dress down
The queen was full of worries, the princess was full of confusion, and Baodai was full of sorrow.
Shen Jiabaodai and I are clearly descendants of meritorious officials. In front of the royal family, we are like playthings, and the Li family can kill or give us life and death at will. All the grace and favor from heaven are just illusions under the supreme power.
Taiji Palace, Lizheng Hall, was thrown into chaos for a moment because of Prince Fu's advice and the sage's decree.
There was commotion inside the East Palace, with angry eyes and silent expressions...uncharacteristically, there was nothing to block it.
The Crown Prince lost his composure, lost the demeanor of a Crown Prince, and even lost the demeanor of a heir to the throne.
Everyone can see it, everywhere, which is rare.
Prince Fu was the first to kowtow and express his gratitude.
Li Sanlang couldn't stop mumbling, like a raving, "Thank you, Emperor, for your grace, thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace, thank you, Saint, for your grace..."
Repeat over and over again, without stopping, like reciting scriptures.
The Crown Prince glanced sideways, his eyes bloodshot. I saw that he wanted to kill Prince Fu and wanted to chop him alive and throw his body in the East and West Markets to feed the jackals.
From birth to death, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not tolerate even the slightest bit of anyone from the Li family who covets the supreme throne.
The former Crown Prince Guo died first, and the Prince of Fu was also on the run at that time. After that, the Prince of Qi died a violent death.
In front of the emperor, the crown prince should be extremely cautious in his words and actions and be on guard at all times.
The prince suddenly revealed his rebellious intentions.
The sage is in danger, and the Eastern Palace is in danger.
The saint, His Majesty the Emperor of the Li Dynasty, was actually smiling.
Why do sages rejoice? Why do rulers rejoice?
Gods and ghosts are unfathomable, Buddhism and Taoism are unknown, and it is difficult for people to recognize them.
He Nu fell silent and was speechless.
The sage turned and asked me with a smile, "What do you think, Li Nu?"
In a hurry, Donggong stopped his jealous murderous intentions and looked at me intently.
Prince Fu paused for a moment and looked at me as well.
The King of Yue also looked at me against his will. The dispute over the throne and the quarrel between brothers, Li Liu probably wanted to watch the fun.
In Lizheng Hall, everyone's eyes were on me, and I was not happy.
Everyone in the hall was silent, waiting for my reply.
What do I think?
What can I do?
After marrying into Shaoyang Palace, she lived on thin ice every day.
After marrying into Prince Fu's house, she endured humiliation every day.
The eldest son of the Li family and the third son of the Li family.
I am neither happy to marry the Crown Prince nor happy to marry Prince Fu.
What's the difference between marrying the crown prince, marrying Prince Fu, or Prince Qi?
Once the smart and capable prince takes power, the Yan family may have no way to survive.
Prince Fu, who is illiterate, has great ambitions. If the Yan family follows Li Sanlang, they will surely be defeated and killed.
The Crown Prince hates me, and Prince Fu despises me.
If the Eastern Palace deposes the Yan family, I will enter the palace.
If Prince Fu plots a rebellion in the palace, I will enter the palace.
Ye Ting...Ye Ting...Ye Ting...
Perhaps what Li San said came true.
At that time, I thought that no matter which boy of the Li family I married, my final destination would be to be sent to the imperial palace as punishment for my crimes and to be a slave forever.
Shaoyang Courtyard, Longtan.
Prince Fu’s house, Tiger xue.
If I could really choose, if I could really choose, I would rather shed this skin, lose the Yan family name, escape from Chang'an City, stay away from Luoyang City, never ask about Linyi and Langya again, never enter Taiji Palace or Taichu Palace for the rest of my life, never live in the East and West Capitals, and never have anything to do with the Li family again.
The saint rewards his meritorious officials, and the Yan family has the greatest contribution, so the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace was naturally awarded to the Yan family. Your Majesty gave He Nu to me, but I don’t want to kowtow and accept the decree to express my gratitude.
The trouble for the Eastern Palace is the trouble for the Yan family, and the trouble for the Yan family is the trouble for the Eastern Palace.
