Shen Zhe was dumbfounded by the question, he was not a person who could lie, and he was far inferior to his brother, he just tried to make himself look calm and calm, at least tell the emperor about these things first, and then decide how to deal with Min'er. Study.. o

However, the situation in front of him reminded Shen Zhe of Qinzhou four years ago, when the emperor gave her to himself, and if she was another woman, she might have accepted her fate, even if she didn't accept her fate, she wouldn't have the courage to break back to the palace and ask the emperor why. Although Qiu Min'er is no longer the little girl outside Yuanzhou City back then, she is the same as four years ago, she can't allow others to influence or decide her life, and the emperor keeps saying that Min'er is strong, which is not an exaggeration at all. Shen Zhe now feels more and more that only a hero like her brother is worthy of her.

They parted unhappily, Shen Zhe walked out in silence, Qingya saw it outside, guessing that nothing good would happen, and the queen quickly called her in. Min'er didn't scare Shen Zhecai to say casually, she really wanted to take this step, although she didn't know where this step could go, even if Xiang Ye completely left her, she would have to give herself an explanation.

After Shen Zhe left the palace, he did not go straight to Beizhuang, he had to beware of many people following his whereabouts, and after he was sure that no one could detect his whereabouts, he quietly appeared in Beizhuang on the outskirts of the city, and his brother was hanging his seriously injured arm, marching in the sand table.

"Did you change your medication today?" Shen Zhe stood in front of the door, his face was not angry, he was not a hairy boy of Twenty Lang, he also had a temper.

"Your tone?" Xiang Ye glanced at him and said casually, "Why did you come in broad daylight, you have to be careful, Min'er may be following you." ”

"What if I do bring her?"

"Shen Zhe?"

The atmosphere was a little tense, if the emperor was really angry, Shen Zhe would still be a little jealous, avoided his brother's gaze, and said coldly: "There is something important to tell you, my plan is afraid that it will conflict with the queen, and if it drags on, the palace doesn't know what big things will happen." ”

Xiang Ye put down the things in his hand and frowned: "What's wrong?" ”

Shen Zhe told Min'er what she said to the emperor, but he didn't know what Min'er was going to do, and it sounded like Liang Ruojun was forced to force Concubine Shu to do something to Min'er, she should have wanted to use her own harm to force the emperor out.

"She's serious." Shen Zhe said, "She said that Concubine Shu is innocent, if she encounters misfortune, don't pursue Concubine Shu, and treat Concubine Shu and her sons well." ”

Xiang Ye's uninjured hand clenched his fist tightly, and the injured hand clenched his fist was a pain in his heart, and the pain made his head very clear, he knew Min'er too well, Min'er would definitely do what he said.

Shen Zhe saw that the emperor's expression was shaken, so he said: "It's too late to stop now, otherwise no one will be able to stop her." ”

Xiang Ye slowly closed his eyes, showing a helpless smile, and when he opened his eyes again, he turned around and took a small flag and planted it in the sand table, and said to Shen Zhe: "Five years later, I want Liang Guo to give this piece of land to me." ”

"Brother? You're not worried about her? ”

"In your opinion, I'm just thinking about Min'a, right?" Xiang Ye turned his back to Shen Zhe and said, "Why don't you want to think about Concubine Shu?" After she married into the Kishu Palace, she gave everything to me and this family, and then Min'er came, she was jealous and struggled, and even wanted to do something to hurt her, but every time in the end, Min'er was never really hurt, and it was Shuguifei who tortured herself all over her body. ”

Shen Zhe also understood the former sister-in-law, and reminded the emperor: "Since you understand, if you want to send away Concubine Shu now, it is equivalent to asking for her life, and she would rather die in the palace than leave." ”

Xiang Ye continued: "If I don't have a relationship with her, where did Feng'er and Hao'er come from, although the love has come to an end, and I can no longer arouse the excitement of male and female love, but I can't let her down and hurt her." But you know, she has struggled countless times, even if I go back to the palace today to level a bowl of water between her and the queen, after she has been well for a while, she will repeat it again, again and again for four years, and if this continues, she will definitely go crazy in the end. ”

The emperor turned around and said to Shen Zhe firmly: "There is no such thing as the best of both worlds in this world, I am destined to be a negative person, and I may be able to live together peacefully if I am another woman, but the two of them cannot." Min'er is too smart and too strong, Shuguifei is too entangled and too cowardly, if they can really fight, I have nothing to fear, but I can't fight, can I just toss over and over again for a lifetime? ”

Shen Zhe didn't have the trouble of this blessing of Qi people, he couldn't understand what his brother was thinking, since he was so resolute and ruthless, it was better to kill Concubine Shu with one sword, wouldn't it be clean? Of course, no one can do that, even if it is his turn, he can't do such a thing.

But he believed what the emperor said, if the emperor went back like this, the palace seemed to be restored to tranquility, but in fact, many problems were never solved, the queen was about to give birth in the first month, if the birth was a concubine, the concubine would definitely drive herself crazy for the sake of the prince, if the princess was born, and the emperor still did not have the intention of establishing the prince, the concubine would still drive herself crazy.

