Section 16 The palace locks the bright moon

"In the world, from the emperor to the common people, no one can act arbitrarily, if there are no rules, how can you become a square circle! You are so stupid because your father has raised you for so many years! Yao Jin, since she has become the princess of the Li Dynasty, the widow has given her the glorious face of the princess, and she should also use her value to repay the widow and the entire Li Dynasty, just like now that she is the lord of the small southern country, she naturally must bear the responsibility of the lord of a country! Don't say that you come to ask for a widow, even if you ask for the Jade Emperor, no one can give Yao Jin the freedom he wants. ”

"But as long as Your Majesty is willing to Xiao Nanguoβ€”"

"There are many people in this world besides widows, and they are all looking at Xiao Nanguo!" Emperor Li interrupted Lin Yuebai impatiently, "Even if you are not a widow, Yao Jin can't get rid of this identity, even if she is not the lord of Xiao Nanguo, there are other identities waiting for her, she walked out of the palace of the Li Dynasty, she is a widow's princess, this is destined for her to live in this golden shackle for the rest of her life! If you become a princess or even a queen in the future, you will be the same in this life! But- Now it seems that you are not suitable to be this princess at all, the prince is extremely smart, how could he choose such an ignorant woman as you!"

......

Lin Yuebai looked at Li Huang speechlessly, she suddenly felt that she was indeed too stupid just now, so stupid that she thought that this person still had a 1 in 10,000 chance that she would miss Zeng and Yao Jin's love in modern times, so stupid that she thought that as Yao Jin's friend, she could still beg for her, begging him to get rid of the confinement of Yao Jin's identity as a princess, but in the end she was too naΓ―ve - Lin Yuebai sighed silently in her heart, she finally knew that she had entered this Zichen Palace, and she might not be able to go out again in this life, and she had just tried her best to say a word for her best friend, and now she has nothing to ask for. Finally, Lin Yuebai calmly lowered her head and knocked three times deeply: "The courtiers are just a piece of duckweed drifting with the waves, at this moment, the courtiers have no desires, no desires and no words to say, whether they are alive or dead, sinking or floating, whether they are princesses or not, or even whether they can live or not, it is not up to the courtiers to decide, it is all up to the heavens." ”

"Okay, you're sensible. The widow will give you a fulfillment. ”

Yongyang Palace.

Li Yao sat on the queen's right, and in front of him were all the things he loved to eat, but he seemed to be in a trance, holding a pair of ivory gold chopsticks, but his eyes were staring straight at the golden bowl with the mandarin duck lotus petal pattern on the table.

"Prince, what's the matter?" the queen saw that he was strange, and asked, "Is the dish unappetizing?"

Saying that, the queen asked her aunt to pass on the imperial doctor, Li Yao came back to his senses in a daze, got up and said, "Erchen just lost his mind for a while." ”

"The prince is capable, and His Majesty has been assigned a lot of errands recently, so he must be tired. Prince, you should also pay attention to your body," the queen paused for a moment, looked at the eldest aunt beside her, and smiled: "There is a good thing, His Majesty was not allowed to say it, but this palace is still partial to the prince in his private heart, I can't help it, I still want to say it!"

Li Yao reluctantly showed a smile: "I don't know what a good thing it is, don't hide it from your son." ”

The queen smiled two crow's feet at the corners of her eyes: "Today, Your Majesty's Xuanlin family girl has entered the palace, prince, are you happy?"

Li Yao was suddenly shocked: He didn't know that the emperor had joined the eight characters and the Xuanren had entered the Zichen Palace, why did Li Nan and the queen know here? !

He settled down, also smiled, and replied: "Erchen is just because he is happy, so he lost his temper just now, and I ask the queen mother to forgive me." ”

The queen laughed rarely: "No wonder Your Majesty sent Father-in-law Nan to talk about this this morning, and he also instructed His Highness to hide it from His Highness for a while, thinking that he would also wait to see His Highness's gaffe." ”

"The queen mother, don't make fun of His Royal Highness the Prince, when His Majesty's will comes down, you will also be busy arranging the prince's wedding here, and the Ministry of Rites and all the bureaus in the palace are busy, and when the time comes, there will be no time to laugh. The eldest aunt next to her pursed her lips and smiled, took a few steps towards Li Yao, bowed down and said, "Slave maid first wish His Highness a hundred years of good harmony!

Li Yao smiled with a spring breeze, took a handful of gold beads from his arms, and put them all in the eldest aunt's hand: "Then the palace will reward the eldest aunt for the future princess, and when the future princess enters the palace, I will ask my aunt for more guidance." ”

"At this time, the prince began to feel sorry for the future princess and saved money for his own lady. The eldest aunt thanked the reward with a smile and returned to the queen. The queen continued: "Prince, this time Your Majesty attaches great importance to your marriage, not only will you give the Gilin clan a gilded platform immediately, but Your Majesty has also personally selected Aunt Xi, so that they can teach the etiquette in the palace of the Lin clan in the gilded platform, and she can also study without being disturbed." There is no precedent for such an honor in the past, Your Majesty is also considering you for the crown prince, the Lin family's background is not very noble, this is a change of law to raise her identity - prince, Your Majesty's heart is really enough. ”

Soon, the whole palace will know his character as the emperor who loves the prince, but no one knows his true purpose - Li Yao's smile faded a little, but he was still happy, he walked up to the queen and saluted respectfully: "The sons are grateful to the father and the queen mother for their sympathy and consideration for the sons and daughters, and the sons and daughters are really unable to repay them, only by doing their filial piety every day can they repay in case of emergency!"

"What is the prince doing with such a big gift, eat and eat, get up quickly!"

"Erchen has already eaten. Remembering that when I came today, I should have gone to the Zichen Hall to greet my father first, but at that time, the Lin family was in the palace and the sons did not go in, so I wanted to go to my father to say goodbye to my father at this time, I wonder if the queen mother will go with me?"

The queen put down the tea in her hand, nodded and said, "Yes, go and ask your father to say goodbye, the queen mother is going to copy the scriptures today, so I won't go with you." ”

"Yes, the retainers retired. The queen mother should not work too hard to copy the scriptures today, carefully hurt her eyes, and rest early. ”

"Good boy, the queen mother knows, go quickly. ”

With a faint smile, the queen watched Li Yao walk out of the palace gate, and his shadow slowly melted into the night and disappeared. She suddenly felt that someone was muffled and punched in her heart, and her voice was so faint that it seemed to come from the ground: "You say, if the Zheng'er of this palace is still there, his big wedding, will Your Majesty attach so much importance to it......"

Li Yao didn't stay for a moment after leaving Yongyang Palace, and immediately left the palace and returned to the house to write a secret letter to Zha Jiang, saying: "You go in person, hand it over to Mo Dongling as quickly as possible, and tell him that it is right now!"

"Yes!" Zha Jiang put away the secret letter, and suddenly hesitated: "If Mo Dongling refuses, will his subordinates forcibly bring him - or?"

"He won't refuse. Li Yao looked at the flickering candle flame and said in a deep voice: "Everything he cares about, everything in the Mo family, has been firmly tied to the hands of this palace by his daughter's own hands, whether he is willing or not, he has to be willing." ”

"Yes, the subordinates will leave immediately. ”

Li Yao's gaze was a little solemn, he looked at the heavy twilight outside the window, he suddenly didn't know which direction the gilt platform was, and he didn't know if his bright moon was calm and serene on that high gilt platform?
