Chapter 108: Vortex

Jiang Li knew that the amount of gunpowder he had purchased from the Ninth Prince was huge, and it was already generous to give him half of it.

He thought that after such a long time, Guozhang had already seen his sincerity to Lian'er, and the most powerful Beizhao among the four kingdoms had already been in his pocket, and a mere Ximu was destined to be in his pocket.

No matter what means he obtained, he can be regarded as fulfilling his promise.

Jiang Li couldn't figure out Guozhang's ambitions, it seemed that everything on the surface was planning for Murong Lian's future, and Jiang Li also thought that he was using his accommodation and reluctance to Murong Lian to pave the way for his thoughts.

It's just that Jiang Li doesn't want to think about it, he doesn't want to doubt it, because he doesn't want to lose Murong Lian.

Now the abbot is blatantly begging for military power, Jiang Li is not a fool, the environment in which he has lived since he was a child has made him understand the unpredictability of people's hearts early on, and now he will not be stupid to think that the abbot is as he said, for the happiness of himself and Lian'er, to attack Ximu.

But this child, Jiang Li really wants to protect him very, very much, whether it is a man or a woman, she wants to give him the most favor and the best life in the world. has even imagined the life of their family of three in the future.

After a long while, in Murong Lian's eyes that were both expectant and worried, Jiang Li replied, "Let me ...... Think about it. ”

When Murong Lian heard this, she vaguely felt that Dao Jiangli's heart was shaking, so she said, "Ah Li, Lian'er believes in you and will let our children grow up well." ”

The meaning of the words was that she believed that Jiang Li would agree to Guozhang's request.

Jiang Li sighed: "You can be regarded as in this palace, calling me a ...... A-Li."

A little sorrow, a little joy, Jiang Li himself can't tell the difference.

Yan Ran's voice came from outside the door: "Niangniang, the imperial doctor said that you can't stay too long, it will affect the prince in the belly of the Dao." ”

As soon as he heard that it would affect the child, Jiang Li said that he would no longer let Murong Lian continue to stay.

"Wait for me to be good, and then accompany Lian'er well, now obediently go back to recuperate, I want to see a white and fat Lian'er, but I am not allowed to be like this all the time."

Murong Lian pursed her lips and muttered, "Don't be fat, but you will be disliked." ”

Jiang Li hooked her nose: "How can I dislike such a lovely lotus, go back." ”

Of course, he wouldn't realize that what Murong Lian was worried about was not that he disliked, but that he had been afraid of and respected another man.

After Murong Lian and Yanran left, Cang Zimeng went to Jiang Li's room.

Just outside the door, Yan Ran actually said in the name of Murong Lian that she would keep an eye on Jiang Li's actions, and that Murong Lian's purpose in sending her to serve Jiang Li was like this.

Cangzi Meng thought to himself, he really found the right person......

Murong Lian wanted to monitor Jiang Li's every move, perhaps because she was afraid that something would be revealed, after all, whether there was a child in her belly or not was one thing, and it was another thing to have an adulterous affair with the national master.

Dai Yin, who has been in Murong Lian's palace, said that these days Murong Lian secretly went to the Guozhang Mansion almost every day, each time she went late at night and came back before dawn.

Cangzi Meng was already surprised by this kind of thing, but just told Dai Yin not to observe everything too carefully, after all, the two of them are not together now.

Time passed unconsciously, another half a month passed, Jiang Li's body was well under the "care" of Cangzi Meng, and Nianbai officially informed everyone that the emperor's illness had recovered ninety percent and there was no need to recuperate.

Jiang Li was finally relieved and could go to the sunshine outside.

In this half-month of improvement, even if Murong Lian visited him every once in a while, she was taken away by Yanran within half an hour every time, and Jiang Li didn't dare to stay with her for too long for the sake of the child in her womb.

Now that the imperial doctors had promised him that he would not affect Murong Lian, he no longer had to worry about anything.

Cangzi Meng finally returned to Murong Lian's palace to be his own palace maid, thinking that in the past few days, Jiang Li and Murong Lian Wencun would ignore him for a few days, and he could be idle for a few days, the ghost knows what Jiang Li's guy was crazy about, and he will come down with a holy decree on the second day of recovery.

Which husband who has been with Cangzimeng for nearly a month reads: "The palace maid Luo Shushu, virtuous, virtuous and ladylike, has taken care of the dragon body for many days, and is specially named a noble concubine ......"

This immediately shifted everyone's attention to her, and the emperor canonized the palace maid who had been taking care of him as a concubine as soon as he recovered, which created an illusion of the emperor's empathy and love, and made countless palace maids envious and jealous. made them all annoyed that they didn't come forward during the time when the emperor was seriously ill.

When he received the holy decree, Cangzi Meng was grinding the Kodan for Murong Lian, and the most vivid petals and various materials were used to make a bright red Kodan, and the dyed nails were bright and long-lasting.

Of course, it is impossible for Murong Lian to be the only two palace maids by her side, so almost half of the harem knows in an instant that Luo Shushu is going to be a concubine.

