If you want to add sin, there is no excuse
Tang Yonghui 5 years 4 20.
Afternoon.
In the Palace of Ten Thousand Years.
Lotus pond side.
Because Li Zhi recently summoned the ministers to discuss the matter, Mei Niang was walking in the lotus pond in order to be clean and bright.
The entourage, only the youngest son Li Hong and Zhu Shier.
Li Hong is young, unwilling to leave his mother for too long, every few moments to throw into his mother's arms, because at this time Mei Niang is pregnant, this move really makes the servants tremble, and Mei Niang is pitiful, and does not want others to remove Li Hong, so everyone before and after has to use playthings to lure Li Hong away, so as not to hurt Mei Niang's body.
Li Hong is also smart, and he has seen the servants like this many times, and heard that his mother has something to do and should not be moved, so he became sensible, obediently walked to the side, lay on the blanket, and played with the two little eunuchs found by Ming and Ling.
Mei Niang watched her beloved son happy on one side, and she liked it in her heart, so she smiled and leaned on the couch.
After a while, she suddenly saw Qinghe hurrying closer, Mei Niang knew that something was wrong, so she looked at Minghe.
Minghe will know, abandon everyone, but carefully guard.
Sure enough, Qinghe came over and saluted and saw Mei Niang, so he said straightly:
"Niangniang, the lord has sent a message, saying that Niangniang doesn't need to rush back to the palace at this time."
Mei Niang lowered her eyes, and said leisurely after a while:
"But did those former ministers say something?"
"Yes. His Majesty took the matter that the queen's biological mother and King Han were secretly colluding with the ministers some time ago, and said that Niangniang's matter was probably related to the Liu family.
But none of the ministers was willing to give up.
There are even some people who don't distinguish between right and wrong, saying that Niangniang is just Zhaoyi, and going to lighten the queen's mother for Niangniang is quite inappropriate.
The Lord's anger is raging at this moment! ”
Mei Niang shook her head and said lightly:
"Jiro is like this, but he is not indifferent.
If Jiro didn't get angry first this time, then naturally there were officials from the non-Guanlong faction who came forward to participate in the queen.
Now that Jiro is angry, he will teach those people that the queen's fault is just a trivial matter.
After all, in their hearts, this palace is the most terrible woman in the back court. ”
Qinghe nodded:
"Isn't that what you say?
The Lord also regrets it at this moment, but there is no way, the words have been spoken, and something must always be done.
But because he didn't want to make a big deal about it, he didn't get the evidence of Liu's assassination of Niangniang......
At the moment, it is extremely unhappy! ”
Mei Niang smiled faintly and said:
"Jiro too......
When I'm really anxious.
I thought that with this child, if I didn't set the matter after the closure of the palace earlier, something big would happen......"
She subconsciously stroked the child in her belly, and said lightly after a while:
"Well, although it was an accident, he also came in the end.
For him, for Hong'er......
It's always a battle. ”
She lowered her eyes and thought carefully before she said leisurely:
"Qinghe, this palace remembers that in the Taiyuan Wang Clan's mansion, there are still a few people available to us, who have no direct relationship with Zhilang, yes or no?"
"Yes. Niangniang wants to borrow their hands to search for some incriminating evidence? ”
"If it's just a borrowed hand, then there's really no need to look for them, there are many people in the world who want to find the queen.
What the palace wants is to send her some things that are absolutely not allowed in the Tang Dynasty. ”
Qinghe blinked, and said in surprise:
"Mother is going to ...... But then, if those officials knew......"
"Whether they know it or not, they don't have the intention.
Because the queen is not the work of this palace, they still have to try to sprinkle dirty water on the head of this palace......
In that case, Bengong took the initiative to make a move as they wished.
Maybe this time......
On the contrary, they will feel that this matter is not the work of this palace. ”
Mei Niang smiled faintly, beckoned Qinghe, who was suddenly abrupt, to come forward and whisper a few words.
It's night.
Wannian Palace.
The Great Treasure Hall.
In the inner bed, Li Zhi looked at Mei Niang, who was sleeping peacefully, and sighed:
"She's already done it?"
"Yes."
Li Zhi listened to Minghe's calm and waveless voice, and raised his eyes to look at him:
"Don't understand, do you?
I don't understand why I want to force Mei Niang to this point? ”
Minghe was silent for a long time before he said lightly:
"Isn't it good that Niangniang is now protected by the Lord and accompanied by His Royal Highness the Acting King?
Isn't Niangniang really the glory and everything that Xitu's posterior brings......
What the mother wants is just to be able to say a word in a dignified manner, as the wife of the Lord. ”
Li Zhi lowered his eyes, and said lightly after a while:
"yes......
I know that what Mei Niang wants is just a title for my wife, which is why she is so persistent in the posterior.
She is obsessed with this position, because I am the emperor and the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
If you want to be my wife, then you can only be the last.
So for her, the word queen means that she is the wife of Li Zhi.
But Minghe, you should know that the meaning of these two words is far from that. ”
Li Zhi looked at him and said:
"You should know that the word queen is not only my wife, but also the mother of the prince and the mother of the world......
