Concubine's true colors

Chapter 205 Qing Ge Reflects
Emperor Ming's sudden joy and laughter made Xiao Jinxuan, who was kneeling on the ground, stunned.

Before she could react, what happened, Emperor Ming had already stood up from his chair and walked towards her.

When he got close to Xiao Jinxuan, the majesty of Emperor Ming just now had disappeared, and he stretched out his hand to hold her arm, and while helping her to stand up himself, he said lovingly:
"Jinxuan, get up quickly, I am the king of a country, but I am also the royal father of Xian Yu, and I deliberately spoke too harshly just now to see if your affection for Yu'er can stand the test. And I am very pleased with your performance."

Under the awe of a [-]-year-old dragon with self-esteem, he can remain calm and stick to the relationship in his heart. Emperor Ming believes that there are very few people who can do this.

Especially women who have this kind of courage and tenacity are even rarer.

In his life, Emperor Ming thought about it, and he only saw two women who were fearless in order to stick to the love in his heart.

One of them is his beloved concubine Rou, and the other is Xiao Jinxuan in front of him.

And what made Emperor Ming most happy, but also a little sad, was that looking at Xiao Jinxuan, as well as the other party's temperament, words and deeds, he actually found a trace of Huangfu Yingyue in the other party's body.

It's the same unhesitating attitude, the same unyielding attitude, even the belief that one would sacrifice one's life to protect each other for the sake of feelings, all of which are exactly the same.

Emperor Ming, who had already lifted Xiao Jinxuan up, had slightly moist eyes at this moment, because he felt that the appearance of Xiao Jinxuan might be the passing away Concubine Rou, who had secretly found a favorite woman for Zhou Xianyu himself.

Otherwise, he really couldn't explain why the other party was so similar to Huangfu Yingyue.

The more he felt that Xiao Jinxuan was the daughter-in-law chosen by Concubine Rou, the more satisfied Emperor Ming was with her. Immediately, he pointed to the chair next to him and said without airs:

"You are injured, and you were told to kneel for a long time just now, please sit down quickly, I will call you Jinxuan from now on, anyway, when you and Yu'er get married, I will be your royal father, and we will have a good relationship with each other." Don't stick to those empty etiquettes, that child Xianyu has always been used to being casual in front of me, so you don't have to be cautious in the future, I'm not as fierce as you think."

Xiao Jinxuan, who was being supported and forced to sit down, was still a little dazed.

A moment ago Emperor Ming was furious with thunder, but in an instant he became so easy-going. No wonder people say that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. The emperor's thoughts are really hard to fathom.

Just when Xiao Jinxuan was thinking wildly, Emperor Ming had already sat down beside her, and said with a deep smile:
"Jinxuan, Gu Yizhou entered the palace in person yesterday, pleaded guilty to me, forced Gu Qingge to marry me, and secretly told me about your distress. I, Gu Aiqing, is upright and loyal, although he has lax discipline. It was his fault, but it wasn't his fault, so I decided to punish Gu Qingge alone, and it didn't hurt the entire Gu family, I don't know if Yu'er and you are satisfied with the result."

There is a saying called Aiwujiwu, the attitude of Emperor Ming towards Xiao Jinxuan now, because of Zhou Xianyu's relationship, has a bit of this meaning.

After all, he was the king of a country, so he didn't need to ask Xiao Jinxuan for whoever he wanted to punish.

But who made him pay too much attention to Zhou Xianyu? In addition, Emperor Ming now believes that Xiao Jinxuan is the concubine Rou's soul in the sky, who personally found a spouse for their beloved son. Therefore, he still attaches great importance to Xiao Jinxuan's opinion. of.

And let's talk about Xiao Jinxuan, her temperament was extremely stable, although she was a little uncomfortable because of Emperor Ming's sudden easy-going care, but she was not too flustered, so after only a few breaths, her expression was already normal.

"Your Majesty is wise, Gu's whole family will not be affected by the fault of Gu Qingge alone. Jinxuan is sincerely convinced and agrees with this. However, if the Holy Majesty must ask the opinions of the courtiers, what Jinxuan wants to say is that in fact, even Gu Qingge It's also best to let the past go and not punish her."

Hearing this, Emperor Ming chuckled lightly, couldn't help but glanced at Xiao Jinxuan, and secretly sighed in his heart that she was still a little girl who was almost killed by someone, and now she couldn't bear to punish her, although such kindness is a beautiful thing However, this kind of innocence is the most undesirable thing in the royal family who are intriguing.

Emperor Ming, who had already regarded Xiao Jinxuan as Zhou Xianyu's future princess, immediately ordered:
"Jinxuan, there's nothing wrong with your kind heart, but if you treat someone who is evil to you, and you only know how to tolerate it blindly, even if you have the opportunity to suppress the other party, but you are still reluctant to make a move, then believe me. Zhen, once you give the other party a chance to breathe, they may not be so merciful to you, and may even take your life instead."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan looked at Emperor Ming differently, never expecting that the other party would be so blunt and teach her strategies and tricks, but it was obvious that what she said seemed to make this Emperor Ming think twice.

Immediately, Xiao Jinxuan smiled gently, and then said in a condensed voice:

"Jinxuan has memorized what your majesty said, but I don't want to punish Lu Qingge, not because of sympathy, and if it is possible, because of her assassination of me, Jinxuan is actually the person who most wants to put her to death. "

Ignoring Emperor Ming's surprised gaze, Xiao Jinxuan paused for a moment, then continued:
"If you want to punish Lu Qingge, you must announce in public that she assassinated and accidentally injured the king. Once the crime of killing the royal family is convicted, waiting for Gu Qingge, there is only one way to die, but her life and death are up to me." I don't care, but if her death will implicate Zhou Xianyu, then Jinxuan can't ignore it."

