Get married? Fake marriage? Dan Xin only felt that this idea was too ridiculous: "Madam, last night Emperor Tianzhu just proposed to let the slave maid enter the palace, and you let the slave maid marry in a blink of an eye, isn't this too obvious?" ”

"Raw rice is cooked and cooked, he has nothing to say, at most he will anger me a few words, and he will not send the entire Yunfu for you." Izumi solemnly promised: "Don't worry, you only need to make a choice, and I will arrange everything else." ”

I muttered for a long time, and I didn't answer any more.

Izumi knew that she must be in turmoil at the moment, but she had to urge her: "The day after tomorrow, the Emperor will leave for Beijing, and last night he ordered you to recuperate for two months to heal your back injury, and then enter the palace to serve after healing." Lightly, you only have two days to think about it. ”

Hearing this, he looked like a master of the six gods, and said with a little reluctance: "You let the slave think about it......"

Seeing her so embarrassed, I knew that she was reluctant in her heart: "Don't force yourself, everything is still carried by me and Mrs. Tai." ”

I don't know what I'm thinking, I don't explicitly refuse but I shouldn't admit it. Izumi wanted her to be calm and calm alone, so she got up and said, "When you think clearly, tell me your decision." ”

After saying that, Izumi got up and made a gesture to go outside the house. At this moment, a faint voice sounded again, but she hesitated to ask, "Madam...... If I don't enter the palace, will the marriage of the prince be yellow? ”

Izuku hesitated for a moment, subconsciously wanting to avoid this question: "Not necessarily, don't think about it." ”

He seemed to hear something from this sentence, so he fell silent again. For some reason, she suddenly thought of the days when she was recuperating from her injuries in the Star Picking Tower, and the iron-blooded emperor who had visited her.

Although the two never really met at that time, but talked through the screen, the black shadow reflected in it was so lonely and deep that it lingered in his mind for a long time...... It was as if someone had cast a black veil over her heart, depressing and mysterious, causing her to unconsciously want to snoop.

He has served Yun Ci and Xiu successively, and he is familiar with Shen Yu, and he asks himself lightly, other vulgar men and women have long been unable to enter their own eyes. What kind of demeanor, what kind of temperament, and where can they compare to these three people?

But at this moment, I remembered the emperor's peerless charm clearly. The demeanor of the black shadow is evil and crazy, and even a trace of loneliness in the language, as well as the sudden gloom and moodiness...... She remembers it all clearly.

Suddenly, my heart seemed to be stung by something, and an indescribable subtle feeling slowly poured out, gradually occupying the entire heart.

Entering the palace? Maybe she wasn't forced, maybe she was willing but didn't want to admit it. And what she lacks is only the courage to explore.

Thinking of this, he smiled lightly, and replied to Chu Xiu with relief: "Madam, the slave is willing to enter the palace." "Change the environment and feel the life in Yingyuan Palace, it has only been about two years, but it is not very difficult.

For indifferently agreeing to enter the palace, Izumi was very surprised, and hurriedly said: "Whether Cheng'er's marriage is successful or not has nothing to do with you...... You don't push yourself. ”

Hearing this, he shook his head slowly: "It's not reluctant, anyway, I'm already twenty-three, and I don't care about the past two years." Besides, I haven't been to the palace in my life! It's good to go in and have a look, and get a royal touch. ”

"The palace is dangerous, you ......" Izumi still wants to persuade again.

"With the ingenuity of the slave and maid, can't he turn the danger into a disaster?" He pretended to have a smug expression, and then smiled: "Besides, the slave maid is a person from Yunfu, who in the palace can't think of three points?" Even if you want to harm me, I'm afraid you have to weigh it! ”

After saying that, she also got up from her seat and smiled at Xiu Yingying: "Madame doesn't need to persuade again, the slave doesn't feel reluctant at all." You should take the slave maid to Rongjin Hall, and the slave maid wants to personally reply to Mrs. Tai to thank her. ”

*****

After half a pillar of incense, inside the Rongjin Hall.

Whenever she came to see Mrs. Tai, the latter held a string of prayer beads in her hand, as if she was a devout believer. If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Tai herself admitted it herself, it would be hard to imagine that she would not believe in Buddhism. What kind of mind does a person who does not believe in Buddhism but has been worshipping Buddha for many years?

Izuku thought about it for a long time before she realized that every time Mrs. Tai rubbed the rosary in her hand, she was actually thinking about it, just like the Emperor of Heaven liked to stroke the cuffs.

"Would you like to enter the palace?" Mrs. Tai's words to the faint and low heart dragged out Xiu's mind back in time.

Looking at it again, he nodded without hesitation: "The slave is willing to enter the palace and win glory for the Yun Mansion." ”

"It's true that you've won glory, you're a well-informed child, and you've protected you for many years before your death, and now I'm also relying on you." Mrs. Tai nodded with satisfaction: "Since you are willing to enter the palace, I will only ask you one word, and you must answer truthfully." ”

"Slave and maid, listen." The light heart is very low-minded, and only in front of Mrs. Tai will she be so well-behaved and quiet.

Mrs. Tai looked at her carefully, and asked, "Are you planning to enter the palace as a female official?" Or is it a woman who is Nie Qi? ”

"Mrs. Tai......" faintly suspected that she had misheard: "What do you mean ......"

At the same time, Izumi also half-understood when she heard this.

I saw Mrs. Tai holding a rosary in her hand, and continued unhurriedly: "Entering the palace to be a female official is just an excuse, maybe it's true or maybe it's false. Maybe Emperor Tianzhu really takes a fancy to you, or maybe he is just borrowing you to test the Yun family, and wants to see if we have the ambition to get involved in the government and then the harem. ”

This layer was something that neither Xiu nor Danxin had ever thought of, and at this moment, when I heard Mrs. Tai dial it like this, I suddenly realized. But in fact, Izumi didn't want to imagine this infatuated emperor so ruthlessly that he even counted a servant. Although, perhaps, this is true.

