Only Li Yu and Emperor Wuchang were left in the house.

Li Yu looked at the people seated, his eyes were like torches: "Father, the son and her are already husband and wife, and I hope that my father will fulfill the two of us." ”

Emperor Wuchang was stunned, his eyes were empty, and he recalled the past many years ago.

At that time, Emperor Li Hong of Wuchang was just an unfavored hard-working prince, his father did not love him, his mother was born humblely and died of illness early, and even the palace people dared to deduct his food and clothing. At the birthday banquet of the prince's brother, no one wanted to take the initiative to play with him.

Only she, Cui Xuan, the third lady of the Boling Cui family, took the initiative to ask his name, took the initiative to give him food, and took the initiative to take him outside for a snowball fight. After a long time, the brothers killed each other for the supreme position, but only the inconspicuous one survived and successfully ascended to the throne by mistake.

It's a pity that the beautiful and kind-hearted little lady back then has already married a wife. Maybe God has eyes, Cui Xuan's husband died on the battlefield in just a year. Therefore, with the will of the saint, he forcibly ordered her to enter the palace to sleep, and she became the most favored concubine in the Daming Palace. Before Xuan'er died of illness, she repeatedly told him that she had only one last wish, only wishing that Yu'er would be carefree and happy for a lifetime, find a person's heart, and never separate.

I wish to win the heart of one person, and the white head will not be separated.

Emperor Wuchang touched the tears in the corners of his eyes, and slowly spoke: "I promise you, she is a country woman, and it is more than enough to be your side princess, so I will call someone to ......."

"Father, my princess of Qi, can only be her."

Emperor Wuchang slapped the table suddenly, suppressing the anger in his voice: "Yuanjia, your princess must be the lady of a noble family. Whether she dies or becomes your side princess, you choose for yourself, there is no need to discuss. ”

Li Yu raised his eyes to look at him and saluted respectfully: "Thank you father for your success." If the mother concubine knows under the spring, she will be at ease. ”

He understands Emperor Wuchang's temperament, and there is definitely no room for turning back in this matter at present, so it is better to retreat and think about it in the future. Moreover, holding Shen Niangzi in her own hands is the most important thing at the moment.

A moment later, Shen Yining was summoned into the hall.

Shen Yining had prepared for the worst. She took a deep breath, her eyes were piercing, her steps were a little unsteady, and she respectfully bowed to the people sitting in a half-squatting position.

Emperor Wuchang was a little surprised to see that she was in disarray, her hair was crooked and messy, and the left side of her face and neck were a little red and swollen.

"Shen Niangzi, who are you?"

Shen Yining knelt on the ground, her forehead pressed tightly to the ground, sobbing coquettishly, and she didn't dare to speak.

Li Yu, who was standing on the side, said loudly: "Zhenyi just wanted to kill her with his own hands!" ”

Emperor Wuchang sighed helplessly: "Shen Niangzi, you get up first." ”

She still lay on the ground, choked and said: "Sage, the little girl knows that she will not escape death, and asks the sage to give the little girl a cup of dove poison, so that the little girl can die happily." The little girl's master is Qi Shangong, the divine doctor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and asked the sage to send someone to inform him that Sanniang can only repay his old man's nurturing kindness in the next life. Please be rewarded by the saints. ”

This is the only way, Shen Yining can only move out of the master, maybe Emperor Wuchang will leave her a cheap life if he cares about the old relationship. The master once saved the life of Emperor Wuchang, and the title of Qi Shangong, the divine doctor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, was personally sealed by Emperor Wuchang.

When Emperor Wuchang heard this, he was slightly stunned, it seemed that he originally wanted to poison her, or he shouldn't have been.

"Shen Niangzi, I won't kill you, you get up first."

A hanging heart finally sank, and she quickly got up and bowed her head respectfully.

"Yuan Jia has already told me that since the two of you are already husband and wife, you can be regarded as members of the Li family, and I will not pursue the matter of Zhenyi. And I also have to give an explanation to Qi Shangong. I will marry the two of you, and you will be the rightful concubine of King Qi. ”

Shen Yining raised his head suddenly, looked at the person in the seat in disbelief, and then looked at the man beside him who was as cold as ice, moving his cold blue lips but unable to speak.

Emperor Wuchang has already summoned Gonggong Han beside him, and immediately drafted a decree, and he can announce it to the world early tomorrow morning.

Li Yu walked towards her, grabbed her wrist, and took her to salute: "Thank you, father." Sanniang and I retired first. ”

Li Zhenyi watched him come out with Shen Yining, only to say that the cheap woman was still safe, very confused, and her face was full of indignation.

That night, all the guards and inferior maids around Princess Yong'an were given dove poison and committed suicide by taking poison, leaving only Aunt Xiaotong alone by her side. On the grounds of a sudden serious illness, Princess Yong'an was sent by the secret guard overnight to Luoyang's Chonghua Guan to recuperate. The queen mother was reluctant to let her daughter have an abortion, and the abortion medicine was very harmful, and she was afraid that it would leave the root of the disease, so she could only let her have a good pregnancy and give birth to the child quietly. But that's all for another time.

Shen Yining was always pulled forward by him, walked a distance, and finally stopped. He turned and stroked her red and swollen face and neck, his eyes full of distress.

She grabbed his arm, pulled his sleeve tightly, and wept like rain: "Lord, I beg you, I don't want to marry, I really don't want to marry......"

He looked at her, his face gloomy, and asked coldly, "Do you hate this king so much?" ”

She shook her head, then nodded suddenly, looking at him at a loss.

Li Yu took her hand, suppressed the anger in his heart, and shouted in a dumb voice: "You keep saying that you like He Yun, then you met Queen Chu the day before yesterday, and you started to secretly inquire about King Chu again, what is going on?" Is that what you mean by sincerity? ”

Shen Yining looked at him with horror on his face, becoming more and more incredulous, it turned out that he knew everything, it turned out that he had been spying on her.

She angrily shook off his hand and cried out heartbreakingly, "Are you crazy? Why do you keep spying on me? Why are you! ”

He looked at her coldly, and his anger was already suppressed to the extreme: "Shen Yining, yes, it's this king who is crazy!" Why? If it weren't for this king, you would have committed suicide by taking dove poison like the slave behind Princess Yong'an. ”

She looked at him with scarlet eyes, hung her hand in vain, and stumbled to turn and walk forward.

Ningyuan Building in the west courtyard.

Koi was guarding the door, and when he heard the intermittent miserable crying from the inner room, he didn't dare to disturb, but his heart was very depressed. How many high-ranking nobles are in a hurry to find ways to marry the prince, why is Shen Niangzi so unhappy! Alas, a woman's heart, a needle under the sea, I don't understand!

Shen Yining covered herself in the quilt, cried and slept, slept and cried, and was out of breath.

As the old saying goes, it is better to be a poor wife than a rich concubine. Why was she forced to be someone else's concubine, isn't it just knowing three and being three! Forced to be trapped in this deceitful palace, one must serve the princess of the noble family with all his heart, the second must endure his three wives and four concubines, and the third must treat the unreasonable father-in-law and doting mother-in-law who want to kill her with a smile! She's so unlucky!
