Her voice was clear in the inner sanctum: "The concubine has been married to His Majesty for four years, and she has not come out yet, and it is a passing one." After marrying into His Majesty's house, he failed to share His Majesty's worries, and repeatedly caused incidents and stirred up the wind and rain, which was a second offense. has been married for many years, and the heart is old love, which is three transgressions. The concubine knows that she is deeply sinful, and wants to go to the temple to guard the spirit, and the green lantern ancient Buddha has this life, and I beg your majesty for permission! ”

The Sui family has not given up yet, and the Sui family actually invited themselves to go to the Taimiao to guard the spirit?!

For a moment, there was an uproar.

Xiao Yanxing was also stunned for a moment, raised his hand and pressed down, signaling everyone to be quiet. Ordered someone to declare Sui Nuanzhi into the temple.

Sui Nuanzhi came in and knelt on top of the hall with a plop.

She said the same thing again, as if she had made up her mind. Sui Nuanzhi felt that she was not a noble person, and her actions were not only unacceptable to continue to deceive herself, but also to protect her family.

These days, Sui Nuanzhi closed the door and thought about everything during this time.

In the past, Sui Nuanzhi was locked up in the backyard, and as far as the eye could see, it was naturally the triviality of the ladies of the back house. Now that the information is overwhelming, she is no longer closed, and her eyes can see the whole picture of the incident, Sui Nuanzhi slowly saw through some things. The elders in the family praised her for being transparent, maybe she was really more transparent than others. Sui Nuanzhi knew that the Sui family's desperate fight would only lead to their own destruction in the end.

Xiao Yanxing's attitude towards the family is obviously destined to cause trouble the more prosperous the family will be in the future. The Sui family is actually the best to go with the flow. The more you do, the more wrong you are, and the more you want, the easier it is to lose. It is better to stop losses in time.

She came here to bear the family's mistakes with her own strength, hoping that Xiao Yanxing could open up.

Xiao Yanxing looked at her for a long time, but thoughtfully.

This Sui family may be a little self-inflictedly smart, and it is indeed more eye-catching than the rest of the Sui family.

"Yes."

Sui Nuanzhi's heart was shocked, and he didn't look up at Xiao Yanxing. Then he crossed his hands and put the backs of his hands to his forehead, and knelt down reverently.

"Concubine, thank you, Lord Longen."

After Sui Nuanzhi finished speaking, he left the Zichen Palace. When he returned to Zhong Cui Palace, he ordered someone to pack his bags. She didn't move all the belongings in the hall, but ordered someone to collect the close-fitting soft and wait to be sent to the temple.

As soon as she left, the news spread and quickly exploded in the capital.

Everyone in Beijing couldn't believe that the crown princess took the initiative to ask for a monk. Sui Nuanzhi's decision caught the Sui family, who were preparing for the last fight, off guard. The Sui family was so angry that their minds were dizzy, and they cursed Sui Nuanzhi for useless things. actually stabbed the Sui family backhand at this time, making their efforts for so long in vain.

Sui Yuesheng was stunned for a long time when he heard the news, and then slowly stroked his beard and laughed.

Sure enough, among all the juniors in the family, Nuan Zhi is the most transparent one. It's a pity that I gave birth to a woman by mistake......

Chapter 152

A battle for the posterior position came to an end because of Sui Nuanzhi's ordination.

After fighting for nearly half a year, there were many dead and wounded, and the Sui family was finally defeated. The edict of the first emperor to give Sui Nuanzhi as the queen also lost its effectiveness because of Sui Nuanzhi's voluntary concession.

The Sui family completely stopped, and pleaded guilty in public, but the Sui family suffered heavy losses as a result. Most of the protégés were disposed of, and Donglin Academy was also sealed. The unstoppable Sui family force was ruthlessly cut to pieces by the new emperor. Before the end of the year, the Sui family watched Sui Nuanzhi shave his ordination in public and withdraw from the capital lonely.

Come with the excitement and return with the defeat.

After that, the throne undoubtedly fell to Wang Shu's head.

Now, among the few women left in the backyard, none of them are qualified to compete with Wang Shu. Although Wang Shu has never argued, Xiao Yanxing will never allow others to sleep next to him in the mausoleum where he will be buried a hundred years later. Empress Yuan was to be buried with the emperor. Xiao Yanxing decided that the only person who could be buried with him in this life was Wang Shu.

