Chapter 709: Summoned
Xie Chuyao's strength was drained all of a sudden, she sat on the bed with her head down, and said in a low voice, "Shang Jingcheng, otherwise, let's bring the eldest princess in." "She didn't want to cause the two countries to go to war for her own selfish desires.
"No!" Shang Jingcheng looked at her solemnly and said: "Ah Yao, what I said will never be overturned, I said, there will only be one wife for you in this life, I won't marry Yuji, and Jiang He won't marry, it's a big deal that I don't want this throne, but you, I can't let go!" "He knows too well what it means to marry Yu Ji and Jiang He, this woman will not stay by his side anymore.
Xie Chuyao looked up at him, there were already tears in her eyes, she saw that his expression was serious and not like the way she often smiled at herself on weekdays, she unconsciously chuckled, and with this laughter, the tears also fell drop by drop, "Your serious appearance is not good-looking at all." ”
"You don't look good when you're laughing and crying, and you can't see where you're going." Shang Jingcheng finally softened his voice, came to her side, wiped her tears with his hand, and gently hugged her and said, "Yao'er, you can leave these things to me, cooperating with Li Moxuan is not only a disadvantage, at least, he promised me that he would help me remove all the dark web that Liguo left in the Jin Kingdom, and he would also give me the mother Gu to help my father unravel the Gu, so, Yao'er, why don't we relax a little bit?" ”
Xie Chuyao raised his head and looked at him and asked, "So, what does he want?" ”
A person will not just give and not charge, there is no free lunch in the world, and no one will only give you benefits for no reason, especially people like Li Moxuan.
Shang Jingcheng raised his eyes and looked at the window lattice, and only said in a half-loud voice: "He wants Yu Ji, and he wants the entire Liguo!" ”
Xie Chuyao's mouth opened wide in shock, this Li Moxuan was so ambitious, it turned out that his goal at the beginning was not the Jin Kingdom, but the position of the Emperor of the Li Kingdom!
Seeing her expression, Shang Jingcheng couldn't help but chuckle, and put his hand to close her mouth and said, "Okay, okay, men, they are all ambitious, what man doesn't want to sit on the Jinluan Palace?" ”
"But no, he, Li Moxuan's person is too terrible, he can use Gu, the city government is still very deep, if he becomes the emperor, then the next one to break the country is our Jin Kingdom, we can't let him sit in that position." Xie Chuyao's mind is sober up quickly, although the emperor of Liguo is also an ambitious guy, but in general, he is still afraid of the Jin State, otherwise he would not have dragged on for so long and would not dare to be ruthless in attacking the Jin State, and now it seems that the Emperor of Liguo suddenly stretched out his hand to the Jin Kingdom, but I am afraid that there is also a credit to this Li Moxuan.
Shang Jingcheng didn't answer her words, just stared at the black butterfly on the window lattice that was reluctant to leave, and a cold light flashed from his eyes.
Xie Chuyao saw that he didn't speak, so he analyzed for him: "Shang Jingcheng, it's not that I'm worrying about the sky, you look at every step that Li Moxuan has taken since he came to Kyoto, all of this is in his plan, he must have planned all this from the beginning, and the Jin Kingdom will also be in the blueprint he planned!" ”
After seeing Li Moxuan, she couldn't help but worry about this.
Shang Jingcheng patted her lightly on the shoulder and said, "Okay, okay, you are a pregnant person, don't worry about these anymore, this battle must be fought, for so many years, the grievances between Liguo and Jin have been piled up for a long time, and it is good to fight." ”
"You said it lightly, but you know that it is the people who suffer in this fight." She has always been very sad to see too many homeless people at the border, some orphans and elderly people who have lost their homes and have no place to return.
Shang Jingcheng was silent, of course he knew this, but no one could avoid war, after all, there are some things, it's not that they don't want to, they don't want to, it won't happen, in this world, there will always be ambitious people who want to dominate the whole world.
Xie Chuyao leaned on his arms and said in a low voice: "Every time I think of everything on the border, I feel very sad, why are the people always suffering, in fact, they just want to live and work in peace and contentment, and live a safe life, but such a simple wish can't be realized, it's too desolate, and I, just like them, just wish you a worry-free life, not involved in the battlefield, not stained with karmic fire, but even such a simple wish, like them, can not be realized." ”
Shang Jingcheng hugged her tightly, and said softly: "I know, Yao'er, I know, don't worry, I will definitely treat every war carefully, I will definitely live a long time, and I will always be by your side and the child, so, Yao'er, war is not so terrible, if we don't fight, then, there will only be more people homeless, and there will be more cruel things happening, only when we are strong, can we defend our home and country, and can we stay by my Yao'er side for a long time." ”
Xie Chuyao could only listen to his heartbeat quietly, and could no longer refute him, for a long time, until he thought she was asleep, she asked again: "Did you really accompany the eldest princess to dinner yesterday?" ”
Hearing her ask, Shang Jingcheng couldn't help but laugh out loud, nodded her nose and asked, "What?" Jealous? My wife will finally be jealous of her husband, which is a good thing! ”
"Look at what you say, it seems that I don't care about you all along, Shang Jingcheng, you don't know, I care about you, I care so much that as soon as I hear that you are eating with the eldest princess, I want to go over and make trouble immediately!" Xie Chuyao got up from his arms and said with his head raised.
