Haruka's eyes flashed.

"Have you really decided?" She asked softly.

"It's decided." King Liang fixed his head, "I used to be too stupid, and I always felt that as long as I got out of their control, it would be fine." But now I realize that after all these years, I have not escaped their control at all, and they are just playing cat and mouse tricks with me! In the early years, I was bullied, because I didn't have the ability to resist. But now, when I have the power to protect my children and cousins, why should I watch them being bullied? ”

Princess Liang also bowed her head slightly. "We were naïve at first."

Haruzhi also breathed lightly. "In that case, then feel free to do so!"

She also found out that it turned out that relying on a queen mother behind her was not safe. Although the Queen Mother can keep one of her, it is impossible for her old man to protect even her children! She has never interfered in government politics, and she has made many exceptions for herself. Then other times, she will definitely still turn a blind eye. For example, this time the emperor gave a decree to the Marquis of Beiming and Pan Yatou to marry.

Haruzhi also slowly lowered his eyes. "We are indeed weak."

Especially in front of the imperial power, she is terrifyingly weak, and the emperor can crush her to death with a finger casually.

This realization made Harueda feel very uncomfortable.

"Thanks to me, I still worked hard for more than 20 years to climb to this position today!" She laughed to herself.

But no matter how sad you are, life still has to go on.

The Emperor has already given marriage, and it is inconvenient for Chunzhi to keep the girl to continue to live in Liangzhou. She asked someone to pack her things for Pan Yatou, and planned to send her back to the capital to prepare for marriage.

But the day before Pan Yatou left, there was a news that reached Chunzhi's ears-

Chai Dong, the deputy envoy of the imperial capital of Yushitai, actually rushed all the way from the capital to Liangzhou, and directly killed the Beiming Marquis's mansion, and beat the Beiming Marquis again!

Poor Beiming Marquis, he was beaten by Chunzhi and King Liang in turn half a month ago. finally healed the wound on his face, and now he was beaten by Chai Dong again.

According to the porter of the Beiming Marquis's mansion: "Chai Yushi was ruthless at all, and when he met, he kicked over, and then pressed the Beiming Marquis to the ground, punched and kicked, and scolded while beating." After beating and scolding for half an hour, he was beaten until his hands and feet were soft and his throat was so dry that he couldn't speak, and then he let Beiminghou go. ”

As for the beating, Chai Dong walked into the Liang Wangfu crookedly.

Pan girl heard the news, and she hurriedly went to see Chai Dong. "Dad must be in a bad mood now, I'm going to accompany him!"

"I'll go with you!" Harueda sighed, "That's right, I also have something to say to him." ”

Pan Ya nodded hurriedly. The mother and daughter simply cleaned up and went to King Liang's mansion.

At this time, Chai Dong was paralyzed in the guest room of King Liang's mansion, and Princess Liang and Princess Liang were waiting by his side.

"Daddy!"

As soon as Pan Ya saw him, she hurriedly pounced.

Chai Dong was originally lying down, but as soon as he heard the sound, he immediately sat up and pulled his daughter to his side.

"Pan girl, how are you doing these days?"

"It's good. Where's Daddy? Why did you suddenly come to the capital? Pan Yatou asked in a low voice of concern.

Chunzhi stood aside, she glanced at Chai Dong, and found that he was only a little messy with his hair and clothes, but there were no signs of injury on his body. So, Bei Minghou was willingly beaten again this time and couldn't fight back? The corners of her lips twitched.

"That person snatched you away behind my back, how could I not come to him to settle accounts when I know the news?" When Chai Dong heard his daughter's question, he was furious again.

"And it's just the first time. I'll have to beat him at least three times, or I won't be able to get rid of my hatred!" ”

"Daddy!" Pan girl was frightened, "Don't be like this! ”

"What, you're starting to feel distressed now?" Chai Dong stood cold, and his words had a bit of a sour vinegar taste.

Chunzhi smelled it, and Pan girl naturally smelled it.

"Dad, what do you say!" Pan Ya's cheeks flushed slightly, "I mean, as an imperial historian, you have always been clean and self-conscious, leading by example." As a result, now, you beat Bei Minghou for no reason, and you have beaten so many times! Those who don't like you in the middle of the court will definitely take the opportunity to attack again. Why do you bother? ”

"As long as you can breathe this breath in your heart, what if they participate in a book? I have a way to justify myself. Chai Dong didn't care.

