White Hedge Dream

Chapter 70 Accident

Ruibo looked helpless at Cai Songnian.

"Young Master had a nightmare, and when he woke up he was completely lost." He whispered.

It turned out that he was dreaming about the woman on the arrest document. If he thought about it again, Shopkeeper Cai wouldn't find it strange.

I think about it every day and dream about it at night.

Shangguan Yue ignored the whispers of the two people here. He knew that he never thought about it every day and dreamed about it at night. He had thought about so many people and so many things, but they had never appeared in his dreams.

Although I only had a brief glimpse of the woman in my dream last night, the more I thought about it, the more I thought I had seen her somewhere before, and finally I suddenly thought of the arrest document.

Sure enough, Shangguan Yue looked at the portrait. Her eyebrows and face shape were similar, but her breath was different. The woman in the dream was more youthful and energetic than in the portrait.

"Sir, dreams are absurd and all lies." Seeing Shangguan Yue's lost look, Ruibo came over to persuade her, "Don't think so much, think about how long it will take for the princess to adopt Shangguan."

Shangguan Yue nodded. Of course he knew that dreams were absurd, false, and bizarre, but he also knew that his dreams were not.

He reached out and touched his cheek again, as if the feeling of finger touch still remained.

What's more important.

Shangguan Yue took a gentle breath, and the moment he woke up, he smelled the strange aroma of the boat on the building that seemed like a dream but not a dream.

There must be something wrong with this dream.

"Shopkeeper Cai." He shook the arrest document and said, "Go and find out who the woman Zhang Ze is looking for is."

As for Shangguan Kejiu being adopted.

“Consist with the ever-changing situation by staying the same.”

Having said this, I laughed at myself.

"Who makes me be rejected by the princess? It would be nice to be alive."

…

…

Princess Jinyu took Shangguan Kejiu into the palace. She originally thought that the emperor would be able to see her after the morning court, but unexpectedly the chamberlain said that the queen had gone to see the emperor.

After waiting for a while, the emperor returned to the imperial study, looking very unhappy.

Princess Jinyu frowned and asked, "Yang Yuan is making noise with you again?"

This is the queen's maiden name. Princess Jinyu often nominates the title, which makes the queen angry. The emperor often advises Princess Jinyu, not now, to let Princess Jinyu save some face for her.

Princess Jinyu naturally ignored her: "If her mother hadn't been a maid for me back then, how could their family have been in and out of the palace, and how could they have been accused of being married and be full of glory today."

But this time when Princess Jinyu called her by her first name, the emperor didn't say anything. He sat down and rubbed his eyebrows: "No, no, just a few words."

Princess Jinyu sneered: "Just spoil her. If you spoil Jiang Mian'er again, you and I will die."

Jiang Mian'er, this name was somewhat unfamiliar to the emperor, but when it suddenly rang in his ears, he couldn't help but shudder.

Empress Chiang!

The emperor didn't want to hear the name at all, so he hurriedly said: "She did not interfere in the government affairs, but a concubine in the palace was sick. I asked all the doctors from the imperial hospital to see her, but Yuan Niang thought it was too much."

Concubine, it turns out it was because of this. Princess Jinyu smiled and said, "What's wrong with this? Our family is full of lovers." As she said this, she glanced at the kneeling attendant behind her.

The attendant, who was in his twenties and had a soft appearance, heard Princess Jinyu's words and poured tea from the side and handed it to her.

Princess Jinyu didn't answer, she turned her head and took a sip from his hand.

Shangguan Kejiu stayed behind with his head lowered, not daring to take another look.

The emperor didn't care, he was used to the princesses' behavior.

"It's also Liulang that you have suffered for many years. There are too few people around you, and now Yang Yuan is not used to it." Princess Jinyu continued, "I will select some beauties for you."

The emperor hurriedly waved his hand: "Fourth sister, please don't cause any more trouble."

"How can this be called causing trouble? Doesn't she allow you to have beauties around you?" Princess Jinyu sneered, "What? She has been teasing you for so many years and she doesn't even have a son or a half. What's the point of that!"

