Just when Wei Jingxuan was thinking hard about getting out of trouble, a decree suddenly came from the Yangxin Hall, asking Wei Jingxuan to go to the Yangxin Hall immediately. Hearing the news, everyone in the Yongshou Palace was very happy, knowing that at this moment, Li and Ke had passed away.
It's been a month since Ning's death, and Hongli has never summoned Wei Jingxuan. Now that he suddenly summoned Wei Jingxuan, he must have lost his temper.
Wei Jingxuan was also filled with joy. After changing her clothes, she held Mao Gui's hand and headed to the Yangxin Palace. When she got there, the palace man opened the door for her after giving her a quick call.
Wei Jingxuan stepped over the knee-high vermilion threshold and walked into the palace, saying softly: "I, my concubine, see you, Your Majesty. May Your Majesty be in peace."
Hearing the voice, Hongli put down the ink pen in his hand, raised his head and looked at her and said solemnly: "My concubine, do you know what I am calling you for today?"
Wei Jingxuan could hear the displeasure hidden behind his words, and she was wary and said cautiously: "I don't know, please let me know, Your Majesty."
As soon as she finished speaking, a cold snort sounded in her ears, "The queen told me before that you had ulterior motives for asking Wei Xiuyan to enter the palace. I still don't believe it. Now it seems that I thought of you two sisters too easily."
So much so that I don’t even know that I was deceived by you.”
Hearing this, Wei Jingxuan was shocked. It had been nearly two months since Xiuyan left the palace. Why did Hongli suddenly mention her? And listening to her words, it seemed that he knew her true intention of letting Xiuyan enter the palace.
Hongli mentioned the queen just now... Could it be that she was slandering Hongli again? Thinking of this, she was filled with hatred and anger, but she had to endure it. She knelt down with a look of fear on her face and said, "I really don't want to be with you."
I understand the emperor's intention. When I asked the emperor to let Xiuyan enter the palace, I made my intention clear. Other than that, I have no other intention. Please understand it clearly!"
Hongli stood up and walked to her, looked at her condescendingly and said, "I just believed your sophistry that day and didn't delve deeper into it. Unexpectedly, I fell into your trap. Wei Jingxuan, you are so capable."
A layer of cold sweat broke out on the tip of Wei Jingxuan's nose. She lowered her eyes and said, "I have been deeply favored by the emperor over the years. I ask myself that even if I have great courage, I would not dare to deceive the emperor."
Hongli said coldly: "So, I have wronged you?"
Wei Jingxuan said hurriedly: "I don't dare. I just feel that there might be something behind this matter..."
Hongli stared at her for a long time, then suddenly showed a smile as cold as fresh snow, "Yong Rong admitted it himself, but you can tell me what the inside story is?"
Yong Rong? Wei Jingxuan raised her head in astonishment. After making eye contact with Hong Li, she quickly lowered her head and asked in confusion: "I wonder what the sixth elder brother asked the emperor for?"
"He wants to accept Wei Xiuyan as his side." Hongli said with a cold face: "They had been in contact with each other when they were in the palace. After leaving the palace, the two of them never stopped contacting each other and fell in love privately. They even got married.
situation
"If someone hadn't told me, I would have been kept in the dark when Wei Xiuyan entered the Liubeile Mansion." He took a breath and continued: "I know Yong Rong very well. He has always been honest and has no independent opinions.
what requirement
He had to ask me before he could make a decision, but now he sent the betrothal gift to the Wei Mansion without telling me. When I asked him just now, he was very precise, saying that he had already sent the betrothal gift, and he must accept Wei Xiuyan as his side.
Someone is there
Instigating behind his back!" After a moment's pause, Hongli emphasized his tone and said: "What is his identity, and what is Wei Xiuyan's identity, not to mention how many years older she is than Yong Rong, side Fujin - it's simply ridiculous!"
As he spoke, Wei Jingxuan's heart continued to sink, not because of his rebuke, but because of his opinion of Wei Xiuyan. Hongli was so opposed to Wei Xiuyan marrying the sixth elder brother as a side prince, and wanted him to accept Wei Xiuyan as his concubine in the future.
...Unless Hongli changes his temper, it is simply impossible.
Before she could figure it out, Hong Li said: "What's wrong? Do you think the Wei family is not powerful enough now, so you want to use Wei Xiuyan to get Yong Rong?"
She suppressed her thoughts and hurriedly said: "I and my family are just common people, and sometimes even food and clothing are a problem. Fortunately, the emperor favored me. Not only did I reward my family with a house, but I also let my two brothers live in the house for five years."
The city's military commander is now an envoy to the government. Over the years, I and my family have always been grateful for the emperor's kindness, and I will never dare to think about it again."
"Really?" Hongli said expressionlessly: "The envoys under the command of the military commanders of the five cities are just low-ranking petty officials. Do you really think that the concubines are interested in them?"
Wei Jingxuan's body trembled when she heard these words, and she hurriedly kowtowed: "Everything I said is true, not a word is false. I really have no knowledge about Xiuyan and Sixth Brother, otherwise I will definitely stop it!" etc.
After a while, Hongli didn't say anything, and she said again: "I know Xiuyan's situation very well. She is older than the sixth elder brother, and she has been married before. Let alone Fu Jin, even if she enters the house as Princess, it will be extremely difficult.
Unworthy."
Her words made Hongli's face turn slightly, and he snorted coldly: "Finally, you still have some self-awareness, but it's a pity that Yongrong..." When it comes to Yongrong, Hongli somewhat hates that iron cannot make steel. He just mentioned the two of them again and again.
With their identities so different, Yong Rong still insisted on doing it. If he hadn't seen him angry later, he wouldn't have dared to say anything, or he would still be kneeling in the Yangxin Hall.
Seeing that Hongli's tone had softened, she hurriedly added: "When Xiuyan was in the palace, she mentioned her future plans to my concubine. After she learned Taoism from Taoist Aunt Xuanjing, although she did not become a monk, she devoted herself to Taoism.
, I have no intention of getting married, so I am thinking...could this be the wishful thinking of Brother Six and not what Xiuyan thought about?"
Hongli sneered and said: "You can protect her well. If Wei Xiuyan has no thoughts, will the Wei family accept the betrothal gift?"
"Concubine..." Before Wei Jingxuan could continue, Hongli said again: "Wei Jingxuan, I restore you to the position of concubine for the sake of He Jing and the others. If you and your family are unwilling to live in peace and order, don't blame me.
I don’t care about love anymore;
You have cruelly handed over He Ke to Concubine Shen, and you don’t care about leaving He Jing and the others to be raised by others." It was the intertwining of old and new hatreds that made Hongli angry.
On Wei Jingxuan.
Wei Jingxuan cried and said: "So in the emperor's heart, I am such a cruel and unfeeling person? He Ke is my biological daughter who was born in ten months of pregnancy. I gave her to Concubine Shen to raise. How could I be willing to let it go?
But it is very difficult for the concubine to take care of the three of them alone. Yes, there are nannies and palace people to take care of their food, clothing, and daily life, but for them, it is far from enough.
Enough, especially since the little princess is weak and needs more energy from me to take care of her. I am really incapable of doing anything. When I was still in confinement, because my mother-in-law didn’t see He Ke, she almost fell off the bed.
, He Ke is less than three years old, I am really afraid that something will happen to her, and seeing that she is so in love with Shen Bin, I gave her to Shen Bin to raise after much thought."