After listening to Xiao Yanxing's reason, Wang Shu was silent for a long time: "Xiao Yanxing...... I'm going to go to Gangnam. ”

"I know."

In the main hall, the two sat facing each other on their knees, and the room was so quiet that a pin could be clearly seen on the ground.

"I don't have time to manage the harem for you, and I won't be the mother of the world." Wang Shu knows that she has a few pounds and a few taels, and she can engage in scientific research because she has done this business for three lifetimes, and practice makes perfect. But she has never been a queen, and she doesn't know how to perceive people's hearts, and she has no ability to intrigue with others. really fights with a noble girl from such a big family, she may be able to be played to death.

Xiao Yanxing's gaze fell on her face. Obviously, they would hug each other and sleep every night, but he felt that he hadn't seen Shu'er for a long time.

"Yes, I know."

"Queen, I'm not suitable."

Wang Shu spoke, but her throat tightened unconsciously. It's hard to say every word.

"You don't need to be suitable." Xiao Yanxing's voice was clear and light, blending into the cold wind outside the window. Winter in the capital is always heavy snow, and the white of the sky and the earth is engulfed by snowstorms. It seems that every word is said with a cold air, "I won't have a harem." ”

Wang Shu's heart was shocked, raised his head, and suddenly looked at him.

"You know, Shu'er." Xiao Yanxing hooked the corners of his mouth, and his lacquer-like eyes were half-bright and half-ambiguous under the candlelight. With a strange smile and a sense of scoundrel, he played a scoundrel in a grand manner, "I'm sick." ”

Wang Shu choked heavily in her throat, and she was a little speechless. She really couldn't believe that this kind of words would come from Xiao Yanxing's mouth.

No one knows better than she knows how proud this guy is. It is estimated that he was dragged to the crematorium and burned after he died, and this person only had his uninhibited pride except for the ashes. Such a low-profile and somewhat tricky remark was said by him personally, Wang Shu was naturally shocked.

"You...... Xiao Yanxing, don't play tricks! ”

"No tricks." Xiao Yanxing was also thoughtful.

As a superior who was born and raised as the next monarch, he was taught to accept the harem and spread out since he was a child. But for many years, Xiao Yanxing's rebellion in his bones has been competing with himself. He doesn't think it's good to have more and more children, and he doesn't think it's a blessing for the queen house to accept more. Having more children and blessings is not necessary for him, and he does not value it.

A large number of people means trouble, it means strife.

Xiao Yanxing doesn't like many things in his life, he is not lustful, and he is not greedy for power. If he could, he would actually prefer to go back to the Wang family's courtyard in Lin'an County, Liangzhou with Wang Shu and a few children. Although the yard is small, he has a harbor where he can take off his guard and rest at any time.

The time in Lin'an County was the most relaxed time in Xiao Yanxing's life.

"There are so many people, I can't handle it."

"Really?" Wang Shuhu looked at him suspiciously. He can easily navigate among so many people, and a few women can't deal with it?

However, of course, Wang Shu also understood the meaning of his words. He was promising her that he would be a couple for the rest of his life. It was because I understood that I felt that Xiao Yanxing might be crazy. If this guy is an idle prince, or even a regent who leans towards the government and the opposition, Wang Shu doesn't think it's too unusual for him to say such things. But this guy is an emperor, and it's outrageous to make such a promise.

"Xiao Yanxing, you should remember our five-year covenant, right?" Wang Shu has already arranged many matters to go south to the south of the Yangtze River. Just waiting for the beginning of spring and going to the new experimental base in Jiangnan, "My decision remains the same." ”

"Maybe it could change a little bit......"

Before Xiao Yanxing finished speaking, Wang Shu was instantly alert, and she glared at Xiao Yanxing: "What do you mean?" Doesn't it matter if you talk again? ”

"Not really." Xiao Yanxing seemed to have expected Wang Shu to react like this, he suddenly leaned forward and grabbed the back of Wang Shu's head. The slender big hand grabbed her and pressed her into his arms, "You can go to Jiangnan, you can concentrate on doing your thing." I will remove obstacles for you and isolate all external disturbances, but it is Shu'er, and your husband can only be me. You want to come back to the capital to see me, and you have to go back to the capital every once in a while. Come back after the autumn harvest. Shu'er, I know it's hard to go back and forth, and when everything settles in the future, I will go to Jiangnan to accompany you. ”

Out of personal affection, he loved her, and he wanted to be with her until he was old. Out of righteousness, Shu'er's skills are too eye-catching, and the court will not let it go.

