Although He Jingying arranged for Dendrobium to treat Wang Shaoming, she deliberately did not let the imperial doctor go. Wang Shaoming's loss still couldn't be hidden. Early the next morning, he was stabbed to the court.

In fact, it's not that He Jingying and Xiao Lian didn't hide it well enough, they even hid it from Wang Ci, but they didn't hide it from Yushi Fu Jian.

Although Wang Shaoming is the daughter of the palace, the daughter is not an important minister, and she does not have to be brought to the court to tell her what happened. Wang Shaoming was humiliated, if Wang Ci wanted to settle things, he could marry Wang Shaoming far away, or recruit a son-in-law. If you want the thief to subdue the law, you can go to the study to secretly cry with the emperor, and then let Xiao Chen take Yu Linjun to kill all the bandits around the Jingshi.

But Wang Ci has been busy with his own affairs these days, and he hasn't thought of Wang Shaoming at all. It was the letter sent by Zhang's mother to the palace asking Wang Shaoming if he would continue to stay in the Nanjun Palace, but he hadn't had time to open it.

Of course, if he opened the letter, he would not be able to avoid the accident that happened to Wang Shaoming. Because if it had been three days ago, his answer would have been: stay in the Nanjun Palace.

The three holes of the cunning rabbit, his Wang family has a big business, so naturally he will not put all his eggs in a basket of King Jingling. He put Wang Shaoming in the Nanjun Palace, just to prevent King Jingling from losing power one day.

So this day came, and Wang Ci was even congratulating himself for his foresight.

Before entering the court today, Wang Ci was full of ambition, and he had been planning for so long, and all the ministers who should have been bought off had been bought. As long as he makes that suggestion to the emperor today.

Wang Ci played, saying that since he had been canonized as the emperor's grandson, then he should follow the ancestral teachings and find the daughter of the important minister as the grandson's concubine.

The marriage between the retainer and the prince is a double-edged sword. If it is in a peaceful and prosperous era, it will inevitably make people worry about the dictatorship of their relatives. But if it is not long after the founding of the country, the situation is not stable, and it has not yet reached the time when the rabbit is dead and the dog is cooking, and the bird is exhausted, this kind of marriage is very necessary.

Wang Ci arranged very well, and first sent Wang Shaoming to the capital on the grounds of visiting. and then aroused suspicion of He Jingying's identity as a demon girl in Beijing. Even if He Jingying can't plant a demon girl on his head, it can still make the old ministers in the court have reservations about He Jingying's identity.

Moreover, no matter whether He Jingying is a demon girl or not, she is indeed not a concubine. She is He Yan's eldest daughter and only daughter, but she is not a concubine.

As long as there is such a layer of in-law relationship, then what happened to their royal family and the imperial grandson before will be written off, and they will share honor and disgrace in the future.

It's like the relationship with the former prince Xiao Changmao. Although it is not very good, and sometimes it is even a little ugly, but it has never torn its face.

Wang Ci made such perfect preparations, and played to the emperor with an extremely bright mood.

He assumed that after he proposed it, most of the ministers in the court would agree to it, except for a few people who would oppose it. Although the imperial grandson and the concubine have a deep relationship, the ancestral training is the ancestral training, and the rules are the rules.

After Wang Ci went to the table, before Xiao Lian could refute Wang Ci, the imperial historian Fu Jian told Wang Shaoming about his loss of the thief in public.

How did Fu Jian know about this?

This question had just exploded in Xiao Lian's mind, and the hall was fried.

Wang Ci rushed to Xiao Lian with tears in his eyes, and grabbed Xiao Lian's shirt with both hands: "Taisun, what's going on!" ”

Wang Ci looked like he loved his daughter, and the ministers in the palace just pulled the frame at will, anyway, Xiao Lian was two heads higher than Wang Ci. If you want to fight, it's impossible to fight.

Xiao Lian was a little stunned for a while.

Wang Ci burst into tears, tearing Xiao Lian's clothes to the point that the bones were exposed. "Imperial grandson! How can such a disaster happen when a little girl lives in your house? ”

Xiao Lian was so shaken by Wang Ci that he bit his tongue, and only then did he wake up three points from the chaos.

