concubines

Chapter 265
When it was dark, Meng Runlin also entered the palace.

Everything is ready, moon cakes, glutinous rice balls and dishes from the Imperial Dining Room are all set up on a large table.

When Meng Run entered the clinic, he was held back as if he wanted to salute. There is not so much etiquette for a family reunion.Miao Li asked casually, "Why are you here so late?"

"Students are late after school today, so they came later." Meng Runlin also looked around the room and asked, "Did the emperor not come?"

There seems to be no palace banquet in the palace today, and the queen is dead, so the emperor should come here for the festival.

Miao Liti didn't want to mention that person, so she didn't answer for a while, and Qingxi took the lead, "Is that uncle? I gave him a piece of yellow cake and he left. His smile was uglier than crying." .”

Qingxi felt that she had learned a new word, and couldn't help but want to show off.

No matter how lively the affairs inside the palace were, it would not spread outside the palace, and Meng Runlin didn't want to cause trouble for Miaoli, so he didn't move around often.Anyway, their relationship will not change, and other things are not so important.

Hearing what Qingxi said, Meng Runlin's expression changed instantly, and he asked, "Sister, what happened? Have you been bullied, or have you been wronged?"

This is my own brother. Hearing that Zhou Shuxuan went out in a bad mood, what he thought was whether she had been wronged.

Miaoli glanced at Qingxi, smiled and said, "What does a child know? Don't listen to his nonsense."

"I knew it, I saw it for real."

Miao Li patted his head lightly again and said: "You still call moon cakes yellow cakes, what do you know?"

Qingxi took a bite of the mooncake and said angrily, "My aunt bullies people, so I don't want my aunt anymore."

Meng Runlin was unsuccessfully covered up by her, and she still held onto her and said, "Sister, the more you cover up, the more problems you will have. What happened? It's just us two sisters. What else can you tell me?" ?"

Miao Li put down her chopsticks and said with a straight face, "Why do you ask so many questions? Eat, leave the palace early after eating."

Meng Runlin also put down his chopsticks, waved his hand and said, "I can't eat this meal, and you didn't tell me when you were wronged. You treat me like a family."

Seeing that there was going to be a quarrel, Wu Yun persuaded, "Master, let's eat first, my sister has been preparing for this meal all day."

Li Youfu knew everything, but it was not easy for her to intervene because it was a family matter, so she gave Qingxi a spoonful of glutinous rice balls and sat silently on the side.

Meng Runlin didn't want to make trouble now, but she was really worried about her. "You are in this big cage. I finally came in once. But you didn't even tell me the truth. My father is gone, and I am the man in the family. If you are married and wronged, I should take the lead. If Father is still here, and he will definitely not watch with cold eyes."

Miao Li was about to burst into tears when he said that, if her father was still there, how could she be in this cage.It took a long time to bear it, "So what if I told you? Can you still go to him?"

This look was really wronged, Meng Runlin slapped the table and got up, and wanted to rush out to fight on the spot.

Miao Li quickly grabbed him, "Are you crazy? You don't think about yourself, you have to think about your wife and children."

Wu Yun also reached out and grabbed him. "Sir..."

Qingxi went over and hugged Meng Runlin's leg, "Daddy, let's eat, this yellow cake is very delicious."

The whole family was like this, Meng Runlin had to sit back.

I didn't have such a happy meal after eating a happy meal. I felt that everyone was forced to smile.

After dinner, Meng Runlin was going out of the palace, and Wu Yun would stay in the palace for a few more days with the child.

Sitting on the sedan chair leaving the palace, no one persuaded him now, Meng Runlin still couldn't think about it.Seeing Miaoli's appearance just now, he was angry, it's fine for the innocent to ruin the royal family, why can't they treat their daughter well?
Meng Runlin asked politely: "Eunuch, where does the emperor live?"

Xiao Zhuozi also smiled and replied: "Why do you ask such a question?"

"It's my first time entering the palace, and it's a festive season, so it's always bad not to pay homage to the emperor."

"But it's so late, the emperor should have already fallen asleep, why don't we go next time. Anyway, the favor of the empress is still long, uncle and master are not in a hurry at this time."

"Please, father-in-law, take me there. Even if I kneel outside and kowtow, it's my kindness."

It was also late at night, and he was not familiar with the place in the palace, otherwise he jumped off the sedan chair and ran away, so he wouldn't talk nonsense to him.

Xiao Zhuozi knew what he probably wanted to do, but Miao Li made it clear that he didn't want him to go, but he insisted on it, and was really caught in the middle.

Meng Runlin lied again and said: "The empress is afraid of my impulsiveness, so she specifically asked me to kowtow before leaving. This is all the will of the empress."

