"Xiyao, what's going on, why are you crying on your own?" Yun immediately sat over in panic, stretched out his arms and hugged her and said.
Xiyao subconsciously wanted to push Yun's hand away, but when it moved, she continued to cover her face. She cried like this for a while, and her rationality was able to suppress her anger, and then she cried and said: "The person who has always been regarded as a junior suddenly became
Yours, yours, how can I accept it? Not just me, how can you let Min'er, Wen Yuan, Wen Qi accept it?"
"I also know that this is hard to accept, but," Yun Ben wanted to say, 'Since things have happened, they can't be changed, so they can only accept it.' However, he felt that he was too inhumane to say this, so he did not continue.
He went down and just hugged Xiyao silently.
"Guan Jia, Siqi, please go out and leave me alone for a while." Xiyao said again.
"I'm worried about you looking like this. Do you want Min'er to come in and accompany you?" Yun said.
"No. Don't ask any servants to come in." Xiyao continued to cover her face with her hands and said while crying.
"Okay." Yun agreed hesitantly, letting Si Qi go out first, then slowly walking backwards, walked to the door and glanced at Xiyao again, walked out of the house and closed the door.
…
…
"What did you say! Say what you just said again." Min'er held a little palace maid with one hand and said with a distorted face.
"Your Highness, this slave didn't say anything." The little palace maid looked at Min'er who was on the verge of going berserk, felt the strength of the hand holding her, and was so frightened that she almost cried.
"Repeat what you just said to that servant." Min'er said again.
"Your Highness, my servant just said that the official family wants to take Princess Guangling as a concubine." The little palace maid cried.
"Where did you hear about this?"
"Yes, yes, I heard it from the servants who served Princess Guangling. They said that Princess Guangling liked Guan Jia and expressed her feelings to Guan Jia on the second day of February. Guan Jia
I agreed. They also said that the reason why the empress fell ill a few days ago and is still in bed is because she heard the officials tell her about it." The little palace maid continued to say tremblingly.
"You're talking nonsense! It's impossible!" Min'er shouted with red eyes.
"Your Highness, I am telling the truth and I would never deceive Your Highness. I really heard this from the servants who serve Guangling Princess. Even if this is untrue, they are just spreading rumors."
"You're talking nonsense, you're talking nonsense." Min'er muttered. She didn't know who she was talking to, and she unconsciously increased her strength in her hands.
"Your Highness, this servant really didn't spread any rumors." The little palace maid kept saying as her arms felt like they were about to break.
"You're talking nonsense, you're talking nonsense. I'll go find Sister Siqi and ask her face to face. Yes, I'll go find Sister Siqi." Min'er said this again, released the little girl's hand, and walked toward Siqi's bedroom.
Run away.
"Here, should we follow?" A palace maid named Mo'er who was serving Min'er asked another person.
"We are the ones who serve the lady personally, how can we not follow her?" said the palace maid named Yan'er.
"But, if the young lady wants to question Miss Guangling, how can we listen to what this little palace lady says? Moreover," after saying this, Mo'er came close to Yan'er and whispered: "What this little palace lady said is probably true.
I suddenly remembered that after my mother-in-law fell ill, our young lady went to visit her yesterday, and happened to meet Miss Guang Ling who was also going to visit her. However, Sister Dai Shi did not let Miss Guang Ling in, and Miss Guang Ling did not ask why, but just asked Dai Shi.
Sister expressed her greetings to the empress and left. If Miss Guangling wants to become a concubine of the official family, it will be explained."
"Even so, we can't wait here." Yan'er said, "We must at least wait in front of Miss Guangling's bedroom."
"Then let's wait in front of Miss Guangling's door." Mo'er thought she was right, so she agreed, and the two of them walked towards Siqi's bedroom together.
Siqi's dormitory was also in Kunning Palace, and they arrived within a few steps. As soon as they walked to the door, they heard heart-rending shouts coming from inside, and the voice sounded quite like the voice of their own lady. The two of them
People couldn't help but put down their steps, not even approaching the door, waiting for Min'er to come out from a distance.
"What do you mean, Sister Siqi, are you really going to marry my father?" Min'er said with a look of despair on her face.
