It was getting dark, and sure enough, he was still kneeling in the palace. He knelt for two hours www.biquge.info pen "Fun" pavilion, and his knees felt almost broken, but he could only grit his teeth and endure it.

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and Guo Shan was eroded by the torrential rain after a gust of wind.

Guo Shan, who had been exposed to the scorching sun for a long time during the day, immediately felt refreshed in the rain, and his depressed mood was a lot more relaxed, but Guo Shan knew that he was afraid that he would not be able to survive long in this rainstorm.

Guo Shan smacked his lips, squinted his eyes and knelt in front of the princess's courtyard under the rain, knowing that he was afraid that he would really kneel and die here, and Li Shimin would not take back his life. But if he gets up now and walks away, Li Shimin's anger will not be able to quench his anger, and he will still not be able to escape punishment. Now it is not a question of whether he Guo Shanyuan is willing to get up, but Li Shimin did not let him get up.

At this time, Li Xueyan and Li Lizhi came together. Holding the dust, they stepped on the waterlogged ground and wet their small cloth shoes.

Guo Shan raised his head and saw them coming out of the courtyard with the tapes, so he knew their intentions.

However, Guo Shan could not accept their kindness.

Guo Shan gradually entered his role state, and the heavy rain added a bit of pride to him. Secretly thinking about the past and present, the famous ministers advised to give up life and forget death, and only then did the good stories of the ages be heard. Even though he is not a famous minister, he can afford the four words 'speaking out', right?

was both proud and proud in his heart, seeing Li Lizhen and Li Xueyan's full of care, Guo Shan felt that his knees didn't hurt anymore. Looking at the respectful admiration and admiration in the eyes of the servants in the princess's courtyard, Guo Shan felt more and more that what he was doing today was correct. At this moment, what I thought about was not whether retreating would trigger Li Shimin's subsequent retaliation, but whether he could win the name of 'loyal liver and courage' after kneeling here.

Of course, the main purpose is to persuade Li Shimin to cancel Li Xueyan's affinity and use troops against Tuyuhun. There is little hope, but if there is hope, it should be pursued. Although this approach will bear the pressure given by Li Shimin and bear huge risks, compared with giving Li Shimin a boring person every day in the pear orchard and being a good minister for a mediocre life, Guo Shan feels that being a direct minister can make life more exciting.

Almost every traveler is an idealist, and it would be terrible to add a 'arrogance' to this foundation.

Guo Shan knelt for two more hours, and Li Shimin only said one sentence on a rainy night: Don't give Guo Shan an umbrella.

This is undoubtedly an order to make matters worse, and it can be seen that Li Shimin really wants Guo Shan to die a good death.

At this time, Guo Shan couldn't retreat, Li Shimin's order did not surprise Guo Shan at all, but aroused the arrogance in Guo Shan's heart. The only thing that Guo Shan is afraid of is that Li Lizhen will not be able to stand it.

Guo Shan didn't know Li Li's temperament very clearly, but this woman who was originally going to marry into Zhang Sun's family was a very assertive person. She had already lost the tassel in her hand and knelt in the rain with Guo Shan. Maybe the palace is Li Shimin's Yiyantang, but it doesn't mean that there are no strange women who dare to resist their own opinions.

She knelt in the rain, although she also wanted Li Shimin to take back her life, but I am afraid it was also to relieve Guo Shan's pressure, right? But God knows what Li Shimin thinks, in case Li Shimin thinks that he is bewitching his daughter to rebel against him, then Guo Shan really doesn't have to live.

Li Xueyan took Li Lizhen's hand and begged Li Lizhen to get up, she has been living with Li Lizhen since she came to Chang'an, and her relationship with Li Lizhen is the best, so she naturally doesn't want her cousin to get sick because of her.

If Guo Shan's death on his knees on a rainy night is not a big deal, then Princess Changle's death on a rainy night is definitely a big event. No one dared to let Li Lizhen kneel for a long time in the rainy night, and the servants who took care of Li Lizhen ran over and begged Li Lizhen to go back, and some of the servants were smart enough to report to Li Shimin and beg Li Shimin to solve the problem.

But Li Shimin still didn't come, but it was the eldest grandson queen with a big belly.

Perhaps Empress Changsun is the most suitable to appear at this time, her appearance not only makes people see the hope of solving the problem, but also allows Li Shimin's majesty to continue to be retained.

A group of maids held the scarlet and protected the eldest grandson queen.

Guo Shan was startled, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Minister Guo Shan has seen the queen's mother." ”

Over there, Li Lizhi and a handful of maids are also kneeling, and none of them are not wet on this rainy day.

Empress Eldest Sun glanced at Guo Shan lightly, her expression was quite unkind, and she said coldly: "Guo Shan, you are so capable." actually encouraged the princess to mess around with you, did you put the emperor and the palace in your eyes? ”

Guo Shan was startled, and he was aggrieved to death. Li Li said busily: "Queen Mother, this is none of Xiao Guo's business, it is the daughter herself who wants to ask her father not to let Xue Yan marry to Tuyuhun." ”

This is right, if Guo Shan didn't beg Li Shimin, she would have begged. It's just that it's a hurry, Guo Shan is one step ahead of her, and she has forced things to this point, so she simply knelt here and begged her father to take back her fate. So she knelt in the rain really can't be said to help Guo Shan, but the two people have the same purpose and use the same means.

