Chapter 63 We are still the same as before
The princess sat down again and sighed, "Qianxue has already met the wrong person and just wants to be free. Why do you have to harm her?"
Xiao Mingzhe rolled his eyes at her.
Empress Dowager Liu twisted the Buddhist beads wrapped around her wrist, looked at Xiao Mingzhe with great interest and asked, "Did Master Liaochen really say that?"
She also felt that Xiao Mingzhe seemed to have a particularly unlucky life. When the previous emperor passed away, his brothers were all adults, and he was the youngest, so he had no chance to compete.
As soon as Emperor Ming ascended the throne, he was driven to Mobei before he was ten years old. He has been fighting on the battlefield for so many years, with countless knife and sword wounds on his body. Which prince is so miserable?
Later, he finally got married and married a princess from a country in the Western Regions. However, he didn't know that the woman was a killer and hurt his vital points, causing him to be gossiped about for many years.
Is it really because of karma?
"Mother, you also know that we, as military commanders, have committed too many sins," Xiao Mingzhe sighed lightly and said sadly, "If we don't find someone to resolve this, our lives will really be over."
Empress Dowager Liu was counting her Buddhist beads, seemingly in deep thought.
Xiao Mingzhe was silent for a moment, then continued, "Liaochen also said that if I marry Fang's daughter, my karma will be resolved and my old illness can be cured."
The old lady's eyes lit up: "Really?"
"You just listened to his nonsense," Xiao Mingjie said with a look of seeing through everything, "All the members of the Fang family were exiled to Luzhou. If you just want a Fang girl, can't you choose an unmarried one from those criminal slaves? It's not like the Fang family only has Qianxue as a daughter."
"Royal sister!" Xiao Mingzhe was really angry. He swept his cold eyes over the eldest princess and said, "Master Liaochen has calculated the horoscope. Not just any girl from the Fang family can do it!"
Xiao Mingzhe has lived up to his reputation as a man of integrity and honor, and he is willing to accept praise or criticism from others. That's why he doesn't believe in nonsense about karma. From the beginning to the end, the only thing he wants is imperial power.
A few months ago, that bald donkey Liaochen predicted that the "Phoenix Girl" would be born, so he asked him to rush back to Shangjing without stopping to avoid being beaten to it by others.
But the matter of Fengnu must not be known to others, otherwise it will easily cause turmoil in the court.
When Xiao Mingjie saw him like that, she was so frightened that she dared not speak anymore.
This man has lived in Mobei for a long time, and his violent temper is just like the half-moon blade he carries with him all year round, always flashing a cold light.
"Don't worry, Nineteen. I will help you find a solution." Empress Dowager Liu looked at her son and smiled kindly, "You don't have to worry. Qianxue is a very opinionated person. She has her own way to leave the Lu family."
As long as her son's illness can be cured, it would be fine to take care of the two children. After he recovers, she can take in a few concubines and have more children.
Xiao Mingjie recalled and said, "I remember Qianxue said that she wanted to divorce her husband and take her two children away from Shangjing."
"She can divorce her husband," Xiao Mingzhe lowered his eyes to look at the green tea leaves floating on the tea and blew on them, "but she can't leave Shangjing."
***
It is still drizzling, you can use an umbrella or not.
As soon as Fang Qianxue walked into Meihuaao, she saw Suiqiong coming towards her and winking at her.
Then Lu Changqing came along the corridor, took the umbrella from the maid, and held it for her himself: "Qianxue, you're back?"
"How come you have time to come here today?" Fang Qianxue asked indifferently.
"I have something to tell you." Lu Changqing walked with her all the way until they reached the veranda. He put away his umbrella, but still did not dare to look her in the eye. "Today, the Queen Mother decreed that Miao Yan and I should get married. The wedding date is set for the end of the month. I originally wanted to take her as a concubine, but the Queen Mother decreed..."
"Since the Queen has issued an imperial decree, then make good preparations." Fang Qianxue said generously, "You have been busy these days, so you don't need to come over."
"I'm afraid you'll be sad, how about tonight... I stay?" The man wore an official hat with rain on it, looking a little disheveled, but his face was still pleasing to the eye.
Fang Qianxue stared at him for a moment, then looked at the dripping water under the eaves: "No need, I am a few years older than Miss Xu, I should give in to her."
Xu Miaoyan is pregnant now and has an unpredictable temper. It is not easy for Lu Changqing to be ordered around by Xu Miaoyan.
"Are you really not angry?" Lu Changqing looked at her suspiciously.
"Why are you angry?" Fang Qianxue looked at him calmly with a faint smile in the corners of her eyes.
"Yes! How could I have thought wrongly? Even if I marry Miao Yan, you are still the second wife of the Lu family, and we will still be the same as before." The man suddenly swept away his decadence and said happily.
"I'm a little tired today, so I won't see you off, Second Master." Fang Qianxue asked Suiqiong to take the umbrella from Lu Changqing's hand and made a "please" gesture.
Watching the man walk into the rain, his back in flowing blue shirt was like an ink painting.
"Second Master." Fang Qianxue spoke softly.
