Su Meng held the wine glass tightly and grabbed the wine bottle hard, her knuckles protruded and white, her nails turned completely white, and her teeth were sore from clenching her teeth.

Years of life experience in the palace told her that at this time she should respectfully reply to the previous sentence: "The slave maid does not dare to have a delusional heart, and the slave maid must abide by her duty." ”

But she didn't know why she just couldn't speak, she stubbornly didn't let herself be subservient in front of him. She knew that she was just a slave, and she also knew that it was a great blessing for her to be his concubine.

She is not delusional, she doesn't want to fight for the status of a wife, but she needs respect, she doesn't dare to want to be equal to him, but she hopes that he can treat her as a dignified person.

She wondered if she had been favored by him for a few days, and then she became arrogant. Anyway, she didn't speak, although she didn't dare to vent the dissatisfaction in her heart, she didn't follow him to say anything against her will.

Ye Gu Yuanming didn't like to listen to such official coping words, and he didn't have the intention of waiting for her to answer.

He only paused for a moment, and then continued: "I may take concubines in the future, maybe I will linger between the Qin Mansion and the Chu Pavilion, and I may sleep with any other woman casually. You can be jealous, you can stop me by any means, even if you kill all the other women, I won't blame you. ”

He said to himself, and Su Meng listened in a daze. Which prince is not like this? It is already grace for him to be able to give himself the identity of a concubine, and he even connived at himself to be a 'jealous woman', which is simply more arrogant power than a wife.

"I can-spoil you, but don't think I'm spoiling yours without a bottom line. There are some things in my heart that you can't touch, you have to keep in mind. ”

Ye Gu Yuanming took a box very seriously and opened it, and there was a pair of straw sandals in it. "This was brought out of the prison by me, and it was made up for me by the imperial sister-in-law."

He pointed to the purse hanging at the head of the bed and said, "That purse is the same, it was also made for me by the imperial sister-in-law." ”

He took out a phoenix hairpin from his arms: "This is worn by the imperial sister-in-law, and I got it from Hui Xue." ”

Su Meng seemed to understand something, but she couldn't believe it. His sister-in-law is the crown princess, and whoever dares to have the idea of trespassing is a big crime of killing his head.

"No one is allowed to touch these things, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless." Ye Gu Yuanming was finally willing to shift his gaze to Su Meng, but this gaze was a little cold.

"If you really want to marry me, you swear to me. Swear by your sister, your own life, and your future flesh and blood, 'Death will not do anything that is unfavorable to the royal sister-in-law; As long as it is beneficial to the imperial sister-in-law, death must also be done. ’”

Su Meng still can't react a little, even if he swears, he should swear to be loyal to him for the rest of his life, right? What does marrying him matter to the crown princess? Why make such a ridiculous oath?

"I admit I'm not a good husband, and I'm not a good man. I have no complaints if you kill me, cut me, or chop me up, but if you dare to do something to be sorry for the imperial sister-in-law, I will not let you go even if I am a ghost. ”

Ye Gu Yuanming actually didn't need to tell her so much, he just took precautions. He no longer marries a wife, and Su Meng is like a mistress in the house.

No secret can be kept for a lifetime, not to mention that affection is always on the surface. If you want to hide it, you can't hide it, Ye Gu Yuanming never hoped that paper could hold the fire.

It's better to make it clear in advance, if you can accept it, you can accept it, and if you can't accept it, you won't accept it.

Su remembered what Ye Gu Yuanming had said when he was outside the prison gate that day, he said that his life was saved by the third brother, the ninth brother and the imperial sister-in-law, and he would not allow any harm to them.

The reason why he took revenge on himself was not because he framed him and imprisoned him in prison, but because his spinelessness affected Concubine Hui, who was the mother of the Third Highness.

"I know, the Third Highness, the Ninth Prince, and the Crown Princess are the most important people in your heart." Su Meng cautiously raised her head and looked at him inquiringly.

The corners of his mouth pulled out a bitter smile, and he shook his head gently: "It's different, the most important thing is naturally that there can only be one person, and that is the imperial sister-in-law." ”

"You" Su Meng said nothing but didn't dare to say it.

Ye Guyuan looked at her fixedly, she lowered her head and didn't mean to continue. "If you have something to say, you can say anything today."

"Your wife's position is reserved for her?" Su Meng's voice was very small, and her heart was beating rapidly, she was afraid that His Royal Highness would suddenly be angry.

Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness the Sixth was as calm as he didn't hear it, and just when Su Meng thought that he really didn't hear clearly or wouldn't reply to her words even if he heard clearly, Ye Gu Yuanming sighed lightly.

"It's not for her, it's just empty because of her." The loneliness emanating from Ye Gu Yuanming's body made Su Meng's heart feel a trace of pain, not the pain of jealousy, but the heartache from the heart.

She felt sorry for him for such an infatuated person as he had the wrong roots, this was an infatuated dream that could never be fulfilled. He would rather sink into a dream than wake up, and this dream is so fragile that it will shatter to pieces if he is not careful.

'Not for her, but empty for her.' Ye Gu Yuanming saw it very thoroughly, he didn't have extravagant hopes, he just wanted to watch.

The third prince is different, he doesn't marry a wife or take a concubine, he is 'for her', he seems to be weaker than any prince, but he is bolder than any prince.

He dared to suggest that Su Ruoshui should stop calling him the third brother, and he dared to run to the Taigong to make it clear to Su Ruoshui that he was willing to take her to escape. It's just that Su Ruoshui clearly rejected him every time, and the refusal was crisp.

There are really not many people in the court who are particularly concerned about the Xufu Door Destruction Case, and everyone has been arguing and shouting for so long, everyone knows it in their hearts. is obviously murderous, the scapegoat must be Shi Songtao, the ending has been decided, there is no fresh material to pick up, naturally not many people pay attention.

After the trial, Yu Dongqing was unexpectedly involved, which many people did not expect. The next morning, he played a concert with Su Yuangong to intercede for Yu Dongqing.

He asked for a new trial, and the sentence of 'full of beheading' was too heavy, after all, Yu Dongqing had meritorious service in the west, and he had not committed any offences in more than a year as an official.

The emperor didn't see the dossier, and he didn't know whether the sentence was heavy or not, so he asked Ye Guyuanhong why the dossier was not reported.

"I didn't finish it yesterday, but I will definitely be able to present it today." Ye Gu Yuanhong just made an excuse casually, where does the file need to be sorted out? It's just a transcript of the court.

"Okay, this case is very important, I will discuss it after reading the file."
