He said yes.

What he said was the same as what the queen said to me, what is a major national matter, for the sake of the people, I have to marry, I hope I understand.

I felt uncomfortable, trying to understand him, I kept comforting myself, there are many last resorts in a high position, and this is a national matter, how can I be willful?

But it didn't work, no amount of excuses could make me feel uncomfortable, as if a hand with long nails was holding my heart and tugging.

Holding back tears, I raised my eyes and said to him, "I just don't know the general situation, since you haven't kept your promise, I don't have to stay in the palace." ”

I turned to leave, but he grabbed my arm.

I want to get it, he just wants to say how much he loves me, how reluctant he is to let me go, or directly intimidate me, and use his supreme right to suppress me.

He is the emperor, it is not difficult for him to want someone, but I don't want to, I must stand on an equal footing with the people I love.

I have decided that no matter what he says or explains, I will not be soft-hearted, and if he really wants to threaten me, I will rather die.

I looked at him for a long, long time before he spoke hoarsely: "Ah Zi, help me." ”

I sneered: "What's the emperor's difficulty, there are so many people in the world who are willing to help you, why me?" ”

He smiled bitterly: "The wolf ambition of the Wu country, the eunuchs of the DPRK and China control the government, I can't bear to make the lives of the people of the two countries miserable, and I can't bear to kill the ministers who have protected me for many years. ”

He hugged me into his arms again, hot tears fell on my neck, and he whimpered: "Ah Zi, I have read the book you wrote for me, you are the only one in the whole world who knows me so well, if I don't have you, I will have nothing." ”

My heart is getting more and more uncomfortable, I feel sorry for him, but I don't want to wronged myself.

If I am wronged this time, then in the future, the northern country will send another princess, and the Zhao country will send another princess, won't he have to accept it every time?

I'm a child, and I love to be jealous, so I have to be angry with myself.

He hugged me tighter and tighter, and said, "Ah Zi, I need you, please don't leave me." ”

He is such a dignified emperor, and he is so humble in front of me.

My heart was so sullen that I couldn't speak.

I know that maybe I won't be able to leave this deep palace.

The emperor suspected that Princess Wu had other intentions, so he asked me to take care of her daily life and monitor her by the way.

She was about my age, and when she first saw me, she gave me a box of jewels, and I was afraid that if I didn't want it, it would arouse her suspicions, so I accepted it.

On the day she entered the palace, the emperor pampered her, and I was supposed to be on duty that night, but I found an excuse not to go, and hid in the room alone, looking at the moonlight outside the window in a daze.

In the middle of the night, I suddenly heard a knock at the door, and I thought it was the palace maid who lived with me who had returned, so I immediately closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep.

The man walked up to me lightly and rubbed his hand against my face.

A familiar touch came, I opened my eyes suddenly, looked at him, turned my face again, and said stiffly: "Shouldn't the emperor lie next to Concubine De at this time?" What are you doing in the women's quarters?! ”

He hugged me, and when he saw that I still ignored him, he simply put half of his body on me, and said in my ear: "Ah Zi, I only have you in my heart." ”

I sneered: "If I spend the Spring Festival with a guard one day, and I look back and tell you that I only have you in my heart, but I have slept with a lot of people, are you happy?" ”

"You ......"

I could hear his tone suddenly turn cold, but I wasn't afraid of him.

Although I promised him to stay in the palace to help him because of my soft heart, my anger has not disappeared, today is a good day for him and Concubine De, how can I give him a good face?

He was still holding me, and I broke free twice, but I didn't break free, and I went with him.

He hugged me for a long, long time, until there was a sound of footsteps outside, and he let go of me and got up to leave.

The person outside is Concubine De, she should have woken up and didn't see the emperor, so I found out, I heard her voice, very gentle: "Your Majesty, where did you just go?" ”

"I can't sleep, come out for a walk. Concubine Ai's body is weak, go back to the room and lie down. ”

I closed my eyes, half of the pillow already wet with my tears.

is a good concubine, and a weak body.

Yin Huaiqing, if you and I still have a chance to be together, I will definitely beat you up.

Concubine De entered the palace two months ago and became pregnant.

The concubines in the palace all came to visit her.

Probably because the women in the palace are rich, and I am a layman who loves money as much as my life, so I am particularly concerned about the things that enter and leave the Xianfu Palace, and weigh the price of each item in my heart.

I found out that this concubine from a foreign country is really good at being a person, and whatever others give her, she will return it with something better.

This style is really heroic, and the concubine prefers to visit her.

Many people in the palace know about my relationship with Your Majesty, but for so long, I am still a female official, doing some chores for Concubine De.

When many concubines saw me in Xianfu Palace, they always wanted to mock me, and today two concubines surrounded me and laughed at me.

A twisted gesture and said, "Miss Chu's palace maid's dress is really heroic." ”

One covered his mouth and chuckled, "Isn't it?" Miss Chu also looks good in the clothes of a palace maid, but if she wears the clothes of a concubine, she will not be able to show such a good figure. ”

For the convenience of female officials, the palace clothes are tailor-made, and the clothes of the concubines are mostly lenient and generous in order to show nobility and style. I didn't want to worry about them, so I smiled and said, "If the two mothers like it, the next official will prepare two pieces for the two mothers?" ”

The more calm I became, the more unhappy they felt, and one of them had no brains to push me and scolded: "Do you still think that the emperor will not marry you?" Let me tell you Chu Weizi, you have no place in the emperor's heart! ”

I didn't expect her to suddenly make such a move, staggered back two steps, and at this time, someone behind me suddenly helped me, and then I heard Concubine De's soft voice: "Two sisters, Ah Zi was sent by His Majesty to teach me to learn the etiquette of the Li Kingdom, and I am my teacher, if there is anything offended, I hope the two sisters will not worry about Ah Zi." ”

One of the concubines twisted her eyebrows and sneered: "Concubine De Niangniang, don't be deceived by her, this person is a well-known fox spirit in the palace, tricked His Majesty into bringing her into the palace, and once coaxed His Majesty to spoil the concubines in the harem for several months." ”

Another said: "Yes, what she does outside the palace is a job of showing her face, so she can't be on the stage, and I don't know what Your Majesty likes about her." ”

Concubine De smiled: "Since it was arranged by His Majesty, there must be His Majesty's reason." ”

Her words made the two men look uneasy.

The emperor's attitude towards me is ambiguous, and they are still jealous.

After the two of them left, Concubine De returned to the main hall and instructed the palace maid she brought from Wu Kingdom, saying, "You can give the two Shu brocades that the emperor rewarded yesterday to these two sisters." ”

The palace maid muttered in a low voice: "Give it back?" Since the beginning of winter, the mother herself has no money to make new clothes! ”

Concubine De smiled helplessly: "Those two are angry with me, if you look back and hate me, it won't be two Shu brocades that can be settled, you go and send it, I still have the clothes I brought from Wu State, which can cope with the winter." ”

The palace maid didn't dare to disobey her master anymore, but when she walked up to me, she glared at me hatefully.
