Chapter 163: The Matter of Destiny

The banquet naturally ended early because of the encounter with the assassins, but it was not too early.

Su Li has always been by Su Yu's side, although he knows that he is fine, he is still not at ease.

Usually, she can try her best to ignore Su Yu, but she really can't ignore an injured Su Yu, not to mention that he is still injured because of himself.

The imperial physician had already bandaged Su Yu's wounds, and some other injured female relatives were placed in another place, separating the men and women.

And because Su Yu was the only one injured among the men, the imperial doctor gave some precautions and then retreated, and the emperor Su Fan and the queen Shen Wan went to talk to Prime Minister Han Qian again, and only Su Yu and Su Li were left in the house.

Su Li said worriedly: "Brother Yu, does it hurt?"

When I said it, I felt like I was asking some idiotic question. How is it possible not to hurt?

Su Yu chuckled lightly and said, "Li'er, Brother Yu thinks you're getting cuter and cuter." ”

Su Li's face flushed, "What did Brother Yu say?" ”

Su Yu stretched out his hand and touched her hair, and said, "I didn't make fun of you, I told the truth." ”

"Why did Brother Yu want to save Li'er? You know that I have martial arts and can protect myself. Su Li still asked the question in her heart, she wanted to know what she was in Su Yu's heart?

Su Yu looked at Su Li meaningfully, and said, "Are you sure that your three-legged cat's kung fu can handle these people?" Obviously, these people are all coming for you, and their assassination of the emperor is just a pretense, but the ultimate goal is you." ”

Su Li was a little embarrassed, after all, the kung fu three-legged cat was said by herself, and she couldn't refute it now.

But fortunately, Su Yu changed the topic in time, and she was able to ignore the embarrassment comfortably, as if Su Yu had already explained.

She nodded, "I can see that they are indeed coming for me." Perhaps, it has something to do with the previous princes. ”

Su Yu was stunned, this was probably the killer sent by his father to kill Li'er.

He actually didn't want to hide it from Li'er, but if he wanted to tell her, he also needed to tell Li'er the reason. He thought about it, and waited for Li Er to confess his identity to him before telling her.

"Brother Yu, what's wrong with you?" Su Li rarely saw Su Yu, who had lost his mind, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

Su Yu smiled lightly and said, "It's nothing, Li'er still has to be careful recently, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and I will naturally investigate this matter thoroughly." ”

Su Li nodded slightly.

There was a silence between the two, each with their own thoughts.

After a long time, Su Li spoke up, and the emotions contained in his voice were a little unclear. She called, "Brother Yu." ”

Su Yu looked at Su Li with a smile, with a slight doting in his eyes.

Su Li lowered his head and said in a somewhat low tone: "Can you stop being so good to Li'er?" Li'er is afraid that she will eventually like Brother Yu......

Su Yu was very helpless in his heart, he really wanted to debunk her identity now, so that she would not be so entangled anymore. It's hard to wait until she's willing to be honest, but this little girl likes to drill more and more.

Still, he tried his best to control himself, and it was better to wait until she was willing to speak herself.

"Li Er is also Brother Yu's sister, can't Brother Yu be good to Li Er?"

Su Yu said lightly on the surface, but in his heart it is actually like this: Fuck your sister, who treats you as a sister, I will clearly treat you as a future lady!

Su Li muttered, "But I don't treat you as a brother!"

Su Yu heard this sentence, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and said, "Li'er, what did you just say?"

"I didn't ...... Nothing ......."

......

After everything was under control, Emperor Su Fan and Empress Shen Wan called Prime Minister Han Qian to the imperial study to talk.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the imperial study is a little quiet.

After seeing the spectacle of Han Xiangmo's performance, they didn't know how to speak, so they didn't take the liberty to mention what happened just now.

In the end, it was Queen Shen Wan who took the lead in speaking, and said: "When the prince was one year old, the abbot of Tianlang Temple once calculated his fate. said that the crown princess destined by the prince was a person who could lead a hundred birds with music and rhythm, and the emperor and the palace did not believe it before. After all, I have never heard of such a spectacle in more than ten years. But today's performance at the banquet was really eye-opening, and the palace believed the words of the abbot. ”

"I don't know...... What does Han Xiang think about this?"

This matter of fortune reckoning is a royal secret, and it has never been known to outsiders. On the one hand, it is because the Southern Tang Dynasty is no longer a country that believes in fate, and the royal family needs to lead by example. But on the other hand, the rule handed down by the ancestors, when the prince is one year old, he needs to let the eminent monks of Tianlang Temple calculate who the princess of the prince's destiny is, which is a rule passed down from the founding emperor.

Queen Shen Wan now informed her of this, and she also hoped that Han Xiang would stop preventing the marriage between the prince and Han Xiangmo, after all, Han Xiangmo was the destined princess, and neither she nor the emperor wanted the destined princess to marry someone else.