"Of all the men I have ever seen in the world, only the official family has entered my heart. I will never marry him except him in this life." Siqi was a little embarrassed, but still said.
"But how can you marry my father!" Min'er shouted: "You are his junior and his niece. If you get married, isn't this, isn't this, incest!"
"My marriage to him is not incest. We are cousins, not uncle and niece. Min'er, do you remember the time we sat together and talked seven or eight years ago. The official said that there was a person who was a generation older than you, but
What do you not know about yourself? The person who is a generation older than you is me."
Siqi said: "My father's surname is Lan, Huilian. He is the younger brother of Lan Zhen, Duke of Liang, and the son of King Ji Ning. You all know this. But what you don't know is that Princess Kaiping is the eldest sister of King Jin Ning and is also Min'er.
Your grandmother is the mother of Empress Kang (the title given to Yun's mother). So although my father is young, he is the same generation as Emperor Xingzong Kang and one generation older than the officials, and I am the same generation as the officials. In fact, I should call him
Cousin, it’s just that I grew up in the palace, so for convenience, I call you official uncle.”
"This," Min'er had never thought that Si Qi was the same generation as her father. This was far beyond her imagination, and she didn't know how to answer the question.
However, she didn't know how to answer the call or not. The anger in Min'er's heart surged up again, and she shouted loudly: "Even so, my parents have raised you as a niece since you were a child, and they treat you as one of their elders."
Qing, if you marry my father like this, even if it is not incest according to etiquette and law, from your heart, isn't it close to incest?"
"And have you ever thought about whether Uncle Lan will accept it or whether the ministers will accept it? You have been raised in the palace since you were a child, and your treatment is the same as that of a princess in the clan, and many people have rumored that you will be betrothed to Wenyuan. But suddenly you
If you want to marry my father, what kind of rumors do you think will spread outside the palace? Can Uncle Lan accept it? How many ministers will advise on this?" Min'er sneered: "Maybe they will think you are next.
Concubine Yang."
"You! How can you say such a thing!" Siqi also shouted. This sentence is too vicious. Yang Guifei was originally the concubine of Li Hao, the son of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. She was seen by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty Li Longji, and she first became a nun.
, more than a year later, she entered the palace and became the concubine of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. And when the Anshi Rebellion broke out, the civil and military ministers thought it was Concubine Yang's fault. When they retreated from Chang'an via Mawei, they forced Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty to agree to grant Concubine Yang to commit suicide. Concubine Yang also
He became a representative figure of "female sex harming the country".
She has nothing to do with Wenyuan and is completely innocent, but because of the previous rumors, will the ministers believe it completely? Can they not remonstrate for this? She can imagine how much trouble it will cause in the court.
One can even imagine that many years later there will be a drama starring her, Yun and Wenyuan, and her bad reputation will be passed down to future generations.
"Moreover, my mother has raised you for seventeen years, and you are repaying her like this?" Min'er said again: "My mother really doesn't care about you, and I can feel it. But what I have, have you ever lacked it?
Has mother ever treated you poorly?"
"But how did you repay her? You hooked up with my father right under her nose! Are you still a human being!"
Siqi's face became extremely pale. She endured Min'er's scolding without refuting, and she didn't refute until Min'er stopped and said: "Min'er, what you said is right. I am indeed not a human being, and I am not sorry for your empress. But I
I like the official family, and I am willing to bear everything for it. If you are willing, come over and scold me every day in the future, and I will listen and never refute, but I will never give up the official family."
Hearing what Siqi said, Min'er became even more angry. Just as he was about to scold her again, he suddenly saw Siqi vomiting a mouthful of blood and falling on her back. She hadn't had a good rest in several days and didn't eat much.
When Miner said this again, I couldn't bear it for a moment.
"Sister Siqi, how are you!" Min'er was shocked and subconsciously stepped forward to hug her and shouted.
"I'm fine." Siqi forced a smile and said, "I'm very happy to hear you call me sister Siqi."
"You!" Min'er couldn't say what she originally wanted to say. She was indeed angry that Siqi wanted to marry her father, but she never thought of forcing Siqi to death. After all, she and Siqi grew up together and had a deep relationship.
