Chapter Seventy-Five: Marriage?
CHAPTER XXXV
Want to give marriage?
Song Li stared at Emperor Tianxuan, only to see that he had a calm face and saw his emotions.
"Take her down, torture her, and ask the person who instructed her!"
Emperor Tianxuan played with the token in his hand, and a little coldness appeared between his eyebrows, and he said calmly.
"Yes! Emperor! ”
I saw several men wearing dragon scale brocade clothes walking in, with the same pace, the momentum was calm and impressive, and the blood gave people a sense of oppressive danger.
Song Li's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the person who came, his heart was slightly shocked, the penal army has always only heard of his name and not seen his person, such as today Emperor Xuan openly let the penal army show up in front of her, aren't you afraid that she will leak the relevant news of the penal army?
Is it to deter her and make her stop this in her stomach or what is the intention?
She looked at Emperor Tianxuan, her eyes dimmed slightly, and she pursed her lips and listened to the punishment army behind her covering the dragonfly's mouth and taking it away.
Emperor Tianxuan looked as if he hadn't seen her expression, and he lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.
Song Li waited quietly on the side, his heart surging a little.
"Song Li, you are very smart and skillful."
After a long while, Emperor Tianxuan suddenly spoke.
Song Li raised his head, but broke into a dark and boundless deep pool, and an invisible coercion swept towards her in an instant, Emperor Tianxuan was worthy of being a generation of emperors, and the kind of powerful momentum on his body made people fearful.
She hurriedly looked away, bent down modestly and said, "The courtiers don't dare." ”
Emperor Tianxuan's gaze fell on her upright back, and she instantly felt like a pinprick in a pin, restless.
"If you were a man, I would definitely give you an official rank, but it's a pity that you are a woman......" Emperor Tianxuan's tone was a little disappointed.
Song Li hung his head, his brows were not slightly furrowed, and he was a little unsure of what Emperor Xuan meant by the day.
She was silent for a moment, pretending to be afraid, and said, "The courtiers are afraid. ”
Emperor Tianxuan continued to be silent, but his gaze kept falling on Song Li's back, making Song Li a little unsure of what he meant.
"You were arrogant and arrogant when you were a child, unreasonable, and you clashed with Li Shao as soon as you came back after eight years of leaving Beijing, plus you broke your sister-in-law as soon as you came back, and took advantage of Song Qing's favor to take the power of your aunt's family, I thought your nature was difficult to change, who would have thought ......"
Emperor Tianxuan said slowly, his tone could not hear any emotion.
"In just half a month, you have made me so impressed, calm, not arrogant, intelligent, patient and arrogant, stubborn and difficult to teach, which is the real you?"
As he spoke, a chill appeared in his eyes.
A layer of cold sweat instantly broke out behind Song Li's back.
She hung her head, her eyes kept changing, and she was about to answer, but Emperor Tianxuan took a step ahead of her and continued: "You are very smart, you can calculate the city, if you are a man, you will definitely shine in the court in the future, but you are a girl." ”
"I'm a little scared, you're too smart, no matter who you marry into, it's a big threat to me......"
"Song Li, do you understand?"
Song Xun continued to worry, and a pair of eyes like a clear spring were like a bottomless pool at this moment.
Emperor Tianxuan was jealous of the Guogong Mansion, and he had already had the idea of uprooting the Guogong Mansion, which knew each other, Emperor Tianxuan wanted to defend the throne of the Chu family, and the Guogong Mansion wanted to protect the honor of the family, and the two stood in different positions, and there was bound to be a stop.
The smarter and better she is now, the more it inspires Emperor Tianxuan's determination to eradicate the Guogong Mansion, and she has been so busy with various things that she has forgotten about it......
"The courtiers understand."
Song Li nodded quickly.
Seeing this, Emperor Tianxuan nodded slowly, his expression changed slightly, and he couldn't see his emotions, "You have been friends with Shaoqing since childhood, what do you think of him?" ”
Song Li looked up at Emperor Tianxuan, not understanding what he meant by mentioning Gu Shaoqing at this time, she pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Gu Shaoqing is naturally good, on the surface he looks squishy and domineering, but in fact, he is delicate, responsible and responsible......"
"Well, you're almost seventeen now, aren't you?"
Emperor Tianxuan snorted and asked softly.
Song Li slowly removed the discoloration in his eyes and slowly lowered his head, "I will be seventeen years old on the eighth day of the first month of next month." ”
She slowly answered Emperor Tianxuan's question, and constantly doubted Emperor Tianxuan's intentions in her heart.
"It's not small." Emperor Tianxuan nodded, his eyes flashed, "I don't know if you have someone you like, if you have one, you might as well tell me, I will marry you." ”
Emperor Tianxuan's words were full of temptation, how could Song Li not hear it.
She pursed her lips, raised her head to the Heavenly Xuan Emperor's meaningful gaze, and smiled: "Thank you for the emperor's concern, but the courtiers have no favorite person at this time, and they have no love for men and women, and they just want to use the skills they have learned to help the prince eliminate dissidents, protect the honor of the family, and let grandmother enjoy her old age in peace." ”
The sincerity in her words is very obvious, but it depends on whether Emperor Tianxuan believes it or not.
Emperor Tianxuan stared at her, a trace of depth flashed in his eyes, and then he laughed, "Not bad, Song Qing gave birth to a good daughter, not losing a man at all!" ”
"If one of my daughters had half as smart and skillful as you, I would be satisfied."
"The emperor praised it falsely, all the princesses are dragons and phoenixes among people, and they are extremely rich, how can they be comparable to courtiers."
