Zuo Qiu Xuhe wiped his tears and said, "Ajing, don't cry, it won't look good if you cry again!" ”

After Ye Xi cried enough, he looked at him, "Really don't force me?" ”

Zuo Qiu Xuhe nodded, "Yes, I don't force you, let you choose." ”

Rongjiang Imperial Palace, Changfu Palace. When the Queen Mother heard the news, she immediately found the emperor.

She commanded in a cold voice, "Father-in-law Yan, close the door, you wait five feet back!" ”

The queen mother entered the imperial study and questioned his son, and it was the first time she was angry with him, "Your Majesty, I heard that Emperor Xidi wrote a marriage proposal to marry the prime minister's sister, but the emperor actually rejected it, is this true?" ”

Her angry expression, "Did you know that doing this will plunge the two countries into war." Our mother and son are already walking on thin ice, there are Xidi Kingdom and Cheng Kingdom eyeing each other, and there are Ming Kings and Prime Ministers who are ambitious, if you offend the other two countries at this juncture, aren't you afraid that your Sixth Emperor Uncle will take the opportunity to rebel? ”

Zhongli looked at his queen mother, his sad expression did not decrease in the slightest, "Queen mother, my heart hurts so much!" Mother, am I dying! He clutched his heart and cried to her mother.

The Queen Mother originally had an angry face, and when she saw him in such pain, she asked distressedly, "Jing'er, what's wrong?" Where do you hurt? ”

She was so anxious that she shouted, "Quick, pass on the Imperial Doctor!" Doctor! She held on to her son, her face full of concern.

Gonggong Yan, who was standing far away, heard the shouting and immediately ran in and asked anxiously, "Queen Mother, what's the matter?" What happened to the emperor? ”

The Queen Mother was anxious, "Imperial Doctor, call Imperial Doctor!" ”

Gonggong Yan shouted eagerly, Imperial Doctor, please Imperial Doctor......

So a little eunuch ran to ask for a doctor.

The Empress Dowager asked anxiously, "Emperor, what's wrong with you?" Don't scare the queen mother, the emperor, the emperor! ”

The emperor grabbed his chest and beat him hard, "Queen Mother, my chest hurts so much, I'm so suffocated, am I not going to do it anymore!" He asked sadly.

The Empress Dowager reprimanded, "Jing'er, don't talk nonsense, you will be fine, you are the emperor of Rongjiang Kingdom, and you will definitely live a long life!" ”

Soon after, the imperial doctor came, gave him a pulse, and after taking the pulse, he replied respectfully, "Back to the queen mother, the emperor's heart hurts, it is caused by depression in the heart, sadness, and the bell must be tied to the bell!" ”

When the Queen Mother heard this, she guessed that it must be related to the prime minister's sister.

Her burning eyes stared at those palace maids and eunuchs, "Say, what happened?" Otherwise, the mourning family will let your heads fall to the ground! ”

The first time Gonggong Yan saw the Queen Mother making such a big fire, they were so frightened that they knelt down and kowtowed again and again, the slave maid (slave) was wronged, and asked the Queen Mother to investigate!

Gonggong Yan knelt there and replied fearfully, "Back to the Empress Dowager, this morning Emperor Xidi sent a letter of marriage invitation, and when the emperor saw it, he sent a big fire."

The emperor went to invite Miss Ye Xi into the palace and asked her if she would like to marry Emperor Xidi, and Miss Ye Xi said no.

In this way, the emperor expressed his heart to Miss Ye Xi, and after being rejected by Miss Ye Xi, the emperor felt a pain in his heart! ”

The little emperor took the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor to calm the mind and slowly fell asleep.

The queen mother looked at her son and heard his whisper, Xi'er, don't go! Xi'er, Xi'er......

The queen mother was furious, and she felt pity and pity in her heart, Jing'er, why are you so stupid? Fall in love with a woman you shouldn't love!