Thinking about it like this, Shen Zhe seemed to understand.

"How's your preparation?" Xiang Ye asked.

"It's all arranged."

The emperor bowed his head and instructed Shen Zhe: "Then do it immediately, no matter what Min'er wants to do, you are before her, I will appear when it is time to appear, you don't have to worry." ”

Shen Zhe asked, "What if things don't develop according to your expectations, if Concubine Shu always refuses to make a move?" ”

Xiang Ye shook his head: "She will." ”

Before leaving, Shen Zhe said to his brother: "I didn't expect that one day, what will force you to be helpless will be a matter between women." I have to admit that you said so much for the sake of Concubine Shugui, but you finally chose the queen, if you give up the queen, you don't have to go through so much trouble, one sentence is enough. ”

Xiang Ye didn't speak, he was destined to be sorry for the Jiang family in this life, he had already been self-aware, but did he really have to be entangled for a lifetime? He deserves it, this is his sin, but why should Min'er bear all this? Even if they give up Min'er and choose Shuguifei, they will not be happy in the future, Shuguifei will still doubt and have low self-esteem again and again, but if you choose Min'er, at least Min'er will be happy.

In the blink of an eye, October will pass, the emperor is still not heard, and this year's winter is particularly cold. The queen did not ask about the government again, but she still met with some people every day, Shen Zhe and Song Yuan were the guests of the Shangyang Palace, and the rules set for the Shangyang Palace in the past no longer existed. The gossip was not covered by the heavy snow, after all, there were still many people in the court who tried to keep the queen away from the court.

On this day, Concubine Shu returned from the Longevity Palace, holding the three princes in her hands, and was reciting poems with the child, perhaps because the child was getting smarter and smarter, and she was praised by the Queen Mother, she was not in a bad mood, and her spirit looked much better than in the past.

The group passed by the edge of the Taiye Pool, and Leng Buding heard the voice of the woman in front of him, and two women turned out from behind the cedar, one pulled the other and said: "Sister-in-law, how can you say such a thing to the queen mother, if the mother is really angry, can you afford it?" ”

Concubine Shu recognized these two people, one was Song Yuan's sister Song Linglong, and the other was his wife, and Mrs. Song was excitedly saying: "Linglong, tell me the truth, is the matter between the queen and your brother true, do you know anything?" ”

Concubine Shu's heart tightened, and she said loudly: "What are you talking about? ”

Song's sister-in-law was so nervous when she saw that the concubine was coming, but no matter how the concubine asked, they would not mention Fang Cai's words again, and Song Linglong even excused the queen to wait to see her, and hurriedly wanted to leave, but no matter how she urged her sister-in-law, Mrs. Song just refused to go with her.

Linglong didn't want to pull and pull with her sister-in-law in front of Concubine Shu, so she had to leave alone, leaving Mrs. Song standing in place, biting her lip tightly, with an angry and excited face, Concubine Shu looked at it again and again, and asked, "Madam, are you okay?" ”

Mrs. Song trembled all over, and shook her head stiffly, originally wanting to take a few steps back to make way for Concubine Shugui, but she didn't want to fall to the ground with a soft foot, and the whole person fell into the snow.

"Quickly help Mrs. Song up." Concubine Shugui ordered the palace people around her, she looked up at Song Linglong's hurried steps, and then looked down at Mrs. Song lost her soul, and said gently, "Go to Anle Palace to bake the fire, your clothes are wet, it's terrible to go back to be sick like this." ”

Mrs. Song was so stiff that she was frozen, her face was whiter than snow, and the people from Anle Palace took her away, but she didn't resist, and left with Concubine Shugui.

When he arrived at Anle Palace, when his body was warm and his spirit was relaxed, Er Zhen brought Mrs. Song to the front of Concubine Shu, only to hear the concubine ask kindly: "Did you quarrel with Linglong, what's wrong with your sister-in-law?" ”

Mrs. Song just shook her head, her lips were about to be bitten by herself, but she looked very much like a person, and Concubine Shu seemed to see her own shadow on her body.

"Actually, I heard what you said, and if you don't open your mouth now, I won't persecute you." Concubine Shugui said kindly, "But I also want to remind you that the affairs in the Shangyang Palace should not be asked by you, no matter what happened to the queen and your family Song Yuan, you can only turn a blind eye in your life, you still have a son, even if you don't care about yourself, you have to think about your child." ”

Mrs. Song looked at Concubine Shu in astonishment: "Niangniang...... You—What do you mean by that? ”

Concubine Shu said: "Your son-in-law is very popular with our Second Highness, and he will definitely be a useful talent in the future, and those who grow up with the emperor have an unlimited future, of course, we also want Our Second Highness to be the emperor, right?" ”

Mrs. Song nodded, and Concubine Shu said, "Then tell me, what are you and Linglong arguing about, what happened to the queen mother and Song Yuan?" ”
