Chapter One Hundred and Five
Above the court, Li You finally made an order to pronounce the fate of the Sang clan. All members of the direct family were executed, and the collateral family were demoted to civilians. They lived permanently in the Imperial City for generations and cannot go out!
The courtiers were not surprised by the emperor’s decision. On the contrary, most of them felt that they were very kind, including Sang Ziyan, but the emperor’s decision also surprised him. Why didn’t you kill everyone? Why did he leave him alone? Isn't these two decisions somewhat contradictory? He thought that the emperor asked him to leave a person in order to leave some hope for the Sang clan, but now the emperor only dealt with the direct royal clan, how could he not be surprised.
But no matter how much doubt he can only put in his mind, he is no longer Sang Ziyan, but Mu Ziyan.
And the reason why Li You made such a decision was simply because this matter must have an end. As for the life and death of those people, she didn't care at all.
On Qin Ning’s birthday, everyone got together early on Qin Ning’s birthday. Although most of these people are not talkative people, Murong Xuanhe is active in it, and don’t think it’s too cold. In addition, the happy event that Luo Weiqing was pregnant, although everyone did not say it, the expression of envy was very obvious, and more or less said a few congratulations. Yuntai Ling personally took the pulse for Luo Weiqing and said Many things that need attention.
Everyone sat together, and the number of people was one more than the last small gathering, because Situ Hongyu, who was out of Lenggong, was also here. He wanted to sit in the corner not to attract everyone’s attention. After all, there were few people present. He was bullied, but he had no choice but to hold the child in his arms. As soon as he sat down, he caught the attention of Murong Xuanhe, and immediately attracted everyone’s attention, and everyone’s topic on the child never left, Situ Hongyu could only follow along without saying a word. It was very different from what he used to be. Everyone was aware of his changes. They didn’t say much but felt more relieved in their hearts. The previous Situ Hongyu really let him People feel a little disgusted.
"The emperor is here!" Feng Ying's voice immediately calmed everyone down, everyone knelt to meet each other, Li You saw Luo Weiqing also knelt on the ground, and immediately walked over and helped him up.
"Didn't you say that you won't be allowed to kneel anymore? Why are you not obedient?" Li You's face was stern, her reprimanding tone couldn't hide the taste of concern, she smiled softly, and said softly: "The emperor should not worry, minister. Concubine is very careful."
Although he didn't feel much, he had already slowed down his actions, and was extra careful whether he was walking or sitting.
"Just be careful, just sit down." Liyoula sat down with Luo Weiqing, everyone followed suit, but no one spoke first, even the liveliest Murong Xuanhe honestly shut his mouth. , It means being silent to the end.
Li You looked around at the crowd for a while, then slowly said: "Why don't you speak anymore, what you said just now, continue now."
Here are ten men, arguably the most important existence for her. Each of them has its own style, soft or rigid, gentle or introverted, cold and arrogant or easy-going. The difference between them is her. can feel that these people have occupied most of her time during her not too long time here.
"The emperor, just now the concubines were complimenting Jing'er, saying that Jing'er is very cute, and everyone smiles when they see him." Luo Weiqing thought that if his children could be so cute, it would be great.
"It's very cute, let me hug." Liyou walked to Situ Hongyu's side, and naturally took the baby from his hand, held it in her arms and teased, the expression on her face became softer.
Seeing the appearance of thousands of hers, everyone sighed in their hearts, the emperor really likes children.
Liyou teased the child for a while, and dinner was ready. Everyone changed places to sit down again, and Liyou returned the child to Situ Hongyu.
For this dinner, Li You did not drink, nor did he persuade everyone to drink again. Except for Luo Weiqing, everyone had a small drink. Only Murong Xuanhe killed him and did not drink. The facts last time are It is too shameful, Murong Xuanhe has the urge to hit the wall every time he thinks about it.
During the dinner, everyone talked lightly, not very enthusiastic, but everyone also gave Qin Ning a carefully prepared gift, Qin Ning accepted and thanked them one by one, and the always indifferent expression could not help. With a smile, the whole person became much softer.
After dinner, everyone dispersed. Li You did not stay in Fengqing Palace, but after giving Luo Weiqing a deep kiss, he chased Qin Ning's figure away.
Li You found Qin Ning on the way. Qin Ning did not return to her bedroom, but instead sent all the attendants away, walking alone, as if walking.
