Long live Emperor Wu!
Chapter 240 You have to believe him
She had just been released from prison, but her children, all grown up, were still in prison.
When Princess Xincheng came out, she saw her eldest sister standing next to the carriage like this, and the tears that had been held back instantly fell again.
She took two steps and walked up to her, crying and asking:
"Sister, are you okay? Did you also come to the palace to beg for mercy?"
Princess Changle's face was full of fatigue, but she shook her head very gently and said:
"His Majesty is a soft-hearted person. If he can forgive, he will forgive us without us asking. If he can't..."
As she spoke, her eyes became a little gray.
It's not like she didn't expect this situation today.
Li Shan has a consistent temper, doesn't like fighting, and is kind-hearted. As his uncle, Changsun Wuji, naturally knows this better than anyone else.
It is precisely because of this that Changsun Wuji is not very worried about the emperor's thoughts.
As long as he felt that something was right, he would force Li Shan to accept it.
But just because he has a good temper does not mean that he is willing to be manipulated by others, especially in the position of emperor. It is a taboo for ministers to overstep their authority, which is a major taboo for political instability. Her brother is not a fool, how can he tolerate it?
When she usually goes to the palace, she always deliberately speaks good words for Changsun Wuji in front of the emperor. When she is at home, she also advises Changsun Wuji not to treat the emperor like a child.
The two parties tried to persuade each other, fearing that one day, something would happen to King Wu.
Chang'an City was cleaned up with the Fang family as the axis. For a time, everyone in Chang'an City was proud of themselves, and the power and position of the Changsun family was unparalleled.
The conflict between Changsun Wuji and the emperor also reached its peak.
From that day on, she had been persuading Changsun Wuji to quit and go home as an official, but except for the power of the Fang family and the pride of King Wu, he would not listen to her.
The more Princess Changle thought about it, the more she felt tired and aggrieved, and murmured:
"...If he can't be spared, there's no point in begging him, it's all about his life."
When Princess Xincheng heard this, she covered her face and cried again. The nanny at the back and her two children also cried together.
At this time, Princess Chengyang's carriage also came over and stopped next to their carriage.
Before she even got out of the car, she saw her two sisters standing together crying. She quickly lowered the curtains of the car, held her maid's hand, and got out of the car.
When he arrived, he looked at them with sad eyes and said:
"...It seems like I've begged, but it's no use?"
Princess Xincheng nodded and cried:
"From the beginning to the end, my brother kept his back to me and didn't even dare to look at me."
When Princess Chengyang heard this, her eyes darkened and she said:
"I also said that Xiaojiu is different from my father. If I pray for you, I might be able to avoid harming my family. It seems... a person who becomes an emperor is different from ordinary people after all."
She looked at the majestic palace in the distance, sighed and said:
"Just take it as fate. Wealth and favors are the same. You have to give up. I am a person who has been through this. I will get over it if I endure it."
Her first consort died in the rebellion of Prince Li Chengqian. Now...
How could Princess Changle not know this? She became more and more sad, her eyes were red, and she said with a forced smile:
"I am getting older, and my son is about to get a wife. At this time, my family is ruined, and there is no need to endure it.
If my husband and children can survive by then, I will give up my title and land and live in exile with them, so that my family can be together.
If none of the men named Changsun survive, then I will go with him. "
After saying that, she turned around and slowly got into her carriage.
"Eldest sister..." Princess Xincheng was extremely shocked and shouted anxiously. But Princess Changle ignored her.
Princess Chengyang's eyes flashed, as if she was very anxious, and said:
"... Yudou, I still have to go to the palace. You should go back first."
……
……
The main hall of Zhaoqing Palace.
Wu Rou looked at Princess Chengyang who came and said:
"Your Majesty is tired. Please wait until the dust of Changsun Wuji's case is settled. See you later, princess."
Princess Chengyang looked at her straightly and said:
"All men are cruel. If I don't see him, I'm here to see you."
Wu Rou was surprised for a moment, her eyes became more alert, she turned halfway and sat next to the table:
"Me?... If the princess has something to say, sit down and talk."
She said and stretched out her hand to signal Princess Chengyang to sit down.
After Princess Chengyang sat down, she lowered her eyes and said:
"Just now, the eldest sister was outside the palace gate and said that she was old. If her husband and son could not survive, she would kill herself and follow them. I wonder what Wu Zhaoyi thought after hearing this?"
Wu Rou was indeed shocked. Princess Changle was not someone who would make harsh remarks or threaten anyone.
Besides, she didn't just run to her brother and say this.
Wu Rou believes she can do it.
"Princess Changle... is a person who values love and justice, A Rou admires her." Wu Rou said sincerely, her eyes flashing.
"You are also a woman, you are also a mother, and you can understand many things without saying much.
Xiao Jiu values you very much in his heart. Otherwise, how could he, who has always been such a good person, risk the disapproval of the world and take you into the palace as his concubine?
If you speak well, he will listen.
Ask Wu Zhaoyi, as a woman and a mother, to help them and intercede on behalf of Sister Changle and Sister Xincheng. "
Princess Chengyang spoke sincerely, keeping her eyes on Wu Rou.
Wu Rou's eyes were wandering on the tea cup at first, but in the end, she had no choice but to look straight back and said slowly:
"Princess, if you don't mind, I will also call you sister.
Sister... When it comes to putting yourself in other people's shoes, I'm afraid there is no better person in the world than Your Majesty. You are his sister, you should know best.
Could he not have thought of you? It is precisely because I thought about it and had to do this that I was in trouble, that I was always distracted and couldn't sleep all night long.
It is definitely not a small thing to make it difficult for him to be like this. It was obviously Changsun Wuji who was wrong, but he couldn't sleep at night despite cutting blood and flesh. Isn't it because you are his closest relatives? "
Wu Rou paused in Princess Chengyang's surprised eyes, and then said:
"Sister, I know your suffering, but at this time, you are all speaking for the Changsun family, and I have to stand by him.
He is my husband, and he is my child's Aye. I have to let him know that there are still people in this world who know his difficulties and his last resort. "
Princess Chengyang's lips moved and she had nothing to say.
Although Wu Rou didn't accuse them, every word revealed that they were selfish and didn't consider their brother Li Shan.
When you blame him for not caring about family ties, aren't you ruthless yourself?
After a while, Princess Chengyang stood up and left. Wu Rou walked her to the door. Princess Chengyang turned around, lowered her eyes and said:
"Xiaojiu is lucky to have you."
Wu Rou slightly raised the corners of her lips and said:
"Sister, you have to trust him, he can make the most appropriate decision."
