When Prince Ji returned to the palace, a maid came to invite him: "The heat has been getting more and more severe recently. The princess ordered the kitchen to cook sour plum soup and asked it to be chilled. She said that when the prince returns to the palace, she would ask you to come over and use it."

Although Prince Ji knew that the situation was over, he still had some hope before this trip. Unexpectedly, he returned from Su Zhan without success. He couldn't help but feel a little more angry. When someone reported back, he said that Su Zhan went straight after entering the city. When he arrived at Wei Shizhong's house, the three points of anger suddenly intensified into seven points.

When he heard that his wife had sent someone to invite him over, he was so angry that he almost showed his impatience on his face - when had this happened?

That bastard Murong Jing is going to put a knife on our necks, and when death is imminent, do you still have the time to engage in all this romance?

The words to vent his anger were about to come to his lips, and Prince Ji swallowed them alive.

He is not a master who can accept anger. He has been like this since he was a child.

If these words were really spoken, she would probably go crazy immediately, and then start an endless cycle of "Do you not like me anymore?" and "Are you willing to marry me because of my identity?"

He is annoyed and tired.

However, the situation is like this, what can he do?

I had no choice but to cheer up and go to the backyard to see my wife.

There were ice jars placed in the four corners of the room, and a maid was fanning beside them, so that the cool air could be evenly distributed in every corner of the room. Because of the hot weather, no incense was lit, and only the fashionable peaches and plums were placed. Smell it.

Mrs. Yu has a long face, slightly plump cheeks, and beautiful appearance. She wears a sky-green skirt and a mutton-fat jade bracelet on her wrist, which makes her skin as delicate as jade.

When she saw her husband coming back from his trip, she put down the book in her hand and greeted him with a smile: "Are you back?"

Prince Ji responded a little tiredly.

Mrs. Yu noticed that he was in a bad mood, waved her hand and sent the maids out, put her hand on his shoulder, and whispered: "Isn't it going well?"

Prince Ji placed his palm on the back of her hand and shook his head in frustration: "Gong Xing is not willing to talk to me."

Mrs. Yu's delicate eyebrows wrinkled: "Why is he so ignorant? You promised to help send the Su family away -"

Prince Ji could only smile bitterly.

Mrs. Yu couldn't see him like this. Seeing her husband's frown, she felt her heart twisting together. She looked at him worriedly for a moment and suddenly said: "Otherwise, I'd better tell him the truth. My father has a plan for him." In recent years, he has been in Fengzhou. How many civil servants have impeached him in the court? If not for the protection of his father, he would have died long ago. How could he not repay such a great kindness? "

When Prince Ji heard what she said, he felt a throbbing pain in his head, but he patiently explained in detail: "How can it be so simple? Even if I really ask you to meet him, tell him everything. , and he may not be on our side.”

Mrs. Yu looked at him in disbelief: "How could it be possible? We have the handwriting left by the father. This world belongs to the father. You are the successor chosen by the father. Why should he disobey orders?" ?”

Meeting such a teammate, Prince Ji really had a splitting headache, and he unknowingly increased his tone: "The Empress Dowager was still the empress of the late emperor, and she also had the power to rule the court, so what now? Murong Jing pretended to be stupid and deceived her at the beginning. My father has obtained the throne and has made a public appearance in front of the clan and courtiers. How difficult is it to pull him down now? But I don’t know if you and I will still be alive in a few days!"

"He dares!" Mrs. Yu stood up suddenly, her eyes blazing with anger: "I am the daughter of the late emperor, the eldest princess of the dynasty, and his adopted heir, how dare you kill me?!"

Prince Ji: "..."

Prince Ji didn't want to say anything anymore.

Due to the environment in which he grew up, the Yu family was raised to be arrogant and naive, but after all, they were not fools. No matter how high they thought they were, they could still sense their own setbacks one after another from the recent rumors.

