Chapter 223

The mountain people have their own tricks

As soon as the two arrived at the gate of the palace, they were stopped by the guards.

"Miss Song, Chu Shizi, please go back, the emperor said that he won't see the two of you!"

Listening to the guard's words, Song Li was almost angry.

What is Emperor Xuan's idea at this time?

"What else did he say?"

In a hurry, Song Li forgot his honorific title and directly used him to call Emperor Tianxuan.

"The emperor said, you have to accept this holy decree, and if you don't accept it, you have to accept it, and when you take the holy decree, come here."

The guards were neither humble nor arrogant, repeating Emperor Tianxuan's original words.

Song Li took a deep breath, suppressed the urge to hit someone in his heart, and left the gate of the palace with a dark face.

Emperor Tianxuan will really embarrass her!

But how could it be possible for her to accept her fate, she didn't believe in this evil!

Back in the Guogong Mansion, the mansion was already in chaos.

The old lady Song Zhang and Song Huaijin and the people in the courtyard all lived and sat in the main hall worriedly.

learned that Song Li was back, so he hurriedly asked Song Li to come over.

Also returning with Song Li was Chu Rong.

The atmosphere in the main hall was unusually solemn, and all of them looked calm.

"Li'er, will you accept this holy decree?"

Seeing the two of them coming in, the old lady hurriedly stood up with the armrest of the chair and asked anxiously.

Song Li walked to the Taishi chair and sat down, shook his head slowly, and said in a firm tone: "No." ”

As soon as the words came out, not only the old lady, but even Song Zhang was in a hurry.

"Resisting the decree is a big crime of killing the head, you have to think clearly!"

Song Zhang stood up from the chair in surprise by Song Li's words, and said with a worried face.

"Eldest Miss, this disrespect is serious, but it will bring disaster to the whole family, you have to think twice before acting, besides, the concubine looks at that Gu Shaoqing is also good-looking, and she is still the only son of the eldest princess, what are you not satisfied with?"

As soon as Song Zhang's words fell, Gu, who had always been favored, continued slowly.

"Shut up!"

"There's no place for you to talk here!"

Song Li and Song Huaijin said in unison at the same time.

Gu's face, her face was blue and white, she glanced at Song Li and Song Huaijin hatefully, and wanted to say it unwillingly, but after thinking about it, one of them was Miss Yan and the eldest son, and the weight of the house was very important, not comparable to her concubine, so she couldn't help but shut her mouth again.

"Do you like you to get married?"

Looking at Gu's appearance, Song Li only felt disgusted, so he scolded mercilessly.

Gu thought about it, that is the only son of the eldest princess, the nephew of Emperor Tianxuan, there is only this one person in the world, what kind of glory it is to marry him, but she is now old and decrepit, not to mention, she is still married as a concubine, there is no chance at all.

She thought secretly in her heart, unaware that she had crashed into the muzzle of Song Li's angry gun.

"I really don't believe that the old emperor can kill me."

Seeing that Gu didn't speak, Song Li didn't bother to guess her thoughts, and said in a cold tone.

"What did you say, kid!" Song Li's attitude made the old lady a little annoyed, "People are saints, do you understand the truth that the monarch wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die?" ”

"Then my grandmother can't bear to see me marry someone I don't like, and I won't be happy for the rest of my life?"

The old lady is telling the truth, in this foul-smelling ancient feudal thought, the king is the sky, and the emperor represents everything and is in charge of everyone's power of life and death.

Her lips squirmed slightly, and finally she chose to swallow those rebellious words, and asked coquettishly.

The old lady was asked by Song Li for a while, and she didn't know how to answer.

Song Li has been by her side since she was a child, how can she be willing to watch Song Li marry someone she doesn't love and live a boring life.

But what can I do if this decree is issued?

"But the decree has been issued!"

The old lady sighed heavily, sat down on the chair, and said helplessly.

"There will be a way!"

A hint of calculation flashed in Song Li's eyes, and he was silent for a while and said slowly, his words full of certainty.

"What can you do?"

Song Huaijin, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, looking at her with an inquiring expression.

Song Li didn't speak, and a grim smile rose at the corner of his mouth.

If the old emperor doesn't see her, he will always see Gu Shaoqing, right?

She will always ask Gu Shaoqing to find the old emperor to take back his fate!

"Li'er, Gu Xiaozi's affection for you, grandmother has always seen it in her eyes, why don't you hate him if you don't ......"

tried to accept him, but looking at the other side facing Chu Rong, she couldn't say anything about the second half of the sentence.

Chu Rong is also a good one, these two people are put together, she really doesn't know who to choose.

"Not hating is not the same thing as liking it, Gu Shaoqing is naturally good, but I don't like him, this cannot be changed."

Seeing that the old lady still did not give up persuading her, she shook her head helplessly and explained with a good temper.

"I respect Li'er's decision, feelings are her business, and she has a sense of proportion." Song Huaijin nodded, said a word to the old lady, and then turned his head to look at Song Li's preaching and continued: "As soon as you come back, I will let you stay away from him, you don't listen, now it's okay." ”

remembered that when she first returned home, Song Huaijin let her and Gu Shaoqing communicate like a thief, she felt funny, if she had known that she would fall into such a situation now, she should have listened to Song Huaijin and stayed away from him.

