"My son is not my father. I am a man of flesh and blood. She is his woman. I will be responsible to the end and will never be a person who starts in chaos and ends up giving up."
Beigong Tengxiao's obsidian eyes stared at him closely, a trace of hatred flashed across his solemn expression.
Bei Gonglie swallowed his saliva and felt a sense of guilt in his heart. He softened his voice a little and said: "Xiao'er, I still have your mother in my heart..."
With a "pop" sound, the chess piece that Beigong Tengxiao was twisting with his fingertips shattered, and tiny particles fell onto the chessboard, making a rustling sound.
He breathed out softly and said: "Why didn't Queen Mother hope that my father would only fall in love with her? Twelve years ago, when Concubine Ling entered the palace, my father had already been fascinated by her and couldn't take his eyes away.
Nothing like that happened to my mother, and my father can’t guarantee that he won’t abandon her all the time, right?”
"You!" Beigong Lie choked. Before being captured by Emperor Dongling, he had indeed lost his love for her and had other women in his heart...
"My father's favored concubines emerged in endlessly, and there were countless resentful concubines in the cold palace. My mother was the most beautiful woman in the Western Imperial Kingdom. She was very beautiful before her death. Even Concubine Ling was slightly inferior to her.
"But if you count the years, if your mother is still alive, she is still in her thirties and has known your father for thirty years. When your mother appears in front of you at this time, do you dare to say with a clear conscience that you are not tired of her or tired of her?
?"
"How dare you speak to me in such a tone!" Bei Gonglie slapped his palm on the table in embarrassment and glared at him.
Beigong Tengxiao was not afraid of his anger and still looked directly into his eyes and said: "My son does not want to follow the same path as his father. I love Jiao Li very much and can only hold her in my eyes and heart."
It is wrong to allow anyone to criticize her. Jiao Li is gentle, kind and virtuous, and has never hindered her children from achieving success. Just now, my father said that she is a beauty and a disaster, please take it back."
Bei Gonglie narrowed his eyes slightly, remained silent for a while, and then said in a low voice: "I can take it back, but you have to be responsible for the consequences of your own actions."
Hearing this, Beigong Tengxiao gently raised the corners of his lips and said, "My son, I will definitely take responsibility."
The next day, at dawn, we live in peace and harmony.
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
Chu Jiaoli, who was doing embroidery in the courtyard, heard Xiao Lanzi yelling into the princess's palace with a high-pitched voice. She was slightly startled, and immediately stopped the embroidery in her hands. Chu Jiaoxing and Chu Jiao were playing in the courtyard.
Tang heard the sound and came over and knelt in front of Xiaolanzi.
Chu Jiaoli raised her eyebrows in confusion, what would be the content of the imperial edict to Anheju?
I saw Xiaolanzi unfolding the imperial edict and read: "By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: I heard that Princess Anhe, Chu Jiaoli, is virtuous, generous, gentle, honest, and has outstanding appearance. Now that the prince is already weak, he is suitable for marriage.
We should choose a virtuous daughter and a match. When An and the princess are waiting in the boudoir, she and the prince are a match made in heaven and earth. In order to become a beautiful woman, Ru'an and the prince Xu are specially appointed as the crown princess. All etiquette is handed over to the Ministry of Rites and Qin Tian.
The supervisors and supervisors are working together to get married at the right time. I appreciate this!"
After finishing her words, Chu Jiaoli stared at her eyes, full of shock.
Also shocked were Chu Jiaoxing and Chu Jiaotang next to them.
"Third sister! You are going to be the crown princess!"
"Yes, Li'er, His Royal Highness is finally going to marry you!"
The two of them were surprised and excited, but Chu Jiaoli blinked her eyes, raised her eyes to look at Xiao Lanzi, gently opened her lips and said, "What?"
Hearing this, everyone was stunned. Xiaolanzi couldn't see clearly what the emotion was on her face. She was stuck in place and didn't know what to say. He smiled politely and said, "What do you mean, Princess?"
Chu Jiaoli's eyes were startled and hesitant, and she said: "Can you read it again? I... didn't hear it clearly."
"This..." Xiaolanzi frowned slightly, he had never encountered such a situation.
"It doesn't matter! She is so happy that she is so happy. Eunuch Lan, just read it loudly again." Chu Jiaoxing said with a smile.
"Oh..." Xiaolanzi understood immediately and read the contents of the imperial edict again.
Seeing that Chu Jiaoli still looked stupid, he frowned in embarrassment and said, "Princess Anhe, why don't you quickly accept the order and thank me?"
The dull Chu Jiaoli was pushed by Chu Jiaoxing before she raised her hands to accept the order and said: "Thank you, Lord, for your kindness."
After Xiaolanzi walked away, she was helped up by Chu Jiaoxing and Chu Jiaotang.
Unfolding the imperial edict, she looked at the contents of the edict carefully, her body couldn't stop trembling, looking at the jade seal signed with it, and said: "This is the imperial edict, the royal family has appointed me as the crown prince..." p>
As she finished speaking, her heartbeat gradually accelerated and her legs became a little unsteady.
"Li'er!" As Chu Jiaoxing exclaimed, Chu Jiaoli's eyes darkened and she lost consciousness.
Half an hour later.
Beigong Tengxiao hurriedly stepped into the backyard of Anheju and was about to enter the room when he bumped into Chu Jiaoxing.
Chu Jiaoxing was suddenly startled and exhaled softly.
Beigong Tengxiao frowned worriedly and said, "How is Li'er?"
Chu Jiaoxing raised her eyes and looked at Beigong Tengxiao and said: "I don't know. I fainted after reading the imperial edict. When I woke up, I kept crying. No matter how I coaxed it, I couldn't stop the tears."
She was a little confused. Chu Jiaoli was definitely willing to marry Beigong Tengxiao, but wasn't her reaction too exciting?
Beigong Tengxiao asked: "What did the doctor say?"
Chu Jiaoxing shook her head and said: "The doctor said it was just that she was too excited and there was nothing serious about it."
"Princess, the chicken soup is ready." The maid walked to the door carrying the soup.
Chu Jiaoxing took the bowl and spoon, smiled at Beigong Tengxiao and said: "Li'er likes chicken soup the most. Serve it to her. She may feel better after drinking it."
"Thank you." Beigong Tengxiao nodded, took the chicken soup and walked into the house.
Opening the bead curtain, you can see the back of a huddled figure wrapped in quilt.
Beigong Tengxiao was sitting on the edge of the couch. Hearing her sobs, he raised his hand to twist a strand of her black hair, sighed softly, and said: "The surprise turned into a shock. Who would have thought that my Li'er
My heart is not working so well, and now that I have entered the Prince's Mansion, I have to find a doctor to be by my side for Li'er, just in case."
Chu Jiaoli bit her lip, hummed softly, and said in a crying voice: "Who wants to marry you, who wants to be the crown prince..."
Beigong Tengxiao smiled fondly and said: "Why, the imperial edict has been issued, do you still want to escape from the marriage?"
Chu Jiaoli's thoughts were confused, she frowned and said: "Why didn't you ask me for my opinion? I was thinking of going to the Imperial College tomorrow, but how did I know that now there is a decree granting marriage, I... why should I get married?
To you? You are marrying by force! This is too much!"
Beigong Tengxiao suppressed a smile and said: "Then I know you will refuse, so why do I need to ask you and let you find an opportunity to stop me from asking for a marriage decree?"
"You!" Chu Jiaoli turned around and looked at him with aggrieved eyebrows, her bright peach blossom eyes sparkling with tears, and her long curled eyelashes hanging with crystal tears.
