The hookup of the scumbag

It has been a long time since the queen came in, but Li Xuan has been lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling with his eyes open, the room is quiet, only the slight breathing of the other party can be heard.

The ancient and exquisite pendulum clock suddenly sounded "dang-dang". It turned out that before I knew it, it was now exactly nine o'clock in the evening.

Since the scandal happened during the royal family's external activities in the afternoon, to the questioning, to Li Xuan's fainting, and finally to the relative silence between the two of them.In such a short period of time, Li Xuan felt that the world was changing too fast, as if he had experienced his life at a slow pace in the first 40 years, step by step, but until today, God opened his eyes to him. He made a joke, his life seemed to be inserted into a theater that was incompatible with his previous rhythm and plot, which he couldn't accept at all.

The head resting on the pillow slowly turned to the side, and his eyes moved down to the queen sitting not far away, his wife of 20 years.

She had been sitting upright, feeling his gaze, and slowly raised her head to meet his gaze.Li Xuan tried his best to find out from her eyes, but couldn't find a trace of guilt or regret.She just... looked at him without any emotion.

Li Xuan suddenly felt ridiculous for himself at this moment.The queen... married him for 20 years. During such a long time, they faced each other day and night, but he still hadn't figured out the true character of the person next to him.Li Xuan didn't know how he got here in the past 20 years. Looking at her now, he felt that it was no different from seeing a stranger!

Thinking of this, the anger in his heart was extinguished at once.For her, he never fulfilled his duties as a husband and made her wait for many years without any response to her feelings. Even if she resented him, it was reasonable.As for today's farce, he didn't believe it from the beginning to the end. He thought, maybe this is her venting her dissatisfaction with him. Although she shouldn't use the royal reputation to mess around, but at this moment, after calming down and thinking , Li Xuan's anger had subsided, and even the guilt in his heart began to churn again.

Thinking of this, he finally spoke in a soft and calm voice, "Queen, what are your plans for this matter?" There was a discussion tone in his words.

The queen lowered her eyelids, "The concubine is willing to fully bear the consequences of this matter."

Li Xuan was stunned, he didn't expect that his overtures would be rejected by the queen.He looked serious and asked, "Do you know what you're talking about?"

The queen bowed her head, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Seeing the Queen's unsalty appearance, Li Xuan felt that his worries about her were in vain!His anger was rekindled, he lifted the quilt and stood up abruptly, suppressing his anger and said: "Queen, do you know the situation you are in now! Now the clan association is almost all supporters of Prince Xiaolie, even the leader of the party. After Huizheng Palace returned to China, they have been actively waiting for an opportunity to support Maharaja Yicheng's ascension to the throne. If this incident is not handled well, they will choose to sacrifice you to save Maharaja!"

The queen still lowered her head, and there was no slight wave in her voice: "My concubine is terrified."

Li Xuan only felt that his eyes were dark again, and he stepped back and supported the head of the bed to hold on.

"Please take care, Your Majesty." He heard the queen say this, but he was unwilling to take a single step.

He really felt the chill spreading in his heart at this moment, and smiled bitterly, "I... want to be alone."

The queen stood up silently, bowed to him, and walked to the edge of the paper door.You Shanggong immediately opened the door for her.

"Why?" Li Xuan asked unwillingly, "Why did it change?"

Shang Gong immediately lowered his head and stepped aside.

The queen didn't look back, but stopped, bowed her head in silence for a moment, and then said: "...the concubine doesn't know, maybe... just don't want to live like this anymore, maybe the concubine can pursue another life without the eyes of the people , without the strict demands of the clansmen, without the immutable palace rules, I am just me, and I don’t need to pretend to be someone else.”

After hearing this, Li Xuan didn't know what to say, and in the end he could only sigh from the helplessness in his heart, "...you know, there has never been a precedent for divorce in the imperial family..."

The queen didn't respond, and the two were silent for a while, then she lifted her foot and prepared to leave.

"Zhen, I want to live a good life with you, so... don't leave, okay?" Li Xuan panicked the moment she left. He didn't know what kind of feelings he had for her, but he couldn't imagine What would his life be like without her.So, in a low voice, he begged sincerely.

But the queen just stopped for a moment, then stepped out with the other foot, and left without any hesitation.

Shang Gong bowed respectfully to Li Xuan to salute, and then the door was also closed.

Li Xuan supported the head of the bed, and sat back on the side of the bed in a daze. After a while, he suddenly laughed lowly, the more he laughed, the more sad, the water droplets followed his tough outline, leaving traces, and slid to his mouth side, let him taste the bitter taste.

Outside the door, upon hearing the commotion inside, the two Shang Palaces looked at each other, then lowered their heads, not daring to reveal their thoughts to the outside world.

Huifu Palace.

"Who are you?" Huizheng Gong asked with fear and expectation in the face of this man who was exactly like his son.

Before the other party opened his mouth, Huizheng Gong said to himself again: "How could it be someone else, you are my law, how could my mother recognize you?" She looked up at him with eager eyes and a silky expression on her face. Ruth excitedly said, "That's right, you are Lil, aren't you?"

Lin Mo just stared fixedly at the woman on the opposite side who had been trying to convince herself, but she was smart and had already guessed something, but she was still unwilling to let herself believe the truth, preferring to deceive herself.

