Chapter 6 She tried her best
"Chu Lichen." She finished the imperial decree and lowered her head slightly, "From now on, you and Ah Yin will have a good time, King Shun'an, Princess Shun'an, even if they are not as good as before, they will be rich and honored for life."

The forbidden step that fell behind the bun also hung down to the shoulders, and the light streamers were blown up by the wind blowing in from the open window.

The man raised his head suddenly, and the messy hair was blown away, revealing a pair of bloodshot, angry and helpless eyes.

"Zhenzhen, what conditions did you agree to?"

Seeing the extremely fragile expression on the man's face, Gu Ruzhen felt that the world was unpredictable.

It turned out that a man who used to be only clever, self-centered, and even played some childish tricks would one day feel helpless and vulnerable.

This looked really strange.

"I don't know." Gu Ruzhen shook her head, "He didn't say anything, and I didn't ask."

Gu Ruzhen didn't care why Emperor Tianqin showed mercy to let Chu Lichen survive, she always cared only about the Gu family.

"Zhenzhen, is he threatening you? Don't worry, even if it's to stabilize the situation, he won't take a virtuous person lightly."

"So don't trust him, and don't go with him."

Chu Lichen's pupils narrowed slightly, he stood up and grabbed her arm.

As a result, the bright yellow imperial decree fell to the ground and rolled around twice before reaching Gu Ruzhen's feet again.

The heart of an emperor is moody and unpredictable, and no one can fathom it.

She thought, why would he think that she would bet the entire Gu family's life on it to verify whether his speculation was right or wrong?

If he made a mistake and the Gu family lost their lives, would he take the responsibility?

Gu Ruzhen frowned slightly, and pushed his hand away.

She walked to the window, the window was slightly opened, and she could see Wei Shengsi standing not far away.

Looking at the sky through the slit-open window, only part of it can be seen.

Just like she is in this palace, the sky is also square.

"Whether he threatened me or not, does it make a difference?"

Not to mention Emperor Tianqin, even the original Chu Lichen, wouldn't she have no way to refuse?
"Chu Lichen, there is no difference between you and him in my heart. Maybe he gave me a better impression. At least he didn't threaten me with my family."

Hearing this, Chu Lichen's whole body was stiff, and he paused in his forward steps, before falling to the ground in a panic.

He lowered his head and let out a low growl, like a wild animal struggling helplessly.

Standing outside the door, Wei Sheng raised his eyebrows unconsciously. It seems that Miss Gu's feelings for this King Shun'an are worth investigating.

After all, all the words that reached his ears were the words of Emperor Qingxuan's mutual love and affection.

However, it now appears that the rumors were wrong.

It looked as if Emperor Qingxuan deliberately let people spread these words.

Wei Sheng walked out without a trace, and when his eyes fell on the side hall, the corners of his lips could not help but curl up.

Miss Gu is so smart, she must be the clearest about Chu Lichen's approach.

An emperor treated her so well, she was unmoved.

It seems that His Majesty's future days will be very lively.

"Zhenzhen, do you still hate me?" Chu Lichen murmured.

When Gu Ruzhen heard this, she felt that Chu Lichen's words were a bit tactful. Could it be that her hatred and indifference were not obvious enough?

"Before I got married, my father told me in the study that whether I want this marriage contract or not, it is a foregone conclusion. Since it is a foregone conclusion, I can only accept it."

"So after getting married, although I can't treat you as a wife, I feel that as a queen, what I do is appropriate."

"When you were indulging in wine and sex and playing with your concubine all day long, I invited a few ministers with real talents and high status to discuss court affairs. From the beginning to the end, I did not participate in the discussion, and even stood outside the door I didn't listen to it, because the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics."

"However, the result is that you relegated all these ministers. From then on, no matter how much you mess around, I can't find anyone to deal with the court affairs."

"Chu Lichen, I tried my best and tried my best, but in the end I failed."

In Chu Lichen's hands, Qingxuan was indeed exhausted and unable to recover, but if Chu Lichen had put his mind on government affairs, Qingxuan would not have ended in a disastrous defeat.

She didn't need to guess that other countries... or should I say other counties now, felt that it was ridiculous for the Tianqin army to attack Qingxuan, as if entering a land without people.

Although it is a hundred steps to laugh at fifty steps, but such ridicule is not wrong.

After all, others were really resisting with all their strength, and it was rare for people like Qingxuan to welcome the Tianqin army into the city.

For these tortured people, the Tianqin army is the god who rescued them from the fire and water.

This cannot be blamed on the common people, nor can it be blamed on the Tian Qin army.

Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it. The people are the water, and the king is the boat.

If the ruler cannot understand this truth, then one day the boat will be riddled with holes and covered by water.

"Zhen Zhen."

I don't know how long it took before the man collapsed on the ground asked with red eyes, "You clearly know that I did all this for you, why don't you care at all."

"Even if I choose a concubine and favor other women, you don't show any displeasure, Zhenzhen, is it because you hide it too well, or do you not care about me at all?"

"It wasn't until I welcomed Gu Ruyin into the palace that you broke into the Palace of Qinzheng and begged me to take back my will. Zhenzhen, why, since you don't like me, why did you plead for me this time? And why did you agree with me because of Gu Ruyin? Jealous?"

Gu Ruzhen's eyes turned completely cold, she bent down, and suddenly stretched out her right hand in the man's expectant eyes, strangling his throat.

Her hand didn't stop, so after a while, the man's throat and cheeks were flushed, and he wanted to speak but couldn't speak a word.

"Chu Lichen, do you still dare to mention Ah Yin to me? Do you really think I'm pleading for you? If Ah Yin didn't like you, I wouldn't care about you."

The pain in her throat made Chu Lichen know that she really wanted his life.

After a while, Gu Ruzhen let go of her sleeves and stood up.

Putting her hands together in her sleeves, she lowered her eyes, not seeing the coldness just now, "You are King Shun'an, you should live well for the former Qingxuan, you are alive, the rest of the Qingxuan royal family, everyone Some of them can live, and if you die, they will all die too."

There were still clear red marks on the man's throat, which gradually turned purple over time.

When Gu Ruzhen walked to the door, she put her hands on the door and was about to push it open.

A man's hoarse voice came from behind.

"Zhenzhen, if I hadn't sent someone to kill him, would you like me, even a little bit, would you?"
