"Wouldn't it be hard to bear such a bad reputation, have no one ask for her to marry, and die at home?" Mrs. Song's eyes turned red, "Not to mention, she might not survive that time! While she is still alive, The tone is to fulfill her wish, to make her happy for a while, and to be buried in the imperial mausoleum after death! In this way, she can rest in peace under the nine springs, and our family can also breathe a sigh of relief and not end up like this. The laughingstock of the capital!"
"But what if he refuses?" Qi Zuo was worried, "Mother may not know much about his temperament, but she always tells the truth!"
"Sometimes he can be called stubborn!" Qi You added, "Even eight cows can't get him back from something he's determined for!"
"If eight cows can't be pulled back, what about the eight aristocratic families?" Mrs. Song gritted her teeth, "We Yao'er are not the only ones who were humiliated today! There are also Yue'er, Zhen'er, Pan'er and the others! Princess Mingzhen is easy to get along with. Really? Why do you think she will show up today? Aren’t you just trying to take advantage of this opportunity to fulfill her dream of entering the palace to serve the king?"
When the two brothers heard this, their eyes lit up!
"If we gather the power of these five families, plus those ministers who previously opposed not accepting concubines, we can actually fight!"
"Then get ready for battle!" Mrs. Song straightened her clothes and looked at the majestic imperial city in the distance. "This throne was won by everyone with our help. It's not too much to share a cup of soup!"
Compared with the Gao and Qi families who were determined to win, the Zhao family and the Xue family seemed peaceful in comparison.
Of course, it was just relative. When they learned that something happened to their daughter, the two wives held each other's hands and cried. The tears never stopped along the way.
Both families came from poor families and were close friends from the same hometown. They were very close to each other on weekdays. Today they were planning to have a drink together. After hearing the bad news, they got into the same carriage and hurried to the palace.
Zhao He and Xue Hao originally had not high official positions. Because they helped Xiao Lin and had helped Su Li before, after the court was stabilized, Xiao Lin promoted Zhao He to be the Minister of Rites and Xue Hao to be the Minister of Punishments. The new king valued them so much. There were many rewards, and the two of them were extremely grateful. Therefore, they felt extremely conflicted at this time. .z.
On the one hand, I am worried about my daughter, and I also have resentment in my heart, but this resentment only arises, and I can't help but reflect on myself.
To be honest, Zhao Pan and Xue Zhen suffered an unreasonable disaster today.
Although the two younger daughters wanted to accompany him, they had a low family background and had no illusions before. Therefore, after they later learned that they would not accept concubines, the gap was not that big.
The two of them were involved because of their sisterly relationship, but Xiao Lin was polite to them, didn't say anything harsh, and even carried them to the palace for treatment. They couldn't find anything wrong with this.
As for the rumors that Xu Qiang was sent by Su Li, the two of them didn't believe it.
If she really took action, these girls would probably die without knowing how. How could they let Xu Qiang do such a stupid thing in front of everyone?
Even if they don't believe in her character, they still have to believe in her mind!
Therefore, on the way to the palace, in addition to worrying about their daughters' lives, the two of them discussed where the poison came from.
The people sent by Mingzhen to report the news were adding fuel to the fire and alluding to Su Li. Later, when the internal guards came to report, they were more objective. They did not care about who was right or wrong, but only explained the whole story clearly.
The two of them combined the two aspects of information and unanimously set their sights on Mingzhen.
What Mingzhen did before was too cruel.
They really can't help but think too much about this kind of person with a criminal record.
"This girl has been cruel and ruthless since she was a child. In order to get jealous, she even sold her to a brothel. Today, for her own selfish desires, it is not impossible to use our daughter's life as a stepping stone, right?" Xue Hao murmured.
"But I heard that she was also poisoned!" Zhao He frowned, "Is it possible that she poisoned herself?"
"But the poison on her body must not be real poison. At least it will not cause death or cause serious harm to herself!" Xue Hao guessed, "But what purpose does she want to achieve by doing this? ?」
"If something happens to Gao Qi and the two girls, His Highness will definitely give an explanation. This explanation will most likely fulfill the wishes of the two girls..." Zhao He's mind was spinning like a flywheel, "They can do it, so can Mingzhen! Five lives.
, coupled with the face of being trampled on the ground, it is difficult for His Highness to refuse such a request, so Mingzhen naturally entered the palace..."
"Others may die soon..." At this point, Xue Hao's heart ached and his eyes filled with tears. He clenched his hands and forced himself to calm down.
Things are already like this, and it's useless to be sad anymore. Find out the real culprit and take revenge for your daughter. This is what a father should do.
"Others are dead, and only Mingzhen will be lucky enough to survive..." Zhao He continued, his teeth chattering loudly, "So, her move killed two birds with one stone. She not only eliminated her competitors, but also stepped on them." Successfully ascended the throne with their corpses!"
"What a poisonous heart!" Xue Hao's eyes were also split open, "I hope this is just our guess! Otherwise, I will kill her to avenge my Zhen'er even if I risk my life!"
"Me too!" Zhao He said solemnly, "This evil-doing princess deserves retribution!"
As he spoke, the Imperial City was already in front of him, and it was at the entrance of the Imperial City.
Carriages were not allowed to enter the inner city, so the two families lifted the curtains and got out of the car, slowly moving forward.
At this time, someone was being helped out of the carriage in front of him. One of them had white hair and looked haggard. Even the walkway was trembling.
Zhao He and Xue Hao saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Mrs. Hou!"
Mrs. Song nodded towards them, her eyes falling on the female family members behind them.
Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Han, cried in the carriage and fainted twice. At this time, she was helped out by her maid.
Mrs. Xue, Mrs. Zhong, was not much better. Her eyes were swollen like walnuts, and her face was full of sadness and hesitation.
When a sad person meets a sad person, the sadness is doubled. When they look at each other, tears fill their eyes.
At this time, there was a commotion in the carriage at the front, but the eldest princess inside cried so hard that she convulsed again. The maids were in a hurry, pinching her and rubbing her chest. She just breathed a sigh of relief and woke up leisurely. .
When she woke up, she saw a circle of people surrounding her, all saluting her: "I have met Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess!"
"Sister Song, you are here too..." The eldest princess's eyes fell on Mrs. Song, her eyes blurred with tears and her heart ached.
They both lost their husbands, so they felt sympathy for each other. At this time, the white-haired man was about to send the black-haired man away. Before the eldest princess could finish her words, her throat became choked, and her tears fell down like broken beads.
"Good sister, don't cry!" Mrs. Song held her hand, "What's the use of crying? We should cheer up and make a plan for our daughter!"