When it comes to heirs, the emperor's face is a little embarrassed. Now he only has two daughters on his knees. They were born to the maids in the palace. Neither his wife nor the Bai family had any children. But at that time, Empress Chiang was in power, so it was okay not to have children. The princes were trembling with fear and gave birth to children. My son is just afraid that he will cause trouble.

After becoming the emperor, the harem was full, but let alone sons, for more than five years, he had not even given birth to a daughter.

There are rumors from the outside world that he was drugged by Empress Chiang to cut off his fertility.

The emperor himself was a little doubtful.

"Liu Lang is now the emperor, shouldering the inheritance of the Great Zhou Dynasty. These words are not only unpleasant to hear, but will also shake the court." Princess Jinyu said, raising her sleeves to cover her face and crying, "not to mention the court, Let’s just say that as someone’s daughter-in-law, it’s really hard to describe the feeling of having no children.”

The emperor did not pay attention to Princess Jinyu's tears. No matter how difficult the life of the princess and daughter-in-law was, it would not be any more difficult. He only said perfunctorily: "If the Shangguan family dares to treat you lightly, I will never spare them!"

Princess Jinyu choked with sobs: "Liu Lang, I can't be alone and helpless no matter what, even if I am adopted."

Shangguan Kejiu knelt behind him, took a step forward, and said with tears, "Auntie, as long as Kejiu is here, you will never be alone."

The emperor glanced at the two of them and showed no emotion at all. He naturally knew Princess Jinyu's plan, but Shangguan's consort had a biological son, so it was unreasonable to insist on adopting one.

Who doesn’t want his own flesh and blood.

"What's so unjustifiable!" Princess Jinyu was annoyed, "My surname is not Shangguan, why not do it for the Shangguan family? The adopted son is also a bloodline of the Shangguan family. What does he have to lose by having another son from Shangguan?"

He said looking at the emperor.

"Your Majesty, it's time for you to make a decision. Otherwise, Yang Yuan will blame you if she can't give birth to a son. You will be indebted to her, and the entire Yang family will step on your head to show off their power."

The emperor sighed. He was over forty and it was time to make a decision. Otherwise, his knees would be empty and the country would be uneasy.

"The adopted son is also our family's bloodline." Princess Jinyu saw the emperor's face and knew that it was going to happen this time, so she hurriedly continued.

But mid-sentence, a chamberlain stumbled in.

"Your Majesty." Wang Degui shouted, "Bai"

When he was about to blurt out the words, seeing Princess Jinyu there, he hurriedly swallowed it back and walked carefully to the emperor's side to whisper in his ear.

Princess Jinyu snorted coldly, why can't she, the princess, listen to anything? Forget about listening, what if she interferes with court affairs?

Jiang Mian'er was able to intervene back then, and so can she.

I originally thought it would be great to be favored by the emperor, have a noble status, have no worries about food and clothing, and not have to be restricted by my husband's family when I get married. However, since I witnessed Jiang Mian'er making trouble, I suddenly felt that living like this was not the best. The best way to live is to be in power.

Thinking of those so-called princes and princesses, in the hands of the powerful Jiang Mian'er in those ten years, they lived like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, worse than pigs and dogs!

Now Jiang Mian'er has been dead for five years, and she still often has nightmares, kneeling at Jiang Mian'er's feet and trembling.

It's just that Jiang Mian'er was a commoner woman. She relied on the emperor's favor to fly to the sky. The emperor's favor was gone, and she didn't have any children. In the end, everything was in vain.

She is different. She is the princess of Zhou Dynasty and the emperor's biological sister. State affairs are her family's affairs. It is only natural and right for her to take care of the family affairs and help her biological brother.

The first step in participating in political affairs is to allow the emperor to adopt an heir.

Then participate in the selection of heirs.

Princess Jinyu was confused, and suddenly she heard the emperor cry out, "Really?"

The sound was particularly loud in the empty hall.

Seeing the emperor's dull expression, Princess Jinyu frowned: "Your Majesty, why are you so alarmed?"

The emperor looked at her, still in shock and in a daze: "I, I, I knew that those rumors were corrupting me."

Is it about being unable to have children?