Wang Shu didn't say anything when she heard this, and pursed the corners of her mouth.

In fact, she actually understood a long time ago that if she exposed the good seed to Xiao Yanxing, she could only belong to the royal family in this life. No one in power would allow someone like her to go free and get away with it. Because being free means having more choices. With more choices, the food she has at her disposal may flow to others. Flow to others means instability.

In other words, as long as he is a normal monarch, he will not allow Wang Shu to leave.

"Don't be annoyed yet," Xiao Yanxing opened his mouth when he saw her frowning, "Let's discuss it carefully, the way is to die, and people are alive." Although I, Xiao Yanxing, will fulfill my duties for the well-being of the people of Daqing, I am not a person who follows the rules. You've always known me, and rules can't trap me. ”

Making this decision was the final decision made by Xiao Yanxing after five years of thinking.

With Shu'er's special ability, based on the position of a monarch, he should never trap people in the harem. Such talents benefit tens of millions of people, and their merits are in the future. In any case, you should give full play to your life's strengths and concentrate on achieving your life's achievements. He shouldn't and can't trap people in the back house.

But based on a husband's selfishness, he didn't want her to live without him for the rest of her life.

If Shu'er chooses to be single in this life, it is difficult for him to be a strong man. But Shu'er had no such plans. Xiao Yanxing thinks that he may not be a good partner, but he is the only person in Quan Daqing who has the ability to protect her.

As long as you endure the wait, nothing cannot be overcome. Xiao Yanxing didn't think it was feasible, he had always been the most patient.

Of course, Wang Shu knew the rebellion in his bones. This man didn't take the dogma seriously at all.

There was a pause, and the eyes that looked at him were a little hesitant.

"Or do you think it's too long?" Xiao Yanxing's eyes were faintly visible, staring sharply at Wang Shu's expression. For fear of missing the slightest emotional change in her eyes, "Or, Shu'er has someone else in her heart?" Planning to abandon me and replace me? ”

Wang Shu glanced at him angrily, raised her hand and pinched his nose.

Xiao Yanxing was amused by her move. This girl has been doing so many years, and she still likes to pinch his nose.

"I know you've always demanded fairness."

Xiao Yanxing slowly straightened his knees, and his upper body leaned in the direction of Wang Shu. has been with Wang Shu for eight years, so she naturally knows her temperament, and she also knows that she is a little twisted in her heart. Before he could speak, he had already thought clearly, "I ask you to do so, and so do I." In my life, I will fight with you and guard you alone. What if I had someone else and you wouldn't see me again? ”

Wang Shu still feels that it is too risky, and he challenges the ancestral rituals of thousands of years by himself, Xiao Yanxing is really a little crazy!

"The Manchu civil and military forces will not agree." Wang Shu was a little moved, but reason still restrained her objection, "After the situation in the court stabilizes, they will definitely ask you to draft a draft to fill the harem." ”

"Humph!" Xiao Yanxing let out a slight cold snort in his nose, "Then try it." ”

Wang Shu: "......"

"You just have to think about what I told you, and I'll take care of the rest."

Wang Shu's guess was not wrong, the edict of Wang Shu as the queen had not yet been issued, and there was a wave of enthusiasm in the court to play Xiao Yanxing's wide selection of beauties to fill the harem. Every day, these notebooks are piled up higher than the pen stand. As if there was nothing else in the world, just staring at his back house.

Xiao Yanxing rarely made a big deal of anger in public for this, and brought out the officials who played the most fiercely in public. He smashed his notebook on the head, and asked him if he was too idle. If you really only have this little thing in your eyes, it is better to give up your position to someone who can do things.

The Song Senior Minister was so frightened that his face was pale, and he knelt on the ground and stumbled bluntly about the ancestral etiquette. The harem cannot be vacant, and the continuation of heirs is the most important thing in the world. Zuo is just the old-fashioned rhetoric, there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great.

"Am I without a queen?" Xiao Yanxing sneered.

