Chapter 424: The Woman Without Virtue

Lu Yuening was about to speak, but he heard the emperor say: "Fang Shuli's matter is put aside for the time being, and we will talk about it when Li Changzai comes, let's talk about Fang Shuyu's matter first, Mrs. Fang, what do you think this matter should be?" ”

Dong Yuexi looked at Fang Shuyu, who was already half frightened to death, and thought to herself that now it seems that the emperor does not really want to convict the Fang family of bullying the king, although her daughter did not marry a relative of the emperor as she wanted, it is not impossible to marry a right counselor, besides, I heard that Li Changzai is still young, and it should not be unworthy of his daughter, thinking of this, Dong Yuexi gritted her teeth and said: "Yu'er's matter, the concubine is really difficult to talk about...... Please also ask the emperor to forgive the sin. ”

The emperor said: "Forgiveness? Your Fang family is so bold, if Fang Jinyan hadn't known in advance and reminded the Empress Dowager, would it be possible that you would marry a daughter who was already innocent to the Wang family? ”

Dong Yuexi thought that the emperor didn't know that Fang Shuyu was pregnant, and originally wanted to use this to put Fang Jinyan to death, but she didn't expect that not only could she not do it now, but it might also make the Fang family hang to death, so she could only say: "Your Majesty, the concubines don't dare, since Yu'er is at fault first, the emperor can't punish him too much." ”

Someone in the crowd said: "In the end, it doesn't matter if you die or not." ”

Dong Yuexi's face froze, and she didn't speak.

The emperor smiled and said, "I have a number in my heart, as for Fang Jinyan......"

Dong Yuexi hurriedly said: "Jinyan has not been raised by my side, and there is a loss of etiquette, and the concubine must teach her well when she goes back." If the emperor thinks Jinyan is guilty...... The concubine didn't dare to say more, everything was done according to the emperor's will. ”

The emperor glanced at Dong Yuexi and ignored it. Instead, he whispered a few words to Leng Yi, Leng Yi nodded, stood up, and walked out of the veil.

Fang Jinyan saw Leng Yi walking out of the veil, walked straight to Fang Ziqing, squatted down and didn't know what to say to Fang Ziqing, Fang Ziqing glanced at himself. Then he glanced at Dong Yuexi again, thought about it, and nodded quickly.

Leng Yi got up and walked to Fang Jinyan's side without speaking. Instead, he glanced at her, but with that glance, Fang Jinyan understood everything, but his expression did not change. I was relieved. It seems that this emperor really understands his heart, great!

Fang Shuyu knelt between Fang Jinyan and Fang Shuli, and asked in a low voice, "What did Lord Leng say to his father when he came over?" ”

Fang Shuli shook his head, glanced at Fang Jinyan, lowered his voice and said to Fang Jinyan: "I thought you wouldn't help me." ”

Fang Jinyan smiled indifferently and said, "Who called you my eldest sister?" ”

Fang Shuli was a little surprised, and then said: "If I marry Master Li, it is actually good for the other party's family." Isn't it? I used to think that Master Li liked you, but I found out later...... The person he likes is me. I was still thinking, I can't compare to you in any way, why have you been back for less than half a year, even the prime minister can be so good to you, you are just a girl. ”

Fang Jinyan smiled, glanced at Fang Shuli, and said, "What the eldest sister said is true!" ”

Fang Shuli sighed and said: "In terms of family affairs, in terms of background, you naturally can't compare with me, if I am good in the future, I will naturally not forget you, I will tell my mother to tell you a good family business, don't let you get married too shabby, and it can be regarded as the only thing I can help you." ”

After hearing this, Fang Shuyu said anxiously: "Eldest sister, what about me?" I have been following you, listening to you everywhere, doing what you say, you have to help me with today's matter, begging Lord Li to plead with the emperor and spare me. ”

Fang Shuli glanced at Fang Shuyu with disdain, and said: "Stupid thing, thinking that you still have a cheap seed in your belly, how can you let me help you, but don't let the emperor know that the matter of your stomach is the best, is it possible to let me find you a good family to marry?" ”

Fang Shuyu couldn't help crying sadly after hearing this.

Suddenly, I heard someone report that it was Li Changzai, the right counselor, that Fang Shuli's cheeks were slightly red, and he shyly glanced at Li Changzai, who had already walked outside the veil, with a spring in his eyes, and a very shy look.

Li Changzai stood outside the veil, first glanced at Fang Jinyan, with a smile in his eyes, but did not look at Fang Shuli, but arched his hand and said, "The minister sees the emperor." ”

The emperor beckoned and motioned for Li Changzai to come in, Leng Yi glanced at Li Changzai, and the two made brief eye contact, without saying a word.

"Li Aiqing, do you already know why I called you here?"

Li Changzai knelt down and saluted, "The minister understands." ”

The emperor said: "Then what do you mean ......?"

Li Changzai smiled slightly, raised his head and glanced at the emperor, his afterglow looked outside the veil, it was a face that made him dream, that eyebrows, that look, that smile, that bright face like a peach blossom in spring.

"Please fulfill the emperor!" After Li Changzai finished speaking, he retracted his gaze, and a faint smile on the corner of his mouth was fleeting.

