There’s a Dragon Girl in the Desolate Sea: 184. The seventeenth dragon scale (six)
The seventeenth dragon scale (6)
"I want you to be an old man's house fill?" The emperor repeated these words softly, as if he couldn't believe what he heard.
Linglong is very calm. Anyway, the person who is going to be married to an old man has nothing to do with her, but then again, it is her wit that she did not marry, although the emperor is also a half old man, in the end Handsome, tall and well maintained, that old man is really an old man. "Isn't this normal? Parents don't always feel sorry for their children."
The emperor narrowed his eyes, "I know."
"What do you know?" Linglong looked at him coolly, "What if you know? They didn't make any mistakes. When a daughter grows up, she will naturally want to marry, and who she wants to marry. It's my father, and I can't refuse to marry a rooster."
There is no expectation of her own marriage in her words. The emperor was originally angry because of her father. Hearing her tone, he suddenly realized something: "That's why you entered the palace? Is this your second choice? "
Linglong felt that he really had too much confidence in himself, as if all the women in the world knew he was the emperor and wanted to post it, he pouted, "What did your majesty say, keep me that night and won't let it go. It was you, Your Majesty, that I left, not me seduced."
After she finished speaking, she put her arms around the emperor's waist again, "However, Your Majesty knows people, I would rather be His Majesty's concubine than a chess piece in my father's hands to exchange benefits for him."
The emperor was coaxed back by her before he could get angry, but when he thought about Linglong's father, he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. should move.
Although he accompanies Linglong to make a fool of himself, in the end he still has national affairs first and cannot stay by Linglong's side all the time, and when the emperor is away, Linglong certainly doesn't think about him, she just wants to play by herself.
When I was tired of staying in the palace, I wanted to sneak out. The empress gave her a lot of freedom because she felt guilty for her, but Linglong doesn't like being followed. The emperor is very interested in her, it seems that Afraid that she would run away, people would always follow her, Linglong felt very annoying, so she secretly changed the clothes of the palace maid and prepared to leave the palace.
Of course she won't be discovered by the emperor. She also specially left a note on the table. The palace people will definitely cover her when they see it, otherwise their heads will not be protected. The days in the palace were a bit boring, and she wanted to go out and find something delicious.
She was mixed in with a group of palace maids, but as soon as she walked to the small palace gate, she saw someone walking in front of her. Linglong lowered her head. And her handsome face, with curiosity about her in her eyes: "Which palace are you from?"
Linglong hadn't seen him before, so she blinked her eyes and didn't intend to answer, but luckily the other party didn't exert any force, she broke free with a slight twist of her wrist, ran away quickly, and made a face at the young man before turning a corner: "Don't tell me you!"
The young man was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and told the palace servants around him: "Go and find out which palace the little palace maid is from, and come back and report."
"Yes."
Although she was among a group of palace maids, she was outstanding. The clothes on her body were obviously ill-fitting. The little palace maid just now told him to see a red spike while walking. If he remembered correctly, the red spike faintly revealed the exit token in the hands of the queen. How could it be in the hands of a little palace maid?
However, he has just returned from work now, so it is better to go back and report to the emperor first. There are so many involved in this major corruption case, and he really can't make the decision. In any case, he is just a prince. Even if he has power, it is a gift from the emperor, and he can take it back at any time.
It was not a big deal for the queen to send a beautiful little palace maid out of the palace. What made him wonder was why the other party wanted to be sneaky?
Meeting the emperor, the emperor was furious at the evidence he presented, and resolutely investigated and dealt with a number of corrupt officials involved in the case, and rewarded him. When the official business was over, the relationship between the emperor and the minister became father and son. " After you've been away for a long time, since you're back, go see your mother-in-law more, don't let her always think about it."
"Yes, the son has written it down, the father can rest assured." The third prince chuckled.
The emperor looked at this proud son with satisfaction, "Okay, you can step down."
"My son retire."
The third prince went back to Concubine Hui. He is already an adult prince. He opened a mansion outside and has long lived in the palace. In order to train him, the emperor often gave him some errands to do when he became an adult. The mother and son spend less time together. Every time they meet Concubine Hui, they have to talk to each other, telling him not to lose to the prince, and not to let the father and emperor disappoint him. After listening for a long time, his ears will grow calluses.
The same is true this time. The third prince looked at Concubine Hui and sighed, "Concubine Mother, your face is not very good, but you haven't had a good rest these days?"
