414 Emperor's Punishment
On the other side, the king and his wife of Zhenbei had already arrived in front of the palace.
It's noon and the sun is shining.
The blue sky is clear and clean, without a trace of clouds, like beautiful jade.
The gilded glazed tiles of the palace look resplendent and majestic in the sunlight, and even the crimson palace walls faintly reveal the taste of bloodthirstiness.
Every time Lu Ruoqing took a step, she heard her heartbeat "dong".
She didn't know what kind of punishment the emperor would give her, so she could only bite the bullet.
Xiao Shaoxuan saw her uneasiness and said in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, there is me." ”
Lu Ruoqing nodded lightly, "Hmm." ”
When he arrived at the Jinluan Palace, Liu Jin personally came out to greet him with a smile, "I've seen Your Highness, Princess." ”
Lu Ruoqing couldn't be happy.
She smiled reluctantly, "Manager Liu, everything has been fine lately." ”
Liu Jin looked at her, a hint of wanting to speak in her eyes flashed, and there was a faint hint of pity.
Lu Ruoqing's heart sank.
It seems that ......, the emperor has a big move coming at her.
Liu Jin beckoned: "Let's go, the emperor is waiting inside." ”
Lu Ruoqing and Xiao Shaoxuan walked in.
In the Jinluan Palace, the emperor sat in a high dragon chair.
"Say hello to my father." The king and his wife of Zhenbei saluted together.
"Excuse me." The emperor's tone was very calm, and he could not hear the joy or anger.
Lu Ruoqing was uneasy in her heart.
But the emperor didn't pay attention to her first, but looked at Xiao Shaoxuan.
The emperor said: "You defeated Tubo with a trick this time, and you also hit Tubo hard, you should be able to keep the border safe for ten years, very good, I am very happy." ”
Xiao Shaoxuan replied: "It's all my father's wisdom and martial arts, which shocks the Quartet. ”
"Flattery is needless to say." The emperor waved his hand, as if he had no interest in patting on the back.
"Yes." Xiao Shaoxuan didn't have any extra words.
"Lu." The emperor began to roll call.
"My daughter-in-law is here." Lu Ruoqing's nervous head sweated, and she bowed her head and said, "Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law left the capital without authorization, and asked my father to forgive my daughter-in-law's mistakes." ”
The emperor said, "You have done a good job." ”
Very good? Lu Ruoqing didn't believe it.
The emperor continued: "When Shaoxuan was injured and disappeared, you searched for a husband, found him, and cured him. Later, for the sake of the people of Mobei City, he disregarded his own life, which was really a model for the daughter-in-law of the royal family. ”
Paragon? How do you sound this, it seems to be mocking her.
Lu Ruoqing pursed her lips and was silent.
The emperor said again: "Your brother, you will soon be a Yongning concubine." Your mother-in-law has always been frail and sickly, and I will give her a special reward for living in the princess's mansion in the future, so that your brother and Yongning will take care of her. ”
Lu Ruoqing's eyes jumped.
The emperor's intention is not only to confine his brother in the princess's mansion, but also to put his mother under house arrest in the princess's mansion.
In her heart, there was a faint resentment and resentment.
What did she do wrong? Isn't it just worried about your husband and looking for her husband?
What's wrong?
And now she's back.
Because she was not obedient as a hostage and did not stay in the capital, the emperor wanted to put her relatives under house arrest.
---- this method is too damaging.
The Emperor commanded, "Call all the people in." ”
Lu Ruoqing was still full of resentment, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but look at His Highness in surprise.
Person? Who?
was wondering, and saw a group of warblers and swallows walking in, several young women.
Lu Ruoqing's eyes were surprised.
In an instant, she guessed a possibility.
The emperor ......, this is ......, is he going to place a concubine for Xiao Shaoxuan?
This may not be a punishment for Xiao Shaoxuan.
But for her, there was nothing more vicious than this punishment for sharing her husband with others.
Lu Ruoqing felt that someone had choked her neck, and it was a little difficult to breathe.
No wonder, Liu Jin looked at her with pity before.
----I see.
The Emperor's voice, as if floating in the clouds, floated high from the throne.
"Xiao Shaoxuan, the king of Zhenbei, defeated the Tubo evil department, and made meritorious contributions to guarding the safety of the border, and specially rewarded one side concubine, two wives, and four palace maids to help the princess share the affairs of the palace, and admired this."
With the emperor's order, there were seven more women in the Zhenbei Palace.
And Lu Ruoqing didn't even see their looks clearly, didn't know what their names were, and what family they came from, so she was forced to accept it.
Hehe, also help the princess share the affairs of the house? She's got to be thankful.
Lu Ruoqing's heart was cold.
She laughed at herself in her heart, it's just that the crime of bullying the king is not just a matter of admitting mistakes.
Even if she weeps bitterly now, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing and bleeding, the emperor will not be soft-hearted in the slightest, let alone change anything.
In that case, fear, fear, worry, all of them are useless.
---- should have come, but still came.
Then she can only accept it calmly.
Lu Ruoqing knelt down calmly and hooked the corners of her mouth, "Thank you for your grace." ”
The Emperor looked at her deeply.
This Lu family, seeing that it is useless to pretend to be a pitiful child, there is no need to pretend anymore.
---- is really unruly.
But there is something more unruly than the princess, that is, His Royal Highness the King of Zhenbei.
"Father, no!" He directly refused, and he didn't even give the emperor face.
The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "What's wrong?" Is it a beauty that your father chose for you, not to your taste? Planning to pick a new batch? Where is it not possible. ”
The meaning of the words is that this batch has to be replaced if you don't want it, and you have to change the soup instead of the medicine.