There was also a flash of disappointment in her faint eyes, revealing a self-deprecating smile: "I see, it's ......" Obviously, she believed this, and there was no reason not to believe it.

Mrs. Tai was still waiting for a faint reply: "You have to think about it, two different paths, two different endings." ”

After pondering for a moment, he couldn't help but ask: "The slave dares to ask, how will you arrange these two paths?" ”

Mrs. Tai sighed heavily, and her shrewd face floated with the sophistication of reading the world: "If you only enter the palace as a female official, my Yun clan will fully support you behind your back, and you will also strive for the greatest glory for the Yun clan by the side of the Heavenly Emperor." I don't expect you to deliver any news, and I don't need you to deliver the news, but you must always put the rise and fall of the Yun Clan at the top of your mind......"

Mrs. Tai observed her indifferent face, and said slowly: "As for the other personnel in the palace, the Yun family will take care of you behind your back, you don't have to worry about half a point, and the stewards of Jingzhou will also support you in terms of people, money and property." When you reach the age of twenty-five, no matter how bad it is, the Yun family can also keep you safe and leave the palace and find a good way out for you; Or, the Emperor of Heaven will call the shots to find you a good family. ”

"The other way...... And how? He asked lightly.

"Another way, if you want to enter the palace as a concubine...... Mrs. Tai paused for a moment, and a trace of helplessness flashed on her face: "Then the Yun family will not contribute half of the manpower and material resources, everything depends on you to work hard in the harem." Because, once you become Nie Qi's woman, the identity of the Yun clan will only become your talisman. ”

"Talisman?" I was puzzled.

"You've been so clever all day long, can't you even think through this truth?" Mrs. Tai pointed to Xiu, and then sighed lightly: "Let Xiu explain to you." ”

Izuku finally figured it out at this moment, so he replied: "The Heavenly Emperor is already very jealous of the Yun family, so naturally he will not let a woman close to the Yun family gain a foothold in the harem. He is now vacant in the harem, and only Queen Zhuang Xiaoran is alone, probably trying to keep Zhuang's status. Once you enter the palace as a concubine, you will inevitably be hostile to Queen Zhuang, but the Yun family is about to marry the Zhuang family, and you will never have a stalemate with them. ”

A trace of sadness flashed on Izuxiu's face, as if he remembered some heartache in the past, and continued: "Moreover, once you enter the palace, Emperor Tianzhu will not let you give birth to an heir, and even if your child is born, it will die early. Emperor Tianzhu will never let a concubine close to the Yun family give birth to an heir, lest we take advantage of the opportunity to support this child to compete for the position of prince, and disrupt the dynasty to expand its power. ”

The more I talked, the more I felt a chill in my heart, for the Yun family, but also for the light: "Although we may not support your child to compete for the storage position, the Heavenly Emperor will definitely prevent it before it happens and put an end to it fundamentally." And once the Yun family and the Zhuang family marry, and you have no heir, our Yun family will inevitably support Queen Zhuang's heir to ascend the throne...... In this way, the position of the prince will be stable, and the Emperor of Heaven will no longer have any worries. ”

This point is also something that has just been thought through by Mrs. Tai. Emperor Tianzhu let Danxin enter the palace, but he didn't have a little temptation, wanting to see how big the Yun family's ambitions were, and whether they would interfere with the harem and the great cause of establishing a prince. Perhaps, he really looks at it differently, but this look is not so simple.

"No wonder ......" faintly muttered to himself again: "No wonder I persuaded him to marry the prince and Miss Zhuang, and he immediately agreed...... It turned out that he had this intention and wanted to take advantage of my ......"

It seems that she is self-inflicted! Ben thought that the emperor really treated her kindly, and even a little differently. But it turned out that he had already made a plan and wanted to support the Zhuang family in a big way after the Yun family and the Zhuang family got married!

The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind. They all thought that Emperor Tianzhu didn't want the Yun family and the Zhuang family to marry, but he had gradually analyzed the pros and cons clearly, so he would leave the words that let him enter the palace with a light heart!

Indeed, this marriage is just the icing on the cake for the Yun family; But for Zhuang's, it is a soaring chess!

First the queen family, and then the queen mother's family, the generations of queens are selected from the daughters of the Zhuang family! In the long run, the Zhuang family will become the first clan in Nanxi, and even the first clan in the north and south, and can stand shoulder to shoulder with the Yun clan, the first giant!

Of course, the premise is that he will not enter the palace as a concubine. It turned out that Mrs. Tai also saw through this, so she dared to "confront the Emperor" with the Emperor, but it was ridiculous that Xiu herself pretended to be smart, thinking that "overcoming rigidity with softness" was a good chess to deal with the Emperor of Heaven.

There are people outside the world, there is heaven outside the sky, and when it comes to the art of power and scheming, Chuxiu finally found that she is really far from the Emperor of Heaven and Mrs. Tai. Fortunately, she had decided to take the burden off her shoulders, so she didn't feel too depressed and uncomfortable.

At this time, Danxin already had an idea. I saw that she knelt down respectfully and kowtowed to Mrs. Tai, and replied solemnly: "The slave is willing to enter the palace as a female official and contribute to the prosperity of my Yun family." ”

At this moment, Danxin was kneeling and kowtowing, and Izumi's eyes also fell on her. Therefore, neither of them noticed the triumphant smile that flashed in Mrs. Tai's eyes......