Emperor Ming has been on the throne for a long time, and his mind and strategy are also extremely extraordinary. When he heard Xiao Jinxuan say this, he just thought about it for a while, and then he couldn't help frowning and said:

"Jinxuan, are you worried that once Gu Qingge is executed and then you get engaged to Yu'er, some people will think that the real cause of Miss Gu's death was not because she harmed the royal family, but because the gift of a marriage hindered the appearance of the royal family. Yu, it was only then that a reason was found, and he was persecuted to death unjustly."

Xiao Jinxuan nodded, and said with a hint of coldness in her voice:

"That's right, His Royal Highness has already been favored by you, Your Majesty. Among the princes, this must be envied by others. In addition, His Highness is holding a heavy army in his hands. It must be a thorn in some people's eyes and a thorn in their flesh. Once Gu Qingge If she is dead, even if she is really heinous, someone will still find her out and make a big fuss about it. At that time, Yu Wang's reputation will be affected, and this is the last thing I want to see."

Looking at Xiao Jinxuan who was concentrating on talking in front of him, Emperor Ming suddenly felt a bit of a headache. Just now, why did he treat this little girl as a soft-hearted girl.

Seeing how the other party is scheming and scheming now, he looks like a cunning fox, Emperor Ming smiled self-deprecatingly, and felt that he really misjudged this time.

"Jinxuan, what you are thinking about is not unreasonable. It seems that this Lu Qingge really can't touch her, but since you, the victim, have no objections, Gu Aiqing is old, and there are only one son and one daughter around. Yu'er's reputation, then I don't care too much, but you and Yu'er don't worry about the marriage, I will make the decision for you."

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan felt relieved, if Emperor Ming was willing to help, then she and Zhou Xianyu would not have to bother about giving the marriage.

Immediately she got up quickly, and bowed to Emperor Ming again, thanking him for his fulfillment and understanding, and then Emperor Ming talked to her again, because there were still a lot of things to deal with in the palace, and he didn't stay for a long time right away.

After instructing Xiao Jinxuan to take good care of her wounds and take care of Zhou Xianyu, Emperor Ming left Yuwangfu with great joy and went back to the palace.

But this time when he returned to the palace, Emperor Ming didn't ask Deng Chang to follow him, instead he asked Deng Chang to go to Gu's mansion first, and told him to tell Gu Yizhou that the matter of the assassination would not be pursued, but the matter of giving the marriage would be considered as a matter of forgone, and when the time comes later , the news will be officially announced.

For Gu Yizhou, an upright old minister, Emperor Ming still loved him very much, so as soon as he left the Yuwang Mansion, he asked Deng Chang to inform him, so that the Gu family would stop being worried and anxious.

Besides, Deng Chang, after receiving the oral meeting, naturally rushed to Gu's mansion immediately, and in public with Gu Yizhou's family of four, personally conveyed the meaning of Emperor Ming.

But at the end of the story, Deng Chang still looked at Lu Qingge with an unhappy look, and said in a warning tone:
"Gu Shangshu, you are the minister of the humerus of the Holy Majesty. Although the affairs of the court must be done with due diligence, you must also take the time to teach the children in the family. There have been several accidents like this, so Miss Gu should not go out casually recently, especially in front of His Royal Highness and Miss Jinxuan, it is better not to show up if you can."

Who is Deng Chang?

Therefore, even in the Gu residence here, Gu Qingge is the daughter of Lord Shangshu, but Deng Chang can still say what he said in front of the other party, and he is quite rude.

Immediately looking at Lu Qingge's face, it flushed instantly, gritted his teeth and stood there silently, he could only pretend that he didn't hear, and endured all the humiliation.

When Deng Chang finished passing on the words, he immediately took his leave and left. It was only then that Mrs. Gu stepped forward and supported Lu Qingge lovingly, her face was full of worry.

"Ge'er, are you okay? Don't take what Mr. Deng said to you. It's good that the marriage is broken now, and the Holy Majesty didn't pursue your hurtful matter. This is a blessing among misfortunes."

And Gu Yizhou, who personally sent Deng Chang away, also came back this time. After sighing helplessly, he said with a sad voice:
"There is no way to teach a daughter. Fortunately, the Holy One loves you. My Gu family must be grateful to Dade. Qing Ge, you must also remember the lesson of this time. If you do something reckless, you will not be tolerated by the time, let alone a father."

Hearing these words, Gu Qingge immediately shed tears, and knelt down in front of Gu Yizhou with an extremely pitiful expression.

"Father is right. My daughter was really confused before. Now that Qing Ge has realized her mistake, she will not dare to do it again in the future. It will cause her parents to worry about her daughter. Qing Ge is really unfilial."

Then Lu Qingge cried and cried, his voice paused, and he looked at the person who was standing aside, looking at her lovingly, his own brother, Gu Qingping, kowtowed to him, and said with regret:
"In the past, my elder brother tried to dissuade my younger sister many times. It was Qingge's demonic disease, but I didn't listen to it. Now that Geer has regretted it, I ask my elder brother to promise me one thing and give my younger sister a chance to repent. Song can't afford to kneel."

Hearing this, he looked at his own sister and knelt at his feet like this. Immediately, Gu Qingping felt very uncomfortable, and without thinking about it, he hurriedly agreed:
"Sister, tell me, no matter what happens, I will help you."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingge hurriedly said gratefully:
"Brother, sister knows that a big mistake has been made, so she wants to pour tea and apologize to Jinxuan face to face, but she is afraid that she won't want to see me again, so she wants to trouble brother, make an appointment for me, and give Qingge a confession Chance."