Empress Eldest Sun knew the temperament of her eldest daughter best, and said lightly: "Do you think that if you kneel here, your father and emperor will be able to take back his life?" If you don't joke, how can you easily break your promise? What's more, a decision has already been made on major national issues? If I were you, I shouldn't kneel here, that would only anger your father, not only would the time for Xue Yan to marry Tuyuhun be accelerated, but also make your father turn his anger at you into hatred for Guo Shan. ”

It's not that Li Lizhen doesn't understand this, it's just that she made the decision to kneel because she was really difficult to make a choice before.

Then he kowtowed and said: "Please let the queen mother let the father take back his fate, the daughter knows that the queen mother will definitely be able to have a way." ”

Perhaps, from the beginning, it was not Li Shimin who knelt down, it was the eldest grandson queen who knelt. It is not Li Shimin who is asking, but the eldest grandson.

Guo Shan suddenly felt that he might have overlooked something. also suddenly felt that Li Li's kneeling was actually to let the eldest grandson queen come over and make the eldest grandson queen feel distressed. At least in Guo Shan's opinion, Empress Eldest Sun is much more reasonable than Li Shimin, I'm afraid Li Lizhen thinks so too, right?

Next to her, Li Xueyan, who had not spoken, also cried and called "uncle", her voice and face were full of pleading, looking very pitiful.

Empress Eldest Sun sighed lightly, strode out of the stool and walked towards Li Xueyan: "Good boy, I'm sorry for you." ”

The maids next to them were all in a panic, and they all went to hide from the rain for the eldest grandson queen with their hairpins. However, the rain is so easy to hide, and the clothes of the eldest grandson queen are soaked for a small part.

Empress Eldest Sun ignored her half-soaked clothes, and did not dislike Li Xueyan's wet clothes, but took Li Xueyan in her arms and asked softly, "Do you complain about your uncle?" ”

Li Xueyan pouted, shaking her head with teary eyes: "No." ”

The voice is still crying.

Empress Eldest Sun gently stroked Li Xueyan's face with her palm and said, "Don't you want to go to Tuguhun?" ”

Li Xueyan still shook her head and said, "Dad said that I came to Chang'an City to listen to my uncle and aunt." I will do whatever my uncle and aunt tell me to do. My uncle and aunt taught me how to do it, and I did it without complaint. ”

She may not really be able to understand the meaning of this sentence, but even if she does, I am afraid that it will be extremely painful to do so. Guo Shan next to him sighed, secretly thinking that this is the consciousness that a royal woman should have since she was a child? Maybe they should have such an awareness, because God has given you a considerable life experience, but it is impossible to give you a little more luck.

"In the past when Emperor Yuan of the Western Han Dynasty, Zhaojun went out of the fortress, making the Han and Hungarian clans like a family. Is it the responsibility of the country to rise and fall? As a royal child, he should set an example in the world. You may have heard these things from your father, and you may have heard them from your sister. However, you do not know these truths, and you do not understand them yet. She got up, glanced at Guo Shan lightly and said: "Princess Yicheng of Sui Shicheng and pro-Turkic, after the change of four Turkic emperors, she has suffered a lot all her life. Hongu doesn't like her, but admires her bloodiness and persistence. In the eyes of the palace, although she was later killed by General Li Jing, the palace still admired her. Her courage and loyalty are far superior to those of the brave generals of the Sui Dynasty, and the likes of Yang Zhengdao cannot be compared to this woman. She was a true royal woman, and she did everything she had to do until she died. ”

The words of Empress Changsun reminded Guo Shan of the princess Yicheng, who took the initiative to marry a Turkic woman for the benefit of the country when Emperor Wen of Sui was in power. This woman did give wives to four Turkic khans successively, and the terrible thing is that among these khans, her husband married her son after his death, and the son was then the son's younger brother, but Rao was so, she also survived strongly, and contributed to the Sui Dynasty all her life, and after the death of Emperor Yang, she helped Yang Zhengdao establish the Later Sui, and until her death, the country was ruined and she never surrendered to the victor until she was killed by Li Jing.

This is a woman who fought to the death, and may not have a good reputation, and she has even been removed from the royal family tree, but the experience of her life is not unimpressive.

Listening to Empress Changsun said: "This palace said this, do you all understand?" Know what to do? He looked at Li Li again and said, "Take your sister back to the house, if you really want your father to take back your fate, you should think of a reason that can move your father to take back his fate." ”

After the eldest grandson queen finished speaking, she didn't know what Li Lizhen thought, so she kowtowed and really got up.

Guo Shan's mind was still thinking about the Princess Yicheng that Empress Changsun said, that woman was indeed worthy of admiration, but should everyone follow suit? Harmony is for the peace of the world. Is this an excuse for ministers to justifiably let royal women marry away from home?

Maybe all the royal women should be on par with Princess Yicheng, but Guo Shan doesn't think so; He always believes that the willingness of others to pay does not mean that he can accept it calmly. If others are not willing to pay, let alone be morally bound to let others pay, but they enjoy it calmly.
