Xu Zhilan's decisive way of speaking obviously shocked Xu's mother.
After a long time, Xu's mother said, "Why can't I have children? You are the wife of His Highness Prince Liang."
Hearing this, Xu Zhilan interrupted directly, "So what? I have no feelings for him, and he has no feelings for me. Why do we have children? Will the children be happy in this environment?"
Hearing Xu Zhilan's question, Xu's mother turned pale instantly. If it weren't for the fact that Prince Liang was still present, Xu's mother would have started a fight with him on the spot.
"What is happiness and unhappiness? Isn't it natural to get married and have children?"
"It's a matter of course. If my mother says it is a matter of course, I will marry someone I don't love. If my mother says that he is not suitable, I can only be separated from him."
"I will not have children with a man other than Tim Yip. I can't decide who I will marry, but I also have the right not to have children! I have already drank Aconitum Aconite Decoction in March. Mother should know about the medicine. What do you do?" When Xu Zhilan said this, there was a mocking smile between her eyebrows.
She was like a drowning person who not only refused to accept the life-saving straw, but only pulled the life-saving straw together into the sea.
Xu's mother knew that her daughter had always been rebellious, but she did not expect that the other party would be so rebellious.
What kind of medicine is Aconitum Aconite Decoction? It is not only a contraceptive medicine, but also a medicine that can harm the body.
After hearing that Xu Zhilan actually protested to herself in such a self-destructive way, Xu's mother felt that she was almost unable to stand. She was angry and heartbroken. When Xu Zhilan's words just fell, she almost didn't think about it. Then he slapped Xu Zhilan directly on the face.
With a loud snap, Xu Zhilan's entire face was turned sideways.
Xu Yong, who was waiting outside the door, heard that something was wrong in the house and rushed in immediately.
Then he saw Xu Zhilan, half of her face red and swollen, staring at Xu Zhilan with a look of hatred: "You hit me! You keep beating me. Just beat me to death. After all, I was born to you and am your private property." !”
Mrs. Xu had seen this situation before, and after a long while, she managed to hold on to the table. Xu Yong on the side obviously realized that his sister was also beaten by her mother, but her mother was also angry with her sister.
He wanted to persuade, but found that it was useless to persuade anyone, so after opening his mouth for a moment, he closed it again lonely. ..
He just came over quickly to support his mother, but after hearing Xu Zhilan's words, Mrs. Xu's heart was so angry that it hurt.
If it weren't for Xu Yong stroking her back, she would have almost lost her breath.
After a long while, she looked at Xu Zhilan coldly and said, "Who is Ye Jintian? Can we just watch him send you into that pit of fire? Besides, what's wrong with His Highness Prince Liang? He has been there for so many years. Have I treated you badly? You can't win over a man's heart, and you are still looking for death! Okay! Since you want to die! Then you go and die! I won't care about you anymore."
After saying these words, Xu's mother was obviously very angry, and then she didn't care to talk to Zhao Nianze about his estrangement and the children in the estrangement.
Xu Yong turned around and looked at his sister worriedly. His sister was very delicate and would cry for a long time at the slightest thing. He was afraid that his sister would be sad for a long time because of these words.
He wanted to comfort Xu Zhilan with a few words.
However, Xu's mother on the other side was obviously very angry. She turned around and walked out the door.
Xu Yong looked at Xu Zhilan in embarrassment, then at his mother, and then finally just said, "Alan, what my mother said are all angry words, don't be surprised."
However, Xu Zhilan's expression was very calm, and she whispered, "I know."
Such calm only made Xu Yong feel vaguely uneasy.
But he couldn't tell what the uneasiness was for a while.
Watching her mother disappear into the night, it was obvious that her angry mother was the one who needed to be comforted the most, compared to her calm sister.
After Xu Yong said those words, he hurriedly chased after his mother.
After Xu Zhilan finished arguing with her mother, she seemed to be okay. She looked at Zhao Nianze who was standing aside and looked at her, and then whispered, "Why is Your Highness looking at me like this? Isn't it Zhirou?"
Did the girl just give birth? Don't you go take care of her? "
Hearing Xu Zhilan's words, Zhao Nianze felt a little moved in his heart.
He whispered, "That aconite soup, please stop drinking it. Although I can't let you marry Ye Jintian, when I get to that position, I will give you your freedom. By then, you can do whatever you want." Okay, you can marry anyone you want, I will protect you."
Xu Zhilan didn't expect that Zhao Nianze would say such words to her, and her heart moved slightly.
The future he mentioned was indeed what she yearned for.