Princess Jinyu slapped the table: "Why should you care about these words? Even if it's your own bloodline, what does it matter? The mother is a slut. She doesn't know why. She might be a runaway slave. A child born to such a person will only dishonor the bloodline! Your Majesty You saw it before, that traitor acted ridiculously, and General Li’s grandson was killed by him. It’s pitiful that General Li gave a white-haired man to a black-haired man. It’s better to raise such a beast than to adopt him!”

After the words fell, the emperor who was originally in a daze suddenly stood up.

"Nonsense!" he shouted.

I didn't expect the emperor to be angry.

The emperor had always had a gentle temperament, but suddenly he became angry, raised his eyebrows and had a cold face. Combined with his dragon robe, he had a terrifying aura.

Princess Jinyu stiffened and subconsciously leaned forward: "Your Majesty, calm down."

Shangguan Kejiu and Princess Jinyu's entourage were almost lying on the ground.

It was dead quiet in the hall.

Until the emperor's voice came again.

"Nonsense." He shouted, "If you have your own blood, why bother taking another person's heir?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Shangguan Kejiu who was kneeling behind Princess Jinyu and sneered.

"His mother is not a noble girl."

Shangguan Kejiu leaned on the ground and trembled, tears streaming down his face.

With the emperor's words, he would never think of adopting Princess Jinyu again.

God, what a disaster. I didn’t expect that my mother would be involved! If I had known, I would have asked my father to divorce his wife and marry another one!

Princess Jinyu was angry and aggrieved, feeling that the emperor was confused.

"His mother, Dou from Henan, is not the legitimate daughter of the main wife, but she is still a lady from a famous family." She shouted, "There is no way she is better than a **** and a thief who acts as a concubine for others. That thief can't even find out her parentage. Maybe he's a sin slave—"

The emperor became even more angry after hearing this.

"So what if he is a sinful slave! If a son doesn't teach his father, what does he have to do with his mother's origin? But you, if you interfere with Shangguan's consort in teaching his son, if the child behaves humiliatingly, it's all because of you!"

After saying that, he pointed at Princess Jinyu.

"Go back and reflect behind closed doors. You are not allowed to enter the palace without being recruited!"

Princess Jinyu was ashamed and angry, and stood up: "Okay, okay, Liu Lang is now the emperor, and my brothers and sisters are no longer worthy of seeing each other in your eyes." After that, she turned around and ran out.

Shangguan Kejiu and his attendants hurriedly got up and stumbled out.

"Princess, princess, what should we do-"

They couldn't help but ask afterward.

Princess Jinyu turned around and raised her eyebrows to scold: "Shut up, if you dare to say another word, you will be shot with a stick immediately!"

Shangguan Kejiu and his attendants turned pale and covered their mouths with their hands, not even daring to make a sound.

Princess Jinyu turned around angrily and walked forward. After taking a few steps, she saw the **** Gao Twelve walking over with several imperial doctors.

Seeing Princess Jinyu, Gao Twelve and the imperial doctors hurriedly saluted her respectfully.

Princess Jinyu raised her head and ignored it. She stopped when she thought of something and waved to Gao Twelve.

Gao Twelve took a few steps closer.

"What happened?" Princess Jinyu asked in a low voice, "Did you ask Wang Degui to come here? What did you say to His Majesty? Why did Your Majesty suddenly lose his temper?"

Gao Twelve looked complicated and hesitated to speak.

Princess Jinyu sneered: "Now, the tall manager is not crying in front of me about the difficulties."

You can't hide this kind of thing. It's better not to make Princess Jinyu angry. Gao Twelve lowered his voice: "Princess, Bai Shi, is pregnant."

Princess Jinyu was stunned for a moment, unable to realize who the Bai family was.

"Xianfei." Gao Twelve reminded.

Princess Jinyu suddenly realized that the Bai family was relegated to the cold palace by the Yi clan!

Immediately shocked.

"Do you dare to steal someone in the cold palace?"

No wonder the emperor was furious.

Gao Twelve's face turned pale. Princess Jinyu was really talking nonsense. Do you think everyone is as ridiculous as her?

"Princess, be careful! Of course it's the dragon heir!"
