"Li Hong."

Li Hong is the name of Gonggong Li, and Gonggong Li listened to the emperor's call and immediately came in.

"What does the emperor have to call the minions?"

"Go to Prime Minister Jiang's Mansion with me."

"Do you want something to prepare?" Gonggong Li asked, a pair of good-looking eyes looked at the emperor without blinking, as if he understood the emperor's appearance very well.

The emperor gave Gonggong Li a look, and Gonggong Li instantly understood, I have to say that he really understands the emperor very well, otherwise he would not have sat in the position of the chief eunuch every year.

"The emperor waits, the slave will go and prepare."

"Well, speed points."

Gonggong Li nodded, and ran away without a trace, and came back after a while, with an exquisite gift box in his hand, which contained nourishing things, and the emperor was very satisfied with it.

Prime Minister's Office.

As soon as Prime Minister Jiang returned home, he was about to go to his daughter's courtyard when he heard the housekeeper say that the emperor was coming, and hurriedly went out to greet him, and was about to meet but was stopped by the emperor.

"Prime Minister Jiang doesn't need to be polite, I thought about it for a while or it would be better for me to tell Miss Jiang in person, so I came over."

The emperor explained his intentions, and after listening to this, Prime Minister Jiang Cheng led the emperor to his daughter's courtyard.

Mrs. Jiang was in her daughter's room, looking at the marks on her daughter's skin, with a sad face.

"Ying'er, have you really thought it through?"

"Well, my daughter has figured it out." Jiang Ying swallowed the food in her mouth, replied to her mother, and seeing her mother's sad face, she put the bowl in her hand on the small table beside her, "Mother, the emperor is not an ordinary person, if his daughter enters the palace, other ministers will definitely stuff women into the emperor's harem under the pretext of one by one." ”

"But aren't you going to die alone?"

Mrs. Jiang cried as she spoke, she felt sorry for her daughter, and at the same time blamed herself for not being tough enough. If she had been tougher at the beginning, her daughter would not have embarked on this road of no return.

"Mother, how can my daughter die alone, isn't there still a father and mother." Jiang Ying took her mother's hand and said with a smile.

"How can Daddy stay with you all the time."

Now that she is half a person in the ground, she doesn't know when she will close her eyes and pass away, she is most at ease with her daughter, if her daughter can't have a good home, how can she rest assured?

Prime Minister Jiang Cheng led the emperor in, and saw his wife sitting in front of his daughter's bed crying and crying, and coughed lightly.

Jiang Ying saw the emperor behind her father, and hurriedly got up and saluted.

"The courtiers have seen the emperor."

Her voice pulled back to her mother, who was stunned again, and Mrs. Jiang hurriedly saluted the emperor.

"The courtiers have seen the emperor."

"No need to be polite, get up." After speaking, the emperor looked at Jiang Ying.

Mrs. Jiang was called out by Prime Minister Jiang, and the emperor and Jiang Ying were left in the room.

Outside the house, Mrs. Jiang grabbed the master's arm and hurriedly asked, "Why did the emperor come to our house?" ”

Jiang Chengxiang glanced at Gonggong Li who was waiting at the door next to him, and when Gonggong Li saw this, he grinned at Prime Minister Jiang, and the smile made Prime Minister Jiang and his wife panic and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Gonggong Li frowned: "What's the matter, am I laughing scary?" ”

in the room.

Only then did Chu Qing see Jiang Ying's appearance clearly, he was about twenty years old, and at this age, he could be Jiang Ying's father. It's embarrassing to think about what happened last night.

"The emperor sits." Jiang Ying lowered her head a little uncomfortably.

Chu Qing nodded and sat down, and then went straight to the point.

"I heard your father say that you don't want to enter the palace, why do you tell me?"

"If the courtiers enter the palace, it will definitely cause chaos to the emperor."

This made the emperor feel very good, and he was even more determined to take Jiang Ying into the palace, so he made it clear the purpose of his coming today.

"I need you to bear a child for me."

Jiang Ying raised her head and looked at the emperor in surprise, not understanding what the emperor wanted the child to do.

"If you give birth to a child for me, then this child will be the future prince of the kingdom of heaven, do you know what I mean?"

Jiang Ying was shocked again, terrified, she shook her head, and said, "How can He De, the child of a courtier, be the future prince of the kingdom of heaven, the emperor should not be joking." ”

"I'm not kidding, Yun Sheng and Lan Yu don't want to sit in this position, and what happened last night was also done by Lan Yu, since it has happened, then you will stay in the harem and give birth to a child for me."

Jiang Ying was silent, not knowing whether to refuse or agree, after all, the emperor personally came to persuade her, but the meaning of the emperor's words was that he wanted her to have a child.

After thinking for a long time, she thought of a compromise solution: "If the emperor just wants a child, then wait for more than a month, if the courtier is pregnant, she will be born, and then the child will be carried into the palace by the emperor to raise, and the courtier will not have to enter the harem." ”

When the emperor saw that Jiang Ying insisted on not entering the harem, he didn't force it.

"In that case, then do as you say, you rest at home for a few days, and then return to the palace when you are well, and serve by my side as before."

After the emperor finished speaking, he got up, and Jiang Ying blessed his body slightly.

Gonggong Li, who was outside, saw the emperor come out and immediately greeted him.

"Your Majesty, has Miss Jiang agreed?"

"You're concerned about this?" The emperor stared at Gonggong Li.

"Isn't the slave concerned about the emperor's physical and mental problems." Gonggong Li's tone was secretly coquettish, and he was not afraid that the emperor would be angry.

