After the victory of Hang Aishan, the affairs of the imperial court were busy, Li Jun had not come to Changle Palace for a long time, when he saw the Empress Dowager Wei, he found that the Empress Dowager Wei's temples already had gray hair, Li Jun said distressedly: "Queen Mother, you don't want to stay here every day in the future, you should go out for a walk if you have time, inactivity for a long time is not good for your health." ”

Empress Dowager Wei patted Li Jun's hand and said: "Emperor, don't worry about the queen mother, with your sister and younger brother by your side, the queen mother is not bored, the queen mother has always thought of your Aunt Liyang recently, that is also a poor person, she is not a lady, she has no children in her life, and in the end she ended up with such a stinky end for 10,000 years." ”

"Queen Mother, please rest assured, the sons will definitely put an end to this kind of tragedy in the future." Li Jun hurriedly comforted.

Empress Dowager Wei nodded and said: "The queen mother is still relieved, I came to the emperor today, it was also for a family matter, your cousin Wei Chaodong's wife Guan Shi, you know?" ”

"I haven't seen this cousin-in-law, but I heard the queen say that my cousin-in-law is not very good, did she do something to make you angry again?" Li Jun asked cautiously.

In fact, this is still Li Jun's mouth, this Guan family has not only offended some people, Guan is the daughter of the Marquis of Pingyang, relying on the power of her mother's family, and her husband's family is the Marquis of Wanhu, arrogant and domineering, not to mention the courtiers, even the red sleeves are not in their eyes, although the red sleeves are not the queen, but they are also the emperor's women, this dares to offend, you can imagine how domineering it is.

Especially after Mrs. Wei died, this Guan clan took over the stewardship of the entire Wei Mansion, which made it even more embarrassing.

Empress Dowager Wei sighed and said: "That's true, yesterday your cousin-in-law humiliated the daughter of Wang Ben, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, in public, and the girl jumped into the river when she went home, so the wife of Wang Ben's family cried to the queen mother, so the queen mother wants you to tell your cousin, divorce your wife, otherwise the entire Wei family will be destroyed in her hands." ”

Li Jun actually knew about this matter through Jinyiwei for a long time, and the reason why it hasn't happened until now is for the sake of Empress Dowager Wei's face, and since Empress Dowager Wei took the initiative to mention it today, Li Jun immediately responded: "Queen Mother, the ministers will try their best to persuade my cousin in this matter, but judging from my cousin's infatuated nature, I'm afraid it will be difficult, so don't have too much hope here." ”

"Okay, the emperor, the queen mother will listen to you." Empress Dowager Wei nodded in praise.

In fact, Li Jun likes this mode of getting along with the mother and son very much, the mother and son leave some room for each other, everyone thinks about each other, on the one hand, the mother and son are constantly affectionate, and if there is a conflict between the queen mother and the emperor, it is not a good thing for the entire court.

After Li Jun returned to Daming Palace, not long after he rested, Wang Ben, the victim of this incident, came, Wang Ben is an honest middle-aged man, and he has no background, he has come to today's position step by step, so Li Jun is actually quite sympathetic to Wang Ben.

When Wang Ben saw Li Jun, he immediately threw himself on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, please be the master of the ministers." ”

Li Jun hurriedly helped Wang Ben up and said, "Wang Qing, I have heard about you, please mourn." ”

"Please Your Majesty arrest the culprit and return my daughter's innocence." Wang Ben continued.

Li Jun sighed and said: "Wang Qing, I won't hide it from you, there is no law in our Tang Dynasty law to punish crimes for words, so the Guan family can only practice family law, not national law, please forgive Wang Qing." ”

"Ah, it's unfair." Hearing Li Jun's words, Wang Ben howled and cried.

Wang Ben gave Li Jun a headache from crying, so Li Jun slapped the table angrily and said, "Okay, don't howl, I have a solution, what do you think?" ”

"Your Majesty, please speak." Wang Ben stopped crying and immediately asked, Wang Ben can get into the position of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and he is not a stupid hat, so he naturally heard the impatience in Li Jun's tone.

Li Jun coughed and said: "It's your youngest daughter who jumped into the river this time, so let's do it, I heard that you don't have an eldest daughter, your eldest daughter is a famous talented girl in the capital, I have long admired it, arrange it, let her enter the palace." ”

Happiness came too suddenly, Wang Ben didn't react at once, and Wang Ben left the palace in a daze.

When he got home, Wang Ben's wife and children immediately greeted him, and Wang Ben sighed and said, "The rest of the people are scattered, Zhaojun and I will come to the study." ”

Wang Zhaojun is Wang Ben's eldest daughter, a famous talented woman in the capital, and the object of many sons' proposals, but because Wang Ben loves this daughter very much, and Wang Zhaojun's own vision is also very high, so he has not been engaged yet.

The father and daughter came to the study, and Wang Ben sighed and said, "Zhaojun, do you hate your sister's death?" ”

"My daughter can't wait to dismantle that slut." Wang Zhaojun gritted his teeth and said.

Wang Ben smiled bitterly: "Zhaojun, I hate my father, but unfortunately I can't help it, Your Majesty has made it clear that he favors the Wei family, and he is incompetent for his father, and he doesn't dare to fight if he wants to." ”

"What? As far as my daughter knows, isn't Your Majesty such an unreasonable person? Wang Zhaojun said in disbelief that in the hearts of today's generation of young people, Li Jun, the young son of heaven, is an idol in everyone's hearts, and Wang Zhaojun is no exception.

Wang Ben patted his daughter on the shoulder and said: "Silly boy, it is true that Your Majesty is a holy monarch, but Your Majesty is also a human being, people have seven emotions and six desires, Your Majesty is no exception, Your Majesty will not go against the Wei family for our Wang family, our Wang family is not so heavy, you understand this time, right?" ”

Wang Ben's words are hard to hear, but they are a naked reality, Wang Zhaojun, a little girl who has not yet experienced human affection, suddenly feels unacceptable.

Although Wang Ben couldn't bear to see his daughter's appearance, for the sake of the family, Wang Ben could only continue: "Daughter, although Your Majesty does not want to hold the Wei family responsible, he has not forgotten our Wang family, so His Majesty put forward a condition that his father could not refuse, and his father agreed. ”

"On what terms?" Wang Zhaojun suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

Wang Ben looked at Wang Zhaojun and said word by word: "Zhaojun, Your Majesty wants you to enter the palace." ”

"What? This is impossible, the daughter once said that the daughter would never serve a husband with another woman, and if that were the case, the daughter would rather die. Wang Zhaojun exclaimed.

Wang Ben slapped the table heavily and said, "Confused, this is His Majesty's personal edict, can you refuse?" Besides, my father has promised His Majesty, if you don't agree at this time, then the whole family of my Wang family will be over, think about your mother, and then think about your brother who is just ten years old, how can you bear it? ”

Wang Ben's words pierced Wang Zhaojun's heart like a knife, his sister just committed suicide by jumping into the river, his father went to find justice, and in the end justice was not found, but he also put himself in, what is this?

In the end, in desperation, Wang Zhaojun agreed.

Wang Zhaojun wiped away his tears, left the study, and as soon as he walked to the door, he heard his father's cold voice: "Zhaojun, after entering the palace, serve Your Majesty well, and you must not hold grudges." ”

Wang Zhaojun smiled bitterly, yes, she is about to become the emperor's woman, and she is not even qualified to hate.