.
Min'er hugged Siqi and carried her to the bed. She took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corners of her mouth, and then ordered her servants to call the imperial doctor. She sat on the bed like this for a while, watching the nervous people gradually surrounded by her servants.
Siqi, who was taking care of her, suddenly said: "Sister Siqi, I will call you Sister Siqi for the last time. From now on, we will never see each other again. I will treat you as a stranger." After saying that, he walked out of the dormitory.
"Min'er." Siqi called out and wanted to get up from the bed to stop her, but immediately started coughing.
"Miss." Outside the palace, Mo'er and Yan'er saw Min'er walking out of the palace. They stepped forward and bowed, and asked cautiously: "Miss, do you want to go back to the dormitory now?"
"No, go to Qianqing Palace." Min'er said angrily: "One slap can't make a difference. If my father could refuse, how could Sister Siqi become like this! I want to tell my father face to face!"
"Miss, you must not!" Mo'er was shocked: "There is no reason for a daughter to say such a thing to her father!"
"There is no reason for my father to do such a thing!" Min'er shouted: "I must break up with him!" With that, he stepped out of Kunning Palace.
"Miss!" Mo'er and Yan'er immediately knelt in front of her, kowtowing and pleading: "Miss, you must not do such a thing. Even if the officials usually dote on the young lady, how can they be happy if the young lady does such a thing?
?Maybe, I will throw away all the love and affection the officials have for you."
"So what!" Min'er said: "If he does such a thing, no one can talk about it anymore!"
"Miss, others can say it, but you can't."
"I don't care!" Min'er tried to bypass the two of them again.
Mo'er and Yan'er immediately blocked in front of her again, pleading non-stop. Seeing that they were determined not to let go, Min'er suddenly reached out and pushed towards them. Min'er had been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and her hands were very strong, so she immediately pushed the two of them away.
A palace maid pushed him away and fell to the ground. Min'er immediately ran out of Kunning Palace.
"Mo'er, go and tell the queen about this right away. I'll go after the lady." Yan'er said, struggled to stand up and ran out of the palace. Mo'er hesitated, stood up and walked towards Xiyi's bedroom. go.
After leaving Kunning Palace, Min'er was afraid that someone would stop her. She ran all the way to the gate of Qianqing Palace. She held her hands on the wall and took a few breaths. She grabbed a young eunuch and asked, "Where is your father?"
"The officials will comment on the memorial in the front hall."
"You, help me go to the front hall." Min'er ordered.
"Your Highness, there are still ministers in the front hall. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to go. If your servants send a message, the officials will receive your Highness in the back hall," the young eunuch said.
"Why are there so many nonsense! Help me to the front hall quickly!" Min'er said sternly. Seeing that the young eunuch was still hesitant, he shouted: "If you don't obey my orders, I will ask the queen to have you beaten." Beat to death!"
"Young one, please help His Highness over." The young eunuch was so frightened that he hurriedly agreed. Min'er was the most favored princess and the Queen's beloved daughter. She went to tell the Queen to get rid of such a little boy like herself. It was not difficult for the eunuch at all. He had to agree for the sake of his own life.
The young eunuch supported Min'er and walked towards the front hall of Qianqing Palace.

"What do those scholars from Fu think after visiting the Five Cities Academy?" Yun asked Yang Shiqi.
"Your Majesty, they are very surprised that Ming Dynasty was able to establish such a school. Not only because Your Majesty attaches so much importance to this school, but also because of the content taught in the school. They are amazed that you actually teach students about science, philosophy, Military, literature, art and other aspects of things, and some of them are very profound. They all said that this school is not even comparable to Fu's university, but it is just a middle school. They want to know, what university What does it look like?" Yang Shiqi replied.
"Haha." Yun laughed a few times and said, "They will see Ming Dynasty's university in the future."
"Yang Qing, after they have seen the Five Cities Academy, if they want to visit Gezhi Prison, that is up to them, but please note that some research cannot be known to them, which are..."
Just as Yung was about to continue speaking, he suddenly heard Min'er's angry voice coming from the door: "Father!"
