Chapter 33 The old fox admits that someone wants to rebel
The candlelight is lonely and the two shadows are swaying.
There is a saying that couples have the seven-year itch, but this is not a common saying in this era. Simply put, the status of men and women is unequal. Unless it is a man who is as afraid of hen as a tiger, generally speaking, the saying of seven-year itch can only be used in men.
In other words, there are a lot of scum chasing young girls in this era.
But what Princess Chu couldn't understand was that although her aunt was charming, she was not young at all. Not only was she not young, she was also a bit old.
Could it be that my husband likes older people?
Thinking of this, her heart ached.
It's relatively common to like young people, and she can accept it, but if her husband imitates Wei Wu and likes mature women, it's really hard for her to accept.
As for Li Zhiyun, after admitting that the child was him, he just sat silently, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry.
In fact, Li Zhiyun felt that his wife was making a fuss out of a molehill. He was just getting along with his aunt, not with his wife...ahem.
Is there anything unacceptable.
Looking at the concubines in the palace, some women are even more than thirty years younger than Lao Li.
No one said anything.
Rare and strange.
Most people are inflated, their desires expand along with their ambitions, and power is fertile ground for ambition.
As Li Zhiyun gained more and more power, his mentality had undergone earth-shaking changes without even realizing it.
In the past, he might have talked softly with his wife, hoping that she would spare him this time, but now, he doesn't want to do that.
He didn't know why, but he always felt that if he gave in this time, it would be a little...well, he would lose his status a little bit.
People often have difficulty reflecting on themselves.
Li Zhiyun thought that he could be independent of this era, but he himself did not realize that he had begun to be assimilated by this era.
For example, he used to be disgusted with sitting on his knees because his legs felt uncomfortable. But now he is used to sitting on his knees and feels that sitting on his knees is an inherent etiquette.
Corrosion often starts bit by bit. Li Zhiyun is not a saint, so how could he notice it.
"Does the king plan to marry his aunt?" Her voice was cold, far different from the previous affection and affection for her husband.
Li Zhiyun asked, "Isn't it possible?"
"How can this be done!" Princess Chu said bitterly: "Your Majesty, Aunt Ruona, how do you want the people of the world to treat your Majesty? How do you ask your civil servants to regard your Majesty?"
"Absurd, I have always acted openly and aboveboard. I have provided food and clothing to the people so that they can be provided for in their old age, cultivated in their youth, and educated in their young. Why worry about the people not returning home? The civil and military forces in Gancheng have followed this king for a long time, and they know and trust each other. If Because if I lose my heart when I accept a woman, she is not worthy of my trust."
He doesn't understand. He's not the Queen Mother Naxiao, so why does he need to be so up to date?
To take a step back, he didn't take in his second sister-in-law, so there's nothing unacceptable for others. Although Yang Mudan is his wife's aunt, in the final analysis, Yang Mudan and his wife clearly have a different relationship.
My wife's grandfather and Yang Mudan's father are biological brothers. Yang Mudan is not my wife's direct aunt at all, so what's wrong with her? Not to mention that they are legitimate concubines, so what's the relationship?
"You..." Princess Chu's pretty face turned red with anger.
She tilted her head and sulked, and couldn't help sobbing softly.
Ever since they got married, her husband had never had such a quarrel with her because of a woman. What's more, this woman was her aunt, which made her even more heartbroken.
She felt like she was bullied and betrayed by her husband.
Li Zhiyun sighed slightly when he heard his wife crying.
He couldn't bear to see his wife cry, especially because of himself.
He stood up and walked over, reaching out to hug her from behind.
At first, she struggled a little, but Li Zhiyun was very strong and she couldn't break free, so she had to let him go.
"You have an aunt, why do you want a concubine? Since the king can't bear to let go of his aunt, he should abandon his concubine and marry his aunt."
"Okay, I know I was wrong, don't say angry words. Even if I jumped off the tower, I still wouldn't be able to let you go, so why don't you cry?" Li Zhiyun coaxed his wife gently.
He really likes his wife, but he will make the same mistakes that all men make. What's more, he is now the most noble and powerful man in the world.
Therefore, some things can no longer restrain him.
"Just cry, just cry!"
The more Li Zhiyun persuaded her, the more aggrieved she felt, and tears flowed down her beautiful cheeks as if they were free of money.
Li Zhiyun had one head and two big heads. At this time, he finally realized that he was a little too inflated.
"I admit my mistake, I admit my mistake."
"You are right, it was me who was wrong. I am a woman. I should not have offended the king. It is all my fault." She acted like a little woman, acting petty.
Li Zhiyun smiled bitterly, and could only hold his wife in his arms, and would not let go even if she beat him with her little pink fist.
Damn, what the hell is this?
After coaxing her softly and affectionately for a while, she finally calmed down.
"What are you going to do?" She looked up at her husband's handsome cheek with bright eyes filled with tears.
Li Zhiyun lowered his head to wipe her tears, hugged her and sat down.
"You are a big lady, so naturally it is up to you to make the decision."
"Okay, in that case, in order to protect the reputation of the king, I will become this evil person. Tomorrow, I will send a bowl of Five Poison Soup to my aunt."
"Ah?" Li Zhiyun stared and said dryly: "How can this happen? I heard that this soup is very harmful to the body. Isn't it appropriate?"
"Um?"
Seeing that his wife's expression was wrong, Li Zhiyun sighed: "I was the one who made the mistake. What does it have to do with the child? If I take the child's life, my aunt will be endangered. Madam, how can you bear it?"
"Did your husband ever consider himself and my feelings when he was having fun with his aunt?" she asked in return.
Li Zhiyun was silent for a while, then said with a stiff face: "You are a doctor, you make the decision, I won't interfere."
After saying that, he put down his wife, stood up and walked to the door. He stood there for a while and said, "You can do whatever you want. I won't interfere with what you do."
Wow.
The sliding door opened and Li Zhiyun disappeared.
Watching Li Zhiyun leave, she felt inexplicably panicked and at the same time felt very aggrieved. She was just talking about it, and she had never really thought about harming the life of her unborn child.
Before giving birth to Zhao'er, she never thought about harming other children in the palace, let alone now.
As she thought about it, she cried again.
Not long after, Li Zhiyun came back again, carrying a food box in his hand.
She was stunned for a moment, then her face turned cold and she fell silent.
Seeing this, Li Zhiyun smiled, walked forward, coaxed and hugged her, and finally persuaded Princess Chu to lose her temper.
The main reason why she put down her anger was because she was worried that her husband would completely ignore the matter. By then, if she did something wrong and made her husband angry, it would be more than worth the loss.
As for Li Zhiyun, he naturally won't act like a child, and he still respects and loves his wife very much. However, persuasion also requires strategies.
"Good lady, please forgive my husband this time."
Princess Chu snorted and said nothing. However, her attitude was already relaxed, which showed that Li Zhiyun still had some discernment.
Striking while the iron was hot, Li Zhiyun gave another sweet talk, which finally made Princess Chu relax.
She said: "If my husband can trust me, let me handle this matter."
"You can trust it, you can trust it." Li Zhiyun agreed repeatedly.
Seeing the pleading look on his face, Princess Chu said angrily: "Don't worry, husband, I will make your wish come true."
Hearing this, Li Zhiyun smiled, hugged his wife and took a sip.
"As expected of my wife."
"You." Princess Chu said angrily, "You know how to cause trouble for me."
"It won't happen next time, it won't happen next time," Li Zhiyun said obediently.
Just when he was about to further communicate with his wife, the maid suddenly came to report.
"Your Majesty, Guard Li has come to report that Prime Minister Pei Ji has asked to see your Majesty."
