Chapter 52: Mother's Family

When the decree was issued, the Queen Mother asked her what kind of life she wanted in the future.

What do you want? She had never imagined that everything she had done so far was just casual.

But even if she couldn't answer the Queen Mother's question, she knew very well that whether she was an official in the court or in the harem, it was not what she wanted.

However, before today, she never thought about how to deal with it in the future, but she didn't expect Rong Guogong to accidentally put this topic in front of her, since this is the case, then let's take this opportunity to deal with it together.

Rong Guogong was not surprised, although he was a little surprised, but he also felt that this answer was in line with the other party's style of acting.

He had also guessed before that Bai Tang worked so hard in this case, whether it was to gain a credit, so that he could get a position in the court.

Although I feel that with the temperament of the other party, I probably won't like the deceit of officialdom, but once something gets involved in the relationship, who can say for sure, I can't say that she is willing to give up what she thinks for the sake of the Nine Emperors.

But later, he also understood that it was rumored that these two people were not married to Feiqing, but in his opinion, for the time being, it seemed that they were still in a state where Lang had no intention of marrying a concubine.

I wasn't in the mood to pay attention to other things before, but now that I'm in a relaxed mood, Rong Guogong is starting to want to watch the drama happily, especially the drama of the Nine Emperor Princes.

He used to think that the Nine Emperors were not as simple as they seemed, but after coming into contact with it recently, he was sure that this conjecture was simply a cloaked ...... No, it should be a Jiao that has grown claws.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sink his eyebrows again, thinking of his nephew.

To be honest, his recent actions may disappoint or suspect his nephew, but his nephew's actions have never made him feel cold.

Not to mention that Mu Shaochen was sick at the beginning, but until he was buried, the other party never came to see him, and he didn't even ask.

The only mention is the subsequent Xingshi questioning and false persuasion.

But every sentence is implying that he focuses on the overall situation, gives up Mu Shaochen, and pokes his heart every sentence.

He knew that he was not close to Shaochen, and even because of the attitude of his elders, he didn't have a good impression of Shaochen, but he also had a bit of blood and family affection in his bones, but his ruthless statement made him disappointed.

He resolutely asked Bai Tang to save Mu Shaochen, even if he cooperated with the Nine Emperor Princes, it may not be a temptation for his nephew.

But the results disappointed him.

He didn't have the energy to think about anything else before, but now he really had to think about it again.

There are only two kings who can really secure the throne throughout the ages, one is extremely powerful, has the means and courage to dominate the country, and also has the domineering spirit of Pyongyang's foreign enemies.

One is benevolent and virtuous, good at calming the inside and soothing the outside, soft on the outside and rigid on the inside, with a good belly and a chest that can accommodate the world.

But the eldest prince is not in line at all, selfish, narrow-minded, rigid, cold, empty and full of strategy, but he has no ability to govern, and the power of the people, even if he sits in that position, I am afraid that he will not end up well.

Nine Emperors' Mansion.

Wei Jiuli, who had just returned from the Inspector's Mansion and was about to wash up before going to the Rongguo Mansion to talk to Bai Tang about the case, was suddenly told by the housekeeper that there was a distinguished guest in the mansion.

"Who?"

All fierce beasts have a strong sense of territory and possessiveness, and the same is true for Wei Jiuli, and there are not many people in his prince's mansion who can be let in casually.

"It's Mrs. Lin Xi." The butler said respectfully.

Wei Jiuli paused invisibly, and then continued to move forward, "Oh, it turned out to be my aunt, but is it well settled?" ”

"Don't dare to slack off." The butler bowed.

Wei Jiuli hummed without distinguishing his emotions, but did not go directly to see people, but on the grounds of etiquette, he went to wash up first before going to the main hall.

On the high seat of the main hall, a beautiful woman who looks to be in her twenties is holding a two-year-old child for fun.

Her eyebrows are clear, and her delicate facial features are even more dazzling because of the gentleness on her face.

She smiled at the corner of her mouth, holding a piece of pastry in her hand and teasing the child in her arms from time to time, occasionally chuckling a few times.

The maid next to her responded with a couple of words from time to time, and the atmosphere looked very warm and beautiful, until Wei Jiuli came in, and it changed slightly.

"Auntie, you came all the way here, why didn't you tell your nephew in advance, so that your nephew could send someone to pick it up, now the world is uneven, you need to be more careful when you go out." Wei Jiuli came in, and after seeing the woman, his eyebrows and eyes also softened, although there was blame in his words, but his tone was full of worry.

When the woman saw her, her eyebrows and eyes were gentle, and there was love in her eyes that seemed to be inconsistent with her age, "You are a junior who has fallen to the elders, and it has been two years since we last met, and you don't come to see your aunt, and you don't allow your aunt to come to see you." ”

She had a strange look in her mouth, but a smile in her eyes, as if she was very happy.

Wei Jiuli also seemed to be at a loss, and said apologetically, "It's my nephew." ”

"Okay, it's not really coming to Xingshi to ask about the crime, sit down, don't stand, look at the tired vine, how are you doing, it seems that you have lost a lot of weight, and you haven't been ...... Bully it. She paused, and it was not difficult to hear who she was referring to.

The woman is Wei Jiuli's aunt, but the two are not related by blood.

Her name is Lin Xi, and she is the Jinlan sister of Concubine Luo Shuiyue.

Because the rivers and lakes and the court have always had well water that does not interfere with river water, Luo Shuiyue resolutely wanted to marry Wei Guojun back then, which made her break off relations with him in a fit of anger.

It wasn't until Concubine Xian's unjust case was unexpectedly ordinary by Bai Tang that she learned of the other party's death, and she was immediately stimulated and fell ill.

It wasn't until the second year that he found Wei Jiuli.

Wei Jiuli's martial arts were also taught by the people she introduced.

It's just that she still has hatred for Wei Guojun because of her sister's unjust death, so she doesn't want to show it, and the number of times her aunt and nephew have seen each other so far is only a handful.

"I'm no longer a child, my aunt can be relieved." Wei Jiuli smiled gently, with a soothing smile on his eyebrows.

"What's the heart, no matter how big it is, it's still a child in my aunt's eyes, you're in your early twenties today, but you're still alone, you talk to your aunt, what is your idea? I can't delay it any longer, so I can't explain it to my sister. Lin Xi snorted lightly.

"I, just think about what happened to my mother, I don't want to affect other women, and now I am still unstable around me, how can I settle down, and I have sworn that I will only marry my loved ones in this life, if I can't give her a stable environment, I would rather not marry than settle."

"You...... Alas. It seemed that because he mentioned Luo Shuiyue, Lin Xi was also a little sad, but he quickly put it away and said, "I've heard that there is already someone in your heart, and that person has come back recently?" ”

"It's all hearsay, how can my aunt be trusted, if there is such a person, I will definitely take it to my aunt as soon as possible." Wei Jiuli said sincerely, and his face showed helplessness, as if he was really worried about these rumors.

"Oh, so that Bai Tang is not the object of your pursuit?" Lin Xi raised his eyebrows, looking suspicious.

"Naturally not, it's just a chess piece." Wei Jiuli smiled mockingly, his expression was full of indifference, and he seemed to have a little disgust and contempt.
