Chapter 465 Contradicting the Emperor
Song Qingyue never expected that the matter of finding the concubine for her brother-in-law would fall on her head after the emperor and the queen quarreled.

She really didn't want to do such troublesome things, because she really didn't know Xiao Wu and what kind of character he was.

In fact, Song Qingyue didn't like any of the temperament of the emperor's sons!
The eldest brother Li Zhao is mean and domineering, she knows better than anyone how she got here in the first place; Li Yi doesn’t mention it, he is just a giant baby who hasn’t grown up, no matter who marries him, his life will be ruined; It's normal, but half-hearted, paying attention to both women, it's better not to pay attention to both women, marrying him is also painful; the fourth child is sinister and vicious, and a woman as cunning as Fang Yilan can't handle him. You could tell from the look on her face that she was having a very bad time.

Just the four elder brothers in front of them are all fire pits!
What good can Xiao Wu do?
Even if she knew that it was impossible for Xiao Wu not to marry a wife for the rest of her life, but now she was asked to pick a girl and push her into the pit of fire with her own hands, no matter what, she didn't want to do it.

Otherwise, if that girl had a miserable life in the future, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.

So Song Qingyue refused in every possible way, and even the emperor's face was darkened, showing displeasure, but she still didn't let go of her promise.

"Father, there are so many elders in the harem who can preside over this matter, and my daughter-in-law will never dare to overstep!"

Song Qingyue knelt on the ground and spoke grandiosely.

The emperor looked at her and narrowed his eyes: "But Xiao Wu has offended you before?"

Song Qingyue quickly shook her head: "Father misunderstood! His Royal Highness is very good, we have been living in peace, and we don't have many interactions on weekdays. How could there be any offense?"

"Then why don't you want to help Xiao Wu? There must be a reason for evading it in every possible way?"

"..."

Song Qingyue hung her head, not knowing how to answer.

The emperor pinched the bridge of his nose and said: "Forget it, you can step back. With such reluctance, I can't entrust this matter to you with confidence, you can go back."

"Yes, thank you, Father."

After Song Qingyue withdrew, she wiped the sweat off her forehead, and hurried home to play with Li Xiaokun in the mud. It was also under Song Qingyue's deliberate guidance that the little guy became obsessed with playing in mud recently.

Song Qingyue first used clay to make various small animals seen in the zoo, and then Li Xiaokun made a semi-circular arch.

At first Song Qingyue didn't know what it was, thinking it was a rainbow or something, but Li Xiaokun said that he didn't know what a rainbow was, and said that the semicircle was the gate of the Academy of Sciences.

Song Qingyue was overjoyed and kissed her son twice.A Niang's kiss was Li Xiaokun's biggest motivation. He started to make small tables, small chairs, small pavilions, and small buildings. After more than half a month, he had almost made out the second garden of Wufangzhai.

When Li Zhao came back from the palace in the evening, Song Qingyue was still sitting under the big locust tree in the yard playing mud with her son.

"You're so angry that your father is smoking above your head, and you still have the mood to sit here with your son making clay figurines." Li Zhao smiled, and also pulled up a small stool to sit beside the mother.

Song Qingyue sighed: "Then what can I do?"

Li Zhao touched his son's small head, turned his big palm, pinched Song Qingyue's chin, and made her turn her head to face him.

"Why don't you want to find a princess for Xiao Wu? Xiao Wu has offended you before?"

Song Qingyue's eyelashes trembled slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'll tell you why later in the evening, my son is here."

After taking a walk in the evening, Li Xiaokun went to sleep. Li Zhao took Song Qingyue to soak in the bathing pool behind Baoguang Hall. He put his arms around her waist and asked, "Can we talk now?"

Song Qingyue gave a low hum: "None of the girls who married the princes of your old Li family had a good life. In the past, Guo Yun'er was considered to be doing well. When the side concubine Zhuang came in, she looked at her. All my spirits are gone. I don’t know Xiao Wu’s temperament at all, if I pick that girl and let her suffer from Xiao Wu in the future, I will feel uneasy and painful.”

The arms around her waist tightened suddenly, Li Zhao hugged her tightly, put his chin on her neck and asked sullenly, "Did I make you suffer?"

Song Qingyue was silent for a long time, and said truthfully: "If I were an ordinary woman, I would not be happy. I told you that when you really love someone, you can't be magnanimous. Putting on a virtuous and magnanimous shell, the inside has long been Wither, and crumble at the touch."

She reached out and touched Li Zhao's cheek: "I don't mean that you haven't done well enough. I know you have done everything you can, Li Zhao, and I have always been grateful to you in my heart."

The candlelight by the bath is full of vague and lingering affection in the water vapor.

Heart was sore, Li Zhao never thought that loving someone would be so difficult.

Even if they are really happy with each other, it is completely different to become relatives who deeply trust each other.

This night Li Zhao kissed extraordinarily hard, desperately wanting to draw out his heart to please the lover under him.

After September, the Ministry of Rites wrote to the emperor, asking the emperor to start choosing the location of his mausoleum.

According to legend, His Royal Highness the First Prince had a dispute with His Majesty the Emperor over the size of the mausoleum.

However, within a few days, news came from the court that His Royal Highness the First Prince invited himself to go to Shanxi fiefdom.
