Chapter 884 A Good Woman Does Not Marry a Second Husband
Early the next morning, Xiao Xixi asked someone to invite Concubine Li over.
When Princess Li saw the love letter, her expression instantly became colorful.
Xiao Xixi asked with a smile: "What do you think?"
Princess Li took a deep breath and then spoke seriously.
"Are girls these days so unrestrained? She has never met the author, and doesn't even know if the author is a human or a ghost, yet she dares to write a love letter to the author. What if the author is a pervert? What if the pervert deliberately publishes her letters? Will she be able to see people in the future?"
Xiao Xixi leaned back: "So how are you going to reply to her?"
Li Fei: "Of course we need to educate her well and let her know how dangerous the outside world is, so that she won't be deceived by others in the future."
Xiao Xixi smiled and said, "You will definitely be a good mother in the future."
Concubine Li's expression darkened.
Given her current embarrassing situation, the possibility of her getting pregnant is very slim.
It is very likely that she will never be able to be a mother in her lifetime.
Xiao Xixi noticed the change in her expression and could probably guess what she was thinking.
"If you were given a chance to leave the palace forever, would you be willing?"
This question came so suddenly that Concubine Li was stunned for a long time before she reacted.
She subconsciously asked back, "I am already the emperor's concubine, how could I still have the chance to leave? Could it be that the emperor finally couldn't stand it anymore and planned to send all of us to Ziyun Temple?"
At the end of her speech, she looked horrified and felt extremely uneasy.
Although she could only live as a widow in the palace, at least she had no worries about food and clothing, and there were people to serve her, so her life was pretty good.
But if you go to Ziyun Temple, you can only have the green lamp and the ancient Buddha to accompany you for the rest of your life. Not only will you not have fancy clothes and jewelry to wear, you will also have to wash clothes and cook for yourself. The most important thing is that you can't even eat meat, and you can only eat vegetarian meals every day.
She would collapse just thinking about that kind of day!
She would rather be a widow than eat vegetarian food all her life!
The more Concubine Li thought about it, the more scared she became: "Did I do something wrong? Why did His Majesty suddenly want to kick me out?"
Xiao Xixi comforted him, "The emperor didn't say he wanted to kick you out. I was just asking casually."
Princess Li was still skeptical.
She felt that the emperor must have said something, otherwise the imperial concubine would not have suddenly asked this question.
Maybe this is what the emperor meant, and the imperial concubine asked this question to test her.
Xiao Xixi: "If... I mean if, if I give you a chance in the future, so that you can leave the palace and start a new life, not the kind of life of eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures in a nunnery, but to get married again, have a few children, and live the rest of your life in peace and stability, are you willing?"
Without thinking, Concubine Li blurted out, "Of course I am willing!"
Only a fool would not agree to such a good thing!
Then she came to her senses and asked suspiciously, "Why are you asking this out of the blue?"
After she finished speaking, she looked around deliberately, fearing that the emperor would jump out from somewhere.
Although the imperial concubine had only made an assumption just now, she did say that she was willing. If the emperor heard that, he would definitely be unhappy.
No man would like his woman to think about remarrying, and the emperor is no exception.
She secretly regretted that she had answered too quickly. What if this was a trap set by the imperial concubine?
Xiao Xixi: "If you really want to leave the palace and remarry, I can help you fulfill your wish."
Concubine Li pulled the corner of her mouth and laughed dryly: "Haha, the imperial concubine is really good at joking."
Xiao Xixi: "I am telling the truth. You can go back and think about it carefully. Then give me an answer after you have thought it through."
Seeing that she didn't seem to be joking, the fake smile on Concubine Li's face gradually disappeared.
"Are you serious, Madam Concubine?"
Xiao Xixi: "Of course, I won't joke about this kind of thing."
Princess Li actually wanted to agree immediately.
But she was worried that there was something fishy going on.
I really can't make up my mind.
She asked cautiously, "May I ask how you can help me leave the palace?"
Xiao Xixi: "You don't need to worry about these things. You just need to tell me whether you are willing or not."
Concubine Li: "The Emperor..."
Xiao Xixi: "I can handle him."
Princess Li tugged at her sleeves, feeling extremely conflicted.
If she stayed in the harem, she would probably be a widow for half her life.
But if she leaves the palace to marry again, will she be able to marry a good man? What if she marries a scumbag?
Will her family accept it? How will outsiders view her?
There are so many things to consider.
The more Princess Li thought about it, the more confused she became, and her mind was a mess.
She left Yunxiu Palace with a heavy heart.
After Concubine Li returned to Jinxiu Palace, her mind was full of thoughts about leaving the palace, and she had no intention of writing the storybook at all.
She sat in front of her desk all night, and finally she couldn't bear it anymore, so she asked someone to send a message back to the Li family, asking her mother to come to the palace.
Madam Li came into the palace that afternoon.
Mrs. Li hadn't seen her daughter for a long time. When she saw her for the first time, she was immediately shocked and blurted out.
"Why did you get fat again?!"
Princess Li: "..."
This is her own mother, what else can she do?
I can only forgive my own mother with a smile!
Princess Li pulled Madam Li to sit down.
After the palace maids served tea and snacks, Concubine Li dismissed all the servants, leaving only her and Madam Li in the room.
Princess Li didn't bother beating around the bush and just spoke out all the confusion in her heart.
Mrs. Li was shocked after hearing this.
"The Emperor wants to kick you out of the palace?!"
Princess Li motioned for her to speak more quietly.
Mrs. Li immediately shut her mouth, but after a moment she couldn't help but speak again, this time her voice was deliberately lowered a lot.
"Did you do something wrong? Why did the emperor drive you out of the palace?"
Concubine Li: "I have done nothing wrong, and the Emperor is not trying to drive me out of the palace. It was the Imperial Concubine who asked me if I was willing to leave the palace and remarry? From what I saw, she must be serious about this matter. I am willing to do so, but I don't know what my family thinks, so I want to ask your opinion?"
Mrs. Li remained silent.
As the saying goes, a good woman does not marry a second husband.
Of course she didn't want her daughter to marry again, but her daughter was not favored at all in the palace now. If she insisted on keeping her daughter in the palace, it would harm her instead.
My daughter is still so young, in the prime of her life like a flower, she shouldn't wither away silently in the deep palace.
If the emperor really has no interest in his daughter, letting her leave the palace and remarry would be a good option.
But marrying for the second time is not that simple.
First of all, her reputation is not good, and secondly, she may not marry a suitable husband even if she remarries.
After a long while, Mrs. Li spoke cautiously.
"This is a big deal. I can't make the decision on my own. I have to go back and ask your father what he thinks."
Princess Li seemed to have expected this result and nodded in response.
"good."