The emperor glanced at Leng Yi, then at Li Changzai, and said, "Although this is just your private love for your children, you have been reading the sage books with me for four years since you were a child." ”

Li Changzai understood what the emperor meant, and said gratefully: "The emperor's mind Changzai understands that this time he didn't care about the private agreement between the minister and Shu, and the minister is grateful. ”

The emperor sighed and said: "I know that you have always had a close relationship with the boss of the Wang family, so naturally I won't joke about this matter anymore, after all, I am choosing a relative for the Wang family, and Fang Shuli is also among the women of the right age, and you are not a person who has not yet married a wife and a concubine, and you are not in a hurry, why, this time ......"

Li Changzai glanced at the emperor and said with a look of guilt: "Minister...... It's also hard to help yourself, and I hope the emperor won't blame Shuli, it's all the fault of the ministers. ”

The emperor laughed and said: "That's it, that's it, anyway, the Wang family has already chosen a daughter-in-law, if you really like that Fang Shuli, you won't let you regret it, it's just that you already have a wife's room, so I asked Lord Leng to ask Lord Fang, Lord Fang is quite reasonable, after all, your current wife's father's grade is half a level higher than that of Lord Fang, so the Fang family has nothing to say." ”

Li Changzai said with emotion: "The emperor is still thoughtful, and the minister thinks that Shuli naturally does not look at my official position, but at me as a person, so ...... It may not matter whether it is a wife or a concubine. ”

After speaking, Li Changzai glanced at Leng Yi seemingly inadvertently, Leng Yi felt a little sad for Li Changzai's sacrifice this time, and he only learned that Li Changzai could love Fang Jinyan the night before, and even did not hesitate to marry a woman he didn't love for her, of course, Fang Jinyan didn't know about this matter.

Seeing that Li Changzai was very determined, the emperor motioned for him to get up, and then said, "Fang Shuli listens to the order." ”

Although Fang Shuli said that she didn't know what Li Changzai and the emperor said before, she felt that the time of the Wang family was longer than her seventeen years, and finally heard the emperor call herself, Fang Shuli hurriedly responded.

"Since you and Li Changzai and Master Li are both willing, I don't think Lord Fang's face will punish you anymore, I hope that after you enter the Li family, you will abide by women's morals and stop doing things that will disgrace the Fang family and the Li family."

Hearing this, Fang Shuli knew that the emperor had already promised his marriage to Li Changzai, so he quickly kowtowed and knelt down to thank him.

Dong Yuexi on the side was not carried away by the joy of her own daughter, but felt a little uneasy about the emperor's ambiguous words, so she said: "I don't know what kind of title my daughter gave when she married into the Li family?" ”

As soon as Dong Yuexi said this, Fang Shuli thought about it, and also looked nervously at the veil and waited for the emperor's reply.

The emperor cleared his throat, glanced at Li Changzai, and then said: "This matter is naturally not in my charge, as for what the title is, Lord Li himself will tell you." ”

Li Changzai nodded, walked out of the veil, glanced at Fang Shuli, smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and said: "I have already told the emperor that the fifteenth day of this month is an auspicious day, and then I can take Shuli home, since I have a relationship with Shuli, I will naturally not treat her badly, and I will definitely take care of her in the future, and please rest assured that Lord Fang and Mrs. Fang." ”

Dong Yuexi's heart became even more uneasy, could it be ...... Thinking of this, Dong Yuexi asked: "Then what Lord Li means is that my family Shuli is not married, but you take it, right?" ”

When Fang Shuli heard this, his face suddenly turned pale, this is too clear, his wife is still married, but the concubine can't say that she is married, thinking of this, Fang Shuli didn't care about any courtesy, couldn't help but stand up, walked quickly to Li Changzai's side, looked at his beloved man with both eyes, and asked softly: "Changzai, what did you just say?" Pick me up? Isn't that marrying me? ”

Li Changzai looked at Fang Shuli, after all, he didn't hate her, so he comforted: "Okay, you also know that I am not a child anymore, I am in my twenties, how can I not have three wives and four concubines?" When you pass, you are my fifth lady, and I will naturally treat you well. ”

Like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Fang Shuli listened, and suddenly collapsed to the ground, crying in despair.

Dong Yuexi knelt on the spot and begged loudly: "Your Majesty, my daughter is the only daughter of the Fang family, how can she be a concubine for others?" Ask the emperor to take back his order, and our Shu will not leave the Li family as a concubine. ”

Leng Yi said: "Mrs. Fang, what do you think the emperor is?" You are so bold that you dare to order the emperor, didn't you say it just now, everything is up to the emperor? How did you change your hexagram at this time? And your daughter herself said it herself, please fulfill the emperor, if you don't agree, then you are disrespectful, do you know what the consequences are? ”

Fang Ziqing suddenly said at this time: "Dong Yuexi, you shut up for me, when will it be your turn to call the shots in this family?" I knew that my daughter had such a difference in your eyes, I was really blind and let you in the door, no wonder your son is the only one in my family for so many years, I have seen it clearly and figured it out, today in front of the emperor, I will divorce you, a virtuous woman!
