The hall was silent, the needle could be heard, and the eyes of everyone present were all staring at the girl who fell down the steps, some were playful, some were angry, and all kinds of emotions were different...... Dou Yi and his wife raised their hands several times to summon their daughter back, but they couldn't say a word.

What to say? said that her daughter was young and didn't understand the rules, and hoped that the emperor would forgive her sins?

Dou Yi really wanted to do this, but this matter was by no means something that could be easily passed by a sentence of "childish words...... You must know that Dou Yi was originally a minister, and he was the son-in-law of the Yuwen family of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and he married the eldest princess of Xiangyang in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

Not to mention, after the emperor heard that there were Dou Yi's wives and children among the nobles captured by Murong Sanzang, he didn't care about their identities in the Northern Zhou clan, and sent them all back, so as to reunite Dou Yi's family.

These two items alone are enough to make Dou Yi grateful, even if he immediately serves the horse, he will not hesitate to do so.

Embarrassment is embarrassing here, the emperor is so kind to their family, his daughter dares to speak for the Ashina clan of the queen of Zhou regardless of the emperor's wishes, how will the ministers think, and how will Your Majesty think?

So Dou Yi was shocked and frightened at the moment, pointing at his daughter's back, and hated to pull her back immediately and cover her mouth!

Is it useful to pull it back? The fire has already been lit, and you can still shovel a piece of sand and cover it as if nothing had happened?

How can it be?!

"I'm really confused, it's not good to bring anyone, but I want to bring her over, how should I be good now, how should I end?! It's because I spoil her too much on weekdays, and she is so spoiled that she is lawless, if she was strictly restrained at the beginning, how could she stand up and speak for Zhou Hou regardless of the severity," Dou Yi's heart was cold, and he was annoyed in his heart, "The life of my Dou family is not as good as your uncle's face?" Well, now the whole family will be killed by your evil obstacle! ”

Inherited from the Sui and Tang clans in the north and south, the interests of the family are above all else, and the family affection is weak, no matter how much Dou Yi loves his daughter, he will not sit idly by and watch her ruin the Dou family!

But what made him feel extremely helpless was that in front of everyone's eyes, he wanted to force his daughter back, but he didn't dare to make the slightest move, so he could only sit in place and stare dryly, and shouted in a hurry: "Hui'er, what are you doing?" Don't you kowtow to Your Majesty and apologize?! ”

Fortunately, Dou Hui is still a six- or seven-year-old child, and reprimanded her for taking the initiative to ask for guilt, maybe this matter will be a big deal, no matter how angry Your Majesty is in his heart, he must not have anything to do with a child, at most he will reprimand Dou Yi for having no way to discipline him...... Then, Dou Yi didn't dare to think about it anymore: his Dou Yi's daughter offended His Majesty, and in order to protect the Dou family, he could only take the initiative to clean up the portal to show his loyalty!

"Hui'er, quickly apologize to Your Majesty!" Thinking of this, Dou Yi was terrified and distressed, and his expression became more and more serious...... The girl, who seemed to ignore her father's command, bowed heavily at the bottom of the stairs, and said:

"Isn't the little girl fighting for my uncle, Da Zhou is difficult to stop His Majesty's sharpness, and he collapses at the first touch, doesn't it prove that His Majesty is destined to return? The little girl just thinks that my aunt is a weak woman, who has never been closed in the deep palace, and she doesn't know everything, how can she withstand His Majesty's might?

"Although my uncle lost the country and fled south to Shuzhong, he can only stay in a corner of the land in the future, but after all, he is still the lord of Zhou, and my aunt is still the master of a country.

After speaking, she knelt down and kowtowed again, Dou Yi's face at this time was already as pale as paper, his hands and feet were cold, he hurriedly got up and pleaded guilty, bowed heavily to the ground, kowtowed, and praised in his mouth: "The minister has no way to discipline, the little girl has no words, and please ask Your Majesty to surrender!" “

Dou Yi was already in a cold sweat behind him, and he was trembling at the foot of the stairs and didn't dare to make a sound...... Gao Wei stood up from the throne, looked around to the left and right, sighed deeply, and then turned his eyes to the father and daughter, stepped down the imperial steps, and said:

"I originally thought that I would be able to take back a piece of sincerity if I treated people with sincerity, but now that I look at it, it is my wishful thinking. Many people are courtiers here with me, and they still think about the Yuwen clan in their hearts, and even defend it everywhere regardless of my will. ”

