Male God No. 17: Remembrance (8)
You guessed it, the thousands of favors are just an illusion. What the Xia family brought to her was not a fortress of safety, but a time bomb. ”
"From the very beginning, we struggled on the chessboard of the Emperor. And what he wants is not a puppet, but the entire Xia family. ”
Mrs. Xia grabbed the handle hard to control her emotions, and endless hatred welled up in her heart.
"But now, she doesn't want to sit still, it's up to us to take a gamble. If you win, my Xia family will be famous through the ages. Lost, a pinch of loess. ”
Prime Minister Xia no longer concealed it, so he almost pronounced the two words softly.
Mrs. Xia's eyes suddenly darkened, and her hands trembled constantly.
"Madame, do you know how many casualties my Xia family has suffered for the sake of this Zuoqiu Jiangshan?"
"Do you know how many heroic souls can't sleep?"
"Do you know how many people are scolding us for aiding and abetting abuse?"
"Do you know that Xia Mu will never be able to have his own flesh and blood?"
"Do you know how many innocent lives the Xia family wants from the one in the Jinluan Palace?"
"Everything is just the so-called merit master, and everything is just because of Xia."
When a series of questions came out one by one, Prime Minister Xia suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and some choices were already destined.
"Master, I have never begged you for anything in my life, but this time I beg you to think again for the sake of my daughter, okay? Once the matter is a foregone conclusion, Xiao Mu, who is in the harem, will be more than lucky. "Mrs. Xia is not afraid of death, but her daughter is still young.
"Do you think this is what I want to do? Madame, we didn't have a choice in the first place. ”
"The emperor doesn't need a relative with Xia as his surname, but he needs a concubine. And now, we also need a concubine who spoils the harem, don't you understand? ”
Mrs. Xia was shocked to find that everything had already exceeded her estimate.
The two stayed up all night.
Early the next morning, Prime Minister Xia was in the study ready to discuss this important matter that might lose his head at any time.
Prime Minister Xia and his wife looked at each other speechlessly, and sat quietly with serious faces.
Within a quarter of an hour, Xia Xun and Xia Beichen came in front and back, and the atmosphere was awkward.
Xia Xun was also a little puzzled, looked at his father, and then looked at Mrs. Xia's dark eyes, hesitated, and covered the door.
However, Xia Beichen glanced at his brother with some curiosity, noticed the seriousness of the situation, swallowed all the questions back, lowered his head, and was silent.
Prime Minister Xia, who was sitting on the main seat, carefully looked his son up and down.
The eldest Xia Xun is also gentle as jade, giving people a feeling of three autumns, handsome and straight, with a little cold and arrogant bones. Even if he is in a wheelchair, his spine is still straight, and he has the iron bones of a soldier.
The second child, Xia Beichen, has a good face, handsome and chic, and an extraordinary bearing. The eyebrows and eyes are slightly childish, but no one dares to underestimate the exquisite heart.
Prime Minister Xia's frowning brows slowly relaxed, as if he had made up his mind, and sighed lightly, "There are some things that my father didn't want to tell you, but now he has to say it." I just don't know if you two are ready. ”
Xia Xun also carefully observed Prime Minister Xia's eyes, and his mind was also thinking about the possibility quickly. For a long time, I didn't think about it.
However, Xia Beichen carefully considered it for two seconds, chuckled, and took the lead to break the deadlock, "Since it is something that has to be said, father might as well be more refreshing." Anyway, sooner or later, we should know that even if we die, we have to die to understand. ”
Seeing Xia Beichen like this, Xia Cheng's previous hesitation was attenuated by two points, and he went straight to the point, "How much do you know about the situation of my Xia family?" ”
"Now there are emperors who are suspicious, and there are colleagues who are calculating. I discussed it with Xiao Mu, and the Xia family decided to do the opposite. ”
In the previous sentence, the Xia brothers were still speculating. As soon as the latter sentence came out, the two of them were instantly stunned in place, with a look of disbelief.
Xia Xun also reacted for a long time, and then he realized the meaning behind Prime Minister Xia's words, and instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
And Xia Beichen was not much better, his whole person's expression was not very good, and he couldn't stand on his feet and took two steps back.
In the entire study, only Mrs. Xia still maintained her composure on the surface, at least her eyes did not hesitate at all.
"Sister, she ......" Xia Xun also couldn't believe that his former well-behaved and weak sister would become so bold.
Although the whole process, Prime Minister Xia participated in the whole process.
Looking at Xia Xunyi's disbelief, Mrs. Xia's tears that had been holding slowly left her face.
She, the daughter who grew up pampered in her hands, went through how many cruel blows she went through to become so ruthless.
Mrs. Xia couldn't imagine how heartbroken Xia Mu was at the moment when she knew that she had lost the right to be a mother for the rest of her life.
Even a man didn't have the courage to make a choice, but she did.
Looking at his mother's grief-stricken face, all kinds of overlooked details resurfaced in front of his eyes.
He finally believed that his father, who had been loyal to the monarch and served the country all his life, finally got cold and decided to do the opposite.
In fact, as early as Xia Chu, when he was paralyzed, he hated it.
Over the years, when the Xia family's side branch had been killed and injured countless times due to accidents, he had doubts.
But there is no revenge, but there is no power or power. There is no military power, and there are no available people, and it is difficult for him to move an inch in the summer.
Not to mention that there is also a loyal Prime Minister Xia Cheng above, and before he could say something, he gave up by himself.
Now, Prime Minister Xia Cheng has finally figured it out, and a ray of light flashed in Xia Xun's eyebrows.
"But Xiao Mu ......" Xia Beichen glanced at Prime Minister Xia and said worriedly.
If everything really develops according to his father's plan, then Xia Mu's existence will become a chess piece that restricts them, and there is a possibility of danger at any time.
"You don't have to worry about this, Xiao Mu has his own plans."
"Her existence, although it has become the existence of Zuoqiu Wenle to restrict our actions. But on the other hand, at the same time, she has become our eyes. ”
"Now, it's not that our Xia family needs this concubine Niangniang, but that the concubine Niangniang must come from the Xia family."
"And as long as the Xia family doesn't fall, she will be safe for a day."
"The most important thing is that you have to believe in Xiao Mu, she will never harm us."
Xia Mu was no longer the Jiaojiao lady who was spoiled by them at that time.
Now she is more like a phoenix soaring above the nine heavens, with the momentum of soaring into the sky and the courage to kill with one blow.
An anecdote of rebellion in history began so casually.
No one knows the origin of everything, just a favorite concubine in the harem.
Zuoqiu Wenle would never have dreamed that all cause and effect came from his cruelty.
Even if he knew that Xia Mu was not afraid, one day, he would have to feel the despair of the original owner.
Losing the country is just the beginning.
None of the executioners in the harem escaped God's judgment.