How did Fu Jian know about this matter, it is now impossible to find out for a while.

But Wang Ci's reaction was amusing enough. Hearing that Wang Shaoming had an accident, Wang Ci, who loved his daughter, did not rush out of the hall to see his daughter. If this is interpreted as Wang Ci's attention to the courtesy of kings and ministers, it is reasonable. But he dragged Xiao Lian, an imperial grandson, to expose his collarbone, as if he didn't care too much about these monarchs and courtiers.

Moreover, Wang Ci's beloved woman was so much that her eyes were split, but she did not ask if her life was safe, where she was now, and how many injuries she had suffered. On the contrary, he has been asking Xiao Lian to give an explanation. Does it mean that Lai Shangxiao has practiced?

Wang Ciji changed so quickly, Xiao Lian was not surprised. What is surprising is that Wang Ci is so ruthless? Wang Shaoming is already an unclean body, and he can't be a concubine, so what Wang Ci means now is to retreat to the next best and be a side concubine?

Xiao Lian didn't know what expression to do to face Wang Ci, looking at Wang Ci's wonderful face, he was even more disgusted in his heart.

Wang Ci saw that Xiao Lian didn't say a word, and he couldn't even see the waves on his face, and his heart was extremely frustrated and desperate. He let go of Xiao Lian and collapsed directly on the main hall, crying about how he raised his beloved daughter with hard work, and how he held this concubine in his hand as a pearl in his palm.

The wrinkling posture is even more powerful than the woman in the vegetable field who plays tricks with the vegetable stall owner because of the lack of catties and two pounds.

It is difficult for a Qing official to decide family affairs, and the emperor has no way at all except to let Xiao Chen thoroughly investigate the matter and arrest the thief.

The ministers of the palace are all a group of capable people who are kind to the mud, thinking about it, the ministers and I are talking about it, as if they have discussed the most reasonable way. Since Wang Shaoming happened in the Nanjun Palace, the natural responsibility should be Xiao Lian. Although he is already an unclean body, there are many people who marry a Qinglou woman and make a concubine, which is nothing. In addition, Wang Shaoming is the daughter of the Wang family, and he Jingying is on an equal footing as a side concubine, which can be regarded as a consolation of the Wang family.

In this farce, Xiao Lian is like a not very auspicious mascot in the main hall, and even the emperor is not ready to ask him for his opinion.

Just when the emperor was about to speak. Xiao Lian said loudly: "Minister, you can't marry Miss Wang." ”

There was an embarrassment in the hall.

It is indeed difficult for a strong man to let an imperial grandson marry an unclean woman.

Li Yun, the head of the household, coughed lightly, and kindly reminded: "Your Royal Highness, it's not to marry, it's to accept." ”

Seeing that Xiao Lian didn't say a word, Li Yun didn't seem to be ready to answer him, hesitated for a long time, and reminded again at the risk of offending Wang Ci: "Your Royal Highness, it's a side concubine, it's ...... Concubine ......"

Xiao Lian looked at him coldly: "There is a lady in this palace." ”

As soon as these words came out, it didn't seem like Xiao Lian and his wife raised their eyebrows together, but it made people think that Xiao Lian was a scumbag who evaded responsibility.

Sure enough, Wang Ci got up from the ground with red eyes, looked at Xiao Lian and said, "Doesn't the grandson care about the little girl?" ”

Xiao Lian was annoyed that Wang Ci was ruthless, and said mercilessly: "Lord Wang, you mistook Miss Wang for a while, do you want to mistake Miss Wang for a lifetime?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the palace even more believed that Xiao Lian was a scumbag who evaded responsibility, and even the emperor couldn't help frowning slightly.

Xiao Lian's words were heard by everyone, which was to accuse Wang Ci of taking Wang Shaoming to Beijing, and to put him in the guest residence of the Nanjun Palace. Although Wang Ci is away all the year round, this time he returned to Beijing on the emperor's birthday. But his Wang Ci's house in Beijing, even if it is empty, is it still a house?