In fact, it had been so long. Even though her feelings for Ye Jintian were strong at the beginning, they had actually faded away. She couldn't even remember that person's face now.
So Xu's mother thought she was so crazy because of Ye Jintian, but it wasn't the main reason.
She is free-spirited and rebellious by nature.
All she wanted was a life of unrestrained freedom, and all she wanted was a life in which she could decide her own life choices.
It's a pity that because she is a waiting girl and because of their plans, her life has never been free. Like a bird in a cage, a sparrow with broken wings.
The happiest period of her life was just the period with Ye Jintian. She could no longer remember what that person looked like, but she remembered that he had brought her a feeling of freedom.
But then he was gone, and before she could get over the emotional pain, she became a victim of the powerful marriage between her parents.
And King Liang was just like her. He also had someone he loved, but he was luckier than herself. She was separated from the person she loved.
And the person he likes can at least become his concubine.
Sometimes looking at their inseparable appearance, she didn't feel envious, just jealous.
However, such good times did not last long. How could his mother allow a woman who was not from the Xu family to be favored and give birth to a prince first?
Therefore, Su Zhirou's accident was not surprising at all.
She watched the incident with a cold eye, but she didn't expect that Prince Liang arrived as promised and took the person away.
Later, when Prince Liang came to make an appointment with her, she just thought that he had finally lost that person around him, and that he was as pitiful as herself.
That's why she agreed to be a superficial couple with Prince Liang and cover for him.
Of course, when she later learned the truth and knew that she was the woman's cover, she actually didn't care anymore.
Anyway, this is the way she is for the rest of her life, and she can't do anything to change it.
Later, she indulged in pleasure, surrendered, and became the handle of others. In fact, these steps were not done by herself.
She knew there was no hope for her.
Therefore, she could laugh calmly at Zhao Nianze's words, "Since His Highness has agreed, he cannot go back on his word. Please protect me."
When she said this, although her lips were smiling, her eyes were extremely serious.
Zhao Nianze was stared at like this, and he unconsciously replied as if he had made some oath, "As long as you don't do anything illegal or treasonous, I can protect you."
After hearing Zhao Nianze's words, Xu Zhilan stopped taking his words.
She only then said, "Your Highness, I am very greedy. In addition to wanting you to protect me, I also want you to forgive my mother for what she said to you today, and I am actually sorry about Zhirou." , can you forgive our family, even if your official position is reduced, but I want to ask you to spare their lives. This is the only thing I want to ask you most. "
Hearing this, Zhao Nianze couldn't help but whisper, "What's wrong with you today? Why do you say so many words of entrustment?"
"It's not a word of entrustment, but I am really happy for His Highness. After all, His Highness has finally become the crown prince. But on the other hand, I am also afraid that when His Highness comes up, he will liquidate my parents. After all, they have indeed offended His Highness. He has also done many bad things.”
Hearing Xu Zhilan's words, Zhao Nianze only said, "I'm not such a stingy person. Okay, you should go to bed early. Don't think so much. You have to attend the Ninth Prince's banquet tomorrow with me."
Xu Zhilan only said "Hello" cooperatively, and looked at
Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, Zhao Nianze had no intention of spending the night at Prince Liang's Mansion, but he saw that Xu Zhilan's mood did not seem to have much fluctuation.
So he left directly from here.
But Xu Zhilan did not wait until Zhao Nianze left as usual, then turned around and left.
She only waited until Zhao Nianze's carriage disappeared into the night, and then she signaled the door to close.
After the door was closed, Xu Zhilan also returned to the inner room.
But as soon as she arrived at the inner room, Xu Zhilan saw that the guard in black had been waiting in her inner room for a long time.
She obviously didn't really want to see him, so she just took off the earrings on her hands and asked without raising her head, "Why are you here again? Aren't everything ready? Just put it on me."
Then she seemed to have thought of something. She raised her eyebrows jokingly and said, "What? Is it possible that your master is afraid that I will run away? That's why you are here to watch over me?"
The man in black did not answer Su Zhirou's question. He just glanced at Su Zhirou quietly and then disappeared from here.
But Su Zhirou knew that he had not left his room.
She didn't bother to look where the man was hiding. Anyway, it didn't make any difference whether he died tomorrow or today.
It's just that she didn't expect that what she just thought of as a joke might actually become a problem that worries that person.
The next day, early morning.
With the largest hot spring pool in the suburbs of Beijing, a grand banquet was being held in the Lishan Palace on a holiday.
The courtiers don't have to get up at midnight to go to court, let alone go home covered with stars and moon.
