Chapter VII: The Divine Decree

didn't fully understand the long and complicated set of official rhetoric, Tao Yao only knew that her father's face was unprecedentedly ugly when he took the bright yellow silk book. Even though he was still smiling, his mother was still gentle and polite, and his brothers were still respectful as usual, but she just knew that everyone was unhappy.

It was the female official Zheng beside Wu Cao who was ordered to come to deliver the decree, and when she saw that the errand was over, she no longer made more greetings, and bowed to King Yong and was about to leave: "The slave maid still has to go to General Gao's Mansion to deliver the decree, so this is the first step." "She is not a fool, and naturally understands how powerful His Majesty the Emperor's will is, and I am afraid that it will be too late for people to explain things, so where is the need for her to join in the fun at this time.

"Then the king won't keep you more." Smiling and bowing his head, Li Shouli motioned to the housekeeper to send Lady Zheng out of the mansion, not realizing that his hand holding the holy decree was already clenched into a fist. The appearance of the green muscles and clear bones silently shows that the owner is not in a calm mood at this time.

"Lord, are we ...... Is it really like this to send the child to the Shendu? The silk handkerchief in his hand was almost unconsciously pulled into a crumpled ball, and Liu saw that the person completely disappeared from view, so he turned his head to look at his husband with sorrowful eyes: "Your Majesty, what is this going to do to us?" ”

Xiao'er is only five years old, although she is well-behaved and wiser, but in the end she is still a little doll who doesn't understand anything. The emperor summoned her to the palace by a holy decree at this time, which was really a strange thing, coupled with the embarrassing position of the Yongwang Mansion, she couldn't help but think about it.

"It's hard to say." The smile on his face had been completely contained, Li Shouli casually handed the holy decree to the attendant on the side and put it away, and looked at his little daughter with helplessness and distress: "Xiao'er, do you understand what the emperor meant?" ”

"Hmm." Nodding, Tao Yao looked up with a childish little face, and replied seriously with a straight look: "His Majesty the Emperor wants to see Xiao'er with his own eyes, so let Yao'er go to Luoyang." As she spoke, she looked at the faces of everyone in the hall, but she blinked, revealing an extremely coquettish smile: "Father, don't worry, the child promises to be obedient, His Majesty the Emperor has a lot, and he will not worry about a small child." ”

She knew that His Majesty the Emperor who lived in the Shendu Palace was the most powerful person in the world, and he could sentence people to life and death with a casual sentence, and he could make people feel frightened with any action, and even the name of his little county lord was rewarded by her decree. Father, mother and brothers, they should be afraid that she will be ignorant and offend the emperor and cause trouble, so they are so uneasy, right?

"...... child" I didn't expect such a young child to know how to comfort his family, Li Shouli sighed lowly, I really don't know whether I should cry or laugh.

Signaling the few maids to stand down, Li Chenghong took a few steps forward to support Liu, who was almost unsteady on his feet, and calmly spoke to his father: "Father, according to the will, I am afraid that the child should leave immediately, do we need to arrange it?" "Even if you can't follow it on the surface, at least you have to send someone to escort you secretly.

After all, King Yong's family is the last bloodline of Prince Zhang Huai, because of the events of the year, no one thinks that this family will have nothing to do with rebellion, under such a preconceived impression, Luoyang is undoubtedly equivalent to Longtan Tiger's Den for them. And knowing that it was such a sinister situation, he had to happily send his sister over, this kind of torment is completely beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Waving his hand, Li Shouli's expression became more and more helpless: "You can't act rashly." The emperor's eyeliner is all over the world, if even our small Yongwang Mansion can do it so easily under her nose, do you think she can still stay in that position until now? ”

After many years of claustrophobic deep palace, his understanding of Wu Cao's methods has risen to a whole new level, and that woman will never allow anyone to question her. At this time, her purpose of letting Yao'er enter the palace is not clear, if they rashly speculate and take action, once she detects, then Yao'er will really have no return. He only has this one daughter, and he doesn't dare to risk her life so much.

"What my father said is very true." Nodding, Li Chengning obviously thought deeper: "I think the emperor's move is more to test us, and he will not take any substantive measures against Xiao'er." Otherwise, she could have directly announced her father's entry into the palace instead of going through such a big effort. ”

"This means that as long as we really send someone to secretly escort us, we just fall into her trap?" His eyebrows were frowning, Li Chenghong was concerned about it, and when he was analyzed by his younger brother, he instantly understood: "The so-called emperor's mental trick is really terrifying." ”

"That'...... Then let Xiao'er go to Luoyang alone?! Seeing that her husband and son came to such a conclusion after analyzing it, Liu couldn't help but be very anxious: "She is still so young, what if something happens?!" I disagree! Absolutely not! "Her daughter was born in October when she was pregnant, no matter whether the emperor was tempting or not, she was reluctant to send her daughter on the road like this! Even if it's his own husband, he can't let go!

And Li Chenghuan, who barely understood on the side, was also anxious, looked at his little sister, and then at his parents who were about to make trouble, and there was nothing he could do for a while, so he scratched his ears and cheeks in a panic, and ran around the house. To be honest, even his two elder brothers, who read poetry and books, can't come up with any decent plan, so what can he do, a master who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun?

"Madame......" understands Liu's psychology, but also feels an incomparably headache for her nonsense, Li Shouli called lightly, and the words that came to his mouth were unspeakable no matter what. Do you want to persuade her to focus on the big picture? However, just for the safety of the house, he sacrificed his precious daughter for so many years, is he still worthy of being a parent?

With such a calculation, Li Shouli felt even more like a knife, his head was bigger than a fight, and he almost wanted to cry when he hugged his daughter in his arms with one hand. "If the prince and princess are relieved, you might as well let the little princess follow me." At this moment, Gao Xianzhi, who had been standing quietly and acting as an invisible person, opened his mouth at the right time. Different from the melancholy of the few people present, the young man was dressed in green clothes, warm and unparalleled, and every word he said was calm and calm, as if he had some kind of strange power to calm people's hearts: "If my expectations are good, Lady Zheng went to the General's Mansion to pass on the decree probably to let her father enter Beijing, so it is logical for the little county lord to go to Luoyang with us." Not to mention what His Majesty the Emperor wants, at least there will be a response along the way. ”