Prime Minister Han Qian was in a very heavy mood, and sighed slightly and said: "Back to the emperor, the queen mother, in fact, the little girl is destined for the crown princess...... Wechen already knew about it......"

The emperor and the queen were both shocked, and the emperor Su Fan was surprised: "This matter of life calculation is only known to me, the queen and the abbot of Tianlang Temple, and it stands to reason that there should not be a fourth person who knows about it." Aiqing, how did you know?"

Prime Minister Han Qian seemed to be caught in his memories, and he said slowly: "This matter has to start when the little girl was born. The little girl had a serious illness during the full moon period, and at that time, Weichen invited Langzhong from all Luoyang City, but they all said that the little girl was not saved. Just when Weichen was at a loss, a monk suddenly came, saying that he could cure the little girl's illness. Weichen really had no other way at that time, and when he heard that he could cure it, he naturally let him try. ”

"The monk lived in the house for a month, and at first, the little girl's illness did not improve. But I didn't expect that under his treatment, half a month later, Xiaonu's illness gradually improved. By the time he was about to leave, the little girl's illness was almost better. ”

Before he left, Wechen rewarded him with a large amount of money, but he refused. He only said that the little girl's fate was very extraordinary, and she was the destined crown princess, but if she became the crown princess, she would not live to be twenty years old......"

After Han Xiang said this, he burst into tears for a while, and remembered what his beloved wife said to him before she died, and her eyes were even more tearful.

He originally thought that as long as Mo'er did not have any contact with people in the royal family in this life, as long as she was ordinary in this life, he might be able to survive that catastrophe, and he would not have to send a white-haired person to a black-haired person.

But who would have thought that in this darkness, everything was already doomed.

Han Xiang's words, for a while, made the emperor and the queen not know how to answer.

It turned out to be this reason, no wonder Han Xiang has always refused to agree to marry the royal family. However, Han Xiang's words also made the couple admire Han Xiang's noble quality even more.

Han Qian said again: "At the beginning, Weichen didn't believe it. But later the monk said that the little girl could use music to attract a hundred birds in the future, and Weichen was just a joke at that time. After all, this is such a spectacle as attracting a hundred birds, how can it be easily attracted. Who knows, when the little girl was six years old, she really attracted a hundred birds with the sound of the flute......"

Wechen didn't believe it...... I have to believe it......"

In fact, what Han Qian said was not all true, but most of it was true. It's just that Han Xiangmo is not going to live to be twenty years old, but will die for the prince. If he tells the truth, it is inevitable that the emperor and the queen will forcibly complete this marriage on the grounds that "the royal family will definitely protect your daughter".

The monk did not say that Han Xiangmo's rhythm could attract a hundred birds, but only said the four words "a hundred birds and a phoenix". Han Qian, who has been an official for many years, naturally wouldn't say this, or in front of the queen, that is disrespect for the mother.

It is also true that Han Xiangmo was able to use music to attract a hundred birds when he was six years old, which is needless to say, but only by saying this can the credibility of the prophecy of the emperor and the queen to the monk. Only then can what he has to say be useful.

Prime Minister Han Qian suddenly fell straight to his knees.

The emperor and the queen were both stunned, and the emperor Su Fan hurriedly said: "Aiqing, what are you doing?

Han Qian still straightened his back, knelt on the ground, and said with teary eyes: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, please listen to Weichen's words." As a courtier, Weichen should have solved problems for the emperor, and he should have agreed to a family affair between the little daughter and His Royal Highness the Prince. But at the same time, Wechen is also a father. As a father, how can he agree to this family affair when he knows that his daughter will not live to be twenty years old if she becomes the crown princess?"

"Weichen is such a son and daughter, the child and his mother went early, and the two of them grew up without a mother since they were children. And I, as a father, have been busy with official duties and have not given them too much care, which is already indebted. Mrs. left a last wish before she died, asking me to make their own decisions on the marriage of their brother and sister, but Yuxuan's marriage had gone against Mrs. Will. In the marriage of the little girl, Weichen is no longer extravagant, but hopes that the little girl can spend her life plainly. ”

"Your Majesty, please forgive Weichen for being a father, Weichen is willing to serve the emperor all his life, and only ask the emperor to let the little girl spend this life safely, even if it is a green lantern ancient Buddha. ”

Prime Minister Han Qian has said everything to this point, and the emperor and queen are naturally not good at what to say.

However, Emperor Su Fan thought for a while and said, "Aiqing, I can understand your love for your daughter." But let me and the queen think about it in advance, after all, according to me and the queen, Ling Yan and the crown prince seem to have developed. ”

After all, Prime Minister Han Qian has been with the king for so many years, so he naturally knows the emperor very well, and when he heard him say this, he knew that his heart had loosened a little, and he also retreated peacefully.