Xiao Shaoxuan said unhappily: "Father, the sons don't need these women. ”
Why did he add so many strange women to his palace all at once?
What do these women look like, he is not interested, and the devil knows whose eyeliner they are?
There is a father's arrangement, maybe there are other people who have a heart to buy it, and I feel disturbed when I look at it.
"I need to." Lu Ruoqing interjected and said: "It just so happens that a person is idle and bored, and I want to find a companion, talk, and play flower cards. ”
"Are you crazy?" Xiao Shaoxuan turned his head and asked.
Even if he lost his memory, he couldn't believe that what Lu Ruoqing said was true.
immediately had to argue with the emperor, "Father ...... Emperor"
Lu Ruoqing held his hand and shook her head with a wry smile, "Your Highness, don't resist the order." ”
Xiao Shaoxuan is a natural rebel, and he may not listen to the holy decree.
He lost his memory again, and Lu Ruoqing couldn't stop it.
Still said loudly: "Father, my son is working the battlefield, not asking for awards, but asking for his palace to be clean, this requirement is not high, right?" ”
But the emperor didn't answer him, just looked at Lu Ruoqing, "Princess, what do you think of my arrangement?" ”
Lu Ruoqing replied: "The daughter-in-law thinks that the father's arrangement is very good, and the daughter-in-law has no opinion. ”
The emperor said: "Since the princess has no opinion, the princess is still in charge of the affairs of the back house." ”
---- directly ignored Xiao Shaoxuan in the past.
Xiao Shaoxuan said angrily: "Father, the son said that he didn't need it!" What kind of reward is it that you have to give? The son spilled blood and threw his head on the battlefield, in order to return to Beijing to be angry?! ”
The emperor said lightly: "Thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace. ”
Xiao Shaoxuan was extremely annoyed and sneered: "Hehe, my father is not afraid of chilling the hearts of the soldiers of the three armies." ”
The emperor's face was gloomy and unsightly.
This sounds like a threat.
Lu Ruoqing turned her head sideways and pulled Xiao Shaoxuan's sleeve, "Your Highness, don't embarrass me." ”
Originally, she left Beijing without permission, and she had already fallen into the crime of bullying the emperor in front of the emperor, and she had touched the scales.
If you disobey the decree in public, you will be guilty of one more crime.
The emperor has no way to kill Xiao Shaoxuan, a full-fledged son, but it is easy to kill a princess.
You don't even have to kill her.
As long as she kills her mother and brother, she can be better than dead.
This is the emperor's anger and killing power, she can't refuse, she can only admit it.
----So be it.
"Your Highness, I beg you." Lu Ruoqing begged with her eyes.
Xiao Shaoxuan was silent for a while, uncertain.
If you think about it, it is not a wise move to resist the decree in the Golden Luan Palace.
Besides, it's just to take a few women back, and when they return to the palace, they will find a way to deal with it.
He has amnesia, and he is afraid that many things will not be well proportioned, so let the princess make the decision.
Xiao Shaoxuan stopped arguing.
Lu Ruoqing said again: "Your Highness, thank you for your father's grace." ”
Xiao Shaoxuan clenched his fists upwards and said coldly: "The son has thanked his father for his grace." ”
The emperor whispered, "Excuse me." ”
Lu Ruoqing hooked the corners of her mouth.
To be honest, she really looked down on the emperor.
The emperor has no choice but to use his son, who holds military power, so he takes care of her, the princess, and actually uses the battle in the back house, so the emperor is really bad enough.
It's no wonder that in his previous life, the emperor didn't live long.
---- are all retribution.
Lu Ruoqing asked, "Father, will I bring them all back now?" ”
The emperor was slightly moved when he saw her calm face.
This daughter-in-law does have the bearing and composure of a mother.
To be honest, he didn't want to use this kind of yin method to deal with Lu Ruoqing.
If another princess is disobedient and commits the crime of bullying the king, why do you need to spend so much trouble? Just give death!
However, Lu Ruoqing is different.
Xiao Shaoxuan only listens to her, so she can't die, she can only use the dispute in the back house to contain her and let her take care of herself.
But such a method was not interesting even to the emperor himself.
Therefore, he waved his hand and said: "The two ladies and the four maids will bring it back, and the side concubine is going to go to the royal jade, and choose an auspicious day to enter the Duanwang Prince's Mansion." ”
Lu Ruoqing had no objections.
She was blessed and said obediently: "Yes, my daughter-in-law takes the order." ”
Lu Ruoqing didn't look at those women.
No matter what she looks like or what her temperament is, it's the same for her.
---- are the ones to be eliminated.
She turned around and looked at Xiao Shaoxuan with a gentle expression, "Your Highness, let's go back." ”
Xiao Shaoxuan nodded at her, "Okay." ”
At this time, he personally felt that his princess was really dignified and generous, calm and calm, which was by no means comparable to ordinary women.
Her previous willfulness and naughtiness were just coquettish with him.
The woman who can cope with it in front of the emperor, except for the Empress Dowager Huo and Empress Huo back then, is the only one left.
Xiao Shaoxuan took the initiative to take her hand and said, "Let's go, let's go back." ”
Although he had amnesia, he still protected Lu Ruoqing everywhere in this close performance, so the emperor didn't see any clues.
On the contrary, he looked at the backs of the Zhenbei Wang and his wife in the distance, and was faintly envious.
Xiao Shaoxuan disappeared, Lu Ruoqing had to leave Beijing regardless of the crime of bullying the king, and he had to find him regardless of the danger of life and death.
If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?
---- world, only affection is priceless.
