Chapter 192 Five Princesses

The woman was obviously taken aback by the shout outside.The maid next to her quickly took the porcelain from the woman's hand and held it carefully in her arms.

Brothers Li Mingrui and Li Mingyu walked into Jingchen Palace side by side. When they saw the mess inside, Li Mingrui's expression became ugly. "Li Wanrou, what are you doing?"

When the woman in Chinese clothes saw Li Mingrui, she snorted, turned around and walked inside.

The two Li Mingrui brothers also followed inside, bypassed several screens, and entered the east room.There is a small kang in the north of the house, and a middle-aged beautiful woman is sitting on the kang.

"It's the emperor and King Fu who are here. Come and sit down. The emperor hasn't come for a while." That beautiful woman is of course the emperor's Aunt Xue, Mo Xueyan.When the first emperor was in power, she was named a virtuous concubine.Later, when the first emperor passed away, Li Mingrui ascended the throne as the emperor, and then became a concubine.

Li Mingrui sat on the edge of the kang, while Mingyu sat on the embroidered pier brought by the maid.

"Aunt Xue, how are you these days?" Li Mingrui asked.

"Okay, I can eat and sleep, how can it be bad? It's the girl Wanrou who makes troubles for me all day long, otherwise I wouldn't let you order a marriage. I just want to find her a husband's family, okay?" Take care of her." None of the women who can survive in the palace is a simple person, and when the emperor came at this moment, Mo Xueyan certainly understood why he came.

"Aunt Xue, I'm afraid this matter will not work out. The new top scholar already has a fiancée, and his fiancée is still waiting for him to go back to get married in his hometown. Why don't I choose another one for the fifth younger sister who is outstanding in talent and appearance? It's not a must. " Li Mingrui tentatively said.

When Li Wanrou next to her heard this, she immediately quit, "No, I want this Lin Zixuan, and I don't want anyone else."

Li Mingrui's face changed slightly, "Wanrou, Brother Huang is a bit unclear. You only saw Lin Zixuan today, so why should he be the only one? There are countless noble families in the imperial court, and any one you can find is better than his family background." Well, your character is better than him, why are you so attached to him?" I really don't understand.

Li Wanrou became compliant, and with blushing cheeks, she told about the visit to Baiyun Temple that day. "Brother Huang, he saved my sister's life. My sister has nothing to repay her, so I can only promise him with my body." As he spoke, he felt a little embarrassed.

Only then did Li Mingrui suddenly understand, but then his face turned cold, "Wanrou, you are a majestic princess who sneaked out of the palace disguised as a man, and almost fell down the mountain. Are you too courageous?"

With Li Mingrui's straight face, Li Wanrou next to her was a little scared. She was most afraid of this third brother, especially when he was straight-faced. "Brother Huang, I'm just too bored to be idle in the palace, and then I heard people say that the peach blossoms on the mountain behind Baiyun Temple are blooming very well, so I went out to have a look. Who would have thought that there would be so many people there, accidentally. "Li Wanrou's voice became smaller and smaller.

Li Mingrui sighed, "You, just search hard. Look at you, you still look like a dignified princess? Don't think about Lin Zixuan's matter. I put him in the prison, and he is still the same. Don't change your original intention. It can be seen that he and his fiancée have a very good relationship. Even if you marry him, you will not be happy in the future. I will find another person with excellent talent, appearance and character for you in the future, and you will marry Lin Zixuan. Forget it."

Li Wanrou gave up as soon as she heard it, and ran to her mother, "Mother Concubine, listen to what the emperor said, it is rare for a daughter to like someone, he is just a fiancée at home, and he is not married. Emperor brother Make a decree to grant marriage, and then find a husband-in-law for that girl. Is it true that my majestic princess is not as good as a commoner girl?"

The Xian concubine also said, "Your Majesty, I think Wanrou is right about this matter. Can't our majestic golden branches and jade leaves be as good as a commoner girl? This Lin Zixuan is the number one scholar in Sanyuan, so he is worthy of it." It's time for us Wanrou. It would be a pity to marry a civilian girl. Your Majesty, I only have a daughter like Wanrou. Please let the emperor accept Wanrou for the sake of my dedication to you two. Please." The woman said calmly, but it made Li Mingrui's complexion even uglier.

"Aunt Xue, you are the cousin of the queen mother. After the death of the queen mother, Aunt Xue devoted herself to raising us two brothers. I will keep this kindness in my heart. But this important matter in the court cannot be discussed by the harem. Lin Zixuan is outstanding in learning, In the future, he must be my right-hand man. If he really favors the princess, wouldn’t I lose a humerus minister in the future? This is absolutely impossible.” There have been regulations in all dynasties that this son-in-law is just a title, a false title However, he cannot be an official in the court, so Li Mingrui is naturally reluctant to let Lin Zixuan become a son-in-law.

Here Li Wanrou stopped doing it, "Brother Huang, you just don't love Rou'er anymore. Why do you not want to be an official? Isn't it just a word from Brother Huang? As long as Brother Huang is willing, what else can the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty say? "After all, she wanted Lin Zixuan to be her son-in-law.