Prince Ji remained silent, feeling sad. She stared at him intently, licked her lips a few times, and finally called out cautiously: "Husband."

Prince Ji looked up at her and said in a gentle tone, "What's wrong?"

Yu looked at him intently and said slowly: "Otherwise, forget it. Even if you really get that position, so what? I don't think my father may be very happy in this life. We are like this now, not

Is it good too?"

Prince Ji was almost amused by her innocent words.

very good?

What's so good about it?

In this dynasty, the more senior and virtuous ones serve in Zongzheng Temple, while the rest are detained in Chang'an and raised as pigs. Do you want to go to the dynasty to work? What a dream!

That is to say, it sounds nice to talk about his status, but when it comes to his future, how can he compare to his past?

The eldest son of the Haoying family, the nephew of the Empress Dowager, his father was the prime minister of the dynasty, and his mother was also a noble girl - why should he work so hard to become the heir apparent of an idle clan if it wasn't for that position?!

He abandoned everything he had originally, severed the relationship between his parents, the Queen Mother worked hard for the whole family, and the nine members of the Feng family put their heads on the line, just to be a shitty prince in Prince Ji's Mansion?!

How could he be willing to do this?!

Furthermore, Prince Ji sneered - at this point, Tu Qiong Ding saw that even if he wanted to live peacefully as a member of the clan, the emperor would definitely not tolerate him, right?

I'm afraid that at this moment, the men in black will touch the door of Prince Ji's Mansion!

He told his wife directly: "It's impossible. Now, Murong Jing and I are in a fight to the death. Either he dies or I die! Make your own choice!"

After saying that, he didn't look at his wife's expression for the first time and walked away.

Mrs. Yu looked at his back and stood up worriedly: "Husband..."

Prince Ji left, and Mrs. Yu was devastated. Aunt Wei, who had served her since she was a child, came in quietly from the outside. Seeing how she described it, she guessed that there was a disagreement between the couple.

She sighed secretly, picked up the round fan, and went to fan Yu. "What's going on? You two used to be very close, so why are you quarreling?"

Mrs. Yu's eyes were sore and she burst into tears. She told the whole story in grievance.

Aunt Wei felt a little pity, but more helpless: "Even now, has the princess still not changed her original intention?"

Mrs. Yu looked over with tears in her eyes: "What?"

Aunt Wei whispered: "Princess, you still insist on your original plan. Are you trying to find a way to win over the emperor and ask the prince-in-law to take over the Taiji Palace as the clan's son?"

Yu's tears became even more fierce: "Mommy, do you think I'm too greedy? But that is my father's world. I am his only surviving daughter. This world is passed down to my husband."

Son-in-law, shouldn’t you?”

Mother Wei thought to herself that if this was really the case, why didn’t the late emperor pass it on directly to his consort instead of having to go through such a big circle?

But he couldn't say this, so he only comforted: "This moment is the same, princess. The prince-in-law is right. In the current situation, he and the present have a life-or-death relationship. What do you think?

"

Mrs. Yu said: "Why do you need to ask? I am naturally on your husband's side."

Aunt Wei apologized and said, "Even if you go to hell with your consort, don't you regret it?"

Mrs. Yu showed displeasure and said with consternation: "Mother Wei, what do you mean? Does Murong Jing really dare to kill me?!"

Aunt Wei asked her back: "Guess, before the Queen Mother became a monk, did she ever think that this day would come to her?"

The color on Yu's face faded a bit, and her lips moved, but she didn't say anything.

When Nanny Wei saw this, she knew that she was just being strong, but she was not afraid in her heart. She sighed secretly, put down the fan, knelt down and said: "I know that you and your consort are deeply in love, but they are just separated from each other. These words

The old slave told you to listen, but you must never let the consort know about it."

Mrs. Yu looked at her at a loss: "Mommy..."

Aunt Wei knelt in front of her and whispered: "Before the late emperor passed away, he sent a message to the servants, saying that he only had you as your flesh and blood in the world, but you were born more innocently, and what he planned in his heart was so earth-shattering.

