Chapter 691 Sister Lingxi will never marry anyone
When Bai Heran arrived at Zhaoren Palace, he did not disturb the servants in the palace, but only walked in slowly with Winter Snow and Bai Yanyu. As soon as he entered, he heard the old emperor and Empress Chen’s idea of Hongwang and Jun Lingxi, and immediately felt a chill.
Are these two people thinking too much? Especially Queen Chen, who seemed to have planned everything, but have she ever thought about the feelings of Hongwang and Jun Lingxi?
Let’s look at Hongwang and Jun Lingxi again. Well, these two people seem to have a good feeling. Jun Lingxi wants to take off the steps on her head, but Hongwang doesn’t let her go. They pull back and forth, and they pull Jun Lingxi’s face red.
Bai Yanyu followed her second sister with a shocked look on her face. Really, fake? What kind of physique is this? Why is it not enough to attract a prince by one or two? Another young master can actually attract a princess? She is also a lady of the Bai family. Why does this physique turn around when she is here? Then when Bai Zhenzhen's turn is born, she is back? Is it not fair to do this?
In depressed time, Bai Heran had already walked in. In winter, snow pulled Bai Yanyu and then hurriedly followed.
Only then did people realize that Bai Heran was coming, and Jun Mulin waved to her first: "Come on Ran Ran, come and sit next to me."
Bai Heza ignored him and walked over to salute the emperor and the queen first. Bai Yanyu naturally bowed with him. However, compared to Bai Heran, Bai Yanyu was much more restrained, and even tripped when he knelt down and almost fell down.
The old emperor was naturally happy when he saw Bai Heran coming. Although the third brother's death also made him sad, it was his own order, and it was the third brother's fault, so no one could blame him.
This man, as soon as he gets older, has to learn to persuade himself. The burden on him is not a family, but the whole world. He cannot be too emotional, and cannot be blindly concerned about the father-son relationship even though he knows that his son is hopeless. That is not kindness, that is cruelty, and that is irresponsible to the subjects of the world.
In a high position, one has to face many choices. Although such choices are usually painful and are just like cutting off one's flesh, he cannot get rid of them and must bear it. Family affection can no longer be measured simply by blood. Many times, what is needed is to weigh the pros and cons.
"Aran, are you coming from Defu Palace?" the old emperor asked her, "What's the situation there now?"
Bai Heran nodded and said calmly: "Everything is fine, the Empress Dowager will live for a hundred years."
The old emperor is very satisfied with this result. I don’t care how you vent your revenge, but your life must be kept. This is the rule.
"Get up quickly, I'm talking about Hongwang with your mother." After saying that, he looked back and wanted to tell who this person was? Then he thought that he had heard that the third lady of the Bai family had also entered the palace, so Bai Heran called in. So he didn't ask, after all, Bai Yanyu was a concubine's daughter, so how could he be the emperor's son talk to a concubine's daughter? Of course, Bai Zhenzhen is an exception.
Bai Heran stood up and before he could speak, Jun Mulin responded first: "I don't agree!"
As soon as this was said, Queen Chen became anxious: "Which group are you from? What are you mixed with? Speak again! Do you agree?"
Jun Mulin looked bitter, "I don't agree with it again. Mother, can't you change your plans? There are so many great heroes in Shangdu City. Do you look at them longer and don't you stare at each other?"
"Why did I see each other stare at each other? I have seen the so-called heroes in the capital for so many years. Didn't they not like anyone else? Hongwang was later, and it was the latest discovery of this palace. I think he is very good. Isn't it just that there is a gap for more than ten years? This is easy to make up for it. It can be reshaped as we like. With us watching from the side, he will not be biased. Lin'er, you shouldn't have the same idea as your father, thinking about marrying Lingxi away, right?"
"No, no, no, absolutely no, there is no idea." Jun Mulin waved his hand quickly, "At this point, my mother and I are unified."
"Chu'er, where are you?" Queen Chen asked the ninth prince who had not spoken.
The ninth prince quickly said, "The son minister is also unified with the mother in this regard."
Emperor Tianhe glanced at Queen Chen, "What do you mean? Why did I want to marry Lingxi far away? When did I say I want to marry Lingxi far away? It was as if you were Lingxi's biological mother, and I was not her biological father."
"You really haven't tried to marry Lingxi far away?" Queen Chen looked sarcastic, "Hmph, do you believe this? I don't know you yet? The reason why I haven't moved now is because Lingxi has not yet reached the age of fifteen. Once Lingxi is fifteen years old, I don't believe that you will not have any bad ideas. Otherwise, where will the daughters in front of you go?"
The old emperor was speechless. The daughter in front and the daughter in front naturally married the marriages of various foreign countries. Especially the second daughter, now her life and death are unknown, and Dong Qin even did rituals for her.