Many palace maids who didn't deal with much before came to stammer, hoping to get some benefits. Cangzi Meng just gave them a smile that couldn't see their emotions, because she didn't know what was waiting for her.

"Shushu, after becoming a concubine, you will have your own palace, is there any good palace maid here, this palace will allow you to have someone to accompany you to relieve your boredom."

When Murong Lian said this, Cangzimeng immediately thought of Dai Yin: "When the slave maid first entered the palace, there was a girl who could still talk, but I haven't seen much recently. ”

"It's okay, just talk about it, tell the name of this palace, and let Yanran bring it to you tomorrow." Murong Lian was also generous, and happily handed over Dai Yin to her.

For such a long time, everything Cangzimeng has done has not been in vain, in Murong Lian's eyes, she is a slave who has servility, the head of the household and cares about her father.

Blocking arrows with her body, taking care of Jiang Li with her life, and she will definitely use her life as a stepping stone for her future in the future.

The only imperial concubine in Jiangli's harem, just to block the mouths of others, will also hold a big ceremony.

And at this critical step, Jiang Li was stuck.

Guozhang asked Jiang Li to agree to the conditions he put forward before the canonization ceremony, that is, Jiang Li must hand over the military power and arms before canonizing Luo Shushu as a concubine, otherwise not to mention whether Luo Shushu can be successfully canonized, even the child in Murong Lian's belly may not be able to be saved.

Jiang Li suddenly stood on the cusp, a little annoyed that he had prematurely agreed to Murong Lian's holy decree to canonize Luo Shushu.

Originally, he thought that he could turn the attention of some enemies to Luo Shushu early, making people think that he was empathetic and farewell to love during his serious illness, so that he could temporarily protect Murong Lian.

Now that the prince is approaching step by step, and the court officials are also waiting for the canonization of the concubine, if the time is too long, it will definitely arouse suspicion.

On the ninth day of the Holy Decree, three days had passed since the originally planned canonization time, and Murong Lian couldn't wait to ask him, "Your Majesty, when will you canonize the book?" ”

The time of the plan was originally discussed by Jiang Li and the two of her alone, and no third person knew. It was not only Murong Lian who couldn't wait, but also a group of powerful ministers who knew the news.

Jiang Li sighed, and there was a little melancholy between her delicate eyebrows: "The day after tomorrow, in the afternoon, I will let my father-in-law tell everyone, and Lian'er should not be anxious." ”

"What about my father?"

Of course, what Murong Lian really cared about was not Luo Shushu, but the real purpose was to want Jiang Li to agree to Guozhang's conditions.

"I agreed......"

Before the child in the womb of his beloved Lian'er, he must agree to the request of the national abbot.

It was irresistible in the past, and now it has no right to refuse.

Jiang Li, who has lost his military power, can only be slaughtered by others.

He couldn't guarantee that if someone with bad intentions knew what he would do if he lost his military power, he didn't know if he could use it to save himself if he was in a crisis.

He made a bet for Murong Lian and his future with Nan Sheng, but the result is unknown.

From the very beginning, he has been gambling.

Bet that you can become the most important child of your father, bet that you can win her heart, and bet that you will destroy a powerful Beizhao.

He succeeded, and he won well.

Although, I lost my siblings, my family, I lost myself, and I lost a chance to live in peace.

The clearest of them is probably Murong Lian, who knows what she wants from beginning to end.

It's just a man's heart, and that person is not Jiang Li.

Jiang Li treated her like the foolish princess did to Jiang Li, wishful thinking, with no beginning and no end, and finally lost and lost.

Isn't she gambling......

"Dai Yin, I'm going to be his concubine, don't you think it's ridiculous?"

Cangzi Meng sat in front of the bronze mirror, facing his face after removing his mask, beautiful, familiar, and strange.

The phoenix eyes reflected in the bronze mirror did not have the slightest warmth, and the expressionless expression looked like Yan Mingjiu in Dai Yin's eyes.

This girl, who has been through a lot of things, has grown from a delicate and willful princess to an adult with a heavy burden.

The man who was about to marry the man who was happy when he was young is indeed after nine months, with another identity and face, full of joy and resentment.

It's ridiculous, it's sad, it's sad......

"Yes, it seems that in this good story between the emperor and the queen, you are going to be inserted into a saboteur's gimmick."

"It doesn't matter, I heard Nianbai say that Jiang Li gave the military power to the national abbot?"

"Isn't that a good thing for us?"

Cangzi Meng nodded: "It's good." ”

What the outside world said about her, Cangzi Meng didn't have the leisure to care, and good words and bad words are indispensable for a piece of meat.

"Mr. said that you are weak, drink some soup and medicine at night to make up for it, the slave and maid are not hot."

Dai Yin called Yan Mingjiu Mr., there was nothing wrong with it in normal times, what made Cang Zimeng strange was that she would listen to Yan Mingjiu's words like this, and looked at the decoction in Dai Yin's hand that smelled bitter, and raised her eyebrows slightly: "When did you listen to him like this?" ”

Dai Yin shrugged: "As long as it's for your good, the slave will not refuse." ”
