A palace banquet ended unhappily like this-

Late at night, the Royal Palace, the Imperial Study.

The lights in the imperial study were bright, and Gonggong Chen stood outside the hall with a bent face.

Today, the emperor was furious when he came back, and these slaves naturally did not dare to anger the master, but only dared to wait quietly outside.

Just thinking about it, I saw a curling figure appear in sight, and walking beside her was the prince Yuan Peize, and the two hurriedly walked over surrounded by all the maids.

Gonggong Chen also seemed to be a little surprised, what is Concubine Shu doing here? also brought the prince who was grounded.

didn't have time to think about it, he hurriedly greeted him, barely squeezed out a smile, and leaned over towards the two, "The old slave sees His Royal Highness the Prince, Shugui Concubine Niangniang." ”

"Grandpa Chen doesn't have to be polite." Concubine Shu smiled slightly, and said softly: "Is the emperor inside?" ”

Gonggong Chen nodded.

Concubine Shu smiled like a lotus, and walked in with lotus steps.

In the huge imperial study, it was quiet and could only hear the 'rustle' sound of the review and folding, and Yuan Xuanhao was sitting on the dragon chair at the moment to review the folds.

"Your Majesty." "Father." Concubine Shu and Yuan Peize entered the imperial study one after the other and bowed down.

Yuan Xuanhao was still angry, and when he saw Concubine Shu and the prince coming, his face was not good-looking, "It's so late, what are you doing here?" ”

As he spoke, he unhappily put the fold in his hand on the table.

Hearing Yuan Xuanhao say this, Concubine Shugui's eyes instantly turned red, and her eyes were wet, "Your Majesty, the concubine knows that Ze'er made a big mistake today, so she specially brought him to ask you for his guilt." ”

As soon as the words fell, Yuan Peize "pounced" and knelt down straight, "Father, the son is guilty, and I ask my father to forgive me." ”

Looking at his pious gaze, Yuan Xuanhao's face softened slightly, looked at him with a cold face for a moment, and waved his hand, "Okay, get up." ”

Concubine Shu secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

Seeing this, Yuan Peize thought about taking the opportunity to seize this opportunity, gritted his teeth and said: "Father, the son really likes Limo, and I beg my father to give her to my son." ”

As soon as Yuan Xuanhao heard this, his face changed drastically, and his gloomy face was shrouded in endless chills, "No! ”

The majestic voice sounded, revealing an irresistible taste. Jun Wu joked, the marriage contract was canceled by him, how could Mu Limo be established as the crown princess again!

Concubine Shugui's face also became a little ugly, "Ze'er, don't talk nonsense, make your father unhappy!" ”

Yuan Peize took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said again: "Father, tonight's incident is not only about the face of the royal family, but also about Limo's reputation. Father, if you don't agree today, your sons and daughters will not be able to kneel for a long time. ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a "bang", and the celadon cups and folds on the table fell to the ground, and the broken porcelain pieces and water splashed all over the ground.

The entire imperial study fell into a dead silence in an instant—

"How unreasonable!" Yuan Xuanhao was furious and scolded angrily: "You thing that is not enough to achieve and more to lose!" Get out of here! ”

"Father, the son really likes Limo." Yuan Peize was still unwilling to give up like this.

Concubine Shugui's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, "You dare to contradict your father, don't you want the position of the crown prince?" ”

At the beginning, the fact that the crown prince Yuan Peize insisted on refusing the marriage contract had already made Yuan Xuanhao unhappy, and now he has to make a marriage contract, which is impossible no matter what.

Listening to Concubine Shu's words, Yuan Peize couldn't help but be stunned, so he had to close his mouth and say no more.

Yuan Xuanhao's face was pale, and a pair of sharp and shrewd eyes rolled in the dark clouds, "It seems that I have to re-establish the crown prince." ”

Concubine Shugui's face turned pale with shock, the whole person was shaky, and said with tears: "Your Majesty, don't ...... it."

Yuan Xuanhao's face darkened, and there was irrepressible anger in his eyes, "He is the crown prince, the master of the East Palace, and the future prince of Xiling Kingdom, and now in order to get a woman, he has done such a humiliating thing to the royal face, how can I hand over my country to him?" You say?"

Concubine Shugui's body shook violently, and she looked at Yuan Xuanhao trembling and frightened, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

Yuan Xuanhao looked at her with a gloomy face, raised his eyebrows coldly, and said, "Look at the good son you taught, after so many years, he has not grown at all." The prince looks like this now, and he is spoiled by you. ”

When Concubine Shu heard this, she immediately cried with rain, and said aggrievedly: "How can the emperor blindly blame the concubines? If it weren't for King Heng's secret obstruction today, how could Ze'er lose face in front of so many people and be laughed at by others? ”

As soon as these words came out, Yuan Xuanhao's face became darker, his eyes were dark and unclear, and the clouds were treacherous.

I didn't expect Yuan Hengjing to be so bold today, and he didn't even take himself in his eyes at all.

As soon as he thought of this, he was even more annoyed in his heart, and his eyes fell on Yuan Peize, who was kneeling on the ground, and he was immediately furious, "What are you doing here?" Don't hurry up and get out of here! ”

A voice with endless anger sounded from above his head, and Yuan Peize was suddenly frightened, and said hurriedly: "Yes, Erchen retires." ”

Concubine Shu Guifei understood Yuan Xuanhao's expression, so she cried loudly, "Your Majesty, do you really want to abolish Ze'er's crown prince?" ”

Yuan Xuanhao no longer looked at her, and ordered Gonggong Chen, who was standing outside the door, "Send Concubine Shu back to the Lanyue Palace, and she is not allowed to leave the palace without my order." ”

The imperial guards who had received the emperor's order walked in and wanted to drag Shuguifei out of the imperial study.

