Chapter 289 Giving up is a form of protection (2)
I knew you wanted to ask about this.Zi Ning understood it, and naturally she was not surprised that he asked this question, "It's the same as I told the emperor before, I don't know who poisoned Ye Li, if he can't find the female Gu, he can only suffer from it." It's a burden, not to mention that he still has re-toxins in his body, which are intertwined, so don't be careless."

Emperor Xuan Jing was inexplicably shocked, "What do you mean, apart from being poisoned by the Gu poison, did Li'er have other poisons?" This was too unexpected for him, and his voice trembled a little.

"So the emperor didn't know anything about it!" Zi Ning couldn't tell whether he should be thankful for him, or sad——his own son had been tortured for so long, yet he didn't know anything about it! "The poison in Yeli's body has been around for a long time. Every time it happens, it will be painful. Otherwise, how can it hurt others and yourself, and it will be said that it is a demon that eats human flesh." Although it was because Jun Yeli was bitten by the magic power As a result, but the situation is generally not bad, so it can be said that it is passable.

Emperor Xuan Jing was shocked and speechless, unable to react.

Zi Ning's eyes sharpened suddenly, "The emperor actually cares about Yeli very much, doesn't he? Knowing that he was poisoned, he would rather give up Princess Jiaoyue, and even if the two countries went to war, he would first use acacia fruit to save Yeli. In fact, the emperor never gave up. Ye Li, right?"

It's not like the rumors outside at all. Emperor Xuanjing disliked Jun Yeli as a monster who cannibalized human flesh, and his mother and concubine almost destroyed the Xichi Kingdom, so he no longer favored him and let him live and die. Emperor Xuan Jing knew it in his heart, right?

Emperor Xuan Jing seemed to be shocked, slowly raised his eyes to look at her, and said coldly, "How do you know that I have not given up on Li'er, with his current appearance, can he be a great leader?"

Zi Ning shook her head with a smile, "Don't speak dark words in front of wise people. The emperor knows that I am right, so why hide it. The palace is no different from the outside. Sometimes giving up is not a disguised form of protection. Even if the emperor does not admit it, my heart It is enough to understand."

Emperor Xuan Jing stared closely at her eyes, as if he wanted to see something bad from it, but after a long silence, he suddenly sighed, "Okay, I admit, you are right." His straight back also suddenly bent a little, and the helpless look between his brows and eyes made him look like an old man full of bitterness and helplessness, not an all-powerful king.

Zi Ning exhaled, "Thank you, Your Majesty." In fact, if Emperor Xuan Jing didn't admit it, she could only take these as conjectures. Under the uncertain circumstances, his unclear attitude was always a hidden danger to Jun Yeli .

"What is there to thank me for?" Emperor Xuan Jing glanced at her, "It's your ability to force me to tell the truth, and I don't need to remind you, you also know what to say and what not to say, Yeah?"

"Yes!" Zi Ning nodded solemnly, "I can tell the difference, so I won't say too much."

"I believe you!" Emperor Xuan Jing's expression softened, and he patted her on the shoulder like an elder, and sighed, "Actually, after so many years, I am also tired, and my heart is tired... Li'er is like my young At that time, he valued affection and intention, and he promised a thousand gold. Although because of affection, sometimes he would be worried and indecisive when doing things, but he never lacked people who were loyal to him and swore allegiance to him. I am very relieved."

"I understand!" Zi Ning nodded, "Yeli's heart is like this. Even if he suffers sometimes, he won't blame others. It's quite stupid."

"Since he was born, I have pinned all my hopes on him!" Emperor Xuan Jing seemed to recall the beautiful past with Concubine Hui and Jun Yeli, his eyes were a little hazy, as if he had entered a dream, "But I never thought that my doting on him would bring disasters on him!"

In fact, before anything happened to Concubine Hui, he had already realized that because he doted on Concubine Hui and Li'er too much, he had attracted dissatisfaction from other people, especially the prime minister's wife. Being favored, they definitely couldn't see Jun Yeli's being favored, but they didn't dare to move their minds easily.

Later, Concubine Hui had an accident, and Jun Yeli was suddenly lonely and helpless in the palace. Later, his temperament changed drastically and he became a monster. Although Emperor Xuan Jing didn't know how he became like that, he could guess that he must be Being harmed by others, one can imagine the anger in his heart at that time.

"So the emperor has expected it?" Zi Ning suddenly said, "Ye Li didn't tell the truth to the emperor, did he?"

"How could he?" Emperor Xuan Jing shook his head, "He has always hated me for not keeping Concubine Hui, and even when he fell ill later, he gritted his teeth and refused to ask me for help. There is no way to deal with him."

Later, he realized that without Concubine Hui's protection, Li'er would be even more dangerous, and the real cause of trouble for Li'er was his doting.Therefore, in order to better protect Li'er, he endured all the heartache, and pretended that Li'er had become a monster, alienated him, despised him, and made everyone think that he was giving up the eldest son of the emperor in order to protect his son. Safety.

Even though Li'er misunderstood him and thought he had really given up on him, he still carried everything on his back. Every time he faced Li'er's resentful gaze, although he looked cold on the outside, he felt pain and guilt in his heart, thinking of himself It is a great irony that the majestic king of a country can't even keep his most beloved son and concubine!
"Forgive me for speaking out, it's not the emperor's fault!" Zi Ning bowed her head slightly, with respect and admiration for him in her eyes, "The emperor must take the overall situation into consideration, and it is a great thing to make such a decision , Yeli was young and ignorant at that time, and could not understand the emperor's painstaking efforts, now that he has grown up, he will naturally understand everything, the emperor does not need to worry about it."

"I know, you are the mediator!" Emperor Xuanjing smiled a little, "If it weren't for you, Li'er would not have changed so much for me, although... it doesn't matter, one day, Li'er I'll understand later."

"Yes!" Zi Ning smiled lightly, "It's me who made things up, too many things, the emperor forgives me."

Emperor Xuan Jing raised his eyebrows, this action was surprisingly similar to Jun Yeli, "I can't forgive you, since you have already asked for Li'er, you have to ask for it to the end, his business is your business, you don't have to think about it .”

Zi Ning was slightly taken aback, her face was slightly red, and she was secretly amused: So the emperor can tell jokes?Rare and rare.

"Zi Ning!" Emperor Xuan Jing suddenly called out, "I know that you treat Li'er sincerely. I am very relieved to have you by his side. Take good care of him, he will never let you down, I beg you for the poison he has suffered." Already!" When he said this, he was not ordering as a king, but begging as a father, and Zi Ning could feel the difference in tone and attitude.

"Yes!" Zi Ning clasped her fists in both hands, "I understand, I will definitely cure Yeli, fight side by side with him, and never let him down, the emperor rest assured!"

"it is good……"