"But I really have never had the idea of Lingxi." The old emperor sighed, and remembered his second daughter, whose life and death were unknown. "The prince took over the throne and the princess was married. This is the rule of Dongqin since its establishment. Every monarch did not think about changing in the past and was unable to change. The soldiers went to the battlefield to sacrifice their lives. Why can the royal family enjoy their success without paying the price? If a war can be shaken by one marriage and make peace, how many soldiers can be saved from the battlefield? If the royal family does not do that, they will lose the people's hearts over time, which is a consequence that no generation of dynasty wants to see."
Emperor Tianhe looked at Empress Chen, "Being in the royal family does not only sit firmly in the deep palace to command the world. Most of the time, we are helpless, and give up. For the sake of peace and stability, we have to give up our flesh and blood. We do not blame anything, but only blame them for being born in the royal family. They have the responsibility and obligation to contribute themselves to all living in the world."
He pointed at Jun Mulin again, "It's not only the princess who can contribute, but the princes are the same. Others only see Lin'er invincible, but only see him returning triumphantly again and again. But who can carefully think about the price of this victory? Who can put himself in his shoes to experience Lin'er's safety? Who can think that every time Lin'er goes on a battle, I haven't had a good night's sleep?"
Tianhe Dijiu had drunk too much and started talking too much. Jun Lingxi also pulled Hongwang to sit next to Tianhe Dijiu, listened carefully to him, and even gave the wine at the table to her father.
The old emperor raised his neck and dried the wine. Then he looked at his daughter with love and sympathy.
"Last time Lin'er went to the battle, the last time he sent back was the news of his death. No one could understand what I felt like at that time. My beloved youngest son died. From now on, I will never see this son again. I have the heart to die at that time. But can I die? Not only can I die, I have to sit in the court and preside over Lin'er's mourning himself. I cannot fall down because I am the backbone. As long as I am here, the court will not be in chaos and the gods can be at peace."
The old emperor sighed again, remembering many things, "So when Duke Wen proposed to get a ghost marriage for Lin'er, I agreed without thinking. Because I didn't know how to compensate Lin'er at that time. He started practicing martial arts since he could walk, read military books when he knew how to write, and started going to the battlefield when he could ride a horse. People only saw him winning battles again and again, and only I saw his wounds all over his body."
Jun Mulin was a little uncomfortable with the old man's sensationality and waved his hand and said, "It's just a small injury. What kind of man is he who doesn't have a few scars?"
"Barring!" the old emperor was furious, "Your son, you don't take the scar seriously, but I feel sorry for you. You forgot that you were so tired that you fell asleep in the bathtub? You forgot that you had been sleeping for seven days and seven nights in a row? I care about what you don't care, because you are my blood, and I can't bear to live and die."
The old emperor wiped his face, "But the same thing, no matter how reluctant you are, you will be willing to give up. Why can other people's children go to war, and the royal children will be spoiled? Such a dynasty will not last long. I cannot be a king of a country that is destroyed, so no matter how reluctant I am, I will let you go. No matter how reluctant I am, I will marry one daughter after another to a foreign country. You don't understand my suffering."
Empress Chen was silent. She knew that the old emperor was right.
As the queen, she must advance and retreat with the emperor, of course she must give up on the small and big ones, and of course she cannot only consider herself and not consider the overall situation. She is not only Jun Lingxi, one daughter, but all the people in the world are her subjects. She cannot only be responsible for Jun Lingxi, one daughter, but she must be responsible for millions of daughters in the Eastern Qin territory.
If a daughter's marriage can protect millions of daughters from a long distance, why can't she bear it? Although this kind of willingness is more painful than cutting flesh and heartbreaking, she has no choice but to have a heartbreak.
"I am just talking about it, you should take the big idea yourself." Queen Chen sighed, as a concession.
Jun Lingxi finally understood the reason for her father's feelings, and couldn't help but be shocked, "Is it because the foreign country proposed to marry? And it was me who asked for the name of the name?"
The old emperor quickly shook his head, "No, it's just that your mother is worried about being too worried about her father marrying you far away in the future."
"Well, will you marry me far away?" After asking this, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I am Princess Dongqin. I have the responsibility and obligation to protect our people. If there is really such a day, I will not retreat. I can do anything that the second emperor can do, so can I."
"Lingxi, don't talk nonsense." Queen Chen couldn't hold back and scolded Jun Lingxi.
"It's not nonsense." Jun Lingxi was quite stubborn, "This is the ending I foresee since I was sensible. As a royal princess, my fate is like this. If I can't escape, I won't escape. Anyway, I'm mentally prepared."
Who would have thought that at this moment, Hongwang, who had been sitting and not talking, suddenly spoke and said, "No, Lingxi sister will not marry anyone!"