"Minister, minister......" Senior Minister Song's face turned red in an instant, and he couldn't speak. He wanted to say that only two princes were not enough. Once there is a headache and brain fever, the two children may not live to grow up. And even if you live to grow up, you are not necessarily sure that your qualifications are good or bad. Only when there are more children, there are more choices. But he didn't dare to say this in public, and saying it was a curse to the eldest prince and the second prince.

But these are all excuses, the real reason is just that Xiao Yanxing's harem is empty, and their opportunity has come. After the crown princess Sui invited herself to become a monk, there are now four people left. And these four are all old people from Liangzhou, and there is no noble girl newly elected to the palace in the capital.

The Liu family, the Mei family, and the Yang family relied on their daughter to become hot figures in Beijing. Naturally, some people have hot eyes.

How could Xiao Yanxing not know what they were thinking? He couldn't have been clearer about what these people were thinking: "I want people who can do practical things." I hope you keep it in mind. If anyone keeps an eye on this matter of the harem in the future, I will consider the performance of the inspectors and re-evaluate the qualifications of the others. ”

This sentence was thrown out, and the court was silent for nearly half an hour.

Xiao Yanxing's strength has long been clearly felt by them this year. Even the Sui family was crushed back to Bashu, and they really didn't dare to provoke Xiao Yanxing again. I'm afraid that the little thing in my family will be found out, and I won't be able to do good when the time comes.

They have suffered losses in the matter of boycotting the dynasty, and now they dare not do it. If they boycott the dynasty, Xiao Yanxing will be replaced.

The Sui family's affairs set an example for the chickens and monkeys, as well as the tug-of-war between the monarchs and ministers that had been stalemate for more than half a year, also made them realize the strength of the new emperor. This is not an emperor at their mercy, they are well aware of this. All of them are very honest. Finally, on the fifth day of the first lunar month, Wang Shu lived in Weiyang Palace as a queen.

In the same year, Xiao Yanxing canonized Xiao Junheng as the crown prince. Yo Yo is the eldest princess, and the little third child finally spoke. This little guy has a completely different temperament from his brother and sister, and is extremely calm. Even if he is only two years old, he can already see the calmness of his temperament in the future.

On the day Wang Shu moved into Weiyang Palace, Xiao Yanxing also moved in as a matter of course.

His dormitory became Weiyang Palace. The Emperor's Daming Palace was vacant. Although Wang Shu was a little speechless, his preference for living with her couldn't be changed, so he didn't say anything. However, Wang Shu only lived in Weiyang Palace for less than a month before setting off for the south of the Yangtze River. This is something that has been decided a long time ago. It will take more than a month on the road, and in order not to miss the spring ploughing, she must leave early.

When Wang Shu left, Xiao Yanxing had not yet canonized Yang and others. He gave several people two choices. Stay in the deep palace and continue to be a nominal concubine, or like the original Concubine Lin, change her face and marry someone out of the palace.

Only one of the three made a decision quickly, and Yang gave the decision on the spot. She will not have a skin-to-skin relationship with any man in her life, and she does not expect to have children of her own. Your Majesty is very good, and the queen is also very good, she is willing to live in the deep palace for the rest of her life.

Mei and Liu Ruhui were a little hesitant. They want prosperity and wealth, but they also want to have a husband and caring children who love them. But the two also know that they can't have both. They followed Xiao Yanxing from the capital to the northwest, and then back to the capital from the northwest. From the age of fifteen to now, it has been a full thirteen years. Compared with the old Zhu Huang to marry a man who doesn't know his character, in fact, His Majesty is actually quite good to them. Except for not entering their house, they will have no children in the future, but they have never been treated badly in other aspects.

It's a tough trade-off. On the one hand, I feel that the life of freedom is quite comfortable now, as long as His Majesty does not die suddenly. They will not be pampered in this life. On the one hand, he was quite troubled by the end of having no children. Since childhood, he has been taught that he is a husband and a child, and the heir is the dependence of the second half of his life. To have no children is a terrible thing to do.

Mei and Liu hesitated, and Xiao Yanxing did not force them to make a decision immediately. Gave a month to consider.

"Actually, having children doesn't have to be a lifelong dependent, is it?" Mei's heart is bottomless, greedy for a comfortable life now, and afraid that there will be no heirs in the second half of the future, "Some people have children, and children are not filial." Sister Hui, do you say? ”

"That's it." Liu Ruhui nodded, and she was also panicked. She still has many years in her life, and she is also confused about the future.
