Chapter 86: Intercession
Yue Li looked at Concubine Xi calmly, she really couldn't bear it, if it weren't for the fact that she had something at hand now, she wouldn't want to send Xia back. "Niangniang, it's not that I'm unreasonable, it's really my father's decree. If it is disobeying, then what will I do if I am blamed by my father at that time? ”
"Your Highness, here are some of my thoughts, not respect, you just let me take a look at the child." After speaking, Concubine Xi asked Yu Mian behind her to hold a delicate box, and Yu Mian opened it carefully, and it turned out to be a green gem inside.
"This is the emerald that His Majesty gave me before, and it is said to be from the Western Regions, and it is very precious."
Xi Guifei's meaning is already obvious, she wants to bribe her and let her relax, Yue Li is not a fool, Xi Guifei's thing is to borrow her ten guts, she doesn't dare to ask for it. She waved her hand and asked the concubine not to do this, "You just give me your whole person, as long as there is no will of my father, I still can't let you see it." But don't worry, it won't be long before your father will forgive you, and I will send the child back to you. ”
Where did Concubine Xi believe what Yue Li said, "Your Highness, don't laugh with me, Your Majesty is on fire this time, and there is no way to extinguish the fire without ten days and half a month." ”
"Maybe he will be able to extinguish the fire soon, you take back the gem first, and then go back, I will take Xi'er to His Majesty in the afternoon to find out, if you can, let my father take back his fate." Yue Li said sincerely, not like a deception.
Can this woman be so kind? Concubine Xi was shocked by Yue Li's behavior, she would actually plead for herself? Give the child back to yourself? There's no fraud in this, right?
Xu Shixi's face changed too obviously, allowing Yue Li to see a hint of clues, "Concubine Niangniang, don't worry, I have always been true to my word, you don't have to worry about me not keeping my promise." This child stayed with me and didn't stay with his mother after all. Yue Li said comfortingly.
Concubine Xi was ecstatic in her heart, this time she didn't make much effort to let the child return to her side, it seemed that God was helping her, "Your Highness, thank you so much, thank you so much." Concubine Xi thanked Yue Li, but she didn't feel that Yue Li had the credit for this matter.
"Thank you, I don't need it, it's all a gesture, my mother has helped me so much before, don't I have to repay the favor?" Yue Li said with a smile. On the contrary, he was suspicious of what Xi Guifei said. This woman seems to be talking back, he can't really have any purpose.
But it's important to get the baby back first. When the time comes for the child to get it back, it will not hurt her to tear her face.
Concubine Xi was persuaded by Yue Li to go back. Yue Li was also a little tired. "Panxiang, you go out first."
Panxiang knew that her master was going to take a nap. "Yes, Your Highness."
The palace is the largest place in the world, and there are many dark corners that are not well known, so it is extremely convenient to do bad things.
At this time, Jin Shi stood in an inconspicuous corner, and his face was a slap print, which was red and swollen. "Presumptuous! He lost his temper with Her Royal Highness the Princess. Who told you to talk back to her? ”
Across from him stood a man who looked exactly like him. Jin Shi covered his face and looked panicked. "My lord, I was wrong, my lord."
"I just sent you to take care of the princess, and you poked me such a big basket just a few days after I left. If it weren't for the disguise, you would have been discovered by the princess. ”
"Master, spare your life, master." It's exactly the same as the brocade time, no, he's the original brocade time. And the Jin Shi in Jing'an Palace is a stand-in with a human skin mask that he found.
"If you feel that this errand is wronged, you can tell your boss that I will change people. But if you dare to poke me in any more baskets, don't blame me for being rude. ”
The stand-in lowered his head, not daring to take another look at Jinshi. He couldn't figure it out, why would a father-in-law in the palace spend a lot of money to buy himself another stand-in?
"Remember?" Jin Shi saw that the stand-in was distracted and a little unhappy.
"Remembered, remembered. Don't worry, master, I will take good care of the princess. The stand-in hurriedly came back to his senses.
"That's pretty much it." Jin Shi was not looking at the stand-in, and a man in black appeared around him again.
"Sect Master, the subordinates have heard that the princess is now thinking about sending the child back." The man in black was even familiar with the movements of Jing'an Palace.
"She's going to send the baby back?"
"Yes, Concubine Xi went to Jing'an Palace just now, and the two discussed it, Yue Li said that she would take Xi'er to the imperial study to intercede."
It hasn't been a day since Jing'an Palace's every move pierced back into the ears of the others, "And she also made a deal with the prince." : Help the prince, and then the condition is half a black gold mine. ”
Why is she in such a hurry now? Jin Shi also began to wonder, this is not like a calm princess at all. "Okay, then you can continue to see what is going on, and report back to me." Jin Shi flicked his sleeves and said with his head up.
"Yes, Master." The men in black saluted and went down.
"You, you continue to care about the movements of Jing'an Palace for me, and you have to tell me word for word if there is any trouble."
"Yes, yes," the eunuch was busy kowtowing, although he was wearing exactly the same clothes and appearance as Jinshi, but he lacked a trace of charm and the temperament of Jinshi.
"Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the Princess has come down."
After the two of them finished their lunch break, Yue Li really led Xi'er to the imperial study to see their father.
The emperor was busy on all fours, and he was much haggard these days. He was overjoyed to see his daughter coming. "Sulphur Moon, are you here?"
"See Father." Yue Li finished saluting and put the food on the table. "Father, this is specially prepared for you by my daughter. You taste it. ”
After Yue Li finished speaking, she took out the dishes and chopsticks to eat and laid them out one by one.
"Yo, why are you so attentive today?" The Emperor paused for a moment, sat down and asked.
"Why, my father won't let my daughter come to see you?" Yue Li asked playfully.
"Where, where." The emperor was afraid that his daughter would be angry. "Father said to play, you and Xi'er are here, and my father is very happy."
Seeing that the emperor was happy, Yue Li also wanted to strike while the iron was hot, "Father, my daughter has something to ask her father for help." ”
"You say."
"Father, I want you to send Xi'er back."
The chopsticks that the emperor had just picked up were instantly put down, "No, why do you think so, is it because you dislike Xi'er?" ”
Yue Li saw that his father was unhappy, and hurriedly explained, "No, my father, it's Xi'er who thinks about my mother these days, and I really can't bear to see him so depressed all day long, so I want to come over and beg my father." ”