Xiao Lian didn't give the ministers time to sigh, and continued: "Miss Wang had an accident for a while, and you, as a father, should find a lover for Miss Wang." Miss Wang has a gentle personality and amazing talents, and there will always be people who really love Miss Wang who are willing to stay with her. ”

As soon as these words came out, together with the old ministers in the palace who were approaching their old age and had long been thinking about their children, they all laughed. Does Xiao Lian look down on men in the world or do he think that the Wang family is all selling mallets?

A woman's innocence is damaged, and the children of the scholar clan will definitely not marry such a person. It is impossible for the Wang family to marry their daughter casually to an ordinary family as a concubine, so how much more do you slap yourself in the face? Do you want to marry a stepfamily who died in the main house?

Furthermore, what does it mean to be in love? The woman's mind is the most difficult to guess, if it is a dog slaughterer, the Wang family will not be able to marry?

Everyone in the palace just thought it was funny, but no one retorted. This sentence really has to be refuted, any sentence will carry the meaning that the daughter of the Wang family is worthless, and no one wants to offend Wang Ci. So in addition to a few mocking snorts, there was also inexplicable embarrassment in the entire hall.

Xiao Lian did not go through his brain much when he said this, on the one hand, in his own life experience, there was no parental matchmaker, even if it was a political marriage between the two families, it could not be forced, it was still necessary to talk about your love and my willingness. On the other hand, for the sake of Wang Shaoming, this accident is already a shame for other girls, will it hurt others for a lifetime?

Wang Ci cried in front of the palace and almost fainted. For this matter, the emperor is also embarrassed. The person who sent Wang Shaoming to the Nanjun Wangfu for temporary residence must also be counted as one. At the beginning, it was indeed the idea of letting Wang Shaoming replace He Jingying as the princess of Nanjun. Just like many years ago, he asked the crown prince to marry Wang Baoming. Although he doesn't like the Wang family now, nearly half of the annual taxes in the treasury are paid by the Wang family, so he has to continue to rely on the rod.

The emperor's eyes swept over Xiao Lian, and there was almost a threat in his eyes: "Taisun, you are presumptuous." ”

Xiao Lian's throat choked. The emperor's eyes clearly contained a warning.

The matter of sending Wang Shaoming to live in the Nanjun Palace, although Wang Ci mentioned it, it was also acquiesced by the emperor. Since they all had such thoughts in mind, now letting Wang Shaoming marry Xiao Lian as a side concubine is indeed the only solution.

In this situation, if Xiao Lian refutes again, it will be light to be punished by the emperor for thinking about it behind closed doors. Seriously...... Xiao Lian didn't dare to think about it. The bowl of bird's nest given to He Jingying that should be wrongly poisoned by Yan Xiaodao, Xiao Lian still remembers it clearly. If Xiao Lian refuted it again, the emperor dared to give another bowl in front of him.

But since Xiao Lian saw He Jingying, he identified He Jingying as a person. Maybe it's because in the dark, after he was shot and crashed into the underworld and crawled out again, the person he saw was He Jingying.

But this explanation is actually very far-fetched, because if he crawled out and came to this world and saw a fat tiger for the first time, he was sure that he would not have such an idea. Of course, even if it was Ma Cheng at first sight, he would never go to the base.

But feelings are like this, they are groundless in the first place, and if they have to explain it, it can only be explained that the dopamine in his mind is more durable. Although He Jingying is still a little alienated from him now, he thinks that as long as he is sincere, one day she will be his real daughter-in-law.

Love makes people blind and become stupid because sometimes they can't control their impulses and do things that seem extremely stupid to others. For example, now, Xiao Lian is under the pressure of the emperor's Qianjun, and he knelt down on one knee with a "bang". He looked directly at the emperor and said firmly: "Your Majesty, the minister is only willing to be white with his wife." ”

The emperor looked at Xiao Lian, who had a stupid word written on his face, and was so angry that his liver hurt, and he even doubted that Xiao Lian's intention to be the emperor's grandson was a little confused on impulse. He looked at Xiao Lian's eyes becoming more and more gloomy, and only after a while did he speak: "This matter is not ......."

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do."

Outside the hall, Xiao Zhaowen walked up against the light. His voice was hoarse, and if he didn't look back, just listening to the voice of the voice, he couldn't tell that it wasn't anyone who was talking.

