I looked at him with a sullen face, and sneered: "No matter what you say, her reputation is ruined because of you. Everyone in the palace knows about it. This morning, the emperor sent someone to my palace to ask for a cane. kill her."
Zhao Wang was stunned for a while, and said strangely: "How could the emperor know about this?"
I couldn't make up a reason, so I sneered in return and said, "You ask me, who should I ask? Anyway, I already know. You also know that Lu Li is the first close person around me, and I will never call She died in such a confused way. If you don't accept this account, we'll be ripped off and make a fuss!"
King Zhao was silent when he heard it. After a while, he loudly called someone to come over and ask him to go under the hedge to wash up.
Heli looked up at me, saw me nodding, then got up from the ground with his head lowered, and followed the person who came out.
King Zhao let me into the house, and while making tea for me, he asked aloud, "Sister-in-law, give me a solid foundation, what do you think?"
As soon as I saw that this kid was considered a good man, I stopped going around with him, and said bluntly, "I want you to marry Lu Li."
King Zhao's hand shook, and a lot of water in the tea cup spilled out, causing him to grin.
He raised his head and looked at me very frankly, "sister-in-law, I really didn't touch her. When I saw that she was asleep, I kindly went over to call her, and being scratched by her was wrong enough."
I nodded and said, "That's right, Ledge has already told me the truth, but now only you can save her life by marrying her."
The child of King Zhao didn't understand, he stared at me for a moment, smacked his lips and said, "I'm going to intercede with the emperor, will it work? As long as I don't care about it here, the emperor won't hold on to a palace maid and be beaten. It's me, not him."
I shook my head and said frankly, "You can't talk about it, so don't try it. You listen to me. If you marry Lu Li, we will both save trouble. She's a good girl, and you won't suffer."
There was a wry smile on King Zhao's face, and he said, "No matter how poor I am, I am still a prince, the parent and son of the late emperor. You asked me to marry a servant girl?"
I thought to myself now that you are reminded of your status? Then the Jiang family is nowhere higher than the green hedge, don't you marry all of them
But this can't be said, it can only add fuel to the fire.
I recalled Jiang's charming appearance, adjusted my facial expression, and said in a slow voice, "Anyway, this matter is caused by you, I can't just watch Lu Li die like this, and I don't expect it either. I want you to marry her as your wife, you go to the Empress Dowager, and she will come forward to ask me for someone, as long as she sends a message there, the emperor will have nothing to say."
Zhao Wang lowered his head slightly, thinking about it, but did not speak.
I hurriedly added: "I'm just begging to save Lu Heng's life, and nothing else. You can bring her here and give her a place to live. After two years, when the limelight passes, I'll get her again. go."
Zhao Wang finally raised his head to look at me, and said in a very embarrassed way, "Sister Huang, you are actually embarrassing your brother."
When I saw that the soft one was not good, I immediately changed to the hard one, and sneered: "This matter, we can talk and discuss, you can do me a favor, and I will accept your favor. It is difficult to say who asked who in the future. But you If you die, don't blame me for turning your back, Lu Li died, and I'll hold her back."
King Zhao raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and looked at me in dismay, "Sister-in-law, I'm a prince anyway, so I won't be reduced to the back of a maid!"
Qi Sheng's people were still detained by me in Xingsheng Palace. I didn't have time to argue with him here, so I tore my face and said, "You don't need it, but isn't there still one living in the Orchid Palace? It's not difficult for me to kill her."
Zhao Wang was holding a teapot for me to refill the tea. Hearing that, his body froze. He raised his eyes and looked at me quietly.
I didn't speak, I just looked at him silently.
He laughed at himself and continued: "Besides, it's too late for me to hate her, why would I wrong myself for her life and death?"
It doesn't matter what you say, if you really hated the Jiang Sect, you would have killed Qi Sheng long before he returned to Beijing to take the throne. How could she still be allowed to live to Qi Sheng? Then helplessly watched them play a trick, Jin Chan, to escape and get Jiang into the palace
I smiled, stood up, and said, "If that's the case, then let's stop talking nonsense and say goodbye."
When he's done talking, he flicks his sleeves and leaves.
When I was almost walking to the door here, and the King Zhao behind him didn't move, I couldn't help but feel a little regretful. What's wrong with learning the secret way? X, but in the end, the one who suffers is yourself!
It wasn't until I stepped over the threshold with both feet that I heard King Zhao's voice behind me.
He said, "Okay, I promise you."
I was so relieved that I almost sat down on the door frame. After waiting for a long time, I was able to calm down, turned to look at King Zhao, and said, "Just the Jiang family, it's really not worth your treatment of her."
