Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 248 The minister is willing to die

Mrs. Yu married to the Hou Mansion when she was a teenager, and has been with Li Shen for more than 20 years. When the old Hou Ye Li Zhijie was in southern Xinjiang and Li Shen was in Beijing as a hostage, the two of them spent time together in the capital. those days.

   They are a couple in adversity and have a good relationship.

  Because of this, when Li Xin entered Beijing, Mrs. Yu reacted so much and drove him out of the capital abruptly.

  Li Shen patted Madam Yu's back slowly, and said softly, "It's alright, I'll be alright when I come back."

After Mrs. Yu cried a lot, the stagnation in her heart dissipated a lot, and she woke up. She wiped her tears and choked: "Master Hou, you shouldn't have come back..."

   Li Shen smiled reluctantly at her: "I don't come back, what will you do?"

   "There are so many old soldiers in the mansion, what will they do?"

   Mrs. Yu whispered: "Master Hou, you are in the southern border, we can still be safer."

  Li Shen shook his head: "I'm in the southern border, and it's not very different from Li Yan's in the southern border, but Li Yan is not suitable for staying in the capital. Let him be in charge for a while, and you will all die in the capital."

   "Second Uncle, he is too reckless."

  Mrs. Yu gritted her teeth: "And that Li Xin, the second uncle is reckless, but without him this time, the emperor would have died long ago, and Chun'er would not have suffered such a catastrophe!"

   "After Chun'er died, he still came to the house to show off his power, which is especially hateful!"

  These resentments have been held in her heart for a long time, but these words cannot be said to anyone, nor to Li Yan. At this time, Li Shen is back, and she can finally spit it out.

  Li Shen patted her on the back, and said slowly, "I know, I know."

   In fact, the reason why Li Xin worked so hard that day was also to survive. If he didn't give up his life to stop those assassins, all the Yulin Wei Youying, including him, would be killed by the three tribes of Yi!

   That kind of thing, of course, has to fight hard.

   Li Shen stayed in the Hou Mansion for an hour, when a servant came to report.

   "Master Hou, Eunuch Chen from the palace is here and said he wants to invite you into the palace."

   Li Shen frowned and said, "Understood, you ask Eunuch Chen to wait for a while, I'll go later."

Li Shen turned back and took Madam Yu's hand, and whispered: "Madam, things have come to this point, you must take care of yourself, don't worry too much, since I'm back in the capital, the capital's affairs are all up to me. Carry it on your shoulders, and you can rest at home with peace of mind."

  Mrs. Yu was a little worried and said, "Master Hou...you are entering the palace now..."

Li Shen patted the back of Mrs. Yu's hand lightly, and said softly: "It's okay, if he wants to kill me, he can do it the moment I enter the city, and I'm still fine, so there's no problem. "

Mrs. Yu gritted her teeth and nodded: "Then I'll go find you a court dress and put it on."

  Li Shen shook his head and said, "You take a good rest. It's good to have someone else do these things."

   Mrs. Yu said with tears: "These days, the concubine has been unable to sleep all night long. When she closes her eyes, she looks like Chun'er. Now that Lord Hou is back, the concubine finally has support."

   Li Shen also sighed: "I didn't think about sending Li Yan here."

  Originally, Li Yan was sent here to deal with Li Xin's repeated attacks. In Li Shen's opinion, a Li Yan was enough to deal with Li Xin's hairy boy no matter what.

  No one thought things would turn out like this.

   Li Shen sighed, pulled Madam Yu into a chair and sat down, then went back to his room and changed into a court dress, walking towards the main hall of the Pingnan Marquis Mansion.

   Chen Ju, the eunuch, has been waiting for a while.

  Li Shen cheered up, bowed his head and clasped his fist to the big eunuch: "Grand Duke."

Because of the reason why the Pingnan Hou Mansion stabbed the emperor, Chen Ju couldn't really show a good face at this time, he could only smile reluctantly: "Li Houye, Your Majesty has been waiting for you all morning, and there is not even today's court meeting. Go, you quickly follow our family into the palace."