Zhong Licong here heard the news of his secret agent's return, and hooked his lips and thought to himself, sure enough!

He wondered how the woman should choose, whether to choose supreme power or to feel sorry for her son.

He guessed, how would Ye Xi choose? I guess she can't choose! Because no matter who it was, she wouldn't be willing.

Zhong Licong smiled funnily, and said to the personal guard behind him, Wang Kang, "Wang Kang, tell me, how will she choose that woman?" ”

Wang Kang shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

The Queen Mother's mind has always been difficult to guess, she can become the Queen Mother, because of her former viciousness, so he really can't guess.

Looking at her son's muttering in his dream, she felt distressed, but she still couldn't let him marry the prime minister's sister, and even more so she couldn't even if she was implicated in the country of Xidi. Emperor, behind the scenes, it's all for your good, you must forgive the queen mother.

The queen mother personally drafted a phoenix edict, and while the little emperor was unconscious, she issued an order to give marriage, which was so fast that she cut through the chaos.

When Ye Xi returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion from the post house, he saw the eunuchs waiting for the decree.

Ye Xi looked at his brother and saw that his face was not good, "Little sister, the Queen Mother Yizhi, will make you the princess of Lingping, let you be married, and marry to Xidi Kingdom one day!" ”

After hearing this, she was shocked, couldn't she escape the life of marrying far away? Could it be that she couldn't choose her own fate? She is not reconciled!

At the same moment, Shen Yunche received a report from the secret agent, and when he heard the news that Ye Xi was going to marry Xidiguo, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and wanted to enter the palace to ask for a decree to let her marry him, although Shen Yunze was anxious, he was calmer than him and stopped him, "Fifth brother, calm down, if you go to ask for a decree now, it is likely that the identity of the fifth brother and sister will be exposed, do you want him to be killed?" ”

The queen mother of Rongjiang is not a fool, the emperor of Xidi State has asked for marriage, and now the fifth brother has also taken the liberty of asking for marriage, she must be very suspicious, and when she finds out her true identity, she and his brother may be killed.

Ye Yi looked at her sister's dejected appearance, extremely worried, "Sister, don't worry, even if your brother pays any price, he will prevent you from marrying someone you don't like!" As he spoke, he got up and prepared to enter the palace to find the Queen Mother to refute Yi's decree.

Ye Xi sat on a chair in the lobby and stopped him, "Brother, what are you going to say to the Queen Mother?" Ask her to take back her life, or use a sword to force her to take back her life! Do you think she'll agree? Since she disregarded the emperor's wishes and made a decree so quickly, it shows that she has already decided that she will not take back the decree! Besides, even if I want to go, I'll go! ”

Ye Xi thought to himself, now the only person who can make the Queen Mother change her mind and take back Yi's will is Zhong Licong, but with his person, he will never help me easily.

Ye Xi said to his eldest brother, "Brother, now the only person who can make the Queen Mother take back her life is His Royal Highness the King of Ming, and I will go to him now." ”

Ye Yi grabbed her, "Sister, King Ming is a man and takes his own interests as the greatest, he won't help you easily, let my brother go, even if my brother uses it to get it, he will let the queen mother take back his life." ”

Ye Xi looked at his brother, and guessed in her heart that if her brother went, Zhong Licong would just use this to blackmail him and make her brother become his person, and then her brother would be controlled by others, and she didn't want her brother to become a person who was oppressed everywhere because of herself.

Now that he and King Ming are about the same power in the court, if he goes to him, she is sure that he will never give up this opportunity and let his brother become his subordinate.

Ye Xi thought, my brother went to him, it was nothing more than proposing that the two of them cooperate, but with my understanding of Zhong Licong, he would never just cooperate with his brother, and wanted to completely take his brother into possession, so that no one in the court would be his opponent.

But if you go to him yourself, what leverage do you use to negotiate with him?

Ye Xi thought about it again and again, but she didn't expect it, she looked at her brother, "Brother, don't worry, I know, if he doesn't help, then forget it, I'd rather marry someone else than I want you to be threatened."