"How can this palace rest well!" Concubine Hui gritted her teeth and said, "Since that little **** entered the palace, His Majesty will not come to this palace again, and the queen has blocked this palace, and that little **** is also arrogant. How can the palace live comfortably!"
The third prince remained silent and took a sip of the mellow tea. His mother and concubine were graceful and luxurious in front of others, and they were gentle and eloquent in front of the father and emperor. They were also kind to the emperor's sister. He can say anything and do anything. He has heard this so many times since he was a child, but he finds it strange that the mother concubine herself entered the palace and stole the queen's favor, so she should know that the emperor is ruthless. In the past few years, every time the emperor favored a concubine, she would resent it once, what's the point?
Tell him to see that the emperor is the emperor, and the concubine is the concubine.
"Mother concubine, you are now in a very high position. No one in the harem can match you except the queen. You have my son and daughter, Xiao Wu, why do you want more? The queen and father are the same. Young couple, if he really abolishes the queen for you, the son will feel chilling."
Concubine Hui was annoyed: "You child, you can't help this palace! In short, you are good at it! Compare the prince in front of your father and the emperor. If things go on like this, Your Majesty will naturally know who is the most suitable—"
"Mother concubine!" The third prince frowned, "Be careful!"
"Where did Ben Gong make a mistake? You were born so well, and the grandfather praised you for your talent and intelligence. How could you be worse than the prince, why should you be subservient to others?"
The third prince was very indifferent: "The elders are orderly and the descendants are different. The mother concubine looks down on other concubines and the emperor's younger brother and sister, so why can't she recognize her own identity?"
"What's wrong with Ben Gong's identity? Isn't Ben Gong a hundred times stronger than a commoner queen?" Concubine Hui is most angry that her son doesn't understand her at all. After so many years, the mother and son have drifted farther and farther. She couldn't communicate with each other, she planned for him, but he didn't appreciate it at all, "If Ben Gong met Your Majesty first, she would definitely be able to help His Majesty better than the Empress, she just came earlier than Ben Gong! Don't you think that Can't you be submissive for a lifetime?!"
The third prince felt more and more that it was not opportunistic to talk with Concubine Hui. He shook his head, but he didn't say it. In his opinion, the concubine came from a noble family and was arrogant. The unfavorable prince who was very modest and kept a low profile, let alone sacrificed like a queen.
Simply put, the mother and the concubine can share joy with the royal father but cannot share weal and woe, but the queen and the royal father can share weal and woe but cannot share joy. In the final analysis, the problem lies with the royal father.
He is an emperor, and he can be called a great talent and has a long-term plan, but he is not very good as a husband when asked by the third prince. However, it is a bit ridiculous to use the standard of ordinary husband and wife to ask the emperor. He doesn't know the story between the father and the queen, but after all these years, the queen's behavior has been seen by the third prince, and he really doesn't understand. What is the mother-in-law fighting for?
Although he and the crown prince cannot be called siblings, they also sympathize with each other and will never do anything to hurt their brothers.
I'm afraid that the mother concubine will do anything for him, even if he doesn't want it.
The third prince thought about it again and again, but still didn't say it. He patted Concubine Hui's back lightly: "Don't be angry, concubine mother, you are not feeling well, and you are not well motivated."
Concubine Hui rolled her eyes at him, "I don't know, you still don't listen to the words of the concubine."
She really loves and is angry with this son. The child has his own ideas when he grows up, and doesn't listen to her at all. But she is a mother, so she naturally has to consider her son. He is young and energetic, I don't know what's best for him. Now that His Majesty is still healthy and able to protect him, who knows that the Crown Prince and the Third Prince are on an equal footing? When His Majesty is a hundred years old, the prince ascends the throne, and the queen becomes the queen mother, where will their mother and son survive!
Since ancient times, what emperor could tolerate his wonderful brother?
From Concubine Hui's point of view, the third prince was just too young to be deceived by the hypocrisy of the queen and the prince. There can never be a truly upright person in the world! Even their own parents and sisters will intrigue, let alone the royal family?
None of the mother and son could convince each other, so Concubine Hui had to nag from another angle: "Concubine Mu said you don't like to listen to it, Concubine Mu will ask you, when are you going to get married? Concubine Mu has shown you several homes. Girl, look at the portrait, and if you like it, ask your father to marry him—"
The third prince, who was a good girl in her mouth, knew very well that regardless of her appearance, it was only about her background. The concubine wanted him to marry a noble girl and win over the courtiers. This is why he still refuses to get married. Getting bigger and bigger, the mother-in-law is getting more and more anxious, but when will she realize that he doesn't want to be an emperor at all?