  Li Shen nodded and said, "I have the Grand Duke Lao, I am about to enter the palace to face the Holy Spirit."

The Marquis of Pingnan was not far from the imperial city. The two entered the palace in less than half an hour. After a while, Chen Ju took Li Shen to the entrance of a warm pavilion in the apse of Changle Palace. The eunuch's voice was lukewarm.

   "Master Hou, Your Majesty is inside, come in quickly."

  Li Shen took a deep breath and stepped inside.

   It was already the end of September, and the weather was getting cooler. In the warm hall of Changle Palace, a fire had been set up. The emperor of Chengde was wearing a heavy robe and was sitting beside a large fire to bake a fire.

   Since the injury, he has become a little afraid of the cold.

  Li Shen took two steps forward and fell to the ground respectfully.

   "My minister, Li Shen, meet your majesty!"

  The emperor of Chengde, who was wearing a robe and roasting the fire, looked up at Li Shen, and then smiled: "Are you back?"

   Li Shen bowed his head again: "I heard that Your Majesty was seriously injured, and immediately rushed back without stopping."

   "It turned out that I came back because I was injured."

  The Emperor Chengde glanced at Li Shen lightly: "I thought you came back to Beijing because Li Chun died."

  Li Shen took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Both."

  The emperor of Chengde was noncommittal, just waved his hand lightly: "Chen Ju, bring him a stool."

   Chen Ju, the eunuch, immediately lowered his head, moved a wooden pier and placed it next to the big stove.

  The emperor of Chengde pointed to the wooden pier and coughed: "You sit."

  Li Shen hesitated for a while, but sat up cautiously.

  The emperor narrowed his eyes and said, "Chen Ju, you all go out."

  Chen Ju hesitated for a moment, then said, "Your Majesty, is this old slave going out too?"

   "All out."

  The Emperor laughed: "Could it be that you, an old fellow, can still be the opponent of General Zhu Guo?"

  Chen Ju hesitated for a moment, then bent over and led the palace people to retreat. In just a moment, only the emperor and Li Shen were left in this warm palace.

  Without outsiders, the emperor of Chengde seemed to be unable to bear the cold and tightened his robe.

   "Li Shen, I am very angry."

   Li Shen took a deep breath and knelt in front of the Emperor Chengde.

   "Your Majesty, this minister doesn't know anything about this in the southern border. It's all... all those people... messing around."

  The matter has come to this point. In the absence of outsiders, denying it again is an insult to everyone's intelligence. The emperor of Chengde disperses everyone to hear Li Shen tell the truth.

  Li Shen is very smart, of course he understood what the emperor meant, so he knelt down and pleaded guilty.

  The emperor was expressionless: "I'm still very angry."

  General Zhuguo knelt on the ground, and after being silent for a while, he said abruptly, "So Li Chun should be damned."

   "It's not just Li Chun that deserves to die, people like Li Yan deserve to die."

  The emperor looked at Li Shen coldly.

   "According to the actions of your Li family, the three Yi clans and the Jiu clan are not too much!"

  Li Shen fell silent, did not continue to answer, just knelt quietly on the ground: "Your Majesty...I have no intention of harming you."

  The emperor said indifferently: "But I am dying."

   "This time the minister entered the capital to quell His Majesty's anger. The minister and His Majesty have known each other for nearly 40 years. His Majesty regards the minister as a brother, and the minister regards His Majesty as an elder brother. The minister has no intention of harming His Majesty!"

   Li Shen said with tears: "Although Li Yan did this, he is my righteous brother, and what he did is what the minister did, and the minister would like to die to quell His Majesty's remaining anger!"

  The emperor of Chengde quietly looked at Li Shen, who was kneeling on the ground.

   with disdain.

   At noon, I squinted for a while, and then dragged it to the present...