Lin Mo didn't answer, and Huizheng Gong didn't intend to give him this opportunity to answer, she has already answered the words eagerly, saying: "Okay, Lu, today's matter will be handled properly for you, and it will definitely not cause any harm to your succession to the throne in the future." Influence. You just relax, go back and have a good rest, go back first, huh?"

Lin Mo didn't linger, got up slowly, opened the door and left.

It wasn't until the door was closed again that Huizheng Gong leaned weakly on the cushion, his eyes were empty, and he didn't speak anymore.

"In response to the disrespectful behavior of Maharaja Yicheng and the Empress yesterday, the royal family will hold an urgent press conference at three o'clock sharp this afternoon..."

"According to reliable sources, His Majesty the Emperor, who planned to abdicate some time ago, will attend the press conference to explain what happened yesterday..."

"Let's replay yesterday's incident now... Is this a mistake or is it true?... We will listen to the press conference this afternoon..."

Li Xuan stood up straight and let the internal officials adjust his tie. Finally, he opened his hands and put on the silver-gray suit jacket they spread out. Someone stepped forward to button the front buttons for him, and the appearance adjustment was finally completed.

He stepped out of the door and came to the living room, where his empress was already sitting on a chair, and Huizheng Palace was sitting opposite.

He nodded slightly towards Huizheng Palace, Huizheng Palace also returned the salute silently.Then, his eyes rested on the queen again, and seeing her still indifferent appearance, he couldn't help feeling sad in his heart.

Huizheng Palace spoke up, and begged, "The reputation of the Empress and Maharaja Yicheng is left to Your Majesty."

Li Xuan just nodded, glanced at the queen again, and then led the internal officials out.

It wasn't until the gradually closing door blocked Li Xuan's back that Huizheng Gong looked back, put his eyes on the woman opposite, and warned: "Please, stay away from my son, if you don't want to be ruined." Without looking at his expression, he walked away.

Zhou Xiao just raised her eyes slightly, and saw the woman who was threatening her arrogantly, but she was actually more panicked and frightened than anyone else in her heart, so she could only use sharp words to bluff.

"Your Majesty is here—"

Reporters and media personnel put down their cameras one after another, and all looked towards the entrance where Li Xuan was about to appear.Seeing His Majesty's figure appeared, they all bowed silently to salute.

Li Xuangang entered the hall of the press conference, and he couldn't help but feel a little dizzy from the dense crowd of heads below. The internal officer behind him immediately noticed it, and wanted to reach out to help him worriedly.

Li Xuan closed his eyes and felt better. He refused the help of the inner officer, showed a decent smile, and continued to walk forward.

After Li Xuan sat down with the accompanying officials, the spokesperson began to explain the purpose of the press conference.

"Now, friends from the media can ask questions." As soon as the words fell, everyone immediately raised their hands.

"Excuse me, what does the royal family think of the political significance behind the shoe-throwing incident yesterday?"

The spokesperson replied: "After investigation, yesterday's incident did not originate from the constitutional meeting or related organizations. The suspect was only a 16-year-old teenager. According to his account, he did such an outrageous behavior just for fun, or there was an element of publicity involved." Finally, it is urgent to strengthen the patriotic education of young people and enhance their ability to distinguish right from wrong."

"Have the Empress, the Crown Princess and Maharaja Yicheng been harmed in this incident?"

Spokesman: "Thank you for your concern. The empress, the concubine, and Maharaja Yicheng are all well."

"Hello, maybe this question is rather abrupt, but it is what we people want to know the most. May I ask, what is the truth about the rumor that Maharaja Yicheng loves the empress?" Although the reporter was asking the spokesperson, But his eyes kept sneaking glances at His Majesty the Emperor who had been silent all the time.

Spokesman: "You also said just now that rumors are just rumors and should not be taken as true. When the shoe-throwing incident happened, I believe that most of you were present and should have seen it more clearly than me. The fact is that the empress was attacked and her body Out of filial piety, Maharaja Yicheng, a courtier, rescued the empress and saved her from being injured. Maharaja Yicheng should be rewarded and praised for his actions, not questioned and blamed."

Immediately, a reporter raised his hand and asked, "However, after the Maharaja Yicheng rescued the empress, he still hugged the empress, isn't that suspicious?"

The internal official standing behind Li Xuan nodded slightly towards the spokesperson, who immediately understood and said, "Regarding this issue, our honorable majesty is willing to come and clarify your doubts."

The reporter was immediately excited, can His Majesty finally bear it?

The cameras changed directions one after another, aiming at His Majesty who was sitting in the middle.

Li Xuan nodded slightly towards the camera, and said seriously: "I am very grateful to everyone for your concern for the Queen and the Majesty. Regarding the reason for the question just now, I was originally unwilling to disclose it to the people, but since the matter has been forced to this point, then, I have no choice but to explain in detail. What happened is that after Maharaja Yicheng rescued the queen, he had to rely on the maharaja because of the queen's health. In fact, the queen...has dizziness."

As soon as this remark came out, the reporters below began to whisper, which soon developed into a heated discussion.

Queen has dizziness?Why was there no news before this time?Is it a lie of the royal family to cover up the scandal or is it true?

Huizheng Gong watched the live TV broadcast. Seeing this scene, she picked up her mobile phone and made a call.

"My lord, when is the clan meeting scheduled to be held?"