But it's too late to say anything now.

"It's time to respect the eldest lady's decision, but now that the holy decree has been issued, you can't joke with the lives of the family......"

Gu Shi glanced at Song Li again, buried his head deeply, and said in a low voice.

Her voice was small, but everyone could hear it clearly.

"Who said they were going to cut off your head? Did the emperor tell you? ”

Seeing that the Gu clan was still holding on to this, Song Li snorted coldly angrily.

She had already said just now that she would not accept the holy decree, but Emperor Tianxuan didn't do anything to her, he just didn't see her, and it was clear that he wanted to wait for her to compromise.

"The emperor didn't say it, but you ...... resisted the decree"

Gu still wanted to speak, but Song Li didn't give her a chance to speak at all, snorted coldly, and directly interrupted her.

"What's wrong with my resistance? If you are really afraid of being implicated, I will let my father divorce you, and give you back your freedom? That way you don't have to worry about getting involved! ”

Song Li's words suddenly made Gu's heart chuckle, and he didn't dare to say a word.

With Song Li's style of acting, no matter what she says, it is estimated that Song Zhang will really let Song Zhang take a break from her.

The matter of the Holy Decree has not yet reached the point of killing the head, and she doesn't want to lose the glorious and rich life of the Guogong Mansion like this.

Gu Shi did not speak, and the main hall fell silent again.

"Grandmother, come with me, I have something to tell you."

After a while, Song Li glanced up at the old lady.

Although he didn't know what Song Li was going to say, he had to go with her, but he still stood up.

The two walked into the cabinet, and Song Li underestimated a few words beside the old lady, and saw that the old lady's face showed a little shock.

"This is a bully!"

The old lady looked at Song Li, a moment of darkness flashed in her cloudy eyes, and she whispered.

"It's just one of my options, it all depends on whether my grandmother is willing to help, and if my grandmother doesn't want to, I won't force it."

Looking at the old lady's appearance, Song Li smiled lightly and said easily.

Her ease was not pretended, but she firmly believed that the old lady would definitely help her.

Sure enough, the old lady was silent for a while and then nodded, "You girl has a lot of ideas, did you already know that there would be today, so you said that early to leave yourself a way back?" ”

Song Li smiled and shook his head, "It's really not, but who would have thought that a joke at the beginning would actually work now." ”

The old lady glanced at Song Li and sighed leisurely.

Seeing that the old lady was relieved to agree, Song Li did not waste any more time.

After leaving the main hall, Su Decai came again, and the same decree was read, but Song Li still did not accept the decree.

"Miss Song, the emperor said that from today onwards, the old slave will come to read the decree three times a day until you agree to accept it."

Listening to Su Decai's words with a smile, the corners of Song Li's mouth twitched, Emperor Tianxuan's move was really bad.

After reading the holy decree, Su Decai did not bother Song Li and left the Guogong Mansion again.

So there was Su Decai who came to the Guogong Mansion with people to read the holy decree at three points in the morning, noon and evening, and left with a mighty hand after reading it.

There was a lot of talk in the city.

Many people stepped on the gate of the Lai Guogong Mansion to watch.

Two days later, the news of the old lady's serious illness spread throughout the capital.

There are even rumors that Song Li's eight characters are too hard, and he clashes with Gu Shaoqing of the Eldest Princess's Mansion, and he is restrained by the people around him.

The day the two got married was when the old lady died of illness.

This rumor seemed to be fueled by someone, and it spread all over the streets and alleys of the capital in just one day, and even some people in the palace said it.

When Emperor Tianxuan heard this rumor, he directly smashed a teacup angrily.

"There are so many ideas for this glorious ghost!"

After smashing the cup, he leaned back on the Taishi chair and raised his hand to rub his temples, gritting his teeth and scolding.

The palace people in the imperial study all lowered their heads, and they didn't dare to breathe.

Su Decai stood beside Emperor Tianxuan, his face was a little embarrassed, "Your Majesty, what about today's holy ......decree?"

"Go on, when you go, bring a few imperial doctors to check the old lady's pulse, I want to see how long this glorious ghost idea can last!"

Emperor Tianxuan waved his hand impatiently, interrupted Su Decai's words, and said with a sneer.

Su Decai nodded, and it was just time to read the holy decree, and Shangtai Hospital selected a few experienced imperial doctors and left the palace.

The group rushed to the Guogong Mansion in a hurry.

After reading the holy decree, Su De proposed to ask the imperial doctor to check the old lady's pulse, and Song Li nodded and agreed without hesitation.

Looking at Song Li's heartbroken appearance, Su Decai's eyes flashed for a moment, and for a while, he couldn't tell whether this old lady was really sick or fake.

Pretending to be sick to deceive the emperor is a big crime of killing the head, the old lady should not be confused about the severity and follow the nonsense.

He thought about it, and walked towards the old lady's courtyard with the imperial doctor.

When the group came to the old lady's yard, they smelled a strong smell of Chinese medicine as soon as they entered the courtyard.

Several imperial physicians carefully distinguished the fragrance of the medicine, you look at me, I look at you, and finally introduced an elderly imperial physician to check the pulse of the old lady.

Looking at the imperial doctor's hand on the old lady's pulse, an imperceptible sneer flashed at the corner of Song Li's mouth.
