After passing through the book, Mr. Chief Assistant came to rely on me

"Yu'er, don't forget who raised you and who gave you everything you have. If it weren't for your father's favor, do you think you are still qualified to talk to me like this now? "Concubine Shu scolded sternly.

Nangong Yu'er was speechless for a moment, lowered her head and stopped talking. She just clenched her fists, and her nails were embedded in her flesh, dripping with blood.

The emperor is her father, but in her heart he is not as good as a bastard!

"I will not allow you to harm Su Xiaoxi's life. You can't even think of ruining my plan!"

Nangong Yu'er was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised her head, stared at Concubine Shu, and asked: "Concubine, what is your conspiracy?"

Concubine Shu did not expect that Nangong Yu'er would suddenly ask herself this question. She frowned slightly and quickly regained her composure, "Yes, Concubine Mu does have a secret."

"Mother Concubine, what are you going to do?!" Nangong Yu'er was furious. She didn't like to see Concubine Shu looking so indifferent.

"I don't want to do anything. I just want you and Qing Yan to be well."

"No, concubine, tell me, tell me what you are going to do!" Nangong Yu'er shook her head, she didn't believe it, she didn't believe that concubine could be so good!

"Don't force me to take action!" Concubine Shu said coldly.

Nangong Yu'er froze in place, tears falling slowly.

"Concubine, why! What did I do wrong that you would treat me like this? I am your biological daughter!" Nangong Yu'er cried heartbreakingly.

"You don't understand, you will never understand!" Concubine Shu closed her eyes and said painfully, "I don't want Qing Yan to be in danger. I only hope that he will be prosperous and wealthy for the rest of his life, instead of being despised like he is now. .”

After listening to Concubine Shu's words, Nangong Yu'er gradually stopped crying and looked at Concubine Shu in confusion, "Concubine, please tell me clearly, what happened?"

Seeing that Nangong Yuer stopped making trouble, Concubine Shu breathed a sigh of relief, "This matter is related to the future of Qingyan, and I don't want you to be involved in it."

"Concubine, can't my brother be powerful in the future?" Nangong Yu'er asked doubtfully.

"Silly girl, why don't I want him to be powerful, but what do you think of your father's treatment of him over the years?"

Nangong Yu'er was stunned and speechless for a long time.

She had grown up under the protection of Concubine Shu and her brother since she was a child. However, Nangong Che had never given her the slightest help, and had never even set foot in the harem.

Her mother-in-law was also treated coldly, but she was happy with it.

Maybe she really isn't smart enough, but that doesn't mean she's stupid!

She could see that her father was not the mother-in-law who loved her at all.

"But, he is the son of his father, doesn't he deserve the best from him?" Nangong Yu'er was puzzled.

A trace of sadness flashed in Concubine Shu's eyes, "Your father has always been a ruthless and unjust person. His love for you is only the queen and his childhood sweetheart Concubine Hui."

After hearing Concubine Shu's words, Nangong Yu'er was stunned.

It turned out that her father had never loved her mother-in-law. From childhood to adulthood, she thought that she had robbed her of all his love and affection.

"Concubine, why? Why can he treat you like this?" Nangong Yu'er asked angrily.

She had always felt that it was normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. Why was his father so partial?

"Concubine Mother will tell you about this later. Remember, never alert the enemy." Taking a deep breath, Concubine Shu warned.

"Yes!" Nangong Yu'er nodded heavily. Although she was unhappy in her heart, she knew that it was not the right time to talk about this matter. After all, it might expose her mother and concubine's whereabouts.

"Yu'er, remember, you must protect yourself at all times, you know?"

"Yu'er knows!" Nangong Yu'er responded firmly, but her heart was full of uneasiness.

"Mother, if you need your daughter's help, she will do her best!"

"Good boy, I know you are filial and I will not treat you badly." After saying that, Concubine Shu took out a red token from her sleeve and placed it on the table. Nangong Yu'er picked up the token and looked at it carefully. ,What is this?

"Yu'er, remember, you can never betray me at any time!"

"You should keep this token. If it comes to a time when you really have to use it, you can only use it. Remember, this is Qingyan's only chance."

Nangong Yu'er nodded as if she understood, and then asked, "Concubine, what on earth is this? Why should I give it to my brother?"

"This is the bargaining chip I used to save your brother. In the future, if your brother ascends the throne, you will be a noble princess. My mother-in-law hopes that you can live happily for the rest of your life." Concubine Shu said softly.

"Mother, my daughter must torture Su Xiaoxi to death!" Nangong Yu'er refused.

"Yu'er, this palace owes you two brothers and sisters, so I can't make up for it in this life! You just need to promise me that you will protect Qing Yan no matter when and where you are."

Looking at Concubine Shu's serious expression, Nangong Yu'er finally nodded, "Okay, I promise you."

……

Inside the imperial study.

Nangong Chen was a little surprised when he heard that Su Xiaoxi asked for an audience just after leaving the morning court.

After all, his daughter still had great ideas. He didn't know why he came here today.

"Xuan!"

After a while, Su Xiaoxi came in, still wearing her usual plain clothes, her face still pale, as if she was weak.

Su Xiaoxi knelt respectfully in front of Nangong Che.

"My son, please see your father!" Su Xiaoxi explained the purpose of her visit straight to the point.

"Say it!" Nangong Chen glanced at Su Xiaoxi sharply.

Su Xiaoxi raised her head to meet Nangong Che's cold eyes, and couldn't help but feel a thump in her heart.

Su Xiaoxi was frightened by Nangong Chen like this.

"Your Majesty, I would like to ask you to go to the border to defend against the Beirong soldiers." Su Xiaoxi bit her lip and continued speaking.

Hearing this, Nangong Chen's expression suddenly changed, "Nonsense! I don't agree!"

Su Xiaoxi did not expect that Nangong Chen's reaction would be so intense.

However, the more fierce Nangong Chen became, the firmer her decision became.

"Father, I have made my mind up, and I ask my father to make it come true." Su Xiaoxi's attitude was firm.

"Su Xiaoxi, I will never let you die this time." Nangong Chen said firmly, leaving no room for negotiation at all.

"But Father, this time the enemy army invades and the people are in dire straits. If I just sit back and do nothing, wouldn't it be a waste of Father's teachings?" Su Xiaoxi argued with reason.

"You are the princess of Daning and you have a mission. How can you sacrifice yourself for the sake of the common people?" Nangong Chen was obviously a little unhappy. This daughter really disappointed him!

"Father, if it is because of the people, then father should not leave his sons and ministers in the palace."
