"Lord Ning, just in front of the ministers, why do you want to approve of this prince personally going to help the spirit?"

The discussion was fruitless, let the ministers disperse first, Chu Lingyu left Ning Xiuhan alone, and asked with a frown.

Now the second prince Chu Linghong has clearly expressed his ambitions, if the prince goes to help the spirit, he will definitely let the second prince take advantage of the situation, as long as he leaves the capital, the crisis faced by the prince Chu Lingyu will also be doubled, this is clear to everyone, Ning Xiuhan has no reason not to see clearly.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, although this line of work is full of dangers, it is also an opportunity, although the minister does not want His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to take risks in person, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must not give this opportunity to the second prince."

Ning Xiuhan lowered his eyes and replied lightly.

"Oh?"

Chu Lingyu raised his eyebrows, and the anger in his heart finally eased a little: "Xiu Han is talking about why this is?" ”

"Whoever goes to help the soul means that whoever has more access to the emperor first and has more time to negotiate with the adults who are accompanying the emperor...... Previously, when the emperor drove the expedition in person, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was sick because of lingering, and the emperor handed over the military affairs to His Royal Highness the Second Prince, which is also the main basis for His Royal Highness the Second Prince to argue with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince now. ”

After a pause, Ning Xiuhan continued: "If His Royal Highness the Second Prince takes this opportunity, what if he falsely preaches the holy decree and deceives the people of the world? Therefore, the minister thought that it was better for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to take the lead in taking this step, not only to prevent the second prince from attacking His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from the commanding heights of morality, but also to set an example for the ministers of the world, even if the second prince was really bad in the future, it must be difficult to hide the ...... of the world."

The words were reasonable and reasonable, which made Chu Lingyu suddenly feel like he was sudden.

"I see......"

Chu Lingyu's eyes flashed with a sudden realization, and he arched his hand to Ning Xiuhan with a look of shame: "It's hard to think about this prince like Xiuhan, but this prince has just been confused, and he actually suspects Xiuhan's ......."

"Being in the position of the crown prince, and at such a sensitive moment, even if His Royal Highness the crown prince doubts the minister, the minister can understand."

Ning Xiuhan hurriedly returned the salute, still hanging his eyes, so that the prince could not see his joy and anger.

But after listening to Ning Xiuhan's assurance, the prince breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "That's good, that's good, Xiuhan, at such a sensitive moment now, you must help this prince to sit in a stable position, presumably in the future, the two of us will be able to leave a story of the unity of kings and ministers to future generations!" ”

"Obey."

Ning Xiuhan pursed his lips, and the whole person was still not sad or happy.

At this time, Chu Lingyu suddenly realized that last night was Ning Xiuhan's cave room candle night, and he was delayed because of such a thing, and he immediately thought that he understood the reason why his face was expressionless.

"The sudden death of my father also delayed the flower candles in the cave room between you and Jingyi, and this prince is really a little uneasy in his heart......

Chu Lingyu sighed, stepped forward in person, patted Ning Xiuhan's shoulder, and said in a low voice: "It's just that the incident happened suddenly, you don't have to blame Jingyi, after all, the great gift has been completed, and now you are my brother-in-law, the concubine of the Li Kingdom, and the flower candle in your cave room...... Let's push back a little bit! ”

"Please rest assured, His Royal Highness the Prince, the princess will naturally follow the teachings of the saint, and please also ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to mourn, now you have to cheer up and deal with many miscellaneous matters in the harem, the minister will not disturb His Royal Highness, and the minister will retire."

After reaching the ground for a long time, Ning Xiuhan ignored Chu Lingyu's mood of wanting to speak and stopped, and turned to leave.

There was a panic in the palace, and Jingyi, who had already learned the news of Chu Aotian's death in the Ning Mansion, had already cried uncontrollably, and when Ning Xiuhan returned to the house, what he saw was Princess Jingyi who had changed into a red wedding dress, dressed in plain clothes, and cried with pear blossoms and rain.

As the saying goes, if you want to be pretty, you are filial, and she is usually used to seeing Princess Jingyi's arrogance, but seeing her crying so helplessly at this moment, Ning Xiuhan's heart suddenly softened a little, and the expression on her face was also a little more gentle.

"Ninglang ......"

When Jingyi raised her head and saw Ning Xiuhan, she threw herself into Ning Xiuhan's arms with tears in her eyes.

"My father died, Ning Lang, they said that my father died, you tell me if this is true...... Woowoo woo ......"

Ning Xiuhan hid the complexity in his eyes, gently patted Jingyi's back, and said in a low voice: "Yes, my father and the emperor have died, and I received an urgent report from the palace last night, and the queen and His Royal Highness the crown prince found the ministers to discuss the matter, so I left you behind, and I hope you don't blame me......"

Jingyi shook her head, her teary eyes were hazy but she pretended to be strong: "How can I blame you?" Ning Lang is not only the princess's concubine, but also the pillar of my Li country, how can Jingyi make it difficult for Ning Lang for her own selfishness? Besides, this is the father, Ning Lang, we, we have to keep filial piety for our father......"

"Of course I know this, thank you princess for her magnanimity."

Ning Xiuhan sighed softly, and said to Jingyi in a low voice: "You clean up first, and hurry into the palace in a while, there are some important matters, I want to discuss it with my mother." ”

"Mother?"