Shang Jingcheng touched her hair, smiled and said, "This is just part of my plan, Yao'er, we agreed before, didn't you say that I should get close to her?" I'm not happy about this approaching you, so why don't I ignore her again? ”
"Hey, don't, I'm not happy, but when I think of the scene where you eat with her, I feel blocked, I'm afraid that you won't be determined, and you won't be able to control your heart when you see a beautiful woman." Xie Chuyao pointed at his heart with his middle finger, but he grabbed it, and lowered his head to kiss her middle finger, which made her blush and pull her finger back.
Xie Chuyao pretended to be angry and glared at him, and said angrily: "You are talking about serious things, this person is not doing anything serious!" ”
"I still have to be serious with my wife, so if I keep being serious, won't our children be unsettled? You see, I'm not serious, so our baby is about to come into this world! Shang Jingcheng said, then lowered his head and lay on her stomach, listening to the heartbeat of the fetus.
Xie Chuyao was amused by his words, this person's crooked reasoning is really incomparable!
The two of them turned to the child from the serious topic just now, guessing whether it was a boy or a girl for a while, and then began to think about naming the child again, and the two of them nested in the bedroom, so that the palace maids who were waiting outside the door couldn't help but laugh when they heard the happy laughter inside.
However, there are some things, and it will always come.
A knock on the door interrupted the laughter inside, and Shang Jingcheng frowned slightly and let people in.
"Five princes, five princesses are auspicious." The person who came was Li Dehai, the eunuch next to the emperor.
"How come Gonggong Li has time to come to this palace today?" As soon as Shang Jingcheng saw him, a bad premonition came up.
Li Dehai owed him a debt and said respectfully: "The five princes, the slaves came to invite the five princesses to come over to the back garden for a gathering at the emperor's behest. ”
"Oh? Is it just Yao'er to go alone? But here's a distinguished guest? Shang Jingcheng and Xie Chuyao glanced at each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes, this emperor had always seen Xie Chuyao in the study or in the Jinluan Palace, which was the first time for her to go to the Imperial Garden.
Li Dehai looked at his eyes and nose and said: "The eldest princess of Liguo and the daughter of Jiang Shangshu have entered the palace, and they are now drinking tea and enjoying flowers with the emperor in the imperial garden. ”
Xie Chuyao listened to Li Dehai's words, his eyes narrowed slightly, does this emperor mean that he wants them to get acquainted with each other first? It seems that he really hasn't changed his mind all along, but he thinks he can accept them this way?
Shang Jingcheng's face became very ugly, he waved his hand and stood up and said, "You go and call back to your father, just say that Yao'er feels unwell, and it is inconvenient to go over and stir up!" ”
Li Dehai's face also became ugly all of a sudden, and he secretly glanced at Shang Jingcheng before saying, "Isn't the fifth prince embarrassed by the old slave?" Now those two nobles are still waiting in the imperial garden, if the old slave goes over alone, I am afraid that the emperor will take the old slave to ask for the crime. ”
"Isn't Gonggong Li afraid of the palace asking for guilt?" Shang Jingcheng's tone was a little angry, and his aura suddenly opened, which frightened Li Dehai so much that his feet were weak, and he knelt on the ground and didn't dare to make a sound.
Xie Chuyao pulled Shang Jingcheng's sleeve and said, "Ah Cheng, don't embarrass Father-in-law Li, I'll let him go." ”
"Yao'er, those two women are not good, you used to only be attacked by them left and right, you are heavy now, you should stay in the palace to recuperate." He wouldn't let those two women hurt her.
Xie Chuyao looked at him and smiled, "Ah Cheng imagined me as a weak woman, don't worry, we're just a woman's house to chat, what can you do left and right, you don't have to fight all the grass and trees, okay?" ”
Shang Jing admitted her like this, and knew that she would not listen to her words and stay in the palace, so she could only sigh and say: "You must not be angry with them, be careful of the child in your belly, and also, take the green beads and the red rose, if there is anything, let her come back and report it." ”
"Got it, got it, it's okay, you don't have to worry." Xie Chuyao gently stroked his arm, then looked at Li Dehai who was kneeling on the ground, "Gonggong Li, get up, and take me over!" ”
