72. Chapter 72 He is the father of the child (2)
Li Yifeng looked at her, and the smile on his face faded slightly. There was a hint of nervousness, and there was a bit of obvious pretentious warning, as if he was afraid that she would agree.
There is another reason why he came out to oppose at all costs just now, and that is Ye Wujue. If Meng Qianxun is named the princess now, and when the two countries get married, Ye Wujue will choose Meng Qianxun again.
It is a matter of course that no one can say anything. The emperor will definitely agree if it interferes with the power of Fenglan Kingdom.
Of course, if Meng Qianxun was made the princess, he could deny Huangpu Tuo's opportunity, but in comparison, he would rather his opponent be Huangpu Tuo instead of Ye Wujue.
Ye Wujue is a scary opponent.
When Meng Qianxun saw Li Yifeng's appearance, the corners of his lips curled up slightly. What was this man nervous about?
"Your Majesty, I have a humble status as a civilian girl. I really don't dare to accept such a canonization." When Meng Qianxun said this, he noticed that the emperor's face had turned very ugly.
Meng Qianxun lowered her eyes slightly, and it was just as she expected, so she continued again, "If the emperor really wants to compensate the women of the people, can there be another way?"
She would never let matters that could be resolved peacefully deteriorate to the point of using force, and her purpose was to strive for the greatest benefit for herself at the most critical moment.
"Then what do you want?" After hearing her words, the emperor's face became slightly better. After all, Meng Qianxun did not refuse directly, but his voice was still cold.
"The common girl wants to ask the emperor for an amulet." Meng Qianxun raised her eyes and said slowly word by word. There were so many people who wanted to harm her, and they haven't stopped since she traveled here.
Although she was on guard at all times, there was no guarantee that something would be missed one day, so at the moment she just wanted to ask the emperor for something like a gold medal to avoid death.
The corners of Li Yifeng's lips raised slightly. This woman was really pervasive. In this way, she not only gave the emperor a step down, but also benefited herself. She was really good at calculating things.
The emperor was stunned. He obviously did not expect that Meng Qianxun would make such a request. He naturally understood what she meant. Considering that she had just offended her father, the situation at this moment was indeed dangerous.
Therefore, he could understand that she made such a request. Although the request was a bit excessive, considering the prince's betrayal first, and then thinking about the jade-blood spirit bead, it was still worth it in exchange for the jade-blood spirit bead with an amulet.
"You girl, you are so ignorant that you even negotiated terms with the emperor in public." The queen already hated Meng Qianxun deeply because of what happened just now. The emperor agreed to Concubine Hui's proposal earlier, and she
No matter what he said, now that he heard Meng Qianxun mention such a girl, he couldn't help but roared angrily.
"Father, my son just said that she is very insidious. Father should believe it now." The prince also took the opportunity to say.
"Queen, this girl may have been frightened just now, so she made such a request to the Emperor." Concubine Hui said softly again, her voice full of tenderness, and she looked at Meng Qianxun with a loving expression.
Laughing, she didn't feel dissatisfied at all because Meng Qianxun rejected her proposal.
"Well, Concubine Hui is right. I can understand this girl making such a request at this time." When the emperor looked at Concubine Hui, his face finally softened, and the coldness in his voice became less.
It can be seen that the emperor still loves Concubine Hui very much.
The queen was furious. She didn't expect that Concubine Hui would disobey her in public and plead for the girl everywhere. What did Concubine Hui mean? What benefits did the girl give her to help the girl like this?
If that girl really gets the amulet given by the emperor, it will be even more troublesome to harm her in the future.
"Yes, I will." The queen was secretly anxious, thinking about how to stop the emperor, but the emperor obviously agreed to Meng Qianxun's plea and was about to issue an order.
"Ah, ah." But at this moment, a miserable cry suddenly came from not far away, and the voice was panicked and filled with a kind of despair.
"What's going on?" The emperor's face changed as he was about to issue the decree, and he asked in a deep voice, "Who is shouting outside?"
The guards outside came in one after another and said carefully, "Back to the emperor, it's the second young lady of the Meng family."
"What's going on with her?" The emperor was slightly stunned, and his face full of anger was a little more confused. Why is it all the Meng family's business?
How could Meng Ruoxi be shouting in the palace?
Although Meng Ruoxi's previous incident alarmed the Queen Mother and others, they did not dare or come to report it to the Emperor.
"Back to the emperor, the girl Ruoxi's clothes suddenly caught fire and she was burned. Her clothes were also burned away. The girl was frightened and was stunned. She couldn't even recognize the person, so I took her with me.
When I arrived at Huilan Palace, I asked the imperial doctor to check the injury, apply medicine, and ordered the palace maids to take care of her. She suddenly screamed, probably coming to her senses, sad, and scared." Concubine Hui spoke again, with a beautiful face.
His eyes felt a little heavier, and he sighed slightly, "Hey, no matter who it is, no one can admit that such a thing happened. I pity that girl."
"How could such a thing happen?" The emperor frowned slightly, his face looking a little heavier, "How could something so good catch on fire?"
"It's strange to say that the ladies who were with her said they didn't know what was going on. They were all standing with Meng Ruoxi. They all said that suddenly Meng Ruoxi's body was on fire and they didn't see clearly.
What's going on?" Concubine Hui replied slowly, her voice a little more sad, "I saw that the girl looked really pitiful at that time, so I brought her to Huilan Palace. I didn't expect that."
"This is not your fault." When the emperor saw Concubine Hui blaming herself, he actually comforted her in public, which showed that Concubine Hui was very fond of the emperor.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Miss Meng Er is making a big fuss in Huilan Palace, and the servants are unable to restrain her." A little palace maid came in tremblingly, and said with a look of fear on her face.
Outside, Meng Ruoxi's screams became louder and louder, becoming more and more terrifying.
"Where is Meng Xiaotian?" The emperor's face became increasingly ugly as he listened to the screams. He suddenly thought of Meng Xiaotian and asked coldly.
"Back to the emperor, the imperial physician is treating General Meng's wounds. I heard that General Meng just fainted due to pain. The imperial physician gave him another anesthetic. He should not have woken up yet." A guard replied repeatedly.
The emperor frowned and his face was gloomy.
"Your Majesty, I'd better go and take a look." Concubine Hui's face became a little more nervous. She stood up and said worriedly.
"Well, you go ahead, be careful, don't let her hurt you, and ask a few guards to follow you." The emperor nodded slightly and gave instructions in a low voice. There was a little more appreciation in his eyes when he looked at Concubine Hui, so
