This meal, the Hongmen feast.

Father-in-law Mu Ru slowly helped her up, she only felt that her steps suddenly became weak, and she couldn't stand steadily.

Emperor Ming Yuan's words are actually heart-wrenching.

The fifth child has today's situation, and she is the initiator.

That's right.

Regardless of whether she is the original Yuan Qingling or not, this pot can only be her back.

Otherwise, if anything happens in the future, this matter will be brought out and said.

She looked at Emperor Ming Yuan's bright yellow clothes embroidered with a sea of clouds pattern, and there were several five-clawed real dragons entrenched on them, with fine stitches and exquisite embroidery, and the dragon was lifelike as if it was about to fly out of him.

Her eyes were hot, she bowed, and said bitterly: "Father, take care, Yuanqing Ling farewell!" ”

Emperor Ming Yuan turned his back to her, did not say a word, his face was gloomy, and the nobility of his whole body seemed to be covered by gloom, looking indifferent and stubborn.

Mu Ru's father-in-law helped Yuan Qing Ling down, and Man'er and Ah Si waited outside to blow their bodies stiff.

Seeing Yuan Qing Ling coming down, the two stepped forward to help, and Mu Ru's father-in-law sighed softly, "Princess, why bother?" It's not good for anyone like this, aren't you just a Miss Hu? The entry is just a side concubine, and it can't affect your love with the King of Chu. ”

Ah Si was startled, "What? And a side concubine? ”

Yuan Qingling pressed his hand and said tiredly: "Let's go." ”

Mu Ru's father-in-law turned around and sent a forbidden army to come over and told him to take the eunuch to pass the king of Chu into the palace.

All the way out, Man'er and Ah Si didn't dare to ask, because Yuan Qingling's face was ugly.

However, Mu Ru's father-in-law chased him all the way out, and when he saw that Yuan Qingling fell into silence, he sighed and said: "The princess blames the emperor, he has no choice but to do so." ”

"I know he wouldn't do this to me if he wasn't forced to do this." Yuan Qingling said softly.

She looked at the deep alleyway, and felt that the light in front of her had disappeared, General Hu had a meritorious role in suppressing bandits, sealing the Marquis of Zhenbei, the army was far away at the border, and the army was self-respecting, and the court wanted to contain the Marquis of Zhenbei, so he naturally had to ask his daughter to stay in Beijing.

asked the fifth child to marry her as a side concubine, and it was justified.

Why the fifth? It's also easy to understand, the emperor said that she didn't understand his mind, but in fact she did.

Now the three giants are optimistic about the fifth child, and she is pregnant, so the fifth is the candidate who has the best chance of becoming the prince, and the prince candidate will be settled in the future, the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenbei is the prince Liangdi, he naturally has to protect the fifth child, even if he doesn't protect it, at least he won't start a rebellion.

In fact, from the first time she learned about the emperor's intentions, she began to panic.

Because Lao Wu is no longer a person, there will be many forces behind him to push him, these forces are more than his own strength, he can't even be autonomous, he can only be pushed forward by others.

As it is now.

It wasn't what he wanted, but he had to.

The funny thing is that when she thought that Chu Mingcui was dead, Chu Mingyang married King Ji as a side concubine, and when she could finally live a good life for a few days, everything changed drastically.

She didn't resent Emperor Ming Yuan, because in his opinion, the stability of the Northern Tang Dynasty was far more important than her so-called happiness of Yuan Qingling.

What are you Yuan Qingling? For the sake of you alone, do you have to ask others to ignore the overall situation?

"Father-in-law, my father has my father's difficulties, I don't know how to go against him, I naturally know that he chose the best way for me, the prince won't like Miss Hu, even if I marry and enter the door, there is no threat to me, we are still a loving couple."

Mu Ru's father-in-law said puzzledly: "Since the princess knows, why do you still disobey the emperor?" You must know that if the emperor really wants to embarrass you, he will not specially ask you to come to the palace for a meal, and tell you well, you will not disobey the holy decree if you go down directly to the will. ”

Yuan Qingling smiled bitterly, "My father really values me very much, I can't help but know how to lift up, but I have suffered a lot recently, which has made the prince tremble, he will not let Miss Hu enter the door, is his disobedience serious or am I serious against the emperor tonight?" My father-in-law knew that I went back to my parents' house and snubbed myself, which was good for me and the child in my womb, at least, no one would want to make trouble to harm a waste concubine for the time being. ”

Mu Ru's father-in-law couldn't help but admire, "The princess is as careful as dust, which makes our family admire, if the emperor can know your thoughts, he will definitely treat you well." ”

Yuan Qingling said: "I don't care if I treat him well or not, I just hope that the prince can have a smooth life." ”

She cared, and when she said this to Mu Ru's father-in-law, she wanted the emperor to treat her well in the future.

It is impossible for her to give up the fifth child easily, she retreats as advances, and also to preserve her marriage.

She must also be preserved, otherwise, after the child is born, she will be taken away, and she will never let the family separate.

In the palace, no matter how closely the fifth child watches it, in the end, she is still standing on the cusp.

Lao Wu cared about her, let him be restrained everywhere, knowing who the murderer was, he didn't dare to do it easily, just for fear that the other party's backlash would harm her life.

He seems to be doing it step by step, but in fact he is struggling.

Out of the palace and into the carriage, she lifted the curtain and looked at the east gate of the palace, in the darkness, the palace lay quietly like a giant beast, and the east gate seemed to be a bloody mouth, to devour all the people who came in and out.

Thinking that he could stay away from here a little in the future, Yuan Qingling was actually relieved in his heart.

Stroking the slightly fluttering child in her womb, her heart became more and more firm.

Mu Ru's father-in-law still sat in front of the car driver, and Ah Si and Man'er accompanied him inside.

Ah Si endured it for a long time, and when the curtain fell, she said angrily: "Does the emperor want to take a concubine for the prince again?" Princess, you can't agree. ”

Yuan Qingling gently rubbed the embroidery of the clothes on his abdomen, and said softly: "Ah Si, you will go back to the Yuan Mansion tomorrow." ”

Ah Si was stunned, "Princess, don't you want Ah Si to accompany you?" ”

The carriage was bumpy, Yuan Qingling stretched out his hand to hold the cushion on the backrest, and said: "No, I will go back to my parents' house tonight, I don't know when I will return to the palace, you go back first, and when I return to the palace, I will invite you to come over as a guest." ”

"Why do you want to go back to your parents' house?" Ah Si asked in shock.

Yuan Qingling's eyes raised slightly, "Because, I don't agree with the prince marrying a side concubine, the emperor asked me to go back to my parents' house to reflect." ”

Ah Si almost cried, and exclaimed, "Isn't the emperor going to break up you and the prince?" Why is he so cruel? ”

Yuan Qingling held her hand and patted it gently, "Don't shout, Father-in-law Mu Ru is outside." ”

"Ah Si is not afraid," Ah Si was extremely angry, "Why did the emperor do this?" Princess, you're still pregnant. ”

Yuan Qing Ling said silently: "Because even the emperor has a last resort, Ah Si, the matter has been decided, you can pack your things and go back tomorrow, don't follow me." ”

She looked at Man'er, "What about you?" Will you stay in the palace or will you follow me back to your parents' house? ”

Man'er has been listening, she is shocked and very sad for the princess, but her face is still very calm, just waiting for Yuan Qingling to speak.

As soon as he heard her ask, he hurriedly said: "Where the princess goes, the barbarian will go." ”

Ah Si also said: "Me too, wherever the princess goes, Ah Si will go, and I and Man'er will follow the princess." ”