She needs to be by my side and do everything she needs to do with me.
This is for the fate of the latter, and there is no escape. ”
Minghe was silent, and said lightly for a long time:
"That's why the Lord forced the mother to come to this point step by step?"
"I don't want to force it, in fact, I have also thought that if I get another three or five years, or even six or seven years, just wait for Hong'er to grow up, and then persuade Mei Niang, it's okay.
But now, it's not ......"
Li Zhi's eyes softened, and he turned his head to look at Mei Niang's hand held tightly by himself, his eyes were on her face, and his lower abdomen lingered:
"At present, Mei Niang already has a second prince in her womb.
And according to Sun Daochang, it is very likely that this fetus will be a male ...... again
Minghe, do you know what that means? ”
Li Zhi turned his head to look at the thoughtful Minghe, and said softly:
"This means...... Mei Niang is now the most qualified woman in the entire Tang Dynasty court.
The concubine only has a vegetarian festival, and the queen only has Zhong'er as her heir......
But Mei Niang has two healthy princes by her side......
Do you think they will let Mei Niang go easily?
Do you think that now they are somewhat restrained because of Mei Niang's action to rectify King Han before, which is proof that they will no longer provoke Mei Niang? ”
Ming and silent.
Li Zhi sighed after a while:
"Minghe, even if they are willing to stop there, the family behind them will not allow it.
Because they are clan women, their rise and fall, their glory and disgrace are not for themselves, but more for the family behind them.
So even if they are willing to stop, the family behind them cannot.
And these clansmen naturally can't tolerate the existence of such a big threat as Mei Niang.
Mei Niang's only way is to attack it first. ”
Li Zhi said softly:
"Only in this way can we protect ourselves."
Minghe was silent, and said lightly for a long time:
"But it doesn't have to be like this, forcing the mother to do this......"
"I never wanted her to be touched by these filthy things......"
Li Zhi's gentle expression, looking at Ming He, revealed a little deep meaning for the first time:
"But I also know that the only way to keep her away from these things right now...... It is to keep her by her side, someone who can really be trusted like Ryan, who knows when and what to do.
Minghe, you are also wise, and you should understand what I mean. ”
Minghe's whole body stiffened, and he quickly relaxed, looked up at Li Zhi, and his gaze was firm:
"The Lord is clear, and he has not paid any attention to the deep meaning of the Lord......
And ask the Lord to condemn sins. ”
"What sin?
In Ryan's absence, you are the most reliable person around Mei Niang, and you have to take care of everything for her.
Some things ......"
Li Zhi lowered his eyelids and said softly:
"Dean will tell you what to do.
In fact, you don't have to be too restrained about many things around Mei Niang, understand? ”
Minghe nodded calmly:
"Minghe understands."
Li Zhi nodded and smiled approvingly:
"That's good.
Qinghe's temperament is too lively, and he is not very stable in many places, and he is not like Ryan, who followed me in his early years and followed Mei Niang all the way, so he knows something.
That's why I can't choose him.
On the contrary, it is you, after looking at it in the past few years, you have become more and more calm and profound, and you are extremely knowledgeable.
With you, you can always be no worse than Ryan. ”
Minghe didn't look up, and only said:
"Minghe is afraid, with Minghe's intelligence, he is still a little short of the master!"
Li Zhi smiled faintly, shook his head and said:
"You don't have to be too humble, I can still trust your ability.
What's more, your nature is pure and good, and you are very kind to Mei Niang, follow her, and you can learn something good. ”
"Yes."
Minghe replied again, and then said lightly:
"Lord, there is something unclear in Minghe, please make it clear to the Lord."
"Say it."
"Right now, the matter of Wang Xiao's second clan has been decided.
But a few days ago, Minghe listened to Niangniang's meaning that this Wang Xiao Ershi still wants to ask the Lord to protect his life, and he doesn't want to give him a bleak end.
I wonder what the Lord wants. ”
“…… After all, they have been husband and wife, as long as they are not too excessive, I don't want to embarrass them.
I have already made up my mind about this matter. ”
With a sigh of relief, Li Zhi got up, stood with his hands in his hands, and said leisurely:
"In my life, there is Mei Niang alone, which is enough.
Instead of spending his heart and soul in this back court, it is better to retreat from the back court, only Mei Niang and a few pairs of children will accompany me for a stable life......
In this way, I can really have some good time to truly govern the Tang Dynasty to be prosperous and healthy, and the people are calm and happy.
This is the real blessing of the emperor and the joy of the Tang Dynasty.
When my father was alive, he always made such wishes, but after all, it was difficult to be humane.
And now I'm ......
I really don't have to be confined to this way anymore, I can take this opportunity to take advantage of the wind and the wind! ”
When Minghe heard this, he was already stunned, and only after a while did he say lightly:
"Lord...... The lord wants to get rid of all the concubines in the back court, and leave only the mother alone?! ”
"Isn't it good?"
Li Zhi raised his eyebrows and turned his head, looking at it with a smile, and between his eyebrows, there was a look of satisfaction and pride:
"Since ancient times, how many kings have wanted to do things that they couldn't, and now I can do them, so why don't I do them?"