Jingyi was stunned for a moment, and then a touch of ecstasy appeared on her face: "Ning Lang just said that he was the concubine?" Ning Lang, are you willing to call my mother concubine and also my mother concubine? ”

Ning Xiuhan smiled slightly, rubbed Jingyi's hair with his hand, and said in a low voice: "You and I have already worshipped, putting aside our identity as a princess and a concubine, you are my wife, I am your husband, then your father is naturally my father, and your mother is naturally also my mother...... But what's the problem? ”

"No problem, of course no problem!"

Jingyi hurriedly shook her head, burst into laughter, and then snuggled her head back on Ning Xiuhan's chest: "Ning Lang, I'm really happy, you know?" I always thought that you hated me and did not want to marry me, after all, it was all the result of my calculations...... But I didn't expect you to be able to identify with me, I'm really happy......"

"Don't say stupid things, my eyes are swollen from crying for a while, and I don't know how to explain it in front of my mother!"

Ning Xiuhan gently wiped away the tears on Jingyi's cheeks, and said softly: "Go and prepare, time waits for no one now, there are some things, I want to hear what the mother concubine means!" ”

Although Jingyi was a little unclear, she still obediently followed Ning Xiuhan's words, and within half an hour, Ning Xiuhan, who had just left the East Palace, followed Princess Jingyi into the palace and came to Huayang Palace to greet Concubine Rou.

"My ......"

Although she hadn't seen her for one night, it seemed like she hadn't seen Jingyi for a long time for Concubine Rou, and she didn't wait for Jingyi to finish her salute, so she cried and rushed forward and hugged Jingyi: "Now that your father has died, you have married again, leaving your mother alone in this deep palace, how can it be good......

This cry was also from the bottom of his heart, and his feelings were sincere, even Ning Xiuhan, who was standing on the side, sighed in his heart.

"Please also mourn on Mother'......s Day"

Jingyi endured the pain in her heart, personally wiped away the tears on Concubine Rou's cheeks, and comforted softly: "Even if Jingyi is not in the palace, she is always in this imperial city, if the mother concubine misses Jingyi, just let someone summon Jingyi into the palace...... Besides, Ning Lang is very good to Jingyi now, by the way, Ning Lang has something to discuss with his mother! ”

While talking, Jing Yi beckoned to Ning Xiuhan: "Ning Lang, if you have anything to say, tell your mother quickly!" ”

"Mother, the princess came with the princess today to ask the mother what choice she made between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Second Prince."

After Ning Xiuhan stepped forward to pay respects, he didn't bother to talk and asked straight to the point.

"This ......"

Concubine Rou's eyes flashed, and she pretended not to understand and asked, "What do you mean by this?" What is the choice? ”

"Mother, now that the son has become a relative to Princess Jingyi, she is Princess Jingyi's concubine, and she is also the son-in-law of the mother, so she naturally wants to stand with the princess and the princess at this time, and the concubine does not need to doubt this."

Ning Xiuhan's eyes stared at Concubine Rou tightly, and said in a low voice: "Erchen knows that the mother concubine and Concubine Jia of the Cloud Palace walked quite close a few days ago, maybe Concubine Jia's promise to the mother concubine is not yet known, the mother concubine has never mentioned it to the son, maybe because she is considerate of the son, but now that the sky of the Li Kingdom has fallen, the son wants to hear the idea of the mother concubine, whether to continue to support the crown prince to ascend the throne, or secretly assist His Royal Highness the Second Prince, and strongly advocate that His Royal Highness the Second Prince inherit Datong!" ”

This is said bluntly, it can't be more straightforward, even if Concubine Rou heard it, her heart also "chuckled", and her face changed a few times.

"But the prince's brother is the crown prince set up by his father himself, and everyone knows about it inside and outside, how can the imperial brother surpass the prince's brother and become the new emperor? Is it difficult, is it difficult to kill the prince's brother? ”

Jingyi was suddenly shocked, and the king Ning Xiuhan was a little incredulous.

But Ning Xiuhan didn't seem to hear Jingyi's words, and just stared at Concubine Rou intently.

Concubine Rou gritted her teeth, her heart was horizontal, and she said in a low voice: "Don't hide it from the virtuous son-in-law, Concubine Jia did come to the palace, and made a promise to the palace, and the palace knows that her purpose is not our mother and daughter, but because the palace has a good son-in-law like you!" ”

Ning Xiuhan's eyes flashed, and he continued to listen to Concubine Rou.

"If, if the virtuous son-in-law is willing to listen to the humble opinion of the palace, then the palace thinks that it may not be a good thing to change the face......"

Concubine Rou looked at Ning Xiuhan meaningfully, Ning Xiuhan's pupils shrank sharply, she turned around in her heart for a moment, and said with a cautious face: "Mother Concubine has thought about it, once you go out with this step, there is no room to turn back!" ”

Biting her lower lip, Concubine Rou's eyes flashed with a touch of cruelty: "Life and death are fateful, rather than being restrained by others for the rest of your life, it is better to give it a go!" Virtuous son-in-law, I don't understand the things outside, and you take care of it! ”

"Don't worry, concubine, son, will take good care of Jingyi."

Ning Xiuhan took a deep breath and solemnly made a promise.