It was such a big deal that even when he went underground, he couldn't sleep peacefully. Just in case, the late emperor quietly left two secret edicts, but he didn't tell the princess and only asked the slaves to keep them."

"The first secret edict is about the identity of the consort and the Feng family's plans. The late emperor said that if the consort succeeds and he ascends the throne, if he does anything unlucky, the princess must not tolerate it for a while and wait for him to change his mind."

The sigh in Aunt Wei's words became more and more profound, as if she had returned to the sunset before the death of the late emperor.

At that time, the late emperor was leaning on the cave and said to her feebly: "Once a man changes his mind, he will never change his mind. He will definitely kill me and kill me. If my son has any heirs, I'm afraid

We will not be spared. If that time comes, ask the internal guards to send this secret edict to Wei Shizhong's house, and my son and his heirs will be safe."

Thinking of her father's love for her during his lifetime, Mrs. Yu was still worried about her even before his death. She couldn't help but shed tears on her clothes. However, she said firmly: "My father is worrying in vain. This secret decree will not be used. My consort is not such a person!"

"

When Grandma Wei saw this, she was helpless: "The second secret decree is that big things have not been accomplished, just like this."

When Mrs. Yu heard this, she felt that she had a savior. She wiped away the tears on her face with a handkerchief and said impatiently: "What did your father say? Is there any way to save him?"

Aunt Wei looked at her intently and said slowly: "The late emperor said that if things don't work out, please bring the second secret order to Princess Wei to go to Wei Shizhong's house to expose the plot between the consort and the Feng family and make a painful confession.

You can’t become a princess again, but you can still be rich and noble for the rest of your life.”

Mrs. Yu suddenly changed her expression and said immediately: "Husband and wife are one, so I naturally want to share the honor and disgrace with my husband. How can I abandon him? This is absolutely out of the question!"

When Nanny Wei saw this, the fire of hope in her heart was instantly extinguished.

Somehow, she had even sensed the inevitable tragic fate of Princess Chongqing.

She stopped trying to persuade her: "The late emperor has left his last words. Do you want to hear it, princess?"

Yu said with tears in her eyes: "Of course I will listen to your father's words."

Mother Wei looked solemn and said word by word: "The late emperor said that I want you to swear to heaven that you will not inform the prince-in-law of the existence of these two secret decrees. Otherwise, his soul will be uneasy under Jiuquan and he will not be reincarnated!"

Yu's expression was suddenly shocked, and she couldn't accept it: "Father, why are you so suspicious of the prince-in-law here..."

Aunt Wei hated the fact that iron cannot become steel, so she interrupted her almost harshly: "Is the princess really going to make her father, who has loved her for more than ten years, suffer under the Nine Springs for the sake of an outsider?!"

Ms. Yu moved her lips apologetically, and then she straightened her expression and swore to heaven that she would never tell her husband about this.

After this incident, Nanny Wei was already a little tired, almost exhausted, and looked at the princess she had seen since she was a child, and sighed quietly.

…

On the other side, someone quietly went to the study to return to Prince Ji: "After the prince left, Aunt Wei went in and talked to the prince's wife for a long time. Because there were people guarding outside, our people could not get close, but I didn't know it later.

Wherever they talked, they became excited and their voices became slightly louder. They listened vaguely, as if they were related to the late emperor..."

Prince Ji's movement of tapping the table with his knuckles suddenly stopped.

He said quietly: "That old guy really left a backup plan for his own flesh and blood."

After returning to the room that night, I could not help but be more gentle towards Mrs. Yu, with an apologetic tone: "I have been upset and impatient these past few days, and I really can't help you..."

Mrs. Yu was feeling guilty for concealing two secret orders from her husband, so naturally she would not get entangled too much. Lang was interested in concubine, and soon the couple hugged each other, and they became a pair of lovers with deep love.

Wei family.