If you go, he will definitely use this to blackmail you, and I don't want to make my brother become controlled by others! Ye Yi didn't expect her sister to know so well that she couldn't have both, and his face was full of love and pity.

He gently stroked her cheek and said distressedly, "Sister, it's all my brother who is useless, and he can't protect you!" ”

Ye Xi hugged him, "No, it's not my brother's fault, if you want to blame it, blame heaven for making people!" ”

Zhong Licong sat in his study, holding a book in his hand, the kind of book rolled in bamboo.

I saw him holding it in his hand, and thought to himself, Ye Xi should come to the mansion to find himself at this time, and he was really curious about what kind of bargaining chips she was holding to negotiate with him. Zhong Licong thought expectantly.

When Ye Xi was about to arrive at King Ming's mansion in the carriage, she suddenly thought, no, at this time, King Ming may be able to solve it by looking for the Queen Mother, but he doesn't necessarily have to find King Ming to solve this matter, she just needs to let Zuoqiu Xuhe take back the letter of marriage, and it will all be solved. However, Zuo Qiu Xuhe will easily withdraw the letter of marriage, after all, it will be detrimental to his holy prestige. Anyway, go give it a try!

Sure enough, she was too anxious, looking at this stubble, she opened the curtain of the car, and instructed Yan Limei, who was driving, "Ah Mei, go to the post house and find Zuoqiu Xuhe!" ”

Yan Limei didn't understand, didn't Miss want to find His Royal Highness King Ming? Why do you want to go to Emperor Xidi again?

Ye Xi looked at her puzzled look and explained, "This matter can indeed be solved by King Ming, but you can also find Emperor Xidi, as long as he takes back the letter of marriage, all this will be solved!" ”

Yan Limei turned his horse's head, "But, miss, will His Majesty the Emperor Xidi agree?" He wrote a letter of marriage, and now he has taken it back, isn't it a joke to fight the country, this matter can be big or small, if the two countries fall into war because of this, the young lady will be pointed at and scolded. ”

Shen Yunche, who lived in the post house, didn't care about everything, entered the palace, and was ready to intervene, he must not watch Jing'er marry someone else.

However, in order to hide his eyes, he revealed his other identity, that is, the son of Yunqin. He told a big lie, saying that he met Ye Xi at that time in Chengguo, and was moved by her talent and intelligence, and since then he has been in love with her and vowed to marry her. However, in the end, he found out that Ye Xi was the sister of the prime minister of Rongjiang State, so he specially went to Rongjiang State to ask for marriage this time.

This lie, except for Ye Xi's source is true, the others are all made up by him, but his sincerity to Jing'er is the truth.

The reason why he was desperate to marry her back then was that he was really amazed by her medical skills and attracted by her smile, and slowly fell in love with her.

When his marriage proposal appeared in the imperial study, Yan's father-in-law handed over the marriage proposal to the queen mother.

After the Queen Mother saw it, she did not doubt Ye Xi's true identity, after all, she was indeed brought back from Chengguo by the prime minister. But she is really embarrassed, both countries ask to marry the prime minister's sister, what should she do in order not to offend the two countries.

When Ye Xi arrived at the post house, he went in directly, and no one stopped him this time, after all, Emperor Xidi's marriage proposal had already caused a storm in the city.

King Ming's secret guard replied, "Back to Your Highness, Miss Ye Xi was already about to arrive at the gate of the mansion, but what did she suddenly think?" turned back, went to the post house, and found Emperor Xidi, wanting him to take back the marriage proposal directly. ”

Zhong Licong smiled, it was a little interesting, it was indeed much better to find Emperor Xidi to solve this matter directly than to find himself, and he was very smart. But! Will Zuo Qiu Xuhe easily agree to this? Will he agree to this kind of affair that undermines the exchanges between the two countries and undermines his prestige?
