Wang De still said quietly:

"The Lord's edict is for Xu Chongrong to move to the Chongsheng Palace where the concubines live. As for the martial artists...... According to the law system of the Tang Dynasty, he entered the Ganye Temple to practice. ”

Mei Niang only felt that her chest was tight, and she said softly after a long time:

"With me...... Entering the Ganye Temple? ”

"Exactly."

Wang De said softly:

"The Lord is merciful, and he has long intended to abolish the system of living burial. Therefore, there were last words left, and after the Taoist master entered the mausoleum, he should abolish the Zhaoling Palace. A group of palace concubines. If you are fortunate enough to have a seal, you will enter the Holy Palace. Those who are not fortunate and unsealed......

All enter the Ganye Temple. ”

Mei Niang only felt that her eyes were dark, and she almost couldn't stand.

But she is no longer the Wu Meiniang of the past, and this result is also what she expected-even much better than she expected.

So, silently, she swallowed the pain and said softly:

"Mei Niang knows......

Thank you to the princess. ”

Wang De looked at her, and then at Xu Hui, who was also worried, and sighed softly after a long time:

"Martial arts, don't complain about the Lord. In this arrangement, the Lord also tried his best......

If it weren't for your sake, why would he bother to abolish the system of living burial? ”

Mei Niang nodded silently, with tears in her eyes, and said softly after a long time:

"There is one more thing, please make sure it is fulfilled."

Seeing her like this, Wang De couldn't bear it and nodded silently.

Mei Niang said softly:

"Father-in-law, Hui'er is innocent. The place in the Chongsheng Palace is like a cold palace...... I also asked my father-in-law to intercede with the new master on behalf of Mei Niang after Mei Niang left, and Bao De Hui'er lived in this Tai Chi Palace......

That is, they shall no longer live in this Yanjia Temple......

Let her have a place for her......"

When Xu Hui heard this, she burst into tears, whimpered, and wanted to speak, but was stopped by Mei Niang.

Mei Niang looked at Wang De, stretched out her sleeves and bowed, and begged:

"Please also ask my father-in-law to fulfill it."

Seeing this, Wang De hurriedly stretched out his hand to help her up, and sighed:

"The old slave has followed the ancestors of the two dynasties, and I have never seen such a ...... Martial arts people rest assured. The old slave should do his best. ”

Mei Niang nodded, and said calmly:

"Then thank you father-in-law, Mei Niang still has to make some preparations, so I won't send it."

Wang De nodded silently, turned around, wanted to leave the palace, thought about it for a while, and seemed to want to say something to Mei Niang, but after all, he sighed and turned to leave.

Mei Niang watched him leave, turned around silently, took a deep breath, and looked at Xu Huidao, who was already in tears:

"Tonight, drink with me! Later...... I'm afraid I won't have such an opportunity again. ”

……

A moment later.

Yanjia Palace**.

drove Ruian and the others to sleep, only Mei Niang and Xu Hui sat in the court, and drank under the moonlight.

Xu Hui looked at Mei Niang, sad in her heart, but still smiled and persuaded to drink.

After three rounds of drinking, Xu Hui suddenly remembered something and laughed at her lightly:

"You...... What do you really think of Your Majesty......

According to his temperament, how can you be buried alive in Zhaoling for the new queen? Is...... I was so angry to hear it. ”

Mei Niang smiled faintly:

"It's impossible. But if I don't guess like this, Hui'er, the prince won't tell the truth. You know him, the most loyal in his life is His Majesty. If I hadn't provoked him so deliberately......

He won't tell the truth. ”

Mei Niang's expression was flat.

Xu Hui wanted to cry, but she didn't dare to cry, she just forced a smile:

"Really...... Good calculation. ”

Mei Niang nodded lightly, poured another wine, and drank with Xu Hui, before putting down the wine glass and saying:

"This deep palace has always been the first place in the world to calculate everywhere...... If we are not calculating, we will only be calculated by others......

Hui'er, you have been in this Taiji Palace for many years, don't you still understand this truth? ”

Xu Hui was silent, and said with tears in his eyes for a long time:

"You...... How are you going to do it? Really want to ...... To ......"

Mei Niang smiled lightly:

"Hui'er, you're right...... Your Majesty is indeed merciful. He left me the best path.

Do you remember when I asked Your Majesty to leave the palace? He...... This is changing the way to fulfill my heart's desire...... It's just a pity that things are wrong. Today's Wu Meiniang already has concerns in her heart.

As a result, what was originally an unattainable wish has become a tragic end that can be avoided and feared......

His Majesty is merciful, but Mei Niang has changed. ”

Xu Hui was speechless - as a woman in the palace, how could she not know that Taizong was already the greatest mercy? What's more, like Wang De, she deeply understands that Taizong's actions have a deep meaning......

But......

For some reason, all of a sudden, she had some resentment towards the man she loved.

Does it have to be that way?

After being silent for a long time, Mei Niang said softly:

"Hui'er, don't resent Your Majesty. He did this, but he solved my great problem. ”

Xu Hui said with tears in her eyes:

"But there could have been another way for you to go......

"What's the way forward? Hui'er, you should know. Although I pleaded with the prince today, I asked him to keep you in the Taiji Palace...... According to the rules, you can only live in the deep garden of the back court......

Hui'er, I know what you're thinking, but that's impossible. I have no power now, I have no name and no share, I can't fight them. It's impossible to fight.

Let alone...... Not to mention ......"

Mei Niang gritted her teeth:

"I can't ignore my mother."

When Xu Hui heard this, he gritted his teeth with hatred:

"You take care of them, where can they take care of you?! Mei Niang, have you thought about it, if they hadn't done what they did at the beginning, how could you be in danger today?!

Why do you ......?"

"But they are my mother sisters after all!"

Mei Niang couldn't help it after all, and shouted softly, tears rolling in her eyes:

"If I don't save it, who else can? Do you expect my two good brothers? Or are you counting on any minister in the court who can lend a helping hand?! ”

Xu Hui was silent, and after a long time, she hugged Mei Niang and cried bitterly.

Mei Niang endured it at first, but after enduring it, her tears kept falling like a string of beads with a broken thread.

Falling in despair.

Yes, she only has this way.

Long ago, she knew that this was the only way she could go.

It's just that......

Why, she is always a little unwilling?

Why?

Dazed, she looked up at the night sky, at the night sky where there was not half a star.

May 29, 23rd year of Zhenguan.

Noon.

On the Taiji Palace, Li Zhi was dressed in plain clothes and was waiting for the edict to be announced, but he suddenly heard that King Jing was playing outside the palace.

Li Zhi's heart sank when he heard this, and he looked at the eldest grandson Wuji.

Wuji nodded silently, Li Zhi was the king of Xuanjing.

……

"Uncle Wang, I don't know why you came to Taiji Palace today?"

Li Zhi sat quietly behind the Taizong case and asked softly.

King Jing looked at him, but before the ministers, he said solemnly:

"The ministers have come today for counsel to the Lord. But they don't know where the Lord is? ”

When Li Zhi heard this, he was secretly angry in his heart, but his face did not show any timidity, but he said calmly:

"My father had an edict to govern the palace. If Uncle Wang has advice, he can go to the palace. ”