"Bold, you can talk nonsense about the important affairs of the court?" Li Mingrui was furious, "Today I will tell you the truth, you don't want Lin Zixuan to be your son-in-law. Tomorrow I will let someone choose for you from the noble families in the court. Son-in-law, from today onwards, you will stay in this Jingchen Palace, and you are not allowed to go anywhere." This Wanrou really owes a lesson.

When Li Wanrou heard this, she burst into tears, "Mother and concubine, look at the emperor, he will not recognize our mother and daughter when he becomes the emperor. I don't even think about it, if it weren't for my uncle and the others to help me behind, how could I take my turn?" Until he becomes emperor?"

As soon as these words came out, Concubine Xian's face changed drastically, and she hurriedly said to Li Mingrui, "Your Majesty, Rou'er is talking nonsense, she is a child, you must not be as knowledgeable as her." Then she turned her head and stared at her daughter, "I think you are so used to me that you have no boundaries. You dare to say anything? Who told you this? Don't die, right?"

Li Mingrui sneered, "I'm afraid someone thinks that in his heart? Otherwise, with Wanrou's brain, he still can't think of such words. Aunt Xue, I respect you as an elder, and you are kind to our brothers. Keep you in the palace and take good care of you. You don't look at other concubines, those who once gave birth to princes, don't they also practice in Buddhist temples now? It is best to be content, if you are not satisfied, A catastrophe is imminent." After speaking, Li Mingrui walked away in a huff.

Mingyu also stood up. He hadn't spoken just now, and now he looked at Concubine Xian coldly, "Aunt Xue, there are some things that I don't say, because I don't know. I just think of your affection." That's all. Why did my mother die back then, do you think I really don't know? I'm afraid Aunt Xue contributed a lot to the flames, right? I didn't tell the truth, but it was just to save face for each other. .” After Mingyu finished speaking, he also left.

Concubine Xian looked at the backs of the two brothers leaving with a gray face, and couldn't help muttering, "Impossible, it's impossible for them to know? Impossible, impossible."

Seeing her mother's appearance, Li Wanrou was puzzled and asked, "Mother, what are you saying is impossible?"

Concubine Xian came back to her senses, stretched out her hand and slapped her daughter, "It was all you, if it wasn't for you, why would I have offended these two brothers? How will I live in the future?"

The two brothers Li Mingrui returned to the Imperial Study Room, and Ming Yu couldn't help but said, "I said at the beginning that all these imperial father's concubines should live in Buddhist temples. They are imperial father's concubines, since the imperial father has gone, They should be asked to chant scriptures and pray for the emperor every day. The emperor's heart is soft, and he left the concubine Xian, how is it now? He wants to meddle in the government."

"It's not like you don't know that our mother's mother's natal family is all literati, and they are not of much use. And Aunt Xue's family has several generals and marshals, and now half of the military power in the court is held by their Mo family. hands. If I am too extreme with her, can I still sit firmly on the seat of the emperor? Now that I have been on the throne for more than half a year, there are many things that I still cannot fully grasp. It is not the time to offend the Mo family. Why did I put You were sent to the Northwest Army because you want to train yourself and gradually replace the Mo family." Li Mingrui said helplessly.

"Then what about Lin Zixuan? What method are you going to use to get him out?" Ming Yu also understood the helplessness of Brother Huang.

"On that day, I only said that I would marry Yumei to Lin Zixuan, but didn't say who it was. Now I can only tell Jinghan's kindness for saving me, and then give her a reward. I just recognize her as my sister. Now, give her the title of princess, so that I can get the best of both worlds." Li Mingrui had already figured it out in his heart, and this was the best way.

"It's also thanks to Brother Huang who can think of it. This is feasible. However, Brother Huang just said that there have been rules in all dynasties, and this son-in-law cannot be an official. Brother Huang, are you willing to give up Lin Zixuan?" Ming Yu asked with a smile .

"What's so difficult about this? It's just a title, and there are no ranks. Do you think you can really be treated like a daughter of the clan? Since you are not a noble daughter of the clan, it has nothing to do with those." Li Mingrui waved his hand. He is the emperor. , He can still say these things.

"Then I would like to thank you, Brother Huang. Otherwise, I really don't know what to do. Brother Huang also knows that this time I am going to the Xu family to be hired. If I can't save the second brother-in-law, you How can I go to see my second sister?" Mingyu felt relieved when he heard that the big deal had been decided, and then he said jokingly.

"Hmph, it's cheaper for you and Yunfei. The girls of Xu's family are all outstanding. I was thinking, since Jinghan can't enter the palace, I might as well choose another one to accompany you. Unexpectedly, the two of you It's pretty quick to strike, and it's actually nailed everyone." Li Mingrui also joked.

　Ahem, some readers said that this paragraph is a bit fantasy and unscientific.Hehehe, in fact, time travel itself is unscientific.
