will marry her, and you are inclined to the mother concubine." You just let her go. But no matter what you decide, there's only one thing you have to remember. Don't let people be concubines. What is a concubine? The concubine is to be subservient to others for the rest of her life, and to kowtow to another woman for the rest of her life. Even if her status is as noble as a concubine, isn't it the same to bend the knee to the queen? No matter how much you love her, your status will never change, and even after death, she can't be buried with you, do you understand? ”
Just like he said to Zhao'er, that prophecy is not unbreakable, but he doesn't want her to be a concubine. I don't want to complain to each other in the future life and wear out the affection between them.
Xiao Ming's face changed suddenly because of these words, and he said in a panic: "If I let Jing Yu be a concubine, she will definitely hate me to death with such an arrogant temperament!" ”
Xiao Qi nodded, "So, how do you choose?" ”
Xiao Ming wrinkled his eyebrows and struggled for a long time before he made up his mind and said with a smile: "I choose Jingyu." I want to follow my heart! ”
No matter how disappointed the mother concubine will be, he does not want to be a puppet who lives for the mother concubine.
He doesn't like to be the emperor, he doesn't like court battles, and he doesn't like the seventy-two concubines in the three palaces, six courts, and the seventy-two concubines. He just wants Jing Yu, to get along with her, and to grow old!
Xiao Qi also overflowed with a shallow smile.
Xiao Ming's decision. It made him feel a little relieved.
It was probably because he had no way to follow his own heart that he was particularly concerned about Xiao Ming's choice.
"But Chengnanbo's Mansion is surrounded by the second prince. Jingyu was also locked up, and she wrote to me to save her. I'm trapped by my mother now, and there's nothing I can do. Xiao Ming anxiously asked Xiao Qi for help, "Big brother, you are so powerful, there must be a way, right?" ”
Xiao Qi frowned, although he had known the plan of the second prince of Lu Dao and Lin Zhaoyan for a long time, he was still a little uncomfortable in the face of this result.
Now the person who can protect Zhao'er is no longer him.
"Don't worry, the second prince is frank and straightforward, and he will not involve innocent people, and the rest of Chengnanbo Mansion will be fine, but it really can't be done, I will also help you find a way to keep Zhou Jingyu safe." Xiao Qi didn't let himself think much about it, and quickly made a decision.
Now that we have come to this point, it is no longer time to be indecisive.
Let go of what you want, let him go!
"Then what about Shen Zhongling? What to do with Southwest Bo? Xiao Ming thought of something else, and his brows tightened again.
Southwest Bo's power in the southwest is like the sky, and offending him is really not a good thing.
"You don't have to worry about that." Xiao Qi curled his lips and smiled lightly, his eyes hidden a coldness that could condense people into ice, "I...... I will marry you for you. ”

Three days later, Zhou Tingchen privately made a dragon robe and attempted to rebel, and the news spread in Shengjing City.
The entire government and the opposition were shocked.
The emperor was even more furious after knowing the Tao, and immediately ordered to cut off his title of major general and the hereditary title of Chengnan Bofu, and punished his clan, and his immediate family members, regardless of men and women, were fined to confiscate the army, and the side branches of the clan were also confiscated from the family property to fill the treasury.
There was an uproar.
Plotting against the big crime and obsessively wanting to respect the throne, this is really a mantis arm as a car for an upstart house that has just been reused and has a weak power, and the moth fights the fire, which is almost a clear thing that will fail.
In addition, Zhou Tingchen also accumulated a lot of contacts in the court, and many ministers had private connections with him, so it was impossible to get rid of it in time, so he began to admonish that someone had framed him, and asked the emperor to investigate the case thoroughly.
Zhou Tingchen is the right-hand man cultivated by the third prince, and now he is cut off and distressed, he was originally going to stand still, he was gradually shaken by the wind in the court, and he also began to stand up and intercede for Zhou Tingchen.
It is normal for them to stage a few grief-stricken and impassioned dramas in the court every day, and they must be impeached for good and bad things as if to show their ability, so the emperor generally turns a blind eye and follows them.
But the third prince is the emperor's own son, and someone wants to pull him off the platform, he doesn't say that he has the same hatred for the enemy, but even helps the opponent to speak, which angers the emperor's nerve that he can't touch the most.
It is said that the emperor was furious on the spot in the Xuanhe Palace, and was so angry that he smashed the jade seal directly at the three princes kneeling under His Royal Highness, scolding him for being a rebel, and saying that he was in collusion with Zhou Tingchen, and was also suspected of rebellion, and wanted to execute him together.
It's hard to say this, although everyone knows that Lu Dao is angry talk, but when the prince gets involved in this kind of thing, the first to bear the brunt is the ministers below.
A group of ministers from the Three Princes' Party all knelt down in hula and shouted, "The emperor thinks twice!" ”
The third prince was also frightened, and immediately knelt down and begged for mercy to explain. said bluntly: "Erchen didn't mean that. ”
The emperor looked at him in a panic and felt even more angry, if it weren't for the second prince standing up and pleading in time. said some good things step by step, and the third prince had to be condemned.
But that's all there is to it. The third prince was also so frightened that he didn't dare to jump around anymore, and he kept to himself for a while.
Lin Zhaoyan was in the Jian'an Hou Mansion, and he could also feel the panicked and cautious atmosphere after being affected by the three princes.
And because she is the second princess of the quasi-second prince, Mrs. Lin almost pulled her over to "talk" every once in a while, and what she said was nothing more than to let her not forget her roots, and let her go to the second prince to keep the Hou Mansion at a critical moment.
Lin Zhaoyan responded one by one on his face, but his heart was full of disdain.
If something happens to the second prince, I'm afraid that the Hou Mansion will leave her clearer than anyone else. Will you remember that she is a girl from the Hou Mansion at that time?
