"Shu Wang is sick?" Bai Song frowned slightly and stood at the door of Li's house, losing his initial calmness.
The door of Li's Mansion opened, and a housekeeper came out. He looked at Bai Song with complicated eyes and made a gesture of invitation.
Bai Song's arrival caused a sensation in the Li Mansion. All the servants came to watch, whether they were servants or maids, they all stared at Bai Song.
No matter where Bai Song went, there were countless pairs of eyes staring behind him, accompanied by various comments.
Bai Song's mind was not around, and he followed the housekeeper to the inner courtyard of Li's mansion.
Halfway through, Bai Song couldn't help but ask: "Is Shu Wang sick?"
Judging from the butler's eyes, Bai Song knew that the other party knew him, and even if he didn't know him, he knew his identity.
The housekeeper looked back at Bai Song and smiled bitterly: "You'd better ask my lord."
Li Jing is no longer in the main hall, but in the study room in the inner courtyard.
The housekeeper brought Bai Song and left silently, leaving Bai Song behind.
Li Jing sat at his desk, facing the study door and Bai Song.
"What is the emperor's will?"
Bai Song took out the imperial edict and handed it over directly.
Li Jing didn't pretend to be pretentious, he took it casually, opened it and looked at it.
Looking at the imperial edict, Li Jing's brows gradually gathered and his breath became thicker. Obviously, this imperial edict made him very unhappy.
The content of the imperial edict was very simple. Before the results of the imperial examination came out, Li Jing could not marry Shu Wang to anyone else, nor could he prevent Bai Song from meeting Shu Wang. More importantly, he had to ensure that the child in Shu Wang's belly was born safely.
Bai Song suddenly asked: "Is Shu Wang sick?"
"What promise did you make that could make the emperor issue such a decree?"
"I will soon enter the East Palace and serve as a young master."
Hearing such a sentence, Li Jing suddenly realized and took a deep look at Bai Song: "His Majesty's public announcement that you will never serve as an official really has a deeper meaning. Your stage is not now, it turns out to be in the future."
"Is Shu Wang sick?" Bai Song continued to ask.
"You care about this problem?"
"Of course I care! If Mr. Li doesn't say anything, I will see Shu Wang now! The imperial edict is very clear, and even Mr. Li can't stop it."
Li Jing's expression was gloomy again, staring at Bai Song: "You hurt her, isn't it enough? If it weren't for you, Shu Wang would not have gotten this disease!"
"I know!" Bai Song said in a deep voice, but at this moment he had no patience and turned around to go out.
"If Shu Wang hadn't been told that she was sick, do you think she would still dare to go out and meet people in her current state?"
Bai Song stopped and looked back at Li Jing.
Li Jing sighed, put the imperial edict on the table, and softened his tone a lot: "You don't have to worry, Shu Wang is fine."
Bai Song thought for a while and then understood the reason.
The so-called caring leads to chaos, otherwise Bai Song would not be unable to think of such a simple thing.
Bai Song came to his senses and apologized: "How offensive..."
"You came here today just to show me an imperial edict?"
"I also want to meet Shu Wang. Of course, what's more important is that I, Bai Song, have officially proposed marriage to Mr. Li. I want to marry Shu Wang! I know this is against the rules, but Mr. Li probably doesn't want to cause trouble at this time.
All I want is a promise from Mr. Li."
"Propose marriage? Huh..." Li Jing sneered, "The emperor has already made the decision for you, what else can I, an old man, say?"
"You are Shu Wang's only relative. Both Shu Wang and I hope to get blessings from our elders, and there is nothing to stop them."
Li Jing fell into deep thought. He still didn't like this boy Bai Song, and even said he was a bit annoying.
But when things developed to this point, Li Jing found that he was also powerless.
Rather than obstructing it, it is better to go with the flow...
Li Jing rarely bowed his head in his life. Even when facing Emperor Taizu, he probably didn't feel as powerless as he did at this moment.
This is not just the emperor's will.
It is also related to Shu Wang's heart. The child who has been wild since childhood is actually willing to stay at home for half a year and not go out for a man.
That child's heart is no longer with him.
Li Jing must accept all this.
At the same time, no matter how much Li Jing hates this boy, this boy has helped him make great achievements over and over again. This is an indisputable fact and an arrangement of fate.
Li Jing felt guilty and didn't want to see Bai Song, but he still couldn't get rid of Bai Song.
And Bai Song gave favors and also had control over Li Jing.
Merely concealing the matter about the Shenwu Cannon was deceiving the emperor. If he had a falling out with Bai Song, he would tell the matter in front of the emperor and everyone would be destroyed.
This is a multiple-choice question with no choice.
After being silent for a while, Li Jing forced himself to smile and his tone became gentle: "My child, you are a person with unlimited potential. I will leave Shu Wang to you."
After saying these words against his will, Li Jing seemed to have aged ten years.
Bai Song was in high spirits and repeatedly raised his hands: "Thank you, Mr. Li, for your support! I...can I go see Shu Wang now?"
Li Jing smiled and waved his hand.
Bai Song rushed out of the study excitedly.
After Bai Song left, Li Jing took out a piece of prescription from the drawer in the study.
Spring has begun, and the remnants of Shu have not yet been wiped out. In less than ten days, he will rush to the front line again.
I am on the battlefield this time and I don’t know when I will be able to return.
Li Jing thought that when he came back next time, his granddaughter would have gone to another family and become another family's concubine...
It's ridiculous to think about it, the granddaughter of a dignified general was reduced to the concubine of a commoner!
This was the final decision. Li Jing didn't know whether to do it or not.
The incident of having a child out of wedlock happened in the general's mansion. It was a shame and a shame to spread the news. How could Li Jing have the face to face his ancestors?
He could agree to marry Shu Wang to that boy, but he couldn't accept that the Li family became the laughing stock of the world.
This was an abortion pill, and Li Jing felt that he had to make up his mind before leaving Beijing.
…
Bai Song asked everyone in the house all the way, and finally arrived at the courtyard where Shu Wang was confined.
I learned from the servants that Shuwang’s confinement was not someone else’s intention, it was her own request.
Except for the personal maid, Shu Wang could not see anyone.
No one knows what condition their young lady is in now, but everyone knows what the situation is.
It became more and more obvious that the young lady was doing this because she wanted to save the family's face.
But the young lady insisted on keeping the child and refused to listen to anyone. Even Li Jing did not dare to force her.
Because the young lady is so determined that anyone who touches her child will risk their life.
Bai Song had many more pictures in his mind. When he walked to the door, he was so moved that his eyes wet.
Bai Song didn't like this emotion, rubbed his eyes and knocked on the door.
The door opened, cracked a crack, and there was a little maid.
The other party was stunned when he saw Bai Song. For half a year, no man dared to approach this place.
"You...who are you?"
"The child's father."
[The author has something to say]
Regarding the fate of this child, the original plan was to make it a tragedy, which is more in line with the description of the fate of the protagonist. However, I dare not write it for fear that everyone will not accept it. How to deal with it has not been decided. Please give me your opinions.