Song Li said modestly.
"Song Li, if I say that I want to marry you and Shaoqing, what do you think? So we're a family......"
Emperor Tianxuan's words made Song Xuan suddenly startled, and she looked up at Emperor Tianxuan with shocked eyes, it turned out that Emperor Tianxuan had such an idea for half a day.
Not to mention whether she Gu Shaoqing is willing or not, in terms of her relationship with Gu Shaoqing, lying on the same bed, looking at each other, she can't help but laugh, is it appropriate?
Besides, she was only sixteen years old, and it was indeed too early for her to get married.
Looking at Song Li's expression, Emperor Tianxuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked unexpectedly, "You don't want to?" ”
Song Li nodded, "Your Majesty, I am no different from Gu Shaoqing and my brother, don't make this kind of joke in the future." ”
Emperor Tianxuan looked at Song Li for a moment, and seeing that her expression didn't look like she was lying, he smiled, and his expression suddenly became fierce, "Do you think Shaoqing is not worthy of you?" ”
Seeing that Emperor Tianxuan's face changed instantly, Song Li pursed his lips and quickly said: "The courtiers don't dare, Gu Shaoqing is the son of the eldest princess and the emperor's nephew, and the courtier's humble status is really not worthy of him, and I ask the emperor to stop making fun of the courtiers." ”
"I said you are worthy, you are worthy!" Emperor Tianxuan suddenly raised his voice, "I am the king of a country, I will be honored whoever I want, besides, you are the daughter of the Guogong Mansion, and you are the right person with Shaoqing, how can you not be worthy of it?" ”
Song Li's mouth was a little bitter, she couldn't imagine that Emperor Tianxuan actually had the idea of matching her and Gu Shaoqing.
She pondered for a moment and quickly said, "The emperor doesn't know ...... something."
Seeing her hesitation, Emperor Tianxuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was a little impatient, "What do I not know? ”
Song Li had a wry smile on his face, and pretended to be helpless: "Before the courtiers went down the mountain, the master repeatedly warned the courtiers that now that the White Tiger Star is in her life, if you get married rashly, it will be Kezi Kefu, and at worst, it will harm the family......"
She said with a little pain in her eyes, pretending to be decent.
Emperor Tianxuan looked at her appearance, his eyes sank, obviously not believing what she said, and asked rhetorically, "Is that really the case?" ”
Song Li nodded emphatically, and the pain on his face became a little deeper, "The courtiers didn't dare to deceive the emperor, and when they returned to Beijing, the second aunt and the third aunt mentioned the marriage of the courtiers, and the courtiers didn't want to harm the good people, so they all said, this is not a decent thing, the courtiers were originally going to rot in the stomach, but when the emperor asked, the courtiers had to give it all up." ”
Looking at Song Li's appearance, Emperor Tianxuan couldn't tell the truth of his words for a while, his eyes were as dark as a secluded pool, his thin lips were pursed into a line, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Seeing this, Song Li pretended to be frightened and lowered his head, and a smile quickly appeared in his eyes.
She quietly waited for Emperor Tianxuan's answer, thinking in her heart what she would do if Emperor Tianxuan insisted on marrying her and Gu Shaoqing.
At this time, she didn't know if Emperor Tianxuan's idea of matching her and Gu Shaoqing was true or just a temptation, she couldn't take it lightly, she was just a like-minded friend to Gu Shaoqing from beginning to end, and she was absolutely unwilling to get married.
Her soul is baptized by the new ideas of the 21st century, and it is still difficult for her to accept the ancient matter of three wives and four concubines, and she is unwilling to share the same man with a group of women even if she is lonely.
There are already sixteen beautiful concubines in Gu Shaoqing's mansion, and she doesn't want to live in a life of intrigue and competition for favor all day long.
"It's ...... anyway"
I don't know how long it took, Emperor Tianxuan finally spoke.
Just when she thought that she had dispelled Emperor Tianxuan's thoughts, Emperor Tianxuan suddenly said: "Since it can't be done now, let's wait until you turn nineteen, anyway, it's only a matter of two or three years, I think Shaoqing can wait." ”
She didn't know what to say in an instant, she couldn't dispel Emperor Tianxuan's determination even if she said that.
"Thank you for your kindness."
She pursed her lips and arched her hand.
Anyway, now she still has two or three years to go, so don't panic for the time being.
"Song Li, you can remember what you said today, you have to use your skills to help the prince eliminate dissent, but don't forget, if I find out that you have different intentions, don't blame me for being ruthless and not keeping you!"
Emperor Tianxuan said warningly.
Song Li smiled and nodded solemnly, "The emperor can rest assured, the courtiers' hearts for the prince can be seen by the sun and the moon, and they will do their best to help the prince!" ”
As she spoke, she raised her hand and swore an oath.
Seeing this, Emperor Tianxuan nodded with satisfaction, "I believe in you, you are a smart person, you know how to choose, what the emperor can give to the Guogong Mansion, I can give, and the prince can also give it in the future, it depends on whether your Guogong Mansion can be grasped and grasped!" ”
"The courtiers understand." Song Li nodded, slowly knelt down and kowtowed to Emperor Tianxuan, "Thank you to the emperor, the courtiers and their father and brother will live up to the emperor's trust and the prince's expectations!" ”
Seeing that Song Li was so familiar with current affairs, Emperor Tianxuan stroked his beard with satisfaction, his eyes narrowed into a line, and said lightly: "Then step down, it's been half a month of hard work, it's time to rest." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Song Li slowly got up and exited the imperial study.