But she was surprised that the third prince would be stupid to be so virtuous.
It wasn't until he inadvertently chatted with the second prince about this matter that he knew that all this was planned by him, and he said casually: "Although I don't want to turn against the third brother, he really hates it, so I will use other methods to give him a taste of bitterness, otherwise do you really think that there are so many officials who are not afraid of death?" ”
Lin Zhaoyan smiled helplessly, but he was very happy in his heart.
God knows how happy she is when she sees Mrs. Lin being in a panic all day long!
The second prince said: "Moreover, because of this incident, I know a few more parties of the third prince that have not been found." There is little evidence, but it is always good to be careful. ”
Lin Zhaoyan especially appreciates his way of doing things.
I won't harm you, and you won't want to hurt me, if you don't forgive. I'm not going to back down.
She felt that in this world, there were not many people who lived as clearly as the second prince.
Of course, these are just words. Now she is still worried about the involvement of Chengnanbo Mansion.
Although the second prince said early on that she didn't have to worry, saying that he must have the ability to change the emperor's judgment and ensure that the Nanbo Mansion is safe. But she was still overwhelmed by the huge guilt in her heart.
There is no letter of fornication and treason, and if that letter is really used by someone with a heart to make a fuss. Not to mention Chengnanbo Mansion, as the mother of the three princes, the Jian'an Hou Mansion will definitely die!
Whose heart is so ruthless?
The first thing she thought of was naturally Prince Fengqing, because the dragon robe was the one she asked Prince Fengqing to secretly hide in Zhou Tingchen's mansion.
Zhou Tingchen is suspicious by nature, there are many organs in the house, and strangers can't frame him at all, but Fengqing Gongzi, who is the favored son of the third prince, is different, he has martial arts, and it is easy to frame him when he enters the palace to sing.
But she quickly dismissed her idea.
The prince of Fengqing hates the Jian'an Hou Mansion, but there is still a woman in the Jian'an Hou Mansion!
Although she has a marriage contract with the second prince, she has not married after all, and she still belongs to a part of the Hou Mansion of Jian'an, if something happens to the Hou Mansion, she will definitely be implicated, so the son of Fengqing, who loves his sister, will never take risks.
So who will it be?
A simple pile of letters, but how many powerful people in Shengjing City will be involved?
At that time, the government was turbulent and people's hearts were unstable, and they really reaped the greatest rewards with the least effort.
The key is to seize the moment!
Who would be so powerful?
"Ink Cream." A voice whispered in his head.
She was stunned.
"Maybe it's Xiao Wangfu." The voice continued, "The government is in turmoil, and only the two sides are in the best interest. ”
"Are you sure? Have you ever had a previous life? Lin Zhaoyan asked.
"Yes, I'm sure. Although there was no such thing in my previous life, I must have been one of them, maybe it was not necessarily a team. ”
Lin Zhaoyan's eyebrows twisted deeply, "You mean to say that this matter was Xiao Qi's idea?" ”
Ink Cream is for Xiao Qi!
Naturally, she felt uncomfortable, how could she say that she was also from the Marquis of Jian'an's Mansion, did Xiao Qi so impatient to leave her for the throne?
"How can it be Aqi, why don't you even trust him?" The real Lin Zhaoyan's voice sounded strongly dissatisfied.
Lin Zhaoyan breathed a sigh of relief, then felt a little embarrassed, coughed, and changed the topic: "According to what you mean, there are people in Xiao Wangfu besides Xiao Qi who know Moshuang and have cooperated with her?" ”
Lin Zhaoyan was silent for a moment, probably dissipating his breath, and only said softly after half a sound: "Well, the result of the current analysis is this, as for who that person is, it is unknown whether it is Prince Xiao or Princess Xiao." ”
"Could it be Second Young Master Xiao?" Lin Zhaoyan asked again, after all, the real Lin Zhaoyan has been married to Xiao Wangfu for more than two years, and she is more familiar with the situation and connections of Xiao Wangfu than her.
"No, it won't." She said categorically: "Maybe you don't know the relationship between their brothers, I can only say that anyone can betray Aqi, only Ming'er won't." ”
"Oh." Lin Zhaoyan was also relieved, she didn't want to see any tragic scenes of brothers turning against each other.
"But Princess Xiao......" she sneered, "most likely." ”
Lin Zhaoyan knew that Xiao Qi was not liked by Princess Xiao, but he didn't know what was going on, and when he heard this, he couldn't wait to ask: "Is Xiao Qi not born to the princess?" How can a biological mother treat her child like this? ”
"I don't know if I am my own child, I only know that she has a vicious heart." Her voice sounded full of anger, almost gritting her teeth, "What she did to Aqi will never be forgiven, she is more than innocent of death." ”
Lin Zhaoyan was frightened by the coldness in her words, and couldn't help but shudder.
"You don't have to ask about specific things, anyway, you don't plan to be with Aqi, you just need to save your life, what are you doing with so many private things about Aqi? He's always been a man of great self-esteem, and he doesn't want you to tell him about his unbearable past. ”
Lin Zhaoyan suddenly listened to her angry remarks again, and shook his head helplessly, "I'm not with him, is there a contradiction with me caring about him and caring about him?" ”
She choked.
Lin Zhaoyan didn't want to argue with her anymore, so he took the initiative to change the topic and said: "Since you said that it was Mo Shuang, I would let the second prince secretly pay attention to her movements, and in short, I would not let her succeed." ”
"Yes." She didn't relent, since Lin Zhaoyan opened up with her, her obsession has diminished a lot, and she understands that no matter how much she loves, she shouldn't force this love on others.
However, she became so understanding, which made Lin Zhaoyan feel guilty.
For a moment, she wanted to give her body back.