"Since you care about me so much, then the task of convincing Miss Jiang to enter the palace is entrusted to you, don't let me down." After speaking, the emperor patted Gonggong Li on the shoulder, and left without waiting for Gonggong Li to speak openly.

Gonggong Li was stunned, glanced back at Miss Jiang's door, and then immediately went to chase the emperor.

"Your Majesty, you can't let Miss Jiang enter the harem if you come in person, how can the slave convince Miss Jiang, aren't you embarrassed by the slave, Your Majesty, can you take back your life?"

Glancing at Gonggong Li, who was bargaining with him, the emperor snorted coldly: "As the chief eunuch who serves by my side, if this kind of thing can't be solved for me, then what's the use of me keeping you?" ”

Gonggong Li understood that the emperor was not joking, and he was determined to persuade Miss Jiang to enter the palace.

Thinking about it, he stopped: "The slave won't go back to the palace with the emperor." ”

"Well, I am waiting for Miss Jiang, if I convince Miss Jiang, I will find you a daughter-in-law."

Gonggong Li has a black line, and feels that the emperor has become more and more immodest recently, what is the use of him as a eunuch asking for a daughter-in-law? Sending the emperor out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gonggong Li walked back.

The housekeeper saw that Father-in-law Li was back again, and asked curiously: "I don't know what else Father-in-law commands?" ”

"The housekeeper doesn't have to take care of our family, our family is waiting by Miss Jiang's side on the emperor's order, wait for Miss Jiang to take care of herself, and then go back to the palace together."

"Huh?" The housekeeper was dumbfounded.

Father-in-law Li smiled kindly at the dumbfounded housekeeper, then walked past the housekeeper and went back to Miss Jiang's yard.

The butler came back to his senses, turned around and went to find the master.

"Sir."

Prime Minister Jiang was comforting his wife, and when he heard the voice of the housekeeper, he got up and went out.

Walked out of the door and looked at the panting royal.

"What's going on?"

"Master, the emperor has returned to the palace, but Gonggong Li said that the emperor ordered him to stay and serve the young lady, saying that he would return to the palace together when the young lady is well."

Prime Minister Jiang Cheng twisted his eyebrows, it seems that the emperor is determined to let Ying'er enter the harem, since this is the case, then he still has to prepare in advance.

"Well, I know, you send someone to keep an eye on Miss Dian's yard, and Gonggong Li will give you whatever he needs, don't slack off."

"Yes, the slave will send someone to clean up the residence for Gonggong Li."

"Go ahead."

After the housekeeper left, Mrs. Jiang came out of the house and looked at the old man beside her.

"Master, what do you think this should be?"

"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, everything goes naturally."

Mrs. Jiang sighed after listening to the master's words.

"That's all it can be."

******

After the emperor left, the maid went into the room to serve the young lady. Jiang Ying, who was originally sleepy, was not sleepy at this time, so she asked the maid to set up a recliner outside, while she sat on the recliner and read a book with her.

Father-in-law Li came back to see Miss Jiang reading in the shade of the tree, and walked over and asked, "Why doesn't Miss Jiang rest?" ”

Listening to the voice, Jiang Ying turned around and looked at Gonggong Li in surprise.

"Why didn't Gonggong Li go back to the palace with the emperor?"

Speaking of this, Gonggong Li threw himself beside Miss Jiang and cried.

"Miss Jiang, you have to be the master of our family."

"What's going on?" Jiang Ying sat up and put down the book in her hand.

The maid who was waiting on the side saw Gonggong Li like this, lowered her head and snickered, thinking that Gonggong Li was still quite interesting.

"The emperor won't let our family go back to the palace, saying that if you don't enter the harem, Miss Jiang, let our family stay by Miss Jiang's side for a lifetime, when Miss Jiang is willing to enter the harem, when will our family be able to return to the palace." Father-in-law Li behaved very miserably and realistically, and after saying this, he looked up at Miss Jiang and cried, "Miss Jiang, the happiness of our family in the future is on Miss Jiang." ”

Jiang Ying stared at Father-in-law Li, and when Father-in-law Li finished speaking, she rolled her eyes.

"Grandpa Li, your expression is too fake."

Gonggong Li, who was debunked by Miss Jiang, pursed his lips and got up to sit on the small stool on the side.

"Miss Jiang, although my words are half false, but half true, the emperor gave me a task, this task must not be said by me, Miss Jiang also knows what it is, so please Miss Jiang for the sake of the past friendship, and answer the matter of entering the harem." Father-in-law Li directly used me to refer to himself to show his sincerity.

"......"

"I know what Miss Jiang is worried about, but since the emperor has let Miss Jiang enter the harem, he will definitely be prepared, so Miss Jiang doesn't need to think about it."

Jiang Ying was silent, even though the emperor could solve those things, but the Jiang family was on the cusp of the storm, if the Jiang family had three longs and two shorts, she would definitely not forgive herself.

Therefore, she still refused.

"Gonggong Li doesn't need to be persuaded to persuade me, I have already told the emperor that I will return to the palace when I am well, and I am still the palace maid who serves by the emperor's side."

Seeing that Gonggong Li had said everything, he didn't know how to continue to persuade, but thinking of the emperor's order, he thought that he would continue to persuade tomorrow.

Gonggong Li smiled: "Let's not talk about this first, your face is so bad, it's better to rest and rest, don't read." ”

After speaking, he picked up the book and handed it to the maid on the side.

"Don't get used to your young lady."

"Yes."

The maid was also worried that the young lady's body would not be able to bear it, so she obeyed the order and took the book away with Gonggong Li.
