Chapter Thirty-Eight, The Apex of Morality
Shen Muqing didn't bother to continue talking nonsense, in her opinion, it was obvious that chickens and ducks were talking, each holding their own opinions, "Okay, do you have to let this princess refute the eviction order in the face of the master's family?" ”
Yang Defu didn't seem to have the intention of giving in, and continued: "Even if Her Royal Highness the princess expels guests, the lower officials will have to seek justice for tens of thousands of soldiers in the inner city. ”
Li Dequan seemed to have reached the ignition point, and then Yang Defu's words continued: "Even if the general is not a deserter, the identity of the god of war cannot change the fact that he caused a war at the border because of marrying a woman, and asked Her Royal Highness the princess to give a satisfactory answer to the ministers." ”
Shen Muqing's face was already full of impatience, she really regretted talking to this group of old antiques just now, "What is a satisfactory answer?" What is a child who does not have a full moon on the battlefield? Or let Li Shu marry to the border? Or do you want the entire General's Mansion to be sacrificed? ”
"Naturally, it's all up to the princess."
"Listen to the princess's arrangement? Do you look aggressive at this time like obedience to the arrangement? The General's Mansion has been serving the country and the people for generations, what is wrong with him marrying a woman he loves? Could it be that our country is so weak that we need a woman to sacrifice herself and her relatives in exchange for peace? Do you feel that others have nothing to do with you? ”
"Princess, don't say that the general's mansion is for the country and the people, if they really serve the country, how can they recruit soldiers to fight, and cause those ** ions to be scattered and have no father since childhood." Li Dequan said indignantly, and his momentum did not diminish the scholar of that day.
"Come on, drag these rebels who disturbed the banquet down and wait for disposal!" She's really fed up with this group of pedantic veterans who always stand at the top of morality and look at people.
"The ministers are willing to suffer, but I ask Her Royal Highness the princess to give a reasonable answer to the people." Yang Defu didn't resist anything, and when he knelt on the ground, he stretched out his wrist to tie him up.
Li Shu, who went to the backyard at some point, walked slowly into the lobby with a baby in his arms at this time, and his red clothes attracted the attention of most people, interrupting the noise in the hall.
"Please also ask Her Royal Highness the princess to calm her anger, Lord Yang and Lord Li think about the people, and it is the blessing of the people of my dynasty to get this virtuous official."
Shen Muqing looked at Li Shu puzzled, she was obviously seeking justice for her, why did she still turn her elbow out.
Ruan Muheng grabbed Shen Muqing, who was about to open his mouth to question, shook his head at her and said, "It seems that it is really inevitable to take away the little general today." ”
"What do you mean?" Before Shen Muqing could ask a question, Li Shu knelt on the ground in front of the full house.
"Courtesy Li Shu, kneel and beg the eldest princess to adopt my son Xie Shu."
"Li Shu, you..." Shen Muqing didn't react a little, and asked with a stutter: "What are you doing here?" ”
"Please also ask Her Royal Highness the princess to agree to the request of the courtiers, today's child Xie Shu's poisoning is obvious to all, it is naturally unsafe for him to stay in the general's mansion, and please ask Her Royal Highness the princess to adopt my son, Li Shu is here to ask the princess for the ancestors of the Xie family."
Shen Muqing, who had already agreed to take in Xie Shu, naturally would not refuse at this time, and agreed: "In this case, Xie Shu is a member of my royal family from now on, if anyone hurts him, harms him and disrespects him, he is an enemy of my princess's mansion, and the end does not need to be explained by this princess one by one, right?" ”
Li Shu put the baby sleeping in his arms on the ground, and kowtowed three times without hesitation, Mo stepped forward in distress to help her up, but Li Shu avoided his hand.
"Mo, you will be responsible for sending the princess and the little general back to the princess's mansion in a while."
"Subordinates receive orders."
Li Shu looked at the official beside her without any vitality, it used to be her favorite official uniform, whether her father was a national teacher or a prime minister, she liked to wear that official uniform the most.
It's just that now it looks a little more disgusting.
"Lord Yang, Lord Li's question will be answered by the General's Mansion tomorrow morning, and please don't spoil my son's birthday banquet."
Li Dequan is very good at looking at the situation, and when he saw that Li Shu had already said this, he no longer continued to be embarrassed, after all, he never wanted to offend the emperor's favored daughter from beginning to end.
Before the end of the banquet, King Ping stepped forward and patted Li Shu on the shoulder and said, "Brother and daughter-in-law, it's hard work." ”
Then without saying a word, he put the talisman in his hand into Li Shu's hand, "This king just wants to live a stable life with his beauty, this killing battlefield has nothing to do with this king, and the talisman that Brother Xie gave to this king should naturally be returned to its original owner." ”
Li Shu clenched the talisman in her hand, what she lacked now was the group of troops who were loyal to Xie Zixu.
Now, King Ping has already given her half of it, and the rest will be up to her to win it tomorrow morning.
After the banquet, Li Shu disappeared, and she disappeared in the General's Mansion without even touching Xie Shu again.
Shen Muqing waited for a long time and didn't find anyone, so he was a little disappointed: "Tell your wife, if you miss the child, you can go to the princess's mansion at any time, no matter what time I am." ”
"Yes, Your Highness Princess."
The moment she turned around, a girl dressed in light green clothes and with a double pill head hurriedly came with her bags on her back and said: "The slave and maid see Her Royal Highness the Princess, the slave and maid are the personal maids of the little general in the future, and I hope that Her Royal Highness the Princess will give the slave and maid a name." ”
Shen Muqing subconsciously glanced at Ruan Muheng not far away, she wanted to ask if this person would accept it, but Ruan Muheng completely understood the wrong meaning and said, "Do you want me to help you name it?" If the emerald flower is not good, what about the yellow flower? ”
Shen Muqing clenched his fists and said, "You just call it a trumpet flower." Then he quickly picked up the maid kneeling in front of him and asked, "What was your original name?" ”
"The slave maid was originally called Cuiping."
Although it is still related to Cui, it must pass Ruan Muheng's yellow flower, and hurriedly said: "Then it will be called Cuiping, and it will take a while to get used to it." ”
Cui Ping followed Shen Muqing into the carriage with a face full of disbelief, and she only now understood why Li Shu wanted to hand over her child to the noble and arrogant princess.
The woman in front of her does not have the arrogance of a princess at all, and she is just a small family of jasper.
Li Shu hid behind the wall and watched his child leave, swallowing the pain in his heart and tears in his eyes.
Mo glanced at the wall uncomfortably every step he took, he thought that Li Shu only sent away the little general, but he didn't want to send out even the intimate maidservant, Li Shu had no intention of coming back alive at all, she had already arranged everything, and now he didn't wonder why Li Shu let him choose by himself.
Because when you reach the border, you will definitely die.
The second day soon came, Li Shu did not let anyone serve her to freshen up, and she did not sleep all night, her face was already yellow, and I don't know how many layers of rouge were used to cover her haggard face.
She was dressed in a female general's uniform with red and golden armor, cut off half of her hair mercilessly, tied a high ponytail with skillful movements, and hurried towards the palace without anyone following.
