Meiqiang miserably uses herself as a substitute

His Majesty alone.

The father-in-law didn't understand why His Majesty coughed suddenly.For a moment, he felt a little panic.

The late emperor also died of a cough.

Emperor Mingde waved his hand, telling his father-in-law not to pat, he took a few breaths, his fingers tightly clutching the dragon chair, staring at the empty hall with his red eyes.

Lonely...

One day, all the loyal people around the emperor will no longer submit.

It is destined to sit on this dragon chair alone.

Ruixin... I really... really want to come to you.

But no.

The country of Great Chu needs people.

Our child, he doesn't seem to want to be a prince.

How to do it?I can only force him.

I... can't hold it any longer...

The father-in-law stood on one side with his head bowed, and when he raised his eyes, he froze in place.

He saw a tear, which wet Emperor Mingde's eye socket, ran down his face, and splashed on the ground.

Chen Shu made it through that night.

When Chen Xiangrong rushed to the capital, she saw her granddaughter lying on the bed. She was so sad that she cried directly beside her bed and passed out.

This sadness is three parts true and seven parts false.

Xie Yan sneered and said, "Patriarch Chen's play must have been overdone."

Xiao Yan shook his head: "Of course you have to be serious about showing it to your father."

Xie Yan sighed: "It's just that I didn't expect this little girl to know this way at the age of 12...Chen Xiangrong has worked hard on this granddaughter."

Xiao Li said: "When Chen Shu woke up, only Patriarch Chen was by her side, and she didn't send anyone to report immediately."

His expression darkened, and he said, "What did Chen Xiangrong say to her?"

Xie Yan smiled: "You know."

Xiao Li nodded: "I don't know."

Xie Yan looked at him.

Don't know what to nod?

Xiao Ran calmly said: "I entered the palace today and saw what Chen Shu did, so I guessed it."

Xie Yan raised his eyes and remained silent.

Xiao Yan looked at him: "Chen Shu is very courageous, she trespassed on Yongzhao Hall."

"What did you say?" Xie Yan looked indifferently, looked at Xiao Ran, and continued to listen with interest, "No, what did she do?"

23. Chapter 23

Xiao Zhan said: "She was sick and asked to see her father. Those palace people stopped her, but she forced her to die."

Xie Yan knocked on the table with his finger, Xiao Yan continued: "If it were an ordinary person, he would have been convicted long ago. But in the eyes of Father, she saved his life..."

"Later, my father said that she had done a great job in rescuing her, and wanted to make her Princess He'an."

Xie Yan snapped his fingers.

The title of princess is not a small reward.

Patriarch Chen should be satisfied.

Xiao Li paused, frowned and said, "But she doesn't want the princess."

"No?" Xie Yan looked up at Xiao Ran: "Is she really stupid or fake? If the Chen family produces a princess, the power in the court will become more stable..."

"She wants to be a concubine." Xiao Yan said indifferently, "Or, old Patriarch Chen wants her to be a concubine."

Xie Yan choked, then chuckled, and started tapping on the table again: "Emperor Mingde still can't see this step? Even a fool can see it."

"I can see it..." Xiao Li said, "But even if I saw it, there is no evidence."

If the right talisman was really in the hands of the Chen family, Emperor Mingde would not dare to do anything lightly, lest the Chen family would jump over the wall in a hurry.

Xie Yan asked: "The emperor agrees?"

Xiao Zhan: "Naturally not."

The age difference between the two of them could be his daughter.

Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Chen Shu is a stalker."

"She's dying?" Xie Yan couldn't believe it, "What's wrong with you? The emperor isn't angry?"

Xiao Yan only said one word: "Nao."

Xiao Zhan: "Father wants to be angry, but Chen Shu has recently been the subject of discussion among ministers, and Father is not good at this juncture..."

Xie Yan turned his head away, and said displeasedly: "What's the rule of Da Chu? The emperor always looks at those ministers when he does things."

This emperor is too aggrieved.

Xiao Zhan said: "The rules were established by the late emperor, and the last emperor's will said that these cannot be changed."

Xie Yan grasped a point of these words, and looked at Xiao Ran: "A will?"

Knowing that he was thinking about the tiger talisman again, Xiao Li sighed and said, "The will is nothing."

This time it really has nothing to do with Tiger Talisman.

Xie Yan was silent.

Xiao Zhan: "What you want to investigate should be about the same. Ziqin, if you know too much, it's easy to get into trouble."

Xie Yan lowered his eyes and said with a smile: "Am I still afraid of disaster? I am afraid that disaster will not come by myself, so I can find it easily."

Xiao Zhan: "Why are you so idle?"

Xie Yan pointed to himself, "Am I free?"

He suppressed his smile and seemed to be talking to himself, "Maybe I'm free... That's why I want to find something to do."

Xiao Yan looked at him, feeling a little unbearable: "What have you experienced all these years?"

Xie Yan shook his head, "There is no need to tell you, Xiao Yan."

"Tell me everything you know." Xiao Yan frowned, his throat clenched: "But you didn't tell me anything, between us...it's not fair."

What Xie Yan wanted to know, he told without reservation, but Xie Yan... never told a little bit about his past, his purpose.

