Chapter 47: The Sacred Order to Enter the Palace

Xiangguo Mansion.

Too many things have happened recently, and the fact that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was suspected by the king in the middle of the court has long been known to Lord Xiangguo.

Originally, the crown prince made meritorious contributions when he was envoy to Zhaoguo, which should be a good thing for His Royal Highness the Prince, but now that the court situation is turbulent, even His Royal Highness the Prince is suspected by the king, and there is nothing in this world that is eternal.

So Lord Xiangguo began to worry, he had long heard that General Yan arranged a woman next to the king, but the harem is so big, so far I don't know who this woman is? As he gets older, Sangkook-sama begins to worry about whether he will be able to gain a foothold in the court.

In the past, I thought that if my position in the court was to be stable, I had to rely on the power of His Royal Highness the Prince, after all, the prince, like himself, regarded General Yan's party as a hostile camp.

But now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is suspected by the king, it is still difficult to say what will happen in the future, rather than pinning his fate on others, it is better to take the initiative to attack, and the fate of his family must be in the hands of his own people.

The only way is to let Wanru enter the palace, if Wanru can get the favor of the king when she enters the palace, then the status of the natural Xiangguo Mansion is not something that anyone can shake casually.

Just by doing this, it will be difficult to see Wanru in the future, after all, once you enter the palace, this deep palace wall will separate your relatives and everything.

In order to allow Wanru to enter the palace smoothly, some time ago, when the king went to pray for blessings, Lord Xiangguo also accompanied him and brought Wanru with him. Now it seems that Beigong Xiangguo is a scheming person who has been planning all this for a long time.

And since the return of that prayer, the civil war has also subsided, and the Wenyuan of Zhaoguo has been successfully obtained. Lord Xiangguo bought off the people around the king and asked him to say to the king that Miss Wanru is a blessed person, and the last time they participated in the prayer together, they could make the country and the people safe.

The king didn't have such a mind, but the internal officials around him said so, and Miss Wanru was already outstanding in appearance and gentle in personality, so she was indeed a good candidate. So in this draft, Miss Wanru was selected by the king.

I just didn't expect this holy decree to come down so soon, it would have been a good day, Wanru had just passed her eighteenth birthday, and she was intoxicated by this cheerful laughter.

Suddenly, a holy decree was issued, and Lord Xiangguo stepped forward to receive the order, and there were so many people kneeling in the room, and when the herald left, Wanru's feet seemed to be unable to move, and she couldn't stand up, and for her, it was a very painful thing to enter the palace.

Perhaps for many people, it is a supreme honor to be able to enter the palace to serve the king, but Wanru is not such a person. For her, the glory, wealth, and noble status are all fleeting for her.

But all this can't be changed, the holy order has come down, if you resist, then the Beigong family will suffer a catastrophe.

This is a reality that she must accept, and it is a fate that she cannot break free. I knew that fate was like this, so why let her meet that person? Meet the person who makes your heart flutter.

Maybe he never knew that there was a person who remembered what he said and what he wrote a long time ago. For him, Wanru was able to read so many books that women didn't need to read.

It was late at night, Wanru was half-lying in bed, unable to sleep for a long time. In another month, she will enter the palace, and in a month, she will be the person next to the king.

Even if she didn't want to, she couldn't change all this, so she sat on the bed and cried, she didn't know how long she cried, she just felt that there was nothing worse in this world than entering the palace.

Wanru's heart disease became serious, so serious that she had typhoid fever, and she couldn't afford to get sick, and the people of Xiangguo were about to die, and it was useless to find the best doctor in Fancheng to see her.

Zimo went in to see Wanru, although Zimo and Wanru are not from the same mother, but their brother and sister relationship is very good.

Zimo entered Wanru's dormitory, and when she saw her, Zimo was shocked, she used to be beautiful, but now she is haggard to such a point.

Wanru's eyes didn't seem to have any spirit, but a look of death, and there was a bleak sadness under her pale face. Zimo read a message from her face, that is, she didn't want to enter the palace!

Wanru has listened to her father and brother since she was a child, and Wanru has never dared to refuse their requests, only absolute obedience to orders.

Therefore, this time when she entered the palace, it was obvious that Wanru didn't want to enter the palace, but she couldn't disobey the holy order, so she could only hold it in her heart and bear it silently alone.

Zimo buried Wanru's head in her chest, wanting to give her a support, hoping that this would make her feel that her family loved her.

At this time, Wanru's tears rolled down like a spring, and she cried very sadly and painfully.

"I'll figure it out." Zimo's voice was very small, but Wanru could hear it clearly.

Wanru raised her head, she looked at her brother with a questioning look, she didn't know what her brother meant by this, whether she wanted to find a doctor for her treatment, or whether her brother wanted to find a way to keep herself from entering the palace.

In the house, the eldest brother has always been on the same side as his father, and every decision of his father, the eldest brother will support and obey.

And the second brother is different, he didn't like the open and secret battles in the court since he was sensible, these struggles are all for power, power will corrode people's minds, make people greedy and ruthless, but if people in high positions don't have power, then the end is also very sad.

Wanru knew very well that the mission she was shouldering, she had always felt that as long as she thought about this family more, she would forget that person, but now she couldn't do it.

In this case, on the one hand, I don't want my father and brother to be embarrassed, and secondly, I don't want to go against my heart, so there is only one way to go, and only when I die can I be truly liberated.

But in doing so, the most unbearable thing is my father, who has loved her since she was a child, and she can't repay it, but at this point, nothing can be chosen by herself.
