Clear Wear and Lie to Win

Chapter 57
When the two arrived, Yinzhen was dealing with government affairs.

Liang Jiugong: "Your Majesty, Wang promised and Li promised to arrive."

Yinzhen put down the booklet in his hand: "Let them in!"

Liang Jiugong: "Yes"

Not long after Liang Jiugong went out, Wang promised and Li promised to come in.

The two saluted honestly according to the rules.

Yinzhen: "No courtesy."

The two said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

It's not easy for the two of them to raise their heads after they finished talking. If they had just entered the palace, they might have dared to raise their heads without fear. After all these years, the way of survival in the harem told them that only by being honest and responsible can they survive.

Yinzhen: "I give you two choices. The first choice is that I can let you out of the palace, give you a new identity, and then get married and have children honestly. The second choice is that you can go to the temple. Practice, as long as you are a teacher, I can protect your life and life without worry."

Both of them were taken aback by Yinzhen's operation. They really didn't expect the emperor to have such thoughts. The second choice is fine. If the concubine doesn't like the emperor and doesn't want to see it, it's not wrong to send her to the temple to pray and practice. No.

But the first choice is really a bit ridiculous.

Since ancient times, no emperor would be willing to marry a woman of his status to an outsider. Some were forced, but none voluntarily.

Seeing that the two of them did not speak, Yinzhen also knew that it was difficult to make a decision for a while.

Yinzhen: "Think about this matter, I will know your choice in three days."

Neither Wang promised nor Li promised to get out of Qianqing Palace. Li promised not to go back to his residence, but followed Wang promised to her. The two need to discuss it.

The fact that the two were summoned by the emperor quickly spread throughout the harem, and everyone thought that the emperor had calmed down towards the queen!

As a result, the two of them stayed in Qianqing Palace for about a quarter of an hour before they came out, and they looked a little dazed after they came out!The two of them did not separate, and went to where King Zhongcui promised.

The two of them had just returned to sit down, and were about to discuss what to do when they heard the report from the maid, saying that Mrs. Jing had arrived.

Mrs. Jing also lives in Zhongcui Palace. Now that Concubine Hui is gone, there are only two young masters left in Zhongcui Palace, Mrs. Jing and Wang Xu. Mr. Jing is the status of a noble. When she comes, Wang Xu and Li Xu are two. I promised to stand up and meet him naturally.

Mrs. Jing came over with a smile. As soon as she came in, Wang promised and Li promised to greet her. Mrs. Jing said with a smile: "You two sisters don't need to be polite, the three of us sit down and talk."

Since there was no need to be too polite, Wang promised and Li promised to get up, and they didn't sit down until Mrs. Jing sat down.

Wang promised to be the host, and said with a smile: "Why is sister Jing here today?"

On weekdays, the two of them don't interfere with each other, but today they came to find out why the emperor summoned her and promised Li, Wang promised to be clear-eyed.

Jinggui smiled and said: "Sister misses my sister, is it because our Zhongcui Palace is too deserted, so I wanted to come over to talk to my sister, and I wanted to come over after lunch, but the elder sister said that Sister Wang and Sister Li I was summoned by the emperor, and I don't know what the emperor is looking for with the two younger sisters?"

Naturally, it is impossible for the two of them to tell Jing Guiren what the emperor told them. They will not let others know about such a shocking "choice".

Wang promised with a smile and said: "Sister and Sister Li are also confused! The emperor summoned Sister and Sister Li just asked some names and the brothers and sisters of Ama Erniang at home, and then let Sister and Sister Li come back .”

Mrs. Jing is a little unconvinced, the emperor wants to know these things and send someone to inquire, so why bother to ask in person.

But they didn't want to say it, and Mrs. Jing couldn't pry their mouths open.

Mrs. Jing knew that she couldn't find out anything.

Jinggui said with a smile: "The emperor thinks there is a reason for doing things, the two sisters are very lucky!"

Wang promised: "Then sister Chengjing will say auspicious words!"

Jingguiren: "At first I wanted to have more conversations with the two younger sisters, but I just realized that I still have some things to look at in person, so I went back first, and I will talk about family matters with the two younger sisters in the future."

Wang promised and Li promised to leave Jianjing nobleman, but the reason was right, so they got up and saw each other off.

After Mrs. Jing left, the two dismissed the servants in the room and started discussing together in a low voice.

Wang promised to be younger than Li promised, so she promised Li: "Sister Li, you are a little older than me, I wonder what my sister thinks?"

Li promised that he didn't know what to think anymore, so he said with a little confusion: "To tell you the truth, I don't have any idea in my heart. If I want to spend the rest of my life with the ancient Buddha of Qingdeng, I am not reconciled in my heart. Before drafting into the palace, I fantasized about finding someone to rely on in the future and have children for him. I am not willing to keep the ancient temple clean for the rest of my life! But... But the emperor asked us to remarry someone else, how can this happen!"

Li promised not to be reconciled, so how could Wang promise, but the first choice really made the two of them feel that it violated the norms of ethics.

Wang promised to sigh: "What my sister said is that I am not willing to live like a nun for the rest of my life, but..."

The two were unwilling to go to the temple to practice, but they felt that remarrying them was really against the rules, and they were in a dilemma.

In the end, the discussion between the two could only end without a problem.

During the next three days of thinking, the two met only once on the last day, and they finally made up their minds to remarry someone else.

They have thought it through these days, since the emperor can have this kind of thinking, it can be seen that he has a deep-rooted affection for the empress, they are not as talented as the empress, and their family background is low, so there must be no way out in the palace. They are really unwilling to practice in the temple, so they choose remarry.

Now that the emperor said, he will arrange their new identities, and it will be foolproof. It doesn't matter if they remarry someone else, at least the days of marriage will not be peaceful, and the days to come will be noisy and lively, there is always something to look forward to, isn't it? .

Seeing that both of them chose to remarry, Yinzhen ordered someone to arrange it.

Half a month after Yinzhen summoned them, the two of them went to Yongshou Palace, and invited them out of the palace to go to the temple to clean up and pray for the royal family.

Then the queen agreed, not only agreed, but also gave a lot of rewards, and the emperor also gave a lot of rewards.

Everyone in the harem was very confused, what Wang promised and Li promised to do, the queen in the palace only favored but did not treat the concubines in the harem too harshly, food and clothing costs are better than temples!
They all felt that their minds were confused.

Wang Xu and Li Xu, who had invited themselves to practice, were sitting in the carriage at the moment. They now had a new identity, becoming the daughters of a fourth-rank official who had been released to the outside world.

This official has only one wife and no concubine. The husband and wife are childhood sweethearts, singing in harmony. The result of the doctor's pulse diagnosis is that the official cannot have children. Now Yinzhen sent two daughters there. A child, Cheng Huan, is born, and when the two daughters get married and have children, they will be considered successors.

The official and his wife also welcomed the two daughters. It is not that they have never thought about adopting a child, but whether the children in the clan are suitable, the two daughters sent by the emperor are just right!

Concubine Rong always felt that there was something wrong with Wang Ying and Li Ying's sudden invitation to leave the palace, it was too sudden.

Concubine Rong thought to herself, could it be that the emperor or the empress wants to deal with the concubines in the harem?
After all, according to the degree of concern the emperor has for the queen, it is not impossible.

With such doubts, Concubine Rong couldn't continue to recite the Buddha.