"Let go of Hongu!" Concubine Shu shook off the guard's hand suddenly, stepped forward, looked at Yuan Xuanhao and cried, "If the emperor doesn't give an explanation to the concubine today, the concubine will not leave." ”

Yuan Xuanhao's face was gloomy, he looked at Concubine Shugui, who was kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly, and rubbed his forehead with a headache.

Sure enough, the prince became like this because of such a concubine.

Yuan Xuanhao's eyes burned with a raging fire, and he said coldly: "If you say more, I will depose the crown prince first and then send you to the cold palace." ”

What the?!

"The Emperor...... The emperor ......" Concubine Shu looked at Yuan Xuanhao in disbelief, her pale and weak face was bloodless.

For so many years, although Empress Zhao has always been the lord of the six palaces, everyone with a discerning eye knows that she is the most favored woman in this harem.

The emperor never said a word of cruelty to her, let alone punished.

Now, he wants to abolish her position as a concubine?!

Concubine Shugui's body was weak and she almost fell to the ground......

Gonggong Chen shouted in his heart, hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Concubine Shugui, and said earnestly in her ear: "Niangniang, why are you so troubled?" ”

He sighed and whispered: "The emperor is on fire now, you better go back to the palace first." After a few days, the emperor's anger is gone, and it is not too late for you to come and intercede for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Otherwise, it won't do you or the crown prince any good......"

Hearing Gonggong Chen say this, Concubine Shu didn't speak anymore and walked out stupidly......

After sending Concubine Shu away, Yuan Xuanhao sat on the main seat, without saying a word, a pair of sharp and shrewd eyes slowly narrowed.

The entire imperial study fell into a dead silence, the atmosphere condensed, and the palace people around them fell to their knees tremblingly, not daring to make a sound, for fear of angering the emperor and harming them......

In the silence, Gonggong Chen held two cups of fine Huangshan hair tips, walked up to the emperor, bowed slightly, and flattered, "Your Majesty." ”

Yuan Xuanhao's face was very ugly, his eyes were covered with a thick layer of frost, and he spoke: "The Tianshu Kingdom has coveted the territory of my Xiling Kingdom for a long time, and now Geya intends to make friends with my country, which is a good thing, but now it is ......."

Gonggong Chen thought for a long time before he slowly spoke, "His Royal Highness the Ninth Emperor Prince, as a prince, should contribute to the country, how can he be dragged down by the love of his children. ”

Yuan Xuanhao narrowed his eyes slightly, his well-informed gaze fell on him, and he sighed, "But you also know that the Geya clan is bound to start a war against our country because of this, and it will be extremely unfavorable to our country at that time." ”

Gonggong Chen's eyes flashed with a thoughtful light, "The Nine Emperor Princes are in their prime, their blood is strong, and Mu Limo is such a captivating woman, it is inevitable to be bewitched by women for a while." ”

When Yuan Xuanhao heard this, he sighed helplessly and shook his head slightly, "Since ancient times, heroes have been sad to pass the beauty pass." ”

"But the small ones have a plan." Gonggong Chen spoke to Yuan Xuanhao.

"What's the plan? Hurry up. ”

"Since His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes is because Miss Mu Er is unwilling to marry Princess Xiyan, if the emperor decrees that Miss Mu Er marry someone else......"

"What do you mean......" A deep meaning appeared at the corner of Yuan Xuanhao's mouth, and he said thoughtfully.

"The emperor can issue two decrees of marriage at the same time, so that he can announce to the world that Xiling and the Geya clan are married, and avoid war with the Geya clan. Second, it can also make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Nine Emperor Princes die for Miss Mu Er. ”

Gonggong Chen smiled flatteringly, "Wouldn't it be wonderful to have the best of both worlds!" ”

Hearing this, Yuan Xuanhao asked, "Do you have a candidate in mind?" ”

Gonggong Chen thought for a moment, his eyes flashed, and said: "Emperor Qiqi, King Heng has not been married so far, and it can be seen that King Heng seems to care about that Miss Mu Er very much. Judging from the small, it is better to marry Miss Mu Er to His Royal Highness King Heng. ”

A look of thought appeared in Yuan Xuanhao's eyes,

"That makes sense, that's it." Yuan Xuanhao nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand at him, "I'm tired, you can step down." ”

"Yes." Gonggong Chen bowed and retreated.

When he was about to close the door, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Concubine Shu still standing there, and couldn't help but widen her eyes, "Niangniang, who are you?" ”

When Concubine Shu saw Gonggong Chen coming out of it, she excitedly stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, ...... What did you just say?"

"This ......" Gonggong Chen sighed, and then said with an embarrassed face: "Our family can't talk nonsense. ”

Concubine Shu hooked her lips and smiled, and turned her head to look at the palace maid Lian Xin beside her. Lianxin understood, took out a gold ingot from his pocket and handed it over.

Gonggong Chen smiled at the ingot of silver, and said: "Niangniang, you are so polite, just rush at your love, the old slave will saddle the horse for you no matter what." ”

Concubine Shu replied politely, "That's very good! ”