King Zhao smiled bitterly, "Sister Huang, do you mean to persuade me to change my mind?"
I waved my hand hurriedly and said with a smile, "Don't, I'm still counting on you to save people."
King Zhao reluctantly twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "The emperor's sister-in-law should take the green hedge back first, and then the younger brother will enter the palace to see the emperor's grandmother."
I nodded, went out and led the hedge back.
Going back is not as anxious as it was when I came, and it naturally slows down. Seeing my relaxed expression, Lu Li felt somewhat relieved. He turned his head to look at me and asked, "Niangniang, this servant doesn't understand. Since we are here to beg King Zhao, why do we have to be so tough at the beginning?"
I replied, "There are so many ways to ask for help. It's not enough to just be low-key and be a small one. You have to learn to use both soft and hard to be a master."
Although Lu Li nodded slowly, there was still a look of doubt on his face.
I thought about it for a while, then explained with a smile: "As for today's matter, I'm actually going up to give King Zhao a stick, knock him first, and then talk about the rest."
For example, it's like you have to use a brick to shoot a person. Can you go up and discuss it with him
Let me be like this. I will shoot you a brick first, and then you will pay me a brick, and it will be even if it is even, and it will not suffer.
Don't worry, he will definitely not let you shoot, and he has to call you crazy!
So, don't negotiate with him in a good way. Go up and give him a block first, and let him return a block if it's a big deal. In this way, even if you hit him, you won't suffer much, and he still feels that he is quite capable!
have to! Everyone is happy!
When Lu Li and I returned to Xingsheng Palace, the sun was almost overhead outside, and the people sent by Qi Sheng were still holding them in the side hall. When I came back to write an opinion, I was relieved and rushed over. He shouted, "Miss, you are finally back."
I nodded, raised my chin towards the side hall, and asked her, "How is it? Is it okay?"
Freehand hurriedly said: "It's okay, I wanted to be in a hurry at first, but I was blocked by the slaves, and then I was honest. Now I have drank three pots of tea, and I just asked if I could go to the toilet!"
I laughed and asked, "How did you answer?"
Freehand opened his eyes wide, and replied very seriously: "The slaves didn't answer anything, so I asked someone to bring them a potty."
I almost clapped my hands and applauded, so freehand, now there is a shortage of talents like you! I nodded approvingly, instructed Shuyi to continue to hold those people, and then brought the hedge into the hall to change clothes.
Who would have thought that I had just changed into the palace clothes here, and there was a palace maid outside to report: "Niangniang, there is someone from the Empress Dowager's side, please bring Sister Lvli over there."
I was startled, I didn't expect that King Zhao's efficiency was so fast, I hurriedly asked Lu Li to quickly dress up, and followed me to see the Empress Dowager Lin.
Lu Li went out for a while, and when he came back, he was still wearing an ordinary maid's attire, even without makeup on his face, he only put down his bangs, barely covering the bruises on his forehead.
I thought that this is not bad, as long as you don't wear white like Jiang's, it is estimated that the Empress Dowager will be able to pass the test.
In the Palace of the Empress Dowager, King Zhao, dressed in a lavender python robe, was sitting beside the Empress Dowager and telling jokes. When he saw me entering the palace, he stood up, smiled and called the Queen's Sister-in-law, and then his eyes were on On the hedge behind me.
To say that the Empress Dowager is also a cheerful person, she didn't say much nonsense when she saw that I brought people here, she just pointed at the green hedge and asked King Zhao, "Is this the girl?"
King Zhao walked to Lvli, pulled her, and knelt down for the Empress Dowager. He raised his face and begged with a smile: "My grandson just fell in love with her, and I beg the emperor's grandmother to make it happen." Then he turned his head to look at me, He smiled and said, "I also begged the emperor's sister-in-law for personal favor, and gave the green hedge to the younger brother, who will definitely treat her well."
I was busy looking very surprised here, but the Empress Dowager smiled and angrily said to King Zhao: "You child, how can you beg someone like this."
Having said that, she herself honestly and unceremoniously called Ledge over to look at it for a while, and then smiled at me: "Queen, I also see that this girl is good, the fifth has never been caring. The person, you give this girl to him, and the imperial grandmother will pick another girl to supply you."
I looked at the Empress Dowager, and then turned to look at King Zhao, so I looked embarrassed, and after thinking about it, I said, "Where is the grandmother, it's her blessing that Luli is favored by His Royal Highness King Zhao, my concubine. It's too late to be happy for her."
When the Empress Dowager heard me being so generous, she was very happy. She didn't even ask the client for Ledge's opinion. She made a decision on the spot and gave the Ledge to King Zhao. For my own sake, she even mentioned the Ledge's opinion. The status gave her the position of a child.