The emperor looked up at Xiao Zhaowen, a little puzzled: "King Xin'an, aren't you sick and taking leave?" ”

Xiao Zhaowen didn't answer, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to do." ”

The emperor frowned slightly, and looked back and forth at Xiao Zhaowen and Xiao Lian's faces.

These two brothers are like they forgot to take their medicine today.

The emperor slightly restrained his displeasure: "Say." ”

Xiao Zhaowen knelt down on one knee: "The daughter of the minister and Taichang Wang Ci are in love and promise each other for life." The minister begged the emperor for marriage. ”

After Xiao Zhaowen finished speaking, all the ministers in the palace had the expressions of eggs stuffed in their mouths.

Hit it off?

Promise each other for life?

This young and vigorous King Xin'an, does he know about Wang Shaoming's loss of the thief?

Wang Ci was also so shocked that he couldn't speak, how could he not know that his daughter had a ...... with this Xin'an King Personal relationship?

The emperor raised his eyebrows: "Ji Shang, what you said is true?" ”

Xiao Zhaowen lowered his eyes and replied firmly: "Yes, ask the emperor for marriage." ”

The emperor looked at Wang Ci inquiringly.

Wang Ci's mouth opened and closed. Although Xiao Zhaowen is the prince, he has not done much. If in the past, Wang Ci would not look down on this unknown prince. Because Wang Shaoming is the only concubine among the school-age women of the Wang family.

If it weren't for the fact that King Jingling and King Anlu had already been married, and the family behind their wives was also a landowner, Wang Ci would have chosen these two princes to touch porcelain.

So at least before Xiao Lian canonized the grandson, in Wang Ci's opinion, Xiao Lian was the next choice. Not to mention Xiao Zhaowen, in Wang Ci's opinion, it is simply the next choice.

But as soon as things changed suddenly, even if Wang Ci was unwilling, he had to admit that Xiao Zhaowen was already a golden beetle son-in-law.

Wang Citie's face was blue, his eyes turned three times on the golden beetle son-in-law, and finally turned his head to the emperor and said, "Since this is the wish of the beloved daughter, the old minister begs the emperor to fulfill it." ”

Finally, this tragedy has a happy ending. The emperor's face finally eased, and he ordered the marriage, and held a wedding ceremony on the same day as Xiao Zilun.

Xiao Lian walked out of the Jinluan Hall and saw Wang Ci talking to Xiao Zhaowen with his back to him. It's nothing more than a set of almost polite words. Xiao Zhaowen replied expressionlessly, and Wang Ci took his leave.

As soon as Xiao Lian walked to Xiao Zhaowen's side, he heard Xiao Zhaowen laugh coldly: "If it weren't for Lord Wang's reaction in the main hall that he was really frightened, I would have thought that it was his father's subordinate." ”

Xiao Lian asked, "What did he say?" ”

Xiao Zhaowen's eyes were still bloodshot, and he shook his head and said: "He said that Miss Wang was frightened by this, and he hoped that I could take care of it more, and he would pick up Miss Wang back at the mansion one day." It's really not like a father at all. ”

Xiao Lian smiled coldly: "People's hearts are used to calculate, so what about extra thoughts?" ”

Xiao Zhaowen looked back at Xiao Lian: "Do you know who it is?" ”

Xiao Lian frowned and shook his head: "I'm not sure yet." ”

Xiao Zhaowen: "That is a clue? ”

Xiao Lian's eyes gradually oozed some coldness: "If it is said that it is for A-Ying, I don't know who else it will be besides that woman?" ”

A touch of ruthlessness flashed in Xiao Zhaowen's eyes: "Then you might as well ask?" ”

Xiao Lian smiled self-deprecatingly: "Everyone is dead, where are you going to ask." ”

"Dead?" Xiao Zhaowen felt a little surprised, but it was only for a moment, he never had a good impression of Xu Wanyu. "Is it possible that Xu Xiaosi is ...... for revenge?"

Xiao Lian frowned slightly: "It's possible." But I vaguely felt that there was something else hidden, but I couldn't figure it out for a while. ”

Xiao Zhaowen said: "You must find the real murderer." ”