First the crane slave, then the raccoon slave.
If the Crown Prince is not wise, the Li family will have plenty of men to replace him.
If the Yan family were not wise, there would be plenty of families in the world.
When I am useful, I am the wife of the Yan family. When I am useless, I am the bastard of the Yan family.
The Crown Prince, Prince Fu, for the sake of the Yan family's support in the army and the court, does not care about my legitimate or illegitimate status, and even less about my biological father.
Among their brothers, the one they should marry is my elder brother or my uncle.
Unfortunately, I am the only one they can marry. They have to endure all kinds of grievances, and I have to compromise even more.
Now that my grandparents and father are dead, the past is over.
The Yan family, Shanhua, elder brother, elder sister-in-law, uncle, nephew, cousin, cousin, and sister, I can't just ignore them.
"I, your humble servant, have no father or mother. My uncle is a Taoist priest in the mountains, and my brother is a foolish and barbaric soldier. As the sage is above me, I will obey his orders."
Hypocritical words, mixed with half truth and half falsehood, false benevolence and righteousness.
I don't really have the power to make decisions, so what I say cannot be said against my will.
I said I was loyal to the emperor, and my hands and feet were sincere. I took Princess Leyang's hand and stood behind the Empress.
The Yan family is loyal to Li and loyal to the emperor, and their loyalty to the Li family is as clear as the water reflecting the heart.
But my brother, protecting me is more important than being loyal to the emperor. If Prince Fu uses me as a threat, the Li family and Chang'an will surely be in chaos.
A saint will not disrupt the balance of the court without reason.
What Prince Fu said and what he wanted to do were intolerable to everyone in Taiji Palace.
In my opinion, there is no doubt that this is another round of pressure and testing on the Eastern Palace and the Yan family.
It was a simple and easy whipping probe.
Is the sage trying to warn the Eastern Palace and the Yan family, testing the prince's courage, or tying the Eastern Palace and the Yan family together for life and death?
I had no way of knowing then, and afterward, I had no desire to know.
The Eastern Palace should have understood this logic, but strangely, the Crown Prince remained silent for a long time.
I had said everything I wanted to say, and I believed that my words and actions were correct. The prince still looked at me without blinking, but his face was different from before, with a layer of anger and resentment.
The sage stopped walking, his eyes still rolling, and his laughter grew even wider. "Li Nu, you are the only one who can say that Yan Xiang is a mountain Taoist priest. You are also the only one who dares to say that Prince Yong is a foolish and barbaric soldier. I dare not do that! He Nu, why don't you say anything?"
It was either a crane slave or a raccoon slave. After asking the raccoon slave, it was a crane slave again.
The throne of the crown prince, the country, the imperial power, have long been firmly in the hands of His Majesty the Eastern Palace.
Who would be willing to give it up if I hand it over to someone else?
The prince's mother's family is not only restless, but also creates endless troubles.
The Eastern Palace cannot lose the Yan family, and the Central Palace cannot lose the Yan family either.
The more the Eastern Palace cares about the position of the Crown Prince, the more likely it is to lose its composure.
His Highness the Eastern Palace was reckless and clumsy, and he almost lost a lot because of a small mistake.
I secretly hoped that the Crown Prince would lose his temper, but I also didn't want him to say something that would harm the Queen.
It is a pity, but also a relief. If the prince cannot keep his composure, he will not be the crown prince.
He Nu bowed his head and replied, "Your Majesty, I rely entirely on your father's teachings."
"The prince needs to read more books. As for Li Ku, there is no need to read any more. If you continue to read, you will become a monster..." said His Majesty.
When the sage plucks a string, my mind remains unchanged. In fact, I know everything clearly.
The saint's eyes are like hooks, and he can read people's faces with absolute accuracy. Among the many ladies and sons of the Li family, not one has inherited all his wisdom.
I was born with a sharp mind, I'm good at reading people's faces and always being respectful, and my family is so powerful. If I study the words of the saints and the classics day and night, how can Your Majesty not be suspicious?
I stopped looking at the prince's expression and responded with a smile, saying yes naturally.
