Li Ye's words undoubtedly gave the sixth prince the final blow, so that the right Xiangguo could no longer defend him, after all, he swore to make such a bet at the beginning.

At that time, Li Ye repeatedly emphasized that there was no need for this, but in order to suppress Li Ye in the future, the sixth prince had to let everyone testify, but now he was slapped in the face, and he didn't want to abide by the agreement at that time, so he would naturally be laughed at.

The emperor couldn't stand it anymore, and scolded sternly: "The sixth emperor is still hesitating about something, this is a bet you had to make at the beginning, this is the measure that a man should measure if he is willing to gamble and lose, can't you even do this." ”

The sixth prince was so angry that he gritted his teeth, he clenched his fists, if he said that he couldn't do it, then the emperor and even the ministers of the court would only despise and laugh at him.

If it is done, what face will there be to meet people in the future, forcing him into this dilemma for a while, so that he has never felt such an embarrassment, and it is a feeling that makes his life worse than death.

The emperor is already angry, he has no way to delay it any longer, he can only swallow his anger and solve it first, he also understands that today's matter will inevitably become a joke of the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"Erchen is willing to gamble and lose, and he is willing to kowtow to the prince and admit his mistakes."

In fact, as long as he is frank and willing to gamble and lose, even if he really kowtows because he loses, he will not be laughed at, and the world laughs at him only because he can't afford to lose.

The sixth prince only felt as if two thousand golden balls were tied to his feet, which made him walk to Li Ye's side with great difficulty, "Shizi, you successfully solved the case this time, congratulations to you, this prince dares to act, this will kowtow to you to make amends." ”

Although he was very unhappy in his heart, the Sixth Prince had to do the same, but even if he said it, his knees didn't seem to be able to bend to Li Ye.

The emperor spoke: "The six emperors, you must understand that every word you say in the court is a corresponding price, and I hope you will take this as a warning, act cautiously in the future, and don't make it again, all officials close their eyes and let the six princes bear their own mistakes." ”

The emperor is also maintaining his last dignity for him, at least not to let these officials see his embarrassed appearance.

I thought that the emperor was interceding for himself at first, but when I thought that I didn't care about the pain in my heart at all, the blood of the six princes was rioting, looking at Li Ye's appearance, he couldn't wait to rush forward and fight with him.

However, he had to kowtow to him as a minister, which was really hateful, and he pinched his thigh so hard that he bent his knees, and if he couldn't pass this pass, he would never be able to raise his head in front of the emperor in the future.

However, just as his knees were bent, a woman's voice suddenly came from outside the hall: "Please slow! ”

This voice shocked the six princes and Li Ye at the same time, it was the six imperial concubines wearing court clothes who came respectfully, these six imperial concubines are different from other palace maidens, she is the only woman with an official position in the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Because she has been doing good deeds and building houses for many refugees outside the palace, and can give advice on some matters related to disaster relief, the emperor appreciated her and gave her an official position, but there is no need to follow these officials to the court, and then summon her when needed.

The emperor has always appreciated her very much, and he has not been dissatisfied with her arrival, and after she has saluted, he asked: "The sixth imperial concubine is not in the Chaoming Palace, what are you doing here?" ”

"Back to the emperor, I am willing to do it for the sixth prince and the prince to make a bet."

This remark surprised the officials of the main hall even more, and made the face of the sixth prince even more unbearable, and he would only blame this woman for being troublesome, and she ran to embarrass herself.

However, Li Ye was moved, and at the same time embarrassed, how could he let the Sixth Imperial Concubine replace this villain to kowtow to himself to make amends.

The daughter of Right Xiangguo, who was originally proud, was reluctant to marry such a waste six princes, and scolded in his heart: "Lian'er, what are you doing in this court, don't you step back quickly." ”

The emperor didn't stop it, but just sighed: "It's really a blessing for the Sixth Emperor to be able to marry a good imperial concubine like you." ”

The six imperial concubines were generous and decent, came to Li Ye's side with a smile, and saluted slightly: "Husband and wife are one, and the man has gold under his knees, I believe that the bet between the six princes and you must have been a whim, although he is also willing to gamble and lose, but for his wife's reluctance, he is willing to be punished for him." ”

And what made Li Ye feel sad was that he couldn't see a trace of emotion on the faces of the six princes, but was angry, if this matter continued to make trouble, only the six princesses would be embarrassed in the end.

Li Ye was forced to be helpless, it was impossible for the life-saving benefactor to kneel, and he knew that the appearance of the six imperial concubines was not to embarrass himself, but to compromise for the sake of the uncompetitive six princes.

"The six imperial concubines are well aware of the righteousness, and they are admired, and I will not pursue this matter anymore, and ask the six imperial concubines to go back to the palace to rest first."

The sixth imperial concubine was sincere, not to ask him to give up, and looked at Li Ye with some guilt: "The prince doesn't have to be embarrassed. ”

Li Ye returned a salute and bowed to the emperor again: "Your Majesty, Weichen will no longer pursue it, and I believe that the six princes already know this intention, and I am not trying to embarrass me." ”

The emperor Long Yan Dayue: "Originally, it was a family, and this dispute was an ordinary thing, which made Zhong Aiqing laugh, and I don't want to hear the discussion outside, so I should be cautious in our words and deeds." ”

The court knelt down together: "Weichen must abide by the holy will and dare not say more." ”

The emperor was also quite satisfied with this, and after retiring from the dynasty, he left Li Ye alone in the imperial study, and the six princes led the six imperial concubines all the way back to the Chaoming Palace without a word.

The six imperial concubines acted as if nothing had happened, and said with a smile: "The concubines have prepared breakfast for the six princes, all of which you like to eat." ”

The sixth prince suddenly grabbed her hand, his face full of anger: "Why did you come just now? Do you want everyone to see my majestic Six Princes of the Great Zhou Kingdom, and do you need a woman to help me solve my difficulties? ”

The Sixth Imperial Concubine hurriedly shook her head, and the hand pinched by him was also painful, so she frowned, and explained: "I just can't bear to see the Sixth Emperor wronged you, so I am willing to bear all this on your behalf." ”

"Do you think that if you had endured all this, I would not have been humiliated? Won't I have to be wronged again? Now that you have appeared, all the officials know that I relied on you to solve this trouble, and why did Li Ye let you go, I didn't give you and your father's face above the court, but in the end I gave you face. ”

The sixth prince's mood at the moment was a little frustrated and complicated, and his heart was even more violent, as long as he thought of the humiliation he received today, he wanted to solve all the people who knew about it.

The most hateful thing is that these six imperial concubines still came to help him on their own, but they didn't know that it made him even more embarrassed.
