Chapter 202 Righteous Daughter
Gao Ziang knelt on the ground for a long time, and Gao Junming finally slowly turned his head to look at him: "You get up and speak." ”
He took two steps forward and called in a low voice, "Father." ”
"You are deceitful!"
"My son understood. It's a big deal that you accept Zhou Cairen as a righteous daughter in private, so it won't be a bully. At this time, Zhou Cairen was the righteous daughter of the Gao family, and there was no lack of identity. ”
Gao Junming glared at him with slanted eyes: "You kid has already thought of a countermeasure!" ”
"Because my son is also worried about the fate of the Gao family."
"Worried about the fate of the Gao family, and still take the entire Gao family?"
"Father, you are serious. This time, the Gao family will not be damaged, but will make the emperor think that the Gao family inherits the holy will. Besides, my son is facing Wanning, she is really pitiful, and I will do my best to help her. ”
The second half of his words made Gao Junming angry when he heard it: "It's Wanning again, I really can't see you like this!" ”
At this moment, Xie Xiwen's maid Jin'er came in with tea.
His wife's personal maid naturally has an unusual status, different from others. Unless there are very special circumstances, there will be no obstruction at the door. Probably Xie Xiwen knew what her husband was thinking, and sent Jin'er over to take a look at the situation.
Gao Ziang immediately took the tea: "Jin'er, you go down." ”
"Yes, young master."
He served his father tea diligently, and smiled on his face: "Father, you take a sip of tea to dissipate your anger." ”
Gao Junming didn't accept his affection, and was still annoyed: "You immediately disappear from front of me now." ”
"Father, don't be angry. You'll still see your son for dinner later. I have wronged you, but I still hope that you can dissipate your anger. The son stepped back first, and I'll see you later. With that, he turned and walked out of his father's study.
Gao Junming listened to his words in a brisk tone, and his anger was even more indiscriminate. This lover son is really not good at scolding, and he can't beat well.
On the way back to the room, a stone in Gao Ziang's heart fell to the ground. 's father was angry that he threw himself on Wanning, which means that he has passed the hurdle of sending Zhou Cairen into the palace.
After Wanning was busy for a while, she would discuss with her and recognize her father as her father-in-law. In this way, everyone will be able to avoid the charge of deceit. Even if the emperor knew that the Zhou family and the Gao family were nothing more than distant relatives in the past, and at that time, Zhou Cairen had already become the righteous daughter of the Gao family, and the relationship was worthy of the name.
What he hopes most is of course that everything goes well with Wanning, and now that the human and physical evidence is complete, the emperor should give her an answer as soon as possible and return justice to Uncle Li. With Wanning's wish, she can marry into the Gao family without worry.
Tonight's emperor was extremely interested in Zhou Cairen's Yunyan Pavilion, and he came early. happily had dinner with Zhou Cairen, and sat on the couch with her to chat, probably not going to leave tonight.
Of course, part of his high interest was due to Wan Ning's return, and Zhou Cairen would be happy about it.
Zhou Cairen, who was in a good mood, seemed to be not full, and she filled a few more pieces of dessert brought by the maid to her mouth.
The emperor, who had been staring at her, suddenly spoke: "Cairen, you can still eat!" ”
"The poor concubine is happy!"
The emperor fell into a moment of contemplation, raised his head and ordered: "Cairen and Li Wanning stay, and the others go out, I have a few words to tell them." ”
With this speech, the room was instantly silent, and the others retreated one after another, leaving only Wan Ning standing, waiting for the emperor's instructions.
But the emperor has been chatting with Zhou Cairen without saying a word, and when it comes to interesting places, the two laugh happily, and seem to have completely forgotten the existence of Wanning.
"Your Majesty, don't you have something to say? Wan Ning has been standing for a long time. ”
"Cairen spoils this little girl so much, and she feels distressed when she stands for a while. In my impression, this little girl is very bold, stubborn, and even a little arrogant. ”
"That's your feelings, Your Majesty, Wan Ning is not wrong in front of the poor concubine."
The smile on the emperor's face was faint, and he turned his head and said, "Li Wanning, things are done very beautifully!" In such a short time, the people were escorted back to the capital. ”
"Your Majesty, your order, the slaves and maids dare not delay in the slightest."
"Everyone has been arrested, then I want to hear what you are going to do with me."
Wan Ning knew that she shouldn't give the emperor any ideas, so she said: "Your Majesty, you are a wise holy lord, and you will definitely return justice to your father, and my father Jiuquan is also glad to be your courtier during his lifetime." The slave believes that even if the slave and maid do not enter the palace to ask the emperor, the emperor can still return justice to your father, it is only a matter of time. ”
The emperor turned his face to Zhou Cairen and said, "Look at your maid, you can talk better than you." ”
"The maid of the poor concubine, of course. Usually, when you're not there, you can't make her happy with the poor concubine? Some time ago, I really couldn't do without her. ”
"If you believe in me so much, why do you have to come and ask me to give your father justice?"
Wan Ning replied unhurriedly: "The slave maid just thinks that morality should be based on heaven and earth, and those who harm living beings should not continue to do evil. ”
She knows very well that this can only be said here, and she can only talk about things. Wan Ning is still very calm. How to say that Zuo Linghong at this time was the emperor's courtier, and he was promoted to the official under the recommendation of others.
If you blindly count Zuo Linghong's mistakes, isn't it saying that the emperor will not use people? For those with bad deeds, you also want to reuse.
Although she didn't want to arrest Zuo Linghong immediately, she would kill him when she wanted to.
Wan Ning carefully took out the imperial fan and wrench, knelt in front of the emperor, and respectfully presented them to the emperor: "Your Majesty, return your holy relics." Slaves and maids are grateful to you for your heavenly grace all their lives. ”
The emperor took it and put it in front of Zhou Cairen, and she played with it in her hand.
"You've just been talking to me about morality for a long time, and I'm asking you what you plan to do with the person who poisoned your father."
"Of course, it's life for life!"
When Zhou Cairen heard her say this, he straightened up and cheered up. She was frightened by Wan Ning in a cold sweat, and she was still calm.
"Your Majesty, the poor concubine really has to blame this girl for a few words."
"You say."
"No matter how big a mistake Lord Zuo makes, how to deal with the court officials, it is up to the emperor to decide, she is a little girl who really shouldn't discuss the government and politics."
The emperor smiled slightly, but fortunately he only had an understatement: "The little girl is ruthless enough!" ”
"Despising the lives of others and ignoring the laws of the court, I don't know how many lives will be broken in the hands of such people. The person who lost his loved ones, because of his father's departure, his mother also ......" Wanning seemed to be unable to speak, just knelt there with her head lowered.
Without saying anything, the Emperor understood that she meant to ask for his father to be the master again.