"You voluntarily, didn't you?" Xie Yan sneered lowly, as if he didn't care: "Nothing is fair."

He looked at Xiao Yan, "There has been no fairness between you and me since birth, and there will be no fairness in the future."

He was born with a red tide, and for more than 20 years, he has been in hell every day.And Xiao Zhan, who has been a prince since he was a child, has never tasted that kind of life.

In any case, the two of them have different experiences and different insights.

Not even close.

Xiao Yan looked at Xie Yan and remained silent.

After all, this person doesn't trust himself.

"I'll give you fairness." Xiao Li clenched his fists, "Do you want it?"

If Xie Yan wants fairness.

If only the emperor could give him justice, then he would...

The fist loosened for a moment.

He will be emperor.

But the man said: "I don't want it."

His tone was dull, without a trace of emotion, as if he didn't care.

The corners of Xiao Li's clothes were wrinkled, and he struggled to speak: "You don't want it?"

Xie Yan glanced at him, then looked away, and said lightly, "I don't want it."

I have endured the injustice for so many years, and I have long been used to it.

Fair enough, is it that important?

The so-called what should not be owned, what should not be lost, what is fair is not fair.

It's all life...

Emperor Mingde did not violate the will of the first emperor.

Chen Shu was brave enough to show her love for the emperor by dying.Emperor Mingde was helpless, and when Chen Shu recovered from his illness, he issued an imperial edict to make her Concubine Chen.

"The emperor...is sick!" Xie Yan was so shocked when he heard the news that he almost choked on the tea.

Su Ci reminded in a low voice: "Master, this is the Fourth Prince's Mansion."

Some words can't be said.

"Then, Chen Shu is sick!" Xie Yan changed the phrase: "Chen Xiangrong also has..."

"All right, all right." Su Ci interrupted him, supported his head and said, "They are all sick. Stop talking..."

Everyone he is scolding now, if provoked, will cause a lot of trouble.

Xie Yan glanced at him, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, how could it be so absurd?

Chen Xiangrong is old and her mind is not clear, so it is understandable to act impulsively.

It's understandable for Chen Shu to sacrifice herself for the sake of her family.

But Emperor Mingde...

He is the king of a country, Xie Yan originally thought that Emperor Mingde would not pay attention to Chen Shu's request.As a result, Chen Shu really became the second concubine Chen.

It is really incomprehensible.

Su Ci: "Master, what should we do now?"

Xie Yan: "Is Chen Shu favored?"

Su Ci: "Conferred the title of Concubine Chen, the emperor has never seen him once."

Xie Yan lowered his eyes, thoughtful, for a moment, he said: "It seems that he is not favored."

Emperor Mingde's mind is not so clear yet.

Su Ci was dumbfounded.

"What should I do if I am favored?" Xiao Yan pushed the door open and entered, and glanced at Su Ci with unkind eyes.

Su Ci still remembered the look in his eyes when he met Xiao Ran in the prison, seeing him now, he couldn't help trembling.

Xie Yan frowned slightly: "What are you doing here?"

Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes: "Is this your home?"

Xie Yan: "..."

Xiao Yan sat down next to Xie Yan, Su Ci felt a chill behind him, and said shrewdly: "It's nothing, why don't I go first..."

Xie Yan: "Don't leave."

Xiao Zhan: "Get lost."

The two voices were sandwiched together, and after the words were finished, the room was suddenly quiet.

Su Ci: "..."

Both of them looked at him unkindly, Su Ci froze in place, not knowing what to do for a moment.

In the end he ran away in despair.

Xie Yan looked at his back and said in a low voice, "Coward."

Xiao Zhan: "Study more, don't be afraid of everything all day long, and try to show your face in front of those ministers."

It's not good to be remembered.

Xie Yan ignored him and turned to leave.

"If Chen Shu is favored, what should you do?" Xiao Yan grabbed Xie Yan's arm.

"Of course it's to make her unfavorable." Xie Yan turned around and stretched out his hand to pull Xiao Ran's hand away.

Xiao Li's hand gripped his wrist so hard that it turned red.

"What are you crazy about?" Xie Yan was displeased, and frowned, "Get out, I'm going to sleep."

Without saying a word, Xiao Yan suddenly reached out to hug him, Xie Yan was startled, and quickly raised his fist and punched him in the chest.

Xiao Li snorted, but still didn't let go, he said: "Take it easy, it hurts."

Xie Yan mocked: "Aren't you in good health? You ran to the palace as soon as you woke up, and now it hurts from such a punch?"

Xiao Zhan said, "Because of whom?"

Xie Yan was expressionless: "Who hugged me and insisted on showing off alone?"

Obviously there is no need to be injured at all.

Xiao Zhan said, "It's my fault."

"It's good to know." Xie Yan said impatiently: "What are you doing here?"

Xiao Yan pulled him closer, and said in a low voice, "It's nothing, I just want to see you."

Xie Yan was puzzled, and struggled a few more times, "Get out."

"No." Xiao Yan pulled Xie Yan into his arms, he hit his chest with a sword wound, and he hissed lightly.

Xie Yan wanted to push away, but in the next second, he suddenly felt the pain on his back.