I was very satisfied with the result, and I pretended to educate the hedgerow a few words, and then I excused myself to prepare for the hedgerow and resigned from the empress dowager.
When I returned to the inner hall of Xingsheng Palace, Lu Li knelt down on my knees again, kowtowed three times, and said, "Slave maid, thank you for saving your life."
I accepted her three heads steadily, and then I said in a deep voice, "Lvli, I know you don't want to marry King Zhao."
Lu Li's body froze on the ground, and after a while, he said awkwardly: "Yes, the slave does not want to marry him, the slave's slap was deliberately slapped, but I didn't expect it to be self-defeating, not only causing the emperor to be angry , and also implicated the empress."
I had the heart to ask her why she looked down on King Zhao so much, but then I thought that it would be useless to ask now, I might as well save the spit, so I just sighed and said, "But up to now, there is only King Zhao. I can save your life. I have done my best, and the future is all up to you."
Hedge nodded, but couldn't help sobbing in a low voice.
I said, "Get up, go down and clean up by yourself, and follow King Zhao later."
Lvli stood up from the ground, took two steps back but fell at my feet again, crying, "Niangniang, this slave and maid can't bear you."
I looked down at her, "Lvli, let's go, I've paid for the kindness of an arrow on the Wanjiang River, no matter who you were in the past and who you will do things for in the future, the two of us are already do not owe each other.”
Lvli burst into tears and wept: "The slave was sent by others to be by the goddess' side, but the slave can swear to the heavens that the slave has never done anything wrong to the goddess. The slave only hopes that the goddess will be well." She said, reaching out He took out a piece of jade pendant from his close-fitting clothes and gave it to me with both hands, "Niangniang, this is given to the servant by that person. In the future, the servant will not be able to serve on the side of the mother, so let it stand beside the mother instead of the servant."
It was a piece of suet white jade carved with dragon patterns, with the body temperature of a green hedge. One side was engraved with the word "Qi", and the other side was the word "free from death". It seemed that it was a death-free card granted by the emperor.
I couldn't help laughing, this kind of thing looks arrogant, but it's actually just cheating a little girl.
But after all, this is the heart of the hedge.
I put the jade pendant away, then smiled at Lu Li, and said softly, "Let's go."
Ledge got up and walked back three steps.
I sat alone in the hall for a while, called Xie Yi to come in, and ordered her to release the servants of Daming Palace, telling them that Lu Li was given to King Zhao by the Empress Dowager as a child, and that I, the Empress, had no control. If you want to kill her, go to Zhao Wang's mansion to ask for someone.
Freehand agreed, but turned back to look at me when he was going out, hesitated for a while, and then asked in a low voice, "Niangniang, if the servants are also loyal to the mother, will the mother also treat the servants like Sister Lvli?"
There is no loyalty or unfaithfulness in this world, it's just people changing people's hearts.
I smiled and answered her: "It's not very easy to handle. I can't ask you to marry King Zhao, but I can go and ask you about the King of Chu."
Freehand did not speak, and bowed back respectfully.
After the green hedge was gone, a big rock fell in my heart, and then I remembered that I hadn't eaten since I woke up in the morning. I hurriedly called the palace maid to prepare the meal. While waiting for the meal, I also waited for Qi Sheng's response.
As a result, there was no news until it was dark.
I don't know how the servants went back and explained to Qi Sheng. He has been very quiet there. He neither chased after Zhao Wang's mansion to ask for someone, nor came to my palace to vent his anger.
This result was beyond my expectations.
While nibbling on the chicken wings, I sighed that Qi Sheng's brain ditch was different from that of a normal person.
Freehand came in from the outside and saw me, with a heartbroken expression on his face, he stepped forward and took away the plate in front of me without a word, and asked someone to bring a water basin in to clean my hands, and he kept saying: "My lady's waist is not easy. I've only gotten down to it, how can I stick to those again, I don't know who is so bold and let the empress do such nonsense."
I couldn't help but look up at her, and in a trance, I seemed to see the green hedge that had been breaking its mouth still beside me.
When I wrote my opinion, I looked at her like this, with a little nervousness on my face, and called me in a low voice, "Niangniang?"
I woke up with a start, and when everyone else had gone out, did I say to Xie Yi, "Xi Yi, you don't need to learn the hedge, you are not her, if you are really smart, you should get out of here as soon as possible."
Freehand's body froze for a moment, and she forced her lips to tug at the corners of her mouth, but said with her head lowered, "The servant will not leave, the servant knows what kind of person the empress is, and the servant will follow you with peace of mind."
I smiled, but said nothing more.
Freehand stopped, and suddenly said in a low voice, "The emperor rode out of the palace last night."