Gao Wei glanced at Dou Yi coldly, his face could not hide the disappointment, Dou Yi's hands and feet were wooden, and he just wanted to defend himself, and when he saw the emperor waving his hand and sighing, he said: "Dou Yi, among the ministers from Guanzhong, I value you the most, because you and Liang Rui are the first generals to surrender to me, I know that you are inseparable from you to govern Guanzhong, so I am very tolerant, as for the fact that you were once a courtier of the Zhou State, I don't care about it at all, as long as you are loyal to me from now on." ”

"But since you are already my great Qi courtier, and now you indulge your daughter to speak for pseudo-Zhou everywhere, what do you mean? Could it be that it is not good to deceive the steel knife? ”

The emperor's tone was indifferent, and he couldn't hear the joy and anger at all, Dou Yi became more and more frightened in his heart, and was about to speak, when he heard Dou Hui speak:

"Your Majesty, the courtiers are not speaking for the Great Zhou, the courtiers are saying this, just for the sake of the Great Qi."

"-Hui'er, shut up!" Poor Dou Yi was interrupted one after another, and finally began to collapse, he had already decided that he could not give this evil obstacle another chance to speak, otherwise the whole family would seem to have no place to be buried! As long as the family can be saved, even if he is allowed to hold the emperor's thigh and beg for mercy regardless of decency!

But before he could speak, he saw the emperor look at him and told him to shut up, and then the emperor stared at the little girl with interest and asked, "In this way, your family is not only not a capricious second minister, but a loyal minister loyal to Great Qi?" You said that you are thinking about my Daqi, but I want to hear how you think about Daqi. ”

"......" Dou Yi had to shut up, Dou Hui still knelt on the ground, never raised his head, but he spoke clearly, never saw the slightest panic, and calmly replied:

"Your Majesty, although my aunt is now a prisoner of His Majesty, how to deal with it should be all up to Your Majesty's will, and it should not be intervened by the courtiers, but my aunt has a special status, even if Your Majesty hates the Yuwen family, she should not be humiliated by her, not to mention fine clothes and food, but the least respect should be preserved."

"Respect? Do you think that if Yuwen Yong destroyed my kingdom today, he would treat my wife and children well? I'm afraid he can't wait for my wife and concubine to take care of their cheap karma! The emperor laughed angrily, and a momentum like Mount Tai suddenly rose on his body, and the violence in the Gao family's bones was instantly revealed, "Didn't he say before that if he could destroy me, he would kill all my heirs, so that all my wives and concubines and children would be slaves and prostitutes?" Then you say, why should I be kind to his wife? ”

The ministers were dumbfounded, the emperor was so angry that he got into trouble with a little girl, Dou Yi This is completely the rhythm of the nine clans! Dou Yi was already disheartened at this time and collapsed to the ground...... Under the emperor's anger, how could this little girl bear it?

She just barely managed to support it, and it was good that she didn't cry on the spot, but Dou Hui was different from ordinary women since she was born, she was resolute and resolute, although she had already been scared with tears, she had to choke up for her family and replied:

“…… The etiquette is like this, if the ancient sage monarch wants to sit firmly in the world, he must be domineering and domineering, how can he achieve his wish by deterrence alone? Even though His Majesty has great talents, it is the destiny of heaven, and it is expected to sweep away the world, but how to maintain the great cause after sitting firmly in the country is nothing more than relying on etiquette. ”

Gao Wei's eyes flashed with surprise, his face was still murderous, and he sneered: "The set of etiquette is a Han thing, your mother is the eldest princess of Xiangyang of Zhou Kingdom, isn't the Yuwen clan a Hun species?" He doesn't respect any etiquette, should I believe it? ”

The ministers have now seen that something is wrong, and their faces are strange, who knows that although the emperor is domineering, he is the most polite and lawful, what does he mean by moving these words to intimidate a sixteen-year-old girl?

If she was just unhappy, she spoke out about herself one after another, and it would be too immoral to scare her......

"It is precisely because the Yuwen clan does not respect the law of etiquette and has no temperament of the son of heaven, so the people who win the world will not be them, but Your Majesty!" The little girl said solemnly, the emperor stared at her for a while, and suddenly laughed loudly, pointed at her and said to Dou Yi, who looked confused:

“…… Sure enough, it is worthy of its reputation, your daughter is well taught, but it's a pity that it's a woman, if she is a man, I'm afraid that I will shame the men of the world in the future! ”

Dou Yi was stunned for a while, he didn't understand why the emperor suddenly changed his mind again, and he didn't know where the emperor's sentence 'really deserved its name' started, could it be that His Majesty had heard of his daughter before?

"By the way, how old is this girl?" The Emperor suddenly asked again.

"Six...... Six years old, almost seven years old. Your Majesty......? Dou Yi was still ignorant.

The emperor bowed his head with satisfaction, "Well, it's just a little older than my crown prince, such a famous girl, she should be worthy of my son!" ”