Li You hesitated when she saw Qin Ning. She felt that Qin Ning was rare and leisurely at this time. She didn't want to go out to disturb him, but because of this hesitation, Li You didn't show up, so Qin Ning used her tiptoe lightly. Qinggong flew out, and Liyou followed behind him. Qin Ning stopped after about a quarter of an hour. When Liyou looked at it, he found that it was a relatively quiet courtyard. It seemed that there was no one living in it. There were a few green plants beside it. The tree is quite strange.
Qin Ning stood still, drew a soft sword from his waist, tried a few sword moves slowly, and then gradually accelerated his movements!
Qin Ning's movements are swift and freely like running clouds and flowing water. His body is arbitrary, his sword moves sharply, and his posture is graceful. Every move has an indescribable charm. It is quite enjoyable to watch Liyou from the side. did not expect Qin Ning to have it. With such an interest, found such a quiet place to dance swords. If she hadn't followed, wouldn't have seen such a wonderful performance.
The magnificent sword moves tended to be gentle, and the fierceness returned to calm. After a quarter of an hour, Qin Ning put away the sword and quietly vomited.
"Papa!" With applause, Li You showed up, looked at Qin Ning with admiration and said: "Very good." For this Qin Ning who has been teased by herself many times, Li You feels a little bit Complicated, if possible, she hopes she can treat him slightly better.
"Who? Ah... the emperor!" Qin Ning first looked at the incoming person vigilantly, and realized that it was the emperor who let go of her vigilance, showing a look of surprise, "The concubine sees the emperor." Unexpectedly, it would happen on a whim. Meeting the emperor really surprised him.
"Menli, who did you learn your sword from? It's very good." Li You walked a few steps and asked like a chat.
Qin Ning hesitated for a moment, and seemed to be strange about the emperor's attitude at this time. He didn't understand why the emperor appeared here. Is it a coincidence or something else? Especially the tone of the emperor's speech to him was a little too peaceful, he always thought that the emperor didn't like him...
"If you return to the emperor, the swordsmanship of the concubine is from the family, but the concubine made some changes." But in any case, Qin Ning answered truthfully, although he didn't know what the emperor wanted and what his purpose was. , But even if you know it, these recent lessons are already profound enough. No one can stop what the emperor wants to do, and he certainly does.
"Qin Ning, today is your birthday. This is a gift I prepared. Open it to see if you like it or not." The reason she came after Qin Ning was to give gifts, although she had never given any gifts. , But she thinks that Qin Ning should like the gift she prepared.
Qin Ning took the gift to himself in surprise. This was not the first time the emperor gave him a gift. When he entered and left the palace, the emperor was also very kind to him. He didn’t care about those vulgar things at all, but now the emperor gave him gifts that made him feel very strange. He thought that since all the hypocritical things had passed, the emperor would have nothing to him, let alone think of it. I will receive a gift...
Qin Ning opened the box with some curiosity. Ling Xie's chill came out in an instant. Qin Ning's eyes widened, looking at the contents of the box with suspicion. It turned out to be a rare dagger! The dagger didn't have any luster, it was quiet. Lying there is daunting!
"What a dagger, is the emperor really going to give it to his concubines?" Qin Ning's tone was full of surprises, and he obviously liked the gift very much.
Li You nodded, quite satisfied with Qin Ning's response.
"Gifts, as long as you like them." Liyou gave Qin Ning an affirmative answer, of course it was given to him, otherwise it would still be a joke.
Of course Qin Ning liked it, but why did the emperor be so kind to him suddenly? Qin Ning looked at the emperor suspiciously, with a questioning expression in his eyes.
Of course, Li You also noticed Qin Ning's eyes, but she didn't understand what the eyes meant. She only felt that Qin Ning's eyes were a little weird when she looked at her, and she couldn't help asking, "What do you think, look at me like that."
Qin Ning retracted his gaze and didn't know how to speak, but he was not the kind of person who knew how to be smooth, so he hesitated and asked directly: "The emperor, why do you want to give gifts to your concubines, why are you so good to your concubines? Up?"
Qin Ning's question was too direct, and Liyou was taken aback when she asked, she felt that Qin Ning was different, and it made her feel a bit silly to ask.
"Don't like me being good to you? Like me to bully you?" Qin Ning felt a little stupid and naturally teased, and the corner of her mouth was filled with an evil smile.
Hearing the word bullying, Qin Ning naturally thought of the various things that had happened some time ago. He was thrown into the water and left at the bottom of the cliff. If he was not strong enough, if he even had a suicidal heart.
Thinking of this, Qin Ning's face turned pale, and there was a stubborn look in Li You's eyes.
Li You noticed Qin Ning's changes, and knew that he had touched Qin Ning's weakness again, and sighed helplessly in her heart.
"Qin Ning, I'm just joking, why always take it seriously?"
