"Hui Bin and Jin Bin were kneeling outside, and you came in to beg me. Are you three deliberately going against me?" Although Yinzhen never went out, he was not really indifferent to Wen Ruyan.
, on the contrary, he knows everything about the outside world.
"I know I shouldn't, but I really can't bear to see Sister Wen so sad." As soon as Ling Ruo finished speaking, Yinzhen coldly followed up, "You can't bear to make her sad, so you can make it difficult for me.
. Ruo'er, in your heart, is it not important for me to have a concubine?"
"I don't mean it this way." Ling Ruo didn't expect that Yinzhen would misunderstand like this. When he was about to explain, Yinzhen had already rolled his sleeves angrily, turned his back and said: "If you didn't mean it this way, you shouldn't come to me again and again to beg me.
, I have made it clear to you that this matter is related to the tranquility of the Qing Dynasty. I can still understand that Hui concubine is obsessed with Han Yan and forgets her sense of proportion, but what about you?"
"My concubine is guilty, but if this continues, Sister Wen may really die." At the end of the sentence, Ling Ruo burst into tears, unable to trust herself.
"What about me, how do I treat you on weekdays, and today, are you using this attitude to repay me?" Turning around, Yinzhen showed pain in his eyes. No one can understand it, except Ling Ruobu.
Can.
How could Ling Ruo fail to see that she absolutely didn't want to hurt Yinzhen, but he kept making things difficult for her.
"I'll give you one last chance, stand down!" Yinzhen shouted loudly. When he found Ling Ruo kneeling on the ground motionless, his pain finally turned into anger. After more than twenty years of grace, and going to the palace in person
The external affection for her return has made this woman unable to recognize her own identity, and she is trying to influence his thoughts.
The Nian family is not the only one who relies on favor to become arrogant, Ling Ruo is also the same.
"You're not going to retreat, are you? Okay! Very good!" After saying this, Yinzhen suddenly walked behind the case, laid out the paper and started writing. When he was polishing the pen, he found that the ink in the inkstone had dried, and shouted at Si Xi: "I'm stunned.
What are you doing there? Why don't you come over here and sharpen your ink?"
"Yes." Si Xi hurriedly bent over to grind the ink and add water, always worried, lest Yinzhen would vent his anger. Fortunately, he didn't. After the ink came out, Yinzhen immediately polished the pen and wrote quickly. Sixi glanced secretly, and then some
Looking at Ling Ruo who was kneeling on the ground with sympathy, she sighed secretly, Concubine Xi was destined to beg in vain this time.
After he stopped writing, Yinzhen took the jade seal from the brocade box, covered it with force on the paper, and then threw it in front of Ling Ruo, "Look carefully, this is the imperial edict for Han Yan to go to Zhungeer to get married. It is written in black and white on the paper.
There is no room for change anymore, you can give up on this idea."
Ling Ruo stared blankly at the imperial edict that fell in front of him, unable to believe that all this was true. After a long time, he squeezed out a distorted voice from his trembling lips, "Your Majesty, you... you can't do this."
"Why not?" Yinzhen laughed angrily, with a rare ferocious look on his face, "I am the emperor, do I need to get your concubine Xi's approval for what I do?"
"I don't dare!" Ling Ruo said bitterly, but she didn't expect that her plea would actually cause Yinzhen to issue an order in advance. It was really unexpected.
Yinzhen stood up while holding the case, and said in an unquestionable tone: "The imperial edict is in front of you, you can tear it up, but I will write another one. In short, the marriage is inevitable and no one can change it.
"Yin Zhen is for the Qing Dynasty, while Ling Ruo is for Wen Ruyan. Such conflicts are bound to be irreconcilable.
Deathly loneliness shrouded the sky above Yangxin Hall, and Sixi felt that it was even difficult to breathe. After a long time, he finally saw Ling Ruo stand up from the ground with difficulty, bowed to Yinzhen, and said numbly: "I understand, I understand.
That’s it, I, my concubine, will retire.”
"I hope you really understand." Yinzhen's words made Ling Ruo hesitate in his steps, but he never looked back. He just left the Yangxin Palace step by step.
After Ling Ruo left, Yinzhen smashed the topaz Pixiu paperweight on the table in anger.
Amidst the faint sound behind her, Ling Ruo slowly told Wen Ruyan the contents of the imperial edict. When all hope was cut off to the last trace, Wen Ruyan finally couldn't bear the blow and fainted.
After she passed by, the palace officials took the opportunity to carry her back to Yanxi Palace.
And Ling Ruo, for the first time, truly saw Yinzhen's cold heart and ruthlessness. What happened outside the palace in the past was a misunderstanding, but this time she saw it with her own eyes, and it could no longer be explained by the word misunderstanding.
If he had to make a choice between the Qing Dynasty and himself, would Yinzhen give up himself without hesitation?
This question appeared in Ling Ruo's mind more than once and couldn't get rid of it!
She knew that as an emperor, what Yinzhen did was not wrong, but she still had an unacceptable feeling. Is it because she regarded Yinzhen as her husband more than the emperor? That's why she was so disappointed.
and sad.
Anyway, now, everything has settled...
On the next day, Yinzhen ordered Sixi to read out the imperial edict in public, canonizing Hanyan as Princess Jingyue Gulun, and marrying Jungar. After listening to the imperial edict, Jungar's envoy made a request, hoping to meet Jingyue in person.
Princess, so that he can report his orders to King Khan when he returns.
This request may not seem excessive, but what kind of status is the Qing princess? How can she be allowed to meet others at will? Yinzhen was about to refuse, but suddenly figured out the true intention of the envoy. She clearly wanted to see with her own eyes whether Hanyan was the real one.
The princess, after all, the eldest daughter entered the palace temporarily, but the princess grew up in the palace since she was a child. They can tell the clues at first sight. Once they find out that it is not the case, they can stir up trouble on the grounds of betrayal.
After thinking about this matter, Yinzhen agreed to the envoy's request and allowed him to enter the palace to meet him.
After the morning court, Sixi led the envoy to Yanxi Palace. Along the way, Sixi couldn't help but take the opportunity to look at Jungar's envoy. He had always heard that the people there were fierce, the men were all fierce, and even women often fought on horseback.
There is no trace of weakness, but this messenger looks handsome and elegant, more like a scholar.
"Father-in-law, are you looking at me?" The messenger suddenly said this, which made Sixi feel embarrassed. She laughed twice and said: "Our family is rude and made the messenger laugh. But having said that, the messenger speaks Chinese very well.
, if you hadn’t said so yourself, our family would have just regarded you as a Han Chinese.”
"You're welcome, father-in-law. I just learned a few words." The messenger's humility made Sixi have a good impression of him. Alas, if the Khan of Junggar, Galdan, was like him, it would be easier for the princess to marry him.
Many. It’s a pity,
Most of the rumors about Galdan say that he is violent, vicious, warlike, and even killed his father to seize the throne. He is also a very womanizer. He only succeeded to the throne for a year or two and has countless women around him. Marrying such a person, the princess
My life is ruined.
Thinking of this, Si couldn't help but shook his head with joy, looking at the messenger very strangely, "Father, what are you shaking your head at, but what did I do wrong?"