Now that there is such a sentence, Xiao Zhuozi has nothing to say, so he has to change the answer, "Then we can only try our luck in the past, and see if the emperor is asleep."

Xiao Zhuozi ordered the person who carried the sedan chair, changed direction, and went straight to the Palace of Qinzheng.

Everyone in the palace knew that the emperor had always been diligent in his administration, and he definitely hadn't slept at this time, so he should still be dealing with government affairs.When we arrived at Qinzheng Hall, the lights were still on inside.Xiao Zhuozi talked a few words with the eunuch guarding the door, and the eunuch at the door came out soon after he went out to report, saying that the emperor invited him in.

Meng Runlin got permission and walked away, entering the door aggressively.

Before reading the memorial in Zhou Shuxuan's hand, he suddenly felt a chill in the room. He put down the memorial and looked over. Seeing him, he asked with a polite smile, "Have you not gone back yet?"

Meng Runlin didn't say anything else, and asked directly: "Why does the emperor bully Sister Caomin?"

"Zhen..." She came to settle accounts, but Zhou Shuxuan couldn't think of a reason to justify himself, "I'm sorry for her."

"The emperor let her be wronged, just say I'm sorry? You are all the same, high above you, and never take people outside the royal family seriously."

Why did it go so far? These words are related to his virtue and whether he is a qualified emperor.Zhou Shuxuan had to ask: "When did the royal family stop taking you seriously?"

"Treat us seriously? Caomin's father and grandson have all, and the emperor has not waited for an apology from the royal family. The emperor still treats Caomin's sister like this. Does it mean that the emperor will have to wait until the snow falls in June before the emperor finds out?"

It's not that he didn't know about the previous things, it's that he didn't say anything after seeing Miaoli and Zhou Shuxuan together.Talking too much about the unjust case back then would only destroy their relationship, but now he doesn't take Miao Li seriously, so why hold back?

One matter was more troublesome than the other, Zhou Shuxuan didn't care about his attitude, turned his head slightly, and said patiently: "It's already late, I'll send you back."

"I can't think about it now. It's nothing more than seeing the emperor's promise." Meng Runlin also knew that things should not be too careless, and it is not a trivial matter to really provoke the emperor.

Now I have to endure it for the time being and walk away.

Zhou Shuxuan is not in the mood to read the scriptures anymore, and things about Miaoli can always easily distract him.

Maybe it's time to apologize.

This was Miaoli's wish from the beginning, in order for her family to be redressed, and to be able to straighten up and be a man.

It's just that the first emperor made his last words not to allow him to vindicate them.

But the first emperor also said that Miaoli was a demon girl, and she was not allowed to come to the harem, and now she is still doing well.As long as he wants to, there is nothing he can't do.Now he is the emperor, I don't know where the former emperor is.

It's not that he said these rebellious words, it's that the first emperor did something wrong, and there was nothing wrong with the family.The first emperor couldn't speak anymore, but he could.It is what he has to do to make up for his previous mistakes.

Zhou Shuxuan also had selfishness, thinking that if he rehabilitated Miao Li, would Miao Li treat him better?
He doesn't expect too much, as long as he is a little bit better, he will be satisfied, just a little bit.

In Qingquan Palace, Li Youfu didn't leave immediately after eating, and stayed to accompany Miaoli to mourn for a while.Taking advantage of the dark clouds to guard the two children to sleep, Miao Li said to Li Youfu: "My younger brother has a bit of a temper, which scared you."

Li Youfu shook her head directly when she thought about it, and said, "No, I think he's pretty good. When I'm being bullied, I want my older brothers and younger brothers to jump out to protect me, but I don't have one." Li Youfu said in a low voice , "Sister, I really envy you, your brother treats you really well."

She has been lonely since she was a child. Looking at Meng Runlin's appearance to Miao Li just now, her envious eyes are red. She has no parents and no other relatives.

Miaoli was in a better mood, she put her arms around her and said, "Don't be envious, if you are bullied in the future, my sister will come out to protect you."

Li Youfu has been lonely since she was a child, and she should miss her family even more at this time.Seeing her younger brother, she probably thought of her own brothers and sisters, just like she glanced at her in those years.It's such a bad feeling to have no family.

Li Youfu looked up in disbelief and asked, "Really?"

Miao Li half-jokingly said: "Really, you can kill and set fire."

Li Youfu wiped her tears and said, "I'm really touched, sister, you are the second person who said you want to protect me."

the second?
Miao Li asked strangely: "Who is the first one?"

Li Youfu sniffed her nose, then cried and replied, "Qingxi, that little scoundrel, but I don't think he is very reliable. My sister is more reliable."

Miao Li wiped her tears with a smile, each one was cuter than the other, Li Youfu didn't tell her for so long.It's not easy for people who are not relatives or relatives.