Pan girl choked.

Harueda nodded secretly. Chai Dong really has this ability.

Merely......

"Alright, you guys go out first, let me have a few words with him." He whispered.

Pan girl looked back at her, and Chunzhi nodded. "I have something to say to him."

Pan Yatou and Liang Wang and his wife both went out.

When they closed the door, there were only two people left in this room, Chunzhi and Chai Dong.

It was only at this time that Chai Dong raised his eyes and sighed faintly: "It's really rare, we meet again." ”

"yes, it's been two years, and we're meeting again." Chunzhi sighed, "However, don't tell me that you only came here to fight the Marquis of Beiming—even, I doubt the real reason why you beat him now." ”

The corners of Chai Dong's lips are slightly hooked.

"I knew that my little trick couldn't hide from your eyes. That's right, this family affair was actually discussed with Beiming Hou a long time ago. Now that I'm fighting him, it's also a plan we've made a long time ago, along with what's going to happen in the future. ”

Haruzhi's heart sank heavily.

"I see. I just said, how did he suddenly become so bold? ”

It turned out that Chai Dong was just bold.

Chai Dong looked at her, and he said in a low voice: "The reason why I didn't tell you about this matter in advance is because I know that you will definitely not agree, so we have to cut it first and then play." But the Queen Mother is already seriously ill, and she can't delay the girl's family affairs. Otherwise, I don't know what will happen soon......"

"What do you say? Is the Queen Mother seriously ill? Haruka snapped, and she interrupted him.

Chai Dong bowed his head. "Yes. Since last winter, the Queen Mother has been coughing constantly, and no matter how much medicine she takes, she has not recovered. I thought it would be better after the beginning of spring, but who knew that she still kept coughing, and her spirit was getting weaker and weaker day by day. Until now, I have been sleeping almost all day and night, and I only have half a bowl for a meal. ”

Harueda's heart tugged.

"Why don't I know any of this?"

"Why do you think that?" Chai Dong asked her rhetorically.

Chunzhi's heart sank again. "On the one hand, she is reluctant to worry me. On the other hand, the emperor must hope that I will continue to do things here with peace of mind. Incidentally...... He also doesn't want me to take advantage of my mother's last time to make any excessive demands on him! ”

If it was the Queen Mother's deathbed request, how could the emperor not do it?

Chai Dong nodded. "Since you know it in your heart, it's the best. Moreover, although the Queen Mother is seriously ill, she has been hanging with medicinal materials now, and it should be able to drag on for a few months. You have to make good use of these months, you know? ”

Chunzhi's solemn chin. "I know. I will definitely live up to my mother's expectations of me. ”

She took a deep breath, and it was easy to convince herself to accept the fact that the Queen Mother was seriously ill, and Chunzhi came back to her senses. "You haven't told me yet, why did you think of marrying Pan Yatou to the Marquis of Beiming?"

"On the one hand, it's because now in the Celestial Empire, there is indeed no more suitable candidate besides him. On the other hand, His Royal Highness the King of Qin was very dissatisfied with the fact that most of the credit for this mutual border trade fell on the crown prince, so someone gave him an idea and asked him to find a way to make friends with the Lang people. In this way, as long as the Lang clan praised the King of Qin in a letter to the emperor, wouldn't he be able to share half of the credit for this border trade? And the idea they gave was to let the King of Qin marry the Lang clan. Chai Dong said slowly.

Harukie quietly clenched her fists again.

"They chose Pan Girl?"

Chai Dong bowed his head. "They did this, first, to avenge my reluctance to let Pan Yatou marry the prince as a side concubine; Second, I also want me to see his ability, he still has the ability to manipulate everything for me! As for the third ...... You are now in Liangzhou, and you have a good relationship with the Lang people, but this relationship is all the prince's. But when Pan Ya marries into the Lang clan, won't you try your best to help Pan Ya? In this way, even if you don't want to, then you can only become the person of King Qin. ”

What a way to kill three birds with one stone!

Chunzhi finally understood why the prince of the Lang clan dared to take the initiative to ask for marriage so boldly that day.

"I see." She took a deep breath and nodded, "Let the Marquis of Beiming personally write a marriage proposal and marry the girl to him, this is indeed a good way to compromise." ”

It's just that it's still a poor girl.

Haruka lowered her eyes, and suddenly noticed a hand caressing her shoulder.
